biden: god love you! how are you? how are you doing? mr. biden: hey, low ready, this is joe biden. i'm here with your daughter. we were reminiscing. i'm well. nice to talk to you. i bet she is freaking out. mr. biden: i remember. god love you. your daughter tells me you are doing well. oh, great1 that's great. maybe i will get to see you before this effort is over. >> you well. you will. mr. biden: ok. i hope so too. well, i need you. if you need me in there, i need you to get me in there. thank you. hey, mama. i'm going to hand you back. mr. biden: hey, man, what's your name? hey, luke. how old are you? where am i going? >> watch the van. watch the van. watch the van. mr. biden: good to see you, pal. [laughter] mr. biden: that is pretty good, man. you got it. come on, guys. >> watch out. watch out for the car. mr. biden: can't afford to lose you. >> we are going to try to get you through here, there will be a lot of people. mr. biden: how are you? >> have a good day, joe. >> come on, you guys. mr. biden: how are you doing, young man? 'ya?how are what is your name? >> everybody kne

let's begin with the bidens and ukraine from the top. >> well, hunter biden is joe biden's son. john, that still alive, he lost beau biden tragically, until his father became vice president, he was a lobbyist in washington d.c., working for the on-line gambling industry, he had no background overseas in any of these area, once his father became vice president high started a private investment firm, half of capital provised by chris hynes, that john kerry's stepson, and another partner john kerry's financial co-chair in 2004. ukraine part begins in 2014, in february you remember pro-russia president, driven from power, putin starts glekin flexing his muscles. obama administration responded by saying, we're going to come and help ukraine, and the point person on obama administration policy is vice president joe biden. who goes to ukraine almost immediately. two months afterrian - --ian cos driven from po power. the company decides a great idea to hire the vice president's son as a consult an and board member, hunter biden has no background in energy or ukraine, and hired to help t

biden is corrupt. trump is not. >> sean: and i'd like to know what did barack obama know about all of this. sunday nights, full hour. life, liberty. peter peered up next, my exclusive interview. vice president pence weighs in on this very thing. biden, the family dealings, ukraine, china, and the controversy over the whistle-blower. ♪ to put on our website? i mean i would have but i'm a commercial vehicle so i don't have hands... or a camera...or a website. should we franchise? is the market ready for that? can we franchise? how do you do that? meg! oh meg! we should do that thing where you put the business cards in the fishbowl and somebody wins something. -meg: hi. i'm here for... i'm here for the evans' wedding. -we've got the cake in the back, so, yeah. -meg: thank you. -progressive knows small business makes big demands. -you're not gonna make it, you're not gonna make it! ask her if we can do her next wedding too! -so we'll design the insurance solution that fits your business. -on second thoug

>> i wasn't trying to get dirty information on biden. biden was in our way. biden had the prosecutor fired who was investigating the collusion. that prosecutor, the new prosecutor, bought and paid for -- who is corrupt -- dismissed the case on hunter biden and on a company where a lot of the dirty information, including false information, came from. and if you think i'm just making this up, the american swamp media avoids the fact that in december of 2018 a ukrainian court found that there was illegal interference in the election. they named the particular parliamentarian who was guilty, and they say it was information illegally given to the hillary clinton campaign. that is a court decision. not rudy giuliani, but a ukrainian court. and i have four more affidavits like this. these are people who want to go under oath that say that false information and dirty information about the trump campaign was given to the american embassy, the democratic national committee, operateoffs for hillary clinton and the new york times. maria: so this goes back to the origins

. >> he also asked to look into joe and hunter biden saying biden was bragging he stopped prosecution so if you can look into it it sounds pretty horrible to me. sources who actually know how presidential phone calls work say this krantz ripped was standard procedure, however he administration for decades has called for leaders and also told fox news they are confident it is accurate. we will learn more when the acting dni is on capitol hill. >> we will watch closely, thank you. this fox news alert, republican chris towery serves on the house intelligence committee says the whistleblower complaint has been declassified, urging everyone to read it. we don't have it yet. joining me, chad program. this comes at a big hearing tomorrow but you got a tip that this was going to be declassified, sounds like it is, we are waiting to see. >> stuart set on air in the last hour so i got in touch with him. he had left the bureau to say what do we know about this and all we know is it has been declassified and this is why this is important. when joe mcguire, acting director of national intelligence

