satellite goes down. that's it for us tonight, we will be back tomorrow night and every night, the show that is the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness, and groupthink regardless of the continent we are broadcasting from. we will be back. >> sean: welcome to "hannity," we begin with a fox news alert, one person is emerging as the clear winner from this week's democratic debates, that would be president trump. the radical radical socialist on stage it did not deliver, no one was impressed with anyone. the president called the debate "boring," bill maher tweeted "not a promising start." even the congresswoman, the real leader of the house of representatives, alexandria ocasio-cortez and chiming in, comparing it to a high school classroom filled with kids who didn't do their homework, didn't read the book. in a moment we will break down all the radical positions. you get to hear it yourself, ill-informed platforms, far left fantasies that would never

happen. also, my staff behind my back center owner lawrence jones to the debate in miami to see what democrats think about me. i was just told about this moments ago. i can hardly wait. take a look. >> sean, not a fan. [laughs] >> we are going to play the pulled full package coming up, i'm told it will be quite entertaining, but we turn to one of the biggest losers from last nights debate, that would be a mbc news. they experienced some technical difficulties at the height of the debate, can happen to anybody, take a look. >> i think we had a little microphone issue in the back -- >> control room -- >> we have the audience, all right. is there a role for the federal government to play in order to get these guns off the streets? [laughter] >> what is happening is happening? >> we are hearing our

colleagues' audio. [laughter] >> if the control room could turn off the microphones of the previous moderators. [laughter] >> we have prepared for everything. we did not prepare for this. >> we are going to take a quick break, we are getting this technical situation fixed, we will be right back. >> sean: technical glitches, they do happen. remember, once we had an anchor? it was called going to the bathroom, flushing the toilet. that wasn't released on tape, it happens. the real embarrassment is that nbc allowed the biggest conspiracy theorist in the country to moderate the debate. the so call news network put roswell rachel maddow right there front and center. the single biggest conspiracy theorist in the country. we are going to go over a lot of these conspiracies, just a quick list. she went described herself as a left of mao, she has been

breathlessly reporting an actual hoax and she told her viewers that president trump was a russian op, rex tillerson, russian plan, saying vladimir putin could turn off the power in fargo, north dakota, whenever he wanted. comparing trump's children -- his own, liberal kindness -- two saddam hussein's kids. rampant bias, conspiracy theories, hatred all things donald trump, nbc news allowed her to be the moderator. me, rush, mark live in, how about o'reilly customer of the four of us will do the next debate. but in nbc is not interested in the truth, integrity or actual journalism, nbc news, are you watching? a tv channel that works in unison with everything democratic party, everything socialist, everything to sneer,'s mantle, president trump

every hour of every day. and rachel maddow and her sidekick, they didn't ask tough questions. we never expected that, instead they encouraged the fans on the stage indulge their far left conspiracy. take a look. >> we are here in miami which is already experiencing serious flooding on sunny days as a result of sea level rise. part of miami beach could be underwater in our lifetimes. doesn't your plan save miami? impeachment will not be pursued in the house, it raises the prospect and the mueller report raises the prospect that president trump could be prosecuted for some of those potential crimes and down the. no u.s. president has ever been prosecuted for times after leaving office. do you believe that president trump should or could be the first? >> sean: all right, anyway. one news critic actually called roswell rachel maddow's formants lost for journalism. but we've been telling you sent '07 '08, journalism has been

lost for many years. msnbc, conspiracy tv, no attempt ever revived that. still, last night's debate confirms what we've also been telling you for some time. moderates and the democratic party, they are extinct. they no longer exist. there are no more joe lieberman's, radical socialist have completely and totally taken over, and last night they were just obsessed with vilifying private enterprise. in other words, that which has created the greatest standard of living in the industrialized world, that has advanced the human condition more than any governmental system. capitalism works and we share it with others. take a look. >> who is this economy really working for? it's doing great for thinner and thinner slice at the top. we need to make structural change in our government and our economy and in our country. >> would you support a 70%

