4:01 am
nancy pelosi announced an impeachment inquiry on the part of the congress. the speaker and her radicals ignored a number of critically important but difficult facts for the radical dems including the so-called whistleblower who didn't have first-hand knowledge of the phone call, may not have a protected whistleblower status as all if working outside the intelligence community, and who still remains an unidentified person as of this hour. for the latest including the president's reaction, we turn to edward lawrence in washington. >> president trump taking to quit twitter to respond to the announcement. the president and the series of tweets calling this a witch hunt
4:02 am
by saying presidentialma harassment -- presidential harassment. he's shocked this process is starting. >> this is why they say it's good for the election. but you know what? it's bad for the country. how can you do this if you haven't seen the phone calls. >> reporter: the house speaker telling the american people the president violated the constitution because his administration ordered the acting director national intelligence to with hold whistleblower complaints from congress. >> i'm directing our six committees to proceed under that umbrella of impeachment inquiry. the president must be held accountable, no one is above the law. reporter: the republicans responded within the last hour. kevin mccarthy says democrats
4:03 am
are playing a dangerous political game. >> this election is over. i realize 2016 did not turn out the wait speaker pelosi wanted it to happen. but she cannot change the laws of the congress. she cannot unilaterally decide to hold an impeachment your inquiry. it's no different than what nadler has been trying to do. it's time the put the public before politics. >> reporter: the democrats point to withholding aid to the ukraine. the white house today saying ohio senator rob port man pushed for the aid * to go to ukraine before it got impounded for being unused. >> my advocacy for getting this military said there was so the ukrainians can defend
4:04 am
themselves. this money would be spent in the united states. it would be provided to the ukrainians. that was the religion was given as to why the funds were not released. i agree with that. we needed to be doing more to pressure our our mean friends and nato in particular to help ukraine. >> this is the start of the impeachment process. the investigation begins to see if articles of impeachment should be drawn up. lou, you can decide for yourself if it warrant this action. lou: i will, i guarantee you, as will all of america. john roberts earlier today described what the democrats have done is a leap off a hightower into what appears to be a shallow pool. we'll soon know. but it looks like a high-risk proposition. >> to satisfy the base, there
4:05 am
were a growing number of democrats, and moderate saying impeach the president. 2/3 of the democrats in the house. but now nancy pelosi will control what happens. we'll see. lou: now we can blame, i guess, the various districts of the various radical dems, including nadler and schiff rather than them. they are just simply representing their constituents. all of it seems like a swirl of poppycock and bull to me. it's early days. we'll see. edwarned lawrence, so much. joining me, harmeet dhillon. rnc committee woman for the great state of california. and a member of the trump 2020 vision are you council. i d advisory counsel.
4:06 am
i watched the speaker today stave she is going to do with jerry nadler has been begging her to do and what he has been engaged in for weeks now. no questions please for the august speaker because she is talking about real work. meernl while the, the house has d meanwhile the house hasn't done any work. what law was broken and how do they know that crime was committed? it's a bizarre moment in history. they look like a hapless bunch of no-nothings trying to find relevance. >> it's bead welderring. i'm -- it's bewildering. pushing back on the squad and all the other people, but today she sort of gave in. you are next, the facts don't
4:07 am
matter. the law doesn't matter. the will of the american people who don't support impeachment inquiry. all at matters is short-term gain. i think it will be destructive for democrats and the american flus our democracy. the president has been dealing with this witch hunt since before his inauguration. lou: he's made it clear that he clears a path for achievement. look at what he has done, despite the nonsense from what is supposed to be a imrair -- tf opposition and turns into obstructionists. the big question is what will the republicans do in defense? and today mark meadows tea monks
4:08 am
on the -- amongst others stepping up. kevin mccarthy, bless his heart. it's like he doesn't have a pulse. we are talking about the president of the united states being harassed and subverted. what does it take to light a fire under the leadership in the house and senate? >> it's disappointing. but i am hoping they will get themselves together and push bang on the democrats and call this what it is. this is tearing up the constitution and doing what they can to subvert the will of the people. this is a coup. the last time republicans tried to do this it didn't end up well for republicans. we need to call them out and take it to them. i haven't seen that so far today. mitch mcconnell's comments were
4:09 am
