5:00 pm
larry: last words, mr. biden is illegal, incompetent and broken president and must be retired as soon as legally possible. and now legally we must all watch liz macdonald. that's the case. elizabeth: everything will be fine. thank you so much. larry. good to see you. have a good weekend and get right at it and join joining us
5:01 pm
now is forming graham federal prosprosecutor and gene happen l ton and the white house making things worse doing damage control on the president's catastrophically bad press conference a last night and katie yelling at reporters and reporters coming on the white house council and robert herr taking from his report and his assessment of president biden's cognitive decline. what do you think? >> well, i think that the white house want it is both ways. essentially her's -- herr's ken polcari tear is the reason why because there's enough to indict him for wrongful materials and the justification was based again on his lack of mental faculties, which herr suggested would lead to problem securing a
5:02 pm
conviction. that was the bone he threw them and i don't know what they're looking for, but i guess both. elizabeth: what katie said, on top of that, the thing is, gene, he's not allowed his vice president or u.s. senator to have u.s. secrets at all. he was blaming his own staff for keeping u.s. secrets in multiple locations like his basement den, his garage, and open boxes on things like afghanistan and more. we're in a strange world today and it's being prosecuted and essentially the same exactling. thing joe biden has done whenever. they've seen the pictures of the garage and supposely full of classified documents and one of the primary reasons why the
5:03 pm
commercial council can didn't recommend going farred with special prosecution was because of joe biden's mental faculty and if you're in such a bad place and individual that you cannot be prosecuted or a criminal offense and then how in the world are you properly serving and confidently serving as president of the united states. elizabeth: you can see it with the catastrophic press conference last night, katie. you can see the condition of the president and many are asking, even the fact that he called the presser last night from the white house historically unusual is a symptom of mental health problems. watch this. >> in addition, i know there's some attention paid to some language in the report about my recollection of events. there's reference they don't
5:04 pm
remember when my son died. how the hell dare he make that. i take responsibility for not having that. >> mr. biden, one of the things the special counsel said in this report is one of the reasons you were not charged is because you are a well meaning elderly man with a poor memory. >> i'm a well meaning and elderly and i know what the hell i'm doing. >> how good is your memory and can you continue as president? >> my memory is so bad, i let you speak. my momentum reigns leading is fine. >> many american people have been watching and they've expressed concerns about your age and -- >> that is your judgment. that's your judgment. that's not the judgment of the press.
5:05 pm
that's classified information and i did not. elizabeth: doj mentally unfit in trial and not to be president and house lawmakers are saying special council hurricane release the full transcript of your -- hurricane release the full transcript. >> he's fine and his memory is great and americans have own otherwise and in our face for quite some time here and the only reason he's not being indicted according to hur and if we're only to believe the prosecution could be there and not believe the other part of why he can't go to trial and
5:06 pm
we're left without absolutely elizabeth: that means he broke the law, gene. the other thing too is the president continues to mislead america, gene. cnn said he made at least three factual errors last night that were not true. he claimed he kept u.s. secrets under lock and key and he did not. he said, "none was highly classified and that was false and he said he did not share classified secret withs his ghost writer when the special council said yes, he did, gene". >> we're talking about the same man whose press conference to clean it up involved him speaking for the president forced americans in red and green states and opening humanitarian pathways from mexico to gaza. there is a clear problem present. the american people see it. we've all had elderly relatives or friends that have been in this stage of life.