individual marginal tax break? yes, no, or pass? >> i would support a tax break and a tax code that is fair for everyone. tax capital at the same rate you tax ordinary income. take that normal tax rate up to 28%. >> we have a real problem with corporate consolidation. you see the evidence and that and how dignity is being stripped from labor. >> 70% tax rate on the wealthy. we are supposed to break up big corporations when they are not serving our democracy! there are plenty millions in this country, it's just in the wrong hands. >> sean: i didn't know who half these people were. they want a top 70% marginal tax rate for individuals, 90% top corporate tax rate. then a wealth tax, then a death tax. wow, who is going to want to build business? i wonder why new york, new jersey, let's say illinois, california are losing populatio population? yeah, because of what they proposed last night. where are we going to go next? there are not enough, by the

way, if you look at it, billionaires and millionaires in the world to pay for this grandiose socialist vision of theirs. let's see, basic income, retirement, early education, child education, universal child care, family leave, guaranteed vacation, free housing, and of course for universal health care, but you can't pick your doctor and save money. that didn't work out. of course, there will be no choices, we all live in one system. the government system. >> who here would abolish their private health insurance in favor of a government run plan? a show of hands to start out with. [applause] >> yes, i am for medicare for all. a lot of politicians say it's just not possible, we just can't do it, have a lot of political reasons for this. what they are really telling you is that they just won't fight for it. >> would you replace private insurance? >> no, i think the choice is fundamental to our ability --

>> private insurance is not working for tens of millions of americans when you talk about the co-pays, deductibles, the premiums, the out-of-pocket expenses, it's not working! how can you defend something that is not working? >> sean: elizabeth warren get elected, her first order of business would be to ban private insurance. that's right, if you're watching at home and you like your insurance and you like your doctor, too bad because if elected, elizabeth warren will be making and allowing the government to make all your health care decisions, and you thought obamacare was bad? how many lost millions lost their doctors? millions lost their plans? everyone paid a tone more despite of the promises. given elizabeth warren's track record of faking her ethnicity i don't think she has the best judgment, but of course the true litmus test in the democratic party, that is the usual abortion and open borders and everything else. in some cases, they have outright infanticide they are endorsing. last night, the party of partial, some cases, yes, during

and even post birth abortion. they showed their true colors. take a look. >> i don't believe only in reproductive freedom, i believe in reproductive justice. [cheers and applause] what that means is that just because a woman, or let's also not forget someone in the transit community, a trans female -- is poor, it doesn't mean they shouldn't have the right to exercise that right to choose. >> senator warren, would you put any limits on abortion? >> i would make certain that every woman has access to the full range of reproductive health care services. we now have in america where most people support roe vs. wade, we need to make that federal law. >> sean: just to keep track if you are at home, to add it all up, democratic radical socialist, they are promising everything for you. through the roof, government health care, and a private

insurance options, no limits on abortion at all regardless of the stage of pregnancy or survivability of the child at that point. extreme positions, not based in reality and in many cases scary, but there is more. one key tenant of the democratic platform, open borders. one candidate vilified republicans to try to deter people from entering the country illegally, and of course, children for making the dangerous trip through the border. it wasn't long obama was echoing the concerns of republicans, sometimes it sounded like trump. take a look. >> are messages absolutely don't send your children unaccompanied on trains or through a bunch of smugglers. we don't even know how many of these kids don't make it may have been waylaid into sex trafficking or killed because they fell off the train. we have no way of tracking that

so that is our direct message to the families in central america. do not send your children to the borders. if they do make it, they will get sent back. more important, they may not make it. >> sean: you might remember the democrats expressed no outrage over those comments. in fact, there was little outrage over the nasty deportations under the obama administration. we have those pictures that we show to you. the first with donald trump. remember the conditions under obama? migrant holding facilities? all under obama. no anger when the obama administration for children -- yeah -- in cages. fake moral outrage is the democratic party's favorite political weapon. we sought over russia and the collusion hoax. they called trump a russian opera but refused to acknowledge hillary clinton's dirty bought a russian dossier, played in the spying scandal of an opposition party candidate, than a

