isn't that a sad thing? but you can't deny what steve said is true. there is something about twitter. it gets you to say things you shouldn't say. we'll see you next time. >> the country braces for more riots this weekend. >> more protests as student demonstrators take to the streets in defiance of president macron. reporter: the government is closing some of the their most famous lansd marks. >> over the weekend the iconic eiffel tower is closed tomorrow. this tightening security around tourist attractions. liz: we are monitoring this developing story. france in flames bracing for even more violent protests

tomorrow. president macron is nowhere to be found. even a french police union calling on its own police union members to join the nationwide protest and military deployed. the rest of iewrnl is watching. james comey is being called on the to testify again. comey commenting before, i cannot believe we are still talking about the hillary clinton emails. even thought it was james comey who held two uncalled for press conferences about it. paul manafort and michael cohen potentially facing four years in prison. two whistleblowers handing

"the evening edit" starts right now. welcome to the show. usual watching the fox business network. gregg pat cot is in paris as france prepares for more

demonstrations and protests nationwide. reporter: landmarks will be shut down tomorrow as paris braces for trouble. stores and restaurants shut down as well. some 89,000 police will be deployed nationwide to minimize the damage we saw last week here. authorities say they expect significant violence. they say the organization is total as part of the yellow vest protest that started against a protest against a rise in tax on gasoline and diesel fuel, and it turned into a broader populist action against high taxes and low wages. and a government that's thought to be out of touch with the people. he came in reforming, but he is thought to be distant from the people, and that's why he is

upset. we saw protests of students concerned about changes in their curriculum. images of kids being lined up outside of high school by the police have stoked pop there are a opinion and outrage as well. macron says the protests have been hijacked by the left. the' protest leaders say they want to hear from president macron. liz: the french protests a wake-up call scaring all of europe. it grew wildly out of control into working class riots. even after president macron canceled those tax hikes. now it's about rising cost of living and declining way of life on jocklessness.

steve hilton, what a story. reports of tax offices in france fire bombed. and all police units nationwide mobilized. steve: the phrase that comes to my mind look at all this, pride comes before a fall. he's been going around the last year or more in such an arrogant manner talking about how he's going -- he said this, like jupiter above the fray and above the mere mortals in the rest of politics. he has been so arrogant and treated working french people with such contempt, cut taxes for the wealthiest,' increase tax for the working people. unemployed workers were protected web said they should looks for work. with the gas tax process he says why can't they carpool instead. he just behaves with such con

tevment' towards what we call in america the unforgotten american that president trump has spoken up for. he said he'll be the first french president who would not buckle in the face of street protests. it has happened to every single president in modern french history, and it turned out the same with him. liz: the global condemnation of french police rounding up teenaged high school children forcing them to kneel in the mud. the bad economy in france, it's a socialist economy. the gdp has been flat lining. here in the u.s., it's pretty good. your take on this. steve: this is why this is such a tragedy. the french economy is so

overlaiden with regulation. this is what previous presidents tried to do to boost that sluggish economy with the kind of reforms. to be fair, that macron was talking about. and this battle over the fuel taxes was something that would not have in any way addressed the'' tax. his whole reform program that would have been good for france's economy is in jeopardy. liz: his approval rating crashing to the 18, 20, 23 percent range. france is the highest taxed nation of any country in europe. >> it's the tax, the difficulty in starting a business, hiring

and firing people. this is off-putting to entrepreneurs and investors. that's why france is lagging behind. there is a particular problem with youth employment. liz: we have low unemployment joblessness here. you don't see a european silicon valley. you don't see the see you brandt economy over there as you see it here. if you think europe is seeing this as a wake-up call? steve: that's the terrible problem. they won't see the real lesson here. what prompted the economic boom we have seen with trump? it's his economic policy agenda. it's been tax cuts and especially the deregulation. and every time that conversation in europe goes to why don't we have silicon valley and this

