"hannity" is encouraging breaking up devices and acid washing your hard drive. are they that stupid? >> laura: when you are encouraging people to bleach their hard drive, is it actual bleach on it? i don't know.

>> sean: i have a question for you. a serious one. i do not like this headline in the "new york times" that they took a year's worth of information from one of their reporters. that's troubling. that bothers me because this is freedom of the press now. i don't care if it's the "new york times." we know it's corrupt and they do a horrible job, but this is a dangerous, slippery slope. >> laura: i agree. they could shutdown voices of independent thought. they would do it. sean, fantastic show. good evening from washington. i am laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle." we have an unbelievable show tonight. you don't want to miss a minute. i will go head-to-head with reverend jesse jackson. we will debate the nfl protest now that kaepernick wants to force the president to testify in his lawsuit against the nfl. we learned when the ig report will be out.

the fbi and doj will be releasing it. next week. and it may cover much more than the hillary clinton email investigation. enticing. chuck grassley wants to find out if the fbi broke its own rule. the video you have to see to believe. a big city mayor celebrating over a policy that brings death and destruction. first, the dems and the porn star. that's the focus of tonight's "angle." >> ♪ >> laura: the news keeps getting better and better for the country and the guy leading it. today the government reported that jobless claims fell in june to their lowest level in 44 years. layoffs are way down. near a 50 year low. and 223,000 jobs were added to the economy in may.

voters are feeling the improvement in the economy and rewarding president trump with higher approval ratings. one poll has the president at 44% on par with reagan in 1982 and where obama was in 2010. pretty good. at the same time the president is trying to expand his base which is really smart. while making gains with african-americans, a dream of traditional republicans for a long time, this president might find some progress. unemployment at a record low for blacks and near record low for hispanics. great news. his administration is working really hard on prison reform which would have a positive effect on african-american families. after that nudge from the reality star kim kardashian, donald trump commuted the

sentence of alice johnson. a model prisoner serving a life sentence for drug conspiracy. she offered these words to president trump. >> thank you very much. i will be the one that will make you so proud. i hope my life will encourage him to do this for others. >> laura: putting the merits of this case aside for a moment, this is a really smart political move by the president. sharp! this may be sparking a conversation among black voters who are skeptical about the republican party. maybe more will give a second look to trump and his policies despite what certain proathletes and civil rights activists are saying about him. while republicans make inroads with new voters, what does the other party do? the party that once stood for

the working man has taken a radical turn. former bill clinton pollster told me this week. >> that's why i am so upset with the current direction of the democratic party. the progressive left is pushing the party farther and farther, re-distribute and resist. guaranteed jobs and guaranteed health care but no individual efficientive. >> laura: having abandoned the missed of the country, the democrats protect and defend fringe causes and individuals with no constituency like porn star stormy daniels. rudy giuliani a member of the president's legal team offered this personal appraisal of stormy daniels. >> i respect all human beings

but i don't respect a porn star the way i respect a career woman or a woman of substance or who has great respect for herself as a woman and a person and doesn't sell her body for sexual exploitation. >> laura: one could quibble whether he should have gone down this road at all, the morrell indigation including from the ladies of the "view" was over the top. >> first of all, i want to say we introduced stormy daniels on the show. no one anyone should question this woman's credibility. sex work is work. e it's consensual. the only industry where women make more money than men. >> [applauding]. >> we always had women who worked and worked on the streets. a lot of them have put their kids through college. they had incredible lives gone

on to do all kinds of stuff. the mere fact that you would make such a blanket statement about someone you don't know who does something you seemingly know nothing about, seems kind of shocking. >> laura: [laughing]. i don't know what to say about that. man, i am not often speechless. i am glad the left found a cause they can rally to. i don't remember them standing in support of another sister. melania trump or ivanka or sarah sanders. that comedian attacked her at the white house correspondents dinner. what about the women who claimed they were sex cruually abused b

president clinton. jennifer flowers made this charge. >> he came on to me that night. i told him to knock it off. he proceeded to continue to come on to me for 3 months. in hindsight it was definitely sexual harassment. i would like the me too movement to recognize and others who came out with claims of sexual harassment from bill clinton. >> laura: the women on the "view" had nothing to say about that. when chris cuomo broached the topic last night. here's the response he got. >> bill clinton, me too. >> not getting into that. >> because? >> i think it's irrelevant to what we need to talk about.

