11:01 pm
i have a travel advisory for new york city, a very conservative or a republican or a trump supporte york citr. beware in the weaponized biden criminal justice system. well, political differences are now considered especially heinou, politis. h and if new york's powerful democrats hate your politicsei, well, a prison cell might well be in your future or some kind of conviction for something. well, that they make up withouts a second thought. well, those these democrats, a crie make up a crim conduct, a show trial rig, tri a conviction with a hand-pickea, biden donating judge, regardless of the evidence. if they could even explain i regardlet. and just hours ago, the former president of the unitehours agd states now running for a second term, donald j. trump, wasrunning fo convicted d felony counts and will be sentenced o h, a few daysa before the republican convention. how convenientfew days. but most americans, including people in that very courtroocano can't even identify the alleged feloniesy the that is because i
11:02 pm
is a conviction without a crime. pom against joe biden's cheap political rival, rival in the middle of ina presidential campaign. the only so-called evidence was a presid testimony, let'sed tes say, from a serial liartifr who admitsom has an ulterior i motive, who is even likely caught lying on the stand during his testimony. we'll see over time and is now te wil and admitted thief on top of everything. but of course, the left, they will celebrate.celebr they will sing. they will dance.at sin they will high five gleefully call trump a convicted felon. wive,now they're cheering the d of what would be, let's see, equal justice under the law,l ju equal application of ourst. let me bear no doubt here thisr is a sad day for our country. it's a sad day forth our justice system. the best justice system ever created by man. the foundationticete of ourtion constitutional republic. it's literally dying befor e. your eyes. lawfare now rules the day. if a former president running
11:03 pm
for a second term with near unlimited resourceins can tre be treated like this. no one is safe. they shoul, nod send a chill dow the spine of every business leader and politician, not just in new york, frankly, because we have a weaponized departmento of justice under joe biden. you step out of line, a corrupt democrat of some kind somewhere will throw you in jail. but if you beat the living outu poli police officer or old people in new york city and it's on vider olo, don't wo. no bail needed and a slap o on the wrist. nis that justice to you? in this case, bragg employed this novel new never applied before legal theory again, never trie d u.s. history. he took a far fetched misdemeanor. well past the statute of limitations, then magically convertesdemeanod into a felonya federal law based on someny nebulous, unspecified federal o election violation that was neve
11:04 pm
r charged or prosecuted,which of which he has zero jurisdiction. bragg then multiplied same charge 34 times. that's a shady maneuvechargercad called count stacking the case that mysteriously made its way a a far left partisan, judge. name one, merchan. oh, by the way, donated to joe biden, martians daughter, a democratic n joe political operative who reports they may very well profiocalt ts very trial. that would be cause for recusal. bbut no one in new york's face of a fake justice system. so this is what a conflict of interest. remember a, he was purposelye picked for every single trump rathted case rather than having a pool that they chose from as per usual course of business. this was a dream true for juan merchan. he never even tried to hideccori his bias, according to witnesses in the courtroom. marshawn, to simplngy the prosecution allowing rampant speculation. erro simply coddlel event immats
11:05 pm
against donald trump. he all but encouraged the prosecution to mislead the jury and insinuate tiat michael the cohen's electin crimes were tied to this case. he should be viewe to d as an accessory to the the trump crimes before the convictionctio that happened earlier today. very different storyn, t with te defense version actually blocked testimonye actm an election law expert, bradley smith, former head of the fetior he berated trump's team and their key witnesum ts in frt of the jury. he rejected nearly every objection by the defense. he attempted to silence donaldnn trump with was a clearly unconstitutional gag order. and perhaps worst of all, his jury instructions were completely unconstitutionafl, telling jurors they didn't need need what the phantom law was or the phantom underlying election felonyphantr as long as they agreed he did something wrong. that was enough for a convictione didthat and accorg to juan merchan, well, it did
11:06 pm
not need to be unanimous in thet sense of what they believed. naturally, the jurors didn't even teve. did specify on theiri in other words donald trump was fouled and was insane. well, is because it is insane. first, we know from the 2020 supreme court ruling, ramos versus louisiana, quote, there ramendmno question eithe that the sixth amendment unanimity requirement appliesrer to state and federal criminal trials equally. that's notemte i all. here is the us supreme court cure us,rom andre's versus quote, unanimity in a jury verdict required whereired whe the sixth and seventh amendments apply in criminals ru cases. this requirement of unanimity extendiremens to all issues. >> and by the way, character orr degree of the crime, guilt, punishment, which are left to thef th jury. let me repeat. in criminal cases, the requiremena t unanimityse te
11:07 pm
extends to all issues. that's not what thet wh judge instructed this jury. trump also the a right to knowed what he's being charged with. he didn't know the whole time e according to cornell law, the sixth amendment of our constitutiong toe sixt grants,ga all americans the right to known who your accusers are and the nature of the charges and the evidence againste natur. apparently, this rule of law that doesn't apply to juan merchas rulen either. he ignored all civil liberties during his instructions to juror alls. of course, it likely wasn'ty wa a problem for the jury. they barely deliberated despite the complexity of the novel legal theory at play. and they probably all hate donald trump.t so it was probably an easywa sell. remember, york city voted against trump? well, almost 9 to 1. you know, god forbid trump gotth the change of venue. that would have been the right thing to de changevenue o. cutin not what a political persecution is in the works. no, that's not is in in the cards for
11:08 pm
many democrats. thr the lawce unde is now completely tonight meaningless. they just conservatives. they hate republicans and they certainly hate anybody with thee last name trump above all else. they are desperate for one party rule in perpetuity. they're alesperatel on usingt u our justice system as a political weapon. we've talked about the weaponization of our justice system, a dual justice ation of. d it is all for them, a means to an end. an ey, ankfull new york city's far left democrats. here's the best part of of tonight. they don't have the final saght now, here's president trump moments after the verdict. listen closelypresiden. >> it wa >> this was a disgrace. this was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge who is corrupt as a rigged trial, a disgrace. they wouldn't give us a venue change. we wer a e at 5% or 6% in thise at district, in this area.
