those two things. you re touching on exactly the sort of drama that may be going on in the white house over this. regardless to how it impacts the things that he talks about, jobs, building things in american, the things that americans care about, we still have a situation where we have extended unemployment benefits going through september right now. he wants people to go back to work but they re paying people enough that many of them logically make the assessment that it makes more sense to stay home. there s no indication of changing course on that. the administration discounts this. anecdotally i can say across the board from business people, restauranteurs, trucking companies, i can tell you that this is happening. martha: absolutely. everybody. you can. you have tons of stories of we did a story last night about the trucking industry how they can t get truck drivers and how that affects the rest of the u.s. economy. restauranteurs are saying
between us for now. thanks. in a later e-mail, devin archer, whose name you remember, the former adviser to john kerry responds to the e-mail saying this. not clear if archer s guy was john kerry or who. let s bring in andy mccarthy and national contributing editor and a fox news contributor. good to see you today. obviously a lot of appearance of conflict of interest there. what do you glean from these e-mails and this new presentation of this story that s been kicking around for a bit? well, i think martha, it s fair to say after all of these years that hunter biden s business is access. there s nothing else that he brings to the table. you mentioned devin archer who is his business partner who helped him put this dinner together. one of the things that has president been covered much in the media, devin archer was
investigation story to this story is the lack of curiosity on the part of so many reporters about this story. to the point wherever russell brand, actor russell brand says this about it. watch this. what reason is biden sat on the board of an energy company in the ukraine? what reason has james biden sat on the board or receiving payment from an energy company in china? for me, revelations there s financial connections between energy companies in china and the biden family are troubling. martha: not a reporter, an actor. in the beginning of that. he says it s not a republican. i don t have a dog in the race in u.s. politics. why wasn t this a curiosity for american reporters? it should have been a curiosity for american reporters and should have been a curiosity for american voters. the bottom line, and this was
