5:00 am
i'm jamie colby. thanks so much for watching "strange inheritance," and remember -- you can't take it with you. but we're plug alod we're just going to keep doing what we're doing. ♪ muck ♪ lou: good evening, everybody. the radical dem' politics of hate is in full, ugly view as cross many streets in america's largest cities, and democrat-run cities all across the country. deadly shootings over the weekend, those shootings are rising, murder rates are soaring, and left-wing activist groups like antifa and black lives matter have been emboldened by radical dems and corporate interests like never before. the left's culture of lawlessness resulting in another weekend of widespread, brutal violence. 51 people shot in new york city this weekend, 7 of them shot and
5:01 am
killed including an off-duty corrections officer. in philadelphia 25 shootings there, 7 people killed. 25 more wounded. cincinnati is on track to have its worst year ever for homicides, 20 people shot over the weekend, 4 of them killed. in chicago, 64 people shot, 5 of them killed, and among the wounded a 12-year-old boy and six teenagers. savages brutal violence like we haven't seen before, but in portland, oregon, all of this has become routine. people there aren't simply activists or anarchists, they are insurrectionists. they chased a truck driver last night through city streets and caused him to crash, then they drug him from his truck into the street, and there the thugs assaulted him, one of them viciously kicking him unconscious. police didn't arrive until minutes later, and then they
5:02 am
were met by the hostile crowd. the driver is in the hospital tonight suffering serious injuries. no arrests have been made. we should not be surprised at that because, indeed, in that city they don't, they say, prosecute. but at the same time, according to prosecutors they are now starting to say they will prosecute in some cases x. in seattle another riot last night. black lives matter thugs caught on camera. i think beat, they shoved counterprotesters. they were carrying baseball bats. the mob also attacked police officers, throwing bottles if fireworks. they injured three cops. they sent one of them to the hospital. he has a serious injury to his eye. in response to the endless violence and hate from the radical dems in the northwest, president trump is now offering his own message of law and order. here's what he had to say today
5:03 am
during a stop in minnesota. >> we will bring back law and order to your community, we will bring it back, and we'll brung it back immediately. [applause] the words law and order are words that democrats don't like to use. they don't think they're prettilied another good. there's nothing wrong with law and order. as president, my goal to restore safety to our streets and to help these innocent americans rebuild their lives and rebuild their lives very quickly. that's what i'm here for. by contrast, the democrats are promising to elevate their left-wing war on drugs and bring it to the white house in the form of sleepy joe biden. i don't think that's going to work. lou: and as chaos reigns in those democrat-run cities and the violence and the death, the radical dems in congress are using the u.s. postal service, trying to extend the democratic national convention a few days. speaker of the house pelosi waiting until saturday to have
5:04 am
congress vote in her effort to block president trump's reform of the u.s. postal service. pelosi today told her radical dem colleagues that the postal service provides critical services like delivering prescriptions and social security checks. well, we've got a bullet in for the speaker. the postal services do not mail social security checks. the post office hasn't done that since 2013. are you all right, madam speaker? the social security administration even says on their web site you no longer have to wait for the mail or worry about lost or stolen checks. they don't mention anything about ballots though. that's odd, don't you think? the postmaster general has been called to testify before the house oversight committee next monday. that's also the first day of the republican national convention. president trump today had this to say about the radical dem'
5:05 am
pathetic -- dems' pathetic efforts. >> this has been one of the disasters of the world, the way it's been run. it's been run horribly, and we're going to make it good. now, what am i supposed to do, let it continue to run badly? so if you fix it, they say, oh, he's tampering with the election. no, we're not tampering. this is a con game by pelosi and schumer. there's $25 million sitting there, or but they really want $1 trillion to bail out their badly-run states. lou: and badly run is an understatement for the u.s. postal service and the effort by pelosi and the radical dems to turn the postal service into election central as speaker pelosi e referred to it is nothing short of insane. yet she persists, which is also another sign of insanity.
