♪ ♪ 's be when we began with a fox news alert, we wait two events and it's been busy already. remarks from attorney merrick garland and white house briefing. after president biden with escalating political crisis with his handling of classified documents. now, a second batch found in one of his two homes in delaware. this is >> gerri: .
9:01 am
my cohost emily compagno, gerri willis, leslie marshall, and sean duffy. and bret baier, this is going to be good. the big news today, white house council sank the classified materials and the garage storage space of the president's home in wilmington delaware. in the garage just to keep up, the president said they were locked up next to his bed, he literally said next to his corvette when he was pressed by peter doocy. >> classified materials, what were you thinking? we will get a chance to speak on this god willing. i said earlier this week, by the way, my corvette is in a locked garage so it's not like down the street. but anyway -- yes, as well as my corvette.
9:02 am
but as i said earlier this week, people know i take classified documents and classified materials seriously. i also said we are cooperating fully and completely with the justice department's review. as part of that process, when reviewed where other documents from my time as vice president were stored in finished the review last night. they discovered a small number of documents of classified markings in storage areas in file cabinets in my home in my personal library. this was done in the case of the biden -- this was done in the case of the center, the department of justice was completely as was done at the department of justice was immediately notified. and the lawyers arrange for the department of justice to take possession of the documents. so, you will see all of this unfold.
9:03 am
>> harris: yeah, we will see it unfold. white house correspondent peter doocy with the latest unfolding developments, peter. speak with the council office did not say anything about the corvette but the reason i asked the question that way during cod the biden campaign posted at his residence in wilmington backing a corvette 1968 stingray into a garage pier that is why i asked that. that is when we learned something from the president that was not in the council statement, which is it is locked. they didn't have anything about it necessarily secured in the garage. he says the documents in the car are safe behind a locked garage door. the counsel's office also said this and it was kind of vague, a small number of additional biden obama documents in wilmington, delaware, residents. while that is happening over on capitol hill, the questions that people who just got subpoena power have a pretty
9:04 am
straightforward. why was lawyers moving from the first location? normally when we move something you get together and buy it be to move stuff but they have lawyers and they are packing boxes and looking at things. so a key question when did president biden know about the second batch because carefully word statement he only said this week he only knew about one set of documents. >> they found some documents in a box, in a locked cabinet or at least a closet. as soon as they did, i realized there were several classified documents in that box. and they did what they should have. >> critics are claiming there is a double standard because president trump involved in something similar but not identical, biden said the dangers of exposing sources and being irresponsible. >> how can anyone be that irresponsible? isn't that what this president says about the same classified
9:05 am
documents? >> the president spoke to this personally. he spoke to this personally. again, he believes personalized documents and information should be taken seriously. >> white house officials continued to say president biden's personal lawyers did everything right once they realized they were classified documents somewhere that they shouldn't be. but they are not telling us at least yet how the documents got there in the first place, harris. >> harris: peter, great reporting as always. let's go to washington, d.c., with satellite bret baier. brett, talk to me about what we saw the speaker of the house because we know that congress was going to look into potentially the first batch when that came about but now there are multiple locations that nbc news is reporting that the staff are looking at. biden team attorneys. >> i think with the change over the house, you are going to see a lot of questions and a lot of focus on this in various committees and obviously with
9:06 am
the democratic control of the house. i think the best line came from jonathan turley who said come on the previous show, the corvette standard doesn't actually appear in the federal register. [laughter] how these documents are locked in the garage and what happens with this is really key. and i think the biggest portion that we don't know is why the president said his lawyer said, "don't ask about what the documents were." why don't we need to know what the documents were? what are the documents? according to multiple reporting, they are classified markings that are pretty high on the classification channel. the actual federal registry says that it's gross mishandling of documents. it doesn't matter how many and we talk about this extensively with the mar-a-lago documents which hundreds. >> harris: we talked about it with hillary clinton, too. >> that is right. >> harris: we talk about it
