Sunday Night in America With Trey Gowdy : FOXNEWSW : September 1, 2024 6:00pm-7:00pm PDT : Free Borrow & Streaming : Internet Archive (2024)

>> what is remarkable, i don't know of another politician certainly not at a national level who could spend two hours discussing any issue, taking on any issue. and doing it in a substantive way, compelling way. in a thoughtful way, that is donald trump, he is running against someone who only does interviews if she likes the person that is interviewing her, if she is sitting with her running mate, if it is edited, a big difference, get the book, you are going do love it. i hoped you liked our show, see you next time on "life, liberty and levin."

trey: thank you for joining us i'm trey gowdy it's "sunday night in america," a man drove toward a church in charleston, south carolina, passing exit after exit, offering a chance to change his mind. don't do the unthinkable. but he didn't. he entered the historic church where believers did what their faith teaches, they welcomed a stranger, read the bible with him, prayed for him, he pulled out a gun and executed 9 black christians because they were black, he wanted to start a race war. i think he should get a needle in his arm for that, regardless of your view on capital punishment. i don't think that anyone thinks he should get the right to vote this november, except maybe kamala harris, she can't decide whether death row killers should vote. most voters don't know that or much else about her

beliefs. >> there can be no doubt future of transportation in our nation and around the world is electric. >> will everyone have to drive electric cars. >> maya ma my -- by my plan, we'll have zero emission vehicles only. >> you commit to a tom federal ban on fracking. >> there is no question i'm in favor of banning fracking. trey: voters don't know she would also cut funding for police, wants fewer cost, wants to end private health insurance, legalize crossing the border, abolish i.c.e., and raised bond money for violent protesters, the media will never point out her extreme beliefs or shifting positions, she is on an endless honeymoon, even kamala harris a

admits she flip flopped but claims she has not changed her values, what is the difference? what value wants fewer cops eor tells you that biden is sharp. donald trump can win this race, if he employees the rhetorical tool of asking questions. joining us, is someone who knows how to ask questions radio talk show host hugh hewitt welcome. >> i don't know that it will. i watched the interview with danah bash, i 30 this is awful, this probably the beginning of downward slide in her numbers that will be i think continuous until election. americans tune in on labor day or thursday night. what they saw, i don't want to insult salads, it was not

a pea pea -- she prepared 40 days for one interview, that tells us she does not have the minimum skill set necessary to be president of the united states. and note owed their podcast, interviews of her kryptonite, they are, that is why she will not do that, she is not capable of interviewing, i think that anyone that watched that and will watch her in anything other than a scripted environment will conclude, she can't be president, she doesn't know how to do it. trey: for those who may have missed that interview, we called it jail jesus, defendants finding rel religion about the time punishment was handed down,

harris seems to find new positions before the election, california moderate and democrat don't go in same sentence, she wants to convince people she has become a moderate. >> and you are right. i moved to california in 1989. and i came back to beltway in 2016, the conservative part of california is not very conservative, it is orange county where i lived, l.a. is left wing and san francisco is nuts, she is a san francisco democrat, a radical san francisco democrat, team trump saying a dangerous san francisco liberal, she is not a liberal. san francisco politics are wild and out of control, you have to go left of left of left. that is the milieu in which she grew up, she ran against the death penalty, that is what she ran for to be san francisco district attorney, i think if the legacy media puts any attention on what

she believed in 2019, i believe she still believes, i believe she believes in fracking, you don't know go being anti-fracking in 5 years to being a pro poe pof tracking, we need it. the only way to bring prices down, that have gone up under biden and harris is to produce more energy and make it cheaper to buy energy, she did not do that, it is not that hard to do if you have the skill set. trey: one of her favorite phrases is day one. >> when i look at the aspirations, goals ambitions of the american people, i think that people are ready for a new way forward. day one it's going to be one

