presidency. also offering christopher steele a million dollars to corroborate the made-up attacks against trump, something he could not do. in addition, two fbi analysts testify that they wanted to interview a clinton operative who was actually planting the russia story, but they were toll by robert mueller's team to stand down and not interview clinton's pr man, charles dolan. joining me right now is devin nuñes, the man who blew up the russia collusion lie from day one, detailing the scam in 2018 with his nuñes memo. he is currently the ceo of truth social which has been the number one downloaded app on the google app store for 48 hours. devin, good morning to you with. con congrats on the app store. >> it's great to be finally fully open for all the american people and the people in the united kingdom. thank you. maria: i want to talk to you about something you know very well, exactly what went on in

this russia probe and the igor danchenko trial. give us your sense and reaction to the headlines we saw this week that i've just detailed. >> yeah, i think i look at this in three major revelations, and the first and obvious one is this new fact that we found that steele was offered a million dollars. now, this is something that wasn't given to congress even though we had subpoenaed way back in 2017 and '18. so when they found out that steele was lying, did they go to the british government and ask for steele to be extra dieted, or did -- extra dieted? no, they didn't. instead, what did they do? even though he's on the payroll, they offer a million dollar bounty, essentially, on trump's head for him to go and prove something that the fbi already knew was false and was coming from the clinton campaign. so next up you have this revelation about danchenko. danchenko clearly was working on behalf of the clinton campaign

and the democratic national committee. he had been a longtime democratic operative working in washington, d.c., and he was the secret source, as you may recall, that the fbi led us to believe that something could happen, you know, people could die. well, when they find out that danchenko is, in fact, lying and not providing information, do they raid his house like they did at mar-a-lago and go through his, you know, underwear drawer and pull out documents of danchenko? no. what do they do? they put him, they bring him on to the payroll of the fbi. now, maria, once again this is something that should have been provided to our committee. we really would have wanted to know that this guy was now on the payroll and, as you pointed out, he then ultimately was paid $200,000. and i think third and finally what came out of this is finally we get the direct evidence that we've been missing for a long time, that the mueller or witch hunt was, in fact, a witch hunt that was designed to cover up

the involvement of the democrats and the clinton campaign. if anyone had ties to russia, it was, it was them. so do they go in and investigate, investigate can the chen coe? no. danchenko? no, what mueller does is he buries it. so essentially what's happened here is durham has oddly been prosecuting the doj and the fbi at the same time that he's prosecuting danchenko. maria: yeah. >> now, look, i think this is a problem because i'm not sure -- why is durham not bringing criminal conspiracy charges? he reports directly to biden's attorney general, and we know in this, and this is kind of the final point, we know that there are several high-level officials that were involved back in '15 and '16 in this whole conspiracy that are now sitting atop the justice department. one has to begin to ask why is durham being allowed to bring the prosecutions that he should be bringing based on all the evidence that we've seen so far in this trial.

maria: so you think that merrick garland is putting his hand on the scale and stopping him from bringing these prosecutions. >> yeah, look, and i've said this for a long time, many times on your show dating back many years, that democratic republics don't survive if you have situation where we have a two-tiered justice system where it appears that the justice department and the fbi are working on behalf of democrats and targeting republicans. maria: yeah. >> and so, you know, i don't know if durham's going to be able to finish his job or not, but one thing that's going to have to happen is there's going to have to be a commission that has not been done in a long time in congress that's going to have to be the created to look at all the malfeasance of the fbi that's not just about the russia hoax, but something that may be similar to the church commission, maybe like the 9/11 commission. you're beginning -- look, if this doesn't happen, the calls to disband the fbi are going to get louder and louder.

