Dana Perino
Hello, everyone. I'm Dana Perino along with Emily Compagno, Jessica Tarlov, Jesse Waters, Charlie Hurt. It's five o' clock in New York City and this is the fight. There's a united front at the White House. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth pushing back hard on a leaked Pentagon report, an early low confidence damage assessment that claimed US Strikes only set Iran's nuclear program back by three months. Now the Pentagon showing this footage as part of its response of a previous test and Secretary Hegseth maintaining the strikes were devastated.
- [00:42]
Jesse Waters
President Trump directed the most complex and.
- [00:45]
Charlie Hurt
Secretive military operation in history and it was a resounding success. I can say here that the assessment is that we significantly damaged the nuclear program, setting it back by years, I repeat, years. Those that understand, those that see, those.
- [01:01]
Jesse Waters
That do proper assessments, recognize that what.
- [01:04]
Charlie Hurt
The United States military did was historic.
- [01:07]
Dana Perino
And hexa saving some of his ammo for the media that he accuses of undermining the military service members who flew the mission.
- [01:15]
Charlie Hurt
It's like in your DNA and in.
- [01:17]
Jesse Waters
Your blood to cheer against Trump because you want him not to be successful so bad. You, you have to cheer against the.
- [01:24]
Charlie Hurt
Efficacy of these strikes.
- [01:26]
Jesse Waters
You have to hope maybe they weren't.
- [01:28]
Charlie Hurt
Effective, maybe the way the Trump administration has represented him isn't true.
- [01:32]
Jesse Waters
So let's take half truths, spun information, leaked information, and then spin it.
- [01:40]
Dana Perino
As for plugging the leak, White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt says the FBI is on the case and she added this, it's illegal and they should be.
- [01:49]
Emily Compagno
Held accountable for that.
- [01:51]
Dana Perino
Leaked bits and pieces of an intel.
- [01:53]
Emily Compagno
Assessment to push a false name narrative. Someone who had their hands on this and it was a very few people, very few number of people in our.
- [02:01]
Dana Perino
Government who saw this report.
- [02:04]
Emily Compagno
That person was irresponsible with it and we need to get to the bottom of it.
- [02:08]
Dana Perino
President Trump warning of harsh consequences if that leaker is caught. He posted on Truth Social, the Democrats are the ones who leaked the information on the Perfect Flight to the nuclear sites in Iran. They should be prosecuted. All right, lots to get to. You know, I don't think, Jesse, that it's irresponsible of the media to say, well, what was the efficacy of and the results of the strike? But to go forward with the Defense Intelligence Agency low confidence report as if it was gospel and then it just like it was like a wildfire all across the media does seem a little irresponsible.
- [02:43]
Jesse Waters
It is. And we were so proud to hear from this general about this mission. It makes you almost cry, almost cry. But to hear that this guy studied this mountain for 15 years and spoke to geologists and industry and explosive experts. And then 15 years later, they get the go ahead and these pilots go in and it's a 37 hour flight and they basically drop six bombs down this air shaft. Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish. From 15,000ft. The perfection and the precision, it's just incredible. And so it's obviously a successful hit. And the pilots even said it was, I think, the darkest night of the month. And they said all of a sudden it was like daytime. It was the brightest and most ferocious explosion they've ever witnessed. And they even practiced it on dummy mountains. And so, you know, everyone's feeling this huge swelling of patriotism. And then CNN comes along and sullies it. Now, CNN says we didn't do anything wrong, But CNN spent 48 hours with guests at the top of every single hour saying the mission failed, saying the bombs didn't work, says the Iranians still have a nuclear program. What kind of effect does that have? You're basically taking classified information and using it to undermine the Commander in Chief and cast doubt on the effectiveness of the American military capabilities and putting the Commander in Chief at a disadvantage when he's trying to maintain a ceasefire. It's treasonous. That's the T word. Jessica and Cash and Bongino are going to be looking at these congressmen now because I have a suspect list. I feel like I know who this person was. And you can easily find them. There's a limited amount of people that access this intelligence. You go and see who got access to it and then you narrow it down and then you get a warrant for their phone so they better lawyer up because someone's going to go to prison for a very long time. I really think that when you add up the Israelis, even the Iranians, the CIA, the dni, the Pentagon, they all say the same thing. They hit pay dirt. The only one saying it wasn't a righteous shot was the Ayatollah and cnn. And the only reason the Ayatollah is saying that is because he's bluffing, if.
- [05:17]
Dana Perino
He'S really saying it at all himself.
- [05:18]
Jesse Waters
The Ayatollah.
- [05:19]
Dana Perino
Exactly. I think, Charlie, one of the things about this is that because America and Israel did something remarkable and outstanding for the world in terms, I believe, in terms of the peaceful nature of the future of the world, there is the possibility of a regional transformation. You now know that because of this action, if Iran isn't on the threshold of a nuclear weapon, they're basically like Oman. And so they don't have that. And now you have the possibility of expanding the Abraham Accords in a different Middle East.
