This was going. They are very upset because mike pompeo, first in his class in west point and top at his class at harvard, a brilliant and great guy and someone i get a long with very well. They thought they had him stopped. The democrats are obstructionists. Theyre not approving them and taking them out to the maximum 30 hours. Thats a lot of times. 30 hours to interview people that will be approved. 30 hours and people will vote. It is a disgrace. Sandra it is a big day for
President Trump
s cabinet on capitol hill. Jeff sessions and epa chief scott pruitt going before congress in what are expected to be a series of contentious hearings. We have
Fox Team Coverage
for you this morning. Peter doocy following those hearings on capitol hill. Charlie hurt standing by for reaction. We begin with chief
White House Correspondent
john roberts reporting live from the north lawn this morning. When was this decision made . Good morning to you. It was during an
Oval Office Meeting
with the president yesterday when dr. Ronny jackson decided he didnt want to go through the process and knew it would be something that could likely tear you apart. I ran into dr. Jackson in the halls of the white house a few minutes ago. He was in very good spirits this morning and back at work at the white house physician. He did spend a week in the washington wringer. That will leave a few scars. Dr. Jackson this morning issuing a statement he is withdrawing his name from consideration to become v. A. Secretary saying going into this process i expected tough questions how to best care for our veterans but i did not expect to have to dignify baseless and anonymous attacks on my character and integrity. The allegations against me are false and fabricated. If they had any merit i wouldnt have been selected, promoted and trusted to serve in the role of physician to three president s. Democrats led by an accusation that he wrecked a government vehicle after he got drunk. The white house insists he never wrecked a government car and jackson acknowledged he recommends all staff on air force one take a sleep aid when traveling overseas. The president and many other people on the white house staff say democrats were simply trying to destroy a good man. Listen to what the president said on fox friends a short time ago. President trump they are trying to destroy a man. By the way, i did say welcome to washington and welcome to the swamp, welcome to the world of politics. But for john tester to start bringing up stuff like candy man and the kind of things he was saying and then say well, you know, these are just statements that made. There is no proof of this. He has a perfect record. He has this beautiful record unblemished. The president predicting that senator john tester from a state where the president won by 20 points may get a lot of blowback over this. Listen here. President trump i think john tester has to have a big price to pay in montana. The admiral is the kind of person that they respect and admire and they dont like seeing what has happened. The president spoke this morning for a first time in a couple of weeks about his personal
Attorney Michael Cohen
and the case the government is building against him. Listen here. President trump this doesnt have to do with me. Michael is a businessman. He has a business. He also practices law. I would say probably the big thing is his business. And they looking at something having to do with his business. I have nothing to do with his business. He has other things. He has businesses. From what i understand theyre looking at his businesses. I hope he is in great shape. The president also saying
Michael Cohen
was dealing with this crazy
Stormy Daniels
business. The president insisting that cohen did nothing wrong in making the payment of 130,000. The president also ripping james comey insisting that he has committed crimes. The president suggesting that at some point he may jump into the fray regarding comey paraphrasing. I will wait until this thing is over. I decided i wont be involved but may change my mind at some point. A name that bubbled up around capitol hill as potential v. A. Secretary is
West Virginia
senator joe manchin. White house sources say its not true but well keep running it down. Sandra thank you. As mentioned two members of trumps cabinet set to face a grilling on capitol hill an hour from now. Attorney general
Jeff Sessions
and epa chief scott pruitt are both on the hot seat in separate committees as the senate takes up a vote for mike pompeos secretary of state position. What do lawmakers want to here from pruitt . This lawmakers who control pruitts budget on the
House Appropriations
Committee Want
to know if there is anything to all these stories that keep bubbling up that pruitt has not been using the money in the budget wisely. I think everybody is looking towards the house hearings and well see what happens there. But i do think that in the not too distant future that he will be over on the senate side. There is legitimate concerns and questions that we need to dig deeper and find out the answers. Jeff sessions the attorney general will also be at the
House Appropriations
Committee Later
on today separately on the
Homeland Security
front. There will be a hearing about the pentagons budget. We watched the chairman of the joint chiefs walk in for that and the dhs secretary will have to explain to congress what the dhs
Top Priorities
are for in fiscal year 2019 and what they need congressional funds for. When do we expect to see confirmation or vote on mike pompeo to be secretary of state . Stimulates on this afternoon now that the majority leader is confident pompeo will be confirmed because there are moderate democrats and one independent who say theyll vote to confirm pompeo. The independent senator from maine, angus king says director pompeo would not be my choice for this position but agreement with him on all issues cannot be the standard. If it were every cabinet vote would be a partisan exercise. The simple fact is we need a secretary of state especially as iran and north korea as both are coming to critical decision points. Another huge event on the hill today at the
Senate Judiciary
committee where theyll mark up a bill to protect the special counsel,
Robert Mueller
and his investigation. Peter duesy on capitol hill. Thank you. Sandra lets turn to charlie hurt, opinion editor for the washington times. Fair to say we heard from the president this morning and he was fired up. And really pointing fingers at what he referred to as obstructionist democrats. For now
Ronny Jackson
out as his v. A. Pick. I think that the president laid down a marker this morning with john tester. I think this is not the last were going to hear about this. I suspect that we will see the president traveling to places like montana and around the country and bang the drum. He will talk about how a good man admiral
Ronny Jackson
got run out of town, got run out of
Public Service
or additional
Public Service
, i should say, based on all these unproven, unsubstantiated allegations that were floated by senator tester. I have to say the whole thing is very strange. Im used to seeing a lot of pretty harsh accusations leveled at political opponents around here but ive never seen anything like that where a
Committee Just
openly hands out a dossier of all of these unfounded allegations against a guy who had a really excellent reputation. Sandra
White House Position
three president , earned high praise from all of them including president obama. He then commented on mike pompeo and said referring to democrats they tried to stop him, too. We know mike pompeo is up for a full senate vote today. He is expected the pass. Do you expect any lastminute wrangling there . No, i dont. Ive all along suspected he would eventually get through. It is indefensible to block a guy like this especially somebody with so much support when he was confirmed to the c. I. A. Chief but because the position he is nominated to you have all this playing out in north korea as you have partisan squabbling going on in congress over the nomination of this vitally important position as it relates to the negotiations in north korea. Talking about denuclearization of the korean peninsula. Something politicians havent been able to talk about for decades and to have that juxtaposed to the quabling in congress is not a good look for congress and why the only people more loathed in america than congress is are journalists. Sandra good stuff. A lot changing at this hour. Thank you for coming on and giving your reaction to all that. Thank you. Thank you. Sandra meanwhile, rick, i meant to also ask him about this. Well have a couple senators coming on the show later. The president s

President Trump
s newest attorney,
Rudy Giuliani

President Trump
s personal
Attorney Michael Cohen
to plead the fifth in a lawsuit. He filed paperwork saying he would invoke his right against selfincrimination due to an ongoing criminal investigation. Another hearing for the criminal investigation is happening in the next couple hours where a judge will hear more information on documents seized by the f. B. I. From cohens home and office this month. Rick
Rudy Giuliani
the newest member of trumps legal team talking to mueller about a possible interview with the president. Giuliani saying the president has handed over more than a million documents while adding, quote, if anything else is needed well consider it. If there is an open mind as to the merits. Here to talk about it is judge andrew napolitano, fox news senior judicial analyst. So much to digest today. The president addressed this this morning on fox friends saying you know, i would like to talk but i have a little second thoughts. He should have a lot of second thoughts. Rick first of all. Rudy giuliani what kind of difference does he make here . He enjoys a great deal of respect in the legal and judicial communities particularly in new york and washington at one point he was bob muellers boss. And he has a lot of respect. His days as a rough, tough prosecutor trying cases himself in the courtroom are a while ago but i think he retains that respect. Rick he made sort of a promise that he was going to make this move a little faster. Can he do that . I wish he hadnt made that promise. It will come back to tease him or bite him. When the president asked if rudy would represent him a week ago rudy said ill have it over in three or four weeks. Thats an unrealistic goal unless by have this over the president s interview with bob mueller. But he led us to believe when he said it by have this over the whole investigation. Rick it has to help he knows the system and knows mueller well. Of course that will help. Thats not the problem. The problem is no matter how well
