‘The Attorney General Has Egg On His Face’: Former FBI Agent Sounds Off On Hunter Biden Special Counsel

“What a move on his part, and I do give him credit, what an incredible idea to now give what we used to refer to as an independent counsel. There’s nothing independent about David Weiss,” Kaplan continued. “Let’s give it back to the U.S. attorney who we thought we had any level of integrity to give him back an opportunity. To, what, redo what was already supposed to be done? It is a one — ridiculous and absurd. It is absurd.”

Kaplan pointed to the indictments of former President Donald Trump, saying that the Biden administration was hoping for a conviction to distract attention from the allegations surrounding the Bidens. Special Counsel Jack Smith secured a four-count indictment of Trump relating to his efforts to contest the results of the 2020 election after he previously secured a 37-count indictment against Trump in June based on an investigation into allegations surrounding classified documents.

“Do you think it was any coincidence that today, Friday, on the slow media news cycle that Garland stands there in front of the teleprompter?” Kaplan asked Watters. “I mean, he doesn’t even have the level of integrity to be able to speak freely without having to script out a statement and then run off the stage without even taking one question. The whole thing is orchestrated, it is disgraceful. I just hope we all come together as Americans to see it for what it is. It’s an absolute disgrace.”
