FBC Lou Dobbs Tonight July 12, 2024

Downgraded to a tropical storm. It mitt landfall overnight as a category two hurricane near gulf shores, alabama a. The storm moving northeast at the relatively slow pace of 2 miles an hour. It has hit parts of alabama, florida, mississippi and georgia. Parts of those states are being pummeled with massive amounts of rain, and thats why we point out the speed, the slow speed with which it is advancing now that its made landfall. Its produced lifethreatening flooding, and winds are damaging. Fema has more than 2500 responders prepositioned, ready to give assistance to those in the path of what has been a disastrous storm. Meanwhile on the west coast, 87 large wildfires are burning. 34 people have been killed, almost 5 million acres of land scorched and thousands of homes have been destroyed. Making matters worse, choking smoke from these fires has adversely affected, as you would expect, the air quality, placing it in an unhealthy range, to say the least. Smoke has traveled far now as europe. President trump making something of a stir of his own today, the president lashing out at the radical dems over the stalledout china virus relief negotiations. President trump accusing those dems of withholding stimulus payments that he wants to be sent directly to the American People. President trump tweeted this democrats, he said, are heartless. They dont want to give stimulus payments to people who desperately need the money and whose fault it was not that the plague calm from china came from china. Go for the much higher numbers, republicans. It all comes back to the usa anyway one way or another. I interpret that to mean he wants the full trillion dollars. I dont see it as being an entreaty to [laughter] even begin to think about the astronomical numbers that nancy pelosi has been playing with. Breaking news now, prosecutors have unsealed charges against five chinese citizens for Cyber Attacks against more than a hundred companies in the United States and around the world. Those companies include social media firms, universities and telecom providers, those firms that were attacked. And joining us now is jared kushner, the Senior Adviser to President Trump. And, jared, its great to have you with us. Youve had quite a week. Youre getting use, i suspect, to quite the extraordinary weeks. The administration continues to make Great Strides and advances. These are historic. Give us your thoughts, youve been working hard with the president and the secretary of state to bring this to fruition. Thank you, lou, for having me. Its great to be with you. Yesterday we su saw at the white house President Trump prepseudod over the signing of two separate peace agreements, israel and United Arab Emirates and israel and bahrain. When President Trump ran for office, the middle east was a total mess. Isis had a call lu fate the size of ohio, iran was very emboldened thanks to terrible deal the Previous Administration made, and President Trump really put an end to that. He took his first trip to saudi arabia as president , he laid out his plan for how he wanted to fix the middle east, and this week weve harvested some of the fruit. A lot of people said hed start world war iii, yesterday he actually did just the opposite where he was able to make the first peace deal in the middle east in 26 years. And he did not just one deal, but two deals which is why, again, the American People love the results that President Trump is bringing. Lou well, who would not other than, of course, the radical dems and the left in this country. No one has been more egregiously opposed to trumps middle east policy than john brennan who is not only the former director of the obamaera cia, but also a suspect you can add the number, you would put him in the top five of those leading the obamagate scandal against President Trump. Lets go back to may 14th of 2018 and what brennan had to say about the trump the initiatives in the middle east. Deaths, he said, in gaza result of utter disregard if we could put this up, please, this full screen . Deaths in gaza result of utter disregard of ambassadors trump and net netanyahu by moving emby to jerusalem trump played politics, destroyed u. S. Peacemaker role, new generation of israelis, palestinians need to us isolate extremists to find path to peace. We could go on with almost the entire National Security staff of the white house in those years. They were wrong and they were wrong and they were wrong. President trump has, through the course of his first term in office, been proved right not only in the middle east and in culminating in these agreements, these historic agreements, but throughout his presidency. He has been right on the federal reserve, hes been right on interest it rates, he has been right on china, on tariffs. And economic growth. Tax sauce taxation and tax cuts. The list goes on, and yet your administration doesnt get the credit, near the credit, that it deserves, only assault from the left and the radical dems. And now comes nancy pelosi wanting to talk about the stimulus package, the china virus relief package. Are you seriously going to entertain, is the president going to entertain a 3 trillion number . Because he left it ambiguous as to what number he was talking about when he talked to republicans saying go for the higher number. Right. President trumps a dealmaker. He always leaves all things open, but hes a pragmatist, and at the end of the day, hell do whatever he thinks is best to make the American People safer and more prosperous. You just showed John Brennans comments. Again, they did not understand President Trump, they didnt understand why he won, husband supporters, how frustrated the country was with seeing decades of failed leadership in washington, soldiers