7:05 pm
supreme allied commander admiral james stavritos. we have a clear response on the obama administration, the fall of ramadi is not a big deal, it is a big deal? but overall strategy is working when we have watched mozelle -- mosul and anbar province now ramadi fall. this gets worse and worse what is to be done? >> lou, i think that fall of ramadi is clearly a defeat. it not the end of the story. but the strategy is not working. so we need to arm up two or three things, we have to get more weapons in hands of peshmerga in north to fight and arm up bombing campaign in the west and go after the logistics and the intelligence centers of
7:06 pm
the islamic state. in terms of the iraqi security forces they have been a disaster. our best shot there is to increase the number of trainers that we have there. so probably go from 3,000 to maybe 5,000 or 6,000 trainers. nothing compared to 150,000 troops we had in iraq at one time, it could stiff en the iraqi security force. and more of the raid that was very successful taking all the cfo, if you will, of the islamic state. and we have to use cyber go after the islamic state in the cyber world. and kinetically. we bring thosing it we have a strategy, but what is happening now is not working. lou: and admiral what you say and i am sure correct. when you say we, i assume that
7:07 pm
would imply also president of the united states, and he is the only one making the decision, clearly unwillingly to engage against an enemy he said he would degrade and destroy. we know that not to be the case no matter what he said. what does he intend as best you can divine? >> i think he is about to receive an enormous amount of pressure from sunni states in the region, our ally, saudi arabia gulf states, bahrain and et cetera. who are going to be saying look, the iranians are rolling we got this islamic state challenge in front of us, he will get diplomatic pressure on this side. i think we're here is -- we're here is more than just u.s., we have to turkey and jordan, and left rang theleverage the sunni states
7:08 pm
against the islamic state the sunni derivative, because the big threat is really coming, and that is iran. lou: iran, a clear and press an present danger on the u.s. yet we're negotiating in what is an abysmal agreement at containing their nuclear ambition. at the same time the islamic state is driving forward successfully against this half hearted -- by the president. there is one conclusion to this, is there not? if remaintain the status quo? >> i agree real challenge that is coming as i mentioned is iran. what worries me about this deal
7:09 pm
with iran. i am skeptical we'll get it done, but if we do and sanctions come off the flow of resources real dollars maybe $100 billion of additional gdp going into iran very quickly that will turn to finances for hezbollah and other terrorist groups that will fuel iranian imperial ambitions that is why saudis and other leading sunni states are concerned about this deal, so buckle up in the middle east. lou: let me ask you we talk about the ineptitude. inadequacy of strategy, lack of strategy on the part of this administration. at some point it becomes madness itself. this is irrational what shaping right now in our foreign policy, is it not? >> well, we need to do is go region by region in the world come up with a coherent plan in
7:10 pm
each area, starting with the middle east, but also in the pacific where we see china building artificial islands in middle of south china sea. a coherent strategy for latin america and caribbean we're trying to sort out colombia and a continuing problem in venezuela. we need a strategy and put it text in to a -- put it together into a global approach we have not seen that. lou: thank you. thank you very much. >> thank you lou. lou: turning to domestic politics now, new york city police commission irbil erbil bratton -- commissioner bill bratton