imy plan for an opportunity economy. trey: she talks like she is a challenger like she has been out of office, this is day 1201. how can voters fall for what she is going to do if she has not already done it over the last 3 years. >> i don't think they are going, to i believe they will die e d dial it in now, and realize she is an incumbent. she could have urged joe biden to not relift remain in mexico policy oral kate mmore resources and building the wall, she is quite expert at double flip off of the high dive, it is not persuasive. that was her best moment, the first question that program softball, first day question. presidents down do which can on first days, except

executive orders and joe biden has done all of them that she could want. i was not persuaded schee ed that she could manage a long form interview. drill down on something like fracking and making illegal iillegal immigration have consequences but not tell us what they are, it could be a $5 fine, i think people would shutter at prospect of listening to her for 4 years. >> grim news from gaza hamas would rather hostages be killed than released. will biden-harris administration continue to pressure israel for a ceasefire with a group that killed hostages before they are set to be freed, and what about pro hamas wing of

the democrat party? >> it is a real situation for the democrats if they do not know what to do, i believe kamala harris will be most anti-israel, maybe first anti-israel president we've ever had if she wins, i point out on interview she said 4 times, we have to get a deal, we must get a deal. it seems to me, if the timing is correct, on reports out of israel, the hostages were executed either thursday or friday, hamas should get consequences as should our allies who shelter them, that we have to begin to be serious with iran, iran is funding these killers, one of those 6 who were executed, was hersh pollen, he was 23 years old, a wonderful young man to be a cold blooded killer of someone who was that wonderful of a human being.

you realize that america cannot deal with hamas, we have to stop pushing iz toys israel to slit its own throat by throwing so. trey: hugh hewlett thank you for joining us on a sunday night. >> thank you, for having me, trey. trey: g.o.p. has a thin majority in house, most news worthy thing they have accomplished is replace one speaker with another who did the same thing, the house did stop the biden agenda but that was not enough for some. >> i want my republican colleagues to -- give me one thing that i can campaign on and say we did, can and explain to me one material meaningful significant thing that republican majority has done besides well, i guess it's not add bad as the democrats.

>> that is a republican congressman, cutting an ad for dnc. joining us now former utah congressman jason chaffetz. the margin is thin, because members of california and new york, no disrespect to texas, south carolina and utah, that is not why g.o.p. has majority, they wanted to districts where biden won, how does pushing impeach joe biden and help push kamala harris help keep the house. >> i have not understood the urgency to put kamala harris in to the white house as president of united states, i don't know it. -- i don't understand it we have both served as chairman of oversight committee, you have to pursue the truth and push it all of the time, i don't want them to give up on, that but to suggest they have vote support made case for impeachment at this

time, that is not part of reality, voting in our election starts in two weeks, if you want to express your vote you can do it in an election, best to spend their time effort in energy, trying to make the case that the republican can be the adults in the room to better people's lives, that is what will win the election. that is where they should focus their time. trey: when you and i were there, members have private disagreements but they were usually behind closed-doors, not any more, there are g.o.p. members openly campaigning against colleagues, how does that help keep the majority and how does that facilitate any esspree decore if you have the majority, and campaigning against one another. >> you better take care of your own house and your own election, i don't understand people who spend majority of

their time on social media yet can't point to something they helped build. this is easy to tear something down, there are a dime a dozen, but find us leaders who can pass legislation, it is what your founders envisioned, you have to build a coalition. and so for those that spent this time trying to figure out how to get most tweets or build their social profile without building something, shame on them. i think they should look at those people and say, why do we send them back to congress, we don't need more instagram posts. >> and helps, i'm not great on civics but helps to have senate and white house to pass legislation, that is the focus. not on fighting with one another. if kamala harris wins presidency, it will take the house or senate to block her agenda. the senate is close. in your judgment, what can

g g.o.p. do between now and when votes starts to hold the house? >> well, i think republicans hold the advantage on the issues if they go out and continue to talk about the economy, inflation, the border, safety, security, they did gin their favor, i will give the democrats credit because i think they are better at getting out the vote, that is what scares me, if the g.o.p. will go out and do some things, they better figure out how to play by rules, republicans better figure out how to get out the vote, this is not good enough to just be right on the issues, you also have to be able to get the people out to vote. the world is r is -- run by those who show up, republicans better figure it out. trey: does not hurt for voters to know where kamala harris stands on the issues, they should 13 some time talking about her liberal