- [05:53]
Charlie Hurt
Yeah. And I think that President Trump will get the same credit from these people that he got for the Abraham Accords, which were certainly among the one or two most significant things to happen in terms of world peace in the Middle east over the past several decades. A problem that is so intractable that, you know, every great statesman that's been produced in the past half century has basically lost in their efforts to try to bring peace there. And I agree. I'm hopeful. You know, I was, you know, I was kind of amused listening to everybody talk about how the MAGA base was gonna split in two over this. I always kind of find it funny when people suddenly become experts on Trump voters. They've been scornful of Trump voters forever, and then suddenly they're experts on it. I think that most Trump voters, they don't want to get into another war by any means. But if you had an option to either silence or put Iran out of commission, or at the very least take a nuclear weapon out of their hands, 90% of Trump voters would be like, yeah, that seems like a step in the right direction. And you're right, if this does happen, you're talking about an expansion of the Abraham Accords, a building on the Abraham Accords that we could have only dreamed of a couple of years ago. The people at cnn, these people, they're never going to give him credit for this. And in fact, I think that it actually is part of what drives them so insanely crazy is that they see him bringing this level, actual common sense, non ideological approach to these problems with fresh thinking, and then he gets solutions and actually gets people talking to one another. And I think it worsens the Trump derangement syndrome. It's almost like it takes it to a whole new level of fevered pitch. They just freak out. And I'm sorry that these people are gonna suffer so bad, badly about this, but I would rather have, you know, a peaceful world and peaceful Middle East.
- [07:54]
Dana Perino
Emily, I was thinking about you today because part of the briefing this morning was a real chance to honor, thank and celebrate the men and women who worked on this mission and had. They've worked on it their entire lives. They've practiced, as Jesse was saying, they've practiced this. They knew the mission. And also for the young people that were there under attack in Qatar, at our base there, you're closest, I think, to the military here. What do you think that meant for them or to them?
- [08:21]
Emily Compagno
An exceptional message of gratitude and honor that they so richly deserve. And I think so much of these military operations, the success, the efficacy depends on this absolute, perfect, magical collaboration between hundreds of thousands of people in all different forms and positions and functions. And when it's executed properly and it looks effortless, people think it's easy. But the reality is that it takes generations of institutional knowledge and that patriotism, that skill set that we can only find here. So I was deeply appreciative, simply as an American to witness that. And I agree with you that it was a ripe moment to express that gratitude, finally, for these troops under this, with this administration. Part of the hypocrisy, I find, with the media in terms of the reliance on this outlier report, is that it's the same members of the media that are saying, well, it's going to take some time for us to be sure. So if that were true, why then did they pounce so immediately on the low confidence outlier leaked report, premature and uncollaborated to have that finding? Right. And we understand, of course, that it's one of multiple. But I think the worst part about their deceit is maybe not even just the deceit, but the fact that they fail to celebrate an American success and the choose your own adventure, the option that sees the expansion of the Abraham Accords, potential peace, prosperity and total liberation, and that somehow they cannot celebrate that because of who the commander in chief was. And we know that it's political because we saw this under the prior administration. Right. There was a complete reliance, rightly so, on the presidency of the intelligence community. But the media ran with that. They had no problem waiting for consensus and confirmed reporting. Right. Remember that, the Afghanistan withdrawal, when we were told by this administration that the Afghan government would be in effect and remain in power for a really long time. Well, clearly that was dead wrong, but the media had no problem furthering that. And the Chinese spy balloon, which was why Biden shot it down over the water, and of course, the 51 intelligence officials, former, who signed that letter to the same Natasha Bertrand. So the whole point is, we see here that only now, with this particular commander in chief, do they choose to report and amplify the drivel that first comes out.
- [10:37]
Dana Perino
Well, a lot of that same media just occurs to me, Jessica, they were the ones who had a hard time saying that Biden's Afghanistan withdrawal was a failure.
- [10:44]
Jessica Tarlov
Really? Maybe it's just my lived experience, but I felt like everybody was talking about how terrible that was. And we had reports right away that there were people within the administration who told him, we don't think that you can move this quickly. We know that this is the right end result, but this process will not work. Folks who worked for him in the Pentagon. So I don't know. That's just my view on it. I also don't know how many reporters there would be who got the opportunity to report that early intelligence brief on what had happened and wouldn't have put it out there. And then after it came from cnn, it was confirmed by other outlets. Listen, Donald Trump hates the press. It's his number one witch hunt or whatever. And Secretary Hegseth knows how to please his boss. And that was a performance.
- [11:35]
Emily Compagno
Biased press. They don't hate the press, but they.
