tanks for helping us break down the worst stories of the week and we will follow bill de blasio's dating career as we move forward. he's got something going on with a reality show. thank you for watching jesse watters prime time. have a great night. welcome to "fox news tonight". i am will cain. in a major decision handed down on independence day, louisiana u.s. district court judge terry doughty said the federal government violated the first amendment of the united states constitution by taking on the role of big brother. he wrote, during the covid-19 pandemic it. perhaps best characterized by widespread doubt and uncertainty, the united states government seems to have assumed a role similar to an orwellian

ministry of truth. as a result judge doty issued an injunction against all federal government employees from having contact with social media companies and discouraging and removing free speech. that means the cdc, the fbi, the doj, the white house. the judge specifically name checked white house spokeswoman karine jean-pierre, hhs secretary and surgeon general lévesque murphy. on your screen, is a list of prohibited activities for the feds which include meeting, e-mailing, flagging, calling, collaborating, urging, following up or issuing be on the lookout for censored content with social media. it is an absolutely stunning rebuke of the censorship deep state in the biden administration. it is a win for us free speech. as of this are the biden administration has appealed this judge's injunction.

now judges don't usually talk like this. they don't issue such scathing opinions or broad injunctions. why here? well, judge doty wrote if the allegations made by the plaintiffs are true the present case arguably involves the most massive attack against free speech in the united states history. a massive win today for free speech that did not go over so well with our enlightened elite who have taken up the cause of censorship. walter isaacs is a professor and author who has written biographies on einstein, kissinger and steve jobs among others, said this on msnbc. >> i think judge doty's decision goes too far. i clearly feel that in the end the decision will be refined somewhat because government has to have the right to have its own free speech to push back when they see things on social media that are dangerous. >> the government has to have its own free speech to push back on things that are dangerous on

social media? isaacs surely has enough honorary degrees to know that the government is not a private citizen and that their suggestions, their speech can carry the force of coercive law. but what is he talking about when he talks about something being dangerous? what is dangerous that must be censored? that was also answered today on msnbc. >> the judge makes exception for national security and criminal activity, but isn't there a fine line when it comes to national security specifically, especially when talking about elections and the fact that the full faith of the american public has in american elections could be undermined? could that be a national security threat? >> of course. so like terrorism? vaccine mix information? covid origins, mask complaints, rfk junior, donald results influencing an election outside of course if you are in the

approved thought. you know, dangerous. benjamin weingarten wrote in the new york post, imagine an america where the feds search actual speech police questioned the integrity of the vote. speech police who then take to the airwaves to attack those making the claims. if this sounds far-fetched consider that last summer a national security agency actually mold the idea of deploying a rapid response team to local jurisdictions to help election officials fend off miss, diss and mall information. mdm related threats. including communications. one fed called it fascinating. that dystopia was our reality. we know things to a new report from the house weaponization committee. the report reveals how an agency who was originally tasked with combating foreign cyber attacks and defending the grid came to

target americans tweets questioning mailing balloting. get this. the director jen jenn easterly has said cognitive infrastructure. what is infrastructure? everything is infrastructure. apparently including what you think. patrolling cognitive infrastructure is critical, thus justifying censoring dangerous speech. it truly is what was said by judge doty. orwellian. and so he said no more of this from the ministry of truth. >> what is your message to platforms like facebook? >> they are killing people. i mean, look, the only pandemic we have is among the unvaccinated. they are killing people. >> we are asking technology companies to help lift up the voices of credible health authorities. it's also why they have to do more to reduce the

misinformation that is out there so that the true voices of experts can shine. >> facebook should provide publicly and transparent data on the reach of covid-19 covid vaccine misinformation. not just engagement, but the reach of the misinformation. >> it is understandable, meaning you don't excuse it but you can conceive why. the democrat party and permanent washington are so antagonistic to free speech. they want no challenge to their power. but it's at least slightly surprising that the press is so anti- press. let me show you something from the monday train edition of the new york times and an article titled gop threaten spy agency surveillance tool. the article about them fighting section 702 of the foreign surveillance intelligence act. section 702 allows for warrantless surveillance of foreign targets. it was originally intended as a tool in the war on terror. but if those foreign targets in

