Came from a lab and may have been covered up. Fox and friends first continues right now. Good morning to you. You are watching fox and friends first. Todd we begin with the build up to todays highstakes summit between President Biden and russian president Vladimir Putin as relations between washington and moscow sink to new lows. Jillian america reports going to john roberts, great to see you this morning. The top of the of this meeting, we will bring that onscreen, things like cybersecurity, Election Interference, discussion of things like Climate Change. Listen to what Lindsey Graham has to say is of utmost importance. I hope President Biden will tell putin theres another cyber attack on American Business interests after your infrastructure. We need to go on the offense. We lost deterrence when it comes to the Biden Administration. And lost respect. Jillian when you are senator graham say we lost respect, how important is it the president gets this right to show russia and others why we should be respected on the world stage. It is important for an american president to get a Summit Meeting with russia right which is one of the reasons President Biden is avoided joint Press Conference after what is scheduled to be a four our meeting with Vladimir Putin. These things can sometimes go off the rails and something said during the Press Conference could be the take away from the entire summit. Much of this will be Behind Closed Doors was the only time we will see the two years together is at the beginning when they take a photograph together and allow the pool in, russian and us pool, small group of photographers and reporters, to the very beginning of their bilateral meeting which could probably last all of two minutes or so and then we will find out from either side when they hold solo Press Conferences afterwards what was discussed but what President Biden is going into this hoping to do is restore some predictability and stability as he says to the relationship Vladimir Putin has said he is looking forward to a relationship that is less impulsive than the one he had with the last president but dont forget even though donald trump was very tough on russia when it came to sanctions and trying to kill the lord stream 2 pipeline donald trump did have an appreciation for the fact that Vladimir Putin had such a strong hand over russian politics. President biden sees Vladimir Putin differently, as a Model Line Actor who does not have the interests of america in mind and probably his prime interest is staying in power himself, there is good reason to believe Vladimir Putin will still be there until 2030. There is a high bar today which is why the white house is lowering expectations and we are not going to see these two together or get a measure of how they are beside each other. Todd 30 seconds on the final question, your tapped into the white house. Do you get the sense the white house itself is confident that biden is up to the task . Weve had a number of experts giving their opinions on the matter but is the white house confident President Biden will delivered today . If they are not they wont say it publicly. The fact that there was no joint Press Conference does say a lot. The white house, we dont want to give putin a Platform Standing next to the american president but if youre a tough confident american president , he has a message for russia, you want to be seen publicly standing next to that leader delivering that message. Jillian thank you. We will be watching all morning. Lets bring in former cia station chief dan hoffman who spent a number of years in moscow. Good to see you this morning. What topic is at the top of your list that you think needs to be talked about and needs to be talked about in a serious manner . First of all the summit is an opportunity for President Biden to emphasize the redlines of the United States. Putin is on the offensive. Banning chemical weapons against his own people both in russia and overseas, launched Cyber Attacks, allowed Cyber Hacking groups to target critical infrastructure, Holding American citizens without due process, a litany of issues where National Security interests are in confrontation and i expect those issues to be discussed. I know the Biden Administration want to get to predictability and stability but to take a page from president reagans a book you dont get there without demonstrating strength, you dont get peace without demonstrating you can defend yourself. Rob what does putin want out of this meeting . Weve talked about what the us wants, what does putin . Putin is gotten what he wants which is to be perceived as playing on a level Playing Field with the United States of america and that enhances his stature at home and abroad and russias parliamentary elections, he wants to portray himself as the only one who can defend russia, the besieged fortress, that is a benefit to him and his regime security. Jillian lets listen to what President Biden said ahead of the summit. I have found that he is, as they say, when we used to play ball, a worthy adversary. If he chooses not to cooperate and acts the way he has in the past relative to Cyber Security we will respond in kind. Jillian a worthy adversary. What do you make of that language . I would not describe him as a worthy adversary, a kgb operative in the kremlin with Prior Experience serving in the kgb in the soviet union and also served as director of Russias Federal Security Service responsible for mounting attacks against russian citizens and spying on foreigners including americans. Lets not forget allegations of russia being responsible for attacks in our people, microwave attacks, he is someone who is a great threat to our nation, we should portray them as such. And talk about them as such. It is a shame we dont have a Press Conference. The Biden Administration is playing to lose, not to win. Nothing would be better for the United States and have President Biden will countering all of putins arguments publicly a Press Conference. A missed opportunity. Todd fill in the blank, todays meeting will be considered a success. The success of this meeting is extraordinarily modest, not looking at any reset in a relations or anything like that, at the very most we will see a communique where diplomatic relations are restored and staff returned to normal, Working Groups talk about areas of confrontation or collaboration, dont expect more than that, lets see how President Biden does the Press Conference, if he strays from the script we can expect Vladimir Putin is there to speak to influence, not inform public opinion. Jillian playing not to lose, good to see you as always, thanks for joining us. Coming up, the family of a marine prison in russia will join fox and friends with their plea to the Biden Administration to bring him home. That is live in the 6 00 hour, you dont want to miss it.

