1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: A sad day for our justice system, for our democracy,

2
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 1: for the rule of law. Hunter Biden reaches a plea

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: deal on charges that will one hundred percent isolate and

4
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: protect Joe Biden and the Biden crime family of all

5
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 1: the crimes that Hunter Biden has committed. The two crimes

6
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: that he was charged with, and the only two crimes

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: they were charged with, were the two crimes that would

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: not connect any of the corruption of his business dealings

9
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: with Barisma, with Russian oligarchs and those connected to Vladimir Putin,

10
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: with the Chinese Communist Party, the list with Romania and

11
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: a Romanian oligarch. The list goes on and on, human trafficking,

12
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: the sex trafficking, the prostitution, and the drugs, all of

13
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: the money not being not registering as a foreign agent,

14
00:00:55,400 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: clearly working for foreign adversaries. The only two crimes that

15
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: you could have charged Hunter Biden with that did not

16
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: connect him to any of that and to any of

17
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: the other nine family members that we know of that

18
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: are on the take from the Biden crime family. These

19
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: were the only two crimes that would protect and insulate

20
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: the presidency. And that's exactly why the DOJ and the

21
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: Justice Department in General, and these prosecutors decided to only

22
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: charge him with these two crimes. The media, by the way,

23
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 1: now covering this story like it's a big deal. You

24
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: want to know why, because they want this to be

25
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: a big deal, because they want it to then be over.

26
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: NBC News did eight minutes and forty four seconds of

27
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: breaking in news this morning on the indictment of the

28
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: President of the United States of America's son, Hunter Biden.

29
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: Pleading guilty the tax related misdemeanor crimes is part of

30
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: the plea agreement. He will get no jail time. This

31
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: insulates the President and all other family members. And that

32
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: is now why the media is playing this up as

33
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: being a big deal, a big indictment. They want this

34
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: to be a big deal because then you can say

35
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: it's over and we can move on from it. Listen

36
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: to NBC News and how they played this earlier to.

37
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: Our Following a year's long investigation, the President's son, Hunter Biden,

38
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 2: has reached a plea agreement with the US Attorney's office

39
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 2: in Delaware. Hunter Biden said to plead guilty to two

40
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 2: misdemeanor counts of failing to pay his taxes. The prosecutor

41
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: is part of the deal, agreeing to recommend probation no

42
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 2: prison time. NBC's Kristen Welker joins us with details behind

43
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 2: this plea agreement just filed that appears to wrap up

44
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 2: the investigation into Hunter Biden. Kristen, good morning.

45
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: You notice how she said that no jail time. She

46
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: wants you to know that. And you notice how she

47
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: said very clearly, this wraps up the investigation into Hunter Biden.

48
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 1: In other words, these are misdemeanors. This really isn't a

49
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: big deal. This wraps it up. You can move on.

50
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: You never have to look at this again. Right, that's

51
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: what she's saying. Now, though we're gonna cover it wall

52
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: to wall, even though we've not covered the story at all,

53
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: because this is a good news story for the Bidens.

54
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: It wraps it all up.

55
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 3: Good morning to you. This is a five year investigation

56
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 3: that has now been wrapped up. And as you say,

57
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 3: this is a Trump appointed US attorney for Delaware who

58
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 3: has reached a plea agreement with Hunter Biden in which

59
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 3: he is expected to plead guilty to two federal misdemeanor

60
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 3: counts of failing to pay his taxes. Now, Notably, he

61
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 3: also faces a separate gun possession charge that is likely

62
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 3: going to be dismissed if he meets the conditions that

63
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 3: have been hammered out under this agreement.

64
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: Up now, just be clear on what you just heard

65
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: Trump appointed. So therefore this must have been a good deal,

66
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: right they went after vigorously. Number two, These are misdemeanors.

67
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: How many times they said the word misdemeanor? What eight

68
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: nine already misdemeanor and a gun crime. But if he

69
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: does everything good, we're all good here. You don't need

70
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: to worry about it. So this is a big story, folks.

