Country to avoid a can at the trophy, but he didnt listen. And then, he claimed it didnt happen. I recommended that we maintained 2005 level troops in afghanistan. My assessment back in the fall of 20 that we should keep a steady state of 2500 maybe bouncing up to 35 you recollects will, Something Like that. The input was received by the president and considered by the president. Nobody told you your Military Advisors didnt say, no, you should keep 2500 troops, its been stable for the last several year, we can continue to do that. No, no said that to me that i can recall. Jesse while president bide season calling how he left afghanistan a, quote, extraordinary success, general milley said the rest of the world doesnt see it that way. Our credibility with allies around the world and with adversaries is being reviewed to see which way this is going to go. And i think the damage is one word that could be used. Jesse what about accountability . If you think some heads should roll for this fiasco, think again. Senator, as a senior military officer, resigning is a really serious thing. Its a political thing if im resigning in protest. Doesnt have to make those decisions just because were generals. And it would be an Incredible Act Of Political Defiance for a commissioned officer to just resign because my advice is not taken. Jesse so the big thing we learned today, dana, among other things is biden was told by all of the Military Leaders to leave a few thousand guys in there to make sure its calm. He ignored them. And then told the American People a lie about what he was recommended. Dana i remember he did that interview with George Stephanopoulos and he said, nobody told me that, and he said, not that i recall. I thought, well, one, thats not true because weve been seeing if months nevin the Trump Administration that the military was suggesting leaving a small force there. That was increasingly so in the spring this year in april of 2021, the decision was being made, the president made it in april beginning of april, 2021. And thought, well, we hope that turns out the be true. Of course, it didnt. Thats the headline that came out today. Now, its okay if a Commander In Chief wants to get briefed and go in a different direction and make a different decision. Hes the decider. But what he did was say, i made a decision but based not on something they told me and now theyre contradicting him. I wouldnt want to be in their shoes today. They have to defend a failure they know was partly because biden didnt take their advice. And they dont want to completely throw the Commander In Chief under the bus. But then the other piece, when senator inhoff said we have no counterterrorism on the ground, m illey said it was a statistical success but a failure. Its hard to spin leaving all of our interpreters and americans behind as a logistical success. Who are the people they got out . Not the people they were supposed to help. Jesse right. Milley we learn suicide a huge leaker, dan. He is talking to everybody in the media, all of these authors. Heres senator Marsha Blackburn asking what the general has been doing this whole time instead of planning the afghanistan withdraw. Hes been talking to about a half dozen reporters. Listen. General mille yshg, yes or no to this, did you talk to costa or wood ward about their book. Wood ward, yes, costa, no. Did you talk to Michael Bender for his book, is frankly we did win this election, the inside story of how trump lost. Yes. And were you accurately represented in these books . I havent read any of the books. So i dont think. Jesse buying that, dan . Dan i mean, really . You didnt read the book. So he spent all of the time talking. Milley looks like a guy that not only reads the book. A couple of stunning moments there. Hawley got him good. They got him to acknowledge it. You uh guys left americans behind. Cut the crap. There are americans there right now. Stop saying you didnt leave americans behind. You did, admit it. Apologize profusely. Get them out, do your thing. He did something in the hearing, a lot of people didnt catch it. I dont know how they missed it. He said two entirely contradictory things. Hes talking about the call to china which he claims now has been misrepresented, well see, where he spoke to the Chinese Communist party and usurped the role of the Commander In Chief and basically said, i was there to defuse the situation. So he didnt misinterpret anything. Thats not his job. I mean, if the Commander In Chiefs role is to be strategically misinterpreted, thats a strategy. You may not like it, but thats not his job. But later on, did you catch it. Hes in the decisionmaking chain there, no big deal. Later on when asked about the decision to withdraw from bagram, he passed the buckment. Im not a Decision Maker, im a conduit. Are you a conduit or Decision Maker . Surprised no one caught it. Two contradictory things. Greg another contradiction. He doesnt talk to anybody about the conversations he had with the president. Thats how he got out of the today. The one thing that did come out of it that