in the most fortified city in america? on a day when the vice president and almost every lawmaker was inside and when everyone knew there was going to be a big rally expected at the capitol that day, now, coming up tonight, the person who was serving as the capitol police chief on january six , steven son , he will join us and help answer that question. and it's an extremely important question. as i said at the time, the january 6th committee, they had a predetermined outcome to go after donald trump, bludgeon him as much as possible. and that's why congressman jim jordan, congressman jim banks were off the committee. they were kicked off the committee. and only members that impeach donald trump were allowed on the committee. not exactly a fair committee. now, sadly, democrats are not interested in learning how the capitol is breached, why security failed so badly. but here's the saddest part to me. and it should be the whole country. and that is this whole saga. it is the very key and important information that we now know about intelligence that they had that was being ignored in the lead up to january six . and they should have come up with a comprehensive security plan to ensure this could never, ever happen. again, like securing a perimeter, kind of like at the white house. you know, they have those concrete barriers that prevent you from getting on 16 hundred pennsylvania avenue. then they have the big wrought iron fencing. we should all agree on this point. this is not a political point. protecting our institutions like our capital and every elected official, regardless of party. it needs to be a top priority. but for democrats and others, politicizing something in this case, smearing donald trump was the only thing that seem to matter to that committee. but you don't have to take little sean hannity's word for it. to their credit, even nbc news pointed out all of this during a report this year a little late, but they pointed it out. good for them. now to our nbc news exclusive, the january six committee's final report was more than eight hundred pages, but some material did not make the cut, including much of its findings on the failures of federal law enforcement leading up to the attack. >> the chief investigator of the january committee says the government could have prevented it had law enforcement agencies acted on the available intelligence. do you believe the attack on the capitol could have been successfully repelled? >> i think it would have been a lot different had law enforcement taken a more assertive, protective posture. the intel in advance was pretty specific, and it was enough, in our view, for law enforcement to have done a better job operationalizing a secure perimeter. law enforcement had a very direct role in contributing to really the failures, the security failures that led to the violence. >> people familiar with the committee's work tell nbc news members downplayed that finding because they wanted to keep the focus on former president trump. >> committee members dispute that haiti would not discuss internal deliberations. >> was this an intelligence failure? it was not an intelligence failure that we survive. we he says. >> the committee found the fbi, the department of homeland security and other agencies did not act on the intelligence they had, including this online threat forwarded to capitol police. jan 5th, calling on thousands to go to washington and help storm the capitol. in a statement to nbc news, the fbi said it sent all the intelligence it had to the capitol police. >> so the partisan trump hating january six committee with a predetermined outcome. sadly, buried the security breakdowns from its reports, even though the committee's own chief investigator found, quote, a lot of advance intelligence about law enforcement, about carrying weapons, about the vulnerability of the capitol and quote, the intel in advance was pretty specific and it was enough, in our view, for law enforcement to have done a better job. now, think about this. security officials, washington, d.c., they knew the massive crowd is going to be gathering for a rally only blocks away from the capitol on january 6th. in the days, the weeks leading up to january six , the fbi, other federal security agencies ,they were tracking what they describe as a large volume of intelligence showing violent agitators plotting, planning, scheming, an attack on our capitol . the u.s. capitol . and yet a few hundred capitol police were left to fend for themselves on a massive capitol complex spanning multiple huge buildings with dozens of entrances and one of the most important days of the year. so the question is , how on earth did this happen and why was this not the main focus of this committee that could have gone after trump and they could have done this part, the job that mattered to , frankly, which was more important to prevent it from ever happening again? the capitol police chief at the time, steven son , was begging for help before the riot. but according to sunde, his