- [11:37]
Jessica Tarlov
Decide who's biased on a daily basis. He does it all the time. He goes, oh, you're not so bad today. And then tomorrow he says, oh, wait, I hate you again. So Secretary Heitseth was, that's fine. But it doesn't change the reality of it that he, the way that he speaks to them, the way that he discredits genuine questions. And it happened today with Secretary Hegseth and the questioning about, you know, what changed over the last three days. Right. That you are now willing to say this was total obliteration when you said the reports are going to come in over time. And I know that it went well because we got the review from Trump one of the greatest, most professional and most confirming news conferences I've ever seen. The fake news should have everyone involved in. We should fire everyone involved in the witch hunt and apologize to our great warriors. I haven't seen anyone minimizing the warriors. Asking questions about where 400 pounds of 60% enriched uranium is, is not minimizing what these warriors did. And we should note as well that the people in the intel community, they're warriors as well, and they get diminished constantly. Talks about the deep state, et cetera. The European intel agencies are reporting that the uranium is intact. Senator Chris Murphy, a Democrat, Jessica, the.
- [12:51]
Jesse Waters
Europeans, we were telling them Russia was going to invade Ukraine for a year, and they were like, no, I don't, I don't see it. Listen, I think American and Israeli intelligence is much crisper.
- [13:00]
Jessica Tarlov
Well, the senators were briefed today. Tom Cotton comes out and he said it was not part of the mission to destroy the uranium. Well, why wouldn't it be? If you thought that all the uranium was in, why wouldn't you have wanted a weapon? Okay, so is no one concerned that there's 900 pounds of uranium maybe in a truck driving around the mountains there.
- [13:21]
Jesse Waters
He says he hasn't seen any intelligence that they took it out in trucks. And the guest today on Martha said those trucks that they saw parked next to the mountain are not capable of bringing uranium out of there.
- [13:32]
Jessica Tarlov
Well, Senator Chris Murphy, who was also in attendance said that saw no evidence of this has pushed back the the nuclear project any more than a few months. So we'll let time will tell. But I thought it was a very.
- [13:45]
Charlie Hurt
Clear sign of acceptability for denigrating people between the intelligence figures and ICE agents. Why is it acceptable to denigrate ICE agents but it's not acceptable to denigrate the leakers in the intelligence community?
- [14:02]
Jessica Tarlov
Well, I don't, first of all, I'm talking about the intelligence community writ large. But if you're talking about an ICE agent who's masked and pulling someone out of a Home Depot, no, I just say don't do it. I don't say, I don't call them a bad person. I know they're following orders. I've seen Tom Holman and Stephen Miller.
- [14:19]
Dana Perino
All right, up next, Democrats in full on freakout mode over the rise of socialist mayoral candidate Zoran Mamdani.
- [14:36]
Charlie Hurt
Are you wondering how can.
- [14:39]
Dana Perino
Your gut affects everything, even your mood?
- [14:41]
Jessica Tarlov
So Ollie created two brand new products.
- [14:43]

Jesse Waters
Get ready for what Wall Street's calling hot commie summer. Axios reports that establishment Democrats are melting down a quote full on freakout over socialist Zoran the Destroyer crushing Andrew Cuomo in the New York City's mayor's race. Donors are fearful he could hurt the party's brand nationally. Comrade Z wants to defund the police, legalize prostitution, and he sees this as a model for the nation.
- [15:41]
Emily Compagno
Do you think that is a platform.
- [15:43]
Dana Perino
That would work for other candidates running.
- [15:45]
Jessica Tarlov
In other parts of the country?
- [15:46]
Charlie Hurt
Absolutely.
- [15:47]
Jesse Waters
I think ultimately this is a campaign about inequality and you don't have to.
- [15:53]
Emily Compagno
Live in the most expensive city in.
- [15:54]
Charlie Hurt
The country to have experienced that inequality because it's a national issue in focusing.
- [15:58]
Jesse Waters
On working people and their struggles. We also return back to what makes so many of us proud to be Democrats in the first place. Dana, are the Republicans happy about Zo Ron the Destroyer?
- [16:11]
Dana Perino
I think it's mixed, yes, in a way. I do think that they think, okay, well, we can really go after this guy. And in a way, it's only Trump's campaign who was able to match the kind of TikTok ness of the campaign tactics that he had. If you think about Cuomo wanting to run against this guy, he was basically running a campaign from the 1970s. Like, it felt so old and the messaging was old. And then you have Mandani, who it's like, even if you were not into the policies, you're kind of taken in by the look and feel and the vibe of the campaign. So I think there's that. But I also think there are plenty of Republicans who think this is actually dangerous. You have people who support him saying, but real socialism has never been tried.
- [16:58]
Charlie Hurt
Oh, gosh.
- [16:59]
Dana Perino
As if, you know, as if basically, again, you go back to the fact that nobody goes to school, nobody knows their history, et cetera. I also think that the city has been hollowed out of a lot of families. Right. It's very difficult, very expensive to raise families in this city.
- [17:13]
Emily Compagno
So.
- [17:13]
Dana Perino
So you have a lot of young single people that are here and you have a lot of older white liberals that really liked it. And then you had the low income people who are saying they don't want him. This is going to be a big fight. To me, Eric Adams feels a little low energy, and I don't think he understands the way to try to beat him. Look at, like, we're just showing the video here. It's pretty amazing.
