understanding how to train them and he changes and he gets paroled and now he has independence and a second chance. aaron, you have a future of a beautiful legacy, too. >> bill: smart and beautiful. how about that? >> dana: our former produces raises these puppies. i think dana will do a good job. hard to see her go, though. >> harris: developing this hour, people at the top of the f.b.i. when donald trump was president just got caught playing dirty. the john durham report shows they used unverified information to go after the nation's 45th commander-in-chief. durham took his time to get it done right, four years and now we know what republican lawmakers fought so hard to show the american people. they were blocked and ignored at every turn by democrats and some big television networks. i'm harris faulkner and you are

in "the faulkner focus." the review is 306 pages. it is a scathing indictment exposing the political rot at the top of some of our nation's most powerful law enforcement agencies. it concludes the f.b.i.'s launch of crossfire hurricane. that was an operation driven largely by hillary clinton's presidential campaign. it shows just how dirty and partisan their persecution of donald trump actually was. an excerpt. the d.o.j. and the f.b.i. failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law and there is continuing need for the f.b.i. and the department to recognize apparent confirmation bias and an over willingness to rely on information from individuals connected to political opponents. jim jordan inviting special counsel john durham to testify

before his committee next week. reaction to the report, buckle up. >> the f.b.i. knew it was a lie. they had no evidence. no evidence whatsoever to commence this operation. >> the f.b.i. has a lot of work to do to restructure itself and repair its reputation. it is a very partisan organization. >> we need to end the f.b.i. as we know it. it needs to be broken up. clearly it has become corrupt. the leadership is corrupt. >> we should not have important institutions like the department of justice and the f.b.i. willing to do the political bidding of democrats. >> harris: matt whitaker former acting attorney general during the trump administration said this. >> the first two years of the trump administration we were ham strung by this invest gays. the media, every night it was bombshell, bombshell. people won pulitzer prizes and folks got million dollar book deals and people on cable tv making money and were all part

of this conspiracy to lie to the american people. >> harris: david spunt is live for us at the justice department with more. david. >> i remember back in 2019 then president donald trump multiple times touted the john durham investigation anxiously awaiting it. here we are four years later. 306-page report dropped yesterday. it is scathing toward the f.b.i. no question about it. but an important note, this is the f.b.i. of 2016 and 2017. the f.b.i. includes in a statement to fox news they have made multiple changes over the past four years. let's read some other parts from the report, durham writes our investigation revealed that senior f.b.i. personnel displayed a serious lack of analytical rigor towards the information that they received especially information received from politically-affiliated persons and entities. he says the f.b.i. rushed that crossfire hurricane investigation. the obama white house also

briefed in 2016 durham took two cases the trial. lost them both. a former f.b.i. attorney pled guilty to a minor charge. another major theme. the clinton campaign was treated much differently than the trump campaign and there was a rush by f.b.i. officials to implicate trump with no hard evidence. >> it is classic durham. everything the russia investigation was not. methodical, he just goes through the facts and shows how false accounts were created, often in coordination with the clinton campaign. >> the f.b.i. out with this statement. the conduct in 2016 and 2017 that special counsel durham examined was the recent that current f.b.i. leadership implemented dozens of corrective actions now in place for some time. had those reforms been if place in 2016 the missteps identified in the report could have been prevented. durham's critics say that he along with then attorney general bill barr were the ones with a

political motive as pointed out in the 2019 michael horowitz i.g. report. no question, though, a difficult time for the f.b.i. but even durham in his report says he is confident that the changes the f.b.i. has put in place over the past few years will keep history from repeating itself. >> harris: thank you. piercing headlines all over the place. reacting to the durham report. one op-ed the f.b.i.'s integrity has been fatally compromised. durham proves that hill tree and the f.b.i. tried to rig the 2016 election. and this part. also points out an unequal treatment of clinton and trump. top f.b.i. officials also saved hillary clinton by scoring the federal statute book and treating her perpetual violations on federal laws of classified documents as an error and unintentional. jason chaffetz, former

republican congressman from utah and chairman of the oversight committee. when you first saw this and digging through the 306 pages what are we learning? >> it is disgusting. there is no consequence. nobody prosecuted or handcuffs or nobody going the jail. nobody lost their job or pension. people got promoted. they sell million dollar book deals and go on television and start lecturing us about leadership and those types of things. you even had an f.b.i. attorney who forged documents to effect an election. he didn't lose his law license. he had to pay $1 thousand fine, and that's the only consequence of all this? they rigged an election. they affected an election. you know what? adam schiff and eric swalwell, why do they have security clearances?

