team. i m like a bridge between two generations of fox. on the old man. laura: great show tonight, shawn, as always. sean: have a a great show. laura: i m laura ingraham. this is the intermingle. back in washington, d.c., as sean said. what an exciting show. great guests, including an unbelievable twist in the mueller investigation. we ll tell you why hillary clinton and barack obama suddenly have a new connection to it. plus, our seen and unseen segment, raymond arroyo digs into some utterly bizarre trends among all millennials and hillary clinton s expansion into tv. a disturbing report on how easy it may be for non-u.s. citizens to register to vote and cast a ballot. michelle malkin joins us for what it means in the upcoming election. but first, the defenders of lawlessness. that is the focus of tonight s angle . if you want to see just how radical, how extreme democrats have become an immigration, check out the freak at their anti-i.c.e. protests. the siege at the i.c.e. building at portland, oregon, started june 17th and continues today. protesters even followed them home to their residences, follow them when they went to pick up their kids at day care. repeatedly threatening their lives. this was an absolute siege of a i.c.e. facility. a lot of people don t know this. this really isn t getting covered in the mainstream media. we lost that building for ten days, almost two weeks. the protesters took control of that building. again, these were not normal protesters. folks like antifa, violent, militant groups. laura: you know what you haven t seen the media coverage that aspect of it? we have new information for you tonight. to top it all off, portland mayor ted wheeler shot down the terrified i.c.e. officers calls for help. saying that police would respond hawaii, mazie hirono. again, i think we are missing the point. these individuals are there because they have broken the law. there have to be a process. they have broken the law only is deemed so by the president. no, ma am. they are therefore a violation of title eight of the immigration illegal entry, criminal and civil violation. my understanding that under your tolerance, you through them not under civil proceedings but for criminal proceedings. they are both. i m confused. we went okay. god bless her. she s confused. all that volcanic ash dash if they violate the laws, there will be a penalty. the pundits wonder how trump got elected. roughly 2500 children who were separated from their family units at the u.s.-mexico border. more than 1800 have already been reunited with her parents. of the 700 children are so who Laura Ingraham shines a spotlight on everyday Americans and examines how their lives are affected by politics at the federal, state and local level. security that will include the wall! that will include the wall. laura: the applause went on and on last night. the biggest a blonde wind when the of immigration came up. look, in my mind, it s actually sad, it s really sad to see what happened to the party of fdr and john f. kennedy, the democratic party. on this issue and so many others, they used to believe america was worth defending. laws, or constitution, the declaration, her borders, her h. now their most vocal voices believe it is time to destroy that old order and replace it with something closer to socialism. but we are not about to let that happen. and that is the angle. joining me an awful reaction is tom homan, the former acting director of the i.c.e. mr. homan, thank you so much for being here. i got to tell you, when i see what s going on in portland, oregon, beautiful portland, a lot of history of political activism, that s fine, this is not your ordinary political activism. what s happening there that the american people are not seeing because the media will not adequately cover this story? during the time i saw your clips earlier, and chris kramer is right. the mayor has refused to take action on those folks that have illegally prevented us from doing our jobs by shutting our building to hover over a week. how many child molesters, predators, weren t arrested that week? committee criminal aliens, aliens would enter this country illegally and commit yet another crime or director that we? a lot of criminals are not walking the streets of portland that would have been arrested that week. the mayor turned his back on the citizens of portland for his own political ambitions. laura: chris crane was talking about the nt for infiltration, or someone would say takeover of this protest. are the run-of-the-mill, kind of millennial protesters, with the magic marker signs, and the black mask people, kind of working hand in glove there from what you are gathering? yeah, i watched video of the portland office showed on for days. antifa was there. in a matter of fact, they hung their antifa flag up over laura: they talked on the u.s. flag, they climbed the building, they took on the u.s. flag, and they replaced it with? yes, ma am. i.c.e., the first thing they did when they took a building back, the patriots raised the building back up. laura: the only thing i can think about it is when isis was rolling through parts of iraq. they were going to those christian villagers in mosul and so forth. they were knocking down those churches, taking up the cross, and raising the isis flag. as a form of domestic terror. it s pathetic, what s going on in portland. i don t know who is worse than that mayor or the mayor in oakland, philadelphia, the whole bunch of them right now, who have never accepted this president, and they will put their own political ambitions ahead of the public safety of their citizens. no the mayor of portland, i m sure he will hear about that, these i.c.e. employees, are also tax payers and citizens of the city of portland. he has a duty to protect them. laura: ever teach outcome interesting name, democratic candidate for a new york attorney general, calls to abolish i.c.e. i.c.e. has to be abolished and as attorney general, i will continue to speak out against i.c.e., i will prosecute i.c.e. for their criminal acts. we have stories of consistent abuse. the idea that we could call this law enforcement is a real offense to the idea of law itself. laura: a real offense. i think she s mixing up i think she means offense. that s okay. i ve never seen that video but now i m more irritated than i was when i walked in here. that attorney general laura: candidate. candidate. i hope that is as far as she gets. look, prosecute i.c.e. agents? i.c.e. officers and agents have taken more than 5,000 criminal aliens up the street in new york. that walked out of there sanctuary jails. i.c.e. has done more for public safety in that state in their own governor has. i.c.e. officers on the northern border have shut down opioid trade and laura: but they say the reason they are upset is because you are separating families, you are focused on deporting these families, when you should be focused on the illegal immigrants. they are conflating border patrol, hhs, detainment centers, and i.c.e. they are putting them in one big pot. what you could do a better job if you weren t focusing on these four children. let me tell you about separating families. watch the hearing and i was quite disturbed by some of the questions by democrats. they kept wanting to put the blame on border patrols and i.c.e. we have a process, we ve been separating families for decades, first of all. laura: decades. decades. they want to blame somebody? congress need to look in the mirror. i have been up on the hill several times along with the head of cdp and cis talking about the loopholes, if they want these folks to see a judge and claim asylum, we do, too. there is one way to guarantee to see a judge is to keep it in a family residential center. they don t want to do that. they refuse to fix the loopholes, the attorney general did what he had to do operationally to defend our borders. the attorney general did exactly what he should have done. laura: zero tolerance is a way to go. he was right. we have a runaway judge situation in this country. they are acting as super legislators. speak of a judge in san diego, he ordered during the unification stop, the dna testing, when we did the dna testing, 55 and 7% were at the parents. if you bring that to 2500 people, how many children do we have to release them to people that want their parents because i judge decided the dna wasn t important? laura: other 20% of kids were not brought across by their parents there s 10,000 children in custody, hhs that were separated by their parents who hired criminal organizations to put their credit in the trunk of a car and smuggled into united states. that is child abuse. laura: who are the parents who send their kids across the border alone? what kind of parent is at? the administration of dash putting your code in the trunk of a car and smuggling to united states. laura: tom homan, great to see you. we miss you at the homeland. i m in the fight. laura: good for for you. bob mueller is the mayor to make it significant concession to the trump legal team. he s agreed to reduce the number of questions for president trump and a potential interview from his initial list of 49. mueller is also willing to accept some answers in writing, though he wants oral ancestor others. trump attorney rudy giuliani responded to the tug-of-war over an interview earlier today. they sent us a proposal. we responded to that proposal. it took about ten days and yesterday, we got a letter back. we are in the process of responding. at the end of it, they should render their report, put up i guess, put up or shut up, what you got? we have every reason to believe they don t have anything. laura: joining us now to analyze, alan dershowitz, author of the book, the case against abusing, impeaching trump, along with sol wisenberg, from the whitewater investigation. professor dershowitz, what you make of this development? the posted concessions, they don t on the concessions to me. down from 49 questions, some in writing. as a change the calculus? i don t think so. it s not about quantity. it s all about quality. all he has to do is ask one question, what was your motive, why did you file your comey, or why did you ask comey may be to go easy on flynn? all they want to do is get him to say in a context where he would be charged with a crime, something that is controversial, and something that somebody else will come in and testify and say, no, he told me something different. no, he told me that his motive was this or that. motives are so vague and subjective. and you can be charged with lying to prosecution officials, even if you tell the truth. if there is another witness who comes in and gives a different account and the prosecutor is trying to get you. they want to put you in perjury trap. believes or says he believes tho made out only be singing, but he may be composing, in order to get a better deal. you ve walked into a perjury trap. in the end, i don t think as lawyers are going to let president trump testify orally at all. look, the president make it his way. he says he wants to testify. but no lawyer is going to walk his client into a perjury trap. laura: tonight, the new york times is reporting that the president is pushing for an interview with mueller against the advice of counsel. now i don t know if this is kind of a they are playing around here on this, good p.r., or if that is the real deal. but let s pretend for the moment that is real. your reaction? i think it is suicidal. i think it s idiotic. i agree with the professor. here is the real peace here. based on everything we know, they don t have anything close to an obstruction case on the president. but it is much easier, in addition to the stuff that professor dershowitz said, it is much easier to prove a case of flying to the government under 18 u.s. code section 1,001 than it is to prove an obstruction case, particularly based on what they have. it has to be material, but the threshold for a material blog is extremely low. and their cases are legion of convicting people under 1,001 and including martha stewart. it s a terrible strategy and i can t believe i would physically restrain my client in these circumstances. laura: [laughs] you and i both. hold on, alan. we all stay for another segment. we have an incredible story ahead. hillary clinton and barack obama is a stunning connection now to the mueller probe. you won t believe this. stay here. chicken?! chicken. chicken! that s right, candace new chicken creations from starkist. buffalo style chicken in a pouch bold choice, charlie! just tear, eat. mmmmm. and go! try all of my chicken creations! chicken! one of the other cable news network boots recently, first of all you probably are bombarded with updates on former trump campaign chair mark paul manafort federal trial kicked off today. despite no allegations of russian collusion, he is facing serious prison time in a case brought by the special counsel, bob mueller. it s not related that manafort s work that russian friendly ukrainian political party that. predated his time at the trump campaign. i got swept up in this whole deal. interestingly, there are reports that mueller has referred three cases to federal prosecutors in manhattan involving high-profile lobbyists who also worked on behalf of that same ukrainian linked group. without registering as foreign agents. haven t heard much about that. have you? could it be that, because, well, one of those names is tony podesta? super lobbyist and the democratic party and brother of john, the chairman of hillary s failed 2016 campaign. or that other name, greg craig? former white house counsel for barack obama. re-joining us now for reaction, alan dershowitz, and sol wisenberg. okay, guys. how potentially serious, or not, is the deal with referring both podesta and greg craig to the southern district of new york? greg craig, full disclosure, work for my old law firm, and they parted ways. months back. let s start with you, professor dershowitz. what is going on here? greg is a great guy. he lives on martha s vineyard with me. i see them periodically over the summer. full disclosure. look, this proves that you never needed a special counsel. they are taking these cases more and more and referring them to ordinary u.s. attorney s office. the man a manafort case could have been tried by the u.s. attorney s office in northern virginia. the other manafort case by the district of columbia he was attorney s office. why do we need a special counsel? the cases don t involve russia for the most part were the only cases that involve russia are cases that will never be tried at all, the 12 russians. they are not coming to disneyland any day soon to be served. they are not going to be expedited by vladimir putin. so we are seeing more and more proof that we never needed a special counsel. the special counsel will end up filing a report and getting some low-hanging fruit and getting some convictions, largely unrelated to waters mandate originally was. i didn t like the special counsel when they were appointed to get bill clinton, i didn t like them in other cases. i don t like them now. it is against the principles of democracy. laura: sol, we are vacuuming up a lot of information about people, and it is going after the special the southern district of new york, same deal with michael cohen. it doesn t seem like it is expanding to places that have nothing to do with the original charge. two things in mind. one, i think probably, if it has related gone to the southern district, unlike michael cohen where they could say it is not in our daily work, here, this part of the original manafort thing, but here, they will decline those cases, and my guess, and of mueller declines cases against democrats, he would get a tremendous amount of criticism for it. so it s easier to send it to the southern district. laura: it looks better for mueller, who s been accused by the president of having 17 prosecutors i don t agree laura: not all of them have ties to the democrats. the president shouldn t be doing that. here s the other thing. here s a difference. right or wrong, mueller sees manafort as a key to his russia conspiracy case. he believes, right or wrong, that manafort knows that something manafort is the key and that is why he is going after manafort that he is clearly going to laura: judge ellis said that today. he said it repeatedly. he says i don t like it by the system let him do that. every prosecutor has done that at some point in their career. that is the key to mueller. manafort is the key. the question is, if he s convicted, does he become what susan mcdougall, and say, not steve, i m still not talking to you, or does he say, he d rather talk if he has any information? laura: he was at in the trump campaign for 5 minutes. four or five months. laura: i don t think trump is worried about paul manafort. i know for a fact he s not worried about her. dershowitz you made a very good point, though. he made a very important point. it s much easier for you to tell mike he was attorney to decline a case and that is why we should have u.s. attorneys. they are professional prosecutors. and they don t have a target. they can decline cases if the facts and the law don t warrant prosecution. it s harder for a special counsel to do that. laura: let s advance his narrative today. we have this trial kicking off in in the east or director. and, instruct me, it struck me that much of the time in theg statements, a lot of the conversation went to paul manafort s wealth. and there was one point where they brought in this witness, okay, maximilian katzman, former manager of the new york city men s where story. he claimed manafort spent $929,000 on suits between 2010 and 2014. judge ellis then says can t take this old judge ellis away, all this document shows is that mr. manafort had a lavish lifestyle. he had a nice home with a pool and a gazebo. it s not relevant. of course he went out to make a really funny comment about the clothes, saying he spent a lot of clothes and it wasn t even that well-dressed. is it a crime is a crime not to spend a lot of money, but we got a lot of people guilty of that in this town, washington, d.c. if he doesn t say men s warehouse, i don t know anything about it. laura: i like t.j. maxx. he likes men s warehouse. that is my kind of judge. that is my kind of judge. i will never be convicted of anything, expensive clothing is a prerequisite. i also go to men s warehouse. speak of the interesting thing is under the law, the prussic -e law is terrible at showing lavish lifestyle. under the law, the prosecutors, and most courts would be allowed to say that