price. you know i think your money is safer than some of these higher priced issues. [closing bell rings] liz: mark travis gets to witness it for both you guys and me. appears to be a record for s&p and nasdaq. all-time records. the dow still 200 points away from the record. connell: pretty good stuff with positive earnings surprises lift the stocks. record highs. 78% of companies when you look at it beaten on earnings per share estimates so far. we're looking good. covering biggest names this week. we have big week still ahead of us. the dow settling in 145 point gain. within one percent of a record close. nasdaq kind of a story. a record high. a record high for the nasdaq. it is the 96th record for the nasdaq under president trump. the first this year, it is a big deal the s&p 500. fighting into the closeout around looks like record territory as well.

we'll cover it all. i'm connell mcshane. melissa: welcome back, thank you. melissa: i'm melissa francis. this is "after the bell." we have more on the big market movers but here is what is happening this hour. a major test of president trump's executive power at the nation's highest court. the supreme court hearing arguments over plans to add a citizenship question to the zen sus. we're breaking down the implications for the fight over immigration and for our national elections. plus, aunt becky is fighting back. lori loughlin's latest move to avoid jail time but her defense is about to get a whole lot trickier, the coach who allegedly made the fake sports profile for her daughter agrees to plead guilty. uh-oh. number of measles cases spreading across the country. why you might be at risk even if you're already vaccinated. this one shocked me. we'll tell you what you need to

we're seeing a lot of companies able to price products. so they're not getting slammed by example, fallout for tariffs and other cost elements. companies are doing pretty well. i think this earnings recession has been much talked about, two quarters consecutively of down earnings. it ain't going to happen. now there is a lot of people out there thinking the first quarter will see a slight increase in earnings. connell: numbers have been good. gary kaltbaum joining the panel as well today, especially for tech companies, gary. when you consider the political tech lash people call it. a lot of politicians elizabeth warren one of them, calling to go after the tech companies calling them for to be broken up. even amazon she said should be broken up but even after the comments apparently the senator is an amazon loser herself. >> do you order stuff from amazon? >> sure. >> you do?

what is last thing you ordered? >> a mailbox. [laughter] >> okay. connell: sounds like you gary, you ordered a mailbox from amazon but you haven't called for the company to be broken up. >> look, socialists with our money, capitalists with their own. that is the name of the game. bernie isis a multimillionaire but millionaires are bad. it will be an interesting election as we go into next year. i do believe it will be socialism versus capitalism. hopefully capitalism wins. melissa: twitter shares closing up more than 15% following an earnings beat. let's get to gerri willis on floor of the new york stock exchange with details. reporter: melissa, are up handily here, about 5.38 here. why, a double beat. expectation was 37 cents a share. reality a huge move there.

revenue 787 million. 18% gain on expectations. monthly active users were up nine million to 330 million. they have estimated that twitter would lose 2.2 million users, even so, now the company says it will use completely different metric, monetizable daily active users. that simply means people exposed to advertising on twitter. if you use that metric it would have been up 12%. executives are saying numbers are better because they're weeding out spam and targeting ads better. melissa, back to you. melissa: gerri, thank you. connell: the other big story this week so far, oil adding to its gains at a six-month high due to sanctions against iran. phil is in chicago out at cme. people are talking about the inevitability of 3-dollar gasoline, right? >> it really looks like it will be happening this summer, connell. we saw rbob futures level off

after 4 navcent jump yesterday but i don't think that is the end of the story. you have to look at the price of crude oil. crude oil hit the highest level we've seen since last november and it is really driven by the sanctions that will be on iran the first week of may. and also, a little bit of skepticism by some traders whether saudi arabia and the united arab emirates will really rise to the occasion, raise production, bail out president trump. president trump says hey, these guys will work with us. they will make sure the market is well-supplied. traders don't know what that means. last time saudi arabia and the united arab emirates they acted proactive when president trump said he would put sanctions on iran, they raised production too fast. we know what happened. the waivers came. oil prices crashed. they don't want that to happen again. more upside risk. connell: phil flynn for us in