some way allegedly connect to an american, well, we are off and running. and boy have we run. seven oh two has been used against blm writers, protesters and of course through carter page to target donald trump. congressman jim jordan of ohio has said there is no way we are going to reauthorize that in it's current form, no possible way. it is interesting at one time democrats, the left and the media looked at federal government surveillance skeptically, but now the new york times wrote on monday an intensive drive-by right-wing republicans in congress to vilify the fbi would charges of political bias has imperiled a program allowing spy agencies to conduct warrantless surveillance on foreign targets. sapping support for a premier intelligence tool and amplifying demands for stricter limits. the new york times, champion of spying on americans. you see, republicans had a

change of heart on 702 and became champions for free speech because they became the target for illegal surveillance and censorship. the press and democrats who once championed themselves as protectors of free speech also had a change of heart on surveillance and censorship. because they liked the republicans became the target of surveillance and censorship. in the end, this entire story, it's not about free speech. it's not about speech at all. it is only about and has always been only about control and power. that is i guess unless a judge in louisiana can really stop big brother. journalist michael shellenberger joins us now. it's always great to see you. you have seen the judge's opinion. you are deep into this. you have reported extensively on the government surveillance programs. what do you think? was this a great victory for free speech? >> absolutely. it was a great fourth of july to get this 155 page ruling.

it's important to point out that judges don't normally issue rulings on a federal holiday. the judges i think clearly cannot prove it but clearly making a statement for freedom of speech. as you just described, you can see by the people protesting it who is really on the side of freedom of speech. at this point it is really more republicans than democrats and some true liberals, i would say, who still understand that at the heart of what liberalism used to be with freedom of speech. it's an amazing ruling. the key is there is a long way to go. it's inevitable the supreme court will take a hearing on this and may end up making a ruling about it. but with the document and the ruling by the judge, he explains very clearly that the white house was directly threatening the existence of social media companies particularly this thing on section 230 which was the license to exist. they were threatening that and threatening to take it away if

the social media companies did not censor true information including about vaccine side effects. the true and accurate information that is in the public interest. a lot can be said about it. it's a huge victory for now. >> i want to ask you this. this is a victory when it comes to government influence on free speech. beyond simply government coercion the united states has a unique cultural embrace of freedom of speech. one of the things i am concerned about is either because of the government influence or because big tech just does so on their own account. we now have a culture of censorship beyond government employees. what i am concerned about is regardless of the government's influence big tech will continue to censor. you've been inside these companies reporting as we said extensively. do you think big tech, even without government influence, will continue to censor or embrace the culture of free speech? >> first of all, you are

absolutely right. the censorship industrial complex is sort of the government manifestation of what we used to call cancel culture or political correctness or woke is. they clearly worked together. 99% of the donations from employees from before elon musk or democrats. it was a good culture. they were more than happy to oblige fbi and government demands for censorship. the key is that congress has to mandate transparency by big tech. they have to got firing people who were involved in the censorship so we can finally restore our tradition of free speech. >> michael shellenberger, always great to talk to. thank you for your reporting. >> thanks good to be with you. >> the final ruling is yet to come, but there is no disputing the evidence against the biden administration is and unprecedented. there is never been this level of documentation to censor americans between the executive branch and some powerful tech companies in the world. jonathan turley is a law professor and a legal scholar and joins us to assess the legal

ramifications of this case. great to see you tonight. as we have mentioned, the biden administration is already initiated or said it will soon appeal this decision. let's talk about what happens in the meantime. this judge's injunction carries the day until the appeal is hard. isn't that correct? his extensive list of you shall not to the federal government when it comes to controlling speech and big tech, that's the law of the land and controlling government censorship. >> yeah, that's supposed to be how it works. it's very hard to enforce. the injunction aspect of the ruling is likely to have a tough going on the fifth circuit, which is previously pushed back on this court. but what a lot of people are focusing on and the injunction are missing what came before it. in order to issue an injunction the court had to find that there was a substantial likelihood of prevailing on the merits. what are the merits? the court said the united states government has the largest

