then to the state of ohio, house speaker john boehner defeating two tea party challengers in his bid for a 13th charm in congress. the u.s. is now joining the manhunt for the leader of a nigerian terror group behind the kidnapping of more than 270 young girls. the u.s. is sending military intelligence and law enforcement support to nigeria to assist in the hunting down of theç leader of boko haram and to help free the girls. this as we just learned that eight more girls have been kidnapped. last year the state department offered a $7 million reward for the warlords who have plans to sell those girls into slavery. an investigation is underway at this hour to try to figure out who is threatening republican congressman trey gowdy from south carolina.
gowdy got e-mails after being tapped to lead a select committee to investigate an attack on benghazi. the e-mails threatened to hurt him if he goes forwardç with those hearings. those hearings certainly are going forward this morning. fox news just confirming that the 12-member panel will include seven republicans and five democrats. we'll keep watching this story carefully. oklahoma city thunder superstar kevin durant is now the nba's most valuable player. listen to this moving acceptance speech and his real shout out to his mom. >> you made us believe. you kept us off the streets, put clothes on our back, food on the table. when you didn't eat, you made sure we ate. you went to sleep hungry. you sacrificed for us. you're the real mvp.
speech. those are your headlines. a perfect prelude to mother's day this sunday. don't forget. >> that's this sunday? i mean that's this sunday! >> of course you knew that. >> of course i knew it. thank you very much, heather. tomorrow "vanity fair" officially is going to be publishing, after ten years she's broken her silence. monica lewinsky. it will be on "vanity fair's" website tomorrow. "the new york post" has some ofç the excerpts. she writes it is time to burn the beret and burn the blue dress. >> in a preview she talks about being suicidal at times and wanting to reach out to somebody going through something of a similar fashion. she says this about how hillary called her a
narcissistic loony tune. "yes, i get it hillary clinton wanted it on record that she was lashing out at her husband's mistress. she may have blamed her husband for being inappropriate but i find her impulse to lash out at me troubling." >> she thinks it's all about timing. she'sç saying it's a lot about timing, let's clear the decks to get ready for 2016. >> take a listen to this great debate. >> i don't think this is actually relevant as we go forward into 2016 because it has no bearing on the ability of hillary clinton to be a national leader and whether she can lead our nation. >> any time monica lewinsky is in the news, it does not help either of the clintons. it brings back all sorts of bad memories, you know, certainly of the president's bad behavior. >> i really wonder if this
isn't an effort on the clintons' part to get that story out ofç the way. would "vanity fair" publish anything about monica lewinsky that hillary clinton didn't want in"vanity fair"? >> i haven't seen the whole article but from the excerpt i see, i don't think hillary looks great. she might be saying i've got to say something because i think i've turned a corner of my life. >> she is saying get it out now and america will chew on it for two years and by the time the campaign rolls around, yeah, we've already talked about that. what's curious is she's quite adamant, monica lewinsky stresses this was her, having sex with the president, was consensual. not like he forced her on it. she makes it very clear it was consensual. she says the only time sheç was abused was by his
cronies, the people who scapegoated her. >> she does mention she does feel taken advantage of. so if this is indeed on the part of the clintons to get this out of the way, this could be the second time she has been used by the clintons in the white house. let us know what you think about this. who does it help? does it help monica? does it help hillary? does it not help either one? let us know on facebook. >> you should call barbara walters. she got the interview. >> i called her thisç morning. barbara, i know you're up. i spent a lot of time with her, so i'd be curious. >> coming up straight ahead. >> a new rule banning parents from spanking their children in certain areas when they misbehave. we'll tell you where that is. there is a new rule on the books. we're going to explain. >> protesters refuse to let condoleezza rice speak at rutgers university, but something big just came out of that. it's big.

people know we would love to have condoleezza rice. she's welcome at texas tech and the love of texas. this is a great role model for students. she grew up in the segregated south. she overcame a lot of things. she became provost at stanford, became secretary of state. i think she would be an excellent speaker. >> when you're looking at criteria of a speaker, you look for accomplishment. you don't necessarily need to agree with her policies? >> don't have to agree with their policies or their ideas. we want someone that's been highly successful in some area, and we've had all kinds of speakers. president obama's secretary of the navy, governor ray mabus did an outstanding job. we've had former secretary of state james baker. we've had scott pelly, one%of ym angle, one of our distinguished alums. he's with fox news.
and ed whitaker, c.e.o. of at&t. >> does it disturb you when a group of students seemingly led by professors organize a push-back. what does it say about the university system? >> it's not good. here's what's happened. on the left, a lot of people are for free speech as long as they agree with it. they're notd3uju free speech -- they want to stifle it if they don't agree with it. we're in the idea of business. any time you try to stifle free speech, you're going against the liberty and justice and freedom that this kupt was built on -- this country was built on. >> aren't they exercising free speech by speaking out against her experience? >> there are ways they can do that. they can petition the administration and ask someone be allowed to speak at the next commencement that has ideas that are different from condoleezza rice. they could do that. they could show up in front
of the building with placards. there are ways that one can do that. but you shouldn't be in a situation where they try to stifle it to keep them away or they threaten to make so much noise and yell that no one can hear the speaker. >> i want toç you hear condoleezza rice, what she posted on facebook. commencement should be a time of joyous celebration for graduates and their families. rutgers invitation for me to speak has become a distraction for the university at a special time. it is not because of the push back she has decideed to speak. it is because of this. universities have become so liberal they stifle people that don't necessarily agree with them. and a professor is so great,ç kids will start agreeing with that to get
long. >> you've got to look at free speech any time something comes up. the key is there are those on the left that want to stifle free speech and they want to stop free speech for the people they disagree with. we're in the idea business. if there is anyone that should be in the idea business, it's universities. we should be stressing that we want all people of all persuasions to be able to speak out. and i think it's just -- it's bad. it's happened throughout the country. and some places a person would get up to speak and the students would yell them down so they couldn't speak. there's a lack of civility in that and there's also an element in that that's against free speech of thoseç that they disagree with. >> not at texas tech and that's why you're here this morning. chancellor, condoleezza rice's office got your letter. they thank you and they'll consider it. thanks for talking about it today on this very special

>> i think that is 80 degrees below zero. a fifth grader admonishes a fifth grader for reading the bible. listen to the message to his parents. >> he has religious books in the classroom. he's not permitted to read those books in my classroom. >> joining us is fifth grader giovani rubeo along with his dad paul. >> i understand,ç paul, in april -- let me back up. giovani, you got the bible as a gift from your church around christmastime? >> yes. >> why did you decide you wanted to read the bible during your free time? >> i love reading the bibl'm ald it. >> apparently the school had given you some trouble in the past. paul, you went in to the
principal, talked to the principal, i believe in april, is that right, and got a letter that said he can read it during free time? >> i had spoke to them numerous times. in march they told him to put it away a coupleç of times, and he came home and said dad, they're telling me to put away my bible and i told him they can't do that. >> a couple of days ago, giovani, your teacher says you've got to put that away and you don't. then what did you ask her to do? >> i asked her to call my father. >> and she called your dad and said that you couldn't -- that -- go ahead. why do you think she said you had to put your bible away? >> because she didn't want me reading it. >> paul, why is it that teacher didn't want your son reading his bible during free reading time? >> that, i can't answer. it seemed they were very hostile about the whole
thing. i found that the voice message kind of speaks for itself.j4(p&c@ >> well, it does. i understand none of the other students were queried what they were reading at the time. so let's bring in the attorney right now, jeremy dice. jeremy, what's going on here? why do you think the school's got a problem with the bible? >> it's a hard question to answer. but what we do know is that students across america are permitted to read their bible while they're at school especially during free time in free reading periods like this. the bible is not contra band and shouldn't be treated as such. for a teacher to single out a student during free reading time is an egregious violatiof nf the constitution. >> absolutely. we've got a statement from the school board. they say broward county public schools respects and upholds the rights of students to bring personal religious materials to school, including the bible, and to read these before school, after school or during any free reading time during the school day. giovani, one of the things
is, i read in the local news stories down there in florida that apparently the school said that that was not a free reading time. you were supposed to be reading some other assigned book. is that right? >> no. that's not right at all. >> it was definitely free reading. paul, you had received word that during free reading time it would be okay for your son to read his bible? >> yes, i have received that. >> okay. so what do you want from the school? >> right now all we want is a written apology. if you made a mistake, be diligent enoughç to admit it, and everybody can move on and just allow my son and all the children in the entire school district to have that freedom to read their bible if they choose to do so during free reading time. >> jeremy, that's fair; right? >> i would think so. for the largest school district in the united states to be able to walk across the street and say we're sorry our teacher tried to remove the bible during a free reading period, i don't think that's a tall order to ask.
students in america are permitted to read their bible while they're at school. >> giovani is no longer in that teacher's classroom. he has been moved toç another one as he concludes the year. >> giovani, paul, jeremy, thank you for joining us. what do you think about that? why did that particular teacher crack down on that particular book, the bible? go ahead and send us an e-mail, friends@foxnews.com. you can facebook us or tweet us. next up on the rundown, he oversaw the agency accused of leaving our veterans to die on a secret waiting list. should the head of the v.a. step down? not so fast. the white house has a different idea. they want to keep him. parents, how do you punish your children when they're misbehaving? now there is a school on the books in at least one place that says you don't get to decide. first happy birthday to lone survivor actor alexander. he is 22.

children's mercy hospital.ç a policy that says you cannot use any sort of spanking. if they see it happening, they will bring in a representative from child services to deal with it, giving alternatives such as bubbles and coloring to make the situation simmer. >> it's not even a ban on spanking. it's a ban on any sort of, let's see, hitting of any kind. and the goal of the hospital is if they see something escalating they're going to try to defuse it because they don't want it to lead anything else. if a staff member sees something escalating, get the kid a coloring book or bubbles. if somebody gives their kid a spafrpg or something like -- a spank or something like that, sounds like they're going to call in a social worker. a lot of people say we're not spankers. there are a lot of people in this world who discipline theirç children with a spank. >> they don't define it as hitting. here they blend the two
together. they say no hitting. they're bringing them in together in terms of discipline. on one hand, anybody who has had a kid in the hospital understands it is a stressful time. it is the point where you feel the least amount of control over a situation. for one more access to the ability to control a situation in your family is hard for those parents out there right now and have that taken away. but if things are escalated, it could get tense in a hospital. >> so this kansas city,ç missouri, mercy hospital says we looked at these studies and it said you basically raise bullies if you start spanking kids. are they taking the parent out of parenting? are they going to a place they don't belong? or is this hospital doing something that is necessary on behalf of what they think for the child? >> are they trying to create peace or trying to take your rights away? >> sure. some families do spank. if you've got somebody in the hospital and suddenly you've got to deal with the social worker because you
gave your kid a whack on the butt, that doesn't make it any easier. >> they say if it leaves a mark. they're not going to decide if it's over the line unless it leaves a mark. >> they're going to be looking at this. is it a distraction to the overall health and well-being to kids in the hospital? let us know what you think. facebook or twitter. >> it is 24 minutes before the top of theç hour. heather nauert. >> speaking of spanking, there may be a little bit of a political spanking in washington. the house of representatives now inching closer to charging former i.r.s. official lois lerner with contempt. there is a meeting to be held today to consider that as well as a g.o.p. request for a special prosecutor to investigate the targeting scandal. >> the way this looks, you know, it looks so political, a political process, pure and simple, aimed at trying to appeal toç the political base.

god bless planned parenthood and my wife and i are very involved in the pro-life movement. my kids know that we're involved in the pro-life movement. they know what it means. they know what the president standsç for. so i didn't want to confuse my kids. i wanted to send them the right message. >> a strong message indeed there. talk about the seven choices. that being the first step there. what are some others people can take away from this today in the book? >> i think if a person understands his or her identity, the next question is what is your purpose? this has to do with passion, whether it's at work or your vocation. the next person is what kind of person do you want to be? a person of character establishes depend ability. to become a trustworthy person we need to ask what kind of a person do i want to be? it progress s from there. >> coaches, c.e.o.'s, this is reaching a broad audience. one high school golf coach

the terrorist group behind the kidnapping of more than 270 girls there. the u.s. is sending military intelligence and law enforcement support to nigeria to help with the hunt for the leader in an attempt to free the girls. this as we learn eight more girls have been kidnapped in the last 24 hours. the warlord says he plans to sell those girls into slavery. we'll keep you posted. condoleeza rice getting an offer this morning to speak at texas tech university after she turned down rutgers invitation amid all those protests there. the chancellor of that school joined us earlier on the show. he said it shouldn't be about politics, but about the person's credentials. listen to this. >> we're in the idea business. if there is anyone that should be in the idea business, it's universities. we should be stressing that we want all people of all persuasions to be able to speak out. >> rice is said to be considering that offer. we'll let you know what happens.
listen to this one, every parent needs to hear this. a father shows up at a school board meeting to express his concerns with a risque novel that's required reading for his 14-year-old daughter and here is what happened. >> what are you charging me with? >> disorderly conduct. >> disorderly conduct. >> taken away in handcuffs. here is what happened. he went over the two minutes of that allowed for him to address the school board in new hampshire and so he was arrested and taken away. the center of the controversy is a book called "19 minutes." it's by jody picall. there is a love scene in it that is too graphic for ninth graders. listen. >> it reads like a transcript for a triple x porno movie. we had no notice about it. >> school officials say they are standing by that book. they say it's been part of the curriculum since 2007.
they'll update their policies, but listen to this one, instead of being able to opt out of controversial material, including this one, parents have to be forced to sign off on them. so it's still part of required reading. nothing changed there. >> i got to send something home to the parents. >> you're hearing from people on this, right? >> yeah. a lot of you are weighing in. wayne tweeted us this, he says his fry dom of speech was violated. very sad that parents aren't allowed to voice their concerns about improper books. >> that's right. susan tweeting this: they allotted him two minutes? he could have expressed his outrage in that time. no infringement on free speech. >> sean says, officer, how about arresting the teacher who hands this out and teaches it? check out how helpful to the students. >> yep. keep e-mailing us regarding it. you can fake book us or you could tweet us as well. meanwhile, today you're going to discover that monica lewinsky is back. she's written an article in
vanity fair. the whole thing comes out tomorrow. we do have some excerpts, which it's curious, she makes it very, very clear that the times she had sex with then president of the united states, bill clinton, it was consentual. it was between consenting adults. he didn't force himself on her. didn't abuse her. the only people who abused her were his cronies, it sounds like, when she was made the scapegoat and was all to protect the clintons. >> right. that way she felt taken advantage of and also suicidal. she reveals during the height of the scandal, actually prompting her to write and actually get some word out here in the vanity fair article and help others who may be feeling like a victim going through something like this. >> i really feel bad for her. she points out to what happens at rutgers with the 18-year-old who felt humiliation. she said she felt same to that in the same fashion as she turns 40. shear an excerpts from the article which has not been fully released yet. she said my first thought as i
was getting up to spied, that's the worst thing she said about me, i should be lucky. yes, i get it. hillary clinton wanted it on the record that she was lashing out at her husband's mistress. she may have faulted her husband for being inappropriate, but i find her impulse to blame the woman and herself troubleing. >> and things that we know from her then friend in the 1990s said hillary referred to monica lewinsky as that narcistic looney toon. what's curious is why is vanity fair publishing this right now? we've got one theory from lynn cheney, you're about to hear, and also we've got a republican strategist and a democratic strategist because the timing is curious, don't you think? we haven't heard of monica lewinsky out of the blue 'til now. why? listen to this. >> i don't think this is actually relevant as we go
forward into 2016 because it really has no bearing on the abilities of hillary clinton to be a national leader and whether she can lead our nation. >> any time monica lewinsky is in the news, it does not help either of the clintons. it brings back all sorts of bad memories, certainly of the president's bad behavior. >> i really wonder if this isn't an effort on the clintons' part to get that story out of the way. would vanity fair publish anything about monica lewinsky that hillary clinton didn't want in vanity fair? >> probably not. my question is, is vanity fair going to do something with broderick or gennifer flowers or paula jones? if they're doing, so to speak, monica lewinsky -- if you google mistresses of bill clinton, there is a shocking number of people who come up. >> the timing of this is certainly coming under question. we're going to have the opportunity to talk with lynn cheney in a bit here on the show.
we asked you what you thought in the meantime and barbara is saying this: monica may be the only honest person in a sad situation. we know the clintons aren't truthful. >> theresa posted on facebook, hillary stayed with bill for her own agenda to once again occupy the white house. >> and ralph's up and he says what difference does it make? you're funny. >> mark saying it's all good until a republican does it, then all hell breaks loose. >> yeah, there is a little bit of a double standard. continue to e-mail us, tweet us and facebook us. >> she was over -- wasn't she at oxford? she got a degree at oxford in london. >> she did. but she said she had a difficult time finding jobs after. moments of being stressed. >> she says it's time to burn the beret and bury the blue dress. >> okay. >> none of this would have happened if that blue dress disappeared, or she had gone to the cleaners. >> 7:11. >> you're right.

he is being tapped to lead an investigation into the benghazi attacks. congressman trey gowdy in south carolina getting death threats. that's just the start? joining us is congressman devon nunez and members of the house select committee on intelligence who joins us from d.c good morning to you. >> great to be back on with you. >> it's great to have you. a couple of days ago, democrats were saying, no, no, no. nobody should show up. suddenly yesterday, nancy pelosi said, well, we'll show up if it can be half and half. which is funny because when she was running things, it was nine democrats versus six republicans. what sort of recipe are you guys looking at? >> it's going to be seven republicans and five democrats, steve. the point that you make is right. this congress has a long history of these investigative committees. we attempted to do it through the existing structure with the four committees of jurisdiction, but as you know, we've been stonewalled by the administration, so much so that the legislative branch of our government was unable to get the e-mails that you guys in the
press were able to get. that's totally unacceptable and i think it broke basically john boehner did the right thing by coming out strongly and putting one of our great new members of congress, trey gowdy, who will do a great job as chairman. >> as we look in, you're in the thick of things in washington, d.c., it does look like stonewalling, in addition to the fact they would send you guys documents that were completely blank because they had been completely redacted where you couldn't even tell where it was about, which is kind of nuts. they've also made it impossible for to you talk to the people who were there. it sounds like -- from what we've heard some of you guys talk about -- these guys have been threatened with their jobs. if you say anything, there goes your pension. we might sue you. will witnesses be able to testify in fronts of your committee? >> yeah. i think that's the important point, too, is we're going to have good witnesses like greg hicks, who was the number one man, after ambassador stevens
was murdered in cold blood by al-qaeda terrorists, greg hicks was the man in charge. greg hicks has been put out to pasture by this administration. he's been said that he's not a credible witness. but i think what we're going to find through this investigation is that guys like greg hicks, who were on the ground, the station chief that was there in libya working for the c.i.a., all of those people are going to be extremely credible. if we can ever get the rest of the e-mails out of the administration, we're going to find out -- we're going to get to the bottom of what really happened in benghazi and who made up these most ridiculous stories. >> the white house goes well, we had you, congress, you've had a bunch of investigations, plus there was that arb, accountability review board, they looked at things. but the arb talked to greg hicks, to your point, and he told them that the reason chris stevens was in benghazi was because hillary clinton personally asked him to see whether or not they could establish a permanent post there. that's what he told the arb.
but the arb, when they finally released the report, it said chris stevens wound up in benghazi independently, which is crazy. that's a flat out lie! >> yeah. we haven't gotten to the bottom yet of what was chris stevens actually doing there. he did meet with people that day. i think that's something that the committee should look into, who exactly did he meet with. i think the committee should trio meet with those folks, or at least have investigators meet with those folks. there is still a lot of information out here. i don't blame anyone but the white house. the american people should blame no one but the white house. they had an opportunity and they have a responsibility as leaders in this country to provide the legislative branch of government all of the documentation when the legislative branch asks. they did not do it and they get what they deserve on this. >> well, to a lot of people, it looks like there was a conspiracy and a cover-up and a lot of people would like the answers and it's up to you guys now. all right.

achieved all those goals, my wife, my family, my career was back to where i wanted it to be. it just felt like time to write this book. >> what was the toughest part to write about? >> the toughest part to write about was the accident and my recovery from that accident. i suffered a lot more catastrophic injuries than i had ever really talked about. >> you were in the hospital for three months? >> three months i was in the hospital. i suffered three skull fractures in the accident. skull fractures, 7, 8, 9 in my lifetime and class 3 concussion. i could barely talk when i was in the hospital. my cognitive thought capabilities had been lost completely. i couldn't remember anything. so i had to relearn how to speak and how to think and how to memorize things. they had to take my eyeball out and rebuild part of my skull here. this whole side of my face wouldn't work for a long time.

the calls of the nigerian people to bring back our girls has been heard around the world. now the united states has said it will sean team of u.s. military and law enforcement to the region to assist with negotiations. but who is this terror group? what is it that they believe in exactly? joining us is fox news legal analyst, peter johnson, jr. >> 300 young women held captive by these folks. it's important to understand who this terrorist organization is. in 2013, the united states declared it a terror organization. its leader, they espouse hatred for everything modern, secular and western. they especially oppose education for women. so they've become known for these attacks on schools, including burning schools, holding people hostage, suicide bombs, and attacks. >> this is their leader that is pictured right there. >> yeah. and he suspect out a series of videos saying that allah ordered him to do this.
that's interesting because they do have ties to al-qaeda, the terrorist organization we know so well. they've received training from al-qaeda and shakal declared his allegiance to al-qaeda in the past. there is no firm evidence that they intend to take their efforts beyond the four countries in africa that they've been involved with. >> who are their targets that we know of? >> their targets are schools, government officials, christians, christian churches, nigerian security and police forces. they're known most famously for december 2011 bombing of a cathedral in nigeria. in fact, last year i met a nigerian bishop who told me that priests were so terrified in that country that they needed to change christmas midnight mass to early in the afternoon to 4:00 o'clock in the afternoon because they were afraid that the parishioners would be kidnapped and murdered in the middle of the night on christmas
morning. and it's taken a terrible, terrible toll. 1500 people have died this year alone. thousands have died in the last few years. now america and the world, including great britain, are saying, we need to get involved in this. the hashtag has taken hold and foreign policy is following this saying, what can we do to save these children? it's an absolute heart break. >> the president spoke out as well. he actually called it, quote, heart breaking and outrageous. so what exactly precisely can be done? >> it's interesting. in some ways it's ignored this situation in nigeria for a while. there's a $7 million bounty on the leader's head. now the white house is sending a team of military officials, negotiators, intelligence officials and law enforcement personnel to see what they can do to bring these children back, to return them to their parents. can you imagine at any school in america to have almost 300
children snatched and then parents literally chasing these terrorists with bows and arrows against their ak 47s? they're afraid of reprisals. they don't want their names out there. unfortunately, the nigerian government has been absolutely powerless in reapproximatelying this kind of attack -- repelling this kind of attack. they've been known -- they've not repelled these attacks and they continue. in fact, eight other children abducted yesterday. and bombings continue. >> heart breaking to hear that. glad at least something is being done in this area. peter johnson, jr., we thank you for always keeping us up to date. >> america again the policemen of the world. >> we will follow this story for you. prayers for them. coming up, his career didn't end when he walked away from baseball. nolan ryan now cooking up a storm. his simple recipe for burgs that won't strike out. in 1975, "he don't like you like

states, it was consentual. he didn't force himself on me. the only time i was abused was by his cronies who tried to scapegoat me. >> you know, when i first came to fox, bill o'reilly said that fox audience would never accept me because i was bill clinton's prime defender during my cnbc days. i have a source, the reason i could report with great accuracy about what was happening is that the president's best friend, whom i have sworn never to name, would call me on a nightly basis with the story du jour. >> how many does he have? >> well, if you sort through, you could probably figure it out. there was an amazing shift within the dynamic of the pro-clinton forces during the arc of the story. monica lewinsky is absolutely right, as i recall, as the story was evolving right before my
very eyes there, that there was a lot of she's nut job, she's a loose cannon. she's a crazy -- >> it's her faults. >> basically she came on to him. she pursued him. then if you'll recall, i was the one who broke the story that the stain on the blue dress was indeed president clinton's dna. so i was able to report that. the story changed dramatically as that revelation was reported to me and i passed it on to the american people. then it was much more about all men lie about having affairs, oral sex is not real sex. then the story became not monica. monica was now in every way affirmed. now became the minimummization of what the offense was. >> why do you think she's coming out? >> that's good question. i don't necessarily agree with lynn cheney. great to see her again in the
green room. i don't necessarily agree that hillary clinton is behind the timing of this. put yourself in monica lewinsky's shoes. i don't know where the hell she has been for these many years. >> why bother? why do it now? >> you know, let's take her at her word. the 18-year-old rutgers student who jumped off the bridge in front of my house, that she was motivated because she similarly -- >> felt humiliation he felt. >> and she wants to do self-destroy as he did. >> will it play in 2016 for hillary? will this matter that she's coming out now? >> i think it meters who the republican nominee is. i think a senator rand paul has made very clear, elisabeth, that he considers the president's character and the actions of his spouse during this traumatic period in american history to be relevant to the 2016 election as it refers to the clark of the family -- character of the family. if it's rand paul, that's one
thing. if it's jeb bush or mitt romney again -- >> i actually see a woman that's turning 40 that wants to make sense out of what happened to her. >> i think that's very profound. you just turned 50. i 70. >> can i throw a curve ball in here? could women, could the clintons or hillary clinton maybe assume that there would be a bunch of women who feel like she does and maybe this would relate to them? could this bode well for her if she was on the ticket? >> well, all i know is that she got tremendous support from the women's movement and monica lewinsky points out with great bitterness, if you read even the excerptses, the limited excerpts, how feminists deserted her and blamed it all on her, the intern, after all, and the suffering spouse. >> why were they ever defending her? >> why weren't they? that's an excellent question.
i think the woman's movement really has to assess its own performance during that trauma. >> we're going to listen to you on the radio? >> i'm going to radio right now. i got my radio voice on now. >> we're going to be talking to lynn cheney. her take on it. she's coming up in a couple of minutes. geraldo, thanks very much for dropping by. >> didn't expect so. >> thank you very much. >> 52 minutes now. >> right. >> keep the cameras away from the man. heather, what's in the headlines? >> let's start with political news. while you were sleeping, there have been major political developments that will affect the midterm election. let's start in north carolina. republican tom tillis winning the gop senate nomination. he will now face democratic senator kay hagin in november. also north carolina, the congressional primary race between two democrats, clay aiken and keith chrisco is still considered too close to call. we'll let you know what happens

>> i don't blame anyone but the white house. the american people should blame no one but the white house. they had an opportunity and they have a responsibility as leaders in this country to provide the legislative branch of government all of the documentation when the legislative branch asks. they did not do it and they get what they deserve on this. >> today we expect to learn more about who will be on that committee. a fifth grader in florida says he was simply humiliated by his teacher. he was reading the bible during free time at school, but listen to this voice mail that his teacher left for his parents. >> i noticed that he has books, a religious book in the classroom. he's not permitsed to read those books in my classroom. >> those books. 12-year-old boy says his bible is one of his favorite books. he and his father joined us, along with their attorney, emergency roomier on "fox & friends." listen to what they had to say. >> all we want is a written
apology. if you made a mistake, be diligent enough to admit it and everybody can move on and just allow my son and all the children in the entire school district to have that freedom to read their bible if they choose to do so. >> the broward county public school district says it upholds the right of students to bring religious materials to school. what do you think about that? those are your headlines. back to you. >> thank you very much. i'm looking in the e-mail box. many happy birthdays. >> very nice. i appreciate it. it was great to see geraldo again. >> great, with clothes on. 11 minutes after the top of the hour. coming up, rutgers university paid $30,000 to bring in snooki from "jersey shore." but let a speech by condoleeza rice slip away because of a few protesters from faculty and students. now the former secretary of state has a new offer. >> and she refuses to talk. now democrats say enough is enough when it comes to questioning lois lerner. >> maybe we can get ken starr starr to come out of retirement.

>> sure. put it out now. a couple years in advance, and then by the time people go to vote, they'll be oh, that's old news. vanity fair is going to do this. do you think they're going to do something with paul paula jones or gennifer flowers? >> no. i think that, you know -- i have a great empathy, sympathy for monica lewinsky and i do think she's been suffering. but i'm sure if you were able to sort it all out, vanity fair probably reached out to her and the article came about that way. >> so let's talk about why you're here. not only to see steve and elisabeth on the couch. >> and wish awe happy birthday. >> but talking about james madison. what is underappreciated and what needs to be revisitd about this founding father? >> his accomplishments were such great height and scope and depth, father of the constitution, crucial to the founding of the first government. president when the country went
to war for the first time under the constitution. so all of that, plus a really interesting life story. there is one story that occurred to me when you asked me about monica lewinsky. dolly madison was the subject of whispering campaigns. she was just a little too attractive. >> really? >> yeah. >> attracted for him? >> no. but too attractive to not attract this kind of notice. and she at one point was said to be having an affair with x. and y, a friend of the madisons, stood up and defended her in an embarrassing way. so madison, went to x's house, the person rumored to be having an affair with dolly. personally invitessed him to dinner. it was a very clever move because what it said to everyone is the secretary of state had gone over there, invited the fellow to dinner. he came to dinner on f street. he wasn't having an affair with dolly madison. i think it's useful and you know this. even when you're looking at past
times, to always be aware that there is another scenario playing out. >> the past is prolog. >> it seems like those -- what would he say today about the president's role? >> well, he'd be appalled by the scope and reach of the federal government. but i think he would also be very troubled that the president seems to decide for himself what the law should be. we won't enforce immigration laws even though they are on the books. they've been passed by the congress. we'll delay mandates and requirements under the affordable care act, even though that's no prerogative of the president. so i think he would be troubled at the constitution having become not the rule of law, but the rule of -- >> it's also important in your book, you chronicle anybody who thinks america is in hard times and never been so bad, how about a president standing, sitting by himself in a horse in the

the fox reporter, rosen. >> well, this morning the fox reporter rosen responds to that stunning admission by our top law officer. >> can't wait to meet that rosen guy. and the husband of a democratic candidate caught red handed. >> those aren't your signs. >> there's no -- >> there's no what. >> there's no name on this sign. >> yes there are. right here. property of the republican party. >> the rest of that tape and the name on those signs straight ahead because mornings are better with friends. unless you're that guy. >> hey, you're watching fox and friends. bam! boom! >> welcome aboard folks live in studio e. it's fox and friends. we got anna with us. >> good morning everybody. >> glad to have you. we have enough enemies in this
world. it's amazing how we're talking about our friends. you would think we would save verbiage like this for our enemies. according to a senior obama administration benjamin netanyahu is chicken blank. you talk about tensions between our best ally maybe on the planet but in the middle east where does that come from? >> it's so extraordinary that that sort of talk goes on at the white house and you have to wonder who exactly said that. the white house couldn't possibly like that unless they feel like that. jen had an exchange at the department of state with a reporter about you are going to apologize aren't you. >> you don't feel a need for an apology because this was said by an anonymous official rather than let's say the vice president saying something about turkey or saudi arabia in which he makes a phone call to apologize for. >> well, obviously every
circumstance is different. i have been clear and the secretary will be clear when he speaks to netanyahu next that that doesn't represent our views. >> she says it would be a waste of time to figure out who said this and to apologize. it doesn't make any sense. the other piece that struck me from the piece by goldberg was the biggest frustration and the biggest person the white house is frustrated with is benjamin netanyahu. it's not kim jong un or vladimir putin. how do they spin it? you spat with the people that you love the most. >> i think that it's very clear to everyone that the united states and israel are key allies. they are, you know, bond together in the middle east and so the frustration i think you're sensing steve is why isn't the administration more angry at the north koreans or the russias et cetera, but it's when you have a close friend or
a husband or lover that you're frustrated with them that you see this kind of out cry. >> i get it and that's fine if you didn't read the last article but they go into detail about all the problems we have with our loved one. he's a small timer that's the pay your of jerusalem that doesn't have the guts to bomb iran even though we begged him not to a couple of years ago. >> the part about that is the juicy part. we talked netanyahu out of taking out iran. he followed our orders and now he's a chicken bleep? clearly the administration knows who said this. in fact, there's a real good possibility that our president said this about mr. netanyahu. >> i mean, come on if my lover called me a chicken you know what, that would be the last time in the barnyard. i'll tell you that right now. but are we showing our true colors about how we feel about benjamin netanyahu in israel.
remember this in 2008. he said i cannot bear netanyahu he's a liar and obama said you're fed up with him but i have to deal with him more often than you. >> there's a lot of ways you can describe benjamin netanyahu but as a guy that's chicken or not aggressive or a coward, did you see what just happened over the last six months. have you seen in the past what he has done? he's cracking down almost too hard. i thought that's why the world was so upset with him. >> they're not going to apologize and the white house does know who said it but what is interesting is if they were upset they would go after the leaker. they would try to figure out who exactly leaked that to the atlantic. we're going to talk a little bit shortly about how eric holder was asked about some regrets but ed henry is also talking about the whole thing of aren't you going to try to get to the bottom of this and he too, not very curious.
look. >> why then are you kind of fluffing off this idea that you kind of don't care who leaked that story -- that not might have but insulted the prime minister of israel. you have gone after reporters again and again in this administration to find out who leaked information to them and when it comes to insulting the prime minister you don't seem to care who leaked it. >> again i don't think that's an accurate reflection of the administration's policy. it's not an accurate reflection of our views. >> hasn't this department gone after all series of reporters. >> no, and they have put in measures to ensure that journalists in this country are able to do their job. >> so you don't seem curious because that's not how we feel however one thing is clear the defense minister came to this country to meet with our secretary of state and he was not able to get an appointment. i guess secretary of state kerry was all booked up. >> one of the reporters they're
talking about are james rosen. turns out holder regrets that subpoena and here's how james rosen responds to all of this. the attorney general's latest comments about my case like his previous remarks scarcely address the relevant facts of his conduct. >> in this case they don't have to go after the reporter because they know who said it to the reporter probably and they probably feel like that anyway. the thing that eric holder did say though i think i could have been a little more careful looking at the language in the filing regarding james rosen and when you take a look at what was in the language the fbi claimed that rosen had perhaps opened the law. he was either an aider or abettor or coconspiritor and they grabbed his e-mail a couple of years after and suddenly people are saying you can't do
that. unfortunately during this administration, not so much. >> we just want journalists to be able to do their jobs. how about when you start going after their parents. remember that? >> james's parents in staten island. >> yeah, they have always been a problem in this country. >> yes eric holder. >> a lot of people have been complaining about his parents. it's good they cracked down on them from the white house. >> it's good he has regrets. >> i don't have regrets tossing it over. >> i have a show down to tell you about taking place in maine this hour. police troopers in front of her house. we're talking about the nurse that treated ebola patients in west africa. she is now thumbing her nose at officials there that want her quarentineed. her civil rights are being violated since she tested negative for the disease. she defied that by stepping outside of her home to speak to officials. state officials are looking to
get a court order to force her to stay inside. >> while you were sleeping the husband of a democratic state senator was wide awake at this hour that he was busted stealing republican campaign signs at 4:00 in the morning. police are releasing an arrest warrant. >> those aren't your signs bud. >> there's no -- >> there's no what. >> there is no name on these signs. >> yes they are. look right here. property of the republican party. >> we got you brother. we got your license plate, your face and everything. >> oh my gosh. what is it high school or something? >> well, long faces a year in prison and a $2300 fine despite his denial. >> it may be just a preview of the presidential election. former florida governor jeb bush taking a swipe at hilary clinton that said that businesses don't create jobs. >> this last week i saw something that was breathtaking,
a former secretary of state that was campaigning in massachusetts where she said that don't let them tell you that businesses create jobs. >> well bush says economic growth creates companies and that leads to more jobs. >> and the giants winning the third world series in just five seasons. >> popped up. sandoval, in foul territory, giants win. >> wow, the final score, 3-2. >> thousands packing the streets after the game. but before it was the opera singer that stole the show. ♪ and the home of the brave

23 of the fortune 500 ceos are women. but for basically a houseware store like the container store having a vast majority of our leadership as women is great. we love men too. we have great men leaders as well. >> i love your store. you have things i've never seen before. it's easy to go in there and go down each and every aisle. one of the interesting things is you are like a lot of other businesses able to pay your employees about double the minimum wage. we have a graphic here and you also do something with your employees. that is you really train them how to be in the store. that way you don't just hire somebody and say put on an apron. they know everything about your business. >> nothing worse than working at a retail store trying to help customers when you aren't well trained or you don't know what the products are about. the only reason a corporation
exists is to maximize the return of the shareholder. and we're like okay the best way to do that is hire great people, train them well, pay them well and they will take better care of your customers than anybody else and if your employees are exstatic and shareholders will be as well. our philosophy is one great person can easily do the business productive of three people and customers and fellow employees and the company all thrive by having great people well trained and well paid and look forward to coming to work in the morning. >> and they'll stick with you when your making nearly double what the national average is. you guys play your employees on average $50,000 as opposed to the national average of less than $24,000. also something interesting is you and your wife work together. you say it works great for you and it's almost like the way people used to work on farms 200 years ago. >> well it's unusual today.

these people is a good idea i'm going to pull the plug on you. >> when you report the news, when you report the reality the people in charge want to shut you down. >> he didn't let up did he? this morning even more fall out. >> oh, boy.
hi everybody. 23 minute afs the hour.
stories making headlines at this hour your tax dollars paying for the health care of foreign diplomats. it's legal thanks to an obamacare loophole. according to health and human services if diplomats have the right visa they are eligible and russian jets and bombers spotted where they're not supposed to be across europe. what they're calling unusual incidents. u.s. officials believe it's just a show of power by putin. >> all right, they're responsible for some of the greatest military achievements in our history but overseas they face challenges at home like transitioning to regular civilian life. scott news helped raise more than $1 million for these heros. they face the very same transition for himself. scott, so glad you're up early. i knew that wouldn't be an
issue. first off for people outside that associate with green berets the movies, what do you do? >> we specialize in unconventional warfare. we go into places behind the scenes and create stability and defense and diplomacy. >> you go to the eye of the storm. so out of the entire army, 1% get to be green berets and it takes two years to train you guys. >> it does. there's 6500 green berets and we're around the world doing the country's business. >> if you have a job that that's intense and rewarding that shows immediate gratification especially fighting for a country how could you possibly match that in the civilian world. when you're home you're just like everybody else. >> you still have the skills. we were all selected for a reason. we're can do.
we're positive thinkers. we can go into situations and sort them out. those are the kind of people that american businesses would love to have. >> i agree with you but do you realize that when you come home? how do we transition you from the face paint world to our world? >> we have a process called the next bridge line. we have green beret and business mentors that take you and repurpose you and make you adapt to the civilian world just like the combat situation. >> so you get google and say get that linked in profile going. get your resume going. start making contacts. this is how you present yourself and this is what you do. living with insurgence might not be what morgan stanley needs. he was honored at the dinner i was privileged to be at. here's what he said about what you guys do. >> when president kennedy helped form the green berets they knew they would be needed.
the values and principles that make you go into harm's way willingly are great american traits. the people in this room particularly the green berets have my greatest respect because they're prepared to risk everything for an idea and that idea is called america. >> what do you think? >> it was a great speech. his wife spoke as well. part of behind the green beret is a great wife and family that supports them as well. we want to participate in america too. we want to come home and be great americans. >> and some of you getting pink slips in battle right now aren't you? >> i think so. the draw down in the military. this lust just to come down to a normal size is effecting everybody and we've had several green beret officers get pink slips in the battlefield. >> it's so unacceptable it's beyond words. how can we get involved?
>> see us at green beret foundation org. and all the money go to support the green berets and their families. >> thank you so much. great to see you in person. coming up straight ahead they're in the country illegally and casting ballots at the polls. crash test dummies are packing on pounds. can you believe it? first happy birthday to ivanka trump. she's 33 and so much smarter than me.

