fox news at night... >> trace: good evening and it's 11:00 pm on the east coast

and 8:00 in los angeles and this is america's late news fox news at night. >> are you competent president biden has what it takes to win in november? >> as i said before, i'm with joe. >> as i said before, i'm with joe. >> trace: appears to be open for dropping biden and writing ... and nancy pulled lucy singing a similar tune only louder. >> all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short. >> he has said firmly this week he is going to run. >> i want him to do whatever he wants to do enough the way it is

>> reporter: house majority leader say he's dead set on biden. >> ice apart -- support democratic joe biden on the ticket and my position has not changed. >> biden on the ticket? >> same answer. >> trace: that was monday and today is tuesday but will he be changing his mind? >> to have a discussion for the representatives as of the best possible path forward. >> trace: we began with the first democratic senator asking biden to drop out of the race for the good of the country and actually it is live with more on a very big change in the democrats message. >> reporter: what a week calling on him to drop out of the presidential race and some of the most powerful democrats open to leaving biden off the

ticket and senate majority leader, nancy pelosi and house minority leader jeffries raised eyebrows with reports and comments regarding candidacy and axial's reporting chuck schumer open to promote a different candidate and has been listening to donor suggestions on a path forward however chuck schumer maintains his support for president biden saying "as i had made clear repeatedly and in public and private, i support president biden and remain committed to make sure donald trump is competed -- defeated and the president would have to come to his own decisions and jeffries has always publicly supported his event and changes tune sidestepping the question about when we approached biden about dropping out and take a look at this. >> reporter: democrats come out against the president, are you announcing to step down?

>> we owe it to ourselves to have a discussion to people that we represent as to the best possible path forward with winning the house of representatives. >> reporter: the only first democratic senator calling on president biden to exit the race for the good of the country. back to you. >> trace: maga ally for us and thank you. and a wave of anti- wide and momentum growing in key democratic circles including some very famous democratic circles and the senior national correspondent live with that side of the story. >> good to be with you and where to begin as we know in democratic circles, lot of money flows from hollywood right into campaign so when you lost them, but clock is ticking and tonight, george clooney is

saying it is time for biden to hang it up, i love joe biden but we need a new nominee. michael douglas concurs saying clooney ditching biden is valid at this point and amazingly clooney took it a step farther calling out the democrat party leadership for gas lighting the american people about biden following the disastrous debate performance quote was he tired? cold? party leaders need to stop telling us that 51 million people did not say what we just saw and also terrified by the prospect of a second trumped term that we have opted to ignore any warning sign and to make matters worst, the call is coming from inside the house with the obama boys who obviously part of the popular hot save them -- appalled save america podcasts and even administration couples who

served under him calling for biden ousted on the ticket. >> this is all a matter of risk assessment and risk associated with everything but question of the risk of the status quo approaches the risk of trying something else and i think we've reached the point where many have come to the conclusion. >> not surprising to anyone who was at the fundraiser and i was there and clooney was right. >> as they say, doesn't look too good. >> trace: thank you and that spring and former rnc press secretary along with former white house deputy of strategic communications director and founder and ceo, thank you both for coming on. senate majority and former house speaker and senate minority all appear to be open to biden being off the ticket and writes the

following that senate majority leader chuck schumer privately told donors he's open to a democratic presidential ticket that is not led by president biden and said insistent that he his -- he is for joe and private but changing his tune and what you think? >> it's interesting they were all fine with basement joe biden when he was politically productive for them and now they see that it's perilous for them, their dropping him like a bad habit and you know who's suffering for this is not just our country but democratic voters and they should not let their party elders and i mean elders and their allies get away with this and it makes them come crawling back to them and earn their respect. >> trace: interesting because now you have the old obama days talking about john lovett and saying maybe it's a time to go and here's a sample from john lovett.