11:09 pm
this was a rigged, disgraceful trial. is the real verdict is going to be november 5th by the people, and they know what happenedhappn here and everybody knows what happened here. we have ed a series back d.a. and the whole thing we didn't do anything wrong. i'm n, ery innocent ma and it's okay. i'm fighting for our country. d it'si'm fighting for our constitution. our whole country is being riggedtr right now. this was done by the biden administration in order to wound or hurt an opponent or a political opponent. and i think it's just a disgracenent. ting and we'll keep fighting. we'll fight till the end and we'll wiightn because g our country's gone to . we don't have the same countryon . we have a divided mess. we're a nation in decline, in serious decline. millions and millions of people ine, mil people our country right now from prisons and from
11:10 pm
mental institutions, terrorists. and they're taking our country. we have a country that's in big trouble, but was a rigged decision right from day one with a conflictesion rdever who should have never been allowed to try this case? never. enand we will fight for our constitution. this is long from over. than ik very much. >> this case is far from over. r and you will get to render the final verdict in this case in 158 days. this case will be appealed. be v donald trump will be vindicated. i see no scenario in which thii, is not overturned. that's almost a certainty. but will it happen's almosa thn or after the election? all afternoon, all evening, what people have been asking me, what can we do? what can we do? what can wedo do? well, as president trump said, the real verdict will takeal vei place on november 5th. and by p the way voting early voting by mail over come your reluctance or resistance, the system we're stuck with, we needm we legal ballot harvestint
11:11 pm
to match the efforts of democratsharvesti surpass thm partisan observers to watch the voting all day and thee vote counting all night. but if you want this law faing continue elect joe biden. if you want the border crisilecs to continue, people coming from china, russia, iran syria, yemen, egypt, afghanistan, kazakhstanan, vote for joe therk unvetted if you like. defund dismantle no bail laws. vote for biden. if you want more biden,ion, r inflation, reelect the guy that caused it. joe bideee guyn if you're happye with the wars and the carnage overseas. joe biden' wars your guy. if you want all this, you get to decide. not 12 jurors in new york city. ultimately, it's younot 12r. americans who are rightly outraged by this verdict.. they need to take away one major thing, 158 days. you get to decide. and voting early.
11:12 pm
of course, you get to decide at the ballot box. you get to deliver the final verdict. sou get to whatever you're feelw today, may i humbly suggeshatevt you channel that into action on november the fifth. otherwise, this is thed yo america you will hand off to your children and your grandchildre tn, and it will be a steep uphill battle to everup revershille course. anyway, joining us with reaction, fox news contributor jonathan turley, the host of sunday night in america, fox news'sor, host trey gowdy i' us. >> guys, good to see you both. jonathan, you've been with us from the beginningve been . ic look, i was pretty realistic. we both communicated often on air and off air. i think this is a culmination of the weaponized versionof jus of our system of justice. now, for a long timeti for people, i think i think it's anr extraordinarily dangerous time for america. if you look at everything that wrdinarilerice talked about
11:13 pm
the judge and the conflicts that he ha d and the judge beinge a biden donojur and what the judge allowed in closing arguments and juryand wh instructions, the way he treated the defense in this case, , when you put itt all together, it really isn't t? prising, is ire no, it's not surprising. the instructions had that feel. i called in a column yesterday of a contained where you actually shoot game in a g in a cage because in defenseam of som ae of those jurors, they may have not seen any alternative. ty but conviction. i mean, keep in mind, this judge allowed the government to repeatedl judy tell them that was a fact that an election violation and that trump hadt ordered it judge merchan stayetd absolutely silent during abs that statement over and over again, even though it violated his instruction and to this day, we won't know what the jury decided on the conspiracy.
