traveled further prosecution in the defense rested their cases. the first son will not take the witness stand. right now the court is about to reconvene after lunch break. we saw the family members filed back in. the president's brother james and also hunter biden's grown daughter naomi. closing arguments are set to begin in a few minutes. we will let you know as those things kind of unfold rapidly right now. the jury could get that case by the end of today or early tomorrow morning. this is "outnumbered" i am harris faulkner with emily compagno and kayleigh mcenany, host of "american dream home" on fox business. cheryl casone is with us. and "fox & friends" cohost lawrence jones is here. let's go catch up with what has been going inside that court room in wilmington, delaware. >> good afternoon. just about three or 4 minutes from now, it is the scheduled closing arguments for the prosecution and defense scheduled to begin here at the wilmington courthouse. that means that jerry could get this case later today or early tomorrow when deliberations could begin. typically when you got the closing arguments, the prosecution will go first allow client the defense. this morning, got off to a pretty slow start. much of conferring privately with a judge. the defense rested in the prosecution called a rebuttal witness. erica jensen was assigned the case last year to connect hunter's drug use to the time of that gun purchase after a sort session of questioning, the prosecution rested and here we are. two dozen family members and allies are here of hunter biden including first lady jill biden, jim biden, as uncle and hunter's wife melissa. hunter flashed him a big smile. allies at one point. overall has remained pretty serious. the jury will consider whether the prosecution proved beyond a reasonable doubt that hunter was a drug user when he bought and possessed a firearm and swore on the federal form that he was not a drug user. the defense maintains that no witness actually saw him use drugs during the period in october of 2018. if he is found guilty, he faces a maximum of five to ten years. he would be a first-time offender and a nonviolent one at that. this is his only court date in los angeles when the tax related charges trial began. we expect this trial should be coming to a conclusion soon. >> that's a good thing for hunter biden depending on how it goes. he has to get ready for what will be a much tougher trial for him in the court. thank you very much. let us know if they start to give jury instructions. i appreciate your time. this is gone by expeditiously faster than trump's trial. >> it would've been a lot faster if the federal judge didn't look over to the prosecution and say is there any precedent for this? both parties said there's no precedent. we are going to go to trial. you know, a lot of people have said that addiction problem is a real issue in the country. not everyone that has an addiction goes out and lives on a farm. the reason why this matters, your member of the crack epidemic back in the '80s. it wasn't treated as if it was an addiction at that time. they were aggressive. the chief architect of making sure people got behind bars in the crack academic was joe biden who was the author of the crime bill. when you hear liberal pundits that would go on tv and say he's being treated differently because he is a biden, i would say go talk to all the black man. some are my uncles who struggled with crack back in those days. they didn't get a sweetheart deal off very. they were locked up. they were not getting any type of treatment or anything like that. i think as we look at this and the political ramifications, this is hunter biden. also, joe biden once compassion for his son. he didn't show compassion for other people's sons then went to the criminal justice system. >> neither did his vice presidential pick. in california, she didn't have any problems with throwing people in jail or having these cases go against them as a former attorney general. >> i argue that that is even more draconian. that is in the car consequence for drug use. the consequence would be behavior while on drug use. that is labeled illegal. i appreciate your point so much. i want to take it in a different direction to make the point that other people as well do not have the luxury of having addiction soften the severity of their crimes. think about how many people made a horrible to drive drunk. and he did not been a fatality and get charged rightly so under our criminal justice system with manslaughter. you say that was a terrible decision and they didn't mean it. it resulted in a really bad consequence. then they go to prison. in north carolina, there are 300 people prosecuted for illegal possession of a firearm. part of these charges includes the fact that he was a drug user on drugs while in possession of the gun which is illegal. the point is you can't say i'm so sorry. i know you were in the throes of addiction. that's why these laws are in place. when we see people prosecuted for the same crime over and over again, they just don't have the first lady in the front row. i hope we see the same consequences. >> he used to work for the d.a.'s office, the very same one that adjudicated a case against donald trump. he said jill biden was taking notes where the jurors see her do that. we can't say when she was writing down. something that they can't do with the jury instructions in the state of new york. it is interesting how differently these cases are being handled. talk to me about the witnesses. i don't know if she's in the next -- at the time that she knew hunter biden. she testified he was doing crack every 20 minutes. >> i thought it was every 15 minutes. addiction has been a big part of the prosecution's case. i think you are correct and that the law will say whether or not you are an addict does not excuse you from abiding by this country's laws. the big question this morning's weather hunter was going to testify