and help their own community and their own sense of self back to the light. manhood, i look forward to reading this book in-depth. thank you for being with us tonight. >> thank you. that will do it for us tonight here on "fox news tonight". coming up next is, of course, the great sean hannity who has with him once again tonight all of his friends. hello, friends. hold on. they have a message for you. what is the message for will? >> hi will! >> it was hi will. welcome to hannity. we are back with our live audience tonight in studio. lindsey graham, tomi lahren, kellyanne conway, judge jeanine pirro right here on set. first aid dire warning from a former fbi special agent. listen to this. the fbi will crush you.

the government will crush you and your family if you try to expose the truth about their wrongdoing. make no mistake. there is serious misconduct going on at this fbi. some now believe that america's once premier law enforcement agency is now beyond repair especially the blatantly partisan washington field office which seemingly operates as an arm of the democratic party. let us be clear. this isn't just about the bureau's anti- trump witchhunt called crossfire hurricane which we have gone into great detail this week. the political rot extends far beyond the former president of the united states. you have pro- abortion activist, traditional catholics, people, moms and dads who merely attend trump rallies. even angry parents. how dare they speak out about age-appropriate material being taught to their kids or crt. how about we stick to reading, writing, math, science and computers. if they speak out at a school

board meeting, you speak out against critical race theory and you can be scrutinized by your weaponize fbi simply because of your beliefs. all of course while hunter biden and company can apparently based on his own laptop get away with pretty much everything and anything with zero consequences. in a moment tonight john solomon will join us. it's a breaking news story. information on the fbi's decision to obtain financial decisions from americans without any legal process at all whatsoever. no warrant, no subpoena, nothing. those targeted committed no crimes. they merely traveled to washington, d.c. on or around january 6th to attend former president trump's speech. this is egregious and an abuse of power. those that are called out from inside the fbi are brutally punished. just listen to today's testimony from three former agents. look at this. >> they see what becomes of

whistleblowers while the fbi destroys their careers and suspends them under false pretenses. no true options for recourse or remedy. this is by design. it creates an orwellian atmosphere for. >> they weaponize the security clearance process to secure me from active duty within one month. in addition to an on definite unpaid suspension the fbi had a campaign of humiliation and intimidation to punish and pressure me to resign. in violation of hipaa, individuals leaked my private medical into information to a reporter. >> i was retaliated against because i questioned the official narrative of the events of january sixth. as a result i was accused of promoting conspiratorial views and unreliable information. i am hopeful scrutiny from congress and the inspector general will deter the fbi from abusing the security clearance process to retaliate against others the way it retaliated against me.

>> one of the whistleblowers you heard from, marcus allen, had this to say about the director of the fbi and january 6th. take a look at this. >> mr. allen, is it your belief that you were retaliated against because you shared an e-mail that questioned the truthfulness of fbi director christopher wray? >> yes, sir. >> you believed he wasn't truthful based on testimony given to the united states senate? is that right? >> yes, sir. >> in that testimony you believe christopher wray indicated there were no confidential informants and no fbi assets that were present at the capitol on january 6th that were part of the violent right? >> yes, sir. mark s. allen's attorney will join us in a moment. here is the truth. january 6th we now know could have been prevented according to the federal january 6th investigators, quote, law enforcement had a direct role in contributing to the security

failures that led to the violence. quote, investigators found that the capitol was inadequately defended on january 6th, not because of an intelligence failure, but because of a failure to act on the intelligence. let's listen to even the mainstream media mobs nbc last year holt report. listen to this. >> the jen reese sixth committee final report was more than 800 pages. some material did not make the cut including much of its findings on the failures of federal law enforcement leading up to the attack. >> the chief investigator for the january 6 committee says the government could have prevented it. >> had law enforcement agencies acted, do you believe the attack on the capitol could have been successfully repelled? >> it would have been a lot different had law enforcement taken a more assertive protective posture. >> people familiar with the committee's works a members downplayed the finding because they wanted to keep the focus on former president trump.

