and we'll never be the media mob, laura is next, see youev monday. >> laura: i'm laura ingraham special edition of the "ingraham angle" from washington. and what a show we have for you. harmit dillon, mark penn raymond arroyo here. we have an amazing supremero star-studded panel in moments. and tonight, what we have planned is something really special. at the end of the show, we have a very, very serious warning. and we weren't going to show this image to you, but we decided we just had to do it. i mean there's a big debate among the staff but we needed to do it. just for the sake of transparency. you have to hold on for the end

of the show for that. but it's a slight warning as ndwell. tonight we're going to be pulling back the curtain on the left brazen plans to fundamentally up-end the america that we know and love. now, listening to the democrats discuss fo instance climate change or guns or the border it's easy, i think, for conservatives to dismiss them as political outliars. we have to take them very seriously. they're not just trying to dominate politics. they also want to radically alter america's culture this requires what? and religious landscape. well, well financed and organized plans to silence all opposing voices. and then demonize them, and ultimately drive them from public life. in other words, submit or be eliminated. but if enough good people don't stand up and say no you won't

then i think you better prepare to see some of our time-honored traditions, patriotic and relations expressions. fairness eradicated. we will have seen the united states tragically defeated from like today, it's banding straws tomorrow it's banning guns. suspending a conservative on facebook eventually spirals int banning conservatives from teaching in public schools. where and when does the shunning end? you can see how this could be quickly end up in a dark place. where half of the country, feels really disillusioned and desperate. is what we really need now more division in the united states? i'm sad to report that the democrats seem to think so. and on that theme, we begin

tonight with what's been happening with new orleans saints quarterback drew brees. the liberal mob is gunning for him for appearing in a focus on the family video, conservative and delivering this controversial message. >> one of my favorite verses in the bible is second corinthians 5:7, we live by faith not by sight. i want to encourage you to live out your faith, bring your bible to school day, and share god's love with friends. you are not alone. >> laura: share god's love. really controversial. the backlash was swift. brees' problems started wednesday, something called the big easy magazine, more like the big sleazy, leftist rag in new orleans, published this story. drew brees records video for anti-lgbt religious organization. now, even though that is not a fair description of what focus

on the family does, its mission even though brees himself saidmi nothing controversial, the media pounced and demanded that brees apologize. ladies and gentlemen, this is the anatomy of a smear. we have talked about this over the last year. this is how the outrage machine works. it's well oiled. my question tonight, when did the left become such a sensorious group of pure i tans? i want to bring the panel in to many topics.ng the panel in to marmit dill monday, trump 2020 advisory board member. charlie kirk, founder and president of turning point usa. raymond arroyo, fox news contributor. and mark penn, democrat pollster. the new orleans representative here, raymond, where did the story originate? i've never heard of this

publication. >> the big easy magazine. i am a new orleans native, lived there for 50 years, i've never heard of this thing. they were started last year. they call themselves the online home of progressive new orleans. they're not even a real publication. unapologetically progressive. when i started doing some research to give you an idea of the type of extremism they peddle in. there featuring a story sex in the big easy, take story in my breath away, a guide to the big easy guide to understanding erotic asphyxiation. i can't even read that to you. >> laura: what? >> that is so grotesque. this is the frame work drew brees is being depicted against lgbt people. it was innocuous as you saw bible suggestion, he didn't say anything. take your bible to school. >> laura: so his truth and the truth of millions one millions of bible believing christians in the united states is a demonic

truth. that's not a truth that can be shared. you can't say spread god's love really? >> this is organized, as you mentioned, this is an organized alattack. that story from the big easy magazine was picked up by the "washington post." >> laura: the dig sleazy. >> everybody picked it up and ran with it, drew brees was upset by this as you can p imagine. >> laura: charlie kirk we've seen it time and again, used on yours truly, so many there in end driven by journalist, but somehow become anti- free expression. the journalists themselves are sensorious, i've never seen anything like it. >> the journalists are activists no, longer looking into the truth. the journalism schools are training students to put their agenda above the facts or above the actual story. you see it's almost as if the journalists write the headlines.

