[crowd noise] >> sean: they just said i love you, laura, they never said i love you, sean, what's up with that? >> laura: edits at very smart audience. it's a very smart audience. you always get the smartest people. is great to see all of you. we will see you back here tomorrow night. this is "the ingraham angle", m fever has broken. i am back, not a moment to soon.

so much happening. very thank you for joining us very amateur hour is the focus of knight's ankle. in small community, there fred showed up in full gear, they even brought an armored vehicle to take into custody alone scrawny 21 -year-old air force national guardsmen? >> today the justice department investigate into alleged unauthorized removal, retention and transmission of classified national defense information. he is an employee of the united states air force national guard. we will share more information at the appropriate time. >> actually, the appropriate time is now, so the angle will share more information and provide some much-needed context . let's understand what the biden administration is trying to do here. it is somehow trying to turn on

of the worst intelligence breaches in the past two decade into a political win for themselves. let's debunk this and explain it . today they hope to win competency points by the fact that they moved so quickly to arrest big deal, the documents had been online for months on the platform called discord and plus it looks like the new york times somehow managed to make contact with the alleged leaker before our own government. >> photographed among photographed in a different location on a using the gaming profile to find connection with other popular social media websites which of course have family photographs online including that countertop. >> well, even the democrat ranking umber of the house inte

committee wasn't buying it pick the new york times beat the fbi at 21 -year-old kid, air national guardsmen trying to impress his friends come out clearly there is an awful lot o congressional oversight that we need to do to fixing the system that are regularly allowing our secrets to get out. how was he able to print them out, how was he able to remove them from a secure facility? >> the facts here are so bad fo the biden intel community that even cnn can't hide his disgust. >> this classified information was on discourse from month, ho many tens of billions of dollar to the u.s. intelligence committee get from the u.s. taxpayer, but it seems like there was a lots of people dropping the ball here. >> it's not a proud moment for the intelligence community. >> that's an understatement to think of the debacle of the pas few months.

like the chinese loon that floated over sensitive sites that this administration says this was not a big deal. >> the president doesn't. >> it was ten days ago the angl headspace affected all along that the intel intelligence tha china collected was mostly from electronic signals which could be picked up from weapon system or include communications from personnel. oh, that's all, no big deal. don't forget the administration wanted everyone to think they were wise they were so pragmati and prudent to blow the balloon over the atlantic. >> we wanted to wait until it was overwater so that we could mitigate any potential civilian harm or property damage. to keep my goodness, how the chinese much be pinching themselves right now and now this? >> the damage to the united

states are finding that it's no that hard to get this information and put our nationa security officials. it's embarrassing and bad. >> the biden people know they are in trouble here, so look fo them to focus may be on the biography of the leaker. he likes guns, he's anti- big government. >> he is a young charismatic ma who love nature, god, who loved shooting guns and racing cars. >> at young mcdonough enthusiast is what he is described. >> a young charismatic gun enthusiast, he was very suspicious of government overreach. >> laura: this is perfect for the biden administration, because just when there january 6 narrative, there is to brand conservatism as not just as toxic, but as traders.

once again, just as the faux insurrection, the white house and the fbi, are just trying to score political points and distract us from reality. obviously to the extent that broke the law, he should be punished come out completely. but the significant breach pulled the curtain back on the amateur hour that is the biden' foreign policy into what round with that his national security apparatus. member with the leaked from the rosy analysis we got just a few months ago. and what did we learn about china's role? again, not what we were told by the white house or the pentagon. >> we haven't seen any confirmation or indication that the chinese have provided letha weapons, lethal capabilities to the russian ministry of defense throughout this conflict. >> did he know was that false

when he said it? >> the truth is, we are not hearing the truth. may be the 21 -year-old view of the intel community isn't far off? the american public has every right to know the truth about what they are getting for there to hundred billion dollars and counting commitment to the ukraine. is the prognosis for victory is grim, we should all know what. if china is backpedaling crucia information to ukraine, we should know that. this is information that americans need to vote on in 2024. like that despite millions in aid to egypt over the years, they were planning to secretly arm rush out with rockets, like the information that while bide is placating china, they have deployed a new missile that is probably able to evade u.s. defenses. perhaps me even more important

than all of this, this intelligence breach shows is ho vulnerable we have become. if a 21 -year-old with no special training could do this much damage and go unnoticed fo this long, lord only knows what secrets of hours they chinese have as the associated press pu it, this prospect's bound to raise questions about how the highest profile intel leak in years, one that continues to unfold with almost daily revelations, could have been tossed by such a young low ranking servicemember. also worth noting, is that in some circles, he would be laude as a whistleblower, he revealed vital info that was hidden from the public, which could have huge political implications. and we certainly know that democrats and the press love to celebrate certain types of whistleblowers,. >> would like to see more of these people do is have the courage to do and.

