Leadership of the city of baltimore. The president says his office is being inundated by baltimore citizens thanking him for exposing their citys corruption. I think im helping myself because im pointing out the tremendous corruption thats taking place in baltimore and other democratic. Run cities. All you to do is look at the past mayors in baltimore, see what happened. I think im helping myself. And i tell you what, the white house and myself in letters, email and phone calls have received more phone calls than i the on any other subject of people from baltimore and other cities corruptly run by democrats thanking me for getting involved. Those people are living in hell in baltimore. Theyre largely africanamerican, you have a large africanamerican population and they really appreciate what tham what im dd they let me know it. Lou how tough is the situation in baltimore . For example, well be taking up owe examples here tonight. Baltimore has the highest murder rate among all major american cities. Senator Lindsey GrahamsJudiciary Committee hasnt done much since he took over the committee but hes pushing ahead with a gift to the biggest corporate lobbyist in this country. The business round table, the chamber of commerce, Koch Brothers, big tech. Hes pushing ahead and doing his masters bidding all at the expense of american taxpayers and american working men and women. Senate bill 386, its already passed in the house as hr1044. It would remove green card limits on workers from other countries. What that means is that big countries like india and china, and there are no big ner terms of population, will be packing the green card lines with as many h1 brrks vis1 works visa wt they like able to take u. S. Jobs at significantly lower pay. A real blow to the american dream. Take a look at these Top Ten Companies that sponsor h1b visas. Of them only five are based on inkopt corporated in the United States. Three others incorporated in india. And sources at u. S. Citizenship and Immigration Services say if country caps are scrapped, as is the intent of the senate 386, indian citizens will be taking about 90 of the employment green cards for the next decade or more. They currently take about a fourth of those cards every year. Far more than any other country. Also troubling for the middle class and american working men and women, the center for immigration studies, Jessica Vaughn tells us, quote, no one, no one is sending the indian hb1 vie visa workers home even after their visa visas exp. Congress took care of that with endless extensions. This is a dream for cheap foreign labor and their employers and it is a nightmare for American Workers, our middle class and for the nation. Senate intel chairman doing his part saying hell work swiftly to begin the confirmation process for the president s choice, John Radcliffe, to be the next director of national intelligence. But burr, one of the most frustrating rinos among many in the senate also reportedly has warned the white house that radcliffe might be too partisan. Senator burr, how dumb can one possibly be . He apparently missed the radical dimms threeyearlong effort to block President Trumps candidacy, to overthrow his presidency and radcliffe was one of the few republicans who stood up against the corrupt and miserably stupid radical dimms who opposed the president at every turn still. For instance, Senate Minority leader chum schumer had the gal to spew this nonis sens nonsenst is quote that representative radcliffe was select the because hes exiebted Blind Loyalty to President Trump. If there is a demagogue in the senate, it is certainly led by chuck schumer. The party of hate is eating its own as a result of complaints about diversity at the Democratic Congressional campaign committee. Last night several senior Staff Members resigned, including their communications director, political director and of course their diversity director. Also cbs calling former univision anchor Maria Salinas out of retirement to be a news contributor after the National HispanicMedia Coalition recently called for a boycott of cbs for not hiring any latino onair talent. Joining us tonight, rnc chairwoman Ronna Mcdaniel. Weve got a lot to have cover. Lets start with the battle of baltimore. You can see all of the little daffodils that plafly the rinos in the senate and the house as he took on the Oversight Committee chair, Elijah Cummings criticizing baltimore. What do you think now after watching this unfold . I think the president is exactly right, calling out democrats who represent these districts with people in great distress, with crime rates going up, with their Education System failing. And hes saying, you know what . Youre so worried about the people at the border, giving Free Health Care to Illegal Immigrants, why dont you focus on the people in your own district who are suffering. I lived in baltimore and my home was robbed twice. I now live in michigan near detroit. We have a mayor thats now in jail. We have blight in our city. We ar have a corrupt government thats under investigation for taking 200 million in medical funds to remove blight. We have got to start tackling the problems in the inner cities run by the democrats and go to the voters saying you have a different