great economic success story, their answer is more bureaucracy and more centralized state intervention, from the e.u. for example. at one point they said let's have an e.u. version of google that we'll build. liz: let's get to the outrage in china other arrest of that huawei chief financial officer. do you think the media jumped the gun saying this is too much of an aggressive push by the trump administration. she was arrested in canada for sanctions fraud telling investor this had no relationship with skycom which is a company huawei helps run. steve: i think it's important

that this happened. it's a good thing that we are taking this action against china. this is just the latest example of china's breaches much international good practice and it's happening all over the economy and also to different sectors. in fact i think this kind of response is in a way better than a blunt tariff-based response. because this targets the bad behavior directly. liz: this is about fraud and deceit, right? each * yes, but it. steve: yes, but it's connected to the sanctions busting. it's an example of how the chinese government through state-controlled end -- enterprises are acting like rogue actors. i think this is a really good move. liz: be sure to catch steve

hilton's show, ""the next revolution"." federal prosecutors calling for michael co-on spend four years in prison. he pled guilty to lying to congress about an abandon plan to build a trump property in russia. cone says he talked many times with trump and russia tried to reach out to trump as early as 2016. president trump will nominate george h.w. bush's attorney general, william barr. president trump said barr was my first choice since day one. and he'll nominate state department spokes woman heather nauert. trump describing nauert as a

transparent moving forward. liz: facebook is accused of giving outside companies records of our texts and phone calls, who we are calling, and our facebook messages on the facebook site. there is zero privacy. x didn't know facebook was going into our android devices and picking up records of who we are calling or texting and selling that information. >> it's terrifying to think that facebook is reading text messages. liz: reading the messages on facebook. >> even so, it's jarring for people to learn about this. there has always been that hint much suspicion that facebook knows more than it let on. it's not just a happy media

network. they have to get something out of it. and wait turns out is fa what they are getting out of it is user information they are able to make a quick buck out of. >> you know what's going on at facebook, i would like your reaction to this. new reports coming in that a growing sense of workers use disposable phones so they can trash talk the company and their colleagues without the company finding out about it. >> can you really blame the employee for wanting to get out from under the people at facebook who have been mining users' private data. especially the aggressive response facebook has with anybody who criticizes her.

but this is reflected in facebook stock and big tech stock across the board. their stock has been plummeting because people are getting wise to the underhanded tactics these social media companies are using in addition to the awful bias towards conservatives. liz: 93 mutual funds dumped their shares in facebook. we'll see, though. great to see you, thanks for coming in. amazon reportedly looking to expand its cashierless go locations. necessity talked to officials at lax to launch go stores for concessions. kn authorities arrested the cfo of huawei over fraud allegations. specifically that she hid from

was breaking news president trump tweeting totally clear the president. now we have to figure out what that means. tonight we have got the news coming in on michael cohen, paul manafort and james comey. chung could be talking about any one of these men could we will bring more on that later in the show. bernie sanders whipping a fastball by stephen colbert in "the late show" last night. listen to this. >> a few years ago when we said that health care is a right, not a privilege and that we should create a medicare for all single-payer system, i was told

i'm crazy, it's extreme and i'm a french guy. 70% of the american people and last polls i have seen support medicare for all. liz: that is one poll they use the term medicare for all however the poll numbers dropped dramatically when people are instead asks, do you support single-payer? the "washington post" kaiser family foundation opposes 53% of americans support single-payer. 43% oppose it. that's a big difference from 70% who supported. joining me now steve verrilli and f it just didn't mean. they feared it would bankrupt the state and colorado too rejected it saying he would bankrupt the state. doctors and hospital staff say he single-payer will collapse the health care industry. your thoughts on that. >> they would be the ones to know the reality of what bernie

sanders is trying to sell. listen anytime the word free comes up people should pause and take note because nothing is free. there are costs for goods and services and americans are not stupid. what you don't want is for the government to be involved, to control really your health care needs and services because when the costs skyrocket what they are going to do is rationalize health care. they will be picking and choosing how and when you should get coverage and by whom. liz: i have talked to brain surgeons, i've talked to breast cancer surgeons, i've talked to nurses. they all say he single-payer would be the worst thing to hit this country. we understand we want to take care of the poor absolutely and get them the care they need. they keep saying this is not the way to do it to have the government control your health care. the sandersville was with -- would wipe out existing insurance and would replace

