that's our promise. we are not like them. we are fair, we are balanced, let not your heart be troubled. i'm giving you three extra second. >> you are so mean. you are horrible to them, sean. >> did you not watch this and feel like you were watching jerry springer? >> this is awful. oh, my gosh. >> they were trying to leave a message during the break. >> we'll play it tomorrow. >> great show. great show. i'm laura ingraham. this is ingraham angle live from washington d.c. this is, our 100th show. can you believe it? like it was last year we started. we have an incredible show you

are not going to want to miss hitting every story from a lot of different angles. we have a stunning revelation out of orlando. the father of the terrorist that killed 49 people in pulse nightclub was known. plus, the left is targeting masculinity. we are going to debate what is really motivating them. and what key fact do those gun control marchers not understand. we'll have video that will shock you. when trump wins on principle, that's the focus of tonight's angle. all right, given friday's kick in the gut to the trump base when the president decided to sign that $3.1 trillionbill, a

lot of you were thinking about the bait and switch, i want to tell you tonight, there are victories on the horizon, especially involving one critical area that is woefully w undercoverred by the american media which the president pressed on the campaign trail. >> on trade, we are going to end the international abuse, our massive product trade deficits are destroying the middle class and shifting money away from workers to large corporations who have no borders. >> that was one of the reasons he got elected. trump's team has been busily

renegotiating trade deals. and get fruits of this work are now emerging. those once serious tv networks, our trade policy doesn't merit asad much air time as porn star. but our trade relationship with the rest of the world has lasting impact on the lives of most americans and their families. trump has been pretty wiley onn trade, he has made provocative and bold moves. he talked tough, threatened terrorists, at every turn the globalists predicted total disaster. >> the u.s. president is going to impose tariffs on steel and aluminuman imports, this is my word for i might start a trade war. >> there are real consequences. >> this is a toxic mix we are in right now.ia if the president pushes ahead

withno this, it's not too far a reach to say could this be the thing that pushes the world into a period of considerable instability. >> oh, my god. how do these people still work in television, i don't get it.se once again, the so-called experts, i say that all the time, the so-called experts were wrong. last week's proposal to raise $60 billion of tariffs have brought beijing to the negotiating table. today the chinese economic minister announced they are continuing talks with the trump administration but they already committed to a lot, easing u.s. access to the chinese market, treating domestic and foreign firms the same, and they will no longer require u.s. firms to hand over intellectual property

to their chinese properties in exchange for operating in their country. the trump team is also making headway in lowering chains tariffs on american cars. and that they are going a to gan access to the chinese financial sector. well, folks, since we have a $375 billion trade deficit with china, this is all really good news. on trade, let's remember, the president has stood on principle. he stuck to his guns and he completely altered the dynamic for the better. not only in china. the white house says a new nafta deal is in the offing. jared kushner is working hard on this behind the scenes. then today we learned that trump's tariff talk brought back korea to the trade bargaining table as well. i mean, think about this. less than three months after he

was elected, president trump made it clear what he thought of that korean u.s. free trade deal. >> we have a horrible trade deal with korea. now even before we do something with that, because we are negotiating the trade deal with korea, we'll negotiate a fair deal or terminate the deal. >> well, of course, that horrified the globalists, but it got south korea's attention, big league. for months trump's team has been plugging away, you haven't heard a lot about it, as a total renegotiation of that agreement. the deal was approved in 2012 and used nafta as its framework. it's not that shocking that it turned out to be a completet nightmare. in the first five years since ih went into effect, our trade deficit with korea increased for all but one month, 59 out of 60 months. our auto sector was hardest hit, but others were as well.

last year korea shipped more than $16 billion worth of passenger cars here, but we sent only $1.5 billion worth of vehicles over there. yet today, korea announced it had made significant concessions to benefit u.s. automakers. while also they are capping the am of korean steel that can flood into ourur markets. for that they will get a partial exemption from trump's tariff. this is terrific news for american industry. it's also great news for our national security as well. it's removing obstacles tos cooperating and dealing with the north korean threat. it also shows us how trump uses leverage. you got to use leverage where you have it. tariffs are not a four-letter word. most presidents have used them. selectively, but they have used them. of course, the fake news, well, they prefer to ignore these substantive t issues, the ones