>> political pressure might get adler to go to the microphone to unsliced the bagel but it does not change what's actually happening on the ground which is driving these concerns and is coming from voters. >> trace: now it is building back again. america seeing biden's true arrogance right now and he's not in it for the american people before himself's which could not be a starker contrast to president trump quite frankly putting his entire life on the line in order to save america and he said it from the beginning but they are not after you but they are after me and i'm just in the way so you have to ask yourself, wire the democrats all of a sudden ringing the alarm bells and has been this way for four years and week on the campaign trail in the basement strategy and now they have distraction strategy and trying to point everyone except for joe biden policies

but at the end of the day, american people going to vote on that whether or not you can keep the eyes open during the nato summit. >> trace: here is why, he was always doing his homework. >> in the electoral college, would not be particularly close it would be substantial well over 300 electric boats. >> trace: 300 is landside territory. >> that's what democrats are paying attention to that donald trump was winning in the polls before joe biden stepped on the debate stage and they already knew they were on on the terrain here just open the floodgates to know what they knew to be the truth all along and the differences there are allies in the media who stopped covering for them who said they need to

get someone else and but the policies have always been that so whoever they anoint too than on the ballot if it's not joe biden that they all subscribe to these policies which are still the problem so the polls should not change. >> trace: 20 seconds for you roma to wrap this up. >> trace: cassie mentioned some great numbers there and we need to focus on 75 percent of american voters do not want to see biden as a democrat on the ticket and he is down seven points in pennsylvania which is a key swing state for him and one he was doing very well in cf to ask yourself what has changed? spotlight on joe biden and his weak list -- weakness on full display. >> trace: thank you both. breaking tonight, looks like we're seeing a pattern here days after a philadelphia of radio hosts say the biden administration sent prescript or questions and a radio host in

milwaukee says the same thing happened to him. christina coleman is live with new information. >> reporter: wisconsin radio josé biden scene gave him questions to ask the president before their interview and a philadelphia radio host said the same thing and both radio host essentially given the same questions to ask the president which include questions about his accomplishments and what's at stake in the election. >> we're those questions given to you by the white house or did you have to submit questions ahead of this interview? >> the questions were sent to me for approval and i approve them. >> white house sent the questions to you ahead of the interview? >> yes. >> reporter: and a statement to fox news digital regarding the interview with the philadelphia radio show host said biden campaign spokesperson say these questions were relevant to news of the day and the president asked about his

debate performance as well as what he delivered for black americans, we do not condition interviews on acceptance of these questions and always free to answer the questions they think will best inform their listeners but some might say it seems like the biden campaign trying to prevent the 81-year-old president from struggling to answering questions. >> trace: thank you. [ ♪♪ ] >> trace: the common sense department has a warning that within days the media currently bashing biden will build him back better and last week he was feeble and this wiki is fine and next week he will be in phoenix. and march, new york times read a piece that said what seems like age might instead be style and went on to compare biden to beethoven saying at the end of their careers quoting sometimes produce a secession of masterpieces to transcend

earlier work though it might be tough to compare beethoven's fifth to biden's debate the times argues politics is not an art but a craft and common since argues biden's craft has cratered an audience -- honest media would concur but instead they conduct -- concoct fault narratives and off tv he says biden is done but if the media fails to lift biden across the finish line basically lift the next person in line. here is cut constant, no longer be it annoying but endearing and the words will not be incoherent ramblings but brilliant musings and yes common sense has come with a warning that this time next week when you hear the media use maestro tech don't think beethoven but think biden. let's bring in the held national politics reported juliet

manchester and contributor writer stephanie hamel and thank you both for coming on and to you for stephanie, now the media publicly coming back behind joe biden but you can see stuff like that in private as george said he is done and toast. >> the coverage on this since the debate has been incredible and i can't stop watching liberal mainstream media news if you will really everything happening the past few days has almost been like the nail on the coffin for biden's reelection campaign politically speaking. he has more enemies than people who were on his side then he has friends and we can't ignore the obvious that this is a lot of stuff we have been talking about for a long time even before 2020 and a lot of these people have egg on their face the same people anything they saw biden that did not make him look good

was a cheap fake but we can't deny what we saw on debate night or what was on the abc interview or the random interviews where they sent the questions and. >> trace: in the meantime, get to the media coalescing but tinseltown is fading and george clooney and his op-ed said the following, let's hear from a harris and gretchen whitmer and more and let's agree that candidates not attack one another but in the short time we have it will make this country soar than we can go into the democratic convention next month and figure it all out and a tossup here. >> yes bloc i think this is bigger than tinseltown or hollywood with clooney writing this op-ed roughly a month after he held and helped raise $30 million for joe biden in los angeles, he is essentially putting out a signal to other donors which will be detrimental for joe biden as we're talking a

lot about the coverage of this on capitol hill and what our house and senate democrats doing but that is very important that the donor class is another portion of this because once that money starts drying up, will be great for the biden campaign and it comes as other biden donors or former biden donors is threatening to withhold funds from the democratic party if they don't choose another nominee. >> trace: we have heard so much from late-night comedians because stephen colbert and kimmel and the rest or so behind joe biden now and stephen colbert starting to go off the reins a little bit. >> address concerns about his health stating he was fine but then adding it's just my brain. good. it's just his brain and that sound is just my sphincter clenching so tight i think i just made a diamond.

