>> welcome back to the special edition of hannity. unfortunately that's all the time we have for this evening. remember to watch get to me breeze my show excessively on fox nation also read my column and if you want to keep up with me check out tammy restart locals.com happy new year, everyone. it should be a better one and i sure hope so. >> i am raymond arroyo in for laura ingraham heard this is a special edition of "the ingraha angle" from new york city. to eat meat your pics at raymon arroyo, i will read them later

in the show. 1992 was the year of the woman, 2022 might go down as the year of the woman, across the cultural landscape it suddenly became impossible to say just what is or who is a woman that battle over what once was a commonly accepted definition rages on into the new year as i will show you in a moment. the issue that hit the culture heart in march when even as e-mail soon to be a supreme court justice say for sure what a woman is. >> can you provide a definition for the word woman? >> i can't. >> you can't? >> not in this context. >> you don't need a biologist t figure this out, even children know what a woman is, take a ki to toy story, the little girl was that i want the girl dulled the little boy will say i want the boy doll, and a few will be drawn to this, but this is another story, don't distract

meet the definition of women or women continues to evolve in very odd ways, there was a time when the dictionary could settl this for us and give it a definitive answer this year at dictionary.com announced woman as their word of the year, dictionary.com they write that dictionary is not that last wor on what defines a woman, the word belongs to each and every woman how they defined themselves, that's not a definition, that is choose your own adventure. i went to the cambridge dictionary they just added to their definition it woman to include an adult who lives and identifies as female while they may have been said to have a different at birth. the oxford dictionary is more confusing with 18 new gender identity definitions this year, words like pn gender,

multisexual, brother boy and sister girl, for a moment a boy i guy who had a brother must have been a brother boy, no oxford defines brother boy as biological girl who expresses herself as a male, are you confused? it seems everybody is. >> lit as a woman? can you tell me what a woman is? ticket now i can't. it's not for me to say. womanhood looks different for everybody. used it up there instead tree and swim in our women, what you mean? >> womanhood is something that cannot define. >> this is a problem because language is how we communicate facts. and when language starts to mov inelastic fashion, so does our perception of reality, i could tell you my dog is sitting on m lap, i called my might leatherback my service dog, goo boy. now, you might say that's not a

dog, but tomorrow, the oxford o cambridge dictionaries could very well say dogs are hide creatures that can carry laptop in their bellies, so as long as i put laptop on my leather bag what we are out, there are stat laws protecting my pal and you can't be cruel to my service dog . what we call things has to be precise or it loses connection with observable reality. in this year among politicians even the word mother has been replaced. >> pregnant people in particula our and more danger and the unite states today then we were yesterday as a result of the supreme court's decision. >> legislation has been created to create the bodies of beth lack birthing people since the beginning of this nation. >> is it a birthing person or a pregnant person? are they the same thing? i do not know.

this is from an ultra beauty podcast at transgender host interviewed someone called dyla mulvey need to discuss girlhood dylan is the one with the red bow. >> i know i can still be a performer, i know i'm going to have a family, i want to be a mom when day and i absolutely can. as dylan pursues motherhood, e-mail activist worry that the state laws written to protect biological women from discrimination are being undermined by these ever broadened cultural definitions of what it means to be a woman. female athletes are can feeding with biological men who identif as women, my next guest are sounding the alarm and saying they are taking steps to protec women's rights. joining me now, president of th independent women's forum in riley gaines, former university of kentucky swimmer who compete

against transgender athlete lea thomas berry thank you for bein here. carrie, are these shifting definitions facilitating discrimination against biological women? >> absolutely it really is important when you're talking about the importance of language , particularly when it comes to matters of law, the word woman is used more than 20 times in the violence against women act alone and it really matters if we matter what these words are. women have had to fight hard to have equal opportunity not just in sports, but equal protection when it comes to the workplaces and lots of places. it is really a problem if we ar suddenly eroding just this word woman and this common understanding of what it means

