said the president of the united states. thanks for being with us tomorrow evening. vice president mike pence, our special guest tomorrow. a reminder to follow me own twitter at lou dobbs. thanks for being with us. good night from sussex. elizabeth: president trump on the move at this hour. you are looking at a live picture. he is holding a rally in dayton, ohio, before heading to another rally in swanson, ohio. we'll bring you the latest details. fox news contributor byron york on the fight to replace ruth bader ginsburg on the court and her legacy. senator chuck schumer, saying republicans have no right now to fill the scotus vacancy as democrats say they have every right to threaten impeachment, shut down the government, attack the court and protest as president trump says he will name his nominee by the weekend. he talked to a few of them.

this raises questions is this about payback for democrats still angry over republicans not voting on obama's pick merrick garland. democrats chuck schumer are backtracking saying no to the vote in election year, when they said do that, vote for one in 2016. also this story, florida attorney general ashley moody on the trump administration now labeling three u.s. cities as quote, anarchist jurisdictions for not stopping violence. also as democrats now warn the biden campaign is alienating big democrat voting blocks. ashley moody. david webb on a new push in the nation's capitol for republicans to pass new legislation make rioters pay for their destruction, make them accountable. former independent counsel ken starr on newly-released government documents and emails obtained by the "judicial watch" that the obama administration was a whole lot more worried and

concerned than previously realized we joe and hunter biden's alleged pay-to-play interests. border patrol council president, brandon judd on this new fight to secure the border. attorney general william barr, first daughter ivanka trump barnstorming to talk to you about a new problem with trafficking. 90 children have been found and rescued in the last month or so. brandon judd joins us tonight. thank you for joining us. i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪. elizabeth: thanks for joining us. you're watching the fox business network. ruth bader ginsburg will lie in state at the u.s. capitol and in repose at the supreme court later this week. thousands are expected to come

to washington to pay their respects to an icon who fought for equal protection for all under the law. justice who changed american society. let's welcome the "washington examiner" chief political correspondent byron york. your thoughts on her legacy here, byron? >> well, she is obviously has a legacy of one of the most liberal and activist and celebrated members of the supreme court in a generation. which makes this moment so extraordinary. a lot of republicans, it takes a little while for things to sink in. they were shocked when the news came out friday evening. i think a lot of republicans in washington said, wait a minute, we control the white house. we control the senate. a seat has opened on the supreme court that just happens to have been held by one of the most liberal members of the court. we could replace that justice with a conservative justice. we would be crazy not to do it.

and i think a lot of republicans are thinking that way this evening. elizabeth: okay. president trump said he will name his nominee by the weekend. tells the senate to vote without delay. says he has spoken to a few names on the short list. we're talking about building a conservative majority on the court for a generation. let's show the names on the short list right now as we also talk about protesters showing up at senate majority leader mitch mcconnell's home in kentucky. senator lindsey graham's home in washington. here is what is happening right now, byron. democrats are outraged after republicans stalled the vote on obama's nominee merrick garland. pelosi threatens impeachment of trump and a.g. barr. eric holder says pack the court if bidens wins. others say shut down the government, others threatening street riots. your reaction to that? >> there has been some crazy stuff coming out of the left right now.

the nancy pelosi impeachment thing is really hard to understand. basically xi was asked would you take impeachment off the table as a way of delaying a senate decision of a trump supreme court nominee? she said no, no, it is on the table. really makes no sense. we learned during the impeachment battle that the house controls impeaching the president and then the senate controls the trial. the house really doesn't have any clout in what the senate does. so i think that really makes, doesn't make a lot of sense this idea of packing the court has actually been around in democratic circles for quite a while. in the last primary race a lot of the democrats didn't show much enthusiasm but pete buttigieg, who did well in the race, actually explored interest in expanding the size of the supreme court to give it a democratic majority. also, you're hearing about if there is a democratic senate, if

there is a majority of democrats in the senate, they will first get rid of the filibuster. once they do that, if there is a democratic president who will sign their bills, they can make puerto rico a state. they can make the district of columbia a state. they can expand the size of the supreme court. they can do all sorts of things if they win the majority and get rid of filibuster. elizabeth: okay. what is interesting too, barack obama, joe biden, chuck schumer, say don't vote now in an election year on a scotus nominee but four years ago in 2016 ruth bader ginsburg, obama, biden, schumer said yeah in 2016 we should do a vote. listen to obama and biden here. watch this. >> when there is a vacancy on the supreme court the president much the united states is to nominate someone. historically this has not been viewed as a question.

