. and welcome to hannity. tonight we are broadcasting live from the grand olwee opry i right here in beautiful nashville, tennessee, which is thetennes site of the fifth l patriot awards, by the way, that kicks off tomorrow. you don't want to miss it. 6:30 p.m. only on fox. and coming up, by the way,rock r the one and only kid rock right here on ou our setr set.fun. that's going to be a lot of fun. but we do begin tonight on the west coast where the president of the united states, he just wrapped i a series of high stakes meetings with the dictator of chinagh tor of, president xi. t xi now, this after months of begging and, pleading and begging and ask hissing. well, anyway, america's relationship with china has severely deteriorated since joe biden has become president. and frankly, for good reasonide china, we all know, infected the world with covid 19. disease that killed more than a million americans. there has never been any accountability. they continue to ship massive quantities , cheap, fat and allnorth am to north america. >> that is a drug that is killing 200 of our fellowlow am americans every single day. er again, never held accountable. they threaten our allies, taiwan and the philippines, constantly flying into taiwainc constantly. they conduct hostile maneuvers , our military aircraftitar in international airspace. y aircrathey confront our navy in international waters. and joe biden, nothing. and, of course, they buy cheap gas and oil from russia and iran to make them rich, rich and coal from korea.that that new axis of evil. now they steal our intellectua u . they use unfair trade practices. and our countrsetrady is frankly stupid enough to actually allowed communist chinese nationals to come into our country and buy thousands and thousand into s of acres of farmland and thousands of thousands of acres of ranchnn land and also land around our military bases. now, by the way, donald trump, he challenged them. he confronted them. he warned them. he put massive tariffs. neve.ut mr before done on them. >> and guess what? they didn't do all of this when america had a strong president.s and, of course, they spy on americans, including the bizarre spny incident where a massive floating object equipped with surveillance equipment all went for well over a week. l oryou know, traversing all acros the united states, over even our military installations, i'm pretty sure donald trump woul i d not allow that tohappen happen either and would have shot that plane that tha et air balloon down much sooner. now, there are some things that yousoonat you may not knows for starters, china's economy. it is now a fire. fir its draconian zero-covide. policies has taken a serious toll on the country. e market estat is basically in a full collapse. they've had a massive populationsically ane. and it is in a steep decline and its once growing middle class that is now imploding. as a result, china is mores than dangerous than ever. president xi is desperately lookin eg for a win and with a pathetically weak u.s. president at the hel m. well, what better time than right now? because here is joe biden from earlier today. jook, very, very, very sleepy, joe. >> i've never doubteeyd what you've told me in terms of candidate nature in which you speak. r conv i value our conversation because i think it's paramountet that you and i understand each other clearly. leader to leader with noo misconceptions or misconstrue. i we also haveca a responsibilityl to ourity to people and to work in the world to work together. we see it in our interest to do so at a critical global weto face, from climate change to counternarcotics to artificial intelligence to demand our joint effortotics >> hey, joe, i promise you, president xi, china. they don't care about climate changena don'tut clima and theyk you're stupid for paying all the money. with the paris climate accords y . now, biden followed up that performance with a very short, lackluster press conference just moments ago where he calleckluster d pre-selected reporters. >> hold on. froholdm arm.yse callelec they told me to call on joe. okay and then, of course, responded to their questions by reading pre-written answers a loo . >> how convenient. take a look. and that's. nok.w i'd like to be able to tae some questions, if i may. and i'm told that dmitri of the financial times has the first question. next question. sorry, was bloomberg. n a agreknow, we're in a situation where we agreed that fentanyl and its peak as precursors will be curbed substantiallysus. and the pill presses. that's a big that's a big ig movemmoment. i'm embarrassed, i think, at cbs, but i can't remember who was cbs. i am. sorrym cbs. it's your president. good day. sorrsoi apology. i apologize. what? got it. washingtonwhat hav post. i think that's right, mr..there >> oh, there you are. sorry. >> couldn't see my.k. got to cut joey some slack now. it's