senate record, jason chaffetz from the great state of utah thank you for joining us. >> thank you, trey. trey: kamala harris has border amnesia, we found a memory expert. jonathan fahy is next on sunday night in america. r for my patients. try pronamel mouthwash. upset stomach iberogast indigestion iberogast bloating iberogast thanks to a unique combination of herbs, iberogast helps relieve six digestive symptoms to help you feel better. six digestive symptoms. the power of nature. iberogast. chase really knows how to put the hart in your local community. see what i did there? hey, jackie!

(♪♪) trey: welcome back senator kamala harris allow me to introduce you to presidential candidate kamala harris. >> we have to critically reexamine ice. let me be clear him not voting for a wall. >> there is a fence around white house.

what is wrong with a fence for country, what is wrong with keeping killers and rapists and criminals out, biden administration allowed daniel d bo nilla into country, he promised to check in. they lie. he raped someone in new york, dpleede he pleaded guilty and set free that same day, he was not deported because new york is a sanctuary, not for you, but thugs, kamala harris cannot undo the damage she has done, she believes in sanctuaries for criminals but not in safe cities for you. joining us, former acting i.c.e. director jonathan fahey. harris and democrats want to elto eliminate

i.c.e. who would enforce our immigration laws. >> that is the idea. no one would enforce them. it would carry over. from last three and a half years enforcing them at lowest level, you show the clippings and her old statements that is the real kamala harris, this administration's three and a half years shows what they intend to continue doing, they don't make an effort to okay which remarkable, they won't arrest most serious criminals because they don't want to do anything to deter illegal immigrants from coming in they support sanctuary cities that is mind-blowing but i have that not waiverred from that even with the bad politics, they support policies was not deporting anyone, they changed rhetoric a little. but policies by and large remain the same.

trey: the new kamala harris arguing with old kamala harris. >> >> i believe there should be consequence we have laws that have to be followed and enforced. that address and deal with people who cross our border illegally. and there should be consequences, let's be clear in this race, i am the only person who has prosecuted, trans national criminal organization. >> she mentioned consequences and she looks to be clear, let's be clear there, have been consequences people have been raped, probed, assaulted and robbed and assaulted and murdered, some democrats want to pay tuition, provide housing and provide a voting card, what consequences are she talking about? >> there are none, you hit the nail on the head, the consequences are borne by american people and primarily middle class, they always talk about how they want to help, but they pay for it with overcrowding

schools and lack of access to medical care, interesting she talks about she was worked in a border state, a tough prosecutor, let's look at this, the great thing about this election, we have a three and a half year track record to compare to donald trump's track record, what does she did with that experience, did she enforce the laws? did she make it tough for drug cartels and human traffickers? it has been the opposite. >> i'll lit you in on a secret, real prosecutors create sanctuaries, for innocent citizens, innocent american citizens, not sanctuaries for criminals or those who cross the border without permission, a sanctuary should be for people who follow the law not for people who break it jonathan fahey thank you for your service to our country and thank you for joining us

on a sunday night. >> thank you. trey: ahead, politico is communications wing of dnc, now wants kamala harris to have a more weaponized doj, let's see wha lee zeldin thinks about that next on sun"sunday night in america." my name is brayden. i was five years old when i came to st. jude. i'll try and shorten down the story. so i've been having these headaches that wouldn't go away.

my mom, she was just crying. what they said, your son has brain cancer. it was your worst fear coming to life. watching your child grow up is the dream of every parent. you can join the battle to save the lives of kids like brayden, by supporting st. jude children's research hospital . families never receive a bill from st. jude for treatment, travel, housing, or food, so they can focus on helping their child live . what they have done for me, my son, my family-- i'm sorry, yeah. life is a gift, especially for a child battling cancer. call or go online and help save another lives of children like brayden. now, i'm 11 years old. we were actually doing the checkup for my brain. and they saw something in my throat.

it's thyroid cancer. it was heartbreaking to find out that he has cancer again. but we knew who we had behind us. it just gives me hope. you can make a difference. join with your credit or debit card for only $19 a month. and we'll send you this st. jude t-shirt. without st. jude or its donors, we would have been in a bad place. these kids, they've done nothing wrong in the world. finding a cure for childhood cancer, it means everything. help st. jude give kids with cancer a chance.