>> showing courage, the courage to stand up to the most plausible person. >> i'm going to at least tell people what are keeping a keen eye on the behavior of the president. >> of course, liberals have a double standard here. that is hardly news at this point, but let's not get distracted. our focus should be on what do these leaks mean for our long-term survival as a nation? are we even as superpower if some of our most sensitive military secrets can be posted on a public server for weeks, months, without officials even knowing? and are we even as superpower superpower if our own secretary of defense sounds this out to lunch when the breach happened? >> i don't know if there are other documents that have been online before. there were some how in the web,

and where exactly, and what access at that point, we don't know. >> they were in the web. no one should be surprised that the biden team tries to gloss over this entire sad saga by arguing that this is just one bad guy he was may be radicalized the whole right-win meal chat room, but given how the biden administration has weapon eyes the intel agencies, misrepresented key national security questions and left as vulnerable to spies and hackers why should americans have to anything they do or say going forward? and that is the angled. join me now, that ryan ceo majority, i was struck by a lot in this story, but by the fact that the publications breaking it didn't have anything or much of anything to say about the

leaks themselves, the substance of the leaks. did they not care that the american public has been lied t about a proxy war that we are fighting right now? could get that's not the point of the propaganda bird that's what they like to comment on. their nods interested in the substantive charges. apparently, in a hot war with russia which is one of the largest nuclear powers, and again, we are not fighting goat herders in the middle east, we're picking a fight with one of the largest nuclear powers. at think it would be important for the american people to understand, but that's not the point of the propaganda. they are the tax attack dogs of the state. apparently along with what appears to be a cia contractor, we are able to track down this whistleblower, but in their minds, it's not all whistleblowers are created equally. if you are a good whistleblower it means you're helping the

administrative state, you're attacking potential existential threats like the duly elected president of the united states, but if you expose and embarrass the regime, you're not a whistleblower, an enemy of the state, i think the part that is really troubling for us to have a truly free society have to have a free and honest press to keep the government accountable but instead it's the propaganda war because it's not about the truth. it's not about it's about the approved narrative of the ministry to state which is a perpetual war on ukraine in which hundreds if not billions of u.s. dollars have been disappeared and yet we continue on and now apparently, where element the path to a hot work with russia. the american people deserve to know the truth. the creative sin and is that he embarrass the regime by exposin the truth. >> i couldn't agree more. victor, to that point, the leak

is apparently causing the biden administration to rethink government surveillance of the web saying that they are lookin at expanding how it monitors social media sites and chat rooms. after u.s. intel failed to realize classified documents were circulated online for weeks . if we were conspiracy theorist, we would say this was almost planned. >> i guess they haven't been surveilling the lab. the fbi is hiring people for 3 million here, they are ignoring the people that do. i think the bottom line is that we are terrifying our allies because when you look at the dealing with the chinese or as you mention, south korea doesn' want to get involved with sanctions or look at this saudi arabia flip and now india is buying oil, these are all salad

i allies, when they look at the pentagon in the fbi by association, and these see the blown fiasco and how they lied about it and said they didn't surveilled american sites when you know they did, they looked at the greatest humiliation in american history and they lied about it and said it was a success in that many people wer left, and now they see this in the president of the united states says it doesn't look lik there was much left in there. i think they are distancing themselves insane at least for now the u.s. is to dangerous of an ally and its vulnerable and incompetent we're either going to look at the new cultivation. these people are incompetent, incompetent, but they are incompetently dangerous and tha was what is garriott there putting other resources in othe agenda that has nothing to do with the pentagon or the qualit of intelligence. we should all be left over for

all of these disasters. >> if there's ever enter accountability, nobody gets fired, no one was fired after afghanistan, no one is fired after the balloon fiasco, no on is fired because of no one fired , this has to be their policy. this is their goal. >> it is their goal. after a series of coincidence, you realize it's intentional. and when there are no consequences for really egregious behavior, at this point it's only going. >> we're spread it highlights a victor was pointing out the importance of true leadership. think how quickly things can evolve into years. because of the change in leadership from the white house it's amazing to me how staggeringly quick it has happened it does remind you of

the importance of next year's election. if you want to join the corner we better think about the leadership and the white house. >> apparently the chairman of the house intel committee mike turner, he was torqued off up today about all of this. watch. >> what do we need to do to mak certain that our classified information is held. how do we find his people befor they do this? before the classified documents are compromised? >> these are good questions, bu this as part of the oversight that the republicans are supposed to be doing. this systems are very conch like , they're not so complex that a 21 -year-old kid can't just print them up, for him out in his pocket and post them on the web. so republicans deserve some response ability here too.

