>> Kayleigh:BEFORE AN ABOUT-FACE
FBI AS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS OF THE
JEWISH COMMUNITY WAS IN FACT
TARGETED IN THE TEXAS SYNAGOGUE
STANDOFF OVER THE WEEKEND, BUT
THE EUROS INITIAL REACTION
IS LEADING SOME TO QUESTION ITS
ENTIRE MISSION.
AS ONE CONSERVATIVE RADIO HOST
WONDERS IF THE FBI IS NOT SOLELY
FOCUSED ON DESTROYING THE
DOMESTIC ENEMIES OF THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
I’M EMILY COMPAGNO AND THIS IS A
"OUTNUMBERED"."
I’M JOINED BY MY COHOSTS
KAYLEIGH McENANY AND HARRIS
FAULKNER, FORMER
STATE DEPARTMENT SPOKESWOMAN
MORGAN ORTAGUS AND IN THE CENTER
SEAT, ENTREPRENEUR AND AUTHOR OF
"WOKE INC.," THE VIC RAMASWAMY.
NOW A GUNMAN BURST AND DURING
SHABBAT SERVICES AND TOOK A
RABBI AND OTHER PARISHIONERS
HOSTAGE ALL WHILE DEMANDING THE
RELEASE OF A CONVICTED TERRORIST
WITH A HISTORY OF ANTI-SEMITISM.
ALL THE HOSTAGES MADE IT OUT
UNHARMED.
HERE’S HOW THE FBI DESCRIBED IN
INCIDENT.
>> WE BELIEVE THAT HE WAS SINGLE
HE FOCUSED ON ONE ISSUE AND IT
WAS NOT SPECIFICALLY RELATED TO
THE JEWISH COMMUNITY BUT WE WILL
CONTINUE TO WORK AND FIND MOTIVE
MOTIVE.
>> Emily: AT THE FBI WAS ON
ROUNDLY CRITICIZED FOR
DOWNPLAYING ANTI-SEMITISM IS THE
MOTIVE.
THEN HOURS LATER IT REVERSED
COURSE SAYING THIS IS A
TERRORISM RELATED MATTER IN
WHICH THE JEWISH COMMUNITY WAS
TARGETED AND IT’S BEING
INVESTIGATED BY THE JOINT
TERRORISM TASK FORCE.
BUT THE PRESIDENT STILL ONLY
HIGHLIGHTED THE TERROR ANGLE OF
THE ATTACK.
>> President Biden: THIS IS AN
ACT OF TERROR.
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S FOCUSED
ON MAKING SURE THAT WE DEAL WITH
THESE KINDS OF ACTS AND, THANK
GOD WE HAVE SUCH PROFESSIONAL
FBI.
>> Emily: MORGAN, AS THE
JERUSALEM POST POINTED OUT, THE
IDEA THAT ANY ATTACK ON A IS
SYNAGOGUE IS NOT SPECIFICALLY
RELATED TO THE JEWISH COMMUNITY
IS PATENTLY ABSURD AND THEY
ASKED, WHAT MORE HAS TO HAPPEN,
WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR THAT TO BE
VIEWED AS SPECIFICALLY RELATED
TO THE JEWISH COMMUNITY?
>> Morgan: THE STATEMENTS THAT
FIRST CAME OUT AFTER WE ALL
LEARNED ABOUT THE HOSTAGE
SITUATION, AND THANK GOD THAT IT
WAS CLEARED UP AND THE PEOPLE ON
THE GROUND DID THEIR JOB.
BUT THE STATEMENTS ARE JUST
INCREDIBLY TONE-DEAF ESPECIALLY
AT A TIME WHEN WE HAVE RISING
ANTI-SEMITISM AROUND OF THE
WORLD, BUT IN OUR OWN COUNTRY AS
WELL.
IN FACT, I THINK MANY PEOPLE
KNOW THAT MY FAMILY AND I ARE
JEWISH AND WHEN WE GO TO TEMPLE
ON SATURDAYS HERE IN NASHVILLE
THERE’S ALWAYS THESE AMAZING
COPS STANDING AT THE FRONT AND I
THINK THEM.
