THANK YOU.

MEANWHILE, THE FALLOUT CONTINUES

FROM THAT INFAMOUS CALL FOR THE

PRESIDENT AND THE FORMER VICE

PRESIDENT.

THIS SITUATION WORKED FOR THE OL

GUARDF OWNED GAS COMPANY IS A

SIGNIFICANT LIABILITY FOR JOE

BIDEN.

THERE'S A STORY HERE.

WE'VE TOLD SOME OF IT.

THERE'S MORE TO BE TOLD.

>> STILL WANT TO TAKE A CLOSER

LOOK.

TONIGHT, WHAT THE AUTHOR OF

"POWER GRAB," JASON CHAFFIS AND

HARRY LITMAN, WELCOME TO YOU

BOTH.

>> THANK YOU.

HE'S PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN ABOUT

THIS TOPIC FOR POLITICO AS WELL.

BUT TONIGHT, THE VICE PRESIDENT

SAYING IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL.

IT'S GOING TO GO AWAY.

HE SAID NO CREDIBLE OBJECTIVE

MEDIA SOURCE IS DIGGING IN TO

THIS.

>> WELL, MR. VOGEL, "THE NEW

YORK TIMES" AND POLITICO, ARE

INCREDIBLE ALONG THE WAY.

LOOK AT THE VIDEO UPDATE.

I JUST WANT TO WATCH THE

VIDEOTAPE OF JOE BIDEN TALKING

ABOUT HOW HE HELPED TO GET THE

PROSECUTOR DISMISSED.

HE HAD SIX HOURS.

IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, CALL

BARACK OBAMA.

THE FACT ABOUT HUNTER BIDEN,

BOTH IN CHINA, BUT ESPECIALLY IN

THE UKRAINE, DID HE OR DID HE

NOT MAKE $50,000 A MONTH.

WAS HE INVOLVED AND ENGAGED WITH

THIS COMPANY THAT SUDDENLY GOT

THESE CONTRACTS THAT APPEAR TO

BE DAYS OR JUST A COUPLE OF

WEEKS AFTER THE VICE PRESIDENT

VISITED?

>> NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN

DIGGING INTO THIS STORY.

AND KEN VOGEL HAS A BIT OF A

STORY ON THAT AS WELL.

HERE ARE ADDITIONAL COMMENTS

FROM HIM.

>> A THOUGHT EXERCISE AND

REPLACE JOE BIDEN WITH DONALD

TRUMP AND ERIC BIDEN WITH DONALD

TRUMP JR., WE PROBABLY WOULD BE

SEEING MORE COVERAGE OF THIS

STORY.

>> IS THAT FAIR?

>> WHAT HE SAID IN A STRAIGHT

WAY SIX DAYS AGO ON A SHOW.

THEN HE WROTE TWO DAYS AGO, AND

THIS IS HIS REAL REPORTING.

HE REITERATES, THERE'S NOTHING

HERE TO INDICATE -- NO EVIDENCE

INDICATES BIDEN HAS DONE

ANYTHING WRONG.

BIDEN ACTED IN ACCORD WITH THE

UKRAINE OPPOSITION, BUT ALSO THE

EU, THE UNITED STATES, ETC.

AND IMPORTANTLY, THIS ALL

HAPPENED OVER A YEAR AFTER THE

PROSECUTOR HAD DONE HIS

INVESTIGATION OF THE COMPANY

THAT HE WAS WORKING FOR.

WAS HE SUPPOSED TO BE WORKING

THERE OR NOT?

YOU CAN LOOK INTO THAT.

BUT THE NOTION THAT ANYTHING CAN

STICK TO BIDEN IS FANCIFUL.

IT'S COMPLETE CONSPIRACY THEORY

STUFF.

>> IN THE MEANTIME, THERE'S BEEN

MANY PEOPLE WHO WROTE ON IT.

"NEW YORK TIMES," THE POLITICO

WROTE ABOUT IT.