in his own defense. so much of the testimony was so about his behavior around the time of the gun purchase and the text messages that were happening while he made that gun purchase and tried to hide the gun purchase. the jury questionnaires, they talk about that they had friends, relatives. they were touched by addiction. at the end of the day, i think the prosecution -- i do think that the prosecution has a fairly strong case against sandra and the intimidation factor of having joe biden then the courtroom as a factor that only the jury can answer of how they feel about that. >> you called her and intimidation factor. >> i understand that you want to be there for your son. her son is facing 25 years maximum in prison. to have the first lady of the united states in front of these 12 average people has got to be intimidating. >> we talked about something that i kind of revisited today in my mind. that is, why not an anonymous jury at this point? we don't need to know their names and all that. we know quite a bit about them. >> that is a great point that paul morrow brought up. it makes a lot of sense when you have the big political names. maybe that would have been the answer for donald trump. it is so important. this is not about addiction. it simply is not. a liberal on msnbc save the disease that hunter biden has is the same disease that i have in the same disease that almost 20% of the country has. this isn't about addiction. the left is trying to make it about that. for the sake of his family, this is about accountability. this is about whether he will face the fate that donald trump did where it was unprecedented in the case of trump. the facts of the case are strong. the fact smacks the law. he has a favorite son of delaware as noted by "the wall street journal." when accountability happened here? >> in many cases, i blame joe biden. every parent has to deal with things on their own. the president for what he has dealt with even with raising his granddaughter. not only did hunter not refuse to knowledge the granddaughter. she doesn't have a stock in the white house during christmas time. there's a lack of accountability his entire life. hopefully our fair justice system will hold him accountable. be when i was recently to catch up while biden and his wife having military. that is the latest report that i saw with the little granddaughter. 10:30 7,000 feet, but the parenting is like. he's 54 years old. he's not a kid. if you look at the form that he lied on, and says drug use or addiction. the witnesses testified that days are around that gun were so explosive that his deceased brother's widow, i can't even see it. hunter biden was dating her after he passed away. she went around and found the gun. she was looking for paraphernalia and came across a gun. clearly, he had been using drugs at that time around this purchase. i would say the defense has got to prove he wasn't using drugs. that'll be hard to do. he used them in some cases every 20 minutes. new reaction to israel's dramatic rescue and how the media have been quick to go after not hamas the savage killers, about the sovereign nation of israel bad hamas invaded and broke a cease-fire on october 7th. stay close. okay everyone, our mission is to provide complete, balanced nutrition for strength and energy. yay - woo hoo! ensure, with 27 vitamins and minerals, nutrients for immune health. and ensure complete with 30 grams of protein.

did anybody talk about the fact that she was in a wealthy gaza household? doesn't that fly in the face of the narrative that we keep hearing from the anti-israel protesters on the streets? i understand there is death and destruction in gaza. i'm not saying that's not happening. there are parts of hamas that are holding people like noa and others in private homes and private residences. these are houses. this is hamas that is doing this. they are using people as shi shields. >> rather than asking questions like that, the bbc had a brilliant idea. >> it is appearing to be a high civilian death toll. with there have been a warning to those civilians for them to get out on time? >> we cannot anticipate israel to be warning ahead of a raid to extract or to save hostages. >> maybe reporters shouldn't try to play military strategists. >> the fundamental concept has been obliterated in this coverage. any uncomfort or discomfort or any anything is because of hamas. anyone who dies in gaza is because of hamas. anyone stuck there is because of hamas. israel has tried everything. they were the ones that were invaded by hamas. when they talk about innocent lives lost, let's talk about who exactly is holding those innocent people captive. i find defense as an american at the concept that israel somehow requires our comfort or our permission to do anything to get their people back. the last time i checked, the americans don't ask permission to get our people back. >> you have the associated press. this is really rich from them. they reported accurately last week. the health ministry as gaza health ministry which reports to hamas announces a new death toll for the war nearly every day. they go on to see as recently as march, 72% of the dead were women and children as underlying data shows the percentages well below that. we can't trust gaza health ministry. 48 hours later, they trust gaza health ministry. 