hunter biden used his power of the son of then-vice president biden, for burisma where hunter was workingr and former trump deputy press secretary hogan gidley. the times reports the biden white house literally sat on this information for years. why do you think it's coming out now because we know ukraine's burisma, hired hunter and paid him a million bucks a year after president obama made then-vice president biden point man on ukraine and eastern europe. why is it leaking now? >> well first of all i'm not going to pat the press on the back for doing its job, because they've been covering up so many things for so long. imagine what happens when the media finds out that the hunter biden laptop is real, or that joe biden is old and has physical problems as well. imagine what they are going to do and what they are going to say. this is another instance where everyone knows what's going on. they're hiding it, covering it up but the reason it's coming out now, liz, is because it is very clear that joe biden is used up. they don't need him anymore for any political victories. they have cast hi

they lied about hunter biden laptop everybody knew that hunter biden laptop was real they lied. >> they we know they lied, and i guess nothing in mark zuckerberg's letter to jim jordan is a surprise. but i think it is a surprise that he is, being quite -- um -- you know i mean too little too late disingenuous but being quite open about if fact that fbi pressured facebook to censor our story, that it was the biden-harris administration that was making them censor about covid-19, if you remember forced to all big tech companies forced to take down sort of names things making fun of jill biden, that has nothing to do with safeguarding anything it is just about striking dissent a engulfing period, if you remember a few months before 2020 election facebook was slammed they loss about the 60 billion dollars in market revenue after there was assad revenue, that was a subtle threat to them that weren't censoring donald trump, the things that democrats did not want seen enough. shortly after that mark zuckerberg coughed up 400 million dollars, he seems sore about that i would say coming clean no

and hunter biden did reach out to the u.s.mbassador to italy, according to the new york times, he was asking essentially for a little bit of networking help. but the eu plus government balked they were very hesitant to want to do anything that hunter biden was requested. we've seen this over and over again in different instances with him around this time where they're saying we're not going to be actively advocating in this way, especially with this ukrainian company involved and a lawyer for hunter biden didn't abbe lowell did say to the times that there was no meeting that ever actually occurred. there was no project that materialized. and of course, crucially, jon hunter biden has been investigated for years and has never been charged with any illegal foreign lobbying activity. and there's nothing where we have found his father doing anything it could have helped him whenever he was sitting in the vice presidency, john katelyn polantz. >> thank you so much for sharing your reporting. great to see you this morning. sir. >> i

pero esta revelaciÓn pone a hunter biden otra vez bajo la lupa. ayuda al gobierno de los estados unidos para que una compaÑÍa ucraniana pudiera desarrollar un lucrativo proyecto en italia, segÚn documentos que fueron revelados al diario the new york times, la impresiÓn es de que, bueno, Él aprovechÓ la oportunidad de que su padre era el vicepresidente de estados unidos en ese momento. >> eso es lo que vemos. la impresiÓn que te da. pero eso no significa que legalmente hunter biden violÓ la ley. >> los rÉcords que el departamento de estado tuvo que revelar al times bajo la ley de acceso a la informaciÓn indican que hay una carta escrita por hunter biden a la embajada de estados unidos en italia en la que solicita asistencia para la firma ucraniana burisma, de la cual era miembro de la junta directiva. el texto de esa carta no fue revelado. un funcionario del departamento de comercio basado entonces en esa embajada, le respondiÓ que al tratarse de una compaÑÍa ucraniana, el gobierno de los estados unidos no debÍa abogar activamente con el gobierno d

biden bank records last year. he says this revealed ties to romania. bank records don't lie. special counsel dave old weiss says they structure the deal for hunter so it concealed the true nature of the work he was performing. there are ramifications for president biden. gabriel will testify in the tax evasion last stomach next month. it underscores how the hunter biden family tried to peddle influence overseas. >> sandra: at the very latest on all of that, thank you. >> john: let's bring in jonathan turley, constitution law attorney and fox news contributor. all of this about gabriel popovicius to hunter biden and associates is being used to buttress the tax case against him. but in doing so, it opens up a whole new can of worms. >> it's very festering for many of us who have been writing for years that we don't understand why there was not a charge for being an unregistered foreign agent. this is replete with contracts that would seem to meet a standard set an earlier. you couldn't have an official go to epcot without getting a charge from the justice department. it seemed to be one of the most ubiquitous charges coming out of that department.

