. >> that's what civil rights attorney damon hewitt, who along with leaders of seven other black-ledrights organizations declared a state of emergency for democracy earlier this week. those leaders met with president biden today on the heels of the presidents own stark warning last night, about the growing threat to democracy from authoritarian and white supremacist voices in the republican party. joining us now is a damon hewitt, the president and executive director of the lawyers committee for civil rights under law. mr. hewitt, thank you for being here tonight. >> thanks for having me, alex. >> so, i want to get your thoughts on this sort of very careful needle the president was trying to thread in yesterday's speech. he said repeatedly there is a difference between republicans and the maga republicans. and then, you look at polling on one of the sort of most basic things in our democracy, the right to vote. and what happened in the 2020 election. i think it's something like 70% of republicans say they don't think joe biden is the legitimate winner of the 2020 election. do you thi

byron york, hugh hewitt and marie harf., inflation, and abortion and threats of democracy. >> yeah. and if you look at the new fox poll like a lot of pollsters they celebrate inflation and gas prices from jobs and the economy. but if you add those two categories together, because they are quite related, you get 34% versus 16% who mentioned abortion. that doesn't mean that abortion is not important. it is important. and it probably will make a difference. in some house races. republicans have to remember that this is what they wanted. i mean, for decades, they have been saying the issue of abortion should be decided by the political branches inside the states which legislators and that's what is' happening if they lose some of these contests that's the way it works. >> democrats seem well-positioned right now, marie. is there any trepidation in the democratic party about these early polls and how they close come election day? >> certainly because the historical precedent as we all know is midterm years are bad for incumbents

donald trump called into the radio show of hugh hewitt.e asked him if he is indicted, would that deter him from running for president again. take a listen. >> i do not think the people of the united states would stand for it. i think you would have problems in this country the likes of which we have perhaps never seen before. >> attempting to incite violence with that statement. how will you respond? >> i am just saying what my opinion is. >> what else would trump mean? it was lindsay graham who tied this together. saying just a couple weeks ago there would be riots if trump is indicted on this charge. >> first off, i do not think that rioting will result from that. politically a wood up our entire ability to cover in election given that it is something unprecedented talking about someone under indictment running for office. running for the highest office in the land. i do think that the former president is correct. enormous backlash. we should understand that for decades now, republicans have been, as the party of law & order and backing

i want you to check out what trump said on hugh hewitt show. here it is just watch this. >> did you take those papers down there after declassifying them intentionally or did you have any idea they were there? >> remember this, remember this. everything was declassified. >> if trump did declassify these documents as he is claiming. wouldn't there be evidence of that? >> thanks don. to understand declassification and why the trump team's been flat with judge dearie, he is certainly seen enough classified material and it's time. you can look at the websites for previously declassified documents. there's examples of the cia report that saudi arabia was responsible for killing khashoggi. that was produced as an unclassified report. so it was sterilized if you will, or planets classified declassified in the agency before was released. these are documents that were classified. they go through a process even if the prompt president did want to declassify them, or you would see parts of it still blacked out and. he would certainly see the classificatio

host: the former president told hugh hewitt he ahad -- he has absolute right to declassify arguments. guest: your viewers can decide whether trump is a paragon of truth like george washington, but his lawyers are not making that argument. there is no doubt in my mind, given that his lawyers are not making that argument, that, that probably did not happen, host: we go to new jersey, carol is on the democrats' line. caller: my first comment is we need to be very careful about electing business people. that is the reason why most people have not gotten a brazen 40 years. i am a union person. i am definitely for training. i was a recipient in the 60's. i went into a company. the way it was set up, another employee trained me. i made a third of what they made, and then after a year and a half, i was bumped up to their salary. now the way companies do it, you have to go through a county college in order to learn the same skills but it was less better during that time because you are on the job, learning from someone who knew the job, and with hands-on experience. it was a much better way of

hugh hewitt was told by itself i of the recent searches in the maralaga darin you're half worth saying, the democrats have already heard, here and the echo of the assault, the capitol and a direct threat to unleash a new civil war. however, it cannot be said that this is not good for biden, scaring trump's country , he has recently increased his rating with 33% support in july. yes, 42% now in the usa they are guessing. how it can help democrats with elections gael's polling history shows that party members of us presidents with ratings below 50% lose an average of 37 seats in the midterm elections in the house of representatives, if the rating is above 50%, then they lose 14 in total, but for democrats with their minimum overweight. and this is now critical. valentin bogdanov ivan utkin and denis lisitsyn news of the week from new york everything in europe attention to italy, where in a week early parliamentary elections will be decided. much of the prime minister with him and the course of the country. elections in italy are a test for all european leaders, whether ordinary people wi