choice now. You can come to the republicans. Were going to golf problems for you instead of the lip service that you continually get from the democratic leaders. Lou its a great opportunity. And the president sought that opportunity in 2016 famously saying what have you got to lose. You can still hear the passion in his slois a voice as he was g africanamerican voters to give him a chance. And where are they today . Even in baltimore, the Unemployment Rate has moved down to historic lows as a result of this president , his policies, his concern as he articulated it in the campaign of 2016 for all americans. He said he would deliver. Hes done so. Yeah. And criminal justice reform. And Economic Opportunities zones. And the things that hes done with hbc and wages are up. This is a president that has delivered for the Africanamerican Community. And hes saying you deserve better from your leaders. And theyre more concerned in the Democrat Party about illegals, giving them Free Health Care than they are about their own districts and the issues happening in our country and the citizens in districts like baltimore that are dealing with crime, the highest murder rate per capita in the whole country. They deserve better and the president is makin calling it o. Lou it is the highest murder rate amongst the Iron Triangle latin america. Yeah. Lou it is stunning to think how bad things are in baltimore. Youve got, i mean, some moronic responses suggesting hell, calling this president a racist because he actually cares more about the Living Conditions of baltimores citizens than do the people responsible directly, whether its the mayor, whether its the seventh district congressman, in this case Elijah Cummings. It is scunning tha stunning thae horrid reflex of the radical dimms. They have become the party of hate. But to hate your own constituents as they have in each of these cities. The federal government sent almost 16 billion. This administration sent 16 billion to the city of baltimore last and to the district last year. 16 billion. And every four years, like clock work, democrats pull out the racist label for republicans. They do it to every candidate. Lou thats fine. If theyre going to do it, do it. Now we have a record and we can go to the Africanamerican Community and say, isnt it time for a change . Isnt it time for somebody who actually gets it. President trump when he was a candidate campaigned in detroit and went to places that republicans never go. Take a chance on me. Now he has deliverables. Democrats go into these communities, stoke Racial Division and then dont deliver for the people they serve. Its time for a change. Lou it is time for a change. Its well past time for a change. But you know the power structure in those inner cities will do everything they can to block you, the Republican Party, to block even the president of the United States. And i listen to urban radio and i hear the hate thats being spewed by their hosts talking about, you know, racism. And they really dont care if theres a fact in it. They dont its just mindless, the stuff that is being spewed. And theres going to have to be a strategy here, ronna. The president says he doesnt have a strategy and i believe him. He just wants to tell the truth and he really wants every american to share in this prosperity that he has done so much to create. What is the Republican Party going to do to get shoulder to shoulder, face to face with minorities in this country, whether it be the inner city minorities, whether it be across the country, wherever it may be, and those who need help in this country, what are you guys going to do this time differently . Well, as you know, lou, the Mainstream Media is never going to share this successes of this administration. Lou right. From an rnc perspective, he have built the largest ground game in history. Were going one on one to the voters and talking to africanamerican voters and his hispanic voaforts sharinhishisp. Jobs are coming back. When we are have these conversations neighbor to neighbor, knocking doors, telling them the truth of whats happening under this administration, well undercut the media that wants to share this negative narrative that this is a racist president , nothing has been done for you. They know its true because their paychecks are bigger, their families are doing better, their lives are better because of this president. And thats how were going to win this election. And under President Trump were already in the field. Lou how do you think most inner city mino minorities, particulay africanamericans, its going to take a lot of courage to step forward and say im going to vote republican, to acknowledge this president s successes, acknowledge that in this country this very moment africanamerican Unemployment Rates are at their lowest in history. How do you get by that . President trump is such a great messenger. You know, in 2016 when he said he said it in michigan what the heck do you have to lose. All of these leaders have made these promises lou im asking what are you going to do to overcome who is an orthodoxy that is so powerful and so supported by all of the institutions of the inner city, whether it be the church, whether it be the city council. Yes. Lou yes. Were setting up shop