7:00 pm
jobs and opportunities in goods and services to make us better as a country. if you just look at history, you know, we are always reminded we are but one generation away from extinction. ronald reagan said that. if we don't learn the lessons of history, we are doomed to repeat it. this will be an unmitigated economic disaster. let not your heart be troubled. now because here is laura ingraham standing by in our nation's capital, the swamp. >> laura: hannity, great show, great expose on socialism. >> sean: they want us all fired. >> laura: i'm so scared. i'm so scared. guess what. bring it. >> sean: you know it's amazing, they wanted to go after and fire joy reid. i said don't fire joy reid. give her another shot. >> laura: i said they shouldn't even drive al franken out. how about that? is one of the rudest people out there. rude to me. why are you driving him out? it's all too much. >> sean: that picture was really creepy. >> laura: okay, there's a lot . just trying to compete in the
7:01 pm
realm of ideas. stealing my thunder. i've got to go. >> sean: how about american people decide? have a great show. >> laura: great idea. hannity, thanks much. we'll see you tomorrow night. i'm laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle" from washington. aoc versus president reagan. the biographer of the 40th president is here to take ocasio-cortez to school after her claims that reagan was a racist. more on that plus one we told you that last fall's caravan might include folks with unknown diseases, we, meaning i, was attacked for fearmongering. well, well, well, tonight we will show you how in the report demonstrates "the ingraham angle" was ahead of the curve and you'll want to stick around for this. professor alan dershowitz and a muslim academic discuss why americans increasingly view the democratic party as anti-semiti anti-semitic. but first, demonizing yesterday, vilifying today. that's the focus of tonight's angle. what a predictable turn from
7:02 pm
nancy pelosi today. well, she and her caucus of course have spent the better part of two years claiming that donald trump and putin are basically spooning together. >> president trump obviously seemed frightened in the presence of putin. what was he afraid of? what is putin blackmailing president trump with? >> the only leader he is totally true to is putin. >> i've seen plenty of evidence of collusion. you don't need to be a lawyer and you don't need to have access to classified information. >> from an intelligence perspective, we need to make sure that the president of the united states is putting america first, not russia. >> laura: well, glenn greenwald. if trump is literally controlled by putin, to the point where trump is forced to act in the best interest of russia at the extent of the u.s. which has been the prevailing claim, not of democratic french is but it's mainstream, how can it be morally justified not to impeach him?
7:03 pm
well, nancy. today pelosi said in a new interview know to impeachment, adding "he's not worth it." wait a second. is nancy talking about trump or mueller? because now it looks like the special counsel may come up empty on this collusion deal. so nancy just wants to move on from that to just plain old regular demonizing trump 24/7. of course pelosi and company will get plenty of help from their state run media outlets all the way through election 2020. >> he has more than 10,000 lives racked up already. >> don't forget he said it into days. >> lies, obstruction of justice. >> racism, white nationalism. >> laura: szabo linsky would be very proud, kids. the ruthless demonization doesn't stop with our current political leadership because what the left wants is a total transformation of our country. the remaking of our history.
