Elizabeth thanks for joining us. Youre watching the fox business network. The face falcon launch would be first time in nine years, actually two u. S. Astronauts would have launched from u. S. Soil. Is it will mick history when it does launch this saturday. We have retired fourstar general jack keane. So great to have you on again. This would have been the first private Company Launch with nasa spacex involved. What is your reaction when you saw this happening with nasa and spacex . That is historic in and of itself. I think the private Public Partnership is ideal in moving forward. There is so much that the private sector is already doing in space and makes just a lot of sense to partner with the United States government. And it is wonderful to see the United States back into space again launching out of the United States. Well wait three days before well actually do it, possibly on sunday and were quite used to it now for an entire generation plus the tempermental weather we have in florida to be sure. But i think it is very significant, liz. I thought it was a huge strategic mistake on the part of the Obama Administration to back away from our Space Program and essentially shut it down after president bush had invested for five years in going back to the moon. I think it was a disappointing lack of imagination on the Obama Administrations part. I mean here we have the oldest and most open democracy in the world that was leading the world in Space Exploration and thats who you want, the International Community wants us to do that. Why . Because we have the right set of values to do that. Were doing it to benefit all mankind, not just the United States. We know sadly, at some point, it is coming very soon, space will be very weaponized and it is our adversaries who are forcing us to do that but this is about helping mankind in general. Were on the right path here. It will be historic. We have got to go to the moon and then go to mars. That is the kind of imagination that i think the American People will welcome, not to say of the Huge International prestige and pride that comes with the United States leading in Space Exploration. Elizabeth you know the president promised to reassert americas push back into space. He signed a nearly 740 billiondollar defense spending bill back in december. It created a space force. 6th branch. He was roundly mocked, ridiculed for the space force. The president says it is a matter of national security. Youre talking about vision looking up and out to to the sts and broaden our look into new space heroes. Nasa administrator Jim Bridenstein said quote were launching american astronauts from american rockets and american soil. It. There is no doubt about it. Probably more people will witness it than normal because were sheltering down even though it will be a weekend. I have seen one of these launches myself years ago, you know with, humans in it. Ill tell you what, it is a gripping experience. It is absolutely thrilling. I cant imagine what it is like to sit on top of a rocket and be blown off of a launchpad into space and the adrenaline that must be inside of our astronauts in doing that. It is absolutely amazing. I give him so much credit, for putting their life in the hands of literally hundreds of scientists and engineers when they sit there and anticipate that rocket first lifts them off the launchpad. What is moment it is. What a moment for america to witness that event again. As we probably got a little used to it in the past. We got a whole new generation here that can get excited about space. An youre right, the space force has electrified young peoples imagination in america. And some of that certainly developed years ago by hollywood and others in terms of the magic of it, but yeah, this is harsh reality. We need a space force to deal with our adversaries who fully intend to use space to bring harm to america. So is cold eyed, military capability that we need to have. Elizabeth but you make a great point that, you know, america once flew nine crude missions with astronauts to outer space. When jfk set hearts and minds alight, set them on fire with the vision of going into outer space and inspired and as you said electrified generations of children to come, about being space heroes. It happened under Richard Nixon and ensuing administrations to get america and entire world lifted up out of whatever milieu, whatever were doing right now to look to outer space and have that vision and imagination. Youre right i think it galvanizes hearts and minds to step out of ourselves to look to new horizons, right, general . Yeah. We got night as a business proposition. The thought was Previous Administration did a cost benefit analysis. We had some setbacks and horrific debts to be sure, what is the cost. But we saw that same administration launch hundreds of billions of dollars into shove ready programs that never materialized. Lack ever imagination drove that decision. Not everything was dollars and cents. If it was dollars and cents, the United States, explorers wouldnt have come here. They themselves at risk to find the new world and courage they had to do Something Like that. This is america at its best. I have always believed when we took on space as an exploration and succeeded so magnificently doing it. It is good to see us back. Elizabeth general, great to have you back on the show. Were going to see you again later in the show. Well talk about what is going on with iran moving into venezuela fuel oil, possibly military hardware. Hezbollah and hamas may be now active in venezuela. Well talk to you later in the show. You come back in just a 2nd. General jack keane there. Lets bring in former nasa astronaut jose hernandez. Were excited to him on the show. Astronaut hernandez was Mission Specialist in the International Space station where the falcon 9 is headed. He is the first nasa astronaut coming from a mexican immigrant family. Great to have you on, jose. Your reaction to the spacex launch with two nasa astronauts . What was your first reaction when you saw this incredible feat . First of all, good afternoon, liz, and thanks for having me on the program. I know what the astronauts are going through because i too suffered a launch delay due to bad weather back in in 2009 on stsof 129 on Space Shuttle discovery. It is a disappointing but the