3:00 am
well. they are putting that stuff in everything. jillian: rather interesting. rob: doesn't sound very good. jillian: no, it doesn't. thanks for joining us this morning. "fox & friends" busy news day. it starts right now. have a good day. ♪ ♪ whoa, whoa ♪ always a good time ♪ brian: today at the same time always a good time. are you ready for another investigation that's dominate our lives? ainsley: oh my goodness. fall is supposed to be. today is rus rosh hashanah. steve: wake me. last today is the last day of september. ainsley: september 30th. steve: news is starting on monday morning last day of
3:01 am
september with this. ainsley: get this. there is a new push to see you lens president trump's personal attorney. brian: we all got the letter. the biden campaign is accusing rudy giuliani spreading debunk conspiracy theories in the wake of the whistleblower complaint release so they have taken action. steve: griff jenkins joins us live from washington, d.c. with this order from the campaign. apparently, griff, it sounds like if somebody is going to put rudy on. we had him on our show on friday. they need to have a campaign surrogate to counter whatever he says, right? griff: yes. just to be clear fox has not confirmed that we have this letter. so much has happened since literally last night and it starts with the president trying to get out there. look, he wants to meet with his accuser. he said he tweeted. he wants to meet not only with his accuser. additionally want to meet not only with my accuser and present second and third hand information but also the person who gave this information largely incorrect to the whistleblower.
3:02 am
was this person spying on the u.s. president? big consequences. congress wants to meet with the whistleblower as well. house intel chairman adam schiff telling "60 minutes" there is an agreement. >> do you expect the testimony of the whistleblower? >> absolutely. >> already has an agreement with the whistleblower that he will testify? >> we have agreement that he or she will testify, yes. steve: now this as the daily beast and "new york times" first report that letter you are talking about to the major networks asking them not to book giuliani on their air. they write this in the letter. quote, giving rudy giuliani valuable time on your air to push these lies in the first place is a disservice to your offic audience and disserve to journalism. the letter is signed by former obama communications director anita dunn and kate beddingfield. rugd was thought full force yesterday. >> this is not about getting joe biden in trouble proving
3:03 am
donald trump was framed by the democrats. griff: adam schiff says there will be hearings and depositions this week and says there is no timeline for this inquiry. guys? steve: that's right. griff, thank you very much. also while yesterday adam schiff said they were, you know, they essentially had a deal to get the whistleblower to come in, the whistleblower's attorney sent out a tweet last night that said there is no deal with congress reached at this point. the discussions are ongoing. trying to work out all the details. ainsley: rudy giuliani tweeted this i can't blind how blind our media has become they are blindly using a prosecutor who who corruptly dismissed the cases against biden's son and his corrupt company. there was no investigation. where's the report? use your common sense for those who haven't lost it
3:04 am
bribery is offering anything of value, 1.2 billion critical loan guarantee in exchange for official action. firing the prosecutor corrupt or or not no is investigating your son. bragging biden admits it. and if you need help on whether he knew about son plenty of. brian: those who thought he was going to keep a low profile oops you are wrong. ainsley: tell a network don't book someone what are they going to do? book him. brian: was that okay with the biden camp read one of his tweets i don't know if we violated the proclamation. brad parscale running everything twump 2020 related tweeted this out can we "moofl of on tv hoaxes. wait, who would do the interviews? oh, i got it. so this whole thing started when peter schweizer, the first time i ever heard of it anyway was when peter schweizer wrote his bookened talked about how conflicted
3:05 am
the powerful in washington were and how they are invested in various causes and country around the globe. one of which was hunter biden he doesn't say 50,000. he says $85,000 a month with no energy experience gets on the board of a ukrainian energy company where the sitting vice president of the united states was told by the president, president obama can you handle the stabilization of ukraine after the invasion and capture of crimea? steve: joe, you are going to be my point person on that. peter schweizer was with mark levin over the weekend talking about how appropriate it is to look into the bidens. watch. >> ukraine is one of those countries that is all sorts of problems, one of those problems is corruption. and it's one of those countries where you have a political class in the united states which sort of feasts off of opportunities to enrich themselves in countries like ukraine. these are legitimate issues for a president to raise.
3:06 am
and if the, you know, members of a family of the vice president of the united states are self-enriching and engaged in potentially criminal behavior, at a minimum corrupt behavior it, ought to be looked at. and the notion that somehow, you know, he should take a hands off approach is not legitimate to even mention biden's name? is ridiculous. steve: one of the things that we have now and the democrats have regarding their impeachment push is the fact that they have the transcript released, which happened a up pell days ago. it was revealed over the weekend that apparently mitch mcconnell himself urged the white house, mr. president, if you feel that this can get you off the hook or show people exactly what happened, do it. so mitch was one of the people behind the push. ainsley: encouraging him to release the transcript? steve: right. ainsley: there is no quid pro quo. i will do this for you do this for me. if you look at what joe biden did bragging on video about his quid pro quo. steve: either fire the guy or you don't get the money.
3:07 am
ainsley: fighter guy or you don't get the u.s.s. dollar taxpayer money. brian: the issue is the president releases the transcript of the call. then you wonder will there be other punish pushes to release other transcripts of other calls. the answer is it's already been done. trying to get a call the president made with vladimir putin that's supposed to be obviously secure call which other people listened on. so nancy pelosi is on "60 minutes" doing every show talking about how she is going through with this very prayerfully and it doesn't make her happy to be doing. this she talked about how the president heard that she was going to be pushing for an impeachment and called her. listen. >> he told me it was perfect. there was nothing in the call. but i know what was in the call. i mean, it was in the public domain. he didn't even know that it was wrong. it was wrong for a president to say that he wants you -- another head of state to
3:08 am
create something negative about his possible political opponents to his own advantage. we could not ignore what the president did. he gave us no choice. i always said we will follow the facts where they take us and when we see them, we will be ready and we are ready. brian: right. amazing that she ready for the facts before she got the call. she slipped there. there is a sense this whole thing is a political setup. i new what was in your call before you released the transcripts. she quickly corrects herself it was in the public domain. it was not. no one knew that call. ainsley: she also just said in that comment it's wrong for him to call a head of state and create something negative about your possible political opponent. he wasn't saying i'm going to create something negative. look into this and see if there is any facts. if there is any truth to what's out there. steve: to what happened in 2016.
3:09 am
ainsley: correct. he didn't say create something negative. steve: crowd strike that is to say. one other thing nancy pelosi said over the weekend, she said she was down in texas at tribune fest. she said the house is worth losing if trump is imeechesd. lindsey graham was on over the weekend. he was on cbs, face the nation, among other things that he said. he said the salem witch trial there was more due process in that case than with the president. and he said this regarding this being a setup. >> this whole thing is a sham. i can't believe we are talking about impeaching the president based on an accusation based on arizona. whhearsay. why did they take this whistleblower to tell the story. the transcript does not match the complaint. what's going on here? why did they change the rules about a whistleblower you can use hearsay when you used to not just weeks before the complaint? who are these people and what are they up to? you know, this is -- mueller wasn't a hitch wouldn't but this is salem witch trials
3:10 am
have more due process than this. how do you know she is a witch? somebody told me she is a witch. brian: he was fired up. he had a chance to spend this weekend with a president. he golfed a little bit. he is also a law enforcement he says i want to see what's in the transcript. when he sees what's in the transcript margaret brethren nathaniel and others to say things as fact and there is not. no difference between the transcript and complaint? there is a huge difference. you could drive a truck through them. number two, he went on to say somebody changed the rules for whistleblowers between 2018 and 2019. steve: that's right. brian: if they try to bring this vote in 2018. they would go you are not a whistleblower. you didn't hear anything directly. ainsley: second hand. steve: talk to sean davis in the federalist about this. somehow in the intel community, ig office, they changed the threshold for whistleblowers. you used to have to have -- witness. ainsley: first hand account. steve: now it's second, it's third. you have heard the story
3:11 am
from somebody else. who exactly in the intel community decided to do that coordination. a lot of republicans on capitol hill -- ainsley: remind me of that children's game telephone i tell one thing to your ear and by the end of the classroom totally different message. brian: can you imagine getting impeached by somebody whose dignity is secret who never heard allegedly what you can. no way a whistleblower keep aanonymity while accusing a president high crimes and misdemeanors. that should not fly when they are not a witness to it. steve steve when you apply for whistleblower protection then you are given the protection. and your anonymity is what they worry about. here, the lawyer sent the letter to the house committee last book and suggested there are individuals, probably news organizations, who were willing to pay $50,000 for this person's identity. ainsley: was that law changed with this in mind, planning to do something like this? steve: that's what some
3:12 am
republicans think. brian: hurt, jillian. how are you this morning. jillian: great, how are you? overnight a suicide bomber attacks the u.s. military airstrip in somalia. a burst of gunfire could be heard across the base after the bombing suggesting an ongoing attack. al shabaab has taken responsibility. no word yet whether anyone was hurt. extremists also launched a second attack aimed at you were mean military targets. reports say that attack was unsuccessful. also breaking right now. a manhunt intensifies for extremely dangerous escaped inmate as three others are captured overnight. lawrence lee ran away from cops as the other men were being arrested at a hotel in north carolina. they were on the run since sunday morning when they overpowered ohio jail guards with a homemade knife. there is a $2,500 reward for lee's arrest. terrifying moments on board a packed plane when an engine malfunctions. this shocking video showing
3:13 am
the united airlines engine shaking in the sky. pilots turning around and landing back in denver. take a look at this photo taken by a passenger showing a metal panel peeled off the exposed engine. airline says passengers took a different plane to older and no one was hurt. now to nfl weak four action. the saints shot down the cowboys second straight win without drew brees. new orleans winning 12-10. beating the lyons 34-30. patriots also remain unbeaten surviving puzzle 16-10. and take a look at this couple with love -- will love the bills for better or force worse i should say. they just tied the knot on the 50-yard line with former defensive tackle keil williams officiating. they had their first date and got engaged at the stadium. congrats to them. steve: a day they will never forget. ainsley: that's pretty cool.
3:14 am

