let's get checked for a full range of conditions introducing let's get checked health testing you do at home let's get round-the-clock support from a team of nurses let's get fast accurate results know your health know yourself for a limited time only get forty percent off at let's get checked dot com let's welcome back to the show kate mcfarlane former trump deputy national security advisor author of the terrific book revolution trump washington and we the people kt okay what is going on here with hunter biden he got a gun in 2018 according to reports then hunter biden's brother's widow threw out the gun in a dumpster behind a grocery store near a high school and then it went missing and the cops and the feds came in to investigate and clean everything up what's going on here you know i mean not only is it a horrible story in and of itself right then here's a guy who at the time was you know potentially had coca drug issues and he's got a gun um and he's got a gun near a school his wife you know his his relative throws it in the dumpster or anybody could have picked it up and done damage but what gets me liz is this the double standard you know with the justice department the department of justice the fbi even the secret service they wanted to cover that up you know that was joe biden that was his son he's off limits it's the same attitude that they had about joe biden's son hunter and his chinese connections his connections with the chinese business the fact that he's still on the payroll of some chinese companies same with ukraine that's one standard that they use and yet if this were donald trump it's a completely different standard i mean look at that press conference yesterday what a charade that was you know donald trump had a press conference and the reporters tried to tear from you know tear them to shreds joe biden has a press conference that's one puffball question after another oh isn't this wonderful and it just to me is an example of how bad it is in washington that there's a double standard of justice justice for one for donald trump and republicans and conservatives and another standard of justice for democrats and joe biden and the woke culture mob cancel culture and and i think it's well i guess i would quote the very respected judge lawrence silverman who wrote earlier in the last week he said this is the most dangerous threat to democracy when the freedom of press is abused when the media is controlled by one political party that's when democracy dies and i guess that's where i come out i am really upset that there are increasing examples of the double standard and this does not bode well for democracy forget who's in the white house forget who's not in the white house it's the institutions of democracy that are being threatened now by this new approach liz yeah and so we're hearing reports hunter biden joined his father on air force one today delaware getting back to this gun incident delaware police reportedly began investigating concern that the trash can was across from a high school and that the missing gun could could be used in a crime and then reports came in that the secret service showed up at the gun shop where hunter biden reportedly bought the gun and tried to get his paperwork on it and the gun shop owner said no and now we've got top republican senators chuck grassley and ron johnson saying we want answers about this they're asking the fbi and the atf of the secret service for information about this it's just such an odd story secret service is denying any role in this your word on that again sorry lindsey graham's demanding info let me let me back up sorry it's senators grassley and lindsey graham demanding info thank you go ahead yeah but again it's it's the taking of the justice department and the fbi and they're being turned into political weapons in favor of covering up for certain people and in favor of persecuting other people all based on politics this is a very dangerous place liz you know 20 years ago the people that in washington you could trust were the intelligence community the military and the department of justice they played fair by everybody they're no longer playing fair and that does not bode well for the future of the republic why was the secret service reportedly getting involved here well you've got to assume that it was pretty quickly found out that it was a hunter-biden gun right or connected somehow to hunter biden now remember joe biden wasn't vice president at that point joe biden was out of office so i'd like to that be the first question i'd want to do i want to call the head of the secret service in front of a congressional committee and say why were you guys even involved why did you get involved in this issue was there some issue that involved a security of the former vice president of the united states and once you got involved why did you cover it all up your job is to make sure that that officials are protected in their normal course of business your job is not to cover up for political relatives or to sort of put your thumb on the scale of justice so i would not only want to ask the local law enforcement but i really want to find out from the secret service and then there's the hypocrisy of it all you know joe biden is at his press conference talking about firearms and weapons and the horrible things that are happening in america with with mass shootings and yet here's his son who was had a drug issue and he's walking around with a gun and then somebody tosses it in the trash can the whole thing just sounds it really sounds shabby okay kt mcfarland thanks for joining us come back soon it's
