10:01 pm
contender governor john kasich reacts to brand-new fox news presidential poll numbers. "hannity" starts right here right now. welcome to "hannity." new developments that could spell doom for hillary clinton's presidential campaign. the fbi has retrieved some of the e-mails that clinton deleted off her personal server. we'll have more on that with ed henry in a few minutes. brand-new national fox polls were released this evening and it show that the outsider candidates continue to surge among you the voters. zanding by is carl cameron. donald trump and carson and fiorina, rubio and cruz are going to be happy. >> lots of movement and lots of new numbers in the latest fox po polls. trump has gone up to 26%. and dr. ben carson went up 6 percentage points and is now in second place solidly at 18%. both carly fiorina and marco
10:02 pm
rubio gained ground. they're tied at 9% apiece and they lead the single digits bunch. the rest of the gop field is lower down. scott walker's withdraw from the race is now being seen as something as a potential bump for either rubio or ted cruz or boat. they're both courting walker's donors and stop state organizers around the country. ben carson shows significant momentum in this poll as well as others in the last few day. carly fiorina, of course, did get that bounce from her primetime debate performance last week and now has to build a national organization around it. she's been running pretty lean on the campaign trail in terms of staff and organization, so she'll have to boost it. trump has been complaining that he is the front-runner but people like fiorina and rubio are joining in the headlines. voters are fickle and they turn on front-runners in the last few weeks. anybody with momentum now, it
10:03 pm
could burn out. anybody who gets momentum then just might wind the nomination. >> too unpredictable. heck of a year. joining me with the latest developments surrounding hillary clinton's server scandal, she's got that, she's got the bloomberg poll where joe biden is not even in the race is within eight points striking distance and answering questions about ed kline's book and did she start the birther movement. she's got a lot of trouble on her hands. >> her campaign, you're right, may be in need of another reboot. we heard about the recent one. it may not be working. you mentioned the e-mail controversy, she's trying to get past that. the fbi has been able to recover e-mails from her server, specifically some personal e-mails. remember she talked about how it was just yoga and other small matters in the personal e-mail that she deleted. now we're told that the fbi is
10:04 pm
recovering some of them. are there official e-mails in there that were really not personal? that needs to be answered. they're recovering work-related e-mails. will they find more classified information? then you have "the washington post" reports that show that state department officials privately say the reason they sought hillary clinton's work-related e-mail was they were concerned about the fact that she had this other e-mail account, a personal e-mail kkt that they didn't know about. why is that significant? hillary clinton has said something different. her narrative has been, look, this is a routine matter. the state department asking for official e-mail not just from hillary clinton but from other former secretary of states to have federal records in order. state department officials are saying something else is going on. joe biden rising 25%. he's not even in the race, as you said. a point ahead of bernie sanders and only eight points behind hillary clinton with 33%.
10:05 pm
what's significant about that is in that bloomberg poll she's dipped far below 40%. that's a danger zone for any front-runner. there's a new fox poll out that gives hillary clinton a stronger lead over bernie sanders and joe biden. but again down from where she was just a month ago. remember, she was sort of the overwhelming front-runner a month, two months ago in the 50s, big, big lead. that's been coming down and something she's going to have to stop the bleeding real fast. >> that e-mail issue in the fox poll nearly 60% of people thing it's a big deal and she's lying. >> majority think that she's lying. what i thought was most interesting -- yeah, something like 82% of republicans say they think she's lying. there's a lot of republican critics of hillary clinton, let's be honest. but 33% of democrats we polled say they think she's lying. more important than that a big
10:06 pm
share of independent voters. the folks who decide a lot of elections, general elections, the folks in the middle that everybody is trying to get in a general election, a big share of independent voters said they think she's lying. that's worrisome for the campaign. >> it goes with the dishonest, untrust worthy narrative that's been going on. ed kline will be on this program next monday. an account released in his book that says she went into the oval office, yelled at the president and basically saying, call the blanking dogs off, barack. and he didn't respond very well to that. >> they haven't said much about that, to be honest. ed kline has written a lot about the clintons and the obamas. you talked about it. the clintons and the obamas don't like to dignify the reports with a comment. is it true, is it false? he writes about a lot of anecdotes where there's two people in the room, much like bob woodward does and nobody