but judge ellis really doesn t like it. every time he makes those comments, the jury is listening and they know he doesn t like it. laura: professor dershowitz, at one point, they talked about the fact that manafort used foreign wire transfers to pay for his clothe clothes. this maximilian katzman, who is the kato kaelin of the trail so far, he says she says, well,r i ve ever had. who cares? this is not against the law. i don t know what manafort did. i think this whole thing i don t know, my antenna, my spidey senses are going up about this case. i don t know if it is rick gates, if they are afraid to bring him and as a prosecution witness, they seem to be hesitant about bringing gates income which i find interesting. professor? whenever you bring a witness who has admitted to lying, it is a very hard job to put them on the stand. the witness always says, i lied to the past, i know that, but now i am telling you the truth. the lawyer for the defense says, you expected benefits from telling the truth. don t you expect to get a good deal? but it is very hard to get a successful conviction based on a flipped witness who might not only be singing, but composing. this judge is very synthetic to that. he used that term. he said sometimes witnesses who are squeezed, not only think about compose, and make the case better in order to get a better deal. laura: real quick, they talked about not doing that early morning raid. apparently, the fbi had a key to his condo. they said, how did you have a key? we said, we don t know how we had the key. a little weird. a little weird. again, this is my own litigator sense. that is interesting. listen, gate is going to testify. laura: gate is going to testify. guys, we ll have you back all the time. this is really interesting. great panels, great to see you in person. big name now scouring hollywood for new production gigs. we ll tell you about the latest. raymond arroyo next. starbucks? they are willing to move, they are willing to change, find their destiny. they are more mobile than we are. here s what they are doing. they have adopted what is called small house movements, where they live in campers, or rvs. laura: or containers. these little babies, they are offering to them, they are also living in pods and their parents backyards. now three fourths of all campers are generation x and millennials because they are transient, they are impermanent a little bit, but there is an interesting thing i saw in the los angeles times, a ton of other periodicals. they are green thumbs among the millennial generation. laura: how do we go from containers i will make it. listen. a2017 gardening survey found that of the 6 million new gardeners in america, 5 million are age 18-34. they are millennials they are cohabitating with plants, laura plates. when there is too much of a commitment of a cat. they don t want to go all the way with a cat laura: a cactus. a character s earned will work. let s go back to the dash they are jamming their apartments with greenery because they want a sense of connectedness. my take on this is he wanted something natural in an impermanent world. my advice, get a pet, get a child. laura: get a child? where you going to get that? costco? got to get married first. that s usually how it happens. my advice, don t spend your youth on the ficus. it would not give you a mother s day card. when you get old, and will not order you. don t do that. there is more we have to do that, and of course, i have to tell you about a great decision by netflix this week. they released a notice to subscribers that they would soon be streaming a new documentary with a very snappy title. the honorable minister louis farrakhan: my life s journey through music it was called. this week, netflix said that the documentary would not be airing on their service. this is based on a five cd musical release. i had forgotten laura: i used to played on my radio years ago. i had forgotten. laura: screwy louis. i wouldn t google that. laura: he s talented. a calypso singer. laura: harry belafonte of calypso. harry belafonte of haiti. here is his calypso a little bit of his upcoming album that the documentary is based on. an album that speaks from the pain of the heart of a little boy wanting to see his people, this is a project that attracted some of the most brilliant, award-winning musicians and artists. now chaka khan, stevie wonder i hope he is going to sing a duet of you are the anti-semite of my life that would be cute together. chaka khan, common, why are these people lending their names to someone like louis farrakhan? this man has peddled hate like no one else. i have to tell you, when i started listening to some of his original compositions, laura, this is something you could put a playlist together, it s really fun laura: radio show. for the radio show. he s got a song called heat of the call, yell, of white man s heaven is a black man tell. listen. of torture, and misgivings, yet the bible speaks of a heaven filled with material luxury, which the white man and the preacher has right here. laura: [laughs] white man s day is done. laura: there is no rhyming. this is like a cornel west combo, cormorant dome at cornel west with reverend wright. it is william shatner meets reverend wright. laura: for space odyssey music. hurry up. hillary, branching into tv, you tease this earlier. she has a new deal with steven spielberg. laura: of course! let me tell you about this, how did you get a good, no tv experience at all. she read a book on the suffragette movement. you like to become a product to her lawyer, bob barnett, he took it to spielberg, he bought it and made her an executive producer. this is how it happens. laura: this is how hollywood takes care of its own. laura: you know what you need to do? find a book and bring it to your lawyer. laura: i m sure. by the way, the notorious rbd, i was down at dinesh deserves her, i went to the premiere of his movie, guess what the first break poster was, the first dash ruth bader ginsburg. the new superhero of the left. now the obama s netflix, hillary hillary is at cbs. she is going to be on madam secretary on their premiere, playing herself. you can dvr it. you love it. laura: with harvey weinstein gun, the clintons needs a benefactor in hollywood. rate agreement, thank you so much. i can t get that screwy louis out of my head. you will be grooving to that. laura: i m surprised he didn t do it in numerology. remember the numerology? he loves the numbers. this is new to me. laura: the left is enraged by a new documentary, speaking of dinesh d souza, chocked full of inflammatory claims about democrats about u.s. history. he joins us with his reaction right after his world premiere tonight. the upper next. around the house. or. around the yard. on the shelf. or even. out in the field. your mom knew she could always count on us. and your grandma did too. because for over 150 years, we ve been right by your side. advancing the health of the people, plants and pets you love. so, from all of us at bayer. thank you for trusting in us. then. and now. both mussolini and hitler set up and ran welfare states. this was done by the liberals come the people who wanted to improve society. laura: joining us now with more, dinesh d souza, whose film, as i said, had the big washington, d.c., premiere tonight. huh, dinesh, good to see you. you are really kicking the hornets nest with this film. it s out tonight. you have a book out today, we ll have you on radio tomorrow, the next day. they are saying you are making leaps of logic, democrats are the real racists, look at where they are doing to these poor kids in in the detention cente. trump doesn t like brown people. he s putting his immigration enforcement is a place. what is your response to all these critics? there s a lot here. the movie focuses on two things, racism on the one hand, and fascism on the other. as you know, from the time trump was elected, the left has been dropping these two big incendiary bombs, not just on trump but on the right, but on conservatives and republicans. so the movie has a historical component because it dives into what is awaiting a fascism, who is the real party of racism, but where it really kicks off with that looks at where is the fascism today, where s the racism today? and it shows that it is the fascist and racist detail belong not on the republican elephant but on the democratic donkey. laura: getting a lot of hits from variety, the guardian, they love you, and this embarrassing new film from the far right provocative all personal attacks, dinesh d souza, he compares donald trump to abraham lincoln, claims hitler was lgbt friendly and calls antifa the real nazis. let s talk about this trump-lincoln business. the idea of marking their heads together but look at how similar their situations are. in 1860 come outside a president, lincoln, comes in. he s narrowly elected, in a three-man race. and the moment he gets in, all hell breaks loose. the democrats in the north are calling for his assassination, which happens eventually. the democrats in the south are willing to break off the country. so they are trying to get rid of lincoln, you may say, by any means necessary. look at how eerily similar that is our moment. trump faces a democratic party that is still refusing to accept the result of a loss of election, wants to get rid of trump however they can, and is pursuing all the strategies, including the inflammatory race card and fascism card, to discredit trump. laura: this antifa group is terrifying. black masks, whipping molotov cocktails, throwing desks through windows, with signs come stop the fascists. they are antifascist brady point out in the film, which is lucky enough to see the first 20 minutes or before had to come to the show, they want to stop speech. you have dealt with it on college campuses for decades. they want to stop speech, stop debate, and they are terrorizing people, trump speaking out. they look like fascist, the act likes fascists except they could claim to be antifascist. i think i am also red, not just about antifa on the street but i would call the fascism of the deep state. when a party employs the weapons of the state, the fbi, irs laura: john brennan. against the political opponents, you re merging the unity of the party with the idea of the government. now mussolini did that. hitler did that. so that is as close as you will get to clinical fascism american-style. yet it s coming from the left. laura: richard spencer is him on the left holds up as he s alt-right, he is the real republican party, he s racist, and you actually interviewed him. he was at that charlottesville rally. you interviewed him in the movie. let s watch. what would be your take on reagan? i do not think he was a great president wade who is your favorite president? there was something about jackson. they are something about pole, as well, someone who only served one term. jackson and pull, bow both democrats. party party is just the vessel that one uses. jackson is the founder of the democratic party. laura: dinesh, you and i have been doing this politics culture stop since we were at dartmouth together in the 1980s. have you ever i ve never heard of this richard spencer until 5 minutes ago. i literally had never heard of him. there is a deep strain of leftism inside the white nationalist movement. jason kessler, the organizer of the charlottesville rally, was an obama supporter. think about it. a white supremacist who voted for obama. and in occupy wall street guy. now this guy, richard spencer, and the core part of the interview, i asked him, where do your rights come from? they come from god? he goes, no. we don t have any rights. the right that we have are given to us by the government. so he s a statist, he s a collectivist. and yet the left, when they see this, it horrifies them because it doesn t fit their narrative. and so they don t want to interview spencer in this kind of thing. i think the movie in a way blows the whistle on charlottesville and that whole charlottesville narrative and it blows it up and shows that there is a whole unreported side of it in which the left statists are trying ultimately to smear the right with guys like spencer, who are their willing accomplices. laura: do you think is movie in a way is a combination of, liberal the liberal education the end of racism. laura: the end of racism. a lot of the stuff you ve written about in a way comes together right before the midterms. everybody has to see this film. the race narrative i have been pursuing for 20 years. the fascism narrative is new and it s eye-opening to me. we have a scene in the movie, of nazis getting ready to pass the nuremberg laws against the jews and they have the laws of the democratic jim crow south and may have them as the nazi laws. laura: congratulations. but, will, driving all the right people crazy. thank you so much for being here. but just how easy is it for noncitizens to vote? cast ballots? can be that easy, right? guess what, michelle malkin will tell us the truth next. and all from a gentle mist you can barely feel. flonase sensimist. laura: a disturbing report is raising questions about non-u.s. citizens ability to register to vote and cast ballots. the washington times reported, noncitizens are signing up to vote in states including pennsylvania, new jersey, and virginia, according to the research where the public interest legal foundation, the nonproduct on my profit organization. they found that a lot of of the that noncitizens manager cast ballots as well. yet, here s a common refrain we always hear from democrats. the voter fraud mantra is said to so often, it is almost said robotically, that some peoe have unthinkingly begun to believe that the issue is real. this whole notion of elections, or voting fraud this is something that has constantly been disproved. this is fake news. the notion that they are a whole bunch of people out there who are going out there and are not eligible to vote and want to vote. we have the opposite problem. laura: joining us now with the reaction, conservative commentator, see our tv host michelle malkin. those golden oldies are just they are the gifts that keep on giving. they are always worried about voter i.d. because they think it is so hard to get a government issued i.d. in this country, really difficult. they think that is onerous. but then they are not worried about illegal immigrant voting, they brushed it off, even if it cancels out a legal citizens vote in any given reaction. your reaction to this report? laura, first of all, i commend the public interest legal foundation for doing the work that the liberal, open borders press won t do. you ve got the leftists in the elite media screaming about foreign interference and meddling in our political system and having noncitizens and illegal aliens voting at our ballot boxes is the textbook definition of foreign meddling. this goes back years and years and years. back when i lived on the east coast, of course, all around me, all of the counties in then-liberal blue maryland were inviting noncitizens, and they kept it very vague. they said, we only want illegal immigrants who have a naturalized yet to be able to feel a part of the process and cast their ballots and school boards. this has been the gateway, laura, as you know, for all manner of legalizing illegal aliens participation in civic and electoral life. it is radical and it s transformative and it s happened right before our eyes, all legally. that is the real scandal here. whether it is judicial watch or project veritas, and the last several election cycles, has been able to do undercover work, show that democrats are nonchalant about it, what it shows you are that these people are more interested in banning plastic straws and 3d guns than they are in illegal aliens from the ballot box. to be when you see this story this week, last week, san francisco, local board elections, school board elections, legal immigrants now can vote. they say, they are in the community, why shouldn t they have a right to vote? now we have that ninth circuit ruling today that you can t defund sanctuary cities. you can always count on the ninth circuit court of appeals on the issue of immigration to get it wrong. i m sure it will be reversed with the supreme court were nevertheless, the president is up against my completely biased media, perfectly ill-informed my judges, until they can appoint far, and to democrats and the old g.o.p. guards. they don t want that wall. let s face it. the g.o.p. on capitol hill, they do not want to this wall. correct, michelle? do not want at. yes, they don t. we have fought these people for a long time, you and i, laura, long before there were a lot of johnny-come-lately is on this issue. we could smoke out the phonies in in the lip service payers from the people who truly believe in these fundamental principles of sovereignty. it is going to be a reckoning, these midterms. i have said many times as people have tried to sort of downplay the internal strife over this, of course it should be front and center of the midterms. the gallup polls are now showing that the majority of americans are with us more than ever. you ve got to left-wing enclaves, even in oregon, which now has an anti-sanctuary measure on the ballot, and it qualified with i think something like 50 or 60,000 more signatures than were needed. that is left-wing pacific northwest oregon! when it is beltway g.o.p. going to get the message? laura: michelle malkin, you have done such great reporting on this. you were also doing some reporting on another case we will try to get you next week that involves criminal justice reform, and i can tweet something you know what i m talking about. i don t want to get too far into it. i want to bring you back to discuss that particular case next week. thank you so much. thank you, laura. i am so grateful. wrongful convictions are a huge issue for me. laura: wrongful convictions, prosecutors who are out of control in our country, and people rotting in prison when they could actually be gainful members of society. there s a lot of abuses out there. we really appreciate your covering not. michelle malkin, thank you so much. we have a lot to still get to. we ll squeeze it in, if we can, when we come back. oh! oh! ozempic®!

(vo) ask your healthcare provider if ozempic® is right for you. laura: we didn t have time for raymond s last topic. 30 seconds. neil diamond announced, the great american legendary singer, he was going to be retiring because of parkinson s. he broke that promise to speak, or sing rather, to think these firefighters in colorado. watch this.
