7:00 pm
securing our borders, sanctuary cities, free-market economy, capitalism versus socialism, we can't if defense and peace on strength. 152 days, you decide to appear let not your heart be troubled, laura ingraham is up next, laura. >> laura: the former chairman of the chief is now joining the chorus of former military folks going after trump, even raising the issue of the and insurrection act if they can't control what's going on. if it gets violence in the cities and he says it is dangerous and i'm thinking now the military is aligning itself with a group of people, not the peaceful protesters, but the violent ones obviously, who want to abolish the constitution basically and of course, abolish any law enforcement presence at all. that is an interesting pairing. >> sean: i thought in the beginning that might be the path, but i tell you, we see
7:01 pm
these governors and these mayors, they say they don't want any help. they can get the national guard, but they have to ask for it. and for the president than to set up a confrontation between the military and civilians because these mayors and governors refused to do their job, hey, i'm not so sure i support that. posit, thomas, we are not there by any stretch and i'm very hesitant to ever think about. >> laura: no one wants to see people thrown off of their property and no one wants to see injustice because of race. nobody wants to see any of the stuff. it is toxic and it's got to stop. >> sean: they are failing the people in their cities be one who need jobs. >> sean: the civilians and the stores come i mean, they need to do their job. >> laura: other countries have military coups but not the united states of america. i appreciate your sentiment.
7:02 pm
we don't want anything to escalate but president trump is not escalating. just take help and everybody start talking more. hannah d, great show. >> sean: have a great show. >> laura: this is "the ingraham angle." we have our eyes across the united states but of course protest over the killing of george floyd with entering ninth night of found certainty. we will bring you the action as it comes to us plus as a push to defund the police goes mainstream, we will show you one big city is moving to do just that and why it could very well hurt minority communities. believe it or not in the process. and also tonight the president trump's response to the chaos in the streets is to consider all options to keep american citizens safe and to keep the country intact. well, why do so many military leaders as i just mentioned have an issue with it? does it raise constitutional concerns? we will examine it. but first from resistance to revolution, that is the focus of
7:03 pm
tonight's "angle." at today's memorial service for george floyd, it was incredibly emotional. and it was hard for anyone there not to be moved by the words and the loss expressed by his brother, rodney. >> he was a father figure, a big brother but they were throwing at him and the mistakes he made. and watching him and following him come i corrected myself as a teenager growing up. and i learned from him how to be a man. >> laura: his big brother gone. sadly, the floyd families pain and justified anger has been hijacked by a shadow group. but their handiwork is obvious. and they have allies. now it can be seen and the destruction of businesses and the looting of the vicious
7:04 pm
attacks on police officers, coordinated. all of this is being instigated by a group we have been working to expose for months, and he fell. now it is now clear it has become much more sophisticated and much more influential over the past years. enough that the trump administration to take the threat very seriously. but when the president announced he would designate and keep it as a domestic terror organization, the media rushed to defend the anarchist, the ones setting america's cities on fire. >> there are so few members in general that but they have anything significant with a protest is a far right talking point. >> the president has been obsessed with far left protest workgroups rather, including nt for. >> this fake idea of auntie for being an organization that we have to send the united states, that is ridiculous. >> laura: that is ridiculous. that is a very different story
7:05 pm
than what the police chief across the country have been telling us. the reason the left has antifa amnesia at wants ignore anarchy, three years ago back in februar7 "the new york post" detailed some of the first steps in organizing "the resistance to president trump courtesy of barack obama and his wing man eric holder. the post reporting "the little known little-known but well-funded protesting arm had beefed up staff and ramped up recruitment of young, liberal activist. determined to salvage obama's legacy, it drawing battle lines on immigration come obamacare, race relations command climate change. and when you are following that group organizing for action, held thousands of events and train 60,000 activist and what it calls "effective conversation, issue advocacy and voter contact best practices.