>> welcome to fox news live. massive housekeeper strike is making for a messy l labor day weekend for top hotel chains, at 25 hotels across 8 cities, they include honolulu, boston. san francisco, and san diego and seattle. hotel staff from other cities could join the strike this week. >> a large scale campaign to get children in gaza vaccinated against the polio is underway, to vaccinate more than 600 thousand kids under the age of 10. they are expected to last 8 hours a day through september 9. >> i am ashley back to "sunday night in america."

trey: welcome back to "sunday night in america," sometimes the facade slips and media exposes itself. couple of years ago i was in dc and took the shuttle from the house to senate to visit a grand, a member of the media ran like gabby thomas, to catch me, he was breathless as he jumped on trolley to ask what i thought about trump administration refusing to cooperate with house democrats some investigation, usually i ignore the media. i asked a simple question. how did adam schiff answer that question what you asked them. why did obama administration refuse to cooperate with republicans, the republican sta stared in silence and said, i get your point. i bet you do, politico taking the mask off. calling for kamala harris to

have a more political attorney general than merrick garland. joining us former new york congressman, lee zeldin. to you, politico wants a more activist doj, how do you get more activist than indicting your political opponents? >> it is clearly a doj that is weaponizing the justice system the politico op-ed wants to see the dojmore weaponized, an attorney general who is more of a democratic operative, they don't advocate for equal scales of justice, criticism of merrick garland is that he is not going far enough to hold the democratic party's water, and joe biden. you see throughout this politico piece, references to getting trump, the average american is actually concerned about a lot of other issues, as their top priorities to decide their

vote and where they want to see rule of law. >> she is runs the ads tells voters who a tough prosecutor she was, i need your help, i thought prosecutors put people in jail, they didn't bond them out, they thought they provided sanctuaries for innocent victims not criminals, what kind of prosecutor was she, not one that we were? >> this is a prosecutorial ideology more aligned with the likes of alvin bragg, in manhattan. alvin bragg comes in day one with his day one memo calling on not prosecutes crimes across board, you look at biden-harris agenda from 2020, they propose getting rid of cashless bail, while kamala harris helping to raise money for fund to bailout people who were trying to burn down minneapolis. those criminals, in many

cases went on to commit additional crimes, she was not helping people who were clean trying to do good, there were a lot of people getting bailed out who proved they were hardened criminals with additional harm committed afterwards, she called for defunding the police, she wants to lock at reimaging -- look at reimaging police, and compared i.c.e. to the kkk that list goes on for people who want prosecutors who prosecute, and you know as retalk about the last -- we talked about last conversation they want a democrat attorney general more like the robert jackson approach, where justice department is following facts, as opposed to a target on a particular person and make up a crime. this is not the type of attorney general or district attorney the type of person we want in charge of rule of law, it impacts laws as well, that make our streets

less safe. trey: you know lee, i wonder if she has donated to any victim funds or funds that provide mental health or counseling for victims of crime. i would be interested to hear her asked that. when trump won in 2016, i can't could of a single political rivalry prosecute the. how do we get out of this cycle of lawfare that we're in, he did not engage in it, the narrative is he would be rhsecretbution and revenge. >> trey, an important point for those who are talking about what it would be like to have a trump administration, we already had 4 years of a trump administration, everything that you are saying that donald trump would do if elected president, not only

did that not happen, when president trump was in white house for 4 years it is happening right now as we live through the biden-harris administration. the threats is not that trump will come in and weaponize the justice system, the threat for the democrats is they are losing the power and ability to weaponize the justice system against their political opponents, clear as day to the rest of us what is the truths facts, as we look at what the consequences are as americans go to the polls between now and november 5. trey: lee zeldin from the great state of new york, my best to your family, hope to see you soon thank you for joining us on a sunday night. >> thanks trey. trey: up next, investigation to attempted murder of donald trump continues to raise questions. congresswoman laura lee is seeking answers and she is next.