finish. Lou they not only didnt understand, yeah, they didnt not only understand President Trump and they still dont they didnt obviously understand the middle east or the policies that were necessary to achieve the kind of success that President Trump has succeeded, has achieved here. And they were took a different approach, and thats why [inaudible] lou anything we can point to. Yeah, different. Straightforwardly. You look at what they dud, gave 150 billion to the treasury of iran, the largest state sponsor of terrorism, and as the saying goes, you get what you subsidize. And theyfectively were sub sutizing not only terrorism, but continued chaos and pawn and suffering throughout the middle east in far too many arab states. You have reversed that. The president has reversed the decline of this country on the worlds stage. Give us a sense of what is happening with tiktok and the chinese. The deal in the which tiktok would maintain, would be, would main talk about majority control. That sounds like an awfully bad deal. Tell us what makes sense about it that is not at least, to me, obvious. Right. So i think theres two separate questions. One about tiktok, and the second ones about china more broadly. With regards to tiktok, the president obviously took a very strong action to say that he wanted to protect the National Security interests of america, he wanted to protect their privacy and their data. He put in place a very strong action that said if he doesnt get a satisfactory outcome, hes going to shut the company i down. They it . Ed a deal to the cfius review board, and i know thats under review, so i cant comment on it, but i do believe its being adjudicated on the merits of whether its going to protect american citizens security, and im sure hell make the right decision. With regards to china more broadly, obviously, were still fighting through this pandemic. I think President Trumps cone a great job of getting our country to a place where our economy is rebounding. Were very rapid arely accelerating vaccines and they were therapeutics, and weve gotten supplies to all the governors and hospitals that have needed it. But President Trump, obviously, knows that this is, theres some very tough discussions to be had with china and, obviously, based on the track record that President Trump has in the first three years, nobodys been tougher on china with his policies. Hes very angry about all the jobs that left our country, but unlike past politicians, he actually took action and was reversing the course before the pandemic came. My sense is once we get through, President Trump will rebuilding the economy, bring our jobs back faster than anyone thinks and make our economy rise to a higher place than we were before. Lou i want to return to tiktok because it is the president who put this forward, and cfius, frankly, i dont care about because theyre 99. 9 of their decisions, they rubber stamp what a president it isnt is just with this administration, but as you well know, they rubber stamp decisions and very seldom oppose the president. The president s view here was that he wanted them to duh vest; that is divest, the Chinese Company with is absolute obligations to the Chinese Communist party and government. How could this possibly be a construct that a makes sense in which oracle would end up with minority status, not even majority control, and furthermore then have the company headquartered in the United States . That sounds like a very preposterous construction of a deal to follow the president s orders to divest by september 15th. Right. Well, you know better than anyone, lou, that if the president doesnt like a deal, he wont be awe grade to walk away from it. Afraid to walk away from it. He didnt settle for a good deal, he waited til he got the deal that he really wanted and made that deal. The president will review this deal as it comes in. I know hes been briefed preliminarily, but i believe theyll give him the full brief once they f gone through the review so they can show whether it does secure, protect the data of american citizens or not. And then on the proper baucus, hell make the bay us, hell make the right adjudication as he has before. Lou he has been historically right on so many things. That is not my concern. My concern is our audience understanding how what looks to be a very peculiar construction be rational and sustainable, protecting the National Interests which is, i think is not obvious. Jared kushner, its always great to talk with you. We appreciate it. We understand that your fatherinlaw has advanced the time with his briefing, so were going to take a quick, were going to make a quick move to jim jordan, to jim jordan. Congressman from ohio, great american. And congressman, great to have you here. You heard me ask i did. Lou great to have you. I asked him about the tiktok deal. It makes no sense to me, does it to you . No. Well see what cfius does. I just dont know. I do know this president , like no other president , has stood up to china, and this president does what he says hes going to do, gets results. I mean, lou, think about it. Taxes cut, regulations reduced, Fastest Growing economy in history prior to this coronavirus. Lowest unemployment income 50 years, out of the iran deal, embassy in jerusalem, hostages home from north korea, new trade agreements with, new nafta agreement, rebuilding the wall, rebuilding our economy, these new peace deals with bahrain and the United Arab Emirates. And then to top it all off, big ten football. I mean, thats amazing. So this president goes against the convention aal wisdom, does what he says lou congressman hell do the same thing with china. Lou you know, you would think you had a personal interest in big ten football. This leaves the pac12 as the only member of the power five yeah. Lou who will not be playing football apparently. It was a political decision by the big ten, the commissioner of the big ten made an awful decision. Do you think hell survive it . Well, well see. What i do know is the vote was 311 not to play a few weeks ago. President trump gets involved and what was the vote yesterday . 