>> hillary clinton is not a perfect candidate -- byron york says a concession for juan williams. thanks for being with us. good night from las vegas. it's a critical time and we're trying to cover all the bases. now, here's lou dobbs. lou: good evening, everybody. we are coming to you live tonight from the mgm grand in las vegas, nevada, ahead of tomorrow's third and final presidential debate. i said tonight, here in las vegas it's a bright and sunny afternoon, and it is now exactly three weeks until the election and donald trump is working overtime to win. today, holding two rallies in colorado, and in a speech in colorado springs, the republican nominee took time to blast democrats and the mainstream liberal media for

doing their seemingly very best to rig this presidential election. >> the media as merely as it truly is, is just an extension of the clinton campaign. the press has created a rigged system, and poisoned the mind of so many of our voters. without the media and all of the other corrupt entities that have helped her along the way, she would be nothing. she would be nothing. she would be doing so badly. the system is also rigged by the donors giving hundreds of millions of dollars to crooked hillary clinton's campaign. look, bad system. lou: we'll also tonight be showing you how democratic operatives and the national liberal media have colluded to make hillary clinton the next president of the united states. all of that coming up here tonight. as for the former secretary of state, she has been in seclusion.

some say hiding from the public for the past five days preparing for tomorrow night's debate, and hillary clinton has gone radio silent as scandals, mounting scandals, yes, new scandals today threaten to derail her campaign altogether. both donald trump and congressional republicans are now pressuring the u.s. state department to fire one of clinton's closest and most trusted aides at the state department. that aide is undersecretary for management patrick kennedy. fbi documents released this week show he offered a bribe to the fbi during the clinton e-mail investigation. we'll have a full report for out fallout from those documents, coming up here tonight. and wikileaks today publishing more damaging e-mails from the clinton campaign despite efforts to stop the daily drip of documents and e-mails and

secretive speeches given by the nominee, wikileaks founder julian assange accusing secretary of state john kerry of personally intervening to ask ecuador to cut his internet connection at the ecuadorian embassy in london. the state department, however, denies any involvement in trying shut down julian assange. joining us tonight former reagan white house political director ed rollins, "the five" wall williams and the washington times monica crowley among our guests tonight. my special guest tonight is donald trump's good friend and business partner for two decades. las vegas casino magnate bill ruffin joins us, we'll be talking about donald trump and what in the world is going on in this absolutely amazing, fascinating and often bizarre presidential campaign. we begin with charges that hillary clinton's top aides

tried to negotiate a back room deal with the fbi, as the agency was investigating her e-mail scandal. president obama says the bribery accusations are not true, but the evidence is on the fbi website for all to see andsaf right now, we don't know who put that evidence on the fbi website, but as i said last night, whoever is responsible, we thank you. fox news chief intelligence correspondent catherine herridge has our report. >> reporter: at a press conference today, the president was drawn into allegations a state department executive wanted a back room deal on the clinton e-mail. >> some of the more sensational implications or appearances as you stated them, are based on actual events. >> reporter: but the heavily redacted files known as 302 show an fbi official describe the incident with patrick

kennedy one of secretary clinton's trusted lieutenants as a quid pro quo. they emphasize again today it never happened. kennedy wanted clinton e-mails downgraded to unclassified. and in exchange there was discussion of more overseas posts for fbi agents. >> an fbi 302 does not contain opinion work by the fbi. if somebody said that somebody offered me something for something else, and that's in the 302, that agent is going to say i am sure that's exactly what happened. >> reporter: kennedy pushed hard for classification changes to the clinton e-mails after congress issued a subpoena and retention order in march of 2015. >> trying to change the e-mails after march 4, 2015, would change or alter the evidence requested by congress. >> first of all, those documents were foia process not necessarily what we shared with congress. >> reporter: the fbi department shows career department personnel were, quote, suspicious of a special group

of employees brought into review the classification of clinton e-mails. some worked with david kendall, hillary clinton's longtime personal attorney. the fbi documents call it a shadow government. >> hillary clinton was out there trying get her former people at williams and connelly, her own attorneys to be the ones that made the determination on the documents. not the career professionals within the state department. that goes to intent and goes so far beyond what is reasonable in our expectation of how that state department should work. >> the state department's position is there was no contest? >> no conflict of interest. the mere fact of previously working at what is a very large law firm does not in and of itself constitute a conflict of interest. >> reporter: late today, the "washington post" published the first interview with brian mccauley who said he and kennedy agreed to do a favor for one another. when mccauley found out classified benghazi e-mail was

