tv The Ingraham Angle FOX News June 25, 2018 11:00pm-12:00am PDT
11:00 pm
never miss an episode, we are not them, and we never will be. let not your heart be troubled, yes, it is time. she's standing by in our nation's capital, laura ingraham. >> laura: a good evening from washington, i am laura ingraham, this is "the ingraham angle." organized focus of tonight's angle. remember in 2009 when president obama was speaking at notre dame and he said this about the need for civil discourse? >> as citizens of a vibrant and very democracy, how do we engage in vigorous debate? how does each of us remain firm in our principles and fight for what we consider right? without, as father john said it, demonizing those with just as strongly held convictions on the
11:01 pm
other side. >> laura: what a nice sentiment. but where is he tonight. what does he say about the threats about against the trump administration? somehow the democrats went from hope and a change to, nope, and deranged. over the weekend to come up the owner of the lexington virginia eatery, you probably heard about it, called the red hen did something pretty incredible. she asked how spokesperson sarah sanders to leave the restaurant simply because she worked for trump. the owner of the red hen told "the washington post," i have a business and i want the business to thrive. this feels like the moment in our democracy where people have to make uncomfortable actions and decisions to uphold their morals. so, miss morality and walked sarah huckabee outside and told her that the red hen has "certain standards that i feel i have to hold."
11:02 pm
honesty, compassion and cooperation. and she invited huckabee to leave which the white house press secretary did. huckabee returned home with her husband for the rest of the family went to another restaurant across the street. that didn't stop wilkinson or her crusade to drive conservatives. apparently from establishments, even ones she doesn't run, in the same time. governor mike huckabee was on my radio show today. >> that's part of that story that hasn't been told and you will be the first to hear it. sarah and her husband just went home, they had sort of had enough. but the rest of her family went across the street to a different restaurant. the owner of the red hen, because nobody has told this, then followed them across the street, called people and organize a protest, yelling and screaming outside from outside of the other restaurant. >> laura: publicly shaming conservatives into targeting them in public. that's become the new tactic of
11:03 pm
the left. it's not enough to malign them for their belief and position, now they have to be publicly humiliated, including their families and, you bet, they are small children. incidentally, huckabee's in-laws are liberals and don't even like trump. hollywood is getting in on the action, too. actor seth rogen bragged on tv how he recently embarrassed speaker paul ryan front of his children. >> and he said to come, i have a picture with you? and i look over and his kids are standing right there, expectantly, clearly fans of mine, and i said, no way, man! and i couldn't stop. and i said furthermore, i hate what you are doing to the country at this moment and i count the days until you know longer have one iota of the power that you currently have. and i look over and his kids are still standing right there.
11:04 pm
>> laura: nice guy. i always get them mixed up with jonah hill for some reason. but if i were seth rogen, i would be trying to keep everything and i could. he's not exactly chris pratt, but i digress. even the cineplex doesn't say from the bullying tactics of the left. florida attorney general pam bondi attended a showing of mr. rogers, a documentary which ironically is all about civility and kindness. apparently the left-wing mob who confronted and afflicted spit on the attorney general of florida didn't get the memo. >> what would mr. rogers think about you? taking away health insurance? shame on you! >> laura: so that's the video of bondi leaving the theater, so that's what they wanted. but as she came in, she and her boyfriend were verbally assaulted and physically
11:05 pm
threatened in the concessions line. >> they came up again, just every curse word in the book and they said to him, hey blue eyes, aren't you going to protect her? and using lots of other words, too. what are you going to do? they are this far from my face, one spit on my head, they were trying to create a fight. >> laura: you bet they were. if this continues, someone is going to get hurt. imagine a a few years ago, obama officials who were harassed and verbally assaulted in that way? there would be cause for the national guard to step in. but since conservatives are targeted, all bets are off and all standards out the window. this is all evolving into a type of domestic terrorism and it's only going to get worse. homeland security chief kirstjen nielsen was driven out of a restaurant in washington, d.c., last week by angry protesters.