9:07 am
with hillary clinton and i realized she was not president, fancied herself but couldn't get there. but she had materials as well. this is not the first time we are seeing this. it is not the first rodeo when you consider the clintons and the bidens. it is hard to believe a man stands up and says, everybody knows how serious i am about classified documents. if you ask about him he is told, "don't say anything." >> and is told to read exactly from the sheet and both times he's been asked about the documents, he read from the sheet on the podium. the biggest thing we will see this afternoon is what happens the attorney general merrick garland? if they name a special counsel. there are a lot of people on capitol hill that look at this and say, you can't name a special counsel, number one and not name special counsel -- >> harris: james comer said that. >> other lawmakers as well. that will be the big questions
9:08 am
this afternoon. >> harris: congressman cohen where the new chairman of oversight in the house now is on the committee as the news was breaking last hour with the president. so on and so forth with mccarthy and he said he's not a big fan of special counsel of the situation because it is a political pick. he's not sure if he can trust it, especially based on the fact. what are your thoughts, how do we get the information that we were kept from having as media and public for two months? we don't even know what we don't know. >> no, we don't know what we don't know. the fact that they were found november 2nd and the fact numerous democratic campaigns used the mar-a-lago documents issue as a hammer on some republican candidates and the term elections, we will not find out until january that this is all going on. that is another big question. when did the president specifically know this was an issue? and was it beholden on the white house to come out until the public at that point?
9:09 am
>> harris: all right, bret my know you are standing by with us and we will come out on the couch now. emily, strict culpability is what you talked about yesterday in terms of it doesn't matter what the president remembers or how he feels about certain things. none of that what he intended and an adept but strict culpability problem. >> emily: strict liability but you guys, there is nothing to see here. it is totally fine. it was behind a locked garage, right? it was with a corvette and it was not a port appear the garage wasn't open. everything is fine. absolute joke this president is. then he's reading off of his talking cards like that will help in court, buddy. i can't help but think that it is purely deceptive to put a bunch of classified documents in a folder marked "personal." interestingly mixing in with possessions which is funeral arrangements for his son. then a couple behind the bike that he fell on and oh, it is a stingray, guys.
9:10 am
it's a stingray. it is a locked garage. my neighbor's garage was locked when broken into. that persuades the american people that he not only took his oath of office seriously but that he's actually protecting our national security? and here's the deepest question of all. we talkea moment ago about merrick garland appointing the special counsel. >> harris: -- and on november 18th, merrick garland announced the department of justice a special counsel with the mar-a-lago document case. they were discovered november 2nd conveniently before midterms but we didn't hear about it until just now. and david spunt points out, national archives notified the doj merrick garland but we do not know when garland was specifically notified of the biden documents. it would be surprising if garland was not aware of the biden documents when he
9:11 am
announced the trump special -- >> harris: what does that mean? >> he likely knew and yet again we are still not hearing about the special counsel appointment would be after public pressure and after all this comes to light and after if the stingray, guys, all is fine. >> harris: that is what chairman of oversight james comer was saying and he wouldn't trust the special counsel being named by major garland. although he says because it was done with trump come out of fairness it should be done now before we move on i want to get to kevin mccarthy on the discovery of the classified documents. let's watch. >> i think congress has to investigate this. here is an individual in office 40 years. here is an individual that said on "60 minutes foul so concerned about president trump's documents locked behind and out the vice president keeping it for years in the open location. but i do not think any american believes that justice should be equal to all appearance be when you don't represent every democrat in the world, but i am
9:12 am
curious to know what you someone on the left thinks in this particular moment. >> leslie: i don't. i thought i did. first of all, i and fairness and i do believe special counsel should be appointed and national special counsel appointed the and it mar-a-lago documents which i think a bigger problem here is this system when a president leaves office or vice president leaves office to have documents, especially top-secret documents not leaving anywhere whether mar-a-lago or a garage in the best interest of the law security of the american people. second, i think there is a double standard on both sides. my side, there is outrage when donald trump, oh, these documents, but i hear republicans 24/7 acknowledge him outraged about this now that it is president biden who has the documents. i was not hearing that sentiment from the republicans when it was
