Transcripts For FBC The Evening Edit 20240712

Moving federal forces into u. S. Cities not to help stop the killing of minorities, not to stop the rioting and the looting and the destruction, but as a preview, a warmup act for trump to use federal forces to, quote, try and steal the election are. Plus, voices for trump advisory e board member Ken Blackwell joins us tonight on that. Plus this story, former Trump Deputy National security adviser kt mcfarland, she is fired up and ready to go on newlydeclassified government documents that reveal the fbi did use a routine briefing as cover to secretly spy on President Trump his former National Security adviser, general Michael Flynn. So was this part of the insurance policy that fbi officials had texted about to block trump from winning . We debate it. Also coming up tonight, republican strategist Ford Oconnell on President Trump now slamming joe biden for letting the far left hijack the Democrat Party and its platform. That platform used to be about unity, about brotherhood. Well show you how critics warn that the democrats platform has become so divisive, so angry and so toxic that it is not the party it was just a decade ago. Yes, President Trump has been accused of being divisive, but this is off the hook. And the hill media reporter joe concha on a story we have been working on for three years, fbi officials admitting behind the scenes they had no case against trumprussia collusion or against Michael Flynn, but james comey leaked to the media to get the twoyear Mueller Probe launched that did not find any collusion, and there was no evidence against Michael Flynn. So we ask simply why . Since fbi officials and others admitted behind the scenes they didnt have evidence of anything . That story tonight. Im elizabeth macdonald. The evening edit starts right now. Elizabeth welcome to the show. Youre watching the fox business network. Lets get right to Edward Lawrence in washington with the latest headlines there. Edward . Reporter yeah, liz. Late this afternoon the president signing four executive orders designed to get drug price down. The first one would pass along the rebates that federal Community Health centers get for influence and [inaudible] allowing states to legally import canadian prescription drugs. The third, to preprevent middlemen from keeping rebates on medicine and forcing them to pass through the discount to consumers. Finally, medicare is directed to buy medicine at the same price as foreign countries. Now, he gave on that last one Drug Companies til august 25th to come up with a solution, they could possibly delay that one. No longer will the u. S. Support the rest of the world by paying more for prescription medicine. Listen. We pay 80 more than nations like germany, canada and others for some of the most expensive me is sins, identical in all reasons. This means that americans are funding the enormous cost of Drug Research and development for the entire planet. Reporter and now that the ink is on the paper, there is some background, regulatory things that have of to start. That process takes time. The white house also watching the surge in coronavirus cases and how thats going to affect schools reopening. Now, in the next cares package the president wants to put 105 billion for schools to reopen safely. If they dont reopen, he wants that money to go to parents to pay for private or Charter Schools that will be open. So the president has never wanted to take money away e from schools, take money away from education. It is about keeping it with the child. The purpose of School Funding is to educate a child. The child, if a school is closed, loses the opportunity to receive education and needed social services. Reporter and before we get there, dr. Deborah birx says 11 u. S. Cities need to take aggressive steps to get under control the coronavirus. Dr. Anthony fauci saying late today he does not think we need another shutdown, but some states that are in phase two of reopening, for example, may want to go back to phase one of reopening just to get a handle on the surge in cases. Again, thats a casebycase basis, he says. Liz . Elizabeth okay. Edward, thank you so much. Its great to see you. Okay, this story, federal officials now moving into seattle, preparing for a weekend of potential riots there. Portland, oregon, you should siege, now bracing under siege, now bracing for another night of riots after more than 2,000 showed up last night. Wide spread e destruction from two months of rioting. At least 60 now arrested, one man charged with hutting an officer with a sledgehammer,res charged with pointing lasers at Police Officers eyes in order to blind them. Some now with permanent vision damage. Okay, lets go through it. Joe biden and democrats now attack President Trump claiming hes trying to stop, quote, peaceful protests when rioters have hit officers with baseball bats, bricks, glass bottles, concrete, rocks, feces, pig feet, frozen water bottles, fireworks, slingshots filled with batteries, boards with nails driven into them and smoke bombs thrown into flames after rioters set fire to fillings and tried to buildings and tried to barricade officers inside. But heres the latest. Rioters are now going after officers and their families in their homes. Lets welcome retired i. C. E. Acting director. Its great to have you back on, sir. They put out on the internet the personal home addresses and phone numbers of 38 Police Officers in portland, also officers in kentucky, washington, d. C. , georgia, new york, massachusetts, and theyre telling extremists to go to these homes. That could put their families at risk. Whats your reaction . Yeah, this is terrible. This shouldnt happen in modernday america. The people who protect the cities, the srt people that are in portland for cbp, theyre patriots. They took an oath to protect this country, and