[cheers] >> lawrence: they love him. >> brian: let's go washington. a classified fbi document is

detailing damning claims by an informant that alleges that president biden, when he was vice president, was involved in a multi million dollars international bribery scheme. >> lawrence: this is insane but the white house is strongly denying the claims. >> ainsley: lucas tomlinson is here to breaker it all down for us. lucas? >> good morning, lawrence, ainsley and brian. explosive allegation from iowa senator chuck grassley releasing an fbi informant document alleging a $10 million bribery scheme against president biden and his son hunter who is a board member of the ukrainian energy company burisma the informant said, quote: don't worry, hunter will take care of all of those issues through his dad. in 2016, the informant met with krzyzewski the head of burisma after biden had made statement about victor shokin being corrupt and that he should be removed from was o. the informant secretary of state krzyzewski, quote: didn't want to pay the bidens and he was pushed to pay them. he has many text messages and

recordings that show he was coerced to make payments. asked why krzyzewski wouldn't hire someone with more experience in the oil and gas market, the informant said krzyzewski replied, quote: hunter biden was stupid. my dog was smarter. burisma hired hunter to protect us through his dad from all kinds of problems. grassley says the informant is an ukrainian american who has been a trusted highly credible fbi source for over a decade and had been paid six figures, quote. the fbi says releasing this information puts the safety of the confidential source at risk. the white house responding to the release of this information, quote: it is remarkable that congressional republicans in their eagerness to go after president biden, regardless of the truth, continue to push claims that have been debunked for years. the house oversight committee chairman james comer says this fbi document backs up his committee's investigation that the biden family's business

dealings. >> brian: 17 tapes, 15 with hunter, two with joe. >> ainsley: recordings. >> brian: william barr indicated you know what? they might be in ukraine. they heard about this. any word on where they might be or is there anyone pursuing it? >> certainly no word right now. immediately, brian, but certainly that could be the next shoe to drop. and democrats want to see more evidence, perhaps this could be the evidence. >> ainsley: all right. so the informant told the head of -- said to the fbi the head of burisma said he had a total of 17 recordings involving the bidens. two of the recordings including joe biden and the remaining 15 recordings only included hubbard. this is old information. we did know that but to your question, brian, excellent question. we want to hear those recordings. >> lawrence: yep. >> ainsley: if we do, that proves that joe biden was talking with burisma he was involved in his son's business dealings. >> brian: if they are in ukraine -- thanks, lucas. if there is in ukraine know noe way giving them up. it's not in their best interest

have president biden there. if you release anything that makes him look bad, you are jeopardizing their war effort. >> lawrence: the big take away, also, is we as americans have been wondering how were the bidens even involved in this? hunter biden has no experience. >> ainsley: even said that. they called him an idiot. >> lawrence: when you look at the unclassified version. they talk about the dog being smarter than him. but this is the quote that really got me. they said because -- they said any payment to the bidens would complicate matters and burisma should hire some normal u.s. oil and gas advisers because the bidens have no experience with this business sector. so, i mean, for all of the talk of, oh, hunter is a great businessman and all of that, even the people that they were doing business with said they have no experience with this. >> ainsley: but money talks, right? if he has connections? his dad was vice president at the time. you have that connection and they are saying they hired hunter biden to protect us through his dad from all kinds of problems. don't worry, hunter will take

care of all of these issues through his dad, according to this informant. >> brian: just to add to this, the ceo a krzyzewski laughed ats informant the number of 50,000. he said not because of the small amount because they suggested 50,000 to have a lawyer represent you with this burisma against the judge that was going to burisma why don't you hire a lawyer for 50,000. he laughed not because the small amount the number 5. 5 million to pay one biden and 5 million to pay another. >> ainsley: 10 million? >> brian: i don't know. give me a second well could be jim, maybe, that's devon archer sitting there devon archer could be front and center next week. so we have the irs last week. the business people two years ago led by tony bobulinski and now the other people that were loyal to the bidens finding themselves going to jail.

