>> HELLO, ETCH, I’M JULIE
BANDERAS ALONG WITH CHARLIE HUT,
LISA BOOTHE AND TOM SHILLUE,
WELCOME TO "THE BIG SUNDAY
SHOW."
PRESIDENT BIDEN BRACING FOR THE
IMPACT OF HUNTER BIDEN’S LEGAL
WOES.
POLITICO REPORTING THE WHITE
HOUSE IS SCRAMBLING TO CRAFT A
STRATEGY IN RESPONSE TO TO
POSSIBLE CRIMINAL CHARGES
AGAINST HIS SON HUNTER.
BUT DON’T WORRY, PRESIDENT
BIDEN, BECAUSE HE SAYS HE’S
PROUD OF HIS BOY.
>> SIR, THERE IS SOMETHING
PERSONAL THAT’S AFFECTING YOU.
YOUR SON, WHILE THERE’S NO TIES
TO YOU, COULD BE CHARGED BY YOUR
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.
HOW WOULD THAT IMPACT YOUR
PRESIDENCY?
>> FIRST OF ALL, MY SON’S DONE
NOTHING WRONG.
I TRUST HIM, I HAVE FAITH IN
HIM, AND IT IMPACTS MY
PRESIDENCY BY MAKING ME FEEL
PROUD OF HIM.
>> ALSO THIS WEEK HOUSE
REPUBLICANS WILL UNVEIL NEW
DETAILS SURROUNDING THE BIDEN
FAMILY BUSINESS DEALINGS.
HERE’S HOW HOUSE OVERSIGHT
COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN JAMES COMER
REACTED EARLIER ON "SUNDAY
MORNING FUTURES."
>> THIS IS NOT JUST ABOUT THE
PRESIDENT’S SON IS.
THIS IS ABOUT THE ENTIRE BIDEN
FAMILY INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES.
WHAT HEIR LOOKING AT CHARGING --
THEY’RE LOOKING AT CHARGING
HUNTER BIDEN ON IS A SLAP ON THE
WRIST, IT’S A DROP IN THE
BUCKET.
SO WEDNESDAY WILL BE A VERY BIG
DAY FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN
GETTING THE FACTS PRESENTED TO
THEM SO THAT THEY CAN KNOW THE
TRUTH.
AND THEN THE DEPARTMENT OF
JUSTICE CAN FINALLY DO WHAT THEY
SHOULD HAVE DONE YEARS AGO.
>> AND THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA ALL
OF A SUDDEN VOICING THEIR
CONCERNS ABOUT BIDEN’S AGE.
A NEW ABC NEWS/WASHINGTON POST
POLL FINDS 68% OF PEOPLE THINK
BIDEN IS TOO OLD FOR ANOTHER
TERM.
ONLY 32% SAID HE’S SHARP ENOUGH
TO BE HOLDING OFFICE, AND ONLY A
THIRD BELIEVE HE IS IN GOOD
PHYSICAL HEALTH.
INTERESTING THAT THE MEDIA IS
WORRIED OOH TOO.
TOO.
>> OUR BRAND NEW POLL CONDUCTED
WITH THE WASHINGTON POST SHOWS
MAJOR CHALLENGES FOR PRESIDENT
BIDEN.
HIS APPROVAL RATING’S AT 36, A
CAREER LOW.
>> PRESIDENT BIDEN’S GOT
PROBLEMS.
I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE LOOK
AT HIM IS AND THINK HE’S TOO
DAMN OLD.
>> THESE NUMBERS AND
CONVERSATIONS I’VE HAD WITH
VOTERS CERTAINLY INDICATE THAT
THERE’S A LACK OF ENTHUSIASM,
THERE IS A CONCERN ABOUT
PRESIDENT BIDEN’S AGE.
>> YES, THERE IS A CONCERN.
ALTHOUGH HE DIDN’T JUST ENTER
HIS 80s --
[LAUGHTER]
I BELIEVE HE’S BEEN IN HIS
80s, SO THIS IS REALLY NO
SURPRISE.
DO YOU THINK DEMOCRATS ARE
SCARED?
>> THAT’S WHY THIS IS SO WEIRD.
HE’S BEEN THE OLDEST PRESIDENT
THE ENTIRE TIME, SO IT’S, LIKE,
WHY THE FOCUS NOW ON HIS AGE
UNLESS THERE’S GOING TO BE SOME
SORT OF CORONATED ATTEMPT TO
OUST HIM AND GET RID OF HIM AND
BRING SOMEONE NEW IN.
