[cheering] ♪ ♪ >> laura: hi, everyone >> laura: hi, everyone, i'm laura ingraham. this is "the ingraham angle," thank you for joining us. we told you how your car could be hacked by the chinese. tonight, we'll offer something a little lighter, dare we say a little airier about the future of cars. i got the chance toeck which out an actual flying car and of course, bringing you along for the ride. but first, the nimby liberals
1:01 am
are the focus of tonight's angle. liberal new york is finally feeling the brunt of the policy they have always supported, an open border. it is about time. irresponsibility of the white house for not addressing this problem. from anywhere on the globe, we are supposed to feed, clothe, house you for as long as you want. that is just not sustainable or realistic. we are also asking the federal government to declare a state of emergency. >> laura: a state of emergency? well, migrant shelters are overwhelmed, illegal aliens are spilling into the streets and now soccer fields are being taken over to house temporary housing for those in the big apple temperature has been a huge problem for 15 years in the
1:02 am
united states, yet only now thinks to ingenious moves by governor desantis and greg abbott have they started to wake up on the problem. nimby came to mind today, stands for not in my backyard. who can forget how kennedy joined forces with bill koch, to kill that wind farm on cape cod caused by the turbines, nimby move. when started shipping migrants to sanctuary states, the states got their dose of the problem border communities have been enduring for years. liberal leaders in illinois, new york and massachusetts are crying foul and changing their tune. >> the increased level of demand is not slowing down, expanding shelter at a rapid pace and it
1:03 am
is unsustainable. for thissen ra, tuesday i am declaring a state of emergency in massachusetts. >> if you have an extra room, suite in your home, please consider hosting a family. >> laura: consider hosting them. okay. cambridge, are you listening? the whole harvard faculty should open up their homes, that will go over really well. it went over well when it was floated in new york. speaking of new york, some might mistake change in rhetoric on illegal immigration for actual change of heart. listen closely to their real motivation for sounding the alarm on the migrant influx. >> we need leadership from president biden period, democrats are looking bad and that is unacceptable, when we have to win four congressional seats to take back the house, hopefully the president is listening.
1:04 am
>> laura: wait, you heard that right. they have four feets to defend, not that the border needs to be closed immediately. this is making democrats look bad to voters. i mean, liberal politicians never cared before, because number one, before biden influx, illegals were absorbed by border states and number two, when election time, no real political price to be paid for the democrats. again, desantis and abbott, brilliant, the moves expose democrats for who they are, utter frauds. >> the faucet is flowing, stop the flow of faus sxet have decompression strategy at the border. not sustainable, 10,000 per month, the math does not add up. >> laura: the math doesn't add up. the decompression strategy,
1:05 am
can't even say support the border. he cannot bring himself to say what we all know, this is all on biden for flinging over the border in the first place. >> are you frustrated with the biden administration, you place blame on them for more welcoming stance that led to this record surge? >> a lot of blame to go around, again, republicans have been blocking real immigration re form. what is at the heart of this for me, what is more american than the right to work? >> laura: uh-huh. there you have it. like all globalists, adams believes that borders are immoral, especially the united states border. he believes that anyone, anywhere in the world has inherent right to be american and because americans have not cooperated in that insane idea, they're to blame for the migrant mess. of course, the truth is far
1:06 am
easier to process, though. right? like illegals, nanny their kid and mowing their lawn, they don't want their own lives inconvenienced or landscape obscured by turbines or deal with political fall out. this reminds me of the lockdowns at liberal institute of covid, they would love to bring them back, if they could. they love keeping the little people at home and chasing them off the beach. they didn't want to cramp their social life or beauty parlor appointments. no, no, what is good for the goose is good for the gander, if open border is what massachusetts supports, which they did when they voted for biden. then massachusetts should be forced to live with consequences of that policy. we saw how liberal bleeding hearts reacted on martha's
1:07 am
vineyard. they staged a few photo ops of middle-age island reps handing out sandwiches and then shipped off the island. stalled out in about 48 hours. ever since the late '90s, 1996, my first report on the border under clinton, i've known this was a problem. some democrats cared about the issue back then. over time it became clear they do not give a rat's you know what, about the migrants themselves or the working class americans hurt by their flooding into the country. the democrats still don't care. did you know that last year more than 152,000 unaccompanied minor children crossed our border. so far this year, it is tens of thousands. where are the democrats on this?
