amy: house judiciary committee chair jerrold nadler said he may seek to hold lewandowski in contempt of congress over his refusal to answer the committee's questions. ahead of the hearing, lewandowski used the twitter hashtag #senate2020 to hint that he'll seek the republican nomination to challenge new hampshire democrat jeanne shaheen next year. he later tweeted out a formal announcement of his candidacy after asking for a five-minute recess. in new mexico, president trump falsely declared at a campaign rally monday that latinos support his border wall, proclaiming, "we love our hispanics." during the rally in rio rancho, trump pointed to steve cortes, a former paid on-air contributor at cnn and member ofof trump's 2020 campaign committee. pres. trump: he happens to be hispanic. he happens to be hispanic, that i've never quite figured it out because he looks more like a wasp than i do. more. loves the hispanics who do you like more, the

the jerrold nadler does time and time again, and they did it partly in this situation is they ask for information the president has executive privilege on. it's the same claim that barack obama claimed believe me i've wanted to get this before the committee to talk about that iran deal. i invited them to testify before the oversight committee. he was in the new yorker, he was giving public speeches. certainly he has time to do all of the media and public speeches he can talk to congress about this. it was a separation of powers issue and i dropped it. the difference now is cummings and nadler will issue a subpoena to see that they do not comply. they don't win because that is going to come after the next election. they want to create a narrative if we issued 250 subpoenas and they never responded. he went before the colleagues on the democrat side of the aisle have said i'm better to pursue the impeachment. come with me and i'm going to do in impeachment. what is the path forward. >> you come and listen to the meeting and you are bummed out like a feel-good meeting of the year try to

lou: it's stunning what the left is doing, the commitment when we watch jerrold nadler and adam schiffad with the efforts to subvert this administration. it is -- this is more than a blood sport. it is a vicious absolutely committed group ideologically, the democratic party to the destruction of everyone in their way. >> well, what's interesting about it, lou, is it is that, but it's also -- what they have decided to do is we have a legitimately elected president under the constitution. they have never accepted the result. they have used governmental power, subpoena power in an abusive vindictive way. they have embarrassed the house of representatives, the committee system. they continue to do it. and they are -- what they are doing is undermining constitutional government. they're not trying to save the government. they're trying to destroy the government because they cannot stand that donald trump won and hilary clinton lost. it's -- what they are doing is unconstitutional. lou: why is there no -- there's no fire in the belly as it seems of any republican, certainly in this town, you

the clerk: resolution for investigative procedures offered by chairman jerrold nadler. committee issued multiple discovery requests to individuals with potential information relative to its investigation into the alleged obstruction of justice, public corruption, and other abuses of power by president trump, his associates, and members of his administration. whereas special counsel robert mueller's report released on april 18, 2019, found that the russian government interfered- mr. nadler: without objection, the resolution is considered as read and open for amendment at any point. i will begin by recognizing myself for an opening statement. the resolution before us represents the necessary next step in our investigation of corruption, obstruction, and abuse of power. this committee has already covered the central findings of the special counsel's investigation. the president's 2016 campaign asks for and received the assistance of the russian government. key figures from the campaign then lied to federal investigators about it. the special counsel found that at least 10

lou: the radical dimms want to build an inquisition with jerrold nadler. we'll be taking up the latest developments expected to occur tomorrow including vice president mike pence and my interview with him. be sure to tune in for the conversation, 7:00 p.m. eastern. president trump takes on the globalist elite. >> wise leaders always put the good of their own people and their own country first. the future does not belong to globalists. the future belongs to patriots. lou: the president delivering a message to those open border advocates and activists. pushing illegal immigrants into the u.s. has become a high-paying proposition for them. but not so much a good idea for the rest of working america. we'll have that and much more right after the break. stay with us. ♪ limu emu & doug hour 36 in the stakeout. as soon as the homeowners arrive, we'll inform them that liberty mutual customizes home insurance, so they'll only pay for what they need. your turn to keep watch, limu. wake me up if you see anything.

