he's on the morning show. that's the last step. but he does have a future., ba weddings, bar mitzvahs, bachelorette party is like you might want to hire that guy. out >> we'll see wha ot happens00 pm and we'll keep you posted. >> of course, we're out of time. thanks for joining us . eight p.m. every weeknight, the show is the sworn enemy of lying, capacity, smugness and groupthink. smug nat the best we can with te ones you love. nnity >>on welcome to this special ni' edition of "hannity" on a friday night. i'm pete hegseth, in tonight for sean. >> and tonight, americanace ha airspace has been breached oncea again for the second time inn ud as many weeks. >> in two weeks, a forneignto unauthorized foreign object flew into the united states . ws >> the we're told unmanned aircraft was described as a gray cylindrical vessel likeougy

like a coke can cylindricale of roughly the size of a small car floating over alaska. t thisbut this time, biden didno wait for the object to make a cross-country trip beforen yo shooting it down. >> watch really briefly, can you speak to rumors that there is another chinese balloon above alaska or any other parts of u.s. territory that the u.s. shot down? can confirm that thea so i can confirm thattracki the department of defense was tracking a high altitude objects over alaska airspace in the last twenty four hours. out. the the object was flying at an altitude of forty thousand feet and posed a reasonable threat to the safety of civilian flight. out of an abundance of caution and at the recommendation of the pentagonth, president biden ordered the military to down the object, and they did. >> so the reporter knew something. >> john kirby didn't lead with that in his briefing. that was a question afteuestiond the fact. so did last week's chinese spy y

balloon not pose a reasonable threat? it was the size of three school buses and potentially carriedl e an explosive payloads. we're learning more . multiple i mean, balloon was also equipped with multiple antennasd capable of sophisticated surveillance, potentiallillancyi listening to phone calls. >> and it was purposely flowns into the interior of the unitede states over sensitive nuclearse sites by members of the chinese communist party. y. joe biden was being tested bc joe biden was being tested by china and he utterly failedya . >> nowns a, justre how many our more chinese spy balloons ared c headed our way or others unexplained aircraft joining us now with more, former secretary of defense markd esper. >> mr. w secretary, thank you fi being here. based on what we know rightch t now, the descriptions from the pentagon, the way in whichfs they rolled it out, what do you make of this second aircraftmin? and the response of the biden administration? >> it's really interestingnd inu

that, first of all, we'd have 1 a second intrusion withinwhat i the last 10 days, two weeksintee nextst. what is interesting is the factd that it came from the north, from the arctic ocean, as compared to the chinese spy balloon, which came up fromt thh the southwest, the aleutian islands. so this is gives me some pause as well. and then third, as you pointedrn out, when you in your introduction, they're muchs ,much smaller thanon the original spy balloon. so i don't think we really knowr expe it may well be another countryry scientific experiment ord now. a weather balloon. who knows? we have military on the ground now, i suppose securing debris, it the site, recovering debris, w o will take them a few days to gather all that, to get ithe back to location where the forensics can forensics canu go through it and we could find out what really happenedy happeo to your second question, look,wn it was a smart call to shoot this thing down.e have t now we have to defend our airspace. we have to defend objec our sovereignty. and that means knocking objectss out of the sky. beforbefore they traverse the e

states . >> we do. but the first one was large and allowed to loom. thisowed one was small.d ha and we don't even know if it was china. it could have been russia.t knot alaska, much closer. >> russia, we don't know.d but it was smallhat and immediately interdicted. is that a dynamic of the criticism they receive? is that really about the altitude? they're saying foris forty thousand is commercial aircraft versus sixty thousand? i mean, how much this is driven by the exposure of the last 10 days and how much of this is driven by protocol, say, of the pentagon? >> and ia lo assume a lot oftige the protocols at the pentagon have been tightened up. they detecteeyd the object much sooner, reported much more quickly, and teed up a decision for the president. t some good to glad to see it. the pentagon is improving itscee its procedures, if you will ,s, its protocols. y in but i think with regard to theek response, it's clearly informed by what happened last week, the blowback that president biden received, both bipartisan right. republicans, l and republicans who said that t week'sthe last acceptable spyn

