Way. This is Getting Better and better. Congressman devin nunes is here. Word tonight, i think, biden is jumping into the 2020 race. Im so happy. Someones should tell the democrats their two front runners are white men with the combined age of 153. Its good if you are a first growth bordeaux. That debate and highlights from todays wacky biden event with the firefighters. And an important ingraham angle update. Portland state isra responding o this show after we covered the antifree speech thugs at school erlast week. First, the elites admitting privileges. Thats the focus of tonight angle. We have heard a lot about White Privilege lately from the social justice crowd. This idea that whiteness itself can be an asset, a proxy for a class or othern social privileg. But today we saw what the real abusive privilege looks like when elites of different ethnic backgrounds and races use their money to buy status. Educational status, that is, for their children. What do manuel henriquez, ceo of aphercules capital, doug hodge, former chief operating officer of pimco, actresses Felicity Huffman, loriie, loughli of T International law firm willkie farr and gallagher all have in common . They were among the 33 parents and nine athletic coaches across the country charged in a 25 million bribery scheme to get their kids into top colleges. Numerous parents paid singer between 15,000 and 75,000 to have someone take the exam for their child or correct the answers afterwards. Parents paid singer money he used to bribe coaches and administrators to designatee their children as recruited athletes for various schools. These parents are a catalog of wealth and privilege. This case is about the widening corruption of elite College Admissions through the steady application of wealth combined with fraud. There can be no separate College Admissions system for the wealthy and i will add there will not be a separate criminal Justice System either. Laura dubbed operation varsity blues, a web of fraud and chaos perhaps going back to 2011 until just last month. Celebs and titans of industry shelled out huge money to university staffs at prestigious universities who would designate their kids as athletes. Athletes applications get considered under lowered standards at many schools. Every year hundreds of thousands of hardworking, talented students strive foror admission to elite schools. The students work harder and harder every year in a system that appears to grow more and more competitive every year. That system is a zerosum game. For every student admitted through fraud, an honest, genuinely talented student was rejected. Laura another man at the center of this fraud is the guy you heard referenced earlier, william singer, otherwise known as rick singer, the founder of a college prep firm calledng the edge college and career network, a. K. A. The key. He pled guilty today and is cooperating. The Sacramento Bee quoting local College Admissionsin counselor,r, margie ammot, as saying singer would tell parents that he could get their child into the college of their choice. Professional Education Consultants dont say i can get you into a specific particular college. Part of the singer magic was allegedly having expert testtakers take act and s. A. T. Tests for his clients. Also the added bonus of photoshopping applicants heads onto random athleticlooking bodies. In the New York Times piece about this, the focus was partly on how todays highpressure application environment affects this. The charges underscored how College Admissions have become so cutthroat and competitive that some have sought to break the rules. Well, guess what. The process has been super competitive for decades especially since universities have f increased admissions of foreign students. This is no excuse, though, for gaming the system. In this case, thats not just breaking the rules but breaking the law. Something you long believed to be true but realize isnt. Good behavior is rewarded. Laura dont you miss larry kings laugh . Thats what i call a desperate housewife. Apparently driven to desperate and illegal measures. Just a few years earlier, huffman was tweeting this photo of herself demanding respect and equality. You see the hashtag about our daughters. I guess that equality wouldnt apply to the girls applying opposite of her daughters for lsthe same college slot. Heres how i see all of this. There was a time when colleges used to mostly admit on merit, mainly test scores plus athletics and extracurriculars. Then they started various legal forms of corruption. Legacy admissions, lowered standards for athletes, admission for big donors, and of course affirmative action. But this latest bust takes the corruption to an entirely new level where the elites played the process, turning what was a partial scam into a fullscale bracket. Once College Admissions is perceived as a scam, well, guess what, it attracts scam artists. The solution is to bust these scammers but also to reconsider the legal schemes the elites have used and abused for years which only hurts the hardworking qualified kids, who deserve admission like the prosecutor said. The reputation of elite colleges was built