why aren't they resigning in shame? these people went before the cameras for years and said they had seen the direct evidence that durham now says was never there and i haven't seen any apologies, no correction of the record. where is the "washington post", "new york times." all these other ones correcting the record? they never did. >> harris: i want to lean in just a little bit on those security clearances. when you talk about accountability you could start there. >> yeah. that's the easy one, right? these 51 people that signed the letter on the intelligence i know it's a different topic but they never lost their security clearance. the people that were involved and engaged in the senior levels of the f.b.i. still have security clearances. why? why does eric swalwell and adam schiff still have a security clearance? as a member of congress you get a security clearance. you can lose it. how come congress is not moving on it? kevin mccarthy should put that on the floor and strip those people of their security

clearance. >> harris: we'll see if he does it. you mentioned the media. that was my focus. the liberal media shrugging off the durham findings. we'll look at that. >> the report is now here. it has dropped and it might not have produced everything of what some republicans hoped for. to the degree it does exonerate donald trump. >> the durham probe has loomed large on the part fantasy and hobby horse. >> john durham isn't bringing any new charges. >> durham is a pathetic character. i think federal prosecutors have a 97% conviction rate. he was 0 for two. he got a plea for a parking kick et. that's it. >> harris: jason, i was talking about what could even appear as complicity with some in the liberal media for not moving on what they knew. hunter biden laptop is only one of those things. >> yeah, listen. you have to also couple this

with 1,000 plus pages that michael horowitz, the inspector general at the department of justice put forward. he made 12 recommendations for prosecution. none of those were moved on by the department of justice to prosecute including a manipulation of the media. the whole strategy here was to plant this story, give it to the media, give it legs, then to justify the idea they could ratchet up the investigation. that affects an election. twice they came up with past th consequences. >> harris: what's amazing to me. we don't have to go on too long about this because we want to move forward. it is amazing that donald trump wants to run to lead this country again after all that we're finding out now that he and other republicans around him like yourself, look at the facts.

nobody outside of fox really would even report what was going on and look when you peel back the onion what's underneath it all. the "new york post" reporting the internal federal service removed its entire investigative team from the long running biden tax fraud case. the justice department made that move suddenly yesterday. suspicious timing with recent whistleblower claims alleging the cover-up in the hunter biden case, one bis re whistleblower on that team calls the move clearly retaliatory. that person also claims there is preferential treatment for the first son and garland gave congress false testimony to defend hunter biden. it could be a huge problem. that would be on tape. >> well listen, senator grassley knows who this person is. i believe congressman and chairman jim jordan and james

comer know who it is. they need to get the whistleblower up before congress. this is of deep concern. you could document more than $30 million that is flowing into the biden family and look, you have hunter biden himself admitting having paid more than a million dollars to the i.r.s. that he was under investigation. the conclusion is more than justifiable for congress to dive deeper into. >> harris: it sounds like a viciously large number. we were working with 10 million on one side now looking at up to 30. the numbers of bidens involved up to nine. look, the public just needs to know the truth. and like what we just found out with john durham's report. maybe you need to have somebody else taking a look at this. i don't know. your last quick word. >> i don't know why there isn't a special prosecutor. there is a direct conflict of interest for this attorney general. there should be a special prosecutor and it should have

been from the very beginning. >> harris: we could be looking at the next marketing debacle by a beer company. miller lite jumps into the woke river doing the back stroke. president biden staring down major hurdles. how do you juggle governing, scandals and campaign. >> the various crises by this administration is where the focus of the american public is now. look for leadership. joe biden is not the one to deliver that leadership. >> harris: the facts. the nation's crisis after crisis piling up under biden. critics say they know what could keep him to a single term. beautiful. you see how the light catches the hubcap? stunning. you sure you don't want your family in the family photos? they helped us save money when we bundled, so... yeah. same difference. okay.

veteran homeowners, what if you could save a lot of money every month by paying off your car loan and paying off your high rate credit card debt and still have cash left over to put in the bank? with the newday 100 va cash out loan, you could do it all. take out an average of $70,000 with no upfront fees, no upfront appraisal fees, termite inspection or water test fee. because a veteran shouldn't have to come up with money to get money.

