>> Dagen: A DEMOCRAT-LET HOUSE COMMITTEE HOLDING ITS FIRST HEARING ON THE JANUARY 6 CAPITAL RIOT, POLICE OFFICERS ON DUTY THAT DAY GIVING DRAMATIC TESTIMONY ON WHAT THEY WITNESSED. SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI UNDER FIRE FOR BLOCKING TWO REPUBLICAN NOMINEES TO THE PANEL, THE DEMOCRATS AREN'T HAPPY WITH THEIR REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES EITHER, ADAM SCHIFF SAYING THIS ABOUT LEADER McCARTHY BEFORE THE HEARING EVEN STARTED. >> THAT REPUBLICAN PARTY THAT WAS WILLING TO DO THAT IN 2001 AND 2002 IS NOT DONALD TRUMP'S REPUBLICAN PARTY, IT HAD KEVIN McCARTHY HAVE BEEN THE LEADER THEN THERE WOULD'VE BEEN NO 9/11 COMMISSION, THERE WOULD'VE BEEN, YOU KNOW, AN EFFORT TO PERSUADE THE COUNTRY THAT IT DIDN'T HAPPEN OR IT'S OVERBLOWN OR WHO KNOWS WHAT THE ACCLAMATION WOULD'VE BEEN. >> Dagen: REPUBLICAN HOUSE MINORITY LEADER KEVIN McCARTHY BLASTING PELOSI AND CALLING THE HEARING A SHAM. >> UNFORTUNATELY, SPEAKER PELOSI WILL ONLY PICK ON PEOPLE ON THE COMMITTEE THAT WILL ASK THE QUESTION SHE WANTS ASKED. THAT BECOMES A FAILED COMMITTEE, A SHAM THAT NO ONE CAN BELIEVE. IF YOU WANT THE TRUE ANSWERS, DO NOT BE AFRAID OF THE QUESTIONS I WILL GET ASKED. >> Dagen: GREG, HAVE AT IT. >> Greg: I'M GOING TO PREFACE WHAT WE'VE ALWAYS SET ON THE SHOW RIGHT OFF THE BAT, WE CONDEMN EQUALLY THE RIGHTS OF LAST YEAR, THE BILLIONS IN DAMAGES AND JANUARY 6 BECAUSE AS CONSERVATIVES OR LIBERTARIANS OR REPUBLICANS, WE HAVE A GATE THAT PREVENTS THE BARBARIANS FROM STORMING AND ON JANUARY 6TH WE BECAME THE BARBARIANS, WE DON'T LIKE THAT. HAVING SAID THAT, IT WOULD BE FUN TO DO A HEARING ON THE CRIME WAVE AND INTERVIEW THE POLICE FROM SEATTLE, PORTLAND, MINNEAPOLIS, NEW YORK CITY JUST TO PROVIDE REAL CONTEXT ABOUT ACTUAL THREATS TO DEMOCRACY. WE ARE BEING LECTURED BY PHONY POLITICIANS ABOUT THREATS TO OUR COUNTRY WHILE THEY IGNORE A MOUNTING PILE OF DEAD END IT'S ALL FOR POLITICS. I ALSO REJECT THE IDEA THAT HAVING POLITICIANS JOBS DISRUPTED FOR TWO HOURS IS SOMEHOW WORSE THAN BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN DISTRACTION AND DOZENS OF DEATHS INCLUDING POLICE OFFICERS. THAT'S WHY I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A HEARING ABOUT THAT BECAUSE I AM NOT -- I CAN'T STOMACH THE CRYING, I CAN'T STOMACH THE CRYING. I SAW SOME REALLY BAD STUFF LAST YEAR AND NONE OF THOSE PEOPLE LIFTED A FINGER, WHAT A BACKWARDS WORLD WE LIVE IN WHERE THE MEDIA DIDN'T GIVE TWO F'S ABOUT POLICE OFFICERS GETTING KILLED AND BUSINESSES GET TORCHED, A FEMALE PROTESTER WAS SHOT DEAD, POINT BLANK. IMAGINE IF SHE WAS BLM, HOW WOULD THIS TURN OUT DIFFERENTLY? JUST THINK ABOUT THAT, THAT'S WHY THIS IS A CIRCUS, THAT'S A CLOWN SHOW AND I DON'T BUY THE FAKE TEARS. >> Dagen: THEY KEEP COMPARING THIS TO 9/11. I'D LIKE THEM TO CALL JUST A FEW OF THE THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN WHO LOST A MOTHER OR A FATHER ON 9/11. THIS IS HIDEOUSNESS. >> Dana: THAT TYPE OF COMPARISON IS NOT NECESSARY, THERE ARE 14 INVESTIGATIONS THAT ARE UNDERWAY. I THINK THERE'S 12 IN CONGRESS AND ONE AT DOJ AND ONE IN FBI. THERE ARE SOME QUESTIONS THAT SHOULD BE