Rudy Giuliani
knows bob mueller, this is an interview that is fraught with so much danger for the president. Rick that might happen between the president and bob mueller. It would be the president , bob mueller, his prosecutors and f. B. I. Agents. When mrs. Clinton was interviewed there were five different people questioning her. This is a very aggressive, rough and tumble environment in which one white lie can result in an indictment. Rick you know they arent just going to ask about the possible collusion with russia. Even though that may be the premise or purpose of this. You are exactly right. They are not his friends. They are not there to help the president. They have, for example, 20 years of financial records of all of the trump organizations borrowing. They can ask by flow of money and events that seem lawful on the surface but there might be something in there he doesnt want them to know about. He may say its none of your business but they are there either to trap him or to get him to admit to something without he is realizing he is admitting it and theyre expert at that. Rick separate issue. Michael cohen who has done legal work for the president , the president was asked this morning about
Michael Cohen
and he said i have a lot of attorneys. Michael cohen happens to be one of him. We talk about him pleading the fifth in the california place because of a criminal case in new york. I would advise him to do the same thing if he were my client. He doesnt know what the government will accuse him of in the criminal case. To protect himself from giving the government any ammunition he has to remain silent on everything even on cases that have nothing to do with the investigation in manhattan. Rick could the cohen situation come up with the president . I believe it will. When the f. B. I. Seized those documents and judge wood before whom the government is appearing with
Michael Cohen
s lawyers now as we speak, said what is the basis for this seizure . The government revealed theyve been listening to michaels phone calls for three months. Who was he talking to every day . The president. Rick judge, appreciate your time this morning. Sandra
President Trump
unleashing in a new interview about the obstructionist democrats stonewalling his cabinet picks minutes after
Ronny Jackson
withdraws his nomination. Well get brandnew reaction on that. Rick congressional leaders mark an emotional day on the baseball field that was the site of last years shooting. Steve scalise joins us next to talk about his road to recovery and a lot more. I immediately flashed back to when i got my bearings that morning looking to my right and seeing
Steve Scalise
down and from my perspective he wasnt moving. And that is a horrific scene that ill never get over. His parents dinner date. So i used crest. Crest 3d white removes. 95 of surface stains in just 3 days. For a whiter smile. That will win them over. Crest. Healthy, beautiful smiles for life. We see two travelers so at a comfort innal with a glow around them, so people watching will be like, wow, maybe ill glow too if i book direct at choicehotels. Com. Who glows . Just say, badda book. Badda boom. Book now at choicehotels. Com i accept i dont i even accept i i used thave a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. But no matter where i ride, i go for my best. So if theres
Something Better
than warfarin, ill go for that too. Eliquis. Eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin, plus had less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis had both. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Im still going for my best. And for eliquis. Ask your doctor about eliquis. You know whats not awesome . Gigspeed internet. When only certain people can get it. Lets fix that. Lets give this guy gig really . And these kids, and these guys, him, ah. Oh hello. That lady, these houses yes, yes and yes. And dont forget about them. Uh huh, sure. Still yes xfinity delivers gig speed to more homes than anyone. Now you can get it, too. Welcome to the party. This baseball field i think it epitomizes what makes
President Trump<\/a>s cabinet on capitol hill. Jeff sessions and epa chief scott pruitt going before congress in what are expected to be a series of contentious hearings. We have

Sandra a moment of reflection as congressmen return to a baseball field in virginia the site of a shooting that stunned the nation. Steve scalise on the road to recovery joins me now from his first interview since completing his last round of medical procedures. Congressman, wonderful to see you this morning. These final surgeries are over. Yes, good morning. The final surgery that was planned as part of my recovery and felt really good to get it done. It was successful. My doctors felt good about it and i feel good about it and i can focus back on recovering my physical therapy to learn how to run and walk again. Sandra hard to believe what you have been through. A long road to recovery. I know that im sure you wish you were out on the baseball field for practice yesterday. I really did. I was flying back from new orleans yesterday and, you know, knew my colleagues would be on the ball field. Missed being with them. I sent a statement to encourage them. Im glad they went back. We arent going to let one act of madness stop a tradition and we need to keep going. Ill be back out there soon enough and im glad they went and they arent going to be deterred, either. Sandra the congressional baseball game will be june 14th. He hope youre well enough then to participate. Meanwhile congressman, you return to a busy washington there is so much going on this morning and now we learn
Ronny Jackson<\/a>, the president s pick for v. A. Is out. He blames his departure on how washington works and his letter upon his departure he wrote unfortunately because of how washington works the false allegations have become a distraction for the president and the issues we must be addressing. How we give the best care to our nations heroes. What is going on here, congressman . I think you saw
President Trump<\/a> yesterday just expressing how toxic this political environment has gotten where somebody is qualified as him would be tarred like this and they try to go after him and create allegations that he will get the opportunity to go and counter but it is interesting that democrats never raised these concerns or allegations when he was
Barack Obamas<\/a> physician. So it shows you there is a double standard out there. The fact that
President Trump<\/a> is not going to be deterred. He has done so much for our veterans already and make sure we get a good, qualified v. A. Secretary. More light needs to be shined on the people that will oppose and try to undermine whoever is going to be the person that takes care of our veterans. Im glad
President Trump<\/a> has made taking care of our president s a top priority. We need a qualified secretary. When he appoints somebody it will be someone to run the agency the right way for our military veterans. Democrats need to stand up for our veterans. Sandra do you know who he might be considering . I dont know. I would imagine he would have a good list of people that want to do this job. It is somebody who will be the primary caretaker for our veterans when they come home and ultimately need to be taken care of from their injuries that were related to defending our freedom. Weve increased funding for the v. A. As weve cut other areas but made sure our veterans have the money and resources they need. They need somebody at the top. It is time for the senate especially the democrats to try to make this a blood sport to come behind him. Sandra the vote for mike pompeo goes to the
Senate Floor Today<\/a>. It ought to be a unanimous vote. I served with him on the house energy and
Commerce Committee<\/a>. He did a great job as c. I. A. Director and a great job as secretary of state. He has great relationships with a lot of the leaders around the world who are our allies. He understands our enemies. He understands them probably better than most secretary of state coming up. Hopefully the senate has a strong vote. I commend
President Trump<\/a> for appointing mike pompeo to be secretary of state. Sandra you would have no idea you just came out of surgery. Were happy for you and watching your road to recovery. It has been long. Happy youre back and hope to see you at the baseball game in june. Great to be back in the game. A lot of work to do. I enjoy working with this president to get things done to the
American People<\/a> and go tigers. Sandra good stuff. Thank you so much. Thanks. Rick nine surgeries. Sandra unbelievable. Rick the
Trump Administration<\/a> making it clear theyll fight to secure our borders. Push we will not be discure ajds from our need to secure the border and take every step possible to secure our nation. Rick those comments from secretary nielsen coming as the caravan of
Illegal Immigrants<\/a> has reached the u. S. mexico border working on entering the country. Senator ron johnson joins us next plus, in case you missed it,
President Trump<\/a> and kanye west set the internet on fire. Can you say
Dragon Energy<\/a> . Why the rap mega star isnt backing down from his support for the president despite a massive backlash online. On stage. Re i wanted to be clear. I wanted it to last.

