special. brian brian he signed a lot of redneck rivera. big man there. ainsley: you signed a lot of your books. brian: i was able to go outside. i said to myself we have to stay away from "fox & friends." it's florida, can we sign outside? will yeah, we were able to do it. this hour referring, to that's rick berry, that's our most valuable patriot. steve: let's listen in ♪ to the ocean white with foam ♪ let me hear you sing ♪ god bless america ♪ ♪ my home sweet home ♪ sing it to me, sing. ♪ god bless america ♪ my home, sweet, mommy.

[cheers and applause] >> god bless you all tonight. god bless america. brian: last night i thought the best line behind the scenes from john rich. john rich went out there, just grabbed his guitar and nailed the open. does this thing flawlessly. i said you are unbelievable. he said brian, this is not a hobby. i had no idea. ainsley: do you need to warm up? so fun. what great life he has. steve: you can go ahead and download fox nation and watch it any time in about an hour and 10 minute program. in the meantime, this is a news channel. let's talk about the news. yesterday it was announced that it sounds like the democrats are going to open up their public hearings. going to start on wednesday. that's going to be the first public hearing. bill taylor the ambassador is probably going to be the first guest. witnesses are by design through the democrats

wanting to build a public case against the president. ainsley: we will be able to watch it all. it will be public. next wednesday. the impeachment process. the impeachment inquiry. brian: if you know the president if there is something obligor on. try to win this run off election for the republican candidate in louisiana. he also let everybody know what he thinks of the whole impeachment process and adam schiff. steve: so you mentioned adam schiff, here he is talking about the open hearings starting next wednesday. >> for those open hearings will be an opportunity for the american people to evaluate the witnesses for themselves, to make their own determinations about the credibility of the witnesses, and also to learn firsthand about the facts of the president's misconduct. ainsley: is he saying if you don't buy it now, if you don't think it was quid pro quo, you will be after you watch these hearings. i will persuade you. brian: george kent is going to be one of the people, william taylor first and

ambassador i can't yavonivich. things saw in the transcript released will come front and center. republican also have the opportunity to cross-examine. how do you know that? what makes you jump to that conclusion. if they have the answers the public will be the ultimate jury. steve: ultimately. keep in mind the democrats are setting the table. they are deciding who the witnesses are going to be. so far all the transcripts have been released. they have been cherry picked by the majority of democrats. okay. you got a juvenile court of democrats in the house. but, last night in monroe, louisiana, the president was in a big rally and he was talking about the majority of the country that's angry. watch. >> the american people are fed up with democrat lies, hoaxes, smears, slanders and scams. the democrats' shameful conduct has created an angry

majority. and that's what we are. we are a majority and we're angry. that we will vote the do-nothing democrats out of office in 2020. ainsley: you know what was also just released. talk about anger, the attorney for the whistleblower, mike zaid, he has been angry about this president getting in office for years now. almost three years ago he started tweeting. he tweeted this out in january 30th, 2017. steve: that's a long time ago. ainsley: coup has started as one falls, two more will take their place, #rebellion, #impeachment. that's shortly after the president fired of the acting a.g. sally yates. brian: all the people who say witch-hunt gregg jarrett wrote the book on it. grasping at straws, the lawyer for the whistleblower in 2017 right after sally yates was fired talked about a wave of plots and plans to impeach the president.

steve: that was right after the inauguration of the president just a couple of weeks. then later that same year in 2017, on july 1st, the whistleblower's attorney tweeted out very sad we will get rid of him and this country industry strong enough to survive even him and his supporters. we have to. the campaign last night said hey the whistleblower's lawyer gave await game. this has been their plan from the start. that's also what the president said last night down in louisiana. >> it's all a hoax. it's a scam. and you know who helps them, these people back here the media. it just came out that's the whistleblower. the whistleblower the one that came out with trump said this and trump said that and then when they heard my real phone call, the whistleblower disappeared. shifty schiff, he is a corrupt politician. schiff didn't want to have the whistleblower anymore because nobody thought i was going to release the phone call. as soon as i released the