yeah it's all about the photograph. it's your shot of the morning. the president of the united states that hates photo ops, addressing the nation about ebola along side health care workers and doctors still in the incubation period. they could still potentially still present ebola symptoms but i would imagine before they went into that room at the white house they probably all got a temperature check. >> you would hope they had some type of screening. i had somebody tweet me the other day, we're asking who should be in charge of the guidelines? the white house, the military, the governors. i had somebody tweet me that said if they're so comfortable let them spend the night at the white house. i don't think they're going to
be spending the night. >> it was amazing to see him so angry yesterday. we're just careful. if you have a kid and someone just came back within 20 days of dealing with ebola patients. have my 25-year-old give him a hug. no, wait 21 days. you have to be sure. we all just watched this. it's not being fearful. it's just being smart. and we'll talk about this in more detail in 25 minutes but it's democratic governors and mayors. >> look at the state of california. they instituted a 21 day ebola period. you come back from west africa, you have been in contact with people you have so sit in your house 21 days, three weeks. 27 minutes before the top of the hour. >> have other news to bring you right now. you know the rookie cop you told you about attacked by a terrorist swinging a hatchet in new york city, he's now out of the hospital this morning. he faces weeks of physical therapy before he's able to go
back on the beat. he and three other cops were attacked last week by a man with ties to islamic extremist happening at a subway stop in new york city and he was cheered on by so many fellow officers as he got out of the hospital. welcome home. >> well, they are calling it the smoking gun. stunning evidence that illegal immigrants are voting in the state of maryland. four people from frederick county are now suing the state. they want a judge to intervene before tuesday's election. the group says that thousands that stated they were not u.s. citizens tried to get out of jury duty but they went ahead and voted in elections since 2006. >> this is massive voter fraud. ththis is a national story. this is the smoking gun. we have formal documentation never been done before. >> well, republicans says this makes a strong case for a voter i.d. law in that state. he'll push for one in the section session. remember the chaos at the keen

contact with the public. >> right now a police car is sitting outside her house. so do they have the right, the state, to arrest her if she leaves? let's talk to the judge. judge, the thing about this woman that freaked people out was when she came to newark airport. they did that scanner thing. she had a 101 reading on that device and later tested negative for ebola but was on her radar. >> that's why she was released from a tent in the parking lot in the downtown newark. >> but that's why she was confined to the tent because she had a 101 temperature. >> accept that's an insufficient basis to confine someone under the law. the presumption of liberty. we're all presumed to be free in america. she does not have to prove that she is not contagious. rather the state has to prove that she is contagious. now she may have some
professional obligation consistent with maine haw as a licensed health care professional to comply with professional guidelines but as an american citizen she cannot be confined against her will unless and until a judge decides that, in fact, she is contagious. >> under the 10th amendment don't states have the right to protect the welfare and safety and health of the people. >> yes they do. that's the area of the constitution that says all the powers that the states gave the federal government that's all we gave and the rest we retain. traditionally health, safety, wealth or informal ration is retained by the state. >> but they feel it's within the safety of the state to have her confined. >> that's subject to everything in the constitution that says you're presumed free. the burden is on the state to show it. if they want to test her blood to see if she's carrying the disease. they can do that against her will but they would still have to demonstrate to a judge with
her lawyers there resisting this demonstration that, in fact, she's contagious. she cannot be quarantinedbecausd in africa. she cannot be quarantined because she has a fever or they think or feel she is contagious. >> the way i remember the 10th amendment, all of that stuff, my daughter the law school student sent me a bunch of stuff regarding this. >> wait a minute, you went to your daughter to double check my research. >> no, i wanted to have the counter argument. >> i'm happy to be challenged. >> my daughter told me if the states want to enforce this they can't be oppressive about it.
she is staying in a house so they confine her to that it would be reasonable. >> what would be oppressive and unreasonable is to confine her without any evidence. confine her just on the basis of where she had been. again, the exception to this is if she agreed as a nurse, licensed in maine, to comply with certain maine-generated guidelines for health care workers and if those guidelines say you should self-quarantine they can do that but they have to prove she is in fact contagious. >> this is just going to keep going on and on and on. >> and she's clear. she wants to leave the house today. >> god bless her. >> he is written about the legal fall out of ebola at washington times.com. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> what do you think about the nurse? is she being selfish or just defending her rights? e-mail us and send us a message on facebook or twitter and we'll read them in about ten minutes.

a new breed of terror could pose the biggest threat the united states has ever seen. it's called cyber terror and an attack would wreak havoc on banks, expose classified government information and put american lives in danger. so are we prepared here at home? here to explain is kurt the cyber guy. good morning. >> good to see you. we're not prepared. and i think this country should be very concerned about the level of cyber security and how firm our borders as it relates to -- i think we talk about isis and the fear that they actually have an attack op u.s. soil, set that aside because the bigger threat is a cyber attack from anywhere in the world back on u.s. soil. let me talk about one example
that is already happened. we turned a blind eye to it. but we need o wake up to this. the office of homeland security has a contractor that in august admitted to the fact that they had been hacked. this is the company, the defense contractor that is responsible for vetting every one of the government employees who work for the office of homeland security, especially those officers and border protection, the officers at tsa officers, and 20,000 records of these people, including their home address, their families' names, their past history is out on the open. >> all exposed? >> what do we do? >> we see that and go that's just terrible. but let's do the math here. you're a mexican drug lord making billions of dollars trafficking drugs around the world and your biggest problem has been getting across the border in the southern part of the u.s. across texas. well, what would you pay as a mexican drug lord how many millions of dollars would you pay for access to those agents'
personal details? if i were up with of those agents, i would feel betrayed by the u.s. government at this very moment, especially by this contractor and it's just sloppy and must stop. >> the next idea you have for us is hackers wanting to gain control of banks. is this something that is happening -- >> jpmorgan chase is the big one we talked about so far the last couple of months. they've already spent now $3 billion towards security. then they've learned their lesson so far, but they're not remotely there in terms of sealing up the u.s. financial system. so we've talked about our dangers of hacking into banks. well, imagine the fact that now banks -- here is a type of scenario that's absolutely real. hackers are quiet and they have been inside of systems for not just weeks, but many times months. it gives them a chance to understand the systems so that they can get in and do an attack. now, one group of hackers may say, we're just out for money.
another group could actually have ill intentions for not just the u.s. economy, but the global economy. let me tell you the scenario, 'cause this is very real. a group of hackers right now could do one attack where they simply go in and control the trading of any one bank, moving billions of dollars in a matter of a few minutes before it triggers and it stops it. you've now caused some serious concern. simultaneously, they do what's called a denial of service attack on the bank's web sites and also at the atm level, they can just have those disabled for a certain period of time before the bank can catch up with that. >> that could create like a run on the bank? >> what it can create is let's say we go down to the atm, it's not working, so we go in to the bank and they're like, our systems are down. we trio log on to the web site and that's down. you go, wait a second. where is my money? >> you've got great information there. just go to the cyberguy.com. thanks so much.

or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why eliquis is a better find for me. ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you. transferred money from his before larry instantly bank of america savings account to his merrill edge retirement account. before he opened his first hot chocolate stand calling winter an "underserved season". and before he quit his friend's leaf-raking business for "not offering a 401k." larry knew the importance of preparing for retirement.

ebola patients in west africa. >> nurse hickox refuse to go self quarantine and health officials in maine are promising legal action. >> you're not going to believe this. doug luzader has got it and he's why hickox is getting a lot of support from the white house. but not a lot of support elsewhere, doug. >> reporter: good morning. a lot of anger in the public about her response to this. casey hickox says she's being bullied by politician, that there is no scientific reason to keep her quarantined. it looks like she may try to violate that quarantine and launch a legal battle in the process. here is what she's now saying: i'm not willing to stand here, she says, and let my civil rights be violated when it's not science based. state officials, though, may now seek a court order to force her to stay inside her home to run out the clock on ebola's 21-day incubation period. >> we have been trying to work cooperatively with her.
there are concerns about the lack of reliability and the lack of trustworthiness and the information that has been received. >> reporter: while hickox has received a great deal of criticism for her unwillingness to quarantine, president obama has largely agreed with her sentiment, saying returning healthcare workers should not automatically face a quarantine. >> we need to call them what they are, which is american heros. they deserve our gratitude and they deserve to be treated with dignity and with respect. >> but at the same time, there is a discrepancy here because you have the pentagon and this new policy that requires all service members returning from west africa to observe a 21-day quarantine just in case. the white house, meantime, says that the country's new ebola czar, ron klain, a guy we really haven't heard from up to this point, and he's going to the cdc in atlanta today to talk about the nation's response to ebola.
back to you guys. >> thank you very much. the military and also the white house is saying the people in the military, they're not volunteers, so they're going to have to do the quarantine. wait a minute. they are volunteers. we've got a volunteer army for decades. >> we certainly do. when the president said they should be treated like hero, of course they should. they have these huge hearts, amazing healthcare workers going over there. but when they come back, they continue to sacrifice and stay quarantined for three weeks. they've made a big sacrifice. can we extend it a little bit long tore keep the american people safe? >> judge napolitano is here and believe it or not, he thinks she has a case in saying her freedom -- her right to be free has been violated. >> you're presumed free. again, the burden is on the state to show it. look, if they want to test her blood to see if she's carrying this disease, they can do that against her will. but they would still have to demonstrate to a judge with her lawyers there resisting this
demonstration that in fact she's contagious. she can not be quarantined just because she's a nurse and worked in western africa. she can not be quarantined because she has a fever. she can not be quarantined because they think or fore she's contagious. she can only be quarantined against her will if she is contagious. >> the doctor in new york that was running all over t when he landed october 12, he was fine. then he got ebola the next week. i hope she's fine and i hope next week she's fine. but what is wrong with showing us the same compassion and interest that she showed the people of africa? why not be responsible? seven out of ten respondents in this abc poll said she should be restricted to home quarantine for 21 days. our own military says and families want that had to happen. our army did it. so why is that good enough for them? they're not complaining. why is the president going to bat for her?
>> we've had other lawyers on the channel since the story broke saying the opposite of what the judge is saying, that the state has an obligation to keep its residents safe. >> sure. >> a lot of our viewers on facebook are saying some of the same things. >> sherry was typing a while ago and said she, the nurse, has the right to refuse, but has the responsibility to comply. >> an e-mail, laura says, i applaud the compassion she shows for sick people around the world. i firmly believe she should show that same level of concern for her fellow countrymen and stay home for the remaining 21 days. >> john tweets, why is she better than the family in texas that were under mandated quarantine? >> excellent point. and the judge brought this up. doesn't she have a professional obligation? she could be wrong. the test could be wrong. why not just sit there? there are people in maine who are freaking out about this. there are a bunch of people, i was reading the local people up
there -- who said we've given up surgery. we're going to have elective surgery. we're not going to have it because she might have been there. she wasn't there. there is no evidence that there is any ebola up there, but that's one of the reasons why this panic that has set in with some in maine is why the state is saying that if she leaves, we're going to arrest her. >> the president brings up fear. it's not fear, it's being responsible and smart. heather nauert is here and she's going to have more news, including what's going on with gitmo. >> this is quite a story. no surprise here. a fox news alert, former gitmo detainees reportedly back on the battlefield fighting for isis in syria. just moments ago, sources confirming to "fox & friends" that dozens of detainees who were released within the last two to three years may have joined the terror network. sources say of the 620 detainees that have been released from gitmo, 180 of them have returned to the fight all around the
globe. in colorado, he was sick of football and wanted to take a walk. that's the missing bronco fan's reason for vanishing from the stadium last week, leaving his son behind and searching for him. police found paul kiterman nearly a week later and 100 miles away. he says he just wanted to go somewhere warmer and started hitchhiking. friends believe he may have some sort of mental breakdown. glad he is safe this morning. the giants win the world series for the third time in just five seasons. >> 2-2. popped up. sandoval! >> wow. the final score 3-2. is that an enormous celebration or what? thousands packing the streets of san francisco to celebrate that win. then while you were sleeping, the husband of the
democratic state senator was wide awake and he was caught on camera as he stole republican campaign signs at 4 in the morning. check this out. >> those aren't your sign, bud. >> there is no -- >> there is mo what? >> there is no name on these signs. >> yes, they are. look right here. property of the republican party. >> we got you, brother. we got your license plate, your face and everything. >> what a dopey idea! it's like a high school election or something. happens all the time, okay. strange. police issuing an arrest warrant for dana long, the husband of delaware state senator bethany hall long. he faces a year in prison and a $2,300 fine. unbelievable. >> caught red handed. >> did he think it would make a difference in an election? >> it's the kind of thing where you're so down and out and so emotional about it, i guess you start doing silly things. >> perhaps.
>> caught red handed. let's take you out to chicago. democrat there, apparently what leslie did was, they offered followers on facebook -- she that, is to say -- the opportunity, if you go vote and we don't care who you vote for, we'll give you a gift card either for wall green, starbucks or pot belly, stuff like that. that's vote buying. >> free sandwiches sandwiches a. the board of elections said this is not okay. she's since apologized and said it was well-intentioned. >> still illegal. >> i remember in eighth grade the guy running for president was offering a bazooka gum and he was kicked out. he's not president today. in illinois, something else happened that's kind of interesting, too. they're aware -- see this video now of people actually voting for one candidate and the other candidate gets voted for. they're trying to vote for the republican. watch this. and it pops up the other name.
people have complained about this in the past and now we're witnessing it. >> this one guy said he voted in moline on october 27 and saw the problems on the news, but then shocked it happened to him. some people who watch this on youtube think his fingernail is accidentally touching it. >> both those stories are in the great state of illinois, which the president reminded people about a couple days ago. >> one week from today you get to choose a new governor. and because early voting runs through this friday you don't have to wait until election day. you can vote all week! i mean, you can only vote once. this isn't chicago now. >> that's funny.
>> fantastic. >> also, la raza, the hispanic amnesty group, what they did was on their web site, they linked to a "washington post" story that showed people where you can vote, which of the 50 states you can vote in without an i.d. >> because the courts are struggling with it. evidently you need i.d. to do everything in this country, including to get in this building or to fly on a plane, but the big debate is, are you racist if you demand i.d. from everyone? while that's locked up in the courts, there is directions on where to go to show up without i.d. >> is the "washington post" promoting voter fraud or just doing a public service? >> 20 states don't require i.d. >> they put it out there, but this immigration group tweeted it and then la raza retweeted it and it wasn't just nonpartisan. it had the hash tag to turn out the democrat hash tag.
>> on this thursday, you answered governor mike huckabee's rallying cry. you saw it here. >> send her your sermons. and here is another thought, everybody watching the show ought to send her a bible. >> now houston's mayor with her demand to get pastors sermon, but he's not done. >> that groom's grand gesture is about to go really, really wrong. we promise you'll want to see what happened. >> i do. ♪ ♪ when the game's on the line. okay patrick, let's go base, shark, blitz. the nfl trusts duracell quantum to their game day communication. abort! abort! he's keeping it. duracell quantum. lasts up to 35% longer than the competition.

so when i finally told my doctor, he said humira is for adults like me who have tried other medications but still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohn's disease. and that in clinical studies, the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief. and many achieved remission. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. if you're still just managing your symptoms, ask your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, remission is possible.
after much contemplation and discussion, i am directing the city legal department to withdraw the subpoenas issued to the five houston pastors. >> the mayor of houston back off her controversial bid to subpoena pastors sermons. >> tear no coincidence that americans answered a call from governor huckabee to send her their sermons and their bibles. and joining us right now from santa rosa beach down in florida is the governor himself. good morning to you, mike. >> good morning. >> we were talking about this case a week or so ago where because she is trying to defend
houston's equal rights ordinance, she was asking for all the sermons from all the pastors and anything that regarded her as well. there is this little thing, the separation between church and state we hear about all the time and religious liberty and we talked about it and you were furious. >> i was, steve. i'll tell you why, because government has no business demanding of pastors that they cough up their sermons or their correspondence with church members to satisfy some government official who is unhappy and upset because somebody dared challenge the way that she heavy handedly stopped an election. a lot of people don't seem to understand, this is about the mayor overruling the city clerk who had certified the petitions and said there was going to be an election to overturn this transgender ordinance and the mayor just decided, no, we're not going to have an election. i'll just say that those signatures weren't valid. this is an outrage.
it's the kind of thing that ought to scare the daylights out of people all over the country, not just houston. >> part of the equal rights ordinance would have allowed 40-year-old men to share restrooms with a fourth grade girl which didn't make a lot of sense. the pastors stood up for it. you feel like the mayor isn't going far enough. you'd like a personal apology. >> i think she not only needs to issue an apology, but she needs to declare that there will be an election, that the people have a right to vote on it. if they lose the election, that's one thing. but for her to arbitrarily decide that she is going to overrule the city clerk, anna russell, who has been in office for 42 years, and decide that what she certified is not right and the mayor and the city attorney decide arbitrarily that they're going to say there won't be an election? this is really at the very heart of america. we have a right to vote. we have a right to have our views held. i think this mayor is on quicksand, not on solid rock constitutionally. she knows it, but it's not
enough for her to say she's withdrawing the subpoenas. that's just a small part of the outrageous behavior that she has done in trampling over the religious liberty and constitutional rights of really all the citizens of houston. not just these pastors. >> governor, we're out of time. but you've already made a difference. let's see if you get that apology. i wouldn't be surprised if you get it before the day is done. thanks for getting up with us and good luck over the weekend. >> great to be with you. next on our show, cosmo magazine using these guys to get college girls to vote, but only if it's a democratic vote. >> we love women, suffrage and amendment 15. ♪ now we got the power to choose ♪ ♪ know what i mean ♪ your vote is your voice ♪ your vote is your voice ♪ u-s-a ♪ u-s-a why do people count on sunsweet amazin prune juice to stay fit on the inside?

that you put out there. you've been parodying different shows and things in pop culture for quite some time. why did you decide to do this? >> first, it comes from a research-based background. all of these ads are the result of our findings in 2013 which say millenials are tuning out politics as usual. typical political ad that you're going to see, millenials won't pay attention to it. so we knew we'd have to regenerate it, the generation that decided the last presidential election. the generation our party needs o reach if we want to win another national election. we started parodying television shows. we've tested this in several elections and settings and it works. it works by having higher engagement rates than your typical commercial. young people i think find it to be creative and a good way to reach them. we found that in our focus groups when we tested say yes to the dress, which is one of the most popular television shows among this demographic. >> you have to know your audience. as you mention, the support for
democrats from millenials certainly dwindling. we have a poll for that of people who are definitely going to vote. if we can go ahead and show that 18 to 29-year-olds, they say they will definitely be voting next week. they plan to support republicans by a margin of 51-47%. cosmo, on the other hand, they didn't like what you did. but they think it's a great idea to have a bus taking people they hope are voting for democrats with this. watch. >> we love women suffrage ♪ ♪ and amendment 15 ♪ now we got the power to choose ♪ ♪ know what i mean ♪ your vote is your voice ♪ your vote is your voice ♪ u-s-a ♪ u-s-a >> this condescending? how is it not in say yes to the dress is? >> i am still floored by the hypocrisy of all of this. we take a well-researched product, put it out on line to our generation, written by myself and the other female

analyst, but good morning. is it legal? that's a huge, huge question and the people who are arrested, part of this international gambleing prostitution ring, says the government broke the law by sneaking in to the caesar's palace villa to get evidence about an illegal gambling ring. what they did was, caesar's palace shut down the internet connection. these folks allegedly said, we need computers. we need equipment. we need one lines, we need the internet. >> if you're in a hotel and ask for that stuff, that's a red flag. >> $25,000 a night villas, so they're entitled to that stuff. so then caesar's palace says gaming commission, hey, f.b.i., we think there is something going on. these people are competing with us at caesar's palace. let's shut this down. so the f.b.i. and the gaming commission go in making believe that they're internet repair people from the hotel and based on that, go get a search warrant. when they got the search warrant, they didn't tell the
judge that they had snuck in there in order to allegedly repair it. they need to repair it because they're the folks that broke it. so the federal government is saying no. we had consent to go in. we had consent to go in because it was a ruse. people are saying this is a violation of the fourth amendment. >> what do you think? >> fell the truth to the judge. they should have said to the judge, this is what happened. this is how we found out. this is what we do. but the problem is, the problem is the federal judge said that's all nice and good, but i'm not giving you a search warrant. that's the problem in america. >> that's when they dressed up -- >> illegal ring, we don't want illegal rings. shut them down. but you can do it under the law. >> here is what one of the defense attorneys said, quote, if this court recognizes this due policity, the government will be free to employ schemes to enter the houses of innocent
people. they will have no -- >> i think they screwed up. i don't think that's the norm of the f.b.i. or gaming commission. unfortunately we're seeing stuff like this around the country. the seattle times ap, there is an issue there with regard to using malware, or spyware. that's where stuff is sent to your computer when you click on. they can find out what your accounts and what you're doing. apparently they did that to catch a bomb threat suspect in the seattle area. so they sent a fake story that showed that person's name in it and they thought they'd click on and use as malware or spyware to find their location. the f.b.i. says this is a closer call and i think i'm for the f.b.i. in this one. they say in certain cases, if there is a threat and here is a bombing suspect, someone who may be bombing schools, we need to find out where this person was and find them. so there is a narrow exception to the law in terms of an urgent
threat. but it's treading the line, too. the press has gone crazy about it and the a.p. has gone crazy. let's look at that one a little bit more. if we can stop a threat, then maybe sometimes, sometimes it's okay to impersonate a reporter. >> so once they got it right, once they got it wrong. >> yeah. close call on the second one. >> peter johnson, jr., traditional analyst. >> legal analyst. i'm not on the bench yet. but i've been on the couch. >> living room. >> thank you. coming up, he made more money for a crime family than anybody since al capone and then suddenly he found god. ex-colombo captain here with his unbelievable story. first on this date in 1964, "baby love" by the supremes, number one. ♪ all do you is treat me bad ♪ break my heart and leave me

fortune magazine once named him one of the 50 most wealthy and powerful mafia bosses. even referenced in "good fellows." >> there was pete the killer who was sally ball's brother. and you had nicky eyes. and mikey francese. >> he says he found jesus, so while he was in jail, now he's chronicling his journey to faith and a new movie. >> joining us now is ex-colombo crime family captain and motivational speaker, michael francis.
good morning. >> good morning. >> what you went through in jail, you were a bad guy. you were in the mob. you were one of the big guys? >> i was, yeah. almost 20 years. >> your dad was there first. kind of got you into the business. >> my dad was the underboss back in the '60s. >> tell bus the bad stuff you were involved in. >> all the traditional stuff, gambling operations, i get asked this question all the time. but it was a violent life. you're part of the life. you're part of the violence. >> did you kill anybody? >> let's just say i was around it quite a bit. >> so 3 1/2 years, you were in jail for a while. and for 3 1/2 of those years, you were in solitary confinement? >> yeah. >> at which time y said you had a revelation. >> i did. first night i was put in there, i was violated op my parole. i had already done five years. i was home 13 months. they violated me, put me back in and it was a night that first night of my life, the only time i ever experienced hopelessness. so i was laying on the cot in and a prison guard pushed a
bible through the door. it fell on the floor. i heard that thump. when i first saw it i was angry. i was mad at god. you're in that situation and you blame everybody but yourself. eventually i picked it up and spent three years really studying my faith and for me, christianity is rock solid. what's happened in my life afterwards has to indicate that there is something to it because i shouldn't be here. >> as people watch this movie, this "god the father" and watch the news clips from the actual time line of when you were doing really bad things and the reenactments and even animations and all that, how do you think they will translate this for their own lives? if he was able to find jesus and be saved, how can i be? >> that's exactly it. for the past 15 years, i've been telling my story in churches and corporate events and colleges. i work with a lot of these gang bangers. i'm going to a high school when i leave here and speak to the kids. but it's encouragement. if i can come back from the
situation that i was in, if i believe god has forgiven me for all the things that i did, then it's the same for everybody. >> your dad who got you into it, 97, still in jail. you talk to him. this is all real. you couldn't believe how much footage they shot of new surveillance. >> no. >> so this movie is very unique. >> we didn't have to take any dramatic liberty. it is what it is. it's very real. i never realized -- now i know how much trouble i was in because they had so much stock footage of me. i was in jail when most of it happened. >> how do we find out about the movie? >> godthefathermovie.com. it's here on 42nd street. starts tomorrow night. tell everybody on halloween, don't be squared. be blessed. >> thanks a lot. coming up straight ahead, the nurse who treated ebola patients thumbing her nose at officials who want her to stay inside. but the people who live there are thumbing their nose right back. wait until you hear what they're doing. then charles krauthammer is here. he's looking into his crystal

jersey. >> so listen, you want to have the conversation later? i'm happy to have it, buddy. but until that time, sit down and shut up! >> what got the governor all riled up? that story straight ahead. the water bottle was definitely there at the right time, unlike marco rubio. mornings are better with friends. >> live from the news crossroads of the world, this is "fox & friends." >> he's back, isn't he? >> he is. >> get off the beach! >> by the way, we should point out that while she's here on thursday, you're going to run the marathon. >> i'm getting nervous. i'm going to run for folds of honor. a military charity we feature all the time with major dan rooney. it helps families of fallen and wounded veterans. >> are you training hard? >> yes, very hard. >> i'm going to be there every step of the way watching on tv. >> yeah, you can track it. >> in fact, a lot of people watch tv to get things like the
news and heather nauert. >> anna, congratulations. didn't know you were doing that. >> congratulate me on monday. >> you will make it. that's for sure. good morning to you. some headlines, fox news alert at this hour. the former gitmo detainees reportedly back on the battlefield and this time they're fighting for isis in syria. moments ago sources confirming to "fox & friends" that dozens of detainees released within the last two to three years may have joined that terror network. sources say 620 detainees released from gitmo, 180 of them have returned to the fight all around the globe. while you were sleeping, the husband of a democratic state senator was up and at em, caught on camera stealing republican campaign signs at 4 in the morning, all caught on camera. >> those aren't your signs, bud! >> there is no -- >> there is mo what? >> there is no name on these sign. >> yes there are. right here, right here. property of the republican --
>> we got you, brother. we got your license plate, your face and everything. >> busted. police now issuing an arrest warrant for dana long, the husband of delaware state senator bethany hall long. he faces a year in prison and a $2,300 fine. hillary clinton created quite a stir with these comments. remember? >> don't let anybody -- don't let anybody tell you that, you know it's corporations and businesses that create jobs. >> this may be a preview of the next presidential election. former florida governor, jeb bush, taking a swipe at hillary. here it is. >> this last week i saw something that was breath taking. candidate -- former secretary of state who was campaigning in massachusetts where she said that don't let them tell you that businesses create jobs.
>> well, is this a sign he's jumping in? bush says economic growth creates companies and that in turn leads to more jobs. new jersey goff chris christie marking the second anniversary much super storm sandy when a war of words erupted with a guy in the crowd. he's holding up that sign that says, finish the job. he accuses christie of not doing enough to help storm victims who are still suffering. the governor then gives this guy a piece of his mind. >> i'll be more than happy to have a debate with you because something like you doesn't know a damn thing about what you're talking about except to show off when the cameras are here. i've been here when the cameras aren't here, buddy, and done the work! you want to have the conversation later, i'm happy to have it, buddy. but until that time, sit down and shut up! >> there you have it. the guy he's talking to is james keady, a former democratic councilman from new jersey. he brought out a group called finish the job and that's been critical of the pace of rebuilding taking place in new jersey. isn't that refreshing?
whether or not you agree with his politics, it's refresh to go hear from a politician like that. >> you could say refreshing is a good word. unless it's you. can't wait to be in the audience next time. i have a sense he knew who he was. >> i'm sure. >> so i think he knew this guy is trying to make some political hay. >> but then again, he's dealt with people like that before. >> he certainly has. he's called out those hecklers in the past. >> thank you very much. let's talk about this. if you are -- you know jeffrey goldberg wrote an article regarding our relationship between those two men, bb netanyahu and the president of the united states. and according to a top barak obama administration official, there is a quotation and it is this: the thing about bb is he's a chicken something. well, when people heard that, given the fact that israel is one of our closest allies, people were saying, wait. people in the administration can't talk like that about our greatest ally in the middle
east. there is going to be an apology, right? >> well, apparently there is not going to be an apology. general -- jen tsaki says they're not investigating it. take a listen to this exchange with a reporter. >> you don't feel the need for an apology because this was said by an anonymous official rather than let's say the vice president saying something about turkey in which -- or saudi arabia, in which he makes a phone call to apologize for? >> well, obviously every circumstance is different. i think i've been clear and the secretary will be clear when he speaks with the prime minister netanyahu next, that doesn't represent our views. >> he said so much more than just that expletive. they say that he is essentially myopic, netanyahu said to people in the past, i am writing off the obama administration and plans to speak directly to congress from here on in. he's scared to death, like many of us, that we're going to sign a terrible deal with iran to
allow them to keep nukes. juan williams tried to rationalize last night. i give him an a for effort. >> i think ha it's very clear to everyone that the united states and israel are key allies. they are bound together in the middle east. so the frustration i think you're sensing, steve, is why isn't the administration more angry at the north koreans or the russians, et cetera, but it's when you have a close friend or a husband or a lover and you just are frustrated with them that i think you see this kind of outcry. >> okay. if you are married to somebody and calling them a chicken something like that, you got major problems. but the white house insists, and every spokesperson who was asked about this yesterday said look, you know, yeah, that's an accurate quote, but the relationship between the united states and israel has never been better. and it really sounds like it, doesn't it? >> if my lover called me a chicken you know what, that would be their last time in the barn yard.
that is for sure. the other thing that really struck me that i guess didn't make as big a headlines because the words weren't so spicy was that somehow bb is the biggest frustration and it's not kim jong-un and not vladimir putin. with everything we're dealing with right now, come on. >> it looks like they believe we're going to stop protecting them at the united nations because the whole world seems to be against them. this is bad. their secretary of defense came here and our secretary of state wouldn't meet with them. and we've known that they've said very abracesive things about john kerry. he could collect his nobel peace prize and leave us in peace. >> when you think about leaked stories, this is one of the biggest leaks that we've heard out of the white house and given the fact that it is so big, do you remember they went after james rosen, they we want after the a.p. >> rosen had it coming. >> according to the department of justice, maybe not. according to what eric holder said yesterday. but we've gone after the department of justice has -- the
leakers before, but why not after this particular one? that's a great question and that's what ed henry asked the white house yesterday. >> why then are you kind of sloughing off this idea that you kind of don't care who leaked that story that not might have, that insulted the prime minister of israel? you've gone after reporters again and again in this administration to find out who leaked information to them. then when it comes to insulting the prime minister, you don't seem to care who leaked it. >> again, i don't think that is an accurate reflection of the administration's policy and certainly isn't an accurate reflection of our views of the prime minister of israel. in fact, they've actually put in place measures under the leadership of the attorney general to insure that journalists in this country are able to do their job. >> remember the associated press? remember our james rosen? attorney general eric holder was just asked about his biggest regret. and the answer may surprise you. >> i think about the subpoena to
the fox reporter, rosen. >> here is -- >> he regrets that. >> he regrets the language in the subpoena. to remind you what was in that, what they did was the department of justice was investigating leaks regarding some north korea stuff. in the affidavit, they claim that rosen had broken the law either as an aider and abettor or a co-conspirator and even brought up the espionage act. all to rationalize why they went after james rosen's phone data, which now they say, we really shouldn't have done that. >> they're always up to no good, the rosen couple. so they looked into that. so this is as close as it's going to get to an apology, but not far enough. james rosen responded yesterday in a statement. suffice to say for now that the attorney general's latest comments about my case, like this, previous remarks scarcely address the relevant facts of
his conduct and he said nice things about roger ailes and fox news having his back. >> that's james rosen, not eric holder. >> exactly. >> he doesn't say anything nice about fox news. >> let us know what you think about those stories and we'll share some comments. here's is what's coming up, the nurse who treated ebola patients thumbing her nose at officials who want her to stay inside. but the people who live near her are thumbing their noses right back. wait 'til you hear when they're doing next. >> a lot of thumb nosing. and have you seen the new crash test dummy? he actually had abs. the one on the right doesn't. so embarrassed, he's wearing a poncho. why are they packing all the weight on the dummy, dummy? ♪ ♪ fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. everybody knows that. well, did you know certain cartoon characters should never have an energy drink?

risk having her medical license revoked. joining us right now is the founder of that petition, jamie gas d sky. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> so you want her to stay in that house or lose her medical license. why? >> for the quarantine time. yes, because we don't want her possibly spreading this disease and endangering the lives of others, not just in our state, but everywhere else. >> she came outside and actually left the house, came out and said i'm healthy. and i'm not going to back down. i'm going to leave the house essentially and i know the state of maine is saying, we're going to go to court to keep you there. what's the reaction been from your neighbors regarding her there? >> i have actually got a lot of support on the web site for the petition. we actually on the actual petition site only asked for 1500 signatures. we exceeded that within 12 hours
time. >> sure. >> we are very afraid of her, just spreading the disease. we just want her to know that she is an rn, she should be knowing these things. >> do you feel like she has a professional obligation since she is a nurse to quarantine herself? >> yes. by not doing this, she is setting an example for other practitioners everywhere to just do what they want. >> right. but jamie, right now she says, i don't have a fever. i don't have any of the symptoms. i'm okay. i can't spread it. >> well, say that to the other soldiers that are being quarantined as well. everybody else is being quarantined for the 21 days. they had no symptoms or anything. they should be able to let go, too. what makes her different? >> you know what? there is a real good possibility she is watching this right now because she's there in that house with nothing else to do other than wanting to get out. what would your message be to her? >> our message would be that us mainors, i don't want her to feel like we don't want her
here, 'cause we do. it's just that we don't want her putting her wants and needs over the health and the safety of everybody else. we just want her to understand that we only want you to do this as a precaution, just to make sure that you're not spreading it and that everybody else is okay. >> all right. so so far your petition has ove. there is another one out there as well. there is a good possibility she's going to leave that house today. >> well, hopefully the governor will listen to our opinions. >> we'll see. all right. jamie, who started an on line petition to keep the nurse in the house in maine, thank you very much for joining us today. >> thank you. it's 19 minutes after the top of the hour. coming up, is this what happens when we give up on our space program? yeah, that's not good. this morning brand-new details as to why that rocket blew up. then what's the big delay with the keystone pipeline?

how their portion of the pipeline has created a lot of jobs and to find out why its northern extension, the part we're talking about, still in limbo. >> the southern leg is done. the northern leg held up many times. who are the bigger players in keystone xl's debate and why is that same economic boost being denied to other states? take a look. >> the pipeline crossroads of the world lies right in america's heartland, cushing, oklahoma. >> oklahoma now has the fourth fastest gdp growth in the nation and the energy sector is a big boost to that. >> part of that boost comes from the partially complete keystone pipeline which began carrying oil 487 miles from kush to go refineries on texas' gulf coast in january. >> the southern leg provided some 4,000 american jobs.
everything from labor and trades, project managers, specialists and consultants. economic shot in the arm. >> with the stand still of the projects, the creation of more than 42,000 additional temporary jobs was installed. so why is the pipeline northern leg, keystone xl, still awaiting presidential approval? >> we've been waiting for six years for our state department to issue a permit and here we are missing out on this great opportunity for job creation, revenue creation, helping our national security or economic security and producing american made energy. >> in an exhaustive environmental study, the state department determined the pipeline would have a minimal impact on carbon emission. many environmentalists still say it's not worth the risk. >> this pipeline would cross 1400 american rivers, streams and lakes. we don't need to be putting our drinking water at risk. we need to be investing in the clean energy economy of tomorrow. >> but there is another kind of green in the equation. billionaire and anti-pipeline advocate, thomas dyer, is the
largest democratic donor of 2014. contributing some $42.9 billion. the super pac producing this 2013 anti-pipeline ad. >> to think that oh, that little old-fashioned. it would be good for the economy. >> but keystone isn't an evenly partisan fight. in fact, 19 democratic congressmen and 16 senators support the construction, as well as democratic governors from missouri and montana. so as witnessed to her state's own pipeline success story, oklahoma's governor is demanding the president's attention. what would you tell him? >> say, mr. president, please allow the state department to approve the keystone pipeline permit and let's get this nation moving. >> so they had thousands of jobs that were created, but many of those were temporary jobs and it has since slowed down since this other portion of the project has houston up. the house voted to approval the pipeline some eight separate
times. the white house says it's waiting for a legal battle in nebraska. >> no, no, they're waiting for the election. >> conveniently. it's been postponed 'til after the mid terms. >> the senate would vote for it, but harry reid won't put it up for a vote. there's a majority in the senate, it will be on the president's desk. coming up, they're in this country illegally and now new proof that they are casting ballots at the polls. the outrageous voting fraud exposed coming up. and charles krauthammer is here and looking into his midterm crystal ball next. ♪ ♪ ññ
next month joe biden is scheduled to make international stops in turkey, ukraine and morocco to discuss foreign policy issues while his advisors are learning how to say we're sorry in all three languages. >> all right. that was a quick look at what jimmy fallon had to say last night. with us right now, charles krauthammer author of "things that matter," sold over a million copies now. outstanding fox news contributor. congratulations on the book. but because of that, we have to use you often, early and often, to talk about what's happening, especially with the mid terms inside a week. if the white house is so unpopular, if the president so unpopular and his policies are on the line and he says everybody that's up in these red states votes with him, why is this even close? why is this too close to call on election day?
>> it shouldn't be close. it should be a run away. it should be obvious right now. there are a lot of knife-edged senate races. the main reason is that the perception is that republicans are the party of no. they've only had control of one house of congress for the last four years. when you only have control of one house, essentially you're a blocking mechanism. and that is the role of the opposition. so it's nothing against the republicans to say that they have been the ones to block i would say the overintrusive liberal agenda of obama. but none the less, it doesn't play well in an election. in 2016, if the gop captures a senate, it can develop an agenda, pass legislation in the house and senate, dare the president to exercise a veto, and then it will have an agenda for the country. >> you don't blame -- you're kind of tough on them a couple days ago. you said essentially you better win this, republicans, you'll never have a better opportunity. just looking at the field. you don't fault them for not
having a hard and fast agenda? >> because in our system, you can have it in a british or canadian parliamentary system where you have a shadow prime minister. you have the opposition with a real agenda. here we've got 20 entrepreneurs who are going to run for president. there is no unity in the opposition. if i ask you, what was the democratic agenda in 2002, in the off year elections, there was none. that's not how it's constructed. an agenda will come from the nominee and it will come from the senate and the house if the gop captures the senate. >> to back up your point, in 2006, it was i don't like what's happening in iraq and then the surge happened and all turned around. >> mid terms are referendum on the incumbent. that's the way it is. >> an important poll, the american people were asked, has this administration been competent and effective in managing the government? 40% say yes. almost 60% say no. let's move on and talk about our international relations. editorial in the "washington
post," relations with turkey have never been worse. now with israel the same exact thing. according to a high ranking senior obama administration official, personally ripping into benjamin netanyahu, calling him chicken [ bleep ], because they said he's too worried about starting a war, only worried about his own political skin, getting real personal about a guy that's just coming off a war the administration didn't want him to fight. what's behind this? >> look, i think there is animosity between the leadership, the president and prime minister, unlike any in the history of israel. it goes back to 1948. this is unique. however, there is an underlying policy issue here. what the israelis are worried about more than anything else is that obama cuts a bad deal with iran. the deadline is in three weeks. no one is sure what's going to happen. but the way that the administration and the western powers had been making one
concession after another in the middle of the negotiations as a way to almost beseech the iranians to go ahead and make a deal, it looks as if if there is a deal, iran will be a threshold nuclear power, meaning it will be three months away, four months away and any time it wants in the future of getting a nuke and that for israel would be an exist essential threat. >> jeffrey goldberg in the atlantic says a lot of things. he goes on to say that the administration official, this anonymous source, high ranking, says netanyahu essentially doesn't have the courage to defy america and bomb two years ago and he missed his opening. is there any doubt that these feelings in your mind are accurate? is it truly the way the administration feels about netanyahu and company? >> there is no doubt that what we saw is an accurate reflection of what they think. that's the reason they won't offer an apology. everybody knows it's how the president thinks about the israeli leadership under likud.
you're not supposed to say it. you're supposed to deny it when it becomes published. but this is the tension between them. this is the worst relations between administrations, israeli and american probably in 50 years. >> you know what i would like? i would like this to leak out about vladimir putin. i would like this to leak out about assad. we have so many enemies in this world, why does it have to leak out about our so-called friends? we actually knew what the pres unfamiliar with the open mic con accept. he's had problems with it in the past. remember when he was sitting with sarkozy. he came out and said, how do you think i feel? you're fed up with him, but i have to deal with him even more often than you do. so the bed was made. >> the larger issue is that obama's relation, american relations with all the major powers are at the lowest ebb -- relations with russia, as you mentioned with turkey, with the
gulf states. saudi arabia refused to see the security council, first time that has ever happened in the history of the u.n. 'cause it was so angry at the united states over the way it negotiated over its head with iran and has been shutting it up. the gulf states are unbelievably upset with us. egypt has been flirting with russia and china 'cause it is so upset with the u.s. the policy of the u.s., no matter if you're a man of the left or right, however you see this, is that it's lowest ebb with the president who promised to improve relations, they are at their low ebb everywhere. this is a measure of his imcompetence. >> just think that the senate and house had a chance to sign off on the nuclear deal. right now the president doesn't plan on doing that. the russia deal in a lame duck session. >> they would reject it in a flash. >> the american people have not turned on the president when it comes to ebola. it's about 50/50 right now. but when it comes to this quarantine with this nurse in maine, what's your take on this? this morning she's essentially
saying you have no right to take away my freedom even though i was treating ebola patients and are still in the gestation period, the 21-day period. what is your take on the way the president is condemning those who condemn her for not going into the quarantine? >> the president is contradicting himself. his own army is going to be quarantining soldiers returning from the region. quarantining them in italy. so how can you on the one hand quarantine your soldiers and then declare that a governor or even a state of maine that wants to quarantine a healthcare worker is doing the wrong thing? it's a complete contradiction and the president has not answered it. >> let's hear what he had to say yesterday as he sat in front of some patients that once had ebola. >> when i hear people talking about american leadership and then are promoting policies that would avoid leadership and have us running in the opposite
direction and hiding under the covers, it makes me a little frustrated. so i put those on notice who think that we should hide from these problems. that's not who we are. that's not who i am. that's not who these folks are. this is america. we do things differently. >> long pause threw me off. he answered that three times. hiding what we're doing? >> quarantine is not hiding. quarantining probably is the most ancient of all practices of all states back to antiquity to protect populations from a contagion. the risk is low, but the fatality of this illness is 70%. when you have a low risk and a high fatality rate, i mean, a house quarantine simply stay
home for three weeks is -- there are four liberal states, including the northeastern states that have already instituted that. it is perfectly rational. >> the democrats are in charge of those states in those cases. do you believe charles krauthammer, that by general odierno saying that without checking with the white house was a step of defiance? >> well, i don't know what the motive was, but he has to look after the welfare of his soldiers. that's what a commander does. in battle and also in the barracks from disease, which is an ancient problem for all armies going way become in history. more soldiers, more armies have been destroyed by disease and contagion than by rival armies. so this is an elementary practice and he did exactly the right thing. >> he's a doctor, psychiatrist, and a commentator. charles krauthammer, thanks so much. we within right to your areas of
expertise. >> except baseball. >> right. by the way the giants were victorious in game 7. >> right. good to see you. >> sorry the nationals weren't in it. he goes to every single game. heather nauert knows that and take away the news. >> hi there. that brings us to politics. they are calling this a smoking gun. there is stunning evidence that illegal immigrants are voting in maryland. four people from frederick county are suing the state. they say they want a judge to intervene before tuesday's election. the group says that thousands who stated that they were not u.s. citizens to get out of jury duty went ahead and then voted in elections since 2006 and that's how officials caught on to it. >> this is massive voter fraud. this is a national story. this is the smoking gun. we have formal documentation, never been done before. >> that republican, pat mcdonough, says it makes a strong case for a voter i.d. law and says he'll push for one in the next legislative session.
the rookie cop who was attacked by a terrorist swinging a hatchet in new york city is now out of the hospital. 25-year-old kenneth healy was greeted with applause from fellow officers as he left the hospital. he now faces weeks of physical therapy before he can go back on the job. healy and three other cops were attacked last week by a man with ties to islamic extremism. this happening in the queens part of new york. watch your tummy, dummy? crash test dummies are packing on an extra 100 pounds. on the left is the original dummy. on the right is the new heavier dummy. it has a thicker waistline and bigger butt to resemble today's americans. they say it makes test results more accurate. what do you think of that? those are your headlines. what a story there. >> pound for pound, they're better dummies. >> all right. thank you. we've got a fox news alert. brand-new weekly jobless numbers just out. what do they spell for the state

