tv The Ingraham Angle FOX News December 20, 2018 11:00pm-12:00am PST
11:00 pm
>> laura: dan bongino if you think that's rhythm, i have to check out your dance moves, my friend. i couldn't find her in that shadow thing. >> dan: laura you see my dance moves you can't unsee it, you have to bleach your eyes. >> laura: you're the male version of elaine on seinfeld 89 it's worse. she looks like john travolta compared to me. >> laura: we're invite sebastian gorka you next year. merry christmas. >> dan: merry christmas. >> laura: i'm laura ingraham, this is the "ingraham angle" from washington tonight. when the this seat doesn't work for the american people, the american people go to work for themselves. tonight we're going to speak with a man behind a go fund me effort to finance the border wall. only three days this has been up he's already raised $9 million. story of the can do american spirit is in action. were anti-trump forces inside gop leadership responsible for
11:01 pm
the dirty dossier being spread throughout the media? an investigation with peter switzer at the head. 2018 comes to a close, we'll bring you the highlights of the worse media offenses of the year. governor mike huckabee, howie kurtz break down the videotape. also tonight the christmas police are back. we just have an excuse to use our christmas police video thing which i really love. how the u.s. postal service canceled one family's stamp over a claim that the stamp was too religious at christmas. you will not believe it. we begin tonight with this. donald trump making a stand for his wall! it's what voters wanted, but leadership stood in his way. trump is now forcing the hand of democrats, threatening a shutdown. >> president trump: i've made my position very clear. any measure that funds the government must include border security. it has to. it is the solemn promise to protect and defend the united
11:02 pm
states of america and it is our sacred obligation. we have no choice. >> laura: joining me now are two republicans engaged in this site. steve scalise and congressman sean duffy of wisconsin. fox's chief political correspondent ed hen try joins us too. congressman scalise you had the votes but the senate looks shaky. are we headed today a shutdown tomorrow? i think it was important today. when nancy pelosi was in the oval office with the president and chuck schumer and she said mr. president you don't have the votes in the house to fund the wall and today we put up a massive vote with a large margin of republicans that said we're going to stand with this president, fund the wall and we gave him serious leverage in whatever negotiations he's going to have with the senate. they have to confront this issue knowing we have the president's back at the house. >> laura: a lot of my listeners are watching and thinking how
11:03 pm
are we always in this position? it's the end of the year. we're rushing to get out of town. no traffic in dc, everyone is gone. you guys are there, we're here. everyone is gone. paul ryan said we're going to have a fight, we're going to have a conversation about the border wall. two years in the house majority, two years senate majority we wait until the end of december to deal with an issue that the american people want dealt with i think we were set up to lose, not win. we should have had this budget fight last week. >> laura: how about last spring we could have done it last week or this tuesday where we would have passed a bill that will funded the border wall before the senate acted. the 20th of december, two weeks before nancy pelosi takes over and think we have leverage? this is idiotic. we just passed a bill on criminal justice remorm. democrats want, which we'll get no credit for. why did we negotiate?