7:04 pm
enter stage left. their new socialist poster child is not only claiming that fdr's new deal was racist but that ronald reagan was racist too. >> i think a perfect example of how special interests and the powerful have pitted white working-class americans against brown and black working-class americans is reaganism in the '80s when he started talking about welfare. painting this resentful vision of essentially black women who were doing nothing, they were socks on our country. >> laura: to think i didn't know that the word socks could be used as a noun. learn something new every day. to think that they actually lined up around the block to hear that searing intellect. well, with such gratuitous
7:05 pm
meanness about one of the most beloved presidents of the past 50 years, the sxsw festival should be renamed, i don't know, the mouth and mouth worse festival. as we documented here on the angle week after week month after month, there's a concerted across-the-board effort in the democratic party to demonize the entire american experience and the american tradition by degrading anyone and anything that doesn't pass their own radical monster. remember, the kids of the moment, they can be the leaders of tomorrow, god help us. so it's important that we not merely dismissed these episodes. in fact anyone interested in preserving our freedom and our free market, not to mention the historical record, must use these moments to teach a new generation the truth about the country we love. our triumphs and the tragedies that we should learn from. but in the vision vicious landscape of the social media w,
7:06 pm
untruths become truths if they go uncorrected. i have a question. do even really have free speech in america today? if millions of you feel afraid to speak your mind for fear of being demonized at work. at school, at your universities, even in the military. on the left, the impulse today is to control speech, not encourage more of it. cnn president jeff zucker was also at that sxsw festival justifying the dnc's decision to deny fox a chance to host a democrat debate. he basically said no one has the right to get a debate and then he went on to say well, let's keep scrolling. they said look, fox's basically basically state run tv. so they don't have an obligation to give wanda fox. i think the question should be, is fox state run tv or blah
7:07 pm
blah. rejoinder question. has cnn become resistant tv? where the president and by association a huge swath of americans who voted for him are treated like evil neanderthals. >> the president is proposing something that doesn't sound like it's in keeping with american tradition when it comes to immigration. the statue of liberty says give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. >> president trump is poisoning the american people. it's getting worse every day. >> the president of the united states is racist. we already knew that. >> this make america great hat is just as maddening and frustrating and triggering for me to look at as a kkk hood. >> laura: this is cnn. word is james earl jones go to get his voice-over back after that thing? is it any wonder cnn is facing a $250 million lawsuit for defaming the reputation of of e covington catholic students? the network routinely allows its
7:08 pm
ideology to eclipse facts and then the demonization game soon begins. a few weeks ago, cnn actually hired sarah is good for us, harvard law grad and former jefe of justice. she was hired, surprising to me, as a cnn political editor. what was cnn thinking hiring a conservative? the announcement sent shock waves. liberal gerbil journals my bananas, starting writing pieces maligning her. my question is did she lock more journalistic experience than these people? you can see them on the screen. they were granted network purchase after their political stance. no. get the dnc was quick to register its displeasure with her in that role of political editor at that network. democrat campaign committee aide told "the daily beast" chairman tom perez in the dnc expressed a cnn that they have serious concerns with a higher. they continue to talk to the network about how this impacts
7:09 pm
2020. as of wednesday, they got assurances that she would not be involved in debates. not only that. jeff zucker demoted his girder to a mere political contributor. she will have zero role in shaping the coverage of the democrats or their debates. the good news is north watching cnn so doesn't really matter. so i've got a question. will some crack liberal journalist write a long tedious magazine piece about how cnn is the mouthpiece with a direct line into the dnc and vice versa? no, don't hold your breath. but it's important to note the tactic. the left is committed to distorting history and distorting the past while demonizing anyone and everyone stands up for american values and traditions. what started as the removal of historical monuments has now become a full on assault on presidential legacies and the movements, namely the
7:10 pm
conservative movement, that was created. and by the way, if a conservative does manage to secure a post inside one of these old dinosaur bastions, he or she will be vilified, condemned without cause, and driven out. because the fanatical left, well, it's no longer about winning in the arena of ideas for them. it's no longer a debate, and may the best person when. no, no, no. instead, they work to take players off the field with blindside hits. >> hey, buddy. >> laura: but just not that funny. if democrats want to make a difference, i have a suggestion. why not starting engaging incident demonizing. you're welcome on the show anytime. how's that for openness? meanwhile democrats orally have any defense, do they come up for what's, let's anna boerner. nor are they going to try to
7:11 pm
convince voters that they'll do a better job at leveling the playing field with china and forcing fairness in trade. or maybe how they would raise your standard of living or have a stronger economy than trump. you know either point to not make that argument? because they can't. all they really have left is some iteration of "you are a racist if you don't agree with us." that's not woke. that's just a sad joke. and that's the angle. try to me with reaction, conservative author, filmmaker dinesh d'souza and david burstein, ceo and founder of a run for america. dinesh, as we discussed last week, you expect this on a college campus but for the head of cnn to be pushing for more restrictions on speech, not fewer, reveals kind of the game here, doesn't it? >> it's hard for me to see whether there is just a complete
7:12 pm
lack of self-consciousness here, that cnn has no comprehension of the fact that they are dug in on one side of the political debate. that makes it impossible for them to be a form of debate. they are ultimately like a battering ram against trump. if they have a panel, every panelist is echoing the same side. if they ever have a conservative on, once in a while it's going to be a never trump conservativ. this is not really what i network is about. a network is about having arguments, discussions, forums so that we can consider the large issues of our day. we really haven't had a serious clinical debate on any subject, not emigration, not taxes, not the court, since trump's election and cnn is largely responsible for that. >> laura: david, i want to go to you because i know you support alexandria ocasio-cortez, correct? >> i support her as a leader in the party. i don't that she's got all the right ideas. >> laura: that's fine.
