10:01 pm
conclusion right now that diversity had something to do with this crash. >> because i have common sense. and unfortunately, a lot of people don't. >> a black hawk helicopter smashes into an american airlines jet. no survivors. what's going on? >> this is a tragedy that should not have happened. >> the best attacks on me are going to be false the attacks e false accusations and grossman's characterizations. the only thing this body is doing is defeating the credibility of the men and women of the fbi. >> jesse: cash was money at today's hearing. >> if you are not taking off some people, you are not doing her job right. >> sometimes giving messaging advice democrats is like having [bleep] kid matches. >> jesse: even the democrats don't like the democrats. >> come on, make it [bleep] believable. >> jesse: plus... >> the ones who should be deported are the white people because no white people belong in this country. ♪ ♪
10:02 pm
>> jesse: fox news alert. we have breaking new details in the tragic helicopter crash. we're getting reports of air traffic control staffing issues at reagan national airport at the time of the collision that killed 67 people, including children. mark meredith is there with more. mark? >> jesse, that evening to you. we learn moments ago that debris removal is going to begin tomorrow. that d.c. fire and ems will have crews out tomorrow as security to make sure that the wreckage remains where it is but that tomorrow they will begin the process of moving it as they continue with this recovery operation. american airlines has its ceo in town and you can imagine there are so many different federal agencies that are just beginning to comb through and trying to piece together exactly what happened. it was all most wenyi four hours ago when this whole incident began where we can see from cameras after the black hawk helicopter collided with the american airlines regional jet
10:03 pm
with 64 passengers -- 64 people on board, including four crew members. as we were looking to see exactly what happened, they've been saying they weren't going to rush to judgement and that this was going to take some time. but president trump strongly suggest he believes the military helicopter may have been flying too low. >> the helicopter should have been 1000 feet for 500 feet above it or something below it. the plane was at three or 400 feet. the plane should have been stopped because the helicopter could have stopped. the plane cannot be stopped. >> a preliminary report is expected to take at least a month. there were reports that staffing at the reagan airport tower may not have been what was needed but official stress it is simply too early at this point to determine and it is something they will look at and obviously have the records of who was in the tower at that time. but it also appears when we are from federal investigators that nobody had any time onboard the regional jet to react.
10:04 pm
>> right now we're going through the fields. nothing we have seen would indicate that may be these were the problem. it was very rapid impact. we have seen nothing in that regard so far from the evidence we have but we still need to verify all of that information. >> reporter: members of congress are demanding more answers from federal investigators as they want to know because of course so many of them fly ended out of this airport. jesse, i've been out your most 24 hours myself and there is a sharp difference in terms of far fewer aircraft, including the helicopters that would normally be patrolling the skies of d.c. have not been out there. they resumed air traffic around 11:00 this morning. we have seen more and more jets come in but it is nothing like what would normally be out of here. i think you have been to this airport, you can imagine how busy it is going to be. you're learning a lot more about the victims in this case but no full passenger manifest and it is likely we will learn more details about exactly who was on board tomorrow. jesse? >> jesse: thank you so much.
10:05 pm
one witness described it as a big ball of fire and wreckage just falling down towards the river. here is what it sounded like in the tower. >> this is alert three, crash. this is alert three. it is off the approach into the runway. helicopter crash. >> jesse: this is the deadliest disaster in america since 9/11. no one is blaming the american airlines pilots, planes cannot get out of the way is easiest choppers. the black hawk pilots were preexperienced. the mail pilot had 1000 hours under his belt. the female pilot had 500. so what happened? tonight we are learning that the air traffic control tower at reagan national was understaffed. "the new york times" breaking the story that one controller was doing the job of two. the controller, who is handling helicopters was also instructing planes that were landing and departing from it's runways.
