lou: special counsel robert mueller continues to move further and further away from his original investigation, he is looking into white house senator adviser kushner conversation with foreign leaders during the period of the transition and his role in talks about a u.n. resolution condemning israeli settlements. chris is joining me now. let's start with mueller. this one of the most e economies

as -- ex as per eighth events. >> he is attempting to criminalize the conversations and contacts, communications of one of president's not only relative, a close adviser and take his communication, his contacts and criminalize them. there are two ways to say this nonsense, he was a private person outside of government service, that first amendment still exists. he is free to talk to whom ever he wishes. if you want to ably t -- apply o context of from the see who is to say he was not talking under the direct for potential initiative or policy ideas, he

is infeet -- entitled to do so, this is overreach beyond overreach. >> this is very irritating on so many levels, it is beyond purview of his mission. >> correct. lou: it beyond pail when it comes to special counsel who is now adventuring into areas looking for almost any stau straw he might grasp to say he should continue an investigation that has been baron, sterile, and unproductive. then to add to that, the obvious intent -- the part not only of dupe state, but -- deep state but lead ebb ship of republican party that controls both houses of congress to permit this overreach to go on.

because we as i understand it, we have a majority leader in senate and a speaker in the house who will long with heads of senate and house intelligence committees and judiciary committees could say, mueller, we have had a belly full, either you present a reason to continue this or we're drawing it up, and saying good night. >> a majority of that leadership, saying that committee chairman were all in agreement on this, i know they are not, but hypothetically, they could turn to so-called leadership, ryan and mcconnell, saying we're coming out, saying this is none sense, either get onboard or get out of the way. but there is a failure in leadership, mcconnell, ryan, and burr. lou: head of senate intelligence committee -- >> it disgraceful what he has

done. >> help kate -- abkated his responsibilities and authorities, he is ut arely bereft of any integrity to have conducted himself as he have. >> burr is complicit. lou: now let's turn to the justice department as we find it. leaderless, rudderless and conflicted. what is the president to do? >> you have a case now where mueller is issuing subpoenas to his very own justice department to compel them to produce records to him. think about this. a subpoena is a coercive legal instrument. it is not a request. it is not coordination, not a lot of things, it is a demand

with teeth. ask yourself, what in the world is going on. where mueller issues subpoenas to justice department to compel production of records, is this justice department not cooperating? is that the message? what is he not getting that he wants? why would there be resistance over it? this is we're going off to never, neverland, this is a level of weirdness with respect to mueller that -- it defies dechris shup. >> it appeared there is one serious person in washington, d.c., that is the president of united states who is charged with responsibility for foreign policy, for making certain our national security is as effective as it can be. he is being blocked, challenged, obstructed at every turn by not only the democrats who are

playing a horrible, petty dangerous game of construct -- obstructed. >> he continues to march along pursuing his objectives despite the sniping. he continues to move forward, try to get things accomplished. also realize -- >> he is accomplishing great things, but he is doing so with an expenditure of energy that is more man necessary. >> can you imagine if members of his open party actually supported him. lou: if nationsal left wing media had any fairness or a sense of balance, and responsibility to the public's right to know, the truth. what he could accomplice, my

god. >> this is just a question of intellectual honesty, unfortunately it is absent. the latest is fusion gps nonsense, the so-calleddic journalists -- ex journalists buying and placing phonied up stories they manufactured. the corrosive affect on public trust in media is further drif en intdriven intothe gutter. lou: we're over, but, in talking with peter schweizer author of clinton cash. >> a great guy. lou: one of the most successful and productive and important investigative reporters that involved in any of this, setting much in motion. >> absolutely. lou: last week i asked him, are the following people dirty and crooked. i will ask you if i may.

is jeff sessions crooked? >> i don't believe show, i believe he is a man of integrity, i think he is overwhelmed and neutralized by justice department deep state. lou: robert mueller? >> i are reason to suspect and question his integritiy and also his honesty, particularly in light of the events and activities going on back to uranium one, 2009 and there after. lou: james comey. >> he is a man who absconded with u.s. record and willfully leaked them, he is a criminal in my opinion. lou: andrew mccabe. >> a man wildly conflicted. there is evidence -- we just got 79 pages more new pages just in last day with respect to mr. mccabe, he is wildly conflicted, you know his wife

was a political operative. lou: and andrew weisman, as well? >> yeah, this is same situation, same scenario we're involved in. you know, i'm happy to answer those straight up that way, probably myself and maybe 2 or their other people will give you single sentence answers. lou: you and peter schweizer. >> absolutely. >> he could not fine it go his heart to his demand for truth to suggest that any of them should be giving a clear bill of integrity. this is astonishing, thank you for your straight forward answers, you are one of these few people the reason that i took time for our viewers to hear your response, this is a crisis we face, there is no further denying it.

