New surveillance footage, it is coming in, you may have seen it, it is graphic, it shows how the female deputy who was shot in the jaw and arm in compton, california, by an assassin who ambushed her and her partner, shooting at them at pointblank range. She struggled heroically to save the life of her partner bleeding from her own wounds. He was shot in the forearm, arm and hand. This 31yearold mother, rookie, claudia apolonir. She is former librarian. Struggling to get her partner to safety. Trying to put a turn that kit on him tourniquet on him. Doctors call it a double miracle. Compton, california, the force is on heightened alert for possible attacks on deputies. A major manhunt underway for the shooter. Former congressional candidate, John Cummings, a republican running against alexandria ocasiocortez in new yorks 14th district. In large part because you want to restore law and order, is that right, sir . Great to have you on. Of course we do and this idea that the congresswoman has espoused congresswoman alexandria ocasiocortez defunding the police is wrongheaded at every level. This has led to some dangerous rhetoric that occurred. This idea that people support the idea of having police that are illequipped and ill funded is unconscionable. I think is led to a hot of what were seeing right now. Elizabeth you know witnesses that saw the shooting of the two cops laughed and didnt help the young mother. She was shot in the face. Fighting to stay alive for her child. Trying to rescue her partner. Later protesters and rioters blocked doors to the emergency room at the hospital where the deputies were at, shouting we hope they die. To your point, elected officials, supervisors of the l. A. County board there in california say the antipolice rhetoric is out of control. It is contributing to the shooting of the l. A. Sheriff says the same. Repeatedly warn antifa, anarchists are targeting cops. According to the sheriffs, set gasoline on a fire raging out of control. Your reaction to what theyre saying . Liz, when you see that video, i know you showed it, when you see that video, and you look at what officer apolina did, that embodies everything Law Enforcement was about. She was critically wounded to herself and attended to her partner. That is the attitude in Law Enforcement. It is about serving others. Why you run towards the danger, not away from the danger. Very often it is not your partner but a complete stranger. The fact that we [inaudible] is just unconscionable. Elizabeth you know, is the tide finally turning . A judge throws the book at alleged rioters in lancaster, pennsylvania. They have, they have one Million Dollars in bail each. Three protesters in pittsburgh facing charges as they were identified by cops individuals seen in viral videos cursing at diners in a restaurant. Other thing that is happening too, Homeland Security, cbs news Catherine Herridge is finding out, she is reporting Homeland Security has information, overwhelming intelligence, the rioters are affiliated with ideology related to antifa in portland. Youre reaction to that . Im not surprised and i think people are to that. Quote, unquote, silent majority. I think they have known what is going on. Of course people are busy with their i was are. Theyre not very vocal about their displeasure when people are point, pointing hateful rhetoric, excuse me at police. I think the overwhelming majority of the people in this country support the police. I think now theyre more vocal and people are starting to listen to them. Elizabeth lets listen to senator kamala harris. She is joe bidens vicepresident ial running mate. She says she would be more progressive on Police Reform and hold the police more accountable. Both harris and biden raised eyebrows today they both accidentally touted plans under a quote, harris administration. Kamala harris will come up in the sound bite montage well show you about democrats saying we must reimagine Public Safety. Tuck early carlson replayed this last night. Show it again. The folks in Law Enforcement share the goals reimagining policing. Reimagining policing in the 21st century. Rethinking, reimagining policing. Community efforts to reimagine policing. To reimagine policing. We have to reimagine what policing looks like. Reimagining policing. Reimagining our Public Safety. Reimagine citizen led approach. You can begin to reimagine Law Enforcement. Reimagine Public Safety in this country. What can we do to reimagine Public Safety . Reimagining Public Safety. To reimagine Public Safety. We must reimagine when Public Safety looks like. Elizabeth okay. When it comes down to in reality, what does that mean . We, you know the debate is about redirecting funding away from cops but this seems to abroad umbrella term, reimagining policing. What does it mean . No audio] elizabeth i think were having technical difficulties, john. Sorry about that. We will have john back on. Were extending a invitation to alexandria ocasiocortez to appear on the show. No response so far. Well let you know when we have her back. Well stay on the stories as they develop. House republican jim jordan on the vote tomorrow in Homeland Security to subpoena 41 Obama Administration officials as part of a broad review of the fbis trumprussia probe and the Obama Administrations unmasking of trump team members.

