Abuse of power. President obama announced one of the largest extra constitutional power grabs ever by a chief executive. He declared unilaterally that almost five million undocumented aliens will receive deferred action under some newfangled definition of prosecutorial discretion madam speaker, not only that, not only escaping consequences, he has decided to bestow benefits such as Work Authorization and immigration benefits this madam speaker, despite the fact that the very same president over 20 different times, said he lacked the power to do what he just did and he repeatedly said hes not a king. Now madam speaker, his position may have changed, after the election, i hasten to add, but the constitution has not. Lou the white house reaction . Predictable, an administration that has steadfastly relied on denial, deception and distortion responded with an illogical non sequitur. Press secretary josh earnest offered this bald faced answer saying in fact you heard me right you read it right.

President hollande announced france will be sending an Aircraft Carrier to the middle east to join the fight against the Islamic State. And france is cracking down on the glorification of terrorism and hate speech arresting 54 people since last weeks attack at the publication charlie hebdo. Joining us tonight retired Major General robert scales, fox news military analyst, bob, good to see you. Hi, lou. Lou this is a striking position for hollande, the most left leader in all of europe, sailing into war against radical islamists. Thats true. I just talked to the french ambassador in the green room, and he said something very profound, lou, he says this is our 11. He said to me now we understand, and he says france is the hardest nation on the planet ever to ever to collect together and unify under a single theme or banner. He says these terrorist atrocities have served to do exactly that. You can see hollande is doing exactly the right thing. Sending Charles De Gaulle to the gulf, beginning to arrest people for hate speech, but the french people now understand what we learned on september 11th, 2001, that is this is a global movement. They have an enemy, and its the west western europe the United States and israel, and theyre focused on our direction, and this is a very, very long war, and the french are now all in it. Lou and with the addition of the french where are the germans . Where are the british . Where is europe . Because it is an aggregation now of states many of which are multicultural and bearing all of the strains of multiculturalism trying to deal with that reality and an insidious, dangerous, fierce force within of means to destroy it all. Well you know its interesting, i would credit the british and the germans as being more realistic about this global islamic, radical islamic threat than the United States. I mean weve seen some faux pas and a level of disinterest in this administration about this global war. Lou certainly just among the europeans. Yeah. Lou but lets move to this administration. Okay. Lou this is an administration, while hollande is sending a carrier to the middle east this president is negotiating with the leading terrorist sponsor in the world, iran, to effectively pave the way for their acquisition of nuclear weaponry. At the same time insisting this their is no such thing as a radical islamist engaged in the war of terror against western civilization. We hear people saying you just mentioned a faux pas. I believe this is a conscious, energetic effort on the part of the left to deny a reality to america, theyre high bound they, being americans are high bound on a wave of political correctness. Our National Media doesnt bring critical judgment to this administration because it is for the most part leftist as well . You know its interesting. One of the tenets of military strategy is you have to understand Mission Terrain and troops available. Big one is the e lou, you have to understand your enemy and focus on the enemy. If the administration cant identify who the e is and admit that they are a global radical Islamic Movement that controls territory, draws in young men, and, oh, by the way, thinks at this stage of the game that theyre winning. If we cant get the e right, one thing you can be sure of aqap isis and boko haram know who the e is and the e is us lou. Lou they are targeting us and, the reality is essentially that this president thinks it will all go away or thats what hes trying to pretend. And i think he is pretending here. I think this is more a psychological operation to use the military expression a Propaganda Campaign on the part of a president and administration who know better but who insult the intelligence and knowledge of americans every day. And so far theyve gotten away with it. Its the old thing, if you ignore it theyll go away. Were going slow in iraq doing the least amount that the president can get away with. Were walking away from afghanistan. The respond to these global franchises boko haram in particular have been tepid. Its almost as if and your point about iran is spot on. If we can low ball that and treat it as if its inconsequential, perhaps everybody will change their mind or not do anything against us until the 2016 election. I think that is sticking your head in the sand. The enemy understands who the enemy is and the enemy is going to come after us because they think theyre winning. Lou and it is it is highly questionable problematic, as to whom, the strategems the values and assessments benefit. Right. Lou and that question is one that should be vigorously we should be searching vigorously for an answer to that. Exactly. Lou general bob scales. Time for a look at our online poll, the results to the question we asked whether governor romney is among your top choices for 2016 . 