7:13 pm
that's fine. i want to play. a sound bite of something else she said at sxsw that relates directly to this idea of more, not last speech. let's watch. >> the way i have conversations with people of opposing beliefs is i don't try to convince them of anything. so i think we've kind of lost the art of conversation. >> laura: so what about that, david? we're not even engaging with like half the country? how was that smart? that is like mitt romney saying this big huge swath of the country, i'm not going to bother with him and he got killed for that. >> i think it is a mistake and right now what's happening inside the democratic party is that there are multiple different caps. to be fair, you represented in the piece you just ran a certain viewpoint which is represented by people like alexandria ocasio-cortez. it's at the moment the loudest viewpoint and the democratic
7:14 pm
party. but it's not the biggest. there are far more institutional senators down the totem pole, people like mark warner, chris coons, working on a bipartisan basis every day who are institutionalists that have been there for a long time. they are older and they have more state approach. i think frankly it's harder for a lot of those democrats to actually get their voice heard because saying let's talk, let's be calm doesn't get the headlines as people like alexandra o'casey of cortez. >> laura: you are right. dinesh, there's something else going on here. it's not just -- there will be someone else who comes along and replaces her. right now she's the girl of the moment. i mean it girl and the best ways. ryan stetler at cnn again kind of revealed unwittingly was really going on. let's watch. >> they have a news division. it's relatively small compared to the huge opinion division
7:15 pm
which has the highest rated shows. both exist but it's getting uncomfortable for both to exist in that same body. why would democrats even consider going on fox in the first place? >> laura: the dnc is actually indirect communication speaking staffers at cnn, vetoing staffers. and fox is the problem, dinesh? >> i mean, obviously the point here is that the fox opinion hosts where the opinion badge very clearly on their sleeve. as a result, people can say i agree or disagree. the problem with cnn is the guys like stetler and jim acosta pose as reporters. they pretend like they are after the truth whereas in fact they are propagandists. the problem is here with the truth in advertising. turning to acadia cortez for second if i may, there was a grain of truth, a lot of truth about what she said about the racism of fdr. it's instructive to compare fdr with reagan. reagan didn't have a racist bone
7:16 pm
in his body. reagan was all about patriotism and anti-comment is him and free markets in pro-life privatization whereas fdr said publicly i have no problems with the ku klux klan. fdr was cutting deals with the racist and the democratic party. ocasio-cortez was onto something. she just didn't carry it throug through. she was trying to demonize reagan where she was right about her own party. >> laura: david, do you agree that the new deal, setting aside the personal views of democrats and dinesh's right, at the time, i mean, the kkk was dominated by democrats, as dinesh exposed in his film. but what about that idea of the new deal itself being racist? i got to tell you i haven't heard that one before. >> i think we have to be very careful about going back in history and redoing things based on what things were going on at the time. this country has racism
7:17 pm
ingrained in its bones. the original sin of this country is slavery and that started from the beginning of our dna. one could say that many things in this country have been racist, but i think that dismisses the important impact of the new deal which gave us a lot of the foundation of what we have here today. to simply write off the most important piece of progressive legislation by saying that it's racist, i think it's symptomatic of that element of the party which i do not think if it becomes the dominant one would be positive for the democratic party. >> laura: maybe not quite yet. panel, thank you. aoc's comments on reagan that we played intimates angle caught the attention of our next guest who ended up getting in a twitter war of words with aoc. joining me now is esteemed reagan biographer craig shirley. crag, what upset you most about aoc's reagan claims? >> i don't know where to start,
