tv The Ingraham Angle FOX News August 16, 2018 11:00pm-12:00am PDT
11:00 pm
none of those are cliches, and others are exaggerations. >> sean: checkmate, rush limbaugh. we'll always be fair and balanced. let not your heart be troubled. ingra-ham time. ♪ >> laura: good evening from washington. i am laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle." we have a huge show for you tonight featuring exclusives with senator rand paul and congressman kevin mccarthy. plus, a special thursday edition of "friday follies" with raymond arroyo. let's get right to our top story. how to prune the judicial branch. that is the focus of tonight's "angle." as the media and their democrat compatriots obsess over omarosa or michael cohen or even john brennan, president trump is methodically putting a conservative imprint on the judiciary. and not just on the
11:01 pm
supreme court. >> you know, when i got in, we had over 100 federal judges that weren't appointed. i don't know why obama left that. it was like a big, beautiful present to all of us. it was, like, a gift from heaven.. we were left judges, they are the ones that judge all of your disputes. they judge on what is there on the environment and what is not fair, where they're going to take your farms and factories away and l where they're not. >> laura: in only 20 months, he has nominated and the senate has confirmed 26 new district court judges, and a record 24 federal appeals court judges, with two more appellate court nominees scheduled her votes this week. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell should get huge plaudits for making trump's judicial confirmations a priority. yet, conservatives are still frustrated. but why?pr well, because the most
11:02 pm
notoriously activist and the most reverse circuit court in the nation, the ninth circuit court of appeals out west is still sitting with seven vacancies. before trump took office, the ninth circuit was totally lopsided, with 18 democratic and seven republican appointees. trump has managed to get one nominee through from hawaii and another from idaho is likely to be confirmed later this year, plus, a seattle attorney was nominated to the court this summer. but still, now more than half of the 13 circuit court vacancies remaining nationwide are out on the ninth circuit. and what's more concerning is the white house has yet to nominate anyone for the three open seats in california. i can think of two good nominees. the reason for this lies with the time-honored practice known as blue slipping court nominees. that is the courtesy of giving a state two senators an opportunity to say yea or nay to
11:03 pm
the judicial nomination of aou president going forward. and the democrats, by the way, are accusing the republicans of messing with this 100-year-old tradition, which is kind of funny, considering in 2013, democrats themselves chose to go what they call nuclear and ended the ability of opponents to filibuster trial and appellate court nominations. and when harry reid, by the way, announced the change, it was all of course, making perfect sense. >> the rule of change will make clerks with all nominations, other than the supreme court, the majority threshold vote. yes or no. the senate is a living thing and to survive, it must change, as it has, over the history of this great country. the average american adapting the rules to make the senate work again is just common sense. >> laura: "just common sense!" okay, time for senate republicans to use their ownmo common own common sense to boast
11:04 pm
the current standoff with california senators kamala harris and dianne feinstein. as all these seats sit empty on the ninth circuit, it continues on its progressive merry way. is it time to formally ditch the slip? the argument against doing that after all could be that this could all come back to bite republicans big time when a democrat wins the white house down the road. and i get that, i understand it, but given how the ninth circuit has stymied key elements of the president's agenda, i think we are kind of past the point of worrying about senate tradition. the ninth circuit is completely out of control, from reversing the presidents travel ban last year to blocking trump on sanctuary cities, it's eventually but acting like an extension of the anti-trump resistance. there is another option, though, that is short of feeling the
11:05 pm
-- killing the blue ship altogetherds and that is just to minimize its effect, in other words, their views of the home states senators are still a factor in selecting judicial nominees but they are not the equivalent of an automatic veto over any president's pick. but we need to face facts. even if the president fills all the open seats with terrific constitutional conservatives, the makeup of that ninth circuii runaway court will still be 16 democrat appointees and 13 republican nominees. but certainly, there would be a better chance to have balance than any random three-judge panel, right? the odds are better that way. and that wouldn't just be better, by the way, for thet president or his agenda, it would be better for the rule of law, the constitution, and the country. and that the "the angle." and it's not just the federal judges, the latest example inan that horrifying case at a new mexico involving a remote compound, child abuse, and radical islamic extremists.. astoundingly, judge sarah backus is granting bail to five adults
11:06 pm
in the abuse case, claiming prosecutors failed to identify any specific threat to the community.ai now that is despite prosecutors alleging that these guys were training kids to use all those firearms to carry out terror attacks at schools. how is this possible? joining us now with the reaction is attorney harmeet dhillon, who works in these types of cases, as long dominic well as troy -- along with constitutional law attorney troy waldron. harmeet, let's start with you. i think the regular folks watching this cannot believe their ears, where we have the authority to visit thisol compound, this guy -- the first police officer on the scene said he had never seen conditions like this, it was so sad, so depraved, kids were starving, and of course, a body of a child found on the compound, as well. now four of the defendants have $20,000 bail set? what? >> it isn't even bail, laura.
