tv Hannity FOX News November 18, 2019 10:00pm-11:00pm PST
10:00 pm
irony of ironies, listened to russia. trace gallagher, thank you. we were back, tomorrow night, 8:00. the show that is the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness, and groupthink. good night from washington. prepare yourself. sean hannity is next. >> sean: tucker, great show as always. tonight, look at this number, it will go fast. 350 mondays until the presidential election. we have a brand-new speech from the attorney general of the united states, bill barr. it is sending shock waves through the washington swamp for good reason. this is a preview of coming attractions. this is a powerful statement. take a look. >> immediately after president trump won the election, opponents inaugurated what they called the resistance. and they rallied around and asked listed strategy of using every tool and maneuver to saboe functioning of the executive
10:01 pm
branch and his administration. now resistance is the language used to describe insurgency against rule imposed by occupying military power. this is a very dangerous and, indeed, incendiary notion to import into the politics of a democratic republic. >> sean: make no mistake. this is a preview of coming attractions. listening to the attorney general of united states barr, it sounds pretty clear to me that he has discovered serious corruption, serious abuse of power and his investigation into the origins of the russia witch hunt and i would advise come up pay very close attention to what you just saw because i see every indicatn there that the attorney general fully, completely understands what is a clear and present danger to this country. people that abuse power and people that are corrupt at the highest levels are not held accountable, we don't have equal justice and application of our
10:02 pm
laws, we did have real corruption. there was real abuse of power and it is clear to me, i don't think the attorney general would make those remarks about so-called resistance if he didn't have some pretty daming evidence. if i were one of these deep straight operatives that was actively working against the president of president of the united states or candidate or transition team, and frankly, against the country, i would be very worried tonight. because when the attorney general compares you to the insurgency, i would watch out because probably, i believe something major is about to happen and it won't be good for deep state operatives. everything we have reported on this show, we have been 100% accurate on. while the attorney general finishes investigation, search for the truth, justice, real investigation, yeah, there is still that other b.s. which trial taking place on capitol hill, known as the schiff show. we are now in week two of this idiotic public charade, even
10:03 pm
some democrats are smart enough to see through this and are not pleased with what is taking place. one democratic congressman from new jersey even comparing this bizarre inquiry to what goes on in third world countries, kind of an understatement. let's take a look. >> this has nothing to do with whether you like donald trump or don't want like him or want to seem of a second term or won in election. this has to do with the institution of impeachment itself and not misusing it. there is a reason our founding fathers didn't really -- many of them, did not want to in the constitution and debated and battled back and forth whether it should be in the constitution. it was more like what you would see in europe or more like what you would see an oligarchy is or what we now call third world nations. people make the decisions in america. people vote. we have elections. >> sean: yeah, a lot of people see what this or what it is, three never-ending years of a schiff show.
10:04 pm
anyone with a functioning brain, you should be livid. you should see what they are doing to this country. how do we get to this point? well, most of the congressman's democratic colleagues, you know, to be a democrat or a part of the mob in the media, you have to lose contact with all truth, logic, intellectual sensibility, common sense, and basic fairness. instead, we've noticed something very bizarre has emerged. you've got the democrats, radical as they are, the media mob, they are right in front of our very eyes, they have sort of bifurcated their brains and to be where they are, they are embracing breathtaking hypocrisy. it's like their brains are split, completely in two. like a kind of psychotic rift for many truth or any reality. on the one side, they put blinders on. they will completely ignore all real issues of corruption, of the bidens. oh, a real quid pro quo.
