Policy. When we host the summit of democracy early in my administration, to rally the nation, to defend democracy globally, to push back the authoritarianism, it will be more important to shore up our own foundations. Theres no longer a bright line between foreign and domestic policy. Every action we take and our conduct abroad, we must take with american Working Families in mind. Advancing the Foreign Policy for the middle class has to center on economic renewal. Thats why i immediately put forth the American Rescue plan. Pull us out of this economic crisis. Thats why i signed an Executive Order strengthening our buy american policies last week. Its also why i worked with congress to make farreaching investments in research and development of trans formidable technologies. These investments will maintain jobs and ensure all americans share in the dividends. If we invest in ourselves and our people, if we fight to ensure American Business is our position to compete and win on the global stage, if the rules of International Trade are not stacked against us, if our workers and Intellectual Property are protected, theres no country on earth, not china or any other country on earth that can match us. Investing in our diplomacy is not something we do because its the right thing to do for the world, we do it in order to live in peace, security and prosperity. We do it because its in our own selfinterests. We strengthen our alliances, we amplify our power. We disrupt threats before they reach our shores. We create new markets for products and reduce the likelihood of instability, violence and mass migration. When we strengthen Health Systems and far regions of the world, we reduce the risk of future pandemics that could then ten our people and our economy. When we defend equal rights of people the world over of women and girls, lgbtq individuals and indigenous communities and people with disabilities, the people of every ethnic background and religion, were also ensuring that those rights are protected for our own children here in america. America cannot afford to be absent any longer on the world stage. I come today to the State Department and agencies old and historic as the nation itself, because diplomacy has been important to america to right its own destiny. Its the vicious of plan to help prevent the world from floundering on the wreckage of war. The fashions of Eleanor Roosevelt that had the audacious idea of universal rights that belong to all. The leadership of diplomats of every stripe doing the daily work of engagement, created the very idea of a free and interconnected world. Were a country that does big things. America diplomacy makes it happen. Our administration is ready to take up the mantel and lead again. Thank you all and may got bless you and protect our troops, our diplomats and Development Experts and all americans serving in harms way. Thank you all. Martha so there you have it. About 25 minutes in length. President biden speaking about the threats that america faces from our enemies abroad. Laying out his plans to reverse an egregious Foreign Policy of America First. A lot to break down. Also this hour, were waiting the house vote that could strip Marjorie Taylor greene of her committee assignments. She made an impassioned plea. Well show you what she had to say. Bret baier will join us with that and Brian Kilmeade and the shifting story of what aoc experienced during the capitol riots. And a showdown in chicago as the mayor says shes had enough hoff what some are equating to child abuse keeping kids in isolation and out of their schools. She has heavy words for the Chicago Teachers Union best known recently for their dance video. Well talk about that coming up with bill bennett, Dan Henninger and jason riley. More on the implications of the Teachers Union and parents over return to school. Also, were going to begin by circling back to what you just heard. Former Deputy National security adviser to the Trump Administration and marc thiessen, aei scholar and fox news contributors. Welcome. Great to have you here this afternoon. Good to be with you. Martha there wasnt a lot of discussion about Foreign Policy throughout this campaign. Usually theres a debate devoted to Foreign Policy. We never saw that happen. At this point, americans are getting a sense for what Foreign Policy will look like under the Biden Administration. We got the first glimpse of that today as the president laid out some of his thinking at the State Department in his first speech. So lets start with you. What is the headline here in your mind . Back to the future, i guess. The Biden Administration will be just like the obama administration, just like the bush administration. Theyre going to go back to relying on international organizations, going back to underwriting the Security Commitments of our allies, to underwriting the economy of our competitors when we can no longer afford it and they no longer need it. What i heard my takeaway from this, america youre getting out the checkbook one more time. Youre going to pay for everybody and by the way, we cant afford it, so were going to have to borrow it. Guess who