a new poll from real clear politics shows the president getting a 42.5 approval rating compared to mayor ford's rating of 47%. well, "fox and friends" starts right now. >> good morning. it's tuesday, january 21st. i'm elizabeth hasselbeck. the hunt is on for a black widow homicide bomber on the loose in sochi. this morning, u.s. warships are in russia ready to act. are the olympics safe for americans? meanwhile, quote, my language should have been tighter? this morning the democrat running for governor of texas is correcting the record about her life story. it was really a great story. turns out not exactly true. yours is all true, steve. >> so far. >> and take a look at this video. this probably wasn't the kind of competition the surfers wanted.

dolphin, shark? you make the call at home. "fox and friends" starts now. i hate to talk about the olympics, you know, because we still have to get through our olympics, which is the super bowl. but again, it's in the news. if you watch the sunday shows yesterday -- on sunday, excuse me. it's already tuesday. part of the subplot was among all these terror experts and intelligence committees, they're saying, look out for sochi, russia. we're really concerned about the lack of security and lack of transparency among russian security experts, who seem to have that cold-war mentality when it comes to us. >> fox news has also found out that air naval assets, including two naval ships will be available in the black sea.

certainly ready to provide aid should there be a need to possibly evacuate when it comes time. they're looking right now for apparently up to four women. >> four women. >> tied to the black widow -- or white widow, she's actually called both interchangeably at times. >> well, she is a widow. they have been circulating at hotels in the sochi area and the airport as well. that woman's picture, she is 22 years old. and she is the widow of a militant who was killed in a police shoot out. she's doubly dangerous because her husband was killed and she would like to avenge his death at the hands of the police. they feel that she has already arrived in sochi as of last week. inside vladimir putin's ring of steel. so one expert said that the security climate inside is the most dangerous threatened environment that we've ever seen for the olympics. so people are saying, now, wait

a minute, see you've got at least one homicide bomber that we know of who's probably inside. it could be four. it could be ten. who knows? is it safe for americans? >> right, i mean, the pentagon's statement comes out, right, that they're going to up the ante in terms of what is available for americans and the safety of all, really, especially athletes and families there. the day after a video came out with threats that, you know, a special present could be expected coming to athletes and putin and all those there in sochi for the olympics. certainly we've heard the bombings that have taken place. >> they think those guys did the train station. >> the actual video message that came across, believed to be directly linked to those individuals. >> there's a georgetown professor, a security expert, was quoted yesterday saying the russians would be lucky to escape this olympics without some type of terror attack getting through. here's the message. we have a surprise package for

you, those men in the video said, and those tourists that will come to you for them will have a surprise. this will be our revenge. in case you want to know about the region, they gave us the boston bombers. >> one of those guys went over there and trained a little bit. that's still the islamic extremist mindset, only their target is russia. their secondary target would be us. >> sure. there's a french snowboarder competing in the winter games. is he worried? the answer is yes. he says, sochi is located in a crazy war zone. it's in the middle of all these countries that want to kill russia. i just know we're going to be a target. the question is, all right, this threat assessment is there's somebody there who wants to kill people. why go? i mean, why go? sure, there's national pride involved for a lot of people, and there are hundreds of millions of dollars at stake with tv rights and stuff like that. but still, it doesn't sound

safe. >> i have an idea. i mean, the president of the united states has made it clear he's upset about vladimir putin's stand when it comes to same-sex marriage and same-sex rights. why doesn't the president use that same anger and that same dig in your heels attitude and increase the communication when it comes to security or we're going to have to think twice about sending our athletes. right now we only have 40 fbi guys going. everybody's saying there's a lack of cooperation between the countries because russia, for the most part, the analysts have revealed they're insecure about the entire process and it's national pride preventing them from opening up. >> or is it a half-hearted approach of what we're actually dealing with? "the new yorker" article that came out highlighted specifically what the president thought when it came to terrorism. some have said casually on the side it's like he's playing a game of taboo and can't even say the word. he came out saying, you know, in terms of al qaeda that this is -- the exact quote here, it's a jayvee team, puts on a lakers

uniform that doesn't make them kobe bryant. i think there is a distinction between the capacity and the reach of a bin laden. i mean, is this a half-hearted approach? is it not examining what terrorists are actually capable of? >> sure, and for the president to -- you know, he continues to parse his words. well, you know, that wasn't core al qaeda. that's the jayvee al qaeda. if you didn't see it last night, charles hammer was on "special report." he did an excellent job reminding all of us, and in particular the president, that al qaeda started out as something small, something that it is right now, and people need to remember it. here's the doctor. >> the shocking demonstration of his strategic shallowness. you know, it's the example of it's not the lakers.

the whole strategy of al qaeda as explained by osama bin laden was to establish regional and local insurgencies to attack the arab states who they saw as acting in the interest of the infidels, starting with saudi arabia. the whole idea was local insurgencies with a global perspective. i think obama still to this day after half a decade doesn't understand at all who we are and who he is up against in the war on terrorism. >> it should be labeled islamic extremists. you could look at the boston bombers as jayvee. but do the people who lost their limbs feel that way? the underwear bomber. he has a chance to go train. how many people would have died in that plane had that jayvee member who isn't kobe bryant blown himself up?

>> or when does it qualify as something varsity according to the administration. we've seen when things like this are taken lightly, namely bengha benghazi, when security isn't vi provided or taken seriously enough. i don't think the american people are willing to deal with a situation that comes as a result of underscoring the ability of extremism. >> right. so here's the question on facebook and twitter. is the president right? is there a major difference between jayvee and varsity and we should focus on varsity? >> and to your point talking about the boston bombers, you know, wait a minute, we had the nsa apparatus up and running, recording all the phone calls, the metadata. how exactly did those billions of dollars miss those guys? one of them, the guy who trained in the caucasus, had his own facebook page talking about how he wanted to blow up people. how did we miss that? in the meantime, he's spying on

all of us by keeping our data. >> let's get to some headlines. >> hey, guys. filling in for heather this morning. nice to be here. let me tell you what happened overnight. just moments ago, a lockdown was actually lifted at the widener university in pennsylvania after a student was shot. the student was inside his car in a parking lot at the athletic center. overnight canines were used to search for the suspect. at this point, police are still looking through surveillance video. the victim is in critical condition, and it's still unclear what spark the the shooting. the university says classes will resume this morning. and a huge cement truck speeds out of control, crashing into a house leaving a driver dead. this happened in the bronx in new york. the man hit several cars before ramming into a three-story house, leaving a gaping hole in the wall. a mother and her two sons were inside at the time.

