you can send us videotapes. maybe we'll air them. emails at sean hannity on twitter. let not your heart be troubled. why? because laura ingraham is standing by, with all the news of the night. laura. >> laura: hey sean fantastic show. i am laura ingraham and this is the "ingraham angle" from washington tonight. why are the democrats so scared of howard schultz? i go one-on-one with a hillary clinton advisor who is looking to sink the barista billionaire. plus a shocking exclusive to bring you tonight, a former dhs special agent shares the harrowing tails of human trafficking rescue. a movie being made about him and why he says we should absolutely finish the wall for the sake of these endangered children. and the court is in session. a pair of lawyers argue two hot hollywood legal cases. and judge ingraham will rule on

the merits. but first, racial accusations and the presumption of guilt. that's the focus of tonight's "angl "angle". >> alright. it's now gotten so bad in america that wearing a trump hat is basically considered a hate crime the maga hat care us a certain connotation that pro vehicles a conditioned reaction from many people. especially from marginalized people. when you wear that maga hat you are saying build that wall. >> laura: yeah well believing in a border wall is racist there's nothing magical about a 30 foot wall. in fact that is become now a symbol really a symbol of this administration's policies and it's a racist symbol. >> laura: urging assimilation like tom brokaw did is xenophobic part of what makes america great, brokaw didn't seem to get that he's a little out of touch,

probably not up to speed as to where things are today and age. >> laura: only ale legendary broadcaster and you're an agist. working with trump on much of anything like crippminal justic reform is selling out a lot of people got mad at me i said i'm willing to work with him on that issue. they said it would never happen you'll never get there, trump is going to sell you down the river, nobody is going to cooperate and it was the opposite >> laura: well it was success. the goal my friends is to brand an entire belief system as immoral, evil, toxic and of course racist. liberals who used to love discourse, i remember them when they used to debate. they now prefer the easier route, call someone a gnat sir or closet kkk member and you're done. you don't have to do any intellectual heavy lifting, use the pejorative du jour as a baseball bat and smash your

opponents across the face and claim victory. in the kavanaugh they showcased uncorroborated accusations to get a conviction. thankfully the tactics failed miserably there. that didn't stop the left from continuing this line of attack. the examples appear almost daily. this year we learned a she have and partner, lopez posted this welcoming tweet to potential customers. it's sins been deleted but here it is. it hasn't happened yet but if you come to my restaurant wearing a maga hat you aren't going to get served same as if you are wearing a swastika white hood or any other symbol of hate. this is the same hatred we saw hurled at those covington high school boys. ♪ ♪ . >> laura: that's catchy. i'm beginning to like that tune.

like lightning the media instantly branded them as maga hatted racists, products of an evil education. only later did we learn that it was the kids who had been harassed and confronted by adults. they were guilty of the only standing their ground with respect and grace. ma go imagine hats and all. well now there's a new maga incident, don't you know. again the media is rushing anything to judgment before all the evidence is in. last tuesday empire actor jesse smollett claims that he was walking home at two am on the freezing cold streets of chicago when he was assaulted. two assailants allegedly beat him, poured a liquid on him, shouted racist and homophobic slurs and put a rope around his neck. authorities have been investigating and scouring surveillance video. they see smollett walking into an apartment complex with a rope

around his neck but no assault. chicago fbi and pd have been working around the clock and given the stream nature it has made them skeptical. smollett added a detail he initially omitted. he claimed his attackers yelled this is maga country as they fled the scene. we're glad mr. smollett seems to be doing okay. unlike much period of time media we will not pronounce judgment before all the facts are in. we're not going to entertain these conspiracy theories on the internet. i find all of it hideous. it is hurtful to the country when partisans rush in to create political escape goats for every individual crime or infraction. reality is often more complicated than that. another fact, mr. smollett has written vile things about the president.

