"the ingraham angle" starts in just seconds. ♪ ♪ ♪ the trial starts on monday which is long before the judge

thought go as fast as possible for his reasons not for my reasons. this is really a concerted witch-hunt. very simple. >> pete: that was president trump today. i'm pete hegseth in for laura ingraham. this is a special i addition ever "the ingraham angle" live tonight from new york city. the stage is set for trump's hush money trial, the 12 jurors and six alternates finalized today opening statements start on monday. nate foy is live outside the courthouse with more. hey, nate. >> hey, pete, so, yeah, opening statements set to happen on monday. the jury is seated in former president donald trump believes that the trial is being rushed on truth social. he says that he is being railroaded by judge juan merchan contentious moments at the end of court today. trump stood up perhaps a bit early. the judge told him to sit right back down. judge merchan told trump's legal team that they can't continue

challenging each of his decisions in an effort to delay the trial. while leaving court tonight, trump spoke about the judge and president joe biden. listen here. >> everything you heard in there this is a witch-hunt by numerous judges. this is a giant witch-hunt to try to hurt a campaign that's beating the worst president in history. biden is the worst president in the history of our country. beating him by a lot. >> pete, the former president is also frustrated with the court's gag order. he feels that others can talk about him like his former laura michael cohen but the gag orders prevents him from responding there will be a hearing on tuesday about potential sanction force possible gag order violations. today the court selected five additional alternate jurors. four women and one man. that means all 12 jurors and six alternates are now sworn in, ready for opening statements on monday. take a look at this video, pete. a crazy and disturbing moment

outside the courthouse this afternoon. a man lit himself on fire. you are seeing the aftermath of that here. that man is in critical condition at the cornell burn center tonight. police say he came to new york from florida within the past week and posted conspiracy theories online. >> we do not believe he is targeting any particular person or any particular group. we just right now labeling it as sort of a conspiracy theorist. >> judge merchan promised a ruling on monday morning before opening statements about what prosecutors can bring up if former president trump testifies. something that he has said he would like to do. we'll send it back to you, pete. >> pete: nate, thank you very much. they never reveal the name. >> going to testify? >> yes. >> pete: trump reiterating today he will testify. but the gag order needs to be thrown out. watch. >> the gag order has to come off. people are allowed to speak

about me and i have a gag order. just to show you how much more unfair it is. they are taking away my constitutional rights to speak. that includes speaking to you. i have a lot to say to you, and i'm not allowed to say it. everyone else can say whatever they want about me. they can say anything they want. they can continue to make up lies and everything else. >> pete: joining me now fox news contributor and george washington university law professor jonathan turley. professor, help me out on the gag order. there is going to be a ruling on tuesday, is he gagged but he continues to speak how do you see this playing out this is the troubling aspect of this order these gag orders have become very commonplace but this is anything but your most common case. you have got a dhoft is running for president in an election and turn on for millimeter voters the weapons of illegal system. this case. politicization of that the case

is legally absurd. and it's being brought for political purposes and the timing by in my view the district attorneys' office. there can be in regard to michael cohen. this is also another you have a witness who is essentially campaigning against trump not just talking about this case but going on the air and campaigning against him as president. calling for people to vote against. and you are telling a candidate that he cannot respond. in the very least the judge could make exceptions with regard to witnesses who are now actively campaigning against a candidate for the presidency. you think so nothing ordinary about this. the judge also decided that alvin bragg's team doesn't have to give advanced notice of the

witnesses appear to testify against president trump, apparently his legal team to know. right now giving him a single name and come out on sunday night. can that be right? witnesses are? >> well, judges often let prosecutors in my view hold the names back to the very last minute. i'm criminal defense attorney and it drives me crazy. i have not seen anything like this because what they -- the prosecutor said was because we think is he violating the gag order, we are not going to give him other names, that's not one of the sanctions for violating the gag order. you can see $1,000 jail time. but to endanger a fair trial in due process is not on that menu. and, in my view. this is a case where the judge could have said come on. we are going to deal with that contempt. i might just rule against the

defendant. if these witnesses may be called in the next 24 hours, you need to give those names over to the defense. instead, the judge just sort of shrugged and said i'm not going to delay this trial. we're starting on monday. it's moments like that cause me some concern. the judge has a good reputation with some. on moments like that i'm concerned that he could do more to guarantee the fairness of this trial. >> pete: you think? the trump team doesn't get to know what the charges are, specifically, many which are past the statute of limitations. hot witnesses are and who can't talk. the says he plans to testify today. most defense attorneys would crawl to a fetal position to have their clients testify in a case like this. but i wouldn't put it past donald trump he tends to rush. in i think he also wants to make his case directly to the jury. it will depend on monday and what the judge excludes from the

prosecutor for cross-examination. >> pete: interesting. we will be watching. professor, thanks for your breakdown. trump railing against the lawfare campaign. >> this is a witch-hunt by numerous judges, democrat judges. you take a look at it, edge goran is a whack job a disgrace. whether it's judge caplin with a person i have no idea until they called and said they are suing us, i had no idea who this person was or this judge or if you look at engoron where he said that mar-a-lago, which if it was worth a billion or a billion and a half dollars he said it was worth $18 million. all over the world they are watching it and seeing it. this is a giant witch-hunt to try to hurt a campaign that's beating the worst president in history. >> pete: ned ryun american majority founder joining me now. ned, is he right?

