8:09 pm
the fox news at night common sense department is still mulling over the nonsensical statement made by texas democrat congresswoman jasmine who for the record, is against putting some of the savings from a d.o.g.e back into the pockets of american taxpayers. d.o.g.e will lead to smaller government leading to fewer jobs. leading to recession. and getting money back to the government won't help or as she said, quoting here, i don't know what $5000 will do for you! common sense things instead of her telling americans they don't need $5000 maybe americans get the 5000, and decide for themselves how to use it. she also said quote, we are not in business of giving up money. funny because when it came to reparations she was totally in the business of giving out money, lots of money! maybe this time she could amend her statement and say, not in the business of giving out money to those here legally, because she and her party love to give
8:10 pm
out free money to those here illegally. to the tune of tens of billions of dollars. common sense has a sneaking suspicion that congresswoman jasmine actually likes giving up money! she does not like trump giving out money. because she knows and people get money, they get happy. and the appreciate those who gave them the money! let's bring in california assemblywoman alexandra and former g.o.p. national spokesperson elizabeth. great to have a both on, i want to play some sound elizabeth for you on jasmine here is kind of what she said today, about d.o.g.e money, and how we should not give it to anybody, watch. >> what they are going to do is, hey, we want to give you a refund but congress won't let us because they already know that there is no money for that. no, we are not in the business of giving out money and honestly, i don't know what
8:11 pm
$5000 will do for you. >> trace: you give us the money, we will decide, what you think? >> i have been saying the democrats are out of touch for quite some time now. they have been listening because now they are just saying it themselves. i hope people are listening that is all i can say but there was a time and we had to tell the american people why you might not work out for them. we don't even have to do that anymore, they are not good at covering up anything anymore. we know exactly what they want, they want money for themselves, the better the less money for the megan people! it is very clear they do not serve the american people, those who elected them put them in the place that they are like donald trump and elon musk. they serve only themselves and those who i guess fund their campaigns, a giant problem again it is so blatant. >> trace: it really is, here are some big time d.o.g.e headlines, here is the washington begin, a d.o.g.e finds $2 million in taxpayer
8:12 pm
funds earmarked, abrams link to group independent, d.o.g.e claiming 4.7 trillion in treasury payments untraceable "new york post" d.o.g.e finds nearly 40 billion in spending linked to government issued credit cards, democrats are continuing to cry. d.o.g.e, nobody likes all these cuts but they are clawing things back including, the bullet train in california. >> absolutely, the taxpayers deserve transparency of where their money is going. and with the biden administration did was make sure there is layers that we were not able to know that. the fact that they were doing tough with credit cards and getting funding to democrats empowered lawmakers, tells you exactly how much waste is going on in our government and it is only beginning. >> trace: mike waltz by the way, national security advisor talking about zelenskyy at the white house briefing today, saying the following. >> some of the rhetoric coming
8:13 pm
out of kyiv frankly, insults the president trump are unacceptable rather than enter constructive conversation about what that deal should be, going forward, we have a lot of rhetoric in the media that was incredibly unfortunate. >> trace: rhetoric was unfortunate, is this kind of falling apart elizabeth, or is a part of the process? >> i think it's a little bit of both. obviously this is part of the process for president trump who came in to office with the goal of putting this war behind us and putting it to an end. at the same time a lot of people have to get used to that change. rhetoric worked for quite some time in those countries people actually believe that we should be spending our tax dollars on this war, this never ending war that have no solution and no victory for any side. now, they realize rhetoric does not actually work the american people are on to their game, we want to know where our money is going, we want a war like this one like so many people that have lost their lives.
8:14 pm
he wanted to come to an end. and we are going to hold our leaders accountable and that includes who they negotiate with overseas. >> trace: something up personal do today, you got targeted here by tomato throwing it's kind of unbelievable here tell us what happened. >> secretary duffy was out here today and he called for an audit of the high speed rail program and said, we want to know where this money is going because we have nothing to show for it. the entire time we were there talking there was protesters outside and so i said, i would not give them answers and have a reasonable conversation. i was treated by people dressed as dinosaurs and clowns and when i tried to address them i had a tomato thrown at me. i knew there was no reasoning with them and i exited the situation. >> trace: are you totally fine? you are in good shape right? >> with the cost of food are we really wasting produce?
