john trump. he was the man who lied for months, and set these people in motion, convinced them there was something to fight about, convinced them that their country was being stolen, the election was being stolen, and he spun them up and the only person who could unspin them, if he was inclined to do it, was donald j. trump and they all knew that. >> and, george, so much of this has to do with the planning for january 6th and what that looked like. and some texts from katrina -- >> i'm sorry, i can't hear you. >> can you hear me now? george, just stick around with us. we're going to make sure your audio is working and we'll get back to you. we have a lot that we do want to discuss with you. >> we'll talk more about george about the new texts, also ask him about what he thinks about the future of twitter under the probable future owner, elon musk. >>> and dr. deborah birx reveals she considered going to the press to say that the trump administration was dropping the ball on the pandemic. we'll tal

thanks to the madness of donald trump and trumpism, and thanks to the beating john ossoff delivered to the republicans in his winning senate campaign that gave control of the united states senate to the democrats. disarray, to put it mildly, has developed among the republicans. in georgia. john ossoff crushed david perdue's hopes for reelection to the senate. and, now david perdue is desperately running for governor of georgia, with donald trump support against incumbent republican governor brian kemp. donald trump's hatred of brian kemp is based on governor kemp's refusal to commit state and federal crimes and try to overthrow the election results for the president in georgia. and before i tell you which of these candidates is way ahead of the other, take a look at the republican disarray in georgia caused by donald trump and senator john ossoff, who will be joining us on this program tonight. >> first off, folks, let me be very clear tonight. the election in 2020 was rigged and stolen. all the madness we see from the biden administration, all of the other, take a look at the republic

john trump. it is very simple. [cheers and applause] so simple. it is so simple. rachel: it is simple, right? pete: so simple. i agree, yet so impossible considering the left-wing box that this administration put themselves into, from the border which we talked talked about la, we'll talk more this morning. simply enforcing it, putting policies in place would stem the tied of the invasion we're seeing. unleashing domestic production or what about nuclear power? nuclear power is clean? rachel: i will not say that word. nuclear. pete: nuclear power. it is all there if you want it. rachel: this is the problem with the biden administration has. the problem they have is just one year, two years, a year-and-a-half ago really you could say, you, we had the best economy going. we had you know, our border controlled. just had these two young hispanic women that are running for congress in southern texas. people can remember the record-breaking trump economy. people can remember when we were energy indepen

caller: people need to stop listening to donald john trump. all he does is lies. how would you like it if i put all the people behind that border wall and see what it is like? people are discriminating against mexican people and that is not right. people should not discriminate against people. it is wishy-washy. people are listening to president trump he lies. host: caller, where are you calling from. ? caller: i am calling from sherman, texas. i have to different subject. structural intelligence to help stabilize our democracy. that is some type -- the recent translation revealed that is because of a manipulation of facts. if you want to talk about something, everybody have to pull from same facts. if we devise some type of system where we pull from a common set of facts that is government stamped, we would eliminate all of these opinions of somebody else facts or alternative facts. and be able to move forward. the average joe who does not watch tv and politics knows that one plus one equals two. right now, one plus one equals four or five because the facts are m

john trump. it's very simple. [cheering] so simple. so simple. lauren: well, one food thing about trump's presidency is that we did have, we were exporting oil. we had super low gas prices and i have heard this in "the wall street journal" i heard it from an did i puzder this morning on "fox & friends." if you did what trump did to the oil companies and industry crude prices would fall $20 a barrel just like that. maybe it is so simple. the left will not let joe biden do that but that is what the former president says he should do. stuart: i tend to agree with him too. los angeles county will pay some residents $1000 a month for three years, no string attached this. is the universal basic income program. kelly o'grady in california. you're at a restaurant. is the owner worried he will find it hard to get and keep staff? reporter: very worried, stuart. i mean he is already struggling to find and retain quality workers as is. los angeles is just the latest county to explore universal basic income.