7:18 pm
laura. it would be that her comment that reagan somehow invented the welfare queen issue then use that as a smear against african-american women in this country, which was just a complete lie. truth be told, both "the washington post" and "the new york times" did extensive stories on the welfare queen of chicago. they did that story in 1979, long before reagan raised it. it was a panoply of so many wrongheaded things that she said about reagan, pitting white working-class people against blacks and hispanics. so many other issues. reagan, going back to his childhood. his father would let them see "birth of a nation" because of the racist comment even though woodrow wilson was his favorite -- >> laura: i want to read the tweet she responded to you with. if you follow craig, you can see is fact-checking on aoc. she tweeted "okay, great, now
7:19 pm
talk about reagan, iran contra, the gutting of the mental health system, the explosion of homelessness under his watch, the crack epidemic. maybe insinuating that i've never read a book, be open to the idea that we've read different ones." that's kind of the point. she maybe wasn't -- people's history? what is she reading? >> iran contra was a problem and got to the point of the commission to root out the problem. ronald reagan went before the american people and he took responsibility for it. as far as the homelessness, that was caused by the aclu going to the supreme court and charging for thousands of people held in mental institutions were being held against their will. the court agreed. the mental institutions were opened up. because of the liberal american conservative union, thousands of people were let go on the streets. >> laura: civil liberties union. >> the aclu. it created the problem we have today. >> laura: craig, the point i
7:20 pm
made in the angle, point by point refuting her, that's kind of easy to do but what the real point is is to knock off conservative heroes, right? you've got the john wayne deal couple weeks ago. it's part of the tradition, the dna of conservatism, correct? when you want to remake the country, remake of history, ripped down statues, look at everything in today's context. >> rewrite history. >> laura: what statue is going to survive? >> none of them. if the left has its way. the left understands that for them to win, they need to destroy american conservatism. that means destroying ronald reagan's legacy. she knows what she's doing. this has happened before. other democrats have said, written awful things. >> laura: in the '80's when you and i were working for reagan. i mean, this is the same stuff that led to his winning. i think we have a graphic of
7:21 pm
1984, you know landslide victor. that this is what their attacks on him look like. >> combining the two elections in 1980 and '84, won 1,019 electoral votes to carter and mondale. in many places in the country, he got -- 25% if not 35% of the democratic vote. if that's not unifying, i don't know what is. >> laura: when you look at that map, that was before simpson was only, that was was a different world. you cannot deny it was a historic landslide. we've got to go. got to go. yeah, we've got to go. i'm sorry, craig. will check back with you. thank you so much for coming on her back in october, yours truly was attacked for pointing out that some members of caravans and our borders might have unknown diseases because we don't know how they are screened
7:22 pm
and so forth. why those critics are eating crow tonight. next. stay there. being a usaa member, because of my service in the military, you pass that on to my kids. something that makes me happy. being able to pass down usaa to my girls means a lot to both of us. he's passing part of his heritage of being in the military. we're the edsons. my name is roger zapata. we're the tinch family, and we are usaa members for life. to begin your legacy, get an insurance quote today. come hok., babe. nasty nightime heartburn? try alka-seltzer pm gummies. the only fast, powerful heartburn relief, plus melatonin so you can fall asleep quickly. oh, what a relief it is!

