starting with senator marsha blackburn and senator ted cruz later in the show. have my eye on money making investment themes. i have my eye on my favorite market watchers coming up. all that and much more on "making money." ♪. president trump: i shut down talks two days ago because they weren't working out. after that, we got back, both sides very capable. we got back, we started talk again. we're talking about airlines and bigger deal than airlines. we're talking about a deal with $1200 per person. charles: well those stimulus comments by president trump helping boost the market today until nancy pelosi said there will be no airline help without a bigger bill but talk needs to translate into action between both sides that has to happen fast before something, certainly before the election. so what is going to happen? i will bring in now tennessee republican senator marsha blackburn. senator blackburn, we heard, we had a great lively interview with president trump this morning on our network. it is pretty clear he wants to get something done and something done im

ted cruz?ing -- he was wearing a big texas mask. i think it was ted cruz. i think we were just looking at him seated. >> reporter: yeah, we'll double check because earlier we had heard he wasn't coming and some of the republican lawmakers. one big question is the vice president mike pence going to come since he did not go to preside over that event -- >> sorry. i think that's ted cruz if i'm not wrong, yeah, that is ted cruz, so he did show up. kaitlan, i appreciate it. thanks very much. >>> as all of this has been happening, the conservatives on the supreme court have issued a new decision on mail-in voting deadlines in wisconsin. five conservatives say t-- last week in a similar case involving pennsylvania's deadline, roberts sided with the liberals on the court. here with his analysis is a cnn election law analyst and constitutional law professor at nyu. he's also a former clerk for justice thurgood marshall. wisconsin obviously a key battleground state. how significant is this, and why is t

ted cruz was on earlier.is after we just talked about governor huckabee suggested focus on the economy, pocketbook issues. ted cruz was saying don't make this about hunter biden. make it about joe biden earlier on our program. listen. >> this whole issue is not about hunter biden. hunter biden by all appearances has led a very challenged life. this is about joe biden who wants to be president of the united states and whether joe biden was personally corrupt. >> sandra: how do you expect president trump to approach this story on the debate stage, katie? >> we've seen in a number of rallies the president has done this week and last he will approach this issue by calling joe biden a corrupt politician who has been in washington, d.c. for far too long. ted cruz is right. this isn't necessarily just about hunter biden. this is about hunter biden working with his father allegedly while he was vice president selling influence unqualified for positions he was being paid for. if joe biden was willing to do these thing

here's the author of "one vote away," senator ted cruz. how do you quantify between the 99% of media in the tank for joe biden and all things democrat socialists and now big tech won't even publish from the fifth largest newspaper in the country a story that is negative to the bidens. >> it's extraordinary and it's getting worse. the media hates the president. many mainstream outlets have lost it in their loathing. big tech we have seen a pattern of them censoring conservatives and silencing views they don't like. last week was a pivotal moment with big tech. what they did with the "new york post" articles, they have never done before. there were two back-to-back block buster stories on two consecutive days. one alleging information about joe biden's corruption with the ukraine and the second alleging information about joe biden's corruption with communist china. twitter and facebook prohib hitted anyone from learning about that. -- you would get blocked and get a warning saying this information is potentially parmful. -- harmful. it was o

that was beto o'rourke during his challenge to ted cruz in 2018. those are incredible numbers.n last year's uk general election, let's have a look. all political parties received a total of $40 million in donations. that is in total. what did they spend it on both here and what it is spent on over there? well, here they spent it ona over there? well, here they spent it on a lot of television advertising. but, remember, it doesn't guarantee you a victory. we all know what happened to be too o'rourke. he won all of that money he was the darling for the moment and he didn't win because it's very difficult for a democrat to win in texas. well, guess what? it's also very average

like i play baseball and yet-- and then he debated ted cruz and he crushed him, i mean, he humiliated him in the insane that ted cruz is like literally below donald trump at the time and you know there are 22000 people laughing and screaming with him. it's not done in a vacuum. and so i had the sense that you know when we are talking about the party as a whole that he's holding the rallies are way of-- they are-- they are all about power and they are this mechanism by which he dangles people in front of the crowd and he says i can give this to you. i can give you 22000 people, but i can take it away. is mine to take it away and it reached a crescendo in new hampshire, my last rally whenever sony people, i mean, this whole court in this memory of you know some description of his court and you know so just trying to think back on the gop has a whole like now kind of wrenching them back into his own into that even more of that place of fantasy and make-believe. >> cohead. >> sorry to reappear in interrupt. it's just that we have about 15 minutes left and i wanted to make sure we have tim

