The nations conscience. As you can see on your screen a new York City Police officer is sucker punched by a man protesting the eric garner grand jury decision. Here now, president obama on Black Entertainment Television earlier this week, calling for more demonstrations. A countrys conscience sometimes has to be triggered by some inconvenience, because i think a lot of people who saw the eric garner video are troubled. Even if they havent had that same experience themselves. The value of peaceful protests, activism, organizing, is it reminds the society this is not yet done. Lou president obama, however, offering a much different view when addressing the largely Latino Univision audience last night. I think the criminal Justice System is improved. I think that if you talk to younger people, your daughter, my daughters, their attitudes absolutely are better when it comes to race. You know, the folks who say theres not a lot of improvement, i dont think were living in the 50s. Lou the American Public disagrees with the president just one in five americans see race relation improving under this president according to the latest cbs poll. Turning to berkeley, california where hundreds have already been arrested for looting, violence, destruction of property. Another chilling video has surfaced, a white man protesting alleged Police Brutality steps into try to stop a group of black men from looting a local radioshack store. Then he is beaten unconscious by a man wielding a hammer. The latest incident in a series of violent demonstrations in berkeley. Fox news correspondent will carr has the report. Reporter for the fourth night in a row, hundreds of demonstrators taking to the streets in berkeley, california, protesting against grand jury decisions in the eric garner and Michael Brown cases. Demonstrations across the country have been mostly peaceful, but in berkeley, protesters have caused property damage, scuffled with the police and blocked trains and highways. Its a way to be heard, i guess its surprised me. Reporter Police Responded with tear gas and bean ban guns, trying to keep injuries to a minimum. Protesters say the respond is too heavy handed. I was very surprised and concerned about what i think was Excessive Force by the police. Reporter police say they were responding to a dangerous situation, doing what they had to do to protect the public and themselves. A credible threat is indicated by 20 officers injured by ice picks thrown at them. Reporter Community Leaders say enough is enough, to work with them to bring about change without violence or unrest. We wanted to win our brothers and sisters over. Reporter meanwhile, the demonstrations continue across the country. Protests held in phoenix and milwaukee and in boulder, colorado. One father gives the student to teach his kids about free speech and police protection. I wanted them to see the First Amendment right of ours. Reporter Berkeley HighSchool Students walked out of class in protest looking to tonight, Berkeley Police will be back out in force. So far theyve arrested more than 200 people over the past four days, lou . Back to you. Lou will carr, thanks. Much more on the demonstrations and the attacks on local Law Enforcement. Well be talking with Milwaukee County sheriff david clark. Turning to capitol hill, congressional leaders unveil more than one trillion dollar spending bill to keep the federal government running. The 1600page document does absolutely nothing to stop the president s executive action on amnesty other than put a shorter time frame on funding for the Homeland Security department. It would run out next february instead of next september. House Speaker Boehner tried to frame that as a positive but conservatives arent buying it. Tomorrow, will pass a responsible bill that keeps the government running. Without the threat of a government shutdown, this sets up a direct challenge to the president s unilateral actions on immigration when we have new majorities in both chambers of congress. I feel they are asking us to punt on first down without any effort to get a first down or score a touchdown. By that, i mean there is no sincere effort to defund the president s unlawful, illegal amnesty. Lou for their part, democrats are mainly complaining about two provisions in the measure, one that eases regulations imposed on big banks and another that increases Campaign Contribution limits to political parties. We assume the two parties reached a deal at least on that part of the document. Seven more states joining the lawsuit against president obama over his amnesty executive order, bringing the total number to 24. That Development Comes as a new fox news poll shows a majority of 60 of voters now disapprove of the president choosing to bypass congress to change how the government deals with illegal immigration. Federal immigration officials, however, carrying the president s water with a director of citizenship and Immigration Services going as far as to dare, to dare the next president. To reverse obamas actions. Cis director leon rodriguez said, quote and the president himself taking criticism from univision anchor jorge ramos, blasting the administration for not blasting the executive fiat sooner. Deporter in chief. You called me deporter in chief. But let me say this. You cannot stop deportation. That is not true. Those like you sometime, jorge who suggest there are