but from the biden perspective, they'll tell you, well, that goes to show you can't go after joe biden. you pay a price. kamala went up in the polls and she settled back down or below. all the other campaigns have looked at that and said all right, how do you go after biden, but have it stick? first thing is you have to do it subtly, but biden himself is very well liked by democrats. >> right. >> if it's really too tough and obnoxious, that could backfire on you. >> you don't want to look mean. >> people like the guy. that's very hard. and the second part is you have to have a post-debate strategy. >> right. >> it has to play into some message and larger theme about why you're the candidate. things i'm looking for is someone like -- do people take on biden's bond with obama? do they take on any of the big legislation of the obama era and the obama/biden record. does castro go back and talk about their sort of spotty checkered record on immigration. >> right. >> does, you know, klobuchar attack, go after biden on any of that? she really has been very, very hard to get her to say anythin

biden's campaign. let's take a look. >> the left knows that biden's sonn is a problem for him. this is why when hillary clinton was running, these stories first originated back one hillary clinton was trying to make sure that biden didn't get into the race.now that these han resurrected, i don't know who came up withthy is a whistleblower, is not a partisan we want to hear from the whistleblower but it sure looks likee the scheme backfired and it looks like this is the end of bead biden's campaign. >> end of his campaign? >> i really do. >> sean: the congressman is right. joe biden and his family should be very worried tonight. let's pay very close attention here, because here is what we know. thanks to the investigative work of reporter, john solomon, we can i look out a very damning timeline. we start in 2014. this is when president obama appointed him to leave theed a s iefforts in ukraine. april, 2014, biden's son scored a lucrative position on board a gas company. according to numerous reports he

biden: there is a solution. i have seen nothing care the president has no fortitude to deal with this. he knows better. his instinct was to say yes, we will do something. let's do it. come on. this is disgraceful. is disgraceful what has happened. reporter: the current vice president, mike pence, is in contact with the attorney general. and is in part of gun violent legislation that will include expediting a penalty for mass murderers. what is your stance on that? mr. biden: it is irrelevant. this is what we have always done before in the past. what you do when you cannot get something do is rational, you increase the penalty. do with theng to with rational gun policy. death penaltyhe would stop the white supremacist who killed everyone in texas? i don't think so. reporter: you are here on labor day. workers have more federal labor law protects which -- protections, should be allowed to unionize? mr. biden: the answer is i think they should. what is happening here and iowa and across the country is that non-unio

but there is something with biden. were gonna blow this out of the water right here on the show tomorrow night. there is something with durbin, leahy, manila does. and murphy also. >> you know it's funny when they report the news, it's fake. the acting dni story is a total fabrication as per the acting dan acting dni himself but when they report real news, they reporting in violation of what they say in their own principle principles. they are saying this conversation with the ukrainian leader which i see nothing wrong with. we can see the transcript. that that it's a problem but when barack obama actually got information, looking at the headline here in my phone. cnn politics. let me read this "british intelligence past trump associates communications with russians to u.s. counterparts." when the british intelligence gave information to obama about trump, cnn reported that like it was the greatest thing ever. and it was all fake news against trump. they have no principles. one more thing, remember they've admitted get

don't worry about whether or not joe biden -- you think joe biden can beat trump. we can all beat trump. they're going to have to actually meet a lot of other criteria too, which is why this has been a lot more difficult than many of them have expected. >> ryan, don't get mad at me. you know how it works. if you can respond quickly, but i just want -- can we just put up the quote? let's put up the quote and then i want you to respond to this because you talk about biden's campaign. they think that this smacks of elitism, right? you said that warren and most of her local supporters believe that biden's voters -- you're saying that the people who are biden's voters, they don't think that they know what is right for them, and they don't understand their support for them when they're fully aware of why they're supporting him. >> yeah. i think this is a really interesting debate because if you talk to the other campaigns, the thing you hear about over and over again is, oh, those biden voters, they are just supporting him because he's the most famous guy in the race. it

biden: good to see you. vice pres. biden: the best i can do is spaghetti. we have to restore america's soul, build back the middle class, and we have to pick our heads up and remember who we are -- the united states of america. there's nothing we can't do. [inaudible] vice pres. biden: what's your name? >> [inaudible] vice pres. biden: good to see you. [crowd chatter] [crowd chatter] vice pres. biden: pardon me? i like them well-done, but don't tell my dad. [crowd chatter] >> let's go, joe! [crowd chatter] [cheers] [crowd chatter] vice pres. biden: all right. thanks, man. [drums] [crowd chanting] [drums] vice pres. biden: all right, watch out. we will do it real quick. thank you. >> we need a walkway on both signs, ok? >> thank you. >> joe, do you mind? thank you so much, sir. that's the winner. >> can i take a picture with you, our future president? tomorrow is my birthday. vice pres. biden: happy birthday. you're turning 40. >> i wish. we wish you the best of luck. biden: thank you. hi, how are you? >> good. can you take a selfie with us? vice pres. biden

