lou: yeah.cause you certainly have -- this is a president who has been so wronged by the radical dems, and that is the democratic party that has become the party of hate, there has to be a response. i'm unclear in my own mind as to what it should be and which would a assure the greatest punishment for their assault and insult to the american people, to this president, to our way of life. i do think though that your talk about commercials, i mean, i can see a lot of commercials running now that are going to feature the radical dems. the godfather of impeachment, al green himself, today making it very clear no limit to the number of times that dems will try to impeachment he's already -- it was not enough for him to be first with impeachment -- [laughter] he's thinking about how many more times it can go forward -- >> and we need him to keep going, because that is what's turning off the american people. just look at the polling over the last couple of weeks. the polling has turned against impeachm

lou: good evening. president trump energetically rallying enthusiastic supporters in battle creek, michigan and around the country for that matter last night. the democratic party did wait has done for the past three years. the radical dimms and the leftist media concocted more bizarre and sinister narratives. speaker pelosi declared she would hold up articles of impeachment the dimms had passed within senator mitch mcconnell declared nancy pelosi would be afraid to send the shoddy articles to the senate. how did vestors react to this dire political theater? by moving to new heights in the house of representatives in the midst of it all, also passed president trump's usmca, the new trade agreement with canada and mexico. $1.3 trillion worth. in the midst of the political turmoil, the radical dimms' turmoil for three years, president trump delivered one of his campaign promise. to balance and make reciprocal u.s. trade. and with nancy pelosi refusing to deliver the articles of impeachment to the senate,

lou: so let's not try.months until march 15 of next year. that's both parties deciding to do that just as we are learning more about the rancid courts and the way in which they are conducting themselves and the way in which the fbi, the justice department and others are abusing them. we are joined by miranda divine. great to have you here. let's start with horowitz and his report. you are thoughts about it and its up port. >> all day i have been getting emails from people telling me they have been reading "the washington post" and "new york times" and horowitz vindicated comey and the fbi and so on. you would have to be deaf, dumb and blind to think that. i watched horowitz yesterday, and i read the report. and it's shopping and damning. lou: he made it very clear he was not exonerating anyone tied to the process. >> he said there is no bias in the opening of the investigation. obviously lisa page and peter strzok were biased. and he said they were unseemly. but he said the decision to open the investigatio

lou: three lies. the launch of the investigation into president trump set off years of investigations that engulfed the entire trump presidency. president trump reacted at his rally in pennsylvania. >> they spied on our campaign. the inspector general found the fbi's spying application contains 17 error and omissions commonly known as lies and deceit. when the fbi uncovered evidence showing that we did absolutely nothing wrong, they hid it so nobody could see it so they could keep this hoax going on for two years. lou: the culmination of those efforts and what appears at the very least to be a conspiracy to overthrow the president took place this hour on capitol hill. the house judiciary committee holding its first mark-up session on the two articles of impeachment brought against president trump by the radical dimms in the house. our first guest tonight, he bolsters the trump administration's impeachment strategy every day. joining us, special advisor to president trump. former treasury spokesman, to

lou: very trumpian.he origins of his motivation to be president, your thoughts on that and what you reveal in the book. >> this was fascinating for me. at one point we went round and around. they were nothing like what bill o'reilly said happened at the wait house correspondents dinner. but he finally at one point, we were talking about business. he said, you know, you buy a business that's poorly run. and then you sell it after you made it better. you never buy a business that's well run because you will lose money. he said. i ran for president after two terrible presidents. so he's thinking bush and obama, i'm going to follow them, it's time to run. >> he has a great point. these were the two of worse presidents i believe in this country's history, both bumbling. i know you served one of them. but this country was in terrible shape when the president was elected. i don't think there are many men or women. i don't think anyone could have done a better job than he has stepping in to do all he could again

lou: i'm sure.two-week charges for the impeachment -- two weak charges for the impeachment inquiry. and the usmca trade deal, and it's bringing clarity to the u.s.-china trade relations. >> i think -- i don't know why people thought trump had a bad week. lou: who said that? >> i heard it a lot because of the impeachment. and the fact horowitz didn't recommend criminal referrals for people who deserved them. if you look at the totality, we are making progress with china. nobody is talking about trump appeasing russia. if anything he has been tougher than any president since reagan on russia. then we have a trade deal in north america. when you look at impeachment, we are not talking about quid pro quo. there was bribery then there was treason. now there are no high crimes or misdemeanors at all. it's obstruction of congress, you can put anything under that rubric that you wish. horowitz' report was not supported on motive by his own evidence. you can see the reaction to it where the democrats are now

[♪] lou: good evening, everybody.he swamp mostly clear tonight of radical dimms who have previously focused on just overthrowing the president the last two months. congress at home. the president took the time to slam the dems and tout his successes sab calling out house speaker nancy pelosi or slow walking a major trade deal that would benefit millions of americans, canadians and members cans. he also told the american people to enjoy the stock market. all three major stock indexes hit new record highs. the president highlighting his support for the men and women of our military. he was asked if he disparaged the because of his removal richard spencer and lieutenant colonel alexander vindman. >> there has been then a president who would stick up for them and has like i have, including the fact we spent $2.5 trillion on rebuilding our armed forces. you let sergeant bergdahl go, you let others go, including a young gentlemen now a person who president obama let go who stole tremendous amounts of classified information.