simple, quick answers to the problems. I never said that. Yes, you do, thats how you present it. When you present it in that way, it does a disservice because it makes the assumption that the political process is one that can easily be moved around depending on the will of one person, thats not how things work. Lou obviously, the two men having some trouble communicating. Shortly after their exchange, president obama called on ramos to do, quote, a good job making sure people take advantage of his amnesty program. The Benghazi Select Committee held second hearing focusing on a new state Department Inspector general report that says diplomatic facilities overseas like benghazi were suffering from dramatic security flaws and lapses at the time of the terrorist attack. Bound to bring former secretary of state Hillary Clinton to the hill to testify. Fox news chief intelligence correspondent Catherine Herridge with our report. The department is at increased risk because it lacks sufficient processes and planning. Reporter the state Department Watchdog found standard security at benghazi consulate was not the exception but part of a broader pattern. During the Second Public hearing, witnesses testified the u. S. Personnel are operating out of warehouses with inadequate security, embedding local guard forces is a problem. Did any of them allow guards to work before being fully veted . Yes, a number allowed them to work without vetting. Mr. Chairman, i do not understand how this can be two years after four americans were killed in benghazi. Reporter and no witness could explain why state Department Personnel were in Eastern Libya and whose policy made it okay to bypass physical security standards. When you deviate from the standards theres a waiver process you adhere to. Whether the waiver process followed . I do not believe so, no. Reporter a federal lawsuit amplified the point. The benghazi guard force was in such disarray, the Security Status was described as an emergency. The situation in terms of security was toxic on september 11th, 2012. The Blue Mountain group had no license to operate in libya. Reporter the Republican Committee chairman wants to hear from key players in the talking points fiasco including thenu. N. Ambassador susan rice who blamed the antimuslim video on national television. Former acing director of the Chretien Mike morel who heavily edated talking points. You cannot watch the Surveillance Video from that night in benghazi and have the word spontaneity come anywhere near entering your mind. Yes, it was politics. Reporter rice and rose would appear voluntarily. The white house spokesman said he would question the motivation of republicans adding that the administration would continue to cooperate but only with what he described as legitimate oversight. Lou . Lou theres also the question who of decides what is legitimate in washington, d. C. Reporter exactly, thats the wiggle room word for sure. Lou catherine, thanks so much. Well have much more on the Benghazi Select Committee hearing. Talking with congressman lynn westmoreland. Were coming right back. Stay with us. Whose side is this president and the Democratic Party really on . Our military around the world is on high alert because of the feinstein cia report. Well be joined next by former u. S.

Request a prospectus or summary prospectus with investment information, risks, fees and expenses to read and consider carefully before investing. Lou lawmakers voicing deep skepticism about the lackluster white house response to the Islamic State. Brett mcguirk, a deputy special envoy testified before the House Foreign Affairs committee saying progress with the campaign is likely to be uneven. We have indeed begun to make progress against isil. This will be a longterm, multiyear campaign, we are now in the earliest phases of phase one. And as we move into a new phase, that require a global effort in addition to ongoing support from this congress. Lou congressman ed royce, however, the Foreign AffairsCommittee Chairman said the white house is dithering. Joining us former u. S. Ambassador to the united nations, Fox News Contributor ambassador john bolton. Good to have you here. Good to be here. Lou when i hear about an official talk about a long war, a multipleyear war, its enough to make one physically ill to hear that kind of superior view emanating from one who frankly has not demonstrated any capacity to win a war anywhere at any time. This is a prescription for failure. Look, isis blasted out of syria into iraq four or five months ago. They routed the iraqi military, that we trained and armed and had so much faith in. What weve done since then is basically watch isis consolidate its control over territory. When the only sensible response would have been to strike back very quickly. Because otherwise, this force creating a new country in the middle east that will be a magnet for international terrorism. The Islamic State, we learned today, speaking of multiple year efforts. I love that expression that a program to train and equip some 5,000 syrian rebels, moderates, will only take a year. Have our leaders taken leave of their senses . Is the Islamic State supposed to wait around for their very carefully planned and prolonged approach to military strategy . This is a prescription for failure. We might as well stop right now and tell isis, you create the a new state, lets talk about