administration as richard grenell ripped into the obama administration for historic spying and sabotage of the incoming trump white house. watch richard grenell here with maria bartiromo. >> this is inappropriate. i think you can make the o
8:18 pm
media leaks there. do you think, do you agree with richard grenell, that the obama administration both spied on and tried to sabotage the trump white house? >> you're certainly seeing through that fisa warrants which ended up getting extended, that process was flawed. we saw a lot of abuse as ambassador grenell was just pointing out during the transition, not just with the unmasking but then the leaking of classified information about those calls to the "washington post." then as you just pointed out, over the course of the first several months of the trump administration you have these leaks coming out and what was a greatly unfortunate, was that you have these major media outlets basing their stories off
8:19 pm
anonymous stories, often times those anonymous sources proved to be inaccurate, however once you get two or three years down the road and, whether it is ig horowitz's report comes out or the good work of declassification from acting dni grenell or current dni in ratcliff and other aspects we're getting more facts, like, for example, that the nunes memo is accurate, not the schiff memo, you on fox business and fox will put out the rest of the story but unfor the senately these major outlets, whether it is other networks, of course newspapers, they're not taking the time to correct the record after spending years dumping down their audience on this stuff. elizabeth: you know, congressman, former dni grenell also said, quote there were red flags, red flags from the beginning of the trump russia investigation that numerous officials at multiple agencies raised the red flags about the
8:20 pm
problems the fbi, what they were doing in the trump russia probe but they were pushed aside. those red flags kept hidden, concealed from the public. watch this. >> look, what i will say, i really encourage people to read the footnotes. when you read these footnotes, you clearly see that the intelligence community, not just the fbi, but multiple agencies, knew that the charges were flimsy, or that the russians from the very beginning were wreaking havoc on the process by pushing propaganda into the steele dossier. people knew this, maria. there were red flags from the very beginning and those voices within the intelligence community were pushed aside or classified or both and most people never saw the warning signs and that's exactly the problem i think that we have to drop back and solve.
8:21 pm
elizabeth: okay. congressman, here's the thing, by late 2016 the fbi officials led by james comey knew that the trump russia probe was falling apart. comey, lisa page, peter strzok made statements to that effect. here's the what we're uncovering in the documents. that basically president obama wanted everything you have on russian influence put in the intelligence community assessment. so we're going to dig deeper into that later in the show. how much influence did president obama have on this here? >> we don't have all the answers but we narrowed it down. whether president obama and his closest associates at highest levels of the white house as well as the doj and the fbi, they knew there was no there there but continued to pursue it. ambassador grenell has done a great job getting information out. that is why he was such a threat and dni ratcliff is such a threat. they're afraid of them doing their job.

8:38 pm
saying that she would be an embarassment to them. that is why a lot of people in this country are turned off by the so-called news because it is not news anymore. it is a agenda driven and cnn has become a network that is very much anti-trump. you can see it when you watch it night after night. elizabeth: you know, the trump campaign released a statement condemning brian stelter es attack saying brian stelter's comments towards senior legal advisor jenna ellis were sexist and demeaning, implying that her children and grandchildren will be ashamed of her simply holding media outlets accountable. there is part of the story. why sue cnn because after poll. the trump campaign is suing the "new york post" new york times and "washington post." what is going on there. >> they are pushing back defense media that say they're balanced
8:39 pm
but are agenda driven. we've seen more and more with the administration. give example of the refusal to cover the tara reid story. allegations against joe biden, 17 interviews over five weeks where it was not raised. why would that happen if there wasn't an agenda? why are republicans treated differently than democrats? i think it is something the american public really feel right now is that there is one set of standards for republicans and a different set of standards for democrats. we're seeing that with the rallies now. we're about to have a rally. everybody is up in arms about the fact we're having a rally and saying it is dangerous yet, when these protests were happening, you had media outlets saying this is fantastic this, is wonderful. they never talked about ppe and social distancing. so it is a totally different way the media covers republicans versus democrats. elizabeth: you know the president has been criticized for attacks on the media for calling them the enemy of the people. we have also journalists like
8:40 pm

8:41 pm
agenda, activist mentality, you know what? , own it? guess with we're for democrats, be honest with the american people. when i come on your show. i'm for president trump. i'm head of republican party. you will hear my viewpoints, coming through that narrative that i'm a republican, what you have is, with specific outlets, journalists saying we're journalists we're fair and balanced and they absolutely skewing the way they cover stories based on their dislike of this president. and i think enough is enough. american people are smart you have? to determine and digest the news and term what it means for themselves without having the media have to tell them what they need to believe. if they don't believe what the media is telling them, that they're children and grandchildren will be embarrassed by them like they just said to jenna, which is absolutely despicable and out of line. elizabeth: give us an update, next case, can you tell us about the campaign fund raising? where does it stand now for the trump campaign, amount of money
8:42 pm
being raised? yeah we've been raising record money. of course the president hasn't been out there fund-raising which joe biden has had an advantage. he did 20 fund raisers last month alone. the president is focusing on governing. you're seeing benefit of that as we're seeing coronavirus cases go down and you're seeing the economy starting to come back. but he got on the road last week. we had two great fund-raisers with him. we'll see more and more of that. but we have a record day yesterday with 14 million raised online. elizabeth: ronna mcdaniel, thanks for joining us. come back soon. >> thank you. elizabeth: up next the heritage foundation's hans von spakovsky talking to us about the nation's former top spy chief raising questions what did president obama know and when did he know it about the historic spy and sabotaging about incoming trump administration.