>> the way the truck entered the front of the house, that's our living room. they were in the same spot, but she said she heard the truck hit and she felt the house shake and they ran to the back. she knew something hit. >> the driver losing control because of a medical issue. olympic blade runner oscar pistorius is reportedly making a deal with the parents of his dead girlfriend. the out-of-court settlement is around $200,000. according to sources, the parents of reeva steenkamp are under financial strain. pistorius pleaded not guilty to murder, claiming he thought that reeva was an intruder when he shot and killed her in their home in south africa. former president george h.w. bush getting his game on. look at that. he was spotted sitting front row at a duke basketball game, even paying a visit to the players locker room after the game. this makes him the first former president to watch a duke basketball game at the college's arena.

duke won over north carolina state 95-60. and those are your headlines. >> yeah, it was 25 years of coach k. he looks great. >> he does. and he was good luck. they won. >> there you go. all right. thank you. >> duke rarely, rarely wins. so this is big news. coming up, a democratic congresswoman calling income inequality the biggest threat to our country, even comparing it to slavery. what she's knnot telling you is she's a millionaire. stuart varney reacts to that. and new york city's liberal mayor wants to raise taxes to an all-time high. meanwhile, city staffers are playing cards on your pay. good job! still runnng in the morning? yeah. getting your vegebles every day?

well, since the president has started his second term, the left-wing base has made ending income inequality a top priority. >> there are times when our country is confronted with a crisis that poses an existential threat to our nation and our way of life. and congress needs to stand up and act. the test of our time is inequality. it's not too much to say that inequality threatens the continued existence of the middle class in america. and even the american dream itself. >> okay. that was democratic congresswoman rosa delauro on the house floor. what she doesn't mention is the fact that while she's talking about income inequality, she's worth up to $20 million. >> that's not fair. >> here to comment on this and

more is stuart varney, celebrating his fourth year as host of "varney and company." >> this is after the fourth year, so we should move on. >> okay. get to it. >> let's talk about the staff inequality, how much each of your staff members are getting paid. until then, let's focus on what's going on with inequality when it comes to the threat on our economy. does she have a point? >> no, she does not have a point. income inequality, the income gap, put it like that, has been rising for about four decades. the gap has been widening. there are all kinds of factors g of the income gap. ms. delauro there is staking out the democrats' turf for this election year. she's saying income inequality is going to be the issue which we run on in 2014. there's a problem with that. not only is she an all-time millionairess herself, but the obama administration has presided over the most vigorous widening of the income gap of any recent presidency.

between 2009 and 2012, the top 1% of income earners in the obama years took 95% of all the extra income earned in america. 95% went to the top 1%. >> right. >> he now says inequality, that's the big problem. that's threatening america. so are obama's policies a threat to america? look at that. 95%. the top 1% in the year 2009 to 2012, their income went up 31%. the other 99%, their income went up 0.4%. >> so how is their narrative -- how can they run with this narrative when the facts don't back it up? >> it's pure politics. beat up on the rich. it's all their fault. we will set things straight. even though the gap has widened during the obama years. >> right, and the part that makes it all politics, and that's why we're hearing a number of democrats talk about income inequality and the rich are getting richer.

although, the poor don't get poorer because the rich are richer. that's been proven. what it comes down to is this is their agenda. instead of the number one topic people are talking about, obamacare, they want to distract people. they want to say, don't look at obamacare. let's look at how people are getting screwed and not making a minimum wage. >> they're stoking anger and division at the rich. look at those rich people running away with our money, leaving us behind. >> she seems like an unlikely spokesperson for that. >> yes, but the democrats in general are saying that, and the president in particular. >> and income inequality is just a fact of capitalism. it's always going to happen. the question is, do you have a path to prosperity available for people to pursue? is that path there? that's all you can ask for, an opportunity to be successful, not a guarantee. >> that's provided by growth. economic growth. you give me 4%, 5%, 6%, that lifts all boats. the president has not given us

growth. he's given us tax the rich and trap the poor in welfare. that has contributed to the widening of the income gap. it is an outrage. >> we're going to hear more on this on "varney and company" at 9:20. >> yeah, you are. >> and apparently stuart don't like being lectured by a millionaire democratic congresswoman. >> no, i don't. >> thank you, sir. up next on the rundown, thousands of u.s. soldiers gave their life to liberate iraq, but now al qaeda has the weapons to take it down. our next guest, a former navy s.e.a.l. who fought for that freedom, joins us live. and take a look at this video. this probably wasn't the kind of competition these surfers wanted. yikes. >> it's shark week. >> we need a navy s.e.a.l. to help us with that. farmer: hello, i'm an idaho potato farmer.

that are huge and advanced and frankly enough to occupy baghdad. so is it a real possibility? what's the threat to america and our obligation if any? we have a former navy s.e.a.l., the author of "damn few: the making of the modern s.e.a.l. warrior." you were there a few times. now the action is back there. the killing is resumed there. what are your thoughts? >> you know, i think the operators on the ground, the folks that worked in that part of the region know what we did in our window of time, that small window of time when we operated there. we taught that host nation and the local military units to be able to fight this type of fight. hard to teach them the will. we'll see what they do moving forward. >> and the reason they say that this is happening again is because the shia-led government has done nothing but alienate the sunnis in that region. >> and the focus of the u.s. military, particularly at our

level, was really the ground troops. it was the xs and os of how to prosecute targets and manage the battle space. it becomes senior leadership and political leadership that's going to be the will to move that country forward. >> it seems the president was intimating in his recent article in "the new yorker" that there's a difference between the core al qaeda and the bin laden and the al qaeda that are jayvee. here's the quote. if you put the jayvee teams in lakers uniforms, that doesn't mean they're kobe bryant. what are your thoughts? were you going against the jayvee. >> it's interesting to play with words. i know every varsity player usually started at jayvee. even if they were at that level, they're your future top performers. i don't think a good competitor, and we feel ourselves that way on the battlefield, thinks of their opponent that way. >> i hear that the shia government is not even wanted in that region by the tribesmen there who don't want al qaeda there, so they're beginning to give arms to the non-al qaeda

tribesmen to out the terrorist group in that area. is that going to be an effective strategy? >> this is the complexity of these problems. you have tribalism in some of its most basic forms running through what we see as a political structure. so when those worlds collide, you have a lot of issues. >> it's also said by one of the iraqi leaders that america has a moral obligation to not abandon iraq now. john kerry says we'll do everything short of putting troops in there. what do you think our obligation is? >> i mean, again, it's one of those things that you wonder how far american reach and our stewardship of what we hope is as best a free world as we can make it can go. and we spent a good amount of time and cost of blood and money in that part of world, gave them a step into hopefully a brighter future. it's theirs to take it the rest of the way. we can't be everywhere at one time. >> true. what are your thoughts that you fought so hard and had so much

success and it's having so much trouble now? >> you know, it's difficult to watch in the sense that you see teammates that didn't come home or didn't come home alive fighting for that type of engagement. that being said, as a warrior, if you hung your hat on, you know, the long run, you'd be in a tough line of work. you wouldn't have the spirit. >> so what you guys did, you showed america didn't want the oil, didn't want the dominance, didn't want the colony. we showed them how to fight and vote. basically your sense is you're proud of what you did. you're proud of what you accomplished. >> 100%. conventional forces up through special operation forces, unbelievable performance on the battlefield. we got them ready. it's theirs to run with. >> congratulations on the book. thanks so much for giving back to the country. it's ca thanks a lot. three minutes now before the bottom of the hour. coming up, it's one of the classic movie lines of all time. >> show me the money! jerry, you better yell. show me the money!

