to you if you go there. they are a bunch of crazy socialists. what do you think they will do when you get there. >> we'll say with one voice, america will never and socialist country. liz: a full-throat attack on socialism at cpac. we'll show you how top conservatives and republicans are now laying out the battle lines for 2020. it's a full-scale blitz to destroy the democrats big push for socialism. that has blown open a split happening right now in the democratic party. 101 moderate democrats are trying to reject the hard left saying it was us, the moderate, the 10 rifts why the democrats won back the house.

socialists are saying you the hard left will lose it all for the democrats again. who will win here. we'll take you inside the draconian measures that riddled medicare for all. outlawing ings and doctors. and we'll show you what they are not telling you. that is, more than a quarter trillion dollars of fraud, government waste and more driven by government programs already like medicare and medicaid. to socialist alexandria ocasio-cortez, democrats pushing back on her. she made a threat to take names from her own party. cortez warned fellow democrats, it's my progressive way or the highway for you if you side in any way, shape or form with republicans. don't push your luck or you will face my liberal army who will

knock you out of your seats in 2020. this as a split opens in the republican party. ted cruz said the republicans have gone crazy. susan collins and others say hold on, ted cruz. more republicans will push to block president trump's emergency declaration for border wall funding. maxine waters and others launching a feeding friendsy for president trump including his bank records. nicolas maduro's defense chief responsible for the murder of venezuelans trying to bring in humanitarian aid.

i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit" starts right now. welcome to the show. you are watching the fox business network. we begin tonight with president trump clarifying his comments on otto warmbier. he's the american student who was murdered by north koreans. the allegation is he died from severe injuries suffered at hand of north koreans. brake berman is at the white house. reporter: the white house having to defend comments by president trump at the press conference in vietnam. he said he doesn't believe kim jong-un knew at the time about the detainment of otto warmbier. doctors said he was unresponsive and had brain damage.ook issue with the president's comments

saying we have been respectful during this summit process and now we must speak out. kim and his evil regime are responsible. no excuses or lavish praise can change that. the white house is not backing off the president's initial comments. >> he has deep affection and shares the grief of the warmbier family. that will never change. but chairman kim did not know -- what the president is saying is there is no indication chairman knew what was happening to ought 0 to warmbier when it happened. reporter: the president said i never like being misrepresented, and especially with it comes to otto warmbier and his family. remember i got otto out along with three others. remember he was taken out on the

previous administration's watch. otto has become a symbol of strong passion and strength. i love otto and think of him often. liz: let's start with the republicans. republican senator susan collins joining the democrat senator to introduce a new bill to block president trump's border wall funding. let's bring in republican representative debbie lerks sko. you serve on the homeland security and judiciary committee. what's your reaction to the pushback by republicans? >> i totally support president trump. i live in a border state, arizona. and i have been down to the border. there always crisis at our border. i have spoken to border patrol agents, the boots on the ground

and officials. they said there is a crisis at the border. and they said a fence is needed as part of the solution. so, you know, there may be some republicans in the senate pushing back at the president. i certainly am not. i'm totally supportive. i know there is a national emergency. and the president's number one responsibility to us citizens is to protect us, and that's exactly what he's doing. liz: republican lisa murkowski and lamar alexander are pushing back saying this is taking money away from the pentagon's needs. they are prioritizing congress's power of the purse. > >> everybody can have different positions. i want to protect military funding. i want to do energy my power to make sure we keep that funding

there. limits say the president gets down to the military construction funding from the other buckets he can choose from first. we can always give more money, the congress can give more money to these military projects and that's certainly what i would support. liz: let's get to republican senator ted cruz slamming republicans on the border wall. >> there is a technical description for wms going on. democrats have gone bat crap crazy. liz: do you agree with senator cruz? >> i think they have gone overboard. and i think it will help republicans. they are advocating for illegal aliens over u.s. citizens. it's becoming clearer and clear tore me. not only have they blocked the border fencing. but we had good legislation last year on immigration reforms that

would have solved a lot of these problems. and not one single democrat in the u.s. house of representatives voted for it. >> that's interesting you bring that up. democrats are set to reintroduce the dream act on march 12. it's mystifying why democrats didn't bring up daca during the government shutdown. >> i can't speak for them. the only thing i can conclude is the democrats care more about illegal aliens than u.s. citizens. liz: that's your opinion, i hear what you are saying. >> with the crazy bill on election reform where they would automatically register everyone to vote, including illegals. i think they are overreaching, bringing into socialism against border security, against i.c.e.

