president biden with his attorney general merrick garland saying, quote he quote, should never have picked. this is never going to f-ing, go away. he didn't say effing, how biden spoke about it in public, which seems a little different. this is from june going to do anything. i sat i said i'd tried by the jury decision. i will do that. and i will not pardon him. >> so a little bit different than the frustration he voiced in private. >> yeah. look, i mean, it's not surprising that i think there would be some frustration by the president with all the part of the justice department and perhaps even with with merrick garland. but i got to tell you, i mean, i think biden knew what he was getting when he chose merrick garland, when he made the announcement on january 7 of 2021 that he had chosen this man in the whole purpose was to get a politicized, politicize the justice department to get someone who would absolutely be separated from the white house. and that's what he got right. and so it's hard to i know there's a lot of people around the president that are particularly more ferocious in th

now, nancy pelosi and kamala harris and merrick garland thought they were going to do two things. number one, they were going to shut down the war room and not have that as a voice for the grassroots movement of maga many this country and number two, break me. i think you can see today i'm far from broken. i've been empowered by my four months at danbury federal prison. why was i empowered? because i was able to listen, to observe, and to learn from working class minorities, young african-american men and hispanic men. and yes, puerto rican men, about what their lives are and what the queen of mass incarcerations, which is what they believe that kamala harris is. she has refused as border czar to begin any mass deportations of illegal alien or illegal migrant criminals in this country. and today, president trump with the angel moms actually had to say we need to a form of restitution to reimburse these folks. kamala harris, vice president harris, the bodder czar, has refused to do that and continue on to mass incarcerations. now, president trump and quite frankly with the visionar

now we come to today, and i'm finally out of being a political prisoner by the merrick garland, kamala harris, nancy pelosi regime. ok? for standing up for my political beliefs against the illegitimate committee in the house that did not have a ranking member and did not have minority counsel. i went to a federal prison for four months. now, nancy pelosi and kamala harris and merrick garland thought they were going to do two things, number one, they were going to shut down the war room and not have that as a voice for the grassroots movements of maga in this country, and number two, break me. as you can see today i am far from broken. i have been empowered by my four months at danbury federal prison. why am i empowered? because i was able to listen, to observe, and to learn from working-class minorities, young african-american men and hispanic men, and yes, puerto rican men, about what their lives are and what the queen of mass incarcerations, which is what they believe, that kamala harris is. she refuses and she has refused as border czar to commence any mass deportations of a legal a

i mean, does merrick garland have to answer for that? it's so basic. we should obviously all be able to come together, regardless of partisan alignment and say people should only be allowed to vote if they are legally allowed to vote. i guess the department of justice doesn't agree with that. >> harris: some democrats don't agree with that. the mayor here promising people who come across the border legally or illegally will be able to vote. i did not know your connections to the commonwealth as well as that was also helpful. ben, always good to see you. thank you for joining me. former president trump and vice president kamala harris are both campaigning today in the critical blue wall state of michigan. we call it a blue wall. she has to win it to win. some experts say trump seems to have the edge there. plus trump leading among catholic voters according to the polls. it probably won't help the vice president she skipped last night's al smith catholic charity dinner in new york city. a huge traditional bipartisan event. we have not seen one or the oth

because merrick garland is going after the president's son. so i mean, there are examples where this department of justice is going against the white house in a way that refutes the argument you're making. >> cassie, i mean, we were 22 days to election, but let's talk about hunter biden. the only reason why the department of justice actually went after hunter biden, the way they've done is because they were exposed for letting so many of hunter's criminal charges lapse by statute of limitations because they were covering up for hunter for biden and joe biden. so once that once that was exposed by the oversight committee, which i sit on then the department of justice had no choice but to reverse course. that's the facts, congressman. >> let's let's turn back to the election before i let you go, i want to ask you about black men in particular, president obama was on the campaign trail at talking trying to talk to black men. now you've got kamala harris going out there sitting down with media outlets where she's clearly trying to reach black men.

anthony coley former adviser to attorney general merrick garland, who also worked on several democraticabout the polls. there are so many it's like confetti. which poll you want to talk about? >> my phone has been ringing off the hook. i'm telling people this. "pollercoaster." get off the "pollercoaster." in 2016 and 2020 it was a tight race. hillary clinton and her campaign against him, she had won roughly one percentage point in those battlegrounds states. pennsylvania, wisconsin, michigan. she will, she would have won. >> she did win the popular vote. >> 2020, 44,000 votes in wisconsin, arizona, and georgia. democrats don't want to hear it, but donald trump would be president today. so i give you that data point just as proof every time donald trump is on the ballot it is a margin of error race. kamala harris has always said from the very beginning of this that she is an underdog. and people just didn't believe her. they just thought that she was political posturing, doing all that stuff, but no, she is an underdog. >> is she doing everything she needs to do? keep reading these like

the fact it took merrick garland to take action against donald trump which was ultimately leaving it smith. the fact he is slow to do anything does embolden these people to feel they are existing in a separate plane of justice. >> one of those people has been steve bannon. a rich person who thinks he lives outside the law. he has been in jail and gets out tomorrow. you know this man. you have interviewed him. he has seven days to go. what is he capable of? >> i have -- he has a post jail press conference. hopefully he showers. he is going to feel embolden and use this moment to rally and galvanize the people that listen to his podcast, the war room. he will continue to advance lies. it's not a man who gets out tomorrow and is like, i've learned my lesson. i have seen the error of my ways. that is not it. he will be rallying the storm troopers tomorrow. i think it's a real threat. >> we will be watching. thank you both so much. tim will be there in his canadian tech sedo. >>> for more than three decades, the washington post made a presidential endorsement but this year they are sittin

