Its the latest chapter in the long running and so far unsuccessful saga of g. O. P. Efforts to get rid of the last president S Health Care overhaul. We at team fox coverage, mike emanuel is on capitol hill, but chief whites correspondent chief White House Correspondent john roberts. After letting his legend laid of staff get of the initial proposal, President Trump is invested in the Senate Health care bill. He made it clear today thats not the only thing he wants to change. In his first facetoface encounter with newly elected south korean president moon jaein, hes not comfortable with the deal. You know who signed it. You know who wanted it. Our trade deficit with south korea has increased by more than 11 billion. Not exactly a great deal. Its unclear who President Trump was blaming for the deal. While it went in effect under the Obama Administration in 2012, it was negotiated and signed during the bush administration. Either way, the white house announced the deal would be being negotiated. Ambassador white house to start the reprocess of renegotiating and amending the deal. The president also upended negotiations over a Senate Health care in a nod to conservatives tweeting up in your proposal. They should immediately repeal and replace at a later date. Before taking office, President Trump insisted repeal and replace had to happen together in order to guarantee the continuity of coverage. It will be repealed and replaced. It will be essentially simultaneously. The tweet brought applause from conservative senators who say the Current Senate proposal stomach proposal doesnt go far enough to appeal the obamacare. They deny that the president has changed his thinking. We are still fully committed pushing through the senate at this point, but we are, you know, looking at every possible option of repealing and replacing obamacare. In another tweet in policy change the president announced that hes sending federal help to prime, crime plagued chicago, quote its reach such epidemic proportions that im sending in federal help. 1,714 shootings in chicago this year. President trump is sending 20 atf agents and a mobile ballistics analysis lab. They will join up with chicago pd to create a Gun Crime Task force. Attorney generals Jeff Sessions says the move is sorely needed. Politicians in chicago have not been working. Murders are way, way too high. Its critical, critical for the people of chicago, public safety, that we begin to Work Together here. After a day of wedding criticism after his tweet of morning show host mika brzezinski, trump dismissed a claim by Joe Scarborough that he offered to spike a salacious story about the couple in the national enquier. The president tweeted, a source tells fox news that Joe Scarborough called jeff kushner and to ask if there was anything that could be done about the article. The source says kushner told him you have to talk to the president about that, which scarborough replied, well, hes mad at me. To which kushner said, well, maybe you should apologize. The source, bill, there was no quid pro quo involved here. Thank you, john. John roberts from the white house and there. There is a serious question this evening whether Congressional Republicans will ever be able to agree on health care reform. The latest of many deadlines for action came and went in today without a new senate bill. Cheap Congressional Correspondent mike emanuel on the hill tonight. About everyone has gone on vacation. Mike, good evening. Bill, good evening. With no deal on how to report so far, anxiety is starting to book over the congressional calendar. Perhaps its time for plan b on addressing obamacare. Nebraska senator ben sasse is sounding the alarm, saying it Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell cannot reach a deal on health care by july 10th, its time for another option. He sent a letter to President Trump today. In it, he expressed concern that republicans will fail to pass make any meaningful bill or will past something that propped up obamacare writing, we can and must do better than either of these, both because the American People deserve better, and because we promise better. What i am recommending that we give comfort to the American People by repealing the maximum amount of obamacare we can but add a oneyear delay before that would be effective so that there is an action forcing events so we get to work. G. O. P. Leadership continues to see if it can get its original plan across the finish line. There will be various proposals, pieces submitted to the cbo to get their feedback, know what the impacts are going to be both with respect to coverages and costs and that sort of thing. Democrats continue taking aim at the g. O. P. s effort to scrap obamacare, suggesting it cannot be fixed. The idea is so backwards, so out of step with what america wants and what actually works, it can never succeed. No matter how it is tweaked. With congress out until july 10th, calendar pressure is building. Ten republican senators have signed a letter calling on leader mcconnell to cancel august recess if significant progress has not been made on fixing health care, funding the government, dealing with the debt ceiling, passing a budget resolution, and improving our tax code. They write, our Current Senate calendar shows only 33 potential working