it's terry rasmussen. >> finding out his real name, terry rasmussen, now we had something to go on tot seems to be a pretty conventional life up until a point. he was born out in colorado. he got married, had four kids. so, in identifying terry rasmussen, barbara rae-venter has also, of course, identified his whole family and his immediate family doesn't have any idea what kind of news they're about to get. >> my mother calls me, and she's, like, the new hampshire state police cold case unit wants to come and talk to me. >> just imagine that state police from a different state give you a call and say they want to talk to you about something that pertains to your father. remember, the last time they saw him was decades ago. his children were very young when he left. >> i'm at work plugging away, and i see these two people from the new hampshire cold case unit come into the lobby. they laid the story out for me that was what had happened to my father. if my mother wouldn't have left my father, it could have been me. would have been me. check out this one. long hair, loves to hike and pl

what is going to happen is a donald trump is a ghost now, he is gone, he can't even tweet and now rasmussen says he is 51% leaves office with popularity because they are overdoing it and they're stomping on a ghost and now they are going after the supporters and we've got a new bogeyman, white supremacist under every bed in america and people are going to get tired because they are nihilistic no, no, where is the yes-yes? cancel this, cancel this, cancel this. >> laura: i thought it was very negative, everyone said it was so positive, come together -- was this a positive presentation of what america is? that you find that in this speech? >> no, absolutely not. i was not just hearing the speech, i was also looking at everything going on around it with all those anthropological interests. i have never seen washington, d.c., so militarized. i've never seen so many soldiers, so many guns, so many cops, so many national guardsmen, apparently biden had his own security police and i've never seen so many fences and so many walls. the first thing to observe is that trump didn't have any of this if

according to the first daily tracking poll from rasmussen reports, president biden's job approval isdent trump's first approval rating in 2017 was a stout 56%. president obama's initial approval was -- [laughter] a superlative 67% back in 2009. >>> well, free speech and religious liberty are both under attack in washington. and here is one of our wise faith leaders warnings to his congregation. >> and once you allow the government to start controlling speech, it's not a very long trip to the persecution of the church at all. and we need to get ready for it. it is coming. lou: it's coming. it may in some cases be here. and joining us tonight, pastor robert jeffress who you just heard issue that warning. he runs first baptist church in dallas. he's also a fox business contributor and a great american. the pastor of dallas' first baptist church, pastor robert jeffress. good to have you with us, and your warning, i think, was both timely and absolutely correct. this is a nation right now on the precipice. and i think most americans understand that whether it's twitter banning a president

a rasmussen poll in 2018 showed that 28% of those surveyed believed it is likely the united states will experience a second civil war sometime in the next five years. another poll this past october placed that number at 61%. 52% admitted to stockpiling necessary goods in the event of an eruption. what gives substance to the expectation of civil wars in our future is the sense that americans now seem to belong not just two different political parties, but to different political regimes. but diversions begun in the long run in the 1970's. with each succeeding decade, the fishers have become wider and wider until the two national political parties now represent contrary views of american life. we can't even seem to agree on what year marks the american founding. intrusion into the capitol on january 6 only seemed to heighten the sense of impending conflict. no wonder people are asking, how long can we continue if this is how we instantly respond to political division. yet serious as this moment is, i do not despair of it, nor do i think it's of come will be civil war. this is why. first, f

a rasmussen poll had donald trump at 51%, one of the highest of his entire tenure.ash is growing. it's because there's not a disinterested, honest appraisal. it's all biased and asymmetrical. lou: yeah. let me -- i suspect that we're going to see the president's approval rating rise with, well, i would guess every successive month of the biden administration when we see these kinds of numbers saying the country's headed already in the wrong direction. i want to turn to two things. as a military historian, you appreciate the fact that all of our, all of our service members have a background check as they enter the service. every recruit. to see this fbi investigate suggesting that an fbi investigation or background check by any number of the contractors that do it could be in any with way extensive in a matter of days is really disinformation. i, it troubles me that we would pretend that anything thorough in the way of an investigation, background investigation could be done. do you agree? >> yeah, i think it's more for media consumption that they're trying to sugges