>> rick scott is becoming a trusted brand. >> well, it's a play on the show "say yes to the dress" called say yes to the candidate. cosmo magazine coming out saying -- against the ad saying, quote, the only female voters who reliably support republicans are those who are married and who don't have a college degree, which explains perhaps this video's wedding theme. with more women going to college and putting off marriage than ever before, the gop may need more than strapless white rick scott gowns to attract female voters. i guess we know which side cosmo is on. >> right. 13 minutes before the top of the hour. your comments are pouring in about this. >> mark says, whatever it takes to get the vote out is fine. as a free nation, our voter turnout knows are deplorable. every man should vote. >> and kim says, the fact that anyone is looking to cosmo for direction speaks volumes.
>> because cosmo -- >> especially with magazines like cat fancy out there. they can give them a run for their money. a fox news alert. jobless numbers moments ago in. nicole petallides from fox business has them live from the new york stock exchange. good morning. >> good morning. we get in our weekly jobless claims and so ultimately we're getting some good news. it shows that employers have stopped the layoffs. the demand has returned from our great recession. and what we saw the numbers, exact numbers for the latest week, 287,000 claims versus estimates of 283,000. we are hovering around these 14 years. these are the fewest claims that we've seen in 14 years. ultimately it means we are seeing demand returning. we are seeing consumers back to a certain extent, back to work because it laid the ground work for higher wage growth. that's something that we've watched closely. the gdp numbers which talks about goods and services shows
that the economy expanded and so that's good news as well. for the month of october, which sort of felt volatile, we've been on a wild ride, it turns out it's been a decent month. the s & p 500 gained a half a percent. it wasn't a losing month. the dow is slightly low. s & p still holding on to gains and have a happy halloween tomorrow. >> thank you very much. don't miss nicole on the "fox business" network. to find it in your area g to foxbusiness.com/channelfinder. >> nicole's reality show. coming up on "fox & friends," you make sure your kids are safe on halloween. but how about your pets? stick around for that. >> speak of mr. america, there he is. mr. bill hemmer. >> i'm wearing my mask today, guys. i looked a lot like yesterday. it is scary. a warning for a postelection surprise. this is scary. is your insurance about to skyrocket under obamacare?

i wanted to hold scooby do. everybody wants to have a good time on halloween and that includes man's best friend. >> how to keep your pet safe? we're joined by the vice president of the american kennel club, our friend gina dinardo and some of her nury friends. good morning to you. what's the number one thing people do wrong with their dogs? >> let them have chocolate. >> it would kill them. >> you need to restrict dogs'
access to the treats around the house at halloween time. >> for chocolate, any candy. >> sticky candy can upset their stomach. it's best to keep it away. >> who is this one? >> this is scooby doo, a manchester terrier, dressed up like a shark. >> this next dog is in a movie. >> yes. this is mr. america. he's dressed as henry the viii. important to be mindful of the costumes your dogs are wearing. you don't want them to get caught on things. they may be flammable. keep them away from things like jack-o'-lantern and be aware of dogs with furry coats. they may overheat in a costume. >> our next contestant who looks like a member of the bush clan. >> this is tiza. she's decorated like a pet. it's also important to realize that dogs could get scared of children in costumes. so if you're going to take your dog for a walk, make sure it's during the daylight hours and make sure that you can see what's on the ground in case kids have thrown toys or candy
and stuff on the ground. >> and superman doesn't look like he's scared of anybody. >> this is reilly. again, it's just really important to make sure that if you're trick or treating with your dog, that you keep your dog away from the children. they could be scared and if you're opening the door for trick or treaters, maybe put the dogs away so that they don't run out and get scared. >> all right. and give your dog liver treats. not kryptonite. i bet you got a web site? >> got tons of tips there. >> if it's cold, buy your dog a warm costume. >> thank you. >> we've got one for the road coming up next. >> she could jog ♪

>> wasn't us. thanks for inviting us into your home. that's it for "special report." fair, balanced, and unafraid. greta goes on record now. this is a fox news alert. the house of representatives is voting right this minute on whether to hold former irs official lois lerner in contempt. i'm greta van susteren. this is "on the record." >> i have not done anything wrong. >> lois lerner in hot water, and it is boiling over. >> lois lerner and the internal revenue service systematically targeted american citizens. >> i urge my colleagues in the house to hold ms. lerner in contempt. >> the critical vote just minutes away. plus -- >> how much pornography would it take for an epa employee to lose their job? >> porn, really?
perverts at the epa. >> you are returning an organization in which nobody can be fired. >> what knuckle head is your government letting this happen. also, monica lewinsky burning the beret and burying the blue dress. >> it's nobody's business. >> now all eyes on hillary clinton. >> and -- >> we weren't supposed to be here. you made us belief. you kept us off the street. >> basketball's most valuable player giving away his title. >> you're the real mvp. and right now, the house of representatives is voting on whether to form former irs official lois lerner in contempt of congress. she repeatedly refused to answer questions about the irs targeting. mike emanuel is live on capitol hill. mike? >> greta, good evening. a day full of drama on capitol hill as republicans have been arguing a year after lois lerner
came here to capitol hill, defended her actions at the irs, saying she had done nothing wrong in the targeting of conservative organizations. they're arguing that a year later, she should be held in contempt of congress. she has spoken to the justice department for hours on end, apparently all indications are, and they're saying she should be speaking to the united states congress. democrats have been careful not to defend lois lerner's actions at the tax collection agency, but they say they don't believe she's waived her fifth amendment right. for that reason, we expect almost all or perhaps all democrats to vote against this contempt of congress resolution. so bottom line, we should know shortly whether she's going to be held in contempt. all indications are she will. then the question is where does the irs investigation go from here? i have been speaking with leadership aides and officials here on capitol hill, and they say this is not the end of the irs investigation here in terms of the united states congress. they say you're going to be seeing a lot more oversight from them throughout the rest of this year, but this is a significant
chapter. it is not every day that somebody is held in contempt of congress. greta. >> mike, her lawyer wanted to address congress at one time. that was obviously declined. and now if she is, if the vote goes she's held in contempt of congress, we're still waiting for the vote to end, it goes where? over to the justice department, right? >> that's right. my understanding is it would go to the united states attorney. it would also go to the justice department. they would ask that a grand jury be convened and then the question is what happens from there? the house is also going to vote on a resolution calling on eric holder to appoint an empty special counsel because they have little faith in the current investigation under way at the justice department. no indication that will go anywhere, but they want to be able to say to their constituents they're still on the case and trying to make things happen and trying to get to the bottom of the irs targeting of conservative organizations. >> the most curious thing is whether anyone jumps ship. whether the democrats vote the
republican way, the republicans vote the democrats way or this is straight down party lines. unlikely anybody is going to jump ship, right? >> we understand the democratic leadership was telling the rank and file members they didn't want them to support the measure, so they were whipping against the measure. we expect the republican leadership was talking to their members. they seemed confident they would have -- >> and this is a fox news alert. the vote is now over. lois lerner has been held in contempt of congress. the vote ending just seconds ago. you're looking add live pictures of congress. where it goes from here, is this contempt of congress resolution will go to the department of justice. that's where eric holder, the attorney general of the united states, will have to make a decision whether or not he wants to refer it to a grand jury for further investigation or whether he wants to put it in his pocket and end it here. you can imagine this is not going to end the fight on capitol hill. we're also standing by to figure out what happens with whether or not there will be a special
counsel voted to investigate the irs. that, of course, is something republicans want very much. something democrats have been resisting. democrats say there have been plenty of investigations and in fact, there's already an investigation going on at the justice department. but as you can imagine, this is going pretty much along party lines. republicans dominate the house of representatives, so they have dominated this vote tonight, but the big news tonight. lois lerner, former official of the irs who one year ago came before congress, made a statement, then took the fifth amendment, has now been held in contempt of congress. and it's notable that the criminal defense lawyers here in washington are giving her lawyer, bill taylor, a hard time because many people thought he should have counseled her not to say a single word or she would not be in hot water now. the minute she started talking, then, of course, waived her fifth amendment right on the issues. that's why she's in hot water tonight. a lawyer, former official at the irs who retired last fall, is now held in contempt of court.
and joining us, our political panel. rick klein, fortune magazine editor nina easton, and byron york. byron, big news tonight. >> big news. you hit it right at the end. listening to the debate in the last hour, it's all come down to her testimony, the first hearing she appeared at was may 22nd, 2013. the irs scandal is heating up. she appears, and instead of saying i'm not going to say anything. i'm citing my fifth amendment right against self-incrimination, she reads a rather lengthy statement. she makes factual statements, she defends herself. and only then when the questioning is supposed to start, she says, i'm asserting my fifth amendment right not to testify. >> what is particularly dopey about that from my legal background is she could have just taken the fifth, gone outside and stood on the capitol steps and said the same thing,
but her lawyer walked her right into that. >> i think this has political meaning, this vote today. i'm not sure it has legal meaning in terms of her paying a fine or going tojail. >> here's the thing, this whole process is going as we just learned, into the justice department. which is run by an official who was held in contempt by congress. okay? congress -- >> so he's clecking contempt. >> congress has issued these contempt citations against five officials in history. dating back to the reagan administration. two were top white house officials during the bush administration. two were under the reagan administration. one went to jail. rita lavelle, for six months. but you know, the white house officials under bush didn't go. eric holder, the top law enforcer in the country, is still not only not in jail, but actually sitting at the justice department. so if you really think this is going to, you know, the wheels are going to start churning on this and lois lerner is going to
be indicted and end up in jail, i don't see that happening. >> does this mean anything? >> holder gets to decide whether it means anything. lawyers are split on the legal meaning of that statement. i think you're right. it seems silly to put your client in that kind of jeopardy. >> when there's a gray area, you err on the area of protecting your client. you don't roll the dice. >> it means something as a precedent for the house. you're in big trouble if you do something like this. there is this argument about whether she -- democrats argue that you cannot waive your fifth amendment right simply by declaring your own innocence, but also, remember a couple months ago, they had this hearing, and darrell issa cut off the ranking democrat, elijah cummings said forget it, cut his mike, this is over. they claim he botched the contempt process by doing that. this has as mch to do with the fight going on between republicans and democrats in the house in the committee than it does with what lois lerner did. >> what happens?
nothing? >> nothing. i think the investigation continues. i would be surprised if this creates a real legal jeopardy for lois lerner. i don't think eric holder is likely to act on this. this is clearly political maneuvering. you can agree or disagree about the substance of the irs scandal, but this is beyond that. >> eric holder called the fast and furious investigation, which led to his contempt, politically motivated muck. you know, and i think he considered this the same thing. he's not going to move. >> you know, to go back to the legal thing, alan dershowitz said this was terrible lawyering. that she did waive her fifth amendment right, but i think, to me, the whole thing is why in the world did bill taylor even walk her near this problem. this is a problem that is so unnecessary for her, and she's a lawyer. >> right. that's how you get in trouble in these things, process, things like that. >> so now, tomorrow we wake up and what does the house do? >> well, there's a lot to fight
over. if you listen at the end of this debate, jim jordan, the republican member of the committee, came out and said, well, we just did our 40th interview and it led us to new information about contacts between the irs and the justice department. if you listen to republicans, they believe there's still a lot to do beyond lois lerner in the irs. >> they served subpoenas on the irs. they're still trying to get information. i have never seen it, it's the strangest thing. they serve a subpoena and it's like an invitation, not an order. >> i think there's been complaints throwing throughout the process over that. this is a year deep. right now, it's just as much about keeping it alive in the headlines. more information coming forward, finding something to connect the dots. it's looking very likely that this is just going to be a political issue for the fall. going to certainly motivate the base. >> it also could change if republicans win control of the senate. then the administration would be defying two branches of congress instead of just one.
>> we talk about the political ramifications, but you know, so many americans sitting at home tonight, they're terrified of the irs, and they want answers. and they see this as sort of the political drama playing out here, and we show the vote on tv andeal, but most americans, what in the world is the irs doing? >> the president called it an outrage originally. now it's become partisan -- >> phony. >> now it's become a partisan -- >> right, but it was an outrage, then it was phony. and then it was partisan. >> that's right, and now it's partisan. but i agree with rick. i think this is going to be politically the effect of this is going to, you know, really put the scandal back on the front pages. it's going to help generate the base in 2014 and be good for republicaneri republicans. >> it's a benefit for democrats if they can characterize this as completely partisan like they'll try to do in the benghazi investigation as well. >> that's something that's new here. it feels like the '90s in a lot of ways.
back to the big scandals and this scandal atmosphere. benghazi going on. even monica back. there's an effort to say, look, we're really going to dial up the pressure, make it bigger than it has been in the past, and it's contributing to an overall atmosphere, a lot of disconnect surrounding it, feeling like you're not getting answers, but that's the feel. >> all right. and a fox news lurt. seconds ago, passing a resolution to ask the justice department to appoint a special counsel to probe the irs. mike, this is vote number two. >> well, that's right, greta. we just got the numbers. 250-168. so all republicans voted in favor in calling for a special independent counsel to investigate the irs targeting of conservative groups and 26 democrats joined with republicans in this case to support this measure. with the lois lerner contempt of congress measure, only six democrats came over to support the effort. in this case, 26 democrats
coming across. clearly either hearing from their constituents that they want more answers about the irs scandal or perhaps recognizing at this point, they shouldn't put all their eggs in the justice department basket, so this will be sent on, and we'll see what eric holder decides to do. he may tell the house to go fly a kite, but the house is keeping up its pressure on holder and all those involved with the irs case to try to get some answers. >> thank you, mike. 26 democrats. that's amazing. isn't it? >> the pressure they're feeling on this. they're hearing it from a lot of constituents. i imagine we'll see the roll call. a lot in red districts. they want to say, yeah, they were there fighting alongside republicans when it was about accountability. >> and six democrats voted for contempt in the house. that passes as bipartisanship. >> the contempt vote came after a heating debate on the house floor. >> i urge my colleagues in the house to hold ms. lerner in
contempt. >> i have not done anything wrong. >> welcome to witch hunt week here in the united states house of representatives. >> we wouldn't be here today if ms. lerner had not conducted her own partisan witch hunt. >> lois lerner and the internal revenue service systematically targeted american citizens. >> this is a circus. >> this has become a partisan joke. >> the fifth amendment is protection, it is a shield. lois lerner used it as a sword. >> ms. lerner needs to be held in contempt. not since mccarthy has this been tried. we are better than that. >> a lot of talking for someone woo wants to remain silent. >> when you trample on her rights, you have risked every american's rights. >> maybe if i turn my head sideways, maybe she would have talked then, but she did talk. she said a lot of things. and then decided, oops, don't want to talk anymore.
>> representative jim jordan joins us. good evening, sir. >> good evening, greta. >> well, on the vote for lois lerner, six democrats joined the republicans. but tell me, is this vote, is it the piece of the vote or just show? what's going to happen? >> it's going to go to a judge eventually. remember, the justice department appealed some of the others, like holder, when we held attorney holder in contempt, they appealed it. the legal argument was executive privilege. i don't think they're going to put forward that argument because i don't think they want to admit the president talked in any way with lerner. we think it gets to the judge. the judge will say, go talk to congress and answer the questions. we think there's a strong likelihood there. now -- >> let me ask you this question, though. in order to get to the judge, don't you have to essentially hand it to the attorney general of the united states and he's the one who has to present it to the grand jury or the judge? you have to go through the attorney general of the united states. you don't just bypass him,
right? >> no, no, there's a u.s. attorney, the statute says shall take it to a grand jury. so it's a shall statement, not a may. the u.s. attorney should take it to a grand jury. there's no timeframe. we would like it to happen sooner rather than later. the grand jury is going to say yes, the house did hold you in contempt. let's get it to a judge. then we'll see what kind of legal theory the justice department comes up with. >> i used the phrase, the attorney general. you're right about the u.s. attorney, but the u.s. attorney works for the attorney general of the united states. is there no discretion for the prosecutor of the u.s. attorney to decline to prosecutor? are you saying the language is absolutely shall, and he has absolutely no option as to go to a grand jury? >> that's my understanding. shall language, every time it's happened when it's not someone in the justice department like holder, when they have not brought forth the legal theory that it's executive theory. every other time it's happened, it went to the grand jury, then went to the judge, and the judge said, yes, you're in contempt, answer questions or go to jail.
when there's a threat of jail, people typically see the light and they come answer the questions. that's what we hope happens here. that's been the history. >> 26 democrats with the irs special council. surprising they got 26 democrats? >> that is huge, the fact that 26 democrats, a bipartisan majority thinks and know that the investigation currently going on in the department of justice is a joke. when you leak to the wall street journal no one is going to be prosecutored, when the president says there's no corruption, not even a smidgen, and when barbara boxer gave a max out to the president's campaign leading the investigation, everyone knows this is a joke. now to have 26 democrats come alongside with us and vote for a special council, this is huge, huge news that that many democrats see that, look, we have to have a real investigation, something that is impartial, something that's going to actually get to the truth. >> thank you, sir. >> you bet, greta. thank you. house republicans and democrats are throwing punches at each other over the benghazi
select committee, but now a new twist. it involves some u.s. senators. kelly ayotte goes on the record next. and a father traged out of a school meeting in handcuffs. you have to see this coming up. and monica lewinsky is back. will she cause new trouble for secretary of state hillary clinton? stay tuned. really... so our business can be on at&t's network for $175 dollars a month? yup. all five of you for $175. our clients need a lot of attention. there's unlimited talk and text. we're working deals all day. you get 10 gigabytes of data to share. what about expansion potential? add a line anytime for 15 bucks a month. low dues... great terms... let's close. new at&t mobile share value plans. our best value plans ever for business.

they want the new benghazi select committee to include members of the u.s. senate, not just the house. senator kelly ayotte joins us. you want in? >> of course, we want in. first of all, in the senate, there was the intel, senate intel committee did a report. you had the homeland security committee, but you didn't have
that whole look and the senate armed services committee didn't do a report of its findings. most importantly, foreign relations. all of that course of conduct from the state department, all of the warnings in advance, thinking about the attacks on the consulate in advance, the incident both in april and june. so nothing on that. so it is important, i think, for the senate to have a piece of this. >> are you saying that the house can't do it? >> first of all, i have great confidence in trey gowdy. i'm pleased that the speaker has appointed the select committee, formed it, trey gowdy, former prosecutor. he'll get to the bottom of this, he'll get to it facts. i also think, though, to the extent we can have the senate, i would call on the majority leader to not have him form the similar type of committee in the senate and make sure that we're doing our jobs as well in the senate. it's important. we can't overlook this. in the senate, it's been very disjointed as well in terms of the investigation. i have great confidence in the
house in doing this. >> you were a co-signer with senator graham and senator mccain in a letter to president obama. you want to know where he was september 11th, 2012. i take it you haven't gotten an answer. >> we have gotten no answer. >> why is that information so important to you? >> i think it's really important because he's the commander in chief. we had this attack that occurred over a seven-hour period. i think the american people want to know what was he doing as the commander in chief that night? what actions did he take. tommy vetter came on your show -- not on your show, bret's show on fox and said he was -- >> the president never came in the situation room. why is that? we had americans under attack. i mean, this is a serious situation. and so i think it's important for the american people to know, we knew everything that happened in osama bin laden. yet on this one, we haven't heard a thing. >> we actually have pictures of the situation room, with osama bin laden, and good for the administration for getting that one. >> i'm glad he did that, but what about this one. >> frankly, i'm surprised tommy
vitor was in the situation room, but that's another story. besides that, i was not suspicious of the president. he can do business anyplace in the world, but the fact they won't tell us. i think, why in the world won't you tell us where you were, what you were doing? now i'm suspicious. >> i would agree you. of course, he's the president. he could be on air force one giving orders, but we should have accountability there. i think it's a good contrast to think about we're so glad what was done to get osama bin laden, but here we have four americans killed by a terrorist attack in the line of duty. occurred over seven hours. people have so many questions. just tell us what happened. >>vitor in the situation room. senator, nice to see you. >> good to be with you. >> you paid for this one. a government employee downloading and watching porn. that's pornography at work for up to six hours a day. did he get fired? nope. in fact, you paid him a bonus. a stunning look inside our government agency next.

this is a fox news alert. wisconsin governor scott walker wins, then loses, at least sort of loses. momeabouts ago, the seventh circuit court of issuing a temporary ruling on a secret investigation. mike lowe is live with the story. mike, what is going on there? >> well, good evening, greta. this has been almost a whiplash inducing turn of events. within the last 24 hours, a federal judge here in milwaukee told prosecutors to stop their secret investigation into scott walker and other groups that campaigned for him in the recall election in 2012. the judge also told the prosecutors they had to destroy
any evidence they gathered along the way in the case. earlier today, very early this morning, the prosecutors filed an emergency appeal with the seventh circuit court of appeals in chicago. just within the last few minutes, a three-panel judge from the court essentially told everybody to hold on a second and said that that earlier order is now stayed. that means the john doe investigation into governor walker and the possibility of legal coordination with the outside groups, the conservative groups, continues, and all of that evidence must remain intact. we asked governor walker earlier today about the possibility this could happen. he said he's used to things being tied up in the courts. he's not going to get too excited about one ruling, one order here or there. he's going to wait to see how this plays out until the ultimate, possibly in the supreme court, and right now, he said he's just focused on doing his job in moving wisconsin forward, in his words. >> what's next in this? >> right now, it appears that the appeals process is going to play out through the seventh
circuit court of appeals in chicago. and so right now, the earlier ruling that was made in the federal court here in milwaukee has been stayed. and now the case moves on to the seventh circuit court of appeals and the courts move on their own timetable. >> of course, the reason it was stayed is because part of the order down below was to destroy evidence. and no court wants evidence destroyed before it can make a decision. that was probably the linchpin for that. mike, thank you. >> indeed. >> get ready for this. hours of porn watching, and you, yes you, are paying for it. an inspector general telling congress this is just the beginning of rampant worker misconduct at the ep ark. >> the employee confessed to spending between two and six hours per day viewing pornography while at work. >> how much pornography would it take for an epa employee to lose their job? >> there's a three-ring circus going on in the ep aa, and it's quite embarrassing.
>> the employee downloaded and views more than 7,000 files on department hours. >> is it against department policy to watch porn at the office? >> it is. >> then fire him. >> how many have been terminated? >> none. >> this guy is making $120,000, spending two to six hours a day looking at porno. he received performance awards. >> yes, he did receive performance awards. >> what are you doing about it? >> i'm not personally doing anything about it. >> that's the problem. we have an employee looking over 600 porn sites in a four-day period. fire him. >> and mark meadows joins us. oh, brother. >> you know, it's hard to believe. if it weren't so tragic, it would be funny. ia know, we've got some 625 individual websites that were viewed in four days. yet the guy is still working. >> got a bonus? >> and got a bonus on top of that. how do you explain that to the american people? it's just mismanagement.
but it's not only here, greta. it's across the epa. we heard testimony of people being paid for five years without showing up for work. and it's just -- it's just really sad. >> the thing that distressed me, that abc did a report on the fcc in 2010, and i went back and looked at it. there was a senior attorney at scc headquarters that spent up to eight hours downloading and accessing porn. this is a lawyer. meanwhile, they're not going after bernie madoff. are you sure it's just the epa looking at porn and downloading it on our dime? >> we see so many things that are unfolding where the government fails to manage its people. and that's sad. >> why can't you fire them? >> we need to fire them. that was my question today. how many have we fired, out of all these people? the answer was zero. >> how come? can't you fire these people? they're gnaw doing their job. we don't pay them to look at porn. >> we don't, and the american people don't understand it. i don't understand it. and what we've got to do is
figure out a way to penalize these managers. >> how about pass a law? you look at porn for two minutes, you do anything about your job, and you're out? >> and if you look at the tapes of that interview, it went over and over of how they avoided the question on, you know, how they should deal with this particular thing. talked two to six hours of viewing it. what it didn't say in that teaser is two to six hours every day since 2010. i mean, we're talking about years. >> you know, i would bet you -- i would bet my right arm every colleague who sits around this person and around anyone else knew about it and just looked the other way. i'm actually critical of any government worker who knew about that and didn't speak up. >> they didn't speak up, and really, i talked to my office today, and they said, you know, those kind of things can't go on unnoticed. so we not only need whistle blowers on this kind of thing, but we naed to make sure we hold them accountable and fire them. >> change the law, pass a law. you can do that really fast.
the house, the senate, i can't believe anyone in any party thinks it's okay to pay government workers to download porn on taxpayer time. >> and i think we need to address it just like that. >> congressman, thanks. nice to see you. >> thanks. >> and monica lewinsky making headlines again. should former secretary of state hillary clinton be worried? that's next. capitato make it happen? that makes it real? what's a vision without the expertise to execute it... and the financing to make it grow? whatever your goal, it can change more than your business. whatever your goal, it can change e future.

now time to show you what we're watching, put together the most gripping videos. just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, a real life jaws attack. in south africa, a great white shark attack on a boat. watching the shark, as it went right through the pontoon. the boat started sinking, but amazingly, everyone got out alive. the shark left and the crew survived. they were just a little shaken up. >> a father dragged out of a school meeting in handcuffs. >> what are you charging me
with? >> disorderly conduct. >> parents are made to protest a controversial book read in their english class. they say the book is too racy for their children's class, but when one father spoke longer than his allotted time, he was arrested. he'll be here to go on the record. that's what we're watching tonight. if you want to see more of the videos, go to gretawide.com. now to monica lewinsky, the former white house intern putting her affair with former president bill clinton back in the spotlight and just in time for the 2016 election. will lewinsky's tell-all create problems for hillary clinton if she runs? our political panel is back. rick klein, abc news, a problem for the former first lady? former secretary of state? >> i think only in that it reminds people of the scandal atmosphere that surrounded the end of the clinton years. if we're back in that, and we have been talking about benghazi and the irs, if we're back in
that atmosphere, that may be a drag on hillary clinton. nothing of what monica lewinsky wrote on the piece, and it's a thoughtful article, to me says she's going to be out there sniping at the clintons. quite to the contrary, she said she has a lot of respect for them, but if she decides to give a lot of interviews, do speeches. whatever she decides to do, her very presence out there in that it reminds people of the bad days of the clinton white house, no scenario to me, and i know others disagree with that, no scenario to me where it's good. >> it reminds the clinton haters of the bad days. impeachment of clinton was not a bonus point for republicans. it didn't turn out well politically. >> and you know, it's interesting reading this because there are the clinton haters and the clinton lovers, and then there's women who are married or in relationships, and monica lewinsky talks about this as a consensual relationship.
and an adult relationship. she said it was not a power relationship. she regrets that -- she doesn't apologize to hillary clinton. >> i say because there's that comment where apparently hillary clinton said to her old friend, something that she was a loony toon or something. >> she also did a sort of insulting indirect comment to hillary clinton, commenting on her marriage as being emotionally unavailable. here's this young woman having an affair with hillary clinton's husband. and i think that's going to resonate with women sort of beyond politics. >> i think the effect of this might actually help secretary clinton because it's essentially to try to normalize this relationship. monica lewinsky describes it, she uses the word consensual, but it's as if there are two adults having a love affair and not a 50-year-old president of the united states having sex acts in the oval office with a 22-year-old young woman. i think the effort is to kind of
normalize it. and make people forget how stunning it was when you found out. this was in january of 1998. the country was just stunned by this news. >> does it not go to secretary clinton's advantage that she was not the cheater? i mean, that's sort of left out of this. she wasn't the cheater, and there may be many people who have gone through tough times in their own marriages and have an appreciation for people who can put an ugly situation back together. >> infidelity between a middle aged husband and a young woman. that's probably going to resonate with a lot of women. >> she's also the director of the white house political push-back effort, too. you didn't get tougher in the political fight than hillary clinton. the anti-ken starr campaign. >> stand by your man, too. whatever. >> that, too. >> panel, thank you. never dull. okay, everyone.
here's what's being hashed out right this second. the nba's newly named mvp bringing his audience to tears and lighting up twitter. kevin durant making an emotional accept nls speech. he brought down the house while thanking his mother. >> we weren't supposed to be here. you made us believe, you kept us off the streets, put clothes on our backs, food on the table. when you didn't eat, you made sure we ate. you went to sleep hungry. you sacrificed for us. you're the real mvp. >> that speech taking twitter by storm. everyone, celebrities, politicians, all talking about it. oklahoma governor mary fallin tweets, for kd's service to the state and his actions on and off the court, today will now be kevin durant day in oklahoma. and missed this? watch it. and jimmy kimmel chimes in, that
was the best mvp speech ever. congratulations, kevin durant. i have to agree. try topping that, everybody, this mother's day. and the stars of neighbors are trending. it's hash tag #wcw. which stands for women crush wends. what is one of the most retweeted tweets today? it's from zac efron. he tweets my first hash ta tag #wcw. and that's zac efron along with jimmy fallon and seth rogen. they're on the tonight show promoting "neighbors." so who do you think is the best dressed? we'll hash out your tweets and posted. >> for the first time, former secreta secretary of state clinton talking about the benghazi probe. you'll hear from hillary clinton and charles krauthammer is here to talk about it next.

information that's been provided, some choose not to be satisfied and choose to continue to move forward. that's their choice. and i do not believe there is any reason for it any reason fo it to continue in this way, but they get to call the shots in the congress. >> the author of the blockbuster book, "things that matter," thank you for joining us. benghazi has a vote, six democrats voted about den ga si. actually, i'm mistaken about that. it was a party line. what about benghazi. >> when you hear secretary clinton say all the questions have been answered. i understand people have their reasons. what she's saying are the only people interested in benghazi are partisans that want to get at me. there are glaring questions that are unanswered. the fact the story was revised a couple weeks ago has to do with
the fact something emerged. for a year and a half, they had not release add memo, it was a directive. a memo to susan rice telling her to press the story of the video, just before she went on tv. the memo was entitled "prep" for susan rice to go on tv. she got all her information from the cia, that's why she brought up the video. she wasn't getting pressure from the white house. now we know. to me, what's important is will the committee come out with new facts? there were so many unknowns, so many damaging, that i think it will and the committee ought to go ahead. her pretense is ridiculous. >> well, the vote has not occurred. i was confused about that. the one with the democrats crossing over were the murder
contempt. is this vote important? >> they took a second vote where they asked the attorney general to appoint a special prosecutor. 26 democrats crossed the aisle. >> everybody hates the irs. >> you don't want to be a democrat seen as standing in the way of an investigation of what looks to me to be very clearly a violation of the trust. the irs making political choices and persecuting the organization of the basis of their ideology. everybody is afraid of the irs. at least if you think they are administrating their powers, they are very great. in a fair way, you will accept it. this is obviously unfair. that's a lot of democrat that is went against their leadership. the president said there wasn't a smidgen of corruption in the irs scandal. >> it was outrageous. >> exactly. between those two statements, there was no change in the facts. >> we have three seconds left.
we were talking to the panel about the lewinsky story. is this an issue for the secretary of state? >> i think not. if anything, the timing will help. we are two years out. it will bring it up for awhile. it's a form of development of antibodies. if i were her, i would be happy about this. better now than on the eve of the election. >> charles, nice to see you. thank you. >> pleasure to be here. >> let's go off the record. i don't want to be an alarmist, but i also don't want to be dense, ignoring the obvious. here is a disturbing fact. global polio threat is back, pakistan, afghanistan, israel, somalia and nigeria are a handful of countries where polio is spreading. itis not here in the united states, at least not yet. decades ago, we had an outbreak.
this is nothing to ignore. polio is highly contagious. yes, you can die from polio. maybe i'm an alarmist because i travel to those countries and people from those polio stricken countries travel, too. maybe i'm worried, too worried because i have a vivid memory of lining up at a local public school to get the polio vaccine on a sugar cube. by the way, i hated them. when no one was looking, i pocketed it only to toss out later when no one was looking. i have grown up, gotten smarter. i know it's a health crisis and this could be a big one. the united states needs to step up fast and be the leader. stop polio before it stops us. we can't wait. that's my off the record comment tonight. new video surfacing of the teen who stowed away in a plane to hawaii. that's next.
i'm l-i-s-a and i have copd, but i don't want my breathing problems to get in the way of hosting my book club. that's why i asked my doctor about b-r-e-o. once-daily breo ellipta helps increase airflow from the lungs for a full 24 hours. and breo helps reduce symptom flare-ups that last several days and require oral steroids, antibiotics, or hospital stay. breo is not for asthma. breo contains a type of medicine that increases risk of death in people with asthma. it is not known if this risk is increased in copd. breo won't replace rescue inhalers for sudden copd symptoms and should not be used more than once a day. breo may increase your risk of pneumonia, thrush, osteoporosis, and some eye problems. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking breo. ask your doctor about b-r-e-o for copd. first prescription free at mybreo.com

baseball and heat, and it is a fox news alert. a day at the beach ending in panic when a rare thunderstorm hits southern california, lightning striking venice beach killing a 20-year-old man and injuring more than a dozen other people. at least two victims were in the water during this lightning strike. witnesses recording as life guards pull one of the victims to shore. beach goers say the storm took them completely by surprise. >> all of a sudden there was a big flash of light, a boom and i felt like someone punched me in the back of the head. >> it sounded like a sonic boom. it literally shook the buildings. >> can you imagine that? that same storm hitting catalina island where a golfer was struck by lightning, expected to be okay. two americans helping to combat the outbreak of ebola in liberia have been infectd with that deadly disease. a volunteer from north carolina is the second
american to come down with that virus. she works at the same hospital where dr. kent brantley from texas also contracted the highly contagious disease. that ebola outbreak has spread to three african countries killing more than 670 people, roughly 62 pk of those infected with that disease. >> while you were sleeping the u.n. calling for an immediate and unconditional cease-fire between gaza and israel. the security council president calling for israel and hamas to accept this peace deal which doesn't mention israel's right to defend itself or asking hamas to stop firing rockets. this follows a weekend of brief lulls in fighting as violence raged on. more than 1,000 people have been killed in the 20-day war so far. do you remember this when three daredevils jumped off the building in manhattan last fall?
that's video of their stupid stunt. now their lawyer is proving he will go the extra mile for his clients literally. the attorney going skydiving with them for case research. he's making a 14,000 foot jump in new jersey saying he hopes it will help their case. the three men are facing several charges including felony dollary. those are your headlines. >> thank you very much. even though today is the first day of the work week, people on capitol hill are already looking towards thursday because that is when their august vacation begins, the summer break officially. you think to yourself, wait a minute, is this really time for them to go on vacation? after all, we've got an invasion on our southern border while both sides have talked about doing something about it, nobody has. >> a lot blame to go around so they say. actually one congressman out of louisiana says i'm
not going anywhere until we fix the problem and to double down on the fact this is the president's fault. >> the president has been awol from the beginning. the president has a lot of time on his schedule to secure fund-raisers but no time to secure the border. he has not taken his job seriously in this regard. the house is willing to lead. the president wants to sit back and play politics. he's flying around the country doing fund-raisers, he doesn't have time to sit down with congress. >> they have a highway trust fund. i don't know if anyone is going to extend it. we would like to find out about the export-import bank. there is money for the border. we'll see where it goes from there. speaking of immigration, let's talk about the illegal immigrants, many of which are children, that have come across our borders. where have they gone? where will they go? turns out according to one governor, they have come to
his state. he had no idea about it. >> we're talking about bill haslem, the republican governor of the great state of tennessee. they were at a governors meeting a couple of months ago and he specifically asked the secretary of health and human services sylvia burwell, if you're going to put any of these illegals in our state, let us know, will you? then he logs on to the h.h.s. website and discovers 760 of the kids have been released somewhere in tennessee, 30,000 all across the country. as it turns out, he didn't get a heads up even though he apparently was promised one. >> he actually went out to slam the president and those that he met with, with the warning that he requested unfulfilled saying this, quote, not only was our state not informed prior to any of the children being brought here, i still have not been contacted, have no information about these individuals or their sponsors other than what was posted on the h.h.s. website and subsequently reported by media.
some of the questions he's looking for answers to are how did the federal government locate these sponsors? what medical screenings were done for the juveniles that have crossed here and been poured into our state? what is the immigration state of the actual sponsors? how long are they going to remain in tennessee? all of this confusion entering chaos as we start a school season here. >> deval patrick had no idea illegals were being poured into massachusetts. we're trying to find out where these kids have gone, i think 30,000 have disappeared into the system. in terms of the actual compassion shown to the children, to the surprise of many, yesterday on fox news sunday chris wallace asked what about the illegals. listen. >> we have 3,141 counties in this country. that would be 20 per coant. the idea that we can't
assimilate these eight-year-old criminals with their teddy bears is preposterous. >> what george will is saying, make them americans but spread them around. you know what? i know one mayor of a big town here in the united states who'd love to take 1,000 of the illegals is chicago mayor rahm emanuel. he said over the weekend, go ahead, we will take 100 -- rather, we'll take 1,000 of the illegals and we're going to use the city's legal resources to help them. but, you know, do the kids really want to go to one of the most dangerous, most violent, crazy towns? america? you look at the number of shootings over the last weekend alone, over the weekend there were 23 shootings this weekend alone. 23. when you look at the number of shootings in chicago from mid-june to mid-july, it was 220. so he can say we'll take 1,000 kids, but is it safe in chicago right now? >> not only that but when
you take those that are most susceptible to entering into gang violence, chicago is at the helm of this. they asked for federal agents ten days ago. the federal government said they were going to provide additional efforts to deal with the battle violence going on in chicago adding to a total of 52 alcohol, tobacco and firearm agents that have been added to their situation there. why would you take young kids, teens, put them in a situation where they're susceptible to more gang violence or joining gangs particularly when we have a gang taking advantage of the border crisis right now. ms-13. and adding to the complexity here of this? >> and give them free tattoos as they join domestic gangs. here's the thing about rahm emanuel. if you're in chicago, how outraged are you? it is basically a failed state. then mayor emanuel wants to look magnanimous and compassionate by saying give me 500 or 1,000 kids
that i will prop up. if i'm a parent or single parent trying to meak -- make things work in chicago and i hear you're going to use state funds for this, i'd be outraged. >> i was reading one blog post from a very prominent blogger out there who said we get all these shootings here in this town, mr. president, and you're talking about spending millions and billions of do texas. come on. >> give every kid some kevlar and send them to school. >> or give them a driver. the president of the united states over the weekend while we've got things going on with gaza, the stuff with the ukraine, the president of the united states spent the weekend with tony cornheiser and the host of espn at a congressional country club in washington, d.c. >> why not? i don't know how many rounds of golf it's been. i'm a person who thinks look, you want to golf, that's fine if it helps you
clear your head, if it helps you take action, golf all you want. but it doesn't seem to be the case when it comes to the united states. former secretary of state madeleine albright says the world is a mess. somebody better wake up to it. >> there have been really two huge game changers, and one is putin's behavior vis-a-vis crimea and then now towards ukraine and a completely different kind of behavior by russia. the other is what is happening in the middle, a lot due to the awakening. these are huge game changers. there are an awful lot of things going on that need understanding and explanation. but to put it mildly, the world is a mess. >> she's also being very political. if you watch the whole interview, she said i have no problem with the president not engaged, golfing, going to fund-raisers. he has 81 rounds of golf in
628 since the 2012 election. >> seemingly aloof as those have said. >> looked what happened to libya over the weekend. we had to evacuate our embassy. what happened to that operation? we go in with the arab league and we go into some western allies and we just leave. there was no plan. it's chaos. >> she's right. things are a mess. matt lewis of the daily caller wrote a column in the telegraph overred weekend. he says the president of the united states checked out of his job, phoning it in, sleepwalking through the second term with golf and dinner parties. he's prematurely packing his bags. he's ready for an early departure. while the world is aflame, everything is a mess, to paraphrase what madeleine albright just said, is it time for the president of the united states to pack up the golf bag and put it down and maybe do his job for a couple of days, maybe turn some of this stuff around? or it's the summer.
he should be taking it easy. what do you think? e-mail us. you can also twitter. >> james carville says the president doesn't care about the polls, he's already looking at his place in history which is not good for us. >> maybe take a look at the changing global map that's occurring right now. >> meanwhile, straight ahead, a stroll on the beach turns into a deadly nightmare when a plane slams right into the sand out of nowhere. the latest on this freak accident. >> another home-grown american company forced to do business overseas thanks to insane corporate taxes. but some calling walgreens unpatriotic for their stance. stuart varney is here with more on that.