58 of you said yes. Thats good news for the governor. Vote in tonights poll, the question is effectively delegating constitutional powers on the issue of trade to the president. Cast your vote at loudobbs. Com. Up next here the National Media supposed to be the watchdog. What happens when they become lapdogs . A hint, its messy. Thats next. Push your enterprise and you can move the world. But to get from the old way to the new youll need the right it infrastructure. From a partner who knows how to make your enterprise more agile, borderless and secure. Hp helps business move on all the possibilities of today. And stay ready for everything that is still to come. Lou a few comments now on a president ial administration that cant stop denying reality, trying to deceive the American People and distorting the truth. This administration insists the Islamic State isnt islamic. It insists al qaeda is no longer sufficiently dangerous to require the president s attention and refuse to name our enemies. Listen to White House Press secretary josh earnest twisted attempt to explain why the administration refuses to call these radical islamist terrorists what they are. Namely, radical islamists. The first is accuracy. We want to describe exactly what happened. These are individuals who carried out an act of terrorism and later tried to justify that act of terrorism by invoking other religion of islam in their own deviant view of it. The second is this is an act that was roundly condemned by muslim leaders. Again, im describing to you the reasons why we have not chosen to use that label because it doesnt accurately describe what happened. Lou as can you hear, this is an administration of denyers, they deny the deadly Global Campaign of radical islamist terrorists sling propaganda that al qaeda is on the run without so much as a blush, that giving the radical islamist state of Iran Nuclear Weapons wont result in greater danger to the world. And in particular danger to its neighboring states and especially israel the nation iran has vowed to destroy. The Obama National security team, is i think, a threat to the nation. Chuck hagel called it imminent threat to every interest we have. Thats pretty plain. Well president obama tried to sell the idea that the Islamic State is a Junior Varsity team. Our president refused sunday to march with 44 other World Leaders condemning radical islamist terrorism but has the gall to call a Global Security summit once he finds out that was a terrible mistake, in washington next month. Beckoning the very leaders that he ignored and insulted. The National Liberal media has chosen to avert eyes from this president s increasingly authoritarian bent and utter disregard for truth and reality, and rather than restore truth to power the National Media, or most of it is rolling over for mr. Obama just like the lapdogs that theyve begun. I hope i wasnt too harsh. Now the quotation of the evening, this from former massachusetts senator ted kennedy, who said were coming right back.

Listen to my Financial Report three times a day. Business leaders gathering in new york at the wall Street Project economic summit. My next guest among the leaders at the summit calling for diversity in business trying to create economic success for minorities. Joining us is reverend jesse jackson, president , founder of Rainbow Push Coalition and john rodgers, cochair of the wall Street Project economic summit. Good to have you here. Good to see you, lou. Lou jesse, you and i go back a long ways we dont need to bore everybody with how long. Very long. Lou you sustained it over that time, has the impact been what you wanted . It has not been one, lost focus with Silicon Valley 189 board members, 37 women, 3 blacks and 4 latino. When you have patterns of exclusion, you lock out market money, talent and location, weve challenged them to pull down the walls reveal the reports and open up access to capital and to investment intel has done that as well as other companies. Lou intel stepping up. Intel has tended over the years to do that. Theyre one of the most responsible and active Corporate Citizen of the country, i think. Lou john what are your desires, what are the metrics for success here . What i always talk about. I use reverend jacksons comments, i want to get folks i want to call Jackie Robinson moments, so many times theres never been an africanamerican board member or never used africanamerican law firm or banking Investment Firm or Money Management firm, get over the thresh hold. Lets have success and as reverend jackson says once Jackie Robinson played baseball and ernie banks came from chicago and willie mays and the rest came along. Lou and performance in baseball and wall street as you well know, is what counts. We did not know how good baseball could be until everybody could play. We dont know how good wall street could be until all the creativity in market is included in the process. Lou it makes me wonder as you look at what you are trying to do both of you, and Business Leaders on wall street. Its taken 18 years to get to this point, thats been stubbornly sluggish. Theres been great apathy, if not