angle." to a fox news alert. president biden is set to speak at 7:45 p.m. eastern on the supreme court's immunity ruling. we'll bring it to you when he comes out. but, first: another great day for trump and another bad day for the liberal media my top line legal thoughts are cray cray. >> look like wearing red jerseys or even maga hats basically the supreme court said in the past week no rules for the powerful, no rights for the powerless. >> imperial presidency now made concrete. >> it is about an imperial court imperial presidency. >> contrary to the ridiculous hyperbole from the left today. the high court's ruling isn't issue earning in the second come'6" caesar. what does the actual 6-3 opinion say? quote the nature of presidential power entitles a former president from absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preexclusive constitutional authorities. and that there is no immunity for unofficial acts. in other words, the president should be allowed to perform his constitutional duties as president without fear that unscrupulous prosecutors will craft crimes out of thin air to arrest their political opponent. which is exactly what we have seen the biden department of justice do to president trump. but, rather than cool, calm, reasoning from the left, after all this ruling benefits democratic presidents as much as it does trump, well, cue the panic. >> we are headed for a disaster in a way it's hard to think through. >> god only know what is damage could be done. it's a big step forward to having authoritarian president. >> it's five alarm fire. trump's supreme court has decreed him a king. i don't know if i have ever seen you this emotional. >> yeah. it is. it's so scary. >> jason: what new powers does the left thing the ruling gives the president? >> the president, like donald trump, can take a blatantly illegal act, slap the label, hey, this san official act. >> hurt a political opponent, according to this court, it doesn't matter. >> he could shoot someone in the middle of fifth avenue in new york and get away with it. we hopefully will not see him test that theory. >> the president can task them to assassinate somebody? >> we don't know because this thing ping-pongs back and forth, -- i don't think. jason jason unfortunately this lunacy isn't just contained to the media. justice sotomayor's dissent claims that the president can order seal team 6 to assassinate a rival. organize a military coup. and take bribes with immunity. it's one thing for the media to engage in this brazen irresponsible fear-mongering, it's another when a sitting supreme court justice is undermining the court's ruling by claiming without a shred of evidence that this ruling would allow the president to commit such blatantly unconstitutional actions. as justin thomas explains, in this case, there has been much discussion about ensuring that a president is not above the law. but, as the court explains, the president's immunity from prosecution for his official acts is the law. exactly the law protects the president so that he can perform his official duties in office. and assassinating one's rivals clearly falls outside that official duty. and the ruling lays oought clear example in which the president has immunity. trump met with the acting attorney general and ore senior justice department and white house officials to discuss investigating purported election fraud. trump is absolutely immune from prosecution for alleging conduct involving his discussions with the justice department officials. this is common sense. but, we know why the left would rather cloud this case and the ora of authoritarianism rather than explain the actual details. there happens to be an election coming up and they need a boogie man. >> what does this mean? practically, i think it means if you are joe biden, if you are a democrat, who is running for the president, your path right now is clear. you have to run against the supreme court. you have to run against this decision. this is not america. if you want to make america great again, you got to return to the rule of law. >> jason: i always love it when they say they want to return to the rule of law. yeah, we gotcha. all right, joining us now is matt whitaker, former acting attorney general under president trump and chris landau, former law clerk for justices scalia and thomas. quite a resume, gentlemen. thanks so much, chris, i want to go to you, first. clarify what this law says because all this hyper vent a little from the left about what it would do and how dangerous donald trump would be under -- it's just -- i mean, it's absurd. >> yeah. you are absolutely right. may made the point earlier. the court held that the president has immunity for his official acts. okay. not for unofficial acts that are within the scope of authority. either under the constitution or under statutes. a lot of these hypotheticals that people are coming up with, shooting people on fifth a&e, ordering assassinations don't even arguably come within any of the president's authorities. but what is important is that the president have the ability to carry out his constitutionally appointed functions without fear of a lawsuit. which is what this case is about. >> jason: and msnbc guest says at the they are too hyperbolic to talk about assassinations for goodness sakes. watch this. >> strikes me as a little bit odd and, perhaps, hyperbolic that our, you know, successive president also become cold blood assassins and try to hide that conduct behind this case. i would tell everyone to take a breath. watch the hearing below and then reassess. >> jason: matt, what's your take on all of this? >> that's the last time he will be on msnbc. the real question here -- the real question