10:02 pm
2016. the dhs secretary, kirstjen nielsen, she made a major announcement about president trump's plan to secure the southern border. here's what she said. >> the president has directed the national guard personnel to be deployed to the southern border. the department of defense's unit has long supported the efforts of dhs to protect our nation's border. this includes ongoing counter narcotic missions, infrastructure construction, persistent surveillance operations, training, and aerial support throughout the western hemisphere. the department of defense is a longtime partner of the department of homeland security and i thank them for their support. while plans are being finalized, it is our expectationna that the national guard will deploy personnel in support of the border security mission. >> sean: tonight, we have learned that president trump has signed a proclamation to send a national guard to the southern border. the president, he deserves a lot of credit because if congress won't lift a finger to solve the problem, then he is going tond
10:03 pm
take the steps as commander in chief and do it on his own, which he now has. before the liberal media, all you leftist out there, start losing your collective minds over the national guard being deployed to the southern border, with all due respect, we will educate you. there is already president for all of this. george w. bush and barack obama, they actually did the exact same thing. president trump star frederick calling for mexico to disband this caravan, ass you see come p asylum-seekers, heading for the u.s. border, that's also working. according to reports, the thousand person caravan has now fallen apart.. leaders of the group are now saying they will no longer had for america's southern border. this is the start of good news for the president. look at this. a brand-new rasmussen poll. his approval rating is now 51%, which is higher than barack obama's during the exact same time in his presidency. he was only a 46%. then he got reelected with the liberal media probably won't be
10:04 pm
telling you that tonight. they are too busy orchestrating an onslaught of any negative story that they possibly can find, obsessing over, oh, stormy daniels and drop-russia collusion, russia-tomah, russia, russia. theren' is a fake news cnn poll, shows president trump making major gains with four key groups, eight points with men since february, five points with younger voters, nine points with middle-aged voters, and he's up by ten points with college graduates. s here's what is so interesting about these polls. just imagine if the president wasn't constantly under attack from a media that wants to destroy him. imagine if robert mueller and his team of democratic donors weren't carrying out their never ending witch hunt. don't you think the president's poll numbers would be a lot higher if a majority of the country wasn't being fed an endless stream of outright lies, propaganda, distortion, misinformation? despite all of that, president trump is rolling along
10:05 pm
doing his job every day, the job that you elected him to do. look at this, manufacturing. this is good news. by the way, for the media to be so successful in their attack against trump, they are kind of cheering against the country succeeding. the strongest in three years. adp, moody's analytics, they are now saying that 241,000 jobs created in march and that is on top of the record low unemployment levels that we now have. over 3 million jobs created since donald trump's election. by the way, the lowest unemployment numbers ever for african-americans and hispanic americans.t look at this, home equity at a recordll level $5.4 trillion. the president is also taking a big step. this is amazing, nobody ever reports it, to make health care more affordable for everybody and getting around some of the devastating obamacare mandates. there is an op-ed in "usa today," explains how the trump administration is now set to lay out a new world. they are about to implement it.
10:06 pm
it will lower the cost, create choices by expanding association health plans. these plans allow businesses and trade associations to come together, buy health insurance plans in bulk. that saves a ton of money. by the way, a huge development. more care for less money. the president also is taking steps to reduce the bloat, that $1.3 trillion omnibus spending bill that no one likes? thank god he reluctantly signed it, now this is the build of the president threatened to veto. remember, he was forced to sign it because congress left town, they are too lazy.s the white house is looking into using what is known as the impoundment control act. it's a law from 1974 that gives the president the authority to cancel spending already approved by congress. by the way, they only need 51 votes in the senate, mitch. congress would have 45 days to approve the president's request to cut from the massive spending bill. again, keeping the promise.
