programming note next tuesday night hitting the road town hall with former president donald trump in cedar rapids iowa. ticket are free go to hannity.com. another live audience in new york tomorrow. please set your dvr, 9:00 eastern, 6:00 pacific so you never, ever miss an episode of hannity. but in the meantime let not your heart be troubled, laura ingraham, the ingraham angle starts right here right now. laura, hi. >> laura: are we sad? how is everybody in the studio? how are all of you? >> sean: by the way, tomorrow night, because we have what's called no toss fry. >> laura: what? >> sean: tomorrow night will be our last handoff. >> laura: i don't know if i can take this. honestly, i'm --. >> sean: you abandoned me, that's the way i look at it. >> laura: i'm very upset about this but i'm also excited about my new time slot. but i'm very sad because i feel like there's a distance growing between us that i'm not so comfortable with. so i'm just hoping that somehow we'll be able to bridge that gap

that is obviously impending. >> sean: would you like me to find you a therapist? >> yes. no, there's several existing in your audience right now. >> sean: there is, there's a doctor here tonight. >> laura: yes, i understand that. and i can't wait to see you in studio soon in new york. >> sean: all right. >> laura: and we love all of you in new york. thank you so much, sean. awesome show. i am laura ingraham, this is the ingraham angle from washington tonight. the war against common sense, that's the focus of tonight's angle. now, you know that safety announcement that the airlines always make before you take off? >> cabin pressure changes, oxygen masks will drop from the panels above your seat. be sure to adjust your own mask before helping others. >> laura: well, clearly that thinking doesn't apply to biden's foreign policy crew. you know, we all, you know, watch the white house do nothing as the war against america kills more than, what, a hundred thousand every year? and the dhs knows who's

responsible. >> china is the source of most of the precursor chemicals required for fentanyl production. a cartel associate brokers the sale and shipment of fentanyl precursor chemicals from china to clan des denied labs in mexico where the fentanyl is manufactured. >> laura: despite this the administration refuses to do what's necessary to stop the flow of drugs and the mules to bring them across the border. but there are borders that our president is laser focused on enforcing. the boarders of another country just 5,000 miles away. >> we will not waiver. we will not waiver. i mean that. our commitment to ukraine will not weaken. >> laura: well, we will not waiver, those are nice words. but the truth is, presidents from linden johnson to george w. bush have seen that the public eventually turns against endless

ill-defined wars. eventually the people's patience runs out and the money dries up. remember what happened in the 2006 midterms when voters began to develop a deepening and hardening opposition to the war in iraq? now, this sentiment only grew, and two years later it helped elect anti war democrat barack obama to the presidency. and then eight years later donald trump won the presidency as the only gop candidate to call out the decision-making behind the iraq war. >> obviously the war in iraq was a big fat mistake. we should have never been in iraq. we have destabilized the middle east. >> laura: but now, years later, we seem to have forgotten what we should have learned long ago. while we don't have american soldiers, of course, deployed in ukraine, the american taxpayers are, once again, left holding the bag. as ordinary people struggle to make ends meet here at home. now, to date, the tab is, what,

about 115 billion? and all we have to show for it is a depleted u.s. munitions stockpile and major ukrainian cities in ruin. >> what sort of update did president zelenskyy give you on how their counter offensive is going? >> well, i'm not at liberty to give you the detail of that, but it's -- we talked at length about it with all those military people in there, and they're still optimistic but they know it's a hard slog. >> laura: wait, a hard slog? a few months ago we were told the ukrainian counter offensive would break putin's troops but now we're sending cluster bombs to help them break through? hmm. well, at this point we've come to a parting of the ways, haven't we? most of us, i think, want our government to do what's best for america first. it usually ends up with peace through strength.

