business in public safety. liz: sheriff, thank you for joining us. and thank you for having us in your homes. lou dobbs is next right here on the fox business network. have a good evening. [♪] lou: good evening, everybody. president trump is on his way to davos, switzerland where he will meet with european globalist elites and carry with him this message. i was right and you were wrong. the president will open the world economic forum with his speech tomorrow morning followed by meetings with several world leaders over the next two days, bilateral sessions. and the president leaving on the eve of the radical dimms sham impeachment trial. the president's legal brief urged the dismissal of charges

against the president. the president's attorneys writing the articles of impeachment before the senate are an affront to the constitution our democratic institutions. the articles themselves and the rigged process that brought them here are a brazenly political act by house democrats that must be rejected. all of this is a dangerous perversion of the constitution. that the senate should swiftly and roundly condemn. the greatest political scandal in american history doing nothing to stop president trump from keeping promises he made to those who elected him, and continue to celebrate the history his administration is making every single week. president trump: the two momentous trade deals we completed last week are just the beginning of an incredible

story. they said the deal with china would be impossible to make and getting rid of nafta was totally impossible. it was such a bad deal for us. good for the other countries. we are achieving what no administration has ever achieved before. and what do i get out of it? i get impeached. that's what i get out of it by the radical left sliewn particulars, i -- left lunatics. i get impeached. lou: the president expression his frustration with the impeachment farce. the partisan witch hunt epitomized by text messages between peter strzok and attorney lisa page like this one. written on august 8 of 2016. in which strzok says there is no way trump will win.

quote, we'll stop it. tonight we now know that former deputy attorney general rod rosenstein was the person responsible for releasing those texts to the public. in a new court filing rosenstein said he released them in december of 2017 to avoid selective leaks by federal lawmakers. he said he learned of the biased text messages in the summer of 2017. the vagueness of his memory conveniently blurring the timeline of whether he learned of that bias on the part of strzok and page or after signing off on the final carter page fisa warrant on june 29 of 2017. joining us tonight is tom fitton, the president of judicial watch. tom, great to have you with us. first your reaction to the rosenstein revelations.

i guess it would be the second set of revelations. >> the left is all excited about it because it shows a senior doj official released the text messages. you raised important issues about how and when did rosenstein snow about strzok and page's political bias against president trump. why wasn't that a reason to look at the fisa warrants and stop the mueller investigation until they could at least figure out whether it was illegally motivated because of strzok and phage. page and strzok are being protected by the fbi. they wouldn't be suing if they thought there would be reasonable expectation he would be prosecuted. they are still withhold something of these text messages from the american people. unbelievable. lou: this president has chosen

this attorney general who has chosen john durham as his special prosecutor on this. it's difficult to imagine a more frustrating process than what the president has gone through. first almost a year of fbi investigation over the collusion allegations. they really didn't rise to that level. but at least enough people were involved in crossfire hurricane to make it seem so. then came the special counsel investigation. then comes the radical dimms' conference seeking impeachment in the house of representatives. this is infuriating. it is maddening, and it seems there has been no reflex as one would have expected from the president's attorney general now that we know what is happening or some aggressive prosecution of those who obviously, clearly abused their power while in

office in the justice department and the top of the fbi. >> there has been no penalty for the worst corruption scandal in american history. the coup cabal over at the house will get rewarded with a two-week impeachment trial. it will ends up resulting in the president's vinds case. but it -- this whole process is designed to undermine his ability. it under mines his influence with -- it undermiebs his fin influence with foreign leaders. if i were the president i would say there should be no trial. it needs to be into the house abuse of process.

this is the first time president has been able to put out a defense against this malarkey. lou: indeed it is. as you point out, there shouldn't be a trial. the president's attorneys today arguing precisely that. that they simply move beyond this partisan farce. it is a national disgrace that we are having these proceedings because offed the party of hate -- because of the party of hate, the national left-wing media who are accomplices in all of this. i want to turn to adam schiff. you have season from the beginning it' it's adam schiff o should be on trial, not the president of the united states. is there a possibility at some point because he has lied throughout. >> there are witnesses to be had in this trial. i'm not sure one way or another where it's going to go.

schiff should be on the short list of witnesses. the president's brief makes the case he is a fact witness. and if he's a fact witness he can't be a prosecutor. i recommend that the president and his lawyers seek to disqualify him. remove him. he's conflicted. he can't be a prosecutor and witness at the same time. lou: i want to turn to senator mitch mcconnell, the majority leader, it seems to be acting rationally and appropriately in support of the president. the mcconnell effectively kill switch for the proceedings. will we see a rule that will allow the president's team to move to dismiss the impeachment process or what? >> they will be able to seek dismissal whether there is a rule or not. the suggestion is that would not

pass the senate. i think mcconnell is taking the right approach in terms of trying to restrict the trial to as brief a period of time as possible. but if the other side gets their witnesses it should be all bets off. they should look beyond hunter biden to the clinton gang. if you look at the house democrats' brief, they talk about everything over the last three years. if that's the case, let's bring in christopher steele and hillary clinton. let's bring in will horowitz to talk about his i.g. findings. lou: tom fitton, as always, good to have you here. extradition hearings for huawei's chief financial officer getting under way in vancouver, canada. ming has been under house arrest

since she was arrested in december of 2018. the united states alleging she violated u.s. sanctions by using a shell company in hong kong to sell huawei equipment to iran. those hearings scheduled to run throughout the week. the judge is to determine whether she is to be extradited to the united states. virginia's radical left state government ginning up fear and trying create hysteria about an annual rally for gun rights. the national left-wing media playing right along. >> feeding this narrative there could be violence monday. >> officials worry it could be a rerun of the charlottesville protests. >> many demonstrators are heavily armed. they look like soldiers.

