it is saturday, the 15th of march, 2014. i'm anna kooiman. a fox news alert. hijacked. the prime minister of malaysia speaking out overnight saying the communications on flight 370 were intentionally disabled, calling it a, quote, deliberate act. but where is that plane? the breaking details ahead. >> yes. we did build that. and now we are giving it away for free to the rest of the world. the obama in administration about to hand over control of the internet to foreign countries. why? we will tell you. >> and the piano man loses his lyrics. ♪
3:01 am
>> and what he had to say about that song will surprise you. "fox & friends" begins right now. ♪ ♪ you are watching "fox & friends." >> well, good morning. it's 6:00 a.m. on the east coast on saturday. we begin with a fox news alert. all signs this morning do point to a hijacking. the prime minister of malaysia just wrapped up a press conference. he said someone on the missing malaysia airlines flight deliberately caused that flight to go off the map. the search is now focusing on two new areas from indonesia to the southern indian ocean all the way up to stan and the border. joining us from washington this morning, elizabeth joins us with the latest. what did we learn. >> what a striking turn of events. we did hear the prime minister from hours ago
3:02 am
there is a whole new phase of the search due to the fact that authorities believe the plane vanished as a result of deliberate action. that's new. revelation is huge. 14 countries, 43 ships and 18 aircraft's all involved in the search which has shifted. based on satellite signal pickup after 8:00 a.m. on omarch 8th, that's a week ago today and nearly seven hours after a transponder on board the aircraft stopped sending out communication. investigators are using satellite technology, not normally used for this purpose to help locate flight 370. the satellite communication link was not disabled on 370. it cannot be switched off manually. once an hour the system pings just like a cell phone searching for an antenna tower. they are also into the pilot and crew. that this we learned not only was the plane turned intentionally. one of multiple means of communication was shut off deliberately.
3:03 am
experts say this requires detailed knowledge of the aircraft. including familiarity with the plane's sirkted breaker and computer system. now, a hijacking has not been completely ruled out, but that being said, certainly there are volatile countries nearby, home to insurgent groups, but there are also very sophisticated military areas, even some run by the u.s. nearby also. clayton, tucker, anna, back to you guys. >> all right, elizabeth. thank you so much. now that a hijacking is no longer a theory, what can the learn about potential hijackers from the information we do have. >> joining us is j.p. good morning. >> good morning, folks. >> so, were you surprised by the assessment of the malaysian government and u.s. government this was likely a hijacking? >> that's not at all a surprise. i think from the get-go i had moved it up from 50% to 80% that it was a terrorist terroristic act and hijacking. >> when you look at the path where this thing was pinging
3:04 am
certain. it seems to be whoever was behind controls of the aircraft knew precisely what they were doing, that is evading certain towers right before vietnamese airspace, turning off this information so that it would not connect with vietnamese air stations. going out to the ocean to the left there and then going north again from that point in the ocean before it's able to connect all those transponders turned off. does it suggest to you that the pilot is involved somehow? >> it would have to be either the crew or a highly skilled pilot and also a pilot such as myself with the military ability and knowledge to know exactly what you are talking about. how do we evade radars, how to fly under them because now you have left me only with primary radar, skin paint. transponders are of off. no more code being transmitted. so now all i know is that the radars, military radars, not the civilian ones are using primary which basically is they be pinging the skin. so whichever way i turn that
3:05 am
aircraft i can either deflect it, absorb it more, can i go below it and i can evade it. that had to be an individual with that type of knowledge and that type of skill. >> and j.p., you know, the elevation changes, one thing a lot of people are talking about, possibly could it be causing people to think that maybe there was a fight in the cockpit? >> that initial one that i have read about in the "times" were by the aircraft go up 45,000 feet and does a turn and comes back. that looks to me like a recovery. a fight perhaps over the controls. you have a zoom climb. the airplane is only -- maximum altitude is 43,000 feet controlled flight. they went out of 45,000 feet. ran out of airspeed and controllability. when they say it also recovered somewhere down 20,000 feet, that would also be a very skilled pilot to have lost control of that
3:06 am
