>> BRIAN: A FOX NEWS ALERT
YOU'RE LOOKING AT LIVE VIDEO
FROM IRAN STATE TV SHOWING MOURN
ERS, AND IRAN AS THE
FUNERAL PROCESSION FOR QASSEM
SOLEIMANI IS HAPPENING
RIGHT NOW AND PRESIDENT TRUMP
ISSUING A WARNING TO IRAQ BY THE
WAY AND IRAN FOLLOWING THREATS
BY THOSE TWO COUNTRY AGAINST OUR
COUNTRY.
>> STEVE: THE PRESIDENT TOLD
REPORTERS ON AIR FORCE ONE ABOUT
IRAN.
"THEY'RE ALLOWED TO KILL OUR
PEOPLE AND TORTURE OUR PEOPLE
AND ALLOWED TO USE ROADSIDE
BOMBS AND BLOW UP OUR PEOPLE AND
WE'RE NOT ALLOWED TO TOUCH THEIR
CULTURAL SITE.
IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY."
AINSLEY: IRAQ'S PARLIAMENT
VOTING TO REMOVE U.S. TROOPS
FROM THE COUNTRY.
THEY SAY THAT THEY WILL FACE
SANCTIONS AND THE PRESIDENT SAYS
GO FACE SANCTIONS IF THAT DOES
HAPPEN SO LET'S BRING IN
KELLYANNE CONWAY COUNSELOR TO
THE PRESIDENT, GOOD MORNING TO
YOU, KELLYANNE.
>> CORNING.
AINSLEY: SO WHAT IS YOUR
REACTION TO THAT OR WHAT'S THE
PRESIDENT'S REACTION?
>> WELL THE PRESIDENT KNOWS HE
WAS ON SOLID GROUND,
CONSTITUTIONALLY, LEGALLY
STRATEGICALLY, TO HAVE TAKEN OUT
ONE OF THE WORLD'S BEST-KNOWN
MOST BLOOD-THIRSTY AND BRUTAL
TERRORIST AND THE WORLD IS SAFER
BECAUSE SOLEIMANI IS NOW DEAD.
THIS PRESIDENT WAITED THREE
YEARS.
WE'VE HAD SOLEIMANI IN OUR SIGHT
S FOR JUST AS LONG AS WE'VE
BEEN HERE, OBVIOUSLY PREVIOUS
ADMINISTRATIONS DID AS WELL, BUT
I'D LIKE TO QUOTE NONE OTHER
THAN FORMER DHS SECRETARY UNDER
PRESIDENT OBAMA, JEH JOHNSON WHO
YESTERDAY SAID THE PRESIDENT AS
COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF HAS AMPLE
DOMESTIC LEGAL AUTHORITY TO HAVE
TAKEN THIS LAWFUL MILITARY
OBJECTIVE TO EXECUTE ON THE
LAWFUL MILITARY OBJECTIVE AND
YOU'VE GOT FORMER HEAD OF
COMMAND AND FORMER CIA DIRECTOR
YESTERDAY, SAYING THAT YOU
CANNOT OVERSTATE THE
SIGNIFICANCE, OF TAKING OUT
SOLEIMANI AND THAT WHEN HE WAS
OVER THERE, WITH OUR TROOP, WE
DIDN'T SEE MUCH OF SOLEIMANI.
HE'S BEEN MORE BRAZEN AND BEEN
MORE VISIBLE AND HE GOT CAUGHT
IN THE ACT.
HE GOT CAUGHT IN THE ACT.
WE'VE GOT AMERICANS, LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN, WE'VE GOT AMERICANS
WHO HAVE BURIED THEIR SONS AND
DAUGHTERS, BECAUSE SOLEIMANI HAS
EXECUTED.
WE HAVE THOUSANDS OF OTHER
AMERICANS MAIMED AND INJURED
SOME DEVASTATINGLY FOR PERMANENT
INJURIES BECAUSE OF SOLEIMANI SO
I'M A LITTLE SICK ALREADY OF
HERO WORSHIP IT SEEMS OF
SOLEIMANI FOR SOME PEOPLE THAT
JUST CAN'T GET OVER THE FACT
THIS WAS AN IMPORTANT CALL BY
OUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF.
