our "crashing in crew" this week. welcome, everybody. rick, the obama administration admitting that they know some of the money will likely end up in the hands of terrorists yet they give it to them anyway. why? >> it's totally unexplainable. for anyone to say we owe them this money or it was their money, what they forget in the preceding 39 years since the dispute started is that iran has killed u.s. servicemen and women. they have killed americans. they have maimed our personnel. how in the world do you excuse killing of americans and say well we owe you money? so we're going to give this money back. we should have taken the -- we should have done with that $400 million is given it to victims of iran's terrorism. they are the number one state sponsored of terrorism. you don't give them money. >> can you believe that they admit they go to the podium and say we know the money will end up in terrorist's hands and we give it anyway. look, drug dealer -- think about the drug dealer on the street fuchlt owe him money or he has some of your money and gets busted dealing drugs, guess what

with prime minister lee and president obama. the headline saying -- presidentite that the implored republicans do on endorse donald trump. trump meanwhile today laid out some specifics on policy. in this case, infrastructure. the headline in the wall street journal, donald trump proposes 500 $50 billion in new government debt. today, he promised to take on a lot more dead on behalf of the american people. mr. trump told fox business network he would spend double the amount hillary clinton has proposed to rebuild u.s. infrastructure and would finance that spending with debt. >> we will make a phenomenal interest ratesow and we will have to rebuild our infrastructure. the wallton writes street journal has promised $225 billion in infrastructure spending this year. congress is set to turn their attention to when they return. a lot of members calling on zikaess to return over the funding issue. in particular after the outbreak reported in miami this week and the cdc telling folks not to travel to portions of miami. here is a tweet from the republican representing the 27th district in m

in washington. donald trump is taking fire from all sides tonight. president obama, veterans groups, fellow republicans. and he is lashing out in response. tonight, he is even threatening to cut the cord with some of the top republicans in congress. we have fox team coverage of the 2016 race. mike emmanuel with the clinton campaign in colorado, celebrating positive numbers in the polls. and money in the bank. kevin corke at the white house with president obama's most critical comments yet about donald trump. we begin with john roberts in new york and republicans turning perhaps on each other. good evening, john. >> good evening to you, bret. barely a week after the republican convention and all those calls for party unity. hedging his bets on speaker paul ryan, senator john mccain of arizona and new hampshire's kelly ayotte in a wide-ranging interview with the washington post here is what donald trump said about speaker ryan. quote, i'm just not quite there yet, mirroring language ryan used about him this year when asked if he would support donald trump. trump indicating a bit of a

frustrated by hearing president obama, the man i voted for for twice. i'm glad i did, but announcing measures or making arguments or making moves that i thought betrayed the promise that he had made to the progressives and doing what i think be trained the progressives. then i thought he said i more than one occasion, hold me accountable. so i think it is fair as we near the end of his presidency to hold him accountable. >> how long would that been? >> about a year and a half. >> that is a long story. i measure that sure that we have time for that story. during that time bernie and i never talked about barack obama or any other disappointment and brock obama. i'm not sure where you're going but i wanted to make that clear. the reason i did is because i was a member of the white house press corps, i had a standing white house pass, went to the briefings every day. i needed them for my own program and i could ask questions. so i thought i could expand that opportunity by getting a press press credential at the united states capital. i applied for a press at the united states capital an

" starts now. the rom nominee blaming president obama and former secretary of state hillary clinton for "founding the terrorist group isis." literally he says being the founders of isis. of course that is completely untrue but focusing on what role they played has he scored a big media victory. >> separation of foundation and state, that is the way it was supposed to work but now cnn tell u.s. they had secret meetings and the next head of the clinton foundation and today the state department is refusing to answer this direct question of did clinton's top aide violate ethics rules. desperation, doctors sending a letter to president obama saying we don't need your prayers, we don't need your tears, we need you to stop the bombing. >>> another story breaking this afternoon. the never trump republicans, some of them are still working. 75 republican party officials including former members of the house and senate and others that worked with gop candidates and elected officials at every level are going beyond saying we can't vote for trump. they are circulating a letter that is encouraging on

