"fox & friends" starts right now. >> good morning. it is monday, june 3. i'm ainsley earhardt. the white house is claiming it wasn't just conservatives targeted but liberals as well and karl rove is telling it like it is. >> if it is not political why are only conservative groups being targeted? name one. >> he says baloney. more of the faceoff coming up. >>steve: bill clinton raised eyebrows when he came in at the 11th inning to save mr. obama's reelection. now we know why. a secret deal was hatched so that mr. clinton would help mr. obama.
3:01 am
what will mr. obama do to the clinton family? we get details straight ahead. >>brian: last we saw ali camerota she was with the band. that was her dream to play the cow bell. here this morning -- she supposed to be here. >>steve: where is she? >>brian: she is not here. what happened? that story we have -- >>steve: took off with the band. hello? >>brian: "fox & friends" starts. ♪ ♪ >> we have to be honest here. anchoring the 5 a.m. show, and they're saying ainsley we need you to stick around and get downstairs to studio b because aly overslept this morning.
3:02 am
[snoring sound] >> we sent cameras to her bedroom. that's aly. >>steve: have you seen maria molina yet? >> she's here. >>steve: what's behind the curtain? hold on. >> did they find her? aly moved to connecticut recently, like a year ago or something. this morning we were all saying her husband's in trouble. she's going to be like we're moving back into the city. i can't be this far away from work. it is our biggest fear. >>brian: here's the problem. as you know, they had a five and a half hour marathon on saturday, four hours on sunday and the after the show show and postdates. this woman is worn out. >>steve: throw in that she looked like she wanted to join the band. >> throw in a few kids and a husband. >>steve: if and when she shows up you'll see her as
3:03 am
ainsley disappears. >> first we're going to tell you headlines. we start with a fox news alert. rescue crews are searching for a teenager who was literally swept over this waterfall. this happened at yosemite national park. the 19-year-old was swimming in the river when a strong current took him over that waterfall 594 feet. park employees are saying the teenager should not have been swimming there. new overnight, a massive 25,000 acre wildfire happened in california forcing 3,000 people out of their houses. the fire started just outside of a los angeles plant on thursday. it has already destroyed six houses and damaged 15 others. fire officials say high winds caused it to spread very quickly and they have only been able to contain 20% of the fire. today the trial begins for the former american soldier accused of leaking more than 700,000 classified military documents. army first class bradley manning is charged with a total of 22 counts of
3:04 am
espionage. the case, the largest classified documents leak in u.s. history. he is facing 154 years in prison. >> angelina jolie making a red carpet return in london. the oscar winning actress looked stunning at the premier of brad pitt's new movie "world war z." the event marked her first public appearance since revealing she underwent the double mastectomy. >> i feel great. i feel wonderful. i'm very grateful for all the support. i've been very happy to see the discussion about women's health expanded and that means the world to me. >> now because of her decision, she has less than 5% risk of getting cancer. those are your headlines. aly was supposed to read that. >>steve: but it was ainsley. >>brian: that was a good documentary. >>steve: it was good. that's why they're making a
3:05 am
second part. more bad news for the i.r.s. today. congress holding a hearing on things like $50 million, lavish conferences, dance party videos and the target of tea party groups. this as we watch the cupid dance. let's turn to kelly wright. >> beam me up. let me see if i can do this story in warped speed. the scandal at the internal revenue service of course will come under more scrutiny this week, particularly with the fact that there will be two more congressional hearings taking place right over my shoulder in the capitol building. lawmakers will have plenty to look into and in particular plenty to look at starting with videos of i.r.s. employees taking dance lessons or abging out scenes -- acting out scenes
3:06 am
from star trek at taxpayers's expense. the house oversight committee reported investigators from the treasury department will show the i.r.s. spent $50 million for 220 conferences over a two-year period from 2010 to 2012. >> the culture at the i.r.s. during this period of time was one that did not particularly care about whether they spent well the taxpayers' money. >> that is congressman darrell issa, chairman of the house oversight committee. he believes i.r.s. employees in cincinnati may have received their orders from washington that target conservative groups. issa provided skperpts -- excerpts of an interview with i.r.s. employees in cincinnati who refute the report that a few rogue employees are responsible. it goes on to report it is impossible saying one i.r.s. agent. as an agent, we are controlled by many, many people. we have to subcommittee many, many -- we have to submit many, many reports.
3:07 am
the chance of two agents being rogue and doing things like that could never happen. it was then asked of another employee did you think it was inappropriate about what happened in 2010? the employee replied yes. congressman elijah cummings calls issa's claims reckless stating -- quote -- "so far no witnesses who have appeared before the committee have identified any i.r.s. official in washington, d.c. who directed employees in cincinnati to use tea party or similar terms to screen applicants for extra scrutiny." he goes on to say steve, alisyn -- steve, ainsley and brian they have to find a bipartisan way to solve this so we can restore our public's trust in the i.r.s. >>steve: indeed, kelly
3:08 am
wright boldly going where no man has gone this hour. thank you very much, sir. those are the facts. and then yesterday on the talk shows, we had the spin. watch this. here you've got plus and rogue. plus is trying to make it so clear that this thing was not political. karl rove won't have any part of it. watch. >> there has been no suggestion, the independent -- the prosecutor looked at this -- excuse me -- the inspector general said there was no politics involved in it. no one has indicated at all that the white house is involved. the i.r.s. director was appointed under president bush, served under both presidents. this was not a political pursuit. >> baloney. if it was not political, why are only conservative groups being targeted? >> there are other groups -- >> name one. >> one liberal group had tea party or patriot in its name that it was targeted. >> not a single liberal
3:09 am
group has -- >> this was not an effort driven by the white house. it would be the dumbest political effort of all time. >> i didn't suggest it was being driven by the white house, but i do think -- >> do you think the people sitting in the cincinnati office -- >> i think people sitting in cincinnati, washington, d.c. listen to people like senator chuck schumer. when president obama goes out in 2008 -- 2010 and calls these groups -- quote -- "a threat to democracy," he's blowing the dog whistle. >>brian: david axle rod had almost the same thing as david plouffe to say. this is dumb. that would be telling the i.r.s. to do that. that clearly was the spin, but it's impossible. you have to suspend disbelief to think this wasn't a political agenda with this. and you have to suspend logic to think that some of these guys that are now on the record and women who
3:10 am
were doing this were just simply wildcatting it. >> especially when they're certainlying for tea party patriots -- when they're searching for tea party patriots. >>steve: darrell issa yesterday referred to jay carney as the white house's paid liar. >>brian: emergency crews will continue to go through flooded areas of oklahoma to search for missing victims killed in this weekend's tornadoes. the twister now claiming the lives of at least 13 people including young children and three veteran storm chasers. live from oklahoma. >> you can see some of the damage behind me. this airplane that was tossed around at the canadian valley technology center like it didn't weigh anything. i'll show you the front of the tepbl center. this -- of the technology center. this brick building was ripped apart. this was the tornado that claimed the lives of three veteran storm chasers. tim samaras, his son paul
3:11 am
samaras and carl young. they had been featured on the discovery channel program "storm chasers." it is hard to understand how an experienced guy and a guy with a reputation of being cautious was caught by this tornado. quite possibly because this ef-3 made an unpredictable left turn and quite possibly because he got caught in the traffic jam as people were trying to outrun these tornadoes. >> i honestly believe that he saved lives because of some of the things and the tools he deployed and developed for storm chasing i think the biggest thing that he could have done was he gave his life for others. >> oklahoma governor mary fallin says she expects quite possibly the number of dead will rise as searches are underway in the flood waters. seven people are missing. we know as a result of this storm, a terribly sad story about a family trying to
3:12 am
seek shelter in a storm drain and a four-year-old boy was pulled away by the rising flood waters. >>steve: thank you. >> oklahoma, enough already; right? so much. second tornado in like the last week, week and a half. you were saying it's very close to where the other tornado -- >>steve: close to moore, oklahoma. straight ahead on this monday morning, bill clinton came in at the 11th i think to save president obama's reelection. now we know why. the secret deals they cut. plus what clinton really thinks of obama just revealed. >> last we saw aly, she was playing with lone star on that stage last week on friday. she's supposed to be on the curvy couch this morning. what happened to aly? stick around because she was spotted i'm being told.

