9:03 pm
children: this is the best feel-good story in a generation. the good guys winning. it's a major story. but guess who's staying silent? thanks for joining us. i'm elizabeth macdonald, "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪ ♪ elizabeth: welcome to the show, esyou're watching the fox busins network. let's bring back to the show congressman tom mcclintock. first, tom, i'd like you to listen to justice amy coney barrett speaking last night. let's take a listen to this. >> thank you all for being here tonight, and thank you, president trump, for selecting me to serve as an associate justice of the united states supreme court. it's a privilege to be asked to serve my country in this office, and i stand here tonight truly honored and humbled. thanks also to the senate for giving its consent to my
9:04 pm
appointment. i am grateful for the confidence you have expressed in me, and i pledge to you and to the american people that i will discharge my duties to the very best of my ability. elizabeth: okay. congressman, that was an historic moment. what exactly are the democrats iow threatening to do in retaliation? what exactly are the consequences republicans now face? we keep hearing that from senators kamala harris, chuck schumer and richard bloomennal. >> actually, we've been hearing that for several years, packing the supreme court with additional seats of their choosing. that would totally destroy the mechanism that provides stability to our process of government. the credibility of the supreme court stems from the fact that its members are lifetime appointments, but they span many, many different administrations. however the political winds may shift from election to election,
9:05 pm
there is a stability to the typreme court. if each party begins adding seats every time they take power, the court loses that credibility, and we lose the stability that the court provides. elizabeth: all right. we've got senator john thune saying we are, this is what republicans were elected to do, restore the supreme court to its constitutional purpose, not its legislative purpose. but now we've got even house speaker nancy pelosi talking about packing the court along withal sherrod brown and senator ed markey. and then we have this, sir, senator chris coons basically saying that they should re-examine hundreds of conservative judges now seated, that there should be a wide open conversation on rebalancing, on the rebalancing of all the courts, that these hundreds of conservative judges should not be allowed to sit peaceably without re-examining the process
9:06 pm
how they got there. how's that going to happen? >> that's a radically different view than that of the american thfounders. as was just reflected in justice barrett's remarks, they viewed the court as a constitutional referee, not as a policy-making branch. that's the legislature, answerable directly to the people. the court has a very different function. what the left is trying to do is turn the court into a policy-making branch of government. that's why yount see this tremendous conflicts between the leftist and traditional liberals and conservatives who defend the integrity of the court. and by the way, justice ruth bader ginsburg was one of those liberals who said it would be a very badded idea to start packing the court because it would turn it into a political instrument rather than the neutral referee it was designed toed be. we're used to seeing justice depicted blindfolded because it's supposed to be impartial. there's one defiction --
9:07 pm
depiction of justice wide open, and that is when she is looking to the constitution. the left would turn that completely. they'd make the justice blind to the constitution and partial to a policy outcome that the liberals like, or the left likes. elizabeth: yeah. and also joe biden at one point said that it would be a massive power mongering and corruption to try to pack the court. they're angry, they're still angry that justice barrett was seated on a strict party-line vote. we haven't seenpa that in 150 years, since reconstruction. let's listen to senator chuck schumer saying this is a dark dayck for america. watch this. >> my deepest, greatest and most abiding sadness tonight is for the american people and what this nomination will mean for their lives, their freedoms, their fundamental rights. monday, october 26th, 2020, it
9:08 pm
will go down as one of the darkest days in the 231-year history of the united states senate. elizabeth: okay. now we've got this, watch this action. democrats now say justice barrett is now a swing vote that could decide the 2020 election. and we've got the bellwether county, luzerne county in pennsylvania, is asking justice barrett to recuse herself from a controversial case e on whether to give it an extension for countyof mail-in ballots after election day. your take on this. >> justices are not there to produce a desired outcome for either side. they've there to apply the law impartially. conservative justices tend to do that, that's why they're often disappointed when a conservative justice ends up with a decision that favors a liberal policy. it's because they're not, they're not deciding it on the
9:09 pm