8:48 pm
the trump russia probe? let's welcome to the show, heritage foundation senior legal fellow, hans von spakovsky. great to have you back on. government documents show, that fbi officials told james comey in summer of 2016 about the probe. fbi officials and text messages and documents show he was keeping tabs on it. you see that from texts from lisa page to peter strzok. your reaction? >> look, the top officials working under obama, the head of his fbi, the head of his national intelligence, his chief of staff were all engaging in unmasking of intelligence intercepts of campaign personnel and people in the transition. we supposed to believe that they did all of this without letting the president know about it? that he didn't participate in the decision making on this? that's very hard to believe. i certainly wouldn't believe that about president obama. so he was, i think, intimately involved in all of the
8:49 pm
wrongdoing that went on with this. elizabeth: you know, hans, it looks like president obama pressured the fbi here according to government documents. >> right. elizabeth: former fbi official andrew mccabe tells the dojig, why did the fbi push to have the discredited steele dossier that had disinformation in it, russian disinformation in it, why did the fbi push it to have that put in the 2017 intelligence community roundup on russian interference even though the fbi knew it was discredited, it was not substantiated? mccabe said, quote, obama wanted everything you have on russian influence. fbi officials told the senate they would have a major problem if the steele dossier had not been included. what is going on here? >> well, either mccabe is telling the truth, that that is the reason this totally discredited dossier was in there or you have to believe that the top officials in our intelligence agencies and the fbi were totally incompetent in
8:50 pm
their jobs and that was the reason they included this totally discredited dossier. i don't think they're all incompetent. it sounds like in fact there was pressure coming from the white house and frankly, look, we know now this was a partisan use of both our law enforcement capabilities and the very powerful capabilities of our intelligence agencies. something that has never happened, that i know of in the history of the united states being used against the opposition political party's presidential candidate. elizabeth: yeah. critics have accused president obama and his administration of abuses of power. he literally, his administration literally spied on the media. they did wiretaps and seized phone records of people like associated press reporters, "new york times" reporter james rosen, fox news reporter james rosen. irs commissioner visited
8:51 pm
white house under obama administration, the obama white house, nearly 160 times as irs was targeting conservative non-profits for extra scrutiny. is that an attempt to shut them down. >> right. elizabeth: in order to get obama reelected or get democrats reelected. that was an issue too. you know, there has been dozens of problems with the abuses of power under the obama administration. final word, hans? >> particularly the spying on reporters. they did more of that than any other prior administration that i know of and they seemed to be totally unashamed about it. elizabeth: hans von spakovsky, thanks for coming on. come back soon. >> thanks for having me. elizabeth: up kelsey bollar with the independent women's forum with us. on a whole why bother mastering something? because when you want to create an entirely new feeling, the difference between excellence and mastery is all the difference in the world.

♪. elizabeth: welcome back. ucla law school now tracking the number of prisoners released nationwide due to fears over covid-19 in the prison system. okay, here is what is going on. local leaders and jail officials and prison officials have released more than 80,000 prisoners nationwide. now on top of that there has
8:56 pm
been a major push in places like new york and california to do bail reform, letting those accused of crimes out earlier. now this, at least 250 convicted, accused criminals freed from new york's rikers island prison since march, rearrested, more than once for a grand total of 450 rearrests. welcome independent women's forum senior policy analyst kelsey bollar for her reaction. kelsey, your take on this story? >> first liberal politicians want to release a bunch of criminals into our cities and now they want to defund the police so there are no forms of law enforcement to respond to them. this is really a handful of stunning policies we've seen, these far left politicians respond to lately. i think it takes away from bipartisan efforts that we've seen the trump administration come out and support, advocate for criminal justice reform. also for police reform but
8:57 pm
unfortunately when these policies get taken so far out of hand, it reduces the open students to have productive conversations about how to enact sensible reforms while also still protecting our communities from violent criminals who still do exist. elizabeth: you know, kelsey the mass release of convicted and accused criminals of new york, it is happening as violent crime surges double digits in places like new york city, also in seattle. also major cities across the country. bill de blasio, the mayor is saying he will cut the nypd funding. now votes coming in billion dollars in reductions. kelsey, your take on this, now the trucking industry, eight out of 10, eight out of 10 truck drivers we ain't driving into cities where the police budgets have been defunded. your take on that? >> can anybody blame them? my heart goes out for all the families who are sending their
8:58 pm
loved ones who are police officers out into their local communities to try to prevent some of the violence we've seen break out from the peaceful protests. and of course this is all going to have a ripple effect much businesses and industries like truckers saying we're not going into these communities if there is no law enforcement to support us. so it is, i have my deepest sympathy for these truck drivers and other businesses who need to come to cities from out-of-state because it is going to have a huge ripple effect in our economy if we really do defund the police. elizabeth: you know, also when you have experts are saying when you have mayhem like this and chaos, you see problems popping up elsewhere. look at the surge of human smuggling at the southern border lately. 40% rise, significant rise in both illegal border crossers and drugs now crossing the border. this is as of may. according to homeland security,
8:59 pm
a 40% spike higher in human smuggling. your reaction? >> this is why border security is a public safety issue as well. we constantly get told you know, it is just a national security issue. covid-19 is a serious public health issue and it is yet another reason why we need to have tough border security including walls in places where it makes sense to prevent viruses including coronavirus from entering our country. elizabeth: kelsey bollar, thanks for joining us. really appreciate it. come back soon. >> thank you. elizabeth: i'm elizabeth macdonald, you've been watching "the evening edit" on fox business. thank you so much for watching. we hope you have a good evening and please join us tomorrow night. have a good one
