three of us and some members of our crew got together for our a christmas lunch at the end. brian actually gave me his credit card and i was going to bring it back to him today. funny thing happened between yesterday and today. brian: what? steve: last night i was paying some bills. you know how it always says what is the secret code on the front of it? i used yours. ainsley: accidentally? steve: and it worked. my water bill was paid with your number. brian: fantastic. ainsley: how did you get the card? because i got it first. you gave it to me because had you to go catch your train. ainsley: hit card and somehow it ended up in your wallet. steve: anyway, i gout it. you are welcome. brian: i paid your water bill. steve: i have the feeling you are going to be buying coffee today. ainsley: yesterday we had some meetings, full day. brian: promos. ainsley: talking about the election and all of that brian had on his phone the whhorowitz. we were listening to

horowitz. brian: it was incredible. ainsley: unbelievable. steve: we are going to talk about that in a minute. first, talk about why they were burning the midnight oil in the congress yesterday. yesterday. fiery marathon hearing late into the night on capitol hill. ainsley: they will take a vote in the committee and then go to the full house. latest polls show they might want to think twice. brian: griff is in washington, d.c. to explain what happened. griff, you were up late and now you are up early. what happened? griff: brian, ainsley and steve, good morning. the sausage is getting made. get day two of the mark-up session. day is going to go all day 41 members of the judiciary committee vote on proposed amendments of the articles of impeachment. at the end of the day, go right down party lines and they will send the articles to the house floor next week for a vote. when the session began, chairman jerry nadler said three factors must be considered as they firmly

debate. >> first, does the evidence show clearly that the president committed these acts? second, do they rise to the level of impeachable high crimes and misdemeanors? third, what are the consequences for our national security, for the integrity of our elections and for our country. griff: republicans are blasting this march to impeachment calling it rushed and unfair. here is the ranking mebleg of that committee doug collins. >> what you need to continue to say is: we can't beat him next year. the only thing we need is a 30 second commercial saying we impeached him. that's the wrong reason to impeach somebody. griff: here's the thing. while today's committee vote is predictable. the house on the map floor something to watch. latest monmouth poll show 60% oppose imbeach peaching him. pelosi needs 216, focus on

that number. because there are 31 democrats in her party that are in districts trump carried. she can only lose 176 them. otherwise, she has got a real problem and, again, the white house pointing to the polling that is in their favor. guys? brian: griff, even the fact that you are saying we have got to get to 233 to get impeachment -- 217 i should say. that's historic. because usually there is buy-in from the other party. two said i'm not for the inquiry. they are going to vote against it. then have you this other woman alicia slotnic she told fox yesterday she still has not decided yet. i'm wondering how many others have not made up their minds yet on the left? griff: this is setting up a really really tough decision for democrats. as we talked this week, guys, remember there was that week for censure instead of impeachment. that failed to get any traction. now you are talking about taking that vote which may

backfire on them when they consider their own futures come november next year. certainly was the case in 1998 with bill clinton when the party of clinton, the democrats gained seats and his approval ratings went up after being acquitted by senate democrats. ainsley: the president's poll numbers are going up, too. as far as impeachment is concerned, the public, there is fewer support, all-time low. steve: griff, thank you very much for that meantime kevin mccarthy has this observation about what the democrats' end game is. >> they have always had a timeline. they just have never had facts or proof or reason to go forward. these people, what is so outrageous to me, they would rather impeach instead of investigate government overreach. they should be calling horowitz in there tonight. not impeaching the president. that committee, two thirds of those democrats have already voted for impeachment before they read anything. >> keep in mind, according to the "the washington post," the senate says when

it gets to the senate and expects to pass today. when he they get it are a the new year they will move it through quick. the president wanted a long trial to defend himself. they said it will be short and sweet and it will be over and it's going to be 1, 2, 3 and get on with our country's business. keep in mind, it flips in the senate. because susan collins doesn't want to vote on this. it's not going to help her. you have core gardner, he is somebody, maybe thom tillis doesn't want to vote. they are going to have their hands full in their districts anyway. steve: looks like a lose, lose, lose all around. steve: looks like the president will not get his wish to call joe biden. we will keep you post on that. in the meantime yesterday inspector general of the department of justice michael horowitz was on capitol hill. he had six hours of testimony. he is essentially walking through the judiciary committee through his report that came out a couple of days ago. found fbi violations from top to bottom admitted something was fishy at the fbi. he weighs asked could the 17 significant errors or