AN AUTHOR THAT WENT AFTER

PRESIDENTS ON BOTH SIDE OF THE

AISLE HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT THIS.

THERE'S MORE TO COME.

ANDREW McCARTHY, YOU KNOW HIM.

FORMER U.S. ATTORNEY HIMSELF

WROTE ABOUT IT.

HE CALLED IT A DOUBLE STANDARD.

HE SAID THIS IS THE WAY THE GAME

IS PLAYED.

WHEN THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION

LEANS ON WHICH HE SAID HAPPENED

IN 2016, THE DEMOCRATS SAY LOOK

HOW CORRUPT PAUL MANAFORT WAS.

WHEN THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION

GET IS ACCUSED, THEY SAY ABUSE

OF POWER, IMPEACH HIM.

>> CAN I SPEAK TO --

>> BUT THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT.

YOU HAVE THE -- YOU HAVE THE

RADICAL LEFT HYPERVENTILATING,

THE RESISTANCE MOVEMENT, I

THINK, PUSHING NANCY PELOSI TO

PLACES WHERE PREVIOUSLY SHE

HASN'T WANTED TO GO.

BUT REMEMBER, THE DEMOCRATS

ALREADY FORESHADOWED THIS.

THEY FORESHADOWED THIS A LONG

TIME AGO THAT THIS IS EXACTLY

WHAT THEY'RE GOING DO IN THE

PLAYBOOK.

I THINK THE WAY THEY'RE TREATING

DONALD TRUMP IS ABHORRENT.

IT'S FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG TO HAVE

SOMEBODY WITHOUT FIRSTHAND

KNOWLEDGE AS A WHISTLEBLOWER TO

THE POINT WHERE THE SPEAKER IS

SAYING THERE'S A FORMAL

IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY.

WHEN PEOPLE TALK, THEY DON'T

KNOW WHO THE WHISTLEBLOWER IS

AND THEY HAVEN'T EVEN TALKED TO

ANYBODY WHO HAS FIRSTHAND

KNOWLEDGE COMPARED TO JOE BIDEN

WHO'S ON VIDEOTAPE BRAGGING

ABOUT THE FACT THAT HE TWISTED

THE ARMS OF THE UKRAINE

GOVERNMENT TO GET RID OF THE

PROSECUTOR THAT JUST HAPPENED TO

BE LOOKING AT THE COMPANY THAT

HIS SON IS ULTIMATELY INVOLVED

IN?

COME ON?

>> YOU WANTED TO TALK ABOUT THE

DOUBLE STANDARD.

>> I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE

CONGRESSMAN'S FACTS.

HE WAS NOT LOOKING AT AND

SHOWING ANYTHING ABOUT THE

COMPANY THAT HAD HAPPENED A YEAR

BEFORE.

AND, AGAIN, THE PREMISE OF

McCARTHY IS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.

BIDEN IS ACTING AT THE THE

BEHEST OF THE INTERNATIONAL

COMMUNITY, NOT FOR HIS OWN

PURPOSES.

BUT THE WHISTLEBLOWER, QUICKLY.

I'M A WHISTLEBLOWER.

>> COME ON, IT HAPPENED.

>> EXCUSE ME, CONGRESSMAN.

IT'S -- I'M SPEAKING NOW.

I'M A WHISTLEBLOWER WHERE IT'S

ROUTINE FOR WHISTLEBLOWERS TO

COME FORWARD WITH INFORMATION

THAT'S SECOND HAND, THIRD HAND,

THAT'S NOT --

>> THAT DIDN'T USED TO BE THE

POLICY IN THE INTELLIGENCE

COMMUNITY.

>> IT IS.

>> IT DIDN'T USED TO BE.

>> YOU HAVE TO ACCESS THE

EVIDENCE, OF COURSE.

THE NOTION THAT IT'S SECOND

HAND,ITS A ROUTINE FACT ABOUT

WHISTLEBLOWER ACCUSATIONS.
