you can't do it. >> can i stand ultimately in the big chair and, look, if he asks me, i think the answer is yes. >> do you look like george washington? you look just like george washington. >> don't ever be burdened by other people's limited ability to see who can do what. >> happy everyone. >> you look at our administration and you will see for ourself we got all of this chocolate running this city. >> i'm so happy i got that shot up and down on 18. americans, man. i didn't want to fin issue that that one again. >> real feeling still hasn't kicked in yet. tonight it was worth it. >> shannon: what a week. monday on "special report" we begin our series looking at voters top issues. we start with immigration and the border crisis. thanks for watching "special report." i'm shannon bream in washington. we will live from the supreme court for "fox news sunday." "the ingraham angle" is next. ♪ ♪ >> laura: good evening everyone i'm laura incorporate gram this is "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight.
4:01 pm
as always, thanks so much for joining us. now, desperate to stop the maga express, the biden campaign has tried out more slogans than leo decaprio has tried out 22-year-olds. >> we are going to build back better. we have to. we must. we will. because that's who we are. >> [inaudible] much fun of bidenomics anymore. they are thinking maybe it works to build from the middle out and the bottom up. >> january 6th happened. when he unleashed an insurrection. now he is running again and he is clearly unhinged. >> let me tell you about this ultra maga agenda. it's extreme as most maga things are. >> laura: okay. is any of that landing? well, while the national head-to-head polls are tightening a bit. historically, this is some of the best swing state polling that donald trump has ever seen. he is leading in five key battleground states, even in the allusive pennsylvania. and, whoa, check out biden's al
4:02 pm
approval ratings in some of these states. 36% in arizona. 35% in georgia. 39% in michigan. pennsylvania, and 38% in minnesota. and nevada? wow, the wilmington wonder is that what we are calling him tonight? like he is wildly unpopular. and it's not a communications problem. a comms problem as we say here in washington. it's a policy problem. his policies are killing america. literally. by giving illegal gang members and killers a bus ticket and a free phone, come on, in fellows, the damage, the carnage we have already endured and the desks think about it for a minute that a biden second term that all of that could bring us should give, should give trump a massive victory in november. now, all biden's speech writers can do in seeing all of this is
4:03 pm
try to turn the tables somehow on trump. >> the threat that trump poses greater in the second term than the first. it's clear that when he lost in 2020, and i mean this sincerely, something napped in trump. the threat that trump poses is grader in his second term than his first. it's clear that when he lost in 2020, something literally snapped in this guy. >> laura: yeah, we now know that that's the new slogan. at a private fundraiser in seattle last month. biden supposedly revealed this branding gem that he was going to start using more and more on the trail and wait for it, are you ready for it? trump, he's worse than before. that's it. "the washington post" called this his master strategy. now, no wonder so many people in the press seemed so depressed these days. this is from cnn. biden's searing character attacks on trump may tell a story about his own campaign struggles. and biden's strategy may also
4:04 pm
tell the story of a re-election campaign that is going nowhere near as well as the president must have hoped. and politico, kind of a mouthpiece for the administration, it's worried about black voters in milwaukee saying it's not looking good. they interviewed a former alderman who said this is probably the first time since he had been politically alert in his lifetime that there is a conflict between who you are voting for. and previous election cycles it was a no-brainer that most black folks in milwaukee would vote for the democratic nominee but not anymore. but, fear not, crest fallen lefties. there is a new plan afoot to turn it all around. abc is reporting that biden is now hunk erred down working on his punchier more pointed remarks to attack trump. working hard in camp david. now, in what universe did they think that joe biden at any age
4:05 pm
was capable of sounding punchy, witty, and more pointed? >> trump is trying to make the country forget just how dark and unsettling things were when he was president. well, we will never forget lying around -- and us him -- him lying around, actually. >> laura: whatever. can i buy a vowel? now, even if biden manages to remain relatively coherent through the debate and doesn't do one of those, well it, still doesn't solve his biggest problem. he cannot run on his agenda. he can't tell people their life is better than it was four years ago, because it's not. and their plan to make this campaign about character, well, it's a total loser. that new fox poll that some people are talking about, shows that the candidates' ability to handle the issues is what this campaign is mostly about. beating out the candidates' character and fitness.
