4:00 am
lou: good evening, everybody. the crisis at the southern border rages on. armed cartels smuggling drugs and illegal immigrants into the united states, murderers in mexico soaring to record levels. mexican troops intruding on american soil. president trump calling out the radical dimms for doing absolutely nothing to straighten out this nation's immigration laws. >> congress must also act to fix, however, our horrible obsolete weak pathetic immigration laws. they're seeing the drugs and they're seeing the human trafficking. the human trafficking is like
4:01 am
never before in our history. this is a world problem and it's happening all over the world. but for us it's through the southern border. lou: we'll have the latest on the fight for security of that southern border. former border patrol chief mark morgan joins us. the radical dimms, the deep state exposed for they three-year-long controversy to try to subvert and ultimately try to overthrow the press den oi f donald trump. the president declared it's time to prosecute the conspirators and all who supported them. >> this has been litigated for the last two years almost since i got into office. now if you want to litigate, go after the dnc, crooked hillary, the dirty cops, all of these things, that's what should be litigated, because that was a rigged system. lou: we take a look at the origins of what is the biggest political scandal in our
4:02 am
nation's history. tom fitton, sebastian gorka and byron york joins us tonight. and diamond and silk with us as well. top story, killings, corruption and caravans at our southern border. president trump today warned of a caravan of thousands moving through mexico now on their way to the u.s. border. and the president says he will shut down sections of the border if the mexican government fails to stop those illegal immigrants. and the president warning as well, the mexican government should well understand they better not send troops across our border again. and never ever pull weapons on americans. the president tweeted this, quote, mexico's soldiers recently pulled guns on our national guard soldiers, probably as a diversionary tactic for drow drug smugglers e border. better not happen again.
4:03 am
we're now sending armed soldier to the border. mexico is not doing nearly enough no apprehending and returning. joining us now, mark morgan, former border patrol chief under president obama. great to have you with us. i guess the first question has to be, these troops along the border, their commander is sending them out on supposedly surveillance with one m9.9-millimeter pistol between them. what kind of madness is that? they don't understand the cartel's control. that border. >> i think we learned a good lesson that the border patrol agents have known for decades that's what's happened. and the president was spot on, is that there is so much corruption on the mexican side, both mexican law enforcement and mexican military. they're being paid by the cartels to be used as listing post, observation posts and distractions. this isn't anything new for the border patrol.
4:04 am
they've encountered this before. lou: they've encountered it, soldiers. the president has -- i mean when they hear from the commander in chief that this won't happen again, the mexican government, do you think that they understand it better not happen again? >> lou, absolutely. and that's spot on. this president unequivocally, when he does that, that's why he has the backing of the border patrol and other law enforcement entities. how powerful and strong of a message that is. he told the mexican government it better not happen again. and i tell you, if it does, i think there's going to be ramifications and that's why i support this president on this issue. lou: and this president, talking about sending more armed soldiers to the border, you have to question, you have to question what in the world the commanders of those soldiers were thinking in sending those people out on a surveillance mission, any kind of mission at that corrupt boar border controd
4:05 am
by cartels. we see pictures every day, if you want to pull them up, of cartel members armed with semi-automatic rifles, ak-47s, ar-15s, you name it.. and here is an infrared picture of the cartels escorting a woman and a kid across the border. i mean -- and these folks are carrying heavy 762 weapons. it's outrageous. and we've got u.s. soldiers, national guardsmen out there in the middle of nowhere with an m-9. what were they going to do, flip it back and forth to one another when they had a shot? i mean it's asinine that the u.s. military would have commanders that would order that and permit it. >> well, lou, i don't want to second geaz th guess the commann
4:06 am
