hunter biden, this is wild. pleading guilty in the tax evasion case. does this mean joe is going to break another promise. >> i said i will abide by the jury decision and i will do that and i will not pardon him. >> laura: and he is not going to drop out of the race. the left's favorite narrative is back. new evidence that they could use to silence conservatives. >> an internal planning document created by the kremlin states that as a goal of the campaign securing russia's preferred outcome in the election. >> laura: plus, we are going to take you inside that apartment building taken over by migrant grangs. >> scared because there was a lot of them. in that situation you may along and let them do whatever they want to. >> laura: exclusive new details tonight about how they actually got there. but, first: the phony feminists, that's the focus of tonight's angle. ♪ now, the unofficial anthem of the women's liberation movement in the 1970s was an iconic

helen ready song ♪ i am strong ♪ strong ♪ i am invincible ♪ invincible ♪ i am woman ♪ >> laura: i am woman, hear me roar. that should capture the campaign of a supposed trailblazer like kamala harris we were going to empower women take charge and if necessary take names. the idea was that women would and should be in positions where they could be leaders in any field. and not restrained by the men around them. if only they were given a fair shot. now, look at -- let's look at kamala harris. she has always tried to portray herself as a strong female force to be reckoned with. >> come on, now. what we know always though is knowing that we get out of bed every morning. and we get our hair done.

and we -- and we do what is necessary. >> laura: the narrative was set early on. and the press dutifully fell in line. now the push is in overdrive. kamala the savior of the abortion industry. and then there's a strong resume, of course for attorney general, prosecutor, vice president, senator. finally a political leader that women could be proud of. but the facts tell a different story. first, she didn't earn this nomination on her own. it was handed to her. she didn't build the campaign organization that is now propping her up, either. nor did she develop any of her own positions, any idea she may have had back in california or in the senate, those have just been jed sonned by consultants who know her and don't trust her to make the case for them the supposed power house not doing what a vice president do let alone a president.

when you see that even other had friends in the media are begging her i mean begging her not to delve into serious issues. she is being treated as a damsel in distress for sure. >> bacon and get all that fat going. and then i put garlic some chili at the pepper and water and chicken stalk and let it go for a while before i but the the greens. in. >> laura: everything else, the border, inflation, our military recruitment crisis, that's off limits for discussion. it will be handled by her staff. and they have made it very clear that they have no intention of putting her out there to defend her tax hikes, her federal spending spree, or her plans to cram down climate change mandates. >> you're going to continue over the course of the next 8 or 9

weeks to see her talk a little bit about more about what her vision is going to be. in terms of policies that she is going to back when she becomes president. >> laura: i don't even know what that is i remember when margaret thatcher though became prime minister of britain. she was the eepitome of grace and strength. and her economic and foreign policy vision, that was clearly her own. she was brilliant and could debate serious policy with the best of them. and, my generation expected that we would live in a world with a strong, powerful female leader and leaders across politics, business, ache dame i can't and medicine. and indeed on the angle every week we feature accomplished, bright, inarticulate women. ceos, senators, scholars, philanthropist. have you seen them all. there are people like tulsi gabbard, kim reynolds, marsha blackburn, people like senator katie britt in alabama. who thinks that if any one of them were running for president, that they would be hiding from

the press and giggling about whether to put tabasco on greens. strong women are capable of being leaders. but she is being used by a powerful group of people to mask an unpopular and failing democrat party that voters frankly when they really look at the issues despise. but she is not going to be allowed to make any real changes to the failing policies of the past few years. no way. she is not going to be allowed to pick any of her top cabinet officials. she won't be allowed to set our china policy. she will not be allowed to make decisions about the war in ukraine. and i know tonight you are sitting there going well, laura, she is not making those, who is going to make those decisions? well, who knows but today there was a dweeby campaign guy on tv speaking about her economic plans. >> we have got to go win an election and the vice president is doing that by talking about her economic vision. and it's really -- it's really different. >> it's really different. waited, can you tell me what is really different?

