Inside a look at the founder. He flew to the site immediately. Fox friends begins right now. And right to that fox news alert. Marine Sergeant Andrew tahmooressi a free man this morning after 214 days in a mexican prison. Tahmooressi has been released and is back inside the United States this morning. Peter doocy is live in washington with how it all went down. Good morning, peter. Good morning. You just a heard anna say this marine spent 214 days in a mexican prison for what he says was an innocent mistake. A uturn across the border with three guns in his car. But now Andrew Tahmooressi is back home a private jet picked him up just after 9 00 last night. A a few hours after a judge released him on humanitarian grounds because he has posttraumatic stress. The tahmooressi family has a lengthy statement out this morning. To all those across the country who walked shoulder to shoulder with us as we fought for andrew, it has reminded us that at a time of much discord americans can come together for one of their heroes and we have never been more proud to be americans. There was a strong bipartisan effort to get andrew released led by republican congressman matt sammon and riot as well as Bill Richardson. He is in good spirits. He is smiling. He wants a steak. He wants to go home. He wants to see his mom. He was in very good spirits. He has had a tough ordeal. He had close to 8 months, but now he is f6 at the end of the tahmooressi family very gracious statement, there is a line also but how they now take comfort in new very visible youtube signs by the mental coborder that they hope will prevent other families from experiencing the seven month ordeal that they just had. Back to you in new york. Peter doocy a great summation. A specialist in hostage investigation. Gwen will be on. Seven months of pressure to free tahmooressi what were the diplomatic pressures that finally brought him home . Joining us now is retired Major General bob scales. Nice to see you this morning, general. Good morning to you. What happened behind the scenes . It seems like there was a lot of criticism. Congressional hearing what was taking so long to put the pressure on the Mexican Government to let this unfold. What finally was the straw that broke the camels back . I think the elections. There was a lot of talk around here in this town that his best chance for being released would be immediately before the american elections. Most politicians and most folks in the state department actually ran away for this. Had it not been for people like Greta Van Susteren who had from the very beginning took a National Spotlight and shown it on Sergeant Tahmooressi. This never would have turned out the way it did. We know an enormous gratitude in the only to the fox network but to greta for hammering everybody. And she pushed the president on this. She pushed Hillary Clinton on this. She pushed john kerry on it. And others joined the team like Bill Richardson, Montel Williams and others. The thing that pushed it over the top was just the volume. The 100,000 signatures. Luminaires in the network standing up to politicians whats gonna happen to Sergeant Tahmooressi . Why did it take why did it take so much pressure to get the twhows act . Seems like no brainer, American Veteran mistreated in a foreign jail. Why wouldnt they act without all that pressure . You know, who he knows . This is the administration. I have never heard them act with a great deal of selfmotivated concern on virtually anything that they have done over the last six years. They have to be pushed and drug to take action even when it deals with an american citizen suffering horrible ptsd in a mexican jail. It took that much of a media light to detective the administration up and moving and get this general released. Ptsd, of course, Sergeant Tahmooressi had that when he got there. And, you know, notu p÷ getting the treatment that you imagined he would be needing in the jail. And then piling on all awful things he had to go through for some months. At one point he was bound by four point constraints. Give us an idea of what you think he is going through this morning. Yeah. Its very important for our viewers to understand that ptsd is cumulative. You dont just finish one phase and it falls off and then you pick it up somewhere else. Ptsd builds up over multiple tours in the combat zone and multiple traumatic experiences. I to tell you he had two tours in afghanistan. And, lets face it, guys, he had a seven month combat tour in mexico. So, im sure his emotional condition is fragile at this point. He needs to get home. He needs to have that steak that he wants. But i trust that the military will treat him as a very very significant and serious ptsd case because i think this kid is coming out of this a a lot worse than he went into it. General scales, we appreciate you joining us this morning. Thanks so much for your insight. Thanks. What does he want when he gets home he . Says he wants a steak and stone crabs. Of course he does. Hes an american. More on this throughout the show this morning. Some other stories making headlines on your saturday morning happening overnight.

