ARE VOTING AND THAT'S THE ANGLE. JOINING ME NOW IS TULSI GABBARD, FORMER DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSWOMAN AND MEMBER OF TRUMP'S TRANSITION TEAM. TULSI, IT IS FANTASTIC TO SEE YOU TONIGHT AS ALWAYS WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF MERRICK GARLAND DECIDING TO COME OUT A FEW DAYS AFTER THE DEBATE IN A VERY HOT POLITICAL SEASON. >> IT'S HARD NOT TO LAUGH AT HIS STATEMENT WHERE HE TRIED TO SOUND SO SERIOUS AND SO CONVICTED AND SO GRAVE ABOUT NEVER EVER POLITICIZING OR WEAPONIZING THESE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES WHEN, IN FACT, THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE DOING CURRENTLY AND WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN DOING FOR YEARS. WORDS TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. WHY DON'T YOU START INVESTIGATING SOME OF YOUR OWN FEDERAL AGENCIES. LIKE THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY AND TSA AND ASK THEM WHY AFTER ONE DAY, THE VERY NEXT DAY AFTER I CALLED OUT KAMALA HARRIS FOR BEING A DANGER TO OUR COUNTRY SHOULD SHE BE ELECTED AS PRESIDENT? I GOT ADDED TO A SECRET DOMESTIC TERRORIST LIST. THAT'S A GOOD PLACE TO START. WHY DOESN'T HE START BY GOING AFTER PEOPLE WITHIN HIS OWN FBI WHO AFTER FBI AGENT STEVE FRIEND BLUE BLEW THE WHISTLE HOW THE FBI BEING USED AS POLICE FORCE. PERSONAL PARTISAN POLICE FORCE. HE WAS ATTACKED BY THE LEADERSHIP OF THE FBI. DOING HIM, EXPOSING HIS OWN PRIVATE MEDICAL RECORDS AND SO FORTH. AND THEN OBVIOUSLY YOU TALKED ABOUT THE EXAMPLES WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP THAT ARE TOO MANY TO CITE. BUT THAT HAVE BEEN MADE VERY CLEAR TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND THOSE PAYING ATTENTION WITH ANY OBJECTIVITY THAT THIS IS LAWFARE. THIS IS THE KIND OF THING THAT HAPPENS IN DICTATORSHIPS AND AUTHORITARIAN GOVERNMENTS WHERE THOSE WHO ARE IN POUR, KAMALA HARRIS AND JOE BIDEN ARE WEAPONIZING AND POLITICIZING THE LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES BOTH AT THE FEDERAL AND STATE LEVEL TO TAKE OUT THEIR POLITICAL OPPONENT. THE GREATEST THREAT TO THEIR POWER IN A WAY THAT HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE IN OUR COUNTRY'S HISTORY. THAT'S WHERE HE SHOULD START. >> Laura: TULSI, THE PROBLEM FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT THIS CROSSES BOTH PARTIES, RIGHT? WE SAW ALBERTO GONZALES A LOT OF PEOPLE WATCHING MIGHT NOT REMEMBER WHO HE IS. BUT HE WAS ONE OF GEORGE W. BUSH'S ATTORNEYS GENERAL. HE IS A NICE GUY. NICE FELLOW. BE HE CAME OUT AND ENDORSED HARRIS LIKE THAT WAS GOING TO EFFECT LITERALLY ANYONE'S VOTE. INCREASINGLY THOSE OFFICIALS ARE JUST SEEN AS ONE AND THE SAME. BUT THEY KEEP DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I GUESS THINKING THERE IS GOING TO BE A DIFFERENT RESULT. BUT, IN THE END, THE INSTITUTIONS THAT THEY CAME TO CLAIM TOCARE SO MUCH ABOUT ARE T HARMED. >> THE POINT THAT YOU JUST MADE ABOUT HOW THIS ISN'T ABOUT ONE PARTY VERSUS THE OTHER, IT'S ABOUT THIS PERMANENT WASHINGTON ESTABLISHMENT THAT CARES MORE FOR THEIR OWN POWER, THE POWER OF THEIR GOVERNMENT THAT THEY CONTROL OVER THE VOICES AND THE POWER OF A FREE PEOPLE LIVING IN A FREE SOCIETY THAT'S WHERE PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS EXPOSED THEM FOR WHO THEY ARE. THIS ISN'T ABOUT DEMOCRATS VERSUS REPUBLICANS. IT IS A CHOICE FOR VOTERS IN THIS ELECTION BETWEEN FREEDOM VS. TYRANNY. BETWEEN PEACE AND WAR. ECONOMIC PROSPERITY AND ECONOMIC HARDSHIP. SO, WE SHOULDN'T BE SURPRISED WHEN WE SEE PEOPLE LIKE THAT FORMER ATTORNEY GENERAL, PEOPLE LIKE DICK CHENEY AND LIZ CHENEY AND ADAM KINZINGER AND OTHERS GO AND JUMP ON KAMALA HARRIS' BANDWAGON AND FOR KAMALA HARRIS TO SAY I'M HONORED. PLEASE, COME AND JOIN US. >> Laura: OH, GOD. >> NOT THAT LONG AGO THESE SAME DEMOCRATS WERE CALLING HIM A WAR CRIMINAL. IT EXPOSES THEM FOR WHO THEY REALLY ARE THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THE COUNTRY OR THE CONSTITUTION OR THE PEOPLE. IT'S ABOUT THEM AND THEIR POWER. TULSI FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP ANNOUNCED TODAY ON TRUTH SOCIAL HE WILL NOT DO A DEANOTHER DEBATE WITH KAMALA HARRIS. WHAT IS THE THINKING BEHIND THAT DECISION? >> I HAVEN'T GOTTEN ANY KIND OF INSIDER BRIEF THAT I CAN SHARE WITH YOU. BUT, FOR ME, IF I HAD TO GUESS, PRESIDENT TRUMP WENT IN TO A DEBATE WHERE IT WAS THREE VERSUS ONE. IT WAS COMPLETELY BIASED. IT WAS THE PROPAGANDA MEDIA THAT'S IN THE POCKET OF KAMALA HARRIS AND THE DEMOCRAT ELITE GOING UP AGAINST DONALD TRUMP. IT IS POLITICAL THEATER THAT THEY WANT TO USE AS A MEANS TO SPREAD THEIR PROPAGANDA AND WHY WOULD HE? WHY WE WALK INTO THAT AGAIN? I THINK HE WERE TO DO ANY KIND OF DEBATE. IT WOULD HAVE TO BE -- HE WOULD HAVE TO BE GUARANTEED A COMPLETELY NEUTRAL SETTING. THING IS NONE OF THESE PROPAGANDA MEDIA WHO LIKE TO CALL THEMSELVES JOURNALISTS WHEN THEY ARE NOT, THEY CAN'T BE TRUSTED AND ABC JUST PROVED THAT POINT. SO, I DON'T DISAGREE WITH HIS DECISION. CAN I SEE WHY HE DOESN'T A REDO OF THAT AM BUSHES AND ATTACK. >> Laura: WELL, WE WOULD HAV