>> STEVE: KELLYANNE WHAT DO
YOU MAKE OF THE FACT THAT WITHIN
THE LAST 90 MINUTES OR SO
SENATOR SCHUMER AND MENENDEZ
HAVE SENT OVER TO THE WHITE
HOUSE A LETTER TELLING THE
PRESIDENT TO DECLASSIFY THE WAR
POWERS AUTHORIZATION LETTER THAT
HE SENT TO CONGRESS, AND THEY
SAY THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO
KNOW WHAT THE JUSTIFICATION WAS
FOR PULLING THE TRIGGER ON THAT
GUY.
>> THAT'S A PARTISAN ACTION BY
SCHUMER AND MENENDEZ AND THEY
KNOW BETTER.
THEY'VE BEEN IN THE SENATE FOR A
LONG TIME, FAR TOO LONG FRANKLY
FOR EACH OF THEM.
THEY KNOW THAT BEGINNING THIS
WEEK THERE WILL BE CONGRESSIONAL
BRIEFINGS, AND THEY'RE NOT
RESTRICTED.
I'M INFORMED, TO PEOPLE WHO ARE
JUST IN THE INTELLIGENCE
COMMITTEE, MEMBERS OF CONGRESS
CAN HAVE ACCESS TO THE
INFORMATION.
THEY KNOW THAT THE PENTAGON WILL
BE BRIEFING CONGRESS PRIVATELY
IN THE DUE COURSE SO THAT'S JUST
A PARTISAN MOVE AS WAS THEIR
IMPEACHMENT.
YOU KNOW WHAT'S BIPARTISAN?
BIPARTISAN IS THE CREDIT THAT
THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF IS
GETTING FOR TAKING THIS ACTION
AGAINST BLOOD-THIRSTY MURDERER
SOLEIMANI.
BIPARTISAN IS THE OPPOSITION TO
THE IMPEACHMENT AND I JUST CAN'T
BELIEVE THAT EVEN NOW, WHEN I'M
OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER THAT
FOREIGN POLICY IS SUPPOSED TO
STOP AT THE PARTISANSHIP,
FOREIGN POLICY IS SUPPOSED TO BE
DEVOID OF POLITICS BUT THIS IS A
TOWN NOW THAT IS SO INCREDIBLY
PARTISAN WHEN IT COMES TO
PRESIDENT TRUMP, THEY ARE
NEGATIVE, AND CRITICAL, EVEN
WHEN HE'S TAKING OUT A TERRORIST
, WHO IS CAUGHT IN THE
ACT TO CONTINUE TO MURDER MORE
AMERICANS AND THIS PRESIDENT PUT
A STOP TO THAT.
>> BRIAN: I WANT YOU TO HEAR
WHAT THE DEMOCRATS SAID OVER THE
WEEKEND ESPECIALLY AS NEWS CAME
OUT ABOUT THE STRIKE ON FRIDAY.
>> HIS ACTIONS NOW PUT US ON
THE PATH TO ANOTHER WAR.
HE'S BEEN ERRATIC AND
UNSUCCESSFUL IN ALMOST EVERY
PREVIOUS FOREIGN POLICY ENDEAVOR
THIS ONE IS THE MOST DANGEROUS
OF ALL.
WE ARE NOT SAFER TODAY THAN WE
WERE BEFORE DONALD TRUMP ACTED.
>> WE SEEM TO HAVE ACCOMPLISHED
WHAT SOLEIMANI WAS TRYING TO DO
BUT COULDN'T SO IN DEATH HE'S
ACTUALLY ACCOMPLISHED HIS GOAL.
>> IT'S NOT A GOOD IDEA UNLESS
YOU'RE READY FOR WHAT COMES NEXT
>> THIS IS AND WAS AN ENORMOUS
ESCALATION.
>> BRIAN: SO THAT'S WHAT THEY
THINK.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT
THEY THINK?