>> i could offer a modest suggestion to maybe the person who leaked the roe versus wade should have been indicted right maybe the person who leaked a confidential conversation with the president of the united states was a part of the new york times should have been prosecuted. may be alvin bragg releasing information about the trumpet ministration. this young 21 -year-old was pretty smart. he said there's no penalty, there's no consequences on thes all the guy got off, so he didn't think there was any big deal. >> thank you both. two significant political stories i could have serious repercussions ahead in 2024. rondell santos supporters are being controlled about the

momentum. rumors started swirling earlier today that mitch mcconnell was prepared to step down. details with our political pane at gnext.

♪

>> standing for the right thing does not come for a. we are required to stand firm for the truth, we are required to hold the line in defense of our values, and we can never ever back down as a former navy man, all i can say is i'm in this and i have only begun to fight. >> is so him of florida governor 's backers worry that he is taking too long to engage in that fight. the miami herald, which it should be noted has smeared ron desantis throughout his career . the supporters worry he is launching too late for that fea would likely heightened earlier this week when congressman byro donald, he's been close announced that he supported trump, now in doing so he becam the fourth rep from the florida delegation to line up behind th former president. so the team is going up the res

of the florida delegation to lobby for their support why ron desantis will travel to capitol hill next time for congressional meet and greet. to discuss this, molly hemingway , fox news contributor, cofounder and president of realtor politics. i'm reading this piece and the new york times tonight, which bills out on this report that ron desantis supporters are calling around florida delegation saying keep your powder dry, don't jump in for a term, it's too early. what about the timing question? >> i think that if you are a republican, whether it is governor santos or any other candidate not in this field, your field is in the next eight weeks. he has a state legislature in session for a few more weeks, s maybe that window is about five

weeks after the end of the legislative session. where the biggest mistakes we have witnessed over the last couple of decades is for a candidate to wait too long whil you're making your debut at the first debate. you need to get out there and start talking to people, you ar answering questions and thinkin about things that may be you hadn't thought about before, ma be think about for talks in 2008 . michael bloomberg in 2020, you major debate appearance and tha your official entry into the race, you come to regret it. if you're a republican presidential, prospect getting into this race, i think the window is the next eight weeks. >> you said there were two camp of people that want him to jump in, explained that? >> some people want him to jump in because they are eager to support him, they're excited by his policies, who they is, they want him to run for president. there is the other camp in

washington, dc that wants him t jump into the race mostly because they think he's the onl way that they are going to somehow be a possibility that donald trump doesn't get the nomination so i think the group is less interested into what is his best interest and they migh hope that that group might thin if we can get them both in the race, they could knock each other out and then one of these other candidates who are pullin in the low single digits might have a shot. ron desantis, his decision needs to be based on what is best for him. it not if he wants to win the presidency, it's a lot more to think about, but his big case i think is that he is a really effective governor and he's exciting to a lot of people and how he administers things, and that is less time sensitive, that case for him. >> the argument of florida, and everybody knows i'm a big fan o florida, it's a big one, but on

the national level, isn't the argument, i'm going to win this. here is the path for me to win this, i'm going to win, and we have to win, no choice pate not attacking from, for which i think it's him nowhere. >> i think that's right, he has to play off his general electio strengths. the problem for ron desantis, he is has been acting like a presidential candidate for the last few weeks. that's why they should be nervous over that period of time , he has been to iowa, he's been all over the place. effectively running as a candidate. during that time, his pulling numbers, he has gone from 30 percent down to 25 percent, meanwhile trump has extended hi lead, so the problem is, it's not necessarily that ron de santis as to say that he is a candidate has to turn things around, he is out there now, an everybody seems to be galvanizing to trump.

>> how do you get out of that brand, i think that's what people are worried about. i want to go onto the senate where the spectator reported that the mcconnell retirement is coming and that senator barrasso, are actively reaching out to fellow republican senators an effort to prepare for an anticipated leadership vote. my question to you is are any o those, do any of those, the mc connell team came out quickly to deny this of course saying that he is going to be back on monday, and he looks forward to coming out to a lot of battles that need to be fought, but do those three really represent the heart and soul of the republican party to be the next leader of the u.s. senate? ticket you could go deeper into that conference and get newer members, may be or even freshma

and they are not yet at that point of seniority to be able t run for this position. i don't know where that would count as far as those votes. when you point to those first three people who might be next in line so to speak, may be in way they are splitting the vote voting creating an opportunity for somebody who might be a freshman, may be younger and more in touch with people who would first be supporting someone getting into ticket you are being too judicious. you are being way too judicious. >> let me say it very simply, and i'm just going to be on rai tonight, i'm a little bit next, so those three men, i like them all personally, they are lovely people, but they are mcconnell to .0. each and every one of them. molly, has that been the right

call for that republican party in the u.s. senate? >> i think it's clear when he had this challenge in november, a bunch of senators trying to get someone better than him to lead the caucus, and, he has go the fall and he's getting increasingly petty and vindictive, punishing them for not supporting them. and not delivering results that republican voters demand, it is our frat time in our country, and he is trying to say that i have kinda been okay on judges. but if people want him to and everything, so when you're picking a new leader, that coul happen soon or in the next year you are going to want somebody who actually delivers on though republican agenda. 33 men, they are close to mc connell.