you mentioned that was reported, theyre going to have a Written Recommendation that the brass was going to have to the white house. It was in writing. They asked for that. Once they get it in their hands, its explosive. Well wait to see what it is. I will remind everyone at the table, we got it in the audience that bob menendez, a strong ally of President Biden who is leading the charge on trying to get the information. To danas point about milley saying, logistic success, he was saying how dire the circumstances were when biden said we are leaving in two weeks. What can you get done in that amount of time . I thought to dans point about the call to china, the reason he wasnt usurping the Commander In Chiefs power is because Mark Asberger told him to do it. Dan not the january call. Youre talking about two separate calls. The china call. Dan those are two separate calls. I think there was a november october call and then january. The one he dan Acting Secretary Miller said we did not authorize the call. Two separate calls. You might be right. But not the second one. They asked for one i know he was following the chain of command. John rich, your thoughts. John an interesting hypocrisy. We know of the man on facebook who called out the superiors, he called out all of them, what are you doing, apologize. Tell us why you made this mistake. Hes in the brig today. Hes in the brig. You saw the most powerful generals in our country effectively calling out biden saying no, no, we told him to do this. But he did that and we dont know why. Is that not effectively calling out the president of the United States . Theyre not in the brig. Theyve got their jobs. But the young man who called them out is now in handcuffs. So, i dont understand d nature of that but i dont like it. One of the reporters can ask joe biden, you saw the hearing, not a lot of agreement. You lied to the American People. Any response to that . Maybe peter doocy. Our very own. Amanda dunaway theres hearing on the house side. Up next, liberals and progressive das blaming, ready, covid for the massive spike in violent crime. Dan liberals are blaming covid for a crime surge, shocker. They say the spike in climb is because of the pandemic and the media is eating it up. What about defunding the police, no cash bail, and soft on crime policies. The fbi released new numbers that showed murders soared 30 in 2020. John, blaming covid . Isnt this fairly obvious. You let bad guys out of prison, they do bad stuff. John thats how bad guys look at it. You dont have to post bail and you can steal up to this amount and nobody is going to say anything about it. Thats a bad guys dream. There is to have a situation like that. But the question is, why on earth would you want your town to be like that . Like the people in charge who are making the decisions, why are they putting us in that position. And the only thing i can think of, you called it, mainly liberal cities out there. Whats the thought process . They want destruction, chaos, these things . Why . So they can have more control over their town . Maybe the wilder it gets, the more they can clamp down. Thats the only reason i can find it. If you ran your house hold. If i told my kids, now you can do whatever you want and youre never in trouble. There would be no house when i came back home. There has to be consequences if youre going to commit crime and all of the regular people who live in these towns, theyre trying to escape. Dan dana, i dont want to put you on the spot. Youre the most sober panelist. Dana im not drunk. Dan yeah, no intoxicants. They know what works. The policing, the giuliani area, then get rid of that and crime goes up. Is this a deliberate play for votes and whos voting for this . Dana i saw a story, oh, the crime is up because of covid, not because of policies that have led to it. I said we should do it on the five because for a long time, they would point to us they would find some way to protect liberal Decision Makers, and now its covid. But the main number thats up is shooting. If you take new york city, its 97 increase. Are we to believe that all of these perks all of a sudden were let go from their work and then started to shoot people . If you look, it is gang members and that activity and also what you just mentioned, no cash bail, the prosecutors are lax, basically theyre like were not really going to prosecute on that law. You can skate on those types of things. And i believe that the police are starting to feel like the Border Patrol does, right . Theyre demeaned and disparaged. They feel they cant do their jobs. So they pull back. What happens when you pull back . Everybody comes in. Dan jesse, same question. Is this deliberate . 