3:17 am
romney and will be speaking at the retreat. he joins us live in new york. good morning. why is mitt romney choosing now to come back out in public? >> i think the republicans invested $1 billion putting him in a position of leadership, and i think he needs to exert that leadership and try to influence public policy. >>steve: in what way? >> i think we need policies that will help grow our economy and return us to the innovation and risk taking that made us as successful as we are. i think that agenda has gotten lost in the aftermath of the financial crisis when the solution has been more and more government spending. >>steve: sure. are the three days i'm back and i'm going to start talking? >> i think part of the three days is to introduce key politicians to his kedo senators. i think one of the ways mitt will help going forward is to help politicians raise money. >>steve: in addition to mr. romney we've got a graphic that shows some of the other power hitters that are going to be there. paul ryan, rand paul, chris christie will be in

3:19 am
raced to capitalize on that. that opportunity doesn't exist today. today our infrastructure is seven times bigger. whatever effect infrastructure will have it will be less than a third of the size it was in the 1950's. i think the terms are exaggerated. >>steve: let's say barack obama called you, ed, and said what's one thing tkoeubgd to turn things around -- one thing i could do to turn things around today. what would you say? >> lower taxes. >>steve: he's not going to go with that. >> i don't think he's going to go with much of the things i am proposing. we have transition from a manufacturing-based economy. we need entrepreneurs to leave their jobs and try to start new companies. and you need an environment that encourages risk-taking, not discourages risk-taking. i think we have moved in exactly the opposite direction. we're consuming more of our economy with government spending. we're threatening people with higher and higher taxes. go back to bill clinton, for example. he did raise taxes, but he
3:20 am
also cut government spending to 18% of g.d.p. and he used the increase in taxs to pay down debt. that reduces the threat of future tax increases as opposed to what we're doing today which is greatly increased. we have raised taxes and not raised enough taxes to cover spending. >>steve: i have a feeling we're going to hear things like that coming out of park city, utah, in a few days. thanks for coming by. meanwhile, a fox business alert. new uncertainty here at home sending global stocks tumbling. what that means for you and your 401(k) when we come back. president obama claims victory in the war on terror. >> today the core of al qaeda in afghanistan and pakistan is on the path to defeat. >>steve: but would the people fighting that war agree? general jack keane joins us next with the military side of the story. you're watching your

deaths now under investigation. brian? >>brian: ainsley. president obama claims victory in the war on terror. >> today the core of al qaeda in afghanistan and pakistan is on the path to defeat. their remaining operatives spend more time thinking about their own safety than plotting against us. they did not direct the attacks in benghazi. they have not carried out a successful attack on our homeland since 9/11. >>brian: our next guest says this is not true. and al qaeda is standing as planned. joining us is general jack keane. do you have a problem with the president's statement? >> i do because the evidence clearly does not support it. the administration deserves credit for their relentless attack on al qaeda leadership in pakistan. but the fact of the matter is al qaeda's strategic objective has always been to dominate and control
3:26 am
muslim countries in the regablish a cal caliphate. they are expanding their geographic reach as we speak. they're back into iraq. they are the largest growing organization in syria. they are obviously in libya and east benghazi. they are in northern africa. they are on the move, and their geographic reach is rather significant now by comparison to where it was four or five years ago. >>brian: as much as as it is great to kill bin laden, it is a bad message when benghazi killers are allowed to run free; correct? and the boston bombing goes unanswered. >> it is absolutely outrageous that after an ambassador was killed, a consolate was burned to the ground and a c.i.a. base was forced to evacuate that we did not target al sharia who we knew did that. that organization should be decimated by now eight to nine months later. we have not even put a glove on them. we have brought nobody to
3:27 am
justice. justice should have been killing and capturing as opposed to a criminal investigation. >>brian: now we have a situation where the president wants to turn the page, but in reality he should not be. and it's kind of scary he's not. i saw a yemeni leader quoted as saying boston has shown us america is vulnerable and our security is in tatters. that is the message they have about us. >> yeah. that's sad commentary. the fact of the matter is to achieve their dominance of the region, the al qaeda believes their number-one objective is to drive the united states out of the region. that's what 9/11 2001 is about and the subsequent attacks to attack us. here, we are disengaging from the region. the administration's policy is to voluntarily disengage from the region, which is fulfilling the objective the al qaeda has so they can eventually control and dominate. that's what we're at risk.
3:28 am
as they control and dominate, sanctuaries are established, they have freedom in those sanctuaries to plan not only attacks in the region but into europe and also into the united states. this is very dangerous what's taking place. >>brian: it's a lot of pressure on the c.i.a., f.b.i. as well as guys fighting in the field. general jack keane, thanks so much. >> good talking to you, brian, as always. >>brian: 32 minutes before the top of the hour. president obama promised it would not happen but it just did. stuart varney explains. and he'll begin to walk now. how his stafrs -- staffers -- go ahead, stuart. how his other people are cashing in big time. last we saw aly, she was standing with the band. she seemed so happy. but there was a wildness in her eyes. i then said to myself is that woman coming back? could she possibly be taking her cow bell on the road? stick around. we'll find out if she has we'll find out if she has gone with lone star.