government controlled medicare, healthcare for all. they are going overboard. and i think it american people are going to see exactly what they are up to. liz: thank you for joining us tonight. i appreciate it. liz: fox news steve harrigan is there on the ground, steve, what's the situation happening there. >> some disillusionment beginning to be heard on the streets of caracas about the one mod old interim president juan guaido. he was in paraguay today. bra dill before that, colombia before that. he says he's coming back to venezuela. but real questions about how he's going to get back in the country and if he'll be arrested upon reentry by the maduro regime. and battle back and forth between those two.

he says as soon as he returns monday he hopes to start exercising the office of president. it's hard to see how that's going to happen with the control of the police and military in maduro's hands in has been a global struggle blade out in venezuela. on one side you have the russians still backing nicolas maduro. the u.s. and 50 other countries backing guaido. that was played out yesterday in the u.n. security council. it would call for free and fair new presidential elections here in venezuela. that resolution vetoed by russia and china. let, take you to the state department. we'll get reaction from rich edson. reporting on the new sanctions america dropped on maduro's inner circle. >> there are more sanctions and restrictions on the maduro regime and state departments and administration are promising more. the treasury department

announced it was sanctioning several members of maduro's inner circle for blocking international aid from entering venezuela. u.s. also said it's revoking the visas of 49 aligned with maduro and their families. the in an interview with fox news the special envoy to venezuela, elliott abrams, said the united states and the u.s., all options are on the table. >> i don't want to telegraph to the regime. we don't want to talk about it. the reason they are talking about it is they want to diminish the support for guaido and the venezuelan people. reporter: he emphasizes that u.s. is pursuing peaceful transition of power in venezuela. juan guaido this paraguay. he has met with leaders over the

past week in colombia and brazil. he says despite threats of arrest on the lives of him and his family, he'll return to venezuela monday at the latest. i asked elliott abrams bps the sanction of cuba. abrams refused to comments on whether the united states was considering sanctions, by says the u.s. is always thinking about its relationship with cuba. let's get to your money. first day of the month. all three major indices closing higher. the 2,800 level for the first time since november.

march 1 is when meteorological spring starts. march 1 and june 1. today is the first day of it. and we certainly have winter. we barely thanked winter across much of the eastern seaboard. not the case in the west. we had incredible amounts of moving in earnest overnight. we saw up to 24 feet of snow across the higher elevations. but watch how this plays out. it pulls out into the central part of the plains bringing a swath of snow in kansas and missouri. severe weather down across at south. this what we are watching.

potentially a big storm sunday night into monday. we have a couple shots of snow. one of them we saw a little bit last night. that moves out of here throughout much of the day tomorrow. a quick breezy snow tomorrow evening. what happens with that one? we can't say exactly just yet. that's the center of the storm. the coastal storms which we have not had a single coastal storm nor easter all season long. the center of the storm is still over the pacific ocean. we don't have observation pints on that. we'll see snow likely across the interior sections by the time we are done with this. this is how it plays out. rain across the south. and snow in across areas of the northeast. how much?

maybe overnight tonight into tomorrow, a couple inches across coastal areas. 4 to 5. then we'll go toward that storm sunday night, you get the idea here. nobody is going to get a blockbuster storm out of this. coastal areas, a little bit of snow then maybe some rain. the good part is when you get snow this late in the season the sun angle is so high in the sky it melts very quickly. so we have that on our side. snow is the best possible way. liz: great to see you from the fox weather center. we have breaking news coming in. president trump tweeting i asked china to immediately remove all tariffs on our agricultural products, including beef, pork, et cetera, based on the fact we are moving along nicely with strayed discussions, and i did not increase their second launch

of tariffs. this is important for our great farmers and me. there are -- tesla settled a convertible bond that was putting pressure on the stock. it could very well wipe out a quarter of tesla's cash on hand. we will be watching this story as elon musk said yesterday his company will not be profitable in the first quarter. look at this. lyft beat rival uber. lyft plans to raise $100 million. reports are tonight coming in that banks working with lyft value the company up to $25 billion. a recall at subject are you. -- at subaru.

liz: welcome back. you are watching the fox business network. we are coming into the bottom of the hour. cpac is in full swing. it looks like this here seen at cpac is crunch that four syllable word socialism. doug mccollum is live at cpac. >> cpac is oftentimes a test and were issues coming up in the following campaign. if that holds true socialism within the democratic party will be target number one for republicans in the 2020 campaign a standing room only speech this morning vice president mike pence called socialism the single greatest threat to american democracy. the only thing green about the green new deal is how much it will cost taxpayers. he recorded margaret thatcher's running out of money and he brought down the house with this comment from his boss.