9:13 am
donald trump. it is one either way and there are legal issues either way. and comer, talking republicans, congressman comer on earlier, he also said he doesn't think joe biden did in a wrong and was imprint saying that two days ago. everybody knows this was not malicious by president trump or president biden. the american people want to know, but the american people did not elect these officials to go on and on and on appear they have a divided government because they want the government to work together to get things . >> harris: the speed of news, comer spoke two days ago we didn't know and he is on with me and things are breaking. his questions now go to, "there needs to be an investigation." and he would capitulate there needs to be special counsel to make it even with what they did with tom. >> leslie: i agree. >> harris: at the same time why were we not told how much politics was employed? i'm sure he would have much to see if another batch found. that brings the issue, nbc news
9:14 am
says it has a source telling them the biden team and i'm not saying the step of the white house, but we don't know. we know a group of attorneys potentially and even the president himself, looking for other locations where classified documents might have found their way while he was vice president. >> leslie: that was yesterday, right? >> harris: the report, yeah but look what we know now. >> sean: i think emily tapped into this. you have a timeline. >> harris: but yes. >> sean: starting november 2nd, they knew there were documents in this think tank on capitol hill. they didn't know about it until this week. so now, on the 11th of january, yesterday, they find more documents at his home in delaware. the statement has a clever line and the attorneys can tell me if i'm wrong or off at this, but they said the president's lawyers have searched the president's home in the wilmington, delaware, home. the other locations were filed
9:15 am
at his presidential office and might have been shifted in 2017 transition. leaving open the possibility that there could be more out there. at the beginning of the story, garland puts a lid on it 1:15 today and silent. we may not get a lot of information going forward to. on the "60 minutes" interview, that is better look. he laid out trump. alan dershowitz on "hannity" we need a wall to define what calms for former presidents. >> harris: leslie. >> sean: when it comes to classified material. all of that is in play when we don't know where this goes. and i would add, there are so many -- karl rove was on with us this morning. >> harris: i watched it. the whiteboard was everywhere. >> sean: how did they get there and will make him home how
9:16 am
did they get there. did you use the memoir and is there a connection between a biden dimmick biden center and it was $54 million total from other countries of which $14.5 million was from chinese connections. the sources of the chinese money and why won't the president release the documents and mentioned within turley told us it was ill-advised for him to go off script right there when peter doocy was answering the question. he had the prepared statement that he read, not well, but the whole idea about it was in a locked garage with a corvette. it does not like it was sitting out in the streets. things like that, lawyers do not like. >> harris: then mccarthy picks up because there is a staccato to the drumbeat. the president speaks boom, boom, boom everybody comes. the house speaker says, "they were just in the open." he can say that because the
9:17 am
president said it was locked up next to his garage, which i have windows in my garage like you had a family member where somebody can break into the garage or the glove box. we should be asking, did the butler do it? speed to the team is saying we are cooperating fully as if that assuages breaking the law appeared again going back to strict liability, it doesn't matter whether malicious intent. it doesn't matter what so after. i murder somebody and i tell you, hey, guys i cleaned up the mess, the blood, all good. the murder still happen and frankly national security and any type of faith in this administration is what is being murdered right now. >> harris: real quickly as you were talking i got to thinking because i thought jonathan turley at the new york op-ed was so important. and what he talked about was part of what he had said with you today at the end of the program this morning. he said, "why is it that we don't know all of the different places and all of the different
9:18 am
times those documents were moved between 2017 and now? "so, we know some went to the penn biden center and some went to his house and potentially other locations, but we don't know how many times they were moved. now, i will ask my team, are you say eight dimmick saying this to put on the record? we cannot independently come from this at fox. the fbi reportedly from other sources, not fox news yet, we are working on it. the fbi has interviewed multiple aids. whoever came into contact with this and how long have they been talking to people? before we are getting no answers at all. that is the problem. i have questions. i want people to do their job and step up and start telling the american people what's going on, whether the press version or biden. she's telling reporters that they can't ask questions. the president is saying, i'm
