a manhunt is still underway for the suspect who gunned down united healthcare ceo brian thompson in midtown, manhattan yesterday. but, don't, there are more clues and new evidence. let's go live to the scene where fox news correspondent alexis mcadams is standing by. alexis, what can you tell us? >> hey, laura, so last night when we checked in with you, we kind 9 got of gist from the ground people in new york city. this was a skilled asass continue sin, right? he knew exactly what he was doing and might not have made many mistakes, tonight looks like more of a amateur according to sources on the ground. he left a few key pieces of evidence behind at the scene. some on purpose. he even went and bought a coffee down the road, laura before he gunned down the ceo. he left his d.n.a. there as well. take a look at your screen. you are looking at a picture of this suspect. is he smiling. i don't know about what, as he was checking in at nearby hostel on the city's upper west side. investigators telling me this person of interest was spotted

there and used a fake i.d. to check in. so he did that. he paid in cash. he forgot to hide his face. that's pretty important. he also wrote deny, depose and defend on those shell casings. what's that all about? those records pretty similar to a title of a book that was written back in 2010. it criticized the insurance business saying it was a react, asking why certain people weren't covered and others were. investigators are looking into that and other clues like how he went to that starbucks, bought a bottle of water about a half hour before he murdered someone. finishes it, throws it out in a trash. that's a mistake they have that as evidence now we're told. run that d.n.a. found on the bottle right through the system and hoping for a hit. investigators are also look into his cell phone, they say. it was a burner and he dropped it near the scene. listen. >> there is a cell phone recovered in the alleyway and once again we will process that forensically. >> okay, so the shooting was caught on camera, too.

the united healthcare ceo brian thompson walks there near the hilton in midtown and he is shot not once but at least two times. the first one in his leg. he falls and kind of looks back at the gunman and gets shot again. the gunman was waiting for thompson for quite some time i'm told. and it was a different type of gun. it wasn't commonly found in gun stores in the tri-state area. they are hoping that can help track him down. back out here live his life had also said, laura, there were lots of against against him. might be related to his. could be personal. still trying to figure that ow came to new york city without any corporate security makes 10 million bucks a year private healthcare. pretty high up in the company think he would have had security. other cases i have covered in chicago, too. the investigators also said the people that watch the closest with these cases are the suspect or suspects. so if the guy is watching somewhere around new york city or somewhere in the country reminder you left the d.n.a. at the starbucks and you also left your cell phone in the alley,

laura. >> laura: alexis, one thing that the "new york post" is reporting tonight is that there is new video that shows him strolling through the subway for 30 minutes before executing that united healthcare ceo. so, they are gathering more video late today of his movements throughout the city. and, yet, we still don't have him in custody tonight. but, for 30 -- just casually strolling about casually can strolling through the subway and starbucks. what else do you do? so many cameras in new york city and some cops in new york city. they are looking at surveillance videos and told by high level nypd source a short time ago they think they are on to this guy and think they will have an arrest in the coming days, laura. >> laura: he is moving through the subway system right before the killing. alexis, thank you very much. down in lower manhattan jurors

wrapped up day three of deliberations in the daniel penny trial. we just learned more about the jihadi leading the prosecution. she is a woman named daf that your ron, in her closing urged jurors to convict penny on manslaughter charges claiming his restraint of subway menacer jordan neely went too far wheel shy conceded penaltiy did the right thing. she knew that jordan neely was in great distress and dying and needlessly continued. so, again, in this case, involving daniel penny no leeway, no benefit of the doubt given to him who is a marine with no criminal record. but interestingly, back in 2019 with a deadly outcome, similar deadly outcome, you're ron took a different approach. she sought and secured a lighter sentence when an elderly man ended up falling to his death after he was robbed by a thug.

so without the robbery, the man would probably not have died. and the woman who wants to throw the book now at penny, bragged about what happened. >> he went into an atm on the upper west side rob an individual. unfortunately, it was an older individual. he was 86. and in the course of the robbery, he fell to the ground and as a result he died. the more i learned about the defendant and his life and the circumstances that one should take into account the trauma of that individual, sad to commit which robbery it. didn't include incarceratory sentence much lesser incarceratory sentence than he would have been subject to. >> laura: that woman, her entire presentation there says it all.

