he totally ran circles around president biden in the gaza war. whether or not you believe that donald trump actually knew about israel's plans to strike iran, the president is on the record telling the american people, i did not want israel to do this. so if you take a step back, the american president has acknowledged one of two things. either he lied to the american people when he came out the day before or the day two days before and said, i don't want israel to attack iran. i don't think that's a good idea. we want to give diplomacy a chance. he campaigned on that. he said he doesn't want to start another war, or he was in on it with netanyahu and was lying to the american people, or he was being dog walked by netanyahu, meaning he did not know. netanyahu doesn't respect him. he knows that he can launch this war and drag america with him into this war, and certainly drag president trump with him into this war. and in either way, it makes the american president look really, really bad. either he's being dog walked by netanyahu or he lied to th

biden is no longer in the white house and their either, the door in israel, the u.s. is not asking for talks. president trump is clear to talk with a radiant and try to make a solution, but they -- talks will have to be inspections anytime, anywhere and any place. >> it's great to see you, especially on this very serious occasion. you know the president well and his thinking when it comes to iran and these issues. he also know the american first movement well, can you talk about some of the intrigue we heard with accusations the president may be getting involved there despite iran's long 35 year on americans in the middle east and elsewhere and how it plays into his broader doctrine? >> i think this has been overblown. two things, iran is not getting a nuclear weapon against us and israel and our allies and potentially millions of people. chanting with passion, death to america regime orders from don't believe that's most iranians but some supporters want to kill us and president trump is not going to let them the bomb, but number two, president trump is not going to

of beau biden. guest: a lot of the diminishment in president biden's cognitive ability seems to have come -- and this is not unusual -- seems to have come during periods of intense stress. obviously joe biden is somebody that has withstood a lot in his life. it is one of the reasons why his supporters love him so much. he is somebody that is able to get off the floor after life throws some of the cruelest twists of fate imaginable. in 2015 he lost his beloved son to brain cancer and a top aide told us that it was like watching the then-president -- then-vice president's psyche, like watching somebody pour water on sand. that kind of horrific family tragedy really had a powerful, dilatory its effect on then-vice president biden. we were also told two of the most intense moments of diminishment occurred in 2023 and 2024, during his presidency, during moments of intense stress for his son, hunter, who i'm sure your viewers and callers know had some legal problems in 2023. he had a plea deal for a gun c

the election between donald trump and joe biden. i remember thinking what an incredible, almost cosmic moment of this person who is so prepared to do this job. serving in this role in a moment when this job could change the outcome of an election. so what caused to want to run for secretary of state start there and then i want to talk about your experiences in that role. well my north star has always been the voters. i think often times. well, actually, me just start by saying i mean, who wouldn't want to run the dmv? am i right? i mean, be honest. yeah. but i'm really proud. it's another also talked about in the book about about making our department of motor vehicles the most efficient in the country, eliminating wait times and all the rest. so so government work for you and turns out part of getting people to believe in democracy and the power of their vote is also showing that can work well for you so that when you vote, it actually has an impact. it makes a difference you can elect leaders who will make your life easier and sav

what is the group of voters that saved joe biden in 2020? what was the group of voters that saved hillary clinton's bid in 2016? it was black voters, right. and we're seeing that racial divide again within the democratic party. look, mandani leads among white voters by eight points. but look at that lead that andrew cuomo has among black voters, 54 points. that looks so much like what we saw in 2020 with joe biden winning on the backs of black voters. you saw obviously, jim clyburn from south carolina endorsing andrew cuomo in this race. so again, what we're just seeing here is a mirroring of the trends that we've seen nationally within the democratic party, where young white progressives want to go one way and older black moderates want to go another way. and right now, if the polling is to be believed, the moderate black voters will win once again, that tug of war within the democratic party and get their man the nomination. >> and obviously, as we've noted, cuomo still in the lead with that polling that you noted, not not super, super rec

biden will not shut up the say breaks the number one rule in route to his d.c.in the quiet car. it's been gabbing that is a favorite topic, ice cream. customers overhear him asking for the frozen treat hat sadly he had to settle for a muffin for the sake of the other customers, mr. president please stop screaming for ice cream. katy what say you? >> i don't care if you're the former president if you are making a lot of noise in the quiet car you should be ejected off of the train. this is the ultimate sin of amtrak travel you do not speak in the quiet car. it's worse and take your shoes off on an airplane what is he thinking this is the most egregious thing is in the past four years. [laughter] that's quite a lot joey i have to admit i like to sleep in the quiet car. not going to fall asleep totally but i want to be that quiet what is he doing? >> my how are you the president don't have your own train car on the train. [laughter] i do not understand that my trouble amtrak i cannot sit in the seat were one of the tables are i didn't have an opportunity to get mad

