China virus pandemic, heightened security concerns in the Nations Capital as well. And over the course of 70 minutes, President Trump went through his unprecedented and historic accomplishments of his historic first term in office. President trump reminded voters as well that there is much, much more to be done, more battles for him to fight and to win for the American People. Together we have ended the rule of the failed Political Class are, and they are desperate to get their power back by any means necessary. Youve seen that. They are angry at me because instead of putting them first, i very simply said america first. [cheers and applause] so tonight i say to all americans, this is the most important election in the history of our country. There has never been such a difference between two parties or two individuals in ideology, philosophy or vision than there is right now. Our opponents believe that america is a depraved nation. We want our sons and daughters to know the truth, america is the greatest and most exceptional nation in the history of the world. [applause] lou the president also lit into his opponent, china joe biden. The president mentioned biden by name, in fact, some 40 times. Law and order featuring, well, featured prominently throughout the final evening of the Republican National convention, and President Trump himself made it clear americans can choose four more years of his law and order policies and and enforcement or joe biden who will side with rioters and marxists. Your vote will decide whether we protect lawabiding americans or whether we give free reign to violent agitators and criminals who threaten our citizens. And this election will decide whether we will defend the american way of life or when we will allow a radical movement to completely dismantle and destroy it. If joe biden doesnt have the strength to stand up to wildeyed marxists like Bernie Sanders and his fellow radicals, then how is he ever going to stand up for you . Hes not. Make no mistake, if you give power to joe biden, the radical left will Defund Police departments all across america, they will pass federal legislation to reduce Law Enforcement nationwide, they will make every city look like democratrun portland, oregon. No up one will be safe no one will be safe in bidens america. My administration will always stand with the mening and women of Law Enforcement. [cheers and applause] lou the evening, the final evening of the convention filled with emotion and elegance. The widow of retired st. Louis Police Captain david dorn choked up while she talked about her husbands death at the hand of looters. She made this argument against the radical lefts rampant if violence looters are ransacking the shop. They shot and killed david in cold blood. And then live streamed his execution and his last moments on earth. Davids grandson was watching the video on facebook in realtime not realizing he was watching his own grandfather dying on the sidewalk. He was murdered by people who didnt know and just didnt care. He would have done anything to help them. Violence and destruction are not legitimate forms of protest. Lou the parents of humanitarian worker Kayla Mueller argued her daughter might still be alive had President Trump been in office at the time. Kayla was beaten and killed by isis terrorists in 2015 as the Obama Biden Administration failed to bring her home. And Alice Johnson. She threw her support behind President Trump last night and his work for criminal justice reform. President trump commuted her life sentence after she served more than 20 years for a firsttime drug offense. In the white house today, President Trump surprised johnson with his full president ial pardon. And what was the radical lefts reaction to such a night of great drama and poignant, touching speeches . Well, in some places more mob violation. Leftwing fanatic es targeting supporters of President Trump as they left the white house grounds last night, as they left for the evening. Georgia state representative vernon jones, a black democrat who supports President Trump, was among those surrounded and threatened by the leftist mob. Black lives matter activists also attacked senator rand paul and his wife. Listen to this. [inaudible conversations] [background sounds] move back move back lou the d. C. Police escorted paul and his wife through the crowd. At least one Police Officer was assaulted as they left. Senator paul this morning said there was no reasoning with that mob, and he is suggested some in the crowd were paid to be there. Im actually the author of the Breonna Taylor law, so the irony is lost on these idiots that theyre trying to kill the person whos actually trying to get rid of noknock raids. My feeling is that there is interstate criminal traffic being paid for across state lines, but you wont know unless you arrest them. I promise you that at least some of the members of the people who attacked us were not from d. C. They flew here on a plane. Theyve all got fresh new clothes, and they were paid to be here. It is a crime to do that, and it needs to be traced. The fbi needs to investigate. They were inciting a riot, and they would have killed us had the police not been there. Lou