in those districts. Talking to those people one on one and were not going to walk away. Part of it is showing up. People have voted demeanor all of thai their lives. They havent been presented with the republicans. A man showed up saying i voted for President Trump because what the heck did i have to lose. What he is saying about baltimore right now is bringing a spotlight on the fact that the media and the democrats arent paying attention to whats happening in these urban communities and President Trump is. And thats the message thats getting out. And i think its resonating with a lot of voters who think they deserve better. Lou well, without question every american deserves better. Ronna mcdaniel, thanks so much. Thanks for having me. Lou new word tonight. More rockets launched from north korea. Whats going on . We take it up with asia expert gordon chang.

Consumer confidence at the highest level since november. Consumer spending up 4. 3 analyzed rate in the second quarter. The fastest pace in almost two years. Home prices up more than 3 . Major cities like las vegas, phoenix, tampa posting some of the biggest gains this year. Well joining me now, former Reagan White House political director, leading republican strategist, fox business political analyst, ed rollins who i never interrupt. Ever ever. Lets start with this economy. This is it just keeps going and going. And its going to get better. When the rates get cut, my sense is this is a long term thing. This has been trumps program from start to finish. And unfortunately hes not getting all of the credit he should be getting for this. Lou Ronna Mcdaniel said that too, ed. I think to hell with the credit. I really do. People understand this is cause and effect. There is a relationship between the person you put in the white house and the direction of the country. And its a bright, positive, strong direction. Well you dont have to go back far to see a failed economy, which is the president that was here before. Lou and the one before that. The one before that. I think its trumps great strength. As you say, i think most people realize that its not just a short term, its a longterm fix. Lou what they want to do is see that their lives are better than before the election of 2016. Theyre seeing it. Almost without exception. And are you better off than four years ago . You bet your. Why would you ever want to go back. Lou especially with these folks theyre parading from the radical dimms. As they want to do is spend more money and add for federal programs, not necessarily benefiting the working guy or gal. But the reality is thats what the campaign has to be about and thats what the president has to sell. Lou indcLindsey Graham. I cant figure out whats going on. Hes don done so little since hs been there now just about seven month as ennow hes going to outstowrs american jobs, push h1b visas, going to serve corporate round table, the koch brother, tom donahue, the chamber of commerce and big tech. Buy american, hire american. Theyre all one in the same. I dont care lou who is all the same . The chamber, Koch Brothers, all of them have the same goal wob to get cheap workers from foreign countries. They dont want americans to have the hightech jobs and they dont think theyre qualified. Lou screw them. This president is about turning that around. How is it he gets through the house, 39 republicans step forward to join in the vote. Its outrageous whats happening. And Lindsey Graham and rand paul. He has to say the bill comes to me, im going to veto it. And he has to start vetoing these things making it clear this is not what i promised, this not what the merp public wants. Lou what damn fool would think that they you know anyway. The problem, as weve talked, the critical things on immigration is you secure the border. We havent come close to that. You dont let the business lou hes winning so much. The Supreme Court says build the balwall now. Nine justices well actually five are building the what chant for build the wall. Six potential. And as weve talked, once you get the wall secure, two years from now what have you, then you can talk about Immigration Reform and you dont give up the thing that the Business Community wants. Lou you dont have to talk about it. Because the first thing is if you dont secure the border, you will never control immigration and everything you do and say after that is a joke. He has to secure that border. Well the first step then is lou hes, by the way, making amazing strides, whether it be the third safe country policeman with guatemala. We dont know whats going on with mexico but so far theyve been cooperative. Were seeing real progress. The problem is were also seeing more Illegal Immigrants cross the damn border than a year ago. Sure. Its still a porous border in spite of all of the efforts of the department of Homeland Security. The reality is they get their people through. The president has to veto this bill. If this bill gets to the senate and he signs it, then i think hes hurt himself badly. Lou as always, ed great to see you. Thanks for being here. I didnt interrupt you once, did i . I dont think so. Violence continues in the Mexican Border city of tijuana. In a 24hour period over the past weekend 20 people were murdered because