Elizabeth lets welcome back to the show house judiciary ranking republican jim jordan. Hey, congressman, always great to have you on. Good to be with you. Elizabeth what is reaction to Senate Homeland security same here. What is reaction to senator ron johnson of Senate Homeland Security Holding a vote tomorrow to s p 41 Obama Administration officials for their role in the fbi trumprussia probe in unmasking . God bless ron johnson. A great senator doing a great job. This definitely needs to happen. Back up for a second, liz. Never forget what the fbi gave as code names for their two big investigations in the obama biden investigation. For the clinton email, investigation, called the midyear exam. Drudge through and pile through, get it over with, we know what were growing to do. Of course for the trump russia investigation where they spied on President Trumps campaign, it was called crossfire hurricane. I mean you can almost see peter strzok pounding his chest texting lisa page, dont worry, lisa, well stop trump. That is where this stuff started. We know what they did. They werent able to stop trump, President Trump getting elected because 63 million of us voted for him. Once he wins they said, oh, no, we have to try to stomach him now, go after his administration and we have to make sure we protect ourselves, cover up what we did and that is when they go after Michael Flynn. Elizabeth how do you expect this to shake out . Because Senate Homeland security is looking to subpoena james comey, john brennan, james clapper, andrew mccabe, obama official susan rice, Samantha Power and denis mcdonough. Do you think they will testify . I hope so. One name in particular, susan rice, famous january 25th meeting, two weeks before inauguration day, that meeting in the oval office, obama, biden, susan rice, james comey, sally yates all in the meeting plotting how they will go after Michael Flynn because that is the key of their coverup. Michael flynn, former head of intelligence, gets to serve as National Security advisor to President Trump, he will figure out what they did. First step, cant stop President Trump. American people wanted him as president. What we have to do is get rid of Michael Flynn. That meeting they plot how they are going to do it. A few weeks later how they set up Michael Flynn four days after he has been in the administration. So i want to see susan rice. I hope that she is someone that senator johnson has subpoenaed. I hope she cops in to testify. She needs to answer a lot of questions, particularly because a few weeks later, remember on inauguration day, susan rice does the now famous cover your backside email to yourself where she says obama did everything by the book. So susan rice i think is particularly interesting. I hope look forward to the day she is actually brought in and testifies in front of senator johnsons committee. Elizabeth what is going to be fallout . More shots to their credibility, undercuts their credibility . Can anyone throw the book at them for their role in this . Senate homeland is looking to subpoena stefan halper, the former cambridge professor at heart of trump russia. He worked with a fbi source to secretly meet and record carter page and george papadopoulus. What is the fallout after all of this . Can they throw the book at him. The Justice Department can indict people and prosecute. Were back to the attorney general and john durham, his report, his investigation, well see what happens there halper is very interesting because there is this group of people from overseas, halper and maybe more importantly in my mind this mifsud guy who is disappeared. Mifsud is the first guy to go up to george papadopoulus, that they have dirt on clinton. That is how they launched the investigation in july of 16. Well, mifsud is the guy who starts it all. The fbi doesnt go after him. When they interviewed him two years ago he lied to them three different times. So mifsud is also important. I hope they go after mifsud, halper, bring the guys in, answering questions under oath. Elizabeth im sorry. Youre right it was dirt on clinton. Here is the other thing, i want to get to what adam schiff is now talking about with this whistleblower, you know, saying that, department of Homeland Security was pressured to tailor reports to jive with what was saying about what National Security threats were. Yeah. Elizabeth brian murphy saying he was under pressure to basically say that it wasnt russia. Can you just lay this out . What is this whistleblower say . What is happening now with the situation down there in washington . Can you push back on this . Yeah. The first thing i would point out adam schiff his relationship with whistleblowers, i dont think we should put a whole stock in that. Last thing was year ago. Anonymous whistleblower, worked for joe