>> ♪ to be an american ♪ ♪ where at least i know i'm free ♪ >> steve: thank you to flagmakers for that beautiful american flag and those people that are waving it a lot of people that work on fox news program. >> brian: good job, lee. thanks so much. adop adoptavet.com. >> john: good morning. waiting on a decision on daniel penny any moment, the marine accused in that chokehold death. prosecutors already charged him and the grand jury backed him up. this was the subway incident here in new york. good morning, everybody. i'm bill hemmer. good day today. >> it does feel like a big day. >> bill: i'm ready. >> dana: i'm dana perino. this is "america's newsroom." grand jury is hearing evidence in the daniel penny case, decision whether to indict could come as early as today. >> bill: it's six weeks ago when that marine confronted neely on the new york city subway.

he was threatening passengers and acting erratically for some time. >> dana: he put him in a chokehold that led to his death. marine releasing a statement saying it was not his intention to kill him. >> some people say i was trying to choke him to death which is also not true. i was trying to restrain him. you can see in the video there's a clear rise and fall in his chest. i was trying to keep him on the ground until the police came. i was praying the police would come and take the situation over. >> dana: authorities waited more than a week to arrest penny prompting outrage on the left. the case igniting debate on race as well as mental health. >> bill: his family said he struggled with mental illness >> dana: hi, brian. >> good morning. look, after listening to evidence and key testimony since may 31st, fox news has learned

the grand jury could vote as early as today on whether to indict the marine veteran. a grand jury does not decide whether daniel penny is guilty or not guilty. rather, the question before them is whether there is legally sufficient evidence and reasonable cause, reasonable, to indict, to charge penny with second degree manslaughter for the chokehold death of jordan neely on board that new york city subway last month. grand juries are made up of 23 people. prosecutors need just 12 of them to vote yes and in the case against penny moves forward. if the grand jury votes no, the charge is dismissed. it was reported by other outlets that penny's attorneys were planning on allowing him to testify in front of a grand jury. but fox news has learned penny will not testify. look, it's rare for lawyers to put defendants in front of grand juries because they risk any statement made by the defendant could be used against them in a subsequent trial. prosecutors in the manhattan d.a.'s office believe they have sufficient evidence including

witness interviews and video footage to prove that penny recklessly caused the death of neely by continuing to hold neely in a chokehold even after he stopped moving. now, penny's lawyers released video clips of him defending himself make the case he acted in self-defense noting he and other passengers were scared by neely's threats that he wanted to kill and wasn't afraid to die on board the subway train. penny says he only meant to restrain neely and not kill him until police arrived. look, obviously, witnesses on the train, bill and dana, are key. there's one witness that says, look, i believe he was a hero but the man alberto vasquez said he thought that penny went too far but said the penny didn't do enough by not arriving on time. >> dana: any other video angles that are released after this? because we've only seen the one. >> bill: we don't know what other videos they have. we know the d.a. released the

statement saying we have plenty of evidence to back up our charge. it will be interesting to see. look, grand juries are run by prosecutors and they decide what witnesses and evidence. >> bill: two days ago on a subway at 4:30 in the afternoon, there was a man on our car and he was screaming. i don't even know what he was yelling about. this went on for several minutes. and no one could go anywhere and you thought immediately of this daniel penny circumstance. >> this is a grand jury in new york city. these 23 people, they take the subway. to think this happened in a vacuum, come on. people have their own experiences and they're bringing that into this jury room when they're deciding whether or not this charge is reasonable. >> bill: yeah. you might be right about that. >> dana: thanks. >> bill: stick around. might get an answer today. >> dana: more here now as indictments and investigations seem to be clouding the 2024 race for president. frontrunner donald trump is using his indictment to fire up his base while president biden is choosing to stay silent on those charges as senate

republicans push for a special counsel to investigate claims that he accepted a $5 million bribe. live from the white house, jillian turner. hi. >> hi, dana. president biden's g.o.p. critics in the senate are demanding that the attorney general appoint a special counsel to probe the biden family's finances. at least publicly, this group of senators is adding their voice to james comer in these accusations that the president was involved in a past bribery scheme. they write to the attorney general, take a look at this. under your watch, the department of justice has been weaponized to target president biden's top political opponent in advance of the 2024 election. meanwhile, your d.o.j. has blatantly ignored the credible allegations of president biden and his family's corruption. these accusations come despite house oversight chairman james comer's inability to produce any new evidence to substantiate his recent claims against the white house and d.o.j. that sparked this controversy.

