5:10 am
all signs point back to the county da. she stood on the position she was not going to prosecute for crimes like this, which is irresponsible at best. when i found that out and start highlighting that, people started stepping up, saying this happened to me or my neighbor. people are infuriated. >> lawrence: this is what happens when you empower criminals. there is emphasis on supreme court and judges, there has to be effort from republicans to find reasonable das. this is out of control. we respect the rule of law, this is going to lead to vigilante justice. when cops can't do their job, you can't have private security anymore, they chase people outside of stores, it will lead

failures. the iranian nation take pride in having instrumentally unmasked true nature of the rulers involved. the east and west through islamic resolution. >> ainsley: the leader using his time to condemn the united states and that wasn't all. israelis ambassador walked out of the speech and was detained. president biden addressing world leaders highlighting climate change. >> president biden: we stand ready to work together with china on issues where progress hinges on common efforts. nowhere is that more critical than accelerating the climate crisis. these snapshots tell urgent story of what awaits us if we
5:25 am
wait on fossil fuel and climate-proof the world. >> brian: right, that was his focus. joining us former u.n. ambassador and presidential candidate, ambassador nikki haley. the president remark heavy on climate change, nothing about taiwan and talked about china not being an enemy, we want to derisk, not decouple. where do you break from the president? >> it is embarrassing, i'm looking at the fact spy balloon over our country, you killed thousands of americans with fentanyl and steal intellectual property and you will say they are competitor. china see us as an enemy, they are preparing for war and you talk about climate change and the fact they are a competitor. the chinese had to be celebrating and laughing at us. >> brian: they did not show up. >> ainsley: how do you feel
5:26 am
about the iranian president saying in front of the un and you have israel ambassador holding up a picture of the young lady who died in iran for not wearing the hijab correctly, brutally murdered. he walks outside in the hallway and he is detained. >> it is taking everything i've got not to walk in the door. he is getting up there, slamming america around after he was given $6 billion. and it was announced on 9/11, blocks from where we had thousands of people die. he will spew that hate and you detain an israelis ambassador for calling out a truth that a year ago was murdered because
5:27 am
she didn't her headdress properly. it was freedom of speech. if you let a murderer get up and have voice to a microphone, you have every right to have israelis ambassador holdup poster saying do not forget what he did to her. >> brian: who arrested him? >> the un, you protect that thug and sit there. this is hypocrisy at its best. they have done this to israel. only thing that sickens me more, american ambassador was not holding the poster right next to him. >> steve: why do you think world leaders, china and russia, putin has international arrest warrant for him, or france, why didn't they show up? is it because they do not want to be lectured by biden? >> they don't respect biden, you show up to please that
5:28 am
president, it is a moment of respect that shows this is important place. they don't respect biden. they know that kamala harris is nothing to be afraid of. they know biden is not with it. why go and spend time to come here? they are not going to get anything from biden and don't want anything from biden, they don't trust him. >> brian: ambassador, last two major polls head-to-head with joe biden, you beat him by six and two. trump, as well. last poll i saw, harvard poll, so did tim scott. what is going on there? what about your message is resonating in the general more than donald trump? >> this is marathon, not a sprint. what you are seeing, we have to have someone that can win a general, a primary win doesn't matter if we end up with president kamala harris, that cannot happen. goal is this is story about addition. you want people to join us.