the battlefield. lou: so stup lated. that is a battlefield and it's moronic of those commanders to put those soldiers in harm's way like that. absolutely. now so stipulated. i don't want to put you in a bad position. you fire away at whatever you want to say. >> no. i think it's well said, lou. and i understand the point. i don't disagree with that. i hope the rules of engagement are going to be looked at. this was a wake-up call, not only the engagement between the soldiers but the e episode you talked about armed with ak-47 cartel members in camouflage uniforms. that border is dangerous, not a safe place. i hope they're rethinking the rules of engagement along the southwest border for the protection of our soldier and personnel. lou: the only excuse i can think of for the commanders in the national guard, superior officers of those two soldiers is that they're watching fake news, they're believing democrats when they say there's no crisis. they're obviously not informed
4:07 am
on what is transpiring right before their very eyes. the cartels are clearly exploiting this opportunity. the president talking about a caravan with as many as 20,000 central american illegal immigrants headed toward the united states. the mexican government making much of having dissuaded 500 of them from continuing their journey. that leaves 19,500 more. the president has said today straightforwardly to mexico, stop them and stop all of them. >> that's right. here's something i've been saying too. look, we've been giving millions of dollars to the northern countries. we've been trying to get mexico to get off of the sidelines and be proactive partners in this resolution. nothing has happened. congress failed to do their job. nothing has happened. so we really need to rechange our mind-set and we need to stop relying on any of these people to do what they should be doing and we've got to take control of
4:08 am
this and do what we need to do. so when the president tells mexico you need to get off of the sidelines, do your darn job to be part of the solution here or we're shutting down the border, i think he's right on and i support him. lou: and the idea that this new president, manuel lopez observ e dorr. this president has reached out to him. twice his, i think, believed, i don't know this for a fact, but he's intim mate intimated that t he had a deal with the mexican government. it hasn't worked out. that means somebody is breaking their word in mexico. it also means that that opportunity for man well lopez observe ra door is going to
4:09 am
evaporate quickly if he doesn't take this opportunity. the corruption that is mexico right now, most americans don't understand how pervasive it is, how much of mexico it controls. and as you were pointing out, how much of that border they control. and by the way, the murder rate in mexico, already the murder capital of the world, mexico's homicides already this year have risen by almost 10% over last year. last year a record number of murders and killings, nearly all of them, nearly all of them as a result of cartel drug violence. you know, what do you think the president should do? what can the united states do other than build the dad gum wall and enforce the doggone border. >> lou, that's it. you really summarized a very complex issue succinctly there.
4:10 am
we've shown the history. mexico, they ebb and flow. they've shown decade after decade they're not going to be part of the solution. the american people need to understand, the u.s.-mexico border, the cartels own 100% of that. unless the governor of mexico can address the cartels, the problem on their side is going to exist. i think the president has to stay the course of what he's doing. he has to build the wall. get more technology, more personnel, drive to fix the laws of the ppra to end catch and release, continue to drive the politicians in this country do their job for this country. he's on the right track, doing the right thing and i hope he doesn't stop. lou: i don't think the man has got stop in him. mark, i thanker you very much for being us with and for your insight. appreciate it. still ahead, president trump time-outtime-outs his long listf
4:11 am
achievements. >> they're doing the best it's been. unemployment numbers are the best they've ever been. doing well with trade, well with china. things are going good. lou: things are going good. that is one of the mt.'s rare understatements. we'll have much were with diamond and silk tonight. up next, president trump slams the radical dimms and their never ending efforts to obstruct his presidency. tom fitton joins us we'll talk about the origins of the witch hunt and corruption that pervades the fbi and the department of justice. stay with us. we'll be right back. ♪ limu emu & doug mmm, exactly! liberty mutual customizes your car insurance, so you only pay for what you need. nice! but uh, what's up with your partner? oh! we just spend all day telling everyone how we customize car insurance

4:15 am
lou: president trump today took on house judiciary chairman jerry nadler and his subpoena, a former white house council don mcgann. >> the subpoena is ridiculous. we have been -- i have been the most transparent president and administration in the history of our country by far. we just went through the mueller witch hunt and they came up with no collusion and they actually also came up with no obstruction. i say it's enough.