11:06 pm
stephen miller was also heckled at a d.c. eatery and tonight protesters are staked outside of his apartment building. they even staged a protest outside of nielsen's home, blaring audio of this child separation at a border facility. these are anarchic, organized spectacles. they are no accident. each flash protest is planned out and choreographed. its planned online first, again, and it's meant to shame the political opponent to stoke violence and hatred. and maybe even intimidate people in the future from getting involved in the trump administration at all. then at a weekend rally, this is the best. congressman maxine waters issued her own very soft call to action. >> the american people have put up with this president long
11:07 pm
enough. what more do we need to see? what more lies do we need to hear? do you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, in a gasoline station, you get out and you gather a crowd. and you push back on them. >> laura: will talk about that phrase, push back on them, and just a moment. we invited ms. waters and a number of democrats to appear tonight, no surprise, they all refused. she did find time to go on msnbc tonight and sunday to share this unifying message. >> i want to tell you, for these members of his cabinet who remain and try to defend him, they are not going to be able to go to a restaurant. they are not going to be able to stop at a gas station. it won't be able to shop at a department store. the people are going to turn on them, they are going to protest. they will absolutely harass them
11:08 pm
until they decide that they are going to tell the president, noel, i can't hang with you. >> laura: harass them, approach them, drive them out, push them back. so is maxine waters pushing violence using her position? paul ryan stood at the very least open an ethics inquiry into the water's rhetoric, and i think they should move to censure her. she seems to be using her office to justify acts of harassment, intimidation, that could very well lead to violence. now reactions of outrage from the white house to see pelosi forced waters to the microphone today. but if maxine waters thinks a nonapology double-talk 48 hours after her incendiary and outrageous statements that she repeated yesterday are
11:09 pm
sufficient to call while the firestorm, she has another thing coming. >> there is nowhere in my statement, anytime, anyplace, that we talked about that. we are talking about civility but protest is stability. >> laura: dry them out, harass them, get right up in their face. all things that people took away from what she said in her very words. so threatening women and children at a dinner, at the movies, is civil? no wonder she's too afraid to come on. she will only go to the softball interviews on msnbc. maybe she should come on a show she can't intimidate. let's be clear, she knew exactly what she was saying and she did not apologize for her comments in the least. the woman has been saying crazy hateful and incendiary things for years. the difference now is the entire
11:10 pm
democratic party has drifted into maxine land. >> as far as i'm concerned, the tea party can go straight to hell. i don't honor him, i don't respect him and i don't want to be involved. the american people had better understand what's going on. this is a bunch of scumbags. let's impeach 45! impeach 45! >> laura: the left wants to cry targeting people, and because conservatives are the targets the new standard has emerged. since they believed trump's policies are detestable, or sorry,-like, they blame trump of i attempt to justify public bullying course.
11:11 pm
>> should someone be openly welcomed in society wherever they please? i would say the polite discourse is inappropriate when there are babies in cages. does that mean we will be violent, no. does that mean that sarah sanders can have a nice, quiet dinner with her family when she's taking our tax dollars to implement this policy? i don't think so. >> it wasn't until we had 3-year-olds in cages that these people couldn't go into public. >> of course it's forced on either side of the aisle and is much worse and much harder to do anything in this country. >> laura: spare mean. for decades, hollywood and the left have driven any semblance of decency and civility from the movie house as well as the lecture hall. they have cheapened everything from music to fashions, but trump is to blame for the vulgarity of the culture? nice try. our politics are now devoid of
11:12 pm
conversation, debate, ideas. the left has created a political culture where demonization of opponents and boycotts are routine. if you can't beat them in a debate, try to shut them down altogether. organized chaos is their favorite tool. but the idea is not to come to some common understanding or even win an argument of course, but to destroy political opponents. and you bet, and attempt to silence them. when democrats are urging uprisings online to deny republican women safe havens, peace, just having dinner in private, in a public place? a moment of enjoyment for the family? they won't allow that, something is deeply wrong. now is the moment for all people right and left to condemn that civil disobedience and those advocating it.
