A look at the latest news and headlines of the day features discussions of politics and culture, analysis of political correctness in Campus Craziness and... we have tremendous respect for china, the energy and the genius, it's incredible what they've done. but we can't do it, it has to be a two-way street. we only have one way streets not only was china but everybody. our enemies, our friends, our allies. our allies treat us worse than our enemies. it's all changing and when we get those trade deals done properly, sir, can you get this done immediately? he it's got to take time, it's like -- it's got to just state. like when you are cooking a turkey. thanks giving my mother would say, eight hours. i said, eight hours? she made the greatest turkey i've ever had. it takes time. so they run and they say, can you do nato right now? can you sign it next week? and i said look. i like mexico, and i like the new leader. i think he's going to be terrific. a little different than us, and i think i'm doing better with him than with the capitalists. he knows that mexico needs the united states. they need the united states. canada charges us close to 300% tariffs which is essentially saying we don't want your dairy products. they have a wall called an economic wall. i mean justin, justin trudeau, nice guy. but they've taken advantage of us for so many years that we have to take our time. with that being said, we are doing very well. we are on our way with a good deal. fair with mexico. and when china makes a car, they sell it into the united states. and they sell it into china and there is a 25% tariff, and that's just the beginning. there are others. a man was driving down a street in china and he looked over, and it was a chevrolet like camaro. does that make sense? he's in beijing. and tell me, how much did that car cost in china? that guy looks $119,000. you understand, that's all taxes and more taxes. we can't do that anymore. we are a country with unbelievable potential. we are a country that has been ripped off by anybody and we are not going to be ripped off anymore. and if it takes me a little angst to tell senators and congressmen and all of the people that really do have their heart in their hands, and sometimes i don't know where people are coming from with their suggestions, it will take that time. with that being said we are moving so fast that i can't even believe it. and we are not going to let them rob us anymore. every day we are keeping our promises, canceling obama's illegal anti-coal destroying regulations. the so-called clean power plan. doesn't that sound nice? clean power. you know when i ended the paris accord, what's a more beautiful name than the paris accord? let's call it the west virginia accord. that was going to cost us hundreds of billions of dollars. hundreds of billions. in other countries as an example, china, didn't kick in until many years in the future. and we all agree, we all want a clean environment. and i want crystal clean water and we got it. we've got the cleanest country in the planet right now. there is nobody cleaner than us and it's getting better and better. it's part of our companies, our states and our jobs. just today, that helps our coal-fired power plants and saves consumers, you, me, everybody, billions and billions of dollars. we have eliminated a record number of job killing regulations and republicans have passed and reforms. and nobody knows what that means, that could be a tax increase. and they looked at me and they said, we don't know. , they had the 2018 tax reform. are you going to raise taxes? and tax reform, i said nobody knows what it means. but they said nobody knows what it means. i want to put it down, tax cuts. they said what would be your favorite name, mr. president? and i said, the tax cut cut cut bill. and we almost did it, and in this case congressman, a couple of them are a little bit tacky, and we have done great reform. and you people are benefiting. companies are benefiting and those companies are the ones that are providing all of the jobs and setting records on jobs. we are protecting also so important for west virginia and a lot of states, and we are protecting religious liberty. we are also standing up to social media censorship, that's the new thing. i'd rather have fake news then have anybody including liberal socialists, anything, then have anybody stopped and sensitive. we have to live with it. everyone of us is sort of like a newspaper. you have twitter, or whatever you have, you have facebook. but you can't pick one person and say, we don't like what he's been saying, he's out. so we will live with fake news. i hate to say it but we have no choice because that's by far the better alternative. you can turn around, it could be them next. we could be the right of americans to speak their minds. we want to give critically ill patients access. we want the right to try. do you know what the right to try is? for 40 years, they couldn't get it. the patients are terminally ill. they are very sick. i know people, if they have money they travel all over the world to try to find the cure and if they don't have money, they died. we have the greatest scientists in the world which is why china and so many other people are trying to steal our technology. we can't let that happen. and they want to be able to give -- it's like hope. it's the right to try. if that person is terminally ill, we have a great new drug but it will take two or three years to have it approved. maybe longer. but the tests are really looking good. this prison is very sick and this person is going to be dead, in 90 days. we couldn't get that drug for that person, no matter who you will. and the insurance companies have had problems, the medical companies, everybody. i said what's going on? we are going to take the right to try and we went through with the help of corey, with the help of your great and wonderful -- you are a cold lover, aren't you, shelley? soon to be with the help of patrick. patrick's going to a lot of things. we got it approved. so now if we have a great drug that hasn't been approved and somebody has a certain illness, they will be able to try. and you know what, some of its drugs that we have in the pipeline are amazing, and it's going to give them hope. we have just secured $6 billion to fight the opioid epidemic, and i know in west virginia that's a big deal. we confirmed a record number of