that leftwing National Media doing its best again to defend the leftwing mob. Politico wrote, quote protesters confront rand paul outside white house after rnc. Confront. Senator pauls wife, kelly paul, tweetedded this in response no, politico, we were not confronted by protesters. We were circled by a hateful mob shouting vile expletives, preventing us from moving. The scene after last nights Convention Comes as, well, little surprise to many. The radical dems have been inciting such violence ever since President Trump was elected. Heres just a sampling of some of their rhetoric. There needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as theres unrest in our lives. You know, when they go low we go high e . No. No. [laughter] when they go low, we kick them. Go to the hill today [cheers and applause] get up and, please, get up in the face of some congress people. And if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you get loud and you tell them theyre not welcome. This is a movement, im telling you. Theyre not going to stop. Lou not one democrat among them all has condemned the attacks last night against their fellow americans. Or an attack against a u. S. Senator and his wife. While the radical dems continue to condone and in some cases actually encourage partisan rage, President Trump will be turning his attention to the gulf coast where he will be going to console victims of the powerful Storm Hurricane laura. President trump plans to be in texas and louisiana to tour and see for himself the damage caused by that hurricane. At least 11 people were killed in the storm. The hurricanes remnants threaten to bring heavy rains, high winds to the northeast over this weekend. A recordsetting day on wall street to close out the week. The nasdaq gained 70 points, its 40th record of the year. The s p up 23 points, posting its 20th record of the year. The dow up 162 points erasing all of the losses of this year. All of the markets now above, at their high est point. Volume on the big board today, again 3. 9 billion shares traded. For the week, the dow up more than 2. 5 , the s p s p and nasdaq both up more than 3 . Crude oil finishing at 43 a barrel. A reminder to listen to my reports three times a day coast to coast on the a salem rah radio network. Up next here, more on the leftwing mobs politics of hate and violence.

Ends monday. At the Democrat National convention, joe biden and his party repeatedly assailed america as a land of racial, economic and social injustice. Is so tonight i ask you a simple question, how can the Democrat Party ask to lead our country when it spends so much time tearing down our country . [applause] in the lefts backward view, they do not see america as the most free, just and exceptional nation on earth. Instead, they see a wicked nation that must be punished for its sins. Lou President Trump last night said the party of hate cannot win in november. Breaking news now, a new study finds republicans twice as likely to hide their voting intentions to pollsters than democrats. Twice as likely. The study finds 11. 7 of republicans, 10. 5 of independents would hide their true opinions on their preferred president ial candidate. Only 5. 4 of democrats would do the same. Also breaking tonight, the radical dems in virginia apparently believe assaulting a Police Officer is now a misdemeanor. The state Senate Passed a bill wednesday that allows judges to reduce the charge from a felony if the officer is not injured. The bill also removes the mandatory minimum is six month jail sentence for assault ising a Police Officer. Assaulting a Police Officer. That bill now goes to the house of delegates. It has a democrat majority and is very likely to pass. Oh, yes, and they have a democrat governor as well. Joining us now to take all of this up, victor davis hanson, senior fellow and military history at the hoover institution, Professor Emeritus of classics at california state university, best selling author, National Review contributor, Great American, and it is great to have you with us, victor. Lets, lets turn to your impression of the contrast between two conventions, that of the democrats and the republicans. Well, i think lets start off with the mood, lou. I think the republicans came in the there thinking they were closing the lead and that the trajectory had changed and the may and june news cycle was not the september news cycle. And so they were upbeat not just because they are naturally about america, but they felt that they were going to strengthen what is a pretty good trajectory. The democrats came in there very worried, and they kept saying vote, vote, vote, weve got to get out the vote. And then during the Republican Convention we heard from hillary that biden should not concede under any circumstances. Almost assuming hed lose. And then nancy pelosi said there should be no debates. And then don lemon at cnn said, you know, the polls are not good for us, weve got to come out and condemn the riots. They must have been getting data. And when you mentioned polls that are somewhat skewed by the republicans reluctant to tell the pollsters what they really feel, theres two types that are immune to that. One are the betters in