[laughter] [applause] you listen to jerrold nadler or maybe not.[laughter] you listen to him, chairman of the committee, he goes on, won't go on my shows that goes on msnbc, cnn, wherever she goes on and on the president has committed crimes, the president obstructed justice -- wait a minute here, he's a congressman that runs a committee, has committed crimes. was there a trial that i missed, was there a sentencing that i missed? just because a prosecutor writes a report doesn't mean that the president has committed anything. and he waves around the constitution. you just violated the fourth amendment, fifth amendment, sixth and 14th and u. were wavinyou werewaving around the n of the united states. the president of the united states then it's almost like a freak show then you have nancy pelosi -- [laughter] who says she wants him in prison.

. >>> amendment offered, to a resolution to investigate procedures offered by chairman j jerrold nadler, replace with legislation attempting to obstruct justice and 1512 c-2. as those allegations, the office of special counsel did not draw ultimate conclusions and they did not conclude that the president committed a crime and never the less. >> the gentleman will -- is recognized to explain his amendment. >> thank you, mr. chairman. mr. chairman, most of the members of this committee are lawyers or previously -- >> the gentleman will suspend. the gentle lady will not insist of a point of order. the gentleman will proceed. >> thank you. most of the members of this committee are lawyers or previously in law enforcement. because of that, we should act like lawyers because we're the judiciary committee, we should seek justice and because we represent the american people, we should be fair. for these reasons, our committee has an obligation to use legal terms correctly. my amendment clarifies the language in the second clause of the resolution to ensure it uses proper legal terminology and a

how is that different from what her committee chairman, jerrold nadler did just ten days ago?that they are going forward with an impeachment inquiry. as a matter of law and constitutional activity, the question tonight is, has anything really changed? is this an action or is this merely a gesture? my sense about it is that it's merely a gesture. she has continued to protect vulnerable members of her caucus from having to vote by going forward on impeachment. she just announced it. now, they might have to defend that, but they can go forward and say, "i didn't vote for this." the president is willing to put all the stuff out. it may not lead anywhere. i think we may be able to surmise something about that as well. some of our colleagues in the media might be looking at themselves a little funny. >> tucker: yeah, i think they are beyond that. [laughs] >> brit: that's too much to hope for part dominic? >> tucker: it's way too much. in 15 seconds, is that enough for aoc and the squad, do you think? >> brit: i don't think anything is enough for aoc and the squad, who is literally i

likely be subpoenas and we understand it will all be funneled through the judiciary chairman jerrold nadler and at some point he and speaker pelosi will have a conversation about whether they have enough to impeach the sitting president. brett. >> bret: that will be a fascinating conversation indeed, mike emmanuel live on the hill. thanks. president trump is tonight facing what could be the most serious threat to his presidency, at least in the eyes of democrats. john roberts up here in new york covering all of this today. we are supposed to be focused on the united nations, a lot of different focus today. >> you didn't think were actually going to focus on the united nations. >> bret: 's every day for you. >> it is. we call this tuesday in my world. president trump has beaten back talking impeachment by saying it's politically unpopular. say how do you impeach a president who has helped create the best economy in the history of this nation and he continued on that offense today. >> it's just a continuation of the witch hunt. it's the worst witch hunt in political history. >> at the united

and that's hard for me to imagine it if the possibility of impeachment especially referring to jerrold nadlerler, that won't be exactly what happens. but it made me lose some time off. >> charles: britt, stand by if you would. let's get the latest capitol hill. mike emanuel joins us from the there. >> we been showing our viewers the senate floor and there has been some action on the senate floor, a sense of the resolution on might finding that it was passed by unanimous consent. that says that this complaint that was received by the intelligence community is an inspector general on august 12 should be transmitted immediately to the intelligence committee and the united states senate. that's worth noting that the intelligence committee on the senate side of the capital has been very cooperative working in bipartisan fashion on all these investigations over the last several years. so senate democratic leader chuck schumer basically wanted to put all of republicans on the record, the republican majority, whether or not they want to this report to be sent over to the intelligence community to be

