we've made it available for mother's day. you get a special card and first week you get a commemorative first edition for mom the week it comes out. don't forget to set your dvr and that lot your heart be troubled. i will send laura an early copy or she'll yell at me. >> laura: we'll pick it up. we are loaded up on "the ingraham angle." awesome job on flynn. this is "the ingraham angle" from washington. americans versus the continued shut down in so many states. tonight, i'm going to explain why these extended stay at home orders are now more about control than safety. plus two drugs have shown positive effects since slowing covid-19 spread. so why are they getting very different receptions? raymond arroyo is here for the seen and unseen moments from's n

endorsement and more details inside the medias taught us reade cover up for the most story tonight, hannity shredded this, it was awesome. we have to tell you. these new doj documents that show the fbi and trapped former national security advisor michael flynn. the liberal claims that we were exaggerating this all along. this is stunning. more on that ahead. but first, my thoughts on the end of day 44, america and shut down. remember back in march when new york governor andrew cuomo gave this very ominous warning? >> we are your future. where we are at today, you will be in three weeks or four weeks. >> laura: that forecast wasn't even close. there have been 22,384 deaths in the empire state as of this

evening. meaning the death rate there is 120 per 100,000. the next highest death rate in covid is new jersey with 6,006 of the 71 covid deaths, or 73 per 100,000. new york is and always in its own category of coronavirus suffering. and they did suffer and continue to. certainly not like florida, which locked down later than most states and is now reopening earlier. >> everyone in the media was saying florida was going to be like new york or italy and that has not happened because we understood we had a big diverse state, i have less than 500 people in the state of 22 million on ventilators as of last night, and i have 6,500 ventilators that are sitting idle. >> laura: it's worth asking, why are states with far less severe outbreaks, states that

are governed by democratic governors or blue state governors like virginia and north carolina, why are those still under strict lockdown measures? they claim the following data -- let's actually look at the data. virginia's death rate is 20 times less then new york. it's six per 100,000.ans who have lost their life to ccovid. what about virginians lives lost to skyrocketing unemployment, substance abuse, domestic abusee both headed by conservative governors we know are already opening. they are taking a whole of state approach to the situation and receiving nonstop criticism from the left for doing so. "the angle" warned you weeks ago that liberals would try to keep their state lockdown as long as

possible. whatever their actual covid numbers were regardless of the economic carnage that this was causing. virginia governor ralph northam really in a category of his own. he wants to reopen as slowly as possible. >> a percentage of positive tests and the number of hospitalizations, both track down word over 14 days. enough capacity in our hospital beds, we nee need to sustain oue supply. we cannot and will not lift restrictions the way you turn on a light switch. >> laura: the numbers in virginia are low. they are among the lowest in the country. north carolina has even a lower covid death rate, three per 100,000 which is 20% less than new york's death rate. governor roy cooper unmoved by the data and last week he extended his states lockdown

until may 8th! makes no sense. north carolinians didn't take kindly to that. protesters storm the state capitol yesterday to demand that cooper rescind his stay-at-home order. what does the state do? the state responded by arresting four of them including an organizer. for merely stepping onto the sidewalk outside the governor's mansion. i kid you not. my question is, where is the media? the media exist to do what? to answer that we the people retain our rights not just to tell my people that people agree with, but to speak out against the powerful. and especially our politicians buried that the whole point, isn't it? or does our press believe free speech only worth protecting for issues they like, like gun-control, women's rights, climate change. the truth is this covid crisis has exposed the american media

for what they are. these people are control freaks! check out this headline from cnn. the article says china, despite being where the virus first emerged, has coped with the ensuing pandemic far better than many other countries. the article goes on to tout the "benefits of a strong government and centralized planning." while exposing the limitations of private industry to respond quickly, particularly in the health care sector. wait a second! centralized planning? limitations of private industry? i'm going to translate that for you. "communism good, capitalism and evil" that's shorthand. the elites don't serve the working people, they rule over them. social control over large populations is achieved through fear and intimidation and suppression of free thought.

