tv The Ingraham Angle FOX News May 20, 2019 7:00pm-8:00pm PDT
7:00 pm
>> sean: has been an actor that much time on his hands. all right, pretty angry. this whole time, he will never be part of the destroyed trump media mob ever. we will be fair and balanced and a lot coming soon. laura ingraham let not your heart be troubled, how are you? >> laura: we lost the grumpy cat. the grumpy cat died but now we have a new grumpy cat. robert de niro. i actually met him once and i actually liked him. but it is so sad. i find it just -- >> sean: to go to work. >> laura: he is such a great actor. this act is getting old. great acting. i could watch it all day long periods need to that's not fair. >> laura: well, "hannity," a fantastic show tonight. we will pick up where you left off on thousands of pages of transcript but think is much. i am laura ingraham and this is the "the ingraham angle."
7:01 pm
i say this every night but we do have breaking news from the nation's capital tonight. just in the last few hours, you heard "hannity" hit on this but the top republican on the judiciary committee has released thousands of pages of closed-door interviews with top officials. it's like christmas. we have been coming through them for you, and you will not believe what former loretta lynch said about spying, yes, indeed, here in moments to discuss the latest and also, hansen will tell us how obama intel chief are now turning on each other, like something out of the serengeti, turning on each other, plus details where the real obstruction lies and we sent our cameras to a rally time squares, holing for ilhan omar to route be removed from the foreign committee in one of them men leading that effort will join us
7:02 pm
tonight, but first, rinse and repeat. that is the focus of tonight's angle. now if joe biden continues to dominate these early months of the 2020 presidential race, the other democrat candidates, they are kind of left to pick up whatever table scraps they can get. poor oh beto thinks your hair and white privilege will make him relative again. kamala harris trying to reset, corey rebrand, and kiersten a refrain. and then there is mayor pete who desperately needs a rebooted judge, but of course, he's oblivious about his deficiencies as a candidate because he usually glides through interviews, rarely facing tough questions. now last night he appeared on this network for town hall event in front of a studio audience that included a lot of
7:03 pm
supporters. pushing for tax increases were lobbing cheap shots come he was trying to pass off political pablum and high-minded oratory. >> i believe we are living through one of the transitions between moments in american history as consequential as the one who brought us the new deal where the dawn of the reagan era which is actually a 40 year period that has only come crashing to a halt with hostile takeover the republican party by the president. it does call for that longer view. everybody has different attributes they bring. one of the one i bring is the possibility of that kind of generational shift. >> laura: now, the political equivalent of cotton candy. it taste good at first but then nausea kicks in. i think cecil rhodes is muttering he wants his scholarship back. i think i was ahead of the curve a few months ago when i called help pete buttigieg just a judgmental and sanctimonious and some of the christians whose faith he was questioning.
7:04 pm
last august president trump is basically described game show host in vice president pence, he said this is social extremist the likes of which are contrary and has not known in national politics. wow, so much for conservative family values. beyond his boy scout demeanor and pete buttigieg and other creation of media apparatus desperate to oust trump. and as i'm sure you saw again and again and on the other networks, he showed this unattractive stream last night. it is hard to patronize and condescend your way to win the nomination. you can't do it. you have to treat the people like they deserve to be treated. forget mayor pete, maybe we should call him pope pete. don't you love how pete attends church, we are to treat him like the be-all and end-all moral authority, the herb or of who is
7:05 pm
and who is not operating in good faith. so we find conservative media objectionable, but the third trimester abortion? they are perfectly moral. >> do you believe at any point whether it is six weeks or eight weeks, 24 weeks or whenever that there should be any limit on a woman's right to have an abortion? >> no, i think the dialogue has got so caught up where you draw the line that we have gotten away from the fundamental question of who gets to draw the line. and i trust women to draw the line when it's their life. [applause] >> laura: well met, an example of good faith. is that what you actually call that? good faith towards the unborn child? she probably doesn't feel the good faith. as the father have any rights at all? i think we need a paper proclamation. this eager beaver mayor effect of the art of mild mannered
7:06 pm
extremism. his modulated tone and kind of cool cat exterior are designed to make the extreme seem downright pedestrian. it's all normal as a sunday school lesson or hot apple pie. but don't be fooled, you were too smart for that. here he is showing he's not too far from his buddy al sharpton on a hot button historical issues. >> should jefferson jackson be renamed everywhere because both -- >> i think it is the right thing to do. over time you develop the things you choose to honor and i think we know enough, especially you just look at basically -- jefferson's more problematic and of course a lot to admire and thinkings of philosophy. it is not like we are plotting him out of the history books. but maybe something -- naming something after somebody is an amount of honor.
