Watters Blows a Gasket During Argument About Biden Check: ‘I Was Promised a Smoking Gun!’

Fox News’ Jesse Watters blew a gasket when co-host Jessica Tarlov declared there was no “smoking gun” tying Joe Biden to overseas business dealings, despite a $200,000 check written out to Biden by his brother Jim Biden, dated March 1, 2018.

The show rolled tape on new Speaker Mike Johnson indicating House Republicans may subpoena Hunter Biden in the near future to testify about Hunter’s business ventures, which conservatives claim his father and other relatives were involved in.

“Jessica and her ilk for years have said, ‘Well, you don’t have money going directly into Joe Biden’s bank account.’ All right, so now we have a check for $200,000 from one company through the brother to Joe’s bank account,” Watters said, continuing:

WATTERS: Ok, you still say that that’s not from overseas. That was a loan. Ok, ok. What happens if the next check originates somewhere really bad, Jessica? And I mean really bad. And it goes through Hunter or James, and it goes directly into Joe Biden’s checking account?  Is that your smoking gun? Is that your smoking gun, Jessica? Because you said, that was a smoking gun, if money went from overseas directly into Joe Biden’s bank account. If a check comes out at some point from that avenue, is that a smoking gun?

TARLOV: Ok, so two things —

WATTERS: Yes or no?

TARLOV: No.

WATTERS: It’s not? Woah, woah, woah. Jessica! For a year you said, “The money never hit his bank account.” What if I have a check that hits his bank account that comes from overseas? Is that not a smoking gun?

Tarlov then tried to get a word in edgewise as Watters continued ranting.

“Someone help me out,” she pleaded with her co-hosts as Watters continued to interrupt. “Ok, if, uh, uh, uh, Ok —”

Tarlov finally got the chance to explain that the check in question was dated 2018, before Biden was president.

“Is he in elected office and did he do something about it? So, that check, that 2018 check, when he was not doing anything except hanging around, and there was an explanation for it. So if you get a check, and then you can connect that to an action that he took,” Tarlov said. But Watters didn’t like that explanation.

“Oh, no, not to an action that he took!” he exclaimed. “That was just an action that he took. Because before you said none of the money from overseas went into his checking account—

“That’s not true!” Tarlov protested.

“So now it’s an action?” Watters demanded.

“You are yelling and and there’s no reason for it,” Tarlov complained.

“There’s a reason,” Watters continued. “I was promised a smoking gun, and if I deliver a smoking gun you have to admit that gun was smoking.”