doubling down on an outright lie against president obama and hillary clinton. this is cnn tonight, i'm don lemon. donald trump claims isis honors both of them and for this reason. >> i call president obama and hillary clinton the founders of isis. they're the founders. >> he also that both would be eligible for the terror group's most valuable player award. clinton shows those remarks are not fit to be president and panic in the gop over the direction of trump's campaign. a draft is circulating among top republicans to divert dollars away from donald trump and move them towards vulnerable gop down ballot candidates and clinton's e-mail scandal, the newly released information shows scandal. we'll talk about that tonight. i want to begin with jim acosta and chief political correspondent, dana bash. good evening to both of you. >> we'll start with you, down there in florida covering the trump campaign. he's not backing down from his message clinton and president obama founded isis. he's completely wrong. what is he saying tonight? >> yeah, don, he quadrupled down on this you might say. he tal

message. he only talked about obama and hillary, and he offered solutions to very significant problems that we face in a country and a world. and his trip to louisiana earlier today. >> i think this is clearly the best week he has had, and i think ewe right, part of what made it so powerful is he showed leadership. he dealt with irreconcilable -- and developing a very powerful speech and delivered it it very well. he showed leadership in north carolina, in going to louisiana at a time when you have barack obama golfing and not able to get off of a vacation. hillary clinton tired and taking a day or two off to rest. so you saw real leadership. in his speech today, there is a clear statement that he wants to be a vehicle to change their lives. so offer them a chance to have safety in police stations like milwaukee, chicago, and baltimore. he wants to represent all americans. all americans in their appeal, that means i think that is the best week so far. . >> we have 81 days to go now. if we're looking for the secret sauce, i think it is about winning days. but objectively speaki

the united states. president obama today chose to become a campaign attack dog doing the bidding of his globalist masters and mr. obama actually declare donald trump is unfit to be president. >> the republican nominee is unfit to serve as president. i said so last week and he keeps on improving it. he is woefully unprepared to do this job. lou: woefully unprepared. trump responded in part with the tweet which reads quote president obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the united states. end quote. make -- running make governor mike pence hitting back at president obama the tucson town hall. >> it really is amazing, i got up this morning here in tucson and i saw the present of united states on television. the president actually said that our nominee was quote unfit to serve as president. he said and i'm quoting, the fact that he doesn't appear to have basic knowledge about critical issues in europe and the middle east and asia means that he is woefully unprepared to do this job. while allowing for the fact that a rock obama knows a lot about being woeful

contrast to the job killing, tax raising, poverty inducing obama-clinton agenda. [applause] so important, the state of new york has already lived through hillary clinton's failed leadership. "the washington post" today published an article on her broken promises. she pledged 200,000 jobs for upstate new york when she was a senator. what happened? the washington post writes and i quote, upstate job growth stagnated overall during her tenure with manufacturing jobs plunging to record-setting levels, nearly 25%. the former first lady was totally unable to pass big-ticket legislation. many promised jobs. many promised. i remember so well. vote for hillary, i will bring you jobs. vote for jobs, she will bring back jobs. many promised jobs never materialized and others migrated to other states. she turned her first presidential run, which also was a disaster. [applause] thank you. then it shows that upstate actually lost jobs, a lot of them, during her first term. she was all talk, no action, upstate new york, a disaster. it is a disaster, what's happened to upstate new york. nafta is a big re

really puts out there profound differences between how he would deal with isis versus hillary and obama, i have to ask you about this situation in milwaukee. we just played the tape. you have people saying burn down the white suburbs and other people asking are they white, yeah they're white, get their ass, he's white, beat him. you've seen the violence and the video, what's your reaction to th this. >> first, this is the tragic collimation of eight years of total failure of president barack obama who has attacked police and rendered judgment when he didn't know knowing about what was going on and increased racial hostility. a poll reports we have the greatest tension that we've had in 16 years between the races. this is a tragedy to have an african-american president fail. remember that there were nine people shot and five killed in milwaukee in the 48 hours before this happened, but because they were just shot and killed without a involved for some reason black lives matter didn't think black lives mattered as long as no policeman were involved. you have an african-american policeman

so inspired i actually dedicated wake up america to president obama. i did literally. happy birthday, mr. president. hope you read the book. you just might learn something. have a great weekend, everybody. >>> good evening, everybody. i'm lou dobbs. the battle between hillary clinton and the mainstream media against donald trump and our middle class is escalating. tonight it's clearer than ever that the republican nominee is caught in a bitter battle against not only hillary but the establishment, the mainstream liberal media, the radical left, the globalist establishment, foreign gofs and radical islamists as well. nearly all of them however are in a panic about the possibility donald trump will become president of the united states. so president obama chose to become a campaign attack dog and mr. obama actually declared donald trump is unfit to be president. >> the republican nominee is unfit to serve as president. i said so last week and he keeps on proving it. he's woefully unprepared to do this job. >> woefully unprepared. resonates doesn't it. trump responded with a tw