5:07 pm
the fact that joe biden is his allies and his associates are trying to hide all of this from the american people should be a crime in and of itself and this is something that every word is analyzed on the international stage. by the adversaries and allies and everyone in between. the statements is ridiculous and putting all of us at risk. eugene hamilton, reaction pours in from capitol hill and attacking special council robert hur. the vice president today also attacking robert hur. hillary vaughn has more. hillary. reporter: good evening, liz, the special counsel went out of his way to embarrass president biden
5:08 pm
by bringing up his poor memory and that distracted from the ultimatelity matt vindication that the president is not being charged for mishand 8ing classified information. >> they exonerated him and there was an effort that i view is totally political to bury that basic news in completely grady trimble tourtous swipes about age and memory. reporter: there's a problem with how the president handled the aftermath following in report and the last minute with late night press conference might have done more damage. >> i'm a senior democratic politician and i've done it for a long time. that's not i h the way to do it. he was angry and frustrated and didn't go well. there's no doubt about that . reporter: some republicans are saying it's time for the 25th amendment to be on the table but other republicans say that would just put the vice president, kamala harris, in the
5:09 pm
oval office, something they don't think would be any better for the country. >> what we've got to do is make sure this man does not serve a second term. it's not him, it's whoever is running the country, and he's the leader of the free world. he's cog my tivoli not there. reporter: biden's cognitive ability is a headache for the campaign and dean phillips said he has phone has been blowing up from some of his fellow democratic colleagues who admit to him in confidence they're worried. liz. elizabeth: interesting, hillary vaughn, thank you for your great reporting always. joining us is washington examer for byron in new york. you've been watching for a long time and press conferences is where he's making multiple gaffes at confronted white house
5:10 pm
aid why is no one stopping the president? >> historically, the first lady was concerned with how her husband, the president, is presented through the media and whether the white house is effectively managing that. clearly in the biden white house, the president doesn't talk to the press very much that made last night unusual in the first place and it's disastrous and the first lady is expressing concern about this, clearly there's people in washington deputies and republicans that think the first lady should con syringes the president not to run again. certainly the first ladies are always concerned about the quality of the press that her husband is getting. elizabeth: not running again and we'll get into it later and
5:11 pm
politico reporting in 2019 and president biden said maybe i won't do a second term because of my age. the blunders and lawmakers are piling up and the 25th amendment be invoked. >> everybody living in the red or green state and conduct of the response in gaza, in the gaza strip has been over the top. i think that as you know initially the president of mexico didn't want to open up the gate to allow humanitarian
5:12 pm
aid to get in. >> making row v word law of the land. >> i sat down and said america is back, mineron from germany or france looked at me and said whk for. elizabeth: let's go through it. nobody wishes ill on any person and the president of egypt confused with the president of mexico and swies this week and hell man cole dead for two weeks and talked to francois min ran debt for 26 years.
5:13 pm
>> >> does not have the men it will a&physical acuity for the second term. he left office at age 77 and the age that ronald reagan got reelected and bob dol left at 73 years old and tons of commentary about whether he was too old to be president. now we have a president that's 81 years old that's clearly declined and he's declined since he took in january of 2021 and yet democrats are so locked in to position, they're so dug in
5:14 pm
about this that they can't admit they perhaps need another candidate. elizabeth:s come in that president has suffered in the past two brain aneurysms. where do we go from here, byron? >> well, the president is the president and hard for the office to convince him not to run. it's incredibly hard for party to convince its own party to do that and democrat haves tried. elizabeth: byron york, thank you for joining us. good to see you. >> thank you, liz. elizabeth: sure, coming up, have a good weekend, my friend. congressman andy biggs is joining us and national border patrol council brandon judd and former nypd with special council reports is hitting the biden

5:32 pm
reporter: making it more difficult for president biden to get reelected and this report has stark similarities to the report where former president trump faces a slew of charges related to mishandling classified documents in the white house briefing room and special assistant to the president in sam's talked about appearance from the two-tiered system of justice. >> we're careful about not commenting on cases like that and i'd encourage you all to read the report. reporter: president biden quickly complied with everything the department of justice and special counsel wanted and said the former president did not. his diminishes faculties in advancing age and sympathetic demeanor and these factors will likely make it difficult for jurors to conclude he had criminal intent and calls biden a sympathetic, well meaning
5:33 pm
elderly man with a poor memory. >> relating to his age, and it relates to white has been said by -- in this report, it is something that we don't believe lives in reality in the sense of this is a president. i've known this president since 2009. i've known this president. he's not been just my boss but a mentor to me and no one in this building would say that what we saw in this report about his memory. >> the result is 2340 charges for president biden even though the report says that the president willfully retained classified documents. back to you, liz. elizabeth: edward, thank you so much. your great reporting as ever. joining us is joe concha. joe, the media misreporting here and not pushing back on the white house today and the justice department, joe, you've talked about this and the justice department agreed to have biden's own lawyers do the searches for classified documents and not doj officials and special council hur did not exonerate president biden and he