aircraft up' there, do what we call like an octo flugeron. >> you think he stalled at 45,000 feet? >> he ran out of airspeed. this aircraft. >> that's scary. >> if i took this thing along at 35,000 feet and wanted to do a zoom climb and put the power all the way 8-5 maximum speed. start to shake. roll trim up. get that plane up. it will run out of speed at maybe 6,000 or 7,000 feet. this is not a fighter. so the momentum would take it up to 45,000 feet and the airspeed would be going down towards zero and so would the controllability of that aircraft. and so a pilot skilled. skilled pilot if that knows kicking at nose down, with that type of an airplane, 500,000 pounds, i need 15,000 feet to recover. >> but you would have to know what you were doing in order to recover from that. >> you need to have a skill that is a little bit above
3:07 am
and beyond. >> wow. >> what about the end game here? that's fascinating because the last point of contact is near an island off of india. if you are a skilled pilot and trying to avoid radar the last place you are going want to go. here it is on your screen, last place you are going to want to go is near india. military and sophistication that india has is going to pick it up instantly. what sort of flight path? we understand the roads, you get on i 78 and 4005 freeway and pilots know these particular roads. what independent could've roads, where would they lead from that point? >> that is still on the island of malaysia. on the western end not up near the indian continent. those type of roads, the routes that we fly, is that what you are talking about. >> that route you are seeing on the screen last connected last contact off of that island there. where would it have gone.
3:08 am
direction he would have taken road he was taken. >> normal road he was flight planned for normal out toward malaysia vietnam, and penang and china. when he started doing all of this deviation he is out of the route system. routes published. is he crisscrossing all of these routes. but we're talking about 1:00, 2:00 in the morning. who do you think is out there flying around. that's the other thing that's important about. this one of the best times to attack people is in the early hours of the morning. that's when your psychological clock is least warning. so if this were deliberate planning, what better time to do it at takeoff times of midnight, 30 in the morning. when the less traffic flying around in that area. between the hours of midnight to 6:00 in the morning. >> j.p., you mentioned the skill that this pilot would have had and the
3:09 am
sophistication in executing it and the lanning and all of that where do you think it actually went awry. before the show you think it crashed somewhere on the ocean or jungle. >> not on wheels he ran out of gas seven days ago, he is either on land crashed somewhere or he is in the ocean. if he were intending to do something else, hostage-taking, cargo looting, then it's on land somewhere. i would need 4,000 feet of an unprepared surface to put that airplane in. it's never coming out again. that's all i would need. if he is crashed somewhere and one of those islands off the cost by the sea, 572 of item. only 3 will are inhabited. that's all jungle, yes. but he landed in 70-foot trees, he would leave a swathe at least 3,000 feet long that would be perfectly visible. >> what would be the point though. whoever did this thought it
3:10 am
through to a great degree and as you said was a skilled person. this was not some random guy. clearly he had a plan. >> not one. >> then several. >> why would you go to all this trouble to evade detection to ditch it in the ocean. >> the problem is the plan may have gone awry. comes down to where maybe something happened. the crew was not involved. maybe they were overwhelmed. maybe someone was injured. mane it all blew apart. you can develop several types of motives. people who are crazy enough to take an airplane 2227 people, probably killed them all, what possible scruples, you have to go into fantasy land to think what were you thinking? what was your objective? what is your reason for this? you can write an entire book on this whole story. incredible. >> thanks for being here this morning and fascinating information for us this morning. >> my pleasure. >> we do have other stories

denied her a promotion all because she talked to the "new york post" anonymously by the way about a female recruit last year. is that fair joining us is that lawsuit elizabeth. nice to see both of you this morning. >> my pleasure. >> elizabeth, you feel like you were denied about this promotion because you spoke out anonymously to the "new york post"? >> yes, absolutely. >> what did you say to them? >> i was speaking of the standards of the job basically that everybody should be held to the same standards whether you are a male or female and that comment wasn't liked. >> what specifically were they zeroing in on this wendy who was a recruit had
3:17 am
