Fbi official brennan, clapper and comey would be in the crosshairs of this criminal investigation. The Vice President taking on china and the nba. And former nba star Charles Barkley wasnt too happy about it. My next guest ive always been excited for whats next. Im still going for my best. Even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. So if theres a better treatment than warfarin, ill go for that. Eliquis. Eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. Plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis is fdaapproved and has both. Whats next . Sharing my roots. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis, the number one cardiologistprescribed blood thinner. Ask your doctor if eliquis is whats next for you. But she wanted someone who loves with the cats. Ng. So, we got griswalda. Dinners almost ready. But one thing we could both agree on was getting geico to help with our renters insurance. Yeah, switching and saving was really easy drink it all up. Good could have used a little salt. Visit geico. Com and see how easy saving on renters insurance can be. Trish the war of words around the nba and china reaching the highest level we have seen in basketball and politics. Charles barkley Holding Nothing back against Vice President pence. Watch what set off the Gold Medalist and what some are calling bar claims offensive reaction. Some of the nbas biggest players and owners who routinely use their freedom to criticize this country lose their voices when it comes to the freedom and rights of the people of china. Vice president pence should shut the hell up number one. Allamerican companies are doing business in china, while these holier than thou politicians, if they want to worry about china, why dont they stop all transactions with china. Trish joining me niger innis and david morey. What did you make of mr. Barclays comments . Usually i like sir charles and his many colorful statements. But i disagree vehement vehemently. The nba fashions itself as the woke league. The entire nba boycotted North Carolina because of a bathroom law they have down there. Somehow the silence is deafening when it comes to exercising free speech and the people of shopping congress waving american flags, singing the star spangled banner wanting freedom. Trish david, you have got to admit thats messed up. The Houston Rockets general manager who stood for democracy. They tried to back peddle it, but the cat was already out of the bag. We know the nba wants billions of dollars in revenue with china. They are a business, i get it. But they are very representative i think of america and our values, one of which is freedom and of course democracy. Something the hong kong protesters were trying to stand for. Right now you have a conflict and tension between American Free speech and chinese diplomacy. American free speech will and should win in that conflict and tension. Charles barkley has one point i might agree with. People hate that from both sides, from both parties. Remember Vice President pence left in a preplanned stunts of leaving the nfl when some of the players took a knee during the national anthem. Something im not a fan of. But this is not a natural advocate for free speech. Darkly is talking barkley is talking about free speech, i give him room there. Trish it strikes me every other president in recent history, you look at the soaring gdp in china. They have taken off because they have taken off. American companies wants access to that, access to the billion plus consumers. But no one is thinking about america in all of this. Every ceo is thinking about him or herself. Everybody shareholder is thinking about him or herself. Nobody is thinking about how this will affect our country, the United States of america, niger, 10, 20 years down the road. Isnt that the place where government needs to step in. They need to say, hey, nba, if you dont actually stand for values this country represents, maybe you shouldnt be doing business over there. Its those very values that have made millionaires out of these players. The freedom of expression, that free market capitalism, or embraims of free market capitalism along with democracy that makes us the house and the nba the multibillion dollar industry that it is. It is our trade deficit with china the last 30 years that made hem the second largest economy of in the world. President trump to his credit is the first president republican or democrat that is finally challenging them and its long overdue. Trish david, you go back historically, everybody has been concerned about it. Bill clinton expressed concerns, but nobody ever did anything. Thats a fair points. The president did make a move. Im not sure it many the right move. But lets see if it works. We have got to get along with china. The two biggest super powers in the world have to deal with each other. All kinds of issues. So we have got to get our trade stuff sorted out. China needs to change some of their ways, piracy, counterfeiting. Trish i hope they get there. But i think if we get a trade deal it will be the distinguish of something, but i wont be a panacea. We have much more work when it comes to china. Niger, david, good to see you. Coming up, we have a video of a rather are fat cat that refuses to run on a treadmill. Thats going viral. Are you working out . Good girl. Thats good work.