we have a crisis of confidence, a crises in a little bit o a poe department, and a country that is bleeding right now, and a responsibility as citizens to make certain we get to corrected straight away, do you concur? >> i do, we have to go bacto equal justice under the law, anything short of that destroyed our constructional republican. lou: chris thank you. >> happy thanksgiving. lou: breaking news now, border patrol, finally going public with some statements today letting us know that one of agents seriously wounded in southwest texas, sunday, has been discharged from the hospital, border patrol however will not identify that agent. and border patrol refused to divulge circumstances that lead to his parteer in's death --

lou: joining us tonight, jordan chang, an expert on north korea, author of the book collapse of china. good to have you with us. the president announcing more sanctions adding to this that have already been in place now, some of them for decades. any likelihood that they will be any more effective than sanctions before them? >> i think over the long-term, they will be. there is some anecdotal evidence pointing all in the same direction that the north koreans are getting starved with cash. so, for instance, junior officials in pyongyang are no longer getting their rations. secretary tillerson on monday talked about fuel shortages. also, these loyalty payments, which are essentially informal taxes. the regime is accelerating their collection, meaning that they've got a cash-flow

problem. lou: but this is not the first time, if you will, the ruling class has been pressed and, in fact, in some cases moved to subsistence in the way of food and other staples. so where are we headed then? because it was just -- we are now in the tenth month of the presidency of donald j. trump, and it's starting to feel a lot like all that had preceded it when it comes to north korea. >> yeah. he's actually much more effective on this because he's made it his number one policy goal. lou: okay. but i would only argue with the word effective because the fact that the president has said he wants to achieve that is the denuclearization of korea and in no way am i criticizing him for that lavatory goal, which three presidents before him made necessary. i am, however, wondering about

how effective will be the turn to china to bring pressure on kim jong-un and to resolve it because you and i both know and america now knows that the only possible solution goes through beijing. >> well, it does. and, you know, we've seen president trump start the signal to the chinese that he's not going to put up with the old way of doing things. lou: and the only president to do so amongst the last three. >> right. and the reason is -- part of it reason is -- lou: i don't care. i'm sorry. we're crushed for time. i know the reasons. we know the reasons. the reason is we want to denuclearize north korea. my question is what's it going to take? and when will it happen? because the south koreans say that the north koreans will have an icbm capable of hitting the united states by the end of this year with a nuclear warhead aboard. >> yeah. and they're probably right. you know, the estimates are nine months, maybe 15 months.

but they may be able to do it a lot sooner. we just don't know. lou: they said by the end of this year. and our intelligence keeps getting updated into agreement with that of south korea. >> right. we've been far too optimistic in the past. you know, president trump needs to put the hard word on beijing, and he needs to impose costs that make china at a point where they have no choice but to comply. if he takes one of those big chinese banks and declares them a primary money laundering concern, disconnects them from the global financial system, then we're going to see beijing move. but president trump needs to show the will to do that because it's going to cost a lot. lou: it's going to cost a lot of -- i think if he doesn't, the cost will be -- >> even greater. lou: unspeakably higher. thank you very much. appreciate it. >> happy thanksgiving. lou: happy thanksgiving. even in the midst of it all. we're coming right back with much more. stay with us and, yes, there is much to be grateful for. we'll take that up as well.

stay with us. lou: president trump blasting the nfl once again. this time over reports the nfl may keep players in the locker room next year during our national anthem. when will this disgrace and insult stop? we take it up with conservative commentator and best-selling author michelle. and criminals beware. nitro, the police dog is going above and beyond the call of duty. wait until you see this. we'll have the video for you here next.

lou: this just in. annual released court documents reveal the gruesome tactics of the ms13 drug cartel in montgomery county, maryland. as many as ten members of the ms13 gang stabbed a man who is unidentified, stabbed him more than 100 times and ripped out his heart before burying him. so far, one person has been arrested and charged in the gruesome murder. well, joining me now michelle, host of michelle investigates on cr tv.com, best-selling author and great american. great to see you. and let's turn, if we may, very quickly to a situation with ms13 the attorney general to his credit has been focused on it. the president called him out himself. but they are now a crisis in

every community in which they operate. >> they certainly have become that. they've metastasized over the last 20, 25 years since i started covering illegal alien gangs like them back into my days of newspapering in los angeles. and i lived in montgomery county, maryland, and it is not shocking because even when i left some ten years ago, ms13 had penetrated so deeply into the public school system, the welfare system, and now the fact that you have this man who was targeted by ms13 allegedly and buried at a park that families like mine had been going to on weekends. wheaton regional park. it shows you that the deadly consequences of open borders are now at the doorstep of the beltway in the white house. lou: and the border patrol violence against agents has