there was 73 million voters voted for president donald john trump, and somehow biden walks into office. and then he stole the votes from the voters and said we cannot have this dealing but he did he stole the votes. host: that is paula in alabama. jesus in florida, good morning, your next. caller: good morning. host: your thoughts on the biden administration's handling of immigration? caller: i do not think [indiscernible] they have to go to the american way to do things, together. just don't give it to the other people. he is doing that. i am an immigrant from 55 years in this country and now i can work. i'm 74 years old. i did everything they asked and they still point you into [indiscernible] you are illegal. i came here to this country legally. i waited a year and a half to do paperwork and then when they let me, i came. so this is the greatest country in the world and they are not acting like the greatest country. host: what could the administration be doing more? where are they falling down? caller: i think you would have to go back years, how many years -- the football team has

trump. and john macisaac, he suffered death threats, harassment and even had to close his business after being smeared and slandered by the mob and the media. later he will join us for an exclusive interview. and it's not just a story about hunter biden, his dad, big joey, and now both "the washington post" in "the new york times" have suddenly verified the information. here's the former white house chief of staff along with our fox news contributor. two weeks before the 2020 election mark. and this is a surprise of all surprises. and they never cared to even ask a question on if it's true. they immediately donated to the presidential campaign and covered it up for him. and somehow this has to be against the law. tech data, media data, everyone said it. >> that's right, the media covering anything newsworthy as it relates to joe biden, and at that particular point. and he was sounding the alarm at that very time. >> when you look at it, you can't ignore the fact that it was a negative story

trump and john eastman were doing -- and i think we can now add don jr. in the mix. they were involved in a coup, in search of a legal theory. don junior does that even make the pretext of looking for legal theory. he says the voters are irrelevant. now before the vote tallies were complete. and please, let a prosecutor take them into a courtroom. 12 people in the box. >> one of the things i'm taking from this to, glenn, is that i knew two days after that election that biden had won this thing. fox called arizona for biden on election night. and all the information and the data that we were getting was supporting a biden win a week. it was never ever trending. the people who call these things in the networks were being incredibly careful about it. and waited until november seven. it could have been called earlier. but they did it in the most conservative way. with this says to me that they knew in the white house, the trump family, two days after the election, that donald trump had lost. he's not going to win the votes. forget about counting votes this we

than not that john eastman and donald trump committed felony criminal acts. my question for you is how is john eastman, and he's in your state, you live in the state where it happened. how is he sort of lifted up still by this version of the republican party to continue to spread what the judge describes as the clearest and gravest threat to our democracy? >> first of all, this is really a hell of a story and that's a hell of a story from the judge, who as mike said is very well-known in conservative legal circles and very, very well respected and measures his words. so when he says this is a clear and present danger, people ought to pay attention. and the fact is that it reminds us this an ongoing coup. yes, it's preposterous that you were talking about decertifying the election, but this is feeding those doubts and it is laying the groundwork for future action. also, it is providing more oxygen to this vast network of grifters, charlene la ton and demagogues who continue to push these big lies. for your listeners, if you spent any time in this alternative r

trump and john eastman we're doing, and i think we can now add don jr. in the mix, they were involved in a coup in search of a legal theory. don jr. doesn't even make the pretense of looking for a legal theory. he says the voters are elect irrelevant. my father must be installed for a second term now, even before the vote tallies are complete. i mean, please, let our prosecutor take that into a courtroom and presented to 12 people in the box. >> you know, glenn, one of the things i am taking from this also is that i knew at that time, two days after the election, and that biden had won this thing. fox called arizona for a biden on election night and all of the information, and all of the data we were getting, were supporting a biden win all week. it was never ever trending toward trump. the people who called these things and their networks have been incredibly careful about it. and waited until november 7th it. could've been called earlier, but they didn't most conservative way, so what this says to me is they knew in the white house, they knew in the tr