11:14 pm
ret courtrooalm listening to 34 guilty verdictts ,but they didn't say what the jury thought had happened. are n they were unanimous only that some crime, some secondarye seco crime occurred. judge merchan did not require themndime to reach unanimity onm that crime was. it so it's going to go on appeal and the appellate court won't know any more than we have in terms of knowledge as to wasion this an election violation, another falsification of documents, a tax violation. t >> and that's just simply nothe in the record. let >> you know, and trey, let mee bring you in here. and this was a pointg yod i've that jonathan had made and i'd made over and over again. the jury hadoveran been told don and dozens of times that the payments were campaignre violations, especially in closing that sixx hour closing. the judge let all of that go unconsciou t als, predicted in this case.
11:15 pm
case. then you have the issue of, you know, the four or four four where you could just think he's guilty. you're going have one group thinking he's guilty g for four people, think he's guilty for a, four for b,nk four for c. well, that is a direct violation of the u.s. supreme court decision. a dt the 2020 decision of ramos versus louisiana under, n us versus the u.s.. but again, this was allowethd. now, i believe it's overturned on appeal, but what does that appeal are going to happeep ? do you ever see anything likeen this? you're you know, you're a prosecutor. likthis prosecu d >>on't i don't think you ever l a casea . >> well, the jury was unanimous, sean, in its lack of unanimity. you're right. i tried cases where i had to prove an additionale iases . every death penalty case, you have to prove murder. plus something else beyond a reasonable doubt. and the verdict? the verdict. the jury has to specify what that additional crime is.
11:16 pm
as jonathan and i sit here tonight, we couldn't. we can't tele t hel you whethero was one of those three, whetheri some other crime that that's nebulous that we don't know about. i went i came last weeekk to ths courtroom. i'd heard rumors that the judge was pro-prosecution. look, i was a prosecutor, as you pointed out. s yopointei spent four days in e courtroom, not just. john, i mean, i cannot i would struggle think of a significant objection by the defense that it was actually sustained t and the tone with which he treatedhich that the counsels disparate. he was he let the prosecutor i mean, we were andy and were wr talking about the defense, i think failed to object sometimes to the prosecution closing argument because they had battered lawyer syndrome. they had just been beaten up las for weeks and weeks. so will it be overturnedeks.l on appeal? k of
11:17 pm
i can think of five different ways that it can be, but ithat i don't think it'll happen before the election. which to your other poinn befor the best revenge is success. if you want a justicngestan that doesn't elect a district attorney who promises to go afte doeelecr a political oppona then you need to win at the ballot box. you , alvin breck, name me another crime that he's gotten really, really exercised about.t it's not shoplifting, it's not stealing. it's not hitting'sit's not peop the street. it is alleged hush moneyit's tot keep someone quiet about a sexual encounter. et >> that's what really gets his attention. an>> sean: eight-year-old case,r $130,000 payment. you know, you really it does boggle the mind. a misdemeanor, the statute of limitations have run oumisde but somehow, when did a local new york city courtroom become a place to try a federal election a crime? jonathan turley because that seems rather novel to me tr
11:18 pm
as well. >> or a federal tax crime.al all righ tax ct well, that's whs so maddening about brad's comments tonight when he kepthek on saying, no, this is just standard stuffep. you know, at some point you just strange credulity. you have to admit. this has never been attempted before. even other networkr beens have d that. other networks have said that this wouldn't have been brought agains andd thatt anyonm than trump. and that that's something that if you're an honest perso n ,you have to accept thisn was a political use of the criminal justice system to create this novel, you know, effort. and and i think in the end, though, what you have to tell people who are upset about this is manhattant ar is not the entirety of this nation. we're biggerrety than this case. we're bigger than this district. we have a system that has proven itself over and over again in history. but wevean all to take a leap of faith, we have to take a breath. >> but, jonathan, let me ask you, ith. k yof may, lance said today,
11:19 pm
but we have a weaponized department of justice under joe bidehan. e bide remember, the third highest ranking official left that prestigious positionst - come in and work on this case? you know, do you agree with me that that doj is weaponized? i think it's pretty clear it i is. well, this case, i think, hasaly really fulfilled the argument of many that you a weaponizedthy system. the factoue we that colangelo ci from the third position in doj to help lead this case reallyme reaffirmed that. but, you know, being in that room, you had a sensece of history and it was overwhelming. the question is what history it made. yeah, they convicted, a former president, but they may thye also gotten this countr to focus in a way that has never happened before. n on the misuse of the legalth system. and so history may have been madee le in a different way. this may galvanize americans, including some that don't likep. donald trump, but they don't
11:20 pm
like what was done in this case to get donald trump and i had a feeling that we did have the sense of history in both ways, in that courtroom. >> trey, we'll give you the last word. what do you think the outcomu e this is? professor dershowitz will joines us latersor , thinks that this s is really a precedent setting moment and that this lawfare is onlndy going to continue because they were successful . ing ity >> at some point, it has to stop short and and look, do i blame allegedly progressive prosecutors or really defenses n attorneys masquerading as prosecutors? i do, but i really blame voterse who will electal people too go after certain targeted individuals. er prosecutors go after crime. they do not go after people. reo and the judge. there's a reason the lady wears a blindfold. sean, there'e lady a s reason for it.no she's not supposed to care whether you're republican or democrat t, white, male, female.