here is that jack smith overreached. he engaged in the use of novel legal theories that have never been used before. you saw him loads earlier this week on the interference with official acts statute. and now you are seeing him being curtailed and his theory that no president has any immunity from any act whether official within its core functions or not, it is just not the way the law has been for 230 years of american history. so, you know, these folks that are just like losing their minds over sort of a very common sense approach to presidential immunity, i think, are -- would rather just win the 2024 election than somehow continue this great american constitutional republic for another 250 years or more. >> jason: cnn is saying that alvin bragg's case against president trump could also be in trouble. >> do not be at all surprised if we see in the next couple days a motion from donald trump's legal team to throw out the verdict in the new york state case because some of the evidence that was introduced in that case had to do with conversations donald trump had with his advisers, including hope hix while he was in office. >> chris, what's your take on all this? how many of these cases are going to be in deep trouble? >> you know, it's just -- again, i think people are exaggerating. i think people need to take a deep breath a and, again, this is about the constitution. we are going to be studying in this case in law schools. people are going to be analyzing this case in 100, 200 years. this is about the president, our constitutional separation of power. anybody who looks at this as just being about the trump case has no idea what they're talking about. i mean, the supreme court understands that it's making law for the ages and it doesn't matter. like, who is the president? i mean, this could protect joe biden's hide because he would be subject to prosecution for having failed to enforce the immigration laws if somebody was murdered, many people have been murdered by illegal aliens. they could say well, joe biden, you are criminally responsible for that bell well, guess what? that was his official act. i think that makes it very hard for him to be prosecuted. again, it protects the presidency. not president trump. >> jason: i think it was a very reasonable opinion and much needed. matt and chris, i got to keep moving. thank you so much for joining us tonight on "the ingraham angle." i could appreciate it. all right, the supreme court has taken a sledge hammer to the democrats wants main election strategy lawfare from the from january 6th ruling last week to the immunity warning. the democrats plan to throw their rival in jail rather than campaign on the serious issues. of the high court has taken the issue off the dableg tore democrats. if its ruling abortion pill and would restriction emergency abortions. joining us now is ned ryun fiewrnsd and ceo of merge american majority. president biden is set to come peek here in just over a half an hour. what do you think president biden is going to talk about because they are running out of things to run on. >> jason, your guess is as good as mine. who knows what will come the of biden's mouth based off thursday's debate. we have no idea if it will even make sense. but i think you are right. in some ways, rational people what is taking place with the scotus rulings should be devastating to democrats except democrats don't operated in reality. their talking points won't be in shambles because they are a series of intentional insane lies. they will continue to double down on them. i'm convinced that they know of no other way, neurotic left pedals nay know a and it dependent to their vase. they the keep power. i do think you are absolutely correct. jack smith, all of these things are starting to fall apart. they desperately wanted them to take place before november 5th because the very essence of them was political to take out the chief political opponent of joe biden. and it is collapsing. i think what it is also highlighting is it is one of the main re-election -- campaign election strategies for biden was the lawfare. and now they will have to try to run on issues and quiets frankly they don't have much to run on. >> jason: look, one of the most important rulings to many do out of the court i believe in this session was actually the ruling against chevron deference. that really does more to take a sledge hammer. >> yes. >> to the bureaucracy if people really understood what that is. ned, none other than aoc she is dom sphowt swinging quote the supreme court has within consumed by it's up to congress to defend our nation from this aauthor terrible tar cure. i attend articles of impeachment 'upon my huron does that concern you? >> you expect stupid people to say stupid things and aoc never disappoints. all the supreme court was doing olding up separation of power. the president is immune for official acts. not immunity for up ploicial and and really clarifying the boundary. they want nothing to do with separation of powers. that's why they probably find this so disorientinged that the supreme court actually says separation of powers. >> jason: ned, thank you again for joining us. >> thanks, jason. >> jason: a fox news alert. president biden planning to comment on the supreme court immunity ruling this hour. we'll bring it to you when he does. and up next, we now know who is in charge of biden. coming up next. ♪ into the things that keep our food fresher, our families safer, and our planet cleaner. to help us get there, america's plastic makers are investing billions of dollars to create innovative products and new recycling technologies for sustainable change. because when you push for smarter solutions, big things can happen.