10:06 pm
that is not normal. that means you are using two frequencies and the plane pilots cannot hear the helicopter pilots. reagan national has had staffing shortages for a while. they are supposed to have 30 air traffic controllers in the tower. they only had 19. this is the busiest runway in america and they are down 11 guys. in fact,, "washington post" is reporting that just on tuesday, another jet trying to land aborted and had to make a second approach after a helicopter appeared on this flight path. the president briefed the nation this morning and said dei could be a factor. >> i do want to point out that various articles that appeared prior to my entering office and here is one. the faa diversity push includes focusing on hiring people with severe intellectual and psychiatric disabilities. that is amazing. brilliant people have to be in
10:07 pm
those positions and their lives are actually shortened very substantially shortened because of the stress. when you have many planes coming into one target. and you need a very special talent and a very special genius to be able to do it. secretary pete, that guy is a real winner. and how badly every thing has been run since he ran this department of transportation? it is a disaster. he was a disaster as a mayor, he ran his city into the ground and he is a disaster now. he just has a good line of bull. >> jesse: anytime you mention dei pack the press goes crazy because that is there baby. >> to be know the names of the 67 people who were killed? and you are blaming democrats and dei policies and air traffic control. do you think you're getting ahead of the investigation right now? >> i don't think so at all. with the names of the people, you mean the names of the people that are on the plane?
10:08 pm
you think that will make a difference? they are a group of people that have lost their lives. if you want a list of the names, we can be giving that very soon with coordination with american airlines. we're in coordination very strongly obviously with the military. but i think it is not a very smart question. i'm surprised coming from you. >> jesse: and the dei defenders did not stop. >> i'm trying to figure out how you can come to the conclusion right now that diversity had something to do with this crash? >> because i have common sense, okay? and unfortunately a lot of people don't. we want brilliant people doing this. this is a major chess game at the highest level. when you have 60 planes coming in during a short period of time and they are all coming in different directions and you're dealing with a very high level computer work and very complex computers -- one of the other things i will tell you is that the systems that were built -- i was going to rebuild the entire
10:09 pm
system and then we had an election that didn't turn out the way it should have. >> jesse: we don't know what factor dei played here. could have been a mechanical issue, could have been medical. they have just recovered one of the black boxes in this investigation that will tell us the truth. but when dei is in place, which it was here, standards get lower. staffing is affected. and when there is a disaster like this, it makes everyone naturally suspicious. late in the obama-biden administration 1000 well-qualified air traffic control applicants were rejected for not being diverse enough. that caused staffing shortages r and the biden administration was sued for discriminating against qualified white applicants. the covert shutdowns did not help staffing either. they stopped training controllers for two years. how are air traffic controllers not essential workers? i have no idea. and this dei thing is not just a
10:10 pm
race thing. biden instituted dei quotas at the faa in order to recruit workers who were deaf, vision impaired, missing limbs, completely paralyzed, epileptic. people who were severely intellectually disabled. psychiatrically disabled. and dwarfs. this was biden's faa just two years ago. >> we need a diverse group of air-traffic controllers to bring distinct perspectives to handle the ever-changing aerospace landscape. i'm calling on students and alumni from hbc, the hispanic serving institutions and tribal colleges to apply now to become air-traffic controllers. >> jesse: prime time also found this little slideshow from the biden faa titled rethinking diversity. and it says, quote, diversity plus inclusion equals better performance r is that true?
10:11 pm
a major problem was that the faa could not even fill their own dei quotas. according to lawsuits, they discriminated against qualified candidates to hire diverse candidates but they weren't able to hire enough diverse candidates. air-traffic control towers are short-staffed across the country. the agency has 1000 fewer certified controllers today than it did one decade ago. only 1% of air-traffic facilities met they are staffing targets last year. 1%. why is the faa the only agency the federal government that short-staffed? every other agency has the opposite problem. they have too many personnel. only at the faa can they not find enough people. is that because you cannot work remotely to be an air traffic controller? and it is not about money. biden and trump spent the exact same amount on the faa. this is about mismanagement. and that is the presidents point.