involved he turned kennedy down. one of the colleagues told investigators mccauley pressured him to change the e-mail to unclassified and relayed the conversation with kennedy as a quid pro quo. mccauley disputes that description, lou? lou: catherine herridge, thank you very much. the ecuadorian government in a statement to "lou dobbs tonight" admits it did cut the internet access of wikileaks co-founder julian assange. the ecuadorian government went onto say the move is temporary and they claim they were in no way pressured by washington. but experts tell fox news latino that the order was given to tilt the election in support of hillary clinton. ecuador's socialist president rafael correa has voiced support for clinton much he said recently i would like hillary to win.

ecuadorian spokesman in quito tells us it's not interfering with the american election and favors no candidate whatsoever. julian assange has been holed up in the ecuadorian embassy in london for four years. no word tonight when his full internet access will be restored. turning now to shocking proof of the large-scale voter fraud that donald trump has been warning about throughout his campaign. james o'keefe's project veritas today released the second video in its rigging the election series of reports that exposes the dark secrets of the democratic national committee and the clinton campaign itself. this video features democratic operative scott foval who admits democrats have been rigging elections for years. >> we did the exact same thing.

we manipulated the vote with money and action, not with laws. it's a very easy thing for republicans to say they're bussing people in. you know what? we've been bussing people in [ bleep ] for 50 years and we're not going to stop now. find a different way to do it. so i grew up with that idea. they used to bus people out to iowa. we need people out there, bus them out there. lou: that's not foval's only shocking statement. fox news chief washington correspondent james rosen has that part of the story. >> that's your version of reenfranchisement, in the line at a trump rally. >> reporter: in latest pair of videos, project veritas action, the controversial conservative group that use hidden cameras

to document alleged misconduct by progressive organizations targets the satellite group's orbiting the democratic national committee and the hillary clinton campaign. a key figure in the videos bob creamer founder and head of democracy partners, liberal political consulting firm who in the 90s plead guilty to two tax fraud counts. scott foval, national field director for americans united for change, where creamer is a general consultant. >> we would have connected directly with the dnc? >> yes. >> i am contracted with him, but i answer to the head of special events for the dnc, and the head of the special events on the political campaign. >> reporter: foval whose firing was announced late monday night is seen strike his hiring of paid agitators including the mentally ill to promote fistfights at trump rallies and role in circumventing federal

election laws that prevent contact between campaigns and super pacs like the priorities usa. >> but i guarantee [ bleep ] you that the people who run the super pacs all talk to each other and we and other people are the hubs of that communication. >> the thing that we have to watch is making sure there's a double blind between the actual campaign and the actual dnc and what we're doing. there's a double blind there. they can plausibly deny that they knew anything about it. >> reporter: when a chicago rally had to be shut down, it was the work of aaron minter who boasted their role in the veritas videos. creamer was asked if the democratic nominee knows about the evers of him and his crew.

>> they tell hillary what's going on? >> yeah. >> the campaign paid the dnc, the dnc paid the partners and the partners paid the foval group, the foval group executes it. >> reporter: veritas purported to capture a lawyer a strategist for bernie sanders and founder of the dream action coalition acknowledging his role in voter fraud. donald trump referenced the videos during a rally in colorado. >> the protesters are paid a lot of money by the dnc, and kept saying i wonder why those people are here, because they never seem to have much on their mind other than stand up and protest. and yesterday it came out but it was barely covered by the media, but it's all over the internet. they were busted. >> reporter: it is true no mainstream media outlet reported on the veritas videos

but conservatives deeply opposed to trump call their contents troubling. >> james o'keefe is kind of a guerrilla fighter when it comes to new journalism. democrats are going to search for evidence that this was selectively edited, that this was the work of an activist. >> reporter: that said, it's very difficult to watch this video and not conclude that these people are hang themselves with their own word. the clinton campaign did not respond to request for comment. the federal election commission told me it has not received complaints in conviction this. bob creamer is stepping back from campaign work so as not to become a distraction. interim democratic national