diplomatic recognition. The answer was to think like churchill did in the time of the Russian Revolution when we should have straddled bolshevism in the cradle. If we try to take the iraqi army, isis will take control of the territory, expand it. It will be a new state, new threat to arab friends in the region, israel, and threat to United States and western europe. How can we be so laid back about it . It defies logic. Lou laidback, entitled, impervious to any suggestion of reality, and its just abysmal, the entire, the entire administration is abysmal in foreign policy, military strategy, and its comprehension of the nations interest in the global, in the global challenges weis. Absolutely. Look, if you wanted to craft a strategy that would guaranty isis getting on its feet and steak control, youre seeing it from the obama administration. And if you were perverse, youd say maybe they want istoys win. I dont believe that. But i do believe that what theyre doing guaranteed that outcome. Lou ambassador john bolton, always good to have you with us, thank you. Thank you, lou. Lou a littleknown fact about the trillion dollar spending bill that funds the federal government through september of next year includes 19 Million Dollars to protect rhinos and other endangered species, we put up the pictures you knew we were talking about the exotic animals, not the republicans in name only beings who do and have at capitol hill. If you have 2 million lying around would and like to impress a certain lady, you can buy her a victorias secret fantasy bra. 18karatgold. 16 thousand j. E. M. S worn by two brazilian supermologists in the annual victoria secrets fashion show, and we are going to continue in just one moment. Stay with us. Could something that small make an impact on something as big as your retirement . I dont think so. Well if you start putting that towards your retirement every week and let it grow over time, for twenty to thirty years, that retirement challenge might not seem so big after all. You dont need to think about the energy that makes our lives possible. Because we do. Were exxonmobil and powering the world responsibly is our job. Because boiling an egg. Isnt as simple as just boiling an egg. Life takes energy. Energy lives here. Lou up and tonight, protesters more violent as president obama calls for more protests. A few comments now on a president who has regressed, it seems to me. Regressed and whose demeanor and rhetoric for all the world appear to be that of a Common Community organizer and one who has lost his sense of community. In a Television Interview last night with univisions jorge ramos. Ramos asked mr. Obama what hes done for Race Relations and what hes done about what ramos called white privilege. I think that if you talk to younger people, your daughter, my daughters, their attitudes absolutely are better when it comes to race. And eric garner, there is really not a lot of improvement. The folks who say arent a lot of improvement werent living in the 50s and remember what its like to be black or hispanic and interacting with the police then. Lou isnt it compelling to hear the nations first africanamerican president Holding Forth with jorge ramos a Mexican National working in the United States, not his country of origin, talk about our racial problems in this country. Compelling irony. Only the day before in an interview with b. E. T. That the president seeking the audiences affirmation sounded like we were back in the 1950s. I want my grandsons to be treated like anybody elses grandsons. I dont want them to be subjected to the kind of constant bias that makes them feel as if this is not their home. Lou constant bias, mr. President . Americans have become accustomed to the president s capacity for contradiction and preference for the dower and negative hyper bowly. His disregard and lowly vision of our country that has given him just about everything is deeply offense testify me. It is one thing to make it clear to find america exceptional. It is one thing to intimate america is racist as he has done for two straight days. It is one thing to expect much of others and settle for so little of ones self. Ours is one of the most tolerant nations in the world, i would argue the most tolerant. The daily collar reported on World Value Survey who asked folks all over who they wouldnt want as neighbors. 15 of germans, 22 of japanese all said they wouldnt want to live next to people of a different race. By comparison, only 5 of americans said people of a different race. Thats rather impressive for a nation held in such low regard by its leader. Perhaps the president should look to himself and examine why only 9 of those surveyed in a recent poll believe he has improved racial relations since taking Office Almost six years ago. 9 . And yet, mr. Obama persists in his disheartening, deadening images and demeanor. When a president made of greater stuff would be seeking to elevate notenervate american people. Seeking us to encourage those of us who make up this exceptional nation deserving of exceptional leaders. Help us out here, mr. President , would you . Now the quotation of the evening from the bishop theologian wescott were coming right back. The obama and domestic doctrine calling for demonstrations in the streets of america, and continuing his assault on our Law Enforcement agencies. Milwaukee county sheriff david clark here next.

