from china. we proved that statement false. we also proved that money was transferred to the bidens while joe biden was in office. while he was vice president. that s something the media has always said when they rushed to joe biden s defense. they said well, none of the payments that the family received ever were made while joe biden was in office. it was always in the four-year period between the vice presidency and presidency. that wasn t true. especially with respect to romaine i can t. 16 of the 17 payments from the romanian foreign national later convicted of corruption came while joe biden was vice president and actively talking about romanian policy. and then the third thing we disclosed to the nine family members were that received money. and i think the average american was pretty shocked when they learned that children, that kids and grandkids of the president received money as well. and that s kind of hard to explain.
if you say the opposite. we are continuing to fight the biden administration. they created the sham lawsuit two illegals sue and biden administration doesn t fight it. we fought to keep romaine and mexico in place. then say magic word is asylum. we have to continue to fight. two major policies protecting the country until we get a wall built. that really is the difference. credible fear standard. changed that. obama biden why was and biden-harris are doing the same thing. i wish i had more time. thank you, have a merry christmas.
