facebook.com/thekellyfile. like our page, share a story and leave a comment telling us what you think about the controversy. thanks for watching. i'm shannon bream. this is "the kelly file." welcome to "hannity." tonight a huge announcement and it relates to the 2016 presidential race. that is coming up in a moment. but first, also tonight right here on "hannity". >> america's mayor. >> tonight. >> mr. president wake up! >> rudy giuliani rips into president obama now presidential candidates are asked to weigh-in. we've got a full report tonight on "hannity." >> i think there's no doubt that the appearances are awkward at best. >> also is the left turning on hillary over the clinton foundation accepting money from foreign donors? >> powerful interests have tried to capture washington and rig the system. >> john legend using his oscar

win to make a comment about race relations in america. we have andrea tantaros and jessica talk about the most talked about moments. and a somali terror group with links to al qaeda issues a chilling warning we've got to pay attention to. >> i'm not telling people to not go to the mall. i think there needs to be an awareness. >> "hannity" starts right here right now. welcome to" hannity." the controversy surrounding former mayor rudy giuliani tonight surrounding comments he made involving president obama's love of his country. entitled my bluntness overshadowed my message. he wrote "my intended focus really was the effect his words and his actions have on the morale, the effect on the country." chief ed henry, they're not

liking this very much are they? >> no. they first try today ridicule mayor giuliani but saying he tried this out in the 2008 presidential campaign. then you remember josh earnest on friday saying we feel more sorry for him. he's lost his standing. now i think what you see with that op-ed from rudy giuliani is he's trying to get this off the personal and more on the substantive rather than allowing the white house democrats to make it like this has become gutter politics. and i saw the same thing play out today when the governors were here, republican and democrat governors were here, bobby jindal one of them. when he was asked by reporters about this whole controversy, he said on one hand he thinks the mayor should have used different words. but then he went onto attack the president and how he's handling the threat from isis saying at one point bobby jindal said the president has disqualified himself as commander in chief by, a, not calling out islamic terror, and, b, taking ground

troops initially off the table to actually fight that threat. so what you see there is some republicans like bobby jindal saying rather than making this personal about the president, they want to make it about pollty. >> what's interesting to me, and maybe i can get your perspective on this, it seems to open old wounds about the president's radical associations reverend wright, 20 years, he was like family to me. the speeches, sitting on boards with bill ayers or father flager. and then dovetails into the fact he can't say radical islam. and then the issue of iran and this potentially could be the worst deal for our closest ally in that region. and netanyahu. >> sure. i mean, sean, the goal post on that iranian deal continue to move. first no centrifuges and then some and more and more and more. appears the white house is so eager to get a deal for the

president's legacy that they might be giving in here at the end. and that's something that's going to be scrutinized very closely. again, that's on policy. i think you're right on one hand. look, the white house doesn't want to talk about any of those old issues, but on the other hand when i talk to some of the president's senior advisers they refer to this as the clown car. if presidential republican candidates want to go down this road they've seen conservatives go down before the white house believes, they may be wrong, but it could backfire. that's for the republicans to figure out. >> in light of him not saying radical islam and light of a bad iranian deal, i think it gains more legitimacy than perhaps before. ed henry at the white house. good to see you. and rudy giuliani's strong criticism of the commander in chief is nothing new. here's what he said about president obama and his policies earlier this month. >> doesn't take a genius to figure out the cause for which he was murdering. he told us. allah akbar. but the president of the united

states doesn't see the connection. just the other day he called the slaughter of those jewish people in france a random act. mr. president, wake up! come off the golf course! come back on earth! iran has probably been responsible for more american deaths than any singular terrorist group it is undisputably the largest supporter of terrorism in the world. we will never forget the american hostages that were held by the iranians. it seems to me president obama has forgotten it. i haven't forgotten it. i remember every day of it! >> here with reaction democratic strategist brian benjamin. i didn't hear one democrat criticize barack obama when he said george bush is unpatriotic. do you remember that? >> i remember that. yeah. do you know what's so crazy watch giuliani be so angry.