policy, they're deciding it on the law. the left is trying to fundamentally change this concept of the rule of law to the rule of mobs. and that's a very dangerous thing. they are not there for, to produce a desired policy outcome. they are there to apply the law impartial ily. elizabeth: you know, we've got the supreme court angering the democrat party yesterday with. they've ruled against, the supreme court ruled against wisconsin democrats. it's a battleground state. now it cannot count mail-in ballots received up to six days after the election. your final world. >> don't forget, they issued a different opinion involving different facts in the pennsylvania case. that's where you were applying the law as it is written, not as you wish it to be. if you wish it to be in law, you need to join the legislature and resign from the supreme court. elizabeth: we've got a bunch of upcoming supreme court cases that justice barrett will weigh
9:10 pm
in on, a ballot tension, a case -- extension, a case about the president's taxes. you know, democrats also want to get at the grand jury probe materials in the mueller probe. so, you know, there's a lot of cases that are going to be really scrutinized hard. how do you think this is all going the play out? final word. >> i think because there's now a majority on the court that is dedicated to applying the law as it is written, you're going to have decisions favoring both conservative and liberal policy outcomes. but they will be according to the law under our constitution. that's as it should be. elizabeth: okay. thank you, congressman mcclintock. we really appreciate it. >> thanks. elizabeth: coming up, this is a arock and roll night for us he. we've got former deputy independent counsel paul wisen berg. we are waiting on more bombshells coming tonight in the hunter e biden e-mail
9:11 pm
controversy, audiotapes with reportedly the bidens on tucker carlson tonight. we're going to show you a preview of that coming up right there. >> he's actually fighting, i think, for hunter. for the family. biden and his cronies, what they've done is a disgrace. and, frankly, what the media has done is more of a disgrace. ♪ ♪ d you know you can go to libertymutual.com to customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need? really? i didn't-- aah! ok. i'm on vibrate. aaah! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ noand if you're troubledan a lifby falls and bleeds,ers. worry follows you everywhere.

9:15 pm
elizabeth: okay. let's welcome back to the show former deputy independent counsel paul wisenberg. hunter biden's former business partner, whistleblower tony bobulinski, he's about to reveal new allegations, release new audiotape recordings about the bidens' business dealings tonight on tucker carlson's show. what are you expecting? >> well, or i'm expecting more embarrassing things. there's a lesson here, don't screw your partner, particularly if he has dirt on you. it looks like what happened here, first of all, this is an influence-peddling operation. hunter and his colleagues were selling access, and they were selling it through use of the biden name. that's not always illegal, it
9:16 pm
can certainly easily become illegal, it depends on the circumstances. and remember, most of what we've seen involves hunter and not the former vice president. but the lesson here is it's very clear this guy wanted to put up guardrails, bobulinski, is that how you pronounce it? and wanted to put up guardrails in the operation. elizabeth: yes. >> and for whatever reason, either reasons of ethics or because he wassing being careful and hunter was chasing at this, basically, they cut a separate deal that he didn't know anything about. guess what? it's coming back to bite them in the behind in a major way. elizabeth: so joe biden has insisted he and his son hunter never discussed business, but tony bobulinski says that's not true. let's listen to a preview of what may happen tonight. watch this. >> the former vice president has said he had no knowledge whatsoever of his son's business dealings and was not involved in
9:17 pm
them at all, but this sounds like direct involvement in them. >> yes. that's a play e about the lie. when he states that, that is a blatant lie. obviously, the world's aware that i attended the debate last thursday, and in that he made a specific statement around questions around this9 from the president. and i'll be honest with you, i almost stood up and screamed lie car and walked out because i was shocked that after four days or five days that they prepped for this that the biden family is taking that position to the world. elizabeth: okay. i shouldn't have said may happen, this is what's coming tonight. he says he did meet with joe biden about china -- the business deal with china. the media suppressed the story the, but it's real and it matters. voters have a right to know the details. he's saying he provided his phones and documents to senate homeland security and the fbi. voters have a right to know, don't yo think? >> i do. what actually went on with this
9:18 pm
arrangement, how bad was it, how much did it involve joe biden. the fact that he had a meeting, that bobulinski had a meeting with joe biden in and of itself may not be significant. but, again, that's one story. what happened here, and the second story is the suppression by the mainstream media or most of the mainstream media about, about reporting it. so the other problem is, as you've pointed out and as he's pointed out, when joe biden is asked about this, he makes these, you know, very strong declaratory statements that it's a complete lie, i never spoke to my son about his business, his business ventures or my son, he even said during the primary my son never did anything wrong with. we only, we all understand fatherly loyalty, but you get into problems when you make these absolutist statements like that. now, whether or not it affects the election, i don't know. nobody ever mistook joe, joe