they might he might be a hunter biden's ticket to negotiating a plea deal. now cnn's katelyn polantz has much more on this. kaitlan. what are you learning about it? what does it mean okay. >> a plea would avoid a second trial for hunter biden in federal court. he's already been convicted of gun crimes in delaware, and he is headed in just three weeks to a trial on tax evasion charges what our resources are telling us is that hunter biden has been open to a plea deal with the special counsel's office for some time. he had one before it fell apart, before the judge, it was a deal that would have minimized his potential prison time and even after he was convicted by a jury in delaware's federal port on those gun charges. there were some nominal preliminary feeling out talks of the possibility of a plea deal. he does seem to be possibly open to this to not have this second trial in california, but the special counsel's office hasn't given him anything concrete that he would want and so it's full steam ahead to trial. that's where mark geragos, this lawyer based

jace, "the new york times" is finally reporting that hunter biden lobbied the obama state department dent in 2016 to get it to pressure italy to deliver on a lucrative multimillion dollar energy contract for hunter's bosses at a ukraine's burisma? now years later suddenly everybody's waking up, jason? what do you think? >> well, yeah, now that joe biden isn't running for president again, new york times finds it's a good time to go ahead and release information that people like peter schweizer and the government accountability institute, which i'm involved with, and others have been reporting on for years. the bidens have tried and been successful in doing business in china and romania and and the ukraine. they're tried in mexico. there's other countries involved and engaged as well. that was the family business, and that's what a james comer, the oversight chairman, has been highlighting, all these different llcs set up, the bank accounts set up, the flow of millions upon millions of dollars going into the bidens' bank account. elizabeth: this is garden variety corruption that's been

they seem to be going for a bad place for hunter biden.a harris, if she's a fair president, should allow them to. >> bill: another topic, nobody is talking about, october surprise that will hit in september. judge merchan will assist donald trump. he's been asked to step aside and refuses to do that. how do you see this playing? what is impact day after? >> john: you notice how the calendar is working this way. judge merchan has ruled against donald trump every opportunity he had. he could have exercised discretion to change the sente sentencing date but instead moved it closer to absentee voting in my home state of pennsylvania. imagine if judge merchan sentenced donald trump to jail time or went crazy and said donald trump does not get to stay out of jail while this it in appeal. he has the power. i expect he wouldn't. this judge used discretion to force this trial in a political dreksz that will have an impact on the election. >> bill: we will watch it together. john john yoo, thank you. >> they kept him in the basement and they are kee

do you have absolute proof that biden did do business with hunter? nt biden was the central figure, cnn reported what i have been saying for a year and 1/2, that hunter biden was accessing his contacts in his father's administration to profit. doing that with adversaries around the world even though the media said there was nothing there, just two weeks ago, david wise, special prosecutor charged, added his charges that hunter biden was taking money from the romanian government to influence policy in romania, that's being an unregistered foreign agent, lobbying adversaries around the world for profit, president biden was the central figure, karen john pierce said the president never did business with his son. i can say this on fox business because this is a financially literate audience of this channel right now. there was no business, no legitimate business, their business was taking money from enemies around the world, laundering it through shell companies and never paying taxes on it. they were doing this because of president biden. to say he was n

i will point back to the 2020 election, the hunter biden laptop that is one i'm particularly aggrievedy. tony blinken with the biden campaign is the one who planted this idea that the hunter biden laptop was russian disinformation, when he knew it wasn't. and mike morel, the format and director of the cia, ran with it and got the so-called 51 experts all using the color of their authority, former cia directors and intelligence experts to sign onto this false document. that was put out to the american people. that was a big lie purposefully done. it is not just my opinion, it is sworn testimony under jim jordan's house judiciary committee where mike morel admitted to that. he said he did it for the purpose of helping biden get elected. that was a purposeful lie in military terms, a psychological operation. and it was successful. biden used it in the debate prior to the 2020 election. it was never covered by the mass media to address that, that they were the ones lying, not the russians and the hunter biden laptop. >> that his confidence in voting systems in this country. >> we shouldn't