trey: welcome back to "sunday night in america," there's nothing like seeing it with your own eyes, visiting a crime scene, good investigators do it. task force investigating donald trump's near murder went to butler, pennsylvania to see what happened and how, where does this stand,

it is still bipartisan? joining us la laurel lee. a member of that task force from the great state of florida welcome. what did you learn? >> it is a very purpose part of a criminal investigation to see the place where something occurred. group of us went to butler, pennsylvania, we had the opportunity to walk around the site, i will tell you it is all the more i inexplicable when you see it, this is a small, rural area we got up to the roof where the shooter was and got a perspective on how close he was able to get to president trump. that was an important step for the members of task force to see. then we went from there and had the opportunity to spend time with the members of state and local law enforcement who were part of the security response that day, hearing their

perspective on both lead up and preparation for the rally and what broke down. ji.. >> whatever disconnect may veckisted, crist wray testified he was not sure it was a bullet. he has changed his mind, but one might think the nation's top cop would get it squared away before testifying before congress, how fourth coming have bureau and doj been. >> they did not get off to a good start, we have director of secret service talking about slope of the roof, some trying to lay flame on local and state law enforcement. however, since we put program the task force, there has been a higher degree of responsiveness to

us, we had briefings from secret service and fbi, and spent time talking with the state and local law enforcement officers there. so far, we have been getting briefings and answers and responsiveness, there is still a long way to go, a lot of questions for us that remain unanswered, among other things how do the site plans take place, what was the preparation in advance, you touched on it, one thing that is clear is there was a break down in communication on the day of event. understanding how something like that could occur, they have a zero fail mission, this day was a disastrous failure from a security perspective that president trump was able to get on the stage that day. so, there is a lot of work yet to do, and this task force, if we don't get the answers and responses that we need then we have s

subpoena authority, we can bring the witnesses in to testify. and several former federal prosecutor who understand how to conduct a criminalistgation as well. trey: before i let you go, i want to point out, some of your colleagues who were not selected for this task force, are doing their own investigation. they may be well intentioned one in particular seems addicted to publicity, i hope the competing investigations are not gives the bureau or department of justice an excuse to not cooperate with yours, yours is the official tasks force. others are just guys and dpgallis out for a walk. >> one of purposes of making this taskers force we did

not want a -- everyone was show shocked and upset and felt that we needed to take immediate action, and so, a number of congressional committees started the process, speaker johnson leader jeffries thought let's put it in one place, that is what will make it go faster, a more efficient process. trey: laurel lee from great state of florida we look forward to finds out what your task force finds, you come back and share it with us. >> i look forward to it. trey: all right, is american dream alive? for our progeny. we hear from an expert how parents cope with challenges of being a parent. on everything with just one card. chase freedom unlimited. so, if you're off the racking... ...or crab cracking, you're cashbacking.

trey: welcome back to "sunday night in america," american dream, owning a home, raising a family, having a se secure retirement. young americans are struggling to get there even with an education, joining us podcast host, welcome to you. are you optimistic about living the dream your parents had, home, family, financial security. a land of opportunity that rewards hard work and

character? are you optimistic that dream is till there. >> thank you, trey, i wish i could say that i am. the truth and i'm not, i think there is a tendency from older generations, you say we gen-z and millennial spend their money onstar bucks and rent, they are not as successful. , the reality, is that not true. the american dream really does not exist for my generation, the government's involvement in housing, healthcare and higher education made the realms, unaffordable, we have to foot the bill for bankrupt pyramid scheme programs, will i ever see social security, i will not. my generation has to deal with increasing inflation, trip crippling student

