9:00 am
elana fox news alert, the biden state department claiming it helpful to rescue an american mother and her three children from life under the taliban. one problem, the team of veterans that actually went to afghanistan and brought them to safety say that is nowhere near the truth. and of the president is now facing bipartisan outrage over these six charter flights carrying u.s. citizens that remain installed in afghanistan. this is "outnumbered" and i'm kayleigh mcenany. here today my host emily compagno, julie banderas,
9:01 am
my fox nation cohost tomi lahren and charlie hurt who is also a fox news contributor. the state department is getting accused of a flat out lie. a group of military veterans help to get this american mother and her kids out of afghanistan, but when the federal government tried to claim it help to facilitate their escape, army veteran cory mills that the record straight. he says the idea that the state department should get credit is a "absolute nonsense." in the meantime, critics from both sides of the aisle calling out the biden administration over six private evacuation plates waiting to take off. take a look at the satellite images of the planes just sitting there on the tarmac at an airport in northern afghanistan. the state department has said it doesn't have a reliable means to confirm the details of these flights. but now, democratic senator richard blumenthal is speaking out.
9:02 am
he said he wants those planes cleared for takeoff and is furious at the government's "delay and inaction." it simply incredible. this mother and her three children, the state department didn't get them out, these veterans did. course the state department taking the credit, and this woman interestingly, she says the state department told her to go to the airport and when she got there the taliban and put a gun to her head. but i thought president biden told us of the taliban was guaranteeing safe passage to americans. that doesn't appear so, emily. >> emily: this story is so disheartening on multiple levels. at every moment and every junction we have nothing but lies coming out of the biden administration and i thought actually texas congressman ronnie jackson it quite well. he said that the only thing that biden administration seems to be good at is putting itself on the back for a job that was horribly done. as he points out, my constituents were left behind and then when veterans got these
9:03 am
guys out, the biden administration lies about its role in evacuating them. and here's the thing, let's take sacramento which has the largest afghan population in the united states. they are, almost 30 children are stranded in afghanistan and a congressman has been working with the school district back and forth to get them out, they received nothing but radio silence from the department of defense and the state department. that's what's so disheartening on top of all of this. on top of the lies is the utter radio silence from this administration and working all of the nonprofits and the veterans who are trying to get these americans out. one of the mothers of the children, the mother of three, she texted someone in the united states saying we ran away from the gate. the situation is very scary, to the anecdote that you lead with. she said the kids are crying and i saw my death. that's what these americans are facing and to keep in mind as
9:04 am
well that's just sacramento. there are two other school districts who also said that they have almost three children that were left behind. but by the way, that 100 or 200 number s continues to be repeated by the biden administration is false, it's an undercount because it doesn't include the green card holders and so many more that are taxpaying and counted by this administration for other things when it serves their purpose. they are being left behind and lied about. >> kayleigh: and the associated press reporting, that number could be higher than 100 standard americans. so many times the federal government is telling us, and we know the federal government cannot be trusted. they broken so many of their promises to afghanistan. this mother who was strained at it, she talks about the taliban putting a gun to her head and it sounded so much like this interview. i wanted to play at a clip from
9:05 am
another stranded pregnant american in afghanistan. we will play the clip now. >> she said go to this location and you will get picked up. go there and in the middle-of-the-road across the airport. so we went there and we didn't extra 12-13 hours with no food and no water, and i had a gun pointed to my head. our troops were literally at the gate waiting for us to continue walking and they had bought dust. at one time i walked past them and started walking as fast as i can and they started shooting right by my legs and told me to come back or they would shoot me. >> for the state department to release a statement first of all, and i want to quote this because i have a comment regarding their statement and what it actually reads. have a c officials greeted the americans once a across the border and that says it all.
