>> THANK YOU, THANK YOU, GUYS. >> THANK YOU, THANK YOU, GUYS. THANK YOU. [SHOUTING QUESTIONS] >> Brian: ASK ANY QUESTIONS OR ADDRESS THE PRESS JUST GIGGLES. PRESIDENT BIDEN LAUGHING OFF QUESTIONS ON THE TRUMP INDICTMENT. SENATOR TOM COTTON JOINS US NOW TO REACT. IS IT OKAY FOR THE PRESIDENT AND
THE PRESS SECRETARY NOT TO COMMENT ON THIS? >> NO, BRIAN. THIS IS NO LAUGHING MATTER. NEVER BEFORE IN AMERICAN HISTORY HAS THE PARTY IN POWER TARGETED A FORMER PRESIDENT WITH CRIMINAL CHARGES SUCH AN UNPRECEDENTED STEP SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN LIGHTLY BUT THE INDICTMENT OF DONALD TRUMP IS A JOKE. IT SHOULD BE DISMISSED
IMMEDIATELY. FIRST OFF THE SO-CALLED CRIMINAL CHARGES ARE BEYOND NEW YORK’S FIVE YEAR STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS SECOND THE LEGAL THEORY IS COMPLETELY FLAWED. THEIR CLAIM, I GUESS, THE INDICTMENT IS SO BLANK ON THE MATTER IS THAT DONALD TRUMP SHOULD HAVE USED CAMPAIGN FUNDS FOR A PERSONAL MATTER. BUT THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE,
EVEN THE FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION HAS REFUSED TO BRING FEDERAL ELECTION CRIMINAL CHARGES HERE FINALLY CONSIDER THE EVIDENCE HERE. YOU HAVE THE TESTIMONY OF A WOMAN WHO HAS REPEATEDLY CONTRADICTED HERSELF ON THIS MATTER AND THEN THE TESTIMONY NOT JUST OF ANY CONVICTED CRIMINAL BUT A MAN WHO WAS CONVICTED FOR LYING UNDER OATH.
THIS MATTER OUGHT TO BE DISMISSED IMMEDIATELY. >> Brian: WHAT A DISTRACTION IT IS FOR THE COUNTRY. COST MAYBE $200 MILLION FOR THIS CITY THAT’S ALREADY 13 BILLION IN DEFICIT. 4% OF HIS BUDGET ACROSS THE BOARD. WRITING CHECKS TO AN UNDERSTAFFED POLICE DEPARTMENT WHO WE’RE TOLD WORK FOR FIVE STRAIGHT DAYS IN FULL UNIFORM.
INCREDIBLY STUPID AND THAT IS ALVIN BRAGG. NOW, IMPACTFUL THINGS ARE HAPPENING IN REAL LIFE. AND NOT THE ONES WE HAVE BEEN IN. THE BIPARTISAN GROUP OF SENATORS — I DIDN’T MEAN KNOW THIS — MET QUIETLY WITH THE TAIWANESE PRESIDENT. YOU WERE NOT THERE. HAD KEVIN McCARTHY SIT DOWN.