>> i don't see anger. i see passion. you know why i see passion -- >> i don't know. >> do you think we're at war with radical islamist? >> i think we're at war with radical extremists. >> okay. in the name of allah? >> well, i don't believe -- islam is a religion of peace. >> at ft. hood was that workplace violence? >> well -- >> was ft. hood shouting allah akbar, is that terrorism? >> it is terrorism. >> so radical islamic terrorists don't exist? >> i'm saying radical extremists exist. and what they're doing today islamic faith is wrong. >> let me go to paul. you wrote a great piece. >> thank you. >> about frank marshal davis. all of a sudden it's now opened up these old stories about obama. who would sit in reverend wright's home, gd america the sunday after 9/11 america's chicken came home to roost. who would be friends with

unrepentant terrorist like bill ayers, bernadine dohrn -- who is this guy frank marshall davis; who is this akhorn -- >> that's rudy's point. you need to go back to the mentors in our president's upbringing. he said over the weekend we have a president here, an individual, barack obama, who was literally influenced by literal communists who he was introduced to when he was 9 years old. and rudy has it exactly right. i mean i wrote a 400-page book on the guy. i've studied it. i know exactly what he's saying. he did frank marshall davis who barack obama knew from the time he was 9 years old throughout all the 1970s until he went off to college was a literal. and i mean literal. you can't say this about too many people a literal card carrying member of the communist

party. i mean this guy was so bad he was placed on the security index by the federal government. he was listed by the democratic senate in the report called scope of soviet activity inside the united states. and so -- >> let me -- >> one other thing. >> i put together a montage of obama's buddies, about obama's friends, about radical views and radical things they've said. because i think it's relevant now. watch. >> no, no no! not god bless america! god -- america! america's chickens are coming home to roost. >> in terms of the weather underground, which i co-founded, yes, we did some extreme things. what we did was slightly off the tracks, there's no question. and it's something lots of people have found despicable. >> and then out of nowhere came him, barack obama. and said, oh where did you come

from! i'm white! i'm entitled! there's a black man stealing my show! >> no justice! >> no peace! >> would you go to jeremiah wright's church for 20 years? i'm asking -- >> sean. >> no answer the question. would you go to his church for 20 years? >> i don't know. i don't live in chicago. i don't know. >> would you hang out -- this is a guy -- wait a minute. this is a guy the sunday after 9/11 said america's chickens have come home to roost. >> what does that have to do with -- obama loves his country. said it multiple times. >> answer my question. would you go to his church? >> i probably would not. >> would you be friends with bill ayers? >> that's -- >> no. answer. it's relevant. >> the answer's i don't know. >> you could potentially be friend with a domestic terrorist -- >> has nothing to do with him being a good president. >> paul. >> that's dragging everybody else down. i mean, it doesn't hurt to say

these are bad things. i don't know why you can't admit that. we have a president who was influenced by a very radical people. this really is unprecedented. i mean you can't find individuals like this in the background of jimmy carter, of bill clinton of any of the bushes, ronald reagan this is really unusual. and it helps -- why this president is so far to the left. it doesn't mean he's a closet card carrying communist or -- >> but these were his friends. >> look at the economy right now. >> oh, come on. >> 50 million americans in poverty. >> yeah. >> let me go to this -- this is some of the things obama said that rudy was referring to. listen. >> we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the united states of america. america like every other nation has made mistakes and has its flaws. in america there's a failure to appreciate europe's leading role in the world. there have been times where

america's shown arrogance. struggle for women's equality continues in many aspects of american life. there's a long history in this country of african-americans and latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately. that's just a fact. i realize that america's critics will be quick to point out that at times we too have failed to live up to our ideals. and america has plenty of problems within its own borders. this is true. so, yes, we have our own racial and ethnic tensions. our most costly mistakes came not from our restraint but from our willingness to rush into military ventures. in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 we did some things that were wrong. we tortured some folks. we did some things that were contrary to our values. >> final comments. constant lecturing, constant apologizing for america. that's rudy's point. >> can i --

>> go ahead. >> parents criticize their children, they love their children. obama has said in 2004 nowhere else on earth could his story be possible -- [ overlapping speakers ] you're talking about the president. 2008, he loves the country. he's been saying he loves this country and that's why american people elected him twice. >> paul. >> if you love the country, why do you want to fundamentally transform it? i mean that is a very radical statement. and that's very unusual. and all his unusual background helps explain these things. worth looking into. >> thank you. good piece you have, paul. thanks. coming up the oscars. john legend's acceptance speech raised a ton of eyebrows last night after he said "we live in the most incarcerated country in the world." really? we'll debate those remarks. richard fowler, niger and later another political speech at the oscars as actress patricia arquette demands equal pay for women. our all-female panel will

welcome back to "hannity." the 87th academy awards last night, but for some of those attending celebrating movies for the year wasn't enough. musician john legend alongside rapper common decided to make things all political. >> we say "selma" is now because the struggle for justice is right now. we know that the voting rights, the act va fought for 50 years ago is being compromised right now in this country today. we know that right now the struggle for freedom and justice is real.

