Business and national sovereignty. The president plainly putting america first, and after all, thats why he was elected our president. Fox news chief White House Correspondent john roberts with our report. Reporter lou, the president today slammed the Paris Climate Accord as a bad deal for america, one that would give other countries an economic advantage over the United States. Something he said as president he will not stand for. In order to fulfill my solemn duty to protect america and its citizens, the United States will withdraw [applause] from the Paris Climate Accord. Reporter with the formality of the rose garden around him, President Trump today put the world and congress on notice that the u. S. Will only sign onto a deal thats good for america and good for American Workers. Im willing to immediately work with Democratic Leaders to either negotiate our way back into paris under the terms that are fair to the United States and its workers or to negotiate a new deal that protects our country and its taxpayers. Reporter in a half hour speech, President Trump outlined what he said would be the economic burden, pence and job loss from expense and job loss from staying in the paris accord. Teslas ceo, elon musk who stands to gain from the subsidies contained in the Paris Agreement resigned from white house Advisory Boards tweeting, quote and departing president ial councils. Climb change is real. Leaving paris is not good for america or world. House speaker paul ryan, on the other hand, praised the move in a statement saying, quote i commend President Trump for fulfilling his commitment to the American People and withdrawing from this bad deal. In europe leaders with whom President Trump met just last week all but mocked him. Translator the americans cant just get out of the agreement. Mr. Trump thinks that because he does not get close enough to thes doiers to dossiers to comprehensively understanding them. Reporter kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov saying, quote president putin signed this convention in paris. Russia attaches great significance to it. At the same time, the white house moved to mend some fences with russia, setting plans to return to russian compounds on marylands or shores. President obama ordered the diplomats to vacate back in december. And for the first time today, russian president Vladimir Putin acknowledged that Russian Hackers whom putin described as, quote, patriots may have tried to influence the u. S. Election in Donald Trumps favor, though he insisted there was no official government involvement. Translator if they are patriots, they start to to contribute their opinions in order to fight against those who speak ill against russia. Theoretically, its possible. We dont engage in that on a tate level. Reporter President Trump appears to have reinvigorated a base that was beginning to grow weary of the daily scandals that have besieged the white house. And the president made no apology for pulling out of the accord saying he was elected to represent people in places like pittsburgh and not paris. Lou . Lou john, thank you. Words that will probably live for quite a while. Pittsburgh, not paris. Well have reaction from white house counselor Kellyanne Conway coming up here tonight, and our first guest tonight has been a longstanding critic of the Paris Climate Accord. He says mr. Trumps decision tos greater economic opportunity, cheaper, more Flexible Energy choices. Joining me now, senator mike lee. Hes the chairman of the Senate Steering committee, a member of the judiciary committee, and he has authored the new book written out of history the forgotten founders who fought Big Government. Great to have you with us. Congratulations on the book. Thank you. Lou lets turn, if i may, first to the withdrawal by the president of the United States from the accord. A wonderful decision. Look, pittsburgh before paris. Its going to go down in history as one of the great political quotes of our time. This was undoubtedly not only good messaging, but the right decision. The American People deserve better than this. Barack obama knew what he was doing. When he negotiated a deal that he knew had not a prayer of being ratified in the form of a treaty by the United States senate, he negotiated it the way he did knowing full well it could never become law of the land as a treaty. So easy come, easy go. This was never binding in the first place lou thats what he said about the iranian deal that he also didnt take to the congress. Thats right. He knew the same thing both times. Weve allowed too much power to be concentrated in president s, and President Trump righted a wrong committed by the Previous Administration today. Lou and even though there was all sorts of noise from the left, from the dems, you know, they look so small now when they are competing with the president who outlines his reasons, states