everything across-the-board. we would be reporting to the government. >> is certainly think it's a delicate issue and the numbers you have presented their eye think it indicates that health care policies are complicated. to look at the numbers of support for the affordable care act those are numbers from obamacare. this is the same bill so i think the nomenclature that we use is complicated number one. liz: how about the truth that it is single-payer and it's government-run health care. i think people if you call it a nice soft name like medicare for all, it it's not that. replaces all the insurance across the country, any insurance you have got. >> i think what people are coming to terms with his if you are loved one gets sick you shouldn't have to go bankrupt to get them the treatment that they need under the single-payer system or medicare for all system i don't know the specifics of what bernie sanders is introducing but i think that

understanding is starting to resonate with the american people. liz: dineen people say the cost is so high because the government dominates half of the health care industry in the majority of the time they are doing paperwork and not treating patients. your take on this. >> sure that's going to come down to what kind of service that you get as well. when you have the likes of bernie sanders trying to push it saying what they are doing is misleading americans americans. they are putting them on the wrong page and not presenting the facts of them. i think it's really important for folks to realize and recognize what bernie sanders and those who are in support of single-payer what this really boils down to. it comes down to the government, the bureaucrats picking and choosing for you and your family how and when you should get coverage or services from doctors and hospitals.

liz: dineen thank you so much. we are going to see again in a couple of minutes. michael colin and paul manafort both on the hot seat hoping charged with lying and much more that's the latest word tonight from federal prosecutors. we have the details next was the evidence against the clinton foundation now mounting 33 whistleblowers with hundreds of pages of evidence potentially showing pay-to-play there and also bill clinton allegedly using the foundation for his own personal expenses. we will return and talk about that as well in just a few minutes. stay there. structured so we do r when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management.

learn more at standard lithium com. liz: let's get to breaking news about michael cohen and paul manafort. fox news leland vittert has the latest. >> high liz we will start with paul manafort. this is how the government is alleging that manafort broke his plea agreement with the special counsel's office. they alleged that he lied not

only about his contacts with administration officials saying he didn't tell the special counsel's office when he was talking to the administration, lied about his discussions with a russian political consultant, light about a wire transfer information related to another doj investigation. specifically what those lies were and how in the words of the government they are discernible lies, we don't know. so much of it is black now. for example after being told of such evidence manafort conceded that he and his russian political operative discussed or may have discussed blank at each meeting. therein lies the difficulty in trying to figure out exactly what they are accusing manafort of lying about with the government saying they don't need the plea agreement to abide anymore. the next issue is michael cohen the government conceding that michael collins the attorney and fixer did provide a lot of help to the government. this coming from the special

counsel's office detailing cohen's cooperation with the government. his assistance has been useful first to defend the providing information about his own contacts with russian interests during the campaign and in discussion with others and of course making those contacts. it also notes in a footnote that cohen said he talked multiple times to donald trump about reaching out to the russian government. that is a connection in what we are learning out of the cohen plea agreement. no worth the liz this all started a couple of weeks ago. we got a first look at the michael flynn plea agreement. he was a national security adviser to donald trump had been flipped and pled guilty and robert mueller had extensive operation -- in my room or the special counsel's office of a thoughtful incorporated so much and had been so helpful that he should not have any prison time at all.

that is not what they are saying about michael cohen and that's obviously not what they are saying about paul manafort. they said not only should he go to jail but he lied to them and therefore they want to rip up his plea agreement. liz: letwin vittert thank you so much for coming in. for his reaction let's get to bill mckern. let's laid out quickly. here's what we know right now. let's get first to cohen. mueller says cohen indicated that russia tried to reach trump and his side of the aisle in early 2015. now we get to manafort. manafort had interaction with the russian associate. that russian associate head ties to the russian military and the military was attacking the democrats. looks like on the one-sided at its cohen talking about the trump tower in moscow and manafort cited that is showing up the trump tower to talk about accessing dirt on hillary.

