Gras in new orleans. Total disgrace. Im celebrating with the coffee mug. Sean if you go to mardi gras laura i have. Sean not a good place to go. A lot of trouble there. If you go, dont drink a hurricane. Humble advice. Laura did you here what i said . There are no bars open. No parties. Sean when they open. Laura dr. Fauci says it will be clear in 2025. Well have 2025, a big party. You are invited. Okay . That is what we are doing. Sean ill throw beads from the balcony. Laura great show tonight. I enjoyed mark levin. Fantastic. Im laura ingraham. This is the ingraham angle. Day two of the trump postpresidency Impeachment Trial. Wrapped up a short while ago. In moments you will hear from trumps lawyer about how they will mount a defense. Former speaker will weigh in. And we also have more on the great china virus coverup. Biden, flunks school again. Mark cuban steps on a rake over the national anthem. We reveal it all in seen and unseen. First how Impeachment Managers were not pursuing strong legal arguments today as pumping up the emotion. Lets remember. The democrats one argument of impeachment claims that the trumps speech incited a storm to go to the capitol. But despite the hours of disturbing video they never revealed on trumps intent. They didnt touch on it. Further they chose not to focus on the words, on that day. But rather before that. How could he know it would be the greatest rigged election in history six months before it happen . You saw President Trump primed for months his supporters that if the election was lost only because it was rigged. In the weeks prior to, during and after the election, he used the same words over and over and over again. Laura you heard right. Trump is responsible for inciting a riot on words january 6 based on before the election even took place. Now it gets better as part of the proof they played deceptively edited clip. You commit to make sure there is a get rid of the ballots and youll have a very peaceful, there wont be a transfer, frankly. It would be continuation. Senators the president of the United States said, there wont be a transition of power. He told his supporters the only way he could lose the election if it was stolen. Laura here is the uncut exchange. Will you commit to making sure there is a peaceful transfer of power after the election. President trump we have to see what happens. You know that. I have been complaining strongly about the ballots and the ballots are a disaster. I understand that but people are rioting. Do you commit to making sure that there is a peaceful transfer of power . President trump get rid of the ballots and you will have a peaceful there wont be a transfer, frankly. There will be a continuation. Laura if this is such a compelling piece of tape why didnt congressman castro show the entire clip . Joining us is the Trump Defense attorney david schoen. The democrats want to use as much video as they can. Its awful. It looks awful. Your team stipulated to the fact that it was awful. No one condoning on anything that happened on that day. Are you prepared to offer similar, compelling and emotional Video Showing that the democrats, themselves, that this is the standard could be incited all sort of the riotous behavior . Well, that you have to stand by and watch. Its a pretty good bet. I would say that its not only they wanted plenty of video time today but it seems like they want screen time for themselves. They are playing to the camera, to the public all the time. I offer to stipulate in the opening address that i made to the, that the riot happened. It was horrific and so on. I said you talk about unity and healing. Showing that tape over and over again same slides and so on, manipulated by them does nothing for the healing. Its the opposite. Its continuing to open wounds for the american public. Something that President Trump condemned in no Uncertain Terms the terrible violence that went on. There is no issue about that. They are hoping to drum up elections and get the last shot in at President Trump. Laura you say tonight that you will show because the videotape is out there what the Impeachment Managers themselves said about the worth of previous election, namely 2016, or other words similar to that. That could be simply described as inciting unrest. You are well aware of what is out there. I dont commit to any public strategy we will use. I dont think its wise. But you will be impressed with the president s case. I say that, without wanting to have to do that. We shouldnt be here. This is illegitimate, unconstitutional Impeachment Process. Completely lacking in any laura i know but you lost that point. I understand that. But you lost that point. We get it. I mean i understand that argument. Im a lawyer. You lost that point so now its going back to incitement. Ill ask again. There are people that dont follow the law. They dont follow the law. They dont know the law or the law of impeachment so they see all the video. Then they see all the trump tweets. They see the fact he didnt immediately come out and condemn it and tell them to go home. They say itser toable. He did incitement. You have to show the other side morning noon and night for most of the trumps presidency. It is a hint. Giving you a hint here. That is absolutely relevant. You are well aware of what is out there. Laura a hint. This is what impeachment