Thats the focus of tonights angle. The obscene move by democrats to militarize washington, d. C. Compels me to think ahead about how to best beat these race obsessed pirates Going Forward. Its time to end the lockdown and reopen washington, d. C. For the American People. O stop the spying on our own citizens. Stop using racial smears as weaponsoc against political opponents and trust the people and return to them their god given freedom. For the past year President Trump and the republicans have had two priorities. Number 1, reopen the country as soon as possible and number 2, provide temporary help to those who needed it. T. Operation warp speed was a successful part of that plan. The Democrats Used covid to hurt the Trump Administration. Speaker pelosi holding up relief for months before the election. It was a disgusting example. Second democrats embraced lockdowns that harm poor and working class americans and small businesses. We at the angle opposed this from day 1, going way back to last spring. Why are states with far less severe outbreaks run by democratic governors still under lockdowns measures. Lockdowns dont work. Look at europe if you think they work. A new International Study out today proves us right. Third, democrats repeatedly moved the goal post in terms of how long they thought it would take us to get back to normal or whether we would go back to normal ever. We could not do much about these facts during 2020. We warned democratic governors they were doing severe harm to local economies. D we urged democrats in congress to work with the president on relief bills. Now President Biden will be going to the hill to respond to the virus. Protective equipment and ventilation systems. We need 400 billion in funding of congress to make this happen. Its not just a smart fiscal investment. The return in jobs and Racial Equity will prevent longterm damage. Laura when will the country reopen. Biden will avoid that question. Biden is with the teacher unions who dont want lockdowns to end before they get a massive payout from the treasury. The republicans must demand he give them specific targets explaining when the country will reopen. How many vaccinations it will take before everyone can go back to school or go to a baseball game or a wedding or throw away all of the masks . They will send out dr. Fauci to talk about new virus mutations and scare us about how much worse things will we do if we dont do what biden and dr. Fauci says. I do not trust dr. Fauci. Nothing he tells us Going Forward can be trusted. I do not trust the democrats. They are comfortable with the lockdowns and zoom classes and government stimulus checks and want them toba continue. Now they have control of the federal government. All of its resources will be used to promote more masks, more lockdowns and other measures that will hurt the working class. No republican should vote for anymore relief until biden puts his cards on the table about reopening with exact details of how we will get our freedoms back. The gop should ask for details about how long the security measures will stay in place. We have to prevent serious harm happening in washington, d. C. Or anyone else, but we cant let washington become an armed camp. Thats the angle. Joining me now is kentucky senator rand paul. We moved from one type of lockdown to other. From covid to a military one. Are you worried about this constant moving the goal posts and slow creep . Absolutely. With regard to the pandemic lockdown the stanford study. Its in a medical journal. They studied ten Different Countries and the mandatory lockdowns did not better thanl suggestions. I dont think we have changed the trajectory of the virus at all with anything we are told to edo. They will never let up on this. I tell people use common sense. If you have the disease or been vaccinated. Throw yourur mask away and tell dr. Fauci to take a leap. They will never let up. There are doctors saying we need to wear the mask in the back seat and wear them forever. Thats ridiculous and defies the ayscience. When you have it and you have immunity or you had your second dose of the vaccine throw your mask away and tell these experts to take a flying leap. There is no Scientific Evidence that the lockdowns changed the trajectory of this virus. Laura what happened in washington, d. C. Since january 6th with the extremists who went into the capitol. Enormously destructive and lives were lost. Are you concerned about the size and scope of military deployment in the nations capitol in the aftermath of that . You know government. They underreact or overreact. There was too little security last week and now we will become a militarized zone. E. They are checking congressmen for sharp pencils. Most people who write about civil rights say in times of crisis you lose those quickly. Its difficult to get them back. Government neverom wants to give up on this. We have to resist this. We have to have security obviously. But i think living in