things i will not read aloud here. now, i don't care how nasty his tweets are. any violent attack on any american for whatever reason should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, particularly if it was motivated by race, religion or sexual preference. by the same token it is irrelevant responsible and frankly unjust to tag all trump supporters as racist and haters because you disagree with the president or because some nut bag did something hateful. this destructive narrative has infected our political life and maybe for a reason. renown after freight can american whiter shelby steal summed it up on my podcast. democratic party and liberalism generally in america has been completely dependent on fighting some large american evil, some menace in american life that

will then justifies them taking power. those men a menace are fading. america has transformed and evolved morally from what it once was. >> laura: but too many democrats don't want you to hear that. they resort to using shame, guilt, and grievance to get their political way. which basically ends up accomplishing nothing. and it ends up helping no one. except those whose pockets are lined biped listening victim hood. by any objective analysis it donald trump's policies are working and they're not scary and they're not racist and they're not anti woman or anti immigrant. they're very pragmatic. renegotiate bad trade deals, stand up to china. get nato countries to pay their fair share. enforce the rule of law at the border. appoint judges who stay in their constitutional lanes. stay out of the unwinnable wars.

cut taxes, and red tape. now not only is this conservative agenda working, it's working really well for minorities. yet the resistance doesn't care. they want you to be angry and recent feel. no pursuit of happiness for you. so what should republicans be doing? i'll tell you what they should be doing. don't play defense. don't apologize for your beliefs. actively engage in minority communities. don't be bullied out of them. listen to the concerns of the people, even when it's uncomfortable, and it will be. explain your policies without the filter of an unfriendly media. the power of self reliance, the power of strong families. single mothers in chicago who i met back in the fall, they understand that. the power of making good choices every day. let's all reinforce these basic trukts amongst ourselves and also in those communities by showing up and actually having a conversation. wouldn't that be nice?

the president and his cabinet should hit the road for america. travel to cities like oakland and chicago and baltimore. not just to safe zones in red states. don't seed the territory to the hucksters who stoke victim hood and market the same tired ideas that have kept generations in poverty. as to those red hats? well i would continue to wear them whenever and wherever you like. and when doing so, be sure to show everyone around you what true tolerance, kindness and inclusiveness looks like. and that's the angle. joining me now with reaction, horace cooper, and dee dawkins, here with me in washington and in atlanta, bruce level, the executive director of the national diversity coalition for trump t horace let's start with you. why is this broad racism brush so generously applied to trump and his supporters?

because it's effective. it is a very good way to stop people from being able to see how important the policies are, how effective they are, how impactful they are. it is working and it will keep continuing to occur unless we can call these people out for doing it. >> laura: dee there are a lot of people watching tonight who come to the table with preconceived notions about conservatives, about what conservatives believe. what in my angle do you disagree with? well laura, i just think this. i don't think that all trump supporters are racist. but i do think some racists are trump supporters. what we need to do is make sure we have civil if conversation goes in this country. to be honest with you i like the criminal justice reform. his rhetoric turns people off and it has certain bases all worked up. >> laura: i like the fact that he said, i get the problem, sometimes, with tonality, and

i'm not saying that doesn't matter. but results, i think are so important p in other words you can have a great tone, get everything right, every tweet right, everything is compassionate and then the cities are a disaster or unemployment is terrible or wages are depress ed or there aren't 480,000 new jobs for all people. i think there's never any sense of balance in the coverage of these issues where race really comes to the fore, sometimes really unfairly. i want to help this. i actually think there are a lot of people out there, i've met them, that are tuning all of this out, they're tuning this out, guys can we have solutions? bruce i know you want to get in here. i think the solutions are there for everyone to see. if we stop shouting at each other and actually just look at what works well you know laura thank you. thanks for having me. the interesting thing about this jam earlier, you know, the

president when he spoke to the urban communities and said what the heck do you have to lose? you have to remember most of these cities and counties and municipalities were under democrat rule for over 40, 50, 60 years. when you take and look at the lowest black unemployment in the history of the united states, when you look at the urban revitalization, pump i think $100 billion plus in these under served communities across the country. highest consumer confidence, highest uptick in black enterprise in terms of black business owners who look like me. >> laura: the far left that is running the democratic party does not care. it's almost like they want you to be angry and upset. minority communities, they have to have people angry or upset otherwise they can't get them to the polls. how are the democrats going to argue to bring the government up to 3.8gdp. are they making that argument? they're not. they're scouring the news to