circuit court judges, it's a record a growing bigger and bigger. we have a lot of them in the line if sumer would ever get them approved. he's not exactly thrilled about approving them. and, as i just said, how do you vote against him? the democrats may find a way. we secured a record $700 billion for our military this year and $716 billion. billion, with a b. our military will be stronger and bigger and better and more sophisticated than it has ever been. and you don't get a lot of good fighters out here. the stronger your military, the better chance you have of never having to use it. we don't want to use it. and all of that equipment is being built here in the usa. we make the biggest ships in the world, we make the greatest ships and rockets. and, the space force. that's very exciting. that's the new frontier and i'm not just talking about sending rockets to the moon, i'm talking about militarily, that's where it's at. thanks to the leadership of u.n. ambassador nikki haley, we have reduced the united nations spending by $1.3 billion saving u.s. taxes, $350 million just came out but nobody wants to write that. we just passed the landmark va accountability. we say we are fired, get the heck out. 45 years. 45 years they are trying to pass. they also pass veterans choice, they have a right to see a private doctor. they don't have to wait in line for three weeks, four weeks, eight weeks or two months. i withdrew the united states, from the horrible iranian nuclear deal. and this month we reimpose some sanctions on iran's nuclear program, and i also recognized the capital of israel and opened the american embassy. and i understand now, what happened? they said it, we are going to do it. we are going to move our embassy to jerusalem, it will be the capital of israel and we are going to do it. and then, they don't do it. politicians don't do it. so i said i'm going to do it during the campaign. i said i will do it right here in west virginia. and i now understand why many, many presidents before me said they were going to do it and didn't do it. because i was inundated with calls from foreign leaders, every country. don't do it, don't do it, please don't do it. so actually what i did, i was about five days off. i stopped taking calls and i said, i will return your call next week. because i knew that what they were going to ask me. so, i approved it. so i should have done that years ago. and with the palestinians, it was a good thing to be done. every time there was peace talk talks, they never got past. in the negotiation israel will have to pay a higher price because they want a very big thing but i took it off the table. they could never get by. you understand that, corey. you both understand that, shelley. they could never get past the fact of jerusalem becoming the capital. now it's off the table. there's nothing to negotiate. but, it's their term next, let's see what happens. i've always heard that's the toughest steel of all deals, it's called peace between israel and the palestinians. and instead of paula apologizing for america, we are standing up for america and we are standing up for those that defend our country we must elect more republicans, we must elect patrick morrissey. we need him. we need patrick. so get your friends, your neighbors, your coworkers, get the people that love our country and get out to vote. we need this energy. loyal citizens like you, returning power to where it belongs to the american people. this great state, they were settled by pioneer men and pioneer women, who tamed the wilderness to build a better life for themselves and for their incredible american families. they didn't have a lot of money, they didn't have a lot of luck, but they had to grit and they had a faith and they loved each other. and i will tell you what, they were smart. we are the smart ones. remember. i say it all the time, you hear the elite. they are not elite, we are elite. you have more money and have better jobs than they do, eat they are the elite. so let them have the word, elit elite. i always say, the elite decided not to go to something i'm doing. right, the elite. well, i have more money than they do. i have a much better education than they have. and i have many much more beautiful homes then they do. i have a better apartment at the top of fifth avenue. why are they the elite? because you are the elite. aren't you insulted when they say, the elite? to me, and the consulted. your people and the people that preceded you in west virginia where the carpenters and the coal miners, the ministers, the farmers of the factory workers. .they all have one thing in common. they love their family, they love their country and they love their god. [cheers and applause] we stand on the shoulders of generations of america on patriots who knew how to fight and it knew how win. we are winning again. just like then, we will keep on finding and keep on winning and we are going to win for our continued freedom. i joked that i will have patrick morrissey coming to me soon. it will be your senator, and he will say mr. president, the people of west virginia can't stand winning so much. they haven't won in decades and now you are winning with coal and when with everything. he's going to say, patrick, he's going to say, mr. president, please. they don't want to win so much, they can't stand it. please, you are winning too much for west virginia. while i don't care what the people of west virginia want to, we are going to keep on winning, because i believe that's what they want. that's what they want. because the people of west virginia never give up, and they never backed down. because we are american, and are hearts bleed at red, and blue. we are one family and one nation under glorious god. and we will make america wealthy again. that's happening a lot faster than the fake news ever said it could happen. we will make america strong again. we will make america safe again, and we will make america great again. thank you west virginia, thank you. ♪ >> tucker: "you can't always get what you want," the signature ending to a presidential rally. tammy bruce has been watching the speech in west virginia and the events of today and she joins us tonight with a recap. tammy, tell me what you thought of the president's remarks in light of everything that happened in the news. >> while he was on his game frankly more than i've ever seen him. he clearly loves what he