we live in the most incarcerated country in the world. there are more black men under correctional control today than were under slavery in 1850. >> joining me now democratic strategist richard fowler and executive director teaparty.net niger, do you agree what he's saying? the voting rights act compromised today, is that because we ask people to identify themselves just like you need identity and a picture id to get into the democratic national convention? mr. fowler? >> hi, sean. thanks for having me. >> you know -- you know to get into the dnc you need a picture id, right? >> that's not true. i didn't -- >> oh, right -- >> i didn't need a picture id. i had a delegate. [ overlapping speakers ] >> naacp convention needed an id to get in there. >> didn't need an id for that either. >> for houston you did.

>> in las vegas i didn't need an id. >> apparently you're so loved you don't need id you walk in and play the celebrity card and you walk right through gate. i don't know that's for most people. >> come on, you don't love me? >> no, i needed an id to get in. and on top of that it was very difficult to get in. but the point here is why -- how do you equate the voting rights act with showing an id to get to vote so we can keep honesty and integrity in our elections? how do you make that? john legend is a musician but doesn't know anything about politics. >> well, i think he's saying a great deal here. one, the voting rights act is now currently tied up in the united states congress and senate -- or in the united states congress generally speaking. and this is the first time in american history we do not have bipartisan support in passing the voting rights act. you have to ask yourself the question, why is it that this congress refuses to pass the voting rights act and protect no matter where you are that one man gets one vote.

millions of americans are disenfranchised from the voting process whether it be because closed precincts down in their community, voter suppression laws, limited early voting -- >> that's not cite the law. >> that should be easy, sean. >> we need integrity in our voting system too. and people -- i find this amazing. [ overlapping speakers ] he literally -- he brought up ferguson. that's why we put our hands up, he said in his rap. i'm listening to him thinking okay. and john legend talking about people in jail in america. and occasionally we make mistakes. but i have a message about ferguson, don't rob stores, don't intimidate clerks don't fight cops for their guns and don't charge at police officers like the witnesses testified to. >> as you know sean dr. alvita king, good friend of yours and mine, went to ferguson met with a variety of folks within the community. and what came out of there with

is that our message to young folk in general and to young black folk in particular is not hands up don't shoot. but it's hands -- pants up don't loot if you will. our country's going through the greatest social revolution in the -- relatively peaceful civil rights revolution of which -- my other organization very much part of. >> your father was on the front lines of that. >> absolutely. these entertainers, you know they want to do the right thing. but they're conflating issues. and we can have legitimate debate on all these issues of you know, police -- >> hold up a second, richard. we can have legitimate debate on all these issues, but to conflate with what's going on today with what our ancestors had to go through in the 1950s and '60s is absurd -- >> why are we hear about black-on-black crime we hear about the incarceration rate. what's your answer to that? >> look there's legitimate

debates, even within the conservative movement, are abilityin incarceration. but we also have to ask the tough questions the hard questions which is what impact does culture and subcultures within communities of color have on crime? >> i will tell you something i've been saying -- not for last night but decades -- richard, richard, we've got to be honest -- >> so let's be honest. let's talk about income equality. let's talk about poverty. let's talk about food and security. let's talk about the real issues. you want to make this about looting and hands up, pants up. that's an insult to all the individuals out there -- >> no, it's not. >> -- income inequality and african-american men -- it's killing season because of the stand your ground law.

>> let me ask you this. in ferguson eyewitnesses testified. we saw the video. he robbed a store. he intimidated a clerk. witnesses said he fought a cop for his gun. and then he charged at a police officer. and, you know common mentions that in his rap. isn't the answer i don't care isn't the answer, black, white, hispanic isn't the answer don't act that way? can you say it? i want to hear it. it's not a hard question, yes or no. >> in the song glory common talks about hands up don't shoot because that is a rally cry for millions of americans. >> that came directly out of ferguson ferguson. >> i've been to ferguson nonpeaceful resistance -- >> should we teach children -- >> you're not finishing -- >> whether or not he -- >> whether or not? he threw them into a potato chip

rack. and the eyewitnesses testified he fought for the gun and charged the cop. let me finish. you can't say to all young people, you don't have enough intellectual honesty to say, kids, don't act that way. if you act that way, you're risking your own life. >> it goes beyond that. >> let me hear it. you haven't said that yet. >> you're looking at one morsel of a larger picture. >> it's a big morsel richard. it's a huge morsel. >> niger -- >> you want those kids to succeed in society -- [ overlapping speakers ] >> richard let him talk. >> richard, there's a crisis, you and i are both -- we have a crisis with young black men. you would say it's a question of -- >> richard, let him talk. >> i would say it is also a question of incarceration.