helpful either. lou: do they need resuscitation? what can we do for them to let them know they have important jobs and responsibility to the american people and certainly to the republican party. >> i agree. the good news is the american people don't support that. everybody checks with their pollsters, i hope they will figure it out. lou, it's politics. it isn't the finest and brightest shining examples of high principle here unfortunately. lou: we are look at senate bill 386. every one of those wags in the senate republican clucking like chickens heading to feed on the ground because the chamber of commerce wants them to have illegal immigrants bill of
4:10 am
rights. we talked today, for example, the american hospital association. they oh posts it outright because d they oppose it outright. it's absolutely an assault on the working men and women in this country. the president's base, i should point out. middle class, small business, independents. it looks like we'll see a substantial number of minorities, hispanics and african-americans join that base in 2020. why in the world would anyone in that senate be permitted to disturb the president's inertia -- excuse me, his momentum, and trajectory? >> you are right. when you go back to the core issue of this sue crane situation. both parties have been pushing for our government to give money
4:11 am
away and munitions to wealthy foreign countries. this president has opposed that. be it nato, ukraine, south korea. that's consistent. he should be applaud for asking questions for handing out american stuff. there is an industrial complex here that wants those munitions spent and pay for and given to everybody who asks. i'm confident when this tape comes out tomorrow that the president will be' -- no president then is free to do this job of foreign policy and it will be a bad day for america. lou: that's not going to happen because it isn't the law and it isn't what the founders investigationed, being
4:12 am
hamstrung -- envisions being hamstrung. we are talking about the 386. the feature does not belong to the globalists. the future belongs to patriots, the future belongs to sovereign and independent nations who protect their citizens, respect their neighbors, and honor the differences that made each country special and unique. >> amen. lou: that sounds like truth and our destiny. >> absolutely. it was a great speech he gave at the u.n. the general assembly today. we need more of that. lou: the charade is to pretend the democrats are going to participate in government. what this president has done he has done on his own without often his own party. if we did not have this
4:13 am
president in office, we would really be subject to the madness that is led by chuck schumer and nancy pelosi. and of course the seven freshmen congressmen signing op-eds, aoc and the squad ored quad. wastquad. lou: the radical dimms want to build an inquisition with jerrold nadler. we'll be taking up the latest developments expected to occur tomorrow including vice president mike pence and my interview with him. be sure to tune in for the
4:14 am
conversation, 7:00 p.m. eastern. president trump takes on the globalist elite. >> wise leaders always put the good of their own people and their own country first. the future does not belong to globalists. the future belongs to patriots. lou: the president delivering a message to those open border advocates and activists. pushing illegal immigrants into the u.s. has become a high-paying proposition for them. but not so much a good idea for the rest of working america. we'll have that and much more right after the break. stay with us. ♪ limu emu & doug hour 36 in the stakeout. as soon as the homeowners arrive, we'll inform them that liberty mutual customizes home insurance, so they'll only pay for what they need. your turn to keep watch, limu. wake me up if you see anything.

control of the company. 2009 term executives will serve at co-ceos. it turns out perhaps that weed and tequila aren't the way to go for corporate success as adam newman has just found out. a reminder to listen to my reports three times a day coast to coast on the salem radio network. nancy pelosi tweeting such an important day at the united nations. so much work, so much success, and the democrats purposely had to ruin and demight with more breaking -- demean it with more breaking news bad news. adam schiff and maxine waters. they never even saw the transcript of the call. a total witch hunt. presidential harassment.
4:20 am
joining us, june jeanine pirro. the author of "radicals, resistance, and revenge." great to have you with us. congratulations on the book. the president as always, he's the master of the twitter-verse. nailing it. upstaging the president and without any evidence, without any knowledge they just press on. >> i must tell you, before even getting into the ukraine issue, in my book i talk about the fact that every time the president is doing something favorable to the american people, somebody writing an article closing in on donald trump. mueller closing in. the russian connection, closing in. this is part of their
4:21 am
philosophy. this ways they do. this is what they do to cover up what he's doing and the feeling he need to be impeached. what happened today was disgusting. nobody knows what was said. let's assume -- lou: we do. the president said what was said. he said it was perfect. and he said somebody need to look into biden. and he's right on both counts. and the suggestion no one knows. the president told us. >> according to the dems, they don't know. they were the ones starting the impeachment. once he gets the transcript tomorrow, once it's released according to his decision. then they will run around like they did with mueller, russia, racism, recession, now ukraine.
