this evening. as always, thank you for being with us and make initial possible. we hope you set your dvr so you never ever ever miss an episode of "hannity," and the news anytime all the time, 365, foxnews.com, hannity.com, and in the meantime, let not your hearts be troubled, laura ingraham and "the ingraham angle" a standby. i know something that will happen to you that you don't know and you will have to stay tuned and wait for it. >> laura: i can see that you coordinate it with me on the tie-dress combo, you can even see it. it is a perfect -- >> hannity: are you wearing a blue dress? >> laura: everything, same thing. what are you wearing? it's a cute little refrain, but eventually we have to -- >> hannity: there are people out there that are going to believe that. we do not color coordinate on the show. >> laura: i was saying it is fake news. >> hannity: with adam schiff.

>> laura: in all serio seriousness -- in all seriousness, sarah huckabee sanders looked awesome. i'm so happy for her. you know, she went through a lot and that was a great interview, so i'm glad to see her. so thanks for bringing us that. >> hannity: you're going to crush it as always. we will coordinate. >> laura: yes, you did, tomorrow it is yellow, so make sure you get it out. >> hannity: i will wear the yellow tie just for you. >> laura: i'm laura ingraham, this is "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight. since the radical left never takes a vacation from hating on all things american, today was their annual hate on christopher columbus day. now this was the take from the endearing folks over at salon. i don't understand the adulation that some americans bestow on christopher columbus who as history demonstrates was less a hero than a thug exploiting and enslaving indigenous peoples.

well, i bet a more sober assessment comes from xavier simonson in the national catholic register who asked, are we the beneficiaries of his exploration going to law demand for having a conviction, ambition, and courage? or should we blame that man for anything that went wrong afterward including events far beyond his control or events that he had not been there for without even trying to consider how his times were different from our own? well, on this 530th anniversary of the day that columbus landed in the western hemisphere, it's a good time to remind everyone that columbus day was a progressive idea. they came out of the new deal era. back in 1934, fdr established a national holiday urging americans to observe the date in schools and churches or other suitable places with appropriate ceremonies befitting the anniversary of the discovery of america. well, of course, back then the

progressives saw eight italian americans as likely democrats. but now they see them as likely republicans. well, that's really the only difference, and a promise he wants hispanic americans tip over 50 percent from the g.o.p., the canceled culture is going to come for them too. no more cinco de mayo fun for you. well, there is nothing that the left has not touched, nothing that hasn't been trashed, our public schools, our city streets, our colleges and universities, and speaking of, how insane have things gotten? get this, medical students at the university of minnesota must now take an oath to "honor all indigenous ways of healing that have been historically marginalized." speak our institution is located on dakota lands, today many indigenous people throughout the state called the twin cities

home. we commit to uprooting the legacy and perpetuation of structural violence deeply embedded within the health care system. we recognize inequities built by past and present traumas rooted in white supremacy, colonialism, the gender binary, ableism, and all forms of oppression. we pledge to honor all indigenous ways of healing that have been historically marginalized by western med medicine. >> laura: this is medicine 2022. very creepy, wasn't it? i watch the entire thing. of course it's all a part of their efforts had denigrate and replace our own history and some of the most venomous destructive political forces in america today are leading the campaign. speak of the city commission on monuments recommends that chicago's three christopher columbus statues be removed from their public locations. the statues were at the center of violent racial justice protests two years ago, the

committee is also recommended removal of ten other monuments due to depictions glorifying racist stereotypes and white supremacy. >> laura: that idiocy is the recommendation of the committee that chicago mayor darling lori lightfoot herself formed. now she has not had time yet to decide the columbus issue, but she has had time to record this. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> laura: they want to go, they want to go to florida or texas, that's where they are going. italian americans watching all of this, they are rightly outraged. >> we are celebrating number one

the accomplishments and contributions italians and italian americans have made during the development of this great country. and it's not just italian americans, it's everybody together. that's why our parade has made summoning cultures if you are really watching. >> laura: let's remember that the democrats are claiming to be the defenders of norms of democracy. it's usually of course only related to january 6th and donald trump, but this has been a national holiday for almost 90 years, established by a democrat icon. so if there was a norm, well, this would be it. and as for the indigenous people, does anyone really think it's fair to apply today's standards to some of their ancestors traditions. from the cannibalism of the iroquois to the human sacrifices of the aztecs. i don't think so. joining me now is victor davis hanson, institution senior fellow, is it really about columbus or is it about something deeper?