but we have to look at the flipside of the coin which is negative social pathologies within the community. and you and i as black men intelligent black men, have a responsibility to talk truth to power to our community even -- >> absolutely correct. let's not make it what it's not about. >> and thank you both. coming up, we have a major announcement about this show and the 2016 presidential race. plus, another moment from last night's academy awards everyone's talking about. patricia arquette demanding wage equality for women during her acceptance speech. our female panel is going to weigh-in. i wonder what obama pays women? and hillary clinton. and later shoppers at the mall of america are warned to be extra vigilant after the terrorist group al shabaab issues a threat. how concerned should you be? bo deitl and others coming up straight ahead. s but aleve can last 12 hours. and aleve is proven to work better on pain than tylenol arthritis. so why am i still thinking about this? how are ya? good. aleve. proven better on pain.

about moments in last night's academy awards actress patricia arquette used her acceptance speech to demand equal pay for women in the workplace. watch this. >> to every woman who gave birth, to every taxpayer and citizen of this nation we have fought for everybody else's equal rights. it's our time to have wage equality once and for all. and equal rights for women in the united states of america! >> didn't take long before president obama's senior adviser valerie jarrett gave her glowing approval when she tweeted "congrats patty arquette, thanks for using your speech to advocate equal pay and for understanding when women succeed america succeeds. someone might want to show valerie jarrett article entitled male-female pay gap remains entrenched at the white house

joining us democratic pollster and strategist jessica and great andrea tantaros co-host of outnumbered and "the five." very simple. let's go to anita dunn, remember anita dunn? she said former communications drekts tor said looking back this place would be in court for a hostile workplace because it actually fits all the classic legal requirements for genuinely being hostile workplace for women. do you know what the white house on average pays women compared to men? >> no but i think you're going to tell me. >> i'm going to tell you. 73 cents on the dollar. >> so less than -- >> obama's white house. how do you answer that? it's a bunch of hypocrisy. >> i don't think there's an answer for that beyond the fact that the president and all liberals and everyone should just get on board the fact we need to change the system. >> so in other words the president they can applaud patricia arquette all they want but do as i say and not as i do. >> i really wouldn't go that far. >> you wouldn't go fa far?

>> why won't they do it? >> give them some time. >> they're on their last two years now. how much time do they want? >> when the equal pay act was passed in 1953, it was only at 59 cents on the dollar. now we're at 77 cents a dollar. >> six plus years to do something and he's done nothing. >> i wouldn't say he's done nothing. >> the women in his white house pay less. >> it's pretty hypocritical don't you think? >> yeah, i do. he's had a lot of time to right the wrongs. i think it was "new york times" dinged him for only golfing with men. he's been criticized for being a little unfair. so if you're going to tweet something like that, valleyerie jarrett, make sure you're paying women in the white house leading by example, paying them as much as they pay men. although i will say this. patricia arquette does have a point. but she was standing in hollywood where women have been complaining that they do not make as much as the men make. hollywood is a billion-dollar

boys club. the i would love to hear from that podium if she really had guts to call out hollywood. >> that's a great point. >> she should have started naming names in the audience. that would have been gutsy but i don't think she had the courage to do that. >> kim, let me go to you. i know you're out there in hollywood land. so a lot of poll tings last night. you had common john legend, then patricia arquette et cetera. and pay equality i'm thinking the extravagance everyone's concerned i don't care what everybody's wearing. i don't care what designer it is, kim. that's all people spent -- they're in million-dollar jewels, some of them. nobody was riding in an electric car pulling up. i didn't notice that. >> no rust buckets. >> yeah. and pay inequality, they're all concerned about the government redistributing wealth, aren't these a bunch of hollywood kind of hypocrites in a lot of ways? >> well, there has been this