on merit, and these institutions were envisioned as rungs for those with the qualifications for those to climb up the ladder. They were not supposed to be clubs for the elites. Now we need to return to the principle of meritbased admission again. Make the lawbreakers pay in this case, but also i its time to lk at the institutionalized abuses of the admissions process across the board, especially since a lot of these schools are being subsidized in one way or another by the taxpayers. And thats the angle. All right, joining me now, harmeet dhillon, attorneyt and Republican Party official. Dan lee is the cofounder of solomon admissions. Christopher hunt is a college as a consultant for College Essay mentor. All right, i a dont know who ts story is more damaging to, universities whove moved far left and obviously this is terrible for them. Or the elites who are so desperate to get their kids into what they think are the best schools ever. Thinking to myself is it worth going to jail . Is it really worth it . What really is going on here . I dont think these parents ever thought they were going to get caught. When you look at some of the secretly recorded testimony, its clear they kind of thought they were going to get away with it and its wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Thats one issue. As you mentioned, these kids have this entitlement mentality and everybody gets a reward. Everybodys number one. There is no such thing as competition anymore. S so kids are already spoiled brats, just to be very frank. Parents are waiting, maybe they werent paying attention. I think its very bad for these iindividual parents but you know this is the first shoe thats going to drop. Its probably a much bigger scandal. Laura christopher, you were quoted in the New York Times piece written about this today and i know theres a lot of Good College Consultants out there who are just trying to advise parents who i think right now are very overwhelmed. People are overwhelmed with his process. If i had a dollar for the number of friends of mine my kids are young still. Friends of mine are m like oh, y god, im doing this College Admissions. Its a nightmare. If you dont know somebody. A friend of mine kids got an 800 on the s. A. T. , 790, incredible kid. Didnt get into princeton. Got into a couple really good schools but was basically gooseegged at the ivies. Im, like, good for you. Go to a great state school. What are your thoughts here . Oo how deep is the corruption . Well, in terms of criminality, think its pretty shallow. I doubt this guy is the only one who has bribedi or attempted to make a direct payment, but in terms of how you want to define corruption, in terms of a process, clearly there is something other than merit at work across the board at Ivy League Schools. Perhaps thats even what the harvard lawsuit was getting at. Laura we are going to get to that in the w moment with a guest who was denied a position at harvard because of what they described to be discriminatory practices. Regarding the criminality, we have tax fraud. Bank fraud. C we have people making charitable contributions, getting writeoffs for charities that didnt exist really as a charity. It existed passthrough. We dont have to debate the legal issues here. This goes right to the heart of this question that a lot of parents today are asking. Is this really worth it, this struggle to get into these top 50 schools . Is it really worth it in the end . It can be worth it depending on what your current goals are. For instance a lot of the students we work with want to go otinto Investment Banking. So for Investment Banking recruiting, you definitely want to go to a set of target schools. Those target schoolsei being the ivies. For a lot of students, we work with them in eighth or ninth grade. We basically plan their activities. An laura can i Say Something about that. We plan. I have a problem with this. We have chatted. We plan their Extracurricular Activities. How about pick up a rake . That is my extracurricular activity. Go play softball down the street. Pick up aes rake. This whole thing is a scam. If they want to play a sport or if they want to push themselves to volunteer, good for them. But when adults are telling kide youve got to have this check, this check, the kids like what . Maybe those particular kids should go to a state school or maybe they should go to an Ivy League School even though they dont know someone really wellconnected to the university. That legacy thing, im sorry. I was privileged to go to a great school. I worked my tail off to get there. I dont think my kid should have any special treatment at the school i went to. T i absolutely do not think they should. I am on the record saying that, by the way. I completely agree with you. A lot of the students we work with, they are very selfmotivated and so they will come to us and say, you know, i would likend to go to stanford or harvard and they want us to tell them literally how to get there. Laura parents want to live vicariously through their kids and this Olivia Jade Giannulli talked about her College Experience on march 8th. She was on a television show. She is the daughter