resistance to diversity. Silicon valley is marked by immense Financial Success technological, innovative success. Why in the world is it so difficult to do as well in those businesses as it is broadly in industry in this country . I would jump in and say i think its because they havent had the experience. The companies have been around for a longer time experience of Civil Rights Movement. Im on the board of mcdonalds and exelon theyre doing extraordinary work in these areas on diversity and inclusion but theyve been at it for a long time with enlightened leadership. Theyre used to it. So much of the leadership in Silicon Valley came in place after the Civil Rights Movement heads moved on after dr. King was assassinated. But its also a vision deficit. It does not bring workers from Foreign Countries and training workers at home. Or they have 6 trillion in offshore tax moneys. 10 of that lou, could be 600 billion to invest on infrastructure startup capital. We are laying dormant while cities are sinking. Lou you brought up significant issues. 2 trillion in capital that needs to be repatriated from abroad Corporate America u. S. Nationals. High School Dropout rate that is insufferable. Were wasting lives and futures and the countries, the countrys destiny in so doing. This is such a complicated issue, how do we get Business Leaders who are scared to death, to stand up and be the tallest nail on issues whether its legal immigration, whether it is Border Security whether it is trade policies. Whether it is diversity. How do we get Business Leaders to stand up because they turned to the chamber of commerce and say you talk for us, were going to be quiet and out of the way over here. No one is more in the shadows of this country than ceos of Corporate America . We have to do two things, we encourage Large Companies and Small Companies to partner with urban schools in public areas. We started 18 years ago with public academy. We have a Public School with 600 students. Arne duncan created the school and teaching kids about the stock market. Investing. Even with real money to invest. Getting businesses to get themselves tied to companies. Lou i was working with Manpower Development training in the war on poverty, c. A. P. Round it off to 40 year ago. The issues remain precisely the same high urban minority unemployment. High dropout rates among minority students. Investment Deficit Disorder there is slow growth whenever there is inclusion, there is always growth. Lou do you know how many years i listen to you Say Something so straightforward so true as john kennedy said himself. A rising tide lifts all boats. Weve got administrations and two parties who arent talking about prosperity. I had a meeting with the senator from carolina Lindsey Graham and schumer from the other party trying to find Common Ground on repatriation, and because as bridges are collapsing weve got trillions lying dormant. You look at the citizens. I was in milwaukee last week. 3,000 homes that have been abandoned. They can rebuild all of them for 90 million. The 100 billion in the pension fund. They can rebuild at the same time. Lou ive seen government work hard over the last 40 years on the war on poverty. I havent seen them do much. We arent talking about an effective government. Your project is such a compelling departure from the predictable, the tried and ultimately that which has failed. So i wish you both all of the success in the world, its an important task certainly, and i think you two fellows might get it done. Thats for the creativity and the capital. If the creativity is allowed to flow, great things will come our way. Lou on that, we say great to see you, reverend. Thank you, lou. Lou great to see you, gentlemen.

Lou House Republicans, as we reported approving legislation to try to overturn president obamas executive fiat granting amnesty. Congresswoman Linda Sanchez who chairs the Congressional Hispanic Caucus says republicans were simply pandering to the far right. The bill is reckless, and its mean spirited and its beneath this great country. The bill panders to those in the right wing of the Republican Party who are unhappy with president obamas executive action on immigration. But they are doing this maliciously and foolishly and needlessly putting our country at risk. Lou wow. My next guest says the president s executive fiat was taken for the sole purpose of solidifying the democratic hispanic voting bloc. Joining us is senior fellow contributing editor heather mcdonald. Speaking of meanspirited. My gosh. Congresswoman Linda Sanchez spewing venom and bile there. Completely ignoring what the main issues are, which is the congress should control immigration policy, and we are merely trying to follow the law. But shes impugning the usual playing the race card against people that believe in following the rules. Lou i got a kick out of pandering to the far right in this country. There are few institutions much more right than the u. S. Chamber of commerce, which is doing the bidding of about 136 u. S. Multinationals largest corporations in the country who have a very specific agenda, and its not a left agenda, it is labor, it is open borders, harmonization, if you will, of trade among these countries. How do you react to that . Of course, the people that are hurt the most are low income minority americans. So again the paradoxes are enormous in this situation because you would expect the left would care about American Workers and their