way past his bedtimise. that usually 7 p.m. eastern. and he's not used to travelingto . and to make matters worse, well, more concessions froe matm biden. >> he agreed to limit the use of artificial intelligence i technology in america's military. and china is threatening and to invade our ally, taiwan. and we're agreeinge agreei to la our military capabilities. not a good idea. expertpaties accusing biden of g up what is a massive strategic advantage and calling his deal with president xi an incrediblyd poor decision. now, let's jusect salet's juy il be kind about this. he's rather dumb, naive and stupid is , and it looks lie that he wants more multi million dollar deals with china for him and his family and his son, hunter him r. de now, when will biden ever stand up for america?is h first is even capable of makinge the right decision o. now, keep in mind what we toldsn you last night. now, just this weeightk, biden s week freed up another $10 billion for the mullahs in irans ,the number one state sponsors of terror. yeah, the same irapon involved in the biggest terrorist attack in israel's histort attacky. and there's this, by the way. there's also, after a growing number of attackthis alsr s agah our soldiers in the middle easet and that most experts believe they had a hand in. and today, a u.s. destroyer targeted during a drone attack from an iranian proxy in yemen. so how did y joe respond? e di well, as per usual, he did nothing. america's enemied noths get fave deals. and by the way, cold, hards. cash, american soldiers, they get shot at and nobody defends themshot at. is anyone surprised that biden's approval rating a st got eve bprovaln? a quinnipiac poll just came out. biden only has bull came a 37% l rating. and so tonight, as bidens is limping towards 2024, what can we expect2024 from chia in the coming weeks and the coming months? joining us now ming mon to respond, 2020, former presidential candidate, former identialr nikki haley is with us. ambassador, good to talk to you. good to have you bactalk to backk. thanks, john. it's great to be with you. and how embarrassing this all is. >> and, boy, iemt reallybarras is embarrassing. but it's not just embarrassing. it's alsassingo. i've been spending an awful lot of time in the last couple of weeks talking about all the people that are coming in through our southerthn that joe has kept open coming from iran and syria otherastern middle eastern countries. but many others are also comingr china. s many others are coming from russia. why do you think ru they're coming from those countries to this country. >> they're there's no good coming out of it. it is really serious that you have i mean, just a thousand that we know of from yement sand and lebanon and iran. that doesn't count afghanistan. alu're talking about china and russia. all it takes is one, sean. itl it tak just takes one to ha1 moment. and we have got to secure this border. you got to stop having that flow come in. g thyou you look at the fact that hamas broke through e througo all that they did in israel. we don't even have a barrier. they're coming throughn have a d and we're not vetting them. we don't know who they are. we don't know what's happeningg . we've got to start paying attention to the threats in this world and we've got ateatsthis realizing that thereh are enemies out there that hate us. and if wat e don't start securing and protecting ourselves, something bad is going to happe n. >> now, neither the department of homeland security, secretaryo mayorkas, nor fbi director wray can say with any certainty how many people have entered the country and how many people may have ties to terrorism. no w, ron johnson of wisconsin, w the senator, he thinks it's somewhereis, th around 8 mm illegal immigrants that joe biden has allowed into the countril joy, and that includes the, quote, gateways. my question to you is, i don't have any doubt that among those 8 million people that there are people with terrorist ties8a or people that will plot, pland and scheme a 911 or worse. i would say it's 100% certainty. but i'll add this caveat. >> i pray to god that i'm wrong . 240,000 came in last monthmonth. and 13 known terrorist suspects ,terrorists came in through our border last month that we knowthrder lasat of 13. how many do we not know of?of and it really a dereliction a of duty. there's not an american in this country that feelstry that safer what's happening. we've got to put an end to it. and it's note got to that hard.. define sanctuary cities. put 25,000 more border patrolan and ice agents on the ground and leground at them do their j. stop, catch and release. and let's do catch and deport. but thatch and and de main thinc go back to the remain in mexico policy. so they never step foot on our soil in the first place. they have to process from there. in t and the we have to do it.s can' our schools can't continue to