10:05 pm
in other words, zero experience underwriting gets millions of dollars from a corrupt oil company. no background, no experience in ukraine, oil, energy, nothing. why? because his daddy was vice president. the video of joe biden, a real shakedown that he's bragging about with the country of ukraine, takes a billion of your tax dollars to get a prosecutor in ukraine fired who was investigating his zero experience sound for the millions he is being paid for zero experience. you have to, if you are a democrat, if you are part of this insanity in a mob today, you have to forget the state department officials that were gravely concerned about all of this mixed conduct. we are not going to investigate that. forgot all about real evidence. hear no evil, see no evil. no different than when the democrats acted like, oh, they cared about russian interference in our 2016 elections, but they never cared about the hillary clinton bought and paid
10:06 pm
for dirty russian dossier that was unverifiable and used to spy on the presidential candidates. then a transition team, than the president of the united states. so while you are ignoring the biden shakedown quid pro quo on the one side of your bifurcated brain without cause, well, then you accuse the president of an impeachable offense, of a quid pro quo, a bribery, extortion, or whatever word happens to be polling best on any given day, except, unlike the bidens, there is zero evidence of any misconduct. as a matter of fact, the transcript is exculpatory! yet, we have one witness after another, no firsthand knowledge, zero. all we get is, well, i don't know, somebody's cousins uncle grandfathers nephew third cousin once said something. the transcript ever want to talk about aid? no, not once. did the ukrainian president or any other ukrainian official accuse the president? any pressure to do anything?
10:07 pm
zero. did they ever do anything? no, they did not. so when you move further, all the witnesses in this schiff show, they are dragging the country through, all of them, zero knowledge of anything! one, ambassador sondland testified, he's the only one that asked the president, what would you like in exchange for the aid? the president, he said, answered repeatedly, he said, no, i don't want to quid pro quo. i just want to end the corruption. oh, like the ukrainians interfering in the 2016 election, which of course they are ignoring that, too. tomorrow we will hear from former senior national security official tim morrison. behind closed doors, we have the testimony because they like that on a saturday when i didn't think we are paying attention. he was actually on the president's phone call with ukraine, and he testified and will tomorrow. president's call had no connection to his political interest in the upcoming election. he will testify that he had no concerns the president was trying to use ukraine to
10:08 pm
influence the upcoming race. he also said that while he saw no quid pro quo, he did believe the president was rightly worried about corruption in ukraine. this is what democrats want to nullify an election over? there is nothing here. that is the sick part of all of this. not the bidens, not getting the billions. by the prosecutor, you get the billion, you got six hours. yeah, my son has no experience at all. no, i don't want you investigating him anymore. they will rip this country apart, no crime, no quid pro quo, nothing was ever done, the aide went to ukraine and they did nothing! also breaking tonight, congressman lee zeldin, interesting comments he's making, calling for all of the hearings to be postponed because apparently some recent closed-door testimony he believes is a game changer. but of course, the corrupt coward congenital liar, that guy, he actually was caught on
10:09 pm
tape colluding with a russian. he has yet to make that important transcript public. where are all the transcripts? wears a nonwhistle-blower whistle-blower hearsay whistle-blower? what contacted the hearsay whistle-blower have a schiff and schiff's office and what recommendations were made? when is joe biden going to explain using a billion u.s. tax dollars to fire the prosecutor who investigating his zero experience on being paid millions? meanwhile, a senior security council official at the white house, he is suing political for libel, accusing the magazine of lying about his involvement in matters surrounding ukraine. the suit calls out a political party for acting in concert with, yes, the congenital liar adam schiff, who is "a demagogue with an ax to grind against the president." we know that because he's lied to us about trans-russian interference for three years. so that is what this whole trial is about? this is not about truth. this is not about justice. this isn't even about
10:10 pm
fact-finding. just the latest effort by schiff and others and their friends of the mob the media to undo an election they still cannot believe they lost. they have never accepted the results of the 2016 election and ever since, they have been out for revenge. here is one point you must understand. this is bigger and deeper than just donald trump. who they obviously just hate. they also hate week, the people, you know, we smelly walmart shoppers that believe in god and guns and our bibles and religion. irredeemables. they want to send us a much judged, teach us a lesson. take back what they feel is rightfully theirs. and they are leaders them, they think they are smarter, they looked down on the people of this country that voted for donald trump because they know better than we do. the only solace in all of this that you should take tonight is in 351 days, you come away, the
10:11 pm
american people, you have the power to shock the world once again and put them back in their place and put an end to all of this madness. fear not, the author of the best selling book, "witch hunt," fox news analyst gregg jarrett. very interested in the attorney general's comments. do not believe in attorney general's united states of america, as is deemed as bill barr, was make those comments without any real knowledge behind it. >> he has immense knowledge behind it. he has had access, not just to the expected general's reports, he knows exactly what john durham is doing in his investigation. he called it the resistance. in my book, i call it the malignant force. unelected, powerful officials operating in the shadows of secrecy to undermine the president, to pervert the rule of law, and to subvert the constitution. it was going on in the russia witch hunt and now it's going on on steroids in the ukraine witch hunt.