biden, became the basis impeachment hoax, who adam schiff said we had no contact with him but his office met with him. I dont put a whole lot of stock of adam schiff says about whistleblowers. He flipped and then he flopped. Initially he said in may this year i was betting pressure from my superiors not to fully talk about what russia is trying to do regarding election. Couple months later he send as email to colleagues. I wasnt pressured or change anything, massage anything, changed his story. In september he file as whistleblower complaint where he was in may. He has been all over the board. He contradicted himself. In fact adam schiff even pointed out on an unrelated issue where murphy, adam schiff thought murphy lied to him. I dont think you can trust this guy. He flipped, flopped, and flipped back. When schiff brings forward information about a whistleblower i think most americans dont put a lot of stock in that based on whistleblower, anonymous whistleblower who schiff said he had no contact with, based on all that during the impeachment hoax. Elizabeth a lot of individuals watching what is going on in washington feel frustrated that you know, these individuals keep getting away with going to the media and raising all sorts of issues that turn out not to be true. So is it that, is the role there for republicans down there just to expose it and try to get voters and American People to see what is really going on . Because theyre not being told by other media, the truth of what these investigations really are about . Of course. That is all we can do in congress. We cant indict anyone. We cant prosecute anyone. We can get to the bottom of it. We can brit facts and truth out for the American People. I remember couple years ago there was only handful of us in the whole congress, a few of you like you, liz, others, only a handful of us to go after the trump russia hoax we were getting from adam schiffs and everyone else in the world. Now turns out we were right. The only thing we had wrong it was worse than we thought. All we can do is get facts and truth out there. Bring people in and ask them tough questions under oath. Elizabeth congressman, great to see you. Come back soon. You bet. Thanks, liz. Elizabeth okay. Up next, former independent counsel ken starr joins us. President trump now demanding that quote, action must be taken after prosecutors on the Robert Mueller trump russia team were found to have wiped clean, erased, dozens of government phones used during the russia investigation. The problem here is if people in the private sector they would have the books thrown at them. The story next. President trump they all deleted and said, oh, gee, we made a mistake. These are criminals were dealing with and they got, there has to be repercussion. There has to be a repercussion if you have postmenopausal osteoporosis and a high risk for fracture, now might not be the best time to ask yourself, are my bones strong . Life is full of make or break moments. Thats why its so important to help reduce your risk of fracture with prolia®. Only prolia® is proven to help strengthen and protect bones from fracture with 1 shot every 6 months. Do not take prolia® if you have low blood calcium, are pregnant, are allergic to it, or take xgeva®. Serious allergic reactions like low blood pressure, trouble breathing, throat tightness, face, lip or tongue swelling, rash, itching or hives have happened. Tell your doctor about dental problems, as severe jaw bone problems may happen. Or new or unusual pain in your hip, groin, or thigh, as unusual thigh bone fractures have occurred. Speak to your doctor before stopping, skipping or delaying prolia®, as spine and other bone fractures have occurred. Prolia® can cause serious side effects, like low blood calcium, serious infections, which could need hospitalization, skin problems, and severe bone, joint, or muscle pain. Are you ready . Ask your doctor about prolia® fda approved for 10 years. Elizabeth welcome back. Were coming into the bottom of the hour. Lets welcome back to the show former independent counsel ken starr. Sir, always great to have you on. Good to see you. Thank you, liz. Elizabeth your reaction to President Trump declaring that quote, action must be taken against former special counsel Robert Muellers team members and his prosecutors of a documents show they wiped clean dozens of government phones used during the russia investigation . This is a very serious revelation, extraordinarily serious. We cant imagine prosecutors marching into their offices and saying, well, i think i will destroy some documents. Lets take these documents to the shreader. This is essentially the electronic equivalent of sledding documents. Unless there is an innocent explanation. It looks very unlikely that there is going to be an innocent explanation. This