price for taking american citizens hostage. the risk should be greater than the ransom they seek. how the white house -- >> continued support for ukraine. here is what they had to say on that. >> you'll see him talk in a full-throated way about the need to support ukraine as they support their sovereignty and the fact the united states will lead world efforts to do that. you will see him speak up for the un integrity that russia are violated inside u.k. >> big story is encounter the president will have with iran's

president, coming one day after five americans were freed in a prisoner excharge. they are on their way back to the u.s. president biden celebrated the deal that required the u.s. to unfreeze $6 billion in iranian assets. >> this is a bad deal, it sets a bad precedence, it degrades national security posture of our allies. >> president biden announced new action will be taken. we are sanctioning ahmadinejad for involvement in wrongful detention. the white house adding this. >> run by a dangerous regime who sees the united states as some sort of enemy and it means that it is not safe for americans to go. the regime has made a practice

of this, of wrongfully detaining foreigners, including americans and trying to negotiate for their release. it was a tough decision. it was the right decision. we got seven americans, and what ends up happening is two iranians are going back to iran. >> alexandria: since 1981, iran received 15.7 billion in prisoner swaps. donald trump writing, i brought home from north korean and they never paid anything. they understood they must let these people come home. president biden secured the release of 30 americans around the world. >> carley: un nuclear watch dog said iran is no longer letting

senior inspectors monitor the nuclear program. that is hugely concerning. thank you for the wrap-up, we appreciate it. >> todd: one person dead after russian drone attacked several warehouses overnight sparking a massive fire. spreading to three warehouses, in latest attack comes as zelenskyy arrives in the united states for the general assembly. yesterday he visited soldiers being treated on staten island. he will head to capitol hill this week to convince congress to approve another aid package. and actor sean penn says congress should approve additional funding for as long

>> todd: hunter biden is suing the irs claiming agents illegally released his tax information to target and embarrass him after two whistleblowers came forward with information. >> carley: brooke singman has more. >> brooke: hunter biden is demanding $100,000 for each -- lawyers said the lawsuit argues irs agents targeted and sought to embarrass mr. biden by p public -- providing public -- they both testified before the house oversight committee claiming politics influenced the investigation into the

president's son and claimed the justice department gave hunter biden preferential treatment. attorneys for shapley says this is smoke and mirrors. >> this lawsuit is a frivolous smear to try to block the whistleblowers or potential whistleblowers from coming forward. there were no violation, whistleblowers followed the statute. whistleblowers can come forward and shine the light on government misconduct and that happened here. >> brooke: and ziegler says this will not silence him. >> they have decided their best defense is to muzzle us and intimidate us. we won't be muzzled and we will not distract from the mountains of evidence coming forward.

>> brooke: the president's son is suing his father's administration. the irs, his father's irs, has not responded to the lawsuit. >> todd: bring in former fbi director and attorney chris swecker. they did everything by the book, character, integrity is unimpeachable. so why would they bring a lawsuit like this other than intimidation? >> you nailed it, it is rank intimidation. they know there are other whistleblowers out there. they want to deter others from coming forward. when you juxtapose a criminal and civil case and open things up in the discovery process and hunter biden has a lot to hide. i think he enjoys being in the spotlight here.

there may be a side motive, as well, to make it look like any future indictment by the irs or based on irs investigation is retaliation for this lawsuit, which nothing can be further from the truth. whole pan of things coming out of this and it will guarantee hunter biden stays in the public psyche and spotlight. >> carley: interesting turn of events. his attorney says he deserves to be treated like everybody else and the whistleblowers are saying, that is our point, he wasn't being treated like everybody else, that is why we came forward and kevin mccarthy says republicans will subpoena hunter biden, it is just a matter of time. what is the holdup and would a subpoena matter in the end? i guess when it comes to tying joe biden to the biden family business. >> yeah, i said this before, i

think it is really sad that congress has to do the investigation that the fbi should have done. and it is not the agents on the street, it is those back at headquarters that are making the call. there is a lot there. no investigation should take five years. this is -- should have been, he was being treated like anybody else, they would have done a full and thorough investigation and it would have taken 18 months. the fbi has the power, they have the grand jury and mutual legal assistantance treaty to get information from overseas. all they need to conduct a thorough investigation like they did with donald trump. >> todd: jonathan turley pointed out, they were invited to a public hearing because congress wanted this information to be made -- wait for it, public.