there's no unwritten law that says that it can only be done on off years. that is not in the constitutional text. >> i would go forward with the confirmmation process as chairman, even a few months before presidential election. elizabeth: okay. nominations in an election year have occurred 29 times in history. here's the thing. if this vote if this election is contested, you can't have a deadlocked supreme court at 4-4, just eight votes. the supreme court may well have to weigh in on a disputed election. you talk about the filibuster, dems have no power to stop the scotus hearings because they abolished the filibuster for scotus in nations in 2013. president only need a simple majority of votes. we have only collins and murkowski peeling off now.

what is the prediction president will seat a scotus nominee before the end of the year? >> i think there is a pretty good chance of it. senator mcconnell said today there would be a vote this year. but that doesn't say whether he would hold a vote before the election or after the election. and as far as there being a 4-4 deadlock on the supreme court, a lot of democrats point out that there was a 4-4 deadlock during the last election. remember antonin scalia died unexpectedly in early 2016. mitch mcconnell kept the seat open the whole year. there was during the election months it was open. the only thing i would say there is that nobody in the washington power structure expected donald trump to win. now there is, especially voting by mail, there is a lot of predictions of delays and chaos and uncertainty after the

election. and if you go back to the bush v. gore days 20 years ago, that was a case focused in one state, florida, it did get to the supreme court and it was decided by 5-4. it is not crazy to be concerned about election litigation and supreme court that only has 8 members on it. elizabeth: yeah. that is well-put. getting back to the democrats threats that they don't, you know, get their way on this, you know, even ruth bader ginsburg said it is wrong to talk about packing the court. she said that in 2016, that basically it is bad for the country. it is partisan. it was wrong when fdr tried to do it. watch democrat rahm emanuel criticize house speaker pelosi, nancy pelosi you're wrong to threaten impeachment. watch this. >> the reason i reject that politics, i understand the speaker i would never under estimate here to look at all of her efforts, all her tools but the idea of talking about

impeachment as somehow retribution, that is corrosive to our political system. somehow we have to one up them. elizabeth: one up them, retribution, corrosive, using weapon of impeachment. your final word, byron? >> on impeachment they have already done it. would they do it twice in the course after year? and on packing the court, the court, the number of judges on the court is not set in the constitution but it has been the same for about 150 years and no one has made a case for expanding it. elizabeth: all right. byron york, always great to have you on. really appreciate it. >> thank you, liz. elizabeth: next up florida attorney general ashley moody on the trump administration really laying down the law, now labeling three u.s. cities, portland, seattle, new york city, as jurisdictions that are anarchist. that they're not stopping

anarchy and violence. is this a move that will threaten their federal funding? democrats are really mad about this but democrats are also warning that the biden campaign you have got to step it up. you're alienating big democratic voting blocks. that is next. we'll say which voting blocks they're alienating. president trump: we'll pick somebody outstanding, all qualified. they're all qualified. somebody that is outstanding. ♪ that haunt me the most.

♪. elizabeth: president trump at rallies in ohio tonight after stops in minnesota on friday, north carolina on saturday. news now coming in the recession is officially over. that is according to wall street analysts in spied of today's selloff, showing sustained economic growth through 2021 and beyond. as the president is pushing hard on safety and violence in u.s. cities. welcome florida attorney general ashley moody back to the show. great to have you back on. your reaction to the justice department labeling new york city, portland. >> great to be here. elizabeth: good to see you again. what was your reaction when the doj labeled seattle, portland, new york city as anarchist jurisdictions for not stopping violence? >> this should surprise no one. as a former prosecutor, a judge, as the attorney general of florida i was shocked that you had leaders, mayors,

