4:00 am
lube good evening, everybody. tensions erupting once again between president trump and his attorney general jeff sessions. president trump today exscorated sessions on twitter. saying it is disgraceful his attorney general decided to rely on an obama era inspector general to investigate obama era fisa court abuses by the fbi and department of justice. >> loose a major depart treasure the trump white house one of the longest-serving and trusted aides hope heating digs today announced her resignation as communications director.
4:01 am
no specific date set for hicks departure. we'll have much more tonight on her resignation and it is likely effect on the president senior staff. and today, president trump taking the lead on the issue of school security and the safety of students and teachers. president trump called a large group of both democratic and republican lawmakers to the white house to discuss the issues and to find areas after agreement that could pass congress and the senate. >> president trump: we have to do something about it. we have to act. we can't wait and play games and nothing gets done. we're determined to turn our grief into action. i really believe that. i think that the people at this table want it. >> lou dobbs: u2 of our guests are leading republican congressman instrumental in exposing the deep state in obama era corruption and collusion. congressman jim jordan and rhonda desantos.
4:02 am
and the top story. president trump slamming attorney general sessions for using the inspector general to investigate what are obvious abuses of the nicea court and the politically motivated surveillance by the obama fbi and the department of justice. president trump tweeted this "asking why is ag jeff sessions asking the inspector general to investigate potentially massive fisa abuse. will take forever. has no prosecutorial power and already linked with reports on comey, et cetera. isn't the ig an obama guy? >> not use justice department lawyers. disgraceful." >> session responded to the president chrisism with is that more passive-aggressive ambiguitity the attorney general said, "we have initiated the appropriate process that will insure complaints against this department will be fully and fairly acted upon, if necessary. as long as i am the attorney
4:03 am
general, i will continue to discharge my duty was integrity and honor. and this department will continue to do its work in a fair and impartial manner, according to the law and the constitution." our first guest tonight has called for ag sessions to step down. he's one of 13 congressman who today sent a letter to sessions demanding a second special council to investigate the fisa court abuses and seeking answers all 13 congressmen as to why hillary clinton's investigation ended and the trump russian probe began. joining us congressman jim jordan the member of the judiciary and oversight committee and the member of the house freedom caucus and co-founder of that caucus good. to have you with us. >> you too,. good to see you. >> lou dobbs: it is great to see you. let's start with jeff sessions you've called for his resignation. he issues a statement in
4:04 am
response to the president criticism, your reaction to both? >> every, single day becomes more obvious we need a second special council. that's why we called for it a long time ago and why we call for it again today. it is obvious-- i don't like special councils, but you have to have one. jeff sessions doesn't know where his recusal stops and starts. robert muller, he's inherently compromised, i think with his background with the fbi looking into all of this, so you have to name a second special council. what i would suggest, kick someone from outside of the swamp. take some retired federal judge from oklahoma, iowa, somewhere. have them come in and do an investigation, the way it should be done. i think when that happens, there's a much better chance that whatever conclusions he or she reaches, the american people will accept those conclusions. >> lou dobbs: the issue of a second special council when this one has created so much turmoil. at the very least conflict, not only between the president of
4:05 am
course and the republican partiy. and the democrats, but this thing is upside down. it makes no sense. and one would-- i think have to at least consider what a mess this first special council is, before appointing a second? >> i think that the second special council should look at all of this. but mostly focus in on the dossier. you know we had congressman shifts memo come out. i think all it did is reinforce the republican memo from a few weeks ago. >> lou dobbs: i think you're exactly right. >> saying congressman ship says well, the fbi was already looking into christopher steele and didn't need the dossier. why didn't you get the warrant beforehand. why did you wait until you had the dos year and lead with the application to the fisa court? i think every argument that they raised-- really didn't in any way refute what we said about this dossier was the key ren they were able to go to the court and get a warrant to spy
