[laughter] ♪ ♪ >> carley: a fox news alert, dhs abruptly holding president biden's disinformation government just three weeks after its launch. the second the mic spearheaded in and blaming this information for the israeli launch. you are watching "fox & friends first" on this thursday morning, i am carley shimkus. >> todd: i'm todd piro. and to suppress a free speech with history that included left-wing narratives and later found out to inaccurate. ashley strohmier and the studio

with the crazy details, ashley. >> dhs reportedly decided to cancel the border and written up in a letter to resign. although given the option to stay, nina said with the board's future uncertain, she will be leaving dhs and the board has been put on hold. backlash from republicans and democrats, and what it would mean for free speech. questions have also been raised over her past social media and particularly her tiktok videos. nina jankowicz has been subjected to unjustified and vital personal attacks and physical threats and congressional hearings and media interviews. the secretary has repeatedly defended her eminently qualified and underscore the departments information work and will continue to do so. speak with the board has never

convened. the board has intentionally mischaracterize. >> but this port is shut down because of disinformation, is that it is what is happening here? >> mischaracterizations with outside forces. >> nina jankowicz speaking out last night, list them listen. >> all the sensationalist marist about what the board what people thought the board was going to do was completely wrong. it was a coordinating mechanism. it was meant to come if you know, the very large agency with the department of homeland security, people were talking to each other. >> many republican leaders are calling the holt of the program a win for free speech but others like senator josh hawley don't just pause the board but ended forever. speak to ashley thank you ashley moody led a nationwide tour to ban the board and she will join us later to weigh in on the breaking news. >> todd: looking forward to that but first let's bring in former dhs deputy assistant

secretary and ice director and former federal prosecutor, jonathan, after all this backlash, this is the white house only option, was in it, jonathan? >> it really seems to be the only thing they could have done because at some point the dhs secretary got tired of having to embarrass himself every time he was going out to defend this. everything about it, the irony which i think you pointed out quite well and the opening is they are claiming it is disinformation coming out about the disinformation board. so this board had merits to stand up the board and fight back against the so-called disinformation. but they knew it was silly to begin with. they had a person that was completely nonserious put in charge of this and who had shown a commitment to censorship. but i don't think people should declare this as a way for free speech or other than just a win shutting down this board. if you see president biden

speech the other day, the shameful performance in buffalo, he shows their commitment to shutting down speech, censorship, the same old tricks of calling anyone that disagrees with them racist, trans-phobic, xenophobic, phobic phobic, whatever it is. disinformation sort of the catchall for anything that doesn't fit under that umbrella. they are committed to censorship through social media, through using the government to intimidate people for speaking up for what they believe in him. >> carley: sean hannity talked about the disinformation board last night. take a listen to what he had to say. >> as it turns out former disinformation czar nina jankowicz was one of the biggest perpetrators and purveyors of disinformation in the entire country. she prays russian this information off dossier christopher steele and she referred to the hunter biden laptop scandal as a debunked campaign product and like many

other prominent democrats, nina jankowicz is a conspiracy theorist who wants all americans to believe her twisted opinions analyze the facts. speak to you know what, jonathan i was thinking a nail in the coffin for this board, could have been jeff bezos 'tweet, the disinformation board needs to review what the biden administration. the biden administration realizes if they do something inaccurate or something wrong, the critics will say you have to get the disinformation board on it. it just became a political liability for them. >> i think you are right. i think jeff bezos point is a terrific point because if you have lost jeff bezos and the democrats, you are done. because he is fully on board with the leftist agenda and when he says there's something wrong here, they will not stand up and listen. again, they are committed to censorship. they are wedded to shutting down

political opponents but this certainly was a mistake on so many levels here the rollout in the defense, like i said before, downright embarrassing for everyone involved. >> todd: in the meantime dhs warning of a new summer of rage that may turn violent as law enforcement agencies investigate social media threats. this isn't a rumor. this is an actual memo that reads as follows "summits to make some of these threats burning down or supreme court and murdering justices and their clerks, members of congress, and lawful demonstrators." jonathan how worried are you these threats could possibly be carried out? >> i think we should all be worried about this and what is really shocking how the white house is responding to things like the protests at justices home. they basically condone this behavior. frankly, encourage this behavior and it is concerning also that the white house, you know, i

think they are looking back to the summer of 2020, which politically all the rights and things like that were politically beneficial to them at the time. they will encourage protests and not that they will encourage violence but they will and we are paying the price from the 2020 riots, the rise in crimes and everything else. but going back to disinformation and it is ironic because the democratic party aunt white house put out disinformation about what roe v. wade actually said and actually what overturning roe v. wade would actually mean and it does not mean abortion is illegal in the country as most of the viewers know. but most of the american public may not know this. it means the states get to decide what laws that are appropriate which is democracy at its best. the people get to decide policies that affect other people. but, it really is disturbing

