EVERY NIGHT, REMEMBER AMERICA NOW AND FOREVER AND "GUTFELD!" IS NEXT. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> Greg: WHAT A SHOW, HAPPY WEDNESDAY. HERE HE IS GETTING FOOD FROM THE SAME PLACE HE GETS HIS CLOTHES. [LAUGHTER] THE ONLY THING WORSE IS WHEN HE'S NOT WEARING ANY. AND I KNOW. THE JUDGE HAS JOINED US. JUST MADE IT HERE IN TIME, HERE SHE IS ARRIVING AT THE STUDIO. [TIRES SCREECHING] WHEN WE SAY HERE COMES THE JUDGE, IT'S A WARNING. SADLY WE HAVE SOME BREAKING NEWS, OUR 11:00 P.M. COMPETITION OVER AT MSNBC IS QUITTING. STOP IT! SAD TIME, JUDGE. AFTER BEING REGULARLY SHELLACKED BY THIS JUGGERNAUT OF A SHOW, BRIAN WILLIAMS ANNOUNCED HE GOT TIRED OF LOSING AND ANNOUNCED HE'S LEAVING THE NETWORK. THE MORE YOU CLAP, THE LESS I TALK. WHO KNEW HE WAS STILL EMPLOYED? LET'S BE HONEST, HE'S NOT LEAVING WITHOUT RACKING UP SOME KEY ACHIEVEMENTS. HE WAS KNOWN TO FABRICATE STUFF BUT IN THE WRITING WORLD IT'S KNOWN AS POETIC LICENSE. IN THE NEWS WORLD IT'S KNOWN AS BEING A DISHONEST SACK OF [BLEEP]. HIM HE HAD QUITE THE RESUME ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HEAR IT FROM HIM. >> I HAD AN ILLUSTRIOUS CAREER, VOTED "PEOPLE" MAGAZINE'S SEXIEST MAN ALIVE FROM 1980 TO 1990, ALL WHILE LEADING THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS TO FOUR STRAIGHT SUPER BOWLS. I COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT MY WIFE ANGELINA JOLIE AND MY OTHER WIFE, CLEOPATRA. WHO I MARRIED IN A SECRET SEANCE IN THE LOST CITY OF ATLANTIS. I'LL FINISH MY MEMOIRS WHICH WILL FOCUS ON MY DISCOVERY OF THE POLIO VACCINE AND THE CHARITY WORK READING ORPHANS INSIDE A VOLCANO I MADE OUT OF PILLOWS. GOOD NIGHT, GOOD LUCK. BY THE WAY, EDWARD R. MURROW STOLE THAT FROM ME. >> Greg: AS YOU KNOW THERE'S A TRIAL GOING ON FOR KYLE RITTENHOUSE AND IT SEEMS TO BE COLLAPSING LIKE BRIAN STELTER AFTER DOING TWO JUMPING JACKS. A QUICK RECAP, IT BEGAN WITH THE POLICE SHOOTING OF A PILOT KNIFE WIELDING FELON IN KENOSHA, WISCONSIN, FOLLOWING THREE DAYS OF RIOTS AND PROPERTY DESTRUCTION OR WHAT'S HE AND I WOULD CALL PEACEFUL PROTEST, HE TRAVELED TO KENOSHA ARMED WITH A RIFLE PUBLICLY STATING HIS MISSION WAS TO PROTECT BUSINESSES AND VICTIMS. IN THE ENSUING MELEE HE SHOT AND KILLED TWO PEOPLE AND WOUNDED A THIRD PART OF THE STATE OF WISCONSIN ALLEGES HE'S A MURDERER, HIS DEFENDERS AND ANYBODY WITH AN IQ OVER 15 DESCRIBE IT AS A SELF-DEFENSE. IF YOU LISTEN TO THE CLUELESS PROSECUTION, THEY ARE PROVING IT WAS SELF-DEFENSE TOO. I HAVEN'T SEEN SOMEONE THIS INEPT IN