president-elect and a president. we saw it in the 33,000 subpoenaed emails. they are now obsessed with phantom charges against the president with no underlying crime. yet, with hillary clinton, acid wash, delete 33,000 emails, hammers, removing sim cards. not a peep from the media mob or the democratic party. we see it on issues of racism and sexual assault. don't forget the democratic lieutenant governor and governor of virginia. yeah, they are still both in office. we see it on climate change. at last night, four of the candidates onstage said that climate change was the biggest threat to our nation. once at donald trump. i assume they all flew in a plane to last night's debate. i highly took they took up he is from the airport either. but it is the democratic party's

moral compass, alexandria ocasio-cortez, gets her way, we are going to ban airplanes and cows, the combustion engine, the lifeblood of our economy are absolutely gone. you get the picture, ocasio-cortez weighing in on the democratic primary. she is not happy with the current front runner. in fact, ocasio-cortez just trashed sleepy, creepy uncle joe biden into an interview saying that the 76 rolled former vp would depress turnout and is not a pragmatic choice. i actually agree with her for once. anyway, if joe biden's small, sad kickoff rally is any indication, voters are not excited. i don't see excitement for any of these candidates. joining is now, senator ted cruz from the great state of texas. senator, how are you? >> be with you. >> sean: i watch and i watch closely and i play very close attention, it's not every second, minute, hour of every day hating donald trump, then is the new greendale, then it's socialism at a level we have

never seen before with a protectable result, correct? >> the debate last night -- >> sean: take a sip of water. it happens, don't worry about it, senator. it's okay. but the democrats seem to have a few agenda items, eating drum, new greendale. >> the debate last night, the clown car has broken. there is no break and it only steers. it was scary last night. it was scary to see the democrats falling all over each other to get further and further and further left. the democrats, you just went through their monolog powerfully. you saw them embrace late-term abortions, he saw them embrace 70% tax rate, socialism, they want to take away everyone's health insurance.

and you saw them embrace open borders. one of the most disturbing exchanges was when the some of those candidates began saying they wanted to eliminate the provision and law that makes it illegal to cross the border. makes it a crime to cross the border illegally. as you know, last month, we apprehended 144,000 people in the month of may crossing illegally. the democratic solution is let's not make it a crime. there you go, the problem goes away. that is open borders, it is a responsible, and it is sadly where the democratic party is today. >> sean: how did we go from supporting obama's position to its immoral, the guy you knew, robert francis, bozo, beto, whatever it is, he is saying tear down the walls, but 90% of america's heroin comes across the border, we are losing 300 people a week in the opioid crisis, then sentinel, add that

to the mix. i've interviewed these border agents who have spent over a decade talking about children, young girls being traffic for prostitution. >> we have both been back to the border to really try to highlight the crisis we are having there. we saw some positive development today congress finally passed what the president asked for, that includes over a billion dollars for border control, a trillion dollars for i.c.e. that is good but here is the bad news, the democrats in congress refused to close the loopholes causing this crisis. they refused to do anything to fix the crisis and i will tell you one of the most disturbing reports i am getting, i am getting more and more reports ff cartels and traffickers renting children.

because idiotic policy that the democrats have put in place is that if someone shows up with a child, that they are allowed to stay and go free, and as a result, you are seeing little children who are suddenly finding more and more instances of children with adults who are now their family, that are strangers to them, but the child is essentially there get out of jail free card. that is cruel to incentivize kids being abused like that and the democrats on that stage, the democrats on the stage right now, not a single one of them is willing to do anything to fix i it. >> sean: open borders and amnesty is a big part of their agenda, i don't even think there are any restrictions on abortions. they make it into what happened in virginia and all these other states where we talk about during the fourth -- it's not abortion, it's infanticide. post birth infanticide. then we've got a 70% top marginal tax rate for individuals.