find the sources they need to confirm the headline afterwards. that's the death of investigative journalism. i hope drew brees doesn't back down. i'm afraid he will. when you look the left wing mob in the face, it's very, very difficult especially when he was sponsors and the entire nfl collin kaepernick kneels during the national anthem, praised by the national media. and drew brees says that people should pray, honor jesus christ as our lord and savior and read the bible, that's controversial? your open was so special. you said this is a cultural battle and cultural, politics always flows downstream from oculture. >> laura: they go after them. >> i never thought we'd have that in our country. >> laura: the left is masterful at using the culture to change minds, especially the young people and demonize good people

like drew brees. mark penn,n, this is how drew brees responded from the blistering attacks for the smal video about bring your bible to school day. watch. >> a lot of negativity spread about me in the lgbtq community recently based upon an article that some one wrote with a negative headline. i'd like to set the record straight. i live by two very simple christian fundamentals. that is love the lord with all your heart, mind and soul. the second one, love your neighbor as yourself, all people, no matter race, color religious preference, your sexual orientation, your political beliefs. what i did was filmed a video that was encouraging kids to bring their bibles to school for national bring your bible to school day. it was as simple as that. >> laura: mark, what's going on here? >> i think the whole country left and right, has become too intolerant.

the voters really look and they see, donald trump on twitter, in the most recent poll, 71% said he should get off. and they see the media exaggerating every story and blowing it up through social media. this is creating a country in which their economic prosperity and people are unhappy with the direction of the country because of this disunity and disruption. >> laura: isn't the right track-wrong track better than obama? >> it's gotten better but the economic number improved 20 points. why wouldn't the right track-wrong track improve? the country is fighting over every little thing on twitter social media. not where people can be toleranf and enjoy the country the way it was. >> laura: i have to push back, i think drew brees is extremely tolerant, one of the guys, does more for new orleans, ben watson

playing with the patriots amazing individual, so it's watson, brees, a number of people on the saints. then the nfl doing amazing stuff then the nfl doing amazing stuff helping children. harmit, i was reading the comments about drew's response. and people on the right say why did you, you know, you should have smacked back at themm or flipped them off, because they're intolerant. did you grovel? or was that kind of a smart response by him? >> well, i don't think he grovelled at all, it was very mature a lot of people would have reacted angrily. but he has faith in his heart and that showed in his christian response. unfortunately, everybody who's anybody prominent in the country whether they are they're aist or trump administration officials journalists, trump officials have to brace themselves for this world we live in. a confluence of many factors. on the right and the left. journalism is gone from the

papers, people thinking and compare to click bait garbage. a race to the bottom. any digital dish rag like the big easy or what have you can destroy somebody's reputation and takes a lot of maturity to respond. i will say people like kanye west, prominent people, have been able to recover from this. but it is the people not that prominent, celebrities athletes, they never get a second hans. this is corrosive and we shouldn't be doing at. >> laura: call out what happened here, is really clearly for what it is, this is a smash and smear job. w not based in truth and not based in fact. it's happening all the time. raymond, the point is to drive people off the stage of conversation. they don't want, i mean ben watson, he responded, he said this is so weak. he said stop lying. i have done plenty of work with focus on the family and will continue to. no problem speaking up for my

friends when they are slandered. thank you for calling me benjamin by the way. >> drew brees, i'm a big saints fan, there every sunday. drew brees is one of the esteemed members of our community, shows up at a restaurant, buys people dinner show,ing up at his kids games. but what this is about, and what we all should be bracing ourselves for, this is about ntolerance to his religious expression. innocuous religious expression. they want to tamp it down. using the media and the pressure of media to bully a man of this stature, good family man, into submission. they want to silence him. i hope drew doesn't back off stays in the game. new orleans is all about faith family, and football. we need all those things reaffirmed. i hope new orleans saints fans let their voices be heard. when i read the big easy magazine today --

>> laura: you've given them more publicity. >> i love you, but your apology sucks. the guy is an atheist. wants him to disavow focus on the family. >> laura: this the point, it's tnever good enough. it's a conservative apologizing for something i frankly don't see what he had to apologize for. but he said you got it wrong. not good enough. he still is slandered. where is the "washington post," "new york times," all of these journalists saying this is ridiculous. they don't want to run afoul of particular groups that have an enormous amount of influence and power. they havemo power to smear and destroy people. that's what is happening now. i don't think it's happening equally on the left and the right. trump tweets. we're talking about an entire media establishment. all of hollywood.