failed a number of the standards tests six and ultimately the seventh time before dropping out. why was she allowed to take the test pell times when other people aren't. >> that's my question why was she allowed to do it when other people aren't? listen it, doesn't matter who you are, we all have the same standards. you know this job. it it's about safety. it's about -- could be a life and death situation. if you want to be treated as an equal, you have to be -- you have to do the same thick. you have to be held to the same standards. >> you were one of a couple of females contacted by that story by the "new york post" anonymously by the way. here is the comment that the "new york post" put in their paper and i will read it to you: i don't know how she got to graduate. it never should have happened, a female firefighter told the post. you should not graduate if you can't meet all the requirements, male, female, black, or white. steve, then we learn that the fdny managed to confirm or find out that it was
3:18 am
elizabeth, perhaps by going through her phone records? >> they did go through her phone records. they admitted it. what simply happened is the fly commission was so outraged that the post story was negative of him and out how he was running his administration that they wanted to find out who that female firefighter was. we know they subpoenaed liz's phone records. we believe they subpoenaed the phone records of several other female firefighters and maybe every firefighter working at the training academy. it's outrageous. it's a breach of first amendment wants right. attack on media' right to find stories and tell the truth. they knew liz spoke to the post when they got her phone records and looked for the phone record of the reporter from the "new york post." >> is it illegal? did they violate the law? >> we know they abused their power. they have the power for subpoenas but that's on a criminal investigation arson. not to investigate whether or not a firefighter said something critical of the administration. >> what did you think when you found out they went through your phone records? >> i was shocked: it's
3:19 am
invasion of my privacy and the invasion of the privacy of everybody that was in contact over said period of time. who knows how long they had my phone records subpoenaed for it's unbelievable. >> where does your promotion stand today? >> i'm not sure. i'm still waiting. >> steve, any update? >> there is no update. there is going to be a new fire commissioner. mayor de blasio has already made it clear that he is going to make age that. i want liz to get promoted now. if this current fire commission doesn't do it, the next one will. we will make sure she gets promoted she deserves it the fire department does not have the right to invade the privacy of a firefighter because they said something critical. we still live in the united states of america. >> thank you so much. >> coming up here on the show yes we did build that and now we are giving it away to the rest of the world. the obama administration about to hand over control

and never overpay. visit truecar.com the search for missing flight 370. the disappearance was in fact deliberate. a hijacking of some kind. joining us to discuss this mystery terror manual this morning. a retired army chopper pilot and the military advisor for concerned veterans for america, steve rogers the former fbi joint terrorism task force. gentlemen, amber, thanks for joining us this morning. >> thank you. >> why were we sure five days ago this was not terrorism? >> well, there was no evidence that pointed towards anything but terrorism. there was no forensic evidence in the scene. no debris. nothing of the sort. in addition to that you had two suspects. those were the individuals that had the passports that
3:32 am
were false passports. >> right. >> so that makes it very clear that something went wrong. and i believe, at least based on the evidence that we see now, that this airplane may have been intended to be used on a target somewhere. and theres with a struggle in the cockpit. >> if the pilots are not involved and they are somewhere in the indian ocean as we speak. >> does that make sense to you, amber? >> it does. i think an important element to remember here is that terrorists have been looking for ways to exploit aircraft and aviation for decades. they are always looking for the next gap or hole in security that they can breach. and unfortunately with this scenario it seems that they have found that hole just the way they did on 9/11. >> you were suggesting, ryan, at the very beginning this was terrorism. the malaysian government, interassuring the rest of us no it wasn't terrorism. you said right at the beginning yes, i think this likely was. what would be the point, however, of evading radar just to crash in the ocean? >> well, they were on the
3:33 am
way to target. for some reason they decided to abort mission. maybe there was a struggle on the aircraft itself or there was some sort of problem. but whatever the case may be. they were on their way to a target and decided that was better to land it, not land it, crash it into the ocean. at that point we have to ask ourselves who are the suspects. the most likely suspects are the two groups. east turkmenistan. and jamal, al qaeda based in indonesia and asia. >> why are we certain the two traveling on stolen pose ports. >> we are not. no one has taken responsibility of this. it may be because it was a failed terrorist attack. meaning that again, there could have been inend tended target that never got there. >> intended target not in china, however, so it was flying backward?