vegas, and about 85 of the recent bets went to trump, and the other internal polls. Nobody pays money to be lied to in confidence. And i think a lot of the democratic worry was that their internal polls are not showing a good trajectory. And its kind of important because one of the subtexts of the Republican Convention was to get joe biden out of the basement. And that run out the clock strategy, i dont think, is viable when the polls are almost equal or getting close to that. Is so i think there was a greater worry on the part of the democrats, almost a frantic anger, and it amplify their innate idea that america was founded in sin,s and it was flawed at its origins and the republicans contrasting view that, you know, we dont is have to be, we dont demand to be perfect to be good. So it was very different. And i think its going to be very different. I see these conventions as kind of recalibrating the entire campaign from a virtual candidate of biden to a virtual debate, into something very different. Its going to be, its going to be the wide open now, and i think biden can no longer hide. Lou yeah. It seems that its inescapable, he has to find some way to be at least somewhat animated, show some level of energy. It is highly risky for him given his many confused moments when he has been public. Its, you can understand his strategy which is to basically hide. But as you suggest, that may no longer be an option. Cam aha Harris Kamala harris now not taking questions from the media and the media not demanding she do so. The media not demanding that biden emerge from his cocoon and actually engage with the public. This is, this is madness. Theres no precedent for anything we are witnessing in this political year. No, it isnt. But i think, as ive said in another case, hes sort of a prisoner of his own paradox because he cant debate for the reasons that he detailed, but if he doesnt debate, hes sort of reduced to Clint Eastwoods empty chair when Clint Eastwood spoke at the 2012 Republican Convention. Theyll have a chair up there and trump will be talking to him, and it wont look good. And if he has a nonscripted press conference and he has a town hall meeting or he has a tarmac rally, its not going to go well. But if he doesnt, its not going to go well either because this strategy of playing out the clock was based on an 8 to 10point lead, and i dont think anybody believes either the polls are that accurate or that these internal polls reflect that lead. And so i think hes going to be pushed out. But if hes pushed out, he feels he has no confidence to wage a campaign, so now theyre turning to surrogates. And kamala harris, unfortunately, there was a reason why she didnt do well in the democratic primary, because shes offputting, shes shrill, and shes sort of, you know, race, race, race, race, race. She cant finish a sentence without saying something about race. And when she talked about the rioting as, you know, mostly peaceful and lawful, that wasnt true and people knew it wasnt true because they watch local television or fox news or youtube. So i think theyre going to have some problems that are going to amplify. And theyve been running, lou, against the virus and against trumps tweets and against the lockdown and against the recession and against the george floyd, that trump caused that. That cycle is changing. Trump is a much more disciplined, careful candidate than he was six weeks ago, and the virus is going down in daily case numbers in most of the country. The lockdown is now get 50 million kids back to school, which is popular, and people dont see much connection from looting a gucci store in chicago and george floyd or trying to burn up policemen as theyre barricaded in a barracks in portland. Is so that news cycle is no longer a tailwind for the democrats, and i think theyre going to have to change. Yet they think we have to change and biden has to there out there, it cant be good. Lou were going to be back with more from victor davis hanson, and on the other side were going to take up his the left trying to create a race war in this country, just what are they trying to do . Well be right back. Stay with us. How they gonna pay for this . They will, but with accident forgiveness allstate wont raise your rates just because of an accident. Cut is that good . No you were talking about allstate and. I just. When i. Accident forgiveness from allstate. Click or call for a quote today. So youre a smallness bor a big one. You were thriving, flourishing, but then. Oh. Ah. Okay. Time to think, plan, pivot. How do you bounce back . You dont, you bounce forward, with powerful connectivity. Serious and reliable internet that lets you go bigger and better, with more sharing, more making. Whoa. More that. More talking. The entire time, you got this okay, less talking and more doing. All driven by the largest gig Speed Network in america. And even if the power goes down, your connection doesnt. But what if no ones in the office . Bring the office to them. But is it secure . Sure its secure. Okay, sounds great. So how do i do this . You dont do this. We do this, together. Bounce forward, with comcast business. Our opponents say that redemptin for you can only come from giving