that matter, and all the progress trump has made for millions of americans? citizens who have seen their life destroyed, during the period of what, unchecked trade abuses. people who work for companies like dusty stevens. >> my father worked at the smelter for 40 years. he retired. my brother was laid off during the downturn, he didn't come back to work. this has directly affected our family, not only ours, and there is over 300 other families that affected by this downturn. now the trump administration has given it back to us. >> speaking for steel companies, aluminum companies, representing a lot of people. that's who turned out to vote for trump in 2016. they need him to keep challenging the washington

corrupt-ocrats and changing policies that do not work. while the left wing resistance it marinating in protests, the trump administration should sticky to first principles. it's a shame they blew it on the omnibus, but they are killing it on trade. what i laid out speaks to the disconnect that i have talked about for 15 years between the left and the rest of the country. now, while the media froths at the mouth over stormy daniels, tanningable results are being achieved that directly benefit you and your family. for all the talk about how motivated the democrats are, i'm telling you, this is true and key to the midterms. trump and the g.o.p. are about

results. the left today, at least, is about demigogery. the profanity, the anger, the nastiness, i don't think so. but conservatives need to counter this. they have to counter it with substance, thought and results. joining me now to discuss all this in the studio, dave bossy, fox news contributor and deputy manager of the trump campaign and an economics professor at the university of chicago and president obama's top economic adviser. all right, let's start with you, austin. i remember not so long ago the wall street journal wrote an editorial about you that was called austin's revenge. this was your revenge moment. you successfully, according to

the journal, convinced barack obama to abandon his campaign pledge to renegotiate nafta and they credited you with bringing the unbibled enthusiasm for free trade back to the mindset of barack obama. that's wow considering where we are today, austin. > congratulations to you on e hundredth show. >> we brought you on to celebrate. so good. >> the thing that's happening with donald trump, they had a record setting day on the stock market today. precisely because donald trump is not going to do the things that he has been promising to do. last week when they thought he was going to enact these trade war starting tariffs, the stock market had its worse week in years. steel tariffs are not a good idea. they destroy hundreds of

thousands -- >> austin, let me just jump in here.. these are the cliches we hear all the time. >> it's not a cliche. >> you are fine with every american steel manufacturer and aluminum manufacturer going out of business? you are fine with that, correct? >> no, no. >> we had 19 of the top 23 steel makers in the world 20 years ago. now we have three. >> i said putting in blanket steel tariffs. >> how do you get china to the table? how did we get china to the table? >> trump goes after chinese intellectual property, i'm for that. >> we got them to the table. >> that's how we got them to the table for this great day on the market. that's a fact. look, the last 25 years of president's failed policy, whether it's nafta, bad deals with south korea, they have cost

american jobs and h companies. that's what this president said. i made a promise during the campaign, i'm going to keep t promise made, promise kept. he's bringing them to the tablee with strong words. >> we have kimberly from the wall street journal. the word"t tariff, you might as well be burning crosses on people's lawns. but the journal hates tariffs. they think tariffs should never be instituted. i submit that the journal has been wrong on this issue for 25 years. these tariffs are what got europe paying attention, they are working with japan and us to put pressure on china, china is brought to the table, korea is brought to the table. our manufacturers are going to benefit and the world is taking notice. maybe we pull.. them back. but we had leverage and we used it. >> laura, what's the definition of trade, it's one country doing something with a competitive

advantage over the other. you trade because one can do it more cheaply than the other, they both benefit in the end. that's the idea. when you talk about some of these steel manufacturers going under, part was because we weren't doing as good a job and partly because of liberal policies imposing vast amounts of regulation and taxes on our companies. one of the most important things that donald trump has done since he came into office is deal with our domestic agenda and make it easier for manufactures, from an energy perspective and tamper respective to compete in the world.d. you want the rest of the world to play by a fair set of rules. >>l, i understand. trade is one country makes something cheaper. the problem with china the market influence and market domination they have been able to develop because of allowing nwto, permanent trade relation

status, they were able to manipulate the market. i would submit the marketplace was distorted by currency devaluation, but most importantly by cheating, dumping globally, not just dumping in the united states. >> we don't like cheaters. >> let's say you right, you probably are right, we ought to be for a policy that would reduce those other countries' barriers more than the u.s. that's whatha the tpp was goingo do. >> wait a second, austin -- >> they are signing on trade deals with china. they deal with china and not the united states. >> this president ran on a fair trade. he ran on being president of the united states and representing his country to the best of his ability. and tough talk, talking about tariffs, talking about ending these bad trade deals is what is

getting us, getting american workers back. >> more importantly, how many people remember when hillary argued about how much in favor she was of the tpp? nobody. how many remember when barack obama campaigned in favor of extending nafta? nobody. how many remember when the democrats get up in 2020 we are going to run for more trade deals. they all know that this is af winner. that's why obama was against nafta without renegotiation, hillary was not arguing to the tpp. this is all a big shell game for the democrats. they b claim to be for the litte guy, they argue they are going to be, they get into office, they have the trade policy. o you convinced them, austin, to knix it?s