to be equal and have equal opportunity. >> ed trans activists responded to your efforts telling politic that this trend of trying to define gender in is not a new one. with new now is that they are pushing or trying to push it in a legal sense, these women's rights bills are not about women's rights, people define women in different ways. carrie, your response of what you are trying to do in the state legislatures? get rid trying to make sure we have a common language to talk about so we are promoting something called the women's bill of rights and all this would do is make sure that we know what the word woman is to actually define it and define i as based in biology so that we know what they were meant word female is, mail, men, women, so we know the laws that are on th books that we are having a common language and if somebody wants to, if there is policymakers out there who want to include meal bodied people who identify is trends or identify as women, they can do that, but they have to do it with different language we can' redefine the woman word woman t

be meaningless to say hey, who cares it's whatever you think i is and anybody who wants to use the word woman becomes a woman, that's not fair to women it's not fair to women who want to have safe spaces and equal opportunity. >> rightly, you were a competitive swimmer. do women have equal access to sports when the courts and the government are forcing them to compete with biological men as you did? >> absolutely not. this is taking us back to the 1970s to before title ix, and that's what i think is the left is not understanding. they think this is progressive, they think were moving in a forward direction, but this is taking us back half a century. it's not moving anything forwar it's taking us backwards for it. >> you tied leah thomas for first place in ncaa division i championship. here is how leah reacted. >> how does that make you feel when you think about the fact

that you're the first transgender person to ever win division i championship? >> i am very humbled and honore to hold that title, and i can only hope that i am able to giv other trans people the inspiration and motivation i wa given. >> riley, you're thoughts when you. you matched a biological man with greater won one capacity and upper body strength and lea wants to encourage more transgender people to jump in the pool. >> to be hearing that, all i hear is selfishness. i hear self of lack awareness and other disrespect towards women, women who have dedicated their entire lives to their sports, not just one year after the year before break it in the five hundreds and six hundreds as biological male and that's what this was.

just off sheers statistics, nothing opinionated about this, leah thomas, the year before wa ranked in the five hundreds at best, that next year, a year later, winning at national title , being the fastest female and the country in then being nominated for ncaa woman of the year. nothing about what i just said is an opinion. if it frustrate someone or make someone upset, i think that speaks volumes. >> the biden administration seeking to expand sexual protection for gender identities , here is an example of what they might be thinking. this comprehensive identity doesn't appear in all places in women's health magazine, and anatomical six, six gender, enter gender expensive, gender void, omni gender, to spirit.

now, we'll defining women and men even hope it along when you have so many of these gender iterations being created every day and the culture at large? >> i think it will. at think it's important we get back to having common language in your right, it is shocking t see all these new terminologies and categories coming online right the most important thing is to not take our eye off the ball, when it comes to need to have a common language and it comes to terms like women we need to know what we're talking about and know when we talk about it and lock of it we can' have somebody erase that. i do think that is an important step forward. that's what we are working at the federal level to make sure that the federal laws recognize this, but also across the states . i think most people save you right, this isn't a left or

right issue. we have women that we work with it say this is ridiculous we shouldn't have biological men stealing our spots when it come to teams, they shouldn't be taken women's physicians when i comes to educational facilities they shouldn't be threatening women in prisons which is obviously happening every day. this is a big problem but we ca make progress. time encourage. >> amount of time, thank you, happy new year and we will keep an eye on the story as biden vacations in st. croix the knives are coming back for stateside, despite all of this bipartisan accomplishment we keep hearing about, his approva stands at just 43.4 percent and there is trouble brewing on biden's left flank, they are taking to the airwaves. >> i'm concerned with his low polling. >> has low popularity is too much of a gamble pair. >> if he runs, the election is at serious risk. >> representing the status quo

in 2024 won't cut it practicall we can't afford to lose, don't read, joe. >> the don't georgia, michigan, south carolina, the liberal group promotes action.org art not behind this but if not biden , who. kamala harasses even less less popular than the president buttigieg is in the midst of another disaster's transportation crisis and governors can't even control crime in their states, so what should the gop do to avoid the midterm pitfalls and do democrats have shot outside of biden? senior fellow at the as victor, joe biden would be 80 to years old should he run in 2024, he has trouble exiting the stage and sometimes doesn't know wher he is in the middle of the