4:22 am
lou: don't forget kavanaugh. >> they feel comfortable denying people the presumption of innocence. > lou: that an outrage against the country, our values, and our law. >> the american people in this mess are losing. for the next whatever it is, 12 months, 18 months, they will do nothing but trash the president. >> the way i look at that, they will trash the president no matter what. here is as man who preside over the most of successful economy in presidential history. and the american people are benefiting whether they are democrat or republican. it's what he promised when he ran. prosperity for everybody. he delivered. he restored this country's self of self, identity and traditional values.
4:23 am
and the radical dimms have no path to victory. >> they are complicit with them. that's way was saying. whenever the president said when we have something to positive to say about the american people. that's when the media said they are closing in on them, whether it was the "new york times," "vanity fair." >> does anybody keep track of all that? he should be impeached. he lied. the fact is the fake news is as he brand it. it's the fake news and it's their fake corporate reasoners at work here. it's outrageous. didn't you love the speech at the flaits. globalism is over. >> global i'm is over. >> socialism doesn't have a chance. america is proud of its history and heritage. and you are not going to rewrite
4:24 am
it or change it. he was great. >> we are talking about people not necessarily paying attention to all of the events. and i understand that as well as you do, i'm sure. but they should pay attention to this. if the radical dimms persist in the direction they are going. selling off 240 points because of their nonsense. they are not only the party of hate, they are the party of destruction. they destroy opportuniti', all of which this president has created, generated and brought back in a period of prosperity that could last, i don't see a horizon of limits on that prosperity. as long as he is in office. >> the radicals who are going to resist him go first and further left to the point where i have a chapter in the book called the
4:25 am
democrat clown car. where they trip over each other. one in front of the camera to say we are going to impeach him. but listen to me. we still have to impeach the guy even though there is no russia closing. for what? adam schiff thinks they have something to get their teeth into it and they will shoot themselves in the foot and he's going to win in 2020 and that's the end of that chapter. lou: appreciate it. justice with judge jeanine host. and this her best-selling book, radicals resistance and revenge. it's all the rage. thanks so much. appreciate. president trump says america is done with endless wars but is prepared for any military action necessary. president trump: after having
4:26 am
4:30 am
4:31 am
leaders will have turned a proud nation into just another cautionary tale of what happens when a ruling class abandons its people and embarks on and crew of said for personal power and riches. lou: joining us to take all of this up. congressman scott perry, a member of the foreign affairs committee and the house freedom caucus. i know you have got some honors in uniform i want to share with the audience. colonel perry command the 204 there general support aviation what taflian in iraq 2004-2010. flew combat miss and retired
4:32 am
after 30 years in uniform. we applaud your service if i may say. >> thanks, lou. i want to say happy birthday to you. it's a birthday you are not soon going to forget. lou: as the years go on some of them fade just a little bit. i'll be honest. let's turn to the president's straightforward denunciation of globalism. his denunciation of iran and its support of global terrorism, and its responsibility for the actions it's taken the last several months. your thoughts. >> my thoughts are if you listen to that speech today and you love your country, you are proud as an american and beaming pride. i sure am and i was at the moment that he took on the globalists, the
4:33 am
transnationallists, the criminals, the thugs, the oppressionors. -- the oppressors. they and their representatives were sitting in front of him. he said we are not going to apologize for being the good guys. we don't tolerate and accept that behavior. if you are going to continue to do business with iran and put profits above safety and security for the people of the world and your one require, then we have something to say about it and you should be ashamed of yourself. it's a wonderful message to say this kind of behavior from this rogue dictatorship cannot continue, and the world cannot continue to support it. lou: for years he said these abuses have been tolerated.