is doing still. he had a message he wanted to impart, and he did so. i never realized his outgoing theme song was a message to the elite, but apparently days at this point. they are not getting what they want. this was an unflappable man. there was a lot of news today, but some of it wasn't necessarily surprising. it's been baked into what we've been watching for the last year or year and a half. so it's not surprising in the president of course signaled his approach when he was going to this rally, reiterating his feeling about the mueller investigation, that nothing that happened today was about the special counsel and the so-called russian collusion. his team today today at this rally was a reminder of what he has accomplished for them and, more than that being in a state with people that the democrats took for granted. that democratic administration effectively abandoned, that hillary and obama wanted to destroy and change by getting rid of coal. he reminded them that he's with them, he's a part of them and they are with him. so this is what you will see leading up to the midterms. an optimistic man remaining confident. he mentioned the mollie tibbetts murder, but obviously it so early at this point, not going into the details there but making it very clear with what it also is leading up to the midterms, the red wave means safety and strength. the blue wave would mean open borders and crime. so that's the message you are going to be hearing leading into the midterms and the one i think that resonates. >> i think -- i was however surprised to learn that michael cohen was taking commission for saving a broken bag, and apparently it's extremely expensive and he made 30 grand apparently brokering the deal and didn't pay taxes on it. i found that kind of amusing. >> even the elitist products, they might come back to bite you. >> it's a message from the lord. thanks for having me. this is a a fox news alert. as i mentioned paul manafort was found guilty on eight counts of financial evasion. michael cohen pled guilty to criminal charges of his own and a lot happened. >> the michael cohen case could prove to be more damaging to the president legally and politically because he was directly implicated. far cry from the paul manafort case. the former trump campaign chair found guilty on five counts of filing false income tax returns, one count failing to file a report of a foreign bank account into charges of bank fraud. the jury could not reach a verdict on ten other counts and prosecutors have until the end of the month to decide on a possible retrial. it is also the possibility that paul manafort will be pardoned by the president. and, there is no allegation of any wrongdoing against the president and the government's charges against mr. cohen. his actions reflect a pattern of lies and dishonesty over a significant period of time but, cohen's plea deal indicates he broke the law. but between the 43 and 63 and campaign finance charges that have been mentioned, including two women that alleged affairs with the president that he vehemently denies. remember, no campaign finance law was broken in this plea deal contradicts that statement and raises questions about whether the president or anyone else from the campaign will be implicated. >> tucker: at its core, a confusing story, really. they retired harvard law professor, he joins us now to help sort this out. the paul manafort story seems pretty cut and dry, he's convicted of tax evasion and most people think he did it. but cohen, part of this guilty plea includes money that he moved and that's a very common scenario. you see a lot of that in the past, is that illegal? how is that a crime? >> that in itself is not a crime end of the president had paid it directly it would not be a crime. the allegation here is it was cohen who paid it and made a campaign contribution which he didn't report, at the direction of the president. some stations are already playing the funeral music for president trump, but this is much more complicated and much more nuanced. first of all the crime itself is very, very vague. they try to put edwards, the former presidential candidate on trial and of course got an acquittal. but second, it really depends completely on the credibility of cohen. remember as judge ellis said it, when they squeeze people like manafort or cohen, they squeeze them not only to sing but sometimes to compose and they embellish the story. they did pay the money, and all he has to do then is say, and the president directed me to do it. that's a kind of embellishment the people put on a story when they want to avoid dying in prison. you can die in prison, or give me a story that i can use to go and get the president. the risk of that happening is what judge ellis talked about, and we may see that at work here. so we are a long way from tolling the bells for this administration. it's a bad day, it's a negative day but not a fatal one. >> tucker: but i'm so confused, if somebody comes to you and says, -- if someone says give me money or i will humiliate you in public, and you do give that person money, that's a campaign donation? >> not if you make it yourself. but if somebody else pays the money in order to influence the outcome of the election, that it is technically perhaps a violation of the election laws. and they never tried them again. but again, a violation of election laws are regarded as kind of jaywalking in the realm of things about elections. and there are so many of them. every administration violates the election laws, every candidate violates the election laws when they run for president. usually they pay a fine or something like that happens. here they are trying to elevate this in an impeachable offense or a felony against the president. they may name the president as an unindicted coconspirator, they did that with nixon. even back then i complained about that because naming somebody because they have no opportunity to defend himself or herself and yet that may happen. this is the beginning of a story that will unravel over time but it's not nearly as deadly lethal as some have portrayed it as being. >> tucker: is certainly confusing. thank you for explaining that. >> president trump: you heard about today the illegal alien coming in, very sadly, from mexico. and you saw what happened to that incredible, beautiful young woman. that should have never happened. he legally in our country. we