This was the place to be in evansville tonight for the Campaign Says more than 12,000 people packed in for tonights rally adds another couple thousand who couldnt get in watched the rally on big screens outside with the president spoke to more than an hour. His focus was on the midterm elections, he also talked a lot about immigration, i. C. E. , and the economy. He also made a bit of news. Just a few hours after saying attorney general Jeff Sessions was safe in his job, at least until november, tonight the president went back to laying the groundwork for his dismissal by going after the agencies that sessions overseas. Our Justice Department, and our fbi have to start doing their job and doing it right on doing it now. Because people are angry. I wanted to stay out but at some point, if it doesnt straighten out properly, i want them to do their job. I will get involved and ill get in there if i have to. More than anything, though, this was about the midterm elections, rallying support from Republican Senate hopeful mike brown, who is looking to unseat democratic senator jill donnelly. The president said he needs more republicans in office to help pass his agenda, and unveiled a new nickname for donnelly. A vote for mikes opponent, sleepy joe, is a vote for Chuck Schumer, nancy pelosi, and who else . Maxine waters. [boos] we need republicans in congress. [cheers and applause] todays Democrat Party is held hostage by leftwing haters, angry mobs, deep state radicals, establishment cronies, and their fake news allies. Remember, President Trump won indiana by 19 points in the 2016 election. So throughout the senate race, both candidates have been trying to tie themselves to the white house. Tonight, braun argued voters can rely on him to support the drop agenda all the way. He needs a true valet, not somebody that says something wou are in indiana and do something differently when youre in d. C. Senator donnelly tells us he was not able to watch tonights rally because he was on his way back to d. C. For senator mccains memorial. In a statement he said we are always happy to have President Trump in indiana but hoosiers want a senator who always puts them first before any politician or political party. They know that is what i have been for them and its what ill continue to be as their senator next year. Shannon, tonight, the rally was one of the first of dozens the president plans to hold between now and november to help get more republicans in office and try to help the g. O. P. Holds onto their majorities in both houses in congress. Shannon he wants to be out there. Garrett tenney, thank you very much. Weve seen a wave of drumbacked candidates score important wins in primaries. A good record on that. Republican ron desantis because the president the 800pound gorilla in republican politics, nobody, desantis says, is more influential in motivating voters. Now we see the president were pushing for mike brown in indiana. Will it be enough to flip a Key Senate Seat from blue to red . Fox News Politics editor Chris Stirewalt is here. Good evening. The president very fired up in indiana, as we often see him. What i find interesting is that most of both of us in candidatn this race have embraced the president. We have a clip from a democrat campaigning. The fact is, joe donnelly works are for hoosiers, joining with President Trump to build a wall and protect our borders. Shannon it sounds like both of them are going to trump a task like. In indiana, they need to. They are a very republican state. Indiana has gone, i believe, twice, essentially, since the new deal, for a democratic nominee. One of of the most republican states. Mike pence was the governor. Joe donnelly should be dead made by any rights. But he has one advantage nobody knows or nobody knew who mike braun is. Now that allowed him to and make the republican nomination because people there were two congressmen running, incumbency is in bad order so the guy that nobody knows sounded better than the two people nobody likes. He managed to slip through. That is fine and the primary part in the general, that is a problem. What limited polling there is said that donnelly was in good shape. But now, braun is getting famous, and nothing is going to get him as famous as cheaply and effectively as having the president come in and this is always the funny part about the trump stuff. I hate the news media, they are filthy dogs, they are caged animals dash go shannon well talk about that. And then its like, but the coverage that it generates is what is going to help mike braun, and this rally will be a huge help for mike brown. If only for the fact that every newspaper, every television outlet in indiana is going to say mike browns name 55 for julian times and put his image on television i will get his name identification not because all he needs in this race is fon voters in indiana to vote for republicans, democrats to vote for democrats, hell win by 15 points. Shannon last night there was a democratic debate in new york and they got a little rockers. Cynthia nixon, the actors who is running against cuomo, polling for her is terrible. Although she is made up some ground. A tough road. This is what the New York Times said. Shannon polls have shown hg badly, pointing to alexandria ocasiocortez, shocking defeat of representative joe crowley in new york city in june, more recently the nomination of andrew gillum, who ran as a unabashed progressive. Any surprises coming and new york . If only buffalo looked just like the bronx. If buffalo looked just like the bronx, then, yes. She could have a ocasiocortez moment. But there are democrats, i hate to break it to the nixon campaign, there are democrats outside of new york city in new york. She is very liberal. Very, very liberal. So she is out of step in that way. Which he has done, though, is effectively terminate cuomos ambitions for the future. She has shown him up to be what he is, which is a massively overrated political talents. This is a guy who we come up for years, heard how good he is. That debate, he was were redonkulous. He was horrible. Remember back to america was never that great she has tamped him. Shannon how do you really feel . [laughs] shannon good to see you. The president says 85 of the press is terrible. Calling out the media at tonights rally. Got a lot of cheers. Kristin fisher is here with the latest escalation of the war that have President Trump is having with the media. Good evening. President trumps attacks on the press have really picked up over the last week. At tonights rally, he essentially accused the media of