look at those weapons, look at the gear. lou: we'll tell you how the sphere mongering played out. please stay with us. cologuard: colon cancer screening for people

virginia for its annual gun rights rally as the radical left in the states ginned up fear and hysteria. the governor obliged by declaring a state of emergency over the obviously unfounded but wildly voiced fears that the rally would breed violence. the peaceful rally gores were fenced off like cattle. they replied we will not comply when asked if they will surrender their second amendment rights. the president saying, i will never allow the second amendment to go unprotected. the impeachment farce is filing connect with voters. a new gallup follow show

americans oppose impeachment or his removal from office. the highest number of opposition since this impeachment began. 83% of american farmers and ranchers approve of the president's job performance. this coming just a week after he signed the historic phase one trade deal with china and passed the u.s.-canada-mexico trade agreement. joining us, the savant ed rollins, and michael goodwin. let me start with the "new york times" which today endorsed klobuchar and warren for 2020. >> i guess two is better than

one. lou, "new york times" has not endorsed a republican for president since dwight eisenhower. so the suspense was only a very small thing. i believe at the end they could not endorse joe biden because he's a white man. i think that weighed heavily against him with that editorial board. it's amazing when you consider they are making the presidential choices on the basis of race and gender. there is in other way to read that editorial. it's really among the women. we like two of them. so you get two votes. you don't get two votes. you get one vote. lou: we see the numbers continue in the latest polls. more than half of the country opposes the president's

impeachment, removal from office. but the democrats persist. what is going to be your judgment of how this progresses for the progressives. and what will be the political result after it's resolved. >> as democrats get closer to choosing the candidate they will run against the president, the president will get stronger. this president has an extraordinary record of doing all the things he set out to do. i think he will get stronger by the day. we'll finds the impeachment pro southeast to be the most absurd. you have to violate the law. there is no law anybody can say he violated. at the end of the day, it's a made-up charge. it's absurd. lou: americans just like each one of us across the country are saying this whole thing is absolutely disgraceful, it's disgusting, we are talking about

the effort to overthrow a president without a crime, without a reasonable charge of any kind, and yet the parade goes on. >> i think those polls are one reason why. it's a national poll. but it's very close. it's close enough for the democrats to take hope they can move those numbers by continuing to make this charge. they will get center ring to make that charge in. lou: what the hell is the charge? >> i read today most of the executive summary of the president's response. lou: god bless them. >> it was not easy either. but i think it's a powerful farm based on the constitution and on the facts that are alleged. and on the history of impeachment. sort of the way impeachment has

been done along with the facts of this case. the way they cheered when they signed it and everything that this was just a partisan exercise. i encourage people to read that summary. lou: or schumer's impeachment letter from 1999. let me quote from it. it has shaken me that we stand at the brink of removing a president not because after popular ground swell to remove him or the magnitude of the wrongs he committed. but conditions in late 20th century america has made it possible for the a small group of people who hate bill clinton make it possible for them to ex-moisture and almost succeed at undoing him.

there was and reference to cleverly trying to overthrow him. how can schumer stand up before this group? >> clinton committed a crime. he was disbarred. he lied under oath. lou: none of it rose to a high crime. >> whatever the definition of a high crime is. the forefathers, and i studied a lot of history. our forefathers didn't mean our president not having a meeting with another leader being an abuse of power. lou: how can schumer with a straight face say he wants to impeach this president when said the oaps with clinton. you study the history of the

congress, during the civil war there were fights in the congress and the whole nine yards it was very partisan in the country. close to the election, the president won. it ends up the same terrain. we have a great campaign team, and i'm confident we'll win and probably win bigger than we won last time. the vote will be close. but we'll win electorally. >> the president is in a position to win a second term, but it's a long way to go. and the democrats have shown there are no rules. you talked about the unemployment rate, the job creation, the trade deals. i think he's in a great position. i don't rule out anything given the way the democrats are so

desperate. lou: and lawless and so appalling that i think there is a good chance the american people will simply dismiss them out of disgust. >> hopefully mitch mcconnell will dismiss them and get on with the business of the country and the -- the republic. lou: a caravan. a caravan of 3,000 migrants making its way north. thousands more trying join up. who is behind the caravan. what is the mexican government doing about it? and where are the cartels in all of this. we take that up after the break from a man who knows the answers.

