good to be with you. >> did chris wray lie about the issue involving catholics?e can be as aghast as he wants to be, but it share looks like now it was much broader than the richmond field office. we have a less redacted version. that's a problem in and it itself. why they redacted this stuff to give us the open document in the first place. it now shows that the fbi portland was involved and fbi los angeles was involved. it doesn't wasn't just richmond. it was broader than that. i never forget the term they use, radical traditional catholic, a term they created and then defined it as if you are pro-life or for a strong border and opposed to affirmative action, then you are a radical traditional catholic. that sounds like a regular republican to me in so many ways. they define and create this term and but for a whistleblower, but for the number of whistleblowers who have come to us over the last year and a half or two years we would not have known this. this is scary. now it is becoming a pattern with the fbi. they tell us one thing that turns out not to be so acc

well, here's what directormotheb chris wray at the fbi actually told congress, i believe under oathi. >> well, your fbi wrote a memo talking about radical, traditional catholics. t for i'm just wondering if you can define it for us. well, what i can tell you isus y you're referringou are to the richmond product, which was a single product by a single field office, whicwhich ish as d as i found out about it, i was aghast and ordered it withdrawn and removed from the fbi system. >> well, now the fbi is changin sysm.g their and teln us director ray's testimony on this matter hasg us beennt. accurate and consistent, but apparently that is not the casae . this was not just one document in the richmond fbi officeins, l in portland and then los angeles. they were alsoanangele involvedy similar conduct. and by the way, this isn't eve k the first time this week that jim jordan has caught the fbi lyin tm hasg. you also found out they misled us. we, the american people, the about the contacts they had with social media companies, about hundredsth. the chairman of the judiciary committee,e chair

well, just one month ago fbi director chris wray tried to play it off as one big misunderstanding. >>i can tell you is you are referring to the prismd product product by a single field office which as soon as i found out about it i was aghast and ordered it withdrawn and removed from fbi systems. >> laura: well, it terms out it was more than just richmond. house judiciary republicans have fbi documents proving portland and los angeles field offices were also involved in labeling traditional catholics as potential domestic terrorists. joining me now is mark houck who is a pro-life activist whose home was raided by the fbi last september. he is also running for congress in pennsylvania. mark, good for you, does this surprise you given your own experience and what do you think should happen at this point to chris wray? first of all, i'm a roman catholic. i don't know who they are talking about these traditional radical catholics. i guess they are just people who believe in roman ca catholicismt this point. >> yeah. well, it's obvious to me two things are happening here, laura. the first

fbi director chris wray said he was shocked, but it was one memo from one office. now it looks like more than that. joining us on congressman mike johnson from the great state of louisiana. another week, more questions with the fbi, what is the question with the radical ji jihadist nuns? >> sounds crazy, fbi director chris wray testified in judiciary committee under oath on july 12th and insisted this was a one-off, nothing to see here, folks, rogue out of the richmond field office. now we know two weeksar his testimony, we got unredacted document that tells the truth and two other offices were involved, portland and los angeles, for all we know it could be target ing catholics. it is incredible this is happening issue the doj has been weaponized, no other way to say it. >> trey: congressman, as relates to director wray, one thing to not know everything happening in every field office. it is another thing, once you learn, to still get it wrong before you go to congress. the director just either seems to be struggling to grasp what is happening within his bureau or

fbi director chris wray was shocked and one memo from one office and sure seeps to look like a lot moren that. joining us now is congressman mike johnson from the great state of louisiana. congressman, another week and more questions for the fbi. what's the latest from these radical jihadist nuns? >> the fbi director himself chrichristopher wray testified t was a one off and nothing to see here and, folks, it was a rogue operation out of rich monday field office and now -- richmond field office and now we know about two weeks after his testimony, there was an un-redacted document that tells us the real truth and at least two otherfield field offices were directly involved including portland and los angeles and, trey, for all we know it was a whole bureau approach to targeting traditional catholics as potential domestic terrorists. we're not making this up. it is really incredible this would be happening but the doj has been weaponnized and there's no other way to say it. >> congressman, there's one thing to not know everything that's happening in every single field office. that's one th

after the republicans had to push it this far and were on the verge of holding the fbi director chris wraycontempt. we'll have more on this 1023 form in the moment. sadly roadblocks were employed and are employed anytime republican has requested information on the bidens but apparently is news to biden spokesperson ian sims who basically lied himself today or is completely ignorant. so is the unusual $3.5 million payment from the russian oligarch to hunter biden, now sims claims speaker mccarthy, his claim had been debunked by "the washington post." wow. contrary to what mr. sims would have you believe, hunter biden did receive $3.5 million from the former first lady and oligarch in moscow according to the u.s. senate committee on homeland security and governmental affairs in the u.s. senate committee on finance. let me read from their 2020 report. "hunter biden received a $3.5 million wire transfer from the wife of former mayor of moscow. the report continued. on february 142014 she wired 3.5 million to an llc bank account for consultant agreement. that is hunter's business. the investmen

