thank you for joining us. alex is off tonight. the biden butter of conservative media for years now husband hyping up an investigation into president biden s old son hunter biden. and never seemed to end. the investigation, which was open in 2018, under trump s justice department, has then a black box of sorts by republicans. they use it to create a symmetry that didn t really exist between trump s alleged crimes, when they speculated was the crime ridden biden family. so long as this case was open, and the investigation was behind closed doors, they could really make it whatever they wanted it to be. even though that was the case even the republicans have been dining out on the hunter investigation for years, they also have been up in arms about how it hadn t finished yet. they were aghast that trump was indicted before hunter. they wanted hunters case resolved immediately. today we have closure in that case. today, we have the news that hunter biden is expected to enter a

concealing the documents. trump team will say we don t know what they are going to say, but they clearly are making the case about a two-tiered system of justice. i think it s fascinating to watch the gop candidates. remember, this is happening in miami. obviously the governor of florida is running against desantis, his comments have been to suggest there are two tiers of justice and the biden administration is slow and the hillary clinton investigation went nowhere, despite destroying 33,000 emails and destroying cell phones and the like. and talking about that is something that i think each of these candidates has hung on to. but there has been a bit of an evolution and some of them, like nikki haley, like former vice president pence who obviously worked for former president trump in that white house have said those things, the two tier system, that talking point but then said but these charges as written are serious. then you have others like asa hutchinson, former gover