devon archer come forward and tell his side of the story about the role that joe played in this whole event. >> ainsley: maybe that's why these four republicans sent this letter to white house counsel, their office, because they are trying to get some clarification on what was joe's involvement. because the president has said over and over, he had no knowledge of his son's business dealings and he never discussed business with hunter. then at the end of june, june 29th, the white house spokesperson from the white house spokesman's office released this comment as we have said many times before the president was not in business with his son. they are like no, that's not what you've said over and over. you said you had no knowledge, you never discussed. >> brian: we can play the tapes. meanwhile laura dehmlow is a section chief of the fbi's fbi task force recollected in a closed door deposition monday said this: somebody from twitter essentially asked -- i should back this up and clarify this. so it turns out the fbi knew right away when the "new york

post" story hit that the laptop was real and it was all a reuse. all election play. here is what she went on to say. somebody from twitter essentially asked whether the laptop was real. and one of the fbi folks who was on the call did confirm, yes, it was. before another participant jumped in and said no further comment. now we know since this time, as early as the fall of 2019, the fbi knew what they had in their possession dropped off to them by the computer repair shop owner was authentic. so, we all know that. but now we found out in real time when this story hits from a journalist from the "new york post," that he knew it was real then. >> ainsley: they verified it on october 14th, 2020 just hours after the post published the story. >> steve: this goes back to the story. as we continue to uncover what happened, fox has been covering this for years. the other mainstream media outlets are new to the party of

this and they are still not covering it as much. when it starts to get overcomplicating and you feel like you are drowning information, this is why it matters. they had all this information before the election, before the election, and they closed -- they chose to suppress it. the fbi had. twitter had it. and the big question is what about the other social media companies. what do they do to suppress there as well? it's insane what going on. >> ainsley: you all heard r.f.k. yesterday on capitol hill and he said the first amendment is not there to protect us from the easy speech. it's the tough speech. he said no censorship. the fbi knew that that laptop was real on october 14th, weeks before the election. and they chose to keep saying we're not sure. it's not verified, and people were taking it down. twitter was taking it down. facebook was taking it down, the post was the only one and fox reporting it. >> lawrence: they said nothing when all of those former intelligence officials released that big. >> brian: ruining their reputation. >> lawrence: ruin their reputation. still have jobs with the capable

news outlets out there, they said zero. >> brian: meanwhile, 14 minutes after the hour. we have a lot more to go over still. one of the most anticipated movies of the year oppenheimer sits theaters today. i sat down with christopher nolan. >> the story of oppenheimer is simply the most dramatic story i have ever encountered whether you are looking at fiction or historical fact. it's a story with incredible stakes, incredible spence. this is a person who changed the world forever. >> brian: more from him and the big movie plus his take on the ongoing strike in hollywood. >> ainsley: plus jason aldean angers activists with his anticrime song but what do his fans think? rachel campos-duffy joins us live with their take, next. >> lawrence: and from ohio, all the way to our own fox square in new york city, the all-american summer concert series continues with gary l levox.

'. >> ainsley: country music star jason aldean may be under fire for that for try that in a small

town video. fans are standing by his side. rachel campos-duffy talked to concert goers last night after concert was postponed due to severe weather. she joins us now. >> good morning. >> ainsley: tell us, what did all the fans say when you talked to them? >> rachel: as you mentioned, the concert was canceled because of torrential rain but we were age to talk to a few people as they were leaving into their cars. >> so, listen, i think people are standing by aldean. a lot of them are just wondering what's so controversial? and as you know, why don't we listen what they say. we will talk on the other side. >> jason aldean is a very strong-minded person and he feels like he does where he came from. that's what the song is about. it isn't about anything other than that. >> you are going to hear it. we are all from a small town and we like the song. we didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