7:25 pm

[ ding ] show me my wifi password. hey now! [ ding ] you can even troubleshoot, learn new voice commands and much more. clean my daughter's room. [ ding ] oh, it won't do that. welp, someone should. just say "teach me more" into your voice remote and see how you can have an even better x1 experience. simple. easy. awesome. >> laura: apathetic congress is expected to reject the president's emergency declaration of the border this thursday, a stunning and reckless move considering the
7:26 pm
news coming from the border. the u.s. government projects that nearly 180,000 more migrants traveling as families are expected to cross the border by name. yes, that figure is correct. officials told fox news that they think the total numbers for this fiscal year could exceed the combined numbers for the last three years. no crisis. no emergency, right? here now on whether tromso emerged the declaration passes constitutional muster is drawn you, former deputy ag under president george w. bush and someone on the front lines of this fight, sheriff markland from arizona. john, as a constitutional manner, i've got might you chewed off from people on capitol hill, what do you say to those senate republicans. here are their names. marco rubio, thom tillis, lisa murkowski, susan collins,
7:27 pm
rand paul. thank you very much. and lamar alexander. mike lee is apparently someone to watch. that's disturbing. what about that? what you say that? >> laura, i think what they want is a different kind of law to apply to president trump then has been applied to all previous presidents. because what they are doing is trying to claim that a statute, not constitutional power. president trump is exercising a power under a statute to declare an emergency and then to transfer money from military construction projects to the wall. congress give that power to the president and congress can always take it back. but what congress really shouldn't be doing is second-guessing a presidents incision that the national emergencies there the first place. just the facts you provided, laura. we are going to see a tripling of border crossings and border arrests in just one year. i think that's a sign that the president has access to
7:28 pm
information and intelligence that maybe we didn't know about and that justify aided oration of a national emergency. >> laura: look at the video. is that from november? i can't quite see. it's from november. that's november video. the caravan. the numbers are much worse. large groups of 100 more are becoming more and more prevalent. we brought all this to you last week. we don't have to recreate the wheel. sheriff, you are not far from the border where you are but you are feeling the effects of this border crisis. i'm telling you, this is disgraceful what happening about 500 yards from where i'm sitting right now. it's absolutely disgraceful. >> is disgraceful for us too. we are sitting here fighting the fight on the front lines and listening to these politicians attack our president. whether you agree with him or don't, at least we are president who is supporting law enforcement, who was fighting for border security. something that we've been clamoring for for a while.
7:29 pm
i know my border sheriffs, i'm 70 miles off the border but i can go out in the desert every night and i can wrangle up probably five to ten bodies in three to 500 pounds of marijuana. so it's an issue we are dealing with. the cartel, they don't have rules they are playing by. the other day we had a traffic stop and there was a leading the front seat dressed as a nun with the bible on her lap. we ended up finding 8 pounds of fentanyl in her undergarments. so when you say there's not a problem, there is a problem. the cartel has no problem crossing any of those lines. >> laura: she was dressed as a nun? that's a new one. >> yeah. >> laura: how many people could that kill? >> 8 pounds of fentanyl would kill a lot. a tiny grain like a grain of sugar would kill a person. this would kill a lot of people. it's killing our youth every day. >> laura: i have to get back to john here because john, again, the conservatives that say you're not a conservative laura, you don't believe in
7:30 pm
article one power, you're all for primary executive for the executive. it was back in the '70s they granted the president this right, correct? >> yeah. look, i can't believe these republican senators are trying to deal with with what liberals do. they want courts to step in and substitute their judgment about what's an emergency or was necessary to protect the border for the president. under the constitution, under these laws, that's the president's job. that's why the constitution creates a presidents smo can backup the sheriffs of our country, people on the border. someone can act quickly and swiftly to protect our country from unforeseen events like a tripling in border crossings. >> laura: by the way, one judge, remember, halted the presidents desired policy of only allowing asylum-seekers to come through ports of entry. that happened a couple months ago. that one federal district court
7:31 pm
judge changed immigration. we are seeing this immigration, they would all be able to be sent back. they wouldn't be able to claim asylum but because of that one judge, that's the situation we're in right now. that's why people are crossing and nonports of entry. gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us tonight. last october, by the way, those caravans were approaching the u.s. border. on this show, i warned of something that was being lost in the greater debate. watch. this is a national security issue, an economic issue, costs taxpayers billions billions ofo take all his people entered public schools, health care, how we know. it's a health issue too because we don't know what people have coming in here. we have disease in this country we haven't had for decades. the backlash i received was swift. i was immediately vilified for saying such a thing. how dare i. this is insider called it a conspiracy theory in "the washington post" said it was dehumanizing.
