>> john: breaking a short time ago, the head of the house intelligence committee, congressman mike turner, warning of a serious national security
11:02 am
threat. that statement not providing any additional details, though. our own jacqui heinrich reporting the threat has to do with space. all comes ahead of a meeting between the gang of 8 and national security adviser jake sullivan at the white house. sullivan said this moments ago. >> i'm not in position to say anything further today. like i said i look forward to the discussion with him and obviously we will determine how to proceed. but standing here at the podium today i can't share anything further. >> john: that has cast a whole new tone on the afternoon. john roberts in washington. >> aishah: aishah hasnie in for sandra smith. "america reports". right to chad pergram live on capitol hill what you are hearing, chad, what congressmen and women are saying right now. >> this is rather cryptic. mike turner is making documents available to all members about this serious national security threat. national security adviser jake sullivan offered to speak to top
11:03 am
lawmakers tomorrow but is cagey about the threat. >> americans understand that there are a range of threats and challenges in the world that we are dealing with every single day, and those threats and challenges range from terrorism to state actors, and we have to contend with them. we have to contend with them in a way where we ensure the ultimate security of the american people. >> sullivan comes to capitol hill in the next hour to speak to lawmakers about fisa, so this may be part of the conversation, too. fox asked multiple lawmakers about the threat over the past 24 hours but members of the intelligence committee would only say it's serious and not talk about it. tensed up when i asked about. but members can review the information between now and friday. fox is told it's not a threat to congress nor a hack. aishah. >> aishah: chad, we know sometimes members of the intelligence committee and the gang of 8 get these briefings.
11:04 am
do you know if the meeting with jake sullivan tomorrow, was that prescheduled or just recently added and do we expect to hear anything from these members of a the meeting? >> we expected a briefing on fisa to start with, piece of legislation to reform the foreign intelligence surveillance program here, they are trying to move this and jake sullivan was making the case to continue the program, he was supposed to come up and talk anyway. but inevitably sometimes we get members to talk about this, the fact all members can view the document but also points to the fact people are being so closed-lipped about this we might not get anything. i've covered intelligence for a long time, and this is one of the rare times i've run into a big brick wall. >> aishah: ok, chad pergram on the hill. >> john: dan hoffman with us, former cia station chief and fox news contributor.
11:05 am
you were station chief in moscow some time ago. this, according to jacqui heinrich, this threat may have something to do with russia and space. what do you make of the fact that mike turner has jumped ahead of this gang of 8 meeting with the white house to say put the stuff out there, declassify it. everybody needs to be able to see it. >> yeah, i just think it's important to look at the larger picture, and we could certainly speculate about what the intelligence is related to. we have billions of dollars waiting to be approved by the house of representatives to help ukraine in their time of need to carry on this existential fight for their survival and if this shows russia is the enemy we know russia is, led by the kgb and vladimir putin, that would only add to the argument why it's important now to proceed with giving ukraine the money that they need. remember, most of that money is to replenish u.s. stocks so that our coffers are full of the
11:06 am
weapons that we need. >> aishah: one more for you, dan, before we let you go. obviously there is going to be a big briefing on capitol hill tomorrow, the senate is out, you mentioned the house is in and they have this big foreign aid package on their laps to decide what to do in the next couple of days here. do you think that at this point, because this is becoming so ominous now, and everybody is covering it now, and people are suspecting this or that and whether it has to do with russia or iran or north korea, do you think at this point the white house, or even members of congress should share some information tomorrow after this briefing with the american people just to sort of calm fears? >> yeah, i think representative turner is doing the administration a big favor here by pressing for just that. this is a bad time to be appeasing vladimir putin. i think again, that's the larger point that he wants to make. now, jake sullivan was probably being super extra cautious here
11:07 am
because this is intelligence that he may not have approval to declassify at this point. but representative turner, who feels the pulse of our nation on capitol hill, is pushing ahead and in my view, at least, rightly so. you can declassify enough of this without sources and methods in all likelihood we don't jeopardize our own national security but frame the dialogue and debate over how we relate to russia as an adversary. >> john: appreciate it. retired lieutenant governor keith kellogg, former national security adviser to mike pence and fox news contributor. we have been talking offline what the threat may be, in july of 2020, congressman turner put out a press release highly critical of a russian test of a space-based anti-satellite weapon. later that year they tested a land-based anti-satellite weapon and vladimir putin has said they
