in radio legend elvis durand. i will see you then. ♪. lou: good evening everybody. president trump today in full throated expression of the people outraged of decades of military adventures of an assertion of military force that has led to un-ending global military posting of our young men and women in uniform and little understood and often utterly senseless in conflict over the past three decades. our failed previous presidents of both political parties grotesquely turning out what was supposed to be a peace dividend

for the united states into trillion dollar overdrafts on a national treasury and wounding tens of thousands of americans in faraway battles enunciated by leaders who fade in a popular memory but has diminished our great nation. president trump ordered the withdrawal of the last thousand of our troops from northern syria. in the neo- establishment congressional and senatorial rinos and the radical dems. here is the president fulfilling his mouth to get america out of those conflicts and to bring our troops home. >> we want to bring them back home. these are the endless wars, we are policing in certain areas where these are great fighters. lou: while the president leads this nation, the party of eight who leaders have been caught in lies and lies and fraudulent

claims against mr. trump have now found a second whistleblower. apparently also an individual who works in the nation's intelligence community and also a democrat and who is represented by the same radical durham activist attorney as the first failed whistleblower. the radical durham drawn upon american people is appalling. but entirely to be expected of the left led by pelosi. president trump is disgusted with the dems in the ongoing effort with his ministration and agenda. >> the conversation i had with ukrainian president was a very good -- very cordial and very

good conversation. to think they made the opponents the opposition, the democrats, radical left, deep state whatever you want to call them, came out with the whistleblower report before they saw the conversation. had they waited one day, nancy pelosi would not have made a fool out of herself. >> the fraud is massive, it is ongoing. he called back adam schiff for his content with the first whistleblower and lying about it. apparently the radical dems needed this new second so-called whistleblower badly in the first seems to like some integrity. not telling the intelligence community inspector general for example about the partisan cia meetings with the house intelligence committee. for more, we turn to chief intelligence correspondent catherine harris. reporter: behind closed doors close is close to the matter to fox news intelligence committee watchdog told lawmakers about the was a blur contact with dimmedemocratic adam schiff.

he did not know how many times a whistleblower declined to his committee between july 25 phone call with ukrainian leader in august 12 with a complete was filed. republican said he had a conflict only his team can fill in the gaps. >> the president attempting to remove from office on the basis of this impeachment deserves to know what type of contact there was. >> on twitter the whistleblower legal team says a second one came forward with direct knowledge with conduct by the president, the whistleblower does possess firsthand knowledge of firsthand info. there is no legal requirement for any whistleblower to have such knowledge and not only a reasonable leak. a new letter from national security into pomona officials, critics of the president said the whistleblower followed the world and all american should be united that all branches of our government and all outlets of

our media protect the whistleblower in his or her identity. the republican chairman of the senate judiciary committee lay down a marker. >> the whistleblower wanted to come forward under oath, testify to the public and judge the credibility. >> former special envoy to ukraine who was interviewed last week was in the mccain institute saying it has become ended distraction from the continued growth of the institute. fox news can confirm on july 26, 1 day after the president phone call with ukrainian leader, the first whistleblower rights at two page singlespaced memo to themselves in dramatic language, they says the white house official described as crazy, frightening and completely lacking in substance to national security. this tone is worth contrasting with the public transcript of the call. lou: thank you very much.

still unexplained about a two week gap between the phone call in the whistleblower proceeding to move ahead and talk to the house intelligence staff. troubling, all the deficits in the way in which seemingly this catches up after public outcry. president trump declaring time to let countries and regions in conflict take care of things themselves. president trump within the past hour receiving a briefing from senior military leaders spending the day defending his decision to withdraw troops from northern syria. chief white house correspondent john roberts with the story. >> president trump today said he reached out to america's allies for help in syria but when no one answered the call he decided to unilaterally call troops out. presiding over a trade bill today the president said he has taken steps to ensure that turkey does not initiate a

bloodbath. [applause] >> they decided a trade agreement that quickly turned to the president's decision to bring troops home from syria. once we captured isis, i don't want to stay there for the next 40 years. >> they defended the move with northeastern syria over to turkey saying he warned turkish president not to go after the kurds and protect isis prisoners and their families. >> i told turkey if they do anything outside of what we would think is humane to use the word a second time, we talk about hong kong in this, they could suffer the wrath of an extremely decimated economy. i have done it once, i did it with pastor bronstein. he insists he has support for the withdrawal. several of the president's republican colleagues have criticized the move. last december defense secretary resigned over a disagreement about pulling troops out. white house officials say in no