we thought it was awesome. >> the silent majority in my opinion is way stronger than the those upset with the song. >> maybe some of that video was stuff that people haven't even seen that's what i think. they need to see it. >> i want to hear it in september since this got rained out. but, heck, we are ready. >> ainsley: rachel, was it an outdoor concert? is that why it was concert. >> no, i think any time there is thunder and lightning, they just want to -- they just made that call. it was torrential. >> ainsley: it wasn't because of the controversy? >> rachel: no, no. it wasn't. i was here. i will tell you it was pretty bad weather. i don't think it was because of that. his fans love him. the people here were happy that, you know, they were happy to come. they were upset that they had to

reschedule there could have been this critique on urban policies and violence in the -- in the cities and the woke d.a.s but this was as much a celebration, his song about small town life about communal values and the way they protect and take care of each other. that's really how the fans took it, ainsley. >> ainsley: yeah, i mean, you know, from south carolina, i know you are from a community that's small, too, where everyone knows each other. you go to the grocery store you see your neighbors and school teachers and friends. everywhere you go everyone knows each other and you stick together. i understand the point of that song. saying in a small town we don't let that happen. we love the american flag. we are not going to let you burn it. we are not going to let you throw bricks at the glass at our next door neighbor's little mom and pop shop or the restaurant down the street because we know who owns it. we are not going to allow othat to happen and that's what the

message of the song is. >> i think it's telling when the song itself came out. controversy. it wasn't until the video came out in which aldean decided to show footage from the, quote, summer of love january 6th footage there wouldn't be controversy. not allowed to tell the truth about the violence, the destruction. the burning burning that hurt minority communities just as much if not more. 0 people died. nobody wants you to tell that story. what aldean did was actually show the footage of what the left tried to say were mostly peaceful protests. and i think that's part of what is raging on the left. people from small towns as you said, they said what's all the controversy? and that's what i got from the people here at the concert. >> ainsley: rachel, thank you so much. great to see you this morning.

>> rachel: good seeing you, too. >> ainsley: thank you. let's hand it over to carley for headlines. >> carley: the u.s. ambassador to china among the victims of a major beijing linked hack attack. a state department official says the spying campaign also targeted another top diplomat. but the breach was limited to their unclassified email accounts. investigators believe hackers could have gained insight into internal biden communications about his policies on china. the department of transportation now launching an investigation into delta airlines after passengers in las vegas were stranded on the tarmac for hours in extreme heat. a fox news field producer was on the flight and this is what she saw. >> you're telling us that we have multiple medical emergencies on the flight. the plane is still cannot get any cooler than it is. it's still hot. and we are sitting on the plane and you are telling us you have a choice to either sit here and

one guy is over -- you know, prepares too much. he goes absolutely. so whatever he did, he got the most out of his cast. and the dialogue moves. and three hours it goes by -- you think you are in for 90 minutes. >> lawrence: we are getting to the last of the movies that have already been in to production. so christopher nolan, you had the opportunity to ask him about the strike and this is what he had to say. watch. >> i'm worried right now on behalf of all the families of guild members who are out on strike but it's an absolutely necessary industrial action. the truth is the companies we work for have arbitrarily changed the way in which they sell the products. the deals will change in the last five years 24 comes along every few decades. it's not about movie stars like

matt or directors like myself. writers like myself. working writers. actors who need to pay their mortgages and keep food on the table it. has to be dealt with the quicker it's dealt with the better, that only comes from both sides. >> brian: what is he trying to say ache doors are on strike. broadway could go on strike. what he is saying is this. a lot of time people give up a portion salary sign up for points on the back end. this makes a profit i make more money. cut my salvery but let me be invested in it. when you sell to netflix. netflix says thanks. what do you mean thanks? i'm paying what you are paying and i have subscribers i have a different model. same actors, same movies. wait, i don't get any back end. if i have back end of a movie and it goes to netflix or hulu there is no back end. so let's redo the math. let's redo the contract. >> as painful as it is it's necessary for the actors?