11:08 am
are going to deploy the new sarmat icbm by august. putin claiming it can defeat any type of ground intervention anywhere in the world. could we be looking at any of those? all of those, or none of those? >> yeah, john, thanks for having me. look, by the way, what dan just said a minute ago is so on the mark. and i think you have to look at all of it. it's all speculation right now. but if this is very, very serious, the president can declassify today anything they are talking about, and dan kind of mentioned about scrubbing around the edges so you don't give up sources and methods and techniques and procedures, so to release that to the american people. i know it's not a nuclear weapon in space, that's a clear violation of the 1967 outer space treaty everybody has agreed to, so it's not a weapon in space. but you could have anti-satellite capabilities, laser capabilities, i don't
11:09 am
think it's a ground-based, and they are releasing the old icbms, in all probability we would accept a first strike and that's the reason why it's so important to have a nuclear triad. i guess what i'm saying, we talked offline, i shrugged my shoulders, it's the russians again, here we go again. when you have an iranian breakout, then the whole dynamic changes. but the russians right now, it's ok, dan may have been right, formenting the problem a little more, clutching our pearls but look, if it's really that serious, jake sullivan, national security adviser to the president, go to the president and say mr. president, you can declassify that right now, reassure the american people everything is ok and do that. >> aishah: general, i want to sort of put together a timeline here and try to figure out how quickly russia could perhaps develop a weapon like this because in 2020, and john found this press release he just
11:10 am
talked about from mike turner, in 2020, mike turner was condemning evidence that russia had conducted a nondestructive test of a space-based anti-satellite weapon. that was july 15th of 2020. so in four years now is it -- does it make sense that they would possibly have a weapon now? >> yeah, that's -- what i would tell this to john, classifications levels above god and i don't want to go there at all. if it's out there, fine, declassify it. if there are other things to worry about i think are more important right now, is that capability around, is it in development, do other nations have it, i think you could probably go to the affirmative. it's the only things we really don't know about. hypersonics, did they develop with hypersonic, what kind of space-based laser are they
11:11 am
using, that that i think should be leveled with the american people and just tell them. >> john: general, let me ask you about something specific dan hoffman said. he thinks it could be all about ukraine, maybe chairman turner is upping the ante here about what will happen if putin is able to prevail in ukraine. he's a big supporter of the funding bill with the $60 billion in equipment for ukraine. could it be wrapped around that as dan was suggesting? >> you know, honestly, john, living in this town the answer is yes. kind of the way they operate, really frustrating and that's the reason why it's very important for the president of the united states to be able to declassify and say this is what we are talking about. because those suspicions are going to grow. whether you like it or not, that's the way washington d.c. works. level with the american people. this is the threat we are facing rather than just speculation and it's appropriate for the president do that and let's see what happens. right now we are in the
11:12 am
speculating mode and i would not want to go down that path too far until we really hear what it is and the reasons behind it. >> aishah: we don't need undue fears across the country right now. thank you, appreciate it. >> john: as the war in ukraine enters the third year, reuters is reporting that russian forces are beginning to get the upper hand on the battlefield. ukraine is burning through military supplies and the white house still not offering a clear path to victory. >> aishah: nearly two years into the war, the united states has forked over more than $113 billion in aid, and another 95 billion debated right now. that's facing an uncertain future in the house. >> we will come to a quick conclusion when they send unlimited amounts of money. >> at this point we are talking about an emergency. >> we are at an existential moment for global democracy. >> printing more money to send
11:13 am
it overseas to fund a war the administration cannot tell us a mission for. >> john: update on the fighting in ukraine in a moment. >> aishah: first, live to jennifer griffin at the pentagon. what's in the $95 billion aid package? >> well, aishah, what gets lost in the discussion is that this supplemental includes much more than just ukraine military aid. it focuses a lot on missile defense and money to resupply the missiles being fired by the u.s. navy to stop iranian proxies from sinking ships in the red sea and targeting bases in iraq and syria. $2 billion to resupply against proxy attacks, $4 billion for the iran dome and david sling, 1.2 billion for the beam system to counter short range rocket threats, and could use for bases
11:14 am
