underway? tweet your video questions to @ bret baier #sr covid questions. tomorrow on "special report," the taliban says it has full control of afghanistan. but, others say a civil rule is likely. thanks for watching "special report," i'm mike emanuel in washington. "fox news primetime" hosted by rachel campos-duffy starts right now. rachel, have a great show. >> rachel: thank you, mike. good evening, and welcome to "fox news primetime." ♪ ♪ >> rachel: i'm rachel campos-duffy. and tonight we will start with a bombshell report with more lies from the biden administration tonight as we're learning that the white house blocked private evacuation flights out of afghanistan. emails obtained by fox news showed the state department, quote: refused to grant official approval for private evacuation flights from afghanistan to land in third countries. furthermore, the state department explicitly stated that charter flights, even those containing american citizens would not be allowed to land at

defense department air bases. the state department defended the decision, raising concerns of possible terrorists being on board while having no one on the ground to verify the flight manifest. but these actions go against biden's promise that he wouldn't leave any americans behind. >> 90% of americans in afghanistan who wanted to leave were able to leave. and for those remaining americans, there is no deadline. we remain committed to get them out if they want to come out. >> rachel: well, that was clearly a lie. as the administration is now actively working to stop american citizens from escaping the failed nation. and we don't even know how many americans are left stranded in afghanistan. >> we have been able to identify a relatively small number of americans who we believe are seeking to depart from the airport with their families. we have been assured, again, that all-american citizens and

afghan citizens with valid travel documents will be allowed to leave. >> rachel: so what constitutes a relatively small number? and who is in charge of deciding what is a valid travel document? >> we have also engaged with the taliban on this topic, including in recent hours. they said that they will let people with travel documents freely depart but they have said that those without valid documents at this point can't leave. >> rachel: that's right, the taliban. once again, we're at the mercy of a terror group to ensure that americans can return home safely. so how does antony blinken still have a job after this colossal failure? where is the accountability? remember, blinken was vacationing in the hamptons of all places when afghanistan collapsed. from there, he called president ashraf ghani and told him to step aside and that's when all hell broke loose. the state department's repeated

failures has caused others to spring into action, including oklahoma representative and former cage fighter mark wayne mullin. he was again to sit by as americans were left to be slaughtered in afghanistan. after a friend pleaded for help in evacuating four americans, congressman mullin rushed to do everything he could to help he teamed one a group of veterans, contractors and nonprofit sentinel foundation for the rescue effort. and, yet, the state department continually stood in their way as they tried lee through the kabul airport. and as mullin's team tried to leave through tack jesus christ stan. despite the state department's obstruction their mission was a success. and they were able to get the four americans out over land. and what was the state department's response? to steal credit for the heroic efforts of others. joining me now oklahoma congressman markwayne mullin.

congressman. >> hi, rachel. >> rachel: hello. this is an amazing story. it's just outrageous. how angry, how mad are you that after everything that you and that organization that nonprofit went through you have the state department trying to take credit for it? >> i would like to say i was surprised but i wasn't. along the way we had multiple ambassadors that we spoke to that had told us when we were trying to arrange what we call rat lines because these same people we tried to get out through awhy a and we couldn't get the state document open the gate. we tried on the 28th, 29th, and 30th. multiple times. when they said anybody could lead leave could leave that's not true. had you to go through three taliban checkpoints and even one would choose between 500 and $1,000 a person to cross through those checkpoints. that's why the other countries was going out and getting those citizens and bringing them back but not the united states. at the orders from either secretary blinken or president biden. and so when they -- when we

started trying to find other places to take then out of through other countries and set up rat lines which we have been successful doing, we have right now 23 other u.s. citizens, amsits in safe houses different locations outside of kabul waiting to get out, too. when we started trying to find and work with amsitse around there they told us rat mullin we have been instructed not to assist you in any way. this is embassies telling me that washington, d.c. told them not to assist us in any way. it's a boldfaced lie when they are out there saying this was a successful evacuation. this was the successful mission when rachel, the truth is, i wouldn't be there if it was successful. other organizations wouldn't be there. the sentinel foundation wouldn't be there if it was successful. when we worked for literally 4, almost around the clock hours trying to negotiate with the