most churches would agree, would agree with the big sleazy. a lot of more liberal churches today as well. >> the media has to be reformed. we covered the last presidential race. we saw two years of trump russia collusion i never thought was there and isn't there. and now, they're searching for issues. and they're searching for new issues. i think there are problems with the media. i was looking today at the image of various newspapers and far lower than i ever imagined they would be. the public, you should know, has caught on to this. and the media is going to have to change and the new reporters out there, that don't have the long term experience and issues constitution, political system have got to have editors who really supervise them. or we'll continue like this. >> laura: it's not just freedomm to express your faith within the four walls of your church. they want people to never talk about the bible in public. i mean pretty n much. if you're a conservative, you

can't mention it. there's another thing that happened this week, guys, and i want to go to charlie kirk on this. bullying not just in the sports world, but newly appointed labor department official leif olson forced to resign after bloom burg accused him of writing an anti-semitic facebook post. it was a complete lie. i join many others in standing up for mr. olson, never met him i said the white house should undue this resignation otherwise they're sending a terrible message, staff being bullied out of work by the media mob. thankfully around the same time i sent the tweet he was reinstated. this is serious. even the trump administration kind of clearly accepted his resignation, canned him, and finally reversed it. but who's going to go into

government if this smear can throw you into the national headlines and your career into the incinerator potentially. >> totally correct. thank you for standing up for him and doing the right thing. it was a slanderous and libelous article that was written. such sloppy activist journal i. this goes back to the culture that is going. the left believes that they are able to deplatform any person they disagree with, any person that gets too powerful by writing slanderous articles going after their place of work. if they just disagree just enough, people in the center left are experiencing this. this is so dangerous. because in america we have this idea that shoulds be a market place of ideas and diverse opinions. not any more. this going back to a core trend hah we see. the radicalism brewing up on college campuses over 40 years is all throughout the culture. the college campus radicalism is no longer contained in the campuses. it's in the halls of congress

andes in senate confirmation hearings, if anyone, you see the speakers disinvited such as myself on college campuses, all over the culture. >>ol laura: harmeet you said it before, but the left has for a long time wanted the entire country to be one big college campus. right, where the disciplinary hearings, this person gets expelled and that one can't join a fraternity, this one kicked off this or that club, people segregated but it's okay. speech codes. this is nirvana for them. last word. >> you and i experienced this at dartmouth, fairly extreme place for the issues but it's commonplace on campuses and private school campuses including christian campuses i've heard from young americas foundation. students are taught little or nothing, world culture no historical perspective journalists are terrible, people

don't have a chance to fight back, for every leif olson, 10 t trump officials lost their jobs they quietly went away because they wanted to feed their families. this has to stop. >> laura: absolutely. and panel, fantastic conversation. raymond, thank you, we'll say goodbye but you will be back for friday follies. charlie hit it hard, it's also coming to other workplaces. we'll reveal the jobs the democrats think disqualify you from being in the public arena. here, it all starts with a simple...

hello! -hi! how can i help? a data plan for everyone. everyone? everyone. let's send to everyone! [ camera clicking ] wifi up there? -ahhh. sure, why not? how'd he get out?! a camera might figure it out. that was easy! glad i could help. at xfinity, we're here to make life simple. easy. awesome.

so come ask, shop, discover at your xfinity store today. the campus culture is coming to america's businesses. what is the latest target? those who work in the booming oil and gas industry. not even working class joe biden could stand up for them. >> how can we trust to you hold these corporations and executives accountable for their crimes against humanity when we know that tomorrow you are holding high dollar fundraiser hosted by andrew goldman a fossil fuel executive. >> he's not a fossil fuel executive.ed i have argued and pushed for us suing those executives who are orengaged in pollution.

>> laura: tougher stand. well it's not just oil and gas it's all fossil fuels. democrats are still hell-bent on killing the coal industry even though the head of the miners union support the climate agenda. >> i don't think a good starting point for democrats is eliminating union jobs. it seems democrats need a lot more union members as opposed to fewer. >> laura: so is it really a stretch to ask what businesses they'll come for next? joining me again is harmeet dillon, and john former assistant general. you've been living in california, it's been going on for a while. what's your response to democrats vilifying an entire industry, of course that, has created thousands upon thousand of relief while playing jobs fo people at all levels of the economic ladder. what kind of future, modern industry future, will this allow for?

