report, we will never be the psychotic mob. dvr "hannity," you'll never miss an episode.al let not your heart be troubled, laura ingraham is next, we will see you back here tomorrow night. ♪ >> laura: i'm laura ingraham, this is "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight. close the doors, coordinated leaks, and career bureaucrats -- can americans trust this impeachment process as it is currently unfolding? house minority leader kevin mccarthy, former independent counsel ken starr, and former acting ag matt whitaker are here with important insight you don't want to miss. also tonight, howell vice president mike pence figure into all of this? he is here exclusively to tell us about that and the recent cease-fire deal in turkey, will it hold? plus john durum zeros in on four key players behind the collusion

smear, former governor mike huckabee and former fbi senior official chris swecker react. but first over the past few nights, we have been laying out the coordinated effort by a cabal of diplomatic and intel bureaucrats to offend the l presidency of donald trump. when the president called them out for their catastrophic failures of process and policy, they were offended. whenen he demanded that nato countries. free writing on the u.s. taxpayers, they were horrified.h when he began making good on his promise to bring home our troops, they were shocked. when the deep states insurance policy and russia collusion narrative imploded, they decided to bring in reinforcements. of course, they t found them in the house. democrats are seriously trying to construct an abuse of power article of impeachment.

i have a question, if trump is so obviously off the rails, why not hold their fake impeachment inquiry out in the open? sunlight is the best political disinfectant. easy answer. the closed-door shuffle allows democrats to preset the theme of each witness, spin the secret testimony, cherry pick then leak the phrase is most favorable to their impeachment narrative. acting ambassadorav to ukraine o bill taylor, a never trumper himself, had his turn in the star chamber today. >> it's not even noon and this is the most disturbing day in congress so far. it's very troubling. >> the testimony was explosive, i would say this is the top witness we have learned from so far. >> he gave tremendous testimony today.in >> laura: spin spin spin. sources familiar with the testimony told fox news that taylor didn't offer any new

evidence and have zero first-hand knowledge or direct evidence of the quid pro quo that democrats claim was a slam-dunk. this isn't about the truth. this is about confirming a thesis regardless of the fact that the ukrainian president said there was no pressure applied to him and no quid pro quo. which brings us to the media. they have been aching for impeachment since election night and thus will parrot whatever adam schiff spits out, no questions asked.le >> it is entirely possible this day will turn out to be one of the most consequential days in the impeachment inquiry. >> the impeachment may have been turbocharged but his testimony of career diplomat bill taylor. >> bill taylor was not just a smoking gun, this was a smoking howitzer. >> laura: it gets better. they don't just publish articles swith completely anonymous sources. last year, "the new york times"

published an entire op-ed written by an anonymous supposedly. senior trump officil who even claimed to be himself part of the resistance, patriotic resistance. mr. courageous also shop a book deal, at drops next month. according to the publisher, the author sees this as an act of conscience and of duty, what a crock. every anti-trump tattler is depicted as a selfless saint in the media. it all smacks of desperation to me. the left's hatred for this president has been well documented but what they are now openly signaling is they don't nke you, the american voter, either. they don't trust you to delivery a result that they want so they will try to remove this entire process from your hands altogether. the president won election

nearly three years ago as an outsider and i was thinking about this -- i think today, ironically, he's still kind of an outsider. what do i mean? the bipartisan establishment, they never accepted him as legitimate. this despite his stellar economic record, record number of judges confirmed, and the leadership he has shown against the china threat. r he's still a disrupter, he's still the ultimate rorschach test for the old guard. the better america does under trump, the more negatively they think that reflects on the so-called experts who for decades itt squandered american prosperity for global insanity. if they can impeach trump evenpr on a bogus narrative teased out in secret, the permanent resistance can say "see, i told you so" and feel vindicated -- this is their revenge.