11:04 pm
give us $5 billion. >> laura: we were talking earlier, i had not thought about that. the president did not run on criminal justice reform. i'm glad it pass add i am not. >> laura: that's fine. but he isn't getting credit for it, he won't get credit for it. but if you want to use it, go use it in a way that advances the trump agenda. ed henry has information for us about where things stand in the senate. everyone is going to follow my tweets throughout the next 48 hours. i said earlier mitch mcconnell should fight for this wall as hard as he fought for kavanaugh. actually it's probably more important in the long-term survival of the country he only needs 51 votes. i've been talking to senate republicans in private. they're saying they're hopeful they can get the 51 votes to pass. congressman scalise and duffy are talking about it as well. the challenge is republicans
11:05 pm
like bob corker, you mentioned there's not a lot of traffic, bob corker told fox tonight he's retiring from tennessee, he's already driving home. >> laura: that's a disgrace will they be pulled back because of wall funding? we'll see. someone inside the white house said think about it, put yourself in the shoes of president trump, he was told we're going to repeal and replace obama care, wall funding, out of afghanistan and siraj wahhaj once we defeated isis, a lot of priorities he didn't just campaign on and promise but he won on in 2016 he hasn't been able to follow-up on. look at the tariffs, people inside the white house remind me establishment republicans tell the president don't do it. but for president trump standing up against canada, the dairy farmers, in congressman duffy's district wouldn't have been helped in wisconsin >> laura: time and again the
11:06 pm
president's instincts on these issues were spot on. he was pulled back from his instincts by the experts. i think some of them were foreign policy experts that are now thankfully gone or treasury experts, his in stiffens on this are right. you have to watch chuck schumer, they're playing a big game on capitol hill today. is in what he said about the shut down. watch. >> president trump is plunging the country into chaos. he said in front of us he would be proud to shut down the government. it is nothing to be proud of. the bottom line is simple the trump temper tantrum will shut down the government but it will not get him his wall. >> laura: congressman scalise, temper tantrum. i don't think so, he campaigned on this, won on this, he deserves the republicans to get behind him and put the democrats back on their heels, $5 billion, that's what we're arguing about? this looks like another
11:07 pm
schumer shut down. a few years ago chuck schumer voted for a border wall. he's going to have a hard time reconciling that. he's making it personal. he have doesn't want donald trump to get money for the wall because he doesn't want donald trump to get a win. the american people see donald trump fighting for them to secure the border. it's about border security. it's been about this throughout his campaign. he won on this issue as one of the front and the center issues. he's actually doing it. if khgs wants to say we're going to have a shutdown, the american people know this is about border security. you're for it or against it. we have people in the caravan who are known criminals, attacking our border patrol agents at the border. >> laura: he says it's chaos. spend realtime not just a photo op they do when they go up to the border patrol people trying to usher in migrants, the tijuana government knows chaos, mexico has seen the chaos, cartels getting enriched by
11:08 pm
chaos. that is old. nancy pelosi said this earlier today. >> there are no votes in the house, majority of votes for a wall, no matter where you are that's exactly right. >> laura: you proved her wrong. >> i think i the want to check the vote list, $5 billion: steve scalise did a great job counting the votes. >> laura: could schumer be wrong? he could be wrong. nancy pelosi is more concerned about her votes to become the speaker than securing the border. we have agreement on all the funding but for the $5 billion for the wall. that's the only thing holding up funding the government versus shutting the government down. chuck schumer and nancy talking to the american people, donald trump has to do an oval office address >> laura: i've said this for a year. >> talk about the families that have lost loved ones to the -- so much money for out of home
11:09 pm
placement follow kids that have lost parents to drug abuse, take away the photos of the kids at the border. >> laura: they personalize it, they say the death of the 7 year old girl is on your shoulders. >> on average every day we stop ten known or suspected terrorists from coming into america. last year alone our i.c.e. agents saved over 900 kids from human trafficking. those are real kids satisfied today because of what we're doing to secure the border. who knows how many we didn't catch. thank god we have president trump fighting to secure the border. him having an address would be great. >> laura: i've begged him on air. this is the most important issue to the american people today. it's the government and immigration. those two issues are the top of the list for the people. government meaning working against the people, and immigration. that's it. got to address the country on this.
11:10 pm
not tweets, address the country, lay it out. i'm going to har range on this harangue on this. the mattis resignation, by the reaction in the hours following you would have thought we decided on a ground invasion into foreign land. here was nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. >> everything that indicates stability, everything that indicates strength, everything that indicates knowledge, is leaving this administration. general kelly, general mattis, so many others mcmaster. exactly. it's chaos. now in this administration. >> i'm shaken by the resignation of general mattis. for what it means to our country, for the message it sends to our troops. for the indication of what his thing is of the commander in chief. >> laura: it sends the message to our troops you're coming
11:11 pm
home. obama went through four secretaries of defense. i do not remember the freak out. i thought pelosi & company were for pulling troops back once we actually have victory. i'm really confused about where they are. >> you're right. when the president is for something they've been for a long time they don't want to admit it on it trade and other issues as well. i think you made an important point a moment ago about senator schumer as well and pushing the chaos narrative. every time there's a development in the mueller investigation we hear the walls are closing in and then it physician physicia physicianle physicianless out. his letter was blistering in terms of his differences with the president on syria. watch what lindsey graham is saying. he's warning don't make the same mistake that barack obama made in terms of pulling out of iraq that you could have a terrorist safe haven?