this morning, new reaction as "the new york times" reporting hunter biden sought assistance from the company. hunter wrote at least one letter to the u.s. ambassador in italy asking for help. his attorney telling nbc news, no meeting occurred, no project materialized, no request for anything in the u.s. was ever sought. only an introduction in italy was requested. a white house spokesperson said president biden was not aware when he was vice president about this outreach. joining us now "the new york times" reporter who broke the story. ken, great seeing you. what happened here? >> hunter biden was on the board of this ukrainian gas committee. it was seeking to expand internationally, including a line of business that focussed on geothermal energy. italy is a hotbed of this. hunter biden and other officials reached out to a number of people in the italian government and the tuscan government and the u.s. government seeking to move this process along. what we got was correspondence showing that hunter biden had written to the u.s. ambassador to italy at the time seeking an introductio

hunter hired by a roman oligarch to protect joe biden's mpoliticl image.t this reporting. i asked this question, how is joe biden still president of the united states? he does not work. look at his schedule? he can't run the country for four years, but he can be president for four years. today no public events. 3:00 quick call with president of ppanama. he does not receive intelligence briefing until 4:00 p.m. in the afternoon. do our terist ares sleep on wednesdays? where is outrage? pointed questions outside of jacqui heinrich and peter doocy. all of it will come out now, where is it coming from? you hear about friction between biden camp and harris camp, either way everybody vin diindicated going back to 2019. >> todd: there is something else here, joe biden is still president, that fact has not changed. any presidential arguments as to why these records needed to be withheld is still in play. what do you make of the hubris of releasing records when joe biden is no longer running, a campaign and a presidency are two different points. joke that is a grea

. >> the new york times is reporting hunter biden sought help from a u.s. ambassador. while biden was vice president. what is biden's reaction to this and is he concerned about what this looks like to the american republic? >> the president has never done business with his son. he was not aware of this. and you for anything further, i would have to refer you to hunter biden's representatives. i cannot speak beyond that. i have said this before. the president was not in business with his son. this is the first time he has -- he was not aware of this and for anything further you have to reach out to hunter biden. >> you said from the podium president biden would not pardon his son. if vice president harris is elected, would he tell her also? >> that is a hypothetical. i can speak for the president. he said he would not pardon his son. i'm going to leave it there. >> two days ago, john kirby said it was the u.s.'s and assessment -- u.s.'s assessment it was increasingly likely an attack by a ron and its proxy -- by iran and its proxies were coming in the coming days. has th

trouble is far from over apparently for hunter biden back in the news. the d.o.j. argues a criminal oligarch paid off the first son to try and influence u.s. policy while president biden was serving as v.p. new documents out there and chad pergram has seen them and live on capitol hill to take us through this story. what now in the chapter of hunter biden? >> good morning. it is possible this could be the closest anyone has come to showing a transfer of money from overseas in exchange for potential influence over u.s. policy with hunter biden. we have heard about his ties to the ukrainian energy firm burisma. how investigators probed that for months. how about potential links to romania? prosecutors in his tax case say he worked for a romanian business magnate. the allegation is that hunter biden and his business colleagues took $3 million in payments. the man faces a criminal investigation in romania over a land deal. special counsel david weiss makes that very case in his filing in california. weiss alleges they structured the deal for hunter so it concealed the t

with the hunter biden saga as it continues here.ll of the political upheaval in the change of nominees that there is still a lot going on on that front. gary? >> sorry. i didn't realize you sped my name. what is most interesting about this situation is that we are just learning about it now and we are learning about it through the release of foia and the reason that matters is because the secretary of state deputy spokesperson yesterday or this week said something to the effect of we should look into the timing that politics does not play a role in timing when these documents are released and i have to tell you based in my experience within the department of justice, that is just not the case. it is supposed to be the case but it is not the case and i watched many times the foia people at the department of justice hold onto stuff when they were trying to protect someone and when they did not want to protect someone they could turn around things in 24 hours. and i also had a role as director of public affairs and signing off on certa