across the middle east, and $2 billion for taiwan and indo-pacific allies, and $3.3 billion to get the submarine industrial base on course for the agreement with australia and britain. also needed to counter china. $60 billion for ukraine includes $48.4 billion for weapons and about $11 billion in economic aid. the military aid for ukraine includes $19.9 billion for the pentagon to backfill weapons sent to ukraine from u.s. stockpiles so the $20 billion in essence buys new weapons for the u.s. military. $1.6 billion so ukraine can also buy directly from u.s. defense contractors, $14.8 billion for military training and intelligence sharing with ukraine, and $8 million for the dod inspector general to oversee
11:15 am
all of the u.s. assistance to ukraine. secretary austin addressing the ukraine contact group in brussels added the moral argument. >> for people of principle and governments of conscience, standing aside while ukraine for it's existence is not an option. ukraine will not surrender and neither will we. >> what this is not is the u.s. cutting a check for $60 billion to ukraine. a study by aei shows 90% of the $68 billion the u.s. has already sent to ukraine supports weapons factories here in the u.s. abrahams tanks and striker vehicles are made in ohio, 117 weapons production lines in 31 u.s. states producing weapons for ukraine, which means u.s. jobs, of course. javelin anti-tank missiles are built in troy alabama and
11:16 am
tucson, howitzers are built in minneapolis, switch blade drones in mississippi and pennsylvania, i could go on and on. >> aishah: important breakdown for us, thank you, jennifer. >> john: what does the current situation in ukraine look like? greg palkot has an update from london. what are officials saying about the state of play now? >> john, they do not like to use this word but some are summing it up this way, stalemate, about to hit the two-year mark, both sides are pounding away on a long front line. three ukrainian civilians were killed including a child, when russian missiles hit an apartment building in the eastern part of the country. they say vladimir putin is offering a ceasefire to u.s. contacts. reportedly rebuffed as the u.s. is firm it does not negotiate for ukraine and a nonstarter
11:17 am
anyway, moscow wanted to hold on to all of its territorial gains, that's something that kyiv flatly refuses. ukraine does admit, though, it is on the defense as russia tries to make new in-roads forcing ukraine to hit behind enemy lines. a russian landing ship full of crew and ammunition was blown up and sunk off the crimean peninsula. no confirmation from russia but ukraine has been effective in targeting russian naval vessels one manned marine drones. outmanned and out gunned, ukraine has to out think its russian foe. >> john: greg palkot with the update from london. >> aishah: two big issues with the presidential race, age and the doj. >> john: majority of americans think he got special treatment

>> john: all right, an update and after congressman mike turner, chairman of the house intelligence committee said there is an urgent national security matter that is facing the united states and is calling on the white house to declassify at least the core of the information about that, everybody is jumping in now and saying oh, yeah, we knew about that. speaker of the house mike johnson said he knew about it a month ago, reached out with a meeting with the president, now scheduled for tomorrow, intel chair and the vice in the senate, warner and rubio, saying we knew about it, too, continuing to monitor it. a lot of people knew about it. nobody is saying anything about it because it is highly classified, aishah, but it's
11:23 am
just -- it's interesting to see now that turner has put it out there, everybody is saying oh, yeah, we got it, yep. >> aishah: now that everybody is jumping in, will the white house come out with a statement or any more information than what jake sullivan said today, not a lot, if they are able to give the american people anything more tomorrow after this gang of 8 meeting, hopefully we get some answers because now the whole world is talking about this. >> john: sound from the house speaker what he said about this. >> i do have a statement and i'm going to be very precise and i'm not going to take questions, but last month i sent a letter to the white house requesting a meeting with the president to discuss a serious national security issue that is classified. in response to that letter a meeting is now scheduled tomorrow on this matter here at the capitol with the gang of 4 and with the president's national security adviser jake sullivan. i will press the administration to take appropriate action and everybody can be comforted by
11:24 am
that. i saw chairman turner's statement on the issue and no need for public alarm. we are going to work together to address this matter as we do all sensitive matters that are classified. and beyond that, i'm not at liberty to disclose classified information and really can't say much more. we want to assure everyone steady hands are at the wheel, we are working on it and no need for alarm. >> john: so the intrigue deepers here. steady hands on the wheel, they are working on it, no cause for alarm. what is it? >> aishah: exactly, now we have to know because apparently everybody else knew except for us, obviously it's classified information but sounds like no need to panic or alarm just yet. hopefully we find out in the next 24 hours. >> john: they've got it, it's under control. so, don't panic. we'll keep working to try to bring you what it is. now this. >> if they say that you are too old, mr. president, in december you told me that you believe there are many other democrats who could defeat donald trump. so, why does it have to be you now? what is your answer?