11:12 pm
afghanistan. i hear your the point laura. the president campaigned directly in 2016 not just on repeal and replace and trade and tariffs, he said we're not the world's policeman. he was honest about that in terms of syria and afghanistan which is now the longest war ever. >> laura: 17 years. men and women -- guys, everyone has to reframe. we're watching schumer with his glasses down on the end of his nose, we're supposed to think he's really serious about this. remember what donald trump campaigned on. let's watch. >> president trump: we're getting out of the nation building business. our moments of greatest strength came when politics ended at the water's edge. we have created the vacuums that have allowed terrorism to grow and thrive. i want to help all of our allies but we are losing billions and billions of dollars. we cannot be the policemen of the world.
11:13 pm
>> laura: he won in part on a non-interventionist platform. obama beat bush on a non-interventionist platform. adam kinsinger running around acting like it's 2003 all over again. mattis has a different point of view, that's why donald trump was elected president. go run for president. i the found that letter to be surprising coming from him. and a little dismissive we only have one commander in chief. the president and secretary of state tillerson had differences on foreign poll litigation, mike pompeo came in and he's doing a great job representing our country and the president. he will find somebody else to serve in this role. it's an important role. secretary mattis did a great job of getting rid of isis. they're not gone all the way but ed a great job. >> laura: they don't want to leave he's going to find another general to serve this country well as his defense secretary. >> laura: the line is if we leave the chaos will ensue which
11:14 pm
means we can never leave because we are in these countries that are by their very constitution very chaotic there are 2000 troops not engaged in battle but given advice 1234s why is it a national security interest? why are we there? we're going to be there forever. let's take a poll of the american people what happens with russia and iran? >> laura: the country is smaller than france do you see the territory to the eye ran who wants to kill the big satan america or the little satan israel? >> laura: how much money is china spending in iraq and afghanistan. >> laura: none probably none. >> laura: we're 20 trillion in debt the president gets to call the ball and he deserves a staff around him that supports him. >> laura: it seems unnecessarily petty of an american hero, mattis, and i thought that was surprising you know what? i think we have the right to disagree in our party. we don't all fall in line.
11:15 pm
we can have different opinions. >> laura: we'll see if bushism comes back in 2020 president trump is rebuilding our military and that's something he campaigned on. >> laura: he's not squandering the military either. guys thank you so much. i want to get to a tragic but important story outside of washington that relates to what we're talking about. we have to tie this all together for the american people. a community ravaged by the lack of action on the part of our government and local government, state government who just turn their backs. we're talking about visalia california that sits between l.a. and san francisco. in that town over the course of two harrowing days earlier this week gustavo garcia a man twice removed from this country went on what authorities call a reign of terror. a 24 hour shooting spree killing at least two and injuring many more. [gunshots] >> deputies taking gunfire from
11:16 pm
this man 36 year old gustavo garcia. it all went down on road 140 and avenue 256. bullets ring out. >> laura: now while the circumstances of this are tragic on their own, the run up to it is even more so. two days before this reign of terror he was arrested by the tulare county sheriff's tempts for being under the influence of a controlled substance, held in county jail for ten hours before being released, even though i.c.e. officials had issued an immigration hold on him. this arrest wasn't garcia's first brush with the law. he has a vile the lent criminal past immigration and customs enforcement tells fox 26 news garcia had been deported twice. in the past the sheriff's office could have at lettered immigration because of garcia's extensive rap sheet which includes armed robbery more than 15 years ago. >> laura: you might be asking yourself why did the cops let him go despite the i.c.e. hold
11:17 pm
given his past? was it the police's fault? i.c.e. did file a detainer as soon as it learned of garcia's arrest friday. and this would be enough to keep him in custody in other states. boudreaux says his office no longer recognizes those detain percent and it can't reach out to i.c.e. for misdemeanor crimes. >> laura: before sb54 gustavo garcia would have been turned over to i.c.e. officials, that's how we've always done it. after sb54 we no longer have the power to do. that we should note the tu player county board of supervisors voted to oppose california sanctuary state law in may of this year. even though it's symbolic it shows a citizenry standing up for common sense. joining me is tulare county sheriff's mike boudreaux. sheriff i know our viewers are
11:18 pm
shaking their heads going how can this happen in the united states of america where we ee met morning noon and night about the tragic circumstances of people who are trying to come into the country, i get it there are tragic circumstances, it's tough yet the politicians, did you get a call from pelosi? did you get a call from gavin newsome? any other officials in california concerned about what's happening there? >> you know the only phone call that i got was from the aclu demon eyeing the actions that we took which is really unfortunate. tulare county is how it's pronounced, actually. >> laura: sorry that's fine. we're an agricultural community. we produce billions of dollars worth that is sent all over the world. we have a large undocumented community. but we also have a large group of people who don't commit these types of crimes on a daily basis. what our focus on is the criminal element that ends up in