half of america cannot live in a system where where one party's treated differently than the other. maria: yeah. are there -- [audio difficulty] of are there talks underway right now to create a commission to bring in outsiders to investigate the fbi and dismantle this politicization? >> yeah, i mean, i'm taking a lot of calls from folks now just asking how do they get to the bottom of this. and one of the challenges that, if the republicans are to gain control, one of the challenges first will be that we now are now seeing in full light. but if you go back in time -- maria: yeah. >> -- they would constantly say, oh, we can't tell you that because there's an ongoing investigation. we, the congress. and then, well, you guys don't have the proper clearances. the fbi is very clever about hiding in these gray areas and hiding the ball from congress. so, look, this is a bad situation for the republicans to be going into, but at least we

have the experience, that experience over the last five or six years. we know now how to deal with these guys like never before, and it's going to take the full power of the speaker and the full power of a commission to get to the bottom of what actually happened here and rewrite the course of how the fbi and the justice system should operate in this country. maria: real quick, we've got to jump, i want to ask james comer about this. he will have the gavel. he's joining me right after this interview. but real quick, what do you attribute this to? was this mueller and comey, or was this even bigger than that? >> i think it's pretty simple, right? you had had the democrats under obama and biden that conspired to go out and get, and get president trump at the time and republicans, and they got knee deep in it, you know? they were worried about the hillary clinton e-mails being exposed before the 2016 election, so they decided to frame trump and try to create an october surprise. and then trump does the unbelievable and he wins, and

that's when they go into full-blown criminal conspiracy. they stand up this sham mueller witch hunt to essentially hide the ball. and then they successfully hid the ball from congress for three, four, five years and ongoing by doing these dirty tricks that just continued. so it was a whole cabal. it's clear for the american people to see, and now it's going to be up to a republican congress to get to the bottom of what happened. maria: okay. obama and clinton and biden. thanks very much is, deaf nunez, former house intelligence committee chairman, for joining us. so what will the 118 congress do about it? he is the man who will likely have the gavel in the next house oversight committee. what will representative james comer do with that subpoena power? he's next live right here. ♪ ♪ >> tech: at safelite, we take care of vehicles with the latest technology. when my last customer discovered a crack in his car's windshield, he scheduled at safelite.com.

republicans to appoint a commission to examine the politicization of the fbi. i want to bring in the man who will likely oversee the next house oversight committee, congressman james comer. we also see, congressman, that retired and disgraced former fbi operative timothy timothyty ballot is refusing to cooperate with you and the investigations into all of this. think bow, of course, opened the trump mar-a-lago investigation, killed the hunter biden laptop investigation and, by the way, was also the spokesperson for, quote-unquote, election integrity before the to -- 2020 election. congressman, thanks very much for being here today the. >> thanks for having me. maria: first off, what we just heard from devon moon yes, sir, is this support for an outside commission? would you consider put an outside commission in place to investigate the fbi? >> i would. you know, obviously, it depends on who's on the commission, but we have a huge problem with the fbi, and the fact is the american people have lost

confidence in the fbi. it's been politicized for at least six years now, and it's going in the wrong direction. every day another report comes out that's more damaging to the fbi. we certainly need to reform the fbi, we certainly need new leadership at the top. but the encouraging thing, maria, is there are dozens of agents who are coming forward to jim jordan and other members of congress to try to blow the whistle on wrongdoing at fbi. i think the majority of the agents in america want to do a good job, and we honestly need an fbi. but we don't need the leadership we have now. they should resign, they should be held accountable for wrongdoing, and we've got to repair and reform the fbi moving forward. maria: i mean, there is so much to look at from the russia collusion made-up story to the fbi protecting hillary clinton and her e-mail scandal a, to killing and censoring the hunter biden laptop story. what's most important to you? what is going to be your

priority? because i want to get into this 150 suspicious activity reports that came about of the biden family and all of their money in and out of accounts. >> yeah. i mean, you look at the facts with hunter biden and jim biden, the entire biden crime family, as i would call it, they've been influence peddling for a decade. and hunter biden's committed serious crimes. as you mentioned, 150 suspicious activity reports. those are the most severe bank violations. this is when the bank notifies the principal government that we're pretty confident our -- federal government that our client has committed a crime. he's had multiple banks file 150 suspicious activity reports saying we believe each incident was another act of a crime, but yet the fbi did nothing about it. and timothyty bow can refuse to answer our questions now, but in january after the midterms, we're hopefully going to be in the majority. i will have a gavel, i will have

subpoena power, jim jordan will have subpoena power in the judiciary committee, and tim thibault's going to be a person of interest. we need to hold people accountable in the fbi. we need to set an example, reform fbi and move forward. but priority for the oversight committee, look, we're investigating hunter biden because we believe he's a national security threat, and we fear that he's compromised joe biden. so a lot of the bad policies, the energy policies, the foreign policies that joe biden has enacted that put america last, we believe this was done because he's compromised because of his family's shady business dealings with our adversaries. maria: how are you going to get around the fact that they just won't cooperate? if that fbi agent who told us all about election integrity ordered igor danchenko to erase all evidence from his phone of his role in the attempted coup of president trump. they also hid all this stuff from devin nuñes when he was the