but biden and his donors view themselves first and foremost as members of the global community. >> i believe one of our defining missions is to uphold the international rules-based order. >> basic principles, basic rights and a rules-based international order. >> none of us can ignore the threat to the rules-based international order. >> laura: well, biden is far more worried about offending volodymyr zelenskyy than he is about offending any of you. >> our unity will not falter. >> the one thing zelenskyy understands now is that, whether or not he's in nato now is not relevant as long as he has the commitment. >> laura: now, the administration indicators to zelenskyy and throws crumbs to the rest of us. so the question voters now have

to confront is why should we continue to tax hard-working americans to try to protect freedom in ukraine when our own treasury department is working with the chinese to undermine america? >> i've met with premier li, vice premier hu, finance minister lhu, people's bank of china pam and other senior officials. these conversations were direct, substantive and productive. >> laura: productive for whom? american factory workers? i don't think so. now, biden's donors and plenty of gop senators are adamant, though, that we not offend china despite the fact that they're trying to underminus in every continent. and, yet, we're literally bowing down to them. now, none of this makes any sense. 78 years after the end of world war ii, for americans to still

be carrying the lions share of the burden to defend europe? now, consider how many hours every single year our citizens work versus the citizens of other g-7 countries work. now, in france, well, think about this, they work 1,500 and so hours a year and germany 1,340 hours per year, but here in america we work 1,810 hours every year. now, how can these other countries afford to like have guarantied weeks off every august? no. how do europeans get away with paying less than 2% of their gdp on defense? i'll tell you why. because we pay for 3% out of our gdp for our military. now, of course, the euro snobs were enraged, remember, when trump called them all out for slacking on their military expenditures, but he was a

hundred percent right. how often is biden, for instance, called greg abbott, the governor of texas, who's clearly dealing with the worst of the border crisis, and spoken at any time like this to him. >> we're going to make sure that you get what you need. thank you for what you're doing and the bad news for you is, we're not going anywhere. you're stuck with us. >> laura: now, no wonder trust in government is at an all-time low. the great protectors of democracy have destroyed that trust. so how can we rebuild faith in the government that's supposed to be a government of the people by the people and for the people? well, first, i think it's time for americans to realize that we have to protect ourselves from the cartel. that means enforce the border. you know, all of this is a complete nightmare. and, second, forget de-risking from china, we need to decouple from china. because a real super power

doesn't help make its top adversary stronger economically, it wants to defeat it. and, third, isn't it time for europe to be more self rely ant? it's time to end the free loading error. and, foushths let's return the military to its original mission, defending what the american flag stands for, not the alphabet flag of radicalism. and fifth a total revamping of our federal law enforcement and our intel agencies. we need to threaten to strip away all but the bare bones funding of these agencies until every last political activist is removed from the ranks. now, on that last subject, there were some fireworks on capitol hill today. >> americans have seen the fbi's richmond field office put together a memorandum saying pro life catholics are extremists. i hope they will work with us in

the appropriations process to stop the weaponization of of the government against the american people. >> fbi leaders reflect the best of our organization, an organization that is made up of 38,000 men and women who are patriots, professionals, and dedicated public servants, and the idea that i'm bias against conservatives seems somewhat insane to me. >> laura: well, sorry, chris, but that's not a defense. we have evidence dating back years showing that top officials of the fbi and the cia plotted against donald trump, abusing the fisa process, and then ignoring moufrndz mounds of exculpatory evidence. why would they do take? until we elect a president that will change the status quo it makes absolutely no sense to continue to blow our tax dollars on the pentagon, the state department or the intel community. now, in the past, presidents like truman or eisenhower or

jfk, reagan, they did a pretty good job, didn't they, of convincing the american people that they could actually trust their government. but now that trust has been lost. and reflecting and reelecting biden will only make a bad situation worse. so it's time for liberals who bee moan the growing public discontent with government, it's time for them to look in the mirror. conservative cable hosts didn't politicize the fbi or hide the truth about hunter biden. your people did. and that's the angle. >> very honored to have this chance to meet, and we've always had great conversations, and we'll have a lot of important topics to discuss today. i was very disappointed i couldn't come these last four years so very exciting to be back. >> laura: that was bill gates less than a month ago visiting