10:07 pm
let's hope that happens. on top of all of this, look at this, the side of your screen, a list of the president's accomplishments. the heritage foundation, they did a study, the president's first year, they found he has already accomplished 64% of his agenda, which by the way, is higher than ronald reagan's 49% of the same time in his presidency. these are real, tangible achievements that help the forgotten men and women that voted in november of 2016 that the liberal media will never talk about because they never want to give the president credit for anything. as we have been explaining, president trump is just on fire and it's time for congressional republicans to follow suit. time to get a backbone for your time to theirr promises. no more waiting around. "let's see what happens in 2018. a staff or members of the g.o.p. to keep their word, keep their promises, and that means they should build the southern wall. they should keep the seven year
10:08 pm
promised to repeal and replace obamacare. you know, things that they all said and promised when they were campaigning. i here's what's going to happen to republicans who don't keep their promises. democrats are going to try to systematically undone every sine one of those accomplishments, we'll put them back on the screen.i nancy pelosi has already threatened that she is going to try and repeal the tax cuts that benefit 90% of americans. by the way, you keep going, nancy, good job, don't stop. stay on message.re it's up to congressional republicans to show some backbone, some spine, and actually fight for the president's agenda that you voted for. now former house oversight committee chairman jason chaffetz, he is going toe join s in a few minutes. heut is out with a list of ten things that congress should be doing right now. in the article, he suggests congress should explain and clarify the conflicts of interest on special counsel mueller's team. i don't think there is an explanation. they should formally demand theo appointment of a second special prosecutor with the power to
10:09 pm
prosecute, call fisa court judges to come before congress. call attorney general jeff sessions to testify about outstandingg congressional subpoenas, hold hearings on securing our borders, fortifying them with a wall, and then pass legislation allowing the president to reallocate funds from the dod. of course, oakland mayor libby schaaf, she should be called to testify. facebook mark zuckerberg and twitters jack dorsey, they should be called to testify about this speech suppression practices against conservatives. zuckerberg will testify before lawmakers next week aboutly cambridge analytics. congress, by the way, should make an effort reform the broker and budget process.ot they should give states the option and finally the senate should refuse to recess until every single one of the the presidents appointees have been voted on. mitch, time to work.
10:10 pm
anyway, congressman chaffetz will be here in a minute. but first, we have more breaking news tonight. house until committee chairman devin nunes, he has sent a letter to the deputy attorney general rod rosenstein and the fbi director christopher wray. he is blasting the repeated stonewalling by the department of justice, which is being led by rosenstein in refusing continually to hand over documents that have been subpoenaed by congress. remember, rosenstein is the guy that ran into paul ryan's office back in january at the last hour, begging speaker ryan to block congressman nunes' request fors documents about the fisa abuses in a dossier.we we would not have learned that had paul ryan capitulated. without those documents, there never wouldum have been a nunes memo. we would not know about any of the massive scandals that we are talking about every night unfolding like the fisa abuse, lying to judges to get a warrant, to spy on a trump campaign t associate. in that case, carter page. rod rosenstein, why does he want to keep all of this a secret?
10:11 pm
he want to protect all his corrupt friends? now after months of obstructing, chairman nunes is demanding answers. by the way, nunes has been asking for documents, some go back to august of 2017. rod, hand of the documents over to the american t people. that is how ridiculous this entire process is. and nunes is now requesting theo doj do their job and of course congress has their job, we have checks and balances. we have coequal branches of government. the doj turnover the unredacted version of an fbi memo related to the bureau's opening of the russian investigation. nunes has set a deadline, april 11th. given what we have seen, it will be a long time before the house intel committee gets to see this. the level of obstruction and protection, the incestuous nature of their relationships, this is beyond disgraceful. rosenstein has done everything possible that he can do to prevent congress from doing their job, which is oversight.