5:06 am
u.s. attorney john durham reportedly will interview former cia director john brennan this week, a development that should have happened months ago but any measure, any standard, and one that seems, well, designed to further delay justice for those who plotted to subvert and to overthrow the presidency of donald trump. the patience of the american people has, to say the least, worn thin as a result of rinos in the senate like senator lindsey graham, the left-wing national media and others who try to recycle and rehash stories about obamagate as if the investigators didn't know full well after reading a few newspapers or watching a few television news shows just what to expect and where to go find it. and just how long should the american people have to wait for justice in well, joining us is one of the men at the forefront of trying to bring the obamagate conspiracy to haves --
5:07 am
conspirators to justice. he is congressman devin nuñes, ranking member of the house intelligence committee. congressman, great to have you with us. we're getting, well, word from our colleague maria bartiromo that her sources tell her that john brennan will be finally, at long last, interviewed this friday. your thoughts. >> well, i've always believed that if you tart at the bottom, if you get the documents, if you get the e-mails, if you get the text messages, you may remember it took us, the house republicans, so long to get through that because we had so many people at the doj and the fbi trying to stop us, and it wasn't until attorney general barr approved that we got -- arrived that we got a real investigation with real investigators. so my guess is the sign that they are interviewing now the very highest people shows that durham has gotten his way through i all of those documents, all of the criminal referrals, all of the lower level people, and he's now getting to the people at the top
5:08 am
that were in charge, lou. i think that's where we're at. and, look, i can't confirm, i have not heard from the durham people at all, and i have not heard this from anyone else e, but i'm assuming that you guys there at fox business have your sources. lou: well, the idea that this investigation continues to limp along, and i can say perhaps you cannot say because you have to work with many of the people i'm describing and talking about whether it's senator graham who decided that he would ask director wray who did the senate briefing. he sid bill priestap, and then we find out there are four others and he didn't name those. right now the people of south carolina, or it seems to meing congressman, is have a real difficult situation on their hands. they've got a sitting senator who is republican who they can't determine whether he's for donald trump or against him,
5:09 am
whether he's for transparent e city or against it, whether he wants to investigate or he doesn't. but the record shows clearly he is one of the worst investigative chairmen in the history of the united united sts senate, does it not? >> well, look, i'm not going to throw stones because at least he has the gavel, and he is getting out information we haven't been able to get out. and, lou, look, remember i was on last week, and you asked me, you know, nothing's happening, nothing's happening. but despite what the main stream media has tried to do, they've tried to hide the fact that one of the top attorneys that was leading this investigation into the trump campaign through 2016 and '17, the man who had said vive he resistance, the french-speaking doj attorney, the person who was caught with all these dirty text messages back and forth to people -- lou: right. >> -- he is going to be indicted this week. so this is a key -- lou: right.
5:10 am
>> -- part of a spoke in the wheel. it's one of the probably ten people involved in terms of the doj and the fbi with the clinton campaign. i do think, lou, as frustrating as it is, we are making progress. lou: it is progress, i would acknowledge. and i am delighted that kevin clinesmith is going to be the standing before a, well, as it turns out, the head of the fisa court that he betrayed. but he will be doing so, standing before that judge, in his role as district court judge, federal district court judge. i mean, isn't that a little screwed up, that we would have -- [laughter] a conflict like that on the bench? i am in no way a sympathizer for clinesmith, but it just looks ludicrous. >> it does. i saw that today. i was a little bit shocked. just to reiterate so your viewers understand, the fisa
5:11 am
court, there are, i don't know, about i think 6-9 youngs that make up -- judges that make up the fisa court. of course, we've been investigating for a long time. it just so happened the new head of that fisa court who's now in charge of that a fisa court who also sits as an existing judge, as you said, is somehow in charge of this case. finish i don't know if there's a reason there, but i would assume the attorney general and u.s. attorney durham have raised those concerns if there are concerns. but i did find that highly unusual. i'll leave it at that because i'm sure there's more to it that we may not know yet. lou: you have said that so much more artfully than i ever could, because it looks just screwball as hell to me. congressman devin nuñes, we always thank you for being here. we appreciate your insight and look forward to talking with you again soon. thanks so much. congressman devin nuñes. up next, china, china joe biden rolls out a new campaign ad, and he's, well, he's
5:12 am
actually got a terrific agenda. you'll be very familiar with it because it's been the prime minister's agenda for three -- the president's agenda for three and a half years, most of which he's already accomplished. we'll take that up and more as we examine the record of china joe. and my new book, "the trump century," available for preorder. get your copies at thetrumpcentury.com, amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com. we'll be right back with some fascinating polls that just happen to show the president elevating, elevating, i tell you. we'll be right back. ♪ ♪ we love our new home. there's so much space. we have a guestroom now. but, we have aunts. you're slouching again, ted. expired, expired... expired. thanks, aunt bonnie. it's a lot of house. i hope you can keep it clean. at least geico makes bundling our home and car insurance easy. which helps us save a lot of money oh, teddy. did you get my friend request?

