>> john: fox news alert and doctors have diagnosed king charles iii with a form of cancer. buckingham palace just made that announcement in the last hour, calling it a "separate issue of concern that came up during the king's recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement." with that, welcome back to hour two, john roberts in washington. a lot we don't know about this. >> sandra: good to be with you, sandra smith in new york. the palace says the king will be postponing-public facing duties as treatment is underway. evening falls there, the statement just out from the palace, what else are we learning so far, greg? >> yeah, just in the past hour we get the news and you can imagine the u.k. is riveted to this breaking information about their king, king charles, diagnosed with a form of cancer. we are told that he is being treated as an outpatient at a clinic in the center of london.

he was there today, he left his country home for treatment today. he is now said to be at home. this came after treatment last month of his enlarged prostate. the condition was spotted, spotted swiftly, we don't know what kind of cancer it is, buckingham palace says it's not prostate cancer. in his statement quoting aides, they say the king is very positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to public duties as soon as possible. before this announcement was made his family was notified personally by the king. prince william, prince harry, we are told, personally notified, as well as his siblings. princess anne, prince andrew, and yes, the word is this is serious enough about prince harry is leaving his home in california and he's flying here maybe as early as today to be by the side of his father. again, stepping in for his

public duties will be, and i think it's important to note, the queen, his wife, camilla, she is not taking a pause from her duties, at least not yet, and prince william, of course, princess kate had been hospitalized for abdominal surgery last month, she is recovering at home. prince william has been out of the public eye and he was saying he is going to get back into the mix starting on wednesday and there's no sign that that has been changed. we are also hearing from politicians, of course, this is the head of state, king charles, diagnosed with cancer so you can imagine the political leaders of this country, u.k. prime minister rishi sunak and the head of the opposition here, the labor party, all wishing very speedy recovery for the king. it's been nine months since the coronation, he is fresh in the job, 75 years old, and of course

this news is gathering a lot of attention. concern for sure but some reassurance from buckingham palace and quite a lot of transparency by the standards of the royals, sandra. >> sandra: ok, greg palkot, thank you very much. >> john: let's bring in jonathan, british broadcaster and royal commentator. thank you so much for being with us. so, aring what we are dealing with information here, we do know that the king has a form of cancer, don't know what that form of cancer is, what we also know it was found, according to the palace, as a result of the prostate procedure that he was in for, which would be suggestive that it was incidentally discovered, maybe by scans, we don't know, possibly leads to the idea that it was caught at a very early stage. he didn't have any symptoms from it, which may make it more treatable. so speak to that if you would, and then what's the general mood

there in the u.k. as a result of this? >> the announcement that the king has been diagnosed with cancer has come as a bit of a shock because as you say, he was already being treated for an enlarged prostate. they have been very careful to say that that's not the cancer that he's been diagnosed with now, it's not prostate cancer, the palace says. they have not revealed what kind of cancer he has, but it's believed because of the tests he was having in relation to that treatment they discovered this other cancer and he's now starting routine treatment for it. it's notable they have announced it. this is the first i can remember a monarch announced as having cancer. his mother had cancer, queen elizabeth ii for some years, unannounced, unofficial, people did not about it, she had bone marrow cancer, only revealed

quite some time after her death by the man writing about it in his book. and indeed, george vi, his grandfather died of cancer but back then it was not spoken about. so i think the palace is trying to set an example that cancer is something people talk about more, a number of reasons, perhaps less superstitious about illnesses, but also cancer has a variety of different outlooks now, depending on which cancer someone suffers from and how early on it can be caught. you can be sure he'll be receiving the best possible treatment as the monarch and perhaps if it's diagnosed early, perhaps if it's diagnosed as a result of tests he was having rather than symptoms, it might mean that it's been caught early enough and if it's a kind of cancer that reacts well to treatment, it might be that he can undergo some treatment of even a very modern variety and that that will see him recover relatively quickly and fully. but we just tonight know at the

