In a recent interview with Tucker Carlson, veteran journalist Catherine Herridge dropped a bombshell that could send shockwaves through the political landscape. Herridge, known for her fearless reporting and refusal to bend under pressure, discussed a case that could potentially expose the Biden family’s alleged overseas bribery.
The conversation, which veered from Biden’s cognitive abilities to the depths of Hunter Biden’s legal troubles, felt like peeling back layers of a political onion—each one more pungent than the last. Carlson and Herridge, both former colleagues at Fox News, dissected the current state of journalism and how it handles sensitive political issues, particularly those involving Joe Biden.
Herridge didn’t mince words when she delved into Hunter Biden’s legal entanglements. According to her, these issues are not just about personal missteps but could have far-reaching implications for the entire Biden family. She categorized Hunter’s legal woes into two buckets: gun charges and tax cases. The tax case, in particular, stands out as a potential minefield. “I’ve always felt the tax case is a much more serious case and has the greatest legal jeopardy for himself and members of his family,” Herridge noted.

The upcoming California tax case poses the greatest, potential legal jeopardy for the President’s son and close family members.
The indictment calls him a "lobbyist" and documents business deals in Ukraine, China and others.

Hunter Biden, whose life has been a rollercoaster of addiction and recovery, finds himself under intense scrutiny. Herridge pointed out the critical timeline where Hunter shifted from being a heavy drug user to allegedly engaging in questionable activities while clean. “How many of these alleged bad acts happened during that period versus when he was an addict?” she pondered, adding another layer of complexity to an already tangled web.
Carlson took the opportunity to highlight the apparent inconsistency in media coverage, suggesting a significant bias in how the media scrutinizes different public figures. He recounted an anecdote about Biden’s sister admitting concerns over his cognitive decline years ago—a narrative that hasn’t received the same relentless coverage as Hunter’s laptop scandal. “His sister told a friend of mine, ‘We’re very upset because he’s in cognitive decline,’” Carlson shared. This revelation adds another thread to the tapestry of concerns surrounding Biden’s ability to lead.
As the discussion progressed, Herridge reflected on her own experience facing contempt of court charges for protecting her sources. Her resilience in the face of legal threats underscores a broader issue about the role of journalists in holding power to account. She transitioned from Fox News to CBS News in 2019, only to be caught in a wave of corporate layoffs.
Assessing the broader implications of these revelations, Herridge emphasized the importance of gathering more data to understand Biden’s decision to seek re-election. “We’ve got some data points already… I think it makes sense because we’d have broader data points to assess was this a one-off as the White House says, or were there indications of decline earlier on?” she stated.
Why did CBS News fire Catherine Herridge and seize her reporting records? And how the Press Act can save the country.