11:25 am
>> i'm the most qualified person in this country to be president of the united states and finish the job i started. >> john: president biden remaining defiant for his mental fitness for office as november creeps ever closer. poll after poll shows americans doubt his ability to carry out the job another four years. byron york, all right, so following on that abc news poll in which 86% of response ever respondents said biden is too old to run for another term, a reuters ipsos poll, is he too old or not the mental fitness to be president, 78% of people said yes, 71% of democrats. concern is ballooning on this. >> absolutely. robert hur report really just opened up this issue which was a pretty big issue even before
11:26 am
that. and so everybody has an opinion about this, they watch the president and if they have watched him for a few years they have watched him slow down before their eyes and so this is an issue. the problem for the white house is, it's an issue that doesn't get better. we have seen reports about democrats debating and maybe pointing fingers at each other for not handling this issue well enough. it's not an issue you can really handle. some people say well, the president should use humor to defuse. you know what reagan was sworn in as president, 69 years old, 12 years younger than the president. when he was sworn in for the second term, he was eight years younger than the president. more room to joke about it. >> john: and biden tries to joke about it and applause for those around, people are saying not
11:27 am
sure that's the way to go on this. the reuters ipsos poll had something troubling for biden, majority of americans believe he got special treatment from the doj on this classified documents case, look at that, 53% say he got special treatment just because he is the president. that's not a good look, byron. >> yeah, and a lot of people also believe on the flip side that donald trump has been singled out for unfair treatment so put these two things together. on the president, though, we should say here that there actually is a little bit of special treatment that goes with being president of the united states because it's long standing justice department policy that the president cannot be indicted while he is president. obviously with trump we have seen an ex-president get indicted over and over. but the sitting president cannot be indicted, so i'm not sure a lot of people thought of that
11:28 am
when they saw the hur report, which basically said that the president mishandled classified documents, which of course is the underlying crime that trump is accused of. >> john: i want to ask you about one other issue, trump's comments on nato as articulated in a rally recently that the comments came from years ago. what trump said. >> one of the presidents of a big country stood up and said well, sir, if we don't pay, and we are attacked by russia, will you protect us? no, i would not protect you in fact i would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. you got to pay. >> john: so trump was on the war path at that point against nato laws, secretary general said earlier the criticism we hear is not about nato, but nato allies and not spending enough so that is a valid point. so he said maybe he did not agree with the way trump said it but a valid point and left wing media is losing its mind over
11:29 am
what he said. >> well, we have seen one of these occasional trump flip-outs over this nato issue and with stoltenberg, a few days after before trump made his comments, he did an interview and he talked about trump's policy for nato when trump was president, which was to pressure them, the countries to spend more money in their own defense and stoltenberg said well, they did start spending more money in their own defense. added 450 billion euro to their own defense and now that has strengthened the alliance. it has strengthened relations between the members of the alliance because they are stronger and they are contributing more to their own defense. so, if you listen to the secretary general of nato, he seems to be saying that the net effect of trump's policy as president was to strengthen nato. >> john: i remember back at the time that was all going on, 2017, 2018, everybody is
11:30 am
criticizing trump for being such a bully and stoltenberg is going wow, the cash is just flowing in, i love this. byron, great to see you. >> yeah, thank you, john. >> aishah: more violence hitting right here in our nation's capital. three officers shot today and the suspect is still barricaded inside his house. the situation has been going on for a few hours now. we are live on the scene next. >> john: plus some republican senators say some key details missing from the biden special counsel report. they want the full transcripts released. but, would that be a good idea? we will ask our fox news legal editor kerri urbahn coming up next. lord, you know what's on our hearts. you know where we struggle. you know where we need to be pushed. help us give it all to you. the good, the bad. help us turn to you in everything we do. amen.