moment. so far all we have been told is that it is cancer, that it's not prostate cancer, and that he is receiving routine treatment as an outpatient in the hospital. >> sandra: jonathan, so many people see the story happening and have stories like this in their own lives with their loved ones, friends, family, and you just stop and you see this news and you just acknowledge cancer is just awful and it touches all of our lives in some way because it is just so prevalent and we hope, we hope, based on the information we have been given so far, that because of how this was caught, because of his separate issue that he was having, that this issue was noted, that hopefully they caught it early. we now know, jonathan, that the king's son, prince harry will be flying in from california to be by his father's side as he begins his battle with cancer. i want to point out, jonathan, we just found these pictures of yesterday when he was leaving the london clinic, the church there, this was just yesterday

waving to the cameras. there was a crowd there as described in daily mail where the pictures were posted. and jonathan, frankly looking pretty good, along with his wife camilla. >> that's right. sandra, you can see when he was there yesterday, he went to church, to the mary magdalene church and seemed to be looking pretty good, pretty independent. so while he is 75 years old, he's been at least in appearance very healthy and extremely active since he took over as the ma -- monarch. we know from our own lives when relatives are diagnosed with cancer, depends what kind of cancer he's suffering from, it can have different outlooks, depending on your age, how early the cancer can be caught, those factors. so those photographs show he was

looking pretty fit, we knew he had been in the hospital for that enlarged prostate and receiving treatment for that, he seemed to be active and getting on with his life, and so if, as a result of the tests that he would have been having in conjunction with that treatment they have managed to catch this cancer early on, his return back to london and his commencement of treatment immediately, they said, as an outpatient, could be a positive. we just don't know. and what i think we do see here is that in his openness, not just to his family but to the nation, he's perhaps trying to set an example people should be seen, receive treatment, think of cancer differently in 2024 than they might once have done, it's something that people have not had relatives diagnosed with cancer or been themselves through that, many people don't

realize cancer describes a huge variety of different conditions, depending on which kind of cancer and where in the body it is. so all of this i think is perhaps an educational moment for the nation and the world, lit up notifications like this one about one of the most famous people on the planet now diagnosed as having cancer. and also said he told his family, he told his siblings and he told his sons and as you say, prince harry is apparently going to return to the united kingdom in the coming days to see his father, again, something that is quite normal i think when somebody realizes or finds out that their father has been diagnosed, it's only natural he might want to come back to the u.k. and opportunities reconciliation between the two, but of course relations have been frosty and prince william, his other son, the heir to the throne is also going perhaps to step up the responsibilities that he shoulders because with

the king out of commission at least for public duties, we are told he will carry on with his behind the scenes duties but public facing duties will be paused. we may see prince william stepping up to the plate doing more, of course it's very -- it's too much speculation and too early to talk about the king's possible demise, but cancer can be fatal in some cases and that, of course, would see prince william take over as king in due course. we hope that will be something far off and the king will make a good and full recovery from this cancer that he's been diagnosed with now. to that end, we will see, i think, prince william taking on responsibilities now, even though his own wife, princess catherine, the princess of wales had been in hospital herself, undergoing treatment of abdominal surgery, have not been given a large amount of information about her status and what she was treated for, but a lot of ill health spoken about publicly in the royal family and

i think that's something that's got people concerned in the u.k., as of course there are provisions for how the monarchy runs, even when a monarch is unwell or unable to carry out his duties. so, there is a line of people, counselors of state appointed to act in his majesty's place and by law, counselors of state include the sovereign spouse and the next four people in line of succession over the age of 21. so there are provisions in place should there need to be someone else taking on the responsibilities. and counselors of state are authorized to carry out most of the official duties of the sovereign. >> john: we'll be watching for that in the days and weeks ahead. it's a shame that it took a diagnosis of cancer to bring harry and his father back together, but at least they are coming together, and maybe a chance for some sort of reconciliation. jonathan, thank you for joining