survivors. >>alisyn: president obama made a secret deal to support hillary clinton if she runs for president in 2016? it's payback for the support reportedly that her husband gave president obama in 2012. this according to a new paper back book by ed klein. initially president obama was not interested in bill clinton upstaging him during the presidential campaign, but as the summer wore on and democratic enthusiasm waned, chief political activist david axlerod convinced president obama that he needed bill clinton's mojo. the deal was struck. clinton would give the key nominating speech at the convention and president obama would endorse hillary clinton as his successor according to ed klein. >>steve: in the paper back version of his book "the amateur." we saw the speech. >> in longhand.
3:39 am
it was lockhart and another clinton legend. >>steve: here is what bill clinton said about barack obama. he said i've heard more from bush asking for advice than i have from obama. i have no relationship with the president. none whatsoever. obama doesn't know how to be president. he doesn't know how the world works. he's incompetent. he's an amateur. also after the election, apparently it sound like barack obama was changing his mind and thought i'm not going to endorse anybody in the next presidential round. bill clinton went ballistic. that's when they called steve kroft and they had that love-in. >> remember in 2009 president obama issued a new ethics order. you leave this administration, you can't become a lobbyist to this administration. that was an attempt to stop the revolving door of officials becoming -- >>steve: how is that working out? >> it's not gone so well.
3:40 am
in particular, there's a lot of lobbying for and against the pipeline project. four big names, former white house officials are now lobbying against the pipeline. and one, the former white house communications, anita dunn, she is lobbying for the pipeline. all are making significant money. i don't know exactly how much. those four former officials against it, one is for it, despite the president's pledge in 2009 that no former members of this administration will become lobbyists. that is not just the pipeline. there are many other issues where former officials are now highly paid consultants and lobbyists on one side or the other. >>brian: also the media seems to be giving them a pass on this. >> let me quote eric schultz, a white house spokesman. our goal has been to reduce the influence of special interests which we have done more than any administration in history.
3:41 am
>>alisyn: are they lobbying the white house? >> they are lobbying directly the administration on policy matters. for example, on the pipeline there are four officials -- bill burton, jim pap and paul tewes and stephanie kata, they are now consultants working for companies that oppose the pipeline. they will use their influence on the pipeline debate and they're making money out of it. >>steve: who's going to win? >> who's going to win? they're going to stay down as long as they possibly can. >>brian: at a thousand bucks an hour. same thing andrew would he mow is doing here. >> the bottom line is that we have not gotten rid of influence peddling in washington, d.c. if you look at the i.r.s. scandal it's gone further because you now have the machinery of government intimidating the president's opponents. >>brian: varney and company coming up at 9:20. you're going to be on.

3:48 am
u.s. colleges will graduate 40,000 students with computer sciences degrees but the u.s. economy will need 120,000 jobs. it sound like a great field to go in but what are they missing? >> they are missing the opportunity to study science technology, engineering and math both at the high school and college level. we have not put enough of an emphasis on this in our education system. but i'm not waiting on the education system. i don't believe any student needs to. between the ability to find information free on-line, there are low-cost services and classes available, our students can make a difference and empower themselves by gaining this knowledge for themselves. >>alisyn: when a recent college graduates comes to meet with you and they say please hire me, kirk, what do you want to hear from them? what do you want to know they can do? >> a great question. i'm looking for that college graduate to understand technology's implication on business.
3:49 am
pubmattic is providing technology to allow producers to transform their business. college graduates need to understand the language of today and how technology transformed that language. if you google some of the topics, if you start reading some of the local press following shows like yours, this is readily available information for any college student to lean into. additionally, there are a lot of services. i'm the chairperson of a charity called camp interactive. we target high school students who are at risk and provide them with coding skills in after-school programs. it is a program called summercamp.org. we provide internships for high school students in this field. we're working with city university of new york. this will launch the first technology course focus on covering this gap for

>> steve: obamacare promised to reduce insurance. that's not case. california, insurance cost for a 25-year-old is on average, $92. when obamacare kicks in, that could shoot up to $205. for a 40-year-old, it would climb from $121 to $261. >> brian: let's expand on that with a doctor who is a congressman, bill cassidy. >> thank you. >> brian: great to see you. so does this prediction in rate hike something that you foresaw? >> absolutely. whenever you have the government involved with more rules and regulations, inevitably cost will go up. market forces lower. government forces increase. >> brian: aren't more people going to have insurance so those people that weren't paying you to begin with will be on the books? >> we hope so. on the other hand, there is going to be certainly an effect that is the average family has to pay this much more for their insurance, they're not going to get it.
3:55 am
sure, the government may tell them to do so, but at some point if you can't afford it, you can't do it. >> steve: your side has been saying look, this is not going to be what it was advertised and now that's turning out to be true. now we've got this irs scandal and what you're trying to do is you're trying to limit the irs impact when it comes to obamacare. >> yeah. so if your viewers don't know, the obamacare requires thousands of irs agents to implement the law. >> steve: 16,000? >> sounds like a good number. bad number. >> steve: but accurate. >> accurate number. they're going to go through the small business woman's books to make sure she has the number of employees she claims and adequate insurance. that's scary when you see what the irs has been doing with their political targeting. >> brian: do you feel as though you would be able to make progress because of what the irs is going through right now? >> yeah. i think both the rate shock and irs scandal is going to cause some concerns on those who previously were not. someone like me who has been seeing patients who lack
3:56 am
insurance for the last 20 years, i've seen these problems. i knew it was coming. now others i think will be aware, hopefully the president won't be too proud to make some changes. >> steve: you just repeatedly voted to repeal obamacare again. of course, with this president, that's not going to happen 'cause he would veto that. but what can you do? >> so one thing you have to do is continue to point this out. if you notice, there was a big kind of mainstream media push that the rates in california were actually lower. until you looked at it and you saw no, there were 100% higher. it takes the sort of calling out in order to acquaint the families watching this that your policies are going up, have been going up, and unless we do something, they will continue to go up. >> brian: we'll look to see if the people out there are as alert and tuned in to the irs, what they've been going through and where they're going and the role they play with obamacare. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> steve: later in the show we're going to hear from a texas doctor who is refusing to accept insurance all together. he adopted a pay as you go model. i think you pay ten bucks and you see a doctor.