7:07 pm
>> laura: well, so do statues and monuments. we have a lot of those of thomas jefferson, but he's not for blowing those up. now, look, this is all giving aid and comfort to kind of the modern day tele- band the destroyers of history that people who rather than learning from the shadows of history refr to strike the name and the images of the past from the public square, that way you short-circuit debate altogether. they are not taking them from the history books. just from your site line and everyday life so you don't see it anymore. i would be delighted to have mayor pete buttigieg "the ingraham angle" and i will treat him fairly but i will not leave the generality of complex issues that i've heard him speak about such as china or religious liberties. i would ask him really serious, tough questions. and i would ask him to tell us more about his parents, specifically his father's marxist pedigree.
7:08 pm
tell us the glories of socialism that family members, your dad may be championed as a professor and were you steeped at those in the home? i think the country would like to know. you have plenty of time to cheryl of your truth while on the road. especially given how little time pete buttigieg seems to spend in south bend these days. according to a new report in the south bend tribune, mayor pete buttigieg out of town and the recent month half of the days. and question for his calendar, they asked him to produce his calendar and this is what the south bend tribune said, his administration responded by providing a calendar in which 45 of the 120 days were redacted. other days didn't indicate whether he was in town and some were blank. that is very transparent of th them. if you can't show up for the city you were pledged to serve,
7:09 pm
what confidence can the american people have that you will show up for them? in good faith, that is the angle. angle. all right joining me now to react, dan bongino, author of the upcoming book exonerated, the failed takedown of donald trump by the swamp. crisp on radio talk show host and former aide to chuck schum chuck schumer, buddha pete buttigieg one of many of the 2020 radicals and they are trying to take the moral question for their own. he in particular has been pretty deaf at doing that at i think fairly favorable press. >> but we are talking about a guy who is elected, not willing to put any restrictions whatsoever. >> >> he started a fake fight
7:10 pm
with mike pence. mike pence placed him even though different parties and said when he was the governor >> one of the most disgusting turns around and attacks him, when he is the governor of indiana. he is nothing more than another radical left is trying to pretend to be in my heart -- a moderate and the media is playing along. >> >> laura: last night he was asked about reducing the deficit. his answer might surprise you. let's watch. >> marginal income tax rate on
7:11 pm
those earning the most. a reasonable wealth tax or something like that to make sure that people are giving back when they become enormously wealthy. perhaps a financial tax, tax is the millisecond differences in computer trades that people become enormously wealthy off of. closing the corporate tax loopholes and incentives for off shoring. >> laura: chris, that is for different tax hikes but will that fly in middle america today? speed to 99% of americans would have no effect, no effect on 99% of your viewers and 99% of the people voting. a very small amount of people that would be subject to any of those revenue. >> laura: no trickle down. >> chris: every polite scene from middle american and modern income have said they want to see higher taxes o on the wealty and corporation and on trades. let's see what happens if those are out there. i think they should do it. you call the socialist no matter what and that is a very modest
7:12 pm
proposal. >> laura: four tax hikes? wait a second, we have an economy from a dan that is on fire. we have historically low unemployment, at least 1969. we have an incredible sense of confidence in the future, more people are working. if you want to work today, you will get a job. there is no doubt about it. i can't remember a better time to be in america than right now. >> dan: the economy motoring precisely because thankfully of what chris said. i'm so glad he was not an advisor to donald trump, thank the lord. but chris does not nobody's talking about. i don't know if he's not familiar with marginal taxes work. 20%, 80%, excuse me 20% of top earners pay 80% of the taxes and financial transaction tax. we tanked the stock market. i'm not sure chris is sure about this kind of stuff. but invested deeply by pension funds, union workers and others.