it's nice news but doesn't help the cause. >> laura: imagine if a republican said that, they would be run off televig. -- televig. the only woman worthy of the news is a porn star. these women were undone by his comments. >> what a pig. i feel strongly about these comments. they made my blood boil. this is a bad day for the president if this is the person the president wants speaking to him. >> this is a bad day for humanity. >> laura: come on, guys. imagine if after 4 years of college, you slog to put your daughter through school. and our daughters announced she

wanted to be a porn star or a stripper. what mother would not be making a value judgment about that vocational choice? oh, great, honey. that's fantastic! hanging off a stripper pole is a much better choice than business school. yay! the selective outrage and the twisted morality of the left never fails to amaze me. through all of this, the democrats have revealed themselves. with nonetheless to run on, they are the party of ms-13 not animals. transgender bathroom. nfl protests and let's throw in pot and the porn industry. you can put that on a bumper sticker? we will see how that plays in november. that's the "angle." let's find out what juan

williams from "the five" here on fox news and matt and an attorney from california. it's a bad day for humanity. you can't make a value judgment now about one profession over another. we as mothers don't ever do that. we do that every day our kid walks out the door when we look at what she is wearing. what do you make of the left getting unhinged about ruddy's comment? >> they are the party of ms-13 and the party of open worribord and pot legalization. they forgot about the men and

women the president promised to help. they have lost it. they have not been able in the mid-terms to articulate a message that is positive. they can only talk about the horrible extremes. it's a sad day when a porn star who lied and changed her story is the stander bearer of the left. come on, i think all people are equal and should be treated with respect. they could do better than to perpetuate this sideshow. it's not good for america. focus on bettering the lives of all citizens and not this garbage. >> laura: juan? >> i don't think anybody is lioning stormy daniels. rudy giuliani said she lacks credibility and he said she was selling her body. i think is all part of under-mining anybody who has been critical of president trump. the fact is that what we know is

that michael cohen said there was $130,000 paid. if there is an issue of credibility, it's the issue is the people who said no, we don't know anything about this payment. that's president trump on air force 1, to reporters. he is just going after her. i think when women respond, they respond because they say lots of people have posed for playboy or gq, you don't savage them and say you lack credibility. you lack intellect because you did that. >> laura: i see your point. rudy said we have to respect all people. he said he didn't have the same respect for someone who is a porn star or hangs off a stripper pole and trolls the

president across the country. big deal! we are all such little babies we can't make value judgments. the left makes value judgments if you don't repsych cycle. now they are upset if someone says being a biologyist is better choice. >> women should respected. >> laura: all women. >> i have 5 daughters. do i want them to be in the porn industry? i don't. >> laura: you are a horrible person apparently for saying that. that means you are a bad person. >> this is all of this me too movement. there are a lot of victims out

there. what i want to hear from the left is a conversation about all of the victims. what you hear are the ones that are politically convenient to talk about. the democrat party is not practical and it's radical and all about taking over the boy scouts or the church. that's why people connect to trump. not because he is a perfect person, but because he fights and he is candid and honest and making a big difference. >> laura: the economic news speaks for itself. this is a sound bite from nicole wallace on msnbc. you treat and regard women who support trump one way and every other woman, if you are anti-trump, you are held up on a pedestal. let's watch. >> you know more about the trump women than anyone. are they just the most stoic