and how are people perceiving this as they watch this unfold no cameras in the courtroom. they are seeing hearing about the judges rulings. how is it playing out? >> trump is absolutely right. this law o la lawfare. you can't tell me coming together in election year wasn't highly coordinated by the biden white house in an attempt to take trump out. a lot of the normies are watching this. and obviously, when this judge told trump that he couldn't go to barren barron's high school graduation. i would like trump to do that the normies the complete abuse of what is taking place. you know, professor turley talked, about you know, he hoped that this court case is about fairness. fairness is not the point, pete. the point is to take out the chief political opponent of president biden in an election year. biden can't run on anything else. everything has gone to nell a hand basket with him. the economy, inflation,

immigration, our foreign policy. so they want to take him out with lawfare. take trump out. if that doesn't succeed and i don't think it will. i think biden is pivoting to we are not even worried about persuasion. i don't think there is going to be presidential debates. can we get more ballots than trump. that's why they want to lock him down in these courtrooms, keep him off the campaign trail. keep him locked into these stupid and ridiculous lawsuits. and keep him tied up gears of the campaign. i will tell you, this pete's. looking at marquette poll from a couple weeks ago i think it's very clear what trump and republicans need to be doing over the next six months in the fails of this lawfare. biden was up among likely voters margin you get to register voters that aren't sure they are voting. trump is winning by 12. you get with unregistered people who love trump. is he up nearly 30 against biden. republicans should be in arm's race lawfare everything taking place. they need to get low propensity republicans battleground states

absentee. get them ready to vote. they do that enough voters they will win. >> got to find them. harvest legally better than the other side does. absolutely right, you mention the word take him out. and sometimes the democrats really do show their cards and they did again today that democrats release legislation today. that would remove a president but it's trump, that's what it is about. trump's secret service. if is he convicted of a felony, "the washington times" reports that congressman benny thompson says it's about making sure. is he worried that having to secret service detail could lead to accommodations. these are the people accuse trump of making it unsafe for judges and juries and family members and poll workers. but they are removing his security? that's what they would want to do? >> let's face it. there is an element of the left very much see trump unprotected quite frankly see him dead. this ask a stupid political stunt iq of a turnip.

bennie thompson knows is he a minority. have no chance of passing. but is he throwing a bone to the left to make it look like is he actually doing something. i really view this pete. obviously they are getting into the worst impulses but at the end of the day, it's a stupid. >> pete: bennie thompson chaired the january 6th hearings as well. choreographed tv show meant to show certain clips to make donald trump and his supporters look bad. >> correct. >> thank you your your time. appreciate it. israel just attacked iran. the white house is referring to tell americans what's happening. ♪

the reports at this time. >> pete: we know what the most important thing happening in the world is but we're going to choose not to comment. joining me now former u.s. ambassador at -- jim hanson special forces and chief editor confident idle east forum. gentlemen, thanks for being here. i want to start with you. is that what passes for american leadership on the brink of a wider war? >> the answer is we support israel's trite defend itself. a couple of days ago last week iran 300 missiles. 300 drones in israel. missile defense because israel was able to destroy 90 incoming. they just cleaned iran's clock. because iran wasn't able to touch israel. the response overnight was measured and restrained send a very clear message to and you

can't stop us. there this is a time for the united states to be patting israel on the back. spiking the football because that kind of message from jerusalem is going to help deter iran from picking fights that it can't win. no doubt. jim, i want to remind our viewers something that joe biden said on the campaign trail in 2020 about trump. watch. >> the world has changed because what trump has done and when the american independents and some republicans, know how bad he is. how he is getting close to getting us in a war. i said the walls close in on this man i'm worried is he going to get us into war in iran. unfortunately i may have been right. >> pete: or maybe you are the one that could get us in a war with iran. that didn't age well, did it jim? >> well, with biden nothing ages well. and this just quite

distinguished. foreign policy failures. i think the major problem right now the way the biden administration is dealing with iran is they are clinging to this delusion from back when he was partnering with obama to do capitulation as their foreign policy that they can bring iran back into the community of nations if they just treat them nicely enough. and that is never going to happen. you know, the idea doesn't mean to do these horrible things is insane. it's a feature, not a bug in the islamist system that they run. they are looking for armageddon and they are willing to do what it takes to get to it and we are all just playing along as if that's something we can change. >> pete: yeah, they have had that view. obama had that view because he had a fanciful view of the resolution and rejecting the shaw and colonialism and now stuck with iran almost having a bomb these ayatollahs. nathan, the white house did issue new sanctions on israel

