THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

IF YOU HAVE BEEN PAYING ANY

ATTENTION TODAY, YOU KNOW THE

OUTLINES OF WHAT'S HAPPENING.

THE PRESIDENTS IMPEACHMENT TRIAL

HAS BEGUN IN THE SENATE AND ITS

SIMULCAST ON TELEVISION.

IF YOU WATCHED, THE SITUATION IS

COMPLEX AND TIRESOME AND VERY

BORING.

NO ONE CAN DO THE JOBS THEY WERE

ELECTED TO DO ALL THIS IS IN

PROGRESS.

THAT'S NOT A SIDE EFFECT OF

IMPEACHMENT.

IN MANY WAYS, IT WAS THE POINT

ALL ALONG OF IMPEACHMENT, TO

STALL THE PRESIDENT'S POLICY

AGENDA.

IT'S FRUSTRATING.

SO FRUSTRATING YOU MAY HAVE LOST

SIGHT OF THE REASON WE ARE HERE

IN THE FIRST PLACE.

WHAT IS THAT REASON?

THE ARTICLES BEFORE THE SENATE

ACCUSE THE PRESIDENT OF USE OF

POWER AND OBSTRUCTION OF

CONGRESS, THEY ARE BROAD CHARGES

AND COULD MEAN ANYTHING.

HERE'S WHAT THEY ACTUALLY MEAN.

DONALD TRUMP IS BEING IMPEACHED

BECAUSE HE ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT

WHAT THE VICE PRESIDENT'S SON

WAS BEING PAID HUNDREDS OF

THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR

BY FOREIGNERS FOR WHAT

EFFECTIVELY WAS A NO-SHOW JOB IN

INDUSTRY HE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT.

THE OBVIOUS ANSWER IS IT WAS A

CROOKED DEAL.

AT THE SAME TIME HUNTER BIDEN

WAS GETTING RICH FROM THE

UKRAINIAN ENERGY COMPANY, HIS

FATHER JOE WAS OVERSEEING THE

OBAMA ADMINISTRATION'S UKRAINE

POLICY.

THAT'S CORRUPTION.

THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO

DESCRIBE IT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE

TELLING YOU ON CNN.

IT'S NOT THE ONLY EXAMPLE.

THE BIDEN NAME WAS ALSO USED AT

ONE POINT TO SELL A BOND SCHEME

THAT DEFRAUDED AN AMERICAN

INDIAN TRIBE IN SOUTH DAKOTA.

ONE OF HUNTER BIDEN'S CLOSEST

BUSINESS PARTNERS IS STILL

BATTLING CHARGES IN THAT CASE.

AND THEN THERE'S THE QUESTION OF

JOE BIDEN'S BROTHER FRANK.

ACCORDING TO ABC NEWS, IN 2009,

FRANK BIDEN SIGNED ON AS THE

FRONT MAN FOR A FLORIDA CHARTER

SCHOOL COMPANY CALLED MAVERICKS

FOR EDUCATION.

FRANK BIDEN OPENLY BRAGGED THAT

HIS LAST NAME WAS AN ASSET FOR

THE COMPANY.

THAT'S WHY THEY HIRED HIM OF, OF

COURSE.

HE BRAGGED IT WOULD ASSURE HIM

AUTOMATIC ACCEPTANCE AS THEY

SOUGHT REGULATORY APPROVAL AND

IT DID.

BIDEN'S BROTHER WORE

PRESIDENTIAL CUFFLINKS TO SCHOOL

BOARD MEETINGS.

THE ARRANGEMENT MADE FRANK BIDEN

HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS

IN THE COMPANY'S BEEN ACCUSED OF

MISMANAGING THE SCHOOL AND

INFLATING ENROLLMENT TO SECURE

MORE GOVERNMENT MONEY.

EVENTUALLY THE SCHOOLS WERE

SOLD.

FRANK BIDEN WAS SPECULATING IN

THE CARIBBEAN.

BIDEN BEGAN WORKING WITH THE

SOLAR ENERGY COMPANY SEEKING TO

BUILD PLANTS IN COSTA RICA AND

JAMAICA.

FRANK BIDEN HAD NO EXPERIENCE IN

SOLAR ENERGY.

HE HAD A BROTHER SERVING AS

VICE PRESIDENT.

BOTH THOSE PROJECTS WERE BOOSTED

BY LOANS FROM U.S. GOVERNMENT

BACKED BY YOU, THE TAXPAYER.

AND THEN THERE'S JOE BIDEN

HIMSELF.

IN AN ERA WHERE MILLIONS OF

AMERICANS ARE SUFFOCATING UNDER

MOUNTAINS OF HIGH INTEREST DEBT,

BIDEN SPENT HIS ENTIRE CAREER IN

THE SENATE SERVING CREDIT CARD

COMPANIES.

THE SAME TIME, MAKING IT HARDER

FOR REGULAR PEOPLE TO GET OUT OF

THEIR DEBT AND BANKRUPTCY.