the senators go on to say recent reports indicate barisma allegedly paid the then vice president biden $5 million to influence decisions, conduct that would clearly constitute bribery. they have stonewalled the oversight of this matter. asked about these allegations about fox news in the briefing room yesterday, they insisted yet again there is no substance to the accusations. take a listen. >> the white house aware of any recordings in which the president might be on tape speaking to an executive? >> the president spoke to this. i think he was shouted a question about this at the thursday press conference. and i'm just going to quote him and say it's malarkey. >> we're not expecting to hear from the president himself at all today. this evening, he's going to give closed door remarks at a dinner here in washington. he's not going to address this controversy. that dinner is coinciding or overlapping with the congressional ballgame so the president is not going to be

there tonight. dana and bill? >> dana: take me out to the ballgame indeed. >> bill: thank you. jonathan turley has been on tv for days. how are you doing, sir, good morning to you. share a few things with our viewers. new"new york post," a rain on h parade. pretty clever. trump arrested day before turning 77. today is his birthday. you've made the point consistently, trump has got to run the table. all 37 charges. in that indictment, there are conversations that apparently they had interviews with trump's attorneys. as a man of law, when it comes to attorney/client privilege, what's to prevent a judge from taking this whole case and just tossing it out? would you see that as possible or not? >> well, it is possible. the extent to which they relied upon president trump's former counsel to incriminate him was really quite astonishing, you know, what the prosecutors did is they argued there was a crime

fraud exception here that the attorney was involved in a crime and therefore, they could ask him about what would be confidential communications. when you read this indictment, it's pretty shocking the degree to which they're quoting his own counsel in order to make the case against him. that's going to be an appellate issue. and i think that even with all of the other troubling aspects of the indictment and there are troubling aspects, the photos, the audio tapes, all of that is troubling but so is the use of these statements from the attorneys. the court is going to have to review that. and i do have serious concerns about it. >> dana: jonathan, you wrote recently and i believe it was in "usa today" said it's time to crunch the numbers and the number is 90, 70, 12 and 1. what does those mean? >> that's just to help people out with this week's lottery numbers. the 90 is actually the rough period before an election that the d.o.j. begins to shut things

down. they have a policy not to take actions that could influence election. the first election, the primary is in february. that would put a trial in november or earlier. that's going to be very hard to do. 70 is the period for a speedy trial. but even though the prosecutors want a speedy trial in 70 days, that's their -- that is a protection for the defendant, not for the prosecutors. and they would be legally insane not to waive the speedy trial protection. that's going to make this even more difficult because it's going to push it further out towards that 90 day line. the 12 is you have to come up with 12 jurors that are going to be unbiassed. polls show half of americans believe this is a politically motivated case. that's going to be your pool. and then finally one is the most important number of all, trump has to run the tables.

