i'm jamie colby. thanks for watching "strange inheritance." and remember -- you can't take it with you. activity. [♪] lou: good evening, everybody. president trump's week of winning rolls on. the president began this week setting a record for an incumbent president in the iowa caucus. tuesday the president addressed the state of the union, focusing on his historic administration achievements, and the blue collar boom. wednesday the president acquitted in the u.s. senate of the charges brought by the radical dimms and their impeachment farce ending a year
4:01 am
of unsuccessful efforts about it radical dimms trying to overthrow his presidency after the special counsel investigation revealed nothing but the corruption of the investigators themselves, whether in the fbi, the justice department, the intelligence agencies of this country or others. yesterday president trump celebrating his vindication and exoneration, his acquittal. which is yes forever, thanking those who defended him against the attacks from the left and the deep state. and today more great news for the country. a blow-out jobs report. more people working than at any time under this president. job growth surpassing all predictions. president trump: this morning
4:02 am
the brand-new jobs numbers came in. we smashed expectations and created 225,000 new jobs last month. 225,000. they were thinking maybe 100, maybe 105. what do you think it's going to be? it's going to be 110. 225,000, for last month. that's only last month. liz: nobel winning paul krugman acknowledging today that the economy is indeed strong. krugman famously predicted a trump victory in 2016 would result in a disaster for the economy and the markets, acknowledging the reality before him, this is a booming economy,
4:03 am
an historic, soaring market. president trump also winning another major league battle. the d.c. court of appeals unanimously ruled democrats can't sue the president over the emoluments claims they concocted. president trump: we just won the big emoluments case. i think it was a unanimous decision. it was brought by nancy pelosi and her group. it was a total win. it was brought by 230 democrats on emoluments. it was another phoney case. and we won it 3-0. we won it unanimously. lou: despite the efforts of the radical dimms president trump's winning streak making this nation stronger by the day. president trump: you know what's
4:04 am
going to piewnify the country? look at our crowds and look at our support. what unifies it is the great success. our country days more successful than it has ever been, and that's unifying the country. lou: the president talking with president xi jinping about the south break of the coronavirus in china. president trump: china is working very hard. late last night i had a very good talk with president xi, we talked mostly about the coronavirus. they are working hard and i think they are doing a very professional job. they are in touch with the world organization and the cdc also. world health is working with them. cdc is working with them. lou: the president's statement comes as two more evacuation
4:05 am
flights from wuhan, chinalanded back in this country. 719 people have died of the virus, nearly all of them in china. 34,000 people of have been infected. but the husband and wife who were admitted to the hospital are home today and in good conditions. we are following people of the americans who has been kwan teened with the virus and whose health has been threatened by the coronavirus. and so far, and pray god it continues, all of those infected, good results as the two-week isolation and quarantine has ended. my next guest is a member of the
4:06 am
president's coronavirus task force. also the director of the national institute of allergy and infectious diseases. dr. anthony fauci. this is goods news. but it looks like we are having very good foretune with the cure rates so far. >> it's been a good story for what has happened in the united states. as we discussed the other night on the show, we have 12 people in the united states who are infected. 10 of them were people who visited from wuhan which is the epicenter of the outbreak in china, and two of the spouses of those individuals. and the public health approach as we said is to identify them, to isolate them, and to contact
4:07 am
tracing. and to hopefully be able to take care of them and in fact when they are well, to let them eventually go back into society. that's the ultimate plan. we have been quite successful? prevernlting the per is -- preventing the persistent transmission of one person to another. that's the driving component of the south break which we are seeing going on at a rapid pace in china. if we can keep a lid on things, and if we isolate them and do contact tracing, we'll be able to keep the lid on any outbreak in this country. lou: we are talking about 12 cases in this country. china is talking about 30,000 cases that we know of. the scale of the problem, while
4:08 am
public health is doing a marvelous job here. it appears from this distance to me to be daunting. your thoughts about how the chinese are doing and how great the threat. is it rising or is it status quo? who the chinese are in a very difficult situation. they have very persistent transmission from one person to another. that is exploding in an almost exponential fashion. every day there are a couple thousand additional cases as we just follow them. it isn't showing any indication that it's turning around. but they are doing some rather unprecedented dramatic things in cutting off and locking down large portions of the cities, for example, the city of wuhan which has 11 million people. they cut off traffic. lou: they isolated them.
4:09 am
>> that is unprecedented. whether that will be successful in preventing the spread to other parts of china as well as outside of chain a remains to be -- outside of china remains to be seen. they are working very hard to contain it. but it is a serious problem. lou: we are not seeing a lot of information about how europe's public health authorities are responding. they have got cases there as well. globally, it seems right now at least it's manageable or as you have said, americans remain as low risk. apparently so do the europeans and other continents. but in china there is obvious lid a consider stable -- obviously a considerable spread
4:10 am
of the disease. what do you make of that? >> the situation in china has gotten to the point that there are so many people infected and making he con daris -- making sy infections. when those cases travel from china to the united states or to other countries in europe, they will they were alert to the possibility that someone coming from wuhan or huh buy province i province to their country. they can contain them. lou: thanks to you and all of
4:11 am
our medical and public health folks in china. is there anything more we can do to the chinese. the rest of the industrial world do for the chinese to help them break, stop, this crisis? >> it's a good question, and we are. we are sending over aid with the material that they need. that's a big step towards helping them. we've offered to have some of our experts from the cdc and nih to be part of the p.h.o. umbrella -- the w.h.o. umbrella team to help them. lou: the chinese government said no to that since january 6, we understand. >> i'm not so sure they said no to it.
4:12 am
lou: you are the scientist and i am the guy who has to deal with the language. when they say no, it's empirical. they have not per mid our teams in. zooms. >> we are trying to be part of a w.h.o. team. shops be allowed to enter and help them when we are part of a w.h.o. team. lou: the problem is we haven't got the p.h.o. in as well. i think everyone has to understand we have been rebuffed in that. is that an incorrect statement i made? >> from the standpoint that we haven't gone the our people in there, whatever the reason for that. you are the one who knows that. i am just the medical person. but we have not gone the our people in there despite the fact we want to get in there and help them.
4:13 am
lou: it looks like a no at this point and maybe we can get to a yes. thank you for your help in this country as usual. thanks so much. lou: lieutenant colonel alexander vindman went home early today. we'll sell you why. the president -- i'll tell you right now. the president said that we could see what unfolded and the national security advisor removed. vindman and his twin brother from their spot on the national security council from the white house. we'll have more on where they went. more on the president's vindication celebration. he continues to celebrate a lot of success after 3 1/2 years of
4:14 am
were is tent efforts by the radical dimms and the deep state to destroy his presidency. and comment like this from the left-wing media should give us all pause. >> donald trump will be, must be impeached. >> mr. trump sees the walls closing in on him. that's why he's becoming increasingly desperate. >> is he trying to be i am percent state in vladimir putin pore hugo chavez? >> he needs to be hospitalized or he's going to kill all of us. lou: vicious? venal? ignorant? i don't know what words you have would apply to them. but appalling comessed to mind. we take that up and more. right after these quick
4:15 am
4:16 am
in 2remarkably sang her waylica, to the finals. but the real miracle is that she even made it to the stage. when she was four years old, she developed an infection in her lungs. we didn't know what happened or why she was suddenly so sick. thankfully her doctor knew, it was sepsis. sepsis is the body's overwhelming response
4:17 am

