realized that they probably should not be promoting the violent death of a politician, and of the artist claimed it was about white supremacy. of course, it is what it is. it is changing fast. giving up, we are doing our best. thanks for a great hour. >> sean: tucker, great show as always. welcome to "hannity." we are watching history unfold right in front of our eyes. president trump just made a critical decision, announcing today that the united states will withdraw from that horribly flawed one-sided iranian nuclear deal. it america will no longer be held hostage by emma. just kept a huge of vital campaign promise. we will explain why history is on the president tsai. and meanwhile, significant diplomatic process continues to take place tonight here in the secretary of state, mike pompeo, he is now set to hold meetings

ahead of the presence of coming talks with kim jong-un. also, more bad, bad news. americans are now turning against robert mueller and his witch hunt investigation. plus, we have some rare developments out of the justice department and its ongoing obstruction of congress. and the ongoing war against president trump's pick to head of the cia. her name is gina. we will prove tonight why she is actually an american hero. we have all of this tonight and tonight's opening news monologue. all right, they have been put on notice, america will no longer be bowing down to their aggressive tactics. the days of blindly trusting and trying to bribe this rogue regime are now over. hours ago, president trump made of the courageous to pull the united states out of this very flawed iranian nuclear agreement.

let's take a look here. >> the iranian regime is the leading state sponsor of terror. the deal allowed i ran it to continue enriching uranium and overtime, reach the brink of a nuclear breakout. this disastrous deal gave this regime -- and it's a regime of great terror. many billions of dollars. some of it in actual cash. today, we have definitive proof that this iranian promise was all a lie. therefore, i am announcing today that the united states will withdraw from the iran at nuclear deal. >> sean: thank god. now, naturally, the iranian president, he responded with the throat saying that his rogue regime, they are ready to start enriching an unlimited amount of uranium if the secondary negotiations do not yield positive results.

now, this expression may have worked with obama, but not anymore. this is a new age of diplomacy, based on the concept that reagan taught us. peace through strength. it works. watch this. >> as we exit to the iran deal, we will be working with our allies to find our real comprehensive and lasting solution to the iranian nuclear threat. in the meantime, powerful sanctions will go into full effect. if the regime continues its nuclear aspirations, it will have bigger problems than it has ever had before. >> sean: it now, of course, if iran is serious about making the world a better place, immediately halting their effors to destroy the united states, there would still be time to negotiate. most u.s. sanctions will not be reinstated for another 90 days. oil related sanctions will take 180 days to come online. but let's be clear.

president trump is willing and ready to negotiate, just like he is with little rocket man. take a look. because the fact is, they are going to want to make a new and lasting deal. one that benefits all of iran and the iranian people. when they do, i am ready, willing, and able. great things can happen for ira iran. and great things can happen for the peace and stability that we all want in the middle east. to be one all right, it is really simple. if iran wants his people to prosper without the burden of u.s. sanctions, they just have to come to the table. now, the leaders of iran, they are corrupt, they are immoral, they are radical. this is a rogue theocracy, and their suffering people knew better. here is what president trump had to say about that very subject also earlier today in this historic speech. >> i want to deliver a message

to the suffering people of iran. the people of america stand with you. it has now been almost 40 years since this dictatorship seized power and took a proud nation hostage. most of iran's 80 million citizens has sadly never known and iran that prospered with its neighbors and demanded the -- john carey of course has been busy trying to undermine the trump administration by conducting a potentially illegal shutter diplomacy. he said the iran deal made our allies agree. released an incredibly boring a holier thou sanctimonious statement calling the president's decision misguided. we will spare you all those boring details. this country does not need it diplomatic input from a

president who oversaw the collapse of the middle east, the unfettered expansion of russian aggression, and a situation on the korean peninsula that was totally out of control. oh, and he gave them 150 billion. of course, while democrats are complaining, america's closest alley in the middle east, israel, is under a daily imminent threat from iraq. they are plotting the president's decision. here's what the israeli prime minister had to say about the present. >> fully supports president trump and his decision today to reject the disastrous nuclear deal with iran. i opposed it from the start because we said that rather than blocking iran, it actually paves the way to an entire arsenal. israel thinks that president trump did a historic