>> democrats are bracing the same tired economic theories that have impoverished nations and stifle the liberties of millions over the past century. that system is socialism. >> corralling existing troops may not be enough for the cpac crowd to senator ted cruz told us for example better works campaign outspent his campaign pre-went to democrats monitoring demographic advantages have republicans trying to broaden their base. republicans see other vulnerabilities within the democratic party. >> stop having a culture which tells us we should want to be hip-hop artist and basketball players are white shouldn't want to be doctors and lawyers. >> cpac invited speakers this year from the party. for example listen to former obama adviser van jones praising

republicans for having taken on the issue of -- . >> my problem is i now have the conservative movement that is actually doing a great job on what should be my issue. this is supposed to be my issue. you are dealing with my issues. >> two years ago conservatives were divided over donald trump. he will speak your tomorrow morning is the undisputed king of the republican party. liz: it's great to see you sir, thank you so much for your reporting. we will be right back with nigel farage. nice. but, uh... what's up with your... partner? oh. well, we just spend all day telling everyone how we customize car insurance, because no two people are alike, so... limu gets a little confused when he sees another bird that looks exactly like him.

the show. what do you think of the cpac's call to arms to squash for socialism? >> what's been happening in my country and here in america with the democrats is a new wave, a really serious hard left. socialism is one word. marxism as far as week ago and i think it's right to talk about this. they are too many young people who are tempted by this ideology tempted by the concept that everything comes for free. i would remind them that all you need to do is look at venezuela to realize it. liz: or look at your own country, right nigel? >> in the 1970s i grew up in a socialist country. i sought money fleeing britain and i saw talented people fleeing britain. i saw the country really sinking down. mrs. thatcher came in and changed everything by giving us

capitalism and cutting taxes. i have lived there that night seated in my lifetime. it's very important the doctrine of socialism is challenged and it's pretty clear that's where democrats are going. liz: nigel lets get your reaction to what vice president mike pence had to say about this when he addressed cpac. >> you know margaret thatcher probably said it best. the trouble is socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money. liz: there's a footnote to that nigel. here's what's happening right now to your point of alexandra cortez threatening members of her own party that if the democrats over their public and she's going to take names. this is the fact that the hard left cannot moderates out of their seats? srgs thing will happen in 2020. nancy pelosi is not having any of this. what's your take on what's going on there? >> i take on it is this. many have the really hard left marxist type socialist not only

are their ideologies once they feel that their behavior tends to be very unpleasant, very personal very nasty and the idea that she's talking about drawing up lists of people and taking retaliatory action should frighten everybody. this is a dangerous doctrine and those that abdicated pretend to the world they love people -- are lovely people but actually they are not. i think the mask has slipped. we are seeing her truly. liz: moderates like conor lamb from pennsylvania said what do you talking about i'm representing my voters in my district. more than two dozen democrats from swing districts voted with republicans on a gun control law to notify i.c.e. if an illegal tries to buy guns and here's what happened. she react it the super deadly and that's when she said we are

going to drop list and nigel to your point of republican kevin mccarthy is really upset and he's saying there will the less than 60 days into the new congress and the loudest voice in the room a socialist wants to change the rules in congress has been -- so they could silence people who don't agree with it. your take on that? >> again the further left you get the less democratic they are in a genuine sense of the word. liz: i disagree with that. they say they are mostly democratic. >> they did say that but that's a mccarthy behaved with the boot on the other foot. he behaved with dignity. unseemly and nasty but lately we should all be happy about this because maybe we are seeing the truth about the new left in american politics just as we have seen a turn in britain about the new left and that's why jeremy corbin's poll ratings are tanking and after more stories like this the same as going to have -- happen to the

democrats. liz: nigel we love having you on and we love your perspective. next up we are going to bring in breaking news happening right now. "fox news" confirming house democrats will take all necessary steps including litigation necessary to obtain the presidents tax returns. a spokesperson for nancy pelosi put out a statement quote every day the american people and congress learn more about president trump simper bradys and conflicts of interest the influence peddling, violations of the constitution all roads leading back to president trump's finances give the house legitimate legislative oversight and legal reasons to review the presidents tax returns. we will take steps including litigation if necessary to obtain them. given president trump's recalcitrance. the committees with legislative equities are working with ways and means to be sure the house

