this. he and the secretary of defense. now, we ran hard for these positions to represent the people of our states. we are supposed to be making the law. not the penn and be the white house. that s one of the reasons i have a hold on these. send it over to congress and let s pass this. you say they re violating the law. there is an opinion from the justice department that says it doesn t violate the law. they re not paying for abortions. they re paying for the travel to get there. i m quoting from the policy now. it says the noncovered reproductive health care is at the service member s expense. so that would seem to say they re not violating the law which is your whole premise for blocking all the nominations. first of all, i wouldn t trust this department of justice as far as i can throw them. but they look at it different. i look at it as a law. a law is legislated through
he clearly doesn t merit the trust that would be required to let him out on bail. i wouldn t trust his family as well. and a foreign agent, many, many actors would be willing to pay a lot and go through a lot of hoops to get him out of the country or help him to get out of the country. so he s a flight risk and he s not reliable. all right. important points indeed. guys, thank you very, very much. we re getting some brecking news into the situation room right now. want to go straight to our senior crime and justice correspondent kaitlan polantz. she s getting new information. what are you learning, kaitlyn? well, wolf, first on cnn, sources are telling me today that former vice president mike pence testified to the january 6th federal criminal grand jury looking at donald trump and other possible crimes around the 2020 election. he was here at this courthouse all day today. we had a whole team trying to do reporting on this today. and our team did notice unusual security happenin
universities to take away our research and defense industry. they have 80 million balloons in our houses with tiktok. they brought fentanyl through the southern border and have dna i wouldn t trust anything the chinese are doing. todd: in this piece making meeting do you expect vladimir putin to walk away with a whole lot more chinese weapons? weapons? absolutely. it allows them to really put their stake into ukraine. look for us, as we decrease our number of ships by two a. the talks between xi and speedy putin, what do you think they mean by new approaches? they are just playing out their strategy. the ultimate goal is to destroy the united states peer of the chinese have 100 year marathon to replace the united states as