Ask your doctor about cialis for daily use and a free 30tablet trial. Lou president obama claims Race Relations have improved during an interview with jorge ramos, but at the same time, taking aim at nations Law Enforcement officers. Whats also true is that there are still instances in which a young black boy or brown boy is not being evaluated in terms of risk, precisely in the same way as a white young person might be by the police. Now that can be solved through better training, better accountability, better transparency. Lou my next guest says Law Enforcement is thrown under the bus by this president. Joining us Milwaukee County sheriff david clark, thanks for being with us. It seems that there is literally a war being waged on Law Enforcement officers and agencies in this country. How does it feel . Feels horrible, im here to defend the honor and integrity and the character of Law Enforcement officers all across this country and do it with the ferociousness of a junkyard dog. Look, irreparable damage is caused to this profession by powerful and important people, people like the president of the United States, the attorney general, the mayor of new york. Law enforcement officers, 99. 9 of them go out every day to serve their communities with honor and distinction. Are we perfect . Far from it. But mayor de blasio should have to experience one day what new york city would be like without the nypd. That city would collapse into utter chaos. These people are out here cop bashing, trying to score cheap political points at the expense of our Law Enforcement officers. Lou as the administration has tried, obviously tried to exploit politically, tragedy whether it be the shooting death of Michael Brown, or the chokehold death or alleged chokehold death of eric garner. These are two incidents, and in no way am i minimizing them, but two incidents and this president projects that into a national, national crisis, a national problem, and calls for the retraining of 35,000 Police Officers that will be about 25,000 of those 35,000 who are street cops who will have to go through training. Yet, the president calls for no response from the community of new york, the ferguson, missouri, the attorney general, basically denigrates all of Law Enforcement, and the president , the president is denigrating American Society is racist. How do we get beyond this . Better and more effective leadership than were getting right now out of anybody in washington, d. C. Look, its pretty obvious that ferguson, missouri, what happened in new york, as you indicated, tragic situations. These are not a microcosm of anything. Those are local stories. Local communities to deal with. Its getting tiring for me and many officer who put the uniform on to be used as a battering ram, full, and try to use us to describe whats wrong with america. The police are not the problem in america, lou. The police are one of the few things left thats right with america. And we ought to begin extolling the honor, the courage, the integrity like we do during Law Enforcement week. President obama and eric holder go down to the Law EnforcementMemorial Wall with the names of over 20,000 Law Enforcement officers who are sacrificing their lives and service to community. They ought to stand in front of the wall and stare at it for a couple minutes and maybe come to the realization how wrong they are. Let me say this about society. White society has to be tired of getting their nose rubbed into the ugly path that slavery did to this country. Theyre being made to commit sins pay for sins that they did not commit. Im here to extol on White Society the Great Strides that theyve made in righting those past wrongs. I am living proof for people of all colors, all races, genders, so on and so forth. And when we start to acknowledge the strides that weve made. Well see how far weve come and can build off of that. Right now, this nation is coming apart, and instead of seeing president obamas potential gettysburg address, hes simply being present. Lou you know, i appreciate that, sheriff, and i want to put into context a couple of things, and that is that one, this president knows the reality, and thats really the shame of it. He knows the truth. This is a president seeking political advantage. Its a strategy, and he doesnt care, as you put it, how many people he throws under the bus in Law Enforcement. He doesnt care about the truth, and its clear, because hes too intelligent a man not to. This is a political strategy. It is, im not going to report the numbers of people who have committed murders. Theyre overwhelming, we know the statistics. All im going to say is that if theres a race problem in this country, it isnt a problem for most americans and you and i and everyone watching this broadcast knows it, americans are good people, they need to have that stated by their president. Hes a president who should be, as i said earlier, elevating us, not denigrating us. Sheriff david clark, thank you so much for being here and all you do for your community and by extension, our whole country. Thanks so much. Lou, its a pleasure to serve. Lou thank you, sheriff. Up next, Speaker Boehner strikes what conservatives are calling a bad deal because there are few conservative issues in his government funding bill that they dont like so much. Well take that up and much more, including whats right with it. Stay with us. You