department. good evening, david. >> bret, good evening to you. a disturbing story. fbi agents arrested this 18-year-old student one day before they say he planned to attack more than 20 churches killing as many people as possible. the plan was thwarted as you say the attack never happened and tonight he is sitting in a jail cell. his name is alexander mercurio. he is 18 years old. we have his mugshot from the local sheriff's office in idaho. authorities say that he had other weapons, including knives, fire to kill people in or around core da lane, idaho. he planned this attack for apri.

different cases with people living in the united states expressing some support or help to isis. that's just since the beginning of 2023. bret? >> bret: david spunt at the justice department. thank you. the arizona supreme court ruled today that the state could enforce an 1864 law that criminalizes nearly all abortions in the state of arizona. the biden team waste nothing time pointing to former president donald trump's position that abortion laws should be left to the states. the issue of abortion front and center, at least this week in the 2024 campaign. white house correspondent jacqui

heinrich has details tonight live from the north lawn. good evening, jacqui. >> good evening, bret. another thing that popped up today. some comments by the president. the white house did not say whether biden really thinks that republicans are trying to kill americans by undoing the affordable care act. set an interpretation of his words in that way was extreme. can you listen to yourself to what he said. in the meantime, the white house is trying to keep the focucus where they think it will help biden's re-election the most. and this is on abortion. >> they want my view is now thae abortion where everybody wanted it from a legal standpoint. >> biden wrote is he worried since he is the one responsible for overturning roe the voters will hold him accountable in

2024. >> well, i have news for donald, they will. but the president has been silent on another big issue. extremist protesters chanting death to america, death to israel. in dearborn, michigan, friday. >> does the president condemn that? >> yes. >> should we expect to hear from the president on that though? this was a pretty significant display. >> you are hearing from me. i think that's important. >> in february, it took only two days for biden to denounce a "wall street journal" op-ed calling dearborn america's jihad capital. the editorial reported to several imams denouncing america as a terrorist state and pushing to destroy israel one calling to normalize jihad.

biden tweeted at the time americans know that blaming a group of people based on the words of a small few is wrong. that is exactly what can lead to islamophobia and anti-arab hate. >> today there were families of americans still being held hostage by hamas here at the white house. they met with the vice president but not with president biden. in a readout, the white house said that harris underscored that there's no higher priority for both herself and the president in bringing those hostages secretary alejandro

divided government because that is a lie. they are giving everything over to the democrats and we will win nothing. >> other republicans have no appetite to endure more bed lamb after last year's debacle with former house speaker kevin mccarthy. >> i don't think what marjorie is doing right now is helpful and not helping us with our majority. >> members are exasperated infighting over how republicans run their own house. >> i think right now what you're seeing is inflection point for the institution. >> i'm not comfortable with how this institution is structured. >> former congressman ken buck resigned early two weeks ago. he is suspicious about the motives of his now former colleagues. >> a lot of them are here because they got here by throwing bombs and they are going to stay by throwing bombs. >> republican mike gallagher follows buck out the door next week. >> it's getting harder to get stuff done. you see a lot of members frustrated with that. >> richard hudson leads the g.o.p. election arm. he says more democrats are you can retiring than republicans. >> we have a lot of single retirement in a competitive seat whereas the democrats have more retirements than we do and seven of their retirements are in seats that we're going to now pick up. >> some g.o.p. members want

johnson to stare down the so-called chaos caucus and forge ahead on a bill to aid israel and ukraine. bret? >> bret: chad pergram live on the hill, thanks. more than 50 people were arrested today after their anti-israel protest shut down the u.s. senate cafeteria as you look at this video. demonstrators walking through the hallways saying children are starving in gaza. people are dieing in gaza. capitol police say they were all charged with crowding and obstructing congress. >> isis surged their attacks in iraq and syria earlier this year. risk of attack increasing. i assess isis core son retains the capability and will to attack u.s. and western interests abroad in as little as six months with little to no warning. >> bret: there is growing concern tonight about the renewed threat from the isis terror network as the middle east is a powder keg over the israel-hamas war and russia continues its bombardment of ukraine. let's bring in fox news senior strategic analyst retired general jack keane. general, thanks for being here. that first story we talked about is somebody that was inspired, the fbi believes, by isis. but we are seeing isis on the move. and centcom put out these stats saying just from january through march of '24, in iraq and syria, you have got 2400 isis fighters, they believe, at large. 18 were killed. 63 detained. there were 94 specific missions conducted. we don't hear a lot about it.

