the media mob. we're never going to follow them because they get away with lying constantly, it's pretty sad. let not your heart be troubled, why? because laura ingraham is standing by with the greatest show on the face of the earth and how do i know that? because i know. >> laura: because i told you to say that, thank you, you are well trained. >> sean: that came from my heart. >> laura: thank you, you had a great show, talk about a packed lineup and we are going to pick up where you left off, hannity, thanks so much. i'm laura ingraham, this is a "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight and as i said, let's get right to it. the phony gatekeepers of democracy, that's the focus of tonight's angle. once upon a time in a place called washington, d.c., there were people called democrats. although they hailed from parts near and far, they constantly

reminded us of one thing they all had in common. their love of whistle-blowers. >> i would just like to say to these whistle-blowers as potential whistle-blowers, you are the patriots. >> this particular impeachment episode demonstrates anything, there are a lot of brave people who are watching who will come forward with evidence of wrongdoing. >> we need to protect the whistle-blower. >> laura: corruption, fraud, intimidation, democrats and the press claimed to be so committed to fighting all of it. they also opined on the importance of protecting our election from any interference. >> how do we protect our democracy, what is going to happen on election day -- i'm very worried. >> we are under attack now by the russians in terms of the integrity of our elections, we expect they would try to intervene in our election next year.

>> we need to say this every time we are on air, we aren't ready to protect our election systems in 2020. >> laura: valid questions looming around the election of 2020, they all have a convenient case of amnesia about their previously cherished principles. tonight we review claims by regular american citizens of firsthand knowledge of what happened in the selection. these are individuals who swore and the signed affidavits alleging what they believe is fraudulent or suspicious behavior involving vote counting and ballot processing in key states, there are reportedly hundreds of such sworn affidavits from poll workers and observers including democrats, many have been thrown out, many debunked but many still have not. these americans, these whistle-blowers deserve to be taken seriously and at least heard without threat of repris reprisal. but that's not happening. in fact, this show has had to

conceal the identity of a poll worker in clark county, nevada, who in a sworn affidavit claimed to witness potential voter fraud. >> the biden van was parked along this stretch, i could see these people handling what appeared to be white envelopes, tickle people ripping them up and turning and facing the van and as i got closer, i thought those are ballots, it's kind of -- what are they doing? >> laura: more than 100 g.o.p. poll workers allege not only intimidation but obstruction, that's odd while votes are being counted in detroit, why would that happen? jazmine early said election workers consistently attempted to obstruct her ability to see them. another observer said he

contacted detroit police to file an assault complaint after an election worker shoved him away from the table. there is also a sworn testimony of irregularities during the georgia recount, a poll manager with 20 years of ballot handling experience in the atlanta area provided this troubling account. inside the box were stacks of ballots, there was a difference in the texture of the paper, there were no markings on the ballots to show where they come from and where they had been processed. observing these ballots, approximately 98% constituted votes for joe biden, i only observed two of these ballots as votes for president donald j. trump. likewise a fulton county poll observer made this stunning claim -- ballots appear to be perfectly filled out as if they

were preprinted with the presidential candidate selected. in cobb county a poll observer who said she's a registered democrat also noticed something odd about many of the ballots, hundreds of these ballots seemed impeccable. the bubble selections were perfectly made, only observed sections in black ink and it all happen to be selections for biden. no corresponding envelopes seen in sight -- i believe there was fraud committed in the presidential election and questioned the validity of the georgia recount process. again, that's from a democrat. but the media, they don't care. they are barely even interested in the publicly known mistakes and problems in george's initial vote count. so far this week, county officials admitted to uncovering not one, not two, but three computer memory cards containing thousands of uncounted votes, mostly for trump.

in cobb county alone, election officials allegedly forgot to upload 2700 votes. fixing those mistakes netted trump of 1400 votes -- that's not obviously enough to change the outcome in georgia, it's still no small matter for those people who voted. presidential elections have been decided by smaller margins -- remember bush v gore in florida by just over 500 votes. stacey abrams lost georgia by a margin four times greater than biden's current lead over trump and we are still pretending as if she was robbed just last night. >> it's time now for donald trump to acknowledge that the legal deficiencies of the system that he is no longer the president and unlike what happened to me where we had enough evidence to go to federal court and to see changes made, he has to admit there is no evidence of widespread fraud, he can continue to fight but he's going to lose. >> laura: i love how she says he's no longer the president -- yes he is. accepting tall tales like that

from democrats while dismissing g.o.p. voter fraud claims, it's not just wrong, it's an affront to our entire electoral system. the american press corps and their democrat allies spent years -- this went on insisting trump was colluding with the russians to throw the election in his favor in 2016 with zero credible evidence is aggressively uninterested in protecting the integrity of the 2020 vote. >> you're doing the opposite of debunking them, you are bunking them. >> i see no evidence of voter fraud. >> at the president is going to claim there is widespread voter fraud, you would think we would have significant evidence. >> i don't think there's any lending these credibility or examining the merits of the claims because they simply don't exist. >> laura: okay, has the press bothered interviewing these whistle-blowers? of course not.