human beings? are they dead inside. are they paid off? >> laura: are they dead inside? that's a lot more demeaning to a woman to say than to say, well, i don't agree with her. don't porn stars want to be looked at? isn't that part of being a porn star? >> don't look at me. >> laura: i am story. >> he is a married man and i love his wife. give him a break. >> laura: this whole thing is from crazy town. harvey, chime in on that one. go ahead. >> these people objectify our first lady lady. they get on their moral high

horse about a woman who lied on television. the double standard is clear. american people can't relate to the hatred and negativity. all the democrats have left is to call names and ridicule. samantaa bee said the most vile things. >> laura: she apologized. >> yes. >> laura: let's move on to what the voters are thinking. trump's numbers are up. he is now at 44%. not over 50. if we had a media that were slightly fair he would be at 57% or 55%. he is at 44%.

we have a chart shah shows what people are saying about who gets credit for the economy. trump is getting 49% credit for the economy. barack obama is getting 38%. juan williams? >> that's about right. donald trump has been in office a year and a half. eventually it will become his economy. the one who pulled us out of the recession was obama. we are seeing the continuing of a lot of obama policies. what you would hear -- >> laura: he is undoing obama's policies. >> no, no, no. the federal reserve policies with regard to getting our economy going. i don't think they have changed. you can talk about regulation. >> laura: the tax cuts. >> you have been going on tonight about democrats have no idea. let me tell you something. i think the tax cuts was supposed to be what republicans

had to run on in the mid-terms. more talk now about immigration, more talk now about nfl players kneeling. more of these hot button red meat issues. >> laura: i disagree. that's conventional wisdom. >> no, it's not. why are we talking about donald trump and stormy daniels without saying who was the one involved with the porn star? >> [overlapping talking]. >> the voters don't care about stormy daniels. they won't vote on stormed. -- stormy daniels. 2 years ago the right track and wrong track under obama was 25%. we are inching towards 40% for donald trump. if he gets to 40 plus this won't be a big blue wave, it would be a very good night for republicans. the american people are practical. they want jobs and economic prospects to improve and feel

safe in their homes and families. that's what is happening. >> laura: pot and porn industry, abortion, open borders and ms-13. >> what about health care? >> [overlapping talking]. e >> laura: they wrecked our health care and promised to keep our doctors. >> that's the same poll matt was talking about. the american people want something reasonable done with the health care issue. and want something done on education. the american people said obamacare failed us. >> look at the polls now. it will be a hot issue. >> laura: we are out of time. i think kathleen should run. >> doesn't she run a website? >> laura: the inspector general

>> ♪ >> ♪ >> laura: today we learned the

inspector general will rereese the report on the doj and the fbi one week from today. the ig will testify before the senate on the 18th. we have been told that the report would cover just the fbi's investigation of the hillary clinton email scandal but the ig report could be much broader. grassley titled it examining the inspector general's first report on justice department and fbi action in advance of the 2016 presidential election. a lot of ground to cover. with darrell issa and daniel goldman and lee smith. congressman, you have been around the block on this stuff. what gives? a broader report? why would grassley title it like that? >> first of all because michael horowitz has been around a long time and done a lot of

investigations of the problems in the department of justice in a previous administration that would not deal with those problems even with reported to congress. he will be asked questions we know from the past he can speak on. secondly, when you look at the indemic misconduct of comey including the apple scandal where he claimed you could not get information and it turned out not to be true or handling hillary clinton. it gets broad pretty quick. looking at other decisions including the fisa warrants. >> laura: lee, lots of things are bubbling up to the surface. this leak yesterday. to say that comey was

insubordinate is that a big bombshell? >> maybe it's been built up too much. there is an enormous amount to cover. that's may answer with senator grassley titled this. the public is keen and keeps hearing leaks and this is being pushed back and this is being blocked. i think they are either to get out a number of these things before it interferes too much with the election cycle. i think that's one of the key issues. >> laura: one issue that popped upshaw with papadopoulos. his wife said they were trying to entrap him and use him to push this investigation forward. what is your reaction to that? >> well, legally it's not entrapment. if there is any indication that

