Erin Burnett stays ahead of the headlines, delivering a show that is indepth and informative. Also on this, just breaking tonight, minutes ago, the Associated Press is reporting that the National Enquirer kept a safe with documents on hush money payments and other killed stories that were damaging specifically to trump. A safe. Do you know anything about that . I actually dont know anything about it. I havent been at the company for quite a while. But then again, it wouldnt surprise me. Because when you have ammunition, it gives you a lot more ability to get to people who you want david pecker owns a stable of publications. Its not just the National Enquirer. And theres actually been stories of him using killing a story in the enquirer to get someone to do something with his other publications. So. All right. So carrie, lets talk about the law here. At the same time the National Enquirer was catching and killing these stories about trump, it was also taking on his opponents, hillary cl
prepared to deal with it on the merits whatever they may be? well, the problem is that rudy giuliani and the president are not necessarily a trustworthy source of hunter biden. they ve already made claim that if you trace it back to the origin of it, come from, you know, a wildly partisan talk show host to your point, or come from this prosecutor who was ousted who has changed his story six ways to sunday. it s going to be a real challenge. i keep reading these stories that say there is no truth to any of this. and many of them come the print versions with embedded links. when i click on the embedded link, i just don t get answers to all of my questions. for example, why was barisma being investigated to begin with? i want to see the definitive analysis just because i asked a lot of questions. adam entis who wrote that new
died, i came home and sat in his chair on a little dock kind of like this, but one-fifth the size. and i watched that eagle take off. it circled and circled and circled and flew away. i haven t seen the eagle since. so maybe that s my beau. [ applause ] sorry. i shouldn t have i m sorry. so, adam, that was joe biden today, and for better or worse by way of explaining the guy, to all those of us who have been around him, that s joe biden, and that s why i m sure this story does hit him hard. yeah, there s no question that, you know, his relationship with his two boys was incredibly intense, and the relationship between the two brothers was incredibly intense. you know, when he decided not to

more willing to do now in 2018, in part because some of the advisers who told him not to retaliate are no longer there. that s a very important point. fascinating reporting, important reporting, adam entis, thank you. pleasure. outfront now, denny heck, he sits on the house intel committee. nice to have you this evening. and before we get into other issues, let me get your take on this new reporting from the new yorker. well, i don t think anybody should be surprised. this administration has been marked by daep, deep chronic suspicion of others since its beginning. there s another word for that, paranoia. they ve been dog whistling to the qanon conspiracy network since day one. i think actually what s more interesting about it is, what happens to an administration that is deeply suspicious, if not paranoid and given to conspiracy theories when the pressure really gets on. because clearly, the walls are closing in on this administration. and we have all read or remember what h