>> people a extras the production i will be able to survive something. has that capital to wait a little bit. to wait a year. i just don't think the average person. >> ainsley: i heard the average salary for an actor is like $25,000. 26,000 or something. >> brian: lighting director. the person that does audio, you worry about them. ainsley: what was he like as a person? >> brian: great guy. you could tell a deep thinker. speaking of deep thinkers, that very deep thinker christopher nolan will be on in an hour and 10 minutes. you will see the whole interview. >> lawrence: will the other deep thinker brian kilmeade. >> ainsley: speaking of the other deep thinker i was talking about he will be on. >> brian: that would have been a better transition. >> ainsley: coming up r.f.k. jr. taking on his own party over governor censorship. >> this is an attempt to censor, a censorship hearing. a government that can censor its

critics has license for every atrocity. it is the beginning of totalitarianism. >> ainsley: dr. marty makary was once censored over a study on natural immunity. do you remember that? he is going to join us next. >> brian: deep thinker. brian. >> ainsley: brian what is next? >> brian: we will check in with joey jones having breakfast in ohio with friends.c ar don't go anywhere. ♪ i'mlosi the man, i'm the man,m the man. ♪ and joints, i'm getting into my groove. ♪(uplifting music)♪ along with significantly clearer skin... skyrizi helps me move with less joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and fatigue. and is just 4 doses a year, after 2 starter doses. skyrizi attaches to and reduces a source of excess inflammation that can lead to skin and joint symptoms. with skyrizi 90% clearer skin and less joint pain are possible. serious allergic reactions and an increased risk of infections or a lower ability to fight them may occur.

interferes with public health and the "wall street journal" article a couple weeks ago suggesting that the censorship of important health information cost american lives. >> brian: no joke. our next guest knows all about it. he has been saying it from day one of the pandemic. he has been censored himself back in 2020. marty in carry. john hopkins colleague showing the effectiveness of natural immunity and linked in pulled it down. dr. makary joins us now. you watched r.f.k. yesterday. could you see a lot of yourself in a lot of the attacks on him? >> that's right. he talked about guilt by association. that sort of modern day mccarthyism. he talked about how asking questions is not allowed. he, you know, he asks a lot of questions himself. but what is interesting is people really don't criticize the details of what he actually said when it came to the covid pandemic. he has been a skeptic. and he may have a different opinion. but he wrote a 500 page book on dr. fauci and the medical

industrial complex. 100% of it was true. he said that the nih nominee to direct the nih of president biden received $200 million from pfizer for research. 100 percent true. is he saying things that people know are true but they just don't want to hear it. >> brian: but, still, you even have an out if you are a democrat. well, that horrible person named donald trump vaccine. operation warp speed was too rushed. so you have your political out. but, still, they are so worried about people saying i'm concerned about this vaccine and now people just want to get rid of the people that are front and center. they were offended that r.f.k. is getting his moment in congress. they wanted to bring him behind closed doors. what does that tell you? one thing r.f.k. jr. would do post true stories who died immediately after the vaccine these were otherwise healthy children. social media didn't like that,

instagram, facebook, linkedin. even anyone associated with him was censored. at his hearing yesterday, what i really appreciated, brian, is when he talked about the so-called toxic polarization of society and how we need to be kind to one another and restore civility, that is a message people are hungry for in the medical community and i think at large. >> brian: sadly, dr. makary they afollowed up with embarrassment to your name and family and ripped him up personally while he was asking for civility. i don't care what you think of him is he a nice guy and extremely smart. he is willing to debate anybody in a civil way. so debate him. don't fear him. dr. makary, thanks so much. >> thanks, brian. >> brian: up next, an energy expert warning lawmakers of china's threat to america's power grid. >> he will tell us what the next attach could look like if we don't act. >> chinese cyber activities are one of the most dynamic china threats. china continues to demonstrate