5:16 am
lou: breaking news now, the biden/has campaign launched a new ad over the weekend targeting president trump's china virus pandemic response. the ad highlighting biden's call to expand testing, calling for nationwide mask mandates and to produce protective gear in the united states. now, the united states has already conducted more tests than any other nation in the world. the president has already called wearing a mask to prevent the spread patriotic but believes as a matter of your constitutional rights he does not have the
5:17 am
authority to mandate such. and the president has invoked the defense production act 78 times to manufacture those essential protective materials here at home. president trump's polling numbers moving in the right direction, which is bad news for china joe biden. in just two months, biden's lead over the president has gone from 14 points to just 4 in the cnn poll. president trump leads biden on dealing with the economy, dealing with crime, and they also like his leadership much better than what they perceive that of china joe biden. looks like there's something to former president obama's assessment of biden. according to politico, the former president told one democrat, quote: don't underestimate joe's ability to -- expletive deleted -- things up.
5:18 am
well, president trump is in wisconsin talking about his administration's efforts to bring the economy back in the wake of the china virus pandemic. china joe won't be traveling to wisconsin despite it not being chosen to host this week's democratic national convention. in fact, biden hasn't traveled much of anywhere the past couple months. the farthest -- we have measured this -- the farthest he's been from his wilmington, delaware, basement is scranton. that's 140 miles. and since june 17th, china joe has traveled all of 25 miles to a philadelphia suburb. the trip to scranton, 6 miles to new castle, delaware, twice to washington, d.c. just over 100 miles and just over990 miles to the -- 90 miles to the delaware coast. that's the extent of china joe's excursions from his basement. did i mention the president was in minnesota, wisconsin and has four more trips?
5:19 am
breaking news now, more than 200 members of the mormon church haas week published an open letter opposing president trump after the campaign recently launched a latter day saints for trump coalition. never in their letter did these apparently disgruntled mormons talk about their senator mitt romney's action as the lone republican senator who voted to convict the president who was obviously innocent in the radical dem' sham impeachment trial -- dems' sham impeachment trial, nor his hesitancy to investigate joe biden or the romney-burisma connection through a friend and ties that appears it might be politicized. president trump leads biden by 19 points in utah, home of the mormon church, according to the
5:20 am
latest news from the desert news, the hinkley institute polling. joining us tonight is pulitzer prize-winning columnist for the new york post, fox business contributor michael goodwin. michael, good to see you. let's start with, let's just start with the mormons and romney. romney coming out against the president, no surprise. this is a man who is filled with bitter fruit. he cannot stand it. his envy of the president, his jealousy, it goes to levels i've never witnessed in any human being. your thoughts about that expect mormonture -- and the mormon church, apparently, to let loose a force of 200 to work against this president. >> yeah. good evening, lou. i mean, the 200, i guess, could be family and friends of mitt romney. it's not a particularly large
5:21 am
group of people when you consider the overall mormon population in utah, arizona and other states. so i think it's probably much ado about nothing at the end of all of this because i don't think that there is a pro-biden movement in the traditional republican states, and certainly for mormons who tend to be conservative in all ways, this is nothing conservative about joe biden, about kamala harris, about the democratic party these days. as i think we will see over the next four nights. lou: they were speaking as mormons, and that's what made the group unique in talking about the is not steady like mormons are in their lives expect choices he's made. they apparently don't care for leadership that produces the strongest economy in american history, the lowest unemployment rates for minorities, the strongest military that the country has ever had because he committed to rebuilding it and