here on fox business. lou: good evening, i am lou dobbs, a shocking admission from obama administration, and the state department. today state department confirming that administration broke decade of tradition by payinpay ransom to iran, saying they $400 million cash payment to the iranian government in january was contingent on the release of american prisoners. >> payment was contingent on their release. >> i'm saying is -- right? >> i'm saying is, because we had concerns that iran may reneg on the prisoner release, given delays, we were regarding persons in iran and mutual mistrust, we naturally sought to retain maximum leverage until after the americans were released. >> basic english, you say you would not give them the $400 million in cash until prisoners were released, correct? >> that is correct. lou: that is not what president obama secretary of state john carry and john kirby state department spokesman have been saying listen to kerry and mr. obama. >> we announced the payments in january. many months ago. there was not a secret, we announced them. to all of yo

minister and president obama held a joint news conference where he said donald trump is "fully unprepared." the washington times writing this is donald trump for in an unusual degree for a sitting president is you can see the news conference beginning 8:00 eastern on c-span. here is part of what the president said. >> thank you, mr. president. given the republican nominee's recent comments about the khan family in that as president he would consider recognizing russia's's annexation of crimea. does this make you recognizes temperament to be president? use of the worst mistake of your presidency may have been your failure to plan for the aftermath of the 2011 nato intervention in libya. the new decision to t results is a direc of that. ? president obama: yes, i think the republican nominee is unfit to be president. he keeps proving it. the notion that he would attack haved star family that made such extraordinary sacrifices on behalf of of our fact that he does not appear to have basic knowledge around critical issues asiarope, the middle east, , means he is woefully unprepared to do this

pacific with the obama administration consistently over work and pushing. partners, friends who have come to the table, negotiated, each one of them has overcome some domestic political objection some political cost to come to the table and make this deal. and if at the end, at the altar the bride doesn't arrive, people are going to be very hurt not just emotionally but damaged. for a long time to come. mister abe, some of his predecessors thought about and decided not to participate, they came very close, prepared the ground, walked away but mister abe decided to commit because he wonts his country to manage and open up the market and this is one way to do it. you don't do this while it hurts mister abe but it hurts the relationship with japan, your security agreement with japan and the japanese living in an uncertain world depending on american nuclear umbrella, will have to say on trade, the americans could not follow through in which life and death, who do you depend upon? and absolutely serious calculation which will not be said openly but i have no doubts. if you go beyond that

founder of isis, donald trump steps up his attacks calling president obama the founder of isis, and hillary clinton the cofounder. even when asked if he really means it, he insists it is not a mistake. and trump takes heat from gop leaders. but trump says he prefers his style and refuses to tune it county. >>> a russian cyber attack. officials are blaming russia for what the to democrat is calling an electronic water gate. hillary clinton slammed donald trump's tax cut and that it would help millionaires and trump would pay a lower rate than middle class families. >>> i'm wolf blitzer, you're in "the situation room." >>> donald trump may be going for broke right now despite repeated calls to tone down his campaign. he is calling president obama the founder of isis and hillary clinton the cofounder. asked by interviewers if he really means that, trump refused to back down. he said today that he will keep doing what he is doing and if he does not win in november, he will enjoy "a very, very nice long vacation." republican leaders are concerned about the direction of trump's campaign.

barack obama. watch this. >> when we arrived in south carolina yesterday, this was the state newspaper. clinton camp hits obama, attacks painful for black voters. many in state offended by criticism of obama and remarks about martin luther king. it's as if you are minimizing, i have a dream. it's a nice sentiment, but it took a white president to get blacks to the mountaintop. >> and in another ad, the trump campaign slams hillary clinton's support of then president clinton's crime bill and her use of the term "super predator." look at this. >> they are often the kinds of kids that are called super predators. no conscience. no empathy. we can talk about why they ended up that way, but first we have to bring them to heel. >> you called out president clinton for defending secretary clinton's use of the term super predator back in the '90s when she supported the crime bill. why did you call him out? >> because it was a racist term, and everybody knew it was a racist term. >> no conscience. >> it's a very well thought out crime bill that is both smart and tough. >> no empathy. >>