10:12 pm
they have a constitutional -- not only right, but duty to do so. tonight, it is time for rod rosenstein to stop hiding the truth from the american people. his boss is the attorney general jeff sessions. jeff sessions rightly said last week that he's angry at the slow pace that these documents are being turned over. you know what? the attorney general needs to do something about it. if the attorney general is angry, he needs to take action and force the deputy ag rosenstein to do his job. if rosenstein doesn't want to, then he needs to go, because that is how our government is supposed to work. congress needs to be able to get answers on behalf ofab you, we w see corruption at the highest levels of government. then you got a corrupt media, well,aj they are in major denia. that a is -- they are beside themselves are reports of president trump not currently not a target of the special
10:13 pm
counsel robert mueller's corrupt investigation. despite this new development, the media is desperate, they are holding out hope, they are on their knees, they are praying to god that somehow, someway, robert mueller will still find a way to make donald trump a target and go after the president. think through this. has that ever happened? is that good for the country? is that good f for the forgotten men and women of the country, is that create jobs, does that get people out of poverty and awful food stamps? now. is c it keep a secret? now. do they seem to care? no. take a look. >> a subject of interest to the grand jury, i can also mean someone who is on the road to being charged with a crime. >> it is the big deal to be under criminal investigation by the fbi, particularly if you are president of the united states. >> certainly being a subject, they shouldn't be cracking open any champagne in the white house if he is a subject of an investigation. >> a target or somebody they will indict and the president, by the policy, cannot be and i
10:14 pm
did. so it's a little vague what they mean. it may be to make mr. trump relax. >> if someone walked into my office and said, i was a subject of a multiyear criminal investigation led by former fbi director robert mueller, i would wet my pants. think of the nontarget n letter isn't worth the paper that it's printed on because the prosecutor can just decide to days after he writes the letter that he wants -- now he's made up his mind to charge them. >> you can't help but think it is strategic. tell him he's a subject, he likes being a subject. [laughs] >> we will discuss with some people have experience in this just how often that occurs, it's a little bit of shaming when they are t addressed on the vere of switching you into target. they still say you are subject to. >> sean: they've been saying this for 18 months. the media is not even trying to hide their bias. they want the president impeached. they won't stop until it happens. here's the thing. the media has been flat out wrong about everything regarding the russian investigation.. constitutional law expert
10:15 pm
jonathan turley, democrat, is scolding me abusively biased media.ut in a new op-ed. here's the headline. "when will the media except that trump is not a target." here is what he told earlieraccallum tonight. take a look. >> we went through a long period where people talked about collusion as if there was some federal crime called collusion. and then that morphed into obstruction. then it morphed into things like campaign finance violations or other issues. all these crimes have elements. they have president. you have to satisfy those. and you and i talked, there are areas that should be of great concern for president trump. these crimes have not strengthened over time. you know, when sph, before comey was fired, he told trump that he was not a target of that
10:16 pm
investigation. it appears that nothing has changed after over a year. >> sean: you o would think that after a year of conducting a witch hunt that mueller might have something on president trump but soo n far ts is not appear to be the case. not to mention, by the way, this is something the media refuses to accept, as constitutional law professor alan dershowitz is explaining, this is rough for the media to handle. crime.on is not a he'll join us later tonight along with joe digenova. but first, joining us now, top story, fox news contributor jason chaffetz. i am holding this in my hand. this was a brilliant idea. ten things congress should do but won't. and i read this and i am saying, why wouldn't they, especially in light of everything i just laid out that the president is doing, troops to the border, helping on health care, going to go back to the omnibus bill. everything he is doing, why don't the republicans want to do these things? wants to playp offense but i can tell you having left congress about two
10:17 pm
weeks after, there is a whole new clarity that settles down on you and until republicans, who've been given the mantle of power, they were elected to put in office to put things done, until they play offense, they will be on the receiving end of a tax. to be they were to do the simple things, fully fund the border wall and begin the construction, the monies they are, and i still think the president can get it from the doj, if they would repeal obamacare, like they said they would, and the president has a great idea with the association, why do i believe that is good politics? everyone is worriedve about the blue wave in 2018. that would mitigate the blue wave. >> does do what you say what you are going to do.ve if they were just do that, and do it in a proactive way. jim jordan talks a lot about this. this is what the american people elected yesterday. let's try it and see what happens. >> sean: let me ask -- that is how i see it. is. see hillary clinton, she fid the primary. i'm the only person in the world who cares about bernie sanders.