5:22 am
the strongest stance against the policies of free trade that would have cost millions more jobs than already it had under clinton, under bush and obama. >> yeah. you know, lou, ed koch, late mayor of new york, used to say that if you agree with me on 9 out of 12 issues, you should support me. if you agree with me on 12 out of 12 issues, you should see a psychiatrist. and i think the mormons here -- [laughter] are perhaps asking for too much when they insist that trump has to conform to their desires 100%. as you say, he did many of the things that most republicans view as great for the economy, strong on foreign policy, lower taxes, lower regulations. they don't like some of trump's personality and high style choices, but -- [inaudible conversations]
5:23 am
lou: i mean, i think we're past the tweeting. yeah, i think we're well past as a country, except for those who have real mental issues, we're past their evaluation of his personal few, husband tweet -- personality, his tweets. here's a man talking directly to the american people every day, and amongst those people who are listening, i guess, is, you know, among them mario cuomo. he found out that new york state was in play from this president. he's also hearing that his good friend, bill de blasio, the mayor of new york city, isn't popular. this hooks like more than -- looks like more than just a little rift, this looks like it could be interesting. your thoughts. >> well, look, i think that new york is imploding right now. fox has done a good job of covering the exodus really of
5:24 am
people getting out. and, you know, the midtown lawyer, most exclusive, some of the most exclusive shopping areas in the country, in the world even are largely empty. the stores are vacant up and down fifth avenue, madison avenue. it is shocking, what has happened -- lou: it's stunning. >> yeah. and it's lightning speed. i mean, the crime is out of control. the police have clearly retreated. the political class seems paralyzed by fear of -- lou: you tell me, you tell me against this backdrop, mike -- i'm sorry to interrupt you, but we're jammed for time. against this backdrop you can clearly see what the left's urban dreams are, and they are a nightmare. you can see what black lives, what lives really matter to them, and not much has to be the answer across the country. the ignorance of this moment on the part of the left has to be a convincing if not landslide win for president trump.
5:25 am
>> well, it'll be very interesting to see over the next four nights of the convention whether any democrat takes on this monolithic view that the police are bad. even if you don't want to defund them, we want to take away some of their money anyway. we want to spend more money on social services. we want to do affirmative action endlessly, have a quota system. be interesting to see if any of that is challenged x if anyone says the violence must stop, i will be shocked. lou: yeah. and i think the country is in shock right now. and if the radical dem think this is a winning strategy -- dems think this is a winning strategy, they are out of their ever-loving minds. michael goodwin, appreciate it. i'd like to hear your thoughts. follow he on twitter @loudobbs like me onfacebook, follow me on instagram @loudobbstonight. tomorrow michael pillsbury,

5:31 am
after these reports, thaw claim, that iran had paid taliban-backed terrorists for at least six attacks carried against our forces in afghanistan. our next guest plays a key role in the construction of the president's middle east foreign policy and now peace plan. joining us is u.s. special representative for iran, senior policy adviser to the secretary of state brian hook. and, brian, it is great to have you with us. thank you, mr. ambassador, we appreciate it. and congratulations to you, the administration and the president once again on this extraordinary, historic agreement between israel and the uae, something that not many people were either expecting or thought possible. your judgment, if we may to begin with. >> well, lou, you're right. the president made history last week with an agreement between the uae and israel. and this is the first president to do it since 1994.
