lou: they hate them. >> absolutely hate them. lou: 78%. >> 78%. lou: i think that's a little low. >> that's down to family and cousins and employees. and they watch this kind of stuff where it doesn't function, it doesn't work. and the whole stupid argument about daca, daca is just a part of the immigration issue. we've still got 12, 14 million -- lou: it's probably the smallest part. >> it probably is. and we're not willing to deal with the problem. we're not willing to give the security systems that the president wants. the president promised campaign, won in 30 states, 306 electoral votes, two didn't vote for them. but he won 306 -- lou: he's a legitimate president. >> and every single day he talked about building a wall to the biggest applause lines across this country. lou: what would be, if your judgment, the political impact if he gives in to the schumer shutdown and gives away daca? >> he can't. he'll basically never have chance to move anything forward again in the three years that he has left here. people forget he has literally 1,093 da

lou: whoa. you don't think it matters who the heck is negotiating . >> the end result needs to be some serious changes to our immigration policy. lou: says who? >> we currently have random -- people being allowed in on a random basis. it needs to be matched up with the needs of the country, needs to end chain migration, needs to be border enforcement. people are talking about the daca fix but they're not talking about how to change things so in the future we don't have millions of more people who come here illegally. lou: without question, i talked about it with ed rollins in the show. 1986 under president reegen, 1996 under president clinton, amnesty in both cases and no border security improvement whatsoever and the result has been this huge number of illegal immigrants living in this country now and through chain migration we're witnessing more. >> we need a fundamental reimagination of our immigration policy. we need an america first immigration policy that doesn't just focus on the interest

>> lou: good evening, everybody. president trump today making his immigration stance clear with there must be a border wall or no deal with daca. that is a tenant of his campaign. and dems and rhino republicans trying to drive him in a different direction yesterday. among our guests. congressman andep biggs. he said the wall must be built before congress passes daca legislation. and president trump calling on republican law makers to take control of the russia witch hunt. none. investigations found a a single shred of evidence and yet the special counsel continues to waste time and taxpayer dollars and energy and congressman francis rooney joins us. said the department of justice and fbi is off of the rail and need to purge the deep state. also tonight. president trump keeping want pressure on north korea even as he continues to the diplomates that forced kim jong-un to the negotiating table with south korea. and the united states destroyed nuclear bombers to guam. we'll take up the president's efforts to reign in ki

here's lou. lou: good evening, everybody. evidence of corruption within the justice department and the fbi mount and more questions arise. the doj now says it's recovered five months of text messages that were missing. those messages between anti-trump fbi officials, peter strzok and lisa page, lovers, it turns out after all. the recovery of those texts required less than a week after officials claim they had lost the messages. that at one point seemed to be blaming samsung. no more. we don't yet know who is to blame, but at least samsung has been exonerated, as say say at doj. doj officials also trying to stop the release of that house intel memo detailing surveillance abuses. the department of justice says that release would be extraordinarily reckless and seeks to block it. the intelligence committee with the support of the white house says the justice department can just stand down and relax. and continues to block doj and the fbi from seeing the house intel blockbuster memo. congressman andy biggs and judicial watch pres

here's lou dobbs. lou: good evening, everybody. special counsel robert mueller has found absolutely no evidence of any kind of any wrongdoing whatsoever. that's our headline. and the next headline is witch hunt persists. the president's legal team is now apparently talking about a possible interview with the special counsel, the president and the special counsel could sit down apparently at some point within the next several weeks. our special guest tonight is congressman rhonda sanities. he says the mueller special counsel is infected with bias and must be shut down all together >>> also tonight, some progress in the efforts to purge the deep state department of justice. the department of justice official demoted last month because of his contacts with fusion gps. as we have learned, been demoted for a second time. demoted. i will point out he has not been fired. why? we'll take that up here tonight. bruce orr is no longer the head of the organized crime and drug enforcement task force though he still works for the department of j