is able to present the strongest possible case. coming up "fox news" contributor and the hill columnists liz peek is also a cpac. liz it's great to have you on. >> banks, and happy to be here. liz: the democrats are under pressure from the hard left. they are starting to push back. they are saying no to socialist plans like single-payer and no to the great new deal in no to abolishing the electoral college college. we are talking about democrats like conor lamb congressman yarmuth and anna su. other democrats are saying they don't like this liz. >> look conor lamb is a good example but as we know democrats are in control of the house because they won districts that previously had gone for president trump. those are people who cannot possibly keep those seats past the next election if they vote for medicare for all, green new deal and all the other progressive measures that are being pushed by let's face it

alexandria ocasio-cortez and others will become the voice of this party. i think the party elders must be tearing their hair out. we know nancy pelosi is having some problems keeping her group in order. there have been folks which have gone against democrats in the last couple of weeks. look, this is a serious problem for democrats and obviously good news for republicans. if they were singing from the same hymnal republicans would have a problem. liz: your point is well taken. bear 100 democrats known as the new democrat coalition. they are the ones the ones pushing back saying to your point liz where the swing districts? where the reasons why the democrats won control of the house but when you look the recent medical or -- medicare for all bill liz it's really draconian and a little over 100 democrats from 2018. >> well you know here's the thing medical -- medicare for all sounds great, it's a great

sound bite that polling shows clearly when people learn more about it they learn they will have to ditch their own private insurance and their taxes are going to double for it etc., the polling shows nothing. this is the beginning of the rollout of a program which as you point out is really draconian. i'm surprised they went as hard tack on this as they have because all you have to do is read up on what's going on in canada, what's going on in the uk and find out that this doesn't work very well and by the way in both of those countries there are private options. they are talking about no option at all. liz: that's the point. the criticism of medicare for all they are being misleading. they are misleading the american people. look at the amount of fraud government waste and medicare right now in medicaid. health care system why they are rand corporation $350 billion

plus in government waste and fraud happening now in medicaid and medicare liz. they would not talk about that. they tried to defend his saying well you know ronald reagan called medicare socialist at one point. that's a weak lame response to what critics say. they are falling apart within the polls. morning consult found people are shown the truth behind it i think harris hill found it plunging and kaiser did as well liz. >> i was watching a segment on npr about it last night with one of the proponents in congress and it was amazing to me. she likened it to your rollout of medicare for all to the rollout of social security. think about that liz through social security is writing checks to older americans. medicare for all is turning over and upside down our entire health care industry. that told me these people are

not serious and they don't know much about her health care industry. that was a really kind of shocking statement. look, it's not going to pass. it's certainly not going to pass while the senate is an in republicans hands but even going down this road it's pretty scary. liz: a final quick point liz and i'm going to footnote this. the government has to approve your doctor hospital and your private insurance plan plan. when people hear that, they don't like it. we want you back on the show. good to see liz. venezuela's crumbling collapse. it's reeling from american sanctions and look at this nicolas maduro throwing up a hail mary. he moves the government's safe oil rent office. that office has moved to moscow. maduro is trying to get closer to russia. we have that story for tonight and also president trump again under siege. nancy pelosi argues why the

liz: major developments in venezuela. the trump administration hitting socialist dictator of nicolas maduro top security and defense chief with new sanctions. this has maduro is moving closer to russia. he ordered that venezuela's state oil office in lisbon be relocated to moscow. meantime maduro posted a 40 minute livestream of his plan for a carnival in venezuela as a socialism continues to cause collapse. now this, president juan guaido is moving to oust maduro. let's move to officer don cramer. it's great to see you sir. >> with the sanctions little by little it relieves more and more sanctions not only to venezuela officials and venezuela but in the u.s. slowly strangling them and cutting off their foothold for financial resources. one thing i find interesting

about this carnival reminds me of wallace hartley as the band played as the titanic sank and ascended into the deep. liz: sir i would like your reaction to democrat representative omar. she refuses to recognize juan guaido is the constitutional leader of venezuela and won't say nicolas maduro is a big tater. watch this. >> you support the leader of the opposition as being the president right now. >> absolutely. liz: what direction to that? >> is a continuation of what we are seeing from this new class of formerly called democrats. they are recognizing a socialist and much like the direction i think they would love for the united states to go. why would they go against its when he's supports these very types of political system that they support? liz: let's get back to the sanctions by nicolas maduro previewer saying this is a positive step toward that

