i'm jamie colby. and that's one strange inheritance no one would take with them. ♪ boondoggle. he's having chicken drive through for dinner. ♪ must ♪ lou: good evening, everybody. president trump today having a great day, a day that any president could only dream of. president trump started off the day with a nomination for the nobel peace prize. that nomination comes weeks after president trump brokered an historic peace deal between us israel and the united arab emirates. it's an achievement that has eluded every president, every administration since the towning of israel in 19 -- founding of israel in 1948. and a member of norway's parliament submitted the nomination and praised president trump for his efforts to resolve

conflicts nationwide. >> you don't ask for the personality of the people, you ask for the performance of the people. what he does domestically is not, it's not matters. it's exactly what you achieve in international diplomats, and president trump has proven that he's worthy of the nobel peace prize. lou: and former president obama was nominated for the nobel peace prize as well, but his nomination came just only after 11 days, 11 days in office. it was a decision that was followed by increased instability around the world and further u.s. military entanglement. in contrast, president trump holds an exemplary diplomat you can record. he has defeated isis, held peace talks with north korea, taken on china's predatory trade practices and expansionary foreign policy. he's strengthened gnaw toe,

holding its members accountable for the financing of the alliance. he's brokered peace deals between the taliban and afghan officials as well as kosovo and serbia most recently. and just today president trump followed through on his promise to get america off out of what seemingly were endless wars. more than a thursday of our troops in iraq will be brought home this month, cut from 5,200 to 3,000. here's white house press secretary kay hi mcenany on today's announcement. >> we believe that now is the time when we can make this drawdown, keep the country stable because of the training that our troops have done. and the facts tell the story that this president broke the 39-year-old streak of american presidents either starting a war or bringing the united states into an international armed conflict. so unlike past presidents, this president has prioritized peace through strength, which is husband foreign policy.

his foreign policy. lou: and it was a day of many gift for president trump with 55 days til the election. new polling shows president trump has kept joe biden's -- cut joe biden's lead in half. rasmussen now showing president trump only two points behind biden among likely u.s. voters. a week ago that lead was four points. president trump is also surging in critical battleground states. morning consult shows since the conventions president trump has cut into biden's lead in colorado, minnesota, north carolina and pennsylvania. president trump also gaining in ohio where he now holds a five-point lead over biden as well as in georgia where the president has a two-point lead. president trump tied with china joe in florida now, each with 48%. it's a state where 50% of latinos say they're voting to reelect president trump. that is a 15-point gain for the

president among florida latinos compared to the vote in the 2016 election. impressive. and while it's still too early to say the sunsetting on joe biden -- sun is setting on joe biden9 and the radical dems' chances this november, biden today did embark on the biggest flip-flop in american presidential history. a man who's been aaccused of plagiarism throughout his career is now copying the playbook of his adversary, the playbook and the agenda. and that adversary just happenses to be the incumbent president he's running against. at an event in warren, michigan, joe biden took the extraordinary move of adopting the economic policies of the president he's running against. biden said his administration promise to buy american, build more american infrastructure and bring back more american jobs from overseas. does that sound familiar? biden made that speech in front

of only a handful of people who were in little circles that were properly socially distanced. his speech a rebuke of his own nearly half century of economic failures, millions of u.s. jobs outsourced, shipped to china and other cheap labor markets around the world. and try as he might to change his position, biden also opposes fracking. but stay tuned on that as well. irrespective of the threat that would pose to america's continued energy independence. so why is biden adopting the policies of husband adversary -- his adversary? well, the poll numbers give us some answer. biden is currently up by five points in the average of the last five polls, but he was up by seven in the previous five polls, and far more than that leading up to the most recent two weeks. clearly, president trump is cutting into biden's lead and

gaining momentum. the polls not the only indicators of the president's surging strength. a big comeback today on wall street also a very positive indicator. the dow gaining 440 points, the s&p up 67, the nasdaq up 294. a big rebound to yesterday's decline. volume on the big board, 3.9 billion shares. crude oil regaining 3% to $38 a barrel. a reminder to listen to my reports three times a day coast to coast on the salem radio network. well, joining us tonight to take up these market gains and the president's leadership on the economy in particular, national economic council director larry kudlow. larry, good to have you with us. you guys must have been dreaming about this kind of response of the market today. your thoughts. >> thank you, lou. look, i think the market action