movement obviously in hollywood where there's been -- they've been saying ask for more because women want to be asked about more than just what they're wearing and dress and jewels. they want to be asked about more issues and roles and same questions men are getding asked on the red carpet. something you're starting to see a change -- >> i watched the preshow oh, what a beautiful dress who's your designer? i don't care. the average american can't relate to this. >> but that's what the actresses are saying. they're saying they don't want to do the manny cam. they want to be asked about more substantial issues like the men are asked. but what there is a point that hollywood does have an issue with women getting paid less. and i think this came to light the sony hacked e-mails that show jennifer lawrence and amy adams got paid less than their male counterparts. there's definitely something people have been focused on in hollywood. the lack of female directors, lack of female writers. i think there really is a focus on getting more women into hollywood. >> i didn't see anybody riding

up on their bicycles, but so many of these people lecture us about the environment. i didn't see anybody in jeans and a t-shirt. >> it's a special night. >> do you think the average american uses limousines and thousands dollars in dresses in jewels. >> that's why americans watch for the glits and glamour, i think it was incredibly gutsy of patty arquette and john legend and "birdman" director. >> we do agree equal pay -- i wish more republicans would talk about it. >> i just want the people that talk about it like the obama white house. >> i don't think it was gutsy because she was in a room full of people that love her. to go into an uncomfortable crowd where they don't agree would have been gutsy. to call out the people in the room, people at sony, but she didn't do that. on the reese witherspoon is saying ask me about my work. i get that but i can't take

actresses seriously. why? she spends how many hours getting ready designers loan her these dresses. if she showed up in a bag or hoody and ask me about my work i would ask her more. >> why don't they mention radical islam, kim, and treatment of women in saudi arabia and other countries under sharia law? i never hear those profound pronouncements. so it seems like they only make safe arguments or safe political statements. is that true? >> well, you know, you only have so much time when you receive an award. you get there and they start playing the music. so you have a small amount of time. i think what she did was a good idea. she said it in a positive way. it got a conversation going. i've seen people on both sides talk about this issue and address it. she didn't do it in an angry way. i don't think anyone getting up there and accusing one side or another. she didn't accuse anyone of keeping anyone down. she just said, here equal pay for women. and people are talking about it.

and i think that's a good thing. i think that's what movies are supposed to do. >> by the way, sean, who are you wearing tonight? >> i don't know. hang on a second. donald trump. >> can you get up and twirl for us? >> it's the donald trump collection. >> a trump original. off the runway. >> coming up we have a major announcement about this program and the 2016 presidential election. it involves the show and you. also check in with rnc chairman reince priebus. he'll be here. but first tonight. >> i'm not telling people to not go to the mall. i think that there needs to be an awareness, there needs to be vigilance and, you know be careful. >> secretary of homeland security is encouraging you, the american people, to be vigilant after the terror group al shabaab reportedly threatening to attack shopping malls here in the country. how alarmed should you be? and up next, lieutenant colonel bill coen and bo dietl straight ahead. >>pretty good? i know i have a 798 fico score thanks to the tools and help on experian.com. kaboom...

welcome back to "hannity." the terrorist group al shabaab posted a disturbing video online threatening attacks on malls in london, america. over the weekend homeland security secretary jeh johnson telling people of the threat. >> i'm not telling people to not go to the mall. i think there needs to be an awareness, vigilance and be careful, obviously. it's a new faze. we're in a new phase right now. and that involves public participation in our efforts. >> here with reaction fox news military analyst lieutenant colonel bill coen and bo dietl. fbi saying we have cells potentially in 49 of 50 states. why is this a surprise to anybody? >> well, you know, these somalians not doing too good hijacking ships they need some energy. so this is truly a threat. again, what we have is the lone

wolf threat. now all of a sudden getting them all ramped up again. and something's going to happen over there. and my biggest problem is are they effectively secure enough where they could have enough fire power if something happens that they could go in there and they could handle something happening? >> colonel coen, what is your reaction? how big a threat do you assess this to be? >> well, sean, we've had threats ever since 9/11. and i would say this fits in with the rest of them. there's no specific information about the mall of america or even other malls. i see a different story here. i see the secretary of homeland security starting to talk about these things because it's a little bit of a fear factor. remember the senate is sitting on the funding bill for the department of homeland security. and by sending a little fear factor out there, which is consistent -- threats have been consistent, fear factor puts pressure on congress the senate to pass that bill. i think that's what it's about. >> newt made a great comment the other day. they've been at war with us since 1979. cobart towers, embassy bombings,