4:34 am
if we can roll that sound to share with the audience. i am going to keep staring at this camera. president trump: wise leaders always put the good of their own people and their own country first. the future does not belong to globalists. the future belongs to patriots. the future belongs to sovereign and independent nations. who protect their citizens. lou: congressman, the president making it absolutely clear this is sovereign nation. it's going to adhere to its founding values and its exceptionalism and respect, law and order. everything that made this country great. i have to stay, it was a speech to a general assembly united
4:35 am
nations. i'm glad the country got to hear it as well. >> i'm sure the folks at the united nations aren't used hearing anything like that. the last 40 years, people in some star chamber telling everybody around the world how you are going to go comport your immigration program. and they had complicity in american leadership the last few years. this president said we are going to respect the will of the american people, the sovereignty of our country and he's urging the other countries to respect the will of their people of and sovereignty of other nations. it's a message that's long overdue. lou: it's a message that can't be overcome by the radical dimms. >> he's supporting their
4:36 am
4:40 am
funding of $5 billion. the senate republicans will have to battle the house now. the radical dimms blocked any border wall funding earlier this year. president trump today used his address to the u.n. general assembly to send a message to the open borders people. president trump: your policies are cruel and evil. you are empowering criminal organizations that prey on innocent men, women and children. you undermine border security, you are undermining human rights and human dignity. lou: i can almost hear the entire nation applauding the president. joining us now, a man i know applaud the president's
4:41 am
statements. brandon judd. i don't know if you knew how strong he would be on the issues of sovereignty and border security and illegal immigration. but i have to say it was an extraordinary speech in all respects. >> that couldn't have been stated any more eloquently. he's taking the case directly to the american public. he's calling the democrats out for their hypocrisy. they refuse to enter into an honest conversation because they know they are going to lose on the facts. what he's doing is he's specifically going to the american public and making the case, and he's giving them the facts and letting them decide. that's a very good day for border patrol agents. it's a very good thing that's happening. a couple months ago i wrote an op-ed that said lou dobbs is going to shortly get this
4:42 am
dreams, illegal immigration will go down. president trump without any help from congress is single handedly causing those numbers to go back down and we'll soon hit 45-year lows again. lou: without this president in office and all he brings to that office. his intelligence, his guts, and his vision. and to think that the radical dimms are playing stupid political theatrical games in the house of representatives. it's sickening. and everywhere else. their politics of personal destruction. and they will pay. mark my word. they will pay one hell of a price at the polls in 2020. >> they go out to the border just for op-eds, they go out to the border solely to call border
4:43 am
patrol agents nazis. they say we are running prison camps and concentration camps. they say this is what the problem is so we can come to solutions. all they want to do is make this a political issue. when in reality if they would sit down and look at what's going on, they would say we have got to stop the misery and suffering these individuals are going through because they are putting themselves in the hand of cartels because of my policy. it's their policies driving these individual into the hand of the criminal cartels. and it's the border patrol agents that have to deal with the misery and suffering when we take these individual into custody. that's got to stop. it's disgusting and extremely frustrating for border patrol agents to deal with this and look at the political rhetoric. lou: the president's miss and about those who are thinking
4:44 am
about coming into the country illegally, to anyone thinking about paying the cartels, here is the president of the united states. president trump: to anyone conducting crossing of our border illegally. please hear these word. do not pay the smugglers, do not pay the coyotes. do not put yourself in danger. do not put your children in danger. if you make it here, you will not be allowed in. you will be promptly returned home. you will not be released into our country. lou: and as the president said, catch and release is at an end. the acting head of dhs making the announcement. you get the last word here tonight. >> i can personally tell you president trump has ended catch and release. because he has the political
4:45 am
will to do what his predecessors were unwilling to do. he struck deals with many different countries to insure we don't have to continue releasing people into our country. this is something anybody could have done. it was only him that had the political will to do it and it need to show up in the polls. up next, president trump promises to defend american interests no matter what. as he negotiates a trade deal with china. president trump: as i have made very clear, i will not accept a bad deal for the american people. lou: we take that up and much more right after the break, stay more right after the break, stay with us.
4:47 am
more right after the break, stay with us. beyond the routine checkups. beyond the not-so-routine cases. comcast business is helping doctors provide care in whole new ways. all working with a new generation of technologies powered by our gig-speed network. because beyond technology... there is human ingenuity. every day, comcast business is helping businesses go beyond the expected. to do the extraordinary. take your business beyond.