phone call. and you don't like doing with a foreign leader. brian: what was also key in one of those tweets when he was pointing to the media. he was also pointing back to relying on those tweets when he said in 2017 zaid does i predict cnn will play a key role in the real donald trump not finishing out his full term as president. if you watched their programming, have you ever seen a positive worked about the president 24 hours a day? steve: i don't watch their programming, brian. fox nation, i watch this programming, we are fair and balanced. brian: do you have a lot of choices when it comes to programming. steve: i do. you know the thing about the app., you can actually see a lot of fox news channel stuff on it that includes jillian mele who made the trip down here as well and she joins us right now with the news. jillian: good morning. what a great night. ainsley: yes. it was so much fun. good morning to you guys, to you at home as well. jillian: get you cottrell up on headlines we are following. we begin with this story. former attorney general jeff

♪ ♪ steve: all right. all eyes are on capitol hill to see former national security advisor shows up today as requested by democrats to testify in the impeachment inquiry. sources say so far no subpoena has been sent to mr. bolton so he's probably not going to show.

ainsley: this as house democrats announce the first set of public hearings. brian: i will guarantee you he will not show. here to discuss it fox news legal analyst and author of this book called witch-hunt called gregg jarrett. move forward, do witch-hunt on russia now we have got the ukraine. what did we learn yesterday that you think is significant? >> well, we learned that the attorney, mark zaid had set this all up. it was contrived. it was preordained. the attorney for the whistleblower is not a whistleblower under the law actually came upon a recommendation from adam schiff's committee. so that speaks volumes that this is a partisan witch-hunt. ainsley: kevin mccarthy said. this we should take zaid at his word, coordinated pre-mepremeditated spot to overturn the election. >> it clearly is. all of the witnesses who will be called have already testified secretly. they are all opinion witnesses offering their interpretations of the conversation they weren't

privy to. they are all diplomats and diplomats are notorious gossipers. so, for example, steve mentioned bill taylor is one of the first witnesses. taylor said oh, it was my understanding there was a quid pro quo. did you get that from the president? no. a guy told a guy who told a guy who told me. if that were in a court of law a judge would say to the jurors disregard the testimony, strike it from the record. it's irrelevant. steve: on this program a couple of weeks ago we featured. so early tweets of the whistleblower law firm where they were actually looking for people to blow the whistle. ainsley: asking for more whistleblowers. steve: they were. greg, given your legal hat, which you are not wearing in florida here today because it's so darn warm. from what we have seen so far in what has been leaked selectively to make it look as bad as possible for the president, is there anything there that would possibly be -- well, considering democrats can say high

crimes and misdemeanors or whatever we say, but is there anything there that we have seen so far that the public would say you're right, we have got to get rid of him. >> no, there is not. there is no high crime and misdemeanor. in fact, the department of justice criminal division looked at the conversation of the trump phone call with zelensky and said there is no crime here. so, we are left with this sort of morphos concept it's abuse of power because there was a quid pro quo. lawyers have a principle called the best evidence. and it's analogous here. the best evidence is the transcript of no condition, no pressure no, demand, no quid pro quo and that's corroborated by president zelensky. brian: i have no legal hat to put on, i will tell you one thing. the president was curious about what happened in ukraine. >> sure. brian: paul mart got himself in a lot of trouble because of things he didn't do in the campaign. ken vogel of the "new york times" he talked about the role of ukraine. for him being interested and

sending somebody he trusts to find about ukraine's role in the 2016 elections. >> that's right. brian: if all those things are true, is the president in trouble? >> no. the president is entitled if he has reason to believe that there is evidence of corruption in the hands of a foreign government, he has every right and, in fact, i would argue a duty to say please look into it if you have evidence, turn it over to us. so, you know, i write extensively my book "witch-hunt" about how ukraine medalled in the 2016 election to benefit hillary clinton. and hurt trump. steve: they should get their money back. >> the president is entitled to say obama did, stop the meddling. let's have the evidence. why is the standard different for this president. it shouldn't be. ainsley: that's not the democrats' argument. their argument is quid pro quo. i'm not giving you the money if you don't do. this. brian: candidate for 2020 not about vice president. >> all these people