move. and this is why israel thanks president trump. his commitment to confront the terrorist regime in iran, and his commitment to ensure that it iran never gets nuclear weapons, not today, not in the decade, not ever. >> sean: it was just last week that the prime minister revealed iran's nuclear plan, continue to develop a weapon system that is capable of delivering nuclear warheads. still, way before he went public with this intelligence, president trump had promised it to scrap what a terrible deal he had inherited. he kept his promise. watch this. >> my number one priority is to dismantle the disastrous deal with iran. i have been in business a long time, i know dealmaking. and let me tell you, this deal is catastrophic. for america, for israel, and for the whole of the middle east.

this was just prior to the signing of the iran deal, which give back to iran $150 billion and gave us absolutely nothing. it will go down in history as one of the worst deals ever negotiated. never, ever ever in my life have i seen any transaction so incompetently negotiated as a deal with the iran. and i mean never. >> sean: not tonight, the president is fulfilling that very important campaign process after years of bowing down to dictators, kissing their rings, once again on the world stage of peace through strength. this is so important because if history has taught us anything, it is that appeasement never works. you may remember neville chamberlain. he was a british prime minister,

declaring peace and our time after caving in during negotiations after meeting hitler and munich. take a look. >> the settlements of the problem, which is now been achieved is in my view only the prelude to a larger settlement in which all of europe may find peace. >> sean: compare that to the great winston churchill, who voted to win at all costs. >> as i said to those who joined the government, i have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat. i will say it is to wage war by sea, land, or air. with all our might, with all the strength that god can give us.

to wage war against a monstrous tyranny. to never be in the lamentable catalogue of human crime. i can offer it in one word, victory. victory at all costs. the victory and spikes of all of this. no matter how long the road may be. without victory, there is no survival. >> sean: what an incredible order. and remember, during the bombing of britain, he went out amongst the people the entire time every day. and then of course, you have bill clinton. remember, he promised you that bribing north korea what prevents them from getting nuclear weapons. here's what he promised the american people. speak out this is a good deal for the united states. north korea will freeze up and dismantle its nuclear program. south korea and our other allies will be better protected. the entire world will be safer, as we slow the spread of nuclear

weapons. >> sean: of course, the deal, we now know is an utter and complete failure. it gives them cover to successfully develop their nuclear weapons. now, compare that to ronald reagan. he called the soviet union and evil empire. he demanded that's over that tl come down. his advisors that don't do it, he did it anyway. take a look. >> there is one side does the soviets can make that's would be unmistakable. it would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. if you seek fees, if you seek prosperity for the soviet union if you seek liberalization, come here to this gate, mr. gorbache mr. gorbachev, open this gate. tear down this wall. >> sean: and the wall came

down, indeed. the soviet union collapsed. the cold war effectively ended. sadly, all of what we just showed you was lost on president obama. he went out of his way to appease iran, sending them boatloads of cash and other currency. in what was an exchange for a simple unverifiable promise. oh, and they continue to spend of this. remember this. >> today, after two years of negotiations, the united states, together with our international partners, have achieved something that decades of animosity have not. a comprehensive long-term deal with iran that will prevented from obtaining a nuclear weapon. this deal demonstrates that american diplomacy can bring about real and meaningful chang change. change that makes our country and the world safer and more secure. this deal is also in line with a tradition of american leadershi leadership. >> sean: is very simple, sucking up to dictators doesn't

work. only peace through strength will work. now, this is playing out right before our eyes on the korean peninsula. they sharpened their sanctions. to send multiple strike groups to the area, pressured north korea's most important ally, china, and the president ramped up his rhetoric, even calling kim jong-un little rocket man. now, tonight, we are closer than we have ever been to achieve increase on the peninsula and the denuclearization of north korea. pompeo will be conducting investigations ahead of the upcoming meeting. we will bring you updates from these crucial talks as we get them. all right, but first, we have some new developments. according to brand-new poll, more americans now think it, so, robert mueller's witch hunt is a politically motivated. this comes as they continue to do his bidding. now, get this.

