People on their hands who are unable to jump through all their hoops. Amanda says, plenty fair. I have to work to feed them and myself. Any sign of fraud should result in permanent loss of food stamps. You know, i like that. Work for a living. Uhhuh. Thanks, everyone, who responded for us. Fox friends starts now. Have a good day. Bye. Well, good wednesday morning to you, it is march 30th, 2016. Im ainsley earhardt. Donald Trump Defends his Campaign Manager now facing charge for grabbing a reporter. I have to stand by him. Im very glad that we were able to produce the tape because i dont see anything. He is standing by his man. Some say this is actually going to help donald trump. In other news, isis hackers putting targets on the backs of dozens of american cops, publishing their personal information, where they live. The most terrifying part of all,
how easy it was for them to get the information. Check out this photo bomb. A hostage on an egypt air asked for and gets a picture with a hijacker who at the time was thought to be strapped with explosives. Would you have done that . Well find out about the guy that did it, and hes an american and told his friend and his mom was worried. Let me let you take that in when i remind you that mornings are better with friends. Hi, welcome to studio e here in the heart of midtown manhattan. Its going to be a pretty nice day i think by the time its over. I hope so. Yesterday at this time, we were talking about a hijacking that was taking place. Not everybody was nervous. Look at this guy. I know. He says, could you get somebody in the cabin crew that knows arabic . Id like to take a picture with the wouldbe body bomber. That shows what was going on inside. They probably werent so scared,
worried. Or maybe this guy is trying to get the picture with him, buddy up with him to get the picture, then give the picture to police. Im glad we have the picture. Well talk about it all morning. Im glad we have it now. I wanted to see what this guy looked like. Speaking of pictures, lets take you back a couple of weeks ago to Trump National jupiter, trumps golf course in jupiter, florida. You see the video. The Trump Organization released video from one of the showrooms. It shows as donald trump makes his way through the crowd, his Campaign Manager brushes aside Michelle Fields, a reporter. After that incident, she filed charges against him. Yesterday he was charged by the Jupiter Police with simple battery, which in florida law is pretty simple. If somebody touches or strikes another person against their will, which apparently it was against her will, that thing right there, she could file
charges, and she did. She did. Now they have filed charges against him, the cops have. Donald trump was talking about this last night with sean hannity. Listen to what he said. Im concerned, im glad that we were able to produce the tape because i dont see anything. I see virtually nothing. And were going destroy a mans life over this . You know, theyre chopping off heads, drowning people in the middle east. Were going to destroy a mans life . Hes got four beautiful children and a wife in new hampshire. And were going to destroy his life because somebody makes a charge . By the way, did you notice how that charge changed after she found out that donald trump produced a tape . If didnt produce the tape, it would have been much worse because look at the statements she made. She was dragged down i had it written down, forcefully throw reporters to the ground. I mean, Campaign Manager arent supposed to forcefully throw reporters to the ground. What ground . In fact, if you look at her
face, her expression doesnt even change. I mean, donald Trump Defends had guy. On some level, hes got to be ticked off. He sits down for 90 minutes with the New York Times, about an hour with the Washington Post to talk about Foreign Policy on the heels of president obama doing the same with the atlantic magazine. Hes saying, bring on the issues, be critical, be supportive. Instead, hes got to talk about what happened two weeks ago. As david pouf tweets, a president ial Campaign Managers job is to manage the circus, not become one. One thing he says publicly, defend him. Behind the scenes, hes got to be saying, cory, i got secret service, my own special security. Keep your hands off people. I dont need you there. A week later, hes doing something similar. Justified or not. As a Campaign Manager, keep your hands off people. I need to become president of the United States. This does not help me. Then again, you have to praise him for the loyalty. It sound like donald trump is
standing by because he appreciates corys loyalty. Lester holty to whoyalty to . To him. You cant be grabbing reporters because you know its going to become the story. I agree. I think thats what donald trump is thinking, hes coming up at 7 30 this morning. And i think you should ask him about that. If this is distracting to him. A lot of people say its going to help him. Meanwhile, piers morgan has a message to Michelle Fields, the reporter who wrote this, filed charges and has been charged by cops. He says, if a male reporter cried battery after such a trivial incident, hed be an absolute laughingstock. Why should a female reporter be taken any more seriously . By making such a grotesque mountain out of a tiny molehill, Michelle Fields has embarrassed herself and let down her profession. Toughen up, young lady, or choose a different job. Meanwhile, what does this mean for the election . You know, theres going to be a