10:07 pm
knows what happened. the bottom line is this clinton campaign is seeing criticism coming in from all angles. they desperately want to get off this e-mail controversy but it keeps coming back. >> then trey gowdy and that's not going away any time soon. jay sekulow. so if the fbi was able to recover a significant portion, if not all, of the 33,000-some-odd e-mails that she deleted and supposedly wiped clean from her server, and they don't deal with yoga, her daughter's wedding, her mother's funeral or bill clinton, who doesn't e-mail, which is a lie. or certain e-mails that were subpoenaed by different committees. how big a legal problem would she have? because i'm not believing the yoga, funeral, wedding, i'm writing to bill narrative 33,000
10:08 pm
times. if these are there, what does it mean legally? >> i think this is a significant development if in fact the fbi has been able to find these e-mails. because it presents what we would call in the law evidence. now, if in fact that evidence includes classified information that was wiped off the server, that, as we discussed before, is a crime. when i was a government lawyer, we said i work for the treasury department as a lawyer. follow the paper, follow the money. you follow where the evidence leads. what you have is the evidence is being recovered. if that evidence shows that there was, in fact, government classified material on there and that it was subsequently wiped off -- >> or subpoenaed. >> as we've already knowned and has been confirmed maintained in a server that was not secured, she has serious criminal liability in my view. very serious. >> so we're talking about also not only would she have violated the law just on that front, when
10:09 pm
we've gone through a series of laws that would be applicable in this case, but then when we get into obstruction of justice, investigation of a congressional committee, that would be a big issue for her. are we looking at criminal time, possible jail time if in fact these e-mails are not about yoga, e-mailing her husband, a wedding and a funeral? are we looking at jail time? >> one statute itself has one year. another one of the statutes that could be implicated here when you don't have your information secured in an appropriate device or place, or you intentionally interfered with that, which could lead to some of the evidence that could look like that, you're talking about felonies. at the minimum, misdemeanors then the potential of felony. all of this is really serious with regard to potential jail time. but something else, the fact that the fbi is able to recover this information has got to have the clinton campaign concerned because, sean, they were
10:10 pm
counting on the fact that this was, as ed henry just said, was going to fade away. every day there's something new. now it's the actual evidence. >> i got believe -- >> it will be damaging. >> politically she's got a big problem because these are provable lies now. but criminally speaking, that's the bigger issue for her. >> yeah. it is important. >> why am i having a hard time believing 33,000 e-mails were about yoga, a wedding, funeral and communication with somebody who doesn't e-mail? >> because it doesn't make any sense. >> because it makes no sense. so i have to believe that there are e-mails about benghazi on there that could be quite damning and also criminal. now, what do we do in terms of getting from the point of if she did break the law, who makes the decision if they prosecute, go to a grand jury? >> the department of justice. the attorney general would have to make that call. the fact of the matter is the fbi is conducting an investigation. if it is determined that there is, in fact, as you just said, information that was classified,
10:11 pm
that was put on improper servers, that were deleted, all of those are separate crimes. i don't see how the fbi, even under this department of justice, could not bring at least a grand jury inquiry, and when that inquiry starts and you're running for president of the united states, a pretty difficult situation. then if there's subsequently an indictment, that's a whole different ball game. but look, i mean, it's not just -- it's not just -- >> last question. >> -- whether they recovered personal e-mails. that won't be big news. the news will be if there's more clas servers that weren't secured and she wiped them or someone on her staff had them wiped, and that person by the way, may not have had clearance, there's a multitude of criminal activity here that will be serious. i suspect that's why joe biden's thinking about running for president. >> if they find them and if in fact it was sean hannity, would they indict me? >> oh, look, no doubt. >> i'm just asking.
