Not just special agent sitting there telling you what happened. that day, october 7, 2022, i sent the e-mail to executives over me. one of which was there and they corroborated that is exactly what happened during that meeting. maria: what are your thoughts in terms of what went down? david weiss being special counsel now. to answer your question, you just have to look at what he allowed to occur during this investigation. there are key witnesses we were not allowed to interview. we were not allowed to ask questions of certain people we interviewed. people were tipped off that we were coming. there were operations to include search warrants where probable cause was agreed to by the prosecutors. he played his cards. moving through to his letters to congress, to attorney general garlands testimony in front of congress, it is not accurate what they said.
Putting biden on the stand now and faszing cross examination this is a pressure campaign. john solmonis right. but for the whiffle blower the deal would have been sweeter. they were not going to require hunter plead guilt to anything this is how bad this was when we want to do is talk to the folks who were in the meeting the whistle blowers change history when prompted them on come forward? this meeting october 7, 2022. you got david weiss the whistle blow and 4 others we want to talk to the 4 others. this is the meeting gary shamly said the red line meeting when i decided there was no way this investigation will do the right thing we come to talk to jason smith s team at the weighs and means and came forward and their testimony unlike the white house store and he the doj they have
Has a charging authority. so, if he has that charging authority, why does he need to be given this special counsel authority? it s just confusing. well, you said he was told you were told that he was turned down. who told you that? united states attorney weiss, october 7, 2022. i documented that right then. that s correct, by d.c. u.s. attorney. then he requested special counsel authority from doj. they denied it and told him to follow the process. that is corroborated. there were seven people there. two people at that meeting have corroborated what happened so far. and there s been no contradictions that what he said during that day is not accurate. well, i think there is confusion here because you said that after this meeting that you had asked about it and that weiss stated he is not deciding person on whether charges are filed. but he hasd the opposite of
Confidence of the american people and that this special counsel appointment is going to resolve any issues. but, gary, he didn t admit anything when he came out. he restated that he does have the independence that david weiss has claimed he has, to charge this forever, to investigate, you know, take this where this investigation goes. he said that david weiss had simply asked him to be named a special counsel. well, kaitlan, i think it is an admission by him because october 7, 2022, he said that he had to go to d.c., president biden u.s. appointed attorney, meaning he wasn t the deciding official. he even said that on that day. then we know he had to go to california to that president biden u.s. attorney. we were told he also turned them down. and we have attorney general garland in front of congress on april 26, 2022, and march 1, 2023, telling congress and the american people that they can have confidence in this investigation because it s being ran by a trump appointee and he
Representatives we wouldn t know any of this. if it weren t for the whistleblower, and here is what the whistleblower said. october 7, 2022, i was in a room where mr. weiss told me, fbi agents decision to bring charges and where to bring charges he was overruled, wasn t his decision. so, june 7th he writes a letter of this year to jim jordan saying i have all the authority i need, and i could have all the authority i need. that does not pass the smell test. they tried to give hunter biden a deal no other american would get. the judge asked hard questions, the plea agreement blew up and the guy who wrote the plea agreement is going to continue to investigate the bidens is laughable. andy is dead right. the guy who wrote the plea agreement did it in a fashion to give hunter biden the biggest
a weighing in on whether they charge the president s son after the united states attorney matthew graves appointed by president biden refused to bring charges on march 2022. i watched the u.s. attorney tell a room full of leaders on october 7, 2022 that he was not the deciding person and whether charges were filed. charles: let s bring in our panel wall street journal columnist, column in manhattan senior analyst bill, let me start with you. it was compelling stuff. the only thing that bothered me is it should be getting more nationwide media testing. this was two investigators who have no reason to live, testifying under oath. not only testifying under oath,

Tell christ senior leaders on october 7, 2022 that he was not the deciding person in whether charges were filed. that was my red line. i had already seen a pattern of preferential treatment and obstruction. hunter biden s lawyers say that they are disgruntled agents with an ax to grind. just ahead the wife of accused serial killer now taking legal action of her own. plus protestors in kenya refuse to give up, but first the case against donald trump. did prosecutors know something his defense team does not. he had amd. i didn t know it then, but it can progrgress to ga, an advanced form of t the disease. his struggle with vision loss from amd made me want to help you see warnrning signs of ga. like straight lines that seem wavy, blurry, or missing visual spots that make it hard to see faces like this one, or trouble with low light