and it's not just politicians, the donors are lining up as well. their loyalty comes with dollar sounds. after a disastrous debate, biden raises $33 million? does that make sense to anyone? and now we know who is really in control. it's been that way for a while. jill and hunter. politico reporting jill and hunter were the loudest voices urging biden to stay in power. you know why? jill biden likes president president and hunter biden what's he going to do for business? probably not sell as many of those paintings if he is not the president. well, it's because of what a laura, she has been talking about this for years. >> we know what biden and hits handlers do care about. catering to the rich donors and enriching their sleazy family members. biden's focus if he is capable of any focus at all, is enriching his family as much as possible before he leaves this earth. >> jason: joining us now former congresswoman who he served in congress with tulsi gabbard is a fox news contributor. she knows about putting her country before her party and she joins us now. tulsi, it's always good to chat with you. always good to see you. >> likewise. >> what's your take on what is happening here? because this doesn't look like democracy. they want to bypass all those voters and do whatever the heck they want. >> well, you will remember, jason that, they didn't really have a democratic primary at all. they didn't give democrat voters in that primary an option, but here we find ourselves as we see all of this inner squabbling happening amongst democrats and influential people in the democratic smear about whether or not joe biden should remain the nominee or whether they should swap him out. and you look at why this infighting is happening. it's because they don't really care about what's best for the country, quite frankly, when you look at it really they don't care about joe biden. this isn't about loyalty to joe biden. they are trying to figure out how best they can stay in power. so they are trying to figure out is joe biden that winning horse or do they need to put him out to pasture and find someone else that they believe can win who will also be a figure head that they can be the puppet masters for and control. so, you pointed out jill and hunter biden but really i think there is something far more serious going on here about who is really in control. clearly joe biden showed the country in the debate that he is incapable of being the president and commander-in-chief. clearly is not calling the shots. so we should all be asking who is really calling the shots? and it's what we know to be the deep state. it's those are who are an unelected positions political figures, the military industrial complex. the national security state. their friends in the propaganda media. everyone who gets their power by knowing that they can control this figure head, which is why they are doing all they can to destroy trump. they know that he will expose them and dismantle their power. >> jason: yeah, that's exactly right. these puppet tears they don't want to be pushed off to the side. i mean, that is clear. you sigh a lot of the discussion on x out there, but i tell you a lot of it isn't about the incompetency, the ability to physically and mentally do the job. it's whether or not they can win an election. that's what they seem to be much more concerned about. now, president biden is going to come out and talk about this, as soon as he comes out. we will bring it to you live. but, what do you think the president is going to say about this latest supreme court ruling? is this him trying to show vigor after 4:00 p.m.? >> it seems to be the case given how limited his exposure is to the media and frankly to the country normally. but as we have seen he will be likely reading off a teleprompter and, once again, just pointing to the fact that you know, he is not the guy. he is not the gay who is in charge. like you said, jason, they are -- the powers that be in the democrat elite are concerned about winning, which is why when you look at some of the names that they're putting forward, whether it be kamala harris or whitmer or gavin or any of these others they are not talking about how these people differ on issues or agree on issues. they are not talking about issues at all. they know that regardless of which one of them they pick to be their horse, they are all going to continue to follow the instructions of the unelected shadow government that is in blaze and, again, whose power something threatened by donald trump. >> jason: i just want to remind people that president biden is going to come out and make an address about this latest supreme court ruling. chance comes out. we will bring it to you live. tulsi, i want to show you actually one more ad that the democrats are actually putting out now and get your reaction to this ad that they are putting out. watch this. >> folks, i know i'm not a young man. i know how to do this job! i know right from wrong! i know how to tell the truth! [cheers] >> i know, like millions of americans know, when you get knocked down, you get back up. >> jason: i mean, what's your fake on that, tulsi? >> you know, they are picking and choosing these soundbites, once again, just blatantly lying to the american people. i will give you just two brief examples from that debate where joe biden did not tell the truth. number one is he said that no service member has been killed under his administration as someone who still wears the uniform, that was a punch in the gut because there are 18 service members who were killed while serving overseas under his watch. and for him to be so unaffected by their sacrifice and the fact fight of their families is just absolutely unacceptable. secondly in the debate he said the only existential threat to humanity. the only existential threat to humanity is climate change, which again, as commander-in-chief for him to not recognize the greatest existential threat is nuclear war, which he has pushed us closer to than ever before in our country's history is yet another piece of evidence of why he is unfit to serve in the office of the presidency. >> jason: tulsi, we want to thank you for your service

