Critics call hatred, drew breathe and the religious organization firing back tonight. We start with kristin fisher, searing criticism for joe biden from one of president obamas top advisers. We are seeing key democrats saying this goes beyond gaffes. This is more deliberately misleading. David axelrod was a top adviser in the Obama Administration tweeting it is one thing for harmless gaffes and another if you serially distort your own record. Joe biden is in danger of creating a more damaging meme. Axelrod was referring to an article which in an interview on npr said he was against the war in iraq from day one even though he voted to authorize military force in iraq. I came out against war at that moment. Reporter it is not true. Biden is on the record supporting the invasion of iraq right after the war began in 2003 but later changed his mind and said his vote was a mistake. Another mistake last week the Washington Post accused him of getting almost everything wrong in a story he likes to tell on the trail and dont forget about these. I love this place, whats not to like . Kids are just as bright as white kids. We choose science of perfection, we choose truth over facts. Reporter some democrats say the media is blowing this out of proportion. We can talk about this all day long but voters simply dont care. Voters can forgive donald trump being corrupt they can certainly forgive joe biden a few lapses of memory. So are the lapses of memory, mistakes, serial distortions, whatever you want to call them have not heard biden in the polls. Biden is ahead by 8 points in wisconsin followed by Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. All eyes are on the front runner but that will be especially true at the next debate in houston as voters try to figure out if this is more of bidens signature gaffes or something were serious. Shannon interesting to have him, the Smaller Group on stage together to see how he fares facing his toughest critics over the course of 3 hours and not too. Impeachment talk storming back on monday because congress is returning from recess and they are demanding democratic leadership take on the president. Senior capitol hill producer chad Program Takes us deep inside capitol hill to the room the progressive caucus may challenge nancy pelosi on immigration. There will be talk about gun legislation, efforts to avoid a Government Shutdown but the big issue will be impeachment. The number of House Democrats who favor impeaching donald trump or launching a formal impeachment inquiry continues to grow. All House Democrats want some action on impeachment. This is deep in the bowels of the us capital wareHouse Democrats usually meet and where they will strategize about impeachment. The room where it happens. House speaker nancy pelosi. Nancy pelosi is mindful that members of the squad like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and Rashida Tlaib are pushing for impeachment but nancy pelosi must protect moderate democrats must present battleground districts. That navigated treacherous internal democrat what is many times in this room on several occasions earlier this year, kept rankandfile democrats impact. And mostly huddled at hc 5 in late july following the all the hearing with robert mueller. Jared never wanted to forge pelosi rebuffed nadler in this very room. The two pronged approach may satisfy liberals but simultaneously infuriate them if nothing gets done and opens the doors republicans to portray all democrats is dabbling in impeachment. Nancy pelosi will get a near full when democrats meet again in coming weeks. There are 540 rooms in the us capital when it comes to impeachment, none more important than hc 5. As they say in the Broadway Musical hamilton. Thank you. Despite the lower report finding no evidence of collusion between the president of russians democrats are still pushing for impeachment on various other grounds including tonight just minutes ago. Freshman democrat congresswoman ilhan omar tweeting this is insanely corrupt. There is so much of it since he has taken office we dont need the Mueller Report for impeachment. She supporting to her for the House Oversight committee is investigating another line, official use of trump property around the world. Democratic strategists, and editorial director of daily color, thank you for being with us. This comes back to life on monday when everybody comes back from this very long recess and they are ready to go. They say theres no time to waste and it is not just democrats. Here is a republican saying this about impeachment for this president. Dont know if we can wait for 2020 to put him in his place but hopefully nancy pelosi can. What do you think . From across the aisle . The question of impeachment for what you talking high crimes and misdemeanors, democrats often use the word impeachment without explanation. Even jerry nadler who is the person to push this, he is pursuing an impeachment inquiry and hes attempting the same dance as nancy pelosi, they know how politically damaging the impeachment push is an democrats won the house in 2018 not on the strength of their radical base that on centris the party a lasting they want to do is lose power in this way. The speaker has spoken publicly and privately about this, has really accused trump of violating his oath of office, she want colleagues against