yet as usual they underestimate the common sense of the american people who may just have their own revenge against the global impeachment mob on november 2nd 2020.ri joining me now is house minority leader kevin mccarthy, congressman, how can democrats run on impeachment inquiry like we are seeing on full after day? >> first, you could not be more right in that angle, everything you said is a hundred percent ecorrect. what they are doing, they are changing every we ever had. what happened in the intel committee, even the members cannot read any information unless one of adam schiff's own staffers are in the room next to them. we are wondering who that anonymous person is, i bet it's adam schiff -- remember how we made up the transcript of what he wanted the phone call toay s? they go out to the press and say taylor is terrible and

adam schiff won't let us talk about what happened, in 90 seconds, we have john radcliffe destroy his whole argument. we are finding just his questioning refuted everything of what adam schiff leaves out there, there is no quid pro quo and the one thing you find out in this process is all this information is just like that whistle-blower, we haven't seen that whistle-blower anywhere. second, third, fourth and information. >> laura: i've been hearing about who this second supposed whistle-blower is going to be, this has become more evident to me after reading the pages of drivel from the star witness. democrats are trying to respond to your criticism by justifying keeping it all under wraps.

>> because very few witnesses know some of the very important details, we want to conduct it in a way that other witnesses don't know what witnesses are going to say because otherwise they could work together and cook up alibis and tailor their testimony. the fact we have been able to keep it so close has protected against that. >> laura: they are patriotic, they are protecting the process by keeping it secret, that's a good trick. >> you know what they found? even in investigations, the longer it goes out the more their lives come to fruition. remember what schiff said to us, the whistle-blower was trying to stop them from coming forward, there was quid pro quo. now we find in the conversation there was not, he met with the whistle-blower and the whistle-blower goes to the inspector general and never says that. ra every day progresses we now find more lies, this is a script written, and 48 hours we would never be putting america through this.

>> laura: an msnbc analyst i'm sure very close to you ishr repeating what schiff and swalwell are saying, republicans are focused on process because they believe the under lying facts are bad for them. >> all i hear from republican lawmakers are concerns about process, this inquiry is unfair, adam schiff is running it like we are in communist china, they hammer adam schiff inn the process but even when there were talking points coming out, the republicans in the house are not bothering to use them. >> the republicans are saying let us have the transcript, it's the republican members of congress who are going down there and who is denying this? adam. he doesn't want the public to see this because he knows if the public saw this they would find one more time he lied to america.

>> laura: i read the entire 15 page opening statement by taylor and you know what i find repeatedly true? these are second, third, in one instance i kid you not fourth hand accounts of what was said. we still stick to the same conclusion or the facts that the ukrainians were not aware that the security aid was withheld or held up until august 29th. it was released on september 11th, how can there be a quid pro quo when they weren't even aware that it was withheld? >> it's very simple, they are claiming there was a quid pro quo with the president trump with the president of ukraine on july 25th. they now find all they said on augustra 29th, ukraine found out the money was being held up from politico. you know what happened on september 11th? the money was sent forward. what did ukraine have to do to send the money forward? nothing. what is the definition of a quid pro quo? >> laura: i want to get back to what i stated at the top.

i believe in reading this, he's a career diplomat, he was with the administration, they despise the president's style, his distrust for the global elite and they are the global elite. i hate to say it but it seems like it is the revenge of the global here. if theyes so angry he has been successful and his success reflects badly on them. it's a very prideful way of going about them. >> they hate the idea that a man can come into office, never been elected before, stand up to nato that they have to pay, stand up to china, while they still everything that we have. you know what else, he's not invited to meetings. he talks about third and fourth dance. in his own testimony we find out july 25th is the phone call with

the president, ukraine doesn't know any money is being held up and we release the money. >> laura: every time wharton's aunt lynn says the president says this is no quid pro quo, he won't take that for an answer -- he is arguing with the conversation at the president has already had with i other people, he is upset about that because that narrative collapses.ll i highlighted and i dog-ear it, back in law school, thank you for being here tonight. joining me now, ken starr, former independent counsel, fox news contributor. i want to read you something from bill taylor's testimony. by mid-july it was becoming clear to me that the meeting president zelensky wanted wasin conditioned on the investigation of burisma and the interference in the 2016 election. it was also clear this condition was driven by the irregular policy channel that was guided by mr. giuliani. did taylor actually advance the