7:32 pm
well, wouldn't you know it. today reuters reported, or yesterday, excuse me, that outbreaks of infectious diseases among migrants including cases of the mumps, measles, et cetera, have forced over 2,000 of them into quarantine and various detention centers across the country. so my question, will those critics now go after reuters? joining me now to discuss it, it's way beyond mumps. marc siegel. dr. >> , i was slated for warning about this. this is a real health risk to american citizens, especially american schoolchildren, is it not? >> absolutely right. the immigration and customs enforcement has her hands full. 50,000 in detention centers, and as you just pointed out, over 2,000 known quarantine. mumps travels through the air. mumps, you may not have symptoms and you are spreading it. measles as well. also chicken pox. also cases of tuberculosis being
7:33 pm
found. you know the biggest issue is that the centers for disease control will screen legal immigrants. you're not allowed into this country illegally unless they check your measles mumps rubella tighter, chicken pox, you have to prove you have received the vaccine and that it's working. cdc told me tonight that they are playing catch up now. ice is going to have to call the people and revaccinated them to check to see if their immune status is there. you're absolutely right, calling this a public health emergency. that's part of the problem. a big part of the problem, and it ties in with national security. multiple diseases are coming in with the migrants. speak to dr. siegel, when someone comes in and you say have you been vaccinated? how are are you way to check that? you can't really -- there is no legitimate way to check. has x, y, and z gotten the various techno shock? you can't really check that, right? we have enough problems with
7:34 pm
people in the country not being vaccinated, that big controversy. but now we are overwhelmed and they are going to vilified alex azar at hhs and secretary of hhs? what is he supposed to do? the democrats don't want to deal with it. he's left to pick up the pieces. >> you not only can't check it. you can take some is word for it because of course they're going to say yes, ma'am, he asked her. but also it wears off. this vaccine wears off, especially with mumps and mumps can cause infertility, brain swelling. these are not just minor childhood diseases we are talking about. we have seen measles resurgence mainly across the border and then people that don't get vaccinated, like you said, people who refuse to get vaccinated, it spreads like wildfire to the unvaccinated population. this is threat of public health. also mosquito borne diseases, 400,000 cases of malaria coming in. tuberculosis. i don't know why the left doesn't want to talk about it. it's an actual issue. >> laura: again, back to the point i made and the angle.
7:35 pm
they do not want to have a debate on these issues because they can't debate it. all they can say is you are racist. you are xenophobic. you are dehumanizing. you're cruel. you're mean. that's all they have. because you get down to the facts, they are putting americans at risk and trump and his policies are actually geared, dr. siegel, toward keeping our people safe. that's his first and most solemn obligation, to keep the american people safe and he's trying to do that. he's not perfect. none of us are. but he's trying to do that. >> laura, the cdc was really nonpartisan, calls us playing catch up. they are in the country and then we've got to figure out what diseases they may carry. that says it all. that says at all. >> laura: dr. siegel, thank you so much. by the way, i'm not going to hold my breath for an apology from "the washington post." up next, new poll revealing that voters think democrats have a growing anti-semitism problem.