conditioning the public through propaganda is also key. new dogmas replace good old-fashioned common sense. >> the advice from the expert is clear could wear a mask for the protection of other people. the vice president chose not to. he should've worn a mask that. >> where a mass to protect. maybe mike pence wants to catch already and be put out of his misery. >> that's nice. was chris cuomo wearing a mask out in the hamptons the other week? they say the whole mask thing is settled science. of course, it's not. they know it. our own experts have come from masks aren't necessary to mask are essential. you have to wear one if you go jogging in a few weeks' time. rush limbaugh made a great point on the radio the other day and he said the virus itself as it

weakens, the media that's been selling panic, panic, panic for weeks, weeks, weeks, they have fewer images to sell the hysteria to justify continued lockdowns. but the masks? they are a constant reminder. you see the mask and you see you are not safe, not back to normal, not even close. well, enter dr. fauci. >> it's not going to disappear from the planet which means as we get into next season, in my mind, it's inevitable that we will have a return of the virus or may be it never even went away. >> laura: wait a second. on the what scientific basis is he saying that? is it settled science that this coronavirus will come back for sure in the fall? no, it's not settled science. here is a totally different view from france apostle's preeminent

infectious disease expert, dr. dr. raoult. >> the bell curve, it goes like this. so the rebound story is a fantasy invented based on the spanish flu which started in the summer and therefore has nothing to do with this. epidemics begin, they accelerate, they culminates. this is the moment the maximum transmit ability. they decrease and they simply disappear and we don't know why. >> laura: the last batch of coronavirus we dealt with was sars. it started in november and ended in july. why aren't any media types you're questioning dr. fauci's assertions, no disrespecting his amazing experience and all the work he's done, but that's quite an assertion. it spreads absolute fear and panic. why isn't any good news in this fight against the coronavirus ever taken to heart? it's usually dismissed, usually. by a lot of the experts and most of the blue state governors.

the answer isn't based in science or good journalism, perhaps. so the only answer is election-year politics is trumping practical thinking. and perhaps even trumping real science. now that is a national tragedy, if that is the case. and those are my thoughts at the end of day 44, america in shutdown. all right. first it was the people, and the elected officials are fighting back against the burdensome shutdown orders. just days ago illinois state rep got a judge to strike down democrat governor j.b. critzer's draconian state at home order. representative, the judge in your case called the order a civil rights violation. so why did you find this order yourself to be such an egregious abuse of power? >> thank you very much but he

also referred to our governor as shredding the constitution. that's what's so frustrating about the state of illinois. no one has been asking any questions. i asked the question of what the governor's powers were the first day he offered his pandemic order, the emergency order. i'm a prison term representative so nobody knew that question. i began to look and sure enough i discovered an article that the emergency management agency act that was passed in the late '70s and it was passed for the express purpose of limiting the governor's powers to 30 days. everyone as you spoke where all of this began and we were told we were given models, given ideas, given the scientific information that millions of people were going to die and everyone was unsure so we kind of settled in and the governor has got 30 days to figure something out. >> laura: sorry to interrupt,

but i want people watching right now to understand you as a first term representative where doing exactly what you were supposed to do, and what a generalist is supposed to do, they are supposed to be digging into this stuff. but you are a first termer. you are representing your people's interests. you find out that this order only has legitimacy for 30 days. okay. again. you, a first-term representative figured this out. this is how the government responded to your lawsuit. check it out. >> the suit itself was extraordinarily irresponsible. looking to gain some celebrity for himself. it's we believe will be able to get it overturned but it's extraordinarily irresponsible and it sends exactly the wrong message. >> laura: he said it is disgusting and irresponsible

what you did. what do you say to the governor tonight? >> i say we've seen this happen many times throughout history. even the history of our great nation, it takes one person to stand up on a wrong and if we ignore it -- you said something on your show that was pretty profound. people will look at the headlines and they failed to read the information and search out the data. that's what the problem with the american people are. we look across our nation and we see 30% of eligible voters show up to vote, that is a tragedy and that is a disgrace to the men and women of our country who served for that right to vote. his power is challenged and he does not like it. >> laura: the powerful want to keep people behind the lines including the state. you are supposed to sit down, stay in your home, and never come out again. over in kentucky, let's move on. a lot to take on tonight. the banning of state travel is itself under legal attract

has joined a lawsuit challenging the travel ban. he says it's unconstitutional. the attorney general joins me now. reports say that you were initially a defendant in the lawsuit, being the state ag. but then you filed a motion for a switcheroo. explain why that happened. that was kind of interesting. >> i appreciate you having me on tonight. we decided to switch our position in the litigation because we wholeheartedly believe in the attorney general's office that this order is overbroad and unconstitutional. it is not nearly tailored in a way that is consistent with the constitution and the responsibility to help flatten the curve. kentucky, our health care workers, first responders all have unique challenge in confronting this pandemic. in the attorney general's office, we also have a responsibility to defend