10:12 pm
>> look, i'm not picking on you here, sean, but the fact of the matter is if you intentionally destroy documents, whether it's evidence, whether it's subject to a congressional inquiry or classified information here and you intentionally have that put in a server that you knew was not secure or certainly wasn't approved by the government, that's what the state department's saying, then, of course, you'd be indicted. >> i hope you would come to my defense. >> i will defend you in a moment. >> thank you, jay sekulow. coming up tonight on "hannity" -- >> do you believe that shariah law should be above the u.s. constitution? >> yes. the muslim country, shariah law, it's allowed. other country, no, you have to right constitution. >> we sent our own david webb to a local islamic center to see if muslims thing shariah law supersedes the u.s. constitution. those answers will surprise you.
10:13 pm
then later tonight governor john kasich will join us. and a disturbing report says the u.s. military is ignoring rampant sexual abuse, pedophilia of young boys by afghan officers on american bases. we'll have that shocking story tonight straight ahead. it's intelligent enough to warn of danger from virtually anywhere. it's been smashed, dropped and driven. it's perceptive enough to detect other vehicles on the road. it's been shaken, rattled and pummeled. it's innovative enough to brake by itself, park itself and help you steer. it's been in the rain... the cold... and dragged through the mud. introducing the all-new mercedes-benz gle. it's where brains meet brawn. hand apparently, they also lovee stickers.ing. what's up with these things, victor? we decided to give ourselves stickers

10:16 pm
♪ roll with it baby >> welcome back to "hannity." in the wake of dr. benjamin carson expressing concern about a muslim becoming president of the united states, we decided to launch a special "hannity" investigation to find out if muslim americans think shariah law should supersede the u.s. constitution. we sent out david webb to an
10:17 pm
islamic cultural center in new york city. watch this closely. >> your thoughts, should shariah law supersede the u.s. constitution? >> no, but i think that shariah law, it's made by god, by allah. and the constitution is made by people. so it's not the same. >> do you believe that shariah law should be above the u.s. constitution? >> yes. yes! shariah law is completely different than the united states constitution. as a muslim, you practice my islamic law as a muslim. united states constitution as a citizen, i have respect of the constitution. in a muslim country, shariah law is allowed. other country, no, you have the right constitution. >> should any religious law supersede the u.s. constitution at any time? any denomination? >> maybe in the future. u.s. constitution deserves all
10:18 pm
the people living in the u.s. their rights, right? shariah law doesn't contradict with this. shariah law just protects our dignify -- like we are human beings, we're respectful, we have respect from the society. >> you thing thk that the u.s. constitution should be the law of land in the u.s. >> also helps to protect shariah. >> should shariah law be over the constitution? >> yes. every country has different laws, but i respect the law in any country i go. >> do you believe that the tenants of shariah law should be over the u.s. constitution? >> no, no. >> the u.s. constitution is made by people and shariah law is made by allah. that's all the way above. that has to be definitely not for america but the whole world would be above. >> so that should be above the u.s. constitution? >> definitely, yes. >> joining me with reaction, syndicator radio talk show host
10:19 pm
the spokesperson for the community, harris zafar and david webb. this backs up a poll that came out last year that even a majority of muslims in america think that shariah should supersede the constitution. >> there was no problem getting these questions and answers from these folks. you saw a wide variety of them. we gave them a chance to answer. i have this problem with anyone anywhere who believes that any religious belief supersedes the u.s. constitution. we're a nation where the constitution guarantees your religious freedom and where your religion does not trump it. most people believe that in america. there are muslims who want to live here and live under our constitution, but too much we find a growing number of them that believe shariah should supersede the u.s. constitution and one there -- in other countries, it's shariah, but look at those countries where shariah is the law.