censorship program in our history. six months ago i testified on that system before the house. and all of us have testified for the further investigation of that system were attacked by the democratic members. they insisted, well, that is just your opinion. there is no facts to support it. even though we would point to the twitter files they say those aren't facts either. here's a fact. a judge just issued 155 page opinion. by the way, those 155 pages only deal with a fraction of the censorship system. michael and others have detailed. >> really quickly, i want to ask you this. we will see how it plays out in the appellate courts, but if this injunction is supposed to hold the day as you mention, you said its difficult to enforce. if tomorrow karine jean-pierre goes to the white house podium and begins to hector and

threatened big tech companies how is she punished? how is the injunction stop her or president biden or the cdc from doing so? >> yeah, it is very hard to enforce because it's hard to see the violations. in fact the only reason we know about the censorship system is because twitter was purchased by elon musk. he turned over the files. otherwise we wouldn't have known any of this. >> yeah. it seems like a victory. i know it's always a bigger war when we win the battles, but it is a victory for free speech. we appreciate you being with us. >> thanks, will. cocaine was found at the white house. the administration is not saying much other than letting us know joe and hunter definitely were not there when it was found. so where did it come from? miranda divine is next.

the secret service had to evacuate the white house on sunday evening after discovering cocaine in the west wing. how did the blow get there? you are not allowed to ask. you cannot implied the cocaine was hunter biden's even though

he is a known crack addict. is there another likely suspect? how many crackheads do you have in the white house? the media made light of the story. >> i don't want to hear from president biden. i would like to hear from one person in particular. that build that used to sit on capitol hill from schoolhouse rock. >> this is so unusual. you and i have covered the white house for years. i can't even fathom anything like this having been found in the west wing. i go back to the 70s at the white house. this is pretty wild. >> i would like a blow-by-blow of who is responsible for this. >> too soon. >> no one was injured as far as we know and it's an illicit drug at the white house. why can't you have a bit of fun with it? >> can you imagine if the white house was occupied by donald trump? this white house knows it is

bad. biden's main flak karine jean-pierre tried to claim the cocaine was found in a heavily trafficked area. >> the one thing that i can share that i will share a little bit more information. as you know, the president and the first lady and their family were not here this weekend as you all reported on this and as you also know they left on friday and returned just yesterday. where this was discovered is a heavily traveled area where people visit the west wing. there is the area of the west wing where it is highly traveled and that is what happens. people come through this particular area that is highly traveled. i will not get into specifics. we have west wing tours that occur here on campus. they happen in this particular passed couple days on friday and saturday and sunday. >> except it wasn't found in a heavily trafficked area. it was found in the west wing. the median and administration

have made a big point about it being bound when the bidens were not at the white house. that kind of misses the point. what matters is when it was lost. wasn't lost when they were at the white house? who's cocaine was it? miranda divine is a new york post columnist and joins us now. miranda, this is not an unanswerable question. who dropped the coke in the white house? surely there is some cameras. surely there is fingerprints. surely we can find out? >> exactly. really, i think it is beholden on the secret service which karine jean-pierre assures us is conducting an investigation. they need to tell the american people to rule out the obvious suspects and to tell the american people that they have discovered who it was an whoever that person is has been dealt

with. this is an extraordinary situation. i think you saw from the questioning of the white house press secretary today that it is actually treated seriously across the board. there were five or six questions asking if this illegal substance somehow managed to get through the very heavy security around the white house, how do we know that some other substance like anthrax or some lethal poison has not found its way to the white house? in fact, when the secret service found that white powder and they called the hazmat team. the hazmat team sent several trucks that were all dressed up. they took it extremely seriously they checked and found that preliminary tests with a handheld device that it was cocaine, white powder cocaine. but when they came out the dispatch shows that they had to