Commentary, newsmaker interviews and panel discussions. like could become a violent situation, if you did, by the way, good for you. on this program we called out by a spirit we will do so as long as i m allowed the honor to be here every night. we show the clips of the media. at their very worst moments. we tell our viewers to turn the channel if they don t like our coverage, but we don t support boycotts. if we demand firings. we don t support firings of any kind, nor will we ever. it s called telling the truth. and just because people chant fake news doesn t mean they would support any kind of violence in any way and of course there s plenty of bad rhetoric on a lot of sides of the aisle. your network in particular, others in the mainstream media. you are not exactly telling the full story about things to the american people and i see abusive bias every single day purity largely ignored the nasty rhetoric against melania trump. many glossed over the scary rhetoric about ivanka trump, the president s young son bearing. even his 4-year-old granddaughter, the president s granddaughter and you totally seem to have forgotten the overwhelming amount of violent rhetoric against president trump himself. what did you say during these moments? take a look. and with this kind of inspiration i will go and take trump out tonight. yes! i have thought an awful lot of blowing up the white house. one with the last time an actor assassinated the presiden president? i want to clarify, i m not an actor. i live for a living. however, it s been a while. and maybe it s time. how dare he say the things he does. of course i want to punch him in the face. right. the press always asked me don t i wish i were debating him? don t i wish we were in high school i could take in deals, he gets criticized for that. obviously the success is not something that s reported on often and by the way it seems that many in this country want this president to fail because if he fails then that means democrats can get back in power. i even think of president trump cure cancer at this point many in the media, many on the left would still hate him. it s a prime reason why the media is so obsessed with mueller s partisan witch hunt. they want to see this president impeached. if they have been trying to attack his credibility since he s been elected. earlier today the president s attorney rudy giuliani called for mueller to finally begin to wrap this up. watch this. the investigation should be brought to a close. we think they are at the end of it. they should render their report report put up a shutout, what he got. we have every reason to believe they don t have anything. no evidence of anything wrong. sean: study on twitter the president himself called on the attorney general jeff sessions to end this investigation. he tweeted out this is a terrible situation. the attorney general jeff sessions should stop this rigged witch hunt right now before it continues to stain our country any further. bob mueller is totally conflicted and has 17 angry democrats that are doing his dirty work are a disgrace to the u.s. and then the president continued russian collusion with the term campaign, one of the most unsuccessful in history as a total hoax. the democrats, they actually paid for the phony, discredited dossier which was, along with comey, mccabe, peter struck at his lover, the lovely lisa page, used to begin the witch hunt. a very disgraceful. by the way the dossier is phony lies and fisa judges were lied to. many in the media are now saying president trump actually obstructed justice because he tweeted out his opposition to all that has happened with no evidence and criticizing what is a witch hunt. in other words, telling the truth. take a look. these basically sort of delegitimizing our system of government. maybe this is the beginning of a new saturday night massacre and one has to wonder whether mr. trump is feeling the pressure of the manafort trial. it looks like he may very well have obstructed justice in this particular case. that s why i find it particularly ironic that he seems to be continuing to try to obstruct and end this case so publicly. they are starting to feel the collusion investigation closing in a little bit more. we are getting donald trump s most overt and obstructionist tweets to date. it s not a surprise. just around this little incident will be a strong mini case of obstruction. sean: crisis to crisis, moral outrage every second. just another example of what is groupthink in action. and it s the same reason the mainstream media has been telling you the trial of paul manafort on a 2005 tax case is the trial of the century, and of course it is anything but. manafort worked for then candidate trump i think less than 100 days. the charges that he s now facing have nothing to do with trump, nothing. nothing to do with the campaign, zero. nothing to do with russia, zero. nothing about collusion. it still, manafort is facing serious time in prison if convicted and the success rate by the way for federal cases is really high, 98%. that means this is an uphill battle when the full force of the federal government is going after any american, in this case paul manafort. the judge overseeing the trial, he s not cutting the mueller team any slack and before manafort s proceeding even started he accused mueller and his team imagine a judge saying this to the special counsel. this isn t about paul manafort. this isn t about a tax case. you want to tighten the screws on paul manafort. you want to make him sing and provide dirt against president trump or compose, meaning what do i need to say to get out of trouble so you can prosecute or impeach donald trump. this case is about a 2005 tax case. nothing to do with trump, nothing to do with russia, nothing to do with collusion and the only reason there is all of this media coverage is because he worked for then candidate trump for less than 100 days and according to accounts from inside the courtroom judge ellis even interrupted the team of prosecutors in their opening statement because paul manafort made money in his life and was living a lavish lifestyle telling the jury it s not a crime to be rich in america and telling them to move on. if the also chastising the prosecution over the word oligarch and now one more blow for the special counsel, their star witness, rick gates. they are saying he may not testify right now. by the way, what have they offered gates? said last night killed 19 people, doesn t spend a day in jail because they used him to testify against john gotti sr. and they get him a home in the witness protection program in arizona. are we not beginning to have a problem with the way they work the system? i have no idea what paul manafort did or didn t do in 2005 to 2007. i didn t know him. but i do know that this trial is only happening because robert mueller is desperate to get president trump. if they wanted manafort to sing or compose. he s desperate to find something, anything on the president. it doesn t matter it seems what told this is all taking on our country. and you talk about language, you talk about the feeling of threats. jim acosta, you are not the only one. the president of the united states not that long ago telling somebody to first get in people s faces and then you will send somebody to tear me up. did president trump ever say this about you? i will put mr. burgess up against sean hannity. he will tear him up. i need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. i want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are republican. i want you to argue with them and get in their face sean: get in their face. worse than chanting face news? tear up sean hannity? what about maxine waters says, follow him into the grocery store, wherever she said to follow people, or cory booker. joining us now, fox news national security strategist dr. sebastian gorka. author of the brand-new book, a best seller, the briefing. a former white house press secretary of the worst job in america, now sarah sanders sadly has it. why anybody wants that job to deal with these people every day is beyond me. congrats on the book. their memories are short. because what happened to pam bondi and secretary nielsen, what happened to sarah sanders, the things that have been said about the president s son are fairly recent and his granddaughter are recent. the things said about melania, ivanka and so many others that are close to the first family. i don t remember jim acosta as the great champion standing up for the first family or calling them would love to know if you recall them and said i m so sorry for what you ve been through. they love playing clips about me getting heckled and intimidated. they think it s funny and amusing. i would associate my comments with your opening monologue. we have a country that allows people to express themselves freely and that s what makes our country great. but at the same time i agree with you. we need a free and fair press that is robust, but it should never, ever be under attack with intimidation or violence. if jim acosta has a problem with some of the ability of people to express themselves he should look at his own unprofessional and disrespectful behavior. look in the mirror and wonder whether he s part of the proble problem. we should never be threatening anybody with violence. but it s interesting how he s only concerned with himself and his colleagues as opposed to the violence that has come against the right, people like myself, sarah, secretary nielsen and others. i want to go out there and have a book to talk about, to exchange ideas with people. and they don t seem to worry about that sort of intimidation and that sort of disruption. sean: did them acosta ever call you about the heckling that you received? no, he was part of it. his unprofessional and disrespectful behavior is part of the problem. the way he treated the president the other day in that rose garden was disgraceful. he owes the president an apology. it is not his question that he is entitled to, it is the president to give it to him. and as much as people may not sean: this is important because i ve had the same experience. every conservative i know has the same experience. i don t come on tv and one that i have been heckled or people have tried to physically get to me or that my life has been threatened and that i ve had people literally threatened my life, it has happened more often than i care to exist, it s wrong. but it s not the same as chanting fake news and cnn sucks and people have a right to freedom of speech whether it s against sean or me or dr. sebastian gorka, i m sure you ve experienced it as well. o have i ever. i have to give my colleague sean all the recognition. he was on the front line on the podium. but i was in the press briefing room. i would sneak in and from the back i would watch. and jim acosta thinks it s his briefing room. he really thinks it s the gym acosta show. and it s not. it s the white house briefing room. he s got it backwards. two metrics, just to metrics for both of you and for the viewers. go back 20 years. go back 40 years and find for me when the white house press corps salivated over a republican president. you won t find it. you won t find it. sean: we will take it a step further and i said this and i will go back and pull the tape, many, many times when barack obama was president. if we must keep our politicians safe and i m telling we are the highest rated show in cabell thanks this audience. if i am there, i will be the first person to defend anybody in the press if anyone would dare to lay a hand on them but chanting you stock is not the same as violence. people have a right to speak in this country. it s not just the price, if any american. no american should feel threatened to share their voice and their opinion, no american. but republican politicians have never said harass the other party, get in their faces, it s only the left, it s only the democrats and they need to get a grip on their party before things get worse. sean: i challenged him to maybe talk to those people that through poor sarah sanders out of the restaurant and pam bondi and secretary nielsen and somebody at his network that had a severed head. i know she got fired, the president that his 12-year-old son saw. let s start with ourselves. anyway, when we come back with got a lot of breaking news. big news out of the white house about the back-and-forth between the trump the president s legal team, robert mueller, joe to jen about is on fire, he s next, straight ahead. from one total serving of fruits and veggies try new one a day with nature s medley. (vo) and you may lose weight. in the same one-year study, adults lost on average up to 12 pounds. oh! up to 12 pounds? (vo) a two-year study showed that ozempic® does not increase the risk of major cardiovascular events like heart attack, stroke, or death. oh! no increased risk? ozempic®! ozempic® should not be the first medicine for treating diabetes, or for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. do not share needles or pens. don t reuse needles. do not take ozempic® if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to ozempic®. stop taking ozempic® and get medical help right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, itching, rash, or trouble breathing. serious side effects may happen, including pancreatitis. tell your doctor if you have diabetic retinopathy or vision changes. taking ozempic® with a sulfonylurea or insulin may increase the risk for low blood sugar. common side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, and constipation. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. i discovered the potential with ozempic®. oh! oh! oh! ozempic®! (vo) ask your healthcare provider if ozempic® is right for you. sean: a lot of back-and-forth today about robert mueller wanting to interview president trump. here with the very latest from the white house is our own kristin fisher, what s going on? four months one of the biggest questions has been well president trump agree to sit down with special counsel to we know that he has wanted to but that his legal team has been advising him against it and out tonight there is even more reason for his legal team to advise him against it because robert mueller is refusing to accept one of their key demands, to limit questioning during their face-to-face interview to matters of collusion. mueller wants to open it up to obstruction of justice among some other topics. earlier in the day the president described the ongoing investigation as in terrible situation and attorney general of jeff sessions should stop this rigged witch hunt right no now. democrats like adam schiff say the statement was an attempt to obstruct justice hiding in plain sight but the white house says that the president wasn t ordering his attorney general to do anything. the president is stating his opinion. he stating it clearly and he is certainly expressing the frustration that he has with the level of corruption that we have seen from people like jim comey, peter strzok, andrew mccabe. the president s personal attorney rudy giuliani is telling fox news that his inclination is still to say no to an interview but that president trump wants him to continue talking to the special counsel, so tonight the negotiations about this potential interview with a special counsel continue. sean: thank you. joining us now with reaction, former u.s. attorney for the district of columbia, joe. a quick note, he has done legal work for me. he showed up at my christmas party and he drank way too much. and i paid for the drinks. anyway, good to see you, my friend. i am very skeptical of any, any concession to this team of prosecutors that robert mueller has put together looking at what judge ellis said about what they re really doing in the manafort case. i don t trust them. there s no question that the mueller investigation is illegitimate in the sense that rod rosenstein should have never appointed mueller, who had a conflict of interest. he was interviewed for the fbi director and the next day he was appointed special counsel. brad rosenstein is either a witness or a coconspirator in the case if there is an obstruction because of the firing of james comey. rosenstein should have never made the appointment. he shouldn t be involved. he approved one of the fisa warrants and more to come on that in the next few weeks, by the way, but here s the point. if the president should not be interviewed by these people, his attorneys should obviously, and i know they will do everything they can to advise him not to do an interview. this is an illegitimate investigation. it s a perjury trap even though the president cannot be indicted for anything. the problem is this is an effort to use the grand jury process for impeachment purposes. that is an unconstitutional use for the grand jury and they should fight it. if the president refuses to testify and if bob mueller issues a subpoena, the president will win the supreme court. it s unacceptable to allow the president to waste his time and to play into this phony game that mueller is playing. it s outrageous. sean: under any circumstances the president has very good attorneys. we are both mutual friends of jay. flood is a rock star. we know what rudy giuliani is as a lawyer, what he was like as a prosecutor. he took down some of the toughest people in new york in the southern district of new york. the question as i agree it s illegitimate. look at manafort. would paul manafort be on trial today if he didn t work for trump for 100 days on a 2005 tax case nothing to do with russia? why isn t hillary indicted by this time when we know she committed numerous felonies? one of the great lessons from this entire affair is that there were two standards of justice no in the united states and they are both being applied by the fbi and the doj. if you are a democrat you get a pass. if you are a republican you don t. sean: do we have to accept that? i never thought i would hear myself say those words but i have never been more disgusted with my alma mater at the department of justice under rod rosenstein and the fbi under chris wray, two incompetent empty suits who care about one thing, their own future, their next job and what they have done to put this country through. brad rosenstein has put this country through over the last 18 months, may he rot in for it. and what you just said, that they can sit there there s no reason to open the hillary case as jeff sessions has said is absolutely ludicrous and incompetent. sean: you have set on this program that before. if you ve used the term dirty cop. i have this instinctive recoil for one reason. i had a family full of cops and my mom was a prison guard and my dad was a family court probation guy. two people were in the fbi. this does not rank and file. this is a dangerous chapter in our history. the street guys and gals are great, the rot is from the head of the fish in doj and fbi. sean: joe, thank you. when we come back, the king of talk radio, rush limbaugh this very day literally started radio syndication on the airwaves. a mini monologue coming up and i want to explain what would life has been like for this country without rush on the air for 30 years? we will explain straight ahead. - i love my grandma. - anncr: as you grow older, your brain naturally begins to change which may cause trouble with recall. - learning from him is great. when i can keep up! - anncr: thankfully, prevagen helps your brain and improves memory. - dad s got all the answers. - anncr: prevagen is now the number-one-selling brain health supplement in drug stores nationwide. - she outsmarts me every single time. - checkmate! you wanna play again? - anncr: prevagen. healthier brain. better life. hey, the rain stopped. -a bad day on the road still beats a good one off it. -tell me about that dental procedure again! -i can still taste it in my mouth! -progressive helps keep you out there. sean: 30 years ago today americans had few options for political commentary, the news of the day. journalism was decidedly one-sided. network news along with the print media, they were the kings of all information in america. that all changed 30 years ago this day, 1988. it changed forever. a man from a small town called cape girardeau missouri kicked off a brand-new national radio program. it gave a voice to the millions of conservatives in this country that have been ignored, impugned, their values diminished for so long. in doing so he started what would now become a new media revolution in this country, one that radically would permanently alter the media landscape in america and, by the way, paved the way for people like me, laura ingraham, mark levin and so many others. tonight we are celebrating 30 years of the rush limbaugh show. the pioneer of conservative talk radio. that s tonight s mini monologue. 