after we saw mueller testify, but we had a bunch of republicans embracing mueller, paul ryan, and trey gowdy to an extent, we would just let him do his work and hope donald trump did not do anything wrong, and there were people like jim jordan and john ratcliffe and others. [cheers and applause] who saw through it. and by the way, you know who was another hero during the russia hoax, the best governor in america. [cheers and applause] oh they love him. they love him. they have more -- [cheers and applause] yeah, you hear that, ron? [cheers and applause] i remember campaigning with ron desantis when we could meet in an elevator and still have room for social distancing. [laughter] he has done a great job and shown good leadership. as we take this tour, we want to highlight america first leaders across the country who need that. when you willing to draft and with the establishment, there is so much support, the lobbyist would tell you how to vote, the fundraisers will pour the money on you, telling you where the embassy parties are, and it is nice life. if you do that, then they come for you.

trey gowdy, good to have you on the program reacting to so much breaking news. appreciate it. the middle east on edge speaking of baeking -- breaking news. gaza militants firing hundreds of rockets into israel. they were hitting near that holy site in jerusalem 24 hours ago when we were on the air. look at it from later in the day. reaction now from united nations ambassador nikki haley. she is in "the faulkner focus". first. >> as soon as biden comes into office the whole thing breaks loose and hundreds of thousands of people are coming. the only people i think that are benefiting by this humanitarian crisis are the cartels. >> harris: if you got one message from "the faulkner focus" yesterday and for the rest of the week, it is the border is not closed. and the crisis is not going away. more migrants crossing illegally right now. this is a live picture. you see them through the reeds there. these images from del rio, texas, we're live on the border. a harrowing reminder of just how bad it gets. five very young migrant girls found abandoned and hungry. one with no clothes on

about -- >> trey gowdy. >> yeah, trey gowdy. if they conduct themselves like that, it will be a disaster for the democrats. and i'm hoping that will not be the case. and i don't believe it will be. but i think we need to find out what the facts are. there are a number of people in this country who are traitors, and they attack the government. and some of those people who are not traitors. they were just idiots that went along with the mob violence incited by trump. but there needs to be some punishments meeted out. a marine was found to be on active duty attacking the capitol. there are a number of other people in jail as a result of their activities and self-incriminated themselves. this is a serious thing. we have not had this kind of violence in this country, even in the '60s we did not have an attack on the capitol. and, so, this needs to be dealt with. and we need to be really clear that there is no excuse for what happened on january 6th in the democracy. >> i do have one question. >> yeah. you make a good point. >> do i h

trey gowdy says the far left needs to stand with our allies, the fragile cease-fire could fall apart. >> that is a repudiation, bernie sanders, aoc and others, a hard time telling terrorists from our allies, talked to netanyahu, sending a message to hamas and iran, not to need a cease-fire. tell them to stop firing rockets at israel and hopefully there will be a cease-fire. >> republicans related to the president urging him to reject calls from the far left. todd: arizona police officer being struck by a vehicle overnight. the police officer conducting traffic control when the individuals hit, no word on their condition. this is a developing story. we will update you as soon as more details are released. in colorado, a deputy shot multiple times, lincoln county sheriff's office said the deputy was ambushed while responding to a 9 one one call. the suspect was found a self-inflicted gunshot wound after an hours long manhunt. he is expected to survive. he is a 7 year veteran of the force and an air force veteran. the shooting taking a toll on his fellow officers. >> i struggle to find w

jon: congratulations to jim gray, who was honored with basketball hall of fame inaugural kirk gowdy mediahis dream come true, he was able to help implode a texas overpass. made possible by the make a wish foundation and the state of texas. >> walt disney world in orlando said that guests will no longer have to wear masks outdoors, they will require them only on indoor park areas, and park transportation, employees will still wear masks, that is how "fox reports" this sunday, may 16. i am jon scott. i'm judge jeanine pirro. thanks for being with us tonight. let's get right to my open. what happened to the colonial pipeline this weeks an example of why our country is in great peril. president trump was on defcon one when it