>> harris: does president biden need a new 2024 campaign strategy? democrats especially black americans who have taken polls are statistically leaning away from him now. plan b, he may look to compete in north carolina and even test the waters in florida? home to two of his potential gop rivals. according to the "washington post" the biden camp hopes it will be a path to victory if the president ends up struggling in other battleground states. the snails pace of his re-election bid. one tv network saying biden must do major multi-tasking with the nation's list of crises piling up on his watch. another report highlights four political controversies biden is facing. number one, his son's shady business dealings with foreign countries. like china. two, classified documents found in biden's personal possession,

like next to the corvette in his garage. three, his student loan forgiveness plan is in limbo. and fourth on the list, the president's age as he would be 86 years old at the end of a potential second term. critics say it is just too much to overcome. >> i've never seen a president do so much damage in such little time. >> what other presidency has had this kind of corruption where their entire family has capitalized and enriched themselves off the taxpayers and off of using the biden name? >> the various crises by this administration. joe biden is not the one to deliver that leadership. >> harris: democratic pollster and former advisor doug schoen say voters may look to michelle obama to save the day should biden bow out or if they push him out. doug schoen himself.

kellyanne conway, fox news contributor and former senior counselor to president trump, a long-tim pollster and president of ka consulting. you two have crossed paths over the years. >> it is fair to say we have >> harris: let's talk about the headwind pushing against biden right now. kellyanne, i will start with you. >> no question and why upwards of 2/3 of democrats don't want biden to seek that second term. he is having trouble gaining traction and attention, endorsements and excitement within his own party. mary anne williamson and rfk junior have a third of the vote now according to respectable polls and they aren't able to debate joe biden. it would be political mal practice for the biden campaign try not to compete in north carolina. you have a democrat governor. since 2008 when obama/biden won north carolina, that state

decided by 3 1/2 percent or viewers but biden campaign is all by giving up on 2 or 3 states that obama/biden carried twice. iowa, ohio and florida. i don't think biden can be competitive in any of those three and they have to retain the gains in places like michigan wisconsin and smart people like doug are looking for it. how weak tatty biden is. >> harris: your name called, doug. >> i think kellyanne is largely right. i think it will be very difficult for joe biden to compete in florida. i did a lot of work in florida during the last election. it is trending republican for a variety of reasons and ways that will make it very tough for biden or any democrat. i also think that biden faces a

bigger issue than everything your commentators alluded to, which are inflation, high interest rates, and the downturn or recession. economics tends to drive elections and the economic news has not been good. finally, the durham report, if anything, is a huge benefit to the republicans. generally and to donald trump personally. it is a vindication of his position and his argument that he has been unfairly targeted in all these investigations. >> harris: an op-ed with this today. the hill actually. just like in 2016, false confidence against trump could be our downfall in 2024. that's margaret white writing that. what do you say to that? i will go in reverse order now. doug. >> i think if joe biden's

ratings are in the mid 30s. >> harris: they are. >> right. if they stay there, the election is no longer a choice between the two. it is a referendum on the president. i'm old enough, kellyanne and you, harris not, to remember the 1980 election, a referendum on jimmy carter that led to a sweep for the republicans and ronald reagan. i worry that there will be a similar potential reaction to biden unless his ratings go up on economic issues, on the southern border, on climate, and on a whole range of issues that american people feel are most important. >> harris: i want to piggyback off what he said. does getting a deal to raise the debt ceiling and address some of

the excessive spending, does that get those polls for biden to pop? >> no, nobody believes he wanted the deal. nobody believes he is fiscally responsible. this is a man who spent trillions of dollars of money we don't have on things we didn't ask for or need. meanwhile, americans will tell you they are living paycheck to paycheck. everyday life is increasingly unaffordable. to this point about overconfidence by the democrats. that did hurt them. also hurt them to have a weak candidate in hillary clinton. if they stuck with biden, that toxic stew is coming back and you know donald trump and whoever the republican nominee but particularly trump will put in the energy and investment and crisscross the country 8 or 9 stops a day. biden won't do that and kamala harris can't do that. something else. the durham report has an effect. at a person who had to tell

president trump what a golden shower was, joe biden will apologized. it hampered the presidency. we would talk about things, russia, russia, russia. the first true election where people will go to the polls knowing they were lied to about that and hunter and part of the consideration for these voters. >> harris: that election piece is really critical. democrats have to be looking down. they were willing to play with the primary and move south carolina up to get those black votes. and then we just found out that 90%, the following among black voters biden had and now he has 58% and questions have to loom why is that? and should you have moved where you thought you could get the black vote up before iowa? it is a lot going on. doug, i come to you next on this one. bud light not the only company getting a frosty reception to a woke campaign.