his good pal xi jinping. now xi apparently returned the favor by using the company that he founded, of course, gates founded, microsoft, to launch a cyber attack against the u.s. government. now, despite the feds spending, what, 15.6 billion on cybersecurity, more than the gdp of nearly, what, 75 countries, chinese cyber spies were able to exploit a fundamental gap in microsoft's cloud enabling them to hack e-mail accounts at the state department and other agencies. but this really should come as no surprise because microsoft has had a really sim biotic relationship with china for years. as forbes noted in a recent piece in 2014 microsoft became the first foreign company to offer public cloud computing services in the chinese market. and in march of this year, they would begin offering open ai as

poverty its cloud services. and, get this, microsoft gave the chinese government access to the source code for its windows operating system. that happened back in march of 2003. joining me now senator tom cotton who sits on the senate intel and arms services committee. senator, our government relies on these tech companies for its communications and, of course, these tech companies rely on china for money. how thinks a sustainable relationship, senator? >> well, laura, it's not a relationship we should be in with the chinese communists or that some of our leading companies should be in as you said in the opening, this goes back decades failures of trying to integrate our qemm he with china's and you saw the spectacle of the treasure secretary going to china and cow

you go to saying people like you and i are wrong saying we should decouple from china's economy so we can eliminate all they pose to our safety and health and prosperity. microsoft has answers to provide here. the reporting i've seen suggests that you couldn't access these accounts in the government just through like an individual key but it would take something the equivalent like a master key and that should have been secure at microsoft and how did chinese come nests get their hands on that. also a point beyond microsoft and to our government to joe biden in particular. he continues to try to accommodate, con sill 88 and appease with xi jinping and the chinese communists we shouldn't be surprised they continue to take these provocative steps. a few months ago a balloon, now hacking into the state department. yet what do we see a continued flow of senior administration officials like the treasure secretary and soon john kerry talking about climate change going to china to plead with

china to help joe biden fulfill his goals. we shouldn't be surprised to continue taking provocative actions against us and our friends. >> laura: senator cotton without rub votes, the pentagon could not continue doing what the pentagon does and we all love our military, that goes without saying. but given the fact that our government is clearly working to enrich china and grow the chinese economy, how do we keep asking taxpayers to fund this pentagon at this level? we're certainly not acting like a super power when china's about to build this base in cuba and we have nothing to say about it. so how do we ask tax nairs good fight keep forking over the money. >> laura what we need to do in congress and what i'm trying to do with others is make sure we're funding the right things in the pentagon right kind of weapons systems or things that deter china, whether it's more

submarines or modernizing our nuclear forces or making sure that our bases in the western pacific are secured against chinese attacks. what we shouldn't be doing is funding the left's and the biden administration's politicization of our military. we've taken steps to stop that i hope we can do more in the weeks ahead as we consider legislation in congress but we fund right things to help our troops deter chinese aggression against america's interests. >> laura: senator cotton i asked this of senator schmidt of missouri last night i'm going to ask you the same question. do you think the military has become a hostile work environment to people of strong faiths, catholics, muslims, jewish americans, given the radical turn on racial and gender indoctrination? >> so, laura, i've heard and i can dotes about some of that, some of them coming with people from whom i served, you know, 15, almost 20 years ago, i

guess. i don't think it's necessarily pervasive, especially on the front lines and the company and the battalions and brigades but at the higher level you have civilian appointees very ideological trying to take steps to politicize the military and to socially engineer it that we should not every do with our military because -- >> laura: but, senator, i don't mean to interrupt you, but do you think a devout catholic would be elevated to become a general in today's military? a very, you know, outwardly devout catholic in this administration would be elevated to the general level? >> i do, laura, and i think that's the case at most levels as well. >> laura: you do? okay. >> i don't doubt, though, that there are some ideologues at the pentagon not just focused on religion they're focused on race and sexuality.