but i guess hugh hewitt hasn't read the documents.had to say about all of this yesterday. >> i don't care what political party you are, but come on, cut the hypocrisy. this is a threat to our national security. somebody would have in his country club storage room his desk, his bedroom, top-secret information, and you have to ask yourself why? what was he going to do with it? who was he giving it to? >> what had he already done to it. >> what he had already done. let the investigation go forward, and let's find the facts. unlike those guys, i'm not saying lock him up, i'm saying let's find the facts and follow the evidence wherever it goes. >> has somebody who stood at the republican convention in whatever -- '16 and heard them screaming "lock her up" and felt it like an electric shock to hear hillary saying "lock him up" made me laugh out loud. the hypocrisy is truly remarkable. and all of -- you know, i wonder actually from you, barbara, what do you make of the asymmetry? you've got an entire right wing with the exception of a few th

it didn't take a lot of cult members when incited by donald trump and warned publicly on the hugh hewitt radio show to carry out the violence he's warned about. >> today there are 13 million individuals, the equivalent, you should say, of 13 million individuals who support the use of force to restore donald trump to the presidency. the problem that we face is that over and over in tweets by the former president, he is deliberately stoking not just the fires of anger getting him political support but the fires that are leading to that violent 13 -- the equivalent of 13 million and that is really the heart of our problem that we face as a threat to democracy because if it's just a political threat, well, then we can have elections, but once it's not just denying an election but using violence as the response to an election denial, now we're in a new game. >> so it's all part of a plan charted out on paper by people who study the rise of violent domestic extremism in societies. it just hasn't happened here in a really long time, but the denial of the election result as a political maneuver

hugh hewitt wrote about elections.lation is by schumer even if he cannot find the 60 votes he needs it's always better for his party if it is caught trying to pass the measure. no state legislatures even making a peep about this issue. is this a cynical political ploy >> this is a bipartisan effort. democrats and republicans doing it. i think it is to add certainty. business needs certainty. it is why we need, by the way, to get the appropriations down by the end of september. it does not provide the kind of certainty that we need in this country. and provides a certainty for folks that are married and protects religious liberties which i think is really, really important. i do not really have a problem with it at all. by the way, it is done in a partisan way. >> critics that worry does not have enough protections. all the cases i have followed, they have another one this fall where people do not feel protected. >> there are bipartisan conversations going on right now to make that crystal clear. i will support it. >> l

here's what he said, listen carefully, on the hugh hewitt show yesterday. >> you know the old saying, a prosecutor can indict a ham sandwich if they want to. i'm asking if there is such a prosecutor and they indict you, would that deter you for running from president again. >> i don't think the people of the united states would stand for it. as you know if a thing like that happened, i would have no prohibition against running. >> i do. that's what i want people to understand, that would not take you out of the arena. >> it would not. but i think if it happened, you would have problems in this country the likes of which perhaps we have never seen before. i don't think the people of the united states would stand for it. >> what kind of problems, mr. president. >> big problems. big problems. i don't think they would stand for it. they will not sit still and stand for this ultimate of hoaxes. >> reverend al, donald, poor donald, he thinks he's louis xiv, i am the state. if donald has problems, america does. no, problems go straight to donald. he would be the one in legal jeopardy. i foun

liasson, national political correspondent of "national public radio" and syndicated radio host hugh hewitter the senate moves forward with this bill or not. it's obvious precarious to start have having these discussions with progressive democrats and talking about defunding or the like. just weeks before the election. >> i think it was a bad move by the democrats. same dean phillips and the like-minded democrats here. report let in from minnesota. voting begins in minnesota tomorrow in the third congressional district so-called moderate phillips being challenged by tom wyler, first time congressional candidate. wherever he goes he talks about crime and fentanyl. dean phillips spent all month negotiation with the squad. these radical members to try and pretend that they are tough on crime doesn't do anything about fentanyl or the border or burned out areas of minneapolis. i think it is shouting into the window and the democrats would have been better off to spend their time on the ground talking to voters about fentanyl and the border and promising to do something next time. >> bret: mara,

what does it mean -- >> -- >> what does it mean that trump now says, i declassified, it on hugh hewitt's show. could this now come back to bite him? as he locked himself into a defense? >> i don't know if it's necessarily something that will come back to bite him. he says a number of things at any given time. and most of those things are speeches and this is certainly one of the most specious claims. if in fact he was able to declassify all of these documents and to do so verbally, there would be a huge procedure of, and certain protocols to go through the process of the classification. and that in fact this happen. again, i sort of blanca declassification or really seems beyond the pale here. i think that is why you don't see any of his lawyers trumpeting this as a possible defense. whether he chooses to raise this going further is another matter entirely. but again i think this is one of those sort of claims that gets made overblown and over trumpeted, that again, is typical, for the former president and those around him. >> john, there is so much news out there. politico is reporting