though. they did announce that they are targeting steel -- excuse me against iran. targeting steel and drone companies as well as 16 individuals but not the nation's largest export, oil. so why do you think they would hold back on a real sanction and not do something that would actually deter iran? >> well, pete, these half measures are entirely symbolic. they are not going to do anything to constrain iran's ability to create mischief across the middle east. if you want to seriously constrain iran, you have got impose sanctions on their chief export. you have got to hit their energy sector. that's exactly what we did in the trump administration. but, fast-forward to the biden years, in the past three and a half years, past three years, iran has been able to sell over $100 billion worth of oil. now, that can buy a lot of bombs, a lot of drones, a lot of missiles, and it can be used to fund a lot of terrorist groups that threaten americans around the world. and that threaten israelis. and so like the fact that they are imposing sanctions on

drones, i mean, my jaw hit the floor when i heard that. because not too long ago, this white house had the chance to snap back u.n. sanctions on iran's drone program, but it was a swing and a miss. they just let that one go. so a half measure like this, when they actually had something in place that made it illegal for iran to sell drones, or to buy munitions from russia. that's the way to cripple iran. not these half measures. >> pete: not to mention if you sanction oil and supply goes down and price goes up in an election year and oh, joe doesn't want that right now. unfortunately, jim, we have got leave it right there and nathan, thank you very much. columbia university once again in crisis. anti-israel student protesters continue for a third day as anti-semitism runs rampant. will there be more arrests tonight? we have got an update from the ground, next.

we are telling everyone that the chicago blues of us the blues and we want everybody to put on their gym shoes, tied them up real tight because we are running to the right. we are done. we don't want to talk to them anymore, we have choices. >> have you seen this inside the black community insides chicago? you are wearing a big red hat. when they see that, how did they respond to that and what is the appetite for going right amongst the black community in chicago? >> they love it. everyone loves our hats. we wear fedoras with the feather on the side. everybody wants to come to the meeting. everybody is saying you've been trying to warn us for years, you were right, we are sorry. please accept our apologies and let us join your organization. i'm like it's for everybody. our goal is to get our people away from this cultural of liberal failure that's currently bankrupting our city and leaving americans behind. you have to remember that black

people, we've been in this country for a very long time. i'm in eighth generation american. we understand how our government works very well and i think that we figured out... and we don't want to look at his big ashy but anymore. >> not everyone seems to agree. watch this from the same meeting >> this migrant crisis is a resource crisis and we need vast resources to protect our new community members. 70 million... you can fight it as much as you want. these are our neighbours and part of our communities. immigrants are a basis for our future of the city ever since the beginning to now. immigrants are the lifeblood of the city and we need to support them. >> you are welcoming your new illegal neighbours. >> firstly that man doesn't represent us. those blue haired liberals are not our neighbours. they don't hang out with us, they have not been living in the city as long as we have and you

can hear that we open -- openly owe him. we wish they would speak a lot quieter. we are done again. they want to dominate the conversation. they believe that they are intellectually superior to us and that we are so pitiful that we need them to come defend us. we are saying we don't. leave us alone. leave us alone, we're not a pity party or a charity, we are proud americans and we want the best for our country and that does not include subsidizing illegal immigration that was brought to us via the cartel. absolutely not. >> you are a patriot. i love what you are saying and i hope you keep fighting. turn chicago read it, i would love to see that. thank you for your time tonight. >> before i go i want to also say to president trump, please come to chicago. you will get more love than you've ever had, eat better than you've ever eaten. >> thank you so much.

that's it for us tonight. before we go i'm honoured to share with you my new book the war on warriors on sale right now anywhere books are sold. starting with obama and underbite in, our pentagon has embraced gender equity, racial diversity, climate stupidity and the alphabet soup and recruiting pushes and training programs for our troops. this focus is dangerous and it is deadly. the military cannot be organized like a harvard fraternity catering to ever more obscure constituency. the book reveals the real leftist mission, to take over the last institution dominated by what they hate the most, strongmen, fighting men. 20 years ago i joined the army to destroy extremists. i fought in iraq and afghanistan. 20 years later that same army labelled me 1.

you don't believe me? in march of 2021 a leaked presentation from the pentagon asserted extreme members -- extremism is rampant in the military... patriots everywhere are finding out and the purges ongoing. i've written before about the takeover of education. this issue of the military and its takeover is just as pressing. we only have one pentagon, one secretary of defence and one army. if we lose it we are toast. 's book might be the most important and most controversial i've ever written. we name names and expose the truth and the depth of the leftist takeover. the war on warriors is available for preorder right now and we'll hit bookshelves june 4th. thank you for watching this special edition of the show. jesse watters primetime takes it from here. >> jesse: tonight...