4:16 am
get back to infrastructure, get back to cutting taxes, get back to lowering drug prices. that's what -- really, that's what we should be doing. lou: and failed 2016 presidential candidate hillary clinton, she has surfaced again to claim the only thing preventing an indictment against president trump is that he's in the office. the president's attorney rudy giuliani says hillary should, well, think before she talks. >> there's a woman who really obstructed justice. the president didn't delete 33,000 e-mails, he didn't have somebody smash up telephones and he didn't have someone wipe out a server and bleach bit it. there used to be a standing policy you cannot indict a clinton no matter how much they obstruct justice, no matter how much evidence they destroy and no matter how often they lie and no matter how often they commit perjury. you can't indict a clinton.
4:17 am
lou: that's going to be tested, it may appear. joining us tonight, judicial watch president, tom fitton. great to have you with us. let's start with you dish watch's discovery of clinton e-mails in the white house. how could that be? >> it's amazing. we forced this disclosure out of the fbi. look, a federal court ran a you dish watch discovery in the clinton e-mail scandal late last year. found it. one of the gravest modern offenses in the transparency, authorized us to send written questions to the top fbi official responsible for the clinton e-mail investigation and the russian investigation. and he responded to us under oath in writing that they found clinton e-mail in, among other places, the executive office of the president of the obama white house. so if you want to know why hillary clinton skated, it's because, as this evidence demonstrates, one testimony in
4:18 am
the fbi because the obama white house and barack obama are implicated in the scandal. lou: that's the bottom line here. and that implication is going to lead us where? >> well, it ought to lead to at least the reopening of the investigation. look, in just the last two months or so, we've had -- you dish watch -- lou: clinton investigation. >> right. you dish watch uncovered five classified e-mails among the e-mails that hillary clinton tried to delete or destroy. lou: right. >> fbi notes of the sham investigation, the first one in 2016, and the notes literally say, clinton coverup operation. they're quoting her i.t. team using that phrase. lou: say that again. >> clinton coverup operation. lou: that's extraordinary. >> so they got it -- lou: did he sign it? that would be an open and shut case, right? >> well the fbi has evidence documenting quote a clinton
4:19 am
cover-up operation and mrs. clinton this week is complaining that someone like president trump would have been dieted but for if fact he was president. lou: expect there was no crime. there's no obstruction. other than that it would have been a problem. >> yeah, other than having no crime there. but as mayor julian an giulianis out, you've got the evidence with her e-mail campaign. the russia investigation began with her and it was begun to protect her. because they knew if the eye of justice focused on anything other than hillary clinton, she would have been prosecuted and a lot of other people around her, including in the obama administration would have faced justice. now that the mueller investigation and the russia hoax has been exposed as the fraud it is, now maybe the eye of justice can focus on hillary clinton. in the meantime judicial watch is conducting discovery. we have witnesses coming in being questioned under oath.
4:20 am
it's incredible that we're doing this and the justice department is yet to get its act together. in fact they've been fighting us on this. lou, there's a lot of reform necessary to get some justice in this town, that's for sure. lou: are they still fighting you even after the arrival of william barr, the attorney general? >> yes. lou: and have you taken that up with the attorney general's office? >> no, i have not. and for instance, you know, we're taking the depositions of these individuals and there's videotapes of the depositions and the justice department has come in and said those videotapes should not be public and that serve to protect these former obama and clinton top aides. it's unbelievable. lou: so it sounds like someone within the justice department and the fbi, they're trying very hard to perpetuate a level of political corruption that i can't belief william barr would permit. >> well, you know, the
4:21 am
charitable interpretation is he's only there a few months and he's had other things on his plate. but i suggest he focuses on being on the right side of the effort to get the truth on hillary clinton and what she was up to. lou: president trump said a very, i think very important thing about transparency. and i want to get your judgment about it. he said that this is the most transparent administration in history. i think without question by light years it is certainly the most transparent compared to certainly the obama administration which was one of the least, even though president obama promised his would be transparent. what is your reaction to the president's statement? >> i think at the presidential level he's absolutely right. the white house has been an open book relatively speaking, especially with their unprecedented cooperation with the mueller witch hunt. lou: absolutely. >> certainly the president's
4:22 am
tweets over which he's criticized. lou: who criticizes candor, directness, straightforwardness and a direct statement to the american people every day. >> remarkable and historic tran parentcy by the president. the president should bring that transparency he brings to his tweets to the rest of his agencies and telling everyone look, the coverup for the deep state is over. it's all hands on deck in terms of getting all of these documents out to those who have been investigating, like judicial watch, the state department, the cia, the nsa, justice fbi, all of that deep state conspiracy against the president and the republic. lou: and you used the word hoax, that it's over. this was an attempt to overthrow the president. on this broadcast i'm not going to use the word hoax again. it was an effort to overthrow the president of the united states. there's nothing benign about this and nothing trivial.