cbs, nbc, spending a combined 30 seconds on the recent beat down last friday of the special counsel investigation from a federal judge. and meanwhile, president trump's poll numbers, they are rising. this despite a new study showing that network news broadcasting in this country featured a negative stories about the president 90% of the time. wamac. and i have told you journalism is dead. breaking tonight, releasing the first report on russian election interference. the committee has now confirmed that no votes were changed by russia during the 2016 presidential election. we will continue to follow the story. and meanwhile, the popularity is winning. terms popularity is soaring. even more lawmakers are now pushing the department of justice to stop obstructing congress and comply with the rule of law. the house majority leader kevin mccarthy, steve scully's, they are now inching closer to

holding sessions in contempt of congress over the slow walk of the subpoenaed documents and their reactions. and of course, the claims that turned out not to be true. he will join us in a few minutes. but first, tonight, rod rosenstein, he may release previously redacted portions of the memo, outlining the mueller investigation. and this is important. i want to discuss the so-called firestorm around the pick for the cia. tomorrow, gina haspel, she is set to appear for what will be a pretty contentious confirmation hearing. the democrats, then media, and anyone who generally hates donald trump has been trashing this career cia official, slamming her treatment of terrorists after 9/11 when we lost 3,000 americans, and some alleging she was way too tough

with some of the world's most notorious killers. i have said it before. gina haspel and many people who have worked with her for decades, guess what? they say that she is without a doubt, an american hero. she is smart and brave and most importantly, or actions in the wake of 9/11 kept this country safe and brought justice to those people, those terrorists. look at usama bin laden. he is at the bottom of the sea. in part because of work from people like gina haspel. right here on this program told us that the terror terrorist programs -- led to bin laden. watch this. if you want in other words, you are saying that these techniques were used beyond what had already been disclosed. you are saying that that is false, and that despite the

suggestion that they were not successful, you are saying that that is not true. you were there. it was successful. >> it was very successful. for those of us who were there, it is just amazing that they could have come to this conclusion. those of us who led this, they know the value, and the destruction of the organization. >> sean: i know i look a lot younger there, but the point is that they need to confirm her as soon as possible. former deputy assistant to the present, fox news national security strategist. nra tv contributor dan bongino. we have got to start. the president keeps making promises and keeping them. the idea that you will suck up and bribe dictators, and if only we are a little bit nicer to them and give them $150 billion, then they will be nice to us.

well, prime minister netanyahu it blew that out of the water last week, and still, people want to stay in this bad deal. why? >> because they don't listen to the past. they don't understand history. i spent last sunday in new york with some holocaust survivors. let me quote a holocaust survivor on his lessons learned from world war ii. he had a very simple message. when a group of people repeatedly call for your destruction, sooner or later, to take them seriously. well, guess what iran has been doing since 1979? you don't give them pallets of cash. you don't sign a deal that really doesn't stop them acquiring nuclear weapons. you stop them from getting the weapons they wish to use against us and our friends like israel. the president knew this in his bones. that the deal would have to be killed. he just put it to 9-millimeter

bullets and its head. she once you know, i don't understand how we don't learn the lessons of history. the idea that you can negotiate or bribe dictators, bribe those that certain to destroy america, death to america, death to israel, and somehow money and bribery will work. they work in north korea, it didn't work in this deal, it is never going to work. and i think that the only reason that kim jong-un is now willing to talk is because the show of military force, the president good relationship with china, and to the fact that kim jong-un knew he was going to lose everything. >> yes, sean, a couple things. the iran deal first. you know, someone should have informed the iranians there was a deal. this was never a negotiation, it was a manipulation. they play to the administration for fools. i will ask you a simple question. let's get some common sense here. it dollars to doughnuts.