>> this is why liz cheney should not be ashamed of herself. why did christopher wray fail to act? what was going on inside the fbi? what were they doing to protect the capitol? pretty much nothing. the capitol police chief was begging for back up in the days before and that day alone. he requested national guard assistance not once, but six separate times. he was denied it each and every time. here is what he said to this show. watch. >> there was a number of requests. i went on january 3rd requesting the national guard from paul irving. that was the first request for the national guard. then i went to mike stenger the senate sergeant-at-arms. that intelligence assessment did not indicate the level of threat that we not know existed. the significant threat that was out there and the fact that the fbi was tracking 18 domestic terrorist suspects coming to the capitol. my intelligence unit on the fourth, fifth and six put out intelligence that was saying low

probability of civil disobedience. >> keep in mind that leading up to the sixth and president trump with four witnesses that have already been interviewed by me, that all back up his story, he ordered the national guard to remain available in case something happens. what was our federal government doing? they knew the building would be packed with lawmakers and the vice president of our great country. they knew a huge emotionally charged crowd would be gathering nearby. they knew based on actionable intelligence that bad actors and agitators would be present. so what on earth was the fbi doing to protect the capitol and our elected officials? christopher wray gets his way and we will never know. this was the complete farce of the january 6 committee with the predetermined outcome. sadly, nothing has been done to prevent this from ever happening again. that is not good. we should be protecting our capitol, our institutions and

elected officials just like we should have followed through on the 574 riots in the summer of 2020. none of them were ever fully investigated. the people responsible for thousands and injured cops, two dozen dead americans and billions in property damage were never held accountable. of course on the federal level democrats are not interested in holding the fbi accountable. after vilifying local law enforcement for years and defund , they have now entered into a warm embrace of the fbi. this love affair with federal law enforcement will likely continue as long as the washington field office does the democratic party's bidding. for example, the party that once loved and respected whistleblowers now threats, they seem to threaten them. >> mr. allen have you used twitter? yes or no? >> i have utilized twitter. >> is your account@?

>> that is absolutely not my account. >> that is not your account? on december 5th, 2022 an account under the name marcus allen retweeted a tweet. you haven't let me finish the question. the time is mine. on december 5th, 2022 an account under the name of marcus alan retweeted a tweet that said, quote, nancy pelosi staged january 6th. retweet if you agree, end quote. do you agree with that statement? yes or no? >> no, ma'am. that is not my account at all. >> i am asking whether you agree with that statement? >> can you rephrase the statement? >> the time has expired. >> i just want him to answer the question. >> i am just telling you your time is up. >> do you believe and agree with

the statement that this person tweeted that nancy pelosi staged january 6? yes or no? >> no. >> thank you. >> it is not his account. joining us now to respond is the attorney representing marcus allen and the irs whistleblower in the hunter biden case, tristen levitt. thank you and welcome aboard. >> a pleasure to be here. >> why is there a dual justice system? i don't have any doubt in my mind that we have that. >> that's a complicated question. clearly one of the factors has been that those that are in the ruling part of the fbi and in other places have a one party mind, one ideology and one way of looking at things. those that challenge that are willing to attack. >> how hard is it for a decorated combat marine like marcus allen to have the fbi questioning his allegiance to his own country? a man that put his life on the line for all of us in iraq? how does that feel for him?

>> it is very disconcerting for him. he is doing what he believes is right. he is a person of faith. he is guided by his conscience. he has just been trying to play this straight. for them to treat him the way they did to begin with and to have this kind of treatment subsequently, you saw that exchange with ms. sanchez and that kind of treatment is precisely why he opted to not be interviewed by the democrats initially. this is how they treated steve friend and george hill. he saw they released a report explicitly going after them and smearing these individuals. when they act that way, it tells you exactly what it is they are after. for him it has been disconcerting. >> your client now has been suspended. do you believe this is retaliatory? what recourse or remedy might he have? >> we actually empower oversight which i am the president that represents marcus allen and steve friend.

mr. allen has had his clearance suspended. we have filed a complaint with the department of justice office of inspector general. they have the jurisdiction which is a weak process for investigating retaliation through the means of suspension of security clearance. it requires that they wait a year after that happens. he has reached the year mark. he is at 16 months without a paycheck since his clearance was suspended. we are very happy that the doj inspector general is looking at that. they will be interviewed tomorrow. we are confident they will help to write things because his is a very straightforward case of whistleblower retaliation. >> do you believe the fbi at the top leadership is now trying to stop whistleblowers like your client from coming forward to silence them and are they intimidating them and harassing them and violating whistleblower protection laws? >> yes to the first three. the fourth one is a little bit tricky. they are using security