way has president trump given turkey a green light to invade northern syria. but many of the president's republican ally said by doing what he's doing he is showing that america is turning its back on the closest allies. lou: order level trade talks between the united states and china resume in washington today. how the economic advisor larry kudlow telling fox news, open to a number of ideas on short-term and long-term, president trump however, telling reporters he wants much more than that. >> my inclination is to get a green gear. we have come this far, we are doing well, we just have to see what happens. i much prefer a big deal. can something happen, maybe. but i think it's probably unlikely. >> unlikely and certainly not anything that the president has

discussed being remotely possible and higher level trade talks are set to resume thursday and a roadblock with steven mnuchin and robert lighthizer will be from the time they come to make changes in order to protect american intellectual property. in other words they want to steal as much as they can when they want from the united states. joining tonight former reagan white house political analyst. what is kudlow doing? >> he has been a friend of ours in tv commentator for long-ter, cannot go by the cameras without having something to say. this president speaks for himself. whatever the president's words are or policies that's what the policy is. >> that would be one part, but larry is talking in terms of antithetical to the president and absolutely ignoring the fact

that this president needs to demonstrate with china and the world in the world in desperate need of trade. >> larry never believed all the things the president talked about before he went in. and he has the best policy right now to keep your mouth shut and let the president make his own announcements in time in the treasury secretary in the trade representative let them make the deal and if the person wants to he will sign off on it. >> i know he does not mean to but it is his words that are making the president appear weak in accepting a short-term, long-term deal, it does not matter to us et cetera. and after hard work of robert lighthizer, the u.s. trade representative, steven mnuchin, the representative. >> another thing, were in a real battle, it's been a long drawn out battle but the president in

the and will get what he needs for this country and he does not need snipe from the side. >> within his own administrati administration. >> i have to tell you, the party that this president is working with, what a hand to draw too, these rinos in establishment -- like mitt romney where they chirp and candidates from the sidelines as if their observers with great gravitas and knowledge. it is laughable except for the fact that it seriously undermined this president. >> the problem with romney, the end of the day he begged the president to endorse him and he wanted to be secretary of state and he did not get it. now he thinks he's going to be the leader of the opposition in the republican party. and i promise you the voters of utah will support this president

100%. and romney better get to know that very quickly. lou: i think romney -- he is pathetic at this point. and if the president has not paid him neither would be. let's turn the rinos against the president and the republican party. on the issue of bringing our troops home from syria. let's put this in context. syria is a nation of 18 million people. we have 1000 troops are in northern syria. the president is talking about bringing 1000 troops home and leaving 18 million people to fend for themselves, what in the world are we thinking about in this country and we are going to put a list of rinos, senators fighting the president on this withdrawal. these people are just amazingly the problem.

and they include the majority leader mitch mcconnell, lindsey graham as you heard earlier, mitt romney, marco rubio and then senator ted cruz, pat toomey, liz cheney in the house. former governor mike huckabee for crying out loud. this is nonsense. >> each one of those people owee reasons, the american people in this president an apology. if they justine the site. >> the only other issue i'd make, you want to friends, he is correct in his position. >> with 1000 troops? >> i'm not talking about 1000 troops. >> we have 1000 troops -.

lou: they are in grave danger and in harm's way for no national security purpose whatsoever. >> he needs to get them out of there but not to be in a battle with his own side at this point in time. >> to hell with the fractious battle. it's enough putting it under the president. the president is right and history will prove him right, he campaigned on this -- >> i don't disagree with that but the next three or four months we have a tremendous a battle to go on with the democrats. >> to hell with politics. -- >> and arms way. >> to help with politics. >> if he is going to be attacked with the democrats he needs of republicans to defend in the senate. >> if they have not got the integrity -- >> people with that integrity and spying an interest in the nation, his success international success as far as

i'm concerned -- >> the reality is, the next ten or 15 -- >> basically looking for anything not to support this president. >> any excuse to play games. they are little people with little to no idea and they need to stand -- you get the last word. >> we need to hold the senate because the democrats will impeach him -- >> we don't need to hold the senate to one single american life. thank you very much. i appreciate it. president trump calling out for radical left continue refusal to investigate the corruption of joe biden and his son hunter. there is no doubt corruption that needs to be investigated. we take it up with the government accountability institute, best-selling author,

great american. the democrats are too scared to vote on impeachment of this president and constitutional law attorney and judicial watch join us here tonight