request for the national guard were rejected or delayed six separate times. watch this from jacinta's. when i asked paul irving for the national guard, he used the term optics. and what's interesting is i'm on the phone with the pentagon at 9:30 four , begging for the national guard deploy to assist my men and women and lieutenant general pide is using the term concern for the optics. i'll never forget it. quote, i'm concerned of the optics of the military standing in line with the capitol in the background. so here they are both using the exact same term. when you see the level of intelligence now that was out there, you're just dumbfounded by it. that didn't that didn't occur. those were lessons we should learn from september 11th that we still haven't learned by january six , intelligence was treated completely different on january six . >> and it usually is for major events in washington, d.c., optics. could there possibly be a worse optics than what we saw in january ? six and on such an important day, why take the risk protecting members of congress, the vice president and president of our capital should take priority, should they not? not optics. but instead of digging into the security failures, democrats, they conducted multiple investigations and of course, their impeachment and january six committee that focus almost solely on donald trump. and now there is no plan to prevent this from ever happening again. and because of their anti trump rage, they're not even able to conduct a serious investigation into a riot that they have been obsessing about for more than two years. and no safety measures have been put in place. pretty hypocritical. and it's also dangerous, especially from a group of people who never really seem to care about the riots. this was political bludgeoning for them and about real safety and security on january 6th. now, we all remember, for example, in the summer of 2020 five hundred and seventy four violent riots that summer, democrats all but they either told you nothing or they ignored them or they lied to you and told you they were mostly peaceful. what happened? we had dozens of dead americans. we had thousands of injured cops. they were hit with rocks and bottles and molotov cocktails. and worse, we saw looting and arson on a massive scale, billions and billions of dollars worth of property damage, zero two investigations from democrats in congress, no investigate into high ranking politicians like kamala harris that were out there supporting the l funds for the people involved in these, quote, activities, the rioting. others were pouring fuel on the fire by vilify cops and pushing the defund dismantle no bail laws of police departments. they did nothing as a federal courthouse in portland was lit on fire over and over and over and over again. there wasn't one single solitary committee meeting or committee put together to look into those five hundred and seventy four riots. they ignored the riot at the white house where secret service offices were attacked, you may recall, and the president was forced to evacuate that night to a bunker. most americans deplore all violent riots. we condemn every one of them. we condemn january six in real time on my radio show. and right here that night on this show, most americans want our elected officials, regardless of what their party affiliation is , to be safe and protected. this needs to transcend politics. you would think this is something democrats or republicans should be protecting together. and by the way, that would also include supreme court justices. they should be protected. there are laws against people protesting in front of their homes, but we're not enforcing those laws. for many democratic politicians, a violent riot is a political opportunity. why? i guess they think they can rally their base or certainly they don't want to alienate their base. and maybe that's why they weren't and aren't focused on very real security failures at the capitol on january six . or maybe it's because a prominent democrat is to blame for those security failures. according to the former capitol police chief steven sun , who will join us in a minute. the house sergeant at arms turned down his national guard request prior to january six because, quote, i will never get this by pelosi. joining us now with more, the author of the brand new book. it's called courage under fire . former capitol police chief steven sunde is with us . sir, thank you for being here. number one , i'm sorry, what happened to your fellow officers? that day? it breaks my heart. a lot of my family has it in law enforcement. when any law enforcement officers that is hurt. i'll let you tell the story. how many times in total do you remember? recall requesting the national guard? >> well, first of all, sean, thank you very much for having me on tonight. and i really appreciate you kind of talk about the 20, 20 riots coming up to january six . is that something i tied together in my book? there was a number of requests. i went on january 3rd