>> WELL WHO CAN BLAME THEM BUT
I'M NOT GOING TO BE LECTURED BY
PEOPLE WHO VOTED AFFIRMATIVELY
TO FORK OVER $130 BILLION IN
CASH TO IRAN WHICH HELPS TO FUND
THE FORCE.
I DON'T THINK IT WENT TO
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND WOMEN'S
FREEDOM AND LIBERATION IN IRAN
DO YOU?
AND SO I'M NOT LECTURED BY THEM
AND CERTAINLY BY PEOPLE WHO ARE
WEAK ON FOREIGN POLICY LIKE
BERNIE SANDERS AND ELIZABETH
WARREN.
I MEAN SHE WAS RIDICULOUS
YESTERDAY IN TERMS OF THE
PROJECTING WEAKNESS, SHE JUST
WANTS THIS COUNTRY TO BE WEAK
WHEN IT COMES TO FOREIGN POLICY.
>> BRIAN: SHE SAYS THE
PRESIDENT WANTED TO TAKE
IMPEACHMENT OFF THE TABLE.
>> IT GIVES NO CREDIBILITY.
IF YOU'RE ELIZABETH WARREN AND
SINKING IN THE POLLS AND
FUNDRAISING AND SOMEBODY WAS THE
MAYOR OF A SMALL MIDWESTERN TOWN
AND YOU'RE LOSING TO BERNIE
SANDERS, YOUR CO-SOCIALISTIC, TO
A VICE PRESIDENT WHO SHOULD BE
FORCED TO EAT THE CHAOS AND THE
IRANIAN POLICY, THAT WE
INHERITED AND IS OUT THERE
LECTURING HOW IT ESCALATED I'M
WITH FORMER CIA DIRECTOR AND
DEFENSE SECRETARY BOB GATES, HE
SAYS VICE PRESIDENT BIDEN HAS
BEEN ON THE WRONG SIDE OF MAJOR
FOREIGN POLICY DECISIONS FOR
DECADES AND HE'S CERTAINLY ON
THE WRONG SIDE OF THE IRANIAN
ONES AND SECRETARY POMPEO IS
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT.
WE'RE CLEANING UP THE MESS WE
INHERITED BUT PART OF THAT IS
ALLOWING PEOPLE LIKE SOLEIMANI
TO REIGN FREE, AND TO EXECUTE
HIS REIGN ON TERROR, NOT JUST ON
AMERICANS BUT ON OTHERS AND
THAT'S WHY THIS PRESIDENT HAS
SPOKEN WITH BORIS JOHNSON, WITH
EMMANUEL MACRON MORE RECENTLY,
SECRETARY POMPEO ANNOUNCED HE
WOULD LIKE MORE HELP FROM OUR
ALLIES IN EUROPE BUT THIS IS
HELPFUL TO THE ENTIRE WORLD AND
I'M DISAPPOINTED BUT NOT
SURPRISED THE DEMOCRATS WHO SEE
IN THIS MOMENT OF SOLEIMANI'S
DEATH SOME KIND OF PARTISAN
POLITICAL OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM,
BUT I THINK IT DOESN'T PLAY WELL
WITH AMERICANS AND THEY SEE THAT
SOLEIMANI ARE NOW WHERE THEY
BELONG AND THEY CAN NO LONGER
KILL AMERICANS AND OTHER PEOPLE
AROUND THE WORLD.
>> BRIAN: THEY CALL THEM WEAK
AFTER THE EMBASSY RAID, AND NOW
THEY ARE CALLING HIM WRECKLESS
AFTER THE SOLEIMANI STRIKE.
IT'S LIKE YOU CAN'T WIN.
>> AND PROTOTYPE PRESIDENT
DOESN'T HAVE A STRATEGY.
NUMBER ONE, YOU'LL FORK OVER
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF CASH.
THAT WAS A POSITION OF WEAKNESS
AND APPEASEMENT AND THAT IS A
DISGRACE AND WE'RE CLEANING UP
FOR THAT THAT'S THE OBAMA/BIDEN
POLICY.
NUMBER TWO IS WE'VE GOT
SANCTIONS ON IRAN, AND ALSO THE
OTHER STRATEGY IS YOU TAKE OUT
