take the atf and you recognize matt gaetz who was in the front row for proposing from earlier this year a piece of legislation that would have in january of this year he founded the atf and abolish its existence which is a perfectly fine way of going about doing it. you have people that have competing interests that aren't able to properly oversee an administrative state that reports to the duly elected chief executive the country which is why is the next u.s. president if elected we will shut down the bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms one of the agencies that has been most toxic and its misappropriations of funds. thisia is one where and i quote this is directly from within the agency the office of personnel management itself. this is an agency so corrupt and this is their words not mine the atf has demonstrated and i quote total disregard for federal humande capitol logic -- law practices and agency with their stock regulations so far-reaching between its constitutional scope it can't be reformed. thee correct answer we will once again and we are starting to see a pattern here,

and talked about no harm no foul with lying on application, atf, the u.s.said we will use all tools available to us to pursue those lying when buying a gun. that is 10 years in prison for a reason. if you want other examples, i'll conclude by mentioning a few names who have served multiple years in prison for lying on application. including eddie morrison, joshua moseley. hunter is not accepted right now for being prosecuted, for taking this long. >> great comparisons and advice. it is not just nancy pelosi having a problem with the kamala question. the latest top dem if the president should keep the vp on the ticket. could pay off a car in a few years. now, car loan rates have climbed to 15% and can take five years to pay off. so get this, the newday 100 va cash out loan. our lower rates let you use the equity in your home to pay off high rate car and truck loans. and you can save $500 a month.

specifically what hunter biden is charged with is making false statements on the atf form someone has to fill out to buy a gun. what prosecutors say was false is he checked the box saying he was not addicted to or using any illegal drugs. and hunter biden has written in a memoir he was addicted to using crack cocaine. the statements was given to the gun dealer and the third count he was charged with possessing the gun while using or being addict today the illegal drugs. so three serious counts, and as you say this is big reversal from what he had a deal where he would have avoided any prosecution on the gun charge if he had abided to certain condition. so what has changed since then is that, you know, there were questions there about that deal. the judge wasn't sure it was constitutional the way it was structured, and then a number of republicans have called it a sweetheart deal. they were very critical of it. after the judge said she wasn't sure of it, she asked the prosecution and biden's team to see if they could amend it. then from there the u.s. attorney david weiss who was appoi
