self-described biden biden family, joe biden as well. what was his response when you let him know that you were going public with this? >> trying to coach me, trying to sort of say we don't want to do that, we don't want press trucks out in front of our house. i'm going to have to move, i could lose my job, and all of that -- i'm not trying to cause any harm to anyone in this situation let alone rob walkerin and his family, but basically his position was if you go on record with these facts, you will bury all of us. >> if he doesn't come out on o record, i am providing the facts. >> that would just bury all of us.re >> i was focused on pushing these guys to do the right thing, to demonstrate an ounce of integrity in front of the american people. they all know the facts, i live the facts and luckily for the american people, all the facts are extremely well documented. i'm irrelevant in this discussion so i can write off the american people can listen to the recording you just played, read the legal documents executed in delaware and they

i think joe biden, the times have made joe biden president of the united states. and all of the times he ran he didn't have a policy or ideology at the heart of his politics he's liberal segregation of senators in the senate, he was always casted foreign ideology for an idea of who he is the american people were never buying it when he ran and national campaign he was angry in america just wasn't but it may be what happened to him this time in the face of coronavirus and a president who said a lot of stuff on fire may be a lot of people really felt they needed a grief counselor ined chief. i think that is who joe biden had become so we tell a lot of stories maybe that was enough. people finally recognized even though joe biden may not have recognized it by himself but he is prepared to be the grief counselor in chief. host: do you explore the dynamics that people voted not necessarily for joe biden but against president trump? >> no doubt about that. biden benefited from that. aside from political policy differences, i think there were personality issues and one o

was always the biden family, it wasn't hunter biden, jim biden, it was the biden family, obviously led and operated by joe biden and in the document that you guys have and i think has been provided to the world, the chinese reference that because of their trust in the biden family, that chairman yan director zhang are excited about moving forward in this and in that document, they referenced loaning $5 million to the bd family. it's the biden family and noticed they didn't say we are learning that money to tony bobulinski, we are loaning that money to rob walker, once again, not a document generated by me but a document generated by cfc that they are loaning that money to the biden family. >> tucker: what are the implications of this going forward if joe biden is elected president which could very well happen. how does this constrain his ability to deal with china? >> are you asking for my personal opinion? >> someone who has worked with the chinese. able to talk with and deal and do business with and i just don't see given the history here in the facts how joe can't be influenced in s

president biden or president-elect biden last week could have unveiled anything right? we knew he would deliver something on what a future stimulus policy should look like but we didn't know what it was what he delivered was something that really those of us who are trying to figure out in washington could be seen as something bipartisan when he continues to talk about unity as an important message so far he is somewhat walking the walk there as well now, there are some very partisan things he is going to do today which is to reverse a bunch of unilateral trump administration decisions but what he is trying to set up for the first, big policy that congress should look at is something both sides can come together on. >> brian, it is common for presidents to say they're going to unite and that they are especially positioned to do that lately it has been very difficult to do. do you think the confirmation hearings we expect to see ongoing should be a tell on whether the policies presented and the true intentions will be something that unites or divides? >> well, the confir

thursday the biden protection plan went poof and biden was left alone with the press who challenged his 100-day vaccine goal. >> isn't that where the u.s. is right now? >> when i announced it you all said it wasn't possible. come on, give me a break, man. jesse: that's joe's tell. when he snaps and can't communicate effectively. "politico" reports that democrats have been caught flat footed out of the gate. contrary to two years ago when the party took the house and leaders articulated a plan on guns and equality. no clear agenda has been presented by president biden. joe never showed leadership or management skills needed to be president. this shouldn't sprays anyone who follows politics. joe is a lucky guy who was swept into office by an act of god. a once in a hundred-year pandemic. not to mention a record flood of mail ballots. but he's the president now. and we wish him good health and our country good fortune. unfortunately the corporate media isn't objective. they are corrupt. because the media works with the democrat party to help him get elected. they will participate in the bi

joe biden is faded. that's not a personal attack, it is really show biden is not capable of running the government or pushing back against the radicals and his party so the question is who will fill the power vacuum within the biden administration? there are still we are being as honest as we can be, still reasonable people within the democratic party, people who have a stake in this country, who don't want to destroy it and now is the time for those people, the reasonable people in the democratic party to step up forcefully and call off the war their party is planning on millions of fellow americans. >> democrats led by biden have to push unity over the next four years but will they. >> it with the state former assistant secretary of state for george w. bush robert charles. thanks for being here, appreciate your time. we heard joe biden talk about unity and for arguments sake that message is going to go over well and has been going over well for his base. how does he reach those who are not in his base?

and what president biden, president—elect biden has made clear is that he intends to be the president of all of america, not just those who voted for him, but everybody, and that he will be listening broadly, but he will be staying true to his core values. and he's made it clear that those core values are to make sure that we build back better. and what he means by that phrase is that when we emerge from this global pandemic, we will make sure that we vaccinate people fairly. we will make sure that the jobs that have evaporated for the least people who were least able to lose theirjobs are able to recoup. women have been devastated byjob loss in this pandemic. people of colour have suffered disproportionately from the pandemic in terms of health outcomes and also in terms ofjob loss. and so as we rebuild, we do have to rebuild in a way that is fairer and more equitable. and so do you put a label on that as being progressive? i put a label on that as being fair and mindful that the american dream should not be available just to just a few, but it should be available to everybody. and i