literally trying spaghetti at the wall because they are desperate especially after biden's catastrophic debate performance last week. to say that somehow donald trump is the senile one when that is patently obviously false, to anyone who has eyes, shows you how desperate they are. and, you know, we have all known that the left are masters of projection. accusing donald trump and everybody else on the other side of what they themselves are guilty of. but now what they are doing is they are patently lying about president trump and who he is and his behavior and his record. because they are trying to cover for the fact that joe biden is all of the things that they accuse him of. and they are trying to cover for his corruption and his feebleness. >> anybody who spent serious time with president trump and i have have been fortunate to do that, is he sharp as a tack. the guy is wicked smart. is he on his game. no matter what is he doing from the crack of dawn until late at night it's unbelievable how much energy he has. but i want to remind you and everybody out there, remember when the left dismissed videos of biden appearing confused and lost in the recent months? and labeled them as cheap fakes in the election temperature we took from the white house? watch this: >> they are cheap fakes video done in bad faith. the right wing critics of president have a credibility problem. >> what they are going to see is deep fakes, cheap fakes. >> the white house is calling cheap fakes. amplified on conservative media. they are highly, highly misleading. >> we're hearing about so-called cheap fakes. playing out on right wing media. and all of this is to try make the case that biden is sling. is he confused and so on. >> cheap fakes. but what it is is truly deceitful behavior that is not rooted in truth. >> jason: you know, the biggest problem they have with all of that the american people got to see an hour and a half of each of them and it's crystal clear, one is clear and is sharp, and the other one well, maybe not so much. >> yeah. you know, the imperial media certainly got their propaganda talking points and all went out with marching orders and spread the big lie. look, you have the stark contrast of back-to-back presidents, back-to-back records of an incredibly successful presidency under president trump in every regard. of course, this historic

scott, thanks very much for joining us. i served with you in congress. i liked calling you tim. we will call you senator scott here. >> tim is great. good to see you, buddy. >> jason: democrats are in a really bad situation, right? they have a person who is declining. it's obvious. it's been going on for years. this is not just something that happened on thursday night. so, bringing out the president to address this immunity ruling, what do you think the white house is trying to do here? >> you know, they are looking for -- they are grasping at straws. listen, we saw the greatest failure in the middle of a debate in the history of the country. jason, it could not have been worse. listen, the democrats are trying to figure out who they want their nominee to be. president biden is scrambling. is he looking for something, anything to hold on to as is he in the middle of democrat quick sand. i can't think of a better week for president trump than right now. the supreme court has ruled in his favor and opposition to the weaponizing of the justice system. we have got president biden on the ropes with the democrats looking for another nominee. and he is so simply grasping at straws. it's a good day and probably the best week so far for you president trump. but it gets better. president trump's record is so strong, so powerful, so convincing that the democrats, their tribal union is breaking down. the african-americans and the hispanics coalition of color, it's starting to decent great because, the great opportunity party led by donald trump offers more for the future than joe biden could ever dream of offering and the proof is in the pudding. donald trump had the most remarkable four years and they are running scared. >> jason: well, this is the problem. the democratic party that built their house upon identity politics rather than strong policies, that's what they get. and i think what the nation is craving for and in is why you are right at the finish ryan here. potentially being the vice presidential candidate. i think america, they want competency. that's what they want. they want competency. >> absolutely. well, jason, you hit the nail on the head. under president trump that's exactly what we h our adversaries were afraid of donald j. trump. our allies knew he was loyal. he actually build a strong. >> jason: , that senator, senator. >> yes. >> senator? i got to cut you off here. weaver in less than two minutes. i need to bring in bret baier. the anchor of "special report" and fox news chief political anchor. bret, what can you tell us? >> bret: hey, jason, good evening, you are looking live there cross hall inside the white house. president biden will paulk counsel and deliver this -- these remarks. we are told they will be fairly short. and this is in direct response to the supreme court's decision on the immunity case. voting 6-3 along partisan lines. the within the majority opinion written by the chief justice giving immunity, pretty broad immunity for official acts as president. we are likely to hear a lot of comments from president biden that go along the decenting views from just sotomayor and others, here's the president of the united states, i believe, coming down to that -- the set up, the guys just ready to walk out in just a moment. but, jason, it's likely going to, as you were just mentioning, be a moment that this white house can take to deal with this ruling as opposed to talking about the implications and fallout from last week's debate that has been quite something to see in democratic circles as have you been talking about supreme court. their rulings i think that's what they are going to try to do -- focus their attention at this point. ruling also provides immunity for president biden should he be sue you had for illegal immigration, for afghanistan, for something else. here's the president of the united states. >> the presidency is the most powerful office in the world. it's an office that not only tests your judgment, perhaps even more importantly