today was great, but i think the most extraordinary, wonderful thing today was nominating president trump for the nobel peace prize, one of the great honors you could possibly get. and did the stock market rise on that news because it helped his re-election? maybe it did, i don't know. i'll let others decide. but i will just tell you speaking personally, somebody honored to serve as a senior guy in his administration, getting nominated for the nobel peace prize, heck, lou, the dawnish guy was in the paper, he said i don't really like mr. trump, but his accomplishments in the middle east and in europe and elsewhere and nato are so amazing and china. that is just the most terrific headline today. i'm glad you mentioned it. i know you tweeted it out, thank you for that. the other networks don't want to cover it, too bad. it's a phenomenal thing. congrats to mr. trump. congrats to the president. lou: indeed, congratulations to

hum. it's the reason we led with it tonight. it's an extraordinary, as you say, commendation from the nobel committee, and it's an horn that he full -- an honor that he fully deserves. this administration has not extended our military as priest administrations have -- previous administrations have, and he he has eliminated the neo-cons' knew himmism. i'm sure they'll get over that, they have no choice. let's return to the economy. it is, we're seeing strong signs of that recovery. we also have a ways to go. give us your take on where we are right now with job creation, with a resurgent small business sector in this country and the restoration of manufacturing. >> yeah, i think you're right on both counts.

we are getting ourselves in much stronger recovery than a lot of people anticipated. we're not there yet, you know? there's still hardship out there. but getting the unemployment rate quickly to single digits, 8.4% -- virtually no one expected that before year enor even next year -- 3.8 million household jobs, it's the household small business survey that gets you the unemployment rate. so far we've created 10.6 million new payroll jobs, created 14 million new household jobs. those are big numbers in four months. and, again, we have much more work with to do. i understand that. but this is the right direction, it's a great beginning to what i think is going to be a great comeback. and i want to note one thing, lou. so many people, i don't know, there's a lot of ankle-biting going on, i know it's a political season, saying, well, it's just the well-to-do that are improving now in this period of the pandemic contraction. well, guess what? 70% of those jobs come from

low-pay industries. low-pay industries, okay? retailing, hospitality, restaurants and the low-end health care people. look, i have nothing against anybody succeeding. i have nothing against anybody getting good jobs, high-paid jobs, million their jobs. lou: good. >> but the fact that people keep harping on this, and it's just like the tax cuts. let's go back. after the tax cuts so many ankle-biters said only rich people benefit. and in fact, and i mean underscore fact, it was the middle income, it was the blue collar boom, it was the lower middle class jobs and wages that grew faster than the upper wages. so there you have it. we're off to a good start. the second half of the year you're going to get 20% plus in q3 and probably q4. it's a v-shaped recovery. we have more work to do, i get that. we need good tax incentives and trade policies and so forth.

but thankfully, prayerfully, as the virus comes back down, the economy is coming back up. lou: yep. and thanks to your hard work, that of the president's administration and, of course, his leadership throughout. and because you do have so much work, i do want to counsel you on this. you must leave these ankle-biters alone. [laughter] you know, every dog has fleas -- [laughter] it's the condition of the animal. >> i can't help myself. lou: you know, i understand that. i talk occasionally about -- [inaudible] who are somewhat annoying as well. [laughter] larry, thanks so much. congratulations. up next, attorney general william barr gives a major update on the success of operation legend and its impact. we take that up next with former civil rights activist bob woodson. and please preorder my new book, "the trump sent --

lou: breaking news now, a grand jurys indicted two women on hate crimes for stealing a 7-year-old boy's maga hat while he was outside the democratic national convention in delaware. this video shows cameron a imee and olivia winslow are taunting and taking husband hat from a 7-year-old boy. and then they cob fronted his mother and punched a man before they threw the little fella's hat over a fence. they got indicted for hate crimes. justice. can you believe, messing with 7-year-olds, for crying out loud. president trump recently sent riley a new hat signed by the

president himself. also breaking tonight, black liveses matter forcing out the black police chief in rochester, new york, as well as two of husband deputies. the african-american police chief in dallas, texas, also resigning. about 15 police chiefs have quit their jobs in just the last three months. several of those chiefs are black, like the one in richmond, virginia, and seattle. attorney general william barr today provided an upa date on the overwhelming success of operation legend, particularly in chicago since it was announced on july 22nd. >> over the first five weeks of operation legend in chicago, murders dropped by 50% over the previous five weeks. august ultimately saw a 45% decrease in murders compared to july and a 35% decrease compared