chicago. melissa. melissa: holding a tech giant responsible. an 18-year-old filing a billion dollar lawsuit against apple claiming they wrongfully accused him of stealing from stores using facial recognition technology. reporter: this is surprising story. he says he was falsely accused, arrested in his home at 4:00 this morning. i will go over some of the details. he was accused of stealing from apple stores. he says he was at his senior prom. the theft of the first one was to have taken place at boston. he was accused of thefts from apple stores in new jersey, delaware, and new york city. the lawsuit calls the wrongful arrest traumatic for the teen. claims it was as a result of misidentification by apple's facial recognition software. one of the many wrinkles in the story. the teenage says he lost his

driverrers permit with his photo. this may have been connected to his misidentification. the police carry out the arrest even though the warrant included photo after suspect who didn't resemble him at all. the lawsuit says an nypd detective was one who determined he had been wrongfully arrested viewing surveillance footage at the apple store, said the suspect did not look anything like him. they told him that it might have involved apple's facial recognition, that apple security tech identifies suspects of tech using facial-recognition technology. a lot more to come. a billion dollar suit against apple and then also against the security company, melissa. we'll be following up on the story as more details develop. meantime, back to you. melissa: thank you for that. apple spokesperson telling in gadget that the company does not use facial recognition in its

stores. gary and liz are back. that is really what it comes down to here is that the lawsuit is saying that apple uses facial recognition software in its stores without your knowledge. so when somebody comes in, in this case, uses your identity falsely they connected them, decided that was this guy. as a result, he had this, warrants out for his arrest all over the place, basically what they're claiming in a nutshell. you heard apple disputes that. but, liz, do these things as you hear about them, do they make people even more wary of looking at phone, plugging your face in, all of the different biometric that apple uses these days? >> i don't know what apple does in their stores. this seems like a really screwy story to me. how they connected this young man with these thefts is a mystery. i don't think anybody understands it. look i'm much more concerned about gross surveillance

capabilities that such as china is using with their muslim populations and other places overseas. i don't think this is something that people will be terribly concerned about. by the way for easter i bought those little stickers you put on the camera on various devices. i gave them to everyone in the family. maybe that was prescient. i don't know. melissa: gary, what do you think? is all of the biometric information that we are handing over to companies like apple regardless of this individual's story, is it too much at this point? are people going to start getting wary? >> well, look, i have been saying for quite a while, we hand them all our data, we do the facial recognition. they're going to take advantage of it. i've called facebook a data collecting monster. melissa: yeah. >> i'm not judge napolitano but i'm on record saying apple is not paying this guy a billion dollars. i'm not so sure they're going to be too worried. i'm not even sure there is a case there. maybe on security for

inconvenience. maybe they will give him some free iphones for his life. i don't know, this one looks a little bit spurious for lack of a better word. melissa: the bottom line you can't murder anybody and get away with it anymore. it is a shame. >> right. melissa: those days are gone. connell: those days are gone. here is a news alert. making his first public comments after the release of the mueller report, president trump's senior advisor, son-in-law, jared kushner says the russia investigation has done more damage to our democracy as he put it, at least, a couple of facebook ads. get to fox business network's edward lawrence live at the white house with details on that. edward. reporter: democrats are latching on to those comments there. a number of high-profile democrats are still calling for the impeachment of president donald trump. house speaker nancy pelosi is trying to back of off the party. she says they will investigate the president. based on mueller report, of

collusion and obstruction, case closed for them. jared kushner talking about his participation in the investigation here. listen. >> i think at this point i've done three house interviews. i did nine hours with the special counsel. if you look at my statement, from july, about 12 page statement explaining all these different things i think everything i said is now proven to be true and it has been very thoroughly investigated. reporter: there are a number of deadlines set by the democrats. first today, within the next hour, democrats at the house ways and means committee expecting six years of the president's tax returns. now the treasury department has missed one deadline related to this already. they needed to check the legality of it, but they're expecting within the next hour. former white house visor, security chief carl line saying he would not show up for a hearing today in front of the house oversight committee. he made that announcement in a letter late last night. they wanted to talk about secure clearances with him. the chairman of that committee already saying he will schedule

