thanks for being with us tonight. good night from new york. [♪] kennedy: the trump administration possibly on the verge of a huge immigration win. the supreme court reportedly leaning towards one of the president's signature campaign promise, a travel ban from several muslim majority countries. justice samuel alito led the liberal charge. >> i think there are 50 predominantly muslim countries in the world. five predominantly muslim countries are on this list. the population of the predominantly muslim countries

on this list make up 8% of the world's muslim population. if you look at the 10 country with the the most of muslims, exactly one, iran would be on that list of the top 10. would a reasonable observer think this was a muslim ban? kennedy: justice sotomayor questioned whether they were targeted based on their religious beliefs and does the president have the power to make such a rule. >> i see the president saying i'm going to add more to the limits congress said and to what congress said was enough. where does the president get the authority to do more than congress has already decided is adequate? kennedy: what happens next?

and who will tip the balance? joining me now, fox news' anchor shannon bream. from what you have seen and the arguments that you have witnessed, how did this play out for the president and the issues at hand? >> i would say it went pretty much as expected. there is it appears an ideological split saying the president has authority when it comes to national security. the statute says that the president can decide if people are detrimental to be admitted to the united states. he can put a block, a temporary hold on them. he has a lot of power. that answers justice sotomayor's question. justice kennedy brought up this issue of the president and the statements he made in the past about a muslim ban and blocking

muslims from coming into this country. whether those things should be factors in when you are looking at the text of the travel ban, this is the third version of it. kennedy: where are they leaning in their questions with the idea of the travel ban versus the particulars in that hawaii lawsuit? >> it's not surprising that you have folks like justice ali tee saying if this is a muslim paint's not very good because it only impacts 8% of the world's muslim population. but they did give a carve-out to the president. congress won't know six months from now we get a threat from a country and the president needs the power to block people from that country. what if he has intel from the intelligence community. for the most of part, there were

three critical comments we view as being on the left side of the bench. justice kagan who is the left side of the bench had to tough questions and had a genuine interest in whether the president could actually do these things and why it would make sense to allow him to have some of these powers. kennedy: you can't always tell how the decision will come down based on the argument before the court and the interaction between the lawyers representing each side and the justices. what is their next step in this process. walk us through that deliberation. >> this was the last case they will hear argued for the entire term. they weren't it withing a bang today. friday they will have a private conference behind closed doors. they take an initial vote about how they feel about the case. is it 5-4, 6-3, and that's where

the deliberations begin. the chief justice can in most of cases decide who writes more the minority and who writes for the majority. people start writing those opinions and say if i tweet this for you can we get your vote to come over to the side. the vote they will take friday is step number one. there is a lot of debating back and forth. as they exchange those ideas you may end up with a different vote and we get it sometime the end of june. kennedy: in that deliberation there are special relationships and things week only speculate upon and they don't have their clerks there. how could this play out when a decision is finally reached? >> i think what we have seen from this court under the leadership of justice john roberts, he likes to go as

narrow as possible. so i think they will try to make this as narrow as possible. they have put parts of the ban on hold and aloud other parts to -- and allowed other parts to proceed. the two bad decisions they got from the slower courts came from courts that are considered to be pretty liberal. people want to judge shop and forum shop where they think they will win. justice gorsuch said, i have got this problem with the single district judges, the first level of the federal court who can put out an injunction and stop an entire nationwide law. that's something we have to think about. all it takes is one judge to shut something down. that may be something justices want to address for further cases as well. kennedy: we are learning that president trump met with va

secretary nominee dr. randy jackson amid growing calls for him to step aside. jackson says he'll not withdraw his nomination to lead the va and is strongly denying the wave of misconduct allegations. some democrats, including senator jon tester say the allegations are too serious to ignore. >> the 20-some people who got ahold us and said this doctor has a problem. he hands out prescriptions like candy. in the white house they call him the candyman. kennedy: the white house says they are standing by ronny jackson. >> dr. jackson's record as a white house physician has been impeccable. because he has worked within arm's reach of three presidents,