find little episodes that they can show to create a counter narrative that is false. here is a fact that people didn't talk about during the 2016 campaign. there was a kkk chance man who had a podcast talking all about his support for hillary clinton. if you haven't seen that it's because the media doesn't give that kind of information attention. there's racists on all sides. >> laura: shelby steal is just one of my favorite writers and thinkers, he was on my podcast. he made another point when i asked him about the power, the rise of, frankly impressive young people like alexandria ocasio-cortez liberalism as we practice it today in america and as people like her practice it, is infinitely more -- press sieve to minorities than racism. they're fighting a ghost in resisting her. i'm fighting a real threat, a real enemy. the biggest challenge in american life today is to get

away from the guilt and the shame that we got into, in the 60s, over our past. until we can do that, we're going to be vulnerable to people like her. >> laura: dee well i actually like what she's bringing to the table. the real conversation is -- >> laura: he said her views are more -- press sieve to after from you the can americans than the race it's i am in the past. he went on to say a minority can do anything today, everything, every business, every entrepreneur endeavor that minorities can do everything and that is great progress i think some minorities can do what they want to do. but the playing field has not been leveled. income we have real conversations about praise in this country and where we start and where we go we'll never get to the right place. i don't think that the republican party is the boogie man. i don't think democrats are libtards. we need to have real conversations in this country about race. until we do we're going to

continue to be in this spot that's tired. during eight years of the obama administration the re oh man got to know more black americans than any other group of people. we lost more houses, more automobiles, and guess what? in just two years, in just two years, in just two years sins trump has been president we've seen an absolute reversal on every single industry . >> laura: trump's policies are working. bruce, i think again when you talk about trump's policies and successes that are undeniable by any objective analysis, the answer that most democrats give is but he called certain countries s holes, or look at charlottesville. i am not disputing, but you have joe scarborough who basically can't stand donald trump, and i think we have the sound bite. he and the new cat who wrote the book about trump the staffer

i've never heard of, what's his name, cliff sims? they're not big fans of certain trump things but they will both said the same thing about the man. let's watch for instance we saw him for twelve years behind closed doors, never ever once, i'll say under oath, put into an affidavit, never once heard him say anything close to being racially insensitive. never once. >> laura: i've known him for 18 years, i will completely cronkite news kour. bruce you wouldn't be working for someone that is racist. money know who works in the white house would be working for someone who is racist. now where does the lest go with that? you know i don't know where they're gonna go. laura i will tell you this, i've been with the president sins 2015, i can tell thank you the left has been used as a race card, the real voter suppression to intimidate brown folks like me across the country to keep us from looking at the idea of free enterprise that we can grow a

business, people who look like me. laura i've been a business owner for 27 years out in atlanta. the best job growth is under this president. i quote this, this president is the best history in the history of the united states for black america, yes i said. that there is more movement going on in terms of banking for the you are ban community. go to most of the you are ban communities, gas stations, cleaners, heck the popeyes fried chicken stores are not even owned by black america, with this president with the consumer confidence going into the urban market you will see more and more people who look like me in these communities who will be the job owners and creators. who will go out and cultivate and have their own grocery stores. for once, this president has the plan. we have to stop getting off this emotional stuff. black america stop being emotional. pay attention to the numbers, strongest gdp growth, strongest job unemployment in black

history, these are the things right here we look at. not the emotion. if you want to feel good, go to the spa [ laughter ] >> laura: it's up 6,000 points for two years you can't deny the relative growth for black america. the black american -- >> laura: that is a lie it is true. you have to understand when bush was president, the country tanked and then the economy began to turn around. [ no audiofour of the records black unemployment happened around barack obama. five of the best records for black america have happened under donald trump and you can't deny that. >> laura: bruce i keep going back to if obama had all the answers and if -- when he said none of these manufacturing jobs are going to come back, what is trump going to wave a magic wand