manager ted lu said today. How do you get to point where the rioters desecrated, defiled and dishonored your Senate Chamber . I will show you how we got here. President donald trump ran out of nonviolent options to maintain power. Laura david, would he be thrown out of courtroom in a regular proceeding saying something so outlandish . Absolutely. They would be thrown out of a courtroom for showing this video. None of this stuff is admissible in any court of law. That is part of the due process issue. I dont know if you saw today mike lee stood up and objected that they falsely attributed to him statements he never made. He made an objection and the place blew up in a hullabaloo. And raskin said they would withdraw it now and check the sources. The washington post, he might have said. If you look at the clips they show some sources are reportedly, and others are sources said. Hearsay, hearsay, hearsay. He was outraged because they made an argument and attributed comments to him that he said a call made to him without consulting him about what was said in the call. Imagine that . Disrespect to a senator. Laura schumer blew it off like it doesnt affect the case. It was compelling. David, i want to ask i want to make sure you know how important that was. Laura fair point. I want to ask one more question. Given what is at stake here for the constitutional precedent and the fact they want to cancel Trump Opportunity to run again if he wants to, have you consulted the president s previous impeachment team, jay sekulow and that crowd, given they were successful . Not saying you wont be successful, you probably will be. But you have collaborated with that team . I have spoken to them. Yes. Laura fantastic. We cant wait. Thank you for joining us tonight. Democrats expanded definition of incitement raises new legal questions. One, will the democrats be responsible for what they inspired when they called trumps election fraudulent. [chanting] we reject the president elect. Laura that is the same i was referencing. You know also that this continued right through his inauguration. [chanting] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] you are going to rot in hell. You will rot in hell, you nazi. Laura how many Impeachment Managers were speaking out against any of that . Or were some of them even inciting it . Will democrats be punished for spending years undermining our democracy . Trump didnt win the election in 2016. We will never know whether the russian intervention was determinative in a close election. A cloud of Illegitimacy Hanging over the white house. We won the election. It was stolen. Laura remember, those are words inciting according to the left. That is way the standard will be applied. Are we sure that biden would have accepted the election had he lost . You know, he was getting advice like this. Biden should not concede under any circumstances because i think this will drag out and eventually i do believe he will win if we dont give an inch and we are as focused and relentless as the other side is. Laura under any circumstances. Relentless . That sounds like incitement to me. Former speaker of the house newt gingrich, also a fox news contributor. Democrats accuse trump of doing what they spent the last four years doing. Trump was nazi, trump was misogynist and racist. Trump worked with the russians. Denying democracy and always denying his legitimacy. Of course. Look, donald trump is a mortal threat to the entire world of the left. He is such a deep threat anything they do to stop him is by definition illegitimate. Long before he was elected there were arguments about impeaching him. The day of his election there was an about impeaching him. Day after there was a huge crowd of the left wingers in front of the capitol and madonna saying she dreamed of the white house being destroyed with the trump family in it. This has been going on for five years now and this is the same thing. The fact you showed swalwell a congressman with a multiyear relationship with a Chinese Communist spy and who is serving on the house intelligence committee, and he is part of this Impeachment Process . This whole thing is a tragic, pathetic joke, which undermines the United States. This is not a trial. This is a Mock Trial Where Party Of Hollywood made so many films to make us so upset we have to have someone to be upset with and they say trump is the right person. You could make a better case that pelosi and schumer and others should be on trial. I hope they will do that when they put on their case. Go back in time when Congressman Raskin leading the impeachment effort, when he said what he said in january of 2017. What purpose . I have an objection. 