the one who has the problem is biden. if you look at what biden did. biden did what they would like to have me do. one problem. i didn't do it. what biden did is a disgrace, what his son did is disgrace. the son took money from ukraine and china, a lot of money from china. china would love to see -- they would think of nothing they would rather see than biden get in. they would have themselves a deal. let me çjust tell you what bid did was wrong. [inaudible question] >> president trump: you will see because what we are doing is we want honesty. when we deal with a country we want honesty. with the new president you'll see much more honesty in the ukraine. that's what we're looking for. we're supporting a country. we want to make sure that country is honest. very important to talk about corruption. if you don't talk about corruption why would you give money to a country that is corrupt? one of the reasons the new president got elected is he was going to stop corruption. so it's very important that on occasion you speak to somebody about corruption. ve

biden? >> no. actually, i didn't. >> you never asked anything about hunter biden, you never asked anything about joe biden? >> the only thing i asked about joe biden was to get to the bottom of how it was that lutsenko dismiss the case against -- >> so you did ask ukraine to look into joe biden? >> of course i did. >> joe biden can be involved in bribery. joe biden's son can get $1.5 billion from china and you won't cover it. and you want to cover some ridiculous charge that i urge the ukrainian government to investigate corruption. well, i did. and i'm proud of it. >> you just admitted it. did the president talk to the ukrainian president about what he wanted done with joe biden and what he wanted done with paul manafort? >> i have no idea. i don't know if he did and i wouldn't care if he did. he had every right to do it as the president of the united states. >> he is talking about a fool's errand, but that might be rudy's way of getting ahead of this story. with details of the july phone c

, you never asked anything about joe biden -- >> the only thing i asked about joe biden is to get to the bottom of how it was that the man appointed dismissed the case against -- >> so did you ask ukraine to look into joe biden? >> of course i did. >> you just said you didn't. you have to see past the passion and see the purpose. giuliani came with a plan to provide cover for the president, which we will deconstruct for you tonight in detail. and how do we see the proof of it? well, just today. the president followed his lead. he did not deny that he, too, personally asked the foreign government to probe his political opponent. listen. >> it doesn't matter what i discussed but i will say this, somebody ought to look into joe biden's statement because it was disgraceful where he talked about billions of dollars that he's not giving to a certain country unless a certain prosecutor is taken off the case. so somebody ought to look into that. >> we will show you why what the president discussed does matter and why he discussed it matters even more. and the facts and questions that are dri

situation and hunter biden? okay? >> juan: oh my gosh. >> jesse: you brought up the fact that hunter had a crack pipe found on him the other day. leave that out of that for argument sake. when donald trump became president, his sons stopped doing international business. when joe biden became vice president, his family started doing international business. >> katie: exactly. >> jesse: when he goes over there, joe biden and he starts pushing new natural gas deals in ukraine, like a month later his son gets this katyushay gi cushy gigginge millions of dollars and joe biden uses taxpayer money to threaten them to fire the prosecutor. or when he flies them over on air force 2 to beijing and brings home 1.5 billion with a b from the chinese state national bank and no one asks any questions? all the president is doing is saying hey, maybe there is some corruption out there. we need to look into if we are going to give you guys an additional $400 million to defend yourselves against the russians, which by the way, obama and b

you never asked anything about joe biden -- >> the only thing i asked about joe biden is to get to the bottom of how it was that lutsenko, who was appointed, dismissed the case against antac. >> so you did ask ukraine to look into joe biden? >> of course i did. >> today joe biden called trump and giuliani's allegations not credible, and he added this. >> t-- >> late this afternoon, biden issued a state about these latest reports on trump's conversations with the ukrainian leader, which said in part and we quote, if these reports are true, then there is truly no bottom to president trump's willingness to abuse his power and debase our country. donald trump should immediately release the transcript of the call in question and direct the office of the director of national intelligence to stop stonewalling and release the whistle-blower notification to the congress. a lot to talk about, as we say, as we end another week. here for our leadoff discussion on a friday night, frank figliuzzi, former fbi assistant director for counterintelligence. shannon pettypiece, veteran journalist, senior w

