and john boehner takes a controversial step. declaring he will create a special committee to uncover the truth about the assault and the white house's fault. we'll have a live report, plus we'll hear from scott dejarls from the white house oversight committee. all that and former president george w. bush gets into gear for our nation's wounded warr r warrio warriors. but first, let's begin with the breaking news out of ukraine. at least 42 now killed in violence between pro government supporters and violence. it comes alongside one positive development. a group of observers are now free after being held captive for more than a week by pro russian militants in eastern ukraine. >> that is the only bit of good n news, the release of these military observers. it came about 24 hours after a negotiator from moscow showed up here on the scene. it does led credence to the thought that moscow is the puppeteer here in this insurgency that many will tell you is now putting ukraine on the brink of a civil war. not only the clashes, but the violence is spreading south and west from eastern ukraine to the key port city of odessa. take a look at the pictures from yesterday. running street battles between the pro ukrainian sporters that ended up with 30 plus people dead when fire was set to one of the key prorussian buildings that they had taken up arms in. what we have heard from the ukrainians is they have reason to believe they say that there was russian intelligence services or russian special forces behind that violence in odessa. certainly, the charges they have been leveling for many weeks now about what is happening in the east, including in the separatist stronghold where the pro russian separatists still have a very firm hold on that city despite a 24 hours old ukrai ukraine military offensive. they were able to move in and take a tv station in a nearby town. also, one government building that the separatists had occupied, but still, that main stronghold, the pro russian separatists still have a very stronghold on. it's important to look at this in the bigger picture of the geo political chess game going on involving moscow. they are calling this latest action by the ukrainian military quote unquote, a crime, and say they are getting thousands of calls from russian speakers and russian, those of russian orgin here in eastern ukraine, demanding help and protection from the russian government. no way to verify those claims, obviously, the fear among the west and certainly a lot of folks in ukraine, is that that answer for russia could come in the form of those 40,000 russian troops that have been on the ukrainian russian border going through military drills that president putin would finally give them the order to invade ukraine here. there's been talk of sending them in as peace keepers, also simply as an invasion force. >> thank you so much for that update. as the tensions continue. now, back in this country, and a story that has the white house playing defense this week with news that john boehner is appointing a special committeeg attack. this coming on the same day when darrell issa issued a subpoena to john kerry. we have more on what that may mean as this investigation gains new momentum. >> with john boehner announcing a special committee to investigate and a key panel -- john kerry to testify, the benghazi investigation is gaining steam. top republicans say those e-mails should have been released to congress months ago and boehner indicated that changed his mind about forming this committee. one republican said the fact these documents only came to light this week and not through the regular committee document request to the white house is deeply troublesome. >> the predicated line of thinking that was politically protecting the president and the state department instead of coming up with the facts about what is happening with benghazi. you have to remember, too, tucker, that the president is involved in this. he's talking about this video at the united nations. this is a smoking gun that's locked and loaded. >> by and large, the american public appears to agree with that assessment. a fox news poll shows that by a margin of 61 to 26%, voters believe the quhous is trying to cover up what happened in benghazi, rather than being open and transparent. those views are mostly unchangeded since last year. meanwhile, darrell issa is moving to request more testimony from john kerry on may 21st on whether there may be more documents that have not been turned over. >> i am confident that what the republicans allege, there there was some attempt by this administration to cover up or spin what happened is 100% false. >> there is risk in the gop strategy. their attempt could be toward. just this week, form general robert love testified he wish the state department would have down more. listen. >> in your opinion, what was the hold up? you testified earlier that the cia knew, the military knew. the state department knew. that this was a terrorist attack, yet somebody was holding this process back. who was it? >> i wish i knew, sir, from my perspective. it appears that state department was the conduit for the ask. >> and he joins us now. congressman, thank you so much for joining us. i know that there was some compelling testimony this week from that hearing. i'd like to know from you, what was the biggest take away from this hearing and do you think the new committee will be able to dig deep and get answers to questions like why the white house continues to say that the benghazi attacks were a response to a video and not a coordinated attack against our consulate? >> yeah, i think that they will have that opportunity. it was clear that documents were withheld and very important documents. i think it's almost 100% certain that the white house misled the american people before an election and you heard the general say the state department was a conduit for action. we had americans bleeding, waiting for help that never came and the general testified that he thinks he doesn't know whether or not we could have saved them, but the bottom line is that we should have tried. >> do you believe that the document revealed this week from david rose is really a smoking gun that shows political operatives working to create a political narrative that was at odds with