10:18 pm
that is kind of corrupt. then hillary clinton, okay, she deletes 33,000 emails, she acidt wash is a hard drive, bleach but, then she takes hammers, having people taking hammers and busting up these devices, then the fix is in with peter strzok, comey, paige, mccabe, and loretta lynch on the tarmac meeting. and they did not interview -- writing and exoneration months before the investigation, the interview character days later,y exonerate her, then you have a dossier and lying to fisa court judges. >> you have to understand that toector iran want president-elect drop and said, there is this dossier, it's unverified -- >> sean: january 2017. >> here is this bogus thing. meanwhile, he had signed his name off -- >> sean: three months earlier. >> and presenting to the court. i wasn't good enough to presented to the court?nt and suddenly he's making excuses
10:19 pm
for it. that is something that both sides of the aisle should be looking at. >> sean: is not a crime? in othert words, i've got to believe that james comey is in a heap of trouble between leaking this information that was supposednd to be confidential ad privileged with the president. then of course what he did to get specialal counsel appointed. then he's got this issue, then he's working to exonerate hillary, he lays out a 13 and a half minute case and it says never mind. ile think he's in trouble legal. do you? >> he had john ratcliffe in the house judiciary committee asked him point blank, when did you make this decision? only to find out later, months later, the revelation, they started writing this exoneration months before director iran actually stood up in july of 2016 and said, we don't find anything there there. i think he is in deep legal trouble. that is why you need a second special counsel because the fbi cannot investigate itself. >> sean: have you ever seen such corruption? >> i haven't done it scares me.
10:20 pm
it's at the highest levels. there is 110,000 people at the department of justice and they are good, hardworking, patriotic people. a >> sean: same with the fbi. it is not the rank and file. >> you got the head of the beast here a, and you look at people n the seniormost positions, what is different in the electronic age, we have text messages and emails, remember when the fbi said, we can't find five months worth -- >> sean: but hillary clinton to doo with the handcuffs? >> sean: >> i would be in jail. >> sean: i would take a cake with a file. but i look at all of this -- have you ever heard of an fbi director taking a case away from a field office, putting it into a special category, and writing and exoneration months before you investigate or talk to the key witness? >> and then you combine that with the people and what is going on with robert mueller now. one of the things i put on my list of ten is that they should actually bring up and they
10:21 pm

10:27 pm
rosenstein authorizing him to investigate collusion with the russians by paul manafort. you can't investigate sins. you can onlyan investigate fedel crimes. there is no such federal crime as collusion. >> sean: how do they not know that? >> they know it. but they hope that by investigating collusion, they'll gete, somebody to obstruct justice, to commit perjury, to commit one of these other peripheraln crimes, as they always say, but it's not "the cover up," it's that it they are trying to induce a cover up, which is why innocent people should not be testifying unless they absolutely have to because you can be indicted for perjury even if you tell the truth, if youet say something that someboy else says differently. >> sean: that is a spectacular statement. you can be indicted for perjury if you tell the truth. >> if somebody part, contradicts you and the prosecutor believes the person who contradicts, you are indicted. >> sean: i will get back totr that question in a second. let me go to joe digenova.