taliban to release meriam to be able to come across the bridge, and then blinken puts out a statement saying that the taliban was helpful and released to them. i will tell you at 3:00 yesterday morning, central standard time 3:00 yesterday morning, they had threatened to kill her because i was on the phone with her and they had threatened to kill her if she approached the check point again. >> rachel: right. >> that doesn't sound like they are working with us. blinken he goes out there and wants to take credit for it. it infuriates me because they continue to lie to the american people. >> rachel: i'm sure you have had time to think about this entire ordeal. you have to wonder and i'm sure you have. tell me what you think the answer is why would the state department stand in the way of you helping when they didn't do it? >> you know, my personal opinion is, they are trying to squash this story. they want this bad news to go away as soon as possible. and i truly believe that their way to do that is just not allow this to be a story anymore. and why else would they not allow american citizens, you

know, a while ago you talked about the airplanes setting in the shareef and the state department not giving them clearance to land. we have been working on several of those planes. in fact, meriam was on one of those planes before we pulled her off. what we had suggested to the state department. i made the suggestion. i called them and said why don't we let one plane leave that only has amsits and sivs special immigration visas that are granted to come to the u.s.? why don't we just fill up one plane and allow them to come in? they said no, we can't. because we won't know who is on the map fest sheet. i said i will give you the pats ports and all the documentations of the sivs to show who is on there. they still wouldn't grant us opportunity to leave. >> rachel: right. on top of all of this, congressman, the worst part and maybe it's not the worst part but it's one of the parts that the state department and the administration is actually trying to smear you. they are accusing you of show boating and you probably bunt have had to do this if they had done their jobs sent in special forces.

send in the navy seals or better yet, gotten our americans out before they closed and withdrew us from this operation or from this country. >> yeah. how about use the plan be that president trump had where we were going to close the kabul airport a second to last and keep balgram airport until last that way we could still have air support and have military personnel present to make sure this didn't happen? how about just use that plan and instead of blaming it on everybody. for me, i never wanted this thing to go public. we never went in there to try to go public. we wanted to be as quiet as possible. the sentinel foundation is nonpolitical. they don't want publicity like this. and so when we started teaming up with them, we made a decision not to go public with any of it. but the state department leaked a conversation that was completely misinterpreted that i had with a another ambassador when i asked them who told you couldn't work with me? they said we can't. it came out of d.c.

i said sir, either you tell me who told you or you will hear from me in a different capacity. i will find out eventually who told you not to work with us to get american citizens out. and he apologized profusely. it wasn't his fault. he was following orders from the state department in washington, d.c. >> rachel: congressman. we really appreciate it. it took a mma fighter and congressman to help this operation get through we are grateful. >> rachel, i was -- yeah, i want to make it clear i was a low man on this totem pole. i work withed with great operator on sentinel foundation. these are tier 1 individuals and special forces guys that i was the least of them all. i was just blessed to be able to work with them. >> rachel: we are blessed to you have and that team. thank you so much, congressman. >> thank you, rachel. >> rachel: all right. as the failures of the biden administration pile up, people are left to ask with is the accountability? so far the only person to lose their job for afghanistan is a colonel asking the same

question. >> people are upset because their senior leaders let them down and knob of them are raising their hands and accepting accountability or saying we messed this up. did any of you throw your rank on the table and say hey, it's a bad idea to evacuate bagram airfield the strategic air base before we evacuate anyone? did anyone do that? when you didn't think to do that, does anyone raise their hand and say we completely messed this up? >> rachel: how did tony blinken and lloyd austin still have their jobs? let's ask k.t. mcfarland former national security adviser and author of revolution. are let's ask the question how do they still have their jobs? why has no one in the leadership of the dod and also in the administration, no one, not one head has rolled. >> it's each worse than that, not only are they so dishonorable that they are not resigning in shame, what's happened for years is american diplomats, political leaders and particularly those three star

generals they trotted off to capitol hill and they said oh, you know, we just need a few billion more dollars. we just need a couple more thousand troops. how about another year or two or we will win this war. they knew it was losing all the way along. what did they do when they got to high rank? they retired? they took off their uniform and they went to work for defense contractors it is a corrupt system. and it's kept us in a losing war. and now when the biden administration has been almost criminally incompetent they think they are going to get away with it. there is no media left in afghanistan. they say the press will move on. now we will have another story about a hurricane or maybe the environmentor maybe we will talk about unemployment. they think they will get away with it the problem is the next time this happens when china tests the united states or russia tests the united states, they won't get away with it. >> rachel: i agree with you,

katie. i think they think they can get away with it they think this is another news cycle. the problem is we are up on the 20th anniversary of 9/11 this weekend. we will be commemorating that on weekend weekend as well. people's attention is on this we have 13 bleerns, soldiers who died honoring them. protect places for them. the american people are not moving on from this i just don't know, katie. this time maybe they won't get away with it in terms of the media. >> the media is going to 'let them get away with there when you have people like the congressman how just spoke to and really moving interview. >> rachel: right. >> what's happened is america has stepped up. the government is in the way. the government isn't saving americans. the government left americans behind. it's individual americans saying okay my government isn't going to do it i'm going to help the people i know need help. god bless them. you know it, really gives you faith, i think, in the american people.