To pinpoint our perfect location. Once locked in on our target, we knew we had to move fast. Fortunately, we were already preapproved for a no money down loan with
Navy Federal Credit<\/a> union, and were able to put an offer on this place immediately after it went on the market. I see you dad how are my tomatoes doing, babe . Ah, pretty good. Navy federal credit union open to the armed forces, the dod, veterans, and their families. Sandra the
Migrant Caravan<\/a> of
Central American<\/a> immigrants has reached the u. S. Border with every intention of crossing into the u. S. This weekend. Their approach sparking a tweet storm by our president. Homeland security
Kristen Nielsen<\/a> saying they stand at the ready to make arrests, ron johnson, thank you for being here this morning. What update can you give us on this caravan . Good morning, let me first say its nothing unusual. I know theyve organized into a small caravan but since 2013 over 200,000 unaccompanied children from
Central America<\/a> have come into this country, 225,000 family units, were looking at 750,000 children and family units that have exploited our very loose immigration laws and by and large in this country. Sandra what do you know about the numbers reaching our border at this point . I just gave them to you. Those are the ones that can really exploit our laws that have lengthy adjudication process, turns them over to hhs. Weve gotten good at apprehending, processing and disbursing. Once you get into the country you say. Less than 5 since the daca law, sent a very strong signal if you get into america you can stay and they have stayed and it creates greater incentive for more unaccompanied children and more family units coming to this country because of the legal loopholes. Sandra how is
Homeland Security<\/a> watching the developments. Theyre watching this caravan. Why isnt mexico enforcing its immigration laws . They have much tougher immigration laws than we do as we found out with that marine that accidentally crossed into mexico and was detained. Why isnt mexico helping us . Theyre part of the problem. Theyre complicit in this wave of uncode children from
Central America<\/a>. Sandra whats the answer to that . What is our open dialogue with mexico . Theyre clearly just ignoring the president s demands here. Well, first of all from my standpoint we need to fix our own laws. Through diplomatic channels we ought to ask mexico to enforce theirs. Weve had some success but not enough because its still happening. Sandra what is this warning coming from nielsen that
Homeland Security<\/a> is monitoring the border and stand ready to make arrests. I appreciate that and one of the best parts of her press release she said the human traffickers, coyotes know more about immigration laws than congress. Well enforce the law. That means we apprehend them, we process them and we disburse them including under the
Obama Administration<\/a>, we actually disbursed admitted ms13 members. We just had the raging bull apprehensions that showed how per saysive that problem is. We have a horribly broken
Legal Immigration<\/a> system that creates incentives for more people to come into the country and exploit our system. Sandra the president has gone on a twitter storm urging mexico and relations to improve and urging mexico to stop this from happening. What sort of response are we getting from mexico . Not an adequate response because they havent arrested these people under their very strict il
Legal Immigration<\/a> laws. We first need to get our own house in order. We need to expose what again too many members of congress dont realize all the loopholes and
Legal Precedents<\/a> laws that created this flow. Our primary objective should be to stop or reduce the flow and thats working with mexico and fixing our
Legal Immigration<\/a> system, our broken system. Sandra there is a vote on the
Senate Floor Today<\/a> mike pompeo for secretary of state. What are your expectations on that today . Im glad a couple democrats have joined republicans and hopefully will vote yes. Mike pompeo is a person of integrity, intelligence. He should be overwhelmingly confirmed but democrats are playing deeply divided politics with this and its unfortunate. Sandra i know you have a busy morning. Thank you for your time this morning, sir. Thank you. Have a great day. Rick meanwhile u. S. Marshals are hunting down some of the countrys most dangerous fugitives and fox news went along for the ride during a roundup of ms13 gang members. Were live in washington and an exclusive look at operation triple beam. The u. S. Marshals are the
Oldest Federal Law Enforcement Agency<\/a> in the nation and today they are taking on the most violent gangs. The 59 bounter hunters, the bloods, crips and ms13. Gang leaders, drug leaders, fugitives and human traffickers. One stop shop. On the agenda capture three capital murder suspects. The marshals job is to grab the body. We have been the u. S. Governments manhunters since 1789 and were the best in the world. Theyre running a joint effort with local police to take down gangs that proliferate along the border. Houston chief of police told fox news that
Cartel Activity<\/a> on the border leads to increased crime inside his city. People and drugs come north and going south we have guns and cash. Over time the strategy has produced some major results. Since 2010 more than 6,000 arrests. The seizure of 1500 illegal firearms. More than 1. 5 million in cash and over 6 million of narcotics. They explain the mission is spread out across the country in order to route out gang members wherever they are. Carry out court orders, which is reducing
Violent Crime<\/a> in the communities. Protecting the federal judges, whether ms13 or other gangs. Theyre terrorizing our communities and something we have done and will continue to do. Well continue to go into the communities through the task forces and state and local partners to reduce that
Violent Crime<\/a> and bring relief to our communities and to insure the safe, fair,