he expressed more vetting than most of nominees, very thorough investigation and vet progress says has taken place. kennedy: can ronny jackson's nomination weather this latest batch of storms? let me go to our party panel. the author of "dear reared." and dow jones news wire's chief editor glenn hall is here. ronny jackson could be the subject of a motley crue song. they say he's dr. feel good. >> this is politics. only one hand you have a president who is prone to nominate people he's comfortable with who may be unconventional candidates. on the other hand we are in a mid-term election cycle than is

extra cute any and opportunity for democrats to poke holes in nominees. i think if these two things collide and create acontinues that may not have existed under other circumstances. kennedy: how did he make it into the white house if he has all these peck dill ohs on his -- all these on his farm. >> the democrats want to win. they want to tell president trump no. but for them to be able to turn him down and build on that and take out pompeo, this is something they can deliver back to their base. kennedy: the obstruction comes with some of the lower court judges. this one is interesting. because i think we are getting caught up in some of the details

of ronyy jackson's life that maybe should have come out much sooner. one of the biggest questions is can someone like this handle the va? >> how has someone like this with such a history apparently allegedly of drinking and crashing cars and handing out ambien and all these terrible things, how did he serve as doctor of the president of the united states for three administrations? don't you think these things would have come out? he went through four background checks. wins an fbi back ground check. we are being diewched. we don't have the right to hear what this man's policies are. we are supposed to talk about whether he has a drinking problem. it seems to me cliche'. it seems set up. this is the veterans affairs nomination. we have a bureau that needs our

help, it needs reform. i would like to hear what this man's ideas are on reform. kennedy: there are plenty of institutions within washington that could crumble and disappear overnight and you would not miss them, like the commerce department or education department. this is when the va does require. michael cohen, president trump's personal attorney will plead the fifth in the defamation case filed by storagey daniels. sources telling fox news rudy giuliani has taken oversteps with robert mueller and they are reportedly discussing a possible sit-down with president trump. should trump talk to mueller or keep his beautiful lips zipped?

>> this is complicated for the president. they have been back and forth on this issue for a while. we never heard directly from president trump other than the notion he is innocent and he wants to proclaim his innocence. i think at this point in time it's a big question about whether a new precedent is being set and the requirements are met for him to meet with the special counsel. we don't know fully what they want to ask about. so there are two sides to this one as well. i hate to say it. kennedy: giuliani is loyal to the president, he knows politics, and he knows the law. and he also knows mueller. so he can talk to him in a different way than some of the president's other personal attorneys. >> if you are talking to

somebody who has to deliver. you can talk your way into an arrest and not talk your way out of it. i don't see how this will help trump in any way. kennedy: is giuliani the savior here? >> i don't know there will be a savior other than the elections. >> i think it's good news he's on the team. he's a credible politician. he's a credible lawyer. he says he holds him in high regard. he has the possibility to be the mediator. but the intentions in the meeting were to find out why trump had the meetings he had. and it's necessary. if you are going to get rid of the charges of collusion, collusion is not a crime. you want to show what your intent was when you had those meetings. and do they under lie different

criminal elements of another crime. what giuliani wants to do is say no, these are i innocuous. kennedy: narrow your coach. tell us what you want to know. tell us your timeline. but i think parameters for both sides -- it's too owned. there is too much money. there is no time of line. and mueller can do what he wants. >> the danger giuliani needs to constrain is what is mueller fishing for. what dose want to get the president to talk about that may not be known at this time. so those are limitations in terms of the investigative scope. kennedy: rosenstein can drive him to the sporting goods store. kennedy: michael malice, that's a good point. first you have, the president

attacking nationalism and decrying climate change. one freedom-ing loving lawmaker is calling emmanuel macron a socialist militarist science aharmist. that lawmaker is here. stay put.

kennedy: french president emmanuel macron took time out from his bromance to addressing congress. >> with business leaders let us work together to make our planet great again and create new jobs and new possibilities. one regarding our earth, and i'm sure one day the united states will come back and joint paris agreement. kennedy: he sounds like a french kermit. not everyone in congress was applauding macron's speech including my next guest.