4:23 am
i hope that the president -- i hope that the attorney general starts prosecuting everyone within the justice department, the fbi, the deep state, the democratic party certainly, anyone connected with that conspiracy. >> crimes were committed, lou. they targeted the president in a sense and these crime victims vs need, vindicated through justice department that's for sure. this ought to be priority one for the attorney general. lou: tom finton, thank you very much. it's the only way to ensure what the president wants, that no president ever have to contend with what he has had to contend since the day he not only was inaugurated but for months as candidate. the u.s. navy -- tom, thanks so much for being with us. >> you're welcome. lou: the u.s. navy preparing new guidelines for its pilots on how to report ufo sightings.
4:24 am
there have been strange sightings of things like you see on your screen in the little box, unauthorized, unidentified aircraft that is under the control of the military. despite no confirmed encounters with aliens, the navy is updating its processes so that investigators can look into each report. the truth is out there. up next, what a kim-putin meeting means for north korea's nuclear talks with the united states. we take that up and more right after this next break. lou: red storm rising.
4:28 am
4:29 am
contacts with those chinese agents. they gave her thousands of dollars in gifts in exchange for internal u.s. state department documents. she was arrested in march of 2017 and will be sentenced this july. she faces up to five years in prison. spain's foreign minister today praising china and its belt and road initiative and then going on to say, quote, the belt road is proof that china is no longer considering itself a net receiver and starts considering itself a contributor to the world and this is something that spain welcomes. what spain is really welcoming is all of that money that the chinese have given them. joining us tonight, gordon chang. great to have you with us. first, your reaction to the guilty plea in spying if are the chinese and then i have to ask you a five-year sentence for
4:30 am
spying if are the chinese. >> yeah, that's nothing. i mean really what we're talking about here is china's grain of sand approach. they take everybody, students, scholars, business people and of course state department employees. our government is totally rit ld. riddled. you had vopt pence talk about the need to protect ourselves. this conviction explains why we need the whole of government approach. lou: and you almost have to scratch your head to think of how few arrests there have been, at least publicly made here. it's very difficult to get a picture from our government as to what they're find in the way of webs, cells and connections throughout the country that are fronts for espionage against the united states, chinese fronts for espionage. we've known for 20 years that they're here doing precisely this and we haven't acted.
4:31 am
how can that be? >> this is just stunning. we've known, for instance, about this 2017 chinese national intelligence law that requires every chinese national to spy for beijing if required. and that's the communist party system. and yet we allowed all of the nationals into our country, some in very sensitive positions. lou: what would happen if we had a law, every american abroad must spy for the united states of america. can you imagine google, they would have to hire thousands of psychiatrists for many of their employees. >> but you know, lou, one of the things here, it's not just -- i can understand why the chinese want to spy but i can't understand, you know, people in the united states saying let the chinese spy. on saturday in the "washington post" there was an op-ed on saturday with the title of something like, we should let the chinese spy on us. lou: there it is. >> yeah. and really, this is just
4:32 am
ridiculous. you know, this is in a major newspaper. lou: written by a bloomberg columnist. >> and his argument is absurd if you read through the history of it. lou: can we put that up again? there are occasions where we cross the boundary of the absurd and i think we should linger just to take in fully what is in the public consciousness now in our nation's capital. this headline, we should let china spy orch us. on us. this is madsness. >> it is madness. we've allowed this to continue for too long. now it's very important that the american people take back their country and we've got to continue to do this. lou: we've got to continue to do it. this president is doing everything he can. but right now it looks as though the elites are organized around a very central idea that is
4:33 am
straightforwardly they want to remain in control and they will persist in harassing, impeding, subverting this president now that they've lost their opportunity to actually overthrow him. and the effect this has on foreign policy, the leverage it gives foreign leaders, whether they're xi jinping, vladimir putin, kim jong-un, however it may be, it's absolutely unacceptable that the republican leadership permits this to go on without a voice, a uniform united voice saying enough of this nonsense. leave this president alone and get to work. >> you know, what's really disheartening is you have a lot of elites in this country saying you can't criticize the chinese, this is mccarthyism, a term they've been using from a number of people. if you want to go after the chinese, this is just wrong.