11:13 pm
threatening, yelling and haranguing officials and public won't create positive outcomes or a better policy. even chuck schumer said that today, good for him. it will only harden the political divide in this country and perhaps lead to violence. and any blood spilled, what remember what happened a year ago to steve scully's, any blood spilled will be on the hands of maxine waters and any democrats, never trump first, condoning. the tactics of vicious intimidation. and we will not stand for that. and that is the angle. let's discuss with my first guest, monica crowley, senior fellow at the london center for policy research, jason chaffetz and richard goodstein, former advisor to bill and hillary clinton. jason, i have to start with you. a former member of the house of representatives, maxine waters'
11:14 pm
comment, a nonapology apology this morning and i called for her censure on the house of representatives. >> if you impugn the integrity of another member, if you are inciting violence like that, she should be censured. i'm glad you brought that up, i think it's very appropriate. make the house of representatives vote on whether or not they think she is doing what she's trying to do. it is a violent, vulgar, a scorched earth philosophy and it's going to lead to violence. unless the rest stand up and say, this is not acceptable. >> jason just said, and you said earlier, and somebody got knocked over, driven over and murdered in charlottesville because they were a racist
11:15 pm
protesting or taking issue with the protesters in charlottesville. so people have gotten hurt from uncivil behavior. i think for people who were trump defenders to stand up and on behalf of someone who mocked the disabled, the left don't like them, for someone to because nobody else up for being uncivil is a bit much. maxine waters is not the face of the democratic party. when michelle obama said it, when they go low, we go high. that stood for democrats where to be. the problem is, that position lost. so i don't blame someone for maxine waters taking the difference that she did. >> laura: i think everyone's rhetoric needs to come down a little bit, i agree with you on that. i really do and i think we can all do better. but there are many democrats who have supported maxine waters. let's watch a few of them. >> do you wish you hadn't said it? >> she has a right to say what
11:16 pm
she feels and i support it. >> if i saw an administrator out and about, there is nothing wrong with confronting that person. >> laura: he doesn't even know how to refer to eight stafford. look. trump can get pretty heated sometimes so i think richard has a point there. but you have a sitting congresswoman who represents a part of l.a. that has seen the l.a. riots. remember that was where she really cut her teeth, her claim to fame was 1992, i went back and watch that today. she said, push back on them, monica. turn on them. harass them so they can't go into public. turn on them, push back on them. that's not debate them. play fun with them. it is different. a crowd surrounding an individual with her children were with her family members,
11:17 pm
that's a different deal. >> yes, and we are so far beyond normal politics, laura, that sometimes it's difficult to see what's really happening. but let's be really clear. the left is at war. the left of that war with the constitution, the rule of law, free market economics, and with our very values. so they are fighting this war 24 hours a day, seven days a week. now they are in position where they are losing on politics and policy, so they are resorting to these tactics of reaching for the most extreme rhetoric and of the most extreme activity to try to divert attention from the fact that their agenda has failed, and continues to fail. the president's agenda, the conservative agenda is in fact winning. but the fact now that we have to understand that we are engaged in this war whether we want to fight it, or not. the linsky tactics, the pivot tactics of overwhelming the system whether it's at the border or elsewhere -- >> laura: they want anarchy.
11:18 pm
anarchy is their friend. >> it's about destroying the system so they could rebuild it. >> laura: and i would say jason, it's a way of flooding the voters. we have a lot of tedious, bold and clunky voters that need to be replaced with new voters. i've always believed that the strategy. they love to flood the zone with new voters. the president tonight spoke out against maxine waters and i want to watch. >> they are only good at one thing. what's their term? resist. it's the party of maxine waters, can you believe her? no, no. this has become the party of maxine waters and nancy pelosi. >> laura: look, chuck schumer came out today and tried to distance himself.