AND THAT WOULD REALLY BE THE
ONLY BETA THAT HUNTER BIDEN ENDS
UP FACES ANY SERIOUS CHARGES, IF
IT’S PART OF A BROADER EFFORT TO
GET RID OF JOE BIDEN BECAUSE
WE’VE ALL SEEN WHAT’S HAPPENED
UNDER THIS ADMINISTRATION.
WE’VE SEEN IRS WHISTLEBLOWERS
STEP FORWARD AND SAY THAT THE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE HAS
INTERVENE IN THE HUNTER BIDEN
INVESTIGATION.
WE KNOW WE LIVE IN A SYSTEM OF
TWO-TIERED JUSTICE.
WE KNOW THE DEPARTMENT OF
JUSTICE AND THE FBI REWARD THEIR
FRIENDS, PUNISH THEIR ENEMIES.
THEY’VE GONE AFTER PRO-LIFERS
WHILE LETTING PRO-ABORTIONISTS
FIRE BOMB CHURCHES AND PREGNANCY
CENTERS WITHOUT PUNISHMENT.
THEY SENT THE FBI IN TO RAID
DONALD TRUMP WHILE ALLOWING JOE
BIDEN TO SEARCH THINGS HIMSELF
INITIALLY, RIGHT?
SO, YOU KNOW, LOOK, WE LIVE IN A
COUNTRY WHERE THERE REALLY IS NO
JUSTICE ANYMORE, AND
CONSERVATIVES GET PUNISHED.
SO, YOU KNOW, WE’LL SEE WHAT
ENDS UP HAPPENING WITH THAT, BUT
THE AGE THING IS WEIRD, RIGHT IN
DO WE THINK THIS IS JUST AN
ATTEMPT TO TRY TO GET RID OF
HIM?
>> I THINK THEY’RE PROBABLY A
LITTLE WORRIED CONSIDERING HE
DIDN’T REMEMBER HIS TRIP TO
IRELAND --
>> UNTIL THE LITTLE KID, SIR,
YOU WERE IN IRELAND RECENTLY.
[LAUGHTER]
>> SIR, YOU ARE CURRENTLY IN THE
WHITE HOUSE, YOU ARE PRESIDENT.
>> YOUR NAME IS JOE BIDEN.
>> YEAH, EXACTLY.
NOT A DOCTOR.
[LAUGHTER]
ANYWAY, POLITICO COMES OUT WITH
THIS ARTICLE, LET IT ME READ IT:
PEOPLE CLOSE TO BIDEN STILL
WORRY ABOUT THE PERSONAL TOLL IT
WILL TAKE, AND THEY WONDER HOW
LONG HE CAN COMPARTMENTALIZE
PERSONAL ANGER WITH THE ATTACKS
ON HUNTER AND THE POLITICAL
CALCULATION THAT HE’S BETTER OFF
NOT RESPONDING TO IT.
HE DOES NOT HANDLE
CONFRONTATIONAL QUESTIONS WELL.
I BELIEVE AS A POLITICIAN THE,
THAT SHOULD BE, LIKE, POLITICS
101 WHEN SOMEBODY ASKS YOU A
QUESTION YOU DON’T LIKE, DON’T
GET MAD.
>> HE HAS A LITTLE TEMPER
PROBLEM.
>> HE GETS REALLY MAD.
DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES HE’S
PROBABLY WISHED FOR PETER
DOOCY’S DEATH?
I MEAN, NOT LITERALLY --
>> HOW MANY FIGHTS --
[INAUDIBLE CONVERSATIONS]
>> LISTEN UP --
>> THE PUB-UP CONTEST -- PUSH-UP
CONTEST?
>> HE’S DONE WELL WITH THE
HUNTER STUFF BECAUSE HE KEEPS
ACTING LIKE HE’S AN OFFENDED
PARENT, AND THAT’S THE WAY THE
MEDIA, THEY LET HIM GET AWAY
WITH IT.
I THINK STEPHANIE IN THAT CLIP
SAID THERE’S NO CONNECTION TO
YOU, BUT WILL THE HUNTER
THING -- OF COURSE --
>> OH, MY GOD.
>> WHY DOES JAMES COMER, I’M A
LITTLE UNCLEAR AS TO WHY COMER
IS THE ONLY ONE GETTING UP THERE
TALKING ABOUT THIS BECAUSE I
HAVE SEEN THE CONNECTIONS.
I’VE SEEN THE FIRSTHAND
EYEWITNESS TESTIMONY FROM TONY
BOBULINSKI.