10:20 pm
>> mr. zafar, while you're more liberal minded if your views, generally speak, we know the application of shariah, renders or relegates women and minorities to second class citizens. that's just the fact when you look at the application of shariah in muslim countries. if you have more than half of muslim americans that want shariah, they're basically saying they don't support the u.s. constitution. where you have freedom of religion and freedom of expression. >> what surprises me, the reason this surprises me is because the most fundamental principle in islam on this subject is that the law of the land supersedes all other laws. there are verses in the koran that talk about government do not talk about any religious involvement mp they say put your trust in those who are in authority in your country. >> wait a minute. the true application of shariah in countries is women can't drive, women have to dress a certain way, they can't be seen in public with men that are not
10:21 pm
their relatives. in some cases women need four male eyewitnesses for rape. those that leave the faith are viewed as apostate, they're killed for such religious liberty. so the reality is it is at odds with the us constitution. its practical application. >> this is what ben carson was talking about when he said he couldn't advocate for electing a muslim president. this is a very troubling fact of life in society. and the fact that the democrats are attacking ben carson over saying this, i mean, this is a -- shariah law, there's no gay marriage, for instance. abortion, as you pointed out, is punishable by death, blasphemy. no one is talking about rounding up muslims, certainly not ben
10:22 pm
carson like fdr did during world war ii. but this is just fundamentally shariah law -- >> how are we -- i want to expand on that. because fundamentally the koran and islam -- i'm not talking about radical islamists. the koran and islam are fundamentally at odds with the constitution. isn't that the truth? correct, right? >> not the truth. >> did you ever think, sean, that we'd come to a point in our lifetimes where the constitution and the bill of rights would be on the table? >> no. >> it's just mind boggling. and i can't -- and i don't understand why the democrats are so down on carson. you know, they have litmus tests so called for supreme court justices. if you're against abortion rights, they're not going to vote for you including hillary clinton, chuck schumer. now they have a litmus test for citizens united, the supreme court decision about the first
10:23 pm
amendment. so i mean, if ben carson wants to make this a litmus test, if you're for shariah law, he won't vote for you? what's the problem? i'm with ben carson. >> by the way, if i ask you, mr. zafar, you know, where are the catholic and christian and protestant and jewish temples in muslim countries and what are the restrictions or what is the punishment for anyone who speaks out against the very extremely controversial life of mohammed. applied currently in muslim countries today. >> right. so what you have clearly and very accurately defined as the system of government in countries like iran, saudi arabia, pakistan, afghanistan, there's a reason why in the worldwide muslim community do we consistently -- >> in pakistan you can't get a muslim funeral -- >> the u.s. -- the united
10:24 pm
states. >> they just had a -- >> the u.s. constitute coots. >> -- in denmark. they want to make denmark a muslim nation. >> where this needs to begin is that there's a reformation needed. the ama dhea muslims, the soofys, the other groups. just like there's a reformation, it is time for a muslim reformation. but here's my point. in the united states they can plant -- they can create a foundation. >> -- 98%. >> i hear you. >> but it's got to -- >> last word. >> that's why it's important to remember the u.s. constitutes less than 5% of the world's population. obviously they're not unimportant. it's about the world impact. they have built 15,000 mosques in the world. >> you're less than 2%. >> and u.s. is less than 5%.