risen 60% just this year alone. one agent murdered sunday. we don't know the details. we are for the first time not being told details. they will not even identify his partner, the agent who was with him during the presumed assault and murder. nor how they came into contact with whomever it was. this is -- things are taking a very decided turn for the worse. >> yes. they are, lou. and it is alarming, but it will not be a shock to many border patrol agents who have had to encounter the swamp and the way that it handles crises like this. just five years ago nicholas ivy who was a border patrol agent who died in a similar circumstances. he had been checking a ground sensor and satisfying whether or noassessing whether or not it was human activity.

just a tragedy of errors occurred that resulted him -- in him dying under friendly fire. but there's still a lot of questions. even up to this past summer because you have ranchers and locals where he had died wondering if, in fact, there was a cover-up related to drug-smuggling activity. and in agent martinez's case over the weekend, the idea that he simply fell into a culvert at 11:20 p.m. on a saturday in a remote area also known to be infested by drug smuggling, it doesn't make sense, lou, and it doesn't smell gun. and the homeland security whether run by republicans or democrats has a problem with telling the truth, and it's going to take independent watch dogs to elicit answers from them. i also covered the case from victor who you well remember, lou, the ice agent who was also ambushed in mexico with another agent who died. and they are still having to go to federal court. in fact, our friends at

judicial watch have helped them out trying to file foil lawsuits because you having the government at every turn reducing to answer questions about what happened because they don't want to take accountability. lou: our federal government is becoming almost unrecognizable in too many instances, and it has god to be fixed. this administration has to fix it and bring them to heel because this is a bureaucracy out of control. we might as well be living in europe to see the responsiveness of these agencies and departments to the murder of public servants and those who are defending literally the nation's sovereignty at the first line, and that is the border. michelle, great to see you. thanks so much for being with us. michelle. >> thank you. grateful for you thanksgiving. lou: please roll the video and watch this 2-year-old canine, there he is.

nitro. this is one of my favorite dogs now performing push-ups alongside two alabama police officers. this the trio's warmup before quote catching any bad guys that break the law. nitro joining the gulf shore's police department canine unit in february. and you know what? nitro is already getting them in shape, isn't he? i love that. i absolutely love that. up next, new allegations against democratic senator al franken. that's right. there are more women. we take up the ever-growing list of mostly the leftist creeps with charlie here next. stay with us let's begin.

lou: breaking news now. two more women have just come forward tonight. they accused senator al franken of inappropriate touching. both women speaking on condition of amenity to the huffington post. they claim franken groped them on separate incidents back in 2007. this makes now a total of four women who have made similar allegations against franken over the past week. joining me now, washington times opinion editor, fox business contributor charlie

hurt. this may be, it seems for the left at least, and some part of the right, the new normal, charlie. what do you think? >> yeah. no kidding. i mean, these people are dropping like flies. they're coming out of the woodwork like cockroaches. but, you know, i thought it was particularly interesting because that -- this latest report about al franken came out of huffington post, which of course is the website that was started by al franken's great friend and now defender huffington who had all of the embarrassing pictures of him groping her. but seemed to think it was just fine and rather enjoyed it, apparently. lou: well, she said that there's nothing inappropriate that ever happened, despite appearances, i guess is the way to say that. senator conyers of michigan. congress conyers of michigan. more women stepping forward

again. he says he will not, no matter what, resign. your action? >> with conyers, you're talking about a guy who is the most powerful democrat on the house judiciary committee. the committee that oversees justice in this country. and the idea that this kind of guy -- and, you know, there's a new report out just today, melanie who is an attorney, certainly not a right-winger by any stretch. if anything, she's a left-winger. but a powerful attorney who is a ethics watch dog here in the city. her whole life she has been going after powerful people. she came out today in the washington post and accused conyers of assaulting her and abusing her when she worked for him years ago. and that she alerted at the time to this abuse and nothing was ever done about it. and it was all swept under the carpet. i think as many of these things we've seen so far, lou, i think we haven't seen the

end. i think we're still going to see a lot more. and there are a lot more questions that need to be -- uncomfortable questions that need to be asked of people. lou: the outrage of these molestations, these sexual harassment and abuses carried out by senators, by congressmen. the existence of a slush fund to hide them. it is almost incomprehensible. it's hard to imagine to have created such a device to both funnel taxpayer money, to victims, and to hide the perpetrators names. >> it's precisely why donald trump won the election last year because people are so sick and tired. i'm sure that that slush fund actually when people thought about it, surprised very few people because we've gotten to the point where we expect nothing else from the federal government. nothing else from our elected officials. this is how they operate.