Effective Administration<\/a> of justice. They strive to stay outside the fray of washington politics and after spending time with them its clear their only priority is getting the bad guys. Rick thank you. You cant overstate how dangerous the work is these marshals do. Sandra unbelievable story. Meanwhile the
White House Press<\/a> secretary butting heads with a cnn reporter in a heated news briefing. When people take your words out of context. I would appreciate if you not do that to the president. Sandra well play more of that and the relationship with the white house and media at this point in time. Rick
President Trump<\/a> unleashing on james comey this morning why he says he did a great thing for the
American People<\/a> by firing comey. President trump they have a witch hunt against the president of the
United States<\/a> going on. Ive taken the position, and i dont have to take this position and maybe ill change, that i will not be involved with the

White House Press<\/a> secretary
Sarah Sanders<\/a> getting into a
Heated Exchange<\/a> with cnn over the
Ronny Jackson<\/a> nomination and the role of the press. Watch this. Rough trying to say this administration is a champion of a free press . I certainly as i stated a moment ago, we support a free press but we also support a fair press. There is a certain responsibility by the press to report accurate information. I think a number of people im not finished. I think a number of people in this room do that every single day. They do their best to provide fair and accurate information. Certainly support that and its one of the reasons im standing here taking your questions. And a lot of times taking your questions in a tone that is completely unnecessary, unneeded and frankly doesnt help further the conversation or help the
American People<\/a> get any more information in a better way, which is your job and my job and thats what im trying to do. Rick
Jessica Tarlov<\/a> is the senior director of research and a
Fox News Contributor<\/a> and steve hilton the host of the next revolution with steve hilton. Thank you to you both for being here. Sarah sanders talked about tone. Steve . Have you noticed a difference in tone . I think honestly i have never seen such a bunch of ridiculous snowflakes as the
Washington Press<\/a> corps. Let me spell it out simply. Criticizing the press is not the same as trying to close down the press. These vain, pompous, selfregarding elitist journalists like jim acosta seem to think theyre the only part of our political system that should be above criticism. Nobody is trying to make the press less free. We just want it to be less biased. What is it about that they dont understand . Rick it strikes me there is thin skin in the
White House Press<\/a> room and not used to being called out by the spokesperson or the president. I think the press having trouble grappling with this and the administration and
Sarah Huckabee<\/a> sanders is having trouble with whats going on here. What steve said about whether were having a less free press. We slipped to 45th in the world as a free press. I think we should be ashamed about that. The questions about dr. Ronny jackson turned out to be legitimate since he just withdrew from the nomination. The 24th nominee from
President Trump<\/a> that has had to withdraw before going to committee hearings. So there are important concerns there. I think the jim accost to and his relationship with the administration is tenuous at best and i understand the accusation of it being whiney and all of that is legitimate. But at the end of the day
Sarah Huckabee<\/a> sanders doesnt want to take questions about issues that are difficult for her and difficult to answer in light of decisions that the president has made. Rick again the tone of the questions. Steve, the president this morning on fox friends talked about a witch hunt against him and oftentimes it seems like during the
Daily Press Briefings<\/a> thats where the questions are coming from is all sort of angry directed at the administration in ways that perhaps the administration obviously doesnt like. Youre completely right. The press are part of that witch hunt. Theyre part of the establishment that cant believe that donald trump won the election. Still cant get over it. Dont think he is a legitimate president. They cant stand anything about him. They cant stand the way he looks, behave, speaks and they will hound him until his last day in office because they just hate him so much. And it is not just the press, it is all the elite establishment throughout politics not just in the
Democratic Party<\/a> by the way and republican establishment too. They cant stand donald trump and cant believe he won. Thats what this is all about. Rick
Cnns Jim Acosta<\/a> has been criticized for calling out
Trump Supporters<\/a> saying mean things about them and he also likeened
Sarah Sanders<\/a> to a city council spokesperson. City
Council Speaks<\/a> people will be upset with people. We know the relationship between
Sarah Sanders<\/a> and the administration and jim acosta is not a good one. He was saying he was taken out of context with the trump comments and she was right to push back and see it doesnt feel so good when that happens. Looking ahead well have a press briefing today for instance and if
Sarah Sanders<\/a> says the questions about
President Trump<\/a> admitting that
Michael Cohen<\/a> represented him with the
Stormy Daniels<\/a> case are not legitimate thats not going to fly well. Thats something the press should be talking about and cant say your tone is bad. Rick one thing we do know there will be more fireworks in the press
Briefing Room<\/a> on a daily basis. Jessica and steve, we appreciate your time. Sandra interesting stuff in the
White House Press<\/a>
Briefing Room<\/a>. Rick mustsee tv. Sandra thats almost every day. Were just hours away from a major summit on the korean peninsula. Both north korea and south korea preparing for a big sitdown as
President Trump<\/a> reveals information about mike pompeos sitdown with the north korean dictator. Kanye wests embrace of
President Trump<\/a>. He sent twitter into a tizzy. Carly is following it all for us and she joins us next on that. I get along with kanye. I get along with a lot of people.