>> she wants to take into effect the first national law to take on corporate price gouging. >> laura: he is just a staffer. in not very articulate one at that the ones who will really make the big calls, are the same people who got biden to drop out of the race. the same people who gave her the nomination. the same people who told her to argue that the debate rules should be changed. the same people who decided she'll stop at one debate, no more. those are the ones who will have the real power if she were to ever win the presidency. i think she will even have less power than biden when you really think about it. at least he had some people in there who were loyal to him. and he did have a lot of experience. all kamala harris is going to have is her radical sister and i don't know maybe her brother-in-law? she wants him to be attorney general, but i doubt they will let her do that. of course, the press will not dig into any of this. they are not interested. they are going to maintain a shocking but i guess really kind

of predictable level of incuriosity about who governs. the voters in november may have a different view. women, all you women out there, you should want a real president who is directly responsible to you. who isn't merely a puppet for more powerful figures. how is that girl power? forget kamala the tough prosecutor lady. she is more like an affable daytime talk show host. should be a good panelist on theview. unconsciously admitting that there is zero substance to kamala harris, politico today billed the harris-walz campaign as like -- something like an 80's style sitcom. even dubbing it the kamala and tim show. well, tonight, on behalf of the 1980s, if you remember family ties or the cosby show. tim and kamala show. it's not even close. they are more like, i don't know, the local market host of a kind of mildly fun and amusing

morning show, maybe a good morning berkeley. good morning oakland. good morning minneapolis. today on this episode of good morning berkeley. tim and i will talked about coolest made halloween costumes for your kids. that kind of show. but this isn't what we expected of our first female vice president, certainly not what we expected. for our first female president. we want strong, smart, and never afraid to answer a question. but her entire campaign, her entire premise for running is insulting to women. and that's the angle. joining us now, mollie hemingway, editor and chief of the federalist and marc thiessen speech writer for george w. bush, both fox news contributors. mollie, it seems like the harris campaign is already trying to get out in front of the damsel in distress narrative. watch. >> she is her own candidate. she is the president's vice president. she is very proud of the record that they have accomplished

together. and she has been proud to support and be a key player in so many of the key achievements of this administration. but she is her own candidate. and she has her own views. >> laura: that cnn host didn't even seem to believe that i am woman hear me roar through a spokesman. >> it has been amazing to watch this campaign where kamala harris is afraid. truly afraid to talk to the media. which is a weird situation. because the corporate press. they are already with her. they want her to win. and she is afraid to even talk to them. she is the incumbent vice president. she has a failed presidency. with president biden. but the arguement in democrats seems to be don't worry so much about kamala harris dojted worry about the fact maybe she is laser or incompetent. permanent d.c. class that runs things. there is a truth to that in the democrat party, but the problem is i think for a lot of voters. people don't really like what that permanent d.c. class have

been delivering. whether it's foreign policy. border policy. economic policy in particular. and kamala harris has had every opportunity, every opportunity to fight those policies while she has been the incumbent vice president and she has never done it once. >> laura: and israeli jarrett, the old obama hand is pretending that kamala's candidacy, mark, isn't really about identity politics. watch. >> she puts joy and laughter and sense of unity back in our country. she is not running because she is a woman. she is not running because she a person of color. she doesn't expect to win because of those issues. she expects to win because she is actually the most qualified person running for office. >> laura: marc? joy and laughter but we won't let her go out and talk about any serious issues. what is israeli jarrett really selling there? is that modern day feminism? is that the girl power we should hope our daughters aspire to?

clearly not if she is not running because of gender or race what is her agenda. you say how it's like an 80's sitcom. like a 90's sitcom seinfeld a show about nothing. that's the better analogy for the harris campaign. she did that interview with cnn. they asked her the most simple and obvious question. what will -- if you are elected. what will you do on day one? and she just gave a word salad. how can you be a not just a candidate for president. every person running in a primary know what is they would do on day one. she is the nominee of the party. and she couldn't answer what i dual on day one. it's the most stunning -- i'm old enough to remember when roger mud asked ted kennedy you know why do you want to be president? and he couldn't answer the question. and this was the end of his political career. for president. how is that not the end of her candidacy right there?

>> laura: that's great point. mollie, again, the woman's movement, and girl power is all about just getting a fair shot not about changing the metrics for a female candidate. they want to change the rules for kamala. one debate. no press interviews a little softy on cnn with her emotional support animal. the rules are changed, taco, gardening and music and that's about it. >> the situation for women, they want to see a woman who is articulate, competent, has some successes behind her. we have not seen that with kamala harris or her political career. now, that hasn't been a problem thus far. she is obviously run, managed to make it to great heights. the problem i think is that democrats and their media have pulled out every stop to help her get to this point and her polls are not where they need to be. this is going to be a close race because of how divided the country is. but she should be doing much better with the level of