kenya, tanzania u.s.s. cole. >> i'm glad they're saying things like this. let people keep aware there's a real threat taulgtsat all times. if we get complacent then we're going to have a problem. i don't believe the homeland security budget should have anything to do with immigration. we should not pull back on that. we should send the money where we got to send it with homeland security. with tsa and all that. by the republicans holding back on that money i think it's ridiculous. that's my feelings about that. >> all right. i like your hat by the way. >> it's to honor ronald reagan. we remember one thing, i wear this hat for one thing, to remember the last great president we had with this thing that we have in the oval office now. >> all right. thank you, sir. coming up -- thank you, colonel. major announce. right here about the 2016 presidential elections involves the "hannity" show. and new troubles over the clinton foundation accepting foreign donations. how is she going to deal with saudi arabia, oman and uae when

welcome back to "hannity." more questions continue to surround the large amount of

international donations received by the clinton foundation. and now some prominent figures on the left they're starting to turn on hillary. here's what president obama's former press secretary robert gibbs said over the weekend. >> i think there's no doubt that the appearances are awkward at best. and i think they're going to have to do something in the very short term to deal with this in a way that puts it off the table. >> all right. even the mainstream media's now openly questioning the ethics behind the clinton's dealings with money. here's what bloomberg's john hylaman had to say. listen to this. >> the idea she came out secretary of state loosened those restrictions again totally insane. i think it does go to joking to say expensive but they have throughout their political careers been obsessed and insecure about money whether it's on the political side, the thing they've feared most is always been underfinanced on the philanthropic side, their obsession with money leading them to the lincoln bedroom.

this has been the hallmark of their careers. >> here now with reaction is the chairman of the rnc reince priebus. how are you, sir? >> doing all right. nice to see you too. >> let me play the american cross roads, this is now getting a lot of traction. over $2 billion raised for the foundation. millions coming from foreign governments. watch this. >> powerful interests have tried to capture washington and rig the system in their favor. the power of well-funded special interests help our democracy away from the people and toward the powerful. action is required to defend our great democracy against those who would see it perverted into one more rigged game where the rich and the powerful always win. >> that's narrated by elizabeth warren, interestingly enough. pretty powerful. we talk about uae, saudi arabia, all these countries. >> and many of them housing criminals and people that want

to do bad things to americans and everyone else across the globe. look, i think what hillary is setting up is a situation where she's going to have to disclose every single foreign government that's given money to the clinton foundation. she's got over 60 companies that lobbied the state department while she was secretary of state who have since given money to the clinton foundation. >> unbelievable. >> so i would think, you know, all this talk about who's disqualified to run from the left media for every little thing that somebody says. she cannot possibly run for president of the united states without disclosing to the american people which foreign country -- >> agree with you. you called for that and it's made a lot of news. here's what i want to know. if republicans -- if mitt romney is involved in a war on women because he has womens resumes, how about the treatment of women in saudi arabia? they can't drive. they can't be seen in public without male relatives.

if you leave the muslim faith and become christian and accept jesus into your heart the penalty is death. >> and they're taking millions of dollars from these people. >> right. >> so you can ask about how the women are treated in the white house, they have serious questions that need to be answered not this silly questions that our candidates are being asked. >> well the reason is you know, the question barack obama ran for president and how many times do you think? you probably know he was asked about a unrepetent

domestic terrorist --. >> i know the answer. >> one time. . >> i think it was george stephanopoulos that asked barack obama about errors. a tweet from tommy thompson says our candidates have been asked more about barack obama's background so far than barack obama was asked in 2008. we've got isis without seemingly any sort of strat wri going on across the world and we've got hillary clinton now taking millions are from foreign governments and wants to be president of the use united states. >> every reporter wants to ask about what they think of rudy giuliani? >> this is silly. this identify we're talking about what do you think is in the cameraman's heart here?

is the cameraman? >> he plays jesus in a passion play every year. he's a good guy. >> playing these silly questions about what is in someone else's heart? >> you made a announcement about debates. you changed rules a lot this year. you've decided you're not going to put candidates repeatedly in front of media media people that hate them. >> this last weekend is a good example of what happened. and especially in washington, d.c. beltway. look i don't think anyone out there thinks 23 debate circus is good for the party. especially in front of moderators like chris matthews this is about using our brains giving all of us an opportunity to vet our candidates but put them in front of people. not saying dictate moderators

but have a say so people that give a darn about the future of our party actually have a voice in who our nominee is going to be. >> thanks for joining us. >> coming up next, on "hannity". >> how do you think angelinaea jolie did as rosa parks in "selma"? was it powerful? >> yes. very powerful. >> n do that is impactful?" what the cloud enables is computing to empower cancer researchers. it used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud we can analyze 100 per day. whatever i can do to help compute a cure for cancer, that's what i'd like to do.