looks intentional and it is 22 phones with exactly, almost exactly the same excuse, liz, namely, the pass code. I tried to enter the pass code. The Technology People tell us it takes 11 different tries to do that with a time delay and so forth. It is just cries out for investigation. My view . Step one, the inspector general, michael horowitz, an honest cop needs to investigate but we also may need to look at this from the grand jury perspective. Get people in before of the grand jury. It is a great engine for finding the truth. Lets put these individuals under oath. Michael horowitz cannot use a grand jury but the Justice Department, Criminal Division and u. S. Attorneys office certainly can. Elizabeth because if he did it in the private sector you would have the book thrown at you if you destroyed records, right . What is interesting, phones were wiped after peter strzok, lisa pages antitrump bias Text Messages were discovered. There was a gap in Text Messages for these two between december 26 and may 17th, both strzok and page their phones were wiped clean. A lot happened at that time. The trumprussia probe was falling apart. Abuses were happening in the general flynn probe. Strzok and page, as you noted, talking about, Hillary Clinton private email investigation they worked on that. That ironically was about the destruction of federal records. Sir what is happening now, you know, peter strzok is going on television saying that his antitrump Text Messages while he now regrets them after the fact, by the way they were sent on government phones, he is saying theyre being weaponized to be used against the fbi. Lets watch peter strzok here. I certainly regret sending the Text Messages that were absolutely weaponized and used to bludgeon the work of the fbi, special counsel. I will always regret that but at the same time the way that those were weaponized was unprecedented. Elizabeth is he regretting them because he got caught . It would so appear. This idea of quote, weaponizing, they speak for themselves. Peter strzok appears to have taken action designed to warp the trump presidency. This is so appalling that the fbi would allow itself, under the direction of jim comey to be used for political purposes. And then toe, in the process to destroy the reputation, the career, the finances of general flynn as well. Peter strzok really does have an enormous amount of blood on his hands in bringing disrepute to the fbi. It is what he did. Elizabeth he is now saying it is being used to attack the fbi as institution. That is what fbi officials are saying to us, it is only indicative of what he was doing, how he polluted the process, not the fbi institution as a whole because a lot of good men and women working there. You know, he is now saying that, you know, trump is base a National Security threat because he is russian entanglements, russian financial dealings. His book doesnt go into detail about that. Here is the thing. Peter strzok worked at an fbi found to have widespread creditability problems under james comey. Antitrump research. The 17 fisa court errors and omissions found by the i. G. Wiretaps to spy on the trump team. He also doesnt remember writing the text to lisa page in the book. Says it is in the book. Says he doesnt remember saying he wanted to trump to stop being elected. He gets timeline wrong what started the whole trumprussia probe. There are a lot of credibility issues. Were not talking about the fbi as an institution he is talking about. It is players inside under james comey. Your reaction . He is hiding behind the great men and women of the fbi, who are women of integrity and bravery, the fbi motto. He in contrast turned the fbi leadership turned into what sally yates agreed with, acting attorney general in the Obama Administration, it was a rogue fbi, not the main line of lawyerses and investigators and so forth but peter strzok was part of this terrible cabal that terribly injured the reputation of the fbi. Men and women of the fbi feel very strongly. Your sources are exactly right. He stands alone as a rogue person who came to power but he used his power for political reasons and that is the unforgivable sin for an fbi agent. Elizabeth all right. Ken starr, so great to have you on. Come back soon. Okay. Thanks, liz. I sure will. Elizabeth sure. Still ahead, trump 2020 director of communications tim murtagh on growing pushback against democrat shutdown rules. A lot of people say they are radical and restrictive. What is going on . A federal judge, we reported last night a federal judge struck down Governor Tom Wolfs practices. He threatened businesses. This is unconstitutional, that is what the judge said. President trump americans, on other side shutdowns youre living through it right now. There are not many states shut down. They are all democrats.