71
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: Five year investigation they're implying now this is all they found,

72
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: which is a lie. There's a hell of a lot more.

73
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: They just haven't charged them with this stuff. We're finding

74
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: out more. And I want you to understand the timing

75
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,239
Speaker 1: of this. I'm going to say this again because it's important.

76
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: The timing of this is critical. You want to know

77
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 1: why after five years, where all of a sudden getting

78
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: this rush to be done with this, Because for the

79
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: first time ever, we're getting to see the suspicious activity

80
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: reports in Congress. For the first time ever, we're actually

81
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: getting the bank account records given over to Congress with

82
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: subpoenas from the banks that were running this money. We're

83
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: getting to see where the cash went. We're getting to

84
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: see what was reported on Biden's tax re returns compared

85
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: to what he did. We're getting FBI whistleblowers and other whistleblowers.

86
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: They are coming forward saying what they have seen in

87
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: the cover up here. So this is the reason why

88
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: they need to rush and do this deal, because now

89
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: there's so much damning information coming out that they don't

90
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 1: hurry up in as Savannah Guthrie put it, wrap it

91
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: all up, then it could actually expose the White House

92
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: to problems. It could expose the President of the United

93
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: States of America to problems. So instead of dealing with that,

94
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: we're now going to charge them with crimes, no jail time.

95
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: It's a trumpet pointed guy. Everything's good here.

96
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 3: Getting a statement from the attorney from Hunter Biden, who

97
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 3: tells NBC News quote with this announcement of two agreements

98
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 3: between my client Hunter Biden in the United States Attorney's

99
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 3: Office for the District of Delaware, it is my understanding

100
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 3: that the five year investigation into Hunter is resolved. Now

101
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 3: taking a step back here, Savannah. What is happening is

102
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 3: that Hunter is not being charged with the potentially more

103
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 3: serious allegations of potential criminal misconduct business dealings, scrutiny of

104
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 3: his business dealings with Chinese owned businesses Ukrainian businesses. This

105
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 3: he will undoubtedly become a political matter. Now we are

106
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 3: reaching out to, of course, the White House. We have

107
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 3: not heard from the White House yet about this. President

108
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 3: Biden has really not said a whole lot about this.

109
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 3: He has argued that he wants to keep distance between

110
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 3: himself and of course the Justice Department and this investigation.

111
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 3: But notably, he did make some very recent comments in

112
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 3: an interview with Stephanie Rule saying, quote, my son has

113
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 3: done nothing wrong. I trust him. Those comments will undoubtedly

114
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 3: come under fresh scrutiny. Now, of course, this does come

115
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 3: about a week after former President Trump pled not guilty

116
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 3: to thirty seven counts.

117
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: But by the way, what is Donald Trump pleading not

118
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: guilty thirty seven counts had to do with a Hunter

119
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: Biden issue? Here? Notice how fast they're ready to move

120
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 1: on now let's talk about Donald Trump here. There's also

121
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: something else I want to I want to read for

122
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: you as reading these articles, coming out. Here's what one

123
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,799
Speaker 1: of them said today. First son Hunter Biden has agreed

124
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 1: to plead guilty to federal tax charges as part of

125
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: a deal with the Justice Department that will likely keep

126
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: him out of jail. That's how they're reporting this. He's

127
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: out of jail. Let's do a deal where you're out

128
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: of jail. Let me give you some other headlines just

129
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: so you understand the two tiers of justice. Okay, in

130
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: this country. And by the way, if you're African American

131
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: right now, you should be mad as hell over this

132
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: because the headliness I'm about to give you show two

133
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: different tiers of justice for a white guy whose son

134
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: whose dad is the president, and African Americans in this country,

135
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: because there's absolutely racial aspect of this. Okay, So let

136
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: me read you this headline. Under the headline, hip hop

137
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: rapper Kodak Black gets over three years in prison in

138
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: weapons case. The twenty two year old has played guilty

139
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: to weapons charges stemming from his arrest just before a

140
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: scheduled concert in May. So this guy gets busted. Here's

141
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: another one. Lil Wayne pleads guilty to federal gun charges.

