President trump praising him on twitter scene after many years of leaks in washington, its great to see the attorney general taking action for national security, the tougher the better. Today, Rod Rosenstein put parameters, rod rosen signed the parameters im not saying we are not going after journalists. We are going after the leakers themselves. If you break the law, no one is safe. We look at the facts and circumstances. What was the potential harm caused on the circumstances and that is more important than who it is.

Thank you. You will see the full exclusive interview with rod rosen dean again at 2 00 p. M. Eastern after the show. There is a lot there. Great interview with Chris Wallace on the fox news channel. Elizabeth Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell says hes going to can better a bipartisan approach to fixing upon the care. The window for repealing and replacing what is closing an annual political rally says hell take a look at the bill being worked on by republican amar alexander and democrat patty murray. The bill would in exchange give states more flexibility in choosing one insurance they offer. The senate will hold hearings on the idea of november. Lawmakers have a lot of other issues on their hands upon returning. Federal spending and tax reform are on the docket. Here to talk about the first 200 days we talked about with speaker paul ryan. I want to ask you, theres a lot of talk about the gop. Ive heard excuse me, praising soontobe Speaker Pelosi. I want to ask you, i feel like that is putting the cart before the horse. Is a long way off. Republicans are worried about trump and some of the swing districts. They are not looking at the trump districts. They are looking at the districts where Hillary Clinton won or trump won by seven points or five points or three points. In though, if the election were held tomorrow with the house and play, absolutely. A long time until november 2018. They have a lot of hurdles to get through. I think they would admit so far it a heavy lift in the first year of the presidency before the august recess. They have nothing. Coming back to the crushing deadlines behind them. I could list you five, six things that they are going to fight over. So when they look at sort of what they need to accomplish to put themselves unsteady footing for a Midterm Election next year but the time running out, Speaker Pelosi doesnt sound that crazy of an idea. Elizabeth just in the last six months of the administration vastly understaffed, this would cause more disturbance than stability. Wondering about the executive Branch Impact when you look at the fact that functions on one side of pennsylvania avenue is having some type of Ripple Effect on the other side. Is certainly not President Trumps fault that after seven years cant get in a room and come up with a plan to repeal and replace obamacare. He got in the way. He changed his mind. He said it needs to grow in place. I find that they are sort of leaving him out of the process. At the executive branch, theres a lot of work hes done. We are in a standoff with north korea right now. We are looking not a woefully understaffed pentagon and it concerns people in both parties about how prepared we are with the expertise to face a crisis for so many of the main ones. Elizabeth i know its obviously apples to oranges when you look at the executive branch and whats going on in congress and congress is a different story in a sense obviously its fractured. When you look at the leaders about chambers, it is almost as if they have to take the fall for this. There is no legislative achievement after six months. Or are you saying theres no achievement after six months, give it six more months. There is a chance by the end of the fiscal year. 12 legislative days before september 30th for the party to pick up the pieces and get something done. The great sequester by 2011. They need to reauthorize the Flood Insurance program. They need to have the government funding bill. They need to increase the debt ceiling and they want to pass a budget. A lot to do. That is health care if they put it on the back burner. Theres a real obviously unified goal they share with President Trump to try do pass the First Quarter and inject Economic Growth well into the system by next spring. Before the Summer Campaign of 2018. Thats a lot of things on the docket. They have to work as a team, but in some places the administration will have to let the Congress Work without them. They dont seem to be a very cohesive team. The divided leadership of the congress and President Trump knows a lot more about it. So far the team is not really putting it on. Elizabeth i know we are running out of time, but when you hear Mitch Mcconnell say its not dead and see the bipartisan effort in the house, are we wasting our time talking about health care . Malcolm actually the only way to get into a health care fixed its a national joke as they tried to pass it on their own. It is not possible. The Problem Solver draft in the house that came up with a bipartisan solution is going to be similar to what senator alexander is taken out. It will stabilize the market. It wont be a huge redesign. A few things both parties can agree on. Elizabeth thank you so much. I appreciate it. Leland. Leland at the search for three missing marines call off to what caused their offspring to crash. They run a Training Mission off the coast when something went horribly wrong. Ellison barber joining us now. A number of rescued. These three still missing now. Reporter right, the marine corps has notified the families of these three marines in the recovery effort right now could take several months to complete. When officials cut off the search around 3 00 a. M. In australia the day before august 5th, 4 00 p. M. Local time. The osprey crashed off the coast of australia in the marines word regularly scheduled operation. The aircraft took off from a navy warship in told fox news that crashed as it attempted to land back on the warship. Officials say 26 Service Members were on board. The other 23 are safe. The cause of the crash is under investigation. All of this weeks after a morning corp. Cargo plane crashed into killing all 16 on board. They are actually up this year when you look at what they were last year. So far this year we have seen 12. By this time last year there were eight in only about a third of the marine corps helicopters were flight ready. Blaster officials told fox news budget cuts hampered