30 years ago today, august 1st 1988 the rush limbaugh show kicked off nationally on 56 radio stations around the country. the show was radically different from anything else on the airwaves at the time. now for decades all americans we were force-fed. we got our information, commentary, news, from the decidedly one-sided left-wing leaning traditional mainstream media. but with a very clear, funny, fun, refreshing informative conservative perspective rush build a desperately needed void in the country and gave voice to millions of us. he is syndicated nationally on more than 600 of america s best radio stations heard by more than 27 million people every week. and as it turns out, time flies when you re a kind of spearheading an entire movement and an entire new genre of media. take a look. they said what are you best at? and i said probably being on the radio. well, there s your answer. do what you are best at and you will at least be happy regardless of how well you do it so i decided to give radio one more chance. i m sure you all felt like you weren t going to ever amount to anything, i felt that way. the only difference between you and me is that i m up here and you are out there. and the only reason i m up here is because you are out there. you have rejuvenated my life and you have made me something i never even thought i could be and i have just one thing to say to you, and a sincere and heartfelt thank you. sean: media was forever changed. here s the question i want to throw out tonight. what would america be like without rush, without talk radio? without rush on the air for the last 30 years. without a doubt he has now had a massive impact decade after decade, year in and year out. the doctor of democracy is the single most influential voice in the early 90s holding the corrupt clintons accountable, playing a vital role in the historic republican midterm resurgence. newt gingrich coming to power 1994. he pushed for america s tough response after 3,000 of our fellow americans were slaughtered on 9/11 2001. he was a leading voice for the tea party move me in 2010. he was one of the only people that were warning against obama s radical left-wing ideology, greatly predicting that those policies would fail. recently he has been a steadfast powerful voice for what is the working trump agenda, the conservative agenda and you see the dividends every day. take a look. donald trump is like anybody else would be. he won the presidency. he won the presidency against all odds. he resents deeply this idea that anybody helped him, particularly the russians. you people in the media are nuts if you think donald trump is going to go along with us. that s not who he has. republicans and democrats, but it s basically people who are pro-government, pro-washington who think government in washington is the center of the world. they will give occasional mentions of these things that you mentioned, these policies to placate voters, but going back to an original question you have here. they don t want trump to succee succeed. sean: on today the 30th anniversary of his syndication he got a call from a pretty special surprise guest. let s listen in. rush, i just wanted to congratulate you on 30 years. this is your favorite president and i think you are fantastic and i heard about it and today is the big day. 30 years. i wanted to call personally and congratulate you. i am floored. i thought there was nothing anybody could do to surprise me today. i ve been preparing for anythin anything. mr. president you are a very special man and you have people that love you. i m one of them. but you are a very, very special guy. what you do for this country, people have no idea how important your voices. so i just wanted to personally make this one and i said i will even dial the number myself if i have to, but i just want to congratulate you, 30 years in that tough business is incredible. and you are stronger now than ever before. i thank you so much. it is such a thrill to hear from you. sean: my friend also referred to russia as the babe ruth of talk radio. he was right. after his call with rush today to present also brought up how often i call him the dean of talk radio. watch this. people don t realize what a great achievement 30 years is in that cutthroat business you happen to be in. you may not find that because you are what make so good at what you do but as a cutthroat business and for you to do this for 30 years is truly an amazing accomplishment and there s no voice like it and even your friend hannity agrees with that. he said there s nobody like this man, so i said i guess i thought you two would be competitive. he said no, he s the dean. he called you the dean. guest host. he guest hosted for me when he first started. he s great and he s a tremendous fan of yours. they all are, everybody is. so i just want to congratulate you, 30 years just do it for another 30 years. after that you can take it easy. i will do that. i will stay along as long as you do. you have a deal. sean: that s a pretty good deal. but it is a competitive business but people like myself, the great one mark levin, laura ingraham and most people that work in talk radio, we all understand that he forged the path for all of us. here s the big question. i personally you think back the last 30 years, think about america today without rush s voice, that booming conservative voice for 30 years. his unwavering commitment to conservative ideology, philosophy, frankly his wonderful warm sense of humor, his outrageous humor, his steadfast love of country. he has literally given this country insightful commentary decade after decade and it has changed the media landscape in this country forever. he led the way forging a path. like earlier pioneers, like terry williams and bob grant, all these guys some outrageous controversial, some not. we get to do what we do today because he single-handedly opened up a whole new market place. he had the courage of his convictions. he paved the way for a new media in a political revolution and the fact for example you are watching me right now is in part because of these great pioneers, courageously forging that path. the audacity to stand up versus the status quo. he took a lot of heat. he stood for honest conservative great american values. they have tried again and again to take him down and they take it just like they try to take mark, lawyer, me down whenever they can. but here they are, we are blessed and we are better off as a country. the media has some diversity because of his life s work. so rush, on behalf of me, mark, laura, conservatives everywhere, millions of us, thank you. congratulations. 30 great years of broadcast excellence. when we come back, rush limbaugh s brother, author attorney friend david limbaugh and he has done legal work for me and went to a party with me. good grief, i have to say that every time. straight ahead. man: (on tablet) preparing classic campfire trout. say what? trout. trout. alright. you don t think i need both? why does he have that axe? make summer go right with ford, america s best-selling brand. now get 0% financing for 72 months plus $1,000 ford credit bonus cash on a great selection of suvs. during the ford summer sales event, get our best offer of the season: 0% financing for 72 months plus $1,000 ford credit bonus cash. liberal media monolith. i think what he did is validated millions of conservatives who are sitting out in america listening to the radio and the tv shows and never having their opinions articulated and they were so frustrated wondering are they odd? they talk to people at the store, people in their walk of life for the same as they are but they don t hear any of these ideas being articulated in the national media. finally rush broke through and gave them a voice. and you mentioned you asked how america would have been different had he not burst on the scene. i shudder to think what would have happened by now with the avalanche of media liberal propaganda in the universities are in the culture. rush has answered it back and he s given the voice to the rest of it. sean: you would know more than i would, it had to be hard at times because i see it anyone in this business now, me, laura, mark, rush. there is an industry or millions of dollars are being spent monitoring all of us in the hopes that we say one word, one phrase, one sentence to get us fired and attack our advertisers, get us off the air. whatever happened to the left believing in freedom of speech and expression of thought? is it that they are that intimidated? they don t believe in it. they haven t ever believed in i it. and they mouth these ideas about tolerance and wanting us to get along and kumbaya harmony but the truth is when they hear someone disagreeing with them, especially someone articulate and popular and have a sense of humor it has the audacity in a national medium, they couldn t take it so they wanted to shut him down. they fund these organizations dedicated to destroying him and making things up about him. sean: millions. now the same kinds of outlets have gone after you. sean: millions of dollars. they make things up, they exaggerate, they take things out of context and he has had to single-handedly fight back these people as he has paved the way for thousands, literally thousands of other people who have been generated from his example. you are one of them, as you have said, and he has shown the way, but in the beginning it was lonely. he was out there and he was on talk radio and no one was there to defend him, no one was there to fund his defense of himself, but he has truly inspired so many people to speak up and to get in his medium and it s really been a wonderful thing. sean: interesting side note. thank you for joining us. when he started in 88 there were like 200 talk radio stations in the country. now there are thousands and it s the number one format in radio. amazing. thanks for being with us. joining us now, more reaction to our other top stories, mueller s which are in. the new york times, i feel sorry for judge jeanine because i m friends with you and last week she was number one on the new york times best seller list. this week it s you and she is two. the russia hopes, the illicit scheme to clear hillary clinton and blame donald trump. many congratulations. sara carter. let s go to the manafort trial today and you are both following it very closely, which wouldn t be happening. it has to do with russia if this poor guy didn t work for trump for 100 days. it was not a good day for prosecutors. once again they were verbally spanked by the judge. and it just shows how devious and malevolent mueller s prosecutors are trying to smear and convict paul manafort simply because he s wealthy. the judge would have none of it. he told them not in my court. if not a crime to be rich. so they switched tactics and guilt by association because he did business with what they referred to as oligarchs and the judge stopped them and said you can t use that term in my courtroom. that connotes and condors of criminality and corruption, but the biggest surprise today is the prosecutors indicated they are not going to call manafort s partner to the witness stand, rick gates, the star witness, the snitch who they now realize will be pilloried as a liar and a crook and an embezzler and bribed by the government for leniency. sean: this is the amazing thing. can t now be the witness. it seems like the prosecution is synced but they gave him a deal. this is what i was bringing up with greg and you guys last night. if you are going to give sammy 19 murders, no jail time at a house in arizona, i think you will say anything they want you to say. i don t trust anybody that gets a deal. i don t trust anybody. that s right and that s why alice was saying you want him to compose you want him to come up with something, some kind of story that you can use against the president and that s not what we do here. and that s why he slammed them hard today. the prosecution. and you know something else, something that came up today that i think is really significant. we ve already seen a year of exposing the department of justice and the fbi, those high-level officials. we ve seen a culture of corruption there and mueller now wants to question the president. on obstruction. sean: sure they allow that? absolutely not. and let me say something else. if he wants to question the president on obstruction he should also question rod rosenstein, who by the way wrote the letters to have comey fired. sean: last word because we are running out of time. why would he ever sit down? it s an illegitimate investigation. it s a total perjury trap and mueller is not really authorized to question a president exercising his constitutional authority. that s forbidden. sean: congrats, greg again on the number one book. sarah is writing a book we will tell you about soon. when we come back, tonight vice president pence receiving the remains of u.s. service members from the korean war. the president made that agreement in singapore. let s fly, let s fly away just say the words and we ll beat the birds down to acapulco bay it s perfect for a flying honeymoon they say come fly with me let s fly, let s fly away come fly with me let s fly, let s fly away -we re in a small room. what?! -welcome. -[ gasps ] a bigger room?! -how many of you use car insurance? -oh. -well, what if i showed you this? -[ laughing ] ho-ho-ho! -wow. -it s a computer. -we compare rates to help you get the price and coverage that s right for you. -that s amazing! the only thing that would make this better is if my mom were here. what?! an unexpected ending! new laptop with 24/7 tech support. yep, thanks guys. i think he might need some support. yes start them off right. with the school supplies they need at low prices all summer long. save $200 on this dell laptop at office depot officemax. sean: vice president mike pence was at joint base pearl harbor to receive what we believed to be the remains of american service members killed during the korean war. the remains were returned as part of that historic agreement, last month between the president and the north korean leader, kim jong un. here is some of what the vice president had to say. we are gathered here at this honorable carrie ceremony to receive 55 flag-draped cases, which we trust include the remains of american heroes that fell in the korean war. some have called the korean war the forgotten war. but today, we prove these heroes were never forgotten. today, our boys are coming home.
Laura Ingraham shines a spotlight on everyday Americans and examines how their lives are affected by politics at the federal, state and local level. midterms. that is the focus of tonight s angle. now you probably heard this, traditionally, parties in power loses seats in the midterm elections. according to the latest quinnipiac poll, there are some troubling signs for republicans. but all is not lost. check this out. you have to understand what is at stake, among independents, a group that trump won by four points, republicans face a 17-point deficit as of now versus the democrats. among white women, a group trump won by nine points in 2016, they are now preferring democratic candidates by a 14-point margin. among voters, 65 and older, they prefer dems by a 14-point margin. look, there is no doubt that the left is energized and they are craving for power. but if the democratic party gains majority, either house of congress, they will try to turn? let s remember, should nancy pelosi repossess the speaker s gavel, you can bet that she will mier the country in endless investigations of the trump administration, and plunge us into a daily impeachment drama. no doubt about it. tonight, i have four recommendations to keep all of this from happening. number one: the republicans should be out, day in and day out, selling the trump economy. go across your districts and remind people that for his administration, its promises made, promises kept. the republican congress helped him along the way. the president promise peace and prosperity and that is what he delivered. he promised to hold china accountable, make nato countries pay their fair share. renegotiate nafta. and that is what he is doing. republicans promised to cut taxes and rollback onerous job killing regulations. and they did that, too. now this is why the democrats keep talking about other issues, talking about things like mueller or michael cohen, michael avenatti, stormy. by the democrats do that? because they have zero answers. to trump s success. they have no alternative except to go to the tangential, unimportant issues. now the president, because he gets out or tell a story, he understands the value of touting the economy as he did tonight in florida. we are setting records like never before, since the election, we have added 3.7 million new jobs. we are in the longest positive job growth streak in history. the african-american unemployment rate has reached the lowest level in history! history! sorry about this, women. but the unemployment rate has elections and republicans grip? educate voters on what the democrats have become. the democrats, let s face it, have gone totally nuts. then i want to abolish i.c.e. they believe people should not be able to use things like normal gender pronouns, that is offensive to democrats. they prefer that i guess we go to war with russia rather than supporting trump s diplomatic overtures to russia. they want to sanctuary cities from sea to shining sea. one guy even wrote a column, a democrat, about how we should have no borders at all. at least they are honest. they have a world where where illegal immigrants are protected while our citizens become an afterthought. so on the campaign trail, emphasize how the democrats are on the margins. they are the fringe. they are the radicals. they threaten individual libert liberty. this is the party now of regulation and speech codes. it s a party that is intolerant of any view but their own. they want to turn our entire trump was having that fun tonight and telling those stories. i was shaking hands with policeman in new york city and the first one came up to me and said, mr. president, i want to thank you so much. i said, what did i do? he said, my 401(k) is up 44% and to my wife thinks i am for the first time a financial genius. she is giving him all the credi credit. she said, darling, i love you so much. and he said, yes, i am great financial wizard. laura: the audience is laughing and having fun. that is what politics is all about. making people s lives better. connecting with the electorate. personalizing the narrative. that is with the president did tonight. he is out explaining why his policies are working. highlighting the results and the benefits for particular reasons of the country. i hope he goes to places, by the way, that he lost in the general election, or the vote was kind of close. don t be deterred by the protesters or their resistance mentality from traveling to places like california, illinois, colorado, and go back to wisconsin, go to michigan. to win over independent voters, and even some democrats, the president and the republicans have to take the wind out of the resistance s sales. this is best done by focusing on your results and offering more solutions without the histrionics or the side issues that will just be used to caricature you later on. and finally, if the president wants to do something in congress before the midterms, hey, i would push for a middle-class tax cuts. i know they are considering another capital gains tax cut but how about another middle-class tax cuts? make what you already passed, and is working, permanent, and expand the cuts you have in place. that puts the democrats totally on the defensive and on the that would happen. as a political strategy i m talking about winning at november to prevent the impeachment of this president dash i think it is really risky. it s really risky. why is it really risky? because with suburban women, with the independent voters, that is not really where they are. results matter. making their lives better matters. and with the president on the wall 100%, but if you will takeg down the government, the time to do that, that was last march when the whole omnibus spending bill debate was going on. right? that was in the president had the good instinct, it was in the morning he voted on it, the good instinct to veto it. the republicans made him change his mind had not come he didn t veto it. that was a time to take the sand. now it is too close to the election, the midterm election. it would also convey a sense of chaos. that is not with those independent voters want to see. they want a happy warrior president. they want the economic success is touted. they want to know who the democrats really are. they wanted steady as she goes. mr. president, keep the focus on the economy, like you did tonight, and your party cannot lose. remind voters that without a g.o.p. congress, your booming economy isn t sure to unravel. and then when it does unravel, it is going to give way to daily impeachment warfare on capitol hill. as for you republicans, who still don t really fully embrace the president s record, i have to say this, frankly, you don t deserve to win. for the rest of you, make these midterms just the start of something phenomenal. and that the angle. joining me now for reaction