1:08 am
where is the squad? remember they trashed trump for conditions that briefly existed before he got the border under control? why isn't nancy pelosi raising a ruckous over the epidemic considering under biden? i'll tell you why, they don't care. the question now is, when will the voters in new england, the pacific northwest, new york and illinois, when will they start to care? remember, president reagan won a land slide in 1980 and really 1984 when democrats across america decided they had had it with a bad economy and out of touch bureaucracy. that reawakening needs to happen again for us to start turning things around. message to democrats-run cities and states, if new yorkers elected lee zeldin and not kathy hochul, things would be improving.
1:09 am
now things are getting worse, dit on in california and ditto in illinois. the policies you are voting for are making your lives worse, not just on the border, look at inflation, energy costs and crime. in 2024, you have a chance for a new start toward common sense. the single suggests you take it. that is the angle. all right, joining us is ned ryan, american majority ceo. ned, you know what i'm talking about, what happened under the reagan revolution, which is the states that have gone democrats for so many years decided finally they had had enough and same with the new england states. do you agree this has to be a 50-state strategy for renewal? >> i do, but the only way they will see the light is for them to also have the consequences put on their doorstep in other blue states and other sanctuary cities, new york city and
1:10 am
massachusetts were virtue signalling until abbott helped realize dream of looking like the third world house scapes these illegals escaped from. blue states and sanctuary cities need to experience what new york city and massachusetts are experiencing now for the people to wake up. all for illegals being bussed into blue states and blue cities, i hope they experience all the societal pain that comes from brokal immigration system and poor southern border and i would take it a few steps forward, laura. you have republican majority in the state legislature and republican governor, pass legislation that would put sanctuary cities, make them liable so citizens can sue them for anything done to them, any crimes committed against american citizens by illegals. i would do something else, laura, this is not just a democrat problem, chamber of commerce type republicans should have these illegals shipped to
1:11 am
their district and state. i think you have to have more american people experiencing this to fully understand what is going on. when enough do, it will take us to the table to have a serious conversation about immigration reform and fixing the southern border. >> laura: yeah, when you say real immigration reform, i hear amnesty. >> nope. >> laura: i don't trust the likes of any of these democratic governors, pritzger newsom, would not be good faith partners if they were in office. if they were in the senate, they would never agree to deport anyone except maybe a murderer every now and then. they do not believe anyone should be deported, they don't believe that. >> this is a crime against american people, the drugs and crime is costing us $151 billion by the time you total it up for
1:12 am
the american taxpayer. i'm not talking about amnesty, we should go back and start from scratch and deport those who came in illegally, have a border wall and security and go to merit-based immigration system, laura. more and more american people realize this is damaging us on a whole host of fronts and until we get serious about it, they will experience this. they will not get serious until they feel the threat of political survival. i tell people all the time, most elected officials are expert in political observation, preserving their political career. until they feel their political careers are in danger, they are not going to do anything. the american people can pressure them by experiencing this, i think you will see change. >> laura: yeah, i think you are beginning to see that. lee zeldin came fairly close in new york, if he had won, things wouldn't be tow bad in new york.
