paul: nearly one year hunter biden laptops right created a political firestorm and claimed russian disinformatione median political this week published reporting from perth on his new book, on the bidens which delves into the e-mails this service in the final weeks of the presidential campaign confirming much of the new york post reported last october. this is news reports say that it's on a 2 million-dollar annual retainer in 2015, cover billions of dollars in assets frozen by the obama administration. so kim, does this really mitigate the new york post and i guess the question is what it take a year for another publication to essentially confirm so-called of the story that was denied by hunter biden or the biden campaign. guest: some of us vindicated the new york post a long time ago with mainstream media is finally acknowledging that look remember when is have the new york post provided plenty of evidence to help authenticated including pictures of hunter smoking drugs that were on the laptop and a former business partner come out and say yes, these io e-mails real because i was privy to them
