is proven to help people quit smoking. for me, chantix worked. it reduced my urge to smoke. compared to the nicotine patch, chantix helped significantly more people quit smoking. when you try to quit smoking, with or without chantix, you may have nicotine withdrawal symptoms. some people had changes in behavior or thinking, aggression, hostility, agitation, depressed mood or suicidal thoughts or actions with chantix. serious side effects may include seizures, new or worse heart or blood vessel problems, sleepwalking or allergic and skin reactions which can be life-threatening. stop chantix and get help right away if you have any of these. tell your healthcare provider if you've had depression or other mental health problems. decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. use caution when driving or operating machinery. the most common side effect is nausea. i'm so proud to be a non-smoker. ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. many insurance plans cover chantix for a low or $0 copay.

5:17 am
looking at that seriously. if it were somebody trying to do a dry run, the advantages, of course, of doing a dry run is the fact that you get to see how law enforcement is deployed, what their reaction is, where the reaction is not only to the package, but to other places in the airport. the huge disadvantage, of course, is they played their hands. and what is going to happen is in every single airport, all three airports in the area will be looking more alertly for any package such as this laid down. so it doesn't really make any sense to do a dry run with an empty package like this. with all the cameras and everything that exist today, they'll be reviewing all those, but they'll go back to the package itself. it's in a brown paper bag. is the bag from a local merchant? is it a store? they'll be doing all these things for instance bicly they normality forensically they normally would do. they'll also be looking at the pressure cooker, where was it manufactured, is it distributed just locally or a national
5:18 am
brand, distributed every place? they'll also be looking for fingerprints there. and one important thing is they'll be looking for trace elements. if, in fact, this is a potential bomber, they'll be looking to see whether or not this, the package -- either the brown paper bag or the pressure cooker -- ever was near any explosive guys. so they'll be looking for a lot of trace elements. there's a lot of work, and if it was a prank, they need to catch this person and lock 'em up. pete: hey, bill, as far as targets are concerned, how much focus has the fbi had on the airports, jfk, laguardia, newark? be such proximity to new york city, i feel like those are fertile targets. >> they really are. it's any place like that. i think that probably we need to put a little more emphasis on some of the train stations as well, the amtrak stations are absolutely large targets for people that would do something evil like this. but the airports are extremely important targets.

ambassador told moscow that kushner wanted secret channel with kremlin. if back channeling is such a crime, why did so many past presidents do it as well? >> private channels, back channels are as old as diplomacy itself. richard nixon used a back channel to end the war in vietnam. george h.w. bush used a back channel to end the cold war through the vatican and to poland. so it's very common. in fact, it's for our safety, it's necessary, it's to avoid misunderstandings and problems, and you can trust a family member. secretary of state can be changed, a diplomat may not make it to the last stop on the station, but a member of the family's going to be there. clayton: so is the media getting ahead of themselves on this story again? lawrence jones and former director of strategic communications for hillary clinton, adrienne elrod. you disagree with the assessment

5:46 am
genocide of christians across the middle east is a story that has been hidden in many ways. how deep is that crisis? >> people would like to think that this has nothing to do with religion, and that's just false. these coptic christians were targeted not because they were coptic, not because they were on this bus or that bus, but because they were coptic christians who every single day know they are putting their lives on the line. they could just totally blend into society. they actually choose to get up and go to church knowing that it might be their last time. abby: yeah. what did you make of president trump's recent comments about terrorists when he was over in europe, calling them monsters, calling them losers? i mean, using language that we haven't heard ever really when it comes to terrorism. >> sometimes you need to use that type of language in order to wake people up, right? that's why, that's why we're doing some coverage of it when he says, you know what? i'm not even going to call them monsters, because they would like to be called monsters, they are losers.