of Felicity Huffman and excuse me, lorind loughlin and her husband, mossimo giannulli. Lets watch. Mostlyo my parents really wanted me to go because both of them didnt go to college and then they did all right. They did fine. Hypocrites. [laughs] so happy they made me go. Its like the coolest thing getting dms from girls. Im applying to college. What do you do . What do you do . These daughters have, they are big on instagram. Laura big social media influences and they make a lot of money. Its capitalism. Ig free market. Ive no problem with that. Its great. Is you should pursue it. They didnt not take a slot away from someone else. A couple things going on. One thing is to supply of students has outstripped the demand. You talked about foreign students, but the federal government subsidizing anybody who wants to the college means that people who shouldnt be college are going to college and thats really crowding g out legitimate competition. And quotas, the reason the scam was able to go on is that they are set aside at each of these top schools for sports and apparently there is no actual standard. They dont check whether theyre good at sports or anything like that. They let them in. Then they proceed not even participate in those ports at all. P i just wonder, theres absolutely no Quality Control the schools. Laura the foreign students are part of it. That was different from when you and i, we both went to dartmouth. Its b big and its opened up ad a lot of them pay cash. Colleges like that. Chris, theres a lot of factors. Forbes has published pieces by people who say is it worth it. You still make more money in general if you go to college than if you dont go to college. But we have this huge weight of college debt. 1. 5 trillion Outstanding College debt today. I think the average kidod was tabout 28,000, which most peoe probably will be able to pay off but a lot of people wont. What about that . What about that aspect of it . And a lot of these kids dont even e get jobs in the areas of study that they majored in. Thats another issue that keeps getting raised in forbes and beyond. Well, the group you are talking about here is elite colleges. Youre talking about the ivy league and stanford. Laura we are talking about wake forest, u texas. Its not just ivy league. Chris, its wake forest, its ut. Usc, and a number of others. I was kind of surprised to see them on the list. They are Great Schools but again, youre going to commit a federal crime. You kind of blew off the crime but youre going to commit multiple federal crimes . Maybe this is the job you do and everybody bribes everybody but its against the law to do what they did. Thats why we had 200 investigators on the case because regular kids dont get into the schools because the elite kids, coddled kids, that harmeet was talking about, gets the doors open for them where mommy daddy pay for it. Ha the taxpayers subsidize it to. I think you would want to divide the elite into, its not uniform. Theres the elite who have power and influence, and they aree already getting into schools as legacies. For example, if your name was bush, it was pretty easy to get into yale. Laura i pointed that out in the angle. Thats the first level of corruption. We are now at the actual illegal level of corruption. So probably the people who are committing these crimes were the elite who felt they didnt have access and then were tempted with an angle, which was through the sports window. Its a smaller group. Clearly its a search for access where you have none. Laura yeah, i think thats a fair point. What happens to be illegal. Harmeet, are they going to make an example out of them . Felicity huffman was trotting around the court sketches today. They need to. This is federal tax crime, wire fraud. Taking advantage of other kids. Racketeering is part of this as well for some of the participants. Laura two cooperating defendants both pled, one of the coaches and singer himself. The prosecutor said their other shoes that are going to drop as well. Laura yikes. Panel, thank you so much. Fascinating topic. And our ne pla think thats a fair point. So probably the people who are committing these crimes were the elite who felt they didnt have access and then were tempted with an angle, which was through the sports window. Its a smaller group.

The prosecutor said their other shoes that are going to drop as well. He laura yikes. Panel, thank you so much. Fascinating topic. And our next guest graduated number one from his high school. He aced 17 advanced placement classes in high school. Show off. Excelled in Extracurricular Activities and scored high in. His College Admissionsxt test. Despite that, Harrison Chen was rejected from harvard. He is supportive of a lawsuit against harvard claiming determination against asianamericans saying the College Process has created institutions that fail to reward merit. Harrison chen joins us. Harrison, when the story came out and you saw complicity of some college officials, did that surprise you at all . Not really, i guess. Laura what do you think about this . How does this make you feel after having got rejected at harvard . Harvard is not one of the schools, i