a wartime state we have troops in the capitol. They are staying in the capitol. They are platooning in the capitol. I understand the last week we were not prepared and that wasas a real problem. Now there is a danger of overreacting. This virtual inauguration i will send my hologram or cardboard cut off. Laura this is what nancy pelosi said. Its necessary to have more security. We have to have more security than the intelligence might warrant in this case. Redundancy maybe necessary. Laura i dont know if she knows what she is saying. The redundancy is in her speech. We have to have adequate security. I want people and the president to be safe. I want the old president to be safe. One question with their crazy. I stuff is will they strip President Trump of his security . Can you imagine being an expresident and being stripped of your security . These people are bitter. I dont understand how they can move forward with this. I am not for everything that President Trump has done. What they are doing now is an overreaction. If they think they will have a positive feeling from the public going through a partisan impeachment again is wrong. Laura and Mitch Mcconnell left open the possibility there will be a senate trial when President Trump is already in florida . Well,l, they will destroy the Republican Party. If leadership is complicit with an impeachment. They will destroy the party. I opposed President Trump whenes he was wrong and for him when he was right. Impeachment is partisan. Its for the moral, i am so much better than you. These are the kind of people that will do this. I didnt agree with the fight thatas happened last week. I voted against overturning the election. Im but at the same time, the impeachment is a partisan notion. If republicans go alongi with i, it will destroy the party. A third of the republicans will leave the party. This is not about the electoral college. Its about the future of the college. If you ostracize President Trump from the Party Millions of his fans will i leave as well. Laura millions of voters will feel they have been impeached too. And from a lack of trust in the American People to a lack of trust in the people you work with. Y democrats are scared the republican colleagues and elected lawmakers will murder them. Membersan are not talking abt i am worried my colleagues will get me killed in an indirect sense. Their rhetoric might inspire someone. They are word that members either participated in the attack or they will become a danger themselves. S. Laura congressman jim jordan. If you are a republican you may beer a murderer yourself. They are ridiculous. Remember last summer, we have a democrat colleague said there should be more unrest in the streets while there was unrest in the streets. That language is scary and could increase violence. What they are saying now is ridiculous. There is no colleague republican or democrat who engaged in any behavior they are alleging. Laura the militarization of washington, d. C. Everyone wants you all safe and federal and state institutions and people in their homes. Is this response we are seeing in d. C. , iss it commensurate wih what you know with threats against the city . Well, i will tell you, its rough to see. You hoped nothing like this would be needed in our country. What happened last week was traditional and tragic and wrong as wrong can be. I hope this is not permanent. I hope we have safety and security but the presence is overwhelming. Lets hope we get back to normal quickly. Laura author peggy nunan wrote that cheneys remarks urged others to impeach. They were stupid and cowardly. I guess she is talking about you. As they said yes too impeachmen. 19 minutes into the Trump Administration the Washington Post said a campaign to impeach President Trump has begun. This impeachment one week before he is to leave office is political and didnt help our country unify. What troubled me is the fact that she made an announcement in the harshest terms where she would vote 36 hours before the debate. I was charged with managing our debate on the floor. For 2 hours i heard Democrats Use the words liz cheney had said. I disagree with her. I have no problem with that. The problem is the nature in which it was done. Laura wait, wait, wait. I am confused. Your problem is a procedural problem . I think you need people in leadership that reflect the flus of the Republican Voters . I agree. Laura nothing personal against liz cheney but didnt reflect the republican base. I agree with that. She doesnt reflect 96 of our conference with the vote and the manner she announced the vote she would take caused members to have concerns about her actions. When you have 96 of the conference who was opposed to the leadership of the conference, thats a big problem. I agree completely with that. Laura Kevin Mccarthy is saying he wont remove her. What do you say to him . I think there needs to be a secondth vote among conference members to determine whether she says. Thats where the conference is. They would like to have another vote. Nothing changed. Laura and the leadership battle is all about what comes next for the gop house. What about the base who got them elected . Joining me is tom bevin. Where does the gop base stand on donald trump and what does it mean for leadership . Well, i will give you one example. There was a story in cincinnati, they did a focus group. 