9:19 am
doing what my attorney is telling me to do so i'm not looking at documents. at the end of the day, somebody needs to step up. it's like nobody wants to do their job. speed to the chain of custody we have been criminal law and if a piece of evidence is not categorically, specifically, precisely, and accurately recorded, every step of the way where that piece of evidence han and who's been in contact with his thrown out. entire verdicts are vacated, entire cases are nullified because as a piece of evidence has somehow lost its way. we cannot account for a moment where this president has been. here too i draw that analogy, a u-haul to drive it from the garage and oh, we need to stop in and out and made a stop here. it ended in classified in a garage pair of them operate this administration has made of those documents focusing on 2,017th-2t
9:20 am
happen before during and the tip of the iceberg because if we start to have badminton sets and everything else in the garage, i wonder what else we can look forward to learning about? >> harris: asking the question at the end of "the faulkner focus" five seconds because he was burning to ask but tongue-in-cheek but he was serious. does hunter biden have a key to the garage? because of the nature of the foreign intelligence that we do know about among the classified documents in the first batch found at the penn biden center where having a mention of speed 19, ukraine, china. because of the outcome within the questions about hunter biden's business dealings with particularly two of those countries come into play. bret baier, your thoughts? >> i think it is a good question. you have hunter biden under investigation and part of that investigation with influence of pedaling. obviously, all of those things.
9:21 am
yes, at one time he looked at that home and in and out of the home. all of those things are legitimate questions. the bigger issue is the politics at this moment. for anybody that looks at this and says, this is different. yes, there are differences, big differences. you can't say either one of these things the mar-a-lago documents or the documents at the home of the penn center are good or okay. neither are. the mishandling of classified information is a serious, serious thing. but you also can't say that you can't discount the biden handling. i think that we will see the attorney general not do that. if he follows what many experts are saying he needs to do is to appoint another special counsel. >> harris: real quickly, bret, they are and the nation's capital and us in new york so we are not getting the details you might be. we don't know what merrick garland is going to talk about. it could be about the trumpet investigation and it could be
9:22 am
about what we are learning about biden but no doubt he will be asking about biden. your last word before we go to break. >> right, i think it has to deal with this as it is developing. you are right, we don't know specifically from the justice department, but it is gathering steam here. it is a big, big story. it cannot be put under the table. this is something every network will have to cover up your the contrast and the political moment is really telling. >> harris: bret before we go to break -- >> sean: he touched on the politics is exactly right. this president was to launch a second campaign. remember all the considerations and we will give it some thought? early in the fall, numerous articles written about the fact that if he did decide to run, you would be 82 years old be getting a second term here that was a signal i believe within the democratic establishment thy did not want him to run for a second term. well, he's getting ready to gear
9:23 am
up again, and i don't know what this does to the campaign but the politics definitely -- >> harris: you and i know because we have done this a long time. sometimes, you let things out while you can still control them. look at all of the political capital that he built up interest the last few days. several appearances around january 6th. and what happened on january 6th is separate from the politics of the moment for the president to the united states. so am i didn't want to lean into what was going on. i'm talking about what was going on in 2023 on january 6 peer of the politics of the moment and him being presidential in those moments. going to the u.s. border with mexico and picking up those political chips along the way. and then, suddenly, this starts to drip, drip, drip here it is it possible that it's not just, "oh, accidentally we decided to
9:24 am
make it now? ">> leslie: who stands to benefit right now from the leak? some might argue some from his own party who are done with him. before i would disagree republicans all of a sudden newborn batches of documents, i know i'm the grassy knoll and not a conspiracy theorist. >> harris: republicans could not get into where the core of that is so this is on biden and his side. coming up, the man accused of killing the four students at university of idaho, he is back in court today. prosecutors are deciding whether to pursue the death penalty in that case. the latest from idaho next. ♪ ♪ in my ozempic® tri-zone, i lowered my a1c, cv risk, and lost some weight. in studies, the majority of people reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it. ozempic® lowers the risk of major cardiovascular events such as stroke, heart attack, or death in adults also with known heart disease.

