Funds for the military budget and raising taxes to awe bollish private abolish private health insurance. The Trump Campaign responding just moments ago to bidens choice writing in a statement that not long ago Kamala Harris called joe biden a racist and is asked for an apology she never received. Clearly, phony kamala will abandon her own morals as well as try to bury her record as a prosecutor in order to appease the antipolice extremists controlling the democrat party. In her failed attempt at running for president , Kamala Harris gleefully embraced the lefts radical manifesto calling for trillions of dollars in new taxes and backing Bernie Sanders government takeover of health care. She is proof that joe biden is an empty shell being filled with the extreme agenda of the radicals on the left. President trump is scheduled to hold a News Conference later this hour where we expect he will be asked about todays announcement. And turning to the days developments, over the past couple of months President Trump has condemned the radical left can and their disdain for the rule of law.

The violation in democratrun cities also coming close to the white house yesterday. The secret service shot a man near the north lawn, and he was charged today with a assault on a police officer. Myron berryman was shot after screaming and running towards secret service, taking something out of his clothing and crouching down into a shooters stance. The incident broke up President Trumps News Conference yesterday in the White House Briefing room. The president remained composed and levelheaded, dismissing later the possibility that he might be shaken in any way. President trump, eager to get back to talking about the countrys historic economic recovery under his leadership. And the Dow Jones Industrials and s p today after the close up nearly 50 , the nasdaq up about 57 since their bear market lows earlier this year, a sure sign of the vshaped recovery the president and his administration are promising to deliver for the American People. Investors spooked today for a while after the big ten and pac12 conferences announced they are canceling College Sports in the fall. Markets fell from intraday highs when they made those announcements that had been reached after news of russia approving a china virus vaccine. Questions remain about the safety and the quality of that vaccine as it has only undergone preliminary early testing. Joining us to talk all of this up is White House Press secretary cawly mcenaney, and it is great to have you with us. Lets start with all of the its great to see you. Lets start with all of the violence that is hitting democratrun cities all across the country that the president and the administration have had to contend with. Your thoughts on what the administrations response will be in the days ahead as the violence continues. Sure. So first let me note just how appalling the status quo is. You had in chicago the derelict mayor breaking up a beach party as her city was being looted. Her city two nights in a rowing being looted. Over in seattle, as you know, slashing the budget for the have had. Seattle, of course, known for the c. H. O. P. Zone where two young men lost their lives, and police couldnt even reach them. Their Police Department is one of the most diverse in the nation known for hiring a number of black men and women who have been hailed as a real model for how to do things. This would mean they cut that Police Department by 100 officers. Its appalling as murders skyrocket in these democrat cities. What were doing here at the administration, we put in place operation legend. Were limited what we can do in our federal policy, but weve deployeded extra fbi personnel and federal agents, and so far theyre arrested 250, charged 250, and theyll continue to be hard at work in assisting these hoping Police Departments. Lou well, and speaking of arrests and the number of cities that seem to be hell bent on cutting their Police Departments, in chicago we learned that states attorney kim fox has dropped over 25,000 felony charges in three years in that role. It looks like they could slash the Prosecutors Office budgets as well. Your reaction. What a complete and utter insult to the men and women, the young children, some toddlers who have lost their lives in the streets because of this lawlessness. And you have a prosecutor dropping charges which sends a signal to every criminal across chicago that their actions will not received a adequate relate ily abuse, that they will not be hell to the standard of justice in a court of law. Its disgusting and it does an absolute disservice to the younged toddlers, little boys and girls who lost their lives because of the derelict mayor, the prosecutor and people who clearly dont care about law and order in their streets. Lou the president , as the law and order president , has to, he has some difficult decisions ahead of him. Withdrawing federal Law Enforcement officers and agents from porthand, the result has been over portland, the result has been over the past over a week now a deck la la ration of a riot by the local Police Department every evening since they have withdrawn. How much more can the country put up with . Yeah. So so those federal agents are there, and their only jurisdiction is to protect that courthouse. So what weve seen with these riots are theyve been happening in places far away from the courthouse or at least not there in the immediate jurisdiction of the officers, and what weve seen are finally mayor wheeler who used to march alongside these rioters that he calledded Peaceful Protesters finally admitting that when you lock people in a building, 20 federal officers and civilians in a building, try to set the building on fire, you finally have the mayor after 73 days calling this attempted murder. Its unacceptable, and its up to the mayor to control his streets. Lou well, it may be up to him, but those streets remain well out of his control or anyone elses. Kayleigh mcenany, its great to have you with us, thanks so much. Thanks, lou. Lou appreciate it.