9:19 pm
biden for pair cleese of athens. -- pare cleese of athens. so whether or not it'll mean anything anybody's guess. elizabeth: biden says this is a smear, russian disinformation, but the senate republican report relied on treasury documents, you know, to track the payments going on in countries like china, crew crane and russia -- ukraine and russia. and the biden campaign is not denying hunter biden's laptop or mr. bobulinski's details. the fbi and the doj concurs with the dni there's no evidence this is russian disinformation. so when we look at the details and based on the senate gop report and lieutenant bobulinski's e-mails, we're laying out a narrative here about how this all went down. and what looks like they keep talking about is the value added to the deal of the biden family name and cha -- that chinese
9:20 pm
intelligence were well aware of that. we're also tracking an awful lot of hl, cs and -- hlcs and shell companies. your final world on that. >> well, again, it's not illegal per se to use hlcs, but -- ll crz, but they are very often used the hide money flows in money landerring operations. so it's certainly he jutte mate to ask these questions. and why doesn't cnn and msnbc ask the bidens, is this a valid e-mail or not? what about this e-mail? what about this recording? what about this recording where somebody asked 10% for the big guy? you know, all it is is a question that's asked in an e-mail. are they talking about you? what do you know about it, mr. vice president? did you meet with this person? and he's just, he's dodging that. he's being a politician. again, whether it makes any difference, i don't know. elizabeth: yeah. >> a lot of this goes on in
9:21 pm
washington, so it is what it is. elizabeth: yeah. biden, we see -- we're tracking this and looking through government footnotes and documents. the biden family likes to do a lot of real estate and infrastructure deals. that was bobulinski and hunter biden's deal with the chinese conglomerate in 2017. and that, the guy who ran cesc, that chinese conglomerate, is now missing. an ngo connected was accused of doing money laundering, you know, it was connected to the chinese military until it went bankrupt. again, the senate report is tracking u.s. banks flagging suspicious financial transactions between hunter biden's firms and russian and chinese nationals including a businessman with extensive ties to the can chinese communist party who's now missing. your final word on that, and never we've got to go. >> again, why isn't the press asking these questions? it's really sad.
9:22 pm
elizabeth: all right. sol, it's great to see you. come back soon, okay? we're going to stay on this story with you. >> thanks a lot. elizabeth: next up, ken starr, former independent counsel, on this story: republican senators now joining house republicans saying, yes, attorney general william barr, you should appoint the special counsel to get to the bottom of this story of the biden family selling access to joe biden's name. we're going to do a deep orer dive into what a special counsel would be up against, complicated transactions of biden's views of -- money flows are about as transparent as a bucket of molasses. that story next. ♪ ♪ i can't believe it.

♪ muck. h:izabeth: let's welcome back former independent counsel ken starr. ken, it's always good to see you back with us. >> thank you, liz. elizabeth: here's the question: what could a special courage do with the biden pay-to-play conflicts of interest selling infliens allegations? we've got republican senators like senator ron johnson and john cornyn saying, yeah, ag barr should appoint the special counsel. what could thatt special counsel do? >> a special counsel can use a grand jury and use it
9:27 pm
immediately. it's a very powerful tool the get at the truth. the grand jury can issue subpoenas. if they're not obeyed, the court has contempt powers to enforce the subpoenas, and it's a rather smooth and effective process. there might be some litigation along the way, but it is a very, very powerful weapon that the special counsel has. elizabeth: we're seeing really complex transactions that the biden family were engaged in. this has been the senate gop report, we find it in lieutenant tony bobulinski e-mails and text messages. would it be easy or difficult to find pay-to-play influence peddling in real estate deals and llcs and shell companies? >> it's not likely to be easy, but this isom still not rocket science. the fbi, and i know the fbi's a had us issues, but the fbi is filled with people of greating integrity and ability. there are financial analysts,
9:28 pm
they are really terrific, very sharp. they're very good at talking these kinds of things apart, unpeeling the onion and getting to the truth. frequently, they're helped by the irk rs and perhaps even -- irs and perhaps even other investigative agencies. sain, once again, the special counsel brings all those tools to t bear. it is, again, a way of getting at the truth. complicated, yes. impossible to understand, no. elizabeth: okay. so we're tracking 16 llcs and shell companies. i mean, you wonder if the panama papers are picking this up. [laughter] there are so many afill kuwaited with one family. and we understand if you're in washington for nearly five decades and you come out of delaware, that's the stomping ground for hlcs and shell companies, we get that. this involved infrastructure deals, real estate deals in places like romaine that, iraq. even new york city. jim biden recommended they approach governor andrew cuomo.