11:21 pm
if we don't get back to thoser days. i mean, you asked professor turley about the weaponizationts of doj. just look at what was done to jeff fortenberry and looks no do what was not done to the u.s. attorney in the district of massachusetts att. d her they had her on a falseonl statement. nothing happened to hestatemenr so you treat people the same. be fair. t that if we lose that, then we've lost our justice as well. mar-a-lago was ratedry hillary clinton. no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute, delete 33,000 emails, take money, give it to a law firm, funnel it to anrn app research firm, hire a guy. christopher steele got a dirty russian dossier. use it to acquire for pfizer warrants. no problemn and that is and and joe biden has no problemsh with classified and top secret document. classifiedt get rated. this is what americans are seeing tonight. and itis iwhat is a scary momenk i think, for the country.
11:22 pm
but thank you both. we appreciate you staying up late tonight. i know you guys have been working hard. thank you. all right here to reacti to today's verdict, former president president trump's legaknow beeng late, verdict,l . well, not former. i mean, she's president trump'ss spokesperson, lina harber. she's been in the courtroom the whole timeon the. >> you know, everybody i knowev around president trumperyb, he's completely stoic. did saw this coming. clea i guess that was clear in his comments about mother teresa. however in hr, sure, it doesn'te the sting away and based on the actionsd on this judge. one has to wonder, you know, four days before the rnc. is he goinr g to releasee president trump on his own recognizance pending appeal? is he going to declare his hashtag home confinement?e can't go to a debate, can't go to his own convention pending appeal? or will he want to send them to jail? nothing that judged them decides will shock me now. >> it won't shock me.
11:23 pm
let's remember who this judge is. sean, let's be very clear. and i am s o happy to be on this s show on such an important day in american history, becauseuc f we don't stop this now, we are done. and i don't mean now.n righ i mean right now, as in yesterday. judge mercha iyesterdan today w my client. i watched him. i watched the jury say guilti wd 34 times and i watched him and he looked at my client and covered his mouth. and he covered his mouth overedthgr,cause he was smilin . let's be very clear.hi this judge has been weisselberga and no, no shock to me. trump and he is 100% a man that should have recused himself. but our justice system is sold . right now, sean. and i want to also remind the american wan people of one thing. i'm a legal spokesperson. i'm also an american. aand i will be voting for trump not because of president trump, who i obviouslybecaus, pr but because i support america. and so does he. our country is currently in aunr serious state, and we cannot
11:24 pm
look at this as anything other than a serious state of affair g othes ,where we have an issue where people are using politics in the legal courtroom. it cannot happen any more.e i have seen it. itn in court since october, trial after trial after trial for 15 years. hav i have been practicing law. i have never seen anything like this in my life. and that judge intentionally d that even allow in pretrial proceedings that the court will not repor pt. they would not allow us tous t bring up that president trump didn't eveg n take deductions. he didn't do anything wrong. his cfe deduo him, the trumpnizi organization, the family, nothing. but that evidenconily,e was kepm from the jury. and it is intentional. this is no e t america. and i'm speaking to msnbcspeaki viewers and cnngn viewers. the rachel maddow shows that kaitlan collins, it is time to come together because this administration does not care about us.t us. >> they do not. they care about themselves. e abthey don't care either becan
11:25 pm
they got what they wanted politically. and that'sted., you know, for t, it doesn't matter. the ends justify the means. i will say this and i said this' a number of daysve ago was on fx and friends and on this show i said it this is not goingelecti to impact the election is my prediction in 158 days. i don't believe it is.it you know, it's amazing. you know, michael cohen himself that he told many people that he did this on his own. you know, at that point, stop right there, that that should sl have ended whatever novel legal theory the puttingve. out. and i said, also, donaldd i sa trump can'idt get a fair triall in new york city and he didn't get a fairin trial in new york r city. and by the way, i'll find t the monehey. o i'd love to buy mar-a-lago forve $18 million and turn around and selld turn over a billion, because that's new york city's sygal system. >> how sad and pathetic is this? yeah, but it's notd an about trp . and i really want everyone >> ip anmtand that i a
11:26 pm
the lawyer. i see the rulings, i see the hearings. it's before the tria e hearingsl start that they do this to us. it's before we can go in. it's so o that his legal spokeswoman is gagged, so that his campaign is gagged so g that president trump is gagged and i'm still gagged. and so is he. and yoagand i'stilu know why?an because they don't want us to speak the truth. that's t called censorship. hip that is not our country. we don't dato that. let americans vote for who they want. and you know what they don't want whond? they don't want what is going on right now, i assure you, because when i walt k in the streets in new york by myself, i am praisedts o and i will tell you, president trump, what we saw today wayos streaming up and down the streets waiting to see him justoday t to give hm a thumbs up. we drove down and down in the numbers. just don't lies down . look at the polls, sean. we are in a serious state, wh of affairser. america is under siege in a different way than i ever thought was possible. and i never thought it would t be people with a law license that would be doing it. judgeshe that would be doing it, >> it's a disgrace. it'sr on one thing,