to june. in fact, chicago in august saw the lowest number of murders at any time since april. the bottom line is that operation legend has played a critical role in cutting chicago's murder rate roughly in half since before the operation. lou: impressive numbers. and last night in north carolina president trump rallying his supporters and railing against thed radical left are for trying to erase american history. the president pledging to restore patriotic education in our schools. >> we will restore patriotic education to our schools. [cheers and applause] they want to take away your history. that's why the monuments and the statues, they a want to knock 'em down. first time they do is take away your guns. you know it's guns. they take away your guns, your statues, your heros, they take

away your great generals, they take away your past. and i said it was going to happen. i said, you know what? they started off with generals, colonels and others that nobody ever heard of and i thought that was bad. and then they went up a little bit and all of a sudden, you know, someday it's going to be robert e. lee, someday it's going to be washington, someday it's going to be lincoln, someday it's going to be jefferson, someday it's going to be benjamin franklin. it's all of them. it's all of them. they take away your past. they're never taking away our past. lou: the president's call for patriotic education resonating with the american people. according to a brand new rasmussen survey, 57% of likely voters agree with the president that restoring patriotic education is essential to a shared national identity. well, joining us now is bob woodson, former civil rights activist. he headed the national urban

league department of criminal justice. he's the founder of the woodson center which helps residentses in low income neighborhoods, and, bob, good to have you with us. and i have have to start with all of the fuss and the hullabaloo being made the critical race theory that has been apparently or ordered by department heads of the federal government and, until this president, there was no constitution of -- there was no discussion of it. i want to get your thoughts about critical race theory and how in the world it has been so insinuated into our society and into educational institutions as well as the federal government. >> well, it certainly is widespread, lou. and i was looking for where in history has this been done before. and frederick douglass talked about one of the worst times on

slavery was during christmas because slaves were free for the holidays, but the slave owner wanted slaves to understand freedom to be freedom from responsibility. so he gave them rum, encouraged them to drink, they used to have competitions. so they wanted them to indulge themselves so that at the end of the holiday period they would gladly accept slavery to a man as opposed to slavery to rum. the radical left is doing the same thing today. douglass said also there were some slaves who didn't buy into it. they understood freedom to be freedom with responsibilities. so some of them, like douglass went away and learned to read, they went to visit family members, they sold -- they hired themselves out so they'd be purchased. so there's always been this encouragement by the left to repeat what the slave owners did , to help people in need to define freedom because freedom

from responsibility as opposed to freedom with responsibility. and that's what the black community is being duped into believing that bourgeois values of personal responsibility and self-denial and sacrifice and hoi callty, all of these are bourgeois racist notions. and so that blacks can remain dependent upon victimhood. and, therefore, they are easily controlled. same thing that happened then that the radical left is trying to do with black america today. lou: and the idea that all of this -- frankly, to me, it's utter and complete nonsense. to others, it may sound like sound marxist tactics to apply. but it's stunning to me9 that

the federal government has accepted this nonsense without critical judgment, without demanding some sort of empirical justification for it. and yet it's sort of a metaphor for what we're watching the left go through now. it's delusion of one kind or another throughout the left, and it's becoming extremely dangerous, in my opinion. your thoughts. >> it's also insinuated into corporations. requests for proposals have stipulations that unless the company can show that they've been through a grievance training that they can't compete in contracts. all sorts of ways that it's almost like a secret police. a suggestion-figure income is -- six-figure income is being paid to blacks to come into public utilities in seattle, washington, where three employees making $125,000 a year

sort of like the police in values to root out people who don't subscribe to black lives matter or the critical race theory. so it's really become very insidious throughout our culture, and we must push back from it because the most vulnerable people are the ones that have most to lose in this situation, lou. lou: and the role of corporate america in all of this is interesting too, because there are h.r. departments that buy into it, and when they do, so does the corporation. we are looking at companies like nike, public companies who are driving messages and playing the role of sometimes provocateur as well as activist with their insistence on, quote-unquote, social justice without definition but with clear, clear implication, if you will. and it's deeply troubling.