40 trump supporters. They came to a theater and listened to 6 people at the rally on january 6th what they experienced there. He asked the 40 trump supporters, is your support increasing or the same or less . Not a single one of the 40 people supported the president less than before. 40 republican officials across the country all still stood with the president. There is a disconnect of how this is being portrayed. The Republican Party who support President Trump how they are interpreting what happened over the last couple of weeks. Laura President TrumpApproval Rating at 29 . But we know president bush was in the low 30s for much of that time. Right. His Approval Rating dropped in the last 10 days. 39. 7 which is as low as its been for President Trump since january of 2018. Hes taken a hit. Once people get out of office, typically their approval goes up. Laura we heard the shooting of jake blake was racially motivated police brutality. That was based on a total lie and we will expose the poisonous voices who pushed it. My Retirement Plan with voya keeps me moving forward. They guide me with achievable steps that give me confidence. This is my granddaughter. Shes cute like her grandpa. Voya doesnt just help me get to retirement. Theyre with me all the way through it. Voya. Be confident to and through retirement. Laura for month we were told that the jacob blake shooting, that sparked the deadly kenosha riots was a racist cop attacking an unarmed black man. It started with the family attorney. I challenge anybody to tell me that i am not speaking factsd the script and narrative is the same. Unarmed black person killed a unjustifiably. The police shoot first and figure out how to justify it later. Laura Law Enforcement challenged this early on saying blake had an open warrant out for arrest and was armed with a knife. E. The liberal politicians including the president and vicepresident elect jumped on this narrative and then flamed the flames. They had an election to win. What i saw on that video makes me sick. Once again a black man, jacob blake was shot by the police in broad daylight with the whole world watching. In america, these cases keep happening. G. We had too many back men in america who have been the subject of this kind of conduct. It has to stop. Laura well, following their cue from biden harris, the media spread this narrative. A disturbing story out of kenosha, wisconsin where police shot an unarmed black man in front of his children. You see this incident. A man who appeared unarmed. Unarmed. People sworn to protect their community shot an unarmed man in his back seven times. Laura this is disgraceful. The predictable kenosha riots caused more than 50million worth of damage. Businesses were ransacked. And in the end just like with Michael Brown and cases before that, we end up learning the narrative that fueled the unrest was a lie. Wa we see you when you walk ay from an officer after they try to grab you. I am rattled. I realized i had dropped by knife. E. I picked it up after i got off ofp him. Because they tased me and i fell on top of them. Laura where do the businesses of kenosha go for an apology and the every day americans who were told they and Law Enforcement are racists. Jacob blakes paralysis from this shooting is another tragedy but so to is to use this tragedy to inflame a nation for political gain. Do we expect politicians to sit back and say we got that wrong . Is that too much to ask . Well, we have not seen it yet. Even as early as the obama administration. President obama and the department of justice, several high ranking democrats and of course the Mainstream Media weighed in on many of these claims. There were fires. There was looting and all mannei of protests activities only to see that apparently the only end result is a big payout to Benjamin Crump and we find out a dead persone or shot person actually didnt merit the criminal charges or investigation against the officers that had been pursued because they were lawfully encountering the individual at the time. This story and narrative repeats itself. Laura in august usa todayed blake was not brandishing anything but admitted the video showed something was in blakes hand. Usa today updated the piece but wont change their fact check ruling because it was based on what was known at at the time. How anyone takes these people seriously. We hear those who incite violence should be prosecuted, okay what about the reporting where they ignored the facts . What about that inciting violence . We forget what happened in kenosha . Its an embarrassment