development to the rise of democracy and freedom under one y. dell. it seems the other side will say none of this maduro is becoming more and more entrenched inside. your take on that? >> i think it's just the opposite. there's more optimism and more people who are coming out in celebrating and moving forward. they are going through tough times and they are rising up to challenge madeira even they know it's a great risk to themselves and their families. they see this as a direction and the future they want the country to go. liz: to your point reports are coming in the people inside the soila are actually quote cursing out maduro in public. that's all the rage in venezuela. her final report there? >> the funny thing on that if they had done that a year ago or a few months ago that's not only an outrage that complete arrest for coming out against maduro so that shows the courage to survive. liz: john cramer thank you so

much for coming in. we will have more on the report coming up that nancy pelosi is confirming yes they will move to get trump's tax returns. that debate is coming up. this is not a bed... it's a revolution in sleep. ..ee each side to keep you both comfortable. and snoring? how smart is that? smarter sleep. so you can come out swinging,

maintain your inner focus, and wake up rested and ready for anything. sleep number is ranked #1 in customer satisfaction with mattresses by j. d. power. save $500 on select sleep number 360 smart beds. only for a limited time. but when i started seeing things, i didn't know what was happening... so i kept it in. he started believing things that weren't true. i knew something was wrong... but i didn't say a word. during the course of their disease around 50% of people with parkinson's

may experience hallucinations or delusions. but now, doctors are prescribing nuplazid. the only fda approved medicine... proven to significantly reduce hallucinations and delusions related to parkinson's. don't take nuplazid if you are allergic to its ingredients. nuplazid can increase the risk of death in elderly people with dementia-related psychosis and is not for treating symptoms unrelated to parkinson's disease. nuplazid can cause changes in heart rhythm and should not be taken if you have certain abnormal heart rhythms or take other drugs that are known to cause changes in heart rhythm. tell your doctor about any changes in medicines you're taking. the most common side effects are swelling of the arms and legs and confusion. we spoke up and it made all the difference. ask your parkinson's specialist about nuplazid.

[♪] liz: fox news confirming house democrats are moving to take all necessary steps, including litigation if necessary, to get president trump's tax returns. let's bring in the american majority ceo, ned ryun. >> they will stop at nothing. what it is, liz, i think they are growing increasingly frustrating. they thought they had a silver bullet from the trump russia collusion which was a fairytale. they will see if they can't get trump by death by a thousand

cuts. i think they are determined to bring down trump. get used to disappointment. it's not happening. liz: i personally testified before congress about irs reform. you have to have a legislative reason to look at a president's tax returns. there is confidentiality. a spokesman for nancy pelosi says there is a legislative reason. they are alleging tax evasion on the part of president trump. don't understand what the legislative reason is right there. >> the real hypocrisy is most of members of congress refuse and keep their tax returns secret. when nancy pelosi offered up some legislation in january trying to force the president to release their tax returns, she left members of congress out of

that legislation. it's deeply hypocritical. this isn't going to slow down. they are not interested in legislation. they are interested in investigations. the hypocrisy. i was thinking about this watching the cohen testimony when they are trying to nail trump on payments. what happened to the sex slush fund when they used taxpayer dollars to settle ax abuse. they won't release those. the hypocrisy is staggering. i find them to be deeply hypocritical on a lot of different fronts. liz: there is a political side to all of this. you wonder how it would hold up in a court of law. setting aside michael cohen. treasury secretary steve mnuchin would have to sign off on the

tax returns. it's going to be a big fight coming up. >> i don't see this happening, liz. i think what the democrats are trying to do is drive a narrative to tell a lot of different stories and hope the mainstream media will be their propagandists and whip people into a frenzy think there is something there. liz: he has been accused of inflating his assets and deflating his assets. we know this story is out there. this stuff predates his getting into the oval office. issue with his tax returns. there has to be a legislative reason to break into the confidentiality of a president's tax returns. >> it's just not happening. democrats are getting increasingly frustrated and then they will have something i think will be a soul sucking moment

when donald trump gets re-elected. liz: thank you for having us in your homes. thank you for watching. lou dobbs is next. have a good evening. [♪] lou: good evening. our top story tonight. the radical dimms in disarray. the democratic party seems to have lost control. certainly its leaders seem to have lost control of it. house speaker nancy pelosi in a budding feud with frebman congress one and alexandria ocasio-cortez. i don't know how they can fight. nancy pelosi has been there forever, and aoc got there six weeks ago. after 26 moderate democrats broke with radicals within the party and sided with republicans on background gun legislation.