>> it really is. lou: the nba say they're going to -- i'm sorry. go ahead, bob. >> no, but when you ask these, when you ask these social justice warriors like the nba players, they're talking they're doing this to9 root out systemic racism, and you ask them, well, give me an example of systemic racism and tell me how the application of that cure will help inner cities or children who are being shot to death by other blacks. tell me how investment in race grievance training has the consequence of improving life for the least of these? and that's what's insidious. the more money and resources are directed to race grievance training and away from community-based solutions that addresses the enemy within these communities, the more we will continue to decline. and that's why those of us

that -- lou: bob, we're going to continue here in just a moment right after these quick commercial messages. enjoy the commercials, stay with us, we'll be right back. more with bob woodson. ♪ limu emu & doug you know limu, after all these years it's the ones that got away that haunt me the most.

♪ ♪ lou: we're back with bob woodson and one of the, one of the many strange things that we are seeing at work with black lives matter, antifa and all of the street violence is we're seeing district attorneys, particularly in california, in oregon, in pennsylvania and philadelphia in particular who are saying we shouldn't be prosecuting looters without considering and assessing the needs of the looters. that's, that is extraordinary. and, frankly, i think, unprecedented in this country. but that is animating many of

these prosecutors. your thoughts about that. >> well, i think that's an extension of the critical race theory. and that is anytime that there's a disparity between blacks and whites, then it has to be systemic and, therefore, the response has to be to change and alterer or the standards -- and alterer the standards. because to say to black americanss or anyone that they consider marginalized that they must alter their standards is just racist. in philadelphia the liberal department d.a. there has criminalized shoplifting. so shoplifters are walking in and out of stores holding up the goods and saying i can't be prosecuted. and i think this is all an extension of this whole race critical theory that somehow any disparity with blacks exempts them from any responsibility. and, lou, nothing is more

injurious to a people than to convey the notion that they are exempt from personal responsibility. and what i'm most concerned about is there had been an outbreak of attacks by young blacks on whites, elderly white people n. tulsa, oklahoma, a young man beat and raped a 90-year-old woman and beat up her husband. he served -- they were married for 65 years, and he served in the second world war. now, if he had shot this young man, he would be subject to front-page news. the very fact that he was black and beat and raped and killed this old white woman and beat up her husband is not news. and so that's why i think that critical race theory and the way that we are approaching it,

we're in a very dangerous place, and that's why dr. king says that moral consistency and redemption is what defines america. and that's what we're doing at the woodson center to try to hold up because we represent low income people who are the ones who are suffering the consequence of this moral inconsistency. and we're working to do everything we can to change it and restore america to what it can be. lou: yeah. it's no surprise that none of, that none of the, well, better known african-american community leaders when it be jesse jackson, whomever we could go through, al sharpton, that they don't stand up because this is, as you say, it's the insidiousness of lower standards. it's condescension, which is one

of the ugliest forms of racism that could be constructed, yet it is precisely what these district attorneys are attempting to practice. they're doing so with the support of, obviously, antifa, black lives matter and other left-wing groups. it is, it is a rising phenomenon that has very ugly e potential, as you say. you get the last word here, bob. >> well, again, as i have said over the centuries black america's leadership used to come together, debate and define how black america should confront the future. and this is true of the 1960s with the black muslims, republic of new africa civil rights movement. today there is no critical black leadership debating the course of black america's future. they have been pawns of the

radical white left, and they just do what they are told. there is no black leadership giving moral direction to the people the way king did, the way bayard rustin, the way roy wilkens dud. we don't have those voices today. lou: right. well, bob woodson, we're thankful for your voice. we appreciate it. and we know that the audience does. and if you'd like to donate to the woodson center and its important work, please go to wood center.org. that's wood center.org. up next, the.

