♪♪ >> all right. critics specifically point to her stance on the laptop that once belonged to hunter biden. he's under federal investigation for his overseas business dealings. that story picked up during the presidential debate of 2020. but was sen surred by major social media outlets. we sat down with the associated press and asked about the laptop. she said we should view it as a trump campaign product. white house officials are defending the board. jen psaki just moments ago during a press briefing when asked by jacqui heinrich about this board and about nina jancowicz. she says there's going to be a lot of issues with migration if title 42 in fact is repealed, which all indications looks like it may be. jen psaki said there's a lot of misinformation when it comes to migrants learning about possibly coming to the united states and people just sowing information that is not true. that is the concern right there course to the white house. what makes this different, trace, and this is what we're trying to find out is something we just don't know. the department of homeland security has specifically not answered our questions, but we're hoping to find out more just to find out specifically what this new governance board does. trace? >> thanks, david. let's get to brian kilmeade, co-host of that morning show. he's also the host of a special who is elon musk, which is available at foxnation.com. let's start this, bryan. seems like this disinformation governance board is kind of a reaction to this fear that elon musk is suddenly going to control the narrative on the left and they're saying we need a government organization to try and combat that. your thoughts. >> i'm doing one nation as you know saturday at 8:00. talking to karl rove. turns out this was in the works, the disinformation committee before elon musk decided to buy twitter. having said all that, this does seem to be some type of offense and defense against elon musk who will have this quest not to have a right wing point of view but a balanced point of view. he wants people to have a right to attack him on a regular basis, for babylon bee use their sense of humor and not get suspended. people say who is this guy? the electric car that struggled for a while that is hitting its stride. the spacex guy. who is he? a fascinating look at who he became, who he was and how he and his brothers grew up in a divorced house. wants to get into america. has to settle for canada. worked his way down here. one thing after another, he was taking risks, believing in himself and a cut above just about in every job and every school he went to. >> trace: we'll be watching that. this is a treat from the disinformation czar, nina jancowicz. she said on the laptop from hill, apparently biden notes 50 former national security officials that believe the laptop is a russian influence op. trump says russia, russia, russia. she said i was leave tweeting the debate. she also said here, we should view it, talking about hunter biden's laptop, as a trump campaign product and she also called the laptop a fairy tale. this in itself is disinformation. >> how about this should be disqualified. how about if you line up the people that have credibility with the american people, to run this thing that i don't think should exist, called a disinformation czar or bureau through the office of homeland security who has not really done much right for a long time, including get the border. but they're going to take on something else. that's great. outside the coast guard perhaps. now to put this bureau with this woman with this track record of partisanship and is she that lazy? she says 51 intel experts say that hunter biden's laptop is real. look at the e-mail yourself, call somebody else in and say did hunter e-mail you this as opposed to michael hayden saying this was like classic russian disinformation. the laziest conclusion in the history of intelligence so-called experts. >> trace: we should also note that she was complimentary of christopher steele, the author of the dossier. i want to play this sound bite. this is from douglas murray. the author of war on the west and get your response on the other side. >> are the democrats going to crank down on the people lying about ron desantis' bill in florida? some people are saying that he's trying to say stop the word "gay" in florida instead of teaching nonsense in kindergarten. >> the man on the left is a huge talent. it's a fair point. a really fair point. all of this stuff the left is saying about the parental rights law in florida is misinformation. it's all wrong. it says nil in the bill about that but nobody has shut them down. >> trace, you're too smart for this. everybody is too smart for this. this is a lark. you can't possibly crack down on this. when people make a statement or absolute statement that ends up having some nuance, are they lying, suspended?

>> the latter is the right approach. we should always be cognizant of nuclear escalation and shouldn't go around provoking anyone. we shouldn't allow the fear of escalation or the fear of provocation or the fear of what he might do to dictate our actions. indeed, it's that fear itself such as it makes us hesitate that is provocative and that putin seizes upon and look at the year leading up to the invasion itself where the administration delayed lethal assistance no less than two occasions for fear of provoking vladimir putin and of course, he took that, ran with it and he invaded ukraine. so again, it's always good to be prudent in matters of geo politics. but we shouldn't fear putin. we should stand strong with our allies and take courage from the bravery that the ukrainians are showing on the ground. >> the "wall street journal" says the stakes in ukraine are enormous for the u.s. security. russia tries to expand their control in the east. defeating mr. putin's war of conquest is possible and the west can make the world safer by showing that an alliance of democracies can defeat a dictator. would you vote to give ukraine what it needs to win this war or to sustain their side in this war? >> i think we should operate with the idea that ukraine can win. it's highly unlikely that they will kick russian troops out of crimea, but i can see them to have a devastating effect on russian troops in the south and east of the country and push back his renewed offensive, particularly if putin wants to expand in the south to odesa. we should give the ukrainians what they need to continue to impose devastating costs on the russian army. they have not only demonstrated bravery, but they demonstrated enormous creativity. one thing that is working well is the rapid way in which we're sharing intelligence with ukrainians and their acting on that intelligence to attack russian ships, russian tanks, attack troop personnel carriers and things like that. that is something that we should continue going forward. >> trace: as you look at the map right now in ukraine, if there's any kind of peace deal to be had in the weeks and months ahead, do you foresee that russia would give back mariupol? would give back that land bridge to crimea that they're efforting? is that negotiable forladimir putin or will the map in ukraine look different than it does today? >> we're very far away from peace talks. the longer this goes on, the more people die, the more destruction there is in ukraine. i don't think putin will give up on his stated desire now to establish that land bridge with russia. so we have more fighting. our task is one, let's not impose a preemptive set of agreement on to the ukrainians. that's their choice to make. two, as we talked about before, let's put them in the best possible position in order to win on the battlefield and translate that battle field success into diplomatic success. i would add that we just went through seven years worth of javelins in ukraine. we'll have to replenish our own stockpiles that are important in other regions of the world, most notably taiwan to make sure china doesn't invade. >> trace: if putin goes to the g-20, if he goes, should other countries boycott?

we do. who do we have to thank for that? we have to thank the russians and the saudis. i know there's a family that is close to them. they're called the trumps. if they want to do something rather than getting $2 billion from the saudis, maybe they can ask them to open the spigots. democrats are not a party that is grounded in a fiction, which is the trump lie. the public does not have great confidence in a party taking over where their judgment is just so obviously flawed. that is a core belief for republicans. >> you -- i want to play this sound bite concerning the enormous economic growth in the country and i'll get your response, kimberly. >> what you're seeing is enormous growth in the country. it was affected by covid and the covid blockages. >> trace: the country is not buying this. you drive by gas stations, you see the megasigns that says that gas is at record highs, you can't sit there and say it's because of putin. they're not buying any of this. yet the administration keeps serving it up. >> yeah, unfortunately for them, americans are not stupid. all of the democrats hit the same talking points in a memo or an e-mail. at the end of the day, gas prices are up. inflation is up higher than since i've been alive. that was in 1981 we haven't seen numbers like this. people go to vote, they grow to vote based on what's in their pocket or what is not in their pockets. people are paying prices they shouldn't be paying. you have president trump making his rounds saying basically do you miss me yet?

if you forgive student loans and they get away with charging that as they continue to increase tuition, that's what we should focus on as well. congrats for tyrus to the books. it's selling like hot cakes. >> trace: "just tyrus", it's selling like hot kicks. >> thanks, both. >> trace: just how powerful is former president trump in this year's elections?