you can see what happens when a modern Police Department like portland walks away from their responsibility to protect the citizens and that courthouse x. So cbp has been asked to go back in and help the federal protective service to line this thing out and protect that courthouse. Just imagine if they werent there, it would be in rubble right now x. Families of Law Enforcement officers already make enough sacrifice with the dangers that their spouses engage in at work, and now theyre make their lives difficult by putting information about their homes and their children on the internet. Just should not be. Elizabeth okay. Lets watch mark morgan. Hes the acting commissioner of customs and border protection. He was with us last night. Lets take a listen. Ive authorized them to remove their names because the same criminals who are trying to injure them, theyre actually trying to get people to go to their homes. Thats disgusting. While these agents are deployed portland, their families back home, theyre not with them, theyre actually being dossed and having encouraging people to go to their homes. Thats outrageous. We should all be united. That is wrong. Elizabeth okay. So the officers names are covered up for a reason. Because theyre getting exposed on the internet. Their families are put at risk. I mean, instead of complaining, hey, theres no identifying marks for them, theyre just showing badge numbers, but this is about protecting them, right . Yeah. They shouldnt have to face the risks with their families being targeted at home. So covering up their identity, letting each other know who it is but not letting the public see it in this time, it just proves the narrative this isnt a peaceful protest. These people want to destroy things, and theyre making a good effort. And if cbp wasnt there, itd be much worse than it is. Elizabeth you know, its unfortunate that politics has gotten into this, but the democrats are now being accused of silence over and a lack of outrage over that and the hundreds of rioters who targeted the home of chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot last night saying, you know, resign, cops should be defunded. The mayor of oakland, california, her home was targeted with vandalism and gras fit few, and now the doj Inspector General is launching an investigation into federal agents and the use of force in portland . Yeah. If these cities would take control of the crime problems that they have, if this demonstration was put down earlier, if the Portland Police engaged like they should in a modern city, we wouldnt have these kinds of problems. Its just that people believe they can get away with stuff like this. Theyre going to continue to do it. Elizabeth okay. Rioters who are arrested also in beverly hills, california, last night, rioters in seattle last night again. They broke windows, they looted, they damaged businesses. Your take on how that violence are came after a federal judge ruled that he will stop police from using tear gas to stop mob violence, it came just days after a dozen cops were injured in seattle with mortarstyle fire tossed at them at close range. Show the image, gang talking to my gang in the booth there was also a man who went on a spree, mayhem in portland. He had a hand saw and attacked women in a laundromat, and protesters reportedly intervene ised. Your take on that. Now is not the time to take capabilities or tools that the police have to protect themselves and to protect their communities. So defunding and removing the tools that they need to control a situation is a terrible idea, and the consequences are going to be long lasting in places when these cities are destroyed and businesses cant open because these rioters are taking control of the streets. Elizabeth you know, and critics say tone down the rhetoric. The words that are being used, critics say, are inflammatory and igniting and basically making things worse. The mayor of portland uses a security detail. Hes for defunding police. He went to the riots to thank the protesters, he was booed, rioters demanded he resigned. Now he claims federal forces are going to kill people. Lets watch him. Watch this. Ultimately what im worried about and what others in my community are worried about that nonviolent americans are going to be killed for doing nothing other than standing up for American Democratic principles. This is a serious issue. Elizabeth is that a serious threat, sir . All of the Law Enforcement that are serving there and around the country, theyre there to protect people. Its not dangerous to protect the courthouse. And you can see by the destruction and the reports that you had on earlier about officers being blinded by lasers, being hit by hammers and rocks, thats not a peaceful demonstration. Thats a riot. And he ought to know better, hes an elected official elizabeth but hes saying, hes saying federal forces are being sent in, theyre going to kill people. Your reaction to that. Thats not why theyre there. Theyre there to protect that building, and thats what their responsibility is. Fds is charged with doing that mission, and cbp is helping them. When i was commissioner, we deployed in san diego for similar circumstance. Someones got to protect that space because, obviously, the Police Department didnt do it. Just like in 2018 when they took over the i. C. E. Headquarters in downtown portland, the Police Department walked away from it x it was nine weeks later before they got that Building Back under or control after millions and millions worth of damage. This shouldnt happen in a modern american city. Elizabeth all right. Were showing the assault again in portland, oregon, of the man with the hand saw. Lets hope it does not come to that. Ronald, thank you so much the use of force there. Good to see you,er. Next up, Republican House minority leader Kevin Mccarthy.