3:18 am
steve: well, the controversy over the whistleblower complaint deepening as a new report claims the intel community revised its whistleblower complaint form, removing the requirement of direct, firsthand knowledge of the alleged wrongdoing. sean davis of the federalist broke this story and joins us now to explain from national. explain that to us. >> good morning. steve: you used to have to have seen it with your own two eyes or heard it with your own two ears. when did they change it? >> the changes to eliminate the requirement for first hand information in whistleblower complaints happened between may 2018 and august 2019. and it used to be required that you had to offer direct, personal, firsthand knowledge or else this particular complaint, which is known as an urgent concern complaint would be dismissed by the intelligence community inspector general that was changed some time in the last year. when we asked the dni and ic
3:19 am
for information who changed it when and why they straight up refused to answer that question. steve: that's part of the intel community. they keep a lot of secrets. don't they? >> they certainly do. but when it comes to public documents about public concern about public impeachment trials, they need to be transparent. steve: let's take a look at the updated version of the complaint form from august of 2019. you say -- they say: i know about the information i'm disclosing here and i have direct and personal knowledge or i heard about it from others. that's the bottom line right there. what do you think about that? i heard about it from others because that seems to be the pattern that this particular whistleblower followed. >> right. and if you look at the underlying statute that governs how whistleblower complaints are processed and investigated. the inspector general has pretty wide latitude and discretion to set those policies and until recently, the icig said you need to have direct, firsthand evidence. and as we know with this
3:20 am
particular anti-trump complainant there was no firsthand evidence much of the firsthand or second hand evidence this person offered was false. steve: one thing that's troubling you is that the intel chair, adam schiff tweeted out information that was very same larr to the whistleblower's complaint but it was two weeks before the whistleblower's complaint was made public. here is one of his tweets. trump is withholding vital military aid to ukraine while his personal lawyer seeks help from the ukraine government to investigate his political opponent. it doesn't take a stable genius to see the magnitude of this conflict or how destructive it is to our national security. what do you make of that? >> i think it's really curious. we were told that the congressional committee didn't get this whistleblower complaint until september. but when you look at the complaints, which the president declassified and released last week, it was dated august 12th and it was addressed to adam schiff himself. so it certainly seems as if
3:21 am
schiff knew a lot more about what was going on than he let on which raises some fairly serious and troubling questions whether he was part of this effort and perhaps even coordinating it long before anyone else knew what was going on. steve: hold on. you are saying you are concerned there could have been coordination between adam schiff and the intel community? >> i think it's very much concerning that schiff, based on his own statements before these details were ever released seemed to be read in on them raises those questions and he and his entire staff and those in the intel community and in the white house who are part of this complaint need to start answering questions about that. steve: interesting stuff. let's see where it goes from here. sean davis co-founder of the federal list. sean, thank you very much. >> thank you. steve: 6:21 here in new york city. up next, thousands of patriots following in the footsteps of america's brave tunnel 2 towers 5 k run including our own rob schmitt. he will take us behind the scenes on a big weekend ♪ born free ♪

