"the evening edit" starts right now. ♪ thank you for joining us. you are watching the foxbusiness

network aired let's head straight to hell or avon. she has the latest from washington, d.c. >> through the end of the year through 2021. the president signing the executive order today that would aim j to protect jobs as a u.s. economy struggles to reboot and light of the coronavirus pandemic. the senior official tells foxbusiness that this will save over half a million jobs between now and the end of the year. the president teased the executive order in an exclusive interview with fox news over the weekend saying there will be very few exceptions to the new visa restrictions. >> very little, in some cases you have to have exclusions, you need them for big businesses where they have certain people that have been coming in for a long time, but very little exclusion and they are pretty tight, we may go very tight for tia period of time. >> the executive order presses pause on new visas but does not retroactively undo b cells that are already in effect.

here are the ones that will be affected under the order. many workers in the technology industry and hb four industries that are given to their spouses. those that are given to seasonal workers. there will be an exception to those working in the food industry. visas for scholars, professors and executives at large corporations will all be put on hold as part of this order. this action is temporary. ga sweeping overhaul of the visa process. they want to make immigration more merit-based as opposed to a bottery system. the senior administration official tells us that in the future the visas would go to the top salary earners and there would be rave requirements built into visas after two years of them being into effect. we are already here and that technology companies push back on this order. amazon saying in a statement

that they call this a short sighted action and preventing high skilled workers from helping the u.s. economy to rebound actually puts america at a disadvantage whenn it comes to global competitiveness. liz. liz: thank you so much. the president heading to arizona and wisconsin for more rallies this week. days after the news about 6200 people attended the president come back rally in tulsa. the campaign said 12,000 got him blaming covid fears and protesters. that campaign now rejecting the story that teenagers sabotage the rally with reserving tickets online and then not showing up. that is blamed on things like tick-tock and kapok. viral trends on social media. let's welcome campaign manager cory lewandowski. cory, take this on. you are on a new hampshire radio

show. that was a mistake, this rally. let's deal with it first, your reaction. >> my reaction is this. the largest audience that fox news has ever had between the hours of eight and 10:00 p.m. on a week and night. many people saw the president. we cannot over examine every single individual that may or may not have rsvped for the rally. the fact is the president had the opportunity to get his message out directly to the american people with over 8.8 million people watching. that is what matters. >> millions of people watched it on the internet and on television. i want to get to the defining moment of what is happening right now in the campaign. our show, "the evening edit," and we will take credit for this, p the president read president trump will likely win.

we saw activity separate from the pollsss happening across the country and we picked it up and reported it on our show. now we are seeing this defining moment happening right now. the polls are just starting to pick it up. americans are fed up. they are fed up with mobs taking over the cities when these leaders, cory, took an oath to preserve the peace and protect taxpayers who pay their paychecks. chicago, seattle, minneapolis, new york,k, reporting blood he weekends. because 2 d funded this band police departments. in new york city, a man was executed in broad daylight washing his car in brooklyn. twenty-eight shooting since friday. doubled the rate since last year. this is disturbing. this is a defining moment for both campaigns. cory, take it on. >> it absolutely iss a defining moment. you did not even mention the 3-year-old baby that was shot

and killed in chicago. there will be no outcry from the liberal left over this. the truth is, the police officers have a very difficult olb. there is this notion that we will defund the police where communities right now, our largest cities are seeing an uptick in the crime rate. not just any crime rate, but violent crime m rate. more shootings taking place. we don't need less police officers, we need more police officers. liz: senator tom cotton is saying -- okay. i am having technical difficulties. let meot take this, cory. the federal government prosecuting more than 70 people arrested during the riots for things like vandalism, looting through facebook live, arson and in one p case murder. let's watch president trump talk about this. this will be a major campaign theme for 2020. democrats are not doing enough to stop this.

listen. >> if the democrats gain power, then the rioters will be in charge and no one will be safe and no one will have control. the murder rate in baltimore and detroit is higher than el salvador, guatemala or even afghanistan. how are they doing, thee democrats running those cities? the whole country will be like that. in 2018 alone our police arrested nearly 12,000 people for murder and manslaughter. 25,000 people for rape and nearly 1.5 million for assault, violent assault. the democrats push against our police will drive up crime and drive up costs at levels you would never believe. liz: okay, cory. on the one hand, you have joe biden saying president trump's

divisive with his rhetoric, joe biden not out on the campaign trail has yet to pick a vice president. is he pulling back from a val deming's eyes presidential choice, too tough on crime, and then you had daniel patrick monahan, do not politicize, do not glorify mob riots and looting. do not do it. the american people do not want it. that led to the riots of ronald reagan. what is your reaction? >> the american people want law and order. when they call 911, first responders will, and they will come every time. when polices officers are in yor communities, they are safer. that is what this president stands four. law and order. it will never be accepted in a tolerant society. we are a tolerant nation, but we are a nation of laws.