10:12 pm
a chattering class of diplomats trafficking in nothing more than opinion and hearsay in order to invent a pretext to impeach the president. adam schiff is at the helm of it all. >> sean: i was just told by my team, apparently david hale's testimony was just released a short time ago, and he said in a transcript, it was his understanding that pompeo called you to ask you what evidence you had of allegations regarding yovanovitch. how many times do i have to say, we barely mentioned this woman? four times in passing. no, i never got a call from secretary of state pompeo or anybody else. why would they lie about this? you know what? -- >> i don't blame you. you have been smeared. donald trump has been smeared for the better part of three years. >> sean: i know nothing about this moment -- now i know. now we know a lot about her. >> she is an irrelevant,
10:13 pm
immaterial, and any court case, would be in an admissible witness. >> sean: stop there. all of it would be inadmissible. everything is hearsay. >> if mitch mcconnell uses the federal rules of evidence, none of these people that we have heard from him would allowed to testify. >> sean: doesn't the chief justice decide? speak of the federal rules of evidence can be invoked by the e upon a majority vote, actually, it could actually be done by mitch mcconnell himself. they set the rules for the trial, the constitution is silent about what rules they can use. they don't even have to have the chief justice -- >> sean: could achieve justice ever not follow the federal rules of evidence? >> you could buy that a chief justice would always follow the rules. but he would defer to what the senate wants to do at mitch mcconnell has said, we are going to use those rules, that means all of these people will not testify. >> sean: amazing. gregg jarrett, great work as always. by the way, let's keep in mind that in the backdrop of all this
10:14 pm
nonsense surrounding the schiff show, we are still waiting on the results of two critical important investigations out of the doj. first, despite one infuriating delay after another, yes, now we might have a date certain of the horror was a report on fisa abuse, because breaking tonight, senator lindsey graham just announced that the inspector general horowitz will testify before his senate committee about his findings on december 11th. that means we will likely get it the week before. please don't drop it on friday. give it to us on a monday so we can absorb it and then go next week so we have plenty of time to go through it, i hear it's five or 600 pages. a lot of information. meanwhile, as imagined at the top, the attorney general is dropping some pretty big hints his investigation into the origins of the russia witch hunt is not coming up empty. of course, barr has been routinely trashed by the media mob for actually doing his job, searching for real truth. joining us now with reaction, the author of "power grab,"
10:15 pm
fox news contributor jason chaffetz along with fox news contributor kimberley strassel. so you know horowitz, jason, that would tell me, after listening to barr's comments, the announcement by lindsey graham tonight, now we have a date. the first week of december, that is what it sounds like. >> the attorney general has had this reports in september. he's been given updates for a year before that. there is a reason why he has been so active with durham. the fact that lindsey graham has scheduled a date, he will not just drop that report the morning of the hearing, as sometimes it does in the house. i think we'll get a full, complete look at it. it will be nearly 1,000 pages. >> sean: 1,000 pages? >> closer to 1,000 pages. you don't do reports like this to give them a clean bill of health. that is not what is going on here. >> sean: kimberly, my sources have repeatedly said, they will
10:16 pm
be criminal referrals and that they are will also be information and evidence that will shock the conscience and soul of the american people. what are your sources telling you? >> yeah, i have heard the same thing. i think it is going to be a mix. there are going to be some criminal referrals. there is also just going to be a lot of calling out of a very bad behavior and rule breaking internally. people are going to be held to account. i think if you are talking about a report that is that big, it isn't going to focus narrowly on just fisa court abuse. it is going to go more broadly to a lot of different behavior. we know, for instance, the inspector general from some of his prior reports, has been hugely concerned with leaks, for instance. so we'll see how far he gets and then we'll see what john durham, the attorney, then needs to mop up. >> sean: is there any doubt, jason chaffetz, that premeditated fraud on a fisa court after multiple warnings, that it's not verified, we now
10:17 pm