10:28 pm
joe, rod rosenstein issues this letter to mueller allowing him to go after paul manafort the way he did. a week after they did the radio. why do i think the order of that legally needs to be reversed? >> let's say this first of all about rod rosenstein. his conduct from the beginning of this has been a disgrace, legally and every other way. he is an embarrassment to the administration. it is truly too bad that he cannot be fired. let's be very clear about this. the president has never been a target. the fact that he has been recently notified that he is a subject means absolutely nothing. he is not even a subject. he is a weaponized. a subject is a person whose conduct is within the scope of the grand jury's investigation. what does that mean? it meansat they have nothing on him. there have been 19 criminal cases, not one piece of evidence against the president of the united states, and now we are told that mueller wants to interview the president of the
10:29 pm
united states who knows nothing, who has been a witness to nothing, who is not a target of the investigation. what we are seeing now is conduct by two public officials, robert mueller and rod rosenstein, that is unethical, unprofessional, and embarrassment to the united states government, and is undermining equal enforcement of the law because of what they are doing to to a president of the united states. rod rosenstein single-handedly has taken away from the sitting president of united states 16 months of his presidency by his incompetence and fearful conduct.yo you know i rod rosenstein appointed muller? because he didn't want to maketo the tough decisions that you'd have to make if you were supervising a case being run by a united states attorney like john huber. rod rosenstein is a coward. he is a disgrace to the to the department of justice. it's a shame -- >> sean: and you can't fire him. >> it's amazing that he hasn't
10:30 pm
been recused. after all, he is the main witness on whether or not collusion, or whether or not obstruction of justice occurred with the firing of comey. >> sean: doesn't he have an absolute right tot fire anyone? >> he does. politically, there's a difference between him having a right to do it and it being like to do it. he is right that they haveep deprived the president of the opportunity to govern but the republicans did the same thing to clinton. when theyy impeached him, they knew they would never -- >> sean: years into his presidency. >> they made a mistake and they pay to have a consequence. i think the democrats would pay a heavy cost if they made this day mistake trying to impeach without being able to remove. >> i want to say something about the notion that mueller wants to question the president. what does he want to question him about? questioning him about the fire of iran?

10:32 pm
comey, his answer is, you are not allowed to ask me a question, any articles or decisionor i make. just like you can't question senators and their vote, you can't question justices for their vote. if i acted within the authority of article two, i cannot be compelled or asked why i did so. >> sean: would you advise this president to say no to any interview? >> i'm not advising the president. >> sean: would you advisee the president to say no? >> i would suggest it would be best if the president refused to answer certain questions that intruded on his article two powers. >> the president should not agree to an interview in my opinion.iv i'm not giving him legal advice, i'm talking on this show. the president should, at the most, answer written questions in a very limited area, and he should never, ever be interviewed. this is an abomination. >> sean: even if it means a year-long fight? >> that battle should be waged. >> in my opinion, the president should not sit down for an interview.
10:33 pm
he can answer written questions in a very limited area, maybe ten, 12 questions. >> but if he subpoenaed in front of the grand jury? >> i think what you do at that point is you have to argue article two and if bob mueller wants to take the president of the united states, who is not involved in any of the 19 charges that he has brought thus far, into a court over testimony, i think that that would be one of the most disgraceful periods in american history. absolutely outrageous. >> sean: you guys are amazing. i want you guys on every night. this is really important commentary. thank you both. >> and it's rare that joe and i agree. today we agree. >> today is perfection. >> sean: guys, thank you both. whenen we come back -- "roseanne"'s ratings up the charts. it is time for the media and hollywood to maybe look look ar ongoing attack against conservatives? joe concha, larry elder, more. a lot of news is straight ahead. ♪

you could be first lady of the united states. >> sean: jimmy kimmel, i will tell you something. what are disgrace.er mr. campbell, that is her fifth language. how many do you speak? joining us now, "the hill"'s joe concha, and larry elder. i don't know who is smiling more. i'll be honest, leave the women and children along. ivanka, baron, melania, stop. at some point, you've got to be head and. >> afirst ladies barely get attacked, whether it be michelle obama, whether it be a bush -- >> sean: michelle obama, when she said for the first time in my adult life i am part of my come down my country, she interjected herself into politics and that was outrageous. >> the favorability rating of her was 54% in gallup. you want to attacker? no upside to this whatsoever.