4:06 am
on an american associated with the trump campaign. it should not work that way. >> lou dobbs: let me ask you this. you have called for sessions resignation. the president is obviously beside himself, infuriated with the man he appointed, who has defying him. and defying reason itself. sessions is not even making sense. in talking about honor and integrity and discharging his duties-- there should be no question about honor and integrity. he has a responsibility and a duty and the only way he can maintain integrity is to fulfill that duty. >> i don't know why they don't investigate what takes place at the fisa court. what they took to the court was this dossier all dressed up like it was legitimate intelligence. we know that it wasn't. salacious unverified dossier. they took it to the court and got a warrant to spy on a fellow american. they didn't tell the court who paid for it. when you read the paragraph
4:07 am
where the democrats say, well they talk about source one, pern two. it is the most convulute the way. they didn't tell the court who paid for the dossier. the clinton campaign and the democrat national committee and what they didn't tell the court. that they had discontinued their relationship with christopher steele. because he violated a fundamental principle. he went to the press and told them he was working with the fbi. the fbi did not disclose that to the court. but continued to use his work product. this dossier. so of course, attorney general sessions should investigate this. if he doesn't want to, at least name a second special council, which we have all called for. at least do that so we can get to the bottom of it. >> lou dobbs: it is extraordinary. the clock is running out. chairman devon nunez of the house intelligence committee demanding answers from the three principle leaders of the obama intelligence apparatus. what's going to happen here?
4:08 am
>> devon has been tough on this. i appreciate the work of the chairman. he sent 10 key questions. when did you get the dossier. who did you share it with? did you talk to the president? did you talk to the press? 10 important questions to dozen people. most of them in the obama administration. some probably still at the fbi. so, those 10 questions and the answers are due this friday. devon says if you don't give me the answers, because we will get to the bottom one way or the other. we will s&p you. that's the way it should work. if they will not give us the answers the american people are entitled to when something this fundamental a dossier. campaign research was taken to a secret court to get a secret warrant to spy on an american citizen and not give us answers how it happened. you deserve the subpoenana. what answers we get back and for those that didn't send back answers. chairman nunez will issue is

4:14 am
conclusion between his campaign and his administration and the kremlin. a lot to cover in presidential politics, in particular tonight. joining us ed rollins. former white house political director under ronald reagan and fox business political analyst dean rollins. this is an cro time. the president today, it is rumored, if not it is also reported but we don't know how reliablably a lot of tension in the white house. a very energized group of folks. arguing about whether the president should put these duties on countries that have been dutching aluminum and steele here. why should there be any question about it? >> first, the white house at the top level. this should not be outside discussion. people around the white house and administration are supposed to give the president the best council they can once he makes up his mind their job is not say. >> lou dobbs: it is clear
4:15 am
they're fighting them on it. >> keep their mouth shut. >> lou dobbs: i agree. >> lou dobbs: once the decision is made by the president of the united states that should settle it. >> and equally important the discussion of the decision should be shutdown and the internal. i think the thing that amazes me about this white house having watched it for 13 or 14 months now. how much-- it is like not general kelly. it is the president progresstive whether he wants general kelly. if i was chief of staff and bad mouth by my staff i would kick their ass out of the building and would have done that as a four-star general. the ideas people aren't happy with general consolidate kelly that's tough. the on guy he has to please is the president of the united states if the president is not happy with the staff, he should get rid of them. >> it is amazing. >> lou dobbs: it is amazing his patience with some of these folks, the president. i spoke, without certain knowledge, also general kelly is being very patient. kelly's future.