believe, implicated. Not yet, harmeet says. Yale is and a number of other top schools. These are wealthy people who can pay peoplee either to take their tests. You actually took your own test, correct, harrison . You didnt pay someone to take your test . You took your test. And they had people pay or they photoshopped heads on athletic bodies and falsified athletic records. This clearly is a far cry from the meritbased system youre asking for. Definitely. I would definitely say that. Laura what are the students reaction . Any scuttlebutt on campus . Excuse me . Sorry. Laura excuse me . Sorry, i didnt get that. Laura are students reacting . I had a friend talk about it. We werent really surprised. Laura not surprised because youre used to this type of, youre used to this type of privilege being flaunted and utilized to try open doors . I guess it wastr kind of an unsaid thing that most College Students wouldnt be surprised to hear about this news. Laura unbelievable. Harmeet, it shouldnt surprise you, right . It doesnt surprise me because youve got people who have all the money in the world wand you have all these loophos that are there for exploitation. This is what smart people do. Esand desperate people. These people are desperate to get this badge, if you will, thats required to proceed in our society. Maybe it shouldnt be, but in any event, what they did was totally illegal on multiple levels. Take aside the illegality, you still to let people participating in sports just for getting into college. Thats a form of corruption. You have laura its supposed to be aboutru learning. I played three sports. I was a big athlete, loved sports. Love them. Big part of my life. Academics was always first. Academics is always first. When you look at the profile of these people, most of them are white, okay, they are taking spaces from asians. Spaces from asians. Laura this is a kind of privilege that alexandria ocasiocortez and the crowd, that they should be focusing on because this truly is the use of positions of privilege to open doors. I dont think it has anything to do with the color of your skin. It has everything to do with the money and the in some cases, celebrity. Big time financial. Willkie farr. Did you interview . Chairman of willkie farr. So many of them had two homes. Thats the level of privilege we are talking about here. Laura well, all of you whoth didnt get into one of those schools and applied, well, at least youre not in jail. Panel, thanks so much. Up next, you wont i believe it, we have another case of corruption on our college campuses. This time involving a foreign foe. And then, well, it now is semiofficial. Amtraks joe biden is said to be entering the democratic primary field in the coming weeks, but does he still have it . Up next, highlights from a truly bizarre speech the Vice President gave this morning. Stay there. Into action. The bookers. The doers. The hit that confirmation button and lets go ers because bookers know that the Perfect Place to stay. Is right there for the booking. Be a booker at booking. Com no laura more attempted cheating of the American Education system tonight, if you can believe it. We brought you the outrageous stories of birthright citizenship motels, abused primarily by the russians and chinese, but now the plot has thickened. Today the doj revealed that federal authorities arrested five people in a scheme to help chinese nationals obtain student visas in the u. S. Investigators say students hire the defendants to take the required English Proficiency test for the visas by using fake passports. The u. S. Requires foreign citizens who wish to enter the country on a temporary basis to study at a college or university to first obtain an f1 student visa. Members of the cheating ring are accused of impersonating chinese nationals atin test centers acrs southern california. Is there something in the water in california with all this cheating on tests . They face up to ten years in federal prison if convicted of conspiracy, identity theft, andd using a false passport. I appreciate the energy you showed when i got up here. Save it a little longer. I may need it in a few weeks. Be careful what you wish for. Be careful what you wish for. Laura okay, well, a congressional source revealing to the hill newspaper that joe biden is definitely jumping into the 2020 race, as he appears to allude to in the remarks we just played. The biden you saw today is not necessarily striking fear into the hearts of potential democratic opponents. He gave a bit of a rambler of a speech, one in which he repeated himself over and over and over. My name is joe biden. I am jill bidens husband. Community, community, community. Not hyperbole, not hyperbole, not hyperbole. Literally, literally, literally. Not a joke. Not a joke. Not a joke. Not a joke. Te not aa joke. Laura [laughs] okay. Wait a second. Is that a real montage . His potential entry into the 2020 race is important becauseea it means the two current democratic frontrunners nationally in iowa and New Hampshire have a combined age of a young 153 years old. It is not going to fly in this new, more diverse Democratic Party and what exactly