propaganda that she has been getting. allies in the press. so as she has to start coming out and talking more and something that she struggles with she will have to are a kick could you late some positions. she has been using other people to come out and claim that she has changed all of these positions into she has consistently held quite radical. see how that bears up under questioning which at some point have to take place. >> laura: speaking to mollie's point about where kamala harris stands in the polls. despite getting this huge push from the regime media. nate silver's analysis over the last week has been fairly shocking to a lot of the democrats. trump now has a 60.1% chance of winning. kamala has a 39.7% chance. mark, he looks at trends, comparisons, i believe to other campaigns where she is trailing behind, except among college-educated women. she were in a strong position, i don't think she would need to be spending a lot of time in new hampshire and minnesota.

that's exactly right. they are afraid policies so toxic to the american people. the funny thing is that the left likes to say that donald trump is a threat to democracy. do you know what is a real threat to democracy? a presidential candidate, nominee of a major party who won't take questions from the press. i mean, they are all upset that he called them fake news. she won't even talk to the fake news. she won't answer their questions. i mean, it's a threat to democracy? a candidate who won't give a major policy address and tell you what she wants to do when she is elected. because she doesn't know. she couldn't answer the question. that's a threat to democracy. >> laura: women a lot smarter than this. i have to believe it in the end. mollie and marc, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> laura: hunter biden just blindsided his dad's doj? really? what are the real details? we will bring them to you, next. ♪

♪ ♪ hunter biden stunning prosecutors today when he changed his not guilty plea to guilty in that federal tax evasion case. joining us now from right outside the courtroom fox news chief correspondent jonathan hunt. jonathan, what can you tell us? >> laura, just about two hours ago, we ended what has been a

quite extraordinary day here at the courthouse in downtown los angeles. with hunter biden walking out of that courthouse, having pleaded guilty to all nine counts of tax evasion and tax fraud. he held his wife's hand, melissa's hand as he walked out, said absolutely nothing but left it to his lead attorney abbe lowell to explain why hunter biden suddenly changed his plea to guilty on all counts. listen here. >> hunter decided to enter his plea to protect those he loves from unnecessary hurt and cruel humiliation. this plea prevents that kind of show trial that would have not provided all the facts or served any real point in justice. >> and it was lowell who earlier

after everyone had arrived here at the courthouse dropped the bombshell in court that hunter biden did indeed want to change his plea to guilty. stab the defense had conditions. in other words, biden would not admit to all of the accusations against him while still pleading guilty. the department of justice lawyers objected to that and the judge indicated he was more willing to consider an open plea. in which biden admitted guilt on all charges. so then the prosecution was allowed to read the entire 56-page indictment, including all the lured details about strip clubs, expensive hotels, and expensive cars. and at the end of that, judge mark scarsy asked hunter biden on each charge how do you plead? and nine times hunter biden said guilty. he will now be sentenced on december 16th. we will then wait to see if president biden lives up to his word not to pardon his son nor

commute any sentence. meantime, back on the east coast, former president donald trump's freedom, future freedom was on the line to some extent in a d.c. courtroom today as his attorneys argued that his election interference case should be thrown thrown out of court no. decision and no trial date set as yet. laura, fittingly today, in the home of hollywood, it's the west coast courthouse the won best drama award. >> laura: unbelievable. we didn't predict that jonathan thank you so much. joining us co-host of "the five" judge jeanine pirro. i was under the weather last week and you filled. in thank you so much for that you were awesome, my friend. >> judge jeanine: thank you. >> laura: what is your read of all of this. first on the hunter front? >> judge jeanine: okay. on the hunter front, you had the department of justice and abbe lowell, hunter's lawyer who worked on a deal that was so preposterous and it would give

him immunity in perpetuity that the judge, as you will recall months ago said this is absurd. there is no precedent for it and threw the whole thing out. so, now they are scheduled to go to trial. and got 120 prospective jurors sitting in the courtroom, ready to go. everybody is teed up. and fired up. and all of a sudden, abbe lowell says we want to plead guilty. would but we want an alford plea. an alford plea, of course, is a situation where the defendant says um, i'm going to maintain my innocence but i will accept the guilt and the punishment that goes with it. now, normally, this is handled with the prosecutor ahead of time. and it is a very unusual kind of plea and i said earlier today, in 40,000 cases in my office a year, we did it once. and in this case, though, there was no discussion between the prosecution and the defense, and so the prosecutors are furious, the department of justice looks ridiculous because they are ready to go to trial.