I’M NOT RELIEVED TO HAVE THEM.
PLENTY OF CHURCHES AROUND THE
COUNTRY NEED TO HAVE PRODUCTION
AS WELL SADLY BECAUSE OF ATTACKS
AND I THINK IT’S JUST A
DEVASTATING PLACE WHERE WE ARE
IN OUR COUNTRY WHERE WE HAVE TO
HAVE POLICE AT OUR CENTERS OF
WORSHIP IN ORDER TO PROTECT US.
BUT WHAT’S MORE IMPORTANT IS THE
ADMINISTRATION NOT LOOK FOR
POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IN THIS
SITUATION. THERE WAS A TERRORIST WHO CAME
THERE WAS A TERRORIST WHO CAME
OVER AND TARGETED THE SYNAGOGUE.
THE ADMINISTRATION WAS WORRIED
ABOUT.
WHAT THEY WERE TRYING TO COVER
FOR BUT WITH THIS DAY AND AGE
WITH THE RISING RUN THE COUNTRY,
WE NEED TO CALL TERRORISM FOR
EXACTLY WHAT IT IS AND THEN DEAL
WITH THE SITUATION.
>> Emily: KAYLEIGH, TWO
MORGANS POINT, WE MAY NOT
UNDERSTAND WITH THE MOTIVE OR
INTENT BEHIND THE
ADMINISTRATION’S REFUSAL TO
LABEL THIS WHAT IT WAS BUT WE
KNOW EXACTLY WHAT’S BEEN TAKING
THEIR ATTENTION.
CRITICS ARGUE THAT THE ENTIRE
ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN FOCUSED
SOLELY ON LABELING TRUMP
SUPPORTER’S, DOMESTIC ENEMIES
AND WHITE SUPREMACIST WHEN THEY
SHOULD BE FOCUSING ON ACTUAL
EXTREMIST TERRORISTS, LIKE THIS
ONE, KAYLEIGH.
>> Kayleigh: THAT’S EXACTLY
RIGHT.
WHAT AN INCREDIBLE STATEMENT
FROM THE FBI TO SAY, "THIS IS
NOT SPECIFICALLY RELATED TO THE
JEWISH COMMUNITY."
THAT’S A DECLARATIVE STATEMENT
AND THE IMMEDIATE AFTERMATH TO
MAKE THAT KIND OF DECLARATIVE
STATEMENT IS REALLY SHOCKING.
ALSO FROM THE WHITE HOUSE AT
6:00 P.M., WE GET A STATEMENT
FROM THE WHITE HOUSE REFERRING
TO THE HOSTAGE SITUATION WITH NO
MENTION OF A SYNAGOGUE, NO
MENTION OF A RABBI BEING HELD
UP.
I UNDERSTAND AND APPRECIATE
BEING CAREFUL AS FACTS ARE
UNFOLDING IN THE SITUATION.
THAT’S TOTALLY FAIR.
BUT AT 6:00 P.M. WHEN APPARENTLY
THIS WHOLE STANDOFF BEGAN AT
AROUND 10:40 A.M., THIS IS
NEARLY SEVEN HOURS LATER AND
THERE’S NO THOUGHT OF PUTTING IN
THEIR THE WORD IS SYNAGOGUE OR
RABBI OR ANY DETAIL, IT’S REALLY
PRETTY SHOPPING AND I THINK KIND
OF DOVETAILS AND WITH THAT FBI
STATEMENT.
WHEN YOU CONTRAST THAT TO YOUR
POINT EXACTLY, MIRANDA DEVINE
DID A GREAT COLUMN AT
"THE NEW YORK POST."
WHEN YOU CONTRAST HOW QUICK
DEMOCRATS ARE TO LABEL THEIR
POLITICAL OPPONENTS AND DOMESTIC
ENEMIES, NANCY PELOSI AND AUGUST
OF 2020 CALLED G.O.P. LAWMAKERS
AND A TRUMP "ENEMIES OF THE
STATE.