they're keeping most of their business inside the united states but they're basically renouncing their citizenship and declaring that they're based someplace else just to avoid paying their fair share. >> that's the president's big address over the weekend. here to explain is the host of varney and company, stuart varney. companies leaving the country, what are they thinking? >> the president, i think, is setting up business, setting up the republicans so that in the election in november he can say look at those people, they're taking their money overseas. they're unpatriotic, they're not doing the right thing, not doing their fair share. it is a setup so the president can look very good come the november elections. there are numerous corporations who want to leave america, put their headquarters, a couple of jobs, overseas so they can take advantage of lower tax rates over there compared to the sky-high rates over here. the president wants to put a fence around america, stop anybody leaving. that's what he wants to do. instead of encouraging them
to stay -- >> or going to congress and say lower the corporate taxes. >> he does not negotiate with congress. he doesn't deal with congress. he doesn't have friends on the other side of the aisle with whom he can get together and structure some kind of a deal. but the worst result of all of this is we've got $2.1 trillion of american corporate profits which are going to stay over there because if they come back over here, they lose 35% of the federal government. so he stays there. it doesn't do us any good here. >> let me put up a graphic. let me show you action ladies and gentlemen, where businesses are not putting their money. they're not putting them in the u.a.e. their tax rate is 55%. in the united states we're at 40. japan is 35 with angola and argentina. another graphic with recent big companies that have moved from the united states. bausch & lomb has gone to canada. jim bean has gone to japan. and chiquita banana has
gone to ireland. >> they buy a smaller company in order to move headquarters there. >> instead of admitting it is bad, the president is blaming consistent. >> stay here, pay up, pay your fair share. would you allow, for example, a company in illinois to move to texas to take advantage of lower taxes? of course we do. >> the whole thing, what is the goal of the corporation? to maximum profits and revenue. >> for shareholders. absolutely. >> varney and company 11 to 1. >> thank you. i'll be there. >> coming up, effective immediately, police in d.c. cannot arrest anyone for legally carrying a gun. the ruling that just logged a major win for the second amendment. >> this guy arrested for drunk driving on a lawn mower. ♪ i do a lot oresearch on angie's list

just for carrying a gun as long as the gun is legal. it is a shock wave through the city. >> absolutely. when you look at this narrowly tailored law that they have had on the books in washington -- and i used to live there. they've got a million gun control laws on the books, and yet there's so much gun crime, it is just ridiculous down there. but to look at the fact that they have tailored it so specifically and for the judge to come out and say that is patently unconstitutional, now people across the country are going maybe they're waking up there. >> they actually are. d.c. is the only place in the country that has a -- has now a total ban on the right to bear arms. that's pretty shocking when you talk about the constitution. illinois was the last state and last year they passed a law allowing for conceal carry. d.c. is the last place. now this judge said, judge skullin in the district court said it is unconstitutional. d.c. has to allow people it carry guns, whether open or
concealed. they have to be allowed to carry handguns. now he wrote, according to police last night, anyone who is a nond.c. resident can legally carry in d.c. and d.c. residents, if you have a registered gun like i do, i can carry. if you don't have a registered gun you can still be arrested on the unregistered gun law. >> you have a gun because, among other reasons, you were the victim of a home invasion but you couldn't have a gun back then. now you can have it going forward. i want to you react, emily, to what the d.c. council chairman put out a statement and said because of the district's unique national security concerns, the right to carry a firearm in public must be more heavily restricted than anyplace else in the nation. four u.s. presidents have been assassinated by gunfire and at least five others have been shot at including ronald reagan who was seriously wounded by mr. hinckley. your reaction? >> i would say we had this

weather was yesterday and that will problem help today. most airplanes will take extreme weather. they are built under f.a.a. certification, a very strict standard. >> they can take the heavy rain and absorb the lightning strikes? >> correct. if you're in the united states you know where that heavy rain is. you want to stay away from thunderstorms and that is probably what happened in algeria. you know where they are here in the united states because we have radar every place. not so in these other countries. >> i understand when it comes to turbulence, we can only predict turbulence? >> we have turbulence reports that come out of the national weather service every single day. before any pilot flies, whether a short trip or long one, they look at that because that will impact what the comfort of their passengers are. >> a lot of people get upset the plane is going to be late but they're delaying because of a flight. you're saying if you are a passenger, you can decide the weather doesn't feel right, i don't want to take the risk, i'm not getting on.
that is something we can decide to do, we all can't get our money back? >> that is true. that is up to the carrier whether they give you your money back or not. for the most part with domestic carriers you're going to fly in safe weather in safe conditions. their standards are higher than the f.a.a. makes them do. >> this is what i've lerpd over the last six months, number one, the flight pattern matters, the weather matters. i don't know if it is possible but i'd like to know what my pilots have been up to. you look at the malaysian pilots, is there any way we can do a background check on the pilot we're going to have? >> no simple way of doing that. we know for the most part the airlines do a pretty good job of weeding out bad eggs in their area. when we fly foreign airlines we don't know for sure we're up to the same standards as the united states. >> just to check out your carrier and know if it's domestic the odds are great that you're going to be

a new bill passed by congress now makes it legal for cell phone users to unlock their device, allowing them to be usedden other networks. how will this impact you? tech expert chris the cyber guy joining us live this morning. this is a big difference maker because when a phone is locked, can you explain that? >> good morning. yes. we're talking about you're about to get money back in your wallet. how? in the past, you have bought a phone maybe through a verizon store, at & t store and they would give you the phone with a deal and you have a certain term. at the end of that contract, if you wanted to go to another company, many times the phone could not be used anywhere else, meaning it was locked. now legislation passed on friday by congress and the president expected to sign it, will indeed put an end to all of that. it's absurd as this, imagine we buy a new car. it's ford, chevy, doesn't matter. and a part of buying that car, they say you can only get gas from the mobil station. how absurd and restricted would
that be? >> that's not freedom. >> mobil would realize that and say, let's jack up the price for curt and elisabeth when they come in for gas. >> when it comes to phone, that's what people have been dealing with, no competition in termination of prices and your hands are tied. >> less competition, exactly. and now you're going to have the choice. they can no longer tell you you can get gas at one station. you can get phone service with your cell phone anywhere you want. and when we travel abroad, we'll be able to use our phone with other services there that were restricted, and imagine this, tens of thousands of cell phones that would otherwise end up in the landfills are going to be able to stay alive. your phone, perfectly good, should be able to use another service. instead of us having to throw it out, we're going to be able to keep that. >> a new frontier here. >> mainly freedom of phone and saving money. >> apple is extracting information, has the capacity to
extract information from your phone and we didn't know this? >> we're talking about a forensic analyst who is really good with how the inside of a iphone works. apple has been keeping a secret. they haven't revealed to us, the 600 million iphone users, that, in fact, they have created a back door or a mechanism that circumvents them to get to your personal data. it doesn't mean they're exploiting it or doesn't mean the phone is not secure. it simply means there is something very suspicious here. >> can you opt out of this? >> you can not opt out of it. the only way out of it is to completely erase your phone, making it useless and you're then going to get it again probably when you plug in your phone to a trusted source. you're going to recreate that pairing to a trusted source which would allow access. what does this mean? no, there is no proof yet. but the nsa has used this back door to get your personal information.
but there is actually a process that law enforcement has to follow that apple has provided to them and this potentially could be one of those channels to fulfill a request for the government to look at information on your phone. should they have told us about it? >> i think so. is there more to this? they claim this is simply diagnostic tool mechanisms put in place. it's will for troubleshooting. >> why didn't they let everybody know if it was simply that? >> by the way, it's not just that. it actually has been looked at further and another analyst said no, no. this is not for diagnostics. this is personal data. so apple needs to come clean. >> we're going to stay on this. come back more. thanks. coming up, americans wish they voted for mitt romney. the brand-new poll that shows the state of the country. so now what? donald trump, top of the hour on that. and the gift you should never, ever buy for a wedding.

a day at the beach ends in panic and chaos when a rare thunderstorm hits southern california. lightning striking venice beach. do you know how crowded that is? that lightning killed a 20-year-old man and injured more than a dozen other people. at least two of the victims were in the water during the lightning strike. witnesses recording this as lifeguards pulled one person to show. beach goers say the storm took them completely by surprise. >> all of a sudden there is a big flash of light and a boom and it felt like someone punched me in the back of the head. >> it sounded like a sonic boom. it literally shook the building, shook us. >> that same storm hit catalina island where a golfer was struck by lightning. he's expected to be okay. two americans were helping combat an outbreak of the deadly ebola virus are now infected with the disease. a volunteer from north carolina is the second american to come
down with the virus. she works at the same hospital where dr. brantley from texas also contracted the highly contagious disease. that outbreak has spread to three west african countries, killing more than 670 people so far. it kills about 62% of those who are infected. here at home, real chaos in a keith urban concert. firefighters and security guards spent their night trying to corral some drunken country music fans. ♪ ♪ ambulances taking 22 people to the hospital in mansfield, massachusetts. about 50 others were arrested for intoxication. this happening at the infinity center. a former homeless man is turning to the president for some help with his college tuition. jesse granger is selling this letter he received from president obama in 2011 for $9,500. granger says he left home at 17,
but his late adopted mother always said to him that education is the most important thing. the president in the letter also talking about the importance of that. jesse says he hopes to use the money he gets from selling the letter to help him finish his degree at winthrop university. i believe that's in south carolina. those are your headlines. >> thank you very much. by the way, on line you can buy a wi-fi crock pot for $89. >> wow. maybe that's something that donald trump will put in his brand-new washington hotel. >> maybe. >> we could ask him. and i believe it's monday, which means it's donald trump time. welcome, mr. trump. >> good morning. >> let's talk about something that's still festering and that's the problem at our border. what's your take on what mayor rahm emanuel said, give me your illegals. we'll take them. >> there are pockets in chicago that are a cass taas strovey, all of the shootings. there are certain areas of
chicago. it's disgraceful. >> 23 over the weekend alone. >> yeah. it's disgraceful. but chicago is a place i happen to love. i think it's great. and they got a lot of problems. this is not the way that you're going to solve the problem. people are coming into the country. they have disease. they have lots of other situations going on and very interestingly, in many cases, they don't speak english and they don't speak spanish. they have indian dialect. we don't have anybody that can speak that language. it's languages that we don't know in this country and we're not equipped to handle. now we're supposed to educate everybody. this is madness. what's going on in this country is madness. >> it sure is. to add to the violence there, 23 shootings over the weekend, 220 reported in the summer there. we just are wondering how this is going to solve the problem and then we're hearing governors across the country are calling on the president to lead while this is happening, now that's
being dumped into the states. and these governors don't even know it. we just saw governor from tennessee who wrote a letter to the president saying not only was our state not informed prior to any of the children being brought here, says being contacted and has -- ice is being contacted and they have no information other than what's on the web site. he's saying we didn't even know they were here. 760 illegal minors are here now and we had no idea until we went on the web site for hhs? >> it is very sad. they're being spread all over the country. not only don't the governors know, nobody knows they're there. ultimately, you're never going to be able to get them back to where they're from. our country can't handle it. we can't do it. whether it's the problems of infectious diseases, in some cases, very, very infectious diseases. our country can't handle this. we have no country. we have no borders. we have no anything. so something has to take place.
it has to take place fast. they're being spread all over the country and they're never going to be returned. >> you know what? they're not telling anybody for the most part, mr. trump, in the localities because we know the dirty little secret, if you drop 1,000 kids into a state, come september, for example n new jersey, those 1,000 kids will end up going to school. who pays for that? the property owners of the state of new jersey. >> it really does seem like it cannot be this stupid. it just can't be this stupid. it must be a concerted effort to get these kids into the system, add them into the system. later on they'll become citizens and they'll vote democratic. this has to be some kind of a concerted effort by the president to let people come into the country because it's not that tough. somebody asked me, what would i do? i'd call mexico and say if you don't stop this from happening -- mexico is like the highway right into this country. and you can not get into mexico.
you can not become a citizen of mexico. you can not come into the country. but in this case, they're letting them walk right through mexico, right into our doorway and they want them out fast, by the way. get out fast. we have such power over mexico, we don't use it. >> we had a productive meeting with them last week, we heard. >> yeah, right. >> we have a marine there who has been in prison for a long, long time now and no power when it comes to getting his release. >> he's the only one from mexico that cannot get into our country. amazing thing. they're treating him badly. they're beating the hell out of him in prison. they're treating him badly. unlike our traitor, when we gave five killers, five real enemies of the state, bergdahl, unlike him, this guy was a very solid citizen as a soldier. so it's really crazy. but what we do is you stop it by telling mexico, we're not doing business with you anymore. we support mexico. we have so many companies in mexico. we give them tax advantages to
build companies in mexico. look, our country is getting to a point where tear not going to be able to come back. >> you look at our country. madeline albright said yesterday, you look around the world, things are a mess. you got the ukraine, gaza, the southern invasion. perhaps, mr. trump, that is why in a brand-new poll, americans wish essentially they would have elected mitt romney. brand-new poll out, if the election for two years ago were held today, mitt romney would win in a landslide essentially. of course, it's meaningless because they're not really voting for president again in 2014 for 2012. but it is indicative of the trouble that this president is in. >> the president is doing a terrible job. he's a terrible president. the country is going down. we're a laughing stock all over the world. you look at what's happened to the world under our watch. the whole world is exploding. whether it was the fact that we broke up iraq, which was one of the dumbest things ever.
you look at -- you know, whether you like saddam hussein or not, he used to kill terrorists. he would kill terrorists. there were very few of them in iraq. this is now a breeding ground. this is called the harvard of terrorism. go to iraq. you learn all about it. perhaps the fact that that all blew up it showed everyone else they could do the same thing. the world has never, ever been in a position like that. it's a tinderbox. one big tinderbox. the problem we have is weapons are getting more and more dangerous, more and more horrible and we've never had a thing like that before. and a lot of it's the power of the weaponry. >> also giving money to the palestinians to blow themselves up in israel and invading other nations and pretty much a menace of the middle east. but i got to bring something else kind of exciting. next to the white house for you, you broke ground with gold shovels. >> we're doing a fantastic job
giving lots of jobs. we're building at the old post office, which is the best location in washington, d.c., right smack in the middle of pennsylvania avenue, between the white house and congress. we have the most magnificent building in washington. truly one of the great buildings in washington. we're going to turn that into one of the great hotels of the world. we start construction on monday of next week. it's going to be very, very exciting. we had a ground breaking there. everybody was there. it's going to be a very exciting development. again, a lot of jobs are going to be used for building and for operating the hotel and it's going to be truly -- because of the infrastructure, because of what we're doing and we will have all of those things that you mentioned, and more. we'll have things they don't even know about. in that world, things are coming along so quickly, the world of the internet, that you don't even know about them now. including the wi-fi crock pot. >> the funny thing, in two years, 18 months when we open
that, will be obsolete. they'll have something else. >> 2016 is when it's supposed to open. >> it will open 2016. it will open june of 2016. i've always said sometime prior to november, but we should be able to do that -- november being a very important month. >> if you want, we'll supervise the construction. >> i understand. november being maybe the most important month in this country in many, many years, frankly. we are going to need somebody truly great to come in and run this country because we don't have that now. >> donald trump, who will have at least one address in washington, d.c. in 2016, we thank you for joining us live today on this monday. >> thank you very much. it's dozen minutes after the top of the hour. coming up, just days before a five-week recess, congress attempting a last-ditch effort to take action on our southern border. what's the holdup? the democrat who co-sponsored the bill is going to join us live coming up next.

the white house calling out congress for fail to go act on immigration before their five-week recess which begins this week at the end of this week. why isn't there more support for this bipartisan bill that's sitting on capitol hill right now? where is the white house on this crisis? let's ask democratic congressman henry cuellar, co-sponsor of the plan. welcome back. thanks as an american for taking the lead on this. first off, what are some of the things in your plan and then we'll get into why the white house says it doesn't measure up. what's in there? >> first of all, the main thing is we want to have a quicker hearing with all due process, with all legal protection, but instead of waiting two, three, four, five years for a hearing, we want to put this individual before a judge, a judge will make that decision whether that individual stays or goes. they can have an attorney if they want to bring an attorney. >> that's one. change the 2008 law, right, that was meant to stop sexual trafficking, but in turn has
been misinterpreted. you want to change that? >> that's correct. if you think about it, why is it that the smugglers -- they have found a loophole in the 2008 law. this law, what we want to do, do a very surgical change. every protection, all the due process is kept, except we eliminate a loophole in the 2008 that the smugglers have found a way to make millions and millions of dollars every month. >> dan pheiffer comes out and he says, the cornyn-cuellar plan does not meet white house standards of deferring might abrasion while protecting asylum. >> first of all, keep in mind that president obama brought this idea back in june 30 when he sent a letter saying i need money and i need a policy change. secretary johnson has been very, very good. he has said we need the resources and we need the policy
change of 2008. in fact, when i asked him about this proposal, he said, quote, henry, we're on the same page. so when the white house says it doesn't meet the standards, well, we're using the standards they suggested to us, and if they have a better idea, talk to us. >> exactly. exactly. if he wants to get something done. so you need money to speed up the process to get these kids back home where they belong. critics say it could be a dangerous situation. number two, a lot of democrats don't want to change this 2008 law and that's the main problem. >> you know, it's unfortunate. but i think we'll get more democrats. when the vote comes on the floor, we will get democrats. right now the only ones we have are blue dogs that -- some of the blue dogs have signed on. number two, is keep in mind that even hillary clinton has suggested -- she says she's open to the 2008 law 'cause she understands we have to have not only resources, but we have to
change that loophole and take the incentive out that the smugglers have taken advantage of. >> thanks so much. coming up straight ahead, spiderman unhinged. what caused this costume-clad thug to flip out on police in times square? we got to throw out elmo and everybody else. they're all clowns. and the "new york times" going full throttle on legalizing pot. would a move like this make drugs more accessible to our kids? we hear from a former drug czar next on the "new york times"'" controversial article. ♪ she's still the one for you. ♪

but would a move like this put drugs in the hands of more kids? former drug czar john walter joins us now from our dc bureau. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> so the "new york times" on the editorial page yesterday said it's time to repeal it. it's essentially been a prohibition. i'm gog read an excerpt. they write, it's been more than 40 years since congress passed the current ban on marijuana. inflicting great harm on society just to prohibit a substance far less dangerous than alcohol. the federal government should repeal a ban on marijuana. what do you say? >> pretty stupid. they act like they live on another planet. more people are in treatment for marijuana than all other illegal drugs combined. more kids, as teen-agers, are treated for marijuana than alcoholism. we're not keeping it out of the hands of kids and explode ago substance where we have alcohol and tobacco, which is the single biggest cause of illness and death that's preventible,
adding a third substance -- this is the way they treat environmental toxins. that's not the way they treat things that treat the health of america. all of the science, you covered it at fox, all the science, monthly, is showing more risk at a time when science is telling us one thing, the "new york times" wants to act like it's time to be ruled by cheech and chong. insane. >> it is insane. you're talking about the science. you have been on this program talking about the science. it is proven that pot makes you dumb. >> yeah. steady use, especially as you start as late teens, now can reduce i.q. by eight points, which is not just eight points. if you had normal i.q., you drop by a whole fifth and your capacity to compete. when we want to be competitive, we want to be good to our children, how do we lower their i.q. on a wide scale? to say you're going to keep this out of the hands of kids, look what's going on in denver. disaster. people cannot keep it out of the
hands of kids. it's being marketed to kids, in high potencies. people are scared. we're going to try to help them. but the administration is utterly irresponsible and it's just horrifying to the people who live there. >> regarding the experiment, the legal experiment that's going on out in colorado, during the commercial break we were talking about what's going on out there regarding the legal use of marijuana. you had a jaw-dropping statement regarding kids sending their kids to school are afraid of what? >> well, parents cannot send food or drink with their children. i met with some of the parents in suburban denver because of the concentrates, because of the things that can be put in food, being marketed in fruit juice, brownies, so kids cannot bring any food or drink to school -- a woman i met with, parent, all consumables at school have to be prepared under the supervision of school officials to prevent kids from being poisoned. why would we do this to our children? why to our community?
it doesn't stay contained. 40 states have been recipients by law enforcement cases of colorado-made marijuana. when your neighbor does this, you're doing it. so this is not an experiment. this is a wholesale failure to enforce the law by president obama. >> speaking of presidents, the president of our country met with the president of honduras over the last couple of days and the president of hon occur has came out and said, look, i have a very violent country. that's kind of his fault. but he also said, the united states is responsible for this crisis on your southern border because americans use too many of our drugs. what do you think about that? >> well, this is not cooperation. this is a failure to recognize responsibility, as you point out. this is a country that's riddled with corruption. i hope the new president will step up. the united states asked for extradition of key and bad actors there. they haven't done it. we've asked for the ratification of a treaty to help us with interdiction, they haven't done it. we've tried to provide aid -- i
do blame president obama for not being more aggressive, but you have to engage with a country that wants to help. we did this in colombia. cocaine is down over 50%. honduras needs help, but you have to have hondurans at the front line. >> john walter used to be the drug czar for george w. bush. thank you for joining us today. >> thanks. coming up, a soldier's kids and pregnant wife were kicked to the curb and their house demolished while he were deployed because of a building code violation? is that legal? a judge just ruled. and this burglar tried to make a grand exit, but failed. we'll tell you more about this crazy video as we roll on live from new york city. ♪ ♪

launches at israel, including one that landed in the city we're standing in, which is just north of the gaza border, didn't cause any damage or injuries, it has remained very calm compared to what we've seen over the last 21 days. possibly representative of this, let me show you something. in the distance, you'll see a group of tanks. those tanks last night were over the ridge right on the israel-gaza border firing into an area which has seen an intense amount of fighting and military activity over the course of the last 21 days. those tanks now have been pulled back several hundred yards and remain in a stand still position at this point. yesterday afternoon and evening we did see activity. we saw air strikes, explosions in the distance. we also saw artillery fire. israel remains committed to destroying hamas' infrastructure and network of cross-border
tunnels. israel has stipulated that even with a cease fire, it would continue with this operation which has been a main priority since day one of operation protective edge. we know that president obama did speak with israeli prime minister netanyahu, calling for an immediate cease fire, the u.n. as well. israel has said it would accept an egyptian brokered cease fire to allow more long-term negotiations. right now there has been no agreement on a cease fire. but as i said, it is calm for now along the border, a contrast to what we've seen the past 21 days. back to you. >> you never know when things will change. john huddy, stand by out there for the very latest. the egyptians are blowing up more tunnels they found and they're being rearmed by guess who. north korea, the whole axis of evil still out there. >> we had heard that there was a shortage of building supplies for the palestinians. turns out they were building tunnels. >> right.

network. to compare to the civil rights movement seems insulting. >> it really is insulting. it's beyond the pale. it insults almost everybody. obviously it would insult anybody involved in a civil rights movement and also the workers because essentially i guess what you're saying to these workers is you were born this way and this position where you can never better yourself, you can never get an education, you can never work otherwise, you can never pool your money and start a business. you are stuck in this because somehow you were born with deficiencies that you'll only have a certain skill set. the minimum skill set. so at the very least, what we can do, because we're so nice and we are the union after all, we'll find a way to at least get you more money because obviously you're stuck because you were born in this situation. >> we're determined to win for our children and ourselves. together we're going to build a better future. we're ready to engage in nonviolent action to make larger corporations hear us. we stand on the shoulders of movements that have transformed
america. >> it's again, extraordinarily insulting and what about the small businesses that are out there? most restaurants fail. most restaurants don't work. they go out of business. they work on very thin margins. most people lose money. they have the proceeds pentecost of a 50% chance of not making it. on top of that, we're getting these ideas now, part-time workers should have certain rights. union workers. these restaurant workers and minimum wage workers, somehow their civil rights are being -- >> trampled on. >> yeah. whatever happened to the country that talked about the maximum? like sky is the limit. we are quibbling over things where it's really about creating divisiveness. it's not economic solution to anything. by the way, it still would be the minimum wage. i think people out there want to think about maximum. >> what do those numbers mean? >> here are the states that increased minimum wage, hawaii, maryland, massachusetts, vermont, connecticut,
washington, d.c. >> well, you're talking $15. most people watching this show, their haul househead median income is the same as 1989. you're talking about doubling the salary for the lowest skill sets out there. you're talking about really encouraging people or enabling people not to better themselves. hey, why should i go to college at night if i'm going to get a raise from 7 to $15? if this becomes a civil rights issue and i can always go and demand more, what we're really talking about, and i say this all the time. there are people in this country trying to create a utopian welfare society. it's very expensive and they've got to attack corporate balance sheets. watch me 6:00 p.m. every night on the "fox business" network. >> he's making money. thank you. >> we got him up early just for us. straight ahead on this show, stressed about what gift to buy for the next wedding? >> that. >> i'll go all day. place settings, candle sticks,

89 house laid out -- the house laid out what we'll do to solve this problem. the president wants to sit back and play politics. he's flying around the country doing fund-raisers. he doesn't have time to come and work with congress. >> the house can pass something, but without the senate, nothing. >> yeah. that's true. i think chris wallace pressed congressman scalise whether they would extend and not take their vacation and he wouldn't get there. the hope is that they can come to some deal on this supplemental and it will be much scaled down money wise. but the main thing is change the language as we've talked about of the 2008 law that would enable them to speed up the deportation process for the central american kids. that could happen this week before the end of the week. you're right, five weeks recess. that's not a bad deal. >> they're going to get a v.a. deal, on paper it seems like it's a bipartisan agreement. they also have to come up with some type of funding on the
highway bill. when it comes to this 2008 bill, it's democrats who don't want to change it. republicans are in to changing that, which is kind of odd this time. >> yeah, it is. especially since the administration at first came out and said they were open to and wanted to see that law changed, the specific law and the wording. so there is this pushback. the thought is that they can get around it. they can get through it before the end of the week. if they don't, the question then will be to congressman scalise and others, are you going to stick around? are you going to wait until it gets resolved? >> george wills said this when it comes to deportation. >> we have 3141 counties in this country. that would be 20 per county. the idea we can't assimilate these eight-year-old criminals with their teddy bears is preposterous. >> so that's something you don't hear from many conservatives on television, bret. he is suggesting with these kids, don't deport them. make them americans.
just spread them around. >> yeah. you do hear that from some. brit hume has said something similar. and others. but i guess there are a lot of people, especially along the border towns, that want to know where the line is drawn. they want to know where the end of that is and they also want to know that the line that's established of people who are in line to get citizenship is respected. >> what about governors aren't even prepared to have this happen. they're finding out on line that 760 in the case of tennessee, the governor there found out that there were 760 of these kids dumped there unbeknownst to him. this is the governor there, not only was our state not informed prior to any of the children being brought there, still not been contacted and have no information about these individuals or their sponsors other than what was posted on the hhs web site and subsequently reported in the media. they're being caught offguard. they don't know if the kids had their immunization, if their sponsors have been legal with
paperwork. they have no information and he has 760 kids there. over 30,000 of these children this year alone have been placed into the hands of states from the federal government. what is going to be done? >> this is the most amazing part of this story, that this is not getting more outrage, more coverage. this isn't just republican governors speaking out. there are democratic governors in similar situations finding out that there are kids being transferred to their state and they didn't know about it. and originally when asked about this, the white house press secretary, josh earnest said it was a matter of privacy for those children. >> yeah. >> for the central american kids. >> whoever they are. >> that really was spell binding because -- >> it's not true. >> it's not true and we care about their rights more than the rights of americans. i'm curious to see if the president will wait for vacation and start issuing executive orders addressing it the way he wants. speaking of the president, what did you think of this poll out
when americans were asked, who would they vote for if the vote was today. romney gets 53%. the president, 48. president romney hasn't had to make a decision in two years. president obama has made a few. that has a lot to do with it. that surprise you? >> no. the president's approval rating has taken a dive, as you've seen all these things around the world. you've seen a lot of sound bites about how mitt romney said that russia was the number one geopolitical foe in the wake of the russian ukraine situation. you've seen a lot of looking back. you're right. mitt romney is not making decisions day-to-day. but it's still an interesting poll if you look at all the things that have been said about that race since then. >> hillary beats mitt romney head to head in the same poll. >> yeah. not surprising either. despite a little bump in the road with the book launch has managed to hold up her favorability rating. >> but it does show you the
voter dissatisfaction with our current president. meanwhile, i want you to listen to -- here is hillary clinton talking about george w. bush and how he made her proud to be an american. >> george w. bush is very popular in sub saharan africa. why? because of the president's emergency program for aids relief. whether you agree or disagree with a lot of what else he did and i disagree with a lot of it, i am proud to be an american when i go to sub saharan africa and people say, i want to thank president bush and the united states for helping us fight hiv aids. >> she makes a good point. george bush did a lot regarding hiv aids in africa. but what's going on there? is she, a, proud to be an american because of george bush, or b, trying to distance herself from her former works barak obama? >> i think it's a combination. you have to take her at her word. there were a lot of democrats
who praised the efforts of president bush in africa and what was done there, a lot of people don't even remember. changed the entire perspective of the u.s. in africa. you have bono and others who have spoken out about president bush's efforts throughout that. it often gets overlooked. too, she is on this crusade to say america needs o do a better job around the world of talking about itself and promoting its own values and in essence, criticizing the current administration for not doing that and making the wrong decisions again and again. so it is a subtle dig, but probably warranted praise that she talked about before. >> perhaps a strategic reachout as some describe president obama's methods as retreat from the globe. >> bret, we're going to be watching you ten hours from right now. have a great day. >> we'll see you later. heather nauert is here. you have some headlines. >> good morning. there is wild weather all across
the country. particularly california. a day at the beach ending in panic and chaos when a rare thunderstorm hits southern california. lightning striking venice beach, killing a 20-year-old man and injuring more than a dozen others. at least two victims were in the water during this strike. witnesses recording it as lifeguards pull one person to shore. beach goers say the storm took them completely by surprise. >> it was an incredibly loud flash, like a bomb went off. >> people that were just frightened for their lives. people running. people looking up in the air. really scary. >> that same storm hit catalina island where a golfer was struck by lightning and is expected to be okay. a freak accident on a florida beach leaves a father dead and his daughter in critical condition this morning. a single engine plane was forced to make an emergency landing on a beach in sarasota. that's when 36-year-old man and his nine-year-old daughter who were just out for a walk were
hit by that airplane, stunned witnesses immediately called police. >> nothing you see every day, that's for sure. i was not expecting to come to the beach and see a plane on the ground. they were performing cpr on him. he had blood on his face. it looked like he wasn't breathing at all. >> he was pronounced dead at the scene. his daughter is hanging on for life at the hospital this morning. another woman reportedly suffered a heart attack after she witnessed that incident. the pilot and passenger on board that plane are both uninjured. the ntsb is investigating the cause of that crash. do you remember when those three daredevils jumped off the new world trade center building in manhattan last fall? okay. now their lawyer has a stunt of his own. he's doing this for his clients. he jumped out of a plane with them. the attorney and them going sky
diving for research, making the jump in new jersey, saying he hopes it will help their cause. the suspects face several charges, including felony burglary. and listen to this one, parents and teen-agers, this is exactly why you should never sleep with your cell phone. a texas teen-ager woke up after she smelled something burning. it turns out it was her samsung galaxy s 4. it was on fire and it was underneath her pillow. >> i didn't think much of it. i went back to sleep and then i woke up again, it was more prominent. >> we have a reasonable expectation that the products we buy will be safe. >> the girl's dad says he suspects the phone overheated and that caused the battery to swell and start on fire. a spokesperson for samsung says their products are safe and pointed out that the battery inside that phone was one of those replace ams and not a part of the original unit. by the way, important to read the fine print on these things.
apparently samsung says do not cover these with any bedding or heavy -- >> she had it under her pillow! >> now we know. >> i have never read a warning, ever. >> i know. >> now we know not to do that. >> i'm always using electrical devices in the bathtub. never read the warning. think the invasion of illegals coming into our country just hits border states? think again. the sheriff who has been fighting this for years and is even on a cartel's hit list joins us live next. >> that's a list you don't want to be on. and here is what not to do if you ever encounter a crocodile. don't really know what he was thinking. we'll try to find out. >> ♪

here. if they do pass or fail, it's within a 50 vet or 200 vote radius. >> if you don't get the extra money, but you have the extra kids who are illegal immigrants, illegal alien, then every kid in ohio gets less? >> every kid gets less. imagine being in a school and you have a classroom with 25 or 30 students, then you have an interpreter for each one of these kids that are sitting -- can you imagine the disruption when the teacher, the professor is doing the instruction, the interpreter has to do the interpretation. who pays for that? that comes out of these school systems. i talked to the school people that work in these schools off the record. they said it's a total disruption. it comes out of the money that they don't have and it's killing our system here. >> sheriff, you've been speaking out for a while. hopefully people will begin to listen because we're at a crisis point and from the schools to the gangs, it all comes back on your desk.

but really they are panhandlers. >> reporter: they exactly are panhandlers, good morning, steve and everyone. it's a big problem here in times square. let me set the scene for you. 2:00 o'clock on a saturday afternoon, perhaps one of the busiest times in to be in times square, a tourist tried to take a picture with spiderman, when the parents gave a tip, he said i just take fives, tens and 20s. a local police officer went and intervened and what ensued was an all-out brawl. that's the video you're looking at right now. spiderman punched this cop in the face multiple times before the cop was able to get him under control. spiderman went to jail. the cop went to the hospital to be treated for his injuries. and just to add to this story, when spiderman went to jail, some of his friends went to visit him, like the black naked cowboy. he too was booked on cocaine possession. a huge problem here in the local city council is trying to get some laws in place to regulate these characters. but they don't think there is much that can be done. that's the latest from times

a very special guest made her debut on the house floor this week. >> here is abigail rose butler. >> if you look closely, you can see one-year-old abigail rose in the arms of her mom, congresswoman jamie butler.
lawmakers applauding the miracle of that little girl's life because when butler was pregnant, she and her husband were told abigail would not survive. abigail suffering from potter's syndrome. she had no kidneys. she was told to terminate her pregnancy of the unwilling to do that and after prayers and experimental treatment, abigail was born and now she is thriving and she joins us now with her parents, congresswoman jamie butler and dan butler. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> she's starting to talk, sorry about that. >> we don't mind that here at all. that voice is a miracle voice. you can talk any time you would like. we hear your story and it was such a joy to see the applause there on capitol hill for you, your family and your decision. what did the doctors tell you that day in the ultrasound room? >> they told us that with 100% certainty she would not survive. they said 100% fatal.
no baby has ever survived this. she will die. and it was terrifying 'cause they said it -- she would either miscarry or if we happened to give birth and she made it that far, she would suffocate because of her lack of lung development, because of the lack of kidneys. as you can see, even well-meaning doctors don't always know. only god knows the end. because now we see abigail. see her smile. she's gorgeous. so remarkable is the sight right here. dan, when you hear that from a physician, that this is 100% not going to work out well for you guys, not going to work out well for abigail, she was going to die. when you hear that, you decided to do what? >> well, it took us kind of 24 hours of reeling and regaining our feet, but we decided -- we felt the lord calling us to be parents right away. not to wait 'til she's born, but
to begin fighting for her and advocating for her. so that's what we did. we were really grateful to be put in touch with a doctor who was willing to give her a chance. >> and try something experimental. >> that spermal team, can you -- that experimental treatment, can you explain that? >> it's very basic. it's not a high-tech treatment. it's back of saline water and a needle. >> very long needle. >> it's like a reverse am nio. but basically she would take a needle and put fluid into the womb because that was the problem, without kidney, there is no amniotic fluid. then her lungs won't grow. she put the fluid in once a week and we would watch abigail grow in the ultrasound each week. her feet were originally clubbed. we watched them unclub. her lungs grew and you can see she's happy and healthy. >> she's got a great smile. now is her treatment continuing and how is she today?
she looks great. >> she's great. she's a happy, healthy, growing little baby. one of her doctors said she's a happy baby who happens to not have kidneys. she's on dialysis every night. hopefully when she gets bigger, she'll be able to get a kidney transplant and things will be even better. >> dad said that modestly. dodd volunteered to give her one of his kidneys. we're both a match, but dad wants to be the one to do it. >> wow. >> we're just growing her. >> you've got a good mommy and daddy there. congresswoman dan, we thank you for joining us and sharing the miracle that is abigail rose with us. we love you, abigail. so thankful. >> thank you. >> amazing. still ahead, peyton manning takes a tough hit behind the line of scrimmage from his own kids, you see had here and you've got to see this cute video. next, the big tackle ir is perfe.