>> that's why republicans led on trade policy. democrats will always cave in to unions and special interests. >> we are endorsing what you are calling the democratic position. >> i actually think democrats and republicans can work together on a lot of issues. >> here's the good news. what touch do is call out the truly rogue actors. the good news is -- >> we have to move to the tactics, so much is happening. i want to play a sound byte for the march for our lives, when the two most gun control activists spoke. >> i want a large voter>> registration turnout to happen l here. >> we are going to make this a voting issue. >> to those politicians that are supported by the nra, i say get your resume's ready.

>> who wrote that line? let's go to kimberly on that. this was supposedly about guns. i said a couple of weeks ago, this is about voter registration. your reaction to the weekend? >> what happened here, this is ane issue that many on the left have seized upon as a way of motivating their base to come out. i think the problem is while it does motivate some on thet democratic base, there are vast numbers of americans out there, laura, who appreciate not just the first amendment, but the second amendment, too, and we apply our bill of rights equally. some of the solutions that are being espoused by b those who showed up are not the answer to gun violence or broader violence in your community. >> we need to protect our

students. i have four kids in three different schools. but we need better background checks, we need mental health checks. those are important things that we can affect immediately. the legislative process is going to take a long time. >> austin, i think it was genius what they did in organizing this. i think republicans aren't all that good at the protest culture, they are not good at voter registration drives. i was impressed bit organization, the money that flowed in. >> who paid for it? >> go ahead. >> in my view the suburban districts, should there be universal background checks and more attention paid to mental health, that is an issue that favors democrats and favors a centerrist approach. >> they always hang their hat on that. >> 65 million americans own plenty of guns.

the father of omar mateen, it was justt revealed as an fbi informant. that's according to court documents, according to his widow. authorities killed him, but his widow is facing charges for obstruction of charges. an fbi special agent testified that omar's father was an fbiqu informant for more than a decade. and according to reporters in the courtroom, the agent also revealed the fbi was considering making omar himself anim informant. nice. despite the fact that the agency knew omar, had spoken out to friend and associates about having ties to terrorists organizations. it was a joke, i'm sure.

for moreni on this incredible story, let's foe t go to formerd detective. those terms don't capture it, i got say when i saw this, i thought of both of you, we got to get you on. terry, let's start with you. how is it we are just learning now about omar mateen? we hadn't heard much of him. but now we learned his father was an informant, they thought about recruiting omar himself, they found out about these mueseings about his connection to terrorists organizations. >> what surprised me most, we just now learn it. usually when you are in the lead up to a trial, you have to disclose everything you have that might be relevant to the defense. in this instance, they waited a long time. i can tell you this, within

minutes after the shooting at the nightclub and after his name was known, the fbi knew that omar mateen was connected, they would have done an index check and the fbi had prior interest with these people. that's not at all unusual. what i'm surprised about is that they would have decidedded in the lead up to this trial to not say anything about that until now. you can take big chances in waiting this long. as it turns out, the judge said, look, this is not relevant. this continues on. there is a lot of questions here. theth one glaring thing that cos to mind if he was an fbi informant during that time, the phrase was very points between 2005 and 2016, it's very possible he was providing information on something else and they decided we need to keep that part as quiet for as long as we can. ultimately, it was the prosecution team that had to make a decision and the d.o.j. of if and when they were going to reveal this.

today it was revealed. it makes you feel uneasy and a little hard to explain t thee average person would say that doesn't make sense. it's going to feed a lot of conspiracy theories. >> what affect might this have on local law enforcement, to be big-footed by the fbi on this? >> well, laura, it's my experience, i don't know if terry will agree, the fbi is rigid with investigative techniques, they do not like to share information. information is power and they prefer to keep ow all of it in house. boston bombing was a perfect example of that. they don't want to share information with metropolitan police departments. i look at this situation and the first question i have, he was an informant for what. and they are trying to recruit omar for what reason. so it's obvious that the fbi

