and we have brand-new images of president biden from just moments ago embracing his now-convicted son, hunter. the president blowing up his entire schedule, rushing back to delaware to be with him. hunter biden found guilty on all three counts in his gun trial. the verdict still sending shock waves through out the white house, with karine jean-pierre even canceling today s press briefing. that is something she rarely does. hunter is now facing up to 25 years in prison, but it is unlikely that he will get the maximum since it is his first offense. and it all happened so fast this morning, as judge jeanine will tell you, and the first lady, jill biden, she was not even physically in the court yet to hear it being read aloud. she arrived just afterwards. president biden says he will respect his son s conviction, but talk about irony. after the trial revealed that hunter s revolver was dumped into a trash can, the president spoke at a gun violence prevention summit where he calle

Theres been farce, and sadly, there has been more tragedy in this campaign than weve experienced before. Yet, a week to go to the vote, and it feels as though some of our structural problems have yet to get a mention. So were going to start with one tonight, even at the risk of looking like we are off the subject of the campaign. The question is how we deal with britains lopsided, low productivity economy .