3:37 am
i just want everybody in the public to digest that for a moment. and specifically for the cop haters out there who don't understand what it's like to go to work for 30 and $40,000 a year understanding that one of your colleagues, like the hero in texas well by the way that is going to turn up dead. and it's tough. it's really tough to even talk about. brian: i don't want to get off too much. i consider ice law enforcement, don't you? >> you are damn right, brian. brian: how many ice hater would he say have. >> ironic you said that i was getting ready this morning. i thought that same thing all of these sleaze bags up on capitol hill who continue to attack our uniform, our cbp, ice people. all these people down here enforcing our laws at the border. it's just a stain on this country. it's really, really gross. you are an embarrassment, you really are. and to piggy back on that. that's so disheartening the way our law enforcement officers are treated. but also, look at this

3:39 am
democrats and their sicko fasycophantic. they are panicking because ig report is about to come out and expose a massive government spying operation against donald trump. listen, here is the key take away in collusion with foreign governments. right? that's why they are panicking. they are panicking because you have what the obama administration did is 1,000 times worse than what they are alleging donald trump did. let me ask you a few questions here. when do we get transcripts of the obama calls with the iranians. remember the calls, brian they swore didn't happen and when they were outed they did happen. brian: why can't we read those letters? >> right, the press conference at the state department, all that file was kind of deleted? when do we get their conversations with other foreign governments? when do we get their conversations with the united kingdom. we know there were people in the united kingdom that passed intel. what about the ukrainians.
3:40 am
politico reported about their collusion. what about their collusion with russian spies that people, the democrats hired to spy on trump already admitted. when do we get those conversations? the answer is never. brian: dan, the president has to say no. this is it. that was the one conversation. >> yes, he has to say no. brian: no from here on in. that's for the next president and the next president. do you not get anything more. >> the first job of the president right now is to protect the presidency. the white house counsel and others have to draw the line. this is one of the sleaziest members of congress, adam schiff. he went up to the american people in a public hearing where people could look at a public transcript and literally lied about it and then tried to cover his tracks and say oh, it's just parody. listen, this isn't "saturday night live." it's not leave it to beaver. this is a nationally televised important hearing and he lied. he is a liar, this guy. don't disclose anything to this guy. brian: nobody brought up the fact that he made up a phony dialogue leading you into
3:41 am
this consequential hearing in fronts of the dni. >> he made up a firestone dialogue and before the firestonphonydialogue he lied ae consequence of the call for days there was quid pro quo. there was a favor about this ukrainian military. that is not what the transcript said. he just made it up. and by the way, i think this was a huge mistake releasing this transcripts because of what you just said. the precedent for the presidency is now dangerous. that was a tongue twister. it's terrible. now, is every president in the future going to have to -- every conversation he is having with a foreign leader is going to be monitored for the opposition political party to have it released to humiliate that foreign leader later? can i say one more thing in the every time the word favor is mentioned in a foreign policy conversation with the president the opposition party gets to expose it? then can you forget international relations from this pointed on. no one is ever going to talk to a foreign leader. steve: just remember, dan, the initial reports were
3:42 am
that the whistleblower sought protection because the president of the united states had made a promise to another world leader or other world leaders that was so serious. and then we find out once the transcript is released that that promise really wasn't there. the quid pro quo wasn't really there per se in those contact words. none of that was true. promise, what, that he was going to give kim jong un the nuclear codes. i'm being hyperabolish, of course. we find out later that it's just donald trump trying to get to the bottom of corruption we saw in the last election. the media should be thanking trump for doing the job they didn't do, trying to uncover the known malfeasance between ukrainians and u.s. officials. we saw in the last election that most media outlets have completely, entirely ignored. it's a disgrace what's happening right now. they have completely flipped the script. is he trying to get to the bottom of this, thank god. steve: his new book is