10:12 pm
>> are you saying race or gender played a role in this tragedy? >> it may have, i don't know. incompetence may have played a role though. we will let you know that. but we want the most competent people, we don't care what race they are, we want the most competent people, especially in these positions. and you're talking about extremely complex things. and if they don't have a great brain, a great power of the brain they are not going to be very good at what they do and bad things will happen. >> jesse: this is about competence and it starts at the top. and less than 24 hours, the president came out, held an open-ended press conference with the secretaries of transportation and defense and his vp. and then took questions in the oval and signed a presidential memo to get the bottom of things. as a reminder, this is who joe biden nominated to run the faa. >> what airspace requires a transponder? quickly, please. >> thank you for the question, senator. not try can answer that question
10:13 pm
right now. >> what are the types of special use airspace that protect this national security that appear on charts? quickly, please. >> sorry senator, i cannot answer that question. >> where the operational limitations of a pilot flying under basic med? >> thank you for the question senator. i am not a pilot. >> can you tell me with the minimum separation distance is for landing and departing airliners during the daytime? >> i don't want to guess on that. >> do know the difference between those two? do you know the difference there? >> i cannot. >> jesse: that guy had to withdraw his nomination because he was so unqualified. we have had mechanical issues with boeing jets act tulsi gabbard was put on a tsa watch list. we have had near misses over and over again. these things should never happen in the united states of america. and it crashed like this should never happen again. our hearts and prayers go to the
10:14 pm
victims, we're so sorry for the loss. this is such a senseless tragedy. but a sad day for this country. the former deputy assistant to the secretary of defense, amber smith joins me now. amber, you flew helicopters and you listened to air-traffic controllers when you land and take off. here's the air traffic controller moments before the crash when he asks the chopper pilot if they can see the plane. listen. >> jesse: as a former chopper pilot, how do you think that communication was between the helicopter and air-traffic control? >> it was a failure of communication. i said this from the very beginning.
10:15 pm
i was an army helicopter pilot for almost eight years, i got well over 1500 hours. that communication between them and the flight crew was, unfortunately, ended up being deadly. it is clear that the helicopter crew claims that they had visual on the incorrect aircraft. but if you go a little bit deeper, there was zero context to what was said. they did not say, do you have the air-traffic at your 11:00 that is about to cross in front of your flight path? not once. so that may work having a singular, do you see the traffic in front of you in the middle of the desert in arizona where there is no other traffic. and a place like the national capital region where the traffic is intense, where there are lights everywhere that can be distracting and as well, seen as a different aircraft, you cannot be giving those types of calls
10:16 pm
which are clearly confusing and sadly resulted in this absolutely deadly crash because of this mist communication we have seen. >> jesse: so you believe the air-traffic controllers were poor communicators and those communications were inefficient and inadequate for what was happening in the sky. in your experience and your understanding of these air-traffic controllers, there is understaffing, there is an dei problem there. do you think that could have been a factor? >> i do. and where is the standard? when reports came out that the tower was likely understaffed by a third, if not more, what is the standard? what percentage are they allowed to go down to to cease operations until they are able to be a functioning tower? because clearly they were not. this is a high stress operation,
10:17 pm
the stakes are incredibly high. and who any leadership decision decided that they were able to operate a tower at that level of manning? it is mismanagement, the dei aspect needs to get looked into because it focuses on people's feelings rather than people's lives. merit is what allows people to be put in these positions to be the best person for the job. just as we saw in your opening were you talked about dei pulling in these people to make other people feel better at the risk of other people's lives. when people say dei is deadly, it is not because it is some catchy phrase. it is because the reality of what happens when you change the standards, you lower the standards to put people in these positions in order for them to get the job. otherwise you would never be able to get these jobs. >> jesse: thank you so much for your insight and analysis.