should have been shot downdown. before it entereoverd count the continental united states over alaska and not once itry thiny. . th i think that is largely to explain the fact that was forty thousand feet versus sixty five thousand is important, but i don't think that's the main driver it's im,i secretary.on and a bigger on a higherlass lei ,the professional class ine deci washington, the pentagon bureaucracy, the the decisiondon makers, what is the real sensei? of our looming showdownrsary, with china when they talk abouti a competition or an adversary? n is that really do they reallyd think we can partner with themoi for good in the world? >> or do they realize whathink the communist chinese are up to here? well, i think at the political w level, with the with the the are current administration, there is a view that there are places where we compete with them place and they're placesy where they want to cooperate with them. climate change is often cited as a place where they believe competition between beijing and washington is possible.g anb i don't believe that to be chine the case. i mean, the chinese are producin areg our building a col fired power plants every 10 ,

10 days to two weeks, a little interest in them ireducing co2 into the air. al but we are clearly in a global contest now for who's goingwilli to who's going to continue to dominate in the years ahead will be the democracies of the west or the autocracies represented by russia. creases byand china. not and look, we do not want to live in a regime in a world e order dominated by the chinese communist communist party, where our freedoms are curtailed, where there's no liberties, where there's n o democracy. that a totalitarian state. that's what we're up against today. and that's what we alls neewitd to come to grips with . a ndand prepare and compete and take on the chinese. >> yeah, just really makesallowg us look unserious when we're allowing them to reverseo our country. and then we go to them with new climate change proposals and they laugh at us and build coal powered coal fired power plants. it doesn't seem serious. secretary espera, thank you for

your time. we appreciate it. are joining us now with more california congressman darrell issa, along with thed ga author of the great us china tech war, senior fellow atm the gate stone institute, gordon chang. gentlemen, thank for beinggrea here. gordon, your book is the great us china tech war. where does this type of let'sdo assume just for purposes wkne don't know tonight, thatinese. l whatever that device was, was necessarily chinese, let's assume that it was or at least they would have follow ons. what does it tell you about the tech war or the looming conflict with china? >> well, we know that the chinese are hoovering up data around the world and they get it from spy balloons. they get it from tiktok.rces they get from so many different sources and artificial things tintelligence. there's two things to it. how there's the technology, but there's alsoyou pu how much date put into it, because the more b data you put inteto it, the better these systems work. soe clearly, the chinese are very good at taking our datag th and data around the world r aiand making their a.i. very, congressman, do we not look

like fools at worst? asleep at the wheel at bestd wih right now with the way we engage with the first device? ma and that was the second device wof a reactor. i mean, what are we to readakinr and take from the decision making, this administration? >> how does beijing view it?jini well, beijing probablyon't is noticing that we don't makese the same mistake twice. and to that extent, i'll't give the president recognition i ques same mistake twice. but there's no questio, twn two weeks ago he was tested. he failed the test.n tested he appears to have been testedln again. but, you know, one oo dif the challenges is there is really no difference inbus an the decision betweend a bus and a car that's flying overr cy because your your country becauseom a suitcase can hold a nuclear weapon. so froem a size standpoint, both of these had the potential lethality that should have beenk taken seriously. and i'm glad it waens this time. but we've got a lot more to do.

