todd piro, it's outrageous.in. >> my concern, congressman, is that we've been talking about getting this money back, finding the fraud in covid money and obviously this $30 million to an organization that is connected to hamas is not good. when is the clawback going to happen? when is our treasury going to get this money? >> well, i'll tell you, the small business -- small businesses and small business community which i chair, we're all over this. we have had the inspector general do the audit, 200 billion, could be 600 billion, the sba a thinks it's 36 billion, like it's chump change. we'll be announcing a program where we put america on commission, we'll ask americans to find the money and pay them 10%, commission, we'll pay them 15% if it comes from china. we want people engaged. we want to get the money back. it's the people's money. i look at it as a business guy. it's a payable the government has to the people and it's of receive y'all we have for the government -- receivable we have for the government. we

todd piro with me this morning. , the president says no ceasefire until the hostages are released. what do you say to that? >> that is not the right response, and the reason has nothing to do with the hostages themselves. this is not about rescuing the hostages, as sad as that may be. israel is going to wipe hamas off the face of this earth regardless of whether or not there are talks with hamas or not. israel really doesn't care about talking with hamas. every guest has said the time for talk is over, we're going to annihilate them. that said, we, the united states government and the israeli government, these to move heaven and earth to try and is rescue the hostages. do not misinterpret what i'm saying. but in terms of negotiating with hamas, israel is not going to do that. and if we keep saying we are not going to interfere with their ability to wage war, then we need to listen to to what we say and abide by what we say. stuart: hostage taking is an effective strategy. in this case it works for the bad guys. >> fo

todd piro will be reacting shortly he is here. get your reaction. >> mind-boggling to think what is happening and even more so there are so many people in this country questioning israel's resolve and write to not only defend himself but proactively take action. i'm also amazed you to share the headlines that hamas is harming its own people. this is not about israel going after innocent palestinians this is israel going after terrorist called hamas who happened to be palestinians. maria: we heard this from day one that as soon as israel responds to the deadly attacks that the hamas terrorist group launched on israel a week and a half ago that as soon as israel responds the whole mainstream media and the other side are going to say is israel's fault, that's exactly what is happ happening. it is hamas which has created a humanitarian crisis, not israel. we keep hearing the rhetoric from the squad, rashida tlaib could not condemn young babies being beheaded. with people going forward same different schools at cornell professor was ex

todd piro with us today. president speaks to the nation tonight, but he leads a very divided party. >> and i'm not in the business of giving democrats political and electoral advice, but he better get this together if he wants a shot at winning in 2024 because there's even talk that these pro-hamas, let's call them what they are, pro-palestinian factions are not going to vote for president biden. they're going to get their people to not vote. well, a lot of these individuals are in very, very important swing states, so if that happens, he has a huge lek -- electoral problem. this pro-has maas -- a hamas faction of his party is really causing problems for our response, ultimately, at the end of the day. and i wonder what the chuck schumers of the world, obviously, a very pro-israel member of congress, thinks about this and how he is going to get the president to bring these groups together. if you hear the language of people like a shed do tlaib -- rashida tlaib, i doubt he can ultimately bring those factions

todd piro with us this morning.pretty strong support. >> not surprising support when you see the images coming across our screen. but i'd like to focus on the palestinian number there. i think to many americans they may associate palestinians with hamas, and that is a huge row to hoe for the palestinian authority. because if they're associated with hamas, obviously, hamas is the one causing this destruction, those numbers are going to decrease even further. it is the incumbent upon the palestinian authority to figure out a solution with israel before he's too late -- it's too late, but it does appear like it's too late. what was so fascinating to me, stuart, we dipped into a press conference with the israeli president, herzog, to that comment but you're going to kill up to 2 million of the innocent people in gaza, he responded they had an opportunity to overthrow hamas during their time there. now, whether that's true or not, i'm just reporting what was said. and so when i hear something like that, stu, it leads me