answering questions, hillary clinton answered questions today from the press. before today she had only answered 7 questions, the last time was 28 days ago. today she answereded -- 6 more questions. >> i am so proud of the foundation, i am proud of the work it has done, it is doing. it attracted donations from people organizations from the world. and i think that just goes to show that people are very supportive of the life saving and live changing work it has done. lou: what is a person with $100 million net worth to do, she attacked the rich. >> i think that most americans understand that the deck is stacked for those at the top, i am running a campaign that is stating we want to reshuffle the deck. lou: she touched on her e-mail
7:17 pm
scandal, news that a federal judge ordered state department to release thousands of her e-mails on a rolling basis. >> i have said, i want those e-mails out. nobody has a bigger interest in getting them released than i do. i respect the state department, they have their process they do for everybody, but anything they might do to expedite the process i support. lou: to avid any misunderstanding. clinton was referring to the e-mails that might have been on a tate department server -- state department server had they been saved by the state department, which they were not. not the e-mail on her private server. that is beyond the reach of law or public's right to know. >> do you regret deleting 32,000 other e-mails?
7:18 pm
lou: we don't know whether she does regret it, she declined to answer. >> joining us now jay chief council for american center for law and justice and author of a brand-new book, "undemocratic"." book focusing on the federal pure crease -- bureaucracy. you just listened to this democratic nominee waving her hand over the unwashed press before her. and she had a actually meet all of the questions she had answered. but she came one short now answered 13. can this persist in a democratic
7:19 pm
constitutional republic? >> you hit the key word, that is a consititutionalal republic, the answer is, of course, not. hoping that scandal will go away. fact this state department much like the internal revenue service has a thing with e-mails, the thing is, hide them, delete them, destroy them, do not let home be discoverable. that is when irs did in that scandal, and what hillary clinton and state department allowed to happen, the question i keep asking, when people receive an e-mail from hillary clinton, did they not realize she was not using a state department. gov e-mail address? how is it so hard to figure out. but, the release of the e-mails
7:20 pm
will be as quick as irs's release of e-mail, that has been two years. lou: and watching a reputation, a declaration of values on part of the pure crease, whether the -- bureaucracy whether the irs or epa. this goes on. abureaucracy indifferent to law and the public interest and aligned with the democratic leaders, state department is a secondary government on to itself. >> they are not elected they are not accountable. you have a situation with our constitution right now this is not supposed to happen. we have three branches of government we're supposed to have checks and balances.
7:21 pm
the fact is that the most powerful branch of the government is two blocks from the white house around corner from capitol that is the agency. about we like it or not we right now have a unelected unaccountable bureaucracy that is passing more rules and regulation than congress. they are in lockstep with the administration that is the danger. we're at that tipping point. lou: that power becomes on, pressive. -- opsso pressive. quickly before we out of time, urging fifth circuit court of appeals to over 3 throw the
7:22 pm
amnesty fiat, if you will. and congress pushing part of the contusional authority in the house that is pushing article 1 second 8 powers over trade senate requiring two-thirds vote to approve a treaty, they are both dispensing with their constitutional power and a court argue that president is abusing the constitutional power to their detriment make sense of that. >> the inconsistency of our elected representatives, but more than that, the malfunction of our checks and balances. they will say that president was overreaching making that executive amnesty decision. i believe it will be decided by supreme court of united states
7:23 pm
and you are right politics are overriding the constitution. and that is dangerous for all citizens right left, and center. lou: do you think that circuit court of appeals made admonish the republicans and say something like you know, reserve your constitutional powers, our framers had that check and balance in full view and focus? >> you -- it is always hard to predict these things. i am optimistic that the fifth circuit will say congress cannot be ignored. impatient presidents do not get to change the law on their own. the constitution requires they are put forward by congress, not just the president. we'll find out in a couple of months. lou: thank you jay. we have seen he has made certainly thinks he can do it
7:24 pm
because he has done it. book "undemocratic." lou: and vote on our poll, do you believe that president's tweet regards the meeting with his national security team was perhaps a few days late given the fall of ramadi? cast your vote at loudobbs.com. lou: we learn more about the circumstances that led up to the biker gang blood bath in keiko techs -- in waco, texas. there was a warning that there was rising tension among the motorcycle gangs as for what started this shootout, police say their initial investigation suggestions if is a result of a turf war that was set up when a biker gang showed up to a gather of rival biker gangs. and there is also a possibly it may have started with a simple

7:31 pm
the current approach is not working. >> we know hope is not a strategy the president's plan not working. it is time to come up with a real overarching strategy to defeat the ongoing terrorist threat. lou: even washington post editorial board is awakening from its all but slumber. slams his lack of strategy. editorial board wrote this in morning edition saying, there was hope that mr. obama's half measures might be enough to blunt islamic state advances in iraq. with the stunning fall of ramadi sunday that modest optimism is questionable. it is mr. obama's unwillingness to match means to strategy that threatens to prolong this war.

washington post is beginning to realize, that half baked presidential political blather is not a substitute for knowledge, values, vision, and judgment. and consequences of bad foreign policy decisions or failure to make decisions do not change just because you close our eyes. white house today admitted what a pentagon spokesman just yesterday, not that the fall of ramadi is a setback. but not completely unfettered, the white house still mountains the overall strategy is a success. and a day after the islamic state ramadi, pentagon last friday offers this assessment on its web site, strategy to defeat isil is working. it was two days later that is yesterday, when islamic state over ran ramadi.
7:33 pm
president's strategy has resulted in the islamic state victories in cities of ramadi, mousemosul and fallujah just to name a few. and the radical islamist terrorists are on the move tonight. mr. obama's goal he said was to degrade and destroy the islamic state. his rhetoric notwithstanding congressional republicans were reluctance to exceed to his request to approve military force against the islamic state because they declared he has no strategy. whatever his true intent. president obama never set out to destroy them. whatever president obama's legacy, it will be neither