chairman of the intelligence committee. he didn't know that igor danchenko was on the payroll. he didn't know that they were offering christopher steele a million dollars. what are you going to do about it to get to the bottom if they keep hiding all of this stuffsome. >> we're going to use the subpoena authority. they're going to be required to testify under oath. we're also going to be deposing a lot of people. this isn't just going to be centered around the usual suspects that are in the news a lot, third bald and christopher ray. this is going to include a lot of lower level people. we're already working with whistleblower. i think we're further along than a lot of people realize with respect to trying to hold people accountable in the fbi for wrongdoing. and, look, with this hunter biden situation, it's only getting worse. a lot of people say his father did that interview on cnn and he straightened up. he got on drugs and he's straightened up now. but the influence peddling, maria, predated the drug addiction. and if you look at the story right at the beginning of the

biden administration, he sold all that artwork for half a million dollars plus. we're pretty confident that artwork went to china, and we want to mow more about who bought that -- know more about who bought that. there's been misdeeds that have happened with hunter biden in both the obama/biden administration and the biden administration. so we've got a lot of answers to get for the american people. we're not going to let up, but we have to have subpoena power. so these november 8th elections are crucial to be able to give the american people the answers they want. and the last thing that you know everyone that watches your show, maria, they want people held accountable for wrong doing. seems like no one's ever been held accountable for wrongdoing. we realize this in a republican majority, and we want to focus on trying to hold people accountable in addition to fixing the problems at the fbi and with the biden influence peddling. maria: congressman, this could not be more important. the three countries that apparently have given the biden family the most money, china -- tens of millions of dollars --

russia, which we know, we have identified a half million dollar check from the former mayor of moscow's wife, ukraine which is now getting crushed by russia. these are the cups that joe biden -- countries that joe biden has to make decisions about on behalf of the american people. how can he if he's come prohissed and has taken all this money? look at this last e-mail that was exposed by your colleague, devin nuñes -- i'm sorry, darrell issa from the hunter laptop, and it basically shows jim biden trying to lobby the car tarries, say -- qataris, saying my family can offer introductions at the highest level, and here you are telling us about the art. how much arrogance can one have after all of in that has been exposed in a laptop that you can actually begin becoming president and have your son do artwork and sell it to the chinese?

still continuing that influence peddling even while he's the sitting president. >> it's sickening. and, again, where was the fbi on all of this? that e-mail shows that this family was engaged in influence peddling. there's a lawsuit in kentucky now with the president's brother where he was trying to sell his services to a health care start-up many nashville, tennessee, that he could acquire seed capital from the united arab emirates. so it's not just china, ukraine, russia, it's the middle east too. all the places where joe biden's made huge mistakes, huge mistakes, you can trace back to influence peddling from his family. and that's why it's so important that we investigate hunter biden, because he has probably compromised this administration, and the american people deserve better. maria: yeah. and tony bobulinski told me that their next sights were on colombia, brazil and that part of the world. so he were not stopping at all -- they were not stop thing at all. congressman, thank you. we will continue following your very, very important work with. we will see you soon,

congressman if james comer. today the chinese communist party gips its 20th national congress where president xi jinping is seeking a third term. will he get even more aggressive from here? former secretary of sate mike pompeo will join me next to examine the threat and connect the dots to national security. stay with us. ♪ pain hits fast. so get relief fast. only tylenol rapid release gels have laser drilled holes. they release medicine fast for fast pain relief. and now get relief without a pill with tylenol dissolve packs. relief without the water.

maria: welcome back. we have been discussing corruption at the highest levels of government, now connecting the dots to the national security lets that these actions represent. today is the start of the ccp's 20th national congress in beijing where president xi jinping is expected to be anointed dictator for life.