Can we go and play . roaring of engines i needed to try needed to fall i needed your love im burning away i need never get old elizabeth welcome back, more on the pushback against democrat shut down rules for covid19. Reaction pouring in after federal u. S. District court judge William Stickman struck down pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf drastic covid19 rules, required people to stay at home, ordered businesses to shut down. The judge calling all of this unconstitutional. Welcome back to the show trump 2020 director of communications tim murtagh. Always great to have you own. Your reaction to the judges ruling, the trump rallies are getting criticized for violating covid19 rules. Your reaction . Thank you for having me on again, liz. Of the good to see you as well. I think its a great ruling. People are ready to get back to some sense of normalcy. What is happening here, democrats dont want to see President Trump on the campaign trail because they know he connects so well to the American People. We saw over the weekend with the president s events out there. Of the governor of nevada tried to pressure people not to host the president s events, but our view of it is, most view of most americans is, if you can protest in the streets with tens of thousands of people, if you can burn down Small Businesses in riots, if you can gamble in casinos in las vegas, people can peacefully gather under the First Amendment to hear from the president of the United States. That is the president s view. That is our view. We believe that is the view of most americans. Democrats dont want the president out campaigning because their candidate joe biden couldnt attract a crowd if he tried. He can practice criminal hold Campaign Events in a broom closet. That is the enthusiasm problem he has got. We know the situation but the president is determined to continue to talk to the American People. That is his job as president. He deserves four more years. That is why he is elizabeth criticism, the criticism is they want rallygoers to wear masks, right . So that is the criticism. Well, yes but we take all the precautions prior to the rally. Everyone who goes in, every attendee get as temperature check. If they have a temperature they are not permitted to inside. Every attender gets a mask. There is more Hand Sanitizer than people can possibly use. The majority of the president s events are airplane hangar style. They are outdoor events. The real basis, no democrat, no member of the media cared about 100,000 people protested in washington, d. C. , but theyre upset that the president gave a speech on the south lawn of the white house. Their hypocrisy is easy to see. Elizabeth okay. So the president is going to a town hall tonight with undecided voters. I think it is 9 00 p. M. Eastern time. The media is criticizing for asking joe biden softball questions. Joe biden said in a harris administration, he is making mistakes like that. Talking about five trillion dollars more in Government Spending over 10 years. 3 trillion, 4 trillion of new taxes. Not a lot of questions from joe biden about that. Instead we see this. Why isnt joe biden angrier about all of this . What is your take on the Republican Convention so far . Do you think wearing a mask projects strength or weakness . Do you think the president of the United States is rooting for the violence because he thinks it helps him politically . I want, i want, [laughter] you think he is actually rooting for violence . That he want the violence because absolutely. It allows him to claim a law and order man tell . President trump says offensive things. He never apologizes for it. Is there a double standard here . Go ahead. No. I probably best i dont. Elizabeth okay. What do you think, tim . Your reaction . Well, we see it over and over again. The rare instances that joe biden actually does take questions from the media, a large percentage of those questions are just invitations to him to say bad things about President Trump. We know why that is. It is because the media protecting him doesnt want him to have to talk about his economic plans and his economic records. The fact that he as you say now, is proposing to raise taxes by five trillion dollars. The fact that he oversaw the slowest economic recovery since the great depression. That he voted for nafta, that killed 850,000 american jobs. And that now, in addition to the five trillion in taxes he will impose the regulations of the Green New Deal on every person, business, and building in this country and also give illegal aliens work permits so they can compete with americans for the jobs they need coming out of this downturn in the economy. The president has built the worlds best economy once. He is already doing it a second time. The media doesnt want to address that. Elizabeth all right. Tim murtagh, thanks for coming on. Great to see you. You bet. Thank you, liz. Elizabeth coming up former acting director of intelligence ric grenell and senator ron johnson telling voters you are about to learn about the whole lot more about bidens alleged paytoplay conflicts of interest. The senator said, a new report coming out soon, that will show, biden is simply unfit for office. That sorry next. Question woe all need to ask joe biden, when he took hunter biden over on air force two, did know hunter would comeback with pallets of cash . Quiet. Some lost work and invented new ways to get by. Others were busier than ever, and found strength they never knew they had. We sheltered with the people who matter