142
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: The rapture the rapper will be sentence in January and

143
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: face up to ten years in prison. Here's another one.

144
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: Meek Mill arrested in Philadelphia on gunn charges. The rapper

145
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: was arrested in his hometown of Philadelphia in charge with

146
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: a legal possession of a firearm and drug possession after

147
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: police found a gun on him while walking to the

148
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: corner store. Yeah, Meek would be sentenced to eleven to

149
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: twenty three months in prison. So there you have it.

150
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: You want to know. Another headline, Fat Joe another singer,

151
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: sentence to prison for tax evasion. Rapper faces four months

152
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,719
Speaker 1: in jail and a fifteen thousand dollars fine. Here's another one.

153
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 1: John Rouhles sentence for tax evasion. The rapper will serve

154
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: twenty eight months in addition to two years for a

155
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: weapons charge. Here's another one. Why was Wesley Snipe in jail?

156
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: He didn't pay all his taxes? Another headline. But for

157
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: the President's son, the President of the United States of America,

158
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 1: what happens with him? Oh, it's totally fine, right, totally fine.

159
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: It will keep him out of jail. And then they

160
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 1: move on immediately to remind you, well, you know, Donald

161
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: Trump's in trouble. He's been indicted on a bunch of charges.

162
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 1: We should have nothing to do with the coverage of

163
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden reaching a pleta on taxas. But it took

164
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: them two minutes in fourteen seconds on NBC News to

165
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 1: immediately start talking about Donald Trump and Donald Trump's indictment

166
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: last week. That's how fast they've switched it from we're

167
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: done here, nothing to see here, let's move on. Who

168
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 1: cares the present lied and said the president's son had

169
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: done nothing wrong. Smartest guy I know, has never committed

170
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: a crime. Everything's fine, Hunter Biden said that interviews. Now, Okay,

171
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 1: we did something wrong, but we're not going to jail.

172
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: Everything's fine. My point is, of course they gave Hunter

173
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 1: a slap on the wrist. Of course the Democratic Party

174
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: would move on quickly to Donald Trump in their coverage

175
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: in the corrupt media. But the racial aspect of this

176
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: is the worst part. This comes just days after the

177
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: Trump and indictment, all right, And the reason why is

178
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: they wanted to give the look that there is an

179
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: equal justice system. They wanted you to believe while they

180
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: go after Donald Trump and try to put a former

181
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 1: president jail, that the justice system is fair and accurate. Right,

182
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: We've got equal justice. It's nonpartisan. We just charge Hunter

183
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: Biden with crimes. We're going after Donald Trump, will go

184
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: after both sides. They dragged this out for five years

185
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: and the Hunter Biden and this was always their plan.

186
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: By the way. Their plan was, don't do anything until

187
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: we need it, and then when we need it, we'll

188
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: use it. And then when things start to get bad

189
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: in Congress and more information comes out, we'll finish and

190
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: wrap this thing up. And when we need it now

191
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: to give us cover for now trying to put Donald

192
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,719
Speaker 1: Trump in prison, we will say. See, there is not

193
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: a two tier justice system. The amount of game playing

194
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: here should discuss every should discuss every American, because this

195
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: is what they do in third world countries. They have

196
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: a two tier system. Right slap on again, No jail

197
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: time for Hunter Biden. If you are a minority, if

198
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: you are a Democratic voter, if you're African American, you

199
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: should be livid by the doubles standard here from the

200
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 1: for the present son compare the African American community, because

201
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: in the African American community and the and the and

202
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: even if you're famous in the African American community, if

203
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: you're a musician, a rapper, a singer, a sports figure.

204
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: You're gonna go to jail for committing the crimes that

205
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden just committed. But if you're the president's son,

206
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: you don't go to jail at all. He should go

207
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: to jail. And these aren't the only charges should go

208
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: to jail. Four but a five year investigation and this

209
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: is all you get out of it. That means the

210
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: system is rigged. It was already always fixed, and they

211
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: held this thing out until Joe Biden needed a get

212
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: out of jail free card, and when they needed it

213
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: to say, see, we have a justice system here that's

214
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: not corrupt. We can investigate Hunter Biden at the same

215
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: time we're investigating Donald Trump. And that's exactly where NBC

216
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: News went with us. I'm going to back it up

217
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 1: twenty seconds. Listen again, how fast they start talking about

218
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's indictment.