know unverifiable, the basis, the bulk of information in the applications, that that was used to spy -- well, did not carter page's constitutional rights -- by an a candidate, a transition team, and a president. is there any doubt that that has to be the conclusion based on what we already know to be fact? >> you are correct. you talk about this for a long time and you are spot on. we've also had john ratcliffe and trey gowdy, who have been able to look behind the scenes and see the unredacted materials and they have come as close as they could possibly come to saying that. i think what is interesting about this report and where it goes next is that it spreads out into other departments and agencies, perhaps the dni, perhaps into the cia. that is why john brennan and clapper have been so vocal. i think they have a lot to worry about. that is where i think durham has to take over because the inspector general can only go within the department of justice, but durham can go into any of those departments and
10:18 pm
agencies. when the attorney general himself says they used all tools at their disposal, that would include, as i would read it, legal and illegal, to go after this president and try to subvert him. this is going to be one of the biggest tests for the department of justice if they can hold themselves accountable and those within, say, the cia, dni, et cetera. >> sean: again, outsourcing intelligence gathering, that would fit. we'll be watching. thank you both. all right, now, the democratic party has become a dumpster fire off far left socialism, economy killing extremism, on top of the hate and rage trump for anything. for breathing. even barack obama sounding the alarm, warning last week about the dangers of this far left turn. i think there is something deeper at play. i'll expand on the other side of what he said. >> we are pushing the envelope and we are bold in our visions.
10:19 pm
we also have to be rooted in reality. this is still a country that is less revolutionary than it is interested in improvement. they like seeing things improved but the average american doesn't think that we have to completely tear down the system and remake it. >> sean: now we didn't tell you this would happen, that the party would become so radical, o unhinged, that even democratic all-stars like barack obama would probably end up being hated by this radical group of leftists. i think there is something deeper. others monitor observers have said the same thing. those comments by barack obama i guarantee you are planned in advance. we now know david axelrod and a lot of team obama have begun the process now of moving into support, well, deval patrick, former massachusetts governor. time will tell if that is rights.
10:20 pm
the backlash is already started. we have new extreme democrats, look at ilhan omar, congressman omar taking aim at obama, using the hashtag #toofarleft. let that sink in. the most far left radical president in our country's history taking heat for not being radical enough, not being extreme and socialist enough, not passing the new democratic litmus test. the things get even more insane with michael bloomberg. okay, he is now on an apology to her, coming out against stop and frisk, a policy he supported, champions, a cause for 12 years. here with an examination of the outcome of the author of the book "exonerated," fox news contributor dan bongino. former arkansas governor, mike huckabee. governor, i don't think it was an accident with obama said. they realize joe can't make it. elizabeth warren is unelectable.
10:21 pm
pete buttigieg is not going to be the guy played axelrod working with patrick, deval patrick, to me, is the sign, that is where the obama political machine goes. >> i never thought i would say that barack obama is now the voice of reason and moderation in the democratic party, but apparently, he realizes they can't win with the radical message. he at least told his own radical message down and pretended to be something else. but interestingly, now the democrats are going after him like ants on a honey brisket at a church picnic. they are eating him alive. >> sean: ants like a honey brisket at a church picnic. okay, i got it. >> just get the image because that is what is happening. they are not saying, maybe we should listen to this guy. he got elected president twice. oh, no. they are thinking that he is just not radical enough anymore. this is the most radical group of democrats and they are going to elect or nominate the most radical candidate since 1972
10:22 pm
when george mcgovern got absolutely drowned by richard nixon and his reelection. >> sean: dan bongino, we are looking at bloomberg, does the apology to her work? 12 years, he supported the pallet on my policy come all the intervening years he did not feel guilty, and i was getting all teary-eyed, i'm not buying it. >> you shouldn't. it's phony. the guys a complete fake. he was the one out there in his own words billy ring democrats are going on apology tour says he is now initiating his apology tour. this radical far left tilt you addressed in the monologue portion at the end, it's not as if this stuff has not been tried before. the leftists in europe have repealed wealth taxes. yes, wealth taxes that elizabeth warren is proposing now. scandinavian governments that have government-run dictated health care, already starting to move back from this system, including finland's government earlier in the year, the
10:23 pm