11:19 pm
my jail, that i no longer have the tools to reach out to i.c.e., my counterpart, law enforcement partners and i'm no longer able to recognize the dee the an never through the sanctuary state law as well as the 9th court circuit, indicating that the detainers don't meet due process. because of those two combined efforts we no longer can tell phone i.c.e. and even ask the question why is this detainer placed? nor can we recognize the detainer itself. >> laura: sheriff hold on. can you give a heads up to i.c.e.? can you give them a heads up? can you call and say we're about to release this individual or we have this individual in custody? even if they can't come and interview him or examine him, is there any notification at all you could give to i.c.e. we're not allowed to talk to our counterparts under these laws. >> laura: where is the conservative lawsuit against this? this is an outrage. i have to play something for you.
11:20 pm
this was nancy pelosi's claim about what sanctuary policies actually accomplish. watch our city of san francisco is a sanctuary city. and we see it as a place where it makes us safer, it makes us safer because people can go to school, they can get driver's license, they can be witnesses against other violence that they see in the community. >> laura: your community feeling safer tonight? they're not feeling safer. but i will say that we don't -- we're not against our undocumented community. we're not against immigrants. we're not against dreamers or daca. i think that it needs to be very clear. our community as a whole, even our undocumented community, i sat with a large group of people, they're not afraid of law enforcement or being deported. >> laura: that's a lie that at this hear morning, noon and night every time we deal with a sanctuary policy case, with ed this in new jersey a couple weeks ago, the advocate that
11:21 pm
came on said oh, no, we're not going to have immigrants cooperating with are thes authorities, that's just bunk that is bunk. >> laura: this is the line. you don't see it at all in your community? that's not true. we see our community reaching out to us. what they're afraid of is that the criminal will return to their community because we can't report them to i.c.e. >> laura: and commit domestic violence, rape, burglary, robbery, other offenses against property and people. sheriff, thank you for the heads up and for speaking up on what we are going to be following all throughout the next year because so many people won't do it. we're going to do it. coming up, when our leaders fail, americans begin to take action into their own hands in a good way. an air force veteran and triple amputee is finding his own way to pay for the border wall. he's going to tell us about it next. ♪ there's no place like home ♪
11:25 pm
argh! i'm trying... ♪ yippiekiyay. ♪ mom. ♪ ♪ ♪ . >> laura: >> now this really is a story about america's quintessential can do attitude. whether their leaders fail them, our citizens take matters into their own hands. enter brian kolfage a triple amputee air force vet who started a go fund me page for the wall that politicians don't
11:26 pm
want to fund. he started this just three days ago. in that short time he's already raised more than $9.7 million. what he hopes to achieve, here is brian himself. the critics will say this is just a publicity stunt. it's not going to make a dent in the total cost which would be at least $20 billion. i'm not great at math but that's a pretty tough hill to climb. what do you say to those krit sniks i say they're full of crap. this is the united states, we can do whatever we want. if people want to donate to that wall and gave their money, they can do it. what's 80 bucks for 60 million people? the common person can give that kind of money. this is not just about republicans and conservatives, there's an out pouring of democrats that are messaging me and giving to this wall fund. you won't hear the liberal media saying that. this is america coming together,
11:27 pm
they want the wall and that's right funding it. >> laura: you've had run ins before with facebook blocking various accounts you've had, had a military beer business you had, you give 20% to military charities, you're a triple amput amputee, air force veteran, i know you hired counsel, trying to fight them on this. are you seeing any resistance to your postings something i've gotten a lot, are you getting resistance at all in the social media community? i'm not allowed on facebook any more. my company military grade coffee company was out right banned, facebook people told me i'm not allowed to use it. i don't use facebook, i've gone to twitter. it's ridiculous the way that these companies treat people. americans are just pissed off, they're pissed off in general and mad with the way politics
11:28 pm
and politicians are handling things and big tech. a lot of problems that are bubbling up right now. it's a combination of things, americans are just not happy. >> laura: why the wall? why is this an issue for you? well, i mean the wall is an important thing for me. i feel it's near and dear to my heart, and it was a promise that was made to americans. and you know this is a very important part of our nation, our country. we need security, we are a nation of laws, we need to enforce these laws, we can't have people coming across our border that are unchecked. it doesn't take many people toll stage an attack. we need to know who is coming across the border. this wall is in our constitution. >> laura: wait, wait what do you mean the wall is in our constitution? where in the constitution you know what i mean, it's part of our nation, part of our laws. >> laura: you're talking about our sovereignty yes, we're a nation of laws.
