i'm an air guardsman, sergeant grenell you mentioned your time in iraq. at any time in your military service did you change how you defended the person to your left or right or how you trained based on their political affiliation. >> no. >> whether it fwhas war or anything. >> no, sir. the way i viewed it at that time i'm an american and the person next to me is an american and i would do everything possible for me to defend him and the country at that time. >> you guys did that. you guys did that in the blue. >> yes, sir. >> i want to say that is the mission of this committee. we may have our deep differences on other policy issues but we are all americans today. we thank you for holding that line. >> if i may respond to congressman. when you asked about the armed part, when the officers showed me there what appeared to be a police badge, i don't know too many police officers, this is just me being a police officer for 13 years, that carry their badge and don't carry a gun with them. so i looked on their hips and you see a print. i didn't see it was a gu

ambassador to germany, ric grenell.pipeline with merkel and he will press her on the importance of developing concrete mechanisms to ensure that energy is not used as a coercive tool in europe and ukraine. you wrote a very fascinaing piece on this today. how do you think that will go? >> i think i biden will utter those words and nobody will know what they mean. the sanctions have been dropped. the germans are celebrating they're getting russian gas, this is a disaster. angela markle is a nice person and a good leader but the global community is celebrating her tenure without looking at the details what she has successfully done is moved the germans into an alliance that is not western facing anymore. she likes the idea of an e.u./u.s. alliance, not a western alliance. they want to be friends with everybody. they want a huge surplus. they want to continue buying and trading with china. the new chancellor candidates, a couple of them have said in the german election will be in september, have said that they don't want to

ric grenell lives in los angeles county and joined me now.ng to do. vaccines work. we should not be messaging that vaccines don't work and getting a vaccine means that you shouldn't be somehow allowed to go about your life freely and what la county has done is they put vaccinated people and non-vaccinated people into the same category and telling everyone to mask up. this is outrageous. it is a science denying move by la county and we are hearing gavin newsom is furious with la county for doing this because it is inflaming people i can tell you across the board people saying they are not going to comply, this is outrageous for the largest county in america to be doing this. stuart: there are times we need lawyers and this is one of them, good stuff. you were america's ambassador to germany, yesterday president biden and angela merkel announced a new climate partnership. they are going to cooperate on plans to cut emissions, collaborated on green technology and helping developing countries. it is a climate partnership. do you think it works fo

. >> bret: also here tonight ric grenell former acting director of national intelligence. when you consider what was done in 2020 before, during and after the way they went after donald trump and we are going to do a story in the next block about the doj, something they suppressed on hunter biden in the middle of the election. how fearful are you that with the levers of power in the executive branch they will only double down on that? >> look, pete, first of all, i don't see any signs that they are letting up in washington, d.c. they are weaponizing more and more different -- agencies. u.s. agencies. and that's scary. i mean, what we saw in this last election, and we should all say it very proudly, there was fraud in this last election. we have proved fraud. i ran nevada and there were people who voted who had residency violations. they weren't supposed to be voting according to the residency laws. dead people voted. we know this to be true. there is a quick dismissal to not look very deep. not go further on the fraud. so, when we say that there is fraud usually what happe

sean, take a listen to ric grenell on the cancel culture here at cpac.ten to this. >> the reality is, is that we don't need to be afraid. we need to defend if each other, and when one person stands up, join them. stop being so timid. let's teach our kids and our grandkids to listen and to -- [applause] maybe learn from someone else. and not run out of the room and put your fingers in your ears and then go cancel somebody because with you don't agree. >> yeah. so, sean, obviously that seems like a really good approach. this is america uncanceled. do you agree with what he's saying? is that part of the solution here in. >> yes. 100%, ric grenell is spot on because i think conservatives and the meddle are the majority, you have these left-wingers who are the minority that are canceling everyone in america. when someone that you know, someone online that you're friends with that you may not know is canceled, stand up and defend them. and a lot of people feel like there's a risk in that because then they might getten canceled too. but if everyone stands toget

i want to play an exchange between liz cheney and officer grenell. take a listen. >> you hear former president trump say, quote, it was a loving crowd. there was a lot of love in the crowd. how does that make you feel? >> it is upsetting. it is pathetic, huge for his behavior that something he, himself helped to create, this monstrosity. i am recovering from those hugs and kisses that day that he claimed so many rioters, terrorists were assaulting us that day. what he was doing, instead of sending the military, instead of sending support or telling his people, his supporters to stop this nonsense, he egged them to continue fighting. i was fighting alongside officers. nobody else, there was nobody else, it was not antifa or black lives matter, it was not the fbi, it was his supporters that he sent them over to the capitol that day. lee ann, here's the senior most republican invoking donald trump. would have been a different tone had jim jordan been on the committee who sort of made a career out of being i guess the proverbial ant at a picnic, blank in

who was a reaction is ric grenell and former cia station chief dan hoffman.n the white house when this is unfolding. our enemies got the impression there was a strong president anu they needed to behave. they seem now to be getting the opposite impression. with all that we are seeing.g. the china and the taliban action and the nature of what putin is doing. what is the most alarming to you? >> first we should bifurcate what the united states knows. the intelligence community what they know from what we say publicly. this is an important point. i miss the days when president trump would articulate warnings to china. he would be very clear about what they should and should not do. that is the best public reaction to the things that we know privately that china is doing. make no mistake. your intelligence agencies for the united states, they know what china is up to. they have briefed the president. what we are missing from trump to biden is those public warnings for the chinese not to do certain things or the penalties that will result or the quick actions that