the iranians prevented us from looking at military installations to have those installations for the production of nuclear weapons. where the heck do you think they're going to produce a nuclear weapon? the local walmart? of course they're going to do it in the military installation. i mean, this is common sense. this was never a deal. the iranians never had any intention of sticking to this deal, and i applaud president trump for throwing to steal out the window. >> sean: let's talk about gina haspel. her personal commitment, and under my leadership of the cia will not restart the detention and interrogation program. i am assuming that means we are not going to have another event like 9/11, which i think created extraordinary circumstances. speak out nobody can make that statement. i think she's following the

decisions that have been made in the united states since that time. i have a specific view on this. i was a trained interrogator in the u.k. i'm not a massive fan of enhanced interrogation, but sometimes, when there is a ticking time bomb, and when you may be saving thousands of lives, then that decision might have to be taken. and remember, as you have told so many times to the american people, how many people were hung up during the interrogations in america? three. three. we are not talking about this. this is not some sort of labor camp, where we are just using this. the worst of the worst were compelled to give up information that saved lives. at the end of this. >> sean: at last word. >> yeah, i agree. i am not a big fan of that interrogation. budget standing for a long period of time, sleep deprivation, that sounds like a long day and the secret service,

where i used to work. so you know, liberals, give us all a break and let's define exactly what we are talking about. >> sean: all right, thank you both. a lot of breaking news tonight. when we come back, steve scalise, he is now here, turning up the heat and rightly so against jeff sessions. also, so much more tonight, as "hannity" continues. ♪ zach! talk to me. it's for the house. i got a job. it's okay. dad took care of us. here's something you should know. there's a serious virus out there that 1 in 30 boomers has, yet most don't even know it. a virus that's been almost forgotten.

it's hepatitis c. hep c can hide in the body for years without symptoms. left untreated it can lead to liver damage, even liver cancer. the only way to know if you have hep c is to ask your healthcare provider for the simple blood test. if you have hep c, it can be cured. for us, it's time to get tested. it's the only way to know for sure.

>> sean: this is a fox news alert. our own martha maccallum is in the fox election headquarters with the race call in the great state of ohio. >> the fox news decision desk it can now projected that germany seen, who was endorsed by president trump, defeat my gives in the buckeye state primary.

so this means that he will now move on to november, and he will challenge jaron brown come the fall. we are also of course watching the outcome in that west virginia primary. it is still too soon to call there. 43% of the vote is in. he is in the lead, jenkins is in second, but as i said, still waiting for more. when we get it, we will be right back with you. >> sean: what percentage of the vote is and in the west virginia race? >> is 43%. some of the southern areas are still outstanding. it is just a two-seam to call. >> sean: all right, martha, thank you. don't miss "the story." turning up the heat on the attorney general jeff sessions. to turn over documents related to the phony rush to mike rush appropriate. we want to list of lawmakers jumping in.

congressman >> president trump: joins us now. congressman, good to see you. i know you are in better health. i am very thankful, as many people are. you won't come right out and say it's time. why? >> well, first, thank you for the prayers and support. i appreciate it. getting better every day. i support what he is doing because what he has been doing has uncovered the truth, and frankly, there are a lot of things that we have already found. serious questions about what the fbi has done. there is more that we need to get information on, and look at, they are stonewalling him. i don't know why they are trying to hide information, but we are going to use every tool we have two get the facts, and ultimately solve this. >> sean: we know that he begged paul ryan not to release the information that ultimately became the nunez memo up to the final hour. we have reductions, we have claims of national security that have turned out to be false and

erroneous. congress has a constitutional role of oversight. they have a right to these documents. i know that the attorney general is recused, but this is congress' role, and they are not providing the information that they legitimately deserve. speak all right, congress' role is this that we have been carrying out. and if you look at what the chairman nunes has been doing, they have already uncovered a lot of things raising real serious concerns. but there is still more that we are >> right, congress' role is this doing in this investigation. and it chairman nunes ought to have every tool to get this confirmation, and we are going to get it. one way or another, the fbi and the department of justice are going to have to comply. but think about this. we have already raised serious questions about about apples at the fbi. they ought to be working with us to route these people out. why would they do things like this? this is one of the documents