COURT SINCE MICHAEL AVENATTI. LEGAL EXPERT POINTS OUT A VIDEO FROM THE SCENE, MURDER REMAINS AN IMPOSSIBLE CHARGE TO PROVE. I HAVEN'T WATCHED THE SHOW, BUT LET'S SEE HOW THE MEDIA PORTRAYS RITTENHOUSE. >> KYLE RITTENHOUSE, THE 17-YEAR-OLD VIGILANTE. >> KYLE RITTENHOUSE OF VIGILANTE. >> THE ARMED TEENAGE VIGILANTE. HE'S BASICALLY WHAT YOU WOULD'VE HAD AS ANY SCHOOL SHOOTER, HE WAS GOING OUT TO SHOOT PEOPLE. >> RUNNING AROUND SHOOTING AND KILLING PROTESTERS. >> A 17-YEAR-OLD VIGILANTE ARGUABLY A DOMESTIC TERRORIST. A WHITE FROM SUPPORTING -- >> HE WAS RADICALIZED BY TRUMP IS, TOOK HIS AR-15 TO KENOSHA AND BECAME A KILLER. >> Greg: IT'S AMAZING HOW THEY CAN SOUND EXACTLY THE SAME BUT UNIQUELY STUPID IN THEIR OWN WAY, ESPECIALLY THAT LAST GUY, THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH HIM. IF I DIDN'T KNOW ANY BETTER I WOULD THINK THEY WERE ALL ACTORS WORKING FROM THE SAME SCRIPT, ONE WHEN THEY STARTED WITH THE ENDING AND CHANGED EVERY OTHER WORD TO RACIST, MORE PREDICTABLE THAN A THREES COMPANY MARATHON. HERE'S SOMETHING FROM MY FAVORITE CNN LEGAL ANALYST. >> WHAT KIND OF IDIOT 17-YEAR-OLD GETS A GIANT GUN AND GOES TO A RIOT, HE HAS NO LICENSE, HE HAS NO TRAINING, HE THINKS HE'S GOING TO SCRUB GRAFFITI OFF WITH HIS AR-15? STUPIDITY OF THIS. WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? A LOT WENT WRONG. >> Greg: THAT'S A KICK. YOU HAVE TO BE MORE RESPONSIBLE BEFORE YOU WHIP SOMETHING OUT. HE SHOULD KNOW IF YOU POINT SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE IS A CHANCE IT WILL GO OFF. MEANWHILE, "ABC NEWS" SUMMARY FOCUSED ON THE LONE SURVIVOR OF RITTENHOUSE'S ACTIONS LIKE HE WAS SOME NAVY SEAL HUNTED BY THE TALIBAN RATHER THAN PURSUING RITTENHOUSE. IT WAS A GREAT NARRATIVE UNTIL YOU GET TO THE LAST FEW GRAPHS OF ABCs COVERAGE AND YOU FIND THIS. >> IT WASN'T UNTIL YOU POINTED YOUR GUN AT HIM, ADVANCED ON HIM THAT HE FIRED. >> CORRECT. >> Greg: THE GUY WOUNDED BY RITTENHOUSE ADMITS HE WAS POINTING HIS GUN AT RITTENHOUSE WHEN HE WAS SHOT. THAT'S NO TINY DETAIL. IF SOMEONE WALKS TOWARDS ME WITH A GUN DRAWN IT'S EITHER A THREAT OR I HAVE WANDERED INTO DANA PERINO'S YARD. LOOK AT THE PROSECUTORS WHEN THE STORY DIDN'T GO AS PLANNED, THE SAME REACTION MY DOCTOR HAS WHEN I REMOVE MY PANTS. THIS TRIAL BLEW UP IN THEIR FACES LIKE ANTIFA PIPE BOMB. FORGET THE LAUGHABLE PROSECUTION, WHAT'S CONCERNING IS HOW THE MEDIA PORTRAYS THE ACTUAL FACTS. THEY LIED ABOUT HAVING A GUN, THEN ADMITS HE POINTED A LOADED GUN AT RITTENHOUSE -- GAUGE, WHICH IS A BAD