KYLE RITTENHOUSE WAS PUT IN
THERE AND THEY WERE TALKING
ABOUT WHITE SUPREMACY BEFORE THE
TRIAL EVEN BEGAN.
AND THEN JUST THIS WEEK
PRESIDENT BIDEN REFERRING TO
THOSE WHO OPPOSE FEDERAL RISING
ELECTIONS, THE FEDERAL TAKEOVER
ELECTIONS, SEGREGATION.
THINK HOW QUICK THEY ARE TO THIS
TERMINOLOGY WITH THEIR POLITICAL
OPPONENTS AND HOW IT TOOK MANY
HOURS TO HAVE ANY SORT OF STRONG
WORDS ABOUT TERRORISM FROM THE
WHITE HOUSE.
>> Emily: RIGHT.
VIVEK, THE CRITICISM AS WE FBI
LEADERSHIP ON THE ENEMIES OF
DEMOCRATIC PARTY RATHER THAN THE
LEADERSHIP OF THE UNITED STATES.
>> Vivek: THE FBI HAS DECIDED
WHITE NATIONALISM IS THE THAT
THEY NEED TO FOCUS ON BUT THE
FACTS DON’T FIT THE NARRATIVE.
AND WHILE KEISHA NEAR CHRISTMAS
THERE WAS A BLACK MAN WHO POSTED
A LOT OF ANTIWHITE RACIALLY HATE
HATE CONTENT THAT IS AN SUV TO
KILL SIX PEOPLE AND INJURED MANY
IN A CHRISTMAS PARADE.
YOU DON’T HEAR ABOUT THAT
ANYMORE.
TALKING ABOUT THE CAPITAL, TO MY
KNOWLEDGE THE ONLY U.S. CAPITOL
POLICE OFFICER THAT WAS KILLED
BY AN ACT OF TERRORISM AT THE
CAPITAL WAS KILLED NOT ON
JANUARY 6 AT THE CAPITAL BUT WAS
KILLED IN APRIL OF LAST YEAR BY
NOAH GREEN, A COMMITTED FOLLOWER
OF THE NATION OF ISLAM AND YOU
DON’T HEAR THAT ANYMORE.
I THINK ALL OF THIS IS JUST A
SYMPTOM OF A DEEPER CANCER.
I DON’T EVEN FOCUS FOR MOST ON
THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION, I
FOCUS ON THE ADMINISTRATION OF
THE FBI.
THIS IS AN ORGANIZATION THAT HAS
PERSISTED AFTER EIGHT CANCEROUS
ROT.
AND KEEP IN MIND PRESIDENT TRUMP
WAS IT WAS NOT ABLE TO ATTAIN
DISORGANIZATION, EITHER.
THEY DIDN’T VET MANY OF HIS --
I’M NOT IN SUPPORT OF DEFUNDING
THE LOCAL PLACE BUT I COULD GET
BEHIND DEFENDING THE FBI.
I THINK THIS IS AN ORGANIZATION
THAT EPITOMIZES WITH THE
DEEP STATE IS ALL ABOUT AND THEY
DECIDE WHAT POLITICAL AGENDA
THEY WILL OPPRESS.
IT’S ACTUALLY THREATENING AND
UNDERMINING THE SECURITY OF OUR
COUNTRY AND THE TRUST AND THE
PEOPLE WHO WERE CHARGED WITH THE
SECURITY OF OUR COUNTRY RATHER
THAN ACTUALLY PROTECTING IT,
WHICH IS WHAT THEY ARE THERE TO
DO.
THAT’S WHY I THINK IT’S SO
IMPORTANT TO CALL OUT AND I
THINK IT ACTUALLY NEEDS TO BE AT
THE TOP OF THE AGENDA FOR THE
PERSON WHO RUNS FOR PRESIDENT
NEXT FROM THE REPUBLICAN PARTY,
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SHOULD BE
CONCERNED ABOUT IT TOO.
BUT THIS IS A TOP ISSUE ABOUT
THE FBI.
