The media is trying to protect 2020 presidential contender Joe Biden from scrutiny over his son’s business dealings in Ukraine, Fox News host Mark Levin said Monday on “Hannity”.
“You have a massive Democrat scandal here and that’s why the media is conducting themselves the way they are. That’s why the Democrats are trying to turn this inside-out. To immunize Biden and to attack Trump, but it won’t work,” he argued, accusing Biden of obstructing justice while he was vice president to protect his son and a future presidential bid.
Hunter Biden had been investigated related to his ties to a Ukrainian energy company.