democrats case that trumps conduct was impeachable? with that? >> absolutely not. we are in the context of the president's conduct of foreign relations. you are right, he's a disrupter and he chooses to use a different avenue -- is that wise or not? that's a policy squabble. i simply don't think we are in impeachment land at all and i would add to your observations about the whole process, speaker pelosi needs to call for the vote, now more than ever, especially since we are hearing from the senate side that the process is being viewed asas illegitimate. all the more reason why not just adam schiff but speaker pelosi needs to call to account. >> laura: when you watch how this has unfolded, it's like clockwork. every day there is a new witness, it's built up as a saint, courageous, hero, it's

hero worship. build them up, testify in secret, have a prepared statement, that ultimately leaks or is released somehow. they cherry pick that and to say we are being transparent and wee are just trying to protect the process by keeping it secret. i have heard a lot in my day but that's a nice little trick they are trying to pull. >> secret proceedings are always when we are talking about politics and not the grand jury process, why is this classified information and there is no genuine public policy reason? as to why this should not be open. you can all assess the credibility. here's a witness testifying for hours on end, we need to be able to take the measure of the person. >> laura: we have these witnesses going up to testify clearly against the wishes of in this case mike pompeo. the white house has said it doesn't believe the inquiry is

legitimate, does the white house or the state department or the executive branch have any recourse that wouldou be wise to take legally here? or would that just look so bad? >> there is the politics but also in terms of the law, you can't go into court and to say this is illegitimate, it's totally inconsistent with our constitutional traditions. we need an injunction. the courts would rightly throw that out, we are going to have to see this very important process unfold and there's probably going to be some subpoena enforcement on the house, we will have to wait to see about that.su >> laura: it's great to see you as always. the media and political class have hit the impeachment frenzy from just about every angle but few were asking the obvious question -- what could this travesty mean for the future of our republic? here to answer that question former acting u.s. attorney general matt whitaker. i have been thinking about thiss

a lot lately, long after trump is gone whetherr he is reelected or serves two terms, what happens next? if this is what you can do to upend a presidency. >> i think you are going to see a lot of payback. you're going to see a future republican house speaker that's going to be able to declare an impeachment inquiry and follow it up with exactly what is happening right now. secret testimony, selective leaking to preferred outlets, and it's not good for the republic. 13 months before we have another election, from whatt i can tell and my experience, it's really a lifetime in this game both in the state of iowa and in washington, d.c., this is just not good for the republic. >> laura: it's corrosive and those that are perpetrating it

cast themselves as the white knights and they are saving the republic from the man whose policies they disagree with so vehemently. and whose tone and whose demeanor they have utter disdain for. i really go back to that, they never saw him as legitimate, the insurance policy of peter strzok failed, mueller failed and now they are on to the next. >> these global elitists, these careerist have made promises and set in place a world establishment that operate a certain way and president trumpo has asks questions like why do we do this this way? why don't people pay -- why don't germany and france, why don't they pay 2% into nato? these questions have upset the apple cart. he is being punished for this. i'm a former prosecutor and what i know is this is a perfect time for preliminary hearings where

you would say show us your evidence. what evidence of a crime do you have? abuse of power is not a crime. that's fundamentally boil it down, the constitution is very clear that there has to be some pretty egregious behavior and they cannot tell the american people what this case is even about. >> laura: i'm reading this bill taylor opening statement in my first reaction is anything that is 15 pages single-spaced, like someone who has to put the resume on two pages you don't want to hire them. most of it is third and fourth hand accounting of -- he told him and then he told him and on the president told him but i disagree with that. that's how it goes. >> we have the transcript of the phone call, we have the primary evidence which is all the prosecutor would need to put in front of a jury. you don't need witnesses that know of the evidence when you have thefr evidence.