that happened to a great city because of false reporting. The rioting, the mayhem is essential to demonstrating the truthfulness of the allegations made. It doesnt the case that the allegations are true and then there is mayhem. Its the case you need the mayhem. The real tragedy here, how many Business Owners and homeowners have lost their lives as a result of the fake narrative that was put forward . Its 50 million in kenosha but the Insurance Industry inhe america says its half a billion dollars from just what happened this summer as a result of black lives matter rioting even as we have yet to see these cases turn around into prosecutions or convictions. Laura when the fbi wants to find people with facial recognition, they can find them real quick. Absolutely. Laura they got those and i am glad they are arresting people and investigating this quickly, but we were calling for the same type of focus and aggressive prosecution to shut violent protests down taking advantage of blm. Absolutely. Remember now even before the pandemic, we were seeing an epidemic of assaults calling them polar bear attacks. Individuals without masks were attacking those elderly, white or male and we didnt see the fbi. Laura yes. A lot of people there was never justice found and delivered. It must be across the board without regard to political affiliation. Bidens inauguration plans are going to the dogs. Dont look now but your mask is slipping. Fridays follies with Raymond Arroyo next. You remember rick, her neighbor . Sure, hes the 76yearold guy who still runs marathons, right . Sadly, not anymore. What . You mean mmhm. Just like that.

In washington to elect joe bidens inauguration putting the inauguration, trump will hold a ceremony according to an anonymous source in considering an elaborate sendoff with military band, 21 gun salute. Senator prosecutors alleging there was an assassination at the capital riots asking u. S. Attorney Michael Sherman saying there was no direct evidence evidence of kill or capture in the accusations originally appeared in a court filing in the man photographed wearing a hat so far. More than 40 people facing federal charges for the capital right. Im ashley strohmier, back to the the ingraham angle. For all your headlines, log onto foxnews. Com. News. Com. Laura its laura its friday and time for you got, fridays follies. We turn to Fox News ContributorRaymond Arroyo. There were a lot of dacongressional masks in evidene this week but not by accident. Thats right. Some of this it probably comes from the 3 democratic members who complained they caught covid from their peers not wearing masks. Nancy pelosi ran through a bill to fine members up to 2,500 each time they failed to wear a mask in the house. Everyone complied sort of. Laura that last one. He pulled his mask down to cough in his hand and Touch Everything around him but doesnt get find. Thats right. He avoided the fine. Its a good day. She has to fine people who remove the mask or for each tug. Laura thats a new cspan drinking game. Imagine if you had a shot every time you touch your mask. A lot of drunk people around the united states. S. Tell us about bidens inauguration plans. The theme is america united. Will that include all of america . We will see. L with americans disinvited due to covid or security it will be odd. Biden will be sworn in befored a military audience. There are 20,000 troops occupying d. C. I know joe biden is interesting if making a common cause with foreign governments but expect him to take staging cues from kim jongun. The Biden Inauguration could lookok like this. Laura [laughing]. It will be weird not seeing people on the mall. Laura and the National Anthem what is going on there . The stars will be in attendance. No people but the stars and military. Jlo is performing and the National Anthem will be sung by bidens pal lady gaga. She is the voice for people who have been abused. It happened it her and shes shown enormous courage. Which National Anthem is gaga going to sing. There was a bill to make the black National Anthem our anthem . Laura cant we agree on anything . Everything is racialized. Theree is little that holds us together. I hope jlo, comes up with a hispanic National Anthem. Laura we have one National Anthem for all people. I agree. There will be a virtual parade and a virtual concert hosted by tom hanks. You cant attend in person so dont ask. Laura the celebration extend to the biden dog that we will be hearing a lot about over the next 4 years. The Delaware Humane Association is hosting a doginauguration for bidens rescue dog major. Lets hope it goes better than majors last national appearance. Biden jumping out of the shower and that little mishap. The pup dropped a ball in front of me. I grand the ball and he ran and i ran after him to grab his tail and i tripped on the rug he slid on. Laura chasing the dogs tail . I hope major doesnt throw a ball down the steps of the front of the capitol. Laura we talked about this