To flow along with millions of illegal immigrants. The cartels threatening our National Security reaping billions in profit. A nonstop surge turning every state into a border state and making it a critical issue on the campaign trail. Wars against the mexican drug cartels. They are foreign Terrorist Organizations. When im president that stops. They try to break into our country with fentanyl. That will be the last thing they do. They will end up stone cold dead. No nation can survive unless it controls its borders. Even more concerning is the humanitarian crisis this is causing in cities across america as these immigrants land in those cities with no means and no legal way of making a living. Dana fox team coverage. Madison in New York City. Plans are underway to build something for migrants. Bill melugin is in mission, texas. A major update to a cartel story we brought to our viewers last week. Lets get into the photos which we showed last week showing several armed Cartel Gunmen cros
I will always ask is any of this shady . Im Harris Faulkner and you are in the faulkner focus. Republicans are saying that david weiss is not the man for the job. They point back to the five years weiss has already spent looking into Hunter Bidens alleged tax and gun crimes. We sent a letter. I was one of those that sent a letter saying we should have a Special Counsel. On the other hand, i have some question about weiss doing it. This appointment is camouflage and it is coverup. I think its disgraceful. David weiss was the u. S. Attorney handpicked to lead this investigation who spent the last five years covering it up. This is a joke. Not only did weiss drag his feet for five years and try to negotiate a Sweetheart Plea Deal with the president s son, he also let the statute of limitations run out. Harris critics are accusing the white house of avoiding questions on all of it. Karine jeanpierre, the White House Press secretary, last held an official press briefing july 27th. There is
because, you know, he has not only the misdemeanor tax charges but they could be filed as felonies because it was a plea agreement. then also the gun charge is a felony and he will have that charged as well. plus remember there is the foreign corrupt practices act and the foreign agent registration act that both could be applicable here. david weiss, i think, is probably not the right person to put in this. the reason for special counsel, harris, there is a conflict across the entire department of justice that no one in the department justice can handle this matter. you would typically bring in someone from the outside. harris: this is a conflict. they traded one conflict for another. right. harris: the wall street journal op-ed says a.g. garland unleashed special counsel jack smith to pursue donald trump and mr. smith has obliged with two prosecutions, he named a special counsel to investigate joe biden s handling of secret
special counsel david weiss is not so special. the wall street journal editorial board says the appointment is, a quote, best understood as political damage control after the attorney general s sweetheart plea deal with hunter biden blew up under judicial questioning. the result may be worse for the president s son but better for joe biden s re-election campaign. matt whitaker, former acting attorney general. biden s d.o.j. chooses a man who might actually like the bidens a lot, at least hunter biden. yeah. this is a difficult decision by really the attorney general and good to be with you today, harris. from what i can tell is they knew that they were cutting the president s son a sweetheart deal that the judge saw right through it. once it fell apart, suddenly hunter biden finds himself in a lot more serious trouble
bill: good note to end on. before we go i want to show you this. i love wrigley field in chicago. it s iconic. springsteen is back in the usa on tour. we have pretty good seats. we saw a great show. he is 73, no politics, just music. i think it was my 50th concert. dana: harris faulkner, take it away. harris: we begin with a fox news alert and the first week of the brand-new special counsel in the hunter biden investigation. this is the guy, the president biden s justice department handpicked, david weiss. sounds familiar because he is. he is the very same federal prosecutor who put together hunter biden s sweetheart plea deal and the u.s. attorney for the state of delaware. the president s home where he currently in office spends 40% of his time.