a vote for contempt. house judiciary committee issuing a subpoena for former white house lawyer don mcgahn. listen. >> bottom line is, don's a very smart lawyer. he already testified. the president has been open and transparent in the way those two previous presidents were not. so i expect him to come but i expect him to insist on having people behind him that can advise him as to when to answer a question and when a privilege might be appropriate. reporter: republicans telling democrats, be careful about continuing to go after the president as opposed to just governing the nation. back to you. connell: edward lawrence for us. thank you, edward. melissa: setting the stage for 2020, new speculation for joe biden's upcoming white house bid. why some critics say his presidential campaign may be clouded with confusion. our political panel weighing in. connell: mayor bill de blasio's pie-in-the-sky idea to stop

melissa: breaking news. shares of snap surging after hours. snapchat adding four million additional users in the first quarter. the company ceo saying it will launch 10 new original shows while renewing some of last season's programing. connell: there you go, 8%. to politics now. one more day, right? fox news confirming that former vice president joe biden will enter the race for the white house on thursday. pushing back a previously planned announcement for tomorrow. here to talk about it, a little bit with us, vince coglianese, the executive editor of "the daily caller." new heights communications president christie setzer. as this happens with all the anticipation when joe biden would get in, the talk since delayed it by a day, it won't be charlottesville, but a video, rally in pittsburgh after that. maybe there is confusion in his

camp. do you think the former vice president has its act together or should we be worried or should he be worried? >> we will see. up to this point there is not the tightest operation going on. i would say in his response, for example, to some of the me too allegations, that is a little overstated, they were not exactly me too allegations. put out a video that was widely received. he stepped over his message making a joke about it the next day. in the past he is known as a vigorous campaigner on other's behalf, on his own behalf, maybe not so much. there is all the anticipation around it. both because he is leading the polls right now, but also because he is inconsistent how he has performed in niece races in the past. we'll see. connell: gives us an actual candidate in the race that we can talk about. if you look at polling, biden 29, sanders 22.

the debate is his first day be the best way? five vice presidents since 1900 who gotten their party's nomination. there have been mixed results, if you look at that list. gore, bush, nixon, mondale, hoover. it doesn't necessarily guaranty you success. what do you make of joe biden right now as candidate for president? >> he is in a great position that comes to the polls. that is a product of name recognition. that he was obama's vice president. there is some nostalgia he will make a big splash when he gets in this week. he has had false starts. not a clear timeline to come in. he has a smaller window and the daggers are out for him. other democrats are trying to take him down. these allegations of him being creepy with women, his camp was blaming bernie's camp right away

for that. there are also allegations him taking racist positions in the past in his political career. connell: a long, long record. everything else in addition to being vice president. they will go after all of that. christie, bernie sanders is already well-known is allowed staying out, someone like mayor pete buttigieg to increase his name recognition. maybe a top tier legit candidate. one of the questions where he comes in on impeachment. that is also a place where democrats are split. bernie sanders says no, don't i will peach, talk about issues. many other candidates, mayor pete and others are supportive, castro, harris, elizabeth warren on the right side of your screen we know are supportive of impeachment. how do you think he will handle that. >> biden or sanders? connell: biden. >> i would suspect he is going to be in the lane that says no, don't impeach.

beat them at the ballot box. the lane if any that biden occupied up to this point, the lane we expect him to occupy is one appealing to moderate or older more established democrats. connell: but he really likes to go after trump at the same time. >> he certainly likes to go after trump, but always the person who always says, listen there is a lot of good republicans out there. i will not just paint everybody with a bad brush. i can see him saying that you're going to turn off a lot more moderates and even disaffected republicans if you immediately go down the impeachment route. there are very, very good arguments on both sides of that question but i see him being someone who says, no, don't -- connell: democrats are trying to keep the news of the associated, vince, with the mueller report in the news where some thing boeing as far as calling for impeachment would be calling too far. how do you think biden will play it as a final point? >> biden has been confused how to handle it. then he was calling

vice president mike pence as a decent buy but then apologized for that. i don't know he knows how to walk the line just yet. remember he has a long career. he saw what happened to bill clinton. all the push for bill clinton in the end. he was more popular than ever. economy was good. trump could get a windfall. connell: we have a official race with biden in it we think on thursday. good to see you. melissa: the measles crisis sweeping the nation. why you might be at risk or even your kids if you've been vaccinated. you could still be at risk. what you can do to protect your health. we'll tell you all about it coming up. plus a nation in mourning. isis claiming responsibility for the easter day massacre in sri lanka. the latest details next. ♪