our southern border is open now. be open for our northern border appears to be open for aircrafrcraftt. t >> gordon, are we at more threat today than we've everwe'v been from china basedl on their calculation of this administration? >> i actually think so, becauset deterrence is broken down. and we've known for the lasty cs two and a half years or so thate the primary chinese narrative about the u.s.n te is that we'rn terminal decline, we're finished as a powe therstar and countries around the world should ditch relations with america and start obeyingus china. and one of the mos pt difficult histor and most dangerous periods inrre history in general is when you a have to reestablish deterrence . and that's exactly what the biden administration has to do. you know, this balloon, the , the chinese one , showed the utter disrespectth of that s biden administration and the united states by china ver and n shows a very dangerous mentality in beijing because that's going to drivhee to dod . things that could lead us to a world war. remember, we got war ine wa

ukraine. we could have war on the otherr side of the eurasian landmass ln pretty soon start blowing up pipelines and of our of our allies and others. and a one miscalculation cal. e you're on the wrong side,declin congressman. >> power. >> arel th they righey at? was >> they are right in the senseon that our power was was unchallenged for more than a decade, sort of the legacy of ronald reagan. and it is now being challenged.o and so far we'vefa failed a few tests. certainly, afghanistan is a good example. ukrain, istan.e back in 2014 ber example when we didn't respond ,as promised to the aggression.s of russia and its continued. t it's reversible.n we certainly have the capability, but we've got to begin using the tools we have mos reat countries, if rond reagan were alive and in the white house right now, one hundred or two hundred spies posing as stateth departmente people for

the chinese state department would be packing their bagsn us throughout the united states and being sent home. there are tool ns that we can ue in addition to not sending the secretary of state, the presidenusre it has to begin using those tools. >> if there's going to be confidence among our allies. >> gordon, we're talking about a spy balloon, but the reality is the most popular app inr ap america right now is tic-tace ag and kids between the ages of four and 18 use it on average 100 minutes a day. the communist chinese pump, you know, perverse and radical propaganda, taught our kids that they don't even allow their own kids to look at in china. are we china. are we being sere about what we're staring down here? >> dow no, we're not. is 86 mils and , you know, that's eighty six million spy balloons. in the united states as they say. that' you know, they take information from those and that's illegal. surreptitious taking of information from all of these phones. into their ai and that, of course, goes into their systems. but it's also, as you say, pum chinpsa pumps. it's through the algorithm that contt on tick-tock.

china is able to send a lot of information, russian narratives, about the war int th ukraine. e waglorifying drug use.nese the chinese actually usedubvert to talk to to subvert the united states through encouraging and fomenting violence. they did that in 2020. so really what we have is a number of different appsg viol and it's not just tiktok, it's also wechat. and president trump banned ident and president biden reversed the ban. >> and , you know, it's even it'seo even worse than that. if you go to apple and you lookw at the top three apps, number. three is tiktok. the firsout two are also chines. >> if you go to mcdonald's to make a purchase, you are actually using chinese source code as part of the paying for it. so the the depth of it, tick-tock, is just the canary in the coal mine. c weom havpanye a lot of other prs

that need to be dealt with and dealt with on a broad basis. >> i fear the next generation a may look back at us and say,, wt what fools? what fools they were. how did how did they not seeor it? congressman issa, gordon chang, you're not fools. b you're talking about it.os thank you for being here tonight. we appreciate it.e riy concerne tonight, most americans areover rightly concerned about china's tilenow overt, open, hostiles to behavior, but not joe biden. coun high flying cross-country incursiobin, it was no big deal. >> watch this. listen to the major security breach for the united thastates just the fact thatalv the balloon came intoth the airspace, flew over the country for so many days. >> now, look, the total amount o of intelligence gathering is going on where every country around the world is overwhelming. and the idea thaloont the ballon could traverse american s airspace is anyway, this is not

a major breach , is it? >> anyway, it's not a major breach . wow. the administrationministraorriec worried, more worried about gas stoves than the chinese spy balloon or ticktock surveilling nuclear sites in montana. oddly enough, the group lobbying for a gas stove ban, the rocky mountain institute has, you guessed it, deep ties to china and even met privately with biden's energy secretary, jennifer granholm. here now with reaction, former white house chief of staff reince priebus and fox news contributor jason chaffetz. >>r granholm. writes, as the cp staff, you would prepare a president for an interview tha like that. you would expectth a question ta like that. kno can't know he makes up at? i mean, we can't know exactly, but to dismiss it is not a major brief breach .d have >> seems like something>> they would have discussed. , yeh yeah. i mean, and your answerit's be pretty simple. yeah, it's a major breach .-2 that's why we sent an f