4:34 am
lou: who is saying that? >> susan thorton, a number of people saying, this is mccarthyism. lou: criticize the chinese. >> the criticize the chinese. and this is just wrong. i mean -- lou: yes, it is wrong. it's idiotic. but idiocy seems to be the order of the day in the capital of the swamp, wawrkdz if there's any confusion about that. gordon chang, thanks for being here to reduce the confusion. we appreciate it. still ahead, president trump standing strong against the radical dimms never-ending harassment and attempted subversion. we take that up later tonight. dr. sebastian gorka kb byron york among our guests. up next, president trump takes on the opioid crisis. >> we're all americans, we are all one family and we know that we are the strongest when no one is left behind. my administration is committed
4:35 am
to ensuring that every citizen can live with dignity and purpose and proudly pursue the american dream. lou: we'll have that, much more right after the break. social media stars diamond and silk with us tonight. we'll be right back. stay with us. these are difficult times for elderly holocaust survivors. with no food and no heat they get weaker and more die everyday.
4:36 am
i want you to see their faces. look into their eyes that are haunted still by the memories of the past. they desperately need our help now. a simple blanket, food and medicine are life-saving during the holiday season. these are people who often have to go for days without food. this woman would die in a matter of days or weeks without our help. cold, sick, weak; the jewish people have suffered so much pain in their lives. please call now and say that you will give a special gift of $25 that will help bring these lifesaving essentials to a holocaust survivor.
4:37 am
are we going to hear the cries of the oppressed? or are we going to be silent to them? are we going to feed the hungry? to clothe the naked? and not avert our eyes from our fellow flesh and blood. the fellowship is faced with desperate pleas for food blankets and medicine. for only $25 you can help save a life with the gift of food, a blanket and medicine to a holocaust survivor suffering all alone during this holiday season. i hope and pray you will do so before time is up and it is too late.
4:39 am
atlanta today head lining a summit on the opioid crisis focusing on stemming the deadly flow of drugs into the country. >> my administration has also embarked on an unprecedented effort to shut down online criminal networks, crackdown on illegal international shipments and stop the deadly flow of drugs into our country. in the past two years customs and border protection seize meth and cocaine and heroin and fentanyl at the southern border are up 45% and going up much higher. lou: now as mark morgan pointed out on this broadcast at the top, the border is corrupt. and corrupt on both sides and the cartels control the border. opioids responsible for 47,600 overdose deaths in 2017 alone. the latest numbers, that's nearly 68% by the way of all overdose deaths in the country.
4:40 am
pennsylvania's favorite son, joe biden apparently set to announce his candidacy tomorrow online, if that makes a difference. he's going to visit pittsburgh on monday, i guess it is. he will be coinciding with pennsylvania's unemployment report. by the way, the unemployment rate in pennsylvania, the favorite son will have a little head wind it appears in pennsylvania if he ends up being the nominee because president trump has, well, he's managed to get the unemployment rate there down to 3.9%. that's the lowest unemployment rate on record for the state of pennsylvania. and by the way, the name is president trump. joining us tonight, social media superstars, president trump's most loyal supporter, diamond and silk, host of the fox nation show named, you got it "diamond
4:41 am
and silk." great to have you with us. great to have you. >> thank you for having us. >> what have you got, 20 candidates for the democratic party running against this president who's done more in just over two years than bush in eight and obama in eight, that's 16 years of do nothing against two years of historic performance. your thoughts. >> well you're absolutely right. and a lot of these people in the congress and the senate, if they haven't done nothing while they were serve in congress and the senate, then we know they're not going to do anything for our country. we already have a president. his name is donald j. trump. he has the unemployment at an all-time low, home ownership among latinos a at an all time high. that's what we want leading this country. a man who takes action. unlike the people like the joe bidens and all of the other ones, they don't take no action.