most, sometimes finding how far apart wed drifted. We worried over loved ones, over money, over our planet. And over takeout. And we found a voice one the noise out there had kept quiet. When the world starts spinning again, lets remember this time where none of us felt secure, and fight for a future where everyone can. Because when the world seems like its standing still. Thats the perfect time for us to change it. Theyre going to be paying for this for a long time. They will, but with accident forgiveness allstate wont raise your rates just because of an accident, even if its your fault. Cut sonny. Was that good . Line the desert never lies. Isnt that what i said . No you were talking about allstate and insurance. I just. When i. Lets try again. Everybody back to one. Accident forgiveness from allstate. Click or call for a quote today. Theres an art to listening. Its the ability to hear more than whats being said. To understand the meaning in every pause. And to be able to offer the answers that make someone feel truly heard. I understand, lets get started. Thats what you get when you talk to a Dell Technologies advisor. Elizabeth welcome back to the show former acting director of National Intelligence and former ambassador ric grenell. Ric, great to see you again. What are you expecting to hear from Top Republican senator ron johnson . He says he is going to release an interim on the investigation into the bidens paytoplay conflicts of interest. He is saying it will show joe biden is quote, unfit for office. What is the material there that is going to indicate that . First of all, thanks for having me. Good to see you again, liz. I dont know the specifics of what senator johnson is releasing but let me just say a couple of things about the seriousness of senator johnson. I havent worked with a u. S. Senator as serious and as committed to getting to the truth. The truth is not partisan and that requires transparency. Senator johnson and many senators were just as focused but senator johnson in particular has been focused on trying to get documents declassified, documents released. He is someone who has worked night and day to try to just get the information in full. Rather than have it spoonfed to him or to the public which is, really how we got into this russian collusion case. I saw the entire set of documents that the democrats used to develop this russian collusion narrative and one thing that people need to understand, your viewers need to understand, is that what was said on Cable Television was fundamentally different than what was said in the basement of the house congressional committees when these individuals were under oath with lawyers around them. When they had the time to be on tv they said outlandish things like, there was proof or they saw collusion of some sort and, would tease the public with oh, just wait until you see this evidence and so, reporters in washington began to report on each others information. Not knowing the truth. Once we were able to look at the truth and senator johnson was part of that digging, we were able to see that under oath these same people that fed the American Public one line would say to lawyers when they were under oath, i didnt see anything, i see no evidence of collusion. That made me sad actually. As acting director of National Intelligence, one was put over on the American People. Elizabeth i hear what youre saying. When it comes to joe biden and hunter Biden State Department officials during the Obama Administration reportedly had serious worries over the bidens paytoplay conflicts of interest when bidens son hunter took a job at high paid Board Director at the Ukraine Energy company burisma. Senator johnsons committee got 2600 pages of documents from blue star strategies, a Public Relations firm linked to burisma holdings. If he is saying he is unfit for office, senator ron johnson is a straightshooter. For him to say that, this sounds really serious for joe biden. Your reaction . I think whenever senator johnson is focused on getting documents and getting to the truth like he has in many instances where i worked with him he is going to be transparent. He is going to let the facts just be presented and so when he says that he has a report based on documents that we havent seen you can be absolutely assured that senator johnson has done his homework and this information is not political. It is just the facts. Transparency is never political that is it what senator johnson has been focused on. Ive been at state department 11 years. I know Many Foreign Service officers, many career individuals at the state department. They were horrified what hunter biden was doing while his father was vice president. He used state Department International contacts, embassies and people were just embarrassed horrified what he was doing. This has never been looked into. He has never had scrutiny from the media and it deserves this. Elizabeth were up against a hard break. Ric grenell, were so sorry we ran out of time. We would love to have you back on to talk about this will you come back . Sure of course, thanks, elizabeth. Elizabeth okay. Good to see you, ric grenell. Stay right there. We have more show right after the break given my unique lifestyle, thatd be perfect let me grab a pen and some paper. Know what . Im gonna switch now. Just need my desk. My chair. And my phone. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. And now your copilot. Still a father. But now a friend. Still an electric car. Just more electrifying. Still a night out.