ability to repair and said that forced pilots to spend less time in the air training. Here is how one Lieutenant Colonel described it in april 2016. It is coming on the backs of our young marines. My marines over there are the ones who are working 20, 21 hours a day to get them ready to go on deployment. The likelihood of a ground mishap or a mistake late at night and the pressure to perform. Aircraft involved in the latest crash is part helicopter and airplane. It takes off and lands like a helicopter, but in the era flies like a plane. The white house has President Trump is getting the situation in australia from his chief of staff. Leland. Leland ellison barber on this. More to come. Thank you. Hundreds unable to repeal and replace obamacare. The focus is turning to tax reform. We will talk about it. Republican congressman mark sanford of South Carolina will join us next. We will chat with him. Efforts underway to hold Drug Companies accountable for the Opioid Crisis gripping the country. A tornado slicing through the center of tulsa, oklahoma, home to more than 400,000 people. Andrew klotz is tracking all this and the fox extreme weather center. Reporter hey there. Everyone of these in last 24 hours, yes including tornadoes, heading off to the south into the east. I will tell you where its going to be coming up after the break. Where would you go . Expedia. A girl with golden locks broke into a house owned by three bears. She ate some porridge, broke the baby bears chair, and stole some jewelry, a flatscreen tv, and a laptop. Luckily the Geico Insurance agency had helped the bears with homeowners insurance. They were able to replace all their items. Including a new chair from crate and barrel. Call geico and see how easy it is to switch and save on homeowners insurance. Hey youve gotta see this. Cno. N. Alright, see you down there. Mmm, fine. Okay, what do we got . Okay, watch this. Do the thing we talked about. What do we say . Its going to be great. Watch. Remember what we were just saying . Go irish see that . Yes im gonna just go back to doing what i was doing. Find your awesome with the xfinity x1 voice remote. Leland cleanup crews still assessing the damage. Down south in waterlogged new orleans, people trying to get around in the high standing water. They sought eight inches of rain. Thousands of people lost power in the city buses wouldnt run. Water receding slowly, but theres a chance its a more thunderstorms today. Elizabeth thats right. Meteorologist adam klotz with his wild august weather. Atom. Unfortunately, we continue to track in the center of the country from the planes right stretching further south to the gulf of mexico. Where weve seen the most impactful whether has been a system that ran across portions of kansas backup into Oklahoma City through tulsa, which you mentioned the tornado now settling down to rock them sock them are working memphis. It has been a massive one. Yes its producing strong wind, but maybe the bigger story has been the heavy rains. Radar estimated from the last 48 hours. Reading Central Missouri you are looking at areas that easily got 16 inches of rain with the storms trained. That will be happening again. Rain continues to be a heavy problem downstream from this. Not right in this area. They are going to get a chance to dry off a little bit. You do notice that backing up a little bit. Not quite as strong as diplomatic activity, but here we are looking right along the mississippi river, stretching back through dallas with a chance of thunderstorms and i do think the big concern in this area will continue to be the heavy rain. Future radar for you and you can pay attention. This will be lifting across the southeast, running and not really saddling off towards the south as they run away along the midatlantic coast in the next couple days. The heavy rain may be winding down a little bit. Why is it taking that path . We will continue to see instability. All this warm air to the south and west in a cold front settle across the country. Look how much cooler it is across northern portions of the country. Folks in new york city in new york city enjoying a little bit cooler weather. Right along this line will continue to see instability and that will be bringing showers here throughout the rest of the weekend into next week. Elizabeth adam klotz at the latest. Thank you very much. Leland. Leland when Congress Returns to the august break, they have a long todo list including health care reform. A lemming deadline on the long promised tax reform and increasing military spending. South carolina congressman mark sanford now from charleston, South Carolina. You are going to be busy commissary. That would be an understatement. A. B. Stoddard was on the vestiges of republicans have effectively become a national joke over their inability to get health care done after he been promised for so long. How badly do republicans need a win before the end of a covert or so to get the momentum going . We were just talking a moment ago telling you about what i heard back at home since weve been home. A number of different republicans have come up at the numb the district. We gave you the keys to the car and you got the house, the white house, no excuses. We expect a win. To your point, weve got to get something done. Health care is difficult. From a strategic and tactical standpoint, it was a mistake to go over this first because its very complex, and hurt old issue and people talk about their health or the health of those they love coming gets very emotional very fast. It wouldve been simpler to start with a tax reform. Where we are right now is health care is on the side. You will see something you fairly quickly and tax reform before the end of the year. Leland we heard that thinks of health care are going to also move. Forgive people for being skeptical when republicans put out deadlines and promises. You just did a brief one here, but has there been any postmortem that says look, this is what we did wrong and this is what we need to rally around. Or is everybody still clinging to their own factions . I wouldnt say it so much as factions here theres legitimate difference of opinions. Ronald reagan has said the closest thing to eternal life is a Government Program and theres a lot of life to that. It is very difficult to take something away or have the perception of taking something away. In this case, we were talking about reform so that both sides of the individual marketplace or believe. T