5:34 pm
cited prosecutorial discretion and not criminally charging him because a jury would see the president as mentally unfit. what do you think of the media's performance here? here? >> i think it's wholly predictable, liz, at this point. we're seeing a media that's mostly trying to protect this president at this point. what everybody saw, what we saw yesterday during that press conference 7:45 p.m. eastern time and he morphed into grandpa simpson and confusing the mexican president with the egyptian president and at this point it's panic, liz. that's the exact word i'd use here but in all caps at my point and i get to watch msnbc and being forced to watch clock work orange and on that network, rachel used the defense that joe biden is lucid because he rides a bike and that's the most unintentional comedy out there. my kids would ride a bike by the
5:35 pm
time they were 4 and not sure operating a schwinn proves a person is mentally fit. the president had the worst of his presidency going back to afghanistan and couldn't remember that he spoke to mitterrand and died in 196 and d get napoleon's voice mall and the german chancellor that died years ago and conversation about january 6, okay. the white house communication shop thought it was a good idea to be president given the mental state and talking 28 years old and going in colorado and
5:36 pm
showing the viewer for politico reporting in 2019 and going for my age and biden was going with his age and serving and couldn't serve two terms and according to to people that regularly talk to biden and the thing s joe, you point out and democrats and the president's media defenders were out in force trying to tear down special council hur for his report detailing the president's cognitive issues and he's telling me the mean people the analysis of the media reaction, watch. these words and useful political
5:37 pm
attack for that and going with the world to put that in the report and his meteorological assessment of joe biden and merrick garland and like that in the justice department reporting. going for the alternative. the other guys that really are damaging dangerous threats and going to push back on the idea and mixing up world leaders that are been. elizabeth: msnbc reading the special counsel report and
5:38 pm
special counsel hur said he had to go into tiktok and the cognitive decline issues and he felt he couldn't charge him, criminally charge him because the jury wouldn't reach a conclusion because of this mental decline. what do you think? the bottom line is hur had to include this and robert hur in his report and while they interviewed him and mainly in the year and that was relevant and he would have been charged but we've got to go. elizabeth: joe concha, appreciate you. have a good weekend. welcome brandon judicial crisisd officer and bill, first to you.
5:39 pm
and then going soft on criminal suspects accused of murder, robbery, sexual assault and drug charges. da bragg going after trump. what do you think? >> i think time and time again, liz, thank you for having by the way and when you have a da based on color and more importantly the hypocrisy and like the member of the service trying to save people on the train and now we have teenagers getting this.

5:55 pm
5:56 pm
elizabeth: okay, let's welcome congressman andy biggs from house oversight. it's great to have you on, sir is. so your oversight committee led by chairman comer, you guys want to get special counsel robert hur's report on the president mishandling u.s. top9 secrets for the impeachment probe into the prime minister why? >> the president, why? >> well, because this actually began when we started talking about declassified documents that were mishandled by joe biden. but we since, based on other things that we've heard, whistleblowers and actually joe biden's own testimony, that a maybe there's some documentation with regard to ukraine and china as well. so we want -- we need to get that report so we can see what he looked at, then we need to bring him in, have him sit before us, answer questions and see what more we can find out with regard to these investigations that have involved ukraine and chinese misconduct on the part of
5:57 pm
perhaps joe biden. elizabeth: what are you hearing about the special counsel's report on the president, you know, basically mishandling classified secrets as it relates to the biden family selling access overseas in places like china and ukraine? >> well, that's, that's what we're hearing, so that's why we've got to get to the bottom of it. i mean, what's important here is that the special counsel used the term willful, that he did this willfully. that implies intentionality. that implies criminality. that's why when we hear there's maybe some linkage to the ukraine, you know, quid pro quo withs or the chinese pretty quo -- quid pro quos, we've got to peel back the onion so we can get to the center and the heart and find out what a really went on as far as what the i.g. found out. elizabeth: congressman, what's stopping the doj from sending over this information? because i think last october the justice department said no to your committee getting this information because the probe was ongoing. but now that it's over, can't they just send this information
5:58 pm
over to house oversight? i mean, what's stopping them? >> what's stopping them is they don't want to give us the information. so we're going to keep pushing and get them to bring the information over. i mean, just don't forget that other special counsels have been more forth onlying when they've -- forthcoming when they've got their report done and they've concluded their investigation. this has drawn out a little bit, it's going slower, so we want that information asap. and so comer's, chairman comer's working on it, pushing on it, and9 rest of the committee as well. elizabeth: okay, so the president, according to reports, kept a file folder with things like a telephone call sheet from december 2015. talking the points for a call with the ukrainian prime minister, there's also notes about the president's, asking his executive assistant get a copy of this conversation for my records. the notice signed, joe. that document was mark pd as secret. do we have -- marketeds
