what's that?media well, it'sbi easy to become numb to media bias. thes we'ree days. offender >> so we're going to keep track of the very worst offenders every chance we get .oject >> joining me now is horaced ser cooper project 21 chairter and senior fellow at the national center for public policy. icresearch, author of the new book put you all back and change how biden's policies blacks. and ari fleischer, former white house press secretary and foxnes news contributor. this with the big news of the week. and this was historic because u nancy pelosi has had to give up the gavel and the media.y well, they laithd it on really thick. >> it's the end of an era and an incredible one . and i mean, whether you'recan or a republican or a democrat,e in it's sort of hard not to be in all of what she has>> this accomplished unless you're in a cult. >> this is like watching m a great performer on the stagegr or a great athlete making a bigb decision about the nexto chapter. t wouloverstd be difficult to overstate the impact that nancy pelosi has left on our country and our politics. >> all right, ari, take it away. what about that? whatoh, well, laura , you know, ex the mainstream media does the exact same thing for republicans. >> but first, the republican has to die. e. >> if you remember george h.w. bush, they could stand him.d hi was up they kicked him when he was up,e kicked them when he was down. y but then after he died.him. oh, did they praise him? d so, yeah, they're fair. they living democrats and dead k republicans. >> well, they did it as well.presiden of course, when president reagan, for whom i worked, died in his funeral, you might as well have thoughtn they didn't call him, you know, sleeping in the afternoon. e ronnie reagan, he was goingthy to blow up the world, racist, anti-gayn ever, they hit him ony front. but at at the funeral, it was he was the most optimistic president ever. >> that's the criteria. die and they like you. all right, horace, ontoe the nextreal offender. we've seen some really hideous i treatment of herschel walker inb the media lately. but this one , t i think, takes' the cake. >> watch. ohs , no, he's not qualified to run for office, let alonete be a member of the senate. nonetheless, he's being kept propped up.t they know he's the beste comf qualified candidate, but it doesn't matter because they're comfortablore with him being inn that position because they know he'll never control or run anythingtheir in their lives. >> horace, demeaning, t begi disparaging just doesn't begin to describe that by your response. >> they're well, it's curious. none of this was said about amag war, not what kind of skillsr an did he bring to the table? it's amazing if you're ans ad th and willing to pursue some of the worst policies in the namen of enabling the bushon administration you'r. d sa you're wonderful in your celebrated. ysome c somethinountryg simple, like, i, this country, i want't l to represent the people of'm our state, we didn't like the lockdown's. and if're goin i'm elected, we'g to make sure those don't happen again. then suddenly there isn't any disparagement. too great to give you this is remarkable how one sided the media is in this case.us t >>hey ke put t and horace, theyt saying, well, he can't put twote words together and at the same i'm very impressed with john fetterman. the double standards are like i'm impressed with letterman's performance at the debate. but herschel walketel r, he cant put two sentences together. >> that's what separates the democrat buzz. last week,s well, i don't want to step on mr. fetterman and his challenges. i'll, just say this, though. our president who read that statement really read it without any irony. maybe he was unaware of when he made that comment. all right. r all right.eveat next up, we have a verylins revealing moment from caitlin collins over at cnn. you've been asked a loterview and almost basically every interview you've done recently, about a twenty twenty four run and running foyou sar presidentf you said you're not interested in it.porter o i guess my question is , ifhigau you're a supporter of yours and you're someone who doesn't live in michigan but what is nationais tforl, wantsn run, what is the argument fort? you not running for president ? >> all right. what is the argument for youwhai not bailing out of being with but stuck with biden again? i mean, they are desperately castinniteg glasses everywhereo to try to get someone else to run. but she was really luring old gretchen into the ring already. >> and on this one ,more s i anticipate a lot more similar questions to other democrats. ts i do think there's a legitimacy to the press saying be a to challenge biden? they want that story to be fascg a fascinating story if he does. >> but it also just shows they kind of like to bring theyi these democrats off the bencho h and onto the field that build them up. they prais easie be them. ma it's so much easier to bee a democrat and get praise from the mainstream media thanpublic the republican. republicans have no bands. they're alanl a bunch of wackose great governors and going to the press.benc buh jut the democrats, they're a of these great governors and a strong bench just ready to come out whenever the time is right. and the press kind of throws the softballs to . before we go ,your reaction, i e your reaction, both of you, to this news today. that the biden administration, which, of course, has drained the strategic petroleum reserve to its lowest levelsls and i believe 40 years, is now asking congress for 500 million, dollars to , quote, it' modernize it now saying it'sbecs because of the war.ly russia with ukraine is because of global supply issues. but, horace, it' e of what what did they do to deplete the spr to these citn dangerously low levels? wae citingr the war with ukraine, like the student loan program, this misuse of the was merely as a means of manipulate the election 6th process. we've got a special counselartig looking into january six .a lot >> we're starting to see sign elec willingness has been made to toa manipulate the electoral process. >> and the media doesn't seem to be concerned at all. ari, how serious is this issue? >> oh, it is serious. d this was designed for nationaleh emergencies in case the uniteder states goes to war, in cased toh there's a cutoff of