us. appreciate it. >> sandra: joining us now, steve hilton, live on set in new york. great to have you here. i feel we will always have windsor. you and i were there and covered harry and megan's wedding together. >> happy times then. >> sandra: beautiful to see the way the country came together in that moment. did they really support the royal family and they loved charles, they loved charles. i imagine this is hitting hard tonight as they learn this news. >> it's just awful, awful on a human level. so many people can relate to this, it happens in their families. it just happened in my family, a close relative. on that level, everyone has the sense of empathy. it's a very human thing but one of the most amazing things in the last year or so since he's been king, a year and a half, is that he has actually contrary to a lot of the speculation, when the queen is gone, the royal family will crumble and support for the monarchy -- that did not happen at all. real support for him, love for

him, actually, a real achievement stepping into the shoes so hard to fill. it's a real shock. i think in a practical sense as we were just hearing, it won't make that much difference. it doesn't -- there's no direct role in government. it's true other members of the royal family will have to step up. but the thing i've been thinking about is terrible luck for charles, actually, if you think about him, he's a really deep and original thinker. all his life, he's been preparing for this. >> sandra: for this moment. >> and not just being there as the monarch and creating the stability, which is part of the role but bringing some changes. he thinks deeply about issues. of course he does not have direct political power, but he definitely wanted to change things, influence things, and here he is just gotten the role after all these years and now another setback, and i think again on a human level, you've got to have sympathy for him in that respect. >> john: you know, it's

interesting, steve, that it seems to me that we have learned more about the health of the royal family in the last month than we did in the previous seven decades. what has led to this new transparency, do you think? >> well, that is part of his mission, actually. he has been thinking for many, many years about the modernization of the monarchy. he takes it very seriously. been thinking about it before he became king charles and this is one example of that. right from the beginning he let the cameras in to the beginning of the audiences with the prime minister. that had never happened before. and he's been more transparent generally. and also focused on bringing the royal family up to date in terms of how it's run, slimming down the monarchy, you are not going have all the hangers on and don't do much but get paid by the taxpayer. in all sorts of ways a leader --

queen elizabeth, she called the royal family the firm and the new ceo he has been modernizing its practices. and so this is part of that process, i think. >> sandra: you knows what's really interesting, what was the last time we heard them speak. we so often see them photographed in the public and work events, don't often hear the king speak. there was this speech to parliament, there was also this, his christmas message, and to your point about him really caring and wanting -- wanting to bring about real change, his christmas message,. >> my heart and my thanks go to all who are serving one another. all who are caring for our common home. and all who see and seek the good of others, not least the friend we do not yet know. >> sandra: it was a beautiful message, i remember that, on

christmas day, steve. and this also is a photograph we have been showing it for the past few minutes of him just yesterday and just my own analysis, looking pretty good, 75 years old, having just received this diagnosis, smiling and waving to all who arrived there to support him. >> he's a resilient person, and family, you can't not be and think about everything he's been through in his life with diana and camilla and all of that, right, and here he is, and seeming very, very comfortable in this role. by the way, the message in that christmas broadcast that you just showed wasn't just the words. even the tree, the -- the ornaments on the tree, i think all renewable organic materials, hand made stuff, making a point about not using so much plastic. look, a lot of people roll their eyes at some of the stuff charles has been going on about over the years but actually he's been talking about these things

for years before anyone else was, and you can agree or disagree, but someone who does not just want to be a passive occupant of the throne. he wants to actually use it for good. >> john: so more reaction from british officials and former officials, former u.k. prime minister boris johnson saying on x, the whole country will be rooting for the king today. best wishes to charles iii for a full and speedy recovery. liz truss says he will be in our thoughts and prayers, god save the king. steve, you work so closely with david cameron, the workings of government and buckingham palace, when you take into totality what we know about this, this cancer was apparently caught as a result of his recent procedure for prostate enlargement, the fact he's on chemotherapy, the fact he's told to avoid -- well, we don't know if it's chemotherapy, might be immunotherapy, radiation, some