Elizabeth lets welcome back to the Show National Border Patrol Council President brandon judd on this story. You know, it is great to have you back on. Joe biden wants to weaken President Trumps Border Security policies but there was a story came out of california. A severe crash involving a car on the Golden Gate Bridge. Now seven people were hospitalized including Highway Patrol officers, Fire Department personnel, also the driver. Why were they hospitalized . Not because of the crash, because they were exposed to a drug could have been fentanyl or a drug similar to fentanyl. It was so powerful, it knocked them out, incapacitated them, seven were hospitalleddize including the driver. Your take on this story, we havent seen anything like this, firstresponders knocked out by a drug, likely could have been fentanyl. Your reaction . Its a great example why we have to have Border Security. If we dont have it, these drugs will come across. These drugs are headed to a Street Corner near you. We have to get control of what is going on and joe biden just has not done it. He didnt do it the eight years he was the vice president. We cant expect that he will do it if he becomes the president , which by the way i dont think he will be. Elizabeth you know record amounts of drugs including fentanyl now again being seized at the border. Brandon, your reaction, you know this better than anyone, drug traffickers are trying out a whole new range of getting drugs like fentanyl in. Theyre hiding fentanyl in narcotics in air conditioners of cars, making liquid drugs to look like water in water bottles. Your reaction . This might be unusual, if theyre going tokes dream lengths, were doing a very good job. When were motivated, when im motivated to put on the uniform to go out to serve the public i will do a much better job which is one of the reasons why were so grateful we have people like that support the work that were doing even though you have the far left that is not. We do have the support behind us, which allows us to go out and do the job the best we can. Were forcing the criminal cartels to look for new ways to get their products across the border because were doing such a good job. That is because we have somebody in the white house in President Trump that is backing us up because he wants to take care of the American Public. He does not want anymore deaths from these drugs coming across the border. Elizabeth yeah. Im not heres the thing. Nearly 200 journalists have been murdered in mexico in the last two decades. Mexicos Human Rights Commission reported that this week. The drug cartels are really powerful at the border towns. That is what you guys are fighting. Can you talk a little bit more about that, about how the perception here among the media and democrats is that the Border Patrol are bad guys because theyre stopping illegals from coming in when they should be going to the ports of entry to get asylum . You shouldnt walk across anybodys border. Canada doesnt allow it. Mexico doesnt allow it. Europe doesnt allow it. What is happening south of the border is really serious for our country. Can you talk about that . Absolutely. If we want to see what is happening in portland, oregon, chicago, illinois where all the murders are taking place, when street blocks are being taken over that is what happens in mexico all the time. Day in, day out, this is the chaos that they face and if we dont get a handle on our border, if we do not support the law, law and order, were going to have that same chaos in the United States. Were already starting to see it a little bit. We just dont want it to get as big what it is in mexico. We want our journalists to be able to report on what the truth is. We want them to report on the truth but want them to be able to report. If we have a system like what is going on in mexico, that just isnt going to happen and the public is not going to be safe. We have to stand for law and order and for the safety of the American Public and President Trump does that. Elizabeth your Quick Reaction to California Ninth Circuit Court of appeals, traditionally not a friend of President Trump, President Trump can end amnesty to 300,000 migrants from el salvador and countries in Central America and sudan . Your reaction to that . If the ninth circuit ever agrees to President Trump in this particular case you know is doing a good job. That is the most liberal circuit in the United States but they stood up for the constitution and said what President Trump is trying to do for the safety and security of the United States, of the American People is in fact correct. Good. Thats what we need. Elizabeth all right. Brandon judd, thanks for joining us. Come back soon, okay . Liz, thank you. Elizabeth sure. Im elizabeth macdonald. Youve been watching the evening edit on fox business. Thank you so much for watching. That us did it for us. We hope you have a good evening. Lou dobbs starts now. Lou good evening, everybody.