>> i think it is something deeper. i think that they understand that they have the house in the senate and they have had a progressive culture for 40 years, they have the presidency and they have given us nothing but utter failures, so they don't want to talk about the issues that people in the middle class care about. the energy or fuel or the border or crime, so they go back and they treat the past not as tragedy, but as melodrama where it is a binary and these are the good guys or the victims and these are the bad guys that are victimizers, and they don't know. it's all columbus disinformation. columbus was fleeing a situation in which europe could not trade anymore because the imperialists had destroyed the byzantine empire, and spain who he sailed for had come off 17 years of occupation imperialism and did not go to conquer, he just had a theory that he could reach china and india without dealing with the ottomans and found a new world, and what did you find?

you mentioned it, in some cases cannibalism in human slavery and human sacrifice on a gargantuan scale in terms of the aztecs. and everybody says, well, polluted, but history is cross-cultural ionization, yes, he brought yellow fever and he may have brought smallpox, but some of the great pathologies of the world culture after the discovery came from the new world. from syphilis to tobacco, took cocaine, chocolate and that's the way it works. but to simplify, just so that you can in the present re-factor and remanufacture the pass so that you have this future agenda is bankrupt, and that's what is happening. and then to final irony is that we have all of these elite very affluent to leader people in academia with these constitutional government with the freedom, free-market capitalism of western culture, and they have the leaders with

their own culture. >> laura: the victor, you are blabbing in and out, people know this is live tv when you are flipping in and out and we get great points with victor, but we can't hear you very well, victor, but suffice to say this is an attack on america, not an attack on columbus. columbus is just a placeholder for their anti-americanism, thank you. and now another norm the democrats are happy to shatter, democrat candidates and incumbents across the country are running scared and away from debates, because as victor said, they can't run on the record. they are not going to talk about rising crime rates, inflation, recession, certainly not the falling stock market if you look at your 401(k) lately, none of that. in fact so desperate to avoid any discussion of these inconvenient issues that several democrats are either refusing to debate that republican opponents or greens for only one debates very close to election day. in the arizona governor's race,

liberal katie hobbs appeared in a safe zone on "face the nation" to explain why she won't debate cary lake. >> i have no desire to be a part of the spectacle that she is looking to create. because that does not do any service to the voters. >> laura: oh, really, that's too bad. think about that, of course the real spectacle is what is happening to arizona under joe biden's open border. it's a huge surge in crime and homelessness, but defending her views on any of that, well, that does not do a service to the voters. what an insult. another reason to vote straight ticket republican in arizona. and to look at poor john federman. i mean, that man should be home trying to get well, instead he is trying to stumble away from accountability for his positions on everything from ending cash bail to banning oil and gas. uncle fester men only agreed to one debate and it is late on

october 25th. >> it is normal to have one debate in october, and that's exactly what was to all always the plan, but because he has been struggling in the race coming in on coming he tried to turn this into an issue. >> laura: struggling, i just wanted more debates earlier and noting that early voting started in the state in late september. if i were a political consultant advising hobbs and federman, i would be telling them to avoid debates too. change the subject immediately from the economy and crime to abortion, i don't know, trump, climate change, whatever. look at, i got it. the record is indefensible. what they are doing makes sense as a selfish political matter to avoid debates, but it is incredibly disrespectful to the voters. speaking of disrespect, by the way, what new hampshire and incumbent senator or maggie hassan is doing to her state is just obscene.