twenty two , shot it out of. th the sky when we went over the water. i mean that's a pretty easy answer. eas even if we can debate when it should have been shot down. look, the one speaking you asked me about chief of staff.nk i think about one of the great lessons that i think i learned when in the white house was when we had dinner u with president xi. many os anf us , the presidentot and i sat right across fromt le president xi and one of the greatest lessons i learned that i tell a lot ofs peoplet about is that when president xid was asked by presidenten trump about taiwan, about japan, the indo pacific region, no exaggeration on taiwan, president xi spoke withoutthes. stopping for over 30 minutes.t a and when he was asked about japan, he spoke without o stopping for over 30 minutes. hundreds of years of history that he was recounting. here's to take away. pat

they are going to be very patient. this silk and road campaignig where they're spendingn, a trillion a trill across the wd giving away 5g equipment, buying ports, building roads, they want to be the world's the only superpower in the entire world. and this is real . >> and all of the things you just talked about are extremely important. here's one positive thing so far in this conversation. tion. atat varying degrees, andi get it. and we argue those varying degrees. i will say the one thing that brings of all the issues, th between republicans and democrats, the one thing that we seem to be unified on ,f at least iron part, is the thret from china. and if you'rere e a business oun there and you're on wall street, you know that there is coming a day very quickly. ci we'rnae doing businesstryi

with china, investinngg in chins trying to save money by sendings your plans to china is goingnt to be come an anti-americany is going to be a big problem for you in this country. ging u and i think that's the one positive thing that's bringing d us together. and that's the issue of china, taiwan and the the indo-pacifics >> you know, let's hope. let's hope that is . i mean, there is such a foreignm policy consensus in d.c. that maybe there was a mutual risecil cast be mutually beneficial and that should be cast away at this point. jason , you understand how d.c. works, though.ntio we mentionedne jennifer granholm meeting with with thisra institute, which is pushing for the banning of gas stoveshow do and has ties to the communist t check. >> how do yoheu how do you cuth through the web of chinese b influence in washington? which seems to be bipartisan, even? i thin well, look, i agree with what rice was was saying.i think bust i think america gets that.i i think business gets it.ts i don't think joe biden gets itd

. and i worr hy that, hi he's compromised. i mean, his family has taken tens of millions of dollars personally out of china and youo need to follow that story. i think the overall lesson is you've got to follow the mone advantay. look, china take advantage. they started covid and there has been no challenge, no pushback from from president biden on that in irs ,the origin of the vendel comes from china. it's a synthetic drug and theyt thousa and it's killed more than one hundred thousand people. >> and you and you see joe bidet a darn thing about it., no, he just had the state of the union said we're going and to keep the borders open and porous as you want i porusth and then you have o the department of energy givinge a four million plus dollar contract to the rocky mountain institute, who has an office iny china. and they are therein lobbying and wanted to go all electric and get rid of stoves. ry now they put regulations in place. you have the energy secretary n saying, oh, no, that's ridiculous. p

but if you follow the money, iur you look at the puppeteer's, , u the ones that are behind the scenes pulling the strings, pete, guess what? those puppeteers, they're calling the shots. that's why we're havinpuppeteerr a discussion. and millions of americans aree a looking and saying, wait, thatnl gas stove that's supposed to be so clean and fuel efficient. yeah. you're telling me you're going d to make me get rid of that in e favor of electricity? >> my goodness. uide in given to the because there was guidance giving to the chinese office of the rocky mountain institutereit writes. >> what's it going to take? what's the moment that thatjo shift happens where people realize you, as joe biden, say it's not a joke. >> man like this is for keeps? well, i think you're seeing. >> but i'll tell you, i do think that the balloon, although we've been talking naue about this ad nauseum, i dos the ty think that it's the type ofk no thing that americans look at and they say, yo u heck know, s are they going to send a balloon over a country? i mean, some of the funniest i mean, tiktok, tick , tiktok. c and instagram is those guys ineg