government collapsed over this, trying to fight to get out of their system. it's not as if we have not tried for decades government-run public schools and no school choice and have failed our kids. the stuff has already been tried. it's just a regurgitation of old, failed ideas. when barack obama, the most radical, far left president we've ever had, is the voice of sanity on the left, that should kind of tell you something, like, houston, we have a problem when our party if you are a democrat. >> sean: last word come, mike huckabee. >> i just think the democrats are setting out for a landslide reelection by this president. i'm convinced he's going to win. he's going to win bag. much bigger than any of the media will be able to accept. i don't know what they will try to impeach him for for the next four years. good luck with that. >> sean: thank you both. he's back. he's been away. newt gingrich back. he'll weigh in on the democrats, not only their impeachment circus, also the politics of 2020, plus praise andrew's

10:27 pm
author of "trump versus china: facing america's greatest threat," fox news contributor newt gingrich prayed to be a democrat, you have to reject all the fairness that you have provided the minority party and bill clinton'scl attorneys. to be a democrat, you have to care about foreign election interference with russia but now dossier. to be a democrat, you have to ignore the bidens quid pro quo n0 experience hunter paid millions. you have to, if you are democrat, believe anybody that made an accusation against brett kavanaugh but ignore the accusations against lieutenant governor of the commonwealth of virginia. breathtaking hypocrisy, mr. speaker. there is nothing in the transcript that i see where the president did anything wrong. as a matter of fact, i would argue he did the right thing by faithfully executing the laws of this country. >> there is no question that the
10:28 pm
agreement made between president clinton and ukraine requires the president of the united states to cooperate incorruption fighting in ukraine, and in that sense, a lot of what trump was doing actually, ironically, was under the law, exactly with the president should be doing. remember, none of this is real. what's your -- what you are faced with here is the democratic party desperately committed to destroying the president. they don't care what the arguments are. they don't care what the facts are. they havear an absolute deep passionate need -- i would argue, a pathological need, try to destroy the president, even if, in the process, they cripplh themselves. so i think all of us who try to talk about facts misunderstand the conversation. this is a drama. this is a drama in which schiff and pelosi and others are living out their fantasies, largely out of desperation because i think deep down i think trump is going
10:29 pm
to get reelected and they are faced with a nightmare. so none of the stuff is real. people shouldn't judge it as real. it's a theater and it's a theater of heat trump led by schiff and pelosi. >> sean: let's assume, do you assume they will impeach the president, and if they do, what should the senate do? >> i think they may -- i do think the republicans have been effective. just asking the questions directly to the witnesses, did you see a crime? no. did you see an impeachable offense? no. i mean, there's a point, i suspect there are a number of marginal democrats in districts that trump carry that would love for this to go away because they know, after the bill comes up, they have to vote yes or they will be devoured by their own activists, but if they do vote yes, they will be devoured by the pro-trump phase of their district. so they are really, i think, and
10:30 pm
a very, very difficult situati situation. i think that mcconnell has reached a decision, this is the sense i get, that they will go aheadsi and have a trial and of course, as you just saw and announced earlier this evening, with lindsey graham beginning tn call in the inspector general, with other things started to develop, i don't know if i were a democrat, if i would be very happy with the kind of open hearings, the kind of subpoenas, the lindsey graham is likely to have, and then the kind of, frankly, honest debate on the floor of the senate, which i think will be deeply to the disadvantage of joe biden and deeply to the disadvantage of the democratic party. >> sean: what is the impact, assuming he gets acquitted in the senate, pretty short order, federal rules of evidence, no hearsay allowed, we have the. transcript. nobody that i know sees anything wrong with the transcript. i don't think you do either. what impact does all of their actions for the last three
10:31 pm
years, and what we will discover about abuse of power, corruption, systematicus resistance, take down a duly elected president, what impact will this all half by november 2020 and 351 days? >> i think the biggest impact ironically may be the destruction of the american news media. over 50% of the country now sees the news media as deliberately anti-trump, having no interest in the facts, not covering the news, serving as a propaganda. i have never -- the news media today is weaker than it's been in any time in my lifetime. that ultimately is a huge disadvantage for the democrats because the democrats are in position where they need the news media to be believable. excuse me. they are not believable because the fact is that every day, you see "the new york times," "the washington post," msnbc, abc, doing things that only work if it's propaganda.