7:06 pm
sounds okay, right? the organizational half that sprung out like with a and like-minded groups with logistical road maps and even legitimacy. now just yesterday hillary clinton's former campaign spokesman brian fallon and even john legend tweeted out the message defund the police, which is one of the goals of antifa's campaign of terror. now two days ago, and intel official in the obama administration paid $250,000 to bail out "her best friend who was arrested for allegedly throwing a molotov cocktail into an nypd cop car." remember the radical who died firebombing and a nice facility in tacoma last year? well, somewhere along the way what started off as resistance turkey in a very stern. and revealed today the latest undercover investigation of
7:07 pm
eight anti-for sale in portland noted we ourselves have not confirmed the authenticity of the video but we will let you decide for yourself. >> i've been with and antifa. and if i were to be caught or found out, i am present with him, he could escalate with violence against me. it seems much more structured almost like a company or a business. i feel like there is some type of outside funding influence where resources being used. they are getting this from someone else, someone with more experience. speed went just don't take his word for it. we hear from police chiefs across the country about the efficiency and organization of the looting that is taking place, how it is being done. and the violence, of course directed toward law enforcement officers. here is what nypd john miller
7:08 pm
said monday after last week and devastation. a significant number of people out of the area who have come here as well as a vance property -- preparation with scouts with encrypted communications had resupply routes with gasoline and accelerants as well as rocks and bottles and the raising of bail. it is tactics like these, of course, that have landed on the allies come on the radar of attorney general bill barr and the doj. >> we have evidence nt for an other similar groups and actors of a variety of different political persuasions have been involved in instigating and participating in the violent activity. the rioters use crowbars to dig out the pavers at lafayette park and use them as projectiles thrown at secret service and other federal agents.
7:09 pm
>> laura: antifa may claim to be antifascist but what i call it is violence and terror to achieve your political goals which is the utter destruction of america as we know it. now the fact he is going back to genesis in 1930s the project of the communist international, well, they have never been about combating fascism. in 1963, the fascism party leader johnson told congress that the real goal was the subversion and subsequent overthrow of the united states. in decades later, we see that soviet dream play out. what is really frightening though one party seems perfectly fine with that: the name of taking down president trump in the fall. and that is the "angle." sara carter host of the "sara carter show podcast" and retired special agent who spent decades investigating anarchist
7:10 pm
groups and last but not least harmeet dhillon with civil american liberty. sarah, let's start with you. do you think there will be more concerned, even if they don't want to say it is this group which i don't know why they don't want to say it, but even if they don't want to say this group, you would think there would be more concerned on the left given how they are marring some of the peaceful protest that i think would probably go off without a hitch were it not for this very, very dangerous element. >> well, you are absolutely right, laura. what has been happening for decades is fermenting inside the universities and colleges where our young, young people have been recruited basically by professors and teachers leftist, communist that believe in these types of acts. they basically hijacked a crisis and you know peaceful protest, they hijacked these peaceful protest, and then they ferment. to kind of ferment uncivil rest
7:11 pm
to spread across the united states. what makes it different now than in the past, social media tools. they are able to organize on telegram, chat rooms. i know this is happening and i talked to law enforcement officials about this where they are able to organize. this is what william barr is looking at. who is telling them where to go, where to meet and in a sense, they are disparate groups but organized by social media. this is a big concern and the big difference what we have seen in the past. >> laura: james, all your experience investigating anarchist groups, water using the major differences today with how they are operating and how they are hiding and concealing themselves in this overall political movement and protest movement? >> thanks, laura, the biggest thing i noticed is they are acting the same way in many ways they did many years ago when i was looking at them. and it just so happened i was
7:12 pm
working against antifa and the neo-nazis and the kkk at the same time. they were in two different cities in the midwest. i don't want to say where because the fbi is still looking at these groups, but you had one hand much different tactics then you had with nt 4.0. for example the neo-nazi groups tend to be more open and we knew they were and you could talk on -- talk to them and antifa te anarchist groups were the exacte and difficult to find. if you went and knocked on the door and a leader and tried to get into the group, they would put you aside and tell you to go find your own group. you know, establish yourself as a leader and have your own group. >> laura: harmeet, to date you filed the first ever lawsuit against antifa on behalf of journalist and you know who was brutally beaten by members of the group. the complaint reads "the fellow antifa members and supporters and allies physically assaulted
7:13 pm
him and protests that he was covering with photo equipment publicized his family home and mother's business tried to force entry and they stopped him and his personal life by attacking and stealing his phone while at the gym, harmeet it sounds horrific and he was attacked but the authorities did nothing. have those attacks stopped on and he? >> that is right to an ongoing basis he continues to be stocked and reported to the portland authorities and they continue to do nothing. by the way, that includes the united states attorney who i spoke to at the beginning of the process. we waited several months and this is a job for law enforcement because as the other guests have pointed out, law enforcement has the tools to go answer veil and get warrants and all of that. it should have been law enforcement doing this action, not me but because they refuse to do that, we cannot let
7:14 pm
andy live under these threats and so we take action and i hope you get more law enforcement traction to look at this. it is not just andy. they attack whole journalist who dared to attack them and make these so-called journalist back off. and then doubling down our journalists who at the beginning of your segment to join in and are effectively spokesperson for antifa because of their liberal viewpoints. they protect them and make excuses for them and demonize anti-and other journalist to criticize them. and then they use those tactics to make andy the enemy. andy is very brave and i'm proud to represent him, but this is on the app that is criminalized by these people. >> laura: andrew mccabe on another note, former fbi director, he spoke out today about the group antifa, and he essentially is downplaying it. i think we have a sound bite.