3:48 am
oversight. they want to be able to, you know, the businesses to flourish and to do that they come to texas. people moving in really helps donald trump's cause. brian: i guess we will see. some people feel differently. we know, this the president has a pretty high approval rating still among those who voted for him the first time. 87% of republicans according to the q poll approve 6 his job performance. 52% overall according to the university of texas. now, in the last election he beat hillary clinton 52-43. people are looking at with ted cruz getting a 1.5% win over beto o'rourke as something that is a bellwether or a canary in a coal mine. what do you say to that? >> i will tell you what. that was a good race by beto but his flame has fizzled out. he can't even get in the top five. i think he is third in texas behind elizabeth warren and

joe biden. trump goes to liberal el paso, texas. has a rally of over 20,000 people. elizabeth warren comes to the liberal, you know, strong hold of texas austin, she can't even get 1500 or 2,000 people. people are still excited about donald trump. they like what he stands for. he has kept every one of his political promises and the democrats really, they don't have anything to offer tha that -- they are not the flavor of texas. they want to raise our taxes. we are not for that. brian: do you know there has been five republican retirements already. many of which in competitive districts in texas. some say it's because the state is changing and they don't want the challenge. >> well, we will hold on to those seats. as a matter of fact, i'm going to predict that with the candidates that they put up, i think we'll take back the house. i think nancy pelosi is going to be out of a job. like i said, they don't have anything to offer us. you know, they want to take away our guns.

we are not for that they want abortion on demand, kill our babies. we are not for that texas leads as a nation in cattle. the green new deal wants to take away our cattle. they want to shut down our oil and gas production? really? they want to throw the border wide open and give free stuff to everybody. people in texas are not for any of that there is no reason we can vote for the democrats in this next election. brian: beto o'rourke is chanting we will take down the wall. i don't know how that will resonate. >> it's not gonna happen. write it down. they were wrong last time. they think texas is going to be close. trump won by 9 or 10 points he could easily double that. brian: tamg this in our vcrs. we will bring you back. thanks so much. >> thank you, brian. god bless. brian: coming out straight ahead as we close out the hour on this monday.

to meet with the whistleblower. and the person who leaked information to the whistleblower over his conversation with the president of ukraine. brian: all right. it comes as joe biden's campaign launches a new push to see you lens president trump's personal attorney. do you believe this? ainsley: do you believe that? sending letter to the networks. more on the growing controversy. we are hearing the networks got letters saying please don't have rudy giuliani on. brian: they didn't mention your name so we can talk to you. >> thankfully i'm not on that list. i will talk to you more about that in a second. we have a packed morning. the president talking as you heard steve mention about this idea. he wants to hear and see and meet his accuser. let me take to you twitter. the president talking about this idea that, listener, i am an american, therefore, i deserve every right and privilege that other americans deserve. he says this: like every american i deserve to meet my accuser especially when this accuser, the so-called whistleblower represented a
4:02 am
perfect conversation with a foreign leader in a totally inaccurate and fraud length way. then schiff, that would be california congressman adam schiff, made up what i actually said by lying to congress. the president also added he wants to meet the person who presented the second and third hand information and illegally gave it to the so-called whistleblower. speaking of, adam schiff says that whistleblower is ready to talk. >> do you expect the testimony of the whistleblower? >> absolutely. >> your committee already has an agreement with the whistleblower that he will testify? >> we have agreement that he or she will testify, yes. >> adam schiff on "60 minutes" with scott pelly. you mentioned it, guys, joe biden doesn't want rudy giuliani out there on national television networks talking about this ukraine controversy. a statement saying this. giving rudy giuliani valuable time on your air to push these lies in the first place is a disservice to your audience and a disservice to journalism.