that they sent over a period practically the entire page is redacted. this is ridiculous. so we are going to continue working and doing our job to get this information, and it chairman nunes has been doing a great job at uncovering more. let's think about this. this it shows you where the media wants to go with this. all day, they want to talk about russia and unrelated things. just posted new record numbers. we have the lowest unemployment right now sounds almost 20 years ago. it is always an indicator of what is going to happen in elections. we are at 57% right now. americans think that we are on the right track. >> sean: will you demand or support contempt? >> absolutely. whatever chairman nunes thinks is the right course of action to catch the facts out. i strongly support. we are going to get to the bottom of this one way or another. >> sean: 's congressman, glad you're feeling better. welcome back. and now, the illicit scheme to from donald trump, fox news

analyst gregg jarrett also here. joe digenova, full disclosure, he has done legal work for me in the past. he has been off my christmas party, we have broken bread together. and we actually join together. it send everything. all right. joe, let me start with you. this is too important. slow walking, reductions, lies about national security interests. like for example, what they redacted in the name of national security and that was jim comey's embarrassment last week. as it relates to the fbi is saying and never lie. that's a big deal. he served his country for 35 years. >> was clear to me, sean, is what congressman scalise said was very important. he said that he would support contempt against rod rosenstein, and if necessary, the

attorney general. because what is true now is that all of the reductions thus far that we have seen, the things that have been blanked out, have been things that are embarrassing to the fbi and the department of justice under barack obama. this has to stop right now. i don't know what's driving mr. rosenstein, except he is a classic at career man. he believes that nobody in the department of justice canada do -- no one there can do wrong. that of course is an absurd way to run a monster agency. with the fbi. >> sean: he is conflicted. he is witness number one why comey should have been fired. we know that he signed off on one of those subsequent applications, to spy on the trump campaign. >> not only that, but if the theory is correct, that when the president fired a james comey, he obstructed justice, then mr. rosenstein, who signs a memo, recommending the firing,

is a coconspirator. so not only is he a witness, he's a coconspirator. >> sean: you know, i've been very disappointed in the attorney general, gregg jarrett. >> you should be. >> sean: i should be because he has a role here. this is about separation of power. equal branches of government. congress has constitutional oversight, and they are stonewalling and obstructing. how long can they get away with this? and why doesn't he step up and say enough. handed over? to go the people that you trusted to enforce the law are breaking the law, it is time to clean house. that means that jeff sessions and rod rosenstein, contempt is a good start. we are allowing the fbi and the department of justice to redact to the documents they kept secret in order to cover up their own misconduct. and as you pointed out last friday, perfect example, they were covering up for james comey

and his eyes. they were also covering up for robert mueller because by virtue of those documents, we now know that he is prosecuting an innocent man, who fbi agents found told the truth, and yet, he has charged him with a lion. this is all a recipe for corruption. >> sean: i want to ask both of you, if only for the constraints of time, how many people -- we will start with you, greg, how many people are now in serious significant legal jeopardy? rod rosenstein has some big problems ahead of him. >> all of the people who have no other been fired or who have been forced to resign, that includes elliott, james comey, andrew mccabe, james baker, lisa page, we are still waiting for the demise of peter strzok, but that should be eminence. all these people are under investigation, and are in legal jeopardy. >> sean: all right, joe, same

question. >> i concur with that number. and i would say that rod rosenstein is in serious jeopardy of contempt. i think that he should be held in contempt. i believe that his arrogant statement that he was being extorted by congress, because they were demanding oversight of documents is so outrageous that he no longer should serve as deputy attorney general. >> sean: and with that beat down by the judge on friday, this has not been a good week for robert mueller and his witch hunt. joe, greg, thank you. when we come back it, we have breaking news out of washington. mike pompeo has now arrived in north korea. we will have a report and also update you on the primary elections. ♪ feel the clarity of non-drowsy