run being joke you train for so many years, twoday delay, threeday delay will not make much difference. So what you do have is, though you do have a lot of adrenaline and it takes a while for that, for you to calm down once you get off the ship and say, hey, we have to do it again on saturday. Elizabeth yeah. You wonder how you will sleep for two more nights with all that adrenaline. Spacexs elon musk praised the two senate heroes robert beck ken and douglas hurry for nerves of steel, they were cool as cue bumper cucumbers. This crew of dragon capsule sits atop a falcon 9 rocket. A Million Pounds of propellant, quickly in three minutes hits supersonic speed breaks through mach one, mach two, mach three, breaking through the sound barrier, breaking the speed of sound. What was it like to be traveling like that, what was it like to be on the International Space station . It was great. You go from zero Miles Per Hour at tminus zero seconds, eight 1 2 minutes later youre traveling over 17,500 miles an hour, experiencing 3gs of force. It is like a 500pound gorilla stepping on your chest. When you reach main engine cut off atminutes, 30 seconds, the 500pound gorilla disappears and now youre floating in space. It is the best eticket ride disney could ever hope for. Elizabeth jose tell us what it means for you, for your family to immigrate into america from mexico . It was, its a great story. Im first generation american. I consider myself an american. Im proud to say that i was born in stockton, california where im living here now. We were a typical migrant farm working family. My family used to come to work nine months in picking fruits and vegetables and go to the home state in central mexico for three months. During that time period i was born here in california. We finally settled in california and due to this great Education System we have here in the u. S. I was able to follow the american dream. My father taught me that hard work and education is always a good combination. And thats what i put forth. And ever since i saw gene cernan walk on the surface of the moon i knew i wanted to be as a 10yearold i wanted to be an astronaut. Elizabeth well you did it, jose. Thank you so much for coming on the show. Great to have you on, sir. Youre an american hero. Thanks for the service to the country. Great to have you. Next up, thank you so much.

Newlyrevealed Text Messages obtained by investigative journalist and folks news contributor john solomon, shows former fbi Counter Intelligence agent peter strzok, lisa page, fbi lawyer, former fbi lawyer, and then fib fbi assistant director william prestop worried about sharing information about the trump probe with the Obama Administration. Strategic analysts are now asking, does the concern in these Text Messages reflect their concern that a president barack obama had ill will and negative feelings towards Michael Flynn . Was that the reason the investigation into Michael Flynn was kept open when the fbi wanted to shut it down . Lets break all of this down with former fbi assistant, Deputy Assistant director danny coulson. Danny, your reaction to the news about the Text Messages. Great to have you on. What is your take about this . The take is they shouldnt been talking to them about it anyway. The case agents said there was no case and strzok told them not to close it. Was it the context, after the white house, before or during their contact with the white house . So there is a lot of questions here. The fbis not supposed to be a showandtell organization. Where you run up, say, look what were doing. They were way off the reservation and should have never done that stuff anyway. I have serious concerns about their behavior here and of course in other areas too. Elizabeth lets go through the Text Messages that john solomon got. January third, 2017, peter strzok texted lisa page saying fbi top official William Priestap like us is concerned with oversharing. Doesnt want jim clapper giving cr cuts to the white house. All political. Shows our hand and potentially makes enemies. Seems like peter strzok was referring to the evidence into the investigation into Michael Flynn. Lisa page texts back, yeah, but keep in mind we whether going to put that in the document on friday with potentially larger distribution than just the dni. Peter strzok texts back, should we, particularly to the entirety of the lame duck u. S. Intelligence community with partisan axes to grind . Looks like the comments that strzok is making just shows our hand. You know what i mean . Just seems like, there is a big backstory that the American Voter is not seeing, what was going on with the fbi communicating with the obama white house. Do you think that president barack obama wanted to keep the flynn case open and when the fbi wanted to shut it down . Because he was the one who got flynn fired as his dni back in 2014 . What do you think . What i think is, follow the rules. The rules say the fbi does not talk about pending investigations and there is no other reason to talk about that case except for politics and they were way off the reservation. They were dead wrong and they should have known better. Elizabeth you know, danny, listen to attorney general william barr talk to cbss Catherine Herridge about what happened about top officials at the fbi in the Obama Administration he says were so wedded to the narrative, so aligned and wedded to the narrative about trump russia conspiracy and the probe into Michael Flynn they drove everything to a preset conclusion. Watch this. These are very smart people who were working in the special counsels office and in senior levels of the fbi so what drove them here . Well i think one of the things you have to guard against both as a prosecutor and i think as an investigator is that, if you get too wedded to a particular out come and pursuing a particular agenda, you close your eyes to anything that sort of doesnt fit with your preconception and, i think thats probably the phenomenon were looking at here. Elizabeth danny, your reaction . Totally agree. Follow the evidence. Dont come to a conclusion or some principle and then adapt the evidence to that. Follow the evidence, left it take it where it goes. Then present it to a grand jury, if you got a case you got it. Elizabeth all right. Danny coulson, come back soon. We love having you on.