"donald trump unequivocally, without a smidge of doubt, knows exactly what a burner phone is." he recalls trump using the term "burner phones" in several discussions and that trump was aware of its meaning bolton also said he and trump have spoken about how people have used burner phones to avoid having their calls scrutinized >> i heard him use the term "burner phone" a number of times. >> he said, "burner phones" in conversation >> he did, yes it was a term he actually kind of liked he'd say, "you know, they have these burner phones. >> seth: trump always makes it so easy to contradict him by going overboard with his defense. like if you just said, "i've never used a burner phone," that would be hard to disprove. but when he says i've never even heard of the term, a bunch of people are immediately like, "yeah, no, he has. [ light laughter ] it's like, if your parents said they found weed in your sock drawer and your response was, "what the hell's a sock? [ laughter ] and you keep them in drawers, you say? this is all news to me i am an innocent man, i tell you! these two epis

do people remember that donald trump did not even take a paycheck for four years? host: that is janet. on hillary clinton, this story on the front page of the washington times today, reporting on special counsel john durham revealing that employees of the research firm fusion gps sent journalists hundreds of emails with unverified accusations against donald trump to trigger negative news stories. the researcher tried to sell news stories. durham responding to people with ties to the clinton campaign to keep potentially explosive evidence out of his hands during the upcoming trial of a clinton campaign lawyer accused of lying to the fbi. in a motion filed monday, durham said the emails undercuts the assertions of the clinton campaign officials that fusion gps's research for them should be protected under attorney-client privilege. jeff murdoch with that story. he's been a guest on that program -- on this program before to talk about his reporting. william in ohio, you are next. caller: good morning, john. this is the old crazy tennessean again. it is a shame. we don

and john bolton's been pretty on point on this one, donald trump would withdraw from nato, and then there -- vladimir putin wouldn't have to contend with this notion of a nato response or a concerted response. donald trump would fracture any efforts to cohere around imposing costs on putin. that's what he was hoping for. in reality that didn't happen, so relatively quickly and with the opportunities presented by donald trump not -- continuing to rabble rouse, continuing to basically bring the republican party to oppose democracy and to sow discord he went for plan b. plan b was pretty straightforward. ukraine continues to slip through my fingers, vladimir putin thinks, he kind of sets the fact that ukraine would be a more difficult problem -- he didn't accurately assess how difficult it was already. he failed to miss those signals. but he decided to act. plan b would be to go after ukraine before it's too late. plan a was certainly waiting for donald trump to do his damage and then just waltz in there and have it handed to him on a silver platter. >> amazing, amazing state of affair

trump, john eastman and others committed crimes related to the effort to overturn the election, but perhaps more importantly reporting that the january 6th investigation, which is the largest investigation in the department of justice history, has expanded its scope beyond the day of january 6th. and i and others have been calling for that investigation to broaden and widen and include the months leading up to january 6th and the evidence that the judge in california cited for why he thought that more likely than not donald trump and others committed crimes. and so, if we are to take judge garland at his word, which we have no reason not to, then they are following the facts and the law, and they're expanding the scope, and the judge carter out in los angeles laid out the facts, so if you are following the facts and the law, as garland has promised, then you must include those facts that judge carter cited and that we know to be in the public record. as a former prosecutor, i can say those facts are significant and meaningful evidence that the former president and others committed c

donald trump to russian bank were untrue and unsupported. john durham explained while the fbi did not reach an ultimate conclusion, the data was found to not be technically plausible, did not withstand scrutiny, contained gaps and was user created and not machine generated. michael sussmann is accused of lying to the fbi for not saying who he was working for when he came forward to report information. his trial will begin next month. >> todd: democrats and members of media bashing elon musk for fighting cnnorship and buying twitter. >> elon musk is a danger to freedom of speech. creating arena of hate is what that sounds like, opportunity for him to have no consequences. >> carley: danger to free speech. joe concha joins us now, what do you make of that comment? >> joe: has this person ever been on twitter before? i'm pretty sure right now it is an arena for hate, a hell scape. if elon musk comes in, utaupia will change in a hurry and meltdown over the takeover is the best comedy ever, guys. look, i think the real underlining story, one woul