llegaron hace años y los supuestos criminales que , según él , llegaron durante la administración bidenales que sufren el impacto de sus operaciones . propietarios de negocios de comida ya han sentido los efectos de las redadas contra inmigrantes en el campo. >> la factura han. >> subido. >> o sea, si yo pagaba 5.000 $ de carne en una semana y era de 6000. o sea, son cosas que ya están viendo que está afectado. o sea, todos los vegetales, todo ha ido subiendo. . >> según datos del gobierno, el 42% de los trabajadores del campo en el país son indocumentados. el 19% son inmigrantes autorizados para trabajar y el 7% son inmigrantes que se han convertido en ciudadanos. . >> ya sabemos que en la agricultura es casi imposible . aún subiendo los los salarios , atraer nuevas personas al agro. entonces ahí el peligro realmente es que se pierda parte del concepto de la cosecha. no? entonces hay ahí un peligro de de pérdidas. >> la intención del presidente de proteger a los granjeros contradice a su propio zar de la frontera, quien un día antes insistió en que la detenciones de indocumentados cont

for biden and kamala, low iq.cause k knewed -- [simultaneous talking] >> jessica: let's go back to 2018. >> kayleigh: do you have the fulley quote?o >> jessica: i willyo send you all the links. >> kayleigh: you sound like jim acosta. >> mary katharine: no matteray what he says he has a record of appealing to democrats from across the aisle to bring those voters over into the republican coalition. [simultaneous talking] >> kayleigh: you will not find hillary clinton ask it of deplorable's.de obama, bitter, theply cling to their guns, antipathy, these weredertth about voters and i he challenged many democrats, give me all of the quotes fro dm f donald j. trumrop smearing halfr the country. they don't exist. to jesse's point, those are about specifics elected officials. maybe you don't like them, fine, he doesn't smear haln'f the country. >> jesse: the mentally ill, we've touched on this quithee a bit. we've seen the studies and we've n the behavior. >> greg: among the democrats, democrat women, the highest rate ofat

biden also said that he wanted to do that and did not accomplish it. at the same time, it's not clear whether the trump administration will leave the biden rules as they are. seems like they might make some changes, but may not repeal them in their entirety. as part of this plan, they said they wanted to address compliance challenges and not clear to me what that means. it seems. trying to read the tea leaves, they might try and change the rule or change how it's enforced there are things they can do, such as, you know, raising level of pass that requires action. but we're not sure what they ultimately will do to change that rule. if anything. i mean, another thing that i think needed is just more and funding for solutions. and you you talk about that a little bit in your book as well. you know, figuring out how we destroy these chemicals that are so hard destroy. and so there been some some cuts in some proposed to funding for research science. do you think that that could have an effect in the long term? yeah. i mean, think it's difficult to say like

and then later it was biden as old biden.s disqualified to them in a way that similarly elderly trump was not. >> that's right. and i think the democrats wanted to talk about the inflation reduction act, euphemistically titled bill, that did a. >> lot of. >> amazing things. and yet they were speaking about it in a way that was unable to break through. yeah. and so i think there's a communication failure that precedes a policy failure. there's a way of talking that people. there's a certain way of talking that nobody talks that way anymore, which is largely the way democrats talk. and there's a new mode of discourse that they have to embrace if they want to be heard. right. you don't have to go on these podcasts and be stupid. no. buttigieg and sanders were themselves. the questions actually rose to the level, to their level. they were smarter questions than they might have gotten asked in an editorial board meeting. they were more pertinent and more pertinent to people, and gave them the opportunity to make their points right

look, joe biden's four years there were some things that happened the really good for the american peoplethings was a bipartisan infrastructure democrats and republicans came together and they invested in america's greatest resources and they built hideaways. they built roads, they built bridges, they built airports. the democratic party talk about all the work they did. now donald trump is talking about some of that work. our former colleagues secretary of transportation is talk about that work but democrat parties got to go out there and talk about the work they have done and the impact it has had on the american people and the impact it has had on putting folks back to work rebuilding america pretty they start having those conversations with their going to find is the working joe and the working jane is going to be like i like that. maybe i'll go out and vote for that. the good news for the democratic party is this reconciliation bill will roll back a lot of that progress that was made. this led to hospitals being built today that might have to close their doors if this reconciliation

the vast majority of americans do not want to see another border crisis like we saw under president bideney want folks that don't have a legal right to be here, millions of illegal aliens removed and repatriated back to their home countries and that is what trump and his team are delivering on. jon: numbers don't lie. the number of encounters at the border has dropped significantly since trump came into office. >> exactly right. if you remember, president biden said everything he can do he was doing, he needed congress to act, needed new authorities, all these things and now the american people know that was a lie. all we needed was a new president that had the will and the ability to enforce immigration law and that's happening on the border, apprehensions at an all-time low, removals continue to grow and increase over the weeks as well. jon: he got a rare win in court in his ability to keep the national guard in los angeles. give us your assessment what the court has done and what the president is doing. >> this goes to the fact the president nationalized the california guard took well