and hunter biden wants an alford plea. and so, they obviously were not talking, and the judge says we're going forward. so what happens? is he forces the reading of all of the counts of the indictment, 56 pages. three felonies, six misdemeanors, and hunter pleads as jonathan said to all of these counts. now, the sentencing is december 16th. but, tomorrow the judge will decide, based upon at least giving the prosecutor an opportunity to argue and say we don't want you to give him an alford plea. by the way, it's the prosecution's decision. not the judge's. and so i suspect that there will not be an alford plea. he has nothing to lose, laura. he pled guilty to everything. he knows and he is going to get a pardon or at least a commutation. >> laura: just to your point, these prosecutors have been living, breathing and eating

this case for months and months. so, up all night. their post-it notes. getting the opening, closing. and then this. i mean, you just don't do this. this just doesn't happen. talk about ticking them off. i'm playing that polite vernacular. >> it doesn't happen. these lawyers are like gladiators now. they are ready for like the cages to open up and ready to go fight. and abbe lowell just comes in and says we are going to do an alford plea. the prosecution says what are you talking about? but, again, the department of justice is looking bad as it relates to hunter biden. hunter biden has managed to make his father look bad, the department of justice look bad. and, you know, anybody who says the poor hunter like abbe lowell said he had a drug problem. nobody cares, it's not a defense. hunter biden is one that made the all the money, didn't have to pay taxes on the years that they allowed the statute of limitations to run, laura. and now he wants to be able to

say i'm not really guilty, hogwash. >> laura: no. of course the big story in my view was all the money that was made from overseas interest which still is outstanding in that case and that examination. judge,. >> judge jeanine: can i say one more thing, laura, fascinating is i think last month, in a bill of particulars they came out and they started talking about a remainian oligarch from whom they got millions of dollars. all of the sudden they are leaking more information out and so you know that there was so much there, they couldn't afford to have this go to trial. >> laura: abbe lowell says this is an act of bravery essentially on the part of hunter biden biscubravery and count your mon. judge thank you so much. just a month before the election, what's back? what do you think is back? russia, russia, russia. stay with us. ♪

harsh lawyer you that you this was going to happen. addiction for these people. russian interference playbook back just in time for the election. move by the biden-harris doj. gave the media and big tech a green light once again to censor conservatives. >> this is an infection implanted into the american political system. if you listen to many conservative republicans, not all of them, but many conservative republicans in the house and the senate, they do indeed parrot russian propaganda. they dress it up. they change the investor binge verbiage andrussian propaganda d the infection lasts. >> laura: the infection lasts. maybe they should the mrna shot beings mike. that so-called russian propaganda talking about all the modern issues to voters. if you dig deep into the doj

affidavit, they are getting their prosecuting the case against russian interference all the way down to page 22 #. you will find a slide. now, this is purportedly from the russians on topics that they wanted to highlight in the united states. and this is what the doj is warning folks to look out for. okay. among the issues, inflation, unaffordable prices for food and essential goods. the risk of job loss for white americans, crime, overspending on foreign policy and last but not least, we're being drawn into the ukraine war. so basically all the issues that trump and vance talk about, that's what russia wants to highlight in this election interference effort. according to the doj. what, instead of urging its surrogates to spring content on all those issues, you know, that's what we're supposed to say? but, again, these are the issues important to most american people. look at the polls, conservatives are going to talk about these issues because these issues

matters to the american people. joining us now missouri senator jojosh hawley. senator, it's so obvious what is happening here. if you believe that we're spending too much money in certain areas of foreign policy. i guess you are part of the russia, russia, russia interference? >> this is the third straight presidential election, laura, that they have tried this. nobody believes this stuff. this isn't about foreign interference by russia. >> this is a smoke screen for domestic interference by our deep state and the democrat party. this is the same play that they have run for years. 2016 the fbi used this playbook in order to interfere in our election that year. lie to a court. get wiretaps on trump. and launder it through the media. you remember all of that. then in 2020, anybody remember the hunter biden laptop story that they suppressed? big tech went right along with it. and now it's this again. it's the same old thing and i just say, again, nobody believes this stuff. >> well, and i think mark