sort of treatment that is shy of surgery, told not to do any public events and that harry is flying over. when you put all that together, what does it say to you? >> it does sound more serious than anybody -- sort of breezy statement we got from them in the last week or so about this procedure. and i think that's why the level of reaction and concern feels actually genuinely appropriate. because we don't know. and there could be something serious here. we don't know yet and i can imagine they are taking their time to really get comfortable with how much transparency they really want in this situation. it doesn't affect government in the day-to-day. it doesn't affect politics in the day-to-day. what it does do is actually bring the country together and that's no bad thing in these times of massive division and instability in all sorts of ways and reminder a reason the

british like their monarchy, because actually, it does provide this focus for humanity and empathy in times like this. the i don't know, we just have to wait and see more information as to, you know, what really is the seriousness and how long it's going to go. >> sandra: a lot of people are reading into the fact that prince harry is now returning, royal editor is weighing in believes she think it indicates the seriousness of the diagnosis. could you stick arounds, steve? >> of course. >> john: we'll take a short break. we'll be back with more on this. stay with us. we come from a long line of cowboys.

>> john: we are back with more coverage of the diagnosis of king charles iii with cancer. let's bring back steve hilton who is with us.

president biden has weighed in on this saying he is concerned about king charles' diagnosis, we'll call him later, i don't know if that means today or tomorrow, it's already about 8:00 in the u.k. you know, there seems to be a lot of conflicting signals going on here as to how serious this might be. again, you've lived on the inside of the hallowed halls there. how do you -- how do you look at what seems to be almost contradictory information and posture coming out of buckingham palace and other things we are seeing around the world? >> john, since we last spoke, i've had a chance to read the statement in full and it does raise some questions. they talk about transparency, but exactly as you say, there's conflicting signals in there. they emphasize obviously the previous procedure was benign and then they talk about a form of cancer and they are not specific about what it is, and

then immediately the treatment begins and so on. and actually because of all these things put together, and i think there will be a sense of wait, this looks more serious than they are letting on and that does fight against this notion of transparency they have been, you know, quite rightly trying to emphasize. so i don't think they can leave it that much longer without being a bit more specific. what is this form of cancer, they are the ones after all who said we are trying to be transparent in order to help educate the public about these matters and so on, and that's always, of course, a good i think this. okay, well, i think they need to do more in that case. you can understand this is a shock on a human level as we have been saying, but now i think there is a requirement to be more specific and they can't wait that long before doing so, i think. >> sandra: a journalist who was with us earlier how fast things have changed for the royal family, having lost the queen

and then the king -- sorry, prince philip, i should say, and william and kate are awesome, but he's taking care of her after the abdominal surgery. >> which they have not been specific about that at all. >> john: harry and megan are out in california and he's flying -- so the daily mail in life coverage and updates on this is saying prince william will now shoulder more responsibility than ever. he has recently postponed his royal engagements to be by his wife's side, now you have this announcement about the king. and it just sort of highlights that william will be stepping more and more into a growing role as all this happens. >> go back a few years, there was a lot of discussion in the u.k. about would it be right to skip a generation, that was the phrase that a lot of people used. well, look, when the time comes for a new monarch, should we just pass over charles and go

straight to william. obviously that does not work at all in the historic and traditional way the monarchy words and that's not how they think. it's a job for life and you inherit it and that's the way it works. however, that was the public conversation among a lot of people. and now you will see a little bit of that happening as william, we don't know how long it's for. in the statement they talk about getting back to duties, you know, very son. well, that does not feel as if -- does not feel as if we are going to see that when you've got this indication that prince william will take on a lot of responsibility. so much quicker than anybody imagined moving to a situation you saw toward the end of queen elizabeth's reign, then prince charles stepped in and took on her responsibilities as she was becoming more and more trail. for example, one of the main ones, the state opening of

parliament. prince charles actually took that over for i can't remember how many occasions and that was a really big signal there is going to be a changing of the guard, as it were. we'll see how long this lasts, but it's interesting that it's happening so quickly into his reign. >> sandra: really interesting and by the way, camilla has been president of a major cancer organization, maggy's cancer support since 2008, they are speaking out and saying they are very sorry about the diagnosis and saying we have centers across the country, please reach out. so speaks to their point about awareness and really raising that as the king makes this announcement to the world. we are going to have continued reaction. we'll be right back. everyone say space pod!