does biden bring to the table . He was vp for eight years under president obama,ig who was grand unlimited goodwill and is beloved to this day. Tt what did they actually achieve . Well, joining me now is doug schoen, Fox News Contributor and former advisor to president bill clinton. And rochelle ritchie, former Congressional Press secretary for house democrats. Great to see both of you. Doug, lets start with you. That was an odd address. I wish we had an hour to play the full sound bites, but lets just say maybe hes a little rusty. Could that be i think hes rusty but theres also, with joe biden, laura, lets be frank, a history of lets call it rustiness, inappropriate remarks, rambling. And hes already offended this activist leftwing by saying nice things about two republicans, most recently Vice President mike pence. Theres the not ready for prime time. This is may be past prime time ready. Laura i was wondering, ed rendell, he is a beloved former governor of pennsylvania. Ed rendell is actually very excited about the biden candidacy. Lets watch. Ct we will have trouble winning if we dont get back some of those white workingclass democrats who voted for donald trump. The best person in our field without any shadow of a doubt to bring them back is joe biden. Laura rochelle is that the future of the Democratic Party . 153 years combined of the two front runners. They are still in a position to run our country, but i think biden is the hope for the Democratic Party right now. The reason why i say that is hes going to be more of a moderate candidate than what we are seeing right now from someonero such as bernie sander, who was also leading. I think the problem biden, however, will have is that people are going to continue to associate him with obama. So youre going to have a lot of obama supporters coming out saying yes, go biden. Then you can have those people they dont like obama or didnt like obama saying i dont know. So hes going to really have to put out his plan if he becomes president where he focuses laura honestly. Again, dont turn it into a thing on trump. Why not . Laura because im focusing on democrats right now. We know what you think of the republicans. There could be a drinking game with how many times joe biden uses the word literally. Its one of my pet peeves. People use the word literally incorrectly all the time but its usually the kids like in the colleges or the ones who didnt get into the colleges. He gave a rambling speech, as trump has given rambling speeches as well. I dont really think this is an indication of his ability to lead or to speak in front of a crowd. As doug said, biden is kind of a wild card. D. He kind of does his own thing in reality. I think what democrats are going to have to do is theyre going to have to take, i would say, some supporters some advice from someone like congresswoman cheri bustos who i worked for in the house and laura no one knows who that is. Im sorry. Why are they taking advice from her . With all due respect. She won a district trump won and she won it by 20 points. Laura got it. L senator gillibrand, shes also concerned because the party is changing. Everybody knows it. So is she. She started out as a moderate conservative democrat. Laura progun rights. Remember her . Ti worked for tobacco. Look, the democrats need a moderate. Ed rendell is right. The question is, is joe biden, at a time when the party is, as you say, more diverse, more oriented towards women and minorities, going to go for a man who will be 78 at the end of the campaign . Doesnt make a lot of sense, though we dont have anybody else because of the party for me has left moderates like rendell and myself far behind. Laura literally when hes criticized for saying i worked with republicans and we could get things done, thats considered completely radical. Hes a radical for saying that. Kirsten gillibrand is upset. Cod shes not upset about her own problem with the Sexual Harassment scandal in her office but she is upset about Something Else. Watch. Th does it worry you to see the top three being white guys . Yeah. I aspire for our country to recognize the duty of our diversity. At some point in the future, i hope more people of color not only aspire and win the presidency, because thats what makes america so extraordinary. We are all of that. We are everything. I think a more inclusive america is a stronger america. Laura is that, is that, is that it . I dont believe in identity politics, and i think in this election, people need to vote bfor who they think is the best candidate. Nd dont vote for someone because they are black. Dont vote for someone because they are white or a man or a woman. Kirsten gillibrand, shes the she said she wanted more than s50 of congress to be made upf women. She really does pander into this sort of identity politics that i dont agree with at all. Laura i want to take a trip down memory lane because when i was a few years out of yllege, joe biden ran for president. Lets watch. I do it with incredible reluctance, and it makes me angry. Im angry with myself for having been put in the position, put myself in the position of having to make this choice. Laura his choice at