as always, thank you for being with us, thank you for making this show possible. please set your dvr so you never, ever, ever an episode of hannity and for news anytime all the time foxnews.com, hannity.com, and in the meantime let not your heart be troubled, laura ingraham and the ingraham angle. i watched you last night. i like it when you're pissed off and i shared your exist offness. i was pissed off, too. republicans need to get their act together and play the ballot game like the democrats do or they can't go into every election down 500,000 votes. >> laura: yeah, at least mccarthy won the house but everyone else has make a case as to why they deserve. and i like 'rona mcdaniel a lot, i said that great person and great woman but, i mean, you do have to make the case as to why you actually deserve to get reappointed. i mean, a college basketball coach would have already lost his job with this record. so we're going to apply at least

the same standards to this as that. so hannity thank you. >> sean: i'm not getting involved in that match however i like it when you're pissed off. >> laura: tip your tow in the water hannity, it's okay. we've got to go. all right hannity great to see you. awesome show. i'm laura ingraham, this is the ingraham angle from washington tonight. now for a party that claims to hold greedy corrupt capitalists in check, democrats seem to be on a pathway toward letting crypto creep sam bankman-fried skate. wait until we tell you how house financial chair woman maxine waters, what she just announced. but first, stolen innocence, that's the focus of tonight's angle. now, i still remember when my daughter maria, maybe she was five or six, she wanted an american girl doll for christmas. so i went and looked at them. i fell for theened bra's really wholesome kind of patriotic marketing and i made sure santa

put one under the tree that year complete with a few outfit changes and each version of the doll had its own storybook that accompanied it. well, moms across america, before you think of shelling out what is it over a hundred bucks for a made in america doll, well, for little suzie, well, know a few things first. mattel manufactures them in china. okay? second, the toy maker is now using its brand to promote transgenderism to little kids. its story books discuss how to delay puberty with hormone blockers and instructs on ways to keep information from parents. now, can you believe this is where we are in society where there's such a thing as doll propaganda? now, mattel isn't even trying to be subtle about its agenda. again, the doll's instruction book tells boys that they may feel like girls inside, which

they say is totally okay. and it introduces the concepts of being non-binary, again little kids, and using alternative pronouns. but, look, why should any of us be surprised? the gender fluidity movement may have started on college campuses years ago but now it's infiltrated every aspect of corporate america and our public schools. so trans employees, they check boxes and esg land and trans applicants get the attention of college admissions officers. and, of course, the entertainment industry they've been on board with this for years. and plot line after plot line you see promotes characters bravely rebelling against stuffy old norms by declaring they just don't fit into their bodies or their biological sex. >> i feel more myself in boy's clothes. actually, dad, i don't think i'm a girl at all. >> suzie. >> even though you've always

thought of me as a girl, i'm a boy. >> laura: bad acting, bad plot. an entire cottage industry of trans healthcare experts also has been created to conduct workshops and get paid handsomely for it and they do it for businesses scared of lawsuits. and then they're welcomed as speakers at prestigious medical conferences. enter dr. marissa ladinski. an associate professor at the university of alabama berg ham. she's described on the school's web site as having a i research interest in providing affirming care to lgbtq youth and identified with families in the deep south against the kind of faith-based communities there. in the deep south, things are obviously really bad. now, at the academy of pediatrics conference in newsom california recently, she spoke clogly about trans ideology and, more disturbingly, about the bold suicide of a trans girl.

>> and in the final days of 2014, a local 16 year old young lady of trans experience stepped boldly in front of a track for trailer ender her life. her suicide note, written to post on social media about an hour after her death, went viral, literally, around the world. >> laura: this woman is a total whack job and on the war path against traditional americans. now, remember, religious americans are the problem. trans pioneers, well, they're the answer. of course, the aap doesn't make its videos public. hmm, wonder why. sadly this is all in line, though, with the insanity being streamlined by the administration of the practicing catholic joe biden. >> we have reached a tipping point for the role in life for the health and well-being of