8:15 pm
i know tomatoes are not in season. >> trace: we talked about today and later, the terror attack in israel today, and the story of the mother that had two children killed, the bodies were all turned over. and it turns out from israeli sources that it is not the body. this is significant. >> it is, i want to speak to people not as a jewish person. but as a human being, we are in the year 2025, there are terrorists getting away with not only kidnapping children, overturning their bodies after murdering them. and actually playing jokes on israel and returning a corpse god forbid we even know where it came from. this is being allowed in 2025, we are a civilized society, people should be in the street screaming but they are screaming for hamas.
8:16 pm
it's a giant problem. >> trace: elizabeth, alexandra, thank you both. >> cash patella mark my words, will cause evil in the building behind us and republicans a vote for him will rue that day! nobody is a more dangerous person than cash patella. this political hack does not deserve to be in this building. >> this is a real danger and a real threat. >> trace: democrats having a hard time dealing with cash patel confirmation as the pick for fbi let's bring in former fbi special agent fox news contributor nicole, it's great to have you on the show. you heard the democrats, this seem -- the theme seems to be that he is evil and dangerous, what is your take on cash patel being the new fbi director? >> trace, this is a very
8:17 pm
monumental moment in our nation's history because i can tell you as an fbi agent who walked away because it was completely political and socially weaponized, this is a day of hope and i know the fbi agents current and former retired across the board are very excited about this opportunity. as an fbi agent you take a lot of pride in your work, you take it very seriously and it is important that you are being led by true leaders who actually care about the mission of the fbi. i think what cash patel is going to do is put things back on track, he is going to let the good cops be good cops like he said, he believes in full transparency and he really wants to restore the trust of the american people. at the end of the day, the taxpayers are the boss of the fbi and i think that is the problem, the culture of the fbi needs to take a shift. it's actually the needs of the american people and i firmly believe that those who were staying concerned, that is just
8:18 pm
in my opinion complete nonsense, they are afraid of change. we need change at the fbi, we need good solid change in leadership and i think that is absolutely what cash patel is going to bring to the fbi. >> trace: i know we heard some negative comments from democrats but i was kind of struck by this comment by vermont senator peter he said the following, watch! >> cash patel is a crown jewel, in this lawless rampage. he is an instrument of donald trump's efforts to destroy the justice department and the fbi. he willingly agrees to carry out the vengeance to the work of donald trump. >> trace: vengeance is talking points, nothing substantive be able able to give to the debate. >> right, whether that individual is not understanding the fbi and doj have been politically weaponized, that is the problem. and he will say, let's let the
8:19 pm
fbi do their job. they want to put the back people behind bars to uphold the constitution and protect the american people. that is the problem! it is been politically weaponized and he will go in and fix that, he will transform it and he will be fair. another thing that i love about his mission is transparency. there has been little to no transparency with the fbi and that is absolutely essential. again american people deserve the trusted the number 1 law enforcement agency and the fbi agents deserve to trust. there are good people trying to do the right thing for the right reasons and the others that are politically and socially motivated. to push the political and social agenda. there needs to be one fbi, for the american people, that is what they deserve and i believe that is what cash patel is going to do. >> trace: i think this is instructive, i want to put this out. so everybody knows what the feeling about the fbi is. this is fbi doing an excellent
8:20 pm
or good job in 2024, it is 41%! in 201957%! that is 16-point drop did not happen because things are going well. >> that is exactly right, again i did not leave the fbi because things are going so well. it was very difficult to do my job but i was going out to try and recruit sources and they would say, are you one of the problematic fbi agent? are you somebody i can trust? that is not something american should wonder, when you go to do your job and you are an fbi agent it should be, we trust you! they destroyed that trust but under cash patel leadership, it's going to be coming back and that is what the fbi need. >> trace: nicole, great to get your talking points on this we appreciated! coming up officially one month in president trump second term term, how is the d.c. swamp healing? -- feeling?