5:29 am
doesn't mean you have to soften on being conservative, you bring people in. if we lost eight of the last seven popular votes for president, that is nothing for republicans to be proud of. we want to win the majority of americans, we are going out and bringing in everyone, women, younger generation, independents, conservatives, in way that will bring us strong and proud. >> ainsley: your abortion answer, so many watching are pro-life, you're pro-life, but you gave a fabulous answer, great answer, though, that can attract independents and democrats and i had a democratic mom at our school come up to say she is my candidate now. >> the fellows don't know how to talk about it. you have to humanize this situation. i'm pro-life, i will not judge
5:30 am
someone for being pro-choice any more than i want them to judge me for being pro-life. i'm waiting for them to ask joe biden whether he is for 37, 38, 39 weeks. they asked kamala harris and she had no answer. turn the tables on them. end of the day, come together on what we can agree on. >> brian: what is your week? >> it takes 60 senate vote in the house, where does that come together? ban late term abortion, let's not make doctors and nurses have to perform them. make contraception legal. do not give a woman death penalty for getting an abortion. the goal is how do we save as many baby as possible and support as many moms as possible. >> steve: what are you doing for the next 10 minutes? lawrence would like to have you go outside and talk to the kids

i look back with great satisfaction on my 32 years in active duty. i understand the veteran mentality. these are people who have served. they've been in leadership positions. they're willing to put their life on the line if necessary. and they come to us and they say, i need some financial help at this point in time. they're not looking for a handout. they're looking for a little hand up. my team at newday usa is going to do
5:36 am
>> lawrence: so the first 2024 primary contest is just months away and presidential contender nikki haley will answer questions from our gen z and millennial panel. thank you for joining me. i have questions of my own before the panel. we've seen our southern border, i'm a texan, be overrun like a full-blown invasion. what do you do to secure the border? >> let's give credit to greg
5:37 am
abbott. we do national e-verify program and know which companies are hiring people and go back to remain in mexico policy and put 25,000 border patrol and ice agents on the ground and let them do their job. we go to catch and deport. america is country of laws, when we stop, we give up everything our country was founded on? >> liza, what do you have for the ambassador? >> i am a proud jewish mom and i am living in a lot of fear for the future of my children as anti-semitism is reaching heights. rashida tlaib and aoc are contributing to this. i am concerned with anti-zionism
5:38 am
on college campuses, how would you fight this and why the relationship between the u.s. and israel is so important. >> that is a great question, i lived it at the un. we were talking about the fact they detained the israelis ambassador for reminding everybody about the fact she died at iranian hands. israel is a bright spot in a tough neighborhood and too many people think israel need america, that is not the case, america needs israel. hate is hate, whether racism, anti-semitism, it need to be dealt with that way. on college campuses, if they don't combat hate, their funding should be pulled, that simple. we can't have people on the seat
5:39 am
worried and as a mom, i have a mom heart, worried about your child on a college campus because someone is going to hate them. when you allow the president to spew hate from the un world stage after we gave $6 billion, that is what you get, a president who remembers israel and u.s. are best friends and we'll keep it that way. >> lawrence: dennis, you have a question about the why. >> yes, ambassador haley, my family is from south carolina, i went to clapton university. i student taught with someone who taught you. why should we be going for you. >> dennis, that is a fantastic school and i love you are from there. i lived in orangeburg. i have executive experience. i was a two-term governor and i have un foreign policy
5:40 am
experience, i had to negotiate with china and russia. we are going into a time when foreign policy matter for the next 10 and 20 years. you have to have someone who is tough and understands them. it is time for a new leader, get rid of the past negativity and focus on someone who is tough, make america strong and proud again and bring people back together, that is what i'm going to do. >> lawrence: michael. >> i'm a finance major at fordham university. i focus on the economy. president biden presented larger issue of inflation, how will you tackle it? what is your game plan? >> you are right, biden has taken us down socialism creek we have to stop. be honest, biden did this to us, republicans did, too. they passed 2.2 trillion covid
5:41 am
stimulus, left americans on medicaid and food stamps. we have to cut up the credit card, they are spending like drunken sailors. stop spending and borrowing and i will veto any spending bill that doesn't take us back to pre-covid levels. it is expensive to go to the grocery store, buy gas and pay rent. we need to be energy dominant, stop spending and focus on paying down the debt to get interest payments down. we've had too many lawyers in the white house, it is time to have an accountant in the white house, that is what i bring to the table. >> my question has to do with your polling, you have gained momentum in recent weeks and getting close to ron desantis. my question has to do with why you think that is and specifically what part of your message you think are resonating with voters, especially young
5:42 am
voters? >> i understand young voters, i have two kids, 22 and 25, i talk to them everyday. i'm a mom, military spouse, accountants, the daughter of legal immigrants, i can relate to a lot of people. i speak hard truths, i did it as governor, as un ambassador and american people deserve the truth. let's be transparent and fix our problems together, that is the way we go forward. people appreciate the straight talk, i trust american people to make good decisions and i identify with them. that is why the poll numbers show that. >> lawrence: smart group of young people, ambassador, thank you, maybe the next president. >> go to nikki haley.com, and spread the word. >> steve: i'll bet they do,
5:43 am
great job, lawrence. >> brian: in little more than an hour, attorney general merrick garland will testify on allegation of biden family corruption as his doj is accused of being weaponized for political use. >> ainsley: what do lawmakers want to hear? vice chair of the conference mike johnson, joins us now. good morning, congressman, great to have you on, especially right before you go and sit down and ask merrick garland all these questions. what are you going to ask him? >> we have a lot of questions to ask him, i will focus on doj involvement in special counsel weiss investigation of the son. here is the problem, 65% of the americans have a negative view of doj, they see politicized, two-tier system of justice.
