There would prefer that i use a different wordd here is state dertment spokesperson quibbling with the press over the use of the word evacuate and insist the teeseven systemnd is planning with the Obama Administration sees on a cigna as a significant of its maturing in evacuation and with the administration is now calling and ordered departure. Cool with the use of the word evacuate. Its a technical term. Is it . I think it is i nontechnical term. Ordered departure is the techcal term. So if you if you look up in the dictionary definition. What wld you call if you are suddenly told you have to leave and a plan is flawed man. Forced to get on and leave. And ordered departure. Lou the etymological nonsensed. Keep all the warnings to american citizens not to travel to yemen and to those the to leave immediately to the nothing more than a travel advisory and the Obama Administration shows to update it this very morning. Declaring that advisory has been in effect for 11 years, lving the question why such a construction of language is as important to the state department. Not remotely clear at this hour, nor why the state department would not have taken earlier note that americans were traveling to yemen for years and not leaving immediately. She also sounded as if the white use had just discovered that arabs live in the Arabian Peninsula. While making sure to highlight the president s repeated claims, that his administration had decimated al qaeda in other regions. I would plead to a couple of things. One, the al qaeda core leadership has been weakened, decimated. I would point you to the president s speech to give a few months ago where he talked about that. Al qaeda is on the path to defeat and we frequently express a concern about affiliates, and this is an example of that. Lou so where does the truth lie about the socalled eminent threat in the middle east . Hard to tell with an administration that se critics have said lies about the truth, lies about lies and then tries to correct the language of the press to make their reporting conform to whenever narrative the administration is pushing. We will be taking all of this up here tonight, talking first with tom mack and ernie will analyze naonal security threats aad give us his view of the white house terrorist warnings. Breaking news now. An unnamed u. S. Official has told fox newshat the Justice Department but has filed sealed criminal charges against several suspected terrorists in the benghazi terrorist attack. The move coming nearly 11 months after terrorists stormed the u. S. Consulate in maine as the killing four americans, inuding a massive effort to about ambassador christopher stephens. Right now we do not know the exact nature of those charges. Theyre under seal with a number of suspect named. The Justice Department filing its first criminal charges according to an uamed u. S. Official. There are many Unanswered Questions why the obama administraon has ostensibly down next to nothing to track down the benghazi attackers to, and is now filing sealed Court Documents against terrorists instead of killing them are capturg them. The white house is struggling to rationalize its insistence that the threat from al qaeda in the middle east is diminished in face of their order to close facilities and in some instances to evacuate personnel. The state Department Left today to clarify the president s campaign trail rhetoricboutl qaeda being on the run, explaining president obama was then referring to al qae in afghanistan and pakistan, not necessarily in yemen or anywhere else. Seemingly more intent on further of the station rather than clearly explaining the actions of our government over the past four days. For more on the benghazi charges, we are now joined by general thomas mcinerney, retired Us Air Force General fox news military contributor. Great to have you with this. That starts with lets start with the response to what some havelaimed is an unparalleled chatter, unpalleled sinc at least september 1h. Your thougs . I think it is accurate. It signals intelligence and is giving a syndicationwish whether we overreacted and not come i dont think we had any choice. We had to close 22 embassies. But listening to your pre lewd of have good things were in the state department, here we are evacuating, arguinggwhether it is an Evacuation Order departure and we have still got 19 embassies closed. It does not look like we have been decimated al qaeda either in the Arabian Peninsula or anywhere else because this is a broad, centralized commandandcontrol apparatus that is functioning. And theyre is a leader. And so i dont get the feeling that we have decimated al qaeda. Lou you get the feeling that we have decimated at least, at the margin, some of the secrecy and the classified nature of some of our methods of gathering intelligence and the ways in which we choose to analyze the evidence that we do gather. It seems like a lot of information has been put forward by the administration, not necessary the intelligence agencies themselves, but the administration, the National Security folks that, frankly, it leaves me a little trouble the so much information is being put out about what we are learning and the way in which were responding to a. Very troubling. There