11:07 pm
it's worse than that, it's a $20,000 signature bond, meaning that if they don't show up for their court date, they have to promise to pay the government $20,000, which is obviously ridiculous. if you have somebody who is potentially going to be put away for life on terror charges, a $20,000 promised to pay is not a deterrent for them to flee or commit more crimes. this is as a result of new mexico's very liberal bail law, they did bail reform in 2016, and the chief justice of one of the justices of the supreme court added some additional conditions to that so that at the very early stage, the prosecutors have to show why "clear and convincing evidence" that the pernc is -- person is either a flight risk or danger to the community. let's review the evidence here. here, as you said, you have 11 children who are starving and being trained, according to prosecutors, to commit crimes including terror crimes, rapid charging of guns, and are being
11:08 pm
abused. you have a dead child, you have numerous weapons, you have hundreds of feet of tunnel under this compound, and you have w somebody who is being held on a kidnapping charge in another jurisdiction. c so if this isn't clear and convincing evidence that, there's a flight risk, and b, there is a potential risk of the community, i don't know what it is. the judge went out of her way to say to the prosecutors, well, this seems like an unconventional lifestyle that you are describing here. but i don't really see the danger to the community. a i mean, it's crazy. anybody watching this knows that it's nonsense. unconventional lifestyle, quote unquote, from the judge on monday. that's right. laura: troy, this is what the judge actually said when they were discussing this deal issue in court. let's watch. >> the state alleges there was a plan, but the state hasn't shown, to my satisfaction, what in fact that plan was. there is no reason for me to believe that these defendants
11:09 pm
have proven themselves to be a danger to the community. >> laura: so, troy, again, to nonlegal people out there, just regular people watching this tonight, they see a situation where you have five adults, 11 children kept in depraved, abusive conditions, one dead child, and they have to sign on the dotted line that they will pay the $20,000 when they come back for their hearing. how is this good for the community? >> laura, the judge here is just following the law. the eighth amendment of the united states constitution, which we don't get to talk a lot about outside of law school classrooms, is very clear. the government can't impose excessive bail. an excessive bail is anything more than what is required to make sure that somebody comes to
11:10 pm
court. so the court here impose not only the $20,000 but electronicm monitoring, they have to check in with her lawyers, and -- >> laura: once a week, troy! one time a week. we got a dead child, starving children, they would have been more dead children undoubtedly had authorities not arrived on the scene, and they don't have to fork over the 20 grand each, troy, correct? >> that's right. that's right. it's a signature draw. it's only $20,000 if they don't show up. >> laura: do the defendants have to pay the money? >> not right now. >> laura: hello? thank you! i'm freaking out right now. i'm sorry, it's an outrage if they don't have to pay the money!. how are we going to trust four adults, five adults total,om but four adults who treated children this way, showing up for the hearing, where they had
11:11 pm
tunnels under the compound! this judge is way off the rails! i know it's her call but she's way off the rails on this one! >> one of them has been taken into i.c.e. custody, the others being held on an out-of-state warrant, all the kids, thankfully, are in protective custody, and all the weaponsin have been taken, so there is no indication that they are a flight risk or that they are going to flee the jurisdiction. the government wasn't able to show in the court hearing that they won't show up for the court date. >> laura: troy's right, the prosecutor acording to theve judge, saying that you didn't give me clear and convincing evidence that these people at present pose adager to the community, and the constitutional amendment in new mexico, part of the state constitution now, says, that is an option, you get to show clear and convincing evidence, and apparently, the prosecutors, according to the judge, didn't
11:12 pm