10:41 pm
>> sean: i just find this part insulting. especially, she is an extraordinarily bright woman, she's reading a children's book, something that first ladies do. michelle obama did it as well. and if you are not injecting yourself into politics, larry, why? what's the point? >> i consider the trumps to be pretty tough people and melania to be pretty tough as well. she speaks five languages. i'm pretty sure whatever jimmy kimmel said, she will shine it on. your bigger question is whether or not the "roseanne" success will cause hollywood to rethink its dysfunction toward conservatismsm and donald trump? hardly. 90% of hollywood's political money goes to the left. you look at people like steve colbert, sean, his numbers go up when he started attacking donald trump. >> sean: i don't care what they say about donald trump. i think that is fair game. he is the president. fair game. but if you go really low and petty like that, i just i don't know. whatat do you think?
10:42 pm
>> i think that this is nothing new. and i think that actually what we are seeing now is donald trump, the president, and melania trump, v are being made to be synthetic figures. and then i look at the rcp average of polls, realclearpolitics. people don't know what rcp is -- jargon. since december, the president is up five points in that poll. considering how polarized to this country is in considering how overwhelming theo media is, to jump five points -- >> sean: what do you think a "roseanne" success, larry elder? >> it shows you there is a marketeo for people that don't t their point of view insulted. there isis a whole group of peoe that want to kick back, eat some popcorn, drink a beer, not have their views insulted. that is what this show is showing. sean, one of the principal
10:43 pm
writers of this show is wanda sykes, who is a trump basher. i'm not sure if the trump is all that conservative. don't insult me. don't you mean me. >> sean: so i did this one will be project, which i'm proud of, "let there be light come extraordinarily -- we hadny no support of any studio. i could only imagine when that movie came out, the movie "paul" to schemata. there is an opening here. >> an untapped audience, a niche audience called half the country? [laughs] >> sean: the numbers around "roseanne" are remarkable. first of all, the second week it is down 15 million. would you compare that to the emmy awards, the one-trick pony, it only did 12. it's doingng better than the emmys. it almost -- this is work it's really good. in tulsa, cincinnati, and kansas city,e those were the top three cities for "roseanne"'s opening week. in new york, it didn't even

10:51 pm
>> i understand the concept. people voted and thought their votes will be counted. >> sean: hui arbor a constitutional republic with an established system that is the electoral college for electing a president. let's put up the excuses hillary again, dr. gorka. she has a different excuse. there are something that i've noticed that happens to presidentialti candidates that lose. they lose their minds because theyoi never think they're going to lose. i think hillary thought it was a done deal. >> everybody did. james comey thought it was a done deal, right? rod rosenstein, andrew mccabe thought it was a done deal. they all dead, that is why they cooked the books. look, this is just so -- you have to laugh because it is so pathetic and sad. i didn't know we were so powerful at fox, sean, that we can impeach somebody who is a private citizen. >> sean: if that were true, obama wouldn't i have won becaue i tried my hardest both times. >> you can only impeach public

officials, she's not even going to run for county dogcatcher. she's a safe from impeachment. but just to the mind-blowing aspect of how she is totally incapable of seeing just 1 to once she lost because who she i is. sean, she said misogyny. the misogynists made her lose. she's a misogynist. in india, she insulted half the american women by saying, they only voted for trump because their daddy t told them to or te husband told them to. >> sean: she's a misogynist. >> sean: here's a question i have. do you like bernie sanders? >> h i'm sure he's a nice perso. >> sean: what do you think about hillary disenfranchising every bernie sanders folder because donna brazile said the fix was in? it wasto rigged? does not say anything to you about hillary? >> you're okay with rigging?

>> i'm not okay with happened with donna brazile, not okay with anything that has happened there. hillary does make some great points. >> sean:ct does it bother you that hillary paid for what ostensibly became russian propaganda, government lies, to influence the general election? >> another question, is it okay for the fbi to interject itself into -- i thought i had a great question. >> sean: i'm the host. >> i'm sorry. >> sean: there's an order here here.. dr. gorka, i think the idea that she paid for russian lies after she stole the primary speaks volumes. >> not only did she steal the primary from uncle bernie, the fact is, she was facilitating the most successful russian information operation in the history of the russian system. >> sean: guys, thank you both. good to see you. wow. whenou we come back, fake news n
