wow. kris kobach, former secretary of state in kansas, he was in the running for homeland security secretary and again, recently they listed in his vetting form as a vulnerability quote, white supremacy. unbelievable. it cited accusations from past political opponents that he had ties to white supremacist groups. and then you had, you know, laura ingraham, fox host, she was in serious contention for white house press secretary. direct quote from one of her red flags, she said people should wear diapers instead of sharing bathrooms with transgendered people. okay. that s shocking to say the least. what does this say about the trump administration s vetting process? so we did a lot of behind the scenes reporting on this. how it all came together. it was slap dash. and a lot of these problems could have been avoided but what happened was chris christie ran
flags, ingraham said people should wear diapers instead of sharing bathrooms with transgender people. one heading in the document about kris kobach. he was in serious consideration for homeland security secretary. it listed, quote, white supremacy as one of his vulnerabilities. it cited accusations from past political opponents that he had ties to white supremacist groups. and there was also some of the contenders were as we said strikingly swampy, even by the rnc vetters standards. sunny purdue, trump s pick for agriculture secretary noted that he was the owner of houston fertilizer and grain, a company that s received contracts from the department of agriculture. the list goes on but, you know, it was really striking. what was also striking is just how many of these people that took top jobs that at the very top of their documents they had said the harshest things about donald trump a character and they still picked them for top
they had a striking assortment of what they called red flags for him. most of it was the harsh statements he made about donald trump s personal character. they point out he said trump is not a very good person. another one worth noting, very striking ones we saw, these people didn t etched up getting jobs. so laura ingraham, the fox host was seriously considered for white house press secretary. one of her red flags was, i m reading a direct quote, ingram said people should wear diapers instead of sharing bathrooms with transgender people. and kris kobach, who we all heard of in the running for homeland security secretary, listed white supremacy as one of his political vulnerabilities. cited vast relations from political opponents he tied to white supremacist groups. what is the response you re getting, jonathan, from the white house? are they telling what do they
that s what matters to her and her employers. i think we can t be attacking kids. laura ingraham has a long history of attacking people unjustified. she recently attacked lebron james and said he should shut up and shut up and dribble. she discussed mexican immigrants saying they have come here to murder and rain our people. she called the naacp a, quote, push organization for racist sentiments. she compared the legalization of same-sex marriage to state-sanctioned incest and polygamy. suggesting people should wear diapers instead of sharing bathrooms with transgendered people. i ve known laura for that s my question. we worked with her here many, many years ago. she and i were part of the back in the day in the late 90s. i don t remember her like this. she was always a fairly strict conservative. we would have conversations that were pretty reasonable. you know, the ann coulterization
right, this was amazing to me. i know we have to go to break, when he says his dad got out of prison, he hadn t seen his dad in years. he pulls up he was sitting on the street and his dad pulls up and says hey, son, where s the house? he had no idea where he lived. right down the block. thanks, that was my dad. he told his friends. he was in jail. all right. coming up on the show gave him the address. imagine living that life? i can t. no way. the congressional budget office says that health care will save us billions but a former director says the numbers are all wrong. uh-oh. he s up next with us. and then this story is nuts no more single sex bathrooms for students? sharing bathrooms as young boys. wait until you hear why.