that point was to drop out because he had plagiarized a book by neil kinnock. It shows you how long these guys been around. I could make the argument, give a new person a try. You are a little long in the tooth. I think thats what democratic primary voters are inclined to do. The problem is they are not really electable. He is more electable but hes going to have a tough time getting nominated, laura. Harris is a biden and harris is a winning ticket. Laura im going to make a prediction, bidenbeto. Is nancy pelosi losing control of her own party . Doug was referencing it. How the radical newcomers are taking the career congresswoman to the brink in a push for impeachment. Congressman devin nunes here to react next. Trelegy 123 trelegy with trelegy and the power of 123, im breathing better. Trelegy works 3 ways to. Open airways,. Keep them open.

Trelegy 123 save at trelegy. Com. No no laura the Democratic Party becoming even more divided as far left lawmakers continue to break with Speaker Nancy Pelosi onon her opposition to impeachig the president. Do you agree with nancy pelosi . I think ive already made that very clear. I know a lot of members in the caucus have a different opinion. But thats why we caucus. Do you have a different opinion . I happen to, yes. Im confident the impeachment should go forward. Laura here with reaction, california congressman devin nunes. Congressman, is pelosi losing control of her party at this point . I would look at it as more of a tactical move. Nancy pelosi definitely wants te impeach the president. They just want to find more evidence. So she is taking out of position that ultimately i think she will come around if they do in fact find their mythical animal they are looking for on collusion, obstruction, or any of trumps business deals. I see it as a tactical move. I wouldnt read a lot into it other than that its something they normally do. Shes just saying something publicly that privately she probably is not saying to her members. Laura the congressman into the tactical play. Very interesting. Your colleague, house intel chair adam schiff, has spent the better part of two years claiming thef president was in bed with the russians, right . Theres clear evidence on the issue of collusion. For people who wonder what does collusion look like, bob mueller has told us. Have democrats found any evidence of collusion . Yes, we have. Laura wow, this is amazing. He had evidence, but given all that he laid out, congressman nunes, it was surprising to hear schiff offer this. What will be necessary to make an impeachment of bipartisan process would have to be extraordinarily clear and compelling. I dont foreclose the possibility that the Mueller Investigation will produce that or that our own will, but i think the speakers absolutely right. Laura is he part of this tactical kind of underplaying this now because they dont think mueller is going to deliver all the goods . Or is there Something Else going on . They have been all for impeachment. If they really believed the president of the United States is being controlled by the enenlin, this is what theyve said. This is what they promised mueller would produce. This is why we spent tens of millions of dollars of american taxpayer money to prove collusion. So now that they are moving off of that, i wouldnt take it as that they are giving up. Remember, they have opened up an entire investigation where they are going to supposedly go after all of trumps businesses. I think what this is is a tactical pullback from mueller, and theyre going to go once again out drilling wells looking for the oil, the gold, whatever you want to call it. Laura congressman, i want to move on to another startling development with the hillary, you know, nonprosecution of hillary and the private email server, destruction of emails anand so forth. Lisa pages full testimony, her transcript was released today. I think it was congressman collins who pushed for that and heres a part of what she said. She said we had multiple conversations with the Justice Department about bringing a gross negligence charge meaning against hillary thats the advice we got from the department. They did not think it was constitutionally vague and not sustainable. In other words, they discussed charging hillary but justice said no, no, no that wont work. What do the American People need to understand about just that one excerpt . Well, lets just take other cases that are very similar. We have many cases where you have sailors, for example, who took some pictures that appeared to be fun pictures but they had toclassified equipment in the picture. They got kicked out of the navy and sentenced. Multiple examples where somebody takes classified information accidentally. They get prosecuted. This was done on purpose, private server, emails being sent to the private server. The private server disappears. Hater emails show up that are classified. Any person in the military or in the intelligence agencies would have been fired or even worse, put in jail. Those are the facts. Laura i think what happens is our viewers watch this. They have seen this all laid out over the last two years plus, congressman. Then