>> well, laura, as a conservative trapped in berkeley, thanks for bringing this issue to light on your show. i've seen the woshs the of this culture of speakers who can't speak, mobs who target unpopular professors or students. it's great issue. this is a terrible thing and this is part of the left's desire to pull down and destroy institutions. one way you do it, throw them off course. insteadou of having businesses work hard to provide the bestse products at the cheapest cost for consumers, you radicalize them, make it about ideology. consider what this will do the fossil fuel industry. this is, as you said, this is au industry that provides great paying jobs, lower paying jobs throughout the economy and built up strong businesses. the left says we shouldn't be in these wars in the middle east they should love the tracking business, it makes america the biggest exporter of energy in the world and reduces our reliance on middle east and

makes us less likely to get involved there. think about what happens if we start tearing back the ideology of businesses, costs are going to go up for consumers, pushedss by a party that claims they care the most about the people who are the poorest or the weakest in our society. who you think is going to suffer? >> laura: al gore, the obamas they don't care for you, they're in march that's vineyard. -- martha's vineyard. the little guy carries the burden. i have to say, despite promising as you heard biden do not to take dirty oil money, despite that clip, biden gave a mini lesson to this eco-activist on how the real world works. >> how can we trust that you're going on act on climate, on the climate crisis if you're stilln attending fund raisers that fossil fuel executives like andy goldman are at? >> if you have a 401-k do you have any investmentt in an oil company? does that disqualify you to be engaged?

>> laura: is it me or did he seem like clint east wood? i mean, that's pretty good line. how many teachers' pension funds, 401-ks, every industry that touches the oil industry petroleum is used in so many products, plastics. where does this go, mark. >> right. that's the problem with these kinds of rules that are vague. is it an executive, is it an investor in the company, is it somebody with a pension fund with stock in the company? what about the meat industry? there could be no end to this if you don't say look, we have to make a judgment. he raised money from who he raises it from. joe biden has independent in any event his views on climate judge?n that's the judgment the vote hears to make. we can't have everybody targeting everybody. i tell you one interesting poll statistic that has fascinated me for a year or two. 40% of americans are afraid to reveal their political views to their family and 40% of

americans are afraid to reveal their political views at work.. now, this is supposed to be a free democracy, people have, not preaching violence, an open first amendment culture. 40% are now stopping, giving of the their own -- >> laura: we talked about this last night, what was the percentage, i can't remember, in colleges, 75%, thank you, are afraid, charlie kirk, to discus, their political beliefs, predilections, their viewpoints in college where you really mix it up and have a robust exchang of ideas. now why, are they doing it they're liberal and worried the conservative professors are going to grade them down? no, they're afraid they might be conservative on some issues and they truly are afraid, john and harmeet, everyone, of being

demonized and not be able to get a job when they graduate? heaven forbid, be a cattle rancher, that will be demonized soon or be in the poultry business. >> that's exactly right. biden is a little behind the times.si there's a big movement to get pension funds and endowments to divest from fossil fuel companies. that is an untolerable position among the the base of the democratic party. the 70% of college students afraid to express political opinions, this is a bad thing. in some ways there's optimism in it. we find this work that we're we find this work that we're campuses across the country it's horrible thetr culture of intolerance exist on the campuses and students don't feel comfortable to express opinions. it's positive, the action might be more conservative than we realize. they're not afraid to express their liberal views, give me a break, not as if university of vermont, i'm really afraid to talk about the green new deal. the student might be at

university of vermont and say i think that tracking may not be the worst thing in the history much civilization. today elizabeth warren said she she would ban fracking everywhere in an executive order . that makes you feel good, it would not do good to ban fracking but boy would it make the environmental activists fee good. they want control of other people's lives. >> laura: they say trump is the dictator, they would dictate every minor and major decision going down to the thermostat level, the kind of car you drive. harmeet, is there a way, maybe you and john can reference it for the trump administration justice department, to look into a wide scale civil rights investigation on some of these college campuses, get federal funds, where this type of speech intimidation is happening.

is there any conceivable action or investigation that might back these bullies off a little bit on the free speech stuff? laura, they absolutely could do that. absolutely could do that. the president did sign an executive order urging departments to do this. to my knowledge, nothing has happened as a result of that. there's several hundred attorneys in the civil rights division whose job it is to look cout for these issues. we aren't seeing a focus on that. the consequences are real. i represented aa number of young people who have had legal battles because of these issues employees like james demoore and people like that withrk issues t the workplace. it can be very devastating. cause depression, anxiety, they can't -- any choice these made in college are going to follow them around forever.ho for every leif olson, there's others that have lost their views because of views that were demonized by others. we have to stop it, at least in the public institution, you have a right to not be denied