biden put it back in place. so if you see the trump administration reaching a deal, will it be a very similar deal just simply rebranded? >> oh, i don't think so. not at all. the problem with the so-called joint comprehensive plan of action, the jcpoa, from 2015, is it didn't dismantle anything in iran. it just delayed their progress. and yes, president trump did cease compliance with the jcpoa in 2018. but what we saw was after 2021, this extreme acceleration of their nuclear activities, the the increase in centrifuges, the raising, the percentage of enrichment of uranium and plutonium, which is what makes this situation so dangerous now. but with those previous negotiations, frederica, the united states had to tempt iran to the table with concessions in terms of sanctions, sanctions relief and other incentives. now, the position is reversed. if the iranians want to get president trump back to the table, they're going to have to start making concessions. they're going to have to enter a real deal that may well

i mean, what are they talking about, you know, if october the eighth, president biden had said to qatar, you have 24 hours to release everything or one of these hostages unharmed or we remove whatever it is. airbase is it in qatar? we remove it and you're out of here. we treat you as a rogue state. how many billions you've got invested, you've finished 24 hours. it would have been over. the whole thing would been over. why didn't they do it? i don't know why they didn't do it. i mean, i can guess is like short term gain venality, but we are where we are. so is this going change? i don't know. people are jumping up and down about it. i hope there will be, you know, now a critical mass of people saying this is monstrous this has got to change and that that will change the administration's position. we'll wait and see. i'm melanie. the islamists have been done very well. strategic only using terminology and words as. weapons. islamophobia. interest. sexuality. and all of the above. great. how can how can we -- don't do the same thing? and one of the things that really bothers me is we stil

the administration in which i served, we were proud to see the allies move from nine when president biden arrived in the oval office to 23. so we were able to leave office with two thirds of the alliance spending 2% of gdp. what is going to happen in a week is a completely different kettle of fish. we are going to have allies ready to commit to this 5%, 3.5 percent on our defense and 1.5% on defense adjacent spending whether it is cyber or infrastructure. but this is good news and we should celebrate the fact that the allies are willing to jump to that number. i will say i have a couple of issues with the whole plan, however. and let me name three of them quickly. one, europe still suffers from tremendous fragmentation across the continent. unless either the nato alliance or the european union or a group of allies take on the fragmentation, i do fear that the additional resources that europeans are about to spend, estimates say about one trillion euros over the next decade, may just continue to fall into the siloed efforts and actually continue the bad habits of fragmentation that actuall

in turning around what biden had a whole of government effort on his climate initiative.p at alaska's north slope because of the efforts like bill armstrong and wild katter they have discovered massive new oil fields by using techniques the alaska pipeline is only running at a quarter of its capacity. they want and double that over the coming years for you are seeing a lot of new innovations still in oil and gas drilling in the lower 48. we are getting new leases offshore there is a lot more for the price question is a good one, paul, and that's going to be what also does influence the market. but the opening of all of this at least is a huge new playing field for players to get into. paul: natural gas is a big part of this there is an insatiable demand in asia, japan, china for liquefied natural gas. there's a real debate whether to produce this natural gas pipeline from the gas producing areas where they would be able to be shipped over too asia. is this going to go ahead? >> look there's a lot of focus on this in the moment if you look at the north slope as part of get

how are they any different than biden's foreign policy? >> we have to do it.it takes a lot of bravery. but iran can never have nuclear weapons. we can't go. halfway here. >> we can't negotiate there. >> you have hosts and guests alike on fox news this week, appearing to be eager to encourage president trump toward us action in iran. as the clock ticks on trump's self-declared two week deadline, his top allies are pretty sharply split. and joining me now, we have michael hardaway, former communications director to congressman hakeem jeffries and political commentator ashley pratte oats. and as i welcome you both, i'm curious, michael, your initial thoughts on all of this. why are some in trump's orbit so eager for these strikes when others are saying, hey, what about america first? >> well, it's the chicken. >> hawk playbook that we saw with iraq, right? where you had. >> a number. >> of people. >> who never served in the. >> military, who were eager. >> to send other. >> people's kids. into war. >> that is not right. >> to your point. >> donald trump ran on be

but it is worth pointing out that the biden administration made dozens and dozens of attempts, and the north koreans, i'd say rejected, but they didn't even acknowledge any of those attempts. we're sort of waiting to see at the moment, is kim jong-un just biding his time? he doesn't want to be forced, in potential negotiations, to have to withdraw his support from putin, withdraw his support for that war, and kind of barter away things that he's not comfortable with. and meanwhile, in south korea, i mean, you've been having quite a torrid time of it, haven't you, since last december? yeah, we've had, uh... yeah, a fairly hectic six months, if i can put it like that. yeah, obviously, back in december, we had the president here at the time declare martial law. it was a complete throwback to the days of south korea's military dictatorships. people were out on the streets resisting it, and then they impeached the president, but it has taken six months for us to get a new president. is it true that south korea is now stable once again? yeah, south koreans came out in really high numbers for