7:15 pm
>> i can tell you with a true terrorist group looks like an ant heap is not that group. the president doesn't ever let the facts get in the way of the political narratives. and i think what is constantly bringing up nt 4.0. >> laura: he's a man of great credibility come of course. with his history. >> sean: this coming from a man who lied multiple times to the inspector general, that was shunned, fired from the fbi, that continues to lie here that has been in a battle with rod rosenstein and everybody else. look, he shouldn't be listened to. this is obviously a man against donald trump. when i was listening to harmeet and thinking about the police and thinking about these groups like blm, "black lives matter" and antifa to defund the police. when you see what happens in portland. when you see the police just walk away, walk away from people
7:16 pm
being attacked by antifa, we have to ask ourselves, we are in the battle for the soul of our country right now. they are really targeting the very essence of what we are, our constitution, our belief in capitalism and democracy. are we just going to let this happen? i think harmeet is doing the best thing she can which is fighting for andy ngo and i think the rest of us have to keep our eyes wide open and figure out what is going on here. parents come if your children are involved in this, you have to consider what other parents have done, and that is if your kid causes violence, turned the man, do something, speak out and do this job before we lose control of our country and we lose control of our children to. >> laura: there is one more thing i want to play. i want to play this for james and i want a response from the other side appear there have been various protesters and academics who have completed or capitalism now against the heart of the economic system with
7:17 pm
white supremacy. part of kind of the blurring of the lines here. let's watch. >> it took so much violence to even bring this to white supremacy and capitalism across the country. >> my black politician, middle-class, come to accommodated to the economist economy. >> the history of this nation is built on four legs which is white supremacy. >> patriarchy, capitalism. >> laura: so james, that is the trifecta right there and you see where this is going. this is national property ownership, kicking people out of their land. i don't know. what is it? i don't know what it is but how important is that to recognize? >> i think you hit it on your intro. this is like that '30s and they are anticapitalist, anti-corporation, anti-status quo. i'm not sure they know what they want.
7:18 pm
they know what they don't want and it's those three things. and i think right now they put these three things together. >> laura: the occupy wall street movement and i'm not a big fan of the wt oh, but those groups to say the least he operated, sara, james, harmeet great to see you tonight and thank you for your contributions with this discussion. and now an update on a second one that we brought you last night. i expressed concerns new orleans saints quarterback drew brees subjected to withering criticism for answering a question about what nfl protest might look like next season. now, he said the flag shouldn't be disrespected and that he thinks his grandfathers as pioneers when he hears the national anthem. we noted that he hit has deep christian faith and everyone should be treated equally and with respect and we noted that
7:19 pm
his generous contribution to charity. now my dear friend of drew brees led to online course of people comparing those comments to previous comments i made to lebron james. now, at the time, james had said that trump "really doesn't give a f "about the people. without dwelling on the nuance between the two instances let me be clear about what i believe. we are all children of god. regardless of our racial or political differences and therefore, must be treated equally. every american, every american. it has a god-given right to speak his or her own mind on any issue. i think in order to heal and shed light on justices, our country needs more dialogue, not less. we need more respect, not retribution. emotions are hot right now. and unfortunately, in times like these, we often find ourselves and i know it's easy to talk
7:20 pm
past each other, but right now, americans, most of them are looking for reconciliation. that means politicians, police men even cultural figures all working together, all of them. now, we are all human beings. and for a short period of time, you may think about it but this is the moment when we should be listening and learning. all of us. and coming up, how did defunding the police move so quickly from a wish list to a talking point? which city is already considering this idea in the name of woke notes? the answer and just moments. i got an oriole here.