11:27 pm
too. you know something? i don't want a weaponized system of justice to go after democrats and, treat them way the way donald trump has been treated. donald equal justice, equal application. i'd like to have our constitutionalapplicat back. and that's what i think most good, decent, honorableus american want. alina, you've been very generous with your time throughout this whole trial. k you very t much.hrou all right. joining us now, texas senator ted cruz is with us.with senator. you know, if you look at this cumulatively, ali, and i mentioned hillary clinton, no reasonable prosecutor will prosecuted top secretret cl classified information. of coursas e, you want to talk t about a real fec violation. you giveut money to a law firm. they give it to an up research firm. her guthey hire a guy, christopr steele. he comes up with a dirtynforma misinformation, russian dossier. you usti e it to e it to get four orcandd five czar warrants to spy on a candidate. donald trumpat, a transition tem trump, and then a president trump. you raid the you don't write
11:28 pm
anything with hillary. you don't raid anything with joe biden. but you go after donald trump. then you adde biu it. russia, russia, russia that went on three years all debunked all the lies told by the media, by the democrats, all the conspiracya an theories peddled, you know, impeachment one, you have impeachment. j and it just, you know, culminating in this and you know something, senator, more and more people, e they're reaching out to me and saying, what the is happeninreg to our great countr? they see this foppr what it is.s i believe donald trump will win in part because of all of this. my confidencuse is higher than t was yesterday because of all of this. i's yedaand this outcome today. i'm speaking too much. you're a guest. i want to hear what you have to sa mh your to say.y. nk well, listen, john, i think you're exactly right. what we saw today wa exacts, an absolute travesty of justice. this was not law. thisty of ju not criminal justin
11:29 pm
this was politics. this was a political smear job.k this was an attack job.ed this is what you see in banana, republic. and it is i am both furious and heartbroken at theam same time. i'm furious at what we saw, but i'm also heartbrokene timeor the rule of law. i'm heartbroken for our justice system. heartjust night i was on with you and i suggested maybe there was hopei d that for the jury, maybe one juror would hope would hold out. and i got to say, you shookd sad your head and said, no, new york is too far gone new. yy i'm sorry to say, sean, you were right. there was noright,t one at a 12t who stood up and said, this is garbageup and. this is this is election interference. these are lies. es this is a kangaroo court. we didn't have a single juror. that said that. now, you look at the rulings thom thit ths judge, this partin judge, they were so biased. i'm going to tell you right now the chances that this decision is overturned on appeal, belie i believe are 100.0. thisve will be overturned.
11:30 pm
>> and by the way, the judge knows it will be overturne thed and that's the whole point. he doesn't care. the objectivt e today was to ge the two words that we saw, the biden whitge e say in theire sa press press release today. convic theirt hated felon betwew and november. the democrats and the corporatbe will use the words convicted felon. mabout a billion times.io this is all about politics and influencing the electionisgc and it is a disgrace. soe. is it a really come downasi to senator, as i said, that the real verdict can be renderedmera now by the american people and that verdict will be renderedpeople ierdict on novem. and the is early voting, votingy by mail ahead of time, which mastrongly encourage as much as i don't like it, but i think that verdict will be reallyil this coming election. do you agree ? >> i d >> i do.o. and listen, i hope and prayy th that that people who care about the rule of law, who carae
11:31 pm
about the constitution, who care about justice, are outraged. >> maybe you love donaldla trum, maybe you can't stand donald trump. >> but -- but if you caru eou about our system of justice, if you care about democracy look, look, saying democracy feels strange now because every democrat run democs around like a peacock squawking about democracy. is an assault on democracy. and i really hope i got to say,e in the senate, we have 51 senators. >> not one has the courage1 tors to stand up and say this is wrong. i would respect a democrat senator who says, listenit , wih i disagree with trump, i'm not supporting him. but thisrump shouldn't be what we're doing. we should not be abusing the justice systeme do b, go afr our enemies, and not a single one of them is willing to say that they will all say felon, felon, felon and they're c complicit in the corruption of our systen thm. s and my hope is that it openss pe some people's eyes, that it opens people's eyeop s. this is rigged and corrupted in a way that is dangerous.