trump. >> john: seven bedrooms and bathrooms, according to a real estate listing, and even hosted the likes of humphrey bogart and marilyn monroe. b.l.m. says the home will be used to further their mission but republicans are crying foul and crying on the feds to take a closer look into the matter. brian kilmeade is "fox and friends" co-host and "one nation," new york magazine goes after democrats, right? >> always, constantly, i don't know what kind of new york magazine your paperboy drops off, but i have a different one, john. but having said that, that is significant. they don't wake up every day wondering how to take down a democratic cause. >> john: i was kidding. >> i know. and black lives matter comes out and rolls out in 2020 in a major way and not only millions of dollars, evidently have 60 million left, many have done the math, including professor riley, and they think it's more like $10 billion they have. the question is, where is this money? are they in individual chapters and how dare you use money without explaining why you need a $5 million mansion, like you need anothe

laura, after a lot of media speculation, donald trump said he'd never heard of a burner phone, john bolton said, no, trump has discussed burner phones several times, but that's irrelevant if there's no need to use such a phone because other people are placing the calls. >> i think a couple things. one, "the washington post" story was accurate and did say it was common practice for trump. that could explain those logs. i think we have to distinguish between what pundits are saying and their interpretation and is what actual journalists are writing and producing in terms of stories. i didn't actually see all of that indictment outside of pundits interpreting what was being said. but i think what it does shine a light on is the absolute vacuum of coverage. no leaks from merrick garland's justice department. and we know this common practice of trump flouting the presidential records act, we know he likes to destroy documents, he likes to take the documents down to mar-a-lago. that is why we see these large gaps and no accounting with the archives that were then subpoenaed. there's also merrick

most notably that of former president donald trump. twitter shares left by 27 percent after the news. let's go over to john's court and now in new york. yearns you on mosque has had plenty to say about twitter in recent weeks. what can we expect of him as a shareholder? most clearly has a complicated relationship with twitter just a couple of weeks ago. must make to the accused. twitter of violating the freedom of speech, saying that they're threatening democracy and hinted at starting his own social media platform. so now you might just be, but i think the entire piece of twitter, i mean, not so far, but that could happen in the future as far as we knows, it's right now and pets. if investment, meaning that there is no official tendency of a mask to get a seat in the board or to bring his own people into the board of twitter, but clearly that might change him in the future. what we do know is that mosque in general would prefer it decentralized twitter, so less influence. so what happens on the social media platform? but clearly one of the big questions that what speed also is asking

john, speaking of november, the former president of the united states, donald trump, has made an endorsement in the pennsylvania republican primary for senate. he's backing dr. mehmet oz and not david mccormick who is a hedge fund operator, worked in the george w. bush white house, hope hicks and other trumpers worked for. >> i think the foerm president listened to the hannitys and he said it himself. if you've been on television 18 years, that's a poll. people must like you if you've been on television all that long. there were a lot of people you mentioned, the former trump staffers who worked for mccormick. a lot of people say he's a safer candidate, more discipline, fewer controversial positions. going back to the tape library and seeing what oz has said on television. will this be a race where a state like pennsylvania, the republican senator is retiring, democrats need to win that race. the math and the dynamics, the wins are all against the democrats at this moment. they need that race. is donald trump doing them a favor here? a long list of things to watch. that race is one of them.

mitch mcconnell said that after donald trump incited the insurrection at the capitol, that's when he said that. and mcconnell told republican senators including john thune, report meant that he was leaning toward voting to convict donald trump in the impeachment trial in the senate but richard connally didn't do that because he is a coward. when speaker pelosi and house democrats started publicly discussing impeachment don trump for the january 6th attack on the capitol. mitch mcconnell privately said, the democrats are going to take care of this son of a bitch for us. mitch mcconnell and kevin mccarthy knew that the democrats had enough votes to impeach donald trump in the house but at least 17 republicans would have to vote to convict on trump in the senate to reach the two thirds threshold for conviction. and all trump was not convicted in the senate because mitch mcconnell is not a leader. kevin mccarthy and mitch mcconnell are well on their way to being lost to history because american history forgets the cowards. mitch mcconnell could've been kentucky's most consequential senat