4:16 am
hr mcmaster again rumored to be leaving. we know hope hicks is leaving. >> again, these rumors are not rumors by the president. they're rumors by the staff. >> lou dobbs: i don't know who they're from. >> we're picking things up. it doesn't do any why. the most absurd was huckby to say there are no shakeups in the white house. >> lou dobbs: can i give you a counter view? >> sure. >> lou dobbs: we elected this man to run this country and get us off the path of devastation and destruction that we're been on for-- what? four decades? >> yes. >> lou dobbs: to end foreign wars. to end stupid-- open borders. to actually focus on trade policies that benefit the country. to merit-based immigration system. the man is talking about intelligent, and intelligent government with intelligent policies. he is surrounded over on capitol
4:17 am
hill in both parties by morons, who are committed to the business round table, the chamber of commerce and every vested interest in the country to ignore what is in the interests of the country, and the future that should be the birthright of every american. >> i couldn't agree with you more. the critical thing. the greatest power of this president is not just the ability to make these decisions, but the ability to go to the country and sell the decisions. he has to go around this congress. >> lou dobbs: how many times does he have to sell. >> for the flex they years and the second term. he has to sell for four years. he is the pulpit. if-- . >> lou dobbs: you know it is time to put the pressure on the people who work for him. the man works non-stop. the man has more energy than any five people you ask i know. >> i go back to my point. there's no one there who has the right to be there but the president. the rest of the staff. it is a privilege to serve. not go out and community to the media. the privilege.
4:18 am
give the president the best council. bite your tuning. shut your mouth. if you don't like something. leave. >> lou dobbs: ryan doubt like the president trade policies and wants to take the business round table. by the way the business round table, folks, i want to explain. it is the, the lobbying organization for 130-- 140 u.s. multiple nationals who sometimes have only a glancing, passing passion about the domestic economy. they're so global, they're so elite that sometimes it is rarefied air they breathe. >> as ryan and i can't with the chamber of commerce or what have you. back to the president. the president has to straighten the white house out. he has to say to kelly. i want you to stay here. go fix it. i want the stuff stopped. i want everyone to serve me. give me the best council. and i make the decisions and
4:19 am
everyone supports me. >> lou dobbs: what does he say to ryan and mcconel? >> i'm take you on. you want to go to the country. >> lou dobbs: i think he should grab them both figuratively speaking i'll just passive folks. figuratively speaking grab them both by the nape of the neck and introduce them to caught consequences for following the districta of the chamber of commerce. the establishment and elites, instead of the party and the national interests. because this president, and his party were elected to get it done for the nation, and for all americans. as he put it on the campaign trail. ed, great to have you here. thank you, sir. we're coming right back. much more straight ahead. stay with us. >> lou dobbs: vladmir putin touting a supposedly unstoppable nuclear missile, but it is a missile that can't fly. we'll take up the arms race between the united states and russia next with general jack keen.

>> lou dobbs: chinese president silencing critics now that he is a communist dictator. the chinese government has banned words and phrases from the internet now that could be used to express disapproveal of xizheng ping. including asend the throne. "life long immort tatty ." the right wing media unwilling to recover to him as the communist dictator has he has become. joining me jack keen. chairman of the constitute for the study of war. senior strategic analyst at the fox business network. grat to have you with us. >> great to see you. welcome back. >> lou dobbs: thank you. it is great to see you. let's start with vladmir putin and his unstoppable nuclear
4:25 am
purchase hour-- nuclear powered missile so far as we can tell does not fly? >> that's true, but in fairness to putin he has been refreshing his entire nuclear arsenal over the last five to six years rather healthfully. icbms. long-range bombers and submarine-delivered missiles. our system have been atrophying. the good news is the trump budget for fy18 and 19 begins to do the very same thing. in other words upgrade our nuclear capability. the other thing is that putin is developing smaller yield tactical nuclear weapons. we got rid of that, as the result of the imf treaty. the secretary manis has proposed do much the same. what we found 70 years of holding on to nuclear weapon. as long as we hold the same weapons our adversaries hold we will likely never use them.
