2:03 am

2:17 am
take place. explain in layman's terms why this happened. >> it is a total travesty, international trade commission, which is made of four commissioners that are american people. they are appointed to these positions, ruled tariffs were not necessary in order to produce tin plate. the congress department investigated four countries, determined 4 countries are dumping tin plate into the american markets and itc overruled commerce department and said it will be revoked. it is ae travesty and unamerica. it will jeopardize the food industry in this country, it will be a national court issue.
2:18 am
really a sad day and i will do everything i can do to overturn this decision. it is the wrong decision by the government, they are supposed to be looking after america and its governments, not the foreigners. >> carley: what actions can you take to overturn this? >> we will appeal the decision, use our government supporters. senator joe manchin from west virginia and many others have been in our corner and are putting pressure on itc to overturn this decision. we have support in washington, this is not over. there is only three tin mills left in this country, we make food and aerosol cans. it is national security issue. if we go to war, foreigners will control the food supply for our
2:19 am
soldiers. we are off track, the itc ought to worry about america instead of foreigners. it is a total absolute misjustice to this country and we're going to fight to overturn it. i have confidence we'll be successful in the final analysis. >> carley: mark, 900 people worked there, 900 families will be out of a job in april. what will they do? >> not only 900 peep and he will their family, it will affect the school system and tax base. foreign products are dumping product, if you stood on main street, west virginia, you see foreign still coming into our town at enormously high rates. we have to overturn this, it will affect the entire country. we have to fight with
2:20 am
legislature and hopefully put enough pressure on itc to do the right thing, they should support america, not foreign countries. we know how to make good steel work. only 10 steel mills left in the country, only 10 steel mills are left. right now it is our plant, not a total shutdown yet. we will try to avoid that and put america back where it ought to be, supporting american citizens as opposed to supporting foreign countries. we're so far off track in this country, it is unbelievable. we have steel trying to buy u.s. steel, if that happens, the nation's security is in jeopardy. i don't know what the government is doing, they are not looking
2:21 am
after america. we intend to fight until we win, as long as i have breath in my body. we have tremendous support throughout this country. legislators support our issue. we will continue to pressure the government and hopefully they will do the right thing. we're the greatest country in the world, we are off track currently. >> carley: senator joe manchin said this will weaken national security and alex mooney, a republican from west virginia said it is a blow to hard-working west virginia steelworkers. you do have bipartisan support. thank you for joining us. >> please follow this national issue, follow it and we'll continue to do everything we can to correct this injustice. >> carley: thank you so much. okay. turning to this.

2:28 am
were not told about the plans from the start. >> we want same opportunities given to these illegal citizens. >> we're talking about a building that has been sitting. we have enough shelters. every zip code has to come up and meet us first before they start moving here. >> what we're saying is if there is some housing that is available to provide for asylum seekers, then that same housing should be first priority to those who live here. >> the pushback from residents forcing the city to reverse course. >> listen, the complexity of housing new yorkers is so many layers of complexity. i have to house the immediate