vigorously that's what kentuckians expect about the person that's in this position. we have the responsibility proceeded in that particular manner to defend the constitution here in the commonwealth. >> laura: i want to put up on the screen something so people have a sense of how things are in kentucky. again, every life lost as a tragedy, to this virus and all the other horrible things that are currently happening to our health care system. flu and pneumonia deaths in kentucky, 2,267 the season. covid deaths, 213. to your knowledge, attorney general cameron, has the state ever considered shutting down or stopping travel because of what ended up being a pandemic flu season epidemic flu season at various junctures throughout this year for the state of kentucky and other states across this country?

did they ever talk about shutting kentucky down for that? >> i'm a young man but to my knowledge those restrictions have not occurred before and it's interesting to note that if you look at tennessee which has fewer per capita deaths than the commonwealth, kentuckians are actually restricted from going there even though we have more deaths per capita here in kentucky. so again, it strikes at the arbitrary nature of the restrictions. that's why we are in court fighting against it. not because we want to score any particular points, but it's the right thing to do as it relates to the constitution. as you noted, we are sensitive to the concerns about the pandemic and recognize that kentuckians are doing everything they can to flatten the curve. >> laura: you've already flatten the curve. attorney general cameron, we've got to move on. but you flatten the curve. the point was to save the health care system, correct, and make sure you have enough ventilators. did you say the health care

system and do you have in the ventilators, yes? >> yes. if you look at some of our medical providers, they say they have more than enough capacity in their hospitals. we've done our job and now it's time to get our economy going again. >> laura: he has a very, very slow roll process to get the kentucky economy back, but it's going to begin a very slow phase on may 11th, he announced that today. attorney general cameron, thank you for looking out for kentuckians, their civil rights, and their health. we really appreciate it. what are the effects of these draconian measures? we have t to to expand our conversation. turns out flattening the curve in many cases to end up flattening much of the health care industry. what am i talking about? we have thousands of beds meant for covid patients that are sitting empty and my next guest warns that some hospitals may shut down permanently, why, because elective surgeries where they make all their money is

basically coming to a standstill. joining me now, rick jackson, chairman and ceo of jackson health care. rick, what has to be done immediately to reverse this troubling trend of hospitals across the country reporting near catastrophic losses in some cases? >> thank you, laura. i'm glad to be with you. first of all, we are all sitting at home watching tv and tv and witnessing all this drama that's happening in new york. what that has caused is the average person thinks is the average hospital is overrun with covid patients and can't do anything else. less than 10% of the hospitals have that problem. 66% of hospitals are empty right now sitting around, they are laying off people. there are restrictions that the government has put on for not only elective surgery. we are talking about plastic surgery. we are talking about cataracts surgery and other surgeries that are very important.

that has had more empty beds than the history of health care and has laid off more unemployed people in health care in the history of health care. look, it's really important to understand, health care is about 20% of our u.s. economy. $3.6 trillion, $10 billion a day. and yet we have furloughed, mayo clinic has furloughed 30,000 people, health care workers. >> laura: you are throwing them on the screen, and rick. we are putting a screen so you can see just what happened at major health care centers. for a lows cuts furloughs, staff cuts. as we are trying to phase health care, these poor health care workers who are supposed to be putting in pacemakers, parkinson's disease, adjustments to treat -- what are we going to do? i want to give americans a sense of how devastating all of this is as you mention to the greater

economy. according to the bureau of economic analysis, half of the decline in our first quarter gdp is from the health care industry collapsing. rick, 15 seconds. could it get worse if we don't turn this around? >> we merely have to do three things. number one, we've got to remove all government restrictions on all patient services, outpatient services and positions. we've got to keep the ppe and tests coming because we are going to need it. three, we need to get out of the way of physicians and hospitals. they know how to deal with this, they are used too controlling infections in a hospital. they know when they can help conditions to make things safer for everybody. >> laura: i enjoyed your piece in the "newsweek" as well. i learned a lot. >> thank you. >> laura: coming up, after spending weeks dismissing hydroxychloroquine, dr. fauci is now touting another drug. the question is why and is it

effective? we hope all new drugs could be. remember the arizona man who made headlines after drinking fish tank cleaner? there is a shocking new twist to that story. stay tuned. (somber music) - this is an urgent message