including gordon sondland i assumed quid pro quo: that's not evidence. steve: i presume there is a commercial coming so we have to say thank you. >> all right. brian: thank you for being here. ainsley: thank you so much. brian: thanks to sean hannity for letting us borrow you. we appreciate it. up next, two words, diamond and silk, silc together. ainsley: that's three words. brian: sorry. steve: john rich giving us a behind the scenes look at the patriot awards. you are not going to want to miss it. it all started here in florida ♪ ♪ great riches will find you when liberty mutual

>> i get tired of people that have lived their life and have ate meat telling us not to eat meat. don't tell us what we can and cannot eat. if you have a problem with climate change. stop driving cars. ride a horse to work. you do everything you can to fix the climate. don't impose upon my right to have thanksgiving with my family. brian: county lions still play is that going to hurt the environment. steve: i don't know what their carbon footprint is i do like one column it says eat more pumpkin pie. can't go wrong with that. >> i also want to eat the meat, too. steve: you want a choice. >> absolutely. brian: by the way, this is anniversary two years ago today starbucks started putting real pumpkin in the pumpkin spice latte. >> i love it. brian: can we get your reaction from the first ever patriot awards from behind the scenes to the front of the stage? >> phenomenal to see people who served our country being honored in that way. i think that this should happen every single year.

is an asset to russia. because she is going to run as a third party candidate and maybe russia is going to use her. think about how insulting that is. that didn't stop joy behar from referencing it earlier on "the view." called her basically a useful idiot for russia. ainsley: tulsi had a chance to go on "the view" yesterday and confront joy behar. watch this. >> i don't think that tulsi is an agent. i just think that she could be a useful idiot the way trump is a useful idiot to the russians. >> some of you have accused me of being a traitor to my country, a russian asset, a trojan horse. or a useful idiot is the term you are using. if you are saying not deliberately, you are implying i'm too stupid and too naive and lack the intelligence to know what i am doing. that's extremely offensive:

followed by buyers from new york and chicago. we know that a lot of people from new york and new jersey wind up moving here to florida. >> yeah, i'm shocked that people are leaving california. can i give you a multitude of reasons we don't have all day. taxes going to funding illegal immigrants. that's a problem for a lot of people. even though they can't afford it. yes, it is unaffordable for most middle class americans. that's a huge part of the problem. the other people that actually can afford it, they don't want to fund this anymore. they don't know what's happening to our state. they don't know how this governor got elected. many people tell me how did this guy get in here. he is destroying the state. brian: especially running on a post. the republican party died. in california. one party system and now it's their report card. as the taxes go up, there is nobody to blame. >> why did we stop trying in california? that's why i'm there trust me, it's not because i love paying the high taxes and like seeing the homeless and needles, it's because it needs to be saved. if we keep leaving, we are not going to save it.

i get why people need. i would say to the conservatives out there. please stick around. it's worth fighting for. it's a great state. steve: it's going to take a generation to turn it around politically. >> it might be so bad that people are starting to wake up and say hey, homeless people with mattresses on the beach maybe that's not what we want for our state. maybe we don't want people defecating on the street. ainsley: get ready you will have a lot of traffic. brian: did we see what micky said, the wrestler ♪ white house [bleep] um-huh [bleep] no good [bleep] [bleep] going to be a day where he ain't president and we are going to bump into each other. um-huh. and you are going to feel me. you going to give him a left hook. >> left hook from hell. brian: there you have got actor threatening. steve: not a fasten the