7:25 pm
7:26 pm
the police, false data, joining me now, a science professor at state university and author of hate crime hoax and also with me, senior fellow of the institute come with the war on callouts. professor riley, what is in your view the most egregious lie undergirding the dismantle or defund of the police narrative? >> welcome i think much of the e all the way will say one is completely false, but i am a pro-black man and i think we oppose police brutality but we have seen george floyd with 90% of americans want charges but the narrative that backs defunding the police is based on nonreal data. in last year, the total number
7:27 pm
of the armed african-americans nationwide were killed by the police was 15. that is according to "the washington post" police shooting database, the gold standard here and i will note they had that number as nine until two days ago. i'm not sure. but that is extremely typical, by the way. when i prepared my book, "tabo "taboo:10 facts you can't talk about" in 2015 that entire year there were only 1250 police killings nationally out of 330 plus million people and only 258 of these were african-american at all and once again the total number of unarmed black men killed specifically by white officers was under 20, 17. so i think the most egregious element of this, when you hear, the total number last year. >> laura: heather, the argument in response to that that i've heard is
7:28 pm
proportionately the number of unarmed white people kill versus unarmed black people killed, there is still more black people killed by the police. that is what they say when they say what about "the washington post"? what is your response? >> the unarmed category we are talking exclusively about unarmed category is ludicrous in "the washington post" database. this is how you get uncounted by unarmed by "the washington pos "the washington post." a shooting and speeding away from an unlawful car stop and having a loaded semiautomatic pistol in the car with you. you are an unarmed victim at that point. so many of these black victims as well as white victims were violently resisting arrest and by all appearances, out to kill the cop. the difference is not that gre
7:29 pm
great. as this professor rightly notes, with "the washington post" has been furiously re-categorizing unarmed people and jumping in the unarmed category to try to get to notice them. but the difference is not that great. when you look at the overall category, you have about a quarter of all police shooting victims being black and that is less than predicted by the black proportion in this country. >> laura: hold on, heather. i want to look at the actual figures because here are the latest stats on the crime in the united states. 2018, there were over 4.1 million incidents i in the country involving black-and-white americans. of those about 607,000 incidents were interracial, nearly 60,000 of those were white on black violence, just under 10%. on the other hand 547,000 were incidents on black on white
7:30 pm
violent or 90%. will fred, how can this discuss these issues because even though the official database, it's never part of the conversation. >> a serious discussion that simply has to be based on reality. people with voices to represent that reality need to do so. as you said, interracial crime overall among violent crime was a very small percentage. 15% of crime against whites as of last year committed by blacks, african-americans make up 13% of the population. whites commit, did better committing 11% of crime against blacks, but definitely the reality that interracial crime is primarily black on white is almost never discussed. again, if you look at the actual facts, whether the total number of unarmed african-americans
7:31 pm
shot with the total number of unarmed persons being under 50, or interracial crime and the majority of black on white, any of these arguments completely deflate this "black lives matter" that there is a race war going on in the usa and doing insane things like dismantle major city police forces. you would have the wild west and many of our cities. >> >> laura: heather, does biden and the democrats understd how this posture of seeming to side with violent groups by kind of discounting them? and how the majority of americans think? >> we are burning up this
7:32 pm
country, we are burning up civilization. we have the worst passion for destruction and mayhem, sadism at large. and pretty much has an obligation to protect persons, to protect property and failing tto the extent biden cannot summit the moral courage to unequivocally condemn this. without saying he understands it and without linking to white supremacy, he will torpedo himself. he will also torpedo himself with law-abiding blacks, thousands of them in inner-city neighborhoods who -- i've never been to a and inner city like harlem or southern brooklyn or southside chicago where i don't hear these law-abiding good people saying, we want more cops. we want the dealers off of the street. speed when we heard the same thing in chicago when we did our town hall there on crime and inner city and difficulties
7:33 pm
there. i don't think there was an exception of the folks that we talk to and interviewed who didn't say, we need more help here. and nobody wants police brutality, but they need more protection. the good people don't win out. that seems simplistic, but i think we are hurting the most vulnerable americans with really you're responsible rhetoric but i know people don't like president trump. but you will hurt the people that need the help most. professor riley, heather, both of you, thank you tonight. and as the media screams out, have a constitutional crisis and they are ignoring and much more frightening pushed by military leaders to take over civilian leadership? what does that mean? constitutional scholar john eastman explains in just moments
7:34 pm
daily routines change. but the land stays the same. there's ground to cover and a herd to feed. so run with us on a john deere gator. because being linked to the land means the work never stops. nothing runs like a deer.