chair donna brazile calls o'keefe a convicted criminal with a history of doctoring video to advance his ideological agenda. o'keefe pleaded guilty enter toing a federal property specifically the offices of senator mary landrieu under false pretenses trying to record material there. lastly cesar vargas, the lawyer seen in the videos discussing illegal activities could not immediately be reached for comment. lou? lou: james, thank you very much. james rosen reporting. as a result of the o'keefe videos, christian adams, the past the public interest legal foundation has now filed a legal complaint with the federal election commission. adams telling fox news --

coming up next -- donald trump says hillary clinton's e-mail scandal is much worse than watergate. >> this is collusion between the fbi, department of justice and the state department to try and make hillary clinton look like an innocent person when she's guilty of very high crimes. lou: and joining me next, monica crowley and charlie hurt. we'll take up all of the corruption and collusion occurring on the campaign trail, adding even more interest to this year's fascinating presidential campaign. we're live from las vegas. much more straight ahead.

debate tomorrow evening. new "fox news poll"s out tonight. these new polls show hillary clinton maintaining her lead over donald trump, but clinton's lead is under some pressure. she's leading trump by six points, 45-39 in the four-way race, she was leading by 7 last week. in the head-to-head, clinton has a 7-point advantage, 49-42, the good news from trump comes from independent voters in the internals of this poll. trump leading clinton now by seven points among independents, 38-31. and as i said, tomorrow night the all-important third and final presidential debate. joining us washington times, online opinion editor, fox news contributor, monica crowley, and washington times staff writer charlie hurt, both are fox news contributors and both are certainly welcome here in

las vegas. >> hi, lou. >> thanks for having us. lou: monica, start with everything that donald trump has said about rigged is just magic coming true as we come into the final leg of this presidential campaign. >> and that's been one of his core themes throughout the campaign that has gotten enormous traction, even before we saw the wikileaks disclosures and before we got the latest report of the fbi documents that show collusion to obstruct justice and that her team was being tipped off to the process of the fbi investigation. bernie sanders, during the democr talking about the corrupt, rigged process. he got traction on the far left with that. i think american of all ideological stripes understand there is something rotten not in the state of denmark but the state of washington, d.c. >> charlie, they have the evidence in front of them now. the o'keefe tapes, the project veritas video, i mean that is

the most damning thing that one could imagine in terms of electoral fraud, and it is acted, pervasive, followed by two weeks of the work of the pew research folks, 18 million questionable registrations, four million, arguably dead, i don't know how they're going to settle that. >> arguably? lou: but the reality is we have a mess on our hands and people keep asking donald trump if he's going to honor the result of the election. i have to be honest, i couldn't say that if he were in his place. >> as the media wrings their hands about it using the word rigged all the time. you look at newspaper and they're declaring he lost the election. if that doesn't feed into the notion that it is rigged, i don't know what does. the other thing, we've been talking about this for a decade or more, talking about the

voter i.d. laws which democrats strenuously oppose, and then talk about their desire to drive illegal immigration into this country and turn them into voters. so is it rigged? not rigged? i don't know, i don't trust any of those people on that side on that issue because they made it so clear they want to change the electorate and take power away from the people. lou: you are two of the brightest journalists working in this country. >> she is. lou: as such, you're looking at the pew research material. you're looking at the report of four million people who are dead, some irregularity in registration, you're looking at concerted effort on the part of this administration, taking in $30 million to register illegal immigrants ostensibly. is this rigged or is this not, and if that isn't enough evidence for the two of you, what would it take? >> can i say, i worked for

president nixon, the 1960 election was pivotal in terms of the democrats' efforts to steal a presidential election. president nixon and i used to talk about this all the time. voter fraud that the democrats on behalf of john f. kennedy carried out was extreme in cook county and -- lou: i'm asking you about in the context of the evidence that it's there? >> the good of this over the last couple of decades and have it down to an art and science. everything that you are seeing now is proof that they've gotten extraordinary at this. lou: there's another way to look at this, charlie, the republicans are chumps. they're absolute stooges and haven't got the street smarts to get out of -- >> i didn't know that was even in question. but no, i don't have any real particular faith in any of this because of the things that you see, and you know the shenanigans that these democrats have been very, very committed to pulling.

