tv   Lou Dobbs Tonight  FOX Business  September 18, 2017 4:00am-5:00am EDT

4:00 am
>> lou: good evening, everybody. breaking news, north korea tonight fired a missile. this missile traveling 2300 miles east from pyongyang. japanese media reports that missile flew over yap jap where authorities warned resident to take shelter and the threat from north to sink japan with a nuclear weapon. the north corn korea launched 23 missiles. and we'll bring you developments in the broadcast and we expect
4:01 am
to learn far more about the 23rd missile launch by the north koreans. we are following developments from the trump administration. democratic and trying to drive a wedge between the base. the obstruction of speaker paul ryan and mcconnell compel would the president to move his agenda ford across the aisle and we are witnessing a worsening between the conflict of the president of the united states and the chamber of commerce and business roundtable and establishment that president trump ran against. gop leadership is indifferent to
4:02 am
casulties and middle class and small business that result from the conflict. our president's counsellors and advisors did not guide him well and mr. trump isolated with the departure with the aides who were at his side throughout the presidency and anti- establishment candidate president trump has very few if no friends at all in the washington swamp and very few friends in the west wing. white house. making it sure that they fail in the efforts to subvert the president's issues and enforce immigration law and epiact make america great again. >> we will only do it if we get
4:03 am
extreme security and everything that goes along with surveillance and we have to have the wall. if we don't have the wall we are doing nothing. >> reporter: the president in surveying florida hurricane, said the wall would be built. and have daca had sparked a major fire storm back in washington. the associated press reported that democrats reported that there was a deal on daca and no wall. that was iowa republican who wrote. if ap- correct the base is blown up and no promise is credible. but the president said the apgot
4:04 am
it wrong. massive border security would have to be collected. and tweeting. does anybody want to throw out good and accomplished young people and some serving in the military, really? party leaders had differing viewing on how the conversation played out on daca between trump and pelosi and schumer and democrats revelled in the intraparty fight. >> details will matter, but it was a very, very president step to the president to commit to daca without inclusion or debate on the board wall. >> there is no agreement and the president and chief of staff call would me from air force one and discussed what was discussed
4:05 am
and it was a discussion and not an agreement or negotiation. >> we will break the cycle of amnesty and illegal immigration. there will be no amnesty. and candidate donald trump made the border wall his top priority. this was to the delight of his many supporters. he vowed today. >> there will be no amnesty. lou, the white house insists the conversation of daca and dreamers or even scientificly the border wall will be flushed out by law maker and making the conversation that the president had with democratic leaders wednesday night a prelude. >> lou: thank you very much.
4:06 am
kevin cork from the white house. joining me to discuss the president's white house dinner with the democratic leader and the fate of unconstitutional daca policy and 800000 dreamer and 4 million associated relatives who might have an opportunity to cross the opportunity as well or remain this side of the border and whether the obstructionist republican leader drove president trump in the arms of the democrats with no mans to help the president build his wall or agenda. ed rollins, who is chief political advisor to the house republican leadership and dean himself with the new york post. and michael goodwin are fox news contractor and great americans. michael, start with you tonight. the president started a fire
4:07 am
storm on the social media and discussions of the agreement as senator chuck schumer styled it. i love schumer is out pushing what happened in a meeting before the president can address what happened. >> i think the next time the president has dinner with the democrats he might bring a food tester. last week, but this week he's getting too far out there making a deal and his back tracking today on what he agreed to and putting out several different statements and tweets, i am not sure what they agreed to at this moment and where the wall stands. >> if you are sitting down with
4:08 am
democrats, what do you get back in return. are you having a tax or health care. will schumer give him to get the health care and will pelosi support the tax bill. if not he shouldn't discuss with them. my issue here, the white house staff, the big story jared kushner is meeting with how to get prisoners back in the society. that shouldn't be in the white house. that should be in the department of labor. cohenis meeting with the u.n. who wants to meet with the environmental platform. the president ought to have his team twisting arms to get the tax bill through and if he doesn't do that the rest doesn't matter. >> lou: i am following two points and i am correct.
4:09 am
following that. what is the chief of staff doing that. why is he permitting cohenand kushner to take on the initiatives if the president were not in florida with the first lady meeting with the victims of hurricane irma and asseming damage. it is extraordinary to me departure from what normally would happen in a white house? >> the events speak to a break down or train wreck that i can't make sense of. i said recent leap i thought was trump was doing well and kelly had brought upifying messaging and the last 24 hour seem like a reversal in a lot of ways. ed's point of not getting anything. the kindest thing you can say he
4:10 am
wants to get daca out of the way for taxes. if you are not making a good bargain, then you are creating new problems down the road. >> lou: the president as paul ryan points out knows that the negotiation will take place in part with the republican leadership whether it is the speaker's office or leadership office. all of that has to happen with the majority party and the declaration of schumer, and the president may agree on which way the wind is blowing. it is interesting the democrats and left winning are trying to drive a wedge between the president and his base and paul ryan and the chamber of commerce and the business roundtable. >> he's going to change the town
4:11 am
by winning victories, i look@'86 immigration bill. we promise that they would give more border security. and let all of the illegals and we did nothing. >> lou: there is no guarantee that is offered by chuck schumer who is bereef of integrity. i can't understand why anyone would try such a partis apto enter into a quote unquote finite. >> the wall is so essential. is it the symbolical base or manifest promise perceived by
4:12 am
the base. >> to the base it is it a promise. and everybody else it is symbolic. but the base it matters more than anything else. >> it is something we need to secure that border. >> lou: the remarkable thing here, the president in terms of illegal immigration, but addressing that border, is where the most and majority of marijuana and methamphetamines, and cocaine and heroin, this is where they come into the country. and he's the only candidate of 17 of them and then in the general election to deal with the issue of what drugs are doing to the country. illegal drugs. >> he's called in to doubt his own commitment to it. i think that is it a major mistake. >> lou: it is a major mistake
4:13 am
and it is not inexpliccage. the people don't appreciate the strength of the president. he's isolated with the advisors with whom he worked with and reaching the white house, but he's under assault day afterday. not only by the national left wing media but the establishment he ran against and understood he would be at war with. but paul ryan and mitch mcconnell. if they can get them out of those posipgz, national interest will be well served and brighter days will be for all. nbuild the wall and talk about immigration later.
4:14 am
>> i think it is wall, wall, wall. he's gutted the movement. >> lou: he made no suggestion to my knowledge that he's given up on the wall. he talks about it later and perhaps talks should be about advancing the schedule. we'll be right back, much more ahead, and hang on. stay with us. president trump fighting for tax reform and creation of more american jobs. >> this is to not to benefit the wealthy and benefit middle-class and companies pushing jobs. >> lou: we'll talk to tony saes. and president and first lady in florida and talked to victims of