as john summers, a democrat and former communication director fy leader harry reid, and dan bongino, and every tv contributor and author of the forthcoming book, spygate: the attempted sabotage of donald j. trump. great to see both of you. all right, john, take it away. where do you think i went wrong with my four steps to holding the house and senate and on boarding impeachment? speaker you had a lot of stuff in there. you also had some stuff that i don t disagree with. i think when we talk about with the president needs to do, first of all, he s got to improve his approval rating. they are abysmal right now. his approval ratings are currently lower than richard nixon s work at this point in his presidency. he s got to take some steps to improve his approval rating. i would love to see the happy warrior tweet overnight. it would be a welcome change, i think laura: he was having fun tonight, jon. did you watch the rally? that he was having a great time. he was having a great time in front of his base. but the base isn t what he s going to need to enact. it s great he s got i believe 88% approval rating among his base but that won t win over as you are saying, independence and other people. what he s got to do is go back, and republicans need to do this, and democrats need to do it, we all need to be focusing on the people who the hardworking families, who elected trump into office. a notice where he has lost sigh. one way he can do that is to provide farmers relief from this terrible trade war that he started. laura: terrible trade war that s working. republican members of congress are begging for relief. laura: of course they are. they are used to big money from big lobbying organizations that want to keep the globalist going. dan bongino. the end, you know the drill. these were some of their predictions for the november elections coming up that we ve been hearing on tv from the usual suspects. let s watch. you see the makings of a democratic majority. figure the democrats have to win 21 seats to take control. i think it is a better than even chance at this point that it s going to happen. there is definitely a blue wave coming and we ve got to get ready for it and stop lying to ourselves. you are plugged into a lot of republicans. were they releasing behind-the-scenes? speaker they are saying, get off the beach. laura: okay, dan. first of all, most of those people hate trim, were wrong about the election in 2016, but now they are giving out the advice. your reaction? laura, these are the same people who printed in the washington post that trump had approximately a 0% chance of winning. that was an actual headline. one of the bylines. why would you write something so absurd? he obviously didn t have a 0% chance of winning. he speaks more to your animosity toward the person then i does your political acumen. now i just want to address something john says. i am always kind of weirded out by this, when people say trump s should focus more on the middle class when he just was responsible largely for tax cut that has filtered down to the middle class and now we are seeing the numbers. i get this a lot when i debate with democrats. they try to prod you with emotion, but they lose all of the facts and data. we just had the employment cost index. 2.8%. barack obama hovered around 2.2 present this entire time! he s at 2.8! trump is only been in office two years! we ve just seen an explosive growth, even an income tax revenue toward the government. we ve seen 4.1% gdp! recovering from eight disastrous years of barack obama. i think the middle class gets donald trump and i think, jon, i respect your analysis, i think you are way off there. if anybody sent up with the middle class, it it is trump. it s bigger approval rating would be way higher. but it s not. the middle-class tax cuts that you are talking about, yeah, some of them do trickle down to the middle class mother majority of those tax cuts actually benefit laura: those of the people to take pay all the gases, jon. the billion-dollar tax cut is pushing for today for rich people. laura: for everyone who has investments. how many people are invested in the stock market? if you are smart, if you are interested in in the stock mar. it s important for the republicans to take the high road. i would go for a middle-class tax cuts. you agree with me, dan bongino? i would push even further for those families under $100,000 income with three or four kids. i would cut them further. let the democrats be told that. they would support the middle-class tax cut, not another tax cut that would laura: a win-won for the country. i would like to see a five or six percentage point cut in the metal brackets that would affect would affect middle-class married families, no doubt about it. notice that jon spins it again. they do this all the time. they say, it will trickle down to the middle class. no, the middle class got an actual tax cuts. i know if you are i don t know if you are unfamiliar with how the tax cut works. maybe you should take check the data. laura: we are out of time. i will say this. the president gets about 55% approval on the economy. we ll see. a lot more to get to. ron desantis up next. big rally tonight. what happened behind-the-scenes? will tell you. don t go away. at bayer, our roots run deep. so chances are, you ve seen us around the house. or. around the yard. on the shelf. or even. out in the field. your mom knew she could always count on us. and your grandma did too. because for over 150 years, we ve been right by your side. advancing the health of the people, plants and pets you love. so, from all of us at bayer. thank you for trusting in us. then. and now. laura: president trump headline a wild rally in tampa, florida, this evening. a lot of my friends were there. making a push for his agenda and throwing his support, full throated support, behind florida congressman ron desantis gubernatorial bid. we are restoring american strength and american pride. this may be, in fact it probably is, the greatest movement in the history of our country. but you keep it going, we need to elect more republicans. we need more votes. and we need to elect ron desantis as your governor. laura: you wonder how you get chosen to sit behind the president? i want to know. [laughs] joining us now with more as congressman ron desantis. what an amazing night, congressman. i know you were on cloud nine because somehow, last month, when i was down there, you were down 15 points, and now you are up 12 points. again, poles can change. i m not saying we are not getting too confident here. but that is like a 27-point spring. what could possibly account for that, congressman? look, we had the president has been behind me but was more public toward the end of june. we had a big debate on fox news, which showed the distinctions between the two candidates, which was very important, not just the fact that i am supported by president trump in my opponent was fighting trump during the election, but also on some of these substantive issues that you and i have discussed, things like e-verify, being tough on illegal immigration come a big distinction there. but tonight, i think was just taking it to another level. laura, that whole arena was filled with people. there were thousands of people waiting outside that couldn t get in. there was a lot of electricity. those folks are fired up, ready to go, and florida is going to i think we will do well in florida and the midterms this year. laura: a lot of people are talking about, because of the horrible natural disaster in puerto rico, and a lot of people are moving into florida from puerto rico, a horrible situation. they have failed to personally deal with registering to vote, some of them weren t, they were going to a registered democrat. do you have a strategy for dealing with that because i understand that the democrats are moving on that front? obviously moving past the primary. visiting congresswoman from puerto rico has endorsed me. she s a republican. jennifer gonzalez. she s a good friend. that community in central florida is receptive to pro-jobs, promote economic growth, pro-education message. so we can do it. governor rick scott, his approval rating amongst that community in central florida is, like, 70% because he s worked very hard. he managed the hurricane, aftermath as well, and the maria aftermath, when you had folks that were leaving part of regular come to florida. we need to compete everywhere. laura: you just came out with an ad that you are getting some flack for. a lot of us think it s pretty adorable. we have to play it. let s watch. ron loves playing with the kids. build the wall. he reads stories. it s bigger than mr. trump said, you re fired. i love that part for you he s teaching madison to talk. make america great again. people say ron is all trump but he is so much more. bigly. so good. laura: some people don t have any sense of humor. what is your reaction tonight to that ad? some people think it s kind of goofy. i have already endorsed you, full disclosure. i d discourse to five years ago when you weren t announced yet. but what about that? the response has been overwhelmingly positive because in this business, you have to be able to take a step back, poke fun at yourself, have fun at this, and part of what makes me i think effective is that i have a wife that is my best friend and best supporter, we have a family, that is very important to both of us. we wanted to let voters know about that. we wanted to do it in a way that is not the typical cookie-cutter add to that no one pays attention to. so people who were getting upset about it, they have no sense of humor. i think that some people, it is just, like, the trump derangement syndrome, it sets in so much that they lose the ability to reason and have a laugh at some of the stuff. laura: first of all, i think your wife should run in the future. i m already five steps ahead of you on that. she gave a heck of a speech tonight in the warm up, laura. laura: already heard about it. congressman, congrats. great night tonight. we really appreciate it. the final sprint to the midterms is on with 90 days to go can you believe it a critical question looms. how will bob mueller and the rush of probe impact voters, if at all? there is no sign of it wrapping up but will the surging economies sweep the investigation to the side of the ballot box? joining us now, the polling heroes. frank lance and doug schoen. great to be with you. doug schoen, your reaction, you heard the angle tonight, four pieces of advice as to how to avoid impeachment. as a democrat and a conservative centrist democrat, sort of where she would keep your opinions to yourself. the rant was exactly right. running on the economy, a middle-class tax cut, is the pro-growth message that the republicans need. if they get distracted shutting down the government over immigration, that is the stone cold loser. you asked about this benign investigation, trump s numbers have gone up, the republican numbers have gone up, as this investigation has carried on. i don t think that issue, frankly, is going to be relevant unless and until something demonstrative and definitive happens, which shows no signs of happening before the election. it could change. but as we sit here today, i think the democratic advantage has as much to do with 40 open republican seats, which are either open or retirements, than it does with any groundswell for the party. laura: frank? is a simple question. are you better off today than you were two years ago. so many americans are in the country is. laura: these independent suburban women, you talked about it, you put up the warning flag him i know it is easy for republicans to say, the pollsters were wrong last time, you can discount the pollsters. i think you do that at your own disadvantage this time around because the resistance is so powerful, they are mad that they were along last time i they want to prove themselves right this time. i agree with you 100%. the problem is some of the language is an effective way the words they are using on the way they presenting it doesn t work with women. there is a backlash because of exactly what you said. middle-class, low income, middle america women, republicans are to be much better job. one more thing. i actually think that it s not enough for them to say, you have 4.1% growth rate. nobody understands what that means. laura: personalize the story, correct? personalize it, and two years from now, the speaker nancy pelosi, i think they actually have to use her in the campaign. laura: you undo the gains that you made in the last two years. separate what you don t like about trump s tweets, undo it all. and then how are you doing? there is a new poll avenue, harris neil paul that came out just an hour ago or so, about mueller, going to your point. they believe the bias has spurred trump, the mueller, the way the fbi handled the investigation, and so that he demonstrates again that people don t think this process is fair. i don t think it ultimately has much of an impact in the november elections. i agree with you. i don t think it well. frank s point is an important one and one of the reasons why i think the democrats have a better than 50% chance to win the house. women, suburban, white voters, middle-class voters, on both coats are really reacting to th. laura: when they go to the country clubs, talking about suburban women, country clubs, to hang out, have coffee with their friends, is it that they are embarrassed, they feel embarrassed to say they support trump s results? they want to feel there is a way to support trump because he shows empathy or compassion on n issue? oh, he s good on this. how does he message them? you stay on the tax cuts, job report, everything that is economically based. on the end, that is what matters to more than them. some people will vote based on donald trump. this election, you won or lose based on whether they think they are income level will be better two years from now than it is today. laura: that story and the rally tonight, the 401(k), the firefighter. i want to do a whole hour with you guys. we ll get flack if we do that. thank you so much. the president using force to divide america. why is ruth bader ginsburg s groupies rejoicing? a lot more to get to. raymond arroyo next. if yor crohn s symptoms are holding you back, and your current treatment hasn t worked well enough, it may be time for a change. ask your doctor about entyvio, the only biologic developed and approved just for uc and crohn s. entyvio works at the site of inflammation in the gi tract and is clinically proven to help many patients achieve both symptom relief and remission. infusion and serious allergic reactions can happen during or after treatment. entyvio may increase risk of infection, which can be serious. pml, a rare, serious, potentially fatal brain infection caused by a virus may be possible. this condition has not been reported with entyvio. tell your doctor if you have an infection, experience frequent infections or have flu-like symptoms or sores. liver problems can occur with entyvio. if your uc or crohn s treatment isn t working for you, ask your gastroenterologist about entyvio. entyvio. relief and remission within reach. if you way too often.e moves then you might have a common condition called dry mouth. which can be brought on by many things, like medication and medical conditions. biotène provides immediate, long lasting relief from dry mouth symptoms. it is clinically proven to soothe and moisturize a dry mouth. plus, it freshens breath. biotène. immediate and long lasting dry mouth symptom relief. laura: a supreme court justice refashioned into a pop culture superhero? well, a sports giant claims the president is dividing us. to explain further, in his special tuesday appearance what s going on? let s bring in fox news contributor, new york times best-selling author, raymond arroyo prayed over the weekend, supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg said she would s, she chose five years. why five years on the high court? 85, 86? 85. i noticed something cultural is happening with ruth bader ginsburg. i am out of the children store, a bookstore, and i m going through the rocks, they are not one, not two, not three, but four books about ruth bader ginsburg. i also noticed there are dolls. actual dolls. laura: dolls? and a new documentary that is called rbg. here s the glimpse. i ask no favor for our sex. all i ask of the brethren is that they take their feet off of our next. we welcome today just as ruth bader ginsburg. to become such an icon. would you mind signing this? i m 84 years old and everybody wants to take a picture with me. that is why you are rbg. when you come right down to it, the closest thing to a superhero i know. the closest thing to a superhero. gloria steinem sorry about that. that was truly a slip of the town. many on the left who were upset with ruth bader ginsburg, they that you should have retired when obama was still the president and now they say she is just holding on. i believe she is trying to give them a reason to rally during the midterms. now you have a reason to vote because ruth is going to hang on for another five more years. laura: i understand that people i saw this last night on twitter are offering up their organs, their internal organs, to keep her going. is that true? you see here with the barbells. the woman survived pancreatic cancer. laura: she s amazing. i actually have known her for almost 30 years. you will get another five years. laura: she s a delightful person. we will move on. basketball superstar lebron james just opened a brand-new, state-of-the-art school in his hometown of akron, ohio. during a media tour, he had this to say about the president. listen. this race thing has been taken over, and because i believe our president is trying to divide us. he s using sports to divide us. that is something i can t relate to. dividing us. look, he got to say right off the bat, lebron james, this is cool that he opened it akron is incredible. it s food, its stem and math, it is a fantastic school for at-risk kids. this comment, though, that the president is dividing people with sports, i think that goes too far. the president capitalized on what he saw and amplified it. laura: wise the president dividing people on sports? people kneel at the national anthem colin kaepernick did that. laura: the people in the stands reacted to that. trump spoke about it but the fans didn t like it. how was that the president look, when you are an athlete undo comment on politics, that is fine, you have every right to comment on politics, you are an american citizen. on i expect they re going to be half of the country that disagree with you. when you go to sport games, they just want to enjoy the sports rates because they want their movies, sports, films, free of politics. it should be uniting. lebron stands in stark contrast to this new dallas quarterback, dax prescott. he had this to say about the same controversy. watch this. i never protested during the anthem and i don t think it is a time where the writing to do so. the game of football has always brought me such a piece and it does the same for a lot of people. when you bring such controversy to the stadium, to the game, it takes away from the joy and the love that football brings a lot of people. the love and the peace that football brings. i think he is onto something. laura: i adore him. he s the new tim tebow. i love him. when i go to a game you just want to bond with one another and share with one another on. i don t want to think, he laura: redskins, redskins, redskins. forget the saints. who dat? laura: another celebrity was speaking out about her trip last night, kim kardashian. listen to the way that she handled jimmy kimmel s comment. like nothing bad to say about the president. you still have people on the list. i don t have any laura: she probably has something good to say but she is a parade to because hollywood will descend on her. call or a hater, racist. the president commuted the sentence of the woman laura: hand he just had a fantastic interview. he released her. i think what you are hearing from a kardashians and kanye before her, it is the struggle to come to terms with being fair to the good things the president is doing while disagreeing in the areas where you think he s wrong. laura: everyone can disagree, let s just be a little bit more polite. aren t you kind and sweet in your? laura: good for lebron to open the school. and raymond, we ll see you tomorrow. we just want you to shine in this beautiful studio. it is a pretty studio. laura: a house candidate, by the way, hurling a horrible slur at melania trump, and house majority leader kevin mccarthy wants him banned from twitter. what is that all about? mccarthy joins us exclusively to talk about it next. in a study with ozempic®, a majority of adults lowered their blood sugar and reached an a1c of less than seven and maintained it. oh! under seven? (vo) and you may lose weight. in the same one-year study, adults lost on average up to 12 pounds. oh! up to 12 pounds?