9:06 am
embassy officials and the state department got -- why did they not help them once they were actually in harm's way? because like many other, possibly 500 american stranded in afghanistan and they are weighted to be bailed out by the biden administration, that hasn't happened and a deadline has come and gone and now they are left to private companies. i got this mother and her children through the most dangerous part of the mission end of the state department didn't step in and told him most dangerous part is done, all thanks to private donors for them to take come forward and take responsibility. now we are waiting for other americans who are sitting on the tarmac and airplanes which unfortunately have to turn to private donors possibly as well. >> kayleigh: exactly. those are airplanes and we have satellite imagery that we will pop up there.
9:07 am
rick clay runs a private rescue group called plan b and he tells fox news that the only thing preventing these flights with american citizens from taking off are the state department's. >> tomi: at your right. we discussed this yesterday, you think by now we would get a straight answer from the biden administration as to what exactly is going on. if they are not the one stalling it, then who is? but talk about them taken credit for something they did not do, the lack of information and flat out lies, that makes me wonder what else they are not telling us, we know that stranded americans are getting home but who is getting in? if we are being lied to about this, if we are being lied to about something we can see from satellite images and witnesses and photographs, what are we not being told that we aren't able to see? who is coming into our country, those being led into our country and will we ever get a straight answer on that one? i think the record shows that
9:08 am
every american deserves to be upset, we don't get straight answers, we don't get any information from the state department and i don't know if biden is still under this administration about all of it is inexcusable. it's ridiculous, we need answers and it should not be taking this long. >> this fact that she reached out to the state department multiple times and she's a mother with children, imagine everyone else for those who don't have children. if she doesn't get in, who knows who else is? >> and we have commander in chief promises, he promised he wasn't leaving afghan allies behind, but that tells him to change the perception and all of this is leading to charlie, and interestingly criticism from his own party. i have been deeply frustrated,
9:09 am
for the inexcusable and bureaucratic red tape. he's an expert in stolen valor and now apparently that has infected the state department. but the whole thing is, it's a most federal government joe biden, the perfect story that sums up the entire administration. you have a problem that is created by the federal government. the attempts to fix it or say they attempt to fix it in a completely failed to fix it, they only make it worse. then they can't clean up the mess and somebody else comes along and cleans up their despicable mass and then the federal government bureaucrats in the state department decide to come a long standing along the border where everything is safe and easy and they tried to take credit for all of it.
9:10 am
it's a perfect example of the biden administration and the perfect example of the federal government. and i think, some of you all noted this, but let's not forget. the federal government has overseen at 140,000 evacuations out of afghanistan since the summer. what we do know, and we don't know who these people are. we find out that they've been put all over the country and military bases and we still don't know who they are. we don't have a process for vetting them and it's going to be difficult to vet them because it's a completely collapsed government in afghanistan. those many americans aren't among those 130,000 people. so who are these people and how
9:11 am
to the federal government advantage for the biden administration managed to prioritize all of these people and we don't know who they are. it's a debacle that if they weren't so tragic we would be sitting around laughing hysterically over what bumbling idiots these people are. >> kayleigh: and it all goes back to where we began. other three could not get on an evacuation flight and had to flee by foot across the afghanistan border with the help of not the state department but retired at military. what a tragic mess this actually is. coming up as the crisis unfolds, vice president, harris has been largely m.i.a. during the crisis and is taking the time to go to campaign for governor newsom. that's next.

9:16 am
>> kayleigh: while americans are still being held in afghanistan, vice president, harris is heading to her home state of california tomorrow to campaign for embattled governor gavin newsom who is facing a recall election. critics are slimming or two before choosing the campaign for new summits of helping an effort to get americans home safely. ever since she has taken the role of second in command, for reports of a toxic work culture adding to that is her stunning silence over the afghanistan crisis. you know, charlie, it's amazing to me. biden vacationing over the weekend, you have kamala harris
9:17 am
going to campaign, americans are stranded. besides all that, let's bring in the least popular vice president in the last half-century. i'm sure that will do it. your thoughts? >> charlie: , harris who even democrats don't like it, it's kind of an odd move. you go through that let me things that she's done wrong and she screwed up, and it's a very stressful situation, and it wouldn't be a laughing matter if it weren't so serious. it really is kind of amazing and i think, everything for democrats is a raw political calculation. it is why of course they have decided to go with open borders because they think that if they can get a whole bunch of new voters in the country then the chances of passing the crazy agenda will be a lot easier to
9:18 am
do. and the other thing is, the they don't talk about these other issues. if that's the case, why did joe biden and so many other democrats vote to spend a trillion dollars in 20 years, it's an important question to ask. but to them it's all about raw politics. in the long run it's not going to work because as you pointed out, come irs even among democrats is a stone cold loser at the ballot box. if gavin newsom not racing his opponents 5-1.