zuckerberg coming forward and talking about the pressure that was brought to bear on social media companies, back in on the last election cycle. i thought that was significant. i mean, the winds are blowing through here. this entire false narrative. and this is a slippery slope, is it not? if the government can say entire topics essentially are off limits, where is the freedom in any of that, senator? >> well, here's what mark zuckerberg revealed to the american people, which is that the government colluded, our government colluded with big tech to force censorship on the american people, colluded with big tech to take down, discussions, debate that they didn't like. laura that, is absolutely unconstitutional, the first amendment does not allow it. it prohibits it. and, yet, our government was doing that by using big tech as their willing ally. they are trying to do the same thing again. this is an attempt to legitimize

it. to say e, now, the russians are doing it so they are for big tech go out there and take down any posts about inflation or the border. you have got c censor all of ths content. it's the same old thing and i don't believe the american people are going to fall for it. >> laura: senator, i want to get your thoughts on something that the angle has been covering which is this u.s. steel issue, it's one of the last remaining big u.s. companies involved in steel production. the committee on foreign investment in the u.s. says that nippon steel's proposed takeover would create national security risks, because it could hurt the supply of steel needed for critical transport, infrastructure, construction, and agriculture projects. senator, your view on this, given that biden and harris bee latedly kind of seemed to come out saying yeah, we're against this? and trump and vance also saying that. but, you know, months and months ago. >> trump has been a leader on this from the beginning. the truth is u.s. steel should not be sold i don't care what

the foreign country is we shouldn't have foreign countries owning our steel production in the united states of america. if you want to look who is to blame for this joe biden and kamala harris. it is their policies for years now that have cost us jobs that have cost us supremacy economically. that are driving more and more people into debt. look at credit card debt in this nation, laura, it's because of the policies of kamala harris and joe biden. so, yeah, us steel shouldn't be sold. those jobs ought to be right here in the united states of america. the only person who can guarantee that will happen is donald trump. >> laura: i don't believe the harris-biden, you know, switch on the topic is obviously political expediency. at least in part in play. senator, thank you. all right, coming up, we take you inside the apartment buildings that are overrun now by illegal immigrant gangs, plus, we have exclusive new details about how they exactly got there. that's next. ♪ to duckduckgo on all your devie

1bsz # violent gang members being relocated across the country. look, something every american needs to understand. so, here, the sanctuary city of denver, turns out it is so overloaded with illegals, that the city started playing a game of hot potato with its newcomers, sending them to other towns in colorado. get rid of them, right? so thanks to freelance journalist tracy wolfer osborne we learned exclusive new details about how government funded nonprofits are working hard, they are working overturn in denver to spread the migrant pain elsewhere. and august 29th email from a city worker, also obtained by the angle reveals two nonprofits

were getting state and then refunding and from our understanding deposit assistance was offered as well as three months of rent in some cases. this is done starting in the spring of 2023. and continueed up until the spring of 2024. we also know that that email from the email that they are being brought to an apartment complex owned by the same company that runs the one with armed gangs roaming through it. so there is more though. this company has a load of problems, cbs colorado reporting that a local law firm discovered tren de aragua's stranglehold on one of the apartment complexes that it actually began last year. the law firm's report says that gang members are responsible for assaults, for human trafficking, sexual abuse of minors, and other criminal activity. so, when you hear kamala, talking tough on oh the border

enough and far from over. and the fact that these folks are a product so unfortunate the people of america, american citizens have had to suffer because of it. >> laura: this is one window that we are seeing, jonathan, into one or two or three apartment buildings in aurora, colorado. we know chilean gangs are operating up and down the east coast. and is ripping off homes, terrorizing neighborhoods, but, you spoke to the man whose apartment was being targeted in this viral video. i want to play it. >> so tell us what happened with those guys coming with guns? [speaking spanish] >> know them when they showed up like that okay i'm going to come out, whatever you are going to do. do it. the door. obviously he was scared because it was a lot of them. that situation you just got to play along and let them do

whatever they want to. >> and what do they do? >> they were just searching for something but they didn't find it. >> laura: jonathan, what can you tell us about that interaction? i don't know if is he a migrant as well. but, looks like everyone is being terrorized there. >> yeah, laura, first of all, credit to the council member for really doubling down and sticking to her convictions. that's why we are here. we are hereby to see for ourselves. i spoke to that migrant, illegal immigrant from venezuela. he was absolutely terrified. he told us off the record he really couldn't acknowledge that tda was there. but no doubt those fellows in that viral video walking around with a long gun with a scope, aks, pistols, those are definitely tda members. all the folks in the apartment complex publicly will say they have no idea if tda is here or we don't see tda. tda's tentacles are not only in this apartment complex. they are also in whispering pines. we have obtained the 10-page document conducted by this

