sat through benghazi hearings.there, but there is also an opportunity, as kevi mccarthy said, to use it for political fodder against hillary clinton. but this time around, and at least the benghazi hearings, there are already oversigh committees, this is simply a vanity project for jim jorda himself. this is an opportunity to pree because there's nothing there, which is why it's been such flop, what's interesting i about all this is yet yes some republicans some of th right-wing like steve bannon extremists over there, a complaint that there's not enough money involved they onl have five staffers, th staffers are dedicated specifically to that committee so is not really structured, that's what they're complainin about. it's not structured like a normal select committee, you look with the january si committee, did they had a soli budget, that full-time staffers, and they were actually doing real work on behalf of the american people, this is not a serious thing, and demonstrating what a joke is every single day, eve

do that point, a lot of -- benghazi. >> what's that?ly. and what's interesting to me, now she's becoming an actress, she was not successful as a politician. she's trying, she's trying everything at this point and i wouldn't sign up for this class, i know that for sure. >> i might, it might be fun. >> this is about to be fun, a moment i have waited for on "outnumbered." hillary might be running for president, but another hopeful, remember the tiger king? he's officially putting his hat in the ring for 2024, writing this plea for voters on his campaign website. put aside that i am gay, that i am in prison for now, i used drugs in the past, more than one boyfriend at once and that carol baskin hates my guts. not a thing to do with me being your voice. he declared his support. >> oh, yes. joe exotic, can you imagine him on a debate stage. might have problems he's in prison, might inhibit his voice of the american people but something to say. with covid started and "tiger king" was on, i was mesmerized by it. my wife and i, we watched that s

three years ago, the mayor of benghazi was kidnapped and everybody condemned the act. a few months later, there was a picture declaring that they decided to release him. nobody knew where he was. nobody talked about it. and now he says she has to be allowed to run for president. so what would the libyan people do? bailey just lost space in the international community. i think right now they may really consider basically keeping the way things are better than the consequences of letting him who has not backtracked and decided to use the so-called powers on the ground to initiate elections. the powers on the ground is another made for these people that are in the report. nick: the point is that nothing will improve until the political situation does, but how do you resolve this political impasse between the two sides? how much responsibility can we keep leveling at the international community? it is an incredibly complex situation. there was no easy answer as we have been talking about and alluded to. >> there is no easy answer, it is true. you are entirely correct. ther

i wonder if benghazi will be in there.e to a drone attack that killed an american contractor and injured several of our troops. >> ashley: reaction from members of congress, we are live in washington next. >> todd: the united states military conducting airstrike overnight in syria after drone attack kills an american and injuries five u.s. servicemembers. you are watching "fox and friends first," i'm todd piro. >> ashley: i'm ashley strohmier, in for carley shimkus. the drone originated from iran and comes after series of attacks by the revolutionary guard.

she did not have anything to do with benghazi. she just tried to explain it.t: are you suggesting it is not the biden-harris ticket, that he should change up his running mate? caller: in a perfect world, i would like to see clarence thomas retire in the next two years, maybe have kamala harris go to the supreme court and have susan rice who i think is a more dynamic i think she is a real force. she is bright. she is from a ridiculously achieving family. i think the election is going to turn on women's votes. i don't think it is ever part of the discussion how bad trump overplayed his hand by forcing amy coney barrett onto the supreme court which is now going to take 50% of our country's population out of owning their own bodies. i think that is going to come back and haunt the republicans so badly. if i could just finish, if there is one thing every family is on their mind, every 25-year-old to 50-year-old family, it is when and if to have a child. host: there are others waiting. mark is in fort lauderdale. you say president biden run again in 2024? caller: ye

them can be released a few years ago we had two of our officers who were killed in the attacks, benghazi director pompeo released their names to the public. and so every year as i said, the directors always looking to see if those can be shared. but because the nature of operations, the nature of equities that we hold people that we work, they're definitely when we need to keep those names undercover, sometimes for decades. well, one of the more recent parts of cia history is assassination of osama bin laden. why don't we look at some of the artifacts you have there. seeing that this was really tively recent history when? was this declassified? is this newly declassified stuff that we're talking about to see the abbottabad raid was. 2011. and so shortly thereafter, the related to it were d classified. the newest artifact that i'll get to in a little bit the boots that belonged to one of the members of the assault team officer that are now on display here in the museum. so the story, of course, begins with the attacks of 911. we three artifacts from the three different attack sites got a