with rand paul. Have you ever seen this military presence in d. C. Before an inauguration . Never. I covered the Trump Inauguration and the balls 4 years ago. There was nowhere near the military presence but there were antifa mobse harassing people outside of the balls. People forgot that. A largely abandoned d. C. Today in covid lockdown. This military show feels like overkill. I worry about the image it portrays to the rest of the world. Laura i worry that these gates and cement barriers and fences will never go away. Thats just going to be the new normal. Raymond, have a great weekend. Thank you very much. Still ahead, blue states governors may pay the price for their failings. An important update on the effort to recall governor gavin newsom with someone who led that effort. Its a doozy. Laura newsom, cuomo and whitmer touted as heroes by the liberal. But these blue states bozos are sucking wind big time. California governor gavin newsom faces the most serious challenge. The effort to recall him has more than 1. 1 million signatures up from 500,000 when this show first highlighted this a couple of months ago. One lawmaker leading that effort california state senator melendez joins me now. They need 1. 5 million by mid march to place this on the ballot. Will they get there . Absolutely. Without a doubt. I think gavin newsom knows too which is why he is talking about the recall and those opposed to him in press conferences. You are under their skin when they talk about you. Laura a lot of people in the tech world want to move to the countryside. They have a problem with people fleeing california because its not liveable. Its not affordable and locked down most of the time. Yes, what took them so long to realize that it was just unaffordable . Its like that all over the state especially in the bay area. The governor rolls out his new budget. Ali million and a half dollars r hybrid vehicle infrastructure. People are out of work and an Unemployment Department that cant get peoples benefits out to them and he is spending money on electric vehicle . He doesnt understand how the average person lives and what they need. Laura still has the welcome mat out for illegal immigrants. The mayor of long beach said this about that million plus joining this effort. Watch. Some of the same forces that are antiimmigrant and pushed back against people of color in our state that, have demonized low income folks are behind these recall efforts. Laura other democratic critics call this a coup. Your reaction . [laughing]. Nice try. A liberal in california called bs on this one. This is constitutionally allowed. You cant call it a coup because you dont like its happening. Come on. I hope they decide to try a different tact. That clearly doesnt work. There is no coup taking place. What is taking place is californians are saying you are not fit to lead and you will find someone who can. Laura i want you to hear something from the Fresno City Council manager about this recall. The same folks who participated in in unamerican recall on democracy are the folks behind the effort to recall governor newsom. Republicans are pushing their political agendas. That behavior wont be tolerateed in california. Laura what do you say to that . Treason . What are you talking about . We are unhappy with his leadership and how he is governing the state into the ground. Thats not treason. Thats patriotism. They can talk all day long how they think this is a coup and hostile take over. Its not. They know it. They are just trying to get people whipped up into a frenzy and act like victims. The only victims are the california Business Owners who were shut down for months and months. People who cant pay their bills. They are the advantages and not gavin newsom. Laura but you will have hybrid vehicle and healthcare for illegal immigrants. Thank you very much. Laura after a dark few weeks we end tonight on a lighter note. One of the best media corrections of all time is last bite. Stay there. Laura this weeks cnn documented a suspenseful account of a congressmans experience during the capitol riots. He said he and his chief of staff called the top aide to a congressman and asked if they could hunker down in his office. Except thats not what happened. The correction took all of the drama and flair from this piece. A previous version of this story misstated that he grabbed a crowbar before leaving his office. He grabbed a pro bar, an energy bar. [laughing]. There is a joke in there somewhere. We are happy the congressman is safe with his pro bar. Shannon bream and fox news night take it from here. Have agreat weekend. Shannon welcome to fox news night. I am Shannon Bream in jillian welcome to fox news that night, breaking tonight significant revelations in the final day of the Trump Administration, one on russia and the other on china. Members of the World Health Organization doubt they will get into to the question where did covid19 originate, a Government Lab or wet market