2:32 am
everything was strange with the message. it is not something she would do, not at all like her. it was written in a sense i didn't recognize it. i know how she writes and it did not sound like her. >> todd: it sounded like it was translated like a komg puter, what do you mean by that? >> two messages were sent. one message to me written in english and the other message sent to her spanish best friend in madrid in spanish. according to her family it was spanish-speaking and her friend said it looks like it was used with a translator, the words were put together strange and that is just looks very odd.
2:33 am
>> todd: moving on, this overarching behavior, running off with a stranger, not communicating for weeks, is that out of character for anna? >> absolutely, 100%. anna and i are very close. we have spent much time, traveled together, have almost daily contacts. she tells me everything about what she's doing. she spent a lot of time in madrid and went there on december 27th. she came to visit me in austria for a few days in the middle of january and i was supposed to go there in february. we speak often and were talking about our upcoming plans for my visit in madrid and told me she was looking for a new apartment and everything going on. for her to meet a random person
2:34 am
in the street of madrid and go to some house, no. that is not ana. >> todd: she was overin madrid, she lives in fort lauderdale and she is going through a rough divorce. why is it described like that? >> i'm not sure what people mean with rough divorce. i don't know many divorces or separations that are easy. what i know, i don't want to say it was specifically nasty or rough divorce from what i know. again, obviously it is difficult to separate from someone you have been living with for many years, not a decision you make overnight. it is stressful for everyone. >> todd: police in madrid and fort lauderdale are being pretty
2:35 am
tight-lipped about this. the american embassy being tight-lipped, what do you hope to learn from spanish authorities when you speak with them? >> i got a message today, they have no comment in regard to the investigation. what thatten means, i don't know, that is the message i received today. i am hoping i can be more open and discuss findings they have so far and if they have any leads that can lead us to what has happened to ana. >> todd: thank you for coming on and getting the word out, friends like you will help us. you and ana are in our prayers thchl is shocking 5000 police officers injured on the job in new york city alone. >> carley: that number is far too high, our next guest is former nypd lieutenant who was

2:43 am
stupidest -- ever. >> carley: tell us how you really feel. he has made it clear it will not endorse biden and harris this time again. nothing to worry about, that is what kathy hochul is telling businesses in new york after former president trump was ordered to pay $355 million bucks. >> todd: i wonder what the businesses think about this? cheryl casone has more. >> cheryl: good morning, yeah, good hochul making her best attempt to reassure new york business community it is safe to uprate in the state. >> law-abiding new yorkers and business people have nothing to worry about, they are different from donald trump and his behavior. >> cheryl: comments come after the judge ordered president trump to pay a $355 million
2:44 am
penalty for deceiving banks and others, tied to overvaluing real estate. his sons penalized. senator ted cruz said this case was never about business, it was about politics. >> democrats have become radicalized and decided partisan politics matter more than the rule of weapon, they are willing to abuz government power to stay inure po. the judge's decision in new york was an outrage. this was a partisan democrat judge and partisan democrat attorney general. >> cheryl: claiming the verdict is a threat to all businesses. trump is expected to appeal that decision. >> todd: all real estate businesses at the least. even democrats are turning against president ovidio guzman
2:45 am
environmental -- i don't want to call it agenda, it is insanity. >> cheryl: businesses are making money, he wants to stop that because of climate issues. taking aim at president biden for recent decision to limit export of natural gas and calls it shortsighted. >> i don't support what president biden is doing there, it is important for american liquified natural gas to replace natural gas russia was sending to europe. it is important for us to have benefit of selling that natural gas versus other countries like qatar in this world. i believe one of the united states massive strategic strengths is our energy, our clean energy and fossil fuels and i think that is a
2:46 am
short-sighted decision. >> cheryl: he says clean energy in that sound bite. this is as qatar is set to announce lng deals. they will fill expected gap the u.s. is going to leave out there and think about our allies in europe. what kind of export does putin have? energy exports. this is short sided and that comment was true, guys. >> carley: got bad statistics to cover that might not come as surprise. data shows 5300 police officers were attacked on the job, including 1200 officers hurt by suspects in the last three months. next guest issa i lieutenant that was attacked during the

2:48 am
to be dealing with somebody that is dangerous. cops are among the bravest people and are not afraid to fight with criminals, they are afraid to be prosecuted by a progressive d.a. it is a no-win situation, they don't want to be the next youtube star. they are doing the right thing. >> carley: manhattan d.a. alvin bragg downgraded 938 felony cases in the last year, about 60% downgraded to misdemeanors. why would you downgrade a felony? what is impact of that? >> in the criminal justice system, especially new york city, there have been downgraded crimes, it is higher than in the past and not really a surprise.
2:49 am
bragg's day one memo says he will do exactly that. it is progressive agenda and what he and other d.a.s are doing. i want to point out the legislature has not helped in new york either. even if the d.a.s wanted to keep up from the bail reform to the unnecessarily aggressive discovery laws, d.a.'s office couldn't keep up. we are not surprised here. >> carley: it is not a surprise, new york city crime keeps ongoing up, that is a shame. thank you for joining us this morning, have a great day. thank you. >> carley: our favorite public service announcement, we want to see more of you guys, send us a video, where you are from, why you are up early and what you love about the show, e-your video to friends first at