what role, if any, did the 2016 hillary clinton campaign have in trying to tie donald trump to russian interest? special counsel john durham lead the prosecution former campaign lawyer michael saysman claims part of the data sussmann was peddling to the government in 2016 and 2017 was not technically plausible. did not contain jute any. conflicted gaps and conflicted with itself and user-created and not machine-tool generated. you recall sussmann is charged for lying to the fbi denying he worked for the campaign while offering up data he said convertly then tied trump to a bank. sources tell fox news it's the cia had examined her data provided by sussmann back in 2017 and found it was not accurate; however, the special counsel has made it clear his office has not reached a definitive conclusion in this regard. still, the government wants to use the evidence at trial to establish whether successman's alleged lies influenced or impaired government functions. in case you are wondering for his part sussmann has not yet responded to these latest allegations from durham. has already repeated

we need people like donald trump was nothing to lose. like me we're gonna think loose. none of this will see stuff that's been going on. >> there's a reporter from new york times who a sizzling from sarah palin and donald trump and his new book, insurgency. and there are a lot of similarities in a straight line from palin to trump. you do wonder, it's one of these, can you go home again kind of moments, whether the shifting of politics and to the direction of trump and matt gates, and those figures means it's easier for her? and whether this is a natural fit, or maybe it's hard to pull off? >> well, there was nothing i wondered when i was reporting this week, that was sarah palin the canary in the coal mine? or was she an anomaly. and it turns out, she's not an anomaly. sarah palin is the republican party. i think that you don't need to go very far back into republican party history to understand why she clicks with the voters. he has always been somebody who has been seen as one of you. when she was in alaska, she clicked with voters because people saw themselves in he

i like the fact that he spoke honestly about donald trump. he will wind up being another john boehner because he has heart. politics sometimes, i understand that, and -- anyway. host: this story from the new york times makes you think better of kevin mccarthy as a democrat? caller: yes. i do. at first, i didn't like him, but i read the story and i like the -- but when he just recently set about donald trump, i mean, he was sincere, calm when he said it and had his whereabouts with him, but earlier u.s. to democrat about the hitler story. tony schwartz is a ghostwriter -- host: we never have to you will productive -- we never have too productive of a discussion we have hitler conversations so that is why we are holding off on that. anthony, michigan, good morning. caller: about the mccarthy thing, i'm not into this congressional investigation format. if there are criminal acts to be uncovered, and it than i think a court of law -- uncovered, then i think it would be a court of law. think about the 9/11 commission, what a joke that was, so, hey

michael sussmann is accused of lying about donald trump's ties to a bank. michael sussmann faces up to five years in prison. the suspect that killed six people might get paid $7000. the jail is accused of being responsible when he was attacked by gang members. the decision to settle was economic and trial would likely be pushed out due to covid. martin has a criminal rap sheet dating back to 2013. >> carley: thank you, ashley. ukraine claiming victory as it says it significantly damaged one of russia's most important war ships carrying 500 russian soldiers, largest defeat of a russian ship since world war ii. >> todd: griff jenkins. >> griff: breaking news, you can see the satellite images, this russian war ship photo was taken several days ago, it is a significant ship in the black sea that was hit by missiles and significantly damaged. this is the cruiser named mosgo. it was made famous when snake island told it where to go. we are trying to get details and information on. there were unconfirmed reports, unconfirmed, it had sunk, it is significant strike

trump to a russian bank were untrue and unsupported, special counsel john durham explains in the filing that while the fbi did not reach an ultimate conclusion, the cia found the data to be "not technically possible, did not withstand technical scrutiny, contained gaps, conflicted with itself, and was user having created and not machine have until generated. generated." coming with the case with sussman, being accused of not revealing he has working for, he has pled not guilty, trial set to begin next month. carley, todd? >> carley: thank you. "saturday night live," began leak and update marketing elon musk at the last panics over his push to expand twitter. >> elon musk offered to buy twitter for over $40 million with his free-speech rules. that's how badly white guys -- he built electric cars, go to mars, why is he even involving himself with twitter. to be like if the prince of england gave it up just mary and actor. >> carley: the author here, reporting that fabrication, and radically alter history. good morning to you. another joke, they refer to twitter as a sad and depressing and