ANSWERED AND I DO THINK OF THE DEMOCRATS HAVE OVERPLAYED THEIR HAND ON THE POLITICS OF THIS AND ARE OVERESTIMATING THE AMOUNT OF VICTORY THEY ARE GETTING IN TERMS OF POLITICS BUT THE REPUBLICANS MIGHT BE UNDERESTIMATING THE LIABILITY AS WELL SO I WOULD LOVE TO GET SOME ANSWERS TO SOME OF THESE QUESTIONS, IN PARTICULAR THE ONE THING THAT IS INTERESTING IN THE COMPARISON OF 9/11 I MIGHT WORK WHICH IS WHY WASN'T THE INFORMATION SHARED WITH THE PEOPLE WHO NEEDED TO KNOW IN ORDER TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT TO PREVENT IT IN THE FIRST PLACE? >> Dagen: AND THE DEMOCRATS, GERALDO, DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE A HEARING ABOUT THE EMERGENCE OF COVID WHICH HAS KILLED 611,000 AMERICANS. >> Geraldo: I TREASURE THAT THE AUDIENCE AT FOX NEWS HAS TOLERATED ME FOR 20 YEARS KNOWING THAT I AM OUT OF STEP WITH THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE WATCHING RIGHT NOW. I HATE WHEN I AGREE WITH ADAM SCHIFF IT GIVES ME THE CREEPS. LIZ CHENEY AND ADAM KINGS THERE ARE MY FAVORITE REPUBLICANS. THEY ARE, THIS IS KEVIN McCARTHY ON JANUARY 13TH 2021. THE PRESIDENT BEARS RESPONSIBILITY FOR WEDNESDAY'S ATTACK ON CONGRESS BY MOB RIOTERS. HE SHOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY DENOUNCED THE MOB WHEN HE SAW WHAT WAS ON FOLDING." THAT'S KEVIN McCARTHY, THE MINORITY LEADER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, SANCTIMONIOUS LECTURER TELLING US THIS. NOTHING HAPPENED, THAT'S LIKE BLAMING THE PERSON WHO GETS SHOT IN THE CHEST FOR NOT WEARING A BULLETPROOF VEST, THEY ATTACKED THEIR CAPITAL AND HOW DARE YOU, GREG, SAY THAT THIS IS TWO HOURS OF DISRUPTION. THIS WAS THE WORST ATTACK, ON THE CAPITAL -- D5 THESE JERKS WERE, AS THE CORONAVIRUS WAS BEGINNING TO SPREAD AROUND THE NATION WERE BUSY IMPEACHING PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR A SECOND TIME. >> Jesse: I WAS WATCHING A HEARING ON MY PHONE AND JESSE JR. PEAKS OUT OF HIS CRIB THIS MORNING AND SAYS "DAD, IS THIS ALL PELOSI HAS IN THE MIDTERM ELECTION?" I THINK THERE IS, WHAT, SIX AGENCIES INVESTIGATING THIS THING. THIS IS JUST A SHOW TRIAL TO PUT REPUBLICANS ON THE DEFENSE. THEY ARE GOING TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE, THEY RAKE TO THIS COMMITTEE, REPUBLICANS DON'T EVEN HAVE A VOICE AND THEN THEY FUND RAISE UP AND EVERYBODY CRIES, WE KNOW THE GAME HERE. A LOT OF RIOTERS WHEN AN UNBROKEN BROKE INTO PEOPLE'S BUSINESSES LAST SUMMER AND NO ONE CARED AND THEY BROKE INTO THE DEMOCRATS PLACE OF WORK, THEY WANT TO THROW THE BOOK AT HIM, LAST SUMMER THEY BAILED OUT THE RIOTERS. THEY BAILED OUT THE RIOTERS LAST SUMMER. >> Greg: I CARE ABOUT THE SMALL BUSINESSMAN. THEY ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT, BUT HERE JUST AS IMPORTANT. YOU SAID THAT THE CRIME WAS A CIVIL RIGHTS BATTLE OF THE GENERATION, ALL THOSE BUSINESSES DESERVE EQUAL, EQUAL -- >> Geraldo: YOU ARE DEFLECTING, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY DEFLECTING TO TRY TO GET THE EYES OFF THE CAPITAL, 500 PEOPLE -- HISTORY WILL JUDGE YOU. >> Greg: I WILL REPEAT WHAT GREG SAID. >> Dagen: BE CAREFUL ABOUT USING THE WORD