days remaining before the end of the fiscal year. This does not appear to give us time to adequately address the issues that demand immediate attention. This is not an easy process. It was never designed to be easy. But in part because its difficult, weve got an obligation to stick it out until its done. If we are not finished with all the things we mentioned. By the time august 1st hits, we have no busy public reason taking recess. We should cancel the recess altogether. That shows the growing tension as lawmakers look ahead to the possibility of facing their constituents in august with very few points on the board. Bill the halls are empty tonight, mike. As we approach the fourth of july, it appears as americans are evenly split on the question of pride in america. The latest fox news polling indicates 51 say, yes, they are proud of their country. 45 stake no. About a half of you feel the next generation will be worse off than the generation of today. 40 disagreed with it. Thats a little more pessimistic than last year, but more optimistic than three years ago. Also, this Holiday Weekend will be the first week in President Trumps immigration travel ban. Correspondent Doug Mckelway is in washingtons Dulles International airport to tell us how thats going so far. In effect for almost 24 hours now, there have been no reports of chaos or improperly detained arrivals. Law enforcement say despite being holiday crowds, protest have been near nonexistence. Yesterday, protesters chanting against what they called President Trumps unjust separation of families. And hawaiis attorney general doug chin who challenge the first travel ban to file a new motion in federal coat challenging the new one, writing that close family is many people that federal government exclude from the definition for the Trump Administration is confident that hawaiis standing is weak. Its an activist attorney general. They were slapped down by the Supreme Court, and i believe this argument will be heard, of course, and i dont think it will be sustained either. Sessions confidence is based on the ohio letter to the high court gave the administration. Its a people from the six designated countries are exempt from the band if they can show, a bona fide relationship to someone or some entity in the u. S. The state Department Took that to be a spouse, child, daughter, or a sibling in the u. S. Last night, the state department added fiance to the list. The administration is sure to come under fire under another component of the ban. Refugees face a longer with time, 120 days, than other arrivals. In terms of the refugees, some of that we do have a little bit of extra time to do that. That is until we reach the cap of 50,000. That cap is nearly reached with less than 1,000 refugee spots still available. The travel ban is coming under fire from the Worlds Largest state sponsor of terrorism, irans foreign minister saying that the ban is a shameful exhibition of blind hostility to all iranians. Bell, back to you. Bill Doug Mckelway watching that from dulles tonight. Thank you, doug. Only yesterday, the house approved two immigration bills, coming as the entire concept of statuary cities is challenged by new information for that information was seen to reject one of the foundations of the movement. National correspondent william largeness explains from los angeles. These two were shot on the same day. One died. Levi bolton represents police in phoenix, a city that rescinded its policy in 2008. We saw a decrease in crime, it had a deterrent effect on folks because the risk of discovery went up exponentially when we actually enforced the law. The house g. O. P. Force stomach helps other cities will pass suit, passing two bills, one that yields criminal aliens returning after being deported. The other withhold federal money from century cities that refused to cooperate with i. C. E. Police chiefs across the nation believe that enlisting local police to enforce Immigration Law is a bad idea. Century support his claim there cities are safer. They argue immigrants dont fear being deported, they will report more climes, crimes, police will catch more criminals making cities more safer. We depend on our communities, particularly immigrant communities to cooperate with us not to keep them safe but to keep all of you safe. But a sixyear study by the university of california, riverside, concluded, no statistically discernible across century and noncentury cities studied. When we limited our sanctuary city policy in 2008, we saw a crime, late coming violent climates and stolen vehicles dropped by 20 25 . We saw a 20 year low crime rates. Mark spencer spent 25 years as a phoenix officer patrolling the streets like this one. Starting in 2008, officers were allowed to ask all arrestees about their immigration status. And they could call i. C. E. At any time. Crime rates for murder, robbery, assault, burglary, and theft fell the next two years. When we were allowed to have the discretionary ability to contact our federal immigration partners, crime fell drasticall drastically. Speak about statistics tell only part of the story. Century City Supporters show no signs of giving up politically or in court. Theyre looking make from los angeles tonight looking to opt to break the law instead of cooperating with President Trump.