joining me now, megan hayes, former special assistant to president biden, and maura gillespie, founderck strategies and advisor to former house speaker john boehner. good to see you both again. so, megan, was this rift inevitable because trump in the campaign, i mean, he repeatedly promoted america first. how did trump supporters interpret that? >> sure. >> i mean, of course it was inevitable, right? because when you don't stand for anything, you stand for nothing. and so he just listens to who's ever in the room. last, most presidents have a national security advisor and have a national security council. but he decided to get rid of those things. so now he gets to listen to fox news and to other different outlets and podcasters, give opinions and make decisions for our national security and for what's best for the rest of the world, which is just i mean, of course it was inevitable and we all saw it coming, but we just never thought it would happen. >> so, maura, than which of these two factions is trump listening to it at this point? >> well, based on. >> his twitter account. >> or h

and what has it meant to the country as we just saw with president biden, it's difficult to give up powernd especially give up power, a revolutionary era where. the country really is focused upon you as a as a figurehead for the entire movement. and i think it's really important, especially i don't know if you heard this there's an election coming up and especially with the election up to think about why it the people that the constitutional convention all assumed all new as a certainty that george washington was going to be the president because he wasn't the smartest guy in the room. he wasn't to be asked that great of a military tactician. he never made a profit as a businessperson his entire life. what he was was trustworthy. he had the primary characteristic, that policy, that public officials looked at at the time, which was and virtue is ability to put yourself behind the country. put the country first. and if you think about his career stepping back as a general, coming back out of retirement to work as every single time would have rather been home, but he thought the nation neede

mike: as a former biden official, yemesi egbewole, how do you respond? disappointed with the senate in taking a working day to do political theater where their star witness was sean spicer. republicans have boycotted hearings before. they did it when it came to a covid hearing in homeland security committee. what durbin is trying to say we have more on our plate before congress, that is noted as one of the least productive and the trump administration has not passed actual legislation at a time the president is underwater, 30 points, when it comes to inflation in public opinion. i think if we continue to be backwards looking and a party relies on somebody who isn't in elected office they are never going to move forward anywhere. democrats have said we are fishing past this. mike: we have seen hearings in the house and senate? >> if you are the democratic party wondering why you are in the doghouse with voters look at this fox news paul, 70% of voters said we already knew going into the debate that joe biden was struggling mentally with his capacity to do

i think some of it was joe biden in 2021 present in finding famously did not invite must to an electric vehicle summit at the white house, reportedly because of the texas history of fighting union efforts. the vision of the future that is now beginning to have fight and had sort of a personal dislike of mosque and of a lot of these contact billionaires and musk took the rejection, or the lack of invitation to this wife has the stomach very personally for god sakes, you're not including the any leader in the world, not even just in america. in an easy summit on the south lawn, his political evolution played out at real time, over 1000 to 2 weeks. each one garnering an immediate response from his growing number of followers. any time he would say something that uh, pushed democrats away. there was an immediate embrace, online by 2021 who was already spreading anti algebra 2 to propaganda feeding into the gloom or a panic. and you can see that he was radicalized most became fixated on the idea of a work mind virus threatening western civilization. the work mind virus has something very rea

and biden marked the occasion this year in galveston on thursday.izing juneteenth as a, quote, non-working holiday which tracks with trump's posture. since his return to office, he's been on a crusade to purge the federal government of diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives. it's kind of his jam. this includes sanitizing or even altogether erasing references to black history and black culture. when his very first day in office, trump signed an executive order that caused many federal agencies to cancel black history month celebrations altogether, he actually signed several executive orders targeting die from attempting to restrict funding to schools with dei programs, to targeting museums with black history exhibits, to vowing to restore confederate names on army bases. but black americans long fought for juneteenth to be federally federally recognized. and even if president trump doesn't want to acknowledge the day, folks still showed up. they signaled that the fight for equality will continue just as the at just as the struggle for equality w

we saw a response, a reaction of disenchantment to the biden administration's policies and subsequently we've seen the trump administration overreach quite drastically in ways that are that are that are extremely unpopular. deporting people without due process, rounding up people who, who, who are not involved in in any way in crime but are here just to work. these are all quite unpopular things. i think the public often gets a bad rap on immigration. my own studies show that that the last thing most americans are on, immigration is closed minded. people generally support immigration. they prefer legal immigration to illegal immigration, but they don't support mass deportation. that involves people who are not here causing any kind of trouble and working and raising families at the same time. the public is quite receptive to increasing immigration in various ways. if they can be assured that immigrants integrate, learn english, get jobs, and become self-sufficient. so i don't actually see the polarization here as coming from the public. rather, it's coming from the parties and their the

is that judicial overreach by a biden-appointee judge?ave repeatedly seen activist judges rule against policies of president trump and they're trying to legislate from the bench. they are trying to be a commander-in-chief from the bench. and what they're doing is exercising their opinion, not taking a stance on the rule of law, and the statutes that are there on the books. this is why we continue to look at this issue, we've held hearings. these district judges have no authority to do nationwide injunctions and some of these activities. they're restricted from the case before them in the district in which they serve. mike: let's talk immigration from the fox poll, no surprise. people view legal immigration favorably. 70% say legal immigration is favorable while many favor deporting illegal immigrants, 56 favor deporting, 40% oppose. you did a ride along with some of the people who are on the front lines of that struggle with illegal immigrants. tell us about your experience and what you saw. >> mike, these are individuals that are working