4:04 am
to appear before a closed session of the house intel committee. he, of course, is the person who handled the whistleblower complaint. said it rose to an urgent concern. and so i'm sure the republicans are going to be asking questions like hey, when exactly did you change it from you had to have firsthand knowledge to you could have heard somebody talking about it and that rises to the level of a whistleblower. ainsley: used to be they wouldn't investigate. you weren't considered a whistleblower if you were second hand. if you got second hand information. you had to hear it directly. in this case they changed the law and that's why this whistleblower didn't listen to the conversation. wasn't in the room but still reporting on what he heard was said. steve: and we had sean davis from the federalist with us about 45 minutes ago. and he said he was troubled by the fact that some of adam schiff's tweets from two weeks before we heard from the whistleblower sound exactly like what the whistleblower said. so, his worry, his concern is there was coordination
4:05 am
between some people that we don't know about publicly. brian: by the way, jerry nadler has done so terribly with the mueller probe. post game to the mueller probe no one thought was necessary. they are giving adam schiff's committee. ainsley: intel. brian: instead of jerry nadler's committee the first shot at investigating what would be impeachment. meanwhile steven miller was ready for combat when he went on with chris wallace yesterday. he was very confident in saying everyone has got this backwards when it comes to the whistleblower. >> the president is the whistleblower here. the president of the united states is the whistleblower. and this individual is a saboteur trying to undermine a democratically elected government. the president correctly pointed out that the behavior of this individual is close to a spy. i don't know hot individual is. all i know is at some point, chris, we have to focus on the real scandal. which is three years of deep state sabotage.
4:06 am
brian: it's got to be frustrating for the president. because people in his own midst seem to be very comfortable turning on us. and if you felt that conversation wasn't appropriate, why don't you become the whistleblower? why are you somebody that goes and whispers into it, according to the "new york times," cia male and whisper to him and he says five or six other people heard the call and were disturbed by it. and the president's actions are putting into secure server is something prove that even the president's people knew it was wrong. no. there is another counter narrative to that and if adam schiff wanted to be fair and he doesn't, he would have said i can also understand the president feeling a little insecure about his phone calls because some have been shared from vladimir putin to the philippine leader toot australian leader to theresa may and, of course, the mexican leader. steve: what brought things -- changed the components was that the conversation the president had was stored in a super
4:07 am
secret separate computer. and that's where they put the putin conversation, which was a couple of days later and i believe saudi arabian leader conversations as well. so that's why democrats now want to look at those conversations because it was all placed in that place, in that super secret gizmo computer. ainsley: a repository. steve: that was trying to keep everybody's ice away from it. brian: got to be no. for future presidents. can you say the president did the wrong thing and let tout. he wants to be transparent and say i don't see any problem with the ukrainian call. think about the rest of the world. saudi arabian king is maybe talking freely with the president of the united states as in vladimir putin, whatever you think of him and probably not great things if you are like most americans. you think you have a secure conversation. let's get the follow up to the medvedev i can't wait to tell wladimir i don't have
4:08 am
any follow up elections. ainsley: that opens up a can of worms. they can't do that adam schiff now wants to hear every conversation that president trump has had with world leaders. ainsley: h brian: he hasn't said that yet but he will get there. steve: the reason the president released it and we learned over the weekend that mitch mcconnell suggested they release it what was out in the public about the conversation was so different than what happened. and when we saw, you know, there was no clear quid pro quo there, dan bongino says the fact that the white house did relies it could be a problem down the road. >> the first job of the put right now is to protect the presidency the white house counsel and others have to draw the line. this is one of the sleaziest members of congress, adam schiff. every president in the future -- every conversation he is having with a foreign leader is going to be monitored for the opposition political party to have it released to humiliate that foreign leader later? if every time the word favor
4:09 am
is mentioned in a foreign policy conversation with the president, the opposition party gets to expose it, then you can forget international relations from this point on. no one is ever going to talk to a foreign leader. brian: he is not exaggerating. if i was leading another country and i had something candid to ask the president of the united states, i don't know if i would do it in a phone call. how do you even do it. ainsley: you wouldn't, face to face. up people in the room listening. brian: kevin mccarthy the highest ranking republican in the house if all of this rises to the level of impeachment. it probably never would have moved forward had the speaker waited 48 hours to have the transcript. we vote on important things every day. there are certain votes that are different than others. sending men and women off to war is the most difficult vote congress would ever make. having seen the transcripts. having listened to my conference, i haven't heard
4:10 am
one member from any element inside there tell me this rises to impeachment. steve: because the suggestion was that the president -- when we first heard from the whistleblower the news reporting was that the president of the united states made a promise to another world leader that was so disturbing. it was an urgent concern. there was quid pro quo. we did not read that per se in this particular transcript. ainsley: turns out there wasn't quid pro quo here but there was biden thing. rudy giuliani was on the sunday shows and joe biden's campaign is asking all the networks allegedly not to put him on tv. they don't want him on tv because is he talking about joe biden and hunter biden, rudy says i have this affidavit. that guy, that prosecutor that joe biden said you're fired, you better get him fired or i'm not giving you american money, that prosecutor, according to rudy giuliani, he said that the in the affidavit that prosecutor said the u.s. pressured him to resign
4:11 am
because he wasn't willing to drop the case. the case against hunter. brian: against hunter's company, a one he is a board member on mysteriously. ainsley: the oil company. brian: keep in mind if you are running to get the 2020. don't expect anything but impeachment on the stump. if your name is not elizabeth warren or joe biden you will not get any oxygen for your candidacy. it has overwhelmed everything. ainsley: backfire? brian: nancy pelosi is under the impression we will get this done by thanksgiving? are you kidding me? steve: of what year? brian: unbelievable. steve: 7:11 in new york city and jillian joins us with a fox news alert. jillian: get right to this. overnight a suicide bomber attacks the u.s. military airstrip in somalia. a burst of gunfire could be heard across the base after the bombing suggesting an ongoing attack. al-shabaab has taken responsibility. no americans were hurt or killed. extremists also launched a second attack aimed at european military targets. that attack was