trump got elected because i don't think ted cruz would have had the backbone to stand up to the media and stand up to the democrats and be able to build everything that his administration has done and i'm proud to be supporting president drop and i'm working my butt off to make sure he gets reelected in november. just like so many other republicans he's going to be like a good lawyer let me you go over the cliff with donald trump is obviously pursued my policy but i want if the what if he would have if he would have been pro-choice i wouldn't support him if he would have been for open borders i wouldn't support it if your have been for higher taxes i wouldn't supported a problem it is i believe in these values and the president actually did them i'm not going to do that and anybody that actually can have a debate about all right good i wanted that but. the books this program is was the future of the republican party supporter completely room. republicans are headed to or overwhelming defeat millions of americans and hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of republican leaders like myself

i was a delegate to the national convention to support ted cruz. having said that i thank god that donald trump got elected because i don't think ted cruz would have had the backbone to stand up to the media and stand up to the democrats will be able to build everything that he had ministration done and i'm proud to be supporting president drop and i'm working my butt off to make sure we get reelected in november ok you know ted just like so many other republicans he's going to be like a good lawyer letting him go over the cliff with donald trump it obviously pursues my policy but i want if you let me what it was or if he would have been pro-choice i wouldn't support it if he would have been for open borders i wouldn't support it if you would have been your crack in it i would have supported problem and i believe in the values and the president actually did that i'm not going to do it and said what he did actually could be delayed by khalid right now i don't want it but i think that it's going to make the folks this program this was the future of t

the secret society that mike lee and ted cruz and jimmy wright are members of the federalist society has one goal, to destroy and annihilate trade unions. this case was decided in 1936. it was ruled unconstitutional, then came back to the court after roosevelt threatened to pack the court and two justices, charles evan hughes and owen roberts flipped, they changed their opinions and all of a sudden we got our constitutional right to form labor unions. when people watch today, i want people to ask jimmy wright, what is the federalist society. i want them to ask ted cruz and mike lee the same question, senator whitehouse pointed out yesterday it is about our rights being finally taking away from us. if you want to go back to the jungle, to the law of the streets, we in organized labor are willing to do that. >> supporting the nominee is kim in california. tell us why. i am sorry, go ahead. you are on the air. >> she is absolutely wonderful. if you listen to the last man that called, the federalist society is an organization of conservative attorneys, democrats have their own organizati

and yet they debated ted cruz and question him and humiliated him and cruises literally below time on - - donald trump at the time 42000 people laughing and screaming. and so i have a sense when you talk about the party as a whole the rallies are all about power and a mechanism by which he gained rules people in front of the crowd and says i can give those to you. i give you 22000 people that i can take it away also. and then to reach a crescendo in new hampshire without the last rally there were so many people. with this memory with the description of the court and then just trying to think back on the gop as a whole is now pushing them back even into the place serve fantasy and make-believe. >> i started to interrupt but i was fascinated. we have 15 minutes left and went to make sure we have time for audience q&a. so the first one from sarah. >> what will happen to people's primary goal tied to a particular person if they are no longer the leader? to the redirect to a new leader or go somewhere else? so it becomes a no space showed biden win? >> that is the million-dollar question.

which obviously has much different trends in terms of what gets highest engagement it's interesting ted cruzyears ago was decrying what he called new york values, today praising the "new york post" as something founded by alexander hamilton. >> it's interesting, because cruz actually said that of those three companies, he thinks facebook is the one that is at least making an effort around free speech. but he did warn, ted cruz warned that he was going to be going after twitter in a tweet he tweeted about the fact that this was going to be a showdown between him and jack dorsey and it did not disappoint in terms of his specific attacks on dorsey for being partisan in the types of content it pulled down. what's been interesting interest this is despite all of the other issues going on, i think twitter has been more in the cross hairs and i think it has really come down to that "new york post" article about hunter biden and the question about which types of content twitter decides to flag and the content they choose not to flag. >> absolutely. we'll see to what degree the other two executives s

that is something ted cruz has said, he's been in contact with lindsey graham. they will do whatever it takes to get this moving. democrats have said there is no procedure to stop this. host: this is alex bolton of the hill. morning,a story this when it comes to looking at joe biden and chuck schumer in the senate and what might happen if the democrats win the white house and the senate. could you talk about this? one of the big stories coming out of the confirmation hearings is you calling for dine feinstein to step down as a top democrat of the committee. it's a preview of the headaches that biden and schumer will face if they do win. if democrats take back the senate, if biden's president, there are expectations. forhave groups gunning dianne feinstein after she at the end of the hearing, praise lindsey graham for his leadership. was what 25 years ago it was not so remarkable. the committee has been wracked by acrimony going back to brett kavanaugh and before. after she did that, you had groups calling for her head. that democratic activists and some of these