they get demoralized because they say all this stuff happens, going back to what they were accusing kavanaugh of, leaks from feinsteins office it looks like. No repercussions and no repercussions in a case where regular americans, military men and women, get prosecuted and get the book thrown at them. But again, going back to what we talked about earlier in theed show, the College Admission scam, people seem to get away with the stuff. So people get discouraged. Do you have confidence that the new attorney general, bill barr, should he and will he look into this . Look, i hear it every day, but i want to give your viewers and use some hope. There are people here in l. Shington every day going brick by brick trying to bust down through this wall. Look, weve been doing this for two years. G the House Intelligence Committee republicans, everything weve done is now being proven to be true. Everything the democrats have done and said in the reports memos that haves put out have proven to be false. You have them now changing their tactics from were going to go down the impeachment road to now Something Else. We continue to work on the House Intelligence Committee, we will be making several criminal referrals and we hope that the Justice Department will take these up. Laura when is that going to happen . When are those criminal referrals going to be made . I would guess sometime in the next two, three, four weeks. Wed like to see whats in the mueller report. I would also remind you, laura, that we are going to have a deposition from both Christopher Steele and david kramer. These are two witnesses that either pled the fifth or wouldnt come to present before the congress. Laura okay, well, we are waiting with baited breath because this is just a joke. Youre always trying to lay out the facts for us and we really appre s aleftw ca week there comie sm w look double l spoke at por p st this mornw current jackals onngngeentthhari i would guess sometime in the next two, three, four weeks. Wed like to see whats in the mueller report. I would also remind you, laura, that we are going to have a deposition from both Christopher Steele and david kramer. These are two witnesses that either pled the fifth or wouldnt come to present before the congress. Laura okay, well, we are waiting with baited breath because this is just a joke. Youre always trying to lay out the facts for us and we really appreciate it, congressman. A lot more to get to tonight. Updates on the storyt, out of Portland State that we brought you last week where a conservative speaker was shut down, the most disgusting display of rudeness and just leftwing usual alinskyite tactics. New details on the Jussie Smollett case. Plus, as President Trump is attacked for questioning Climate Change, lets speak to a man who has spent his entire life dispelling certain climate myths. Stay there. No no shannon there is new video tonight of Jussie Smollett ahead of his court date later this week on 16 federal charges connected to his hate crime hoax. The empire actor appeared in the Chicago Court room to show his confidence in his innocence. As the judge determines whether cameras should be allowed in the courtroom going forward, neither state nor smolletts defense team objected to the request made by the media. Smolletts Attorney Says they want everyone to hear the real story. We welcome cameras in the courtrooms so that the public and the media can see the actual evidence and what we believe is actually going to be the lack of evidence against mr. Smollett and we look forward to complete transparency and the truth coming out. Laura excellent. Good for us and you. Now despite the federal indictment, many highprofile individuals are Still Standing by jussie. Queen latifah, tyler perry, even Maxine Waters have either doubled down on their support or refused to comment following the latest revelation. We will stay on this story. And we also have an update on the story we told you about last week about that antifreespeech thug on a certain college campus. Protesters with cowbells of course interrupted that conservative blogger as he spoke at Portland State university during a College Republicans meeting. We reached out to 17 people at that university to come on our show last thursday to provide a statement to us about free speech on campus, what they are doing to protect it. Only the Media Relations department ever got back to us. As promised, we followed up on the story and we asked u portlad state officials today if there have been any arrests or any kind of action taken against that protester. Well, we received another statement. The individual who disrupted the meeting is not a current student at Portland State. If he was a student, he would be subject to psus student code of conduct that has sanctions for violating rules governing student conduct. Now remember, police stood by for an hour while this man tried to derail a conservative event. The University Says that protester didnt break any laws. Freespeech experts howevers still beg to differ. And after a prominent greenpeace canada member took climateid alarmists to task this morning on fox friends, President Trump quoted him