1:13 am
thank you. what happened yesterday in utah? check this out, a man in his 70s, craig delo robertson, made multiple vile threats against joe biden's life ahead of the president's visit to the state. yesterday morning in predawn raid, he was killed by fbi agents hours before biden was set to arrive. he was armed, the other details are vague. we reached out to the bureau to ask if the individual brandished his weapon or pointed it or discharged it, any details about the incidents, but the fbi responded by saying it would not be able to comment on our questions at this time. not able? not willing? what is not clear. let us be clear, violent threats against the president should be investigated and charges filed
1:14 am
when warranted. it is totally reasonable to ask for more information about how an obese man in his 70s who had documented mobility issue posed the threat described? associates said robertson was a frail individual, used to hand carve stick, a cane, his neighbor said he did regularly carry a weapon, guns, a lot of people do out west, no way he was driving from here to salt lake city, setting up a rifle and taking a shot at the president, 100% no way. and a man described robertson as a boomer who made off-color jokes, until that indicated it was a threat. it is possible robertson did represent a threat beyond what the neighbors perceived, but there is no possibility excessive force may have been
1:15 am
used here or we are only reserving concern for police-involved shootings in the inner city when talking about excessive force possibilities. quick to jump in to play defense. >> they could not let this go on further without taking this guy into custody. take him to neutralize the threat. >> seen it before, people insighted to violence by someone else's ideology, saw it in droves on january 6. it keeps happening and we may continue to see this happening. >> laura: executing a warrant of course. this is absurd, what you heard the last agent say. it amounts to a smear implicit of millions of americans who may have supported president trump or other conservatives, implying they can't be trusted or when it
1:16 am
doubt, shoot first and request questions later. we'll monitor the story and hope to learn about the interaction that led to robertson death and his threats, when we do, we'll update you. the fbi targeting of catholics was more prevalent than previously known. plus, new jersey doesn't want parents to know if their kid wants to transition, i kid you not. that and a lot more ahead.

1:21 am
♪ >> laura: earlier this year we learned that the fbi was targeting radical, traditionalist catholics as potentially racially or ethnically violent extremists. what? well, just one month ago fbi director chris wray tried to play it off as one big misunderstanding. >> what i can tell you is you are referring to the prismd product product by a single field office which as soon as i found out about it i was aghast and ordered it withdrawn and removed from fbi systems. >> laura: well, it terms out it was more than just richmond. house judiciary republicans have fbi documents proving portland and los angeles field offices were also involved in labeling traditional catholics as potential domestic terrorists. joining me now is mark houck who
1:22 am
is a pro-life activist whose home was raided by the fbi last september. he is also running for congress in pennsylvania. mark, good for you, does this surprise you given your own experience and what do you think should happen at this point to chris wray? first of all, i'm a roman catholic. i don't know who they are talking about these traditional radical catholics. i guess they are just people who believe in roman ca catholicismt this point. >> yeah. well, it's obvious to me two things are happening here, laura. the first thing is director wray is not doing his own personal investigation as it pertains to my situation because i was raided by the fbi. surprised i wasn't shot like mr. and he did not do a personal investigation as it pertains to the richmond memo. or, the second thing, he flat out perjured himself before the oversight committee. either way, he -- it's clear the doj is targeting people of faith
1:23 am
and declaring them enemies of the state. >> laura: well, you see this and you think this can't be happening in the united states of america where religious liberty is sacrosanct and our free exercise rights protected under the first amendment. so, you know, the liberals love the establishment clause but we also have the free exercise clause and it seems, mark, that religious beliefs are under attack in a whole host of ways. this article, you are not going to believe this, called devout catholic couple claims that massachusetts banned them from participating in the state foster care system due to their religious beliefs. they claim that the state restricted them due to their adherence to catholic teachings on gender, sexuality and marriage. mark, something like this has to be challenged and ultimately make its way to the supreme court. but, did you ever think it would arrive at this day in the united states of america when something like this could happen?
1:24 am
>> look, i woke up one friday morning prepared to take my children to their home school co-opt. i had a quiche in the oven, at 6:30 in the morning i had a pre-dawn raid with heavily armored fbi agents, 20-plus law enforcement. i could never imagine that my children would be woken up in the middle of a slumber and that their father would be arrested and accosted in front of them and taken away in shackles. so, yeah. it doesn't surprise me what is happening in massachusetts. i'm not surprised. people who want to foster kids that are in the system, they have a great heart. they have a generous heart. and to deny them because of faith makes absolutely no sense to me. >> laura: well, catholic adoption agencies, of course, will close down because of their faithful beliefs as well. mark, you were the best person on this tonight. thank you so much. now, if there's a boy in a new jersey public school and he says, well, he wants to go by
1:25 am
she or her, change the pronouns, he can use the girl's bathroom or the locker room for the girls and here's the kicker, parents, his parents, don't need to be told about it. this is thanks to democrat governor phil murphy. well, schools are now not required to alert parents if children want to change their gender identity. some districts are basically telling employees to lie it the parents. one new jersey teacher told the angle that it's become trendy for kids to change their gender. i have heard the same thing. and while the so-called preferred pronouns are used in the school's grading systems, she was told to never tell the parents. we're hiding it from them. how do you think the parents reacted? >> it's my right as a parent to be notified if they were to request a change in their gender identity at school. if my child went to school and asked the teacher for an accommodation to use a different bathroom, i would expect a phone
1:26 am
call. it is not their job to fix the broken in my home. i'm tired trying to co-parent with me. telling me what's right for my family. >> laura: thankfully some districts respect parental rights and requiring teachers to say if a child requests different pronounce. murphy sued and for three of those districts, it's actually heading to court next week. joining me now is one of those mothers you saw in that clip katherina so he can also a ski. katherina, why is this so critical to you as a mother? >> it's extremely critical to me it involves my children. my parental rights are trying to be taken away from me because the state wants to enforce a knew policy. the state wants teachers to lie to children.
