prior to that -- he leaves behind his wife and two children. all in our thoughts and prayers tonight. that's all the time we have left this evening and as always please set your dvr. a foxnews.com, hannity.com, let not your heart be troubled, here is laura with the "the ingraham angle." >> laura: sean, bernie was one of my close friends. i don't know if i would -- i'm not sure i'd be doing what i'm doing now in the relationship with bernie, all of them. that was my first real tv that i did was on his show and the simulcast on the other cable network. but you know how there are certain people who can make you laugh and certain people who can make you cry laughing? well, having a few beers with

bernie mcgurk and -- i mean, he's like a brother. >> sean: i knew he struggling with cancer and i'd been in touch with him. last time he started talking, hannity, it's o'connell. >> laura: we lost a lot of wonderful people lately. incredible americans. he was one of them and i just concur with everything you said. >> laura: he's amazing man, great show, yeah. they are all messed to messed. >> sean: that's why i did radio because of that show. otherwise, 17 years, that's why went into radio, being a guest on the show. thank you. >> laura: we've got a lot to get to, i'm lauren ingram and this is "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight. they dei and the bullies, the

focus of tonight's "angle." every time you hear some educator or corporate flack reference the important efforts to promote diversity, equity, inclusion. scam. the grouping of innocuous terms has become its own excellence across the landscape. the acronym is dei but it's more like bureaucracy, victim i'll let of, incompetence. corporations spend as much as a billion dollars per year for dei compliance being paid a hefty sums to oversee the woke training and compliance. but they dei is its own cottage industry with its own side hustles. even the reigning industry has all the bureaucratic diversity lingo down pat. >> we are int integrating der io

every program. they are being implemented and deployed globally. >> laura: globally. for the efforts to adopt quasi-quota programs and hiring, they get a gold star from another dei front group. >> diversity inc. named us as a top 50 companies for diversity and ranked us as a top three lgbtq company. >> laura: of course, if it's a stupid idea you can bet the nea has been promoting it for years. >> it's important to understand that not all of our -- are as innocuous as peanut butter and jelly. they shape the language we use in the way we interact with others based on race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, and other cultural identities. >> laura: translation, you may not think so, but you're a rotten racist especially if

you're not a minority. >> this cycle of socialization can lead to micro-aggressions, stereotypes, discrimination, and even violence. these unintended sentiments that are embedded within the cycle of socialization are built around a culture of white supremacy that we must continually acknowledge. >> laura: the nea. remember, these are the people who are organizing the teachers who teach our kids. these type of creepy propaganda style videos, they're all over the internet it's painful to watch but i had to do it. it's wrapped up with the antiracism and the allyship movements. it's a bunch of corrosive trap and is not just found in the education institutions but it embedded itself into all aspects of corporate life. training videos, seminars. i like this one, it builds itself as an unconscious bias workshop via zoom.

are you looking to start or continue the dei learning journey? it's only a matter of time before it seeped into the practice of medicine too. grown men and women real medical professionals prostrate themselves before the dei mafia. >> can you help us understand this implicit bias he saw? i'm a doctor, patient comes in. white, african american, what happens in a way conscious or unconscious in the interaction that becomes a generation of the inequity. >> they find that over 70% of all americans have an anti-black bias. >> laura: medical schools and hospitals are on board as well. it's all based on the fake signs you reference on implicit bias. as they manipulated the science on covid, groupthink on vaccines and masks, they are doing the

same here. so, dei becomes a religion like climate change. you must believe no questions asked, no doubt been tolerated. it should be obvious why biden and his cabinet have repeated the mantra so often that america is systemically racist. they are laying the groundwork for complete dei transformation of every aspect of the u.s. government and american life. from day one, i remembered the biden administration has emphasized they are own hiring is based not on merit or talent, but on first. >> build a government that looks like america, including the most diverse cabinet ever assembled. to speak of the most diverse administration in the history of our country. if i should no, we have appointed the most latino leaders ever to the cabinet level positions. >> laura: you got pete buttigieg, transportation,

alejandra mallorca, javier masaru, lloyd austin. it's a leftist box checking and it's been a unmitigated disaster for you and i. the mayor of south bend, pete buttigieg, some how has the expertise to the department with 55,000 employees. biden set the stage with a big executive order that planted these poisonous seeds. highest mitigation trainings at the energy department. they pushed and oppression narrative at the state department. and of course, mayor pete on d.o.t. even called dei critical in advancing the departments mission. my friends, so much as breaking down around us and it's not just because of the supply chain.