omissions be accidental? horowitz said he would be skeptical. the answers they got were not satisfactory. it's either shear incompetence, intentionality or something in between. listen to this exchange between the inspector general and john kennedy hit something. >> let's talk about the people involved in the initial fisa application and the renewals. these are experienced people, right? >> in this case these were experienced people. >> they were hand picked by mr. mccabe, right? >> they were hand picked. >> this wasn't their first rodeo? >> it certainly wasn't. >> it just seems to me it has to be one of two things. either incompetence or intentional conduct. >> i agree. it's either shear incompetence, intentionality, or something, perhaps, in between. i think it's fair for people to sit there and look at all of these 17 events and

wonder how it could be purely incompetence. ainsley: three separate investigative teams. steve: all hand picked. ainsley: hand picked by mccabe. keep in mind the fbi was being run by james comey. who said what i thought was bombshell information yesterday. james comey keep in mind in the past he said the fisa abuse is nonsense. he signed off on three of the five applications he swore his information was accurate. this week, after the report came out on monday, he said the ig report vindicated him and then horowitz went on to say no one is vindicated. he called comey's fisa he abuse inexplicable. failure by the entire chain of command. brian: you can't have it both ways. the other thing i thought was sensational and because it was hard clad, ironclad and indisputable is that the steele dossier was used predominantly to get the fisa warrant. ainsley: unverified. brian: unverified. even christopher steele said single sources haven't been to russia in 20 years. these people gave me this

information. >> by the way i was working for the fbi. i was working for fusion gps. next, so then comeback for democrats is well, carter page, he barely played a role and george papadopoulos the president barely knew him. no kidding you can't have it both ways. either use those two people to launch the investigation and they matter or they dent matter and they shouldn't have launched the investigation. here is senator lindsey graham. >> it may have started lawfully. it got off the rails quick. it became a value conspiracy to defraud the fisa court to put mr. page through hell and to continual to surveil president trump after he got elected. i hope somebody pays a price for that you have certainly done your part, mr. horowitz. steve: when the horowitz report came out on monday. you saw the headlines there was no political bias at the fbi. the republicans have been barking up the wrong tree for a while. what my o my have the tides

have turned. members of the media now admitting fbi made some problematic mistakes. watch. >> let's be crystal clear here, the ig did find some alarming instances of fbi misconduct. this part was damning. why were you misleading the foreign intelligence. why was that not reported up the chain of command. that is legitimate beef that strike. >> there were very clear mistakes made by the fbi and a particular point egregious altering of a document to not inform the court and to not inform others that carter page was actually also at times a confidential source of the cia. steve: that information was changed by an fbi lawyer to make it look like he wasn't but he was. ainsley: exactly. there were so many mistakes. horowitz said these were basic errors. if these investigators are so experienced, why are these type of mistakes being made? think about this, if those mistakes hadn't been made.

if they had been accurate and they included everything and they hadn't omitted information, then the warrant to surveil northwesterly would have been granted and we wouldn't be talking about this today. brian: all the wires that people wore and split hairs over spying, surveillance, spy, whatever, it was running rampant. ainsley: tarnishes the reputation of the fbi and those are men and women who put their lives on the line. field offices are wonderful. these groupings are tarnishing the reputation of the fbi. steve: yesterday was an opening salvo. he is going to be back, mr. horowitz is, on capitol hill in front of another committee next week. i have a feeling you will see that live, too. brian: speaking of wonderful americans, carley shimkus is here. carley: how sweet. i feel the same about all three of you. we will start now with a fox news alert. thousands attend funerals and vigils of victims of the horrific jersey city attack overnight. among those remembered moshi an active volunteer in the

and fbi were perfectly happy to be hatchet men for this on poo research dump. ainsley: next guest worked for the doj when the mueller probe started. he said ted cruz is just scratching thes surface. brian: new plan to get homeless people off the street put them on a cruise ship. i wish i had that idea. i wish i told somebody. ♪ most people think of verizon as a reliable phone company. but to businesses, we're a reliable partner. we keep companies ready for what's next.

