10:25 pm
binding or racial. >> my commentary now on president's shameless effort to make the eric garner case about case. and blame garner -- and obama right-hand man reverend al sharpton, and mayor de blasio working just as hard, to push race as the motivates force in garner's death. but the president and the left wing activists who are trying to alittle bit garner's death va run into a major problem. garner family say he wasn't killeed because of race imof ray kind. >> i feel he was murdered unjustly, like, i don't feel like it is a black and white thing, honestly, in my opinion, i really don't feel like that. >> garner's daughter last week came to the same conclusion. saying race is not the issue.
10:26 pm
>> being that my father was black and the officers was white, this is different races but as far as the situation, i can't say really a block and white issue. >> it was -- a black and white issue it was about the officer's pride, about my father 6-4, and 350 pounds, he wanted to be you know, the top cop that brings this big man down. lou: in a interview tonight with black entertainment television, president obama not only maintains that race motivated that kills of garner, but expanding his view of racism as pers ipervasive in our society. >> this isn't going to be solved overnight, this is something that is deeply rooted in our society and history, but the two things that are going to allow to us solve it, number one, is understanding that we have made progress. and so, it is as painful as they
10:27 pm
are, we can't equate what is happening now with what was happening 50 years ago, second thing is, we have to be persistent, because progress is in steps. lou: mr. obama, on occasion can be outrage usually contra dec tree, and self righteous council this time to our youth. to equate now to a half century earlier then doing so calling for persistence. at what task he does not say, and talking likely thinks there is a latter day martin luther king, almost 6 years ago attorney general holder accused american z of being as he put it cowards, when it comes to race. but who are the cowards when this administration tries to hide behind race to slow. to blunt or avoid criticism of their failed policies, and
10:28 pm
judgments. >> attorney general saying there was as he put it some months ago racial an mouse in those opposeing obama's policy, for obama talked his way to job his holds, declaring there is not a liberal america, and a conservative america, there is the united state of of america. and americans bought his perceived call for unity, but a detective aid later, there is no evidence of his grand view in practice in action. instead. his divisive, skpeupb spireing as he talks about illegal immigration, amnesty and univision and to like minded be interists, and about deeply rooted racism, not an a national speech to all americans but to the largely black audience of b.e.t. and he has instead worse ern worsen ris
10:29 pm
race relations, a poll finds 53% of morning find race relations have worsened under president obama compared to 36% who said they would say about the same, and 9% who say i say they have n better under this president. >> mr. obama has chosen his path, it is regressive not progressive. a path that deverges from this country's and puts president on the wrong side of america's history. but he will not be first president that we have had to overcome as a nation,ing in we will be doing so again. now quotation of the evening from lengthtary news reporter peabody award winner elmer davis, who said, this republic was not established by cowards, and cowards will not preserve it we're coming right back. >> britain's future king pays a visit to america's imperial president, and the liberals

lou: 6 guantanamo bay detainees released to uruguay over the weekend, joining us. fox news crist or, jillian turner. these detainees, what is the united states, what is the president getting in exchange for 6 detainees who at least a third of expected to return to the fight? >> that is a great question. in response, i can only say it is evident we're not getting a lot. we're also all likelihood probably gearing up to exchange a significant amount of money with uruguayians, to me, the most error some fact -- worrisome fact, is the reports that secretary hagel had a request from the white house to release these detainees to uruguay for up to 10 months, it
10:45 pm
begs the question, why was he uneasy about this? because of bureaucratic reasons or because that releasing them constituted a threat to our national security. lou: and the betting money on the latter, as you know. turning to this report, this coming out of this by senate democrats on a interrogation, under the bush administration, through out on bush administration. 5 years old, what is -- is this pure politics? is there any national security purpose suffered by it. >> the question of politics is an interesting one because, as far as i can see, republicans and democrats are coming out on the same side of this issue. which is their voice concern. chairman of homeland security -- homeland intelligence committee is concerned, secretary hague sell concerned, and -- hagel is concerned, and intelligence and military are concerned, that is
10:46 pm
why we're seeing our embassies and combatant commands abroad or higher alert. lou: and just about everyone from the executive branch, as you say, violence will be the result, likely death, how can feinstein go ahead with this democratic document that assails our intelligence community in particular at a time am war. >> violence is one of the short-term threats. there are very really real dangerous longer term threats, most among these our cia analysts, and operatives who implicateed hire are going to be -- here going to feel tried, and judged without actually being there in the future, will be
10:47 pm
reluctance to go ahead and do what they need to do to protect the homeland, and american people. another really important potential consequence is our allies, countrys that have coordinated with us, previously in the war on terror, and now, in the antiisis coalition, you know, who based their actions on a certain degree of confidentiality with u.s., might also feel, you know, inhibited in the future, not willing to cooperate with us. lou: would you say this is san example of -- is an example of hillary clinton and her idea about. theseing with the en -- emthat theseing with enemy about that was an odd comment. i think that part of danger in an issue like this, is that politicizeing it, really gets -- bobscureed national challenges that we face that our
10:48 pm
intelligence community faces, i think that everyone on both sides needs to make an effort to step back from that. >> you are talking about democrats? >> on both sides, i think. >> democrats are pushing it. >> i mean, but democrats that are releasing the report. but i think that you know, a lot of people within the party are very upset at this move. >> jillian, thank you. >> thank you. lou: up next, attorney general holder looks to ban racial profiling. despite the fact that president bush did that more than a decade ago. what in the world is going on in this administration? we take it up here next.

10:53 pm
unthinkable, he condemned what is already unlawful, claiming he was making unlawful what is already unlawful but carveed out two exceptions, so if racial profiling which is not a police officer saying, okay witness said that perpetrate or was black we'll look for black people that is not racial profiling, it is a hunch on part of cops more than likely the defendant was black. we'll interrogate all of the black folks but eric holder said that is okay for tsa, which deals with mores have citizens than any morass peck of law enforcement. and the border patrol, if it is that bad, why do you allow over 100,000 federal cops, tsa and boarder patrol to use it? >> it does not even extend to state, county and local jurisdiction. >> no he does not have jurisdiction at this moment in time. >> so he stands in ebenezer

people who deserve so much beter from any president, let alone this president. lou: you know one of your prior guests i think michael goodwin, was saying that hillary clinton really needs barack obama's base. but he is making it very difficult for her to embrace them. his behavior is so irrational. lou: and just look at turn out in midterm elections, it was atrocious. as we look at obama administration. trying to eploit race. are there any constraints, any standing we have 20 states suing, on the issues on amnesty, economyive order -- executive order and conduct issues on part of this administration. who has as you folks of law say, standing here besides the american people who are being brutalizeed. >> a governor-elect greg abbott of texas, attorney general of texas eued federal government