11:19 pm
i think he saw her this was going and even nancy pelosi tepid criticism. but she did have supporters out there, even in the media, a lot of never trump-does, he's just not letting this go on should he let it go or focus on the substance and let nancy pelosi implode? >> this is much deeper than anything that has happened in the last week. dem democrats mind's exploding donald trump is not only garnering more support and has more public support than a lot of previous presidents have at this point in his presidency, but his policies are working. you look at all the economic indicators and look at what's happening overseas, and the so-called big wave that was going to hit us in the 2018 election, that's not happening. the only thing they are left with is the desperation of yelling, screaming and taunting people and it's not productive. >> jason, listen. the reason democrats' heads are exploding is because it shocks the conscience to see these
11:20 pm
babies in the metal cages whatever they were. >> don't talk about that. where were you in 2014 when i introduced an asylum reform bill that passed out of that -- i passed a bill out of the judiciary committee. go back and read it. democrats were nowhere in support of that bill. it talked about accelerating the reunification of children and their parents. where were the democrats? i didn't have a single democrat, and supported to do that bill. they didn't even care about it. >> 58 senators voted for an immigration reform bill not all that long ago. >> laura: i thought it was interesting that jay johnson came out over the weekend and said, we did do what we did, because they were seen the same thing we see now. they were seeing an absolute overwhelming of our borders. we have limited resources and we are limited on people, you can't process 50,000 people in three months, it's really hard to do that. he was a moment of candor or
11:21 pm
11:23 pm
>> laura: getting the run away at dominick runaround from the fbi and doj, devin nunes went straight to the director dan coats today. he gave the agency at 5:00 a.m. deadline to turn over key documents in the russia and hillary clinton investigation. >> i would say we cleaned up most of what was on the table except for the most important piece. did you or did you not run informants into the trump campaign, especially before the investigation even began.
11:24 pm
very simple question, it deserves a very simple answer. >> laura: the fbi responded late tonight saying, they have already responded to nunez's request. congressman mark meadows joins us now, and that just happens apparently. so you have the documents you are entitled to? >> the one good thing that the fbi and doj is good at is creative writing. any time you would suggest that we have all the documents, when we have tens of thousands of documents that have not been delivered, as we speak right now, we have a valid subpoena that has not been really responded to appropriately, and it's 97 days and ticking. so for them to suggest that we have everything is just factually incorrect. >> laura: kevin kleinsmith. tell us about kevin kleinsmith. we need our own deck of cards. just to identify, not for anything different, just to identify them. it's like the love boat here. >> you have sally moyer, you
11:25 pm
have all these different individuals. there is one common theme and it's called bias. bias against this president. fbi attorney, attorney number two is what we believe. >> laura: in the ig report. >> and chuck ross, and the ig has not confirmed that but that's what we suspect. chuck ross did some great reporting today and said that he was the one interviewing papadopoulos. so here you have someone who is key to opening the investigation in this whole donald trump and russian collusion narrative and yet you have someone with inherent bias that started it. it's extremely troubling. >> now kleinsmith, like moyer, as evidencing bias through various text messages that were released. >> a lot of text messages. it's not just the text messages but the fact that they were key components of an investigation that peter strzok was involved
11:26 pm
with. so it's all of them coming together with not one, not to, but five people that were biased against the president and they initiated the investigation. so here's the interesting thing. what we've got to do as a country's become transparent. give us the document, let us put them out of the american people and let them judge for themselves what is right and what is wrong. i said this before, the doj and fbi has an opportunity to either be part of the cleanup crew or the cover-up. >> laura: jeff sessions was on our show last week and -- >> he recused himself but he has really recused himself of any knowledge of what's going on. so rod rosenstein knows better. he really does know better and the buck stops with him.i can tg
11:27 pm