it turns out that davis was 21 when she got divorced, lived in a mobile home for a few months, and her second husband paid for her final two years of college and that harvard education. davis responding this morning saying, quote, my language should be tighter. i'm learning about using broader, looser language. i need to be more focused on the detail. taxpayer dollars hard at work or not? well, the "the new york post" is reporting that staffers for bill de blasio are not working, and instead watching netflix and playing card games while waiting for their new placements. while they're doing nothing, they're still collecting pay. and they're not forgetful. old people just have too much information in their heads. new research finds older brains are a little slower because of all the knowledge that they have

mid-atlantic all the way up to parts of eastern massachusetts. significant snowfall accumulation. in philadelphia, we could be looking at a foot of snow. new york city, 6 to 10 inches. that wind is going to be gusting up to 40 miles per hour at times as well. so very dangerous conditions on the roadways and of course flights already canceled across parts of the east. let's head back inside. >> all right, maria. thank you very much. looks like another day tomorrow when you'll tune in to see who made it to work. >> thanks, maria. well, he's the real-life inspiration between jerry mcguire. >> here it is. show me the money. >> show me the money. >> i need to feel you, jerry. >> show me the money! >> jerry, you better yell. >> show me the money! show me the money! >> and he showed a lot of athletes the money during his legendary career as a sports agent. after a fall from grace, which

he chronicled in his book a few years ago, lee steinberg walked away from it all. now he's back. he's got a brand new book, a boy, and now he has some stories to tell. here's the author of "the agent," lee steinberg. welcome back to the couch. >> pleasure. >> good to see you. >> this is certainly apropos to have you here right now going into the super bowl. we want to hear all about the book, "the agent," which is fascinating. walks us through your life. let's talk seahawks for a second. richard sherman. he had, like, a major burst of energy post game, went after one of his teammates. what was your take on his reaction there? >> you know, richard sherman is a very bright stanford grad who got good grades there. he planned this. he knew this moment would allow him to be branded. if you think of it, it's a functional equivalent of miley

cyrus' twerk. outrageous behavior, but at the end of the day he becomes a branded figure and goes right into the super bowl. >> but he's the punch line. >> so is miley cyrus to a lot of older people. >> so a good move or bad move? >> if what he's looking for is endorsements and a profile, it's a good move. >> he went out to say, you know, crabtree hit me at the end. i went to say good game and he grabbed my face mask. he said some things earlier to justify it when he was calmed down. when a player finishes a game like that, should he have more decorum? >> oh, absolutely. and they do. the truth is, they play a lot of games. they're used to coming off the field and having some courtesy. he knew what he was doing. he was trying to brand himself. we're about to see the hugest delegation of press that you ever find in one place, the super bowl. and they're all going to be here. and who are they going to be

writing about? richard sherman. >> absolutely. the big question is, and you put on your -- you know, i watched a million games hat just a second. don't mess up your hair. who's going to win? >> everyone wants denver, so i'm going to root for seattle. >> you love the underdog. >> i do. i think they're a team of destiny. and i want to see him twerk again. >> absolutely. so you talk about your incredible career. it starts with your classmate. he gets you into the business. then you have to convince a bunch of families that a guy in sandals and a t-shirt who look like he was 15 should represent their sons. and you did that to a tremendous success. with an altruistic twist to everything. guys, you can sign your big contract, but if you sign with me, you have to have a foundation or charity. why? >> my dad had two core values. one was to treasure relationships, especially family. and the second was to try to be

a force for change and help people who can't help themselves. so i was looking for a profession i could do that with. when we got back to atlanta, lights flashing in the sky at the airport. a huge crowd is pressed up against the police line. we hear, we interrupt "the johnny carson show" to bring you a special news bulletin. i looked a at him after that and said, we're not in berkeley anymore. i saw the tremendous worship athletes are held at. i want them to be role models. 120 of our players repaid their high school scholarship. well, they founded it. then at the professional level, they set up foundations. athletes trigger imitative behaviors. when i had lennox lewis cut a public service announcement that said real men don't hit women, it could do more to change rebellious adolescence than 1,000 authority figures. >> also in your book, you talk

about the ups and downs. you went all the way up, you went all the way down. now you're back. are you going to go acquire that status as the top agent of football again? >> i don't think i want to compete against my past. if i can help one athlete, it'll be a blessing. i mean, our super bowl party's back. >> great news for me. >> brian, do you remember how many different times i had to climb on to a battleship the day before to do an interview with you, and once we were walking up these steep stairs like you're in this nest and elizabeth dole's in front of me and i'm sure she's going to fall on me. you would pick the most archaic places to hold these things. >> i blame one person. gavin. he's in our green room right now. >> so we're going to do our soup ere bowl party. 3,000 of my closest friends. we always have a cause. this year it's going to be navy s.e.a.l.s foundation.

>> that's great. >> i don't think people are even aware that we actually have a little war going on. we're going to do a live hook-up between the party and our troops in the field in afghanistan. >> wow. >> so the celebrities can interact. >> he's back. it's called "the agent." find out about it. you want to get into this business in sports? find out about what he went there with his business and where it is today. thanks so much, leigh. congratulations on everything you've achieved and your comeback. >> thank you. see you on the battleship. all right. 17 minutes before the top of the hour. coming up, we told you about this story yesterday. a dad gets junk mail from office max addressed to his daughter, who died in a car crash. we wanted to know, how could something like that happen? and what do stores know about you? we got the answers finally. they're coming up. mine was earned in korea in 1953.

stolen credit card scam, and now as investigators inch closer to the suspect, initial reports naming a 17-year-old russian teen as a side kick to the mastermind. is this scam easy enough for a teen to pull off? we're going to ask dina kauffman. everyone's thinking, is this really possible? how? >> it's actually easier than you think. there are software tools out there that they can buy. some are free. some are even just very inexpensive. two, three, sometimes four-digit price tags that they can buy. make slight modifications to so it gets past anti-virus. it's easy as a click, like you would an app on your phone. >> just a matter of applying that in a place where they'd have access. >> they have to know how to use it and how to avoid detection. it's really easier than you think. >> awful to hear, awful that this is happening. yesterday we spoke with a gentleman whose daughter ashley was 17, killed in a car crash.

he received a letter from office max. the second line on the address said, quote, daughter killed in car crash. you know, how does a corporation, how does a company get this information that it's just spit out on to an envelope heartlessly really? >> you're right. the information is collected broadly. that, i think, is, you know, by companies who just gather whatever they can in the hopes they might be able to use it and sell it later. they're not being careful about what information is exposed in the address line. so they're not held to the same standards that your health care providers are. when your health care providers have sensitive information, they're regulated and told how to handle that. same thing with companies who are dealing with credit-related information. that's not the case with these data brokers. >> how do we protect ourselves? quickly, before we go, susceptibility probably at an all-time high in terms of information. what can we do? >> you have information out there on -- you know, be careful what you share.

the companies you sign up for, the loyalty towards, the information you give there. your web browsing history. you have to set your web browser so it doesn't allow third-party cooki cookies. it's a little more technical, but you basically have to be careful about what information you share online. we're looking to the regulators right now. they're looking to make some corrections here. >> deena coffman, we certainly appreciate the emergency info here. hopefully these cases do not reoccur. thank you. coming up, speaking of privacy, the president promised to reform the nsa, but one justice says it's nothing more than a bark. that's coming up next.

president obama flip flopping, changing his tune on the nsa spying program. do his new proposals that he made on friday actually offer protection to americans' privacy? let's talk to senior judicial analyst, judge pan drew napolitano. >> good morning. the president's new proposals do not change the fundamental principle that the government on a massive scale is violating the fundamental right to privacy that every american has and the specifically guaranteed right to privacy in the constitution. the constitution doesn't say all spying is illegal. it says spying on all of us is illegal. >> sure. >> so if the government wants to spy on a conversation you and i are having, it goes to a judge and explains to the judge why, in that conversation, it will probably learn of some criminal

activity. but that doesn't give the government the right to get a warrant or the judge the right to issue a warrant to spy on everybody in the state of new jersey in order to capture you and me. >> but they don't call it spying. they recorded all our phone calls. they've got all our text messages. they can tune our phone on in our pocket and listen in if they wanted to. >> the "washington post" reported friday afternoon, shortly after the president's speech that the nsa is capturing 500,000 buddy lists a day. you and i are of a generation we probably don't use buddy lists, but a lot of people listening to us do and know what we're talking about. and 600,000 address books a day, and 200 million texts a day, all without a warrant specifying the person from whom the information is to be taken as the constitution requires. >> the president and the congress is going along with this. this is a much different president obama than he was back in 2007 when he said he was