9:19 am
and somebody wants them to stay in power. >> kayleigh: no doubt about that. then you have stunning silence on the issue of women in afghanistan. and where is her voice on this? i thought she was humanitarian? >> we see them from time to time, where she can't stay silent and we go back to gavin newsom and the recall effort. this is a level of tone-deaf, and the fact that we got a delta variant, the fact that we got what's going on in our border and what's going on in afghanistan, and it stunning
9:20 am
really. how much they think that they can get away with. but charlie is absolutely right, they believe that the american people are stupid. not paying attention to food shortages, and not paying attention to any of the other dumpster fires going on in the country. but i will say that, gavin newsom hasn't raised a lot of money from teachers unions and special interests and tax but that money will not save him. the only thing that will save gavin newsom is a voter fraud and so as they say, they woke, pay attention to the voter fraud going on in california because it will have big consequences not only for that state but upcoming elections, and that just happens to be where, la shs from.
9:21 am
be three in and what illegal immigrant children? virtually every democrat spoke out against cuomo but, here is, you think she would speak out on some of these very key issues. >> many, that the only reason she had vdp on the ticket is -- if they had no intention on our doing any governing whatsoever. they clearly will diffuse her as a cheerleader and she can go out to california and tear on one of her former colleagues, someone from california, she will end up back there is no time once this administration is out of the white house. but that is a slap in the face and it she was plenty vocal and she loves to talk about the fact that she was the last person in the room when joe biden made this decision to make this catastrophic withdrawal out of them again. she hasn't said one word about the afghan women and children who were left behind. i'd like to hear from a woman in
9:22 am
the white house about that. she hasn't said much about the fact that a female officer was shot in front of her family. and where is our female vice president? going to back up a amanda. isn't that a great message for the liberal women were supposed to support this country. >> kayleigh: i won't fault you if you don't have an answer because i'm putting you on the spot but can you name one thing, here is is has it accomplished as vice president? explain when she made those cupcakes or those things, during that dinner she had, for women. don't forget, i am from california, some of us who come out from california are good eggs. but i think the larger point that i see, as if we needed any more indication that this administration is all about and only about strategy. not the actual cause is that they campaigned on, not the
9:23 am
boxes that they check when they are congratulating themselves, not the actual plate of humans for the safety and security of americans now, it's only strategy. , has shoved in our faces since day one of our campaign and even before that but she is one ally to and when the real need to come satan, when it's time for real action, she's dead silent or totally impotent. the other thing is that americans are seeing through this. this is why the big dog and sons are vp elizabeth warren are being sent to california to cradle the democrat golden child in the sea of deep blue electorate because they see that americans are seen through the blue lies that they keep throwing everywhere. and contrary to her act allegations, 50% of eligible voters think that she has absolutely not qualified to assume the duties of the
9:24 am
presidency. so i predict that this will be her keep. >> kayleigh: i agreed. you haven't thought the border and there are a myriad of other task where we haven't seen anything. just a headache, a quest for justice decades in the making. a trial for the mastermind of 9/11 begins today is the nation begins to mark in 20 years since those attacks. bet you don't treat brady this way. come on, man! you clearly haven't seen the other ads. it's the eat fresh refresh™ at subway®. i am robert strickler. i've been involved in communications in the media you clearly haven't seen the other ads. for 45 years. i've been taking prevagen on a regular basis for at least eight years. for me, the greatest benefit over the years has been that prevagen seems to help me recall things

9:28 am
a few administrators on the ground here yesterday were waiting to assess the damage, she's visited two communities, monica hills and winona which was had by the tornado and was on the ground for over 13 miles, that was on the ground. the secretary's work with the state to make sure folks on medicare and medicaid get the emergency care that they need. if you want to make sure that relief is equitable so that those hardest hit get what they need and we know there is a lot more to do and that's why we are here. for decades scientists have warned of extreme weather and that would be more extreme, climate change was here and we are living through it now. i've been on the telephone or on the road an awful lot between