5:47 am
and the fact is, they actually are losers. in the sense of they are wasting their life. they are losing their life. they are living for something that is a dead end not only here in the now, but also i would say in eternity. clayton: this is the first time we've had you on the show since we've had a chance to talk about the president's trip with the pope and having a chance to meet face to face, talking a little pizza saw. [laughter] what did you think of the meetings? >> i thought it was very respectful. here are two people who come together certainly in respect for life and understanding the urgency of stopping isis. remember two and a half years ago not many people talk about this, but two and a half years ago it was pope francis, the one who is known as being a peace-loving person who he obviously is, two and a half years ago he was telling an international community you better get your act together. and through the united finish his ambassador to the united nations saying use force if necessary to stop the unjust aggressor. and it was then, it was shortly
5:48 am
after that that president obama did step up the fight against isis, and the world community came together to a certain degree. but in that sense, i think president trump and pope francis have a lot in common. pete: on this memorial day weekend as a man of faith, how does it make you feel? >> just watching those gentlemen out there, knowing these are super talented -- abby: what was that like in person? >> super talented, and they are putting their lives on the line. that means there's something bigger than ourselves worth not only living for, but dying for, and that points towards eternity. if you don't believe in eternity, why would you possibly put your life on the line? they believe in something bigger than themselves, and it's so impressive and we're so grateful. pete: and you would not make the cut for the tug-of-war team.

[laughter] if any of us can understand him, it's a difficult challenge, but you've risen to the challenge. the mainstream media seems to understand him, former speaker, and seems to think that he's coming back into the middle of chaos into the swamp. >> let me say, first of all, that my book's not called predicting trump -- [laughter] i think that's impossible. but i think what people have to understand is that we have two competing, alternative realities, and one of the great tests of the trump team is going to be can they stick this their world -- in their world and ignore all the people on the other side. they just had a remarkably
6:04 am
successful trip. everywhere they went, i think they were achieving their goal sometimes with a little bit of treasure. they were pushing nato, for example, to spend more money and meet its fair share. they were not patsies for anybody. they had an extraordinary historic moment in riyadh comparable to anything any american president has done. so they were doing well. how are they doing it? they were disciplined, they were strategic, they stayed on message, they didn't play games with the elite media. meanwhile, back here at home if you watch some of these networks, it's almost like, oh, you know, trump's off on a trip, and let me tell you about the stuff we really love are. i hope they will come home focus on jobs, health, infrastructure, tax cuts and basically shove to one side all of this garbage. pete: yeah. >> take the case of what the current, the current argument about jared kushner. clayton: right. >> you are a brand new administration. you believe you were being
6:05 am
eavesdropped on by obama, which we now know was true, you believe that -- you want to find a way to break out of the current relationship with russia. is there anything illegitimate about a new administration, after the election, sitting down and talking with any country in the world? the answer's no. pete: be of course not. >> but if you're the washington post or new york times and you have the right quote, unnamed sources -- abby: right. you're exactly right. there's really no difference between reading the inquirer and reading something like "the washington post" because no longer do you have the days where you actually need to name two sources, let alone one. president trump was tweeting about this as well. he says whenever you see the words sources say in the fake news media and they don't mention names, it is very possible that those sources don't exist but are made up by fake news writers. hashtag, fake news is the enemy. he's going right after them. but to his point, speaker, this is really difficult for the american people to figure out because how many stories are
6:06 am
leaked base ad off a letter or an unnamed source. >> but let's throw out a distinction. i wrote my newsletter this week on the very real notion that we should lock up people who leak secrets. there's political garbage, there are people who go across to the starbucks near the white house and they sit and tell insider stories. that's unfortunate and you ought to fire them if you can find them, but that's not the same as violating the secrecy acts. people who violate the secrecy acts ought to go to jail. whatwhat happened with the manchester information, for example, after the bombing in manchester undermined the british investigation, weakened our relationship to our allies, and it's dangerous. whoever leaked that should go to jail. now, you start putting a few people in jail, you'll see the leaks dry up dramatically. pete: sure. >> but let me say one other thing, because i think this is one of the great challenges of the trump administration and will help decide their fate in history. if the president would simply read what he writes, he would
6:07 am