commissioners of these cities, not only not support law enforcement but in some circumstances impede their efforts to protect these communities. i'm also the wife of a law enforcement officer and we were saddened to see they basically left these brave men and women who signed up to handle these most dangerous situations on their own. wouldn't even call for help when it's available to protect these communities. so this should surprise no one. it is really twofold. president trump knows that you must have law and order in a true democracy and second, this is smart governance. he is protecting taxpayer money. you can't keep handing over millions of dollars to communities who will let their government buildings and streets and communities get burned down and destroyed. it is common sense governance. elizabeth: yeah. you know what else is happening, in chicago shootings are so bad and so chronic that pole stall

postal workers are threatening not to deliver mail in violent neighborhoods. kamala harris said we have to reimagine policing in america. they are growing really worried that biden doesn't have a ground game in the battleground states and not doing enough to campaign. watch what is going on here. listen to this. >> in arizona there was a lot of head-scratching where is joe biden? i basically, both arizona and nevada, you will find democrats wishing that the ticket were there more often. >> there are a lot of democrats who are nervous at this point who think the biden campaign is not doing enough to energy supporters, get their voters to turn out. >> start with the ground game. it is worse than hillary. at least there was a ground game even though she didn't show up. there were hillary offices in many towns, campaign offices. there was door-to-door campaigns. i get calls every day from people in michigan.

i can't get a yard sign. i contact get a yard sign. there are no real biden people on the ground in that way, the way you would have. and way they tried to kind of slough it off, well, it is the 21st century. we do everything digital now. man, why would you take, why would you use michigan as the experiment after what happened in 2016? >> yeah. painful lesson there. >> when hillary lost michigan by only two votes per precinct, why are you ignoring the black community. biden has only come to michigan once. he only met with, he went to two white towns. one in mccomb county and we call down river detroit. elizabeth: okay. michael moore, the filmmaker just said biden is alienating or not visiting with the black community in michigan. and we have the "new york times" reporting that 60% of hispanics are now in the trump camp. they like when trump's policies

are. 25% are supportive of biden. reaction to that. of the those are two big voting blocks. >> again this should surprise no one. i am meeting meeting with peopl. this past weekend i was at trump events around the state of florida, women for trump, excited about this campaign because they're watching the president's actions and what he is a affirmatively saying he will do as president. you know, if you're from the hispanic community, look no further than venezuela. what was once a prosperous country, in such a short amount of time devolved into corruption and chaos and crime like you would have never seen, violent crime. we have a president in president trump as soon as things break bad he comes out says this will not happen in america. as your president with we will not defund police. we will stand up for law and order. i will send in reinforcements to keep you safe. i can tell you, not just as attorney general but as a mom and talking to mothers across the state of florida, that is

what they want and expect in a president. not a teleprompter president that is going to have to go by talking points when lives are on the line. elizabeth: ashley moody, thanks for joining us. florida attorney general there. good to see you, ashley. come back soon, okay? >> great to be with you. thanks. elizabeth: same here. next up fox news contributor dave webb on the new plans to do street action. this is what the left is now planning, if a conservative is nominated to replace justice ginsburg. and now this, a new push today in the nation's capitol by republicans to pass legislation to make rioters pay for their violence and destruction. that story next. >> not allowed to go to church. you're not allowed to do anything. the only thing you're allowed to do is run wild through the streets, burn down storefronts, blow up stores and kill people because that is considered a protest. in that they allow you to have. i said we can't have a rally. the most we could have is 10

if they had the presidency and the senate which gives its advice and consent if it so chooses they would immediately remove to replace ruth bader ginsburg. i'm not going to get lost in the arguement between what they would do or should do. i want to look at it for what it is. the constitution a form of government, a republican form of government that goes forward under a court that does its job, not as an activist court on any issue. elizabeth: i hear what you're saying, it is an important point you just made. i want to get your reaction to this. republicans jim jordan, debbie lesko, a big push for new legislation to make rioters pay for their destruction, hold them accountable. insure local officials don't turn a blind eye to the chaos. florida governor's ron desantis is pushing hard on new legislation that would do the same, crack down hard on rioters around cities and towns that move to defund the police.