yesterday, you seen parallels between the horowitz report and the mueller report. >> i do. i do. if you go back to the first indictments from the mueller special counsel team, it was against the russians for conspiracy to defraud the united states. and what they said was that you had these russian operatives creating fake news and then distributing it through social media to the american public for the purposes of influencing an election. what you have here at the fbi in 2016 is several people at the top of the fbi manipulating the government, taking a fake dossier and then leaking that to the press to generate news to influence an election. if you ask me, that is conspiracy to defraud the united states. that is a crime. now, go back -- go further to when trump is actually elected. they continued doing the same thing, leaking stories to the press, all to help derail the trump presidency. that is conspiracy to defraud the united states. now, whether you are able to

prove that in a court of law, whether you are able to get a conviction, that's another story, but i think it's pretty clear here what was done was not by mistake. it was intentional and it was to derail the trump presidency. steve: you say it was intentional, when horowitz was asking these various people who made these 17 mistakes that it seemed like the department of justice had their thumb on the scale against trump each and every time. when they asked these members of leadership and the rank and file who are involved in operation crossfire hurricane, suddenly they have amnesia. yeah, i don't know what we were thinking. no, i don't remember that no, i can't really help you on that. and so horowitz is left with what he has got they can't say yep, you are right we were out to get him. >> that's right. they can't remember. guy back to an exchange that horowitz had. i believe it was with senator kennedy that you played earlier in the show where it's almost impossible to believe that this level of incompetence existed. this had to be intentional.

he just simply cannot prove it from where he is. now perhaps john durham can prove it. steve: one of the other things that senator kennedy said was that it is easier to divorce your wife than to get somebody fired at the fbi. >> that's right. and, look, i think we are at the point in time where we need to go back, 1970s you had the church committee looking into abuses at the cia. i think we need a select senate committee to look at the abuses at the fbi and we need to make some serious changes. change number one, we should not have a 10-year term for fbi director. you have to get elected twice to be president for 8 years. no fbi director should serve for 10 years. steve: let's see what happens. ian, thank you very much for joining us today. >> thanks for having me. steve: 6:21 in new york city. new call to arm troops on bases after that deadly shooting last week in pence cola. why aren't men and women serving our country allowed to carry a gun to protect themselves? we have a military panel to discuss that coming up next. and, elizabeth warren wants

about wild west. in florida can you carry a gun. we are not walking around shooting each other. >> exactly. going to your point of something you brought up a little bit earlier is that when we were in afghanistan everyone was required to carry their weapons at all times it wasn't a suggestion or option. it was a requirement. it's not until we get on to u.s. bases on american soil do our soldiers -- are our soldiers now required to believe like sheeps sent out to slaughter. suddenly incapable of defending themselves. brian: you think it should be an option. not everyone wants to carry you don't have to but should be an option. >> to have a personal conceal carry. one of the ironies is on the military base you are stripped of your second amendment rights. you could live out in town in florida or texas or one of the places where military base is nut carolinas and you leave the post, and then you get your second amendment rights back you are actually safer. brian: it doesn't happen

that much. we go back to fort hood and what happened yesterday in hawaii. it doesn't happen that much. are we overreacting now because of what happened in pensacola? >> i don't think we are overreacting. it's past time for us to have this conversation. we were talking earlier how the -- we have private security forces that are meant to secure these bases. now, those private security forces are armed. but we don't have the soldiers that are armed right now. and when you think about what happened with fort hood, you think about the threat of radical islamic terrorists infiltrating and that same threat can happen with the private security forces as it can with these soldiers i say give them conceal carry. brian: took pervasive action. 980 saudis training into the classroom. we have to screen you better. i'm not for scrapping this program with international officers coming here to train with us. are you? >> no, not necessarily. we need to do a much better job in distinction britishing what world we think we live in and what kind of world we actually live. in i get it. when we are on american soil

know the identity of both shooters 47-year-old david anderson and 50-year-old francine graham. the "new york post" is reporting that both attackers were adherence to the fringe religious group called the black hebrew israelites. it's a religious movement that's been labeled a hate group. sources also telling the post the shooters left behind a handwritten note inside a stolen u-haul van that says quote i do this because my creator makes me do this and i hate who he hates. even though investigators have yet to give a motive behind the attack. jersey city mayor claims the evidence shows this was anti-semitic hate crime. he says the shooters posted anti-semitic messages on social media. cctv surveillance cameras clearly show both shooters getting out of u-haul van with long guns and then aggressively and delusional firing into the jewish kosher grocery store killing three. the store co-owner, 31-year-old mindy ferencz mother of three.