is no saying in our business that washington is a ship of state that leaks from the top. It is not coming from the it is coming from the top out of the white house, their state department. And unfortunately by releasing the names of where we got this information from, we just gave up some very critical sources. It is very disturbing, all the information were releasing now. I think it has a purpose to it. I am disturbed by it, because signals intelligence has alway been our top tipper, and that i what is so disturbing. Your spot on when you bring it up. Lou denouncing what it called for an pressure and is expected in the foreign mediation efforts to end the political crisis that it failed announcing. Mccain and gramm there representing the u. S. Government in what appears to be some sort of diplomatic mission. Your thoughts about how likely it is that there can be effective, and if that is really the best approach is the administration has to move forward in u. S. Interest. After 11 guy and 12 years in the ddle east to wars up there a global war against radical islam, were not going to make democracies of those countries . Would like to have the general be of strong head of state, just like mubarak was. And for 30 years we have a very Good Relationship with egypt, and he kept the peace between the arabs and the israelis. We do not need a democratic republic like we our socalled democratic republic like morrissey got with the Muslim Brotherhood. That is the last thing we need. It is a fight for power out there in the region. Whether you get the radical islamists to win or whether you get song authoritarian governments that in general support our interest. That is what we ought to be interested in. I dont know what senators mccain and gramm are trying to do over there. It is perplexing. Lou obviously frusttated and perplexed himself. And as they have expelled the Muslim Brotherhood here, we have two senators dispatched by the president to cairo calling for e release of Muslim Brotherhood leaders who have been imprisoned by the Egyptian Military, as you say, perplexing general, is great to have you here. Thank you. The race for governor in virginia is a tossup, but a new movie and former dnc chairman could sway the vote. Filmmaker and preside of cizens united tells us all about lou virginia led to the tory candidate says the sec is now investigating by a Company Founded by the candidate does agree Tech Automotive als the subject of a new documentary said the candidates record of creation or non creation we ha a president of Citizens United david, thank you for being here. What habeen the reaction . It is a tremendous build story of individuals touched so we found former employees and people who worked there at thh carr company and actually got laid off he did not create jobs they got laidoff at the factory so he is somebody that we wanted to introduce to virginia onethird of the documentary is 30 minutes they could get a dvd where it is available at three different stations in virginia. Lou the company he helped to found through the end of next year created50 jobs . At the plant but they seem like generous and deadlines. What is the story . Fir of all, somebody who is a cody capitalist in his own words written how we use is the political ties and knowledge of Business Leaders toake money. That is how he makes money so what were seeing is a company not doing it a thing or what they wouldromise to do. He is trying to raise money from chinese iestors one thatould be under investigation not only the department of security so now there is to federal investigations going on with teighteen. So therrll be a lot of problems for a car company that may not be a good company but the involvement has caused a lot of headaches. Lou what the chairman of the National Committee said told msnbc and a cnn the Republican Party would be in their debates if they continue with the myopic of the miniseries is relting Hillary Clinton. I have to tell you it is almost a half to make use sign up with the Republican Party or for e engh nonsense. I am glad that Reince Priebus did its. It is funny they mentioned this is a since united in the letter because we had to go with the spreme crt for hilary, the movie to fight for our right to make its and advertise of course, cnn and nbc would attack as for those corporate dollars used in potics but of course, they would be used to make them produce a documentary film or a film starring diana made starring Hillary Clinton dash that intriguing at the least. [laughter] lou that is as kind of paper that you could use. I will be watching it. Lou the deal. Now check your lowes local stings for fast terry online or go to our web site if we will have a link for you as well. A builder a laughing matter in the chalk talk we will have the approval rates civic people say had letterman, why dont you make jokes about obama . I dont because i allowed the fbi to tap my phone. [laughter] i would start off with the obama joke but it would to we audited. Obama was visiting a middle school and said every school should have highspeed internet. It was awkward when the kids said that you can read or even as faster . Period he is the number one target of late jokes and obama is the punchine of 288 monologue