it's an office that can test your character. because you not only face moments where you need it courage to exercise the full power of the presidency, you also face moments where you need the wisdom to respect the limits of the power of the office of the presidency. this nation was founded on the principle that there are no kings in america. each, each of us is equal before the law. no one, no one is above the law, not even the president of the united states. but today the supreme court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed for all -- for all practical pursuances today's decision almost certainly means that there are virtually no limits on what a president can do. this is a fundamentally new principle. and it's a dangerous precedent because the power of the office will no longer be constrained by the law, even including the supreme court of the united states. the only limits will be self-imposed by the president alone. this decision today has continued the court's attack in recent years on a wide range of law established legal principles in our nation. from gutting voting rights and civil rights, to taking away a woman's right to choose. to today's decision that undermines the rule of law of this nation. i mean four years ago my predecessor sent a violent mob to the u.s. capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power. >> we all saw it with our own eyes. we sat there and watched it happen that day. attack on the police. the ransacking of the capitol, a mob, literally hunting down the house speaker, nancy pelosi. gallows erected to hang the vice president mike pence. i think it's fair to say it's one of the darkest days in the history of america. now the man who sent that mob to the u.s. capitol is facing potential criminal conviction for what happened that day. and the american people deserve to have an answer in the courts before the upcoming election. the public has a right to know the answer about what happened on january 6th, before they ask to vote again this year. now, because of today's decision, that is highly, highly unlikely. it's a terrie disservice to the people of this nation. so now, now the american people have to do what the courts should have been willing to do but would not, the american people have to render a judgment about donald trump's behavior. the american people must decide whether donald trump's assault on our democracy on january 6th makes him unfit for public office in the highest office in the land. the american people must decide if trump's embrace of violence to preserve his power is acceptable. prance most importantly, the american people must decide if they want to entrust the president once again the presidency to donald trump. now knowing he will be even more emboldened to do whatever he pleases whenever he wants to do it. you know, at the outset of our nation it was the character of george washington, our first president to find the presidency. he believes power was limited not absolute, oonged that power always resides with the people, always. now over 200 years later. today's supreme court decision, once again it will depend on the character of the men and women who hold that presidency that are going to define the limits of the power of the presidency. because the law will no longer do it. i know i will respect the limits of the presidential powers that i have for three and a half years. but any president, including donald trump, will now be free to ignore the law. i concur with justice sotomayor's dissent today. here's what she said. she said in every use of official power, the president is now a king above the law. with fear for our democracy, i dissent. end of quote. so should the american people dissent. i dissent. may god bless you all. and may god help preserve our democracy. thank you. and may god protect our children? [. >> president biden will you drop out of the race. >> [inaudible] >> why do you feel confident you should be the president? >> jason: that's addressing the supreme court ruling. let's bring in bret baier. bret, what was your take on that? >> bret: well, as predicted, he cited the dissent of justice sotomayor and said that it's important in his mind that former president trump faced this trial by the special counsel jack smith. but, it's really going to be almost impossible to get that trial before november election. you have to go -- it has to go back, according to the supreme court to judge chutkan. there has to be a determination of whether it was official or unofficial acts and then there is an appeals process that comes from that. it could end up back at the supreme court, which would take a lot of time. bottom line is that he is now running not only against donald trump, but against the supreme court and that is what he laid down, that marker. he did that in front of the small press pool. it wasn't the full panoply of the white house press corps. it was the press pool that is assigned every day. you saw he didn't take any questions as he walked off. did looked tanned more than he did on the debate stage. but, it is interesting that they chose to weigh in today and to cite the dissent of justice sotomayor in reacting to it. >> part of it did seem like he was giving a bit of a political speech there from the white house. i mean, he quickly turned to make it all about donald trump and the politics of the election as opposed to just the ruling. >> bret: right. he talked about january 6th. and he talked about essentially what i think you are going to see if he remains the nominee because it's so tough for democrats to unseat him if he decides not to step aside despite all the calls editorial boards and others circles for that to happen. i think that you are seeing, jason, the making, the blueprint of what this race is going to look like he is going to say giving trump the white house again would be worse because of what the white house did and the ruling they made today. bret baier, thank you. appreciate you joining us. we want to bring back in senator tim scott. senator, you saw this the comments from the president. what's your reaction? >> president joe biden just put a political target on the back of the supreme court. remember, the democrats have been talking for years about packing the court with 15 justices. >> the