there are people living in seluk settlement in benghazi city, finding clean water has become a challenge for him. abdul ali uses a car to get water from other areas . this work costs 16 to enter. we faced low water pressure and from water pipes. agriculture comes to us, we have no way what to do with its water it is polluted. eastwick is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. this country does not have any natural rivers, but in the 1980s, this country witnessed the construction of a large national pipe network known as the man-made river. nearly 90% of the country's water is supplied by pipes, but since the fall of mohammad gaddafi in 2011, the main part of the water supply system has been destroyed. if you dig a well in the well cabin, it will become contaminated within a day. this is based on the united nations estimate if conflicts in libya is not over, nearly 4 million libyans may be deprived of access to clean water until a solution is found for these dry areas , the people of libya will have to come up with their own solutions. they do not have access to safe drinking w

i served on the select committee on benghazi. i saw how politicized and expensive that investigation was. i want to note again that the final report found no new evidence of wrongdoing. mr. williams, you have handled oversight for both congress and the invests -- executive branch. and based on your experience, what are the hallmarks of fair and effective congressional oversight? >> fair and effective oversight is number one -- does it serve to make government work and function better on behalf of the american people? i would say number two is there a process of a combination between the branches of government that are seeking to have information? in my case, and that was the justice department and homeland security. any government entity, are they working productively together? those two things. >> i'm glad you raised the issue of accommodation processes. can you explain why that is necessary and why the government cannot simply comply with every congressional oversight request in the moment it is made? >> sure. here is an exampl

yes, what's the difference about benghazi.will take is interesting, she has so many questions. can ask can i ask her about the clinton global initiative and how much did foreign governments pay her as part of this initiative? yes, biden should learn from her to begin with, when you tell young girls that clinton has the necessary qualifications to teach, the question arises. let's say you're not conservative. well what qualifications. she has what she actually achieved, besides not sleeping with a white clinton. no i'm serious what she did cause she's very successful in everything else, except for an intimate life with bill. nobody is cooler than her in the rest. no, i want you to tell me what she did. moreover, i don't want young girls to look up to hillary clinton . do you think students will ask her about what happened in benghazi? i don't think anyone will ask her about it, because that before them will be clinton presidential candidate clinton secretary of state. they won't even mention that she changed her position 180 de

no mention of benghazi. >> well, if you are in columbia, send us those tips. >> south carolina top accountantthe accounting for dummies book quits after committing a massive 3.5 billion dollars accounting error, i think this guy should be celebrated, basically what you expect from government officials these days, i wish he would send a copy of accounting for idiots to everybody in washington, that might be the first step in fixing the problem acknowledging the problem and the problem is not a tax problem, it's a spending problem and idiot problem or you have people who keep printing money and spending money they don't have. >> to keep take a picture with the book before or after? >> i think he was reading accounting for idiots and committed the error or maybe he didn't read it fully. >> at least he quit, they stick around for the next glow up after the next big mistake. >> coming up before we run out of time, transportation secretary pete buttigieg says the transportation system is facing a historic challenge because of wait for it, climate change. >> i joined today in a moment of historic ch

consider in particular how the house oversight committee is gearing up for what critics are calling benghazi two point oh. it's a rash of investigations into far right fever dreams which are designed to attack the president and serve nothing more than the red meat and gop base. don't get me, wrong i'm not exactly shocked by all of this. i am disappointed, because kevin mccarthy did not have far-right firebrands like jim jordan or matt gates to share the where -- he didn't pick those guys. he handpicked kentucky congressman james comer. it's a guy who reported bipartisan backslapping, a so-called adult in the room. those were the phrases that the media used to describe representative comer. while he is not as loud or brash as jordan or gates, he's often been flying under the radar since he took over the chairmanship. we've been keeping an eye on him, and we need to dispel this notion of who he is. he's just as radical, just as far right, just as conspiracy driven as the other, louder house republican figures. just this week, cockburn decried the fact that he missed his chance to see president

the question is, you've been on both sides of the congressional panel now you're on the benghazi investigatory committee and you appeared in front of congress many occasions dealing hostile majorities. what is your advice to the incoming republicans? the weaponization committee? mike gallagher during the china committee, the two most important ones on running productive hearings, given what you know about how agencies respond to hearings? yes, i have been both the obstinate person at state department and subject to an obstinate secretary clinton. yeah, i've seen them both. the best can do is make sure that you show with people who know answers to the questions you intend to ask. that is, don't don't bring folks who for the purpose theater bring them because they are subject matter knowledgeable whether they're in administration or experts outside. and second do your best to get the panel to be organized and disciplined because at the very least if the person on the other side of the table doesn't want to answer questions. you're not going to you're not going to cleverly goad them into it. but