the individual is willing to do whatever the conduct it. i think she is using another definition of entrapment. george papadopoulos made some drunken comment to the australianambassador to the u.n. and that spurred further conversations. >> laura: initially it was reported that he knew there were a lot of clinton emails. then they backed off and said they had dirt on hillary. that story shifted. that's a big different, someone has dirt on hillary and someone knew emails were hacked and would be released. >> having spent 10 years in the department of justice and having cases reported on by the news media, about 50% was right. it's not necessarily the journalist's fault. sometimes the sources are too far removed. they don't have as much as the

information as you would like. let's not jump to conclusions. there was some indication that papadopoulos new that russia had information he was trying to get access to that. at that point it's incumbent on the fbi to investigate that to see if there is a national security risk. >> laura: you don't think anybody happened before that period of time? the text messages looking at trump and talking the luresed in. we don't know what that was about. that one unredacted text. that's weird stuff. maybe that's innocent. maybe they is lures all over the place. i want to play something for you about the informants. kevin who supervised the revitting of the rules for the

fbi joined us last week. >> an fbi can't just open a source and gather information. they have to abide by the guidelines. the guidelines are specific in counter intelligence investigations and when you are directing your source towards an american citizen. >> laura: the guy who rewrote the rules. >> when you said it's incumbent, that's hog wash. the fact is every single political campaign, the senate, house, presidential, they are all looking for dirt. they want it wherever they will get. it they pay for it. they hire attorneys. >> laura: hillary paid for the dossier. >> if the department of justice/fbi investigated every time there was a credible attempt to get dirt, you would be investigating hundreds and hundreds.

>> come on. it's different when the source of the information is a foreign country than if the source of the information is someone within the country. >> a vague allegation that there may be something is very different than well, we have russian intelligence. let's remember, in this case. at some point the department of justice knew that the dnc and hillary clinton were part of the source of that. >> long before the election. >> i am uncomfortable with the idea that the fbi is running an investigation based on what a campaign team member said overheard in a bar. i think that's peculiar. if we went to a bar and had a conversation and i am on a campaign and you are. the fbi says let's run an investigation on that guy, i think that's not what we want. >> laura: i see what lee is saying there. especially during a charged political season.

this was guy was like a minor dude. >> exactly. that's why you have to recognize -- >> laura: we don't know when it started. >> i am not talking about the timing. i would bet money when they started this investigation, they had no idea who was involved. they didn't think at the beginning it went to donald trump or that high. they were following a lead of a suspicious and specific statement that george papadopoulos gave to somebody else. they will chase that down as you would want them to do i think to make sure that there was nothing going on. >> laura: that trip to london in may of 2016, does that seem -- >> it's unclear what that is. we don't know what kind of mechanism that was transmited to the fbi.

the idea it came from the state department is an issue. >> laura: fantastic conversation. we are out of time. we are going to black in a minute. jesse jackson versus yours truly. don't miss it.

on with this nfl protest. do you think that the nfl lawsuit that kaepernick apparently is going to file his grievance would be a proper grounds to have donald trump the president of the united states testify and why? >> well, he is exercising his first amendment right to protest. this was really about police brutality that went unanswered. rodney king beaten nearly to death without conquences. people killed in new york without consenses. -- consequences. and [inaudible] in missouri. the kneeling was a peaceful protest. he was not trying to desecrate

the flag. we were on our knees appealing for the right to vote in 1965. there is nothing threatening about kneeling to the flag. >> laura: i get that. what does ha have to do with president trump testifying in a grievance against the nfl? >> he has convinced his constituents and the owners to put a penalty before the players if they choose to do that. >> laura: he has an opinion. >> it's more than his opinion because he is the president. no, no, no. >> laura: as a legal matter that's preposterous. the president is not going to testify in kaepernick's suit. his lawyer should be sanctioned.