219
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 3: Recent comments in an interview with Stephanie Ruhle, saying quote,

220
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 3: my son has done nothing wrong. I trust him. Those

221
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 3: comments will undoubtedly come under fresh scrutiny. Now, of course,

222
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 3: this does come about a week after former President Trump

223
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 3: pled not guilty to thirty seven counts that he mishandled

224
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 3: classified documents Republicans the former president have argued that there

225
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 3: are two systems of justice here, one for him, one

226
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 3: for Democrats. Of course, that is an argument that we

227
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 3: have seen both Republicans and Democrats push back against. In

228
00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 3: the counterpoint that you'll undoubtedly hear in this case from

229
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 3: Democrats will be that this is a Trump appointed US attorney.

230
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 3: But again, a lot of scrutiny with this new development.

231
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 2: Well, there will be a lot of politics to discuss,

232
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 2: but let's stay on this legal agreement that we just

233
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 2: got word of. And I want to turn to Kendalanian,

234
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 2: who covers Justice Department for US. So Hunter Biden's attorneys

235
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 2: are saying, this is essentially a global resolution of this

236
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,959
Speaker 2: five year long investigation into Hunter Biden that looked at

237
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 2: his taxes.

238
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: His gun.

239
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:24,439
Speaker 2: Try.

240
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: By the way, you noticed how they just said this

241
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: is a global resolution. I've never heard that before, a

242
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: global resolution. So all the crimes that he has committed,

243
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: all the corruption, not registering as a foreign agent, taking

244
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: money from the Chinese Communist Party, taking bribes, the Joe

245
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,199
Speaker 1: Biden bribery, the father taking five million from Barrisma. By

246
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: this new whistle blower, Hunter Biden taking five million from Barrisma.

247
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: The whistleblower states, the documents that show that, the bank

248
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: records that show that, the transactions that show that the

249
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: suspicious sectary reports what NBC News just well, this is

250
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 1: a global and they're admitting he's done horrific things globally.

251
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: But while they're saying that he's done horrific things globally,

252
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: they're saying, well, this wraps it up. We're all done here.

253
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 1: There's nothing to sit here. Let's go to our another

254
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 1: expert here right at the White House and talk about

255
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: how this global Biden crime family. We can kind of

256
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: wrap all this up now because it's all good. Now

257
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: we can focus on the indictment of Donald Trump.

258
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 2: Kristin referred to also with scrutinizing business dealings that he

259
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 2: had overseas, whether or not he had failed to register

260
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 2: as a foreign agent, among other items. Is it your

261
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 2: understanding that this investigation looked into those matters and has

262
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 2: now concluded there are no charges forthcoming.

263
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 4: Good morning, Savannah. I certainly know from my own reporting

264
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 4: that the investigation did look into those matters, and I

265
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 4: guess the way to put it is, we have no

266
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 4: reason to doubt beyond the record statement from mister Biden's

267
00:14:55,960 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 4: attorneys that this resolution concludes the inquiry. As you know,

268
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 4: NBC News reported that Hunter Biden received some eleven million

269
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 4: dollars from twenty thirteen through twenty eighteen for his work

270
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 4: with the Ukrainian firm and a Chinese business person, and

271
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 4: that work and some other issues are now the subject

272
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 4: of investigations by congressional Republicans. But we also know that

273
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 4: the Justice Department took a look at those issues and

274
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 4: if Hunter Biden's attorneys are to be believed, found no

275
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 4: evidence of wrongdoing. And in fact, NBC News had previously

276
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 4: reported that there was a felony tax charge on the

277
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 4: table under consideration, related to the improper use of a

278
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 4: business expense. Obviously, the dj has decided not to bring

279
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 4: that charge as part of this agreement, which is significant.