in that case, matthew lee was facing 25 to life, but thanks to youran only 20 years. seems happy about this outcome. this was the first time a manhattan d.a. used what is called restorative justice for homicide case. paul mauro watching that video. typical liberal do gooder d.a. who has caused so many problems in our country. george soros whatever she just said or restorative justice. felt bad came to this point. should this woman be on a case like badge penny's? >> well, if you are alvin bragg she should be because of course she is carrying the water for exactly what we saw in his day one memo which is to bend over backwards to make sure that nobody gets a quote, unquote car

sennal sentence. if there is a guilty conviction, a guilty verdict, that there may not be a carceral sentence they see how unpopular this case is and how ludicrous. almost backpedaling now. of course if you are going to do that, you shouldn't have brought the case to begin with going through a situation like that. most people wait for someone else to take action. it's just a natural human impulse, occasionally you're lucky enough to be in a situation where there is a man or woman willing to put his or her life on the line there is

such a thing as will progressive force and response to perceived threat. that's the way the law is across the country in a situation like this. most americans would want someone like penny there to help out. we didn't know what this man was going to do to the rest of the people in that car. they were terrified. >> of course, anybody on a new york subway how close that can feel. somebody gets on hoping not going to do something that's really scary the way this went. you are praying for a daniel penny and the proof of that is in the body cam footage that we have seen at the trial from the cops that showed up. all the people on that car were really grateful that daniel penny was there and did what he did. we have taken the measure a little bit of daniel penny. have you seen that interview with him we have heard a little

bit about his life. ask yourself this: if the person had got on and had been white, would daniel penny have done anything different? i would argue no and i would argue perhaps the only person who would not have done something different is alvin bragg. >> paul, neilly's father andrew zachery is now suing daniel penny, that's how these things usually go. this suit was filed in new york supreme court yesterday. accuses negligent contact, assault, battery that caused injuries and resulted in his son's if the verdict comes back

as guilty that's a higher. i don't know what went on between neely and his family. i do know that neely walked away from what is quote mandatory psychiatric treatment. that was the adjudication of one of his recent cases. he was out on a warrant because he had randomly punched an elderly woman on the subway. very clearly he fell through a lot of cracks here. where were all these people when neely needed them and of course when the people on that subway cash needed to be saved. >> laura: thank you very much. i don't know if you saw, this there were fireworks on capitol hill today when acting secret service director ronald rowe faced off with congressman pat fallon. it was during a hearing on the trump assassination attempt attempt. now fallon showed a photo of trump, biden and roe at ground zero on 9/11. and asked who was protecting the presidents. well, then this happened. >> congressman, what you're not

seeing is the sack of the detail off out of the picture's view. and that is the day where we remember the more than 3,000 people that have died on 9/11. i actually responded to ground zero. i was there going through the ashes of the world trade center. >> um. >>um i was there at fresh. >> i'm not asking you that i'm asking you. >> i was there. >> in charge. >> i was there to show respect for a secret service member that died on 9/11. >> you are trying to be. >> do not invoke 9/11 for political purposes. >> oh i'm not. i'm invoking it. >> you are, sir. you are out out of line. >> i would like to ask him a question. >> please. >> order. order. >> don't try bully me. [gavel] >> order. >> i'm an elected member of congress and i'm asking you a serious question. >> i'm a public servant who has served this nation. >> you won't answer the question. >> on our country's darkest day. do not politicize it. >> i'm asking you serious question for the american people. and they are very simple.

they are not trick questions. were there you the special agent in charge that day? >> i wasn't. i was there representing the united states secret service, sir. >> mr. fallon your time has expired. >> i was not in protective. >> you want to be visible because you were for this job and you are not going to get. >> fallen member of this agency. >> you are a danger. vice president. his life because you but the those agents out of position. did you have a radio with you? >> mr. chairman your time has expired. >> you are out of line. >> laura: should have just fought it out. honestly at that point just take the jackets off. oh, he had his jacket off already. that wasn't the only excitement on capitol hill today. the doge duo, elon and vivek were there, too. but no screaming. more on that later. and coming up, liberals are fighting to be able to -- so kids will be able to watch and access pornography. they say they aren't but they are. my angle explains, next. ♪

