Fox & Friends’ set continues to provide fascinating insight into divisions within the Republican party, especially in light of the House GOP’s investigation into President Joe Biden’s impeachment.
Shortly before Hunter Biden is scheduled to testify behind closed doors on Wednesday morning, things got a little heated on the Fox News morning show. Any proof of the “high crimes and misdemeanors” necessary to sustain an impeachment is in question.
There simply isn’t any evidence, as numerous Republicans have stated both openly and privately, according to Steve Doocy. That take did not sit well with Brian Kilmeade, who interrupted to ask his co-host, “What Republicans?!” with skepticism.
Doocy remarked of the Hunter Biden testimony, “so this is coming at a critical moment for the Republicans impeachment inquiry.” Furthermore, some Republican legislators on Capitol Hill said they have not seen any proof of serious crimes or misdemeanors. Furthermore, the Republicans now lack the necessary votes to impeach. Furthermore, the Republicans have failed to present any concrete proof of Joe Biden’s wrongdoing despite conducting numerous interviews and providing the committees with over 100,000 documents.
Kilmeade chimed in, “But man, this looks absolutely terrible.” There have been 150 reports of suspicious activities near them. Joe Biden attended discussions for each significant Hunter Biden agreement. “My dad is talking to a Chinese CFC official while sitting next to me,” he remarked.
“Many phone calls!” Ainsley Earhardt said, entering the battle to support Kilmeade. “There’s a $200,000 check that was paid to Biden. Then you’ve got an inexperienced Hunter Biden who admitted that to ABC in an interview, he said, yeah, shouldn’t have real I don’t really have any experience in this. Then why are you on the board?”
The $200,000 check looks to be James Biden’s brother Joe’s personal loan repayment.
Earhardt said, “I think there IS evidence!” to Kilmeade’s endless legal arguments on why he thinks Joe Biden is crooked on some level. Things started to get a little heated:
Doocy Well, yeah, I think there are many lawmakers who say they’ve seen zero evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors.
Kilmeade: But we just said that they have.
Doocy: But they’ve …. to impeach somebody you need direct evidence of misconduct by Joe Biden. Look, Hunter Biden, it sure looks like he traded on his name and he’s going to have plenty of time today
Kilmeade: (Interrupting) With is dad … the role his dad played is key.
Doocy: Pardon me Brian. We’re going to have plenty of time, the Republicans are, to ask him a million questions. It will be interesting to hear what he has to say. But right now, you know, according to Republicans, there’s no.
Kilmeade: What Republicans?!
Doocy: Some Republicans say they’ve got the goods on Hunter Biden and Joe Biden. But a number of Republicans who I’ve spoken to on Capitol Hill say there’s no direct evidence of misconduct by the current president.
Earhardt: It’s just so corrupt.
Kilmeade: This is so unbelievable.
Earhardt: And how does Joe Biden have these multimillion dollar houses? We know what he makes. How does he have I mean, he had to have gotten money somewhere.
Kilmeade: I think Comer’s done a great job with very reluctant witnesses. And Tony Bobulinski and then also the business partner who is in jail where Devon Archer is heading. If you worked with Hunter Biden, you’re either dead, missing or jailed. And that’s where he could be heading next.
Doocy: So Hunter Biden in the hot seat less than three hours from right now. We’ll bring you as soon as he goes into the building.
In late November of 2023, Republican congresswoman Lisa McClain informed Maria Bartiromo that they lacked any proof in the impeachment investigation.