4:18 am
[ fast-paced drumming ] it's our most dangerous addiction. and to get the whole world clean? that takes a lot more than an alternative. so we took our worst vice, and turned it into the dna for a better system. materials made from recycled plastic woven and molded into all the things we consume. we created bionic and put the word out with godaddy. what will you change? make the world you want. lou: the radical dimms failures
4:19 am
piling up. impeachment failing in the senate. the president delivering a rousing state of the union. they are unable to find a winner in the iowa caucus catastrophe. radical dimms like debbie dingell sounding almost depressed about how they week went. >> everybody wants to get out of town today. this has been quite frankly in my professional career one of the worst weeks i can remember. lou: my guess is it was the worst week politically. if this isn't as bad as it gets for the radical dimms, i don't know what it will take. president trump is upbeat as you might expect, and he's having
4:20 am
fun with the dimms disaster in iowa. president trump: in iowa they couldn't even take a simple tabulation. yet they are telling you how to run the country and how to run healthcare. but i will tell you who won on the republican side, trump won. lou: campaigning with the president, dan bishop. you were with the president today, and his mood. how would you describe it? >> it's great to be with you, lou. the president came to my hometown, charlotte, north carolina. it was a striking contrast between the clip you just played of debbie dingell and the president. she thinks it's been one of the worst weeks, it's been a great
4:21 am
week, maybe the best of donald trump's presidency. the day add the aftermath of impeachment he comes to charlotte, and he showcases opportunity, opportunity zones. they had an opportunity summit in my hometown, and he was as upbeat as ever. really great. lou: the opportunity zones are part of the campaign promise he has been delivering on from the day he walked into the oval office. that's bringing prosperity to all americans, irrespective of economic circumstances or ethnicity or geography. he's moving this country, its capitalist free enterprise success to every american. that's got top astonish even you to see how completely and fully he's delivering on economic
4:22 am
promise. >> he is, lou. the state of the union address. i have always been a fan of ronald reagan. and he was a great communicator. he began bringing people into the gallery to symbolize the points he was making. after this state of the union i tweeted out, ronald reagan, move over. no one has ever done it the way donald trump did it. he brought to charlotte the same fella who had been addicted to drugs. he found a new opportunity for life. he was in charlotte -- he was ie and spoke to the crowd. it's astonishing. donald trump is unstoppable and it's good for america. lou: i said for some time he's the historic and greatest
4:23 am
president because of what he has been able to do for three years. turning despair that was left from state years of barack obama to rationalize foreign policy and u.s. foreign aid and to begin to rationalize our trade relationships with the world. meanwhile, wages are soaring for the first time in 20 years. jobs were 3.5% are now 6%. the radical dimms, i was pleased as punch to see this president on the offensive and taking the fight to the radical dimms and the deep state who made his life and threatened this republic for 3 1/years. how -- 3 1/2 years.
4:24 am
how excited are you to have a party leader you can follow into move for victory? >> donald trump -- i saw a headline that said donald trump is showing the gop how to fight. it's been some time since i have seen that headline. but that's the name of the game. he can do two things see you mull stain wasly. he goes -- shy mul -- simultane. it's unbelievable. lou: are you going to follow this president shoulder to shoulder all the way to november and win and take back the damn house? >> he unified the republican party. lou: i'm not talking about him. i am talking about you. >> he helped me get elected in september. lou: i know that, that's why i
4:25 am
wonder why you are hesitating. are you going to follow him into november and make sure we take back that house? >> absolutely. the first thing i'm going to do. the speaker of the house ripped his speech in half. go to my website. lou: i'm not going to go there. i'm going to talk to you. i want you to know i hope you spread the word with your fellas who have stayed unified, that's victory assured in november. if you do not wobble. congressman, i have to say good-bye and i have to say thank you. what's that website now? >> votedanbishop.com. lou: a key piece of evidence