to have floor action this week, laura. this week on the house floor, where we compel them to turn over those documents. >> laura: just so people know, kleinsmith is the one who wrote "viva la resistance." >> if he is indeed. why can't we identify attorneys they're not under cover agents. >> >> they are not part of the counterintelligence division. >> laura: which they are at work trying to pass them off as. >> they are actually part of the general counsel's office. so an attorney working for the fbi is normally not an undercover operation and certainly wasn't here. >> laura: news tonight that eric prince's computers have been seized and so forth. any thoughts on that? former blackwater ceo. >> so what you see is bob mueller trying to grab information and collect information. by the way, you got 1.2 million
11:28 pm
documents from donald trump in 90 days and yet they can't turn over 50,000 documents to congress in nine months, that's a problem. >> laura: what's next for nunez after the 5:00 p.m. deadline? >> i think the next thing is floor action for all of us. >> laura: ryan will do that? >> while he made a promise to us last week that if we didn't get all the documents by friday we would seep floor action this week. i'm waiting for him to follow through on that commitment, but if he doesn't -- >> laura: fees amount of his word, he will follow through. you may have to put pressure on him. let's get reaction out from former attorney general mike mukasey. it's great to see you. you just heard from the congressman, this is wild. the justice that you have received all the documents that you are essentially entitled to. where are we tenant, judge? >> i haven't seen the subpoena for the document so i'm in the
11:29 pm
dark about where we are. but it's not an impossible task to turn over documents. we would have to do more discussing between and amongst themselves then posturing publicly. >> laura: it looks like the documents nunez requested were about informants placed inside the trump campaign, or who approach the drum campaign. i think they are trying to determine when this investigation really began. they were saying that it began at the end of july 2016, but indications are that it began really in the spring of 2016. the state department was very well involved, christopher steele and that dossier, i think that's what they are worried about. and who was the impetus judge from the very beginning. >> that's what we need to know is when it started and how. to the extent that -- i'm
11:30 pm
interested in example, knowing how this informant, who started out as a cia asset, suddenly became an fbi informant? those two organizations don't really play with each other's toys and i don't understand how that happened, who brought it about and paid him and told him it was responsibility going into the trump campaign. and when that happened, that is something that i think we ought to know and if it happened i think that we ought to know that as well. >> laura: i just asked congressman meadows about the failure of the inspector general to reveal who these staff attorneys are. and it looks like esther kleinsmith was writing unbelievable text messages that he was so depressed after the election, he was stressed and depressed. and at the heart of this investigation along with strzok and moyer.
11:31 pm
we are not revealing who these people are? why? but they aren't out undercover agents. >> and even more significantly, at least to me, is not just the statements about the resistance but rather, a set of messages that pass between strzok and his friend the night that donald trump out the nomination, where she wrote to him that it's unbelievable trunk out of nomination. and he he said this increases the pressure to terminate mye, which was the code name, made your exam, for the clinton investigation. that's not just an expression of opinion, that's a statement of how we ought to do our jobs. and that in my reading was not in the ig report, i don't recall seeing that. and i think that something they have to question strzok about when he testifies. >> laura: and judge, he was
11:32 pm
just walked out of the doj last week. apparently just lost his security clearance. someone a political advocate, rung two critical violation as a lead investigator. i never worked at doj. i've worked at the white house and transportation education, supreme court. i've never worked at doj but if that's the way business is done at the doj, we are in big trouble in this country. big trouble. >> doesn't inspire confidence, nor does something that was reported in the ig report, namely that they were fbi agents in addition to the press getting three meals and free tickets and other perks, and that there were so many of them. they couldn't tell who had leaked information. that was an absolute jaw dropper. the notion that fbi agents were getting compensation come
11:33 pm
11:34 pm
11:35 pm
