first world war, um, through to the nack bar in 1948, not to mention the atrocities of the king david hotel where they blew up british. numerous terrorist attacks and then you go on through all the wars that we've seen subsequently, they are war crimes, but these are war crimes that aren't exclusive to israelis, the the feature of the structure under which we live, so whether you're talking about mosul, during the iraq war or what they did in libya, syria, i mean in syria they were targeting civilians, women, babies, using them as as hostages and and don't tell me, that was isis or daesh, it was basically there another weapon in nato's army to destabilize countries, so israel is just focal point for the structures abusive destruction, and it is terrible, and one ought to protest, i'm not saying people shouldn't protest, but protest isn't. to stop it, the only way to stop is when we turn our backs on those institutions which are most of them, which have failed us, we should stop paying taxes, we should stop voting for mps, they're all just actors in a giant theater of destruction. okay, well

hotels in the country? >> so we have really taken an opportunity, david, to go to the ftc when deals are discussed publiclyrs has been since the middle of october, it's not unusual for the ftc to want to begin an investigation, so we proactively engaged with them and had a meeting with them last week, very substantive questions and productive meeting. filing the hsr notification today, it's a statutory process and begins the calendar. we'll meet going forward to get clarity around that. when you look at the hotel services market, the combined share of the two companies is only going to be 17% of the rooms, and those rooms are owned by small business franchisees who control their own pricing. the consumer is not going to be impacted here. the franchisees set the pricing and the pricing strategy. this is not the dollar menu or $5 footlongs. our franchisees can set prices as they see fit and do on a regular basis, daily and ultimately hourly, as you look at the marketplace. >> suffice it to say you are confident you will be able to get past an antitrust review here. they do and can take a long time, even when

girlfriends, luxury hotels, rental properties, exotic cars, clothing and items of a personal nature, everything but his taxes. these charges were not really a surprise because special counsel davidt in august that he would likely charge hunter for tax crimes in california or washington, d.c. he chose california because the statute of limitations has run out in d.c., and hunter has called it home since 2018. >> did he file a false return? >> did he file -- >> i'm ending where i started. yes or no. >> it's not a yes or no. because you want to drill -- no, of course it's not. in order to file a false return that's actionable, the following things depending on the statute has to occur. it has to be willful, deliberate, hunter was late in filing and paying taxes in certain years. that is a given. as are millions and millions of americans who do the same thing. >> hunter is also facing federal charges on a gun purchase from 2018, meaning he could face two trials next year, the same year his dad is running to keep his job as commander in chief. sandra. >> sandra: david spunt in washington, thank you very much. >> john: bring in jonathan turley, constitutional law attorney and fox news

hotels, exotic cars and clothing. if convicted, he could face a maximum of 17 years in prison. the charges were brought by special counsel davidss who has been overseeing the federal investigation into hunter biden. this is the second indictment against the president's son in just a matter of months. he's also facing federal charges of being in possession of a firearm while using narcotics. he pled not guilty in that case. his lawyer said in a statement, if hunter's last name was anything oerhan biden, the charges in delaware and now california would not have been brought, and this is hunter biden himself on a podcast. >> they're trying to destroy a presidency. and so it's not about me. in their most base way, what they're trying to do is they're trying to kill me, knowing that it will be a pain greater than my father could be able to handle, and so therefore destroying a presidency in that way. >> the white house has declined to comment, but it does raise the possibility of two trials while his dad is running for re-election. i want to bring in jonathan lemire, host of msnbc's way too early, "politico" white house bureau chie

hotels and rental properties, exotic cars, clothing and other items of personal nature. in short, everything but his taxes. that's a quote from the indictment. special prosecutor davidss quoted details from hunter's memoir. the filing alleged hunter misreported expenses on his returns, claiming a payment lifted as a golf club deposit was a sex club membership. we start with ken dilanian and peter baker and joyce vance. ken, this indictment alleging hunter had the money, he had the income to pay taxes. instead, he chose not to pay his taxes, even after he had gotten clean from drugs, in response to the anticipated defense that he was addicted and he was doing this not of clear mind. how serious are the new charges? remind us, how did we get here? >> reporter: extremely serious. all told, the new charges carry a maximum penalty of 17 years in prison. that sentence is, of course, unlikely. this situation is especially remarkable, because as you said, hunter had a chance to resolve the tax charges by pleading guilty over the summer to failing to file a return under a deal that called f no jail time. that deal fell apart because prosecutors declined to declare him immune

david weiss. the 56 page indictment filed in california alleges hunter schemed to evade at least $1.4 million in federal taxes from 2016 to 2019. and instead he spent his money on drugs, escorts, girlfriends, luxury hotels and rental properties, exotic cars, clothing. so basically everything but his taxes. if convicted, hunter could face up to 17 years in prison. let's bring in civil rights attorney areva martin. good morning to you. thanks for being here. what stands out to but this case? >> i think what stands out to me the most is the charges in this new 56 page indictment are similar to if not the same charges that we've learned about earlier this summer that were going to be a part of a plea deal that was going to be entered into by hunter biden, but we know that federal judge derailed that. so here we are with the same charges about tax evasion being brought in this very, very serious indictment after clearly no agreement could be reached between hunter biden and the special counsel assigned to this matter. >> so what do i think of the strategy that hunter biden's defense team has been using, the fact that the plea deal fell apart and now their reaction to these charges in california? >> i think w