he can't leave a count there. if he loses a single count, he's looking at anywhere between a maximum of 10 and 20 years. we can debate whether that's likely or not. but that's a sizable chunk of time for someone who is turning 77 today. but there's another problem for the prosecutors. just as trump can't lose one count, jack smith can't lose one juror and this is a case where you could have a hung jury and may be increasingly difficult to bring another case. >> bill: in the meantime, you wrote a piece this week about robert hur. who is robert hur? the one investigating president joe biden. in 30 seconds, why so quiet, professor? >> well, bill, the fact that you have to ask who is robert hur explains the problem. very few people know him except as the other special counsel. he is supposedly investigating joe biden. we have not heard anything, not a grand jury, not witnesses

being subpoenaed, coming out of that investigation. the concern i have is that what the president has said makes no sense. in no universe does his inadvertence claim hold together because these documents were removed from the white house, then divided and moved repeatedly. that shows something other than inadvertence. that shows intent by someone. so the question is has hur asked for an interview with biden? has he gotten a statement from biden? that was what they did in the trump investigations, people like michael flynn, they quickly got statements that could be used against them if they were lying or misrepresenting. we have not heard anything along those lines. >> bill: interesting. something a lot of people are not talking about. thanks for writing about it. nice to see you today, professor. thank you. we're going to buy a lottery ticket. so it's on you. >> dana: 90, 70, 12 and 1. >> bill: got that? >> dana: i got it.

i'm going to win. >> bill: homeland security committee will take a look at the secretary mayorkas' handling of the migrant crisis which is met with a lot of disdain from the republican colleagues. >> more of a cult than a political party at this point. their efforts to defend this man are truly beyond anything that i ever thought possible in our country. >> dana: yeah, if you saw "the five" last night i couldn't believe that happened. hillary clinton lambasting republicans as a cult. chris christie, his thoughts on those comments. >> bill: triumph over tragedy. six years after he was shot on a baseball diamond, our next guest is ready to hit the field for tonight's congressional baseball game. he is here in a moment to tell us why. if you're the spouse of a military veteran, i want you to know something.

>> bill: so the house homeland security committee will question secretary mayorkas today. the handling of the border crisis top of the hour. if you have seen these in the past, they get electric. the republican majority accuses him of dereliction of duty, something he stringently denies. for policies they say are driving the migrant surge.

mayorkas ignoring repeated questions from fox news yesterday about this very issue. check it out here. >> secretary mayorkas, are you proud of the job that you have done at the border? republicans say your handling of the border has been a dereliction of duty, do you agree with that? do you feel like president biden has given you the resources that you need to do an effective job to secure the border? >> good morning, how are you? >> are you worried about impeachment? >> bill: so it kind of went like that. political exposing the biden administration trying to cover up the matter. they write this. biden officials are publicly touting the lack of a migrant surge. privately, they're scared. the post title 42 border crisis has not happened. but biden officials are still holding their breath. and you're with bill malusian last week on this program. what did he tell you? >> dana: he said that the cartels have reassessed.

they knew exactly what we knew about title 42. they know it's a little bit more dangerous to get people across so they're recalibrating and they will likely be more coming across in july. it's not like things have slowed down. a quote from the article says this, there's absolutely a feeling that we can exhale now. that's what the biden people said. it's too fluid. the thing that bothers the members of congress that want to question him, whenever you ask him about the border, mayorkas says the border is closed. everything is fine. so on background, they tell you the truth. on the record, they don't. >> bill: these hearings can be stubborn. so we'll see how it goes at 10:00 a.m. eastern time. 40 minutes away from now. >> dana: white house is sugar coating high prices boasting that inflation has been on a steady decline. 4% inflation is still unreasonably high. lydia is joining us with the latest. >> the white house claimed that inflation is falling. but what's actually happening if

inflation is still increasing but at a slower pace, and that does not mean prices are falling especially since inflation is cumulative. consider how inflation first is compounded year over year. take, for example, cereal. staple in many households. prices are up 9.3% over a year ago. but a year ago, prices were up 12.8% before that. that means now, cereal prices remain more than 23% higher than two years ago. similar math for staples like butter and white bread. both still elevated in price. but not only are prices up, our wages are not increasing to keep up with increased prices. inflation has outpaced wage growth going back to april 2021 just months after biden took office. and economists say that's effectively a pay cut. >> most workers are, in fact, sort of worse off financially now than they were a year ago. and that is going to drain

