6:03 pm
our country is thriving, our people are prospering and our future has never really ever looked better than it does right now. liz: let's bring in our next guest, the first female fighter pilot to fight in comb bat and command a fighter-squadron. senator martha mcsally from arizona. thanks for coming on. >> thanks for having me. liz: your reaction to the president's comments. hispanicss a major voting bloc. they went for bernie. president is gaining more hispanics on his side according to pew polling. what do you think? >> no surprise. people are being lifted out of poverty, more job opportunities. president trump was in arizona a few weeks ago. i was on the stage with him rallying. 26,000 people asked for tickets. 26% didn't vote in 2016. 18% were registered democrats. they're building an amazing coalition, based on the question, are you better off than you were four years ago?
6:04 pm
do you want things to keep going in this conservative populist direction with president trump and republican senate? i'm ground zero in that fight. i really see this tremendous coalition being built across all demographics, whether it is hispanic-americans, african-americans, you name it, it is pretty impressive. liz: something striking that hasn't really been reported. the president, even though he had no challenger in texas he got 1.9 million votes. that is more than joe biden, bernie sanders, bloomberg, elizabeth warren combined. think about that. >> republicans taking time off work because they wanted to make sure their enthusiasm was shown for president trump for continuing to have him serve as our commander-in-chief in the white house. this is a stark choice. even though there is still chaos on the left, looks, bernie and the squad, they have pulled this party so far left, it is still out of the mainstream, regardless who is at the top of the ticket. i think it will be rejected summarily in november but it es
6:05 pm
is going to be a fight. liz: let's pick up on the trends. joe biden a stunning comeback. won 10 out of 14 states. he was supposed to win every state in the south. he did by double digits. the african-american vote as we've been reporting for about a year now matters t was key to biden's victory. he is flawed. he is fragile. the president won those same states biden won. now it is a two-man race overall. 2/3 of the delegates remain to be allocated. where do you see this going? >> well, i'm not a political pundit but i don't think bernie sanders is going to, you know, quit easily. i think this is going to be a fight for a while. look, they are both a part of the democrat socialist party right now, regardless how you look at it. joe biden stood on stage, raised his hand, free health care for illegals. he has lurched left in order to capture the base of their party which is out of the mainstream.
6:06 pm
they will fight it out. the energy is still behind president trump. he is bidding a strong coalition. we got to make sure we keep the senate majority as well. a lot can help the next eight months. liz: eight of the next 11 contests are states that bernie did not win in 2016. bernie lost states like oklahoma and minnesota he won in 2016 t could be a brutal fight toward a contested convention. bernie even appears to have doubts. let ace listen to bernie sanders. >> no matter what happens, if this campaign and i don't know what will happen, but if it comes out to be a campaign in which we have one candidate who is standing up for the working class and the middle class, we're going to win that election. liz: you know, we also have news coming in. senate homeland security committee chair ron johnson told reporters today he will likely release an interim report within two months on his panel's probe into hunter biden's ties to
6:07 pm
burisma. your reaction to that? >> that doesn't surprise me. we have oversight roles. there are legitimate questions and i think people are generally tired of the old way that washington works to include the favoritism for family members and other things. that clearly most people look at that and say there was obviously at a minimum an appearance of, why did his son, you know, get that job for more money than the average american is being paid every single year? so these are legitimate questions, not political questions and i think people need to know those answers and in in our oversight role he appreciate the committee chairman looking into that. liz: they have been looking into this since 2017 should be noted. james carville thinks democrats should standard asking bernie sanders to drop out. watch this. >> i see democrats starting to ask sanders to look, just don't
6:08 pm
drag this thing out anymore than we have to. people want to get on to the general election. they want to get on to defeating donald trump and, i think sanders showing tonight made hardly any showing with african-americans most loyal constituency and most exciting new constituency, educated white woman. liz: there is pressure on elizabeth warren to drop out. she came in third in her home state of massachusetts. who would senator warren support, biden or bernie sanders? >> well you could, your guess is as good as mine. liz: right. >> this is a process. it is certainly messy. they are not unified except for their far left agenda. at the top of the ticket, regardless who it is there is lie that there even moderates. this is not your older sister's democrat party this is not the democrat party of 2016. think about this, right? "squad" and the left-wing in the house and rolled over nancy pelosi and forced the