10:18 pm
we are waiting on this black box to be cracked open and analysed and we will get a full investigation hopefully sooner rather than later. think you so much. >> thank you jesse. >> jesse: cash patel dunking on democrats. plus jhonny. >> should you be hired on your race or the work you can do? >> the work you can do, no question about it. if i don't know how to build a

10:24 pm
know the problem of corruption is not just in the federal agencies, it is in congress to. almost all members of this panel are accepting -- including yourself, are accepting millions of dollars from the four to suitable administration. >> oh, no,, no, no, no. i got millions and millions of contributions. they did not come from the executives. not one nickel of pac money from the pharmaceuticals. >> in 2020, you were the single largest -- >> because i had contributions! >> jesse: tulsi gabbard is up to be trump's director of national intelligence and she came out swinging. >> those who oppose my nomination imply that i am loyal to something or someone other than god, my own conscious and the constitution of the united states. accusing me of being trump's puppet, pootmans puppet, other puppets. not recognizing the absurdity of simultaneously being the puppet
10:25 pm
of five different puppet master's. the same tactic was used against president trump and failed. the american people elected president trump with a decisive victory and mandate for change. the fact is, what truly unsettles my political opponents is that i refuse to be there puppet. >> jesse: and cash patel put on a master class during his hearing to become america's new fbi director. he's a former doj prosecutor and chief of staff at the pentagon who exposed cross fire, hurricane any hunter biden laptop cover up. the intelligence agencies actually leak his personal records as payback. >> having been the victim of government overreach against weaponize to system of just this and law enforcement, i know what it feels like to have the full weight of the united states government barreling down on you. i will make sure that no american is subjected to death threats like i was.
10:26 pm
and subjected to moving their residences like i was because of government overreach. because of leaks of information about my personal status. if confirmed as fbi director, mr. chairman, you have my commitment that no one in this country will feel that pain. >> jesse: kash has a tough job ahead of him, he has to corrode -- expose the corruption in the government will at the same time fighting crime. we may even get to know the truth about january sixth. >> while you were chief of staff at dod, coming times did dod approach capitol police and ask if they needed national guard assistance? >> i believe those letters are well documented. numerous instances and numerous of those instances, those requests were shut down. >> am i correct that the capital sergeant at arms sit assistance was unnecessary? >> that is correct, senator. >> who did the sergeant at arms report to? >> the speaker of the house. >> that would have been nancy pelosi at the time, is
10:27 pm
that correct? >> yes, senator . >> and with that also be chuck schumer then, the senate majority leader? >> the sergeant at arms, yes senator . >> jesse: the democrats fear him r and i think you know why. >> on the podcast he ask you, the capitol police and that fake generally sixth committee that they didn't tell the truth, did they? patel, no. not just them, many others and lying under oath is a federal offence and they should be investigated for it. do you believe that about the police officers? >> that is a general statement and a mischaracterization of what i said, i encourage you to read the rest of the interview. this is why snippets of information are often misleading and detrimental to this committees advice and consent. >> if you consent i would love to have five hours of questions and then i could read the whole transcript. >> you have 2 minutes. >> wow. >> jesse: the entire hearing was republican senators asking him about crime, justice and accountability and the democrats just cherry-picking things he's said on podcasts.
