around the next guest has interesting perspective on the hunter biden news, both as a remain for u.s. attorney prosecuting these types of cases and former director of the national intelligence agency that dealt with the fbi and its handling of the hunter laptop in 2020, joining me now john ratcliffe former trump director of national intel. john, now you ve heard all of this. when all the details of the hunter biden laptop came out back ini 2020, everything on it was quickly labeled as disinformation get everyone off the scent. but this whistleblower says something the fbi and the irs knew before the laptop went public. what can you tell us? laura i ll say first of all i watched theed whistleblower today, credible, competent in everything that he said added up, made sense, consistent with department of justice and u.s. attorney manual policies. where as what merrick garland said doesn t add up and as you
country, or he s lying. and clearly somebody is lying here. i mean, he stood up and he said at a press conference a few days ago that weiss had more authority than a special counsel. that he had all the authority than he needed. as i said the other night, you can t just give that authority orally. where is the proof of that? and why didn t david weiss, when he was asking permission of main justice, if he didn t ask merrick garland and merrick garland says he wasn t asked, who did he ask? did he ask the deputy attorney general lisa monaco? and did she then refuse or fail to tell merrick garland about it? so we either have an incredibly intentionally dysfunctional doj where they re looking for plausible deniability or attorney general garland is just flat-out lying. laura: now, david, i need to play what i think is one of the
of justice. and, by the way, the tell on the whistleblower is, he said, well, if you don t believe me, here are six other witnesses who heard the same thing at the same time. why would he volunteer that if he had a political axe to grind and was just making up something. he s not a whiner. he s coming out with specific details that are very, very troubling. listen this isn t about whether hunter biden goes to jail, he s a tragic case. it s about the underlying lack of integrity here. i still want to hold out hope merrick garland is being misled by lisa monaco and eric within the department of justice. he sat on a judge on a case i had. i thought he was an extraordinary judge, i thought he had great integrity. i don t understand. he certainly can t believe any longer that this is the equal application of the law. laura: no. and that s a fundamental principle americans have a right to depend on. laura: helps reputation was stellar before he became attorney general. david and sol, g