not the american government but the american people. >> rachel: absolutely. if the american people choose not to follow a page from the media and turn the page on this and they stick to it and say we want accountability, it may just happen but you are right. it is brave americans who stepped up in despite of the government that are giving us help that hope is not lost. k.t., always great to talk to you. >> thank you. >> rachel: okay. coming up, new documents show dr. fauci was lying to congress when he said this: >> you are implying that what we did was responsible for the deaths of individuals, i totally resent that. >> and it could have been. >> if anybody is lying here, senator, it is you. >> rachel: steve hilton is next. ♪ ♪ auto

corona research. so that means that rand paul was right and dr. fauci has been lying to the world. richard ebright, a molecular biologist at rutgers university tweeting, quote: the documents make it clear that assertions by the nih director francis collins and the n id director anthony fauci that the nih did not support gain of function research reor pathogen enhancement at the wuhan institute of viral are untruthful. joining me now to react host of the next revolution stihl steve hilton. steve, it's always a pleasure to have you on. you have been following this story probably more closely than anybody else. i know you are not surprised by this. but we have been talking about accountability all evening here on prime. and i am just wondering how does he still have a job? and do you think he will get hauled before congress to be held accountable for this? >> well, you are exactly right,

rachel. i mean, how is it possible that we have someone there who is now clearly revealed to have lied to congress, the substance of what is in these documents, as you just noted, isn't particularly different from what we first reported on the next revolution on a sunday back in january in subsequent reporter. the substance isn't particularly new. but detail is new. he has lied to congress. he has been lied every time he is asked about it how is it possible that this guy who lies and lies and lies again is still in his job? and a further point, when he says with that kind of indignation are you saying that i was responsible for the deaths of all these people? yes. we are saying that. we are saying the most likely origin of the pandemic is this research that fauci and collins funded. and, remember, they went around

the rules to fund it. rules that were put in plates by place byfirst the obama adminisn and then the trump administration. they went around those rules to fund this reckless, dangerous research. now, you ask about accountability. >> we had the biden regime just the other week, they published this report from the intelligence agencies which basically gave us no kind of answer at all. they said look, we already know where it came from. we know that the chinese covered up their part in the release of it that's fair enough. we don't know any more there but, there is one piece of hope that we can cling on to. remember the hhs inspector general announced in june that they were launching an investigation into exactly this grant making process, international institutes of health and the institute run by fauci nanid. that is ongoing. that is supposed to be published some time next year. we have to hope at least the inspector general will at least

reveal the truth of this, which is first that fauci lied about the gain of function research that he funded and secondly and this is where i think we might finally get some accountability, he broke the rules that were in place under two administrations to push forward this dangerous research. >> rachel: steve, he really used his position and the credibility that he had from his work, you know, in aids research and as well as the media that loved him, he used all that to throw the entire world off the scent of the chinese and lab and funding. here is a letter that was written by steve da zac. show how they were doing gain of function research, makes even more sense when you remember this email. sent to fauci at the beginning of the pandemic praising him for throwing the media off the scent of the lab. thank you on behalf of our staff and collaborators for publicly

standing up and stating that the scientific evidence supports a natural origin for covid-19 there he is working with the money laundering through do that gain of function research and that guy is thanking him for that. >> exactly and the cover-up. >> rachel: yes. >> these two were zealots in favor of this kind of research. that's what we have to remember. people ask how could dr. fauci his whole life dedicated to fighting disease, how can you possibly say that he would do something as dangerous as this? because he was a fanatic in favor of this research. remember, that 10 years ago, 2011 he wrote with francis collins an opinion piece in the "the washington post" where he said, quote: that creating a dangerous virus in the la bore tore is a risk worth taking. because it would help us understand how to fight these pandemics. he said it was a risk worth taking. does he still think that today? >> rachel: it's ghoulish. you have been at the forefront