consumers' wallets. it's going to drain their savings and ultimately, i think will hit and harm spending. >> so far, consumers continue to spend. but they're doing it on their credit cards more and more. and there's growing concern that is not sustainable as credit card interest rates now surpass 20%. dana? >> dana: all right, lydia, thank you for being here today. good to have you back in the city. >> bill: thanks, lydia. now, republicans and democrats trading capitol hill for the baseball diamond later tonight and our next guest is a volunteer coach for the republicans of the congressional baseball game. he's hoping to inspire because his recovery from a 2017 shooting is a testament for the power of bipartisanship and for baseball. here with us now, good morning to you, i don't know if a lot of people remember your story but on june 14, 2017, you were shot twice at a practice at 7:00 a.m. what do you remember from that day? >> yeah, thanks for having me

on. i really appreciate it. yeah, morning like any other. blue sky, getting ready for the game the day before our last practice, getting ready. i had just come off the mound. and was over by the first base dugout talking with coaches and players. and heard a loud bang. just thought maybe someone dropped construction equipment and next thing you heard is another loud bang and i looked to ryan thompson, former marine and yelled gun and knew from there, we had to get to safety. just everyone scattered and started running at that point to get to safety. >> dana: you were shot twice? >> yeah, shot once in the chest and once in the arm. and the arm is still recovering. don't have full function of my hand. but i still don't have full feeling. i'm still here coaching and playing on the sand lot helping the guys get ready for the game tonight. >> dana: what do you remember in the aftermath of that? where there was some coming together like this night, the congressional baseball game is one where republicans and democrats have a good time

together, putting politics aside. did you feel that in the aftermath of the shooting? >> oh, absolutely. i was in the i.c.u. for five days and hospital for five. i had both republican and democrat members and staff coming to see me and actually coming back to the hill a couple months later and just seeing staff and other folks that i work with and members, it was just a big comraderie. you go around the hill and meet with them and they want to talk about the baseball game. it's a lot of fun. and as you said, it's one of the last bipartisan things and a fun thing to do in d.c. wh whoever is in the area, come out tonight. we'll raise close to $2 million for charity. >> bill: fantastic. get that number higher. this has to be one of the dates on the calendar that you either, i don't know, do you look forward to it? or do you dread it? what is the feeling for you? >> i look forward, you know. shouldn't be here, and same as steve.

i was bleeding out that day. steve was bleeding in. both officers got hit and another coach, but, you know, everything happens for a reason. all the miracles that happen. everybody from the hospital at g.w. to my paramedics, i wouldn't be here today and i know steve and everyone else would say that. everything came together. and we're just happy to be here. and this game is a tribute to that. tribute to all the men and women in uniform, all the surgeons and doctors and nurses and my p.t. and everything that got us back together. and out here playing. you saw steve the next year, first hit. over to first base, that was picture. you can't write that. it's a hollywood moment. >> dana: we're glad you're here. matt mika, thank you so much for joining us. we'll see who wins tonight. i think you guys got a pretty good team. >> hopefully republicans, we'll have a good showing tonight. thank you. >> bill: thank you, matt. >> dana: speaking of another good team, say hello to the new champions of the national hockey league. the vegas golden knights winning

their first stanley cup in franchise history after beating the florida panthers in game five last night. mark stone was the star scoring three goals in the 9-3 victory. that's high, right? >> bill: yeah, yeah. lot of goals. >> dana: and the knights are one of the fastest teams to win the title in the nhl modern history doing it in just their sixth season. nine goals? >> bill: i told you that they were going to have an nhl team in las vegas 10 years ago. would you say they would be successful or not? >> dana: i'll tell you what i would have said yes, and it's not because i know anything about hockey. my good friend is friends with a woman who helped bring the team to vegas. and the incredible support that that city had for the team coming there, i just had a feeling that they were going to be superstars. here they are. six years later. >> bill: amazing. great for the league. great for the sport. they're thriving in warm weather climates. north carolina. tampa. >> dana: right. >> bill: doing great. >> dana: why is their season so