big primary in wisconsin in a couple of days. Charles lane from the Washington Post was on with bret baier last night. He says this could help trump. Almost every other ostensibly negative thing has somehow worked in trumps favor. It demonstrates one again the basic reflex of trump, that in any situation, his instinct is to sort of make a counter accusation, right . To admit nothing, deny everything, and say wait a minute, they started it. And thats what he did here. He said, she grabbed me. And and so hes displacing the blame on to her. And i think with a lot of his fans, that will be enough. It will be enough will it be enough to get the women vote, independents . Not his fans. His fans are this big, and theyre strong and passionate. They brought him to where he is now. For him to be successful, hes got to get these people and got to get these people. What about michelle . She didnt have a choice. She asked for an apology, didnt give the apology. Thats what she said on megyn kellys show on march 16th after the incident happened. She didnt get the apology. Now the video comes out, she files she filed charges. Right. Dont you think at this that point, she said her reputation was smeared. Maybe she had to file charges so she could say to her next employer, hey, look at this. Good point. I charged him. He was charged. Police thought he did something wrong. Good point. When you look at the video, though, does it look like something you know, if you think it assault, does that look like assault to the average person . To the average person no, but you know what that feels like as a journalist . You want to please your bosses and come back with the story and say, i got that interview with him. Shes asking him a few questions. In piers morgans article, he does make a good point. He says, she touched donald trump twice before. And then shes charging cory with battery. The definition of battery, like you were saying, is touching someone against someones will. She was doing that to trump. You spelled that out great. I think that was exactly the issue. What kills me is either youre assaulted or not. If you apologize to me, im not really insulted. If you do apologize, im not forget that. That to me destroys her argument in many respects. Bottom line is, this is what we should be talking about. Americans are on high alert again. Now in turkey. The families of our military men and women are asked to leave turkey in southern time as soon as possible because its getting too dangerous. Too dangerous in the middle east. Basically, im not exaggerating here, in flames in three of four separate nations. Now, turkey, a natonatoal na ally, saying we cant vouch for your safety. And isis vowing to take out some schools in turkey. And so the state department is warning people, you know, if you can, go home. With this backdrop of how things
are in flames, yesterday the news was that somebody had taken an airplane hostage. They had hijacked it. It was en route from alexandria in egypt to cairo. To cairo. And somewhere along the way, this guy right here put on what looked like a bomb belt. As it turns out, it was not. It was harmless. This guy here from leads, england, didnt know that. And when he was one of the last guys on the plane, he asked one of the Flight Attendants to translate for him, hey, could you ask the hijacker if i could take a picture with you. He said, sure, come on over. They took a picture, and he tweeted it to his friends. While it was going on. It was real. They said, ben will be ben. Think about in that situation you would not do that if you felt that there was a threat, i would assume. Maybe he was doing it to help police. Im glad, now we have a picture. Im looking at the bell, people questioning how did he get through security. How is this guy ive heard that securitys lax domestically in egypt. However, if you look at this picture, all it is, some cords and a fanny pack or like a white gauze or whatever which, by the way, is a red alert for any tsa agent. I thought in his carryon, he could be carrying did you see her grab him . Not against her will. Depends on him. Was that against her will . If she apologizes, ill let it go. Im sorry. Lets move on. Apparently this guy said, i figured if his bomb was real, his nothing to lose. So i took a chance to get a closer look at it. Look at his face. When he tweeted, people were going, okay, that doesnt look like a real bomb on that guy. I love the foreign ministry. It says hes not a terrorist, hes an idiot. Anyway, he did it apparently for love. Thats where cypress is where his exwife lives women love it when you take over a plane because you love them. His exwife. Theres a reason its his
exwife. I will say as a mother, he has four kids. He needs help. Lets hand it over to heather. That will make you change your mind. Exwife. Operative word is ex. Exactly. We have other stories that we have been following other than that. We do begin with this fox news alert. An isis hacking group, this is disturbing, posts the personal information of dozens of new Jersey TransitPolice Officers, encouraging followers to carry out lone wolf attacks against them. The list includes the names and personal information of 55 past and present officers. New Jersey Transit says the information was breached from an outside vendor. The department of Homeland Security and the fbi are assisting in the investigation. Speaking of the fbi, they apparently touched off dutch police a week before a pair of terrorist brother blew themselves up in coordinated attacks in brussels. Police say they alerted belgium a day after learning the information from the fbi. More than 30 people were killed in the brothers attacks. Meantime, two americans seriously injured are back stateside. Missionaries, theyre