requesting the national guard from paul irving. that was the first request for the for the national guard. i then went to mike stanger, who is the senate sergej arms now, paul irving, is a politically appointed by speaker pelosi. he initially, when i asked for the national guard on january 3rd, which was a sunday, was the first day of the new congress. he said specifically, quote, i don't like the optics. and besides, the intelligence didn't support it. his concern for the optics, i believe, goes back to pelosi's decision, that statement that she referred to the federal agents and national guard on the streets of america as storm troopers. and i think she just didn't want to look at storm troopers up on the hill. and then come january six . and i think what your what your viewers don't realize is the restrictions i have as the chief of police, i'm one of the only chiefs in the united states . i am the only chief in the united states that has a federal law, a law passed by members of congress that prevents me from calling in any federal resources, either in advance, like i try to do on january or even while i'm under attack without going and getting the politically appointed sergeant arms approval. so at twelve fifty three were attacked on the west front of the capitol. i'm watching my officers getting brutally beaten. >> i pick up the phone at twelve fifty five . i call for assistance our partner agency right right next door and then at twelve fifty i call paul irving ,speaker pelosi's appointee to the capitol police. board and tell them it's really bad on the bus. can i interrupt? is speaker of the house in charge of security at the capitol? >> so you have the politically appointed capitol police board that's put in place by the sergeant arms. it's put in place by pelosi. you have the senate sergeant arms have put in place by the senate leadership, and then you have the architect of the capitol that's put in place by the president . so you have three voting members. i'm a non-voting member. i'm the only non politically appointed non-voting member. and that's kind of how the security oversight works. but it was paul irving who immediately said, i'm going to run it up the chain. i'll never forget that running up the chain of his chain of command ends that speaker pelosi and i had to wait seventy one minutes to finally get an approval at two to nine p.m. before i could finally reach out and start calling in federal assistance. seventy one minutes, women, men and women fought on the brutally i mean fought heroically to prevent the capitol from being defended, i mean, from being penetrated. and it took 80 minutes before the first window was broken. so those were critical, essential minutes we're losing. let me go back a little bit and it was a number of days out of january six and the issue of the national guard first came up and you had not seen enough intelligence that convinced you that you would need the guard at that time within a day or two later. correct me if my timeline is wrong. my understanding is that new intelligence came in that alarmed you to such a degree that you felt that would absolutely need the guard. we would need other law enforcement help for the capitol police. is that how is that the timeline? is that an accurate timeline? no, that's that's actually not how it played out. so january 3rd, the morning of january 3rd, i went over to see paul irving at 9:30 four a.m. in the morning to request the national guard. the final intelligence assessment didn't come out to the evening of january 3rd. >> it was pretty much reviewed maybe on the fourth. but you got to understand that intelligence assessment didn't even indicate the level of threat that we now know existed. the significant threat that was out there, the fact that the fbi was tracking eighteen domestic terrorist suspects that were coming to the capital and my intelligence unit on the fourth, fifth and sixth put out intelligence. i was saying low probability of civil disobedience. and what's interesting is , is my my deputy chief and assistant chief over intelligence even had me approved, recommended approval for the permits that were taking place on capitol grounds. >> most of those approvals came through on the 4th. so, you know, here we are, the fifth. >> i've got a big video call with all the heads of intelligence, law enforcement agencies from the district of columbia, as well as military leadership in dc. and no one's no one's sending up the blue balloon or ringing any alarms about the intelligence. so my request for the national guard was based on my law enforcement experience. i knew i had a large perimeter. i knew we were going to have the vice president up on the hill as well, as well as both joint session of congress in place. and it was going to take a lot of my staffing. so i knew i didn't have significant staffing for the perimeter. and that's why i wanted the national guard to help stand on the perimeter to help defend . >> let me ask you this, because i just played in full that nbc news report