The Ingraham Angle from washington tonight. Ju we begin with a fox news alert. Defense secretary lloyd austin announced each branch of the u. S. Military will schedule a 6n day standdown to allow each service to have needed discussions on extremism in the ranks. We are going to talk about this insane force of action with ron desantis and Newt Gingrich in moments. But first, no ransom for Hostage Takers. Thats the focus for tonights angle. This week, im reminded why a Record Number of americans turned out to vote for donald trump in november. Tens and thousands of people would show up at his rallies and wait for f hours in the extreme heat and bitter cold, stuck with him during sham impeachments in the mueller a investigations . They did all of this because to them he was the last thing standing between their families and the left wing mob. Before trump, conservatives have been used to milquetoast Establishment Republicans whose first instinct is to buckle when criticized in the New York Times or washington post. s he wasnt always perfect, but donald trump refused to scrape and bow to the nastiest characters inside the beltway. Propose the word immunity, theit prospect of working together. It is all for show. The embarrassing episode involving mitt romney and the gang of moderates four covid relief. Biden took their 600 billion offer and essentially responded with his classic line from godfather ii. You can have my answer now if you like. My offer is this. Nothing. Laura so much for unity and compromise 1. 9 trillion or 600 billion . Nothing, staying with en1. 9 billion. Staying on offense is the only choice for conservatives today. Staying back on your heels, responding defensively to every criticism plays into your stopponents hands. Notice the democrats never make this mistake. Their members can say the most rotten, hateful, incendiary things about america, Law Enforcement, even other members. Without so much as getting a g Telephone Call from nancy pelosi or chuck schumer. With ilhan omars old antisemitic comments were revealed or when she mocked americans for fearing al qaeda and 9 11, where there any repercussions . Of course not because democrats always stick together no matter what. And it gets even better. With biden in the white house, liberal ideologues have become so emboldenedom that they arent content to manage the affairs of their own party, they are now determined to control the makeup well. Republican party as case in point, the most recent washington fixation with freshman congresswoman Marjorie Taylor greene. What i heard, of all the crazy things that greene has said, the queue and on stuff, the park lane School Shooting false black conspiracy theories, its the endorsement of political violence. Laura since january 6th, democrats have Felt Empowered to pick off republican adversaries on the ground on the grounds that they arent more lawyerly fit for Committee Positions or nsin some cases serve out their term. Lets bring up a vote to expel ted cruz and josh hawley from the senate. Do you think they should be out . We should be bringing justice for the members of congress and members of the senate to help support this. Do you think they should be out . T absolutely. Zero chance they resign. Republicann Leadership Swattd away the comments of politicalwo gnats like that. But with congresswoman greene, Agonized Of Whether to boot her, get her up, get her out. At times they seem like they were dancing to the democrats tune. Settingsi aside the wacky and outlandish things that ms. Green isd said in the past, we have to ask this question. Pa what with the democrats do if we demanded that maxine dry them out waters and rashida Impeach The Mfer tlaib. And the democrats have absolutely zero standings to secondguess Republican Caucus positions, even failing to police their own nuts. Miss greene should be answering to her constituents and her alone. Its clear that Kevin Mccarthy has told the democrats that republicans will not punish one of their own in a futile attempt to try to appease or negotiate with the democrat Hostage Takers here. They are not going to do it. If the democrats try to punish miss green, theyll simply underscore their own fanaticism. Let the People Choose their own leaders if you still believe in democratic our presentation, that is. Republicans have to do with the fact that liz cheney, who holds a position, widely celebrated among the press corps. Calling for cheney to give up her Leadership Position failed in their effort tonight. But that effort wasnt due to democratic pressure but rather it was based on the principle that if you want to lead the Republican Party, not just be on any committee, but be in a position of leadership, you shouldnt help democrats pursue an unconstitutional vendetta. Its telling that pelosi and her pals in the press are protecting liz cheney and going all out to link miss Greene To Trump and push the impeachment trial conviction. Theres a spectrum of bad in the g. O. P. Its not just Marjorie Taylor greene. Marjorie Taylor Greene represents