♪ >> the data shows that remdesivir has a clear cut, significant effect in diminishing the time to recovering.im whato never you have clear-cut evidence that a drug works, you have an ethical obligation to immediately let the people who were in the placebo group know that they can havehe access. >> laura: that definitely sounds encouraging but dr. fauci should apply that same logic to hydroxychloroquine which the association of american physicians and surgeons points

outt has a 91% success rate. we hope remdesivir and other potential covid treatments pan out but well o have to ask a few questions. is it safe, we don't know. they might do emergency authorization. hydroxychloroquine was approved decades ago. number two, is it cost-effective? remdesivir is expensive and it be hard to scale up. hydroxychloroquine is obviously cheap and widely available. joining me now, ceo of fox hill cardiology. what's your read of theseio interim resorts, they haven't been peer reviewed, they haven't been published which is always a complaint about b some of the hydroxychloroquine reports. but there seems to be cuttinghy down of the time for recovery in some of the interim analyses. >> as a physician who is involved in this field and treats these patients on a daile basis, i look forward to any drug that, can provide both

effective, safe treatment, as well as hope to the broad american population. but very early, all we have is a press release from gilead. it appears to be treated very similar to a group that tremendous success rate with a very bearable safety protocol. i'm not so sure about remdesivir given its history with ebola to be quite so safe. but time willr tell. >> laura: there is a placebo used in this study. there was a placebo group and thereth was the remdesivir grou, correct? >> that's correct. >> laura: it helps someone due to covid, a percent mortality for the remdesivir group, that it also work in its favor.

>> it also raises ethical concerns that you would use the placebo group when you have the data that we've had for quite some time. several months with hydroxychloroquine. the chinese came out with favorable data i'll be albeit in the smaller population in january. i'm glad they went away from this, but certainly significant ethical concerns about how this study was being done today. >> laura: dr. fauci heads the niaid which heads the remdesivir study. speaking favorably, does that matter given that connection, is there any division of conflict? >> conflict of interest is as you know appearance and you've got to be concerned when large pharma companies like gilead and others who have an interest in a vaccine are giving large

donations to the nih. i don't think any nongovernmental concern should give money to others, cdc or the nih. that way we know there are no conflict of interest. i don't think the cdc should accept outside money. i don't think the nih should. remember, you don't bite the hand that feeds you. such money may actually drive policy and research. >> laura: by the way,, i want to put up a headline if we have it. cbs news reported tonight, doctor, or today that turkey, their health minister reported great success treating covid-19 with broad use of drugs touted by trump. they gave it pretty much to everyone with symptoms. they had very limited lockdown orders, only on the weekends and only people under 20 and over 65 or locks in turkey and they have they say among the best mortality numbers in europe.

>> i think their numbers make a lot of sense. i think there lockdown numbers make a lot of sense too. we know 90% of time who's really at risk and turkey is really the model we should start emulating in that way. a lot to learn. >> laura: andea lots to take in, will be examining a lot of the different european reactions as the weeks go on because we need to learn from this. doctor, great to see you as always. remember when the media ran wild with the story and they blamedd president trump for an arizona man's death? >> late march, an arizona couple heard the president talking about hydroxychloroquine and they decided to ingest a fish tank cleaner. >> donald trump supporters believe him. there was a couple who drink cleaning fluid from the fishth tank. >> they had it laying around from cleaning fish tanks and the husband took it and died. >> laura: "the ingraham angle" can confirm tonight that the mesa county police department's homicide division is now

investigating that man's death.i joining me now with more detailh is the first reporter who brokeo this story, alana goodman, from "the washington free beacon." what do we know about the police investigation so far? they used this to tag trump early on but now we know a little bit more, don't we? >> we do. we learned yesterday the arizona police are actively investigating and looking specifically at statements made by gary's wife wanda. looking at statements for potential consistencies or inconsistencies. a homicide detective with the mesa policeci department contacd me yesterday and asked for copies of the recordings on the record interview that i had with wanda from earlierer this month and we turned over those materials and we were told that the investigation is active and ongoing. >> laura: alana, look, i love "the washington free beacon."