9:29 am
straight-faced, not looking at the crowd or media. he faces four counts of first-degree murder in addition to burglary charges and prosecutors are weighing whether to pursue the death penalty. during the hearing bryan kohberger waived his right to a speedy preliminary hearing. essentially what that means is that the prosecution can take their time. so at the end of the day, what happened with housekeeping, they talked about dates of the next hearing so there was nothing substantive with this but it is more procedural. i have a question for you. a thoughtful question but it is this, the question of death penalty on the table, if he had committed patricia's motors for the sake of argument he did it and if he had done it 8 miles to the west, the death penalty would not have been an option because it's not an option in washington state but only idaho. giving he fancied himself, we understand, some type of
9:30 am
mastermind and phd in criminology and outsmart the system in light of the fact he made immature mistakes that enabled him to get caught, do you see this as the most fundamental mistake he made? or potential bargaining chip that he knew just like we saw in florida and just like we have seen around the country that a lot of people use as, you know what my will plead guilty if you take capital punishment off of the table? >> sean: i know i will disappoint you but i don't know the answer to that because i don't know the motive for why these poor people were so brutally murdered. and idaho, however, there are eight people on death row today at the state has not executed any one in years. the last inmate to be sent to death row with 2017 for killing a cop in northern idaho and paul who we rely to take us to the trail, he is not going to be back in court until june. june 26th. almost july.
9:31 am
this is a six month punt of this trial. what happens during the proceeding when they come back? this could go for five days. both sites will apparently present evidence. so, you will get a trial before the trial is how paul characterizes it. he says the system feels weird to him. and i guess the families have to wait. though families have to wait six months before this thing gets into motion. remember bryan kohberger is studying for his doctorate in criminology. did he commit the perfect murder? or did he just think he was good at it? it seems to me he's trying to figure out based on the evidence after two days proceeding. >> emily: i think what bill is getting to included and that is the hubris. the hubris of a narcissist or the hubris of someone who
9:32 am
fancies himself larger-than-life able to get away with this attempted perfect but left so many bumbling amateur things in its wake that led the police to -- i don't want to say easily because that's a strong word but clearly 20/20 hindsight to be able to originally a 95 page affidavit leered out the myriad of trails that he left. it was more than breadcrumbs but technology with 12 times talking the young women and that was in the last year. and there were so many other pieces of evidence to bill's point, if he fancies himself smarter than the system, guess what you are not? >> harris: i'm really struggling with what you just said. i didn't know that about the six months. >> bill: end of june. >> harris: that is a long time. >> bill: he would challenge the evidence. >> harris: of course, he is and he will have time to make copious arguments on his own. i just wonder who benefits to have more time?
9:33 am
it certainly doesn't benefit the families. but how in the legal scope of things and you did the interview and i didn't see it but i wish i had. but how in the legal scope of things does that change the case or impact the case? or is that how it always rolls? people and judges rule in the system when they are available and you go from there? >> it is frankly not to have it drug on like this. this calendar does not surprise me. i'm not at all so surprised. the burden is on the state to prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt and all the defense has to do -- >> harris: do you put in a gag order? what happens in those six mo months? be two to be clear, if a judge issues a gag order it will be because they feel the media plays a larger part than it should appear at the jury pool might be tainted or things are being -- the judge ordered the defendant?