benefits, not denied the right to graduate, not to be denied the endorsement letters. >> laura: i want to get john to close it out. harmeet made the point nothing has happened after the president signed this executive order. something must happen, john something has to be done. the president has to kick some tail here on this issue. because it's not fair to the students and a it's a total rat hole that we're throwing our taxpayers down if this is the atmosphere on all of these college campuses, most today. john, last word. >> i completely agree that this is, this suppressing views and ideas, totally corrupting our colleges and universities. it's very simple, trump could do it tomorrow, all he has to do ia say we're not going to give any federal funds to any college or university in the country that discriminates based on viewpoint or speech. colleges and universities have become completely dependent on

ll federal government. all because universities accept federal funds, scholarships research grants, except hillsdale college in michigan f the president said i'm going to order the department of education to stop giving money to all of these discriminatory universities, they will stop discriminating on the very next day. president trump can do it. >> laura: got to do it. panel, fantastic conversation no one else has had this conversation, i couldn't think of anv better panel. up next, in style magazine in hot water for racial appropriation. new york city police, twirk at a festival. and joe biden saying his mental decline? is that friday follies? it's raymond arroyo next.

>> laura: it's time for friday follies. this is a mean friday follies. this is a mean friday follies. raymond arroyo is here with the details. raymond, first of all, an appearance for you, double, a two-fer. you talk about johnny depp getting in trouble for ttmisappropriating native amerin culture even though -- he has more native american than elizabeth warren.

jennifer anniston in trouble. >> in style magazine featured anniston, on a nice cover. ever since the release, you see it there,in the magazine has ben inundated with charges, people say anniston's skin tone is too dark. why is she ten shades darker than she is. another wrote could she be air bushed any darker. in 20199 if you want a brown skinned woman on the cover put a brown skinned woman on the cover. we asked in style about the controversy. they said, quote, jennifer anniston october cover shoot was inspired by iconic beauty looks from the '60s and '70s, our annual beauty issue. this one shot in particular was inspired by varushka, the german model popular in the '60s.s. this is a culture of offense where everybody is waiting to be triggered.

>> laura: pathetic. >> reputations, personality, and now magazines are getting caught in the crossfire. we have to take a step back. >> laura: remember the ban desoleil? >> that was a deep tan. >> laura: i remember people using that stuff, qt lotion. it wasse like self-tanner. >> i'm worried now. my big concern, joaquin phoenix is going to be playing the joker. i'm concerned that he could be charged with cultural appropriation. he's at least eight shades lighter. the albino community may be writing letters, laura. >> laura: the jennifer anniston does she ever age? she looks great. >> she looks fantastic. >> laura: she looks beautiful. >> we're always concerned about the relations between police and the communities they protect. a case in new york i think may have gone a bit too far.

last monday, during the west indian day parade in brooklyn, a uniformed onduty officer. >> laura: we video. >> a woman began twirking on the cop. and the cop joins in on the act. this is, laura, not the first time one of these incidents occurred during this parade. believe it or not this has happened multiple times. here's a cop dancing with a man during a pride parade in 2015. then footage from the west indian parade from 2011. nypd investigated this incident but we're not sure if the cop was actually disciplined.in should have been. i think this is outrageous. >> laura: what about the feminists? >> that first video goes on and on, five minutes. he's really into it. it's indecent, i'm sorry, the cop shouldn't be indecent, the woman has nothing on virtually. >> laura: and there's children around. >> if you want to show offensive

respect in the community, you can't be getting the v.i.p. treatment here in the middle of the street. it's horrible. v.i.p. room treatment. >> laura: what kind of treatment is that? >> i'm not going there. >> laura: but some one, the new york post, posted that video. >> they did. >> laura: i thought it was joke. i said this must be a "saturday night live" skit. maybe this is why they're getting all that cold water thrown them. t>> discipline and decorum required. >> laura: i'm told this is it. we have to talk about joe biden. >> yes. >> laura: on wednesday he went on stephen colbert to make light of his issues on the trail. >> you called yourself a gaffe machine. you have confused new hampshire for vermont, said mlk and bobby kennedy were assassinated in the late '70s, assured us i'm not going nuts. followup question, are you going nuts? [laughing]

show is becausein i'mame on the not. [ laughing ] >> here's the problem. if the gaffes were ending, you could laugh it off.he but today biden was confused about who was the last president was. and charlotte was where the supremacist. >> i got assault weapons banned for ten years, had to be renewed for hanging chads. the last president said i won't reauthorize it. i never thought i'd see what i saw in charlotte.wo i doubt you ever thought you'd see what happened in charlotte. charlesville in 2017. >> i feel bad for joe biden. last night at that cnn forum the eyes started bleeding. and now what's happening is the media is asking for his health records, saying it's been 11 years -- >> laura: if you blow your nose too hard, my mother would say you're going to pop your brain. maybe that's what happened. >> global warming, the pressure

of the warming on his head. >> laura: i have a soft spot for biden. >> he's a nice man. i'm going back to new orleans now. >> laura: raymond, hang tough. coming up, you may think that biden or warren is trump's top contender. but you might be wrong. a special edition of worst in media reveals the trueen answer next. - in the last year, there were three victims

