of the dump from russia what happens now how do you undo this abuse of power? there s no question maria this was as i said a domestic disinformation campaign. it involved democrats like adam schiff on the, you know, house intelligence committee. it involved members of the media. it involved, you know, according to fbi whistle-blowers fbi agents, and, of course, involved twitter. and all of these working in concert putting their not just thumb on the scale but entire hand on the scale to mislead the american people in the weeks and months proceeding presidential election. and you know, to this point, you know, one of the questions i have is it was reported that when i was in congress twitter was shadow banning me as a conservative republican. did that continue when i became the dni putting out official statement? as you accurately said maria
laptop he would have known that fbi was to short order because of e-mails that were on there know that it was not russian disinformation. and so you know, i don t think that twitter just happened to, you know, find his resumés on monster.com, and i think what one of the things that needs to be determined is what was his relationship with twitter before he got to twitter and was he sharing information as the fbi general council to the benefit of one political party to the detriment of another that then continued when he got to twitter? maria: yeah. well, you took his deposition, right? i mean, you took his deposition while in congress, and you know you say that the dni was not suppressing information but the rest of the a rat tugs apparatus and doj meeting with social media to say this is likely part
mornings with maria on fox business, that, in fact, hunter biden laptop was not russian disinformation. this was only a day or so after the 51 spies that lied said that the hunter biden laptop was disinformation. ongt october 18th, 19th you and i spoke you came on mornings with maria and you said this, watch it is adam schiff chairman of the house intelligence committee who as you pointed out on friday said that intelligence community believes that hunter biden s laptop ene-mails are part of some russian disinformation campaign let me be clear the intelligence mungt doesn t believe that. because there s no intelligence that supports that and we have shared no intelligence with chairman schiff or any other member of congress that hunter biden laptop is part of some russian disinformation campaign. it simply is not true. maria: and boom, you told the truth right after that bill
your take on the road ahead. what dowpght to see to ensure that america s freedom and liberties stay in place? i ve said i m open to hearings on this there s two competing values on one hand we don t want censorship. we don t want to have people censored or boxed out shadow boxed removed from twitter because of their view point. on the other hand we do want respect we don t want accounts filled with about anti-semitism or spewing racism or hate on accounts and i think congress should have a thoughtful conversation about how we uphold both of those values. hearings would be good talking about how this took place to ensure it doesn t happen again. do you believe this can get better? can we take the out of federal agencies as well as the media? i do maria because i think if we want any hope of coming together as a country first
the hunt for this guy and we finally got him and enormous credit to do something like that and it s got to be a huge relief also for the families. suffering they ve gone through all of these years, and not having anybody truly held accountable for this horrific act that was committed against their family members and loved ones finally we have an answer for that despicable act. maria: what about overall readiness in our military we heard from marsha blackburn as the congress right now is working on the ndaa national defense act how would earmarked for the defense department and our military? well first of all we have to give credit to the house. bipartisan support in the house did something pretty unusual. and that is increased the president s budget by 45 billion dollars. and, obviously, the majority in the house of the democrats that wouldn t get done without their support. so credit to the democrats and