his purpose and says clearly and unequivocally to his constituents who are the American Workers, the american taxpayers this one is for you, for america first, for our sovereignty. I mean, only fools would think they could compete with that kind of reasoning and that kind of language. Especially whereas here weve got an American People who increasingly are understanding the connection between federal regulation and job growth. Theyre understanding the connection between 2 trillion of Regulatory Compliance costs and who bears those costs. Its not big, corporate fat cats. The American Worker pays higher prices on goods and services and pays for these costs with diminished wages, unemployment and underemployment. President trump stood up for them today, and he should be applauded for this. Lou well, and applauded he was in the rose garden. I mean, that was a group of people, audience to the president , i mean, they were unified, they were obviously energized by what he was saying and absolutely onboard. There was no Division Even remotely apparent today in the white house or in that group of people. These and it was a wonderful piece of imagery for this white house which suggests to me that they are making important communication turns here that will have lasting benefits to the president and his policies. Yeah, i think thats right. I thought it was significant that you saw a number of members of his cabinet and senior staff who were there not only for perception, but also doing interviews afterwards defending him. And their applause was echoed and magnified many times over by everyday, American People, hard working americans everywhere whose rights were defended by this, whose Economic Freedom was protected. Lou 3 trillion, the cost of this idiot agreement that obama led us into. Senator, ive got to ask you, is there anything that president obama did in eight years that wasnt destructive of the economy, our way of life . I mean, there are questions you simply have to ask at some point in his decisions and his policies whose side was he on . Yeah. I think thats right. And, look, im sure we could find something he did lou doesnt come readily to mind. Not to me. This one was really bad. This one was particularly bad. Lou yeah. And in this case, he knew that it would have the potential not only to divide americans, but also potentially to harm americans. Lou well, americans have, on occasion, been divided as you document in written off the history the forgotten founders who fought Big Government. And were going to start with one of your favorites. And, by the way, this is the book. Senator lee has written a very important book which we recommend to you highly. Aaron burr. Youve got to be kidding. Fighting Big Government and executive abuse of power . When aaron burr was the Vice President of the United States under thomas jefferson, he presided as the president of the senate over some impeachment trials of some of Thomas Jeffersons enemies, and he conducted those trials with due process. He was determined to stand up for the rights of the accused. He did this in a way that ended up infuriating jefferson. And jefferson, later when aaron burr was no longer the Vice President , had burr prosecuted for treason, a capital offense. But for the fact that the constitution contains special protections for those accused of treason, aaron burr might well have lost his life to thomas jefferson. Lou well, its a fascinating book. Again, i want to say we recommend it to you highly. Senator mike lee has written it. And i think its a fascinating book, and its a delight to think that its been since the inception of the republic that weve been somewhat squalid in our politics on occasion and have overcome it. For some reason, that seems to me to be important, an important reminder these days. But, you know, what also occurred is the conservatives have been fighting Big Government for, since the founding. It hasnt worked. Is there is it a time for people to change their strategy and their approach . Because we really do need limited government, and we really do need smaller government. How do we get there . They didnt call it conservative Government Back then, they called it common sense. They called it liberty, they called it lou i call everything i agree with common sense. Exactly. Our economy has grown, our population has boomed. Many of the issues that we face today are very, very similar. Theyre very closely mirrored, those that weve faced since the revolution, since the time of the founding. I tell story in this book about some of the Unsung Heroes whose stories are inconsistent with the modern progressive message. Lou and a read, a great read, it is. Again, we recommend it to you highly. Senator, great to have you here. Thank you. Lou enjoyed talking with you. And raising our hopes for the survival of the republic as well. Were coming right back.