president. >> let's be honest, a lot of actors and actresses that bash trump is only time they get their names in the headlines trump derangement syndrome and obsession with this president. again, they preach love, they preach tolerance of everything except conservatism. they would be surprised to know how many conservatives there are in hollywood that won't say a word because they fear for their job. not only actresses and producers make up artists a lot of them there but they are terrified. brian: if anyone knows the business end of movies. they know what it was like in 2008. nobody making movies. the economy collapsed. it is now back. they now have work. all these different networks started. that relates to the person in the white house. they think big picture, at some point they have to feel somewhat greater weight of thgratified.>> they say obama dt just took a little while. they are never going to give this president credit. quite frankly this president didn't win because of the endorsements of hollywood, celebrities. that's what the democrats

need. this president goes on stage with a flag and a podium and he gets crowds. he amasses huge crowds that love and support him. that's going to take him into 2020. brian: great job last night. >> thank you. steve: thank you for joining us. get back on a plane and go back to california. >> i do have to? steve: 21 minutes before the top of the hour. jillian joins us from the theater here in saint pete. jillian: that's right. your speech was phenomenal last night, tomi. it was excellent. good morning to you guys and to you at home as with. the 13-year-old murder suspect who escaped custody gets turned in by his mom. the boy identified as jericho w. escaped from a holding room after a court appearance in north carolina. police say he took off while wearing leg restraints and no shoes when a guard opened a door. jericho was charged in the deaths of two brothers last month. his mom called the cops when he showed up at a family member's house last night. senator elizabeth warren offers to meet with bill gates to discuss her wealth tax. 2020 hopeful tweeting in

brian: isis leader baghdadi is dead and wife captured and evident let talking a lot. turkish president erdogan making the announcement yesterday. ainsley: comes as turkey also captured baghdadi's sister and brother-in-law calling these arrests an intelligence gold mine. steve: our next guest is no stranger from gathering intelligence from

terrorists. dr. james mitchell personally interrogated dr. khalid sheikh mohammed and developed the enhanced interrogation program. he lives down here in the tampa area and joins us in saint pete. doctor, great to have you. >> great to be here. steve: good news a couple weeks ago was baghdadi dead. now, the even better news is the fact that all the stuff they found at -- where he was living is going to help figure out what that company -- that, you know, potentially company is all about. isis. incorporated. >> the good thing is the americans got that stuff. you know, one of the reasons that the cia developed their own program and wanted to question the terrorists themselves was because the kind of information we were getting from foreign nationals. foreign countries especially in the middle east was iffy and very often they didn't service our intel requirements. effort to do that. the fact that that trove of information, especially the digital footprints and the pocket litter and any sort of information that may have

been coming from their she a council which are the people that make the decisions in that group that stuff is really important and we have it and that's a good thing. ainsley: what is turkey seek from the sister and one of his wives? >> my guess would be that they are wanting to know who he had contact, who she has contact with. they are trying to fill out the network. they're looking for information to fill in who communicates with who. hot new leaders are. how they are doing that communication, that sort of stuff. brian: isis marched through turkey to make a home in syria. turkey let it happen. we caught baghdadi right by the turkish border with al qaeda operatives. put that puzzle together. >> sometimes, you know, in islam, especially in the quran, it is a sin to take the side of an infidel over another muslim even if that muslim is wrong. even if that smus muslim is a

murderer. one of the things have to keep in mind going forward with turkey is how much those religious tenets are going to play in to what they provide us in terms of access they get of the information from the relatives. in terms of access they get from the material that they have gathered. and i would suggest that would he be highly skeptica skeptical. steve: that's what you would suggest? brian: erdogan comes to the white house two weeks. that's an interesting invitation. >> you need to talk to your enemies and your friends. steve: do you indeed. real pleasure. thank you for making the trip over. >> thank you for having me. brian: great column on foxnews.com. >> thanks. steve: this hockey player went viral for making this speech you saw it here. >> if there is anybody here that is going to be disrespectful to either the american or canadian national anthem grab your gear and get the [bleep] out now. steve: last night that straight-talking coach was