get hosed off. it was treated seriously. it should be treated seriously by the white house in their disclosures to the american public. >> i am nervous, miranda, that this will go the same way of the supreme court leaker, the january 6 the bomber. it will find its way into the unsolved mysteries. as you point out, this should be easily solvable and is kind of a big deal. i am glad finally that the press chose to take something seriously. not potential corruption at the highest level of the white house, but coke in the west wing. we found the bar. miranda, we always take you seriously. thank you so much. >> thanks, will. robert f. kennedy jr. residential run is driving liberals nuts. the atlanta headline titled there is no such thing as an rfk voter. nevermind the fact that rfk junior is antiwar, pro- free-speech, anticorruption. his campaign is working

according to a recent poll. he is supported by 31% of eligible voters who backed joe biden in 2020. kevin is a former biden campaign surrogate and he joins us now. great to have you on the program. i am a little taken aback, i guess, maybe naïvely that the response from most of the democratic party has been to either censor, ignore or dismiss robert f. kennedy jr. despite how he pulls and despite the issues that he champions. >> it is good to be with you. that's the case of any incumbent president whether it be republican or democrat to put down any kind of primary challenge that we are seeing from someone like robert f. kennedy jr. you saw in 2020 when donald trump was challenged by two former republican members of congress, a former republican governor of massachusetts. they did not want to acknowledge the presence in the race at all. there were calls for debate and the trump team said we are not going to do that are entertain that. you are saying the same dynamic

play out on the left with an incumbent of the democratic side. >> you are saying it is par for the course for an incumbent to ignore a rival challenger and a reelection cycle. but let me ask you about the substance of rfk junior. i find it fascinating that he is dismissed as a quack among most of the left. he is championing issues, how far do i have to go back. five? 10 years? that seems to be central to the democratic party platform. like for example being skeptical of international wars. that is nacho biden. that is rfk. being concerned about the power and influence of big pharma and big corporations is nacho biden. that is rfk. been concerned about free speech is nacho biden. that is rfk. why make fun of the man who champions you're previously held big positions? >> you make sum interesting points. i think he is an interesting combination of both right right-wing held views and left

wing held views. as he is campaigning across the country he is talking about sealing the border with mexico. he is talking about obviously problems with vaccines in his estimation in this country. he's talking about pulling support from ukraine. all issues that are more aligned on the right. he is also talking about toxins in water and air. serious concerns on the left. he is an interesting general election candidate based on those issues. some of the issues you just pointed out. winning a democratic primary is not against an incumbent democrat of his own party. it's not a successful operation for bobby kennedy jr. >> i guess in a way what you did is lay out the movement we have seen from the democratic party. dealing or caring about illegal immigration and the sanctity of the border, questioning whether or not we should go to war in various places across the world, wondering about mandated medicines. i didn't think those were right-wing issues. i thought those were commonsense centrist issues in america.

but the democrats see that as right wing and that is why they dismiss rfk. i appreciate having the back-and-forth conversation with you tonight. >> always a pleasure. have a good one. my old friend stephen a. smith has been sounding off on the supreme court ending affirmative action. he will be here, next. our ears connect us to the moments that matter. give them the nutrients they need with lipo. it's formulated with ingredients clinically shown to protect your ears from dizziness, ear ringing, and even hearing loss. never miss a moment with lipo flavonoid.