Now its criminal. The American People deserve to know why exactly what some people call and Witch Community pardon me, thats the president s term. Now we have reason to believe the origins may involve a crime, at least according to how this probe is taking a turn. Dont worry, cnn contributor and former fbi director who was fired for lying under oath says there is nothing to see here. I know because i was there in the room when these decisions were made. I worked with the team thats opened and initiated these cases. I know nothing improper was done. Are there legitimate questions about how the investigation began . And laws were broke snn. No, not from my perspective. Trish you are not bothered by the fact that they got a fisa warrant and they put a footnote that it was Opposition Research they were because it on. Joining me, former fbi agent. Does it trouble you, as someone who used to be at the fine, that they were getting fisa warrants based on Opposition Research that had never been checked. Andy mccabe being on cnn, he can cover his own trial if things dont go well. Its totally out of the norm for the fbi. Using Opposition Research to try to get your fisa. Any other agent would have been thrown out for doing Something Like that. Its good we are going to look at this. Let the chips fall where they may. Trish any sense of why its become a criminal probe . They are finding things that are clearly not the norm and cross the line. What they are doing now is talking to all the peripheral people. The witnesses, gathering information. And eventually you will see subpoenas to interview people who are potential suspects. Trish meaning . Mccabe, clapper, brennan, comey . All of the above. If crimes were committed, they were authorized and agents were instructed to commit certain acts. Here everything was being done by Senior Leadership of the fbi. The agent on the streets were exclude from doing the operations they are trained to do. Trish it was a tightknit group. The former National Security advisor Michael Flynn is accusing agents of lying about his interview with them. Its quite an accusation. What are your thoughts on this . Again, we are talking the same people doing that investigation. Flynn refers to the 302. The 302 is not a form you fill out. Its a blank sheet of paper agents write the report on. The question is do the notes the agents took match what was said and reported in the interview . This is a significant interview. Was it recorded . If we are talking of somebody who is just a witness, they dont record. But if we are talking to somebody who we are looking at as a possible subject, we record that to insure the accuracy. Trish George Papadopoulos was on the show earlier. Its believed whatever conversations he had with Australian Embassy folks may have launched a lot of this or kicked it into high gear. It was several months after that they used the crest for steele dossier to basically get themselves a fisa warrant. Or at least thats how it appears to me. So is there any chance that this is somehow all interconnects . I dont know if you had a chance to listen to what papadopoulos was saying. He believes he was somewhat set up and there were a lot of people trying to follow him and understand what his links were because they believed the russians were trying to infiltrate him. But he doesnt think it was the russians. If the russians were trying to infiltrate him and i did hear what he had to say, the fbi could have gone to him and say, hey, warning, the russians are trying to infiltrate. And they didnt do that. But they were looking maybe we can catch somebody in a crime and do as investigation. Obviously biases were at play. Thats not what you see from the rank and file, the good men and women. This is what you saw from a select few at headquarters. Trish its wild, all of it, for sure. You have never seen anything like this in your career, right . In my 20someodd years i have never seen anything approaching it. I didnt even have a sign in my front yard supporting anybody. Thats how agents behave. But we can rest assured the average agent is out there doing the job and doing it properly. Its just a select few. Trish coming up, the video of a fat cat refusing to run on an under water treadmill. You working out . Good girl. Thats good work. Trish foxnation host kat timpf is sheer with that story and a couple other funny ones. nationwide jingle alexa added ukulele to band shopping list.

Of kat timpf. Well do baby shark, and then well go to kat. Baby shark is the mascot thats been touring d. C. And apparently going around handing out little baby sharks. Listen. People talk about the beatles all the time, i agree the beatles are great, big fan. However, im not sure theyve reached the level of popularity that baby shark has reached at this point. I have no children, my friends dont have children, no one in my family has children, yet ive heard the song. Trish do we have the song, guys . It goes theres no reason for me to have heard this song, there are no children in my life. And yet ive heard it, i just sang it. [laughter] honestly, good for you, baby shark people, whoever you are. Im a capitalist. They created a great product. Trish they sure did. We love that. Everybody loves this cat named cinder block who doesnt want to get on a tread mill. Yeah. Shes on the tread mill and just going like this instead of actually walking. Of. Trish we have it. Yes. I can watch it all day. Honestly, this really hit home for me because i took my cat to the vet for his checkup this weekend, and hes gotten a little fat. Not like this, but the vet said we need to have him play more. He wont play. He wont do anything. The only thing hell bat around is air pads and iphone cords. So he only wants apple products. Trish wow. What a fancy cat. I found him behind a dumpster. I have no idea where he gets this idea. Trish hes getting used to the good life. I know. We were talking about this. Trish maybe. Do you like scary movies . I love scary movies, i dont do Haunted Houses. Trish i dont like either, is so i dont know who would actually do this, but i dont even like saying this, the picture of Haunted Houses. This Haunted House is offering 20 grand if you go there and actually manage to escape because, apparently no ones done it. Listen, the last time i ever set foot in a Haunted House was 15 years ago. I was in high school. I was with my friend britney. Within minutes, i was so scared. She could walk for me while i cried into her hair. So i dont think i could do this for 20 grand. I dont think i could to do this for 20 million. Trish and they give you a safe word. They give you a 40page waiver. Im convinced theyre trying to murder these people because i dont know what else would be necessary. Trish yeah. , no i wouldnt want to do it. No. I dont get it. I dont understand the Haunted House thing. You pay money for people to harass you trish wait a second, i with can get that on the streets of new york city. [laughter] lastly, a new study revealing that not washing your hands may actually be more dangerous than eating raw meat. This is like our Public Service announcement. Yeah, wash your hands, you sickos. Honestly, if eating raw meat is wrong, i dont want to be right. I dont get the not washing your hands after you go to the bathroom. You dont have to go into the woods and find a stream for water. The faucets right there. Cold and flu season is upon us. You should want to watch your hands anyway. Trish you sure you dont have kids . I dont have kids. I have a cat. Trish its a good mom message. Thats ooh our Public Service message for the week, everybody. Wash your hands. I would be a great mom. Everyone says that. Trish good to see you. All right. With weve got a lot more next week. Doug wead, whos out with some headlines of his own in a brand new book and, apparently, the president told him he thinks that president obama has committed treason. As it relates to all this fisa stuff. So we are going to talk to doug wead next tuesday. In the meantime, Maria Bartiromo joins you right now for her wall street week beginning right now.