11:35 am
from the scene. what do you see, what do you hear? >> well, aishah, this began at 7:30 this morning, about seven hours ago, when three d.c. police officers went to serve a search warrant for animal cruelty. they were met by gunfire. three officers were shot, taken to local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and the police chief pamela smith just spoke to us, said they are in good spirits. the mayor visited a fourth officer was also injured. and more from the press conference. >> our officers attempted to make contact with the individual inside the residence to execute the arrest warrant. the individual refused to come outside. as officers attempted to gain entry, the individual fired upon them. a barricade has been declared in this particular incident. officers were struck by gunfire, three officer to be exact. all three transported with non-life-threatening injuries to local area hospitals.
11:36 am
>> last year d.c. saw 35% spike in homicides, 25-year high, only about half those murder cases were solved. carjackings have doubled in the past year. u.s. attorney declined to prosecute 67% of those arrested. and also the d.c. police department is 500 cops short. they lost 1400 due to the summer protests in 2020 and as you can see behind me, the local charter schools have been evacuated early, they were on lockdown, this school and another school as the ongoing situation continues and the shooter remains barricaded. we are told there are ten pit bulls inside his house, aishah. >> aishah: stunning. thank you for the live report. >> john: house republicans are demanding the justice department release transcripts of robert hur's interviews with president biden. kerri kupec urbahn says this is a terrible idea. our fox news legal editor, and
11:37 am
former counsels with attorney general bill barr. why do you think it's a terrible idea? >> i don't understand why it's necessary, i really don't. it strikes me as piling on. it was a devastating report for president biden. a report that just confirms what unfortunately we can already see with our own eyes which is sad but reality, and i don't know what's to gain from the transcript and what i'm more concerned about as a former justice employee as you mentioned is the precedent it would set. i think that it would potentially discourage candor in interviews with either targets or witnesses and the candor is very important. if you are doing an investigation you want someone to answer as thoroughly and honestly as possible and if someone is worried that whatever they say is going to be extracted for sound bites by whether it's republicans or democrats or pundits on tv, i don't think you are going to get that information that you need. and i think it's going to open the door for pressure on doj to release transcripts of all kinds of investigations and prosecutions, which i think
11:38 am
could most definitely impact the integrity of those investigations. >> so transcripts and audio aside, the report, though, you also feel like should not have been put together and released. what about people who are saying without the report we would have never known what was going on with the president's, you know, mental fitness and why he's not being indicted or charged. >> so my position on that, there's a reason that people don't like special counsel, not all people, but some people and i've had the conversation with former colleagues of mine, the department of justice is one of the rare institutions that's supposed to be black and white. you are guilty or not guilty and this report business is in between. and it's more like a congress thing or political matter and the idea that the justice department can find someone not guilty of something but then can trash them or ruin their reputation or administration, we saw that with bob mueller and donald trump, i think we are
11:39 am
seeing that again now, is not reflective of this concept of either you are guilty or not and if people want to comment on what happened, that's up to the pundits in congress. it's just not a doj thing. >> john: the transcript release, "wall street journal" editorial board on the flip side of this issue, they say let's see the biden-hur interview transcript. did he offer detail or was he an old man. it does not implicate the contents of his classified files. dispute is how well mr. biden performed in answering questions under pressure which the public rarely gets to see. so your fitness for president is your ability to perform under pressure. biden's out there, and everybody else around biden is out there saying he's doing great, thought it was funny when jon stewart said do you have any video of him being great or is it just the video we see? so, why not for public consumption put the transcript
11:40 am