- [17:35]
Jesse Waters
Yeah, I'm liking this.
- [17:36]
Dana Perino
The question I would like to ask him is, what does he think happened to the $1 billion that Bill de Blasio gave to his wife to work on homeless issues in this city? Gave her a billion dollars. Take it over. Do whatever you need. They lost all the money. Where do you think it went? What do you think went wrong? Government was in charge then. What do you think, sir, went wrong there? Where did that money go? Is it a bad thing that that money was lost? Who do you think that money came from, et cetera? There's so many questions you could put to him, but if it's a campaign on vibes, he's got the edge.
- [18:08]
Jesse Waters
Hot commie summer. You psyched?
- [18:11]
Charlie Hurt
Yeah. So on the one, first of all, I love the idea that somebody like Andrew Cuomo paid a price for his handling the COVID I think that's fantastic. Unfortunately, this is probably not the right lesson to learn from it. Government run grocery stores are not. Can you imagine getting your groceries from somebody that is. It looks like one of the people that mans the stations in the subway and cares about your food delivery, your food order, as much as that person cares about your safety? It's not going to be pretty. The other thing that I do love about this is that there are a few places that are bluer political entities than New York City. And this is a confirmation that Democrat policies absolutely fail. Even Democrat voters hate Democrat policies because they have rejected normal Democrat policies in favor of this loony stuff. And as for. I'm sure Republicans who live here are not too excited about this, but if you're President Trump and you're a Republican running anywhere else in the country, you know, we're not making this stuff up. There really are people who believe this stuff, who believe in socialism, and there are voters who support it. And that is very, very good for Republicans.
- [19:30]
Jesse Waters
On a scale of 1 to 10, Jessica, how scared are you if he wins?
- [19:36]
Jessica Tarlov
He's not. He's not my first choice, to say the least. No, listen, there is, there are many issues that I have with his platform. I don't think feasible to have a $30 minimum wage. If you want to say that we should have more food pantries instead of government run grocery stores, I think we could talk about that. But you know, pie in the sky kind of stuff that you often hear from the left, though people did tell Bill de Blasio that universal Pre K was pie in the sky. And we have it now and everybody loves it and takes advantage of it. People who even would technically have enough money for private school, because the public schools have gotten better in the city in certain areas are using it. And then there's the whole conversation about positions that he's taken, like supporting the BDS movement. His statement that came out on October 8 after the atrocity of October 7, which also condemned Israel. Those are things that are very difficult for me. But two things are important. One, he wasn't running against your average member of the Democratic establishment. Andrew Cuomo was a pretty uniquely flawed candidate for this. And like Dana said, he ran a lifeless campaign. I watched a lot of the events, know a lot of people who worked in his orbit, and it was pretty joyless. And Mamdani was joyful every single second that he was doing this, even when he was getting grilled about past positions that he's taken. You Know, how are you going to get this to work? He looked like he was having a blast. And on the question of where you say, well, socialism doesn't work, there's a real split between what younger people think socialism means and what older people think socialism means. Younger people think it means tax the rich. Older people think it means bread lines. And that's where you're seeing this real division.
- [21:24]
Dana Perino
But people who don't know their history are doomed to repeat it.
- [21:28]
Jessica Tarlov
Like I said, he wasn't my top choice.
- [21:31]
Jesse Waters
So it does look like this guy is about vibes and the Democrats, all they care about is someone who looks like they're having a good time. Doesn't matter what their as long as they look like they're having fun.
- [21:41]
Emily Compagno
That's the only acceptable explanation for this. Because to me, this is a joyfully wrapped, total anti sedomite that is hell bent on destroying the city even further. I spoke with a prominent New York City businessman earlier today and he said, you know, you asked her if she was scared. He said, as a Jew, I'm angry, scared and abandoned. He said, I'm scared my kids will not be able to live in America. He said, this is how it starts by that one on your screen. And he said, this isn't as much about Mamdani as it is my friends and neighbors abandoning us. So everyone here in this borough that voted for that totally and utterly abandoned the Jewish community here and across the world. And I think it is fantastic to even entertain his policies that are rooted in utter nonsense. So you have America's worst Mayor de Blasio, who came and said, well, he was successful because he talked about kitchen table issues, direct quote, he said, rent, affordability. People are struggling to make ends meet. He talked about the basics of life, food. First of all, that's not what this person was talking about. Mamdani is talking about handouts. He's talking about gimmicks. He's diving in the Hudson while he wants everyone to have free everything. The reason older people think of socialism as breadlines is because they lived it. Because they lived through World War II and through communist adventures that were utterly destructive and fatal. So everyone who has the luxury here of voting for Mamdani, which I find it ironic because despite those, those who are struggling for basics and struggling to make ends meet, as de Blasio said, those guys voted for Cuomo. It was your typical rich, over educated, elite snobs that voted for mom Donnie. And the fact that they overlook the fact that he hates Jews is the worst Thing of all.