dorsey, turns out was at the white house today and met with the president. let's get back to edward lawrence what we know about this meeting. edward? reporter: surprisingly was not on his schedule but the twitter ceo was here at the white house. he went into the oval office and met with the president face-to-face with some other twitter executives. what they talked about we don't know. the white house directing us to twitter to find a readout what is happening. any minute the president should be tweeting about the meeting. a meeting takes place. twitter, much of the conversation today in the market, as you know, connell. today here at the white house the president has been critical of twitter in the past for bias he said, perceived bias towards conservatives there, possibly that is one of the topics that the president brought up. we'll have to wait and see what was said in this conversation. connell: edward, we'll look at jack and @realdonaldtrump to get a little more on this. twitter up 15% on earnings. more on the story as we get it.

now this. >> we're going to introduce ledge to ban the glass and steel skyscrapers that have contributed so much to global warming. they have no place in our city or in our earth anymore. if a company wants to build a big skyscraper, they can use glass if they do all the other things needed to reduce emissions but putting up monuments to themselves, that harmed our earth and threatened our future, that will no longer be allowed in new york city. melissa: i mean, what is he talking about? mayor bill de blasio touting his plan for new york city's version of the green new deal. "new york post" out with a warning blasting the mayor for sending us back to the stone age. joining us to discuss this further is james freeman of "the wall street journal." he is also a fox news contributor. so james, be not fooled, like

usual, mayor bill de blasio is full of hot air and all kinds of other garbage. he talks about how he is going to ban the steel and glass buildings which are all the rage right now in new york but if you look closely at it, he is not banning them. he is just telling them he is going to fine them for building the buildings. so once again, he is trying to raise revenue by pretending to be about the environment. just like the congestion tax saying, oh, this is about congestion. no, it is about the fact that people in new york are so overtaxed that they have had everyone's left and they're falling short on revenue. instead of cutting their spending ways, they're dreaming up new ways to collect revenue. this ban is just a way to fine builders in new york city. >> good plan for everyone who thinks it is not expensive enough to build in new york city. i think it has other benefits. he obviously wants to get into the presidential mix. he has been out to iowa.

he wants to go back. and the bar has been set very high if you want to show you're an environmental extremist. obviously all the senate candidates running for president have backed the federal green new deal. turn the economy upside down, up to $90 trillion in spending over 10 years. so i think he sees this as a way to define himself as even more progressive to use the term than the other candidates in the race. melissa: what it does, it defines him as an idiot. because when you look at the buildings that are glass and steel, for example, the bank of america tower on 42nd street, it is platinum leed certified, which means they have done everything in the world to reduce their emissions and their carbon footprint, all that kind of stuff. i live in a building like that. it is painful. the water flow is low. the elevators are organized. all kinds of things going on to save energy everywhere. still they say that building would face a $2.5 million fine

right away. they're not even banning new construction. they're just collecting more revenue and trying to target the wealthy or building developers or new builders thinking no one will stand up for them because everybody hates rich people. >> yeah. it is all true. the -- melissa: especially the part about him being an idiot, right? you agree with that? >> give people the background. for leading edge of environmentalism windows are bad because they allow heat to escape during the winter and come in during the summer. makes it harder to cool. i think as you mentioned what mr. de blasio may not have been familiar with, that is why he kind of changed the details after the announcement was that these towers often seek these green seals of approval so the ones that are new, have the big glass and steel structure which all the customers want, also tend to have highly, highly efficient heating and cooling

systems to offset the fact they like to have windows which many people do. melissa: yeah. there you go. james, thank you. we solved that one. i hope he was watching. connell: i'm sure. melissa: i will send him a clip if he was not. connell: without a doubt. this case is one captivating much of the nation, involving elizabeth holmes, founder of blood testing startup, theranos getting a delay after setting the trial date after lawyers argue there is large amount of evidence. she is charged with lying to investors and she is back on july 1st to discuss a trial date. melissa: no black turtleneck. have you watched this? >> i will. don't yell at me. don't yell at me. don't call me the names you called de blasio. melissa: i would never -- she idolizes steve jobs, so she always wore the black turtleneck everywhere she went. connell: i will watch it.