lou: the national liberal media providing a close field. there is no accountability, there is complicity. >> and the response is a handful, there hainedful there, that's a handful of people whose lost, whose votes have been canceled out. shoe that not shocking? . >> it's ideological. they're not in love with hillary clinton but in love with the ideological. lou: is he making progress now? >> trump is, we're going to see reversal, if he can have the comeback performance tomorrow night like he did in the second debate. >> he has to make headway tomorrow night. lou: charlie, monica. thank you very much. >> thanks, lou. lou: on wall street today, stocks rebounded. the dow industrials up 76, the s&p up 13 and the nasdaq rose 44 point. volume on the big board 3.1 billion shares and believe it or not increase in volume over yesterday. a reminder to listen to my reports three times a day coast-to-coast on the salem

radio network, and now las vegas casino magnate phil ruffin says donald trump's word is his bond. >> if donald tell you something, put it in the bank. he's been my partner and friend, believe and me, his handshake is better than any contractul ever write. [cheers] >> we're going to talk with donald trump's friend and business partner. phil ruffin joins me here next, as we continue our broadcast from the mgm grand in las vegas. this man creates software, used by this bank,

to protect this customer,

who lives here and flies to hong kong, to visit this company that makes smart phones, used by this vice president, this little kid, oops, and this obstetrician, who works across the street from this man, who creates software. they all have insurance crafted personally for them. not just coverage, craftsmanship. not just insured. chubb insured.

. lou: we are coming to you live from the mgm grand here in las vegas, nevada, and joining me now one of las vegas' favorite

sons, casino magnate phil ruffin, owner of the treasure island resort and casino, also a longtime business partner with donald trump, they co-own the donald trump international tower here in las vegas. >> good afternoon. lou: this has to be a wonderment for you watching your friend run for president and to go through the last almost year and a half in the -- i guess there is no other way to say it, the damnedest presidential campaign in american history. >> you know, lou, i told him not to run. don't do this, it will tear you up. i said why are you doing it? you have everything in the world. he said country's broken, and i can fix it. so that's his whole thing. lou: he had thought about this for sometime over the course of the years, hadn't he? >> yes, he has. he's flirted with it.

lou: he's chewed on it, as it gnawed at him. and as we watch what's happening, i have to say to you, you know, what's -- it looks like he may have had a point there. he set the agenda throughout this campaign. this is just an absolute statement of fact. he came into this campaign, he started talking about unfair trade agreements, illegal immigration, border security, talking about rebalancing our geopolitical and strategic assets whether it's nato or whether it's our role in the world. i mean, $20 trillion in debt. every one of those issues he pushed to the forefront, and it wouldn't have happened if he hadn't have jumped in, would it? >> you and i agree with that. lou: i don't think i can run from that. i absolutely agree. >> open borders, the debt, 20 trillion in debt. he's going to work on all that.

he's a businessman and he's never run for office before. this is a complete surprise to him. he did not think the media would jump on him like that and mischaracterize who he is. i know donald 20 years, he was the best man at my wedding 10 years ago. donald has never said one racist comment at all. donald is not a racist. and we've been through all kinds of things. nothing, that's a false thing. they accuse him of doing business in russia. he hasn't spent a dime in russia. i tell you that or i'd have been a part of it, and they haven't loaned him any money. that's pure fabrication where they get this stuff. lou: and this orchestrated attack. i've seen orchestrated attacks in a presidential election. i've never seen anything approach this or by substantial fractions. >> no. lou: and how do you react to these attacks when you, as a

friend, see him being attacked about his relationship with women or his behavior? >> i hate it. you know, my wife had the miss universe franchise for the ukraine. we'd sit with donald on three chairs, for 12 years, you have to pageant. hundreds of the most beautiful women in the world. it ends. we go to the spin room, and the girls flock around him, they want to touch him, they want autographs. lou: we don't want to get any women in trouble here. >> no, i don't know. but donald does all that and treats them so nice, he treats them courteously, and then guess what he does, an hour later. he leaves, goes right home. lou: it's been tough to watch for everybody, even those not close to the trump family, to donald, but anyone who watches what the national media, this