here is trey gowdy weighing in on that front?n here is follow the science, a large political constituency provides lots of money to your election tells you otherwise. if you're going to follow the science follow the science that those kids are being hurt, they are being hurt by being out of the classroom. >> randi weingarten says discussions with the cdc were routine and a normal lobbying efforts. >> read the room. this was a huge shock. >> we have a high-profile divorce on our hands. bill and melinda gates calling it quits after 27 years of marriage. bill gates is considered the fourth richest person in the world, net worth, look at that number $124 billion. many people are surprised to learn that the biggest private owner of farmland in the united states with 242,000 acres across 18 states, they own homes in 5 states, have an art collection that includes $30 million writings and sketches by leonardo da vinci. call that a casual weekend purchase and a series of private jets, the list goes on and on, they would reportedly do not

here is trey gowdy on that front. >> the lesson here is follow the science unless a really large politicaloney to your election tells you about it. if you follow the scientologist find that those kids are being hurt, out of the classroom? >> reunion discussions with the cdc were routine abnormal lobbying efforts. >> they represent their constituency. a huge divorce news. jillian: a massive high-profile split, on bill and melinda gates after 27 years of marriage announced they are getting a divorce. bill gates is the fourth richest person in the world, $124 billion. and assets around 125,000 acres of farmland in 5 states, private jets and did not have a prenup in place. before going public with the divorce, there's also the bill and melinda gates foundation, the massive charitable foundation they have worth $50 billion, they are still going to run the foundation despite getting a divorce. to your feel-good story of the day. this is so great, a lot of celebrating going on after nfl players got their names called at the draft. we highlight one celebration in particular, take a listen to this.

. >> trey gowdy says the progressive divide on supporting israel will cost democrats their house majority. >> house democrats having a difficult time telling our allies from terrorist organizations. last summer they couldn't tell the cops from the robbers or arsonists from peaceful protesters. the squad is on the verge of doing something no other group of democrats can do by themselves which is guarantee kevin mccarthy is the next speaker of the house. if they keep equipped locating between israel and a terrorist organization they will guarantee the next speaker of the house. todd: last hour we spoke with carlos jimenez with leading up republican resolution in the house. he called the israel hamas conflict a true test of the biden administration. jillian: two maryland deputies are shot in the line of duty. the sheriff's office says they were responding to a call with a person experiencing a crisis and were shot after going into the home. they were prompting a squad response, the officers are recovering in the hospital. >> in the molly tibbetts murder trial, it will not be pleasant, presen

. >> harris: lawrence, last hour, trey gowdy described this as a federalization of our collection systemcome from. the most insulting part of this bill is the fact that they plan on matching contributions with taxpayer funds. i've never given to any politician, because i don't like any politician. anybody that watches fox knows that if there is a politician on the program, i need answers from them, i'm not here to be their friend. the fact that my tax funds are people that i may even like some of the time, that's concerning to me. i would caution republicans on this. we saw this in georgia. you see the big guns. whenever you see the majority leader and a committee hearing, they don't go to those. they are all hands on deck on this. you've got to get out front, win the people, talk with black voters. they are making a racial piece of legislation. it's georgia 2.0, except they have the power and weight of the federal government. >> harris: how does that work, kayleigh? if everything comes down to those things that divide us, how do you do anything together, or is that not the goal forget f

gowdy. you had very -- you got angry in terms of the gold star father.shows me that's innately a part of you and a bias. >> the dental body language expert. you may also remember six of his siblings, blush and blood, went out of their way to cut an ad, begging people not to vote for their own brother. still one of the biggest stops to proponents, we will have more about him as well. maybe you know those, right? if you follow national political news very closy, most of e caucus is fairly anonymous. keep in mind, a lot of two parties in america. republicans are on the cusp of possibly retaking the house, purely through redistricting and gerrymandering. whenever you dip into take a sample see what's a republican is, it's truly unnerving. yesterday was not just the cowardly voice vote to remove liz cheney and the backbenchers like like madison cawthorn crying about it. there is a house hearing where just it was incredible, literally incredibly, alternate history of january 6th being written in realtime by lack of a better phrase random republicans. this is c

us state department spokesperson morgan ortagus, and former chairman and fox news contributor trey gowdyne the ban of president trump