. >> i saw ted cruz noticed the posters being put outside. in this time of pandemic, we have a lot less politics you would normally see in the halls of congress or outside the capitol. what have you observed? >> it's interesting, the capitol complex is still closed, no visitors or protesters here. the kavanaugh confirmation, the gorsuch confirmation, you had huge crowds in the hallways, disruptions in the room sometimes. none that have is here. you can see the room is far more empty than it normally is. you heard cruz mention a little bit of a heated back and forth with durbin, there aren't a lot of people in the room because there is a pandemic going on and a lot of people go back to their offices to watch when they're not speaking. there are protests outside of the building, we had something 20 to 25 protesters get arrested on the first morning of the hearings. but it's been nothing like the kavanaugh confirmation hearings where protests were as much a part of the hearings themselves as anything else that was happening in the room. >> garre

this is ted cruz going after jack dorsey who, by the way, was so arrogant.rogant and condescending and lied? >> yes. lou: i'm told we don't have it yet, so let's turn, if we may, to biden story. what do you think will be the impact? >> oh, i think -- lou: what do you think will be the impact? >> the impact of hunter biden, i think, is going to be quite huge. i know that the mainstream media's trying to avoid this story, but there's no way to avoid the fact that there needs to be a criminal investigation. and this is the reason why we have seen such failures both in the fbi and in the department of justice. we really need criminal investigations and criminal probes into this. look at what they did to the trump administration, going after members of the campaign in 2016 for foreign agent registration act violations when hunter biden never even filled out a fara in recent years and was working with the ukrainians as well as the chinese government. so i think there's going to be a lot more in the near future. lou: sara carter, as always, great to have you with u

but the senators, particularly ted cruz, he was having none of it. it just looks as if the social media platforms are -- they are not putting a fixer on the scale they're putting their entire foot on the scale to try to help joe biden win. when they had these guys in the hot seat, even though it was remote via distance. they got a grilling. particularly from ted cruz. watch this. >> twitter has he the ability to influence elections? >> no. we are one part of a spectrum of communication channels that people have. >> twitter, when it silences people, when it censored people, when it blocks political speech that has no impact on elections? >> people have choice of other communication channels. >> not if they don't hear information. mr. doors quoorks who the hell elected you and put new charge of what the media are allowed to report and what the american people are allowed to hear and why do you persist in behaving as a democratic super pac silencing view us to the contrary of your political beliefs. >> we are not doing that. this is why i opened this he

mike, because i want a recording of you reacting to ted cruz, here is what ted cruz said to axios earlier today. your response on the other side. >> one of biden's best points was when he said all of these attacks back and forth about my family and his family, they don't matter. what matters is your family. that may have been biden's best moment, actually. and i -- >> so you don't believe voters are moved by the hunter biden stuff? >> i don't think it moves a single voter. >> so mike, interesting quote there from ted cruz, aka, mr. popularity in the u.s. senate. do you agree with the republican from texas? >> yeah, i think somebody must have slipped a little truth serum into the martini there because he's absolutely right. again, most people think hunter is the ceiling fan. this election is about big stuff like the covid pandemic and uniting the country, so i think that's a pretty astute observation by senator cruz. and i'm not used to those, so i'll give him a salute. >> so james carville, by my clock it is 11:34:30 seconds and at this time on election night what will be talking about? >

we talked about texas senator ted cruz.k at him and watch him criticize twitter ceo jack dorsey for censoring the hunter biden story. >> mr. dorsey, who the hell elected you and put you in charge of what the media are allowed to report and what the american people are allowed to hear? elizabeth: okay. so is this as far as it goes? finger wagging and scolding? is that it? i hate to, i hate to be cynical, elizabeth, that is how i feel about it. jack dorsey there is looking so scary, in san francisco where i am, even homeless person might cross the street to avoid that but in real life he is laughing all the way to the bank because he gets to do whatever he wants. he is absolutely putting his finger on the scale. he is preventing the public from seeing the number one i think biggest scandal in the country today, is what tucker carlson aired last night with tony bobulinski and that is not trending on twitter which is a total lie. almost 8 million people saw that on the sister network. that is direct election suppression. by the

ted cruz knows something about texas. he wouldn't have won his sort of tea party primary over the establishment person there back in the day if he didn't and he wouldn't stay in office if he didn't and he's nervous and he's already telegraphing this for whatever his reasons are. take a listen to ted cruz talking to axios about why, basically, some of the last minute attacks on biden are working and why they see motivation in the trump opposition. >> so you don't believe voters have moved by the hunter biden stuff? >> i don't think it moves a single voter. it's turnout election but my assessment of turnout is the left is showing up no matter what. that those who hate trump will cruel ov crawl over broken glass to vote against him. >> he's absolutely right. they tried to do hunter biden. they tried to make that with the emails. it didn't work. instead of an attack, people saw a father and a son. they simply saw joe biden's empathy exposed and unconditional love and that's something donald trump will never be able to have. a