9 out of 10 cities where the spike is happening are led by overwhelmingly liberal politicians, this is not a statistical accident here. Jesse im upset you dont think im the most sober analysist, come on, dan. Dana maybe jesse thank you, dana. Dan my dad loves you. He doesnt watch my show. He watches your show. He watches mine on dvr on saturday night. Dana your dad and his mom ought to have a chat. Jesse lets not encourage liberals to get together and talk. The democrats do nothing wrong, dan. Not in the cities they run, the borders they control. Theyre perfect people. And sometimes perfection is misunderstood. So, a simpleminded person like myself would see the democrats empty the prisons, defund the police, bail out the shooters and the looters. While at the same time taking the police off of the streets and say, wow, that would create a spike in homicide. But, no, no. The china virus, dan. And thats actually encouraging. Its the one thing that democrats have blamed on china. So maybe thats a start. And if it is the pandemic thats caused this spike in homicide, did the spike in homicide occur in all of the other countries in the world . Well, good thing i checked, john rich, because i spent all afternoon looking at murder rates throughout the world. And murder rates have gone down in mexico, colombia, russia, japan, australia, flat in india. The United States is the only country that has seen historic rise in 2020 in murder. Maybe it has something to to with defunding the police. Im not so sure. Dan i come to you last. I need an explanation. This cant be accurate if you believe in data. Nine out of the ten cities are run by liberals where the spike is happening. They did research and determined the lockdowns happened around the country and the spike in murders again was only in areas dominated by liberal politicians. Its obviously not true. Its something to do with the politics, not covid. Dana not sure that it has to do necessarily with the politics. Two things are important. One, jesse, all of the countries you read, they dont have a rampant gun problem like the United States of america have. People can still kill you with a knife. But theyre not. Jesse go down to colombia. I lived in l. A. Where people got knifed all the time. Nothing close to the murder rate. The data were talking about is 2020. Those are the trump years. All of the blaming on President Biden thats happening now, the murder rate has even gone down. Another component of the fbi data that the short term increases were all regions, not just liberal cities. All regions, that means places where conservatives are. It cant just all be bail reform, defund the police, yadda, yadda. The murder rate overall is lowest since 1990. Conservatives say, weve never seen anything like it. The fbi was screaming. Dan seriously, on the trump point. Are you seriously suggesting that when trump during the crime wave after the george floyd incident there offered to send in the fed and National Guard to the liberal cities to stem the crime wave is this was trumps fault. Im suggesting. Dan isnt that weird . Let me answer the question. Its not weird. This is bidens america. Play all of the ads, this is whats going on in bidens america. This is what happened in trumps america. He oversaw the majority of the pandemic because people have been vaccinated since President Biden was in office. Its important to point it out. Dan in liberal cities. Not just liberal cities. Dan nine out of ten. Of the top places because theres a higher concentration of people. But there are regions all over this country. Dan but nine out of ten were liberal cities. Jesse yeah, most of the murder is taking place in the liberal cities. Admit im right. Dana murder is bad wherever it happens. Dan nine out of ten are liberal cities. Its nine out of ten. They heard you. Dan nine out of ten. Just throwing that in there. Red states are fighting back as migrants sporting biden tshirts head to our border. Really . That happened . Biden tshirts . Fl going to stop catch and release, another Massive Group of migrants, some 20,000 strong getting ready to head to the u. S. While the white house said the border is closed, the migrants are saying otherwise. I would like to send a message for biden, because haiti more difficult. Will you go back to haiti . No, no. Never, never. Never. So many ironic things going on in our countril right now. We say we want people to come to the country because of humanity. These people come from rough places around the world. I travelled around, we all have, weve seen it. And we empathize with where we are. But the way this is set up at the border right now is anything other than humane. Youre luring them across the border thinking they can come on in, which they can. What happens in the meantime, child trafficking, fentanyl coming in by the bail as we would say right now. Women being raped and assaulted as they come across and theyre willing to give all that up and put themselves in a danger to have a shot at america. Were not handling it correctly. We see the carnage continue to go on. Its heart breaking. How do you view whats going on. Dan you brought up irony, tragedy. Fentanyl, women being abused, kids being trafficked. I thought the most tragic was the day they closed the legal border in del rio, The Port Of Entry in the bridge to legal people who come here to work, cross the border and truckers. That was closed because 20,000 people decided to enter illegally