Lou russian president putin today decry what he called the russophobic hysteria in the United States, a new term for, as far as i can tell, the russian president , russophobia. Putin telling journalists that antirussian sentiments in the United States have prevented cooperation on fighting radical islamist terrorism. President trump also tweeting, quote the big story is the unmasking and surveillance of people that took place during the Obama Administration. Is he right . Well, joining me to discuss the latest developments in the obama spy and unmasking scandal, the leftwing medias irresponsible focus instead on allegations of russian collusion for which there is no evidence at all is the chief operating officer at circa news, john solomon. John, great to see you again. Thanks, lou. Lou lets start. The president has editor telling everyone and its quite a few Million People, 30 Million People sure. Lou that the big story is the obama scandal. Yeah. And, you know, i think theres a growing number of people on both sides of the aisle that are agreeing that what were learning about Civil Liberties violentses by the Intelligence Community during violences by the Intelligence Community is serious enough to really warrant a look now. I have no illusion that the russia part of this is not going to go away. There are serious issues to be resolved there, but i think a lot of people, the New York Times, the washington post, your own james rosen at fox news are all digging in and, i think, doing a good job of showing there are real issues here. And it was good to see the president acknowledge that as well. Lou james rosen, for example, knows what its like to be spied upon and to have his Civil Liberties violated by a justice department. That of eric holder, we should point out, and president obama. Obama himself is now perilously close to being immersed in this scandal. I mean, with the addition of Samantha Power to the unmasking, if you will, subpoenas as a person of interest yeah. Lou this is getting broader, and it is getting perplexing which suggests that we are a long ways from understanding what really happened in this administration when it comes to surveillance of u. S. Citizens. Youre right. And, quite frankly, president obama is really at the front end of these questions, because in 2011 he changed the rules that made unmaasinging and deminimization much easier for the Intelligence Community. And it set in motion what we now are seeing play out in public. At some point when you know john brennan, Samantha Power and susan rice had access to unmasked americans intelligence, the next obvious question is did they brief the president . Did the president benefit from that . Im certain as the summer winds on, were going to get questions like that, and hopefully, a few answers. Lou and upcoming as well is the interrogation, if you will [laughter] the testimony of the former director of the fbi. Sure. Lou i want to get your sense of that, because it seems to me that as one looks at the record of director comey amongst the first questions that should be asked by the panel is how is it you did not bring scandal after scandal after scandal to resolution and left open files and open cases that look for all the world like political, if you will, subterfuge rather than investigative success . June 8th is going to be a very big day for james comey to come back to the hill and testify before the senate. And i think its going to be a little bit, i think it could be comey versus comey, which i think some of the words he uttered previously are going to be contrasted with what he utters that day. He previously testified the fbi never felt pressured, and now we have leaks suggesting he felt pressured by the president. So which one is it . Which testimony was accurate . I think youre going to see a lot of that in that interrogation, as you said, on june 8th. Its going to to be a very big and interesting day for reporters and for the american public. Lou and hopefully, for the Public Interest and that of the country, because we have a lot of congressmen and a lot of senators who are getting waylaid by what seems at least to many to be tangential issues rather than the very important work of National Security, Foreign Policy and, yes, even domestic policy. John solomon, as always, great to have you with us. Thanks, lou. Lou thanks so much. Be sure to vote in tonights poll. The question is, does your week seem all the better because the dems, globalists and enviroleft are having a lousy week . Yes, we are just that petty.

That sentiment in the marketplace for a reason. It is cause and effect, and the cause i think you can look to the white house for much of it. More good news on the economy.