>> trace: is a damaging stephanie? >> of course. it so bad even that sycophants who love and adore him shielding him for this long having to admit the obvious but i have to say it's almost like this debate night has finally united the country and making comedy funny again if they're willing to attack their own side. >> trace: who thought of comedy being funny again. did it interview with lester holt on nbc next week and has to be a good one and you think it needs to be good. >> i would consider lester holt to be on the same caliber as a george stephanopoulos and him calling into morning joe probably a more friendly environment for joe biden and a friendlier audience however, i think lester holds audience not only towards msnbc core audience but it will be broader and that will be a test for biden.

>> trace: thank you both. >> a lot of people expressing their opinion and i respect people actively participating in our democracy but i don't have any comment as it relates to george who we admire and respect. >> trace: ec that tag? less a sacramento and surprise gavin newsom in california today and he could not come and then george clooney to drop out but wanted to talk about wildfires burning in the golden state for weeks and while the fires burn of course the newsom campaign in various battleground states and reportedly campaigning for biden. let's bring in both californian associates and thank you both for coming on and roxanne, why is gavin newsom here? doesn't he have more important things to do then worry about estate falling down? >> i imagine he had to be dragged back.

>> trace: the getty jet was behind him. >> he does everything with an eye to national media and does not want them to say this governor was in town when bad things are happening and things are happening. >> trace: this headline bullet point views because harris for some reason she gets to the top of the ticket that the opposition research on our will be brutal and here we go, soft on crime. >> she was a district attorney in san francisco but i call her the go of the progressive district attorneys who coddle criminals because under her watch, a massive crime spike in san francisco even when crime was plateauing in california and going down nationally so her record is extreme is in california and people know her as vice president and no she's incoherent and at least biden has a medical condition but she is naturally incoherent words

solid and incompetent and she was made the borders are and look at what happened but what people are missing is her history in california talking about far left extremist policies of legalizing prostitution and mentioned that on the campaign trail just this week with far left extremism way out of step. >> trace: weaponizing or office against political opponents. >> instead of going after criminals, she went after republicans and businesses and anyone who opposed the democratic agenda by going and filing lawsuits trying to criminalize their free speech rights. she tried to out donors if a group came a long advocating for different policies she said i want to know who is funding you entered not do this to any left-wing groups and left crisis pregnancy centers trying to infringe upon religious rights

and finally invented the bad practice of labeling ballot measures inappropriately and buy a sleaze on the ballot. >> trace: the headline quoting and are we knot allowed to ask questions about her qualifications? she could be leader of the free world and not allowed to bring that up? >> we can bring that up but the only protection melon and gives you if you think the right way but she is dumb or high and sheila jackson dumb as dirt. maxine waters. plenty of black women on the democrat side who have not been intellectual heavyweights and no one has bothered them. come harris is a disaster and would be really lucky not to have that. >> trace: 20 seconds as on 'the view' today, joy behar set

her laugh and, is because we don't like funny women. >> we don't like funny women. >> trace: i like funny women might she laughs and cackles because she has nothing to say and she is in way over her head and it's not just silk at an incompetent president but extremists when you look at our california record. >> trace: coming up, when did reporting crime to a police public nuisance? popular retail chain being threatened with fines to making too many calls the police about retail theft. in 'the nightcap' coming up, who should be keynote speaker? a big gop name that could use some attention? let us know and we will read your responses coming up in 'th d we're coming right back . and see why pods has been trusted with over 6 million moves. but don't wait, use promo code big25 to save.