90% for corporations. how many people's taxes in terms of getting population, it wasn't a close to 400,000 in the last year or two? >> we get over 1,000 people a day move into the state of texas. why question right because that's where the jobs are. they are fleeing states like california and new york. >> sean: wait a minute, mike huckabee sat on the show the other day, if you are taking a u-haul from california to texas it's about $1600. i have not heard this. but if you are returning, you're basically doing u-haul a favor, it's $400 but it is probably negotiable. they might give it to you for $100. a spigot that is exactly right, for a long time , the price differential, going to california versus going to texas is about 300% price differential in u-haul, that is been true for years because everyone is fleeing the sinking ship, as you have the crazy left jacking up taxes, jacking up regulations.

and welcoming people coming illegally. and the job producers, the small business owners are fleeing the state of california, and in texas -- i'll tell you something interesting, the story came at a couple months ago. you know what the number one city in the united states of america for millennials moving into his? my hometown of houston. they are moving to the most diversity in america, why? because of the jobs. there are jobs in the wages are going up and you have opportunity because the government doesn't put their boot on the back of the necks of small businesses. >> sean: it's interesting, bill maher, i don't like him but he sometimes makes some very honest statements. he said not a good start because they didn't answer the first question. 70% of americans -- we now have the best employment situation in america since 1969. principal, by the way, that you have supported your entire career, cutting taxes, we

are now energy dependent for the first time in 75 years. at the new greendale says no oil, no gas in ten years. by the way, many of them are buying into this insanity, the new greendale. what was that due to estate light texas, what with that due to the economy in general if you had a 70% and 90% tax rate? >> it would destroy opportunity all across the country. that way from belmar, i retweeted today bill maher because his tweet was exactly right, he said the first question in the debate -- >> sean: ted cruz retreating belmar, i like that. speak up but he rightly pointed out, he said 70% of americans say the economy is doing well. why do you guys think we should change it? and not one of the democrats had an answer. we've got -- you and your viewers know this, we have got the lowest unemployment and 50

years, lowest african-american unemployment ever recorded, lowest hispanic unemployment ever recorded. what they are proposing, the green new deal would cost will cost $93 million. it's hard to understand 1 million, a trillion, a billion, but let me put that in perspective. $93 trillion is more money than the enteral government has spent in the entire history of the united states of america going back to george washington. it would mean about $65,000 per family in america per year. that is where the democrats are. they are just -- donald trump hasn't broken the democratic party, they hate him so much they are embracing policies that would destroy policy and open up our borders. it's wrong. >> sean: obama biden eight years, 30 million new americans on food stamps, a million in poverty. now 6 million off of food stamps and 6 million new jobs in the

best employment situation since 1969. senator, good to see you. thank you for being with us. now, directly ahead, the democratic debate was so bad last night, it even the fake ns media is admitting trump won. sean spicer, they have more. later tonight, they did this behind my back. lawrence jones is at the debate in miami, he is asking liberals what they think. to me, this is really unfair. i've no idea what this preview is. >> sean hannity, i've never watched sean hannity because i know the sort of things you say on fox. >> sean: this is going to be fun. a straight-ahead. biopharmaceutical researchers. pursuing life-changing cures in a country that fosters innovation here, they find breakthroughs... like a way to fight cancer

>> sean: the democrats had an abysmal debate kick off last night. performance was so bad that even the liberal media couldn't deny. take a look. >> i still in my heart of hearts don't see anyone on that stage tonight that would be to trump. to. >> that is what trump is banking on. all those fights happened last night with people moving to the left, people sitting there thinking please, please, please have more democratic debates that look like this because it's an opportunity for them to paint the democrats as being out of touch. >> i'm a little disappointed, i think we needed to have more discussions on issues that affect americans are busy but i. >> virtually every democrat took positions to the left of barack obama, playing right into their plan to portray the democrats simply too far to the left, effectively a socialist party. >> sean: joe concha, america first action and former white house press secretary sean spicer, we will start with you.