who ironically got in before the legal truckers got in. They didnt open the check points for weeks later. For a second, process this. Horse blinders for a minute. People walked up to our fictitious theres no southern border. Please, stop the nonsense. You walked up and got in quicker than a trucker who works for a living with the global entry pass. He had to wait two weeks and drive down the road to another port of entry. Youre penalized for doing it correctly. Dan why do it correctly . Just walk in. Whats the point . Friends of mine who built businesses here, nobody hates ilLegal Immigration more than legal migrants. They hate it more than anybody. Dana, do you have any stories than folks you know. Dana great example. He came here, he did it legally. It took years. Hes an educated person. We have resources. We have we have internet access. We could go through i could call up the congressman and they could take my call. And thats how we were able to do the system. And i remember saying to peter at one point, you imagine why people do this illegally. Were educated people. And its completely difficult for us to figure out. So the Legal Immigration system is needs attention, desperately. And all of this illegal activity is making increases in Legal Immigration much, much harder. I also believe that theres something we need to we need to remember. The criticism from the left about obama as deporter in chief and now biden as somebody they think is horrendous that he spent some of the young people the single men back to haiti, they think that is like human rights violations. So, where we have a thought of like we should have a legal order we need to understand, like theyre being pulled into completely different direction and one of the things is President Biden when he campaigned, he was the moderate guy, return to normal. Everything is going to be calm. But, if you look at some of the policies that hes put forward and then the legislative initiatives, he has moved left. So, watch this space pretty closely. John jesse, american citizenship, the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, these are things that you earn. These are things that our forefathers have earned. All of the men and women have died to keep those rights alive. Does the world want those things . Yes, they do. They dont have those things, the right to pursue happiness. They dont have the right to do anything, thats why they want to come here. But its unfair to the people who do it correctly. How do we explain it to migrants who come in here and go through the paperwork like dana said. Dana nobody knows happiness more than you, john rich. You are a beacon. John that is right. Jesse i found it ironic that the illegal immigrant was wearing a biden harris tshirt. I havent seen abamerican wear one of those. Thats the first time. Dan i have. You cant put it on television. Jesse right. The fcc. This is why the biden game is so stupid. They went out and said, the border is closed. Then they go on Fox News Sunday with wallace and say, you know all of those haitians that were down at that tent city, we let 12,000 of them in. We flew 4,000 back to haiti. They bit our agents on the flight. But we let 12,000 in. Im not great at math. Thats why im here on fox. But thats what, 2 3 of the border is open according to those statistics. Thats why people keep coming. And now theres another caravan, 16,000 strong forming in panama coming up through colombia and guatemala and into mexico. Nobody is stopping these caravans. Wasnt harris supposed to go down there and get to the bottom of the root causes. Whatever happened to mr. Diplomat, joe biden . He hasnt stopped a damn thing. All of the people here are supposed to report to a court date . Theyre not going to report . Theyre going to flee and hes not going to deport them. You can commit assault. You can as an illegal haitian hit jesse waters in the head with a baseball bat and joe biden wont deport you under his own rules. Probably give that guy a congressional medal of honor. John nobody can look at del rio, texas and go, wow, thats great. Nobody likes that. I dont care what your politics are. Thats inhumane the position theyre in. So why dont we close the border . Well, they have moved very quickly to get those 30,000 people that were under the bridge that took, what, two days in the end once it started to get. They let people in. They let people in, jessica . You say closed border . There is no 30,000. I understand that. I wanted to say that president obama finally weighed in on this. He hasnt said anything for a long time. Jay johnson, a dhs secretary talked about it. He finally said, its time to do something and he brought back up comprehensive Immigration Reform which both sides Pay Lip Service too. I wonder if him weighing in. I carry a biden harris bag. You see it every day. Come downtown. You see biden swag everywhere. Jesse i dont go downtown. They dont like me down there. Dan it has the wrong word in front of biden. John facebook is under fire for covering up how toxic the platform is for kids. Its toxic, all right.