as i look at this, this congress, nancy pelosi and the democratss are convinced they ae going to impeach the president, they think this is the next best thing after the mueller investigation failed and they learned the lesson if they do it fast before everybody catches up and the evidence is distilled down to a prosecutable case, they can pull this one off. until we get through 2020, this is our new world that we live in and i fear it's going to be our future. >>s laura: what about the white house's response so far? there's not a war room up and running, but this is a coordinated effort, coordinated message of the day. they all get parroted by the media and what is the message of the p day and is that even appropriate? >> from what i can tell come you don't need a war room when you have a warrior and this president is going to fight this, he understands what is at stake and he's going to take his case to the american people. i have a lot of confidence having served in his cabinet

that he's going to be able to communicate what is at stake here and i think the american people b are going to respond. >> laura: this is revenge of the global elites, maybe they didn't like being called a fake news but this is payback. the elites are like you are coming into my world now. that's how i see it. thanks so much for coming into night, up next i talk exclusively with vice president mike pence about the cease-fire in syria he helped negotiate and his new role in the impeachment battle, stay there.si role in tt ba

>> laura: new tonight, the cease-fire of turkish military operations against syrian kurds has been extended. russia and turkey reached a deal to jointly patrol northern syria, the same border where u.s. troops were patrolling with the turks two weeks ago.

the news coming hours after i spoke exclusively with mike pence who negotiated the cease-fire last week.e he plans to be more vocal in the impeachment insanity and discusses all of that in my exclusive sit down with him. >> great to see you. >> laura: give us an update of the kurdish pullback from the safe zone, you negotiated the cease-fire last week -- is it holding and turkey says they are not out and we are going back in with even a more fierce determination. >> apart from limited scrimmages and fighting, the cease-fire has been holding and it continues to hold today. it's all a result of the leadership president trump provided here. the president made it very clear when turkish forces entered shsyria that turkish military action there was unacceptable. he sent a clear message to

president erdogan to pull back, he sent a strong sanctions and sent me an secretary pompeo therefore one mission and that was to end the violence. we are in constant communication with both sides, with the objective of hopefully achieving a permanent cease-fire in the next day and the laying foundation for real peace and stability. a safe zone that would exist between the traditionally kurdish syria and turkey and it would be a safe zone where we bring international partners to bear to ensure that there is a buffer between those two populations that have been warring for centuries. >> laura: are you surprised at the ferocity of republican condemnation? >> looked, 63 million americans voted to send president donald trump to the white house and one of the core

messages of that campaign that i was a part of was that we want to bring in end to endless wars, we want to bring our troops home. we welcome the temporary cease-fire that has been in place. >> laura: what is next for the united states? >> the president has made it clear there are more massive sanctions it will be imposed in the days ahead, that being said, we hope for better. we hope before the day s is out tomorrow, we will be moving into a permanent cease-fire. i will tell you that the criticism that the president has received for bringing our troops home and for now setting the conditions where if we achieve this cease-fire,co we will now finally bring the internationalf community in the to secure peace and stability is quite beyond me. ii actually heard one member of the senate say as our delegation

was headed to turkey to try and secure a cease-fire that it was too late. president trump doesn't believe it's ever too late to save lives. he sent our team there with the express purpose of ending the violence and giving an opportunity for our allies in the syrian defense forces in the kurdish population and our ally in turkey. >> and i believe that was mitt romney, mitt romney said that. if he has been leading the tcharge. >> it was very disappointing to me to hear senator romney say that.. to say that while literally people were dying on both sides of this conflict, innocent civilians in harm's way in the midst of this turkish invasion in syria, simply to say it was too late to even try, it was just unacceptable. >> laura: i have to move to the usmca, this is a signature accomplishment of the administration, you are in pennsylvania, you're heading to wisconsin -- >> it was established one year ago.