energy. designemaned to heluvp a dime or a quarter. ari and horror, it's greatou too to see you both. u. want toand i thank you. >> i want to address the appalling announcemente today by the egregiously corrupt biden administrationice. and their weaponizes department of justice. would yo e to talk abu like me to talk au that? this horrendous abuse of powerie is the latest day long series ln of witch hunts and started ago a long time ago.document i thought the investigation with the documen wast was dying dead or over, and the investigation into january six . and my very peaceful and patriotic speech, remember, peaceful and patriotically wasot dead, especially after liz the record setting forty point loss of liz cheney state o, the state of wyoming. >> i thought it was that. i thought that put the final nail in the coffin, only to find out that the corrupt and highly political justice department juse departmet appoit a super radical left special bee counsel, better referred to as a special prosecutor to start the proces thought is all over . we thought it was just about dead. and i guarantee you they gett be a fair investigation.igatio this will non.t be a fair thougt investigation. his wabut again, i thought thiss all done or very close to being done. these people yet were corrupt and yet they go after innocent people under the guise of t legitimacy. and you'd really say enough is enough to get back to work. got to prove that we have a great country again. because right now it's not great. >> right now it's a laughingstock all over the world. htiei earlier today,land attorney general merrick garlan d continued his campaign of destruction against the credibility of the department of justice justn. three days after formerays. president trump announced he would run again foran president in 2020 four, garland announced the appointment of a special counsel. anotheonr one to oversee investigations into the former president . >> the departmen t of justiceis has long recognized that in certain extraordinary cases, it is in the public interest to appoint a special prosecuto r to independently manage an n incl based on recent developments, including the former president's announcement that he is a candidate forctio president in the next election. n,and the sittingate as president stated intention to be a candidat we as well. i have concluded that it is innt the public interest to appointe a special counsel. >> doeats anyone? actually believe pub thatli this is all in the public interest while the special counse l is prosecutor, formerknown prosecutor known as john or jack smith, he began hisnes pros prosecutorial career in 1994w yk as an assistant district attorney with the new york county d.a.'s office before becoming assistant u.s. attorney for the eastern eastern district of new york .kn back in 1999 and then from 2008n to 2010, he served with thel crn internationaall criminal court,s where he supervised all watird y crimes investigation conducted,e by the office of the prosecutor. then returned to the doj as chief of their publicy integrity section. sectioand then mr. smith served as the vice president of litigationporation for the hospe corporation of america before most recently serving as the hae chief prosecutor for the special court in the hague. >>. here now, matt whitaker, g former trump actingmike attorney general dav and mikeclh davis, president of the article three project and former clerkre for justice neil gorsuch. garland sa matt , let's start with you now. garland saids that trump's announcement and biden's professed likely run in 2020 four were factors in his decision to name a speciala spea counsel. coun th announcement on tuesday or somehow triggered this decision? justifiably? >> i don't think so, lord . it's good to be with you tonight. i think here wthis ie go againso i mean, this is the left's favorite tool is to appoint a special counsel and then letry the media breathlessly report on every twist and turn ofand 2r a special counsel, giving itn some imprimatur of evenmissta super legitimacy like merrick garland misstated a very important factte , and that is that this special counsel. e is not independent from the department of justice. >> this special counsel departm is going to not only use all the resources of the departmentc of justice in the fbi, buttl alo report directly to merricky garland. is coa wantroy for merrick garland to solely control the fate of donald trump's legal cases. most part and i think itisan is probablyea the most partisan move he's made to date. well, mike , whe n asked abouthat th the news today, a white housepag official told fox that the doj makes decisions about itss criminal investigations independently. and we are not involveinvolved.a but, mike , we remember thatwher story that leaked to the media this past spring where bidensoue was quoted by sources as having said inside the white house that he was frustratedarland was with garland, that garland was acting more like a judge than a prosecutor. and somehow that made its way into the newspapers to believe that that has any impact on garland. now, biden i biden is himself independent here and biden justa made another public commenl t ao about this several days ago. wat also, remember, it was the biden white house that waved president trump's claim we of executive privilege that paved the way for this mar-a-lago raid. and we nee d to step back and remember a couple of things. this this special counselnon-cr is going to investigate the non crimes of objecting to the presidential election. if it were a crime d,emocrats vethe democrats would have been charged in for nineteen sixty nine , 2001, twenty five twentyi seventeen. whent' they objected to the election. it's also a non that they're ing investigating the non crime of a former president taking a personal copy of his records when heo do leaves office office. he is specifically allowed ial to do that under the presidential records act. and where the heck is thebide special counsel to investigate president biden, his son hunter, and his brother james when there g is clearign o smoking gun evidence of foreignr corruption in china and thukraig ukraine matter? >> it's just really i think, . a huge mistake for the bidens gn justice department. e seenthis is going to be seenn as political. i'm sorr ay, and it's going to c seen as an attempt