south carolina scream. i mean, there is a lot and i mean pro-american shoot downmean the ccp. i mean, americans are waking up. and if you think aboutt is amere first, people ask all the time,u what is america first? these are 80% issues.alvanize at that really galvanize america. st and what is one? stop endless wars and bring the troops home. number two, secure the bordeomeh protect the american worker. but the laste one iker.s confrl china, who's ripping off the world. that was a big part. 2016.s an and i think it worked and itinug woke up american ts. x year and now we're continuing to talk about this thing. six years later. yeah, my favorite meme was that the bloom was really just a valentine's card from fang fang to swalwell. i think we all sawa vale thanttd >> jason , real quick, last word. what? we're already at war with china in space . there's a reason c president trump created this space force. sp us . and they they know we wereand if dominant in space .

and if you could see are the classified intelligence about what's going on in space , the chinese are goingre after us . it's not about just one balloon that's up there, folks. that's terribly naive and it dit is disingenuous for thisit's n president to go out there and say, oh, it's no big deal .' they are at us every single day. it's happening right now. to great point. if they can take out satellite networks, communications networks, networks, we're in the dark before the fight even starts, writes jason .. bide >> thank you both.s border appreciate you. all right. coming up, biden's boardercrosss is , of course, another one continues to spiral out of control. according to sources, there's ci an 800 percent increase in chinese nationals coming across illegally. >> sarah carter, brandon, weigh in next. if your business kept if your business kept on employees to the pandemic, get refunds. f it if it may r qualify for a payroll tax refund of uptf to twenty six thousand dollars per employee. per employee. even the received pgp.paid.

so we're we're still breakingle2 records.0 mi we were learning we just didnutt a whole 20 minutesn on the communist chinese and what they're doing.ge the southern border, what do increase at the southern sdo border.o wh >> but what do wate know w about that? so what we know is that over mont the last three months, chinese nationals have come acrosse acrs the u.s. southern border. and that's a real large increase. i mean, i've covering the border now for about 18 years. and i remember i would alwayst h hear aboutiness or chinese natir i would run into chinese nationals. but those numbermbers we prettss pretty small right now. we're seeing thi hs enormouss nr increase. s i mean, ifomew you look at last year's numbers, it was somewhere around two hundredplus plus that crossed in those seein same three months. so that's why you're seeing this 800g this percent. but i want to talk about that border. and we have been talking aboutr chinadversa and our adversariese china are taking advantage of our southern border. , we've seen that with the movement of fentanyl, the shipment of precursoprecurro chemicals into mexico so that the cartels can use those can precursors to make fentanyl

and fentanyl tablets and counterfeit, you know,e kill counterfeit pills that are on our streets that are killinge our younnsg, that are killinget our citizens. i've always said this is an asymmetricalwarfar warfare of ca and now we see our airspace being invaded. thisded. thi a is a very danger. i have to agree with gordon chang, congressman issa, others that i'm talking to ., un and we havdee never gottenthat control of this border. and under biden, it has been so bad that i know our u.s. intelligence as well as our dea and fbi are constantly monitoring that because thisondn is an issue that i think goes far beyond just people crossing. it's a nationae crossingl secur, as well. wha but in your experience, what i does it mean? what does itt tell you when you see such a substantial increase from one country alone?se from n crossing, we as as an agent? what scares me the most is where they're crossing what we normally se onee as we see venezuelans crossing at one specific point. in other words, they're workinrs with one cartel. we see haitians, we see cubans

cross at one specific point. what we're seeing, what the chinese are crossing everywhere. they're crossing souts t the entire southwest border from san diego to tucson. all the way to the rio grande ae valley. they're not just concentrating in they're working with all of the cartels. that means that chinaf is involvethd with every singleu one of the cartels. and that is a veryd st, very scs issue for the united states . ud and that's one of the reasons why it is so important that weec get the border under control, rit that we can safeguard the american people. dminis and right notrw we're just not t doing it. hey, sir, i bet thisutnt mon administration is going to tryyf to tout these recent monthly numbers, which are slightly down from the previous, but still, as i said, weigh up as some sort of success. that,a you explain disavow them of that. well, what's the reality, thesei numbers? >> well, the reality of thestiee numbers is that when you will .. go ahead, sarah , real quick.>>y yeah, they're extraordinarily high.d they're extraordinarily high. di and we've seen dips before ind winter where things fall downn n and then pick up again in