(door bell rings) iit's ohey.s better this is amazing. with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis, are you okay? even when i was there, i never knew when my symptoms would keep us apart. so i talked to my doctor about humira. i learned humira can help get, and keep uc under control when other medications haven't worked well enough. and it helps people achieve control that lasts. so you can experience few or no symptoms. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb,
4:17 am
hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. be there for you, and them. ask your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, control is possible. brian: as the firestorm grows in washington over the whistleblower complaint. new report claims that the intel committee revised the form that allowed the complaint to happen. sean davis of the federalist broke this story and joined us earlier to explain the story. >> changes to eliminate the requirements for firsthand information in whistleblower complaints happened between may 2018 and august 2019.
4:18 am
and it used to be required that you had to offer direct, personal firsthand evidence. changed some time in the last year. as we know if w. this particular anti-trump complainant there was no firsthand evidence. brian: wow, here to react is minute of the house judiciary committee congressman doug collins. congressman, why was that changed? why didn't anyone know about this. >> maybe it was more obvious why it was changed. there is a lot of questions still need to be answered. not having firsthand knowledge something as important as phone call between two world leaders if you look at the twam whistleblower complaint. in is not about what whistleblowers normally used for this. is really a disagreement over policy. a disagreement over what they thought the tone was in a phone call when you look at the transcript it's not there. it if you go back the whistleblower complaint was august 14th, i believe, august 28th go. back at and look at adam
4:19 am
schiff heading the ramrod investigation. he put a tweet out basically saying what the whistleblower complaint said this was a month ahead of time. i'm beginning to wonder if there was not more communication here. brian: i thought this was a slip. nancy pelosi on "60 minutes" last night was asked did the president call you? yes the president called me before she came out with the impeachment inquiry. he said the letter was perfect release the transcript the call was perfect. she said to him i knew what was in the letter. and then she said she paused it was in the public domain. number one it was not in the public domain and the transcript had not been released yet. how could she possibly know? >> i don't think she did, the problem when you keep telling enough stories it's hard to remember what you told or not told or what you are trying to keep this is why i said the speaker abused her power in this regard we are starting the impeachment inquiry a gave it to her buddy adam schiff who ho has been dishonest with the american people from the get-go on russia. why that's important for
4:20 am
everybody to know impeachment inquiry would afford due process and make sure both sides are heard. make sure the president and the minority have the rights that are not present in the hearings currently. this is not america when you simply can ramrod one side of a hearing without allowing the person who is being accused or even the minority to have more rights. if it was a true inquiry, she would put it on the floor and make heir members vote for it so in the end we would have a process that happened under clinton and nixon where both sides are represented. this is just not fair. the american people will see through. this. brian: it's not the way it's done. your committee should be the one hearing this judiciary not adam schiff's committee nadler proven to be totally inept and think schiff win over the american people when i don't think can he win over the inside of an ice cream shop. nancy pelosi said. this this is a very sad time for our country. there is no joy in this. we must be somber and prayerful and pursue the facts prayerful to make a decision as this.
4:21 am
is that sincere now prayerful? it doesn't appear to be, don't follow the words. follow the actions. if this was so somber and serious. she would do as was done in the past have a i have straightforward process where every side is represented not her partisan side evident for three years now. brian: are the republicans still behind the president in the house? >> yes. we are seeing that look at this crypt. when we heard what was in the transcript over last weekend. a lot of mexico saying what happened here? they were hearing he mentioned biden 8 times. all this stuff. and then when you looked at the transcript, you begin to say okay, again, here is another desperate attempt. they had all those hearings in judiciary and now is where we are at now. >> he basically said the same thing on hannity according to steven miller. thanks so much for joining us. i appreciate it congressman collins. >> brian, take care. brian: you got it. student loan debt now hitting the highest amount ever. over a trillion dollars.

unending streams of money, the cost of tuition has skyrocketed. and we have told the culture that borrowing money for student loans is no big deal. now we have this epic plague sitting on the young people of america. and some of the old people in america. and it's a problem. ainsley: well, if you look at some of the stats. the numbers are staggering. $26,900. that's the average student loan of a graduate of a public four year school. 32,600 for graduates of height of nonprofit four-year schools. is it worth it if you know you are going to graduate with $30,000 in debt. should did you go to college and take out a loan? >> no. you don't need to take out a loan to start with the average tuition to the average instate school right now is at right around the $10,000 mark. the average tuition for the average private school is around the $30,000 mark. that's per year. $10,000 is $833 a month. you can make $1,500 a month delivering pizzas, live in your momma's basement and go

