The Drill Down with Peter Schweizer

With Joe Biden forced out of the presidential race, why should anyone still care about the corruption story that implicated him, his brothers, and his son, Hunter Biden? Because “the same people in the same crooked institutions that protected him and allowed him and his family to do business and make millions of dollars from our adversaries, particularly from China, are still there,” journalist Miranda Devine declares on the latest episode of the Drill Down podcast. “They're still committing bad deeds. They still have mal-intent and they still don't have America's best interests at heart,” Devine tells co-hosts Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers.

The Battle Over Truth in Politics

In yet another strange turn in this strangest of political seasons, former President Trump touched on a claim that has been making the rounds on social media posts showing video footage of Springfield residents complaining that Haitian refugees are dining out on the local goose and cat population. The city manager of the town, who is also responsible for running the refugee resettlement program that brought the Haitians to Springfield, has denied the problem exists. Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers consider the Springfield issue in the latest episode of the Drill Down podcast. While they take no position on the cat-and-goose claim, they note that there really is a problem in Springfield for which the Biden-Harris Administration bears some responsibility. The co-hosts noted that the Biden administration placed 20,000 Haitian refugees in Springfield, a town with a pre-refugee population of 59,000.

Kamala Harris's Connections and Integrity

Big Government Intrudes on Everything

Democratic vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz has for years embellished his military service in the National Guard, as reports based on statements from those who served with him have shown. There are also lingering questions about Walz’s long history of association with the Communist Party of China (CCP). Now there are new questions about the investment activities of Minnesota’s state pension fund under Walz’s leadership. Peter Schweizer, host of The Drill Down podcast, and co-host Eric Eggers, review the “troubling questions” on the most recent episode.

Kamala Harris’s selection of Minnesota governor Tim Walz as her running mate raises many troubling questions about Walz’s connections to Communist China, notes Peter Schweizer in the most recent episode of The Drill Down podcast. Schweizer and co-host Eric Eggers welcome Fox Business commentator Charlie Gasparino to the show to discuss the Walz selection, as well as Gasparino’s new book on wokeness inside American corporations – and politics.