4:26 am
that's the policy we're moving towards. we're moving in the right direction. >> lou dobbs: that is towards expanding and creating new tactical weapons nuclear weapons? >> and upgrading all of our strategic weapons. every, single one of them. >> lou dobbs: you talk about four to five years on the part of the russia. how quickly do you believe the united states can catch up with the russian advance? >> it will take us at least five or six years of full throated budgets on a scale that we have right now. and we just got to make the commitment to that, if we don't do that, we will have problems, because while we're still the dominant military in the world,. >> lou dobbs: , we have eroded and our adversaries have caught up to us in a lot of our technology advantage and in certain cay is this have go ahead. long-range artillery. they have a alert tank. we've been paying for 16 years
4:27 am
of 9/11 wars and haven't been able to capitalize the investment to get the technological edge capables that we're used to. >> lou dobbs: the president has made it clear and made it clear beginning in his campaign his inpatients with those carrying unnot ending wars. the cost of those wars and thousands of american lives. and more than $6 trillion in the conflicts still go on. immigration policies that are not merit-based, but create greater burdenons, rather than deal with the needs of this advanced technological-service-driven economy of ours. it is stunning that we such needs now in 2018 that we have it start funding to get our military into a position to basically just to protect the nation. let alone deal with foreign
4:28 am
threats. >> we have to do it in deficit spending as well. which-- further frustrating to everyone, but that is exactly what has taken place here. and particularly was aggravated under the obama administration when he hatched the budget control act or sequeststration. that really put us in a downward turn. the good news, we're turning this around. we have to keep that commitment to get our capabilities up and remember, we want these expensive strums, because it's the way we deter war. it is not about fighting one. it is trying to avoid one. because you don't want your adversary to think he can take advantage of you. >> lou dobbs: general thanks for being with us. general jack king. >> you although billy graham billy graham. >> lou dobbs: thank you very much. these two planes pulling off an incredible stunt. whoa! in buenos aires they race past each other performing a stunning low altitude crossing.
4:29 am
we're coming right back. much more straight ahead. not all of it pleasant, but all of it important. stay with us. >> lou dobbs: president trump taking the lead in the effort to keep our students safe. >> president trump: we can do that with an executive order. i will essentially write it out so you don't not don't have to worry about bump stop. >> lou dobbs: the president proposal to protect our schedules with congressman desantos and the blue angle pilots teasing with a samplal of what might be in store at the air show. his astonishing stunt here next. we'll be right back well the video. stay with us.

>> lou dobbs: a big legal victory for the trump administration in the 5-3 decision. the supreme court ruling yesterday immigrants facing deportation can be held indefinitely without receiving bail hearings, even if they have permanent legal status or are seeking asylum. another supreme court victory for the president. president trump pressing squabbling lawmakers to make
4:34 am
real progress on protecting americans from mass shootings. he invited a bipartisan group of 10 senators and seven congressman to the white house. the president took time to listen to as many ideas and proposals but said any plan should give people the ability to defend themselves. >> president trump: we want to pass something great. to me something gate has to be where you stop it from happening. i want a very strong counter punch. if you have a strong counter punch. they're not going in and you're not going to have this problem any more. >> lou dobbs: joining congressman ron de santos be member of the foreign affairs and judiciary oversight. congressman great to see you. let me start first on the issue of gun control. i haven't heard a lot of discussion about mental health. i haven't heard a lot of discussion about school administers and teachers and responsibilities to students
4:35 am
emotionally and mentally disturbed or quill. ill and the role of law enforcement in their response to these threats, when they do occur. it seems a little, the whole thing to this point seems a little idea logically bent and very superficial. >> well, i think you make a great point. if you look at this terrible incident. having this individual, where the police are going to his house dozens of times. where people in the school, not only know he's got serious problems. obviously he gets kicked out of the school, but people are predicting he would do something like this. it was a total breakdown in the local community, and that sheriff down there, who i think should resign and obviously some of the administrators it was a big dropped ball. of course there was a federal role here, because you had a very concrete tip.