cancel the daily briefings. why would -- look at everything he writes about the fake media, about they're our enemies, they're dishonest, they're totally dishonest, i mean, read the stuff he says. if that's all true, why would you play a game that legitimizes them by letting them in the white house for a daily briefing? they don't care about information. their job is to humiliate spicer, find a way to catch him off guard, play gotcha games. and i've said strongly and i'm going to keep saying it, they ought to cancel the daily briefing because it is nothing except a vehicle for the attack media. pete: it's like briefing the hillary clinton campaign staff. it's got to be frustrating. it's hard to imagine a better first foreign trip for a president, yet the whole time the so-called mainstream media and fake news are calling out other issues that are not even a scandal. and then you've got even more this idea there's a shake-up coming. there's always a looming shake-up. and "the washington post" and new york times have two headlines about what's going to
6:08 am
happen when they come home, who's in, who's out. so we did some research on some headlines since january of all the people that the knives are out for, right, that are soon to be gone, it just turns out none of them are gone yet. so those knives were out for reince priebus in march, kellyanne conway in february, bannon's job was in danger in april, and it goes on and on with h.r. mcmaster, the knives are are out for him in may -- abby: and spicer since the beginning. pete: he's been out forever. sebastian gorka, knives are out for gary cohn in march. i mean, the way -- the palace intrigue, it's not reporting, it's just gossip to try to take this down. >> but you've got to erase everything you learned as a child about the news media, all right? be look, lions eat zebras. this may seem like an odd parallel, but i if i said, oh, there's a lion eating a zebra,
6:09 am
you wouldn't say, oh, my gosh, how could he be eating his friends? [laughter] nald trump and wants to destroy him. this is why they should cancel the daily briefings. they sit up all evening drinking and talking to each other thinking what can we do? when they wake up in the morning their opening line to themselves is i know donald trump did something horrible, i wonder what it is. now, the white house has to get other this and, frankly, all of us who are their friends have to get over this. "the new york times" is their mortal enemy. cnn was 93-7 negative, according to harvard. 93-7. why would you let anybody from cnn have anything to do with the trump administration when they are 93-7 negative? abby: how do you get that balance right though, speaker? there's an important role for media. we try to do the best job that we can, but you don't want to live in a place like north korea. so where do you find -- >> wait, hold -- wait -- abby: halls letting the media do their job. >> first of all, the president
6:10 am
has a thousand ways to communicate with the american people. he can do formal speeches, tweet, facebook live, he can have skype events with people around the country, and all of his cabinet officers can also communicate, and i have no problem if they want to do off-camera briefings, but the media has an obligation to cover what it covers. it doesn't have an obligation -- there's no requirement in the american system for people to have the kind of dog and pony show on television we have. franklin delano roosevelt at his very first press briefing in 1933 says to the reporters, you cannot quote me directly. you can quote an unnamed white house source. he never gives an on the record briefing in 12 years, and he says if you violate this, you'll be kicked out, and you won't be back in the briefings. clayton: there's been relationships, obviously, with the press closer jfk, of course, during the cuban missile crisis,
6:11 am
i mean, could have created even more chaos had the press not listened to what the president had to say. i think that civility is long gone. >> well, look, consider just for a second melania, who's a terrific first lady of the united states who looked fabulous everywhere, if she were a liberal democrat, she'd be on the cover of every women's magazine in america, okay? >> every one. >> if donald trump were jfk, he could afford to do this. if sean spicer was pierre salinger, you could afford to do this. the news media loved john f. kennedy. they covered up for him, they didn't report his various weaknesses. the fact was the news media was going to turn him into camelot any way they could. and so he could -- he was playing the game he could play. what i'm suggesting to you is this president's greatest strength is reaching the american people, his greatest power of re-election will be achievements, creating real jobs, creating real tax cuts, getting health care fixed.
6:12 am
and the danger they have is that they get up every morning and they get sucked into this dance that is entirely destruct iive n which the elite media pays attention, and my guess is they spend more time trying to prepare spicer for the daily fight with the media than they spend trying to communicate -- abby: i bet you're exactly right. pete: mr. speaker, unfortunately, we've got to take a quick break. can you stick around with us? >> glad to, sure. pete: we'll get the speaker's take on the climate agreement and whether or not it's a good with the to be in or out. we'll be right back with the speaker. clayton: plus, one day after hillary clinton slammed president trump in a commencement speech, joe biden stepped to the microphone. you'll hear what he had to say. abby: and, of course, the in just a few hours half a million bikers are going to hit the road in our nation's capital to remember our prisoners of war. the founder of rolling thunder is going to join us right here live. i love this event. ♪ a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter v8 engine.