do this. this judge has a bit of a reputation. there was another case where people were up in arms because of a low bail set involving another individual. we also his picture right here.r another individual. another case of abuse, and the bail seemed low, $10,000, and people were not happy about that. but harmeet, troy's point, took the gun, took, i guess, the ammunition, kids were safe, i guess, what is the big deal? >> yeah, what's the big deal, laura? they taught that in the law school, the things that speak for itself. you have a dead kid, terrorist training camp going on here, there is no threat to the public? i mean, that is ridiculous. the prosecutions included in their evidence to the judge a handwritten terrorist manifestou about what they wanted to do and of course, the prosecutor wasn'r able to bring these children into court to testify themselves because, they are small children, b, they are probably in hospital recovering from this abuse. so this judge went on to make gratuitous comments. she accused the prosecutors of playing on religious prejudice
11:13 pm
because the prosecutors mentioned at the core that these are muslim rituals that were being done that torture these children leading to the death of one of them, and the judge said, oh, i can't take their religion into consideration. no one was asking to take their religion into consideration, it's specific criminals, and on top of that, yes, thank god, one of these people is an i.c.e. custody in one of them will be handed over to georgia on child kidnapping charges. but if it were up to this judge, she granted very minimalor conditions to all five of them, and that is an outrage and that is a repeated pattern by thisit judge. a democrat who came from san francisco, my hometown, unfortunately, that is where she came from. that's where she practices. >> laura: susannah martinez put a statement on her facebook page. she says this as a result of liberal pretrial release rules put in place by the supreme court, judicial activism at its worst, something i've spoken about, time to put a stop to the revolving door in our justice system and keep dangerous criminals in jail where they belong.pr
11:14 pm
troy, do you think because of the public outrage, this judge, could she reverse her decision? i'm not saying you want her to, but could she? >> i think a judge, there is any change in circumstances, or if she was challenged on appeal, certainly could. look, i'm not saying that what these people are accused of is anything less than horrific. and if they are found guilty, they should be prosecuted for the full extent of the law. but the issue here is whether they should be given reasonable bail, and when people are given high bail, that tends to disproportionately hurt lower income people. wealthy people shouldn't be allowed to just get out on bail because they have more money. >> laura: we want to have a longer conversation. >> they're being charged no bail, troy. they're being charged zero bail. they're being charged a signature. that's the outrage. by the way, laura, this trend is
11:15 pm
going on all over the country. all over the country this is happening now. >> laura: it is happening all over the country, but let me tell you, a lot of the illegal immigrants have the bracelets on, the electronic monitoring bracelets, ankle bracelets, they cut them off. it's not like it to be all, end all. so what? it's no big deal. we want to have a longer conversation on another night with you guys about this bail reform issue, something a lot of people aren't really aware of. it's fascinating. you are both great advocates. thank you so much for joining us. i have a question. is al qaeda about to make a major comeback? a disturbing new report from the u.n. finds the terror group showing the surprising levels of resilience. they are stronger than isis in places like somalia, yemen, and. south asia. for more, we are joined by counter terror veteran aaronon cohen. i read this report, and i just read a report about what was happening in iraq and in afghanistan, specifically in afghanistan, where our forces and afghan forces are losing
11:16 pm
some ground against the taliban, and now this. what do you know and what do we need to know as americans? >> well, first of all,me osama bin laden's son, hamsa bin laden who is 29 years old and sees himself as sort of the next young gun on the street has publicly come out and taken over for his dead father and wants to rekindle the al qaeda brand. as we know with terrorism over the years in israel, this is a very large psychological war, run by fear, and what we are seeing here is rekindling of al qaeda 2.0, starting to resurface on a tactical level. i think that al qaeda has had a significant amount of time since
11:17 pm