story to accept. look, they should have had the right to defend themselves. let's get right to the bottom of this. you stop creeps like this with superior fire power. in new jersey, where steve and i live, it is nearly impossible to get the right to carry guns because the government doesn't respect the second amendment rights. that's issue number one. issue number two is these two people were texting each other. they capture every text we do. they look at them after the tragedy. they don't stop them in time. of what value is there to this constant surveillance if they are going to use it for historical purposes rather than prevent these claments before they happen? brian: the other thing to add to that is we are going to be looking at everybody's text messages and they go, okay. napolitano, i'm worried about him. i'm not worry about ainsley. so, you can't monitor. >> it's information overload. they should be monitoring the crazies like these people. brian: that group should be examined. >> correct. not everybody else. they know they belong to a

terrorist group. some sort of black jews that wants to kill orthodox jews. this is mind boggling this can exist in measure, today and potential victims are stripped of their rights to defend themselves. steve: speak of rights. given the fact that you were talking about how all our data is collected by the government and they look at it after something bad happens to figure out who else is involved. you looked at the horowitz report and testimony yesterday. and you. >> don't ask me to read the entire report because i did. steve: you you are a good man. he laid bear that there were problems at the fbi they completely had their thumb on the scale to get the feeds warrant to spy on the trump campaign. >> there is no question that that is the case. there is to disputing that, whether you are in favor of president trump or whether you can't stand president trump. steve: everybody should be worried about what happened. >> correct. if they can do this to the future and eventually the incumbent president of the united states, they could do it to anybody.

fisa is profoundly unconstitutional. because of the very, very, very low threshold that permits fbi and nsa agents to go to fisa and get a search warrant. brian: you are for trashing it? >> i'm for trashing it. i'm for the traditional you show probable cause of crime and i will sign the search warrant. when i sign the search warrant, if you don't give me exculpatory information that you have, i'm going to invalidate the search warrant. i was trying a homicide case once. in the middle of the case i said to the lawyers where did you get this from? we got it from a search warrant. who would sign a search warrant knowing all of this? they smirked and said you signed it two years ago but you didn't tell me about all of this. i'm invalidating my own search warrant because the lawyers for the defendant were able to challenge and test what was submitted to me. in fisa, because it's in secret, there is no challenge. there is no test. the fbi and the nsa agents can get away with whatever they want. brian: you can't legislate integrity. >> what mike horowitz did was the first time in 40

hearing on capitol hill. brian: latest poll shows that vulnerable democrats might want to think twice. steve: griff jenkins is live in washington to explain. griff, they've got to take the vote today because the secret of congress in washington is they really only work tuesday, wednesday, thursday and today is thursday. brian: they worked last weekend. griff: that's right. steve: barely. griff: the secret is out of the bag. picking up where they left off last night. mark-up session starts in two hours. members of that judiciary committee working hard debating and approving amendments for the arlts of impeachment. we expect a party vote to move it along party lines go. to the house for a vote next week. jerry nadler began the session asking members to consider the evidence of what the consequences of failing to act would be. >> you cannot rely on an election to solve our problems where the president threatens the very integrity of that election. so, with the heavy heart, my duty to our country, i support these articles of impeachment.

