an fbi form which senator grassley says includes the claim that a burisma executive has 17 recordings of meadings with the bidens discussing bribes for policy. could it reach president biden? that is also an open question today based on weiss s latest comment. but weiss is also arguing strongly that the doj did not impede his investigation into hunter biden. that is the that is not what the whistle-blower, gary shapley has claimed. he says he never saw an investigation that was so buried, so back burnered intentional as what he witnessed in the treatment of hunter biden. so who is telling the truth here? we re going to sort it out with shapley s attorney, mark lytle in moments. first to david spunt. good afternoon. a lot going on here. david weiss for the third time contradicted irs whistle-blower gary shapley. in his third letter to congress yesterday, he once again said that he was fully in charge of the investigation, he never asked for special counsel status and never
it didn t need to go before the committee. him exempts the chinese research was inexecutable, inappropriate and i think evidence of malfeasance. but then when he was caught up in this and he sees the pandemic coming out and says holy cow, we re doing this research in china. he began funding and distorting articles saying nothing here. most objective people at the very least are 50/50 on this. i d say dozens and dozens of scientists are more like 90/10 that this came from a lab. you and chairman redfield at the centers for disease control have been saying this for a very long time. now that point of view is being heard and taken seriously. the free speech protection act that you re behind, tell us where that stands, senator. well, you ve heard the new case on missouri versus biden. government in the court said

that robert mueller s investigation is extending beyo beyond this. more now from the white house and jim acosta who joins us. have we gotten any response on this from the white house? no. the white house is referring us to the president s outside counsel. a spokesman did put out a statement. i believe we have it. we can put it on the screen. it says, the fbi leak of information regarding the president is outrageous. inexecutable and illegal. a couple of things to point out about this statement. one is, it talks about an fbi leak of information. we don t know for a fact that it was the fbi that is leaking this information. also, what i think is interesting about this statement is that it doesn t deny that the president is now under investigation by the special