9:29 am
california, idaho, new orleans -- not new orleans, louisiana, but new orleans and mississippi and here. every part of the country, and we are now living in real time what the country is going to look like and we can't turn back very much but we can prevent it from getting worse. so we are all in this together and we got to make sure that we don't leave any community behind and it's all across the country. the members of congress know from their colleagues in congress that it looks like a tornado, we don't call them that anymore, but it hit the crops in the middle of the country. in iowa and nevada, across the
9:30 am
board. as i said it, we are in this together. one of the things today that i will ask you about as we get into some questions and answers, we ask you how we are going to build back. we build back realizing what the status of the claimant is now and what the trajectory of it is going to be. and you can no longer, we all know, you can't just build it back to whatever it was before. you can't build back and restore what it was before. because another tornado, another 10 inches of rain will produce the same kind of results. so i want to talk about specifics, about the things you think you would need not just to get back to normal but to get back to the place where it would happen again, that damage would
9:31 am
be considered less. and that's what this is all about. this is an opportunity and i think the fact that the country has acknowledged the fact that it's real and it's moving at an incredible pace and we got to do something about it. i will be going here to the world meeting and it is, i think we are at one of those points where we either active or we will be in real, real trouble. i want to thank you, back to you. >> thank you mr. president, and again we can't thank you enough for being here with all of your support. another person who has been here, we had a lot of conversations over the past several weeks, some havoc in new jersey but nothing like ida.
9:32 am
>> thank you to all the elected officials, commissioners and mayors who are here today. >> julie: just for the president remarking after he received a briefing in hillsboro township in new jersey, the president making his very first stop there and that means moving to a local neighboring town and then he will head into the state of new york. will he be heading to queens? queens is one of the five boroughs in new york city, one of the hardest hit areas. he did not touch much on the numbers of people affected by this company did spend quite a bit of time talking about local global warming and how changes are affecting these norms. but asked for the actual people that were affected by this, he said relief is equitable and he talked about how those hardest hit will get what they need. there are so far 27 deaths which are blamed on hurricane ida, 18
9:33 am
in new york and 27 in new jersey. there are still hundreds of people without power and he didn't mention that but he did say of course, relief is equitable. so i would imagine people who have to pay for hotels and other alternate places to stay until they get a chance to rebuild. 852 customers still without power in new jersey and but still a work in progress. i will toss it back over to emily now, we will talk about something else. but watching the president talk about this, every time the white house does remark on the storm, we are hearing a lot about the global warming and not so much about the actual people on the ground which i was kind of hoping to hear from. >> emily: and unfortunately i'm not surprised by that julie. never let a good crisis go to waste seems to be the second mantra of this biden administration. moving forward, on saturday americans will mark 20 years since the foot thunder 11 terror
9:34 am
attacks. but this also marks another important anniversary. it's been 15 years since president george w. bush amounts of the suspected mastermind behind 9/11 and several al qaeda have been sent to guantanamo bay. pretrial hearings for them started this morning and those men are believed to be they made their first joint court appearance today in well over a year. at the moment the hearings are in recess and set to resume tomorrow. 20 years after 9/11, 15 years since these guys have been transferred to gitmo. 40 realms of pretrial proceedings and six judges have been assigned to this case consecutively to the tune of $13 million per prisoner, per year there at gitmo. the question is, will americans
9:35 am
see justice? >> i pray that we eventually well but unfortunately this is another example that underscores just how disastrously the federal government has failed to protect us and to learn lessons from 9/11. a lot of people -- if you could have asked any american on september 12, once the single most important thing to do in the wake of 9/11 and they all told you, seal the border. whether that's building a wall or stopping the flow of illegals are fixing our visa process is done, let's forget. of the 24 visa applications, or rather 13 of the visa applications that the terrorist bombers applied for, 12 were approved by the federal government. and we have done very little to fix any of those problems as is evidenced by the fact that the biden administration just bought brought us 140,000 afghans whose backgrounds we know nothing