my next project, everyone sing national anthem at movie theaters. i don't know where he gets it from. full uniform. i know exactly where he gets it from. >> other folks in crowd military overseas at theaters and they do that. they used to do that in the states. what about today, we come so far, collectively we couldn't stand in a movie theater do the national anthem before we start the movie? we're not past that. that was part of our fabric. why couldn't we do that today. brian: at least for the captain america movie. something else going on in the news, whatever you think of tulsi gabbard, she served in the national guard. volunteered to go overseas. she missed one of the debates she had to be stationed in malaysia on normal rotation at all. out of nowhere hillary clinton says jill stein was a russian asset in the last election. without using her name, wink and nod insinuated she will be the

russian asset for this election. steve: that's right. joy behar on "the view" about 10 days or so ago talked this way about tulsi gabbard. >> i don't say that tulsi is an agent. i just think she could be a useful idiot the way trump is a useful idiot for the russians. ainsley: calling her a useful idiot. tulsi gabbard accepted their invitation to go on the show yesterday. she confronted joy about it. watch. >> some of you have accused me of being a traitor to my country, a russian asset, a trojan horse, or a useful idiot. useful idiot. >> well useful. >> if you're saying it it is not deliberately -- >> it could be. >> that i'm too stupid and too naive to lack the intelligence to know what i am doing. i get extremely offended. >> you're on state tv all the

plausible. the math doesn't add up. it will kill the country. she knows as much as her ideas might not resonate with you, you have to respect who she is. so few of the others have the been in uniform. >> she has been there. taking controversial position in the middle east. she knows it. she is willing to take a stance. yet she is marginalized for it. ainsley: she is smart. >> she is. steve: steve, thank you very much. you were very useful patriot on the stage. >> brian, you found your spot on the stage. brian: i walked past my spot. >> he missed rehearsals, he wasn't where he was supposed to stand he came over me. brian: they said, come back you got to come back. ainsley: you missed rehearsals. were you at the bar? >> brian: i have my stand-in. >> it was a great show. steve: we have surprise in 90 seconds after the news with jillian. jillian: i'm not the surprise.

but "the l.a. times" has a different take, turning a critical eye toward the victims. ainsley: the paper facing some backlash after posting the headline, victims in mexico massacre were tied to family with long history of violence. brian: here to react fox news contributor, position news nation host, tammy bruce. tammy, before we get to that heavy subject, real quick about last night, done a lot of things, where does this rank? >> this was extraordinary. i knew it would be great because of the fans. it was really remarkable. it reminded everybody who was there last night, that in fact despite all the rhett rec we're all divided, we have nothing in common, people across the country, different people, different lives, different business owners, et cetera, all with something in common which is a love for this country t allows us to lives that best suit us. it was fabulous, invigorating. i was honored to be here. it was fabulous to be with

"the l.a. times" taking heat over what they said. u.s. victims in mexico massacre were tied to family with a long history of violence. are they blaming, sounds like they're blaming people who died? >> the reaction to headline also, "new york times" had a twitter post about this, the family that it highlighted this family. no, it highlighted the mass murdering cartels down there, that targeted americans and women and children. so that was how it was taken. brian: shot children in the back.

>> this was, headline is, in a certain sense these people were asking for it, they put themselves in that position but here is what we've noticed. there is this, remember the attempt to rehab abu bakr al-baghdadi's reputation calling him austere scholar? brian: no one was fired for that. >> what we're seeing here, anything that the left or democrats think might interfere with their narrative, even if it involves mass murder, they're going to try to whitewash. this is why the president is so critical so often of legacy media and why americans look at this, and think, you can't even tell us the basic facts over a news story, murder of women and children, how can we trust you on other issues? this is where the bias and politics come in. why this show is popular. why the network is popular, why this last night was so successful, people simply want the right information to decide for themselves. when we see something this basic about, who is to not be against this, but in that case, it is

about violence in mexico, chaos from the cartels, importance of securing the border with al-baghdadi. god forbid, should it point out success of president's foreign policy approach and his strength. really, this is horrible. thank goodness for social media which immediately called them out. ainsley: children were not only shot in the back, they were burned alive. >> these are the details. they are horrible. the president reached out, saying let's help you with this. this affects the lives of mexicans, of immigrants and of americans. we've got that in common. we have to work on it. brian: we reached out to the "l.a. times." we don't have a comment from them yet. this goes ahead. >> thank you, everybody. ainsley: he is a marine who lost both of hess legs in afghanistan. now he is running for congress. marine sergeant rob jones was honored as the most valuable patriot. brian: legendary football coach lou holtz is here to fire us up.