>> cory lewandowski, thank you for joining us. >> coming up. we will stay in the 2020 race. yes, it will be a bruising campaign. the trump campaign is not holding back. clearly diminished, lacking mental fortitude toin take on te office of the presidency ansoff on crime. joe biden has not held a news conference in 80er days. joe biden has been dialing back on his tough on crime 1994 bell that he offered. this is a hot button topic for the 2020 race. mike pence chief of staff joined us next. ♪ ♪ [ engines revving ] ♪

seeing. "i want r to be really clear, trump could absolutely win reelection. he has his work cut out for him."om we welcome back to the show mark short. chief of the staff to michael pence. great to see you again. your take on what nate silver is saying. >> well, liz, because of some restrictions, i cannot really comment on the political strategy. if you look at where the president will be going tomorrow, arizona and to highlight the fact that this administration has now completed 200 miles of new wall, the midwest later this week to talk about expansion of our military and new resources provided there the vice president will be in milwaukee s tomorrow to talk abt the benefit of school choice and how we want to make sure every child gets the same opportunities. the vice president will be in ohio later this week in florida

next week. certainly, we will have a very vigorous campaign. you have seen the activity level the vice president and the president have right now. we look at the other side and there are legitimate questions. vice president biden yet to face the mediar in over 80 days. seems trapped inside his basement at the moment. >> why is joe biden leading in the average pole?id ay by nine points. nate silver is saying, you know, if we believe the polls, hillary clinton would have one. what is your take on the lead of biden being up right now? >> roughly labor day to election day last cycle 150 public polls andon only seven had donald trup winning the presidency. i think in many cases, many pollsters have failed to take into consideration the trump voters that came in the very first time. i think that we are just focused

on continuing to divulge the american people int the polls will take care of themselves. over 7 million new jobs before coronavirus hit our shores. we begin the great american comeback. two and a half million jobs created last month. record retail number 17% increase. if we keep delivering for the american people, the rest will take care of itself. liz: the american people are scared about covid-19 and then they are doubly scared of the failure of local leadership and not keeping them safe from violent crimeng now overtaking american cities those cities led by democratic leaders. watch the president go after joe biden on jobs lost to trade on education and race. >> he has been there for 43 years. forty-seven years? he never did anything about it.o biden has deported every

globalist attack on the american worker. let's make every country in the world rich but ourselves. including nafta. the disaster of nafta. korea, i renegotiated the deal. i took a horrible deal. that was a hillary clinton special. that was a hillary clinton special. she said we have to make this deal with south korea. 250,000 jobs. she was right. for south korea. 250,000 jobs. china, into the wto supported by sleepy joe biden. democrats want to raise your taxes. tell me about that. tell me about that. yoi guess i am old-fashioned. you know, all my life, all my lifefe i heard politicians lower taxes, not raise them. the democrats want to

substantially raise your taxes. >> okay. llwhat do you think? he is hitting all the themes right there. >> donald trump elected in many cases because hillary clinton represented the establishment. joe biden was elected to congress 1972. he has been in washington, d.c. the realityha is this president begun to shake up that establishment order. he made changes in joe biden continues to support keeping with china. this president has a different answer. this president lower taxes. the failed policy to the left. listen to aoc on the environment >> thank you for joining us. come back soon. >> thank you for having me. liz: next out. media research. founder of the media research center. now sarah sanders on this attack on john bolton.

memoir from former white house press secretary sarah sanders. sarah sanders writes that during president trump's visit to london last year "bolton was a classic case of senior white house official drunk on power who had forgotten that nobody elected him to anything. let's welcome back to the show president founder brent. great to have you back on. what do you think of the media coverage of this story. bolton often acted like he was the president pushing an agenda contrary to president trump. your take care. >> let's look at the history here. john bolton up until last fall, in the eyes of the media, was a political equivalent of covid-19. four years they projected him as some knuckle dragging fire breathing -- but then he turned on the president and suddenly all was forgiven, all was

forgotten. now he is a hero. just last night on abc, he was on there for an hour. this is something you give to celebrities unless it's a person that is attacking donald trump. the last time someone got that treatment was james comey. now you have sarah sanders, her explosive take and her book, do you think, elizabeth, she will be given an hour of time on primetime television to tell her story? you think sarah sanders will be given five minutes to tell her story? john bolton is going after the president. >> i hear what you are saying. let's talk about what sarah sanders said happened with john bolton. she is saying this in her memoir. they go to lunch. they felt it was too important to travel on the bus with the rest of the team. he had his own motorcade. that is pretty arrogant and selfish. so arrogant and selfish on a