6:09 pm
impeachment what we went through this is where their energy is. whoever is at the top of the ticket there will be a stark choice once they get through their process they're going through right now and we'reliz:s not your older sister's party. i not your parents party. we know bloomberg stopped his race. he spent more than half a billion bucks. only won american samoa. now he is backing biden. joe biden speech interrupted by anti-dairy protesters. watch this. >> where we come from -- >> let dairy die! let dairy die! [booing] let dairy die! let dairy die! [booing]
6:10 pm
>> let's go, joe! liz: i don't know if anyone noticed that, but simone sanders, a top biden official, simone sanders tackled the second protester. i don't know where the secret service was, but it was striking biden's speech was interrupted by protesters. final word, senator. >> not sure about that. i had a full day. didn't have time to watch democrat speeches. but anyway, we have a big important fight in front of us. like i said, don't let anybody fool you. there is not a moderate wing here. it is a hard left socialist lurch that they have taken. you know, don't let them try to cloak themselves. let's keep going with the agenda working with president trump to provide more opportunities for people, a strong economy, a secure border, rebuilt military, support for our veterans, everything we're doing. liz: senator, great to see you. come back soon. >> absolutely. liz: just ahead a federal judge,
6:11 pm
more how the judge is ramping up pressure on hillary clinton. we're digging into the case. it is over her use of a private email server. it was done while she was serving as secretary of state. new questions mounting just where, to whom the paper trail leads and why clinton may now be boxed into a corner. the judge in that case noting that the defense hillary has been using she can no longer rely on. the story up next. ♪. rks great for us! but not for your clients. that's why we're a fiduciary, obligated to put clients first. so, what do you provide? cookie cutter portfolios? nope. we tailor portfolios to our client's needs. but you do sell investments that earn you high commissions, right?

6:16 pm
confirmed cases. today there was 114 in all of china. so it has been a tremendous change there. it was in all of society effort to really make this happen but credit goes to the front line health care work that's have sacrificed so much to really change the trend of this virus in china. liz: chris, given a great reality check here. coronavirus has a death rate of 3 1/2%, but that is lower than sars around 10%, merz at 35%. the white house brought back, rather rolled back an fda rule dates back to the obama administration. let us let state-run labs do testing not approved yet by the fda. china is doing 1.6 million tests with day of results. that is what china is doing. your reaction? >> what we've seen in china is a public health response unprecedented in the history of man in terms of the scale. we saw a quarantine of over 50 million people. we've seen application of
6:17 pm
technologies that have never been used to insure contact tracing, to making sure they're tracking really the spread of the disease and making sure that they are addressing it in a timely fashion. we have never seen anything on this scale before. it has been tremendous. it has been effective. there was a lot of criticism about it but it came with great deal of sacrifice. the quarantines, our teams in and colleagues in wuhan have not left their apartment in six weeks this is tremendous sacrifice everybody had to step up to make work. liz: that is the issue, can the u.s. put up with quarantines? china cracked down. did major monitoring, got hundreds of millions of smartphones to find out where chinese were with potential to being exposed, directed resources to that. ii want to talk a little bit moe about what the w.h.o., world health organization found in china. 1.48% fatality rate, a lower fatality rate for people with no preexisting conditions. if you have preexisting heart
6:18 pm
disease, 13% fatality rate. do you see where i'm getting at? fatality is based on age and preexisting conditions. and the health care system. chris, i got to say, you know the media is comparing this to the great flu pandemic of 1918. they didn't even know it was the flu back then until 1933. we have antibiotics and anti-virals to stop things like pneumonia. they didn't have that back then. >> that's true. it is easy to let the hysteria get to you in all of the coverage. the fact we can contain it. if we can't contain it we can certainly have some degree of control. it is not something we need to panic about. we know what measures have to be taken to be effective in sponsoring to this and the biggest lesson we can learn from china everybody has to take personal responsibility for their own safety. take care of yourself, take care of your family, in turn you take care of community. liz: chris, you're great. i wish we had more time.