Have a. Well, fuivel following the midterm elections you probably saw. This Mary Landrieu the embattleed incumbent state of louisiana interviewed by chuck todd whats what exactly is going on in this state. She says racist and also sexist. It doesnt like women. In other words, she may an u. S. Senator but she isa5b[h a victim. President obama may be the most powerful person in the world but is he a victim too. A lot of the problems president obama has faceside due to racism. The south has not been the friendliest or easiest place for africanamericans tovance. Its been a difficult place for women to be recognized as the leaders we are. Everyone knows this is the truth. I will continue to speak the truth even as some would twist my words seeking political advantage. Chuck todd about it she came under fire a whole lot for this. Pause she was trying it to stay away from the fact that she voted with the president 90 of the time according to pundits we have had on the news channel. Is he completely in the tank as far as his ratings go. And when you tie yourself to the president , things arent looking so good for you. What do you do . You try to tell americans that they are racist and sexist. Its not going over well with americans. Charles krauthammer was on Sean Hannitys show last night. He said this is insulting. Listen. When you are could you seed of being a racist. You dont even dignify the accusation with a response because then you are conceding the premise. I have to prove im not a racist. I oppose the president because of his policies. I have since the beginning of his administration. If someone wants to imply its on account of his race, i will not give them the dignity of a response. Thats not america. Unfortunately, increasingly it is america or at least american politics where everything has to do with racial and ethnic and gender id it at this. Democrats are not running on policies and economy and unemployment. They are running on identity. You are a woman w your side you are for abortion. You are africanamerican, they hate you, we dont. Its not about policies its about dividing people into categories and whipping up fears. They voted her into office and bobby jindal an American Indian into office. It doesnt make sense.

Whoo fortyfour ladies, thats me whoo. Gonna get some cold cuts today brand new threats from isis. Diabolical. Online chatter. Vazquez warnings that isis may be looking into any possible means to kill westerners. That would include using ebola and poisoned needles. Its a horrifying threat. How serious is it . Well, joining us now is Counter Terrorism expert dr. Sebastian gork, thanks for being with us. Absolutely. Whats the likelihood that this could happen. Americans are very fearful of ebola right now. Is this isis just trying to play into that. Is this something that you think really may happen . Well, if you look at the last history of the 13 years since 9 11, we have had the anthrax attacks. Weve had definitely al qaeda. There is video of al qaeda experiments with a chemical agent in afghanistan that we found not long after we invaded. Prior prior to 9 11 we have japan spending millions of dollars on trying to biological weapons. Those werent successful. They did in 1995 deploy a homemade conservative agent tokyo metro killing 12 people. There is a history of terrorists trying to use these kind of agents. The fact of the matter, biological agents very difficult to do. Very dangerous to those who try to employ them. But chemical weapons much easier and cheaper to deploy. There is something uniquely terrifying though about a weaponized virus. It wouldnt take too many people to die for the west to be terrified by this, would it . Absolutely. And here if you think about the fact these are jihadists that we are fighting. And for them, their avowed motto is to die in the way of jihad. So you could imagine that in sort of being a suicide bomber with a vest full of explosives, you could inject yourself with a disease and then you could become a human bomb if you will. So, absolutely. This fits into the mentality of the islamic terrorist, the jihadi terrorist. Just another way of fighting for allah if you will. Right. These terrorists have used the internet as an online battlefield of sorts thats really helped them in their recruitment process and all of that judging from the chatter that you have seen, how would they go about weaponizing ebola . Well, the first thing you have to do is you have to locate the agent. So, with certain possible agents anthrax, you can actually locate that in nature there are places where anthrax can be isolated from the soil. With ebola, you have to go to those zones. You have to go to sierra leone. You have to go to those places where the outbreak is is occurring, track down toes hot zones if you will one of those hot zones and then get that individual safely to the place you want to infect. In this case it looks like it would be spain, possibly as a result of their decision to send troops to iraq not long ago to train the Iraqi Military it can be done in theory but just have to do the research.

One killed and another severely injured after a test flight in the mojave desert. Rick reichmuth had a chance to visit last year. I had a chance to interview Richard Branson founder of vir expwrin galactic and see what they were doing to take space flight into the world. Take a look. Virgin galactic spaceship is modeled after this. Spaceship one. Built by engineer burt rotan and housed at the smithsonian air and space museum. The idea of going to the space as safelyian is audacious idea. This is the ship that made this possible. We built shaysship 2 and and it will be the part of a whole new era of space travel. We went hot mojave air and space court where working with the shaysship company to design and build shaysship 2. You are making smasships. Thats a crazy sounding concept. It is the whole space industry has changed there are opportunities galore. Its really an exciting time. This is it what they are building spaceship 2. The vehicle that will bring branson and nearly 800 Ticket Holders into space. Dave mckie is the chief pilot for Virgin Galactic. Dave has been conducting many of the test flights and will be the pilot taking spaceship 2 on its Maiden Voyage into space, a trip very unlike any of the shuttle launches. Its a twopart launch system. White knight is the first stage. We with this spaceship we take off on normal runway. We climb up to launch altitude 46,000 people feet. We release spaceship so it falls away. And then about three seconds after parting motor is lit up and off we go. Thats a fundamentally safer concept. The other part of