to getadvers a political adviser off the field before twenty , twenty four , whether they think trump is wounde d ore not. previous to this announcement, at least haltry's thef the couny is going to not believe the outcome here. whatever the outcome ultimately is , agreeis i do you agree that thj is just this is politically and legally a mistake for this justice department? i do. and i agree with mike thatand yo these are legally specious cases to start with .ial coun >> and , you know, if you think about why the special counsel, t rule is there, it's a department of justice co regulation is becausuncie the independent counsel statute expired and the department of justice didn't want more regulation of how it conducted its business. and so we end up in this moment where it is now used as a weapon to hurt and weakent political opponents. thi but i just don't think thattwo-i the american people can stand for this two tiered systemm of i justice, because if you read the special counsel regulationregulation, the bideni lot more on poinalt for appointing a special counsel than the donald trump case, because there arnflicts e clear conflicts within the department of justice as it inve the family of your boss and thee person thad t politically appointed you to those roles. >> now, mike , i to play another moment from garland's announcement this afternoon. >> watch the career prosecutors assigned to these matters are conducting their work in the best traditions of the department of justice. i also want to recognizee th the efforts of the many fbiand y agents and other law enforcement personnel who are assigned to these matters. personnethey are working couragn and steadfastly and are serving our nation honorably. >>anitee mike , given what we've learned about some of these prosecutors and agents, goingn back to the mueller investigation, frankly, even before tha that,elievet, will ae believe this? and it soundacs likeademy it ws the academy awards, only the only person i didn't think was his agent and his manager. there e. >> anyone can remember laura , one of the attorneys on the pleadings on this case was a former democra staffert sr in the senate. and so obviously, obviou, that t prosecutor has a political bias and she is a prosecutor namedpae on the pleadings. thisnt that went is the same jue department that went to aased biased magistrate judge bruce reinhardt, who had just recusedr from president trump'sum civilso lawsuit against hillary clinton six weeks prior because thatased judges, that magistrate judgess clear bias based upon his later facebook post. and they went back to this judge six weeks later and got this unprecedent unnecessary, unlawful homebred on a former president to go get records back , that to which they weresh not entitled becausete rig the presidenhte recordt has thee right to these records under the presidential records act. this thithis is sts stock from d one and it's been politicized and weaponized against president trump since day one . the specia >> and we all have to rememberiw that the special counsel's office essentially with very few limitations, has an co unlimited budget. correct, mike ? i mean, very quickly that they can spend tens of millions of dollars on this. and now just like they did last time with mueller, just just like the mueller probe, maybe they can hire andrew weissman again, the partisan hack to be t the top lawyerop law on the proi this probe. t this special counsel essentially. could have an unlimited budget. i would say to president bideno ,if you want to ensuree wh president trump gets back into the white house, indict hiem. w now, i think house republicans should say we're not funding this investigation. publicans we're not we're not ge part of this. we're no t going to turn our country upside down for this down specious investigatio. that's what they should do. but matt and mike , great whilev to see you both.otre still btonight. den thank you. now, late last week, while votes were still being counted, the biden administration quietly announced that it would extend the covid emergency through the spring of 2020cessa, three . insane. of course, it's not necessary. whye arethey they doing it dor e drs. macquarrie and hamady are here in moments to tell us what is really going on here. >> so stay there. this holiday season, give your special someone the gift of naturally new pajamas. exclusive from pajama graham. a luxurious way to relax. naturally, new pajamas, caress your skin and compliment her every color, plus accentuate her beauty. naturally, pajamas are available in sizes from extra small to three bags and come with a love guarantee. >> and now in this special tv offer, when you order pajama grahams naturally pajamas today, they'll ship tomorrow. >> but that's at all. >> you'll also receive absolutely free and naturally you'd need even better when you order today the jamma ramlal include free gift packaging order. now through this special offer ,you'll save seventy five dollars and get a free bonus nightie plus pajama. grandma will wrap it for absolutely free. make her feel cherished this holiday season. order now shifts tomorrow. >> hi, i'm mike huckabee, former governor of arkansas, and i'm here today to tell you about our hidden health crisis currently affecting nearly every american sleep deprivation. and that's why you need to know about relaxium sleep. you see getting a good night's sleep helps support a healthy immune system, helps maintain healthy blood pressure, healthy cardiovascular system. thankfully, relaxium sleeps formula is clinically proven to help you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer and wake up feeling refreshed. >> when i take relaxium sleep, i sleep better than i have in years. i wake up feeling alert like i've had the best sleep call today and get your very own risk free bottle of relaxium sleep. take control of your health, stop struggling with restless nights, sleep like you were meant to with relaxium call eight under three two two zero four zero four eight under three two two zero four zero four call eight under three two two zero four zero four eight hundred three two two zero four zero four diamonds. the jewelry exchange has thousands of diamonds. the same prices one carat white as high quality diamonds are just nine ninety. plus the latest customer and designer mounts se