News Headlines<\/a> 24 7 reporter. You saw this happening yesterday and said oh, this will get good. Where is it now . It happened over the course of an entire day so you got to slowly watch this whole thing unfold. It didnt entirely come out of left field. He said he would have voted for
President Trump<\/a> if he voted and went to trump tower all of a sudden and he spoke to then president elect trump about multicultural issues. It surprised a lot of people when he tweeted out the make
America Great<\/a> again hat. It seals the deal he is on in on
President Trump<\/a>. Some people are saying its a publicity stunt. Others are saying he is crazy and his behavior is erratic. The president said it makes sense for him to support me because i am bringing back jobs to people who need them. Sandra it is really interesting. Kim kardashian is kanye wests wife. He clarified something. That is probably one of the most relatable tweets in the entire thing. He tweeted you know, let me just my wife just called me and wants me to clarify i dont agree with everything the president says. So proving that no matter who you are the wife rules the roost. Really lets step back and look at what kanye west is actually saying. All he is saying he is encouraging people to formulate their own opinions and keep an open mind. We live in a time where there are protests on
College Campuses<\/a> when conservatives speak. Earlier this week we talked about shania twain apologizing saying she would support the president. Kanye west is saying lets step away from that and foster an open exchange of ideas. Sandra apparently
Kim Kardashian<\/a> got flak from her fans. He is a free thinker, is that not allowed in america because you have to throw in the
Mental Health<\/a> card . Thats not fair. He is out of the sunken place when he is being himself being himself. He sent over 80 tweets yesterday. Sandra hundreds of thousands of likes, tens of thousands of retweets. He have has an album coming out. That may have something to do with it. Sandra thats a fair point. Money is always behind everything, right . Thank you. Rick james comey appearing to try to psycho analyze

President Trump<\/a>s cabinet. A trio of hearings on tap for this hearing. Scott pruitt, attorney general
Jeff Sessions<\/a> and
Homeland Security<\/a>
Kristin Nielsen<\/a> expected to face grilling from lawmakers all this as
Ronny Jackson<\/a> withdraws his nomination to run
Veterans Affairs<\/a>. Welcome to a new hour of americas newsroom. Im sandra smith. Good morning. Nice to have you here, rick. Rick im rick leventhal. Bill hemmer is off today. Scott pruitt getting ready to face lawmakers. New reaction from
President Trump<\/a> on dr. Ronny jackson. Placing the blame for his withdrawal squarely on the democrats. President trump the democrats are obstructionists. Its horrible what they are doing. They arent approving people. Taking them out to the maximum 30 hours. These are all false accusations that were made. They are trying to destroy a man. By the way, i did say welcome to washington, welcome to the swamp, welcome to the world of politics. Sandra we have
Fox Team Coverage<\/a>. Bret baier is standing by and we begin with chief intelligence correspondent
Catherine Herridge<\/a> this morning following the sessions hearing live in washington good morning. The attorney general is back on capitol hill for a second day of testimony. Yesterday pressed by senators about
Deputy Attorney<\/a> general
Rod Rosenstein<\/a> sessions saying he stands behind his work. Taking questions on the investigation of the president s personal attorney,
Michael Cohen<\/a> and whether sessions will take himself out of the
Decision Making<\/a>. Are you recused from the federal investigation of the president s attorney,
Michael Cohen<\/a> . It is the policy of the department of justice that those who have recused themselves not state the details of it or any or confirm the existence of an investigation or the scope ornate you are of that investigation. Former new york city mayor and
Legal Advisor<\/a> to the president
Rudy Giuliani<\/a> has met with special counsel
Robert Mueller<\/a>. The president expressed disappointment with the
Justice Department<\/a> about the handling of these issues and tafrmd down expectations that he would do an interview. President trump im very disappointed in my
Justice Department<\/a>. Because of the fact its going on and youll understand this, i have decided that i wont be involved. I may change my mind at some point because what is going on is a disgrace. On the hill the epa administrator scott pruitt is likely to face hard ethics questions as well. Sandra there is more evidence that director comey gave those memos to others . Thats right. After he was fired last june he testified under oath to the
Senate Intelligence<\/a> committee he gave the memos to his friend and columbia law professor
Daniel Richman<\/a>. The comey memos documenting conversations with the president were more widely shared than previously known. Former u. S. Attorney, special counsel and comey friend
Patrick Fitzgerald<\/a> as the likely recipient of the comey memos and didnt rule out a third individual in addition to
Daniel Richman<\/a> who shared contents with the new york times. Richman was also a special
Government Employee<\/a> at the f. B. I. For director comey assigned to special projects. Republican lawmakers want more information. In front of members of the judiciary and oversight committee. Nice to have a full understanding of the full relationship that mr. Comey had with the guy who orchestrated fitzgerald is also comeys personal lawyer now and he did not return foxs emails or phone calls requesting comments. The emails are the subject of a
Justice Department<\/a>
Inspector General<\/a> review because some contain classified information, sandra. Sandra
Catherine Herridge<\/a>, thank you for your reporting on that. Rick the senate is on track to confirm mike pompeo today as secretary of state. That will happen this afternoon were told. Meanwhile epa administrator scott pruitt set to testify about his budget but expected to face tough questions about alleged ethics violation. Any drama expected at this stage, mike . I definitely expect dram why with scott pruitt in front of the house energy and
Commerce Committee<\/a>. That hearing should be getting underway any moment now. Questions about his ethics and about his spending as epa administrator and whether he was the confidence of
President Trump<\/a> and top leaders at the white house. Plenty to watch for there. Elsewhere in the trump cabinet it appears mike pompeo should have enough votes to be confirmed the next secretary of state today. Several democrats in states
President Trump<\/a> won say theyll vote for mike pompeo. Heidi heitkamp, joe manchin say theyre a yes on mike pompeo. Maine independent angus king and
Alabama Democrat<\/a> doug jones say theyre yes. Mitch mcconnell said pompeo deserves overwhelming support. Should have been a lot more. This nomination really shouldnt have been so contentious but nevertheless we have the votes and he will be confirmed tomorrow and be able to get started representing our country abroad. Procedural vote should take place in two hours on the senate floor and final confirmation should come around 1 00 eastern time. Rick theyre typically bipartisan. Why are some democrats still rejecting pompeo. He was also confirmed to be cia director 6632. He had plenty of democrat support the first time around. Key democrat explains some of his issues with the pompeo nomination. Democrats on the committee have said the things that he said and did as a congressman and as a candidate in terms of statements about muslimamericans, about the lbgt community, how he conducted portions of benghazi inquiry left many of us troubled how he would be. After the votes on pompeo the senate will take up the nomination of rick purnell to be the u. S. Ambassador to germany. The timing is perfect with
Angela Merkel<\/a> heading to the white house tomorrow. Rick thanks very much, mike. Sandra and a fox news alert
Ronny Jackson<\/a> is out withdrawing his nomination to be secretary of
Veterans Affairs<\/a> and allegations of misconduct. He made the announcement in a letter this morning saying in part in my role as a doctor i have tirelessly worked to provide excellent care for all my patients. In doing so ive adhered to the highest ethical standards. Unfortunately because of how washington works these false allegations have become a distraction for this president and the important issues we must be addressing. How we give the best care to our nations heroes. Bret baier, breaking news this morning. He is out and we now await a possible another naming of this president for the v. A. He is blaming obstruction from democrats. You heard the president on fox friends saying he has another name in mind. Someone who is more political perhaps. Someone who has worked the swamp in the president s words. And has some history here. It was not a surprise, really, once you heard the president in that press conference with the french president say i wouldnt do it. Saying to dr. Jackson, i wouldnt continue because you are getting attacked like this. It kind of did open the door or give him an exit ramp to do that. Weve followed all the allegations, which jackson vigorously denies and the president denies. Now jackson goes back to being the white house physician. I will say senator tester and others on capitol hill say theyll continue their investigation into some of these allegations so it may not be the end of this. Sandra you heard a fired up president this morning when he appeared on fox friends. He had a lot to say, bret. But that is one area where you did hear a great sense of frustration. I think so. There is a frustration. This is washington and this is why people hate washington but there are choices made. There are choices made how the nominee was brought forward and the vetting before that point and choices made by the democratic leadership of those committees, including senator tester, to put it out to the press as opposed to going to the white house and saying we have this. These are allegations unconfirmed. And what are you going to do about it . There were choices on both sides that critics would say is what washington is ugly about. Sandra meanwhile you have got a huge moment coming up tonight where youll be getting your chance to sit down on this network to talk to james comey, the former director of the f. B. I. Last night, bret, he referenced that upcoming interview when speaking to anderson cooper. Listen to this. You lauering up . I should have said this before. The facts matter here. Ill be on another network tomorrow that thinks i should be in jail. That was quite something. First of all, we ask questions. Weve been following this and investigating this. We can say the