>> laura: the white house, the mexicans, the canadians, everyone agreeing, what is pelosi waiting for? >> since the president signed into law, we saw literally tens of thousands of factories close in the country and move to mexico. president trump said we can do better, i was in a lot of those negotiations. >> laura: what is the delay? only to prevent the president and you chalking up a huge victory for the country? >> politics is the only thing that that explains this delay. president trump into this deal with mexico and canada a year ago, it has been sitting on nancy pelosi's desk. >> laura: you are the presidents complicit sidekick on trade deals that hasn't worked and you talk tough and you don't esdeliver. >> i was in the scranton area

were joe biden was born and i was glad to have the debate because when joe biden was vice president, pennsylvania lost 50,000 manufacturing jobs. overall, under the obama administration, this country eflost 200,000 manufacturing jo. if joe biden wants to defend nafta, if he thinks we shouldn't be getting tough with our p trading partners and demanding free and fair and reciprocal trade, we will have that debate every day. >> laura: on the issue of impeachment, it was reported he will take a more forward-looking role, you will be more engaged in the impeachment battle, is that the case -- and if so what form does that take? >> it has been three years of endless investigations and a partisan attempt to overturn the results of the 2016 election. i think the american people have had enough. t we went through two and a half years of the mueller

investigation with outlandish accusations of collusion and obstruction until the justice department found no collusion, no obstruction, case closed. they took a brief break and we are talking about impeaching justice kavanaugh after trying to smear his name and reputation a year ago. then in the wake of all of this, suddenly we are back. two closed-door hearings on capitol hill, leaked information -- >> laura: what will you do in this effort? >> we are going to be out there telling the truth about this president's record and telling the truth about this partisan impeachment. there is no historical basis for what the democrats in congress are doing in this so-called impeachment inquiry. >> laura: how do you have career diplomats now turned into collaborators with the democrats rolling up to capitol hill, against the orders of the

secretaryy of state, they completely ignore the orders, democrat subpoena, they testify and it seems to be a permanent resistance within some of the career diplomatic corps. what can be done about that and how does that affect our future as a country, as an executive branch if you have this permanent resistance trying to undo the results of an election. >> we have some extraordinary men and women in our diplomatic corps who know their work and who are strong and out fighting for america's interests. but there is no question one president trump says we are going to drain the swamp but an awful lot of the swamp has been caught up in the state department bureaucracy and we're just going to keep fighting it. if we are going to fight it with the truth. the american people can read the transcript of the phone call the president had with president zelensky and they will see there was no quid pro quo.

with regard to ukraine, we were standing strong with ukraine against russian aggression. the last administration was onl sending them blankets. we are sending resources and missiles, we're going to make it possible for them to defend themselves. >> laura: were you ever comfortable with giuliani's role in getting involved in this? it's not against the law appear >> my involvement in ukraine was all directlyol from my conversations with the president and my conversations and meetings with president d zelensky. what i can tell you is that throughout all of that, we were focused on ensuring the united states was standing with ukraine for its territorial integrity against russian aggression and we were supporting and encouraging ukraine to deal with years of corruption and calling on european allies to do more to

support the ukrainian people. >> laura: what would you say to those republicans who are not telling the great story of this economy, the policies that have hit and the outrage that is being perpetrated with this behind closed doors proceedings. >> i would tell them, draw the inspiration from the fighter we elected to be president of the united states.he i will tell you that the president i were very encouraged to see every single republican yesterday voted against the motion to table a censure against adam schiff. i think in the days ahead, you're going to continue to see almost every republican in congress join the millions of americans who want to see an end to these endless investigations, they want to call out this partisan impeachment for what it is, i will make you a promise. whatever the democrats want to spend their time doing on capitol hill, this president,

his vice president and this administration are going to keep focus on the issues that we were elected to advance and keep america great. >> laura: great to seeue you, thank you so much. coming up, one high-ranking senator suspects the deep state is responsible for the delay in releasing the fisa abuse report. what does he know that we don't? u.s. attorney john durham's investigation zeroing in on four key players. we'll reveal who they are and moments. ♪ days and nights out of sync, days and nights out of sync, keeping me from the things i love to do. talk to your doctor, and call 844-214-2424.