you do great reporting for it but you are not like legacy media. you have all these investigative reporters for all these big journals and all these big television outlets and it took you kind of digging into this to figure this out. i haven't seen a lot of coverage of this today. this ran -- i think this was dominating the news for two days because if they could tag trump with someone's death due to hydroxychloroquine, they were going to do it come hell or fish tank water. that's what they try to do here. unbelievable. but you put two and two together. >> the early reports of the case sounded all the, so we kind of started digging into it and see what we could find and we found that the man's wife was actually a big democratic donor. she had given thousands of dollars to democratic candidates the past few years, includingrs most recently a pro-science

resistance pac. this raised questions about her claim that she was -- was she acting on trump's advice. we also found evidence that he was a very intelligent guy, retired engineer. friends say they thought it was out of character. there were also court records that show that his wife had been previously charged with a domestic violence against him. >> laura: okay! again -- i love featuring reporters like alana because you frankly are doing the work that real journalists used to do and you stand as a testament to what can still be done if people have a little curiosity, a little common sense, and a little follow-through. alana, thank you for doing the story and thank you for being a reporter. really appreciate it. >> i appreciate it. >> laura: you take care.

why joe biden's whole candidacy with women might have backfired. the medias tara reade raymond arroyo has all the details on the seen unseen next.

>> live from america's news headquarters, i am ashley

strohmeyer. economic numbers are i in and as expected they are not pretty. business investments, all downs but for the first quarter of 2020. the worst, most likely yet to come with some economists expecting those chilling figures to double as the pandemic continues, even with some states gradually beginning to reopen. wall street shaking off main street spheres, however. the dow closing up over 500 points. partially because investors believe an economic rebound when the pandemic is over will be quick. but also because of hope raised by dr. anthony fauci who signaled a new drug called remdesivir can speed up the recovery of covid-19 patients. i am ashley strohmeyer. now back to the ankle now back to "the angle." >> laura: it's time for our seen and unseen segment where we look at the big cultural stories of the day. biden tries to talk away

joining us with all the issues is biden held a town hall yesterday that was, i guess, designed to bolter dell might bolster his with women. >> looks a little tone-deaf. to host a women's event while studiously avoiding the sexual abuse allegations of a woman, mainly former biden staffer tara reade. hillary clinton was along for the ride to indoor biden and after a painful start, it looked like they were in a hostage video, biden got the hillary endorsement. although it came during nap time i think, laura. he was nodding off, it was a mess. the biden camp sold this as a town hall which means three questions were answered, that

probing journalist michelle kwan, former olympic figure skater, i kid you not, what women stuck at home with domestic abusers should do during the quarantine. >> violence against women is a huge problem. one of thene leading causes of my life. our support for victims has to match the courage they show every day. >> please! this event went on for more than 30 minutes, laura print not one mention of tar a reade her allegations. biden did offer these solutions to survivors of domestic abuse. >> we should sleeping and, you know, to have the idea that we deal with trailers. we have to make sure all survivors, survivors of color, immigrants, survivors of -- native american survivors, older survivors,s, those with disabilities, the lgbtq

community. >> laura: my goodness. >> it was truly tragic. the only worst guest he could've brought on was harvey weinstein. if you are accused of accusing a subordinate in office, why do you bring out a woman who is best known defending a man who who abused a subordinate in office. the biden campaign circulated talking points to the surrogates that reportedly read, biden believes all women have a right to be heard and have their claims thoroughly reviewed, a the review by "the new york times" has led here are vps in waiting, amy klobuchar and stacy abrams responding to the reade allegations. >> your viewers shoulds. read s that. the case has been investigated. the vice president is a major leader on the mystic abuse and i think again the viewers should read the article. >>th we deserve to have the stoy

listen to investigated. "the new york times" did a deep investigation and they found that the accusation was not credible. i believee joe biden. >> laura: she believes biden. okay. let me first say this. tonight, we can tell our viewers that "the washington post" seems to be taking a turn against biden. they are saying you have to answer these claims. ruth marcus writing a piece saying it's imperative that he speak out. but look, he's got to himself address these allegations. relevant records have to be released. i think they are at a crossroads here, raymond on this issue. i do not think this is going away. poor old joel can't say lgbtq let alone speak for himself on this issue. >> "the new york times" came out and said, look, you are misusing our reports. we didn't clear him. we said there are questions here. for these twoth women, they are like two nasty girls in an

episode of "the bachelor." they are throwing this woman under the bus to get to this poor it's a sad moment for the biden campaign. >> laura: fraught with vp stakes, everybody wants to be vp. t will they be set? dumped from the ticket? you have another corona comeback, a classic corona climb back. >> yes. 35 years after it premiered, actor josh gad virtually reunited the entire guest of "goonies" for charity. he was joined by josh brolin , recently cut a new song with kenny g and a big band. listen to this. >> ♪ keep going your way ♪ i'll keep going my way ♪ coronavirus ♪ stay away from the door

