The president decided the United States knock longer tolerate the corruption of the next can drug cartels and the deadly consequences of the tens of billions of dollars of Illegal Drugs those cartels smuggle across our southern border. President trump ran on an agenda of securing the border. Since taking office, the president has done just that. The Trump Administration working tirelessly to stop the flow of Illegal Immigrants and Illegal Drugs working with central mayor scan governments and members co, cracking down on caravans and false asylum seekers. The president s pressure on the Mexican Government led to 27,000 mexican troops on the borders helping curb illegal immigration to the United States. But as aggressive as mexico has been on cracking down on illegal immigration, the government of mexico appears reluctant to take the same aggressive posture to fight the violence of the drug cartels. 80 of mexico is controlled or disputed by the cartels, even though the murder rate in mexico is on pace yet again for a recordsetting year, through october. More than 29,000 people have been killed, up from 28,869 over the same period a year ago. President trump is suggesting he will designate those cartels as terrorist organizations. Mexican president man well Lopez Obrador says he will cooperate with the United States but rejects the idea of ier vengs by the United States. Joining us is tom homan to take up this issue. The president is standing up and taking on the cartels despite the protestations originally by manuel Lopez Obrador. Hes right on this issue. Mexico cant dough feet the cartels without us. We have an experience we did it with noriega and colombia. We have a sophistication in our investigations. We have the forensics of financial investigations. We have talented investigators, talented prosecutors. Mexico cannot succeed without us on this issue. Lou mexico cant succeed and the cartels depend on this country to succeed with their sex trafficking, their human smuggling, the deadly drugs. And the dead lire violence mexico is exporting into this country. The deadly fentanyl china is exporting to mexico for distribution into the United States. This nonsense the president has decided is at an end, doing what as you correctly point out what every one of his predecessors look lacks the courage and principles to do and that is shut it down. I will tell you something, lou. I havent been wrong yet when i tell you whats going to happen at this border. The cartels, they will get more violent. More crimes, more homicide. Thats what the left is looking for. They want mexico to be designated. If a judge agrees with that. The day that happens, the Central American caravans will start up again. This isnt just about drugs and crime. Its about the left working hard to undo the remain in Mexico Program and designate that country as an unsafe country. Thats another reason why we need to attack these cartels. Lou what is it you are predict. The left is trying hard. The number of mexicans claiming fear. Its climbing steadily at a great pace. People from southern mexico couple and claim fear. If the cartels keep this violent action, the left, they go to federal court and ask a federal judge who they will shop in the 9th circuit and have it declared that mexico is no longer a safe third country. Lou the president last night in sunrise, florida as hes rallying with tens of thousands of people in the audience. Here is what he had to say addressing the issue of of border security. We are doing great on the border. We are doing great on the border. On no issue have democrat politicians become more dangerous than immigration. The Democrat Party wants open borders, which is a betrayal of every mother and father who wants deadly drugs to be kept out of their community. They want open borders. Lou open borders is what the democrats are running on. It whats they are responsible for. And its an awful record to seek votes in this environment. Where we both discussed, 70,000 overdose deaths. Fentanyl coming into this country at rates that would kill literally hundreds of millions of americans if distributed object to the streets. By the way, china is the source of that fentanyl, or at least nearly all of it. This is a major moment for the United States and for ought government of mexico, and i have to say, im even counseled because Lopez Obrador and the president threatened tariffs if he did not combine to take a mature and responsible position on securing that border. But now hes cooperating with this president to end the deadly violence that drained the blood from of mexico for 40 years for crying out loud. I think the president of mexico understands he cannot beat the cartels without us. Corruption in the mexican military and law enforcement, not all of them. But we have proven in other countries we can do this. Er person running for the democratic ticket, they are not even hiding it. They are pushing open borders, abolish i. C. E. Thats why i want to keep talking like that because it will help this president win by a landslide in 2020. Americans want a secure border.

Hillary vaughn with the latest with washington. Reporter they did make progress hammering out some details. But the deal is not done yet.

She left the negotiations iing the talks are done. We committed to each other that well continue working hard, whether on the phone or in person very intensely the next few days. Reporter mexicos trade team said they made progress on one point. Labor standard enforcement that democrats want looped into the agreement before a house vote. Stopping goods at the border that wont meet their labor standard or sending inspectors into mexico if he thinks there are labor violations. I asked if democrats are asking too much . [inaudible] a solution is going in the right direction. Reporter mexicos team says they will not agree to any enforcement mechanism for labor standards. So they proposed that a panel be used for any labor disputes in question and allow that panel to investigate any complaints of violation. But mexico is not positive Speaker Pelosi will get this done before the end of the year. I asked a trade representative if he thinks they will be able to get this deal done by christmas.

