| 0:00.0 | Research that resonates. |
| 0:05.0 | Schweitzer has not been wrong on any of his years and years of reporting on the Bidens. |
| 0:12.0 | Investigations that matter. |
| 0:14.0 | If your last name wasn't Biden, do you think you would have been asked to be on the board of Burisma? |
| 0:19.0 | 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 fired. The only entities, the only people that would report on this, and Peter Schweizer, who deserves a medal of freedom in my view. This is The Drill Down with Peter Schweitzer. Hi, this is Peter Schweitzer and welcome to the |
| 0:40.3 | Drill Down where we relentlessly expose cronyism, corruption, and the abuse of power in Washington, D.C. |
| 0:47.3 | and in our government. Sitting by my side as always is Eric Eggers. Eric, how are you? |
| 0:51.8 | I'm wonderful, Peter, but then again, I'm not facing a litany of criminal charges, and I don't have, you know, federal whistleblowers making allegations against me. Well, that's the topic of our discussion today. That's the whistleblowers that have come forward in the Hunter Biden case. You've heard the expression the wheels of justice turned slowly. You've told me that's an expression, but, you know, given your sort of thin and weak grasp on American culture and colloquialisms, I'm not sure that is a phrase I've heard. No, yeah, it's an older phrase. Okay. But it's true. People get frustrated with the criminal justice system because it takes a while for the wheels to start to turn. And boy, these wheels have been turning for five years since we first exposed |
| 1:28.6 | what the Bidens were doing and the grand jury was convened in 2018. And last week, as you remember, |
| 1:34.4 | we had this ridiculous plea agreement that was struck between the U.S. attorney and Hunter Biden, |
| 1:40.6 | misdemeanor charges on taxes, what was, I think, essentially felony tax evasion. And then on the |
| 1:48.0 | other hand, you have the gun charge that was basically dismissed. They said, hey, you need to go into |
| 1:53.6 | this sort of rehab type of training and we'll forget the felony gun charge. And then they never brought |
| 1:59.2 | charges under the Foreign Agents Registration |
| 2:01.8 | Act. Well, we want to talk about that, and then we want to talk about more specifically this group of |
| 2:06.8 | whistleblowers who came out with Congress, and we learned some of the revelations, which I think are |
| 2:13.7 | frankly shocking. Yeah, I think that you could make the arguments. The wheels appear to be picking up speed in the last several weeks, not just because of the plea deal and I think the collective reaction to that, which was not generally positive. No one's like, okay, well, you squeezed everything you could have out of that one. And then I think partly out of reaction, then the House Republican said, oh, by the way, we have whistleblowers. If you guys aren't going to take care of your business, AG's office, you should know some of the things that people within the IRS and people within the federal government who do have courage have been standing up and saying about this thing. These are among the things you must have overlooked in your plea deals. Here's why it's so bad. And I think you're right. The allegations are quite shocking. You've got a screenshot of a text |
| 2:52.1 | message allegedly sent with Hunter Biden and sitting next to then former Vice President Joe Biden |
| 2:56.8 | in which a Chinese official is essentially extorted or threatened. Now, I'm interested in your take |
| 3:02.6 | on why that's potentially problematic, but also I think you have an excellent understanding of the |
| 3:07.2 | context of that. But then also the litany of things that Hunter Biden was doing that I are that's potentially problematic, but also I think you have an excellent understanding of the context |
| 3:07.7 | of that. But then also the litany of things that Hunter Biden was doing that IRS agents would say, |