Internal documents showing the Company Knows the platform is toxic for teen girls and can cause Serious Health and body issues. The Social Media Giant is defending the effort and says it will reevaluate and focus on team safety. Breaking today, the company formed a team to study preteens and set a threeyear goal to create a product for what they called an untapped audience. Dana, does any of it surprise you . Dana a couple of things, like, one, i understand companies wanting to appeal to a market. And a kids market. If you if you watch saturday morning cartoon, do they still have those . But remember back then when those days youre younger. You remember. Saturday morning cartoons whachlt were the commercials . All from the things that you would want. And, so, i understand the company and capitalism and desire to try to reach a market. I understand that social media can be toxic. If you look at that dear evan hanson movie, the musical is coming out. We know this causes problems. I do not think facebook is responsible for body issues for women. As a girl, i would hear about those things. You saw it at that time, it was the womens magazines. They were blamed for it. Thats an underlying issue. But i also think that parents are having such a hard time anyway dealing with screen time. And in a way, you look at facebook maybe they were dragged kicking and screaming into a decision to put this this on hold. But they were responsive. And maybe at this point, theyll say, well, we dont need do that right now. The alternative is kids will be on regular instagram. Because theyre going to be on instagram. Or wherever else it might be tiktok, or Something Like that. Where they might do research on them. You have a daughter, dan, does she have these . Dan its complicated. Im talking about libertarianism, i tell my daughter, youre not responsible enough to take a picture. I was in the gym working out, shocker. This guy in the gym spent an hour working out and 45 minutes taking selfies of himself, right . Theres a geraldo joke here. Hes taking selfies of himself the entire time thinking, really, man . This is your whole life . Every pose, like this, like that. Yeah, so, listen, were human beings and stuff, but freedom, let the kids figure it out. Do better parenting. What do you think . Jesse i say send kids outside. What happened to go outside and play. The murder rate. Jesse i tell you, Helicopter Parents. In the democratrun cities. So the Helicopter Parents need to be around, right . They dont want the kids to play outside alone because theyre afraid of the pedophile. Remember the pedophile fiasco, everyone is afraid. Kids are annoying, right . So you take them inside. You dont let them play outside, theyre going to drive you crazy. So the helicopters are saying here, take a screen for an hour or six so i can get mental clarity and relax. Theyre on the screens the whole time. The brains get preyed on by the vultures at facebook. Theres mostly pedophiles online too. It backfired. The kids, its like an arms race for superficiality. I know kids are going to go, am i prettier, am i skinnier, how good do i look . It will destroy their selfimage. We dont want that. No one cherishes women as much as i do. I think one expresident does cherish women more than you do. Now john rich . John these social media sites have more analytics than any company on the face on the earth. They know everything about everything that happens, you know from your dealings with pa pa parler and otherwise. For them to react after the report came out . They knew it before it came out. If youre a parent and you think Social Media Tech Giants care about your kids . They do not care about your kids. A preteen version of that is nothing but a big piece of bait on the hook to throw it out for every nasty varmin in the world saying im a preteen. Dont kid yourself. They dont care. They want to sell clicks and advertisedment. Watch out for that. It will be interesting to see what lawsuits come out of that. Go to the library. Jesse or outside. John grab a bb gun. Okay.

