Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo began her show Tuesday live from the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, but her first segment covered Hunter Biden, visitor logs, and trap houses with FBN’s Cheryl Casone and frequent guest Mark Tepper of Strategic Wealth Partners.
Bartiromo opened her show early Tuesday with a brief overview of the news before turning to the Biden classified documents story, focusing on Republican Rep. James Comer‘s request for visitor logs from the private residence where some of the documents were found sitting around in a garage next to the car. The administration says no visitor logs were kept at the home.
Casone pointed out that the president’s son Hunter Biden used to live at the Delaware home and may have had access to classified material while he was involved in a variety of illicit activities.
Bartiromo turned to Tepper next, asking whether it’s the case that presidential homes in the past have maintained visitor logs even though they are a private residence.
“Now they say, ‘oh, it’s private.’ But that wasn’t the case under Donald Trump,” she said.
Tepper then said that he “gets’ why the Biden home wouldn’t have logs.
“So, you know, it makes sense that there’s no visitor logs,” he said. “Hunter used to live there. So it’s very rare that you see visitor logs being kept at a trap house where illicit drugs are being consumed and things like that.”
“So I get it from that perspective,” he said.
He went on to mention that the place where people keep their “beer fridge’ isn’t the most secure way to store documents, and brought up an old episode of Jay Leno’s car show to make a Christmas gift argument.
After that summation, Bartiromo appropriately reacted with, “that is just incredible.”
BARTIROMO: Mark, correct me if I’m wrong, but in the past, if it’s a president’s home, there are still visitor logs at that home. Is that not right?
TEPPER: That is right.
BARTIROMO: Now they say, oh, it’s private. But that wasn’t the case under Donald Trump.
TEPPER: Exactly. So, you know, it makes sense that there’s no visitor logs. As Cheryl mentioned, Hunter used to live there. So it’s very rare that you see visitor logs being kept at a trap house where illicit drugs are being consumed and things like that. So I get it from that perspective.
But, you know, you look at all of the things that really don’t add up here. I mean, they’re trying to say that because it’s a private residence, we don’t need to maintain logs. But when there’s classified documents there, there needs to be an extra level of care associated with that residence. And saying that they’re in a locked garage next to a Corvette, that’s not enough. That’s where a lot of people have their beer fridge.
I mean, people come and go, you know, and, you know, Hunter, obviously, he lived there in 2018, 2019, according to the address on his driver’s license. But in 2016, on Jay Leno’s Garage, President Biden also mentioned that both Hunter and Beau rebuilt the engine of the Corvette as a, I think, a Christmas present possibly.
Typically, when you’re giving someone a Christmas present, you don’t get them involved in helping you to make that Christmas present happen. Right. So I’m assuming Hunter and Beau were in there in that garage by themselves rebuilding the engine of that Corvette, which obviously that’s a huge security issue.
BARTIROMO: That is just incredible.
