"the five." ♪ the causes a sensation even on vacation. >> north korea does not make any more threats to the united states. they will be met with fire and fury. like the world has never seen. >> greg: oh, dear. as usual, a threat. the factors threat.

>> the first time that the dangerous apocalyptic statement of the north korean regime have been met by dangerous apocalyptic statements that by the president of the united states. >> president trump sounds more like a north korean leader than an american leader. >> who helped him write this statement? was it just him? it was a frightening selection of words. >> this is the most dangerous flash point in the world. every word that the president speaks about north korea is usually carefully crafted and vetted with the secretary of defense, secretary of state, we would preview any language with our allies. it seemed in this case that none of that happened. >> greg: funny how the press -- [laughter] >> greg: funny how the press worries more about donald trump's words than of north korea's actions. i guess they feel they are the only ones allowed to scare people to death.l >> our job tonight is to scare people to death on the subject.

the talk isn't as free as it is about a preemptive or surgical military strike. >> greg: i get it, fire and fury sounds extreme. like a sequel starring vin diesel. but it's what i call the "be crazier than the crazy guy trick." whenever there is a nutcase on the subway, that are aligned, i talk to myself. i appear nuttier than the knot. he usually moves on because i am nott worth the risk and frankly, i smell. we know north korea does crazy better than anybody but so does donald trump, which is good. let's look at north korea, now let's zoom out. that's 25 million people living in a dark hole. existing like a raccoon under your house for decades. that raccoon isn't nuts but acts that way to keep you from trying to kill it. it lives in the dark as the resu of the world rolls merrily on. the question is, has this raccoon gone batty or is it simply displaying strategic irrationality? snarling to keep everyone at

bay? if we do nothing, they do nothing but if they do something, it's over for them. maybe they won't. i mean, do you think they willor risk it all on guam? nope. the raccoon stays in its hole while trump speaks to them in raccoon. i say instead, work about the truly apocalyptic. those who believe martyrdom, trumps life, all they need is a dirty dirty bomb and a chance.k. north korea is truly a risk. radical islam? that is the ruin. dana, you almost took a job in guam.am what did guam do to deserve this? i feel bad for guam. >> dana: in graduate school, there was a job going for guam at the base. instead, i ended up going up to washington, d.c. the swamp. >> greg: why do you hate guam? >> dana: i love guam. >> greg: what happens now? >> dana: what happens now?

the compilation you did, it's good and instructive. it happens over and over with trump. he says something and everyone overreacts to come and then come after a night sleep, you wake up and go "oh, okay, wait. i get it." yesterday, it wasn't that it was off-the-cuff, obviously he was talking about north korea with his national security team all the time but it wasn't written down and it wasn't in a teleprompter and did not go a through white house staffing. but this is the president of the united states. he has to make a decision now. he's facing something that noen other president has faced. now the situation got real. he has to do something. he was talking directly to north korea. i think he believes that his comments would reassure americans. i don't know if that actually was the case. he will figure that out. but for me, yeah, what he said is true. if north korea does something, we will do that. >> greg: marie, he's a negotiator. do you think this is a negotiating stance? well, we will blow you up too.

you somehow meet in the middle. >> marie: i'm not sure the trump administration has a plan to meet in the middle. it's a really complicated thing that all the administrations for decades have tried. the problem for me with his rhetoric is that he sort of backed himself into a corner here.r he's almost promising very escalatory -- what would be very dangerous military action and there are no good military options. they are all ugly. or heave it doesn't do anything, it's shown to be an empty threa threat. >> greg: like a red line, marie? >> marie: we were talking about this before the show, i would tell the president not to get anywhere near calling for redlines. things are very complicated and i don't know if the america people know what he's talking about but who i really care about is the north korean dictator. and how he's calculating what donald trump is saying. and how he will respond. >> greg: kimberly, do you think that the north korean dictator really thinks we are going toth invade? or is he just doing this to

establish some kind ofnk relationship? >> kimberly: i am here representing the redline.is [laughter] >> kimberly: indeed. he knows i'm talking to him. i think the comments that were directed at both north korea, in terms of moving military assets, russia has done so and now china because they want to cover their bases here. especially because of yes, theer inflammatory rhetoric by the president but i do think he chose his words carefully. i think he meant to say it. that's exactly how he feels. i'm sure if they tried to persuade him, they were largely unsuccessful. in terms of listening to him, you have to think -- kim jong un, china, this guy could in fact do this. you see them respond in time to hiprepare themselves for it. i would take them seriously. i don't think he is ruling out any options and i think he