they're not focused on what's necessary which is making sure our troops are ready to fight in wars and hopefully not having to fight in the first place. >> laura: we just had the secretary of navy who just said at a major address at the national press club that we are completely outflanked on the naval side by china. i mean they have, what, 50 more ships than we have, a much bigger ship-building capacity than we have, and yet our trade policy seems to be geared toward enriching china senator. the angle was about, you know, this doesn't make any sense, that doesn't make any sense to people who are actually paying the bills here. >> yeah, that's in part, again, because we have been outsourcing so much of our industrial base to china for 20 or 30 years. they have ship yards that can do all of what american ship yards can do combined. that has to be a real focus of ours. we cannot continue to let china crank out more ships in a year than we can build in three or four or five years. that's all about bringing jobs back to the united states, all

about developing skilled workers who are going to get high paying jobs in places like our ship yards that are going to be contributing to our national defense. >> laura: senator great to see you thanks so much >> the fbi engaged in unspeakable crimes against american citizens and the democrats response when they get the director in front of them? well smear legitimate whistleblowers. attorneys for that whistleblower are here next.

american citizens and the

♪ >> laura: i think about what the democratic party might have sounded like, i don't know, even a decade ago. government intrusion into our lives, unaccountable intelligence agencies preying on our citizens. well, they'd say these are poisons that have to be extracted from the body of politics. but at today's house judiciary committee they not only acted as director chris wray's body guard they labeled charges against legitimate whistleblowers. here's congressman jerry nadler. >> chair man jordan invited some of these so-called whistleblowers to testify before the weaponization sub committee in may. as it turns out two of the witnesses were ultimately paid $250,000 each for their testimony, money raised in part

by former trump aide kash patel and paid by a check whose memo line reads, quote, for holding the line. >> laura: joining us now is tristan levitt from empower oversight and jason foster from empower oversight both representing whistleblower marcus allen. tristan your response to nadler as allegations. apparently your client is only in there for the money. is there truth to that. >> pretty outrages. isn't the first time it's shoot first and ask questions later from him and his staff. they did it in march and obviously haven't learned from their mistakes but as the world saw when marcus allen testified at this last hearing, he is someone without a paycheck for a year and a half for simply trying to do his job so it's outrages fornadler and others to launch this war on whistleblowers again who are just trying to do the right thing. >> laura: jason did they get paid $250,000 or not. >> no, they didn't get paid

$250,000. another whistleblower raised some money with a give send go campaign and posted a picture of some checks on line but they have not checked those checks because they're seeking legal advice about whether and how and when they can accept the money. >> laura: you can see where this is all going. i mean, they like whistleblowers until they don't like them until they're actually revealing democrat corruption but this is congresswoman sheila jackson lee, tristan, specifically calling out your organization. watch this. >> boil and allen represented by an outfit called power oversight run by former republican staffers. do you know who else empower oversight might represent? the so-called irs whistleblower who jim jordan had relied upon. does anyone need further proof that these allegations are ginned up corrupt political stunts advanced by those who don't want to see us follow the law. >> tristan i know you and jason both have some details to share with us tonight on this.

tell us about it. >> absolutely. well, first off, jason and i are both extremely proud to work the whistleblowers we do, we think it is a' incredibly important to protect those coming ford to protect about waste fraud and abuse. >> what about this jason, is this just -- this is just some kind of right wing fantasy? again, i think people who don't really follow the nitty-gritty of these cases, at some point, you know, all the dust is thrown in the air and they don't know what to think. >> it's outrages for members of congress to attack whistleblowers for political purposes especially when they haven't gotten their facts straight and clearly the congresswoman didn't have our facts straight. in fact, marcus allen grew up in her district and his parents still live there and are constituents of hers. and they actually had contacted marcus's mother had actually contacted the congresswoman's office for help with the unfair treatment that he was getting from the fbi several months ago,