Seriously, think of all the things you buy. Great. Is this why you asked me to coffee . Well yeah. But also to catchup. Whats in your wallet . Lou a few thoughts now on a persistent Hillary Clinton and her efforts to invent new narratives for her loss last november. The former democratic candidate today appearing at new yorks javits center, the same venue where her plans for an Election Night victory speech were spoiled by one donald j. Trump. And the months in the months since, mrs. Clinton has blamed a long list of people for her loss; a list that never, however, includes the name clinton. And despite spending 1. 2 billion, or about twice what the Trump Campaign spent, she lost. And you remember how the national leftwing media ridiculed, mocked and hooted at donald trump when he said he didnt need to raise a billion dollars to win. He he he didnt and he did. The same leftwing National Media that collude with the the dems, the dnc, the clinton campaign, of course, and hillary herself. Even with the Fourth Estate that had sold out for her and a sitting president boosting her, hundt lost. Yes, lost Hillary Clinton lost, yes, lost, because she was a lousy candidate and arguably a worse person. Cheating in the debate, cheating senator sanders and who knows what else. And shes obviously learned nothing from her losses. And truth is even more a stranger to her now. Truth and mrs. Clinton, theyre simply not friends. She has offered no fewer than 24 excuses about what cost her that election. At least 24 reasons why she lost, none of which include herself or her campaign. Hillary blames the fbi, comey, the russians, low information voters, bad polling, misogynysts, suburban women, facebook, netflix and the Democratic National committee to name just a few. Mrs. Clinton also blaming the New York Times for covering her email scandal, quote, like it was parallel harbor. Pearl harbor. Clinton even declared the former president cost her the election. She said she lost because obama served two terms as president. At this point, mrs. Clinton and mr. Obama are both battling for media attention. Why, would be a reasonable question even as they are both battling their own brewing scandals. Yes, mrs. Clinton has her old ones, and mr. Obama his new ones. And there is no public clamor for either of them in the, well, public mind space. And now joe biden can no longer stand it, apparently missing all that attention he drew as Vice President. Looking at obama and clinton and saying to himself, no more. Crazy joes now ready to grab his share of the leftwing mind share, launching his own pac. Knowing joe as we all do, theres no doubt that hell get that attention but likely not for reasons helpful to the dems or to biden. And obama has receded now mostly from public view just as we were getting used to his reentry as investigates of his administrations spying pick up more energy. And as long as hillary keeps up her excuses tour, tired and desperate dems will simply shake their heads but not their loser labels. So be it. Now the quotation of the evening, this one from George Washington carver who said 99 of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses. Weve noticed that. Were coming right back. President trump is withdrawing the United States from the Paris Climate Accords. It is time to exit the paris accord and time to pursue a new deal that protects the environment, our companies, our citizens and our country. Lou the president , as always, putting america first.

Lou the president touting his decision to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord as a victory for American Workers and taxpayers. The president saying the country saved from a deal that would have cost as much as 6. 5 million jobs by one metric and some 3 trillion by another. The paris accord also would have cut production across a number of important sectors by double digits including an 86 cut for the coal industry. Joining me now to talk about the president s historic announcement today, his continued commitment to the American Worker, Kellyanne Conway, counselor to President Trump. Great to have you here. Thank you, lou. Lou i have to say that this was, you know, a lot of people were holding their breath. A little trumpian suspense built into it [laughter] with a terrific result today. Your thoughts . I agree. Today was trump in full. This is somebody whos always talking about america first, creating new jobs, protecting American Workers and the jobs that they have, protecting those industries that really are populated by the forgotten men and forgotten women. Also talking about sovereignty, talking about legal liability, talking about not adding to the 20 trillion in debt that we already have and talking also about us in this country, just stop the madness of funding other peoples priorities where theyre not forced or even persuaded to conform their behavior, and were supposed to give money to, essentially, u. N. Slush fund. And, you know, lou, if this was such a great idea, then why didnt president obama take it through the senate this put it through ratification . He did his end run around congress with both the Iranian Nuclear deal and the paris accords. If these are such wonderful ideas, such historic moments for the globalists, why go around congress . Thats the way the swamp works and the way that the people that elected donald trump dont want the swamp to work anymore. Lou well, a president going to the senate with an agreement that is a treaty, in