10 of the 29 electoral votes cast by florida were cast by those not lawfully certified. Claiming that trumps refusal to accept was incitement . Were they accepting the legitimacy of the Trump Electors . No. Of course not. Hillary clinton and the left didnt accept trump for 20 minutes. Ever. This is a guy who has had to fight every single day. It is going to go on like this. The good news for people who are sick and tired of the left, Scott Rasmussen released a poll where 72 of the American People think the elites despise them and have contempt for them. 72 . There is a base out there watching all of this go on. In long run it will isolate and shrink the woke Democratic Party in to a tiny enclave because they wont be able to function. Laura thank you so much. Its great to see you tonight. When we come back, my angle will explain the tale of the two fortunes. You will recognize one of them on one side of it. Former director of the National Intelligence ratcliffe had never before shared insight on origins of covid. Stay there. Laura now a tale of two americas. That is the focus of tonights angle. One of bidens main selling points in the 2020 campaign unlike truck he had empathy for all americans, especially those who were struggling. Joe biden is a fighter for the middle class. Biden has a plan to put americans back to work. This is what democrats care about. Providing support for American Families struggling. Voters were telling me i think joe biden cares about me. Laura of course, that was all a lie. He has only been in office by three weeks but already under the antibusiness policies like the halting of the keystone pipeline, many of the fellow americans are being made to suffer. Think about the people of the falk, arkansas, who until biden came along were grateful to have the goodpaying jobs with the pipeline project. Their incomes not only meant they could feed the families and build their futures. Biden completely upended their lives with the stroke of a pen. Its hard to make plans when you have administration trying to crush your future this was going to be the family home for you and three boys. Without a job. Now you dont have a job. We were both going to have the opportunity to work on the keystone. To have that future completely taken away. Just by one signature. The youngest daughter is a junior in high school. She is supposed to be going to college, too. I dont know how im going to pay for it. Laura absolutely heartbreaking. Bidens keystone decision alone will kill estimated 11,000 jobs this year. But dont worry, america. All the brand new Green Jobs Biden promised you are coming any day now im sure. The Biden Administration is going to let the thousands of Fossil Fuel Industry Workers suffer or will do be out of work because of the biden e. O. When and where do they go for the green job . I welcome you to present your data of the thousands of the people who wont get a green job maybe next time you are here you can present that. Laura oh, jen. Is that the empathy we were promised in the Biden White House . On this one issue of keystone, thousands are now frantically worrying about how they will pay their bills. Doesnt get a rats you know what about them. We know what biden and the handlers do care about . Catering to the rich donors and enriching the sleazy Family Members. Compare fortune of the keystone family to joes son hunter. Keystone workers have work experience. And relevant skills. Hunter was zero talent or skills was paid millions to sit on the board. He cashed in in on the biden name he readily admitted. If your last name was not biden would you be asked to be on the board of burisma . I dont know. Probably not. I dont think a lot of things would have happened in my life if my last name wasnt biden. Laura how lucrative is it to be a biden . Lucrative or not to pay 25,000 a month luxury home rental in venice, california. No sign he is fretting about covering his bills. He is so brazen about not being held accountable for the Business Dealings he remains heavily invested in a Joint Venture with companies owned by the Chinese Communist party. Are we supposed to feel better because he is now working to unwind his busy relationships with the most Powerful Global Adversary . Imagine if this was one of the trump kids. You know what the reaction would be. Im sure questions will be answered in his memoir. He landed 2 million advance for a new book deal with simon and schuster. Do you think one of the Keystone Workers could land a book deal for a fraction of the advance . Of course not. Joes brothers frank living large, too. Using his close relationship with his brother to drum up clients in a newspaper ad. The two biden brothers have long held a commitment to pushing environmental issues. My brother is a model for how to go about doing his work. They add subtley biden reputation. Oh, god. They should launch another 100day challenge. I ask all americans to name a biden Family Member who isnt somehow compromised. This country and this government are supposed to belong to the American People. All the people. Do you remember the language from the Gettysburg Address . Government of, by and for the people . Not just the well connected people. Not the rich people. Not the people with supporters in the media. Not the people with the connections to foreign dictators. No. All the people. The Trump Administration fought for the people who worked on the keystone pipeline. But to biden and his team, most americans are racists who are destroying the planet. Biden team, people are disposable and dispensable. The folks with the connections are buried in benjamins. Under the Biden Administration, the privileged few biden familys, wall street plutocrats, the Big Tech Billionaires and the hard left special Interest Groups like b. L. M. Will get paid big. That is not compassionate. Its not caring. Its cruel cronyism and Heartless Indeference to the working indifference to the working people. This is what people voted for. This is what georgians voted for in january. Until we