>> trace: we have some crazy breaking news from right here in california amid the crime crisis, city attorney of socrates meant to warn local target retail store it's facing public nuisance charge and finds if it doesn't stop calling police after the store gets ripped off by shoplifters. christina coleman with the details on this kind of insane. >> insane indeed as the city attorney's office worn to store it could face a public nuisance charge for calling the police over and over report on the themes repeatedly stealing from the property and according to the sacramento newspaper and local cvs reports the city's office drafted a letter with the warning but never scented but either way the mention of this concerning to local lawmakers who say the state is too soft on crime and retail crime remains a

huge problem especially in the bay area essence january, organized crime retold task force recalled 216,000 stolen goods valued at $5.7 million and take a look at this disturbing surveillance video just from last friday between eight-a hundred thieves ransacked in oakland gas station during a big flash mob robbery costing hundred thousand dollars in damages what the store owner estimates after seeing his business ripped apart in the robbery went on for 40 minutes dramatizing a 21-year-old employee at the store on the chaos. >> this window was just replaced and you see the shattered glass and this is the way they entered and they stole everything and they took all the shelves and dropped them on the floor and broke everything. >> vast store owner fears his business could be targeted again and those guys are moving slow

with no rush. >> trace: why would you rush if you know no one is coming to get you? thank you christina. let's bring a resident of the land park neighborhood and james gallagher, thank you for coming on and stephanie, this is about the target think so target being threatened by the city that they will find and charge them with public nuisance because they're calling the cops and criminal defense attorney says, now the government seeks to silence those retailers and intern manufacturers lower crime rates and no citizen should ever be penalized for lawfully calling government for protection but they are quit calling the cops because the crime rate will go up and we will look bad stephanie. >> does not sound ridiculous? we as the community never want

our city or any other entity telling people not to report crime you know sacramento police department is understaffed but we were all crime to be reported so we can get the accurate count so police scanner where crimes are taking place to allocate resources accordingly. >> trace: assemblyman gallagher, what you say about this? rest of the company watching this thinking what is going on in california. >> it's really sad as here in california we see crime increase exponentially in every city and this is not just in sacramento or oakland but every city in california because of that policy and gavin newsom out there lying saying crime is slowing down but he just got fact checked on the earlier today when the stats came out on oakland but it's also because people don't feel inclined to report crime because they know

they won't be penalties and people could face liability if they do there was a bill where they were going to punish employees of stores if they stop people from stealing from the store. >> trace: we did that story and you are talking about this whole thing with the gavin newsom press release, june 11th this year and they reports a 34 percent drop in crime compared to the same time last year and the national review headlines follow-up say oakland crime touted by local dams face on faulty data in the san francisco krone so -- chronicle backs up that saying as oakland publishing misleading crime data for years. stephanie, your stay is cooking the books on crime and lying to you. >> yes, and we've had propositions in the past 10

years ago with proposition 47 which was deceivingly called the safe neighborhoods and schools act which actually reduce consequences for crime survey of crime being reclassified and then when businesses and residents have experience over and over people not being punished for crimes that in turn causes them not to report it and skews those numbers. >> trace: that is a whole thing that there's clearly rewards for the state to lie to their citizens. >> exactly, this is how gavin newsom wants him to continue to store it is just last week he was trying to lie about the proposition that will be on the ballot that will change this and bring back penalties for crime and for a fentanyl drug dealers and poison paddlers in our community and gavin newsom likes to distort the numbers and take advantage of the fact people are not reporting crimes were reporting crimes differently and

crime is up across the state and a terrible situation for our communities and makes us all feel unsafe. >> trace: when you are penalized for reporting crime, something is wrong in the system. thank you both. it's an election year so there is finally an increased effort by the biden administration to stop the migrants who may have ties to isis terrorists from being released into the united states and here's the senior national correspondent. >> increasingly concerning is the potential for coordinated attack here in the homeland. >> prompting a new policy at the southern border from the fbi as ice agents no longer release migrants from tajikistan saying there isis trained terrorists posing as asylum-seekers. >> take an extra step to make sure they thoroughly get the reasons why this person detained