maria: i wonder if the benghazi situation will be on the agenda. >> honestly i would take the class because what is the over under before she freaks out and says what difference does it make. how long is backward to take. so many things you could throw out there. maria: don't forget the influence peddling should we get into the global initiative how much money did foreign countries get to the clinton global initiative. biden should've followed them he wouldn't be any trouble they should've started foundation and they would be any trouble. let's take a break, tiktok ceo gets grown on capitol hill about china control over the bipartisan push to be on the app entirely, we are on it next. stay with us. ♪ challenges. i heard about the payroll tax refund that allowed us to keep the people that have been here taking care of us. learn more at getrefunds.com. when aspen dental told me that my dentures were ready, i was so excited. i love the confidence. i love that i can blast this beautiful smile and make the world smile with me. i would totally say aspen dental changed my life. aspen dental makes

he i getting from those on the righ and from others in the republican party who want this to be benghazi 2.0 they want this to be something which can be used against th entire biden administration. for example, we are discussing twitter in the last one. i thought we had already gon through the oversigh committee. they weaponization committee looked at it the things that they were -- first of all, you have journalists who put out report that say that the email that they have viewed are in fact the smoking gun that th federal government is lookin at this. let's take that in context first of all, they admitted to us that there were hundreds of thousands of emails that the saw. they focused only on 300 o them we believe that that is out of context. second of all, they were talking about the fbi having paid twitter fbi pays all social medi platforms because they know at different points they are goin to have to get data collection for them that is their up front payment of a fee that they know they'r going to have to meet when the get information fast fro neo-nazis, white supremacist -- >> th

i brought back -- from colombia, we have gone after the benghazi folks, we're good at piecing this together together. everyone is trying to save what they can. but as they're doing that, they are putting the case together, all these videos, all the cell phone information, it is going to go into the case and we're going to try to make a case for it. as i said, one of the best things i ever did in the fbi is bringing people back. i bought a pirate back from somalia for the killing of four americans. those moments is when the true u.s. justice system comes out because we go after the people who harm americans. >> all right, ken dilanian, rob d'amico, morgan chesky, thank you for the breaking news. we'll continue to monitor and bring you any updates. >>> still to come, how florida has become ground zero for the gop's political agenda and the possible 2024 clues we might hear from governor ron desantis at his state of the state address in the next hour. s at his state of the state address in the next hour untiw downy rinse and refresh! just add to your fabric softener tray. it doesn't just cover

saigon, tehran, benghazi, tripoli and kabul, each one of those, to most people in the state department, represent a failure to smoothly withdraw, a failure to anticipate and the like. the chairman had a lengthy discussion with you about what the committee wants and needs to do its oversight. in a very -- you gave answers not to his questions but answers that were the ones you came here prepared to give. what we have with me, this is what your discovery looks like often, actual discovery from the state department. i might suggest to you, after our mutual many years of doing this, your best choice is accommodation when appropriate, compliance when a subpoena comes, which means this sort of read action cannot and shall not be accepted by congress once a subpoena is issued. i might also suggest if you deliver something under the cloak of being secret or top secret, the redaction is by definition inappropriate. if we view in camara the read action is an appropriate. if today you can make the commitment that when accommodations to this and other committees, when the accommodation is that we

>> this will go on -- for the history of jim jordon, take a look at the benghazi hearings.t as a weapon to attempt to somehow harm the biden administration. now, there are plenty of things that we need to do. we've got a new budget that's presented to the congress. the republicans are not dealing with that. part of that budget deals with the judiciary system. let's investigate that. let's have hearings about how the judiciary system, specifically the department of justice, was used by the trump administration for four years as a weapon to both attack and to defend donald trump to attack others and to defend donald trump. there's something legitimate to investigate. >> this is going to go on for some time. on a different topic, congressman, you're on the infrastructure committee. want to get your take on the norfolk southern ceo alan shaw testifying yesterday and apologizing to the residents of east palestine, ohio. hours before that hearing, another norfolk southern train derailed, this time in calhoun county, alabama, about 30 cars derailed. there were no reports of injuri

they're looking for the next benghazi or terry schiavo and have not been able to find it because there'sre's the former president of the united states and keeps some of his classified information in drawers with his bronzer. if he's saying mitch mcconnell, an 81-year-old who just finished physical therapy and got out of rehab that he's a threat to the united states, we're wasting more time on committees than other nonsense. let's see if donald trump is right. let's see what mitch mcconnell knows. you can't be the former president of the united states and say the former leader of the senator is the greatest threat to america and just pretend that didn't happen. jim jordan and comer, they want to have all these hearings, let's have a hearing on mitch mcconnell. >> all right, congressman jared moskowitz, thank you so much. >> thanks for coming on. >> we appreciate it. of course, willie, the point here is to call donald trump out because it is so ridiculous. but we had him here in the middle of december 2015 saying that vladimir putin was a better leader that barack obama. and even after he