they see more content lobbying embarrassing softball questions to joe biden which he still swings at end of misses. >> what do you say americans, especially immigrant americans who came to the united states looking for political stability and seeing all the things the president is doing? >> with the president is doing now is really -- it's going to be another incident where he will go down in history, it's going to be certified. we are going to end up making clear that we won. >> laura: that was terrifying. what's hard to fathom is how democrats who swallowed the rush of meddling claims hook, line, and sinker refused to recognize american citizens calling out what they think is extremely suspicious and in some cases alleged voter fraud.

there have been a lot of very outlandish claims made including one about a global effort to hack voting machines -- so far, not backed up by evidence that i have seen. whether the ultimate outcome in a particular state would change if all this is worn out. some of that hasn't been laid out, but those are largely besides the point that we are making tonight. if election laws are not applied and not followed consistently, if they are changed midcourse without proper legislative authority, it's reasonable to start questioning motivations. and taking a serious, deeper look. if any vote is either improperly counted or discarded, it doesn't matter. one illegal vote, one illegal vote cast nullifies a legal vote for the other candidate and it cancels it out. it undermines trust in the system and that itself is corrosive. and that is the angle.

two republicans on the wayne county board of commissioners say they were bullied into certifying election results for joe biden there, their initial concern with the fact that voting totals can be reconciled in 70% of absente absentee counting precincts in detroit. democrats viciously attacked and threatened the g.o.p. canvassers over their concern, even calling them racist. despite all of that intimidation, monica palmer and bill hartman rescinded their votes and they joined the ingraham angle exclusively, thank you both for being here and having the courage to speak out -- i want all of our viewers to see how you both were treated during this process, watch. >> the stain of racism that you, william hartmann and monica palmer have covered yourself and

is going to follow you throughout history. your grandchildren are going to think of you like bull connor or george wallace and lord knows, when you go to meet your maker, your soul is going to be very, very warm. >> laura: he's unhinged. monica, this is the kind of harassment that you faced after your initial vote. he's a fairly prominent business person, what have you experienced since? >> it's continued, he's used his social media platform to repeatedly doxx me, posting my email address, my home address and encouraging people to stop by their house and share their anger with me. >> laura: are you kidding me? this man with all of his money and business contacts and social media decides to pick on

you in what social media has said you can't do and frankly to put your life in danger, that's what he's doing. have any of your critics looked into any of your concerns over the vote totals in detroit that were not in your view adding up? >> they have, we've had some other people come along and look into those things. normally when we get -- when we are at the meeting we get what's called an over under report and we didn't get that report this year or this time. instead, we were given it orally and we had to record everything by hand. >> laura: "the washington post"' is reporting tonight that one of the two members of the four member canvassing board said he's seeking a delay in the certification for the state vote calling for an audit, the board

is scheduled to vote monday, i do think with all the potential problems, if any of them are true, an audit is appropriate. tell us how important that breaking news' tonight about accountability and transparency, it's starting to resonate with other officials in michigan. >> yeah, it's absolutely needed. the purpose of a canvas is to make sure every legal vote is counted, that you have complete and accurate documentation. when you have a precinct that is unbalanced without an explanation, that doesn't satisfy the requirements, that is why we initially voted no for certification. after some deliberation, he offered an audit for unbalanced precincts, an audit comprehensive should be able to dig down and find the explanation for why the number of voters doesn't match the number of ballots cast. i'm excited to see that there is

a spread for this desire to see the rules followed consistently across the state. >> laura: the number of ballots don't equal the number of votes cast, when you say out of balance, is that correct? and my understanding correctly? >> yes, it is, that's what i mean by the over-under report. we want everything to balance like your checkbook balance is to your bank account and if everything balances, then you can count it, but if it doesn't ballots, then you cannot count it. that's our goal, to try to get everything in balance. >> laura: you rode in your affidavit that after the public comment. mack began and dozens of people made personal remarks against you and bill, the comments made, these accusations -- threatened you and members of your family, how are you and your family holding up in the face of these unconscionable threats? >> i'm very lucky to have a