former fbi special agent peter strzok, and british x spy christopher steele. a source is also telling fox news if the rumors are true than the findings in his review will blast the conduct of the fbi's russia investigation and justify drums warnings about the deep state. jenny to mike joining me now as mike huckabee and chris swecker former fbi assistant director,je how significant are these reports that he is closing in on particular individuals connected to how this whole travesty started?sihi >> he is a bulldog and i think it spells trouble but probably more as well whenba you incorporate the fisa abuse and potential abuse by some members of the intelligence community who aren't accustomed to be held accountable and accustomed to be held up to the daylight because most of what they do is in secret. i think john durham and a very

incapable investigator jack eckenrode and bill barr are getting to the bottom of things that we need to get to the bottom of. >> laura: john brennan i thinknk it was back on august, excuse me, october 3rd -- he expressed his concern that bill barr would be involved in this investigation at all, watch. >> i am supposedly going to be interviewed by mr. durham as part of his noninvestigation. given that barr is now accompanyingio durham, it makese think that the hand of politics and of trump are now being used to massage what this ongoing review was i investigation is, so i am o concerned. >> laura: he is sweating at the little bit. >> i think he's a little bit nervous, and he ought to be.

if anybody in the entire world to know something about using the power of government for political purposes, it's john brennan. i think he ought to be very concerned. it is increasingly apparent that there were many officials in tho obama administration both in the white house as well as in the doj and fbi that use their power -- and the cia -- to try to make sure donald trump didn't get elected and when he did, try to make sure he didn't last the full four years, that he couldn't go the distance. the significant thing about joht durham leading this investigation is he doesn't live in d.c., he's not in a bubble. he doesn't care if he gets invited to a georgetown cocktail party, he's after the truth and after the facts and that's what we all need and all deserve. nothing less than that. >> laura: it's important to hear what brendan said back in february of 2018 and this is to you about the origins of the russia investigation.

>> we, in the intelligence community, have collected a fair amount of information in 2016 about what the russians were doing on multiple fronts. we want to make sure the fbi had access. >> is the papadopoulos thing coming to the cia? >> i'm not going to get into details but the fbi has close relationship with the british counterparts. >> laura: one of the people being targeted by durham is himself ar steele, brit, was he perhaps hinting at that? >> what is at issue is predication, there is a legal amount of information that rises to the threshold where you can open an investigation, criminal investigation or intelligence investigation -- it's not generally assisted by the cia. the cia are information gatherers, the fbi are spy catchers.re there is usually not a lot of synergy between those two agencies for the cia is trying to gin up predication for a criminal investigation.

i use the word gin up because i think that is the big issue here, did they artificially create predication to get into an open investigation and the president himself. >> laura: governor huckabee, i find itno to be extremely disturbing that the american people go through this raucous election in 2016, we had all of these debates, campaigns, rallies, interviews, press opportunities -- the people have their say and yet there is a cobol inside the intel community, inside the diplomatic corps, obviously the media and a number on capitol hill who don't find this to be legitimate. these are the same people who talk about disenfranchising american voters and they always talk about voter suppression and so forth. i think this is one of the most catastrophic and obvious

instances of an attempt to disenfranchise voters. from the beginning of russia all the way to what we are seeing right now and i find it appalling. >> i couldn't agree more and i think what you just pointed out, it could be a voter here and they are maybe even a handful that have been disenfranchise, that's terrible -- not even one voter should ever lose his or her right to vote in the country who has a legal right to vote.ri but here, we have people within our government, we are paying their salaries and it would appear they worked hard to disenfranchise the very millions of people who elected the president. i think it's significant that senator chuck grassley made the comment he felt like there was something about the report of the ig, the reason it is taking so long to get because it may bl deep sixed by the deep state.