recovering in a utah hospital. Apple, they refused to give the fbi the help it needed. Now the tech giant needs the fbis assistance. Apple is asking the fbi to reveal how it managed to crack the code on a terrorist iphone. This as new reports suggest that maybe an Israeli Software company helped the feds bypass security firewalls used by San Bernardino gunman sayed farook. And hollywood mourning the loss of actress patty duke. Duke had a long career in film and television, including a starring role in the patty duke show. She also won an oscar for playing helen keller in the movie, the miracle worker. Thats when she was just 16 years old. Dukes son, actor sean austin astin, he posted this picture of his Mother Holding him as a baby, along with a short tribute. Patty duke, she was just 69 years old. Those are a look at your headlines so far this morning. Gosh. She was so young. Remember that show i loved the show. Absolutely. I always thought there were two of them. No. Identical cousins. Thats right. Like the parent trap. She played both twins lizzie malone. In the new one. Who was the actress in the old parent trap . I loved that movie. I dont know. It was in black and white. I saw the new one. I loved it. Straight ahead on this wednesday, a brandnew wave of attack ads are flooding the airwaves. Only one candidate scored during the dial treatment. Thats coming up next. Yep. The dial treatment, steve. And a gps unit tells the driver to bear right, but the kids in the back took it much differently. They said bear right. He said bear right. Hilarious. The kids thought there was a bear on the right. Some say free the whales. For them, nothing else is acceptable. But nothing could be worse for the whales. Most of the orcas at seaworld were born here. Sending them into the wild wouldnt be noble. It could be fatal. When they freed keiko, the killer whale of movie fame, the effort was a failure and he perished. But we also understand that times have changed. Today, people are concerned about the Worlds Largest animals like never before. So we too must change. Thats why the orcas in our care will be the last generation at seaworld. There will be no more breeding. Were also phasing out orca theatrical shows. Theyll continue to receive the highest
standard of care available anywhere. And guests can come to see them simply being their majestic selves. Inspiring the next generation of people to love them as you do. Ohomestyle sounds good.

good morning, everyone. President ial candidates ramping up attack ads in their race for the white house. Which ones will have the most
impact . Pollster lee carter hadere to break it down. Lets start with cruz, trump, or sanders . Cruz. Heres the super pac ad for ted cruz. If you dont want donald trump to win, your choice comes down to this math. Only ted cruz can beat donald trump. John kasich cant do it. The math wont work. A vote for kasich helps trump by dividing the opposition. Its time to put differences aside, to stop trump, vote for cruz. And of course, the republicans, blue, red is democrats, independents, yellow. A c . A c. It was a pretty average line there. The thing that was interesting, we did a poll with voters after they saw the commercials to see what stuck. This was a particularly effective ad in that it made people think, they thought,
well, if im up between cruz and kasich and im antitrump, what do i do . This is a trump ad that was effective. The polling between 1 and 2 in wisconsin just for cruz. He needs to tip it a bit. And this is the math that could do it. On the clear average, trump has a twopoint lead. Governor walker is endorsing him, and ads like this are running. Bernie sanders, wbr id wbr11667 to give you a clue, everybody an idea, you love this. People loved this. Heres Bernie Sanders from his campaign. Bernie sanders, the courage to stand up to big oil because he wont take their money. Thats why sanders said no to the Keystone Pipeline and never waffled. Sanders has a farreaching plan to address climate change, combating Carbon Pollution which can cause asthma and lung disease. Sanders can reduce the dependence on offensively fuel and create new jobs in clean energy. Bernie wbr id wbr11967 sanders, people before polluters. If you worry about the b
nomination, you like the blue line there. Thats right. If you look at this, Bernie Sanders, he released three ads this week. This was one of them. Gave it an a. All the voters across the board, especially on the democratic side, clear message. Anticompany, im on the side of the people, im going to create jobs and opportunities for everyone. Now i want to roll trump in and talk about it. This is an anticruz ad for trump. And of course, this so much on the line with wisconsin. What do people think about this ad . Basically, what do you think . It talks about with friends like these, who needs enemies. It was just an average c. It wasnt enough to stick. There are so many things they can criticize cruz for. Most people say, you know, he seems like a typical politician even though hes an outsider. That was a more effective attack that donald trump was having on cruz. This endorsement stuff didnt necessarily work. It didnt stick. He has a lot more that he can do. Sanders get the best grades. He does. All right. Thanks. Meanwhile, coming up straight ahead, Donald Trumps righthand man charged with battery for allegedly grabbing a
reporter. Does that reporter really have a case . Well debate that legally next. At old dominion, we ship everything you can imagine. And everything we ship has something in common. Whether its expedited overnight. Or shipped around the globe,. Its handled