that our our top law enforcement agencies, our top intelligence agencies had information about people plotting, planning and scheming and attack for that day. in other words, they knew this was a real clear and present danger and yet there were no reinforcements sent to you. it seems like they left you hanging out there to dry in retrospect, hearing that, what does that mean to you? >> i find that very concerning. i mean, having done many events, i mean, i've handled numerous inaugurations, numerous nces. i've never seen intelligence handled this way before and for events with far lesser threat streams, usually the fbi would do a briefing, a joint intelligence bulletin would call and do a video, a conference call, even none of that occurred. now, or find out dhs failed to share information, but my own intelligence unit didn't put some of the significant intelligence that i now know they they had into their final assessment. there's a risk, you could have been done. i was just going to say to better prepare us . yeah. what do you do? what did you think of the mayor declining, calling up the guard under any circumstances until she said it was okay by that point? was way too late? >> well, i find that concerning a find concerning the memorandum that's put in place, restricting any national guard from carrying any civil disobedience equipment. but i think the mayor's mayor's letter goes hand in hand with what speaker pelosi didn't want to see the storm troopers out on the streets. so it really tied our hands that day. and , you know, looking back at the way you started into this talk about the january six committee, what people need to realize the restrictions i had as the chief and ask yourself why the january six committee never requested that i come and publicly testify. >> think about that. i'm the chief of the capitol police to have me come down and publicly testify before january six committee because i think they were concerned it would begin to show what went on the six one on the days leading up to the six and what was the involvement of political leadership and their appointees. wow, this is a story that should have been highlighted. and frankly, we should have more security measures in place immediately. that should be a top priority. you agree with that last part? i have to run. i absolutely agree, sir. you know. >> all right, sun , first of all, thank you for your courage, your heroism. your service, and my condolences for the loss of life that day. >> thank you for. thank you very much, sir. now, clearly, the january 6th committee did absolutely nothing to improve security at the capitol more . you know, it was more of a weekly group session for those with trump derangement syndrome. my next guest, congressman jim jordan, was that was originally selected to be on the committee. but nancy pelosi wouldn't let him or congressman jim banks be on it. i guess he didn't hate donald trump enough. and , of course, government waste and abuse extends far beyond the january six committee currently, jordan is now investigating the ftc for targeting a private citizen, in this case, elon musk. they reportedly demanded that twitter turn over musk communications because they're very angry with how he's running his company with more chairman of the judiciary committee, jim jordan. you were kicked off the january committee and replaced you and jim banks, replaced by liz cheney and adam kinzinger, all people that voted to impeach trump would. do you believe, as far as the police chief just outlined, that we missed serious intelligence? and since this day, we've missed an opportunity to build in protections that should have been put in place long before. i think the tea had it exactly right, sean, when he said they were concerned about the optics and the chief was exactly right why they had that concern, because as you pointed in your great monologue, what happened the entire summer of twenty , twenty , the democrats all said it was peaceful protests, peaceful protest in portland for one hundred days. they assaulted the federal courthouse there. so with that backdrop, it's kind of tough then to do the right thing and make sure the capital is protected with additional security, additional law enforcement and the national guard. and i believe that's why nancy pelosi didn't do it. and , of course, we had what happened, what took place that day then then then then occurred because it wasn't the posture, the proper posture wasn't there to make sure the capitol was. don't we have every indication that, in fact, this committee had all of this intelligence, all of this information, and yet they chose not to highlight it. is that true? well, i don't i think they've sort of kept it from everyone. we knew they weren't going to highlight this. this was the committee to go after president trump because they were out to get him from well, since he first ran in 2016, they've been out to get him. so we knew what this committee was about. it was all political . i think they just wanted to ignore that, not