7:13 pm
this idea of the corporate tax range will only affect the business? what do you think customer business customers are? no, no, i'm not done who passed the taxes on to the consumers. chris, pick up an economic textbook once in a while. it is very illuminating. >> chris: i, unlike you have taken economic classes in college. >> dan: actually i have an mb mba. >> chris: i've been watching the show and 99% of americans as the president's trade war with china and the tears he has proposed and his failure to keep open trade going around the world. >> dan: notice -- >> laura: boys. be to all the people you are worried about. >> laura: hey, we can do alone come a long segment sometime on trade, but there ain't no inflan insight and finally we are taking china seriously.
7:14 pm
we didn't under the previous eight years. we didn't under bush but we are finally doing it now. we see the president who sees the world as it is and not as some fantasy we play out at harvard, princeton, the elites going to school and learning the world will love us if we treat them right. we are doing what we need to do now. the economy is absorbing the tariffs that are small percentage of a $20 trillion economy. so don't play this game on the tariffs are doing and the re- -- the economy, that is ridiculous and you know it. >> chris: you are smart enough to know we should not be running up deficits like this president has. >> laura: so you want to tank and you want to turn it over to china. you want to turn this over to china because of the soybean farmers? that is ridiculous. we have to get into kamala harris. she is one of the other candidates who is trying to rebrand and restate things. let's listen to what she said
7:15 pm
with her bold new plan. >> i am going to announce the first-ever national priority on closing that pay gap. [applause] >> and holding corporations accountable for transparency. there will be penalties if they don't. >> laura: dan, look, more people embracing socialism. and i think a lot of young people coming out of colleges and universities today are they probably don't have the economics that they should have if they are either graduating in a major of economics. and they hear this and they say, that sounds fair. what about that? that may sell with young people today. >> dan: it is sad because left-wing media outlets have debunked the pay cap -- the pay gap that she is referring to. the pay gap is due to career choices among men and women. it is currently illegal.
7:16 pm
i'm not sure if kamala harris knows this but i'm sure she does, she's very bright and probably just lying to people but it is currently illegal to pay men and thankfully by the way, men and women differently based exclusively on sex. she wants experts in the boardroom determining what people's salaries are? >> laura: crisco mold on a minute. we didn't play the sound bite where she talks about the actual 80%, $0.80 to the dollar and liberal ending politifact debunked that so she's using wrong numbers. she keeps repeating them over and over again. that is not working for her. i think she is trying to do her little rebrand, but i'm not sure, even with a more socialist leaning young people come i don't think it is working. >> chris: well, what she actually proposed, laura, companies that do business with the united states government have to certify themselves that they are paying men and women equally to do equal jobs.
7:17 pm
what i'm hearing from dan is from its okay for the government to interfere between a woman and her doctorate and the health choices she's making them up but not for them to hold accountable buying goods and services. >> dan: what are you talking about? these are totally different issues. >> chris: do you want small government or big government, dan? >> dan: i want government to defend life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. >> laura: guys, whatever we do, we are out of time but whatever we do in these conversations, we at least have to have a benchmark of foundational truths when it comes to numbers. the numbers that she was sighting, whatever her plan is going to become of the numbers she cited were not accurate. that is a big problem for her. thank you for coming on. former white house counsel dan mccann twos defy a subpoena to testify before the house panel and thousands of incriminating interviews with former obama officials. thousands of pages.
