and the separation of powers th court stays out of it. politically speaking it is whatever congress says it is. strong words there. your thoughts and what he had t say there, john. whether president biden couldn t be impeached. that s a very tough question. because a lot of the conduct that we are talking about, whether president biden himself benefited in some way from the money that hunter biden seems t be collecting from foreign governments and foreign countries, and then was rooting through multiple shell companie and disturbing the family members. that all took place before bide was president. so it is not clear whether he could commit high crimes and misdemeanors within the scope o the impeachment clause for comment before hand. but and back this is the big but, if the prison for working through the attorney general were trying to forestall or eve obstruct the investigation into hunter biden, while president
here with us tonight. hunter biden emitting he made almost 700 grand from his association with the company back by the chinese communist party. now, this directly contradicts earlier denials made by his father. and speaking of president biden he s laughing out concerns abou a possible indictment inquiry b republicans on the hill and sai he is just focusing on bidenomics. white house correspondent jacqu heinrich has the latest on that. now that inflation is coming down. nebulas trying to impeach me is coming down. i don t know. i love that one easy president biden to swipe at congressional republicans after house speaker kevin mccarthy appeared to dampen prospects of impeachment inquiry anytime soon, amid criticism that wanted to be gon there s no turning back. i didn t say i was doing impeachment inquiry, i said if they didn t provide us the information, they could rise to
knew that this deal was on of offer? and who was involved down the line i don t think we know enough to say whether president biden could be susceptible to impeachment or potentially criminal charges after he leave office. but i think that that whole hearing the hunter really raise more questions than it answered. i think certainly a good dog and there is just so much so many questions that still deserve examination here. and i think if you are the whit house, having the president lef this off is probably not the wisest strategy. because i think it is deadly serious for him politically. speaking of hunter biden, i wan to talk about the latest involving him. let me share a little sound on the former secretary of state mike pompeo in your reaction on the backside. about 15 seconds each.
listen to what mike pompeo had to say about that: belief that just got to the heart of it wit a simple question: have you ever done anything like this before? is this unique? can you sign the president for what you have just done? of course, the prosecutor candidly under oath, in front, of course, had to admit, no, never done anything like this before. i think every american, frankli are just red america, could see that that is unjust, it is unequal that these parties weren t actually negotiating a plea but were actually working to undermine our justice system. about 15-20 seconds each, guys. i am thinking special counsel, professor you processing secretary pompeo said everythin will now just said, everything we heard the man s a special counsel in this case. the government is in a conflict of interest because it cannot, into government led by presiden biden without conflict to investigate the son of the sitting president. will, do you agree? yeah absolutely. i would just add tha
biden s president, that could b the aggressor in impeachment inquiry. and andy is completely right, the supreme court has said for many years it will not review and get involved with impeachment inquiry, for not review what the congress thinks is a high crime and misdemeanor. that is up to the house and the senate to decide. will, are you in agreement? i think what john said there is very important in particular th timing. what is the old saying, it is never the crime, it is always a cover-up. your thoughts on what john just said. i think that s right. i think it is worth pointing ou that the hunter biden plea agreement that blew up in court the other day was so highly regular and so strange in terms of the way they structured it, both to attempt to avoid judicial oversight and also to avoid look attention at the scope of what was effectively this broad grant of immunity being given to hunter. it certainly begs the question, what the justice department, an potentially in the white