speech only 20 to percent and the survey say he should run again. could a biden reelection bid actually be the best case scenario for republicans? >> democrats don't have anybody else, and joe biden is good at running negative campaigns for the democrats aren't. we saw that in the midterm election. very friendly, joe biden's bes ally is the extreme right wing of the republican party. >> let me get victor in here, you jump the gun, but i'm going to let you pass. >> i apologize. >> rayman, we can ask representative clyde berg the answer to that question in 2020 when he looked across the field

between overt socialist like bernie sanders or identity politics candidates whether it is pete buttigieg or kamala harris commitment of these people can win, so i am going t have joe biden cover the leftis agenda and we will reinvent him as old joe biden comes round an it worked, but he's not going t be viable he won't be able to runs over back to 2020. maybe you can have eric adams and stacey abrams, but you essentially eliminated any moderate candidates and i think you've eliminated people like jfk or bill clinton wouldn't have apartments party because the republican party went off it , but it's open to anybody, to tim scott, mike pompeo, especially onto santos because they have records of achievement , but they are not socialist.

they can't find another cover. >> doug, we all know kamala harris isn't the best option fo 2024, the question is, if she even mentally fit for the job? even we were not in the holiday season i think there are so man people who are going through stuff, but they suffer in silence and don't have our don' think they have a safe place to go to talk it out. id believe it is a sign of strength to ask for help. >> ask for help. doug, harris has a turbo approval rating, very few accomplishments to speak of, could she even make a run for the big seat? >> she could she would have a constituency in the democratic primary that suggested that

there are a lot of left-wing democrats that vote in primaries , she would appeal to them to minorities, people of color, african-american certainly, but there is another african-american woman who woul probably be much stronger, and that is michelle obama. i don't think she's going to run , but if she would run, she would be the odds on favorite t win against the. >> michelle is not giving up that book to her, she is enjoying this arena. she's not running for the white house. republicans were caught flat-footed in the midterms and americans are already clamoring for 2020 for the federalist reports while some congressiona republicans might think the pos 2020 election integrity fight i over, that couldn't be further from the truth. of unprecedented and unconstitutional changes.

expanding automatic voter registration. stop of federal voting law they're going to start harvesting in master early voting. they can feed them.

the white house is warning to republican congressmen that the are ignoring all previous request for information regarding house probes of the biden administration. those requests have to be redon when the gop takes control of the house next week. james comer is here exclusively to respond to the white house next.

>> the white house message toda to to republican congressmen congressman trying to launch investigations. sorry, we are not sorry. jim jordan endgame, the incomin chairman of the judiciary and oversight committees received letters from the white house special counsel this morning at 4:33 a.m. informing them that the administration had no plans to respond to any previous information request, none of them. this is all related to the gop investigation to the biden whit house for the ministrations has every request that republicans made will have to be redone whe they take control of congress. this includes investigations into covid origins, fbi collusion with big tech, the border crisis, biden family business dealings. joining me now, congressman, th

white house says redo out the request when your chairman. your response. gate disappointing, but not surprising, joe biden promised the americans that he would be the most transparent in history. he is the least transparent president in history. apparently he doesn't know what copy and paste his, we're going to copy and paste and change th dates and resend the request, the important thing everyone needs to know is that requested in nearly to hundred specific request, nearly 100 percent of them pertain to taxpayer dollars . money being spent with covid, money being spent in afghanistan . money being spent with differen projects in different agencies within the federal government. that's what the oversight committee role is, we are supposed to provide oversight. yet joe biden has blocked us at

every turn and surely, everyone has seen by now over the past two years that the democrats haven't provided any oversight they haven't requested any information pertaining to misspent taxpayer dollars, we'r trying to do our job and the biden administration sent a signal logic there were going t do anything in our ability to prevent and block your oversight . could get the letter from the white house counsel office states congress has not delegated such oversight authority to individual members of congress who are not committee chairman, but that they will work with you in good faith and the next congress. do you believe their good faith pledge? and is it accurate that minorit members don't have the authorit to request information as you have been doing? >> chairman of the house oversight committee when trump was president, he had been at ranking member prior to that prior and he cried out when the

ministration tried to block any request that elijah cummings made, but the trump administration did work with th minority and trying to help transfer information to the minorities so they can do effective probes if the request were overtly political, then i' sure the ministration didn't comply, but what we have asked for hasn't been anything pertaining it's all been pertaining to there is no committee in congress that has done any kind of check and balance on this administration. no one's trying to hold this administration accountable because no one has and yet, thi administration just said, okay, we have all your request, but w just threw them in the trash. you going at the start all over. what they're doing is buying time, stalin, and hoping that some of the prices come around.