4:49 am
just maybe, someone else will too. sign up online today as an organ, eye, and tissue donor, at organdonor.gov, it saves lives. lou: president trump slammed china for its trade practices and its theft. the president vowing to protect u.s. interests during an historic speech before the united nations general assembly. president trump: the united states lost 60,000 factories after china entered the wto. this is happening to other
4:50 am
countries all over the globe. the world trade organization needs drastic change. the second largest economy in the world should not be able to declare itself a developing country in order to game system at others' expense. lou: let's start with the wto experience. it's not been a good one for the united states. the united states played as the president said, the chump for too long. he's changing all of that. you don't hear a lot of discussion about free trade. people are understanding there need to be balance in our international trade system and balancing in the international capital flows. >> president trump weren't to get to zero tariffs everywhere. he's right on the money when he
4:51 am
talks about china being able to declare itself a developing country, a developing economy even though it's the largest in the world. the result is raise tariffs. i think he's right about that. he spoke about the intellectual property theft. all of these abuses are for we'll. for real. i think china is a separate case from other countries where he sought to reset the trade debate. >> trade relationship amongst the united states, economics co-and canada and the new usmca is a larger proposition than the trade relationship with china. but china, those deficits are extraordinary and it has to be right. the theft of i.t. has to be right. they are changing the direction
4:52 am
i think of international trade globally. >> they do have a cost. if this tool works to get china to change its behavior, then i think we can say it's a triumph. but the point is to get them to embrace the rule of law, stop stealing intellectual property. but the point is not to say you have got to buy more of our stuff or a certain amount of our stuff. and to make sure [inaudible] often it's good for us depending on the situation to buy more or less from a country. we want that to be a free exchange. right now in china it's not. they are setting terms -- lou: i missed the part where you have got a better idea than the president. what we have had are 40-plus
4:53 am
consecutive years of trade deficits. $30 trillion in intellectual left. and i hear you complaining ever so subtly about tariffs. >> it's the theft that has to stop. lou: what do you want to do? >> well, i think if this approach works, we'll cheer. but it does have a cost. when you put tariffs in you see what it does to business investment. lou: i see what's happening to business investment. you can't late all on higher tariffs. what i don't understand is there is this -- i get a sense from some people, not you. that they are going to hang on to a libertarian view that you
4:54 am
can criticize the president without alternative. that they can criticize the necessity of correcting imbalances with tariffs, but can't in any way justify those deficits and can't come up with an answer other than -- >> i think he's been a great president for libertarians. in terms of reducing the size of government,. lou: government is out of control. this president is an historic president. there is no need to create fictions. this government is huge, it's getting larger and more expensive. let's say right now his appearance at the united nations, then impeachment as he's doing great things. speak to that. you have got 30 seconds. >> impeachment. i think it's possible the more people learn about this story the more they will say i am glad
4:55 am
someone is asking ukraine to look into that bind energy deal because it smells bad it's inexplicable how joe biden's son is being paid $50,000 a month for something he doesn't appear to be qualified for. lou: and getting somebody to fire a prosecutor. he's a go-to guy as james you are in the best sense of the expression. >> likewise. lou: we'll be right back. stay with us.
4:59 am
lou: speaker pelosi today indulging in theatrics as she announced ways a formal impeachment inquiry and not decide was the difference between that and what nadler has been doing judiciary for weeks. attorney harmeet dhillon cleared that up. >> the facts don't matter, the law doesn't matter. the will of the american people, 2/3 of whom don't support an impeachment inquiry don't matter. all that matters is naked politics and short-term gain. i think this will be destructive for the democrats, for citizens' trust in our democracy. the president has been suffering
5:00 am
from this witch hunt since before his inauguration. lou: we'll be in washington, d.c. tomorrow. vice president mike pence is our special guest. chef it's. cheryl: markets taking a hit as nancy pelosi announced an impeachment inquiry aimed at president trump where she called the president's actions unconstitutional. how the political drama could affect the president's trade plans and the market as we start a new day. futures are stabilizing this morning. lauren: wework's fast fall from grace, one of the most valuable startups getting its value slashed ahead of an ipo as the ceo is dropped from the company. cheryl: and elizabeth warren scoring another victory. is she the democrats' democratsr a win