melissa: crucial decision that come impact elections. 2020 census should ask people if they're legal citizens. fox news's doug mckelway outside of the supreme court with the latest. doug? port part a risky proposition to forecast how the high court will rule based on any one position based on oral arguments before

it. that said the high court's conservative majority seem to uphold the trump administration plan to include in the 2020 census, the question, are you a citizen of the united states of america that question had been included in every census from 1820 through 1950. the trump admin wants it back, allegedly enforce the voting rights back. the four liberal justice of court pummeled administration. justice sotomayor saying this is solution in search of a problem. elena kagan you can't read the record without sensing this need is con tried one. hundreds of immigrants protesters gathered outside to protest the plan, seeming unaware it is illegal for the census bureau to disclose or pun like any private information that identifies any individual or businesses. >> well, you don't have to be conspiracy theorist to be concerned that if that date is out there, it could pose a risk

to you. we've seen an administration is picking people up in sensitive places like courthouses, schools, going to the doctor's office. reporter: both sides in this debate acknowledge that if the question is included in the census, as many as 6.5 million people may not participate in the census. that translates into probable losses for democrats because the census determineses the number of electoral votes that every state has the number of congressional representatives and how federal fund are allocated. we do expect a decision sometime in the month of june. melissa, back to you. melissa: doug mckelway, thank you. connell: let's get to the judge on this, andrew napolitano senior judicial analyst, host of the "fox nation" "the liberty file." doug makes a couple key points in the reporting. conservative majority in the court, people reading between the lines of arguments today, looks to be inclined to rule in favor of the administration here. do you read it the same way?

>> yes. the challenge here is not to the constitutionality after the question, i've been arguing that the government can ask whatever questions it wants. connell: right. >> because you have the right to remain silent under constitution you don't have to answer. you only have to answer the total number of people in the household. that is all the constitution authorizes the government to ask. but that is not the precise issue. the precise issue is did secretary of commerce wilbur ross follow the rules and procedures when he added this question, which was not in the census in 2010. connell: they say the administration's ability to defend the voting rights act. >> law says the government can ask whatever questions are quote, necessary, close quote, to get an accurate count. the challengers say not only is this not necessary, it will make the count inaccurate because people will be reluctant to answer it. connell: seems, doug, said same thing, both side agree the most likely outcome of this, if the question is included on

citizenship there would be an undercount? >> yes. connell: argument in favor or argument from the administration it is worth it to get the information you need i suppose or -- >> i don't think the administration has demonstrated the necessity which is the standard under the statute. on other hand, i think the government and administration is going to win because of the way the oral argument went today. we're talking about this as you know, during the break. connell: yep. >> fear that harm will come from truthful answer may not be a rational fear but a fear a lot of people have it will induce silence. so it will give the government an undercount, which is inaccurate count of the as doug mckelway so nicely explained. there is cascading affect. it affects federal aid. affects the voting rights act. affects out many doj agents and federal prosecutors are assigned to certain area to say nothing about how congress, congressional districts are broken up. connell: we'll follow, come bang

to it when we have the ruling. other topic, lawyers representing actress lori loughlin and her husband are questioning that the court turn over evidence against them in the college admissions scandal. they want to see -- >> they have an absolute right to see it this is standard in all cases, particularly white-collar criminal cases n this case the government said, i've seen some of this, the parts that have been made public. connell: a lot of stuff. >> to call it voluminous is guilty of an understatement. talking about enough pages to fill a small pickup truck. that is eventually what they're going to get and what they have, their lawyers and their lawyers investigators will to through. government has to give it to them in timely manner so they have enough time to go through it before the trial. will there actually be a trial? connell: she looks like she will fight it. >> does she think she can get on witness stand persuade boston jurors she didn't know what she was doing? connell: the coach against them now, pleading guilty. >> yes.

connell: good to see you, judge. melissa. melissa: the measles crisis nearing a record in the u.s. vaccinated americans are still at risk according to cdc some adults who received the vaccine between 1963 and 1967 may no longer be protected from the virus. because when the vaccine first became available there were two versions and only one was effective. the cdc adding, when it added the double vaccine, when in doubt vaccinate, right. when it doubt vaccinate. if you don't know which one you got, you got a vaccine in that time period, it makes sense to go get it again. connell: that is scary. 1963 to 67. $10 million for critical information. how the state department is looking to break up terrorist group hezbollah. that's next. ♪