New stock market regard again today. Congratulations, u. S. A. gold down half a percent, silver down half a percent. Consumer spending, strong inventory investment driving stronger gdp growth. A reminder to listen to my reports three times a day coast to coast on the salem radio network. John bolton taking to twitter to issue a warning about Americas National security. He said it probably goes without saying that our National Security priorities is under attack from within. America is distracted. Our enemies are not. A judge delaying the decision on general Michael Flynn until after the horowitz report on fisa abuse. The report will be released december 9. The judge will determine then what the prosecutors do. Lets turn to kt mcfarland who served as deputy National Security advisor to among others, general Michael Flynn. Great to see you, kt. Your thoughts on happy thanksgiving. Happy thanksgiving. Its great to see you, and also to see there are more developments in the Michael Flynn case which looks as if it could well be flown out all together. And this delay on the Inspector Generals report. Give us your insight as to what is at play there. I should point out that i have not seen Michael Flynn since the night he was fired and walked out of the white house. But he has a new lawyer, sidney powell, who you have on the show frequently. She is a cracker jack. She made her reputation getting cases and getting them reversed on the basis of abuse of power. The claim is Michael Flynn was ambushed and targeted and was not allowed access to his records. She thinks thats an abuse of power. If its anything like my experience with the Justice Department, it was. Lou you had to put up with it for months on end. Yeah. Lou i am not going to put words in your mouth. How would you describe the experience, fair . Due process assured . What people think of in america as justice . We have viewed the Justice Department we embeaut the Justice Department and the National Intelligence community a lot of power. Here is what happened to me. I was at my house in long island. And unannounced, fbi agents showed up at my door. I asked them what is this about . Do i need a lawyer . They said you we cant tell you not to get a lawyer. But we want to ask you a few questions to get background on what was going on at trump tower or the administration. I asked if i could have access to my files which they had. They said no, well jeff gift you what you need. Unannounced think started asking me questions. I didnt remember things perfectly. They can take your accidental misremembering and paint a picture that thats a lie. That you committed perjury. Tell me you got an attorney. I have dish ended up getting the most cracker jack attorney in america taken was able to repair the damage. But i had been targeted by them. I hadnt even met any russians, but they were eager to find a crime and connect me as the missing link between flynn and trump and russia. It failed miserably for them. Lou to think of what the president went through with the socalled special counsel. To think of what you went through. Sidney powell is reviewing one act of corruption. Corruption and incompetence is a toxic combination. But that appears to be precisely what was at work in the prosecution of general flynn. And you, its terrible. I have got to ask you about another National Security advisor, thats john bolton. Hes sending out messages, he says it probably goes without saying but then he goes on to tweet. The countrys commitment to our National Security priorities is under attack from within. I would agree the entire country is under attack. But in my opinion, kt, its under attack by dimms who are relentlessly going after this president and trying to stop his administration and a Justice Department and fbi that still require a tremendous rehabilitation if they are to ever have a public image of integrity again. I think what people fail to realize, or maybe they dont care. These impeachment hearings. These continuous investigation when they are smoke in mirrors. If america is weak at home or divide at home. Our adversaries see that. They think this is my moment. I will take advantage of america because its dysfunctional. Who knows what the north koreans might have done. Trump is tough. He asked them lou and hes smart as hell and hes standing up for this country at every turn. You know what i find interesting about the radical dimms on capitol hill . Why isnt there an investigation of them . What they are doing is dividing the country, third ones attacking the president of the United States. They are the ones serving the interests of russia and communist china. They are the ones dividing the country and creating just a mess. If i have ever sooner any reason to suspect collusion, it would be this instance in which they seem to be the radical dimms doing the bidding of russia and china. When they have these hearings they cant wait to rush out to the cameras and make a case and send out fundraising appeals. They are making money and raising their profiles off the fact i think they are endangering american National Security. Its very sad. Thanks for getting that attorney. Thank you. I would be in an orange jumpsuit if i hadnt gotten bob jeffress as my lawyer. Lou well be right back. Stay with us. Lou the white house budget official mark sandy says aid to ukraine was held up because other countries were not contributing enough to ukraine. Sandy noted the restrictions on those funds didnt stop the department of defense from planning to use the funds as planned. A federal judge blocked president s executive order for immigrants to prove they have health insurance. Support for impeachment continues to fall. Researchers from quinnipiac found support dropped from 48 to 44 . Thats the lowest level of support since nancy pelosi announced the socalled inquiry back in september. Joining us the senior counsel for investigations for the house and senate. Lets start with what we are watching here. The president s Approval Ratings are rising over this twoweek period. The support for impeachment is falling. Would you say the democrats are in significant political peril here . Good evening and thank you for having me. I do think that yeah there is a Political Risk sheer. And the polls are certainly not going the direction they would want them to go. When you are running an investigation like this and Holding Hearings like this, after every hearing you want to take stock, what worked, what didnt. The is indicating not much worked here. Jerrold nadler is supposedly, hes going to be taking the baton from the absurdist radical dimms on the impeachment inquiry nonsense. Who does he think he is issuing and i invitation to the United States and his counsel. This is a perceived farce by the American Public. What is the source of his ridiculous behavior. To me it seems likely stick on a pig. You look at how it unfolded. Chairman nadler started an investigation and he didnt have legal standing to do so. You the president was dee need the due process the Republican Congress thought was essential for president clinton. As someone who constructed investigation. Im not sure where we are here. The proseeding has been stacked. So everything is over. Counsel comes in at last minute as window dressing. Lou and nadler as far as we know, doesnt have any material witnesses, that is, fact witnesses of any kind. It looks as if they are persisting because they are trying to say, i was going to i save face, but save lipstick on that pig. As someone who used to put these things together and plan out how we dock an investigation, im not quite sure where we are going. I think well have a few hearings. I dont think there will be witnesses. I think there will be a discussion of the law. But i think it only coherent theme will be a continuation of what we have seen is what we have seen out of alice and wonderland. Sentence first, verdict afterwards. Its ironic that there would and hear being the law which this group of radical dimms decided to simply ignore and frankly just insult throughout this entire process. I want to turn to the Inspector General report that Michael Horowitz expects to be out on the 9th of december. We have some evidence there will be some action recommended against kevin clinesmith, the fbi attorney. It looks like the battle is being prepared for the American Public to expect no recommendation of action whatsoever. Your thoughts . Im not 100 sure what is going to come