2011 since osama bin laden was killed, all the p.r. and all the military operations have shifted to isis primarily iraq and syria and after president trump came into power, he was extremely aggressive by unleashing our forces, not just our special ops but larger control of infantry to flush out those pockets. it's given al qaeda a significant amount of time to regroup but from what i understand like with any other terror group we've taken down in israel or have smashed in israel, what happened is you get pieces of these -- of this organization which smashes into hundreds, if not thousands of small piecesas and what they're able to now operate and what they're now doing going dark that means they're now operating nomad terrorcalled which is essentially they can function instantly -- independently from central leadership, any type of real organization, and they can go online and they can train and recruit on this dark web to
11:18 pm
carry out attacks, not unlike we saw in london just the other day.on >> laura: right, bingo. when you hear a story like you just heard in the united states with this new mexico compound, this bizarre scenario, the subjugation of children, and thu seeming jihadist training of the children, going into schools, what does that tell you? >> well, the threat is real. what you have here is you have incubation happening here within this country, in this case, which is being handled -- it's kind of disturbing what is happening with this judge and this bail that has been set or whatever, the lax restrictions, have been set, the fact that they found essentially a terrorist training ground to train children how to commit acts of terror, which is kind of blowing my mind that this isd being treated as the most harsh type of terror investigation and soften it later. might come hard on this thing
11:19 pm
and back off if you find out that's not what it supposed to be. sounds like it's terror, sounds like it's inbred, sporadic nomad terror camp. it's very disturbing and it is something that i almost feel like we're going to see more of because it is that easy to set up. you have kids who are inca hospitals being hidden in witness protection. this is very real. i think it needs to be treated very real and i think hamza bin laden is very real and i think isis being taken down is also significant because al qaeda just went boom. all of it needs to be treated like terrorism. >> laura: yeah, so, aaron, before we let you go, is it avenging his father's death? is it the primary motivation, do you think, of hamza or is it just a larger ideological religious, you know, struggle against christianity in the western world? >> i think that's a good question. i think it's a combination of the two. i don't mean to come down in the
11:20 pm
middle of that answer but i really do believe that it's a combination of the bureaucracy, versus western democratic values, combined with the perfect incubator, which is a hamza bin laden.co he just married i believe it was the daughter of mohammed atta, who flew a plane into one of the towers on 9/11 -- i >> laura: p talk about a nightmare marriage! oh my gosh! >> nightmare marriage, here it is -- so i think that these terror networks are using hamza and his -- >> laura: celebrity. >> his spark to rekindle his. i think it is playing itself off. i think the cia and nsa need to watch this really, really closely. thank god president trump is around to get aggressive as needed. >> laura: aaron, thanks so much. we appreciate it. senator rand paul was one of the first voices calling for it and now john brennan security clearance has been revoked. so did senator paul convince president trump to do it? was he the one? the senator joins us exclusively next.
11:21 pm
ne? do you need the most trusted battery in your wireless mouse? maybe not. no... maybe you could trust that during your fantasy draft ...no, no, no. the computer won't auto-draft a kicker, in the 7th round. maybe you can trust you won't be kept at night because you auto-drafted a kicker, in the 7th round. (woman laughing) maybe you could trust that for the next 16 weeks you won't think about auto-drafting a kicker, in the 7th round. or... ...you could just trust duracell. prosecutor aaording to the
11:23 pm
this wi-fi is fast. i know! i know! i know! i know! when did brian move back in? brian's back? he doesn't get my room. he's only going to be here for like a week. like a month, tops. oh boy. wi-fi fast enough for the whole family is simple, easy, awesome. in many cultures, young men would stay with their families until their 40's. >> this is what dictators do. this is a dictatorial exercise of power that should frighten and call on all republicans to say, mr. president, you cannot do this. >> huge effect for national security officials, the notion is unprecedented.