i urge my colleagues to support them as well. >> republicans remain unified against it, blasting kind of rushed and unfair. ranking member doug collins had this to say. >> what you need to continue to say is we can't beat him next year. the only thing we need is a 30 second commercial saying we impeached him. that's the wrong reason to impeach somebody. >> while today's committee vote is predictable. the math on the house floor is something we should be watching. speaker pelosi needs 216 votes to pass. we have 31 democrats from districts trump carried. she can only afford to lose 17 of them. latest monmouth poll shows 50% of americans oppose impeaching and removing the president that's moved in 3 percentage points in favor of the president consider the history lesson. take you back to 1998 in the wake of bill clinton's impeachment and senate acquittal, democrats gained three seats in the house. four in the astronaut. and the immediate aftermath in the same month of his

acquittal, clinton's approval rating jumped 7%. guys? brian: griff, keep in mind too. bill clinton apologized he got caught and he lied under oath and still had the sentiment of the american public because this trial dragged on so long. this president says i did nothing wrong and there is a lot of republicans as you see debating whether he did anything wrong. so it's very much up to debate hence the close vote. steve: that's right. and the senate always acquits. brian: this is where griff says i made a great point. griff: it's a great point, brian. consider also back then there was more bipartisan voting than what we have seen so far today. ainsley: it wasn't down party lines. do you bring up a great point because it was proven that he lied. in this situation it's an opinion. can you read was there quid pro quo? was there not? everyone has different opinions. steve: indeed. let's bring in jason chaffetz for his opinion. former congressman and chair of the houseover sight and government affairs committee joins us from d.c. jason, explain to the folks

who are watching. a lady came up to me yesterday outlines of the grocery. brian: cathy? cathy in fronts of the tree? steve: no, it wasn't it. could have been. i didn't know her name. but anyway, she goes i don't quite understand what they are doing with this impeachment thing. is the president going to be out when they take the vote tonight? and i said no, it's a longer process. >> it's a ridiculous process. less than 48 hours ago we didn't even know what the articles were. they gave the republicans just two hours and like 15 minutes to submit in advance amendments. they held it late in the night. rushing back here at 9:00 a.m. to do it again because they are trying t try finish itp today to have a long big weekend. they will didn't allow the republicans to have the minority hearing day. this thing has been a sham from the beginning. there is not even a sniff or a scent in washington, d.c. that members in the house or the senate are going to jump

ship. a question as griff pointed out how many people on the democratic side of the aisle are going to stop following nadler, schiff, pelosi, and i got to tell you i just -- i think it's an absolute sham. brian: jason, i tuned in last night, another network because i thought our prime time was smart enough to dip in and out. it's the same argument over and over again. the same argument since september. the same argument for the last three weeks. the same argument from two days ago. they don't listen to each other. they talk through each other and it goes around in a circle which makes me want to switch gears and talk about something you know quite well because you have a relationship with michael horowitz, the ig report. first off, what did you glean from yesterday that you didn't pick up in the 434 pages? >> i thought the report itself was stronger than ever. i think i actually understand this idea of was there bias at the -- inception and that whole question is whether or not the proper predicate was there premr. pre-step was

not one that was in the email chains and had all these sort of almost evil thoughts, if you will, about the commander-in-chief or the would be commander-in-chief. and he is the one that pulled the trigger. that's like page 1. but the other 474 pages, where it's damns as it can possibly get. because the michael horowitz is not saying that there wasn't bias on the fisa applications. in fact, quite the opposite. he is pointing out 17 serious omissions, errors, everything you could possibly do wrong in going to the courts. so, what steps next is what is the court going to do? are they going to actually stand up for themselves? i will tell you, any other court in the land, you would be yanked back in front of there and put handcuffs on you, and then what is mr. durham going to do? because there are a lot of unanswered questions there. biggest question for me? why was the friendly foreign government meeting with papadopoulos? with all due respect, he was a nobody in his 20's. and that question was never

even addressed by horowitz, and i think durham will be addressing it. ainsley: jason, they omitted critical, crucial information that would have changed the fisa court's opinion. would have changed these applications being approved if they had had that information in there. they left out things like they didn't tell the judges who paid for the dossier. it turns out it's opposing political campaign. it was unverified, the does yea. they lied in four separate warrants. they omitted evidence. they doctored material and then this week james comey who, you know, this all happened under his watch when he was at the fbi. he said past fisa abuse is nonsense. he signed off on three of the four fisa alps. he swore his information was accurate. this week said it vindicated him. lindsey graham questioned horowitz on that. listen. >> former fbi director james comey said this week that your report convinced indicates him. is that a fair assessment of your report? >> you know, i think the activities we found here don't vindicate anybody who touched this. steve: and he asked the