clearances because that's a method they have available to them. other agencies have done that before in my career working on capitol hill as an investigator. the fbi is aggressively using the suspension of clearances to go after whistleblowers. part of the reason they do this is because the fbi does not have strong whistleblower protections. when the modern act was passed in 1978 the fbi was given an special exception. not long after j edgar hoover. they have had a lot of clout. obviously the friends and allies have been diminishing as the recent stripes have come to light. that has allowed them to be able to get away with quite a bit that other agencies wouldn't. >> that is chilling. we wish your clients the best. joining us now with a full report on the bank record scandal at the fbi, editor-in-chief investigative reporter, our friend john solomon is back with us. good to see you. >> good to be with you. >> this scandal is way bigger

than i think people know and dangerous because it violates all silver civil liberties. they would be as outspoken as we are, but their silence is deafening. >> 40 years ago they were outraged by abuses by the fbi that mirror what the whistleblowers today allege. let's ink about this. this is not a dispute between a manager and employee. the whistleblowers are raising fundamental constitutional issues. for instance, one of the whistleblowers revealed that the fbi went about and got peoples bank records who were in washington, d.c. on january 6. some never committed any crimes or were suspected of committing crimes. they got them without a subpoena, court order or letter. the bank volunteered them. bank of america has not responded to that allegation. some people volunteered at. we don't have a problem taking it. that is end run around. it's a due process of the fourth amendment. other whistleblowers like mr. friend in the clip, he has

allege they have excessively use force. they have sent out swat teams to go out and arrest people for misdemeanor crimes because they want to humiliate them. as steve friend testified today, they made the process the punishment. even if you don't commit a crime the process of being investigated by the fbi is so onerous that that is the punishment. these are exactly what the founding fathers never intended for a powerful federal agency to have the ability to do. >> we just asked for it and they gave it to us? the fact is they know what the legal process is. it's not just an end around. it's an end around the law, isn't it? >> it is. we talked to brent told her today. he is a great legal mind. this is clearly unconstitutional. the fbi and the justice department know it and they don't care anymore. they have engaged in at least since 2015 which we have chronicled on this great show.

>> great work, editor-in-chief. john solomon, thank you. here with more, let's give a warm welcome to the co-host judge jeanine pirro along with fox news contributor. >> how are you? >> don't mention the book. hello. >> i am not trying to be hyperbolic here. but i watched these hearings today and i am thinking, my goodness. what has happened to our country? these are people that are stepping out to make the agency, to return the fbi, which was once the premier law enforcement agency and bring it back to greatness by telling the truth about abuse of power. look at how they are treated. what does that say about christopher wray? what does that say about the

entire fbi? >> what it denotes is the fact that we are living in a time when we are taking down our republic. when our institutions of government are politicized, weaponize the right in front of us and there is no consequence. when there is no department of justice to get involved and prosecute, we are living in very dangerous times. these are treacherous watters. i say to myself, america has always survived. we are in really bad straits right now. the fact that one of the fbi whistleblowers was then sent out to another state and as soon as it got there moved his whole family out. they suspended him without pay and he was homeless. how angry are they with people who try to do the right thing? there is no consequence. john was right. >> kellyanne conway you are i believe the first person, woman, to ever win a presidential

campaign as the campaign chairman? is that the proper title? i don't believe we have equal justice under the law right now in this country. i don't think we have equal application over the laws. if you are a biden or clint that you are treated differently than a trump or a conservative or republican. look at all the people you worked with. predawn raids with fake news cnn cameras and frogmen. look at all the legal hurdles they put before donald trump as he now makes a move to run again for president. how does this country deal with this type of injustice? if we don't fix it, the constitution you might as well put it in the shredder and say goodbye. >> it is really sad. we didn't know what was going on during the 26 campaign. it turns out we know what we suspected. the democrats knew they had a lemon on their hands and hillary clinton.

they were getting increasingly worried that they would lose to donald trump. what did they do? did she go to wisconsin and michigan and connect with the people? no. they made sure the fix was in. they made sure the highest levels on the seventh floor of the fbi, everybody from comey to page to anelli and bruce. if you say too many acronyms are too many people, you cannot follow it. yes you can. you are smart, america. they will only get away with it so long as we are dumb and vulnerable as they think we are. >> we are a lone voice here. you have abc, nbc, cbs, two fake news channels. they have bullet surprises for lying. >> they should give it back and donate the money to crisis pregnancy centers and charities in my view. this is what is really important. this week when the report came out and it revealed so many things. they said what you said.