vote again, this is what we will get. A tale of the two societies. Of the average americans scrambling to stay afloat while elite; such as, bade bides friends and family enjoy the high life. We get to vote again in less than two years. The more americans watch the twotiered economy, the less they will like it. That is the angle. Last night we told you that the w. H. O. With the chinese Handlers Nudging had emphatically dismissed the idea that the china virus originated in that wuhan lab. The chinese have since gone to pains to blame the u. S. Intel for what they call a baseless charge. What is the truth . Well, who better to turn to than john ratcliffe, the former director of the National Intelligence. Former director ratcliffe, you say that there is a connection between the Chinese Military and thewua wu institute of vir roll. Explain it for the Wuhan Institute of virology. Explain it to us. I appreciate this. I think what the w. H. O. Came out and said yesterday was disingenuous. Mike pompeo and i worked hard to get the best intelligence out before we left the office a few weeks ago so we could talk about what we knew about china and covid. Some of the intelligence is this. The Chinese Military ordered scientists at the Wuhan Institute of virology starting to experiment with the coronavirus in 2017. Some of them were 96. 2 genetically similar to the current covid19 virus. Further, some of the scientists working on the similar coronaviruses became sick with covidlike symptoms in the fall of 2019. What the World Health Organization would have you believe is after two weeks on the ground, they are talking to scientists and the doctors selected by the Chinese Communist party under the supervision of the Chinese Communist party and none of it of what i related to you about the intelligence relevant to a Potential Lab Accident at wuhan. Its really just disingenuous. Think about it. If this was a naturally occurring virus as the w. H. O. Intimated yesterday. If that is the case and no one was to blame for this, why would chinese officials suppress and silence doctors and the scientists and the journalists from writing about it . If no one was to blame, why would chinese officials prevent the worlds best scientists and the doctors are coming to wuhan. Laura immediately. Yeah. Laura i asked dr. Fauci about this last february. He indicated that you know well, we have a good working with relationship. He really didnt take any pains to question what china was doing. A lot of the american scientists have Close Relationships with china. A lot of money that is going both ways here. I think the whole thing has stunk to high heaven from the beginning on transparency alone. Right. Yeah. None of it makes sense unless you know what i know which is what our intelligence says it was the china virus. That it was originated from wuhan. And from whether by accident or otherwise the chinese officials were aware they had a controllable outbreak. But they took action that resulted in this transferring to the rest of the world. A worldwide pandemic that killed more than 400,000 americans. I think the most troubling thing, laura, if we take the best intelligence on this. The best intelligence. Human intelligence, signals intelligence and we take out the word china and president xi and we insert the word russia and vladimir putin, what would the administration be saying and democrats on capitol hill be saying . What would the Media Writing . Laura they would be flipping out. This just broke moments ago. Tonight joe biden had a phone call with president xi of china. According to the white house readout. Beijings coercive and the unfair practices, Human Rights Abuses and increasingly assertive action in the region including toward taiwan were raised. But here is what the Chinese State tv said about it. China xi tells biden, u. S. Biden cooperation is the only correct choice for china. And the United States. I dont remember president xi having that same kind of in your face reaction with President Trump. Who obviously had a different posture himself toward china. Right. We kept china at arms length because we saw them as the greatest National Security threat. The concern to be fearful of is there are folks in this administration and the democrats on the capitol hill that have prospered from and partnered with china. Have been in bed with china. Some cases figuratively and some cases literally. Its hard to expect them to be tough on china if they got rich off of china. Laura are you specifically referencing the c. I. A. Director, the biden c. I. A. Director . There are concerns that the c. I. A. Director is too soft on china. You have connections with a number of the cabinet folks that have gotten rich and prospered on Doing Business with china. Democrats on capitol hill, i talk this summer about the Massive Influence Campaign by the Chinese Government against elected officials in congress. Some of it has come to light. Laura well, Confucius Institute rules that President Trump put in place were quietly ditched by the Biden Administration. Almost no one covered it. We covered it last night. Mr. Ratcliffe, thank you so much. Its great to see you. Have you heard bidens radical plans for the military now . Well share them with you. And Bruce Springsteens jeep trip is over. Raymond arroyo has it. You see it next. Laura ems time for the