>> laura: trump's real opponent 2020 isn't joe biden, warren, or even mayor pete. it's the media. and tonight's work worst the media, i'll tell you what these liberal loons masquerading as t news anchors are doing to take him down. jeffrey here, former cnn buntributor, and joining me is adriana cohen. panel, let's begin with today's jobs numbers. the u.s. added 130,000 jobs in august, slightly lower than expected, but if you watch some of the other networks today, you would have thought a full-blown germany style recessionve was going to hit on monday. >> some find cracking in the u.s. economy. >> the numbers are showing warning signs. >> some would say these strong

job knobs, this is going to contribute to oh, jeez, maybe we're slowing down. >> not good news. >> laura: they said the jobs numbers sharply missed expectations. lester holt, i fixed the tweet arfor you. even the "new york times" didn't stretch it as far as they did. here's the facts. national unemployment, low at 3.7%.re black unemployment, hit a record low. the feds say they aren't predicting alo recession soon. jeff, how discredits will it be for the media if trump wins again in 2020 despite the herculian efforts to downplay who is clearly the best economy in the g7 and probably the globe? >> this is going to be a problem for them. the pattern here, they do two things in the media. one, they will report something that's flatly untrue, and just carry that string out, like the trump russia collusion.

two, in the example you gave today, journalism by omission. the story that you are talking about right this minute, is when i checked a few minutes ago, not on the front page of the "washington post." it was on the front page of the "wall street journal" and the p "new york times" had it well down under other news. this is what they do. what is important, they hit on this, when they said the public is on to this thing and it's backfiring. last night i gave a speech in allentown, pennsylvania conservative group, the lehigh valley, um, tea party group. and when i was introduced it was noted about my departure from cnn, they cleared me spontaneously. this has nothing to do with me. they're so worked up and energized what they see as the president's treatment of the media, this is backfiring. for a fact. >> laura: what happened in the town hall at cnn that might be

just wrapping up now, on climate change. and cnn gave the democrats multiple assists during the week, to bolster theirhe talking points on the warming planet. watch. >> we'll cross a massive tipping point, if the world warms more than 1.5 degrees. we've warmed up the planet one degree celsius. >> seeing the effects of climate change as a powerful atlantic hurricane, sitting right now off the coast of florida. >> we are seeing more intense storms, more frequently that are more complicated by the effects of climate change. >> laura: that's just completely unproven and we had a phenomenal nasa scientist on the podcast another one on the show this week, that blew that outs of the water. sorry about that, chris. adriana, i couldn't tell, which ones were the candidates and which ones are the journalists here? e

>> the so-called journalists are putting out the talking points pushing the political narrative. it isn't supposed to be that way. bernie sanders, elizabeth warren, the democratic field is pushing this disastrous green new deal which isn't about climate, it's truly about a big government takeover of our lives. think about it, energy is produced by everything we do. if they sound the alarm and say the world is going end in 12 years, like alexandria ocasio-cortez, we need to make drastic measures, they want to destroy tense of millions of jobs. the science isn't proven. hurricanes and big storms took place prior since the beginning of mankind, prior to the industrialal revolution. for the climate alarmists, most aren't scientists, look at ocasio-cortez, we're letting a

former bartender a few years ago take our country on the path of destroying the fossil fuel industry?rm it's a joke and it's dangerous. it goes to show she's actually the de facto leader of the party. >> laura: we said that inea january any would be who dismisses her, is playing a fool's errand, she's as much of a thought leader of the democrat party they have. panel, thank you very much. and when we come back, the media, they don't want you to get triggered by much. but you'll see they will get triggered by something we're going to show you at the end of the show. democrats are fretting about the climate change, our country's real threat, china, is is on the move. mike pillsbury with a new warning from the secretary of defendant. stay there. by the strolle♪s