>> new directive comes after border agents released eight nationals to learn later of their past ties to isis. >> we know criminals are making get in and terrorists are making their way and. >> reporter: reportedly prompted terror investigation into them and isis trained killed more than 100 in moscow and part of attacks in iran and türkiye and finding central asian migrants on the u.s. border is rare with just 26 call from 2005 to 2020 however in the last four years, that rose to 1500 and critics fear biden administration maybe acting to leak. >> most terrorists won't be found in a database because there is no information to be found. >> reporter: matching names to the list helps, critics of the administration that they should require asylum-seekers to file

the papers outside the u.s. and border agents to deny entry until an application approved. >> trace: thank you william. coming up, she resigned from lã©vis over woke policies and owns an athletic apparel company standing up for women sports now she's weighing in on the presidential election as well. jennifer adjoins is live next on why she won't vote for biden the second time and why she may never vote democratic again and later in 'the nightcap'. >> i have said it before and i will set it again, one of the most loyal human beings i've ever met and the man has unstoppable energy and no one, no one will outwork this guy but most importantly, he truly loves and believes in our country. >> trace: dana white, rnc speaker 2020 such as peak at republican national convention again next week but this time he will be right before donald trump takes the stage considering yvonne could

for women sports weighing in on presidential election saying she won't vote for biden again and let's bring in the owner and great to have you on the show so you wrote an op-ed in the washington examiner that reads, i voted for democratic candidates every election since i could vote back to 1988 and now 55-year-old and register independent and not vote for any democratic candidate in this election very possibly in any election ever again but think president joe biden needs to step down for the sake of democracy. what was the breaking point for you? >> for me was covid and the democrats lie about everything during covid and wide about the risks to children and to keep schools closed in vaccine effectiveness and they took away our most basic civil rights and

we could not gather and have people in her home and we could not go to church i mean i can't imagine any more egregious violations of civil liberties and colluded with media and social media companies to censor and silence us and that's on a party i can vote for or i cannot vote for him for president. >> trace: did you look about the debate and saw the president the way he was handling himself and thought, they are lying to us again? they lie to us again about this. >> anyone with eyes and ears have known they have been lying about his competence for at least a year and probably three but we all know that in the media has carried it for them and democrats colluded with all forms of media and anyone can see what i could see our key did not know where he was half the time and they're telling us we have to vote for this man to save democracy and that's not

democracy and he's not making the decisions with a bunch of unnamed who knows who bureaucrats behind the scenes making decisions and thus not democracy so i think to save democracy, a nice a step down and need to candidates of viable and make decisions for the country. >> trace: you had an ad for your company to put on tiktok and play some of the ad and get your final thoughts. >> if you know it isn't fair or safe to allow males to compete in girl sports because it's obvious. stand up. we deserve our own sports, privacy, fairness, safety and deserve a chance to compete. be honest, be brave and if you agree with that, stand up and stand with us. >> trace: 30 seconds but why was the odd band. >> again the democrats colluded

with media and tiktok kicked us off and when i spoke directly said you cannot speak about the transgender issue they called it when i talk to them and we can't speak the truth but a brand standing up for truth and women and the protection of women sports and spaces and people leaning in and want the brand and finding it even though we're being censored not just on tiktok on instagram and comcast. >> trace: as a father and of two daughters, thank you for coming on. >> trace: to astronaut supposed to spend eight days aboard the iss are still there as boeing's new star liner sprayers craft had helium leaks and thruster problems on a trip in early june given both of them a lot of extra time and space and as nasa engineers investigate exactly what the problem is with their arrive home. >> failure is not an option is why we are saying here now. >> we practice the law so i have

convention and would be brilliant move. >> i love this idea you know dana white the impediment of the american dream and a lot of success but he's a man of the people just like president trump so a very fitting choice and proves president trump really making the decision based off the american people and not the washington elite. >> i think he's a great choice with a lot of energy and he's fun and i think it will appeal to voters of all ages. >> trace: i agree. >> yes, but who does donald trump really need to meet and i agree with kevin that he needs to give permission to the lululemon welling -- wearing chardonnay wearing women in the suburbs. >> i think dana white is pretty big in the trump space and he has a lot of energy and they are buddies so i think it's a good choice. >> trace: i think he's a good choice and i think kelsey is a

great speaker and elon musk. we asked the audience and yes, they love 74 percent dana white. rumor control says i have no problem and kid rock for keynote speaker. elon musk would be an interesting keynote. dan says a horrible idea and it won't get more votes and cheryl says vice president pick because a great introduction for them and talented speaker with a political upside and candace owens, nikki haley and unite the party. if not vp or he will be the future of the party. thank you for watching america's late news at night and i amwo late news at night and i amwo trace gallagher anold los angels and i will see you right back here again tomorrow.