first of all, i did know half the people. i'm like, who is this guy? wait a minute, who is this one? it was this guy? >> you may not have them tonight, either. >> sean: exactly. then i'm listening, they're all saying the same thing, no, no, pree.r. education , freer health care! i'm really going to, whatever. >> i was going to try to explain things but i thought that might be pandering to your audience, you're absolutely right. it is one thing, i am agreeing with the mainstream media but that is what last night was, they didn't lay a glove on donald trump but they didn't play one on bernie sanders or joe biden. with the exception of elizabeth warren who is at least within striking distance, the other people on that stage tonight, if they don't tear down bernie sanders or joe biden, they have no shot. i really don't understand what

happened last night. for some of these people, this is the first time they have an opportunity, albeit for 60 seconds, to address the american people or the constituency of msnbc who are their base, and they didn't do anything to impress them. there was no one that stood out. we are sitting here the day after talking about which phrase in spanish was more authentic? that is a problem. >> sean: what's your reaction, joe concha? >> s&p. small and pandering. they looked small. i agree with donny deutsch in terms of, you put a donald trump against any of these candidates and he would dominate the room, while, again, to shawn's point and others that you played in some of those clips, they didn't talk about addressing in any real way solutions around in a immigration, health care, what they would do to make this economy better, if that is possible considering the way it is going. yeah, from a technical

perspective, msnbc losing their audio. i thought they were going to blame the russians or the kgb but that didn't happen. everything went wrong. >> sean: i thought the russians didn't. >> can i make one point that it got lost in the discussion here? i agree with joe absolutely, the idea that they spend more time on set design then figuring out whether or not people could hear or listen to the debate it's been a much ridiculous. but the other thing that is interesting in this whole deal, if you look at this whole last cycle, the republican one back in 2016, the first night that fox hosted the debate in cleveland, we had 24 million people. at last night, 15 million people and by the way, it was on three networks. telemundo, msnbc and nbc. the idea that with all three combined, that they were that low on the scale to compare it to where we where shows a lack of enthusiasm and interest in this race that hasn't gotten talked about today.

>> sean: everything happened on their watch. obama-biden's record stands on their own. obamacare, 13 more million on food stamps, lowest recovery since the '40s. i said all the time. but now we have the trump record. 6 million new jobs, 6 million fewer americans on food stamps the first time we are energy independent, we have the best en this country since 1969. i don't even think you were born by 1969. were you? >> i was not, nope you don't even think sean spicer was, frankly. we are '70s children. >> sean: i could tell you the mets met starting lineup. they won the world series. cleon jones, tim mcgraw in the bullpen, tom seaver, race at ikea , but harrelson, mike do you want me to keep going? i was eight years old. >> that was about to be 80 more my time.

i hope joe biden tonight, it's not going to happen, but there should be a question and i hope it would happen, what would you do to prevent russian interference in the 2016 election when you were aware of it? since that is on his record. everybody blames trump. what about the people in office? i would like to see that. do your point, donald trump has a story in a record to run on. one of these 25 democrats running on besides giving away free things and not being able to explain how to pay for besides taxing the american people. >> i just want to say this, the economy is booming but what he has done on opioids, veterans, the military, cutting regulations, this president's record is in as it was a last cycle. this is not a theoretical discussion. this president has a record to run on that extend well beyond the economy. it talks about what he has done for the veterans, how he has plucked up the military budget and how he is combating the opioid addiction problem in so many communities. that didn't even get brought up

last night. i don't know how these people feel like they are going to take on donald trump when they can't even contrast what they are going to do to the record he has had as president. >> it doesn't help the fact that the moderators didn't bring up any of those topics to ask him about. it was all about social issues and on about the issues that matter to the people at home watching. >> sean: thank you, guys. appreciate your insight. breaking news on the deep state front. fbi now stonewalling the release of key documents relating to disgraced former fbi deputies. a lawrence jones at the democratic debate asking liberals what they think of me. i didn't know about this. lawrence is in big trouble when he gets back. straight-ahead. calling all sunscreen haters. you're gonna love this. new coppertone sport clear. not thick, not hot, not messy, just clear, cool, protected. coppertone sport clear. proven to protect.

deal of exculpatory evidence that came from cia undercover informants. the australian diplomat proved that george papadopoulos was telling the truth, and so was carter page, yet, that wasn't provided to the fisa court. they are required under law to provide that information. so that is a fraud on the court as well as other frauds. hats off to judicial watch, the only way you will ever get the truth out of somebody like andrew mccabe and the fbi is to sue them. they deliberately defied obama's executive order of 2009, which says you cannot -- first of all, you must always respond to foia request. you can't hide information from you can't over classify for the purpose of concealing embarrassing information and misconduct. yet, christopher wray does it every single day. >> sean: by the way, bilateral meeting now taking place.