lou: a theme. lou: it's called unity. in the senate, the theme is, we'll have to wait and see. >> we appreciate you for doing so. joe, thank you very much. joe digenova. i will say it another 10 times. new documents reveal the extent top pentagon officials took to repeatedly mislead the public about the still ongoing 18-year war in afghanistan. the government report is entitled lessons learned. it examined the root failures of the war, the expenditure of drills of american dollars. only thanks to "the washington post" is this report available to the american public. most of the names omitted in separate reports. with the same name, "the washington post" obtained the interviews with a three-year legal battle. able to point to comments from top military officials. we'll go blow by blow to this report because everyone is paying attention to impeachment farces and all of the nonsense. what is really interesting about all of this, those trillions of dollars are still hiding every one of those mistakes from the american public.

lou: al green precedes him.oved at al green suggesting such an outrageous radical thing from the floor of the house. here we are. they are living up to the worst expectations one could imagine going into this. the trump campaign pulling access from bloomberg after mike blook bloomberg announces his news organization will not investigate democrats and certainly himself, only republicans which is of course the president has to be honored that only he will be investigated. he should be used to that. your thoughts? >> i think it was the obvious natural and right thing to do. you can't and news organization that claims to be objective when you have one set of rules for one set of candidates, all of the democrats where you say we are not going to do investigative journalism against all of these democrats. but we'll investigate donald trump. lou: judicial watch president tom fitton earlier on this broadcast questioned whether republicans should even show up for tomorrow's judiciary committee hearing. >> you can have al

lou: a disgrace.resident trump with new ammunition against the radical left and their political theatrics and efforts to absolutely overthrow this president. in an under view with "time" magazine ukrainian president zelensky reiterated saying quote i never talked to the president from the position of a quid pro quo. i don't want to us look like beggars. but you have to understand we are at war. if you are our strategic partner, you can't go blocking anything for us. it's about fairness. it's not a quid pro quo. it goes without saying. perhaps jerry nadler and nancy pelosi will think about impeaching zelensky who will not follow their narrative and in fact undercut their efforts to overthrow this president. president trump used the ukrainians comments 0 shine light on the dimms' lack of evidence. president trump: the ukrainian president said strongly that president trump did absolutely nothing wrong. it should be over. but he came out and said president trump did absolutely nothing wrong. and that shou

that's when lou changed from jolly lou to here's business lou. >> reporter: the man they all looked up lou pearlman taking overall from what 'n sync was making? >> i still don't know the answer to that question. >> do you know that it's more than 20%? >> i know it is more than 65%. >> lou sued us for our name. he was the sixth member of the group, and he owned the name 'n sync. that's why we ended up in court. >> reporter: they reached an agreement, both bands ousting him as manager, but he walked away with settlements that continued to provide an income. >> when 'n sync breaks their contract, they celebrate with their album "no strings attached." >> it had 1000% to do with lou. we were in a cab in london, talking about the next record, and i said, you know, there's no strings attached anymore, and jc goes, i'm going to write a song about that. >> reporter: pearlman wanted to stay in the game, so he tried to recreate the boy band magic again, this time with make being the band which first aired on abc. >> it went from how the members were selected to eventually them signing their recor

lou: he did divulge them.t was within his power and responsibility not release it is an extraordinary abuse of his power and your first amendment rights. >> when the fbi does phone records, they have special procedures for journalists, clergy and attorneys. when you have attorneys involved tonight and the fbi involved, it's shameful. this a good constitutional issue here, and i'm looking with my lawyers to examine potential remedies here. lou: good, and i think as the saying goes, the sooner the better. the doubts about the giuliani office calls, the inspector general coming forward with his report, the long awaited. we must take note that we are now waiting for inspector horowitz for months on end every time he prepares a report. it is in my opinion derelict on his part. it's presumptuous on his part to think the american people should have to endure this type of nonsense. now we are being told through careful leaks, given great signals that there will be disappointment aplenty in his conclusion. >> i don't b

lou: it's incredible. by the way the fbi, the justice department and various intelligence agencies will come to suggest they have to have those courts -- it's unbelievable what we are putting up with in this corrupt system and we really have to put in and two. i want to turn to speak into corruption, the radical dems in their efforts to overthrow this president. the president today wrote a beautiful letter, a terrific letter to nancy pelosi which she responded to saying it was ridiculous. in point of fact, it was elegant, it was comprehensive and it put her in the radical dems who have attacked this president mercilessly for over three years and precisely where they should be. and that is in the focus of history for decades to come. >> i hope everybody has a chance to read the letter, i thought the president really pointed out the flaws and the arguments, i think the president was absolutely right, i'm glad that he didn't and i know you know this but i want to remind people at home, i think what nancy pelo
