and, in fact, pompeo had asked for a legal analysis of this.moved from office by the cabinet because he was mentally unfit in light of what had just happened and his refusal to stop it. and i went and i reached out to both mnuchin and pompeo and neither man would give me a comment, would deny it, would confirm it. not say they had the conversation. this went on for months. no denials whatsoever. the reporting i was 100% confident in. >>> then as i was finishing the book, i called donald trump for one last interview. and in that interview, i told donald trump, well, why is it that, you know, mike pompeo, your great former secretary of state steve mnuchin, why won't they even deny it and he got angry with me, said it was all nonsense. he said he had letters telling him the story was nonsense, that they never you know wanted the 25th amendment. but shortly after that interview, that phone call with donald trump, i got a call from an aide for mike pompeo who had been avoiding me for months, and said, oh, i finally have an answer for you. i got an a

secretary pompeo never talked about the 25th amendment, not even once. but pompeo denied it simply because he got a call from mar-a-lago saying, you know, what's going on here. >> jonathan, in closing, talk to us about the mindset of donald trump, a guy that we've both known for quite a while. what was his mindset? did he seem talking to him, did you get the sense that this was a guy who was looking for forward to running again in 2024 or could you draw no conclusions from your conversations? >> i got the sense from him, first of all, that he's exhilarated by talking about the bitterness, and the betrayals and transgressions that he believes has been done by fellow republicans. he enjoys the conversation. it's a dark conversation but he loves it. i found him entirely focused on the past what you have seen and what he has done publicly. people around him saying he's definitely running. it's a done deal. it sound like he's running in his public remarks. i don't think he's going to run. i think it's all about the past and about trying to make people, you kn

here is fox news contributor and former secretary of state mike pompeo. we are talking about climate change as it relates to the military weapons and the communist chinese are mocking joe biden. threatening to take over taiwan. flying over their air space and firing off hypersonic missiles. what is wrong with that, mr. secretary?yp >> boy, where to begin? the clip from vice-president harris is more than embarrassing on the world stage. our adversaries watch that and see weakness and people who are not serious. the opposite when was we did for 4 years. if feels like the carter administration. they view america as a danger to the world and apologize everywhere they go. the russians and the chinese and the north korea and iranians. they can see we are focussed on diversity inclusion in the military and trying to flight our jet with green energy. they are focussed on how to build a military that can undo our republic. we need an administration that puts america first and not last as they seem to have done. prioritizing climate change is america's most signifi

i learned that steven mnuchin had a conversation with mike pompeo on the evening of january 6th.onversations about the 25th amendment. further, that mike pompeo actually asked for a legal analysis of the 25th amendment and how it would be -- how it would work. >> let's talk about this bo bombshell with a former prosecutor. these were two of his most loyal allies. i wonder just what your reaction is to learning about this. >> well, two things. the first is most obvious, which is, it was an appropriate reaction. i mean, the president on january 6th had kind of lost it. some of us think he'd lost it earlier, but, clearly by then, he'd lost all sense of reality, and he continues to have a lack of that sense today. but the second thing, of course, is that the 25th amendment is really not well suited to problems like trump. it was designed for a president who had a heart attack or who clearly had gone around the bend and was, you know, spouting gibberish out of his mouth. it's a cumbersome process. in a rational world, we would fix the 25th amendment process. it actually provides an op

i give credit to president trump and secretary pompeo for reinvigorating the quad in 2019 and '20. president biden has held two head of government meetings at the quad, one virtual and one in person at the white house. president biden's initiative to deepen our engagement with our great ally australia and our ally the united kingdom could be transformational. i think it has been widely praised to be such in the indo-pacific. as we confront china whether on military balance of power, whether it's the fight that we have to convince china, push china to play by the rules on trade, we have a coincidence of use with japan, the european union, the european allies on all these issues. i think the president has focused on the indo-pacific, but also the european allies. i have seen a change in the last two or three years in the attitudes of most european governments. now much more skeptical about china on 5g, on china's nefarious belt and road initiative in eastern europe. so i think this is a big part of the strategy we need to continue to work on. >> let me turn to taiwan. given increasin