and syndicated radio host hugh hewitt, panel, welcome. >> thank you. hi, mike. >> lead us off.ite house insisting it as an official speech and not a campaign speech. >> you know, mike, i think threats to our democracy abound and, you know, january 6th is a pretty obvious example. there are plenty of examples on the other side of the aisle. and if you want to be a real leader at a time when this country needs a unifier, then you would point out, many of us consider progressive prosecutors who can undo a legislative act by themselves to be a threat to democracy. many of us consider presidents who sign or issue executive orders that they know violate the constitution to be a threat to democracy. the other thing that caught my attention is the president's definition of a good republican is one that agrees with him. over landfall the country doesn't agree with him on most of his policies. so how can that be the definition of a good republican that you could work and agree with joe biden. >> mike: leslie, here we are. it is labor day weekend, typically speech taken some heat for it,

syndicated radio host hugh hewitt and white house correspondent for reuters, jeff youngest. always hanging above us. >> it is interesting, the politics at the presidential level, this is not a presidential year but there is a possibility biden and desantis could potentially be rivals in the 2024 election. today they both seemed to set that aside and president biden's remarks at fema, he talked about having spoken to the governor four or five times, the governor complemented him, the federal government response, and he also said this is not about politics, so it was interesting to see him setting that aside, and apparently the governor setting that aside, as well. in the state, yeah, those ads are still playing and there's a lot riding on them. >> bret: let's focus on the midterms, senator mitch mcconnell about senate chances. >> in every election, every year, this year, past years, it is great to have terrific candidates. we are in a bunch of close races. i think we have a 50/50 shot of getting the senate back. it is going to be really, really close either way, in my view. >

here is what trump just told hugh hewitt a spew days ago. >> did you take those papers down there afterifying them innocentliy? or did you have any idea they were there? >> remember this, everything was declassified. >> but here we are, stephanie. and the judge is saying, well, there's no evidence of it, so sorry. what do you expect trump is doing right now? >> well, i expect that he's probably yelling at whoever suggested judge dearie. because i imagine that he thought this would be a person who would just do whatever their side was hoping for. i've got to say it's interesting to me that the whole -- you know, you can't have your cake and eat it too because that is honestly just how trump thinks. he's going to double down, double down, double down. so it's going to be interesting to see how this all plays out. i imagine that they are going to, if i know donald trump, he's going to tell them to lean into the fact that they were declassified. i know he has said that he had told cash patel that they were declassified. but i think it's important for just your viewers, the country, to under

. >> we heard from the former president, i believe on hugh hewitt show, about blanket declassificationfy all these documents at my residence at mar-a-lago. that's how we imagine it happening. let's take a listen to what he had to say. we don't actually have the sound. we know what he said. do we have it now, mike? we have it. let's play it. >> mr. patel said he witnessed you giving verbal orders to declassify the papers that ended up at mar-a-lago. do you remember making those orders? >> that's correct. not only that, i think it was other people also were there. i have the absolute right to declassify. a president has that absolute right. a lot of people aren't even challenging that anymore. >> what i find so curious is none of the filings from the former president's attorneys include this defense of this blanket declassification. i'll go on to read from "the washington post" saying, in a filing in response to the doj request on monday, trump's lawyers suggestively cast doubt on whether the documents are actually classified. they repeatedly used skeptical quotation marks around the phr

in fact, just last week, trump told conservative radio host hugh hewitt that if he is indicted over his theft and mishandling of classified documents, the nation would face, quote, problems in this country the likes of which perhaps we have never seen before. meanwhile, republicans are silent because even though he's not in office, trump and trumpism have metastasized throughout the republican party like a cancer. so much so that republicans running for office this november are taking a page directly out of his playbook. "the washington post" reports that out of 19 of the most closely watched state-wide races in the country, a dozen republican candidates have declined to say whether they would accept the results of the elections that they are competing in. joining me is will bunch, syndicated columnist for the philadelphia inquirer and author of "after the ivory tower falls" and david corn, washington bureau chief for mother jones and author of the new book "american psychosis." thank you both for being here, and will, since you're at the disadvantage of not sitting here at the desk wit

hewitt is about 06:30am, in the morning. file past the queen's coffin. she will lie in rest there until 6.30, monday morning around 11 that morning. her funeral will begin with a procession from westminster hall to westminster abbey. >> heads of state celebrities are among those who have come to pay respects to the queen over the last week. earlier today, the queen's grandchildren observed a vigil at her side. lauren lister has more from london. >> hi there. world leaders are arriving in the uk for the queen's funeral as some people here in london are waiting as long as 24 hours for a chance to see the late monarch lying in state. all the queen's grandchildren surrounding or cough and im paying ceremonial tribute for 15 minutes of silence. the king sons, princes william and harry in full military uniform. and the miles long line of mourners waiting to personally pay respects to the queen surprise visit from king charles, along with prince william greeting members of the public as they waited. >> among those recently going th