5:32 am
a lot of people during that period have tried and failed, but the president pulled it off. and, lou, i think you should take a step back and consider what things were like three and a half year ago when he came into office. you had isis, a terrorist army the size of ohio, in the middle east. you had peace between the arabs and the israelis completely stalled. and you had an iranian regime that was made rich by the iran nuclear deal, and they were a marching across the region. the president defeated eye us, he countered iran -- eye us. he left -- isis. he left the iran nuclear deal, and now he has a peace agreement. and we are very hopeful that this is the beginning of more good news from the region x there has not been a lot of good news from the middle east for a long time. but the agreement just a few days ago was a really important moment in history. lou: a terrific moment. and there is also the obvious challenge to iran built into this agreement; that is, between
5:33 am
the uae and israel. the iranians cannot be pleased, and this could forestall its, their strategy in the region. your thoughts about the importance vis-a-vis iran. >> lou, i'm glad you brought this up because the peace agreement is a defeat for iran. no country in the world has a done more to create conflict between the arabs expect israelis than -- and israelis than iran. this is a bug defeat for them. and on -- a big defeat. and on friday we saw the president of iran threaten uae. so i think the uae has joined a very exclusive clubs os -- club of nations that has made peace with israel. the united states is going to want, to i think, deepen our defense ties with the uae to make sure they're very well postured against threats from iran. lou: one of those threats being,
5:34 am
again, at least mitigated, the united states seizing iranian oil headed toward venezuela. the united states ratcheting up its pressure on iran, without question. what should we expect in the weeks and months awe -- ahead? >> if you look back three and a half years ago when the president took office, iran today is by almost every metric weaker. they're facing their worst financial crisis in their 41-year history, and their proxies are much weaker. they don't have the money that they used to to fund their terrorist operations x. that's because we've had a very successful maximum pressure campaign. but the president has also restored deterrence that was lost under the prior administration. this is a president that endorsed -- that enforces husband red lines, and that makes my job as a diplomat a lot easier. so i think you should expect to see continued success, and in a
5:35 am
second term -- we have built such a great foundation, and in a second term, we're going to, the president very much would like to get to a deal with the iranian regime, but so many other things. more peace agreements, greater prosperity in the region, greater stability. lou: and i've got the conclude with asking you if there is any validity, if you can comment on the validity of the reports that iran was, indeed, paying bounties to the taliban to kill our troops. >> well, lou, as you know, the iranian regime has a long history of using proxies to do their dirty work. now, this president has severely degraded iran's proxies because we went after their central banker. and i think one thing the iranians understand very clearly, and you referenced the killing of soleimani, this is a president that's going to protect and defend american lives, and he's going to protect and defend our allies and partners. and so i think the iranians and the taliban need to think twice
5:36 am
about doing anything that will risk the lives of americans and our partners in the region we have the right policy in place, and we very much hope that we can get to an agreement. we would like to see an end to the war. iran would like to see endless war. so we're going to keep focused on a peace agreement. lou: ambassador brian hook, we thank you very much, the state department special representative to iran. thank you so much. up next, a radical dem squad member wants more chaos in the streets, more violence. we'll be talking with larry eller when we comet. and a reminder, my new book is ready for your preorder, "the trump century: how our president changed the course of history forever." get your copy or copies at thetrumpcentury.com, amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com. we'll be right back, stay with us, please. ♪ ♪

5:42 am
to do that, anyone to do it and for the radical dems to sponsor this nonsense, this viciousness, this disgusting, appalling state of affairs, it just sickens me. your reaction. >> well, in her defense, lou, what she said was unrest. and i think what she meant was as long as, in her view, we have police brutality against black people, we should have unrest in the streets. in my opinion, a far more incendiary and outrageous statement was made at john lewis' funeral when he said we all witness police officers, plural, kneeling on the necks, plural, of black americans, plural. can you imagine if, for example, president trump said when o.j. simpson called ron and nicole we all witnessed black men, plural, slitting the throats of white people, plural? it would be outrageous. and what obama said got a complete and total pass. and, of course, it's this fake,
5:43 am
phony narrative that the police are out to get black people just because they're black, and there have been lots of studies showing it is not true. if anything, the police are more reluctant to use force against a black person very likely for fear of being accused racist. lou: well, what about black lives matter? what about antifa? the death and destruction. they're responsible for, and let's be very clear i'm saying they are responsible for this. they have unleashed a wave of unrest in this country, if i can use pressley's word, because it's not disobedience. this is unrest. this is violence. and dog whistles and code words don't work for me. you know what she's calling for, i know what she's calling for, and so do the people in those streets. they are taking black lives every weekend, and antifa and black lives matter dare, dare to

suggest they are the great arbiters of what is beneficial to american lives? these people are -- whoever pays attention to these people and why? explain it to me, larry. explain it to me. [laughter] >> the whole thing is outrageous. but understand this is democratic policies 101. the idea is to perpetuate the notion that black people are perpetual victims of police oppression. and, again, you have people like eric holder who made statements about pernicious racism claiming that blacks get longer sentences than white criminal defendants for the same crime without telling people the reason for this discrepancy is the fact that the typical black criminal has a longer record than the white criminal. the democrats have been pushing this narrative for decades, and the end result is some number of people are going to be out committing violence because they buy into the b.s. lou: yeah, and the b.s. is being
5:45 am
shoveledded everywhere and not least of those places over the airwaves where you're watching commercial from corporate america talking about black lives matter as if they were some sort of adjunct organization to the boy scouts. it is insane, what they're doing. it's a marxist organization that means to divide and to disrupt and, ultimately, devastate this nation. >> and it's getting people killed, lou, the very people that the black lives matter purports to care about are the ones that get hurt by what's called the ferguson effect. pulling back for fear of being called racist, the bad guys know it, and the people that get hurt are the ones the so-called black lives matter proponents care about. half of the homicides in the country are black people, almost all of them killed by other black men. why aren't they talking about the damage by the destruction of the nuclear family?