7:18 pm
7:21 pm
7:22 pm
own closed-door meeting over whether to move forward on impeachment are not against trump. let's bring in former deputy assistant @bretbaier and u.s. attorney joad de geneva. i want to begin with don mcgann but before we get to these transcripts he was white house counsel for president trump and the white house today is legging out why the former counsel should defy how subpoena to testify before judiciary committee and began through his lawyer has agreed to skip it. here is what president trump before heading to pennsylvania tonight. >> as i understand it, at the office of the presidency come i think it is a very important precedent. the attorneys are saying they are not doing that for me. they are doing that for the office of the president. so we are talking about the future. if the democrats want a redo and we've had enough and the countries had enough. >> laura: no redos. joe, nadler was on cnn saying
7:23 pm
they are going to hold mcgann and contempt. >> joe: welcome a mcgann was the counsel to the president. he gave 30 hours of testimony to mueller. that was not a waiver of executive privilege because mueller is anti-executive branch and was an employee of the president of the united states. so there is still executive privilege when it comes to testimony from the hill as well as various confidentiality privileges that the president has such as consultation and communication. so they are on very strong legal ground. if the house litigates contempt on mcgann, they will lose. >> laura: john, is it customary for folks out there who aren't well versed and in the legal issues, constitutional issues, executive privilege, is it common for white house counsel to testify on the hill ever? i mean come i just don't recall it. maybe i'm not recalling it, but i don't recall it and past administrations. >> john: know, in fact the
7:24 pm
grants the justice department has set out an opinion why mcgann can't testify. according to the justice department and lower courts that have looked at this, the aides closest to the president like the chief of staff, national security advisor, white house counsel, basically extensions of the president himself. so just like congressman can't drag president trump to testify to court because that would show disrespect to a core branch of government. chief justice john roberts to testify, can't do that either. so also will so you can't drag closest aides to the president in front of congress to force them to answer questions. the justice department makes a good point, which is if congress really wanted to harass the president and prevent him from doing his job and doing business of the country, they can subpoena and keep bringing all of this before it. >> laura: this it so i am there seems to be the goal here. the other breaking news came courtesy of closed-door transcripts that were released by the house judiciary committee
7:25 pm
ranking member doug collins. now, these were interviews that were conducted with a number of obama era folks including retta lynch. here is one interesting exchange. this is nadler's question december of last year. do you believe the fbi or doj you ever investigated trump campaign for political purposes? blanche said i know they did not. nadler says, how would you react if you had received a request of this nature from any residential administration? i would decline it and tell them how inappropriate it was. joe, after what we know what about that? >> joe: that is a sloppy question because he said political purposes. but she would say they were investigating for nonpolitical purposes. in fact, that is the defense now of obama administration, doj, fbi people. when we said there was no spying, we meant there was no politically motivated spying. there was spying but it was because we really believe the
7:26 pm
russians were influencing. look, this is a scandal of immense proportions. the fact that they have to lie about it now after denying it just shows you how bad off they are and how frightened they are a bill barr. >> laura: john, real quick. there is an issue with what james comey claimed little red -- loretta lynch said about the email investigation and a quote from the december 19th interview. she said i was quite surprised james comey characterized in this way. we did have a conversation so i was not surprised he remembered we talked about it but i was quite surprised that this was his characterization of it because that's not how i conveyed it to him and certainly not how it was intended, calling the probe and matter instead of an investigation. john, what do you make of that? >> john: i cannot think of a more punishment than reading through the transcripts. i have been reading through these for the last hour and painful to point the fingers at each other.
7:27 pm
you are exactly right. a lot of pages about is this a matter? who decided to essentially clear hillary clinton in the first press conferences? as you can tell, neither comey or loretta lynch wants to take responsibility for essentially clearing hillary clinton. but one of them dead because they are both in charge, the fbi and justice department and charge and i don't think they should have ever gone public in the first place. they took that moment to step and started this whole chain reaction of events. that led us into this investigation. >> laura: we are just touching come of the surface of this tonight because they are there is so much. calling for the impeachment of president trump, a republican congressman, hates trump but what is going on real quick? >> joe: a libertarian loser. dear friends with mark sanford and is very angry about the way mark sanford was treated. so it is get back time. he's a 4-year-old.
7:28 pm
if he's a great libertarian ways that he concerned about the spying by the obama administration? he is a loser. he doesn't care about the fisa court coming he cares about repeating the president and that is ridiculous. >> laura: thank you so much, hamas, michigan state jim loehr represented and joins me, and in congress for nearly a decade so why do you think that you can defeat him over this one comment? this one comment, this little i word >> jim: there's a lot more than we can talk about the comment but more than a comment. our president to be impeached. he doubled down on it today. he doubled down on the comment saying the mueller report indicated he should be impeached. there is nobody besides bob mueller that would like to come out with that conclusion. even he couldn't come to that conclusion. it is completely ridiculous. at this point, more in common with rashida to lead than the primary voter in the district.