i wish he wouldn't hold back so much. welcome back, congressman massie. >> his speech started out just fine. he referenced benjamin franklin and thomas jefferson. but then he started referencing fdr. kennedy: he sound like bernie sanders when he talks about fdr-type programs. let's start -- he pretty much is a socialist. he's very proud of that. he's like a french justin trudeau. >> he has his own brand of socialism and people are acting like he's a member of the freedom caucus. let's get real. he's the president of a

socialist country. they are lucky to work 20 hours a week. and he came to preach to us about our method of government. let's go on to the globalism. kennedy, you were at the rnc convention in cleveland when the president called out the world trade organization. in his speech. in his acceptance speech for the republican nomination. here you had somebody putting the world trade organization on a pedestal in congress, the french president. he's all for globalization. then militarism. he took credit just a few days ago for convincing trump to stay in syria. we don't belong in syria and neither does france, frankly. kennedy: preach together choir. i'm sure there are members of

the press and french citizens who feel the way you do. i hear his approval ratings in france are lower than our president's. >> the other aspect of my tweet is the science alarmist aspect. he said let's make the planet great again. frankly the planet has never been greater than it is now. he's talking about make sure it's habitable in 15 years. i'm sick of the faux outrage from liberals about the environment. they are not practicing it themselves one iota. kennedy: should we be measuring everybody's body mass in

congress. like the last few nights we talked about otherring. we talked about the idea if somebody doesn't hold your set of beliefs, you don't engage them about why they believe the way they believe. you make sure you demonize them and make sure they know what they did is wrong and should be punished for that. that's the group think when it comes to climate change which has abandoned science. >> photosynthesis depend on carbon dioxide. if co2 levels go to zero, everything dies. if co2 goes to zero. they are being an alarmist by talking about co2 levels when co2 is not a pollutant.

it fuels everything on my farm in kentucky. there would be global examine if familiar -- global famine if we could cut co2 levels in half tomorrow. i went to m.i.t. i love it when people tell me i don't understand science. the politicians have liberal arts degrees. kennedy: don't you knock philosophy. there would nobody science without aristotle. >> i guess if science happens and nobody is there to witness it, did it really happen. kennedy: we are going to die probably from something you did on your bourbon farm. >> it was egg i could do not to walk out on this speech toward the second half of it it was a

complete repiewd yaiftion our president, president trump who showed him so much hospitality. he comes to congress. i always heard the french word rude. but i never encountered that myself. but this is the rudest frenchman i have ever seen to talk about our president's policies that way and our policies here in the chamber of commerce the way he did. kennedy: you stood up for yourself, freedom and the nation on social media. thank you for that. coming up, former senate majority leader harry reid wants democrats to shut up about impeachment. i'll explain why republicans may want them to force the issue in my monologue. kanye west doubling down in his support of president trump. and criticizing former president obama.

kennedy: institutional democrats have not glommed on to impeachment because they know it ultimately would be bad for the country and good for the president. reid went on to say in that nbc under view that the president is not a nice man. maxine waters complains he's a dishonorable liar. but those things are not impeachable offenses and leisure time reid knows it. if the democratically controlled house launches impeachment. as long as the economy keeps ticking up, the market is stabilized, impeachment would be a mere footnote as the lewinsky scandal has been for former

president clinton. and it would pave the way for the election. republicans will capitalize on any formal premid-term impeachment push. and the chasm inside the democratic party could swallow their mid-term chances. oh, well, harry, don't beat yourself up over it. [♪] so is this impeachment push a suicide evident by democrats? brook, i will start with you. tom steier is pouring tens of millions of dollars into impeachment and town halls and

litmus tests for democrats running for reelection and it's creating a split in the party. >> it's hurting the democratic party. americans are weary of hearing it over and over again. the ads tom steier is funding, telling us he's destroying the country, we are on the brink of war, impeach. how can you take them seriou sey when that's all that we hear. and there is no evidence of what they are charging. the calls almost for violence. democrats want moderate. kennedy: good candidates win regardless of parties. let's discuss the chaos and how

in your estimation that might be good for the country. >> i think it's hilarious after the trump election everybody has gone insane. and people like maxine waters is doing egg she can to make mike pence president. they would never have the votes in the senate to remove him from office to begin with. and then the what they should remember is that in 2000 hillary got to the senate by the sympathy over the impeachment. kennedy: history has looked on bill clinton fondly. for years seeing it through two, two-term presidents, he was seen as a legend.