high-risk patients more than lipitor. bad cholesterol... you're going down! yeah! lowering cholesterol is a big deal, especially if you have high cholesterol plus any of these risk factors, because you could be at increased risk for plaque buildup in your arteries over time. so, when diet and exercise aren't enough to lower cholesterol, adding crestor can help. i'm down with crestor! crestor is not right for everyone, like people with liver disease or women who are nursing, pregnant, or may become pregnant. tell your doctor about other medicines you're taking. call your doctor right away if you have muscle pain or weakness, feel unusually tired; have loss of appetite, upper belly pain, dark urine or yellowing of skin or eyes. these could be signs of rare but serious side effects. are you down with crestor!? ask your doctor if crestor could help you. if you can't afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help.
each time at the end of the show kind of, we try to get one story and give you one story for the road. so peyton manning watt out of football for a year and a half. when he comes to practice for the denver broncos, you're not supposed to hurt him. this time his own kid sacked him in practice. that's a no-no, for the 40-year-old. >> look at this. colts kicker signs a baby girl at training camp. >> he signed the whole girl? >> right on the onesy. >> meanwhile, they did some research. here is a reason you should stop shaking hands. researchers in the u.k. discovered that hand shakes are the germiest way to salute somebody. a little cleaner would be the high five. but the best way to do it, the
fist bump. ladies and gentlemen, as we leave today, let's all fist pump. very nice. >> so clean. >> donald donald was ahead of his time. he said that years ago. >> he did. >> thank you for joining us today. we'll see you back here tomorrow. >> watch the zoom out.
welcome back, everybody, to moore, oklahoma, as we come back to visit what it means for this town one year later after that devastating tornado where 24 people lost their lives as we drill down to talk people lost their lives. as we drill down the talk of some of the figures, nearly 175,000 tons of debris has been hauled away. as you see plaza towers behind me, this school is to reopen coming in the fall. the healing continues here in moore, oklahoma. that's it for "way too early." "morning joe" starts right now. ♪ if we exceed the 14-day measure for scheduling appointments, he says, the front office gets upset. he outlined a way to get around it. when patients called for an appointment, they were not booked into the computer until an appointment came up 14 days after the day.
that way you're off the bad boys list. >> any incident like this makes me mad as hell. >> your mad as hell face looks a lot like your oh, we're out of orange juice face. maybe you can take a page out of australian describing dog interaction guy. >> they came bounding over. >> now that guy gets things done! >> good morning. it is tuesday, may 20th. another pretty day in new york city. welcome to "morning joe." with us on set, we have msnbc contributor mike barnicle. good morning. you look nice today. >> thank you very much. >> analyst steve rattner. i like the suit. >> thank you. >> in washington, associate editor of "washington post" and msnbc political analyst eugene robinson. willie's here too and i can't
wait for a good talk with dad. >> bill geist is going to be here in the next hour. >> oh, my gosh, willie. this is going to be great. i've taken a brief look at it because i got a sneak peek over the weekend. >> yeah. we slipped you one. we'll talk about it later on. it's me and my dad having awkward conversations. >> your dad, longtime cbs correspondent. apple did not fall far. >> good writer too. >> we have a lot to get to today. we have a scene for you to show you right now. that's one year ago today. as a massive tornado ripped through the town of moore, oklahoma. the f-5 twister left a path of destruction that few towns have ever seen before. we were there the day after last year to witness that devastation. and thomas roberts is back there with how the community is doing one year later. we'll hear from him coming up. plus this is how the new york
city tabloids covered mayor de blasio's wife's interview with new york magazine. huh? did she say that? >> not at all. >> i didn't think she said that. she said something that was brave and most women think. and true. exactly. we're going to have that story coming up. the mayor's reaction as well. but we begin with a big day for the battle to control the senate. voters will decide which candidates head to the election in key battleground states. mitch mcconnell looks confident against matt bevin. but his democrat alison lundergan grimes who's poised to present a tougher task. she came out swinging at a rally in louisville. >> i am a kentucky woman who my republican colleagues have so generally referred to as an empty dress that seeks to retire
mitch mcconnell. mitch mcconnell fails to realize that it's labor that has lifted millions out of poverty. as he says no to collective bargaining. as he says no to prevailing wage. you will have someone in the united states senate who says right to work for less is just another name for union busting and i will have none of it. >> okay. for mcconnell, it's not just about keeping his seat in the senate. he's eyeing the role of majority leader should republicans take control. >> there's only one thing we can do about it in 2014. in 2014 you can change the united states senate, make me the offensive coordinator instead of the defensive coordinator. >> very different tone there. gop candidates need six seats to shift the power. >> i say for you women in our
room, you'll love our republican in oregon. she's a female pediatric neurosurgeon whose slogan is, change your senator not your doctor. >> i guess that's opposed to she's a male. >> i think that might be just -- the word seemed awkward to me. >> he's an awkward guy. >> okay. so female webby, however, has faced a bruising end to the campaign with newly disclosed accusations she harassed her ex-husband during their divorce in 2007. he called the police and claimed he pulled his hair, slapped him, and threw items at him. another man, a former boyfriend accused webby of stalking him last year. if she wins today, she'll go on to face democrat jeff merkley. male willie, take over.
>> thank you, female mika. that's quite a dump at the end of the campaign. we'll see how it plays out. let's go to, eugene robinson, about kentucky. what kind of race does this shape up to be? this is as tough as mcconnell has been challenged right now. but as you look at that poll, he's locked and worried about grimes. >> all the polls show this is a close race in november. alison grimes from that clip is a formidable candidate. she's, you know, a female candidate as mitch mcconnell pointed out. he's a crafty politician. he knows kentucky. he's got a lot of strings to pull. but he's in a really tough race and it's a funny state, you know? basically as solid red state,
but it could elect a democrat. it's not beyond the realm of possibilities. so this could be the fight of his -- of this phase of his political life. >> if memory serves me correctly, i think there's a poll within the past six or seven weeks that showed senator mcconnell's internals were highly negative against him among republicans which was kind of an interesting dynamic. and i don't know whether his opponents seeming strength would account for the fact that suddenly after all of these years steve rattner, he seems to be traveling with his wife more often than not. >> yeah. his wife is a very formidable character. she served in bush's cabinet as a secretary of labor and a force of nature. i think gives him a personality that may not always be present in his absence. so he's bringing a female. >> all right. well, speaking of females -- my
god. i mean, it's not like we're talking about your horses or something. it's ridiculous. did mitch mcconnell say female? >> yeah. >> can someone send him a note? seriously. >> you. >> i don't think he wants one from me. speaking of females, new york city mayor bill de blasio is defending his wife following a magazine profile where she discussed her struggles as a new mom. in an interview with new york magazine, she spoke about the challenges of balancing a career with the responsibilities of being a mother. she says about her daughter in part, i was 40 years old. i had a life. the truth is i could not spend every day with her. i didn't want to do that. i looked for all kinds of reasons not to do it. it took a long time for me to get into, i'm taking care of kids, and what that means. the tabloids pounced. "the daily news" says the first lady, quote, didn't want to be a
mom. and the new york post said i was a bad mom. mayor de blasio was not happy. he called on the papers to apologize. >> i think it was inappropriate. it really suggests a tremendous misunderstanding of what it is to be a parent, what it is to be a mother. i think a lot of women are offended. a lot of hard working women in this city are offended. i think post the post and "the daily news" owes her an apology for misrepresenting what she said and for caricaturing a reality that i think so many women face. >> so i read the article. first of all, that part of it is this much in an article this big. it was much to do about her life as an advocate, as a ground breaker, as wife of a politician, but also a partner
who has a career in his own right and ideas in her own right and hopes and thoughts for her future in her own right. i found the headlines to be stunning. is anyone -- >> what century is this that we're in all of a sudden? i mean, we have this this week. all last week we were talking about jill abramson, you know mitch mcconnell uses "female" in that odd way. i mean, did i miss something? did we just go back, like, a hundred years? what has happened? >> "the new york post" went back. they decided to take a short part of an article, twist it around and put it on the front page. because they're after this mayor, shall we say. >> i wonder what's behind that. >> first of all, bill de blasio ought not use the word "inappropriate." it's the most overworked word in the english language today.
it was offensive to any young mother with children. i mean, you automatically, you can't help the feeling am i going to be handcuffed to the house the rest of my life. you love your child. you're going to care for your child. but it's okay to have those feelings. >> i will say that she says what so many women feel. i felt it, absolutely. and the guilt that she talks about, lived with every day. it starts to steam roll into something worse because you really feel pressured between what society thinks you should be which is completely in love with your kids 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. something is that is not applied to a man. and if you feel that way, is there something wrong with you as a woman? because i didn't feel that way. >> but you are in love with your children 24/7 you're just exhausted because your husband isn't there. >> all she was saying was she worked since she was 14 years
old. that she knew how to do. what she didn't know how to do was be tied to the house running around after toddlers and almost being hostage to them. >> i think maybe you'd agree to this especially with your first child. your entire focus has been you and your career and goals and all these things in your life. then this person shows up and you love them more than you've loved anything in your life, but it's an adjustment. that's all she was talking about. i don't think we should be surprise. ed it's on the cover of these papers. that's what they're in the business of being provocative. but this went too far. >> i feel she broke the taboo of what women feel by they're not allowed to say. >> some will say it but they aren't married to a new york mayor. >> this is true. it will be interesting. we're going to talk to the author of new york magazine profile coming up on "morning joe." we're going to have a more broad conversation, bring other names and faces to the table as well.
speaking of offensive comments, the nba is officially moving forward with plans to strip donald sterling of his ownership of the los angeles clippers. he is accused of actions that continues to hurt the nba. the disgraced owner has until may 27th to respond to the charges. his lawyer has requested a three-month delay which is unlikely to happen. sterling will have the opportunity to make his case to fellow owners at a hearing on june 3rd. if 3/4 of the owners vote to uphold the charges, sterling will be forced to sell the clippers. as he should. >> so steve, donald sterling's argument is you cannot just strip a person of their property at will. there has to be a case. we all knew this was coming. he was going to sue back and fight. but there's no way that come opening night in october that donald sterling is owning the
clippers. you've had players like lebron james saying if he own this clippers, i will not play next season. there's going to be a big fight along the way. >> i think one thing about this that hasn't really come out and i think i'm right in saying this, there's a tax fight involved in this whole thing. because he bought that team for nothing. if he dies with that as part of his estate, he gets a step up in basis. and he avoids paying a couple million dollars on that because of the way the team is sold. he's not a well man, as also been reported. i think there's a little bit of a substance text here i need this in my estate because it's going to cost me a lot of money if i die first. the contract between the nba and the owners seems clear. there's other businesses where you can lose your license, lose your franchise, lose your rights if you're part of an organization and you've agreed to abide by its rules. >> it's been reprehensible for
so long. just get it over with. moving on, it was one of the most devastating tornadoes in american history. 24 dead, 400 hurt. and the town of moore, oklahoma, leveled. "morning joe" is on the scene just hours after the storm hit. and thomas roberts has made his way back there. >> mika, good morning to you. good morning, everyone. it was a year ago that we all made our way here and it was amazing to come back yesterday to see exactly how far moore, oklahoma, has progressed in 12 months' time. if we look at some of the numbers, 175,000 tons of debris has been removed over the year. we can see certain lots that have been leveled and the slow start of rebuilding. but it is amazing to think for 39 minutes last year, an ef-5 tornado touched down destroying moore. >> it was pretty scary. everybody was rushing everybody. and then i came out and i saw the cars and i saw the houses and i just started crying so
hard. >> reporter: "morning joe" traveled to the scene of the devastation just hours a the storm hit. the images were hard to comprehend. >> the scene behind us, it's like from a post-apocalyptic movie. >> it's hard to wrap your mind around what you're seeing. >> what you're seeing is a neighborhood behind us that's no longer standing. >> it was house, house, house, house. all that's left is foundations pip keep getting overwhelmed by these sights. this was a little girl's room. you see the clothes still hanging. >> reporter: the tornado was a mile high at its base kicking up clouds of debris that stretch two miles wide. winds at 200 miles per hour. the hospital became a symbolic image of the destruction throughout the neighborhood. and it was the last day of class as the plaza towers elementary school. >> we had to sit like this and
the tornado started knocking on the ceilings, go up and down. and a light went down and it hit me in the head. and all the other girls were screaming and they were crying. >> i had to hold onto the wall to keep myself safe, because i didn't want to fly away in the tornado. >> it was coming, it was hitting, and everybody said put your heads down, put your heads down. some people got hurt. >> reporter: while the trauma of the event is so clear in the voices of the children, the stories of survival went beyond the young. >> we had to pull a car out of the front hallway off a teacher. i don't know what that lady's name is, but she had three little kids underneath her. good job, teach. it ripped our house up. there's a little girl buried there. >> reporter: it was on the ground for nearly 40 minutes leaving thousands homeless. the winds were strong enough to rip the bark off trees. families did whatever they could to find shelter.

course frightened children who will need our continued love and attention. there are empty spaces where there used to be living rooms and bedrooms and classrooms. and in time, we're going to need to refill those spaces with love and laughter and community. >> reporter: last month moore became the first city in the country to adopt rules specifically aimed at preventing extensive tornado damage with tough new residential building codes. it's now going to require new homes to withstand winds up to 135 miles per hour. but again, let's just remind everybody. the winds sustained here were over 200 miles an hour. and behind me this is plaza towers elementary school. they are in the process of rebuilding the school to open in the fall. you'll recall when we were here, this is the elementary school that had seven children die while trying to survive the storm. there was also another elementary school that was damaged, but they didn't lose any of their students.

'99. that went to the north side of moore. then the last year one was on the south side of moore. the pictures looks like joplin, like tuscaloosa, and other bad sites. we do have a chance of seeing strong thunderstorms today. later this afternoon into areas of cedar rapids. we do not think this will be tornadoes. but if you're in chicago, indianapolis, ft. wayne, all the way down to indianapolis and columbus. a line of strong storms with damaging winds heading your way. a lot of power outages expected with that. thankfully we've had a quiet, knock on wood, tornado season in oklahoma. they had the el reno tornado that was an ef-5 a couple weeks after this one. they've only had five tornadoes up to this point in oklahoma all year long. typically they average about 55. we're at a nice, slow pace. and they deserve it after what they went through last year there in moore. more on "morning joe" coming up.

cia says they will no longer use vaccinations for spying. in 2011 a doctor offered vaccinations in pakistan if as cover for the cia to obtain dna at the compound where osama bin laden was eventually killed. this comes as protests have resulted in 56 deaths in the country over the last two years. >> "the new york times." flood danger persists in serbia. the worst in 120 years. closing in near their capital. hundreds of thousands of people are without electricity and thousands more have been evacuated. it's left some towns under water. >> "the wall street journal," credit suisse will pay nearly $3 billion fine. it's the largest financial institution to ever enter a guilty plea. that's in the last 20 years at least.
the bank helped clients avoid paying u.s. taxes by creating secret offshore accounts. it sets a template for how the u.s. may respond. what's going on here? >> it's incredible. they literally would send their bankers into the u.s. on tourist visas meeting secretly with americans to help them avoid u.s. taxes. now they're going to plead guilty. they're going to pay a $2.6 billion fine, but the next day they'll go to business as usual. >> the same thing will happen again? >> probably not for awhile. but if you're an individual and get caught up in this, you might go to jail like one guy did the other day. you might be barred from something the rest of your life. credit suisse is allowed to go about their business like nothing happened. >> why is that? >> it's corollary to too big to fail. no government wants to be secreted for putting down a bank
that big. >> what's going to happen to the house? >> nothing. eight employees have left the bank, others will be required to leave the bank. but the ceo of the bank who's an american actually, but this goes back a long time before his watch. so it gets complicated, stays in place. >> is this going on elsewhere or is this a credit suisse? >> you possibly believe it could be going on elsewhere? i can't imagine. the famous swiss bank accounts we've heard over the year, they truly existed. >> looks like the u.s. government is moving on those now. let's go to playbook for a look inside politico's playbook. editor in chief john harris. >> good morning. >> so democrats fighting to keep the senate majority as we know in the midterm elections. politico reporting that one key democrat is not invested in the fight at least not as much as some democrats would like him to be. who is it? >> that man is barack obama who's got more at stake than any other person in the midterm
elections. reviving his presidency depends a lot on preventing republicans from take over the senate. but there's frustration among a lot of democrats that my colleague talked to which is that they feel the president's not engaged with coming up with a coordinated democratic strategy. he's busy raising money which is a big thing that helps, but he doesn't seem personally invested in the strategy. had in-person briefings with bill clinton, gone up to new york to talk to the former president. hasn't had an equivalent of that with obama himself. >> how unusual is that? would a president usually be more engaged at this point about six months out from election day? >> a lot of democrats say now is the time. they do feel, yes, that now is the time where they want to be -- they want some tangible evidence that the president himself is prepared to invest his personal credibility in carrying some of these democrats over the line. and so, you know, presidents are
political to different degrees. clearly bill clinton at an equivalent stage would have been more heavily involved than barack obama himself is. >> john, this lel of engagement or lack of engagement from the president, is it drastically different than any? >> president obama gets engaged when he himself is on the ballot, doesn't care that much, some say. the white house says that's unfair and point to signs as evidence that the president is really invested in these races. but another big problem that isaac points out in this piece is that the messaging has not really worked. the minimum wage and income inequality, we heard so much from the white house months ago. but it's not doing much. it's not helping them with middle class voters. it sounds like a more traditional kind of help the poor message. consequently we've seen that
less used out there. >> another story, john. interesting bit of news popping up yesterday. former democratic senator from a key swing state hinting he may consider running for something in 2016. who is it and what's he thinking? >> sure, willie. you remember jim webb who was representing the senate from virginia. i tell you what, i have my ear cocked pretty well to sort of presidential rumblings in this job. i hadn't heard any too to date but there are some in webb's own mind. he's out pressing a memoir he's written. in the course of that he's said i would consider running for president 2016. that doesn't seem like real possibility unless a certain democrat chooses not to run. in which case the door would be wide open. jim webb has been an interesting guy as long as he's been in public life. i think there would be a lot of people who'd find this intriguing. >> he's going to be on "morning

♪ time now for the must-read opinion pages. i just want to point to something in "the wall street journal" greater new york section. chris christie made a talk this sunday over the weekend. it looked a lot like he's running for president. the crux of the article is that the issue of israel is posing a challenge for him because he didn't bring it up. 16-minute talk delivered to the jewish international awards gala focused on the need for the u.s. to reclaim role on issues including syria and civil war and emboldened russia and iran's work on a nuclear reactor. he mentioned the former president ronald reagan several times as a model of relationship and criticized washington gridlock. he said things like this which
sound like a candidate, america is no longer sending clear signals to me world. consistent signals. signals like the ones ronald reagan sent when he was president as to whom our friends are, the governor said on sunday. in the audience, eugene robinson, sheldon adelson, the las vegas casino magnate and who vowed to support the next presidential candidate. they spoke after the meeting one-on-one. thoughts as to why chris christie would take time to do that on a sunday afternoon or evening? >> you know, mika, i think he's running for president. i think he's trying to establish a position in foreign policy. i guess the question is not so much sending signals, i would argue, but sending troops. you want to talk about syria, send all the signals you want. that doesn't seem to do much to
bashir al assad. >> as much as he's been plagued by bridgegate, he's raised more money than all o other republicans. >> and her got in trouble in march talking about the west bank in terms of occupied territories. i think a lot of people thought that speech was a chance for him to clear that up. and he didn't do it well enough wsh some say. let's move on to steve rattner's charts. that's why we're here today. the latest victim of gridlock in washington. your first chart, steve. americans are driving less. first part of the problem. >> right. we're coming up on memorial day weekend. a lot of people are going to take to the roads. fewer than in the past, because what's happened since the recession began in 2008. is americans are starting to drive less. you can see this blue line which
has been growing, growing, actually flat. if you look at a per capita basis, americans are driving a lot less. they're down from 13,000 miles a year per american, they're down to 12,000 miles a year at the moment. this is a little bit of recession, a bit of young people not living as far from work and so on. but it has consequences for our roads. a lot of our road repair is financed by the gas tax. here's what's been happening to the gas tax since then. if we look at the next chart. so yeah. the gas tax was last increased in 1993. and if you look at it on inflation basis, it's been going down, down, down. as a mix of the fact people are driving less, using less gasoline and so on. and inflation has eroded that gas tax. so the consequences of that, the
gate goes into the highway trust fund. the highway trust fund pays for repairs to roads. if you look at the state of the highway trust fund, you'll see the implications of this gas tax thing. declining revenues. then over here in these last four years, congress has had to put $54 billion of the general into this fund. >> 1993. >> and at the moment the gas tax -- the highway trust fund is going to go broke this august. >> terrific. >> this august then start to run these kinds of deficits. meanwhile congress is in a fight about the fact that people don't want to spend more. people don't want to tax more. they do want their roads. so they may pass some kind of stopgap measure, but in the meanwhile, there's a million miles of roads that are at the mercy of what's going on in congress. >> so if politicians do not raise the gas tax, what are they
proposed to do about the roads are crumbling and full of potholes? we see it every day. >> i drove in from the country on sunday, and every time you hit those potholes -- i think the solution is going to be they'll take general revenue and stick it in the trust fund as a stopgap measure. the conservatives won't like that because it will be an increase in our budget deficit. it'll be another one of these classic washington, take steps and not do anything at the root of it all. >> do you suppose they could figure if you raise the gas tax minimally to repair roads and bridges, that means you hire people who make money who then spend money in small businesses. can they figure that out? >> some of the wiser people have made that point, but it has gone unheard. >> okay. here's a question for you all. what went wrong at willie's epic senior year house party? what went wrong there?
>> i know. >> and what would prompt willie to get an earring? willie's dad bill geist hits the table for the answers to the question for their new book. and it's one of the most iconic guitar riffs of all time but it may have been stolen from another band? no. that story is next. ♪ [ male announcer ] staples has everything you need to launch a startup from your garage. from computers, smartphones, and 3-d printers to coffee, snacks, and drinks to fuel the big ideas. yes, staples has everything you need to launch a startup from your garage. mom! except permission to use the garage. thousands of products added every day to staples.com. even safety cones. this week, get maxwell house® original roast ground coffee for $5.99. staples. make more happen.

battle in the senate. voters will decide which candidates head to the general election in key battle ground states. mitch mcconnell looks secure against tea party challenger matt bevin, but it is his likely november opponent democrat alison lun alison lundergan grimes that poses more of a threat. >> i am a kentucky woman who my colleagues have referred to as an empty dress. that seeks to retire mitch mcconnell. mitch mcconnell fails to realize that it's labor that have lifted millions out of poverty as he says no to collective bargaining, as he says no to prevailing wage. you will have someone in the united states the saying right to work for less is just another saying for union busting and i
will have none of it. >> for mcconnell, it's not just keeping his seat in the senate. he's got his eyes on majority leader if republicans take control. >> twlst only one thing we can do about it in 2014. in 2014 you can make me the offensive coordinator instead of the defensive coordinator. >> so to shift the balance of power, gop candidates need to win six seats. and mcconnell thinks that monica webby may be one of them. >> for you women in the room, you'd love our candidate in oregon who's going to be nominated today. tomorrow. their primary is the same day as ours. she's a female pediatric neurosurgeon whose slogan is change your senator, not your doctor. >> okay. i'm going to go to cokie roberts, because she, too, is a female. >> therefore an expert on dr.
monica webby. she has got a real problem in oregon. and it's a perfect example of what happens when you go to a political unknown. she looked great on paper. a pediatric neurosurgeon as you heard senator mcconnell say. she's attractive. she has no record which can be useful. and the tea party supports her opponent. the truth is that she's had all these police reports come out where both her former boyfriend and her former husband have accused her of stalking them and in the police report from her former husband, he says that she threw a note pad at him. now, the police say they got there and saw a little red mark on his face that could have been, and i'm quoting here, a zit. so it clearly wasn't a serious injury, but still.
it does raise questions about her character if they keep having these reports. i think she probably will have trouble winning today. >> i don't want even know. wow. well, so senator mcconnell is offering support to the republican candidate in oregon as she deals with the bruising end to her primary campaign. and it surrounds newly revealed details about the messy divorce and whether it was the note pad or zit. anyhow, this is hardly the only race this cycle to feature some of the darker sides of politics. so nbc's kasie hunt has much more for you. >> i think negative campaigns are like nitroglycerin. unstable, dangerous, and oftentimes most dangerous to the people using them. >> reporter: good advice from a man who knows a thing or two about winning campaigns. but not everyone is listening. in just the last week, there are reports of a senate candidate who once threw things at her
ex-husband. new documents claiming a texas politician tried to commit suicide two decades ago. and then there's the political blogger who tried to break into a nursing home to photograph a senator's bedridden wife. >> we don't know this guy. we have no idea who he is that's been arrested by the madison police trying to do what is one of the most despicable things i have ever heard of. >> reporter: blogger clayton kelly supports tea party candidate chris mcdaniel who's challenging thad cochran. he's accused of taking pictures of cochran's wife who's ill and posting them on this website. >> just a source of a lot of ugly rumors and nasty stuff. we wanted it squashed. >> reporter: in nearby texas, there are just days until a runoff election. lieutenant governor david dewhurst is distancing himself from documents suggesting opponent dan patrick once attempted suicide.
>> the race took a bizarre turn thursday night with the release of court documents showing he was hospitalized for depression in the '80s. >> reporter: meanwhile in oregon, these are the headlines the day before primary voting ends. according to the police report, quote, monica has pulled his hair, slapped him, and thrown items at him. but negative campaigning has a mixed track record. it's easy to remember the attacks that worked. like this one against michael dukakis. >> gordon kidnapped a couple repeatedly raping his girlfriend. a weekend pass. dukakis on crime. >> reporter: in a close race with rand paul, jack conway's campaign ran this. >> why did rand paul tie a woman up and tell him his god was aqua buddha? >> what are we going here?

much as possible. that means voters are in for a dragout fight. >> cokie, it's interesting. kasie just referenced that mcconnell is deeply unpopular in kentucky but unpopular even within the republican structure in kentucky and yet he is obviously very popular within the minority of republicans who are in the united states senate. talk about the differences between being a leader in the senate and running for re-election in your own home state. >> well, actually, being a leader in the senate can be a detriment for running in your home state. the fact is that people at home want you to be paying attention at home. and we've seen several key senators lose mainly in their primaries because they haven't paid attention at home. but for instance, like dick lugar who was a very respected member of the senate from indiana, chairman of the committee at various times lost
to a tea partier. now, that's not happening to mcconnell. and that is an important thing to talk about today. because what the republicans have caught onto is that they are not allowing the candidates who can't win in november to win their primaries. and so mcconnell's going to win his primary in kentucky. it looks like the people who are running in georgia who are on the republican side, the more mainstream republicans are going to come out ahead in that primary. and in oregon, we'll see. because of the last-minute charges against dr. webby. but mcconnell, even though people don't like him, they vote for him. and that keeps happening. so i think that he's -- even though it's going to be a rough race, he's likely to win it. >> alison grimes has done well. but there are five and a half months left until election day. what's the core of her argument
against mitch mcconnell should she make it through and mcconnell make it through tonight? >> she's making the core argument that she's the one who's going to be rooted in kentucky. she's essentially tying mcconnell to a very unpopular washington. and he's actually making the argument that because he's been in washington so long, he's the right person for kentucky and i asked her yesterday if she could bring home the amount of money that he has. she dinged him for those earmarks. he had to distance himself from those. it meant senators in neighboring states got credit for a recent dam project. i had seen her campaign here in february. i saw her again last night. she's made marked improvements on the stump. >> all right. quick, steve. >> just to mike's point. there is precedent of people tired of having a leader out of state that they feel is out of touch and not looking after
them. you had tom daschle who had been there a long time. you had tom foley losing in oregon in 1994. so every once in awhile, the populist does rise up and say we want someone paying attention to us. and this guy's out of touch. >> i made fun of using the word "female." but it came across as old fashioned and completely out of touch. >> old fashioned for mitch mcconnell? >> it was like, what are you talking about? but that's what we got. let's move onto this story. this is something else. new york mayor bill de blasio is defending his wife this morning following a magazine profile where she discussed her struggles as a new mom. she talks about the challenges of balancing a career with the responsibilities of being a mother. she says about her daughter in part, quote, this.
it was a long article and here's the quote. i was 40 years old. hi a life. the truth is i could not spend every day with her. she had just had her baby. i didn't want to do that. i looked for all kinds of reasons not to do it. it took a long time for me to get into, i'm taking care of kids, and what that means. the tabloids pounced. the new york post ran a screaming headline, i was a bad mom. mayor de blasio not happy speaking to reporters at city hall. the democrat called on the papers to apologize. >> i think it's deeply disturbing. i think it was inappropriate. it really suggests a tremendous misunderstanding of what it is to be a parent and mother. i think a lot of women are offended. a lot of hard working women in this city are offended. i think both the post and "the daily news" owe her an apology, all of us an apology for absolutely misrepresenting what
she said and for caricaturing a reality that i think so many women face. >> so i'd like to go to cokie roberts again not only because she's female but from a legacy of strong mothers. i read the new york post i think it was and there was a headline saying i was a bad mother. i thought is there abuse involved. and i open it up and she said something a lot of women feel. is that fair? >> of course. absolutely. i had my babies in my early 20s. it was a lot easier than being as involved as she was in her career. the truth is nobody wants to spend all day every day with a baby. they don't say anything. they're darling and they coo and all of that, but they're not the most scintillating company. and so i think that she was just
saying the truth and what a huge number of people feel. and it has clearly been distorted. give me a break. >> give me a break. i found it inappropriate is what the word the mayor used. i think it was offensive and i feel like they wouldn't say this about other people. eugene robinson, what could be behind such an attack like this? >> well, it's partly political. "the new york post" of course doesn't like mayor de blasio and would like to weaken him however it can. i think, however, it did something that is bound to create sympathy for de blasio and for his whole family. and also i think "the new york post" owes us an apology as part of the media. i think this is part of the reason of why we rate so low in terms of approval and popularity is things like this.
just obviously unfair personal attacks. it's just -- >> this is one that hit where it hurts for women who -- i mean, as working women, women who work at home, whoufr you want to describe it. we spend most of our time with those some of those feelings that chirlane said and trying to appease everyone and show them we love them. for some reason this was -- i don't know. below the belt. it was completely off base to attack her that way. >> why don't you explain to the male editors of "the new york post" how exhausted you get after having a child. and there comes a point in time quickly after having that child that your partner, your husband leaves for work and you don't. >> well, i mean, i literally -- i have a -- my husband is an equal part. i will say there were times, though, where i took our daughter to the doctor and it
just didn't even don on -- the thought of him going with us was not happening i do things the husband doesn't do. it comes down to us. and that's why i read this and it hurt so much. >> right. and you do all those things and then you also go to work. many women choose to work. >> work is the great place to go. that's the dirty little secret that men have known for years and years is that going to work is a great relief. it is so much easier to go to work than it is to stay at home. >> get some sleep at work. >> and also it's just to find activities. you know what you're doing. you're probably good at it. and it is something that does involve adult companionship and all of that. home is hard. it's always being on call. you're never off duty. >> cokie, the number of women
that have to work on top of it. so wow. i had never seen anything like it in a lot of ways. i've seen some crazy headlines, but not one like this that was cold and sered. i think it did sere most women who read it. i want to send it back now to moore, oklahoma, where the community there is marking one year after that devastating tornado. thomas roberts is live near the same spot we visited just hours after the storm hit. thomas? >> reporter: mika, good morning to you. we are live this morning in front of plaza towers elementary school. this is just one of the elementary schools that was devastated last year when that ef-5 tornado came through moore. behind me this is the spot where seven children died. as you can see, they have started the process of rebuilding this elementary school. they hope to have it open by fall. and as we look around this neighborhood, a lot more homes are coming back with brick structures but when owe went to the same spot we were broadcasting from last year, it was encouraging to see the
rebuilding that has happened. it is also a little heart breaking to see a lot of the building that hasn't happened. here's a look at what we saw. so this is the exact same spot where we were broadcasting from last year. this is the home of amber and her husband and daughter. they rode out the storm in their bathtub wearing helmets and they pulled mattresses over the bathtub. they came out of the storm unscathed, but their house was a deplete wreck. and now it's just a dirt pile. there's not even a slab that remains here anymore. you'll also remember in the front yard there was a tree over here. it was surrounded by metal shrapnel. and that used to be the moore medical facility. it's leveled now. they put down new roads, but they've done no reconstruction. what they have now is that area of tents for the moore emergency clinic that they've been able to serve patients that way. and there you see down there, the movie theater where they had
some roof repairs. that remains pretty much unchanged. so it really is amazing to see the progress that has been made in certain spots. you'll remember that corner. it was on south telephone road and southwest 6th that we were doing our live reporting from. now there is some small regrowth there with homes that have been rebuilt. but you'll recall the devastation that was the moore medical facility across the way that also had that day care center. that is completely gone. now just a flat surface. there is some pavement down for roads because they plan to have the medical facility open in 2016 there. but as you saw in that example, they have the tent city of an emergency room there for those that need treatment so they can help the patients there. i guess you have to temper expectations of how quickly they can rebuild, how smartly they
can rebuild. there's been over some 8,000 building permits issued. as i'm looking around here at plaza towers, so many homes are going up with brick construction. >> thomas, thank you so much. we'll talk to you soon. appreciate it. still ahead from schindler's list to a raunchy western comedy? we'll find out why liam neeson took the big creative risk when he joins us in our 8:00 hour. and later this hour, two races in two cities all in one day. kurt busch is planning to put that off and why. okay. up next, oh yeah. oh, yeah. you know what? i got some questions for this guy. i've watched him all my life. i've worked with him. i worked with him. bill geist here to spill the beans on willie, his childhood, and everything else. you're watching "morning joe." we'll be right back. ♪ i make a lot of purchases for my business.

things that dads are supposed to talk to sons about. so we go back and have awkward conversations. >> better late than never. >> the sex thing, i had no idea what to say or how to do it. i thought it would happen naturally in the woods. >> because you didn't know anything about it. you were like me. >> i didn't want him contradicting me. in third grade, kids are taught more than i know now. i'm real clear on it today. >> it all just doesn't make any sense, does it? >> the truth is talking to people about this book now anecdotally, i don't know about you, mike, i haven't heard any fathers and son who sat down and said let's talk about sex, son. what dad and kid want that can frgs? >> can you imagine my dad and brothers? >> a visual component? i didn't know what to do. >> i love it. >> this book is not only laugh out loud funny every page of it, but it is a must-read for every family in america. for many, many reasons.
but i want to ask you, bill geist, what were you thinking when you sent willie to summer camp? >> i had the best intentions as fathers and mothers always do. so jodi his mother and i we researched this. we went to the camp expo down at the center where you can send your kid to finland or become the greate eses eses esest baso. we dropped him off and thought it would work. >> it looked lovely. what the guy who sold my dad a cut rate camp, what he didn't share was that the counselors at the camp were in rehabilitation. they were juvenile offenders. in some cases they had committed mostly nonviolent crime but some violent. and we didn't know that when we got there. so i kid you not, there were
gang fights at the camp. there was one night where some of the counselors went and slashed the tires on each other's cars. we often couldn't get into what they call the pill box which was the medical facility because the woman, the nurse in the pill box was sleeping with some of the counselors and they were locked up in there. so if you had a medical condition, you just had to wait until they were finished. . >> wow. >> we learned a few things. >> that beats being held hostage in niese with the family to take care of the kids where there are no kids. >> i get a $25 discount coupon. cut it out of a sunday magazine. >> you love your truck, right? >> i love my truck, right. >> did you see the picture of the red jeep. >> i did. i was coveting it. >> willie finally drove the red jeep all the way from new jersey to vanderbilt. >> that was our family car there 1984. my dad spent every nickel of a book advance on that car. >> $7700. it was extra if you wanted a
front seat. >> that's the way the jeeps were. >> so he paid for a back seat but no power steering, no frills whatsoever. by the time i learned to drive 13 years later, and it was so beat up, the floor was rusted through. but that was our family car. mom used to pick me up with no doors many the red jeep regardless of the weather. >> i like this picture of you, you look like eddie haskell. >> that's my senior photograph in high school. you can't see because of the black and white, it's blurred, i have an earring in. >> and you tell that story. why? what in god's name? >> our entire football team got earrings. it was this act of rebellion. except i told my mom about it and she said all right, if you do it, we'll do it the right way. the other guys were jabbing needles through their ears. my mom drove me personally to her little hair and nail salon. >> willie.
>> it take this rebellion out of it when your mom takes you to her hair salon. >> there's your tough guy right there. >> what conversations did you guys actually have that maybe you would have never had if you didn't do this book together? >> lots of them. >> most of it is fun and light and we didn't have a serious birds and bees conversation. but we talked about parkinson's more than we had. we talked more deeply about why he didn't tell us about it and what his life is like with it. >> why didn't he? >> i didn't because i'd always been the fun guy. and i didn't want to be -- when i walk into a room i didn't want the first thing people thought of is, oh, he has parkinson's or he's a sick guy. and i didn't want my kids to worry about it. i didn't know where it was going and i didn't want them to think it was catastrophic. >> the remarkable thing about my dad is not only has he lived and worked with it. he's worked with it on national television.

♪ it is not just the candidates who have a lot riding on today's elections. the pollsters who cover every inch of the campaigns also have a lot at stake. as derrick kitts reports, they're sometimes remembered more for what they got wrong than what they got right. >> political polling is a silence.
oftentimes the results shape the candidates issues. who says the polling results are always correct? back in 1936 the literary digest predicted alf landon would beat roosevelt. that didn't happen. but it opened the door for george gallup who got it right. 12 years later the chicago tribune relied on faulty polling and ended up publishing a headline that couldn't have been further from the truth. it was harry truman who got the keys to the white house for the next four years. in 2004 just days before the election, polls showed john kerry with a four-point edge over president bush in ohio. but again, the polling was inaccurate with george w. bush claiming the buckeye state and another term in the white house. 2008 also saw its share of polling inaccuracies with five polls conducted just days before the new hampshire democratic primary showing barack obama to be way out in front. the pollsters, however, failed to inform then-senator hillary clinton who went on to claim the
state by three percentage points. in 2012, it was gallup that incorrectly predicted a mitt romney victory. instead, barack obama went on to win the popular vote by more than 3 million. with so much being made of the polling in today's key elections, we'll be back friday to assess just who got it right and who got it wrong and what it could mean heading into november. >> thank you. cokie roberts, there are wrong polls and yet we follow them. why? >> well, because they give us some indication of what people are thinking and whoo i. and they're much more useful for that, frankly, than they are for predicting an outcome. but there are also good polls and bad polls. you've got to know which ones are which. it tends to be true that the media polls, the ones that nbc takes, abc takes are better polls than the independent polls. and the candidate polls, forget altogether. they are generally taken with a
mission in mind and really should not be paid any attention to. but you've got to be good at knowing which ones to track and which ones not to. otherwise you will get it very wrong. >> steve rattner, politicians always say we don't care what the polls say. it just doesn't matter. we never look at them. >> well, they may increasingly be right. because one of the problems with polls is they're getting less reliable. as people move away from landlines and 40% of people in america don't have those anymore and they operate off cell phones, it's hard to get the information. you don't know who you're talking to. you don't get the same response rates. and finally a lot of the local newspapers that used to finance these can't afford to do it anymore. so the polling business they think is on facing the challenge. >> they are using cell phones. >> they don't get the same response rates. >> but good ones do have the models where they can correct
for it. it really is poll by poll. >> wow. cokie roberts, always good to see you. thank you for being on the show this morning. see you in washington some time. still ahead, we go back to moore, oklahoma, one year after a massive tornado changed everything. thomas roberts will be joined by the state's governor mary fallon. plus congressman tom cole who makes that community his home. so we'll be right back with much more "morning joe."

