SEAN DUFFY (FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR): You know, Julie, it takes a special politician to make statements and make speeches like that knowing all well that your own family hasn't paid their taxes, and by the way, this could come back to Joe Biden as well. He said he was paid back loan money from his brother, Jim Biden, but if that was payment for the big guy, the 10%, and he didn't pay taxes on that, Joe Biden might find himself in the same situation that Hunter finds himself in. And to say that rich Americans don't pay their taxes and the rest of that sentence is, it's actually the Bidens who don't pay their taxes and are filthy rich, and by the way they made their money off some shady ways. One other point too, Julie, I think maybe Hunter thought that through the shell companies that he had set up to make money off of American enemies, he could have hid some of this income from the IRS. He might have thought it was a great scheme. But the IRS, they've got great accountants, they can see everything and that scheme didn't work.

 

JULIE BANDERAS (FOX NEWS ANCHOR): It is ironic that the former president and the current president are being accused of not properly filing taxes or not filing their proper salaries to make due for the taxes they should owe, but yet one is being tried and the other is not. Thank you very much, Sean Duffy. We appreciate that.