A new study revealing that the age that americans finally start adulting, thats a verb now, apparently. This includes saving for a home, filing taxes, and sticking to a budget. John, by the time you were 30, i think, you were well on your way. John i had been right out of a high school in a van pulling a uhaul trailer playing holiday inn lounges across america at that point. I had to know what a p l was, do my taxes, all that stuff. I was ahead of the game. Dana is it fine to become an adult in your 30s. It depends on the adult. I was in school for a long time as jesse likes to make fun at me about. I started adulting at 28. But i think its about your circumstances and its nice to see, actually, like genzs, it will reverse. Theyre more entrepreneurial. They want to go out in the world. Dana surely you think this is bad. Jesse i do. You can take out loans and stay in college forever. You dont have to buy a car. You have uber. Obama care, you can be on your Parents Health insurance until youre 25. Homes are expensive. Everyone is putting off parents and kids. Democrats giving you free money. Dana theres more coming. When do you think is a good age to become an adult. Dan i think like in the old days, 18, 20. They stuck me out in the precinct in brooklyn doing a Speed Reading Adulting Course right away. Grow up quick or get yourself killed. Dana generation x doesnt have a lot of sympathy or empathy. Im trying. Roller skateeking has skyrocketed in popularity. You should see jesse. The demand for skates are so high that buyers are waiting months to score a pair for their own. Jesse this is a fake story. Ive never seen anyone roller skate. I think someone made this up to get on the fastest. Ive seen the electric bikes. Thats hot. Not roller skates. Ive seen them on the west side highway. They made it to the pretty park. Downtown, you may not have been there. There was a Woman Snoozing with her skates next to her. Dana did you have a skate city in amarillo . John no. The church would go and roller skate in someones gym. Not big enough to make a lap. So you see the kids slamming into the wall over and over. The only reason a guy goes to a Roller Skating Event is to meet girls. Dana were you good . Dan no, i was terrible. I want to see the financial filings. This is a fake story. Skate city on arapaho road and i was really good. Dan i was an embarrassment. Dana i still rollerblade. Chipotles new brisket has got everyone talking. We decided to try it for ourselves. This is brisket . So, dan, youre a brisket connoisseur. You can eat. Dan im a new york guy. I know brisket well. I tell you, a story in the secret service, the old sac don white 2 1 2 pounds of extra moist brisket for four hours from rudys in waco, texas. Dana none for you, jessica . Jessica inelegant. Dana wow. John where i come from, girls eating barbecue is the hottest thing possible. Jessica not pregnant on air. Jesse hes the brisket expert. I dont want to say its great. Dana all yours. Dan i love chipotle. Dana if greg were here, he would want some. Dan its good. But dana pretty good. Jesse that is not a ringing endorsement. Dan i dont want to hurt my stock. Its not bad. Jesse its good. Ill eat anything. John we like to do our own. I have a big green egg at home. Go get a big green egg, seriously. Its the best afternoon. For eight hours. Dan the brisket and it falls apart. John that meat falls apart. You never want to eat anyone elses. Dana make your own brisket, become an adult, and buy roller skates. Were good here. Jesse time now for one more thing. Start with you, john. John i have a new show called The Pursuit On the fox business network. Its an important show, i think. Because i sit all kinds of americans down. I dont care about their politics where they come from or what they look like. Its about pursuing happiness in america. We tell their stories how they struggled and pushed through the hard times and really took advantage of the American Dream through hard work. Its everybody from wynona judd, richard petty, gavin degraw, eddie george. Its the gam but the of great americans. It reminds us what we still have in common in this country. Is there anything we still have in common, dan . Yes. Its the right to pursue happiness. Thats what we celebrate on this show. Im excited to be on fox business. Dana also there is whiskey . John also whiskey. Dan Patriot Award i forgot to take one i want the one in the middle. John Made In America supporting the folds of honor as always. Jess jets cops. And dan bongino. I didnt even need a reminder. Everybody knows. Dana pursuit of criminals. Jesse dan . Dan i have a sad story a real American Hero was lost this weekend my friend mark was a secret Service Agent. He died tragically of cancer it came on quick. This is now the second time on this show im talking about a young, healthy secret Service Agent who died of cancer, Collin Johnson was the first.

Breaking tonight, the nations top military and defense Officials Say they recommended keeping a small number of troops in afghanistan prior to complete u. S. Withdrawal to stiffen the spine of Afghan Forces to hold off the taliban to effectively evacuate American Cities and allies first. President biden made a different choice. And the way that withdrawal unfolded was chaotic and has been widely criticized across the globe