sussmann brought the fbi with special counsel john durham claims was false information about donald trump's campaign communicating with a russian bank. durham claims that sussmann told the fbi he was not working for a client when he delivered the information but, instead, billed the clinton campaign soon after that meeting. according to judge christopher cooper the trial will zero in on if sussmann lied. in court today, bret, durham's team argued that the jury should be able to hear about british spy christopher steele and his opposition research on trump. sussmann's defense called steele a lightning rod. they do not want him discussed. also the judge ruled today that a hillary clinton tweet from october 2016 alleging that covert communications tie between donald trump and russia will not be admitted as evidence despite durham's request. several sources briefed tell fox news there is no indication that hillary clinton herself will be criminally charged in this probe but legal experts say her name may show up elsewhere. when the time comes durham writes his narrative report i don't think he

i want to give you a few -- people want to say hi, talk to donald trump last week and told him i was coming. you wants to thank you for your support and he says he would love to be here and address you and if he was i wouldn't be here so i am glad he didn't come. i talked to sarah huckabee sanders two hours ago, she wishes you could be here. she has a lot of baseball with her kids, but a wonderful up and calm her, running a great race. also tell you you have a great governor. you get to -- like you are not -- don't see everybody every day but get to work with people and we say what that person did well so i will do it better. we are all competing. asa does a great job. i served with him for two years the last two years i was governor of florida and he is working to make sure arkansas -- when i got elected my job was beat texas and i hope everyone is trying to beat florida. that was my goal. i try to get everyone to brag as well as my friend from texas did. that was hard to do. i think everybody, barbara, for what you are doing. what you are doing tonight is the reason we win races. w

eastman and donald trump in their conspiracy. this is a text exchange from jim jordan to mark meadows. jordan texts this on january 6, 2021, vice president mike pence is president of the senate should call out all electoral votes that he believes are unconstitutional as no electoral votes at all opinion mark meadows, quote, i have pushed for this. not sure it's going to happen. is that a confession to doing what that federal judge described as likely felony criminal acts? >> pretty close, and the push for this is in the filing and he goes on stephen engel, the office of legal counsel and engel says we're not in the business of asking the senate what to do. go away, and he pursues it anyway and he clearly knows it's unlawful and all of these things happen and it's all about intents and when you know it's unlawful he's pushing on georgia, we know and by the way, many representatives and scott perry in pennsylvania, we know are now pushing it. that takes it over the line from, you know, spitballing to really potential federal crime.

john durham claims that michael sussmann brought backer information about donald trump's campaign, communicating with a kremlin connected became. when susman said he wendt to baker, he wasn't working on behalf of a client but build hillary clinton. the trial will not focus on whether or not a connection between the trump campaign and alpha bank existed. that has never been proven. instead, the focus will be on if sussmann lied and if the alleged live affected the fbi investigation. special counsel john durham, martha, you can see him there, was not in court today. both sides argued over bringing up information about evidence. one side wanted certain information about christopher steele. that salacious dossier about donald trump brought up in court. right now the judge is taking that under advise meant, this trial begins may 16. this happens at the last minute before trial begins. certainly something that we'll watch when that trial begins. martha? >> martha: people shaping where this will go and set parameters in the pretrial motions. thanks. with that, we bring in shannon bream. a fox news at n