that it is illegal to consider race in college admissions. most americans agree with last week's decision. a poll found that 70% of americans oppose race being used as a factor in admissions. even 60% of democrats oppose race as a factor according to a new york times poll. but there was a backlash to the ruling. my old friend stephen a. smith had a lot to say about the decision. >> here is where i get ticked off. i get ticked off that white america gets to sit back and act

like they are innocent in all of the things that have been transpiring to the point were it ignited their fear or to such a degree that they felt the need to oppose such things. the inequities that have taken place in this country against minority communities. who exacted that? who displayed that? who exercise those actions? who are the instigators and perpetrators of all of that? who was that exactly? wasn't that white america? i think it was. >> stephen a. smith the host of the stephen a. smith show and first take on espn joins us now. great to see you, man. to hack what is going on, buddy? >> let me go right at that clip and just start right there. >> feel free. let's go. >> the problem is, stephen a., in truth when it comes to justice there is no such thing as black america and white america. there are only individuals. when you assign culpability to

individuals of the past to individuals of today, there is simply nothing to hold anyone accountable. why do i pay the price for the sins of the past and you reap the benefits in the case of affirmative action. i'm not saying you had affirmative action but you as a black man would reap the benefits of affirmative action for the sins committed on someone of the past. we are only in the end individuals. >> first of all, i get where you are coming from and i can understand how you would look at it that way. you have to respect the fact that i have a different cultural background and different experience and i might feel differently about it. i will tell you this. there are so many people and people supportive of the supreme court's latest ruling of the mindset that blacks are getting an unfair advantage. what black people would contend to you that it wasn't an unfair advantage. remember race was a consideration, one of many considerations that would be taken into the equation when you talk about college admissions and i think alters me diversity,

equity and inclusion when you think about some of the things that have taken place in corporate america. but it wasn't that. it was an effort to even the playing skills to some degree because of the iniquities exacted against the african-american community in this country. it wasn't about giving them an advantage. it was highlighting the fact they were discriminating meaning we were discriminated against at that particular moment in time. that's why the policy was instituted to begin with. when folks are walking around acting as if there is a reason to celebrate and i am looking at folks that are feeling like somehow, someway they have been shortchanged. my mentality is wait a minute. the policies were implemented to begin with because the african-american community was being shortchanged and they were being denied the same privileges or the same opportunities that were accorded to white folks. >> what i would say to that is you do not solve past discrimination by present or future discrimination. there were injustices under the banner of affirmative action is inflicted on individuals white

or asian american. the situation at harvard an african-american student in the top 50% of his academic class had just as good a chance as an asian student or white student in the top 10% of their class. is that just discrimination? >> no. by the way, i am sure you did listen to my podcast and i appreciate you doing so. if you recall i did not say that it wasn't discrimination. i acknowledge the fact. you did not hear me speak against anyone from the asian community that brought the case to the justices. i understood where they were coming from. my argument was against folks in white america that would say even presidential candidate donald trump talking about now we get back to a merit society based on merit. ignoring what affirmative action policies into play to begin with. we have people in white america acting as if they don't know how it came about.

somebody from the asian or latino community had an issue and felt that they were denied an opportunity. that's a different argument than white america coming up and saying that we don't feel we have been treated fairly in all of this. when the unfairness was exacted by white folks in america. >> that is where we go full-circle and get stuck in the mud. i will refer to talking about individuals. individuals not white or asian american can be the victims. my due want to ask you a sincere question. in the 1970s when the program of affirmative action was implemented, at that time the supreme court of the united states said there would be a day when there were no longer be required. when they re-upped it in 2003 they anticipated another 25 years of affirmative action. we came just short of that. it has been 22 here since that decision was made by the supreme court. even if you are making up for passed sins, when does it come to an end?

when do we stop discriminating on the basis of race? >> when people in positions of power have proven that they are exercising fairness come hell or high water. it is really that simple. i am glad you asked that question. again, when you are looking at numbers, for example. why didn't yale in the 70s sit up and say we want 10% of our student populists to be made up of minorities. they knew without those rules and those laws in place they didn't anticipate that would be allowed. in today's corporate america you have folks, black folks being paid less than white folks. black women being paid less than white women. you have white women honestly deserving a lot of opportunities that they richly deserved. they are getting paid less than white men. everywhere you turn there is a level of unfairness that is being exercise. the only thing that changes that is the law as opposed to somebody's conscience. >> your describing those differences to race when there are so many contribute impactors