going to stop this stuff. remember this? >> this administration also puts forward a false choice between the liberties we cherish and the security we provide. i will provide our intelligence and law enforcement agencies with the tools they need to track and take out the terrorists without undermining our constitution and our freedom. that means no more illegal wire tapping of american citizens, no more national security letters to spy on citizens who are not suspected of a crime, no more track citizens who do nothing more than protest a misguided war, no more ignoring the law when it is inconvenient. >> so that's when he was running for president. now he is president and he's still doing all that stuff. >> he's still doing all that stuff. he proposed two changes. he proposed that instead of the government keeping all this massive information some third party, private industry or some neutral group keep it. but then the government could take the information whenever they wanted. and he proposed that some lawyer

appear before the fisa court and argue against what the nsa wants. that would be impossible under the constitution and he ought to know that. >> let me ask you an exit question. i heard a number of republicans on television say look, we need all this stuff to protect us. trust us. do you? >> the constitution doesn't trust the government with this kind of information. there is nothing more specific in the constitution than the 4th amendment. you want to spy on somebody? go to a judge, get warrant about that person, not about everybody else. otherwise we have the hallmarks of a totalitarian government, the kinds which we have fought our just wars against. >> that's what they're doing. all right. judge napolitano, thank you very much. >> pleasure, stevie. >> coming up on this tuesday morning, it was our favorite story from yesterday. a police officer who stopped to play football with a kid in the neighborhood. both the cop and the kid are here live. ♪

good morning. today is tuesday, january 21. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. we've already seen bombings outside the sochi olympics. this morning we have our first indication terrorists may have found a way inside. an urgents search for the so-called black widow. and if you thought it was impossible to enroll in obamacare, wait until you hear how hard it is to get out of obamacare. i'm out of stuff to say, steve. >> we've got two more hours. is hollywood still head over heels for president obama? >> do you feel let down by the

president? >> jesse watters takes your questions to the red carpet. "fox & friends" hour two for tuesday starts right now. >> you're watching "fox & friends," the news horn. thanks, buddy. you got to figure buddy, the cake boss, is making a lot of cakes in the new york city area for the super bowl. just imagine if he was over in russia because the winter olympics are coming to sochi and in addition to a lot of parties, there is a lot of security. in fact, right now they're pretty much deaf com 5. what they're trying to do is find a woman who apparently arrived in the area on -- there she is -- on january 11 or 12. her name is roseanna. she's being called a black widow because she is a widow. her husband, a militant, was killed in a shootout with police

in that area and she feels like she is a suicide bomber looking for revenge. they never travel alone. they think there could be one more with her. there could be two more with her. we don't know how many could be with her. >> they're looking right now at up to four women are under search that they're trying to find. the pentagon released statements after the -- the day after two men released a video and said by islamist militants to have carried out terrorist attacks in the south of russia. pentagon officials saying they're placing ships in the sea, in water to rescue or evacuate americans should that be called for. this is certainly something that's devastating to those who have been training for a while and with this woman that they're looking for, the white widow or black widow as she's called, it is said to be thought that ring of steel may have been penetrated. >> you would think with islamic extremists being an issue and

our great intelligence apparatus, you would think russia would tap into relationship, which was reset a few years ago. it looks like they're not. according to congressman rogers, he expressed concern on sunday that russia is unwilling to share information about the taste threat and christopher swift of georgetown university, he's one of these elite security professor, says russia will be lucky to get through the games without an incidents. so it goes back to the original. we have an incident that's happening right now and it's on the other side of the wire. they call it the ring of steel. up to four women, potential suicide bombers, in sochi, in olympic village prior to the olympic games. we only have 40 f.b.i. agents going over there. this is a perilous situation. >> they don't want our help. >> senator king says i would not send my family, nor would i go. >> sure. and that makes you wonder, why are we sending our team? as elisabeth said, we parked a couple of warships out in the black sea just to help evacuate

americans in the case of trouble, that doesn't sound so good. and then you look at some of the participants are worried because it is in the midst of a crazy war zone where a number of different countries want to kill off russia and now we know, according to these flyers that were circulated to hotels and restaurants throughout sochi yesterday and the day before, they're looking for this woman. she shouldn't be too hard to spot. she's got a four-inch scar on her left cheek and she cannot bend one of her arms. so you would think a wouldn't be very hard. but she obviously, if she's there, she's there to kill people. so she's not staying at a hotel. she's probably -- she knows people there. she's gone underground. she's just waiting. >> january 11 is the day that fox news found out she was supposed to have arrived there and was spotted recently as quoted on the street outside the foreign ministry.

>> the quote from the tape yesterday, we'll have a surprise package for you. mean to go putin. those tourists that will come here for them, we have a surprise that will be our revenge. they want freedom from russia. they want their extremeist lifestyle. russia doesn't want to give it to them. so they put the olympic village right there. congratulations ioc, choosing russia. that really keeps our athletes safe. >> it's a place that gets a lot of snow. they wanted snow. they're going to get it. but unfortunately, it looks like they could have a lot of trouble. the big question is, if you were either on the u.s. olympic team or you had a family member or you're one of the bosses who decides whether or not to send the team, given the fact that russia is worried that there is a black widow inside their ring of steel, should they even do the games? should we send people? should we send participants or more security? what do we do in a situation like this? e-mail us. you can twitter us and facebook

us. >> stop the games would be devastating, though. extremely bad precedent. >> it's happened before. >> hey elisabeth and steve. let me tell you what happened in the news overnight. just an hour ago, we got word that students at widener university in pennsylvania, they were given the go ahead to leave their dorm rooms if need be, even though that gunman is still on the loose. police now saying this might not have been a random act of violence. the gunman shot a student inside his car in the parking lot at the athletic center. the victim is in critical condition and overnight, k-9s were used to search for the suspect. no luck at this point. classes will resume this morning. rescue crews headed back to the scene of a deadly plant explosion in nebraska. they will try to recover the body of a worker that was killed in that blast. the search had to be called off last night because of the cold temperatures and all the strong winds. two people were killed.

ten were hurt when the second and third floors of the international nutrition plant collapsed on top of the first floor. no word yet on what caused that explosion. olympic blade runner oscar pistorius is reportedly making a deal with the parents of his dead girlfriend. the out of court settlement is said to be around $200,000. the parents of his girlfriend have been struggling since her death. pistorius is accused of shooting her in their home on valentine's day. he claims he thought she was an intruder. and one of the very few conservatives in hollywood does not want free speech to die hard. >> what is this? a parrot gun? >> bruce willis is set to produce and narrate a document called "the people demand." it follows protesters around the world fighting for free speech.