supportive family, they are behind me 100%, we are taking it one day at a time and being thankful for each other. my parents are a little concerned, rightly so with what they are seeing in the news and a social media, so we are just doing the best we can to stay safe. >> laura: quickly, are there any local reporters in michigan who find what's happening to you and monica to be very distressing? and curious about your allegations of these discrepancies? >> we've had a lot of reporters ask us for interviews, we held off because of counsel said at this time we should give interviews. my attorney mark madden told me not to give any interviews, yours is actually the first one. we are trying to wait until we

see what happens with the state canvassers. >> laura: it seems like it's obvious that this should happen and here's a hint to wayne county canvassing board, if you're going to have a zoom call, you've got to turn the mute off because people couldn't hear what was being said, that was a cute little mistake as well. thank you for giving the exclusive to "the ingraham angle," we take every allegation seriously and we take every concern from people who know this world of canvassing and counting and the process very seriously. we really appreciate your courage as american citizens and speaking out, thank you. the smug dismissal and attacks on legitimate voter fraud affidavits and the people who signed them this emblematic of a troubling mentality that is all over the left. it's the push to cancel and

beyond cancel, destroy their political opponents ability to make a living. harvard university students -- get this -- are demanding that trump administration officials be preemptively barred from campus for challenging election results. in a letter, the students demand the university boldly confront trump administration alumni invited to speak or not to invite them to speak at all. joining me now is carter, graduate student at the harvard kennedy school -- i would like to say i'm surprised by this, but i'm not, sadly. >> thank you for having me, it comes as no surprise to a lot of us conservative students at harvard, we hate to see this happening, it is flat out censorship. the authors have reasoned that ironically they are trying to censor this president because of the subversion of democratic principles, the first amendment in free speech is a democratic

principle and they are throwing that out the window. there's been calls of universities to cancel trump administration officials across the country, we at the leadership institute for campus reform have known that better than anybody, i've worked countless times against texas schools try to do this in a red state, now we are fighting -- we are not going to let it stand, we don't want to. >> laura: this is why another four years where you can actually get control over these little dictators at these universities that can a lot of federal dollars would be really nice to do. i've got to read a passage in this letter stating we remain fully committed to free speech and debate, a difficult subject, we do not believe that individuals would engage in this behavior it should be legitimized or rewarded by the university, isn't that the opposite of being committed to free speech?

don't invite anyone on who you disagree with? >> absolutely, they don't want trump administration officials they are, we hosted at harvard people from the nixon administration, clinton administration, we hosted eric holder after he was held in contempt of congress and we hosted the late secretary-general of the palestinian liberation organization, the only thing these people have in common is they should be allowed to speak there because harvard is a space for ideas, it's a space for us to communicate and to battle out ideas, but when you try to box out people with ideas, when you try to censor conservatives, that's not what's happening and these progressives know that, they just don't want those ideas to permeate people's minds because they know we're right. >> laura: what it really says is how afraid they are. if you're confident about your ideas, you're happy to talk to anybody about them, if you're confident you're going to win the day, you don't mind talking to other people, i certainly don't. it's a very curious thing, they

are a lot less secure than one would expect harvard students to be. that's an old of dartmouth's light on harvard, not deserved i'm sure, thanks so much for the report. after all the incompetence we've seen the election how do we make sure it never happens again? congressman jim jordan tells us the plan in moments. plus are democrats reaping what they sowed after years of peddling conspiracy theories about trump? mollie hemingway explains that, next. a majority of adults who took ozempic® reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it. here's your a1c. oh! my a1c is under 7!

of republicans believe trump rightfully won the election, 63% suspect the election was rigged. those figures should alarm every american and our leaders should not treat them with mockery but rather come up with a plan to safeguard the integrity of future elections. congressman jim jordan shares that concern and is demanding action. he joins me now. congressman, is this not something that both parties would benefit from given how corrosive it is for people not to believe in the outcome? >> i think you're exactly right, there are 73 million americans who have real concerns about this election, i've said this several times. if i would've told you before election day that the republicans were going to keep the senate and pick up 12 seats in the house, they are going to make gains in every state legislature, president trump would get 10 million more votes he got in 2016 but he'll come up short, you would've said there is no way that would happen but you put on top of that fact

pattern all of the irregularities that we've seen, all the affidavits that have been signed, what you just had on with bill and monica the story they told for saying we would kind of like to know what happened. we are saying with all this taking place, why don't we investigate, that's our job, that's what we are supposed to do and i hope chairman nadler will start an investigation and we can begin to ask some of the same questions you've been asking now for several weeks. >> laura: mr. russia collusion himself had this to say on cnn last night. >> it's staggering that a sitting president of the united states would try to overturn the results of a perfectly fair and well executed election. he is dragging down our democracy, he's causing millions of americans to distrust our own election system. >> laura: this after the obama fbi spies on the trump campaign before they actually won the election.