♪ >> laura: pornified culture and traumatized kids that's the focus of tonight's angle. we hear a lot about the figures about the need to empower girls

and women at school and sports and in the workplace. >> what does it mean to you when i say run like a girl? >> it means run as fast as can you. >> i think it's important to tell all girls that you can be whatever you want to be. >> we must empower women. when women succeed, all of society benefits. >> somehow, that powerful empowering message ended up turning us into, what? toddlers in tiaras, tweens and revealing mid drifts to teens in blouses that look more like bruce yeas. the fashion industry look pornified for years. because of the messages that this sends to perverts and deep general rats and what it does to girls' self-esteem staples of te

porn industry are now common practice by young people because they learn these degrading practices from the porn industry. and we know that the porn kings, what they create. addiction, emotional abuse, and violence. >> porn has gotten more violent over the years, so, therefore, there has been no violent tendency towards women during rape and dating mishaps. there is also subject occasion of women because of pornography, people who watch porn are less likely to act on sexual assault or violence when they see it they have been programmed to accept that's okay. >> this is why so-called non-nonsexual strangulation is now considered okay by increasing number of college students. told the "new york times" she has tracked a dramatic and rapid

rise in so-called rough sex. nearly two thirds of 5,000 female students surveyed said it had happened to them 12 and 17 for the first time they experienced. this again, sexual strangulation between partners. again, you can thank the porn industry. specifically websites like porn hub which are part of the industry's $100 billion global business. although stores aren't legally allowed to sell kids cigarettes or booze without seeing an id, somehow the porn industry has been free to profit off selling its toxic material to minors. and the consequences for both young women and men who can access this have been devastating. last spring the "new york times" described how to articles around the internet and social media

algorithms that feed young people but typically not their unsuspects parents hundreds of hashtag choke me daddy memes. mock and celebrate the potential for hurting or killing female partners. and the same elites who pretend to care so much about girls are culpable as well. remember in 2015 when all those suburban women were obsessed with the glorified gutter dive into mainstreaming porn otherwise known as "fifty shades of grey"? >> you a sadist? >> i'm a dominant. >> what does that mean? >> it means i want you to willingly surrender yourself to me. >> why would i do that? >> please me. >> to please you? how? >> i have rules. if you follow them, i will reward you. if you don't, i will punish you.

>> laura: the threat of punishment, he says there. and the threat of punishment and bondage is now marketed to girls online as sexual thrill seeking. peggy orrin stein wrote in the times by 2019, when a high school girl was choked in the pilot of hbo's euphoria it was standard fare. a young woman was choked in the opener of the idol again on hbo and also like the show euphoria created by sam levinson. what's with him? yeah, that's worth asking that question again. what is wrong with sam levinson? is that the new feminism we are supposed to want for our daughters, sammy? nice going. it's got son bad that emergency rooms are seeing more severe injuries from this twisted choking practice. which can even result in stroke and traumatic brain injuries.

and where consenting females often turn into domestic abuse victims. again the kinkier the better in the porn world. the depraved world that that lives in is accessible by anyone with an internet connection. it's destroying not just families and marriages, but now our young people. but why should we allow this as a society? why do we have to allow this as a society? don't we have a duty to protect minors from an industry that thrives on luring younger and younger people into their darker and darker world? >> for over 10 years they were master groomers. i was intimidated standing over me sign here, sign here, initial here. can i read these from like 9:00 p.m. to 4:00 in the morning i was raped. i tried to run naked from the hotel room at one point and there was someone outside of the door. and they are like okay, then we will put everything on the internet that we have right now with your full name or we will send it to your parents.