. >> 30,573 is the number of times, according to washington post calculations, a donald trump publicly lied during his presidency. the number of times john corman object that these lies were zero. he happily voted for a pathological liar for president, twice. and then he came to the judiciary committee this morning to accuse judge ketanji brown-jackson of lying under oath. and his accusation was about the intellectually vacuous concept of judicial philosophy. senator coren's comments were followed by senator sheldon whitehouse. >> let's not pretend about a judicial philosophy is a mutual thing. it is a tool, and when a judge says here she has one, it's worth looking into. but that doesn't mean yamaha one. >> leading off our discussion tonight is democratic senator sheldon whitehouse, he is a member of the senate judiciary committee. senator, thank you so much for joining us tonight. i've been very eager to talk to us only things about this confirmation including of course the most over used two words in any confirmation hearing. judicial philosophy. let's begin their because you alone

john bolton replied he is not smart enough but had donald trump won in 2022 bolton said in the second term he might have inflikted quote damage that might not be reparable. i asked if the same concerns apply to trump in 2024. he answered with one word. yes. >> i mean, the thing is just like charlie isn't slow about charlie saying who would want to help, multiple advisers said trump wanted to pull out of nato. i can't think of anything better for vladimir putin. having a president that would not allow the commitment until dragged into doing it and fought with our key european allies in the presidency. having somebody like that in the white house at the height of the most significant conflict in europe since world war ii would be a massive strategic victory for vladimir putin. creating chaos in the alinsz to hang together for at least three years and i think it's a much longer potential struggle with russia and frankly in the battle between democracy and autocracy in the world you would have somebody on the wrong side of that battle in the white house if donald trump getting back in for

is the big question now, is how much does this matter to donald trump? his support is crucial for kevin mccarthy's plans to hopefully in his mind be speaker after the midterms. we know he's got enemies within trump's orbit. what should we make of how all this is going to play in the maga universe? >> well, as you know, garrett, donald trump is not a shrinking violet. and yet it's been 18 hours since the rachel maddow interview yesterday with jonathan allen and alexander burns, the reporters who unearthed these tapes. and we have not heard from donald trump himself. he has not put out a statement. that in and of itself is pretty supportive of kevin mccarthy at a time when it's a very tenuous moment at best for mccarthy and his allies. i talked to tom cole, clongsman from oklahoma today. he's one of those close mccarthy allies. he exchanged e-mails with mccarthy this morning about what's going on, said hang in there. what cole said is he thinks this isn't going to be particularly consequential for mccarthy. basically, there are people who are doubters, the

bolton and the testimony impeachment shows that pompeo was holding off donald trump for quite some time in terms of firing me bed in the end both bolton and pompeo caved. so that is t an interesting question so in the end a day his enablers versus a story that the president has enormous power it was your life . >> i think that's a good question and a question that everybody who works in government has to ask themselves at some point because he will not love every policy of the administration. and how will you deal with that? dom not that anybody was pushing. and then try to stay out of the mainstream. and everyone has to find their own path to that. and then to do some good things as well and with the trump administration. >> we can talk about it's very interesting because it has taken on a different light. and then tragically and then that is an interesting set of questions. and what the ukraine scandal had to do with enabling the war in the first place. but this is an incredible trauma you already have so the leadership that you never hear from mike pompeo and in head of the foreign s

to people like donald trump, marjorie taylor greene, and ron dissent who run on platforms that explicitly demonize people or different backgrounds. some of their voters have pushed for this change. i'll happily and braced it. but even republican voters who don't agree with all of the sentiments have learned to overlook or ignore them. we know from history that this type of desensitize asian to hatred can be incredibly dangerous. that's why i would urge all americans to take the results of these kinds of polls seriously. especially the few remaining adults in the gop. the animus rejected in the stat it starts from the top. as hatred and divisiveness have become more mainstream among some republicans, the numbers in this poll seem to suggest many of the gop voters have become numb to it. the extreme fringes scene emboldened. republican leaders understand this. we've heard the tapes of what they say in private. it's time for them to go public and do something about it. i got you. n even smarter smartphone." do you think any of us will look back on our lives and regret the things we didn't bu