- [23:21]
Jesse Waters
Well, you could still doordash the bread. You could just have the delivery guy wait in line for you. Problem solved. Up next, Jasmine Crockett thinks it's racist to deport dangerous criminal migrants.
- [23:40]
Jessica Tarlov
An illegal alien from Guatemala.
- [23:49]
Emily Compagno
The left just won't stop covering for the dangerous migrant criminals that President Trump is deporting. Let's start with their rising star, Jasmine Crockett. She thinks it's xenophobic to call criminals criminals. When you start to decide that just because somebody came from another country, they are automatically some kind of criminal. That does sound kind of xenophobic to me. Another Democratic congresswoman thinks it's a dog whistle to call bloodthirsty gang members by their gang name. Trinder Era has become a dog whistle to justify every racist, xenophobic action this administration wants to take, particularly against Latino men. Jesse, we need to stop saying trend. Iragua. Now we might offend the libs.
- [24:34]
Jesse Waters
I like saying it Trend. It's the only Spanish name I could say.
- [24:39]
Charlie Hurt
I believe those are enough.
- [24:41]
Jesse Waters
Trend. Is that better term? Trend.
- [24:46]
Charlie Hurt
Was that better?
- [24:46]
Dana Perino
A little better.
- [24:47]
Jesse Waters
All right. Spanglish with Waters, the woman who we just saw. I think because I'm a mind reader, she wants there to be white migrant gangs. I believe that she is upset, maybe ashamed, embarrassed, that most of the criminal gangs are Latin and she wished they were, like, English nationals who were committing crimes that need to be deported, like the Cornwallis Crew or something like that. I'm sorry, there's not a lot of those people in this country anymore. But white violence, in terms of the migrant factor, not a problem. Charlie and I have our own Oyster Shucker Crew, but we're citizens. As far as Jasmine goes. I researched her, and it's never good when I do that. I found out she's single, she's 43, she's never been married, and I'm trying to figure out what makes her tick. I think I can set her up with someone.
- [25:45]
Emily Compagno
Oh, my God.
- [25:46]
Jesse Waters
I know a guy in D.C. emily. He's white. Hopefully that's not a problem. But he will make her happy, and maybe then she will not hate everybody else besides herself so much. So, if you're interested, I will set it up, and it would be my pleasure to do it.
- [26:05]
Emily Compagno
Okay. Yes to that. We'll circle back on that. All right, so, Jessica Nicole Wallace.
- [26:10]
Charlie Hurt
Sarcastic.
- [26:11]
Jessica Tarlov
I was sort of just trying to.
- [26:13]
Emily Compagno
I don't know how to.
- [26:14]
Jessica Tarlov
It was really bad.
- [26:16]
Jesse Waters
It was the best thing.
- [26:17]
Dana Perino
I said, this guy is.
- [26:19]
Jessica Tarlov
I don't think he's real.
- [26:23]
Emily Compagno
Oh, my God, Jessica. So Nicole Wallace. I wish I didn't feel so gutted. I wish I could stop thinking about those guys being scared in El Salvador. This is a bleeding heart, Lib. These guys are driving the media narrative. What about the worry and the fear for Americans who were scared here, like, scared for their lives, like Lake and Wright, like, there's so many people who are in this position. Why do they always prioritize the illegal criminals first?
- [26:47]
Jessica Tarlov
Because the people that she's talking about are not criminals. 75% of the 238 men that were sent to see COT have no criminal conviction. New data is out on who's been arrested in Los Angeles. 70% of the people who've been taken in, no criminal conviction. Right now. ICE has, according to their own numbers, they've detained 59,047% of them. No criminal convictions. That's what people wanted worst first. That's not what they're getting. Which is why Donald Trump's approval on immigration has plummeted. That's what Nicole Wallace is talking about. That's what Jasmine Crockett is talking about. And I think if you talk to the average person on the street, especially in one of these cities, but if you say, do you consider someone who's here illegally, who has committed no crime on US Soil, to be a criminal? They would say no. Because the majority of Americans think that if you've been here and you haven't committed a crime, go about your business. $25 billion. Yeah, 25 billion in Social Security taxes that they're paying in. These are people being picked up at the job sites out of immigration court. Americans don't like that.
- [27:52]
Emily Compagno
But the majority of Americans do support the president's immigration policies, Dana. And at the end of the day, these are elected officials saying this. Well, Tom Holman can't even live with his family because of death threats.
- [28:01]
Dana Perino
So crossing the border illegally or overstaying your visa illegally is illegal. And if they want to change that, they're in the perfect position to do that. They are in Congress. In addition, I think Jazzy, which I learned that's who they call her on the Gutfeld show. When I was on last night, they called. That's our Jazzy. What a perfect person to say. Mr. President, can I come see you? I'd like a word. I'd like to bring a couple people. We have an idea. Donald Trump would say, yeah, sure, come on, let's have a conversation. And if they went and said, we're concerned about these guys, we know they cross illegally. Okay. They should have to pay a price for that. But they've been lawful ever since they have kids here. Is there something we could do? Is there something we could put into this big, beautiful bill that might, like, pass your muster with that you'd be okay with? Could I work with you? Could I try to bring enough Democrats to vote on something like this? If they wanted to come to a solution, they have the perfect person in the Oval Office in order to do that.