they screw the innocent taxpayer, and they've been doing it forever, and they're going to keep doing it until somebody really shakes things up. and my hope is that that person is donald trump. lou: well, there's a very interesting development, and that is a bill that will be introduced next week by congressman ron that will call for the abolishment of that slush fund and also the repayment of money by any senator by any congressman who used taxpayer funds as hush money. >> i love it. lou: and that's moving in the right direction. the vote will be a very interesting thing to watch. >> and, yes, it will be. and you watch. all the normal lobbyists around here won't score this one. they score everything else, but they won't score this one because it's something that really literally goes against everything everybody stands

for in washington. lou: it will go a long way toward helping drain this swamp. >> yep. lou: charlie, thank you so much. have a happy thanksgiving. >> and to you. lou: thank you. be sure to vote in our poll tonight. who's the bigger turkey? we want your opinion on this. paul ryan or mitch mcconnell? i'm not really -- i'm just asking a question. i'm not calling names. i'm just asking a question. cast your vote on twitter at lou dobbs. we would like to hear from you. and next, president trump taking on nfl commissioner goodell over a possible change to the league's national anthem policy. it turns out the players might not be able to hear it. i'll take all of that and more up with pastor

hey, man. oh! nice man cave! nacho? [ train whistle blows ] what?! -stop it! -mm-hmm. we've been saving a lot of money ever since we switched to progressive. this bar is legit. and now we get an even bigger discount from bundling home and auto. i can get used to this. it might take a minute. -swing and a miss! -slam dunk! touchdown! together: sports!

your kids go to college and you start trading. >>yeah, 5 years already. 5 years, hmm. you ever call your broker for help? >>once, when volatility spiked... and? >>by the time they got me an answer, it was too late.

liberals are somehow the sole selector and protecter of women. lou: by the way, i would only say to you, pastor, they blew that up a long time ago. >> well, we're seeing it again. and, lou, it doesn't matter whether we're talking about climate change, racism, or the treatment of women, the hypocritical mantra of the left is do as we say, not as we do. now, there's plenty on the part of the right too. but this is something that is unprecedented. you know, jesus said one time what is done in secret will one day be shouted from the rooftops. well, there's a lot of shouting going on on a lot of rooftops right now in america. lou: as you go across every industry, every media, every medium, it is just stunning. how old, capitol hill. but the one that i just cannot -- cannot just keep from boiling about is for

congress to put together a slush fund of taxpayer money to pay off women and others for their transgressions and their sexual molestation or harassment. and not be identified. it's just stunning. i mean, it's hard to stun me. but that's a stunning piece of arrogance. >> well, it's inexcusable and now we're getting the idea why congresses has been able to get more done. they're diverted by other activities, it looks like. lou: well, they may be diverted -- well, they are diverted. i want your reaction from the president. i got a kick out of him telling levar ball that he's an ungrateful fool, and i'm just clicking around cable television, i heard a bunch of left winklingers having a fit calling him an ungrateful fool. i thought it was so appropriate the eve of thanksgiving to remind some people they need to be kind of grateful for what we've got. he did it in his own eloquent

way, the president did. >> well, he absolutely did. and, look, whether we're talking about the nfl players or levar ball, this problem of gratitude has permeated america. and the bible says our lives ought to be overflowing with gratitude. and, lou, to that end tomorrow on our sister channel, i'm issuing the gratitude challenge encouraging americans to make a list of three things they're grateful for thanking god every day for those three things for the next 30 days. it will change people's attitude. and, lou, i have to say on behalf of the viewers of your program, i think i speak for all of us when i say we're grateful to you for what you do in presenting the news every night. but also, presenting what's right in america. including the fact that god has given us the right president, president trump at the right time doing the right things that something all americans can be grateful for. we're grateful to you, lou. lou: well, i'm grateful to you, and i appreciate the kind

words. and i believe next year we're going to see a lot more people than anyone could imagine right now understand just how grateful they should be for this president. pastor, thank you for being with us. we appreciate happy thanksgiving to you and to everyone. >> i'm dagen mcdowell in for kennedy. tonight, republicans unite over the tax plan and skeptical over the proposal. mr. robert waltz is here. plus, is hillary clinton really blaming president obama for her election loss? we'll have to explain that coming up. and tech companies behaving badly. uber and google in the spotlight for trying to pull a fast one on users. how can we fight back? all that and more. the gloves are off tonight on kennedy. ♪ ♪ . >> first