he's a long-time defendser of the second amendment. did you know that? >> indeed. >> very good. >> i remember from 9-11, he called up the president of the united states and says, how can i help? do you need me? he said don't worry, we'll get back to you. >> i remember that. flashback there. patriot for sure. >> i'm a big expendables fan. so i know everything they do. >> everyone is talking about how hard it is to sometimes get on the web site for obamacare and actually enroll, pay, see it all happen on the back end. but imagine what happens when you try to get out of it. you've heard a story, leslie hill of missouri, she actually had her policy, which was high risk, canceled because of obamacare and then she went on the web site, signed up, didn't really like the policy that was being provided for her. thought she'd find another option outside of the government web site that she wanted to then enroll in. she hadn't paid her premium, she thought no problem. we'll get off of it, simple as

that. >> and there is a termination button on the site. so it should be no problem. >> just one click away. not the case. she said this. >> it consumed my whole life. i felt like i slipped into a parallel universe. it's just as hard to go off as it is to get on. her process took around six weeks. >> she -- that's the frustrating thing. she went on the exchanges, found something and realized, wait a minute. blue cross, blue shield i can get -- it's a better policy. it's cheaper. i'll do that. it wound up taking her a total of six weeks to do it. she wound up on the phone for hours at a time. she was on-line. she was with all those help desks. she wound up actually driving to kansas city to talk to her insurance company in person and they were then able to cancel her policy. of course, that's after she had sent e-mails to the government, u.s. senators and congressmen as well just to complain about if somebody wants to not keep their

policy, it should be easy to unkeep it. >> they took the $950 account out of her account, so she had to take action. >> i wonder if she got it back. >> i don't know. a reason to tune in tomorrow. >> exactly. it's exactly ten minutes after the top of the hour. coming up, is there danger packed inside one of america's most popular super bowl snacks? details about a major recall coming up. i'm still afraid of pop rocks. and should people on food stamps be allowed to put pot on their shopping list? the law maker fighting to stop it next. >> the president is actually getting a lot of tension over this new interview where he seems to be changing his stance on marijuana. he says that's right. marijuana is no more dangerous than alcohol. then he said, i know this one guy who used to smoke tons of weed and he ended up the president -- let's just say he did fine now trublend has the perfect blend for each of us.

can people collecting food stamps in colorado add marijuana to their shopping list? right now the answer is yes because there is nothing blocking government benefit cards from working in pot shop atms. one congressman wants to change that, but he's running into some resistance. last week representative, they put it to a vote by the colorado senate committee and 3-2, they rejected the gop proposal to add marijuana to the ban list. what's the reasoning there? >> their reasoning is that somehow this places an undue burden on folks that are using

these entitlements. so taking their ebt cards and trying to find an atm is somehow going to be more difficult for them if they take pot shops off the list. i find that argument unreasonable. there are more grocery stores and gas stations and 7-11s around then pot shops still, believe it or not in downtown denver. so i don't think the argument holds muster. i think it's more of a political move than anything. but i think it will backfire on them. >> right now we're just getting used to the idea of pot being legal in colorado. now we're trying to just put some limitations on it and there seems to be a fork in the road there. they say it's a hardship to go outside your neighborhood shop, maybe the pot shop is the only place with an atm and having to go someplace else, it's an undue hardship for those who qualify for food stamps. what's your reaction? >> my reaction is this: i've had conversations with some of these people that are using the ebt cards, the homeless

population, the most impoverished among us right around the state capitol building we have some of those folks that are living on the streets. i've gone up to them and asked them, do they think it's reasonable for them to walk into a pot shop and use their card and they laugh. they think it's a joke. frankly, i think it's unfair. as a lower middle class american myself, i think it's unfair to be encouraging a lot of these folks who are coming off of addictions, who we should be encourage to go come out of the addiction that brought them down to the level they're at in the first place. it's just not common sense policy. i think liquor stores, for example, are currently illegal to use an ebt card in a liquor store for a reason. and being uncharted territory, i think it's reasonable to add pot shops to that list. >> i would think so because right now, if i were to go buy a beer with aebt card, you would say absolutely no. overall, how is it going in colorado with pot being legal?

>> we've had reports from our law enforcement officials recently, the denver police chief commented the rollout has gone smoothly as of a couple days ago, they hadn't attributed any acts of violence or increased crimes to the fact that we have these shops on our street corners. i think it's a matter of time, though. i think it's simply a matter of time before we start seeing some problems. the banking industry, we have a lot of banks that are still discouraging these business owners from make deposits at their banks because of the fact that it's still illegal under federal law and they're essentially under the law, they're laundering money for these companies. so it's really difficult. our colleagues up in state of washington are having some of the same issues. >> real quick, bronco-seahawks, who are you leaning towards? >> well, we are having apparently the pot bowl, i find some irony in that.

of course, i'm a broncos fan. you can seat colors i'm wearing today. i'm sticking with my team. >> all right. representative wright, thanks so much. >> thank you. >> meanwhile, straight ahead, is hollywood still head over heels for president obama? jesse watters takes that hard-hitting question to the red carpet we all know. then want to lose 20 pounds in four weeks? then stay right here. we have the key and we have the expert and we have elisabeth. what else too we need? an overhead camera. okay, check. ♪ ♪ play close. good and close.

>> who is this super shred for? four weeks, 20 pounds, that's intense. >> it is. this is for three major groups of people. people doing destination dieting. going to a wedding, going on vacation. they need to lose quickly. the other group is those who hit a plateau. one lady lost 100 pounds on shred and then hit a plateau. she lost 18 more in four weeks on this. the third group is for those who want quick results. michelle from st. louis, you can see her transformation. it's for that kind of person who doesn't have a lot to lose in four weeks. >> that's in four weeks right there? >> this is not in four weeks. this is brian tucker. he lost shred -- from the original program, then lost more on super shred. this is all about -- this is one of my favorites. julie from indiana. she ran a half marathon. this is a program that really gets people going. it increases your energy. there is a lot of food on the program. >> you're not hungry? >> never hungry. people like it because it's so doable. easy food you can find at any

store. >> and the key is when people think, okay. the hungry part that you just mentioned, but if you look at all this food on this table, i don't think i could eat it anyway. i wouldn't eat this much. this is what you get in one day? >> some people complain it's too much food. i tell them, just eat sop of the food, as long as you don't skip meals. with the program, not only can you have fun foods, like pizza sometimes, i teach you how to eat them in a healthy way. >> what's the overall plan? four weeks, take us through each week. >> four weeks. the first is called foundation, which is how you start establishing your new ways of eating. >> that's key. >> very key. >> that's what you would eat? >> that's right. howl this is on foundation. this is a day's worth of meals. next week is called accelerate. we take away one meal, but add a snack. snacks are very important when you're trying to lose weight, particularly on this program 'cause you're eating every hour and a half. >> what kind of snack? >> we got popcorn here is one snack. you can have real popcorn.

>> there is 100 calories. >> i know it. >> then the third week is called shape. that's the first week you start noticing you lost a size. people will say, are you doing something different? the last week is called tenacious. this is your last week, we're going back to four meals a day, but go hard. that's the foundation. each week, the calorie count changes to keep your body off kilter to keep your metabolism going. >> is there a rebound after? what do you after week four? >> some people lost their pounds and they want to stop. then they do shred, a regular program where it's lifestyle program. or they may want to do another cycle. >> with shred, your original diet, what is the lifestyle change? >> it's interesting. people eat a lot more fruits and vegetables, who are whole grains and start to like it. they start realizing wow, my pallat is more open because i wasn't eating these foods.

>> what if you work out? do you add a little more food just to make up for the calorie differential? >> men tend to burn more calories than women because of more lean muscle mass. make adjustments. if you're a marathon runner, obviously you want to add 15% calories, which means maybe two more snacks per day. but in general, 80% of people, the way the book is laid out and as you can see, each meal is thought out with flexibility. there are three rules of dieting. one, dieting should not be expensive. buy regular food to lose weight. second, it shouldn't be complicated. we make it too complicated. it's really simple if you pay attention. third, make sure that you do not ask for perfection. eat any food in moderation. >> thank you so much. super shred, you might want to give it a try. >> 20 pounds in four weeks. that sounds pretty easy. >> that's a jump start for sure. >> thanks. coming up, the contractor behind the disastrous obamacare web site. out. guess who is in? friends of the obama campaign.