4:42 am
they go missing in action and we can't find them until they need a vote. and they will say and do anything they have to to get a vote. >> there's no way that barack obama can take credit for the economy because he's the one with a lot of red tape in place. he's the one who said you have to wave a magic wand in order for the jobs to come back. we weafdz the magic wand, we got president trump and he cut the red tape. lou: you know, i want to get back to ma magic wand in just a minute. rabbi abraham cooper blasting the "the new york times" and congresswoman omar for claiming jesus was palestinian, not jewish, accusing the times as well of fake news. your reaction. >> you know twb omar and her etiology, i have a problem -- and i'm a person of color, so i don't want people to think i'm being racist toward omar. but i have a problem with their own etiology trying to push it off on other people and they're
4:43 am
acting like they hate this country yet they migrated to this country. she needs to check herself and she really need to watch the rhetoric that comes from her mouth because it offends americans and causes american to react and respond. >> that's right. lou: well i have a problem because she's outright anti-semitic. but other than that she seems to be off to a horrible start in congress for the reasons you suggest. you mentioned the obama magic wand. i've got an idea for you tonight. and i want to see if you can do that. could you put up the video of diamond and silk's online store here? because i've got this great idea and i'm going to -- i want to propose it to you free of charge. but i'm thinking of the obama magic wand that you could put in there with all of the merchandise, all of the great merchandise. it would just be -- well what do you think of that idea?
4:44 am
>> i think that's a good idea. >> we'll have it right on the wand. lou: so to get to the store, we go to diamondandsilk.com. >> don't forget we have our chitchat more alabama on may 18th. get your chitchat tickets. lou: let's go back to the store again. i don't mean literally. let me ask you something about the store. i was just thinking, you know, for "lou dobbs" tonight watchers, i'm just thinking this, maybe a little discount. what do you think? can you work that out? >> oh, yeah. we can do that. lou: all right. >> what would you like? lou: i'm a heck of a negotiator. i didn't get the amount of the discount or anything else but anyway, we've got an idea. it's great to see you guys and it's diamondandsilk.com.

4:50 am
unimpressed with the radical left's cast of 2020 presidential hopefuls. but even less impressed with their constant attacks on him. >> the democrats are trying to win 2020. they're not going to win with the people that i see. and they're not going to win against me. the only way they can luck out is by constantly going after me on nonsense. lou: joining us now, byron york, chief political correspondent for the washington examine and fox business contributor come so sebastian gorka. good to have you both here. let me start with you s sebasti. you were with the president
4:51 am
earlier this week. how relieved is he at the end of the witch hunt and how angry is he and intent on bringing to justice those people who tried to overthrow his presidency? >> well, lou, back in may of 2017 it was just the two of us in the oval office and the president said, with regards to russia, they will find nothing because they th there is nothin. we had to wait two years, spend $35 million to have that confirmed. of course he's relieved. but if you look at what's happening with regards to impeachment, it's absolutely mind numbing. lou: not even the radical dimms in my judgment are dumb enough, dumb enough to go there. i mean, they are dim, there's no question about it. but that dumb? byron, what do you think?
4:52 am
>> well, you know, i think with the democrats you really have three groups right now, the zealots on capitol hill who do want to go impeach and impeach as soon as they can. then you have a lot of democrats, some of them newly elected who would just like to lay low, not do impeachment, not alienate a lot of their voters. and the last group is this group running for president who, i think, are -- it's always easy to attack the president. but i believe they're becoming more and more interested in differentiating themselves from each other. so would you like to have the boston marathon bomber be able to vote in prison? i mean they're going to start, you know, tripping themselves up over questions like that. lou: and they're tripping themselves up with these ridiculous efforts of the committee chairman to subpoena the president of the united states. subpoenaing the president's counselor, his attorney, don mcgann, and you've got a
4:53 am
