joe biden in 2024 if that's the matchup. so to then send fbi agent, we assume this is merrick garland at the department of justice, joe biden's attorney general to send fbi agents to mar-a-lago to the home of the president, you know, before midterm election, in the run-up to a presidential election, is insane, is insane, dana. and the people of this country are not going to go for this. >> what a gambit. and keep in mind, too. i know, jesse, you have talked about this, this is the same fbi as well who sat on hunter biden's laptop for a year and you had all of these -- you have all of these intelligence officials that signed this statement saying that it was all nothing but russian collusion. now they are all admitting that it's real. they are only using it as a cuddle to prevent biden from running again to sabotage gavin newsom for 2024 because biden is too much of an embarrassment. i don't know which biden or his son i don't know which at this point. you are absolutely right. i don't have no idea what they're thinking about doing this before midterms. we are 90-ing so games out. i can't remember the days anymore. right out of midterms. so far this has not provided anything. it has not produced anything. it has only added questions. democrat doing this when we have inflation, we have a recession. we have problems at the border, this is just nothing more than democrats trying to settle political scores. like it has been from the very beginning. this is a dangerous game they are playing and they have the audacity to accuse everybody else of being insurgents or excuse me patience parents of being terrorists. fisa surveillance on innocent american, when you have the irs targeting people. we were going -- jesse, we were originally talking about the irs tonight and now you have the double irs expansion. i am almost without words about the stunt the governing party in the united states continues to poll to protect their power. it's a dangerous game. >> jesse: we were told the fbi wasn't going to get involved in any politically charged search warrants, investigations, announcements, indictment before an election. we were told that. remember what they did with the crooked situation with the server. they made all sorts of announcements then. they investigated the trump campaign then. you saw what they did in october by covering up the laptop. and now they are going to send agents into mar-a-lago before the midterm election? this is not what we were told the fbi was going to do. especially, dana, on the heels at what we did at the top of the show laid out paul pelosi sr., suspiciously involved in insider trading with the wife, nancy, and then be she takes her son to this asia trip and tries to hide it while he has lithium investments, ev battery investments all over these asian countries. they are trying to cover it up. nothing gets done with hunter. trying to push that off. little tax thing make that go away. evidence they were holding 10 for the big guy. diamonds have being exchanged. there is like 150 flags from treasury that there there was suspicious wire transfers coming from all these countries, china, russia, ukraine into the biden family bank accounts that were all co-mingled and you are sending agents to mar-a-lago? did they get the address wrong, dana? >> exactly. i just -- i'm amazed because there is more evidence to implement the biden administration than ever -- actually nothing has been there for the trumps. everything they have accused that former first family of seems like it's the bidens who have done it. you talked about paul pelosi or nancy pelosi's son his involvement in some of this green energy stuff. i know there is an investigation currently ongoing, you know, with the russian collusion stuff. with hunter biden and his involvement, his investment firm and what part it played in chinese. acquiring for china huge cobalt mine instrumental with rare earth elements and cv how much does this the family stand to make from the deal. try to settle the score of somebody like hillary clinton and democrats still enraged with this day enraged at voters the system that empowered the voter and enraged at all the of the people to dare challenge their control. this is all an ongoing tantrum from this party because they were 'vested in 2016 by the american voter and honestly, are they trying to prevent it from happening again? >> jesse: they raided trump's office trump's other attorney's office rudy giuliani. they raided other members of the campaign. how is it possible just raid everybody's home that's associated with president donald trump? everyone's home gets raided? they kick the door down. >> roger stone. >> jesse: rocialg stone's home raided early in the morning. >> not to mock his age or anything. he is an elderly man and his wife is an elderly woman. elderly couple living in florida and they had the media tipped off. they were waiting outside lights ready to go. amazing how many photos were taken before they even got inside his house. the media was tipped off before he was. and they made a very big -- they made big theater of it there is just, jesse, there is just too many things here that are out in broad daylight for voters, for americans to see. we have a lot of questions. i mean, we see how poorly it's going for this administration. is this just a distraction? are they trying to distract us from the horrific economy? are they trying to distract us from the loss of wages and the loss of jobs and the recovery that was towarded by his trillion-dollar rescue plan right out of the gate? we have to have ask these questions because all of the stuff they accused trump of is ofar they have not provided any kind of substance to back up these claims. i'm tired of hearing about russia. entire of hearing about comey is coming. comey never came. he left. guess what? all of this stuff with russia looks more to implicate the biden administration than it ever did trump. i'm so tired of this tantrum from this party. >> jesse: we are going to have more details on this fbi raid of mar-a-lago. this sun press kented in history. we will continue to cover the rest of the story throughout the hour. dana, thank you so much and we will be right back. >> thank you, jesse. ♪ ♪ ks... choose stelara® from the start... and move toward relief after the first dose... with injections every two months. stelara® may increase your risk of infections, some serious, and cancer. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you have an infection, flu-like symptoms, sores, new skin growths, have had cancer, or if you need a vaccine. pres, a rare, potentially fatal brain condition, may be possible. some serious allergic reactions and lung inflammation can occur. feel unstoppable. ask your doctor how lasting remission can start with stelara®. janssen can help you explore cost support options. hi, i'm debra. i'm from colorado. i've been married to my high school sweetheart for 35 years. i'm a mother of four-- always busy. i was starting to feel a little foggy. just didn't feel like things were as sharp as i knew they once were. i heard about prevagen and then i started taking it about two years now. started noticing things a little sharper, a little clearer. i feel like it's kept me on my game. i'm able to remember things. i'd say give it a try. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. jess jetion we're back with a breaks fox news alert. the feds have raided former president trump's home. the issuing a statement these are dark times for our nation as my beautiful home mar-a-lago in palm beach, florida is currently under siege, raided and occupied by a large group of fbi agents. this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate it is prosecutorial misconduct. the weaponization of the justice system and an attack by radical left democrats who desperately don't want me to run for president in 2024 joining me now with details chief washington correspondent mike emanuel. >> jesse, good evening. fox news has confirmed the raid of former president trump's mar-a-lago home with a law enforcement source familiar with a search warrant. per standard protocol fbi director christopher wray and attorney general merrick garland were aware of this. they would have been fully briefed and will continue to be the former president announcing that raid a short time ago calling this dark times for our nation as his home in palm beach, florida is being raided and, quote: occupied by a large group of fbi agents. president trump saying nothing like this has ever happened to a president of the united states before. the former president's claiming prosecutorial misconduct, what he describes as a weapons of the justice system he also describes it as attack by radical left democrats who desperately don't want mr. trump to run for president in 2024. the fbi agencies even broke into his safe. is he comparing this to watergate where operatives broke into the democratic national committee but the former president says the difference between this and watergate is democrats broke into the home of the 45th president of the united states. the context of this comes as, of course, there have been high profile hearings on capitol hill by the january 6th commission shearing information with the justice department what we don't know why now what specific federal authorities are looking for at the mar-a-lago estate. bottom line the president breaking this news a short time ago himself and we have only a few details from federal authorities at this point. jesse? >> jesse: okay, mike, you have to assume they went in interest and aseized all kinds of electronic communications we know they broke into the safe and retrieved whatever is in there as well. we are talking about written documents. documents that could have been there from his time as president. there could have been tax documents. documents that he would have there for decades. we don't know what exactly they seized. we have to assume they seized pretty much everything. there has to be zero trust of the fbi when it comes to political operations like this. after the russia collusion situation. that hoax, which was determined to be a hoax since there was no actual collusion as determined by special counsel robert mueller and then you have what they did with the whistleblowers according to what we heard with recent reports before the last election covered up all sorts of information with the laptop of hunter biden before that election. and now this right before a midterm election. i mean, we are talking about three elections in a row, mike, that the fbi has been heavily involved in on the side of the democrats. do you think this country is going to handle this well? i don't. >> well, there is obviously speculation about president trump's future. he was at the cpac convention in dallas over the weekend where he won a straw poll there with a very large conservative group and so all kinds of speculation about whether he is going to announce another run for the white house. before the midterms or potentially after the midterm election. so there is a whole lot of politics involved with this. but, you better believe it's unclear what they were looking for but this is about as high profile of a raid as you would get. going into the home of a former president of the united states and so one would expect to be very thorough. not entirely clear what exactly they were looking for but probably, as you suspect, if it's a large group of fbi agents, they are probably grabbing all kinds of things but we don't know exactly what they are looking for jesse. >> jesse: thanks a lot, mike. it's not just going into the home of a former president. buck sexton joins me now. former cia officer. you are going into the home