Elizabeth Republican House minority leader Kevin Mccarthy now criticizing House Democrats. Hes saying stop taking marching orders from speaker pelosi. Dont block a bill that would sanction officials who covered up the coronavirus pandemic. Watch the House Minority leader here. Chinas deception has directly led e to americans e deaths. China covered up the truth about the virus. China hoarded personal protective equipment and tried to exfort other countries or extort other cups. Now chinas trying to hack our vaccines which will harm our ability to serve the world if solve this problem. Why does the speaker promote their propaganda by trying to blame the president of the United States for the Chinese Communist party lies . Even calling the virus in the name of our president. My final question would be, what does the Chinese Communist party have on the democrats . Why cant they hold them accountable . Elizabeth okay. All of that is going on as the head of the chinese consulate in houston now will not commit to closing the office today as the Trump Administration ordered. Its considered a front for china spying on the u. S. This as china is in a tit for tat, ordering the u. S. Consulate in southwestern china to shut down. Welcome back fox news military analyst, retired army colonel david hunt. Colonel, your take on congressman Kevin Mccarthy there. Yeah. Heres my issue with that and the china did all this. What do you want to do . Weve got the president and the secretary of state saying china did this, they created the virus, they clearly lied about it, but they created it and sent it. Therefore, if thats true, china [audio difficulty] millions of lives being affected and hundreds of thousands of lives dead. And i so what do you want to do about this . I know that china lied. I know that they misrepresented. Well, i dont think we have yet proven that this was chinesedevelopedded and weaponized. Because if thats true, thats an act of war. Elizabeth okay, i hear what youre saying. The house bill from republicans would punish the chinese officials who covered it up. I mean, thats what the secretary of state, mike pompeo is blaming china for that, for the coverup, the white house has been saying that, independent analysts have been saying that. I mean, 4 million in the u. S. Now infected, 144,000 now dead . Yes, more than 1. 2 million have recovered, but theres also this, colonel. Dr. Anthony fauci said things will return to normal in 2021. Because of vaccines, but chinas now accused of stealing that research. All everything, lets say everything, thats true. Few point is, what do you want my point is what do you want to do about this . Thats been the lack of political will. Its not democratic or government, u. S. Government. What is our response to what the chinese we know have done which is at least lie and many fear did not control their population. But i also think theres too many people saying that the chinese made this virus and weaponizedded it. Whatever were my point is what do we want to do, what is the u. S. Governments response, not political, but exactly what we should be doing against china for doing what we know theyve done. Elizabeth yeah. Theyre talking sanctions and more. Well, colonel, its great to have you back on. Come back soon. Were so sorry we ran out of time. Thanks for your service to our country. Good to see you.