on twitter. In response, the media immediately were like jackals on the president. The independent u. K. Blaring trump repeats false claims. Cnn headline called the president s tweet his latest denial of science. Huffington post claims trump tirrots antiscience misinformation. But is that accurate . We put that question to a man who studied Climate Change for 35 years. Greg wrightstone is a geologist ands author of the book inconvenient facts, the science that al gore does not want you to know. It should be noted that apple approved an app that he built for this book, but then they pulled it down. Greg, i want to begin this, with dire warnings about carbon. The United Nations issued a warning that the concentration of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere was at levels not seen in 3 million years. Thats a long time, greg. No that sounds scary. Why are you denying the impact of this . You denier. Yeah, well, the fact of the matter is we increased Carbon Dioxide by about 120 parts per million since the beginning of the industrial revolution. We are a little over 400 now. To put that in perspective, throughout its history prior to our current period, the average co2 levels on earth were 2600 parts per million. Six and half times what they are right now and we have thrived. So this is really a minor increase in Carbon Dioxide. It needs to be put in the long term perspective and we see its really just a blip. The other thing is that when im talking around the country, my talks usually center around how rising temperatures and increasing co2 are benefiting the earth and humanity. Laura greg, i also want to get your thoughts on the idea that we will see massive famines because of Climate Change. Here is bill nye the science guy. You denier. Yeah, well, the fact of the matter is we increased carbon heg. Ide by about 120 parts per f million since the beginning of the industrial revolution. We are a little over 400 now. To put that in perspective, throughout its history prior to our current period, the average co2 levels on earth were 2600 parts per million. Six and half times what they are right now and we have thrived. So this is really a minor increase in Carbon Dioxide. It needs to be put in the long term perspective and we see its really just a blip. The other thing is that when im talking around the country, my talks usually center around how rising temperatures and increasing co2 are benefiting the earth and humanity. We have seen tremendous benefits from increasing co2. Co2 fertilization effect is benefiting the land. Laura greg, i also want to get your thoughts on the idea that we will see massive famines because of Climate Change. Here is bill nye the science guy. The agriculture in north america is going to have to move north into what wouldd nominally be canada. We dont have the railroads and roads to get food from that area to where we need it around the world. The longer we mess around and not address the problem, the tre difficult its going to be. Laura are you ready to tow fields in saskatchewan . Come on. I dont think so. What we have seen is what hes doing and its important to look at this, a lot of what we hear from people like bill nye is speculation about what might look at this, a lot of what we hear from people like bill nye is speculation about what might happen 30, 50, or 80 years in the future based on failed climate models that predate global warming. We know that throughout human history, warming periods like we are in now and yes we are in a warming period, its been warming for over 300 years. Those warming periods were hugely beneficial, with bountiful crops, bountiful food. It was the cold periods that were really bad in between. Thats when famine occurs. Completely opposite of what bill nye is telling you. Laura really quick. They claim that its not just famines we need to worry about but massive droughts too. Heres a nasa climate scientist. In our projections what were saying is that with Climate Change many of these type of droughts will likely last for 20, 30, sometimes even 40 yearsd these droughts really represent events that nobody in the history of the United States has ever had to deal with. Laura okay, nasa is never wrong. Really quick, greg. They are wrong here. If you have my app, you can see. I look at the massive a droughts of the 20th century and weve seen mostnd of those occurred before 1960. These were the really bad droughts, and they are in decline. Laura well be right back. We appreciate that. I hope apple reconsiders and puts your app back up. Well be back with the last bite. Tech vo this teacher always puts her students first. Student i did mine on volcanoes.

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez ran into a buzz saw today. Wells fargo be held responsible for the damages incurred by Climate Changed into the financing of fossil fuels . I dont know how you calculate that. What about the cleanup of the leaks . Im not aware. The leaks are so scattered with the Dakota Access pipeline you are describing. The point was the bank didnt build the pipeline which is what he said. We didnt build it. We just financed it. We did our own risk assessment.