see that. and we couldn't. i think it's why she kept off the committee because there was a story when we were first named to the committee by speaker mccarthy when he said jim and i were going to be on the committee, that there was a story that said pelosi is fine with the selections. and then we started talking about this very issue and that term optics that they were concerned about. >> and the next thing you know, she says, nope, we're not going to let them on all right. let's talk a little bit about this elon musk investigation. that's going on . >> you could explain it better than me. well, the ftc called up, sent letters to a private company and asked them what journalists who in the press are you talking to ? now, think about this. this may be the most egregious threat to the first amendment i've ever seen. they and this harassment of twitter started when elon musk bought the company, i think 12 different letters they sent in a span of like two months. but the most egregious part, my judgment, was the idea that they're going after journalists and they even named personally some journalists in there who were part of the twitter files. two of those individuals named, by the way, are going to be testifying in front of our committee on thursday. so when you're saying what what what happened to jim baker is one of the questions they ask elon musk, who are these journalists that you're giving access to information? these are the four names we know. who else have you talked to ? what have you told these journalists? i don't know that i've ever seen this kind of attack on first amendment, freedom of the press like we see and what the ftc is doing. >> so let me make sure i understand this, that you you will now investigate the ftc. they are now targeting a private citizen, but his pictures on the screen, elon musk demanding that twitter turn over his private communications because they're angry with him, how he's running the company and all of the journalists that he hired, like matt taibbi and other people to get to the bottom of what actually happened as it relates to the censorship issue of of biden's laptop. now, they want to punish him for doing that there because that's what it sounds like. you're exactly right. they're so out to restrict first amendment free speech rights and freedom of the press. they want to know every single communication elon musk has had ,who he's communicating with , who's communicated with him, who's talked about him, and they want to go out to the press. i mean, this if this isn't the weaponization of government, sean, i don't know what is . okay, but you will get to the bottom of it starting on thursday. >> yeah. remember, sean, the fbi told twitter to block certain speech. now, the ftc comes in and said ,who were the journalists you were talking to about the speech? the fbi told you to block? that is crazy, but that's exactly what's going on . that sounds pretty chilling. congressman jim jordan, we'll be watching closely. thank you. all right. coming up, we'll bring you the very latest on the tragic story of four americans kidnaped at the border. two did not survive. steven miller, chip roy, they weigh in on biden's endless border crisis madness. >> that's straight ahead. this is britain. debris, wet nail fungus grows, nonoxynol gel, cleans out fungus by removing keratin debris, using non-exchange 90% of nails improve by non-fixed at wal-mart, rite aid, cvs and walgreens. >> nail fungus is next up. the nail starts improving the appearance of fungus damage, toenails in just two days. it's clinically proven. formula penetrates the nail for results you can see quickly opti nail give fungus damage, toenails a makeover. >> three three hundred. >> and today, and today. i saw balance of nature on television commercials and i said, you know what, i'm going to try this. i feel great every single day. >> after taking it for several months, i began to notice the benefits as an athlete. to balance in nature is a game changer. i noticed. >> did it start working in my endurance and i feel that it had a lot to do with my health. >> start now by going to balance of nature .com. >> and don't forget to use discount code, fox news tomorrow for small town farmers. welcome big city women. a moment here for a chance at love in the heartland. so what are you looking for?

i would tell mexican government, if you don't cleant nt i up your act, we're going to clean it up for you. >> all right. so how many times has this, administration lied to you, the americanthe people lied to all of us telling us the border teli is secure. here's a quick reminder. >> sounds to most folks like a crisis. well, look, it's way down now.' we've now gotten controllosed. precisely that. >> the border is closed. nor could i have been clear andn continue to be sd o, which is te >> ter is closed. >> the united states will continuehe united ue too e to es and secure our border, the border. >> we are working to makesecure the border more secure. >> t >> you're confident this border secure?