this miller lite. >> women were among the first to brew beer ever. centuries later how did the industry pay homage to us? they put us in bikini. today miller lite is on a mission to clean up their [bleep] but the whole industry's [bleep]. >> harris: we can't say the cuss word on television and they ran it at least 11 times in the ad. like we don't have any other vocabulary to use. people don't like it. one users tweeted miller lite saw the bud light disaster and decided at the needed their own woke beer ad. did no one learn from bud light's mistake? almost immediately after a transgender activist posted her marketing partnership video in early april. jimmy failla. >> we used to live in saying the

customer is right. now they are a racist trans fob. beer drinkers are a bacon and egg crowd. they want beer, not inclusion and diversity. >> harris: doug. >> what i would say is this ad is wrong for so many reasons. the reference to profanity, the idea that somehow a woman in a bikini is inherently offensive strikes me as a bit extreme. and to say that, you know, women are brew masters and we have to engage in compost, none of this makes any sense to me. look, i admit i'm an aging male and whether that's good or bad, but i grew up in an america

where we celebrated the tasteful presentation of men and women at leisure enjoying beer. what's wrong with that? >> harris: there is so much to work with here. that's the democrat on my panel. kellyanne. >> well, first of all, i think miller lite knows exactly what they are doing. they did learn something. they think controversy sells. bud light ad was the messenger people objected to. here it's the message. i don't know any women. i haven't talked to women who say you know what's got my goat, the fact that beer commercials showed women if bikinis and we need to compost those. they aren't even appealing to the rank and file women interested this beer. the ill timing of this cannot be mistaken. martha stewart at 81 is on the cover of "sports illustrated" in

a bathing suit. i look amazing. god bless her. i want to say this. the miller lite commercial doesn't understand that we women whatever we say looks great we spend billions of dollars a year trying to look and feel better. that's our right. but this is just nonsense. i'm not sure who the target audience is. maybe not even beer drinkers, certainly not most women. >> harris: doug, i want to say when you were talking about the yest yesteryears, those are all of us. this is new stuff we're talking about here. kellyanne said maybe it's on purpose but not lucrative so far. >> i would just quickly repeat what kellyanne underscored. i don't know who this is targeting. i don't think it's targeted at feminist beer drinkers and the whole premise of the commercial makes no sense to me. i watched it three times before i thought i had a sense and then

i realized it makes no sense. >> harris: that will be more than viewers potentially watch it. you are an expert now. great to see you both. thank you very much. president biden is set to restart debt talks with congressional leaders. why members of his own political party don't want him to negotiate with republicans? do they want to see the country fail? why wouldn't they? parents and critics tearing into new york city's decision to house migrants in schools. illegal immigrants alongside little kids. >> they have centers, maybe churches that have extra floors. i don't think that the school should have been an option at all. >> harris: the decisions of a sanctuary city. parents, some threatening to pull their children out of public school. nate foye reporting on it all. kat cammack in "focus" next.

>> harris: we come in with this fox news alert. parents are not having what's happening here on the streets of new york. you will find them in protest of the city's move to house adult illegal immigrants inside public school gyms. at least seven gyms have now been closed to young students being turned into illegal immigrant shelters. some parents are threatening to pull their children from school because of serious safety concerns. teachers are joining the parents in protest of this one. >> i don't think this is a good idea because it's inside of a school. >> it doesn't have to be in the pub particular schools. put them somewhere else. >> i don't mind giving a helping hand but when it interferes with the education of our students i do care. it makes me angry. >> harris: i thought grandma

would say something different. nate foye live at one of the city schools in question, ps172 in brooklyn. nate. >> harris, those parents that you just played are not alone. this morning mayor eric adams is considering 20 schools in new york city to house migrants in the adjacent gyms that are disattached from the schools themselves. the case of ps172. parents still very upset and left behind some signs that you can see. multiple parents left after protesting for hours. one sign says don't violate their learning space and the other says we want our gym space. that gym is where migrants will be staying on a temporary short-term basis but also an undetermined amount of time. take a look at this video as a lot of parents came to protest. a small group slept overnight and joined by more parents this morning. parents say it is not a suitable situation for the migrants or their children.