11:32 pm
>> senator cruz, thank you again for being with us. joining us now, florida senator marco rubio is with us. senator, i got your immediate show in on my radio real time. and you are extraordinarily passionate about what we're wha living through, what this means. let's talk about i t. >> this is the quintessential show trial. this is what you see in communist countries. this is what i grew up havinunis g i in this community. tell me about it happened in the days after the castro revolution m . ecutio obviously, those bloody executions. this, on the other hand, is an nsn thhand ieffort to interferen election. look, joe biden, okay, let's all be clear about what's happening. , clear joe biden is clearly senic and declining economy weakle, th which is why the world is on fire. he he's incompetent, which is why we on fie have runawayyn inflation and a border that is being invaded every single day. flr iand then add to all of thae likes to lie. he tells people lies all the time about how great the economy's doing, how great that how there is no problem at the bordee r the guy's behind in the polls. he can't win. the only chance they have to win this election is ton, o keep donald trump in a courtroom tied up in this
11:33 pm
case. in that case , the other casetroo in this particular case, they found themselves a democratd in lawyer. this is a guy who gave moneyo 0, to joe biden 20 and 2020. this guy, i'm sorry, a democrat judge, this judge gave money to joe biden in 2020. his daughter is a campaign consultant for democratss who'se actually actually out there marketing, convict trump stuffra . okay. then you've got a d.a. who basically said, i am going to go after trump and pu t i'a got awayg when he was running for office to get elected. he didn't know what he's going to put them awayfo to get e, but he promised to put them away for something. then you have a jury. we don't know who they then are,y li but i know this. they live in manhattan, which votend 85% for joe biden. and so you put out and then what do they charge him with? donald theon, we trump signed cs and when they labeled the checks, they paymentecksss to his lawyer, who, by the way, is a serial liar and the keyy witness this case, he put legal expenses and that is what he p him on.ed but that's not the goal here. the goal here is to keep them tied up in court g . e' you think this judge sets that day three days before the convention is a coincidence
11:34 pm
,he knows exactly what dayt he he said and he knew exactly why he was doing it, that this is the most outrageous travesty ever seen. that and the problem here is democrats have crossed the line. they've crosse demts had the line in which now the court system is the political weapon. and it's going to be very hardea for it not to come back the other way. i don't want that. i heard you sayingck her way, hea that earlierbut in the show, but i think we need to understand that they crossed the line now neeto and a genie out of a bottle. it's going to be hard to put back in placae. i tend to agree. you know, the judge has a lot>> of latitude going on from here. for days, i guess they begin, you know, the penalty of thiss e case. and four days before the republican conventio andn, will this judge, in fact, putwhl we'lnald trump in jail? will he give him house arrest and? he can't go to his convention. he can't go to a debate. he can't go out and campaignvene by nothing. i put nothing past this judge.my normally, first offense, somebody would put literallyy be released on their own recognizance, especially if you have released to secret sers
11:35 pm
around you at all time. you're not a flight riskot a an, you know, you would then be literally be out on pending appeal. and i put nothing past this thi judge based on his conduct up to today and including today. ha absolutely not. i think that we should expect the worst from this judge. we are.at and it's unfortunate to have to say that, but that's the case. but look, here's the other i, ae the best way to deal with thismp is, number one, go to donald. trump dot com sign up to volunteer donate because we need to win thisnate election.dt that's number two the real verdict is going to be in november. we win that electione in novemb and then i think truly down the road, we're going to have to look at a wave. democrat roa s and republicans, . hopefully together. but i don't know how to prevent this kin but i dod of thing from happening again in the future. we cannot become one of those countries where people, once they leave office, are targetewy through the court system by their political opponents. that's what happens in peru. d r that's what's happened in brazil. that's what's happened in all these countries. it cannot happenaz andl here.ei and that is the direction we are headed right now with what's happening here toda headedhty.