9:36 am
about. he was transferred a few years later to gitmo, and i realize the rest of the world doesn't enjoy our constitution but we could have gladly exported to guantanamo bay the right to a speedy and public trial and tried him within 12 months of taking custody of him. we knew enough about him and his involvement with 9/11 at that time and who could have publicly tried him and publicly executed him at least 15 years ago. the fact that we have not done that we have done nothing to fix the border, and again, that includes the visa process. the fact that we have done those things should shake everyone's faith that the federal government is ever able to solve any of these problems and until people start electing people, people like donald trump who are serious about fixing these
9:37 am
problems, this will haunt -- continue to haunt us. >> emily: and every one of those defendants has an addition to human rights attorneys, they have a signed defense attorneys. and all five detainees entered the courtroom jovially, seemingly happy to see one another after it's been 500 days since they left and saw each other physically. it appears as if they are having a grand time. >> julie: it also gives me a question as to when they are actually being held. why are we waiting 15 years to try a a terrorist that should have honestly been killed 15 years ago, like charlie mentioned? and the fact that we are now approaching the marking of 20 years since 9/11 and this is now just 20 years after that day, or we get to see pretrial emotions. i understand the delay because
9:38 am
of covid but pretrial motions 20 years later is truly just a slap in the face, imagine if a terrorist went in and caused this kind of terror and, let's say israel for example? do think that terrorist would be alive sitting all happy in a jail cell on an island in cuba? i don't think so. >> emily: and tomi, 20 years since 9/11. now after the shameless conclusion to a 20 year war, this is the background that this pretrial hearing is now occurring against. >> there is a lot going on in afghanistan and also here at home. i think to underscore what charlie has been talking about with our border, i'm nervous about the anniversary of september 11, not just because -- i'm also worried about radicalization within the united states and this is what
9:39 am
happens when terror groups gain prominence again. donald trump was able to wipe out isis and we know it's reforming again as terrorist groups that do but the world knew that they had to respect the united states of america. they are either homegrown radicalized or if you seek to do harm from this country from abroad, that's no longer the case. i worry that this in a will be a welcome will come out to the world, and this week excuse for a president, we need to be more vigilant than other and pay attention to our surroundings. >> kayleigh: tomi is exactly right. these people have come over and some of them are our afghan allies. if you're a translator that helps the united states, you should be here. but the fact that we don't know who these people are and the fact that two people had to be deported back to kosovo, some of the young girls arriving our
9:40 am
child brides and have reported that, some of these people don't have paper, it's a troubling predicament that we are in right now in juxtaposition with the anniversary of 9/11. what a travesty, what a mess president joe biden has made. >> emily: i hope we can look forward to some semblance of justice for all those who lost their lives and the 9/11 attacks 20 years ago. up next, a bogus story on covid hospitalization is now gaining traction in the mainstream media. an backlash after news sources have not taken down the story. ♪ ♪ uh, i-i'm actually just going to get an iced coffee. well, she may have a destination this one time, but usually -- no, i-i usually have a destination. yeah, but most of the time, her destination is freedom. nope, just the coffee shop. announcer: no matter why you ride, progressive has you covered

out of this is -- of the medicines that have not been politicized. and it doing this sort of thing does so much damage to people's faith in just what they think they know, and what they are learning when they try to research these things. but of course, you compare it to the four years of lies and propaganda and nonsense that the same media petaled against president trump. it's hard to say which is worse but they are both horrifying. >> kayleigh: and our friend brian stelter thinks he found the answer why it was reported that 70% of calls to the poison center work for this drug guy from acton. good old brian stelter says it's not media bias, is hollowed out newsrooms. as of the problem, julie?