>> i think adam schiff should be

investigated for what he did. he took to the great chamber of congress and made a speech and his speech was a fraud. everything he said was a fraud. he went out as the word rotor, he defrauded the american people, he defrauded congress. lou: president calling for adam schiff's investigation for his role in the radical left impeachment inquiry, so called. the president gaming strong support in his fight against radical dems from mitch mcconnell, the senate majority leader declared that impeachment will not succeed under his watch. >> they finally convinced her to impeach the president, all of you know your constitution,

where that impeachment stops is when the senate majority with me as a majority leader. >> joining us tonight peter, new york times the selling author, the president of the accountability institute and investigative series podcast and title the drill down. good to have you with us. let's start with the polls. we are hearing a lot from the radical dems in the left-wing but there failing to mention how much independence or swing into this president and failing to note how much that the american public wants an investigation and ukraine. and by 57%, the american public in the latest investors business daily, wants volumes of her investigated. your thoughts?

>> that is exactly right. there is also a usa today poll that shows 2 - 1 margin and that the biden financial deal outta be investigated and look, it makes sense, the american people understand, they are not naïve, there's a lot of politicians have cells enriched to the political power. when they learn that joe biden as vice president, china and ukraine and his son just happened to get lucrative deals in the same two countries when he had no background, they get the picture pretty quickly that something is going on and they recognize in needs to be looked at. that's why this is something that needs to be looked at by the department of justice and the senate needs to look at holding hearings. you and i both know -- if you allow politicians to do this, to

send their kids off to foreign countries, to cash in and big ways, everybody is going to do, do we want a country where politicians are doing that, i don't think we do. this has to be dealt with now or it'll be more complicated than it is now. >> does it is done you just a bit, and you like me have seen a thing or two as a commercial. the idea that the american public in the minds of mide in the radical dems in the house of representatives. that they would not want something like biden and affair to be investigated. they would rather close their eyes, see no evil, hear no evil and they certainly speak evil but they do not want to hear anything about what biden and his son were involved in whether ukraine or china. >> other than people on the

diehard left, i think everybody else gets it. people that are swing voters who move back and forth, they know full well that if we were talking about donald trump and don jr. flight on air force one and don jr. making a major deal with the chinese government in area he had no expertise, we know they would jump up and down. i would be jumping up and down. but that's not what happened at all. what happened that's with the biden's did and for some reason the democrats are always making excuses to investigate. they told us in 2017 you cannot investigate hillary because she's no longer running for office, now were being told you cannot investigate no biden because his running for office, so when are you allowed to investigate anybody. most people see through that that they are operating under.

>> this is quite a ruse that they have going now. and their inexhaustible and lust for investigation so long that they can impede introverts, the president and his agenda. two and half years with a special counsel and they don't even blush when they say we don't want an investigation of the bidens, they wanted for every republican they can think of. but not for those on the face of it that an. to be in serious, and only conflict of interest but in serious amounts of what appears to be extortion. >> let's look at two cases, look at the russian dossier, the steel dossier, it was based on hearsay, and this guy made all this stuff up, the entire machinery of government was moved towards an investigation. in case of the bidens, there's no dispute, we have money and

the deals in the fact that joe biden was pulling the lovers and there seems to be evidence that he was getting favorable treatment to those financing his son, why is it you can go off on a wild juice cas goose chase buu have a money trail and deals and you have an actual pattern of behavior that is not in dispute, there's nothing to see. people say that and it's going to come to backfire on the democrats to one side in notion that justice is not blind but justice is selective and we will only investigate other people and not our own. >> it is breathtaking to watch adam schiff lie and create a kangaroo court the house of representatives will need to policy, denying republicans representation, subpoena power in anything approaching what is been traditional, conventional

in the house for vote before proceeding to an appeal for inquiry. it is reason and i think they have demonstrated all of america what they are in who they are.