ability to get a job. Lou the aflcio is all in for amnesty for bringing people across open borders. Well, i must be making a demographic calculation that in the longterm, they get more Union Members and well sacrifice the interests of our current members. Lou they have a very profound problem. Union members are getting older, theyre losing membership, and will accelerate in the coming years they have to replace them. They feel this is the only market available to them. Again lou, these are pragmatic considerations. What needs to be emphasized, this is a real turning point for our country. Yes, its about immigration but also about the constitution, and if the president succeeds in this unilateral executive action, there is no more confining president ial power, and the democrats will rue this day when they have a republican in power that decides to pass legislation. Lou i think i will rue the day and americans will rue the day, because i am no mood for the congress of the United States to abrogate responsibilities im in no mood for people to pick and choose what they will do with the constitution republicans saying unconstitutional abuse of pow pore issue this executive fiat. At the same time, they are urging passage of trade authority that would turn over article 1 section 8 responsibilities on free trade, on trade, to the president. This is mindless mindless contradiction. There is no intellectual integrity whatsoever in this and the hell of it is the Republican Leadership is on the right side of history, and theyre screwing it up to a faretheewell. We have a hard time following principles, whether it be republicans or democrats. Lou you are not suggesting a mulligan are you . Hold their feet to the fire. Lou as we hold their feet to the fire what is troubling and perplexing is the Republican Party in the house is voted out four bills from the House Judiciary Committee chaired by congressman bob goodlatte, moderate reform of illegal immigration and Border Security. This same speaker who is in a twist on free trade promotion and the president s executive fiat wont support and lead on those four bills which would put the Republican Party at forefront of the debate and move the country forward, why not . I cant answer that, lou, but if he sees some wisdom in what hes doing, i hope hes right. One way or another, they do have to block the executive actions, because it sets a precedent that will never be undone. Lou and so what are we to do . Shall we regard this gesture today, the passing of this legislation to be symbolic . Is it something less than that . Because this bill the senate says, will not pass and the president says he wont sign it, hell veto if it does get to his desk. Maybe its symbolic, they have to do it. If they have the votes they have to do it. I dont know what the alternative is. Im not either, but im not paid to do that. John boehner is the Republican Leadership is. And other empty symbolic gesture is hardly going to elevate the standing of the Republican Party with the american public. They are on the side of the american view and values, and yet the best that can be brought forward controlling two houses of government both houses of the legislature is symbolism. That isnt going to get it. Lou, i dont know what the alternatives are constitutional showdowns are abstract. A question of who blinks first. Congress doesnt have a lot of power beside the law making power to try and block obama. Lou that will be settled in court. The courts are not going to rule on this. They stay out of fights between the branches. Lou keep me alive with hope and anticipation. The ballot box is the way to go. Lou all right. Vote for a president that believes in enforcing the law. Lou i think i hear cheers from the left all over the country. I hope not. Lou heather, thank you very much. The death of eric garner led to changes in new york.

Republican pollster kelly ann conway. Great to be here. Lou i was talking with heather mcdonald. Why is there this ability on the part of republicans to create conflict and with their own principles and their own agendas in one hand pushing for trade promotion for the president , which creeds cedes article one section eight if they have their way and sue the constitution and issuing executive fiats. Rationalize that for us. Todays vote was terrific. It was in keeping with what majority of americans want. They rejected and going around congress and issuing his own executive amnesty by fiat. Republicans pulled back on that by saying that they will fund dhs the republicans were hoping they would not lou did they reverse themselves. Not at all. At the same time they gutted obamas immigration lou republicans are pure of spirit. No. You know i would never say that.

When it comes to executive Authority President obama legislates from 1600 pennsylvania avenue. Is it not a contradiction, but is it smart . The answer is probably no. Lou i want to stay in the realm of principle. I dont think the principles are in conflict. Lou you can keep saying that until youre characterizing it as an executive action lou it is an obvious and i think the way the republicans would defend it, the leadership, this is not necessarily my defense. Lou if they defended it, they will lose it. Its a contradiction. To be honest with the American People, we have obama too sitting in the house and the senate. Could be. I dont think they owe him a thing to be honest with you. Lou you dont think what . That the republicans