9:34 am
absolutely not! that would be the worst possible advice his attorneys could give him. >> harris: i'm saving legally. we are in a different day, a man in his 20s, i believe he still in his 20s, is that right? social media changes everything. we don't know. when you tell me a scope of time like six months, it is not the same like six months ten years ago in a case. and if he is grandiose, he is also famous or infamous right now. >> emily: he thinks he is for sure. and that is part of the trail he left was a lot of online presence that he fancied himself not only indestructible but free to be honest and put forth a lot of details, including after the murder details that were not yet public which somehow clearly is. >> gerri: six months seems like a long time to sort that out, right push mark you know who i feel sorry? the universe he was expressing but those in the community, there has got to be high
9:35 am
emotions among the family, neighbors and everybody involved. i'm from a tiny town in north carolina up in the mountains. and if you had a real murder with 4,000 spruce pine, north carolina, people would be apoplectic. you have to feel for the community. >> bill: so, this is all breaking news, by the way that is just coming out. the prosecutor did not object to this suggestion. >> gerri: to the waiting -- >> bill: is that how this works? >> gerri: give some more time to do their jobs. >> harris: and they need more time. >> bill: a 95 page affidavit with evidence against him and the dna was left in the bed behind. we are told, emily, that was enough information to arrest him. why can they not proceed based on that now? >> emily: the threshold for arrest is lower than conviction. and number two that question, a
9:36 am
community absolutely horrified and rocked to its core by the brutal murder who hadn't seen a merger or execution but also haven't seen a murder in that particular town for over ten years is the arrest and custody, the custodial nature is enough for the moment? you know what, as long as he is in jail right now, we will wait for a successful trial, successful conviction if it means a few months longer. the arrest is more important than a speedy trial with potential to not go through. remember, the protection is on the defendant and the criminal justice system. that defendant has a right to waive the speedy trial no matter how much we want to see a conviction peer that trumps. >> leslie: absolutely. this is horrific for these families. this is horrific for this community, friends, neighbors and people who saw it on television as well. but i do think to your point, i do think some people might say
9:37 am
it is a band-aid, but it is right now enough to stop temporarily the bleeding in the community from these murders because he is behind bars. remember you had a time where they didn't know who did it and on the large. people were concerned, what about my child? what about my home? not being able to sleep at night? it gives them some sense of security. and a speedy trial went out the window a long time ago but it can benefit the prosecution and what they want to is the right person to be behind bars forever. >> bill: just to be clear on this and i don't mean to keep going on but this is preliminary status conference under idaho state law, which is essentially a probable cause hearing. the bar for that is really low! the bar for that was probably found in the affidavit. i'm not arguing for conviction. i'm arguing if you believe you have the right person, why can you not proceed?

billions to promote environmental justice, and that they want to use $20 million to promote racial equity. pete buttigieg overprinting of the yeutter system by referring to air missions instead of airmen here at jesse watters team got footage from faa summit discussing how to get people to understand inclusion is just as important as air safety. >> it is interesting because safety is, you know, separate from the mission, but it is to any mission or any technical goal or any objective than diversity, equity, and inclusion in particular. so, how do we make them more the same? how do we show that important particularly with inclusion? >> emily: harris, theoretically i only speak for myself but if i'm on a plane might care more that it lands safely than the color of

someone's skin who was flying it. but that is just me. >> harris: in other words, if it is plaids, blues, greens, brown, you want the sleeper seao work. >> emily: exactly. >> harris: i don't know where they are going with this but distraction is never a good thing. they seem distracted. >> emily: the largest question at all though him or, what happens to the billions of our money that we gave this government that somehow went top ideological notions that don't lead towards a new system or new safety? right? >> harris: he was laughing when i was talking. [laughter] >> bill: i was just thinking, may repeat has had a bad couple of months here, right? i know southwest was not his problem, but it was a problem for a lot of people. >> harris: if he would have kept his mouth shut, he would have been fine. >> bill: the weather was bad and that had something to do with it, all's well so.