they said the clinton and trump campaigns and the two individuals were treated differently. justice has to be not just blind, but not by his. talking about christopher wray, i served with him in the trump administration. he promised during his confirmation hearing as he faced all the politicization, he promised to be nonpolitical and independent. >> he claims that he implemented all of michael horowitz's suggestions in terms of cleaning up the fbi. here we are in the 2020 election and what happened? they had hunter biden's laptop since december 2019. they verified the reporting of john solomon in the spring of 2020. we had fbi agents that were meeting weekly in the months leading up to the 2020 election pre-bunking the hunter biden laptop story by telling them directly you're likely going to be the victim of a misinformation campaign. it may be about hunter or joe biden. you better be ready.

they knew the laptop story was coming and they knew rudy giuliani had a copy of it. >> the problem is that that is election interference. that is a crime. it's not only a constitutional violation of the first amendment and the right of the press to be able to discuss things that are in the news. they literally interfered with the election. we know that by the polls that came out afterwards that indicated people would have changed their votes. how hard would it have been to verify the laptop? very easy. did you get an e-mail from hunter? are you a partner of hunter? soon if they could have looked at the picture of him and the. >> maybe they didn't recognize the. this is what they did. the irs has targeted conservatives. bank of america handing over the business records of anyone who was in dc on january 6th. the first thing i would do is take all of my money and credit cards out of bank of america.

they violated the constitution. >> let's go to 2020. if they got away with it in 2016 and 2020, what will stop them? >> lest we think the processes have been implemented, the same players were among the 51 who signed the letter that had all the earmarks and the dirty 51. we heard the same people. brennan, clapper and all these folks involved in not just getting a talking point to joe biden to be up against donald trump but also four years earlier. so many were involved in the russia collusion hoax. as a person who had to tell donald trump what a golden shower is, this is all a hoax from the beginning. >> you had to tell him that? >> i did. he is the world's biggest germophobe. i knew that wasn't true from the beginning. all these people are still around and have national security clearance. they have contracts at cnn and

msnbc. they need to be investigated. we don't have confidence in our institutions. if we are not the greatest place for law and order, we don't have the department of justice. then we don't have a country. they will never be prosecuted. >> judge, kelly and, appreciate it. coming up dianne feinstein and john fetterman and the american people your answers on very serious health concerns. congressman ronny jackson and charlie heard weigh in. what a great audience we have tonight. thank you.

the non-binary luggage sam brinton has once again been arrested this time as a fugitive from justice. kevin corke has the latest on it. what is he up to this time? >> reporter: very interesting story. it happens over and over. sam brinton is the former senior department department of energy official who you will recall had access to highly sensitive and classified material by virtue of his job. that is sam brinton. he has been arrested. he had been been a fugitive from justice according to maryland police and was finally picked up in rockville which is a suburb of the nation's capitol. the arrest overnight was related to the left, you guessed it, airport luggage. it's the third such criminal case involving brendan burke the latest arrest coming a month after brendan escaped jail time in two separate cases in minnesota and nevada involving luggage staff to. despite facing up to 15 years

behind bars in those cases. brendan has been seen on camera and online wearing various pieces of women's clothing allegedly stolen by brendan burke he made headlines late last year after being appointed to the addition by nuclear waste policy at the doe's office of nuclear energy as a non-binary gender fluid person. brinton had departed the agency in december. no word on a court date for the latest case as we get information i promised to bring it to. back to you. >> we appreciate it. i have to bring out my woke dictionary to keep up with you. thank you for the report. we turn now to another festering crisis from the democratic party. that is the health. pennsylvania senator john fetterman is in hot water today. why? they doctored his quotes to make them sound coherent on tuesday win he was not. his office admitted this

official excerpt from a recent hearing. quote, shouldn't you have a working requirement after we bail out your bank? republicans seam to be more preoccupied with snap requirements for hungry people than protecting taxpayers that have to bail out these banks. compare that to what he actually said. >> shouldn't you have a working requirement after we have billions in your bank? they seem preoccupied with snap and the requirements that works for hungry people, but not about protecting the taxpayers that will bail them out of whatever it does to the bank. >> they doctored all that. it gets worse. today he donned his signature hoodie. fetterman made these nonsensical comments about biden's looming default crisis. look at this. scene at the entire gop debt sealing negotiation is a sad charade.