jokes. Then the other day and into the weeder the subject of one of the 20. You know, things are not going well when you are within the category. So we will see if his jokes continue but meanwhile nearly six months after delivering the state of Union Message the second term anda to gather dust and guncontrol laws that everyone issue at the time. That died in the senate. Immigration with a gang of eight but a proposal to raise a proposal at 9 per hour has not had one single hearing in the house of representatives. With the predents good buddies organized labor with the 15 per hour were of peis structure for fastfood workers is only created more diigruntled employees the matter what they tell those 750,000 fastfood workers it isnt happening and sequester the president s idea that he blames republicans did we Mention Congress is on a 5 deees as . For the reason he has been such a failure is now he wants to become the culture war year as well. Listen to what he said during an interview with the amazon where he was talking abt Kim Kardashian and cartier west there is a shifting culture he says kids are monitoring every y when Kim Kardashian is wearing or went where st was going on vacation thinking somehow that was the mark of success. Mr. President that is like king kiddie from a baby to site they named their baby northwest in the Mainstream Media watches with the fst lady is watching just as much as Tim Kardashian and the first lady was on the cover of vogue twice as we dont count them headlights when she got ratings earlier this year does this make you at all uncomfortable to iticize a lavish lifestyle when you live in a fair size house yourself like a big airplane flight 134 rounds of golf since becoming president and by the way i dont need to remind you that you leave on saturday for the eight day vacation for Marthas Vineyard we state the 8 million estate but tt is hell least a gesture on your part is stepping down a little bit because that 21 million mansion you normally use was not available but it is onethird of what yo normally do mr. President you make the job way too easy. By the way you are not doing o badly for the rest of us either. The first charges have been filed in the bang gauzy terrorist attack. Of a month later. We react to the lou the Justice Department finally filing criminal charges against a number of suspects against the consulates in benghazi. It is called a weak response after coming four months to was involved. Joining us for the Weekly Standard is crossed fox news contributor. Here comes the news tonight that the Justice Department according to a unidentified u. S. Official unknown to the rest of the world says we have charges filed in th anode court is this a response that makes any kind of sense . In the unown court against the unknown number of suspects . It has ben reported one of e leaders with the leaders in benghazis one of them but we dont know who the others are or how many or what the charges are. There is a lot that we dont now. The justiceepartment put out a statement toy saying the investigation is ongoing it remains a top priority. We can be very clear of what its saying 11 months later cover this investigation has not been a top priority of the obama did ministration. If i had had no more or charges before he and or the on t ground raid in the people responsible would have already been held accountable or on their way and we would know more about it but nearly one year later we know very little in what information we have through the efforts of journalist but all along the way we had a series of embarrassments to find out what we did to bring them to justice lou Cable News Networks plan date the of voices of those who carry out the attack on their networks have first fox to this and no one has seen fit to kill or capture those that declare themselves to be the perpetrators of that attack. It has taken on a level of absurdity and a patte by this administration or Justice Department whether we talk about the irs, a benghazi or the irs the victims have not ben talked to by investigators from the Justice Department yet the process goes on like the investigation is a way to cuckoo in the issue from interest to keep apart from the American People. If you go back to look at the one person we know that has been charged, he was the one he was found by the New York Times reporter within one month of the attack in this reporter had a trap with the terror leader to talk abt s role he denied the active role in the attacks b danowi was there on the night of the benghazi a taxi and others who are in touch with the news media and one suspected ringleader who was he stayed in to visa and the u. S. Corporate try to getaccess we did all the with the lawyers but then the government released him a short time later and the terrorist who were supporting him at the time retaking pictures of our fbi agents on thground to post them on their facebook page. It looks like the keystone kops operation specifically to the question of the investigation. Lou keystone kops perhaps the this is incapable or incompetent but directed by the white house to be so ineffective they become something else. It is very clear the white house once this issue to go way. Jay carney himself called this a phony