long? i feel like they end the stanley cup and then two weeks later, we're playing again. >> bill: feels like the playoffs. >> dana: not that i'm complaining. they gave me good content. >> bill: yes, they did. congratulations. golden knights. we have some incredible video from the front lines in ukraine. watch this now. this is a russian soldier in a trench pleading for his life to a drone operated by the ukrainian military above him. how this ended up coming up in a moment. chris christie loves the new york mets and bruce springsteen. now he wants to take down donald trump. can he find "glory days" away from the garden state? he's on deck and we'll talk to him about that. we start with sustainably grown cotton from the rich red soul of north alabama, here on our family farm. then we partner with family owned mills from maine

presidential nominee hillary clinton giving her take on republicans following donald trump's indictment making those comments during an interview with the save america podcast where in doubt she felt comfortable in front of the crowd. joining us, former new jersey governor and 2024 presidential candidate chris christie. great to have you. when i first heard that yesterday, i didn't believe it. they learned nothing. deplorables comment was arguably the thing that made most trump voters saying they're going to stick with him. they're still at it. >> she is the most tone deaf person i've ever seen get a major party nomination for president of the united states. she was the most unpopular presidential candidate on election day the year she was the nominee in 2016. and candidly, dana, she was so yesterday's news that all of us should look at it and say thank god we all worked as hard as we did to make sure she wasn't president of the united states in 2016. and she's out of it. and i don't think even democrats listen to her.

>> dana: how would you characterize the support of president trump on this indictment by republicans? >> i don't think the support is on the indictment. i think there's two ways to look at this at the same time. there's no doubt that all of us need to be concerned about how these choices get made. i did this for seven years and made the decisions about how people were going to be investigated, who got indicted and who didn't. and when see that she did not get indicted in 2016 and now donald trump has in 2023, of course republicans are going to be angry about that. we should have a conversation about that and how we reform d.o.j. to make it a place where they go ahead with no fear of favor, no prejudice, no partisanship. but i don't think that most republicans support the conduct that's detailed in that indictment. it's reckless. it's harmful to american national security. and it doesn't show the kind of judgment that you need to be an effective president during difficult times. >> bill: may be right about that. i'm looking at these polling numbers and he's crushing it. here's one from june 5th to the

9th. what is this? suffolk university. trump is at 48%. others who have him well over 50%. i saw one poll with him at 61% and you've gotten into this campaign saying you're going to be the biggest critic that donald trump has. i look at these numbers, do republican primary members want a critic? >> i think they want a campaign. those numbers exist at a time when there's been no campaign yet. this campaign will start in earnest in august. when the debates start, sponsored by the r.n.c. and folks in this country and in our party really engage. those numbers are obviously going to be there. he is, in essence, the incumbent in this race. and when you're running against an incumbent, that's where the incumbent is going to start. in the end, we're going to make a case that we've done nothing but lose since donald trump has been the leader of this party. nothing but lose. 2018, we lost the house. 2020, we lost the white house and the senate.

2022, we lost two more governorships, another senate seat and barely took the house of representatives against joe biden who is the most incompetent president i've seen since jimmy carter. that is a failure of leadership by donald trump. he picked most of those candidates who lost. and he's led us down a path of losing and what are the ramifications for that, bill, dana? record inflation. botched withdrawal from afghanistan. sending the country into an educational tailspin because we're excludeing parents from their children's education. >> bill: the border. >> and the border is ridiculous! >> bill: by the way, policies did much better on everything that you just mentioned. >> wait a second, bill. his policies did not do better at the border, ok. at the border, we had a diminution of what we're seeing now. remember what he promised in 2016? he was going to build a wall across the entire border in the first four years and mexico was going to pay for it. we got a wall that's about 1/4 of the way done and mexico can't