4:02 am
a.m. so i guess i took back an hour. >> steve: maybe. >> brian: but you're here and you're happy. >> alisyn: i have news headlines including a fox news alert. rescue crews are searching for a teen-ager who was swept over a waterfall. the 19-year-old was swimming in a river when a strong current took him over the waterfall. look at that. 594 feet tall. park employees are saying the teen should not have been and new overnight, los angeles under siege, a 25,000-acre wildfire burning six homes to the ground and damaging 15 others. more than 3,000 people are being forced out of their homes as the fire continues to close in. the fire started thursday, but it is only 20% contained at this hour. and today the trial begins for the soldier accused of leaking more than 700,000 classified military documents. army first class bradley manning is charged with a total of 22 counts of espionage.

4:04 am
holder survives. tom brokaw doesn't know and even some people in the west wing say he's got to go. he's making us look bad. >> brian: anonymously. what do you think? >> it's a tough situation for the president. such an important position and obviously some snakes have been made and being mistakes and i see it now, too. the liberal people that have been defending everybody and everything, i think a lot of this has to do with ap, when they start has beening into ap, that was incredible. and all of a sudden, i am seeing a difference and a change by the liberal media. it's amazing. i haven't seen it and all of a sudden, i think you're all seeing it very evidently. but this is one of the things that they're talking about and it's a tough situation i think for the president. >> alisyn: it is. donald, if you had somebody on your staff who was a close friend of yours in a top position who suddenly people were criticizing, what do you do about that? >> you want to try and stick up for the person. you want to go with that person. you can't be disloyal. the president is being very loyal, i would say, up 'til this
4:05 am
point. and that person probably knows plenty about the president, too. so we'll have to see how that comes out. but he's been loyal up until this point, but people that you would least expect, whether it's tom brokaw or anybody else, are saying you have to make a change. so we'll see what happens. it is a very tough position for the president. >> brian: bob woodward came out yesterday and here is what he said about the president, what he should do. >> you would lump all these irs, benghazi and this together and what you've got is a feeling that no one is coming clean, that we aren't getting straight talk. and this goes to the president obama, he's got to find a way to unravel this. we live in an age of distrust. i think it's more severe now. he has to come, find some way to clean this up and say, this is what happened. this is what it means. so people will say, ah, remember at the beginning of his
4:06 am
administration he got -- a mistake, senator daschle. barak obama as president came out and said, i screwed up. if that's happened, we need to hear it again. >> brian: we haven't heard that since. should he now? >> well, oftentimes it's good when you make a mistake to apologize. i'm not a big believer in apologizing. but i like to try not to make too many mistake in all fairness. but oftentimes, and i see it all the time, where people apologize. sometimes i think people apologize publicly too much. i see them apologizing for everything and i watch and i say why are they doing that? but in this case, something is going to have to happen fairly quickly. i don't know whether he keeps him or doesn't. but something is going to happen. >> steve: the problem, donald, is washington -- nothing is going to get done -- the president's agenda is completely dead in the water. >> nothing is getting done anyway. regardless of this. you have a senate, you have a congress that's just deadlocked on everything.
4:07 am
nothing is getting done. this is a real mess for the country and then you read the front page of the "new york times." i saw you alluding to it where china is reaping rewards from the iraq oil boom of the we're reaping nothing. if you read that, it's interesting because we're supplying the fifth fleet, so that you keep nice safety around there so they can get the oil out. think of it, they had nothing to do with the iraq war, nothing to do whatsoever and they're taking more oil out than anybody at any time ever dreamt of taking. they're building sections of the country. we're doing nothing except we spent $1.5 trillion to blow up iraq. so this is, to me, that's a scandal that is unbelievable. >> alisyn: for a long time, china sometimes dubious business practices -- >> i understand china and i do business with a lot of chinese and i understand china very well and they're very smart and very tough and i'm not knocking
4:08 am
china. i'm knocking our leadership. how can they allow this to happen? we spend $1.5 trillion. we lose thousands of lives. we destroy a country essentially 'cause now, i mean, it was always iran and iraq and they were equal and nothing would ever happen because it was sort of like a borrowed line. that was it. now we've so weakened one because the next step will be iran with respect to iraq. which will be even worse. china is in there taking out all the oil. we're getting nothing. they are taking out massive numbers. you look at the numbers they're doing, now they're setting up airline services so they can get all their people over there. but they're taking out massive amounts of oil and we get nothing, except we do have our fifth fleet. i think it's very nice of us, we have our fifth fleet over there making sure the waters are nice and calm. >> steve: right. according to the "new york times," it sounds like the chinese are trying to get a big chunk of the oil business from exxon and a lot of people have exxon in their 401(k). but --
4:09 am
>> no, no, they're going to take it away from exxon. looks like exxon will be thrown out like puppy dogs and take it away from exxon and by the way, afghanistan, nobody thought in terms of afghanistan. nobody knew how rich afghanistan was in terms of minerals. we're fighting in afghanistan, they're on the other side of the mountain taking out all the minerals. >> brian: they're providing their own security. real quick, that's because this president wanted nothing to do with iraq. he doesn't even call up their leadership. we have absolutely no leverage with them. >> look, iraq is a whole story. we should have never been there. we should have -- you know i've said it 1,000 times, i said, if we're there, we shouldn't have been there. if we're there, take the oil. take the oil. at least pay back, at a minimum, pay back, take the oil. guess what? china is taking the oil. but they didn't have to fight. >> alisyn: donald, i'm sure you remember the moment during the democratic convention in 2012 when bill clinton came out and sort of stole the limelight and
4:10 am
everybody -- democrats, look at this moment where he bows to president obama and they have this big hug and we now know a little bit more about the back story behind this. according to ed klein who wrote a book, the paperback reveals that there was a deal hatched between bill clinton and the obama campaign that if president obama endorses hillary clinton and supports her run in 2016, bill clinton would do this very passionate, enthusiastic speech for president obama during this convention. your thoughts? >> i wouldn't be surprised if that happened. i mean, deals have been made politically, in all fairness to obama and bill clinton. deals have been made for thousands of years politically. but i wouldn't be surprised if that happened at all and i think frankly, the republican also have to get very smart and they're going to have to choose the right person because otherwise hillary will get it and she will win easily. the republicans have a long way to go. they have to get their act
4:11 am
together. >> brian: so do you believe the story says that president obama wanted to back out of the deal and bill clinton -- >> steve: double crossed. >> alisyn: after he won reelection. >> brian: then bill clinton went crazy and obama said caved and said let's do an interview. they did the interview where he basically said how much they like each other. >> wow. that's amazing. well, you know. that's something. nobody knows if those stories are true or not. nobody is confirming it. but i will say this, bill clinton, who is a friend of mine. bill clinton did a fantastic job for president obama. >> steve: he did. >> i really think he carried him over the top. that was an amazing job he did. >> brian: remember when he said, even i couldn't have fixed this economy? >> amazing. he did an amazing job and president obama owes bill clinton a lot. i can't see him backing out of that. i can't imagine that he would back out of that. but it would look to me like unless something happens, and lots of bad things can happen, let's face it. we're dealing with a complex life. lots of bad things, including
4:12 am
health and other things. but assuming things stay as is, hillary will be your nominee and the republicans are going to have a hard time unless they choose the right person and they have to choose the right person. >> steve: how would that make mr. obama look if joe biden wants it and he's been a good first lieutenant and yet, sorry, joe. i'm going to go with hillary. since you are friends with the clintons, would hillary even want barak obama's endorsement given the fact that right now in his administration, there are are scandals left and right? >> you have to still get the endorsement and you would want the endorsement and that would bring the democrats together because there is a certain group for obama and there was a certain group -- you know what was interesting is during that campaign, that was the single most vicious campaign that i've ever seen. hillary against obama. that was far more vicious, i think, than romney, if you want to know the truth. people forget that. but he accused clintons of racism and bill clinton, i never thought i'd see it because, you
4:13 am
know, i know him well and i like him a lot. i never thought i'd see him backing obama. i never thought i was going to see it because nobody ever took the charge of racism and as you know, almost everybody is accused by the obama administration of being a racist. i never -- even bill clinton. i never thought i'd see him backing obama because of that charge. >> steve: but he did. he gave that great speech and he'll are going oh, bill clinton is fantastic. >> he really turned it around. obama was not doing well, steve. he was really doing poorly when clinton went out and endorsed him. not only endorsed out, went out and really campaigned for him. >> steve: you've got an empire to run, so you better get going. donald trump, thank you. >> thank you very much. >> brian: coming up, why have one high school valedictorian? why can't you have 21? one school handing out the title to everyone who worked hard. is that fair? >> alisyn: no. you're our valedictorian. >> brian: thank you. the whole crew is. >> alisyn: and get ready to feel the burn. one of the most effective sun