a significant portion of the Republican Base today. Is so tied into what they haveve ahead of them, and opportunity convict donald trump. These two things seem to linked in and they are linked by violins. Laura do you get it . Do you see know whats going on . Its not about Marjorie Taylor greene. They dont care about her. This was always about allowing political opponents to define conservatives back to the pretrump good old days. When we turned nothing would make the democrats happier and discourage republican turnout then replacing a populist g. O. P. With one led by the holdovers from the old bush cheney era. If democrats are successful at picking off one republican congressman, they are just going to move on to the next scalp. Theyve already got our next guest lauren bohr Lauren Boebert in theirsides. This is Nancy Pelosis press release today. She had and if i give mccarthy she cited john thune who said that the house has decided to make itself the party of q and. If you are concerned, pick up the phone and have a private Conversation Peer do not you will be left narrative. It only weakens your power and weakens whatever agenda you think you are advancing. Thats the angle. Colorado congresswoman Lauren Boebert. You were singled out by the head of the Democrat Congressional Campaign committee as being next. Your response tonight . Ive been on the list since the day i announced. Its like a game of whack a mole at this point. You knock one down and three more pop out. Im encouraged. Because i know that the d ccc is terrified of what this class is doing, the momentum that is still behind us in 74 million americans. I am proud to be a part of this, im honored to be the first woman to represent the people of colorados third district, the first mom who has been sent to washington, d. C. , to be their voice. So the its never going to stick, ill keep whacking down the moles. We cant keep sacrificing republicans to the dccc and the Democrat Party, theyll look at the next. I just want to make this clear to everybody watching now, we have to Translate Washington to the rest of the country every night paid with all due respect, its not about you, its not about congresswoman greene, is not any one of you. This is about trying to take out anyone ever connected to donald trump. Because they do not want to have to spend that much money again the beat someone like him in 2024. That means take out anybody connected with him. They say its a third of thehi Republican Party or the country who still supports his ideas . Its about the ideas, congresswoman. They want to brand as racist or whats a premises even though they were quite popular among various minority groups. This is a movement the democrats cannot seem to stop your they have spent millions of dollars trying to do that. They only expose their hypocrisy and show theyll never hold one another accountable. They are never going to stand up and be accountable for their own decisions. Really, the Democrat Party is a party of cancel culture. Thats a pillar of the Democrat Party. When you have Alexandra Collier cortez accusing senator cruz of nearly murdering her orsi comparison congressman chip roys actions to a abuser, someonene needs to hold them accountable and maybe its the freshmanan class. Laura the media love to trot out former congressman who dont have to answer to constituents anymore, like the never Trumper Charlie been and he thinks he has a way to save the g. O. P. D watch. The party needs to have make a clear break from trump and i would argue a clear break from the trumpism with all of its ugly populism, isolationism, protectionism. We have do counteract Adam Kinzinger direction much more socially tolerant, engaged on the international and domestic stage. On laura my god, my hair hurts. Is this what the party needs . I didnt come here to opposed to republicans. Thats not what i was sent to be a part of. My agenda is taking back the house in 2022 and resenting the people of colorado. But i do not see the Republican Party going away from this american first agenda. Laura, thats what motivated me to get to washington, d. C. I have four children. I know the conservative values are what leads to a free and prosperous life. Thi grew up in a democrat home dependent on democrat policies and those policies failed me. They led me to stand in line for government cheese. The American Dream is toil available, im in washington, d. C. , fighting to make sure that no one else has to do that. Laura they are afraid of you. You are optimistic, young, they want to scare you. Doesnt sound like they are doing a good job of t it. Of course, the left smears against members of congress. They wouldnt be so effective if not for big tech. Silicon valley is in a bunch of start ups anymore but massive monopolistic corporations in total lockstep with the democrats. With congress, a failure to reit them in, Florida Governor ron desantis one states laws to hold big tech accountable. Says that if a Tech Company Dte Platforms A florida candidate for elected office during an