7:29 pm
so we will beat him on this issue but also on the fact that in ten years in congress, he's gotten one bill passed and it was a post office completely ineffective. now, he was asked about all this and let's watch. >> >> laura: very condescending. it's not serious. are you serious tonight mr. loehr question mike >> jim: 100% and come up vote loehr.com launched thousands of dollars in start up point -- pog around the state of michigan and throughout the country so 100% serious campaign and i've won hard in the past and we are going to win this one too. >> laura: and the past and more is written about this today, he's been dogged by his connections with china,
7:30 pm
financial interest in china, chinese companies and i think that is part of it too. the libertarians are fine. if we have to sell americans out to the red chinese for, you know, soybeans or some high-tech equipment, so be it. that is the so-called free market. so i think that will be another thing that we will look into. i think you are serious. we wish you all the best. thanks for being with us tonight. >> jim: if you look he's the only republican in congress to vote against funding for the border wall and very weak on immigration issues. just basic pro-life issues too. >> laura: he's here terrible on most issues. >> jim: the core platform he's weak on and i'm strong on it and that's why i will beat him in the fall. >> laura: thank you very much, sir. president trump wrapped up in the battleground state of pennsylvania. remember that was his waterloo last time? is former white house chief of staff, reince priebus with the path to victory.

>> when you have the best employment numbers in history, when you have the best unemployment numbers and history, when you have the best economy probably that we have ever had, i don't know how the hill do you lose this election, right? [applause] >> laura: well, you can expect to see a lot more moments like that in the coming months because despite recent rumors that he would cut back on the rallies, access reporting that the president will officially launch 2020 campaign next month. there is a gigantic veal field looking to take him down and we will go through some of them and imagine how the candidates would match up against donald trump. he has been a stranger, reince priebus, it seems like yesterday 2016 campaign and i cannot believe we are here already but why is biden handling himself as the consensus candidate? look, he's blowing -- blowing
7:36 pm
the doors off of it and all polls, it doesn't matter. >> reince: look if you look at what the american people think out they are there was only 30% of the american people not even actually think socialism is remotely compatible with our country. you have joe biden who is reluctantly starting to creep to the left. and what you have to do, i think and everybody has to put their mind-set in the midwest. the president won by 36 electoral votes. wisconsin, ten, michigan 16, and pennsylvania 20. that is 46 of the important electoral votes that the president needs. you cannot win wisconsin, michigan and pennsylvania on a $93 trillion green new deal, 600,000 per household, $32 trillion in a health care package. it's not going to work. so the trump campaign, i believe, will jam down their throats of every person that is watching on television these numbers.
7:37 pm
that is why kamala harris, cory booker and all the things you talked about -- >> laura: they are all rebooting, rebranding, resetting, redoing. but they are trying to figure out trump, trump trying to nail them but they can't. they hit him here and he moves here. it is very interesting to see them try to run against an explosive economy. >> reince: it is an explosive economy and trump is an explosive candidate. >> laura: but you will get in your face. this guy will play defense and get in your face so it doesn't work. >> reince: these number 600,000 per household what they were talking about, they have to account for voters in western pennsylvania and central michigan. how will we pay for that? voters that voted for trump alyssa -- reluctantly in 2016, they live what he does but they don't like how he does it but they will be looking, wait a minute come i don't like every thing about trumpet this is crazy stuff. which is why biden is a little bit different than the rest. >> laura: but he came out
7:38 pm
against and wants to repeal the heideman meaning and would fund i believe abortions, right? >> reince: he's creeping along this crazy left position these folks are taking. if the election is just referendum on trump, it gives some of the democrats an opportunity. it's like every president come every candidate, right? but parts about socialism, reparations, green new deal, the electoral college. >> laura: running that i'm a nicer person than donald trump. >> reince: it's not going to work. >> laura: if people take money out of your pocketbook, they are coming for your money. they are the ones that want to make decisions for you. for me, bernie sanders i have to play this video. he's a different tactic. he's going after trump in a different way on the working class base. let's watch. >> what i believe is the way that you beat trump is bring more people into the political process. so you would expand the base
7:39 pm