Elizabeth President Trump told fox news sean hannity that, yes, he is considering pardoning individuals implicated in the trumprussia probe. That could potentially include general Michael Flynn is if a lower court judge continues with that case and Michael Flynn loses. As we have more on this story we brought you last night, a newly declassified memo written by an fbi agent in august 2015 is reveals more on what we have been reporting for several years, that the fbi did secretly plant an fbi agent at a routine briefing with donald trump and general flynn to secretly spy on them for both the trumprussia probe and the new probe into general Michael Flynn that james comey had just opened a day before. I know shes toured up, former Trump Deputy National security adviser, kt mcfarland, great to see you. When you heard this, what did you say . Was this fbis quote, insurance policy, that, you know, peter strzok had texted lisa page about to stop trump from winning . Was that part of the insurance policy there . I think it was part of it, but i think it was much bigger. Heres the thing. Liz, not only were they spying, but they kept notes. I mean, how dumb are these fbi agents, right . They go to a briefing, theyre there under a different purpose. I mean, a defensive briefing tells you things like, look, heres how people might try to recruit you to be spieds. Dont give spies. Dont give your dog walker a key to your apartment. There are all sorts of things they show you and teach you on how to protect yourself and classified information. So in the middle of these briefings, theyve got their own spy. So here they are supposedly telling the Trump Administration people heres how youve got to watch out for russian and chinese spies, and the whole time they were spying themselves, and then they were taking notes and putting notes in the file. These guys are caught, i mean, red handed. Elizabeth you know, kt, lets break it down. Lets put it in the context of what else was going on in march 2016, peter strzok and lisa page text that trump loathsome, that hillary should win. August 8th, lisa page texts, trumps not ever going to be president , right in and strzok says, no, hes not, well stop it. Then strzok texts lisa page about that insurance policy because they cannot take the risk that trump wins. Next day the fbi opens the probe into general flynn. And the day after that, the fbi uses this briefing to spy on trump and flynn. In the context of that, you can see whats going on, right, kt . Sure. And at the same time, liz, they were also leaking to their favorite newspaper reporters. You know, at that same period of time there were Anonymous Sources saying donald trump is an agent of the russians, general flynn was working with vladimir putin. Donald trump never would have won the election if it hadnt been for russian interference. They were spying on the trump people, not only during the campaign but, frankly, into the administration. They were leaking Anonymous Sources, and then the Intelligence Community would point to those articles in the press and say, see . Anonymous sources. We really better investigate further. It was a circular thing. They planted the stories, and then they used the stories to do the wiretapping and to do the sitting in on the meeting and the spying. Again, the thing i find extraordinary, liz, they took notes they either thought that they were so sure or that trump wouldnt win that theyd never be discovered or this is their own personal insurance policy so that if it was ever uncovered that they were spying, they were doing the wrong thing, theyd be able to blame the boss. Elizabeth i want to ask you about that because fbi agent joseph by yet ca did the briefing with general flynn. He wrote the memo about it. Peter strzok signed off on it, so did kevin klein smith. Andrew mccabe said they picked pientka because he was a top agent. He later interviews flynn along with peter strzok trying to corner flynn into lying to the fbi. Is it your sense that were seeing documents released and declassified now because the u. S. Attorney, junk during how many john durham, talking to them maybe in his criminal probe . Yeah. I mean, heres elizabeth you think thats going on . Since the mueller i think thats exactly whats going on. These are documents being declassified and released to the public. Theyre only sent out to the public once the Justice Department and durham are finished with them. I think theyve already are talked to pientka, i think theyre probably talking to strzok. But thats how they do these investigations. They start small and then youre supposed to plead guilty if or blame your boss, and it works it way up the food chain. Thats how they came after me. In our case, of course, in the Trump Administration nobody had done anything wrong x so it really was a lot of dead ends. In this case it looks like theyre uncovering an awful lot of stuff. I hope so. Elizabeth all right. Kt mcfarland, great to see you. Come back soon. Great to see you, liz. Liz okay. Coming up, republican strategist Ford Oconnell on President Trump shamming joe biden for letting the far left hijack the Democratic Party. It used to be about unity and brotherhood, but now it paints an angry, toxic, divisive picture of america thats not true, most of america does not see. That story next.