8:27 pm
>> it's a disaster. >> i'm not very pleased. >> he's doing exactly what he did on the campaign trail. >> doing things differently. >> nothing! i don't have any thoughts because i'm trying to figure out what is going to happen in the next four years. >> do you think he is doing anything good? >> no! >> what did he do? >> no! >> under joe biden... >> i think he's making the government less efficient actually. >> we have to go back to work, but i work every day. >> do think it's important that businesses get audited sometimes to see where the money goes? >> i don't buy it. >> what is he done? >> his team is taking an inside look into the government to see

8:29 pm
>> that has what has been happening the past four years! >> arresting criminals? taking them off the street and putting them in jail? >> that's common sense. >> i think i should not even have to answer these questions, absolutely. >> it can be fixed very easily, that's common sense. >> 100%! >> definitely, i would agree with that. >> it's interesting because when you hear doj, it's like they are stripping funds away but then we are having musicals for "sesame street". >> i think we found a more common sense tonight here in washington, d.c.,. >> trace: bingo common sense mugs all around meantime let's
8:30 pm
bring in the media panel walk away spokesperson natalie, and american value spokeswoman, halen. thank you both for coming on, natalie to you first former democratic advisor said this, i think he gets it, watch! >> we found the common sense test, rather than saying, anybody in the right mind would say, should end it. instead we scream about everything and so when we find stuff in our opinion probably is not worthy of a discussion, the average voter says forget all you do was scream no! and they are crazy. >> trace: what he is saying is that they are crying wolf. everything trump says they states terrible and when they have a good point, nobody believes them. >> a much better look for the democrats to actually admit that may be there is some bloat, maybe some ways to cut what j.d. vance was saying today that we were paying for afghanistan women to have modern art lessons and toilets, i think democrats
8:31 pm
should be able to admit maybe we don't actually need that. it would be much more sensible for the democrats to just be honest about this especially because they are the working class. >> trace: the honest, tell it like it is. she minute -- she mentioned it j.d. vance and he took a swipe at cnn at cpac. he made this point, watch. >> more executive orders then they have viewers. hello to our friends at cnn. i actually think that their plan was ever going to go all in on anti-trump and hope that he could save cnn in the same way he did frankly in 2017 because nobody watched the network until he became president in 2017. >> trace: it's kind of like natalie and i were talking about the cry will version in the media where everything is bad and credibility kind of drips away.
8:32 pm
>> that is exactly, j.d. vance coming in with that mike dropped. that was iconic. he was not trolling cnn he actually was laying out why cnn business model failed and this is how i look at it. you look back at 2016, trump was in office and cnn became at this airport watching channel. to the trump hating network. in 2021 he left office and so did cnn's entire audience. now here we are and it's like cnn is showing up on the doorstep of the ex-boyfriend trying to relive the glory days, but here's the difference, the american people are not falling for it anymore. they voted for countability, they voted for credibility, devoted to drain the swamp, and they voted for the mainstream media to actually tell them the truth. they are not falling anymore, i'm not sure how cnn's audience is going to rate compared to donald trump's pen. >> trace: speaking of cnn
8:33 pm
former cnn pond and said this on news nation, about the media, his opinion? watch! >> they have a blind spot with trump. no idea he proposes even a good idea, it again, if proposed by republican president, they would say maybe, but because it is trump and because the loathing is so intense, they hate him! >> trace: what happens is, because their coverage is based on emotion it a comp -- it comes across like that instead of being well thought out. >> after they assured us that he would never be. i think they painted themselves into a corner because if he is a vicious dictator you should be against everything he said and does. if you are kind of friendly to them sometimes and you have an honest assessment money does good things, maybe he is not a
8:34 pm
malicious dictator. the american people are tired of it, jon stewart said it we cried wolf. the media had cried wolf for the past 10 years and we used up all of our fascist bullets. >> trace: yes, then you have people who go down tomorrow largo who have breakfast and laughed and then they say he is hitler back on the sets. meantime tommy the pod save america podcast said this about the effect it is all having. >> trump is using supports in a really smart way politically i think he went to college football games in -- and football during... it feels like it's crating a bond with the audience the democrats don't have. >> trace: creating a bond with young people, because the young people are gravitating towards him. >> absolutely we are seeing such a large cultural shift right
8:35 pm
now, and president donald trump is sitting perfectly at that intersection of politics, pop culture sports, entertainment, and this young -- these young people, my generation, the generation z are no longer apathetic anymore. there is momentum, they are excited and they are engaged. guess what? this was a mandate from them and from the american people to do exactly what donald trump is doing and they are here for it. >> trace: thank you both. coming up significant breaking news in the middle east, in the reports by the idf say one of the bodies returned by hamas was not thought of sherry! the mother of two young hostages who were also killed.