remember trey gowdy? many of those same people were in the senate then and in congress and wanted to reg then. don't want to investigate this. what happened in their own house. so you're against the commission because you don't know what new facts the investigation will uncover. isn't that how investigations work? how are investigations supposed to work? come on, mitch mcconnell. now, let's remember when mitch mcconnell's hypocrisy, when it was on full display when he said this after he voted to acquit the former president who incited the insurrection. here it is. >> there's no question, none, that president trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day. no question about it. the people who stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their president. and having that belief was a foreseeable consequence of the growing crescendo of false statements, conspiracy theories and reckless hyperbole, which the defeated president kept shouting

former tennessee congressman and ceo of empowerment inclusion capital and trey gowdy former congressmaneen this many years before but it is intensifying it seems and how the administration is handling it. >> well, i don't know the administration's policy the right to defend yourself? i don't think israel needs biden to tell them that they have the right to to defend themselves. what has changed, bret, is there are house democrats that are having a really difficult time telling our allies from terrorist organizations. last summer they couldn't tell the cops from the robbers or the arsonists from the peaceful protesters, i tell you what, bret, the squad is on the verge of doing something no other group of democrats can do by themselves which is guarantee that kevin mccarthy is the next speaker of the house. if they keep equivocating between israel and a terrorist organization, they will guarantee that kevin is the next speaker of the house. >> bret: yeah. to that point, that political back and forth up on the hill, take a listen to some of that. >> palestinians aren't going anywhere no ma

bret: so byron york, chief political correspondent, mara lyon sin, national public radio, and trey gowdyinto a classroom and asked how is this virtual school going? basically the answer they got was that it was horrible. >> i think they use the word terrible. the lesson is follow the science unless a really large political constituency that provides lots of money to your election tells you otherwise. if you're going to follow the science, follow the science that says kids are being hurt whether it is socialization, nutrition, you name it, they are being hurt by being out of the classroom, so in south carolina my wife is a school teacher, she has been in the classroom the entire year, i find it stunning that there are kids that are still not in the classroom. >> bret: there has been a push or a walk back on the terminology and the emails show that there was a couching of the words by the cdc or at least they suggest that. >> yes, well, it is unclear how the cdc's guidance is the teachers unions. an important constituency and weighed in with other groups on these guidelines, but you just h

former tennessee congressman and ceo of power plant inclusion capital and trey gowdy former congressman talk about cyber threats and cyber hacks. this is really hitting home with people saying how vulnerable are we? >> brit: the answer seems to me based on this we are quite vulnerable it appears our ability to counter or block these attacks is not what it needs to be. this is a serious incident. if this was simply a criminal gang, that has done this, that is even in some respects you could make the argument that's even more alarming because imagine what a gang of criminals with a support of a major state could do. so we have a long way to go on this issue and, you know, i wouldn't be surprised if the biden administration would be pointing fingers at the trump administration before long. it's up to them now, the biden administration to deal with this and this is the kind of national security issue that often comes out of left field and is a real test of a presidency. >> bret: trey, we have been dealing with this on capitol hill for a long time. there has never been this big cyber bill th

so we have this partisan select committee that was chaired by trey gowdy. it had one mission, tear downhillry's numbers. that was a terrible abuse of congressional process and taxpayer dollars. does that mean that you can't have a properly constituted select committee? no. congress can do the job right. but the best way to do it is to form an independent commission like the 9/11 commission, that's outside the political process, and i hope that we can find the votes in the senate to do that. it's clearly in the public interest. but if that doesn't work, we'll have to consider alternatives, not in a partisan way like benghazi, but in a thorough and objective way. but we're going to get answers one way or the other. we're not going to look the other way as a lot of republicans would like. >> i imagine the security questions even that john katko laid out there are ones that need to be answered, whether republicans want answers or not. so one thing that i want to play for you and get your reaction is in donald trump's first impeachment, you said something that r

amy walter for the cook political reporter and trey gowdy former congressman from south carolina.an pressure pushing for this a democratic president doing it and the population in the u.s. is for it. but there are concerns. >> well, absolutely it's been pretty clear in the last few days about just how challenging it's going to be for the afghan security forces on their own to hold back the taliban. the attacks have increased on -- from the taliban on to afghan forces and we expect the question is whether this is going to be a launching pad for terrorism as many are afraid or whether the threat for that is under control and the focus instead should be looking for signs of potential terrorist threats in other parts of the world or other parts of the threat that we are seeing to the u.s. from other parts of the world. >> bret: trey, congressman mike waltz from florida, a green beret in congress, made a good point in lucas' piece earlier about the afghanistan military bases there being on the western flank of china and the southern flank of russia and the eastern flank of iran won't b