when congress passed, signed by biden, scotus upholding the tiktok ban. trump has delayed this three different times and pretty strong objections, people have argued it's simply not legal what the president is doing, but the pew research center has some polling out that's talked about how support for a tiktok ban has been declining now to 32%. some portion of the american people who like this app and they want to keep it going. as you mentioned it's about strategy, but is it safe or does that argument about national security still stand? >> no, i think that national security argument is still valid today. and the reason the support goes down, it's fatigue. and people have been hearing about this, finally get a deal done. what they're trying to do. i think from a national security standpoint, it has to be anybody other than china. abc, anybody, but china. we have to get it where we can have more transparency. the ceo of tiktok, hey, we don't look at any of this data only to find out that chinese engineers were looking at the same data they proclaimed in fr

because i think there's some specific elements there related to the bite ministration i think joe biden, if you look at his history, his history and politics, it is deeply, deeply antagonistic to palestinians that even by the standards of american politics is fairly low bar to it, which is a pretty low part. so i think that there is an element of it of that there. but i think the other part of it is that there is a performance that, that needs to be maintained. because again, it's become part of the sort of rhetorical sales pitch of this party. and i live in portland, right? and i often talk about how in portland you can walk around certain neighborhoods and every lawn has a black lives matter sign on. and there's not a black family for like 20 blocks in any direction, right? so this is the sort of thing that, that i think in the short run is very easy to do. but in the long run induced as a kind of dejection. and it kind of disillusionment that ends up in a situation where you're running against some, you know, one of the worst human beings ever to take office and you still manage to l

biden has dismissed the investigation as a mere distraction.he state of president biden's cognitive fitness during his term was the topic for a senate hearing earlier this week. here is a clip from that where senator peter welch, one of two democrats that attended spoke before walking out of the hearing and is followed by republican ted cruz. >> sure, we can enjoy the pleasure of looking back at the biden administration and getting into the weeds about when and where and how the president was acting at any given moment. you know, i ask myself before i get into a debate and before i do anything, why am i doing it? if i do it, does it have the potential to make things better for the people i represent? if the answer is, no, it doesn't have any opportunity to help the folks in vermont, i shut up. that's what i do. it won't help. what we are doing right now won't help. it will not help. i ask myself, why in the world are we doing it? >> not a single democrat is here today, because not a single one of them gives a dam about the fact that they lied t

this compares ice raids carried out under former president biden and current president trump. the study found absences increased in the majority latino student populations by 30% for those in pre k 27% for students in current kindergarten through 5. it's gray, 17% for middle schoolers and 8% for high school students. this is based off of findings before the immigration raids in la. still ahead on the kron, 4 morning news from the newsroom to the community. how kron 4 is helping with the critical need for blood. >> and juneteenth may have been celebrated thursday, but the celebrations of freedom continue in the bay area. we have a preview of a special of that happening in the east bay today. >> with you've got >> a new home. >> it got to. >> threw on and >> and last weekend you woke up to that sound on the kron. 4 morning news. the west coast blues society along with organizers for hayward's juneteenth freedom celebration. join us in studio and that celebration is happening today from 02:00pm to 06:00pm at the heritage plaza in downtown. it features live music, a variety of foo

, worked with biden going before this committee to answer questions.at do you expect? >> well, they're going to be in the hot seat because these are the people who were close to the former president of the united states. they're the ones who insisted that he was fine, and that statistic that you mentioned a second ago where nearly 70% of americans thought that they saw a decline before that first debate in atlanta when it was on display, i think that explains the trust deficit that was built up by democrats and that remains today. because while the white house was saying that biden had good days and bad days, you know, behind the scenes he was deteriorating. karine jean-pierre, she told me he was as sharp as ever and then later the dam broke, and you had democrats calling for him to step aside. ultimately, it wasn't until it was too late. i think that, frankly, some democrats who blame him for kamala harris' loss in 2024, i think they're going to be watching this with a little bit of i told you so attitude. molly: well, there is that question about wha

. >> this was because joe biden was behind in the in the polls by 2020. >> it was a bipartisan bill. >> no. >> i agree that did not get over the table. and that was the republicans fault, not the democrats. >> i agree that's that's what happened. >> republicans killed it. >> but we are six months into a donald trump term. we are very close to midterms. i cannot tell you what the democrats policy on illegal immigration is. that's a problem. >> i live in los angeles. i'm watching horrific things happening that if anybody at this table were there, they would raise their hand and say, please don't do that. the little haiti, which is the safest neighborhood in l.a., is now empty of people going to stores. people are afraid to leave their homes in little haiti in l.a. because donald trump, who said he was going to go after the gang members, is going after the people who are not in gangs. these are that's bad. well, and. >> it is. >> and so and so what i'm saying is when people are now yelling at democrats, saying everything you're doing is bad and dumb and stupid, i wonder what it is we're

