FBC The Evening Edit July 12, 2024

Moving federal forces into u. S. Cities not to help stop the killing of minorities, not to stop the rioting and the looting and the destruction, but as a preview, a warmup act for trump to use federal forces to, quote, try and steal the election are. Plus, voices for trump advisory e board member Ken Blackwell joins us tonight on that. Plus this story, former Trump Deputy National security adviser kt mcfarland, she is fired up and ready to go on newlydeclassified government documents that reveal the fbi did use a routine briefing as cover to secretly spy on President Trump his former National Security adviser, general Michael Flynn. So was this part of the insurance policy that fbi officials had texted about to block trump from winning . We debate it. Also coming up tonight, republican strategist Ford Oconnell on President Trump now slamming joe biden for letting the far left hijack the Democrat Party and its platform. That platform used to be about unity, about brotherhood. Well show you how critics warn that the democrats platform has become so divisive, so angry and so toxic that it is not the party it was just a decade ago. Yes, President Trump has been accused of being divisive, but this is off the hook. And the hill media reporter joe concha on a story we have been working on for three years, fbi officials admitting behind the scenes they had no case against trumprussia collusion or against Michael Flynn, but james comey leaked to the media to get the twoyear Mueller Probe launched that did not find any collusion, and there was no evidence against Michael Flynn. So we ask simply why . Since fbi officials and others admitted behind the scenes they didnt have evidence of anything . That story tonight. Im elizabeth macdonald. The evening edit starts right now. Elizabeth welcome to the show. Youre watching the fox business network. Lets get right to Edward Lawrence in washington with the latest headlines there. Edward . Reporter yeah, liz. Late this afternoon the president signing four executive orders designed to get drug price down. The first one would pass along the rebates that federal Community Health centers get for influence and [inaudible] allowing states to legally import canadian prescription drugs. The third, to preprevent middlemen from keeping rebates on medicine and forcing them to pass through the discount to consumers. Finally, medicare is directed to buy medicine at the same price as foreign countries. Now, he gave on that last one Drug Companies til august 25th to come up with a solution, they could possibly delay that one. No longer will the u. S. Support the rest of the world by paying more for prescription medicine. Listen. We pay 80 more than nations like germany, canada and others for some of the most expensive me is sins, identical in all reasons. This means that americans are funding the enormous cost of Drug Research and development for the entire planet. Reporter and now that the ink is on the paper, there is some background, regulatory things that have of to start. That process takes time. The white house also watching the surge in coronavirus cases and how thats going to affect schools reopening. Now, in the next cares package the president wants to put 105 billion for schools to reopen safely. If they dont reopen, he wants that money to go to parents to pay for private or Charter Schools that will be open. So the president has never wanted to take money away e from schools, take money away from education. It is about keeping it with the child. The purpose of School Funding is to educate a child. The child, if a school is closed, loses the opportunity to receive education and needed social services. Reporter and before we get there, dr. Deborah birx says 11 u. S. Cities need to take aggressive steps to get under control the coronavirus. Dr. Anthony fauci saying late today he does not think we need another shutdown, but some states that are in phase two of reopening, for example, may want to go back to phase one of reopening just to get a handle on the surge in cases. Again, thats a casebycase basis, he says. Liz . Elizabeth okay. Edward, thank you so much. Its great to see you. Okay, this story, federal officials now moving into seattle, preparing for a weekend of potential riots there. Portland, oregon, you should siege, now bracing under siege, now bracing for another night of riots after more than 2,000 showed up last night. Wide spread e destruction from two months of rioting. At least 60 now arrested, one man charged with hutting an officer with a sledgehammer,res charged with pointing lasers at Police Officers eyes in order to blind them. Some now with permanent vision damage. Okay, lets go through it. Joe biden and democrats now attack President Trump claiming hes trying to stop, quote, peaceful protests when rioters have hit officers with baseball bats, bricks, glass bottles, concrete, rocks, feces, pig feet, frozen water bottles, fireworks, slingshots filled with batteries, boards with nails driven into them and smoke bombs thrown into flames after rioters set fire to fillings and tried to buildings and tried to barricade officers inside. But heres the latest. Rioters are now going after officers and their families in their homes. Lets welcome retired i. C. E. Acting director. Its great to have you back on, sir. They put out on the internet the personal home addresses and phone numbers of 38 Police Officers in portland, also officers in kentucky, washington, d. C. , georgia, new york, massachusetts, and theyre telling extremists to go to these homes. That could put their families at risk. Whats your reaction . Yeah, this is terrible. This shouldnt happen in modernday america. The people who protect the cities, the srt people that are in portland for cbp, theyre patriots. They took an oath to protect this country, and you can see what happens when a modern Police Department like portland walks away from their responsibility to protect the citizens and that courthouse x. So cbp has been asked to go back in and help the federal protective service to line this thing out and protect that courthouse. Just imagine if they werent there, it would be in rubble right now x. Families of Law Enforcement officers already make enough sacrifice with the dangers that their spouses engage in at work, and now theyre make their lives difficult by putting information about their homes and their children on the internet. Just should not be. Elizabeth okay. Lets watch mark morgan. Hes the acting commissioner of customs and border protection. He was with us last night. Lets take a listen. Ive authorized them to remove their names because the same criminals who are trying to injure them, theyre actually trying to get people to go to their homes. Thats disgusting. While these agents are deployed portland, their families back home, theyre not with them, theyre actually being dossed and having encouraging people to go to their homes. Thats outrageous. We should all be united. That is wrong. Elizabeth okay. So the officers names are covered up for a reason. Because theyre getting exposed on the internet. Their families are put at risk. I mean, instead of