clinton cartel has done, it has been an extraordinary and vicious vilification because this is the way the clintons win, and they're very good at it. >> wow, it surprised me that they were that strong. lou: he going to win? >> are they going to win? lou: is donald going to win? >> i think there's a hidden voter out there somewhere. if he does well in the debates. we got to get closer, he's maybe four, five points behind. got to win the key states, as you know, lou. he's got a couple weeks. 22 days i guess. lou: who's counting? three weeks. >> a chance. he's a tough guy. lou: we hadn't noticed that about him. >> i've never seen anybody work so hard, and he does it in his private life, too. the guy works 20 hours a day, never sleeps. lou: i tell you one thing, he sure as heck hasn't been outworked by a single candidate. he faced 16 in the primary and

hillary clinton in the general. phil ruffin, good to have you with us, phil ruffin, good to see and you all that you've accomplished, congratulations and look forward to seeing you soon. >> thank you. lou: up next, donald trump is warning about large scale voter fraud in this election. >> people that have died ten years ago are still voting. illegal immigrants are voting. so many cities are corrupt in voter fraud is very, very common. lou: ed rollins joins me to talk about the issue and what it could mean for donald trump and hillary clinton on november 8th. stay with us, we're coming to you live from the mgm grand here in sunny, beautiful las vegas, nevada. afoot and light-hearted i take to the open road. healthy, free, the world before me,

the long brown path before me leading wherever i choose. the east and the west are mine. the north and the south are mine. all seems beautiful to me.

. lou: growing concerns about voter fraud in the upcoming presidential election. as we reported to you here tonight, a pew research report shows that one in eight voter registration in this country are, quote, significantly inaccurate or no longer valid. one in eight! that amounts to 18 million people. also another 4 million people ineligible or dead voters on the rolls.

and joining me now former reagan white house political director, republican strategist, great america pac strategist, ed rollins, ed, good to have you with us tonight. >> thank you. lou: have you handled a lot of campaigns and worked a lot of elections. these numbers. when donald trump says the selection rigged, that's an understatement, it appears to me when i look at the pew research numbers, four million dead or invalid registrations? >> there is no question you need to basically have a system that purges people after they pass on, but it's a very difficult task, and i think what's very important, lou, is not to make -- i'm having a hard time with a word here, to make this election in most cases is honest and decent. and secretary of state and county clerks and everybody worries about the things you're

talking about -- because of four million people are dead. there is no evidence four million people vote and half may be republicans. you don't know who's dead or not dead. you have to scrutinize, don't legitimize the election -- lou: and i've got to take exception to that. >> take exception to it. show me evidence of where this is occurring? . lou: here's where i want to -- you want to explain the 18 million people? four million dead? i'm talking about right now a federal program with $30 million behind it to register people who have just crossed the border from mexico for crying out loud. ed, we've got to take this seriously. >> i'm not arguing about not taking it seriously. there is no evidence at this point in time. there is a $30 million program. no one can walk in, no one has voted yet, they haven't by absentee ballot and walk in and

say you are not going to stop in advance. the two parties have to protect their vote and they do, and secretaries of state -- lou: let me add a couple of thing fis may for your consideration. one is the department of homeland security wants to take responsibility for these elections, wants to be a, if you will, supervising them because of the external threats when there appear to be as many internal threats to the elections. i have great faith in secretaries of state and volunteers all over the country. but the honor system in this country and electoral system is no longer valid. we have moved way beyond that and i'm afraid, given electronic voting, all of the issues that we've got, we've got an immense problem here, ed. none of this did i want to get down this deep in. i wanted to ask but the fact we're watching collusion and corruption on a massive scale in washington, d.c. have you ever seen the like?

>> no, i'll certainly confirm that. i just think -- first of all, i'd be against homeland security running national elections in this country. this has been a state right forever and you have to do a constitutional amendment which takes three-quarters of the congress to vote for that and two-thirds of the congress. that isn't going to happen. you got to fix it at the state and county level. lou: this becomes an academic-level discussion. i like the more proximate, that is in point of fact, you have documents of interviews with federal bureau of investigation agents and officials in which they are being asked by patrick kennedy of the state department for a quid pro quo. he was offering a bribe for key postings to various parts of the world. what do you make of it? >> i think if they can prove, that that's outrageous, at the end of the day, when you get in