so right now for us that's joe biden.e has completely, you know, he's off the radar completely. right now leaderless we're messageless. we're agendaless we don't have any alternative ideas to the president's and republicans right now so i'm a little, you know, i'm concerned. >> former obama speech writing offered his decision in an op-ed titled democrats need more hobbies with the party of political junkies republicans are now party of peel who would rather think about anything else and there are more of the latter than former. that author david lid joins us now a fellow surfer learned to surf only drown where you really found common ground between your brother-in-law who was a conservative joe rogen loving guy, that serves and you, obviously, a democrat. i want to talk more about bridging that partisan divide david but you know i read your piece in the atlantic yesterday it is very fascinating -- really sort of saying the quiet part outloud that democrats have kind of lost a message and you sort of pull into it by saying

he reversed biden's decision. >> not to give them 2,000. >> pound. >> pound bombs.ortant to understand the facts here. when president obama got the iran deal signed, there was no nuclear development under that agreement in any place other than natanz. and natanz was limited. >> to. >> 5% enrichment. there was some exception, up to 20% for accelerated research reactors. >> today you have. >> a situation where fordo is at 60% enrichment. you have a situation where there are numerous sites that are enriching those people who say, well, obama's deal wasn't perfect, some were cheating. well. >> they were. >> not cheating nearly enough to the situation we have today. president obama showed that diplomacy is not just. morally the better path. >> it is. >> pragmatically the better path to deny iran a bomb. >> and this whole. effort has been. >> created because donald trump came ripped up the jcpoa, and we are. >> more. >> at risk today than we were at a bomb. >> when president obama acted. >> he does not get nearly the credit he deserves, and we need to look at what he did.

folks do have questions we'll get to you obviously lot of conversation in recent days about about the biden pardons at the end of his administration and and of course some some questions about autopen usage and i would love any thoughts there because i'm betting somebody asked that question know when i've been on television writing i try not to too categorical about things. you know, i'm not a judge. i can't tell you you know what the will be on any given thing with certainty except this. there is a 30 page opinion from the office legal counsel in the it comes from the george w bush administration where it says any documents signed by an order directed by the president to be signed by autopen is exactly as authoritative as anything signs by hand. the autopen makes no difference. so the signed by autopen are the same as anything else. he signed in person, whether you know these pardons were good pardons or bad pardons. obviously we have lots of disagreement about that. but they are pardons and they can't be overturned okay. all right we got time for some questions. we got a microphone. we go

juneteenth finally became an official holiday in 2021 under president joe biden. now, even as rhetoric like that muddies the waters, there are still a lot of people who are having important conversations around juneteenth. this year, i met two women who did not know each other, but share a special connection to each other and the events of june 19th, 1865, in galveston, texas. here's what happened when they came together to talk for the first time, 160 years later. kelly taylor has been to this church before, but the person waiting for her on this day is a first, not just for her. there's never been a meeting like this. >> i'm jittery right now. i'm excited. and i hope they're. >> just. >> as excited to meet me. >> now to appreciate the excitement, you need to know kelly's story. for years, she's been researching her genealogy. >> that is a gift that keeps on giving. i don't sleep sometimes at night because i wake up trying to find more. >> she used a website to trace her maternal line back to a man born about 1837. once enslaved and freed in galveston, texas. >>

right now for us that is joe biden but he has completely, you know, he is off the radar completely. now we are leaderless, the message, we are agendaless, we don't have any alternative ideas to the republicans right now. i am concerned. joey: you don't have to be spinning to see that. she is saying it from a point of concern, not to run her party down, i don't know if it is indicative of how bad the democrat party is or how effective donald trump has been in sewing together the coalition that won in 2024. rachel: there's no one cohesive leader because the factions are so varied. there are certain issues it seems the whole party is in line, like being for butchering miners and the like but on many issues, rahm emanuel would be an example, stop with the locker room, the boys and girls sports, we need to get america back on track, get the party back on track, this is how we do it but at the end of the day there is not one general, there's a bunch of i don't know. joey: it is like herding cats because so many democrats doing things that are difficult to manage to include, congressman wh

and just imagine if the biden administration would have taken these tactics. what would republicans be saying? so you got to call it straight. you got to call it for what it is. >> it's like, what wouldn't they be saying? let me get your reaction to something that dhs announced on wednesday. dhs says that lawmakers like you must give 72 hours notice before visiting ice facilities. to my mind, that is unbelievably wrong. am i wrong? >> you're not wrong. >> you have an oversight role. >> look, congress as an institution is a separate but co-equal branch of government. a key part of our job is oversight and accountability. exactly what this administration does not want. and so they will try to throw up any hurdle, any roadblock to keep us from our oversight and accountability role. that's all i was doing that press conference, as you know, i did not barge in. i was escorted in. >> i didn't lunge. >> at the secretary. i did not lunge at the secretary. i think there's a video that demonstrates that i had the audacity of trying to ask a question and why. part of the