Lets workflow it. Servicenow. Jillian Fox News Exclusive Interview former cdc director blames scientific arrogance for early doubts about the wuhan lab experience. Todd why he believes covid 19 emerged from that lab. Reporter infield told doctor mark siegel that is one reason the theory was ignored for so long, the who investigation concluded a leak was extremely unlikely but redfield says he is skeptical about that. Highly compromise, clearly they were incapable of compelling china to adhere to the agreements on global health, they allowed china to define the group of scientists to investigate. Thats not consistent with their role. Jillian two House Republicans introducing a bill that would sanction chinese officials until they allow for a new probe. There needs to be an open, transparent and independent evaluation of what happened at the Wuhan Institute of virology. The chinese have not been willing to do that and the only way to make that happen is to be aggressive and direct in what we expect out of china. Jillian President Biden demanded the Intelligence Community redouble its efforts in investigating the virus origins and in a joint statement with the eu called for a new probe free from interference.

Joining as is her sister, her brotherinlaw, richard and her attorney, thank you for being here. Appreciate your time. Last time we spoke you made inroads with police and were finally on the same page and it appears to be that is the case. Now they are asking you for more help. Right. They are doing updates, having communication with them. Family and friends, we dont know. They just want to confirm whatever they need in the investigation. We are working together with the department and happy that we do have open communication with them. We hope things go faster but we have faith in them. We have to be patient. That is what they tell us. Jillian you wish you had these answers five months ago. Can you tell me, you guys had some concerns. What are your concerns at this point . We are working hand in hand. Our frustration is concern we miss him tremendously. That is one thing. Working towards that sometimes, we want to do that. If people work with us, one day out of the week that is all we are asking. Almost 5 or 6 months we cant even talk to her by skype. He knows we are a close family. No one talks about that. That is our frustration. Jillian completely understandable as i bring in billy. For people at home watching who dont know the back story of this, maia went missing in january, mother of 3 kids, larry, her husband, i know it has been frustrating for the family not to be able to see their nieces and nephews and they havent seen them since she went missing. Have you had any correspondence . Know. Larry is not communicating with the courts through his attorney, the family asked for when they call grandparents rights in california. It is unconscionable what larry is doing with the children not to mention his involvement with maias disappearance. I share the familys concern the children have not seen them for over 5 months. It is unbelievable. I would reiterate it is a Great Team Effort with community, police and the family you are talking to right now. Jillian the community has done so much. When i was in california to talk to you guys i was blown away by everything the community has done for your family. What do you want to say to Community Members out there and if your sister is out there what is your message .

Almost 2 hours away. People open their house to us and let us stay at their home with the community. We thank them a lot. We ask their continued support. Dont know how long it is going to take.