>> Harris: LET ME JUMP IN ON
THAT ONE SECOND.
>> Emily: REALLY QUICKLY JUST
TO UNDERSCORE THE CHASM BETWEEN
RANK-AND-FILE AND FBI’S COME UP
WITH LEADERSHIP MAKING THESE
DECISIONS VERSUS THOSE WHO ARE
CARRYING OUT THEIR ORDERS AND
PUT IN YOUR LIVES ON THE LINE
AND PROTECTING WILL COME TO
MORGAN’S POINT, WORSHIPERS AND
AMERICANS THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE
COUNTRY.
>> Harris: VIVEK, ONE THING I
WOULD SAY AND ADD TO THAT LIST
WHERE THE FBI HAS BEEN INSERTED
BY THE DOJ AND MAYBE THE
WHITE HOUSE AND THAT NATIONAL
SCHOOL BOARD ASSOCIATION IS THE
MOVEMENT AGAINST DISSENTING
PARENTS AND THE CONVERSATIONS
THAT WE WILL HAVE THAT MIGHT BE
DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS OF
SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS.
I MEAN WHEN YOU MIX ALL OF THAT
UP TOGETHER, DO WE NEED TO TAKE
A LOOK AT HOW THE FBI PERFORMS
ITS DUTIES IN AMERICA, AND IT’S
A REAL ROLE?
I DON’T THINK THAT WHAT YOU ARE
SAYING IS ANYTHING MORE THAN AN
INVESTIGATION INTO THE FEDERAL
BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION AND HOW
IT ACTUALLY INVESTIGATES.
BUT IN TERMS OF WHAT YOU’RE
SAYING, THE RANK AND FILE VERSUS
THOSE AT A HIGHER AND MORE
FEDERAL LEVEL, WE ARE ALWAYS
CLOSEST TO THE PEOPLE ARE
CLOSEST TO US.
IN YOUR COMMUNITY YOU WILL ARE
GOING TO KNOW YOUR LOCAL COPS,
AND I SUGGEST IN THIS CRIME
ENVIRONMENT IN NEW YORK CITY, I
LOOK ACROSS THE RIVER IN JERSEY,
AND CRIME IS EVERYWHERE IN URBAN
AREAS.
CERTAINLY, WE HAVE MORE IN
NEWARK BUT GET TO KNOW YOUR COPS
BECAUSE THEY STAND WATCH.
THEY STAND ON THE WALL WHEN
OTHERS DON’T VOLUNTEER TO DO
THAT AND AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE
HATE IS HURLED AT THEM.
IT’S A DIFFERENT RELATIONSHIP
THAT WE HAVE WITH POLICE
OFFICERS AROUND US AND I WOULD
HOPE THAT PEOPLE WOULD HAVE THE
INTESTINAL FORTITUDE AND THE
SMARTS TO GO OUT AND IT DO THAT
NO MATTER WHAT THEIR POLITICS
ARE.
THIS WHOLE IDEA ABOUT WHERE THE
FBI LIVES IN OUR LIVES,
KAYLEIGH, YOU WERE PART OF THE
ADMINISTRATION THAT TOOK A LOOK
AT HOW THAT WORKED OUT, IS IT
WORTH LOOKING DEEPER?
OR IS THAT SO OFFENSIVE THAT
LIBERALS MAY NEVER DO IT?
>> Kayleigh: IT IS WORTH
LOOKING INTO, YOU THINK ABOUT
THE ATTACK ON FORT HOOD AND THE
WAY THE FBI CAME OUT AND CALLED
IT WORKPLACE VIOLENCE.
HERE IS REALLY QUESTION A
REACTION FROM THE FBI TO SOME OF
THESE TERRORIST ATTACKS THAT WE
SEE AND WHEN YOU COUPLE THAT
WITH THE WAY THE FORMER
CANDIDATE AND
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP WAS
TREATED ON THE RUSSIA ISSUE,
THERE’S A WHOLE HOST OF
QUESTIONS WHY THIS NARRATIVE WAS
PEDDLED FOR A VERY LONG TIME AND
THE PRESIDENT BEING BRIEFED ON
IT BEFORE HE TOOK OFFICE.