state of ohio. john kasich is with us. how are you, governor? >> i'm doing great. i'm in boston getting ready to fly back to the buckeye state. >> that's why we played boston coming in, so we'd make you feel at home when you are there. you called on the u.s. senate to block filibusters and pass the bill opposing this dangerous iranian deal. my criticism is with congress. they wouldn't use the power of the purse to repeal baemcare. that's their constitution power. i think a mistake. they wouldn't stop obama's executive amnesty. i think they'll end up funding planned parenthood by next week. we'll see. why won't they do what you're asking them to do and how would you tell them to do it? >> well, sean, this i don't understand because this iranian deal, it's opposed by --
10:29 pm
everybody is concerned about it. i find very few supporters for this. people say if it's done, then we figure out what we do about it. but frankly, i don't want it to be done. i think the senate is always reluctant to just end the filibuster because the filibuster, it can be used sometimes to block really bad things that could come down the road offered by people who are very liberal, for example. but in this case when you're talking about an agreement, it really should be a treaty to not have the united states senate be able to vote on it. to me, sean, it's ridiculous. now they say well the time has passed. forget the time has passed. there's ways in which you can change the rule and have a vote. you don't have to do it willy-nilly. you don't have to do it every week, but this iy big issue. i don't think they should let a bunch -- >> you don't think -- >> yes, i want them to have a vote. then people will say if there's a vote, the president will veto
10:30 pm
it and they don't have the votes to override it. you don't know that. when the american people engage, it's amazing how many politicians will change their position. so they at least ought to have a vote and give the people a chance to speak. absolutely they should do it. >> do you agree with me that republicans in the house and senate have been timid and weak and afraid that they're going to get blamed for a government shutdown? i want 60 votes in the senate, but they don't have it. in 2014 they said give us a majority and we'll stop illegal unconstitutional executive amnesty and they ended up funding it. is this where a lot of anger from conservatives like me is comi from? >> yep. and sean, the thing i really don't understand here is -- look, you don't have to shut the government down to send the president bills that he can veto. and let him veto. i went through this on welfare reform. bill clinton vetoed welfare reform. i don't know it was one or two
10:31 pm
times, but we kept sending it to him. guess what happened. >> at the end of the day the public spoke. >> and the government shut down. >> ended up with a balanced budget. i knew because i was in the middle of shutting it down, i knew that we would get the clinton administration ultimately to bend because there were too many people there who said, yeah, we really need that to pursue a balanced budget. so you don't want to do this all the time. but there are times when it really can matter as long as you can get a win. but you can do it by sending pieces of legislation and having the president veto it like we did on welfare reform. we didn't have to shut the government down, but we got welfare reform through. >> you did shut it down on the issue of balancing a budget with cbo numbers in seven years and you did it. >> right. >> so this is my next question for you. i know your background and record as well as anybody. you have a very impressive conservative record. you were the architect -- >> right. >> -- as the house budget chair
10:32 pm
of the last balanced budget this country had. you created a surplus with your budget and you fought the president, president clinton at the time, to get it. as governor you inherited huge deficits, huge surpluses -- excuse me, huge deficits, you turned a surplus. job loss that you turned to job creation. the only two issues i ever hear conservatives critical towards you about, immigration and the refugee issue which you and i discussed the last time you were on the program. i want to give you an opportunity to expand on this. should people who do not respect our law and sovereignty, why should they have a path towards citizenship? >> i'm for legalization, sean. i'm not for giving -- >> no citizenship. >> no, i don't believe in that. but i do believe if they've been law abiding in this country, they can get to legalization. they have to pay a fine and everything else. but the wall has to go up, sean. look, reagan was for letting these folks stay in 1986.
10:33 pm
where did they fall down? they didn't finish the wall. if you come over for any reason, you're going back. i don't want to argue or discuss it with them. you got to go back. but for the ones that are here, i think they can be given a path to legalization. if they broke the law, that's a whole other story. >> a path to legalization. just to be clear -- >> no, i don't believe we should -- >> okay. >> correct. i believe we should go to legalization, not citizenship. i don't believe that the path. >> when you and i were on the last time, we discussed this. >> yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. >> james clapper and spokesperson for the state department james kir oui both stated that it is likely that isis and al qaeda will infiltrate the refugee population. that to me is too big a risk -- >> sean, look, we can't be assured by people like clapper that we don't have the process to properly screen, then we
10:34 pm
can't do it. so the issue is, they got to present a program to us that says, yes, we can determine who these people are. why am i saying this? because, sean, i don't want to go alone on everything in this world. the europeans are being flooded. if we look the other way, i mean, frankly, i think we're not going to be able to rebuild these relationships. i like the coalition that george bush the senior put together to go into the gulf war. i supported him there. we had a coalition. it was awesome, powerful, we accomplished our goal. at this point in time we have to rebuild those relationships and i don't want us to be the policemen of the world. i want us to work with others to accomplish our goals including restoring sanctions on iran if they cheat including boots on the ground to destroy isis, these are the things i believe in. >> governor, i'm getting yelled in my ear. i know what that's like in tv

10:41 pm
military officials are denying that there is a policy in place that prevents soldiers from reporting these criminal act. the top u.s. commander in afghanistan, army general john campbell, issued a statement yesterday writing in part, quote, i personally have served multiple tours of duty in afghanistan and am absolutely confident that no such theater policy has ever existed here and certainly no such policy has existed throughout my tenure as commander. here with reaction fox news military analyst lieutenant colonel david hunt, lieutenant colonel bill cowan. gentlemen, i've heard this report myself. we've discussed it on this program before. do you believe colonel hunt, this is true? >> it's absolutely true. it's been true for 12 years in both iraq and afghanistan. the issue here is quite clear. general campbell is technically correct. there is no policy that says you cannot prevent -- there's also not a policy to prevent.