adam schiff talking about the election integrity is laughable. >> your opening was so good, this is the same adam schiff that told us we could not know the identity of the person they were trying to use, the anonymous whistle-blower who worked for joe biden who was biased against the president, we couldn't know who this individual was that they were trying to use to remove president trump from office and now these same people attack people like bill and monica for saying this is the united states of america, we should have an election everyone can have confidence in. that drives me crazy, i would've loved to have had a chance to cross-examine that whistle-blower under oath in the american people would have liked to know who this individual was who was the reason the democrats were trying to move the guy they elected the president of the united states. we've got time to get to the bottom of this, we have 25 days, they took a year and a half to go after president trump with this impeachment, let's get to

the bottom of it. >> laura: what happened to being patient? breaking news tonight in pennsylvania, a commonwealth court judge issued a ruling directing the elections board to exclude -- this is overturning the prior ruling -- exclude challenge 2,349 ballots from the certified returns of elections in the county of allegheny, that's 2300 votes. they are thrown out. someone is casting ballots in a manner that were originally counted as okay and valid that it turns out weren't and we don't need a a congressional investigation? >> what happened in georgia, they found 5,000 ballots that we have never seen before and never been counted. two and a half weeks since the election. all of this just points to let's investigate and the real question is why don't democrats want to do it? that is the best question to ask when it goes to motive, why didn't democrats want observers

to watch the polls when the ballots are being counted? why did they allow certain things to happen in some counties in pennsylvania but not others? let's find out? >> laura: why are they doxxing this poor woman monica, she's an american citizen and where are all the feminists out there who want to stand up for women in the workplace, women who are speaking their mind. where are the feminists. >> you cannot doxx who took the time to be a good citizen and work at the board of elections, you can doxx her but you can keep an anonymous whistle-blower from ever having to testify and come forward, it's ridiculous. >> laura: congressman, thank you so much. if the left is looking for someone to blame for the election results being so widely questioned, they should look in the mirror. before the election started, media breathlessly framing all of trump's comments and actions like this. >> we are seeing the undermining of our democracy and our

election. >> undermining public confidence in the election and doing a lot of damage to the integrity of the democratic process. >> the president has sought to undermine the integrity of the election process for months. >> of course these charlatans spent the last four years perpetuating one of the most damaging lies in our country's history. >> showed that trump didn't actually won the election in 2016. >> we will never know whether the russian intervention was determinative in such a close election. >> we won the election, it was stolen. >> trump knows he's an illegitimate president. >> laura: joining me now, mollie hemingway senior editor at that federalist, take it away. you hit this in your piece about how the democrats are reaping what they have planted. >> it's amazing, you see you had a few short weeks of people litigating election results in a court of law and a lot of

powerful people in the media and elsewhere have said this undermines the country to in any way question this very close election in which you have this major uptick in mail in ballots which everybody knows are more susceptible to fraud and at the same time, decreases scrutiny of those ballots. something totally reasonable which is people are questioning the legitimacy of this brand-new thing that we all rushed into this year and what is shocking for people hearing these comments is we just live through four years of many prominent people spending much of every day questioning whether donald trump or asserting donald trump is not a legitimate president, this began immediately after his surprise election in november of 2016 and it continued for years and a really dramatic fashion. these were high-profile people, he pictured some of them throughout the media, throughout the political establishment who believed in a russia collusion

hoax, they claim to belief and they perpetrated that on the american people saying that the donald trump was not the legitimate president, that he had stolen the election by colluding with russia to become president. this was a widely held conspiracy theory. people won pulitzer prizes for perpetrating this and it never had the evidence at all. they sat quietly by while other people pushed it in the same people are saying you're not allowed to have any questions about an election that has all sorts of suspicion about it. >> laura: sorry to talk over you but there's so much here, the fact that we have all these american citizens who signed a sworn affidavits saying this is what i saw and it's not at all copacetic and some of it is not legal. and they are doxxed or intimidated and called a racist or stupid or dismissed and laughed at by the american media, that's how they think you're going to unite the country?

