international crime ring that some how goes all the way to the oval office, and they have been investigating him for years. they can t, and i ve asked, they can t off the record, they can t on the record, they can t name one crime that was committed. they say, oh, we think the fbi might have a tape. oh, we might have something over here, and whether it s grassley having to say i don t care whether he s guilty or not, i don t care whether he s done anything wrong or not, basically we re still going to conduct this mccarthy investigation, or whether it s comer, coming up time and time again, empty. i mean, it s a joke. show us the crime. what s the crime? we ll report the crime here every morning. yeah, it s pure politics, and they are suggesting the two master minds are someone, as you say, hunter biden who has admitted that he has a substance abuse problem or joe biden who
at the time he put in his application he had a substance abuse problem that he lied about on the application and able to get the gun. prosecutors would then recommend two years of probation and diversion conditions. now, if he meets the conditions of the program, the diversion program, the gun charge is removed from his record. it is expunged after 24 months and does not appear as some sort of federal charge or felony charge. dana: further to your point this is one of the reasons people do decide to make a plea deal to try to get this behind them. hunter biden is 53 years old. charged with illegally possessing a handgun in 2018 and failure to timely file and pay taxes in 2017 and 2018. we ll see if we can get john levine from the new york post. one of the questions has been the question of how much money hunter biden was getting. we know some of that money was wired to different family members. bill, one of the things is you
in public spaces and parks intended for residents. they are handing this stuff out in parks where children play. unbelievable. trace, we have a mental health and substance abuse problem in santa monica. this program does not address the enforcement and prevention and intervention. it is costing upward of $30 million a year. if you are incentivizing this stuff, somebody is going to take you up on it. they are. we are seeing more and more people come to this program each week and and we met with the county, yeah - we know from covid. he was not able to answer questions as to any of the science it was and how
logic, but to him it was extremely logical. and we know from his family that he was on medication. he was struggling with depression. but there is a certain amount of logic in the point he was trying to make if he just told his therapist, i bought a gun and i m thinking of hurting myself. he would have been institutionalized. probably put somewhere based on a civil commitment order, but that s not the law. he s trying to address . what he is trying to point out is that, uh in content lucky there s a situation which to him is not tenable. he wanted to regain control over his own life while sending this message because in kentucky there is absolutely no law prohibiting buying a gun. if you have a mental health disorder, and he proved that by buying one if you have a violent misdemeanor conviction if you ve been convicted of domestic violence, or if you have a substance abuse problem, he was sending a message. in the only way he felt he could make us listen and to a certain point he has s
battles. so this is not, you know, people pushing pot in downtown l.a. these people are a major threat to mexican sovereignty, never mind the security of the united states so i m glad to see the attorney general facing up to it. it s going to require resources. and we have to stand behind our state and local law enforcement agencies on the border he also mentioned drug prevention and rehabilitation. we ve gone soft on the drug issue. we re tolerant of it we are not anywhere near the capability and drug treatment that s required. you know, who knows, there s probably 18 million americans out of 330 million who have a chronic substance abuse problem. we ve got to face up to that and deal with it they are a continuing source of crime, of workplace violence, of family destruction and we need a drug prevention