4:06 pm
questioning biden's character. and think about it this way. how could a good man do what this man has done to the country these past three and a half years? how can a man of integrity blatantly lie about inflation, blatantly or about what he knew about his son's foreign businesses? so given where things stand today, you bet, you bet they're pushing the panic button. joining me now glenn greenwald. independent journalist pulitzer prize winning journalist. glenn, i it's so good to see yo. and i know the press spent credibility and capital on this trump's a dictator story line. and maybe that's -- explains a little bit of the erosion you have seen in some of these statewide polls but how do you see this line of attack playing
4:07 pm
out over the next four or five months for biden? >> i think the whole issue here is the media issue. and its relationship to our politics. we know, of course, that the key dynamic shaping our politics is that most people have come to hate institutions of authority, the media being the most hated of all. and the reason is because they have seen the media lie on purpose for partisan ends in 2016 when they concocted the russia gate collusion theory and they country and that turned out to be false. 2020 they proved they would lie for the hunter biden laptop called russian disinformation which was false. i think in these two areas, laura, one, how people are managing and farrowing in the united states and the other is how capable is biden really? people don't need the media to tell them what to think. they are able to see that much better for themselves. how did they feel their family is doing? not well. how do they think biden is performing? extremely poorly. and the media cannot convince them that what they are seeing is false.
4:08 pm
>> laura: and, glenn, this line that it's kind of in tandem with trump is a dictator is that trump is out for revenge. and it will be nothing but a bloodbath of political revenge if he wins. and i'm hearing them say this and i think you are literally trying to put him in jail. multiple court cases. and trump is out for revenge? that's rich. well, yeah, i mean, first of all, again, i think they have a huge uphill battle it would be one thing if there were some new personality that very few people understood politically and they wanted to say this some kind of hitler figure they tried that with trump in 2016. people went through the next four years. we didn't see cramps being built or aoc and rachel maddow or joy behar being thrown into them. this idea that he is going to be a real hitler figure this time. people remember trump for four years and didn't see any of that of course, the real eye none any what you said, laura, they are basically saying explicitly we
4:09 pm
must keep trump out of the office by imprisoning him before the election, because, if we don't and he wins, he will then weaponize the justice department in order to try and imprison his political enemies. and it's not just trump. a huge number of people who associated with president trump who are either in prison, facing charges, and that has been the case since 2018, they have been weaponizing the system against their political opponents in a way we have never seen before. and so trying to convince americans he is the real danger to do it. i think even for the media, if i were them, would be a bridge too far. >> laura: yeah, and their disinformation ploy is also just revealing once again that they're all clashing with each other. they want less free speech, not more free speech. and show call everything disinformation if it actually, you know is, any way critical of their world view. glenn, have you been all over. this thank you so much. wonderful to see you. all right, trump's outreach to democrat strongholds may be bearing fruit. prult multiple polls biden's
4:10 pm
support black voters dipping between 15 and 20 percentage points since 2020. biden has that problem with black voters in milwaukee as i mentioned in 2016 hillary clinton's underperformance in milwaukee, filly and detroit. hurt her immensely. congressman jim clyburn is now saying it's all disinformation. >> this man says he has delivered for african-americans. i asked them to show me one single substantive thing. that he has done. that would make black americans proud to be a part of this effort. we have to be very careful because this is all about miscommunication, disinformation, the media repeating these things rather than reporting what is actually happening. that is what's causing the problem. >> laura: yeah. higher incomes under trump were misinformation. nice try, jim. all right, trump continues his blue city tour this weekend in philly. now, that's a city we know has
4:11 pm
been rocked by skyrocketing drug use. homelessness, and retail theft. and the scenes from neighborhoods in philly, i know we have seen them on social media and they are in every major city. in philadelphia, the birthplace of freedom, it's heart breaking. and donald trump thinks that philadelphia's minority community is getting a raw deal here. and that message may resonate. joining us now are two pennsylvania voters, israel cruz and anton gist. antwon, let's start with you. congressman clyburn says biden is not losing support with black voters. do you agree with that? >> thank you laura for having me on. biden is losing the streets as they would say in filly. all the internet is talking about it they actually have to drum up support to actually protest against trump coming here tomorrow. but, i met president trump last
4:12 pm
week in detroit. a very warm, you know, comforting man. and i really believe that people are waking up, the scales are coming off of their eyes. >> laura: israel, why did you republican after you voted mostly democrat in your lifetime? >> yes. i grew up in new york and philadelphia, and that's all we were told is vote democrat, vote democrat, vote democrat livings at and no correlation going on there, you are like the media is lying so what else do i not trust? and that other problem, i started not trusting them. i started not trusting the democrats and then i started looking into things myself. and i saw that when they spoke, they were lying. and when i saw -- you know, the republican party is supposedly for the rich.