scandal. There is nothing here. Put this behind us a and move on. Certainly any additional questions raised about the investigation, the security posture, did ministrations and misleading stories after words are at they dont wa to have to deal with. Lou there are the increasing number of questions they know what to do with. Of an example of gornment wasted a political giveaway how one reporter gothree obama phonsmith is she is not impoverished. Lou how is this for strange bedfellows . The founder of the liberal watchdog activist organization, a media matters joins the rnc chairman grant on dash Reince Priebus calling abc and nbc to call the special former secretary of state Hillary Clinton leading up to the elections. Telling cnn your network issued a statement asking the rnc to reserve judgment until they know more about the documentary. This suggest they could be pleased with which is reason to have to suspend aa3 the project. Lou you could not invent american pplitics right now. Nor would you have any need to the real deal is too much fun. Joining us now 59 former assistant to george w. Bush and angela, media matters as great about the potential the Republican Party would be pleased with something to put them into a tizzy is fun . But i ancestries the rnc and media matters partner and Work Together maybe did what the documentary on hillary because it will upstage obama that we did not elect hillary because we elected obama. Lou it does get complicated but not as complicated at the lexicon theyre using. I have seen administrations tried to control the language that is a slight Political Correctness if you do that you control thought. This Administration Takes it to a level i have never seen. But they did is that if you tell the American People when they see a dock it is enough and they know the difference. [laughter] but they realize the war on terror continues whether osama bin waed is dead does not mean al qaeda is dead be cleared out 20 embassies around the world to move this tax out by the way we caot say evacuate. It was the orderly departure th know what igoing on and they are gting troubled by the fact that the lexicon has reached every part of the admistration whether iras iras, defense department, war on terror, they will call it their own dictionary still believe we should move the white house california since we hear National Security on jay leno . Give me a break he cannot talk to the press corps but he sits down with jay leno . Lou that the term radical islamist should not be used or the war on terror or the overseas contingency operation. The list goes on and on and to talk with jay leno i am sure you both notice he did as a radical islamist but violent radical extremi and violent extremist and did not even refer to a terrorist or radical is law becaus frankly this adminiration does not have the intellectuals o individual courage to speak graham pled the to the American People to the enemies are and that is deeply deeply irritating. Where a president choosss to make remarks and who he chooses to make remarks to speaks volumes of the remarks he is making. If i said mr. President , you will give your response at about 9 11 on john neville . And would have been fired on the sport a spot and escorted off but his condescending behavior a and indifferce speaks volumes about his intentions it let the enemies percve him to be. There is the reality that is undeniable. This president won reelection in republicans cod not come up with a candidate or a strate or a platfo or agenda to compel the ameran people to throw a president out of office even though he has presided over a disastrous Foreign Policy or economic policy. What are you guys talking about . He moos. Peking give a really good speech in the party needs to go into technology will be utilized the internet d social working class dash networking wod ever obama of lead to a debate i would get something from obama so our party needs to move into technology. No question. Reince prbus has some guts to say we will not play the game t old way a least we see with msnbc to talk about the primary debate but who is the voice the Republican Party . You have Lindsay Gramm and john mccain in cairo conducti Foreign Policy trying to reestablish the Muslim Brotherhood after the Egyptian Military had flown all. How stupid does this get . We need leadership people need to understand what it takes to win and a Good Organization but we need candidates if we do that we will win. Dont let the establishment on the party. That is the problem. Stead of bringing new people in they have qualified people out there. Lou go get them. Up next a summer of big budget flops for hollywood. We will find out of we can expect hollywood better do lou big budget blockbusters like the lone ranger and pacific rim bloc stopping at the box office is the best ever for a movie studiow t and joining us now to discuss the paradox is peter guber. Good to have you with us. I have heard i dont know if i have heard so much ink if stilleading into a summer by yet we learn all these big block buster flops you make one heck of a lot off a money. The statistical probability is the same but they have to make the big film but to move the deal they have to focus on the franchisestand there will be