martha: you know, there is a couple very high profile people also involved, john childs is also on the list. his reporting came out late this afternoon. he is the founder of a private equity firm, john hastens former citigroup president chief operating officer. i think a lot of people look at this list and wonder why would these people be in this place in the first place? but i guess that goes to some deeper questions that we don t have the answers to here tonight, mark, right? well, yes. and, again, they are presumed to be innocent. and it s not going to be a slam dunk, too. they have video. but you are going to need some people to testify as to what was going on. that means these gals are going to have to testify i don t know if they will. martha: mark eiglarsh, we will watch it thank you very much. thanks, martha. martha: coming up here tonight on the story governor huckabee and news just breaking out of the white house as the president makes a major nomination moments ago
the labor department is now defending acosta s actions saying the decisions, quote, were approved by department leadership and followed departmental procedures. three house democrats jackie speier debbie wasserman schultz and lois frankel on calling on president trump to demand acosta s resignation and today the president said. this watch. i really don t know too much about it i know he has done a great job as labor secretary. and that seems like a long time ago, but i know he has been a fantastic labor secretary. meantime many of jeffrey epstein s victims and alleged victims who felt shut out of the legal process have brought civil cases against him. martha? martha: trace, thank you very much. here now steve hilton host of the next levy lucien. there are a lot of people, steve, who do not want this story to see the light of day again. exactly right. very important we do those facts that trace laid out there so brilliantly.
the baby certainly doesn t come out better on this. and i think it s disingenuous for any of the democrats whether it s jay endsley of washington or nancy pelosi to somehow pretend that all that planned parenthood is out there to do is to provide contraceptive services and to help women have better health it s an abortion clinic. that s basically what they do. most of the other things, even pap smears and mammograms they don t actually do it at planned parenthood. they simply are the middle man and they refer it to someone else. why don t we get the middle man out of it and let people get those services. we all think that s a good thing. let them do it directly from the people providing it, which is not planned parenthood. martha: obviously it s going to ignite quite a battle. as you say the president promised he would do this and he is following through on it take a look at this poll. this is where the united states is on pro-life and pro-choice. pro-life 44% according to the latest
pizza has been sitting there four years and i do think michael is right. look, have you candidates from new york and candidates from california. there s a bunch of different parts of the democratic party let s say that each person is representing. here s an old white guy from vermont and. martha: you guys are really picking on the old white guy. that s not a very popular phrase in a lot of quarters. but, you know, when you take a look at the chances, you know, of who can whether or not president trump can be beat, michael, let me get your thoughts on this. put up this fox news poll. excellent 19%. good 36%. and president trump s favorability rating is down around 43% right now. so you have got a by on from a number of people including donna shalala and aoc spokesperson corbin trent who say they refuse to endorse bernie for 2020. excited to see many progressives in the race we are not thinking at all about the next election. it raises a lot of questions
services when the fact is they are pretty much an abortion machine. and make a lot of money doing it. martha: i mean, this is exactly the way to carve out money from planned parenthood because they say they refer and that business goes to them and to their bottom line ultimately. as you accurately point out. here is what nancy pelosi said jayensly also the washington governor has also said that search states, 14, i think, are going to try to get together and push back on this legally. this outrageous assault on the healthcare of vulnerable and under served women and families would choke off access to health and preventative healthcare gravely undermining the health and strength of america. who would fill that role, governor? well, there are a lot of community health centers that can do it there is enormous numbers of hospitals. this is such a ridiculous thing for nancy pelosi to talk about this as healthcare. there is nothing healthy about killing a baby.