that is exactly what is wrong in washington. we are playing with the livelihoods of millions just so the gop can turn the screws against the hungry americans. this is the whole reason why the 14th amendment exists. we need to be prepared to be using it. again, say that again. we must be prepared in order to use it. >> sadly, there might be a democratic democratic senator and even worse shape than fetterman. the new york times reporting that senator dianne feinstein's health declined more than previously known or thought after a month-long battle supposedly with shingles. herewith reaction is former white house position congressman ronny jackson and charlie herz. dr. jackson, good to see you. charlie, thank you. dr. jackson, i am not a doctor and don't play one on tv. i never gave out covid advice. i didn't give into the pressure to tell people what to do or not

do. i said to take it seriously and talk to their doctor and look at their health condition and make up their own minds. i will not play dr. here. however, it is obvious both of them have significant cognitive issues just like our president joe biden. >> you are absolutely right. you don't have to be a doctor at this point to see this. during my professional career i dealt with this on at least one occasion where i had a high ranking government official with these kinds of issues. there is a professional compassionate way to do this. you need to talk to friends and family and sit down and show the objective cognitive testing information and convince the family there is a problem and they don't need to be serving in that position. then you sit down with the patient and talk to them and convince them it is time to resign. the staff should be embarrassed. this is horrible they put this woman and her position. it's not even her fault anymore with senator feinstein. she has no clue what is going

on. she doesn't know she has been gone for three months evidenced by the statement the other day. she was legitimately confused. fetterman is an absolute disgrace. he cannot do the job. that's an important position. you are one of 100. you have to interview people and make statements. you have to start asking questions of witnesses. he cannot do any of this. he is completely incapable of doing the job he has been sent to do. we will get in trouble. you have him and feinstein and president biden. three people need to have that conversation with their doctor is an families. >> charlie, i would say if i had a family member, we will pick joe biden as an example in cognitive decline like the president. there are two things i would say to that family member and as loving a way as i possibly could. first of all, acknowledge your own granddaughter and stop ignoring her. the second thing i would say is

you are not fit to run for another term. i would say it strongly and say it firmly and lovingly. joe biden is there not anybody in this guy's life that pushes them to do the right thing on these issues? >> apparently not. it is really shocking that joe biden does not have anyone in his family that cares enough about him to sit him down and have that conversation. or john fetterman's family or dianne feinstein's family. what is disturbing to me about it is they are surrounded by family members that don't seem to care about or be concerned about their well-being. they are also surrounded by colleagues who are so thirsty for power who will do absolutely anything for power, to cling to power, that they will prop these people up and push them through the hallways in a wheelchair. dianne feinstein apparently has

no idea where she is or where she has been. you have john fetterman who is separate. such profound depression that he stopped eating and drinking and had to be hospitalized for it. yet the democratic party in this case are so tran hell-bent on clinging to power that they would rather put him through this. by the way, that hampers his ability to recover from a near deadly stroke in the first place by putting him out on the campaign trail. it is really, really sick. i don't know what the answer is. the two areas where people should be looking out for their best interest are their families as you pointed out. but people around them should realize power is not worth this. we have humans at state. >> clearly, if there was a road

or a relative of mine i would not allow them to do this. i would do everything in my power to prevent them from embarrassing themselves every day and doing something that physically, mentally, and cognitively are not up to. dr. ronny jackson, thank you. charlie herz, thank you. when we come back, adam schiff and his congenital lies. is pelosi putting her own interest above dianne feinstein's health. lindsey graham is in studio as we continue.

great crowd tonight. adam schiff, could his

congressional seat be in trouble? yesterday florida congresswoman anna paulina introduced an expulsion resolution saying that the russia collusion hoax and the lies cost american taxpayers millions. here is a short sample of his endless, unrelenting congenital lies and attempts to push his false flying narrative. >> there is ample evidence of collusion. i think there is direct evidence in the e-mails from the russians through their intermediary offering dirt on hillary clinton as part of what is described in riding as the russian government effort to help elect donald trump. unfortunately i cannot go into the evidence. >> do you have something you cannot reveal? >> i cannot reveal that. >> we haven't seen actual proof of cooperation and collusion. what am i missing here? >> you have to look at the pattern and chronology.