10:32 pm
>> sean: all right, mr. speaker. i will let you get a drink of water. weke appreciate you being with s as always. also tonight, months after the mysterious death of jeffrey epstein, well, that scandal is now ensnaring those in his office, huge breaking news from ourfi west coast correspondent, and our west coast newsroom, trace gallagher. wow.te what a disaster that interview with prince andrew was. >> yeah, by all accounts. critics say that prince andrew failed to show remorse for theai under age victims, failed to show progress for being friends with jeffrey epstein and gave bizarre answers a about the womn who claims the prince had sex with her three times while she was under age. he claims that she did not meet them. he did say on one of the dates that she claims they had to be 24, he had taken his daughter for pizza. he was asked about his friendship with epstein. listen to this.
10:33 pm
>> do you regret the friendship with epstein? >> no, still not, for the reason being is that the people that i met at the opportunities that i was given to learn, either by him or because of him, were actually very useful. the fact that he has quite obviously conducted himself in a manner unbecoming? yes. we go unbecoming? he was a sex fender. i'm sorry. i am being polite. >> he even spent time with epstein after he spent time in jail. the jericho jail guards could face criminal charges for falsifying prison documents. they were supposed to check on him every 30 minutes but they were reports that one or both fell asleep and doctored the
10:34 pm
logs. both guards were already offered a plea deal but turned them down. the bureau of prisons chief will face questions on capitol hill tomorrow. sean? >> sean: unbecoming. wow. that is sick. trace gallagher, thank you. also tonight, house minority leader kevin mccarthy, he is demanding answers from "abc news." why did they spike that huge report on convicted pedophile in 2016? a discarded interview with one of his victims and who was involved with spiking that story. just when you thought the liberal media could not get more corrupt, we are also learning, get this, nbc news has hired robert mueller's pitbull, that's right, andrew weissmann, as an on-air legal analyst. wow. the guy sidney powell writes about, yeah, withheld of exculpatory evidence, and, yeah, we know his biases.
10:35 pm
here with reaction, fox news contributor, former white house press secretary sarah sanders and award-winning journalist, host of "no agenda" on fox nation, and starting in january, congratulations and welcome, lara logan, will we'll start with you, sarah. they spike to this. you see what they are doing with the rest of the media, and i am like, wow. >> it's unbelievable. i'm glad later mccarthy is taking a big step here. actually calling the media out. this is something the president and others like yourself have been doing for the last few years and s i am glad to see tht the leader of the republican party is stepping it up. this has i think a lot of implication here and there is something that should be looked at. i'm glad he is taking the lead on calling them out and asking them to answer some big questions that seems to be very suspect, to say the least, about the story and why it wasn't written and right never ran. i think it's great that he is asking for these questions to be
10:36 pm
answered. >> sean: when you look at, for example, when i was talking to newt gingrich, cared about trump-russia collusion, there was none, the mueller report -- they ignore the dirty clinton bought and paid for a dossier that was used as the bulk of information to get a fisa warrant. pretty bad stuff, after being warned about it, premeditated to pray that you have this whole story with ukraine. hunter biden, we know, zero experience, his father leveraging a billion dollars. 1 billion tax dollars. you are not going to get the billion unless you fire the prosecutor. you fire him, you get the billion, we have six hours to decide, i guess, so my son can keep making millions with no experience. you tell me, how does that corrupt media survive constantly with this double standard? is on a sickening level. >> well, as a professionalna journalist, sean, i do my job the same way that i have always
10:37 pm
done it. it doesn't't matter who i am dog it for, whether it is 60 minutes or fox nation or the newspaper i started at. having first hand sources and verifying information independently, not allowing anonymity to be a standard, those are the sort of basic of independent, decent journalism. they don't change. they really don't. so i was always confused about the buzzfeed dossier as a professional journalist because from the very beginning, it wasn't firsthand. the sources and it burned. then you had fsb agents who were the actual sources. what's interesting about the whole epstein thing is that, on the one hand, abc says they did not have the goods, they did not have enough verification, which is perfectly valid. when i hear that, it is kind of reasonable preyed on the other hand, you think, you did not hae that verification for the buzzfd dossier, right, and you put people on television and newspapers everywhere today, allowing them to be anonymous. when they are anonymous, the
10:38 pm
audience doesn't have the information and the context they need to figure out what the motivation is of these people for saying what they are saying, or the credibility, right? and so when it becomes the standard, it distorts journals and prayed what i have said from the very beginning, i have a lot of great colleagues all across the media. both at fox news and at cbs news and other places. for all of us, and especially for the people in this country, we all lose in the media doesn't do its job and doesn't do it the way it is supposed to be done. that's the reason i am standing up and taking heat for it and being honest about what i say. it's not because i have suddenly had some kind of transformation and suddenly you have gone from being a liberal journalist to a right-wing journalist. that is what the propagandists want you to believe, that is of the people coming after you want everyone to believe. it has -- it's just not true. >> sean: can the media ever the perfect branding of fake news that