formal impeachment proceedings if Public Opinion isnt behind such an effort but it seems house judiciary chairman jerry nadler is ready to get this going. I they still an agreement q i dont think so. Right now there are three things they are considering, political, practical and philosophical, and oversight responsibility of congress, it is reasonable they do that but on the political side some of these district support it but most of the district dont. From a practical standpoint even if the house voted this way you have to recognize we have an election coming up, we will have a decision whether the American People care about this in a couple months. Shannon joe biden getting criticism from david axelrod, a key piece of the Obama Biden Administration saying it is one thing to have gaps and another to change your record. Here is a mashup of Media Outlets talking about the statement of the former Vice President. We can talk about this all day long but voters simply dont care and not only do they not care about joe bidens gaffes, their anger is directed at the media for covering them. Getting the details wrong, shows the character of the man. Bidens heart is in the right place. Thats generous. This guy is so funny because earlier this week joe biden said details dont matter for public policymaking when they do entirely, joe biden is at a point in his career when he is showing decline in his ability to cognitively be in a policy position but the view he does when it gets to the general election, supports taxpayer funding for abortion, plans across the country have to close down. Hillary clinton said that was her biggest regret from the last campaign, that she said call miners lose jobs under her administration, joe biden is doing it now. A spokesman for the 2016 campaign so she doesnt have to worry about correcting statements from biden because it is harder to take the arguments from donald trump. That is the point, unforced errors dont do us any good. Speakers said this hasnt made a difference. Respectfully disagree with vince now polling has shown an impact on Vice President biden especially in key states. People know him and assume this is who he is and are not judging him in the negative way. Wait until the campaign will be events. This is baked in, people who love biden will love him anyway.

Shannon our elected leaders turning their backs on Law Enforcement . The second Vice President of the fraternal order of police and former nypd lieutenant doctor aaron porcher, thank you for being with us. The situation in boston, the straight pride parade brought a lot of protesters, didnt have that Police Presence and someone got hurt or killed, he is fearful there would be enormous criticism. One of the city counselors tweeted why did we need to have so many Law Enforcement officers in general and particularly with riot gear. My biggest take away is this reinforces why militarization of police is harmful with protests and large crowd situations. Let the professionals in Law Enforcement deal with Law Enforcement issues. This is a symptom of systemic failure and government. We need to focus not just on protecting the police but our citizens. What they are doing is acting on social contract. When you look at these epic failures among government it goes back to you need the right people in play and Law Enforcement is the first line of defense protecting citizens in this great country. Police officers willing to speak out especially in portland where there has been violent demonstration and suggestions police have been limited in responding to those various situations. Some of these officers say their hands are tied by policies. The police in big cities run by the democratic party, there is intense antipolice movement sentiments, all kinds of policies, laws and media attacks, consent decrees from the Obama Administration that are handcuffing the police. When they take action that is reasonable and legitimate and appropriate they are still being vilified. It is a dire situation, and it is going to get worse. I fear for civil unrest. Reason. Com talking about violence in boston, i dont want to ignore the frustration Police Officers must feel when forced to play referee when people enriching to get physical, deescalation is part of the job. They need to get out of the mindset that if they bump a few more heads these problems will all go away. Is that a Fair Assessment . Im a strong opponent proponents of deescalation. The mind is the most powerful weapon on the street. That should be the first recourse but there are times force may need to be employed as a result of the but the average Police Officer does not want to use force. They want to bring people into custody using minimum force necessary and bigger than that we dont want to arrest our way out of the situation. We prefer to use verbal dialogue. When looking at this it is troublesome to me because the average officer maintaining that presence. Deescalation is the buzzword. Every cop uses deescalation but just like they paint the antipolice movement in false rhetoric of social justice they secondguess and attack the Police Actions which are generally appropriate, you could have deescalated. Another way to attack officers. Shannon thank you for your service on the streets. New details on the devastating boat fire that killed 34 people in california.

