Johnson and representative james comer. gentlemen, we just saw that in congress last week. senator johnson, where s this going? you just raised the issue of a.g. garland perhaps tipping the scales. what do you think is happening here? again, whether it s special counsel or prosecutor within the justice department, they re going to be run by attorney general garland. so i don t trust him. we need to put pressure on the attorney general to make sure that he makes public their findings whether they indict or not. the american public needs to understand the extent that the biden family has exposed our national security. maria: well, i mean, james comer, both peter schweizer and miranda devine both told us that hunter could be indicted over the near term. how do you see this playing out, and what do you believe are the most damning pieces of evidence that would lead to such a movesome move? well, there s no shortage of
Broken the law and profited from a foreign national. maria: senator johnson, this is absolutely extraordinary, and you have also documented much of this. we have the 10% for the big guy e-mail. what are your thoughts on where where this investigation stands even in the face of biden coming up with this new division in government to claim that he s going to slap down on disinformation when, in fact, all the disinformation is coming from his office? well, senator grassley and i ryed to warn the american tried to warn the american public about the vast web of foreign entanglements of the biden family and how that compromised potential pride. now we re seeing it. in terms of the investigation, it appears they re starting to investigate this. they impaneled a grand jury, they re calling witnesses. but my concern is, maria, that they ll gather the evidence and then under merrick garland s department of justice, they ll
Evidence of wrong doing by hunter biden. what we re seeing now is that joe biden is being connected into the biden crime family and the influence peddling, and that s very troubling. it s very troubling for national security. but i share senator johnson s distrust of merrick garland. you know, a special counsel would be okay depending on who the special counsel is. i don t trust merrick garland at all. now, with respect to being indictedded, i think there s already enough evidence to indict hunter biden on a whole menu of things. the problem is and what i predict is they will possibly indict hunter biden after the november elections but before january when republicans, hopefully, retake the majority in both the house and the senate and then that would protect hunter bind, theoretically, from having to appear before a congressional panel with a subpoena. so i think that merrick garland has a lot of opportunities to protect the biden family, and i think we just need to keep
under what circumstances do you consider or how do you evaluate whether you would appoint a special counsel? i think this is a fact in law question in each case determining and depending upon how cases go forward and the question of whether the justice department with its normal processes should continue. i want to be clear though special counsels are also employees of the justice department. we don t have an independent counsel statute anymore. have you had any consideration about whether to do this in. i think the internal distributions have to stay within the d.. maria: that was attorney general garland testifying on tuesday in front of the senate appropriations committee on what he mans to do about the obvious influence peddling, potential violations of hunter biden regarding u.s. bribery laws. i am back with senator ron
Enter some kind of plea agreement, a slap on the wrist, and part of the plea agreement will be to seal the records so the american public never understands the full extent of the corruption and the compromise of the bind family. that is my the biden family. that is my concern, i think it s legitimate, and i m trying to call it out publicly because the american public deserves the truth. they have been bamboozled, lied to, and it affects our national security. maria: and it s not just this last bit of it with hunter biden, but we ve been talking about russia, russia, are russia and the russia canard now for years. i want to slip in a break and then ask you just about that, the presidential of tipping the scales. last week former dni john ratcliffe told us to watch merrick garland and whether the a.g. will tell the u.s. attorney to go easy on hunter biden s federal tax probe. we re going to investigate that with these two gentlemen when we