NAME IN THE FIREARMS CASE -- IT'S LIKE BEING NAMED ALEC BALDWIN -- TURNED OUT TO BE A TERRIBLE WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION BUT THAT'S ON THE MEDIA'S COVERING IT BACK OUT THEM IT'S NOT SELF DEFENSE AT ALL, IT'S GOT TO BE MURDER, OPEN AND SHUT. THEY ARE AS CROOKED AS IN AUNTIE ANNE'S PRETZEL WITH SCOLIOSIS. RITTENHOUSE IS FOUND NOT GUILTY, HOW WILL THE ACTIVIST CLASS REACT? HOME DEPOT'S MIGHT HAVE A RUN ON PLYWOOD FOR SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS. IT'S ALMOST AS IF THE MEDIA WANTS TO PRIME THE WRITERS TO THINK RITTENHOUSE GOT AWAY WITH MURDER AND WHY? IT KEEPS THEM FROM EVER ADMITTING THEY ARE WRONG, THEY RUN FROM FACTS LIKE HUNTER BIDEN RUNS FOR A BABY MAMA BUT IT GUARANTEES MORE VIOLENCE WHICH THEY SEE AS RESTORATIVE JUSTICE AND RATINGS TOO. BRIAN WILLIAMS PICKED THE WRONG TIME TO RETIRE. IT WAS THE MEDIA'S EMBRACE OF THE RIOTS WHILE CONDEMNING THE POLICE THAT LED TO MORE UNBRIDLED VIOLENCE. WHEN THERE IS NO LAW ENFORCEMENT, WHO FEELS THAT GAP? I'LL GIVE YOU A HINT IT'S NOT SOCIAL WORKERS OR MENTAL HEALTH EXPERTS, IT'S PEOPLE LIKE KYLE RITTENHOUSE. IT WAS THE MEDIA'S EMBOLDENING OF CRIMINALITY THEY DEEMED NECESSARY TO PUNISH OUR EVIL, RACIST SOCIETY AND COWARDLY POLITICIANS RESPONDED WITH POLICIES THAT SPONSORED THIS UNSAFE WORLD. WHY WOULDN'T SOME CITIZENS A STEP UP TO PROTECT OTHERS? WHO ELSE IF NOT YOU? RITTENHOUSE AND OTHERS LIKE HIM. WHEN YOU LEAVE PEOPLE WITH NO OPTIONS, THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO GET. MAY BE RITTENHOUSE ACTED IN SELF-DEFENSE BUT HOW DID THE MEDIA ACT? THEY ARE NOT ON TRIAL BUT IF THEY WERE IT WOULD TAKE A JURY T OF GUILTY. LET'S WELCOME TONIGHT'S GUESTS! SHE BOUGHT AN ENCYCLOPEDIA JUST TO THROW AT PEOPLE. HOST OF JUDGE JEANINE, JUDGE JEANINE PIRRO! MORE BUBBLY THAN A BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE SHAKING IN A PAINT MIXER, FOX BUSINESS CORRESPONDENT SUSAN LI! HE'S GOT SOMETHING TO SAY AND IT'S PROBABLY I DIDN'T BATHE TODAY, MICHAEL LAWSON. HER CAT IS TIRED OF CLEANING HER LITTER BOX, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR KAT TIMPF! I MEANT TO SAY YOU BROUGHT AN ENCYCLOPEDIA BECAUSE YOU LIKE THROWING THE BOOK AT PEOPLE BUT IT CAME OUT OF MY MOUTH GARBLED MUCH LIKE THE PROSECUTOR, WHAT DID YOU MAKE OF THE PROSECUTOR TODAY? >> THE PROSECUTOR WAS SO DAMAGED BY RITTENHOUSE TAKING THE STAND AND THE PROSECUTOR WAS IN FACT DAMAGED BEFORE EVEN TOOK THE STAND BECAUSE THE MAIN PROSECUTION WITNESS, UNDERSTAND TWO PEOPLE ARE