4:18 am
ridiculous red tape, nicky neeley. hi. >> hi, how are you? >> alisyn: why are these very effective european sun screens being blocked from coming here? >> because of the f.d.a. as you mentioned, it's ridiculous red tape here. there are multiple uva filters that have been proven more effective than what we have access to in the united states. many of them, there are eight that, have been before the f.d.a. for up to ten years that we've been waiting on and they haven't been approved. literally they're being used everywhere else in the world but america. >> alisyn: is it because these ingredients are dangerous? >> they are not dangerous. they've been proven safe. as you mentioned, they've been used in europe for years. asia, south africa, south america, australia, all over the place. a member of the american academy of dermatology has said america is an island. this is the only country where it's being held up. it's bizarre. >> alisyn: let's move on and talk about how now airlines are going to have to list the real
4:19 am
price of the airline ticket because first they advertise a low price and then tack on, as you know, fees and taxes and the price shoots up. this sounds like a good thing. >> right. it's funny because i think you go to the grocery store, everything else, you don't have to list fees. but when you buy an airline ticket, it has to be the final price that the consumer pays, including all the taxes, all the fees, 9-11 fees, airport fees, this, that, because the government has deemed it too confusing for consumers to actually break those prices out. and if an airline wants to break it out, it must be in substantially smaller font. this tried to go up to the supreme court, the supreme court rejected it. but you think what about twitter or facebook? because you can't adjust the fonts on those platforms? nope, we can't understand it. >> alisyn: what's going on with hair braiding in iowa? >> so in iowa, to be a hair braider, african hair braider, you have to obtain a full

4:45 am
it's important to meet with these people. that picture was generate bid beirut television station. one of these guys they were claiming has been reported dead. it's just an attempt to discredit -- >> steve: did you not meet with terrorists? >> no. of course not. general, head of the rebel forces who is a great leader and i met with battalion commanders in turkey and then in syria and i can assure you, we know who they are. they've been fighting for over two years. they are patriots and yes, there are extremist flowing into the country. that's because we've done nothing to help the rebels succeed. and yes, they have some light weapons, but they need antitank and antiair weapons. and thanks to hezbollah, russians, iranian, now assad has the initiative on his side. >> steve: what's the recipe to fixing it? >> no fly zone and take out their air assets.
4:46 am
you can do that by cratering runways and moving the patriot missile batteries. this bologna about how we have to send aircraft. we don't. the israelis just showed that they can attack targets that they want in near damascus which need to be targeted. >> steve: speak willing of the israelis, it's a real threat to them. >> it's spilled into lebanon, we're fight not guilty lebanon. jordan cannot blast. the king of jordan cannot last under this present scenario. 10% of their population are refugees. can you imagine 10% of our population? >> brian: you have spent quality time with the president over the last ten days. you could call him up and you could say listen, i got to tell but the rebels. two-thirds we can trust. a third we can't and i'll tell where you to go with them. what happens when you said it? they crossed a red line and used chemical weapons. you see it's a direct line to the oval office. what do you think? >> i think i have raised the issue with the president. >> brian: what does he say? >> the same concerns that we see
4:47 am
publicly, that we don't want to get involved and escalation, et cetera. you know, americans are war weary. no doubt about that. but if we stand by and watch this continue, and it spreads, it's going to become a regional war and we can effect things beneficiariy and if we can't, then i can assure you that americans are wasting hundreds of billions of their tax dollars on national defense. >> steve: let's talk about something that you hold near and dear to your heart. when you call people up to capitol hill and they testify in front of you under oath, they've got to tell the truth. if they don't, that's a problem. it does look to many as if eric holder went up to capitol hill and lied. what's going to happen to him? >> in my view, my opinion, he better explain those contradictions as quickly as possible and again, he's going to have to ask himself, is he helping the president of the united states who he works for or is he harming through all
4:48 am
this? by the way, when you have 175 meetings at the white house and when asked about it, the former head of the irs said, oh, we went to the easter egg roll. >> brian: once a year. >> the other person in charge takes the fifth. >> steve: not good. >> brian: i found that to be an insult to the american people when he sat there and said, i don't know. easter egg roll, and he was smug and condescending. has the senate and the house lost respect from these people? they used to come up and have a feeling of awe almost. >> the senate hasn't because the democrats are in majority and you don't see any hearings on the senate side, do you? >> brian: none. >> it's really -- you just say go take a shower. i mean, it's so unsavory for the person in charge of all this because the irs scares people more than any other branch of government, understandably.
4:49 am
we need to get to the bottom of it. >> steve: tell you what, let's get to the bottom of something else. you're talking about the unsavoriness of the irs. take a look at this, your son got married this weekend. congratulations! >> thank you. it was a lovely young lady he married. there should be a shot. that's my daughter and son. megyn and jimmy. there is jack and his bride, renee and my wife, cindy. he's a navy pilot. i'm very proud of him. >> steve: just like that movie. >> brian: what's megyn doing there? >> having fun. >> steve: was there a wedding crasher? >> several of jack's navy buddies who behaved in typical naval aviator fashion. >> steve: was there a fellow there named mitt romney crashing? >> mitt came. i'm very grateful. he was wonderful, it was wonderful for him to come to the dinner the night before. you can say what you like about his campaign, he's one of the more decent and fine men that i've ever had the opportunity of being associated with.
4:50 am
>> brian: i think -- i'm going to say about mitt romney, would have been a great president. >> i think so. i really do. and maybe if the president was really committed, he might call mitt to help out in some of the -- help -- one thing mitt would be great at, reducing the size of government and putting efficiency in government. you just saw this film of the irs parties. you know, that's about the 20th time we've seen one of these organizations doing the same thing. >> steve: i tell you what, it's always a pleasure. thank you very much for dropping by. that man over there will validate your parking. >> brian: thank you. great to see you. >> thoracicallies. >> brian: coming up next, these the star of "jesse," the hit show on disney. >> steve: first on this day in 1990, vogue by madonna number one song in america. ♪ hey, hey, look what mommy is having. mommy's having a french fry.