trying to help democrats win back todays Democrat Party is held hostage by leftwing haters, angry moms, deep state radicals, establishment cronies, and their fake news allies. Our biggest obstacles, and there were greatest ally actually is the media. You can believe it. This comes after a series of very personal attacks against top News Executives and journalists on twitter. Today he took the unprecedented step of seeing that both andy lack, the editor of nbc, and jeff stalker, the head of cnn, should be fired. He also fired at Carl Bernstein presented by a report that said that her merchant employer, michael colon, believe the president did know about that ir meeting in advance even though cohens attorney, laney davits, admitted that he was a source for the report that he made in error, he could not confirm it. Bernstein and cnn are standing by the report because they say davis was not the only source. What we are watching in the Trump Presidency is worse than watergate. This is the greatest journalistic challenge of the modern era, to report on a malignant presidency. Another challenge the White House Briefing was over a week ago, making it tougher reported to get questions answe. The president has taken a few questions open to a few number of reporters commanded one of those events, the head of u. S. Soccer officials, he jokingly tossed a red card to the report is in the room, kicking them out. But there are concerns that these kind of verbal attacks against the media could turn much more serious, and just today, the fbi arrested a man for repeatedly threatening violence against the boston globe newspaper. Officials say those threats included the phrase enemy of the people made popular by President Trump. Shannon Kristin Fisher, thank you very much. Our next two guests witness firsthand the daily battles between the president and the media. Spring and White House Correspondent jess mason of the White House Correspondent for the daily caller , saagar enjeti. Thank you for being here tonight. I want to play you what the president have to say about all of this tonight. These are just dishonest, terrible people. Im telling you this. Terrible people. Not all of them. Honestly, not all of them. I would say 85 . Shannon rb in the 15 . [laughter] im not sure. Shannon how was the mood at the white house these days . There is frustration that there hasnt been a briefing in a while, that was just mentioned previously. Its true that we are getting opportunities to ask questions of President Trump and that is good but we always want more access and more ability to ask questions because there is no dearth of news going on right now. It is to be part here is a little bit of both the Vice President had to say about how the president plays with the media and the american public. All i know, for a lot of the liberals in the national media, they met their match and president donald trump. He understands. The American People elected this man because he had a right vision for this country but also because hes a fighter. Shannon saagar, it is a benefit both sides . The president loves having an opponent, no matter who it is, he loves that back and forth. There are some of the media that are becoming celebrities in their own right because of their constant warring with the president. Thats not necessarily incorrect but its unfortunate on both sides, as you point out. It can be played up for ratings by the president loves to point out. Hell say, they are my least favorite fans, when you get ratings, you can say anything. I believe he said that tonight. It is a backandforth relationship in which might be mutually beneficial but its on a unfortunate. Shannon i want to read a little but from a media analyst. The journalistic world cant be using unnamed sources who have a reason to be playing the reporters, and when stories fall apart, News Organizations need to be big enough to acknowledge human errors. Cnns refusal to source the story out in front of the public lend support to the right leaning critics who suggest cnn is more about each of the trump on the thing getting stories to be factually correct. The backandforth about lanny davis, Michael Cohens attorney being a source and that kind of thing. Does it landmark of these critics on the right, jeff, if there is not complete transparency, exactly how things went down . Absolutely. If a News Organization get something wrong, if i as a reporter get some thing wrong, if my colleagues get something wrong, we have a responsibility to correct that. Regarding the issue of Anonymous Sources, though, it is very difficult to work in this town without people talking to journalists who requested anonymity. That includes sources at the white house, including people who are paid spokespeople, they will say to reporters, not attributable to me as a spokesperson, not attributable to my name. I. E. , as a reporter, always prefer to have been on the recod quote. I think it that is what we should strive for. Its not always possible. Shannon if i have something, from an anonymous source, and one of my coworkers as a victim of an anonymous source, and we can tell each other who they were, saagar, you run the possibility that you were working from the same well. Part of the issue is, we run amok in the use of Anonymous Sources in d. C. Because it is much easier when everyone will say, well put her on background. We dont spend enough time fighting to put people on the record. Because it is much easier to maintain a source relationship. They dont want to put their names out there and on a story and its our job as journalists to push them as hard as we possibly can to go on the record. I think its important for public figures, if you are criticizing the use of Anonymous Sources, to encourage the people who you are working with, who work for you, to go ahead and speak in the record. Shannon true. We would all like that. Saagar and jeff, thank you very much. How do pivotal hearings on capitol hill, President Trump pumping up Brett Kavanaugh tonight. His nominee to become the next two Supreme Court justice. We need to elect senators who will vote for judges, follow our laws, and our constitution as written. Shannon a very interesting gassed up next. He is on the witness list for the hearing next week. He put himself on a limb by backing Brett Kavanaugh. Stick around for a renowned tl Law School Professor who has a message for his fellow liberals. Get your groove on with one a day 50 .

Dont start humira if you have an infection. Be there for you, and them. Ask your gastroenterologist about humira. With humira, control is possible.
