and i know hillary is still bitter. she lost in 2016, but hillary is an irrelevant political figure at this point, and there are serious safety issues that need to be dealt with in a smart way. as secretary duffy said, hillary should sit this one out. i agree, to say the least. transportation secretary sean duffy is with us. well, like everybody, i mean, you know, it's all shock and awe. but when you go back to the dei policies and we didn't really the word woke was not a big part of the vernacular. even in donald trump's first term. but when they put in dei policies that would allow the hiring at the faa of people with intellectual and psychiatric disabilities. and i read that that was shock and awe to me. what was your reaction? >> well, you know, sean, i want to look at what was the focus of the department, right. the main focus back to the history was safety. the problem is they were focusing on, as you mentioned, the environment, evs, changing language for social justice. they want to be politically correct. and wh

hillary clinton weighing back in, not sitting it o.ck and calling her basically a liar. whoever is in charge of upgrading the nation's air traffic control system most experts agree, that's what it needs. liz. liz: jeff flock, love you're doing the reporting out there in the cold. can see you're having fun with that last part. good stuff, jeff. great to see you again. good times for you. never a dull moment. thank you, jeff. now watch this. >> background and backup information for the 50 million in condoms to the taliban. $15 million to the taliban for condoms and contraceptives. liz: that was cnn jake tapper challenging congressman brian mast showing proof of $15 million worth of birth control going to the taliban. we showed you that the other night and it's a bigger number. let's welcome to the show from house judiciary. it's $45 million. 45 $45 million went to things for like condoms for the taliban and birth control in the middle east and much more waste spending on it and what do you make of the fight the media is trying to down pl

hillary clinton was the second highest. kamala harris's entire career has been predicated on her rise in california with dramatic over performance with latino voters. they know her, voted for her, have supported her for 20 years. they did not suddenly just become misogynists and racists. there is clearly something much more profound going on and i would suggest -- my warning to democrats in june was you need to get off of this lazy idea that has no empirical basis that latinos are driven and motivated by the immigration issue, but you cannot do it. they literally cannot do it. and in fact you are going to watch your own party continue to double, triple and quadruple down into this same wrongness in the next 30, 40, 50 days. it does not mean we are anti-immigrant. the polling would suggest we are sensitive to these issues. the 2018 midterms were an anomaly for democrats, when trump was cracking down on the undocumented. we saw the highest turnout among latinos in the history of elections in this country and the most decisive

hillary won by 13 points and 2016. vice president harris won by only 8 points in 2024 and that is notwithstanding the fact that hillary and biden ran before the dobbs decision. what happened with women in america in 2024, why did these changes come about and explain in the context of losing the plot. >> stephanie will also follow-up but overall i can speak to the trends we were seeing that we made sure we built a generalist coalition in 2020, really good narrative and messaging that focused on all economic, all multiracial classes of women and overall i think that messaging was able to propel us to win in 2020 especially with black women showing up and doing what we've always done is a voting pool, 92% to 96%, we saw that that was our base, the we were going to vote based on the issues and what was going to secure our kitchen tables and neighborhoods. looking at where we are in 2024 we see a shift and some of that we also followed based on economic messaging, clear narrative that he send shelley harris, between biden a

anybody drain the swamp more than trump is done and when you do that they raise their heads like hillaryed back and latch on to you even though there are relevant. our transportation system air-traffic control were using world war ii technology should have been updated 10-30 years ago and democrats right now are upset about elon musk but in my position i had that conversation with donald trump and he says i want the best system most technologically advanced system in the world and talk to the best minds on to go to the hill and talk to the best minds of industry and on the hill and the guys who launches rockets into space and catches them when they come back home i'm going to talk to that guy as well it would be malpractice if i didn't and lefties lose their minds when they want to move at the speed of trump or elon musk they want us to move at the speed of bureaucrats the woke policy is gone safety first and reforming air-traffic control not just make the system safer but more efficient so you won't have cancelled or delayed flights you will have an air-traffic control system which work