>> what does hollywood think of the benghazi attack that killed four americans? >> benghazi scandal and the obamacare debauchle? >> benghazi scandal, we kind of know that -- you and i agree that's bs now, right? >> really? more politics from the red carpet at sundance. wait 'til you hear marissa tomei. she's funny.

'cause there is no better way for a woman to turn 50 than spending your birthday looking at beyonce the whole night. actually beyonce said it was the least she could do after the president let blue ivy design the health care web site. >> that explains it. >> blue ivy is? the oldest child of jay-z and beyonce. >> you got a lot of info. >> i really do. >> you'll love the fact that at sundance film fest where she salute the films they've made and they had the premiere of the new mitt romney documentary that's going to be coming out on netflix. >> which i can't wait to see.

of the core, maybe we should lift the poor up instead. >> are you disappointed in president obama at all? >> no. >> why not? >> i'm disappointed in bill o'reilly. >> i think he will go down as without a doubt, having cleaned up jimmy carter being the worst president ever. >> i think the health plan -- i know it's not perfect. but jesus, we got to start somewhere. >> with all the record unemployment and benefiting scandal -- benghazi scandal -- >> benghazi scandal. >> you and i agree that's bs now, right? >> why is that bs? an american ambassador was assassinated. >> what was the scandal? >> there was no protection. >> who cut -- who is cutting the protection? who is cutting the budget? the republicans. >> the intelligence committee said they had nothing to do with the protection. >> i want hillary. >> are you a big hillary fan?

parts of the mid-atlantic, including places like washington, d.c., baltimore. they could be looking at four to eight inches of snow. up to a foot possible in parts of philadelphia, new york city looking like maybe six to ten inches. there will be locally some spots that pick up higher amount. i want to mention eastern long island, the forecast out there is ten to 14 inches of snow with the wind gusting up to 40 miles per hour, we're talking whiteout conditions, blowing and drifting snow. the big concern here coming up over the next 24 hours. let's head back inside. >> not a good weekend to spend in the hamptons vacationing at all. thanks a lot. let's tell but sports. richard sherman apologizing, kind of, for his rant on receiver 49ers michael crabtree. >> that's the result you gonna get! don't you ever talk about me!

go out and they're able to associate a human being behind the -- i tell people all the time that a police officer has 20 to 25 if not more awesome qualities that are within them and really only one of those are the badge that we wear. again, it's a true blessing. >> blessing is right. i know you're a dad and i think we all saw that part of you. i think what you're saying is so true. with jermaine next to you right now, talk us through, like you see him playing by himself. what do you want injury -- what do you want him to know and his friends to know when they see you guys driving by? >> i think he kind of hit on it. number one, we want our kids and really everyone to know that the police love then, that we truly are out there for them. so i guess talking -- i was at a

traffic stop and i could see jermaine out of the corner of my eye and i kind of saw him waving, but it was kind of a low key wave. so i finished traffic stop. i went around the complex, which is the part that's seen on video and i saw a group of kids and i thought that they were going to actually approach jermaine. so they kept walking. so at that time, i wanted to inject a little bit of positive attitude in jermaine's life and again, it was nonverbal. we got out and at that time it was just two crazy guys playing football on a beautiful saturday in rosenberg. it was awesome. >> jermaine, just a little bit about you we want to know. what do you want to be when you grow up? are you in fifth grade? >> yes, ma'am. >> what would you like to do? >> play football. >> you know what? judging from that highlight, i have a feeling that won't be the first one. you've got a great arm. it looks like you've got a good

receiver. who had the better arm, jermaine? you or the sergeant? >> i think he does. i think he does. >> i like that smile. sergeant, jermaine, we thank you for sharing that moment and really a great message for all about law enforcement and the meaningful relationship they can have with our citizens like jermaine. i know you get to go to school late today. so have fun with the rest of your day and your buddies. >> thank you guys. >> thank you. up next, they fight for our freedom only to come home and fight to find a job. cheryl casone here with five companies hiring our veterans. first on this day in 1957, country music star patsy cline first gained national attention with her performance on arthur godfrey's talent scouts. in 1976, the first supersonic jet liner took off from london's heathrow airport. in 1984, yes had the number one song in america "owner of a

democrat wendy davis, who is running for governor of texas, claimed she was divorced, a single mom at the age of 19 and lived in a trailer park. turns out davis was 21 when she got divorced, lived in a mobile home for just a few months, and her second husband paid for her last two years of college and her harvard education. davis responding this morning saying, quote, my language should be tighter. i'm learning about using broader, looser language. i need to be more focused on the details. and those are your headlines. >> i guess the detail would be you should probably tell the truth. laura ingraham joins us from our nation's capitol. you know, this wendy davis biography discrepancy, i saw it on-line. we're talking about it. otherwise radio silence across much of the mainstream media. >> well, i'm thinking about sher language. she has to be more focused, pay more attention to details. she should be running for u.s.

senate. not the state senator. she's perfect for this place where i am. this is a perfect politician. look, i think what we've seen here in a number of instances is when people are put into the public spotlight. she was already state senator, but she was embraced by the left at a time where democrats have made texas their electoral pride. if they can pick off texas in the next presidential election, then the republicans -- it would almost be impossible for republicans to win. so if someone like a wendy davis, who they turned into this composite perfect candidate, she's an every woman, struggled from day one, this narrative that was compelling, then she would be a perfect person to beat greg abbott, the republican running against her, and maybe be on the way to transforming that state into a blue state. well, details do matter and some of the details were fudged, but

i have to say, remember the president's own biography "dreams of my father," autobiography, we found out that some of those details were fudged as well. the composite -- composite girlfriend. does that really matter? it's an autobiography. >> what difference does it make anyway? >> right. but it is interesting, like why do that? it's because we're so focused on personality instead of focused on policy and ideas and how are you going to grow the economy. that's part of what the democrats have been masterful at doing and they did it with obama, man who had no executive experience becomes this poster for the new type of liberalism and then in the end, you find out actually experience does matter. >> you talk about a narrative and trying to find people to fill in the blanks and tell that story. what about the narrative from january 15 through the 20th when the nightly news networks spent twice as much time covering the first lady michelle obama's birthday than they did

on benghazi? >> i was stunned, elisabeth, that they even covered benghazi at all. i read that. news busters, wow, nexted benghazi on nbc? that's incredible. but again, it ties back into what we were talking about with the personal narrative trumping actual results. so what has the president done? we're going to talk about income inequality. what has he done for the great middle class? what has he done for a real recovery? what has he done to make america stronger in the world? what has he done? no action none of that matters. but what matters is at least michelle is having fun and beyonce is putting great photos on tumbler, whatever that was. that makes sense. it's perfect! this is what they've done from the beginning. >> partied all night. >> they did. they had to wear comfy shoes. >> we reached a new low in presidential history, though, because the president focusing on his biography and his legacy already.

we now have confirmation that he did do the dougie, the hip-hop dance. but there is no video. at least none that surfaced yet. nixon had all those minutes of tape missing. we have the missing dougie video. >> that's right great. i've heard that apparently the president is going to get $20 million for his biography. he's already written two other autobiographies, so i don't know what's going to be in the new one. maybe income inequality. that is what congresswoman from connecticut, rosa delario is talking about. we want you to listen to this. keep in mind, she's talk being how there are so many haves and have notes, but at the same time, she is a multi-millionaire a number of times over. here she is. >> there are times when our country is confronted with a crisis that poses a threat to our nation and our way of life and congress needs to stand up and act. the test of our time is

inequality. it's not too much to say that inequality threatens the continued existence of the middle class in america. even the american dream itself. >> as you see behind her, she sold out for that speech. >> cheap seats. >> absolutely. so as you look at the numbers, it looks like inequality has grown more under president obama than has under anyone else. as far as she goes, she would know a lot about inequality. she's millionaire. >> yeah. she's from my home state of connecticut and i'm so proud of her. we both wear scarves, so that's good. look, what we know is that the top 1% of income earners in the obama years, the years they focused on in this berkeley study, shows that 95% of the gains in income were actually received by that one upper 1%. only 14% -- .4% increase in wages for the rest of the country. so think about it.