(bridget) with thyroid eye disease i hid from the camera. and i wanted to hide from the world. for years, i thought my t.e.d. was beyond help... but then i asked my doctor about tepezza. (vo) tepezza is the only medicine that treats t.e.d. at the source not just the symptoms. in a clinical study more than 8 out of 10 patients taking tepezza had less eye bulging. tepezza is an infusion and may cause infusion reactions. tell your doctor right away if you experience high blood pressure, fast heartbeat, shortness of breath or muscle pain. before treatment, tell your doctor if you have diabetes, ibd, or are pregnant, or planning to become pregnant. tepezza may raise blood sugar and may worsen ibd. tepezza may cause severe hearing problems which may be permanent.

cory mills is on the florida house committee. thank you for being here. the "new york times" reporting that ourselves antony blinkenen raised the possibility of russian move chinese and counter pars on friday and saturday sidelines of the munich security conference. mr. blinken's message was blunt it would take out not only russian satellite but those in new delhi. action is being taken. but, that said, are you confident that this biden administration is giving this issue both the attention and full action that it warrants? >> well, i think that the, you know, raising of concern for this is certainly warranted. i mean, when you think about the idea of a outer space detonation and what that could do not only would it potentially knock out satellites but also make certain areas uninhabitable for satellites given the radioactive

continuation. so i think we would have to look at things, utilization of the 167 outer space act. i think that we could look at partnering with others to look at this different types of violations. i think it was good raised for concerns. but i don't like the manner in which it was done. i also find the timing of mike turner's release to be a bit questionable given that each time one of these increased threats occur it's around the time that the u.s. house is going to take up an authorization, a reauthorization on things like section 702. or fisa. and so i do think that -- in police work they call it clue on coincidence. it is a severe there the and something we should consider. >> todd: turner taking heat it's all about you guys. why are you talking about it so soon have to wait and see and see how it all plays out. quickly on the treaty. do we trust putin to adhere to a

treaty. >> no. that's why president trump removed us from the idf. my bigger concern the way it was raised and brought up. exact same time that the senate was trying to push a ukraine supplemental and many of us not willing to support another dime to ukraine and want to put america's borders first. this was a way to try to provide cover for them. the reauthorization of section 702. this is the thing shah supposed to be the foreign intelligence surveillance act but abused by the fbi 287,000 times to try spy on americans. in my opinion this is unconstitutional it. should not be reauthorized in the way it's currently fashioned. this is one of the potential leaks was to try to go ahead and enable a pressure chamber to be created by the american people. >> todd: meantime, at least 400 people have been reportedly detained across russia since alexei navalny's death. ends lindsey graham saying we need to make russia a state sponsor of terrorism in response. do you agree with that, congressman?

>> no, i don't. in fact, i don't agree with most of what lindsey graham says. lindsey wants to continue to try warmonger more things with ne-yo conservative approach for ukraine or iran. this is a guy who says hit them hard fight them there i don't think that's necessarily the right response. i will say the political percent cushion of one his opponents, navalny, which we know is very clearly going to be a murder that occurred think is a guy who in 2021 sentenced to 19 years for extremism and then sent to the most highest max security prison right there by the artic circle to mysteriously disappear. political persecution is something that we definitely look at. again, that's going right here at home if you think about it. look at $355 million just levied in new york. i don't know that we can continue to point fingers whenever we are actually utilizing the biden administration political persecution to come after their opponents. >> todd: congressman cory mills, thank you, "fox & friends" begins right now. >> steve: thank you very much, todd. it is 6:00 on thst