were borrowing it from, china. So if im in beijing, im having a pretty good afternoon. Martha i just want the control room to let me know if we have the President Trump sound bite from when he gave a similar speech. Because some of this sounded a little bit like he was talking about an America First policy for a moment here. Heres what President Trump said and i want to hear what President Biden just said about middle class Foreign Policy. Watch this. Every decision on trade, on taxes, on immigration, on Foreign Affairs will be made to benefit American Workers and american families. We must protect our borders from the ravages of other countries, making our product, stealing our companies and destroying our jobs. No longer a bright line between foreign and domestic policy. Every action we take in our conduct abroad must take with american Working Families in mind. Advancing a forry policy for the middle class demands urgent focus on economic renewal. Martha he talked about manufacturing in the United States, marc. Sounds to me as if theres some poll testing on America First. Sound like that is at least one of the Catch Phrases that will be implemented by the Biden Administration or they like the ideas behind it. First of all, every american president is their job is to protect american interest. Thats what the purpose of american Foreign Policy is. I dont think joe biden is in any different in that. We may disagrees the ways to do that. There was a myth that trump was some sort of a Rabbit Isolationist that was pulling back our borders and pulling us back in our borders. He talked like that but his actions were different. Think about the world that he inherited from the obamaBiden Administration. Isis had a caliphate in iraq and syria. Syria was using chemical weapons against their own people. Iran was on the march across the middle east. What did he do . He doubled down and drove isis out of their caliphate, he enforced obamas red line in syria, launching strikes twice. He put sanctions on iran, moved the u. S. Embassy to jerusalem and israel and recognized israeli sovereignty on the Golan Heights and succeeded in achieving not one, not two, not three but four arab israeli peace accords. Thats through a policy of peace through strength. So the idea that somehow were that America Trump Reoriented american Foreign Policy to a more insular Foreign Policy is wrong. Maybe his rhetoric why that was but he was a very successful internationalist in the tradition of republican president s going back a long time. So i just think its a myth. Martha one of the moments you know, k. T. Better than anybody that all of the governments Around The World listen to this speech. They try to read the tea leaves of it and what kind of message hes sending. Here he is talking about russia and the opposition leader, navalny and he has been a real threat to vladimir putin. Watch this. Clear to president putin, in a manner different from my predecessor, the days the United States rolling over in the face of the russias aggressive actions, interfering with our elections, cyber attacks, poisoning its citizens are over. Martha what do you think, k. T. . How is that read . You know, great words. What are the deeds . Hes talking about china. Were going to stand up to china. What does that mean . Youre going to have International Meetings . Standing up to russia . What about President Trumps increasing rebuilding the american defenses . What about the singular oh and then there was trumps economic policy. Energy independence. That was bankrupting russia, like iran and making america competitive in manufacturing. They just rolled that back. In two weeks, theyre going to Return America to dependency on middle east oil, going to guarantee american economics and manufacturing is not going to be competitive and guaranteeing very high oil prices. So the words sound terrific but the actions dont match the words. Thats the problem ive had all along. President trump said a lot of stiff. Silly stuff. But look what he did. He stood up to russia, ukraine, stood up to russia financially and stood up to china and said to the europeans pay your fair share. And we want a Reciprocal Trade Agreement around the globe. Im not sure where joe biden goes with this except a lot of Job Opportunities for diplomats because theres going to be more meetings. Doesnt seem theyll have any leverage, which is what you need with negotiating. Negotiating without leverage is begging. Thats the position well be in. It comes down to the test. The tests are what is before every president of the United States, right . You have to see how the new president responds to those tests and challenges. Well see how he does and where that goes and have you back. Thank you very much, marc and k. T. Great to have you with us today. Also breaking right now, Marjorie Taylor greene is one of more than 200 gop house members. Shes gotten a lot of attention lately and shes become a household name. Now the Democratic House campaign arm claims that she represents all republicans. Shes using her controversial past statements to sweep the whole party with her views. Qanon, a Conspiracy Theory born