BRIAN: MIKE EMMANUEL, THANK YOU.
JOINING ME NOW, TENNESSEE
SENATOR MARSHA BLACKBURN.
SENATOR, GREAT TO HAVE YOU WITH
US ON AN IMPORTANT SUBJECT THAT
NEEDS MORE ATTENTION.
I WANT TO START WITH THIS VIDEO
AND SOUND OF THEN-CANDIDATE
BIDEN ON CAMPAIGN TRAIL TALKING
ABOUT THIS VERY ISSUE.
LISTEN TO THIS.
>> I’VE NEVER SPOKEN TO MY SON
ABOUT HIS OVERSEAS BUSINESS
DEALING.
I HAVE NEVER DISCUSSED WITH MY
SON OR MY BROTHER OR ANYONE ELSE
ANYTHING HAVING TO DO WITH THEIR
BUSINESSES, PERIOD.
>> DO YOU THINK IT WAS WRONG FOR
HIM TO TAKE THAT POSITION?
>> NO.
>> KNOWING THAT IT WAS REALLY
BECAUSE THAT COMPANY WANTED
ACCESS TO YOU?
>> WELL, THAT’S NOT TRUE.
YOU’RE SAYING THINGS YOU DO NOT
KNOW WHAT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT.
NO ONE SAID THAT.
WHO SAID THAT?
BRIAN: SENATOR, THAT’S NOT AGING
WELL, ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF THE
INCREASED INFORMATION THAT WE’RE
GETTING.
YOUR TAKE ON THE LATEST THAT
WE’RE LEARNING ABOUT HUNTER
BIDEN’S CALENDAR, WHAT IT MIGHT
MEAN VIS-A-VIS PRESIDENT BIDEN.
>> BRIAN, YOU’RE EXACTLY RIGHT,
THAT IS NOT AGING WELL.
AND THINK ABOUT THE THOUSANDS OF
PEOPLE WHO SAID, WELL, I VOTED
FOR JOE BIDEN BECAUSE I THOUGHT
HE WAS BEING WRONGFULLY ACCUSED,
AND NOW HAY FOUND FIND OUT --
THEY FIND OUT NOT BECAUSE OF
SOMETHING SOMEBODY SAID OR
ANECDOTAL OR INNUENDO, BUT FROM
HUNTER’S OWN COMPUTER AND HIS
OWN CALENDAR THAT, YES, INDEED,
JOE BIDEN MET REPEATLY -- THE 30
MEETINGS YOU REFERENCED -- FACT
THAT HUNTER WORKED FOR A 5-YEAR
PERIOD WITH A UKRAINIAN COMPANY
AND A CHINESE BUSINESSMAN
BRINGING IN $11 MILLION THROUGH
THAT RELATIONSHIP, FIVE DEALS
THEY DID WITH THE CHINESE
COMPANIES, $31 MILLION.
BIDEN INCORPORATED HAS BENEFITED
FROM THESE RELATIONSHIPS, AND
AND IT A APPEARS THAT JOE BIDEN
WAS AWARE.
WHY ELSE WOULD HUNTER BIDEN BE
TAKING HIS BUSINESS PARTNER TO
MEET WITH THE THEN-VICE
PRESIDENT AND AND WOULD DO THAT
REPEATEDLY?
IT WASN’T SOMETHING THAT WAS
JUST ONCE OR TWICE WITH.
THIS WAS A PATTERN OF ACTION,
AND THAT IS WHY PEOPLE ARE
SAYING NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED,
ASK JOE BIDEN NEEDS TO CLEAR
THIS UP.
BRIAN: SENATOR, ARE REPUBLICANS
SETTING THE STAGE FOR THAT KIND
OF INVESTIGATION IF, IN FACT,
YOU THAT TAKE BACK CONGRESS THIS
FALL?
WHAT CAN PEOPLE EXPECT IN TERMS
OF A REAL SYSTEMATIC
INVESTIGATION OF WHAT’S GOING ON
HERE?
>> WELL, FIRST OF ALL,
REPUBLICANS ARE GOING TO HAVE AN
AGENDA TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE
THINGS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT
TO SEE ADDRESSED.
LIKE THE INFLATION, THE ENERGY
ISSUES, THAT OPEN BORDER, CRIME
IN THE STREETS AND FENTANYL THAT
IS JUST FLOWING OVER OUR
BORDERS.
WHEN IT COMES TO INVESTIGATIONS,
INDEED WE SHOULD.
BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE ONE SET
OF RULES FOR EVERYBODY, AND IF
THERE OUGHT NOT TO BE TO TWO
TIERS OF JUSTICE, WHICH IS WHAT
YOU SEE WITH JOE BIDEN, HIS
ADMINISTRATION.
IT IS WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN WITH
THE ACTIONS OF KOJ AND FBI --
DOJ AND FBI, THAT THERE ARE TWO
TIERS OF JUSTICE.
THAT IS NOT WHAT PEOPLE WANT.
THEY WANT EVERYONE TO ABIDE BY
THE RULE OF LAW, AND YOU WILL
SEE INFORMATION BROUGHT FORWARD
TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT PEOPLE WHO
HAVE DONE WRONG ARE
APPROPRIATELY PUNISHED.
BRIAN: SENATOR, I WANT TO SWITCH
GEARS FOR A SECOND.
YOUR COLLEAGUES ON THE OTHER
SIDE OF THE AISLE WENT CRAZY
LAST WEEK WHEN SENATOR JOE
MANCHIN SAID HE CAN’T BUY ON TO
THE LATEST SPENDING PROPOSAL.
REPRESENTATIVE ILHAN OMAR HAS
CALLED FOR MANCHIN TO BE REMOVED
FROM HIS ROLE AS THE CHAIR OF
THE ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES
COMMITTEE.
HOW FAR DO YOU THINK DEMOCRATS
MAY GO TO PUNISH SENATOR MANCHIN
FOR FAILING TO GET ONBOARD WITH
THEIR PREFERRED LEFT-WING POLICY
PRIORITIES OF THE MOMENT IN.
>> YEAH.
YOU KNOW, BRIAN, IT’S SO
INTERESTING TO THE TO ME, THEY
DON’T WANT PEOPLE TO REPRESENT
THEIR A STATES.
AND THE PEOPLE THAT ELECTED
THEM.
THEY WANT PEOPLE TO REPRESENT
THIS LEFTIST, SOCIALIST AGENDA
THAT THEY HAVE.
AND IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE
IN LOCKSTEP WITH THEM, THEY WANT
TO CANCEL YOU AND GET RID OF
YOU.
TRYING TO REMOVE HIM FROM HIS
POSITION, IT JUST SHOWS YOU
THERE IS NO OPPORTUNITY THE TO
HAVE A BIG TENT OR DIVERSE
OPINIONS ON DEMOCRAT SIDE OF
AISLE.
YOU HAVE TO BE IN LOCKSTEP, YOU
HAVE TO BE SUPPORTING THIS
LEFTIST AGENDA, AND IF YOU WERE
TO EVEN SAY ANYTHING OPPOSITION
TO IT LIKE MAP CHIN RAIN OTHERS
HAVE DONE -- MANCHIN AND OTHERS
HAVE DONE, LOOK AT THE WAY
YOU’RE TREATED.
BRIAN: RIGHT.
>> NO DIVERSITY OF OPINION.
BRIAN: HE MIGHT SAVE THEM FROM
EVEN WORSE INFLATION, BUT THAT’S