the spring. gcontin to continue to increasue t, weee the word is out. n we've seen that across and the northern border and the southern soun border. so i'm not expecting the cartels to back down. tog it to move evenby faster.ing ove evenby and i expect to see anmuch incrh last year, if not higher. >> brandon, you see the numberst of known terrorists, right, that are on the watc apph list t are apprehended. and those are just the ones we know about which arey high admi anything under the trump administration. >> one year in the trump administration, there were zerps . >> t and nowhe and then you see the number of as you pointed out across the border, chinese e nationals. what are their intentions? thawho are the ones that can p. a lot and make sure they're not captured? what would go to bed at nightin or agents or how do you how do you not have eminent fear that at some point this is going to come to roost? tobecause bad people are going to come here with bad intentions? >>h well, it's a very scaryh of situation. >> what we're dealing with right now decem. in the month of december, weul apprehended seventeen people that were on the terrorist

watch list. ehend 10 people that if we have a full year where we apprehend ten people, that's a lot. yet we had one month where wed apprehended seventeen. hat and when you look at the gode to ways, when you when you consider that one point two million people have been able to enter our country illegally and have been able to evade apprehension, that becomes evene more scary. these people spreaoppread oud oo throughout the entire united states. we don't know what a their intentions are. we don't knore c d w where they're coming from.'re we don't know if they're cou bringing in fentanyl. this is alldl happening and it n could stop tomorrow. wit but the political will justan doesn't exist with this administration. they really do not care abouwhet the american people. when you look back at the policies president trump created, will we always say you don't want to recreate the will? but he had to create the will pc and he gave us the policies that were necessary to secure the border. and then biden stole thosei have policies from us . and now we have the most insecure border that i have andd seen in my twenty five yeaonry career. >> and donald trump said b they're not sending their best a to either. >> and that certainls welly to a true as well. s sarah brandon, thank you so

know from the twitter file. but you said that you don't have any specific or unique knowledge of twitter, but you spoke as if you did you were s asked very specific questions te about twitter's the way twitterr functions and the decision making that they that they make. but yet you don't haveg th anyey unique or special knowledge jus about twitter and have never worked for them. and so this is onlnion wouy just your opinion, would you say, as a twitter account user? o in analysis based on facts are in m the public domain. and i was really referring to what i was asked about reclaiming my time. legal analysis is another word for opinion. oh, boy. fox news contributor turle jonathan turley joins us nowtimt with his response, reliving it in real time with us. doi professor, she wasn't even a key. she wasn't accusing you evenr hf not doing your homework. she's sabil because you didn't o work for twitter. e noor you're not a tech execut. you're not qualified. did you see that kind of line of questioning or common? e de what was very clear from

the hearing that none ofing. the democrats wanted to talk about the subject of the hearintainly tg certainly sh my testimony, which is this censorship programat fbi that ti appears to have supported, helped direct. this may be the largests co censorship system in the history of this country.f tt and we have proof thathe unite the united states government sent lists of names of citizenss and postings that they wanted to be censored. and soorhe d the democrats did l want to talk about that. so they attacked the witnesses. offi was not the only one .rren i got off light.d on you know, the three members arei two current members and one former member before me, claire mccaskill on msnbc accused those members of beingzn russian sympathizers and one being a putin lover. >> right. 2.0 and it's red scare sort of 2.0. it's trying to get people not to look over here by saying, yo there's a russian over there. ys