the russians offered help and the campaign excepted help. the russians gave help in the president made full use of that help. that is pretty. >> i can certainly say with confidence there is significant evidence of collusion between the campaign and russia. >> now you know why i say people are full of adam schiff. meanwhile california senator dianne feinstein's condition has been described as frightening. new reports suggest nancy pelosi is working hard to keep her in the senate through next november? why? to help adam schiff, her preferred candidate. here is south carolina senator lindsey graham. >> thank you. >> how are you? >> good. hello. >> you are friends with diane. >> i like diane. she is suffering and hurting and it is sad. >> isn't it really worse than

that? >> all i can say is that i have known diane for a long time and she is really hurting. let's talk about this. let's talk about 2024. let's talk about adam schiff. forget about the host. i wish she would get the 8:00 show. i wouldn't have to stay up so late. here is the deal, folks. this is a bunch of bs about trump and russia for four years. if you ask me what is going to happen, i cannot promise you anybody will be prosecuted. if you are waiting on adam schiff to admit anything about this being wrong you will die waiting. what he did with all of his buddies is made you believe that donald trump was a russian agent for four freaking years. what we know is now bs. how do we get back. we win the election. they wanted you to believe that president trump was a russian agent. there is collusion. between the department of

justice, the fbi and the media colluded to lie about donald trump for four years. >> let me ask you a process question about the election. i contend that democrats don't run campaigns anymore. they hide like biden, like fetterman and katie hobbs. they don't shake hands. they don't kiss babies. they don't dew selfies. they don't do town halls. all they do is run hundreds of millions of dollars of negative adds and then they also due something called legal ballot harvesting. republicans are running a campaign 1.0. democrats are at 15.0. i am arguing that the republican party better get their adam schiff together and better match and surpass with the democrats are doing on process. am i right or wrong? >> you are dead right. vote as early as you can. vote by mail. vote standing on your head. vote, vote, vote.

why don't they engage the public? what are they going to say? everything is going great. why don't they talk about the issues? they can't. you know why they don't talk about issues? they are all on the wrong side of the issues. they don't talk about the broken border because they can't. they don't talk about rampant crime because they don't want to. they don't want to talk about anything. the media hides the failures. folks, we have to vote. how do you meet them? show up and vote. here is why i am optimistic. the american people have had it with this. you don't have to live this way. you don't have to live with borders broken and 50% of the hotels in newark occupied by legal immigrants paid for by you. you don't have to live in a world where the crooks are more powerful than the kops park you don't have to live in a world where you have to mortgage your house to fill up your car. whether you like donald trump or not, i do. remember the world where we had secure borders? remember when the bad guys were afraid of us instead of us being

afraid of them? remember when we were energy independent? let me just say this. >> remember when vladimir putin and russia feared us? >> we will win this election if we talk about things that people care about. we need to prosecute the case. they don't know what they are doing. they will ruin your family. they will make this country venezuela. this is the last best chance to stop the march of socialism. you cannot secure the border. you can have crime on the run. you can take back the streets and grow your economy but you have to fire democrats. if you don't get that, god help us all. >> senator lindsey graham. straight ahead, they have backed down from plans to honor drag queen nuns. a famous hotdog truck is going rogue. tomi lahren and dagen mcdowell. stay with us as we continue. this is...

♪ this is iowa. we just haven't been properly introduced. say hello to the place where rolling hills meets low bills. where our fields, inside and out, are always growing. and where the fun is just getting started. this is iowa. so, when are you coming to see us? ♪

(swords clashing) -had enough? -no... arthritis. here. aspercreme arthritis. full prescription-strength? reduces inflammation? thank the gods. don't thank them too soon. kick pain in the aspercreme.

florida governor final push against a bulk insanity. he signed a series of bills to stop the mutilation of children, keeping kids out of drag shows, keeping classrooms focused on actual learning and keeping biological men out of women's bathrooms and sports. and of course the left and media mob are having full-blown meltdowns. they want florida to be more like california where the l.a. dodgers were about to honor an anti- catholic group of drag queens who pretended to be nuns. that invitation was ultimately rescinded after a widespread

backlash. here with reaction is out kick host tomi lahren and foxbusiness host mcdowell. this may sound a little strange. my first 26 years on the air talked about drag queens. now it's drag queen story hour and transition time and gender identity. how did this all of a sudden? we have congress members asking, can you define a woman for me? i never thought that would have been. >> this is all so telling that people are getting so agitated on the left that they cannot have grown adult men wearing dresses and makeup, dancing for children. the fact that that upsets the left is telling to me and quite disgusting. when we fight the culture war it is actually to me a disservice to the term culture war. it should not be a culture war. children should not be exposed to this. they cannot put up a argument as to why drag queen should be