1%, 99%. right? so if that's really a problem, and i would submit it's a problem that is borne out of terrible economic policy, terrible trade policies, unbridled immigration, and a lurch toward amnesty which will only make it worse toward income inequality. yeah, it's gotten worse under obama. your move, rosa. go ahead. >> we got to talk about income inequality, otherwise they got to change the subject away from obamacare because that has stunk up the place. all right. laura ingraham, we know you got to get ready for your radio show. thank you very much for dropping by. >> what's the scarf? >> lot of snow out there. by the way, my kids' school canceled again. long weekend. all the snow. no snow. >> mama, go home, take care of the kids. >> believe me. they're okay. left them with a "wall street journal" and carton of marlboro. >> she's kidding! >> there is no "wall street journal" there. >> yeah. exactly. she can accessorize. am i right?

you've already seen several bombings outside the sochi olympics in russia. this morning we have our first indication terrorists may have found a way inside. reports suggest that female suicide bomber, that woman right

there, black widow, has breached the security zone, the ring of steel set up for next month's games. this as the u.s. military sends back up to the region for an evacuation. the state department tells athletes to reconsider their plans. is it safe there? peter johnson, jr. joins us live. can we trust russia to keep our people safe? >> they promise safe passage for snowden and lee harvey oswald. with you did they coo -- but can they do the same thing for our athletes? the state department displayed its ineptness and inability to determine whether certain facilities are safe or secure and immune from terrorism. benghazi, example number one. so we have a lack of confidence in what the russians are doing. they say they're going to have 40,000 troops and security personnel there. we also know the state department has issued a travel alert as of last friday. we know that at least three of these so-called black widow

terrorists are on the loose in the so-called ring of steel surrounding sochi. we know hundreds of russian troops are killed in that region every year as the result of this chechen crisis that we have and we know there is a man named doku, the chechen tribe leader, he and his band have made threats. doku amarov, that's the kind of osama bin laden of this situation. >> there is the guy right there. >> american teams are very concerned that at least one of the teams has hired its own security unit and has planes ready to go in the event there needs to be evacuations from the sochi olympics. >> yesterday a video came out where a couple of -- looks like they were a couple of the homicide bombers who blew up a train station not too long ago killing i think 30 or 40 different people. those guys said essentially, big surprise waiting for you.

but the worry is that these black widows are already inside the ring of steel. so it's not safe there. so why go? why go? >> we understand terrorism in this country all too well. we understand a response to terrorism. but do we have it under control? senator king of maine says he wouldn't go nor would he send his family to the russian olympics this year. we have snowboarders. we have skiers. we have people that engage in the most beautiful winter sports imaginable. but they are not navy seals. they are not u.s. rangers. they are not green berets and they should not be judged by that standard. so the state department and the white house needs to step up now with the congress and make a determination if this olympics -- is this olympics safe for our athletes? if it's not safe, they shouldn't go. i'd like to hear what you have to say. we're going to be looking at that again tomorrow.

if you have expertise on that, let me know. if you have a thought on that, let me know. let's look at it hard. but let's not put americans in harm's way. state department alerts, warships at the ready, that's an olympics? it sounds like a war. we want to war, let's put the olympics in afghanistan, in syria, iraq. let's not put americans in harm's way, especially if we don't have confidence that russia will, in fact, protect them. do we trust putin on this? i don't know. >> that says it all right there. peter johnson, jr., thank you very much. if you would like to e-mail him, e-mail us. thank you. coming up, new york city's new liberal mayor wants to raise taxes to an all-time high while city staffers are currentsly being paid to play cards on the taxpayer's dime. and obesity kills more people than drugs and car accidents. but our next guest says losing

attack. in the guide, i highlight all these things. it's not just about what to do, it's why i'm asking to you do it. if we made a pill to do that, it would go gang busters. >> you have to eat. that's the fun part. >> what do we have here? >> this is the idea of putting protein to work for you because every meal in the doctor's diet, i have protein as a central tenet because without protein, you get hungry quickly. without protein, you get massive spikes in blood sugar. blood sugar tells your -- when it goes up, it gets an insulin spike, which tells your body to store fat. >> you say eat with your mind. be mindful of when you're eating or what you're eating or both? >> we eat a lot of food in this country. if i asked you, what did you have for dinner last night, a lot of times we don't remember. so we have this out here just because one of the ways to do it is drink a glass of water before every meal and every snack.

if you want to flavor it with fruit, that's a great way to go. but when you really sit down and begin to enjoy all the wonderful flavors that we have available to us, 'cause i talk about how spices can improve and prolong your life in the book. we really begin to appreciate and value those foods, food really can become your medicine and you can enjoy it. food doesn't have to be bad. i really think that's an important concept. >> the book is called "the doctor's diet." always a pleasure to have you here. do you think the producers are trying to tell us something because you're the second diet book we've done today. >> you all are models of health. i can attest to that, seeing you in person. >> coffee is good? >> cough gee great. >> essential. >> thank you very much. >> all right. next up, your tax going up in smoke. should food stamps be used for some people to buy pot? your comments keep coming in and we are going to read them coming up. >> we sure are.

♪ ♪ it's our shot of the morning. former president george herbert walker bush, bush 41, being spotted yesterday sitting front row at a duke basketball game. he was there to support duke's coach for his work in leadership in cancer research. he also paid a visit to the players' locker room after the game. by the way, duke won over north carolina state. the final was 95-60. that's great. >> i believe it was 25 years since he was president. i think he tweeted that out. >> he did. >> i think it was 25 years ago yesterday he was inaugurated. he thanked people for the privilege of being our privilege. >> and a lucky charm at that. he might have to go to the rest of their games. the law maker in colorado

trying to prevent maui wowie from food stamps' shopping list. the cards you're able to use, ebt cards, apparently there aren't enough locations for them. so they put the actual transaction machine within a weed store. >> so colorado said, listen, we believe that you should not be buying beer with food stamps. they agreed on that. so you should not be buying pot with food stamps. they voted 3-2 last wednesday to allow atm's and ebt cards to be used at pot stores 'cause it would be too inconvenient for people to have to go to different places for the ebt cards. >> when an hour and a half ago, brian was talking to a colorado state rep, jarrett wright, and he says the democrats are against this. listen to this. >> their reasoning is that somehow this places an undue burden on folks that are using these entitlements. so taking their ebt card and

trying to find an atm is somehow going to be more difficult for them if we take pot shops off the list. i find that argument unreasonable. there are more grocery stores and gas stations and 7-11s around than pot shops still, believe it or not in downtown denver. so i don't think the argument holds muster. i think it's more of a political move than anything. >> okay. so from your entry somewhere view, you made it clear -- interview, you made it clear because federal law, you can't buy beer and stuff like that with the ebt card. however, because colorado and washington state are unique because of the first states in the union for recreational use of marijuana, you can buy pot with your ebt card? >> that's what they're saying. and he can't believe there is some push back against it. so far having legalized pot is not a bad thing. >> they're cloaking this idea that there aren't enough available so they had to put them in this location. right? >> he's not buying it.