it's absolutely ridiculous. what happened is a special forces captain on trial actually stopped a police captain in afghanistan on a military base from raping a young boy. >> look, i don't want to question the integrity of mr. campbell. maybe he doesn't know. >> well, sean, sean, sean, i'm saying what he's saying is not technically accurate. the problem is a dodge. there is no policy that says we're not -- you can't -- >> it's happening. >> the point is there's no policy at all. there's no policy. it's been going on in afghanistan and iraq. and it's got to stop. >> no written policy. >> colonel cowan? go ahead. >> there's no written policy. it's an unwritten policy. it goes without saying. that's evidenced by what captain dan quinn and sergeant charles buckley, what happened to them. it's evidenced by the young

corporal that lost his life when one of the boys was being abused and killed him and god bless them and his father for stepping up and saying something. this story has been waiting in the depths to come out. people are wondering what the hell are we doing in afghanistan if that's a culture we're trying to save from the taliban. >> i'm aghast because i know there's not one soldier that would find this acceptable. if it wasn't a written law, was it an unwritten rule that your career will blow up if in fact you say anything? >> yes. >> sean -- >> making -- >> colonel hunt, go ahead. >> the point bill and i are making, yeah, it's unwritten, but there's no policy to prevent. look, we took over these countries and trained their military, their police and their government. and what happened in this particular case was on a u.s. military compound. we're complicit in this. and the fact of a chain of command starting with a four-star general wants to say there's no policy to prevent is
10:44 pm
dodging the issue. there's no policy that says you should stop, you must stop. we have been looking at this for 12 years and two occupations. the rape of boys and girls on militant compounds by our alleged ally who we're there to help. and it's criminal. a captain and a sergeant, instead of being promoted, are being thrown out of the military for it. as bill said, we've had marines killed because of this. >> bill cowan, we'll give you the last word. colonel? >> guilt by association, sean. our u.s. forces are on those bases. those things are happening. this is an abject failure of leadership from the lower levels of command all the way to the top. they knew this was going on. nobody stepped up and said, you afghans better get it right. we're investing american lives in you. you better make some changes. nobody in that chain of command stood up to the afghans and said we're not accepting it. >> it takes my breath away. >> still aren't. >> i can't believe what i'm hearing.

10:51 pm
nobody ever heard of. victims, 49 people shot, eight died. and the president, his own hometown. not a peep. why? >> sean, the numbers are staggering if you think about it. violence in the city of chicago is an epidemic. if eight people died and 46 were injured when a tornado would sweep through, a state of emergency would be declared and the national guard called out for this. in this instance, all we get from rahm emmanuel is a shoulder shrug. and from the president of the united states, the same. what it proves to me is that this is exhibit a in a case, for these individuals, black lives do not matter. >> that is a powerful statement. add to that, now, police, you

know, post michael brown and darren wilson and post baltimore they don't want to do their job. >> it has a lot to do with it. there is a lot going on, not only in chicago but in baltimore, and milwaukee, my hometown. one of the things that have gone on is the war on police, police are less assertive right now. what needs to happen in chicago, milwaukee, and new york is the political class, rahm emmanuel in chicago, and de blasio in new york they need to make it clear they're going to resource the police department and stand behind these officers. >> they're not going to do that. >> i know, but i am telling you what would turn this around. the good, law-abiding people of