chuck grassley, one of the most honorable men in the senate, is not given to hyperbole. he is not given to being excitable. he is not one who typically is a person wrapped up in conspiracy theories. for him to say that was very, veryri telling. >> laura: thank you so much for being here tonight. up next, why does tulsi gabbard scare hillary clinton? why don't the clintons go away? dinesh d'souza is here to tell us, next. - [male narrator] the following is an urgent appeal from the international fellowship of christians and jews. - [female narrator] right now, in the former soviet union, there are thousands of jewish holocaust survivors trapped in relentless poverty. there's no heat, no electricity, no running water. they're cold, hungry, and sick and they're suffering. and dying. needlessly. - christians and jews together stand obedient to god to listen to his word. god gives us a special calling to help the orphan, the widow. the weakest, the survivors.

>> laura: democratic leaders are worried about 2020 and are desperate for someone, anyone else to enter the primary race. don't take it from me, that is what "the new york times" is reporting, anxious democratic establishment asks is there tanyone else? into that confidence vacuum steps hillary. she has been reportedly telling

people in private that she would enter the primary if she thought she would end, she hasn't ruled out jumping in. joining me now is conservative author, filmmaker, now out in paperback, "death of the nation." if trump hasn't started the day, happy he should be ending the day with that news. >> i think so. we knew she was traumatized after the last election results but she seems to have come completely unhinged. all of her public statements have an element of quirkiness even herer statement that goes this time i think i could beat trump again. q if you beat him the last time? why are you in the oval office? this would be like the boxer george foreman after the ali fight, fight in which he was knocked out, saying i won that fight because i threw more punchesli -- that's not the ruls of the game, sorry. she has been showing a paranoid

streak in the latest tulsi gabbard diversity is a reflection of that. >> laura: the attacks on tulsi gabbard are bizarre. she's a russian asset, trump is a russian asset, everyone is a russian asset who disagrees with hillary. the woman can't even a get a russian translation right on a button and she wants to be commander in chief. i don't think so. this is a dream for trump, they are not wild about this democrat field. socialism isn't selling in this economy, i think people are already tiring. it seems like beyond an overreach, so what are they left with? elizabeth warren? really? okay. >> i think this attack on tulsi gabbard was a massive tactical it's one thing to keep the focus on trump and try to say he's asf

tulsi gabbard and joel stein, you are devaluing the charge by making it preposterous. ironically, there is somebody in the field who would actually be a strong candidate in my view against trump, why? she's a veteran, she loves america, precisely the things that make her appealing to the voters in the center maker unappealing within the democratic party so i'm feeling really good because she has virtually zero chance of getting the nomination. >> laura: aoc said we just need more publicly owned companies, government owned companies in order to be more free. that's the other argument being weighed for the public to come works in brooklyn but it doesn't work most other places. i want to address this tweet from the president this morning where he used the word lynching, the same folks

have used that word of four and quoting to describe clinton's impeachment. be impeached, history is going to question whether or not this was just a partisan lynching. >> i will not vote for this lynching and the people's house. >> what you have going on here is a very unfortunate process of a verbal lynching. >> laura: don't you miss him? this is the same party that has been saying trump is hitler, stalin, pol pot all rolled into one. this is beyond hypocrisy. >> i think historically it's easy to look this up. lynching was a practice that was employed by democratic mobs against two groups of people. african-americans to prevent them largely from voting and white republicans. lynching was not confined to

african-americans, white republicans, white northern republicans who are registering black voters in the south, these were the targets of lynching. if you are the democrats, the party of lynching now pretending like lynching is a thing they didn't do, it's aa stain on the nation's history while it's not a stain on the nation's history, its estate on your history. >> laura: on the democratic party, thank you very much. it's great to see you, it will great to have you back when hillary gets in the race. coming up, what happens when climate protesters screw up your morning commute? he really got to get to work. my favorite "last bite" in a while is next.