Drew brise defending himself against claims he is a big it, the quarterback and super bowl champion sparking outrage for appearing in a video encouraging students to bring their bibles to school. Lets turn to Burgess Owens to talk about faith in the sports world. So it seems the objection from folks on the left is it is about the Group Sponsoring this bible event. One of the headlines is drew brise is the biggest hypocrite in sports, they say plenty of professional Football Players are open about their religious beliefs. What is unusual is how hamfisted brise is trying to have it both ways, refusing to disavow focus on the family, the group they dont like the claiming i do not support any group that discriminates, they do support traditional marriage, not samesex marriage and been labeled a hate group. What do you make of this controversy . Our country is the greatest country in the history of mankind, allow us to be open to all faith or no faith. In this case a religious belief that they believe in but at the end of the day we have i think antigod leftist against anything faith is about. It is a mistake on their part going after someone americans now. Thousands of his teammates he played with, tens of thousands of fans. A good man who loves his family, his wife, his country and god and had the audacity to stand strong and say hes a christian and loves jesus christ and that is why he does what he does.

The tendency to be very intolerant to faith. We can agree to disagree, we can agree we can still work together. I would love to see how many antigod leftist groups would be with tens of thousands of christians will be volunteering to help the folks across the country going through tornadoes and fires and everything so we should agree we should help each other and be tolerant of each others feelings and now americans will not be bullied about believe in god so we have to recognize that is who we are and if they want to allow people to be the they are, we can make it work out. Shannon the question is whether there will be tolerant in all questions and people feel they are accepted whether about religious beliefs or any other part of their life they feel is under.

Shannon to and in sunday at 8 00 pm eastern on fox news for unprecedented access to Supreme CourtJustice Neil Gorsuchs life including the only tv interview his wife is ever given. Time for night court. On the docket tonight, two celebrity cases, Jussie Smolletts attorneys arguing the actor should not have to pay chicago the 130,000 cost of the Police Investigation because he didnt know how much time and money officers would spend investigating. Finger area on a grandes suing for using a model in ads. David bruno and former baltimore prosecutor debbie high, good to have you with us tonight. Lets start with exhibit a in the Jussie Smollett case. His Attorney Says there is suing 137,000 on the investigation. The filing of a Police Report does not necessitate a sprawling investigation, usually results in an investigation is extensive as the one they chose to take in this case. I cannot believe Jussie Smollett is arguing this point. He should pay the money, 130,000 for that and prevent this from coming out again because this case is going to open up all the facts again, surveillance video, gps, everything to support the fact this was staged and i cannot believe it because the city will have this complaint. Shannon they say, Jussie SmollettsPolice Report along the lines of everything i am about to tell you is made up, im trying to get publicity and hope it helps my career. Absent such a Statement Police did what they are supposed to do with allegations of a hate crime, investigate the allegations. How the response . The police did not do what they would normally do in every case. I can tell you as a former prosecutor if someone said they were attacked, they did not know who they were, they had a him aga hat, we are taking a complaint number, call us later if you get further information. He was a celebrity. The fact is you dont get the money back fence on the investigation just because you spent the money. He was not found guilty of filing a false Police Report. That would be the prerequisite to claiming the money. The charges were dropped against him. The city that has hundreds of unsolved homicides, the police should be embarrassed what happened, not Jussie Smollett. His attorneys are correct. Shannon lets get quickly to summary case number 2. These are the images area on a Arianna Grandes is trying to monopolize on my videos to have these ads that look so much like me. The lawsuit says the resemblance is uncanny and the intent was clear. To suggest the viewing public that she endorsed forever 21 product and of affiliate with forever 21. How do you defend that . The fact that there is a model that happens to look like Arianna Grandes does not mean they were trying to say she is endorsing the ads and that is not what they were trying to do and theres no way they can prove the intense, the fact that some people may assume that is the purpose of the ads, is not the intent of forever 21. They were in negotiations, they had licensed photographs and paid a licensing fee. There is no reason to believe they would not have done it in this case if they felt it was necessary to do it. Shannon forever 21 has a statement, the allegations, we are huge supporters of Arianna Grandes, they are disputing this and the ads look like her videos. There is more to it than just the resemblance. They used 30 unauthorized videos and pictures of her themselves. In instagram posts for commercial reasons they have hashtag forever 21, they had Arianna Grandes and user videos. That is the problem. I dont know about the resemblance but actually using her is a problem. Shannon thank you very much. We take the cases to our jury, thank you.