overnight. biden was strongly in favor of the trans-pacific partnership, would have destroyed our automobile manufacturing business. it would have been a disaster for our country. i ended it. but i approved the dakota access pipeline immediately -- [cheers and applause] the keystone pipeline, 48,000 jobs. [applause] one of the great ripoffs that was done, in my opinion, to hurt our country because we have so many energy, we're now energy independent, was i got out of this horrible paris climate accord which was a ripoff on our country. [cheers and applause] it would have shipped millions of american jobs to china while allowing china to pollute with impunity, and and they don't even enter the agreement until 2030, so it would have been a disaster. so many things are stacked against us even in the world trade organization. china is considered a developing
5:54 am
nation, therefore, they get been fits. guess what? we don't accept it. we're not approving any of those judges until such time as that ends. [applause] so time and again sleepily joe biden -- sleepy joe biden put china first and america last even to the point where his son, who had absolutely -- where's hunter? he's had absolutely no experience, walked away with $1.5 million and millions of dollars a year, if if you go to the pros of wall street, they'll tell you it was an impossibility. he went to a 10-minute meeting, how do you think he's to do negotiating, biden, against china, okay? nobody's done to what i've done to china, to russia -- and, by the way, remember? we were going to be in a war with north korea. what happened to the war? we're getting along. kim jong un, we get along.

5:56 am
hold how manien that one. [laughter] -- hold him on that one. the bigger mistake is when he says he's in a different state that he's speaking. great to be in the great state of ohio! no, we're not in ohio. [laughter] you know what you do when that happens? you just walk off because there's nothing you can do to recover. [laughter] happened to him, what, six times. almost every time. that's why he doesn't talk. he's shot. he's shot. we've got to -- look, one thing i've learned, putin, president xi of china, right, kim jong un, erdogan of turkey, they are world class chess players. we can't have a guy who's shot and in his best years wasn't very good. these guys are world class chess players. [applause] they're all dreaming. they're all dreaming of joe biden. i will tell you who is dreaming about him is iran? if we win, when we win, and we
5:57 am
will have a deal with iran immediately. they're just waiting hoping that biden gets in john kerry is saying -- if anybody violated the logan act it was john kerry, right? john kerry. not general flynn, john kerry. the cost of health insurance for american families has skyrocketed under obama and biden by $4800 and nearly 11 million americans were on food stamps. biden, abysmal record. you have to check swine flu, that was peanuts compared to this monster. this monster is the worst thing that has happened in this world since 1917, right? where it could been 100 million people died. swine flu though, look at his ratings in gallup. they gave them really bad ratings. joe biden, not that that matters, but that matter, right?
5:58 am

[cheers and applause] i told japan, i told japan, prime minister abe, great guy, but i said, prime minister, you have to build places in michigan, you have to build your your places in other countries, other areas of our country. it's not fair. we have a big deficit. go to wisconsin. go to ohio. go to these places. he said he is going to do it. many, many japanese plants are being built all over our country. somebody had to ask him to do it. somebody had to tell him to do it. it is all happening. now it came in. it is going out. watch now good the third quarter