do you want them to find out? >> laura: that's the kind of stuff that's happening online. finally, americans are beginning to wake up. the texas state legislature passed hb-1 181 which requires age verification in order to access online sexual conduct. the law forced porn hub out of the state. a huge success in and of itself. now that group is firing back via another group called the free speech coalition which took texas to federal court arguing that hb-1 118 violates the first amendment by bourb burr burdenig adults right to access pornography and other sexual material. of course id doesn't burden access to porn than showing id before boarding a plane vital yours right to interstate travel. it's an absurd, ridiculous argument. the supreme court will hear arguments in this case on

january 15th: but, remember, with its powerful allies in the entertainment industry and big tech the porn industry is working 24/7 to drag our young people into their godless, vile world. the physical, mental and spiritual carnage is immeasurable. it is criminal. if we don't step up, what's next? i will tell you what's next. mainstreaming pedophilia. i know you are thi think, laura, just exaggerating, please. the nih is even seemingly getting in on the act. taking baby steps towards destigmatizing it. and watch out, everybody, for the hashtag map on social media sites. it stands for minor attracted persons. and books are now being written about how the map world is noblely pursuing a path of dignity.

adults who consider children as objects of sexual desire, they deserve dignity? just like girls and women deserve the privilege of being defiled, strangled, hit, spat upon, to fulfill their partner's porn fueled fantasies? fantasies by the way that are introduced to them on free porn websites and social media platforms. how can we live with ourselves if we allow this to continue? how can we look at ourselves in the mirror if we stand by and do nothing as our children are sucked into this abyss? even before porn exploded on the internet. the victims were trying to warn us like kidnapping victim elizabeth smart. >> i remember he pulled out this magazine full of hard core pornography and i remember he would just sit and look at it and stare at it and it just led to him raping me more, more than he already did, which was a lot. looking at pornography wasn't

enough for him. having sex with his wife, after looking at pornography it wasn't enough for him. he just always wanted more. i can't say that he would not have gone out and kidnapped me had he not looked at pornography. all i know is that pornography made my living hell worse. >> laura: she was 14 when she was kidnapped. we'll be watching how this age verification plays out. this case and who is on what side, which groups will side with the children and their innocence and which side with the porn peddlers. and that's the angle. joining me now is britney, former porn star turned pastor and peter general tell i can't,

senior sexual exploitation. peter, there's a lot happening in washington. a lot going on in politics. but, i felt it was so important to do this topic tonight what i see happening across the young people to our young people. i know you are acutely aware of the fact that the aclu is coming out against this texas law supporting groups like porn hub, saying that we're a less restrictive alternative exists for example the voluntary installation of filtering software on devices the government cannot impose age verification on adults in the name of protecting children. peter, your reaction tonight? >> hi, laura, it's good to be with you. it's ridiculous. that's my reaction. the american people are fed up with the most dangerous material in the world being available to children 24/7 through our

connected technology. and that's why the texas legislature did what it did when it passed house bill 118118 other states as well. age verification just makes sense, a child in the united states right now can't go into a brick and mortar retail store, like a walmart, and purchase sexually graphic material. purchase pornography. they can't go into a bookstore and purchase pornography. but they can go, uninhibited online to some of the largest websites in the world, who are making billions and billions of dollars off the most dangerous and violent material that's imaginable. so it's very reasonable for the texas state legislature, other state legislatures, and for congress to require websites that host pornography to have reasonable age verification measures in place, commercially reasonable ones so that there sat least another barrier. >> laura: you know, the aclu in

a statement the law is unconstitutional because it makes adults think twice about exercising their first amendment rights. this is a hilarious argument. i -- i wish i were arguing a case in the court. but, britney, in the 90's, girls gone wilds, those in the 90's, watch. >> it blew my mind what joe francis was able to convince these young girls to do. >> took no for an answer. >> i never thought that would come back and haunt me for 20 years. >> laura: britney, now it's 2024 and look at where -- look at how far we have sunk from that low point. britney, what do parents need to know tonight about how easy it is to get porn in the hands of young people on the internet? >> you know, anybody can go on any pornographic website. it will say are you 18? click enter if so you just click enter and boom, you are on porn.