>> and , you know, with with with my questioning, it waswhatd just sort of otherworldly. the question to me was, whattwi these twitter files say abouwht censorship by surrogate, which is what i was testifying on andw what i talked about.itte the case law. has those are twitter files. the the twitter files has twitter has confirmed the authenticity of those files. efore,the day before. former twitter officials confirm any of these factsan. and the members simply asked, what is this say about, yo censorship? u ner woand the response here w well, you've never worked fory twitter. it's likone wouldn't testify in the pentagon papers unless i worked at the pentagon. it. >> you're right. you're right. they never should have published it because they didn't work at the pentagon to begi i n with .e an so it is it is reallyf an fascinating. was there any part of any democrat that, you know,u the party of the aclu, whicht ci was supposed to be about civil e liberties and free speech? i mean, i've long since jumped t the shark on that.hand a but any democrats earnestly interested indn whether or not? this kind of hand in glove

relationship existedly, that's the only that's a really the sad takeaway from the hearing. for us these are very serious allegations for us all. yeahll, the the united states government is not allowed to engage in censorship, but wee have at least 80 different employees that may have been ce, participating and identifying citizens to be censore bd to be suspended, to be banned. it got so intense that twitter i employees complained about it and said thaart they are pushin, and probing everywhere. that's a quote. so we should be concerned about our government and the businesso of silencing citizens. pee but there was not even peep oflo objection coming from the democrats. wa tell you, i was surprised.u, i was you know, the poll ames show tha the american people want to investigate whetherte f the t fbi is engaged ino they political activities, but also they want to investigate censorship. but suddenly the democratiocratc

party has become this anti freeo speech party.crat and i come family from a longw what h democratic family in chicago. i don't know what happened d to my party. believe i mean, it used to be that the democrats believed in free speech is the very touchstone of what the party meant. now, all you hear fromship. democratic leaders is calls for censorship and supporting itthe fbi and working with thehi largest censorship system in the history. of this country. >> yeah, they become statists professing, trying to stop misinformation and disinformation. n andonly if it's not exactly wt they want you to say. if anyone is credible,u to to tk about this and give a legaluch. opinion to you.ay's h >> jonathan turley, thank you wa all right. steps yesterday's hearing was just the latest steps taken by the now the new republican led house to hold the fbi and doj accountable for their countless failures and overreachesilures e here to discuss, fox news legal analyst greg charite and former florida attorney general pam bondi. >> thank you both for beingan

here.d greg, you heard what jonathan turley had to say. when one side of the aisleo is so overwhelming in reflexively defending the weaponization, what changesp can you hope for? >> well, i think the only remedy here is to expose a malign behavior of government agencies like the fbi clearlyga engaged.joha >> jonathan turley calls in turt censorship by surrogate. i call it censorship by proxy. it's pretty much the same thing. >> you know, h the united states supreme court has repeatedly and consistently said thaovernment agencyt a govy like the fbi cannot direct or encourage private citizens or o private entities, a companye like twitter to to do that.t >> and that the first amendment prohibits the government from doing. >> that's a violatio n of the constitution. >> theree are a couple of remedies.s

news and information could file a massive class action lawsuit that their constitutional e rights were infringed upon. >> but it's also a crime. set it's a crime under federal law for an individual or set of individuals at the fbi to conspire with othersonal to deprive people of having said their constitutional rights.f >> now, having said that, merrick garland is not the kind of guy who cares about enforcing the law.o >> he's not goining goingo, to indict his own fbi agency. er so exposure of malign behavioria is the only thing republicans can do. >>do. it's pretty scary, pam, wt amendment ha the first amendment has becomeue what appears to be a partisan issue, that there'.s one side oh saying, let's have it in the other side, saying you can have it if we tell you you can have it. t is right?at's right. it's first amendment when they say it is .re and that's the problem. and that's why these ver hearint are so verhey, very vital.