4:34 am
booked? why do doesn't joe biden follow. ainsley: do campaigns have the power and the ability to tell a network who they can and can't book? no. steve: let's talk to newt gingrich, former speaker of the house, fox news contributor and he writes a few newsletter available at gingrich 360.com. mr. speaker, good morning, why do you think joe biden's team wants rudy off tv? >> i think they are panic-stricken because rudy giuliani can talk as a lawyer about what happened with hunter biden getting $600,000 a yeary ukrainian natural gas company when his only credential is being the vice president's son and the vice president himself being on vape saying that he basically blackmailed the ukrainian government with a billion dollars in u.s. aid which he was going to take away if they didn't fire the prosecutor looking at his son's company. so, i think they are -- every time they see giuliani
4:35 am
on tv, they know that he is not only helping trump but doing, i think, substantial damage to joe biden's candidacy and i suspect they are just desperate. i mean, it's actually pretty weird for a presidential campaign to think that they can dictate to the networks who they are allowed to have on. i mean, even incumbent presidents whether it's obama or bush or, you know, trump, don't really believe they can pressure the networks about individual getzs. it tells you how panic sticken the biden team is. brian: i was very glad at the last minute that biden has okayed your appearance so we can keep you booked because i was going to have to cancel you. a couple things going to take place. tell me how damaging you think it can be. when pompeo gets subpoenaed. when rudy gets subpoenaed. when they start asking for the vladimir putin conversation. when all this stuff goes behind closed doors front and center. not only will the swamp all 2020 nominees but it could swamp the president.

4:48 am
conversation the president had with the president of the ukraine. posed that to the american people like the president did something wrong. one, the president is obligated by the constitution to call for inquiry or investigation if he thinks there is criminal conduct by a former vice president and i don't think if the guy is running for office or not. it doesn't make any difference. and then they attack rudy giuliani. if there's a whistleblower here, it's not this clown that wrote this document. the whistleblower is giuliani. he has been talking about the biden stuff since last year. since january of this year. giuliani has been talking about it. and everybody ignored it. steve: well, and now the biden camp is saying hey to the networks you shouldn't have rudy on alone. if you do you if you are going to book him you should have a campaign surrogate on to answer whatever he says. >> listen, they don't want giuliani on because giuliani knows this stuff better than anybody. right now he is in

prosecutorial mode. and keep in mind, people say he shouldn't be involved? he was the -- he was the counsel for the president of the united states during the biggest witch-hunt in u.s. history. it's his job to investigate the allegations that were talked about with regard to ukraine and russia. that's his job. he was supposed to conduct investigations. to defend the president. and during those investigations, during his inquiries, this is the stuff that came out. steve: what do you make of we have had a couple guests on today who talked about how a couple of weeks before we heard from the whistleblower, saw the complaint, that adam schiff actually tweeted out things that sounded exactly like what the whistleblower eventually would say? >> well, i think you are going to see a couple things. you know, i can't wait for these so-called hearings. because i think you are going to find out there was communications between the

5:11 am
"the new york times" and two reporters in the "wall street journal." this thing was discovered by the mainstream media. how we're suddenly saying how dare the president bring it up. who will castigate for "the new york times" written an article about it and "the wall street journal" written about it in december of 2015, four months before biden goes over there and says, you know, if you don't get rid of him in six hours you're out a billion dollars worth of loan guaranties? this was a massive failure by the obama administration to understand that they had an appearance of impropriety on the vice president's part. yet they continued to let him issue. brian: "new yorker" magazine also. we have to go to news. "new yorker" magazine talks about how everyone in the administration was afraid to bring up the family problems because of the tragedy with beau, hunter is saying how bad this looks, who will tell him. but they had a "don't ask, don't tell" policy. doesn't mean they didn't know then before donald trump was even running for president? >> they knew then.

biden is the guy who ultimately is responsible for this. he knew about his son is going over there the son is going over to ukraine twice a year. the son admitted he talked to his father about it. the father says i hope you know what you're doing. the vice president should have said i know this is big moneymaker. i'm in charge of anti-corruption companies, you're on the board after stinky company, get off. brian: maybe like john kerry's stepson did. >> so stinky that christopher heinz, john kerry's stepson i've been in a partnership with you hunter biden and devin archer. i'm out of here. this is stinky. brian: karl rove has to come up with that in word count. steve: thanks for joining us live. ainsley: thank you. ainsley: from heated pools to private jets we have this year's list of top climate hypocrites. tammy bruce helps us reveal this year's winner.

everywhere, leonardo dicaprio one big climate apostle had a new year's eve in cydey harbor, flew all the friends on airplanes, flew to vegas for a second new year's eve. we need to work on climate. we take that seriously but don't say this is existential threat where all of us have to stop eating red meat, not fly or use fossil fuels. the messages that their lives are more important, right? that our lives can be adjusted. that their work matters. our work doesn't. that is what we take issue with. steve: let's take a look, in as sending order, the top four climate hypocrite award winners. number four, the obamas. number three, climate conference attendees. number two, aoc, the number one winner is al for. gore. let's talk a little bit about

the obamas. how did they make the list. >> talk about climate conference attendees, in one case they went to a summit, used 14 car motorcade, multiple airplanes going. at one point the obamas were using a separate airplane to go to a vacation to fly their dog n i love dogs. if i had that money i would use a private plane for all the pets. this is what they were doing. and we want, you know the president of the united states to be safe. that is totally normal but the issue here is the condemnation of others who shouldn't be doing x, y, or z, but we're allowed to do it because we're more important. ainsley: what about the climate conference attendees? who are these people? >> celebrities, leonardo dicaprio of the world. certain politicians. steve: like aoc. >> like aoc. people from all over the world, who tell all of us that we need to stop doing certain things but then they fly in and i always