effect, and treating it as a treaty would be a reverse of just well, at least two president two presidencies, and its just a remarkable thing to think about. To me, what was amazing about today as the president , it was announced by the Vice President in the rosen garden with everyone before him as one, they applauded the president s statements on withdrawal. Right. Lou on sovereignty, on the American Worker. On the taxpayer. The two constituencies that he mentioned. He didnt talk beyond that. There was no demographic slicing and dicing. Right. Lou this was about the workers and the taxpayers and responsible leadership which he intends to set the standard for. And its why he ran. He knows rally after rally people would stand in line for three hours to be part of a movement. Not a political campaign, but a movement. A Movement Continues when youre president. Those folks dont just want you to keep the Campaign Promises, this is about creating a growth economy and creating competitiveness and unleashing energy, something that President Trump promised in september a couple blocks from here when he gave his great speech about how to cut taxes and create jobs. 25 million jobs over ten years. A lot of that has to do with 4 growth rate being sustained, lou, and also energy investmentings. You cant cothat if you do that if you keep this country stuck from agreements that are a bad deal for america. The president also did two other things to today. He made very clear hed be willing to renegotiate or reenter this, very similar to tpp. It doesnt mean i dont like bilateral trade agreements, it means i like ones that dont screw america and American Workers. The second thing that was very clear today is its june 1st. Its not february 1st. He took months to execute on this. Why . Because he did what leaders do. He took the insights and inputs and ideas of other people who disagreed with him, weighed those and came to the same conclusion. Lou its interesting, the reaction here. Tom steyer, billionaire donor for the democratic party. Lets put that up, if we could. Steyer saying this or screaming this, whatever he did if donald trump pulls the United States out of the Paris Agreement, he will be committing a traitorous act of war against the American People. Steyer, all he did was set the standard for the enviroleft, the dems who you know are flexively are reflexively going to shout hysterically at the president for having made a mature, responsible leadership decision well, tom steyer proved the old add imagine that the adage, he poured millions and millions and millions of dollars into losing causes for the political left and losing candidates based on the same kind of philosophy, the same thing hes criticizing now. Look, ive got a great job, youve got a great job. I have health care benefits, i have retirement security, ive got a lot of blessings in this world. A lot of folks occupant there do not, and thats who donald trump is thinking about. Hes not thinking about the rich billionaires, the mainstream media. He made a promise to these folks. He sees the shutters being the factories being shuttered. The coal miners came to the white house in the first couple weeks of his presidency thank him for helping them reverse these regulations. Another way to reverse this Regulatory Framework was today. Lou Kellyanne Conway, thank you so much. Thank you, lou. Lou great to have you here. Kellyanne conway. Please roll the video now.

Joining us now, Michael Mukasey. He is a former federal judge who served as attorney general under george w. Bush. Great to have you here. Good to be here. Lou it is, it is perplexing that, as james comey prepares to testify next week, hes already told congress that he never faced a serious threat or effort to block an investigation. Right. Lou is that going to limit his credibility . I dont think its going to limit his credibility. In fact, i think itll probably enhance it. Lou really . Sure. Because when somebody tells you, ah, come on, cant you cut this guy some slack, to say that is a serious attempt to stop an investigation when the investigations not being conducted by the guy hes talking to, but rather by people who work at the agency and nothing can directly be affected really by talking to him or by firing him, for that matter. Lou so all of the, you know, the kerfuffle thats being stirred up around primarily by the leftwing National Media, but nonetheless by, also, the dems here, the president s saying, you know, i dont think you should go forward with this. Hes a great guy. That doesnt rise to the level of an issue for the president. Thats, thats an appearance issue, and that may raise some judgment questions because its pretty indices crete to be closing the door indices crete to be closing the door when youve got a meeting and you ask other people to leave and you sit and lay that on him. Thats not a great exercise of judgment, but thats not a crime either. Lou yeah. Yet its being pursued by the National Media as if it were, its being pursued by a couple of committees as if it were, and comey himself seems to like to have some ste of revenge by lashing out at, from the sources to whom he has leaked his intent suggest he wants to vent himself about the president and to lash out at him. Well, he his behavior in all of this going back to the press conference in july in which he said that no responsible prosecutor, no reasonable prosecutor would ever have brought a case against mrs. Clinton whereas, in fact, the evidence