if you watched the debate last night and you were in the biden camp, you weren't in the biden camp last night. i do think castro's chance of being on the ticket as vice president went down some last night. but overall i thought the debate, you know, was one of those kind of things that everyone has a different interpretation. there was no dominant theme that emerged. from my point of view, if you never heard anything about democratic politics, walked in for the first time and watched that last night, you would say, you know, second tier candidates doing pretty well. looked better, more relaxed, more pointed. first tier candidates tend to be more defensive. they try to rush things too much. if they could just slow down and be more conversational, you would be more welcome in living rooms across the country. >> beto o'rourke may have saved his campaign for a little while here at least. let's listen to this moment that stood out to everyone on guns. >> hell, yes we're going to take ar-15, ak-47, we're not going to allow it to be used against fellow americans anymore. >> all right. so democ

biden's time in iowa. but also in places like south carolina where i am today and also nevada and new hampshire. we're not leaving anything up for grabs, chris. we think we're running a very aggressive and bold campaign, and we look forward to taking that message to every person in the country. again, we're in this for the long haul, and we're in it to win it. we know this isn't going to be over -- definitely not going to be over in january because folks haven't voted yet. but it won't be over in february, chris. this is the long haul. we're ready. i don't know about some other campaigns, but we're here for it. >> it's congress' job to decide whether or not to investigate and come up with articles of impeachment if they reach a certain level of sufficiency. but it is the responsibility of everybody who wants to be president to have an opinion on it. does joe biden believe that this president is worthy of impeachment? >> vice president biden believes that there's a process to go through, and part of that pr

and joe biden. nobody has denied that is the case. there is a whistleblower who wants to bring this information, he has a whistleblower complaint to congress, and the white house is preventing that. if there is really nothing there, why shouldn't the white house just let congress -- let the gang of eight, the intelligence leaders of the house and senate and look at the whistleblower complaint and if it is as innocent as you say that would clean it up. >> i think that would be a terrible precedent. conversations between world leaders are meant to be confidential. if any time someone for political reasons raised a question and all of a sudden those conversations were disclosed publicly, and when you disclose to congress, lots of times they leak to the press, why would world leaders want to have conversations together? the real issue here is this was an important week. it is a very important week. what went on with iran, the maximum pressure campaign. this is a conversation between two world leaders wi

biden to old? -- too old? he looked pretty spry with bernie sanders next to him. david: joe biden has been number one in the polls consistently throughout. what do he and the other candidates need to do? looking forward to iowa, new hampshire, south carolina, what can they do to maintain their position, improve their position? jeanne: at this point, biden was helped an awful lot by amy klobuchar in the first half hour on health care. what we are seeing is a real debate in the democratic party between the progressive wing and the moderates. i would say biden and warranty to keep moving where they are going. they have to do well. cruz, ted cruz did well in iowa. it helps to do well in iowa. biden could have difficulty in new hampshire, only because maureen and sanders -- warren and sanders are senators from neighboring states. iden is 25 points ahead, he has to remain in that position into california. i misspoke. you should have corrected me. jeanne: you never misspeak! david: one of the things we sa

biden. what to make of new poll results in the 2020 race. >>> plus the new developments this week in the president's legal battle to keep his financial footprint hidden. >>> and breaking news, pro democracy demonstrations in hong kong take a violent turn. >>> but first to the showdown between president trump and former vice president joe biden over the president reportedly pressuring in a phone call the ukrainian leader to investigate biden's son. biden and trump now going after each other on twitter with highly edited videos of news footage to undermine each other. here is come of that. >> natural conflict of interest there. i think joe biden will have to answer for. >> the president of the united states using his presidential power to go to a foreign government to get op o or somebody he thinks he might have to run against. >> no reason to pay hunter biden $50,000 a month. >> it's a complete distortion of the facts. >> a claim that has long since been debunked. >> you can tell he's really

there's no benefit here to biden. it's poll numbers are decreasing-- >> and as you talk about this, president trump is teflon to any claims because of the mueller investigation, is that a fair summing up? >> he's been the teflon don his whole life, but he's certainly immune to these accusations of colluding with a foreign power. he's immune to much of what we've heard the last three years. could you say it's fair or unfair, that's how it's playing politically. a lot of people think there's unfair attacks on president trump and now i think the light is going to turn on joe biden, any attack on president trump, he's old, he is with a foreign power. and they've mid a tactical error. leland: he said he never talked with hunter biden about his business dealings. who is going to be more motivated to come out to the polls, particularly if it's a biden-trump race and if vice-president biden is the nominee. democrats 69% of them are extremely motivated, only 63% of republicans extremely motivated. problem? >> well, it's still