274 palestinians were killed. >> this is fascinating it took them this long. you can't trust hamas' numbers. going back to the questions from the press. you notify the enemy before you go and rest to your hostages so they can kill everybody including the soldiers in special operations. it is asinine and stupid. don't expect anything less from the press. when it comes to hr hostage rescue, israel is one of the top organizations. right in front of them is the united states as well as delta force. the question should be to financial security advisor, why hasn't the president of the united states done the same thing for hostages? it's not because our operators aren't willing and able. it's because the commander in chief hasn't given the order. i am proud of israel for doing whatever it takes. that is what i commander in chief should do. do whatever it takes to secure your people and keep your country safe. i worry that i commander in chief has no strength to do the same thing. >> just to throw that out. october 7th, there was a cease-fire in place 24 hours prior to that. they committed atrocities against the israeli citizens. was israel given a headset? i don't remember. the answer is no. we know from trey yingst, our great reporting on the ground with our team there, we know that this was a refugee encampment inside of a city. some of them were high-rises. some of them were hamas families with ties to hamas. that is where they were. you are going into a civilian complex. they are using everybody as human shields. even their own people. they know the idf, the israeli defense forces going to comment and try and extract the hostages. it is the number one thing that biden has been saying. where is he today? say that they did a job that they were forced to do because what happened on october 7th. don't be silent now. even if you have to gap your way through it, say something that supports israel today. we are doing. as an on the record country. we have people who can work off the record. we have special ops. some of the most experienced military in the world. israel does its job. biden stays silent. >> cheryl, i do want to point this out to get your quick reaction. the cnn -- called out cnn you're disappointed to see cnn, hostage release during my interview went hamas did no such thing. i don't know if intentional, mistaken accident. you put thought in as you type. >> i can give that a producer at cnn benefit of the doubt. maybe it was a mistake. it was up there for a long time. i watched it live. i was very disappointed and noted that at the time. how about rescued. by the way, cnn has done nothing but again, pro-palestinian message has been nonstop. >> how to 274 people get killed among the palestinians? if hamas released hostages. think about it for a second. nobody would have died. that is the stupidest thing he could have typed. >> another thing. he led the message to rescue the hostages. he lost his life and that operation. i know those families are thankful. fox news alert. closing arguments have just begun in hunter biden's federal trial. prosecutors reminded the jury that nobody is above the law. more on that after the break.

[horns honking] >> trump also fired up a huge crowd in las vegas. his first rally since his conviction. during his speech, he ran into a glitch. >> just in case you are wondering. i've got no teleprompters. we haven't found a beginning. these people. it probably means we will make a better speech. i pay all this money to teleprompter people. i would say 20% of the time, they don't work. that thing is waving around. they can't tie it a little bit tighter. the teleprompter is not working. not even a little bit. great job. i don't pay the company that does it. i end up with the story, "trump doesn't pay." i don't pay contractors that do a [bleep] job. that is a bleeped job. >> that moment where he was totally real and normal american and handled it. it ignited them immediate. check out the headlines. abc news "trump complains about his teleprompters." "trump fumes about teleprompters and threatens not to pay the crew." "speech in rails against broken rally teleprompters. this quote "it wasn't just trump's reaction to the teleprompter. they were apparently appalled over his off script remarks." >> some would call that completely unfit to deal with the challenges as the leader of the free world. just completely unfit. not trying to be funny. that was disturbing and kind of crazy talk. a guy who did not know what to say when his prompter failed. compared to president biden. like his policies are not. >> compared to biden? i'm sorry. wait for it. watts. >> president biden: 4 more years, pause. [indiscernible] i think that thing about -- let me put it this way. by the way, is to make bigger -- it's easy. >> the president is not fit to stand trial is the person that is fit enough to run my country. that is the words from the special counsel. we can go back and forth. the american people decide. i like what the trump camp is saying. are you better off? that is in stark contrast. he is unfit. he's going to start a nuclear war. they know they can argue with the point when it comes to the border, the economy, inflation. where we stand in the world right now. war is breaking out everywhere. can't even walk. they have to shorten that. they can go out and talk tv and spew the talking points. the american people have to live with biden america every single day when they go to the grocery store on the border. the argument to play itself out in the election even if you have cnn moderators. >> today here mika brzezinski try to say that biden is better off prompter than trump? they've got to be drinking something a lot stronger if you believe joe biden is better off teleprompter than donald trump. that is insanity. you are right, lawrence, trump is speaking to the issues reminding people what it felt like to have a booming economy. what is the biden plan? they said if we had a good state of the union, the polls with change. what happens now? they have no plan. the only thing that is happening is states like virginia are now in play. minnesota 2.3%. biden is on defense. what is the strategy? >> i don't know how many times he can say convicted felon. it's probably trending because he keeps saying it. and it's backfiring in epic proportions at this point. we will see what happens with that case going forward. i know that the former president has a meeting coming up to meet with a probation officer which happens, that is part of the adjudication process. why is still under a gag order? can you imagine? he could actually tell you