>> putting that aside there are a high bar of impeachment. it's always political. it always starts in the house where the majority is stronger and the senate. and then in the senate it doesn't come through. so there is an exoneration in effect when it doesn't come to action. what does that mean? president trump when he was impeached did not get removed from office. he was in a sense exonerate. the same thing could happen here with president trump. kennedy: you make a good point. the house looks like a bunch of petulant children. and the senate looks like -- we are able to come to rational conclusions. >> the important thing is on what basis are they impeaching? they have nothing to move forward. >> harry reid said he's not a

nice man and that's impeachable. if you missed it, the internet yesterday had a few fissures. kanye west proclaimed his love for donald trump on twitter. he wrote, you don't have to agree with trump. but the mob can't make me not love him. we are both dragon energy. he is my brother. i love everyone. i don't agree with everything anyone does. that's what makes us individuals. and we have the right to independent thought. jarveds afterward the president tweeted, thank you, kanye, very cool. just a couple hours ago kanye took a jab at former president obama. he said obama was in office for 8 years and nothing in chicago

changed. the reaction from fans have been mostly negative. are we seeing the beginning of a major cultural shift? i will ask you first. i think kanye -- i know he has been attacked and maligned as shop is mentally unstable. he's actually saying rational things and he'll not be bullied into a series of thoughts and proclamations by the mob. let's remember him and kim gave a lot of money to hillary clinton. all he's saying is all the denegration trump is ridiculous. all this started with him talk about candace owen. but this doesn't mean he's anything. it just means he's giving cover for people to like president

trump. president trump got into office by not just being a bad ass. kennedy: even if you disagree with 90% of his stances, you have to appreciate his ability to make people mad and generate reactions. >> and the controversy surrounding his comments are proving his point. he says if you are in hollywood and usual not a lemming and you are not kissing a-s-s. he loves trump and he also loves ping-pong. i don't like cab yes because of his tweets and i like him because it's not a lemming. kennedy: shania twain said i

probably would have voted for the president. then she was attacked. then she went back on her original word. i would love for people to stand up and grow a pair. move in love, not fear. >> it's bold for him to stand up in defense of a president who many have thought he would have opposed. but i don't know where he stand at the end of all this. he walked both lines. what does it mean? it means he is kanye west. that's all it means. kennedy: and he's getting the last word and he'll be our next president. kennedy: i'm so deeply entertained by the whole thing. i love it that people on both side are confused and angry. god bless chaos. thank you both so much. coming up, the economy is

kennedy: where is our booming economy headed in the next year?

the latest fox news poll says 32% of voters say it will get better. 37% say it will stay the same. only 27% say it will get worse. the labor department reported the fewest number of americans on unemployment. my next guest is the author of "the capitalist comeback." andy puzder. even if there is economic success enjoyed throughout the entire economic strata, that there are leftists who will stand in the way because they don't like the president. and it's sad. >> it's not just that they don't like the president.

with the terrible economy we had under president trump. if president trump is successful it puts the lie to this notion that wealth is a zero sum game. it's like john kennedy said, a rising economic tide lifts all boats. kennedy: i know you have taken issue with dodd-frank. these big banks are essentially getting a pass from legislation that was supposed to protect consumers and small banks, but it's done neither. >> i ran a big company. 140,000 employees made up of small companies. we have a lot of franchisees.

so i was dealing with small businesses all the time. and they were getting killed by dodd-frank because the community banks they relied on for funding were closing. kennedy: a lot of time small businesses, and small investors had to go to someone they knew in their town to get a loan. >> dodd-frank took the big banks that were too big to fail and made them bigger. when i used to come on shows like yours over the obama administration years, all we talked about are people don't have enough jobs. they are working part time. they are working entry-level jobs and they can't make a living. that was because we didn't have real economic growth. in the past 16 months. president trump deregulation, taxes, encouraging business. that has been turned completely

on its head. we have fewer people on unemployment benefits and we also have more job openings than we had ever. >> what happened to the labor forward participation? >> it held, but the percentage of the population that's employed has gone up. kennedy: would we have had this kind of gdp growth under president hillary clinton? no. employers are trying to fill good-paying positions because they can't find good employees. this is the capitalist comeback. kennedy: wages go up when you are looking for good people to fill the positions. >> the cbo gives credit to the tax cuts. president obama last year was

1.5%. socialism, pro questionsive policies do not work. kennedy: read the book. "topical storm" is next. stay put. ♪