against that the white house encourages and has encourage this type of behavior instead of taking a mature approach to it. i think they are doubling down on like i said, censorship and social unrest. if they are politically astute, wanting stuff over the white house would say maybe we should take a good-faith approach to solving these problems like inflation, crime, immigration rather than playing games or shutting down political opponents rather than trying to create racial division. and they would probably be a lot more effective politically. it is surprising they keep doubling down on these things. the american people don't want social unrest. they don't want racial unrest. they want to solve the problems that affect them. they want a better economy and safer streets. speak to the biden administration actually needs to get ahead of this, because the department of homeland security there is -- it can be beneficial for the president to make a

speech and say this decision isg to come down in june 1 side will b. violence is never the answer. that could be one of the solutions to mitigate some of the violence that could happen here jonathan, we have to leave it there. thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> todd: no words for this next story. did you see this? and abortion rights nonprofit director the shocking claims while testifying before the house judiciary committee yesterday. watch. >> what do you say a woman is? >> i believe that everyone can identify for themselves. >> do you believe that man can become pregnant and have abortions? >> yes. >> todd: wow! that hearing to address concerns against overturning roe v. wade appeared that witness was called by democrats. let's get to this, the campaign will your michael sussmann, john

durham revealing a text message that puts assessments illegible i and writing. >> carley: brooke singman joins us live, good morning. >> the text message coming from the witness in this case former fbi council james baker. his meeting with michael sussmann 2,016th is what sparked allegations of a connection between the trump organization and russia. the message reads "jim, it is michael sussmann. i have something time sensitive that i need to discuss. do you have availability for a short meeting tomorrow? i'm coming on my own, not on behalf of a client or company. i want to help the bureau." they agreed to a meeting where assessment with white papers linking the trump organization to russia and after an investigation, they found the data to be bogus. sussmann claims he came forward not on behalf of a client but as a citizen worried about national security but durham and his team

seem to have record showing sussmann build the clinton campaign for that meeting. another stunning former clinton campaign mark elias. telling the jurors he personally hired fusion gps to take operation research on thin candidate donald trump. you remember fuson gbs with the anti-trump dossier offered by intelligent agent christopher steele and paid for the clinton campaign and dnc through elias and sussmann's law firm. and today james baker is set to get back on the stand. sussmann intends to request a mistrial before that happens, but the judge is "not going to rent a request and told the defense to be prepared for more witnesses, carley, todd. ">> carley: the important revelation from yesterday's testimony. >> one of the things that came out today as plain as day my

testimony in washington, d.c., there. you have, we now know journalists who are meeting directly with the democrats, taking this horrible story and willing to go and put it out there just to destroy republicans and destroyed president trump with the allegations. >> the allegations against this particular attorney, i believe for the tip of the iceberg. it is troubling, how can all of this be going on and somehow they missed the memo that they were working for the clinton campaign is just beyond belief. >> carley: from john durham's investigation into the origins of the trump pressure probe. in president biden to address the baby formula shortage after weeks of outcry from parents across the country. >> todd: lucas tomlinson live from washington. >> good morning, guys, president biden said u.s. aircraft will fly baby formula overseas back to the united states to help families. >> i know parents all across the

country are worried about finding infant formula to feed their babies. as a parent and as a grandparent grandparent, i know how stressful that is. what they call the defense production act to ensure that manufacturers have the necessary ingredients to make safe, healthy infant formula here at home. this is one of my top priorities. >> in our final news conference press secretary jen psaki said the defense production act was on the table with the following caveat. >> the production of the baby formula is so special and so specific that you can't use the difference production act with a company that produces something else to produce baby formula. it doesn't work that way exactly. >> the baby formula shortage is the latest crisis for the white house with inflation a four year high and record-setting gas prices. a letter from 22 house republicans in state legislature, the lawmakers urging the attorney general to release the baby formula held on

the southern border for migrants from mexico. "we asked the state leaders to do everything in your power to free up the federal stockpile of baby formula on the southern border so americans can find the products they need to be their children" appear the defense production act used during the height of the pandemic dates to 1950 the start of the korean war and gives the president to control domestic industry, carley and todd to. >> todd: it it's about time lucas tomlinson, peter pitt said parent should be warned much sooner of the shortage and joins us in about 15, 10 minutes. jpmorgan predicting the national average price of a gallon will surpass $6 by the hand of the summer but wait, there's more. the white house continues to say it is not their fault, it is vladimir putin's melissa end. >> the president has said president putin's is driving the price at the pump and the president is focused on doing everything in his power to