yo tu know, whether it's americo parents being targetedwn by ouri own government or senators grassley and johnson beingking u targeted by the fbi, making upem false information about them, t that's what we're hearing.we but i think one of the most goo important things is that we are losing the good men and women of the fbi because of these horrible fbi agents at the top.t and the department of justice. we heard agent nicole parkere pa testify. i worked hand in hand with her on the parkland shootings. she is one of the best,t brightest, most compassionatcoea agents i've ever worked with .cl shdre notified 17 families that. their children had been murdered. and the fbi, they've lost her. she resigned because of the weaponization of the fbi. jm and that's going to keep happening in our country.dan and matt gates and the rest of thatn until jim jordan and matt gatesi and the rest of that committeeta continue on with the great work they're doing. accoun and not only hold the fbi table accountable, but the entie

department of justice, because this has got to stop. you know, it almost feels likeae they want it that way. milit and i see it through the lens, as is soldier of the military ak to or certain types of people ou who are willing to askhe questions or buck the system. cn they're happy to push them out so that the group can continue in the power, can consolidate, and it probably will takeout. g new administration to clean house even if they could.ou greg and pam, thank you so much . >> appreciate you.bide up next, biden's latesn'tr blunv blunders have americans questioning whether, well, we're always questioning whether he can questio handle tb and if he's even capable of running in twenty , twenty four . if he cares or if he knows it. 2020 three . congressman randy jackson, john james, react next. >> beware the temptation to ignore the facts of history and the aggressive impulses of an evil empire. and thereby remove yourself from the struggle between right and wrong and good and evil. president reagan led the free world against the soviet empire and won. but when vladimir putin invaded

ukraine with support from north korea, iran and china, he shows the battle against evil isn't over america. always stands against evil. so we stand with ukraine. 11 and a half years ago, i needed assistance. i don't know if i would ever play golf again. you can't rehab was quite a journey. i thought maybe this is the best it's going to be until i took balance of nature. i am convinced this is what got me over the hurdle. my swing playing was better than it was before my accident. i will take balance of nature for the rest of my life.ny here true to balance o cf nature .com. to balance o cf nature .com. >> and don't forget to use discount code. discount code. fox news ton repair .com helping people see the true cost of bad credit. what are you doing to improve rp your credit? should i be doinairing yourg sor absolutely. unless you like paying thousands extra and high interest rates. interest rates. did you know repairing your credit could save better.

wrong with him. everyone in the country knows it right now. nowthe unfortunate part is our ball to this issue with the balloon. it was you know, it was just testing to see, you know, how he would react, how long they would have before he woulde do anything the leas. wet bitvey decisive. and we saw the answer to that.ct it was verhiy unimpressive. it was very scary. and i think things are going to continue to get worse. and sot know i want to know hs physical exams that they said tt we're going to have by the endy6 of the month. we did. and now they're saying they'ret going to have it by the 16th ofo february. will it include a cognitivgnitie exam like president trump said it better. we need one . if any presidents ever bf -- ned a cognitive exam, it's this man. but we'll say they've already they've already let us knowd that they're going to release it publicly in the sam te manner as which they did last year,t cc which means they're tellinga b. us up front, they're just checking a box. e: there is no way or checking . there's no a way there'secking . a cognitive exam in there. at least one he took. militar congressman james , you'ren a military guy. you know, when you look at the guy on the screen right now, you're looking at the commandeoking at r in chief and we're looking at a dangerous world. >> you know, how how do we how

we how does someone watching this program right now feel reassured at their house thar t all is well and someone's awaked at the wheel? >>on you don't. the three of us have all served' our nation in uniform. we understand what inspired leadershipe us looks like. and joe biden doesn't inspire us .uc i mean, frankly,k, who this is t who passed the buck, who points the blame. he's been int of office for the better part of 50 years. he was elected in nineteen seventy three thirty six years in the senate, eight years as vice president , tw 2o years as president. and on his watch, our debt has ballooned past capacity. we just shot down to ufos in the past week and we're calling boys, girls s and girls, boys,r our enemies, our adversaries around the world are furthere emboldened. >> china is is set saber rattling and in russia is invading europe. s inthey know that this presides a joke and we need to do f everything we can to focus on things that americans areg pc concerned about, lowering priceses, brea, bringing back j,