here's a life picture from the g20 in japan. angela merkel, the chancellor with the president. ought to be interesting and we will continue to look at that. sara carter, the exculpatory information is fascinating because we have now learned that everybody was warned in particular about, you know, the fisa application, the dossier that was used, that it was tainted, that it was political, that it was not something that they were able to affirm as accurate and true. >> yes come in the evidence that documents, those were the documents that actually changed -- >> sean: if i may interrupt, the president is speaking. >> be spending some time together later on also but i just want to say she is a fantastic person, a fantastic woman, i am glad to have her as a friend. thank you, angela. [speaking german]

>> thank you, thank you very much. we have a lot on our agenda, especially the fact that german investment in the united states is -- >> sean: involvement in the deep state because, when we find the exculpatory evidence, i will let you pick it up from there. >> we were talking about the gang of eight documents, and while we referring to that is because those of the documents that everyone says changed everybody's mind. once they saw the highly classified information that was in there that dealt with the exculpatory evidence, that is what was so essential in changing the minds of people like paul ryan and others like

trey gowdy, who actually saw the court. and as far as judicial watch -- >> sean: let's go back to the president, he is talking about the debates. >> 100% of the illegal immigrants coming into our country brought in by the democrats, unfortunately, i couldn't discuss what they did to american citizens, that is not a good thing. so we just passed that and then i came here, and i will say that we are going to have a very trysting time, they have a debate going on. they had the first debate last night that you saw, it wasn't very exciting, i can tell you that. they have another one going on tonight. they definitely have plenty of candidates. that's about it. i look forward to spending time with you rather than watching that. >> reporter: thank you very much. [reporter questions] >> thank you.

>> a great friend of mine, thank you. thank you very much. >> sean: all right, we we just want more time. in japan, we will actually let her answer this time. we will make a third attempt. they said he was talking about the debate and how boring they were, you could see that smile on the president's face that only he could give. >> i want to say one thing, i think angela merkel was quite surprised when president trump said he was much happier being there with her than actually watching the debate. i think that is the first time he is or that coming from president trump's mouth in a long time.

i'm sure it started off on the right foot, so going back to what we were discussing earlier with the exculpatory evidence, this is the reason why judicial watch, and after we will go through what they have been covered, is fighting so hard to get those documents. thing about this, andrew mccabe, in order for us to thoroughly understand what happened with andrew mccabe, with john brennan, with james comey, we need access to their text messages and emails. this is what they are fighting so hard to get. the american people deserve to know what they were doing, what they were planning and why this investigation started into president trump. >> sean: tom, what is so important about this information you are getting through the freedom of information act, and what we got this week, executive order, 12333, the one that came out last night and the night before, these are important, but it is hard, how long does it

take the average freedom of information act request that you guys put into get released? >> often well over a year. and that requires a federal lawsuit. and in the case of the text messages that we are talking about, the fbi has taken the legal position, and extraordinary legal position that i am not aware of government agencies taking it. not one text message should be subject to the freedom of information act. all of andrew mccabe's text messages, they don't want to give us. they don't want to give us strzok text messages, james comey text messages. forget about exculpatory information, that is criminal information you bet they are withholding because they have the text messages, and this is a position only the fbi has taken. it's not only something the justice department believes, it's christopher wray's, fbi defending the corruption of the last gang that ran it, the james comey gang and we know

that andrew mccabe has text mess about hillary clinton and donald trump, just as paige and strzok did and they don't want to release it under the freedom of information act. we know what's in there, generally, because we know andrew mccabe was talking about clinton and trump, we are waiting for the text messages. the fbi just filed something a little over a week ago saying they shouldn't have to search for text messages. >> unbelievable. >> sean: your reaction. because this is what the fbi does, they think they are above the law because they are e law. they hide -- secrecy breeds corruption. and it leads to immense power and that is what the fbi and christopher wray are all about. i will give you one quick example, the kathleen cadillac memos that came out, just a fraction of them, christopher wray heavily redacted them and then he retroactively classified them so that nobody can see them