she is only holding about one campaign event a week. i kid you not. and of course she won't agree to debate her challenger, now in new england, that's where i'm from. people used to pride themselves on vigorous debate and in new hampshire, who in the name of robert frost would think that a new hampshire politician would even consider hiding from her own constituents? hey maggs, the state motto is live free or die, not let's flee and dock. you notice that beyond avoiding debates, liberals like senator hassan, they aren't even hosting public town halls either. they used to do that all the time. so voters don't get to ask for questions pretty much about anything. certainly not about issues they are getting hammered by, the policy she voted for. family is a new hampshire now are being forced to go into debt big time just to afford the essentials. high inflation coupled with historic interest rate hikes

have some new hampshire residents relying on credit cards to get by. according to the wallet hub, the average new hampshire household has more than $8,400 in credit card debt now. now this is heartbreaking, it is infuriating. and lived in the '80 is in college, and if you were a candidate who wanted to compete and a lot of them came through, you had to face the people. you had to answer a lot of questions, but now with that you know what hitting the fan, they are going to give maggie hassan a pass, people of new hampshire? how is that granite in your veins? when americans are suffering, no politician should be able to skate three election without defending his or her record. never should be allowed to happen. and of course, today's media part of the protection racket,

haven't they, holding all politicians accountable, to holding democrats coats. joining me now is stephen milner, former senior adviser to president trump and founder of american first legal and miranda devine, new york columnist fox news contributor and author of my favorite "the laptop from." stephen, now i want to focus on new hampshire, this is the live free or die state, okay. how can maggie hassan avoid debating her opponent and be taken seriously by anyone there? >> well, she shouldn't be. only with the indulgence of the left-wing media is that even possible. maggie hassan has voted for every single radical left policy that is ruining the state of new hampshire for the open borders and the drugs that are destroying an entire generation, for radical gender ideology, for rampant crime, she has voted for

all of it, or voting record is indistinguishable from that of bernie sanders or chuck schumer. she is a hard-core leftist. she has nothing in common with the people of new hampshire and that's why she won't debate in the media is letting her get away with it, and that is a travesty. the era of objective media sadly in this country is over. >> laura: miranda, people's pocketbooks don't like, everybody knows that they are getting poorer, the streets are getting less safe in america is getting weaker under democrat rule. everybody knows that. there's no debating that. and in new york governor kathy hogle, she has not been elected by the voters for her position, she has only agreed to hold a single debate and of course at the end of october, or early voting has artie taken place in the month of absentee voting i think by then, so she just refuses to be held accountable as well. i think that is defective reason to vote against her. >> it really is, and i think

that the is very weak democratic candidates are trying to use the joe biden strategy, and i guess it worked for him, so they figure, why not for them. they are cowards, and they are letting down the voters, the voters are supposed to be doing the due diligence during the campaign to decide which candidate is going to do the best for them, which candidate has the policies that will solve the problems, particularly looking in new york, crime is a massive issue, and kathy hogle refuses to even tell the voters how she will deal with the problem of bail reform that is letting all of these crazies out on the street. and she won't talk about that and she knows that as soon as she goes into a debate stage against lee zeldin, she -- he will wipe the floor with her and that's why she is running away. but she wasn't elected as you say and she is like a lot of these democrat candidates, john federman is another one, truly a

hopeless candidate, unfit, special needs candidate and he is only managing to stay upright because he is protected by the media. >> laura: yes, and even cnn was forced to report on how democrats now view biden's presence as we approach the midterms. >> what we know about this president's plan in the final four weeks? >> clearly not going to the races that matter for democrats, and seems like john federman does not want him to appear in the final structure of the race, and is not going to georgia. >> laura: this is not working out well for him on the trail. >> a giant anchor, but this is astonishing, laura, because every single democrat go through the list, mark kelly, ma maggie hassan, tim ryan, they are all trying to establish

distance between themselves and joe biden. they spent the last two years as his most loyal surgeon soldiers. faithful servants doing everything he wanted, everything nancy pelosi wanted, everything chuck schumer wanted, what they are using is wall street money and silicon valley money to put ads on tv that are lying to voters about who they are. everyone of them and another democrat run is at down the line joe biden, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, kamala harris democrat who has enabled every single policy from crime to inflation that is wreaking havoc on our country. and if our candidates can make that point once you get to the debates have crush their opponents by making those points as blake did, as jamie did. >> laura: let me tell you about that, stephen, i'm glad you mention that, because tonight jamie vance eviscerated phony populist tim ryan, here is one of the many superb moments from j.d., check it out. >> two years ago you supported banning fracking on public lands