. >> former intelligence director ric grenell tweeting americans are horrified by the videos highlightingotecting biden lisa boothe says the media is more concerned about asking the president about ice cream then questioning his performance. >> the media is giving joe biden a pass because there's tax the play for the liberal in joe biden's cognitive decline we have eyes and ears and we can see it all for ourselves. absolutely has national security impact because even though the media does not want to cover it are adversaries are saying this in part or preventing wars is through deterrence and projection of strength that's happening with joe biden and is not just with ice cream and incoherent it's also through action. >> congressman michael mccaul is accusing democrats of playing with fire for refusing to back another investigation to china's role in the origins of the pandemic and it comes as marshall says the biden administration is not doing enough to hold china accountable. >> they are playing with fire and that fire lit up the world and burned it. >> what they need is public shaming w

former trump administration acting director of national intelligence richard grenell and his group haveed with the state supreme court to stop that mask requirement. >> what l.a. county has done is they put vaccinated people and nonvaccinated people he did the same category and telling everyone to mask up. this is outrageous. it's a science denying move by l.a. county. >> l.a. county health officials obviously don't see it that way. they say it all comes down to a new rise in cases and they are worried if they wait it will be too late. a little more than half of l.a. county is fully vaccinated, far below the estimated 70% to 85% many experts feel is necessary for the herd immunity. worth noting vaccinated people can still carry and transmit the virus. some are concerned people can easily claim they've never been vaccinated when they -- or they have been vaccinated when they've not. folks who call the area home have mixed feelings regarding the new indoor mask mandate. >> i think it's fine. we never took off our masks to begin with. for other people and for ourselves. we are kind of -- i

joining me now with more is former acting director of national intelligence ric grenell, along with formerhite house chief of staff reince priebus. thank you guys for coming on here, i appreciate it. i have to say that when it comes to the job of being commander in cheese, i thought it was 24/7in especially with all kinds of things going on in the world, what is your take on this attitude from joe biden of i don't want to talk about afghanistan, it is the fourth of july, is that a normal and safe approach for the president? >> no, not at all, tammy, and happy fourth to you and rick. not at all. it's obviously a 24/7 operation but it's also something that is very serious and when someone has a question about afghanistan and troops that are leaving airbases that have been occupied with american airmen and soldiers and marines for the past two decades, it's something the president needs to answer but he doesn't. in the media gives him a pass. but i think it would actually be more fun if we played the $0.16 game and see how many things we can actually buy with $0.16. like maybe a button, a16 j

they didn't just photo shop into the diversity pick trump's director of national intelligence ric grenellmmunity gay. but, according to the left, seriously, he doesn't count as gay because he wasn't confirmed by the senate. got that? america is now so credentialized you can be a practicing homosexual and doesn't count unless confirmed by the senate does that need the filibuster or just straight up and down? you know it's always a depressing thing for me about these diversity report, muslims, transgenders, whatever, but where are the canadians in the supposedly diverse u.s. intelligence community? oh, no, wait, we have just got the new edition and looky there in the back row, oonk be are oh, and nowonder, tucker neededt ahead of that nsa story, there he is me tooing the gal at the immediately to garden party in 1978. does any hostile foreign power need to be scared of a u.s. intelligence community lacking the photo shop skills of your average middle schooler or is that what they want the russians to think? debra is the host of the dr. deborah sew podcast and author of the book you should g

metro police officers, capitol police sergeant aquilino grenelle in iraq war veteran was among the injured. he testified that the rioters said he should be executed. i too, was being crushed by the rioters. i can feel my myself losing oxygen and recall thinking to myself. this is how i'm going to die defending this entrance, d c. metro police officer michael finnegan, who told rioters he had kids said he was shocked with a taser beaten and heard the crown chanting, kill him with his own gun! he had a heart attack and was knocked unconscious, please now, like staying there, buddy, i feel like i went to #### and back to protect them and the people in this room. fanon didn't mince words criticizing politicians he had tried to protect, who have since downplayed the incident. action and writers. the indifference shown to my colleagues is disgraceful, fellow d c. police officer daniel hodges described being crushed between two doors. if that turned into a firefight, we would have lost. i want to thank you for your tremendous courage and stamina and heroism. u s. capitol police officer harry dunn

in the crypt i encountered officer grenell.rry a woman to a majority leader's office and administered cpr. as the afternoon wore on i was completely drained both physically and emotionally and in shock and total disbelief over what had happened. once the building was cleared, i went to the rotunda to recover with other officers and share experiences from what happened that afternoon. representative rodney davis was there offering support to officers and when he and i saw each other he came over and gave me a big hug. i sat down on the bench in the rotunda with a friend of mine who was also a black capitol police officer and told him about the racial slurs i endured. i became very emotional and began yelling how the blank could something like this happen? is this america? i began sobbing. officers came over to console me. later on january 6th, after order and security had been restored in the capitol with the hard working sacrifices of law enforcement, members took the floor of the house to speak out about what had happened that
