kennedy: thank you so much for watching the show. you can follow his on kennedy nation and send us an e-mail anytime at fox business.com. ow, lou dobbs on fox business. lou: good evening, i am lou dobbs, the united states world powers and iran resuming nuclear talks in vienna, iran has 50 billion dollar reason to agree to a final deal with new report that obama state department is not ruling out giving iran a $50 billion signing bonus if it brokers an agreement. we take that up with john negroponte. and hillary clinton attacking herself. reportedly saying that our economy requires a quote toppling of wealthiest 1%, we will examine her queen of

hearts economic and poll -- populism . and a court ruling to fight california's historic drought. we learn today that the on again off again so-called talk between iran and the obama administration may result in president obama writing a check for $50 billion to the ayatollah, a signing bonus if you will for the islamic islam republic and the state department is not denying it. >> we have said sanction release will come after they take the steps, but there is ongoing relief. all details of what happens are negotiated. lou: so endless misadventures

of obama national security team go on. they try now to turn another page in their chronicles of inept diplomacy, joining us tonight, former director of national intelligence, 5 time ambassador, john negroponte, great to have you with us. >> thank you. lou: let's start with the matter of $50 billion signing bonus, lifting of sanctions this could not be much more preposterous could it? >> i'm note sure the details of this proposition but as a basic rule i would see that the most important leverage we have with iran is the fact of the sanctions. that is what got them to the negotiating table and kept them there. and you don't want to ease up on your leverage until you are sure that you are getting the other elements of agreement they signed up for. so i would go slow on that part, if i were in their

position. lou: and this administration seems to be taking the opposite view. go fast, keep details to themselves, don't build a national consensus for any grime, but act unilaterally. it is extraordinary in the way this deal is being negotiated given the import should there be an agreement between the two nations. >> there is a silver lining that i think that senate, foreign relations committee under leadership of senator worker did a good job of reaching and understanding how accord that have been reached will be subjected to congressional review. that was good, another point that i would make they would make to the administration, is that let's remember that even though you can talk about snap back provisions, once you lift a sanction, i think it becomes

harder than some people think that just reimpose them like that, you can't turn them on and off again just with a flick of the switch. lou: and vladimir putin reinforcing your point that in agreeing to sell to, ran 300 surface-to-air missiles, and air defense system, is that -- extraordinary that the to the would be profoundly conscious of the fact he can't snap back those sanctions as you put it he would lift so immediately if he does abide to the ayatollah's wishes. >> all this by way of saying lou, that iran is a very important country from the point of view of our foreign policy, not only the nuclear program, and its behavior, throughout the region, the concern, by its neighbors. particularly the sunni states in the region. so that issue uone way or

another is going to be with us for quite a long time to come. lou: you know, you say it will be with us for some time to come it seems like it has been with us for endlessly with on again-off again negotiations, missed deadlines and extended deadlines. president misrepresenting it on numerous occasions that judge to be two to three months about the program, but the energy secretary himself acknowledging they have 19,000 centrifuges working and working currently. not in advance we're talking about a deadline that goes to june and within that time frame, they could have a bomb. what sense does that make on the part of this administration? ambassador? >> i don't know all of the

technologies of these -- technologies particulars. but i'm concerned, 10 year ago our estimate is they were 10 years away from a bomb. that time span has been shortened substantially. this is an agreement to delay the development of a nuclear weapon and not pro prohibited. there is a lot to be talked about and a lot to be explained in the congressional process 92 it. lou: it is reactor sures reactor suring that congress has a role, the question is what that role is. let me turn if i may to the

aircraft carrier uss theodore roosevelt, and escorts including guided missile cruiser, and other ships in the near yemen. two statements by the administration from sources saying that the roosevelt and accompany ships were there to make certain that iran's cargo ships did not off load in aiden, weapons and supplies for houthi rebels, today state department saying they were only there to maintain open sea ways could and make certain there is no interference with those ships or any others in region. how can we be confronted with such contradiction from a dang dodge