>> there was no rumor or innuendo or piece of unfounded gossip that was too ridiculous for many people throughout the media to pursue and amplify and raise to the level that we even appointed a special counsel to spend years trying to find evidence of this thing that didn't happen. and yet you had sworn affidavits from people, american citizens and the media show zero interest in investigating this. they are putting the entire burden of proof on the trump legal team rather than thinking maybe as journalists they can themselves look into this, like we have at "the federalist," but the disparity of how they handle that delusional russia collusion hoax could not be greater, they try to pretend like they didn't fall for this or perpetrate this russia collusion hoax, it damage to the contrary, it really damage to the country and they should be held accountable for what they did. >> laura: remember all the tedious bumper stickers #notmypresident.

they believe those on for the next five years until they donate their cars i'm sure to charity. thank you so much, great to see you tonight. why did a california judge just ruled at strip clubs are allowed to stay open but not churches? pastor john macarthur has been battling the state this entire pandemic, he's an american hero, he is here next to respond. - i didn't know why my body was moving on its own.

remain open, did that make any sense to you? me either. in california, a judge orders a san diego strip club to be reopened, apparently not being able to get a lap dance infringes on free speech. meanwhile california churches are still fighting for the right to open their doors once again. my next guest has been a thorn in the side of california's covid crusaders from the very beginning, pastor john macarthur, of great community church joins us now. pastor macarthur, it's wonderful to see you again. tell me, how do strip clubs deserve more constitutional protection than churches at this point? >> thank you again, it's an honor to be with you but let me give you big picture. america is an amoral free fall. look at it as i would as a pastor. the murder of babies in the womb, and if you survive the womb, you try to seduce them into transgender deviation when you're young, if you survive

that you corrupt them with a godless education, if you survived that you have divorce in the family, and if they grow to be adults, you ground them in a sea of pornography. this is a nation so far down in the sewer of immorality and wickedness that nothing surprises me. in fact, i would be shocked if a judge said open all the churches and close all the strip clubs. >> laura: the "l.a. times" previously reported this about your churches and coronavirus outbreak strikes l.a. mega-church that defied public health orders, but that ended up being not true. tell us what really happened, the last time we had you on, you were inspiring me because i'm a roman catholic and a lot of my catholic churches, very limited in who can go and kind of rolled over at least early on, they got better as time went on. tell me what happened what the "los angeles times" claimed?

>> we had three part-time security guards who went to some event somewhere and i guess they were checked and positive for whatever that is worth, three part-time security guards, none of them was ill and with a few days they were back at work. a times writer picked up on that and called it an outbreak at grace community church, they said about me that i had mocked covid and i was getting my due. it turned out, the health department came by and said there's no evidence of any covid here at all. they sent us a letter and said you are removed from our website as having any outbreak at all, we're talking about six, 7,000 people have been in church for months, no one ill, no one in the hospital and no one dies. a fitting illustration of the narrative focus being a lie.

>> laura: pastor, i actually think seeing gavin newsom at that swanky restaurant with his friends, no mask on, all close together -- it's more than hypocrisy, that's the easy thing to say. for me it speaks too -- he doesn't really believe what he's saying about covid. if he thought it was as deadly to him, he's in good shape, relatively young and his young friends, is he insane? he's putting them all in mortal danger. i think it speaks to his not really believing some of what he's saying. >> of course, because tha the statistics are in, 99% of people in california are not going to have any effect from covid. we know those statistics. what is going on? a little bit of history, go back to julius caesar, go back to napoleon, come into the modern

era, every revolution including hitler's revolution and revolution in russia, every revolution took place in the time when the powers of the people in authority were enlarged because of supposed emergency. power-hungry people are using this emergency to gain greater power. this is historic, it's nothing new. if people don't fight back there going to fall victim to whatever the intention of this revolution is. >> laura: thank you for staying open to my thank you for fighting for the truth and the gospel, we really appreciate it. speaking of california, bill wells is the mayor of the city of a in california, this morning he found out the county sheriff's department had superseded his orders and set their own deputies into handout fines and citations for violating covid rules.