independent law firm showing that tda is indeed absolutely extorting these illegal immigrants who are absolutely vulnerable right now. >> laura: and we also know, do we not, danielle, that tren de aragua responsible for human trafficking, drug trafficking, arms trafficking, this is not just like a regular straight gang out there doing graffiti, this is serious business. this is very serious business. you know, everybody keeps talking to me about how the blood and the crypts have been around for such a long time. i don't know that the bloods and the crypts are behind child sex trafficking, you know, rings. i'm not sure they would take claim to that the fact that this has been down played the way that it has. and quite frankly, we are at a point where whether they are here illegally or not, this is human suffering, period. that is being denied. it is being down played. and it is being lied about. in an effort to cover up the current administration's failed

border policy. >> laura: well, they are clearly a big cover-up an attempt to cover up this story and to down play it. we saw that from other local officials. danielle and jonathan, you didn't allow them to do that and for that we salute you. thank you. >> laura: this is a fox news alert. police in georgia just announcing they have arrested the father of that 14-year-old school shooting suspect. here with more details fox news correspondent steve harrigan. steve, what can you tell us tonight? >> laura, this is really big news from state law officials. the georgia bureau of investigation, they just said they have arrested the 54-year-old father of the suspected 14-year-old shooter. this father faces charges of murder, manslaughter, and cruelty to children. we expect to hear more at a press conference just a few minutes away. this is really part of a trend we saw a few years ago at that school shooting in oxford, michigan. we saw, again, parents arrested because of their child carrying out a school shooting. those parents facing 10 years behind bars in michigan. we will see what happens to the

a story you won't see covered by the regime media, a different kind of kamala bounce. extreme views on hot button issues are bouncing members of her own party to the other side. for the second time this week, a democrat is ditching the democrat party and coming on the angle to explain why. >> in this capital behind me, i served as both the senate democratic caucus chair and senate majority leader. but today i say goodbye, i've had enough. i change my voting registration today as the sun was rising to

republican, which has got under donald trump, become the champion of working people. >> joining me now is the woman you just saw, gloria romero, former california state senate democrat leader. gloria, wow, what is your warning to the democrat party tonight? >> thank you, laura, there are so many more like me who have been disaffected democrats and we do not recognize this so-called party of democracy any longer. 14 million votes were simply thrown out in a primary that was already red from the beginning because the elites and the big party donors did not like the outcome. so we've just said enough, we are out of here. >> jesse: did you have dealings with kamala harris when you were a california senate leader? >> i did see her in my public safety committee which i chaired

at one point. at that point she had come in to pass a bill that looked to jail mothers of the students who were true into, not going to school. but let me tell you, i have tried championing school choice education, her record as attorney general showed that she did nothing to change the schools, to provide for school choice. in her hometown of oakland, california, two -- today 75% of both african-american and latino children are not reading or doing math at basic levels of proficiency and yet she went to court with the teachers union, very powerful, big donors, to block education reforms that these families had had the courage to go to court and sue over. that is the record of the attorney general of california, so the absence of school choice,

education freedom, open borders, crime rampant, a mockery of citizenship itself, there are many reasons that democrats have been saying goodbye and it's a warning that i'm not the only one. there are many of us who are looking to change either officially our party registration or simply vote donald trump in november, as i will. >> jesse: >> laura: i think the trump campaign should head to oakland where she grew up, the berkeley oakland area, and do an event. maybe smaller events with regional people and workers and so forth. i think people are hungering for commonsense in california. it's such an amazing state, you know, i thought i was going to live there after i took the bar exam, took the bar exam there, love california, still do but it has to be saved and i mean do people want to save the state or do they want to see it's world down the drain? i think trump has to go there. what do you have to lose?

he should say that to them. >> that's what i remember. when he first asked that in 2016, what do you have to lose? well here i am many years later finally saying goodbye, i would welcome donald trump. i'm not alone, there are some massive changes going on in the city of oakland, they are trying to recall the mayor, there's a massive crime problem, a lot of it due to unmitigated migration, and so i would hope that he would come. blue california maybe blue but people are ready to vote for change to make america great again and i take pride in saying that today. >> laura: gloria, that's a big one. former democrat senate leader here on the angle from california. thank you for speaking out, speaking truth to power, we appreciate it. that is it for us tonight, follow me on x and instagram, thank you for watching and jesse watters is next.