lgbtq plus youth and young americans. i encourage all of you to to think of yourselves as am bass tours to your communities. these conversations don't have to be limited or restricted to a setting but for princeical school teachers school boards. >> laura: lord only knows how many pediatricians vehemently disagree with these obscene plans to steal our children's innocence. i bet the majority see the butchering is evil pure and simple but are afraid to speak out. but not julie mason, a fellow at the american academy of pediatrics. >> they have no idea how you identify which kids are trans and require treatment. they're like we're just technicians and we'll just tell you if you have a trans kid we'll tell you how to do the transition. and then the american academy of pediatrics the next year leapt into that void and said, oh, we'll tell you how you know which kids. you ask them. and if they say they're trans, then they're trans. >> laura: there needs to be a massive class action lawsuit

against aap. the director of boston general's gender clinic unwittingly reveals their dirty little secret about these strong drugs downplayed as puberty blockers. >> i worry that they're being given out a lot like candy which is great in some ways but it's also like, okay, well wyou know, you need to have the conversation. >> laura: she says great in some ways. it's not like they're life changing ramifications involved with these drugs or anything, no. i mean, once you encourage transitioning at any age, there is no guarantee that you can ever reverse the mental or the fiscal damage done to yourself. >> it's been the most difficult thing i've ever gone through in my life. in addition to the health side effects i experience, the way it affected my career as a singer has been the hardest thing to deal with. my singing and speaking voice will never be the same after my time on testosterone. >> laura: but these drugs are

great for kids, at least that's what another aap executive committee member says. >> puberty blockers can be such a great medicine for kids who are starting puberty. parents may or may not be accepting, this may be a surprise to the parent. it just slows things down. they're very safe and effective. then the next option is gender affirming hormone therapy. >> laura: there's big money here. children are their target market, and the poor kids are falling into the trap. >> i used to feel when i first told you i was a girl. >> sixth grade is such a hard year anyway for everyone especially when you're trans. >> back when i was in eighth grade over winter break, that's when i first was exposed to, i guess the word transgender, and i just, like as i was reading about it, i just felt like, like that was me. >> laura: this is an aggressive marketing push coast to coast.

except in states in florida where courageous governors like ron desantis are successfully fighting this attack on innocence. the march of the gender radicals will continue. left in its wake, though, of course, our children's innocence, grooming them for the new battles ahead. the fact that professional organizations, such as the ama and the american association of pediatrics have been subverted by the political and sexual ideology here is terrible for the already bruised and battered reputation of the public health sector. although the pediatrics association claims to be working for the health benefits of all children, four out of its six members on its lgbt health and wellness committee endorse puberty blockers for patients as young as ten as cross sex hormones to patients as young as 14. this is absolutely appalling and

it's frankly satan i can. if you want to know the truth breadth of the aap's horrors i recommend you read aaron's entire piece at the free beacon. the innocence and wonderment will continue and we must never, ever allow ourselves to be intimidated by all those people with titles and their advanced degrees or government positions. after all look at what they did with covid. the lies, the corpsups and cashing a sass nations of doctors. the same dynamics are in play here. but now we're onto their game and that's the angle. joining me now is dr. marty mcgary fox news contributor. dr. makary it seems to me the american academy of pediatrics is perpetrating a dangerous fraud on our children, and it has ramifications that are so

serious, not just for their innocence but for their mental and falwell being as well. >> well, a lot of pediatricians are upset about the aap leadership. just to give you a little sample, 40% of pediatricians in rural areas don't even recommend the covid vaccination for children yet the, a ap makes it sound like that's misinformation. you know, glorifying suicide and its contagious effect of glorifying it publicly is a well-known phenomenon. and if you actually go to the aap web site it says on there that suicide should not be glorified and yet that's exactly what was done. and the one point i want to make laura is there is nothing more barbaric of a society than the genital mutilation of children for no medical indication. and when they say hormonal theater with which is the manipulation of multiple morgan systems is safe and effective, they don't know.