trump likely committed felonies with john eastman, and the vice chair of the 1/6 committee, republican liz cheney reading from the statutes of the law she believes is broken, is as close as anyone is going to get to calling donald trump a criminal. >> really, there is not that much evidence that would be needed to go forward with the prosecution at this point. not much additional evidence. i mean, let's look at the facts here. i know that merrick garland is going, prosecuting the former president, cansuccessfully get a conviction? his defense would be i didn't know. i really believed i won the election. if you look at those facts as a prosecutor, his attorney general told him he hadn't won, the guy running the cybersecurity and homeland security told him he had not won. 60 different judges had told him he hadn't won. he knew he had not won. this was a fraud. and i think a jury would be very responsive to this massive amount of evidence. so i really get it. dan goldman is a prosecutor and he did a really good job of just explaining why the doj goes slowly. they're going too slowly. why

if donald trump cannot get his hand-picked candidate, david perdue, to beat brian kemp in that primary for governor next month, that's going to raise real questions about the clout that trump still has in his party. if he can't deliver in that state. because there's no bigger target for donald trump than governor brian kemp in georgia. >> some of us are excited, primary season is upon us. we'll get to answer some of these questions. >>> tracking the trends. the cdc launches a new infectious disease forecasting center. we'll speak to one of the team's leaders, next. it not only cleans, it hydrates my skin. as a dermatologist, i want what's best fofor our skin. with 1/4 moisturizing cream, dove is the #1 bar dermatologists use a at home. the lows of bipolar depression can leave you down and in the dark. but what if you could begin to see the signs of hope all around you? what if you could let in the lyte? discover caplyta. caplyta is a once-daily pill, proven to deliver significant relief from bipolar depression. unlike some medicines that only treat bipolar i, caplyta treats both bipola

he wanted to get to repeal the magnet ski, acta i appeal to donald trump and his advisors to get rid of it. but luckily we had people like john mccain, roger wicker, a ben kardon, who's a leader in the senate, a bipartisan group of senators, and congress, people who said, you know what, we're going to do something here will do something meaningful. and we did. but this would not have happened without bill broader and bringing the store attention. and i just want to say for the record that he's one of the most courageous people that i have ever met to my admire. his tenacity and not keeping up and understanding the that the, that survey magnet skis. a legacy is going to be that where he's with it, we are holding human rights abusers and corrupt officials in russia and around the world accountable for their actions. while thank you congressman jim mcgovern as well. we know you have to run, so we like to thank you for this time with us today. we're going to continue the conversation now with bill. ah, thank. well, right now, i bill i would, i, you know, argue that on vladimir putin's da

trump potentially put in a sort? >> house republicans often follow his lead. >> if trump goes after him, it could create albums for mccarthy. >> he abruptly dropped the bid john dana in 2015. mccarthy appears to lack the votes. washington leaks are strategic. she denies she leaked it and same with the office with steve scalise. a leak could be designed to drive a wedge between resident trump and mccarthy. so far, it has not worked. chad pergram, fox news. arthel: thanks, chad. the most populated county in this nation is bringing back mask mandate. a lot of confusion about when and where masks should be worn. will try to unravel the confusion up next. ♪♪ people in los angeles county once again masking up when they arrive on public transportation. the order is beyond the latest rules are and against the judges ruling that struck down the cdcs nationwide mask mandate. justice department. here's more in los angeles. >> there's a lot of confusion right now, mask wearing was optional for writers in the l.a. county's me

she may have wanted donald trump to win the election over for a legal challenge to succeed, but she is not involved in any of that. john y.: there is a new poll out today from politico that shows a little more than half of those questioned say they believe justice thomas should not participate in election related cases. donalcolm, if he does decide not to recuse himself to participate in these cases, do you think he should explain why, if for no other reason then sort of the public integrity and legitimacy of the court? john m.: if he does recuse, it will be obvious why. it usually is when a justice recuse is himself. it is because they have a family member who has a personal, usually financial stake in the outcome of a case. justices do not typically state why they do not recuse. it is because they believe their impartiality cannot be questioned. ginni thomas has said that clarence is not involved in her political activity, and she does not get her constitutional rights from her husband, and certainly she does not dictate how she should decide legal russians or by legal theories -- le
