NEWLY UP COVERED EMAIL SHOW THEN
VICE PRESIDENT BIDEN’S OFFICE
WORKED TO COVER UP A BLOOMBERG
NEWS STORY ABOUT HUNTER JUST
DAYS AFTER THE "NEW YORK TIMES"
PUBLISHED A REPORT ON HIS
DEALINGS IN UKRAINE.
>> EMAIL TO VICE PRESIDENT’S
COMMS DIRECTOR KATE BETTINGFIELD
ERIC SHEARN ASKED QUOTE YOU SHAW
U.S. SOMETIMES ARTICLE ANY
FOLLOW UP ON IT.
BEDINGFIELD SAID BP JUST
FINISHED INTERVIEW WITH THE
TRAVELING REPORT MIKE HUCKABEE
IS HERE TO REACT.
THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US.
OBVIOUSLY, IT’S VERY CONCERNING
THAT THIS GOVERNMENT OFFICE HAD
SUCH A COZY RELATIONSHIP, IT
SEEMS, WITH THE MEDIA AND THE
FBI.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
>> WELL, I THINK AS A PERSON WHO
WAS IN POLITICS FOR A LONG TIME,
I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO BE ABLE TO
TELL REPORTERS WHY DON’T YOU
JUST PUT ICE ON THIS STORY AND
NOT GO WITH IT BECAUSE IT WOULD
REALLY MAKE ME LOOK BAD.
DON’T WE ALL WISH WE HAD RORLTS
WHO WOULD JUST DO OUR BIDDING?
THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS.
JOURNALISM IS DEAD AND DONALD
TRUMP WAS RIGHT.
THE MEDIA HAS BECOME OUR ENEMY,
AND THAT’S A SAD THING.
BECAUSE WE NEED A FAIR
RESPONSIBLE PRESS TO TELL US
WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING.
THIS IS THE BEST WAY THAT WE
PROTECT OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY AND
DEMOCRACY.
I WISH "THE WASHINGTON POST"
MOTTO OF DEMOCRACY DIES IN
DARKNESS WOULD SOMEHOW BE
REVIVED BY SOME OF THESE PEOPLE.
>> Todd: WE NEED A
NON-POLITICIZED MEDIA AND
NON-POLITICIZED FBI.
NOW THE "NEW YORK POST" IS
REPORTING THAT HUNTER BIDEN USED
A MOLE WITHIN THE FBI NAMED
ONE-EYE BECAUSE, OF COURSE, WHO
ALERTED HUNTER AND HIS CHINESE
BUSINESS PARTNERS ABOUT ANY
FEDERAL INVESTIGATIONS.
GOVERNOR, HOW CAN WE TRUST THE
FBI TO NOT BE POLITICIZED AND
NOT BE SO PRO-BIDEN AND
ANTI-CONSERVATIVE WHEN WE GET A
DRIP, DRIP, DRIP LIKE THIS
SEEMINGLY EVERY WEEK OR MONTH
NOW.
>> TODD, THE TRUTH IS WE CAN’T
TRUST THE FBI ANYMORE.
THAT’S PATHETIC.
THIS IS AN AGENCY WE NEED TO
HAVE CONFIDENCE IN, AND WE
DON’T.
WE HAVE SEEN HOW CORRUPT THEY
ARE, HOW POLITICIZED AND
WEAPONIZED.
AND THIS WHOLE STORY, I MEAN,
THE "NEW YORK POST" DID A
MAGNIFICENT JOB ON THIS STORY.
AND THERE IS ONE PARTICULAR
PIECE OF IT WHERE THEY SAY THAT
THERE WAS AN ASIAN, AFRICAN AND
JUST THAT ONE EYE TELLS THEM
THAT ALL ABOUT INVOLVED IN THIS.
IT SOUNDS LIKE THE BEGINNING OF
A JOKE SOMEWHERE IT’S NOT A
JOKE.
THIS IS SERIOUS.
IT SHOWS THAT HUNTER BIDEN WAS
MAKING AND MANIPULATING MULTI
MILLION DOLLARS DEALS WITH THE
CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY.
IF YOU MADE THIS INTO A MOVIE,
PEOPLE WOULD SAY, YEAH, IT’S NOT
CREDIBLE.
IT’S JUST -- THERE IS TOO MANY
TWISTS AND TURNS.
YOU HAVE GOT THESE CHINESE
CHARACTERS NAMED HO AND YE AND
ISRAELI DR. LUFT WHO IS
INVOLVED.
GETS CHARGED WITH GUN RUNNING
EVEN THOUGH HE SAID HE NEVER
DEALT WITH ARMS.
THE U.S. PUTS HIM IN PRISON FOR
A WHILE THERE ARE SO MANY CRAZY
THINGS ABOUT HOW THIS IS GOING
DOWN AND THE PRESS, ONCE AGAIN,
I BLAME THEM, BECAUSE THEY JUST
TURNED, WELL, LET ME TELL YOU
THIS, THEY TURN ONE EYE AWAY
FROM THE WHOLE STORY.
>> Todd: NICELY DONE.
>> Ashley: THAT WAS A GOOD ONE.
WE ARE EXPECTING THE TRUMP GRAND
JURY TO RECONVENE TODAY AFTER
MANHATTAN ALVIN BRAGG ABRUPTLY
CANCELED’S TODAY’S HEARING.
PUSHBACK TO INDICT TRUMP THE
DISTRICT ATTORNEY IS HAVING
TROUBLE CONVINCING THE GRAND
JURY ON POTENTIAL CHARGES DUE TO
THE WEAKNESS OF THE CASE.
YOUR THOUGHTS, GOVERNOR?
>> WELL, IF YOU CAN NOT GET AN
INDICTMENT OF DONALD TRUMP IN
NEW YORK WHERE THEY HATE HIM,
RUN BY THE MOST PARTISAN LEFT
WING DEMOCRATS, THEN MAYBE IT’S
TIME FOR US TO SAY LET’S MOVE ON
TO SOMETHING ELSE. HERE’S THE TRAGEDY.
HERE’S THE TRAGEDY.
WE JUST HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT
SERIOUS CRIMINAL ACTIVITY.
WHAT’S DONALD TRUMP DOING, GOING
AFTER SOMETHING LIKE THE MOST
LEGAL SCHORLS THERE IS NOTHING
THERE.
THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
IT’S TIME FOR AL VILLAGE BRAGG
TO PUT UP OR SHUT UP AND ALSO I
WISH SOME OF THOSE.
>> Todd: A HUGE EMBARRASSMENT.