and never heard back. so needless to say, she was pretty upset when she saw her son being attacked without the congresswoman having done her due diligence today on national television. >> laura: now, tristan, is your client, i mean, still, you know, content with the decision to come forward? any second thoughts, given the huge and unrelenting onslaught from the left? >> marcus's case is interesting because he was already retaliated against before he came forward. his original disclosures were internal to the fbi they suspended his security clearance and without pay for a year and a half simply for doing his job so he really didn't have a choice but to come forward. he has been interviewed by the inspector general at the department of justice who is taking his case seriously so he has a promising path to be restored and made whole within the agency but no question his name has been dragged through

the mud again clearly democrats seem intent on waging a war against whistleblowers and no one in their right mind would choose to get in the middle of that. >> laura: clearly he's just part of the white supremacist action out there that's clearly what's going on. tristan and jason great to see both of you thanks so much >> our next guest was one of the few on capitol hill today that would actually mention what would get to the heart of reform using congress's power of the purse to force serious reforms at the fbi. now this is what he said when leaving the hearing today. >> have to have the people believe the system of justice is fair, and this fbi is not presenting that to the people. they want accountability for these a egregious errors they see, we need changes in the fbi and if they want to continue to request the funding, for example, for a billion dollars new headquarters, they have to show us they can respect the constitutional rights of the people they are supposed to serve and protect. >> laura: here now is that member of the house judiciary committee louisiana congressman

mike johnson. congressman, in the angle we talked about the ways that we could gradually build back the public's trust in our institutions. the left is always saying, well, how sad it is that people have lost faith in government but whose fault is it that the people have lost faith in government. it's certainly not, you know, certainly not cable news hosts or trump. he didn't censor americans and he didn't target americans based on political affiliation for prosecution. >> yeah. the people have lost faith in the fbi because frankly they've lost count of the number of scandals that have mounted just in the last couple of years. they have really and truly weaponized the department of justice and the fbi. the premier law enforcement agency in the country. and, you know, right now there is a poll that came out last week laura, only 37% of americans have a favorable opinion of this top law enforcement agency and today, director wray appears before our committee, he's defiant, he's evasive. he just played right into this

sort of perception that's out there that they can't be trusted. it looked suspect. he couldn't provide the most simple and straightforward answers about things that he really should have been prepared to talk about today. >> laura: yeah. to that point, congressman, i want to play a, i think a quite revealing exchange with you and director wray. >> can you define what disinformation is? >> what i can tell you is that our focus is not on disinformation broadly speaking, our focus is on maligned foreign disinformation, that is foreign hostile actors who engage in covert efforts who refuse social media platforms which is something that is not seriously in dispute. >> laura: congressman, foreign hostile actors, last time i checked it was people who said they didn't believe in masking to stop covid. i mean, come on. >> that's exactly right. and this isn't just laura's opinion and mike johnson's opinion this is the federal court in louisiana that issued a 155 page opinion granting an injunction against the biden

administration, the doj, the fbi. because what the evidence in the case shows there is that they were colluding with and coercing the social media platforms to censor and silence conservatives online and laura it was not foreign actors these are american citizens expressing their thoughts and concerns about vaccine mandates and the efficacy of of the vaccine itself. and even parody about the president jokes about president biden wn were taken down from the internet because fbi found it disinformation which of course director wray and no one can define. it's a charade. the court said it was arguably the most massive attack on the first amendment right to free speech in american history and he is not overstating it. >> greg: congressman you actually asked the simple, straightforward question and just let it -- let the silence kind of take over the room. that was a great moment. thank you for asking that question. thank you for joining us tonight. >> and now, some american brands

have been severely damaged -- well, by themselves. raymond arroyo has all the gory details. seen and unseen is next.

mr. senna's into nature. professor kot's into science. but together, we work! like our senokot laxatives. to relieve occasional constipation, senokot's made from the senna plant. refined by science to be reliable. perfect match! just like us! hmph! senokot.