(vo) ask your healthcare provider if ozempic® is right for you. can you imagine if someone said that about michelle obama, what they be doing tonight? now leader mccarthy is calling on twitter to suspend roberts. the congressman joins is now exclusively with more on that and other issues. congressman mccarthy, this is so low, but it s one of the many things the left has said about conservative women over the last few years that have gone on with impunity. no repercussions, no boycotts, they say it, they get away with it, and they are celebrated for it, congressman. exactly right. that is why he saying it. this is inappropriate on any platform to say about a first lady. this first lady, or any other first lady. and twitter is treating people much different way you look what they a a to conservatives. a shadow banned them. when you shadow banned them, everything you put up on twitter is invisible except you ourselves. you know what they did to the rnc chair, ronna mcdaniel? bate shadow banned her. congressman devin nunes, they shatter banned him him. they just said it was a an algorithm. there is not one of the 78 progressive liberal members who ever got shadow banned. going after conservative speech. laura: jack dorsey is a big liberal, who founded twitter. he s a big fan of barack obama. that is fine if he is a big liberal. he even apologized for eating at aaa. chick-fil-a. but here is an individual who said a speech, that in my belief, is hateful. it is not for long on that platform. he should suspend his account. he goes on to even speak more about the first lady, but he bans conservatives. laura: it wasn t he wasn t banned from twitter, correct? i learned about he got suspended. to be when i learned about this because i saw your retweet. not to get you into it. it was a response to something our friend charlie kirk of turning point usa had written. and this freak responds to his tweet and says the letter each word, i don t even know if that is paraded so stupid. something he would read or hear it some kind of lame, gross hip-hop thing. but if he said about michelle obama, what would be happening? this person would be shut down. they would be no opportunity for them to be on twitter again. listen to what he responded to charlie. charlie simply pointed out that our first lady is running a center lienor operation, where there are fewer people working there. he responds this way to her. but what goes farther, this is happening on social media in a lot of different places. remember what it googled her to the republicans in california a week before the primary. they said our philosophy was not nazism. remember what twitter continue to do were to republicans? shutter ban. this is got a step i go into the campaign. how many individuals are setting out there that want to have a communication or talk about a conservatives object get banned or their views are never being seen? but individuals can talk like this and they never got suspended? this is what is wrong. laura: the problem, congressman, when young people do basic searches for information, they do basic searches for capitalism, tax cuts, it is interesting to see what comes up on those searches. invariably, the most left wing, progressive, even socialist views, which are couched in the most beautiful terms, come up first. that is a problem when you have companies that get so big, their market cap is larger than most countries. and they have such an outside influence, it s a problem. is a major problem because we found facebook, prior to the last election, was suppressing conservative views that were go. it s exactly what you are talking about. they are only allowing other views to come forward. that is why they have to have a very clear policy, have to be held accountable. laura: is there anything you can do on the gretchen a level? we brought them in for a hearing. what i fundamentally believe is they have to stop the bias. ever since i came out with us, i have simply did a tweet, one time, of what i found has happen, stop the bias. it even happened to my own mice in the process. i was able to speak up for it. i am getting many people across the social media showing me what has happened to them. they don t have a voice. laura: code, we have to have the evidence. i did my opening angle, congressman, on four ways to avoid impeachment and avoid losses on my terms. i focused on the economy, and the focus has to be on economic growth and how pelosi will reverse the gains that have been made. at the same time, there is concern that we will have a risk of the government shutdown. now president trump said at his rally tonight that he is considering drastic measures if necessary to get the funding for the wall. he campaigned on the wall and congress hasn t delivered on the wall that he campaigned on and i believe the american people want this enforcement done. what is your read on this? what a government shutdown hurt republican chances in november? i think timing is everything. if you shut down in the 30th and you ve got 60 votes in a seven, the democrats would take advantage of that right before the election. let s be very clear, we have put money into the wall, we are currently building it, but we have to finish it. laura: $25 billion, congressman. we have a lot further to go operate in the house, it s not a problem. it s a senate and the rules of where we go. we have to pick the right timing. you are correct when it comes to the economy. think for one moment there s three entities you really want to watch and a selection. women, independence, and seniors. if you watch and you look at from all the democrat open seats, when it was a race between a woman versus a man, a woman won 78% of the time. what happens when this tax cut went through, 1 million new jobs. women in america, the unemployment for women, the lowest point it s been in 65 years. laura: congressman, don t women want things to calm down? women want things calm and peaceful, more happiness. i think trump has to be the happy warrior. he was happier warrior tonight. we want happy warrior trump. he is very charming i think it just makes people happy. we want that. do you agree with me on that or am i overstating it? i agree 100%. people rarely saw the president trump i always see. he is a happy warrior. he s a lot like when you watched ronald reagan, if you believe that his policies bring him more freedom, could liberty, you should be a happy conservative. laura: we know what happens if the democrats get control, it s going to be mired in investigation mania on capitol hill. it s all going to be undone. congressman, thank you for joining us exclusively tonight. we really appreciate it. up next, seven illegal mexican immigrants attempt a brazen robbery in texas but why do the local authorities not tell us about it initially? stay with us. including nasal congestion, which most pills don t. and all from a gentle mist you can barely feel. flonase sensimist. laura: if viewer warning to all of our liberal viewers, you won t like the story because we have yet another example of crimes committed by illegal immigrants. brazen. this time is coming from the border town of mcallen texas. on saturday, masked men is termed a jewelry store in a botched robbery attempt. as you can see, the surveillance video, at least some of the men appeared to be armed. thankfully, authorities quickly took the man into custody. there were no injuries. according to customs and border protection, all seven of the suspects were in the country illegally. what a shocker. a fact that the local police neglected to disclose in their initial statement! joining me in every action, christopher comay spokesman for the national border patrol council. chris, i always find that it s like pulling teeth to get immigration status out of local authorities or reporters who are covering these stories. this was amazing. you have some background information in at least a few of these rappers. tell us. a couple of these individuals that a temper that robbery had been arrested in california in a smash and grab type operation, where i think ten people went into a store in the los angeles area and two of them ended up, t of the previous group. laura: chris, what i think american people get frustrated by is that these people coming to the country illegally, some of them get arrested for crimes, they do sometime, and then they are released into society because california is a sanctuary state. they are released into society, not related porta, some of them are both in and they come back over. they commit yet another crime. they do time here, we pay for three square meals a day, we pay for their incarceration, and then perhaps they ll be deported into mexico. how bad is it right now at the border and what in your mind has to be done immediately to stop this flow across the country? i think we need to be tougher on the prosecutions, tougher on the sentencings, and make it a real deterrent against coming over here. also we need more agents in the area, on the ground, however we managed to do that, it remains to be seen. but it needs to be done because right now, it is wide open out there. the american public deserves security along the border. laura: i have a friend of mine who actually used to work for me years ago, but he works in mcallen, texas, he loves the people of mcallen, but it is in some ways, it is the wild west, as a border town. is that accurate? it denies community, a great community. there are times when there is crime out here, there s a lot of home invasions usually, those are done those are within the drug community, guys fighting against each other. but it s just a matter of time before something breaks off. we have had cross-border violence for some time. unfortunately, the local authorities, whether it is the city or the county municipality, they don t want to admit that we are having over violence from mexico, and it is coming slowly but surely, increasingly has gotten worse, it s just that people are pretending it s not there. laura: the new president of mexico, it s not going to end. there is no more thruway from central america through mexico or mexico into united states. not going to happen anymore. chris, thank you for that insight. it s fascinating. we ll be right back. close at this hour. do not go anywhere. there. bold choice, charlie! just tear, eat. mmmmm. and go! try all of my chicken creations! chicken! so chances are, you ve seen us around the house. or. around the yard. on the shelf. or even. out in the field. your mom knew she could always count on us. and your grandma did too. because for over 150 years, we ve been right by your side. advancing the health of the people, plants and pets you love. so, from all of us at bayer. thank you for trusting in us. then. and now. shannon: by the way, our earlier guest made the point about trump s approval rating, s so low. trump s approval rating is at about 48%. okay? obama had about 46 percent at the same time in his presidency. don t be making those points on the show. there he is. he just got off the plane.
Commentary, newsmaker interviews and panel discussions. the smoking gun against donald trump. watch your fake news media and action from earlier today. child a one from trump s former campaign manager paul manafort. he s facing a slew of charges and this is also the first high-profile test of special counsel robert mueller. for for example mr. mena ford is found guilty, that makes it a real problem for the president of the united states. paul manafort. paul manafort. paul manafort. the campaign is accused of hiding at least $30 million. we will learn the nitty-gritty details about paul manafort s financial situation. did you see what color type paul manafort was wearing? he did not either because he sat with his back to us. there is your media obsessing over a 2005 tax case. up aggressive prosecution from a special counsel who is supposed to be investigating russia, is one more clear example. in the united states of america today, sadly we have a two-tiered system of justice in this country. anyone ever associated with president trump is now under the legal microscope. but hillary clinton, 2016, exoneration before investigatio investigation. they don t interview her until july and we know that she committed crimes. we know the server was hacked by foreign entities. we know she violated the espionage act. secret intelligence, where is that server, where are those emails? why did she destroy classified top secret information. we all know that if any of you out there, if you had deleted subpoenaed emails, as that wash application, sally yates signed off about it, and what about peter strzok and lisa page? that s one against the candidate they love in one against the candidate they hate. we know the fbi director is a liar and he probably should be charged with certain crimes as well. leaking, and this is the sad truth tonight. we have a post constitutional america. we are starting to demand equal justice under the law and we are going to lose our rights and our freedoms as a constitutional republic forever. that s right, this upcoming midterm election, and we ve only just begun to peel back the layers of this deep state. and i can only continue if republicans maintain the minorities house and senate. earlier tonight, while campaigning, gubernatorial candidate ron desantis had this to say about the upcoming elections and so much more. democrats want to raise your taxes. they want to destroy your jobs. they want to crush our industries with crippling regulations. republicans want strong borders and no crime. democrats want open borders which equals massive crime. and on top of that, the democrats, nancy pelosi and the whole group, maxine. they have launched outrageous attacks on our incredible law enforcement officers and on i.c.e. at our border control. the new platform, what they want to do, the democratic party wants to abolish ice i.c.e. in other words they want ms-13 to rule our country and that s not going to happen. in some states democrats are even trying to give illegal immigrants the right to vote. they want to give them the right to vote. if you want safety, if you want borders, if you want to have a country then you need to go out and vote republican. sean: so tonight while president trump slammed rightly democrats, many in the crowd actually called out the abuse by press in the country. in fact many floridians in in e descendants let jim acosta know exactly what they felt about his networks partisan abusive biased coverage. take a look. at the white house has only held three briefings with the press this month, and there is no other way to describe the white house is doing these days. top officials including the president were hiding from the press and we will give you a sense of what s happening right now. you can hear there is a chorus of billing and other chants on the strong crowd here in tailback, florida. they are saying things like this, and we will do that with all of our viewers tonight. sean: they are not wrong, it s not false. i m actually going to give your network some advice, if you have an open mind and an open heart. the people of this country are screaming at you for a reason. they don t like your unfair, abusively biased treatment of the president of the united states. if you want to earn the respect of all americans, not the coastal leeds, california, san francisco and new york, maybe try reporting the entire story and getting rid of the bias. maybe examine why people are saying this to us. in other words, coverage like this from the white house correspondent at cnn, this is why they are doing it. take a look. david, go ahead. is obviously not helpful at times and i know that s plain to see. there were some fears on capitol hill, and that could lead to impeachment proceedings. what is the president s thinking on that and what is your thinking on that? you understand how the law can be different than border security? and that s part of the negotiation that we want congress to have. they may not be in favor in favor. what we are witnessing right now is just this erosion of our freedoms. right now, the president is really sensitive to criticism and he lashes out in this fashion. the last three news conferences, all of the questions to the american news media have been handled by conservative press and i think, there is no other way to describe it, but the fix is in. let me ask you a question. do you believe jim, do you believe speak out they are not always going to be highly skilled. jim, i appreciate your speech. i think we saw the president s true colors today and i m not sure they were red, white and blue. jim acosta, that s called opinion. and you were extremely rude. oh, and a liberal partisan hack, that s why americans don t trust you or fake news cnn. he pretended to be fair, and on and an unbiased journalist but you are not. you are not reporting facts, you are giving an opinion. and it s pretty obvious and the people see it. so instead of doubling down on your antitrust breakage, maybe look inward. maybe find a cure is an income maybe find your inner peace, analyze objectively the overwhelming, nonstop, hysterical coverage against the president. in other words, maybe you will have a better luck getting an interview if you start being a little fair. maybe, just maybe, it will take my advice. we do have a recent study, fox news. that s right, not fake news cnn, which is among the most trusted brands in tv news. so while cnn continues to trust the president hour after hour, minute after minute, day after day, other never trump-ers are getting worse, literally bottom of the barrel. lake is one of the single most vulgar terms to describe the first lady of the united states. imagine the outrage if a republican candidate ever said the same thing about the former first lady, michelle obama. the outrage from these very same people would be nonstop, for the media has largely ignored the story. some republicans are calling for to get her to ban this deranged trumpet hater from their social media platform and we will not hold our breath. 