9:45 am
yesterday morning sent a shiver down a lot of people as to what was going on with air traffic control and the pilots. it's been a bad run for him and i don't know how he digs out a bit, but it's not good. >> harris: i don't feel bad for mayor heat. the formula crisis, and he didn't have anything to say about that? the supply chain crisis! >> emily: that is right. he has transportation secretary so under his watch, it includes supply chains, railroad union debacle under which he was in portugal. he filmed himself with a selfie in an airport, i believe, and portugal pretending he was in the united states. here he says this is a learning moment for us. he flew on a private jet to canada to accept an award for lgbqt rights while the american system is absolutely crumbling. i think it is clear from what his priorities are anything but

safety and the smooth facilitation of our actual transportation system. what say you, leslie? >> leslie: i wouldn't take all of that from a few photo ups or tweets. congressman nancy mace wants to pass legislation that the transportation secretary we have to fly on commercial flights i think is a waste of taxpayer time and money, which is not, which is not -- let us look at the system. i want to get the name right. it was an outage of notice to error mission system. here are the reasons they had to stop, have faith. people could have died. pilots have to be able to fly the plane too. democrats are questioning the money. where is the money going? because obviously, you have to put money into these systems so we have preventative mode and plan a, b, c. >> harris: what did they do? >> leslie: the money was created because of covid. >> gerri: that is not their money. that is our money.
9:47 am
everybody watching the show, it is their money. $54 billion, what are they doing with it? they should be fixing infrastructure and not what kind of words we are using and concerned about that. are we politically correct? i don't know. it is disturbing because it gets down to the dollars and cents. >> emily: playing commercial is petty. >> harris: actually, gerri has a good idea about that and i want to hear it. why is that a good idea, gerri? >> leslie: putting him on a commercial flight -- >> harris: let her answer. >> gerri: one way might help the transportation secretary far removed from the americans and the problems we face. he would get to find out what it's like to sit in on a keister for hours waiting to board or sitting on the tarmac while waiting to hear for jet to take off or losing your luggage. he would find that out first hand. he has clearly forgotten all
9:48 am
about it. >> emily: i don't know about that, leslie. did you get that shot of me on my bicycle? this guy has been a social media prop. >> bill: you have to explain that. he was going to the white house, and he drove between the office building at the white house. >> harris: which is one end of the studio to the other. [laughter] >> emily: he took the bicycle else, drove a half a block on film and ride your bike to work day and my commitment to going green and having everyone get on bicycles. >> bill: he got out at that location because that is where the cameras could see him. >> emily: exactly, exactly. to your point i would love the cameras delayed along with millions of others who didn't get to see their family members over christmas. didn't get to see their sons and daughters over hanukkah or luggage with the family heirloom pier there is so much. >> harris: after two plus

years of being locked down in a pandemic from each other, may be different communities were moving around, but we weren't moving around quite the way we have been appear at this really felt like our time. for some people, they have their time taken. it would be so great if you think news conferences and taking questions right now and say what is doing about the situation and playing commercial, leslie. [laughter] >> leslie: i don't have a problem flying private but i have to see if he was stuck at the airport and did see the footage of the outcome everybody said it was a planted photo all up. >> emily: you have to walk before you fly and flying at the oval office, i don't see him getting aaron anywhere close. coming up we have learned a lot of new information on classified documents and biden's and merrick garland press secretary on the schedule to secretary on the schedule to speak later today. more on that next.

