I will always ask is any of this shady . Im Harris Faulkner and you are in the faulkner focus. Republicans are saying that david weiss is not the man for the job. They point back to the five years weiss has already spent looking into Hunter Bidens alleged tax and gun crimes. We sent a letter. I was one of those that sent a letter saying we should have a Special Counsel. On the other hand, i have some question about weiss doing it. This appointment is camouflage and it is coverup. I think its disgraceful. David weiss was the u. S. Attorney handpicked to lead this investigation who spent the last five years covering it up. This is a joke. Not only did weiss drag his feet for five years and try to negotiate a Sweetheart Plea Deal with the president s son, he also let the statute of limitations run out. Harris critics are accusing the white house of avoiding questions on all of it. Karine jeanpierre, the White House Press secretary, last held an official press briefing july 27th. There is
force one. he is traveling to dover air base today in delaware for dignified transfer of the three american soldiers who were killed in that terror attack in the middle east. it has now been five days. still no military action from biden s pentagon. i m harris faulkner and you are in the faulkner focus. when the president arrives at dover air base, he, the first lady and defense secretary lloyd austin will meet with the families of the fallen, sergeants rivers, sanders and moffet all from georgia. they were part of the same company of army engineers based in fort moore, georgia. biden spoke with the families by phone earlier this week and the white house and defense officials say they blame the attack on the islamic resistance in iraq. of course affiliated with our mortal enemy iran. it s being widely reported the pentagon is planning a series of retaliatory strikes against iranian-backed targets inside act and syria and could last for weeks. many critics say get started an
living inside the u.s. more than 40 charged for, quote, creating and using fake social media accounts to harass and intimidate dissidents of china s regime living here and seeking to suppress their free speech. the defendants remain at large. the other case sur real. two men in court yesterday, federal agents arrested them for operating a secret chinese police station in new york city. the d.o.j. calling it a significant national security matter. despite that, the suspects were able to get out on bond with just a few hours. it is new york city. one hour, one house foreign affairs republican says this is just the beginning. i think this is a coordinated plan. i this i the chinese are embedding chinese nationals throughout our country. this police force here will be a big part of making sure they can coordinate and keep them on the same page for whatever their intended goal is here. not good. i think that they are a force that is intended to coerce and intimidate those here.
and plug the leak. we take this very seriously and we will continue to work closely with our outstanding allies and partners and nothing will ever stop us from keeping america secure. we will continue to investigate and turn over every rock until we find the source of this and the extent of it. dana: this comes as top congressional leaders gain access to classified documents found at the homes of former vice president trump, pence and biden. bill: congressman jim hines joins us in a moment. first to chad pergram who leads our coverage live on the hill. good government is apparently no better at keeping secrets than a click of students in junior high. top house and senate leaders demand all member briefings about the latest batch of documents which were leaked. the pentagon and the intelligence community want answers. deeply unfortunate leak of classified documents is certainly as intense as anything in that now part of the in box as well. we need to learn lessons fr
documents but no one expects anything beyond a stern rebuke to come out of that. your reaction. well, that just is as an example of the two-tier system of justice. jack smith is a very aggressive prosecutor slapped down by juries and by the supreme court on his over charging and over aggressive use of the statutes. we ve talked before about right now they use statutes that have never been applied to the circumstances especially in the january 6th case. harris: unprecedented to go after a former president. yeah. it is. you need more. harris: you do need more. you will need an actual case. unless people put you in positions where you don t have to do your job. i wonder who they could be? congressman greg steubey in florida unveiled articles of impeachment against biden on friday. he says the evidence mounts by the day. the biden crime family has