complaining, hey, theres no identifying marks for them, theyre just showing badge numbers, but this is about protecting them, right . Yeah. They shouldnt have to face the risks with their families being targeted at home. So covering up their identity, letting each other know who it is but not letting the public see it in this time, it just proves the narrative this isnt a peaceful protest. These people want to destroy things, and theyre making a good effort. And if cbp wasnt there, itd be much worse than it is. Elizabeth you know, its unfortunate that politics has gotten into this, but the democrats are now being accused of silence over and a lack of outrage over that and the hundreds of rioters who targeted the home of chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot last night saying, you know, resign, cops should be defunded. The mayor of oakland, california, her home was targeted with vandalism and gras fit few, and now the doj Inspector General is launching an investigation into federal agents and the use of force in portland . Yeah. If these cities would take control of the crime problems that they have, if this demonstration was put down earlier, if the Portland Police engaged like they should in a modern city, we wouldnt have these kinds of problems. Its just that people believe they can get away with stuff like this. Theyre going to continue to do it. Elizabeth okay. Rioters who are arrested also in beverly hills, california, last night, rioters in seattle last night again. They broke windows, they looted, they damaged businesses. Your take on how that violence are came after a federal judge ruled that he will stop police from using tear gas to stop mob violence, it came just days after a dozen cops were injured in seattle with mortarstyle fire tossed at them at close range. Show the image, gang talking to my gang in the booth there was also a man who went on a spree, mayhem in portland. He had a hand saw and attacked women in a laundromat, and protesters reportedly intervene ised. Your take on that. Now is not the time to take capabilities or tools that the police have to protect themselves and to protect their communities. So defunding and removing the tools that they need to control a situation is a terrible idea, and the consequences are going to be long lasting in places when these cities are destroyed and businesses cant open because these rioters are taking control of the streets. Elizabeth you know, and critics say tone down the rhetoric. The words that are being used, critics say, are inflammatory and igniting and basically making things worse. The mayor of portland uses a security detail. Hes for defunding police. He went to the riots to thank the protesters, he was booed, rioters demanded he resigned. Now he claims federal forces are going to kill people. Lets watch him. Watch this. Ultimately what im worried about and what others in my community are worried about that nonviolent americans are going to be killed for doing nothing other than standing up for American Democratic principles. This is a serious issue. Elizabeth is that a serious threat, sir . All of the Law Enforcement that are serving there and around the country, theyre there to protect people. Its not dangerous to protect the courthouse. And you can see by the destruction and the reports that you had on earlier about officers being blinded by lasers, being hit by hammers and rocks, thats not a peaceful demonstration. Thats a riot. And he ought to know better, hes an elected official elizabeth but hes saying, hes saying federal forces are being sent in, theyre going to kill people. Your reaction to that. Thats not why theyre there. Theyre there to protect that building, and thats what their responsibility is. Fds is charged with doing that mission, and cbp is helping them. When i was commissioner, we deployed in san diego for similar circumstance. Someones got to protect that space because, obviously, the Police Department didnt do it. Just like in 2018 when they took over the i. C. E. Headquarters in downtown portland, the Police Department walked away from it x it was nine weeks later before they got that Building Back under or control after millions and millions worth of damage. This shouldnt happen in a modern american city. Elizabeth all right. Were showing the assault again in portland, oregon, of the man with the hand saw. Lets hope it does not come to that. Ronald, thank you so much the use of force there. Good to see you,er. Next up, Republican House minority leader Kevin Mccarthy. He is now warning House Democrats start taking marching orders from House Speaker pelosi to block a bill that would publish chinese professionals who covered up the pandemic.

Elizabeth Republican House minority leader Kevin Mccarthy now criticizing House Democrats. Hes saying stop taking marching orders from speaker pelosi. Dont block a bill that would sanction officials who covered up the coronavirus pandemic. Watch the House Minority leader here. Chinas deception has directly led e to americans e deaths. China covered up the truth about the virus. China hoarded personal protective equipment and tried to exfort other countries or extort other cups. Now chinas trying to hack our vaccines which will harm our ability to serve the world if solve this problem. Why does the speaker promote their propaganda by trying to blame the president of the United States for the Chinese Communist party lies . Even calling the virus in the name of our president. My final question would be, what does the Chinese Communist party have on the democrats . Why cant they hold them accountable . Elizabeth okay. All of that is going on as the head of the chinese consulate in houston now will not commit to closing the office today as the Trump Administration ordered. Its considered a front for china spying on the u. S. This as china is in a tit for tat, ordering the u. S. Consulate in southwestern china to shut down. Welcome back fox news military analyst, retired army colonel david hunt. Colonel, your take on congressman Kevin Mccarthy there. Yeah. Heres my issue with that and the china did all this. What do you want to do . Weve got the president and the secretary of state saying china did this, they created the virus, they clearly lied about it, but they created it and sent it. Therefore, if thats true, china [audio difficulty] millions of lives being affected and hundreds of thousands of lives dead. And i so what do you want to do about this . I know that china lied. I know that they misrepresented. Well, i dont think we have yet proven that this was chinesedevelopedded and weaponized. Because if thats true, thats an act of war. Elizabeth okay, i hear what youre saying. The house bill from republicans would punish the chinese officials who covered it up. I mean, thats what the secretary of state, mike pompeo is blaming china for that, for the coverup, the white house has been saying that, independent analysts have been saying that. I mean, 4 million in the u. S. Now infected, 144,000 now dead . Yes, more than 1. 2 million have recovered, but theres also this, colonel. Dr. Anthony fauci said things will return to normal in 2021. Because of vaccines, but chi