280
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 4: That was the only felony tax charge we were aware of.

281
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 4: And so what you have here are two misdemeanor charges

282
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 4: about willful failure to pay taxes. And as Kristen said,

283
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 4: this gun possession charge possession of a gun by a

284
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 4: user not entitled to possess one, which mister Biden's admitting

285
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 4: to the facts of that charge, but will be entering

286
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 4: a defer to judication and that will be wiped off

287
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 4: his record. So a significant legal victory for mister Biden

288
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 4: in the sense that there is no jail time called

289
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 4: for here, but at the same time an admission of wrongdoing,

290
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 4: even when, as Kristen said, his father has said very

291
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 4: recently that his son did nothing wrong. So he is

292
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 4: admitting to a crime here, but not a felony.

293
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: So in other words, we're all good. The president lied

294
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: to you again, the president son lied to you, his

295
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: attorneys lied to you. They've been lying to you since

296
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: the Laptop from Hell came out and really since twenty sixteen,

297
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: so that's significant as they describe it. But really outside

298
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: of that, everything is fine and normal. When he the

299
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: one thing the NBC News said there and the reason

300
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: why somebody were going to say, why are you playing

301
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: NBC News because I want you to understand how they're

302
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: going to play this out. You need to understand the

303
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 1: strategy here behind this. NBC News is calling this a

304
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: quote significant victory for Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, Joe

305
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 1: Biden's presidency and his re election, and they are right

306
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: in saying that this is massive. This whole thing was

307
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: a ruse. They were never concerned or worried about it.

308
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: All these misdemeanor charges and adjudication for the gun crime. Again,

309
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 1: this shows you the double standard in this country. And

310
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,639
Speaker 1: I'm saying this on race. African American leaders should be

311
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 1: enraged by this. African American pastors should be enraged by this.

312
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: African American politicians should be enraged by this because if

313
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: you look at how the African American community deals with

314
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: the same exact crimes and what they'd get and the

315
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 1: jail time they get compared to the white president, right,

316
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: the entitled, rich white president's son who can go around

317
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: the world and use the words from Savannagathrie, globally do this, globally,

318
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: go out in the world and commit all these crimes

319
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 1: and not be out account before it. There's no way

320
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: if you're African American you would get away with us

321
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: in this country. So there's a racial aspect of this

322
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: that everyone needs to understand. The second part is I'm

323
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 1: just telling you today the American justice system is dead.

324
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: The idea that you get a fair trial in this

325
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: country is dead. The idea of the justice system is

326
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 1: nonpartisan is dead. And you could hear it by two

327
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 1: minutes in they had to go to Donald Trump. Well,

328
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 1: he got indicted, and this was all fixed from the

329
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 1: beginning because now they can go after Trump like never

330
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: before and claim that the system is fair because there

331
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 1: was a slap on the risk for Hunter Biden. If

332
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: you look at all the crimes that Hunter Biden has committed,

333
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 1: and you look at the whistleblowers, and you look at

334
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: everything that we know about him, this man, based on

335
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,640
Speaker 1: what we've seen, anyone else would be in prison, probably

336
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:51,199
Speaker 1: for the rest of their lives, and he's not going

337
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 1: to spend one second, one minute, one hour in jail.

338
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 1: And this quote wraps it up. The system is fixed, folks,

339
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: and that is clear, and NBC News is celebrating it

340
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 1: in your face. And the African American community today got

341
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 1: a slap in the face from a two tiered system

342
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: where if you're white and liberal, you don't play by

343
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 1: the same rules as the people that elected you. All

344
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 1: the Democrats, African Americans that voted for Joe Biden should

345
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 1: be enraged by this today because if you do this,

346
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: and I gave you all those headlines, you would go

347
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: to prison. But not Hunter Biden, because he's special, he's different,

348
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: and the system is fixed against all those that are

349
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: law abiding citizens, all those are conservatives, and it's fixed

350
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 1: against the African American community that has to play by

351
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: a different set of rules than the Biden crime family

352
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 1: period