the fact? >> well, there's no question within hours, they all knew this was a terrorist attack, but for some reason, they decided to move forward with this story about the youtube video and i don't think anything is really new right now, other than republicans arguing with republicans about how right they are. this is their story. they're sticking with it and they want to move forward. with this facade, if you will. what we need to do is get justice for the families of those who lost lives in benghazi and we need to get to the truth because this is a broader issue for america. this is like the irs targeting the conservatives who affect the outcome of the election. now, we have a situation where american lives are put at risk by a president more worried about saving his image than saving those americans in trouble. >> i want to ask you why we still haven't heard from those unnamed other witnesses who were at the tom pound during the attack. they have remained silent and the state department has not been forthcoming with a lot of information about that. do you hope that the committee is going to come forward with what happened? >> i think a lot of people want to come forward and talk. when gregory hicks came forward, it was a very difficult thing for him to do. the general, you could tell by the emotion on his face and his testimony, he doesn't want this to happen to other brave men and women. we're taught in the military to run towards danger, run towards the sound of a gun, but in this case, the white house and state department were keeping this from happening. it's unacceptable, sickening, really, that they would do this for political reasons. way it stands now, several different committees have been working on this and clearly, there's more evidence out there that was not turned over to it. for some reason, this administration has forgotten about the three branches of government, so we need to restore faith in the american people. they need a reason to trust in their government and for some reason, this administration that claimed to be the most transparent is probably the most s secretive. moving forward, this is unacceptable behavior. this is why it's so important that we get to the bottom of it. >> congressman, thanks so much for joining us with your insight and we'll keep posted with what develops. thank you. >> thank you. and now, we want to hear from you about these latest developments on benghazi. do you think a house select committee will be more effective than congress' effort so far to determine if the white house was involved in a cover up? tweet me your answers. and i will read some of those a little later on in this show. well, tonight, we invite you to join fox news for a special program that takes a closer look at these latest developments. benghazi, white house cover up revealed. special reports will take a look at the administration about who knew what and when they knew it and how the white house story is beginning to unravel. that's coming up tonight, 10:00 p.m. earn and will air again tomorrow at 9:00 p.m. now, to a big developing story that has many in the medical community concerneded about that mysterious middle east virus now making its way to the united states. the centers for disease control say the first confirmed case of mers or middle east respiratory syndrome, has now be found in indiana. nearly a quarter of people who have been diagnosed with this virus have died. at the moment, there is no vaccine or cure. welcome, doctor. great to have you here today. >> thank you. >> let's talk for a moment about how serious this threat is. i know that people have been watching this for some time and wondering whether it was going to reach the united states. it has. how concerned should we be at this point? >> i don't think we should be terribly concerned. it was inevitable that a case would appear in the united states. this is a global environment. with travel, the case in question was a man invariably reported as a health care worker who flew from saudi arabia and to london, then to chicago and then took a bus to munster, indiana. four days later, he appeared in the emergency room, admitted to the hospital, put under isolation because the diagnosis was made rapidly. very alert clinicians, knowing the rat the cdc has put out with regard to people coming from the middle east with fever and respiratory illness. and as i understand, at least according to the news reports, the patient is stable condition. the fact that it was recognized quickly, at least at the hospital, means that presumably was controlled and we won't have the problem that has occurred in the middle east of health care, other health care workers caring for the patient becoming ill. of course, i'm sorry. >> i was going to say that what has raised concerns though is the fact that of those that contracted this virus in the middle east, 30% of those folks have died. >> yes. the number keeps changing, but it was in the range that's currently being reported. most of the patients with the disease in the middle east have been, have had underlying diseases such as chronic kidney disease or diabetes and the like. and it is a serious illness, there's no doubt about that, if you get it. the potential for spread seems at this point to be low. which doesn't mean that it couldn't change. because if the virus mu tats to adapt to a greater extent to human beings, then it could spread dramatically. >> now, as i understand it, the cdc says the virus likely came from an animal like a camel and that it was spread that way, but it doesn't spread human to human contact you know, just at random, but the people that have been affected have been in situations where they were having family members living together. oh, i have to apologize to our viewers, we have lost our sig l signal. i apologize to the doctor on that. he was bringing us the concerns on the mers virus, there is one diagnosed case here in the united states and it is a serious virus, but one they're keeping close watch on. moving along now. it's hard to get a precise number, but anywhere from a few hundred to 2,000 people are dead or missing after multiple landslides in northeast afghanistan. the united nations puts the number of of dead up to at least 350 people, however, governors say it's much higher claiming