have not had a huge impact but the laws are so bad and immigration laws are such a disgrace. >> tucker: that was a president moments ago. for the last month, i ones have searched and prayed for a missing college student called mollie tibbetts. today tragically, her body was discovered. the suspect is an illegal immigrant who led them to the body in a cornfield. national correspondent matt finn is in iowa tonight with details. >> tucker, mollie tibbetts' body was found in a cornfield not far from where i'm standing and 24-year-old christian rivera has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of 20-year-old to mollie tibbetts. police say rivera has been in the country illegally and tonight we are learning more about his background. so far we have learned that i.c.e. has placed a retainer on rivera and say that he is here from mexico. it is one of the lead investigators giving us more details on christian rivera. >> we have confirmed with homeland security investigations that he is an illegal alien, and we believe he has been in this area for a 47 years. >> investigators say that rivera confessed that on july 18, the day that she went missing, he approached her and followed her while she was jogging. she spotted him and said, leave me alone, i'm going to call police and took out her cell phone. rivera told police he continued to follow her and then blacked out and doesn't remember what happened after that. he came to in a rural area not far from here. authority saved this morning rivera led them to a remote location about 13 miles from her hometown, and that is where they found what they believe is the body of mollie tibbetts. it was a surveillance video that was submitted to them that showed mollie jogging and then, rivera is a black vehicle. police say that he did see mollie prior to the day that he allegedly murdered her. it's not clear how often he saw her but police will also clarify in the coming days whether he may have been stalking her. mollie tibbetts was set to return to the university of iowa is a sophomore this year and her father, rob tibbets was on the ground here for 30 days pleading for information leading to the arrest or conviction of anyone involved in the disappearance of his daughter. he even went to the iowa state fair to hand out flyers, begging for information. after 30 plus days he has now learned that his daughter has been found, dead. tucker? >> tucker: thank you. as with the kate steinle case, it looks like a young american might still be alive if the country were willing to simply enforce its own federal laws. luis miranda is joining us tonight. so, the line where the rest of us are kind of forced to accept is, all immigrants are great people, better than us in fact. and if we suspect otherwise, we are bad people. if we point to evidence proving otherwise than we are flat out bigots and we should be quiet. why don't americans have a right to police their own borders and say, if you are not here legally, you have to leave now? >> i'm glad that you are giving us the opportunity to have this discussion because democrats, lukens, immigrants and dependents, all alike, we can agree that these heinous crimes have no place regardless of who does them. just this week we found out that a white man in denver killed his wife and two beautiful young daughters. also tragic, just as this young woman in iowa whose death is a huge tragedy. >> tucker: luis, i didn't say anything about this man's race, the story is not about race. don't make it about race, stop that. i was saying this is about nationality and citizenship, this man had no right to be here. that's the difference. in the first place, he didn't have a right to be here in the first place. he should not have been here, his presence violated federal law. you and your party tell us that we are racist for wanting to enforce our laws, but it has everything to do with whether we think laws are real. >> we both agreed that the immigration system is badly broken, horribly broken. and people who don't have a way of fixing that have oftentimes been republicans. >> tucker: no you don't, this is just spin. why don't we as american citizens, you, me, our neighbors, everyone, everyone who was an american have a right to say, if you don't have a right to be here, when did we lose that right? >> people who you own big corporations who are inviting these people to come work oftentimes have depressed wages. and that is recovery and reconstruction after katrina. >> tucker: two hands -- >> the african-american unemployment rate in new orleans it remains very high. they didn't help the americans who needed the help. i agreed to his eternal shame. that's one of the main things to be ashamed of. but i have a simple question. you must verify the legal status of your employees, and if you can't, you can't employ them. >> one of the things that we tried to do under the immigration bill -- >> tucker: universal e-verify. because democrats are totally against it now. totally. they take money from these employers -- >> that included it and it included border security, it included verification. >> tucker: but that's not true true? democrats right now ask members -- the 40 odd democrats in the senate, are you universally verified? if you can't prove that your employees are legally in this country, then you can't employ them. i'm sorry, it's 2018. we added border patrol agents. how do you use your resources, and the problem that i have right now is we have immigration agents shaking down moms taking their kids to school instead of looking for real criminals be one here was a real criminal, and that if we eliminate i.c.e. as democrats are calling for then how do we police our immigration laws? we can't. you represent a party that would like to eliminate immigration enforcement. >> it turns into this kind of debate that takes away from the reality, that we need a safe and secure border. we need someone who is actually stopping the flow of illegal guns and drugs north and bulk cash south. the one i'm sorry, this is disingenuous. the country is flooded with heroin from mexico. >> we are both in agreement on that. but when you politicize it, and -- >> tucker: you are not telling the truth. okay, thank you, i appreciate i it. the left is already hyping up its base for the 2020 election, but could their priorities be hurting them in the upcoming midterm? the great dana perino joins us next. ♪ ca and if i