they lied about the multiple of things on their resume now federal prosecutors reportedly looking into his financial dealings. it doesn't investigate individual members, but the ethics committee will launch an investigation into santos. a red and the paper that is already under investigation pertaining to some of his campaign finances, so i'm prett confident he is going to be investigated by the proper authorities. does that endanger votes that h needs for the speakership. i don't believe that the motion to whether or not deceit santos will happen before the speakers votes, we are still trying to figure out what the processes o that uncharted territory unto frontier.

what santos has done as a disgrace, he has lied to the voters. santos is off to a fast start, but he's off tickets of the lie that joe biden sold throughout his political career. >> we believe it, why is this communist chinese ambassador getting more court time than former celtic star is it becaus the nba is in china's pocket? ns is here to respond after this . stay with us. even if you got ppp and it only takes eight minutes to qualify. i went on their website, uploaded everything, and i was blown away by what they could do. getrefunds.com has helped businesses get over a billion dollars and we can help your business too. qualify your business for a big refund in eight minutes. go to getrefunds.com to get started.

>> with covid cases exploding i china the biden administration is not putting a testing room i place prior to starting january 5th, everyone traveling to the u.s. from china will hav to provide a negative covid tes no more than two days prior to the trip the new york times reports the new is that with a collective shrug by shrug by th

chinese. dr. siegel, they are so worried about covid coming here again from china that were waiting a week to put this in place? and do these two days of testin mean anything? >> first of all, that's a good place to start, i think that already shows it's a political move weeding out week to put it in place, as far as the negativ testing is concerned, of course you can test negative one-day and positive that next rate we have seen that with all the sub variants or on the third day yo test positive so it doesn't mea you're not going to be bringing it into the united states. i like that they're doing something at least, they are saying intermediary countries are also going to be on board with this, that is interesting because with the original trave bands back in 2020, homeland security told me we can't tell if somebody flies from china to italy to hear and that ended up being predictive nobody can

enforce this, so if you fly fro china to italy to the united states, do you think the passport people are going to be able to stop you or homeland security will know anything about it or the airlines are going to pony up the information ? the only way to stop the spread of the variance that are making people very sick, millions of cases, the only way to be an actual travel ban where you don't let people travel into th country. may be that would actually get the chinese attention. >> over at msnbc the covid vaccine panic is still full underway. this is. >> i had a strange conversation with my 20 to and 16 euros just today. a able to infer covert updates, you're going. >> your boosters and both of them said no we don't want to we've had enough vaccines and w don't think we need them. i was sort of shocked and appalled, but is this the kind of response you are seeing from

young people at the moment that they just think this is over an they don't need anymore vaccines ? >> isn't that exactly what youn people should be thinking? do they need new year card i visited greeting them in 2023? >> i see this a little differently, but i do think tha what is really appalling is the perpetuation of mandates, the idea that people going back to universities, some universities are mandating the booster, i don't think that myocarditis is very common, i think it's been overblown. i don't think it should have ever been mandated and i think that has caused a huge rebellio and has obscured whether there is any value to it or not. the population you're talking about is quite healthy and unlikely to have a severe case. >> thank you as always, and happy new year. just how cozy is the nba with china? earlier this year we learned

that leak owners collectively have more than $10 billion invested their and according to espn that includes one owner whose company has a joint venture with an entity sanctioned by the u.s. government and this week that chinese ambassador got some special treatment at the washington wizards game. dea. >> is he trying out for the team ? this comes during the same week that the ccp flu fighter jets over taiwan and the foreign minister warned the u.s. not to cross a redline and told us to stop the link for chinese very draining me now former boston celtic, can anyone walk onto th court and start shooting basket or is this just for government officials from a communist

regime? >> in the nba, no nba's. they give to a genocidal regime. i have been playing 11 years an the nba and over 800 games, i have never ever in my whole career any ambassador of any government that takes the court before or after the game and takes three shots. i remember when they sent me that video i thought it was a joke, but when i saw that from the chinese ambassador, i thought this is just disgusting. the nba literally trying to giv free propaganda to genocidal regime at. >> this isn't the first of the washington wizards will doubt the red carpet for them. back in january they interrupte the game to give the chinese ambassador airtime on the jumbotron jumbotron for a psa.