♪ all right. this story is all over the front pages of the major newspapers. there are new concerns about tensions between the united states and china. after a first of its kind indictment. five chinese nationals are now facing charges of allegedly hacking into computers of six u.s. companies and stealing trade secrets. the justice department says the companies included westinghouse,
alcoa, and u.s. steel. they suspect they are part of a military unit that uses e-mails to install malware and the companies' computers. china is rejecting the allegations and accusing the united states of spying. the country is also pulling out of an agreement for the two countries to hold talks on cyber security. china has summoned u.s. ambassador max baucus and demanding he have the charges eliminated. where does this stand in terms of our relationship with china? >> not good on that front. but we've believed for a long time that the chinese were conducting industrial spying and stealing secrets from our companies. but for a long time, the companies didn't want to be named and we didn't do much about it. now they have moved forward. obviously there's a certain irony in this because of the nsa spying that also went on. we have created this sort of thin line of explanation that we only spy on institutions, on people that we thought were trying to do us harm. they are stealing trade secrets
from us. these five people indicted will never come to trial. this is really kind of a statement of our new lean-in mode, if you will, on this issue. and it is a real issue, but we don't have a lot of leverage over the chinese. and it's not good for our relationship. >> up next, this weekend nascar champ kurt busch will be raicin more than a thousand miles. why he's doing it, we'll tell you next. ♪ for all kinds of reasons. i go to angie's list to gauge whether or not the projects will be done in a timely fashion and within budget. angie's list members can tell you which provider is the best in town. you'll find reviews on everything from home repair to healthcare. now that we're expecting, i like the fact i can go onto angie's list and look for pediatricians. the service providers that i've found on angie's list actually have blown me away. find out why more than two million members count on angie's list. angie's list -- reviews you can trust.

because there's so many reasons why you would be inspired to do this beyond the fact that it's what you love. >> well, it's memorial day weekend, and to me that's always been a time to reflect and honor and to give notice to our men and women who have served. on memorial day weekend it's a tough challenge to run 1100 miles in a day. when i feel like that i'm not up to the task or i'm about ready to fall out of the seat, as they say, i'm going to lean back on the experience that i've received from the military. my trips to walter reed, bethesda medical centers, seeing these men and women who have served, who have their arms blown off or their legs or struggling with ptsd. that's what the armed forces foundation does, focus on ptsd, posttraumatic stress, and helping our troops get back into civilian life and back up on their feet. this is inspiration i've received from them and i want everyone to know that i'm out there pushing hard for our military. >> what are the logistics of the two races? where are they held and how are you going to do this?
>> the first race is in indianapolis. the race starts at noon. usually it's about a four-hour race. i have a two-hour window to get to charlotte for the coca-cola 600, the big nascar race. in between i'll be flying on a cessna jet. those guys have helped me get back and forth with all of the practice sessions so far so the logistics is a challenge, the race is a challenge and for me i have zero indycar experience so that's the fun part of all of this. >> and yesterday you lost your indycar. he had a wreck yesterday at indianapolis. >> that shows my inexperience with the indycar for sure. i qualified it at 230 miles an hour on sunday and then we had a practice yesterday and the car just slid away from me and i wrecked it. >> okay. >> so survived the wreck. that's part of racing. you don't think about the side effects of when you can or will wreck. >> have you got a backup car? >> i think patricia does. go ahead, steve ratner. >> so how do you think the indy thing will go?
what's your prediction given where you'll finish? >> for me it's just pacing myself for that 500 miles. what i did wrong yesterday was i try to get into a groove to settle in and absorb the car and not, you know, overexert myself. well, that indycar will bite you if you don't give it full attention, so i didn't respect that indycar and the challenge that it presents every lap. so the mental side of the indycar is more important than the physical side. >> all right, you're driving this weekend the double to raise awareness for service members, veterans and their family members who deal with ptsd and other injuries, to recognize them and thank them. kurt busch, thank you so much. good luck. be good, especially with the part that you don't know. coming up, he's conquered action films and romantic comedies and now he's taking on westerns. actor liam neeson joins us on set. plus mayor de blasio is striking back after the city's papers attacked his wife with headlines that are frankly way out of line. and we'll go back to moore,
oklahoma, one year after an f-5 tornado leveled that city. >> it's not destroyed, it's not damaged, it's not water soaked, it's gone. >> there's not a day that goes by that i don't -- that i don't talk to a person who's having trouble with this. does it ever go away? i don't know. >> sometimes i feel pretty worn down from all of it. it's been a tough year. when people just kind of question why we moved back, it just -- i sort of ghetto fended because, you know, this is my neighborhood. this is where i want to be. life with crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis
is a daily game of "what if's". what if my abdominal pain and cramps come back? what if the plane gets delayed? what if i can't hide my symptoms? what if? but what if the most important question is the one you're not asking? what if the underlying cause of your symptoms is damaging inflammation? for help getting the answers you need, talk to your doctor and visit crohnsandcolitisinfo.com

good morning. it's 8:00 on the east coast, 5:00 a.m. on the west coast as you take a live look at new york city. you should get up now. mike barnicle is here, steve rattner is here and in washington we have eugene rob inson. in just a few hours voters will decide which candidates head to the general election in key battleground states. mitch mcconnell looks pretty secure against matt bevin but it's likely november opponent allison grimes who's poised to present a tougher task. she came out swinging at a rally in louisville. >> i am a kentucky woman who my republican colleagues have so generally referred to as an empty dress. that seeks to retire mitch
mcconnell. mitch mcconnell fails to realize that it's labor that has lifted millions out of poverty. as he says no to collective bargaining, as he says no to prevailing wage. you will have someone in the united states senate who says right to work for less is just another work for union busting, and i will have none of it. >> okay. for mcconnell, it's not just about keeping his seat in the senate, he's eyeing the role of majority leader should republicans take control. >> there's only one thing we can do about it in 2014. in 2014, you can change the united states senate and make me the offensive coordinator instead of the defensive coordinator. >> a very different tone there. to shift the balance of power gop candidates need to win six seats. mcconnell thinks monica webbe may be one of them. >> i'd say for you women in the room, you'd love our candidate in oregon who's going to be
dominated today -- tomorrow. their primary is the same day as ours. she's a female pediatric neurosurgeon whose slogan is change your senate, not your doctor. >> i guess that's opposed to she's a male -- she's a female? >> i think the words seemed awkward to me. >> he's an awkward guy. >> okay. female webbe, however, has faced a bruising end to the campaign with newly disclosed accusations that she harassed her ex-husband during their divorce back in 2007. he reportedly called the police and claimed she had pulled his hair, slapped him and threw items at him. i'd like to hear the whole story. on friday politico reported another man, a former boyfriend, accused webbe of stalking him last year. male, willie, take over. >> thank you, female, mika,
appreciate it. that's quite an op-o dump at the end here. let's go back to kentucky where this obviously is about november. it looks like mcconnell and grimes will win tonight, we'll see. what kind of race does this shape up to be? this is as tough as mcconnell has been challenged right now. we're still five and a half months away from election day but you look at the poll, he's locked and he's worried about grimes. >> yeah, all the polls show this is a very close race in november. allison crimgrimes is obviously formidable candidate. she's a knfemale candidate at that, as mitch mcconnell might have noticed and pointed out. he's a crafty politician. he knows kentucky. he's got a lot of strings to pull. but he's in a really tough race and it's a funny state. it's basically a solid red state but it could elect a democrat.
it's not beyond the realm of possibility. so this could be the fight of his -- of this phase at least of his political life. >> barnicle. >> gene, if memory serves me correctly there was a poll within the past six or seven weeks that showed senator mcconnell's internals were highly negative against him among republicans, which was kind of an interesting dynamic. i don't know whether his opponent's -- his democratic opponent's seemingly strength would account for the fact that suddenly after all of these years, steve rattner, he seems to be traveling with his wife more often than not. >> his wife is a very for midable character. she served in bush's cabinet as a secretary of labor and a real force of nature and gives him a personality, shall we say, that might not always be present in his absence. so he's bringing in the female. >> all right. speaking of females, my god,
it's not like we're talking about your horses or something. it's ridiculous -- did mitch mcconnell say female? >> he did. >> can someone send him a note, seriously. i don't think he wants one from me. speaking of females, new york city mayor bill de blasio is defending his wife following a magazine profile where she discussed her struggles as a new mom. in an interview with "new york" magazine, she spoke about the challenges of balancing a career with the responsibilities of being a mother. she says about her daughter in part, this. i was 40 years old. i had a life. the truth is i could not spend every day with her. i didn't want to do that. i looked for all kinds of reasons not to do it. it took a long time for me to get into i'm taking care of kids and what that means. the tabloids pounced. "the daily news" said she did not want to be a mom.
"the new york post" ran a headline i was a bad mom. the democrat called on the papers to apologize. >> i think it's deeply disturbing. i think it was inappropriate. it really suggests a tremendous misunderstanding of what it is to be a parent, what it is to be a mother. i think a lot of women are offended. a lot of hard-working women in this city are offended. i think both "the post" and "the daily news" owes her an apology and all of us an apology for absolutely misrepresenting what she said and for caricaturing a reality that i think so many women face. >> so it's -- i read the article. first of all, that part of it is this much in an article that was this big. it was much to do about her life as an advocate, as a ground-breaker, as wife of a politician, but also a partner who has a career in her own
right and ideas in her own right and hopes and thoughts for the future in her own right. i found the headlines to be stunning. >> what century is this that we're in all of a sudden? you know, we have this this week, all last week we're talking about jill abramson, you know, mitch mcconnell uses "female" in that odd way. did i -- did i miss something? did we just go back 100 years? >> steve. >> "the new york post" went down. "the new york post" decided to take a short part of a long article, twist it around and put it on its first page because "the new york post" is after this mayor, shall we say. >> what -- i just wonder what's behind that. >> bill de blasio -- first of all, bill de blasio ought not to use the word "inappropriate." it's the most overworked word currently in the english language. that was offensive. it was more than inappropriate,
it was offensive to any young mother with children. you can't help the feeling am i going to be handcuffed to the house for the rest of my life? you love your child, you care for your child but it's okay to have those feelings. >> i will say that she says what so many women feel. i felt it, absolutely. and the guilt that she talks about, lived with every day. it starts to steam roll into something worse because you really feel pressured between what society thinks you should be, which is completely in love with your kids 24 hours a day, seven days a week, something that by the way is not applied to a man. if you don't feel that way is there something wrong with you as a woman? because i did feel that way. >> but you are in love with your children, you're just exhausted because your husband is not there. >> and there are other facets to your identity beyond the fact that you have children. that's all she was saying, she had worked since she was 14 years old.
that she knew how to do. what she didn't know how to do was to be tied to the house running around after toddlers and almost being hostage to them. >> i think maybe you'd agree with this, especially with your first child, because your entire life has focused inward. it's been all about you and your careers and your goals and all these other things and this person shows up and you love them more than you've ever loved anything in your life but it's adjustment. that's all she was talking about. i don't think that we should be surprised that it's on the cover of these papers because that's what they're in the business of, being provocative but this one went too far. >> some women say it they're just not married to the mayor who "the new york post" is trying to disembowel. >> the nba is moving forward with its plans to strip donald sterling of his ownership of the los angeles clippers. he has charged with contact that has damaged and continues to
damage the nba hurting the league's relationship with its fans and owners. his lawyer has requested a three-month delay, which is unlikely to happen. sterling will have the opportunity to make his case to fellow owners at a hearing on june 3rd. if three-fourths of owners vote to uphold the charges, sterling will be forced to sell the clippers, as he should, willie. >> steve, donald sterling's argument is that you cannot just strip a person of their property at will. there has to be some case. we all knew this was coming, he was going to sue back and fight this whole thing, but there's no way come opening night in october that donald sterling is owning the los angeles clippers. all they need is a three-fourths vote from the owners. obviously going to get that. you have players like lebron james saying if donald sterling owns the clippers, i will not play in next year's season. there's just going to be a big fight along the way. >> one thing about this that hasn't really come out, there's
a big tax fight involved in this whole thing because donald sterling bought that team for nothing. if he dies with that as part of his estate, he gets a step up in basis and avoids paying a couple hundred million dollars on that when the team is ultimately sold. he's not a well man as has also been reported. so i think there's a little bit of a subtext here of i need this in my estate because it's going to cost me an awful lot of money if i die first. but the end result, the contract between the nba and the owners seems crystal clear. there are plenty of other businesses where you can lose your license, lose your franchise, lose your rights if you're part of an organization and you have agreed to abide by its rules. >> it's been reprehensible for so long, really, just get it over with. moving on, with one of the most devastating tornados in american history, 24 dead, 400 hurt, and the town of moore, oklahoma, levelled. "morning joe" was on the scene
hours after the storm hit and thomas roberts has made his way back there. thomas. >> reporter: mika, good morning to you. we do continue our live coverage here in moore, oklahoma, where we are coming back to visit the area most devastated by that ef-5 tornado that ripped through a year ago today. one of the areas most devastated was plaza towers elementary school which is behind me. seven children lost their lives there. joining me this morning is republican congressman tom cole of moore, oklahoma. this is your community, sir. it's great to have you with me. explain what you've seen over the last 12 months that's gotten us to this point today where we can stand in front of almost a fully completed plaza towers elementary school. what's the community spirit? >> you know, very strong, very upbeat. this place knows how to come back. we've had a tremendous amount of help. you've got to frankly credit the american people who have been here in force. we have terrific local and state leadership. federal government has done an excellent job. in the end it takes people to
rebuild and we've got great people and they're putting it back together. >> reporter: obviously you have deep rots within this community and the people of moore and the people of oklahoma have deep roots within their state and their towns because they do rebuild after these severe weather systems move through. we know that the irony of the fact that it was in 1999 that an ef-5 came through moore at the same clip, almost the same trajectory of what we saw a year ago and the community rebuilt. here we are standing in this community near plaza towers and seeing homes go back up and hearing the noise of construction. what makes the families feel safe enough to want to come back and reinvest and rebuild? >> i think first of all they know this is a place that knows how to rebuild, that supports you when times are tough. people forget, as bad as tornados are, they're not hurricanes. a hurricane hits everything for hundreds of thousands of square miles. these are pretty tightly circumstance described paths of
destruction. i've lived here through multiple tornados. my house has never been hit, i've been pretty fortunate, and that's true with the majority of people. but when they come, if you're in that path, obviously it's deadly and dangerous. >> reporter: and when we speak with deadly and dangerous, seven children lost their lives. this school did not have a storm shelter in place. it's coming back with a storm shelter that's going to be built to resemble a classroom so if the kids go into it it's not too jarring to them. >> right. >> reporter: but explain why there have been school facilities and other places that have been built without the money spent to put that precaution in when we know that this is in tornado alley. >> well, i think historically it just wasn't done here and wasn't done any place else in the midwest that i'm aware of as a requirement. but we've gone from two shelters in schools to ten in the last year. i think every school will have one pretty soon. lots of safe rooms, lots of
reinforced buildings built. so people do learn tough lessons and that's something we should have done differently. >> reporter: it seems as though the governor we're going to have on later in the show talking about how this should be handled, keeping it from truly as local as possible. as someone who lives in this community, what's your thought on how local it should be when it comes to decisions about storm shelters and the rebates that go along with them, the tax rebates. >> i think the more local, the better. again, there's federal programs that help a lot that either incentivize or match prices or help people that can't afford them. there's state efforts and philanthropic efforts but i think at the end of the day people ought to control their own destiny and make their own decisions. people feel they're very much in control of their own lives and honestly they prefer it that day. >> reporter: and you're back to d.c. today? >> sadly so.
>> reporter: later today there is a remembrance ceremony at the former moore medical facility. >> correct. this is our version, you know, of the oklahoma city bombing or 9/11. in this community this is a really impactful experience and honestly put us under a lot of pressure but brought us together, so it's my hometown, there's no place else i'd rather be. >> reporter: moore strong. thanks for making time for us on "morning joe." we'll check in with bill karins. it is a beautiful, gorgeous, sunny day. it's a little blustery but it's probably 68, 70 degrees. really nice. >> a lot better than a year ago, right, thomas? what's interesting, we were talking about with the storm that went through there, it's not like a hurricane but you can see in the picture behind me, this is where the worst devastation was. that's where the elementary school was down here at the bottom. only about two blocks over, those houses on the far right just barely touched but the houses in the middle of the screen were gone and devastated. that's how tornados work.
it's unfair and there's a lot of guilt felt by a lot of people. you can be a block or two away and your house is fine. this was an ef-5. it was on the ground 39 minutes, 17 miles, and up to 210 miles per hour. we don't get many that strong. yesterday we did have one pretty strong storm in nebraska but that was about it. we saw some rain this morning through the great lakes. if we're going to get any damaging storms today, they're likely going to occur from areas around chicago to cedar rapids, heading down to indiana and ohio. again, not thinking tornados today. that will be wind damage with those storms. we're actually getting a little break from our tornado season. this is the peak month and we're in a little lull here and hopefully will stay in it. as far as the travel goes today, not many issues out there. we're looking pretty nice across much of the country and it looks to stay that way right through tomorrow. up next, the woman who wrote the big profile of mayor de blasio's wife that the new york tabloids twisted into
inappropriate headlines. you're watching "morning joe." we'll be right back. ameriprise asked people a simple question: can you keep your lifestyle in retirement? i don't want to think about the alternative. i don't even know how to answer that. i mean, no one knows how long their money is going to last.
i try not to worry, but you worry. what happens when your paychecks stop? because everyone has retirement questions. ameriprise created the exclusive confident retirement approach. to get the real answers you need. start building your confident retirement today.

"harper's bazaar," laura brown. good morning, laura. good to have you in here for this conversation. we've been talking about this all morning, lisa. >> i know. >> your piece is really making waves, but not in the way i thought it would. >> it's incredible, right? >> if i'd have read it, i would have thought a lot of other things that came out about the mayor's wife would have been fascinating, ground breaking and potentially, you know, even controversial. >> right. >> but not this. >> right. >> but maybe it's because i felt the same way. let me read the -- if i can say that. am i going to get burned at the stake? >> i think you're not alone and that's the point. >> so you write in "new york" magazine, mccray had always imagined a life with children. but as with so many women, the reality of motherhood, the loss of independence, the relentlessness of the responsibility was difficult of i was 40 years old. i had a life. will we feel guilt forever more?
the truth is yes, but i could not spend every day with her. i didn't want to do that. i looked for all kind of reasons not to do it. i love her. i have thousands of photos of her. every one month birthday, two-month birthday but i've been working since i was 14. that part of me is me. it took a long time for me to get into i'm taking care of kids and what that means. did that strike you when she said it? >> when she said it, we were in -- around a conference table at city hall and there were probably four or five of us sitting around the table and we were all women and mothers. and she said it and we all sort of did a little hallelujah, like that is the truth. the truth is that when you're a new mother and you have a tiny baby, sometimes you can't wait to get away from the baby and that does not mean you don't love your children. you know, this is a perfect moment actually because she has spent her entire life saying the unpopular thing.
saying the thing that is true but nobody wants to hear. this just blew up. >> it did blow up. when i read the article, it's way down deep in the article, it's subtle. it's not like you guys blew it out of proportion. and yet there seems to be an attack here, response, laura, especially in the local papers that is ugly. >> it's so offensive. and when she's articulating something that so many women feel and has united a lot of women this morning. all my friends are e-mailing and they say sometimes i was tired. i have a job, i have a brain, i want to go and work, i want to function. it doesn't mean less. >> or have to. that's the other thing, you have to. >> she's not running a pr campaign, she's living her life. just being a human does not make you a bad mother. and her speaking honestly and what i loved about the piece is it's a long read. she doesn't actually say so much. she's very reserved. she's thoughtful. she's articulating something honest and she just is being -- is being herself. the fact that -- i mean it's
just -- it's surprising, but it's not surprising at all that this happened. >> but i think to some degree what we have is a very serious, thoughtful, articulate, interesting piece where a woman talks about all these conflicts and then you have a newspaper with a political agenda deciding to do it. it's hard to imagine -- it's hard to imagine that if this were john mccain's wife they would have taken this out of context, put it on the front page the way they did. they have a different agenda. >> they didn't start hating the de blasio's yesterday. it's part of a longer story. >> besides politics and not liking the de blasios politically, what else would drive such a vitriolic attack? >> mommy wars is such bait. you're a bad mom. it's such bait for everybody. >> with "the post" it's a constant agenda. it's a nearly daily agenda with the de blasios and the mayor specifically. but you said she is used to saying popular and unpopular things. in this case, she didn't say anything that is either popular or unpopular, she said something
that is just truly realistic. >> new york city that's what i mean. she speaks the truth. >> you get exhausted after you have a baby. >> right. >> and the guy goes to work or your partner leaves. >> right. >> for a few hours. >> and people are so emotional about it. even women i was reading the excerpt and she was saying what did she say? what did she say? what did she mean? >> i looked at the headline and thought my god, she abused her kids. >> people get sensitive immediately. it feels like as a mother every minute your public self has to be, oh, they're the joy of my life. >> and she goes on to describe the years that followed where she was caring for her two small children and her aging mother and aging mother-in-law and she speaks like a woman who is really shouldering a huge amount of family responsibility. and, you know, she also speaks like a woman who's entirely committed to that.
and so this is just sort of the real plight of women, of people. >> she's lived her life. this is what's so crazy. she's lived a huge, diverse, multi facetted life before she met bill, before she had children and now she has to come out of her door at 60 reading that she was a bad mother. >> i just wonder if there were other political wives this would be written about. i feel like there's something really obvious we're missing here in terms of what might have been driving this. but here's what maybe the article was supposed to be about in part and that is their partnership and her part in it. the mayor has called her the love of his life, his adviser. understand shirlane and you'll understand me. they have been described as virtual co-mayors. although their staff bristles at the term. the mayor is the mayor says a key aide, those who have worked closely with the couple describe mccray's role as really two
roles. optics guru and political conscience. but that description undersells her brief. staffers call her the mayor's o mophie. they are inseparable. shees his gut check, his sounding board and doesn't a mophie also recharge? >> right here. >> it's wonderful to have a partnership like that. and usually it takes someone with substance to be a partner like that. and yet -- >> and to be fully accredited as such. they are united. and look what she brings to his perspective and he brings to hers. this is such a fantastic piece, but somebody in lisa's piece identified at the end of the piece said what a great brand you have. it almost seemed like she had not thought about it. but look what she is capable of representing. >> she was in pr and a speechwriter for a long time so she's fully aware of how her family looks and what she does for her husband. but she's not comfortable, you
know, in the spotlight, in center stage. she's much more comfortable -- >> or if she's an optics guru, she knows she's not supposed to be in the spotlight necessarily, her husband is the mayor, so she's smart. >> so she's comfortable as the mophie, that's a good role for her. i think it's complicated because we haven't had a first lady in new york for a really, really long time and now we have one and she's entirely unlike any first lady in recent memory. and she's not even like the first ladies that we know. you know, hillary clinton or michelle obama. >> broke the mold. >> she's an entirely different kind of person. and this partnership, which is an authentic partnership, i think is confusing to a lot of people. >> i feel like they were trying to hit her where it hurts because this is where it hurts for women. >> 100%. >> whether you have kids or don't have kids, it hurts. i mean that one, i opened the article thinking i would read something horrific when i saw the headline and it was just the
most honest, real statement i've ever seen. so i just wonder again what's driving this. >> what do you figure, is it resentment or fear of her that drives the feelings about her closeness in terms of her counsel to the mayor, her husband? >> well, i think it's -- i think that until we wrote the story and maybe still there's this sort of confusion about what the nature of the relationship is. if he's saying she's his partner in everything and if he's putting her name at the top of the org chart in the campaign, what does that mean in terms of her role in city hall? that's a real question. so part of what the story does do is explore the nature of the partnership and how do you have a relationship where he's the mayor and she's his partner and she's not the mayor and what she's doing every day. >> but isn't there also a little element of fear in the sense that people perceive her rightly or wrongly has being more progressive of the mayor in
terms of her philosophy. >> i asked her about that. >> and if she has influence and pulling him that way, for people that don't agree, that's an element of fear. >> i asked her about that because that's some of the conventional wisdom that's out there, that she's the idealist, she's the true believer and he's the pragmatic politician and she keeps pulling him to the left. i said that's out there about you and she laughed. she said, you know, he's a pragmatist sometimes and i'm a pragmatist sometimes and he's an idealist sometimes and i'm an idealist sometimes and i would say it's a balancing act. and i did -- i did believe her. >> lisa miller, thank you so much. "new york" magazine's cover story on chirlane mccray is out now. laura brown, thank you as well. the latest issue of "harper's bazaar" is on newsstands now. >> who is that? >> kate winslet. >> oh, yeah, of course. >> looking lovely. >> as usual. coming up, it's the largest bank in the past 20 years to plead guilty to a u.s. criminal charge to the tune of $2.5

welcome back, everybody, to moore, oklahoma. as we continue to update you one year later from the tornado-ravaged region of moore, how this town is rebuilding, how the people have healed, how
they're coming back stronger than ever. i'm honored to bring into our coverage the republican governor of oklahoma, mary fallin. thanks for making time for us. i know it's a busy day. a day of reflection, a time to remember those who were lost but also a day to celebrate the healing that's going on. oklahoma remains one of seven states that does not have requirements to have mandated storm shelters for their schools. we're standing in front of plaza towers. seven children perished in this school last year. what type of advances and safety procedures can you assure to parents that you're making in a state like oklahoma that this won't happen again, that we won't lose children? >> we've done a lot of things and certainly today is a day we don't want to forget. there were some several tragedy that struck our state, loss of life, loss of children, loss of property, certainly injuries throughout our state. so what we've been doing is analyzing our schools. we've done an assessment of all
of our 1800 structures in our state to look at whether they have storm shelters, whether they don't. whether they have a safe place that's fortified or won't be fortified to be able to stand a normal tornado in the state of oklahoma and then we've been working on legislation that is going through that would allow a vote of the people to allow local school districts to have an increase in their bonding capacity if they reach their credit limit to be able to put in storm shelters or safe rooms. there are some schools that have storm shelters so they might want to put in safety precautions from, say, intruders who might come into their schools. we're hoping to get that done in the next week and a half. >> time is running out. how confident are you that you'll get that done because you're getting push back. >> i've been pushing really hard to get that bill to a vote of the people by the end of next week. it's very important. it's our only step that we have available to us in this legislative session to have the ability to put in storm shelters in our schools. >> you've been very vocal about
trying to keep everything on a local level, but when it comes to the federal level, we know there was support from the president, obviously support from fema and from the red cross. how has that been for the people of moore over the past 12 months as this community rebounds? >> fema has been great to work with in the recovery process itself. one of the things we have done in our state since 1999, we have utilized fema money that we have received over many different storms that we've had in our state and been able to put in 12,000 new individual storm shelters into homes through a matching grant program where people get about $2,000, match it with their own personal money, so we've put a lot of new storm shelters in our state. but this program that we've been talking about would allow our local communities to put shelters into the schools themselves. >> for you, you're running for re-election coming up in november. how i guess parental do you feel about fostering this rebuild, this regrowth for the community of moore? >> well, my husband and i have six children between us and i
can still remember coming up on this site the night of the tornado when it hit. it was about 11:00 at night. i drove up and all the first responders were moving stone by stone, brick by brick, sawing through the metal, having concrete jackhammers trying to see if there was anybody else under the debris itself. so as a mother, it's a very emotional issue for me that we do everything we can to give communities the opportunity to be able to decide what's best for their individual schools. what can they afford. how do they want to do it and to be able to enhance our safe rooms in our schools. >> well, we know that this is a resilient community, that's for sure. we can tell by all of the regrowth that we've seen over the year how much people love their community of moore, oklahoma. so it's so nice to have you. thanks for making time for us. we're going to let you get back to work because we know you have a very busy day. governor mary fallin, we appreciate it. we'll be back in a moment with what have we learned today, after this.
(mother vo) when i was pregnant... i got more advice than i knew what to do with. what i needed was information i could trust on how to take care of me and my baby. luckily, unitedhealthcare has a simple program that helps moms stay on track with their doctors and get the right care and guidance-before and after the baby is born. simple is good right now. (anncr vo) innovations that work for you. that's health in numbers. unitedhealthcare. that, my friends, is everything. and with the quicksilver card from capital one, you earn unlimited 1.5% cash back on everything you purchase.
not just "everything at the hardware store." not "everything, until you hit your cash back limit." quicksilver can earn you unlimited 1.5% cash back on everything you could possibly imagine. say it with me -- everything. one more time, everything! and with that in mind... what's in your wallet? and with that in mind... alright, that should just about do it. excuse me, what are you doing? uh, well we are fine tuning these small cells that improve coverage, capacity and quality of the network. it means you'll be able t post from the breakroom. great! did it hurt? when you fell from heaven (awkward laugh) ...a little.. (laughs) im sorry, i have to go. at&t is building you a better network. so when my moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis them. was also on display, i'd had it.
i finally had a serious talk with my dermatologist. this time, he prescribed humira-adalimumab. humira helps to clear the surface of my skin by actually working inside my body. in clinical trials, most adults with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis saw 75% skin clearance. and the majority of people were clear or almost clear in just 4 months. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal events, such as infections, lymphoma, or other types of cancer have happened. blood, liver and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure have occurred. before starting humira, your doctor should test you for tb. ask your doctor if you live in or have been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. tell your doctor if you have had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have symptoms such as fever, fatigue, cough, or sores. you should not start humira if you have any kind of infection. make the most of every moment.
ask your dermatologist about humira, today. clearer skin is possible. now to a consumer alert for cabela's customers. the outdoor retailer is recalling 1600 of these, jerky blasters. they say the battery charger adapter could overcharge, causing it to overheat and start a fire. >> thanks, eric.
critically important information, folks. the jerky blaster's battery charger adapter can overheat. also, there is something called a jerky blaster. time now to talk about what we learned today. mike barnicle. >> well, i learned america, treat yourself, by this book. >> great book. >> by the geist brothers, father and son. "good talk, dad," you'll have a million laughs this weekend. >> that was a great segment. >> you stole my line, america, buy this book. father-son. >> and i'm just going to point out the obvious, but it's just so interesting to hear the term used. i'm going to start using it too. we are two males and a female. >> mitch mcconnell. >> i am a female. i am a female news anchor. okay. that was a little bit out of touch. jen, did you think that was weird? just a -- hmm? talking about politicians as a female, what was she, a
neuroscientist. >> you wouldn't say let's go get a male on the show. >> no. we need more males. god, no. all right. if it's way too early, what time is it? it's time for "morning joe." now it's time for "the daily rundown" with chuck todd. have a good day, everyone. welcome to your primary day pregame. the biggest day of voting before november. kentucky's clash leads the way as mitch mcconnell and allison grimes talk like the general election is under way. we'll talk to matt bevin. we'll also talk to jack kingston about his hopes for a runoff in georgia and a look at why some notable '90s names want to head back to the house after so many years away. and does dynasty equal destiny? allison grimes isn't the only legacy candidate on the ballot, but how much can name sake knowledge pave a path to victory. good morning from washington. it's tuesday, may 20th, 2014. the day we've been waiting for for some time this year.
>> "saturday night live." thanks for inviting us into your home tonight. that's it for this "special report," fair, balanced and unafraid. greta goes "on the record" right now. >> i'm greta van susteren. this is "on the record." >> we have not yet extinguished man's darkest impulses. >> is this the p.c. presidency? >> islam is providing a disproportionate share of radical nut bags killing people right now. >> the president's comments on nigerian terrorists landing him in hot water, even from the left. >> there is no mention here of connecting this to the religion. >> bill maher on the attack. >> liberals do not stand up for liberalism. liberalism means one, mostly equality of women, free speech. no death threats. >> "on the record" investigates tonight and. >> what science tells bus the after life there is
none. when you die you are dead. >> atheists chaplains in the military how did that work? >> it's just total nonsense, the idea of having a chaplain who is an atheist. >> i have got 99 problems with [bleep] >> he has got 99 problems and this is one. beyonce's sister brutally attacking rapper jay-z. >> also, fired. a teacher breaks up this fight with a broom and now she is out of a job. and she is right here to go "on the record" tonight. up first is, there political correctness and is the obama administration tiptoeing around not wanting to offend radical islam. boko haram is a dangerous islamic group. the group has murdered more than 0,000 people and three weeks ago kidnapped 300 girls in my gearia, still have them. they are responsible for other horrific crimes.
why won't the white house just call out radical islam. the president's political correctness turk off some of his biggest supporters. >> there is no connecting this to the religion which is what i'm always seeking to do because i think that's the elephant in the room and in the religion at large, women are seen as property. >> islam as one of the great major religions is providing disproportionate share of radical nut bags killing people right now. >> let's look at how long we have had people running around making excuses to hurt other people. and islam is a part of that tradition but so has christianity has been. slavery. >> this is the 14th century, i would be coming down on the christians because that's when they were too violent. or the atheists. >> at this point religions and cultures change and the 14th century it was the christians but this isn't the 14th century. >> the vast majority of muslims terrorists it, does seem that the vast majority of terrorist incidents do involve some aspect of the
muslim world. you don't see a whole lot of buddhist suicide bombers. i'm still waiting for the koreans to show up. >> all the religions are the problem but especially this one. former ambassador john bolton. good evening. >> good evening. >> are we being too soft on radical islam in terms of how we speak about them? are we too afraid or gentle or politically incorrect? >> the administration and large parts of the american academic establishment are afraid to discuss radical islam and islamic terrorism because they operate under the mistaken view that if you use those words or talk about that threat that somehow you're insulting all of islam. i think that's wrong in several respects. number one, there is no such thing as the islamic world. it makes no more sense to talk about that than it does to talk about the christian world. people have different views and they have different experiences. and that's fundamentally what's wrong with this political correctness and
with bill maher's view of it, too. they are all wrong. they are all talking about identity politics. have you got your women and you have got your muslims and you have got your african-americans and those groups all think alike. that's fundamentally flawed. >> all right. well, the group boko haram is seeking to establish a pure islamic state and they want it ruled by sharia law. very punitive to women. extremely punitive to women. they attack christians, bomb churches, kidnappings. language about them people are just beginning to call them evil terrorists but they are not alone. >> no, this is part of the growing threat of terrorism and radical islam all across northern africa. why weren't they designated as a foreign terrorist organization some years ago? in part, i think from the administration spokesman they didn't want to say that a terrorist group in the largest country in africa. one out of four africans is
a nigerian was growing and becoming increasing threat because that would cut across the administration's political native that terrorism -- narrative that terrorism is no longer a war. >> brandizing university where they had selected a woman to be the commencement speaker who grew up in somalia and she made very harsh -- from personal experience, very harsh comments about radical islam and suddenly she was booted. >> >> she actually is the worst nightmare for those who practice identity politics. because she reasoned through that she couldn't be a muslim under any circumstances so she became an atheist. so she is a black female atheist conservative and that makes people's heads explode on the left that is the trouble with identity politics. you are not talking about
the merits of the issue. radical islam or terrorism. you are talking about whose identity trumps whose other's identity. that is fundamentally disliewcial. >> what is the danger of being politically correct or whatever we call it we all say right things. publicly maybe in private we are saying very different things. what's the harm to being politically correct? >> well, i think being a tolerant person is a good thing. that is a virtue. but when you insist on as they say in the left, contextualizing the base so being a woman trumps being a man or being white trumps being black or whatever it is, it do attaches from you reality and makes it impossible to address pending threats like the threat of boko haram kidnapping innocent girls for the sin of being educated. >> and, of course, that's just the tip of the iceberg with them. >> right. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> atheist group is demanding an atheist chaplain in the military. the group claims as more
atheists join the military they need somewhere to go for support. the department of defense is considering the change. is the d.o.d. being politically correct? joining us my colleague sean hannity. good evening, sean. >> good evening how are you. >> what do you think about this? >> i'm reading a story the group is preparing the military foorn atheist chaplain. you know, what i find about the left, this becomes political for me is that there is this intolerance towards people that have a faith that have religions and so we need equal time. we need fairness. i'm thinking we have got better things to do with our military than to appease those people that have special unique political agendas because they sore offended that you that chaplain available for men and women throughout fighting for their country in uniform and faith is very important to them. they make a mockery out of it i think it's high time we stand up and say enough. it's almost like this whole campaign against boko haram, terrorists don't read
twitter terrorists think it is ridiculous. it dovetails to me. >> what i'm so curious, if they claimed thasm was was a region-eye i'm not sure what an thas would do different than a courtroom. >> they don't agree with a higher being so there are psychologists available for those in the military, not faith-related and if they have those issues, they should be able to -- that should suffice for them if they needed any help or assistance. look, to me, this is a sort of an in your face, slap in the face to those people of faith. and they are trying to kind of advance a political agenda within the military
and obviously military discipline should transcend all of this. if you have got an ageneral darks the military is not the place to push it through. >> i think that's the primary issue. we are very respe everybody's beliefs, lack thereof. or whatever. the military really have a different beast. primary to everything is that we have to make sure that we have enormous discipline. not that we should exclude people. rather than fighting over certain other issues and sort of, you know, making problems that we don't necessarily need. we need discipline. >> you are spurring a thought here and i know you are covering tonight the boko haram issue too. my first comment is that, you know, you have got this bring back our girls, terrorists don't read twitter. and there is an uncall do you uncall could youableness. >> i think that's a lot of noise bring back our girls. noise is what we run on here. we start talking about it. the white house pays attention and capitol hill. i may be one of the few but
i think it's a effective way to create noise and buzz so people will pay attention to it. >> you might be right on your point. you have to think how do our enemies view this? and i'm thinking if they do hear about it, they don't care in the least. >> not in the least? >> they are the ones that matter. for example, if we really cared about sharia law, and its treatment of women, and, you know, for example, women can't drive. women can't be seen in public in saudi arabia without somebody that they are married to. they have the morality police. women are stoned to death in some countries. gays and lesbians are stoned to death. there are horrible treatment of women. they need four male eyewitnesses for rape. if we really cared about that then maybe we would identify certain incidents for what they are. and that would mean the president could have, instead of apologizing in cairo for america could have spoken out against radical islam. we could have called fort hood not work place violence but an act of terror. we could stop using
ridiculous euphemisms. >> don't get me started on sharia law. sean, thank you for joining us. see you at 10:00. >> i'm watching you at 7:00. i will continue to watch. >> good. harvard university where satanic black mass is happening in just minutes. rocking harvard. the archdiocese of boston and catholics around the global. the event was scheduled to be on campus, a few hours ago the harvard group moved the black mass off harvard's campus to undisclosed location. harvard student aurora joins us. she is the former president of harvard catholic students. thank you for joining us. >> of course, happy to be here, greta. >> now, apparently you have got this sort of moving black mass. do you have any idea where this mass is tonight? according to the latest crimson reports i'm aware of, the negotiations did fall through from that nightclub in central square. so we're hoping that the whole thing just gets
cancelled. the worst case scenario would that be they try to get it back on campus. >> you have had any chance to talk to the president of the university or anybody in the hierarchy on campus? >> well, in fact, i had submitted a letter to president drew fouts this morning. with the nearly 60,000 names of people who objected to this hateful event. i have not received a personal response from president faust. her public response has been that she is personally dismayed that any cultural group would undertake something so offensive. but i have not heard from her further. >> each going to talk abouting it. how do you reconcile this with the first amendment? >> sure. well, greta, i don't think this is an issue of free speech. we are talking about a private institution which has defined its free speech as being limited by anything that dishonors another
person's religion. it says that that is contrary to the balance of rights that the university promotes. and so i think according to the university's own definition, this is not something that is acceptable interesting how the hierarchy university didn't toss them off campus. they chose. if you go i nine miles downtown road at brandeis, they threw out their commencement speaker saying antagonistic things to radical islam. nine miles down the road and you have got these two important universities with very different views on in this. >> that's right. greta there are a number of inconsistent messages being sent by harvard in this situation. but i think it's important that we respond to what's actually happening on our campus. >> we only have 30 seconds left. where do you think they are going? are they going undercover or
underground? it's interesting. we have been chasing them for the last 90 minutes we have had reporters up there. >> hopefully, they are going away. that's where they are going. but we will, i guess we will have to see. i will see when i get back on campus soon. i myself will be at the holy hour at saint paul's. >> well, thank you. we'll be watching to see what's going on tonight. >> thanks for having me on, greta. >> thank you. okay. let's all go off-the-record for just a second. in just moments, near harvard university some mean-spirited students will be exercising first amendment right by insulting catholics, not just at harvard but around the globe. about to start a satanic mass which they know is deeply offensive to catholics. justification? to put the spotlight on the first amendment. what do i think? frankly i think they are awful. plus they are cowferred. they know when you offend the catholics this way the catholic also pray for them. that's pretty safe. the catholics would never
dare put the spotlight on the first amendment if that's what they want to do by burning the koran. they wouldn't get prayers but something else in return. a big something else. i'm certainly not suggesting to burn the koran. get that straight. just making an example. calling out this group. frauds, cowards. not first amendment advocates. first amendment also includes the freedom of religion. people advocate for the first amendment and want to celebrate it would not use just one clause of the amendment to stifle or intimidate another part of that same amendment. just because you have a first amendment right to do something remember, that doesn't mean you should. in some instances it even means you might be mean and rotten and this might be and this is one of those. that's my off-the-record comment tonight. right now, former treasury secretary tim geithner firing shots from everyone from the white house to the -- claims the white house told him to mislead the american people on the sunday morning shows by falsely saying that social security does not contribute to the deficit.
joining us our political panel, washington examiner susan ferrechio of the "the washington post" jacqueline kucinich and josh mccormick. this has set people on fire today. waking up to tim geithner but then there has been dial-back. >> yeah. an administration lying to the american people should always be shocking. but this isn't really too surprising. >> is this a lie? >> i think it counts as a lie that they know it wasn't contributing to the deficit. geithner couch it and caveat it. the administration is continually down played the entitlement crisis in america. a little more than a decade. spending on medicare, medicaid, social security, and interest will take up every single penny that we're taking n tax dollars. the administration has tillablely down played that fact. not offered really -- any real solutions and demagogued republicans like the house republicans in 2011 with paul ryan's plan to reform medicare. take away your grandmother's healthcare. this isn't too surprising given the track record. >> jackie, good for
secretary geithner at least how he reports it, he stood up to pressure to the white house to make what is now being said a mispleading statement. interesting side part of this is that he also said something about an economic advisor on the romney campaign and that economic advisor is saying that geithner's line about what he said. there is a lot of line pointing going on tonight. >> these memoirs across the board are a way for these administration officials to shape history. it's their version of events. we have had quite a few of them. we have had gates, we have hillary clinton's coming out. when you have memoirs you have disagreement. one person's point of view. you know, these days it seems if we wait long enough, the other person will have a memoir so maybe we have more than 360-degree view of how things actually happened. >> is this confusion of bad memory or is this deceitful? i mean, if they were trying to get geithner to go out and say this on the morning shows. we'll all know they have a bad reputation with sending people on morning shows right now at least as far as susan rice, is this
deceitful or just confusion and the stakes? and memories? >> there is always a he said, she said. but, if you look at -- i see it as part of a pattern. if you look at the talk show he transcripts. geithner appeared oon a they talk about social security. on abc, he is asked specifically whether there are going to be cuts to social security. he kind of talks around it. he doesn't say. no i don't think he gives the answer the administration wants but you can hear him trying to couch it in a way to show that it's not going to be part of the fiscal cliff. >> i hate that have the couric to say what you think, right? >> then i say let's connect this to benghazi which everyone might think is crazy. well, i have always wondered why hillary clinton wasn't the one who appeared on the talk show. she said she didn't like doing sunday talk shows. an ambassador was killed. first ambassador in more than three decades. she is the secretary of state. she doesn't go on the sunday talk shows. she know as lot. who do they put on, susan rice who pretty much knew nothing. she ♪ going to give them any push back over what's really
going on it might have been easier. it makes me wonder further why she was the one to go on. i do think it's part -- if you put those two things together and you look at the drafings the way it worries about what everyone thinks versus what reality is like you can keep your doctor and health plan, to me, it does look like if you put everything together, a pattern. and it's a pattern of, like you say, deceit. >> all right, panel. thank you. and u.s. senator tim scott taking hit for being a republican who is black. the clummist behind this latest attack here here to go "on the record." a teacher whipping out a broom and breaking up a dangerous school fight. she out of a job but not staying silent. she is here to tell her story straight ahead. a simple q: in retirement, will you outlive your money? uhhh. no, that can't happen. that's the thing, you don't know how long it has to last.