5:02 am
>> steve: yes. he appeared to be wearing some metallic neck tie. if you look carefully at it, it almost looks metallic. joining us live from our nation's capitol with more on what you referred to, bret, as the twizzler tie. look at that, here is bret baier. hello. >> alisyn: explain yourself. >> good morning. yeah. it wasn't me. it was my staff said this looks like a twizzler tie. somebody tweeted it and then it was a barrage of tweets saying yeah, it does look like twizzlers. then the twizzler company sent the staff a bunch of twizzlers. and so i guess that's good marketing on their part. >> steve: why was your neck tie so shiny? >> it was a poor choice. [ laughter ] >> brian: we all make decisions in life. >> it just hit the light the wrong way. >> steve: oh, sure, blame the light guy. >> it wasn't be making a reappearance. >> steve: you should auction that off for charity or something. that's a good idea. >> alisyn: speak of poor
5:03 am
judgment, let's talk about what's been going on on capitol hill for the past week or so, probably more, about the irs scandal. what's going to be happening this week as these new interviews come out about whether the irs really was targeting conservative groups? >> yeah. i think this is the focus, is whether it goes right to washington. you had darrell issa, the committee on the house oversight, the chairman of the house oversight saying he has interviews that says it goes right back to washington. today you have the acting commissioner of the irs, danny werfel testifying. tomorrow you have conservative groups who were targeted testifying and then thursday, they get into this additional problem for the irs, which is the spending on these conferences, some 50 million over two years for 220 conferences and some star trek videos and dance lessons. >> brian: but i'm sure you realize how off the hook it seems that the chairman darrell
5:04 am
issa was this weekend. he's always been a little bit reserved. he called jay carney basically a hired liar. he went out and said clearly this whole irs targeting started from washington. why do you think he took off as governor? >> that's a great question, brian. i think there is a sense of frustration about all of these investigations and kind of getting the run around and perhaps that showed itself over the weekend with what darrell issa said. but boy, he was putting the heat on in some of the language he used, especially about jay carney. >> brian: don't you think it's relatessed to the irs workers he talked to in cincinnati that seemed to be saying that they felt like victims and thrown under the bus as if two rogue agents were able to set policy and them saying of course we weren't setting policy. we were following it. >> sure. and he's talked to these agents. i'll point out the ranking
5:05 am
member says that none of the agents links it directly to person in washington and there is still a pushback about the direct link to washington. i think that will be all laid out this week as he kind of makes the case that the reason lois lerner took the fifth is because there is connections to the top. >> alisyn: just to be clear, i mean, thus far darrell issa has only released excerpts from these closed door meetings that he says he had with these irs agents in cincinnati, but they do say they were taking -- according to these excerpts -- direction from eo headquarters, meaning the exempt organization at headquarters in washington, d.c., and as you said, elijah cummings said where are the full transcripts? we can't know anything until they come out. hopefully we'll have more information within the next 24 hours. >> exactly. they also point out that it would be, these agents say, at least in the excerpts we've seen, that it would be impossible for them to be rogue
5:06 am
separately, two separate agents because of all the reports and all of the different data they have to put up through the hierarchy of the irs. they say it would be pretty unique for two rogue irs agents to be doing the same thing with the same guidelines. >> steve: sure. meanwhile, we've got a little interplay, we want to show you and our audience right now and this is one of those times when you've got one guy on one side and another guy on the other side and it looks like they're coming that close to sock each other. >> brian: michael should be introducing this. >> chris wallace is here. >> steve: here is david plouffe trying to say that this was not political. karl rove won't buy it. >> there has been no suggestion, the independent -- the prosecutor -- excuse me, the inspector general said there was no politics involved in this. no one has indicated at all that the white house is involved.
5:07 am
the irs director was appointed under president bush served under both presidents, attested -- this was not a political pursuit? >> bologna. >> if it was not political, then why are only conservative groups being targeted? >> there were liberal groups targeted. >> really? name one. one liberal group had tea party or patriot in its name was targeted. not a single liberal group was targeted. >> this was not an effort driven by the white house. it would be the dumbest political effort of all time. >> i didn't suggest it was being driven by the white house, but i do think when the president -- >> people said the cincinnati office -- >> no no, i think people sitting in these cities listen to people like senator max baucus, senator chuck schumer, president obama, when president obama goes out in 2010 and calls these groups, quote, a threat to democracy, he's blowing the dog whistle.
5:08 am
>> steve: bret, what do you think about that suggestion that it was these agents who are taking their cues from senators and even the president himself? >> yeah. i think it's going to be all put out in this committee this week and you'll see more of these interviews and you'll get more of a sense of what these agents are saying themselves. i think that's the best sense of what cincinnati is saying about this thing. >> brian: where do you think eric holder looks now, people like tom brokaw have came out and said they don't know how he can survive. unnamed high ranking sources within the white house to the "new york times" said they kind of wish he would leave. where do you think he's heading, if anywhere? >> the going whisper up on capitol hill is that he was going to ride this thing out. but when the "new york times" cites sources inside the west wing, saying they wish he would leave, that raises eyebrows in this town and other places. talking to people, when you get a new f.b.i. director and james comey shouldn't have any problems getting confirmed --
5:09 am
you could have eric holder step down then. it's possible, but that "new york times" piece over the weekend definitely got some attention. >> brian: do you mind one tough question before we let go? >> sure. >> brian: how could tiger play so bad for so many straight days? you're a great golfer. you might even be better than tiger woods. >> yeah, right. >> brian: why was he so bad this weekend at the memorial? >> that is a good question. that's a tough one. but the final nine holes, i think he had some crazy amount of birdies. he's getting ready for the u.s. open. who knows? you have bad weeks, brian. >> brian: right. >> steve: bret, next time you talk -- >> brian: you want to brush that off? >> steve: i was going to say, next time you do golf talk, you got to use the golf voice. >> applause. >> steve: try to use that for an hour between 6 and 7:00 p.m. eastern. >> alisyn: your tie is very handsome today, bret. >> thank you very much. >> brian: nobody defended me. >> alisyn: thanks so much. >> steve: see you guys.
5:10 am