that has move -- badge that administration. >> whether this aircraft carrier, and the vessels would be best suited for intercepting the weapons, i am not certain it is my understanding from people that i talked to that primary purpose of dismatching that aircraft carrier is to guarantee the passage of those waterways are let's remember that is the waterway that leads up to through the red sea to suez canal. lou: it is now turns out according to the administration, they are not to stop the weapons from getting to the houthi rebels on very same day that saudi arabians conclude their airstrike campaign, and effect of new mission is anticipate -- arctic lated by state department to

maintain open sea ways so they have passage with weapons. >> you got me confused there lou. i think we'll have to see tomorrow how they clarify the various staisms they statements they have made about this, but stopping of airstrikes by saudis i my understanding there is a feeling they have at least if not thwarted the houthi advances they have slowed down them enough there might be some hope of negotiations wean houthi rebels and their opponents, i think that reason for the pause in the bombing campaign, but i don't think that saudis are going to lose interest in the situation in yemen, this is a critical international security interest to them. lou: ambassador john negroponte thank you. >> thank you. lou: further development in

aftermath of administration's foreign policy embarrassment. a egyptian court sent morsi to prison overkilling of his demonstrators in front of his palace in 2012, the first sentence handed down in three trials that have been going on. since morsi was ousted and his muslim brotherhood in july of 2013, just a machine later president obama sent senator mccain and lindsey graham to cairo, their mission to try to persuade the president to include muslim brotherhood in the new government he formed. the senators were sent packing and they have not been back to cairo since. lou: we talked with the mother of navy seal mark lee the first sale seem to fall -- seal to

fall in ramadi iraq, she was upset that dempsey seemed to trivialize the fall of ramadi to the islamic state. >> i am disgusted, i am appalled. and i am a pretty even keel person. but there were tears that were coming down my cheeks, i felt like someone sucker punched me in the gut my son sacrifice does matter. lou: today we're happy to report that lee did receive a letter of an apology from the general, and phone call from chairman dempsey, she accepts that apology. >> we've seen a turn around to get an apology, that is part of what we were hoping to do here was to raise awareness. when our generals speak when anyone that is representing our military speaks out they need to make sure that their words are honoring the sacrifices

that are made over there. lou: we're coming right back. stay with us. >> coming up next, president obama demanding our court system support his amnesty fiat. one of the few in congress fighting the president's fiat is house judiciary committee bob goodlot he is joining us. >> and america's food is up ploy at risk, deadly bacteria, bird flu and drought conditions people

ship all kinds of things. but what if that thing is a few hundred thousand doses of flu vaccine. that need to be kept at 41 degrees. while being shipped to a country where it's 90 degrees. in the shade. sound hard? yeah. does that mean people in laos shouldn't get their vaccine?

we didn't think so. from figuring it out to getting it done, we're here to help. if you suffer from a dry mouth then you'll know how uncomfortable it can be. but did you know that the lack of saliva can also lead to tooth decay and bad breath? well, there is biotene specially formulated with moisturizers and lubricants... biotene can provide soothing relief and it helps keep your mouth healthy too.

biotene, for people who suffer from a dry mouth.

lou: breaking news now head of enforcement administration is stepping down. she has been under pressure to resign since we learned that the dea agents allegedly participated in in prostitute in colombia, she will retire mid next month. >> joining us now congressman bob goodlot chairman of house.

>> you judiciary committee your reaction? >> this is good news. it is sad the agency is in the state it is in. we held a hearing last week where inspector general reported on a number of problem with the responsibility of agents and their superior visors who are sometimes -- soup hersupervisors who are sometimes participating in these. i think this time for a change of command. lou: did not have power to 5 anybody or hold anyone accountable, we have watched

agency after agency whether internal revenue service leadership in in cases, i think i could put it that way corrupt, and in instances where parts of the agency are corrupt. i think corruption is a apt expresstion. what happened is not something that can be done, he or she hold accountable those who are charged with serving interest of this nation. >> absolutely, they can many of those things can be done right now and first of all let me say we should say it always when we talk about law enforcement officers, vast majority of them are dedicated proportionals who -- professionals who are trying to

do the right thing to enforce the laws of united states, in a hon honorable fashion. but the report has been e-- respect has been eroded. this goes to the top. that is the constitutional responsibility of all of the agents if the president and heads of agencies would focus on that we would be much safer and better off. lou: unfortunately you put that in form of a hypothetical, and it precisely correct to put in in a hypothetical. immigration and citizenship services that is a disaster of an agency. it has been dismaly led for at least two decades. it is inept.