regular basis. not even treasury secretary had his own motorcade. let's face it, john, you are self-righteous self-centered son of a [bleep]. that is what is happening. south korea is now disputing john bolton's take on what happened with the summit with north korea. south korea is saying john bolton you distorted and twisted what happened. you know, more people in the room besides john bolton. your take on that. >> just look what you recited. an alphabet soup of administrational officials who have come out with stories about john bolton that are quite negative. you have international leaders that are now saying he is not telling the truth. you have members of congress saying he has not telling the truth. things that the media themselves could have found that the media were reporting the truth about john bolton. no interest into looking into

whether or not he is telling the truth. i repeat, the only thing they care about is the fact that he is attacking the president. the only serious question that he got, the only tough question that he got was why did you not come after the president during the impeachment hearing? these are all questions that the media could have asked. they could have investigated. all of these untruths that are coming from john bolton. they have no interest in it whatsoever because he's going after the president. liz: we reported last week when the story broke that it may be a one-week story. it is starting to look like the bolton book is a one-week story. democrats looking like they are folding. they will not bring bolton into testify. they talked about it. going after the president. looks like democrats stacking off of that. watch this. >> i think to the length and agreed that he indicts donald trump, he also indicts himself

for cowardice and for greed. there were people that did come forward. people who risked their careers. he lacked that basic courage and patriotism. it was only the grade that made him come forward in this book. >> democrat jerry nadler now saying not calling in john bolton. your take. >> there is something very smelly about john bolton. it is very unfortunate. he has sold his soul to the. ♪ on this one. no one likes a trader. he is a traitor to the president that he served. >> thank you, liz. >> the reports are coming in. a criminal probe are the trump pressure probe may be out by the end of the summer. we have news that a powerful republican senator is now demanding 143 pages of

liz: more on the criminal probe of the trump russia probe. chuck grassleygr the powerful chairman of senate finance now demanding answers from a little-known pentagon office. an office at the pentagon that may be behind the leaks to the media to fuel and sustain probes into people like michael flynn and also the trump russia probe. that's when the fbi was admitting internally it's case was falling apart.

let's welcome former assistant u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york andrew mccarthy. it's great to have you back on, andrew. senator grassley gave james baker at the pentagon a second to talk to him and his committee. what was your reaction when you first heard this story? >> i think, liz, they are clearly looking at two different things that have been big issues for a long time. around general flynn and the informant involved in the trump russia investigation. one thing is, who leaked the conversation? the conversation between general flynn when he was the designated to be trump national security advisor and ambassador who was a russian ambassador? that conversation wasr intercepted by the fbi, we now

know, all of that stuff is classified. whoever gave that to the washington post was conveying classified information. they have been trying to look into who did that. they know now that this guy from the office at the pentagon did have a relationship and did exchange messages with him. they have not connected the dots that he is the one. i think that flynn's attorney has made that allegation, but i do not know that they have proved it. a lot of sources amply investigations are really hard. we will see where that goes. they are clearly looking at that. the other thing they are looking at is these studies for the office that looked like they are a little bit fishy. they paid him an awful lot of money. the thing that you wonder is,

hewas this the way that they pad him to do the informant work that he did for the f vi and trying to get at carter page and the others who was used as an informant to try to infiltrate the trump campaign. >> nodded. we have james baker at the assessment office saying he was not behind it. they are denying it. the backdrop is this. the people in government were leaking to the media when the fbion in early 2016-2017 said we don't have a case, rod rosenstein said they knew at that time they did not have a case. james clapper testified in 2017 we have no empirical evidence to connect trump to russia conspiracy. lisa page peter struck said words to that as well. they did not have a case. ougovernment official start

leaking to the media so they can say, look, here is a washington post story, here is a york times story, we have to keep these probes going. we are seeing in the document about how these were fueled and sustained. we did not have the evidence when it was falling apart. the guy that was basically called on as an informant to spy on the trump campaign. he works in this office. you see what is going on here. different areas of the government being called in to spy on the trump campaign. that is what it feels like when you look at it from the outside, andrew. your take. >> i actually wrote a book about this about a year ago. what i think happened is they did not expect trump to win, although they did start to sow the seeds for this trump russia connection before the election. i think once trump did when they knew in 10 weeks he was going to