beyond that with the social media something thats and ads and even ads that appear now on youtube, i mean, porn is easily accessible. and i stand forager verification because we need to protect young children. brittni, tell us about your own story you became a victim of the porn industry. you ended up becoming a zealous advocate for freeing, you know, yourself from porn, really quickly. how did you escape from this gutter of pornography? >> you know, it wasn't easy. i was in the porn industry from 18 to 25 years old. and i really felt trapped. it was my livelihood. it was all i knew for the last three and a half years that i was in the business. i was being trafficked as well. it was not easy. but i had just supernatural experiences with god. and there was a day that he told me you need to quit this industry.

and i would bless your life like no man ever could. the life i have for you will overflow with love and peace and joy. i really just took a step of faith, not knowing where i would go next. i put the industry behind and i called my mother to help me get away from the pitcher. and i have been out for over a decade. i have two beautiful children. i'm married to a wonderful man. and now we help people who are struggle glick with addictions to pornography. we also help industry workers who want to -- who want to exit the industry. we help them get out as well. we also try our best to protect children from stumbling on to things like pornography. >> laura: it's so important as we hear everything talking about the needs to protect the rights of sex workers. that's just normalizing, you know, sex work. you hear a lot of politicians on the left do that. that's not really helping them. that's just keeping them in a business that degrades them. i want to read a portion of the texas brief from the case. in 2006, just over 25% of children age 13 or younger were exposed to online pornography.

but, by 2022, that number more than doubled to 54%. smart phones were the -- you know, the way most peopled ended up accessing pornography. and in australia, a new study one in three teens learn about sex from violent pornography. peter, very quickly, how porn is age verification to try to stop this madness and all the damage that's being done to young men and women? >> absolutely, laura, yeah. age verification is the solution. it's being used widely in europe. and the only thing that's really holding it up now in the united states, is lawsuits like this one brought by the aclu. and by the large pornography websites that are trying to maintain the highest profit margins they possibly can. >> laura: well, again, on the mental health, on the physical well-being, emotional well-being, and spiritual well-being of our children, which is destroyed by the porn

industry, they do not care. britni and thank you. the doge clean up on the hill today. all you federal employees working from home. you are not going to like the next segment. ♪

lawyer the doge bros were on capitol hill meeting with lawmakers and possibly getting new folks on board. >> elon, do you know the to see democrats here? [inaudible] >> laura: yes, we are already seeing how they can work together. senators bernie sanders, -- senator bernie sanders has signaled support ro khanna and gerald moskowitz. we are told that vivek ramaswamy and elon musk didn't come to the hill today to pitch their ideas on how to cut government but was there to hear from the

lawmakers, like senator joni ernst. >> we, prior to covid, had 3% of the federal workforce that did telework. since covid, and after, now we only have 6% of our federal workforce actually going into work every single day. what an incredible turn around. >> laura: the angle has been talking about the federal workforce being at home, you know, a lot of them are on vacation for about four years. joining us now. citizens against government waste. thomas, according to a report by ernst' office, federal buildings cost taxpayers more than $15 billion to lease and maintain. how much can we cut, do you think there? >> that is an easy target. it has been on the government accountability office. high risk list since 2003. you have talked about it.

citizens against government waste has talked about it. something needs to get done. they need to pass legislation to make it easier to close and sell those properties. they need to bring people back to work. if they are not in an office, they need to measure their productivity and make sure that they are working. when they are teleworking and not doing something else, they could save billions of dollars taxpayers back to work are probably really upset about this. >> laura: elon musk's son is on his shoulders and he goes with him everywhere. that little boy has gotten an education. now, to that point, bloomberg is reporting that the biden administration caved to union demands to try to lock in hybrid work from home protections for tens of thousands of social security staff until 2029. thomas, when you say lock in, what is there to lock in? saying there is no changing that whatsoever and we don't know exactly how many federal employees would be affected? but it's just another scam

another example difficult it is what doge is trying to accomplish. there were a lot of factors in washington, d.c. a lot of opposition, the unions, members of congress who live around washington, d.c., when it's a tough battle trying to win. this should adno momentum to it. >> i think most americans don't realize that they are paying billions of dollars for federal workers who don't show up. i'm sorry, working from home, some people might be incredibly productive and save time and money but the cities are collapsing and the mayor of d.c. desperately wants people to come back to work. she should have thought about that years ago. she is desperate. businesses are failing in d.c. d.c. is like tent city. >> it's still a problem. and senator ernst in her report found in some agencies, up to