blood. Certainly these bills dont live up to expectations or are written down immediately say you have to expect thatice but they have no choice but to make those if they wantose to fund those studios they haveo make a big pictures. Lou but big pictures does not disqualify anyonene c certainly iron man tramples the constitution. Take a look at fi films and look at the full screen with iron man three has 407 million a big budget despicable be part to, Monsters University fast furious all of those ar not exactly the original idea i get kind of irritated with the sequels of us is something and really like then i demand it [laughter] but some of this comet r. I. P. D. . Wh a producer thinks that will rk . The lone ranger with the johnny depp for crying out loud playing toronto . Reat you have great ideas playing an upsidedown. You are a studio with jerry brown chimera that brought you all the pirates they will bring in another sequel with johnny depp with that costume may be it is irresistible you have to be the village idiot to say no when that talent comes. The studio is forced to look after some certaiy like a proven intellectual property , a comic books, comiccon evens, sequels, remakes that they drive the certainty andth thatat is inevitable. Then you make them like flapjacks every two years and it gs on and on. There already announcing another pirate and another fast furious and another avengers it is more of the same. They have to go big. Lou the chain of movie group . Chin what role do they play ofhe the financing with the change of the product for the International Audience . Th called if foreign to thehe executives it meant avery very small piece of the private today the T International is 2. 2r 2. 3 times the Domestic Box Office is it said then million to 300 million where would you ate your content . The biggest audience and that is that theyre doing. Lou the chi group how big of a play is set . Ten or 20 years . 10 screens per day brought bought ads at amc it is a seduction they have to think about china if they would use capital. So there is influence from the market is emerging but it is gigantic. These are huge markets this deduction is enormous with a lot of capit so th try to make the elements influential only better. Lou not a bad time to be a movie star or a studio despite the gnashing of teeth. They give for being with us. The abuse of the Obamaphone Program exposed and one reporter was given lou you heard about a federal program that subsidizes phone service that after reports of riveted fraud and abuse my next guest is leading the report to detail her experience and to obtain a phone to a recent National Review article entitled me and my obamaphone joining us now is a columnist for the National Review it is great to have you here. There they are. I have three of them. U how did you get one . Way easier than i expected out of any food stamp fice he will be approached by people to safety you have your free phone via . That is the interesting choice of words i applied for eight and i got three. Lou t a bad statiics. They did not do their due diligence. I did not live for it be of might informations. They saidhis is rebecca nonsense. I wish they had checked but i got this phone you can look at it. This is owned by the mexican billionaire one of the richest people in the world he gets half a billion dollars per year in subsidies with a life line phones. Lou who writes the check . A the federal government the ftc gives the Companies Money that is why there is the incentive to put the phon in the hands wth consumers not doing the homework. That is irresponsible of the federal government because the phones are to be for people who cannot afford the basic 10 per but plan but yet of the fall plan they will tell the dash try to sell you the upgrade seer over 10. You pay for those but that takes with theurpose of the program if you can pay for the a grades you do not need the government to pay for your phone. Lou they dont care who can afford it there is no distinction and the market. Those who are hawking t obamacare the phone they cant just position emselves . There are usually too and they will literally watch somebodys sign you up then they will try to sign you up even though youre only supposed to have one her household you can see how they end up with 30 or 40 i am not eligibl and got three. It has grown incredibly look at 2003 2008 it was around 800 million but last year to point to billion more thhn double nearly triple and a lot of these cases are fraud and abuse. Lou as you have reported on television, we have to have some way to say this is madness. Is there any program that does not keep growing by leaps and bounds exponentially . Is there any way to curtail such fraud, abuse . It is frustrating beyond belief. I know they have done audits beforehere 41 percent of the lifeline customers had improved eligibility but you can reform all you want but the federal governmendoes not belong in the cl phone business no more than they belong in the welfare business but problems are inevitable when put gether lou there is a lot of government in a lot of things. Take you for pointing it out. Thinks you for being here. Come back soon. That jerry well as symbolism will be back after vacation. Of his.