but it's the biden team we know doesn't care. in the end, they hope to train a new generation to believe that this is the acceptable way of organizing society. we know it's not. the entire point of the civil rights movement was to promote equal opportunity without regard to race or ethnicity come up the democrats instead are returning to old ideas of racial and gender determination but calling it by different name. speak of the immediate feeling you get or the thoughts you have about a person and the assumption -- anything you feel really extend somewhere from an experience you had or your upbringing. >> depends on the region you're from, the country you're from, the background you grew up in. that shapes the person's unconscious bias. it's because there's a lot of opportunities to promote people within the workplace. people assume a woman is of a certain age where they are married and she's going to have don't want to have kids.

>> laura: here's my predi prediction. companies that employ these methods are going to lose market share, they are going to lose sales, they're going to lose customers to companies that promote people and they hire people on the basis of merit. state and local governments with dei will lose businesses and they'll flee to states that resist the discrimination. hospitals that implements the racist higher reprograms will end up delivering care that is subpar. let's put it this way. do you want to take your sick child to a doctor who landed her position through a dei program? or you want to take your sick child to the best doctor you can find regardless of dei status? the midterms are around the corner. in a time where our countries in such dire shape, we need the best available people in all critical jobs.

it's time to reject candidates who believe in governance through woke discrimination, the same people who stoke animosity and acrimony among americans. it's time to defeat the dei industrial complex and all the bias bullies. that's "the angle." joining me now is laura morgan a registered nurse who says that she was fired for refusing to do the implicit bias training that she was being told to do. she's also the program manager and do no harm, an organization dedicated to protect health care from the radical ideology of antiracism. now, laura, you went from having a six-figure job to having nothing at all. you're an rn. you could have done the implicit bias training and kept collecting your salary. why didn't you? >> year rights. good evening, laura, i'm happy to be here.

i definitely could have gone in and checked all the boxes that my employer wanted to check which was to say that i acknowledge that, yes, i have unconscious biases toward my patients and that i must confront those at the point of decision-making in confronting any patient or any of my peers so that i do not intentionally treat someone unfairly or perhaps even harm them. so as you mentioned these are faulty sciences, faulty ways to approach patients when there are much more clinical decisions to be made. >> laura: the founder of an organization called advancing health equity which provides equity training and consulting to companies thinks differently, laura. watch. >> it can be a key driving force of the social determinants on health. we ask our colleagues and our nonblack colleagues to think

about their privilege and their respective roles something happens at work are you silenced because silence is complicity especially in a base of racism. >> laura: laura, silence is complicity. if you do not declare yourself guilty of implicit bias and declare yourself an ally in antiracism, i guess you cannot be a very good rn anymore a very good surgeon any longer. i guess that is it. >> that's apparently what they want us to believe. the idea of implicit bias and the close cousin antiracism declares that the entire health care system is systemically racist. it's hopelessly so-and-so the biases must be rooted out and in order to do that they must beat us over the head with a constant drumbeat of if you do not feel this way, then you must be a

racist and nobody wants to be called a racist. these kinds of ideas to be placed in front of health care providers really erodes the dynamic of trust that is essential when caring for patients. >> laura: being woke in the field of medicine means you can actually arrive at very bad medical outcomes, correct? being woke and can kill you in the medical context. >> well, you mentioned wanting to be able to take your child to the best position possible. if that's really what you want to be on your health care providers that the front of their mind is why is this person coming to see me? what is this person's clinical problem? what are the critical thinking skills i need to use to address that problem and implicit bias wants you to think nope, you need to confront those biases