6:24 pm

promised free health care, free education. a lot of free things. all of a sudden the government was inside of their house. the problem with democrat party, letting that inside the party, that kind of thinking. they're fixated how to tax wealth instead of creating income and creating jobs. listen to joe biden here. >> but, guess what? if you're like me, tax will be raised not cut if you benefit the from that. liz: and bernie sanders wants to tax poor people at 29,000, 30,000. >> exactly. this is, freedom killing agenda. if you have less money in your pocket, you have less freedom to decide what you want to do to invest, where you want to go work. look at the job market, which is so amazing about this economy. millions of americans that are reentering the labor force. you have more freedom to get a better job. to get higher wages. there are more unemployed people than those out of work. if you look what the democrats
6:46 pm
are selling, at least they're kind of being honest about it. your taxes are going to go up. the government will be involved in every aspect of your life. we're promising free things to the world. guess what? everyone is going to pay for it, not just in high taxes but in our precious freedom. liz: yeah. we read the plans from elizabeth warren and bernie sanders. we study them. they want more power for the irs too. >> right. liz: we'll be on these stories. we'll have you back on. liz harrington, great to see you. >> thanks for having me. liz: the update next on the worst migrant crisis it is exploding now. it is about to hit europe. happening now, even more chaos at the turkey-greece border. why europe has a plan but did nothing to fix the problem after the same crisis exploded in 2015. this story next. because our way works great for us! but not for your clients.

6:50 pm
some people say that's ridiculous. i dress how i feel. yesterday i felt bold with boundless energy. this morning i woke up calm and unbreakable. tomorrow? who knows. age is just an illusion. how you show up for the world, that's what's real. what's your idea? i put it out there with a godaddy website. make the world you want. ♪. liz: okay. we've got a growing crisis happening right now. the eu breaking news, eu interior ministers met today to talk about what is going on with turkey and greece and the migrant crisis and the border there. this is potentially one of europe's worst catastrophes. it is happening now. it's worse than the 2015 migrant
6:51 pm
crisis. it is humanitarian crisis. people are getting killed at this border crisis right now, at the turkey-greek border. here is what is going on. happening now, greek authorities have been firing tear gas, also stun grenades. there are 25,000, potentially more, tens of thousands of migrants now trying to push across, from turkey into greece. turkey has opened its floodgates. it is home to 3.6 million refugees. turkey is saying you, europe, you have to deal with this. with me republican texas congressman brian babin. congressman, we have never seen anything like this. this is four times worse than what we saw four or five years ago. your reaction. >> it is four times worse than what we saw five years ago it is a very, very bad problem. quite frankly turkey needs to secure their border. they cannot open their border up and just start flooding hundreds
6:52 pm
of thousands, if not millions of syrian and afghan and other refugees from different countries in the eu quite frankly the eu has had a long, had five years to get their act together with some kind of a plan to do this. they have, they have yet to do it. and unfortunately president erdogan of turkey, all i can say about him with friend like him who needs enemies? he found himself embroiled in a situation that in northern syria and more and more refugees are coming into his country. he simply wants to siphon them out of the country into the eu's lap. there are several eu countries will not tolerate that anymore. greece is the backdoor of it and i don't blame them one second. liz: get viewers up to speed. turkish authorities reporting
6:53 pm
another person killed. potentially 10 wounded by fire coming from the greek side. we have got news reports coming in, quote, a new refugee crisis could break up the eu worse than 2015. 2015, congressman, a million refugees came into the eu. >> right. liz: it rocked germany. it threatened angela merkel's chancellorship. caused lasting fractures and splits between the eu block countries. now it is four times greater. >> on top of that, at this particular time we have the covid-19 virus, the wuhan coronavirus which is spreading around the world, this couldn't happen at a worse time. so turkey absolutely has got to rethink this, close their borders and it's quite apparent what erdogan is trying to do. and yet, let me say this. at the same time we have to secure our border as well because we have an open border
6:54 pm
on the southern border and, 1100 chinese nationals last year come in illegally into the country. that doesn't tell us how many that we did not catch. we have0 -- 70 nations around the world have the covid-19 virus. we need to republicans in congress and get our act together as well, keep americans safe and healthy. and same thing goes with the eu. liz: the president just now tweeting he is congratulating congress, agreeing to provide $8 billion to fight the coronavirus. the issue with the european broken system, they're still relying on a system that says migrants can get asylum in the first eu country they step foot in. that has stressed out to the max countries like greece, italy and spain, particularly greece. turkey is now, a nato ally.