140. Football is back in the midwest, football is back in the big ten, and thats good for those young student athletes, for all student athletes at the college level, and its good for the country. So this was a total one for the do you think biden could accomplish that . No way. Lou well, i dont know if hes got i dont even know if he has a tv in that basement, so well probable never know. Congressman, im sorry were shortened. The president has decided to lot more important, hes a lot more important than me, lou. [laughter] thanks so much. Keep it up. Lou you bet. And theres a great metaphor in all of this in the big ten. Follow this president , follow his leadership and you get both unity and results that everyone desires. The lou dobbs tonight the quote of the day from china joe biden, he said and were going to ask you to be patient, see if you understand what he tried to saw. Apparently, he was talking about getting military veterans in the private sector. See what you divine from his remarks. Thats what we spent a lot of time doing in our administration, getting, providing significant number of government jobs in the federal government because if you could take, if you were a quarter master, you could sure in hell take cower running, you know care running, you know, a Department Store thing, you know, and the second floor of the ladies department, you know what i mean . If you have been responsible for a couple billion dollars worth of tax, you can sure handle a distributing whats few for a, you know capacity for, you know, i dont know, fedex, you know . You can do it. Lou democrats, thats your president ial nominee. Ron johnson, senator johnsons Homeland Security or committee has voted along party lines to authorize obamagate subpoenas. The committee will now call in some 40 obamaera officials for closed door testimony. That list includes former cia director john brennan, former director of National Intelligence james clapper, former fbi director james comey. And johnson, senator johnson today pulled a separate vote to subpoena the u. S. Ambassador to slovakia, bridget brink. She is to answer questions about the energy firm burisma and their ties to their board member, hunter biden, son of the democrat president ial nominee. Johnson says brink will come in voluntarily, her decision falls in favor of johnson. The president is advancing toward the briefing room. Hes are there at the , at the stand. Last night as a category 2 hurricane and 35 inches of rainfall in some pluses. Thats a lot. We have hundreds of fema, coast guard, we have the National Guard personnel on the ground assisting response to the efforts, and alabamas in great shape and every place that we are working with the state governments, really in great shape. We are working very hard on that, but it hooks like its going to be mostly safe but just follow the instructions of all of your local and federal people there. We have the best people that you can have, so i want to thank everybody. I want to thank everybody for working so hard in florida, and theyre very good at this. The people in florida handle it, they know how to handle it, and the people working there know how to handle it. The governors have all been spoken to, and its a combination of real spirit. They have a tremendous esprit de corps, they have a tremendous sense of working on hurricanes. Theyve gotten very good at it, and weve certainly had plenty. Even since ive been here, weve had a lot of them. Thats in good shape, hurricane sally. Were going to talk about big ten football, but thats a terrific thing. Well disthat at the end, i just want to go into the Vaccine Distribution. Today my administration released our Detailed National Vaccine Distribution plan, and that includes a plan to unsure that we swiftly deliver the vaccine directly to americas Senior Citizens in Nursing Homes, and its all set. We have our military lined up, everybodys lined up, and we think thats going to go very nicely. Were very close to that vaccine, as you know. And i think closer than most people want to say or certainly closer than most people understand. To get the vaccine into the hands of American People, were fully mobilizing the i awesome power of american industry and also our military. This is the largest, fastest and most advanced Vaccine Distribution effort in American History but far. I was reading where biden was saying that, oh, hes going to have a plan. They did so bad on swine flu, you wouldnt even believe it. Take a look at their record on swine flu. In fact, the person that headed it up said it was a total disaster. Were on track to deliver the vaccine in a very, very safe and effective manner. By we think they can start sometime in october. Is so as soon as its announced, well be able to start. Thatll be from mud october on. Mid october on. It may be a little bit later than that. So as soon as its given the go ahead, theyre doing trials, as you know, and we will get it out, defeat the virus. Weve manufactured all of the necessary supplies so that as soon as the fda a approves the vaccine and as you know, were very close to that well be able to distribute at least 100 million vaccine doses by the end of 2020 and a large number much sooner than that. Im calling on biden to stop promoting husband antivaccine his antivaccine theories because all theyre doing is hurting the importance of what were doing. And i know that if th