dialogue towards physical confrontations and tonight's angle. but other questions linger. did the red hen restaurant violate the rights of sarah sanders when it kicked her out? and congresswoman maxine water illegally incite leftists to commit violence? let don jones and political analysts in washington attorney, gail trotter. okay gail, you have the floor. what possible cause of action could sanders have against this restaurant? >> if the restaurant violated sanders rights because they discriminated against her against the human rights act which does not allow places of public accommodation. and it should be interpreted broadly an end political
11:36 pm
belief's sources of employment, where you live or where you work cannot be held against you in denying service. >> laura: this is a source of damage, what kind of damages? >> if there were leftists trying to put this in force, they would put this business out of business as we have seen in other positions. >> laura: "the washington post" said, no cause of action here, they said sarah sanders is out of luck. what is your thought? >> i don't applaud the action but i don't think there's a cause of action there. our legislature, and virginia were anywhere else has to make it very clear that they do not allow disk termination based on political beliefs. they have to prove and at this location, the red hen, they always stop people with these particular personal or political beliefs not just
11:37 pm
sarah sanders herself. because this was targeted directly at her and her participation in the trump organization, i don't think they could win here. >> i disagree. the comments that the restaurant owner made specifically said they were denying that service and that is entered into they would be entered into evidence exonerating sarah sanders. evidence as completely exonerating sarah sanders and making sure that the restaurant had discriminated against her. even if you go to the point where the old virginia statute allows places not to discriminate places based on religion and, religion has come into this over and over again. people on both sides citing bible starches. and >> you can respond to that. i will give you the next point. i find it interesting when we talk about the cause of action,
11:38 pm
we see these laws come through several states where the laws are prohibited based on race, religion or orientation and conservatives try very hard to say it's okay for someone to express their personal beliefs for religious freedoms. it will not fly in those case, it will not fly here. >> this is maxine waters on saturday versus maxine waters today. let's watch. >> if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, and a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you pull a crowd. and you push back on them, and you tell them they are not welcome. >> i have not called for the harm of anybody. this president has lied again when he is saying that i called for harm to anyone. this don the con man will say anything. he is the one that is responsible for promoting
11:39 pm
violence. >> she says push back and obviously the import of that is, drive them out. she's urging people to surround members of the administration, when they are having a private dinner with their children, it doesn't matter. how is that not ultimately inciting people to violence? and she says, no. that's not what i intended. but you are telling people to harass other people. she is a smart woman and she knows what the word harass means, does she not? >> i'm sure she does but let's look at the legal sense of the word. what do we have the right to do as americans? one of the fundamental rights is to -- >> laura: not incite violence. >> she did not ask them to incite violence, she asked to push back on their policies. >> laura: no, she did not. i listen very closely, four times. >> she said as he said push them out of the store but not dried them over with a car.
11:40 pm
>> laura: but according to the statute, they are public places of gathering so you have free association, gail. i think it's a tough call on this but she has free association as a person, sarah sanders. she can freely associate with anyone that she wants and go anywhere she wants but this is a private establishment. so does a private establishment say we have the right to serve you if you are barefoot, we are not going to serve you if you are part of the trump administration. >> there is no question when talking about what maxine waters said that this is inciting. the first amendment does not protect incitement of violence. she wants mob rule and a specific action against people whose name we know. 23 members of the cabinet and six of them are republican women. and >> laura: create a crowded, push back on them and tell them they are not welcome anywhere. i think at those words were used
11:41 pm
on any other class of people that were not related to trump or supporting him, the left would have a huge problem. they have lots of creative liberal lawyers who say, there could be because of action. this is a good arbiter segment. you are both really good. i don't know, can i have a tie? no i can't. i think gail has at this time. i don't have my gavel. the bible has been used to both attack and defend the president's immigration policy. so what's the truth? an important debate with a panel of distinguished religious leaders, next.