and they're going to come back? 480,000 jobs have been created or came back to the united states because of his policies, 480,000. if obama was so great why didn't he negotiate fast sta or criminal justice reform laura, you know why -- the republicans wouldn't call it on the senate floor. >> laura: laura, the reason why is because candidate trump at the time promised the american people that he would not entertain pay to play that's right the systems for decades have been whooeld and dealed with. this president is not beholden to anyone. everyone that was in the beginning of the campaign that tried to use his name or make a profit ended up in trouble. we are the real people who stand with the president from the beginning because he promised the american people he would not be beholden to special interests and lobbyists, that's what everyone is angry about. he will not sell out the

american people by the people for the people. that's who we are i wouldn't be so happy to be with him. most of his campaign team has been indicted. >> laura: oh, come on. you're better than that here we go it's the truth it was problem with who told us if trump was elected, the end would come k he was wrong they all say that. >> laura: we hope that jesse smollett is okay, too. that whole thing the real 2015 trump people like myself and millions of us who were there from the beginning, we are in it to help this president, we are in this to make this country successful. we did not get in it promised a job. everyone that gets in trouble were wheeling and dealing on the side and not taking care of the president. they were thinking about themselves and yes they deserve to go to jail because they should never have been playing on the side and stuck to their words. >> laura: we have to go. love this will panel, this debate. good for you for being here. we're going to continue this conversation by the way. this isn't going to be a one time deal for us. former dhs special agent who

currently hunts sex traffickers, no kidding, shares his own horror stories. i started reading when i was reading my packet. a little girl smuggled into the u.s. through an area with no barrier or border. >> president trump: i don't expect much coming out of the economy i. i keep hearing the words we'll give you much but not a wall. if they don't give us a wall, it doesn't work. i'm a veteran

or advance or trucks. they don't go through your port of entry. >> laura: well this is an epidemic hiding right under our noses, each year between 14,000 and 17500 people are trafficked into the us. we wanted to speak to an expert. no better one than tim ballard, former dhs special agent who hunts sex traffickers and sara carter who just returned from the border. tim your operation rescues the children. you recently wrote about lillian that, a little girl from guatemala. i spend a lot of time in guatemala, i want to hear about her. people here trafficking and don't know what it is this little girl is kidnapped from her village. eleven years old kept groomed in central america for two years. the goal to get her to the united states. why?

this country is the highest consumer of child sex and child pornography. the traffickers need these kids to get big money into the united states. this little girl was trafficked through the wallless section of the border. >> laura: you know that for a fact? absolutely. i know everything about this case. he goes up, forced into new york city and this is hard to hear but this is the facts and this is reality. 30 to 50 times a day raped for money in this country, by american sex, these pedophiles. the sad thing is the wall would have likely saved her. why? the wall is a law enforcement operation. it forces the traffickers to move their people move their kids through a place where there's alert agents, high technology, and these kids can be rescued. at the same time this is happening i was working on a five year old boy who was kidnapped in mexicali by an american trafficker. but there's a wall there. he was forced to move this child through the port of entry. and we caught him.

and that led to, what this guy was doing by the way, kidnapping mexican children, making child porn in his makeshift studio n. san bernardino dino, california. sole the wall saved this little boy. the difference between illiana -- >> laura: so you tell "the story," and yet there are people, i know you've seen them, on other cable networks, who latched at the president the other day, and happened on morning joe because i watched it and it happened on cnn. someone named pola sandoval. let's watch the president clearly has latched on to this idea that women and children are bound and smuggled across the border. some of those experts who deal with the victims of human trafficking and they say the victims in this, the nightmares they experience, just do not match what with the commander in chief is saying. [ laughter ] >> laura: who is this little twirp? sorry may i say something? you know these guys, they're saying that the president has utilized a movie to get his