why is the nba acting like china's pr firm? >> i want to call out if you allow me i want to call out the nba. and i want to directly talk to him and make sure. recently i have been hitting about the holocaust in as far a i know, adam silverberg is jewish. i know that his people have bee slaughtered in the world was silence, now, the muslims are being slaughtered in china, and not only, are you silent, but literally working with these genocidal regime. you're working with the most brutal regime and the world hand-in-hand. now i'm directly talking to you adam silver.

the ukraine if china were to invade taiwan, do you expect to see those same coaches wearing pins for taiwan? >> all the back. it all the ceos, all the companies organizations in the celebrities who are great at right now will support taiwan o not freight absolutely not, all they care about is their own pr all they care about is their money in their business, but yo know what, there are more important things like morals, values, and good principles, bu i hope that people can see it i americans can wake up and see that this is 100 percent

american-made organization in the chinese dictatorship can from the organizations, it is unacceptable up at. >> i agree, and there are literally millions thrown into concentration camps, beaten for their beliefs in who they are, it is a horrible regime and we really should sever all times within including something as incidental as american sports, that should be the first thing to be cut off. happy new year and thank you fo being here, we will check in with you. that tweets are in and counted, your best and worst films and t shows of 2020 to and why it all matters. we will share them in a moment

how is that live-action parade the only thing was the tom hank performance of geppetto. it featured scary that spoke about family and race, fear, an the cost of might worst movie pick of that year it was so torturous badly acted confusing glass onion, this knives out sq is truly it is brittle as hell as every performance brings tears to your eyes, i performance, for more i am joined by author of virtue bombs , a hollywood got woke and lost its soul, what is your bes and worst film for 2022. >> everyone's top gun maverick is the best, it is the one movi where i have yet to meet someon or see a tweets, someone on social media saying i didn't like it. everyone loved it critics loved it, people love too.

action adventure and heroism. it was end of course, tom cruis connecting the franchise, it just did everything right. >> worst movie of 2022. you're not going to like me for this, i really disliked i expected the world from it. of very talented filmmaker it just didn't come together for m i thought they characters were grading i thought the ending, m eyes were rolling the whole time . may be i need to watch it again but the first viewing i was really kaspersky it might be trying to say a lot of differen things, but i thought the storytelling and the suspense was sustained. let's move on to tv. might best of the year, hands down, tulsa king from that yellowstone creator taylor sheridan and sopranos writer, this fish out of water tale of up mobster rico located in tulsa

, oklahoma is riveting television, but it sylvester stallone's incredible performance that brings it all together. stones, tough, funny, heartbreaking and brings the star power to every scene. your shot, christian, best and worst in tv? >> you know, i don't want as much because i'm a film critic. i will definitely mention over us because i watched it all and i can believe i watched it all, woke beyond belief, embarrassingly crude, not remotely funny and to have this evicting for 98 percent of the scenes is just disastrous i don't know what they were thinking. i hope they can course correct but that first season got marginally better at the end, but it was rough sledding. >> let me tell you might worst tv of 2022, the ponderous partisan january 6 committee

hearings. this made-for-tv event was a complete dud, it was the washington establish counterpoint to a trump rally without the jokes and none of the appeal. christian, what does this mean? we see an 18 percent increase i streaming now across the country , but ticket sales are down 30 percent in theaters, what does that mean for the futures of movies streaming at the quality of what we're doing. >> it is fascinating, i think foreseeing a real change go unburied if you've got original movies, big-name stars and huge budgets, on streaming platforms like netflix and hulu, why'd yo go to the movies? if you go to the movie and that movie is a clunker, you have fo babysitting money, the parking and all the aggravation. there is a real problem i don't think it's going to help the i think the strugglers will continue. >> christian, we will leave it