4:18 am
>> lou: tonight we'll have the shocking new details of the spy
4:19 am
scandal. susan rice changing her story on the unmasking of trump officials. you do want to see it. president trump making the case for tax reform. president trump pushing for a plan focused on strengthening the middle-class and xraeting jobs and economic expansion. he will take support where he finds it? for the tax billy would be surprised if i didn't have democrats, where states i won 30 points or more. and i think they like the ideas of the tax plan. loupe lou there are three senators with the democrats heidi hidecamp of north dakota dack and john tester of montana and joe manchin of west
4:20 am
virginia. they could cast a decisive vote for tax reform. especially if mitch mcconnell switched to the 51 threshold. good to have you, tony. >> thank you for having me. >> lou: tax reform. 15 percent of the corporate rate and hear from a treasury secretary mitigation of that. and i hear from another cabinet offer or advisor to the or paul ryan something like 20 percent is better. what in the world going on? >> reporter: we have pushed the 50 percent number and most pro growth and make us. america should be number one. we know that in north dakota
4:21 am
when you level the playing field for the american worker we win. treasury secretary was simply saying as we are pushing that number. we have our eye on the fact it is a negotiation with congress and make sure we get the competitive. we stick to 15 percent. >> lou: middle-class that the president is focusing on, middle class tax cut. we hear 15 percent but no number for the middle-class? >> rates are discussed and there is something that is certain. middle income hard working family is the focus with the tax cut and we are going to lower rate and increase the standard deduction and the first 24 this happened dollars dollars of a jointly marriedly couple is a tax cut. we'll simplify taxes and they
4:22 am
can fill it out on one page. we'll reduce the terribly high uncompetitive rate and do something where paychecks are increased. we know from our studies, lou, 70 percent of the tax burden is bore by the worker and are that helps the individual worker. >> lou: talk about the business tax cult and it is bold and anybody can understand it. considering the middle-class is not got a number and solid and concrete to help shape your message to the middle-class and president's base. it just seems like it is a good idea for you all to put the number out there for folks to compreend and ument mate he
4:23 am
support. let me turn to another area where there is the estimated 3 or $4 trillion parked in overseas banks by corporate america. there is no reason for that money to be over there because it should be here. it is not here because corporate america took advantage of the loop holes to do so. they are loop holes. it is not a matter of economic force driving it. it is a decision by corporate america. how will the trump administration incentative companies to move it back here and create and invest in jobs? >> you are right, lou. we have details coming out september 25th as a job's pel. cooper eight is at 35 percent
4:24 am
and 15 higher in competitor overseas. they profits are high but not reinvested in america. >> lou: that is an attitude and conduct of corporate america that is frankly unamerican and has to be changed. >> that's what the president is doing, going from an offshore to american model. >> lou: how? >> 15 percent is where the tax rate should be and deputy from a world wide to a territorial one and they have to be pay taxes. that's what competitor have done and it workings. an american subsidary has an advantage to operate under a foreign company than a american company.
4:25 am
it hurts our product and workers and reenforces the fact that the company is rigged fancy them. and the last piece of business is corporation. reduce the business taxes significantly so mom and pop and priority tors benefit from a lower rate. >> lou: we appreciate it, tony. a lot to get done. much more and including the clibton cover up. and shocking new claims of the clinton response to the benghazi terrorist attacks. we'll have a full report. stay with us. you each drive a ford pickup right? (all) yes. i'm going to show you a next generation pickup. awesome. let's do this. the bed is made of high-strength steel, which is less susceptible to punctures than aluminum. stronger the better. and best of all, this new truck is actually- (all laughing)