the school is a fire hazard with the migrants in the gym and they are concerned about their children who just went through the pandemic losing extracurricular activities and recess and gym class as a result of migrants filling the space in the gym. listen to this. >> stripping kids of gym and access to recess, robs them of physical, social and learning and this is something they need to stimulate them. in some cases adult males. i don't think feel safe with having adult males with no background checks around our children. >> parents protested at another brooklyn elementary school this morning. despite having confidence in law enforcement, new york state assemblyly brian march says he understands what parents are concerned. >> we don't know who some of these folks are. we like to believe they're here for the right reasons. at the end of the day people

should be worried and concern. i have faith in our law enforcement. i think our kern are safe but people should have cause for concern for sure. >> according to the co-president of the parent teachers association here this school has 463 students, 142 of them are not at school today. that's 30% of the school absent and i'm told a lot of those parents plan to keep their kids out of school until mayor adams takes the migrants out of the school's gym. >> harris: quickly, you are on the ground. it has been a while since i've been in ps172. i know exactly where it is in brooklyn. i have a child in gym gnat particulars not far from there. how far would the kids be from the illegal immigrants in the confined structure? >> they would be right next to them but it would be a disattached gym. every school the city is considering the gymnasium is

separate from the school itself but there are concerns about the fire safety. i mentioned it is a fire hazard with the school as a result of the migrants filling that space. and with buses coming every day there are a lot of concerns about the school day being interrupted and test scores, as you know, are way down since the pandemic. a lot of parents feel their children don't need another disruption. >> harris: i anticipate the city's argument. everything is right next to each other. when you say they aren't in the same building they aren't next to each other. brooklyn could fit on a postage stamp. republican congresswoman kat cammack of florida member of the energy committee and the subcommittee on the weaponization of the federal government is in "focus" now. what is your initial reaction to this? >> harris, it is out rage.

before they were sacrificeing children's education and safety. they were pushing our homeless veterans out to make room for these illegals shipped in and bused in. you heard me say it before and i'll say it again. you play stupid games you win stupid prizes. as a sanctuary city new york made their bed and have to contend with the fact they have 1500 illegals coming to their city every day. not only that but 65% of the illegals that they are housing and taking care of are on the public dole. that means their food, housing, healthcare and beyond. it is all at the expense of our kids and our veterans. so this is really starting to hit close to home for so many people and if there is not a consequence for these illegals coming in, it will just continue. >> harris: i just remember when he was running mayor adams in new york city had wanted there to be some voting allowances for people who were not citizens.

i don't know how shocked everybody can be that now that the sanctuary city is an actual sanctuary, that he wouldn't welcome it. i guess we should be shocked. i don't know. >> that's the thing. when you look at last congress, hr1 before the politicians act that was nancy pelosi's signature piece of legislation that would have not only nationalized our elections but would have allowed non-citizens to vote. it doesn't take a genius to put 2 and 2 together. non-citizens being allowed to vote and open border. it seems to me the left will do anything to win an election even at the expense of national security. certainly at the expense of our kids. we've seen homeless veterans getting booted out of hotels and facilities to make way for these illegals that have been shipped in. >> harris: that was just yesterday. today is public school kids in new york at seven different locations. it has been quite a week. members of chicago's black community rallied friday and

went after city leaders for opening up police stations and other abandoned schools to house illegal immigrants. watch. >> our specific frustration lies in the continuous and blatant disregard for the safety and overall quality of life of black residents. >> a couple of my participants. they are homeless. when i went about inquiring about housing, one of my participants reached me on my phone after hours and said i did get placed on a wait list but i was told the immigrants was taking priority. >> harris: let me get this straight. now we can add to u.s. military veterans displaced, public school children put in a way unsafe for them so parents are taking them out of school. they are displaced by illegal immigrants. now black residents are concerned about the homeless in chicago being displaced by illegal residents. >> this is just wild.