given us one peso yet. donald trump in 2016 was the guy that had no record so he couldn't be examined in a very specific way. he now said he was going to too that with immigration. by the way, congress for the first two years fully controlled by the republicans. not one change in the immigration laws. so of course, joe biden can come in -- >> bill: on the debate stage, he's going to say biden stopped it. you can go to the border today seeing piles of steel laying there in the arizona desert. >> bill, those piles of steel have been sitting there since donald trump was president. he didn't get it done. he couldn't convince the republican congress to fund the wall. he couldn't finish it. and he didn't change one immigration law. now, look, joe biden is an awful president. we all agree on that. he's terrible and he's made things worse. but why is joe biden sitting in the white house? he's sitting in the white house because he beat donald trump in 2020. another in a string of losing that donald trump has led us to. he's a three time loser and we don't want to have a four time

loser. >> dana: i would say one of the things that trump did that biden doesn't is support the border patrol, men and women on the ground there doing all that. today, the republicans are wondering about the possibility of impeaching secretary mayorkas for a lack of work on the border. in addition to that, other candidates including ron desantis, governor of florida is suggesting he wants to take on the d.o.j., reform the d.o.j. and f.b.i. in what they consider the weaponization of the justice department against the people. you worked in the justice department. do you think it needs a wholesale clearout at d.o.j. or f.b.i.? >> what we need is a strong attorney general that knows how to direct the leadership at d.o.j. and we haven't had one. look, donald trump didn't give us one. he gave us jeff sessions who the first thing he did was recuse himself from the russia investigation. and that and jeff sessions and his deputy attorney general appointed bob muller and sent us down that road. at the time, i was saying this is wrong. the attorney general shouldn't have recused. so let me tell you, eric holder

was a bad attorney general. jeff sessions was a bad attorney general and merrick garland is a bad attorney general. you know what we can do? we should get a great attorney general and i did this job as u.s. attorney in new jersey for seven years. and i know what it will take to get a good attorney general there who will lead and lead without fear or favor. >> bill: two more things. you haven't been to iowa. >> not yet. only been in the race a week, though. >> bill: i get it. if you don't do well in iowa or new hampshire, the argument you make against trump is going to fall flat? >> i guess i better quit today, bill. bottom line at this time of the race in 2015, donald trump was at 4%. that's why he was. in june of 2015, he was at 4%. at this time in 2007, barack obama was down by 37 points to hillary clinton. and guess what? those last two names are the last two presidents of the united states before joe biden. don't count me out yet. >> bill: i was suggesting you need an early victory in order

to stay in the race. >> everybody does, bill. you think ron desantis needs another victory? >> bill: when we get a chance to interview him, we'll ask him the same question. on the issues, where do you disagree? i looked at the abortion case, you favor allowing states to determine this. i think donald trump is on the same page as that. he was tough on china. you want to be tough on china. the wealthy would not receive social security checks. so maybe there's a distinction there. but if you're on stage with him, on august 23rd, all right, you have an opportunity in front of millions of american people to say here is how i will be different. >> he's a failed leader. we gave him a republican house, republican senate and he failed. he failed us, bill! and he failed us by losing the house, by losing the senate and by turning over the white house to joe biden and the most liberal administration and effective administration since

jimmy carter. is that the type of leadership we want? do we want someone who has governed in a blue state showing you can win independent voters, 61% of the voters for re-election in the state of new jersey as a republican and worked with the democratic legislature to get pension reform and gave more educational choice than any blue state in the country. more charter schools. and choice in the city of newark. and did that with a democratic legislature. is that what we need in washington or do we need donald trump whining, moaning and making everything about him? he didn't care about the american people, bill. he's putting himself first. and if you watch that speech yesterday at bedminister, where is he talking about america? and the american people and their concerns and their needs? this next administration if donald trump is president will be all about retribution for him personally. is that the show we want to show? is that the rerun of the apprentice that we want? it's not what i want. >> bill: thank you for your

time. >> dana: you have 10 weeks until the debate. >> thanks, sir. thanks. >> dana: thanks. still ahead, sheriff's helicopter spotting something unusual on the ground. and it prompted a dramatic police chase. veteran homeowners making a big car payment every month? car loans can be expensive and the payments high. consolidate that car loan into a newday home loan and save hundreds every month. suffering from sinus congestion, especially at night?