and generally speaking, that crushes the ohio energy sector, and one of the reasons why manufacturers are going to china, another reason ohio manufacturers go to china is because the chinese undercut american wages, the only way to really combat that is tariffs. 2018, 2019 and 2020 you oppose the tariffs that started to bring some of the manufacturing and industrial base back to o ohio. >> laura: we had those batman sound effects, the cut powell, zowwy. he just floored them, and that's why they don't want to debate. >> he was brilliant. exactly, he was brilliant, you saw blake masters the other night, brilliant, cary lake, would be brilliant, and lee zeldin will be brilliant, so the is democrats not only do they have no policies, not only do they have a terrible record and a president that is a layaway, they also really don't

have the ability to go head-to-head against the is very formidable republican candidates. >> laura: they don't have the protection racket going with the media, they are just left on stage with her policy positions, and that's an ugly place to be right now. miranda, stephen, great to see you, thank you. joe biden told a group of dnc donors that we are closer than ever to nuclear war, well, does he not realize he is contribute into the possibility? why is the head of the american federation of teachers in ukraine of all places? that is ahead. ♪ ♪

talk to anyone in san francisco and they'll tell you now is not the time to make our city even more expensive by raising taxes. san francisco has one of the largest city budgets in america. yet when it comes to homelessness and public safety, we're not getting results. what we really need are better policies, more accountability, and safer neighborhoods. vote no on propositions m and o.

♪ ♪ >> we must demand the immediate negotiation of a peaceful end to the war in ukraine or we will end up in world war iii and there will be nothing left of our planet all because stupid people didn't have a clue, they don't understand what they are dealing with, the power of nuclear, they have no idea what they are doing. >> laura: he is right and it's something the show has warned about since february when the ukraine conflict all began. but for joe biden and his team of naive war cabinet folks, they are just waking up to the reality of that wasn't over $50 billion of weaponry and aid

could actually produce in ukraine. can we even track where money is going? not until a fund-raiser tomorrow night -- last night that joe biden realized he has brought america to the close edge, what if we have not faced the prospect of armageddon since kennedy and the cuban missile crisis, he said. well, that a mission set off alarm bells around the globe that meant that the cleanup crew got right to work. >> the present and i think was accurately reflecting the fact that the stakes are very high right now. his comments were not based on new or fresh intelligence or indications that we don't have any indication that he has that. >> laura: daniel davis, senior fellow. and i just don't think they want

to admit how badly they have missed the whole thing up. >> they continue down this path, the amazing part is donald trump has been right about almost everything in this situation, and i have looked back at his remarks on germany, the idiotic energy policy which was funding and empowering vladimir putin, really european infantile and financing the invasion, he was right about the weakness post afghanistan, and he is right in this situation, and we find them escalating towards nuclear war, and the biden administration does not seem to get out of this except to give you continue forward. the amazing parts with all of this is the people that were saying that somehow donald trump with his reckless behavior was somehow going to start world war iii are the ones that actually agitate for joe biden

to start world war iii, and at some point he would hope that diplomats and statesmen would say, you know what, ukraine has nothing to do with the u.s. interest in everything to do with russia's interest, always has and always will. and they need to sit down and figure what borders work for both before we accelerate down the path, we are headed toward something that will not be good for anyone involved in europe in the u.s., anywhere in the world. >> laura: during a phone call, they promised that the support needed to defend itself including advanced air defense systems. now lieutenant colonel coming said that joe biden needs to change course, but it seems that -- you're not doing it any time soon, that is escalating. is he not? >> that's exactly what i have been worried about, and it could not have been more happy to hear

president trump making those comments that he just did. and you know, and all the time he was in the white house, he took a lot of heat for engaging with vladimir putin. they called him a potent apologist, but he kept us out of a war. and relation stable, but now that you see since he has left office, now that things have been ramped up and continually going up all the way to the war started and this is the wrong answer to say that we are just going to continue to go and not make any changes at all, but president biden was right last week when he said that we are heading towards nuclear potential catastrophe, but we have to do something to change course, and end up someplace that is bad for america. >> laura: one of our favorite puppets of the left, lieutenant colonel vin men is gleeful over the whole situation, watch. >> it is a one-trick pony, he can't do anything on the battlefield, it's getting defeated at every turn. we just need to saturate the