axios reporting it could include troubling details and even photos showing how he actually stored those documents. as his aides fear it could affect his re-election campaign. alexandria hoff is live in washington with more on this. what are biden associates saying about this? >> well, sandra, they realize certain aspects of the report could be uncomfortable, another word using when speaking with fox news could be embarrassing. the final report is likely to be lengthy, detailed, what kind of materials president biden had, where they were stored and under what condition. remember, it was back in 2022 when obama-era documents were discovered in the garage of the president's wilmington home. soon after that, he stated that the materials were secure because they were with his corvette. >> by the way, my corvette's in a locked garage, okay, it's not like they are sitting on the street.

people i know take classified documents and materials seriously. >> according to axios, biden's aides are concerned about photos are included in the report it could hurt the president's re-election campaign, could prompt former president trump to draw equivalent with his own case. biden is not expected to be charged, biden associates say it is because he has returned the materials and they believe the probe is complete, written report at the final stages. first to get turned over to attorney general merrick garland to decide how much to release. sandra. >> sandra: thank you so much. john. >> who is your running mate? >> i have a lot of good people. i have a lot of good ideas. >> john: who does donald trump

have in mind as his running mate in 2024. kellyanne conway joins us coming up next on who he should be considering.

>> sandra: fox news alert, we are alerting you to this live scene here, this is new york police department here in new york city where we are told there is going to be an nypd news conference this after the migrant bust just last week. there is a migrant bust overnight, a crackdown on burglaries related to migrants here in the city. but obviously after this attack, january 27th just last week in new york city where migrants beat up those cops and obviously there's a lot of outrage over nyc laws that allowed the

migrants to then flee after their arrest and we may be getting an update on that in this presser, we don't exactly know what it's going to pertain so. so we will listen for that. john. >> john: looking ahead to that. meantime, former president trump fielding speculation of a vice president pick after name dropping some high profile republican figures over the weekend. our next guest has a few suggestions for her former boss as she did back in 2016, writing in a "new york times" opinion piece out today. kellyanne conway, former senior adviser to president trump and fox news contributor. what you wrote in part in your "new york times" op-ed, you said politics is the art of addition, not subtraction, let alone distraction. a qualified running mate who attracts rather than alienates core constituents, is ready to lead on day one and his or her way in front of a tv camera without becoming the headline preferred. so who fits that bill? >> well, many people. i think president trump has a

lot of runway when it comes to choosing his running mate. he is probably the nominee for a challenger the earliest that we have had ever or in quite a while and he has an embarrassment of riches and speaking of rich embarrassments, no one seems less popular than kamala harris. so joe biden is stuck with her, nbc news poll devastating too biden over the weekend even more devastating to kamala harris. she seems less popular than anyone. i feel almost anyone that president trump is considering and would consider as a serious running mate can absolutely beat kamala harris in a debate and show america that life with trump before policy prescriptions, before the covid pandemic and with his new running mate would be much better than biden-harris. on foreign poll at this chaos, secretary mike pompeo, marco rubio, tom cotton. i think tim scott checks a lot of the boxes, somebody who

dropped out of the race and is actively campaigning for president trump but who will eat into this notion that the democrats have a lock on african americans, hispanic americans, asian americans, union households. tim scott -- senator scott is very articulate with abortion, able to explain how the other side is extreme and what it means to be pro life in 2024. and this pick a woman theory, i think all the women i mentioned are friends and allies of mine and he can go young and experienced, accomplished like katie brit, senator from alabama, sarah huckabee sanders, elise stefanik i think is actively auditioning for the role of v.p., number three, number four in the house and joni ernst or marsha blackburn, governor kristi noem. >> john: he mentioned kristi over the weekend as one of the