- [29:02]
Emily Compagno
That logic continues.
- [29:04]
Dana Perino
Oh, precisely.
- [29:05]
Emily Compagno
I love it.
- [29:06]
Charlie Hurt
Yeah. Because I mean, and of course, we saw in the first term where President Trump tried to make a deal with the dreamers. Of course Democrats didn't want to do that because they want the issue and not the solution. Look, if you want to know when people have absolutely nothing constructive to do, they start playing word games. And when you start playing word games with illegal alien, by the way, illegal alien is the actual term that's in federal code. So they could change that when they're changing the rules. When you're playing word games, you don't actually have a solution. And this is why voters have thrown them out of power from the Senate and the White House. And I think look at them as being fundamentally unserious on important issues that matter to them.
- [29:48]
Dana Perino
Right.
- [29:49]
Emily Compagno
All right, guys, stay tuned. Rosie o' Donnell unpacks the side effects of hating Trump for a living.
- [30:04]
Jesse Waters
You want to go for a ride?
- [30:10]
Charlie Hurt
It's CBS Thursday. Quite quiet down, kids. The Hollywood celeb who fled the country over djt. Rosie o' Donnell is sharing some of the startling symptoms of living with Trump Derangement syndrome during his first go round.
- [30:26]
Dana Perino
It was very difficult and I got myself into some bad places. You know, I was very, very depressed. I was overeating. I was over drinking. Coming to Ireland was totally a way to take care of myself and my non binary autistic child.
- [30:43]
Charlie Hurt
Yikes. So, Dana, you have been around politics most of your adult life and I have never seen you unwell or needing to be carried off to the insane asylum.
- [30:54]
Dana Perino
You know, what's interesting is I always feel like politics might be what I do, but it's not who I am.
- [30:59]
Charlie Hurt
Right.
- [30:59]
Dana Perino
And I enjoy politics. I like learning about it. I like the policies. I like to dig deep. I like the tactics and everything, but I don't feel like I need to get in the mud.
- [31:14]
Charlie Hurt
It's a platform to other things that are more important. You have other.
- [31:19]
Dana Perino
I have a great job. I've had an amazing career. I work with the best people. I get to meet all sorts of people across the country. I love getting out and I love this bubble, even if he becomes mayor. But I like getting out and I like seeing people. It's giving me. It's opened a door for me that has actually opened my life to more joy rather than for some people. Like, if it. If politics makes you that miserable.
- [31:42]
Charlie Hurt
Exactly.
- [31:42]
Dana Perino
Then you should move to Ireland. But here's the other thing you should do. Don't go on the podcast.
- [31:47]
Charlie Hurt
Exactly.
- [31:47]
Dana Perino
Stop taking the media requests and actually take care of yourself and your child.
- [31:51]
Charlie Hurt
So, Jesse, at the risk of getting you fired, do you have any advice for Rosie?
- [31:56]
Jesse Waters
Yeah, I would keep doing this because we're using it at 8 every day of the week. Remember Britney Spears? We used to kind of like, watch her over the course of a couple years. Crash. We're doing that right now with Bieber, or at least I'm watching it. No one else is following this. I watch TMZ a lot. We're seeing it now with Rosie. And you know, the left likes to make heroes out of broken people. And if you look around at all the people they put on a pedestal, I mean, a lot of them are in prison. A lot of them have disfigured their bodies. She's obviously psychologically wounded and getting a lot worse, but I need her to continue because we do waters cooler on Wednesdays.
- [32:39]
Charlie Hurt
You do it every night and you need material.
- [32:41]
Jesse Waters
I usually like it when she has a squirrel. I feel like it's getting sadder and I actually start to feel sorry for her. Even I feel sorry for her.
- [32:48]
Dana Perino
It's like you could interview her for the next version of Get It Together.
- [32:52]
Jesse Waters
Yes.
- [32:52]
Dana Perino
She's like, the perfect one.
- [32:54]
Charlie Hurt
So, Jessica, some of my favorite people are people I disagree with almost all the time. What? Like, seriously, what's wrong with her?
- [33:02]
Jessica Tarlov
I don't know. I feel really bad for her, though, because it seems like she's deeply affected. I mean, why would you wish a life of anxiety and fear on anyone?
- [33:11]
Charlie Hurt
I don't think anybody does, do they?
- [33:12]
Jessica Tarlov
Well, I just said I feel bad for her.
- [33:14]
Dana Perino
And I said so.
- [33:17]
Jessica Tarlov
I was just having a conversation. Yeah, I feel bad. And not to make this about my TV consumership, but this season of and just like that is the worst season of television. The people who love the show, like me, want it off the air, and she was a part of that. And so that is what makes me angry at her.