98 short days until these important terms and each night on this program we will do something that your mainstream media will not do. we will actually show you the very worst rhetoric. they will call these republicans racist, sexist, islamophobic, dirty air and dirty water and they want to throw grandma over the cliff and kill children. there s only one way to counter the deranged left wing in this country. if you care about your rights, if you care about this country, if you care about the president s successful agenda, you better get in and go vote in november because the future of the country does depend on it. democrats have their postelection agenda in place. if they win and 98 days you see on the screen what they will do. before we get to our guest tonight, i have to wish a good friend of mine, pete constantino, a happy birthday. he is a friend, a gifted brilliant brain surgeon who has saved the lives of so many including many in our military. happy 50th birthday. joining us now with reaction, fox news contributor sara carter author of the number one book in the country. fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett, let s start with the men paul manafort chat wow trial. we ll rush i get mentioned? no. trump walt, and the trump campaign won t. this is a perfect example of you will be persecuted and prosecuted if you so much as shake hands with donald trump and join however briefly his presidential campaign. if you are friends of hill and bill, you get a sweetheart deal and immunity. james comey abused the position of his office as fbi director to clear hillary clinton in the face of compelling evidence of criminality, in order to clear her path to the presidency. on the very day he cleared her, he launched the investigation of donald trump, meeting secretly with the author of the anti-trumped dossier who is on the payroll of hillary clinton and really that s the thesis. pam watching a 2005 case and they said we don t care about manafort s taxes. so we can prosecute or impeach donald trump. that s the only reason we are here. and i think every american needs to be worried. remember, sean, judge ellis himself said he be begrudgingly move forward with the case because rod rosenstein get so much latitude to special counsel mueller. and let s not forget that andrew weissmann isn t in charge of this case. andrew weissmann who by the way have met with the associated press the day before the associated press wrote that big expose, this was before he joined the men manafort team ad they wrote that big expose on april 12, 2017. and now they are fighting that. you know, wiseman was never removed from this case and should have been investigated because the fbi himself, the people in that meeting with the ap had actually filed a complaint against wiseman. we are seeing a case that in 2014 the government had the opportunity to go after paul manafort. i don t know what he did and you don t know everything that he did, but they decided sean: i have no idea about the ukrainian deals he did. this same wiseman that was running the case, wasn t he excoriated by two judges for holding exculpatory evidence? oh sure. it was overturned unanimously by the supreme court. 9-nothing. did he put four maryland executives in jail for a year? ruin their lives. then they were released because what he had done was wrong. what why would someone hire somebody with that record that was excoriated by judges holding exculpatory evidence? if you want to hire a team of partisans to be unfair and not neutral and to conjure a case out of thin air against him to his innocent, that s what they are doing there. sean: and this is all in your book? it is. prosecutors tried to smear paul manafort simply because he s rich. and the judge stopped them and turned to the jurors and said, it s not a crime to have a lot of money. this is how pernicious these prosecutors are and how unprincipled and unscrupulous they are. sean: i look at this track record of the guy that s leaking this case and i think of what the president says, 13 protestant democrats. isn t one of the hires, not just andrew weissmann, but tell me if i m wrong. did she ever worked for the clinton foundation as a lawyer? yes, and this should not be shocking to people right now because what we have seen over and over again is extraordinary targeting of the president and everyone surrounding the president. these people are doing everything they can to go after him and this is one example of that. sean: between you and greg s book and me, i don t think they like any of us. but keep up the good work. coming up, a warning about mueller s justice system. it should scare all of you. important interviews coming up next. woman: it felt great not having hepatitis c. it s like a load off my shoulders. i was just excited for it to be over. harvoni is a revolutionary treatment for the most common type of chronic hepatitis c. it s been prescribed to more than a quarter million people and is proven to cure up to 99% of patients who have had no prior treatment with 12 weeks. certain patients can be cured with just 8 weeks of harvoni. before starting harvoni your doctor will test to see if you ve ever had hepatitis b which may flare up and cause serious liver problems during and after harvoni treatment. tell your doctor if you ve ever had hepatitis b, a liver transplant, other liver or kidney problems, hiv or any other medical conditions and about all the medicines you take including herbal supplements. taking amiodarone with harvoni can cause a serious slowing of your heart rate. common side effects of harvoni include tiredness, headache and weakness. ready to let go of hep c? ask your hep c specialist about harvoni. sean: that was the president earlier tonight in florida. and he is keeping his agenda with of which russia winch hunt continuing after 480 some days of russia collision. mueller s weaponized system shouldst scare all americans. she is now the number one best-selling author of the new york times. that is the hugest accomplishment for a person that i love, and admire, she fills in on the show and has her own show, layers, leakers and liberals. judge justice jeanine pirro. here s the problem i have. greg s book came out after yours, and he is number on amazon. you are lucky, we love you and we all come on to be on your show. i want to bring people inside the justice system. didn t you know he killed 19 people? he did. if you would testify, i think it was john gotti senior at the time, the teflon dog. they you testify, and, in other words they put the screws to him. if you sing or compose, i don t know what he did because i don t remember the case, we will give you a sweetheart deal. as a judge and as an attorney what do people want to say to get me out of jail? the article today is that u.s. attorneys have a political agenda, and that political agenda will determine whether or not they want to forgive someone who was murdered 19 has murdered 19 people that they can prove beyond a reasonable doubt so they can go after someone else. they are going after mueller, and bernie can talk about this, because they want to squeeze him. sean: why would you want to let someone who killed 19 people make a deal? won t he say whatever you want him to say? when i was at d.a. i would make deals with drug dealers to get after the guy was about that drug dealer. you do it all the time in law enforcement. the credibility is slim. every one of the people in the article i mentioned,: , colin, flynn and manafort are specifically investigative targets specifically because they knew trump. all three, and cohen, who i m pretty disappointed with at this stage, cohen ironically was his attorney and they targeted him intentionally for this reason. that s a purpose behind it targeting attorney. and so you talk about what they did with sammy the bowl, they charged michael flynn with one false statement. and he they said he didn t think he was lying. he had to sell his home, and he said, well we have to go after your kid. i m assuming that happened. so what father won t dive on the sword to kill themselves for their kids? they do that all the time. that s what they do to get people to tweet. they go after your house, your mother, your daughter. we want this guy and in order to get him, everyone they ve ever touched. that s the only way they can prove a crime. and what they are doing in the manafort case, they are bringing in all kinds of evidence to show, he thinks he s above the law. he bought persian rugs and an ostrich jacket. how great was the judge toda today? fico and, those guys know, and because normally that s not the case. normally the federal prosecutors run rogue over these cases and when they do so the judges sit back and let them do what they want. if i m on the jury, and i m listening to the defense asked, did you cut a deal with these guys over here? did they threaten to put you in jail, did they say you are not going to go to jail if you do this? i m dismissing that person because i don t believe that you cut a deal to get out of jail. you are basically thrived and paid. true or false. you are going to do that, yes. and and bribing the witnesses. they are bribing the witnesses to get them to testify but, a lot of times and that s what alan dershowitz said earlier. the export that s false. and, what would you say? that guy, he would confess to sinking the titanic because he wants to get out of jail. when the jury looks at him he says, the prosecutor makes the case. and, that s 98%. it 65-75%. the feds got you by that s not going to make news. why did you say that? my point is when the feds squeeze you, they squeeze you tight. sean: by the way, judge shapiro s book is number one. and you ve been out how many weeks? jesse and jessica. this will get interesting, next. -i ve seen lots of homes helping new customers bundle and save big, but now it s time to find my dream abode. -right away, i could tell his priorities were a little unorthodox. -keep going. stop. a little bit down. stop. back up again. is this adequate sunlight for a komodo dragon? -yeah. -sure, i want that discount on car insurance just for owning a home, but i m not compromising. -you re taking a shower? -water pressure s crucial, scott! it s like they say location, location, koi pond. -they don t say that. so, maybe it s time to upgrade. get more out of your water. get zerowater. earlier tonight, in tampa, florida, touting his economic accomplishments. with the midterms, 98 days away, just because friends are working in overdrive to downplay and discredit this record. this is what the hill yesterday voted. celebrities dive into midterms hoping to thwart trump. here s his reaction. cohost of hit show the five and jessica truman. let s go through really quick, obama, 13 million more on food stamps, 8 million more in poverty and those participation rates since the 70s. lowest home ownership rate in 51 years and mckinley did more debt than any other president combined. trump, 4 million new jobs created, the best labor participation rate that we ve ever had. record low unemployment, 14 states. hispanic americans, and asian-americans, women in the workplace and more jobs and that s the single greatest economy that we have had in ten years. tell me, what s wrong with that, why would he want to go back to your friend obama s record and agenda? because he did better. oh, god. president obama added over 11 million jobs and got the unemployment rate down. 13 million americans who are insured now because of president obama. don t shake your head to come i didn t shake my head. it i m not calling used stupid but the economy is stupi stupid. when obama wasn t charged, it wasn t 1.6 average gdp growth. and what happens during the city union, you guys clapped and nobody was announced. nancy pelosi, the most unpopular politician in america, and then you have trump, a stable genius, she s not at 48%. talk to any pollster, maxine waters is not the face of our party and neither is hillary clinton. who is the face? a lot of different people come up depends on where you are. i could tell you the face of the republican party. i can t. and i have more things to say. we have 4.1 gdp growth, and that s a 789% which is utterly ridiculous. and donald trump already added that up. they are never coming back. i don t know why you are first first migrating someone on two years, and i ve read charlie kirk s tweets where he said that donald trump has accomplished more in two years. it is factually inaccurate. sean: we have 2 minutes left so i already have the winner. is that you would be fair tonight. sean: you have a lot of ground to cover in 2 minutes. i think i m doing a good job. let s talk about solar and wind energy. it went up 369% and there was a decrease in coal jobs. you know what the future will be? flex fields. the future of america will be the world s dominant producer of energy in by the end of the trump administration in six years. if you don t think it will be clean coal? well that s part of the solution, you can make flex fuels out of it. what are you think about the tariff war? you know what i think the good tradewise, trump put america first and so the last. do you work in the soybean field or harley-davidson? it s like when i go to the gym, no pain no gain. i don t go that often but i ve heard people say that. the soybean farmers, not big fans. the people who work at coca-cola, caterpillars workert a trade war or did we get a better deal? we haven t seen the final product there yet. we are moving towards progress. we got a better deal. could we have gotten the deal with the president didn t negotiate? no obviously. it was literally a concession. you can say thank you to president trump. and the president also got the european countries to cover up that cost. aren t you happy that all these manufacturing jobs are back? aren t you happy the economy is doing well? you know what the problem is for your party, every bit of good news is news that comes back to take power. and i don t know how many democrats are the face of the party or not. the president is that brings celebrities to campaign, and you guys would love it if a celebrity wanted to meet you. kanye west sends out one tweet in favor of the press and you guys are riding high. that s a trade that i would definitely you are on a roll. she s supposed to be amazing. you know what? it was a bad day for you. it s jesse s world, he owns it. all right, goodbye. sean: when i come back, the president pardoned alice marie johnson. she was going to spend 20 years in prison, but thanks to president trump, she s here. our incredible story coming up next. has this unique combination of probiotics. it helps replenish good bacteria. get four-in-one symptom defense. gathered here are the world s finest insurance experts. rodney mastermind of discounts like safe driver, paperless. the list goes on. how about a discount for long lists?

i feel this does not seem real. my sister is in the studio with me tonight. sean: hi she is one that ran out and brought the roses to me. the reaction that i m getting from the public every single place that i go if people recognize who i am, they hugged me and tell me how happy on home and how they followed from the day kim went to the white house. there were prayer vigil s going on all over, literally. sean: how hard was that? the weighting had been very painful for me and my family. so many ups and downs, so many false alarms as it was going to happen for years. we have fault and fault and fault. sean: she went to the white house for you, how cool was that? yes, on my birthday. did you realize it was on my birthday. i was watching tv that day and i didn t have any idea what she was about to do. to tweet something out, happy birthday alice marie johnson, today is for you. i m so happy that kim is staying focused because there are so many others just like me who had none violent offenders. sean: how did you get a life sentence over the worst crime ever? that is insane. this system is broken. the president said he s going to do more of it. i was so happy that his heart had been touched to do more. and something else you did that really amazed me, and i talked about that at the time, i loved what you said. i said thank you america, think the president. thank you for giving me the second chance. i will let you down. i won t let him down. there is no way. this country is a country of second chances, and i believe that as the president see is has taken place with me that he is going to follow up and do some other things for other people. people see my face and that s what they need to see. i m just like you, and my family is here with me tonight. how many are here with you? i ve been here ten years, pro bono. sean: amazing, thank you for what you did it. and there is your sister listen, i m so happy and i hope that you see the president and tell him your story so that he can hear that there are other people like you that deserve that chance. just like me. sean: god bless you and it s an honor to you, so glad you are free. thank you for your support. sean: when we come back, some of the highlights from the president s rally in florida, straight ahead. yes start them off right. with the school supplies they need at low prices all summer long. save $200 on this dell laptop at office depot officemax. save $200 on this dell laptop let your perfect drive come together at the lincoln summer invitation sales event. get 0% apr on select 2018 lincoln models plus $1,000 bonus cash. but having usaa- now that s a privilege. we re the baker s and we re usaa members for life. usaa. get your insurance quote today. sean: during tonight s rally, president trump talked about north korea and that disaster is a deal. take a look. speak it we are doing well in north korea, we have our hostags back, as you know. there has been no nuclear tests. there has been no missiles or rockets flying, beautifully, over japan. i think of our relationship is very good with chairman kim, and we ll all see how it all works out because there s nothing like talking. the iran nuclear deal. it s a horror show.