IN RETURN FOR THAT SERVICE, THE

CREDIT CARD COMPANY MBNA GAVE

HUNTER BIDEN A JOB.

HERE IS NOTED NONRIGHT WINGER

TOM BROKAW CONFRONTING

JOE BIDEN.

>> YOUR SON WAS WORKING FOR THE

COMPANY THE SAME TIME.

IN RETROSPECT, WASN'T IT

INAPPROPRIATE FOR SOMEONE LIKE

YOU IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THIS TO

HAVE YOUR SON COLLECTING MONEY

FROM A BIG CREDIT CARD COMPANY

WHILE YOU ARE ON THE BOARD?

>> ABSOLUTELY NOT.

>> Tucker: SERVANT TO THE

CREDIT CARD COMPANIES?

THINK OF SOMETHING MORE THAN

DISGUSTING, MORE HARMFUL.

SELLING LIQUOR TO CHILDREN?

IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE WHAT'S

WORSE THAN THAT.

EVEN LEFTISTS ARE OFFENDED.

BERNIE SANDERS CAMPAIGN

SURROGATE RODE "BIDEN'S CAREER

WAS BANKROLLED BY THE

CREDIT CARD INDUSTRY.

HE DELIVERED FOR BY SPEARHEADING

A BANKRUPTCY BILL THAT MADE IT

HARDER FOR AMERICANS TO REDUCE

THEIR DEBT AND HELP CAUSED THE

FINANCIAL CRISIS.

HE NOT ONLY AUTHORED AND VOTED

FOR THAT BILL, HE SPLIT WITH

BARACK OBAMA AND LED THE BATTLE

TO VOTE DEMOCRATIC AMENDMENTS."

THAT'S ALL TRUE.

LOOK IT UP.

IS BIDEN APOLOGIZING FOR WHAT HE

DID?

NO, HE'S NOT.

SOMEHOW BERNIE SANDERS IS

APOLOGIZING.

FOR THE CRIME OF TELLING THE

TRUTH ABOUT JOE BIDEN.

THE ENTIRE DEMOCRATIC

ESTABLISHMENT HAD LANDED ON

BERNIE SANDERS WITH BOTH FEET

FOR DAYS HE'S BEEN SAVAGED BY

ESTABLISHMENT ROBOTS LIKE

PAUL KRUGMAN OF

"THE NEW YORK TIMES."

"

KRUGMAN TWEETED.

THERE IS NOTHING TO DISTRUST

ABOUT THE COLUMN.

IT WAS FACTUALLY ACCURATE IN

EVERY WAY.

SANDERS GOT THE MESSAGE.

APOLOGIZE OR WE WILL DESTROY

YOUR CANDIDACY.

HE PROBABLY GROVELED FOR MERCY.

>> I'VE KNOWN HIM FOR MANY, MANY

YEARS.

HE IS A DECENT GUY.

WE HAVE STRONG DISAGREEMENTS BUT

ARE NUMBER OF ISSUES AND WILL

ARGUE THOSE DISAGREEMENTS.

BUT IT'S ACTUALLY NOT MY VIEW

THAT JOE IS CORRUPT IN ANY WAY.

>> Tucker: JOE IS NOT

CORRUPTED ANYWAY, HE REPEATED.

THAT'S NOT A CAMPAIGN MESSAGE.

IT'S A HOSTAGE TAPE.

TAPED UNDER DURESS.

WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE?

SIMPLE.

THE SELF-SUSTAINING ORGANISM

THAT IS THE DEMOCRATIC

ESTABLISHMENT IS DUMPING

ANTIBODIES INTO THE SYSTEM TO

PROTECT ITSELF.

BERNIE SANDERS, LIKE

DONALD TRUMP, IS A THREAT TO

THEIR POWER.

JOE BIDEN IS NOT A THREAT TO

THEIR POWER.

IT'S LIKE THEY CARE ABOUT

JOE BIDEN AS A PERSON.

IF THEY CARED ABOUT JOE BIDEN,

THEY WOULD'VE CONVINCED HIM NOT

TO RUN.

BIDEN IS IN NO CONDITION TO BE

PRESIDENT OR EVEN TO RUN FOR THE

CHILD, AS YOU'VE NOTICED.

HE IS HUMILIATING HIMSELF AND

HIS FAMILY.

FOR NOW, BIDEN IS ALL THEY'VE

GOT.

IF HILLARY CLINTON JUMPS INTO

THE RACE OR MICHELLE OBAMA,

BIDEN WILL BE TOSSED ASIDE AND

FORGOTTEN.

THEY ARE VESSELS FOR TEMPORARY

USE.

WHAT THE LEFT CARES ABOUT IS

REGAINING CONTROL OF THE

COUNTRY.

THAT'S WHY THEY WILL DO

WHATEVER'S NECESSARY TO PROTECT