election, well, they will take a dailyin fine of 100,000 until e candidates access is restored. Governor desantis joins me now. Governor, do you see whats going on with these moves to censor and cancel and threaten members of the g. O. P. With every manner defamation, how is big tech and your fight for fairness related . Laura, if you go back ten years, big tech or some of Thesl Platforms were liberating and critically for conservatives because it gave us a way to get around the legacy Corporate Media which we distrusted for a longly time. Whats happened for the last 45 years is they have turned from liberating platforms to enforcers of the preferred narrative. They are colluding with some of those failed legacy outlets to try and enforce this prescribed narrative for that means you have a lot of conservatives that get let out on that. What we are trying to do in florida, a few things, we really believe in peoples privacies and the way they manipulate data is a problem. We want to prevent interference in elections, but we also want to have a broader collection against d platforming censorship for the average floridian so we provide them to be able to sue big tech under our unfair and deceptive fair trade practices. I think itll bring common sense to what clearly arely ultrapowerful oligarchies which i do not think has proven to be good for the country. Laura governor, your commissioner said that i believe where are party is today is more of a kneejerk reaction, this is something that needs to go on the federal side. We have waited for the feds to act. But they have done nothing. First of all, for floridact elections, this is something we do. We have our own election code, if you want to host a party for a candidate, that would be some sort of contribution. Why should big, Big Tech D Platm and it not count. Of course, you have runofthemill floridians, people who own small businesses, they are looking at what happened to parler, what happened to other people who have been canceled. Can big tech shut down their access, payment processing, email, all this stuff, i do not think this is something 510 years ago we thought would not be possible so i think these protections are warranted and i think most floridians will appreciate half of them. Laura long overdue. I need to get to the breaking news tonight that bidens defense secretary lloyd austin has ordered a military wide pause today in order to address the kind of extremism within the ranks thrust into the public view on january 6th. I think you have about give or take a few 17 or so military installations in your state . This sounds like a coming purge of traditionalist pluralists in the military. How offensive is this . I think its offensive to suggest our activeduty sailors, marines, soldiers who are stationed in florida are complicit in any of that. These are people that are patriots, they wear the uniform proudly. When our National Guard was asked to go up to d. C. , they wanted to look at some of their beliefs and we wouldnt let them do that. I think its inappropriate. Waits to see what this means but i can tell you we have a lot of great folks on active duty and to view them with suspicion without evidence is not something that i would support. Laura i have to say, your state which i spend a lot of time in, they dont manage a virus well compared to some of the other states that were locked on for way too long, their economy is way better off. People should understand this about florida. Unemployment rate of 6. 1 compared to 8. 2 in new york, 9 in california. Yet the pressure on you, governor, to stay closed, to keep restaurants closed, all sorts of other mandates, was significant. You got an enormous amount of grief. Why did you stick to your guns . Look, the job of a leader is to take on the grief in order to save peoples jobs, to get people back in schools, to ultimately save a lot of lives. One, the virus response is more effective when its targeted at a vulnerable population which we did do aggressively, but i also think we save the livelihoods of so many people. Y you have less suicide deaths, less drug abuse deaths, Lessea Despair in florida because we were open and a lot of the lockdowners lost sight of that. We are the less per capita for us to be 26 mortality. As you said, our Unemployment Rate is much less than the national average. We have kids in school. Ve in december we had 330 million more in revenue than what was projected because people are coming here and they understand that florida is open and a place they can pursue their dreams. Laura you are now being called one of the free states in the United States. South dakota, florida, texas, a few others. A lot of people wanting to move to the free states. Governor, thank you so much. Great to see you tonight. In moments, we expose the lefts newfound yet hollow appreciation for Law Enforcement. Plus new great and rich response to the lakes idea to turn our National Security apparatus against americans. Stayay there. Hey, i just got a text from my sister. You remember rick, her neighbor .