information. you know, laugh it up. this is serious. this is not a punch line at a party. these are children who are being raped. what's happening to these kids is ten times worse than anything in any movie i've ever seen. so let's be real for the kids. can we be real for the kids? these kids need us right now. they need this wall so we can rescue them and curb this epidemic. >> laura: the headline in the hill saying trump's anti trafficking rhetoric is a sham excuse for a border wall and inhuman policies, going back to the shut down, et cetera, et cetera. a sham excuse a sham excuse? >> laura: they care about the kids! yeah, exactly. a sham excuse is what they're doing. when they perpetuate lies and they perpetuate a behavior that allows these traffickers and these criminal trafficking organizations to continually use our border to abuse children and women and these are girls and boys, and women and men, this

has to stop. what president trump has done, he has actually the first president of all the time i've covered this border, and i was just in guatemala, and i can vouch for you, the guatemala an government found seven children in the group that i was with who were not with their parents, they were being trafficked for the purpose of sex trafficking and they were able to move them out of the group and rescue them. think of all the kids that aren't rescued. think of all the people that are abused every day under this system, a broken system. >> laura: where are the tem i was in the out there about violence against women. remember that act? that's right. >> laura: they're too busy fighting for infanticide in virginia, too busy for that. kill the babies. too busy for partial birth abortion thing. msnbc you mentioned they were saying he go it all from a movie. boy were you right. look at it it in a normal administration it would be insane to think about, joke about the president of the united states seeing stuff in a movie, and him maybe

thinking it was real. but in this case, women tied up with tape, put in car and driven across border and the amazing magical mexican vehicles and the prayer rug they appear to be from the same movie president trump had dramatic new talking points on his manufactured crisis at the border like human traffickers gagging women with tape as they drag them across the border illegally, if that sounds like something you would see in a movie, well maybe it is bottom line is this, what really happens, couldn't be sewn in a movie, it's way worse. i've seen that movie, it's way worse. >> laura: what are it they saying he made up? the fact that people are gagged or the fact that it happens? i think they're suggesting it's not happening this is disinformation laura. >> laura: so these arrests, and what dhs and the fbi are reporting is it all a conspiracy to provide fake information to justify a border wall?

i'm trying to figure this out. it's actually not funny at all it's not. it actually hurts me because i've seen these kids. i've held them in my arms. >> laura: what is the sex trafficking victim's path back? it's so difficult, it's long. we focus a lot of our efforts on the after care. this is when thursday so bad to see people laughing, making this a punch line of a party. this is real guys, this is really happening. >> laura: how do they ever come back? after having it done to you it's possible. we have rehabilitation, shelters. we're in 20 countries, we manage and provide for shelters and rehabilitation centers. and it's the saddest thing on the planet. >> laura: how do you -- you saw a lot when you were down there? >> i've seen this and talked to so many young girls n2014 when the unaccompanied minors were flowing over there was a young 1 four years old girl schmidt go off alone. i speak spanish, i talked to her. she was so distraught.

she had been harmed. they told me she had been raped. i had to go to the border patrol agent and say please separate her from the men and take her to a doctor right away, i think she's been violated, i think she's been raped. she doesn't want to talk to anyone. she was shaking. i can't even imagine that anybody would joke about this. that for the first time we're willing to do something about this and nobody out there is defending the people without a voice, the victims of this. those are the children, and the children that you've rescued that have nobody else for them, unless we speak up for them. >> laura: and they call trump anti woman, isn't that great? everything they say, they are. if you're -- if you think this is all made up. and i know some of these guys that are saying this i've spent ten years of my life as an undercover operator on this border fighting sex trafficking. this is real. this is happening. >> laura: the cartels are getting rich off of it $150 billion industry.