I’VE ACTUALLY SEEN THE WRITTEN
DOCUMENTS THAT TIE HIM THAT HE
IS THE, QUOTE-UNQUOTE, BIG GUY,
THAT HE WAS GETTING THE 10% OFF
THE TOP.
SO HE HAS A BIDEN CRIME FAMILY
PROBLEM THAT THEY’RE NOT
ADDRESSING.
THEY KEEP TALKING ABOUT IT LIKE
IT’S A HUNTER PROBLEM.
>> I’M GLAD YOU BROUGHT UP THE
MSNBC INTERVIEW, BECAUSE THIS IS
WHAT SHE SAYS TO HIM, YOUR SON,
WHILE THERE’S NO TIES TO YOU,
COULD BE CHARGED BY --
[LAUGHTER]
YOUR DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.
NO TIES?
OKAY, FIRST OF ALL, YES, HE HAS
TIES TO HIS SON.
HE’S HIS FATHER.
NUMBER TWO, HE IS HIS CONFIDANT.
WE KNOW THAT THEY HAVE A VERY
CLOSE, PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP.
WE DO NOT YET KNOW HIS TIES TO
BURISMA AND HUNTER SITTING ON
THAT BOARD.
WE ALSO HAPPEN TO KNOW THAT
BIDEN, AND I’M TALKING ABOUT
HUNTER, WAS RESIDING IN BIDEN’S
HOUSE WHERE ALL THOSE CLASSIFIED
DOCUMENTS WERE, AND I WOULD HAVE
TO SAY THAT HIS CAR IN THE
GARAGE WAS NOT THE ONLY WITNESS
TO PROBABLY MOST LIKELY
CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS.
[LAUGHTER]
SO, I MEAN, WE DON’T KNOW THAT
BIDEN IS NOT ATTACHED TO THIS,
AND I’M STILL WONDERING WHERE
THAT INVESTIGATION CONCERN.
>> AND KIND OF, THERE’S A WAY TO
LISTEN TO THE HIS AROUND --
ANSWERS TO THOSE TO NON-QUESTION
QUESTIONS, THE SOFTBALL, PILLOW
FIGHT QUESTIONS WHERE IT’S
ALMOST LIKE HE’S KIND OF
THROWING HIS SON UNDER THE BUS.
OH, NO, HE GOES TO DEFEND
HUNTER.
BUT AS YOU POINT OUT, THAT’S NOT
LIED ON HIS GUN FORM, THE
PROBLEM ISN’T THAT HE WAS HIRING
HOOKERS AND DOING BLOW IN EVERY
HOTEL ROOM HE COULD GET INTO,
THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE FAMILY,
THE LARGER FAMILY IS RUNNING A
CORRUPTION SYNDICATE.
AND HAS ALL OF THESE BRIBERY
PROBLEMS WITH OUR BIGGEST
ENEMIES.
BUT THE REAL THING THAT THE
MEDIA’S WORRIED ABOUT WITH JOE
BIDEN HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS
AGE.
IT HAS TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT
THAT SAME POLL SHOWED DONALD
TRUMP BEATING JOE BIDEN BY 7
POINTS.
THEY ARE FREAKING OUT --
>> THAT’S WHY THE DEMOCRATS ARE
NOW CONCERNED ABOUT HIS AGE,
BECAUSE THEY DON’T KNOW WHAT
ELSE TO GO ON.
LET’S JUST GO WITH THE OBVIOUS.
>> AND THAT’S ALSO WHY THE MEDIA
IS WORRIED ABOUT IT --
>> YEAH.
>> JOE BIDEN IS IN THE LIKE IN
THE ASTEROID MOVIE, JOE BIDEN
HAS SERVED HIS PURPOSE.
THEY WANTED TO USE HIM TO GET
HIM OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE.
NOW THEY’RE REALIZING, OH, MY
GOSH, DONALD TRUMP COULD GET
BACK INTO THE WHITE HOUSE
BECAUSE THIS GUY IS SUCH A
BLITHERING BAFFOON.
>> I WANT TO LISTEN TO FORMER
WHITE HOUSE ADVISER STEVEN
MiGER, HE SAY -- STEPHEN
MILLER, HE ACTUALLY SAYS MERRICK
GARLAND MIGHT HAVE TO BE
IMPEACHED.
WATCH.
>> THEY’RE GOING TO HAVE TO, IN
MY VIEW, PURSUE IMPEACHMENT
AGAINST THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF
THE UNITED STATES IF HE IS NOT
FULLY COOPERATING AND COMPLY.