that you are just really not even aware of but you need to have right at the tip of your tongue and be able to address those before you do anything else. >> laura: propaganda in the field of medicine. we saw it in covid and we are seeing it here. it laura, thank you. i want to describe the left's midterm agenda very simply. if this is what they are going to give you more if you'll elect them here to abortion, pots, more january 6th hearings. and they've got nothing else. to help with that, 33 days before the midterms, joe biden is caving to the radical left requests. >> no one should be in jail just for using or possessing marijuana. it's already illegal in many states. if criminal records from around the possession i'm announcing a pardon for all prior federal offenses in the civil possession of marijuana. >> laura: it starts with

marijuana but where does it go from there? oregon was the first day to decriminalize and then they legalized it for recreational use, then a few years later they decriminalized hard drugs. cocaine, heroin, lsd, even meth. how things looking in oregon? we know how they are looking and not good. matt schlapp, cpac chairman and dr. russell kmart the medical director of partners and safety. if john fetterman is in a tight race for the senate seat. he's been urging the administration to do something like what biden did today. i guess that's who's calling the shots. >> to me, laura, this was the posters from the dnc who seemed to run the doj by the way who went to the white house and they are looking for every niche thing that the president can do to kind of rally the troops for the midterm and it's so cynical because the question of the

impact of drugs on the kids and societies is immense. i've spent a fair amount of time in colorado and they were kind of at the beginning of this ten years ago. now colorado lead statistics and all kinds of violent crimes and overdoses. this isn't just about marijuana, it's about a whole embrace of a drug culture and if we care about people, that should guide what we do and the democrats show it's not about people, it's about winning races. >> laura: bloomberg recorded some facts about marijuana legalization. it's almost addictive as opioids in teens. rates of cannabis disuse rose in states that recognized legalized rec -- recreational marijuana. doctor, this is only going to get worse. and you can kind of see the

train coming down the track. your reaction tonight? >> well, it definitely is getting worse with the lack attitude toward drugs in general. but i want to say that president biden and his pardoning of the drug users in the marijuana users, i agree with them. no one should go to jail simply for smoking a joint and that's ridiculous. the fact is that president biden has been very anti-legalization. in those ways, he's been very good on the topic carried on the other hand, new york state we have a different situation. not only do we have the cannabis criminals been pardoned, but they are also getting a $200 million fund to start up the addiction for profit marijuana industry in the state of new york. >> laura: addiction for profit. here's what van jones did to try

to explain what his biggest problem with marijuana is. >> black people are still far more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession then white people. what happens is if you're ever in american you will have more contact with the police anyway because the police over police black communities. if you wind up getting picked up on the charges. reducing the number of charges that come against an african american kid is overall really good. >> laura: so, over policing is the problem we have in the inner-city? what? >> this war on the police which caught fire during the violence of black lives matter riots a few years ago is unending. the fact is, drugs feed violence and a lot of the communities and cops are there on the front line. not every cop makes every perfect decision and nobody of us would in the stressful situations. what i see in polling is that people of color are embracing

the police because they have chaos and violence in their communities. the idea that continues to somehow cops are a maligned influence in society and feeding racism is wrong. one question on the marijuana thing, what i disagree with his joe biden pardon these people and didn't take people who were imprisoned and take them out of prison because they're not violent felons. these people weren't in prison. it's almost like it's okay with what they did and that's a big mistake in society. if these drugs are causing people great harm and it's okay for politicians to speak the medical truth. >> laura: doctor, will this or will not lead to more deaths, psychosis, schizophrenia in some segments of the young population who ends up doing pot because it's more permissible? >> welcome it's a very dangerous for the young community. people who are young have grown

up only hearing that marijuana is medicine. if you are on family feud and it was said medical blank, they'd answer marijuana because this is what they've been told time and time again. what we do need is for the youth to be educated that this is not just a beneficial natural substance, but it is an intoxicating addictive drug causing a lot of problems. >> laura: thank you. have you heard this, a tech company ceo arrested on suspicion of stealing data from hundreds of l.a. poll workers and storing it in servers china. we've got word the fbi could be moving on the hunter biden. harmeet dhillon has all the latest on that in moments. ♪ ♪