>> sean: a lot of big news coming out of washington tonight, including democrats now reacting to the president's decision to withdraw from the nuclear deal with iran.

also, secretary of state mike pompeo is now in north korea. joining is live from the white house, our own ed henry. no shortage of it -- this is really historic news. this is big news tonight. >> john, it really is, and president trump said today that this is not just about ripping apart things in the obama platform, it is about sending a message around the world to america's enemies, that unlike that redline that was not enforced in syria, that america now keeps his word. as you know, democrats reacting, charging that the president is undermining allies like the french president, who was just recently here at the present. lobbying to salvage the iran deal, while emboldening the iranian president. he said that he will not negotiate with allies on his own. if that doesn't work, iran is going to start enriching uranium more than ever before. well, the president fired back that if they go down that road, they will face bigger problems,

clearly hinting at the potential for u.s. military action on top of the tough u.s. sanctions that will start back up in the next 90 days now that we are out of the deal. and truck schumer was among the democrats who blasted the move, but the whole reason that they can terminate this is that the obama administration acted unilaterally, failed to get a vote in the senate on this, and in fact, many senior democrats actually use spoke out the iran deal in 2015. watch. >> the deal doesn't end iran's nuclear program, it preserves it. >> i will be honest, i was skeptical going in. there is nothing that i read last night that alleviates my skepticism. >> i'm disappointed in the steel for all of the reasons that have been brought up. >> i would support the disapproval of this agreement. >> as you know, secretly sent mike pompeo to north korea for the second time in recent weeks. charged today that pulling out

of the iran deal will make it harder for them to back out of the program, but others here at the white house insist that the hands of both pompeo has been strengthened. hoping to get confirmation for another team member. for cam member gina haspel. a democrats plan to express her on enhanced terror techniques. the sister of the pilot killed in a terror attacks. so she is glad that gina haspel was tough on terrorists. she added that the interrogations were lawful, and if barack obama had nominated gina haspel to be the first female cia director, she would have gotten put on an easy boat, rather than the harder road that the president is now facing. >> sean: all right, lots of breaking news tonight. joining us now, senior intelligence officer and fox news contributor daniel. welcome to the family. we appreciate you being here. i have never understood the mentality that says we are going

to give iranian leaders who chanted death to america and it does to israel, and funded terror around the world, and kill americans in iraq, $150 billion, that we would say pretty please with sugar on top, don't build a nuclear weapon. >> the president made it no secret about his concern with the deal. his disdain for the deal during the campaign. he has followed through. there are three really serious concerns that we all had about it, that it never addressed at the intercontinental ballistic missiles development. that there were causes that in a 14 years, they could have a breakout for nuclear weapons. and then that we provided them with sanction relief, so that they could continue to sponsor state terrorism. so how are allies respond and how we can go forward with this agreement, and i think in some

ways, frankly, it strengthens our hands in north korea because we are demonstrating that we are serious about a real deal, and we are going to hold in north korea accountable for the deal that suits our national security interest. >> sean: there is a submerging alliance that we have talked about, i don't think that anyone would have talked about it several months ago. with israel, saudi arabia, egypt, jordan, and the emirates, that is a massive opportunity for peace in the middle east is that we not seen in a long time. it probably going back before the u.n. partition plan in 1948. we got well, yeah, and i think that two reasons why we are seeing that are syria and yemen. we have wars going on with both of those failed states. and they are supporting elements in those countries, which are obviously very much against the saudis, and the rest of the gulf

states, as well as israel. and i think that those tensions, particularly in syria and yemen, heightening the discord, has made it that much more clear to all of us, that's we need to stop iran's efforts in the region. >> sean: all right, thank you for being with us. and by the way, john kerry, what he did by literally going rogue. his own diplomacy, just a disgrace. as we discussed last night. all right, more coming tonight. our deep state investigation. also, the discretion to mike and destruction of the department. that is next. stay with us. with the power of 335 turbo-charged horses the lincoln mkx, more horsepower than the lexus rx350 and a quiet interior from which to admire them.