take this. our hospitalt ts continue to t. this. we can't continue to have the crime and we can't affordameric to put americans at risk. and that's what joe biden's doing evers at risy he's putting america at risk. and amea president has one job and that's to keep their people safe. and he has not done and he has . let me ask you this. and you're this in a pretty unique position to answer this. and it's and we talkedique the p about this the last timero you were on the program. >> and that has to do with these globalistitzations. organizations, for example. >> tell me i telf i'm wrong that the united nations, of which we pay billions pay txpayer dollars ever to fund it, has beeno fund historically anti-american that and anti-semitic. >> is that a true statement? that's a true statementatementt okay. my question is, why are we funding it? whis, wh y do we bother to participate? then we can go to the w.h.o.theh another globalist organization. did they not cover up for what they knew about china and their role with the covid 19 virus? >> is that true? paid that is true. when they're bought and paid for by the chinese. and that playe byd in real time. >> okay. then wltime.e, the wef, the word economic forum. it seems that the world economic forum is about taking american mone mone redistributing our money around the world when we have when we,, 35, $36 trillion in debt? 36 trillis that an accurate sta? >> that's an accurate add statement. and i'll add to that. we gav to the $50 billion to countries, to foreign aid, to countries and we're givinge m it to countries that hate america. i mean, we have to stop givinger to countries that hate america. and, yes, the world economic forum is full of them. okay. next question. so donald trump got us out of the the paris climate accords. we paid the bulk of money for.ey joe biden brough ft us bacor ik. and correct me, ambassador, ifoo i'm wrong, governor, if you prefer. >> but isn't it true that the paris accords affords china and india in developing nations status. so they paid next to nothing compared to the amount of money that we're putting intoal that globalistist de deal. well, that's what's happening at the united nations. so they are considered china is considered a developing country at. the united nations, which we said was absolutely ridiculouse because they obviously are not a developing country. the problem with organizations, it's the reason we got out of the human rights council, it's the reaso theout of tn thad any u.s. aid going to the a palestinian refugee organization. it's the reason that the first year i was ambassado the rear ct $1,000,000,000 off the top at the u.nop a. all of these organizations, the world health arganization, we shouldn't be part of that. we should get out of it and we should stay out of it. thn helpedtarted whe china get into the world trade organization. we saw that as wela get into th bottom line is, we need to bewee developing relationships with our friends india, japan, south korea. phu know, we need to starts indn on the philippines. let's build up our relationshipp wirab countries, in a way r that we can go and defeat iran. those are ththe thingsective that that's better effective time than to go and sit ther teh and pay too much attention to these organizations wherees it all they do is talk about it over again. >> and they never do anythinr a and by the way, iran now, where if a woman is not does not cover her head, could be murdered and get the death penalty or if you're discovered to be or, they're going de they're going to kille going, iran, and give you the death penalty there. and now the head of ththey areen rights commission. that's not even a bad jokehuman yes, that is that is how corrupt that organization is. so my final leadganization is. n is this should america once and for all cut ties with all of these globalist organizationh all ofs? >> and if you ever became o that?nt, would you d >> if i become president, we pri will getde out of the humanly nt rights council. we would certainly not get back in climatearis get agreement. would we get out of the u.n., get out of the world health organizationaris cli , the u.n.? the only thing is we would defund the un as muchson yo as possible. the only reason, sean, you don't get out of the u.nt ge is we're one country of five that has a vet o and the numberre of things we were able to stop china, russia and iranop from doing with that veto matters. and so you keep bad things frome . but we don't have to pay at the level that we're paying and we don'vel we a dont have to be iny of those other organizations. ma all right. ambassador nikki haley, thank you so much for being with us. we appreciatdole e. at this hour, we are monitoring pro-palestinian protests havernv reportedly now turned violent. this outsideio. of the dnc the in washington, d.c., with rioters now clashing with police. by the way, chad pergram, by