president >> you cannot impeach a president for doing a great job. you cannot impeach a president for having the mos lowest unemployment numbers and 51 years. you cannot impeach a president for tax cuts and regulation cuts in creating, the about or was it the strongest economy in the world. that is the president laying out a fraction of his a compliment as a radical left impeachment inquiry goes on. joining us tonight the trump 2020 advisory.

peddled as a talking point from the radical dimms that there is no constitutional requirement that the president be given the due process and floor vote on impeachment. it's a bipartisan part of the house rather than the democratic caucus. >> that's why. it's a democratic move to hate president trump and they don't want to call a floor vote and give the process to actually call a vote. nancy pelosi is really in the middle between and extreme left agenda of her party and also wanting to make sure she

protects her party. she doesn't want to put the democrats on record for this impeachment farce. there is nothing legally or constitutionally substantive to this impeachment inquiry. she is refusing to call the vote for that reason. lou: the president refusing to honor the subpoenas and insistence on the part of the radical dimms and the caucus. it's not the -- >> i think he's well within his rights to say we will comply but you have to follow process. of course, the president deserves due process in the context of impeachment. just because article 2 section 4 doesn't particularly lay out a particular process, fundamental fairness is part and parcel to

every system of our government. you never have a context of any preceding whether the judicial branch or the united states. also presumption of innocence. of course the democrats need to follow process and precedence unless they want to go on record and try to change that process by saying on the house floor they are not going to hold a vote and actually get a majority on that measure. lou: the entire process is politically correct. watch what is happening in new york where a federal judge has stopped the enforcement by a judge in new york that would have happened up 8 years of the president's tax returns. a purely partisan political and

initiative as well as a rule big that judge in new york. >> absolutely. this was a clinton appointed judge that has political bias toward president trump. this is the democrats trying to attack president trump from all sides. trying to change the primary results by require presidential tax returns before you can be a canadian. we are seeing that in d before you can be a candidate. this is something that another absolutely this president's attorneys were correct. he does have an exemption from the president of the united states from malicious prosecution. why? that would allow one particular district attorney out of all these offices in the united states to bring a prosecution against the president and try to take him down president trump should win on the merits. i'm glad to see the circuit

court made this stay. lou: next up with us. tom fitton of judicial watch..

president trump: the deep state

came out with a whistleblower report before they he saw the conversation. if they waited a day nancy pelosi wouldn't have made a fool out of herself. she said this is not what the whistleblower said. lou: the president slamming the radical dimms. 90 international security officials praising the trump whistleblower urging his or her identity be respected. the usual suspects, brennan, clapper, michael hayden. that's 90 people demanding that the whistleblower be kept secretive who should never serve in national security again. joining us, tom fitton. what do you think of those 90 security officials signing that

letter? >> i'm surprised it wasn't more. the deep state is run bipartisan liberal democrats. the government agencies are staffed by people who mostly oppose the president. especially a president like president trump who is a threat to the traditional foreign policy intelligence community scams perpetrated by the american people for the last 20 years. you have got an intelligence community that abuse their power. lou: i am serious. i think they should never be permitted to hold any kind of national security votes if they put the identity of the whistleblower above the public's right. the citizens' right to determine the credibility of such a witness against him. this is a third party hearsay with itness. so i'm not sure why we would care.

but your thoughts. >> this is the alice and wonderland approach. the trump administration and trump witnesses, that they would be questioned on allegations and attacks by anonymous people without a chance to understand where the folks are coming from, what they actually knew. what their agenda is, is contrary to the rule of law on the constitution. just because impeachment is in the constitution doesn't give politicians in the house the right to abuse the rule of law, abuse the constitution, to use anonymous complaints to put people at risk of jail .they lie without ability to figure out what am i being asked about? and these are not whistleblowers, lou. i work with whistleblowers, i know whistleblowers. they are friends of mine. these are not whistleblowers.