Fox News Network<\/a> does not think that james comey should be in jail as a statement of fact. We are asking questions that lawmakers are asking on capitol hill. Believe it or not after this book rollout and the book tour, now the questions tonight were looking for substance and there are things on the table that have not been asked. And this is special reports bite at the apple. Well have him live in studio and well see what comes out of it. Sandra we look forward to that. There was also this moment where james comey took he took the moment to analyze the way the president thinks. Listen to this. His only
Reference Point<\/a> is internal. What will bring me what i need . What will fill this hole in me . Get me the affirmation i crave . That is deeply concerning because the only way you make hard decisions is by looking to the external
Reference Point<\/a>s. Sandra that was his response in answering a question about the president s leadership style. I think there are many questions to ask about james comeys leadership style his decisions along the way. Specific substance we havent heard as of yet. I hope to get some of that tonight. Sandra we should let you go prepare for that. Well be watching bret bret baier only on special report at 6 00 p. M. Eastern time on the fox news channel. I dont know about you but rick, i will be watching. Rick absolutely. Sandra i will be sitting down ready for that. Rick james comey saving the best for last with bret who also has
Dragon Energy<\/a> by the way. Sandra were going back to the kanye west comment. Rick i love that he has so much to be asked that hasnt been asked yet. We know bret will do it. There is a stunning new pentagon report blaming the u. S. Militarys shortcomings from the deadly ambush that killed four u. S. Soldiers in niger. Sandra mike pompeo expected to be confirmed later today despite opposition from most democrats. We are talking to senator john thune about the controversial confirmation. Rick republicans hard to take joe manchins seat in the midterms. First they have to find their nominee. We talk to one of the more controversial candidates
Don Blankenship<\/a> about his hotly contested primary. One second. Barely enough time for this man to take a bite of turkey. But for cyber criminals its plenty of time to launch thousands of attacks. Luckily security analysts and watson are on his side. Spotting threats faster and protecting his data with the most securely encrypted main frame in the world. Its a smart way to eat lunch in peace. Sweet, oblivious peace. Sandra a massive manhunt underway in maine after a sheriffs deputy is shot and killed. Police are looking for this man, 29yearold john williams. They believe he shot the deputy, then stole the deputys police car and robbed a convenience store. State police wasting no time issuing warnings. He is an ongoing public threat. He needs to be he is considered armed and dangerous. If people encounter him they shouldnt approach him but call 911. Be aware of their surroundings. Sandra the
Police Officer<\/a> was a 13 year veteran. The flags will be lowered to half staff. When you have people voting for john kerry both republicans and democrats, yet they question mike pompeo. That tells you there is something broken in the system. That this isnt just about
President Trump<\/a> but it is about political politics of the worst kind. Rick
Sarah Sanders<\/a> calling outlaw makers for their reluctance to back mike pompeo as secretary of state. But today after weeks of democratic stonewalling the former congressman and c. I. A. Director is expected to be confirmed and the vote coming as multiple
Foreign Policy<\/a> issues are on the front burner. Lets bring in senator john thune the senate gop conference chairman to talk about this. Thank you for being with us. Are you surprised at the length of the pompeo confirmation process . They drug it out as long as they could and you heard
Sarah Sanders<\/a> say it. She is absolutely right. This is totally about politics. There is absolutely no reason that you wouldnt with all the threats that we face, the array of threats we face around the globe get our top diplomat in particularly as well he was first place in harvard, captain in the army. Head of the c. I. A. , member of the intelligence committee. His resume is perfect for his position. The fact there are only a handful of democrats willing to support him when he comes up for a vote today suggests really that this is totally and purely about politics. Again, john kerry got 94 votes in the senate. Hillary clinton got 94 votes in the senate. This has been a battle to try and get him into a position where we really need him at this moment. Rick the president on our air this morning called democrats obstructionists. No question about that, rick. The democrats have taken it to a whole new level just to put a fine point on that in the last six president s combined the first two years there have only been 24 times when there have already been 88 with this president. The democrats have obstructed and fill bus terd 88. That is a staggering statistic when you think about it. Rick the president says what is going on in washington now is a disgrace. Youve been in washington for a couple decades now. Have you seen a dramatic shift in tone and process . You know, look, we always have our differences. Thats what politics is about. Most of us who get into this business realize you have to mix it up. Whats happening now is really unprecedented. The level of obstructionism and just complete and utter contempt for this president by the democrats and their willingness to do anything they can to undermine his agenda is a whole new level and at least in the time ive been here. It was on display with mike pompeos nomination. This is just absolutely insane what were having to deal with as a result of this obstruction. Rick one of the confirmation hearings we havent talked a lot about is rick ronelle who was nominated last july to be ambassador to germany and right now he may be confirmed. Its another example of them dragging it out and making it hard for the president to get people in their positions. Most of us in congress through the years try to be defer this is the first time ive seen in the time ive been here the level of obstructionism to try to prevent this president from getting these people in position. An ambassador to germany is another example of something that should be noncontroversial which has been drug out for months and leaving a very important position and a very important country at a critical time in our worlds history vacant. There is no excuse for that. Rick if i could get your reaction to the drama surrounding dr. Ronny jackson. Its unfortunate. And again the democrats, well never get a chance to know how much of this is true. Dr. Jackson was denying a lot of it and obviously the democrats were dredging up some of this stuff. Its unfortunate it ended the way it did. Clearly we need somebody in that position to represent and work on behalf of our nations finest and those are our veterans. I hope the next nominee is somebody we can get confirmed quickly but it is when you see what nominees have to go through in this process, it is a wonder that anybody is willing to serve. Rick we have to go. Senator thune, thank you in the swamp. Sandra new reaction from
President Trump<\/a> describing his historic meeting with kim jongun. President trump it could be i walk out quickly with respect. Maybe the meeting wont take place. Who knows .

Liberty stands with you\u2122. Liberty mutual insurance. I accept i dont i even accept i i used thave a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. But no matter where i ride, i go for my best. So if theres
Something Better<\/a> than warfarin, ill go for that too. Eliquis. Eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin, plus had less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis had both. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Im still going for my best. And for eliquis. Ask your doctor about eliquis. You know whats not awesome . Gigspeed internet. When only certain people can get it. Lets fix that. Lets give this guy gig really . And these kids, and these guys, him, ah. Oh hello. That lady, these houses yes, yes and yes.