get sick, you cant breathe through your nose suddenly, youre a mouth breather. A mouth breather well, put on a breathe right strip and shut your mouth. Cold medicines open your nose over time, but add a breathe right strip and pow, it opens your nose up to 38 more. So you can breathe and do the one thing you want to do, sleep. Add breathe right to your Cold Medicine shut your mouth and sleep right. Breathe right. And look for the calming scent of new breathe right lavender, in the sleep aisle. Lou a huge selloff today on wall street. Stocks closing sharply lower. The dow plummeted 268 points, the nasdaq fell 82 point. Volume on the big board, 4 billion shares, and a reminder to listen to my Financial Reports three times a day on the salem radio network. Turning to politics, Senate Conservatives largely silent after the release of that more than one trillion dollar spending bill from house republicans. Joining us the ateam columnist for the hill a. B. Stoddard and lisa boothe, senior director for the black rock group, a private consulting firm. The conservatives fairly quiet, is this a done deal or is there going to be a conservative backlash and perhaps obstacle to get things done . Well, this is not a done deal until its done, you know how interesting things get at final hours before people are rushing off for the holidays. Right now, there is some brewing rebellion on the democratic side, i dont know if theyre going to get enough democratic votes to offset the loss of dozens of house conservatives on the house side. Senate conservatives remain quiet as of this hour week dont know what theyre going to say tomorrow or the next day. You know theyre unhappy. Some of them have been quoted like senator cruz and others saying this is really not the time to relent, that if you agree to fund the government and to basically, in essence, fund, allow president s executive order on immigration to stand, and you dont fight it now. That theyll only lose leverage between now and when new congress is sworn in january when the new leadership is arguing to them, theyll have more republicans and bigger sway against the president. So there is, you know, a significant upset, i dont know if its going to stop the bill. Theres problems on both sides of the aisle right now. Lou let me interject and tell our viewers, live pictures of the rules committee chaired by congressman Pete Sessions as theyre moving forward with at least the procedure on the legislation. Lisa, are the conservatives caught here in a dilemma . And that is, they know what the impact will be and how unfavorably the American Public will respond to republicans who are perceived to be shutting down the federal government. See, i dont think they are. I think this bill is going to move forward. And i do agree with conservatives having concern and there being, and americans having concerns quite frankly. Look, the members of congress are going to have a day to review a 1600 page bill that is over 1 trillion. This isnt the exact reason why americans hate congress. I think we have to look at why were here at this moment. And the reason being is because democrats fail to pass appropriations bills. If you look at republicans, republicans passed numerous appropriations bills, debated the bills for almost 90 hours and consider 112 amendments. Lisa, can you visualize the eyes glazing over in our audience as you talk about appropriations of the process, but its an unwinnable debate. Americans and i think rightfully, dont want to know all of the nasty details of appropriation and budgeting. Here sorry. Go ahead. This is what republicans should care about. Republicans will have more leverage next congress, the cromnibus, were moving the dhs funding until february when we have a republican majority, when we have more power. Well have 54 more republicans in the senate and the largest House Majority since the Truman Administration to be able to have leverage and fight obama on this thing. Additionally, its going to be a lot harder for president obama to make the argument against this when the majority of the federal government is funded through september. Lou lets turn to the issue at hand here, that is immigration, the fiat in what the republicans, how theyre responding here. Americans are absolutely appalled at the handling of the issue of illegal immigration and opposed to the use of fiat by this president. The number is just about 60 disapprove. A. B. , what happens here . Well, thats why republicans are under pressure to do something now, and lisa is right, the department of Homeland Security, which is oversees immigration and Customs Enforcement is only funded until february 27th. At that point there will be a huge debate where there are more republican votes in the house and the senate, over whether or not to fund it Going Forward after that date. And what implications are for the president s new executive order. But theres a lot of disagreement over this because the choice to republicans right now is shut government down or fight. And they dont want to shut it down. Lou lisa, you get the final 20 seconds, go for it. Republicans should fight president obamas executive action, its egregious overreach by the president. And stands in sharp contrast to what he said 20 times. Republicans are ready to fight and will fight in february which is when we take up the dhs funding. Lou thanks for being with us, a. B.