what wasn't true about what the current president is saying with regard to him in a whole lot of other things. they have gagged him politically as well. maybe the prompter shut down. i gave him an absolute opportunity to be himself. when hams himself, he doesn't they don't like say things like minor incursion. >> he doesn't confuse ukraine with iraq. obviously biden is coming back from the d-day ceremonies. it was beautiful. that was ceremonial. he confuses ukraine and iraq. i r read the transcript initial. what is he talking about funding? it was called out. amen ukraine. biden is going back to the g7 later this week. he's headed back to italy. it is one things to make gaps and mistakes like that in a ceremony like they did at d-day. now he's going back and talking world leaders and money and a arms. and i am really worried about how the united states is going to be pretrade in these g7 meetings. if they see more weakness from our president, they will see us as weak as a country. i'm concerned about that. >> they love him, because he gives them what they want. >> it showed us who he is good he is on normal average american. he did great without the teleprompter. but we saw play out with state tv. getting online and making sure, you didn't see anything. biden is the best. >> sometimes the teleprompter doesn't work. >> i don't sound half as good as trump does. a former democrat attorney will be going to jail for a giant $15 million covid loan fraud. how she spent your taxpayer dollars. it will shock you. that is next. remember space? and legroom?

listen to your heart. repatha plus a statin dramatically lowers ldl-c by 63%, and significantly drops the risk of having a heart attack. do not take repatha if you are allergic to it. repatha can cause serious allergic reactions. signs include trouble breathing or swallowing or swelling of the face. most common side effects include runny nose, sore throat, common cold symptoms, flu or flu-like symptoms, back pain, high blood sugar, and redness, pain, or bruising at the injection site. we won't let another heart attack set us back. and neither should you. listen to your heart. lower your ldl-c and your risk with repatha. talk to your doctor. >> more money, more problems at least were city attorney and democrat. she was just sentenced to 17 years behind bars after being found guilty for guilty for pandemic loan fraud over $15 million. robertson gave out this advice in 2023. >> it goes back to what i have told you. don't ever change the money. the money will come. change the universe, not that bad. chase your passion, chase your dream. >> on the money will come courtesy of the american taxpayers. in april and may of 2020, robertson chose to follow them money. fraudulently applied by millions of dollars in government loans for 4 businesses. luxury items came with a very steep price tag such as a swanky rolls-royce. a 10-carat diamond ring. georgia finally show that she donated $1,000 to trump prosecutor fani willis' primary election campaign. that went through the same time that robertson received her massive payouts from the paycheck protection program. you can't make this up. >> when you hear about all the candy she was raking in, she was rolling like j.lo before ben affleck. is there a fiduciary responsibility of fani willis as a district attorney to pay attention to as then a candidate who is donating to her campaign? when you get a certain amount, are you responsible for looking and seeing where that money came from? if you are, are you also responsible for going after that person? robertson answered them all. she changed the money and made sure that pot was big and telling everyone else don't chase the money. when she found the money, and would be waiting for her. >> every dollar needs to be scrutinized. >> and politics, there is a drumbeat like harvey weinstein at the rnc. they were demanding that the nc pay the money back in the form of donations. that is a fair question for fani willis. the audacity of this woman. that paycheck protection program came into place in covid for the purpose of being given to business owners to keep your employees paid. employees couldn't work. businesses, we didn't want them to go under. it was for that purpose. this woman this woman wrote on no form that she had 4 companies and 407 employees. i looked everywhere. i wanted to know how many employees she actually had. she wanted to go out and buy diamonds. >> part of the fraud. by the way, that program was 1.2 trillion. last summer, there was a report that $200 billion possibly was spent in fraudulent claims. there was not a pastor in minnesota who said he had 28 employees. he didn't have any. there was a man in florida who bought himself a $3 million h home. the fraud was massive. it was meant in a good way. at the end of the day, sam bankman-fried. the crypto and stolen money that he gave those politicians in d.c. >> here is that thing. the government only makes money because of our taxpayer dollars or what it sees this premise. it wasn't actually a good idea. if they would lessen resin relations, that is how they are able to make an income. getting the free money and everything people would use to grow and think about. it is our money. he goes to the fraudulent recipients. no one in that party ever appreciates or recognizes. >> this happened all over the country. particularly egregious is part of what her claim to fame is his justice. especially in the area. of the day black wall street. she was stealing money from the community that she said she was advocating for. $15 million that were supposed to go to employment of those residents while saying under the banner, no justice, no peace. racial justice. how can you advocate for that and steal from the people in the area? >> leading up the blm organization. >> that's right. hypocrisy is not a crime yet. fraud certainly is. up next, a high-rise for the homeless that has fully furnished apartment. i will tell you about it next.