maybe abbe lowell will see congress next. and george gascon says he will aggressively pursue the man who was involved in the attack. >> i have personally spoken to the district attorney this morning and he assures me they will aggressively pursue this case. >> i want ryan's killer to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and i'm happy to hear the da. you have my word, i will not rest until that happens. >> todd: i feel like they are throwing george gascon a parade for doing his job. if george gascon had prosecuted crime, which is his job during time as da, this killer would not have been as embolden to carry out a execution like this. what say you, chris? >> i agree 100%.

this district attorney created the environment that resulted in this killing and many, many others. to hear him talk tough rings hollow to me. he is a da that draws no connection between deterrence, which is bringing people to justice, and reducing crime. he is putting everybody at risk in the general public and every other progressive prosecutor across the country. it rings hollow to me. >> carley: it is such a tragic turn of events. this happened over the weekend and involves los angeles county sheriff deputy ryan . it is believed the guys ran over him despite he was a police officer. i've been in personal contact regarding this investigation and

made a commitment to him my office will prosecute the killer for this senseless act. hope they make an example of him so nothing like this ever happens again. thank you for joining us this morning. there is this. president biden handed down 50-year drilling ban across thousands of acres in new mexico? did you hear about that? our economy will lose big time. cheryl casone will help us explain. >> todd: have you heard this? two off-duty firefighters rushing to save a fan at the patriots and dolphins game. guess what, we are talking to both those heroes next.

parents are teaching this or letting society teach this and they do not care. this is not only doing giant disservice to society, young people grow up with no consequences, they put them on social media, they call it content. we are losing the youth in this country. this will impact society for years to come. juveniles are going to grow up and be adults and i shutter to think what they will do then if we don't apply consequences now. >> carley: you are right. it is striking to had been from the widow crystal probst say something needs to change. not only parents, it is the way the country is. criminal justice is viewed as comp compassion, letting criminals

off with early probation is seen as compassionate. is it really? it teaches union people, the 17 year old has a rap sheet, they can get awi with it. wouldn't compassion be punishing first-time offenders so they don't do this again? >> tomi: discipline and structure go a long way. i'm sure the three of us feared consequences and adults and feared discipline and structure and we were able to keep ourselves in line and turn out to be adults who were productive members of society, decent people. when you take away that structure, it started in 2020 and everybody felt they could do what they wanted, they passed this off as justice and we are confused and shocked why this is happening.

governor, house and senate. so how the heck does that happen and what does that mean for 2024? >> a couple things as you see trump barely lost in 2016. this state is a toss-up state. the governor state and senate all run by republicans. we are a toss-up state we are shah shining gem up in the northeast that is keeping some sensibility, individual liberty and live, free or die spirit going. which is why you can tell i'm smiling. if you would be smiling, too. >> carley: new hampshire is very beautiful especially in the fall. >> todd: lived there four times last time i was up there as a student primary led too election last time republican won in new hampshire. that was george bush against al gore. that ultimately won the election for george bush. do you see those federal races impacting down ballot races like governor where you got a lote

presidential race is going -- could potentially affect our congressional district 1 which should be a republican district. the governorship. whoever sits atop of the ballot i'm actually more concerned how it effects things going all the way down. we are not just talking about the governorship and congressional seats. i don't want to lose school board seats or local elections because of who is on top of the ticket. which is why, look, it's not personal. i think a lot of folks know i'm moving on as a lot of folks from former president trump because there are too many other good candidates and options that don't hurt the ticket down ballot. i'm very concernedthat stand one retail publics and engage with people one on one. ask and answer the right questions. it does lead to retail management something we believe in strongly here. why we have such high voter

turnout. so many people participate in our process and why the candidates really have to hit the ground here. >> carley: on the democratic side of the aisle you have president biden and the dnc. they are trying to make big changes to the primary calendar. try be to strip new hampshire first in the nation primary spot. now we are hearing joe biden might not be on the ballot. a lot of people don't know how this works. >> joe biden has completely screwed this up for himself and for the democrats. we're going first no matter what. new hampshire first in the nation primary is going to happen first. biden tried to give some political pay back to his buddies in south carolina. a state that has frankly one of the lower voter turnouts in the country. iowa democrats try to screw it up and turn their process into primary. i'm sorry, guys, new hampshire's primary going to be first. that's why the republican candidates are here. that's why you even have robert kennedy here pounding the pavement on the democrat side of things. so, you know, once again,joe