68% of the tele workers are misleading everyone about where they are working. they say they are in d.c. sometimes 2,000 miles away and getting paid like they live in d.c. >> yeah, so they get the best of both worlds, thomas, again i think we have been talking about this for four years when no one else was talking about it. thank you for everything you are doing. coming up, how trump is fueling a bit coign bonanza and what it really means a. built by those who dare to dream, those who push the limits, and those who serve. at bass pro shops, we stand with those who stand for our freedoms. proudly offering a legendary salute discount every day. and recently partnering with the army and air force exchange service, becoming the official outdoor gear provider for our heroes. because it's more than the great outdoors it's about honoring those who protect it. bass pro shops. voted america's best outdoor retailer. mega-heist! -yeah! -i can't go back to jail!

have a coin that's on a centralized ledger and the thing is it can be used without any intermediary. can you buy or send bitcoin without involving any government, without involving any bank. it's a libertarian idea basically restoring currency and that power to the people. and we have seen bitcoin, specific will he, the first crypto seen as the most reliable. we have seen it surge more than 40% since trump has been elected. that's because the past four years we have seen under biden's financial regulation they have really gone after crypto. you can't ban bitcoin but make it very difficult for companies crypto focused to operate here. that's what we have seen the last four years. trump is proposing the most pro-bitcoin crypto agenda we have ever seen. one of the things he has mentioned is just the way that we have a gold reserve, he wants to create a bitcoin reserve. also talked about other ideas

like eliminating tax on crypto exchanges and as you mentioned in your intro, laura, he has appointed a very pro-crypto sec commissioner and sec chair is responsible for regulating wall street and the financial industry. >> laura: larry summers former treasury secretary just completely threw cold water on this idea of having a bitcoin reserve in the united states. thinking that that was a really bad idea. yet, you have cities in the united states, miami is kind of leading in crypto. you have countries like el salvador, really operating just with crypto and many government exchanges. so, this is fascinating if you invested in bitcoin just a few years ago you have made at love money. just as trump has got elected you made big money. people are afraid. maybe don't be afraid anymore. lydia, thank you so much. coming up, the left's newest

other injections and other things that could totally change your reproductive life forever. it's the same thing. >> the mental gymnastics that they have to do to try to justify this is really olympic level. to make it clear, mutilation is not care. sterilization is not care. using children, using minors as guinea pigs for your sick social experiment is not inclusion or tolerance or diversity. quite frankly i believe it's child abuse and that's why my state stood up for this and stood up for young people, protecting young people. i hope the supreme court will do the right thing. a lot of these treatments whether they are puberty blockers or chopping up body parts are irreversible and these patients end up being far -- big pharma customers for life. you have to follow the money here. a lot of it has to do with parents who simply can't get enough attention on tiktok so

they use their children as bait. enough of this with big pharma and big medicine taking advantage of young people. it's got to stop. >> yesterday these activists took over the women's bathroom on capitol hill. check this out. >> other protesters doing similar things were arrested. first of all the bathroom dance party never a good idea. in this case, how serious do they appear? >> this is another example of the biden administration bringing decency back to washington, d.c. i will also tell you this, it was eight years ago that we had thousands of women march on washington, d.c., for the

so-called women's march. the me too movement which was centred around consent. i do believe a lot of biological women are consenting to having biological men in their spaces in their sports, in their locker rooms, in their bathrooms. they don't want to have that around them. the fact that they are making a mockery of this, you have to wonder where are the feminists, i haven't seen them around lately. goes to show they are only about hating men and abortion. >> great to have you on, thank you so much and the protests are really dumb. that's it for us tonight, make sure to watch the angle again or send it to your friends. going to post it later because that issue of the... and young people, we are going to protect you and you are going to like it, it's better to be protected. jesse watters takes it from here ♪ ♪