donald trump did an interview with hugh hewitt yesterday. listen. >> mr. patel said he witnessed you giving verbal orders to declassify the documents that ended up on mar-a-lago. do you remember making those orders? >> yes. not only that, i have the absolute right to declassify. a president has that absolute right and a lot of people aren't even challenging that anymore. >> does anyone challenge a sitting president has a right to declassify? >> no. >> that the a moot issue because we're talking about a former president here. he says that kash patel witnessed him declassifying and others did too. but the lawyers, they're not making that case in court, are they? >> no. because they didn't execute the process. say hypothetically the president in the presence of kash patel and a few other people did say i want to declassify everything. great. he can say that. if nobody executed that, told the agency original nating the information this was decl declassified there's still documents out there that are still classified and you can't retroactively do it. a former

he was on with hugh hewitt in which he said if these investigations, any one of them, leads to indictmentere will be big problems in this country. let's listen. >> i'm just asking if there is such a prosecutor and they indict you, would that deter you from running for president again? >> i don't think the people of the united states would stand for it. and as you know, if a thing like that happened, i would have no prohibition against running. you know that. >> that's what i want people to understand. that would not take you out of the arena. >> it would not. i think if it happened, i think you would have problems in this country the likes of which perhaps we have never seen before. i don't think the people of the united states would stand for it. >> what kind of problems, mr. president? >> i think they would have big problems, big problems. i don't think they would stand for it. >> big problems, hugh followed up and asked, are you inciting? people would say you're inciting violence. he said it's just an opinion. what are you hearing there? >> i hear it's january 6th all over again. you k

> i want to turn to something we heard from former president trump yesterday when he was on hugh hewitt's show and he was asked what happens if you were indicted. >> if it happened, i think that you would have problems in this country the likes of which perhaps we've never seen before. i don't think that the people of united states would stand for it. >> what kind of problems? >> i think you'd have big problems. big problems. >> sounds like about what we were herr hearing from him befo january 6. >> what senator lindsey graham said was even worse when he talked about possible riots in the streets. this independent review by the judiciary hopefully will bring around public opinion. that is what we need. but ultimately the attorney general will not be influenced by those types of threats and we should all distance ourselves from threats. >> so you see those as threats? >> well, lindsey graham said you will see rioting in the streets if there is a charge brought. >> what about what we heard from the former president? >> words which people who are inclined to be dangerous will interpret as th

speaking of donald trump's comments, take a listen to something that the former president told hugh hewitt about what might happen if he were ultimately indicted. >> if it happened, i think you would have problems in this country the likes of which perhaps we've never seen before. i don't think the people of the united states would stand for it. >> what kind of problems, mr. president? >> i think you'd have big problems. big problems. >> how do you interpret those remarks? >> well, they're concerning. they remind me of the comments made leading up to the riot on january 6th. i'm sure the ex-president is well aware the impact his words have on those who are adherents to him. i've noticed that on his web page, he is increasingly re-quoting and re-posting things from qanon. so i think -- i worry and i would guess he understands that this could incite individuals to violence and i would hope that he would curb those types of comments. certainly, he's aware of what his comments led to on january 6th. there's some evidence it was his desired outcome. let's hope that's the desired outcome this ti

. >> meanwhile, we have, donald trump made some comments to hugh hewitt that were quite eerie, sayinge were indicted. what's your sense how worried a message like that plays? >> i think there's real concern, certainly in washington law enforcement about the effect of donald trump ginning up people like that. it's why i think the constitutional issues with the mike pence going before the committee are what they are. it's up to them if they want to go on television and do sort of minute by minute of what happened that day and what they saw that day. if you don't want to deal with the constitutional issues around a subpoena there are other options available to you. >> identity from actor diego luna. we'll be right back. ht back. ne!

you know, trump went on the "hugh hewitt" show and claimed that he declassified the documents, even as's listen to that. >> mr. patel said he witnessed you giving verbal orders to declassify the papers that ended up at mar-a-lago. do you remember making those orders? >> that's correct, and not only that, i think it was other people also were there. but i have the absolute right to declassify, absolute. a president has that absolute right, and a lot of people aren't challenging that anymore. >> can you give us an absolute fact check on this? >> three quick things, jim. one, the president does have very broad authority to declassify. two, there is zero evidence that donald trump did exercise that authority when he was president. three, there is quite a bit of counter evidence that he never did actually declassify including the 18 or so public officials who served under trump who told cnn they never heard of any such thing, and it's an outright fabrication. >> all right. thank you so much. great to see you. appreciate it. >>> tomorrow night jake tapper goes one on one with key conditionse