>> laura: the democrats have a growing problem with anti-semitism and the voters can tell. a new rasmussen poll found 42% of likely voters think anti-semitism is a growing problem in the democratic party. 35% disagree. after the democratic caucus water down there anti-semitism declaration last week to protect congresswoman ilhan omar, it's no wonder americans believe the parties having a major blind spot on this issue. joining me now, harvard law professor emeritus alan dershowitz and a muslim professor and reformist. professor, the media seem to care more about the president's claim that the democrats are anti-jewish rather than the

glaring evidence that they might be so. are you worried about the direction of your party, professor dershowitz? >> i'm very worried. i don't think the democratic party is anti-semitic but i'm afraid that the core elements that turn the labour party in britain into a party tt tolerates anti-semitism could he united states. the party is not anti-semitic but they refuse to confront the anti-semitism of a few extremists on the left. for example, one black lives matter started, some people said why black lives matter. all lives matter. people were accused of racism for saying that. if it's about black lives because blacks are being discriminated against, we have to say only black lives matter. we can't say all lives matter but when it comes to jews and the anti-semitism, you can't say anti-semitism is bad. you have to say all isms are bad. >> laura: this is also a congresswoman, sitting congresswoman. it wasn't just some groups are more protesting.
7:42 pm
i want to get you because as a reformer, a muslim reformer, you take issue with this direction of a lot of these newbie congresswomen and their cohort. i want to play something from another prominent newcomer which is rashida tlaib and what she said about joe growing islamaphobia. let's watch. >> why do you think your own party reacted so strongly against what he said. speak i'm trying to figure it out. this past week, i feel and i know this would be somewhat shocking for some, but i think islamaphobia is very much among the democratic party as well as the republican party. >> so you think democrats have some islamaphobia? >> i think our country is struggling with it. >> laura: your thoughts. >> with the country is struggling with is a person like ilhan omar who was proven herself to be blatantly
7:43 pm
anti-semitic. she is a disgrace to the united states. she is a liability for the democrats and she's an embarrassment for muslims. and then when she is caught out time and again making horrific anti-semitic remarks, she falls back on the victim ideology which is the islamaphobia card that has played so well by islamists all over the world. i am surprised that the democrats can't see the through that. the victim card is i'm the one being stigmatized. rather, she has held back no words in her hatred for jews and for israel. this is absolutely appalling. i'm a muslim woman. i want to distance myself from ilhan omar and rashida tlaib, although it would've been so exciting for the first two muslim congresswoman to have been elected but what comes out of their mouths is appalling and vile and full of hate. >> laura: it so interesting. professor dershowitz, i'm so into the muslim reform movement because i think it is so needed
7:44 pm
and it's so refreshing. i had an incredible guest on friday, former "wall street journal" reporter has been focusing on linda sarsour and her radicalization. now we hear from raheel and there's many like them but they don't -- i'm going to give them a platform on the show. i think it's awesome. raheel, i think you're awesome. i'm so glad you came on tonight. honestly. i have hair up on my arms because it's so exciting. >> the best proof that we don't stop suffer from islamaphobia is that we welcome reformist muslims. want to hear from them. what we are opposed to as americans are terrorism in the name of religion no matter who the terrorists are, whether they are christian fundamentalists who want to blow up on abortion clinic or muslim terrorists who want to kill jews. we are supposed to the extremists on the terrace. we are not opposed to islam and the best evidence of that is we will welcome muslim reformers. they are wonderful. they contribute so much in america.
7:45 pm
i was so thrilled when i heard the two muslim women were elected to congress for the first time, and then when they started their hatred, it became very difficult because they will make it harder. >> laura: raheel. people have to understand what's really going on, and you have made a point the part of what they are doing is numbing the public to any differences in muslim ideology and thought. >> this is a ploy of the islamists since a long time, to collate anti-semitism and islamaphobia which are two entirely different things. we know anti-semitism is institutionalized hatred of jews. it's genocidal. and ilhan omar can't say she didn't know. she's not naive. she got elected to congress. she's in a position of power and she has a responsibility to speak out and support the jewish community that is facing such
7:46 pm
appalling pushback all over the world, especially in europe. here i am. we support. the democratic party, i agree, they have their head stuck in the sand. >> laura: we are almost out of time. allen, quickly. what does the democrat party do here. if what raheel is saying is true, they've got a big problem on their hands. >> they do and they have to make sure they don't become the labour party because the labour party is losing good and decent people in england because of corbin. you can't let as tremendous exl the party.