11:29 pm
>> laura: the wall is not in the constitution trump wall is not in the constitution. >> laura: i get your point. he made the promise, if that wall doesn't get built it's hard to see trump winning in 2020. i know people don't like hearing that. if this wall doesn't get built i think it's going to dee moral lies a lot of people, we're going to have more problems. you have to get the thing built. mikel jollett, some person that people follow on twitter was saying the following, right now in america people are donating money they don't have to build a wall they don't need to solve a problem that doesn't exist. and i guess the band airborne toxics effect basically saying you're bad at math because it would take until 2086, you're race ifrts, bad at math. there's no substantive argument about why a wall may or may not work. i'm sure you're going to get a
11:30 pm
lot of that i mean that's just the liberal tactics and media. they're going to attack me and my family. they can go ahead and do what they want. we're not stopping, we're going to keep on pushing through. no matter what congress does f. they pass this through we're not stopping, we're going to see what the senate does, see how this plays out, and then americans aren't happen a. they're going to keep giving to the go fund me. we're going to keep push trisha garcia. >> laura: $9.7 million, it's one of the topping fund me efforts in just three days in the united states for the whole year. brian we're going to be following this. thank you for your service to this country. you suffered greatly for our freedom and you continue to inspire so many people. it thank you so much, we appreciate it. merry christmas to your family. to some troubling things inside a florida court. buzz feed was sued after they published the bogus dossier on president trump. they won in court.
11:31 pm
but that's not actually the interesting part of the story. inside the filing were revelations about certain republicans that will shock a lot of you. an associate to the long time senator john mccain initially provided a copy to buzz feed in the first place. second a paul ryan aid and congressman adam kinsinger were given an early look at the dossier before others even became aware of it. here now is peter schweizer. why does this not surprise me that when someone is trying to shop an anti trump document, as salacious and ridiculous as that was, that they went to big time neo conservatives who are diametrically opposed to trump on things like the wall, speaking of the wall, non-interventionist philosophy
11:32 pm
and economic nationalism, go down the line? mccain and kinsinger and paul ryan had access to it as well yeah, you're right laura. i mean this speaks to something profound about washington's political culture. think about this for a second. if mccain's office or ryan's office had been given a sell lashs unverified dossier about one of their colleagues, do you think they would have been leaking it around to the press corps? i really doubt it. this speaks to the fact that donald trump is a disrupter. there is a deep cultural clash between him and the washington establishment. and it speaks to the fact that they do not like the fact that he is disrupting the way things are done in washington, d.c., the same way that on the political left bernie sanders and congresswoman elect ocasio-cortez is doing on the left side of the political spectrum. i think it speaks to the fact that what donald trump represents, it's those policies
11:33 pm
you talked about, but it's about changing the dynamics of how washington works. they do not like it and they want to stop it. >> laura: they want the status quo. let's face it, a lot of people make a lot of money. a regular folk out there, they see what people make as lobbyists or consultants and these are people who haven't won elections in a decade. yet they still make tens of millions of dollars with ad buys and design and placement and consulting contracts. so they like the status quo. trump comes in like a wrecking ball and says this whole town stinks to high heaven and it makes them nervous. they're freaking out about the syria withdrawal. i bet most americans don't even know we're in syria. they're thinking don't we have problems in cincinnati to deal with? but we're in syria in 2000 after we've decimated ice anies i think he's held up a mirror to the corruption in washington and they don't like what they're
11:34 pm
saying. trump is the problem, trump is the corrupt one, it's got to be exactly. consider something like deregulation. everybody thinks it's great because it frees up american businesses, makes them more competitive but it costs a lot of people in washington, d.c. money. here is why. the reason regulations, whether environmental or financial are so complicated and complex is they're define rd signed that way. because you have an entirely industry in washington, d.c. that's interpreting rules and laws that nobody else understands. well if you come in and say you know what? we're getting rid of these thousands of pages of regulations now suddenly that's a huge revenue stream for washington consultants that is gone. that's one of the ways in which the swamp is being changed in washington, d.c. what i say to people is agree with trump on certain policies or not, there's no disputing the fact that he is a disruptier.