7:35 pm
7:36 pm
7:37 pm
7:38 pm
now according to the bright lights and the media of the countries in the midst of the 35th constitutional crisis worries at the 40th? i have lost track. >> look, we are dealing with a lawless president. he is unraveling and impulsive. he doesn't respect the constitution. speak with the serpent wrapped around the legs of the constitutional -- threatens to swallow it whole. our democracy stands on a nice edge. >> laura: now, you think those levers of democracy would at least have a few questions as to what looks like a coordinated effort by former and even president military leaders to publicly undercut the president of the united states. well, yesterday jim maddox he lashed out at trump saying at one point, we can unite without him only by adopting a new path. will we can be a country admired? then current defense secretary
7:39 pm
mark esther disagreed with the commander-in-chief over using the military to help quell riots. joining me now john eastman, the senior fellow constitutional scholar, john, now we have the former chairman of the joint chiefs under obama, mark dempsey coming out. it is all like, talk about coordinated, coming out saying trump is dangerous and even consider being this direction act and using troops if they can't control the cities. what is this all about? and is this, what my colleague tucker carlson said earlier today, tantamount to a slow rolling like military perhaps coo? >> well, so my main, one of the things that is absolutely clear, our constitution makes the president commander in chief of their own forces which means we have civilian leadership over the military in order to prevent a military coup. and that is just unquestioned
7:40 pm
throughout our history. what general maddox seems to be doing here because he didn't just exercise his places of a retired general with all of the clout, but he encouraged active-duty troops to disobey an order from the commander in chief if they got it. and the president's authority is clear. it comes from article four of the constitution. when we have an invasion or insurrection that he can call up the military. the insurrection piece is supposed to be based on application of the state legislature or the governor. but it is not limited to that in practice. lyndon johnson, for example, called up military troops to deal with a 1968 democratic convention riots. eisenhower called up troops to help desegregate little rock, arkansas, against the governors wish down there. the other thing is you and i think this ends important.
7:41 pm
the title x section 243 allows the president to call up the armed forces to deal with domestic violence which is what we have here. when the constituted authorities out the state are unable or fail or refuse to protect the rights, privileges and immunities of the citizens of that state. that is exactly what is going on. the police sit at a late buy by the orders of elected officials not to do anything to protect property and livelihoods from these looters. >> laura: practically speaking and by the way, leon panetta, we don't have to play but leon panetta former secretary of defense under obama, same pattern here, bush, kind of the old mainstream, he basically said the same thing. so john, let's talk about this practically. so apparently the president of the united states should just standby if blue state governors decide, will, if the city has to
7:42 pm
burn to help us convince people we have to get rid of trump, then, we've tried our best and we cannot do much more. what is the practical outcome of that as losing america? >> and that is why he floated the use of the insurrection act. by the way, this is not a constitutional violation that has been used dozens of times in the past and circumstances very similar to what we have here, in the chicago rights in '68 that lyndon johnson used it for or los angeles riots after rodney king were much more compliant geographically than what we see going on here. it didn't appear to have that kind of coordinated effort like we see with -- all of a sudden on street corners near protests, pallets of bricks and cement showing up that can be used to inflame. >> laura: people have to die. how many have to die? in order to --
7:43 pm
>> the statutory authority is clear. this is the president's call and to float this across the bow of these governors that are letting this happen, i don't think there was anything appropriate. he needed to do something. >> laura: he needed to at least try to wake them up because i think the people of the states are crying out for help. every poll shows people are desperately worried about this. sean, thank you so much. great to see you. >> thank you, laura. >> laura: speaking of acting on from a former obama mike obama advice or calling for the trump administration officials to defy the president. >> there are wires being trip to get to the absence of american democracy and that is bringing people to speak out. i would like to see former officials, even some current officials who recognize they don't need to go along with unlawful work awakens the constitution. >> laura: what a current trump officials think of this? homeland security,
7:44 pm