power to them. This is a tired anthem spoken by every repressive movement throughout history. But in this country we dont look to career politicians for salvation. In america we dont turn to government to restore our souls. We put our faith in almighty god. [cheers and applause] lou President Trump last night on the radical dems reliance on big government, their almost daily insistence upon dependency on big government. Were back talking with victor davis hanson. Victor, i want do can you a young man ask you, a young man who impressed me greatly, daniel cameron, the attorney general of kentucky, said to the democrats, you cannot tell me how to vote because of the color of my skin. I thought that was an eloquent, succinct expression of independence, and youre hearing Something Like that mood across much of the country. How important is that to the year and to the direction this country really headed . Well, its very important, lou, to the year because the Democratic Party has written off the old union lunch bucket vote, the white middle class, and it relies now on the were wealthy and their money and the very poor and often minorities. But its so skewedderred, that dialectic, that it needs about 90 of the inner city vote, 95 in philadelphia, pittsburgh to balance out rural pennsylvania or detroit, rural michigan or milwaukee, and barack obama proved that they could do it at least in two years. Hillary couldnt do it. But what mr. Cameron is saying is you relied on us so much, and you may think that im not the majority yet of the africanamerican community, but we can beat you without the majority. People like me can get 10, 15, 20 of africanamericans to vote and repudiate you, and because youve written off so many other groups, youre going to lose. And thats what terrifies the democrats this year, that they have to have just an extraordinary, a vast majority of africanamericans, and theyll say and do anything to get that. Usually that means calling everybody a racist who ea peels to the africanamericans appeals to the africanamericans as individuals rather than collective. But more importantly i think, this Republican Convention, you said it and others have said it, there was not a romney there, there were not a bush there, the mccain family was not there. This is a workers, middle class party, and the emphasis was on class, class, class and not identity politics and not race, and thats a far more inclusive concept. Middle class people often with tragic stories, sometimes inspirational, but they werent mad at america. They wanted to be lifted up, of all different races. The democrats were basically wealthy hollywood, silicon valley, wall street types, and they were all angry even though americas been very good to them, and they want race, race, race. But, boy, if republicans can reinvent themselves into a dynamic middle class workers and nationalist party, then thats a very inclusive idea that theyve never tried before. Thats also, i think, explains why a lot of the never trumpers just despise trump, because they just dont want anything to do with a assimilated, integrated middle class party of Common People and workers. Lou and a man who actually does what he says hell do, delivers on his promises and i dont mean that in a rhetorical sense. I mean it in a very hittal sense. Literal sense. This is a man who has, more than any president who preceded him, has done exactly what he said he will do. And one of the things he said he would do is be the president of all the people. I think youre exactly right, victor. This is now a populist party, the party of trump. And Ronna Mcdaniel said the same thing on this broadcast here last night, that this is the party of trump, and that makes all the difference. My question to you as we wrap up, so much has been made of mailin voting. So much of it has already taken place. How likely is it that it will have a definite influence on the outcome of this election . From we have to be specific. Im in a Congressional District where my congressman won by over 6,000 votes on election day, and because of third party vote harvesting, he lost by 600 to the democratic candidate. So its something weve got to worry about. We know why theyre pushing it, but its really a question in these states like wisconsin, pennsylvania, michigan, ohio, north carolina, whos the governor, whos in the legislature, who controls it. And that context its a little bit more favorable for the republicans. We all know what california and new york are going to do, but its not going to matter. What were worried about is wisconsin and michigan and pennsylvania, what are they going to do, because theyre going to decide the election. Thats why we have got to really hope that the republicans put their resources to monitor it, because mail, mailin balloting, canceling the debates, the joe biden basement strategy, theyre all efforts to avoid cop fronts the real confronting the real issues of violence and this leftwing agenda, and theyll do anything, any means necessary to not talk about that. Because its a losing as we saw in the primary, those are losing issues of aoc and Bernie Sanders. Lou yeah. Indeed. Victor davis hanson, always good to have you with us. Thanks.