- lou: joining us tonight. two of my favorite folks. diamond and silk. great to see you. welcome back to the broadcast. the president acquitted, vindicated, exonerated. he's on the offensive, hallelujah. what say you? >> amen. >> we are so happy. i love our president. despite all the things that have happened. you will the democrat conspiracy theories and shams.
4:31 am
the president is still working for the american people. he's still doing right by the american people. a man who gives his money away and works for the american people for free. he's vindicated, exonerate, and i want them to leave him alone i want everyone to make sure you go out and you vote red, remove every democrat. you can remove them by voting red for republicans. lou: i thought you were going to spell it redd. i was talking with dan bishop. i am talking about following the president, and he didn't want to talk straight about following the president and getting him to november and winning back the
4:32 am
house. can you guys get out there and work with these republican candidates who think they have a right to be dull? >> it's time for people to man up and stand up behind this president. it is what it is. our president is doing a hell of a job for all americans. especially black americans. if he helps you get into your position, you need to help this president get into his position. 2020, we got this. lou: president trump in the polls amongst black voters, the numbers are so impressive. they are historic. to see van jones over at cnn actually acknowledging this president is the guy who is really doing things for african-americans and their community. actually helping historically black colleges, actually creating opportunity. driving wages. the lowest you be employment
4:33 am
rate while others, the radical dimms, are all b.s. >> absolutely. we was at the state of the union. when president trump started talking about the low unemployment among black americans. you had the democrats sitting down on that. lou: they have been sitting for decades, doing nothing. >> almost half a century. the american people are tired of it. and we have a winner. these democrats are so used to losing, they don't know how to win. lou: diamond and silk, great to see you. come back soon. >> we'll. lou: no journalist is more keyed into the deep state's lock be standing investigation of this

4:36 am
oh man. that's terrible. if we see something new, changing or unusual, that could be skin cancer. is there skin cancer on me right now? i'm not a dermatologist, but do you know who is? who? your dermatologist! come closer. that tiny spot on your nose could be the end of you. you guys checking yourselves out in the mirror right now- that could be skin cancer. the good news is, if you catch it early enough, you can be a-ok. you gotta get checked, girl! do i? yes! everybody has to get checked! see the big see today. ♪music time and time again, you know when i'm doing street magic..i'll walk up to someone and i can just see they're against me right? they don't want to be amazed. they don't want this experience to happen. but then the magic happens.