THAT WILL BE TODAY WITH THE TOWN JUAN KNEESTAIWANESE PRESIDENT. >> IT’S VERY COMMON FOR THEM TO TRANSIT THROUGH THE UNITED STATES. THEY DON’T COME ON OFFICIAL STATE VISITS BECAUSE OF OUR UNIQUE RELATIONSHIP WITH TAIWAN. THIS IS VERY COMMON. THERE IS MANY HISTORIC PRECEDENTS WITH IT IN THE PAST. UNFORTUNATELY PRESIDENT BIDEN
AND THE WHITE HOUSE, WHO IS GOING OUT OF THEIR WAY TO MINIMIZE THIS VISIT TO SAY IT’S MERELY A PRIVATE VISIT, NOT TO DEFEND THE RIGHTS OF SENATORS AND CONGRESSMAN TO MEET WITH PRESIDENT XIE. THERE WAS A DEMOCRAT SENATOR THAT MET WITH HER AS WELL. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED LAST
SUMMER AS WELL WHEN NANCY PELOSI WENT ON WHAT IS A ROUTINE AND COMMON TRIP TORE LEGISLATOR TO TRAVEL TO TAIWAN I HAVE DONE SO MYSELF AS WELL. PRESIDENT BIDEN MINIMIZED THE ENTIRE THING. HE DIDN’T STAND UP FOR THE RIGHTS OF MEMBERS OF CONGRESS THAT ONLY EMBOLDEN CHINA THAT ENCOURAGE THEM TO TAKE
PROVOCATIVE ACTIONS. I STRONGLY STABBED WITH SENATORS WHO HAVE MET WITH PRESIDENT XIE AND SPEAKER McCARTHY AND I WOULD URGE PRESIDENT BIDEN TO MAKE IT CLEAR TO CHINA NOT ONLY ARE WE GOING TO CONTINUE THIS PRACTICE BUT WE WILL STAND UP TO ANY PROVOCATION THAT CHINA UNDERTAKES IN THE WESTERN PACIFIC BECAUSE OF THESE
MEETINGS. >> Brian: SENATOR, WE HAVE PLEDGED TO GET THEM THE DEFENSIVE WEAPONS THEY NEED TO DEFEND THEMSELVES AND THREE YEARS NOW. THEY ARE BLAMING IT ON SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES. WE KNOW THE SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUES. BUT IS THAT REALLY THE CAUSE OF WHY TAIWAN DOESN’T HAVE THE ARMS THEY PAID FOR? >> NO, BRIAN.
I THINK ONE OF THE MAIN CAUSES HERE IS PRESIDENT BIDEN, AGAIN, IS PROJECTING WEAKNESS. TRYING TO CONCILIATE WITH XI JINPING. EVERY TIME AMERICA EVEN ANNOUNCES A WEAPONS DELIVERY, CHINA GETS ANGRY AND CHINA DENOUNCES THE ACTION AND PRESIDENT BIDEN, AGAIN, YOU HAVE SEEN HIM FOR HIS FIRST TWO YEARS
IN OFFICE CONTINUES TO TRY TO FIND WAYS TO APPEASE THE CHINESE. THEY SENT A SPY BALLOON ALL ACROSS AMERICA JUST A COUPLE MONTHS AGO. THE SECRETARY OF STATE CANCELED A MEETING WITH HIS COUNTERPART AS A RESULT OF THAT. BUT THEN JUST A FEW WEEKS LATER AT A CONFERENCE IN EUROPE.
HE WENT RUNNING AFTER HIM SO THEY COULD HAVE A MEETING. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF PRESIDENT BIDEN’S WEAKNESS TOWARDS CHINA. >> Brian: BY THE WAY, THEIR DISHONESTY IN TELLING US THAT THEY WEREN’T ABLE TO GET ANYTHING SUBSTANTIAL IT CONFIG RATES ACROSS MANY OF OUR MILITARY BASES ARE UNTIL WE SHOT IT DOWN.
I HOPE THERE IS GOING TO BE INVESTIGATIONS ON THAT.

TFG has committed crimes so frequently that your argument is ludicrous.
HE DOESN'T HAVE TO SAY A WORD!! HES NOT A PUPPET!! TRUMP IS GUILTY!!
Especially when Biden has something to do with it
I’ve said it once I’ll say it 100 times we are not free Americans Joe Biden basically just said he is not gonna let Trump be president that means our votes count for nothing
Absolutely!!
Arrest Big George, this is all of his making
The American people don’t dismiss indictments against serial criminals
You trump cult members are insane!
The indictment avalanche is coming….wide-load Donny is doomed
The Biden family is the biggest paligamist family since WARREN JEFFS

OUR PEOPLE TO BE REMOOVE FROM FROM THEIR HOMES AND BECOME SCATTERED ALL OVER THE NATIONS LOOKING FOR HHELP AROUND THE WORLD ASWE LOST OUR NATION UNDER BECAUSE OUR LEADERS ARE DECEIVED WAITING AND LOOKING AT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION CONGINUE ITS A HORROR MOVIE IN OUR FUTURE TO COME. AND OUR LEADERS ARE WAITING FOR MORE SCHEAMS TO COME . WE WILL STOP THESE MESSAGES AND PUT IT IN YOUR CONSCIENCES. AND IN GOD'S HANDS.
You are not my president you are a Jacko that's all
The Ice cream president but is not his fault but the ones who put him there.