1:27 am
phil murphy almost got defeated last time he was running for re-election. i wish he did because this is disgusting acots board. the new jersey department of education says that if a parent disagrees, katherina with the school calling the child a different name or pronoun, the school should side with the child family counseling. in other words change the parent's mind. your reaction to that development? >> it's horrific. it's horrific. children are still very young. they are minors. they don't know what they want to eat for dinner. they don't know anything at that age. they are still naive. so, for the schools to push this on a child to help a child transition into the opposite gender it's frightening. who are risk to know they are doing this behind my back.
1:28 am
>> >> laura: caterina, i have a chance to talk to a lot of moms because i'm a mom of three teenagers. i have heard the most outrageous stories from my home state of connecticut and around the country that this is trendy to change your gender or do different pronouns and that it's like -- it catches on like a trend, like a tiktok trend. suddenly go from one child saying he or she is transgender to a friend group, an entire friend group becoming nonbinary or proclaiming a different pronoun. have you heard that to be happening as well? it is like a tiktok trend? >> i do feel that it's becoming like a tiktok trend. it's like the newest and coolest thing to do. but what these children don't understand are the repercussions of transitioning to the opposite gender. once you do that, you can't go back to becoming who you were.
1:29 am
>> laura: caterina, i hope you get relief and i hope this situation in new jersey is righted, if necessary, in court. thank you for speaking out. now, jonathan turley is not prone to hyperbole. so when he published a piece declaring that joe biden absolutely benefited from hunter's foreign business, well, we noticed. professor turley is here next to explain it.

we planned well for retirement, but i wish we had more cash. you think those two
1:33 am
have any idea? that they can sell their life insurance policy for cash? so they're basically sitting on a goldmine? i don't think they have a clue. that's crazy! well, not everyone knows coventry's helped thousands of people sell their policies for cash. even term policies. i can't believe they're just sitting up there! sitting on all this cash. if you own a life insurance policy of $100,000 or more, you can sell all or part of it to coventry. even a term policy. for cash, or a combination of cash and coverage, with no future premiums. someone needs to tell them, that they're sitting on a goldmine, and you have no idea! hey, guys! you're sitting on a goldmine! come on, guys! do you hear that? i don't hear anything anymore. find out if you're sitting on a goldmine. call coventry direct today at the number on your screen, or visit coventrydirect.com. do you ever feel dehydrated and need to feel better quickly? liquid labs from force factor hydrates better and faster

than water alone. and, liquid labs is delicious, easy to use and affordable. rush to walmart and find liquid labs in the vitamin aisle. >> laura: take a deeper look at a man named amos hochstein, he served as special envoy for international business affairs under the obama-biden administration. not only was hochstein in communication with hunter and hunter's associates at burisma when the first son was serving on that firm's board, but now we have gotten our hands on a photo showing biden being briefed by hochstein on board air force 2 on december 6th, 2015. now why is that date important?
