Especially mine. Happy mothers day and well see you next fox news sunday. This is the fox report. Tonight, we are learning how they voted, and about violence at the polls. People in Eastern Ukraine deciding if they will break away and join russia and all eyes on capitol hill right now as we wait to see if democrats will take part in the search for answers about that terror attack on americans at a u. S. Consulate in libya. I have said from day one, i want this to transcend politics and i want it to inspire trust in you and our fellow citizens. The head of a special panel set to get to the bottom of benghazi. Vowing to take his investigation wherever the facts lead, but are
congressmans trey gowdys words enough to get democrats on board. I hope he sticks to what he said. The rules will determine if this is a fair process. We can never let this kind of outrage, if all of this true stand in this country. The fury growing deeper over the scandal surrounding the veterans affairs. Allegations of secret waiting lists. Now the question, should the man in charge lose his job . As a veteran myself, this is especially offensive. I think lets see what he does right now. Does he get on this and make changes . And talking up the 2016 president ial race already, and look who says hes ready. Im harris faulkner. Lets start with ukraine. Reports of deadly violence in a polling station at eastern part of that country. The polls are closed now. One pro russian official call the turnout collossal and while the official results are not expected to come until tomorrow the u. S. And rest of the world are already dismissing them. The u. S. State department is calling it illegal in fact. Ukrainians who live inside russia were given kind of an absentee voting right to go to a polling station in moscow. Thats despite calls by Vladimir Putin not to hold that vote. Greg, violence at the polls, as i just mentioned, what happened . Reporter yeah, harris. That was a big fear all through this day and we saw in heavy security in and around the polling places and it happened. It happened in a town on the western side of the donetsk region. They moved to shut down voting in the place. Townspeople blocked them. They were shooting in the air and some shots in the crowd. Local accounts say one dead, one injured. We do not have that confirmed. Apparently got too hot in the town and they left. Leaving a lot of very angry people there. Pro Russian Forces are already saying that they have gotten some early results, so what are they . Reporter early results came in just a couple of hours after the polling places closed, harris, with turnout of about 75 . They claim 89 said yes for selfrule, 10 said no in the region above donetsk. Youve got to question this very strongly. It was pretty much clear to us during the day it was going to go yes. We can see through the transparent ballot box. A lot of irregularities. The question of a ballot was purposely vague. Our feeling was that if you were not in favor of this, basically, you stayed home. You know, it was interesting too, greg, on the wires, they said the information from the polling was coming from pro russian insurgents. Well have to weight for the official ruling on this. What is next for this region . Reporter now, were basically looking for further reaction, harris. Were already hearing from one separatist leader and he is sounding like he will be announcing on monday there will be a new country here. He wants to establish new national or ganction also key, harris, will be russia. Vladimir putin has been playing a very careful game in this. It was widely thought that he was basically backing this kind of activity. In the past couple of days he distanced himself from it, but well be waiting to see what russia says about it, and again Ukrainian Military here throughout this region, that is a big question mark, and also another big question mark, may 25th, president ial elections, supposed to be happening across ukraine. Its hard to believe it could happen here. A lot of questions, harris. Just hearing what you are saying, the projection that maybe this is a new country taking form in eastern europe, what about the ukrainians who loved the old one. Well watch the story. Back here in the United States now on the growing scandal surrounding the veterans administration. Two separate va facilities in wyoming and arizona accused of manipulating data to try to hide massive backlogs of patients who were waiting for care. At a hospital in arizona 40
veterans died waiting for help. A new temporary director was named there yesterday. In an outcry now to do more to right the wrongs against the men and women who served our country. Illinois congressman adam kingser says this is an issue the air force and president obama needs to address together. This is a problem with bureaucracy. The people that really deserve this, those that put their life on the line for our country are the ones who get on the short end of this. And what is next in the story . Va secretary shinseki who is a veteran of the vietnam war, is expected to testify this week. The topic heats up in our