4:13 pm
and the democrats are for the poor. why do i want to be for the poor? i wanted to move my family forward. i wanted to propel myself. that's all they wanted us to do is to take that little meal ticket. welfare checks, whatever. we're not going to do that in my family. >> laura: i like that analysis, although most of the billionaires are still supporting biden, most of them. not all but most of them. because they like to keep wages low in the united states. an taiwan, i know you voted for hillary in 2016. you started looking at trump's politics more closely. you shifted to him in 2020. and a lot of people don't know this but in philadelphia, although, of course, hillary won handily, trump picked up more voters and he picked up a third ward in northeast filly. i think it was the 58th ward, so there is obviously a lot of room to grow for trump. but people are citing the way he has been treated by the legal system as yet another reason forever african-american voters to take interest in his
4:14 pm
campaign. do you see that as a possible plus for him? >> i do see that because trump is being looked at as the under dog. he is being looked at as the person who has been persecuted. and, you know, philadelphia, we're a home of rocky. you know, the story. we are always routing for the underdog. so that's why trump is really resonating with a lot of philadelphiaians. >> laura: israel, do you think this visit by trump is going to matter in the end? every trip to a blue city by republican has not been done in a long, long time. but what does it say to the voters on the ground? >> it says exactly what i wanted. what i would do myself. if you want the people to know that you care about them, you show up. that's what family does. that's what friends do. when you show up, you are telling them i'm here for you. and when you don't, you are
4:15 pm
telling them exactly who cares? who cares about you? >> laura: amazing. israel, antoine, we can talk all night. thank you so much. i'm fascinated by what is happening in philadelphia and in pennsylvania. and up next, woke manhattan d.a. bragg rewarding his friend, punishing his enemies. we're going to explain it, next. ♪ ( ♪ ) luke's mom: without easterseals, my luke would be a very different luke. look up. where you going? luke's mom: there's an incredible urgency to get your child into services,

4:23 pm
can understand, they can conform their to the law and laws are enforced even handily. what we're seeing right now is a massive under enforcement of the law. these people are obviously breaking the law by trespassing, by doing all kinds of other things that are clearly illegal and unlawful and the d.a.s aren't prosecuting. i mean, that's the way our system works. the legislatures make the laws, but the executive branch has the obligation to enforce them. and now we're seeing that that's not happening. and so what is happening now is that we're seeing the selective enforcement of the law. they will come up as you just said with this novel theory to go after president trump while the same time they are ignoring all of this lawlessness that's taking over the streets of our country. >> laura: we wonder why the west coast is suffering from, you know, a make exodus and most major cities there. i mean, people want to live in safety, people want laws evenly

4:25 pm
i think he should talk about the american public and issues that american people care about. but he is pushing for an extension of this gag order. now, he is already sentenced, chris, what is this. >> it makes no sense, laura. the whole justification for the gag order was not to influence the jury or witnesses or anything like that. at this point, this is just naked election interference, what does alvin bragg have with this unprecedented gag order? i mean, this is really, you know, spinning out of control. i just think it's undermining respect for the rule of law. you know, i have to say i think the courts have to start taking these selective prosecution cases very seriously now. because, traditionally that's been very hard to show shaw are a victim of selective prosecution, but i think what we are seeing with our own eyes and ears that the courts are going to have to start addressing that and seeing no, no, no. you can't do this. >> laura: great point. they need to feet pain on the legal side. chris, excellent point. of course, i wish i thought of

>> laura: adoption brought me the greatest joys i have in life of my three children. they are blessing even in thirteen years. yeah, it's to the easy. millions of adopt the parents and foster parents here and around the world feel the same. it's a beautiful thing. the same activists who claim to care so much about the children are actually hurting the children by blocking devout christians from becoming foster parents. pastor brian gant and his wife rebecca have been fostering kids since 2016 they say the last year the vermont department of children and families asked them to take in a baby about to be born to a homeless woman addicted to drugs. well, after praying about it. they decided to say yes. but then, they got an email from the state explaining that they must accept the state's orthodoxy about gender fluidity even if the foster parents hold divergent personal opinions or beliefs. well, the gants say they would
4:43 pm
unconditionally love and support any child placed with them but, of course, they would not forsake their own religious beliefs. joining me now is pastor ryan gantd and his attorney malory slight. pastor, you say that the department of families and children responded by refusing to just let you take this child and then they revoke your license? what is going on here? >> yes. they did. it's a been amazing. we fostered over seven years. adopted three kids out of the foster care system now because of simply our religious beliefs we can't even take a baby to foster according to the state. >> laura: i can't believe this is the united states of america. i say that a lot lately. but this is -- chris winters who is the commissioner of the department of children and family said we want to make sure that kids in foster care are placed in homes that support all aspects of what makes them who they are. and that sometimes includes their sexual orientation or gender identity.