what about the four familieslie that lost their kids in hays poisoning.xas, where i live to fentanyl poisoning? what about almost one thousandce dead migrants found on texas ranches in the rio grande river or the fifty three who died in a tractor trailer in texas heat last august? where is this administration's compassion? e where all the churches in the the ngos down on the rio grande river with their compassion, patting themselves on the back for being pro migrant when all of those migrants are dying and americans are dying enough o ,n ho more words.n wed republicans ought to hold the line on this.o desi we oughtgnate them to designatea terrorist and we ought to withhold funding until weoo get this administration to do their job to secure the border. >> let me ask you, stephen , we had a secure border. we had a policy called the stay in mexico policy. we built hundreds and hundreds ha of miles od f border wall .e ge we didn't quite get to the endge ,but we had nothing like this in the trump years. th as a matter of fact, we had the lowest numbers of illegal immigrants enterin g a countrycoun in those yearstr. years. joe biden, to me, is aidinghe and abetting the law breaking. he's allowing it to happen. alln this wg e do know how to stop i stop this and prevent this. whwhy is hy is it not doing tha? well, first of all, to your point, sean, in 2020, we had a a policy of complete and total removal. any illegal immigrant from anyan y, anywhere in the worldillega that came across our border illegally, they were apprehended and either sent to mexico on to remain in mexico. they they were sent to guatemala orar another country under a safe thirthey werd agreement or they. returned to their home country. there was zero releases ofzero illegal aliens into our country.of aliens into ou joe biden came into office.ed eo he terminated every singleli policy i just mentioned and began the process of resettlinghe g illega illegal is by the millions into our country. hee millions int is a human smu he is a huma n trafficker and he is the single best financial asset.st fin the cartel'sancial have. and now we see the bloodshede that he has wrought. we seeth the suffering that he has wrought. we see the death that he hass wu wrought.gh and this is al anl on his hands and the hands of every single spolitician in washingtonwho who supports joe biden's policies. and after the electionts joe he wants amnes schumer said he wants amnesty for for each and everyty one .et chip, i'll give you the lastis word on this. and that is that i would even argue that that illegal t immigrants are getting preferentialhat treatment. they didn't have a vaccine mandate in the middle of a pandemic. they didn't even have a covert check. we had kids in cages. the media that railed against donald trump didn't say a word. then we got the biden phoneand r issue and free transportation to any one of the fortactiony states in the continental us . that's that'ontinents aiding, a assisting. >> if i did it, would i get arrested?

>> yeah, we sure do so. and that is why the american people deserve to see what their government knows about the origins of covid, because we had people like dr. fauci ,wv nobody more than dr. fauci who went out there and said, oh, cod no, this couldn' never have come from a lab. in fact, if yoa elabu thinork tu are a crazy conspiracy theorist, you should be taken off a social media. you shouldn't be allowed to sayi that stuff in public. and as it turnt s out, our own government has known fortime t some time that it likely cames from a lab. sodeth let's declassify it. let's let the american people see everything thatnt has the government has got on the origins of covid. origins of and let's hold people like dr. fauci accountable for their lies. what about this this memo thats was created at the request odrf dr. fauci and now new evidence suggesting that not only to dr.. fauci prompt the drafting of this publication that would disprove the lab leak theory. is it true he might have edited and rewritten parts of it? itand then quoted it as an independent source when in fact, he was actively involved in it? >> is that true? i i've seen i've seen the news reports, john . i don't know if it's true thatio he was actively involved, t he s though.. the news reports certainly suggest he was. he did cite it from the podium . what we do know is that fauci actively, actively workedvely w to discredit the idea. or i believe fact that this came from a lab that was a lab leak,a originated in a lab leak. he actively worked to to discourage that, to discredit that when our own government was collecting intelligence that suggested it did, in fact, comement was from a lab. we nee and this is why we need to let the american people see it no more . pe no more .d from trust the bureaucrats, no more trust fauci. leaucrats,t the american peopler themselves. >> and this was used as an independent source when he himself called for the original letter. i thin f ca the orik that's an t point. senator , i want to ask yout po abouint.t this. if if i wanted to buy farmland and ranchlanfad in china, ifif i i wanted to buy land in china, near their military installations, do yo tu thinhein i or any other american wouldrn?