your reaction to these developments? >> it is important. there are remedies in the law. businesses have been destroyed. democrats ignored 2 billion-dollar destruction of businesses in communities in kenosha, wisconsin, don't forget they tried to do the same in lancaster, pennsylvania. they ignored it. some tacitly approved it. some talked about the unlawful behavior should continue. that is not what we want from the elected officials, law and order, peaceful protests. rally outside of the court, it happened throughout our history. do it in a manner that does not lead to destruction of property. it is time that they pay the price because those businesses, they employ everyday americans who no longer could go to work. they were already under stress because of covid-19. now they have lost even more. when you talk about the insurance costs, talk about the security cost toes the cities, to the states, they're going to

make this money up on the backs of the very people whose businesses those rioters have destroyed. elizabeth: now there are two public health crises. it is not just covid-19. it is also the violence and the rioting and the destruction of local businesses, many owned by minorities. okay, so we've been reporting about how by the time the democrat national convention, people were killed in riots but the democrats hardly talked about the violence and rioting at their convention. then you have basically the big push by republicans to crack down. then the biden campaign continues forward. joe biden condemns rioting. nancy pelosi finally condemned rioting last week on the floor of the house. but what we're talking about right now, david, is the difficult strains and themes coming out in the election. you have that on the one hand. then joe biden, look at this, joe biden told a questioner at a recent town hall who asked about his policies like tax hikes, he answered, i will not bore you

with the details about my policies. he also claimed that 200 million people would die of covid-19 by the end of his speech. watch this. >> i won't bore you with the details but, i get your name, we'll send you the material. 200 million people have died, probably by the time i finish this talk. elizabeth: i remember, david, last week joe biden blamed president trump for every covid death. your reaction to all of this? >> joe biden is working off of a prescripted approach. unfortunately when you do that, you have don't always follow the script that is in the teleprompter in front of you. we've seen videos of them giving questions and asking people to follow the script. that didn't work either. as for policies and plans, joe biden doesn't have anything new to offer that he didn't have in the 44 years in the senate or the eight years as vice president. so in truth he has to run on

this vanilla-like campaign where there is not much to it, hope people will be fooled or forget yesterday. you mentioned nancy pelosi acknowledging the violence. you and i talked about that in real time as kenosha was playing out because that's when it came to the heartland of america and now they had to recognize it in biden had to come out of his basement because people are paying the price and now you and i see this. this is the business of america that is being destroyed. new york city is silent, streets are silent all around america. i travel through georgia and south carolina this weekend. they're open for business. they're using precautions. they're finding ways to move forward. that is what we need but biden cannot come up with a solution well, frankly he hasn't had with all the time in washington. >> david, webb, it is always great to have you on, come back soon. >> anytime. elizabeth: sure. before we go to break we wanted to give you an update on a story

we shared with you last week. on friday we reported on allegations that the mayor of nashville and his administration had hidden coronavirus numbers. that was according to our local nashville fox affiliate. they have since retracted their story and we now know the mayor's office did not conceal those numbers and did release them to the public. okay, next up, former independent counsel ken starr on newly-released government documents and emails obtained by "judicial watch" that shows the obama administration was a whole lot more concerned and worried than anybody previously realized about the bidens alleged pay-to-play in ukraine. that story next. president trump: look, biden and his son are stone cold crooked. you know it. his son walks out with millions of dollars.

"judicial watch" got them. they show the obama administration's state department was more worried about joe and hunter biden's alleged pay-to-play conflicts of interest than previously realized. we'll show you a email from george kent, top obama administration official in charge of ukraine. he copied obama's u.n. ambassador to ukraine, maria yovanovitch. the media was mocking, trolling joe biden over his son's business saying the gift that keeps on giving. that is george kent saying that. the russian, ukraine media that russia supports was basically saying that, you know, is

joe biden coming back here on his sixth visit out of seven years, six times he visited them to advance his own interests, to protect his son's business dealings in ukraine? here is the question, does this show the russians were using biden's conflicts to undermine the u.s. and ukraine? this is ukraine media that russia supports in ukraine, making fun of the bidens here. >> yes, it sure looks that way, liz. i was distressed, i wasn't surprised but i was distressed to see this email and it was really a cry of the heart from george kent, a career civil servant as you said, a high-ranking state department official in washington, d.c. who really did have cognizance over ukraine, the ambassador of the united states, reported to him. here he says, burisma, again, the gift, obviously tongue-in-cheek, the gift that just keeps giving. why is the vice president of the

