Colonial Pipeline paid nearly $5 million to Russian hackers, but "Fox News Primetime" host Brian Kilmeade said now the American people are being forced to take the blow. BRIAN KILMEADE: According to Bloomberg, Colonial paid the Russian hackers on Friday hours after the ransomware attack began but the decryption tool was so slow, the company had to use its own back-ups to unlock the pipeline itself. Among the people outraged, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi – she's not happy about the payoff... And she’s right. Colonial may be able to afford to give the hackers $5 million, but it’s you -- our viewers in 17 different states that are really paying the price. You're the ones paying twice as much for gas today as you were last week.