- [33:39]
Charlie Hurt
Emily, any health advice for Rosie o' Donnell?
- [33:41]
Emily Compagno
Look, Rosie, move on. So she moves to a new country to escape this way. And instead of contributing Meaningfully or learning that culture. She is just still obsessing over Trump. It's like, I can't. And then she says, someone even cursed at us in CVS. Oh, that happened to you once. Walked down 6th Avenue for one block. I mean, I find it so laughable because, again, it's the luxury of having that experience. And it reminds me, too, by the way of my old dance team's director, who when people would get benched for gaining weight, she would say, I didn't put the food in your mouth. So guess what? Trump didn't put the food in your mouth. You did that yourself.
- [34:17]
Jesse Waters
Wait, they bench you for gaining weight?
- [34:20]
Emily Compagno
Let's go to commercial break, and I'll talk to you about it today.
- [34:22]
Jesse Waters
They weighed you.
- [34:23]
Emily Compagno
We got a break. Okay, I gotta go.
- [34:26]
Charlie Hurt
This is true. The fastest.
- [34:27]
Dana Perino
I gotta hear this.
- [34:36]
Jesse Waters
A spotlight theme is designed to be what is dedication?
- [34:39]
Emily Compagno
The thing that drives me every day as a dad is Dariana.
- [34:42]
Charlie Hurt
We call him Day Date for short.
- [34:44]
Emily Compagno
Every day, he's hungry for something, whether it's attention, affection, knowledge. And there's this huge responsibility in making sure that when he's no longer under my wing that he's a good person. I want him to be able to sit back one day and go, we worked together. We did a good job.
- [34:59]
Charlie Hurt
That's dedication.

It's the viral craze exploding on social media. Influencers are taping their mouth shut at night, claiming it helps them get better sleep. But is it dangerous? Some experts cite safety concerns. They say the benefits are mostly anecdotal, with few studies backing it up. Charlie, are you a mouth breather? I feel like you are, right? I think most men are, like, overnight.
- [35:39]
Charlie Hurt
Is that like a finger sniffer?
- [35:41]
Jessica Tarlov
No, it's like, how do you. How do you stay alive?
- [35:43]
Charlie Hurt
I'm not a mouth breathe. No, no.
- [35:44]
Jessica Tarlov
You sleep with your mouth breath.
- [35:45]
Charlie Hurt
No, I breathe.
- [35:46]
Emily Compagno
How do you stay?
- [35:46]
Charlie Hurt
With my nose? No, but. No. I think this seems very dangerous.
- [35:49]
Jessica Tarlov
Yeah.
- [35:50]
Charlie Hurt
If I walked in and my wife or one of my children with tape over their mouth, I would grab my gun out of the. Out of the nightstand and shoot everything that moved in the house.
- [36:00]
Jessica Tarlov
I took it.
- [36:01]
Dana Perino
But not the dogs.
- [36:02]
Charlie Hurt
Not the dogs. Yeah, but the dogs. If somebody broke in and tried to kidnap my family, the dogs probably wouldn't wake up.
- [36:10]
Jessica Tarlov
Okay, Dana, are you pursuing one?
- [36:14]
Dana Perino
I think like. Like the coconut cult. Just a trend, guys. Not true. The defined jaw structure and Protecting dental health. These are the things that men actually think is helping. And I talked to a doctor today who said that's not true.
- [36:29]
Charlie Hurt
I love that you actually did your homework on this.
- [36:31]
Dana Perino
I usually only read the E block because that's the story we didn't do on Newsroom.
- [36:36]
Jessica Tarlov
Oh, there we go. Are you going to put this on?
- [36:39]
Emily Compagno
You want me to put it on?
- [36:39]
Jesse Waters
Jessica, you want me to do it, don't you? You want me to. You've always wanted to.
- [36:42]
Jessica Tarlov
Well, I prepared.
- [36:43]
Jesse Waters
I'd rather you have put it on. Could you put it on?
- [36:45]
Jessica Tarlov
Well, I'm leading the block, so I can't.
- [36:46]
Jesse Waters
God.
- [36:48]
Jessica Tarlov
Everything feels lighter, huh?
- [36:51]
Emily Compagno
This looks sort of like you need.
- [36:53]
Dana Perino
A bigger piece of tape.
- [36:55]
Jesse Waters
Shut up, Tana. Now your turn, Jessica.
- [36:59]
Jessica Tarlov
Emily, are you persuaded to give it a go?
- [37:01]
Emily Compagno
No, TikTok is trash. Remember what happened to the tide pods, everyone. Here's the other thing. I think it's obvious why that guy got millions of views. I think it's obvious why Ashton hall is popular. Visually, everyone, it doesn't matter what he's putting on his face. No one's looking at his face. Yeah, exactly. But also, I mean, I think we know who we all want this to be.