>> it was not a locked garage. >> yes, as well as my corvette. as i said earlier this week, people know i take classified documents and classified materials seriously. i also said we are cooperating fully and completely with the justice department review. >> earlier this hour, pete doocy was with us and explained why the question came up. there have been so many pictures of the president and video we have gathered of him driving that beautiful black stingray, but as you can see, it was locked in the garage with the classified documents, the second batch now, at the wilmington, delaware home of the president. now questions about how secure that could even be. we have been teasing it all hour, we are expected to hear from both attorney general merrick garland very soon and the white house press secretary to give the briefing later today. mark meredith is at the white
9:55 am
house. my burning question would be how many times that garage door was open and the classified documents were unsecured. i think that's fair. >> harris, you are not the only one that has questions. the white house is clearly in damage control mode this afternoon as they are trying to piece together what is coming out of this latest revelation from the white house counsel office that additional documents from when then vice president biden had left office were discovered at his wilmington, delaware home, and ever since november the president's personal lawyers have been searching some of his residences to see where these other additional documents may be, because they had discovered documents at the penn biden center here in d.c. the white house is facing an enormous amount of questions about what did they learn and when and of course why the documents were being stored at a private home to begin with, and whether or not there should be any repercussions the president or staffers should face. the white house were saying documents likely shipped as part
9:56 am
of the transition out of office in early january of 2017. also an incredible amount of political repercussion that will come out of this. house republicans will take it to investigation. >> the house speaker says they are ready, willing and able, oversight chairman was on for focus, ready, willing and able. so, jerry willis, we have learned and are working the story to independently confirm, reports the fbi has been speaking with biden aides. don't know if it's past aides or current ones. >> so many questions, right. and nobody wants to answer anything on the record. it's just devoid of any information for the american people. this is critical to us, we need to know what happens with our private information, the private information, the security of the country. i've got to say, i want to hear something promised soon about
9:57 am
how we are going to get to the bottom of this. it's disturbing. >> florida congressman brian mast said the biggest issue he had, didn't know about the second batch, but the first, some markings were very high up, top secret type stuff and some of the documents were classified having to do with iran and ukraine and china. and it is interesting when you look historically what was going on. raymond pointed out that ukraine was having a leader at the time overturned. >> and china probably, you know, the most important possible combatant, certainly a country we are competing with every single day, certainly in the private business arena, also in other ways, it's essential that we keep information from them but you know, here is what you see. these documents are everywhere, they are being shared with everyone, apparently, and the office that biden was going to
9:58 am
every day was in part sponsored, given money to -- >> got a lot of money. almost a million dollars for the use of his name in a few speeches. >> that center in washington, d.c. how many weekends did he spend in wilmington? >> over 37%. >> mark meredith may know. it was a lot. >> it was a lot. >> was the garage locked or not. a lot of comparison to biden and trump, mar-a-lago, and wilmington, delaware. >> they were very different, they did not raid biden's house. >> there are wedding receptions at mar-a-lago and somebody could stray off. >> why are we waiting for his attorneys and his staff, bill, why are we waiting for bhied -- investigators have not been dispatched. >> if it is true multiple aides are interviewed by the fbi, you raised the point, harris, when
9:59 am
did they work for biden and how many years did they go back. how do we game it out and see whether or not they did it well. but we are left with a ton of questions that merrick garland may clarify for us. >> i have to make sure viewers understand this. national security policy guidelines, the only distinction that national policy -- security policy guidelines cares about is insecure, unsecure or secure locations. that is the only thing that the policies care about. not a locked garage, not who had the key, it's whether it's a secure location or it's not. and at the bottom -- the end of the day, the amount, the agregiousness of how national security is threatened in this situation, that's where the questions fall under. >> the can of worms that biden opened when he was ripping on the locked car and the documents, trump was told to put extra locks on doors as they
10:00 am
went forth with the investigation. he's not talking about that, he's saying it was secure because it was with the locked car. the door goes up, that's how you get the door out. >> the lock is broken no matter what. >> anyway -- always great to see everybody, sherry, leslie, bill, thank you for being here. em, it's been good. "america reports" now. >> john: harris, thank. the news rolls on, fox news alert, two big events out of washington, d.c. as the biden administration scrambles to address growing controversy over classified documents now being discovered at two locations tied to the president. hello, john roberts in washington. a big friday eve today, sandra. >> sandra: jam packed two hours coming um. great to be with you, john. this is "america reports." attorney general merrick garland is set to make that statement. it should be happening any moment now as calls grow for him to appoint a special counsel