and it's not true today. we're finding utilize morthe qu between the obama administration and the clinton foundation. a bahrain official was told to channel his request through the foundation. that sounds like quid pro quo to me. >> we're learning more about this because of judicial watch which has been relentless about going after these e-mails and trying to find out more about clinton foundation, clinton private servers. the response from the clinton campaign, once again this right wing organization that has been going after the clintons since the 1990s is distorting facts to make utterly false attacks. no matter how this group tries to mischaracterize these documents, the fact remains hillary clinton never took action as secretary of state because of donations to the clinton foundation. >> look, the pattern of them saying one thing and doing another and having a set of rule and everyone else has gone back 30 years. they've used the same line of response, that this is a right wing attack, yet every time there's been evidence that it happened, and textbooks tit waso said she exhi

we're going to win house seats. >> and barack obama who is at 54%. >> and obama, sure. >> had good job numbers this week. so tying her and the rest of our ballot to proven leaders who have improved the economy since the great rescission, i'm not afraid of that at all. >> we're going to leave it right there. appreciate it gentlemen. >>> still ahead, president barack obama breaking another historic barrier, this time attacking a potential success are, republican presidential candidate donald trump. more on the president's line of attacks. stay with us. >> listen to what mr. has to say say and make your own judgment on how confident you feel about his ability to manage things like our nuclear triad. with my moderate to severe crohn's disease,... ...i was always searching for ways to manage my symptoms. i thought i had it covered. then i realized managing was all i was doing. when i finally told my doctor, he said humira was for people like me who have tried other medications,... but still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohn's disease. in clinical studies, the majority of p

of tout the success of the obama/biden ticket in 2008 and 2012 in this area and trying to parlay some of that on to hillary clinton but what we walked away from was a total trump takedown and again thises that sitting vice president. obviously everyone will say of course, this is a democrat supporting hillary clinton, he'll take down donald trump but that doesn't get at -- and we've seen this from the president and now we're seeing it from the sitting vice president -- about how rare it is even in these partisan days for a sitting vice president to say thing s like "without hesitation i can say no major party nominee in history has known less or been less prepared to deal with national security." and what amazes him that he doesn't seem to want to learn about it. these are just complete gutting of donald trump to a home crowd but also someone who goes to work everyday at 1600 pennsylvania avenue. >> and at the dnc referring to that's a line of a bunch of malarkey, which donald trump has become famous, you're fired. >> that's exactly right. i think he was playing to this crowd. on

the world, thanks you for joining us. >>> president obama is on the ground to get a firsthand look at devastation left behind after catastrophic flooding. the president just arriving moments ago. he is there to check out flooding areas that so far we have seen over the past several days and claimed at least 13 lives. also you have as many as half a million people affected by this. but the president's trip follows criticism from some who think he should have been there sooner. our nick valencia is live in denham springs, louisiana, just a few miles east of baton rouge. we have michelle kozinski who is at the white house. nick, tell us what the president is scheduled to see while he is there and what the expectations are from flood victims during visit. >> we just saw president obama land a short time ago. he was greeted by the governor, local congressman and member of fema. he will be ushered over to one of the nine parishes affected by this significant flooding over the course of the last ten days. much of that water has receded but problems here still remain. pre residents here don't

clinton, quite frankly, she'll be secretary of the same. same old failed policies of barack obama. same failed job growth that we've seen across our country for the last seven years. we don't need four more years of secretary the same in hillary clinton. we need a change agent in donald trump. >> if he runs as change, he'll win the election, he just needs to get out of his own way. the election is boiling down to hillary clinton, who he's tagged as the lying, incompetent runner of a rigged system who you can't trust and will deliver you the same policies as president obama, or you have an outsider who will tell you the truth most of the time which will hurt, but he'll never lie to you. if he can frame it that way and t tie hillary to the policies of president obama, he has a chance at winning independents and rallying his own base. because i think the base loves the trump they've seen in the last week and a half with the teleprompter and going to milwaukee where there's pain and suffering, going to louisiana where he's pain and suffering. i think you're seeing a comeback, would you agre

prove it. >>> and the brilliant best selling author malcolm gladwell with his -- what barack obama has in common with gin goers and his plans to remake the olympic games. but first here's my take. earlier this week i was asked on cnn to make sense of one more case in which donald trump had said something demdemonstrate false. trump is many things, some of them dark and dangerous, but at his core, he is dangerous. a brilliant es kay in 1986 called "on bullshit." frankford distinguishes crucially between lies and b.s. telling a lie is an act with a sharp focus. it is designed to insert a particular falsehood at a specific point. in order to invent a lie at all, the teller of a lie must think he knows what is true. but someone engaging in b.s., frankford explains is neither on the side of the true nor on the side of the false, his eye is not on the facts at all. his focus is panoramic, rather than particular. with more spacious opportunities for improvisation, hence the familiar notion of the "bullshit artist." this has been donald trump's -- much of it is a concoction of hyperbole and bu