biden. cnn's kaitlan collins joins me live from the white house with this breaking news. kaitlan, what are we learning? >> reporter: the president today said he did not deny discussing joe biden during the last known phone call with the president of ukraine. a phone call that came at the end of july. but now the "wall street journal" is reporting that during that phone call about eight times the president pressured the cranan president to work with his personal attorney rudy giuliani who you saw on our air last night on a probe looking into joe biden because according to the journal the president told the ukrainian president that people in washington wanted to know if the allegations were true or not. that comes after just hours ago in the oval office the president said he didn't know if it that was phone call that prompted a whistleblower to complain. president trump's second state visit overshadowed today as he faced questions about a whistleblower complaint he made an alarming commitment

biden of today is the same biden of 1988. yes, he's 76 years old, yes, there is, you know, clearly he's older and there's probably things that people should be concerned about. but it is for the voters to decide. and we can't go after each other. and also the base doesn't want to see that. they want to beat donald trump. they don't want to see these guys going after each other. and that's what's going to be really problematic for democrats. >> i mean, listen, all's fair in love, war and presidential primaries. i'm not suggesting that he did something that's politically out of bounds. i'm suggesting he did something that was politically unwise. i don't think this helped him. and i think if biden -- i take the notes that anything can happen. i think that's right. but if biden emerges as the democrats' nominee, julian castro will have weakened him in some way among some viewers. >> look, i think in life and politics we often wrongly conflate age and fitness. whatever castro was trying to do last night demonstrated that he was wr

>> well, that's good for joe biden independe biden. this is a battle for the soul of the democratic party. is it a progressive party with big programs, big ideas or big price tags or is it a party that's more centrist, more moderate and that's the battle that is starting to take shape here. >> all right. i appreciate both of your time very much. thank you. >> and next, breaking news. the pentagon just announcing deployment of troops to the middle east. so why? plus as millions take to the streets in what may be the largest climate protest in history, sanjay gupta has a special report you will only see here and it is about the climate crisis and what you eat. your actual nutrition now. performance comes in lots of flavors. there's the amped-up, over-tuned, feeding-frenzy-of sheet-metal-kind. and then there's performance that just leaves you feeling better as a result. that's the kind lincoln's about. ♪ you can stream and scroll through other people's vacations, or you can be the kind of person that books their own vacation. a booker.

did joe biden's push to remove the prosecutor help hunter biden's employer? allies were relieved by the dismissal of the prosecutor. at the prosecutor was ouster mr. biden had sought according to people familiar with the situation. he was not aggressively pursuing investigations into him or buries one, but the oligarch's allies say he was using the threat to try to solicit bribes from his team and that left the oligarch steam weary of dealing with the prosecutor. want to take some time and read from "the new york times," fact-checking on all of this. let's bring in our panel. chris stirewalt, politics editor at fox news. susan page, washington bureau chief at usa today, and katie pavlich, news editor at townhall.com. they're kind of two pieces to this, the president pushing back hard today, susan, on this phone call. >> that's right. there is a move now, the president suggested maybe he will release the transcript of the phone call. i think there's some good reasons why he shouldn't do that. >> bret: being that foreign leaders -- >> foreign leaders expect to

anybody think biden didn't raise the game? >> i think joe biden certainly showed a lot more fire. he was less on the defensive than he has been in some of the previous debate nights. it was the first time he shared the stage with senator elizabeth warren who comes off as a much more effective manager for the progressive wing of the democratic party that bernie sanders -- >> why, why is she better? >> she delivers it with a great deal of clarity. she had a strong line, she said, i never met any american who likes their health insurance companies. that's something that will stick with people in terms of why she's offering big, bold proposals. that's still the debate that played out, whether or not they want to lead a grassroots progressive movement or whether democratic voters are more driven by that incremental change, that steady hand that joe biden and some of the more moderate candidates are advocating. >> all right, so play to that, but almost anybody speak it up tonight? >> i would actually push back then against that a bit -- >> the warren part or the biden? >> the warren par