Lou the chairman of a special House Committee investigating the deadly 2012 terrorist attacks in benghazi defended the need for additional hearings. Congressman trey gaudy outlined it today. What precautions were taken . Where . By whom . Why were we told the benghazi facility was secure . Why were we told there was a Strong Security presence in benghazi when we now know there was false . Why an ambassador trusted to represent us in a dangerous land wasnt trusted to know what security he needed to do his job. Lou joining us now, a member of the Benghazi Select Committee, congressman lynn westmoreland, he serves on the Financial Services committee and he is the deputy chairman of the National Republican congressional committee. Congressman, great to have you with us tonight. Thank you. Lou lets start with congressman gowdys points about all of the unanswered questions. Is it fair to assume that the committee is going to pursue those answers until theyre finally realized . Yeah, i mean i dont think there is any doubt about it. Anybody on the committee is committed to finding out the truth. Look, the president on september 10 of 2012 made a statement that extra security precautions had been made for september 11th. Well we want to know what the extra security precautions were. If youre talking about sending two additional Diplomatic Security agency from a tripoli to benghazi that thats additional security when there was only three there, i dont think that works. Were going to find out exactly what he meant when he said that there was some additional preparedness. Lou congressman, senators Dianne Feinstein putting out the feinstein democratic report, full, on the cia, and enhanced interrogation procedures. Your reaction to the timing and to the appropriateness of that report. Lou, it was only one thing, politics, she knew if she didnt get it out now, she wouldnt get it out. And after spending 40 Million Dollars of taxpayer money to get this report only for political purposes, theyre still trying to get back at president bush. They havent gotten over that in six years. This was just a political thing. And i mean it can bring potential harm or even death to americans that are being held captive right now across the world, and as weve seen, isil and others do not treat our, our captives very well at all. So this just puts them in even more danger. And ill tell you, mr. Hayden and Vice President cheney, some of the other people that ive seen and read their thoughts on this, those were the guys that were front and center. And for ms. Feinstein to say that the leaders in both the house and the senate on the Intelligence Committee was not informed of this is just not true, and i believe they knew exactly what was going on and gave permission for it. Here again, this was another political whack at the president , former president bush, and trying to make themselves look good, trying to make us look like were friends to the world, when the world is not friends with us. Lou congressman, i want to turn to the spending bill. The 1. 1 trillion spending bill that has been moved in the house. Earlier today, congressman matt salmon of arizona said he and 50 other congressman were adamantly opposed to this bill for a variety of reasons, but principally because it doesnt go far enough in their judgment on a host of issues, among them immigration, despite the fact that Homeland Security is only funded through february. Your thoughts. Theres a lot of people voting for it for a variety of reasons, too. Im going to vote for it because the navigable water portion of this which would allow farmers on their farm and drainage ditches not to be regulated by the epa. The epa budget is cut 21 from the 2010 level. The fte as low as it was in 1989, were cutting 350 Million Dollars from the irs. Theres a lot of good things. A lot of life rideers in the thing. I dont care who you are, you can vote against or for something up here. And the immigration thing does not hold water. This president cannot do anything until the funds were appropriated. And what were passing for the Homeland Security is a shortterm cr which can mean its the same funding it was last year, and so for any new program, he would be breaking the laws on that. You cant fight somebody for what they say theyre going to do. You have to wait until they do it. And so thats the reason we need to put this off until the end of february when we will have a better way to fight. Well have more tools to fight. Well have a majority in the senate to help us fight, and so to me, thats the logical thing to do. I mean, theres a hill here that you come down every day. I dont think this is the right hill. Lou congressman, i take that as wisdom, political and life lesson as well. Theres another one when youre talking about fighting across at 1600 pennsylvania. Theres another old saying too, let my enemy, when i do fight be worthy. Congressman, thank you so much. Congressman lynn westmoreland. Appreciate it. Lou thank you. Time for a few of your comments. Chris tweeted me to say we love hearing from you, so does everyone else watching and listening to the broadcast. Email us at lou loudobbs. Com. Follow us on twitter at lou dobbs news. Go to our facebook page, links to everything at loudobbs. Com. Now to the wrap, last night i talked about the disappointment of not having a government worthy of the american people, what we are witnessing is not only disappointing, it is surely dangerous and corrupting and corroding some of the most Important Institution in this country. Academia is no longer a safe han for intellectual integrity and toxicity of orthodoxy, Political Correctness and the aggressive insistence of the left have overwhelmed many of the nations colleges and universities. Case in point, the past the prestigious Smith College in massachusetts felt actually compelled to apologize for including the phrase all lives matter in her email to students supporting as she was their demonstration and protest efforts. Kathleen mccartney claims she was barraged from criticism from student body for not writing instead all lives matter, instead black lives matter.