of this as i said. thank you for staying on it thank you for coming forward when it was, you know, before any of this came out. we really appreciate it and i know you are going to continue to stay on it thank you, steve. >> absolutely, thank you, rachel. >> rachel: the left has been trying to crack down on unvaccinated. they have been saying it for months. >> what we need to do at this point is make vaccination the easy choice. it needs to be hard for people to remain unvaccinated. right now it's kind of the opposite. it's fine. i mean, it's easy if you are unvaccinated can you do anything you want to do anyway. >> rachel: so creepy. by the way that's also the former leader of planned parenthood. a south florida doctor taking it to heart saying she plans on denying in person visits to unvaccinated patients beginning next week. so, if you are feeling ill, a zoom meeting will have to do. dr. linda told local reporters that her decision to turn away unvaccinated patients wasn't political. it was based purely on the

science. sound familiar? joining me now national syndicated radio host and author dana loesch. welcome, dana. >> good to see you, rachel. thanks for having me. >> rachel: of course. thanks for joining me. we are starting to see this sort of appar tides vaccination system where, you know, if you are vaccinated you get certain privileges. if you are unvaccinated because, you know, you don't want to take the vaccine or you have natural immunities because you already had covid, you are going to be denied certain privileges. including seeing your doctor? >> yeah. you bring up a really great point, too. about people who have already contracted coronavirus and they have this natural immunity. and i have just noticed in a lot of these like, for instance, this doctor that you are talking about, she doesn't make any mention about any of the patients that she has in her practice as to whether or not any of them already had it and whether or not natural immunity suffices and meets that mandate. nor i have really heard this anywhere else. i really winner -- that's not science.

that's not science. coercion and bullying is not science if we are going to have a discussion about following the science. we should really start using accurate terms like whether inoculation and vaccination and therapeutics. a lot of people have a question about this. a lot of it came from the medical community and people like anthony fauci who wanted to politic sides things and answer questions about policy when they should have been actually just talking about the virus and how to be preventative or how to deal with the symptoms. rachel, ultimately, having this apartheid why sigh apartheid system where instead of answering questions that still absolutely do linger because i have issues within my family. i have people in my family who cannot get vaccinated because they have the health issue. they are cancer survivors, and they can't go get the vaccine. i have other individuals that fit into a certain demographic in my family that are looking at organ tissue inflammation. i have a number of the doctors that we see regularly who weren't able to answer those questions. of course, they say you need to

work with what information you have and make the decision that's best for you and your family. so, rachel, with this doctor i really wish we could get back to medicine and science and not with bullying and coercion. imagine if people put their efforts to that. >> rachel: imagine. we would have a different america than we have right now. we need to get back to that. dana, you are always somebody standing up for the truth. appreciate you joining me on this show. >> thank you, rachel. >> rachel: bi, dana. all right, coming up, joe biden is doing everything he can to undo the new texas abortion law. but there is a governor standing up for the lives of the unborn and her name is kristi noem. and she joins me next. ♪ ♪ your heart is at the heart of everything you do. and if you have heart failure, there's entresto. entresto helps improve your heart's ability to pump blood to the body. don't take entresto if pregnant; it can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. don't take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren, or if you've had angioedema with an ace or arb.

when prominent south carolina lawyer alex mur duong dock called 911 and claimed to have been shot in the head while changing a tire on a back road. murdock was rushed to a savanna hospital but the wound turned out to be superficial. so far there are no suspects. but, but, after being shot alex murdock yesterday issue issued a private segment he was quitting the law firm his great grandfather started 100 years ago and entering rehab though he did not say why. it turns out he didn't quit the law firm. he was forced out. for allegedly stealing money and all of this comes just three months after alex murdock found the bodies of his wife and son at the family hunting lodge, both had been shot to death. here's murdock's 911 call at the time. watch. >> i have been up to it now. it's bad. >> okay. and are they breathing? >> no ma'am. >> okay. and you said it's your wife and your son? >> my wife and my son.