of cartel driven violence putting the number of tijuana murders more than 1200 so far this year. Think of that. 1200 in just about half a year, despite heavy military, federal police intervention, tijuana has had more troops open policemen on the streets an theyre killing at a record rate one of the highest murder rates in all of the world. Up nects, President Trumps latest warning to china as trade talks have resume in shanghai. Well have the latest on that. Much more right after these quick messages. What happens next. Stay with us. Liberty mutual customizes your car insurance, lou breaking news now. President trump warning china not to wait until after the 2020 election to strike a trade deal with the United States. I think if china has their wish, they would wait until after the election. Theyll pray that trump loses and then theyll make a deal with somebody who doesnt know what theyre doing, like obama and biden, like all of the president s before. Because what theyve done is theyve just picke picked. Thats not happening with trump. Lou the president s warning coming as mnuchin and Robert Lighthizer are in shanghai. Today the talks continue through tomorrow. Join us tomorrow. Well be joined by Michael Pillsbury to take up the latest developments. South koreas joint chiefs of staff announcing that north korea has fired multiple missiles off its east coast. This launch coming six days after north korea fired two new shortrange Ballistic Missiles into the sea of japan since 2011. Kim has larged four Nuclear Weapons and tested four Nuclear Weapons and fired more than 90 missiles. Joining me now, gordon chang. Your thoughts first on what to make of the reason for what appears to be, again, more missiles, short range or otherwise fired by north korea in the course of a week. Well, when it comes to china and north korea, there are almost no coincidences. We know that the trade talks in shanghai are not going well for the chinese. I wouldnt be surprised if these launches r are really a plan accords nateed by beijing. Theyre going to try to get concessions on trade. The chinese that done this many times in the past and with President Trump it does not seem to be working with them. Lou seem to be . It isnt working. Hes told them to go about their business if this is the best they can do, because its not acceptable to him. Yeah. You know, that threepart tweet today, you know, was really refreshing. Nobody talk to the chinese like that. Nobody except for a guy named donald john trump. The chinese need to hear not only what he said but the way that he said it. This is a change in the way the United States deals with china and its a change long time coming. Its a really good thing today, lou. Lou and you know who really needs to hear this . The business round table, the chamber of commerce, the Koch Brothers, wall street, big tech who have sold out this country, whether they like that direct language or not, that is the truth of what theyve done. And they persist in it and they would give everything for this president to say, you know what . I really wish Hillary Clinton were here. What do you guys think . I mean, its ridiculous what theyre doing. And it is evil. It is evil that they would do this to our country, as they have over the course of the past 20 years. Yeah, for far too long youve had the elites in this country really align their interest with people in beijing and not with the American Worker, not with the small business, not with the United States of america. Under this president were seeing a change. And thats important. Because, you know, for the quites, wevUnited States, wevo defend our society and thank god we have somebody doing it now. Lou we do. And we have a senate yo judiciay chairman by the name of Lindsey Graham who is trying to sell out, again, the American Worker, sell out to wheap cove cheap ovr and the companies that exploit them, whether it be deloitte. Its absurd what the American Worker has to contend with. This president vowed buy american, hire american. And then Lindsey Graham is pushing this bill after the republicans, 30someodd of them went along with the bill in the house and passed it. This is outrageous. It really has been the American Worker last. And thats why youve had these communities across the country devastated. And thats why we have an opioid crisis. There is just no hope in some of these towns. And so to put americans to work is job one. And whatever it takes, lou, we got to do it. Lou ed rollins said the president should veto this period if they pass it. I think hes right. Your thoughts. Absolutely. As both of you said, you got to secure the borders, make sure the American Worker is protected and youve got to do all of these things. Including preventing legislation which is not going to help americans. Lou yeah. Its incredible to see rand paul and all of these phony bologna rinos in the senate fall in line with the Koch Brothers and the chamber of commerce and wall street and tell the American People to go straight to hell. This president is all about getting it done. Hes a man of action. And the action required is to tell all of those senators and all of those congressmen who would sell out the American Worker please go to hell. You dont have to say please, but it