Lou breaking news now, a small minneapolis nonprofit that receivedded 35 million in donations after the death of george floyd has been using that money to bail out accused killers and convicted rapists. Fox 9 in minneapolis reports the Minnesota Freedom Fund spent about a half Million Dollars to post bail for a man who shot at police during the riots in may, a woman accused of culling her friend killing her friend and a twiceconvicted rapest charged with kidnapping and sexual assault. Many celebrities and members of joe bidens Campaign Recently donating to the fund. John durhams investigation into the origins of obamagate appears headed for a whitewash. Former assistant fbi director chris swek earth, whos has worked with durham on previous investigations and knows durham personally, telling real clear investigations that he expects durhams investigation to be wrapped by labor day but that indictments are unlikely for james comey, john brennan or james clapper. A report simply condemning the actions of comey, brennan and clapper would be more of the same nos morass that we have witnessed over the past four years and would prove once again the deep state remains firm ally in the control of the swamp firmly in control of the swamp. Also breaking tonight, attorney general william barr has undisclosed reasons for dismissing the case against general Michael Flynn tied to other investigations. Barrs acting solicitor general jeff wall today revealed during the hearing with the full d. C. Appellate court on whether to force judge Emmet Sullivan to dismiss general flynns case. Flynns attorney, sidney powell, told the court today, quote general flynn is a defendant without a prosecutor. Only the department of justice can decide the Public Interest and more idea factors myriad factors inherent in pursuing a prosecution. There are no circumstances now under which judge sullivan can continue on this case because his bias demands disqualification. Joining us now siny powell sidney powell, attorney for general Michael Flynn and a former federal prosecutor, best selling author. Sid, its great to see you. Thanks, lou. Lou i just, just looking over some of the statements from the d. C. Appellate court judges. You are up against, youre outnumbered, without question, and theyre not even trying to disguise their political bias from the bench, are they . There was certainly a lot of questions, lou. I will have to leave it to individuals to listen to it, and i would encourage people really to listen to the arguments to understand how our court system is working or not working, as the case a may be. Because the rule of law is what separates us from countries like colombia and venezuela and failed states. We have to have a functioning rule of law that holds everyone accountable in the same way and not break rules for Somebody Just because its Michael Flynn who was prosecuted when there was no case to prosecute. The government has now recognized that. The government moved to dismiss it back on may 7th, and we havent been able to get the dismissal granted yet. And the court has no role in that lou well, you have a politically is it unfair of me to say that its pretty obvious to all of us who watch and follow and read about this case that judge Emmet Sullivan and i know at one time he was a here hero of yours, but he has behaved as a monster of the left in this case. It is despicable what he has done. It is a disgraces to the judiciary, and some of the judges on in this d. C. Appellate Court En Banc at todays hearing, im amused by the fact that they cant speak plain english or plain american from the bench. But i think it couldnt be much plainer to hear what Cornelia Hill ard, the judge said to you today, and id like us to pulse that up as a a put that up as a full screen, if you would, the quote. She said this its the core of any judges job to assess cases and view the strongest arguments that can be made on both sides. Your position, speaking to you, is, no, he cant hear both sides from the law, he has to drop the case like a hot potato without adversary closing argument. What in the heck kind of [inaudible] is that . Well, i was certainly perplexed by that question because one of the requirements in our constitution that there be an actual case in controversy. Theres no controversy between the defendant and the government anymore. They both agreed that the case should be dropped. And so since only the government can be required to prosecute something, i mean, it cant be required to prosecute something by the court, it can only do it if it chooses to do it, theres nothing left to litigate x. Thats why every single case in the country in which the government has ever moved to dismiss a criminal case at any stage of the case even after conviction and sentencing and on certiorari, the government gets that dismissal. All dismissals are granted. Lou how many irregular decisionses haves judge sullivan made at this point in the case that defy precedent and law . Well, certainly his appointment of an amicus to stand in the stead of the government was highly regular, his solicitation of amicus briefs by anybody who wanted to file one in a criminal case was highly irregular. When the court told him by mandamus to the panel to grant dismissal, he didnt do that. He instead on his own, as if he were a party as if hes not, he filed a petition lou and its been heard. Yes. Thats what we were in court for today. Lou and thats insane. Its not only unprecedented and not part of procedure, its just crazy. And good for them, i mean, theyve got 70 of the judges on the bank, as it were, judging the [laughter] i dont know what the hell theyre judging, to be honest with you. The political winds, i suppose, and their preferences. We have now a judiciary that is showing itself to be rotten in political corruption, just as rotten as the former officialdom of the fbi and the Justice Department. The American People right now are about to become physically ill looking at what was once a judicial system that was the finest in all the world. An fbi that was storied in bravery and achievement, and it is rotten. And it may be rotten to the core for all we know. And now we have special, special investigators assigned, john durham, to investigate the origins of obamagate, and it looks like thats going to be a whitewash of the highest order. We not only lost our integrity, we have lost our guts. I am deeply concerned about the tate of the state of our judiciary, the state of the Justice Department and the fbi. I believe most americans feel much the way i do. Your thoughts. Im very concerned too, lou. I have always held our judiciary in the highest regard, i still do, i still want to, and i understand that sometimes they ask questions to test both sides that dont reflect what they think at all. But its very important that they put politics out of this and decide the case as if it were john doe as opposed to creating a Michael Flynn exception to the rule of law that doesnt apply to anyone else. They wouldnt want it applied to someone in their own family if they were in this situation. This has taken four years of the life of a dedicated American Patriot who has just done everything humanly possible to serve his country. And it was started by an investigation that was corrupt from the beginning. They had no basis to investigate, and then they made up the false statements against him, and now the governments finally admitted the wrongs and wants to set it right, and we cant get the district judge to issue the order of dismissal when every case in the country the dismissal has to be grant canned. Its always granted because no court can make the government prosecute a case. To its beyond with frustrating, to saw the least, that were till here lou its three months later trying to get a case dismissed that cant be prosecuted and should never have been prosecuted in the first place. Lou well, theres something wrong as well with the highest court in the land, in my opinion. I dont know what the law calls for, i dont know the properer procedure, or but i do know that the chief justice of the u. S. Supreme Court Watching this up fold should unfold should reach down into the d. C. Appellate court and grab them by the napes of their necks and say get with the law and get your heads right. This is disgusting, what he is putting up with. The entire federal judiciary looks like what its become with, politically corrupt and disgustingly so. Sidney powell, we thank you for everything youre doing for a man who has been, awe hong with his family, tortured for four years. Persecuted, not prosecuted. And now the court doesnt even have the sufficient integrity level to actually make it right. Its appalling. Sidney powell, youre an inspiration to all of us. Were delighted and honored to have you with us. Thank you. Wed like to hear your thoughts on all of this. Share your comments. Follow me on twitter loudobbs like me on facebook, follow me