5:44 am
they see prosecution of president biden political opponent, donald trump, and see slow walking and special treatment for the president's son. over two years under merrick garland leadership, you had concerned parents labeled domestic terrorist and catholics investigated and spied on in churches, you had collusion with big tech. doj and fbi silenced conservatives online. people don't trust merrick garland and he has a lot to answer for. >> steve: one contributing factor, we've seen on tv a couple irs whistleblowers that were convincing in saying and we've heard from other sources that whistleblowers said they heard from the guy who is now special counsel, special lawyer who said i'm not the decider, it is somebody else. we heard from merrick garland say he's got his own autonomy, can do what he wants.
5:45 am
sounds like there is somebody between david weiss and somebody lower than attorney general who might have their finger on the scale. >> that may be true, steve, that is one thing we're trying to dig into today. merrick garland is the boss, he is attorney general, in charge of all this and he does have -- the story changed multiple times. mr. weiss changed his story three times in 30 days. it matters, that is what people want to know, is hunter biden getting special treatment and it looks like he does. the tax charges were allowed to lapse, almost never happens, statute of limitation. it looked crooked. take it on face value. >> brian: you are focused on getting continuing resolution to get a budget going. you didn't get your appropriations bill done. there is a cr that failed
5:46 am
because of people like matt rosendale. l listen to why. >> i said i will not support continuing resolution, that is extension of nancy pelosi and joe biden policies that we voted against for the last two years. we were assured by kevin mccarthy, this congress will be different, congress need to do their job and pay the bills and get discretionary spending reduced. >> brian: bishop and rosendale voted no and now moderate getting together with democrats and might do something and leave you guys out. >> you just named some of my best friends, i'm a conservative, but i'm in house leadership. matt rosendale is not wrong, but doing cr will allow us time to
5:47 am
do that, have good stewardship for the taxpayers. >> brian: he knows that, what is point of blowing up your continuing resolution? it is you and chip roy he blew up, what is the point? >> yeah. well, we're having intense fellowship behind the curtain. we have a slim margin. this is reality of governing with small majority, we will get there, we will not shut the government down. i think cooler heads will prevail and get 12 bills we need. we have great leverage with white house and senate, we have to be in the best place to do that. >> brian: aren't you embarrassed, isn't your party embarrassed by the way they are acting? >> politics can be ugly sometime. you are seeing regular order. you don't see pass the bill now and read it later, you see the messy part of sausage making. we're optimistic, we'll get the job done. >> steve: you know part of the
5:48 am
team wants to get rid of the quarterback, the speaker and this there way of doing it. >> well, it may be. i think i'm optimistic everybody is operating in good faith, negotiation went late into the night last night. you have freedom caucus, moderate, everybody in the room trying to work this out, everybody has the same objective, cut this runaway spending, they added 10 trillion to federal spending over 10 years inure po. that is not trajectory we can continue. we will get it done. >> ainsley: pull together 218 votes and reconcile with the senate. we'll keep watching. we wish you the best this morning. >> steve: we'll be watching you. >> brian: still ahead, dr. fauci's fortune, how the former covid czar turned government salary into net worth of $10