committee chair jerrold nadler said future inquiries would look beyond the findings of the mueller report. >> have responsibility to consider allegations of election crimes, violations of the constitution's emoluments clause , and the failure to defend our nation from current and future attacks by foreign adversaries. amy: democrats remain divided over whether to even call the judiciary committee's expanded powers of investigation an impeachment inquiry. on thursday, democratic house speaker nancy pelolosi abruptly ended d her weekly press conference after a reporter asked whether the house is conducting a formal inquiry, refusing to answer the question. mexico's foreign minister marcelo ebrard said thursday his nation will not change its immigration policies after the u.s. supreme court allowed the trump administration's ban on most migrants seeking asylum at the u.s.-mexico border to take effect. >> the mexican government's position has been that we are not going to accept that. we consulted with the mexican senate and they will not accepted it, either. amy: this comes as tens of thousa

lewandowski was on the hot seat with the house judiciary committee, and the experience left chairman jerrold nadlerstrated. >> i've been asked several times today whether the committee will hold you in contempt. that is certainly under consideration. there is a far more troubling level of contempt on display today, and that's president trump's role in your refusal to answer a question. >> lewandowski confirmed that president trump asked him to pressure jeff sessions about the robert mueller probe, but said the president never asked them to do anything illegal. lewandowski says he did not relay the message because he went on vacation with his children to the beach. it was quite a showdown. >> are you the hit man, the bagman, the look out, or all of the above? >> i think i'm the good-lookig men, actually. >> you don't think it was illegal to just? >> part of the democrats frustration as they were not able to hear from two former white house aides, rick dearborn and rob porter, who were directed by the white house not to appear. so they were left with two empty chairs and a feisty corey lewandowski. h

watched in the house nancy pelosi simultaneously saying we're not going to do an impeachment and jerrold nadleran impeachment investigation that was not authorized by the house, which it should be, and nancy pelosi say i'm not going to talk about this anymore. they have a wing of their party that can't stand the president. they're sort of foaming at the mouth, and the image of the democratic party going into the election is not one of here are the things we stand for. it's we're the anti-trump party. so you have a roaring economy, as max said and an anti-trump party because they can't help themselves. >> but mike, do you -- do you see any sliding of the president's popularity among groups that were wildly popular for him before based on sort of this idea of just sort of sick of the chaos? >> i think people get sick of politics in general. and, look, people are sick of the chaos in washington. they don't like it, and the democrats now own a lot of that chaos in washington. but the thing you have to remember about approval ratings is we don't have a referendum. we have a binary choice election. a

i think a big reason why so many democrats going, getting so far over their skis, people like jerrold nadlerthat, for two years, they along with a lot of people in the press pedaled these lies about russia that were completely unsubstantiated. no reason, no good editor would have allowed any of those stories to make it into print. i never had an editor would have allowed that stuff to get into print. it got in,t was hate trump, hate trump, hate trump. so it was all permissible. david: now there is big internal battle at "the new york times" apparently. we'll see how it works out. i think it is overplayed in the press there is internal battle. >> both sides of that internal battle are on the same side. david: exactly, that is what i meant. charlie hurt, great to see you, still winning, is the name of the book. we hope it is winning at bookstores. thanks for being here. >> >> top executives of facebook, twitter, google are testifying on capitol hill how they plan to stop hate and extremism online. how are they defining extremism on line? we have details coming next. >>> former trump campaign m

jerrold nadler has done nothing but preach impeachment.sidentledge, the hasn't been found guilty of anything to be impeached on. i realize now they are investigating the ukraine, but they have already judged him. said pelosi has already that she is going to impeach him. the transcript hasn't even been released yet. i really don't understand how can make- how people such narrowminded decisions. they are not worried about the governmental issues anymore. it is whether they like president trump or they don't. i have you the truth, been an independent all my life and i have never voted for a party before. i have always voted for the person, always looks at the platform, always went by what i felt was best for our country. but after the way the democrats never,sponded, i would ever vote democrat again. burke on twitter saying to chill on the talk about articles of impeachment, saying it is just a formal inquiry now. the house is not drawing up the articles of impeachment. jackie saying, i can't stand another second of seeing his face in the med