>> every couple of months we get new information that implies without definitely proving that trump worked with the russians to affect the election. i'm old-fashioned. with the special counsel i still believe it should in pursuit of a crime. the crime is not talking the talk. the crime would be if he said to the russians okay i will work with used to help you. you hacked them or just any kind of cooperation. we are a long ways from that. a lot of teasing kinds of things michael cohen has obviously been blabbing now and the special counsel still wasn't happy with the information that is getting. do i think trump is in trouble? i don't think he's in trouble on the russia france. i do think with michael cohen, the payments that stormy daniels

made could be considered a campaign violation. it could possibly them the impeachment for that. that's up to congress. it would be hard to prove in court i think. i don't know we have a lot of details. seems after all these months of investigation where seeing it coming to an end. the issue that he he was set to investigate was russian interference in the 2016 election and whether donald trump conspired with the russians to do that. liz: but then he was given a broader -- . >> we are talking about deals. it might be another thing is the deal actually came through but with all these why didn't donald trump go ahead? liz: let's get to more news of the day. james comey gets groped by republicans even saying we are talking about the hillary clinton e-mails again? he complained about that. >> i mean look, james comey got

off lightly this week. if you look at his filing quashing the subpoena from the house, the idea that he could dictate the terms he wanted. he wanted to talk in public for two reasons. one i can answer that because of national security but also what congress wanted him to do was to give a deposition in a public hearing. members get five minutes. you can dodge the question to the deposition keeps going until they run out of questions. liz: and want to get to the clinton foundation because this looks like quite a case. three whistleblowers, hundreds of pages of evidence alleging there was pay-to-play and bill clinton used it as a personal piggy bank. your take on this. >> look at it. the fbi investigation was so corrupt in the deal that they made. the memo that rod rosenstein wrote for why james comey should be fired still holds up today. it was outrageous for him to give that press conference that

he gave. the other thing is he violated all the procedures. again james comey one set of rules for everyone else in one set of rules for himself. liz: what about the clinton foundation? what is your take on back? >> well, we will see. it's a little late now i think. liz: why are republicans just dealing with this now? >> in terms of comey, they had interviewed 15 other fbi agents and doj and they got a lot of documents. they waited until the end to talk to the direct or because they have a lot more information he hasn't testified since last year. liz: bill mcgurn we will have you back next week to break it all down. that was great. let's get to what's going was going on at the border to affect mexico has realized the problems with the caravan are out of control. they aren't liking it. we have fresh new details on that. we will get reaction from the panel as well but first

democrats now say hey let's delay talk of a border wall funding mechanism until september of 2019. breaking news to apprehensions at the border soaring to an all-time high. we will get to the bottom of all of that. former i.c.e. director tom homan is with us next. stay right there. erything i buy and last year, i earned $36,000 in cash back. which i used to offer health insurance to my employees. what's in your wallet?

i am a techie dad.n. i believe the best technology should feel effortless. like magic. at comcast, it's my job to develop, apps and tools that simplify your experience. my name is mike, i'm in product development at comcast. we're working to make things simple, easy and awesome.

liz: we have breaking news. border apprehensions spiking to record highs. a 25% jump from fiscal 2017. that is happening now. a 25% jump your president trumpets preparing to meet with nancy pelosi and chuck schumer over what pelosi calls in an immoral border wall. now the democrats are saying let's delay the talk about funding for the border wall until 2019 republicans say that's give trump 25 billion. there's quite a split here serve. your take. >> i'm not surprised that it's ridiculous. people like nancy pelosi don't want to put a border wall up but she supports sanctuary cities and sanctuary state of california to keep the men. i set at 100 times i don't care if you are republican or

democrat what's the downside of securing our border? it means less illegal immigration and less drugs. what is the downside? there is none. her responsibilities to protect this nation and protect u.s. citizens and she's failing to do so. she puts her own political hatred against this president over protecting america which is her responsibility. liz: charles schumer was for border security earlier. >> schumer voted for border security. what changed? president trump's there. they don't want to get this president a win. that's what it comes down to. their hatred of this president and his policies over public safety and national security. it's terrible that they are doing that. liz: here's the thing is breaking latin america has the world's highest murder rate. your take on that. >> latin america is not a perfect place to live and certainly not his greatest united states. i can't blame anybody for wanting to come to this great country, the greatest country on