felt that omar did have a connection to terrorism and that he could possibly, if they coull flip him, give him information they could on the wise not obtain. so not revealing this would be obvious, they don't know if they made a mistake or not, but they rather play it safe. >> i want to play a sound byte from director comey, june 13, 2016, about this matter. let's watch. >> we are also going to look hard at our own work to see if there is something we should have done something different. so far the honest answer is i don't think so. so far we think there is no indication that he was part of any kind of network. it is also not entirely clear just what terrorist group he aspired to support. >> wouldn't that have been the time, terry, for the director,

director comey, by the way, this was a presidential election year. let's not forget that, 2016. we were fudging a lot of stuff in 2012 when romney was running against obama with benghazi. the benghazi thing sticks in my mind, it wasn't a terror attack. now, we don't say his father was an w informant. imagine what trump would have done with that against hillary? >> there washa a day i would hae sat here after i got into the fbi, and you are absolutely right. this is just absurd. but it's hard to believe in this day in age and listening to comey, he knew at that point in time when he gave that press conference, as did sally yates, that he was a bureau informant.

i don't know why they chose not to say anything about that then. i believe they had already made a judgment that there is some reason that we can't bring this up, we can't trump this yet. we'll wait and let the prosecutors figure it out. i fronted one of those possible reasons, maybe he was reporting on something else. to go back to something mark said, i agree with him, ingr national security cases and especially since 9/11, but this goes all the way back to the days after watergate and the hearings and then fisa, we are talking about allnd the time, te fbi changed. it changed in dealing with national security issues and domestic terrorism. and we are still, in my opinion, paying a price for guidelines that aren't keeping up with what we are facing. >> mark, quickly to close it out. >> when i listen to terry talk and he's an fbi agent, the thing

that fbi director comey was commenting on is it's interesting that he is sure that they did not -- they were not involved in a network. but the network lives inside the brains of these terrorists. it's been 17 years since 9/11. i think they figured out how to not get on the radar a very large percentage of the time to still have contacts and be part of aon terrorist network. >> fantastic segment. s directly ahead, north korea's kim jung un leaves his country for the first time. and what might this mean for his potential meeting with president trump. stay there.

>> so much has happened. president trump announced he would personally meet with north korean leader.

according to reports, president trump will not be the first foreign lead tore take a meeting with rocket man. bloomberg news is reporting tha" kim is currently in china. his first foreign trip since taking power in 2011. trying to make sense of this, is this happening? let's bring in gordon chang. with me here in washington is harry. gordon, let's start with you. i read this today. i almost fell out of my chair. armored car procession going from north korea to china.ng are we all being pumped here? what's going on? >> there is no confirmation that kim jung un is in bay chick, but i believe he is. he's trying to pull the string on the north koreans. the first leader he wanted to

meet was south korea and then president trump. the optics are bad. kim jung un is a vessel. china does control north korea. really, right now, what we are seeing is the chinese telling north koreans, we got to do what we, the chinese, say. >> i'm going to be president for life, you come to me. this is a wild story. we are still wondering if this meeting with president trump will really happen. everybody freaked out when that was announced. this could be significant because it might involve the u.s. putting pressure on china tong help either smooth this ou, pave the way perhaps to a meeting, what are your thoughts? >> i think it's good the chinese have a role to play. there is h a bigger question. n is kim jung un panicking?

what do they get out of a negotiation with the united states, nothing. now the trump administration is demandingg they give up nuclear weapons, john bolton has made a lot of statements, the only negotiation is how are we going to pack up your nuclear weapons and bring them back totient. i have a feeling they could be in beijing to figure out how to get out of this. >> get out of the meeting? >> it's possible. >> let's talk about the thinking of both the chinese and north korea separately on bolton asri national security adviser. these staff shakeups might bore people, but they are watched in the middle east, watch in asia as well. bolton, neoconservative, hawk on the iraq war. what does north korea think? >> i think north korea is concerned that the united states is going to strike them.