>> are they in a vehicle? >> no ma'am. they are on the ground out at my kennel. >> trace: so far no arrests in the killing of robert and paul murdock. when 22-year-old paul murdaugh was shot to death he was standing trial for driving and crashing a boat while he was drunk that crash killed 19-year-old woman. and back in 2015 a murdaugh family member was also investigated and cleared in the death of a 19-year-old man who was found with hits skull crushed. so for now it's unclear if these killings and attempted killings might be revenge or if the strange events of this weekend might somehow make alex murdaugh a person of interest. rachel? >> rachel: thank you, trace: joe biden is only the second u.s. president catholic u.s. president but his presidency has already sparked a deep divide among the white house and the catholic church. biden's pro-choice stance on abortion has become a major concern among the catholic

community triggering major catholic figures to come out against the administration's agenda. san francisco archbishop sauber tore is one of those critics saying this in a recent op-ed,e, quote abortion is therefore the most pressing human rights challenge of our times. can we pastors speak softly when the blood of 60 million innocent american children cries out for justice? you cannot be a good catholic and support expanding a government approved right to kill innocent human beings. the answer to christ's pregnancy is not violence but love for both mother and child joining me now are charlie hurt and bill mcgurn, both are fox news contributors. welcome to you both. bill, i'm going to start with you. it is interesting that, you know, in light of this heart het bill in texas, the loudest

voices have been two of the most prominent catholics, in fact, the most powerful catholics in the united states of america, nancy pelosi and joe biden. so, as a catholic, bill, do you think that it's time for the church to have more people like archbishop of san francisco kind of speak out and clear up the moral confusion here? >> yeah. well, let's start from the beginning. joe biden ran on a promise to follow the science, but he sure doesn't follow the science when he looks at the unborn. you know, biology tells us this is an innocent human life in the womb. that -- the catholic church doesn't tell us that that comes from biology. and joe biden, by supporting abortion, by supporting the taking of innocent human life, he is just subjectively put himself outside the church teaching. we are not here to judge joe biden's soul or anything like that. but he represents himself as a

good faith catholic when his support for abortion, which has grown more extreme over the years. he used to be, for example, against federal funding and now he has changed that. it just puts him in a very difficult place. and, you know, he largely gets away with it because the media is not very pro-life and not likely to press him on his contradictions. also, he can go to mass. we all do this. no one -- we are all catholic. >> rachel: of course. >> in a sense we are all bad catholics because we are all sinners, the public advocacy what the church calls intrinsic evil is really in a different camp. you can't overcome that by carrying rosery beads and going to church and so forth. he is just objectively at odds with the church's teaching. >> rachel: he is on the wrong side of science here. we know so much about fetal development. and those 4 d ultrasounds. i had an ultrasound 22 years ago and i had just had one two years

ago. the change is remarkable. mothers today are meeting their babies before they are even born. siblings are meeting their siblings before they are even born. they look like little babies. images are remarkable. it's really hard and perhaps this is why we are seeing heartbeat bills coming forward because i think americans are becoming more not less pro-life because of the science. now, charlie, i know you are not catholic but your wife is catholic. you have lot of catholics in your family. you are what the woke would say catholic adjacent, maybe? i'm going to ask you about the politics surrounding this how fair is it that joe biden, you know, sort of as bill mentioned, you know, has these commercials, he are holding rosary beads at the same time at vice president he went up against the little sisters of the poor. here he is using his toj to go after pro-lifers. is it fair for him to have it both ways politically? >> well, i think in a lot of ways that's kind of the most

appalling part of all of this, isn't it? and we have seen it with joe biden. we have seen it with nancy pelosi as well. not only do they betray their beliefs or betray the beliefs of their church, the church that they claim to want to support, by, you know, by being such enthusiastic supporters of abortion. but they also trot out their catholic religion whenever it serves their purposes politically. and it often comes up, for example, when they try to defend their open border policies, and they try to say that, you know, it's unchristian, somehow, to have borders. well, of course, the big difference there is, you know, borders are truly the -- in the realm of caesar, not the realm of god. a nation's borders are up to caesar to sort of enforce whereas the issue of life is very much up to god. and that's an issue of god, obviously we have come together

as the society and, you know, to determine that life is very valuable and we want to protect it, which i think is one of the most -- the reasons that this texas heartbeat bill is so fascinating is because it does attach to something that is scientific, something that is biological, which is the heart beat. >> rachel: that's right. there is a heart beat. thank you, charlie. and bill. tonight go anywhere, because johnny joey jones is here. and he's going on the clock next. ♪ ♪ oh! are you using liberty mutual's coverage customizer tool? so you only pay for what you need. sorry? limu, you're an animal! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ is struggling to manage your type 2 diabetes knocking you out of your zone? lowering your a1c with once-weekly ozempic® can help you get back in it. oh, oh, oh, ozempic®!