11:43 pm
11:44 pm
bible to justify that policy so this all sparked a very big debate. let's discuss that now with a pair of very distinguished religious leaders and i'm delighted they are both with us. dr. darrell scott of the president's faith and advisory council and dr. engel. great to see you both. dr. engel, let's start with you. you are actually, i think a supporter of the president but you disagree with his policy that it initially, at least, separated families, child in one area, parents more and a formal immigration detention. why? >> i appreciate president trump's leadership, and he is trying to do the right thing he wants to uphold the law of the land, no doubt about that. i think the issue there was to provide protection which he wants to do as it relates to borders. and you have to look at protection, and how do you bring the human element into this situation, so you can provide
11:45 pm
human dignity and respect and care and compassion. and provide an element that gives both. i think that's the thing that a lot of americans are hoping that our president will step up, in a way, along with the congress, the house and the senate. our leaders will do the right thing and provide that protective and compassionate pieces to this legislation. >> laura: pastor scott, this is bishop michael curry who is just slamming jeff sessions or invoking the bible. let's watch. >> to our christians to quote romans 13 over jesus of nazareth as if jesus of nazareth doesn't exist, that is highly problematic. it's flat out highly unbiblical, unchristian and un-american. >> laura: your reaction to that? and i have something to say about welcoming the stranger.
11:46 pm
>> it's not unreasonable to refer to the scripture, especially if you are a bible believer. it's not unusual to refer to scripture as a basis to validate any actions that you engage in. once again, if you are a bible believer, we oftentimes use scripture to validate actions or activities that we engage in. i don't see anything wrong with jeff sessions utilizing that scripture, because that scripture definitely says to obey the civil authorities. jesus nor the apostle paul endorsed sedition or rebellion or a violent uprising against rome and using that scripture, he was saying that in order to advance our cause, violence is not the way. obey the laws of the land so they don't have a reason to accuse us of any wrongdoing. obey the laws of the land and put other matters into the hands of god and he will work it out. he won the bible calls on us to welcome a stranger and it's very powerful. welcome into your table, invite
11:47 pm
a stranger to your home for meals and so forth. but the catholic bishop seemed to take that to mean, open borders. they have a very big wall around the vatican, is a beautiful wall, really nice wall. but that means anyone who steps foot over the border has to be processed into the country and released. how is that welcoming the stranger, according to biblical text? that does not mean to be devoid of all laws of the land to come up does it? >> absolutely. and i go back to that passage the attorney general referred to in romans 13 talking about, obey the laws of the land. when you talk about the context of god's law, god's law always for protection, always for peace and always for harmony. that's why when you look at the issues that we are facing with immigration reform, all the issues and challenges that we have seen over the last couple weeks, you have to have a come
11:48 pm
together approach that covers all the issues of, you have to look at the issues of collaborating on providing security at the wall. you have to look at issues of compassion as it relates to families. >> we all do what we can to donate to organizations that help people on the ground in their home countries. so many christian organizations, faith-based groups in guatemala, central america, south america, africa and around the world, that's where we as individuals can make a difference through our faith, our churches and organizations. it doesn't mean we completely have to smash our own rule of law. if you have a really sad life and i understand it's horrible, but we have to allow you to come into the country no matter how you come in. and i want to get pastor scott on that. this is a very liberal priest known as father james martin.

he's not a big fan of trump to put it lightly. that's what he said. >> no one wants to be a refugee or migrant but they do it out of great love for their families. they have lots of guts to do it and it's up to us to welcome them. i think the problem with a lot of these christians who say they read the bible, i don't know what bible they are reading because the bible i read has jesus reaching out to those on the margins, including and most especially, migrants and refugees. >> laura: pastor scott, a lot of americans feel like they are on the margins. like two blocks from where we broadcasted from, there are homeless on the street. >> there is a difference between migrants, refugees and illegal immigrants. the parents of these children know that they are committing a crime when they endeavor to sneak into this country. there is a zero-tolerance policy and they know that our president is hard lined in regards to that but they try to sneak in anyways.