i'm glad you mentioned what's happening. in new york, they are actually using one of the former training academies for the nypd to house these folks. they still have an active range where they do target practice that is in use that is also housing illegals. does anyone see a problem with this? this is absurd. i feel like i'm taking crazy pills when i read these stories and hearing from border patrol agents who are exhausted. i got a text from one today saying there has to be consequences if we stem the flow. we can't maintain this. we're exhausted and terrified for our families and can't do our jobs, help us please. >> harris: i want to fact check now. are they still at the border working the seven day rotation, no time off? >> yes, yes. i'm telling you right now in california and in arizona, those sectors are getting hit the hardest. i think texas the state of texas has stepped up as much as they

possibly can to get reinforcements. but arizona and california they're struggling and terrified for their communities and overworked, underpaid and unappreciated. i am deeply concerned we have seen a pakistani on the internat international terrorist watch list and you know how many hundreds of thousands of gotaways are now in our country that have criminal pafts and intentions. this is scary stuff. >> harris: i have told border patrol leadership on this program in the last few days how much we pray for them and with them. they need some rest. if they will catch terrorists, can you imagine how critical that job is to all of us, our sovereignty at stake here. we have to make sure that they feel whole and appreciated. congresswoman, thank you for being in "focus."

>> thank you. have a great week. >> harris: we have been reporting on the marine veteran charged in the choke hold death of a mentally disturbed man threatening passengers inside of a subway car. no place for them to go. penny's lawyer fired back at the accusations that his client is racist. >> he was fearful for the safety of those passengers. so when he acted, his mindset was to keep his fellow passengers safe from attack. >> harris: fellow marine veterans now rallying around daniel penny and yes, a couple are joining me now in "focus." stay close.

>> harris: witnesses say jordan neely was acting erratically and threatening passenger. daniel penny's attorney gave an interview to judge jeanine. he said his client sprang into action to protect his fellow passengers and race had nothing to do with it. >> daniel has been called a murderer by some, vigilante by others, many claim he acted

based on race. what do you say to those people? >> none of that is based on the facts. as to race, it is simply not the motivation for danny. he is the one who put himself in danger to save who? all the people on that train, black people, brown people, white people, it didn't matter to danny. danny put his life at risk to save all those people. it has nothing to do with race. >> harris: more than $2 million in donations have been raised. the crowd funding site for legal bills is where it's happening. an op-ed titled free daniel penny, a marine uses his strength to fight for those unable to fight for himself. today it's common to lament the state of american manhood but when a good man does step forward he is treated as a criminal. chad and victor are both u.s.

marine veterans and glad to have you in "focus" today. victor, i want to start with you and just your initial response to all of this. >> well, harris, i have been in the exact same situation that danny was in. and it requires awareness, assessment and then do you avoid it or take action in order to protect people? i think both the technique and restraint that he used, which is called the vascular restraint technique, not a choke, is the most reasonable use of force versus punching, kicking, slamming to stop what we would consider an active -- someone who is being active aggression. i would say this, it is very important. why did this even happen? the systemic racism message that is being fueled right now against a hero is so backwards. the problem is a systemic lack

of fathers in the home and poor jordan neely. saw his mother being murdered at 14 years old and stuffed in a suitcase. >> dana: i'm glad you bring that up, chad. there is room in our hearts and prayers for someone who was under pressure and struggling. but inside that car, that rail car, was a tough decision to make and you have some thoughts on that and why you are supporting daniel penny. >> penny is a united states marine. i applaud the fact he stood up and did something. he protected people he didn't believe could protect himself. so often now we see incidents like this where people, men stand around and video incidents like this with a cell phone and don't act. we wonder why isn't someone stepping up? he did exactly what he should do. he stepped up to defend people in that car. black, brown, white, he did the right thing. you have to remember victor brought up a good point of

neely's past but you have to realize who penny was facing. this guy had 42 arrests in the last ten years. in 2021 he punched a 67-year-old woman on a subway train in the face. he was not a good person. he was a dangerous person. penny did what he thought he could do. tried to restrain this jordan neely and it's tragic what happened but he was doing what he thought to do to protect other people including himself and he has a right to do that. >> harris: thank you for being here and thank you for your service as well.