1:35 am
well, biden was on his way that day to meet ukrainian leaders in kyiv when he threatened to withhold that billion dollars in u.s. aid if they didn't fire their top prosecutor viktor shokin. so what happens when you are a biden facilitator? well, you continue to work for the family. that's what happens. hochstein now serves as special presidential coordinator to biden. now, it's information like this that our next guest declares emphatically it means that joe did benefit from hunter's business deals. joining me now jonathan turley professor of law at george washington university and a fox news contributor. professor turley, there are all sorts of unsavory or different types of characters coming in and out of this biden drama. but what pushed you to feel most comfortable about making the claim of the director benefit to joe biden. >> well, we have heard this drum beat recently that the media is
1:36 am
now acknowledging that, sure, hunter biden was selling influence and access but it was an allusion. and, there's no proof that joe biden got an envelope full of money or a direct deposit to his account; therefore, there's nothing here. democrats have constantly said stop asking questions because you don't have that type of direct evidence of benefits. well, that's just ridiculous. i mean, obviously, all of these payments benefit joe biden. it's going to the biden family fund. you know, joe biden is 80 years old. he is worth at least $8 million. he is not going to spend that people at his age, his wealth, are largely preoccupied during these days with leaving a legacy for their children, for their grandchildren. this was a great benefit in that sense. now, you also have emails that have references to paying some of joe biden's bills, arranging for free offices and other expenses. but even putting that aside, to
1:37 am
say that $20 million going to his children and grandchildren wouldn't influence him or benefit him is just facially ridiculous. >> laura: also one trusted fbi informant, professor, i think did say that they wanted to avoid direct payments to joe biden. i mean, these people might be stupid in some ways but they are not that stupid. i mean, you exercise influence peddling not necessarily by having a direct deposit, as you said. i mean, that's just goofy. no one thinks that but the idea that you have to prove like a money trail that goes -- that just flies in the case of common sense and how these things work. >> that's right. being a crook doesn't mean you are a moron. moron would take direct deposit night an account into the biden family or send some zel transfer. it's not done. the bidens are very good in this. they have been in the influence
1:38 am
peddling business for decades. there have been articles not just hunter but the president's brother openly selling his access according to critics. so they have been at this a long time. hunter biden himself told a chinese counterpart we're the best at this. tell the chairman. they probably are. but here's the weird thing is that you have got this labyrinth of accounts, right? two dozen different shell company accounts that have no discernible pursuance except to hide the money transfers going to the biden family and, yet democrats are demanding the one thing that is the least likely to appear. despite that whole apparatus to transfer money, someone was giving a direct deposit slip to joe and jill biden. i mean, how crazy is that? so we have to, i think, deal with the reality that this is what influence peddling is. >> laura: this is what it looks like. it's not a direct line. professor, breaking today, we learned that jack smith is
1:39 am
requesting, the special prosecutor, a january 2nd, 2024 court date in the january 6th trial. meaning that president biden would be essentially tied up in washington, d.c. for at least six weeks right in the heat of the g.o.p. primary schedule. your reaction? >> well, laura, it's really interesting with all the criticism that the bias in washington. jack smith picked the very anniversary for the trial of the january sixth riots for a trial in the city where it occurred. it almost invites a prejudicial impact on the trial. so i think it's a very unfortunate choice. and it's occurring right before these primaries. >> well, and i will just add something that's not a legal point here but also, it's almost like let's ruin his holiday, too. i mean, i have been in enough
1:40 am
trials. january 2nd is not a common choice for a trial to take place. professor, thank you. good to have you don't. and now it's time for our political pallet cleanser. ♪ ♪ >> laura: now, check out the moment that a legally blind boy cease his parents clearly for the first time. hey, bubby. >> look at that handsome boy. >> hey. >> >> laura: if that doesn't make you smile, what a handsome young man. all right. coming up. don't you wish there was some way to just get over traffic? i mean, fly over it? well, that may be reality sooner than you think. today i checked out one car that can actually fly. and i'm going to show you right after this. ♪

batteries, cells, mostly the carbon fighter. >> laura: the concern everybody have with electric is how far it would ultimately go. people see these cool, you know, flying cars and they think oh i can go across country. but, what happens the reality? >> so, at this point, unfortunately you cannot, but down the road definitely. we see this as the future. >> laura: price tag, i see this and i think who could ever afford this? what do you see this originally costing? >> so, at this point it's about 300, go to $375,000. our goal is to democratize it, to make it accessible. we will try to find the best way to do leasing, whatever we can, so people can afford it, because we know this is the future. >> laura: the first time you got it off the ground, what did that feel like? >> it was amazing. the feeling is really cushions of air. fans throwing air below. and you are comfortable. >> laura: the inside of the