the way, is reporting that the house office buildings at the h becauseosed of it. we'll continue to update you with that and show you picturesdate youwith tha throug. but first, let's not forget the the biden family raked in millions of dollars from china, according to investigations in the u.s.e . senate and the house. well, millions s more from othec sketchy foreign nationals all over the worldhyn china, ukraine, russia, romania, they kazakhstan. and they did it without any clear servicesthout an that thed rendered even the grandchildren got paid. joe, apparentlch got paiy mighte gotten paid. and it's certainly clear tha it zero experienced hunter got paid a lot. well, now the new house speakero ,mike johnson, he is taking the impeachment inquiry to the next levele with a plan to place key witnesses under oath in the coming day in ths. now, my next guest served his country as vice president withou t, enriching thr his family through foreign cash. and recently, he did droou p out of the 2024 race for president. but he's continue to advocatprev for american values. by the way, he and his daughterl authored brand new book and ithf is entitled go home for dinneror advice from how faith makes a family and makes a life.. joining us now, former viceside president mike pence and hisnt daughter, charlotte pence. ponder with us, mr. vice president, before we get to this this really novel idea, or because i have not been home for dinner. i'm no i am n iw in my 28th year at fo, so i'm kind of guilty of being an absent from a lot of dinneres . but let me ask you about a what we see unfolding isr in israel, what we seeae unfolding in the world, some of the questioning, the line of questioning i was i was bringing up with ambassador haley. nick, i'm just curious. none of these institutions seem to be working. and you handled things very differently in the . ump administration for example, you were a lot tougher on china, for example, o put tariffs on china. and my understanding is and you can correc t if i'm wrong, my sources tell me that. and when it came to conversations you anden president trump had with president xi, they were brutallyt and what the response would be if he acted the wrong way. >> is that tru acted thee? >> that's absolutely true. and, you know, it was five years ago that i, i represented the administration at the conference. i met president and different than, you know, dinner and cocktails and warm conversations and agreements di like we heard announced tonight. although i welcomehed the fentl cooperation at conferencegave in papua new guinea. i gave a very tough speech. achi told china that we were de with their military itary pr, the asia pacific. we were done with their tradee o neabuses. we had invested a record amount and in our military and in a short period of time, we imposed $250 billion in tariffs on china. >> you know, i don'tffs exactlyn san fr what happened in san francisco. it doesn't sound like much came from iit doet at all. but the thing i know, having having spoken to president xi, having been at a forum t identical to that with him, is china understands and this is a moment of time where weav have an administration that from the disastrous withdrawalio from afghanistan, from the weakness joe biden has projected around the world, the kowtowing to china, begging around to get back in there in the iran nuclear deal. i mean, now more than ever, we need new leadership in thisprojc and we need a projection of strength. and tif strei say just as a pric citizen no longer involved in active politicsit, sean, that i didn't sense strength in our president's words tonigh's t. i didn't feel that he was forceful at all. and i think there's a lot more that he could have done. do you believe i'm correct in my belief that china, be, north korea have for formed a new axis of evimel? s n i don't think there's any question about that. questihat.it's one of the reasoy i you know, as i've said many timey times, need to speak withe voice in this country isra america stands with israel as israel does the hard work, whsch is going to be not day but months to hunt down and destroy hamas. but i also believe that america needs to continue to stand with the t people, ukraine, untl they repel that russian invasion, because russiaan and iran and china and north korea created a new axis and standing in solidarity as the leader of the free world is is the only forameric the united states ofa. america.m hey, listen, let me switch gears, if i mae ayy, and charloe pence bond, great to have you. and you wrote this book with your dad. go home for dinnerk dad, g. a advice on how faith makes a family and a family makes a life. mily andy makeand i was watchin interview on fox and friends, and you guys were great togetherwaintervie. i can't imagine you're a dad. angr.y and off. i can't imagine him yelling. f s died he ever have a few of those moments?