united states here essentially three days before the inauguration of the new administration? and so there was this very deep concern that this overwaning interest not just in ukraine, very important country, but specific arrangements who would serve as prosecutor general, doing what? investigating corruption. everybody is against corruption but burisma was part of that narrative and here is hunter biden receiving enormous amounts of money from essentially a corrupt company under investigation. and so george kent, final point, george kent, a career guy, not a political guy, has said earlier, there is a certainly a perception after conflict of interest and he warned the vice president's office about that. elizabeth: yeah. he testified to that during the impeachment proceedings. so this is again about the allegation is that hunter biden,

according to one critic tagging along with his father joe biden around the world to, china, to russia, to ukraine pursuing his own personal business dealings. former dni ric grenell he said state department officials and appalled at what the bidens were doing here, using emba is is and more to advance hunter biden's interests here. not just hunter biden but hunter biden's brothers are alleged to have been involved cashing in onen name. your reaction to that? >> this was a family enterprise and this is terrible. when you go back in time how president johnson used his resources and influence, especially in the united states senate to make a vast fortune for his family. it is absolutely appalling and then here we see the photographs of hunter biden, members of the biden family, getting off the

air force two in these major capitals, especially beijing, now of course the more we know about the ukrainian connection, it is absolutely, if not actual corruption, it certainly the appearance of corruption. using one's office to help one's own family do what? enrich themselves. especially with hunter and burisma, liz, we all know, we have been through this, hunter biden was simply unqualified, not just underqualified, to serve on that board and what was it a board of? a corrupt company. and the press reporting generally has been speaking of appalling, appallingly silent with respect to something that should go to the fundamentals of government. we need honest government. we need integrity in government. this certainly lacks, certainly the appearance of inintegrity. elizabeth: you wrote an opinion piece about, i want to switch

gears, i want to move on to ruth bader ginsburg. you wrote an opinion piece about ruth bader ginsburg. would you like to talk about that? >> oh, i would love to because i had the privilege of serving alongside then judge ginsburg, of course famously justice ginsburg who served on the federal bench in total for 40 years. and we all know about her career. you can agree or disagree with her jurisprudence. what i did in my op-ed piece today in the "wall street journal" was really to pay tribute to her as a person. the person who we knew day in and day out. this is so important for america now. she could disagree with someone and she did, without being disagreeable. she could be so civil around kind, thoughtful and gracious. she really is a great example to what everyone in washington should aspire to, which is civil discourse. have your disagreement. but nonetheless, do so in a civil and responsible way.

sanctioning -- great to see you again. the white house, administration sanctioning more than two dozen people and entities involved in iran's nuclear arms program. your reaction? they were thought to be working with north korea on a long-range missile. what is your reaction to that? >> this is the big headline on the reimposition of sanctions, particularly the arms sanctions, so-called snapback that the u.s. is doing i don't think has gotten enough attention. this is not just we're going back to the u.n. sanctions regime before the iran deal. the way united states has written they're more flexible and much more broad-based. they can't say, oh, you did an arms deal, we will sanction you. they can sanction people talking about an arms deal. anybody supporting them they can sanction them. this will allow the u.s. to be much more aggressive, heavy-handed, go more quickly people trying to find work

arounds. this will put iranians in terms of an arms embargo in a worse place than they were before they signed the arms deal. elizabeth: that is interesting. the u.s. arms embargo with iran expires next mon month. you're saying this is flexible and smarter one, that what you're saying? >> it is not only broader and more aggressive in sanctions the way the u.s. plans to implement it, the reality, everybody will follow. russians and chinese can complain. people can dismiss them. people can whine they are illegitimate. reality no legitimate company will risk doing business with the iranians because of all the pain. iran doesn't have enough money to make it worthwhile. what will happen there will be shadowy runarounds and u.s. will track them down. these will be effective, probably more effective than the ones that were on the table the

first time. elizabeth: colonel, president trump is expected to sharply criticize iran when he addresses the united nations assembly this week. we had former obama official john kerry, we showed a clip of john kerry in 2016 saying there will never be a mid-east peace deal with any arab country and ine israel. that was proven to be wrong. john kerry, tim kaine, susan rice really pushed back hard saving there will be chaos and catastrophe if you do things like move the u.s. embassy in israel to jerusalem. if you do that airstrike against, the drone strike against soleimani, the former general basically taken out by the trump administration. the democrats have said that the president's policies will lead to chaos and apocalypse. that was one quote in the mid-east. that hasn't happened. instead we have peace deals between the u.a.e., bahrain and israel which the democrats said would never happen. what is your take the democrats