thinks this is the biggest threat we are facing right now in the country. >> greg: jesse, i think it's the longest time -- we use rational, conceptual terms. in iran, they burn the flag the everyone else is saying, "death to america." it's kind of nice to actually use their language and see what happens. >> jesse: right, trump was speaking in a language that the north koreans can understand. strong, military terminology. obama's fluffy talk, what did that result in? the north koreans nuked up. they accelerated their nuclear program while obama was speaking deliberately, with very diplomatic tones. what happened also under barack obama, he crippled our missile defense system.es it went from 9 billion to 7 billion. could have used some of that. bill clinton also shares some of the responsibility here, too. he gave the north koreans $5 billion and says they were going to freeze and dismantle a

nuclear program and the u.n. was going to inspect it. how does that work out? not so well. trumps being unpredictable is a big asset. before the north koreans knew what president obama was going to do,o, which was going to be nothing. now there's a new sheriff in town. the language is directed not only at korea, but also china. the democrats who have been itching for a fight with russiah over the last six months or so to now say trump's rhetoric is over the line. they have called vladimir putin a "murderous butcher" who declared an act of war on the united states and wee needed to bomb the kgb as a result. some of these senators are putting out all these statements about trump's rhetoric. they didn't put out any statement when north korea fired a missile. that court if it los angeles. these missiles are aimed at l.a. and san francisco. trump is trying to protect all f americans. not republicans, not democrats.

the country needs to come together and face the real threat, not donald trump, north korea. >> greg: i want to bring up -- an elegant piece this morning. it's about time, just cutting it down a little. i'm kidding. he says, unless we decide what we want, we are negotiating for more negotiating and that gives time for your adversary to achieve their end. the question we have to ask is before you negotiate, what you want? what do we want? america doesn't want a war. >> dana: i think president trump doesn't want to be the president that allows president trump to be a nuclear rise to power. i think he knows what he wants for his presidency and what his responsibility is. no president would want to have that. he's not going to be able to pass this problem on in its current form to another t president. that happened under clinton, bush, and obama. in fact, on the first day they met, president obama told president-elect trump that the

toughest problem i am leaving for you is north korea.a "i'm sorry about it but here we have it." the concern on the intel side of things, at that meeting, president trump -- sorry, president obama said, "in your term, it's likely that this will come up." that would be four f years. this happened in five months. our intel is difficult to get because we don't have any assets on the ground and the intel we had was wrong. if indeed they are now to map it. smaller missiles on icbms. >> greg: marie, what should we do? >> marie: going to the intel, there isie disagreement in the intel community about whether they can do it. one thing we need tot' do is to really focus on getting intel, that's the crucial issue, i think. we have to do all the above. we have to put economic pressure, especially on china. i think china holds the key to whether we can actually get some progress in north korea because you have the head of special

operations saying every military option is incredibly ugly. the obama administration did the deploy missile defense to korea. we did deploy it to guam. our favorite topic tonight. we did deploy it to deal with north korea. we have to do more of that.it it's not an end all, be all. >> jesse: during the '80s -- i don't remember, i was a young lad. [laughter] >> greg: you were only wearing khakis at the time. >> jesse: that's right. president reagan was criticized as being this reckless cowboy. he was saying the soviet union was an evil empire. and he was putting missiles in western europe. while also negotiating. this is exactly what president trump is doing now.s he's got the carrot and a stick and we are going to see what happens. >> greg: kimberly, last word to you. i think north korea is counting on us valuing human life more then. l

>> kimberly: than they do. the disregard for humanity and public safety and the general well-being of their citizens, you know, they don't care if they are starving and have food. it's horrific conditions. yeah, they are hoping they areta going to say wait, the cost is too high and of course when you look at it from any military calculation, it's extreme and it's ominous. great care must be taken. i think that is why there is a criticism of the rhetoric that was used, it has been called bombastic, et cetera. if the president had to do it over, he would do it again. >> greg: i just don't like the fact that north korea is making it our problem. it feels like they are trying. >> marie: they need an external foe to say this is our problem and unfortunately, the president's rhetoric provides h that. >> dana: can i add one more thing? >> greg: one more thing. >> dana: all the problems of the world come to the president's desk. the danger here is that they can handle a lot but there's this

north korea thing and in the meantime, russia is still threatening ukraine and elsewhere. you have iran doing funny business all throughout the region. especially in lebanon and syria. venezuela about to be a failed estate, a growing humanitarian crisis in africa and there's probably so many other things i haven't mentioned, like climate change. >> greg: there you go. we are upbeat. fbi raid in the home of the former trump campaign chairman. what were they looking for? what does it mean for the president? details next. ♪ [dog barks] trust safelite autoglass to fix it fast, and we'll get you back on the road!