ryan happened on the same day that president obama hammered trump in a white house press conference for being far too prone to gaffes to be president. the president saying, quote, this isn't a situation where you have an episodic gaffe. this is daily and weekly. that's president obama on donald trump there earlier this week. president obama, of course, not particularly known for making gaffes of his own. the eight years of his presidency, whatever you think of him, they've been pretty much free of gaffes. but arguably, the biggest gaffe that barack obama ever made came not when he was president, but when he was a candidate for president. you got to go back a little bit more than eight years ago, april, 2008, barack obama, then a u.s. senator competing against hillary clinton, just weeks before the pennsylvania primary. at a private fund-raiser in san francisco, obama was describing his lack of appeal, the struggle he was experiencing at that time to connect to blue collar white voters, a big constituency in pennsylvania. and it was at that fund-raiser in san francisco, in comments he di

argument. they've been trying to say throughout the obama presidency that obama care is killing jobs, that obama's policies are harming the economy, but we've seen the deficit come down. we've seen unemployment come down, job growth continue. 14.7 million jobs have been added in the private sector shins since obama care was signed. that make it is a difficult argument. republicans are shifting to growth which has been slow harks been weak harks been tepid, and trying to make their argument there, but the actual economic light, americans have lived it, is different for a lot. not for everyone. certainly trump's base, those non-college educated voters, have seen their economic prospects stagnate and look pretty bleak. a lot of others benefited in this economy. >> john, there are many parts of this plan that we already know. i should say, there is one new item on the list and that is to make all child care expenses deductible. maybe we'll hear a little bit more about that today. one thing that jumped out to me once you went down this laundry list of details for the trump economic plan i

say at this point. >> you talk about deterrence, and along the same lines, a year ago obama signed an agreement to try to work out how to not have intellectual property theft. what are you saying as far as what we have seen from the chinese in the past year? it sounds like you're trying to change their behavior through an agreement like that. i was wondering what you had to say about that. also, how you think we should react to the russians -- have we done anything along those lines in the administration to react to that? mr. comey: i will only answer the first part of that come up for the reasons i said earlier. i will not comment on anything -- it is still early, but we see encouraging signs in the way our chinese counterparts are talking about and understanding the framework that i discussed that nation gazed -- nationstates do not engage in theft for commercial purposes. the talk is right, and there are early indications of efforts to cooperate with us in investigating and bringing to justice people who have done that. that said, it is early. and it is a process that takes a lo

night and a day contrast to the job killing, tax raising, poverty inducing obama-clinton agenda. [applause] so important, the state of new york has already lived through hillary clinton's failed leadership. "the washington post" today published an article on her broken promises. she pledged 200,000 jobs for upstate new york when she was a senator. what happened? the washington post writes and i quote, upstate job growth stagnated overall during her tenure with manufacturing jobs plunging to record-setting levels, nearly 25%. the former first lady was totally unable to pass big-ticket legislation. many promised jobs. many promised. i remember so well. hillary, i will bring you jobs. vote for jobs, she will bring back jobs. many promised jobs never materialized and others migrated to other states. she turned her first presidential run, which also was a disaster. [applause] thank you. then it shows that upstate actually lost jobs, a lot of them, during her first term. she was all talk, no action, upstate new york, a disaster. it is a disaster, what's happened to upstate new york. n

blazer. the campaign was clear this trip was designed to draw a contrast with president obama, who has been criticized by some for not interrupting his martha's vineyard vacation to visit the disaster region. we should note that the democratic governor of louisiana has said he preferred the president hold off so it does not interrupt recovery efforts. the white house announced today obama will go on tuesday. these types of visits after natural disasters are part of the gigs for presidents and presidential candidates. how did trump do today? margaret: he did not blow t. he is down there trying. there are a couple of things. number one, john bel edwards did say initially it was too soon for obama to go. and by extension, you can imagine his priority number one was probably not to have the republican nominee stumping for votes. the question for trump is twofold. number one, how does the public in louisiana respond and how does the nation see it? do they see it as him being concerned for the people of louisiana or do they see it as a photo op? joshua: i thought it was interesting. obvi