greatest game of telephone in the world. let me break this down to you. this whole thing is very, very simple. the democrats know they cannot win in 2020. they tried this before with a russian hoax. they tried this with the kavanaugh impeachment. trying to get kavanaugh again. every time they can create some sensational firestorm they do it. you know what? we have the greatest economy in the history of our country. our country is doing phenomenally well. we're getting results on every single front. they know they are not going to win. who will beat him? biden? talking about 700 million women in this country and record players, pocohontas. is poke hadn't taos going to win who lies about native-american ancestry? come on, giles. they are not going to beat him. they know their only change is to try to belittle him, change a conversation from the economy and all the good things that are happening in this country. guys we're going to win again. we're going to win again. mark my words. this will backfire on them.

for anything for real problems? meaning you have a crisis on the southern border. they all go on the longest vacations ever, right? now all of sudden, we think we have another angle where there is possible gotcha for trump. let's everybody stay -- how about adam schiff does his job and legislate for the american people? and if they don't want to. their political system is broken. it is quite frankly exactly why, adam schiff why we need term limits in this country. he is a total disgrace. steve: tell you what. what we have learned in the last 72 hours or so, this whistleblower was able to come forward because apparently the intel community changed the rules where rather than, if you're a whistleblower, you have to witness something with your own two eyes or own two ears. they changed it to, you can simply have heard somebody talking about it. >> coincidentally that happens about a month ago. all of sudden this comes forward. i don't understand the whole concept. how can you hear from somebody

♪ steve: over the weekend a former prime minister of ukraine called on his nation to investigate joe biden's son, hunter biden, and his role on the bored of a ukrainian gas company. brian: yep, the former prime minister saying an investigation is needed, quote, so that it is the eyes can be dotted and the ts can be crossed. so what could an investigation find at this point? steve: our next guest sprint three years investigating the biden's business dealings in ukraine and china. author of secret empire, peter schweizer joins from us tallahassee. peter, good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: we got a statement from the biden camp, regarding this guy's statement, universally discredited conspiracy they're. what do you say about what he
5:46 am
had to say? >> i think the ukrainian officials are right. joe biden is dismissing it as a conspiracy theory. what is a conspiracy theory about his son getting $83,000 a month. we have the banging records. about his son joining this corrupt board where he had no background or expert tease in the country. and his son doing the same thing in china? there is no conspiracy theory here. it is the oldest game in politics which is follow the money and self-enrichment. joe biden just wants these issues to go away. brian: how do you explain that the lutinko, the former prosecutor who got dismissed when the election happened and the comedian took over, he is saying there was no more investigation needed to be done? >> this is the problem. you've got prosecutors an ukrainian officials say contradictory things. what i called for in the beginning our department of justice ought to work with you anian prosecutors figure out
5:47 am
precisely what hunter biden was being paid for. no background in natural gas or energy. no background in ukraine yet he is being paid this large sum of money. the question is why? this occurred while joe biden was vice president of the united states, was appointed by barack obama as point policy person on ukraine. that happened two months before biden got the sweetheart deal. you have a similar thing going on in china. people have a right to know how precisely was the biden family enriched and what did hunter biden give them in return. he was not being paid for his expertise. he was being paid for something. i think we have a right to know what that something is. steve: peter, you know that our correspondent asked joe biden i think about 10 days ago, you know, how often have you spoken to your son about your overseas business dealings, about his business dealings. he said i never talked to him about it? >> yeah. that is pretty remarkable
5:48 am
statement. the problem is he has been contradicted by his own son, hunter, who said that he talked to his father about the burisma deal in ukraine. joe biden's statements also contradicted by hunter biden's chinese partner who told a reporter, when in fact they took the infamous trip on air force two to beijing china, before hunter closed his billion dollar plus deal, chinese company officials say they were introduced to vice president biden by hunter biden. so how that happened without them discussing the business dealings is an absurd stretch. i think what joe biden needs to do is come clean about this stuff. the old ways of sort of just obscuring are not going to work here. this is why we need to have an investigation. brian: george stephanopoulos said sunday the whole china link has been debunked. what do you say? >> it is not true. in fact we're releasing the documents today. what you're seeing in the media with george stephanopoulos and also with the "washington post" is they're taking the biden line, hook, line and sinker.
5:49 am
number one we're releasing adopts. hunter biden was on the board of directors of this chinese company that had $1.5 billion. we're releasing documents related to that $1.5 billion. we're also releasing documents that explain what the american partners, that would be hunter biden and his business partners what their role was and their role was, the chinese wanted to take advantage of their, quote, unquote, networks end quote, in the united states. now what networks are they talking about? these gentlemen are not titans on wall street. i think we know what networks they're talking about. the chinese were very explicit why they struck up this partnership with rosemont seneca partners, this small investment firm very few people heard of, that happened to be headed up by the vice president's son. steve: interesting stuff. we'll await the documents you will release regarding china. peter schweitzer, author of