of a presidential candidate. he hasn't announced yet but everybody assumes he is running for president. this is after they went after his campaign with wiretaps and other federal investigative raids. this is insane, buck. >> jesse, almost feels like preemptive coup. we heard about the insurrection. this is meant to prevent donald trump from being able to run again. everyone is very aware. >> fact that democrats have been preparing and they have been talking about this for quite some time. and the notion that somehow suddenly there is this great need to go around all the cooperation, all the agreements, all the documents, everything that has been given up to this point for a raid on the former president's residence? i mean, i don't get upset or rattled easily about politics in this country. i know you don't, either. this is the rubicon being crossed. this is something we have never seen before. this is something that is outrageous and the usage of the fbi in this way is really the nail in the coffin for so many americans as to whether you can trust the fbi or doj. clearly not on political matters. >> this is also about respect. you have a former president of the united states. he is due respect. he has a slew of attorneys that can negotiate the release of documents that are needed. you don't have to go into his home with crowbars and go into his safe. if this is something that is going to be that sort of deal, then he has got thousands of lawyers on stand by. the justice department can just call the lawyers. we need this i'm sure he will hand it over. but you don't kick in the door. do you not kick in the door like that. >> i think we have to also take this as now a -- there is a likelihood that they are going to try bring a federal indictment against former president trump. i think now because if they don't, what they have shown us is thug police state tactics going right into the election season before the democrats are about to get annihilated after all the bad decision-making so they have to see this through, jesse. means they might actually bring the charges. >> jesse: you are freezing the republican primary electorate. you are saying this guy, who is running, most likely, could be under federal indictment. he may not be able to be the president because he could be indicted on felony charges. so you are basically telling them don't vote for the guy in the primary because, you know, we got him in the crosshairs. it's also a blackmail scandal because they are going to seize all of this information, private information, you are thinking taxes, you are thinking written documents. you are thinking all kinds of stuff he has. you just hold it out there. and you don't even need to indict him. you just have the fbi have this information and hang it over his head. and that's what they did with dossier as well. they said oh, we know some things that may have happened in a hotel room. comey said let me tell you about them. we might have some information about something you did in moscow. we are looking into it. this is how they roll, buck. buck buck it's amazing to sees a well, jesse, are a all of the hearings in congress. all of the january 6th january e and all this other nonsense they don't trust the american people to make up their minds on their and settle it through the peaceful means of a political process. this is trying to subvert that the people who lecture us all the time, democrats, about democracy, don't actually believe in its exercise. they just use it as a talking points. they use it now actually as something to bludgeon people who disagree with them politically. you are undermining our institutions. this is undermining our faith in the not only the peaceful transfer of power but in the executive arm of the government under an opposition party not to act like the secret police we have seen totalitarian regimes. this is crazy. everyone has to understand they ordered a raid on former president trump's home? based on, what? in what world would they not have been able to go to court and get the documents they wanted? in what world? remember what they did to roger stone they pulled him out dozens of long officers, long guns. stone comes out in pajamas. what do you want? could i get you a cup of tea. they are sending a message to president trump and to his supporters that they will come for you if you stand against a machine. this is a chilling moment in the country's history. >> jesse: buck sexton thank you for joining us on this really scary evening. let's go to dan bongino the host of unfiltered on saturday night. dan your emotional action. i think everyone is a little emotional here about this raid. >> yeah. i mean, you think? this is some third world bullshit right here. let me say it again third world bullshit. i mean every word of that i don't care that it's cable news. i was a federal agent. i raised my right hand. and i swore to protect and defend the constitution of the united states. and i love this country. this is a freaking disgrace. a disgrace. we don't live in cuba. we don't live under kim jong un. we live in a constitutional republic. a representative democracy. you have a bunch of fbi agents raiding the home of a former president because they don't like his politics? are you kidding me? you spent this whole show, jesse, and i have spent my entire time either on fox or on my podcast exposing the left for claiming russia interfered in an election hillary clinton paid off a bunch of foreign agents, her team literally, to fabricate a story that occupied the nation for four years. what is she doing right now? getting a manicure in freakin' chappaqua. she is not doing squat. nothing. hunter biden is having sex on tape while doing crack, while doing crack. and what is he doing? he is living in a malibu mansion and, yet, the president, the former president, who whether you agree with him or