question does that also apply to andrew mccabe? and he said yeah. from top to bottom it sure looks fishy. >> beyond fishy. i think the so-called attorney number two, the one who took the document and then altered it and doctored it and then presented to the court, i mean, these are people that really need to be prosecuted. up and down the entire food chain. i think i agree with senator lindsey graham that they need to hear from rod rosenstein. i think comey needs to come back before that committee. he was out with an op-ed saying oh this cleared him before he had even read this thing. that is a bunch of hogwash. and i do think there is more that needs to be sorted out about bruce ohr, his wife is working for what was payments from the democrats. and then taking that information 13 times and funneling it back to the fbi after the fbi under their own rules said we shouldn't be talking to steele. steve: jason at one pointed cruz said look, you look at the fbi, we are not talking about jason born the famous

spy played by matt damon we are talking about beevis and butt head. not only do things look weird. there was at least one lawyer who made stuff up. here is ted cruz in th and the . >> panel of the department of justice admitting evidence and altering evidence that ultimately gets submit b to the court. >> i have not seen alteration of email impacting a court document like this. >> if private citizen, if they fabricated evidence and reversed what it said, in your experience, would that private citizen be prosecuted for fabricating evidence? >> they certainly would be considered for that if there was an intentional effort to deceive the court. brian: overall, jason, there is just no sense, no one can ever qualify to me effectively why they did not give the president of the united states a defensive

briefing unless, of course, they actually thought he was a russian asset. they have not admitted to that, but nothing else makes sense. >> they hand-picked this team. mr. mccabe, whose wife, you will remember, was holding democratic fundraisers with money that was coming from the clinton campaign i have got to tell you it smelled terrible from top to bottom. i believe stronger than ever you will see people in handcuffs and that will be prosecuted. steve: wow. all right. stay tuned. jason chaffetz, thank you very much. brian: meanwhile, if you want to see carley shimkus, keep it here i happen to know, i have the rundown, she is on now. carley: that's right. that's happening right now. we will start with a fox news alert. we now know two american teenagers are among the 16 people dead in the new zealand volcano eruption. brothers barron and matthew hollander were born in chicago and moved to australia. that's where their father is from. they were visiting the island with their parents who are still missing. today president trump will deliver remarks at the white

election is two totally competing ideas for the future of the u.k. this will really have an effect on the country for many years to come. here is boris johnson speaking yesterday. >> this contest is tight and getting tighter. the choice for our amazing country could not be starker. indeed, i can't remember an election in my political lifetime when there has been such a chasm between the two possible futures for this country. >> so on one side there, you have prime minister boris johnson and the conservatives. he voted this morning along with his dog. if they win, and with a majority, brexit goes through and the u.k. you, at least in their words will embrace free and open trade with the rest of the world. crucially it will seek a new path for the u.k. out of eu hand in hand with the u.s. on the other side if jeremy corbyn and the labour party

wins couldn't be more different. promising socialist agendas, nationalizing major companies. taking out $600 billion in loans to do so and also spoken out quite sour terms about president trump. as you point out, this election has one crucial issue of brexit. and what it has done it has divided this country many people are breaking with traditional voting alliances. people who have never voted conservative before will do so because they supported brexit and visa versa. polls close at 5:00 eastern tonight. we will get exit polls soon after that. but, really at the moment, no one is quite sure who is going to win. boris johnson dropping his lead over the past week or. so real significant for the u.k. and also trans-atlantic relationship. brian, steve and ainsley. brian: is it true that boris johnson hid in the refrigerator rather than talk to piers morgan? >> he was corn ared live on air yesterday morning and, you know, he was in the middle of a photo

you want to be part of this squad? >> this is about bringing the conservative message to the people of the united states. so the people understand that we're looking at do-nothing democrats. they are obsessing about impeachment and not really doing anything for the people of the united states anymore. you know, you take a look at western minnesota, the districts that i live in they are ignoring usmca they have finally gotten around to it a year later. the farmers out in western minnesota need usmca and they waited and waited but they have plenty of time for impeachment and the sham that that is and they just continue to object says about that and not do the things that the people of the united states really need. ainsley: nancy, why is the squad important to you? >> well, you know, to look at my life, i got my start as a waitress at waffle house. i became the first woman to graduate from the citadel the military college of south carolina 20 years ago. today i'm a business woman and state lawmaker running for the united states congress. and this is about our future. this is the american dream. and you see the democrats, they have taken a sharp left turn under the influence of