you were big footed on this i guess but this is apparently legal but it seems heavy-handed, your response. >> it's a pleasure to be here. a couple weeks ago i got in front of the people and i said i hear the suffering you're having with your businesses, not to mention the isolation and oppression come all the health issues that go along with this and it seemed important to me that somebody stand up to those folks and so we asked our police department to deprioritize covid-19 calls. just today, we found out county supervisors have been struck with the sheriff's department to come in and give thousand dollars fines which means people have to go before a judge when they could possibly be convicted and have that on the record the rest of their life. >> laura: you can see someone shooting heroin on the sidewalk in many places in california, just step right over them. >> we can't take somebody to jail, we have trouble getting

someone to jail doing sex trafficking and we have a fight to get them to jail but here we are criminalizing decent, hardworking, honest folks just trying to survive. to show up with a badge and a gun to frighten these people and make them criminals i think is horrifically wrong. >> laura: where are all the criminal justice advocates? government gavin newsom tweeted this out, due to the rise in covid-19 cases, california issuing a limited stay-at-home order, stay inside with beautiful weather in california, not essential work must stop, mayor wells, your county is in the purple tear. this is how stay-at-home orders work? >> we are talking about a virus that has 99.4 oh percent survival rates. i can understand if people were dying of ten, 20% of the

population that gets the disease would die from it. but the consequences of this, the mental health problems, the divorce problems, we have mental health up -- we have suicide up 145% in certain counties, divorce rate is up 34%, alcoholism is a 40%. >> sending people back inside, the curfews have not proven to work at all, anywhere. i don't know what studies they are citing in europe. thank you, keep in touch with how things are going. a shocking story out of virginia that's going to outrage every american who cherishes his or her rights to self-defense, don't go away.

♪ >> laura: one of the biggest gun shows of the year was supposed to kick off this friday in northern virginia about 25 miles from the nation's capital, but virginia's democrat attorney general mark herring stepped in and shut it all down over covid fears. and then he smugly bragged about it on twitter, putting hundreds of thousands of virginians at risk for the sole purpose of selling guns is just not worth it. joining me now is ted moorman, who was supposed to be at the gun show tomorrow, you don't have a brick-and-mortar, so these gun shows support of your family, your livelihood, and that of so many others, don't they? >> yes, ma'am, exactly, that is correct. >> laura: what is going on here, this is a constitutional

right, second amendment right going to the hardware store is not to but you can go to the hardware store and no one is going to bother you there. >> exactly, we have had two covid restricted shows already although some people still feel like it's a violation of their rights, we all wore masks because contrary to people beliefs, we aren't the dregs of society, we do care about other people. we all wore a mask, there was nothing burnt down, no violence. this is with a roomful of guns and ammo, largely trump supporter's. you can walk across the parking lot to walmart and at some wear their masks don't. not only that, i ordered my parts for this show six months ago but two more shows coming up that are big, those parts are on the way. it's very scary and difficult -- i've been traveling all day so i didn't get to hear the tweet,

but i just really am insulted that somebody can think that we are just selling guns under the table, a bunch of rednecks picking barbecue out of their teeth and spitting tobacco juice on the floor. not following the rules written the majority of my clients are there for knowledge, they want to know the models and how to operate a firearm safely. i just ask this gentleman whoever he is, just come out to the gun show and see for himself if he would let us ever have one. >> laura: i've been to a bunch of these gun shows in virginia over the years, it's a very diverse crowd. these are new immigrants, black, white, hispanic, muslim, these are people from all walks of life. again, the same attorney general

are trying to do and it's frankly unconstitutional. >> thanks for having me on come on a big fan. >> laura: you're welcome, will next see what one of the shows. up next they shut out to a very special viewer in pennsylvania, stay with us.

>> laura: all right, before we go, i want to tell you but a very special "the ingraham angle" fan. we learn today she was hospitalized with covid, and

since the "angle" is one of the highlights of the day, can't have any visitors come i surprised her with a phone call this afternoon. all i have to say is she is amazing at 87 years young, bent on the mend for about five days in the hospital. her husband, age 87, is back at home in their house, they still them on their own. he is totally fine, doesn't have covid, they've been married for 61 years. god bless all of the struggling now, they are keeping a positive attitude. that is all the time we had tonight. mike emanuel and the "fox news @ night" team take it all from here. mike? >> mike: wishing her a speedy recovery. >> laura: thanks, mike. >> mike: breaking tonight, just hours away from a controversial report at the white house, two republican state lawmakers, the leaders of the michigan state senate house are reportedly heading to washington. we are working on getting more details on the focus of the meeting, but it comes a day after republicans sought to