4:30 am
the 2012 benghazi terrorist attack. two benghazi security contractors speaking to fox news after five years after the attacks left four americans dead. fox news, chief intelligence correspondent catherine herridge has the report. >> reporter: were they trying to silence you. >> absolute slee. a u.s. ambassador is dead and no one is accounted for it. >> people made the choice and responsible for the benghazi attacks, they are still in the same positions and makeingly choices for our embassy overseas now. >> jerry tore is supplying security for u.s. embassy and conactual will sulate and along with brad owens a army
4:31 am
intelligence officer they have 45 years of service. and speaking to fox. they had firsthand knowledge of the nightmare in benghazi, libya. tores bid on the contract. and the deal handled by the state department award today to blue mountain group the guards were not armed. this classified cable showed by midhug 2012 ambassador stephens knew they were in trouble. >> they sent the information to the security and they were not responding. they said can you take over the security. we were ready but 12 days later
4:32 am
the ambassador was kill would. blue mountain was advised not to talk and owens said they got the same order. and the state department went further. >> reporter: what did she say? >> i and people should not speak to the media or officials with respect to the benghazi program. >> reporter: the state department declined to make her available and the repercussion continues against the company. >> since that conversation, we bid on 20 security and lost 18. >> reporter: you feel more comfortable because of the change in administration in now that there is not a candidate related to it. we have an opportunity to fix the problem. >> reporter: the contractors said the state department was
4:33 am
a swamp scared. there was no med response. lou? >> lou: thank you recollects catherine herridge, an awful story that persists and thanks to the torresgroup for stepping forward. one hopes that all of this can be made right. we'll be straight back with much more, stay with us. the white house defending the president's decision to fire james comey and the white house getting specific about the charges on james comey. >> jamie comey leaking information and reasons for why he was fired and the president's decision was 100 percent right. >> lou: they take on comey's corruption and prosecution.