now anyone, an american citizen regardless of race, creed or color. if they don't like you are engaged in the commission of a crime and you are caught, apprehended, and you have a child in your custody, that child will be removed from your custody and be placed into child services until someone either comes and gets them or they are remanded over or whatever. i don't understand why we are taking any culpability from the crime being committed away from the parents and make it just grabbing kids and putting them into concentration camps, because that's not the case at all. there is a crime being committed and the children are in the custody. >> laura: and its donald trump's fault. >> and i'm going to sneak into america despite the law. i wouldn't even put my children at that risk. >> laura: it's a dangerous journey, that's for sure come up through mexico. phenomenal segment, thank you both. in the greatest hits with the president remark, and my

henry mcmaster's rally tonight. thunderstorms deleted by an hour but it was worth the wait for the crowd. >> south carolina loves donald trump and we were watching this forces of nature, there was lightning and thunder, the storm end of the rain, and then it cleared. then air force one landed and the real force of nature got off the plane. >> president trump: so please get your [bleep] out tomorrow and vote. >> laura: we had to leave out the president. its the family hour. we don't need the, a, word. he was into the moment there. so how did you rate the president's performance? >> a+. the place was bursting at the seams, we had an overflow in the auditorium and over a thousand people outside couldn't even get into play safe.
11:55 pm
the people of south carolina love president trump and he certainly didn't do support. it was terrific. >> laura: so you guys gave trump a 14-point victory in 2016. that was a big smash on hillary clinton. although south carolina has changed a lot over the years, governor mcmaster. it looks like you will beat john warren tomorrow although you want everyone to go out and vote for sure. but it's changed a lot demographically and we see the resistance ramping up across the united states, including what maxine waters said over the weekend. she didn't really apologize for it at all. but have you ever been harassed in public or, do you feel the change and the discourse? >> no ma'am. i don't think we have seen much of that here. i can't believe maxine walters and these other people, they have gone crazy. and the debate whether it's a violation of this law and inciting a riot, and it probably is a violation of a law but worse than that is just plain
11:56 pm
bad manners. i don't know what these people are thinking. people look to them for guidance and leadership and they are talking and acting totally talking and acting totallyir responsibly. it's hard to believe, but we don't have much of that in south carolina. that crowd tonight was about the same as the others. they were delirious with joy to see donald trump in south carolina. and when i campaigned for him in the primary, the presidential primary, it was the same thing. i have seen such enthusiasm close to what i have seen with president trump, and a candidate trump one time, and that's when i saw a beatles concert years ago. people would go wild and they do that every time they see donald trump. they love president trump they can't get enough of them. >> laura: john warren, h opponent, is that he is the more trump like character and has more trump like views. >> that's nonsense. president trump said tonight, he and i think alike and we are doing the same things.
11:57 pm
of course president trump has been involved in politics deeply for a long time. he wanted to run for governor of new york and before that he was involved with people running the reform party. he's a student of politics and history and was a world figure before he became president. he and i are doing the same thing, cutting taxes and regulations, getting rid of sanctuary cities, protecting the children. no tax money to planned parenthood. we have a robust economy here, but we are just booming here. $6 million in investment, $20,000 -- it's the same thing that trump is doing and we love him. >> laura: we will be watching closely tomorrow night. we really appreciate you joining us and staying up late after the rally. we will be right back.

>> i know it is hip to hate on the media and we do it from time to time here as well but displays like this tonight, don't know. go home, jim acosta. i am not huge supporter of jim acosta at the other network but maybe you need it to rhyme. acosta, we are going to accost you. that plays into the left-wing's hands, we don't want that to happen. we will keep reporting and exposing it. that is it for us, we will turn it over to shannon bream and the fox news at 19. shannon: governor mike huckabee response to the fallout from a restaurant turning away his daughter and new call to confront trump officials and supporters wherever they may be and a bombshell on the russia probe from the