the socialist squad. and you look at us, and this is socialism vs. the american values of freedom and job creation. and we all understand up here today that people flourish under freedom. and 2020 next year is pivot tall for our country. and you know we see republican women who are picking up the mantel and want to search. enough is enough. my kids and country are worth fighting for. that's what this is about, essentially. ainsley: beth, how about you? >> i look right now we have a congress run by extremists and it's dangerous for america. they are not doing anything. we haven't seen solutions for out-of-control healthcare costs. we have seen nothing that is solving problems it border. human traffickers and drug cartels come in. we have seen nothing to fix the infrastructure that's crumbling across the country. and have you seen time and time again, especially in

2018, have you seen democrats run saying that they are going to be independent and they are going to be different and they are going to be focused on solutions for american people. instead all we have seen is a focus on impeachment and it is political theater. and that's at the cost to public policy. and i think people are sick of seeing that they really want to see people who are going to go to congress and do what they say they are going to do which is the meat and potatoes of getting things done for americans. ainsley: i'm sitting here thinking this is so amazing. country so great. other countries where women can't even drive and we have these beautiful, wonderful, strong women running for congressional seats raising kids, raising grandkids now. and trying to continue what america was founded on. why -- tell me -- let me go down the line and y'all tell me your stories. there are people out there that want to know who you are. what to know about you before they go to the polls. >> i was born in small town

alabama, i had a job when i was 16. two jobs when i was in college. i'm a small business owner, attorney by trade. growing my small business for the last 10 years. ainsley: what's your small business. >> we do grant consulting so i have worked with nonprofits, municipalities, school systems, defense contractors across the country. i have seen first handled the government programs that are effective and those that aren't. so fundamentally i believe in less government. you know, socialism amounts to getting free stuff and we believe in freedom. ainsley: you believe in working. how many kids do you have? >> i have three kids and my husband brian is an iraq war veteran and national guard. i am exciting to be running for this seat and certainly to have put together this conservative squad that we have launched today. if anybody is interested in joining that squad with us they can go to conservative squad.com. ainsley: michelle, how about you? >> i live in rural minnesota. i served 22 years in the senate. first female president of the minnesota senate. so if anyone tells you that the democrats are the party of the women, don't let them

tell you that because i was the first republican woman in the minnesota to serve as the president and then most recently i was the lieutenant governor and i have got two grown children and five grandchildren who i love dearly. ainsley: look at you. good. okay. nancy? >> i have been in business 20 years. i'm a state lawmaker now. even at the citadel or in business or in the state legislature, i have a history of delivering results. when you look at what is going on right now, the nonsense in d.c. americans are starving for results. our roads and bridges and schools, all these things need to be rebuilt and instead we are stuck on impeachment right now. nothing is getting done. and i'm really excited because this is, i love granddads everywhere. but this is not your grandfather's g.o.p. anymore. it's exciting to be a part of it and exciting about the momentum all of us are receiving not just in the districts we are running for but nationally. that's why we are here. we want people to sign up. get to know us and get to know what we are all about, solutions not controversies. it's helping not hate.

ainsley: we will have to chat. >> conservative squad.com. ainsley: tell me about yourself and i want to spend some time with you. >> i was 17 when i left my house and i had two full-time jobs for three years before i realized you know, getting paid 3.01 an hour was not going to cut it. i paid for my own way through college. cornell graduated consume cum le day. my daughter had eye surgery and sensitive to sunlight. went to parks committee to get a park bill with shade. before i knew it i was the parks committee chairman and got that park bill. i went on to run for city council and became the first female mayor ever elected as mayor of the city of irving. ainsley: that's great. >> last two and a half years i have been part of the trump administration working under secretary carson. there is things that we get done. as mayors we have to pass a balanced budget. congress needs to do the exact same thing. ainsley: if you want more

information, it's conservative squad.com? >> that's correct. we are donating a portion of the funds raised there to the folks running against the squad. ainsley: god bless you all. thanks for being with us. >> thanks for having us. ainsley: you are welcome. janice, how about these powerful women. janice: i love powerful women and love a powerful crowd. hi, guys.