lying, pomposity, smuggness, overall, groupthink. dvr it if you know how that hworks. more than anything though, have a terrific evening. you ve had the main course and now the dessert, the great sean hannity in new york city. sean: i m telling that story. so when you are back in new york with laura, we are all getting in this room and i m telling secrets. i and i m telling secrets about you two. tucker: [laughs] sean: oh, it s coming out. tucker: i m embarrassed already. sean: we are 98 days away from the single most important midterm election in our lifetime. we are 440 days into robert mueller s corrupt political witch hunt, and the trial of paul manafort kicked off in a northern virginia court room. you would think it s the trial of the century, it s not. he s facing potential life in prison or a tax charge that had nothing to do with russia from 2005. today the trial of paul manafort kicked off in what are alleged crimes had nothing to do with president trump or russia or collusion. nothing! instead the prosecution of paul manafort represents yet the latest and another example of team mueller turn the screws on a one-time trump ally in order to extort something, anything, on president trump. in moments we will highlight the sad two-tiered justice system in this country and we will tell you who is going to really be facing charges tonight if we had equal, equal application under the laws and equal justice under the law without political prejudice, and criminalizing political differences. meanwhile, before trump took s e stage, jimmy acosta got a taste of what trump voters really think about cnn fake news. i will give some advice to fake news cnn tonight, and how they can regain the trust that they have lost. watch your fake news media in action from earlier today. trial day one for trump s former campaign manager paul manafort. he s facing a slew of charges this is also the first high-profile test of special counsel robert mueller. if, for example mr. manafort is found guilty, that makes it a real problem for the president of the united states. is there time for him to cut a deal? paul manafort. paul manafort. paul manafort. the president s former campaign chair is accused of hiding at least $30 million. we will learn the nitty-gritty details about paul manafort s financial situation. the jury has just been seated paul manafort. did you see what color tie paul manafort was wearing? he did not either because he sat with his back to us. sean: there is your media obsessing over a 2005 tax case. mr. manafort s bank fraud. you d really care about what information mr. manafort can give you that would reflect on mr. trump or lead to his prosecution or his impeachment or whatever. and judge t.s. ellis goes on to say that mueller wanted to tighten the screws all in an effort to make manafort sing or compose. by the way, compose means, i will make up any story you want to stay out of jail. that s the only reason this trail is happening. now if found guilty, manafort faces, for the 2005 tax case, up to life in prison, over financial related charges. it has nothing to do with russia at all. nothing to do with president trump. i think he worked with the president for less than 100 days. in fact, witnesses have been w instructed to avoid using trump s name altogether. in order to prevent political bias from playing a role with the jury. now without a doubt, metaphoric without a doubt, manafort s aggressive prosecution from our special counsel who is supposed to be investigating russia, russia, russia, is one more clear example, in thef united states of america today, sadly, we have a two tiered system of trust is country. anyone ever associated with president trump is now under the legal microscope. but hillary clinton, 2016, exoneration before investigation. literally, they were writing it in may. they don t interview her until july and three days later she s outt for you. we know she committed crimes. we know the server was hacked by foreign entities. we know she violated the espionage act. mishandled a secret intelligence. where is that a server? where are those emails? why did she destroy classified top secret information? we all know that if any of you out there, if you had deleted subpoenaed emails, acid wash your hard drive with bleach Commentary, newsmaker interviews and panel discussions. off on it. what about peter strzok and lisa page? two investigations, one in favor of the candidate they love, andd one against the candidate they hate. where is andrew mccabe? we know the deputy fbi director is a liar and heth probably shod be charged with certain crimes as well. where is clapper? where is john brennan? leaking the dossier information to people, like, what, he reread? this is the sad truth tonight in america. we have a two tiered justice system. as mark levin says, we live in a post-constitutional america. we better get our country back. we better start demanding equal justice under the law, equal application of our laws, or else we are going to lose our rights and our freedoms, as a constitutional republic forever. that is why this upcoming midterm election in 98 days will be the single most important midterm in our lifetimes. we have only just begun to peel [boos] they launched outrageous attacks on our incredible law enforcement officers and on i.c.e. and our border patrol. can you believe it? people that keep us safe. their new platform, what they want to do, the democratic party, they want to abolish i.c.e. in other words, they want to let ms-13 rule our country. that is not going to happen. in some states, democrats are even trying to give illegal immigrants the right to vote! they want to give them the right to vote! [boos] if you want to safety, if you want borders, if you want to have a country, then you need to go out and vote republican. sean:n: tonight, what president trump slammed, rightly, democrats, many in the crowd actually called out the abusively biased press in this country. in fact, many floridians in attendance led to cnn s jim acosta know exactly what they thought about his networks partisan abusively biased coverage. take a look. the white house has held only three briefings for the press this month, and eight total since the end of may. there is no way to describe with the white house is doing these days, top officials, including the president, are hiding from the press,m and to give you a sense as to what is happening right now, you can hear there is there a chorus of boos and other chants. they are saying things like cnn sucks, go home, and fake news. we are going to stay right here and do our job and report on this rally to all of our viewers tonight. sean: jim, they are not wrong. it s not false. you are probably watching because you don t want your own network. i m going to actually give your network some advice, if you have an open mind, an open heart, may be a little humility. the people of this country, they are screaming at you for a reason. they don t like your unfair, abusively biased treatment of be different than border security. no, actually i don t, jim. there could be more ages, fencing, it doesn t necessarily mean a physical wall. that is part of the negotiation we expect congress to have. democrats are saying they may not be in favor of this kind of deal. they say things, but no thanks. jim, i am not negotiating with you. i will let congress take care of that. what we are witnessing is the erosion of our freedoms and in s of covering the president. there are moments when this president is just really sensitive to criticism, and he lashes out in this fashion. that is just strange and nonpresidential thing to do, to be throwing rolls of paper towel or people. the last three news conferences, well, all of the questions to the american news media have been handled by a conservative press. i think, wolf, there is no way to describe it but the fix is in. the statue of liberty has always been a symbol of hope to the world of q jim, do you believe they are not always going to jim, do you believe jim, jim, i appreciate your speech. we saw the president s true colors today and i am not sure that they were red, white, and blue. sean: not red, white, and blue? jim acosta, that is called opinion. you re extremely rude. oh, and a liberal partisan hack. that is why americans don t trust you or fake news cnn. you pretend to be fair and unbiased journalists. you are not. you are not reporting facts. you are giving your opinion. you are an opinion channel! every minute of every day, every week, 24/7, hate drama. it s pretty obvious. people see it. instead of doubling down on your anti-trumpn rage, maybe look inward. maybe find your zen. maybe find your inner peace. analyze objectively the overwhelming, nonstop, hysterical coverage against the president. in other words, maybe you ll have better luck getting an interview if you start being a little fair. a maybe, just maybe, you ll take my advice. i checked it out at. we do have a recent study, fox news, that s right, this channel, not fake news cnn, is among the most trusted brands in tv news. sadly i doubt cnn will take my advice. while cnn continues to trash the president, hour w after hour, minute afterer minute, day after day, many on the left, other never trappers, engaging in rhetoric that is even worse. literally the bottom of the barrel. now this week on twitter, one congressional candidate from oregon used one of the single most vulgar terms to describe first lady of the united states, imagine the outrage if a republican candidate ever said the same thing about the former first lady, michelle obama. the outrage from these very same people would be nonstop. the media is largely ignored this story. so some republicans are calling for twitter l to ban this derand trump heater from their social media platform. we want to hold our breath. with 98 short days until these brilliant brain surgeon who has saved thee lives of so many, including many in our military. happy 50th birthday, pete. thjoining us now with reaction, fox news contributor sara carter, author of of the numbee book in the country, the russia hoechst: the illicit scheme to frame donald trump unclear hillary clinton, gregg jarrett. we ll rush get good mentor? no, trump campaign won t. this is a perfect example of, you will be persecuted and prosecuted if you so much shake hands with donald trump or join, however briefly, his presidential campaign. if you are friends of hill and bill, you get a sweetheart deal, or immunity and to get out of jail free card. she should have been in jail a long time ago. james comey abuse the position of his office, as fbi director, to clear hillary clinton in the face of compelling evidence of criminality, in order to clear her path to the presidency and on the very day he cleared her, he launched the investigation of donald trump meeting secretly with the author of the anti-trump dossier who was on the payroll of hillary clinton and he was off to the races to destroy trump. really, that is the thesis of the book, the russia hoechst. sean: sara, you broken a lot of stories on this program. i am watching a 2005 case that ateven the judge says, we don t care about manafort s taxes. what you care about is putting the screws to manafort so he sings or a composes, so you can prosecute or impeach donald trump. that is the only reason we are here, and o all these other people, whose corruption you ve exposed, and helped expose with gregg, they are not on trial today. i think every american needs to be worried. remember, sean, judge ellis himself said that he begrudgingly moved forward with this case, only because rod rosenstein gave so much latitude for special counsel mueller. he gave them all this latitude. let s not forget that andrew weissmann is in charge of this case, right? andrew weissmann, who, by the way, had met with the associated press the day before the associated press wrote that b big expose, this is befoe he joined the manafort team, and the associated press wrote that big expose on paul manafort on april 12, 2017, and now they are fighting bad. you know, andrew weissmann was never removed from this case, and should have been investigated because the fbi themselves, the people that were in that meeting with the ap, had actually filed a complaint against andrew weissmann. we are seeing a case, in 2014, 2014, the government had the opportunity to go after paul manafort. i don t know what he did. g you don t know everything he did. they decided sean: i don t know the ukraine deals he did. let me ask gregg, as is the same weissmann wasn t he excoriated by two judges or withholding exculpatory evidence? sure. sean: the same guy that has of thousands of jobs at andersen accounting were lost? overturned unanimously by the supreme court. sean: 9-0? yes. sean: did did any but four merrill executives in jail for a year? ruin their lives, and they were released because what weissmann did was wrong. sean: overturned by the fifth circuit? why would somebody hire somebody without record that has been excoriated by judges for withholding exculpatory evidence? if you want to hire a team of partisans to be unfair and not a neutral and u to conjure a case out of thin air against somebody who is innocent. that is what they are doing here. sean: this is all in your book? it is. this is a perfect example of what happened in court. prosecutors tried to smear paul manafort simply because he s rich. the judge stopped them and turn to the jurors and said, it is nott a crime to have a lot of money. this is how pernicious these prosecutors are, how unprincipled and unscrupulous theyey are. sean: sara, i look up his track record of a guy who is leading this case, and i think of what the president said, 13 partisan democrats. isn t one of them, not just andrew weissmann, jeannie rhee, how many tell me if i m wrong. didif she ever worked for the clinton foundation as a lawyer? yes, sean. this should not be shocking to people right now. what we are seeing over and over again as extraordinary targeting of the presidentr and everyone surrounding the president and these people are doing everything theyy can to go after him and this is one example of that and we ll see other examples in the future. sean: with you, gregg s book, me, i don t think they like any of us. keep up the work for a number one of the country.d coming up, a warning about [ horn honking ] [ engine revving ] what s that, girl?

okay. they gave him a deal. they said, if you testify i think it was against john gotti at the time. ifn you testified, we won t put you in jail for killing 19 people. some say 20. he then gets the government to give him a house in arizona and the witness protection program. in other words, they put the screws to him, if you sing or compose, i don t know what he did, i don t remember the case, we are going to give you a sweetheart deal. you have all these people getting sweetheart deals in that manafort case. here s my question as a judge an attorneys, how often do they offer deals like this, and aren t there many people that will say, what you want me to say, to get me out of jail? there is no question. it speaks to the article that bernie wrote today. that is not u.s. attorneys very often have a political agenda. that political agenda will determine whether orag not they want to forgive someone who has murdered 19 people that they can prove beyond a reasonable doubt, so that they can go after e someone else. they are going after mueller and bernie can talk about this, because they want to squeeze in. they are going after michael cohen sean: fibroid you ever elect somebody who killed 19 people make a deal? isn t going to say whatever you want him to say? when i was a d.a., i would make deals with drug dealers to gett after the guy who was above thatt drug dealer. you do it all the time and law enforcement. sean: but what credibility do they have come a bernie? thee heart of your article. the credibility is no maximu. every one of the people i mentioned in the article, cohen, flynn, and manafort, they are specifically investigated targets, just because they knew trump. just because they were associated with him. sean: all three. and cohen, who i am pretty disappointed with, at this stag stage, cohen ironically was his attorney, and they targeted him intentionally for this reason, to create a conflict, make him a witness, and guarantee that he can no longer talk to trump. that is the purpose between targeting the attorney. you talk about what they did twith senator they charge michael flynn with one false statement. sean: both fbi agents and comey said they didn t think he was lying. he s had to sell his home. they said, we will go after your cat. i m assuming that happened and i will guarantee what happened. what father is not going to dive on the sword to kill themselves for their kid to? they do it all the time. that is what they do to get people to plea. we are going after your son. after your mother, your daughter. we wantr this guy, in order to get him, everyone he s ever touched sean: why would a jury would ever tell mike believe somebody who caught a deal? s book of the prosecutor will say, this is the only way we can prove a crime. we don t even like doing what we do. then the jury says, wait a minute. what they are doing in the manafort case, they are bringing in all kinds of evidence to show he thinks he s above the law. he bought persian rugs and an ostrich jacket. sean: how great was the judge? if you are wealthy, it s not a crime. he s great. a great judge. i give this drudgery a lot of credit. emmet sullivan, the judge in the flynn case, the new judge, these guys know sean: sullivan g said i ll decide what s exculpatory. give me all of it. that s right. that is fortunate for these men. normally, that is not the case. normally, the prosecutors, federal prosecutors, sort of run rogue over these cases and when they do so, the judges sit back and let them do what they want. sean: if i m on the jury, and i am listening to the defense asked, did you cut a deal with those guys over there? did a friend to put you in jail? did they say you are not going to go to jail if you do this? i m dismissing that person. i don t believe you, if you cut a deal to get out of jail, you are basically bribed and paid. true ordodo false? you would do this, yes. but you have people sitting on a jury, and the prosecutor already has them sean: aren t they bribing witnesses? yes! sean: they are bribing witnesses? it s worse than that sometimes. they are bribing the witnesses to get them to testify but a lot of times sean: compose? it is what alan dershowitz said earlier. they extort testimony that is falls out of these people. sean: that is what judge ellis meant when he said sing or compose. what would you like me to say to give me out of jail? it s the same with michael cohen. i sat on my show this weekend, that guy, he ll confess to sinking the titanic because he wants to get out of jail. when the jury looks at him, they will say, the prosecutor makes a good case. they had to do this to get the evidence. otherwise they can t get the bad guy. sean: i don t believe bribery is the only way to get evidence. do you know what the conviction rate is? 97, 98%. sean: 65, 75% around the . the feds got you. sean: that is not going to make news. why did you say that? i want them to know my point is the feds, when they squeeze you, they squeeze you tried. sean: good to see you both. by the way, judge jeanine pirro s book, number one on the new york times. number one. liars, leakers, liberals. in stores everywhere! number one on amazon. you have been out for how many weeks? proud of you. jesse and jessica. well mark. this will get interesting next. straight ahead. it s like a load off my shoulders. i was just excited for it to be over. harvoni is a revolutionary treatment for the most common type of chronic hepatitis c. it s been prescribed to more than a quarter million people and is proven to cure up to 99% of patients who have had no prior treatment with 12 weeks. certain patients can be cured with just 8 weeks of harvoni. before starting harvoni your doctor will test to see if you ve ever had hepatitis b which may flare up and cause serious liver problems during and after harvoni treatment. tell your doctor if you ve ever had hepatitis b, a liver transplant, other liver or kidney problems, hiv or any other medical conditions and about all the medicines you take including herbal supplements. taking amiodarone with harvoni can cause a serious slowing of your heart rate. common side effects of harvoni include tiredness, headache and weakness. ready to let go of hep c?

[cheers and applause] it was a number that everybody said was not reachable and i would never want to say it during the campaign, even though i believed it. we are setting records like never before. since the election, we have added 3.7 million new jobs. they would not have believed me.
