>> i don't think this dog could be spoiled anymore? do you see? >> i you sons and daughters and everyone else, mother's day tomorrow, if you haven't done anything yet, do something today, you can't show up with nothing tomorrow. >> you are not alone. >> special guests too. you might be surprised. >> speaking of special guest, fox news contributor, former nypd officer and author of spy gate, the attempt to sabotage donald trump. are you a father of a dog or sticking to mother's day? >> one of the great regrets of my lifetime is coming down with dog allergies. i love dogs. this is the most important thing i ever set on "fox and friends". anybody, please make a mean out of pete hegseth's face on the renaming mother's day story. if you have a screen of that it would be the most viral meme internet history. >> changing the name. unbelievable. we've got to get to topics of the day. senators johnson and grassley sent a letter to fbi director ray and mike pompeo demanding document connected to christopher steele's meeting saying the fbi may have been warned of steel's political motivation before they launched the investigation. >> a couple big take aways from this. we have absolute proof that the united states government new christopher steele, the source of the fake bogus information on donald trump paid for by hillary was politically motivated. the woman at the state department who interviewed steel before the dossier -- before the fisa warrant was issued takes a note saying his motivations were political, he wents this out before election day. take away number 2 is critical and is getting looked over in all this. christopher steele was like the post man. this guy delivered no matter what. if you needed a negative piece of information about donald trump paid for by hillary christopher steele delivered it. he gave it to jonathan weiner at the state department, the media, the justice department, the fbi but most importantly, overwhelming evidence he gave the same information to john brennan and the fbi didn't know about it. if the fbi thinks they are getting information from donald trump that is really negative and it is the same information from the same guy we have a real problem here. >> do you think anyone will ask joe biden when he learned about the steel dossier? >> i would hope so because there are a couple interactions, the first is the white house is running this text by the fbi and the other is the white house, the potus, president of the united states wants to know everything we are doing. the third one opens up, they are coordinating a meeting at the white house with the beauty director of the cia to, quote, speak with one voice while they are discussing the case. it's only fair to ask joe biden what did you know, joe, and when did you know it? shannon: when it comes to the mueller report democrats wanted more information, more information, they want the non-rejected version, they want the 1%, the underlying evidence. not one democrat has read the less redacted report. what is going on? is it to make a big talking point? do they really care about this information? >> this is as funny as pete's face, this is hysterical. in a devastating opinion piece, chemistry also lays out the stupidity here. we've reached peak stupid. here is my phone. i can pull up on this phone amazon barnes & noble whatever and by the mueller report. anybody -- it is out for anyone to read. think about this. democrats potentially trying to criminally charge william barr for not producing a report they could go to the internet and by tomorrow. with regards to the redactions this is hysterical. andy mccarthy has a piece of fox news talking about this. the law, the grand jury secrecy law that prevents bill bar from disclosing this information, he would be committing a crime if he gives it to the democrats, the law could be changed by congress tomorrow. the bill on capitol hill, remember schoolhouse rock, congress can change that are but they won't do it. we are living in the dumbest of times right now. >> why aren't they reading the information if they are so hungry for it why not read it? >> they have been invited to look at the classified information. william barr offered to bring it to them in congress. why aren't they reading it? because it is classified and if they leave it they would be committing a crime so what better way to impugn the integrity of william barr than to never read the classified information, speculate about it in the media and accuse william barr of obstructing even though he is offering for you to read it. >> those democrats see the entire report, they don't want to know, when they do they can't talk about it the way they want to which is to impugn him. it is amazing. >> we have a new way of viewing 2020 democrats and that is based on the nicknames donald trump gives them. donald trump has given one of those candidates a new nickname and that is mayor pete buttigieg. he said, quote, alfredtion not? of course, mad magazine, everybody read mad magazine, everybody had their favorite portions, spy versus spy or whatever, mad magazine responded who is this pete buttigieg guy? he is the master role as this, picking out a name that is going to stick. i have no personal beef against mayor pete, i disagree with his policies but that is going to stick from this point on. trump is great at that. he makes it stick like you are in a mouse trap. >> mayor pete took it in good faith but wasn't sure how to react, pointing out he is a young guy running for president. he had to google it. speaking of another presidential candidate, beto o'rourke jumping on kitchen counters and countertops blazing into the race based on enthusiasm of running a close race in texas. navy headline about what he plans to do says he plans a reintroduction as 2020 buzz fizzles, hitting the reset button. what does that say? >> it means storm clouds are ahead. this is one of these techniques candidate to do to gar