I shouldve purchased lighter weights elizabeth welcome back. President trump now slamming joe biden for letting the far left, Bernie Sanders and alexandria ocasiocortez, take over the democrat platform. Watch this. I think what joe biden and i dont think it was him, i think it was radical left people who are totally controlling him like a puppet but when we talk about bind, hes got a manifesto that he agreed to. I call it a manifesto with Bernie Sanders for open borders and things that you wouldnt even believe. Elizabeth okay. The democrat platform, were researching it. It has become more divisive, more toxic, more angry than ever before. Its about race wars, its about getting government bureaucrats to force everyone to, quote, pay their fair share. As biden promised to raise everyones taxes 4 trillion in new taxes to spend on expanding growing government. Not to cut down the deficit or debt thats already exploded. Lets welcome republican strategist Ford Oconnell. Will voters vote for this . Fox news poll says, yes, biden leads trump in michigan, minnesota and pennsylvania, but this is really tock you can e, poisonous stuff when we read it. What do you think . No, voters wont go for it particularly in the rust belt, my home tate of florida. State of florida. What bidens talking about not getting through to the rank and file voters. And there is nothing moderate in what joe bidens pushing. And President Trump is absolutely right, joe bidens an empty suit, and aoc and Bernie Sanders are controlling everything he says and does. He sells himself as a moderate, but thats not how he got the nomination, and thats not how hes going to run america if he is, indeed, electedded. Elizabeth ford, we want to show the viewer how far the democrat platform has come, how it exists now versus how it was in the past. Up until, you know, until 2008, 2012, going as far back as john f. Kennedy, democrats talked about unity, brotherhood, entrepreneurialism, they talked about capitalism, growth, tax cuts, smaller government. That was from jfk through al gosh you know, downsize the government al gore. Even through 2008. But since 2012, ford, the democrats have lost their ideological bearings. They became more of a paying fair share, it became about bigger government and now its about race and duh viciveness. America divisiveness. America going to say this is not who we are with. Democrats, youre talking to yourselves, youre in your own bubble. Yes, there are problems in the country, people get that, they understand that we want to fix it, but we live under one constitution, one bill of rights, one culture. Thats who we are as americans. What do you think, ford many. Ford in. I think youre absolutely right. This is not the Democratic Party of a decade ago. They want to kohl everything from your Wallet Control everything from your wallet to your guns to what you think. And when you step back and look at it at 30,000 feet, theyre worshiping government. They think that government can solve all the peoples problems. They dont care a fig about jobs and growth. They want us to become venezuela as quickly as possible, but the difference with venezuela, they dont want us to drill for oil and gas. So its absolutely amazing what the Democratic Party is pushing, and they may hide and say its moderate, but theyre pushing all fullblown socialism. Elizabeth you know, when you look at their math and how they do things, when you look at their analysis, its like they havent read u. S. History, they dont know about American History and how we came forward to where we are now as a country. And, you know, ive talked to democrats, they look at this platform and they dont understand how far the Democrat Party has fallen. I talk to Democrat Union workers, i talk to teachers, the cops, the firemen if, theyre saying they feel alienated, lost because they dont know what the democrats, they dont understand what the party has become. Ford, your final word on that . Well, look, theres a civil war going on in the Democratic Party between the more traditional moderates and the progressives, and the progressives are winning at every turn. Theres a real opportunity for donald trump to capture these votes in november, and theres a real opportunity for the Republican Party to capture them the decades going forward, and i hope they do their job and get the message down there. Elizabeth ford, great to see you. Come back soon is. Always great to be with you, e. Mac. Thank you. Elizabeth psalm here. Next up, to the new narrative. The democrats in the media are now pushing that the Trump Administration is moving federal forces into u. S. Cities not to just help stop the violence thats killing minorities, not to stop the root rioting and the looting thats destroying businesses, massive destruction there. Democrats in the media now say trump doing this, its all just a preview for trump to use federal forces to, quote, steal the election. Trump add Advisory Board member Ken Blackwell our guest on this next. The federal government has a sworn duty to uphold the laws of the United States through field offices and federal facilities across the country, these agents protect and serve the american people.