>> because i thought we were supposed to conserve. i couldn't reconcile it. now i can. so, you know, water policy can a go and all thesell different it flows in different directions. >> oh, i have ponds on water. >> so why are conservative bad e mommy here? with reaction, the host of the monica crowley podcast, monica crowley and fox news contributor and our good friend leo to tural. arnica, why are conservatives bad mommy? i asked a lot of questions.stio as a kid, i think my parents probably wanted me to shut up. i had a big mouth since i was pretty young, but i don't recall ever asking anything remotely that sounded like that question or ever gigglinevg at that question like that. to keep the >> yeah. you know, the vice president tends to tell tall tales like her boss tells tall l l tales. nobody k nobody knows whether or not this situation happened, but it does recalno wion l when the vie president has repeatedly in the past told the storatedly iy when she was a little kid her and she fell out of her stroller and she looked at her mother and said, i want freedom. remember that story? so she tells these stories, sean and leo, because she's trying to ingratiate herself with the audience and that very insecure, nervous. laughter that's trying e a sympatheticying response from the audience because she is incredibl to athe of her depth.'s got she's got imposter syndrome and it shows all day long. you know what? if she were an insecureinse oddball,cure as vice president , nobody would but doing a good job, nobody would care about these stories. but she's an insecure oddballre who's terrible at her job and she is imperiling the people of the united states in our national securitya by being so inepndt and just so. out of her depth in this position. and that's what the american peoplee american are really madt we can laugh at these these videos of her all day long.peop bulet the american people are r really angry that we'realle in position of having a president who doesn't know what time idot is and vice president who's an insecure oddball. >> i have my doubts, leo 2.0, whether or not that question really happened. this what she described reallyed happened. why are conservatives bad? mommy, i don't know. i i just don't know why young kno childrenwh, whatever come up with a question like that. maybe they heard something in school. it's possible. , the real but the question the real point is there is a belief among the hard left that if you are a conservative, if you are a republican, you're a bad person, thatrson they really do question your motives. they question your integrity. as if we don't have a heart or a soul or a conscience. nt oh, you're absolutely right. s and she's appealinprg not to ams to to to the majority of americans. she's appealing to her base 20% the extreme left socialists,20 a the antick black lives matter, the progressive wing of the democratic party. that's allhe democc she's spea. she doesn't speak forrica the majority of america. and she talked about unification, just like joe biden. but her association with joe her ciation n, they have developed this that this pattern to lie everyto day about your upbringing,ce about their lifestyle, abouts, their experiences. it's so absolutely untrue.en and when you talk aboutat joe biden at the top of this segment, joe biden had anhave a affirmative obligation to go to ohio. he thirty days to late and he'll never go there because president trump trumped him there. >> pres and basically embarrassed his failure to get there. was he was going to be a unifier, ut remember his inauguration speech. but no, he hasio ? refused to go the there because ohio representsset the heartlans d of america, notb the 30 percent who still thinks he's doing a good job. if he gets permission from those who handled him for onrack obama, maybe he could turn air force one around on the weekend. weekend instead of going to dele i and go to ohio. i don't think he'll do that.t tl john , let me ask you both. o i only havnle ten seconds for each of yoeachu. i believe at some point,ob eaobably soon, the people ofably eastst palestine will be told the air, the water is safek. to breathe and drink. i don't believe them. i would want an outside entity to confirm. do you think that will happen, leo?? get no. i no, i think you're right. ey i don't think they'll ever learn the truth. learn the just like this whole show about the transparency. the government is not going to tell them the truth. trsoansparency i don't. think wil they'll get the truth from the government quickly. monica, yeah, just after 9/11, when the epa and the government told everybodye in new york an the environment that it was alll okay, water, air, clean, that was all a lie. >> t and i suspect the same thig is happening here. all right, leo, thank you. monica, thank you. moore hannity right after this for furch. you won't face me. i'm like zyrtec. allegra won't make me drowsy. and allegra starts working two times faster than claritin. so an allergy attack. here so an allergy attack. here take a legrand te before pr and for congestion relief,ogramd a letter d at your pharmacy. >> i'm jonathan lawson. life ihere to tell you about lifehrp insurance through the colonial pen program. s.if you're age 50 to eighty five and looking to buy life insurance on a fixedare pr budget, remember the three p's?c >> what are the three p's?