Jeb bush talking about his parents enduring relationship. The love story my mom and dad have had over 73 years of marriage. It is moving for our family. He went into the hospital literally six hours after the internment of my mom. And but the guy is stronger than an ox. He is back out of icu and hopefully will be leaving the hospital on friday. I believe he is the greatest man alive and i want him to stay alive for a little bit longer. Sandra we look forward to seeing the 41st president out of the hospital. Rick south korea now giving
President Trump<\/a> credit for opening the door to talks with north korea as north and south prepare for tomorrows landmark summit. President trump earlier discussing c. I. A. Director mike pompeos recent meeting with north
Korean Leader<\/a> kim jongun. President trump mike pompeo did go there. He wasnt supposed to meet with kim jongun. They were with each other for more than an hour. They spoke and he also spoke with his counterparts in north korea. They had a great meeting. He then left. Rick
Senior Foreign Affairs<\/a> correspondent greg palkot is live in seoul, south korea. What can we expect at this summit, greg . In 12 hours time this historic summit should kick off. It is happening in the dmz, the area between north and south korea about 20 miles from where we are. High security. Most of the media kept away. The
First Time Since<\/a> the korean war that a north korea leader, kim jongun, will step his foot into south korea where most of the ceremonies are taking place in this thing. It seems that south korean president moon will have his hands full. One part of the agenda we have been told not completely worked out is the important bit. How to pry the nukes away from north korea. Of course, thats the main thrust of the upcoming kim trump summit as well. Rick we heard kim jongun might be willing to give up the nukes. Well have to wait and see. You spent time with a key participant in the upcoming talks. Any insight there . Yeah, a lot of insights, rick. There are about a half dozen officials backing up the top person on either side on the southern side. We spoke with the foreign minister of south korea and she told us this 12 summit punch might present opportunities. Take a look at what we heard. It does indicate that we have an historic opportunity to resolve the north
Korean Nuclear<\/a> and missile threat once and for all. While she told us there were many reasons why the talks have gotten to this point, she does give a lot of credit to
President Trump<\/a>. Take a listen again. I think he clearly saw this as an immediate and most challenging
Global Security<\/a> agenda not just for the
United States<\/a> but the whole world. She added, rick, that
President Trump<\/a>s messaging actually changed the minds of the north
Korean Leader<\/a>ship. We will see. Back to you. Rick key words historic opportunity. Greg, thank you. Sandra a cold case turns red hot after a decades long search for a serial killer and rapist comes to an end. It is a day where they can especially women who were raped and survived.

President Trump<\/a> honoring wounded veterans highlighting the importance of managing
Mental Health<\/a> through physical activity connecting warriors with one another and services to empower them to live their lives on their own terms. Rick scott pruitt facing tough questions from the house energy and
Commerce Committee<\/a> over alleged ethics violations. How can the public trust your discretion to make fair decisions when it comes to those biases . This was an effort to insure transparency. As we do rulemaking at the agency. Based on your record should the public trust your
Decision Making<\/a> here with hypocrisy that would exist in the system you defined. It is a support of trance pair see for all rulemaking at the agency. This is programmatic offices making decisions on rules based upon trance pairens. It boils down to an issue of trust. You developed a system where you pick winners and losers, pit the public against the industry or picking favorites within the industry and there is a hypocritical outcome to it all. With that, mr. Chair, i yield back. I thank for colleague for staying within time. We recognize congressman walden for five minutes. Many reviews are going on at the epa. Government accountability and other congressional committees about some of these concerns you are hearing about today, mr. Administrator and raised in the media. My question is easy. Will you commit the epa will provide the committee with all the documents the epa produces for those inquiries. Sandra absolutely. This committee is charged with legislative and oversight responsibility for the bulk of the statutes where the epa implements. Help me understanding your principles to determine spending money using any kind of previous spending guidance to make these decisions . Congressman, i believe that as we are making decisions we have policy and guidelines at the agency that drive those decisions. Some of them attributable to the science part of our office but they govern our decisions every day. Similar to the guidelines that governed your predecessors decisions . Yes. These are policies that predated our time from travel to internal
Decision Making<\/a> on allocation of dollars to serve offices. These are predated policies that govern our actions every day. The issue of science and transparency. I have had a lot of constituents over the years who are very concerned about decisions in various agencies that get made by administrators or the bureaucracy and so some cases they cant get access to the data that underpins the decision. The proposal you put forward this last week or so, how does that address that issue . Are we going to get science that everybody gets a chance to see that can be replicated and
Peer Reviewed<\/a> so we are all working off facts . This is an interest of congress. There has been proposed legislation to address this very issue. It was a regulatory action taken this week, proposed rule that actually goes to the heart of transparency as i was trying to share earlier. When we do rulemaking we cant publish the conclusion the summaries and studies. What has happened historically is third party provides summaries and studies and used the conclusions as a basis of rulemaking but not published the data for methods that supported the conclusion. So those that are commenting on rules were illequipped to be able to understand whether the conclusions were rightly concluded or not. This is an effort on our part to ensure as we do science at the agency whether its internal at the epa or third parties as far as their find, data, methodology and conclusions should all be part of the package. Are you trying to make more or less
Information Available<\/a> to the public . More. Youll require every one of these decisions or whatever theyre based on, the data and methodology as well as the conclusions are transparent and available to your public. How will we know this . It is a proposed rule and something were taking comments on. Im sure there will be a wide array of comment on that proposal. The objective is to insure transparency with respect to the science that we rely upon in making our decisions and rulemaking. As you know, last year and then i think we actually passed it into law this year this committee unanimously i believe here and in the house rewrote brown peels legislation and working together to write the clean water drinking act. What are you doing to help clean up the brown field sites that litter our neighborhoods and country. We issued a series of grants for that program. It has been a tremendous success reclaiming polluted areas across the country to allow communities to once again enjoy those areas. Congress and omnibus provided money for us to enhance that program were seeking to partner with communities all over the country to make sure these areas are cleaned up and able to be enjoyed again by these communities. I want to follow up on new fuel standards. Mr. Flores and mr. Shimkus and others. Rick he is under fire or lavish spending and ethics violation. Well continue to monitor. Sandra we continue to follow one of the senate races in the midterms to unseat senator joe manchin is virginia. A fox news poll shows our next guest at 16 support. He is running for senate in
West Virginia<\/a>. Thank you for your time this morning. A lot of people watching this race and the country is watching this race. Whats the status at this moment . I think the poll is light on our side because the undecided is so high and the incumbents that have been career politicians dont total 50 . We think it looks very good. Sandra sounds like youre optimistic and the undecided number. 24 of