merrick garland is all in he could have and should have ordered smith delay any court filings until afterhe election instead smith went out of order bringing his anti trump campaign advertisement, because that's what it is, and judge tanya chutkan let him get away with it. she's cheering him on. it's shameful sean. >> sean: when we come back jimmy failla reacts kamala harris's cringe pre taped skit at last night's al smith durn. it was bad. plus a seemingly taped conversation between barack obama and joe biden goes viral. hmm. what were they talking about. was it kamala? i retouched all my wedding photos, and it was even affecting my health. i trusted you because you specialize in dental implants. you created a permanent solution and customized my teeth so it still felt like me. my new teeth have improved my life and changed my future. - thank you. - you're so welcome. finance the smile you want for as low as one forty eight a month per arch. schedule a free consultation. from the first day of kindergarten through the day they graduate high school, in california, 38% of students attend a

of course, merrick garland is the attorney-general but that's under the executive branch.yers have the sitting president say that in the middle of a case going on, cases, i think there's some problems right there. >> lawrence, look, you could send a low key signal to the head of your doj and i would argue biden did that when in "the new york times" he said he was tired of merrick garland acting like a ponderous judge. also notably in july, there were "lock him up" chants. biden didn't silence that. my favorite part of this story, a former biden aide noting that this is not helpful to kamala harris and saying, maybe we got to lock joe up. then a current biden aide saying no one listens to him anymore. a current biden aide. as my dad says, he's a lame duck before lame duck season. and that's not good. >> i think one of the main reasons joe biden won the first time was the early voting, all the different moves that were needed during the pandemic or not needed taken advantage of, pick your poison. now early voting is part of what america does. unless they're going to rein it

and the fact that it took merrick garland so long to take any action against donald trump, which was it off to jack smith, but the fact that he is so slow to do anything really does embolden these people to feel like they're just existing in a separate plane of justice. >> one of those people has been steve bannon, a very rich person who thinks he lives outside the law. but alas, he's been in jail. he gets out tomorrow. you know this man. you've interviewed him. he'll have seven days to go. what do you think he's capable of in the next seven days? >> we're going to see him tomorrow. he's going to have a little press conference after he gets out of jail. a post-jail press conference. hopefully he showers before that. he's going to feel emboldened. he's going to use this moment to rally and galvanize the people that listen to his well listened to podcast, the war room. is going to continue to advance lies. this is not going to be a man who gets out of jail tomorrow and he's like, i've learned my lesson, i've seen the error of my ways. that's not it. he's going to be rallying the storm

attorney general merrick garland said that sentence was a warning that violence against those who serve the public and their families will not be tolerated. today, in the state case, his legal team is expected to ask the judge for a new trial. our legal analyst says that if the judge denies that request, the case will continue on to sentencing. david depape will have an opportunity to perhaps show remorse to the court and to the pelosi family, which will be critical for him in any future court dealings. that will be very important if he is trying to get out on parole at a later date. he needs to express remorse and show that he understands the magnitude of what he did to mr. pelosi and his family, and to america. now, while long federal and state sentences might seem redundant, our legal analyst adds that they serve as a safety net in the event that something does change in the case on appeal. already, depapes legal team said they will appeal the state case, saying depapes conviction on state and federal charges amounts to double jeopardy. and because the case weighed so heavily on depa

he considers his denial of merrick garland his proudest achievement based on your reporting.ocrats see that as the height of partisan obstructionism that damaged the legitimacy of the court. michael: that's the debate. the thing is that what it was was a blunt force use of his power. there really was not a clear precedent for that and somewhat argue there was no precedent, but he could do it some plea because he could because in the senate, he only needed to have a majority of the votes to do it. he did it and he rammed it through and he was criticized for that and that is a big part of his legacy. he looks at it as the greatest thing he ever did. others think he undermined the institution of the court and undermined the faith of the court in the process. geoff: you spoke with justice alito as you were reporting out this book. what did he say? michael: he agrees that mcconnell steered the court in the right direction and it was interesting to me that he actually refers to it as the mcconnell court, not the trump court. geoff: let's talk about january 6, because after the riot

donald trump could fire jack smith, the special counsel, who was appointed a to this rule by merrick garland. so he's not technically part of the justice department. what he could do is hire his own attorney general, which of course he would and then try to get rid of the cases because against him, particularly the ones that were brought by the department of justice one of the reasons why this is so critical because it shows you how he would use the power of the presidency. remember number one of the things that he and his team have talked about doing if he does when is to expand the powers of judicial branch of the excuse me, the executive branch that would include the department of justice. now of course, it's not just jack smith that he's going after he's also lashing out at john kelly after his remarks yesterday, he posted this on truth social saying kelly made up a story out of pure trump derangement syndrome, hatred. john kelly is a lowlife and a bad general. this coming after john kelly said that he did they believe that donald trump is a fascist untold stories about donald trump sayi