10:28 pm
>> you said fbi agents were responsible for the violence on january sixth. and i quote you here, beyond a reasonable doubt. is that what you said? >> that is completely incorrect and i appreciate the opportunity to address that. >> i will give you that in writing but this is my time now. >> have against. >> do you think that america is safer because of the 1600 people have been given an opportunity to come out of serving their sentences and live in our communities again? >> senator, i have not looked at all 1600 individual cases. i have always advocated for imprisoning those that cause harm to our law enforcement and civilian communities. i also believe america is not safer because president biden's commutation of a man who murdered two fbi agents. >> jesse: he has the endorsements of all the major sheriffs and police organizations but he is hated by guys like adam schiff. >> you have made a lot of people
10:29 pm
mad, avenue? mr. patel? >> it seems so, senator. >> think maybe you made the right people mad? >> as my fbi agents, once told me, when i was running cases with them across this country and around the world, if you are not taking off some people, you are not doing the job right. >> jesse: he promised he wasn't out for revenge, doesn't have an enemies list and that he disagreed with trump's commutation of january sixth people who assaulted cops. remove them from the borough and fighting crime will be the man's mission. senator josh hawley is on the judiciary committee and joins me now. we will get a lot of disclosure from kash patel, especially on january sixth. but will that look like, senator? >> number 1 it will look like a change just because what we have for the last four years is nothing but stonewalling and lies from the fbi and the fbi director when he has come before congress. on the world deserves to know,
10:30 pm
american people deserve to know exactly what the fbi rule was in january sixth. they also deserve to know what the fbi has been doing with its time while they have been pursuing january sixth defendants, they have not been putting drug kingpins behind bars, they have not been going after child traffickers, they have not been going after the drug cartels. it is time to get the fbi focused on, i don't know, criminals again and actually putting violent criminals behind bars? i think he will do that. >> jesse: democrats looked terrified. not really equipped to handle a guy like him? are we going to learn things about butler? will be learned things about the palm beach attempt? what else will be find out here? >> something he told me, he pledged to me that he would open the books on what you just said. he would open the books on the assassination attempts, you would open the books on the fbi lying to court when they lied to get wiretaps on president trump the first time around. he would open the books on all of their corruption. so you better believe that democrats are worried because
10:31 pm
they have been sharing this on for the last four years. they talk about enemies list and political persecution, the fbi has been there personal plaything, "leased fbi headquarters has been for the last four years and they are scared to death that he will end it. they're not worried he will actually persecute political opponents, they are worried he will stop the fbi doing that because that is what they have been doing the last four years. >> jesse: it looks like he will be confirmed. tell me about tulsi gabbard and rfk jr. what are your colleagues on the republican side thinking here? >> i hope they are listening carefully to what both nominees said. i got to talk to rfk today under oath at the hearing, i thought he did spectacularly. he was honest, direct and forthright. as for tulsi gabbard, here is her real sin in the eyes of so many of the washington establishment of both parties. person is that she challenge the surveillance state. she told the truth about the government spying on americans and about the abuses. she went out there and was honest about it and for that she is getting absolutely roasted
10:32 pm
and persecuted. that is the real issue here. and i hope that republicans will look at both of these individuals and say these are truth tellers, these are people who will disrupt the status quo and they will get their agencies, the government back to serving the american people and telling us the truth, would not be refreshing? >> jesse: do republican colleagues understand what will happen if they bow down tulsi gabbard? >> i don't know. and i have to tell you, i'm worried by what i hear from some of my republican colleagues. i'm worried that her nomination may be in jeopardy. and i'm just worried about what that will mean. it will mean that the reforms that we desperately need in the intelligence space -- let's not pretend everything is fine and dandy an hunky-dory, it is not. besides the fact that they have missed major issues and besides the fact that they'd missed lettuce on covid for so long, we need reform to stop the abuse of things like section 702, stop spying on americans.
10:33 pm
i hope tulsa gabbert gets confirmed because we need that kind reform. >> jesse: now i'm worried that you are worried and that's not a good thing. tell me about a conversation you had today with the people investigating this horrific plain chopper crashed. what do we know? >> the thing that really struck me -- i talked the head today and got the latest on the investigation as it begins to unfold here, hears really struck me. that helicopters, helicopter flight patterns overlay commercial flight patterns in the reagan national airport area. what does that mean? it means military helicopters or freak only, i was told, in the same airspace as commercial jetliners, including at 9:00 p.m. at night as what happened last night. the thing we have to ask ourselves, is that a good idea? do we really want overlapping flight patterns? to be really want all of that crowded airspace jammed in like that? i think we need to ask ourselves how we are best keeping our civilians safe as they come in on these planes. there is a lot to learn.
10:34 pm
they're just starting their investigation but we need answers and i want to make clear to everybody and authority here, the american public deserves to know exactly what happened. and we need to know it sooner rather than later. >> jesse: senator hawley, thank you so much, "to talk to you. >> thank you. >> jesse: trump just started to trade wars r charlie kirk is up n