>> sean: according to a new news poll at, 53% of you, the american people, now believe

this russian investigation is in fact politically motivated. investigative reporter sara carter and attorney, she is with victoria. victoria is with us. good to see you both. i think what's really important, as we go forward and look at all of this, if steve scalise and mccarthy are now getting on board and saying they will support devon daniels, and the freedom caucus, it sounds to me like contempt of congress ordered his forthcoming. >> it is. and they mean business. i have spoken with people on the hill who say that they will move forward with this. they believe that it jeff sessions will turn over those documents before a contempt order can be given. and i want to say something else about these statistics. 53% of americans now see this as being politically motivated. imagine if cnn, msnbc, all of the other news outlets were

actually reporting the truth, it would be something like 83% of americans because they are not being well informed. and i think it's very important now that congress continue to fight, to need to get the information out there, and not allow the doj and the fbi to hide behind this national security apparatus that they keep throwing up. because every time we have seen something unredacted, it does not affect our national security, and that's a fact. >> sean: when you go back to last friday, and looking out a judge to be so strong and so powerful i couldn't stop mueller steam, and for him to talk about oh, this is really not about paul manafort, this is really about getting information on donald trump and are trying to paul manafort to sing. and he may compose. to put the screws to paul

manafort. i have never witnessed anything like that. you know, the stinging defense did not rise to the level. >> just for the record, i have done some legal work for you, and i went to your christmas party, so let's get that out there. >> come to mike you came prepared. no, that judge is just the tip of the iceberg. i think that's what bothers me about this poll is that 52% still think that the president should cooperate and talk to mueller. now, listen, this isn't the way that it has played. this is not kumbaya and everyone hugs. this is serious business. let's just talk about the practical reasons why the president shouldn't do it. we can talk about the constitutional reasons at another time. but practically, look at the team. just a talking about the judges saying things about their tactics. this team is comprised of the

bigots against a donald trump. well, he was overturned 9-0 by his tactics. he was at hillary clinton's victory party the night of the election. most of them have donated to democrats, the latest higher by mueller has donated to democrats. not oh one donated to republicans. now, here is what this team can do. they can talk to donald trump, and say such and such happened the night of the g7 dinner, and then they talk to james comey, and he says that didn't happen. guess who that team is going to accuse of committing perjury, guess which one? you know what's going to happen. and look what they have done to michael flynn. when his agent came back and said that they did not think that he had been lying. >> sean: if i can interrupt

you for one second, we go to fox news election headquarters. we have martha maccallum standby, ready to make an important call and the ever important race for the u.s. senate. end of the presidents are weighing in on this. >> yeah, he certainly did. and we have all been watching this west virginia race very closely. it was very interesting. now projecting a winner. state attorney general patrick morrissey and will -- he comes in a distant third. we've got 71% of the vote in here. and he is just barely below 20%. so, obviously, this is a victory for president trump. he literally called it to block voting for him. he said it do not vote for him. he cannot beat the incumbent. he was known as the more conservative, most conservative person in this race. they held the mike i'll try to

be as trumpy as i could, but he is the one who emerges as a winner. >> sean: all right, fox news election headquarters. we are out of time for sarah and victoria. i apologize. when we come back to, we have our video of the day. nancy pelosi, scary preview of what it would be like if she had one mic and the midterms. you might take something for your heart... or joints. but do you take something for your brain. with an ingredient originally found in jellyfish, prevagen is the number one selling brain-health supplement in drug stores nationwide. prevagen. the name to remember.

♪ >> sean: you won't believe what nancy pelosi said she will do if democrats win back the house in november. take a look. >> they have a new ad that they put out after you said you thought you were going to win the majority that said the title was all at stake. it said that you would like to institute a single pale health care program and cancel, raise taxes i think they mean, rollback the tax cuts that they passed this year, what you think of that? speak of the second part there is accurate. >> sean: okay. they will take your money away. that's all the time we have left