you know to an extent tre' gowdy.ueller do his work and hope donald trump didn't do anything wrong. there were people like jim jordan and john ratcliffe and others who saw through it. by the way, you know who is another hero during the russia hoax? the best governor in america, ron desantis. they love desantis. they love desantis. [cheers and applause] you hear that? [cheers and applause] i remember campaigning with ron desantis when we could have had the whole campaign meet in an elevator and still had room for social distancing. but he's done a great job. he's shown true leadership. as we take the tour around the country, we want to highlight america first leaders all across the country who need that. when you're willing to draft in with the establishment, there's so much support for you. the lobbyists will tell you how to vote. the p.a.c. fundraisers will pour money on you. they'll tell you where the embassy parties are. it's a nice life. if you post up on them like desantis has, like kristi noem has in south dakot

gowdy. you got very angry in regards to the gold star father. that shows me that it's innately a part of you and a bias. >> ah, yes, the dental body language expert. you may also remember six of his siblings, his flesh and blood, went out of their way to cut an ad begging people not to vote for their own brother. gosar, still one of the big stop the steal proponents, we'll have more about him as well. maybe you know those, right? if you follow national political news closely, most of the republican caucus is fairly anonymous. keep in mind. one of two parties in america. republicans are on the cusp of possibly retaking the house, purely through redistricting and gerrymandering. whenever you just dip in to take a sample, see where the median republican is, it's truly unnerving. yesterday, it was not just the cowardly voice vote to remove congressman cheney and the back bentures like madison cawthorn grow crowing about it. there was a house hearing where incredible, literally incredible alternate history of january 6th was being written in realtime

and trey gowdy former congressman from south carolina. welcome to all of you.oday? he has faced a lot of pressure from the progressive more leftist part of his party including members on the hill who don't want him to be so full throat of his defense of israel our ally in that region. >> yeah, certainly a repudiation of that wing of the party. there is bernie sanders aoc and others are having the difficult time telling the terrorists from our allies. this is a repudiation of that wing of the party. i'm glad he talked to netanyahu. i hope he is also going to send a message to hamas and to iran. what's even better than a cease-fire, shannon is not to need a cease-fire. tell them to stop firing rockets into israel and then we won't need the cease-fire. >> shannon: the president also said they will work on a number of things getting humanitarian aid in as quickly as possible and rebuilding gaza which has obviously had a lot of destruction the last 11 days or so. but he also talked about the fact that they want to work with the palestinian authority, not hamas, mara

former tennessee congressman and trey gowdy former congressman from south carolina.ress know that before we come on your show. so i think liz deserves credit for going to an environment where you are going to be asked tough questions. i think the one that stumped her the most is why do you want to be the leader of a conference that you are out of sync with. and i didn't hear an answer for that you ask the questions people want to hear. you were tough. i also think she deserves credit for answering them. there are easier venues had than coming on with bret baier. >> bret: mollie? >> liz cheney seems obsessed with donald trump and she is very passionate about this. i think a lot of republicans are wondering where was that fire in the belly for the last four years when democrats were questioning the 2016 legitimacy, when they were says the election was stolen and that donald trump wasn't legitimate. hillary clinton and former president carter, one out of three house members on the democratic side refused to go trump's inauguration because they said he was illegitimate.

but at the time we had a bunch of republicans embracing mueller, paul ryan and to an extent trey gowdywork and then we just have to hope donald trump didn't do anything wrong. there were people like jen jordan and john ratcliffe and others who saw through it. by the way, do you know who was another hero during the rush a hoax? the best government in america, ron desantis. oh, they love ron desantis. you hear that, ron? i remember campaigning with rone desantis a when we could have had the whole campaign meet in an elevator and still had room for social distancing. but he's done a great job. he's shown true leadership, and as we take this tour around the country we want to highlight america first leaders all across the country who need that. because when you're willing to draft in theho establishment, there's so much support for you, the lobbyists will tell you how to vote. fundraisers will pour the money on you. they will tell you when the nbc's parties are and it's a nice life. but if you post up on them like ron desantis has come like christine nomads in south dakota, then they come