online took over the republican party. Sent followers to congress. Martha so today the member that prior to her election posted qanon support and other wild Conspiracy Theories said this. These were words of the past. These things do not represent me. They do not represent my district and they do not represent my values. Heres what i can tell you. I am beyond grateful for this opportunity and ill tell you why. I believe in god with All Of My Heart and im so grateful to be humbled, to be reminded that im a sinner and jesus died on the cross for me. Martha joining me now, Michael Walls. A lot to talk about. Hi, martha. Martha lets start there. This ad that basically sweeps all of you with the same brush that Marjorie Taylor greene has manteled upon herself with her prior statements. Did you find her persuasive today in what she said on the floor . I want to be clear. I do not agree at all with her past statements. I mean, they were nuts, particularly when it comes to parkland, when it comes to 911, which is very personal to me as a veteran. But she has said several things. I think very genuinely. One those were those were statements of the past. Shes not made them as a member of congress and she disa vows them. She said so in front of the entire republican conference last night privately. She said so again today publicly on the floor of the house of representatives. And you know, if you look at what pelosi is looking to do, stripping her of her committees doesnt hurt anyone except her voters. That sent her here to represent them. That is really a crux of the issue. This is an issue for the voters of georgia to decide, not nancy pelosi or anyone else. Martha, look, if thats her standard of past statements or past deeds are pelosis standards, lets look at, for example, Florida DemocraticCongressman Hastings who was impeach as a federal judge before he came to congress, but the voters of South Florida sent him here and now hes on a very powerful committee, the rules committee. Its the double standard that is also at play that has given a lot of us some serious heartburn. Martha shes given a lot of serious material to her detractors. No doubt about that. I watched a number of videos today. Its no surprise that the democrat political arm is going to try to paint all of us with that brush. At the end of the day, when i stand before my voters, they know where i am on 911, they know where i am on parkland and other things. Thats the crux of it. Thats for Georgia Voters to decide. Thats her ultimate boss, We The People and our founding document. Martha so will you vote to allow her to stay on those committees, congressman . I dont think stripping her of her committees changes anything. So yeah, i will, at the end of the day. In 19 months, the Georgia Voters can decide again whether she continues to represent. That should be the ultimate arbiter. Martha what about representative liz cheney of wyoming . Shes been under threat of losing her Leadership Position. A solid overwhelming vote to maintain that position. Did you vote for her to maintain her Leadership Position . I completely have told her this, completely disagree with her on the impeachment issue. Theres no due process. We still havent had a few investigation and still learning things that happened way before the president s speech. Literally, martha, ive seen shoplifters get more due process than what the president of the United States just received. I completely disagree with her. Im glad that we had this vote. Im glad that she clarified that what she was doing and voting on was her position personally, not her position in leadership. What last me so frustrated is that while were dealing with all of this, representative greene, representative cheney, the democrats are killing energy jobs at the stroke of a person, on the verge of passing another 2 trillion when we still have one trillion unspent, changing the way we vote. Biden Just Announced a Supreme Court commission to reform the Supreme Court. You and i should be talking about that. Instead, were talking about what we call in the army this circular firing squad. We need to be united against those bad policies for the country. Im glad were moving forward. Martha i hear you and look forward to talking about that in the future. I want to press you on the vote on liz cheney. You said you disagreed with her impeachment vote. Did you vote to allow her to maintain we took our own votes. That was not a public vote. We should keep it that way for everybody there. At the end of the day, she is we have a leadership team. Kevin mccarthy was strong in asking us to keep that leadership team. We just gained over a dozen seats in the house, on the verge of having to majority in 22 and Leader Mccarthy was really adamant on that, on trust him, trust his team and be focused on getting the majority back. Representative waltz, good to have you here. Thank you. Thanks, martha. Martha lets bring in bret baier, anchor of special report. Obviously all of this goes to The Deep Division in the gop. I mean, one of the reasons this is a big story with Marjorie Taylor greene and with liz cheney is that, you know, everybody is