talking to working people and young people. we expose trump for the fraud that he has when he said that he campaigned on being a friend of working people. >> reince: well, we have an economy right now that has a number in the threes for unemployment. we have a number in the threes for wage growth. we have a number in the threes on gdp. this is in a roaring -- a roaring economy and the economy alone the president gets an a+. >> laura: they are never making an argument we raise the gdp by 5% more. they are not arguing they are better than trump in running an economy. they never argued that. >> reince: the question would be are you better off today than you were when he came into office? in 2016? and people can say economically they are. >> laura: walker laos, wisconsin is he in danger of losing wisconsin? >> reince: for a republican to win wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania in a given
7:40 pm
presidential election will be tough. it will be a fight. this will not be easy. it doesn't matter. this is going to be a fight. the democrats are energized, the republicans energized and the biggest political battle in modern history. >> laura: would you be out there which might be to shirk my leopard. i can't stop. that's why i'm back on your show. >> laura: all right, mueller report is over. >> reince: mueller report is over. >> laura: your agents field in requests, the mueller report, my goodness, no problems. thank you for being here come back soon. james comey turning on each other? the dirty dossier, plus reveals for us the real obstruction
7:44 pm
>> you look at what we just went through with this phony deal, this phony witch hunt that we all went through together is a disgrace. now, they are all blaming each other, you see? they are all turning on each other. isn't that pretty to watch. it's his fault, no, it's his fault. no, we caught them. there was spying, there was spying on our campaign. >> laura: president trump talking about free former intel leaders, clapper, brennan, call me accusing each other if using anti-trump dossier as the basis for the russian investigation. so which, of course, now debunked. here now victor davis hanson sr.
7:45 pm
fellow hoover institution, victor, what do you make of highly entertaining and revealing circular firing squad? >> it is you would think it would come from the other side, the holy grail and collusion so why wouldn't papadopoulos repay paul manafort or michael flynn -- flynn. no one said he colluded, not me but on the other side of him with the site of the noble servant supposed to save us from donald trump suddenly james comey is saying, wow brennan put this unverified dossier and then no, comey says, you know what the dossier was not that important for the fisa worn in -- court. and then comey said mccabe leaked to the press and mccabe said no, comey is. but laura, why a different mentality? i did it and i'm proud because i saved us from trump. suddenly it is a bad thing to
7:46 pm
mention the dossier or put in the presidential briefing. same thing with emails, laura. all these privacies and we have no evidence they deleted from the email. why was she deleting things with the government? >> laura: victor, i was just saying we are debating with that the president obstructed justice with all of the verbiage and mueller report, but we actually have people deleting records in anticipation of an investigation or during an ongoing investigation, depending on the time frame. that is kind of prima fascia evidence of obstructive behavior with intent to destroy documents. but you had that during the hillary email investigation and the left just yawns about that. >> victor: why would a member of mueller steam wipe clean peter strzok cell phone or the same thing with lisa page after
7:47 pm
spending $34 million on an investigation? why would you say, we need to save money and get all peter strzok's data off of his phone to give it to another employee. it makes no sense. >> laura: i want to read -- >> victor: the information they wanted to come out to show how bad trump was. >> laura: oh, because of the relationship of lisa page's personal, oh, please. this is comey on steele dossier credibility back in 2018 in an interview with stephanopoulos. it said something that was consistent with what we believe. it was coming from a credible source, someone with a track record. someone who is credible and respected member of allied intelligence service during his career. wow, it is interesting to go back and see that and read that now given what we know he said in december, meaning comey. how we note that steel himself discredited by speaking to the press, victor. >> victor: the thing about james coming, he has never one time cited one piece of evidence
7:48 pm
that he said he verified were willing to verify now. there is no russian consulate in miami. michael collins wife is ukrainian, not russian. his father-in-law is not a big developer in moscow. all these things false but comey said it was true but all he has to do is produce one piece of evidence that shows anything that made up that dossier is true and he won't do it. it's getting kind of pathetic now. he's a tragic figure because you know what is ahead for him and it will not be pretty. >> laura: victor, thank you so much. hundreds to get radical congress elon omar up at the powerful committee on the hill. we talked to the rally organizers next. and gliding and steaming and... eating dip. memorial day is coming. so book a place to stay and be a booker at booking.com.
7:52 pm
7:53 pm