9:29 pm
he was going to cede $4 million suspended on major infrastructure projects like fixing laguardia. they were going to name drop names like senator kamala lirris, carlos slim, the mexican billionaire, the richest man in the world, and then hunter biden steps in andps says, wait a second, we don't want them in on the deal, they could get a cut of it, we want this for ourselves. reey were talking about name-dropping the presidents of colombia and the e.u. we see these shells being used for the $3.5 million coming from accounts controlled by hunter from the wife of the former moscow, shells being used to house money coming in to pawow off for a car for hunter biden's business partner, allegedly deafen archer, from a kazakh oligarch and more. it could be the simple low hanging fruit that the special counsel could to go after, right? >> oh, absolutely. youu just follow the money trai. you follow the evidence. but here is where a bobulinski
9:30 pm
who seems to have credibility can help. cutting through all of the corporate formalities, an eyewitness participant who turns, as it were, government evidence -- and he may be complete lu innocent of any wrongdoing whatsoever. but the witness can take you through the documents, take you through the corporate structure and help that agent or the attorney, the financial analyst really understand. it's a great shortcut, aye seen it happen, and i can see it has been very quickly. is it going to? of course, we don't know. elizabeth: yeah, that's true. you know, so is have you ever seen anything like this? a mean, we know that the wires and bank account records involved if there is a special counsel probe, but again, this is complex. you know, we've got an e-mail that asks, quote: is the chairman just doing infrastructure or looking at eachnology deals? this involves, allegedly meaning
9:31 pm
joe biden. now, we understand this is a lot of the deal making after he left office, but the bidens did a lot of real estate deals while joe biden was overseeing things like iraq policy. building contracts, homes in iraq. have you ever seen anything like this in your career? >> i've not seen anything like this. it looks really bad. perhaps there's an innocent explanation. but that's one of the reasons i think it calls for a special counsel. all this, we saw with bob mueller, a special counsel is not, he or she is not going to be a panacea. there'll be political issues and so forth. but at least a special counsel gives you a fresh set of eyes and independence to focus on one particular project as opposed to having 10 or 15 cases on the docket, and that's very helpful. elizabeth: interesting. ken starr, thanks for joining us. really appreciate it. >> you're welcome. elizabeth: okay. up next, trump 20 communications

9:37 pm
the gloves and the ventilators that wee need. and so listen, chris, i find it curious, speaking of your brother, you're going to ask me the thesee self-righteous questions. does this hook like a couple of guys who were taking it seriously? you had the cuomo brothers comedy hour joking about the size of the q-tip you would need -- >> yeah, i did, it was funny as hell. >> you didn't sound like somebody who was taking it seriously. >> tim, tim -- >> every step of the way -- >> tim, all right, so let's -- elizabeth: okay. let's welcome tim murtaugh here. tim, it's great to see you. that got really fire true. what gets -- fiery. what gets you guys so upset by chris cuomo? what happens here? >> well, that was actually the first time i've ever been on chris' show, and the beginning of it, and it started off kind o even-keeled. we find that on cnn and other partsnn of the mainstream news
9:38 pm
media, they always want to focus on president trump and really carrying the joe biden message. and what i was trying to convey at first was that the president has a long list of accomplishments and things that he has done to protect the country from the coronavirus up to and including leading towards getting the virus approved for use of hundreds of millions of dosesn in america. and i pointed out that crust' brother, andrew cuomo, the governor of new york, had wonderful things to say about the president, and chris denied that his brother had ever said that when, in fact, it's absolutely true that governor cuomo had said every time he approached the federal government, the president responded very quickly and efficiently and did those very things. i mean, i think it's an unwillingness to actually broadcast what the accomplishments of the president are and a relentless, relentless attack. and it's frustrating because we want to talk about, you know, the election and our opponent and the relative records between trump and biden. and instead it's really nothing but 24 hours a day attacking the
9:39 pm
president. the whole thing is one big in-kind contribution to the biden campaign that should be reported to the ftc as a contribution. elizabeth: okay. so we have got, you know, the criticism has been that president trump is claiming monday that the worsening coronavirus outbreak in the u.s. is a fake news media conspiracy or when we've got hospitalizations on the rise in about 34 states, up by an average of 5% or more. so i think that, i think that's the pushback against president trump right now. can you take that on? >> well, look, the president has done everything in his power with the government and with the private sector, to martial an unprecedented assault on the coronavirus. we are leading the world in testing. you don't hear the media complaining about testing because we're leading the world, and the. president is exactly right. when you do that level of it'sing, naturally, you're going to detect more cases. that's logical. additionally, the case mortality
9:40 pm