>> lower the bar for blacks. some people have are been glassing the article for calling senator scott nothing more than affirmative action token. wasn't you that had the token in the headline. but as everything goes viral. you write the story and then the next story has is calling senator scott a token but nonetheless. your article was rather march on senator scott, why? actually it wasn't harsh on senator scott and wasn't terrifically about senator scott. ambassador bolten was on earlier talking about the difficulties of identity politics. and that's something that republicans haven't really dealt with too much. it hasn't been a problem for them as the party
diversifies. i have decided to look at the case of senator scott. almost like intellectual exercise, if it were in the parties' favor to sort of close out a primary and help him win would think do that on the sense of race? after looking at it i concluded that should -- would they do it they should do it. this has been blown out of proportion when you combine the internet plus racial politics and speculation. i suppose some people should think i get what i deserve what i was saying history of appointed senator is not typically successful. one in five senators appointed other the last 100 years or so when they run in the primaries they lose. he was appointed by a
governor not particularly popular herself. there has been a lot of primaries in the republic party recently. most of those have occurred from the right with tea party candidates running across so-called mainstream conservatives. i wanted to look at the idea that maybe it would be in the republican party's benefit -- what the party does in lots of instances is clear the field for a preferred candidate. i was looking at the idea who is running for primaries. senator lindsey graham up for election in november. he drew a whole field of primary challengers which senator scott did. one of the reasons senator lindsey graham did this he has a 38.9% disapproval rate whereas senator tim scott has only a 17.6%. if i were going to choose to run against one of them. i would choose to run against the one with the
lousier approval rating. >> i'm not so sure i would senator scott is not very well known. >> is he popular. one of the other things i thought and we only have 30 seconds left. i read your article. then the next article after it bloomberg affirmative action token. that's insulting. that wasn't your title. that's the problem when we have a lot of these discussions you start with one and may want to have a good discussion about it but it certainly gets explosive and sometimes not in a way that generates a good debate or discussion. >> i couldn't agree with you more. >> thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> and straight ahead. a teacher gets the ax after using a broom to stop a violent classroom fight. i'm on the teacher side. jay-z getting a beatdown. and we got it all caught on camera. you won't believe what his connection is to his own wife bon save. ?

a high school teacher fired for breaking up a classroom brawl with a broom stick. it was all caught on camera. >> get off! get off! get off! that video is drumming up support for the fired teacher. tiffany, i have got to tell you right from the get-go, i'm so on your side on this. what in the world were you supposed to do when two people stop fighting and you can't stop them. what does the school say you are supposed to do it's a widely known fact we should let them fight. call security. stand back and let them fight. >> well, call security walkie-talkies outcome walkie talks didn't work.
right? >> what is she supposed to do at this point? send smoke signals up through the -- over the transsem? what in the world? this is so ridiculous. trying to break them up? >> it seems like that's what they are asking for called in the walking talky. she thought it was working. security didn't show up. shortly after she called again on the walkie-talkie nobody showed up there were students in the classroom about to get physically injured. not only the two that were fighting. the other had the guy's head down to the ground. he could have killed him or done great bodily harm. additionally could have injured other kids in the classroom. desks flying. classroom equipment flying around. tiffany took the matter into her own hands and in the result protect the students. >> it says you are expected to do what is necessary to
diffuse the situation. i think just sitting there and waiting for security to show up when they don't have a walkie-talkie is not doing what's necessary. tiffany, i want you to listen to a message from the student you hit with the broom. >> she is my favorite teacher. i think it could have went the other way around. she could have called for the security and waited for the security to get there. but she ain't wait. so i think she deserve. >> tiffany, your reaction? >> i believe it's easy to say that if you are winning and on the top. i can't return the sentiment. i have known him three weeks prior to the incident. >> tiffany, for the life of me, i actually thought picking up the broom was pretty smart. if you protected yourself, you could try to stop it it obviously you couldn't break
it up. the nuns used to hit us with rulers all the time so a few little whacks wasn't so fatal, i didn't think. are you going to get your job back, tiffany? >> that's currently, greta, what we are negotiating right now. i have been in contact with the eaa and with the general council we're in contact with them to rectify the situation and to right the wrong. >> is there a teacher -- flu a teacher union, tiffany? >>. no the eaa does not have a union. >> tiffany i take it you want to go back to your classroom. >> i love my students. even though this incident occurred i still feel the same way about them. >> what were they fighting about, by the way? do you know, tiffany? >> it came out after the fight, and i had questioned some of the students, they told me it was over a
designer belt. >> well, tiffany, i'm on your side on this one. jeffrey, i hope you can work some magic and get it back. i don't know what the world she is supposed to do otherwise. tiffany thank you very much for joining us, jeffrey as well. thank you. okay, everyone, here is what is being hard out right now. trending on facebook even at this very moment. this photo tweeted by the director of the highly anticipated upcoming movie batman vs. superman. zach snyder gives a pick of the bat mobile. could be time to pull the tarp, tomorrow? what do you think of this sneak peek? and legendary dj casey case sum in missing. trending on twitter at this moment. a judge ordering an investigation into the whereabouts of the former top 40 host after the radio personality's host said he had been removed from the country. and right here in

gross manage misment. and of course there is also a political agenda there which we saw when they were doing the targeting of the conservative group. >> i should add they have a relatively new commissioner. they gave us a statement tonight and saying they are still trying to assess these numbers in the report that gave rise to it aggressive effort to consolidate office space and reduce overhead rent cost. so equipment is more than 20 years would o. actually, i read the whole statement which i will put on gretawire is pathetic at best. >> about $100 million? really? for office furniture? >> i have been saying. >> and 1.2 billion-dollar, you know, request this year increase in funding from congress in light. >> almost 8% more. >> in light of all these problems and all this mismanagement. it takes an incredible amount of hutzpah to come up and do this. >> how come in the republicans democrats, independence anything, bernie san drs, why isn't everybody just screaming about this and why aren't the people at home screaming about it to their members of
congress? >> i think that at least is the case with the current administration all the problems with the irs has been building for years that. >> may be true. the other thing, the story that you referenced earlier, 90,000 employees does it really take 90,000 employees and 12.5 billion-dollar budget to collect the american people's taxes? this is a government, a bureaucracy that's gotten way too big and run amuck. >> so what you can do? because there isn't a single american out there who wants $100 million, at least i don't think, spent on fuiture that doesn't need to be spent. i don't think they want people to be getting bonuses when they work there and they owe back taxes. at least hold their bonuses and apply it to their back taxes. why isn't something being done? >> and you did mention the travel, the trips, you know, with all the objection 00 particular and the targeting. >> you know, all those things, i think, point to
just a systemic problem with the agency. they have got a new commissioner. he says he is trying to clean things up. the american people need to have some accountability. we filed some bills. i filed a bill along with mike enzi and pat roberts that would prevent the irs from paying bonuses to people who are delinquent on their taxes. straightforward issue. >> much bigger than that if you are late five days on your taxes, and paying taxes and penalty and everything else there has got to be something much more aggressive than just a bill here and there to it solve a problem. this is a bigger problem. >> well, and i think the best way to probably get at that time is through the appropriations process and that's the oversight the congress has. they have to come and request funding every year and they asked us for this 1.2 billion-dollar increase, 7% increase over the previous year in light of all these problems. that's the way i think congress can really get hold of this situation. >> oversight, they have already spent the 100 million. that's after sight. that's not oversight. we oversight prevents any of that from happening. i'm taking the last word on
that. senator, thank you. >> fair enough, thank you. thanks, greta. >> we should all be alert but not panicked. a deadly virus is popping up in the united states. a new case of mers just detected. alexandria joins us. stwhr new case of mers? >> the cdc announced earlier today that the second case of mers in the u.s. has been confirmed in florida. like the first case with the patient in indiana, the patient lives? saudi arabia and is a health worker there and is, in fact, visiting family in the u.s. how contagi >> in the family of the common cold and sars. much less contagious. what would know about this virus is that human transmission appears to only happen if a person has direct contact with somebody who is infected so. that can mean caring for the person in their home or in a healthcare setting.
you mentioned' same as the common cold. we all get over this unless fragile. why is this particularly potent and dangerous? >> there is concern because there is no vaccine for mers and also there is no known cure it is failings in some cases there are about 500 reported cases of mers worldwide. and 100 of those have resulted in death. but it really depends on the person's health who contracts the disease. for instance, the indiana patient has already been discharged from the hospital and we hear that the patient in florida is actually in stable condition. >> alexandria a thank you. we will continue to watch this. thank you. >> thank you very much. >> and straight ahead. who can forget these pictures of russian president putin up on a homplets you won't believe what he is doing now. the must-see video is next. vicious attack caught on camera. star jay-z getting whacked. yes. you know the song the 9

because nobody is incompetent as it's showing. people are flowing through mexico. they are flowing through like crazy. hearing tors all meet up in the united states and get plenty from the united states. horrible problem for children. no question about it. >> are you saying that president obama these are children. it's going to be like 8 or 10 years before anyone anyone would be of age before they got citizenship. it is an awful long vision. president obama not only children that are coming through. watch what's going on. it's also a lot of other people that are coming. coming for years. through mexico. by the way, you can not become a citizen of mexico if you are not already there one of the toughest policies of anybody. mexico is called the highway to the united united states.
all you have to do, if we had the proper leadership. they would call or speak to mexico and the leadership of mexico and, believe me, it would stop quickly. we give mexico so much in terms of economic development in terms of jobs. we give tax abatement if you open up in mexico. it's ridiculous but we give it with all that we give them. we can't even get our soldier that you cover probably better than anybody, we can't even get our marine out of prison and he is being beat to hell in mexico prisons. he is the only one that can't get into the united states from mexico. >> well, in light of the fact that immigration policy is supposed to be set on the national level, at least that's what the courts say and that's what the president says and everybody else says. do you think that the president of the united states should be headed off to march that's vineyard, the house and the senate taking their five week vacation, when they have crisis: they themselves cause themselves by not setting a policy. should they go on vacations when they have work?
>> well, you have more than one problem in this country. this is one. this is a a beauty. but you have many problems all over the world. and the united states is involved in many of them. not any of them are getting solved. you look at what happened with the wealth of families when they are down 30, 35% from what they were many years ago. the family's wealth in this country is way down from what it was. you look at the things that are going on in the united states, and very soon we are not going to be a a great country anymore there are those that say we are not already. i would say a five week vacation is is a long time. i would say that if the country is in trouble, and it is in serious trouble, i guess you are supposed to be working. >> what do you make of mayor rahm immanuel. he wants to expand the number to bring into chicago, some of these children. >> well, it's, again, it's the wrong signal. look, i love chicago as a city. chicago is getting a very, very terrible wrap. they have a lot of problems in chicago with the guns and everything else.
it's confined to certain sections. nobody talks about that chicago is a city that i happen to have property in chicago. and i love chicago. and it's really a great city in many ways. but it's going through a very big problem. i don't think this is sending out the right signal, absolutely. i would mall he wished he didn't say it it's wrong time for him to be be saying that as the mayor of chicago, unfortunately there. be later donald trump and the nfl. is he buying a team? and s. it yours in the donald tells you himself in a bit. the third in a number of children pouring into cities across the united states showing no signs of slowing down. now a massive shelter could be built in west texas making it the largest detention center in the united states. fox news joshua is in clint, texas right now. joshua, is that where the plan is to build one? >> yeah. absolutely, greta. we're just outside of the town of clinton here. it's a very small town here in west texas. just off the i-10 here.
the interstate. and it would, in fact, be the largest shelter in the country housing more than 3500 undocumented, unaccompanied minors. and as we have been reporting, of course, all of them coming from central america here. this facility, i have been talking to officials here with the texas department of family and protective services. they said they have never heard of anything like this here. and, in fact, they have the application to get this thing started but they really can't do much about it because, as you just mentioned, there is nothing behind me right here. once it is built, they can start inspecting it. but they also have to get it fully stawfd. standoff, -- staffing would be huge. equates to more than 400 people that would to be hired here to get this thing started. >> all right, joshua. texas is a big state. i don't need to tell it you there must be dozens of empty buildings in texas. can't they find an empty building in texas, number one, so you don't just spend like a year building one and
plus we don't have to be wasteful. secondly, is it a texan company? does somebody have a contract to build this? what's the story on this? >> as far we know, we do not knw the name of the company that would build this potential shelter here. it's out of new york, from what we understand here. now, you bring up a great point here. the mayor of clint. again, this is outside of the town of clint brought that up. he is like we have gotten toes of unoccupied buildings that could be used here to shelter these migrant children here. but it's just a matter of figuring out the best way to do it. of course, is he going to be working with local state and national officials to try to figure that out as well. again, greta, a lot of this just in the proposal stage. the exploratory stage here. and, of course, we are working to get more answers here to bring that of course, to your viewers. >> all right. well i can't imagine they can't find some abandoned college with a dormitory they could fix up or a nursing home that's gone under or something. but instead they have got to get a company out of new
york and build something brand new. go figure. joshua. >> go figure. >> 800 miles of our border is unpatrolled. why in the hill joins us. >> hi, greta. >> totally unpatrolled? >> that's sort of the question that i looked at for the story. you know, 800 or so miles of the border, which accounts for about 440% of our southern border with mexico, is federally owned land it be wilderness, refuges, monuments. the boiler patrol officers from customs and boiler protection aren't able to get in there and do their jobs. >> why not? if we own the land and these are our federal border patrol, is it -- i mean, is there a problem? are they going to like -- wildlife is going to leave the area? i mean, you know, what's the problem? >> well, the problem is a lot of this land is set aside as, you know, as
wilderness. but, you know, the democrats who are looking at this issue say they don't really see the problem here because there is a memorandum of understanding between the department of the interior, which oversees most of this land and custom and border protection that says they have to work together towards their goals of protecting the border. protecting the environment. all of these things. why aren't they doing it. how about doing it? >> well, you know, a lot of people. a lot of people say they are doing. the republicans in the house have put forward a proposal that would make it even clearer that customs and border protection takes priority over the department of interior and the department of agriculture. trucks in there. can we build a road can we put. make it clear that securing the border is a priority.
>> what year does this date back to by the way any idea? >> this is 2006. >> this is in the bush 43 administration and obama administration is enforcing or has the responsibility to try to fix and make it work with congress? >> um-huh. yes. exactly. so, and it arose in the last connect at a cass securing the border at the time homeland stuart thought they needed more authority to do what they needed to republicans in the house and senate don't think that's working well enough to secure the border. >> if they just all sort of walked across the hill or walked across the hall or drove down the street they probably could work this out one way or the other if they ever bothered, right? >> they probably could. >> what a town. anyway. thank you very much, timothy. >> thank you, greta. now a disturbing prediction. chairman of the house homeland security committee saying children are likely to die they u.s. border. thousands and thousands of
children as temperatures arise in joining us is sean more ran. nice to talk to you sean. children health crisis, is it not? >> it is. this is something that we see every year and prepare for with our search and rescue teams. anywhere along the southwest border and even in some parts of our northern border, you can succumb exposure easily. >> i suppose these kids are going to come in across, unaccompanied minors, coyotes bringing them across are not great caregivers, are they? they are not particularly concerned? >>. no the only thick they are concerned about -- thing they are concerned about is getting paid. it shows in their tactics. if they were concerned with the healthcare they would have them surrender at a point of entry.
inted surrender to border agents so cartels can move their drugs around the periphery and make profits. >> this has always been a problem. now with the surge of children, it's going to be a larger problem. and so what is mexico doing? because they are coming through mexico. are they providing any water or any help to these children? >> you know, that, i don't know. in the past they have had a group called group obeta which was there to assist illegal aliens waiting to cross into the u.s. the border patrol has gone a long way in the past 20 years to get search and rescue teams, emts, paramedics in place. more air assets so that they can assist and have agents there should somebody get into distress from the heat or any type of exposure. >> well, imagine how much less a burden it would be on our border patrol, with these children coming up, dehydrated and very sick if mexico did something more?
because it's a long journey through mexico. mexico is very hot. so, and we have no information if mexico is in any way trying to at least alleviate some of the humanitarian crisis to make the journey. is that where we are? >> that's correct. it would be good if mexico did something to disrupt the flow of people coming through its country trying to get to the united states. but, you know, border patrol agents, we will be on duty. we don't take five weeks off. we will be here doing our jobs and that includes rescuing people. especially kids who probably don't know survival skills and, you know, are going through a very difficult, difficult period trying to get into the u.s. >> and i applaud all of you for not taking five weeks off. it wasn't humanitarian crisis that you created by not doing your job. you are actually trying to pick up the pieces because our politicians didn't do their job. so, anyway, thank you and good luck to you and also your colleagues, thank you. >> thank you very much.
>> and developing now, a fatal virus ebola, two americans in liberia and part of samaritans purse just diagnosed. extremely contagious and deadly virus is already killing hundreds in africa. it's uncontained and spreading from person to person and now country to country. prince joins us from liberia. how serious is it and how frightened are people just in liberia? >> well, the government of liberia has reported that more than 129 has died from the ebola disease. two americans. right war contracted the virus while helping to spawnt the outbreak of the ebola. in addition, capital
brisbane died four nights ago from ebola and was buried in his township. the outbreak is -- government has also reported that more than 200 people are confirmed to have the disease in the country. today, president philippe met with ---task force the disease. the surrounding communities everybody is scared. everybody is scared of the outbreak of the disease. even today in my own community, several cases were confirmed positive of the ebola disease. so it is a fear and people continuing to die on a daily basis from the disease in liberia. >> of course, you have got the situation where someone
just left liberia on a plane the other day, i think works for the government of liberia, got to nigeria and died there, right? >> confirmed, yes. lie beerian traveled by aircraft who went to nigeria. it was confirmed that he died from the ebola disease. so right now the -- passengers coming into the country to make sure they screen all the passengers. and comes down with the symptoms of the disease, you will not be allowed to out of the country. >> thank you very much for joining us. that doesn't take into account there is an incubation period people don't know they have it how
wickedly contagious it is and fatal. thank you very much, sir. this weekend on gretawire we started reporting the news of this ebola outbreak. we will continue to follow this health crisis right here on the "on the record" and of course on gretawire.com. former secretary of state hillary clinton said, what? well, the 2016 frontrunner hillary clinton giving praise to president bush 43 and seemingly snubbing president obama. why is she praising president bush 43? you will hear it yourself in just moments. right now there are explosions in gaza. take you there live in minutes. learning tonight of new reports of tension between president obama and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu. the inside story straight ahead. she inspires you. no question about that. but your erectile dysfunction - that could be a question of blood flow. cialis tadalafil for daily use helps you be ready anytime the moment's right. you can be more confident in your ability to be ready. and the same cialis is the only daily ed tablet approved to treat ed and symptoms of bph,

democratic presidential frontrunner hillary clinton sending shock waves with this praise for former president george w. bush. >> george w. bush is very popular in subis a heroin africa, why? because of the emergency program whether you agreer disagree with a lot of what else he did and i disagreed with a lot of it. i am proud to be an american: people say. i want to thank president bush the united states h.i.v. aids. >> joining us our political panel abc political director rick klein wes lowery and washington examiner byron york. they join us. byron, she took a back hand slap at president obama, too. >> she spent a lot of time talking about how the president faces very difficult problems in the united states. hasn't done a good enough job or this or that. you can take that as a back handed criticism of the president. as far as bush is concerned. i have to take bush is
concerned. something rather common for democrats to say. if you ask a democrat to say something good about george w. bush, they will kind of gag for a while and then they will say he did a really good thing with aids in africa. it's quite common for them to it praise this program. >> i should also add, wes that she defended president obama's golfing, you know, because she was also asked about that the president golfs a lot and she was good loyal democrat on the golf. >> definitely. i have to agree that it wasn't very surprising praise for president bush. i will note, actually i think moving forward as we get closer to 2016 we will see much more praise for george w. bush than we did in the last cycle. more of it will be coming from the right as people like paul ryan and rand paul try to the conservatism bush was elected on in 2000. it certainly didn't surprise me to see her throwing that bone to president bush, but certainly i can't imagine her praising him much more than she pays praises
president obama as we move forward. >> rick? >> any policy condenses between clinton and bush is coincidental. there is no strategy here for hillary clinton to pursue the presidency by running as a successor in any way to george w. bush. she is likely to find some areas to praise, to be a little bit even handed. but clearly she is much more closely aligned with president obama. that's not go to change. >> is is she running to the left of president obama or to the right of president obama? >> this is an intriguing choice, right? because the way that president obama came on the scene as senator obama basically to her left. a lot of the disappointments that liberals feel are on the left. any vulnerability that hillary clinton has in a democratic primary. she knows something about being vulnerable in the democratic primary there on the left. find some issue areas on the left even as she talks about foreign policy and other areas that may be hitting on the right. >> by the way, her husband played a lot of golf in the white house. that's another thing to remember. but, the part about the left, you know, we saw a really striking contrast, this past couple -- a week
ago when president clinton said of his wife, you know, she needs some time this think through what she really would want to do if she were going to run for president. >> if my husband said that she needs time to think home. he needs time at home. >> at the same time elizabeth warren delivering a speech a lefty activist group. giving a very stirring speech with a 11 point agenda of what she would do. she doesn't say she was running for president. but it was pretty clear that those principles would guide her as a president. so that contrast between the energy on the left and hillary clinton was really striking last week. >> and, of course, now we have got governor o'malley in the mix, too. >> of course. >> he at least it looks like it out in iowa this weekend. >> definitely. you want to talk about people who are drawing distance between themselves and president obama he would be the example of that especially on immigration. the democratic field starts to shape up. we will start to see people looking at president obama, and seeing that his approval
ratings on the left are still solid but are falling at times. they are going to be trying to pick their points of difference from the president. >> i think the fact that mark udall out in california didn't -- colorado didn't want to be with imhad. he didn't want him fund raising with him. >> you want the money but not seen with him. that's going to be par for the course, so to speak in golf. golf analogy for the rest of the cycle. >> spaniel panel stay with us. is tension building between president obama and prime minister benjamin netanyahu? president mike rogers says it's getting tense. that's next. donald trump getting serious about sports. not a new golf course not this time. his eye is on sundays this time and the nfl which team is donald trying to scoop up. donald will tell you next. a body at rest tends to stay at rest...
while a body in motion tends to stay in motion. staying active can ease arthritis symptoms. but if you have arthritis, this can be difficult. prescription celebrex can help relieve arthritis pain, and improve daily physical function so moving is easier. because just one 200mg celebrex a day can provide 24 hour relief for many with arthritis pain. and it's not a narcotic you and your doctor should balance the benefits with the risks. all prescription nsaids, like celebrex, ibuprofen, naproxen and meloxicam have the same cardiovascular warning.
they all may increase the chance of heart attack or stroke, which can lead to death. this chance increases if you have heart disease or risk factors such as high blood pressure or when nsaids are taken for long periods. nsaids, like celebrex, increase the chance of serious skin or allergic reactions, or stomach and intestine problems, such as bleeding and ulcers, which can occur without warning and may cause death. patients also taking aspirin and the elderly are at increased risk for stomach bleeding and ulcers. don't take celebrex if you have bleeding in the stomach or intestine, or had an asthma attack, hives, other allergies to aspirin, nsaids or sulfonamides. get help right away if you have swelling of the face or throat, or trouble breathing. tell your doctor your medical history. and ask your doctor about celebrex. for a body in motion. when folks think about wthey think salmon and energy. but the energy bp produces up here creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs.

explosions and gunfire killed in combat. nine children killed in a park attack. hamas to plane for the children's attack israelis. israelis are aiming back. they are denying the specific attack claiming it was hamas. most likely a failed hamas missile launch. fox news correspondent conor powell live in gaza city. conor, what are the latest developments? >> well, greta, we are seeing some the heaviest fighting and bombardment that we have seen since we have been here in the last week or so. it was relatively quiet this weekend as there was a series of formallenned phone mall cease fires. that changed earlier tonight
just as it was getting dark, pounding gaza. also continuing to see hamas rockets being fired a few minutes ago. we saw one if not two fired from gaza into israel. but there has just been a constant pounding of artillery here in gaza. we are seeing seeing it in different parts that we haven't seen in the past. of course, citizens, civilians are caught in this in the middle. a strike on gaza's largest hospital. 10 people killed. at least 8 of those were children. back and forth about who actually caused it. this was in fact israeli air strike. seeing heavier and heavier fighting and civilians, greta, still very much caught in the middle. >> indeed they are. conor, thank you. >> fighting is escalating in
gaza. so far secretary of state john kerry unable it to broker a cease-fire and tonight there is news of tensions rising between. between president obama and israeli prime minister. good evening, greta. closest allies. why do you say that there is friction between the two? >> well, i don't think it's newly caused by this particular conflict. if you look back, there has just been some uneasy times clearly between the prime minister and president obama. if you look back at 2009 in the president's cairo speech when he talked about the settlements of israel being illegitimate completely caught our israeli allies by surprise. in 2011, he surprised them again when he announced that he was -- would go back to the 67 borders for any
negotiations going forward, which is a huge security concern for israel those uncertainties halittle frictione way. in this particular case, you know, the tactic of getting a cease-fire, to me has been a little bit suspect. you want to do these things -- you want to pull the parties in and try to hash it out without going to the press, without making a public statement about who ho is right and who is wrong going into this. israel is literally fighting for its very life and existence here. and they need a little space on the security front and i think there are some things that hamas wants that can probably work into some agreement. you can't do that if you start to take sides early on in this this is a situation many have struggled with it. does it make it any more
difficult or is everyone sort of bypassing the friction and, at least is, there some smart strategy to go forward to try to resolve which is almost the impossible? >> well, again, hamas is changing its demands and what it needs for a cease-fire, that's problematic. israel has some very certain security needs. counter tunneling is incredibly important. i think they have identified over 30. they have closed a portion of them but not all of them because it's a complicated process to do that so, these represent a very clear and real threat to the safety and security of israel. remember, it's believed that some of these students a part of the kidnap operation and brutal murder of those teenagers happened through some of these tunnel networks. this is incredibly important to their national security it has to be a part of the discussion. you can't just say we are going to have a cease-fire and not account for those security concerns. and these rocket forces if you will of the military wing of hamas.
>> chairman, assume that hamas won't agree to a cease-fire request do we go from here? israel is going to degrade the military wing of hamas. they have to do that this is about the third time since i want to say around -- well, in the last few years that there has been an exchange, hamas fires missiles, israel are reacts to that better trained military wing of hamas. that's concerning. concerning for you will of a us. i think they believe they have to degrade the military capability of hamas in order to get a cease-fire in a settlement where they get permanent peace between israel and gaza there is a lot of issues to work through. you can get to a cease-fire in this that i think would meet both standards. >> all right. in order to degrade. at what point does hamas cry
uncle? they are getting pummeled and pummeled with the superior military strength with israel. what is it that is going to get hamas, how far are we going to go with this not we israel? >> sure, well, they want certain conditions. they certainly want border crossings. they want the free flow of goods and services, again, security concern for israel about them rearming and reequipping. so they both have a set of demands, both hope to get an objective done before there is a cease-fire. and i think that's important to understand that israel, to degrade the wing military wing of hamas and hamas to get some concessions on the free flow of goods and border crossings and other things that they believe help empower them. so, that's where you are at. i think you will will see military -- military wing of hamas. then i think you will see a much more concerted effort to try to find a cease-fire.
i think hamas is going to keep going. as long as they believe that public opinion is going their way. remember, they are taking civilian casualties because they are fighting from civilian populations in a way that is irresponsible and dangerous for the lives of the people they supposedly care about. >> mr. chairman, thank you, sir. >> thanks. >> and coming up, senator lindsey graham blasting the united nations calling the organization anti-semitic. senator lindsey graham is here next. plus, donald trump. is is he red dr. to cut a a check to buy an nfl team? and is it your team? donald trump will tell you next. reat thing about all this walking i've been doing is that it's given me time to reflect on some of life's biggest questions. like, if you could save hundreds on car insurance by making one simple call, why wouldn't you make that call? see, the only thing i can think of is that you can't get any... bars. ah, that's better. it's a beautiful view. i wonder if i can see mt. rushmore from here.

not abiding by these principles may amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity. >> all the other countries there, you can imagine something nothing. >> the u.n. human rights report a joke. >> calling the u.n. anti-sem semitic and a joke. >> you back off that for one second, do you. >> no. there is anti-semitism flourishing all through europe and spreading throughout the world. the human rights resolution the human rights committee passed was written by hamas. >> there is no secret to that they admit it? >> 27 to 1. we are the only country voting no. and 17 countries abstained, germany, france, great britain, the resolution made me sick to my stomach. can i read you this one sentence? >> yes. >> deploring the massive
israeli military operation in the occupied palestinian territory, including east jerusalem since 13 june 2014 which have involved disproportionate and indiscriminate attacks and resulted in grave violation of the human rights of the palestinian civilian population. 1600 words and one half of one sentence talks about israel and never mentions hamas. hamas, greta, has a goal. not for two state solution but to destroy israel. >> two things. one is disproportionate issue is a little bit odd to me in war. like some sort of game like we are supposed to have even teams. that's a little weird. >> 2500 rockets have been fired since the conflict started. hamas is trying to kill israeli civilians the israeli government is trying their best not to kill citizens. >> i have a video of hamas leaders urging the population to go to the areas that israel is about
to bomb and bare your chest and become martyrs for the causes a israel drops leaflets to evacuate an area. the leadership of hamas is saying go to that area, get on top of the buildings and bare your chest to the enemy the u.n. i expect to be sort of feckless. they have never done anything. the most appalling thing to me on this is germany. all these european countries essentially voting president. they don't even have the guts to vote yes or no or this resolution. >> who would you want to be your neighbor? hamas or israel? israel is not a perfect country. no one is. >> there is no more moral equivalency. >> why are they voting present. >> media. >> they have historic national opinion they ought to worry about. >> this resolution passed by the human rights committee within the united states was author why hamas and great
democracies of our time took a pass and hid in the corner and congress is going to push back. i just met with israeli ambassador six democrats -- excuse me, three democrats and three republicans. we have had had it with this u.n. double standard, israel is going to fight for their lives. they need the ability to destroy these terror tunnels. 11 soldiers were killed today. the tunnels have one purpose to kill israeli civilians. the rockets are designed to kill as many as they could. the only reason they haven't killed a lot of civilians in israel is because of some iron dome. there is no moral equivalency. hamas is a terrorist organization. they have one goal to destroy israel and we're not going to let that happen repeat myself at the risk of being boring 17 countries voted present. china voted with -- you can understand china and rush sharks right? whereby is frapsz, great britain. >> great britain, unbelievable. and france. >> germany of all people. >> senator, thank you. i look forward to seeing
that video. >> thank you. >> could donald trump be a new owner of your favorite nfl team? that's in just minutes. donald trump goes back on the record.

that erin shinseki resign. the v.a. deal struck. it doesn't look if they will stick to that four day schedule immigration is going to get handle. >> senator reid went let anything be voted on. he votes present. >> sad stumble to the finish line before this august recess. you know that there are big issues. in the case of immigration, we know the contours. we know we need more money and immigration judges. probably a change in who you can deport. not a serious effort to get it done. house plan, a senate plan, presidential plan, no plans to actually talk about them and get it done. i think it's a low level outrage in all of washington that you are going to go into this recess with so much unfinished business. a highway bill that's still out there, too. they have got to work on v.a. reform. only work in deadlines. >> you know why they are lucky? because we are talking about these issues. f. we he go ba what they promised when they ran last time tax reform. go back to the things they promised and don't have done. we need another two hours.
>> we have to deal with things that pop up as well. on this border thing. i mean, there is a legitimate difference that they have not been able to bridge yet. >> but, also a humanitarian crisis. they created. >> absolutely. but, there is this question. of whether this law should be changed this 2008 law should be changed. democrats seem to be slightly open to it for a while and then they put their feet in cement. no go. republicans are the same way on the other side. >> republicans very hesitant to authorize the type of money the obama administration has asked forker even the amount of money senate democrats at the present time put up there seems to be this gap that we haven't seen built over it which not very optimistic. >> they wanted the job and said they could do and it they should do it. thank you, everybody. let's go off-the-record for a minute. the dnc press secretary did something really rotten. has to do with the war on poverty.
president johnson's challenge to the nation and for 50 years we have been losing that war on port. poverty is very painful. it's humiliating and people do not want to be be pour. i get enraged when someone has an idea to fight poverty, lift people out of poverty and then someone, like the dnc press secretary stomps all over it with a stupid press release. now republicans have been guilty of this, too. on different issues. but the dnc press secretary takes the cake on this one. congressman paul ryan came up with an antipoverty plan. a new idea, a starting point. he wants the nation to win the war on poverty. he gives a damn. >> if you want to serve people in congress and you think you can't solve a problem that's a problem in our communities, you shouldn't be in congress. >> what is exciting is that a democrat, former president clinton's labor secretary robert rice who also gives a dam about poverty didn't endorse rine's plan but said this on abc this week. >> i was frankly very impressed. this is something that is very new and different from the republican party. and i think it deserves a
careful look by democrats. >> this is great. it's a start. both sides of the aisle looking at new ideas. so, what does the dnc press secretary do? embrace the chance to possibly win the war on port? no. praise the fact that both sides could work together? nope. he does something awful. he shows how lame is he. releasing a statement criticizing representative ryan for his antipoverty plan, saying, among other things that paul ryan is not fooling anyone. my thought for the dnc press secretary? buddy, it's you who is not fooling anyone. you obviously don't give a damn about poverty. all you care about is winning. that's my off-the-record comment tonight. coming up, donald trump is thinking of buying an nfl team. could it be yours? find out which team after the break. @"

nancy was over in liberria treating ebola patients when she became sick with the ebola virus. the statement from the organization she works with along with samarit an's purse is expected to have her in atlanta in the next few days. she will arrive on the medical jet and in the same hospital and isolation unit in similar circumstances, julie. >> we know that there is no cure currently for ebola, but there is treatment for the patients and what are they treating them with? >> there are experimental treatments and so far no approved treatments. the main strt strt is supporting the patients and trying to keep them strong enough and long enough that their body's natural defense can fight off the virus. you know, julie, in africa the
disease has high mortality rate. and the thought here are with the best medicine, here in the u.s., that that would dramatically increase the patient's odds, julie. >> thank you very much. ebola is a serious disease. the cvc said there is no threat to the public here in the u.s. mark sega l, will joins later in the hour. israeli prime minister netanyahu warning hamas they will pay a terrible price if they continue to fire rockets in israel. netanyahu hinted that the defense forces could be scaling back their campaign in gaza, once troops have demolished the network of tunnels into israel. he said in the new's conference. they have found dozens of tunnels and in gaza, air strikes
and israeli troops and tanks moved closer to the border. conner powell is live in gaza city tonight. what is the latest. >> reporter: julie, two things to inform you. first the israeli military is redeploying the troops back from the main parts of gaza and into israel. it is because they are almost done destroying all of the tunnels that hamas built going from gaza and to israel. and getting word that the israeli military said the lieutenant golden who was kidnapped and captured by hamas, and now the israeli military is saying no, that missing soldier is dead. they found forensic evidence that suggested he was killed in action and not captured by hamas. this is one of the reasons that yesterday's ceasefire utterly collapsed before it began.
the israeli military said golden was killed in action and not captured. the israeli military is shifting the resources from gaza back to israel in large part the situation changing. and the israeli prime minister netanyahu saying today that they will continue to strike at hamas and try to prevent any rocket launchers and infrastructure functioning and israel continued to hit hamas and firing rockets in israel. the fighting will continue and it will shift over the next few days, julie. >> what does this mean for hamas? >> reporter: right now, it sounds like hamas is arguing that they will fight israel as long as there is israeli troops in gas a. they will continue to fight the troops and fire rockets and launch attacks on israel as long as the israeli
blockade of gaza remains. that's their main point as long as the blockade remains. whether or not there is room for negotiating remains the question. israel said they are done negotiating with hamas and they don't believe there is a ceasefire reachable with hamas. other groups qatar and egypt are pushing for talks and right now hamas is vowing to fight israel as long as israeli troops are in gaza and they will continue to fight and that means the fighting doesn't end any time soon. >> conner powell, thank you very much. the recent fighting between israel and hamas has been going on 26 days. it makes it the longest and deadliest conflict. and at least 66 israelis and in
december 2008. there was an operation in response to hamas rocket fire. and that is when 1400 palestinians died and 13 israelis. and in 2012 there were smaller conflict in june of that year. hamas fired 150 rockets in israel and retalitory air strikes killed two palestinians. back here in the u.s. law makers finally passed a immigration bill, but it has little chance of ever becoming law. tens of thousands of children from central america making the dangerous journey north without their parents and crossing illegaly on the border. there is a major humanitarian crisis on the border. and the republican- led bill focuses on turning them around
and sending them home in a quicker process. it would shut down the program by the president granting work permits. neither is likely to go too far. the senate is gone for the summer and president obama called the legislation irresponsible and vows to act on his own. how might this play out in the midterm? >> the republicans said the 695 million border bill is an effort to solve the border program. >> we are empowering the national guard 70 million. and half of that money going to the actual states. we are funding this so that they can detain the people and reunite them with their families and put them back in their own country. >> reporter: the president's
spokesman dismissed the idea and said it was sure to be rejected bite senate and the administration will manage the border as responsibly as possible and address our broken immigration system. republicans can say they passed legislation but democrats didn't bring it to a vote. and democrats say they and the president are holding out for a more comprehensive bill. >> molly, what was the disagreement between nancy pelosi and a republican congressman? >> reporter: they had a face-to-face disagreement on the house floor. pennsylvania congressman tom morino said the democrat ignored the immigration problem and made a political issue. pelosi made a bee line to the gop congressman. >> i did the research on. it you might want to try it madam leader.
>> later he tweeted that pelosi called him an insignificant person. maybe i am not significant to question the former speaker, but why would she get so bothered by my comments? pelosi's spokesman said democrats are standing up for bipartisan immigration reform and she accepted morenno's apology. and morenno's spokesman said he did not apologize. >> jennifer houston disappeared over one week ago. and now researchers have a new theory about where she might be. >> and can you imagine getting a pink slip while serving your country in a battle zone? we'll explain coming up. and senators would like to hand a pink slip to the cia. what now? >> and president obama admits we
tortured some folks, that's a quote. and should the cia tactics been different. i will read a few of your comments later in the broadcast. ugh. heartburn. did someone say burn? try alka seltzer reliefchews. they work just as fast and are proven to taste better than tums smoothies assorted fruit. mmm. amazing. yeah, i get that a lot. alka seltzer heartburn reliefchews. enjoy the relief.