deployed and developed for storm chasing. i think the biggest thing that he could have done was he gave his life for others. >> alisyn: the officials believe they may have gotten caught in traffic as people tried to escape the twister. today the trial begins for the former american soldier accused of leaking more than 700,000 classified military documents. army first class bradley manning says he leaked the material because he wanted the public to know how the american military was killing people in the wars in iraq and afghanistan. even osama bin laden saw the material manning released. navy seals found it during the raid of his compound. manning is facing 154 years in prison. angelina jolie making a red carpet return in london. the actress appearing at the premiere of brad pitt's new movie "world war z." the event marking her first public appearance since revealing she underwent a double mastectomy. >> i feel great. i feel wonderful and i'm very, very grateful for all the

5:17 am
unravel this. we live in an age of distrust. i think it's more severe now. >> alisyn: forget our country's budget deficit for a moment. have the president and his administration created a trust deficit as bob woodward was talking about with all the scandals surrounding dc now? joining us to discuss this is peter johnson, jr. >> yes. it's really bad. with each new cut, each new subpoena, each refusal to accept a subpoena, each kind of dribble, each fifth amendment taken before congress, each new grand jury that will be empaneled, new irs investigation, there is a new trust deficit in this country where people -- a lot of them who don't trust the government to begin with are saying, what is this go about? why can't the president tell us where etches on the night of benghazi as he got ready to go to las vegas? why can't we know why the irs commissioner -- let's look at that chart, went 157 times to the white house, when hillary
5:18 am
clinton and mr. holder and other high government officials, including mr. geithner went a third or a fourth of those times, the irs is supposed to be nonpolitical. americans are now saying, we don't trust this government or mr. holder to investigate itself. there is a new poll out that says that more than almost 80% of the american people believe there should be a special prosecutor, a special counsel empaneled to look at the irs scandal to why patriot and tea party organization were being investigated. >> alisyn: it's an interesting strategy by the white house to just say nothing, to say nothing, to have their representative say, i don't know, i don't know. i don't know. i don't remember. i plead the fifth. i can't talk about this. >> they do more than that. we saw mr. must have on with karl rove on this defense that there was nothing political about it. it's a joke on its face, if not a lie. they go underground on benghazi and four people died and we still don't know what happened.
5:19 am
>> alisyn: on that, the administration would say they have released thousands of e-mails and documents and they believe the republicans are just going on a fishing expedition. that's what they're arguing. >> i understand their argument. darrell issa disagrees. he says you didn't give us everything and the state department agreed to cooperate and then didn't. now it had to subpoena the state department to get records. the state department says, we're going to look at that. they didn't say we're going to provide that. so day after day, press conference after press conference, testimony after testimony, the president is missing in action on this. george bush in 2003 with the valerie plain c.i.a. scandal said to his white house staff, say everything. tell everything. cooperate 100%. we haven't heard that same kind of strong statement from the president of the united states. so americans are looking for it minute by minute, blow on all three of these scandals, but they're also looking for the president to reaffirm

doctors who have stopped accepting health insurance all together. >> steve: they say it's the only way to continue providing quality service at affordable prices. dr. john rodriguez is one of those physicians. he launched his own direct pay clinic in san antonio and that's where he joins us from. looks like he's dressed and going off to work as soon as he's done with us. so doctor rodriguez, the way this works, when they hear this, they'll wish they had a guy like you nearby -- you pay $25 a month to the doctor and the group and then just $10 per visit. and that, you say, is actually profitable for you. >> yeah. it is. really, at the end of the day when you take the middleman out and get more of a direct relationship with your patients, the cost comes down dramatically. as a physician, i love what i do, even more so now 'cause i can spend more time with our patients, more quality time. we have much more of an impact on their health when it comes to weight loss, their diabetes, all these diseases that we just have
5:26 am
a hard time dealing with. now i can deal with that at a much lower cost. >> brian: what you're saying is, we join you, like you would a club. so if i want you as doctor, are you out recruiting would be patients? >> yeah. what we do is we go to small businesses, small business owners that don't have any health care for their employees and actually do contracts with them and take care of their employees and as well as individuals. somebody that does their own little side job and doesn't really work for anyone, we also take care of them. but yes. small membership fee. anyone is included. any preexisting conditions, anything like that, we'll take you. we want to take care of patients here in san antonio and provide good care. >> steve: sure. i'm sure there are people watching and think, okay. where is the downfall? if i'm out of town, dr. rodriguez, let's say you are there in san antonio. i'm visiting my san antonio in tampa. i get sick. who do i go to then? >> yeah. the first thing i want our patients to do is call us 'cause
5:27 am
a lot of what we deal with actually are minor emergencies that we could probably take care of over the phone. so a lot of that, that nicety that comes along with a membership, these patients love that. so when they get the sniffles or maybe a sinus infection, they don't have to run to the doctor all the time. >> brian: why did it come to this where you had to reconfigure the calculus? >> i've been in practice 17 years. i've seen the dwindling of reimbursements from insurance and medicare. as a primary care doctor, the stake has been in our hearts for years now. trying to revitalize that arena and say look, let's go to a more direct pay towards patients taking care of them, cutting out the middle man, you bring the cost down tremendously. we're trying to develop this model and bring it outside of san antonio, open up more clinics, 'cause we think it works. we think it's going to revitalize primary care for sure and get more excitement generated. >> steve: it's a novel idea and we're glad to see it's work. we'll check back in a couple of