11:36 pm
i know voters are going to be outraged. trump's going to win this election. but we got to makeed, she'lle es never happens to anyone else ever againe ev. n' well said, senator. i can't say it any better. senator marco, thank you. expec as expected, biden wasted almost no time tryinte didn'g to fundraise off the sham guilty verdict, writing, quote, there's only one way to keep donald trump out of the oval trum, a statemballot box echoing a statement from his campaign which immediately . unced on today's his but despite biden's team efforts to capitalize, it was actually it was trump whose donations soared. s soar in fact, so manyed outraged americans flooded the gop primary fundraising platform. the website for an extended period of time. shortly after the verdict watens announced. it was the reaction trump national press secretaryhp leavitt and fox news s contributor kellyanne conwayecra and hurt. caroline, you've been there most of the time. let'.s get your perspective on today and the entire trial. >>toda well, this trial has beed
11:37 pm
rigged from the beginning dnd it has been concocte by joe biden in the corrupt democrat party. this case wae and s brought by ase was far left deranged democrat prosecutor alvin. it was overseen by a leftist democrat judge who is highly tha conflicted and should have recused himself. t walyand they brought it heren in manhattan, a democrat jurisdiction that they knoww voted for, joe biden, 8020 in the last election. t and if they can do thishi to president trump, they can do itan to.ricans anyone. so americans out there, if you want to stop this, weaponiz oheree nation of our je system, if you do not want four more years of this dictator, this true threat to our democracy, joe bidenbide, in the white house, then you have to vote forsident president trump on november the fifth. he says it all the time. november the fifth will go down as the most important dal goy in our nation's history. and that is ultimately where he will be vindicatertion'sd the will win. but we need all hands on deck. and yes, joe biden. d hand shamefully, is fundraising off of the political persecutiond
11:38 pm
of his opponent. that tells you everything you need to know about this yo that isgime in power. so go to donald j. trump dot com supportident trump stand on the side of democracy, of law and orderto . we need people to volunteer. we need you to get your friends to volunteer and everyone needsu to get out and vote on november the fifth. that is ultimately when victoryy will prevail. >> will you know, kellyanne, interesting, mark lotter tweeted out or put on x watch, democrats have no problem threatening supreme court the legitimacy of the court. now suddenly attack anyone that disagreesattack with this . >> pretty predictable, right? your reaction. it is indeed. and i'm going to be forwar d looking at this point because i know how resilient and resolute president trumpe n, is. he's not going to be stuck in that courtroom now. he's going to he's going to be free to go there and campaign for this election. look, marise, toda c y released a poll that has donald trump's lead among independents 'ss drao
11:39 pm
the highest on record for them. i don't think this verdict e that at all. in fact, independents look at themselves as a victim of the system. they don't like career politicians. they don't like the way washington, d.c. operates. poorr this insurgent slash incumbent donald trump, who's got the incumbent' o thes of four years of a strong economy, energy independence, a strong borden ng er, no new ws abroad, much safer at home, much, muchuc more prosperous at home. and that's what they're going to want. again, if i were president trump, i'd focuss what n th the debate, my running mate run and making america great. there should be the three big t messages moving forward. all the people whossages f are d to be on his long, short list for vp. they're not hiding there. they're on your show. they're on other shows. they're coming out and saying,sa we need to rally around it t and support. and by the way, this verdict won't change. one fundamental thins g. j it won't make joe biden any less 81 years old. it won't make kamala hart, kamala harris smarter or more inspirational. it won't excuse the fact
11:40 pm
that joe biden has crushed the american dream for so many people, particularly youngerd tm people. it won't make those young people on college campuses, in the halls of congress anyd at less mad at biden overn his position on israel and hamaovers. and and it certainly won't have stopped millions of people from pouring over our borderabou that donald trump warned us of nine years ago. s agnine years ago. he elevated that into the national consciousness. we have people from the terror watch list. we have people, chinese nationals and the rest. soatchlist s so peo people already feeling that we are not secure, we are not prosperous. they want that back and this will not affect their wish list. and by the way, joe biden is obsessed with donald trump. y he can ignore him and try to beat him based on the joe biden record, but they simply can't. people don't like one person can'being insult, stood, investigated, impeached, indicted, convicted. s about one person. and that person projects strengthbu at a time of weaknes. people want strength and fairness in this country. fawe saw today a lack of both. a and we will see in president trump both unfol seed displayer
11:41 pm