>> when we engaged in the enhanced interrogation techniques, techniques that i believe and any fair- minded person believes were torteur, we crossed a line and that needs to be that needs to be understood and accepted and we have to as a country take responsibility for that and hopefully we'll not do it again in the the future. >> what do you think? a lot of you are tweeting me on this. and i am overwhelmed bite tweets. first of all terrorist not considered folks and should the cia interrogation tactics been different? mike said 3,000 people were murdered and people lost husbands, wives and moms and dads and children and friends. the answer no. sam writes. hell no, they gave up their rights as folks when they

>> reporter: in the cold rain and snow they came by the hundreds today to honor a fallen officer, new york police department kifdetective wenjin liu. out in force his brothers and sisters in fwlu. jetblue flew more than 1100 police for free from as far away as california. >> it doesn't matter if you're in the south, midwest, west coast here. >> show respect for the officers that we lost here. >> reporter: members of liu's family traveled from china, also flying free. his wife of only a few months spoke to reporters last month, two days after liu and his partner, detective raphael ramos were brutally gunned down as they sat in their patrol car. >> we will stand together and get through this together. >> reporter: also attending, the new yorkers, liu and ramos helped protect and serve. >> i just felt that he had given his life for the city and so he deserves to be recognized.
>> reporter: new york city mayor bill beblass yo and police commissioner bill braton arrived together and were greeted by salutes from some officers. last week hundreds of officers watching a big screen outside turned their backs. even before the protest over eric garner's death and complaints by many officers that de blasio didn't lend enough support to police there had been tensions between the police and the mayor. de blasio was elected on a pledge to end the practice known as stop and frisk. some say relations have been further strained by contentious contract negotiations. on friday, bratonton wrote in a message to all officers that they are "bound by the tradition, honor and decency that go with the profession." not threatening discipline he said "a hero's funeral is about grieving not grievance" hoping to head off a repeat of last week's silent protest at tomorrow's final farewell to
detective liu. much of the country is dealing with extreme weather. again tonight parts of texas and the oklahoma panhandle got as much as seven inches of snow in a storm that was again last night. to the north near pittsburgh a salt truck in charge of melting ice instead became a victim of it smashing into a house. while in mississippi at least one tornado touched down and more were possible as damaging weather passed through parts of that state and louisiana. for more on all this let's turn to weather channel meteorologist chris warren. hi chris. >> hello to you, lester. severe weather the big threat and an ongoing threat right now. i want to show you where that threat is going to be through the evening and as we look at this know that already there have been several tornado warnings already some damage with trees down power outages. power lines down at least four mobile homes have been heavily damaged in parts of mississippi. to the northeast, there is a snow threat especially new england, looking around a foot of snow in some areas, and that very dangerous freezing rain will be an issue.
expecting to see ice into the morning hours, black ice a big concern, could be power outages with this as well. then there are some big changes on the way for the northeast, sunday it will be wet. however, 65 in new york. almost 70 in washington d.c. that is well above average this time of year and then some major changes. we're looking at monday temperatures down just above freezing in many areas. inland areas will be into the 20s and then we have some dangerously cold arctic air coming all the way down from the north pole and lester parts of the midwest and the northeast will be dealing with some of the coldest air so far this winter season. >> all right, chris warren thank you. despite continuing bad weather, it looks like some large parts of that airasia jetliner may have been located today as more victims of the disaster were identified one week after the plane was lost. we get the latest from indonesia and nbc's kelley cobiella. >> reporter: it's their best clue yet, in 09 feet of water,
four large objects. searchers tried to get a better look with underwater cameras but couldn't get them to work in rough seas. instead, a mapping ship measured them from the surface. the biggest piece is 59 feet long and 18 feet wide and appears to be part of the jet's body. another is 31 feet long and 15 feet wide and scattered around chunks of debris 39 feet long. the head of the indonesian search and rescue operation says he's confident they've found the wreckage from airasia 8501. the key now, tracking down the black boxes. >> it's also important for investigators to understand the condition of each of the victims as they're recovered, because that could shed light on how much impact forces were sustained by the aircraft in each of the victims. >> reporter: today they expanded the search area and identified more bodies as more families learned their loved ones were among those found.
agun darmono already buried his sister-in-law. his 9-year-old niece and mother are still missing. he told me waiting is hard to bear but it's in god's hand. the flight attendant was found with her name tag still on. airasia founder tony fernandez helped the family bury her as his airline faced more scrutiny. the indonesian government has grounded airasia flights from surabaya to singapore indefinitely while they determine if the airline filed all the proper paperwork for that route. toot another u.s. navy ship arrived to the area to help the indonesians with the search. the "uss ft. worth" joins the several hundred dollars u.s. troops on the "uss sampson" who have been helping with the recovery efforts since monday. lester? >> kelly kobecobiella thanks. we're just three days into 2015 but perhaps just 13 months or so away from a first presidential primary. in national politics that's a nanosecond and so for the field
of potential candidates the 2016 battle for the white house begins now. kristen welker takes a look at the state of the race. >> reporter: former florida governor jeb bush was the proud father friday watching his son, george p. bush get sworn in as texas land commissioner. but there are fresh signs bush is considering his own political future and a race for the white house. earlier this week he resigned from all of his corporate and non-profit board positions, after announcing on facebook last month that he's actively exploring a bid. polls show bush is the prohibitive front-runner in a crowded field, with names that include texas senator ted cruz kentucky senator rand paul and new jersey governor chris christie and just this week senator marco rubio from bush's home state of florida told npr he's still keeping his own options open >> as far as you know speculating whether two people from the same state can run, it's not unprecedented. >> reporter: all eyes are on hillary clinton. this week she teased supporters
with this e-mail titled "announcement" that turned out to be a fund-raising letter for her family's foundation. >> she said she was going to take time off over the holidays and she actually did it. now it's january, people are waiting to are her to do something. among those waiting, vice president joe biden, former virginia senator jim webb martin o'maly and vrm senator bernie sanders. political analysts say clinton and bush have such strong name recognition and fund-raising potential at this point, other candidates might be intimidated. on the other hand their connections past and present could become liabilities. >> everyone knows who hillary clinton is. everyone thinks they know who jeb bush is and all of that carries potential baggage. if they have business entangled, all kinds of things that because they are the front-runner make them the biggest target. >> while name recognition and money may give a starting advantage to clinton and bush, other factors wild cards for now are bound to shape the race --
economic frukt wagss, volatile events on the world stage, natural disasters and verbal gaffes all of the things that make every presidential campaign unique. lester? >> kristen welker tonight thank you. >> the new congress convenes on tuesday with the republicans firmly in control and some highly divisive issues on the agenda. for more let's turn to chuck todd the moderator of "meet the press." chuck, where will the republicans start? >> they'll start with a symbolic president to test the president and his veto pen. we know it will be a big year on poshlly health care immigration, but the keystone pipeline one of the first things this republican congress with the help of some democrats if they still will lead in the senate in order to get things to the president's desk that will be the first test of the president's veto threat and it could be the first veto he ends up issuing of 2015. after that the question is where are they going to try to get along? how much does the republican leadership say we have to figure out where we can govern and where to work.
issues like trade that's a possibility. tax reform some people are optimistic. i'm not as optimistic as much. and then to me the big wild card lester is going to be the improving economy. does the improving economy as we've seen a ton of story this is year does it give president obama new political capital to use in 2015 to get more of his agenda through? we do know he feels very emboldened and plans to stay that way post-vacation. >> chuck, we'll see you tomorrow and chuck will have more on the big issues facing our divided government tomorrow on "meet the press." former senator edward w. brooke tide. he served from 1967 to in the 79. he was the first african-american elected since reconstruction easily defeating his democratic opponent at a time when 2% of the massachusetts population was black. he was known especially for promoting fair housing policies. edward w. brooke was 95 years

>> or i watch baseball. >> reporter: was that one right there? >> yes. >> reporter: charlotte's web is a strain of marijuana low in thc. the psychoactive ingredient but high in cbd, a mystery compound believed to have healing properties. >> cbd is something that has captured the national imagination, political imagination, the fear of the medical community. >> reporter: dr. edward ma is a denver neurologist, studying charlotte's web. he warns it doesn't reduce seizures for everyone. >> 20% to 30% are having a pretty dramatic reduction and it tails off from there. >> reporter: well aware of the odds the flemings moved here anyway. how happy would you be if you could live your life every day and not have any seizures anymore? >> i would love that. it'd feel like i'm in heaven, probably. yes.

your home. that's it for "special report," fair, balanced and unafraid. greta goes "on the record" right now. we have a special report online with a guest israeli ambassador to the u.s. joins us in seconds. >> this is a fox news alert, just moments ago the house voting giving speaker john boehner the green light to sue president obama. republicans accusing president obama of abusing his executive power with a quliewn lateral decision to delay the obamacare employer mandate. fox news chief congressional correspondent mike emanuel live on capitol hill. mike, what's the latest? >> greta, good evening. the vote was 225 to 201 along party lines so it had all republican support to authorize this lawsuit a lot of times before big votes you have passionate speeches on the house floor from lawmakers trying to drive something across the finish library. in this case you had house speaker john boehner
speaking very calmly talking about the oath that members of congress take to, you know, when they are sworn into office. and asking them to stand as one institution to basically fight executive overreach, to stand up and defend the constitution and so it was enough to get republican support. he did not win over the democrats, but they were not needed in this case. bottom line, republicans all day say that they were defending the constitution; that they feel like the president has gone too far in the spread of executive power. and so they say it may be a republican president in a couple of years and democrats may have wished they joined the lawsuit because perhaps the shoe will be on the foot in a couple of years. at this point the lawsuit goes forward. republicans made it happen and he we will see where it goes in the courts, greta. >> mike, any members of congress sticking their heads in the sand and not voting at all or any republicans or democrats crossing over? >> we had five republicans
vote against and there is some suggestion that perhaps they wanted to go further. they don't want to just do a lawsuit but perhaps take a deeper step. we will see. we have to reach out to those lawmakers to see if that was the case. perhaps others were not equipsed that a lawsuit was necessary. several others sat out the vote. it's not clear why. perhaps they were sick. perhaps they just didn't want to engage. but bottom line he did get 225 republican votes. he needed 218. so there were definitely enough votes to make it happen. >> mike, thank you. >> sure. >> and republicans insisting the lawsuit is an attempt to protect the division of powers. house rules committee chairman pete sessions joins us. good evening, mr. chairman. >> mr. chairman. >> how are you, greta? >> i'm very well. now that they have the vote, 225 to 201, the resolution is passed, when is the lawsuit going to be filed, do you know? >> well, the lawsuit now has authorizing speaker of the
house to take under his own advisement and it work with lawyers on not only the ideas and where it will be filed but the timing of that i believe the speaker will move rather judiciously. we already understand the of the united states is not faithfully executing the laws of united states. and, in particular, related to the resolution that is the affordable care act. i believe the speaker can move expeditiously on this matter. >> i have got some thing about hefty legal bills. i still have an idea of how much this stuff should cost and rather simple matter there are no witnesses or deposition. there is no jury, there is no nothing. do you have a feeling on how much is being spent because i assume that the taxpayers will be paying this. >> in fact, they will, greta. what happens is there will be no new money that will be authorized and was not asked for. it will come directly out of the money that the speaker currently has. and, it will -- we presume, be less than $2 million.
there is. >> 2 million? i could find something to do it for you for if $30,000 or less. it's not that complicated. 2 million is a lot. 50,000 would be a lot. >> i said it would be no more than that but here's the point. it is only for 60 days. this is only until the end of september. the speaker will have wide latitude to be able to move this measure now that he has the vote, and i believe the money, it will be inconsequential compared to the action that is needed. we need to find out does the president of the united states have the ability to waive the healthcare laws as he has done. that's important for americans and understand despite the fact good stewards of the american taxpayer dollars i hope when he digs into this gets a good deal on this because that, obviously is an
important issue as well. all right, now, so, when you said the president -- the speaker is going to act judiciously, does that mean he is going to do it during the recess or will this probably be filed some time in september? any sort of guess on that? >> well, my guess is that he would be prepared to do it as early as tomorrow. >> all right. and so is there actually a complaint filed, do you know, i mean, prepared? >> he was never even authorized to do that until this evening. so now that that has been done, i would assume the speak would move forward with this. >> all right. if he can file it by tomorrow, there is even more of a reason to say. it doesn't take a lot of hours to put this together. we will be watching, mr. chairman, an important issue. we will see what the court say when it comes to the issue of standing. thank you, sir. >> you bet, greta. >> kucinich, "u.s.a. today" kirsten powers and national review's jim garety? >> the tool is right. not sure it's the right tool in the toolbox.
feels like a gamble. people ask whether the house has the standing for lawsuit. if they win look like geniuses they managed to point out that the stopped obamacare and president isn't obeying the constitution. >> doesn't like to take up cases where it's an argument between two branches of government. they have to show they were injured by obama's actions. pretty hard thing to do. >> kirsten? >> i think there are serious people jonathan turley who they think that obama is exceeding his powers then you have to ask who can challenge him, right? and perhaps it is only the house. the response to that democrats are saying no, this is a political stunt. well, it can be both it can be a political stunt which i think it is. the timing is not coincidental. it happens to be election year. it also could be that they substantively feel that president obama has overstepped his bounds and think that he needs to be held accountable. >> i think it's a serious
issue i don't know whether the courts grant standing or not. courts have changed their minds and relooked at things and different views of things. decisions can change all the time. when he said $2 million, i almost fell over. when i say this is a $20,000 case. i'm not exaggerating. this isn't complicated. >> couldn't we even get a crappy lawyer to file? >> i'm scandalized that this would cost this much. this takes some good research in a library, on the issue of standing and one pleading filed for 150 bucks. >> lawyers that work on the cheap, greta. speaking of money, one thing we know is both parties are raising lot of money off of this. i know we all had fundraising requests piling into our inbox with various creative subjects on both sides. >> president obama is impeachment thing is making a fortune. >> much stronger argument right now, feels almost like they are preparing the battle space are to the fight over potential executive order de facto, amnesty. keep hearing rumblings
coming out of the white house coming at the end of summer. that be with the legal' super bowl. wait a second, now he is completely deciding is he ignore large chunks of the law and rewrite it to his whims. the public opinion on the republican side than this one. trying to do this to set up the narrative. look, obama ignores the constitution. we have been making this argument for a long time. now he has gone too far. maybe it will work out. >> i think it's an important issue. >> the executive power issue? >> where the line is. >> it's a very important issue and also a very important issue when george bush was president. >> agreed. >> a lot of violations of executive power and republicans were not particularly concerned about that. >> but that's the way politics always are. >> always different in foreign policy but always different when it's the things that they care about. i think to be consistent you have to care about both, right? >> agreed. >> and so we're consistent, greta. >> i agree. i mean, republicans and democrats should want to know what the extent of a president's power is. >> exactly. the question is what kind of power, you know, the president thinks he has
power on immigration. they would argue that they have the power under the 1996 immigration law that gives the president very broad powers. but, maybe the court has to come in and weigh in on this. >> who knows if they will. anyway, panel, if you will stay with us. and developing now. dangerous threat and immigrant detention facility at our border. highly contagious disease. k fox reporter bill milligan live at the border with the very latest, bill? >> hey, greta, yeah, we are talking about a confirmed case of the chicken post office box that's putting a halt to all deportations and all arrivals at a brand new detention facility in new mexico about a four hour drive away from el paso. this pace literally opened up a month ago. a few weeks back we got a chance to look at video, the facility. it holds up to about 700 immigrants. it's a mix of adults and children. now, ice confirmed to me earlier this morning that at least one person in that shelter has a case of the chicken post office box. now, they -- chicken pox.
i did talk to the public health director here for the city of el paso. is he not buying it he thinks there is a very high chance of it spreading throughout the rest of the shelter. he gave me a few reasons why. number one, he says you can actually spread chicken pox two days before you even start showing any type of symptoms. what that means is when these ice agents give medical screenings to these immigrants as they come into the shelters they may not have any clue whatsoever that they could be infected with the chicken pox, number two, he said in a closed environment like a shelter, chicken pox is one of the most contagious viruses out there. he said that airborne, it can be through skin skin contact. he pointed out something interesting. most of us get chickenpox when we are kids. it's fairly mild. if you get it as an adult it can be very -- especially for a second time. that's when it can turn into shingles and real nasty rash
on your torso, very painful and severe. that's one of the reasons why ice is halting all deportations, all arrivals at this facility. greta? >> bill, in terms of any other health issues besides chicken pox with these children? >> at that facility in particular, all we are hearing is chicken pox. we know at different facilities across the southwest there have been reports of scabies, lice. that facility hearing one case of chicken pox. >> all right, good. let's just keep it at one and hope there is no more and everything is under control. thank you, bill. time is running out for the house and senate to vote on competing immigration bills. but right now republican lawmakers placing the plame blame for the crisis scarily on president obama. >> this is a humanitarian crisis. it's the direct consequence of president obama's law
lawlessness. >> the president is preparing to assume for himself the absolute power to set immigration law in america. >> if in fact he gives work permits to a million or 6 million people you will see an additional surge of people coming. >> they're coming because they believe they're getting amnesty. >> he is the president of the united states. he could solve this problem today. >> we're not going to solve this crisis until we stop president obama's amnesty. >> getting to america by any method you can and you will never have to leave. >> and senator ted cruz joins us. nice to he sigh, senator. >> good to see you, greta. >> obviously you blame president obama. i will get to that in a second. first, does republican party bear any of the responsibility to blame for the situation we have right now at the border. >> well, sure. look, both parties bear some of the responsibility because we failed to secure the border. we should have secured the border. we should have done our basic job a long time ago. that being said, what's happening at the border right now is a direct and proximate cause of it is president obama's amnesty. this was all triggered in
2012 when president obama unilaterally granted amnesty. >> when you say amnesty, that's sort of the code word that the republicans use. you are talking about the executive order which does, what? >> right. well, if you look at the data, if you look at the evidence, and you and i are both lawyers we are a big believer of looking at the facts and seeing where they lay. the facts here in 2011, there were roughly 6,000 unatestimony companied children apprehended trying to cross into this country. then in june of 2012, the president signed an order that granted amnesty to some 800,000 people who entered illegally as kid. even though you broke our laws and not entitled to be here. we are going to allow you to stay and give you a permit to work. it was deliberately it was directly targeted to people who entered as kids. new, the predictable consequences, the predicted consequence of that is that it created an enormous incentive for more kids to come in. if you are granting amnesty to come as kids, other kids
will come. and it's gone now from 6 now, children in 2011, to it's expected to be 90,000 this year and 145,000 next year. they are coming because they believe they will get amnesty, president obama's amnesty and if we want to solve the problem, the only way to do it is to eliminate the promise of that. >> all right. so we have the situation we have. how do you sort of reverse engineer? let's say the president is watching this and senator ted cruise got a great idea. now we still have all those kids at the border. we still have that problem. what do we do? >> well, your first question about how do you eliminate the promise to amnesty the most simple and director way i have introduced legislation in the senate. it's very short just two pages. it says the president does not have the authority to grant amnesty to any new immigrants who come into this country. you know, one of the things that's really disturbing just a few months ago if the
president can't do this, that lois ghost a long long way to eliminating the promise of amnesty which is why these kids are coming. >> let me go to the related topic authority of the president. he clerked in the united states supreme court for the chief justice renquist and just passing tonight the house has passed the resolution giving the green light to sue the president. the big question is whether they have the quote, standing. whether they have the ability, the power to go to court and sue. put on your legal hat. >> well, it's a difficult question. look, what has prompted the house to do this and this is unprecedented. the house as an institution has never sued the president before. what's prompted it is we have never had a president like president obama. >> that's not the question. i realize the problem. i realize the republicans'
objection. is this a way to figure out the parameters of a presidential power. does the court have the authority to make that decision? >> i think there is a serious and credible argument that the house has standing. a court might agree, it might not. it's a credible argument. the reason they were farced to file and one of the things that i have done as the ranking member on the constitution subcommittee, senate judiciary committee is release a series of five reports detailing the lawlessness of this president. when the president refuses to enforce the law, the challenge is there have been very few people who have standing to challenge it. the house as answer substitution is trying to act to fix that it's making a plea to the courts to uphold the law and uphold the president's constitutional authority and responsibility to take care that the laws be faithfully executed. >> too bad. trying to figure out the breath of any president's power. we ought to be able to figure out it's got to be
defined some place somehow. if it's not in the court this kay any other con vehicle to figure out the limits of this president or another one. >> sure. for any president the way you figure out the iments of the text of the law, what this president asserts is unprecedented. 28 times with obamacare. he has just unilateral live said i'm changing the law. >> there is no executive discretion. i mean, there is some executive discretion. >> there is executive discretion but there is not discretion to change the text of the law. so, for example, the text of obamacare says the employer mandate kicks in january 1st, 2014. there is no ambiguity. january 1st, 2014 is spelled out. he said no it doesn't. i'm granting exemption for members of congress. just lack week a huge decision on obamacare that concluded for 36 states across this country, that president obama's administration illegally extended obamacare to those
36 states, illegally extended the individual mandate and the employer mandate. >> the problem is a couple hours later a fourth circuit said just the opposite. so, in other words, never dull. we will find out what the courts say. >> indeed. >> thank you, sir. >> thank you, greta. >> developing now hamas rockets shattering even short-term cease fires in israel striking a school. ambassador john bolton is here next. also some lois lerner emails found in what is a sizzler. learner calling republicans. i don't think i should say that word on tv. maybe i will. think about it. it's coming up. that could be a question of blood flow. cialis tadalafil for daily use helps you be ready anytime the moment's right. you can be more confident in your ability to be ready. and the same cialis is the only daily ed tablet approved to treat ed and symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently or urgently. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and medicines,

across all of the gaza strip today while we were out doing the live shot getting ready for a live hit with shepard smith earlier in the day. we saw some of that fighting. we were taking pretty heavy small arms, artillery coming in. forcing to get down on the ground. part of the reason why we are inside right now doing this live shot because it's just simply too dangerous to be outside. now, this is the type of fighting that we are seeing really all the way up and down the whole gaza strip right now. we are still seeing hamas rockets more than 140 of them have been fired from gaza into israel, just today alone. part of the more than 2700 we have seen fired in the
last four weeks. but, israeli artillery and israeli air strikes are really the big story today in two different locations. israeli artillery hitting civilian targets. at least 30 people were killed between the two of of those. 130 killed today alone. israel has been condemned by certain parts of the world. but the u.s. sticking with it to an extent. the white house condemning the incident but not blaming israel directly saying that they want to full investigation. but the white house is very angry about what is happening here. particularly the israeli tactic. we are also seeing growing humanitarian crisis here. there is a shortage of water there is a shortage of bread. we have seen long lines. the u.n. now saying that there is more than 200,000 people here in gaza now seeking assistance from the united nations. and, greta, the u.n. saying that they are simply overwhelmed with sort of breath of the entire humanitarian crisis here right now. >> conor, thank you. >> and the israeli media
constantly slamming secretary of state john kerry. one israeli newspaper columnist calling secretary kerry an amateur. another saying he should be fired. so with all that backlash, can secretary kerry possibly get anything done in the mid east now. former u.n. ambassador john bolton joins us. ambassador, nice to see you. it's not under ordinary circumstances an easy job. now secretary kerry goes in with israel being furious at him. >> i'm not here to defend john kerry's job or his record as secretary of state. people should not operate under the allusion that somehow he is acting independently. i think is he really faithful carrying out exactly what the president wants. and that is despite all the rhetoric about israel's right to self-defense, if we impose a cease-fire on israel. if the pressure of the united states and western europe forces israel to agree to a cease-fire, we will be stopping israel from taking steps against hamas' missile capability that
materially aids iran in its nuclear weapons program. this battle that israel is engaged in now obviously for their own self-defense. but it's also in america's interest. >> i don't see prime minister netanyahu in any way sort of bowing to the wishes of president obama. i mean, he seems quite determined in all his statements. i don't think -- i can't imagine that he is feeling -- i can't imagine pressure from the united states having any impact on him. he will make up his own mind. >> is he very determined he has nearly 90% of the population of israel, according to opinion polls supporting this operation. i don't think the the owe obama white house quite understands that i also don't think you should under estimate the ability of the president of the united states when is he determined to do it to make israel bend the need. >> how do you do that? >> all kind of steps he can take cutting off intelligence access. holding up military resupply. allowing the europeans to it too there delegittization efforts against israel. we have seen john kerry do it already. talking about why a third is
not unimaginable. why the boycott vest temperature and sanctions is. i think that pressure veal. i think netanyahu feels it. >> where would we go from here? i mean, it keeps getting worse. humanitarian crisis. water and bread. 140 today were killed. 3,000 -- i don't know how many rockets in the last couple weeks. tell me about what conversation you and i are going to be having five nights from now. >> well, my guess is netanyahu will try and continue. i think it's important to cut through the cynicism of hamasousing these civilians to shield its military capabilities. and that's what the strategy is here. hamas cannot possibly win in a military confrontation with israel. but they can create the impression that israelis are systematically targeting civilians. i think the u.n. and u.n. works administration. the deals with palestinian refugees is complicit in that. i think we have got to it
expose that cynicism for people to understand these tragic civilian casualties among the palestinians of gaza are caused by hamas. >> that's where the public opinion is that shifts against israel and goes all the way over to the white house. the white house then exerts the pressure you are talking about. >> i think in the united states, support for israel is growing. i think the opposite is true in europe. i think that's where the obama administration can allow the europeans to do its dirty work for them, frankly. >> ambassador, nice to he sue sir. >> thank you. >> and republican senator kelly ayotte is disturbed by what president obama just said. what did he say? senator ayotte is here to tell you next. someone say burn? try alka seltzer reliefchews. they work just as fast and are proven to taste better than tums smoothies assorted fruit. mmm. amazing. yeah, i get that a lot. alka seltzer heartburn reliefchews. enjoy the relief.

one rescue at a time. new threat to investigators trying to reach the flight 17 crash site in ukraine. ukrainian officials say pro-russian rebels have planted land mines near the wreckage. meanwhile some u.s. republican lawmakers taking president obama to task not providing with weapons to fight the pro-russian. president obama saying ukraine does not need our weapons help. but senator kelly ayotte strongly disagrees. she joins us president obama says that ukraine doesn't need our weapons. do you agree? >> absolutely not, greta. it's absurd. first of all, they have been asking for lethal assistance from us since i was there in march and they were asking for it then. it's been months and months. and here is the absurdity. since the russian-backed separatists actually took down flight 17 and murdered
over 290 innocent people, the russians and putin have put more armaments in. they have put more antiaircrafts into eastern ukraine. they put more tanks, more heavy arms. so actually since the plane went down and we won't provide the ukrainian military, who is fighting hearted for their own sovereignty, some basic lethal assistance, i mean, it's really mind boggling. >> what do you think president obama's thinking is on this? >> i really don't understand his thinking because what's happening is that the ukrainian military, they are putting it on the line. they are actually making some progress down there. >> maybe it that's it. maybe he thinks they can do it without help? >> i actually think it's not true that they can't do it -- that's why the russians are putting more and more heavy arms in for the russian backed separatists because the ukrainian people are fighting to defend their own territory. in some ways you have to wonder what is this administration doing to ♪ support the ukrainian military? they are not asking for our
troops. they are asking give us some help to they gave up their nuclear weapons under the budapest memorandum and we signed that agreement for basically to respect their sovereignty and for security assurances and now here they are in a fight where russia is backing these thugs and providing them all these arms and we're not even willing to give them some basic lethal assistance. >> what do you mean by basic lethal assistance? >> i mean, think about it, the aircraft that have gone down, antiaircraft, what's happening, that antiaircraft sophisticated system, so technology that can help them combat that. intelligence, it's my understanding we're not providing realtime intelligence to them as to where this antiaircraft is so that they can prevent other planes, their own planes from going down. and also anti-tanks. russian tanks have come over the border but, basic arms,
they have asked for some basic things. you know, in terms of just basic small arms to help buttress their military to defend themselves. >> what do we do this b. things like germany. germany is not going to help because germany loves the natural gas and the oil from russia. you have got the u.k. that loves their economic dealings with russia. i mean, nobody seems to want to help. >> he will with, first of all, i'm glad that they actually stepped up to put some more sanctions in place that europe did. but obviously they need to go further. but it's a matter of american leadership, too. he they are going to follow our lead and the president on this issue of not he providing some more assistance to the ukrainian military. i just don't understand it it's almost like he wants them to fight with one hand behind their back while the russians are just pouring in arms to these thugs and we are giving the ukrainian military uniforms and goggles. think about the comparison there. >> putin, too light on putin? >> you know, this president
has been too light on putin from the beginning, starting with the reset policy and obviously the new economic sanctions put in place, i'm glad that those were done, but now to ignore requests that the ukrainian government have had for a long time for some basic assistance seems, to me i think it's because they don't want to incite putin. he doesn't care what we think. he is he giving these thugs more arms. >> senator ayotte nice to he so you. new hampshire busy wanting to run for about the. >> we love having them in new hampshire. nice to see you, greta. >> living the unthinkable and seeing the unthinkable. boko haram terrorists slaughtering family. same terrorists. now the brave young girl is here in the united states telling her story to you. she goes "on the record" tonight. former irs official not only has legal troubles.

a young girl's heart is broken as mother and father are murdered in nigerian home. debra peter only 12 surviving that 2011 attack. this is her first interview since telling congress of the boko haram. terror group kidnapped and holds hundreds of nigerian school girls. >> they shot my dad in his chest three times. >> folk co-haram is a dangerous, evil radical extremist islamic group, more than 200 girls and young women kidnapped by islamic extremists. last several years. >> shoot my brother that's when my dad died.
i was in shock. >> and joining us debra peter and her lawyer immanuel oglebay. nice to see both of you. thank you both for joining us. debra, it's particular itly nice to meet you. >> nice to meet you too. >> you have moved to the united states last september, right? >> yeah. >> having had a horrendous experience. what happened to your family? >> on december 22nd, 2011, my dad was killed by boko haram the night before -- so, that night me and my brother, we were at home. and then we started hearing the gun shooting. so my brother called my dad and tell him not to come back home because my dad is at work. so he told my brother that he is going to come back home because he has been home like a lot of times when there is problems happening but nothing happened. so my dad just go ahead and
come back home. so three people went, my dad came and then he told them that he -- he told under the circumstances that he wants to take a shower. so like after running water for him and stuff, he went to the bathroom. so like 30 minutes later, three people knock on our door and then asked my brother where's your dad? then my brother said my dad is in the bathroom taking a shower. so they wented for a few minutes. he didn't come out. they go ahead and went to the bathroom and pulled my dad out of the bathroom and then tell him to deny his faith. my dad said he is not going to deny his faith because anyone who denies god in presence of people is he is going to deny them in father in heaven. my dad didn't deny his faith. they said they would give him a second chance. he refuse the offer. then they shot my dad three times in his chest.
so my dad was like i think he is about to die, then my brother now say what did my dad do to you? why did you kill him? so the three men, the boko haram, they told my brother to be quiet. then when my brother was trying to be quiet but he just couldn't hold it. so the first leader told the two -- the other two that they should kill my brother. but the guy that is like right behind the leader, he told him they should not kill him because is he a little kid and then the third guy told them that no, they should kill him because if he grows up he is going to become pastor like my dad. that's how they shoot my brother and killed him, too. so the next the soldiers came my brother and dad to the hospital. >> you your brother was how old. >> 14. >> and how old were you then. >> 12.
>> boko haram for not renouncing christianity. is this getting worse in nigeria? one of the worst stories i have ever heard. >> absolutely getting worse. they don't kill women. they kill all the males in the house. we seen what happened three months ago. now they come back and they abduct the girls and take them away as slave brides. if debra had been back in nigeria when this happened in that village where she is from, she could have been taken and she just found out that one of her cousins is amongst the 200 missing girls right now. this is an evil that continues to evolve. >> boko haram is so evil. you can can see more of our interview with debra and immanuel. go to gretawire.com. it's all there. lois lerner's emails keep gettings worse. she has a potty mouth. now the former irs official calling the republicans names. the new lerner emails next. many of my patients still clean their dentures with toothpaste.

why she doesn't say conservatives are talking about conservative radio in this conversation, they are looking for intent. we will see if the justice department decides that that is enough. >> you know, i think, kirsten, looking at these and piecing them together it looks like she wrote them while on vacation. she wrote them on vacation to england and it looks like on a taxpayer blackberry. every time i go roaming overseas i know how expensive it gets. this is a taxpayer blackberry. >> yeah, exactly. unless they have some great deal that we don't know about. they are probably getting charged the same amount of money for that she refers and i have never defended lois lerner ever. she refers to the -- he they are referring to the wacko wing of the republican party. and they are talking about talk show, you know, radio callers. >> would that be tea party people that she targeted? >> i know a lot of republicans, i would not name them, though they are well known people and i have heard them refer to these people in the exact same manner.
many of them are elected members of congress, in fact. i'm not sure that this necessarily shows anything against republicans per se or necessarily even the tea party. i think it's more about there are some rabid people out theren the left and the right. >> the problem she may have though, besides the fact that she is doing this on vacation, is that it does show that she is not -- if she wants to say that she is or the of independent, fair, doesn't have any problems with people. it's a tough sell. >> lois lerner cannot complain about being held in contempt when she clearly full of contempt. as irs commissioner she makes a prime time nbc host. slow lerner. >> member of congress fed up with the tea party. you know this is how they there are plenty. >> her job is to adjudicate. >> emails as well, which not exactly something that, you know -- >> -- yeah. not who has used the a word. should somebody who has authority over who gets investigated by the irs look at one said of the country
sand say they are all that way. >> we don't know that she only looks at one side of the country that way. >> there are republicans who think this. >> >> but they are not running the irs right now. >> neither is she now. >> have this opinion and not necessarily be going after people. >> how about this one? this one, kirsten, here you go, kirsten. >> defamed very badly, i don't think this is the smoking gun. >> here, defend this one. so we don't need to worry about alien terrorists. it's our own crazies that will take us down. >> being sar cass -- sarcastic. i have heard plenty of republicans talk about the far right this way. i know you have too. i know you are playing dumb right now. >> i'm every bit as dumb as i seem at this moment. i don't use taxpayer email to do those things. i'm not paid by the taxpayers. i don't have authority over people to do that. >> i think that this in itself, exactly right. she also took a swipe at left wing people as well.
making fun of europeans complaining about the united states. >> she can't audit your. >> if i am representing her, i would think if okay now i'm trying to make her look like fair. she doesn't have an ax to grind. executing her job. someone comes in and like dumping a truck load of manure in my lap because now i have got these emails where our taxpayer dollars looming charges u.k. on vacation and calling one particular side of the political spectrum that she has the authority to investigate all these horrible things. that's a tough sell. >> if you in fact think that's a tea party. >> if that's the wacko wing of the republican party then you are right. then this would be a smoking gun. tough decision to be in jury to the congress when she meant wacko she didn't mean tea party. the people that she is targeting. it's just a tell tough sell. >> we are not in disagreement this is bad for her and looks really bad.
i think that -- i don't think-i think there are plenty of people who say this kind of stuff who would not then go in and investigate people. >> i think it's fair to say when lois lerner is back in the news it's not good for lois lerner at this point. >> i just like the term potty mouth though. >> so much other evidence, frankly that you don't necessarily need this to nail lois lerner. there is enough evidence that she was, you know, not behaving in a fair manner. >> i agree that this is not -- these emails are not evidence of a crime. they are evidence of bias, which is very unhelpful to her. anyway. i'm taking the last word. pam. thank you. coming up, what has women all over the world, including the two women sitting here with me outraged and probably laughing? they are laughing at the same time. i'm going to tell you off-the-record, of course next.
when folks think about what they get from alaska,
they think salmon and energy. but the energy bp produces up here creates something else as well: jobs all over america. engineering and innovation jobs. advanced safety systems & technology. shipping and manufacturing. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. when we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. that's not a coincidence. it's one more part of our commitment to america. deadly ebola virus spreading in east after from can a. isolated for exposure to the virus and the peace corps now evacuating other
volunteers from liberia. guinea. aid workers for ebola. sources telling fox news adam housley that high level talks are underway to bring the two americans back to the united states. few facilities in the u.s. equipped to treat ebola patients. let's all go off-the-record for answer in. what are these women laughing about? [ laughter ] >> >> that's a great question. [ laughter ] >> >> what is so funny? i don't know for sure. but chances are they could just be laughing at the deputy prime minister of turkey. they may have heard what he thinks. he says a woman should not laugh outloudly in public and quote preserve her decency at all times. men who laugh in public are decent and women who laugh in public are, well, not decent. that's what the deputy prime minister of turkey thinks. that is funny.
