one former staffer of then v.p. biden saying, quote: this is a russian disinformation operation. i m very comfortable saying that boy, does that sound familiar. here now with reaction, florida congressman, retired green beret colonel michael waltz. congratulations on your military career. i know you retired a couple weeks ago. gave so much to the country and still giving. now i want your take on where this investigation is going two and a half years later. yeah. brian. this testimony from devon archer is pretty amazing but it s on top of what we already knew from the laptop. so, when the laptop you had an email teeing up vice president then vice president biden to be at the dinner. now you have sworn testimony that he was at the dinner. and then also on the laptop was a thank you note from a burisma executive that read dear hunter, thank you for inviting me to d.c. and giving me the opportunity to meet your father and spend time with him. i don t know what more that you need. what i
again. i ve never discussed my business or their business, my son s or daughters. i have never spoken to my son about his overseas dealings. i never discussed with my son or brother or anyone else anything having to do with their businesses, period. and he sent out his spokesperson to apparently mislead as well. in 2020, andrew bates, a spokesperson for the campaign at the time said no meeting ever took place between biden and a burisma executive. this is russian disinformation operations, said biden adviser michael carpenter to politco. what s going on here? it s a fair question. fast forward to this past monday. devin archer told congress in 2015 in april, biden entered the room where they were having dinner, shook everybody s hand. he came to dinner and then the burisma dinner companions, all
very sensitive time after russia had taken crimea with the goal of helping to clean up that country being a point person on a delicate mission we know that the state department hunter s presence on burisma board was messing with that mission. not only did he ignore he was aiding hunter in sell the family brand, getting on those phone calls, going to those meetings, including one with a burisma executive, and i think that counts really as a knock against joe biden and on issue whether or not he has ever accepted a dime of money from overseas. bret: right. here is a piece of that transcript that, again, we just got today of the devon archer testimony. mr. archer, while the capabilities navigate see do basically be in the news cycle. i think that preserved them from a, you know, from a longevity standpoint. that s like my honest that s like what i really what i that s like how i think holistically, mr. goldman,
biden spoke to hunter but it wasn t about that or do they really have a good idea of what he will say in. i think they have a pretty good idea. based on what his attorney has told them. you know, he has the ability to blow the lid off of joe biden s phony claims of innocence. so you are seeing obstruction and a cover-up by u.s. attorneys, department of justice, fbi, what they re really doing is trying to protect joe biden. you know, his son is running this multi million dollars foreign influence peddling schemes but, you know, dad was the key player. joe biden held the power. he is the one who had the ability to we would his influence and, you know, the burisma scan, both devon archer and hunter biden sat on the board and made a load of money. that s a prime example. you know, there s an email in november of 2015 in which a top burisma executive demands the bidens use their influence to
trump-appointed u.s. attorney that launched this investigation five years ago to get full context. we have pieces and we need to see the evidence and the full picture. emily: the 1023 used to not be redacted, we did have the picture. kevin: the trump doj evaluated it and declined to engage on because much hearsay conversation within the 1023. then the burisma executive recanted quite a bit of it. emily: felonies and misdemeanors. if we didn t have republicans in the house, we wouldn t know about the 1023, wouldn t be hearing from the whistleblower, or about the 1023, wouldn t be hearing from devin archer, who sat on doboards, including burisma. joe biden bragged on tape he had the prosecutor fired in ukraine in exchange for 1 billion of american tax dollars if you fire