between now and november. let's get your take, charlie you know, i was struck by the white house, his response to this verdict today. they were talkin verdictg about accusing donald trump of vengeance and running a campaign of revengef reve and bringing back chaos if he gets back into the whitd ee h house. my goodness. could you imagine more chaos and more vengeanceit on displayy than what we see right here, right now? you know, since donald trump left office three years ago, over three years ago, we have two new wars. we have an invasiowe hadn at the border. you have an economy that's not working fon econr people inflatn has skyrocketed. energy prices have gone upfo. p, america has lost its place. its dominanc itse in energy independence, all because of the policies of joe biden. meanwhile, young people are getting out of college tryin, ms to get their first home, trying to get they can't even get rent becausd tre joe biden is so bus paying for free rent for millionsbi illegals that he's
11:42 pm
allowed into this countryil and people at the frustrationil is boiling over. and what is it the democrats innd whaare focused on paper cra that happened eight years ago that had something dod el with rigging an election that had already happened. thislp is. when we look back at this in, you know, ten years, 20 years, you're not going to be able to explain this to peoplehis who weren't alive at this time to witness it, because you'llat be like, well, and they'll be like, why do they hate donald trump so much? and they were like, you won'doct be able to explain it, but this is where we are. and if and it thf people do not stop democrats in the election from winning by doing this, they will never run another election for all of history. an wnevey other way.. but like this. and so if you don't if you don't want to stop democrats for all the good policy reasons, just stop them to save the country. all right, caroline. kellyanne and charlie, thank you all. all right. joinin >> thinkg us now with reaction,
11:43 pm
house judiciary committee chairman jim jordan. g well, you are heading up the weaponization of of justiceo investigation. yeah, i don't think it gets anyn more cleart thin than this. >> if people needed any more evidence. >> yressman. >> no, you're exactly right, sean. but i still think the best line of the day came from president trump. and you've said it already. but when president trumpd yo itt and said the real verdict will be on november 5th, beecouldn't be mor right because that day we, the people will decide who's goineg to win, who's going to be our president, not some partisan judge,om some political prosecutor, not 12 people from manhattan. cal pros 1but we, the people, 3l of us get to decide,e on that day. that, to me is the realth r takeaway here. and i thineak i thinke the american people are going to be clearly and strongly for president trumericanp. l that you can feel that. you saw what happened with the website today. you know happene, president trui a line that i think is so good when he's out on the stumpt ,when he's at these rallies, he says, they're coming after my freedom, after because i'm fg
11:44 pm
for yours. >> and i think the country sees that eve. inn more clear today. and that's why i think he's going to win becauseolitic they see this for the political operation. >> never forget alvin bragalg said this. he went first. he campaigned there, was going to get trump. but when he getsn in office and he sees how ridiculous this case is, he doesn't want to bring i swus the ct. he even says, i can not envision a world where i indicnl president trump and call michael cohen as a prosecution witness. >> but he switched cohen aftertm president trump declared he was running for president of the unitedp declar states. i think underscoring just how political this whole thingks really was. >> yeah, it's unbelievable. wellreally, we'll see what happs with this weaponization. when do you think you'll concludeis weapoon, what your investigation? >> well, we keep going. look, we mark pomerantz,e gu the guy who envisioned this whole strategy that they use two ,go after president trump. this idea that the misdemeanor somehow morphs int o some crimeas that they'll never define. that was mark pomerantz. we bought him down for a deposition mar and we had bob costello come testify. and then the very next week,
11:45 pm
the truman verp team put himan on the witness stand and he told us how wrong michael cohe w n was, how much he's a liar. so we're going to keep everything everythin liar.keepgn the table because as many of your guests have said, we cannot allow this to continuy oe in our great country. >> what a novel thought that youa nove actually people k and not stifle what they can and cannot sayk an. ereste oh, i'd be interested in hearing more about what costello has to sayearingna about alvin bragg and his team being told by him about exculpatory informationy before they went to the grand jury to get the indictment. i'ion befohey wentd be intereste outcome of that, too. congressman, thank you. so com a e the great one. i mark levin weighs in on the trump guilty verdict . raight aheadhe . rahe mayheadhe event that i can. >> absolutely. at new day, usa. elp them what we're doing.them we put our arm around the veterans. i think that the veteran out there that he needs to refi his home, he may want to purchase and we can help them. and provide that financial solution for them and their families. families. >>

due process, conflicted judge soros, prosecutor, manhattan jury. you know, i'm going to tell you something, sean. i've spent most of my legal career, not as a former federal prosecutor, although i served as a chief of staff to an attorney general. i've spent most of my legal careert , these people suing the federal government, the dojy ,the irs, the treasury d department, the epa, suing campaigns, fighting over voting rights laws and so forth. and one thing i don't think our audience understands and you need our to understand,e have too many lawyers who risk averse, too many lawyers a who will whine and complairen i have spent 40 years sittinge p down with peopleen who on legal brass knuckles and take these on in court. i'm on the at the appellate and supreme court level. that'she where my focus has been my entire career. so what they neetired do now, iy view, is to go up the appellate chain in new york.
