Republicans in Congress are ramping up their threats of impeachment against President Biden for being involved in crooked business deals with his son. And a new analysis says that the Hunter Biden talking points are starting to take a little bit of a toll on Biden's reelection campaign. I'm not so sure. We talked earlier about a new article came in today. It was equivocal. Does it have an impact? I don't know that it does by itself. I think it's a cumulative aspect. I mean, it's just one other brick in the wall. You add everything together where they're talking about secret email names that are moving between Hunter and Joe. Talking about dozens of offshore bank accounts that they're trying to follow. Talking about shell corporations that are being put together, shell accounts. $50 million changing hands. Well, you hear those one-liners and you hear 'em related to this story. And then the first reaction is where there's smoke, there's fire. Right.

Usually, I mean, we've had smoking gun witness after smoking gun witness show up in Congress this year. And every time, okay, well it's a big fat dud. Well, okay. But the next witness. I mean, it got to the point where Fox News even started calling out the Republicans in the House. Like, listen, y'all have nothing. So listen, I've said every time we talk about Hunter Biden, I always like to point this out. I don't care. If he did something ,great, let's go ahead and we'll prosecute, we'll go through the justice system and let it be handled. If not, wonderful, let's move on from this. But so far I haven't seen evidence. And it's just like, because we talked.

Well, that list I just read, that list is what you're hearing. And you're saying this list doesn't amount to anything, or?

We don't have evidence of it. Those are the talking points right now. And the $50 million, you know, used to be $20 million, it actually started at $2 million. So that number keeps going up. But we still don't have anything that they tell us every week. Like, we're gonna have it. We're gonna have it. And it just never.

Did the shell accounts not bear out? These shell accounts that were put in different names. Did that not bear out?

They have not provided any kind of documentation that shows who was associated with what.

And how about the emails, has that developed at all?

Not that I've seen with the emails so far. In fact, what we've heard from the witnesses who've come in, even the ones who say, yeah, Hunter Biden was kind of a shady guy, but I'll tell you, his dad wasn't involved in any of this. His dad's just on the phone talking to him about the weather. No idea. But they would say, yeah, Hunter did use his dad's presence to kind of intimidate people. But Biden himself was not aware that this was happening.

I'm not sure that the Hunter Biden issue alone moves anything. I think it's just another brick in the wall. It's with all this other stuff that Biden is under attack about. And I just think, I don't think there's any one event that does it. I think it is a cumulative process. And I don't think you'll find any polling that says, yeah, people react and say, because of Hunter Biden, who by the way is not, he's not in government. He's just a thug. Truthfully, he is a dirt bag thug in every sense of the word, but they've never really tied it up to Joe. And you're saying that there's nothing that does that right now?

Nothing that we've, nothing concrete, obviously. I mean, look, you've even got Republicans in the Freedom Caucus, which is the far right group that have come out and said, listen, we're wasting our time if we're going down this impeachment route.