are pushing back hard on the u.n. address, the president as you address. >> the democrats were double stupid. they believed this mess nothing could happen in the region unless iran and palestine had a deal. that was always wrong. they were waiting for someone to challenge that premise. that is how they were wrong. the second way they were wrong is, we are not in the world, even, six, seven, eight years ago with obama, we're in world of great power competition. what matters is what is china doing, russia doing, iran, both of them. so the region wants to be protected against these powers and want to be at peace. they see the united states stepping forward as the only logical power for that. elizabeth: interesting. thanks for joining us, colonel. thanks so much for your service to our country. great to have you back on. coming up national border

♪. elizabeth: let's welcome back to the show national border patrol council president brandon judd. always great to have you on, brandon. first your reaction to the story of the canadian national suspected of having mailed an envelope containing the deadly poison ricin to the white house. she was arrested as she was trying to cross the border from canada into buffalo. border officials detained the woman. she had a firearm on her. your reaction to this story? >> besides the obvious aspect

that this individual tried to murder our president, there are two very important pieces to this story. we have to have border security, whether that is on our coastal borders. whether on the southwest border with mexico or the canadian border, we have to have border security. there are criminals that will enter our country illegally through all of these different means. we have to have that secure everywhere. the other aspect is, this person was deported because of violent crimes she committed in texas. had she have been in a sanctuary city, had she had been arrested by the police in sanctuary cities. she would never be deported and still be in this country illegally. we again, going after criminal aliens that are in our country, whether be in sanctuary cities or anywhere else, we have to secure our borders, we have to take care of the american public. elizabeth: let's move on to this story. your thoughts, brandon on attorney general william barr, with the first daughter ivanka

traveling to the georgia. the administration announced a one hundred million dollar grant to help fighting human trafficking. this is the biggest federal grant of this kind. your take on this story? >> i'm personally grateful they're going after human trafficking. i see the human suffering on the southwest bored all the time. when people put their hands, put themselves into the hands of these criminal cartels they get raped, abused, they get stolen, they get kidnapped. all the things happen because of liberal policies and not wanting to enforce the rule of law to keep all people safe, that includes americans and those that are not inside of the united states. we have to go after these cartels and we have to issue issue with liberal policies that allow these cartels to operate. elizabeth: a truly remarkable story, the stunning akeefement. your reaction to homeland securities u.s. marshals, good guys breaking up criminal gangs. they have found nearly 90

missing children, missing children who were rescued. they found them in oklahoma, indiana, ohio, in georgia. so these are kids that have been abused, neglected. some involved in human trafficking a big push by the trump administration to find and rescue missing children. what an achievement. your reaction? >> two thumbs up for the good guys. we're always trying to -- when the handcuffs are taken off of the good guys and we're allowed to go after these criminals, we will be able to solve crimes. we will be able to protect the innocent. obviously children are the most innocent and they're the most vulnerable but when those handcuffs are taken off, the trump administration has taken the handcuffs off of law enforcement we're able to make a big difference in the lives of those who need, who need a difference made. elizabeth: brandon, can you explain how the handcuffs were put on the good guys here? we're trying to do the right thing like rescue missing children, who put the handcuffs

on and what were the handcuffs? >> well, for the most part it is called prosecutorial discretion. the obama administration under joe biden, with joe biden as vice president would do, said we couldn't do certain things because we didn't have the resources to prosecute these individuals or we didn't have the resources to go after certain individuals. the trump administration has clearly shown that that's not the case. the trump administration is allowing us to do the jobs that law enforcement is supposed to be doing so that again, we can protect the american public. i personally know how much president trump cares about the american public. everybody says he has law epforcement's back. no, he actually has the american public's back, which is why law enforcement has his back. we want to protect individuals and the sanctity of life and president trump is doing the exact same thing. elizabeth: okay. brandon judd, thank you so much for joining us. thank you for your service to our country. good to have you back on.
