FOXNEWSW On The Record With Greta Van Susteren June 21, 2016 23:00:00

And letters. Thanks for inviting us into your home tonight. That is it for special report for now. Fair, balanced and unafraid. Greta goes on the record next. She said it again. Does your attorney general think if she utters the word transparency over and over and over again that you will buy it . Be as transparent as possible and provide as much information as possible. Over the course of time, we certainly are open to that. Well, after that editing fiasco of yesterday, you still dont have all the transcripts because the department of justice is refusing to release the entire transcript of the orlando shooter calling 911. There are at least 20 manipulates that the doj will not let you see or hear. Whats up with that . And considering that in yesterdays released transcript the doj swapped out the word allah and replaced it with god. Do you even believe that the transcript the doj did release is accurate . That is word from word from the audio or do you suspect some doj funny biz . Well, this is if we had that promised transparency we could verify the transcripts on our own. On the record investigates tonight starting with Lieutenant Colonel alan west. Good evening, sir. Good evening, greta, how are you . Good. Is this much ado about nothing or are you as outraged over this transparency suggestion . It is something we should be concerned about because obviously we have an administration that wants to manipulate the truth and not allow the American People to understand the nature of the enemy that inspired the islamic jihadist attack. The second largest islamic terrorist attack in United States history. Why is it that they want to manipulate this language. Why is it that they want to redact this language and why is it that they feel a need to change the word allah to god . It is unconscionable. It is nothing that no one should accept. This is truly a violation of that first amendment. Well, this is what i dont understand is that why they are dodging on this one. Why dont they just say what it is. If he if the killer himself says he is inspired by isis, al baghdadi the leader of isis someone he swears his allegiance to. Why in the world does the Obama Administration dodge and duck that as though they think we are so stupid that we dont know . Well, you have an administration that continues to obfuscate. They continue to deny and continue to lie about the nature and existence of this enemy because they want to feed us a narrative as you saw the president that they are having success against isis. Dont believe your lyingiteses what you know and see to be happening. If all of the sudden they would recognize this enemy. If all of a sudden they would it be do something about it think of all the jihadist attacks that have occurred in the Obama Administration and we continue to hear their response is that we need to disarm the American People. Well, let me tell you is happening now, colonel west. Im obviously giving him a lot of heat and a lot of other people is, the Obama Administration is taking heat virtually from many for not saying radical islamic terror and today White House Press secretary josh earnst hit back at those critics including me, i guess. The individuals who spend most of their time talking about radical islamic terrorism are individuals like republicans in the senate who voted against legislation that would prevent those individuals from being able to buy a gun and those are individuals who have not actually put forward their own strategy for keeping the country safe. Using the term radical islamic extremism is not a Counter Terrorism strategy. It is a political talking point plain and simple. Colonel, your thoughts on that . Well, first of all, that young man needs to understand something about strategic decisionmaking, especially Strategic Military decisionmaking. We fought about against naziism, imperialism and jihadiism. He would turn attack pearl harbor just an attack against airplanes. You have to understand the ideology of enemy to strategically undermine their messaging and undermine that ideology while you understand their goals and objectives. If omar mateen had gone in with a hammer and club or sword and a knife, you know, it is not about the tool that they use. It is about the ideology that is inspiring them to conduct the actions that they continue to conduct here on our soil and all across the world. I will tell you another thing that me. If they flood a filibuster a task like releasing a transcript and at the same time they brag they are being transparent and redact things out thinking we are that stupid to think when you redact things out you are not being transparent. They expect us to accept that if they cant do task of releasing a transcript how can you have confidence that they any how to fight terrorism . Well, they are not showing that they have the competence to be able to deny this enemy sanctuary. To engage in an Information Operation to underline their ideology. They dont understand how to attack their resourcing and material support. Basically what they believe is that they can come out and do this by rhetoric and do this by briefings and that is just going to continue to embolden this enemy not just in their actions here in america but all across the world. Of course, you know, i know its not an easy job to fight terrorism. Im not trying to pretend that it is. At least we should be straight with the American People. If we are going to be transparent, be transparent. Let me thank you, colonel. Turn to the viewers. My pleasure. Now your chance to vote at home on twitter is it president obama to use radical islam. Tweet yes or no greta. We will show you the results throughout the show. Author of brand new book intimidation game. Kimberly. The left just wants to control information. Kimberly goes on the record from new york city. Good evening. Hi. Whats the whole business about this tape . Am i making much adieu about nothing . Is it something . No because its all part of the same game, greta. They want to control information. And they do that two ways. They do it in the ways you are talking about right now by censoring the transcript. Cutting bits out of press conferences, censoring journalist questions. The other side of it is that they suppress their opponent speech and they do it through intimidation. Thats what my book is about. These cases of the irs putting 400 Tea Party Groups on ice for two election seasons. A wisconsin prosecutor waging a John John Doe probe. Its all designed to people out of the political process. I can accept the truth no matter what it may be and i like transparency. They dont own the government. We lend them power. But, you know, you have got the situation where even in benghazi it was so silly for about three weeks they kept telling us the same silly story like we are stupid that it was a video that provoked it this is what i dont get if the Obama Administration, maybe they think they are too smart for the rest of us. If they would just tell it to us straight, we can accept the truth. But thats what i dont get is the lack of transparency plus saying that it is. Look, they feel they need to control all the information and tell people how to think about things because they are continuing to make mistakes. Look, the war against radical islam is not going well. So