not, on his claims about the election, whether you agree or not, we still live in a country where you are allowed to challenge an election. there is even a process. the eca. the electoral counteract. you may not like it. but it's a process. how do i know it's a process? because some people are trying to reform it. you may not like it, but now you send the fbi -- let me tell you something, i have paid due deference to the fbi for a long time and a lot of listeners didn't like it because i worked with some very good people over there who have since retired. the management of the fbi has now shredded any single shred, credibility this agency had left. nobody will take them seriously from this point on. it is over. you have heard the example. stone, manafort, cohen over and over. are they good guys or bad guys? i don't know. i don't care. i don't know them. all i'm telling you is you cannot tell me restill live in a constitutional republic and not the freakin' third world when you have hillary clinton paying foreign agents to foreign election. people lying under oath. hunter biden doing crack on tape what happens where are the federal agents? they are not in malibu or chappaqua, they are in mar-a-lago. this is some third world garbage that happened tonight. and i'm telling you the fbi management, here's the solution, last thing we have now got to win in 2022. you have no choice now, folks. oh we don't like the swampy republicans. i don't like them either. republicans may not be the solution to your problem but democrats are certainly the cause of all your problems right now. if there was ever a clarion call to remove your as from the seat and go vote in 2022, this is it. there has to be not only hearings, but a total, total house cleaning at the top of the doj and fbi. when the left is complaining about one firing, fire 10 more people the next day. and then when the "new york times" starts crapping their diaper and whining about it, fire 100 more people the day after that. until you can get people in there who aren't republicans, who aren't democrats, but who believe in our constitution like i did. i was going to give my life to protect barack obama i'm not going to be lectured a hole leftist about anything. they didn't see my kid crying fly around the world to protect. i it my job. this is embarrassing. there should be a massive house cleaning i'm telling you please, god, i'm begging to you vote in 2022 or you may not recognize this place afterwards. >> jesse: i think people are going to flood to the polls in november. i think there is going to be some more action you are going so-to-see out on the streets from the base after they see this break tonight because this base is very loyal to this president. and i'm not even talking about the base. i think there is a lot of honest americans that have had it with this corrupt government and what the fbi has done. there's more from the statement from the president. he says the political persecution of president donald j. trump has been going on for years now will the fully gee bunked russia, russia, russia scam impeachment hoax number one, impeachment hoax number two and so much more it never ends. it is a political targeting at the highest level. hillary clinton was able to delete and acid watch 33,000 emails after they were subpoenaed by congress. absolutely nothing has happened to hold her accountable. she even took antique furniture and other items from the white house. i stood up to america's bureaucratic corruption. i restored power to the people. and truly delivered for our country. like we have never seen before the establishment hated it. as they watched my endorsed candidates win big victories and see my dominance in all polls. and they are trying to stop me. and the republican party wants more. the lawlessness, political persecution and witch-hunt must be exposed and stopped. i will continue to fight for the great american people. it's not just about the maga movement. it's not just about the republican party. this is much, much bigger than politics. this is explosive and dangerous stuff the biden administration has done. and i think they are going to pay a serious price for this. dan bongino, i will give you one final reaction. >> i just want to say in closing, listen, america, they are laughing at you. the left thinks this is hilarious. if you doubt me, just go to any of their goofy platforms, twitter or elsewhere right now. they think this is hilarious. do you know what's really hilarious? you going out tomorrow if you are not registered tomorrow and doing it that's really hilarious. this is going to get really ugly if you don't vote in 2022. remember the mark the date, folks. it is now 7:40 eastern time on the jesse watters show august the 8th. remember the date i told you this you are not going to recognize your country if you don't fix this and sap. >> >> jesse: joeected and promised to bring people together and calm things down after the trump's presidency, and he just burned everything to the ground with what his administration did tonight. this is insane. dan bongino, thanks for joining us. >> thanks. >> jesse: now let's go to fox news national correspondent matt finn who had details about what was taken from mar-a-lago by the fbi. >> jesse, the "new york times" reports the search, according to two people familiar with the investigation, appears to be focused on material that mr. trump had brought with him to mar-a-lago, his private club and residence after he left the white house. those boxes contained many pages of classified documents according to a person familiar with their contents. the "new york times" reports mr5 boxes of material requested by officials with the national archives for many months only doing so when there became a threat of action of those boxes or documents being taken. the associated press also reports the justice depa