a lot of people get false hope but don't realize they are vulcanizing like hillary clinton, the media thought hillary clinton was going to win florida as obama had twice but they did not realize she was eating out of her totals. all of that -- we talked over the last couple of years including on a podcast and i said i always thought it would be a one or two point race like it was in michigan and wisconsin. god that right that it was a close election and what i did not foresee it was very different in deeply blue states like new jersey as well as red states, republican numbers did better than previously. i did predict democrats would win in the eagles would win the super bowl. >> i'm all about calling people out and we are recording for my podcast and you can all listen to this. but yeah, we will get back to that. i'm dying to hear about the in cells running around and assumed these are people poking around your domain, the budget committee. have you had interaction with these twentysomethings that elon musk sit on congress? >> i have not had any. this is about power and whether we wil

thank you so much hillary. now please watch this. >> does this mean the federal government in some states are giving out billions of dollars to individuals without verifying who they are or whether they meet program eligibility requirements? >> yes, ma'am that's correct. >> that's outrageous. do states have enough incentive to prevent fraud and to recover improper payments? >> no. and in fact, states are hesitant to spend their state dollars to protect federal dollars. >> would greater investment in program integrity efforts yield a positive return for taxpayers? >> yes. it could easily be self-funding. >> we're trying to save this country and your pensions and your bank accounts and i want to remind my democratic friends at a point in which you once had the majority of the american people on your side, this is what your party believed in. >> i've read it and where it says the president should, the president will. >> the day i took office, one of the commitments that i made to the american people was that we wo

what i love is that we live in a world now where hillary clinton, the most hillary clinton has, the most the people in real power have the authority to say to sit down. she is in a position now that conservatives have been in for most of my life, for all of my life, really. all she can do sit back and go wow, that is crazy, why doesn't somebody stop her, stop him? now she is just living in this norman desmond, sunset boulevard, waiting for her close-up, and it is never going to come, which is terrible news for her but great news for the rest of humanity. >> will: great news for america. we are going to be doing more with wade. thanks so much. it is timely and nighttime quickly now for will of the people i'm excited to see the new studio, hoping you ditch the suit, we'll see about that, go full on texas, music and everything. victoria says a new drinking game. drink each time will cain says "the will cain show." i wish you luck, you will be drunk, i'm working on it. finally, ncaa women's basketball teams have been practicing against men all the time, it's not anything new. i know pat summ

official documents and information from the russian government that would incriminate hillary. the response? if it's what you say, i love it, and they went ahead to the meeting. clearly, the trump campaign's purpose for that meeting was to obtain from russia incriminating information on clinton to influence the election. the special counsel decided not to prosecute the attendees, in part because it couldn't determine that that information would actually have been determinative, because it related to orphans, and what didn't connect with the trump attendees at that meeting was that the interruption of the orphans being delivered to the united states for parents who wanted to adopt them was the response to sanctions against oligarchs and people around putin. and this was an effort to get the sanctions lifted. if you could crack the code, you'd know that that is what the orphans conversation was about, because that's why the orphans block aid had been -- blockade had been set up. ultimately, russia did, in fact, hack e-mails, both from the dnc and from the clinton campaign chair.

improvements in places like erie county and northampton county and other blue-collar pockets where hillary clinton in 2016 had really badly underinformed. the question of would he have won in 2024, it's an interesting historic game, but frankly, for someone who wants to win in 2027-2028, i can't any wasted effort wondering what would have happened in 2024. frankly, it's as relevant to me if someone asking if lyndon johnson had done a bombing freeze with hubert humphrey born in 1968 are both equally irrelevant. reporter: no, they're not. because if you model a candidate like joe biden. mr. boyle: that's a different question. >> he could have won and what we're saying is a white working man that came from that state, working class vibes and we get someone like that on on the democratic ticket, could he have won? mr. boyle: to be clear, i don't think someone necessarily has to have my same skin color in order to do well in those areas. >> what if he's from pennsylvania? mr. boyle: case in point, barack obama in 2012 did so much better since then in those areas i talked about, erie county, nor
