Research that resonates.

Schweitzer has not been wrong on any of his years and years of reporting on the Bidens.

Investigations that matter.

If your last name wasn't Biden, do you think you would have been asked to be on the board of Burisma?

I don't know. I don't know. Probably not. But that's, you know, I don't think that there's a lot of things that would have happened in my life that if my last name wasn't fighting.