seen and the unseen segment we reveal stories behind the headlines. For that we turn to aimed arroyo, author of the forthcoming book the thief that stole heaven. Biden had a big speech at thement today. How did he do . There was big news. You didnt hear it because of the impeachment but he announced a new task force to review the china policy. No word on Whether Hunter will be part of that. Then despite the upper palate challenges you will hear, he focused on the issue of race. Argued that as father of a vet he understands the military. And he can read the prompter. You know what its like being the commanderinchief is an enormous responsibility and one that i will never take lightly or easily. Imagine the incredible love it must have taken for proud tuskegee airmen. This organization thrives and succeeds because of our people. This is an organization defined american excuse me, defeated american enemies. I will never dishonor you or disrespect you and never politicize the work you do. But actually, laura, he has already dishonested them with the line. Biden is politicizing the military. He is creating new missions for them that have nothing to do with the defending us from the foreign enemies. This is from the same speech. Listen. There is no aspect of the agenda of the 21st leadership where the women and the men of the Defense Department do not have a role, helping curb the pandemic at home, and around the world, or addressing the real threat of the Climate Change or being part of ongoing fight for Racial Justice. Can you believe this . Women. Wait a second. The new agenda for the military. Wait a second. First, we know they are all a bunch of the extremists racist White Supremacists anyway so i dont know why biden would want their help. Second, does it mean Climate Change is the new w. M. D. That we are searching for the answer . Is that it . He said today we need to reprioritize and rethink defense. Its astounding. Laura he wants to defend the capitol against voters who show up to say we disagree with you. Not the ones that go in the capitol. They dont want voters to have a say going forward. The White House Press secretary doesnt work for the pentagon but she was defensive when she laid out the Administration Big bold goal of reopening schools, raymond. His goal he set have majority of schools, more than 50 open by day 100. Of his presidency. That means some teaching in classrooms. So one day a week, hopefully its more. 50 of the schools open one day a week. According to the School Reopening tracker, 64 of the Public Schools offer some sort of inperson learning already. So achieving biden goal is a step backward. All of this is absurd. When children are isolated this way, this should be the top priority. Not a Climate Change thing or using the military to enact Social Justice or Racial Justice reforms. Laura as long as the kids wear five masks a face shield and have gotten vaccinated multiple times with multiple boosters and there is a new hvac system in the school and only five or six kids per class it will go swimmingly. What else . Heartbreaker. Before we go, we covered the Bruce Springsteen cowboy jeep super bowl commercial. He drove around for no reason wearing cowboy hat in a jeep in the snow. But it turns out that jeep pulled the ad from youtube. It turns out he was arrested in november for driving recklessly and consuming alcohol in a National Park in new jersey. Wasnt he pull over for. 002 . I dont understand that. Quarter of the legal limit. Laura okay. Im not saying that is a good i dont understand. They make it sound like he was. 2, triple or double the legal i thought it was strange. Odd. Tiny bit. Laura pulled over by a Highway Patrolman or a State Trooper . Do we ahh laura raymond, is that true he was driving a pink cadillac . It could have been. Laura oh. First of all, raymond has all the songs by springsteen and he wanted me to say and nobody knows them. Except for a Bruce Fanatic of which raymond is not one. Well, it is hard to be a saint in this city, laura, when youre born to run. Laura Raymond Talking Springsteen is like me talking advanced calculus right now. Im sorry, raymond. If its sinatra reference were good. Fantastic. Bidens policy causing chaos at the border. We know that. Its bringing people, however. C. D. C. Says as i reference two masks are better than one. But is that what their own science says . We will tell you the science. Next. Want to save hundreds on your wireless bill . With Xfinity Mobile you can.

But instead of putting blame where it belongs, of course they engage in the sickening partisan spin we have become accustomed to. Take the a. P. Big headline today. In bidens early days signs of trump era problems at border. You see . Its trumps fault. You got to be kidding me. This from the new york slime. Migrant families force biden to confront new border crisis. Force . Families are forced . No. Bidens policies are the entire reason, the magnet for illegals now rushing to the border. And apparently by the way Bringing Covid with them. No big deal. Calling dr. Fauci. He doesnt care about this. The u. S. Metro area was the higheths number of new covid cases for 100,000 people. This is just over the past 14 days. Is eagle pass, texas, on the southern border, the Infection Rate there is 133 per 100,000. No other city in the United States comes close. The Infection