4:36 am
phoned into the federal bureau of investigation, not just that he was a problem. not just that he was dangerous, but he was actually going to shoot up his school. and the fbi tip line, they did not even forward that to the miami field office. so, to me the biggest failure is that incompetence by both the fbi, and by the local officials. >> lou dobbs: yeah it is clear there is a massive-- talk about a breakdown. as you point out, the fbi is in the midst of a crisis. it's leadership-- is gives every appearance of being corrupt throughout its senior management. it gives every impression of being incompetent. report after report by the fbi is sought by the obama administration. those reports only a hand full of those reports ever saw the light of day. they were inconclusive and use as a shield to keep truth from
4:37 am
the american public. >> and what about accountability? so the fbi put out i thought that disasterouserrous statement the friday after the shooting. saying it was cloaked in the typical language of a bureaucracy about protocol was not fold. pass the buck. why haven't heads rolled? >> haven't people lost their jobs? that's part of the problem. when you have bur crassies bureaucracy without any accountable it makes the breakdowns more likely to happen. if people jobs were on the line because of their performance, then they would be less likely to fall through the cracks. >> lou dobbs: the director of the fbi making it very clear. saying clearly he believes that there's no problem at the fbi. that everything is just terrific. as if he has not paid attention to well what is happening in the firing of all of the, many of the folks in senior leadership already. that process is well underway.
4:38 am
and as if the leader of the department of justice, which the fbi is part, the attorney general is at odds with the president of the united states and acting as if the president is not a person who has a right to express his view about what should be done in the face of threats to the integrity of federal government. of the national security apparatus. it is mind boggling what we're witnessing. >> think about what's happened over the last six or seven months. obviously the bomb shell that the clintons and the dnc paid for this dossier. the fact that the dossier was so tral and the fact that there were midst representations all of the officials demoted or moved out of the government. and the inspector general, given what we know. that is not adequate. they don't have prosecutorial authority. they will take forever and a day. and these individuals it will be a report where there's
4:39 am
recommendations. there's a time and place for ig investigations. what we need right now given what we know. we need a special council assigned and the attorney general should pull the trigger on that. that we can really have someone focused on the malfeasance that occurred. >> lou dobbs: give what we know about the attorney general sessions, he seems low to do anything in a proactive, certainly a spirited manner in leading the justice department. do you think there is any chance in the world that he will actually do something affirmatively? >> you know, i would say when i'm back in florida i would say that's probably the number one frustration that a lot of voters have. particularly a lot of supporters of the president. they don't think there's been enough zeal in the justice department. and particularly with trying to deal with all of the problems that have happened in the previous administration. and so it is been a constant
4:40 am
source of frustration. we have a number of members. a huge critical mass now, who are laying out the need for a special council. think about all of the things that need to be investigated false statements by christopher steele. false statements potentially by comey. comey leaking the memos that had classified information. peter struck and how he was handled the 302s the fbi documents how they were interacting with congress. there's way more reason. >> lou dobbs: you're right. >> than there was. >> exactly and for the trump-russia coalition. remember when that special council was assigned they didn't identify the actually crime that was alleged to have occurred. and all of the investigation and dimes nothing has had anything to do with coalition, which is supposed to be the reason for the case. >> lou dobbs: congressman we are glad you are on the case. we appreciate it. thanks for being with us.

>> lou dobbs: first some spectators. that was a little close, wasn't it? they get a close and personal look at a hornet strike fighter in el cntro, california. a blue angel pilot as he prepares for the upcoming air show there in two weeks. i believe it is the tenth of marv march. we're coming back. more straight ahead. president trump urging republicans to gear up for the 2018 mid terms. >> president trump: we have a problem. we need more republicans. we have a big race. you have to get out. you have to get that enthusiasm. keep it going. >> how the g.o.p. can add to its >> how the g.o.p. can add to its majorities with announcer: leaving hot coals

>> lou dobbs: the dens in the national media are using the florida school shooting tragedy to push their gun control agenda. among the stories they're not covering. a foiled carjacking in milwaukee. the armed suspect tried to steal a car from a driver, who had a concealed carry permit and the gun to boot. actually had the permit and the
4:46 am
weapon, the driver pulled his own gun and shot the suspect. >> joining me rona mcdaniel. chairman of the republican national committee. great to have you with us. i was talking with ed rollins, who i think is the savviest, smartest, and the political analyst in the country. he says that the senate, the republicans that have an opportunity to get four or five extra seats in the senate and to hold their margin in the house. what do you think of his forecast. >> well, we're building towards that. the senate map is wonderful for us. 10 states where president trump with democrat incumbents all voting against the historic tax cut putting money back in the paychecks of middle class. improving wages and bringing jobs back to the country. they will have to defend that. >> lou dobbs: did you send those folks thank you cards. >> we have sent them thank you cards. we let their voters know all the time.