but it is still real. that terrorist threat. >> there is no doubt about it. i mean, two presidents are v. made the same decision. and this is to keep forces in iraq and syria, 2500 in iraq. about 900 in syria. to make certain of one thing. that isis does not rise again to establish a sanctuary. the trump administration defeated that caliphate and the sanctuaries that were a part of it in iraq and syria. there has always been a concern that they can rise back. we actually have thousands of isis fighters in detention in syria. pulled out of afghanistan. despite the warnings that isis and al-qaeda could rise again. and we had about 2500 soldiers that we wanted to keep, europeans had 7,000. they wanted the state because they thought isis could rise and threaten their home country. they have attacked deep into europe and moscow and certainly that validates their concern. so, yes, isis is a growing

menace and threat. we have got keep our forces in iraq and syria for the reasons i stated. we very a problem in afghanistan because we have no eyes and ears and not much to do anything about it. >> bret: and we obviously have concerns about who is coming over our southern border and what that looks like with all those numbers here. i want to turn to what i described as a powder keg because you have israel, hamas, and now iran, possibly hezbollah in the north, here's the nsa, national security adviser jake sullivan. >> a massive ground invasion of rafah where 1.3 or more million people are sheltering. this is not the best way forward. there are better ways to go after hamas in rafah. we presented those ways to our israeli counterparts in a session we held last week. >> bret: so there is a split here as you look at the israeli ground operations as of april 8th. they are saying they are going to go into wrath fall. rafah.removing troops in other s of gaza. there is a definite split and message from the administration to the israelis. what do you think of that?

>> well, a couple things, one, strategically, i think the administration has always been off, because they never focused on the fact that iran operationalized all of its proxies to do two things, drive the united states out of the region, and destroy the state of israel. we have never held them accountable for that and there is a lot of things we could have done. we don't need to get into all the details of that and it has always been hands off. hands off in terms of sanctions and hands off in terms of any limited military actions that discourage this behavior. second thing, the biden administration made a statement weeks ago. that if you are going to go into rafah, make certain that you take care of the people and move them out of there and make certain as humanitarian assistance israel agreed with that there is pressure on the biden administration now about a & a financial if a and they have declared that israel should not go into rafah and the implication is if they do we are going to pull some support. that is absolutely staggering that we have come to that

position and lack of moral clarity on the part of this administration is appalling. i mean, you have to come to grips with the very nature of the evil that we are fighting here. this is a force that wants to destroy israel and kill as many of its people in the process of doing it. but, they are also diabolical and sinister, bret. this is a force that protects itself and 300 miles of underground tunnels, much of it reinforced with concrete, provides no protection for any of its people whatsoever. they are aiding and abetting the loss of life. they provide their human shields, sitting on top of these tunnel complex. they want that human life to be destroyed and incentivizes the world to come down hard on israel. the administration is actually strengthening hamas' hand by doing what they're saying. they are not going to go into rafah. what's the alternative that, israel just stops and surrenders

the four and five battalions and the hamas leadership? the war ends and these guys rearm, reequip and reattack again? nobody in israel wants that kinds of an ending. >> bret: understanding the concern about civilian casualties, we do not hear the repeated message that the onus is on hamas here to release the hostages or that there are still american hostages there. we don't hear that messaging. really, day to kay. >> we don't talk about the american hostages. their name and faces should be all over the screen. and that's the reality of it. the administration doesn't want pressure put on it, you know, to do something about it. we have been really off in this thing. and the fact that we're losing the fortitude and losing the perseverance, the administration i'm talking about, to see this thing through the end, look it, it takes a bit of spine to conduct this operation in the face of the horror that we're all seeing on our tv screens.

but the end state has got to be the destruction of hamas. >> bret: meanwhile, you have got iran, you have got hezbollah, there are a lot of moving parts here in the middle east let alone what ukraine is facing and what is happening on capitol hill. we will have you back to talk about that. >> great talking to you bret, thank you. >> bret: historic sentencing of the parents of a school shooter and, later, a prominent california university under fire after a lecture from a paid activist criticizing israel. because i had two full time jobs... lawyering and... liaming. count on me, mia. i'll file your taxes for you with 100% accuracy, guaranteed. let a turbotax full-service expert do your taxes as soon as today.

roe. the biden campaign do one thing. his justices that hoped to overturn roe and democrats are absolutely going to be campaigning on this issue during the election, vice president kamala harris has already said that she is going to be going to arizona this week it's tuesday this is a bad week for republicans and the trump campaign. if you look at the reaction to his original statement. you look at florida putting six week abortion ban on the ballot in the november. and now arizona. it's not to say it's going to come to nate from here until november, but at least right now it seems front and center. >> president biden has been gaining ground in some horse race polls as well. so he has been enjoying a few good days. the problem with the position on abortion that leaves it to the states is you're saying well, i'm not for anything. it's a negative position. leave it to the states. states' rights. you have to be something for