and disfunctional now we have the admission by the cis it made a little mistake when it grabbed deferred departicipating to a man on 4 -- deportation to a man under under counts of murder what is going on. >> if the president would faithfuly execute the law focus on what the law says, and leave it to congress, put pressure on congress for that matter to do the right thing with regard to immigration reform in a step by step approach starting with enforcement, he could lead the way. but that is not what he has chosen to do, she has -- he has taken his pen and his phone and said i'm going to do it

myself. this is the product you get. thousands are people are less safe people are released back on streets. i think dollari there are 8,000 empty beds right now. lou: you know, you look at those polls of what people think of congress and president. the fact that we had for almost two years 4 bills that represented, you know i supported. as terrific basis foundation for reforming our immigration system and securing the border there has been no action by your leadership in republican party in the course of almost

two years american people look at republicans and realize they are gaining the sim and democrats are -- the system, and democrats doing it worse gaming the system, in a game of their own opening borders and what in the hell are the american people supposed to think? >> they should see a congress that takes action. i think that judiciary committee has shown the right -- >> oh, no, you are correct. i want to say this, have you taken great leadership within the committee. i am talking about john boehner and his leaders have done nothing to move that -- those bills through. >> we're pushing hard, and i talk with members on the floor every day who would like to see the bills brought to the floor those discussions are going on, it is my hope we will see the bills come to floor of the house so american people can see congress is acting

responsibly, and we're taking the right approach this -- to this problem that will then put more pressure on administration to show they can do the right thing as well, that is a tough thing to hope for, because they have not shown it for last several years. but we need to lead, not just complain about what they are not doing we need to show the right thing to do, it is to start with curing the problems of lack of ability of state and local law enforcement to be engaged in positive way. lou: let me ask you i take your point doesn't this just burn you that boehner with power and responsibility as leader has done nothing to advance what would be the foundation for immigration reform? >> we simply need to get all of our leadership to give us a signal the bills have been

marked up, they are ready to go to the floor i'm hopeful they will go to the floor and will go soon, and that will be best answer to your question. lou: all right and i have to say, i thought that was a good one. thank you. >> thank you. lou: bob goodlot. one of the goodguys, trying like the dickens to get something done. >> vote on our poll do you believe that obama administration about any part of their claims concerns their proposed iranian nuclear deal? cast your vote loudobbs.com, any part, just any part. >> up next president obama likes to talk about red lines he may have crossed one with the american people, my commentary coming up. >> and this diamond beyond that look at that, hope my wife doesn't see that.

lou: a few comments to the roosevelt, and escort ships following an iranian convoy. administration first told us that roosevelt and other ships were ordered to stop the vessels from delivering weapons and supplies to howtdy houthi rebels in yemen, there have been so many contradicts that most people find it believable that mr. obama would have his secretary of state in vienna carrying out what appears to be a give away negotiation with iran and have american ships and ierk ready aircraft and missiles ready to fire mile ofs into deck of the iranian ships.

port of aden now they say the ships there are to simply to keep the shipping lanes open. the feckic of such a mission would be to assure the iranians that the united states will will do rate no interferancy with no interdictions of their ship or cargo. so the effect of the newly announced mission is 180 degrees opposite that of the administration's original -- >> far fached, well as we reported saudi arabia today ended its airstrike campaign against yemen next step in the disclosed. the madness deepens the state department will not rule out giving iran up to a fast billion as a so-called signing bonus for agreeing to a nuclear deal. that details of some no one knows, that is right years of sanctions, again iran's economy, and now talk of a sign

a signing bonus $50 billion. wow ul be forgiven if you are among those in our audience who believe that president obama has again confounded himself confusing dip massie and policy with sport stars and agent representation. not a bad reward for having achieved a lot of -- god help us all. >> now quotation of the evening andrew jackson said, every good citizen makes every country honor his own and cherishes it at not only precious but sacred and willing to risk his life in its defense.