until 2041. that's a 22 years from now. i'll be dead, so you'll have to tell me up there or down here what's in them. this just underscores that concealing evidence and secrecy is what christopher wray's fbi is all about. they will not be transparent or honest or honest. >> the attorney general needs to get beyond the classification debate and just focus on transparency, generally, about this tremendous corruption scandal. we've been waiting too long for these secret documents that we know we will expose this illegal targeting of the president. >> sean: the last word. to speak at the fbi, the cia, the doj , all these agencies and departments work for us, the american people, they are paid for by our taxpayer dollars, they need to be open with us, we need to clean house and we need to know what happened so we as a nation can move forward. >> sean: tom, sarah, but thank you.

we appreciated. night two, democrats, miami, we sent lawrence jones down to miami. i have no idea. apparently my staff did, lawrence knew. we are going to have a little chat about this, asking debate attendees about the front runner joe biden first. >> joe biden is the front runner. are you comfortable him being the nominee? >> absolutely. >> why? >> i think he has the best chance of winning and that is the most important thing. >> joe biden is not my preferred candidate but certainly anyone who can contend and win the nomination to go against trump, that is who i am willing to support. >> i want my candidate to say yes, this is what i believe and i understand that you may not believe that, but this is exactly why i believe that. i don't think he will give that explanation. >> i think after donald trump and how right side extremist is,

we need a change in this country. after taking one step back, we need to tech two steps forward and i think bernie can do that for us. >> joe biden has flip-flopped on all lot of issues, >> totally. i don't see him as a flip-flop or. >> how do you feel about joe biden accepting deals in the ukraine while vice president biden was in office? does that concern you? >> it absolutely doesn't appear to divide ands are an honorable family. >> sean: this is where lawrence and my staff -- while they didn't tell me this part, asking attendees what they thought of yours truly appeared great, this ought to be interesting. >> sean hannity? isn't he just some but why do? i don't really know his character. >> sean hannity? not a fan. [laughs] >> sean hannity, i've never watched sean hannity because i know the sort of things you say on fox.

>> sean hannity, i wish he would wake up to the fact that literally every other industrialized modern country in the world has health care as a human right in america is literally the only one. open your eyes to that and let's get health care in this country. >> my grandma loves him for some odd reason but i don't like sean hannity. he spreads lies, false news. >> we love you sean, don't listen to the haters. got a lot of support especially from the veterans and the latino community. we love you. >> sean: my advice to the last woman, my grandma, a smart lady. fox news contributor dan bongino. lawrence, i'm not talking to you right now. dan bongino, i love lawrence, support lawrence, we have become good friends -- you know, what do you think of that little trick that they just played on me? lawrence, not you. that would be for dan. >> considering i am guest hosting tomorrow night after work with your staff tomorrow --

i think it was great! it was awesome! you guys are terrific! talk about being between a rock and a hard place on that one. listen, quickly before i get there, i made a huge mistake last night. you know i'm a bit of a health nut. took a zinc magnesium supplement before i watched the debate. magnesium can put you to sleep. watching that thing last night, after taking magnesium was like -- my eyelids had 75 pounds weights attached to them. what a boring display of a really bad ideas last night during the debate. thank god we had lawrence to spice it up down there. >> sean: lawrence, let me ask you a question. you knew that i didn't know about this, correct? >> that is correct. >> sean: okay. and my staff knew that i didn't know about, correct? >> right. >> sean: [laughs] all right, i can take a joke. you know, i didn't think it was