as to why corporate america may look a certain way. we both love sports and debate in sports. i could play turnabout is fair play and say why aren't there more white nba players. that must be discrimination. we both know the answer is because merit has dictated who is in the nba. whatever is happening in society and i would never sit here and say every decision made is purely based upon merit. but we aspire to that. we aspire to that. i think the supreme court's decision has been a big leap forward and getting to where we judge things based upon merit. >> you would say that and i would say to you that the power structure in the united states of america is still predominantly white. as a result what white america is asking you to do is ultimately to trust that your heart is going to be in the right place. there are a plethora of people throughout minority communities in this country who would challenge that and say know, we don't necessarily believe that to be the case which is why we need laws to help us. when you bring up sports and we have argued back and forth

talking about the world of sports and some of the iniquities that have taken place. you can bring up the nba for example. i can point to the meritocracy because i see the performance on the court just as much as you do. this isn't some proverbial glass ceiling. we are literally witnessing it. when we look at the nfl, the rooney rule was still in existence. that's the number one professional sports league in the country. why is the rooney rule still in existence? we have seen one opportunity after another we are capable, qualified black individuals were bypassed because of the system that was in place primarily by white individuals who asked us to trust them, but to prove they weren't worthy of the trust they requested. those are the kinds of challenges we have to deal with as a country and there is no way around it. the only way to make it better is people like yourself and myself talking about it honestly and openly. >> i agree. i think the mistake we often make where we find our debate is where we ascribe all those differences to the big factor

bin race. listen, the next time we are together i want to have a conversation about clarence thomas. he is one of the most amazing black men in the history of the united states of america. i do not feel like you are giving him sufficient credit. we will get there. we don't have to do it now. before we go, let's say too many people in america. before we go, let's stay on the note of sports. who wins in the fight. you have analyzed fights. elon musk or mark zuckerberg? >> man, that's a tough one. elon musk just looks like a weird individual. he is just different. he's a big dude, though. he is considerably bigger than mark zuckerberg. mark zuckerberg is a small guy. they say he has been studying brazilian jujitsu. and in the case of elon musk, all he said as i will be a big body and lay on him and maneuvered the move called the walrus where i lay on him and do

nothing. if i have to bet on one or the other i would bet on the jujitsu artist. but elon musk is a big dude. if he falls on mark zuckerberg, who knows? i don't know. i will go with mark zuckerberg, the underdog. >> we have the tail of the tape on the screen. i will be real. elon musk is 6'1" and doesn't look like 187. he looks about 210 paragraph that would be an advantage. i will go with mark zuckerberg as well. hispanic that is what i am doing. this is not boxing. if it was boxing i would pick elon musk. a martial artist, you have to change. >> always love it, even and because we disagree. thank you stephen a. smith. >> that's right. my pleasure. the squad in ben and jerry celebrating the 4th of july by attacking america. for some reason what used to be radical is now totally acceptable.

you know some on the left use the 4th of july to remind us that they hate america. i truly debated whether to do this segment and give it oxygen. but it is becoming more common. congresswoman cori bush attacked our founding on twitter riding the declaration of independence was written by enslavers and didn't recognize black people as human. today is a great day to demand reparations now. ben and jerry's use the holiday to criticize the united states for existing. they wrote, quote, we exist on stolen indigenous land. we even know this that ben & jerry's headquarters sits on land that once belonged to several native american tribes. this hatred of america as i said is becoming more in mainstream. it used to be something that was relegated to crazy college campuses. and now it's everywhere. but instead of giving it any more oxygen, the way i thought we should respond tonight was to talk to someone who has dedicated their life to serving and loving this country.