if it wants to succeed and deliver to voters in a way that's different. >> two words, infrastructure bill, i think mcconnell, all three of them, voted in lockste of that. i know this is one of great interest for you bright x he is reporting under dramatic realignment and the working-class district saying that nine of the top ten list wealthiest congressional district are represented by the while republicans represent worst of the pour poor half of the country. globalization has hammered the middle-class turning many of th poor, but what does this mean going forward? >> i think it has huge implications moving forward, long-lasting ones for the revoking party bright highlight the transformation taking place over the last few years startin with donald trump in 2016, the ways that the parties have effectively realigned themselve now in the democrats really doesn't like you live that is the republican party right now,

so to the point that you were making earlier, talking about republican leadership and the senate needs to reflect that an pursue an agenda and have an agenda that resonates with thos voters, otherwise whoever the next leader will be in the senate is going to end up where mitch mcconnell is which is only 40 percent favorability rating among republicans, that' the lowest of any republican national leader on the stage right now. >> that is pathetic. panel, thank you so much. biden has left ireland and bremen three wishes being in talkshow host. thursday follies is next.

>> laura: it's thursday which means it's time for a special edition of thursday follies. we're joined by raymond arroyo.

biden is wills spreading his malarkey all over the emerald isle i see. >> the poor irish they have the potato famine, their troubles, and now this. cricket they said it would happen brickey i never made the are sweet, their sweat is soake with the foundations of communities across the nation. piece is that necessary foundation for progress for growth as any leader has over the last ten years. excuse me, 91 hours, just one o our conversations. i traveled 17,000 miles with him . >> the washington post has give him bottomless pinocchio's and not kidding for that comment he said it more than 20 times that he traveled 17,000 miles with x

jinping, even the dogs and ireland were running away from the president today. this happens in zombie movies t where the dogs always avoid the reanimated ones. i bet that's what's happening here. it looked like he wandered onto a harry potter set. they had to position biden repeatedly to get the position correct very our president president rang the piece fell, but as josie in a second, he left the scene a little early. he had to bring the belt more than one time. he had to ring it a few times. >> i think he's had his bell rung one too many times. i want to thank you for reading such a long script because i wa

defense were not facing similar concerns and could mount a better argument than this. >> senator feinstein has been a champion for california. she deserves respect, it's interesting to me, to look for those that are going after senator feinstein that way. >> fetterman has been in walter reed for weeks, and why stop there bear as long as we are talking about competency to hol office, come on man, we've got to look deeper. there are jokes about serving the people, if that is the criteria, bar the door. to get second, please. to get my second wish is that through barrymore would stop turning her talkshow into a

"the ingraham angle" has done a lot of research on this and found that dungeons and dragons is denying the reports, there are no plans to cut those characters. that is it for us now, tune in next time for our next installment of women's at that racist. now, as they spill through the open borders in huge amounts of migrants for into the country, president biden wants to furthe incentivize the legality, under the cover of an overseas trip h said he is expanding health car access for illegals. >> they are american and every way except on papers. they need to get the opportunities and support they deserve. these so-called dreamers will b able to apply for medicaid and affordable care act health coverage putting them medicaid programs on the lip. here is texas lieutenant governor dan patrick great okay

dan, it's not like you guys haven't been dealing with enoug already, but what does this do to the equation? >> it can break our bank in every other bank where we already have 50 percent of all children in texas is on medicaid , 50 percent of all on medicaid, and our budget is about 33 million ll a year in medicaid. is about 85 percent of our budget, so every state, that is pretty much the budgets, the more you increase medicaid and the more people you put on it, the more you bust budgets, just like texas has fought back abou expanding medicaid. to address any population needs healthcare, but the students, this is a light to them. you have to remain in texas to have medicaid, they asked as to ignore the fact that the social security number so they can't qualify anyway.

this is a fraud on these kids who came to america, brought by their families, many have been here a long time, but they can' get a job anywhere. because the don't have a social security number. we can't put the whole world on medicaid. we want to take over the border ourselves, hopefully, bite bide if he wants to see was, but it says if you are a criminal and cross the border in texas with record you could face up to lif in prison the strongest of the on the board approved if you cross a second time, you will b in jail. we will let biden take us to court and we will see who wins. >> dn, the republican nominee, whoever it is, in 2024, how important is the border issue? >> feel better, laura. look, it is the number one issue