out there. >> what are we gaining from it. >> john: better understanding how he is cognitively and who you want to vote for. >> if joe biden wants the transcript out, i would have less of an issue because if he does feel the justice department was unfair towards him, which is very possible, then fine. but i think it should come from the person who sat for this interview understanding that it was a confidential interview of sorts and obviously he was going to draw conclusions, the special counsel from what he said. >> john: if hur testifies ance says all that, the democrats say he's lying. >> it's another tool at congress's disposal. they can call hur to testify, to have a published report one flattering information i don't think is reflective of guilty or not guilty system. >> aishah: you are saying it's a
11:41 am
tennis match back and forth. >> it becomes a political tool. and to be fair to special counsel, it's in the regulation. they are required to write a report and submit to congress. my suggestion would be that the regs are changed and the report ask it's removed and if they want to call in a special counsel to testify about findings and exercise congressional oversight function, go for it. >> john: if you want to go for it, go back to the independent counsel statute. >> aishah: boston is out of room for migrants. we are hearing groups are arriving at hotels in the suburbs. our next guest says the state is a magnet for illegal immigrants and he's making big pushes to make some changes. rowd noises] [dramaticlly beat] introducing, ned's plaque psoriasis. he thinks his flaky red patches are all people see. otezla is the #1 prescribed pill to treat plaque psoriasis. ned?

>> aishah: massachusetts finally moved migrants who were sleeping at logan airport to shelters, angering city taxpayers who saw the community centers taken over and now hearing migrants are moving out to the suburbs. paul thanks for joining us. you conducted some polls of your very own to figure out what people, what the taxpayer in massachusetts thinks about all of this, and there were a couple different questions you asked and it sounds like people are very, very angry no matter what their political persuasion is at the way this is currently being handled. what did you learn? >> we absolutely did, and thank you for having me on and thank you for taking interest in what's going on in massachusetts. in massachusetts, anyone that steps foot here, for 20 years or 20 minutes, you do have some benefits and one of them is called a right to shelter. we are the only state in the entire country that has this, i think new york city has it as well, but we are the only state and what that basically means is
11:47 am
taxpayers are mandated to pay for your shelter. and as a result, the migrant situation is exploding in our state. we are becoming a destination for migrants sent to. and as a result, our shelter system, welfare system is stretched beyond thin and it's becoming pretty much a disaster. the state is acknowledging they are spending about a billion dollars a year, that's about $3 million a day. if you think about your town and city, that's a lot of money that can go far, and just going for the migrant situation. but our poll went through a lot of questions dealing with the migrant situation. we found across republicans, democrats, and independents, people have some apprehension about how the governor is handling the migrant situation. they don't blame the massachusetts legislature, the governor, they blame mostly washington, but the answers for how we are dealing with this is not -- and the government went
11:48 am
to far to ask the public to take migrants that their own homes. all three parties were against it. 80% said they do not support that. a big problem for the government. high in polling. the problem for the governor -- >> aishah: i hate to cut you off, it is startling the 80% number. and a new poll that shows immigration and border security was the second most important issue on voters minds, you have a big primary coming up, democrats are trying to basically attach on to this immigration border issue and they are trying to say that it's the republicans' fault for not passing this border deal here in washington, you mentioned washington here. but from what you are hearing on the ground, what are people telling you about who is to blame for this? >> we definitely hear it's the
11:49 am
president. i mean, everyone understands the southern border is wide open. but they also, i think are not satisfied with how the state is handling the problem. too much money is getting thrown at the problem and not enough reforms are being added, that's the big component, people are pretty compassionate to help the vulnerable in society. but it's unsustainable in the future and our poll asked that question, do you think the state can continue to handle this migrant crisis the way it is, and the answer was about 80%, no, and that's troubling if you are running the state we can't handle it. >> aishah: paul, thank you so much for joining us and giving us the insight. we appreciate it. best of luck. >> john: well, today is the day to show that special someone just how much you care by having chatgpt write a lovely love note. you better be ready for some sticker shock, though. that's coming up next.