we know that vitamin therapy has long-term consequences, how can altering the entire hormonal access have no long-term consequences. >> laura: this dr. julie mason i mentioned her in the angle dr. makary, she seems to be one of the few senior members of the aap speaking out and she spoke about the, you know, this is just coincidental sharp rise in the number of people declaring themselves to be trans patients. watch. >> prior to 2018, i had maybe one trans patient. like, this is a thing that occurred in 2 out of 10,000 children. one in 20 years, yeah. and then they started to come every few months and then more often. >> laura: well, in the uk, dr. makary, gender dysphoria in children they report has increased over 4,000% in ten years. i mean, they do suggestive

sellings at mcdonald's but this is suggestive selling of transgenderism which takes it up quite a few notches, don't you think? >> it's encouraged in some school systems and certain circles in the united states. how do you have a school sem where 40% of the young children claim that they don't identify as a malar female. somebody has taught them that that is something that they can turn to. and let's be honest if we had good studies there is a hypothesis that people turn to this as children in order to rebel. there may be a pattern of a lack of love in their background. that may explain the high suicide and depression rate in people who claim to identify in this way. we need good research and the american academy of pediatrics has chosen not to fund good research and instead to rule by opinion and if you listen to some of their members like dr. mason who i actually like, they put forth a resolution saying if we're going to make any recommendation ons trans american let's have it be based on data and the aap hostilely

took that resolution down. >> laura: didn't dr. paul mchugh at johns hopkins the guy who did all the ground breaking research on gender dysphoria and transgenderism? isn't that the biggest body of research we had? and he certainly was not on board, it didn't seem like, with any of this stuff. >> a lot of doctors are not, and cancel culture has moved into medicine now. we don't have the open forum of scientific opinions that we need laura right now. >> laura: disturbing. >> and that's very concerning. >> laura: weaponized medicine, politically weaponized medicine. unbelievable. dr. makary thank you for speaking out. thank you >> republicans had a very, very strong election with the rnc's record this cycle of turning out more than four million more republicans, of winning state wide in almost every battle ground state proves that the turnout worked from an rnc standpoint we flipped the house and our ground game worked.

>> laura: as we said last night i said at the top of the show, everyone you know, the angle likes 'rona mcdaniel a lot she's a wonderful person but the results speak for themselves. she's right about the house flipping but it's time for change at the rnc. her tenier needs to come to an end. every incumbent in the senate running for senate stayed in the senate. there was no republican flips of any of the seats held by innocent democrats. what's that about? what about early voting? says the party transitions into this new generation i hope of elected leadership, this has to be the same at the rnc. earlier today congressman lee zeldin said he would not be running noting that mcdaniel's reelection pre baked by design. but he also said that doesn't mean she should be running again. now, if the rnc wants to completely ignore the grass roots of the party, well, they can forge ahead with the status quo. but i think they're going to be

really unhappy when they send out all those fund raising letters and get a big nothing in return. it's time to look for new leadership that will revitalize the rnc and help the party move to victory after victory in 2024. and that would mean supporting our next guest. joining me now harmeet dlon rnc committee woman from california candidate for rnc chair and full disclosure harmeet i've known you for about 25 years we both went to dart not and the same law school you're a few years younger that be me lucky girl. but i've known you and i can say with full candor to been as i always try to be candid. you are a consummate professional and you don't take crap from anyone and you do it with a smile. but is it pre baked that ronna mcdaniel stays on as rnc chair? >> thank you for having me laura and for your kind words. i can understand why lee zeldin

feels that way he probably ran into a brick wall by those who were made a lot of promises by the chair and members with the chair of the rnc those factors make it daunting. i'm making calls to members i'm hearing a lot of disgruntaled members who want change but they're afraid. because there's a culture if you don't play ball with the chair and the corrupt driven machine inside the beltway you'll be fun i should. you may not get plum committee assignments, your state may not get transfers to the building fund, you may not get help with your congressional races and on and on and on. this culture of retribution and sort of transactional relationships is not what the rnc's supposed to be about. it's supposed to be about electing republicans all over the country and i've been appalled what i heard the last two weeks as i begun to make phone calls to members. i pledge to turn that around laura. we cannot have a top-down