they have their poster child, it is hunter biden. president and he made money off his father's name, tons of evident for that and spent money on lavish lifestyle, on drugs and prostitutes, anything but taxes. hard to understand why doj took so long to bring this case. here we are, it starts next week in l.a. >> dana: hunter biden's attorney says the doj wants to paint the picture of a guy without a care at all, it is character assassination. what do you think, is that for the judge or court of public opinion? >> it is for both. frankly, hunter does not need help with character assassination. he's brought this on himself. that is why we're here. this judge struck me as no n nonsense, he's gotten frustrated over pr shen an began ig ans. this judge indicated he has no t tolerance for that stuff and told hunter's lawyers if they continue to file what he felt were silly filings, he would sanction them. he did also admonish doj and say, you are not supposed to include all this stuff about pay for play and joe biden and lobbying on behalf o

just like they withheld everything about the hunter biden laptop the whole four years have gone by they withheld information on the joe biden and now they're doing it to protect kamala harris. it's become on donald trump personally and the trump campaign. to bring these issues to the voters. it's up to down there and their interview that she has on a thursday night and to bring these issues to voters. i've never in my life see that candidate run for office who says i don't want to talk to anybody in the media. i can win without them. that's her strategy. and what the white house press worn and what they had to realize is that whatever panel she sits now it will be the same pattern she sets if she wins. their failure to hold her two accounts right now is going to be repeated if she gets into the white house. it's up to the press to actually do what they're supposed to do and hold a light to all the various. >> they won't do it. >> were going to find out from dan on thursday night that we'll be the first clue but so far they haven't. so far they've acquiesced and she has done a single ent

they wanted information from the state department and the justice department about burisma and hunter bidenpresidential race or was dropped out, however you want to put it. hunter lobbied the state department, he lobbied the commerce department to help marie's mode with the geothermal energy deal in tuscany, italy. just coincidentally this information comes out now after mr. biden, president biden dropped out of their base -- out of the race. >> joe biden state department, greg jarret at the helm. they knew for years about the peddling schemes. it is not just italy and burisma and ukraine, give china, romania , russia, kazakhstan, the list goes on and on. how hunter was selling to foreign adversaries. the evidence, larry, suggests that his dad was involved. complicit, aiding and abetting schemes. vetting the family tens of millions. the state department worked to hide the incriminating files and cover up the suspected crimes. first they said, oh, geewhiz, we don't have any documents. maybe we do. but even then, the state department refused to cough up the smoking gun documents until joe bid

gas company. >> abc's em nguyen begins our coverage. >> this morning, new accusations against hunter biden. the president's son reportedly sought help from the u.s. government for a foreign company, while his father was vice president. according to the new york times records indicate hunter wrote a letter to the u.s. ambassador to italy in 2016 seeking help launching a business venture for burisma, the ukrainian gas company where he was a board member. >> did i do anything improper? no. not in any way. not in any way whatsoever. >> hunter has been accused of trying to leverage his father's political influence. he defended the ethics of his private business ventures in a 2019 interview with abc news. in it was poor judgment on my part. it received few documents until last month. the same week president biden dropped out of the presidential race. the state department calls that timing coincidental, saying it was releasing the records in batches in response to the times report overnight. hunter biden's lawyer called the letter to the ambassador a proper request and insisted no meeting occurre

zuckerberg also admits in the letter his company was wrong when they demoted the hunter biden laptop story. republican representative laura lee, a member of the judiciary committee had this to say this morning. >> to see mr. zuckerberg acknowledging this is really important. it shows the lengths that the biden administration went to try to shut this information down. and the other thing that he mentions in this letter that's really critical is an acknowledgement that the hunter biden laptop story was suppressed. >> the white house is responding issuing this statement saying when confronted with the deadly pandemic this information encouraged responsible actions to protect public health and safety. our position has been clear and consistent. we believe tech companies and other private actors should take into accounts the effect theirs actions have on the american people while making independent choices about the information they present. finally gone, too, are the so-called zucker bucks. he says he will refrain from making political donations this election, bret. >> bret: thank you. >>