but it is worth pointing out that the biden administration made dozens and dozens of attempts, and the north koreans, i'd say rejected, but they didn't even acknowledge any of those attempts. we're sort of waiting to see at the moment, is kim jong-un just biding his time? he doesn't want to be forced, in potential negotiations, to have to withdraw his support from putin, withdraw his support for that war, and kind of barter away things that he's not comfortable with. and meanwhile, in south korea, i mean, you've been having quite a torrid time of it, haven't you, since last december? yeah, we've had, uh... yeah, a fairly hectic six months, if i can put it like that. yeah, obviously, back in december, we had the president here at the time declare martial law. it was a complete throwback to the days of south korea's military dictatorships. people were out on the streets resisting it, and then they impeached the president, but it has taken six months for us to get a new president. is it true that south korea is now stable once again? yeah, south koreans came out in really high numbers for

the reason we in this war right now, joe biden and kamala harris in. she gave them a free meal ticket and that is where our money went. he has had to do all of this and that black lady, no, nobody is a white person. i'm going to tell you right now, they give her a black business, but they wouldn't give him one. he went bankrupt and lost his business because of that reason. you tell me that a messed up, and that war with israel, we shouldn't have nothing to do with that. they need to quit doing that. they getting their own selves killed. i tell you all of this racist stuff needs to stop and they need to listen to trump. trump is the one trying to help us, and that's all i got to say about that. i'm in god's hands, and you have a very nice day, ma'am. all praise god about all of this. host: that was tommy in alabama. he was this week that senator lindsey graham was on fox news, talking about iran's nuclear ambitions. here is a clip from that interview. [video clip] >> i talked to the president last night. i just want to say this. i'm so glad he is where

previous administration, i don't think anyone can now say with a clear mind beside jazmine crockett bidenthe whole time. the senate judiciary held a hearing and democrats said, you know what, we don't to want be a part of this and that's what the respondents said and maybe they just read the questions wrong. what's your thought s? emily: example of democrats coming down on the wrong side of 80/20 issue. >> one staid for that hearing and it's obvious the reason why they didn't to want be there because this scandal implicates them as much as joe bide and the rest of the white house aids in on it and the problem is they're not going to be able to hide on this and revealed with the ugly truth for the democratic party and they're the party of defending knock seizure disorders and they're in power going for them going for the biden reelection going for them to operate in the shadows and someone else pulling the strings and they can operate without account and the checks of democratic representation. griff: kaylee mcghee white, thanks for being here. have a great saturday. emily: thank you, kayl

we lost 5 to $6 billion a day with biden 5 to 6 billion.n a very in a record time. >> what? >> all right. >> this president is tone deaf when it comes to saving. he doesn't cut coupons and he's cutting out medicare and medicaid. they're going to be a lot of rural hospitals. they're going to lose lose out. we're going to lose a lot of rural hospitals. but rural communities need. but here's the bottom line. when you are paying for all of these military and national guards over in california and calling alex padilla, senator alex padilla jose. and then when you're also paying for what else, a big military parade on your birthday that you fell asleep on and you're talking about saving costs, there's some kind of contradiction. contradiction. it doesn't marry. it doesn't marry at all. >> i would like to point out one thing from the fox news poll that i mentioned in the intro. they asked people if they had a favorable view of a whole bunch of people. yeah, president trump has a favorable rating of 45% and an unfavorable rating of 55%. guess who t

is a disastrous reflection of the policies urged the biden administration.d cbp-1, an app that allows foreign nationals thanksgiving to inter-our country and -- nationals to earn our country and vetted and we appreciate trump's willingness to restore honor in the area. emily: his brother murdered and not leaving them behind again. >> first thing is to be appreciative and thankful for the failure and not continuing under president trump. president trump is restoring honor and will give this case and others like it an honest look and is supportive with standing with the allies and that's the first and most important thing and second thing is to get involved. you can volunteer to support save our allies by going to the we can site and also can reach out to members of congress or senator and more. griff: rick is live from the grand ole opry. reporter: yeah, we're on the all american summer road trip and blue compass rv getting around and there's a mall here and an aquarium. this place flooded in 2010 and come bernards healthcareland rivers is over here and flood

under previous trump and biden administration's, we have taken steps to ensure that wada fulfills its promise. despite years of efforts by the u.s. work with wada, wada has still not fully implement at the changes necessary to ensure the principles reflected in the convention against doping in sport are consistently upheld and not disregarded when politically expedient. this is not surprising as wada remains tethered to the international olympic committee and international sport powers and does not operate with the independence and an ethic of transparency that are necessary to meet its mission. continuing to fund wada under the circumstances risks endorsing the status quo and sends a message to american athletes and the american public that clean sport and fair competition are no longer a priority. in conclusion, in 2008 i wrote an article that questioned whether the fight for clean sport could survive in long-term. i stated the fight against doping may not continue with as much force as in the early years of wada if the international community does not follow through and quote, susp