consultant driven 1990s 2,000 era get fat off of media and direct mail and not do efficient changes that are necessary to compete with the democrats. the aren't running campaigns like they were back in the day. they are absolutely aggressively and just brutally on every innovation in law on every innovation starting 501-c 3s and fake non-profits that do the work of the democrats and we are not innovating. we are not leading. our messaging is not clear and device. >> laura: it's steal t. >> we are not motivating the base. >> laura: by the way, msnbc we don't have to play the sound bite but suffice it to say the fact that we're so worried about you, that tells me everything i need to know, namely that you're the right person for the job. they're like, well, she could be problematic. harmeet we're going for covering this i want to be fair to both

ronna and you but again no offense it's time to change it up. harmeet thank you very much >> the shocking material made available to the children of service members in defense department schools. >> plus senator tom cotton's message to corporate american spitting in the face went viral. the video and the center next.

♪ >> laura: it is long passed time for republicans to start auditing how all pentagon dollars are spent, not just those spent without any oversight to ukraine tens of billions of dollars. we just got our hands on shocking materials being offered within the department of defense education activity schools around the bases and so forth. it's a system educating 66,000 kin der gardeners through graders of military families. beyond agenda transgender teens speak out oral sex performed by an eight year old, that's available to middle schoolers. then there's middle school's a drag, you better work, w e r k another book available a 12 year old boy who starts a business for the management of child drag queen shows. and also available to high

schoolers is a book titled this book i gay which provides instructions on how to find and participate in orgies at sauna or bath houses. joining me now is the house armed services committee member who obtained these materials decorated combat vet mark green. congressman you plan on sending a letter tomorrow. this is -- i mean, republicans just wanting to write a blank check to this pent gone like we're still in the greatest generation here, you know, with world war ii movies playing in the background, this is not the military of yesterday. >> no. there's been a huge increase, laura, in just two years of this pornographic material in the libraries and in the curriculum of our dod school system detailing how to actually commit sexual assault. these are the men and women trained to protect us. you know, and we're teaching their children how to hurt other people. it's absurd. it's insane.

it's tragic. >> laura: well, what can republicans now that you guys are going to take control of the house. >> yeah. >> laura: we had mitch mcconnell, looks like maybe they're backing up, trying to push an omnibus which would fund the military the next ten months and the additional appropriations for the national authorization defense fund, what can you do to stop this crap, sorry, from being funded. >> yeah, my preference is a short cr. >> laura: continuing resolution which gives you guys leverage. >> that's exactly right, so we can start with a new budget and get that done but we have to put in the national defense that the dod schools can't do this. and we can actually tell them to stop doing that just like we're telling them now to end the vaccine mandate: so that's in this ndaa, national defense authorization act. and, yeah, so we can just write it into the law. >> laura: as democrats on the hill are signaling they're willing to make concessions on vax mandate, seems a little like

ca pukey theory to me the white house is digging in. so watch this. >> republicans in congress have decided that they'd rather fight against the health and well-being of our troops than protecting them. and we believe that it is a mistake. making sure our troops are prepared and ready for service is a priority for president biden. the vaccination requirement for covid does just that. >> laura: she really just needs to hand out the briefing book to all the people in the room and just dispense with the briefings. so what about that? i mean they're holding firm or is that just kind of a negotiating ploy? >> i think it's a negotiating ploy. >> laura: yeah. >> we were assured the vaccine mandate was going to be gone. that's the word we've gotten and i believe kevin has negotiateded that. >> laura: congressman thank you and i look forward to hearing the response from them to your letter tomorrow >> it isn't just the pentagon that's getting more scrutiny from conservatives but corporate america, as well. a few years back the grocery

store kroger fired two christian employees in arkansas after they refused to wear logos representing the rainbow gay pride flag. arkansas senator tom cotton didn't forget that when kroger's ceo came in front of the judiciary committee begging republicans to instantaneously support their latest merger. >> they expect republicans who are traditionally for free enterprise to come to their defense. i cautioned them for years that if they silence conservatives and center right voters across the country, if they discriminate against them in their company they probably shouldn't come and ask republican senators to carry the water for them whenever our democratic friends want to regulate them or block their mergers. i'm sorry that's happening to you. best of luck. >> laura: joining us now is senator tom cotton. senator, this is a lot bigger than just about one merger and one grocery chain, is it not? i mean, the trans agenda and the