Rate in southwest texas is extremely high in general. So much that the Texas Governor greg abbott sent National Guardsmen to support the local hospitals there thanks to empathetic joe. Now speaking of covid, the biden c. D. C. Put out this new guidance today. The c. D. C. Is updating the Mask Information for the public on the c. D. C. Website to provide new options on how to improve mask fit. This includes wearing a mask with a moldable nose wire, knotting the ear loops on your mask or wearing a cloth mask over disposable mask. Laura turn around two times and say mother may i. But the c. D. C. Science debunks that two masks are better than one. C. D. C. Study released this month found among adults 65 and older covid19 hospitalization growth rates declined less than three weeks after the mask mandate implementation. However, the declines were not statistically significant. Here now is the president of the committee to unleash prosperity. Phil, why is the c. D. C. Ignoring its own science, let alone the science they already published regarding the Influenza Transmission and masks . Well, laura, it east interesting because in a way, they are confessing that the single mask recommendation didnt work. They are saying what we have been saying all along which is that for the vast majority of the people used the masks used among the general public, you have no fit so you are breathing around the top and the sides. The Aerosol Transmission is not affected at all. Two weeking ak, fauci said there is no data or science on the question and now they have a study looks like done in an afternoon, with mannequins, configuration, ran three times each and said if you can somehow tie down the mass sock its tight against mannequin face or put the panty hose over it to hold it down, it will be more effective in filtering. Yes, in a Lab Condition where you can tie the mask down to the mannequin or use the hosiery to sort of hold it in place, you will get the better performance from that. But the study points out that this tells us nothing about what the effect would be in the real world because in the real world you are not necessarily going to get a perfect fit using the technique. You might make the fit worse. So, im not sure you can conclude anything from this. Other than they have sort of confessed maybe inadvertently that what they have been recommending didnt work. Laura how does anybody believe what is being said when it changes every five minutes . It gets more onerous without necessarily any Scientific Backing . They also say by the way the findings well, well move on. Miami herald reporting that the Biden Administration looking at Domestic Travel restrictions, phil, especially for florida. That is cute. Remember when trump floated the idea of putting the Travel Restrictions around new york in the initial outbreak and we were told its the outrageous, unconstitutional assault on freedom and cuomo said they wouldnt abide by it and all that stuff . That is when there was a massive outbreak. Now they want to impose it on florida, lower number than the National Averages because they are showing them up. Showing that without the restrictions and the lockdowns and they have been totally open for three or four months, you can have better results and that is unacceptable to the current administration. C. D. C. So they are floating the idea to punish florida for that. Laura first, it would be illegal and unconstitutional for them to try to do that to florida. Which is why they are just floating it. They would have them in court the next day. Maybe they will try it. I dont know. Laura desantis, his lawyers should be ready to file the second after one of these new Travel Restrictions goes in to place. Im cynical about this, phil. I think ron desantis, Christ Y Nome are the powerful governors to demonstrate that opening the economy didnt delay herd immunity and it was the right call with all things considered. They cant have the Success Stories out there. Im sorry. I think the Success Stories make them look terrible. Trying to keep it arrive when the cases collapsed. They are trying. Sell panic. Got to do it. Another mutation coming. Our media is filled with the folks that the most elite universities. Yet, the lack of the general knowledge is rather astounding. The last bite reveals the latest example. Business, you can turn your frontline reps into bottomline superheroes. Keyboard Taps bubble pops now, his emails always strike the right tone. [crowd] hooray [diana] learn more, at grammarly. Com business. Todays media really are the perfect combination of condescension and ignorance. Take msnbc andrea mitchell. She tried to fact check senator ted cruz says the Impeachment Trial is like shakespeare. No, thats faulkner. , no its from macbeth. She a pollized by saying she studied too much American Literature at u penn. Shannon bream and Fox News Night take it from here. I dont want to mix up my great works that i probably would do any moment. I better shut up now. Shannon what i do is google everything. I have learned to stop myself when i have an Impulse Tweet coming. I think its a good policy for me and all of us. I will learn from you. Have a great show. Shannon thanks. Okay. Late tonight President Biden talking to chinas communist leader about Climate Change and human rights. It comes at a time of strength for america. They