4:47 am
we're on the radio. we sent some of them crumb cakes in response to nancy pelossy calling these bonuses crumbs. >> lou dobbs: good for you. >> we want to remember that they didn't help their constituents. this country is benefiting under the leadership of president trump and the republican giving more money, more jobs, better wages. this is a come back. we want to keep it going by add together majority in the senate and the house. >> lou dobbs: as a matter of fact, when one looks at what this president has done. anyone who is dispassionate or, let's say passionate, but fair-minded. this country, he has in-- 13 months turned the country around. the confidence levels. as we're reporting now. consumer confidence, investor confidence. trillions of dollars added to the equity markets and 401ks and the democrats are walking around saying we want to take away your
4:48 am
constitutional right to own firearms. and we don't want you to get larger paychecks. and we want more of your money that you work for. what an idiotic, i'dotic manifesto for the lovely democrats to run on. >> they're the party of no. and resist. they have said no to bigger paychecks. they have said no to higher wages and bigger economy and greater country and a stronger military and isis on the run and supreme court judges that revere the sconce constitution. they said no to everything. we will say no to them in november. and we're going to keep this comeback coming with more republicans. the rnc has raised record money with the help of tress tress trump our greatest fundraiser and motivator for small dollar donations and made more voter contacts. we prepared to went in the mid terms. but it will take energy and urgency and the president was exactly right saying everyone has to be engaged it is all
4:49 am
hands on deck. the one thing democrats have is energy on their side. opposition is uniting they will come out. >> to match that. >> lou dobbs: ui know you almost have to say it is obvioustory for the chair of the rnc, but i don't see that energy on the part of the democrats, to be honest with you. i'm not arguing with you. it is just that i fail to see it. they haven't got a plan. they don't have a program. they don't even have an interesting ideas about what to do with our money, if they were able to cons fis skate more of it. they have no policy to which to say it was a aboveo ideas. we need more democrats. i don't see any energy. i mean you've got people running around talking about dreamers, like they're the only people in the country. and they're all democrats. >> their fundraising shows no energy. but we want our vote toes think they have energy and assume that, because we cannot become complacent. >> something to fight for. what president trump has done in
4:50 am
turning this country around and making america great again. it is something we have to fight for. we know where the democrats want to take us to the penaltyosi, schumer dark ages of stagnant growth and wages that's not what americans want it. will take all of us engaged in this election. it is important electing president trump is keeping the margeties in the senate and house. >> lou dobbs: will you be able to dissways messer ryan and mccouldn't conel to understand who party this is and who the leader is at the party? >> they see the energy at rnc. we had 500,000 new small dollar donors because of the president trump. go to the trump rally and see what propelled this movement. they have to see that. if we will keep the house and the senate. our candidates and our congressional members will have to embrace president trump, because there's nobody who motivates our base better than
4:51 am
him. >> lou dobbs: i have a great ideas. if they don't support this president, don't give them a damn nickel. how about that? >> i hear you. i will keep majorities i don't want the majority. >> lou dobbs: , we can't give it over to pelosi and schumer. we want those republican seats. >> lou dobbs: i'll give you some wiggle room. thank you so much. appreciate it. up next president trump versus mr. mcgo the war of words between the president and his highly ineffective attorney general. our panel is next. stay with us. we'll be right back.