would be nice. Gordon, thanks so much. Wed like to hear your thoughts on all of this, share your comments. Follow me on twitter loudobbs. Up next, President Trump working to rein in the Intelligence Community. Former acting u. S. Attorney general mat whitaker joined me after the break. Well take that up and much more right after the break. Stay with us. Just tease it a li. Lou californias governor gachn newsom signed a bill requiring the president to release his tax returns five years of them before he could appear on the states 2020 primary ballot. In a statement the Trump Campaign spokesman called the move quote unconstitutional. California is more involved in more than 40 lawsuits challenging various Trump Administration policies. You get the feeling that the California Democratic empire doesnt like our president. Well joining me now were former acting u. S. Attorney general matthew whitaker. Great to have you here. Thanks for having me. Lou first of all, i got to get your lawyerly counsel. Can a state do that and get away with it . Its unconstitutional. Governor moon beam or jerry brown wouldnt sign that bill because he knew it was unconstitutional. But youre in the cry disi ninth circuit, in my experience as doj and attorney general and chief of staff, we fought ridiculous battles in the ninth circuit only to win them in the Supreme Court. The trial courts in california are going to be difficult. The ninth circuit is going to be difficult. But this on its face is unconstitutional and theres in way it survives. If i was the president i would not worry about this california bill. Lou lets turn to what we have to worry about. And thats a couple of special counsel investigations ledd ledy the attorney general william barr. Your thoughts about this man and what he faces in the way of challenges to clean up a corrupt fbi leadership and corrupt Justice Department leadership. So the good news is some of those people are gone. Mccabe is gone, comey is gone, baker, the chief of staff. All of these people have been rotated out. Chris wray is taking charge. I dont think hes moving as quickly as some would want. Lou put me on that list of people. I understand. But at the same time bill barr is the perfect person to do the cleanse of the Intelligence Community. The president has given him so really Good Authority to go in and find out sort of how the Intelligence Community was used. If you remember barr, before he was the attorney general, he was on the Oversight Board of the Intelligence Community. So he understands this game and i think hes the perfect person to do it. And now that my friend John Radcliffe is going to be nominated, he and i were u. S. Attorneys together, very excited about the opportunity that he has to go into the national Intelligence Community. And i think hes not only going to be fair and impartial but i think hes the right person to lead and to take those organizations in the right direction. Lou and speaking of intelligence, the Senate IntelligenceCommittee Chair richard burr coming out and saying that basically he has some questions about how partisan radcliffe would be at dni. This is after weve watched the democrats try to overthrow a presidency, try to block the trump candidacy for the office. I mean, what in the world is wrong with that guy . Well, i mean, listen. I think burr has come out and said that he will help john get confirmed. And i think some these news reports i never trust anonymous sources. Its usually somebody thats lost the fight and then they want to burn a bridge or otherwise get their point of view out. I think ultimately John Radcliffe is going to do what he did as u. S. Attorney in a new role at dni and that is to put any partisanship to the side and to lead with great honor and integrity. Lou were watching speaking of honor and integrity, john solomon who has been at the forefront of the reporting as you well know on spygate in all of its various forms. Chris wray appears to be trying to cover up for james comey and to cover up, for example, suing to block the release of documents that are frankly that contain mostly information that has been in the clear. Absolutely open sources. Yeah. So those thats a very interesting lawsuit. And i think, you know, oftentimes youre are trying to protect your methods or sources or if you receive some intelligence from a foreign intelligence source. But in this case it doesnt appear to meet those qualifications. And the good news i hate to say this because sometimes we want it to be immediate. But a court will probably take that and review it in camera, a see what the arguments are and made a good decision. You have the right to appeal. Ultimately the information will get out. We need more transparency and accountability. Some of these challenges once we have that will be able to restore the integrity and the peoples belief in the department of justice and the fbi. Because i know its there. I know the men and women at the fbi and doj and the rank and file are solid and trying to do the right thing. So with the right leadership i know that we can get over this hill and get to a better place. Lou well, im not going to ask you a question about whether or not wray represents rank leadership. Im just going to say that if we see continued efforts to on ze h the american publics right to know on behalf of the officials were going to be in a hell of a mess. I will be one of the people that will speak out on this. I believe that the American People are entitled to a full accounting and transparency so that we make sure this never happens again to another president , that this type of investigation is launched against him. Lou Matt Whitaker within delight to talk with you. All the best. Disney is setting a new record surpassing 7. 6 billion in global ticket sales just july now isnt it .