11:24 pm
>> it's a clear abuse of power and it's a mark of an authoritarian dictator, really, rather than a democratically elected president of the united states. >> laura: that's all very subtle, don't you think? kentucky senator rand paul made a bold suggestion to president trump late last month, stripped former cia director john brennan of his securityty clearance, along with many othee former government officials acting responsibly. -- g acting irresponsibly. of course, president trump is now doing exactly that. is it fair to say that he deserves kudos? the senator joins is now the exclusive reaction and details on his trip to russia. senator, great to see you. you came back to some pretty powerful news. were you the first one to suggest this to the president and did you talk to him aboutde this since you returned? >> i'm going to talk to him about it this weekend. the trip to russia and john brennan. i've been calling for a review of the security clearances of aa lot of folks, peter strzok and others, four months and months
11:25 pm
and months. i wrote a letter to the fbi director last january asking him what does he still have clearance. with john brennan, i think what the left is ignoring is that i think he should have found his -- think he should have had his clearance revoked for cause. he leaked information that came out in the media, that we had a double agent in yemen, when we are going after the underwear bomber, there still is a bomb maker in yemen. he leaked that his media. two people, richard clarke, who had a security clearance, and hd went on television, saying, not to worry, we have a double agent in yemen. the double agent was still there and deep at that agent's life at -- and he put that agent's life to risk. john brennan should have been fired for that alone.. >> laura: this playing on the senate committee, dianne feinstein, you guys are looking into my staff computers, he denies it, take it the result of the -- from the documents, turns out they were totally spying. >> it's also a question of whether he liked it as
11:26 pm
intelligence committee when he said he did not know who paid for the fake trump dossier. he said, i didn't know. there's two possibilities, he's either lying or he's's incompetent, because that he's -- incompetent, because if he's in charge of the cia, they are using this fake dossier and no one bothered to ask who paid for it. >> laura: he said he didn't know about it? kind of fuzzy. >> the head of the cia doesn't know that this fake dossier was paid for by the clinton campaign, so that is either incompetent or he's lying, one of the two. >> laura: senator, he was pressed on this about brennan yesterday, about the security clearance, brennan was pressed on it yesterday, well, could it be that the president is answering to a third party, not of the american voters. let's watch. >> i don't know. he is the one who has to account for those previous actions and i don't know what he may be concerned about in terms of what might be divulged as part of this investigation. i find his attitude and behavior
11:27 pm
toward vladimir putin and the russians very, very puzzling. i don't know what it is that is behind that.ia i certainly don't know all the things that mr. trump has been involved in over the years, and i do not pretend to have that knowledge. >> laura: today, all of those "i don't knows," senator, and today, the "the new york times," he writes, "mr. trump's claims of no collusion are, in a word, hogwash" -- but he said that he doesn't know, and then claims of no collusion are hogwash. the man is unhinged. a bold statement. unhinged.s >> you look at the guy who called the president treasonous. the commander in chief becauseso treasonous and apparently, that would be advocating for the death penalty for the president but yet he still wants access to the nation's secret? crazy.il >> laura: so russia, you just came back from your trip from the former soviet union, you met with top government officials,
11:28 pm
met with the equivalent of their legislator, what can you tell the american people tonight about the state of u.s.-russian relations under president trump? >> i think from both sides, our relations are the worst theyou have been since the height of b the cold war. this is a real tragedy. one of the great things that ronald reagan did was sitting down with gorbachev. one of the highlights for me, i got to sit down for an hour with former president gorbachev and talk about his recollections with ronald reagan, but also talk about how both sides, both ronald reagan and gorbachev, had to defy the orthodoxy of theirot country to sit down and come to agreements. they didn't, you know, call each other names, they didn't say a murderous thug and talk about the terrible things, some of which did happen, there are a -- which did happen throughout a long period of time in the soviet union, they sat down and said let's make it better and they did. >> laura: are some of these government officials going to be coming to the united states? and are you extended an invitation with some thought of trump meeting with putin, i guess that's off the table.