- [37:19]
Jesse Waters
Put on the libs, Jessica. What?
- [37:23]
Jessica Tarlov
The lid.
- [37:24]
Emily Compagno
I rest my case.
- [37:24]
Jesse Waters
Just put it on. Jessica.
- [37:25]
Emily Compagno
Live with a B Libs.
- [37:28]
Jessica Tarlov
I stuck it down. Now one more thing is up.
- [37:31]
Jesse Waters
Put it on.
- [37:32]
Emily Compagno
Put it.
- [37:46]
Dana Perino
It's time now for one more thing. So Bill Malusian has filled in for Bill Hammer all week, and he has put up with a lot of my shenanigans with tick tock hate. And we had one today for the ages. Flo Rida and Nephew. International Nephew. They were here for Fox and Friends and they came up and did a fit. Check with us. Here's a quick snippet. Where's this app from?
- [38:08]
Emily Compagno
This is a little merry. You know, bleary.
- [38:11]
Dana Perino
Got the glue shade.
- [38:13]
Emily Compagno
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Little part of the purple jeans.
- [38:17]
Dana Perino
They also said 5050 on the wrist. And I was like, what does that mean? Now I. Now I know you can see all that at Dana Perino. It was fun, Jesse.
- [38:28]
Jesse Waters
He's been doing a good job. I listened to him on Sirius this morning.
- [38:31]
Dana Perino
Flo Rida.
- [38:32]
Jesse Waters
No, Phil Bellucci. Flo Rida's doing a great job, too. No disrespect. We got Johnny at the mermaid parade. Here's a little clip.
- [38:42]
Dana Perino
Oh, Johnny. Every year, how do we get illegal.
- [38:45]
Charlie Hurt
Immigrants that are causing crime out of the country?
- [38:48]
Jessica Tarlov
What the.
- [38:49]
Charlie Hurt
Everybody's causing crime. So we should just allow all crime.
- [38:53]
Jessica Tarlov
Yes, of course.
- [38:55]
Jesse Waters
Oh, crimes of passion. I'm sure she was talking about tonight at 8 o' clock.
- [39:00]
Jessica Tarlov
Where is the murder?
- [39:00]
Dana Perino
Am I Desicca?
- [39:01]
Jesse Waters

Nice. Graduation day. Always special. But for Miguel Bermudez, it was unforgettable. Check out this video of Miguel graduating and getting his diploma and at the same time being offered a full time position to join the Newark High School as a teacher. He was one of 34 grads who were part of the Red Hawks Rising Teacher Academy program. All offer teaching jobs on the spot.
- [39:22]
Dana Perino
Wow.
- [39:23]
Jessica Tarlov
Congratulations, Miguel.
- [39:24]
Dana Perino
All right, Miguel. Thank you for being a teacher, Emily.
- [39:28]
Emily Compagno
All right, well, Operation Midnight Hammer wasn't the only hammering going on this weekend, Emily.
- [39:34]
Jesse Waters
This. You guys clean it up.
- [39:35]
Emily Compagno
Is a. Oh, my God.
- [39:38]
Dana Perino
Oh, my God.
- [39:39]
Emily Compagno
This guy is a festival in Portugal. They celebrate the eve of the feast of St. John the Baptist. And what they. They literally bonk each other with with hammers. And they say that the beauty lies in having the freedom to hit strangers and friends without starting a real fight.
- [39:55]
Jessica Tarlov
Hilarious.
- [39:56]
Emily Compagno
I mean, right? Can you imagine what happened in New York City if somebody. If someone hit you in the head with a toy hammer? You would obviously. Pepper spray.
- [40:04]
Charlie Hurt
Do you have anything to add to that?
- [40:05]
Jesse Waters
I think we're good.
- [40:07]
Dana Perino
I think Jesse's done. What do you have?
- [40:08]
Charlie Hurt
Okay. An Italian inventor has just unveiled what he's calling the world's thinnest car. Just 19 inches wide, that's narrower than a motorcycle and skinnier than your average pillow. It makes a Prius look like a tank. It's fully electric, fits up to one adult up front and maybe a child in the back. And how skinny is it? The thing is practically. Practically looks two dimensional. I don't think this is going to take off in America.
- [40:33]
Emily Compagno
19 inches is a lot.
- [40:34]
Charlie Hurt
Yeah.
- [40:34]
Emily Compagno
19 inches for a car.
- [40:36]
Jesse Waters
Yes, it is.
- [40:37]
Dana Perino
Yeah. Emily, you are really. Yeah.
- [40:40]
Emily Compagno
Supporting.
- [40:41]
Jesse Waters
Imagine if you bonk that car. That thing just tips right over.
- [40:44]
Emily Compagno
Emily, how much did you guys have to be paid to go to that festival in Portugal and get bonked with hammers?
- [40:49]
Dana Perino
I wouldn't want to do it. I would take a big payment. I really would. That's it. All right. That is it for us. Have a great night, everyone. I'll see you in the morning with Bill.