china's economy has exploded there from almost $114 billion in 1972 to nearly $18 trillion in 2021, second only ott united states. some say the ccp has done this partly by steal ising secrets and intellectual property from the west, importantly, from america. joining me right now on the threat china possesses to u.s. national security including after biden's family influence peddling, former secretary of state and fox news contributor mike pompeo. mr. secretary, it's always a pleasure to see you, thanks very much for being here. >> it's great to be with you, maria. maria: so you've heard what we've been talking about this morning. can you connect the dots to a national security threat that represents? >> undoubtedly. if you have senior leaders, certainly the president of the united states and his family members, but i also think of the folks that are in the biden administration's cabinet who worked on behalf of the chinese communist party, they had clients in china deeply connected, i think we're only beginning to pull the threads.

and if you don't have actors who are putting the american people first, if there are other things, personal family interests or former business interests or friends that are still out doing that kind of peddling, it creates enormous national security risks. we need leaders at every level of the country focused singularly on representing the people they've been elected to serve. maria: talk about what the ccp's goals are. here we are on on beginning of the new people's congress, and their stated goal has to become the number one superpower, overtaking the united states. obviously, easier to do if you've got a commander in chief who's compromised. [laughter] >> no doubt. look, it's been very clear for a couple decades that this was their mission. the chinese communist party has been at war with the united states, economic war for all of that time. the united states just turned the other cheek. this has been are republicans and democrats alike. we were the first administration to cop front them in a d confront them in a serious way. you gave the statistics about

chinese economic growth. that was almost all on the backs of the american people, lost intellectual property you describedded. the only way they were able to grow was by cheating and allowing the chinese communist party to compete on terms that made it fundamentally unfair for american companies. we need leaders that are prepared to address this to challenge it. when we do, we'll be successful, i'm confident about that. but if there's any doubt about the communist party's intentions, these next couple days where the congress is meeting, i think it'll be a lie to any doubt about the chinese objective. maria: that is just extraordinary. and china sent a letter to the hudson institute about you. tell me about that letter and why -- [laughter] it is that they are so afraid of what you were able to do on your term? you had indictments, a stringing of indictments out of the koj, which basically -- can doj, which basically underlined exactly what was taking place. the embassy in houston you shut

>> we were doesn't truly represent the chinese people, you can see that with the detd to protests takinf today, but i think it was deeper than that. i think they're sending a message to every americanto leader t. i think the note was to every american leader, if youcy challenge us f, if you threaten us, if you shut down our spying operations in the united states, ifdo you begin to president and keith those -- prosecute andco indict those stealing secrets,es then we'll comene after you the same way the same they -- wayth they've come afterin me.

they'r ae determined, they are serious, and our response needs to equal that in every measure, maria. maria: my question is why is this administration continuing to roll over for these dictators and these adversaries against america?r take iran.u we've hatod nearly five weeks of countless innocent lives lost during peaceful protests in iran. we are seeing courage in plaint sight by women, by the iranian people calling for the supreme leader's death. isn't it time to hear something about this from thees administration? we have not heard a word aboutea what's taking place in iran right now from this administration.es instead, they're continuin lg to pursue an iran deal which, of course, would strengthen the hand of the iranian leadership. your thoughts on, by what's goin right now in iran. >> first of all, bless these protesters. i hope the lord watches over them. he was been courageous, they have beewen strong. they are putting light to what

the islamic republic's regime has done to them for so many years, and i wish them every success. but those wishes are insufficient when you have an. american government that has essentially sided with the regime. they came in, maria, you remember, within days and liftee sanctions against the houthis. they're not sufficient terrorists that we're going torg continue to sanction them. they were trying to cut this crazt y deal that guarantees ao pathway to a nuclear weapon for th te iranian are regime and gis them billions of dollars more to terrorize the very women hardov out oner the streets protesting. it isents crazy. and now the iranians are sending weapons to the russians as well this will be bad for the ukrainians, the very people we're supporting. i don't understand this policy. i hope hale change their direction, the biden administration. i see no indication of that. maria: i'm really glad you mentioned that.th they'rate sending weapons to russia to strengthen russia's a hand as it kills ukrainians. you're out with a new book called "never give an inch." it is availablnevee for preorder right now.ratu

maria: many july zeldin was attacked while on the campaign trail by a man wielding a sharp object as crime has become a central issue in deep blue new york. zeldin is within 2 the points of