5:36 am
his mom, bernadette hernandez, was hospitalized in honolulu after having a heart attack, while in critical condition, she had an aneurysm. he credited his mother with introducing him to music as a boy. she was a hula dancer and a singer. she was just 55 years old. >> brian: political bombshell, president obama made a secret deal to support hillary clinton when she runs for president in 2016. it's pay back for the support her husband gave him in 2012. this according to a book by ed klein. initially president obama was not interested in bill upstaging him during the presidential campaign. but as democratic enthusiasm waned, david axelrod convinced the president he needed bill's mojo and she's slang for -- that's slang for energy. so the deal cass struck. clinton would give the key nominating speech and obama would endorse hillary as successor. then the whole thing ticked off mr. clinton. he reportedly said i have no relationship with the president.... none whatsoever.
5:37 am
obama doesn't know how to be president, one dot again. he doesn't know how the world works, dot. he's incompetent. >> steve: you sound like morse code, dot, dot, dot. >> alisyn: you have a lot of mojo. >> brian: thank you. >> alisyn: what happened to madonna's face? a new picture has a lot of people raising their eyebrows. >> brian: she could if she would. >> alisyn: take a look at the difference here. material girl has insisted before she has not had plastic surgery, but said she would not rule it out. i don't think she said recently she would not have plastic surgery. >> steve: all right. maybe in the '80s she said that. >> steve: emergency crews will continue to comb flooded areas of oklahoma today to search for missing victims killed in this weekend's tornadoes. the twister now claiming the lives of at least 13 people, including young children and three veteran storm chasers. mike tobin is joining us now from el reno with the latest. good morning to you, mike. >> good morning, steve. this is one more example of the
5:38 am
destruction left behind by the tornado. this is a canadian valley technology center. what they're look at really seems to be an example of the pressure inside the building being greater the pressure outside when the tornado rolled through. this brick and cinder block wall, just blew right out as the tornado came through here. the death toll is expected to rise. you mentioned that it's up to 13 now. but you have the search crews out in the flood waters right now looking for more victims. there are six people missing at this moment. governor mary fallin has been out in the area and commented on the strength of the people of oklahoma who have endured this one-two punch of deadly storms. >> once again we've seen that resilient, oklahoma strong spirit rise up again. it's been hard to handle, this magnitude of disaster throughout the state. but we'll recover. we've just seen people spring to action just like they did a couple weeks ago in moore.
5:39 am
>> three veteran storm chasers were killed by the ef-3 tornado that touched down here. tim samaras, his son, paul, and carl young. they were experienced and known for being cautious. the question is how did they get caught by this tornado? it's quite possible that the tornado made an unexpected turn and got them. it's also possible that they got caught in that traffic jam of people who were trying to flee on i-40 and get ahead of the storm. back to you in new york. >> alisyn: we just don't have enough information yet about what happened with them. mike, thanks so much for the update. >> steve: all right. maria molina outside with a look at the weather and it looks like it could be a rough day again across the nation's heartland. >> that's right. we're talk being a brand-new storm system that will be impacting the center of the country with a threat for severe storms not just today, but even as we head into tomorrow, wednesday and thursday. so another several day severe weather event expected, from texas into south dakota, danging winds, large hail and tornadoes will be possible. take a look at tomorrow. oklahoma city, you could be

5:47 am
you're putting stuff on because you want to get paid. but lois lerner, the woman at the center of the irs scandal does not have to get dressed today because she has decided to keep her paycheck and decided to take her suspension with pay at taxpayers' expense. a lois lerner used to run the tax exempt division at the irs. why was she not forced to resign? >> that's a very good question. i think it's interesting that president obama was able to get in touch with steve miller, the former head of the irs commissioner and say look, you got to go. and he resigned. he did so three weeks before he was going to leave anyway. i don't know why that was able to happen and yet, lois lerner is one of this person's underlings is still on the job. i woke up this morning to the sound of the alarm clock. she's not and making $3,000 a year more than a u.s. senator. >> brian: when president bush was president and valerie plumb investigation was happening, he order everyone to cooperate. nobody takes the fifth. that never came down from the
5:48 am
president and she did take the fifth and she is still getting paid. >> she took the fifth, still getting paid, she's kicking back, relaxing. she might not be awake yet. she's making 177,000 a year. that's four times more than the average american makes. >> brian: what did you conclude from this, that she either has something she's -- she could say to make everybody look bad or is this a lack of leadership? >> i think it's both. i think that she may have something to say in terms of people at the irs higher up who knew about this, people at treasury, what did people at the white house know? what did obama know? she might be able to answer those questions. so a good way to keep her calm and happy is pay her $177,000 not to work. >> brian: unless there is a deal to be cut with lois lerner to get her to talk to talk about who gave geraldo rivera marching orders, if anybody, to do what she did in cincinnati that spread from washington. >> i think what the house government oversight committee ought to do is give her use immunity, which means anything she says cannot be used against her in terms of prosecution, then she can not plead the fifth. maybe there is a simple
5:49 am
explanation. maybe she can tell us who the actual culprits are behind this. >> brian: between the irs and benghazi hearings, this should be one heck of a week. >> it should be. it's one scandal after another. i think someone raised a theory that the white house may be putting forth one after another so we can't focus very long on any of them. try to keep your eye on the ball as it's juggling in front of you. >> brian: that would be the all-time high in terms of a strategy because who would want a bunch of scandals? thanks so much. always love reading your column over at the post and everywhere else. 11 minutes before the top of the hour. up next, an effort to help america's war heros transition from the battlefield to the boardroom. finding great jobs for our nation's greatest vets. that story coming up. let's toss up to martha mccallum and tell us what's happening on "america's newsroom." >> good morning. it is a big morning. new developments in the irs scandals, new evidence that the irs directive to target conservatives may have come from