6:55 pm
it is a geopolitical threat now to europe. that is what "the washington post" says. in other words what's going on in syria, with syria and russia attacking turkey's troops, turkey is saying open the floodgates. europe, you have to help out what is it going on with russia and syria. we'll open floodgates. send 14 million refugees in your territory. >> it is a terrible situation. erdogan and turkey is weaponizing a group of refugees. they have 3.6 million refugees in turkey that came out of syria and the civil war. but you know, the eu has paid turkey a lot of funding. they agreed to keep these refugees. now all of sudden things are not going quite so well with turk give's invasion and trying to meet meet with russians and syrian troops up there.
6:56 pm
it is terrible humanitarian crisis and it will get worse unless they start getting together. i was glad to hear the eu was meeting with turkey and erdogan. we're hoping they get their act together. liz: congressman seems like europe is saying we'll give turkey money. you turkey, take refugees. we'll give you a lot of money. now they're saying to greece, greece, you're to deal with turkey, we'll give you military hardware, troops, money, greece to deal with turkey now. is that the answer from europe. >> this is one of the big problems with the eu. one of the biggest reasons that the united king dom left the eu is because of the immigration policies and or lack thereof. and so this is very unfair to do to a, one of the border countries like greece where these people are going to be coming through, to leech them in the lurch like this. so, absolutely. you're exactly right. this is a real, real
6:57 pm
humanitarian crisis in the making. but i, you can hardly blame greece. you can hardly blame some of the other countries that don't want to be blamed with millions of people coming out of that region. we saw. we saw disasterous consequences five years ago. you have czechoslovakia, poland, hungary, they're pushing back on this. bigger countries in the eu like germany, rest of them, they better get their self, their act together. liz: instead they're doing policy and legislation, ad hoc own the fly. now greece just suspended processing asylum applications for a month. again the reform plan, would have allocated refugees among eu member countries, according to the country's economic strength and population
6:58 pm
we had hungary and poland pushing back about. i don't know how they fix this. what you think is going to happen? >> they need to work a deal with turkey, turkey is going to have to realize they've got themselves in a real quicksand and down in northern syria, we have about 900,000 displaced persons from northern syria. they are going to have to go somewhere. the whole thing, you can lay the blame on assad, you can play the blame on russia as well. but they have to light in that bed, there help bail them out. it's going to take a lot of diplomacy and a lot of people sitting town and accepting what may be a few things they may not like and hopefully for the eu's sake, these countries that are pushing back on these refugees, they saw what happened in france
6:59 pm
and germany, they don't want to repeat that in their countries so i can't blame them one fit. liz: what should be the trump administration's reaction to this crisis with turkey at the border with greece? we are seeing the administration and nato ally, what is your reaction? >> we can't be super pleased with what the president has been doing because he has stuck his thumb in several occasions. he purchased as 400 missile systems, which was against the sanctions that we had in place, they purchased back from prussia and now here they are, dealing with russia in a conflict in northern syria. i'm glad, it's a very convoluted complex situation that i think the administration is doing the very best they can. i'm hoping secretary of state pompeo and others can work this thing out.
7:00 pm
