‘Let Me Finish!’: All Hell Breaks Loose On ‘Fox & Friends’ When One Host Downplays Biden’s Bribery Allegations

Fox News’ Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade tore into each other Thursday as they argued over whether Congressional Republicans could prove President Joe Biden had illegal involvement in his son’s business dealings.

The “Fox & Friends” panel discussed Hunter Biden’s shady business dealings when Doocy said, “With all due respect, the Republicans need better investigators because they have a lot of circumstantial evidence, but they have not shown that Joe Biden profited personally, or he had broken any rules.”

Emails show then-Vice President Biden’s office sent talking points to the State Department about Ukrainian oligarch Mykola Zlochevsky days after Hunter “called D.C.” from the site of Ukrainian energy firm Burisma’s board meeting.

“They’re doing great, I vehemently disagree,” Kilmeade fired back before Doocy attempted to interject.

“No, no. Let me finish,” Kilmeade said.  (RELATED: Peter Doocy Confronts Biden Face-To-Face Over Alleged Family Enrichment Schemes)

“Let me finish! I started!” Doocy said.

“This is funneling right to him at a rapid pace. They have had this job for eight months.

“What’s funneling into him?” Doocy asked.

WATCH:

“Everything! Is Joe involved? Is Joe’s presence involved in every major business deal that Hunter was involved in? As Andy McCarthy said, Joe was the business. He had the access. Hunter didn’t. Hunter didn’t have the reputation. It’s leading right there,” Kilmeade said.

“Brian, what laws did Joe Biden break?”

“If the American people knew,” Kilmeade said.

“Just answer the question,” Doocy pressed. “What law did he break?”

“Number one, the investigation is not done.”

“That’s my point! Brian, they need better investigators.”

“Do you not want to hear any reporting until it’s done?” Kilmeade asked before co-host Ainsley Earhardt jumped in to try and cool tensions.

“To my earlier point, the Republicans just need to present the evidence to the American people and say, look, they have got to say okay,” Doocy said before Kilmeade interjected.

“Nineteen pages wasn’t enough yesterday?”

“Brian, they’ve got to say we can prove Joe Biden broke the law by doing this. That’s all I’m saying.”

“So you only want a concluding sentence?” Kilmeade asked. “You don’t want to see the investigation?”

“I’m watching the investigation!”

“This investigation is the most damning leading to a culmination I have ever seen,” Kilmeade argued.

“I said it looks terrible,” Doocy said. “We just need proof so the American public.”

“You said Republicans are doing a terrible job!”

“I said they need better investors that can connect the dots,” Doocy said before eventually turning toward the camera and ending the spat.

“We disagree about this.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