[applause] lou President Trump last night on the politicallyrut department of justice corrupt department of justice and, yes, federal judiciary and the origins of obamagate. Well, breaking news tonight, senator Lindsey Graham reportedly held a secret interview yesterday with joe pie cent ca peanut ca. Joe pi e pientko who was with peter strzok when they set up general Michael Flynn trying to frame him, and he interviewed graham as well as senators, in fact, senators not on grahams judiciary committee, one senate aide telling the federalist that under previous judiciary chairs, the practice was to invite all Committee Members to attend. Graham didnt even tell some of the republicans on his committee. We contacted grahams office for comment. We, not surprisingly, have yet to hear his response. Text messages reveal how former senator john mccain associate david kramer was feeding stories from chriser chriser the steele, the author of the fake dossier, to the leftwing media. Quote the flynn call story is picking up blades. I think its time to get that other story out there. Thats a reference to a chum about flynn column about flynns contact with Russian Ambassador sergey kislyak. The messages also say ignatius is the one ill feed it to, referring to Washington Post columnist david ignatius. And a win to tell you about for the Trump Campaign. An iowa judge rejected 50,000 absentee ballots because they were prefilled out with voter information. Earlier this month the Trump Campaign and republican groups in the state filed lawsuits to invalidate those ballots saying voters should fill out their own ballots to protect from fraud. Joining us tonight, tom fitton, the president of Judicial Watch. His new book is a republic under assault the lefts ongoing attack on american freedom, available for preorder now. Tom, good to have you with us. It turns out there is voter fraud in this country of all, seemingly, all forms possible. Your reaction to the, to the latest. Well, yeah. In iowa the problem with mailing out ballots that are prefilled or ballot applications that are prefilled, that makes it easy for someone who isnt supposed to get them to follow up and get the darn absentee ballot in response, especially to someone whos living in a place where the ballot is mistakenly sent. We did an investigation of iowas numbers. We found there were problems. And, you know, the problem here is youve got these ballot applications and ballots going to registration lists which are dirty. You know, if youre in the business of lou well, theyre dirty, and theyre also being used to premail ballots out to voters without any assurance that itll get to them or any assurance that there wont be greater fraud. I mean, i think everybody gets why it looks like its a rigged deal and really a bad idea. But meanwhile, and i dont remember any of us getting to vote on it, the democrats go straight ahead with precisely that. Mailin, mail hip voting. Mailin voting. Its so irresponsible that it has to be malicious. And especially the politicians, because the politicians know because theyre in the business of contacting voters in their campaigns. They know the Voter Registration list ares are no to notoriously unreliable. They spend all sorts of money trying to fix them themselves but because they waste time trying to contact voters that arent there. They all know its a joke and yet theyre still pubbing out pushing out almost 100 million ballot applications, lou. What youre [inaudible conversations] lou its got to be stopped. It does. It really does. Lou its got to be stopped, t just that simple. Lets turn to senator graham, again making news by doing something really very, very odd. Not telling members of his own committee that he was talking by cent ca pientka who joined peter strzok in trying to frame general flynn. What is this senator thinking in can you divine his inner most thoughts . I cant. Theyre being dragged kicking and screaming into doing any investigation, and you can give yourself some credit, lou, give Judicial Watch and others who have been critical of not only senator graham, but the Republican Leadership in the senate for failing to investigate this. This would never have been done, and its only being done because of grassroots pressure and finish that folks like you are pressure that folks like you are bringing on the senate. It shows theres a serious concern by the American People that theres been no sufficient accountability. How far problematic however problematic the way graham is doing, it would never have been done but for this pressure. Im surprised theyre asking any questions at all. Its really kind of a victory that theyre bringing this guy in at all at this late date. Lou yes. Its stunning. And a late development, the attorney general responding to a court battle out west. The ninth Circuit Court enjoining an injunction against the enforcement of law by the government of portland, oregon with. Its come to that. And it is absolutely obscene that a federal court in portland would not want federal Law Enforcement officers or any Law Enforcement officer to have at their disposal any, any tool with which to preserve law and order and civil, civil order where there is so much violence. 91 straight the nights of violence. Well, it shows you the attack on the rule of law isnt is just on the streets, it sometimes is in the courts. In my view, the president should invoke the insurrection act, use his other president ial powers under law to protect the citizens and guarantee them a republican form of government in portland, because they dont have i it anymore. Its anarchy. Look, you saw what happened in washington, d. C. Last night. Guests of the president of the United States i was there in my personal capacity, you wouldnt believe what was going on. You left the white house at risk for your personal safe i think because of the leftist safety because of the leftist mayor of d. C. Not providing necessary security around the white house. Unbelievable. [laughter] lou incredible. It was, it was a senator was almost killed but for a Police Officer happening to be there to protect him by the communist mob. Lou you know, i would like, i would like to think the fbi is investigating this with great energy. My guess is, however, quite different than what i would hope. Tom fitton, great to have you with us, as always. Thanks so much. Tom fitton, Judicial Watch. Up next, President Trump highlighting the importance of faith and mercy.

