Alan Dershowitz: THIS is the FIRST question I'd ask Hunter Biden



Well-known attorney Alan Dershowitz knows his way around a courtroom.

And as Hunter Biden is getting ready to go under oath, he already knows the first question he’d ask him if he got the chance.

“The first question I would ask him is, ‘Was President Biden sitting next to you ... when you tweeted to the Chinese businessman saying, ‘My father is sitting next to me, and if you don’t pay the money, my father will go after you?’”

Glenn Beck wants to know more.

“And if you were his attorney, how would you advise him to answer?” Glenn asks.

Dershowitz laughs, saying he would “try to take the Fifth Amendment.”

“But,” he continues, “he’s not going to be able to because his lawyers have said that the plea bargain ends the investigation against him.”

While it remains to be seen what will happen during the deposition and what will ultimately happen to Hunter Biden, Glenn is optimistic.

“This could be a massive turning point today,” he says, “if all of these people are put under oath and they say under oath what they’ve already said — at least the whistleblowers — this cracks this case wide open.”

Dershowitz is not so sure.

“I wouldn’t go that far. They have to prove that what the whistleblowers are saying is true. People lie under oath on both sides, on all sides. So, what we have right now is probable cause,” Dershowitz cautions.

While he says there’s enough evidence to investigate, subpoena, and get a search warrant, there’s not enough to prosecute or impeach.

“The quality of the evidence matters a great deal,” he adds.

Legal experts DEBATE: Is Donald Trump in ACTUAL DANGER?



Alan Dershowitz may think Trump is in serious trouble, but Michael Bekesha of Judicial Watch thinks differently.

The two took turns explaining their positions to Glenn Beck.

Bekesha explains that the reason the indictment began is because someone at the National Archives “thought that maybe president Trump had some records that maybe he shouldn’t have taken with him when he left office.”

He likens this to what happened with Bill Clinton when he left office.

While in office, Clinton created audio recordings that contained everything from important information to conversations with foreign leaders.

Those conversations included “cruise missile attacks to get Osama bin Laden,” Bekesha says.

Instead of going through the proper channels, “President Clinton kept these tapes in his sock drawer and decided to take them with him when he left office.”

He did not declassify them before he took them.

“According to what we know, he simply took them with him,” Bekesha continues.

When the Judicial Watch tried to sue for the tapes, “the Obama Justice Department took the position that whatever President Clinton took with him were not presidential records they were personal records, and there’s nothing that they could do to get them back.”

In 2012, the District Court in D.C. sided with the government. The judge, according to Bekesha, said “it is the sole responsibility of the president to decide what records are personal, what records are presidential, and once they are taken out of the White House, there’s nothing that the court could do to get them back.”

President Trump put the documents in boxes that he took when he left, and Bill Clinton put them in a sock drawer — Bekesha believes it was essentially the same process.

Alan Dershowitz disagrees and believes these charges are serious.

“There’s real trouble but that doesn’t mean that it can’t be won. This is a very, very serious charge,” Dershowitz says.

“The problem with Donald Trump is illustrated by that plaque that some people have in their homes with a stuffed fish on it that says, ‘If I had only kept my mouth shut, I’d still be swimming.’ All of Trump’s problems come from his own statements,” he adds.