mueller hasas turned up the heat on paul manafort directly. federal agents were armed with a search warrant and they raided the home in the predawn hours of july 26. the timing is significant. one day after manafort met voluntarily with members in the senate intelligence committee. people familiar told "the washington post" the search warrant was an indication that investigators may have had reason to believe t manafort could not be trusted to turn over all the records that had been requested in a grand jury subpoena. jason maloney told fox that fbi agents executed a search warrant and manafort has cooperated with law enforcement. other serious inquiries, and did so on this occasion, as well. our own fox news analyst judge napolitano said they may believe there was a crime there and persuaded a federal judge there was good reason for this search. >> we don't trust them to give them to us and preserved them for his own lawyer is telling us

wrong, that would be good to know. by satellites, i guess he was meaning people like paul manafort. is that square? >> kimberly: i think that's square. in terms of what mueller is doing, maybe they are trying to flip manafort and they are putting a real squeeze on him. it's being done in an overt way. maybe something they heard and also whether or not the veracity of the statements, now they are going to go through this. and then decide what they have. and probably try to get him to close in on a bigger fish. >> dana: he had a lot of business with foreign governments, including the russian backed ukrainian guy, $10 million a year. text messages that were released between his daughter saying this is blood money. this is maybe not the best person to have in your orbit.

>> jesse: has innocent until proven guilty but it's never good when the fbi raids your house at dawn. i know that he has done consulting business and lobbied for african dictators, he is friends with arms dealers. he has represented rebel groups in africa. now lately he's been dealing with a lot of ukrainian politicians and that's why the democrats are trying to go for the russian angle. trump brings him and for a few months, lining up the delegates for the conventions. he has done that for bush and dole. he was apparently at that meeting with the russian woman. they raided his house. who knows what they're going to find? he better have clean books because if he doesn't have clean books, he's going to go down for a white-collar crime. maybe they try to flip him but what does he have anything on? i still don't see the conspiracy that the left is pointing to. >> dana: i asked a former fbi agent, when they do something

like that, a predawn raid, do they have something specific they are trying to find? he said, yes. they want to go in there and get something and get out. >> greg: i just hope it doesn't happen to me. if you're going to show up, if there after i've had coffee. i don't think i could handle a predawn raid without my coffee. >> kimberly: and the guests have left. >> greg: my guests have left and i get myself together after the coffee. it's not surprising that they are investigating manafort. he has more russian ties in a men's warehouse in moscow. rich dudes in russia by definition are after the fall corrupt. does it matter? i don'trk know. it's going to be a lot of work and time. i don't know what to make of this.. trump fired him already. he fired him because he didn't trust him. >> dana: right, maybe he knew he wasn't the best people. >> greg: we all make mistakes. >> dana: obviously dictators

deserve representation too. >> greg: nothing illegal about that. >> marie: he didn't register the foreign agent. i know it's not the world's worst crime but i've always said that the people they are focusing the most on are manafort and flynn. that's who you keep hearing about, having been super shady thingser, not been honest and forthcoming when they did lobbying on behalf of ukrainian dictators and now retroactively going to get right with the law on some of these things? look, i don't know what's going to come of this but is clear this p investigation is serious and continuing. >> dana: dan rather's got some words of praise for some leakers. that's next. ♪ t a safe driving bonus check every six months i'm accident free.

my grandfather pleaded, my father plaited, i played it. if i had a son, i of course would let him play. i think he would be a great football player. [laughter]r] >> jesse: it's the greatest sport ever, i think. if you're going to say it's child abuse, so is sending your kid to the military. so is loading them up with fast food. it causes diabetes. smoking around them. secondhand smoke causes cancer. taking them on a ski trip. more head injuries with skiing than football. of course, football comes with a risk. it's important that everybody knows those risks and i bet 99% of the football players, knowing the risk, would still put the pads on and go out there and, drill somebody coming across the middle. >> marie: i think you're hearing some former players who are conflicted on this. dana, are there things we can do? this language seems so explosive that it almost -- it makes conversation harder. >> dana: we started the show talking about president trump's rhetoric, that it was hot and

explosive for a reason, he isrh try to make a point so that people might change their behavior. a i think that this is kind of the same thing. i don't have a problem with it. parents can make their own decisions. t i was talking to chris stirewalt on our podcast, and he has two sons, so i asked him about it because i don't have children. he said he was very much preferring that his two sons not play football and in the future, people will look back and say wow, i can't believe people actually used to do that becausw it was so dangerous. >> marie: right, do you think this doctor has any kind of credibility left? he was well respected, the will smith movie -- comments like this make it harder to take them seriously. >> dana: wow, you are tough on him.m. >> marie: i love football. >> jesse: football is great, everybody loves it. a billion-dollar industry. that's what everybody does on sundays and it creates a lot of wealth for a lot of people from a lot of disadvantaged backgrounds. everyday plays football. he learned a lot about team chemistry and the ball is america. you're never going to take away america. >> greg: it's baseball, jesse!wa