♪ ♪ >> laura: the founder and ceo of an of michigan software company was arrested for stealing data from hundreds of l.a. county poll workers and then storing it on servers in china. foxes lucas tomlinson standing by with all the details. arrested on suspicion of

stealing data and prosecutors said they found information stored on servers. five year up $9 million bounty, monday, "the new york times" are part of the company had been the target of the so-called election diners reporting using threadbare evidence were not at all, the group suggested a small american election software company had secret ties to the chinese communist party. given the chinese government back door access to a personal data of 2 million poll workers in the united states. linda died the accusations and reported that the company claimed all the data for the american customers were stored on secure servers. no ties to the chinese government. however, one day later, the ceo of the company as you see he was arrested by the l.a. county officials in connection with

possible theft of personal information about the poll workers. "new york times" updated the story since then saying the arrest was "prosecutors in los angeles who brought the charge against him said they found company data stored on servers in china." he's been the subject of "wrongful attention" in the data was not stolen suggested. >> laura: wild story, thank you. >> he's a grown man come of smartest man i know. pure intellectual capacity. as long as he's good, we're good. >> laura: we might not be good anymore. federal agents believe they have enough evidence to charge hunter biden with tax crimes and making a false statement regarding a gun purchase. if source is telling fox news the decisions now in the hands of the u.s. attorney in delaware. it's a holdover named david weiss. when asked for a statement, hunter biden's team didn't address the potential charges

but instead focused on the leaks. it's a federal felony for the federal agents to leak information about investigation such as this one. any agent that you cite as a sourcing article apparently has committed such felonies. joining me now, harmeet dhillon chairwoman of the republican national lawyers association. i guess leaks from the fbi are now bad again and they've been doing it for how many years against donald trump? mueller investigation on down. how might this all tie back in the end to joe biden? >> laura: i think you hit the nel on the head. the whole issue is not about hunter biden and if there is a plea deal with hunter biden it's to draw the sting away from the allegations. dating back to the obama years, the biden family has been engaged in a serious influence peddling with foreign countries.

indisputable ties to china, ukraine, kazakhstan, romania, the former wife of the mayor of moscow transferred $3.5 million to hunter biden that appear some sort of money laundering. for all those allegations, drug abuse, video from the laptop you talk about a couple small charges. if this is all to lead the attention from joe biden who tony bob linsky has been saying for the last couple years and you would know as a former business partner. intimately involved in the influence peddling and money laundering and other activities that are criminal in nature by the biden family. i don't think the leaks are coming out for the purposes of furthering integrity and law enforcement, their political reasons. >> laura: the author of "the washington post" offered details earlier. watch. >> the avesta mission was opened

in 2018 and going on in a long time. agents believe for a number of months they had a chargeable case against hunter biden. but it's important to remember charging decisions are not made by agents. charging decisions are made by prosecutors at the justice department. >> laura: when they clarify if it's about trump or one of his children or for context. they were upset about what some old licensing deal that they had in china. they thought it was a big deal. he goes over to make all the money and get a ride over with his dad when he's vice president. comes back and all of a sudden we see email traffic about the big guy regarding some amount of money that was made there. >> i'm old enough to remember when charging decisions when james comey did that with the respective emails on hillary clinton server. there is absolutely double standards at the doj and the fbi

depending on who is aboard. what the biden family -- not hunter biden come up on hunter biden, jim biden, joe biden are accused of doing incredibly is very big and international in scope. i think that nothing's going to end up happening. it would be a gift to the biden family if hunter biden was offered the ability to plead to. it needs to be pursued by the house, republicans taking back control. if we need to see justice done in this case because the ukrainian money flowing into the billions right now. i think you have to look at the ties of the biden family with correct activities in that part of the world. you'd be a fool to ignore those facts. >> laura: trying to remove certain prosecutors and suddenly spending $60 billion in ukraine and i don't know if we are able to track wherever the money or the munitions end up in the end.