>> julie: i think people just aren't doing reporting anymore. i think everyone reports what they see. whatever happened to cold calls and real journalism? when fox goes on the air with an actual reported story and they investigated and there is a huge outcry, then we go ahead and retreat stories that are being covered by the rolling stone without doing any old-fashioned journalism like, i don't know, seeking out your own sources or doing something like that. first of all, i want to know where the twitter bands are. this book and instagram and twitter can down so hard during the trump administration for falsehoods being out there on social media regarding the covered vaccine and covid virus and those people were taken off, and bandit, some suspended permanently. why hasn't rachel maddow then banned from spreading this propaganda or this conspiracy theory that's up there and nobody is taking it down or censoring her? >> kayleigh: i think i know

the answer, drew holden summed this up perfectly. it should go without saying. inventing that out of thin air, it would have taken a single phone call to shoot down the story. why did this happen? he goes on to say, you won't hear any outrage because this is the acceptable right of a political lie and they will keep doing this because they care more about scoring cheap junk on their opponent than getting the truth. is not it, tommy? this is the kind of political lie that's acceptable. >> julie: may equate that with republicans and those that have vaccine hesitancy, they want to make it political. they have done it and in every turn they have used covid to try to squash ideas. but as julie mentioned i think
9:50 am
that's very interesting. i tweeted before that vaccination is a political choice, and i have had that flagged. and that is perfectly acceptable. i think the american people are starting to catch on to this, and come 22 and 24 people are starting to turn away. >> it's a poly hypocrisy from twitter that surprises. and on that note, i will hand it to you. >> emily: twitter is testing out a new feature called safety mode designed to prevent users from being overwhelmed by a harmful or unwanted tweets. starting tomorrow the company will test out the tool with a small number of users including people from marginalized communities and female

journalists. twitter says "our goal is to better protect individual but on the receiving end of treats by reducing the probability of full remarks. they are trying to make it a be nice, play nice platform. before i wonder if anyone has taken a look at my twitter feed, i don't know if safety mode would help me much. how about protecting conservatives? i think the rest of you could attest to this as well, the nastiness that i received it, that i've reported before, but hasn't even been taken down, the fact that they want to bring on the safety mode is, i'm sorry, just laughable. >> as your friends it makes my blood boil, the thought of you being left out there totally for vulnerable while the perceived protection that these guys are extending to people that they choose to want to protect.
9:52 am
that brings me to my question which is, are these rules confusing when they are allowing despots and terrorists to freely tweet, let alone those that are threatening our friends and colleagues? >> kayleigh: absolutely. the leader can tweet, i don't trust twitter. i will use this, rooted out of existence and i think safety mode is creating a safe space for democrats and i think they will end up using this to left conservative tweets or high conservative tweets. don't trust safety mode either. >> julie: i think our executive producer would love to apply a safety mode it to my twitter account. but i will say this. it's all going to depend on who you are and where you work as to gets protected. so maybe my executive producer can go through my feed and stop all the weird tweets about wanting pictures of my feet.

i mean i know i have high arches but let's talk about something more pressing. [laughter] >> emily: i would have killed for those high arches growing up as a dancer. a >> julie: apparently my feet have a wikipedia page. so i'd like to safety pause on that. somebody did threaten to behead me much. and it's absolutely horrifying. charlie? >> charlie: there are big concerns about people getting their feelings hurt on twitter while the platform is being used and of course the stories are starting to roll in now. he literally tracked down and stoned a woman for not cooking
9:54 am
for them. so i don't know. i'm spitballing here, twitter sort of has their priorities screwed up and hopefully people will vote with their feet and find a different platform. arches, no arches. i don't even know what those are. [laughs] >> emily: it when you talk about the continued an aptitude of the federal government, i remember getting a death threat over my voice mail so i could deploy opd and sps and the like to that guy's house. but upon witnessing a death threat from one employee to another on the floor, that person could only be reprimanded and disciplined in a certain way because they were bound by the union rules and structure, not the federal bureaucracy structure in place at the moment. those are who are in this protected environment can be