rate in the united states isty among the lowest in the world. the truth is if you get infected byhe the coronavirus, the united states is where you want to be for treatment. the therapeutics that have been brought along so quickly like remdesivir, the fact that we are just inches away from having a vaccine, those are stories the media doesn't tell. elizabeth: i want to get your reaction to what former president obama is saying about the trump campaign. as he campaigns for joe biden. let's listen to president obama here. watch this. >> this is the most powerful office on earth. and when people see the president doing things like that, it 'em boddens -- emboldens other people to be mean and cruel and divisive and racist. and it frays the fabric of our lives. it affects the way our children see things. when we tell our children to tell the truth and then we have the person in the highest office
9:41 pm
in the land who doesn't seem capable of doing so, that undermines our society. elizabeth: what's your reaction to that, tim? >> look, i think the president is pretty clear when he says, and he's right, of course, that part of the reason why he got elected was because of the eight years of obama/biden. and that was the public backlash against the policies that they didn't like. and i would further point out that barack obama is a reluctant endorser of joe biden. he waited until there were no other democrats in the democrat primaries before he endorsed joe biden, and now we see -- not drawing any crowds, he's speaking to, essentially, a parking lot there. and the contrast between that and the guy gant with -- gigantic, enthusiastic events on cthe campaign trail for the president, the contrasts couldn't be more clear. joe biden is not barack obama, no one's excited about joe biden. and that certainly doesn't
9:42 pm
transfer. elizabeth: all right. let's show the viewer what's being shown at the trump rallies. it gets a real is response from the crowd. the secret ingredient is the trump campaign is using joe biden's own words against him. watch this. >> i'm supporting nafta because i think it is a positive thing to do, and i do not pretend to be an expert on international trade matters. >> when you ran for president and when barack obama ran for president, you both said you would renegotiate nafta. n'u didn't. >> trade agreements like nafta, trade relations with china which forced american workers to compete against people making pennies an hour has resulted in the loss of 160,000 jobs. >> the president is absolutely right when he says that china has been cheating for 25 years and that bill clinton didn't do enough about it, george w. bush doesn't do enough about it, barack obama didn't want to do -- >> how exactly do you want to negotiate that? >> a rising china is an
9:43 pm
incredibly positive development for not only china, but the united states and the rest of the world. elizabeth: it's also used in the democrats' words like barack obama's words, bernie sanders' words and the media's words. so is that's pretty powerful stuff, tim. final word. >> yeah. that's a new wrinkle that the president wanted to add, showing those videos up on the giant screen. it's a way to spread the word that these are things that joe biden himself has said or the democrats or the media have said, that's exactly right. 9 and it forces the media to pay attention to story thelines that they haven't wanted to cover. elizabeth: all right. tim murtaugh, great to have you on. really appreciate it e. >> good to see you again, liz. elizabeth: same here. next up, retired i.c.e. acting director tom homan on philadelphia now trying to retrieve a state of calm after a night of massive violent riots, 91 arrested, 30 police officers icjured after two cops shot and

officers arrested. two police officers shot and killed a black man. video shows he was chasing police with a knife. critics are asking why didn't the cops use a taser here. what are your thoughts on that? >> well, first of all, we don't know the facts surrounding the whole case. i also seen the video. nfrom the video i saw, and i don't know if they didn't know this person, did they encounter him in the past, does he have a mental ability -- meant ifallal inability -- mental inability? did the police officers know who they were dealing with. but from what i saw, they acted appropriately. they ordered him to drop the knife numerous times, they retreated numerous times, but they can't leave the neighborhood. anyone who wants to take on an armed officer is much more of a danger to theic community. so at some point, they had to take action. and, you know, and despite what everybody says, police officers don't shoot to kill, they shoot to stop. stop the person from what they're doing. but i saw the video. and i don't think it's a racial

issue. i think it's a man with a knife attacking police officers. elizabeth: yeah. i hear what you're saying. are reallyeople upset, rioters came in and looted the commercial district, injured 30 officers with things like bricks and rocks, and the driver of a pickup truck ran at high speed over a 56-year-old female philadelphia cop. she's c now hospitalized in stae condition with a broken leg and other injuries. people are really, really upset about that. your final word. >> well, i think because the police officers are being vilified by members of congress, by mayors and governors, look, this wasn't a george floyd incident. and people need to separate that. what happened with george floyd should have never happened, and those officers should be held accountable. if these officers did something wrong, they need to be held accountable. but it doesn't give people the excuse to go out and assault a police officer, loot and burn. these officers have the same rights you and i both have, have the right to a fair trial, right