10:39 pm
donald trump, sarah, has tattooed rightly into theirna foreheads? >> not if they continue on the path they are on. so far, they don't seem to learn their lesson.m they continue to run these crazy stories without firsthand knowledge. look atit the impeachment, whole sham we are in the middle of right now. every single one of the witnesses did witness anything. it is mind-blowing to watch ths unfold day after day, you have this entire process full of people who never saw anything, yet we continue to go through the charade so they can find a reason to attack the president. if the media doesn't change and at democrats don't figure out how ridiculous they look, then i think that the president is going to skate into reelection. unfortunately, i would like to see him skate into reelection but then have four years where we are not battling this constant barrage of fake stories and fake scandals so that we can actually get something done and the president can continue to
10:40 pm
accomplish things. i think the contrast could not be more clear between the president, who is actually doing things, and the democrats who are doing nothing but attacking the president and feeding into the fake news narrative. >> sean: the american people see it all. lara logan, welcome, thank you, both. when we come back, i have no idea. lawrence jones, he attends kanye west's services at joels o'steen's church yesterday. got an interview with kanye, somehow my name came up. but i have a message for kanye west. ♪ straight ahead. ♪
10:45 pm
10:46 pm
kanye. some observations about what i see that kanye is doing as extremely powerful and a lot of lessons we all could learn, very important. kanye west, when he steps out, says, he is seeking out god and his life, redemption and his life, wants to be a better person in his life. the best he can be. in contact with the god that built universes, within universes, within universes. that is a powerful message. especially to young people. they look at someone like kanye as a role model, and there are many. they listen to his new album, "jesus is king," boldly sharing his journey and frankly, a message we all need to hear if we all want the desire to be the best people we can be. totally admirable, and bold. i like that part. w but here is what is also oppressive about what kanye is doing. he's putting words into action. look at what he did. he's actually solving some problems. is actually getting results, helping people in need.
10:47 pm
look at this moment. remember, alice marie johnson, had her on the program. remember, she came out of prison right into the arms of her loving family and said, thank you, america, for giving me a second chance, i won't let you down. that would not have happened but for kanye west and kim kardashian. you know't what, they made that happen, they stepped out, they asked president trump for help. the president stepped up and at theor right thing in this case. you know what, she deserved to be let go. also, they followed it up. they pushed for criminal justice reform. they work with jared kushner, they work for the white house, the president of the president jumped on board again. this will help thousands of real people and impact thousands of real lives. meanwhile, what did he get from the rest of hollywood? all these other rich celebrities, they kind of yell endlessly on twitter how much they hate donald trump and his supporters. kanye says, i will work with you. let's get this done, let's get this done, let's help these people. by the way, just days before he
10:48 pm
went to lakewood, kanye actually visited houston prisons. look at the scene. there are people crying. look at how much his appearance meant to inmates, peers, hope, joy, prayer, resilience in the face of tremendous hurdles and transgressions, they are all facing. kanye did not have to visit the forgotten people in prison. but he did. clearly, you look at that tape, that meant a lot to people. what interests me about kanye the most is this thing, is that we have a lot of sheep. there are a lot of people, it's cool to hate drum, hated trump , buy into the lies, by making to the propaganda, the misinformation. he doesn't care what people think. he's out there, will stand boldly and say, i love god. maybe he shops at walmart like me, smelly walmart shopper that clicks to god and our religion. he formed his own thoughts, he follows his own path, he's an
10:49 pm
independent thinker, and unlike all these other celebrities, hollywood bigwigs, they don't seem to give a report other people think of him. that is refreshing. this is an even about his support for president trump or any politician, not about supporting any policy or party. he's fighting for things that are right in his life and right for him. he's making a difference. not worried about conforming to the hysterical media industrial complex and now they want to criticism because he likes god and donald trump. he is not embracing their toxicity, their destructive number they are far left group think that gets nothing done. having the courage to stand up for faith, stand up for the changing the laws, helping innocent people that can't help themselves and giving comfort to those people that are in the worst moments in theire lives. we have way too many sheep, too many people willing to cave to bullying, to lies, smears, respect meant, too scared of not being liked.