11:35 pm
we like them in silicon valley and the enlt statement business, i think it's good in politics too. it's the wealthiest place in the united states, washington, d.c. >> laura: it's a problem when there are as many cranes. we talk about the measure of croppings are the number of cranes in any given neighborhood in washington, d.c., it is wild. keep the money spending even if we don't have it. peter v. a great holiday, merry christmas and all that jazz. we'll see you in the new year. up next, what were the worst media moments of 2018? oh,ly make any of those? i hope not. governor mike huckabee and howie kurtz take us through the video and the most embarrassing moments when we get back.
11:38 pm
11:39 pm
lowlights from our past year. our friends at gradient helped us out. tom elliot does a great job there. here to take us through the tape. mike huckabee, host of media because on fox news, howie kurtz. gents i want to first start with the immediamedia's once warm em with a man not on the top of the list. >> stormy daniels lawyer michael avenatti joaning us now. michael avenatti is with us now. michael avenatti joins us now. joining us now from los angeles is michael avenatti. >> we want more of the spooning comments they made toward avenatti. he was hard to book >> laura: he was the belle of the ball until he wasn't. should the media have seen this coming with the melt down of avenatti. >> the degree to which they put this guy on t.v. to pedal his
11:40 pm
claims and develop his presidential delusions was something. the worst by far was putting on avenatti it make the claims of julie swetnick to vouch for this come that accused brett kavanaugh of things. >> laura: that's what i want to see. tell us more about that. oh really, tell us more. all that unsubstantiated garbage. that should go down as one of the biggest black eyes of the media over the past 12 months exactly. >> hubbing wants to describe this as well. governor, i think michael avenatti is just one of those figures who will occasionally pop-up on like if they have a celebrity hollywood squares maybe, he will be the lower right square or something. i don't see avenatti playing much of a role in public life in the future well i think his history is up like a rocket, down like a rock, back under the rock from
11:41 pm
where he crawled. that's the end of the story for michael avenatti i'm pretty sure. >> laura: number two on the list involves actual dumpster diving as journ lifts attempt to find some dirt, literally tying president trump to russia it's quickly, you looked through the trash there? what did you find? yeah, we did. we came here expecting this office to be empty. but in fact all day here we've been here throughout the course of the day, people have been going in-and-out. we went to the trash cans because we saw people dumping rubbish. new computers are being delivered and they're throwing away the rubbish. >> laura: somehow the accent makes it more interesting. >> inspect the rubbish. not that big a deal but it smells. >> laura: governor this tells you how low they can go. going through garbage now? i guess you can do that. but for what?
11:42 pm
what did they get? i thought they were doing a tour of their newsroom, because that's what we typically see, with a lot of these networks. i mean anything, anything, and that does show that if you're willing to go through people's trash, hoping to get something negative on conservatives, you're pretty desperate. and this is a media that's pretty desperate, no doubt about it. that is hill layer rouse. >> laura: howie what's the rating for the media now, approval rating something it hovers around 20%? >> maybe up to 30. >> laura: it's up to 30 now, that's actually pretty good no, howie. >> this is not my rating. howie? >> laura: governor, we have to check that, do that google search raymond. is it really that? i have to tell you, howie, the flu is more popular than the media right now. >> well it is on a downward spiral and some of these examples show why people don't
11:43 pm
trust the press. >> laura: let's move on to number three where some cnn hosts did the best to test the limits of the f cc it's the craziest "bleep" i've ever heard.