- [narrator] carvana has hundreds of thousands of five star reviews and counting. - this was our second purchase through carvana, it was really fast.

this time we traded in a car and next thing i know, our new car was here and our trade-in was gone. ta-da. - [narrator] buy your car with carvana today.

>> laura: time for our seen and unseen segment where we explore our cultural segments of the day and for that we're joined by fox news contributor raymond arroyo. ray, i know you saw a trend of once great american brands totally demolishing themselves. >> yeah, laura starting with president biden at nato. he never seems to know exactly what he's supposed to do at any given time and when i saw this moment, i thought, this must be how the oval office business is conducted on any given day. watch. just sign here mr. president. >> laura: whatever. >> just your signature. don't ask any questions, just

sign here. thank you. then biden delivered this speech laura, his big nato speech. bear in mind he rested all night to prepare for this performance and this exit. >> the first foreign visitor. soon nato will be 32nd freestanding, have, have 30 free -- 32 freestanding members. >> ceasing attacks, inhumane attacks on russia. i mean by russia on ukraine. may god protect the freedoms of the -- protectors of freedom. >> laura: oh, my god. raymond, this is -- i have to say, i'm watching this and i think, we went from reagan, mr. gorbachev tear down this wall to biden, just sign here.

lord knows what he was agreeing when he signed that. who knows what he gave away. >> exactly. just sign here and where do i go now? this is leadership on the world stage. but now enter brzezinski who blames all of what you just saw on the president seas staff. >> i think the staff sneads to own his age, i have to be honest i don't think they do a good job helping out the president and i'm not talking about it like -- i'm just saying if you are managing a president's schedule and you are managing a president getting on stage and getting off stage and getting on planes and getting off planes and, yes, he's 80. you need to be there for him [laughter]. >> laura, this is like a group delusion. you blame everybody but the guy who's wandering around and can't put a sentence together. unless the staff is filled with neurologists i don't know how they could help him. this is bizarre analysis on any level. >> laura: why don't she direct her wrath to dr. jill biden?

she's the one who takes him to the beach when the poor man can't lift a chair. she's the one who pushes him on the stage where he doesn't know where he is. but you notice how she leaves her out of the equation. hmm. odd. >> she does indeed. as biden damages the american brand a prerequisite dylan mulvaney has demolished bud light. a form anheuser-busch executive ansen he says this. >> this was a mistake we wouldn't do it again we lost billions of dollars in market cap our brands are down 30% and we're putting suppliers at risk they're laying off hundreds of people at jobs from some of the suppliers. >> meanwhile traveling abroad don't worry about the laid-off workers, dylan mulvaney feels unsafe. so the brand ambassador has found a sank twaefrjts surprise, i'm in peru and i'm at macho

peach eww. still haven't been kissed yet but i'm holding out hope. >> there are a lot of llamas in peru so maybe there's hope. >> laura: can i say something. >> go ahead. >> laura: the fake voice. it's all an act. don't you feel like we're all being punked here? i mean the voice, the kitchy kind of proechlt it's all so obvious like we are all being played here. >> and if you're so worried about your safety, why are you dropping a pin on your location in peru you may as well give them your address and phone number at this point. but if you want a clairing example laura of the fall of a once great-american brand look no further than the disney parks. look. they're mostly empty. this was the slowest july 4th weekend in nearly a decade. a friend sent this picture to me. these are the parks. wait times are cut in half and meanwhile their movies, light

year, strange world, elemental, even indiana jones, they've all flamed out at the box office. but this is what happens when you abuse your audience, insert politics in family entertainment and they don't want to hear it anymore. they simply walk away. this is how sound of freedom beat the great indiana jones. >> i love it, raymond i still can't get over the fact that a few years ago some disney minder was literally running after my sons and me at the park at quarter of 8:00 p.m. because we didn't have our masks on but we wanted to hit the last rides before the park closed, they were running, literally going to tackle us. we outran them though and still made the rides. >> news of the day, bob iger's extension as ceo has gone for another two years but, you know what? like a lot of franchises including indiana jones some shouldn't be revised too many times and this is one squall