slavery today in the modern age. we should be doing something about this. we can do something about this. and the democrats have to stop lying about it. >> laura: alright guys thank you so much. if the left is so confident she can win, beat trump in 2020 why are they freaking out over former starbucks ceo schultz? hold the latte, hillary clinton is trying to sink schultz, next. my experience with usaa has been excellent. they really appreciate the military family and it really shows. with all that usaa offers why go with anybody else? we know their rates are good, we know that they're always going to take care of us. it was an instant savings and i should have changed a long time ago. it was funny because when we would call another insurance company, hey would say "oh we can't beat usaa" we're the webber family. we're the tenney's we're the hayles, and we're usaa members for life. ♪ get your usaa auto insurance quote today.

afraid of? i think they're afraid of a threepeat with a potential candidate who has an absolute no chance of winning >> laura: that's what they said about trump, no chance of winning there is absolutely zero chance an independent is going to win in 2020. a republican or democrat would win. we've had two elections that have come down to a handful of votes. howard schultz knows he has zero chance of being the democrat nominee. he's done a poll and had a bunch of individuals that are very greedy and interested in money. >> laura: that never happens. don't tell people. come on boss, you can win. just put another million in my bank account and i'll do another poll. this is politics, man we have a billionaire here trying to buy himself an election. >> laura: you guys seem to have a problem with billion areas, you don't think people should make money. why? >> laura: fox doesn't have a

problem with billion areas. >> laura: they employ a lot of people. do you think starbucks is something we should protest against itself i'm not advocating for a protest against any business. howard has said he wants to hear from the american people. i think that's a great idea >> laura: who is paying you? no one is paying for this. it's a website. >> laura: you're just doing it yeah i'm doing it. i heard him out there. he said he wants to hear from folks. i saw him at the barnes & noble on t.v. in new york. and i thought he looked stunned when someone stood up and rejected what he was doing at his book tour. >> laura: that guy was definitely paid who made that comment, i would imagine. i'm just trying to put the shoe on the other foot. if conservatives were trying to stop a candidacy in 2020, a challenge to trump, jeff flake or john kasich, you know the media, and democrats would be saying, oh they really are scared, the opposition, why are they so scared of these opponents challenging trump,

even there his own party. so the same question is begged here, if he's so out of touch, why worry about him. if he has no choice why are you freaking out? 5% would vote for him. white isn't the better tact to try to get those 5% you just asked a great question, if someone like jeff flake would run, that's exactly what the rnc is doing, stacking its rules. >> laura: like they did against bernie, shut him out in 2016? . he won the debate the rnc is stacking it from donald trump trying to make sure he doesn't have anyone running against him. i think it's interesting the support is coming from the republican party. >> laura: i'm not supporting him. he's a liberal i actually thought maybe you would. >> laura: he's a liberal. a liberal businessman. and michael bloomberg is concerned about the direction of the democrat the party as well.

he's concerned it's gone so far left, it's left america. that you've gone way over to partial birth abortion. you're embracing medicare for all, which would bankrupt medicare, $32 trillion and it goes on and on and on p i think what schultz is saying is that's not the democrat party. that's a fringe movement that has the emotion now of a lot of people. but those policies don't work. my question is why not debate the policies and not demon eyes the guy? i think it's fascinating you're talking about michael bloomberg. >> laura: he's exposing you guys, is he not both bloomberg and schultz have done the same poll with the same results? so what? it's america. you could be 36% in six months not as an independent >> laura: he hasn't for sure said he would run as an i could. likely, not likely the difference is michael bloomberg wants to be president. he's putting together a team.

>> laura: you guys feel like you have the wind at your back now, that trump is definitely going to lose. i think you're getting out over your skis. i can be confident and say our ideas are the best. we're going to raise gdp higher the than 3.8%, create more than 480,000 in two years, but you're not doing that. the litany offisms doesn't create a single job yeah, you know, given the economy, you talk about the economy a lot. i think that donald trump should really think hard about the next 15 days. because he's gonna have serious problems on his hands if he shuts down the government again. >> laura: well that argument will not win in 2020 but we're glad you came on. thank you for joining us. sorry i botched your name, it was a tough one. these models helped promote a mus music that case and more when judge laura hits the bench. the arbiter is next. meeting to.