people that potentially he could pick, saying she's been a terrific ally of his, she acknowledged she could not beat him in an election, although ally would say they never want to run against the person to be president, and i'm hearing mr. trump do as mr. biden did four years earlier and pick a woman as his running mate. mr. biden and country suffer daily the consequences of embracing identity politics. people think woman against woman for vice president would be a great way for the president to offset that potential advantage the democrats have, and set up 2028 naturally if he wins the presidency to have the first woman president and be a republican. >> two things there, john. like i said, all the women i've mentioned in the piece and beyond are very capable would do a better job than biden or harris, no question. but the pick a woman theory i

think is limited. donald trump in 2016, when i was his campaign manager, he beat the queen bee herself. hillary clinton was about to be the first woman president of the united states of america and we beat her while a majority of the voters were women. not unlike eight years earlier, barack obama beat mitt romney, so that people vote according to race or gender or economic status or household, conservatives need to stand against that and women don't vote on their gender so much as their values. women have been electing our presidents since 1964, so plenty of republican presidents during that. if i were given the president race right now, i would tell president trump to pick a person of color, so rubio, scott, byron

donalds, from the naples area of florida on tv, a big favorite in the house and the trump world insider favorite right now in president trump's ear about him is dr. ben carson. former world renowned neurosurgeon and trump opponent in 2016 and member of the cabinet. vivek ramaswamy, i don't think you would take two outsiders but this is donald trump, he'll keep us guessing and his short list will be very long. >> john: you suggested mike pence to him and helped him with evangelicals. >> that is true. >> john: kellyanne, always great to spend time with you. thank you. >> you think you could give me an orange at that guy's stand? he's selling oranges right there. or something to eat? >> sandra: last week we introduced you to jimmy darts, ok. he said he was not gonna leave new york city after he joined us

>> sandra: so you remember on friday we introduced you to jimmy darts, the social media star who looks for people to help and surprises them with rewards. jimmy is here live to tell us

how the weekend actually turned out. i know you headed up to the bronx, jimmy. welcome back. >> thanks for having me. it was amazing, my goal was to come to the bronx and not leave 'til i was able to change someone's life. and the first two days i was there, i was shocked, like my life is getting changed. for example, the first american i blessed, i went to a restaurant and they gave me free food and i gave the restaurant owner $500 and gives it to his employees, none for himself. i'm like that's incredible and after that, i met another lady missing a leg and she had diabetes had it amputated and i wanted to raise money to get you a new leg, and she said no, i couldn't be happier, i'm fine in the wheelchair, and yesterday night i met this man named george in his 70s. >> sandra: he's on the screen now. >> i asked for some food because i was hungry, he didn't have any money but he gave me a block of cheese he just bought and sure

enough i told him i did not need the help, gave him $500 and got to hear his story, and he was about to be evicted, so rent prices went up, so followers donated over $32,000 for him, so basically a year of free rent. >> john: that's incredible, jimmy, up to almost $33,000 at this point. it's interesting, your gig is, you will ask somebody for help and if you help them you reward them back and do something to really change their life. we put together a bit of the video you shot with george in the bronx, just watch how this unfolds. >> do you think you could give me an orange at that guy's stand? he's selling oranges right there or something to eat? you sure? >> yes. >> thank you so much. what's the hardest thing you've been through recently? >> recently? to be evicted. >> hold this. >> that's for you. >> no, trust me, $500 for you.

>> you sure? >> yes. >> look -- >> i was just seeing if you would help me out. >> you want to buy a jacket? >> john: first looked at you like i'm not sure if i want to help you out and then gives you a block of cheese, looked like he did not have a lot of money himself, you met someone willing to be a good samaritan to you and you reward them back. >> he was amazing, i met up with him this morning to tell him how much i raised, and i said george, i have a surprise for you, and he bought me coffee and a photo, here, take this home, a present to your girlfriend, an awesome, kind guy. that's some of the things you will find is people with the least a lot of times want to give the most, and you'll be surprised at what people are really going through when you hear their stories and more than anything, the spotlight shouldn't be on me, it should be on my followers, they are the ones who donated to raise the