this is a palace coup targeting the president. lou: adam schiff is a documented and long-term liar running the impeachment inquiry. nancy pelosi lying about what. there is no credibility on the part of the leadership of the radical dimms. why is this thing moving forward? as usual, the accusers are the ones who committed far greater offenses against the american people here. >> the justice department need to figure out if any classified information what is appropriately handled here. especially sharing it with schiff. he should present legally all these subpoenas that are abusive. he should double down on this issue with joe biden. call back ukrainians and make sure they are doing an

investigation. lou: he can't tell them what to do, he can ask them. >> and ask for an update. lou: the attorney general also making clear to a number of our allies that he needs cooperation to carry out his investigation. rumor hopeful today than you were two weeks ago that barr is getting advancing his investigation? >> it's clear to me he's doing some type of review. it's my son concern it's not a criminal investigation. if you are aware of it, let me know about it. the irony is they are concerned about him doing a review. he let comey out and i'm not seeing any indication anyone else will be prosecuted. but the democrats don't care. they are just concerned about

being called out by barr. lou: they have already shown who they are and what they are doing. they have taken themselves out of consideration in this process as far as i'm concerned. tom fitton, thanks. the nba bowing to economic pressure communist china. the houston rockets general manager apologized after he posted an image of pro hong kong democracy demonstrators. in response to his tweet, multiple chinese businesses immediately suspended relationships with the houston team. in order to calm things down, the nba executive suite released this statement saying the nba recognizes the tweet offended many. the hell you say. but added the league recognizes

people sharing their views are important to them. people are slamming the nba for bowing to china. ted cruz said human rights shouldn't be for sale. it's clear the nba has sold and sold dearly. we continue our coverage of the party of hate's efforts to take down this president. everyone uses their phone differently.

county rsh president trump calling the dem's impeachment inquiry a scam. the president really raising hell today. he put the military industrial complex on notice that he couldn't sacrifice a bunch of lives in syria for knee -- neo-con nonsense. >> up no military expert. but i know this. this is not the first type we

have seen members of the senate get in front of the president because they don't have all the information he has. when this president ran for office and now that he's in office has the most of important job he can have. if we don't have a reason that we need to be in a country, i know he has always said, any man or woman who wears that patch of the american flag on their uniform home safe with their family. >> why did it take three years? he's been trying and he's rub up against the military industrial complex and the pentagon. i know some of the people who have been lobbying like hell on the issue of keeping troops there. we heard a number of them step forward including lindsey graham speaking of people who are military experts deciding that -- i can't figure out who he is. is he friend or go to this

president? >> i do know this. lou: that's that the way an answer begins. >> when the president asks his friend and advisors, how do we get our troops home ann and bring those men and women home. they all said sir, you can't do it. there is no way to do it. he said that's not an acceptable answer. when he had to get rid of the first secretary of defense because he wouldn't follow through and what the president's initiatives were. lou: mattis thought he was the president, for crying out loud. >> so many others in that military industrial complex think they are the president. lou: more than a few in the civilian white house believe they are president. >> yes. i am with you and you know that. the difference is this. one man got elected to be president of the united states with 63 million people

supporting him, pledging to bring our troops how many. they should be on u.s. soil unless there is a critical reason each one has to be forward deployed. lou: the question becomes how come we still have all the troops in nato and europe and south korea. we have troops i believe it's over 100 countries around the world. this is madness. >> we can no longer be the police force of the world. we have our own problems right here. every single day people coming across our southern border. the crimes they are committing can be prevented. let's take care of something called america first. i know that sound terrible to the globalists out there. i don't care. lou: he is the president. he has the power to shut down the nonsense. his own white house and his own

advisors. it's time for this president, and i salute hip, to connect back with the people who put him in this white house. not wall street and not the swamp. and not corporate america and not tim cook. but, you know, mr. and mrs. america who live on streets all over this country in middle class neighborhood and neighborhood that aspire to be middle class. that's who his people are. so where are we going to see it? i see more corporate ceos parading out of that white house than i ever thought possible under this president. >> to cut the size of that bloated government bureaucracy that had 400 people working tonight, many of which hate this president are leakers.

the national security council. this president said last week he's going to cut the size of the national security council because of the big below thed government. that's what he pledged to do and that's what he is doing. lou: how many people do we have in government? >> way too many, lou. >> it's about 3 mill and 400 would be a start as you say. we are coming right back. stay with us.

lou: president trump blasted adam schiff and nancy pelosi for defrauding the american people. president trump it's a big scam. he defrauded congress and he defrauded himself and his family. lou: the national debt stands at 22.3 trillion dollars. gordon chang and jason chaffetz among our guests tomorrow. follow me on twitter, instagram