>> it's snappy, laura. >> laura: yeah, that is snappy. let me just say it, virus, stay away from the door? you can apparently download it on her facebook page, twitter feed. i don't need the bouncing coronavirus ball oou on the vid. >> it's a bit much. >> laura: that's a little... the bouncing ball is cute but we don't want-- our bouncing ball o be cute. we don't want it to come anywhere near us. >> it's bouncing to the air, laura. >> laura: i love you are wearing your mask, raymond. coming up, the story is wild. it's buried in a sea of covid-19 news, but "the ingraham angle" has got its hands of the documents tonight in this case against michael flynn. we knew it was dirty, and these documents show that the fbi was trying to get him fired. very big. congressman devin nunes is up next. don't go away.

♪ >> laura: explosive new court documents suggest former national security advisor mike flynn was set up. who was he set up by? jim comey. handwritten notes unveiled that the fbi discussed using the 2017 interview with lynn to "get him vito live so we can prosecute hm or get him fired." in other words, to entrap them and ruin his career and later on, get at trump for the handwritten note ends with this intriguing little snippet. "if we are seen as playing games, the white house will be furious." joining now is congress when devin nunes, and john davis,

author for "the federalist." you've been digging into this and digging into it, but this has to be one of the more egregious abuses of power, given how we know how this thing went down now. your thoughts? >> given general flynn is going to have a ivcivil rights case and it's going to cost the government millions of dollars. secondly, hopefully there's going to be prosecutions for this matter. and the judge really has an opportunity here to step in and sanction these lawyers. and with all that said, laura, we brought you this, the house republicans brought you a snippet of this information back in 2018. we were mocked, we were told it was a joke and what we told you at that time not only was it true, we didn't even know the half of it. even right now we don't even have the half of it. there is more information coming out the rest of this week.

the evidence is continuing to pile up and down in general flynn's favor and that's what we told you and most of us knew knowing general flynn for nearly 30 years, the idea that he's a russian agent will be prosperous. >> laura: the way the meeting went down, the here is what wuhan said about that fateful flynn interview in 2018. >> placed a call into flynn. sent a couple over. hope you talk to them. sure. nobody else was there. they interviewed him in a will conference room and they lied to him. >> what did they think they were coming over therefor? >> i don't think he knew. i don't think we didn't tell him. >> laura: the hubris of comey,

my blood boils watching him, his manner, his dismissiveness of the rights of an individual. you have been digging into this tonight. tell us your thoughts. >> right. i think it's clear now that james comey will go down in history as the most corrupt fbi director in american history. he has had the worst reign, he has destroyed the fbi's reputation through his arrogance and corruption. he has made it more difficult according to a federal prosecutor i spoke to today for u.s. attorneys and fbi agents to get convictions across the country and that will forever change comey's legacy, this corrupt crew that he attempted against donald trump. >> laura: remember how this went down, congressman eunice congressman nunes, don mcgahn, i don't know if you walk him over. i do not know how this whole

thing went down. but you do. so remind us how it all went down. >> let's remember the most important thing in all of the russia hoax mass and we heard about illegal leaks for the most illegal leak at the highest level where the transcript of flynn, the incomig national security advisor for the president of the united states having a conversation with the russian and basset areun leaked out to "the washington post" and other places, i believe. why james comey and the fbi weren't crawling all over washington, d.c., trying to find out, we just lost an important take. we that somehow leaked out from the ic. what did they do? they did nothing. to answer your question, what they did in that process, what they did is they had mccabe, the deputy fbi director call up

general flynn and say something like, oh, we want to send a few people over there. is that okay? he did not have legal counsel and they set him up. >> laura: the media, they do not escape culpability in all oy this because rather than being real journalists, they were rooting against this president and his administration from the start. real quick. let's watch. >> this guy was not only acting as literally a foreign agent, not metaphorically. >> what we all know now, that flynn was a double agent. >> what the white house got was the rebuke that flynn was somehow entrapped by the fbi. wasn't just a judge who did that, it was michael flynn. >> will any of them come on television tomorrow and apologize or do a mea culpa? will any of them have that decency? >> it'll never happen despite this entire collusion hoax could have never been perpetrated without their willing work in

it. they will never return their pulitzer prizes that they got for reporting fake news. they will never -- >> laura: thank you so much. we will stay on this tomorrow. a lot more to get to. last bite coming up.