DEAD, ONE PERSON WAS SHOT AT AND INJURED BY RITTENHOUSE WHO SAID I HAD A LOADED GUN AND I WAS ACTUALLY GOING TOWARDS KYLE WHICH IS A CLASSIC SCENARIO WHERE YOU ACTUALLY SAY I'M ENTITLED TO USE DEADLY PHYSICAL FORCE WENT DEADLY PHYSICAL FORCE IS CONFRONTING ME. IT'S A CASE WITH THE D.A. INDICTED THIS KID 48 HOURS AFTER THE CRIME. THAT MEANS THEY DID NO INVESTIGATION. THIS IS IN THE AFTERMATH OF GEORGE FLOYD, IT'S IN THE AFTERMATH OF JACOB BLAKE SHOOTING. IT'S IN THE MIDDLE OF A RIOTS, WHEN THE POLICE ARE STANDING DOWN AND YOU HAVE THIS KID THE POLICE EXPLORER, HE'S TRYING TO DO SOME GOOD THINGS. >> Greg: I TELL PEOPLE I AM A CPR INSTRUCTOR BUT I'VE NEVER TAKEN THE COURSE. >> AND YOU PRACTICE IT ON THEM? >> Greg: I DO IT WHEN I CAN, I'M NOT PICKY. SUSAN GOOD TO SEE YOU, HOW ARE YOU DOING? >> YOU NEVER PRACTICE CPR ON ME, THAT GOD. >> Greg: NOT THAT YOU'RE AWARE OF. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. HAVE YOU BEEN WATCHING THIS? THE PROSECUTION IS TRYING TO SAY HE HAD NO RIGHT TO SELF-DEFENSE EVEN THOUGH HE WAS BEATEN WITH A SKATEBOARD, HE HAD A GUN POINTED AT HIM AND THE PROSECUTOR ACTUALLY SAID THEY NEVER SHOT YOU. YOU HAVE TO BE SHOT IN ORDER TO FIGHT BACK. >> ALL TRUE, HE SHOULDN'T BE TRANSPORTING FIREARMS ACROSS STATE LINES, HE SHOULDN'T OF BEEN THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE BUT I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT. ALL THIS LAWLESSNESS AND CHAOS MOTIVATES VIGILANTES LIKE KYLE RITTENHOUSE, WHAT WAS HE SUPPOSED TO DO? >> Greg: I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS, GOING ACROSS STATE LINES IT SOUNDS LIKE HE TOOK AMTRAK BUT IT'S WHERE HE WORKS, IT'S WHERE HIS DAD LIVES, IT'S CLOSE. >> HE WAS THERE EVERY DAY, THAT'S WHERE HE WORKS. >> Greg: I'M THINKING OKAY IF I WERE 17 AND I REALIZED MY CITY WAS GOING TO HELL AND I WAS A GOOD KID TRYING TO DO GOOD THINGS. >> KNOW YOU WOULD NOT, ABSOLUTELY NOT, YOU DON'T LIKE GOING OUT IN PUBLIC, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GO AS A CHILD AND GET AN AR-15. THAT'S GOOD. OBVIOUSLY THIS WAS SELF-DEFENSE IT WAS RIDICULOUS TO SAY IT'S ANYTHING BUT SELF-DEFENSE YOU CAN ALSO SAY BEING A 17-YEAR-OLD KID, SCHOOL IS OUT I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING ON TUESDAY. I'M GOING TO GO GET AN AR-15 AR5 [BLEEP]. I'M NOT A MOM BUT I WOULD NOT WANT MY KID PLAYING WITH THAT KID TO. >> Greg: IF MY KID HAD AN AR-15 -- I'LL BUY YOU SOME CHICK-FIL-A, WILL NOT WATCH BAYWATCH. >> THAT DOESN'T MEAN HE'S A MURDERER. >> Greg: IF HE WAS