showed exactly the opposite lou right. In fact, cases had been brought, although in military courts against people who paid a huge price, some of them put in jail for doing less than she did. From that moment on, i think his behavior has really been extraordinary. Hes been way outside the lines, and hes decided hes got this personal mark to make. Lou and the president even went so far as to call him a nut job. But the question becomes why has this man achieved such a popularity with congress and the senate, apparently at least as its described by the national leftwing media. But he has not successfully brought any major scandal to an investigative conclusion and gone after anyone. Each of these scandals has just sort of died a quiet death under the umbrella, the rubric of, you know, its a fbi investigation, and no one can talk. Nor, apparently, ever see the light of day again. Except, of course, for the director who can talk at will. Lou right. I think a lot of this, of course, goes back to his testimony involving the scene in the hospital, the melodramatic scene in which he supposedly saved the republican lou with john ashcroft. John ashcroft. Much overblown. He had, in fact, approved and continued to approve the program before and after and when only minor adjustments were made, and he himself kind of made sure that thats, that that testimony happened by meeting with a senator the weekend before and telling him about it. So, i mean, it didnt come tumbling out lou right. As an accident. Hes been lou constructing constructing this, right. Lou well, the drama will have a lot of players next week. Its going to be fascinating. Another part of the drama, and that is the issuance of subpoenas by the Intelligence Committee to the fbi, the nsa, the cia over the unmasking by Obama Administration officials including now the u. N. Ambassador, former u. N. Ambassador, Samantha Power. This is taking on considerable heft and energy. That last part of it that you pointed out, the involvement of Samantha Power, is really strange because its one thing to subpoena records relating to the director of the cia. Thats where evaluation of intelligence takes place. Thats where judgements about whether you have to disclose a name in order to make the intelligence comprehensible, thats where those decisions are made. Its another thing to say, well, the National Security adviser, susan rice, might have done some of this. Lou right. Very rarely does it get to the white house where somebody makes a decision like that. But lets assume that thats okay and thats part of normal business. Samantha power was not part of Intelligence Community. She was not somebody who participated ordinarily or extraordinarily in those decisions. Lou not at all in her purview. Judge, great to have you with us. Michael mukasey. Good to be with you. Lou great to see you and appreciate your insight, as always. Up next, President Trump today blasted the economic costs of remaining in the paris accord. My job as president is to do everything within my power to give america a level playing field.

President trump signed a waiver that delays moving the u. S. Embassy in israel from tel aviv to jerusalem. A white house statement said quote no one should consider this step to be in any way a retreat from the president strong support for israel. President trump made the decision to successfully negotiating a deal between israel and the palestinians. So there you are and now joining me the director of the Heritage Foundations Margaret Thatcher center for freedom dr. Nile gardiner. Its great to have you on the show. What an extraordinary day. The president cogently forcefully laying out his reasons for withdrawing the United States from the Paris Agreement and theyearold behaving like children screaming at the top of their lungs, you cant do that. Oh yes the president just did it. Your reaction . I think firstly this was a tremendous day for u. S. Sovereignty, good day for the u. S. Economy as well because i believe that Paris Agreement would be an absolutely destructive in terms of impact on the u. S. Economy were destroyed hundreds of thousands of u. S. Jobs. It would have cost 2. 5 trillion by 2035 according to the Heritage Foundation study. The impact would have been devastating. This is a good day for america when you have a president whos willing to stand up for the United States on the world stage. Hes willing to defend u. S. National sovereignty and today President Trump sent exactly the right message to the world that he will stand up for the u. S. National interest and as you pointed out earlier no surprise as to how the condemnation sweeping across the atlantic from europe and you are going to see the combination continuing for the next few days the next few months in the next few years as well.

I think many european have for the last few months and thats a good thing because they recognize we do have a leader here in the United States that will stand up for his country. President obama was extraordinarily weakkneed and indecisive. In many ways he was quintessential European Union style leader which is why so many eu like to mock president obama because he didnt stand for strong u. S. Leadership and thats something that many eu leaders actually liked. Donald trump does stand up at aggressively. Thats going to raise the hackles of leaders in germany. Lou hackles raised and thank you President Trump are doing so. Nile gardiner gray tabby with us. Look forward to seeing you soon.