7:47 pm
that's what the democrats have to do. they have to respond in a very vigorous way, zero tolerance for anti-semitism. >> laura: what they are doing now ain't working. allen, raheel, fantastic. great to have you both on. with the aid of liberal groups and judges, he became the first american to legally identify as neither a man or woman but now he says it was all a sham. jamie is here to share why the rush to normalize transgenders him in his view is a dangerous game, next chicken?! chicken.

>> laura: in 2015, he became an outspoken voice for the transgender community. a year later he was praised for being the first american to be legally recognized for what they call nonbinary. jamie shupe was the darling of the lgbtq world. instead of recognizing a desperate cry for help, doctors, judges and activists used him to advance the cause, he says. they took advantage of his vulnerability as an army veteran suffering from ptsd to break barriers. jamie shupe will never be the same. joining me now to tell his story and it's shocking, is jamie shupe himself. jamie, thank you for being here. takes a lot of courage to be here. you say that the transgender community has not only turned their backs on you but are now attacking you? what happened? >> that's correct, laura. the minute you denounce anything transgender is unwise, you're
7:52 pm
automatically an outcast. for example, i support president trump's ban on transgender military service. i do not agree with transitioning children or transgender surgeries. i'm against all of this. >> laura: did you take the hormones and start doing all that? you didn't obviously do surgery i guess but you did start taking estrogen and progesterone, what did you do? >> yes, i took estrogen and progesterone and now have irreversible breast growth. i have a number of health problems. bone density, kidney problems. i one point my mental health was so destabilized that i had to go stays in the psychiatric ward because of it. >> laura: do you think this kind of push is being used broadly, more broadly? i hear from a lot of people, you
7:53 pm
see a lot of examples. heritage foundation did a big panel of feminists who are actually really upset by this because they think people are being kind of pushed into this, you know, this kind of view of life and transgender is him before they really kind of number they are. is that wrong? >> no, that's completely correc correct. my hat is off to the heritage foundation because it's really the only place that people such as myself and these radical feminists are getting a voice. we've been completely silenced by the left. as you said, i was previously a transgender media darling another "new york times" doesn't want to talk about me anymore or evening knowledge that i exist because i know longer support this stuff. the conservatives are to be commended for what they are doing to help us, to help
7:54 pm
children. to be you talked to other people who will began transitioning and maybe even didn't transition? they reached out to you, if they have regrets, do they look to for advice? or just to share a story? >> yes, laura. regret is very common but again the media doesn't want to talk about the surgeries that go wrong and the host of health complications. it's really wrong to even call this transition because gender identity is legal fiction. first they claimed that i was a woman and then they claimed that i was a combination of male and female and everybody went along with this. as i said, it's nothing but legal fiction. >> laura: sergeant, we wish you the best. i know it's incredible -- it sounds incredibly traumatic and difficult, and i hope you'll stay in touch with us and we'll certainly stay in touch with you. thank you so much.
7:55 pm
>> thank you, laura. >> laura: coming up, we have a close out and a twitter smack down but i you'll like. prevagen has been shown in clinical trials to improve short-term memory. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. val, vern... i'm off to college and i'm not gonna be around... i'm worried about my parents' retirement. oh, don't worry. voya helps them to and through retirement... ...dealing with today's expenses... ...like college... ...while helping plan, invest and protect for the future. so they'll be okay... without me? um... and when we knock out this wall imagine the closet space? yes! oh hey, son. yeah, i think they'll be fine. voya. helping you to and through retirement.

>> laura: it's time for tonight's twitter smack down. ♪ my guests earlier tonight craig shirley called out aoc over her swipe at reagan. noting there is no evidence it was he ever picked up a book on president reagan. aoc responded to craig, okay, great, now talk about reagan and iran contra and the gutting of our mental health system, the explosion of homelessness under his watch, the crack epidemic. maybe instead of insinuating that i've never read a book, be open to the idea that we've read different ones." well, here's my advice for aoc. here's my tweet. talk about obama and benghazi, fast and furious, irs scandal,