democrats have been talking for years about making puerto rico and d.c. states. this is a political decision to put a target on the back of the united states supreme court in order to win an election. i can't think of anything more misleading and disgusting than president biden bringing in to politics the supreme court of the united states. you will hear ads coming forth about more justices united states of america. you are going to hear ads about having more states in our union senate with more democrats so that they have a chance to make their voices seen on the supreme court for more liberal justices. this election has just become more important. the greatest threat to american democracy today has just become joe biden. position of weaponizing the justice system and now weaponizing the supreme court by making them a target for this upcoming election. we need a day of reckoning. we need four more years of donald trump. we need a justice system that we can count on and that means every single conservative and independent. we must vote in large numbers starting in september in north carolina and taking it all across this country. the time is now and we must act. >> jason: senator tim scott from the great state of south carolina. thank you so much for joining us. all right, we want to bring in victor davis hanson now, senior fellow at the hoover institution. what's your take on what the president did there from the white house. >> it was pretty rich. because this case would have never got to the supreme court had his own department of justice not appointed a special counsel that had a history of bias and went after the leading presidential opposition candidate to the president. and it wouldn't have come to the supreme court had fani willis not met with the white house counsel to strategy. it wouldn't have happened if the highest attorney in doj suddenly and at alvin bragg's prosecution. this was in response to the weaponization of the doj by none other than joe biden. second, it's very ironic jason because you see the special counsel, robert hur said that joe biden himself, while he was president, faced criminal liability. he had classified filings, which is a felony to be in his possession. he didn't notify anybody that he had them until he selected the special counsel to go after donald trump. and then he had a speech writer that had no security clearance that admittedly was looking at those files in the presence of joe biden. the only reason he wasn't prosecuted was robert hur determined that he was too infeebled and win the sympathy of a jury. you know, finally, they have been going after the supreme court. chuck schumer went out to the doors of the supreme court and called out by name justice gorsuch and kavanaugh and said you're going to weep the whirl wind. you don't know what is going to hit you then when protesters a year later started showing up including a potential assassin at the homes of the justices, merrick garland didn't enforce the law which was a felony to do that for political purposes to influence the supreme court decision. this was very tragic what joe biden just did. it was ironic, it was wrong and highly partisan and it's dangerous. >> jason: i think i would agree with all of that it is tragic. we need a supreme court with its independence the democrats are doing everything they can to make them dependent on whatever the political whim of the party in power and it's just disgusting. democrats have run out of things to run on. they can't run on the economy. this they can't run on the border. they can't run on protecting us oversays and all these wars that are going on. the mental and physical demise of joe biden is on display. so, they are going to pick, i guess, the supreme court. but a 6-3 ruling in this particular case is pretty convincing 6-3. >> yeah. especially when you seen what they have done to donald trump and what they will do to him again when is he probably going to be elected. and again, the irony is that joe biden violated his oath of office when he destroyed the southern border and allowed. illegally to enter the united states. a lot of people who felt that was a violation. as i said earlier he broke the law when he had his possession as president a classified file. >> jason: victor davis hanson thanks for joining us. i want to bring in ned ryun, founder and ceo of american majority. ned, what's your take on what the president said a few minutes ago from the white house? >> i saw a senile old man ranting that the left super majority, ie scotus is no longer under the control and actually doing constitutional -- fulfilling their constitutional role. i saw a bitter old man frustrated that his prosecutors can't continue their political lawfare against his chief political opponent because what the scotus majority said, jason, was just because your chief political opponent when he was in office in his presidency did things that he didn't like, that's not a crime, and then you can't throw your political rival into prison simply because you don't like him. and in the face of that and as response to that biden basically made the court a political target. >> the judicial prank stood up and said you can't do this executive branch and target your chief political opponent. that's what we just saw play out. >> well, this is the problem. and they are trying to grasp at anything. but i am really glad that chevron deference was taking down. if you want to get rid of the swamp that chevron deference is probably the most deficit san diego state to the swamp. >> exactly, no. the crack in the foundation of the administrative state began with their rejecting chevron deference, jason. and if donald trump wins and i hope that he will, day one, he continues to dismantle the administrative state. he says he wants to drain the swamp. the foundation of the swamp is the state. break the state, you drain the swamp, you get a chance to restore the republic and the chevron deference rejection is a massive step in the right direction. >> jason: ned ryun, thank you so much for joining us. all right, that's it for us tonight. i'm jason chaffetz in for laura ingraham. it's been a pleasure doing this. i hope you have a wonderful fourth of july weekend. i hope can you check out my book "the puppeteers."