which we recommend to our audience highly. let's start with the prospect of this war ending at some point, because this president is the only one who's been cleared by the fbi in the first 11 months of investigation, cleared by a special counsel, exonerated through it all, cleared then in a subsequent sham impeachment inquiry. there should be right now revision on the part of all americans at the party of hate and its insistence on attacking this president daily. it's outrageous, it defies any kind of logic, reason or decency. your thoughts. >> well, lou, i don't think there's any evidence it's going to end anytime soon. you know, the framing for this book, in december of 2019 democrats in the house were racing to impeach president trump, and a reporter asked

nancy pelosi, said what's the hurry? and she says there's no hurry. this has been going on for two and a half years, since the beginning of the mueller invest. investigation. and at that point, a lot of republicans took notice. they said she has finally admitted it. this is not about ukraine, it's not about a phone call. it's a continuation of the long effort to remove president trump from office, and that's what this book is about. and i have to say if the president is reelected, you have to think this will continue perhaps with other means. lou: well, we've already got schiff saying that he's got another whistleblower. they're not even inventive. >> yeah. lou: they're not even origin. original. and they sure as hell aren't honest. so why -- what should the president do to shut down these fools? what should the american people do? because whether the democrats, they seem to, you know, radical dems certainly enjoy this.

they have rationalized their evil conduct to the point where it is both predictable and constant. but this has to stop and it has to stop soon. do you think -- >> well, you know -- lou: -- it rests with william barr and john durham? >> well, we could learn more about the durham investigation, but we already know on the a major charge that was leveled against the president,s that is, that he conspire pd or colluded with russia to fix the 2016 election, he's been proven right on this. and in this book, i talk about when robert mueller is first appointed, president trump actually tries to get along with him and comes up with a deal that you might call radical cooperation. just offers to give mueller everything, allow him to interview all sorts of white house officials without the president claiming executive

privilege -- lou: right. >> -- handing over thousands of documents. and in return, he wanted -- lou: over a million. >> -- quickly. and the lawyers shook hands on it. and then what they could see, what trump could see was mueller was searching for collusion in the those first months. he was interviewing everybody he could find. he couldn't find it. by the end of 2017, it was clear he a had not found collusion. trump wanted him to close up shop, and instead he moved over in a search for obstruction and let the investigation go for more than a year longer. lou: well, and let's say that our either skepticism or cynicism about what durham will produce, what william barr will produce before this election, the more than people have a right -- the american people have a right to know what's going on. do you think at that point if it

looks like we're not going to know going into that election, the american people aren't going to know about the origins of obamagate? we were promised that by the republicans in the senate, particularly lindsey graham. we were promised that by, certainly, william barr and his investigation at the justice department. but if it's not delivered, we could see another election stolen by the left. the dems are the party of hate. they did it in 2018 under the ruse of this russia collusion nonsense. we know after almost, well, four years fully of investigations by the deep state and the radical dems this president is the only one in washington that is certified to be exonerated of all of those claims. why would he not just simply turn over all of the documents relating to obamagate, declassify them and move them out in front of the american

people and let us judge what the justice department and the fbi and our intelligence agencies have tried to hide successfully for four years? >> i'm totally in favor of that. well, on lindsey graham, look, a lot of republicans say that you might be disappointed with him, that sometimes he's a lot of talk. but the durham investigation is a much more serious matter, and i think there's two things to think about that. one, will as a result of the durham investigation we learn a lot more about what happened with the intelligence agencies and law enforcement targeting the president as he entered office. on the other hand, i think some people want some scalps. they want people to be indicted -- lou: i don't want a scalp, i want justice. i want people to be held accountable. i don't want a scalp. i want people held accountable

for the crime against this government, this country and this president. and, by god, if these prosecutors at the justice department are so crooked, are so sold on the idea that they can't make a ripple in the swamp, then to tell with them. and i think the president has a responsibility, a moral responsibility as well as the leader of this nation to put those documents in front of the american people and let the chips fall where they may. because if we can't hold these people accountable with our justice department, our fbi, our intelligence agencies, they're working against our government or the national interests. the tell with them, byron. it's not a scalp i i want, it's justice. >> well, we do need, we need to know what's going on. i'll tell you in this book there were several times in 2018 when some media outlets -- not this one -- got very excited about collusion and said that mueller

had inched closer to collusion and that he had the goods on collusion. and if you, what i discovered looking behind the scenes what was going on, that was dead. i mean, collusion was dead, they really weren't looking forward any more -- lou: it was a lie! it was a i lie, byron, we can say that. >> -- because they didn't know what was going on. lou: i, i respect your point of view on all things. i have to say to you that a left-wing national media, the radical dems, the party of hate, the deep state knew exactly what was going on because they were the ones who were working to upend this president -- presidency and to dow this president. that's what their efforts were, their goals, their intent and every action they took for four years. the national left-wing media is abysmal and has much to account for itself.