earth but there is the right way do it in a wrong way to do it. you can't run the greatest country on this earth and respect -- not respect the laws. we are a nation of laws and labor rights protect our borders. liz: sanctuary cities are a real threat. >> sanctuary cities are a danger to the public. to knowingly breach up -- release them back into the public is wrong. it's important removed and not only from the community but the country. the criminal aliens in jail are going to victimize the communities they live in which is the immigrant community and they can't arrest that bad guy in a county jail. sanctuary cities do not protect immigrant communities and put them at greater risk of crime.

at the same time sanctuary cities entice more people to come to this country and that bankrolls the criminal organizations and the cash flow to the cartels. this is just terrible. there's no good reason for sanctuary cities. liz: tom homan great to see you sir. coming up after the break the massive illegal immigration more news on that. we are going to debate it, next. y half the story? at t. rowe price, hundreds of our experts go beyond the numbers to examine investment opportunities firsthand. like a biotech firm that engineers a patient's own cells to fight cancer. this is strategic investing. because your investments deserve the full story. t. rowe price. invest with confidence.

liz: let's stay on the breaking news about michael cohen and paul manafort. cohen is indicating russia tried to reach trump as early as 2014. and manafort lied about tie to the russian military hacking the democrats. your take on all of this. >> my head is spinning over all the information that continues to come out with both of these individuals. but when it comes to the entire thing, the investigation with robert mueller. this has been going on for over two years. the money, time and resources and we don't have concrete

answers to the initial terms and charges which was russian collusion with president trump and his campaign people. what are the answers? and will we ever find out the truth to what's going on? liz: as of this moment, when you look at what's going on. no proof president trump worked with the russians to hack into the democrats. there is no evidence of that right now. that's why the president is tweeting out, i'm in the clear. thank you. >> there is no hard proof yet, that's why the investigation is ongoing. over the course of this investigation, a number of people close to the president have been indicted or pled guilty. national security advisor michael flynn, campaign chairman paul manafort. personal attorney, michael

cohen. foreign' advisor papadopoulos. we are starting to see some of the results of the investigation come in. liz: the smoke around michael cohen saying the trump tower moscow project was used as leverage by the russians over trump. your take on that. again, i'm trying to diligently follow all of this because i have to talk about this on a regular basis. some of the information is just now coming out. my concern is now i think americans are being misled here, liz. it's unfortunate. it's like they are trying to find a crime and then they will try to figure out all the other back end of it. it's like they are being proven innocents before they are proven guilty. my head is spinning with all of this.

i'm sure americans are as well. i hope they get to the bottom of this so we know what's going on. >> i don't think any of us know what robert mueller knows and those working in the investigation. but at the end of the day, as the president loves to say, we are a nation of law and order. the fact robert mueller is bringing charges against people who have violated the law, it's an important fact we need to make the american people aware of. liz: the hush money to president trump's paramours, what do you think about that? >> as time goes on i'm sure we'll get to the bottom of the details. i think it's unfortunate the

country has been held up over two years of russian collusion and we don't have any evidence of that. liz: "vanity fair" comes out with a piece, is that it? is that all you got? nathan, it's been 20 months and there have been no charges brought on that. >> no charges have been brought against the president, but we are starting to see a fuller picture come into play. i think with a democratic house, them protect bob mueller's investigation as much as they can. >> the news has been dominating russian collusion forever and ever and we don't see proof of that. liz: thank you for your time there covering that breaking news. and thank you for having us in your homes and thank you for

watching. lou dobbs is next right here on the fox business network. have a good weekend. lou: president trump make it official, nominating former u.s. attorney william barr to lead the justice department. president trump: i want to confirm that bill barr, one of the most of respected jurists in the country, highly respected lawyer, he'll be nominated for the united states attorney general. and hopefully that process will go very quickly. he was my first choice from day one. respected by republicans and democrats. lou: some radical