that probably shouldn't. >> laura: raymond how many times have you been to disney. >> i've been going since i was five years old. >> laura: 41, 42. >> almost every year of my life sometimes twice. >> laura: so if you're saying this, disney should pay attention if raymond arroyo is saying this because you're a big fan of disney. >> too expensive 300 bucks a per per day, come on. and 30 bucks in parking. come on. >> laura: a fast pass to our next break raymond thank you. if you thought radical teachers and administrators were after your kids before what's just been uncovered inside a seattle middle school is going to be chilling to you. that investigation, it's amazing and it's next. we're traveling all across america talking to people about their hearts. ooh, take this exit.

♪ >> laura: now if you thought gender indoctrination happening

behind your back was bad enough, wait until you hear this next story. documents obtained by parents defending education reveal that certain seattle public schools offer so-called gender reaffirming care on site at the school to students as young as 11 years old. one of those schools, meeni middle school reveals right on the web site that this, quote, health center is conveniently located across from the school's main office. and as you can see here, one of the medical services provided at no cost include, again, so-called gender affirming care. so how is this all paid for? well, partially by seattle taxpayers who voted for this investment back in 2018. but they're also supported by something called the country doctor community health centers. well, on their web site, the country doctor explains that it was founded by the black panthers in conjunction with the

seattle liberation front. it describes itself and its mission as helping the underserved access healthcare. how sick. joining me now, nicole neely founder and president of parents defending education, the organization responsible for bringing this shocking story to light. nicole, thank you for being with us tonight. now, we reached out to the middle school, the country doctor, and the seattle government. the seattle public school district did respond on the school's behalf saying in part, access to these services enables to early intervention, prevention and treatment of health-related barriers to learning what the goal of promoting school attendance and improved academic performance. how is gender "affirming" care improving academic performance? >> well, this is something that america's families need to know is being pushed at all levels of education. it's something certainly

happening in seattle but should worry families around the country. we have found programs like this in california and certainly it's taking place in other schools as well. because this is a priority of organizations like teachers unions, randi weingarten that believe that community schools putting health centers into schools, providing things from dental service, mental healthcare, to these reproductive services, gender affirming care, it takes a burden off families and again, underserved families, poor families, minority families that it's easier for mom and dad to not take time off of work so we'll just do it all in the school so again this is done behind closed doors and families have no idea what is happening on to them. and for this to be done to our children with our tax dollars is truly insult to injury. >> laura: our producer nicole went on that meeni middle school health center web page and dug into the registration forms for students to receive these services and she was shocked to find out that not only can

students receive and access this, quote, affirming care that they can register for. they can also get birth control pregnancy and abortion services at any age and then our producer went to submit the form -- sorry, he noticed that only one signature was required to register for this healthcare and in washington state, minors, we know, can get abortion and abortion-related services at any age without any consent of any authorized adult. nicole, i don't think americans watching this program tonight, watching the angle, have any idea this is happening. >> no, the medical age of consent in washington state is 13, in california it's 12. and as we watch some of these abortion bills make their way through the states in the wake of the dobbs decision this is something abortion activists are pushing at the state level where they're trying do this under the guise of empowering children, we don't want children to have stds

to get pregnant but then also at the same time it is stripping away parental notification, parental care so a parent can come home and find their daughter bleeding out on the bathroom floor no idea why or how it came to this and not be able to access the medical records to figure out what was going on. it's interfering with the right to raids our children to make medical decisions for them and to keep them safe. it is pauling that this is being done in public schools. >> laura: nicole thank you for bringing this to light. we really appreciate it. now we just got our hands on a preview of the gop presidential primary, the last bite reveals it next.