something in politics in order have a position in order to say i'm not for what the judge has ruled in arizona. i'm for, say, a 15-week restriction with exceptions. that was what some people. >> bret: even throw congress and constitutionally challenged. >> that's what i believe and i'm willing to debate on that. and we can have the debate on those terms. instead by saying i'm for whatever the states decide. can you be tarred with whatever the states decide for or against. >> but this is also what a lot of conservatives, pro-lifers and legal scholars wanted when roe v. wade was in effects. they basically said there is no right to abortion in the constitution; therefore, it should be left to the states. the constitution proper way to handle this is to overturn roe and leave it to the states. and what they really didn't consider was in -- that was going to set off warfare in all 50 states and anybody who is running nationally would have to

comment or be held to all of these battles that are going on around the country. >> electoral politics have favored democrats so far in this -- in fox news' poll you see that most americans. >> bret: we can put that up as you are talking. >> okay. most americans are in favor of abortion rights in this country. tick that up. i don't know if there is a slide that can show among republicans in particular, you have even seen the support increase among republicans as well for abortion rights. this is an issue that democrats believe can help them turn traditionally states that either traditionally have been red or purple can help them turn them blue in the presidential race. that's something you saw trump himself essentially pointing to. >> bret: right. which is what he was trying it avoid. meantime words matter on campaigns. we saw two days of reaction to the word bloodbath when the former president was talking about electric vehicles and what that would do to the economy. here is president biden on the affordable care act. >> my predecessor and his maga

friends -- i love the phrase the language he used. they want to terminate the affordable care act killing millions of americans and take them off of healthcare. >> did the president mean to essentially accuse republicans of murder? >> i think you are taking the most extreme -- extreme definition or extreme evaluation of what the president said. >> bret: yeah. so here is lara's trump statement rnc response no matter how he spins it joe biden has waged a war on women and families that has caused people to struggle to send kids to school retire with the same standard of living they would have expected four years ago. it is tit-for-tat, matthew. it is interesting words. >> it's one more item in the catalog of biden's statements. remember 2012 when he told the predominantly african-american audience in virginia that the republicans were going to put y'all back in chains whether it was the debate where he just said he had no involvement in hunter biden's business and hunter biden wasn't involved with china?

he will say anything to get elected. and he is going to be making more of these statements if he feels his position is threatened in what looks to be a very close toss-up election. >> bret: as i mentioned, it's tuesday. but, on capitol hill, it's also a bit of chaos. here is marjorie taylor greene possibly threatening speaker mike johnson's position. >> we're losing republican membf congress under mike johnson. he is the not the republican speaker of the house he is the democrat speaker of the house. >> seeks to remove him democrats would join in a motion to kill safe maneuver because he should not be punished for doing the right thing. >> bret: okay. so all of this is pending. as you look at the split in the house. it's a very thin majority. and actually getting thinner, byron. to be honest, if they had a motion to vacate. in other words, kicking the house speaker out, and there weren't enough people on the

floor, you could end up with a situation where hakeem jeffries might have more people on the floor voting for him. >> yes, you could. republicans down to 218. that's before mike gallagher leaves. is he going to go some time pretty soon. the fundamental problem is it shows the absolute insanity of agreeing to allow one member a motion to vacate. they could then be joined by a small number of people and actually take out a speaker. that's not theoretical. that's what they did to kevin mccarthy. now you saw a democrat say well, our price to keep mike johnson in office would be if he brings up ukraine aid for a vote. so, if democrats keep a republican speaker in office. there's gonna be a price. >> here is former speaker mccarthy on that ukraine funding. there is republican support for that but, take a listen to his advice. >> you are the majority. you are the speaker. you are the republican majority in the house. i wouldn't sit down with the

other three leaders. why elevate the democratic leader to being speaker? go directly in with the president and negotiate. that's a stronger hand. use the strength of the majority to get it. so don't sit back and say what can i do? be the majority and sit back and say this is what we're going to do. >> bret: so we will see what is going to happen up on the hill. but there's a lot of moving parts. panel, thanks. ♪ >> bret: first up sarah asks what's your favorite part of your job? do you know what's great about it? it's different every day. never know what the day is going it bring news-wise and i work with a really great bunch of professionals. nicole wonders who do you have in the masters? is this rory's year? do you think rahm will repeat. liv and pga. start there and more golf questions. wow, you have got a list there. i like rory this year in the masters. i like dustin johnson as a dark

horse. maybe he hits it away. finally bob asks on the golf theme, what was your lowest score for 18 holes? bob, i shot a 67, long, long ago in a land far, far away but now i'm a walking wallet and i just hand money to my friends. anyway, tomorrow on "special report," our "common ground" segment features senate armed members joe manchin on the democratic side dan sullivan on the republican side, what they're working on. remember, if you can't catch us live, set your dvr 3:00 p.m. on the west coast and 6:00 p.m. in the east. fair balanced and still unafraid. "the ingraham angle" is now. >> laura: good evening, everne, i'm laura ingraham. ingraham angle from washington tonight. disturbing video of a