[♪] lou: new reports suggest the trump administration moving ahead with stopping birth tourism. it would deny short-term visas to those believed to be giving birth to gain automatic u.s. citizenship for their children. estimates of 33,000 babies born each year to foreign visitors throughout the country. mexican police trying to stop 3,000 mostly honduran migrants from make their north through mexico to the united states. hundreds of migrants crossing the river dividing guatemala and mexico. those who made it across were soon met with armed riot police. president obrador has offered thousands of jobs to migrants

who those seek asylum. but that offer has been largely ignored. joining us now is jaeson jones, retired captain from the texas department of safety and counter-terrorism division. let's tart with first the red let's start with first the repeat of a caravan formed in guatemala. many of those migrants crossing the river. an open question as to whether mexico will successfully stop them from making their way to our southern border. >> good to be with you again. i give the credit to the president of mexico and of course president trump for working to build an overhorizon approach that is layered to

mitigate mass migration. there has been a lot of work done last year to work with host nations all the way down to panama to put multiple layers twins and them. look at the work we are seeing down there. i have to give a lot of credit to the national guard of mexico. they are in this. they are trying to stop these folks. saturday i know over 650 people were apprehended. and today we see the numbers continue. but they are doing great work. 8 months ago i told you i would believe it when i see it. and we have seen it. what mexico is doing at the request our president. it's not just at the guatemalan and mexican border. there will be multiple players throughout mexico that won't let these people get through. there are checkpoints the national guard has built. the humanitarian visas normally

given out, they are denying that as well. this is a great strategy to prevent what we saw in 2019. lou: how do you explain the rejection of obrador's offer of 4,000 jobs to refugees coming up from guatemala which were rejected. >> it goes to show what the real intent is. the real intent is to come to the united states. we know that's what it is when we debelieve these folks offo -- when we debrief these folks at the southern border. when they say they are fleeing violence from gangs, that's not the real issue. lou: why is it so imperative that these thousands who have

been formed up here after months of no ca -- no caravans. ways the organizational and political purpose of this caravan in your best judgment. >> i have a great friend down there who has been wrieghtd national guard for the last week. i can report they are doing great work here. but this is the start of 2020. this is the first group to test the new foreign policy of the united states and what mexico is doing working in conjunction with us and other nations. what they are doing is probing the defenses. here swreeg we have strength and seeing where we have weakness, and what they will do in 2020 to get around this. we may look at this as a group of people far beyond our borders, this you a pivotal moment to see how our foreign

policy will hold up. why have presidents and administrations not done this before? it just makes sense. and we are seeing the results now. it's a good thing to have this happening at guatemala-mexico border and not the mexico-texas border. lou: as you point outgoing back some 8 months, this administration working with the lopez obrador, it's encouraging to see what looks to be -- it may still be fragile, but a real partnership, a real relationship created around this that seems to be one of mutual respect and common objective which is to stabilize both mexico and the united states. and that means securing both

borderers with mexico and guatemala as well as the united states and mexico. let me ask you about fentanyl and the cartels. the cartels have been it seems to me, and you give us your perspective, but they have been quite here. and the numbers when it comes to fentanyl and other drugs are actually increasing over the course of the past year. your thoughts on fentanyl particularly. it comes obviously in origin is china. >> it is, lou. and what's driving a lot of this, though, as good as the relationship has been between our country with our president and the president of mexico and the great work we are doing there down along the border with the national guard trying to stop the mass migration, along with trying to get more extra

dated and cartel members and high-ranking leadership into the u.s., the president of mexico's strategy for national security in his country is failing. he doesn't have one. the creation of the national guard force is what happened a dwriern his term he -- happen -- and a year into his term he does haven't a national strategy. the cartels will tell you when they are at war, they call it war, it costs a lot of money and they have to recoup those losses. that's why we are seeing a large amount of fentanyl moved into the country along with methamphetamine. lou: are we, the united states, our border patrol, our dea, are

we reacting vigorously enough against that situation? >> i don't believe we are. we have had a lot of violence on the other side of texas. and we need to see more officers in collaboration on that front. the major trip wires we are seeing that are concerning me is what you are talking about with methamphetamine and with these other drugs coming across right now. we need to focus on that. tom dillon, the administrator of dea needs to focus on that in 2020. we are seeing the numbers going through the roof. lou: we'll be right back with brad because our way works great for us! but not for your clients. that's why we're a fiduciary, obligated to put clients first. so, what do you provide? cookie cutter portfolios?

nope. we tailor portfolios to our client's needs. but you do sell investments that earn you high commissions, right? we don't have those. so, what's in it for you? our fees are structured so we do better when our clients do better. at fisher investments we're clearly different.

rating. any one of these candidates, when they have to run on their policies, the president is tbling a landslide -- is winning in a landslide. we have him 7-9 points ahead of where he was in -- 2016 on the direct ballot. lou: if the election were today, biden is in front. >> the president has not put his target on that candidate yet. who is it going to be? they get runaround and act like they are all great. lou: you wouldn't want to get rid of one too soon. >> the best thing for us is to let them beat up on each other and separate their delegates