as many as 2,000 people remain missing. rescuers rush to help those trapped victims. the second landslide hit burying many of those rescuers as well. the afghan government has not asked for assistance from nato or the united states yet. a u.n. spokesman says a memorial service will be held later today and the sight will be declared a mass grave. still ahead, ever since the attack on the american consulate in benghazi in 2012, former navy s.e.a.l. scott taylor has been pushing for answers. does he finally believe he's going to get some of those answers? and former secretary of state condoleezza rice making a decision about giving the commencement speech at rutgers university. we're going to tell you what she's saying now in light of protest. and another whistleblower describes what she calls an environment of intimidation at a va hospital in phoenix. a live report coming your way, next. >> any corruption within the department of the va system will have a direct effect on patient care, but because our mission is to provide health care services for the veterans. when jake and i first set out on our own, we ate anything. but in time you realize the bett you eat, the better you feel. these days we both eat smarter. and i give jake purina cat chow naturals. made with real chicken and salmon, anit's high in protein like aow cat's natural diet. and no added artificial flavors. we've come a long way. and whatever's ahead, we'll be there for each other. naturally. purina cat chow naturals. visit truecar.comoney,com,t and never overpay.yer's remorse. a good deal or not.

>> segregation. whites and blacks. minorities from black jews to light jews. >> do you think he should apologize? >> absolutely. >> do you think he will? >> only god knows. >> he told her he had a problem with her appearing in photos on the internet with black people. she said sterling is confused, traumatized, tormented, very alone and not supported by those around him. and she's added there are hours more recordings, this suspect the first time they've had a conversation like this. appare apparently, no apology from sterling so far. we're not sure when that's coming. apparently, he is wheeling quite bad badly from the ban on him and also the fine. the league owners we understand are now being urged to actually kick him out and give up his ownership of the clippers, that would take three quarters, or three fourth of the members in order to do that and we don't know the time whether there is a vote scheduled for that, but it is a drama that continues to unravel. >> thank you very much. a ript appears to be growing between multiple house committees tasks with investigating the benghazi attacks. house armed services chair is questioning the reliability of a witness who testified at that committee hearing earlier this week, defending his own committee's attempt to get to the bottom of the attack. the general has said that the u.s. military could an should have done more to help the americans killed at the consulate, but he says general robert leveille isn't privy to all of the information that was available to those on the chain of command. congressman frank is joining us now. thank you for joining us today. let's talk for a moment about the comments. what do you make of his remarks about the committee and how effective do you think this new committee will be in the long-term? >> well, i think it's important to keep in mind that chairman mckean and issa have two different jobs. i don't think he was questioning his -- he was simply wondering if he was in the position to have all of the information. on the other hand, i think general leveille kind of represents a general consensus within some of the military ranks, especially in this case. that this administration, civilian command structure, ignores reality to the extent that sometimes, it put it is military in a very bewildering position. the real scandal in this entire situation is that number one, the personnel on the ground there in benghazi begged this administration for additional security support. and they were ignored or refused. and secondarily, the president of the united states in this administration, blatantly lied to the american people about the genesis and whether or not to serve and protect. and they simply misled in the most fundamental ways, the american people. and i think that's the great scandal here is that this administration is willing to set aside the truth for the sake of its political viability and that's a tragedy. that is the opposite of statesman ship. >> when you talk about the security concerns, there are many people who wonder why in anticipation of the 9/11 anniversary, that why you wouldn't beef up security at american interests overseas, particularly at a time and region where terrorists are definitely out there ready to strike at u.s. interests. >> well, that's really the great question that should be asked by all of the media. the fact is there's no kulpaablety in our military command structure here. they were ready, willing and capable to defend the compound there and would have been able to do so had they had the cooperation. that's the tragedy here. they talk about whether the response came in time. well, the fact is, the response should have come days and weeks before the attack occurred because this is when our people had begs so desperately for help and i just can't express to you and i sit on the armed services committee, have for 12 years, it's very bewildering to me that this administration seems so willing to set aside our national security and even the protection of american lives, for the sake of political expediency. it is a frustrate that begs my ability to articulate on television. >> this week, we learned from an sbrer view that the president was not in the swaituation room when the attacks were happening at that moment, at that time, at least in his presence. what do you make of that? does that concern you that the president wasn't right on the scene in the hours after the attack? >> well, it does and it even goes beyond that. i think on the 6th of september, the president was going on the television and berating mr. romney for his dangerous or lack of foreign policy capability and then the following day, he was campaigning, the following day he was campaigning, the follow ing day he was campaigning and on the day of the event, he was not in the situation room this and then of course the next day, he was. yes, that concerns me greatly because the administration tries to put forth this notion that they're on top of everything and i will tell you, if there's anything that's out of balance in washington, d.c., it is the competency ratio compared to the breathtaking arrogance ratio of this administration. they seem to be out of touch with reality. >> thank you so much for joining us. we are out of time, but it's good to check in with you. >> thank you. coming up, a team of former special ops and intelligence guys are part of the core of americans also demanding answers about benghazi. up next, we're going to ask a navy s.e.a.l. if he's heard enough and george bush putting in the miles this weekend. 