you said i went there to get dirt on joe biden. do you know what i found out about joe biden? do you know what i told my colleague? they're going to cover this up. i got a nice straight case of ukrainian collusion. the minute i say biden, that washington press corps is going to go nuts. they've been covering up for years. john: now you're straying into areas -- >> no, i'm not. i'm straying into what is wrong with us today -- john: we need to point out that the prosecutor who was appointed after shokin was fired, resurrected, reanimated the case and found that hunter biden was, in fact, paid millions of dollars, but he said that the board was able to pay a board member whatever they wanted, and he didn't see anything wrong with that. >> so distorted. john: i'm just stating the facts. >> if you did any work, you'd find out this is the prosecutor that biden put n. there's a newspaper article in which he approves him when he's appointed. doesn't that strike you as odd that the vice president would approve a particular prosecutor? did you ever bother to look? let me finish -- john:

and hunter biden. when it is appropriate? >> you characterize it. john: that is the way it appears. >> no, it does not. that is how pro-biden media lines it up. someone said, this i this is in. -- between you and your client. because biden had the guy fired. his statement on record, laze press could go read it. there are 3 videotapes on record. available on here nobody has covered for 5 months, this town protects joe biden. family has been taking money from his public was on the for years, 1.5 billion from china, our vice president, is supposed to be impartially, and independently negotiating for us. and the kid he takes him on air force 2 to china. john: in 2013. >> the kid unfortunately is a drug addict, china did not give 1.5 billion to his kid biden's kid, a recovering drug addict, carries stepson -- kerry's stepson and "whitey" bulger's nephew, look it up. john: this is a company called rosemont -- let me come back. >> for a second, white "whitey" bulger's nephew, from china that does not shock yo

or tied joe biden. this is usually thought of as the gold standard poll of iowa, something that a lot of people look to to see what the lay of the land is there, and so she is certainly -- her organization in iowa this weekend, i was at the iowa polk county democrat steak fry this weekend. she had a very good reception. she had a selfie line there after her speech, which she usually does after she gives a major speech. was taking photos with as many people who wanted one. this is something that i think is displaying -- i'm seeing this on the ground as well as in the polls, there's a lot of enthusiasm for elizabeth warren right now. i think the question is whether she will retain this. she seems to be taking a lot of former bernie sanders supporters that are boosting her up, but whether she can attract people who might be a little bit on the fence about some of her proposals, like medicare for all, which would eliminate private health insurance, and she has been criticized recently from other democrats a

look, i respect vice president biden. i've known vice president for biden. of course, served in the obama administration with him. i think that in many ways he's a good candidate. that's going to be up for the voters to decide. what i was pointing out is that he had denied saying the words buy in even though he did say the words buy in. and that that's significant to leaving 10 million people uncovered. so like i said, i'm willing to have that conversation about whether we should cover everybody or leave 10 million people in this country uncovered. every single day of the week. look, i'm in this race to fight for what i believe in and to fight for the most vulnerable people in our country. and i'm not going to back down on that. you know, i don't care what the d.c. washington establishment says. i'm going to fight for the people who need fighting for in this campaign, win or lose. >> let me go on to another topic you took -- you went out of your way to make sure. you were answering a moderator's question that senator sanders didn't. it was on the issue of ve

and hunter biden. if his name was hunter smith, no one would have hired him. he wanted have found a billion dollars in china.an oh lig, a ie wouldn't be hiring -- oligarc inucane wouldn't be hiring him. why do you have a vice president who was running for president and who has never won in the democratic polls.why are they ng a. have who says you have to fire season orir' not getting the money. why is no one up in arms about that and why is that not being investigated? >> sean: well said. no background in oil, energy, or gas.atno background in private s wit. pretty good gig. obviously, he's pretty well connected. amazing thing happens. he has no background at all in private equity. the chinese government company they give him a billion-dollar deal.whitey bulger is involved. his son is involved in that. there is a great indicator that maybe things aren't great. no background. i would think goldman sachs or any of the big banks might be considering they had no experience. >> kevin: but they weren't walki

where are joe biden's documents? let's put forth the proof that they really thought this guy had the evidence. he has not done that. >> sean: i don't think it's possible. we are going to have you back tomorrow and get in even more detail. you've been busy with this all day, this is only the beginning of 450 pages.john solomon, than. here with reaction former u.s. attorney for the district of columbia joe digenova. a former deputy assistant attorney general victoria toensing. you heard what he said, you see what is reported, it is prettyep obvious there are a billion reasons they fired a guy in six? >> we've known from the very beginning mr. shokin was not a corrupt prosecutor. we've known he was removed from office under pressure from vice president biden because he was investigating the vice president's son and because of his connection to burisma holdings. it's precisely why the democrats have undertaken this new move against the president of the united states with his corrupt allegation that there was something wr