president biden for his obvious corruption and attorney general merrick garland's and fbi director chris wray corruption. we cannot have this type of justice system. this is republic ending type of misconduct. maria: a lot of pressure on kevin mccarthy to do just that. i'm expecting that to be one of the priorities in september. mike, we'll be following it. we hope you'll come back soon to talk with us about it. thanks very much. >> thank you. maria: all right. mike davis joining us. quick break an and then who ist their prime. president biden jokes about one of his biggest battles and it makes a buzz this morning. you're watching "mornings with maria" live on fox business. stay with us. ♪ we've got a love in a hopeless place. ♪ we fell in love in a hopeless place. ♪ we fell in love in a hopeless place. maria: this week on "mornings with maria," tomorrow piper sandler's chief global economist nancy lazar previewing the july inflation data, cpi and p36789i reports, breaking down the latest on the economy. thursday, the cpi report is out and our all star panel is in. we bring you a live report.

so we have with chris wray either he was lying, which is not good.fbi that he overseas and it really does speak to this larger issue and also means that congress is going to have to decide do we just keep sending in green letters and being upset about this or do we start deciding whether we can in good conscience continue to finance assault on americans is that where this is going howie. >> if the director of federal bureau of investigation says he is aghast to find what he then called a draft memo i'm aghast, too. it's pretty outrageous and pretty claim bureaucratic defense to say well, just a couple people in this one office. oh, yeah, other offices, too. comes at a time, of course, when the fbi's reputation is under fierce assault, having to do with everything from the trump administration to other matters this is ad not a good look for the fbi. >> bret: just a few moments ago at a fundraiser out west president biden was talking about the inflation reduction act and here's what he said at this fundraiser, quote: i wish i hadn't called it that. it

chris wray the fbi director has said he has never seen a threat environment like this heading into theespecially targeted against people running and targeted against democrats in particular when we see the online chatter. even though there are attacks against republicans. we're looking at quantity at this stage. and so people think about incitement like the former president trump might say something and people go off and do stuff. it is a little bit more complicated than that. how i describe what trump is doing in some of his language and some of the language we are hearing from other candidates now is they're creating a permissive structure. they are creating permission to utilize violence as an extension of just our political debate. they are normalizing it, winking at it, nodding at it. there is essentially, you know, serving as a magnet for it. that is why it has to be condemned from the top, from the leadership within the gop as well, and essentially make the price of this conduct a sufficiently high price that people will not do it. so it is the arrests we're seeing, the investig

what chairman jordan said in regard to the subpoenas in letters he sent to merrick garland and chris wray, the committee on the judiciary is conducting oversight of how and the extent to which the executive branch has coerced and colluded with companies and others to censor speech. there's a wide belief the biden administration has been colluding with the social media companies to restrict content. what do you think has been going on? >> well, a good example, john, is that when they talked about they can alert as to foreign actors, well, in some cases it was seated members of congress they are referring to. the national defense, foreign actor defense, and russian collusion and using it here. a legitimacy when they have a real ongoing case and they know it's a foreign actor. the interesting thing about that is most of the time when they have that kind of information they do just the opposite. they keep it secret, it's part of their investigation to try to, if you will, expand a case. most of the examples they have given are clearly a bias against free speech that usually involves americans

you kept jim comey and you hired chris wray. if it can be made, then, no. >> bret: we will see if it's made tomorrow night. >> yes, sir. >> bret: all right. thank you. ♪ tuesday extras thanks to one of our six sick of the tweets. john asks do you and it martha have final say on the questions asked at the debate. we have a lot of say. it is a team effort. it's a really good team effort but martha and i, you know, are doing the questioning. so, also, finn zim wants question asked to each candidate how do you plan to weak countries from powerful countries like russia and ukraine. there will be bucket of ukraine questions. i promise you that. last, kathy wants to know do you predict you will sleep better tonight or tomorrow night. i'm guessing tomorrow night. i'm going to put a lot of the chips on tomorrow night. okay. all the preparations for the debate. the behind scenes look at the stable. actually see that with bill and dana in the morning, first. please remember if you can't catch us live set your dvr 3 p.m. in the west and 6 p

president, something that attorney general garland did not take lightly and neither did fbi director chris wray broke into the capital before they looked into the fake elector scheme, the fundraising, and everything else here. trump is claiming this is coming in nine minutes. it's not clear to us. i should note that he has been notified that he has been indicted. our sense is this could be looking at press speculation. his team, we've been talking to them. they've been waiting to see if this is actually going to happen. they've been bracing for it. they don't know that it will be nine minutes. but they're waiting for it to happen any moment now. >> if this were just about january 6th as the date, maybe the timeline that he is trying to put forth might make sense to someone. not me. but this is about what happened leading up to january 6th, not just what was 187 minutes of dereliction of duty as they outlined in terms of what he was not doing while a mob was attacking the capitol. it goes back to the preparation leading up to the election. various states have been implicated. data points from al
