This chapter analyzes the response of the Biden camp to the controversies surrounding Hunter Biden and how the Republicans are using them as a distraction. It discusses the lack of evidence and criminal charges related to Hunter Biden's business dealings, as well as the possibility of Republicans opening an impeachment inquiry into President Biden. The chapter also explores the personal toll this situation has on Joe Biden and his team's aggressive pushback against impeachment efforts.
Hunter Biden is set to be indicted this month. The WSJ’s Aruna Viswanatha goes over the evidence with us, and Politico’s Jonathan Lemire looks at what it all means for President Biden’s reelection bid.
This show was produced by Miles Bryan, edited by Miranda Kennedy, fact checked by Serena Solin, engineered by Patrick Boyd, and hosted by Noel King.