TRULY EARNEST AND BELIEVED HE WAS TRYING TO HELP PEOPLE, RIGHT? >> I DON'T THINK HE HAS TO BE A HERO IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE SELF-DEFENSE. I THINK THAT'S AN IMPORTANT POINT. >> Greg: SO MANY VOICES IN YOUR HEAD TELLING YOU -- >> THE CONSTITUTION IS THERE FOR A REASON, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AN UPSTANDING PERSON IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO DEFEND YOURSELF AGAINST SOMEBODY THAT IS LITERALLY IN THE ACT OF TRYING TO SHOOT YOU. >> Greg: THAT'S A GOOD POINT. GOOD TO SEE YOU STOPPED BY GOODWILL ON THE WAY OVER HERE. >> I'M GETTING THE DEALS. I'M LIKE A SEAL IN A DUMPSTER UP IN THIS BITCH. >> Greg: YEAR ENCLOSE A TRANSIENT COULD HAVE WORN. >> AFTER THE TRANSIENTS ARE DONE WITH THEM. >> ALL THE CLOTHES YOU WEAR BELONG TO PEOPLE NO LONGER LIVING. >> AND IT THROWS THE SEARCH DOGS OFF, EVERYBODY WINS. >> Greg: WHAT'S YOUR TAKE ON THIS? >> I LOVE THIS KID COME OF THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THOSE LAWLESSNESS. CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE, WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE POLICE STEPPING UP AND EVERYBODY IS WATCHING THINGS BURN, CITIZENS AREN'T GOING TO STEP FORWARD? >> Greg: AT THE LAST REFUGE, THE SECOND AMENDMENT. >> SHAME ON THE FBI, THEY HAD FOOTAGE THAT EXONERATED THIS KID THEY MYSTERIOUSLY FOUND. >> THAT IS THE POINT OF WHAT THEY ARE DOING WHEN YOU POLITICIZE THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM, WHEN YOU DON'T EVEN WANT TO FIND OUT WHAT THE FACTS ARE, WHAT THE EVIDENCE IS SO YOU CAN INDICT THIS PERSON AND EVERYONE ON THE LEFT IS SAYING HE'S A MEMBER OF THE MILITIA, HE'S NOT A VIGILANTE, WE GOT HIM ON VIDEO HE'S ACTUALLY CLEANING CURSE WORDS ON A WALL AND THEY SAW VIDEO OF HIM. HE HAD BODY ARMOR WHEN HE GOT TO A POLICE FORCE AND HE GAVE IT TO HIS FRIEND. HE DIDN'T GO THERE TO KILL ANYBODY. >> THE FBI COULD COME FORWARD WITH THAT VIDEO QUICKER! TO BUSY TRACKING DOWN PARENTS AT A PTA MEETING? >> THEY SAID HE WAS A DOMESTIC TERRORIST SOAP THEY'RE BOTH DOMESTIC TERRORISTS. >> THAT IS A TOUGH GIG RIGHT NOW YOU'RE AN OPERATOR AT THE FBI. WHAT YOU GOT, FENTANYL, PLEASE HOLD. WE HAVE A MISSING DIARY FROM A VITAMIN GIRL, SEND EVERYONE. >> I WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S IN THAT DIARY. I BET THERE'S SOME DREAM JOURNALING. SOMETHING ABOUT A KID IN CHEMISTRY CLASS, ADMITTED THAT STUFF. WHERE MY GOING? I SHOULD PROBABLY GO TO A COMMERCIAL. >> I LIKE IT WHEN YOU NARRATE YOUR OWN