there, this was a document which i assume was in the subpoena to the congress and to alter that document is an obstruction of justice. that's separate, different. i'm all for that. but i just think the key thing here, the drumbeat on making this election not legal is doing a great disservice to a lot of americans who are going to vote, win by a landslide, that's the key. >> i think you're right about that, and i would suggest that and recommend it to any candidate, following ed rollins's good advice and counsel. thanks for being with us, appreciate it. >> thank you. lou: up next, donald trump says it's time to drain the sloth in washington. conservative commentator niger innis joins me next, we're live from las vegas. we've got a lot more straight ahead. stay with us. i don't know that anyone could have imagined that on a beautiful october evening in america, we would be contending with the issues we do in this

presidential campaign. stay with us, we're coming right back. guess what guys, i switched to sprint. sprint? i'm hearing good things about the network. all the networks are great now. we're talking within a 1% difference in reliability of each other. and, sprint saves you 50% on most current national carrier rates. save money on your phone bill, invest it in your small business. wouldn't you love more customers? i would definitely love some new customers. sprint will help you add customers and cut your costs. switch your business to sprint and save 50% on most current verizon, at&t and t-mobile rates. don't let a 1% difference cost you twice as much. whoooo! for people with hearing loss, visit sprintrelay.com. recengrand prix race cars-benz made history when it sold for a record price of just under $30 million. and now, another mercedes-benz makes history selling at just over $30,000. and to think this one actually has a surround-sound stereo. the 2016 cla. lease the cla250 for $299 a month at your local mercedes-benz dealer.

. lou: joining me here in las vegas is niger innis, and behind us, i was keeping time there with the music, national

spokesperson for the congress on racial equality, niger innis and chairman of the tea party forward. great to have you here. >> good to see you. lou: the music died as i introduced you. what do you make of this? i mean, we are looking at in the "fox news poll" now six-point margin between these two. donald trump has been hit by everything. it has been blistering fire from all directions, within the party, lack of support, everyone trying to kill the man, and here he is. three weeks away. >> he is very much in the game, lou, and, you know, what i imagine is that he must feel like little david against five goliaths, not just one, and somehow, there is this loyal contingency that is not going to go away and hillary seems not able to break above 47, 48%, so i still think that donald trump has got a legitimate shot at this.

lou: he's a little farther that 50% than she is. what does all of this portend? >> i think there are a lot of americans that are quietly telling pollsters that they're not necessarily voting for donald trump, but when they get into the voting booth, they're going to do the right thing. lou: and the right thing in this instance is not to, well, have the state department try to bribe the fbi, the right thing is to answer that phone at 3:00 a.m.? you know the question i have here is what makes hillary clinton qualified to be president of the united states? [laughter] >> it's a very serious question. what is her signature achievement? >> married to bill clinton, i suppose, if that is an achievement. and the bangup job she did with benghazi as secretary of state, i suppose. lou: without even getting into a debate or rebuttals on the thing. i cannot find that one thing that says that the american people have got to have another clinton in the white house. >> well, i think what the

american people have is a unique opportunity for any group of people, be it ancient greeks or ancient romans that started off into a democracy and evolved into a corrupt dictatorship. we have the opportunity to stop it before it comes into fruition. lou: very quickly, i've got to wrap here. did you think the corruption was this widespread and profound? >> i had no idea the corruption was this widespread, and the pay-to-play and consultant class, et cetera. we can stop it, we have the opportunity. lou: on november 8th. >> november 8th. let's do it. lou: niger innis, thank you very much. >> thank you, lou. lou: we'll tell you about donald trump outworking hillary clinton. it's not even close as they head into the final debate. we'll be right back. at old dominion,

like it was built on a swamp and stayed so. >> and right now it's helping donald trump. there is no doubt you have all this news about this alleged quid pro quo. it brings -- lou: a bribe, right? >> the good thing by the from trump's point of view, one, it's a real story, and two it's not talking about those women who dominated the last self days. hillary's email problems come roaring back. it never goes away. >> she is in real trouble here, isn't she? >> no. i like hearing it from you guys. when you look at the numbers, they are so hard. there is only one number. it was 7 a week ago. but here is the thing we are

vote. tomorrow she'd lead by 6 percentage points. lou: the number of attacks against donald trump in the area you described has been the most vicious villainization i have ever seen and i have been covering it it since 1976. >> reporters are trying to redefine their roles because they say he lies so many they have to treat him different from other candidates. lou: the post giving four pinocchios to hillary clinton for lying on trying to hang the auto bailout on donald trump, saying he wanted to let them go.