nations capitol hill. The other big issue to watch for, the select committee set up to investigate the terror attack on our u. S. Consulate in benghazi, libya. Will democrats make it bipartisan . That panel made official on thursday with seven house republicans. Those people were named, and that leaves five spots now open for democrats if they choose to use them. Some democrats have said they want to boycott that panel claiming its politically motivated. Something the man leading the investigation, South Carolina congressman trey gowdy flatly denies. Were going to go where the facts to take. They are not republican or democratic. They are facts. If we engage in a process thats not fair according to the American People, we will be punished as we should be for that. Steve is live in washington where theres been a lot of
reaction to this tonight, steve. You are right. The republicans want to find out what led to the attack and whether the white house was engaged in a coverup after the fact. At different times, you know, the administration said the attack was triggered by an anti muslim video. Trey gowdy says theres Vital Information he needs to gather through the committee process. I dont have access to intel. I dont have access to sources and methods. I dont have access ive never interviewed susan rice about anything. Ive never had an opportunity to ask the secretary of state questions about the leadup to benghazi and why we were stale there. Trey gowdy says that hearing is needed to bring to break down the barriers among the committees that have gone before and have had hearings and to bring a less fragmented approach to investigating benghazi. I know from our reporting there was at least one democrat leader who called it a huge waste of time to be on this
committee. Why is that . Because its already been investigated, say democrats. Form former secretary of state Hillary Clinton testified. The question is whether democrats will join the committee. Weve participated in all the other seven investigations, if its a fair, open, and balanced process, absolutely. What we dont want to see is reckless and irresponsible use of congress and taxpayer money to do these witch hunts. No word exactly on when democrats might make a decision on whether to join that select. International intelligence and military advisers are now arriving in nigeria to help with the search for hundreds of missing school girls. The terror group behind those kipgs remains active in the region as we know from this past week. Boko haram is the groups name reportedly launching a series of new attacks, kidnapping a family
and toiching torching a key bridge so they wouldnt be followed. Nigerian police clashing with protesters demanding their return. The nigerian police, they are here to stop us from gathering, peaceful assembly. We have Constitutional Rights to assemble here. We will continue to agitate, protest, ask questions until these girls come back. Live from the west coast following this, this past week, we learn some details how the United States is going to get involved in this. Whats the latest . Reporter well we do know the states have sent a team across. They have been joined by the british and french who have sent experts to work out how precisely the west can be involved to assist the nigerian
government. Here in the United States, weve seen incredible demonstrates outside the nigerian diplomatic missions. They want to see action from the u. S. Government in helping the nigerians who are completely overwhelmed in this. But the question remains just what extent u. S. Involvement could be. Listen. Were going to bring to bear every asset we can possibly use to help nigerian government. I think you look at everything, but theres no intention at this point to be putting any american boots on the ground. In nigeria, today, we hear from military experts that the militants that kidnapped the girls have laid land mines in nigerias jungles in anticipation of Foreign Special forces could actually move in and try and take them out and rescue the girls. No one is entirely sure what kind of operation could eventually happen. But clearly there was a will by the west to do something there. Thats going to be worked out in the next few days, and i think we will hear that its probably going to be the british and french troops that get sent in for this kind of mission because theres just no tolerance for the u. S. Troops to be involved in anything. As youve reported, and we keep reading, theres so much urgency with this because we know the leader of that group says he wants to sell these children so they are trying to move very quickly. Thank you very much. Right now, and this is something weve been watching this afternoon, and so now as the heating has happened across the country, the late hours in the midwest, it has come to happen, we are seeing some severe storms in our nations midsection and reports of tornadoes touching down.

Last month, the national trapgs safety board actually recommended stricter regulations. Citing, there have been 114 deaths since 1964, but lately a lot of recurring issues and deficiencies in the system. They believe that the faa should regulate the balloon industry just as strictly as they do the plane and helicopter industry.

Shes from michigan, and was outraged when they found out her sons school took away his lunch all because of an outstanding cafeteria balance of under 5.