a bloody nose or whatever. they understand that bolton is going to cut off north korea sales of weapons to, for instance, iran. this has been going on for decades. american administrations have not stopped t i think bolton is going to put an end to that. i'm sure the north koreans are concerned. also the chinese. the chinese have been aiding in this deadly trade. they are not goingng to like to see bolton in 1600 pennsylvania putting an end to their support for north korea. >> i think that's a hundred percent accurate. i think john bolton is north korea and china's worst nightmare. he's going to drive hard terms in terms of trade. the chinese have been doing a lot of damage to our economy. now that you have maximum pressure on north korea, you also have it on china. >> i had a friend text me, he

has done very well. and he's the global trade guy. he's petrified of john bolton. he thinks john bolton himself is going tolt blow up the world. i heard this from wall streeter after wall streeter. oh, my gosh. do you hear the same thing i hear? they are in a meltdown over john bolton. it's ludicrous. >> it is. that's the way people and the markets work. they don't want any disruption. bolton is important because what he's saying is, look, we got a china and russia problem. we got to deal with it. if we want to have a future, we have to make sure that the chinese and russians are not attacking our society which they have been doing. they have been trying to close off the global comments, trying to take territory from their neighbors, somee of which are or

treaty allies. it's important for the world to see beijing and moscow as it is. >> great segment. fantastic. the left assault on masculinity. you are l not going to miss this debate, coming up.

>> you look carefully, political

and media leaders are chipping away atad this idea of masculinity, what it means to be a man. check out this discussion of school shooters on msnbc. >> told to man up. what does that mean? >> no clue. >> show no emotion. >> what's the hardest part about growing up for boys? >> having the pain. >> not being able to express yourself. >> oh, my word. so the problem is masculinity. targeting isn't reserved for left wing cable shows. >> a lot of our problems are cause by old men. no offense, men who are old. >> he's not exactly a spring chicken. let's bring in liberal analyst,

i will not call you liberal analyst, i will call you an analyst who happens to be liberal.ra when i hear these atabs on masculinity, i hear the left equating masculine, what it means to be masculine with abusive or criminallality i.t. we are all against abuse, for me, you say someone is masculine, i don't see that. of course, i don't want that. no one i know wants that. it'sne okay for a man to, as friend of mine say, protect, provide and defend. most women i happen to know like men who like to do that. they carry themselves that way and that's what they think their role is. today in schools and discussions like we saw, that's considered icky.id that construct is oppressive.

why is that? >> i think that there's nothing necessarily wrong with a man who wants to protect and defend. i think that specific segment was talking about was the fact that rigid gender roles in boys are tied to higher rates of suicide, substance abuse, violence. so it's basically saying these gender roles are creating -- >> how is that connected? we have had gender roles for millennia. gender roles are causing boys to commit suicide. maybe there is a lot of society factors involved in drug abuse, in promiscity, addictions, violent video games, isolation.

men have been tending to be masculine for a long time. the masculinity causes them to do that. >> l in the feminist community,e talk about how fender roles tend to hold women back. but there is something that needs to be discussed how they hold men back. men are taught from a very young age that they are supposed to be unemotional,re supposed to be macho, supposed to be aggressive. they don't have healthy valves for an outlet of their anger, frustration, things they are experiencing in schools. it expresses itself and yes there are other factors that play here, but it expresses itself through violence and turning inward through depression, self-harm. i'm not saying it's the only cause. >> they make them feel like they are all predators. i know a lot of guys who work in a workplace, maybe it's lawyers

or businessmen and they feel like it's open season on them. these are good people.re we can't compliment anyone, they feel like literally, if they are 25 and single, they can't ask out a gal down the hallway for a drink because if they do, that's going to be considered somehow overly aggressive or abusive.gg i'm telling you, it's not easy to be a man in the current work environment or in the current society. >> it's harder to be a woman in the current work environment. >> that's for sure. that's a given. >> i think that perhaps these men are experiencing additional pressure, having to watch what they say, how they behave. it's a welcome change.om i wouldn't say that's one of the root causes of these increased self-harming and violent behaviors. gender roles play a part in

that. they create isolation, anger. >> we got to go. great segment. i have a question, over the weekend, why did they really march? coming up.

♪ >> laura:

>> this past weekend thousands took to the streets to march against gun violence. but when you press them, they confessed why they had really come. >> i think we need a complete ban. >> there need to be a ban onto assault weapons. >> so there was a consensus that assault weapons should be banned. how many of them actually knew what an assault weapon was? >> do you know what an assault weapon is? >> yeah, it's an assault weapon, it's like a -- i kind of do. but kind of don't. >> i guess, but assault weapons, like the same amount of people die by assault weapons, as do car crashes. >> it's not actually. >> isn't it similar?

>> assault weapons account for 3% of deaths. >> a lot of people die by gun deaths. >> the constitution is outdated. times have changed. i don't agree with the sec secod amendment. >> this is the problem with political theater lacking substance. they alawed for them. but what are they marching for, to repeal the second amendment? the truth is they don't know. one thing is clear after, watching that, they are marching to save lives, the political lives of these people. we'll be right back.