11:29 pm
there's a lot on the table, off the table. i think people are very confused about this. >> they have two houses in our parliament, one called the federation, like our senate, and then the lower body. they have both agreed to come to washington in the fall forli further meetings. that is good thing. the downside is, the chairman of each of the committees is banned from coming to the united states because of sanctions. one of the things i'm going to ask the president, i will talk to the president this weekend, is i'm going to say why don't we take people off the list that are in the legislature. >> laura: or at least temporarily so they can come and speak. senator paul, we appreciate you coming in tonight and thank you for giving it the update on the trip. up next, airplane cleanups, emotional support, miniature horses? and the new straw you may not want to try. all that in a special edition of "thursday follies" with arroyoan next.ay ry. all that in a
11:32 pm
that veterans day military parade ordered up by trump will happen but just not this year. the white house will "explore opportunities in 2019." on thursday, the associated press reported such an event would likely cost $92 million, more than three times the price initially suggested by the white house. and 12 former senior intelligence officials have issued a joint statement admonishing president trump from yanking former cia director john brennan's security clearance them call the move "ill-considered and unprecedented." and accuse the president of trying to stifle free speech. the signees include james clapper, former national intelligence director. he's on a short list of people who may have their security clearances revoked. i'm jackie ibanez. >> laura: it's time for a
11:33 pm
special early edition. there is just so much good stuff we have to get to. we have to do "friday follies" on a thursday. we didn't have time to do a new graphic. give us a break. one of the great traditions of flying is no more. at least on one airline, my favorite airline. to explain, we are joined by "new york times" best-selling author of the will wilder series, fox news contributor raymond arroyo. southwest airlines has taken away our peanuts? >> they have taken away our peanuts. w >> laura: what? >> it's awful. i was flying at the top of august -- i collect those things, take them home to the kids.le >> laura: are you the same person or who takes the shampoo and conditioner from the hotel? >> no. those honey roasted peanuts, i love. i get on the plane and the attendant tells me, we are nott serving them. she said, you can have veggieg chips or pretzels. i said i don't want these chips. theyey put out a statement, i'm going to read it to you. it says. "peanuts forever will be part of southwest's history and dna, however, to ensure the best onboard experience for
11:34 pm
everyone," you can put up the full statement -- there it is, "especially for customers with peanut-related allergies, we b have made the difficult decisiot to discontinue serving peanuts on all flights beginning august 1st."it they say they want peanut allergy sufferers to feel safe and welcome on southwest. what about me? i am an animal allergy, i'm allergic to cats and dogs. you know only 1% of americans are allergic to peanuts?s? 30% of us are allergic to cats and dogs and the aisles are choked with service animals, emotional support animals, there is an explosion. >> laura: first of all, peanut allergies are very serious, raymond arroyo, so we have to be very mindful of that. i have a question, what are peanut-related allergies? i've heard of peanut, but what are the related allergies? >> dust in the air? i don't know. what happens when i get on board and the lady has a netted carry-on and there's a cat in there. i see the devil eyes staring up
11:35 pm
at a me and my sinuses act up. >> laura: you are not a cat person. >> i pulled the data for you. 700 service animals fly every day, 281,000 service animals a year on most carriers, 751,000 emotional support animals. >> laura: wait a second. wait a second. wait a second. w >> this is a newfangled thing. i really think it is so people can get around the airfares for their pets.fa >> laura: wait a second! did that horse make it on the plane? i have seen a trend in people bringing on -- i'm not talking about the little tiny dogs. i'm talking about the big, massive type dogs. >> i have an irish wolfhound,ng literally two rows in front of me. it is, like, a man in the row. i don't know how you can let that beast -- is a small horse. >> laura: can people treat the dogs like an ottoman? >> they have to. >> laura: there aren't footrests on planes anymore. that's a good ottoman.