4:44 pm
malory, you know, again, your client was going to take in a baby. so, how does gender etiology play into this and isn't this just rank religious discrimination by the state of vermont? >> it absolutely is. and, really gender ideology doesn't play into. this in fact, the department chose the gantz out of all of their foster parents because they are so great with kids who are dependent on opioids. and, yet, because of their religious beliefs, the department then changes their minds and says not only can you not foster this child, you can't foster any infant baby each couple hours because of your belief. >> laura: i have looked into this case have you exemplar plenipotentiary record for what
4:45 pm
have you done for kids unwanted in the state of vermont. you and your wife are incredible. and have you gotten praised the licensing case worker has said i hope we find out more. the whole department agrees you are the perfect home and first choice for this baby. again, pastor your religious beliefs belief in god and the bible all those words, i guess they don't matter anymore? >> apparently not. you know, again, we had had such a wonderful relationship with the department for seven years. you know, it's just our heart. as christians to care for these kids. that are in need. pastor downtown and i see the needs of family. i see the drug crisis every day from my office as i look outside. and we just want to be part of this solution. >> laura: so malory, not only do they want to fuel more
4:46 pm
homelessness and drug addiction by pushing legalization everywhere. but now they want to take away foster homes from unwanted babies because they hate christians. i'm sorry, i'm being very blunt tonight, but that seems what is going on. they get you both ways. >> only a couple days ago the department sent out another email to everybody on their list begging for any ideas they had or solutions because they are out of options. it's such a placement crisis and they have so many children they can't place that they are begging for help. yet, we represent two families right here who have adopted five kids. they ever told you cannot adopt or foster because of your religious beliefs. >> laura: christians need not apply. brian and malory we will be following, this thank you. the left doesn't want christians to adopt. now it turns out they don't have a baby at all. the massachusetts department of health just launched a $1 million taxpayer funded campaign warning about the

dangers of pro-life pregnancy centers. >> whether you need pregnancy care or abortion care, avoid antiabortion centers. they may look like medical clinics, but can put your health at risk. they mislead you about your option fuss are pregnant. >> laura: okay. so, what dangerous things do these crisis pregnancy centers do? well, they do things like provide free testing, free ultrasounds and counseling for alternatives to abortion. oh, the horror. joining me now is theresa larkin, executive director of your options medical. a pregnancy crisis center in massachusetts. theresa, what are the state bureaucrats really afraid of here? >> >> can i only surmise they are afraid of women having their babies. as you alluded, to you know, instead of supporting and encouraging the services that we do provide as you said pregnancy testing, material resources,

agriculture per year. >> laura: you scent us a video from when you captured a pack of hogs, is that we call them? explain the process of how you capture them and what happens after you do that. >> laura, we have traps set up around our ranches. they have a -- they have a cell capture system on them so when the hogs walk in the traps, we get a signal and we get a picture and we can remote trap them. we can release the gates and we try to get the whole sound. we weight until all of them get in there and a big group of hogs is called a sounder. >> laura: friends of mine actually pay money to hunt wild hogs. there's a guy in florida i know who takes people out hunting in the sugarcane. is one of the few license in florida to do that. what happens after you trap them? do you euthanize them humanely or what?

state of texas other than el paso county. in texas, the best we can figure out is in 2024, you have a population of about 2.6 million. so you can understand the math, the closest we can find is about a 30% offtake of harvest of those hogs per year. and you need a 66% harvest just to keep the population level. it's crazy. >> laura: people shooting them from helicopters with over unders, that usually does the trick. i'm not a big hunter, i support hunting. but this is ridiculous. ag web reports there has been an average -- to make a comparison they are, six fatal shark attacks worldwide every year. there are 20 fatal wild pig attacks. so derek, don't corner a pig. if it's between you and a pig in a small area, the pig can charge, correct? look at those little tasks. >> correct.