4:35 am
4:36 am
jackie: as an 18 year old, i let my mistakes kind of take over my life. i was point-five credits away from completing high school and i didn't do it. angela: i got pregnant and i was the main one working so, i did what i had to do to survive. jocelyn: sentía que la escuela no era para mí. karim: most of my family they never graduated high school or even let alone go to college so i'm trying to break that barrier. jackie: my family never stopped pushing for me to be better because they knew what i could become and who i could become as a person. karim: everyday after work i went straight to school, studied hard, and it paid off. jocelyn: sentía como que si quiero cambiar el mundo tengo que cambiara mi primero. group: surprise! surprise! surprise!
4:37 am
angela: i could not have gotten my diploma without my family. jocelyn: mi consejera, ella fue lo máximo para mí porque me ayudó mucho con todo. jackie: i've been given an opportunity and i'm just thankful for it. angela: yeah it's hard, but keep on going and keep on trying. karim: the high school diploma has just added to the confidence and now i feel unstoppable. narrator: find free adult education classes near you at finishyourdiploma.org >> lou: joining me it discuss the case about james comey and hillary clinton. greg, the white house press secretary sarah sanders making it clear what the long list of charges against comey and this man is in rule trouble?
4:38 am
>> yeah, i will name the statute. 18c641. which says, you may not convert government property to your own use and convey it to somebody unouthorized and that's what comey did by leaking presidential memos to the media. >> lou: it turns out he is corrupt. and he exonerated someone he was investigating two months before. and how serious could he be in investigating if he didn't have a grand jury leading to prosecutions. >> he's in legal jeopardy not under the statute for leaking government documents and
4:39 am
testified in the house when asked did you decide not to prosecute hillary clinton and he said under oath after. how is it that he compromised a statement exonerating her two months before he interviewed her? that is striking mes false tell. >> lou: false tell for which, i don't know what the consequences are. perjury. but i know without a justice department that is standing tall and energized and carrying forward that investigation. the attorney general jeff sessions is not going forward. what is done. >> i am surprised at jeff sessions because he has a distinguished legal career.
4:40 am
and i feel certain that president trump regrets jeff sessions. he sand bagged the president before he was sworn in and that led eventually to a special prosecutor and sessions trusted some key members of his long- time staff to select the top individuals of justice including rod rosenstein who is close to barbara mulcoskey. it was a mistake to have sessions as a g. >> we have mark swarts in the white house. when you see the people they empowered and hired to put in places of importance. he brought in the establishment. these are not only card carrying folks. they are vandlers and weapons
4:41 am
fashioned to destroy anyone who act against the establishment and they are taking down in every way the president's agenda. >> the president is a trusting and loyal man and trusted the wrong people and the selections were not good. he got snookered in many cases and sessions is one of them. >> lou: hillary clinton, and the benghazi revelation and judges requiring a bar investigation in three attorneys and insisting that there be and the state department turn over emails now again. this looks like something is now a foundation laid for serious investigation. >> it is more than a bar. it has to be a singled special counsel appointed and reexamine the evidence and decide if she
4:42 am
committed crimes of self dealing pay to play and a clear violation of the espionage act and classified documents. >> lou: is there any doubt that the clinton foundation was nothing more than a pay to play scam and perpetrated on a immense scale. >> it is it a crime to use public office to confer ben fetes from a foreign government. that's why she did that. >> lou: crooked hillary. >> people think she is crooked and the evidence is there. >> lou: i think we can say the wisdom of the crowd. we'll show you a man taking a bike ride to new heights and they come together in a thrilling video.
4:43 am
he rode 650 above the ground over montenegro. 650 feed and about an inch on the tyra gave him his life. bad idea in the first place and i exalt his courage and oner about his judgment. >> up next the nuclear explosion. the next guest described equifax cyber attack and what should their punishment be? he joins me after the break. yoyoyoyoyo during our made to move 2017 clearance event, you can do endless online research. or, you can take advantage of our best offer ever on an xt5. don't wait.

to the braechlt congress is demanding answers from equifax and that tell is october 3rd're. joining me now to discuss the latest cyber attack against corporate america. cyber security expert morgan wright. >> good to see you, lou. >> lou: i am discussed with the way the ceo has responded. he will make changes. bless his little heart. he screwed up the lives of 43 million americans because he can't run a company worth a dam. >> there should be criminal charges in this. and lou, i talked to something on congress we talked about
4:49 am
accountability. the next thing you need is a dim dig version. if he misspent 143 million he would be going to jail. you misspend 143 million peoples identity go to jail. there should be a separate investigation about the stock activity. this rule of data breaches is not the rule number. it is going to be higher. >> lou: the ceo said there is no problem here when three executives sold stock within a matter of 3 or 4 days of learning, they said they didn't learn. but the company learned and next thing you know they are telling stocks and six weeks to let the public know. and the sec should be all over
4:50 am
it. i am sick of the cyber attacks of the corporations who have the where with all to protect that data to which they are entrusted by the consumer and customers and not a word from the business roundtable. jamie dimand wants to copy what they are saying and not paying attention to this. it is disgusting that the chamber of commerce business leaders are not demand better performance from themselves. >> this thing could have been prevented. it was a simple fix. they knew about it in march. hugh lou they had the patch waiting. all they had to do is -- respiratory they ignored it? >> they had to apply it.

the nsa discloseed to microsoft. microsoft put out a patch when north korea did the work. and you have patches and the reason they are out there. this system runs the system at the irs and other big companies. this software is going over the place. everyone else patched it but why department equifax? >> lou: exactly. morgan, come see us soon. we'll talk about what a deal daca should look like. tammy bruce and

4:56 am
i remind the base and trump supporters that nothing has happened yet. we are told by legacy media or pelosi and schumer that trump is doing x, y, & z. we need to make sure the president knows where we stand. we want him to be a successful president. lou low if he doesn't know the base is inflamed, follow ann coulter on twitter. >> i think any time you go against paul ryan and mcconnell you are doing godda work. >> lou: what about shumer and pelosi; what is the deal with pelosi and schumer. >> but at least i know where they stand more so with ryan and mcconnell. >> it is a warning, we'll make
4:57 am
you irrelevant in the process and republicans that move those men out of the leadership. nremember they are opening bids. >> lou: i get that and he's also the president of the united states. and sometimes the president achieves more by guiding the process than getting involved in it. i thought he was brilliant in terms of turning daca back to congress and then he's having dinner with pelosi and schumer who by the way, this president is worked with schumer and knows schumer, what did he call him, crying chuck and the head clown? and suddenly, he's having to put up with him at dinner. >> he had dinner with mitt romney. >> lou: i didn't like that dinner at all. and i am sure, well, anyway,