they dont want to talk honestly about it. But i think the American People at least for me, can i accept a mistake, you know, because i know its a tough job and i know its tough to predict how to do this. What i cant accept is when i feel like they are trying to pull a fast one on me and trying to make me believe things are true and take words out three days before the fbi director told us what the words were. Thats what i cant accept. Then you lose competence. They should just be able to say this isnt doing well and we will change course. They do it when they have made mistakes. Look what happened in the irs which is parted of my book. They have been out for the last years telling everybody that this is the fault of a couple of line agents in cincinnati who didnt understand the law. The reality is that we know from investigations that we know who did this. We know who inspired it we know how it happened. We knew who was targeted and what we also know is that no one has been held to account. I keep going back to the thing they must think i dont know what they think about the rest of us if they peddle this stuff thats so obviously incomplete or slippery. Anyway, kimberly, thanks. Congratulations on the new book. Thank you. Thanks for having me. And today secretary Hillary Clinton delivering a major speech on the economy while hitting donald trump. She says she is the one to reign in wall street. Trump would take us back to where we were before the crisis. He would rig the economy for wall street again. Well, that will not happen on my watch. I can guarantee you. [ applause ] we cant ever let wall street wreck main street again. Hillary clinton trashes the banks every time she opens her mouth and yet, she made 21 million in two years making speeches to those very banks that she trashes every day. Now, you tell me there isnt some kind of a game being played here . With do you think would happen if we could successfulry inform all of these democrat voters that she and her husband and the entire Democrat Party are in bed with these bankers and contrary to the democrats rav vising these bankers and keeping them honest and all that, that theyre in bed with them. And its not just Rush Limbaugh who doesnt believe her. A brand new Quinnipiac University poll of the three major swing states, florida, ohio, and pennsylvania asked do you believe secretary Hillary Clinton will try to reign in the power of wall street . And the majority in each state says she wont even try. Cohost of the five and author of the soon to be new book wake up, america, eric bolling goes on the record. Congratulations on the new book coming out. Thank you greta. Should you ask me or should i just rip on this. Its terrible what she is doing. We hear so much about the banks and wall street. If you are in my hometown of appleton, wisconsin tonight, listening to this. How important are these banks and reigning them in for me . What does this mean . Or is this just politics . Its clearly politics. The big business on wall street has probably as low of Approval Rating as wall street does in single digits, fat cat rich bankers, president obama liked to take shots at them the. And Hillary Clinton likes to take shots at them saying i will reign them in. What she says and does are two different things. We know she makes millions on speeches from wall street. The other area over the course of her career in campaigns of the five top donors in her campaigns be it senate, president , whatever campaign she has run, three of them are wall street firms. Citigroup, Morgan Stanley and goldman sachs. There is another law firm from wall street. Of the top ten, seven of them are wall street banks. The other one, the Clinton Foundation where they raise hundreds of millions of dollars, the top donors, goldman saks somewhere between 1 and 5 million. Barkley, citigroup, Morgan Stanley. Bank of america, jp morgan several hundred of thousands of dollars to millions of dollars donated to the Clinton Foundation. You can say you are going to reign in the wall street banks and whatnot, but youre certainly not reigning in the donations that they are giving to you or the ones they are giving to the Clinton Foundation. All right. Can i see the hypocrisy of that of going after saying horrible at the same time taking money from them or doing giving speeches to them. What i dont understand, going back to my original question, if you are just sitting here watching, are these big banks demons . Are they destroying our economy . How do they need to be reigned in . What are they doing to me . I think what happened was in the wall street bailout, which i think was a big mistake. You picked a few banks that you wanted to save. You send tens of millions of dollars to citigroup. You sent to goldman sachs. One of the wealthiest companies on the planet propped up two different means. All of these wall street banks were propped up during the financial metdown and they were saved meanwhile they let Lehman Brothers fail and bernsteins fail. Pick hog they were going to save. Those are taxpayer dollars. Give taxpayer dollars to the bank save the banks. Some dont get saved pick and choose who wins. Its ugly thing and americans didnt like seeing it Hillary Clinton is using that to demonize the banks. I guess that i have some sort of a view that the banks in some ways is like vegas. They gamble and dont have a whole lot of product in the sense they dont make anything, they move money around. What are they making . They are making very small numbers. Heres the point. I mean what do they make for the American People . They make liquidity, they make loans. Say somebody has a great idea for business they say i dont have enough money to start this business. You cant get loans. You can but you have to pay an interest rate. Here is a bigger problem with the banks. I come from that world. The bigger problem is we are literally transferring trillions of taxpayer dollars from our hard working americans to the wall street in the form of zero interest rates. In other words, we let a bank borrow from the government at zero and then they take all that money and they loan it to you and me at 3 , 4 , 5 , sometimes 6 for house, cower or Business Loan and they are making the difference. Hard working americans are financing the banks bottom line. That is where people can say i hate what theyre doing on wall street pointing the finger at them. Do that and thats fine but then dont take literally tens of millions of dollars from them. Let me hold this up in case people havent seen it one week from today. Thank you, eric, for joining us. Thank you, greta. Great to be here. And donald trump trying to smooth feathers that he has ruffled with evangelical leaders. Did it work . Three evangelical leaders are here next.

I was very impressed. He was very president ial and really showing a deeper understanding than i have ever seen before of issues that are important to conservatives and to christians. He talked a lot about his Supreme Court nominees. He talked about how they are all going to be prolife. He talked about support for the nation of israel he was strong on issue that. Something very important to the group in that room. He also talked about so many other issues that are so important to he talked about religious freedom. That was the number one concern. Religious liberty because the government now is impin