as well. remember when you see a lot of policies like travel ban, all of that, a lot of lower court got involved. what we've seen from the liberals, activists judges don't believe in the constitution really. they believe it's a living, breathing document, that it needs to be changed. when you talk about conservatives they may not like the president's personality, they will vote for him because of the courts. ainsley: a lot of evangelicals voted for him in the election because of this reason. a lot are pro-life. >> a lot believe this is the first shot to undo roe vs. wade. a lot of issues affect the country. ainsley: religious liberty. >> religious liberty going on. when you have liberals made it very clear, why do you think they went after kavanaugh so hard during the past hearings? because they realize that the court is changing and they really want -- there is a chance that president trump may get another seat as well. they're scared about that. steve: let's look at impact so far.

trump judicial nominees confirmed by congress. two on the supreme court. 44 u.s. courts of appeal. 112 district courts and specialty courts for a total of 158. we get the impact at the supreme court but why is it so important at the district and specialty court level? >> because a lot of these decisions, the supreme court won't hear all these cases. brian: they have to figure it out down there. >> on lower courts they get a lot of those decisions. i was at the rally the other day with president trump. he said why did president obama leave me so many seats? because the republicans controlled the senate at that time. they wanted the next senate who happened to be republican to decide those seats. now the president has put more judges into office than any other. ainsley: you mentioned 158 judges. obama at this point in his presidency, 115. >> right. now, there is potential the president getting a second term. he plans on even, i think the number came out that the president has installed 1/3 of

all judges on the bench. that is a big margin. brian: you do as much on the street as anyone in different cities. how much do they care about impeachment? >> you know i've been talking to a lot of people. they feel like it's a big distraction. i was in kentucky at the trump rally, tuesday, i'm sorry monday, they believe a lot of democrat are trying to undo what they did at the ballot box. i think democrats are overplaying their hand. even democrat primary voters are not for impeachment. they ban to talk about issues. they want to talk about health care. since they promised to do that in the last election when they took over the house i think they will pay at the ballot box. steve: we heard a lot from people who were at the "fox nation" patriot awards last night. i'm sure you did. >> good people. steve: we talked about the news of the day. also the fact this was an award saluting either heroes at the community level or first-responders or military,

across the board. there lawyers night. >> that is my girlfriend. she is going to be so embarrassed she was on tv. ainsley: she looks gorgeous. brian: if it isn't your girlfriend she will be angry. >> so beautiful inside and out. she comes from a military family. she told me when she was in germany, her dad was in special forces they would stand up for the pledge of allegiance before movies. when she got back to the states, they didn't do that. she wonders why. goes to show you what our military servicemen, how they see the country, how much they are patriotic versus we are. the young kid wants to change that. that is a really good deal. steve: if movie theater company wants to do it, they could do it. i wonder what the reaction? >> there would be backlash. national outrage with the liberals and progressives that believe somehow our flag is racist. ainsley: they make a lot of

money from conservatives. >> every single injustice is because of the u.s. constitution that we have the right to fight for those things. brian: lawrence jones, thanks so much. steve said earlier back it up, best dressed guy yesterday. i will take second. steve: he does the show, man on the street. i will talk to some people on the street here in front of the mahaffey theater in st. pete. ainsley: st. petersburg. brian: if you guys don't mind i would like to check in with sandra smith. ii want to see what is on her show because i have cable. >> we loved watching everything down there last night. we'll continue with news. bill gates is warning democrats, specifically elizabeth warren on her 52 trillion-dollar health care plan. be careful of taxing too much he says. how she is responding to that this morning. kamala harris wanting to lenten the school day by three hours? we'll have brand new reaction. impeachment push continues on capitol hill as the president