West Virginia<\/a> gop primary voters are undecided in this race and a bigger number 41 say they are currently backing a candidate say they could change their mind before they actually cast their vote. So i just wonder what makes you uniquely qualified for this position. Well, i think the big issue in
West Virginia<\/a> is jobs. Im the guy that created a lot of jobs in
West Virginia<\/a>. Neither of my opponents did. So i think im in a better position to help with jobs. Im also better position to deal with the
Opioid Epidemic<\/a> and so forth because we had to deal with drug issues at the company for many years. Sandra you have made
National Headlines<\/a> for a couple
Different Reasons<\/a> in recent weeks and days. One of them is you decided in the middle of your campaign to take on the
Senate Majority<\/a> leader
Mitch Mcconnells<\/a> family. Here that is. I have an issue when the fatherinlaw is a wealthy person and there is a lot of connections to some of the brass in china. I dont have anything against his wife. I am just saying its her father that is wellconnected in china. Sandra youre referencing the transportation secretary and what your intention was with that target on mcconnell and his family. Well, its not a target on his family at all. Just an observation that mitchs family is very wellconnected in china in the past and that we are going to be making a lot of trade and tariff decisions with china and have a lot of other legal dealings with china so we need to make sure as we do in business or anywhere else that there is not any conflict of interest. But i also need to correct that mr. Mcconnell attacked me far before i said anything. So he obviously doesnt want an antiestablishment candidate in congress and he is out there spending a million and a half dollars trying to stop it but i think it will help us. Sandra i want to get his response to your attack on him here. My fatherinlaw is an america who lives and works in new york and i dont have any comment about ridiculous observations like that. Im not in that race but i hope they nominate somebody who can actually win the general election. Sandra everybody is watching this. You are polling 16 right now, mr. Blankenship. You spent a year in jail. Formerly the ceo of a coal company that had a mining disaster because of some safety problems that you were blamed for. Leave us off with when we watch this and well be watching that debate next week with bret and martha, your final thoughts as we all look on at this. Well, nearly everything you said there is incorrect. I was never charged with anything to do with the explosion. I was charged with crimes totally unrelated. The
Obama Administration<\/a> required that the air be changed before the mine exploded. People know the obama establishment was anticoal. We certainly intend to win the election and make a difference in washington sandra its something were all watching. Thank you for coming on the program this morning. We appreciate your time. Thank you. Sandra be sure to watch what could be a
Pivotal Moment<\/a> in that

Commerce Committee<\/a> about lavish spending and ethics violations. He has been on the hot seat for some time. He is answering questions this morning. Lets listen to this from a few moments ago. Let me be very clear i have nothing to hide as it relates to how ive run the agency the past 16 months. Im not afraid to admit there has been a learning process. When congress or independent bodies of oversight find fault in our
Decision Making<\/a> i want to correct that and ensure it doesnt happen again. Sandra scott pruitt on the hot seat on capitol hill today. Well monitoring it for you and bring you the news out of it as we get it. President trump he is a liar. Not only on this stuff. He has been leaking for years. He has probably been using his friend, the socalled professor who turns out to be f. B. I. Clearance which he never said. He lied about that. He never said that in congress. He said he gave it to a friend. He gave it to a friend to leak classified information. Rick
President Trump<\/a> sounding off this morning responding to new details about former f. B. I. Director james comey after comey went on defense about the leaking of memos he wrote about conversations he had in the oval office. Lets bring in our panel former advisor to president bill clinton doug shown and kris wilson a former
Ted Cruz Campaign<\/a> pollster. Thank you for being here. Jim comey last night said that he didnt leak, he gave the memo to a friend to give to the press. Isnt that the same thing . I would think so. I mean, i have to tell you as a democrat who watched comeys testimonies, his interviews, read his book, i come away deeply disquieted when an f. B. I. Director effectively makes his own rules, his own laws, and his own judgments using polls, using perceptions of what the attorney general should or should not have been doing. Im disquieted and i want this investigation to run its course to see if what the president said this morning on fox friends is, in fact, the case and whether charges are warranted. Rick critics have said jim comey is not doing himself any favors with this book tour. He is not. I agree with doug. I think james comey. I also read his book. He brought a lot of this on himself. What he has done is politicized this process and doug is right. If you want an investigation to go forward the last thing you should do is politicize it. Comey is acting more like a candidate for
Public Office<\/a> than a
Law Enforcement<\/a> officer. Somebody ought to check the bookstore and see how many stops in iowa and new hampshire. The p. R. Campaign he is forming around himself is disturbing and not good for the process in general. Rick speaking of process dr. Ronny jackson dropped out to be head of the v. A. This morning. What do you guys think about that . I think it was sadly necessary. He says the allegations are completely untrue. The allegations as allegations are very serious. So i think ultimately he made the right decision for himself and the country. But i think we have a process that is corrosive where people who have gotten great reports from three president s have their character, integrity and professionalism impugned without a chance to apply. Sandra were awaiting remarks from
President Trump<\/a> as you can see there. Veterans filing in for a wounded veterans ceremony at the white house this morning. We will take you there live when it begins.

Prevagen. The name to remember. Sandra a major breakthrough in a cold case dating back to the late 70s as authorities arrest a suspect believed to be the golden state killer. He is being identified as a former
Police Officer<\/a>. We have the story from sacramento this morning. You can almost hear the collective sigh of relief in sacramento and throughout california. Victims expressing joy and gratitude that an arrest has been made after so many years. Police identified 72yearold
Joseph James Dangelo<\/a> as a vietnam war veteran and a
Police Officer<\/a> in the 1970s during the time these horrific crimes were haeng. The socalled east area rapist frequently targeted women in their bedrooms wearing a ski mask, shining a light in their face and a knife to their throat and calling them later on the phone. Police took him into custody tuesday night at the home he shared with his daughter and granddaughter in suburban sacramento. Neighbors say he kept to himself but go into a rage at the slightest annoyance. We used to call him freak because he used to have these tantrums out in the front. He would yell so loud that you could hear him yelling from inside the house. In the mid 70s dangelo was a
Police Officer<\/a> in the city of auburn until he was fired for shopping lifting in 1979. Soon after that rapes and killings in a pattern with reported in the bay area and
Southern California<\/a> where he was known as the golden state killer. His
Police Training<\/a> likely helped him allude capture for so many years. Dedicated police work and advances in
Forensic Science<\/a> led investigators to look at dna and a discarded dna sample from dangelo that pointed them in the right direction. It was like finding a needle in a hay stack. He makes his first appearance on multiple counts of murder tomorrow. If convicted he could be sentenced to death. Sandra thank you, claudia. Rick remarkable story. Meanwhile the president s nominee for secretary of
Veterans Affairs<\/a> withdraws amid a cloud of allegations of misconduct. President trumps strong reaction coming up next. Weve been watching for the