take over the government and he would haveel access to all the intelligence files. he would know the investigation they had done on his campaign. they use that 10 weeks in order to project the impression that there really was a trump russia conspiracy that needed to be worried about and investigated. i think that that is what all of these leaks were about. liz: let's listen to president trump saying he never knew how "swamp was." saying that it is pretty awful. watch this. >> draining the swamp. i never knew it was so deep, but it is happening. it is happening. i never knew that it was so deep. a lot of bad characters. >> the question is, andrew, does the american taxpayer want to pay forke stuff like that? >> i sure hope not. i think the most irresponsible

part of this is we do need these counterintelligence powers to protect the country against jihadist and people that want to kill americans. it is really bad because they have lost their constituency on capitol hill. >> andrew mccarthy, always great to have you on. thank you for your insight and your perspective. great to have you on. good to see you. we will stay on this story. growing questions in washington. new details coming forward questioning why exactly was robert mueller appointed to do the molar probe when the fbi knew the case was falling apart? we have more on government officials using a secure and rarely cited law to go after the trump team. this going off the rails. digging into the documents, digging into the footnotes as we have been doing for three years now. thknowing better than most americans what it is like to be

♪ liz: okay. welcome back. we have digging into the government footnotes. growing questions in washington over why the molar probe was launched to begin with after fbi officials and doj officials say by early 2017 the fbi and doj had not turned up any evidence in the trump russia pro. the former fbi director james comey arrange media leaks against robert mueller appointed based upon obscure violations of never rarely used laws? let's welcome former trump campaign foreign policy advisor and current fox news national security and foreign policy

analyst. what do you think? >> thank you for having me. basically, yes. many experts, i am one of them. we are asking the question, if it was not the russia trump campaigngn connection, what wast about? most likely foreign policy as well. about an obama foreign policy. specifically in my own view, the iran dealth that there was concn about. very concerned that the next administration, president trump now would change it, would cancel it and as you had discussed earlier, there was no idea that he would win. when he won, there was sort of a scrambling to make sure that there would be measures to protect. >> okay. let's go through it. what happened was in early 2017, james comey would testify testified that when he left the

fbi there was no active investigation into president trump. 7,james klapper testified in 207 there was no empirical evidence connecting trump russia conspiracy. he had the same language. then you have a farrah probe. meaning that george, michael flynn, you know, you had paul manna for accused of basically violating obscure laws. critics say if you have ever been charged with violations of these laws, you did not register with the u.s. government has being a lobbyist for a foreign government. ga you think this is a pretext to authorize a political opponent when there was no there there as rod rosenstein says? >> the intensity of investigating farrah laws or the ralogan act, these have not been

applied, let's assume that these are laws and they need to be investigated. the russia trump campaign link? there isn't. what happened is once the agency has concluded at the end of 2016, as far as we understand now, that there was no connection between russia and the campaign in terms of policy, then probably somewhere, at what level we don't know, there was a shift to look at those liberal cases of pharaoh or logan act. liz: stay on that. >> yes. >> stay on that for a second. i am sorry to interrupt. why was robert mueller appointed to special counsel? if you have no evidence, why was he even appointed to special counsel to probe trump russia collusion. the probe was launched as a violation because george poppel doll of -- over drinks out of

london pub. the russians hacked the democrats e-mails and those leaks could come to the trump campaign's way. do you see what i mean? they did not have trump russia conspiracy case there. why was he even appointed? >> as i testified to the senate myself, the senate, the house, i made the case. that is not how russia operates. you cannot in a few months have the russian leadership trying to create a huge influence in an american campaign. it has never been before and it cannot be. the russia connection was not even logical to be there. therefore, i agree with your point. they may have shifted because there was nothing in the russia connection. >> i will tell you. many violation criminal

prosecutions in the obama administration as there were in the four-year from the mid 60s-2015. that is r what was going on. they really ramped it up. great to have you on. thank you so much for your perspective. really appreciate it. >> thank y you, liz. liz: another defining issue for 2020. bringing on mark green from homeland security on president trump. going tos visit the border. safety for americans. a winning issue. an election historically. we will talk about it next. ♪ there are times when our need to connect really matters. to keep customers and employees in the know. to keep business moving. comcast business is prepared for times like these. powered by the nation's largest gig-speed network.

border wall. border officials keep telling us it helps. it stops crime, sex trafficking, drug. they say it works. what do you say? >> absolutely. i agree 100%. we have to listen to our professionals that do this every day. i have been there several times and watched the people, the wall sort of keeps people into the surf certain traffic areas. you t also have the third brigae at the 100 first airborne division now h right from my hometown on the border providing observation and assisting these people. all of these assets combined in the wall is a very important part of that protect our southern border and protect people, they protect the immigrants that are attempting to come into the country. it protects them, too. it is a good idea. >> we have been covering the border for years now.