if biden collapses, when biden collapses, all of this stuff. he has been the one in the cross hairs from the beginning of this race. and he has with stood all of these attacks. and i don't think tonight -- i think he seemed presidential. i don't think he's going to move after tonight. we'll see. all i would add is i worked for a president who said -- >> we're going to elevate. >> the bitterness thrks pettiness, the incentives to attack. we have to be bigger. we have to speak honestly. we have to act decisively. that's what i want to do for you as president of the united states. thank you. >> here we are with beto o'rourke. he says that might move towards maybe something close. do you think there is a chance that we can have a supreme court ruling after helder that said you have an individual right to a gun. forget about mu lieshilitias an that stuff in the constitution. we can have a supreme court allowing the federal government to demand the selling of assault rifles back to the government? >> i do. i think the precedent and common sense is pr

he was injured in an accident in boy, he datedung the spouse of beau biden after beau biden passed away and was married for second time. but clearly the biden campaign knew there were stories that would come out. guest: they did and i'm sure they have assembled their talking points on how to deal with that but i think what biden needs to do to try to reverse ignore these-- or more personal questions is very much focused on these issues. i think they have very much been running this two-way race between him and trump. it seems like he is very much in a general election mindset. he needs to be prepared to answer these questions from we know thate president trump will absolutely bring up these questions in the gloves will come off when it comes to personal family issues. host: daniel? guest: we've seen him go after -- we've seen president trump go after family issues before and it seems to be a strategy here as well. i don't think in the primary former vice president biden has to worry about attacks from his competitors. it's really going to be a republican chorus that's going to keep high

, joe biden, and ukraine. today the president urged reporters to look into it. cnn's sara murray has more. >> reporter: years after joe biden ousted a corruption ukrainian prosecutor, he was still touting his accomplishment. >> i looked at him and said i'm leaving in six hours. if the prosecutor's not fired, you're not getting the money. well, son of a bitch, he got fired. >> reporter: as vice president, biden threatened to withhold a billion dollars in u.s. aid if the country refused to oust its top prosecutor. by 2015, the obama administration, the international monetary fund, and other western leaders had grown frustrated that the prosecutor, vict victor shokin failed to crack down on corruption in ukraine. this is what has president trump and allies like rudy giuliani all riled up. at the same time that biden was cracking down on that ukrainian prosecutor, his son, hunter biden, was serving on the board of a ukrainian natural gas company. trump's allies claim biden wanted that ukrainian prosecutor out beca

those are joe biden's words. that is concerning to me. >> bret: if the president did as is being reported, "the washington post" now does match "the wall street journal," he mentioned numerous times to the president of ukraine while the u.s. is considering $250 million in aid to ukraine, is that implicit quid pro quo to get this investigation kick-start a? >> you don't have any of the facts. let's wait until next thursday. let's go through the appropriate channels. how many times have we learned this lesson before? let's just say -- i'm not going to speculate that it happened. >> bret: let me just say, would something like that be a problem for you? >> you know what will be a problem for me? for me to speculate without knowing the facts. i want our president of the united states to have relations with every country. i want our president to be able to talk to those leaders and i think it is inappropriate that all these people are going to listen to these conversations and selectively put something out and then hav

son, hunter biden there. so, we're at the beginning of this story. we don't know where it's going to end up, and we've only heard from the president through twitter. we still haven't heard from him on camera today, but joe biden clearly angered and clearly going on the offense. alex? >> quite clearly so. hans nichols from the white house. thank you for that. joining me now, california representative john garamendi. w welcome back to the broadcast, sir. i know you heard the strong reaction from joe biden. in fact, we saw you through the camera nodding your head to that. what is your take to his response? >> he's doing exactly what should be done and what congress should also be doing. we need to push back on this president. this president's conduct is absolutely outrageous, most of it is illegal. quite probablied it engage in extort i extorting the new president, selenski, of ukraine, eight times. he did -- you notice the president didn't deny that he had said those things. we want the tapes. we want the infor

mccain also made clear her affection for joe biden. daughter megan mccain also spoke of biden. curt volker, now a star impeachment inquiry witness because giuliani says he has text messages to back him up where giuliani sought dirt on that same family friend joe biden. look for an announcement from arizona state university where the mccain institute is headquartered as soon as tomorrow about volker's fate at that institute. up next don't go anywhere. a very busy "state of the union" with jake tapper. his guests include hakem jeffries, gym jordan and cory booker. thanks for sharing your sunday. have a great day. do you have concerns about mild memory loss related to aging? prevagen is the number one pharmacist-recommended memory support brand. you can find it in the vitamin aisle in stores everywhere. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. ♪ (music plays throughout)♪ ♪ if you have moderate or psoriatic arthritis, little things can be a big deal. that's why there's otezla. otezla is not an injection or a cream. it's a pill that treats differently. for psoriasis, 75% cleare