all swear, maybe not the governor, but not at tv if we can possibly not i don't know if you notice but they quit serving sandwiches in the cnn cafeteria and now they just sell soap for the people to eat that because they're so potty mouth, every brand of soap in one interview cnn called trump a bser using the whole word four times, it goes to show when you are talking about donald trump, the standards go out the window, you can get down and dirty and curse all you want because it's okay. >> laura: we have networks on other networks saying he's a racist, he's a lie ar. >> he's a blanking racest. >> laura: it shows you both governor and howie, shows, i hate the way trump derangement syndrome has become such a

cliche but something is brewed into the psyche that they're not able to have friendships with whom they disagree. people i've been friends with in other media outlets, i used to like don lemon, we were joking earlier, i used to have frank rich, john kerry, we can disagree. but now they're so -- it's burrowed in anger and resentment and upsetment. >> you can't frater thighs. >> laura: you can't have a conversation. you're a horrible, rotten person if you ever said anything nice about donald trump. it's oozing out of their pores which is very strange. the last one on their list is don lemon describing the biggest terror threat facing our country right now we have to stop demon eyeing people and realize the biggest terror threat in this country is white men, most of them radicalized to the right.

11:47 pm
i regret having to say this it? >> yes. >> laura: howie, remember this ad from cnn? >> this is a whole bunch of bananas. somewhere buried within it is an apple. some people might try to tell you that there's no point in looking for it. but there's only one way to know what's been covered up. you start digging. [ music playing ] . >> laura: move over james early jones. i liked james early jones better. this is cnn, don't slip on the banana peel. >> kind of a fruitcake ad. democracy dies in the darkance. >> laura: du-du-du. >> somehow it wasn't in danger when president obama was president. >> i'm all for self promotion

but let's keep it real. >> thank you very much. still to come, a message from rush limbaugh on my last radio show today. plus, had y huh-oh, the christm police is next. all money managers might seem the same, but some give their clients cookie cutter portfolios. fisher investments tailors portfolios to your goals and needs. some only call when they have something to sell. fisher calls regularly so you stay informed. and while some advisors are happy to earn commissions whether you do well or not. fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management.

[ music playing ] . >> laura: we love that little stager. tavia hunt, wife of kansas chiefs owner clark hunt was getting into the holiday spirit and writing out her christmas cards. she ordered this photo on a customize able stamp. you can see her beautiful family standing there in front of saint basil's cathedral in moscow. beautiful picture. well the united states post office didn't think so. soon after they placed the order tavia was told by stamp is.com that all religious contents forbidden. joining me is har har ram, where does this stand now? first of all when is the last

time a religious service of any great number in attendance was held at saint basil's cathedral? i think it's been quite a long time. it's a museum now yeah it certainly has been a long time. that's the problem with these postal regulations. they're so broad prohibiting anything religious at all, that they would encompass something such as just a cathedral in the background, it's not even being used as a cathedral any more. >> laura: under what statutory norm are they operating? this is not establishing a state religion, even by the most amorpho amorphous, ambiguous tests that the supreme court established. it seems like it falls squarely within one's free expression rights under the first amendment. i don't get it. >> that's right. >> laura: you could probably show a picture of smoon at hooters and that's okay but you

can't be with a cathedral in the background. i don't understand the argument you can read all the facts and interaction on our website at first liberty.org. here is what is interesting about this, the postal service prints religious stamps, they're just saying you're not allowed to. they passed a regulation in may of 2018 saying nothing ream listening juice can be on a customized stamp. the postal service responded to us today and said you can't have anything religious on a customized stamp, we'll sell you ours but you can't have one. >> laura: the ma donna stamp is always sold-out. they have beautiful stamps but not the one i happen to want, i like that one. listen to the usps policy, acceptable images or text must not contain content that is

unsuitable for all ages and audiences including any depiction of political, religious, violent or sexual content. how is religious lumped in with violent and sexual content? >> look religion i guess is the new pornography for the postal service. we're trying to get to the bottom of it. here is what's great with the postal service, they don't have to go through a complicated rule making process, they can change this tomorrow if they want to. >> laura: it's going to be changed. this is lunacy. thanks for bringing this to our attention. this has to be done away with. a radio legend helped me sign off my last radio show today. you don't want to miss it. last bite, next. ..