corporate, you know, woke agenda, is infiltrating every aspect of corporate life through esg and other liberal initiatives. >> laura very much so. a lot of these large publicly traded corporations have become an arm of the democratic party. in this case you had kroger who didn't just discriminate against two bible believing christians firing them for refusing to the wear what they say was a gayed pride symbol and then settling it, you also have them forcing employees to go through critical race training. you saw this where brian kemp stood up to coca-cola for falsely defaming the law they passed last year that made it easier to vote but harder to cheat as we saw in the last turnout. desantis standing up to disney world. corporations for a long time have come to republican politicians and expected us to stand up to them since we are

traditionally more friendly to free enterprise system than the democrats. but when they silence our voters the way big tech does or in this case kroger discriminate against our voters, they need to think twice. because i am not going to do it and i've been warning them for years privately and i said it publicly. that when you come here and expect us to defend you after you attack our voters my position is going to be i'm so sorry that's happening to you the i wish you all the best. >> laura: it's not even an open question at all that beck business is now aligned almost 100% with democrats on every single social issue, almostr single one certainly on climate change. but senator i want to get into what's happening with this tik tok issue because a number of states across the country are going after tik tok on security grounds. you have indiana's ag just sued them for exposing minors to sexual content but the white house is apparently considering some type of -- agreeing to some kind of national security

concessions supposedly made by the parent company. watch. >> maryland and south dakota became the latest two states to ban tik tok on state devices. is the federal government and the president considering doing something here? >> so i'm not going to comment on tik tok while the committee on foreign investment in the united states's review is ongoing. the biden administration is focused on challenge of certain countries, including china. >> laura: yeah, well, tik tok told fox business that they're confident that they're on a path to fully satisfy all reasonable, underline reasonable us national security concerns. senator, why should tik tok be present in the united states at all? in any way, shape, or form, given wa we know about byte dance and the ccp? >> shouldn't be present in the united states, laura. there's a lot of things that you just point out there that are bad about tik tok, the way they

expose minors to violent depraved degrading sexual material or young girls to videos about body image issues, stuff that they would never let chinese teen-agers see. or the risk to your data security and your privacy. but if you take a step back and look at the bigger picture, why in the world would we allow a chinese-owned company, which has to answer to the chinese communists, to be one of the largest media platforms in our country? would we ever have allowed soviet russia to own a major newspaper or a major broadcast network during the cold war? of course we wouldn't have. and it's very disappointing that the biden administration is sending signals that they might tolerate tik tok's presence here in the united states despite the grave threat it poses to all americans. >> laura: senator, are you confident that mitch mcconnell's going to beg off of this omnibus spending bill? >> it sounds like that's the direction we're going. i mean he's made the point publicly that the democrats have spent hundreds have billions of

dollars on their domestic priorities the last two years. it would be a folly for republicans to agree to spend even more on those democratic domestic priorities just as the ransom to get the money that our troops need. if the democrats continue to insist on that, i see a short-term spending bill into the new year when the new house republican majority can provider us support in the senate and we can get i better deal for what the american people voted for. >> laura: senator, thank you >> now some grinchy young parents don't want their children believing in santa and biden is all set for a 2024 run. or is he? raymond arroyo has it. seen and unseen next.