lou dobbs on fox business. lou: good evening, republicans preparing to vote on a continuing resolution that avoid a government shut down at midnight tomorrow. the house republicans right now scrambling to shore up 216 votes that will be required for a majority to pass short-term spending bill that will keep government running. but despite assurance from speaker paul ryan this morning, there seems to be a lot of difficult questions about what is vote are for or against the continues regular. so far, it not clear whether the republicans have the votes, even though they have the majority and so-called savant. fore caforecasting easy passage. and more troubknol trouble in t. we'll have a live report for you in capitol hill in just moments. we'll talk with highly respected representative from arizona congrescongresswoman martha mcs. >> and no one can deliver the phrase, it's the economy, stupid. no one does it near low as well as does president trump. see if you agree. >> we can keep it like this, we're going to win

lou: wait, wait. you tell me that fact that this man has accomplished so much, unprecedented number of achiever ams for any president. in modern history, that it might stave him off from being impeached. for what would he be impeached, he is a great president, we can't stand that any more? is this a result of clinton and bush and obama we can't have a man who knows or woman, who knows what the hell they are doing? >> i think that hatred for donald trump is off the charts, in more than half of country's population. i believe that polls are right about -- lou: i don't believe a single one of those polls. >> i know. the polls were right in 2016, general elect had hillary clinton winning by 3. she did. and "new york times" had hillary clinton at 95% -- on election night. >> higher. >> yeah. that was their prediction. >> let me say, this distraction that occurs, this president has to talk about what he has done, you talk about it a few other shows talk about it but american public, they are not getting the

lou: yes it is. ann: he was doing exactly literally 30 seconds -- fine sign wants a stand alone dreamer bill. kevin mccarthy has to step in and say no, sir, i think we need border security first. he agrees with that. pe he's agreeing with people with a 60-second lag and the democrats are taking the position no, we won't take anything but the dreamers. lou: well he says without question, he says that he's going to have the wall. the problem i have, frankly, is that there was no discussion of the sequence in which these events would occur. and we know that if the wall is not, and i mean constructed, built, before there's any discussion of quote unquote immigration reform, we know what's not going to happen. that wall is not going to be built, is it? ann: no, of course not. and any amnesty is a 100% amnesty because it goes to the courts. and the courts will say, oh, you may have limited this to left-handed red heads who came here at age zero through no fault of their own. but gosh we're going to open it

lou? lou: it's fascinating to hear the head of the national immigration forum saying democrats want smart stuff. the reality is fences work as you're demonstrating here tonight as i know you'll be demonstratesing as well tomorrow and thursday as we continue a series of your reports from the border but the fact is democrats hate the fence because it actually does work, the same reason they hate e-verify because it reduces the magnet that draws illegal immigration. >> and you know, that's important because if you're a border agent here is the message that's being sent. if a guy gets past you, does it mean that he can live in the united states, unobstructed without fear for the rest of his life and raise a family? what kind of message is that sending to the border agent with just to get by you and then hands off interior enforcement, no one has to go through the computer check. is that really fair to the agent many here would say no. lou? and the question is it fair to working men and women i

now her's lou. lou: good evening. it may be time to declare war against the deep state and clear out the rot in the upper levels of the fbi and the justice department. yes, i said the rot. the fbi and the doj have broken the public trees by destroying evidence, defying oversight and actively trying to bring down the trump presidency. tonight there are new concerns that anti-trump fbi officials formed even a secret society at the fbi to subvert the president after his election. that's according to do republican lawmakers who have seen some of the thousands of texts between the fbi's peter struck and lisa paige. >> the day after the election, the day after what they really, really didn't want to have happen, there's a text exchange between these two fbi agents, these two supposed to be objective fak centered fbi agents saying perhaps this is the first meeting of the secret society. so of course i'm going to want to know what secret society are you talking about because you're supposed to be investigating objectively the

now, here's lou. lou: good evening, everybody. president trump today making his immigration stance clear with no equivocation at all. there must be a border wall as part of any deal on daca. his promise to build the wall has been a central tenant of his campaign and his presidency. ths trying to drive president trump in an all together different direction yesterday. among our guests tonight, congressman andy big. congressman bigg says the wall must be built before congress passes any legislation. also president trump calling on lawmakers to take control of the witch hunt. none of the investigations have found a single evidence of wrongdoing and yet the continuio waste time and taxpayer dollars. department of justice and fbi simply as he put it off the rails and need to purge the deep state. he will join us here tonight as well. president trump reportedly recertifying the iranian nuclear deal this week. sources tell fox news that's because progress is being made on legislation to fix problems in the deal that the president has crit
