we want to bring in now a man who i think could probably appreciate that joey jones, fox news contributorof those flags. >> you know, i do some wood working but i don't know if i can do that. i certainly don't think anyone would buy what i can do that's for sure.

with questions remaining in this case former marine corps bomb tech joey jones explains where investigatorsstart. >> quite a few overseas. you don't post blast analysis. you start epicenter of the explosion and work your way out and follow the blast radius and look for pieces, components anything with a serial number. if there was any sophisticated component use i guarantee you they already felt pieces of them and started to the disposal back together. >> reporter: federal officials say the bombing suspect worked alone and there is no longer a threat to the city. >> reporter: acting defense editor chris miller defending the pentagon's handling of the transition after this. >> we encountered roadblocks from the political leadership in the department of defense and the office of management and budget. right now we just aren't getting all the information we need from the outgoing administration on key national security areas. >> the secretary responding our dod, political and career officials have been working with the utmost professionalism to support transition activities in a compressed tim

combat in this book, because it's in the words of eric garrison, in the words of dan crenshaw, joey jonesnick urbain, army sniper. but then you allude to it, shannon. the transition back home as a whole another deal. they do a great job training you to fight, but coming home how do you find the next chapter of your purpose. these men and women demonstrate how you do that, how you virg thought. we are facing plenty of our own threats and restrictions here and can channel some of those lessons to find the fortitude we need in a moment's notice. >> shannon: the cool thing is along with the book, which is doing fantastic, you have on fox nation news stories where people can watch as well. tell us a bit about that. >> absolutely. the book is an extension of a fox nation series, same name, modern warriors prayed you know how it goes. you have a segment on your show or fox & friends, three and a half minutes, a medal of honor recipient, but it just scratches the surface. modern warriors on fox nation does an hour, an hour and a half, they tell the real story and we realize this is an opportunity

supervisory special agent and dhs advisor charles marino, ted williams, former homicide detective in joey jonesited states marine corps bomb technician. let's start with you. what caught my ear was tissue found, possibility of human remains, not clear if it was inside the rv or outside. what are your thoughts? >> very dynamic and fluid investigation. we did get the acknowledgment that there was some type of remains which they think they have identified through tissue sampling within the crime scene so there is a lot more work that needs to be done. what we do know is the civil emergency they have imposed in the city tides to the curfew, keep an orderly sense within the crime scene will allow investigators to do their work methodically and quickly and on interrupted by distractions of the general public trying to come down and take a glimpse of what happened so i think that's the right decision and also additional assistance for the city and i will finish again, a rough year for sure especially for law enforcement and the chief and others highlighted the great work these first responders to each

rachel campos-duffy, and joining us is retired bomb technician joey jones. always great to see you all. he is host of "fox nation outdoors," and a fox news contributor. thank you all, i sent a big virtual hug for coming on. [laughter] lisa, i will go to you first, regarding the fact that you got the president tweeting in support of bernie sanders. i mean, this is 2020, because i never thought i would see that. >> lisa: here's the thing about the $2,000 checks. i agree with it in principle, but when it's put into practice with the house bill, i don't agree with it. the reason why it is a family of five making $350,000 would see benefit from these $2,000 payments. almost 95% of americans would see some benefit from this stimulus check. what i think they should do is focus that income and those efforts on the individuals and the americans and the families have lost a large sum of money right now, who are truly struggling to pay their rent, truly struggling to pay their bills and put food on the table, rather than people who haven't been as impacted or haven't b

bring in johnny joey jones. joey, i have so much respect for what you do.it's not often we get warnings before the bombings go off. right? >> absolutely. first, merry christmas. this is an important holiday. this is tragic this would happen. but the bad guys don't sleep. they are out there every day trying to harm us. so something like this is really unique. all the circumstances around it. we haven't seen since the i.r.a. i'm sure the investigation will bring forth all of this. >> i was told that you can glean details of the type of the bomb used by the color of the smoke rising from the scene. i wonder if the i ma'ams you have seen you can tell us more about what explosive you think it was. what it sounded like for you. >> in a controlled environment like afghanistan we know what is in the area and what is hit by the explosion and you can do that. it would be irresponsible of me to dissect too many details about what the bomb was, what it was made of and what the explosive was to sit at home and watch it on television. people need to know the bomb itself

ainsley: here to react is joey jones.his legs fighting for that flag. i'm sure have you strong opinions here. what do you think. >> i have strong opinions. good morning, by the way. listen, i fought a war under president bush and president obama. i wouldn't vote for either of them today. and i'm sure both of them left this country more divided than they found it. but neither one of them inspired me to disassociate myself for this love for my country. i think this is a ridiculous premise if you are so weak minded and fragile heart that you can't love this country because of hot president is, you need to sit down, because if that -- if you are so scared to stand up for what you believe in when you are not winning, then you are not the person this country needs to fight for freedom or do what's right or stand in the gap while the rest of us are looking for you to lead or anything of that nature. i really don't understand. this i think this is more cannon fodder for the partisan side of things than reality. and i just couldn'

i was listening earlier in the day to joey jones he was from the military. he was a bomb expert overseas trying to figure out where bomb makers came from and he said despite huge explosions like the one that we saw in nashville , you can still, a lot of investigators are able to track down enough pieces of a bomb fragment in order to figure out where that bomb came from. is that what investigators are doing right now? >> yes. the fbi certifies all of the non-military bomb technician s for state and local partners and we work very closely with the military as well, and in a situation like this , there will be chemical residue available as well as components of the iu d itself and from a thermal investigation those types of components can be recovered and through a number of scientific methodologies can be traced to a source of origin. david: are you surprised that as of now, i mean, there were body parts found in the investigation so far. those may have been the remnants of the bomber himself or herself, but are you surprised? we're all in wonderment of the f

joey jones is a former u.s.st of the proud american podcast and a fox news contributor. thank you for being with us. the nba as it's known, defense spending bill includes a 3% raise for the troops. the president has always been an advocate of the men and women who wear a uniform in this country. what do you think? >> it builds a lot more than a raise, it's saying it's a coronavirus relief bill, it was a bill with coronavirus relief attached. if you're going to take issue, i'm not going to take a personal if it gives people a raise, but i don't know what is happening here. president trump has specific issues with this bill, but i don't see the risk or reword. i think it's going to be hard for a congressional republican to vote for this bill, have nothing changed and then vote against it or not override the veto if you days later. >> let's take a look at some of the specifics. it includes $740 billion for various projects, 3% pay raise for the troops. it limits the president's ability to remove forces from afghani

ted williams is a former homicide detective angela jones, united states marine corp marinb technician. joey, let's get your thoughts. >> i think what we know is that there was an explosion. we tried to push more into it and inspected and find out what kind of materials are used, and the one thing i will say, i've talked to other experts and i believe this probably was not an actual explosive, probably some sort of fuel or pyrotechnic which is no just as bad. it's what they did to cause the explosion that allows investigators to go a different route, tracking their purchases and backtracking their steps to find out what kind of person and what type of knowledge base they had in doing this. >> mike: ted to come as a former police officer we understand a curfew is in place for that immediate area from tonight until sometime on sunday. does that make a whole lot at this point? >> yes, it certainly does until they can try to determine what was the motive and who was behind this. but i've got to tell you from the last time we have spoken, mike, until now, and finding out that human remains may ha
