democrats across the board. we have a president of the united states was not negotiable the president of mexico. icom as governor of texas have taken matters into my own hands i have negotiated landmark historic deals with the governors of mexican states are adjacent to texas where the mexican states are going to step up and they are going to start securing the border. that is on top of things that texas has done that s never been done before the history of america such as texas building its owner border wall. laying down miles of razor wire to keep able from coming across the border. creating boat blockades but something else is never happened before z texas national guard, they have turned back more than 15000 people who attempted to come across the border illegally. so texas is doing everything we possibly can to contain completely out of control border situation that is the worst i have ever seen it. maria: governor, tell me about the illicit drugs coming across
to repay overdue taxes. but his defense is going to be look, i was a drug addict at the time. i really didn t know what i was doing. but i have come to my senses, i am clean and i m trying to make amends. he is opening his kimono, his friend s essay to the investigators on all of this irs investigation. the only thing i would add, maria, to that in the end miranda is exactly right. we have in the background of all of this the simple fact the democratic establishment, to a certain extent seems to be turning on joe biden. think it s a reflection on his low poll numbers, the fact is dragging down the ticket. we want to believe these decisions about american justice and the role of the attorney general is going to be made on the merits of the law. but joe biden is not the rockstar the democratic party right now. i m sure there certain elements that would just as soon he leave
connect the dots for us. you cross-examined why did you raise this issue? oh well, maria, and how it s the point the irony that the first president to be concerned about hunter biden and joe biden on the dealings with foreign officials and companies was not president trump it was president obama for they took the official at the time vincent comes up about hunter biden for the business dealing send it to the vice president s office. fast for janelle president biden s official white house position is hunter biden question regards barely know the guy. why are you asking me questions about this business dealings really underscores the hypocrisy of all of this. i m the reason to look at all this, the intelligence shows this. it is why when we talk about interference in elections or trying to influence elections what happened with hunter
lines of i would do for you to vice president s office on that. are you aware of the very public statements by the vice president that firing of the prosecutor general occurred march of 2016, six hours after the vice president told he needed to fire the prosecutor general or that he would not receive $1 million in the united states, do you recall that? yes. maria: welcome back. that was then a congressman john cross-examining former u.s. investor to ukraine, maria during president trump s impeachment trial forcing her to admit obama/biden state department coached her on how to answer any questions that may have come up about hunter biden s business affairs and the money he has taken in before her senate confirmation hearing. i m back with john ratcliffe right now.
the stage at some point, even if that leaves us with the vice president in charge. maria: peter you also cite multiple instances of joe having off the books meetings with chinese officials in obama s white house. tell me more about that. the secret service claims they have no records of anybody who visits biden in delaware, could this be possible? oh yes it could be possible in the sense that they do not catalogue it as they should. but no, it is very clear. there were in the laptop and other e-mail collections we have from bevan cooney and others i believe miranda has that collection as well, instances where chinese official this includes officials and businessmen came to the white house in 2011 and they appear in the white house visitor logs meeting with certain officials. but there is no mention of a meeting with vice president joe