to talking to a former navy s.e.a.l. and good friend of mine bill brown. great to see you, man. you know i have had the pleasure of being around you on several occasions now. one thing i know about you, which anyone's who knows you did eight years as a navy s.e.a.l. it is how much you love america. why? >> because our nation is the only nation ever founded on an ideals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happyness and the quality that is transcribed in the declaration of independence and constitution. look at our history. we took great strides to live up to that. you had a civil war where we lost hundreds of thousands of americans. we had great leaders like martin luther king jr. when i look at his message about judging a person by the content of their character and by their actions. i think we have had some struggles, but we have continuously had a path to equality and living up to those

values in the constitution and declaration of independence. >> because you believe in those ideals so deeply you have dedicated your life to literally defending america. i had the chance to hang out with you on several occasions including this morning. you and i got up at roughly 6:0m across the hudson river from new jersey past the statue of liberty to ellis island all the way over to manhattan. you and i did this because in one month we will do it with a whole bunch of navy seals raising money for the navy s.e.a.l. foundation, the new york city navy s.e.a.l. swim. i will tell the audience this. when we swam this morning past the statue of liberty i watch do, a man who has taken bullets and shot bullets in defensive this country look up at the statue of liberty with absolute reverence as we swam underneath her. your love for this country is clear and the swim is an awesome way to honor america. >> thank you so much. it brings together great american navy seals, police

officers, firefighters, veterans, first responders. we swam by the statue of liberty, the torch of freedom, ellis island. how many great american families have came through there to celebrate our nation's diversity and everybody who came to the country seeking a better life. thank you for promoting this event and thank you so much for fox. very grateful. >> 3-mile swim, 300 push-ups, 66 pull-ups. you can at least contribute on my instagram. there is the link to the navy s.e.a.l. foundation. find a way to give back to new york city seals. we are always in debt. thank you. it is an honor. kamala harris does it again. the biden administration tries to ban gas stoves she posted a picture cooking on a gas told. more hypocrisy, next.

asked those are the latest target on the left aussie climate crusade. unless you are kamala harris. she had no shame posting this photo of herself using a gas grill on the 4th of july. to make matters worse, she was eating meat. michelle tafoya is a former sideline reporter and host of the sideline sandy podcast. it is great to see you. i am confused. i don't understand. i thought we were phasing out gas stoves. i thought meat was a problem. i thought all of this was a threat to the climate. and here i see kamala harris at the grill. >> this is another rule for you and not for me. peat buttigieg has been photographed. joe biden, stacey abrams and many democrats who claim that greenhouse gases or gas from our stoves will cause asthma and other things. they are cooking with them. elizabeth warren is another. i can go on and on. i am wondering who thought posting this would be a smart idea?

who snapped the photo not thinking should we really be snapping this photo and posting it? it's a little bit of two things. the hypocrisy, number one, but the foolishness of letting this get out of your hands. >> i imagine there or those out there that might disagree with you or me and say you are being tickey tack. you are being tickey tack. let her live her life. but she is not letting us live our life. she is part of the administration that wants to take those privileges, conveniences and luxuries in that picture away from the rest of us. i don't know how you explain hypocrisy. she doesn't mean it in the first place or doesn't believe the climate science? >> again, i think its easy for them to talk about climate and talk about everybody else changing habits like john kerry flying in his private jet but telling everyone else to drive electric cars. it's major hypocrisy and i'm glad it's getting coverage. it needs more coverage. we need to see more and more of this. again, it is fostering a lack of

trust among voters and people who are on the outside. they have earned it. >> from gavin newsom to kamala harris to joe biden, hypocrisy is thick. michelle tafoya, it's always great to see you. thank you so much. we have enjoyed being with you tonight. have a great evening. i will be back again tomorrow night. for now, jason chaffetz is in for sean hannity tonight. jason? will, thank you so much. great show. always enjoy seeing you and appreciate it. good evening and welcome to the special edition of "hannity". i am jason chaffetz in for sean and we begin tonight with a truly unbelievable report. cocaine has been found in the west wing of the white house. the secret service has confirmed to fox news that a powdery white substance discovered in the west wing offices on sunday was in fact cocaine. a full investigation is supposedly under way. so how did this happen? cocaine in the white white

house?