biden had. >> fox news poll ap. >> but here's the problem, jessica. if trump continues to show declines or the gop does and the democrats don't pick up any of that, what's the solution? >> well, in special elections. >> don't ask democrats for solutions. how dare you? >> well, my last question goes to you, greg. >> yeah. >> are you excited about vacation? >> yes. >> well, it. >> you saw you saw the guitar playing. where is bluto? blutarsky when we need him. >> you know, if you ever want to know who doesn't have friends, wait till they sing in public. because friends don't let friends sing in public. somebody should have been there and said, dude, don't do it. you know, even when we feel strongly about the victims of illegal crime, like people that have been raped and murdered, we don't sing because it's not about us. we don't turn people's suffering into some high drama moment or some moment, some fake cry at a hearing. that is false empathy. there's no drama and no theater where we come from. it's just. but on the democrat side, it's all these creeps

and in fact, the biden people overlooked it. and then they were trying to. cram contracts in, right, right after the election. and but. >> i know from. >> experience, this is something that happened all the. >> time. and people. >> were really held accountable. >> and it's remarkable. >> in itself that they. are punishing a u.s. aid official, because what usually happens is they would punish some jordanian contractor somewhere to make it look like they were doing something. but u.s. aid officials almost never themselves got punished for this type of crazy behavior. >> and it's great to see. >> what's happening. >> yeah, marks. good work if you can get it. it's only a half $1 billion mark. thank you very much. tip of the iceberg there. and coming up, what do fashion faux pas and messiah miscasting have in common? freddie follies raymond arroyo is next. >> i'm not feeling this today. >> hey champ, you need. >> a new game plan. >> and fast. >> doug flutie. >> and frank thomas. what are you doing in my bathroom? >> more like your new. >> locker room. >> you turn

now, bidens loan program office director was aware of accusations that they defrauded senior selling solar to those that were "on their deathbeds". despite this, instructing doe staff to prioritize the loan application after attending a dinner hosted by a board member. the board member spouse was a former chair of the dnc. they doe inspector general, determined the actions potentially violated the ethical standards for executive branch employees. how can the american people be confident that the loan programs office inside the department of energy is acting in their best interest when actions like those taken by shaw have undermined the credibility of that same office. >> huge undermining of the credibility. one of the reasons why people are mad at me for being slow and process oriented it is in response to things like that that we have created this program review process where we have a team of cross functional people to evaluate every project of any meaningful scale. if it's a few million dollars or more, 500 such projects, we will evaluate every one of them in a businesslike profe

i was always surprised biden didn't do it. elon musk tweeting within the past one minute, time to drop the really big bomb at real donald trump is in the epstein files. that's the real reason they have not been made public. have a nice day. dj exclamation point. oh! i don't know about dj, but i'm having a pretty nice day. holy. in the span of three hours they went from elon criticizing the bill to trump threatening to take elon's contracts away to elon, suggesting that trump might be a pedophilile. also, if we were to take you at your word, elon, you already knew that and it wasn't a deal breaker. so that spiraled out of control. and it's not just trump who lost a friend. house speaker mike johnson used to be so proud of how tight he was with the world's richest man. i was communicating with elon last night. elon and vivek and i are on a text chain together. can you imagine how much it sucks to be on a text chain with elon mus johnson doge should cut medicaid. vivek. we should also look at social security. musk we're renaming

but biden's mental acuity is supreme. maybe if you mean a burrito supreme with half the beef and twice the diarrhea it is touching when you think about it, a black woman with so much respect for a senile old white man, it's like driving miss daisy meets visiting angels. but jasmine wasn't done. she also took a shot at anyone who supported the recent military parade. >> you know, thinking that you have your own special little army. that's for you. i mean, it is just it is sick. it is really sick. and anybody that supports it is also sick. everyone, no matter how you affiliate yourself, should be against trump, period. i would give anything to have, sad to say, george bush like like give me any regular republican nowadays and i would be happy. >> sorry babe. america had regular republicans before. mavericks like john mccain and losers like mitt romney. and the dems insisted they were hitler too. fact is, if a barack obama switched parties and ran as a republican, they'd call him a nazi too, because it doesn't matter which r

wanted take a moment here, before we get started to send out our well wishes to former president joe biden that the former president has been diagnosed with a very aggressive form of prostate cancer. there are treatment options. so, joe and jill, if i may, everyone here at "the late show" is thinking of you, sending you strength, wishing you the best. a candle will be lit. [applause] folks, i love science. hard sciences, soft sciences, blue sciences, goat sciences. wait, that's cheese. i love cheese it turns out. but science is pretty good too. and i like to tell you all about the latest science news in my long-running science segment... >> the sound of science! ♪ hello, silence, my old friend ♪ [cheers and applause] >> stephen: stay. first up, a new study has revealed that by quieting down certain neuronal networks, bees sleep like humans. so... they lie awake until 2 a.m. wondering if they said hi in a weird way to brenda from accounting? next up, according to new research, chocolate can lower blood pressure just as well as some medications.