>> bill: nasa throwing a bit of cold water of what was thought to be a u.f.o. hovering over las vegas. we showed you that video reported to police as a non-human object. it was said to be at least eight feet tall. i don't know, what does it look like to you? eight feet? i don't know. >> dana: i guess, i mean, yeah. >> bill: police searched the area and didn't find anything and nasa says it was likely a small meteor. >> dana: which is still cool to see. >> bill: i agree with you. still makes the news. still looking out there. >> dana: former democratic chairman of the house intel committee is facing a censure vote and a potential $16 million fine. republicans say adam schiff repeatedly pushed falsehoods in the trump collusion case. this is unusual. you've covered capitol hill for a long time. i want to read to you -- actually, let's listen to mr. schiff himself. here's what he said. >> this is an attack for me telling the truth about donald trump. the problem with me is they think i'm effective. they don't go after people

they're not afraid of and so this is not only placating trump and once again showing their undying obedience to him, but going after someone that the former president thinks was singly effective in warning the country about him. >> dana: i think i could never be in congress because i have a lot of self-awareness. i don't think he has self-awareness. >> yeah, self-awareness is like kryptonite and so is shame, capacity of shame. >> dana: not that. >> no, shamelessness is the greatest superpower in politics. but -- and this is what's so frustrating about it. so he faces a censure. he could pay, i guess, you know, face $16 million in fines which, you know, i'll believe it when i see it. but it's going to help him politically! he's running for senate so he's going to make all these claims. i bet in the last 24 hours so in the next few days, if we take this up, he's going to probably

raise millions of dollars as this martyr who went after donald trump. but i also think that -- and on a very serious note, you know, if dana perino were in congress, you would take all of this stuff very, very seriously. you wouldn't go behind closed doors and come out and say, oh, my gosh! what i saw back there is so scary! you're not going to believe it. and actually have that all be a complete lie. and i wonder, without being partisan about it, it does seem like evil forces are trying to undermine the credibility of congress to the point where, you know, i cover chuck grassley for a long time. you can say a lot of things about a lot of republicans. you can't say that chuck grassley makes things up. when chuck grassley says something, you can take it to the bank. you can take his sentence and read the complete total truth of what he's saying. if he gets anything wrong, he comes out and corrects it. the evil forces are destroying

the credibility of people like chuck grassley. when chuck grassley says this is what we have behind closed doors, we can believe it. >> bill: it's all about the collusion case. he was on cable news, what, 242 times. he almost like -- another story here. i don't know what this is. i'm confused. i want you to help. >> we're all confused, apparently. >> bill: johns hopkins university says nonmen are attracted to nonmen, this is updated definition includes nonbinary people that may identify with the label. the moving target on defining sex in america continues. how does this contribute -- >> i'm proud to say that i'm a gender expert. i can solve all of your problems here. finally, johns hopkins is going back to the book of genesis and you have man and then you have

non-man and non-man got a rib from man and they figured it all out. so we can stop -- can we stop talking about it now? >> dana: i imagine johns hopkins p.r. department are say are you kidding me? we want a break on the summertime. >> exactly. yeah, we're teachers. we get to summarize it. >> dana: as you have told us, keep humor about it all. good to see you. >> bill: come back, ok. in moments now, republicans have a hearing accusing secretary mayorkas of dereliction of duty over the handling of the migrant crisis. take you there coming up in a moment here. new revelations about the origins of the covid pandemic. what really happened inside that infamous lab in china. at's been. many were shocked to learn they've been paying 22% on their credit card balances. and if payments were late, as much as 30%. that's over three times