6:17 am
should be in favor of developing technologies that are helpful. we should be in favor of practical, common sense things. but i want to emphasize that when you start into gigantic, very complicated, centrally-administered bureaucracies and you start saying the united states ought to do more than anybody else and we ought to transfer money to everybody else, you know, one of the great breakthroughs that obama had was china signed an agreement that beginning in 2030 they would start changing. now, the idea that we're going to be at a competitive disadvantage for the next 13 years, and remember, all of these nice liberals who meet at the ritz carlton in paris and have all these nice agreements in between gourmet dinners before they get on their nice airplanes to go back home flying business or first class, these folks are fine. but the working poor and the very poor on the planet get crushed by these kind of agreements. so i am for more economic growth. wealthier countries are better
6:18 am
for the environment. poorer countries inevident9 my are harder for the environment, and i think we should recognize if you want to save large mammals, i'm very much for conservation, you have to have countries wealthy enough that they can afford to save animals and wealthy enough that they can afford to save their ecosystem. abby: i've lived in china, they have not changed their ways. anyone that lives in beijing you wake up, and you can't even see outside the window. pete: it's also the difference between being a conservationist and the sort of zealotry of the climate change side of the aisle. there was an article in the ap recently that basically wrote the earth's obituary were we not to be a part of the paris climate accord. >> oh, i know. pete: even sooner if the u.s. pulls back from its pledge to cut carbon dioxide because america contributes so much to rising temperatures. i mean, isn't it as much about -- as you said, the international regulatory schemes that put power in the hands of bureaucrats and always punish us

president vowing to beat and destroy isis and keep us safe from terror. the left-wing media, however, is horrified by what they feel is the president's failure to recognize climate change. and our next guest has heard some of those, the worst terrorists predict firsthand how the media either on purpose -- this is from his book enhanced interrogation -- the media either on purpose or without realizing it would promote isis' cause and champion measures to protect the american people after 9/11 many. so is the liberal media helping to further the radical agenda? doctor, these are are some pretty powerful perspectives. you've been in the trenches, you understand the threat of this islamist enemy. you're saying unwittingly or wittingly, the mainstream media will pursue narratives that are unhelpful to our fight against these terrorists. >> yeah. just take president trump's recent visit to the g7 conference. the media's hair is on fire, the
6:46 am
liberal media are wringing their hands and wailing about the fact that he did not endorse the paris claimant accord instead of focusing on what the real danger is. it seems that some people in the press believe that the most pressing thing for trump to be focused on is some hypothetical change of a few fractions of a degree in temperature years and years and years from now as opposed to the very real danger of islamic terror attacks here. that terror attack in manchester should be a wake-up call for not just the u.k., but for the u.s. too -- pete: unfortunately -- >> yeah. it turns out what they thought was a lone wolf attack actually was one of those things where the guy had traveled several times overseas, fought with al-qaeda in libya, learned his bomb-making skills there, made multiple trips, came back, set up a bomb factory in a rented apartment and then blew up all those children. pete: yeah, absolutely.
6:47 am
i mean, we've -- if i'm a climate denier, these folks are islamist deniers. do people really understand the scope of this threat and how not addressing it properly just enables it? >> i don't think they do get a good sense of it. one of the things that i haven't really seen talked about that much is this emerging fact that isis has set up a online coaching -- i mean, we talk about being radicalized online, but they actually do more than that. they provide training, and they provide guy dance, and they provide advice, and they help spread news about what the supportive networks are online. president trump, in my view, should be focused on protecting americans here, securing our borders, protecting the homeland from terror attacks and doing something about stopping the carnage in the middle east before we start worrying about
6:48 am
two-tenths of a degree and one degree of celsius maybe 50 years from now. pete: sure. >> that paris climate accord will cost something like a trillion dollars a year and result in less than two-tenths of one degree of -- pete: of course. international regulatory schemes like that also transfer sovereignty from the united states to international bureaucrats which is harmful in and of itself. but you were part of the interrogation of the mastermind of 9/11, ksm. he said things to you about what would happen over the next 15 years, the way the west would react. besides president trump who's willing to call the enemy out and call out our allies for not doing enough against the threat of terrorism, are we doing enough or are we falling into the trap that ksm predicted? >> well, the one thing that became clear to me in talking with them was that political correctness serves as a cloaking device. it allows them to operate in the open. and unfortunately, the liberal media makes that possible.
6:49 am
they expose the secrets that have been keeping us safe, and then wail about the way that they view the intrusions into the privacy of overseas folks who are actually quite dangerous to us. you know, again, these people who are attacking us are not unknown to the authorities. the authorities ooh hands are tied -- authorities' hands are tied because of our approach to political correctness. pete: such a great point. when you control the language, you control almost everything. if you don't call it what it is -- >> exactly. pete: dr. james mitchell, thank you, as always, for your expertise on this important subject. up next, he's an all-american country music star with a passion for supporting our troops, and he's doing something very special on this memorial day weekend. shane owens performs live on the plaza. here he is with "working man's blues." ♪ ♪