10:50 pm
i watched kanye boldly, courageously standing apart, fighting for others, that is inspiring. we spoke about this and much more, i don't know what he said about me coming to our own lawrence jones. he went down to houston yesterday and had a few minutes with kanye. take aad look. ♪ >> i know that god has been calling me for a long time, and the devil has been distracting me for a long time. even for someone who is professing god and saying, this is going to be a gospel album, the devil is going to come and do everything he can to distract people from knowingve how to fuy be in service to the lord. >> how did you feel about the sunday service experience? >> i thought it was amazing. it is so cool to have somebody that you've looked up too musically to come here and to see their life transformed. >> i know tb can make a lot of things look better than what it is sometimes but i think he is
10:51 pm
staying the course and he's walking his walk. >> how are you handling people seeing this evolution of you comingng to christ? you've always talked about christ but in this new way? >> now i got the ultimate security guard. [laughs] that is god. it's to secure my mind and spirit to. the main thing that people try to do isis use comments, naysays to throw you off the course and distraction. we are keeping our eye on christ on all times. it's always in service. thatve removes the fear. >> do you feel liberated? >> absolutely. liberated in service for the name above all names. >> do you believe this new kanye? >> absolutely. >> you have to because i want to transition so i have to believe that he can go through it as one of the first rappers who was actually able to cross over to gospel and actually make it. >> i've been trying to get sean hannity to listen to
10:52 pm
hip-hop forever. now he's listening to kanye's new album and texting me through the service, saying that he's a big supporter of kanye. how does that make you feel that you have people that you have never been able to reach out to, and now, lyrics, same kanye, different lyrics, able to reach him? >> praise god for the anointing and talent and what he has given me since h5, me pursuing the arts, going to art school, even the scholarship he gave mem the art institute of chicago, a phd. all of these things that he gave me, these platforms, the grammys, the visual arts, the space to do live performances, now i can be in service to him. >> sean: joining us now, be 25 special election 2020 investigae reporter lawrence jones. he fascinates me. he got alice mary johnson out. he worked on prison reform.
10:53 pm
he doesn't care what people think. now he is out there with his faith. he doesn't care. i like original. >> i was a fan of kanye before he made this evolution. i always had that kanye always talked about his faith, now he put on a record about it. >> sean: really good, powerful. >> he is so authentic. there are so many people that have been talking about, do they feel like it's real. me and my producer, haley, was there. i have not felt this way since i was a kid. i grew up in a church, my mom was the minister of music as well as the preacher. the feeling that i felt and there was i something that i cannot explain. there were a lot of young people that gave their life to christ because kanye invited them. it wasn't just about kanye. >> sean: we have some business to take care of. i don't like heavy metal music. it's just noise to me. loud, screaming, crazy. >> i don't like it either. >> sean: i never liked rapp whenen you got the bs and that -- i never like that.
10:54 pm
i like this music. >> i don't think -- all rap does not have that. >> sean: rihanna, i think they do a lot of good things. >> there are some good rap out there. this shows you how rap has been used for different tools. >> sean: you know the difference is? uplifting and degrading. that is the difference. >> you don't get this kanye without that story. it's because of that platform that he is able to bring all these young people into the church and get them to christ. >> sean: great job as always. we'll continue right after this. ♪ keeping me from the things i love to do. talk to your doctor, and call 844-214-2424. good morning, mr. sun. good morning, blair.