60 of them in fact. he is riding for a great cause and dr. mark siegel is with him as well. we're going to have a live report coming your way in just a few moments. stay with us. .yea dulcolax tablets can cause cramps but not phillips. it has magnesium and works more naturally than stimulant laxatives. for gentle cramp free relief of occasional constipation that works! mmm mmm live the regular life. welcome back, everybody. it's only the beginning, that's how a group of former s.e.a.l.s describes -- on some serious unanswered questions about the benghazi tragedy. scott taylor has been pushing hard for it ever since the attack. great to have you here today. >> great to be with you. thank you for having me. >> i know that this is something you have waited for and do you think this new select committee has the muscle to really find the answers you and so many others are asking? >> well, let me first say that i'm proud of folks in my organization as well as congressman frank wolf who's led the effort in congress and then also literally thousands of americans who have helped us and pushed for this for almost two years now, so we're very happy and applaud speaker boehner for making the decision to form this committee. a good man and i know he's working hard on this as well, but the fact that we have five committees that are disjointed, we need to have one that really looks into everything and gets folks like hillary clinton, who is at the center of this thing before, during and after, so that she can answer questions and if not voluntarily, then a subpoena. we need to have one committee that looks at everything, that is lineded with professionals, qualified members and the legal, military and intelligence worlds, so they can ask the questions we need so that we can hold folks accountable and find out the truth. >> among the questions remain, who briefed susan rice? we still don't know who did t t that, whether it was the white house or state department. you think this committee can get that answered? >> i absolutely do. i mean, let's put it this way. it is the responsibility of the obama administration that we now have this select committee that's being formed because of their actions, but more importantly, their inactions and not being forthcoming with information and documents and photos like they did on the bin laden raid. you saw all kinds of photos and documents and everything just spewing out of the white house, but nothing with this. it's been like pulling teeth, so i think when we have a cohesive, select committee, they'll be able to pull out the information with the threat of subpoena, with the threat of the law to make sure we get these answers. we need to have things that are more than just talking points. we need to know where the president was that night, where hillary clinton was that night. why was there not even attempts by the military because the military we've heard testify, excuse me, we've heard testimony by senior levels in the military saying they were waiting for state to give them the go ahead. we've also had cabinet officials say they knew about the problems in benghazi. we need hillary clinton to explain that. >> you know, the question i was talking to franks about, we don't know why the government did nothing to prepare for any type of attack on the anniversary of 9/11, which is a day of course that one would automatically assume that you would have more security in this region, where a terrorist would like to strike american interests. >> absolutely. it is a fact we knew there were problems before, during and after and we need to have folks like secretary clinton come in and testify either under the threat of subpoena or voluntarily, so tell us why and why things weren't done before, during and after. >> do you think though on a political note, that the emphasis on what's happening with benghazi, with the gop taking the charge, that this could end up backfiring on the gop in some ways because perhaps the spotlight will not go on other issues like immigration? >> uma, just like the president and the administration should not have worried about political ramification and they should have been answering the call and getting into the fight, i don't care about political problems. this is an american issue. you had brave men like ty and glenn who ran to the fight to save scores of americans that night. it is in their honor and the ambassador's honor that we should not care about politic. that we should be going to the fight. we should be finding the answers and make sure that something like this never happens again, so quite frankly, i don't care about political ramifications. this is the right thing to do. getting in the fight, saving american lives under fire. that's what we do as americans. >> now, we cannot forget we have four people who were killed and they are heroes indeed and let's hope we get some real answers now. thank you very much for joining us. >> thank you. fox news coverage of the story has been and will continue to be relentless until we know exactly what happened in benghazi. we have a special, fox news is reporting on the incident. a close look at the administration's explanations about who knew what and when. it airs here on fox news at 10:00 p.m. eastern. 16 of our active duty wounded veterans are on a 100 kilometer bike ride through the texas hill country and joining them, one of our former presidents. we're going to tell you what this event is all about. coming up next, stay with us.