address the putin price hike. >> todd: the finger-pointing is not solving the problem. the post-millennial gas stations and three washington state communities are out of fuel entirely. some of the stations reportedly taking the moment to read programmed the pump screens to make room for double digit numbers. this all in anticipation of gas prices reaching a whopping $10 or more per gallon. that is unconscionable. speak to the pennsylvania primary g.o.p. race possibly heading for a recount, 98% of the vote is in and trump and doris dr. oz still leading right now by a razor-thin margin. david mccormick not far behind but pennsylvania does require mandatory recount if the merchant is within .5 of a percentage point. but meanwhile, progressives are sparing no expense this season and showing a whopping $53 million has already been spent. that is more outside spending

than the democratic house primary than all of their 2020 primaries combined. and georgia early voting numbers are shattering records, despite election reform. the election integrity act of 2021 require 17 days of early voting and strengthen voter i.d. verification. president biden was to compare the republican legislation to jim crow era policies but defended the law despite criticism and makes it more accessible. a new fox poll the leading challenger david perdue by 32% in the georgia republican -- >> todd: elon musk declaring he's not going to be voting for democrats but he will be voting republican in future elections. the tesla ceo in the past i voted democrats because they

were mostly the kindest party but they are the party of division and eight so i could no longer support them and will vote republican. now watch they are dirty tricks campaign against me unfold. it comes after elon musk described himself as a moderate this week. dan bongino said democrats are threatened by elon musk because he's making it harder to control the public conversation, listen. >> i'm a conservative. i'm openly conservative. i'm not a journalist but an opinion guy. my principles have not changed. economic freedom, school choice, regulatory reform. but you only believe in a series of ideas so the way they try to win is by telling you don't vote for us but don't vote against the next guy because he is a racist. so they can't control the information stream, that doesn't work. and then people start to see and hear republicans. >> todd: need to highlight the

magnitude of those spirits be to highlight it for us. >> todd: i will correlation because peer of the left is all about the green new deal. they are all about electric cars. who makes the electric cars? i know, elon musk. he should be there guy. he should be their hero. yet, they are so divisive. they are so hate filled as a party that they have driven their guy, they are green new deal god over to the republican party. if that is happening to you, if that is happening to elon musk, imagine what it is doing to the independent voter in the middle of the country who just wants to move on with their life here they care about all the politics crap but put food on the table not pay $10 for gas. >> carley: the interesting issue that elon musk is making his free speech. but i do think there is something interesting happening where you have several prominent

deep thinking liberals that are moving more to the right. you have joe rogan with every passing podcast, he's getting increasingly frustrated with the democratic party. for him, it was the covid lockdowns and the government overreach. then you have bill maher i didn't leave the democratic party but they left me. the woke stuff that liberals are becoming a parody of themselves. and now you have elon musk saying on twitter that he's going to be voting republican for the first time in his life. at the strangest thing happened when he started to support free speech. they started attacking him as a racist. you could have called that one because he grew up in south africa. if you look at his history, he left south africa so we didn't have to fight in the apartheid military there. so there was absolutely nothing racist about who he is, but they are claiming that because he wants to give equal voice on social media.

>> todd: think of what democrats were just a few short years ago. they were the party that said, "rich people should pay more in taxes." that was kind of their main focus. to a certain extent, that is still what they talk about, but they never raised that because they are so focused on men to get pregnant and pronouns are the most important thing in the world and republicans are racist. they have gone off the deep end and it is shocking to me that the white house doesn't try to get in front of that and say, "no, guys, we have a election to win midterm. we need to backtrack and need to hear." but double down and look at these numbers. >> carley: it is so true and according to political the biden administration no longer to work with him and moving more to the left in the months to come. moving on to this hunter biden might have a new strategy to

flip a script on infamous laptop and hollywood lawyer with a massive counter offense against republicans. >> todd: speaking on money how many tax dollars on joe biden's migrant glaze? dan meuser wants to force the white house to give us the answer. he will be here live close jimmy failla with answers in the form of comedy. attorney general ashley moody, they will all join us on a very busy thursday morning. ♪ ♪

babies are the most vulnerable population. why, why would they have not taken the steps you just detailed? >> also, they didn't put into place protocols implementation for baby formula which they did last week. so they could have done it earlier. as to why they didn't do it, there was no confirmed commissioner at the fda at the time. but it took the president a year to get fda commissioner to the senate purity was confirmed on the first vote. so no blocking of the nomination. dr. rob took over, it was in the middle of february and closed, and lots of things on his plate. i don't know when he was informed or how the center for food of the dhs to prioritize it but they didn't. >> todd: boy, this white house does not act fast unless pronouns are involved. peter pitts, fascinating stuff, great insight. >> lori lightfoot worried about votes while people in chicago being murdered in the street. 911 dispatcher issued a wake-up call after the murder of officer