4:38 am
security council. he will likely return to the department of defense. and mark esper publicly contradicting the president giving vindman a soft place to land. >> we welcome back all of our service members anywhere they serve. i would refer you to the army for any more detail on that. we protect all our service members from retribution or anything like that. lou: where in the hell did is per come up with a suggested threat of any kind of retaliation? during his confirmation hearing he said his views were more in line with jim mattis than the president. is per also contradicted the president on possible targets in iran and soleimani's threats against our embassies when he
4:39 am
was taken out. this guy is in need of serious, serious reality checks. and he should remember that there is a chain of command particularly since he is in the defense department and better start saluting from time to time rather than contradicting the commander-in-chief. rick gates told special counsel robert mueller almost two years ago that a key piece of the allegations of russian collusion found in the ukraine black linger were entirely fabricated. john solomon reported several officials sold mueller's team the ledger had suspicious origins and could not be corroborated. but nonetheless it was never used as evidence in paul manafort's trial or mueller's
4:40 am
final report, bit was useful to the prosecutors to begin their investigation. joining us now, john solomon. no one has come close to john in the extraordinary investigative reporting on spygate and all that attend it. the editor-in-chief of his new media outlet "just the news." >> thank you for that kind introduction. lou: let's start with that black ledger. i can recall vividly because i have been remind of it by my colleagues, june 20 last year talking about your suspicions about that black ledger and your reporting on it, and here we are with validation. it's stunning what that group of
4:41 am
investigators -- i am talking about the special counsel, the fbi did. >> that final report was a place where we could have resolved some of these issues. it would help us to judge the "new york times" which reported on that ledger and gave it such credence that president trump had to fire paul manafort. there were two pieces of evidence that drove the russia collusion story, the steele dossier and the black ledger. this is how extensive this dirty trick against donald trump was. lou: you use the word dirty trick. i call it an attempt to overthrow the president of the united states. the president likes to call it a witch hunt and a hoax. to me it doesn't express the depravity of the deep state and
4:42 am
the absolute evil of the radical dimms who tried to destroy this president. they tried to destroy his family as well as the republic. >> they couldn't find time in their report to tell us the ledger was a fabrication. but the ukrainian courts have tried to signal to the u.s. that they thought it was an attempt to harm donald trump during the 2016 election. people ask how can he ask for an investigation into 2016 interference? because of this evidence. it was a dirty trick used in ukraine to influence ouree recollections. lou: are you amused chagrined by the radical dimms who want
4:43 am
the president to move on from here. forget the attempt to destroy his life and presidency. the viciousness, as they attack his family as well as him. and just forget about christopher steele and the democratic campaign and the democratic national committee and what the deep state continued to do to subvert this president. see you had an interview with the president that was long before he was cleared by mueller. he said the reason i'm going to fight this so hard is so it never happens to another president again. if a government agency and political party can conspire, we had to stop it for future
4:44 am
generations of americans. it's good to see the house members and lindsey graham, so every person who participated in it is held accountable. lou: i couldn't agree with you more. thank you for being with us and making sure the good guys are preserved and the values of this great nation are preserved as well. up next as the dimms descends into chaos. and the president soars to new heights. we discuss the president's victorious week. radio host buck sexton joins us next. plastic.

4:48 am
4:49 am
elected. you look at the collapse of the impeachment farce. he was acquitted. you have a president who gave a state of the union address -- i am usually somebody who says state of the union address who cares. but this was memorable and i think democrats to their core should realize, this is the guy we are up against? and the jobs numbers. lou: nancy pelosi behind the president with her silly nonsense and ripping up her copy. that is the most pathetic display i have ever seen. she has melted down to the point where she has very little standing. >> one of the primary symptoms of trump derangement syndrome is
4:50 am
a lack of self-awareness. lou: i'm starting a movement tonight to call it what it really is, the radical dimm derangement syndrome. they are venal, choking on their own bile. and trying to destroy the greatest president of any. >> he says the democrats effectively lost it and he's begging for someone to come forward and represent a democratic party that's palatable. lou: who would want to be their standard-bearer of adam schiff,
4:51 am
jerrold nadler? the list is pretty sordid and i think sorry. >> for their own purposes, schiff, nadler, they view this as a win. they think this will put them in good stead. they will get fancy profiles written about them. i think they will impeach the president if they have a majority. get ready for that. so is a republican party, hallelujah. this president unified the party. congratulations monday. the hypocritical radical dimms say they are praying for president trump. we are, so why shouldn't they? we take it up with pastor robert

4:57 am
perpetrate on this nation. the greatest obstacle standing between the left and their vision of a godless america is president donald trump. i believe everybody who loves this country, everybody who loves their god needs to stand up and stand with this president and make sure this never happens again. lou: amen. and i hope every congressman, every senator running for reelection heard every word you said and will take it to heart and follow as they have the president month, this president. they are unified and it made a historic difference for this nation. >> the president should not have to try to stop this himself. we as the american people ought to demand that it happen. we know the attacks are going to come, the old game whack-a-mole. i sthif mitch mcconnell -- i

4:59 am
>> people say why do i get involved in poll sniks you are a pastor. why do you do this? this is not a war between democrats and republicans. or the left and the right. it's a battle between good and evil. it's time for god's people to stand up and taked a stand. you can't be a christian and vote for somebody who purports to believe in unrestricted abortion. ripping a baby out of the womb and destroying it in the 9th month of pregnancy of the mother. that's barbaric and evil. lou: this president is abouter working man and woman, the middle class. including life for the unborn. poom -- pastor, what a sermon yu have give be us tonight, i thank