THEY CALLED IT AN OFFENSIVE
INTELLIGENCE BRIEF, I FORGET THE
EXACT TERM BUT THE WAY IT WAS
USED TO PLAY INTO THE NARRATIVE.
IT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT.
WE CONTINUE TO SEE THESE
RED FLAGS AND WE ASK QUESTIONS.
>> Emily: IT’S ACTUALLY
PERFECT THAT YOU BROUGHT THAT UP
BECAUSE THAT’S MY LAST QUESTION
I WAS RESERVING FOR YOU, VIVEK.
CONTRAST AND COMPARE THIS
CURRENT SITUATION WITH THE 2009
FORT HOOD TERROR ATTACKS THAT
WAS USED AND TWISTED AND CALLED
INTO A WORKPLACE VIOLENCE
ARGUMENT THAT REALLY ROCKED THIS
AND TURNED IT INTO A SCANDAL,
AND FRANKLY OBAMA HAS NEVER FORGIVEN THEE OF ADMINISTRATION
FORGIVEN THEE OF ADMINISTRATION
FOR TWISTING IT AS SUCH.
>> Vivek: THERE IS EVIDENCE OF
WHO IS PULLING THE STRINGS HERE
AND THAT’S MORE OF A HARD-LINE
POSITION ON THIS FOR ALL OF YOU,
AND WE SHUT DOWN THE FBI AND
REPLACE IT WITH SOMETHING ELSE
ALTOGETHER.
WHEN WE HAVE IN OUR ORGANIZATION
WHOSE ROOTS RUN THAT DEEP IT’S
NOT GOING TO BE CHANGED OR
INCREMENTAL REFORM.
I DO THINK WE NEED MORE
INCREMENTAL TRANSPARENCY, I’M NO
CONSPIRACY THEORIST BUT THINK
IT’S SHAMEFUL THAT WE STILL
DON’T HAVE CLEAR ANSWERS FROM
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND THE
FBI AS TO HOW MANY FBI AGENTS
WERE PRESENT AT THE CAPITOL ON
JANUARY 6TH.
THE PUBLIC NEEDS TO HAVE ITS
TRUST RESTORED AND THAT REQUIRES
TRANSPARENCY, BUT THAT MAY
REQUIRE EVEN MORE DRASTIC
MEASURES TAKEN BY THE RIGHT
PERSON IN THE WHITE HOUSE TO SAY
THAT I ACTUALLY SOMETIMES WHEN
AN INSTITUTION HAS OUTLIVED ITS
PURPOSE WE NEED TO CREATE A NEW
ONE TO TAKE ITS PLACE.
I THINK WE ARE AT THAT MOMENT TO
HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE
FBI TODAY, AND I THINK THAT WILL
TAKE ITS PLACE.
AND THE IDEA IS THAT COMMUNITY
ACTIVIST IN THEIR AND
SOCIAL WORKERS, NOT THAT THERE’S NOT ROOM FOR SOME EXTRA VOICES
NOT ROOM FOR SOME EXTRA VOICES
BUT, THAT’S WHAT WE NEED TO DO.
AND ARE WE READY TO TAKE THOSE
STEPS?
YOU ASK A LOT OF GREAT
QUESTIONS.
>> Vivek: LET’S HAVE A
CONVERSATION.
THANK YOU, YEAH.
>> Emily: AND I THINK THE
QUESTIONS AMERICANS HAVE FOR
THAT FBI LEADERSHIP, THOSE OF
THE TOPICS THAT ECLIPSE THAT
AMAZING WORK.
IN THE REALM OF SEX TRAFFICKING
AND CHILD KIDNAPPING AND TRAFFIC
AGENTS LIKE EDDIE FRYER WHO HAVE
MADE HISTORY AND DONE SO MUCH
GOOD, GLOBALLY, TRULY, FROM
THEIR WORK WITH THE FBI.
BUT SITUATIONS LIKE THIS, IT