, hunter biden, his son was involved with who wanted to meet joe biden. and then hunter went with his father and joe biden and introduced his father, the vice president, to this asian partner who ultimately was arrested for corruption. and the partner's soash dwrait waassociate wasarrested for cor. this is dirty, dirty, dirty. in the end when everything comes up, if biden did play a central role in the energy policy in the ukraine and he's not going to try to turn the this around on donald trump, that's the biggest mistake of his life right now. >> judge, here's the interesting thing. i don't want to improperly accuse people of improper behavior. but adam schiff and his colleagues continue to spin the narrative over and over again of which they're guilty of. they'll accuse the president of colluding with rawsh sha. the only people that worked with with the russians was the dnc. i would think that the only people that actually worked with the ukrainians is that same group, the democrats and the hillary clinton campaign. and i think you'll see that. i welco

leaked information or a juicy information not about joe biden but about donald trump. for people who are upset with his politics and this could be a way to move us away from when joe biden might be involved in if anything. the founder of the me too movement and for all its slapped with a fine for defaming a media executive he accused the misconduct authority and more of the right. bolton's appointment centromeres around washington to the least among those who are out of government and many of those in government because it is a long track record of being a very strong polemical bursary a man who understands how to make the government were but very much polarization huish. various times arguing for invading iran for invading north korea etc and this was very much not what the president wanted to go so why do you point to me as a bit of a risk to. go since all a little bit messed up by our d.n.a. in some way on over the complete i'm not sure it isn't such a great thing you know i'm sure you are better now than when he had hair. well it's nice of you to say so but i do i

30, that's worrisome for biden campaign. they both have big challenges, biden that he has energy to win and reach out to progressives and warren has to show that she's not too scary to win and reach out to moderates. heather: kimberly. >> if democrats double down on elizabeth warren it's going to be horrendous because medicare for all is a hard sale, moderates and independents won't be interested in that, the first time that we saw iowa poll not actually pan out n2003 we saw howard peek and john kerry ended up the nominee, president obama was the third place and we know what happened there. so i think honestly they should think about whether she can actually pull other states, iowa is predominantly white and doesn't represent the rest of the country, i don't think they should get their hopes up on this poll in my opinion. >> so, i mean, there's still a lot of time obviously but as you guys know, we watch the polls and the numbers, a lot of people months ago were expecting joe biden to perhaps not have strong a lead as he had

the reason that you bring up joe biden with the past issues of ukraine and hunter biden, hunter biden is not one someone who has a lot of expertise becomes highly involved in ukrainian energy company, issues involved. the new yorker has written about it, i commend that you read that article. >> mention that that he made a lot of money, rudy giuliani, back in the program in april. he got into it with cnn's chris cuomo. >> so you asked him to look into joe biden? >> of course, i did. >> you just said you didn't? >> involved joe biden in massive bribery scene, it's sad to watch what happened here. >> i'm a sellout. >> you're telling me that i'm a sellout. >> who is help when he gets into that shouting match with chris cuomo? >> i'm not sure but we are all entertained, what i find fascinating the story about joe biden and hunt biden's ties to ukraine is coming up, joe biden says it didn't happen and in his own words he did ask the ukrainian president at the time to fire someone and -- >> fire prosecutor looking into the company that his son was part of. >> exactly, the story of joe biden

joe biden? >> no, actually i didn't -- >> you never ask anything about hunter biden, never asked anything about joe biden? >> the only thing i asked a bunch of varnish to get to the bottom of how it was -- he was appointed, dismissed the case against -- >> so you did ask ukraine to look into joe biden. >> corseted ex-lax because you just said you didn't. spirited you ask the ukraine to look into it? >> rudy: said to me did i ever talk about joe biden, i said no. then i said i did say you should investigate joe biden and hunter biden. i corrected it immediately. i corrected it before he corrected it. the reality is the distinction is this, what they are trying to say as i went there for a political mission to kind of get joe biden in trouble. it ridiculous. i went there as a lawyer defending his client. i've known about this for five months. i've been trying to get people to cover this for five months sentiment will be very hard to get this out. one problem with this, it ukrainian collusion, whic