republicans. candidate, congressman lee zeldin himself ising with called a toss-up. >> that's right. i'm feeling it on the ground. i don't care whether i'm in a republican county or a blue county, i could be talking to a republican, democrat, independent, a lot of new yorkers are just really fed up with kathy hochul. she's doing a terrible job as governor. new yorkers are leaving this country, this state more than any other state across the entire country. and the reason why is because albany if has been attacking their safe safety, attacking their wallets, and they're heading for opportunities elsewhere. so there's a vibe on the ground that there needs balance restored to albany. people want to save the sate, today -- state, they want to save new york city, and they're tired of having to wake up every morning and read the headlines of rise rising crime in their own neighborhood, places where they used to feel safe and walk

the streets comfortably, and now they're calling an uber just to go a couple of blocks. maria: that's right. real clear politics said it was a toss-up yesterday. let me ask you, congressman, what your plans are should you win in your first 100 days. what are you going to do? >> you know, listen, i want to do everything i possibly can in the first 100 minutes. i want to have a very active day one. i just announced a couple of days ago as soon as i am sworn into office, i'm going to be declaring a crime emergency here in the state of new york, i'm going to suspend new york's cashless bail laws and some other pro-criminal laws that have been passed, force the legislature to come to the table to negotiate an improvement because we have to take back our streets. we need law-abiding new yorkers back in control instead of criminals. and there are people in charge from kathy hochul to these democrats controlling state legislature who feel that they haven't passed enough pro-criminal laws.

so this is an action on day one. i previously announced my first action is telling the manhattan district attorney, alvin bragg, that he's being removed for his refusal to enforce the law. we need to support our men and women in law enforcement. we need to make sure whether it's cashless bail, less is more, halt act, some of these other names of laws that have passed which don't get as much attention are resulting in people getting hurt, law-abiding new yorkers getting hurt. so i'm pretty motivated to do everything in my power in the first 100 minutes to take back the statement. and, listen, there'sst there's going to be opportunities beyond that, but we're gown to have an aggressive day one so that new yorkers know we're wasting no time to restore the state to glory. maria: well, the city and the state are a mess, that i can certainly prove. i live there. and i will tell you that part of the conversation in new york is also about these migrants coming in, illegal migrants. mayor adams now says he is going

to be setting up shelters all throughout new york. the migrants are going to school in new york. give us a sense of some of the benefits that these illegal migrants get when these buses show up in new york and these people want work, they get free cell phones. what else do they get? >> yeah. they're getting free housing, they have access to schools, they have access to hospitals. they are able to, in many respects, get incentivized and rewarded from the federal government, the state government and the city. and that's only encouraging more people to come across every day. and that's a burden. it costs a lot of money. but here's the thing, we hear about this red state v. blue state battle, a blue city mayor v. a red city mayor. but even if hay got totally on the same page and were working perfectly in unison to tackle this crime, this rising migrants coming across, people but also things like fentanyl and other

illicit drugs, even if they were totally on the same page, it doesn't solve this because you still have people and things coming across every single day. you need the federal government to step in. biden, the biden administration must lead or this will never get tackled. we need to see them secure the southern border. they need to finish construction of the border wall, end end catch and release, enforce the remain in mexico policy as we were talking about, stop incentivizing and rewarding illegal entry. they should be supporting customs and border patrol agents. if you secure our southern border, then all the different levels of government, republicans and democrats all working together, you can actually solve this. but this is only going to get worse if the federal government and joe biden doesn't step in to lead. maria: well, will you support the nypd? you know, when you're looking specifically at new york, at the impact on new york, it has been bloodshed whether it be defund the police or cashless bail. tell me about that.

and in terms of the economy, another major issue, how long is it going to take to bring this state back to glory? you've got people leaving because of all of these issues. >> i mean, in a way we're going to make huge progress in 23 days. you're going to have a lot of new yorkers who are thinking about fleeing who will decide not to leave because they see that new york is heading for a different direction, they've elected a new governor. we will win this race because we have to win this race. so in a way, this starts on election night 23 days from now. we need everyone to participate. you asked about supporting nypd, absolutely. i would unapolo jettically back our men and women in law enforcement. they should have all the tools and resources they need to do their jobs safely and effectively. i was raised in a law enforcement household. one weekend one law enforcement household, a weekend in another one. as far as the nypd goes, our running mate, allison esposito,