we have a former israeli ambassador to the u.s., michael oren, here in d.c. more revelations on the border. not only is biden's new executive order appearing to have no effect, now border patrol is being directed to release most people who come across the border illegally here we will get into that as well. i'm john roberts. join sandra and me at the top of the hour for "america reports." we'll see you then. >> los angeles has come up with a solution for california's homelessness crisis. a fancy new $165 million high-rise with luxury amenities and skyline views. it all comes with the help of the taxpayer, of course. rooms in the new building are modern complete with a microwave oven, fridge, and television. amenities. listen to these. a cafe courtyard jim, art room, soundproof music room, computer room, library, tv lounge, and six large balconies. wow. the tower will become the largest permanent supportive housing project in los angeles. lawrence, "the new york post," they have such a way with words. they describe it as more of a hipster haven. >> i've done a lot of reporting in california on the homeless crisis for years. one thing is a lot of the folks within that population, they don't -- there's rules within the buildings, curfews. they say they can't bring drugs and so they ripped the place out. but on the surface, point number two is when you have luxury for the homeless, you give them nothing to look forward to. the point is to have temporary housing, get back on your feet, and dream for something more. by giving them luxury, those that want to go through the program, they give them nothing to change. >> that's just it. what's the incentive? >> how do you get chosen? if you want to know politics and corruption are going to get dirty, try and put a-caret out there and who gets the carrot and not the state? we need to watch this with a microscope because of there's unfairness, they didn't help anybody. if one is harmed, everybody is harmed. i want to know exactly how they are going to choose these people. what does it take to get thrown out? what does it take to get the penthouse? what are we doing here? >> emily. >> why isn't -- what about our vets, our homeless veterans? what about single mothers, homeless single mothers? in art room? with the kids in there. it's preposterous that taxpayer dollars are being stewarded so flagrantly. studies have shown that your point about the incentives, if you give money, true handouts to people who've recently lost everything, recently become homeless, they catapult back. it's using it as a slingshot to get back in the workforce. in an era when 70% of americans can't even afford the home they live in or to buy a new home, in a state where 3% of californians can't even afford the internet, we are giving the skyline view high-rise to just anyone because we are checking a progressive woke box? look at the needs of the people there. this is preposterous. >> i did a deep dive on this. the developer constructing this. one tower is about to open pit is going to be three total. some rooms will be set aside for veterans. on the other side of that, the city and state taxpayers, city of los angeles taxpayers, california taxpayers are footing the bill and there's a $45 billion budget deficit. they want to cut law enforcement. they want to cut money to prisons. let's defund the police but build these luxury apartments. the area of los angeles, it's very valuable real estate. >> there is valuable real estate all over l.a. county. i'm with emily. how does every u.s. military veteran before you how was anybody. >> absolutely. all right more "outnumbered" next. hi, i'm greg. i live in bloomington, illinois. i'm not an actor. i'm just a regular person. some people say, "why should i take prevagen?

>> it seems to me he saying one last effort saying do not be swayed by the first lady and bright colors, crying and putting her arm around ashley biden in the front row. only be swayed by the evidence submitted before you in this court and ignore the very loud noise visually that is the biden family showing up in the first lady and that front row. i wish she would've said i support my son but i will step aside out of the limelight. >> is biden country but you still need to look at the evidence. >> no one is above the law, biden says that. "america reports" is now. >> hunter biden's federal gun case began monday with jury selection. >> the first lady jill biden here to support her stepson. >> she and hunter later became lovers and cck