that bad. anything worse than you couldn't put on tv? >> i mean, you had one person that likes to, and the grandma appear to so i think you got something going. >> sean: one person in the grandma liked me, that's it. [laughter] is not exactly my crowd. >> come on. obama went after you. >> sean: when they attacked lawrence at the stupid impeachment thing, who was there for lawrence? >> yeah, yeah. >> we cover that on fox & friends the next day. >> that's right, that's right. real quick, the focus of the package was about biden and it was to highlight the hypocrisy and you are seeing it right now on the debate stage, the revisionist history, everyone was asked to raise their hand about if they would support health care, as we all know, obamacare does not cover that and as we know it happened under the obama administration as well, but the flip-flop was the hyde amendment or just

health care is astounding, and the fact that so many of the democrats are allowing him to get away with it is beyond me. >> sean: i think that is important, but actually let this play out. if it is positioned hating trump, and their other position is insane socialism, it's never worked, eliminating gas and oil, eliminating gas and oil and airplanes, let it keep going. they are digging their own hole, let them keep digging. >> i thought there were two key moments, one that will sting later on here it happened again tonight. when they said, who wants to cancel private insurance and medicare for all? [laughter] elizabeth warren, forget about bill de blasio, he is irrelevant -- but they raised their hands. you like your insurance was wrong here's elizabeth warren with her hand up saying she's going to cancel it and then another moment they actually had this moment of sanity where they

said, are we going to get medicare for all? do you understand you are going to put every hospital out of business, right? [laughter] every one on the stage looked perplexed, a moment of reason, what we say to this question right those moments stick out. the more they talk, the worse it gets. let them talk. >> sean: do they believe in socialism, true believers? >> i think the people do, but i don't think the candidates to do. remember, let's be clear what the position is. with the exception of joe biden, all the candidates are anti-obamacare. they want to get rid of obamacare. and now have socialized medicine. that is the position of many in the party. and remember, in the past elections, the 2016, we were debating if we wanted to keep or get rid of obamacare. all of them want to get rid of it with the exception of joe biden and put socialized medicine. to be i agree. guys, good to see appear to lawrence, all

right, i'm going to put this in my memory bank. mayor de blasio is apologizing tonight after making a massive gaffe on the campaign trail. our villain of the day straight ahead. new coppertone sport clear. not thick, not hot, not messy, just clear, cool, protected. coppertone sport clear. proven to protect. welcome to fowler, indiana.

one of the windiest places in america. and home to three bp wind farms. in the off-chance the wind ever stops blowing here... the lights can keep on shining. thanks to our natural gas. a smart partner to renewable energy. it's always ready when needed. or... not. at bp, we see possibilities everywhere. to help the world keep advancing. they're america's bpursuing life-changing cures. in a country that fosters innovation here, they find breakthroughs... like a way to fight cancer by arming a patient's own t-cells... because it's not just about the next breakthrough... it's all the ones after that.

you know those butterflies aren't actually in the room? hey, that baker lady's on tv again. she's not a baker. she wears that apron to sell insurance. nobody knows why. she's the progressive insurance lady. they cover pets if your owner gets into a car accident. covers us with what? you got me. [ scoffs ] she's an insurance lady. and i suppose this baker sells insurance, too? progressive protects your pets like you do. you can see "the secret life of pets 2" only in theaters.

>> sean: villain of the day a repeat offender, comrade mary de blasio of new york city. he quoted che guevara while campaigning in miami today. take a look. >> sean: then he was forced to apologize tweeting "i did not know the phrase i use in miami today was associated with che guevara and did not mean to offend anyone who heard it that way, a certain apologizing for not understanding and history. unlimited is a literal message to the striking airport workers that i believe that they would be victorious in their strike unfortunately." i don't think that's going to

work. remember, we will never, ever ever be the destroyed, rage, hate-trump media mob. just not going to do it. let not your heart be troubled by the way. we will be back here soon. laura ingraham is not next. hope you -- ♪ >> laura: i'm laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight. we will tell you everything you need to know about last night's democrat debate, the pipe dream proposals, plans to wreck this economy, the media freak out and pandering like i'm never seen it before. so who was the big winner? we will tell you. ed henry and frank luntz. this will be fun. they break it all down. plus, he's been accused of leaking last week's ice raid to the media. he's here exclusively tonight in the only interview he's doing. the dhs secretary kevin mcallen, and he sets the record straight. also, the pres