Is that if youre not wexpecting the shock,t and the markets fall dramatically, you might panic. And in the midst of that panic, you might sell and run to cash. At the very moment, you shouldnt. At the very moment, prices are at their low. Thats my fear. Im not worried about the country. Im not worried about the financial markets, because in the long run, i know theyll be fine. Im worried about you. Im worried about how you will personally respond to this crisis. And even if you dont panic, you may. Elizabeth welcome back. This new narrative now being pushed by the democrats that the Trump Administration is moving federal forces into u. S. Cities to not stop the killing of minorities or to stop the rioting and destruction. Democrats in the media say all of this is just a preview, a warmup act of President Trump using federal forces to, quote, steal the election, even claiming without proof that he will impose martial law in order to stay in power. Watch this. I think were looking at, potentially, a trial run for a kind of, a genuine attempt to, new intimidation and potentially through force to try to steal this election. If he loses x i expect that he will, we have to be prepared for things this nation has never faced before. And unfortunately, that could involve the use of, you know, these forces. This is a trial run for the president of the United States who may be organizing to not accept what happens when we have the election. This is, i guess, the president s own versions of martial law since the real military is kind of pushed back from doing that. Elizabeth okay. The criticism has been there the democrats in the media will be silent about the chaos in the cities. As has been pointed out, this is factual. This is happening in democratled cities. So the chaos is negative to the party. So is that new narrative a distraction . Is the push by nancy pelosi and others calling federal forces, quote, stormtroopers or push for fascism, is that so as not to distract from whats going on in democratrun cities in lets talk to Ken Blackwell. What do you think, ken . By the way, its great to welcome you to the show. What are you thoughts . Good to be with you. As a former mayor and a former undersecretary of the u. S. Department of housing and urban development, let me just tell you this. The democrats want to make this a referendum on the president , and so they advance false narratives and they hope that americans shut their eyes and close their ears, you know, to what the reality is. But this is going to come down to a basic choice between whether or not we want the rule of law and safe neighborhoods and streets or whether we want chaos and disruption. And that means choosing between cities that are fields of dreams versus cities that are killing fields. And as you just said in your remarks, theres tangible evidence that the body count is going up, and most of these urban cities that we see on tv, and what we also are realizing is that theres destruction and theres of property. And theres no way that youre going to get the Capital Infusion that you need to grow the city, create e jobs, put people to work and build livable cities. That is what is going to be at a stake in november, on november the 3rd, whether you choose an Opportunity Society or whether you want the expansion of a welfare state which is, all you have to do is look at their agenda, and you see thats what joe biden and the democrats are advancing. Elizabeth you know, youre making an important point there, and undercutting, you know, this narrative that were reporting on, what underconsistents that narrative undercuts that narrative is this would jimmy carter, bill clinton or even barack obama ignore two months of chaos, looting and destruction on the streets . Would they have allowed it . [laughter] let me just say, they want the make trump and the police the bogeyman. They want to advance a narrative that america is irreparably racist and, therefore, in need of fundamental transformation. It is not. All you have to do take a hard look at the facts, and what you see is that these cities that are under democrat leadership are turning into killing fields where the residents of these cities are watching their kids and adults slaughtered right in front of them. And if property destroyed. Can you and i both know, liz, theres an old saying, the capitol is a coward. And, therefore, if you really want an in capital. If you want to rebuild these cities and to create jobs, you have to have a respect for the rule of law and public safety. If you dont, we know that capital seeks the path of least resistance, greatest opportunity, not the path of lawlessness and violence. Elizabeth well, youre certainly right there, Ken Blackwell. Youve been terrific tonight. Thank you so much for your insight. Its great to have you on. Good to be with you. Elizabeth its good to be with you. Just ahead, staying on a story e weve been working for a number of years now, former top fbi officials admitting behind the scenes they did not have evidence of trumprussia crimes or Crimes Involving Michael Flynn. But when trump asked james comey to go easy on flynn, thats when comey leaked to the media to get the twoyear Mueller Probe launched. We asked simply why. The hill media reporter joe concha sounds off on this one. President obama and biden spied on my campaign. Its never happened in history. If it were the orr way around, the people other way around, people would be in jail for 50 year right now. That would be comey, that would be brennan, that would be all of this. Hey, can i.