the new york times reporting that president biden's son, hunter, as the u.s. government in 2016 to help the ukrainian energy company, burisma with an energy project in italy, biden was vice president at the time, and the white house says tonight, he knew nothing about it. a hunter biden's attorney, abbe lowell called the request proper and added, quote, no meeting occurred though project materialized a request for anything in the u.s was ever sought and only an introduction in italy was requested, kind of vogel of the new york times broke the story. he joins me now. can what are the implications here? i mean, obviously there's not as much of a focus on hunter biden now, the president biden is no longer the candidate, but there are still these stories and folks like yourself, digging them up. what can you tell us yes. >> we actually requested these documents back in 2021 when this was as you point out, jim, a lot more politically relevant. but because republicans were spotlighting hunter biden's foreign business dealings as a way to try to sort of bring down pre

bowyer tell us about hunter biden's strategy, what this will be hunter biden's second criminal trial was convicted on gun charges in delaware back in june, and that trial he was represented by abbe lowell, but going forward, they actually have a new lead attorney for this upcoming trial that brought on l.a. based attorney mark geragos. now, one of the reasons lula stepping aside is because he's spread pretty thin with all the other litigation that hunter biden has brought against some of his detractors, part of his new more aggressive strategy that takes a lot of time and it takes a lot of money, something that hunter biden doesn't have much up. as they go into this trial. it's important to report that they actually tried to resolve this with a plea deal. we learned that there were talks between the special counsel's office and hunter biden's lawyers about trying to negotiate a plea to avoid the second trial. that is especially significant because all of these legal issues were originally supposed to be resolved with a plea deal. that of course fell apart spectacularly when it was su

hunter biden and vote his father in business dealings.o other companies and people resulting in millions of dollars to the biden family as everybody knows, three and a half million dollars. they thought it was inappropriate three and half million. they were calling out biden for his handling of classified documents and during his tenure what joe biden removed highly sensitive classified documents from the white house despite no authority to do so remember kamala, she knew everything and the senators knew what was going on and i had my own classified documents case and i was exonerated. [cheering] the case brought by joe biden, they did that fear with the election focused on different cases but that was according to the big one and we were exonerated. a lot of that the media didn't even talk about. there's no one who could have stolen that much without democrat senators knowing what was going on. wind and dined and they saw his votes and the way he lived, they saw his beautiful mansions. i would have made billions in this job if i wanted t

zuckerberg also said he regrets censoring hunter biden laptop story. the reporting was not russian disinformation and in retrospect we shouldn't have demoted the story pure we changed our policies and processes to make sure this doesn't happen again, for instance we no longer temporarily demote things at the u.s. while waiting for fact-checkers. easy to say now but that is something that affected the outcome of the 2020 election. >> it absolutely did. a number of people would have changed their vote if they knew about this laptop ahead of time. it was obvious then that this was a story given that hunter biden and his team and the biden campaign didn't deny that it was in fact hunter biden's laptop, and the biggest issue here is of course this story but the broader problem of facebook hiring these so-called outside fact-checkers, as if "the new york post," which is america's oldest newspaper, doesn't have their own fact-checkers to put forward the story that they somehow had to prove themselves that the story was correct even though they had on the reco

zuckerberg mentioned suppressing information about the hunter biden laptop story.is the intersection of social media and politics and mark zuckerberg finally admitting what truly happened which we reported on in 2020. >> everyone united no censorship nothing happening, you know what scary if you look at what's happening in europe with these laws about free speech against free speech if you create a social media post i saw a story on bloomberg if you create social media post offensive to someone a british citizen sentenced to 20 months in jail for his social media post. this is absolutely serious. to his point to zuckerberg's point we were really pressured the phrase was repeatedly pressured by the by the administration to censor covid-19 humor, satire, topics this is not a free society, where we can question the government push back on the scientific narrative that's what we have really bad things happen with science with laws that are passed this is a big problem. cheryl: fox business reached out with obligations and we not heard from the white house about this by

"well, i think this, this is much bigger than just the palestinian conflict, which is the latest atrocity that's been conducted on the basis of false flags, this all, i mean, this really got underway with two in 2001, with the force flag of 9/11, and the the the control or trying to control the narrative started then, we then had the climate." narrative, which again is subject to sensitive uh, censorship, mass migration, which is also distorted in the news, there is, there is so much of the narrative that has been distorted over the last 20 plus years, and what is happening in in gaza and palestine is only the latest atrocity