ken cuccinelli, what do you make of this confluence? it looks like lou's coordination. a former and current military official. and now a former obama national security official undermining the president and calling for those to disobey orders. >> well, you know, you know who's on the site of the writers. you've been talking about them. you know who is on the side of protecting the people and that is the president of the united states. we heard it perfectly a simple explanation why his legal authority to do that with all of us serving in his administration is proud to do that. i have law enforcement background, as you know, department of homeland security is more officers and any other agency in america. we serve the streets and the president's instructions and guess what, where that has happened, the police have gone up in violence has gone down. where that hasn't happened, the violence remains. you can look around the country and see it. you can even see it change in
7:45 pm
minneapolis where they refused originally when the violence erupted after the george floyd murder to be aggressive in the police response. the murder of george floyd is no excuse for the looting and the burning of everyone else my innocent people's property. >> laura: can, they expect about 1 million people to converge out in washington, d.c., over the weekend to be on the streets protesting. many of them peacefully, but that certainly gives an opportunity to the people that don't want to be peaceful and maybe want to burn or force a confrontation. how are you preparing for that? >> so in the same way i just described. we have plenty of federal resources available to support both washington police, the national guard is already out. the secret service, of course defends the core of washington around the white house. we also have customs border
7:46 pm
protection. i.c.e. agents. >> laura: but are you worried, ken? ken come are you worried these former well respected military leaders are essentially signaling to active-duty troops to not listen to instruction of the president of the united states? >> i am not worried at all. i lose respect for each of them when they take this approach, but i absolutely am not worried at all. the troops serving under this president, the law enforcement serving under this president knows the legal authority to do everything he has asked and ordered us to do. every single thing. and you have had some legal scholars on already before me who cited quite cynically, this is very straightforward. he is not the first president to consider these options. he has already preplaced troops if needed because his first
7:47 pm
priority is keeping americans in america safe, whether these old generals like it or not. >> laura: they never much liked him. america first thing, they didn't like that. they didn't like closing the aborted thing. they didn't like trump from the beginning, and they didn't want to be successful but the whole points of sabotage in place all along. ken great to see you and we wish you the best of luck. and who were the brunt of the chaos that has blanketed the streets of the u.s. now? minority business owners, that's who. horace cooper with the nihilism that infiltrated the latest movement

7:50 pm
7:51 pm
♪ >> laura: "black lives matter" with across the country demanding the justice of the killing of george floyd. but what about the livelihood of black business owners? right now they are bearing the brunt of all the rioting. from philadelphia to the bronx, minneapolis, chicago, and delay. and over and over again we see minority owned businesses looted, vandalized or just burnt to the ground so why is this happening? joining me now horace cooper to cochair project 21 author of "how trump is making black america great again" and also, a commentator and author of the
7:52 pm
brand-new book "united states of socialism." horace, why do we see this happen city after city? >> it is because democrats cannot learn any new tricks. from the 19th century, 21st century, there has always been efforts on their part to intimidate black americans, the kind of people that want to work, the kind of people that want to own their own businesses, the kind of people that want to succeed. the irony is, it is really clever this time because the effort to set blacks back is being done in the name of saving blacks. i'm asking black america, white america, brown america, wake up. look and see what they are doing. don't let it happen again. two sentries of this was enough. >> laura: systemic great racism is blamed for most of this and from cities that have n
7:53 pm
run by liberals and in many cases minority governments for year after year. you pointed out before in baltimore what happened under their leadership but this isn't solving itself. and al sharpton today at the funeral for george floyd said this. >> george floyd's story has been distorting black folks. what happened to floyd happens every day in this country. it is time for us to stand up in george's name and say "get your knee off of our necks." this happens every day. small children hearing that. >> this is the heart of the matter. what you have is an incident, and in justice that the country could and would unify around. and then you have attached to it
7:54 pm