I think the Washington Post is the russian asset by comparison. Mitch mcconnell loves our country. Mitch mcconnell is a man that knows less about russia and russia influence than even donald trump and i know nothing. Lou well, joining us tonight, patrice, senior policy analyst at the independent womens forum. Great to have you with us. Thank you for having me. Lou Washington Post clearly a russian asset or not . I would hope not, but they certainly are using a narrative to try to paint senator mcconnell that way. And we have to understand there is a reason why. Last weeks em bar razzin embag testimony of Robert Mueller left egg on the faces of a lot in the media and on the left. Theyre looking for a scapegoat. Senator mcconnell is not up for reelection. Why not go after him. Paint the failure election meddling on him. Lou its interesting to me. Because and this is being done, i think, in partial jest at least by the president. But i think theres a point here. And that is the Washington Post is serving the interest of the russian president far more than any figure, in my. , far more than any figure in elected politics. The Washington Post is attacking this president relentlessly, baselessly and chronically. You see seven, eight stories, often most of them on the front page of the Washington Post that are just simply an exercise in venal attack. Well, its true. And theyre joined by a couple of other outlets that, you know, we can certainly name. They come to mind. But you know, they were hoping, honestly, that the russians did meddle and change the Election Results in 2016. That simply did not happen. And they put all of their weight into the Mueller Investigation and boy oh boy again, they found out they were wrong. So theyre looking for someone to put the blame on. And you know what . I think this idea that we should federalize or nationalize our election process is the wrong way to go about doing it. It sounds like theyre trying to protect our electoral system but its not. Its taking that power out of the hands of the states to our well capable of protecting their systems. Lou they are. And already the department of Homeland Security has significant responsibilities to assure the integrity of our electoral system and support for the states and the communities and all of the jurisdictions responsible for elections. I do think that it would be very significant if the president , if Mitch Mcconnell were to come together to say this is what were doing to assure that our elections are not permitting people who are not citizens to register and to vote. Yes. Lou what are they doing to protect and to prevent russians and iranians and chinese and others now who surely are encouraged to intervene in our elections. I think that would be wonderful. And it could be bipartisan. Bring schumer, bring pelosi into the effort because surely they should join the effort. But this is, to me right now, a country that is witnessing a Democratic Party that has devolved into the party of hate. Calling the president a racist because he criticized the poverty, the violence, the filth that the residents of baltimore have to live in. And the people responsible for those people, whether it be the local government, the mayor or the seventh district congressman, Elijah Cummings doing almost nothing about it. This is all a strategy, lou. Its like when a steupt has not prepared for the exam, they pull the fire alarm by calling the president racist, its a fire alarm that theyre pulling hoping that black people and people of kol lo will look away from the good work thats being done by the Trump Administration. I mean we always hear about the historically low Unemployment Rates for blacks which is fantastic. But were also seeing the narrowing of the racial gap between blacks and whites in terms of unemployment. Were seeing, because of the act, bipartisan criminal justice reform. Black men being released. And because of Second Chances theyre getting a second chance. Lou led by this administration. By this administration, signed by President Trump with his support min behind it. These are the good things happening. Opportunity zones. This is the good stuff that democrats and frankly those on the left want to distract from. So whats a better distraction than to play the race card, call it racist and then peoples anger gets boiling. Lou i think the race card is a very tattered and tired and faded card. At least i sure hope so. Patrice, thanks so much. Always great to see you. Stay with us, were coming right back. Let me ask you something. Can the past help you write the future . Can you feel calm in the eye of a storm . Can you do more with less . Can you raise the bar while reducing your footprint .