nuclear deal with them. you see yemen just as a small version of the confusion. lou: your thoughts? >> this is a region that makes no sense. it and i think we have conflicting roles 92 that is about what -- >> it is about oil,. lou: oil. >> be honest. lou: in yoam en. >>yemen. >> the coastline we're cautious about our role in yemen because of the coastline and military base. lou: i would think our new friends iran they would not nuke us or take our oil. >> no one knows who -- whose side we're on. it goes to strategic confusion of the this administration. and chaos in the region.

lou: a great thing that we reach points like this, where there seems to be incompetence, and bizarre behavior on part of the government the great thing we have an election coming up. >> oh, yeah. lou: right now hillary clinton seems to be leader, and it turns out she is being charged with pay for play corruption some i think she is in a trek position here -- a tricky position here. he said she has nuance understands of political art of distraction. lou: she is a piker by comparison to president obama. >> she has done an incredible job of this, this book, that it is written by a conservative

columnist, but these are valid arguments, if new york times can cut a deal with author then we havic to ta it more seriously, but i don't think she cares, she is looking to. lou: acknowledging that "new york times" has taken it seriously. >> i think that she is essentially hedging her bets hoping that you know voting population does not care about these things. lou: what do you make of it. >> we'll see what details or this supposed quid pro quo they are always more difficult to prove than allege. but at least this book, by serious, will add to my asthma of inside dealing and influence peddling that shrouds the clinton enterprise. lou: how much my asthma is generated when jeb bush goes before the koch brothers?

don't want subsidies or special favors who are for creating -- >> you are turning this to an issue about something it isn't it is about the unseemliness of political candidates in their office seeking favor and up on -- support. get out on the campaign trail and alike you want the middle class, to support you. >> can i pipe up about one positive thing. scott walker has been one republican who has been out there talking about wages in context of immigration hit by lift and now fellow republicans. lou: if you want to light up the aflcio and chamber of commerce at same take that is the way to do it talk sense about illegal immigration. >> your thoughts? >> you think on other side, i wish that democratic side had

an audition process, we have hillary clinton who is bees handed the money. lou: everyone knows. >> i think -- she is trying to my the progressive game. lou: she said she wants -- >> who is more -- the top? >> 1%? >> the clinton? >> that is like, 17 century french. >> get out the guillotine. lou: there is not a problem in the world you can't slice. >> thank you. lou: vote on our poll, do you believe administration about any part of their claim any part? >> bad news for you gentleman in market for a perfect diamond for your woman sotheby's about to auction off this diamond it could fetch up to $25 million.

penalized. >> there ought to be limitations for it. lou: folks elect governments to serve them. the people of california have been under liberal governments. they are so screwed up, i don't know if they can get out of the mess. water rationing. high unemployment rate. massive taxes. they are on the verge of being really screwed by their own indo lense and apathy. >> you can't be charging different rates to different people based on usage. lou: i'm glad to hear that i've heard about the marginal income tax rates that are different, and iejing can we try it? >> that's why you tax it. >> let's go to tulsa reserve deputy robert bates, 73 years

who is such the pierced soul he or she -- >> they got a college intern to write it. lou: that would explain some of it. what it doesn't explain is why the nypd has to pay attention to it. >> must be embarrassing to have to look at this. when most of them are out there doing a great job defending us. they really are. it's a great police force here. >> whoever wrote that should put on a police vest and patrol the streets. >> no, no, no. i don't want that person out there. if you really want to know what it's like to be a police officer. >> walk in their shoes see what the danger is like. these are judgment calls that are happening in seconds. lou: can we send a few mandatory guidelines to the justice department? >> that would be nice. lou: follow the constitution. take oath of office. make certain the constitution is in front of you. >> and don't be a jerk.