THE CONTEXT OF THAT IMPEACHMENT
WOULD GIVE YOU ENORMOUS POWERS
TO BRING PEOPLE IN FOR
DEPOSITIONS AND TO COMPEL
DISCOVERY.
AND THE COURTS WILL GIVE THE
HOUSE ENORMOUS DISCRETION TO
COMPEL DISCOVERY AND DOCUMENT
PRODUCTION IN THE CONTEXT OF AN
IMPEACHMENT.
>> OH, WOW.
OKAY, SO WHAT DO YOU THINK,
FIRST OF ALL?
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL BEING
INPEACHED.
I MEAN, THERE’S A LOT OF
CONFLICT OF INTEREST WHEN IT
COMES TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
>> I MEAN, I’D LOVE TO GET RID
OF HIM.
[LAUGHTER]
BUT THIS IS ALSO THE GUY THAT
LABELED PARENTS AS DOMESTIC
TERRORISTS, RIGHT?
WE’RE LIVING --
>> NOT GONNA LIE, I KNOW SOME
MOMS --
>> BUT WE’RE LIVING IN DARK
TIMES AS A COUNTRY.
WHEN YOU LOSE THE RULE OF LAW IN
A COUNTRY, WE’RE CEASING, WE’RE
NO LONGER GOING TO BE A
CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC, RIGHT?
OR YOU TALKED ABOUT THE DETHE
SIRE TO GET RID OF TRUMP, LOOK
AT WHAT THEY’RE DOING WITH ALL
THESE INVESTIGATIONS THAT HE’S
FACING, THE CRIMINAL PROBE OUT
OF -- GEORGIA PROBABLY FEDERALLY
>> CLEAR CRIMES GOING ON HERE
TO, AND BY HAULING MERRICK
GARLAND IN FRONT OF THE
COMMITTEES INVESTIGATING, WHAT
YOU’RE ABLE TO DO IS YOU’RE ABLE
TO TO GET TO THE TRUTH OF THESE
THINGS.
AND THEY SHOULD, AND HE SHOULD
BE IMPEACHED.
>> YEAH.
>> THIS IS APPALLING, WHAT THIS
GUY’S --
>> COVERING FOR.
>> BUT I WONDER THOUGH, BUT
THERE’S SO MANY ISSUES THAT
AMERICANS -- I MEAN, WE’RE
LITERALLY SEEING THE DESTRUCTION
OF THE COUNTRY.
YOU CAN’T EVEN GET, YOU KNOW,
BABY TYLENOL, BABY FORMULA.
I WONDER IF THIS IS WHAT DRIVES
THE NEEDLE FOR VOTERS OR
INDEPENDENTS TO TURN OUT.
I DON’T KNOW.
>> YEAH.
REMEMBER YESTERDAY -- OH, NO,
SORRY.
>> WHO SHOULDN’T YOU IMPEACH AT
THIS POINT?
[LAUGHTER]
THE NUMBER --
>> YEAH --
>> -- KEEP COMING OUT, AND THEN
WE HAVE THIS THING, WE KNEW THAT
LETTER THAT WAS SIGNED BY THE 50
INTELLIGENCE OPERATORS WAS
PHONY.
NOW WE KNOW ANTONY BLINKEN WAS
IN ON IT, AND ALL THESE GUYS, I
MEAN, THEY WERE TRYING TO COFFER
UP -- COVER UP THIS SCANDAL SO
THAT THEIR GUY COULD GET IN THE
WHITE HOUSE.
IT JUST BOGGLES THE MIND, THE
NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO ARE IN ON
THIS THING.
>> YEAH.
>> AND LIKE YOU SAID, WHAT ARE
YOU GOING TO DO?
WHERE DO YOU START?
>> YESTERDAY, REMEMBER, WE WERE
TALKING ABOUT BIDEN AND HOW HE
DOESN’T HIKE THE NEGATIVE NEWS,
SO EARMUFF, PRESIDENT.
WHEN YOU LINE HIM UP TO TRUMP,
THE NUMBERS ARE PRETTY
OVERWHELMINGLY IN BIDEN’S FAVOR.
THAT’S NOT NEGATIVE NEWS, IT’S
JUST FACT.
BUT I GUESS HE DOESN’T LIKE THE
FACTS UNLESS IT’S POSITIVE IN
HIS --
>> YEAH, YOU WANT TO SEE TOUGH
MEDIA QUESTIONING, LOOK AT WHAT
TRUMP HAS TO PUT UP.
