Hunter Biden’s former business partner sat down with Tucker Carlson yesterday and discussed why he decided to speak up now.

He says that the Biden & Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff has "tarred" his family name and want to clear it because his family has "a long history of serving this country".

Transcripts from RealClearPolitics:

BOBULINSKI: I'm only sitting here because they have not -- not only have they not gone on record, they've denied it and they've tarred my family name and a long history of serving this country -- and have other congressmen out talking about Russian disinformation.

I held a top secret clearance from the NSA and the DOE. I served this country for four years in one of the most elite environments in the world, Naval Nuclear Power Training Command.

And to have a congressman out there speaking about Russian disinformation or Joe Biden at a -- at a public debate referencing Russian disinformation, when he knows he sat face-to-face with me, that I was -- traveled around the world with his son and his brother, to say that and associate that with my name is absolutely disgusting to me.

CARLSON: Have you -- did you complain about that? I mean, to suggest that you were committing treason or a part of a foreign attack on our democracy, which is how they characterized it, I mean that's such a serious and, I think, unfair charge --

BOBULINSKI: Yes.

CARLSON: Did you bring this up with them?

BOBULINSKI: Well, in a basic form, you're exactly right. They are publicly accusing me of treason right now. Treating me like I'm insignificant or the 50 years of history that my family has served this country is insignificant.

And that's why I'm sitting here having this -- I assure you, this is the absolute last place I want to be right now and the last thing I want to be doing right now, but I feel like I have a patriotic duty to this country and every American citizen to go on record and define the facts for them and let them do their own work, let them decide how they view those facts or not.

But for the Biden family to deny these facts -- and then not only deny them, they could’ve just said no comment, but they didn’t say no comment. They then brought in Russian disinformation and basically associated my name with that, which is absolutely disgusting to me, and I had to go on the record.

Last weekend, I was in Virginia. Sadly, my sister-in-law passed away at around 6:38 Saturday morning. That’s the wife of my brother who spent 28 years serving this country as a naval flight officer and just retired. So, you can imagine me dealing with that and the tragedy of that.

When I saw Adam Schiff go on record talking about Russian disinformation after this email had been posted online by the “New York Post” -- and remember that email was to me from James Gilliar, right. It wasn’t -- I wasn’t blind carboned or CC’d on that, it was to me stating that I was going to be the CEO of his enterprise.

I was at the end of my rope, and so I called Rob Walker and I told him that if that statement isn’t retracted by Congressman Schiff by midnight on Sunday, that I was going on record and I was disclosing all the facts to the American government, to the American citizens, and the world.

I was hoping the Biden’s would do the right thing or Schiff would retract his statement, but I could not allow another minute, another hour or day for my family’s name to be associated or muddied up around Russian disinformation.

So, even as I sit here today, I would ask the Biden family to come on record and stop using my name or associating it with Russian disinformation. It’s absolutely disgusting.

CARLSON: So this is Rob Walker, the representative of the Biden family. I believe his wife worked for the Biden family, apparently. So you said this to him, I won’t go public, I just want them to retract the accusation that I’m an instrument of Russian disinformation. What did he say?

BOBULINSKI: That’s correct. Rob was under a tremendous amount of stress.

CARLSON: Right.

BOBULINSKI: Obviously he has a wife and a child, and he said, listen, let me make some calls, let me call George, who’s Hunter Biden’s lawyer, and see what I can do. But he sort of presented it as if that’s going to be impossible for me to get done.

And I’m not naive; I know that’s not impossible to do. That’s a single phone call from Joe Biden to Adam Schiff saying, basically, go on record and retract your statement, you got over your skis.

And when I -- I was up late that night, and when the statement wasn’t retracted come Monday morning, I was ready to go on record and what -- how that record was, I was willing to go in front of any senator, any congressman, the Department of Justice, the FBI, or sit here with you, Tucker, and basically provide the facts to the American people and let them make their decision.

This isn’t a political focus of mine. People were accusing my family of treason after I served this country and defended this country.

CARLSON: So, the reason you wound up here in this interview, and I just want to affirm for our audience that I don’t think you had any desire to do this interview--

BOBULINSKI: Absolutely no desire.

CARLSON: -- is because nobody else told your story. So were you surprised, given the trove of documents you have, given the credibility that I think is apparent that you have, that no other news organization took the time to unpack this story?

BOBULINSKI: Surprise is probably an understatement of the year -- shocked -- because it would be different if this was my word against Jim Biden, Hunter Biden, and Joe Biden.

CARLSON: Right.

BOBULINSKI: That would be a very slippery slope, not something I would take the personal and family risk on it, but I’ve provided more documents and facts that validate times, meetings, who participated. That email to me on May 13th was generated by somebody else sent to me, it wasn’t me generating.

These text messages that I’ve provided are Hunter Biden in the first person, Jim Biden in the first person, James Gilliar in the first person, Rob Walker in the first person. It’s not me generating the text messages, it’s them speaking. So, you can interview them, the FBI can interview them, our government can interview them.

But I was shocked that not only the media is not only discussing this, they’re going to the other extreme, they’re dismissing it as Russian disinformation. This country has heard enough about Russia. We went through three years of every day, Russia, Russia, Russia, it’s just absurd. The cold war is over.