Elizabeth welcome back. Government officials including former fbi director james comey and James Clapper admitting behind the scenes they didnt have evidence to of trumprussia conspiracy. Peter strzok was fired for antitrump bias, he also said in early 2017 a New York Times story was wrong claiming intelligence connections to the trump campaign. So heres what happened. When the Trump White House asked the fbi to disclose publicly what they were admitting to privately, that there was no case against Michael Flynn, no derogatory information against flynn, they were going to drop the flynn case. Trump said, quote go easy on flynn to james comey. After the fbi even said behind the scenes they had no case. Thats what happened. Director james comey instead arranged all of that to be leaked to the media to get mueller appointed special counsel. Lets welcome the hill media reporter, joe concha. Your thoughts. My thoughts is that, well, james comey has9 another book coming out in january 2021. It was Just Announced this week. He did a media tour first book two years ark made millions of dollars off of it. In other words, there is no accountability for james comey. And remember, lets be clear about this. Many news organizations were pitched that dossier way back when in 2016, and almost all rejected it except for buzzfeed who published the whole thing without any disclaimers. Cnn followed suit, then from there it gets into the public doe main, we have nice a warrants, and then james comey admits may of 2017, Senate Intelligence committee, as you said, that he purposely leaked to the media through the New York Times in order to induce a special counsel to investigate russia collusion. He says this in open testimony x nothing happens to james comey. So here we are now, right . The trumprussia collusion, that whole in terms of narrative when you listen to, say, i dont know, robert mueller, thats been 6 feet under for a while now. Yet we is have a New York Times story trying to unearth it again in order to somehow still connect donald trump to the russians all these years later, and the american people, quite frankly, the eyes are glazing over at this point, elizabeth. Elizabeth yeah. But people won pulitzers for a pulitzers for a story that wasnt true. I mean, the Mueller Probe found ten instances of obstruction that the trump team accepted russia help but, you know, no trumprussia collusion. And the back story is this the Hillary Clinton Campaign Paid for the steele dossier, the Opposition Research. The fbi then tack took that in this september 2016 to do the trumprussia probe. They used democratfunded Opposition Research that was approved by steele proved by steeles own sources to be dubious and discredited. Your reaction. Its amazing. Peter strzok, meanwhile, since its the weekend, we can bring this up, elizabeth, the fact that he is probably the least romantic e person ive ever seen. You see all these texts with lisa page, you know, can her about a netflix, you know, series once in a while or, boy, i really like that dress you wore last night. Thats kind of interesting. So even peter strzok is saying this thing is all b. S. , and the bottom line is that the media played a big role in the fact that we even had a russia investigation in the first place. As i said, by buzzfeed, by cnn getting it out there, and then what did we waste . Three years on this of a Trump Presidency on something that dud not exist. And now were even hearing, as you mentioned in the last block as far as the president s now going to steal the election again and the russians are going to help them . I mean, how many times are they going to repeat this lie until people start pushing back . Unfortunately, when the media keeps pushing it, enough people out there are going to believe it if you say a lie often enough. Elizabeth yeah, thats it. Thats it. To wheres the media pushing back saying wheres the proof of what youre saying, right . You would think that would be the case, right . But look, were no longer in the era of bias at this point, elizabeth, it is agendadriven, right . Its activism. It is, okay, were going to push joe biden over the finish line, were going to make sure donald trump does not get elected. And, you know, a couple of years ago they would always say, you know what . Were objective. Were just asking tough questions and holding, you know, accountable people of power. Now its open, its blatant, and its done from a perspective of Donald Trumps a bad person, and we as the media are to make sure that he is gone because we are with on a morally higher plain, and thats just not journalism anymore, thats activism, elizabeth. Elizabeth all right. Joe concha, come back soon. We love your insights and perspective. Thank you for joining us. Im mac donald, youve been watching the evening edit on fox business. Fantasticu have a great weekend weekend out there. That does it for us. Lou dobbs lou good evening, everybody.