environment better than this could easily reduce the pressure that russia is putting on ukraine and make this a much, much more bearable campaign. >> laura: ned, how does this get us farther from nuclear war? >> dozens, and laura, the shame of this entire situation as we have somehow let it be russia bad coming ukraine good, both are corrupt nations, both are involved in something that has been going on for centuries, and we continue to escalate it and fund it with tens of billions of taxpayer dollars and i think that the whole entire situation, one of the things that has been deeply aggravating to me is watching republican senators sell us out on this like lindsey graham. apparently there is not a war that he does not like as he agitates for this, and i remind a senator we are not in the 1980s anymore, vladimir putin might be a thug, but the evil

empire does not exist. at some point it would be nice if republican senators would actually stand up and say you know, we should probably hit the brakes on this and choose a diplomatic path and call an end to this it so that we don't end up in a bad place. >> laura: lieutenant colonel davis, i think that it has to be asked of the american people, maybe it's hard to do that in the middle of the midterm. are you willing to support a u.s. war with russia to save ukraine? yes or no? because that is the question. it's got to be answered. >> i like that framing. because when you see the polls that have been asked, the american people answer that question exactly the way that you think they are going to, and i like the way that ned framed it a second ago is that this is an issue between russia and ukraine, if they both have an interest on the border, it needs to be resolved. they have no national security state, and the fact that we continue to potentially be a

part of all of the escalation is just going to be in a bad place, and we need to focus on american national interest before someone else's. >> laura: germany seems to want to de-escalate things now, right? germany is the biggest economy in the e.u. if germany does not think this is a big enough problem right now at this moment then we have to ask ourselves some harder questions and i want the people of ukraine to be safe. i think it is horrific what has happened in them, but come on. >> i think that germany is looking for a way to survive the winter, because they had made so many terrible energy decisions, they would love to figure out how to keep get russian energy. it kind of surprised me that germany has not taken a stronger role to say we need this to end if nothing else for its own survival. >> laura: i think we will start seeing that conversation. that's my prediction. thank you. celebrities had the campaign trail and speaking of ukraine,

♪ ♪ >> i will say in order to make it work, he we need meth stabilization center in portland, we need them when they are in a meth related psychosis. >> laura: forget portland, do they need a meth stabilization center? that was oregon democratic gubernatorial candidate talking about to measure 110, which decriminalized hard drugs like, heroin, lsd, and cocaine. want to show you what effect that had statewide. these are overdose deaths in oregon. 2021 measure 110 was on the ballot and then approved in november. yellow is 2021 after it went into effect to that february.

and greene is 2022 so far. overdose deaths increased nearly 50 percent from 2020 to 2021. does not take a math genius to figure out what happened here. joining me now is christine giles income of the republican running for governor in oregon, all right, the rcb average has her at 2.4% ahead in a state that has not elected a republican in 40 years, i love this, christine, what will this meth stabilization center accomplish? is there any good? >> you know, this is a continuation of the field leadership, she is out of touch with oregonians, making choices of making decisions that are just politically driven, the reality on the ground is that drugs harm family is. and drugs are hurting our state, they are hurting our community, and frankly as you noted, people are dying. the answer here is not to continue to enable this behavior, the answer is to get

people into treatment and long-term recovery and not to assume that this is how our state has to be long-term and therefore we need to create meth stabilization centers, that is the wrong answer. speed limit xp to i want people to see what is happening with crime in portland, and then again, everyone who knows portland and who has been there over the last 20 or 25 years, it is a beautiful city. but it has changed dramatically. and so crime largely remained steady in 2021, but portland shot up dramatically, the number of violent crimes in portland increased 38%, that included homicides, rapes robberies and aggravated assaults, all have been more in 2021 then the previous year, christine, your response to that? >> we need more law enforcement on the streets. and frankly, we need to governor that is not going to engage in