11:36 pm
>> do you remember dexter? the emotional support peacock a woman tried to get on united airlines earlier this year? there's a video. you actually try to get the peacock on board. united airlines told her in january, no. laura, we have to have a quick moment of silence because dexter, we learned this week, has died. that is our moment of silence.e. i think what i need is an emotional support dog or cat catcher to spare my allergies so i feel safe and welcome. >> laura: so the peanut allergy people are protected but the -- the 30% of americans. >> 30% of americans that are pet allergy sufferers, they have to eat veggie chips and software. >> laura: the instagram post about dexter. >> no, no, don't worry about dexter. >> laura: the owner -- "he is survived by his sisters, ava, pictured here, and zaza, and by all humans who loved him. dexter, you will be missed and remembered with fondness and
11:37 pm
love." have you ever heard a peacock mate? the meeting sounds a peacock? -- m the mating sounds of peacocks? >> i don't want anything to do with peacocks. the best thing about dexter is now his feathers can be displayed in the foyer. go ahead. >> laura: you have an update on the straw crusade -- i hate plastic straws myself. i think paper is fine. some celebrities have made a video, of course, warning of the dire impacts of plastic straws on whales and sea life. watch. >> 500 million plastic straws are used in the country every single day. many end up in the ocean polluting water and killing sea life. >> if we don't act now, by 2050, they will be more plastic in the ocean than fish. >> do you know where that number comes from, the 500 million number? a little boy named milo, he was a 9-year-old in 2011, that a science project, he calledas around all the strong -- straw manufacturers, they
11:38 pm
gave an estimate. one of them said 500 million or so. he took it. that is what they ran with. here he is on cnn. watch. >> every straw we use, every piece of plastic, will be here on earth somewhere on earth, even when my grandchildren are born. i started the project to reduce the number of straws that go into our landfills every day. >> can you imagine this? >> laura: he's adorable! >> now he's managed to outlaw plastic straws in malibu, seattle, santa barbara, they'll send you to jail for it. >> laura: lots of rich people. >> i was in malibu and they are introduced in boston straws. >> laura: what? >> they had pasta noodles as straws, stuck in the water. >> laura: what's wrong with that? >> your water taste like day-old rigatoni. that is a problem. >> laura: oh, there it is. >> i took a picture. that's an actual pasta straw. it gets soggy. it does -- >> laura: i hate plastic over the beaches, it's horrible for the marine life. don't use as much. we got rid of plastic water bottles at my house.,
11:39 pm

when i hear chelsea clinton speak about all the money that the economy has gotten becausesp of, i guess, more than 44 million abortions in the united states, which is a staggering figure, since 1973, that would improve economy. and to that i say, to monetize life, to me, it's pretty dehumanizing, to a lot of, americans, and how much would 44 million americans, how much would they have added to the u.s. economy, let alone inventions they might have invented or breakthroughs in medicine -- i mean, every child gone is a loss, but for chelsey, it's a gain. so who is dehumanizing whom here? >> listen, i don't think it's right to dehumanize anyone, however, i have to say that choice is choice and women have a choice in this country. that is what roe vs. wade is about, and -- lauer -- >> laura: i know that, but we'reki talking about her commes about how it adds to the

and really enjoying this moment of transparency in the democrat party. they are openly embracing socialism, they are telling the truth about abortion. remember, they said abortion is health care, their favoritede euphemism for us, we now see the truth. it is about power, it is about profits, that is what abortion is about, and you made a really great point by the way in the very beginning, laura, when you talk about the number of women w who are no longer -- you are prevented by entering the workforce because of roe vs. wade. those are 27 million women, by the way, mostly minorities, who are no longer in the workforce, not contributing to our country, aren't paying taxes, aren't paying toward social security t, aren't venturing to cure cancer, aren't running for president, and i actually appreciate your honesty and transparency about what abortion really is about. it's about a person. >> since when is abortion about profits? i've never heard -- >> the sale of baby body parts, give me a break. there were congressionaln.