>> laura: it's time for our seen and unseen segment where we explore the culture stories of the day. fox news raymond arroyo. a disturbing new trend among gen-z parents, i don't even know who they are but they refuse to believe in santa now?

what? >> worse. they want their children to not watch? . ♪ >> see, start a riot ♪ ♪ >> before our daughter was born, we decided that we weren't going to lie to her because of the psychological trauma that occurs with children when they find out that you are parents have been lying to them for years and years and years. there's a lot of research on it. >> laura: what about the trauma of the way he talks. >> if they can deal with the psychological trauma of dad wearing that unicorn hat they can handle santa. this breaks our heart. because you and i believe in santa. in fact i think i believe in santa now more than whiffs younger. >> laura: me too. >> santa's a spirit. i tell my children this, every year he takes human form he brings love graciousness generosity. and chesterton said it best cannot the child pass from a child nancy fancy to a man's normal faith in holy nicholas of

the children, or must they break from the land of make believe to a world of no belief. >> laura: no belief. >> and that's at the heart of all of this. it's people who simply want to believe nothing. we need awe, we need wonder, particularly at christmas, don't take that away from children. leave them alone. >> laura: again the wonderment. you and i have talked about that a lot where everything's so instantly accessible, waiting every year to watch the wiz around of oz or the sound of music was so exciting. >> i think they also don't like the nature of good and evil, naughty and nice. >> laura: oh, coal in your stocking. >> as you reveit on the angle we are adult kern's on children while depriving them of childhood. in coming house democratic whip katherine clark. >> let me tell you what it means to me coming in as a different generation. i remember my middle child waking up with nightmares over

concern around climate change. >> laura: you got to be kidding. >> laura if the kid's waking up worried about climate change inflation or the national debt, you put that on that child. you are imposing adult concerns on a child. let them have a moment of joy. >> laura: they did the same thing with covid. the kids are terrified. they have a.whoa 00 # 03% chance of dying of covid. >> it's a heart breaker. let them put their cookies out. >> laura: enjoy. >> laura as we heard earlier this week, at the state dinner the french president toasted joe biden on the news that he's running for president of 2024. i'm only glad when macron said let's toast biden didn't reach for the wonder bread. but listening to him at this arizona factory built by a taiwanese super conductor manufacturing company yesterday, it's hard to see how he runs again or runs at all. >> arizona's a hub, literally a hub, for technical changes that's going to take place. we can do, what we can do

interested in subpoenaing him. joining me now is amala ekpunobi and steven miller founder of america first legal and former advisor to president trump. steven, you can't make this up. they were the warriors against corrupt capitalism and now? democrats? >> now democrats are the party of corrupt capitalism. and the sooner that republicans figure this out, the sooner there's a path to building a durable republican majority. this whole scandal with sam bankman-fried, the massive democrat spending, the kid glove treatment from democrats is a massive giant opening that republicans need to take advantage of, be the anti corruption, anti ca rony capitalist party, the erin in worker party. >> amala apparently maxine waters referenced this about sam bankman-fried as lies. where did the money go. >> that's i brilliant question a

lot of people should be asking. there's a video of maxine waters a year ago blowing a kiss at sam bankman-fried and i wonder what that kiss is for where the money has gone and how much he's been moving around. but i have a feeling maxine waters have a similar interest of moving money around and misusing it. >> laura: steven imagine if this were a donald trump supporting corporate ceo who was accused of this -- or thought to be guilty of this level of impropriety at the vet least with billions upon billions of dollars? can you imagine -- maxine would be doing one of those rants, you know, from some make shift box outside. >> maxine waters away from the microphone or chuck schumer or nancy pelosi or the rest of them every single day hour and hour, plus the washington post, the new york times, cnn, msnbc not to mention a massive federal strike force composed of doj and sec and every alphabet in the

entire washington dictionary. >> laura: amala i know you've been following this in california but elon musk converted some office space at twitter's head coaches into little sleeping areas and this drove the san francisco mayor london breed, who has nothing else on her plate over there. just drove her over the edge. now the department of building inspectors there is reportedly launching an investigation into whether the building is being used as intended. amala, there's no politics involved here, is there? you've got an injection site or, you know, a tent city in front of the building, that would be fine, but the city would give them a tax break then. >> you're absolutely right. it's clearly a witch hunt here. they're going after elon musk because of the ideology and the ideas he represents and they're scared of what he's going to do. the twitter files that are coming out have some very big implications as far as corruption happening at that company. the last thing that the city of san francisco, with the homelessness problem that they are experiencing should be