Father, we thank you for the remarkable story of Alice Johnson, a strong believer in the Lord Jesus Christ whose life was filled with heart ache and injustice. And yet instead of becoming bitter, she chose to trust in you. She cried out to you for years asking relief from the hurt that she was feeling. We thank you that you chose to answer her prayers to you through a great president named donald trump, a great leader who, yes, believes in law and order, he believes in justice, but he also believes in mercy. Lou the man praying, pastor Robert Jeffress from the First Baptist church of dallass, fox business contributor, amazing author, amazing american. Great to have you with us. Good to see you, pastor. Thank you. Lou that was a, that was a special moment among many, i know, that youve shared with this president. But for Alice Johnson who was absolutely poignant, just is so elegant just so elegant in her words last night, that was a wonderful, wonderful idea, to give her a full pardon. Good to have you with us. What are you thinking about . Lou, i have never seen or experienced anything like i did today the oval office. This was completely the president s idea really on the spur of the moment. He had already commuted her sentence, but he said wouldnt it be wonderful, we were just talking, wouldnt it be wonderful if i could just give her a fresh beginning . And so he talked to his advisers as he should x they talked about the pluses and minuses as they should, but he said its the right thing to do, and were going to do it. And, you know, this just shows the side of the president that youll never hear from the fake news media. You and i both know that when he needs to be tough, theres nobody tougher e than donald j. Trump. But when the situation calls lou absolutely. Calls for kindness, theres nobody any kinder or more gracious, and thats what makes him such an effective leader. Lou one of the most effective elements of the, what was, i think, a terrific convention for the republicans was the number of times they showed everyday working men and women supporting this president and telling their stories of their relationship with him, what he has done in policy that has made their lives so much better or what hes done personally that has made their lives better. To see Alice Johnson endorse him as she did is going to be meaningful. It is also meaningful, all that the president and the convention did in the name of prolife in this country. Yes. Lou not antiabortion, but prolife. And they made, i think, just a powerful message throughout the week that will carry on through this campaign and beyond. I do too, lou. And, look, in two weeks youve seen two Political Parties paint two very different pictures of the kind of america they want. And if you want a country that is built on socialism, joblessness, lawlessness, then the democrats are your party of choice. But night we heard from our, really all week a vision for a country that continues to be built upon faith and freedom and law and order. I believe thats what most americans want, and i believe thats why President Trump will be reelect on november 3rd. Lou this president made a point in his comments last night in miss his speech in his speech, which i thought was a terrific speech, he said that you should not be looking to government, you should be looking to god. Those are powerful words coming from any president , but at particularly this moment as this country is facing so many challenges, so many threats, and this president standing and fighting. To hear him say that is very special, indeed. And, again, i think a very powerful message to all americans. And you never heard anything like that even from Ronald Reagan or either of the bushes. This president is unique in his embracing of faith. Lou absolutely. Pastor Robert Jeffress, youre unique and a Great American, as i said. Thanks for being with us.