he doesn't think you will once the country takes a look at it. here is what julie from illinois wrote, food stamps should be used for groceries. hence the word food. >> from susan in north carolina, no way should welfare be used for weed. we don't want them losing motivation to go out and look for a job. >> good point. >> another says no taxpayer dollars should be used to purchase pot. what do you think? e-mail us or twitter us or you could facebook us. >> ainsley feels totally different about this. >> my mom was in line at the grocery store, a woman trying to buy dog food with food stamps. cashier said you can't do this. so the lady said fine, went back to the meat section, came back with ground beef for her dog. >> that's technically going by the law. >> yeah. thanks, guys. here is your news this morning. taxpayer dollars hard at work or not? the "new york post" reporting more than a dozen staffers for the newly-elected new york city mayor bill de blasio are not working. instead, watching netflix or playing card games while they

americans who have lived past 100 and he's here to share their secrets. steve, what prompted this idea? >> i met a lady when she was 94 and invite medicine to her 100th -- invited me to her 100th birthday. i said, i've got to capture this wisdom. i asked her about the roaring 20s, how did you make it through the great depression? give us your advice about money and work and life for the younger generation. and her wisdom was just authentic. i said, got to capture this and share it with the younger generation 'cause we need it. >> a breath of wisdom over the course of ups and downs. what is some of the wisdom in terms of money to be shared with millenials? >> well, are you going to run a clip? >> let's listen to this clip and we'll get your response. >> they're so in debt. so in debt. why? because well, i must have a better tv than you have. or i must have this one as a new one. this is a new one. all these new things, they must

have. no. it's not necessary. >> wow. >> that's my girlfriend rachel in atlanta. debt is a nasty four letter word to centenarians. they can't stand it. over 90% of them paid cash for cars they ever bought. they paid off credit cards every months. another point about money is save at least 10% of your income minimum. that's the minimum i got from over 500. most of them said over 30 to 50%. it's not what you make. it's what you spend. and we're only at a savings rate of 5% in america. we're only halfway there. the big point they make is don't bet on not living to 100. my girlfriend in tallahassee said i thought i'd live to 70. sold my business at 65. by the time i was 70 i've been broke. if i had known i was going to live this long, i would have planned a little differently. plan on it. >> good advice. they also a lot to say about work. >> absolutely. >> every worker is valuable.

no kind of work is menial. it's just as important to dig a ditch as sit in the corporate office. >> two big points about work. one, take this job and love it. not shove it, like the old country song said. they loved what they did. i asked every one of them. if you could live your life over again, would you do something different? over 90% said absolutely not. i loved what i did because it was significant. i knew i was helping somebody or another business. and second big point, work as long as you can. that doctor was a practicing pediatrician at 103. walter bruining worked 'til he was 99 and loved it. work as long as you can. i hope y'all are doing this show when you're 100. >> let's hope. it's a matter of using moisterrizer. >> let's talk about life. >> helping others is the one big thing that i've done all my life and i think that's the best thing you can do ever. if you can do something good for

somebody else, you will find that's good for you, too. >> perhaps the most important message, right? >> be a giver, not a taker. these people are givers. i asked them if i could give you a million dollars today, what would you do with it? they said i'd give it away, family, friends, church, synagogue, college, whatever. they were just givers and not takers. and they had an attitude of gratitude. katherine said there are two kinds of people in life. people that wake up in the morning and say good morning, god. and others say good good morning, morning. -- say good god, morning. they were grateful for every day of it, lived it to the fullest. none of them knew they would live to be 100 or more. attitude of gratitude. check up from the neck up every day. >> you have 60,000 in this country over 100. celebrate 100. steve franklin, thanks so much. >> thank you all for having me. >> great idea. 13 minutes before the top of the hour. >> is wisconsin buying into obamacare? governor scott walker joining us live next. first let's check in with bill hemmer and see if he

the white house is not telling you, according to the "wall street journal," many of them had insurance before obamacare. >> joining us to react to that and with the latest on the obamacare in his state, wisconsin governor scott walker. good morning to you, governor. >> good morning. good to be with you. >> and the story out there is that accord to the "wall street journal," of the -- remember there were 50 million americans who needed health care. that's why we passed obamacare. so far only 11% of the people who have signed up didn't have it before. >> yeah. and i don't think that's shocking a lot of us who raised concerns about obamacare in the first place. but just take the step further, in our state, there is just over 40,000 people, obviously a big jump from the 5,000 or so we saw through the end of november. but let's look at who they are. supposedly to work nationwide, they needed 40% of those signing up to be young people.

in our state it's less than 20%. the other interesting thing is our office of the insurance commissioner in this state did an informal survey of insurers and they found that even of that 40,000 or so, only about half of those people who signed up are paid enrollees. so the big question mark to whether or not these are people paying to get that insurance and it's a far cry from the 700,000 or so people that identify they thought would ultimately need obamacare. >> ultimately almost 7 million that have lost their plans and had their plans canceled that they were quite happy with. so that's the bad news. i want to talk about good news. wisconsin, state of the state, you have a $912 million budget surplus and more tax cuts on the way. what's the secret? i know you were with the president, was it last week, together with a bunch of others? did he ask you for any tips? >> in our states and a lot of other great states across america, there is a stark contrast to what's happening in washington. we put in place, we made tough

decisions the last few years, but they paid off. the economy is better. more people are working in our state. 100,000 more since i took office. more employers are hiring. and personal income is up. we've seen 4 1/2% increase in personal income the last year. that along with some prudent budget measures brings us that almost $912 million surplus. we're going to give it right back to the people. we're going to set a little bit aside in the rainy day fund and the rest will go into income and property tax relief and changes in withholding. we'll spell that out tomorrow night. it's good news in our state in wisconsin and across the country, there is a lot of other great examples like that. >> and it's going to be interesting. i'm curious, on those two topics, of your surplus and obamacare that we just covered, when you told the president what your impression was from the wisconsin governor perspective and see this surplus, was he curious at all? >> well, they talk -- six governors, three republicans, three democrats, wasn't exactly a partisan debate there. but they are interested about

what is happening in the states. stark contrast to the oftentimes dysfunction we see between the white house and the congress in our nation's capitol. we're getting things done. but don't be fooled. i and a lot of other governors are doing these things are going to face tough elections come this november. in fact, as you know, they tried to take me out in 2012 in the recall election. they're going to be back at it again. the one thing that saved us was a lot of grassroots volunteers who went to places like our web site, scottwalker.com and helped us out. we'll need them again in this november's election. >> a lot of them are really bugged that you are still in office and come november, i know there are a lot of special interest groups right now injecting big money into your state, all sorts of things are being pulled now. they're trying to get you out of office. >> well, that's right. you would think after the recall election where we won by more votes in a larger percentage than the first time in 2010 that somehow they'd move to the next race. but instead, we saw last year

the flc-cio and other groups announced they were shifting money from washington from the congressional races to six races across the country where they were targeting governors. i'm at the top of that list and for us the way we counters that is through grassroots volunteers and grassroots donors. visiting our web site scottwalker.com and giving us the 25, $30 and coming and making phone calls. the unions said they'll dump more money in our state and we'll be ready for it. >> you've been down this road before. >> from your meeting at the white house, quickly, increase concern on the part of the president in terms of mood before we go? >> i lost you. >> the mood of the country. >> oh, i think there is a real concern. i think it's one of those -- that's the difference. we see optimism in the states. we still don't see that in washington. >> governor, thanks so much for your time. >> my pleasure