hostage returned by hamas terrorist, christine is live with the latest information on this good evening. >> good evening, the idf determined the additional body be received from hamas is not that of sherry, it was believed that the body of her two young sons would be three of the four murdered hostages return to the idf today. the idf says the additional body they received was not the mother of these children and did not match any other hostage, they determined the remains were anonymous unidentified body. in a statement today the idf said quote, this is a violation of utmost severity by the hamas terrorist organization which is obligated under the agreement to return for the -- for deceased hostages. her sons were four years old and nine months old, when they were captured by hamas and taken to gaza. the idf determined they were brutally murdered by terrorists
8:42 pm
in captivity back in november o. take a listen. >> between little boys, taken from their home by savages. and we could not bring home alive! >> just an absolute tragedy, the remains of 83-year-old was also transferred to the idf today. he was a great grandfather, husband, and a peace activist. thousands lined the street honours the victims as a convoy carried their bodies to tel aviv for a final examination. >> trace: >> we will return all of our hostages, we will destroy the murderous, we will eliminate hamas. and together, with god's help we will secure our future. >> as of now 70 hostages remain in gaza. >> trace: thank you, the spring and former deputy special -- let's bring in former deputy

specialist. thank you for coming on, i want to show this video, we could all look at it because the whole world should see it if we can put this up and listen to some of the music and what is happening here. this is hamas celebrating as the coffins are being turned over. they are kind of celebrating if we can listen for a few seconds! ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ the reason we show this is because really it is important, is one of those things where, which is why benjamin netanyahu is so i right. >> the world is his witness, 16 months of hamas committing every atrocity, every war cramp -- war crime imaginable and today topped off these unspeakable acts of pure evil. and what we know from hamas and unfortunately from some gaza
8:44 pm
civilians is that they reject the ideology that they reject the notion of the jewish sovereign state in the middle east and the trump administration in the first term of president trump's presidency, he made clear that the arab world has to accept the jewish state of israel is here to stay, the united states will forever support that important bilateral relationship and soon heard the extremists understand that israel is here to stay, the sooner we are going to achieve peace. >> trace: benjamin is vowing revenge as hamas can't -- hands over the youngest hostages but what is a mean when he says revenge? >> this is going to be the complete eradication of hamas militarily and having any control over gaza whatsoever. there is going to be an israeli take over of gaza, i think it is going to be in partnership with them international countries as well. but i really think where he is coming from is the complete
8:45 pm
disruption of hamas militarily, leadership, any last remaining remnants of infrastructure and i think it is going to be that final triple that is going to have israel completely take over their ability to commit another october seventh. >> trace: meantime "the new york times" writes the following the headline is, trump's gaza plan arab leaders brainstorm on their own it goes on to say representatives of egypt dr. jordan, saudi arabia, and the united arab emirates are coordinating to form an alternative vision for gaza in which arab countries would help fund and oversee the reconstruction of gaza, also talking about keeping the two state solution and keeping the people of the palestinians in gaza. would he think about this? >> president trump's plan is really the only realistic plan that we have for the future. because we've seen the early reports of what this egyptian lead plan is. it's highly unrealistic, it requires billions of dollars and
8:46 pm
nobody has volunteered to pay for it, it requires the arab countries to unite in a way that is unprecedented that they've never been able to do previously. so i think it is far more realistic that we will see president trump's plan play out where those gaza residents you want to leave are given visas and giving countries that they can relocate to. while the country is rebuilt to something completely new, a paradigm shift a new middle east , that is what we need because we all know what israel knows, is that we will never repeat october seventh again. hamas will no longer exist and so that is a new middle east and i would be surprised if the arab countries would be able to come up with that plan. >> trace: to make matters worse, the times of israel writes the following. idf remains, the third body scent by hamas is not their mom. it's a significant developing story, and what is happening in this hostage negotiation.
8:47 pm
>> here is where i am that with that one. we need to understand what the goal of hamas is, with the goal of terrorists are, that's to inflict the maximum amount of psychological and emotional trauma to the israeli public as possible. you start bringing those boxes out, put them on stage with a backdrop of babies looking like the devil, with hamas with the green bandanna. it terrorizes the israeli public and the goal of hamas with these delayed transitions of these bodies and bring them out, could be by design and what it does is create that division between the israeli public and the government. israel is taking care of us? that is exactly what it is designed to do and i think it works, but israelis need to remain strong. >> trace: thank you both. trump putting his support behind g.o.p. push for federal government takeover of the district of columbia.

8:54 pm