loans, and government spending money to the securing borders across the globe. we have drugging flooding in here, killing people. the truth is that they are giving up. >> i want you to keep going,ure right. you and i work together, and i'm your parent's generation. i have kids your age, i need to know more about your generation. what scares you most about the future, what is it that my generation does not get about yours. >> well, that say great question. a lot of young people right now, they are not seeing the full picture, there are a llot of people who can identify the problems but the solutions are bad, young people don't blame bidenomics, they blame republicans, they blame the system, they blame capitalism, and republicans are doing nothing to dispel

the left's narratives about why we're in this situation we're in. the right should be messaging, on tiktok to young people, in a digest ible way. young people are there, democrats are paying often flew off -- influeners to get there are message out, republicans should do the same thing. and inch stead, they are messaging on traditional tv, with ads, in the papers, it is not reaching young people. and so the problem is that democrats are the ones who have the monopoly over young people, i fear that they will increasingly embrace collectivism and you will see future americans leader whos radically farther less than joe biden and kamala harris. trey: you are right. easier for me to use a

carrier pigeon than tiktok. but, before i let you go, donald trump calls you and says ei evitta i am struggling one young voters one thing to help. >> i think i'll be honest, a curveball, saying, i'm going to go against the tiktok ban, try to get work with republicans and congress and democrats. we have the security state controlling our social media companies, the reengt they they want to get rid of tiktok because they can't control tiktok. signals to young people he cares about our privacy and security and our ability to express ourselves on the internet that would go a long way. trey: evitta duffy alfanzo.

i hope you are a better boss than i was. >> thank you for joining us. >> i love working for you, trey, thank you. trey: i loved having you. parenting is hard, young people feel the pressure, but so do their parents. the surgeon general addressed well being of parents half say their days are overwhelming, compared to a quarter of those without kids. families today deal with different challenges like social media, school safety, what do we do? let's ask s psychiatrist dr. safi thank you for joining us. the truths is that parenting is hard work, and it may be getting harder. >> and rein reason, is structure of the family has changed from 20 or 30 years ago in the day we relied on

communities it took a village. to raise our kids, we relied on parents, a lot of times parents lived with adult children to help raise the kids, now, the parents are lonelier, they are doing everything themselves. and now both parents are working. when back in the day, one of the parents. would stay home and take care of kids full time, dynamic of family has changed with that a new set of problems. trey: all right, as parents, i am one, it heards to see your children suffer, to see them not be successful. but, what is the best way for parents to actually help. we hear this phrase, helicopter parents, they are always ready to rush in and to save the day and sometimes you learn from not succeeding. >> one of the big differences between parenting today and back in the day, back then our

parents took a hands off approach they trusted authority figures to raise our kids in the way they should, they were not involved in every aspect of their kiddie life, nowadays the parents are involved in everything, we taking ability from kids to stan on their own two feet to be independent until they are 18, it not until in a go to college they all of a sudden learn it deal with their own obstacles and problems in life, we're not doing a favor to our kids by micro manages there are youth. i know it is difficult, and parents feel guilty if they don't get involved. you really need to know what to step back and let your kids make their own mistakes, they will and you don't want it to be as an adult but in childhood. trey: i don't want to ignore young men, i used to be one, i am really concerned about young women. i read an article that young girls are using anti-aging

products. i don't mean sun screen, true anti-aging products, what is going on with young girls in this pressure to look or be perfect, due to social media, they compare themselves to perfection, helen of troy was a couple of years ahead of me in high school, but this standard is damaging to me to young women. >> you said it right. it is social media that is causing to us have this corrupt unrealistic expectations of ourselves, now that we have a.i. too it shard for kids to determine who is real and what is not, our kids are physically in home but mentally elsewhere, in the day they were physically active outside but you knew where they were mentally, nowadays they are always on the screen on social media, they are exposed to unrealistic

images of humans, they could they have to look that way, a young developing mind is vulnerable to compare son, they look at others. i think you set it best. we know where the problem coming from it is social media. trey: i hope the kids and more importantly the parents, are listening to you, dr. safai . thank you for joining us, helping us with a challenging difficult mental health issue. >> thank you, for having me, trey. trey: thank you for spending part of your sunday with us, i hope you have a great labor day and a great week. until next week you can find us on-line, good night from south carolina. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >>