3:34 am
>> all passengers, all pilots. no one should be ruled out in collaboration with another very sophisticated knowledge of aviation of the 777 and aviation system including electronics and the communication systems, so no one should be ruled out at this time but whoever it was did have advanced knowledge and training of this system. >> there is usually chatter around events like this though that we pick up. isn't there? >> actually, more commonly not so much. that's because you wouldn't want to talk on any electronic communications about this plot as it is going. >> so terrorists are getting more sophisticated about that then you think. >> they know we are probably tapping their communications. as for the issue of taking credit. that's a perfectly legitimate theory they feel this plot failed and they didn't want to take credit. there was a study done only a minority of terrorist attacks are actually claimed credit by one of the groups. >> you get a really sense watching this, steve,
3:35 am
watching these other governments bungle the investigation how impressive u.s. investigators are by comparison. >> look, tucker, i worked with the joint national terrorism task force in washington, d.c., we, the united states of america, are the best of the best. we have the equipment. we have boots on the ground. we have what we call human intelligence. no one does it better than we do and we will find out eventually what happened. >> so, does this make you nervous as a u.s. citizen? they are clearly out there. a lot of us had started to breathe easy after 9/11. aircraft hasn't been used for terror in a long time? >> i think that we should never become complacent just because 9/11 happened over a decade ago. it doesn't mean that our adversaries and terrorist organizations aren't working day and night to find that gap in our security in order to bring down terror upon us. which could be quite possibly be the scenario with this crash. >> if someone from the cabin got into the cockpit. that's really troubling. because the rest of us have been assured those cockpit
3:36 am
doors are hardened and that couldn't happen again. >> oddly enough there is recent testimony terrorists through the end of 2008 he knew richard reid the shoe bomber and knew of the plot where they had several malaysians including a pilot where they would hijack a plane by using some smaller shoe bomb in order to blast open the cockpit door. we know the scenario right now was discussed by al qaeda operatives in the past. >> by breaching cockpit door and you want to get in and you have this elaborate sophisticated plan. pilots get up to stretch their legs and go get a cup of coffee. whatever ren. the door opens especially in international flights where they don't have same restrictions with opening the cockpit doors as we do in the u.s. >> weird whoever did this would go to extraordinary lengths to turn off radar and turn off the transponder. >> because tucker i believe they had a target. there was intended target and they failed.
3:37 am
you look at how erratic the altitude of that aircraft was. that to me seems like there was a struggle in that cockpit it could be wrong but it seems like evidence points towards there was a struggle in the cockpit when that plane as you say was turned around for a target. the next step is to try to find out what that target possibly was. >> thanks to all three of you. i think you will be joining us later in the show as well. >> thanks, tucker. >> thanks. anna? all right, tucker, thank you so much. we have headlines at this hour we want to talk about. a personal of interest has been connected in connection with with the possible serial murders in alexandria, virginia. 53-year-old charles severance was booked in west virginia firearms charge unreality to the killings. is he being questioned about his ties to the death of three civilian residents over a span of a decade. victims were all killed in a similar fashion within two miles of each other. he is said to have appeared in court on monday and being held on a $100,000 bond. president obama is relinquishing control over the internet and the united

president obama appearing on a comedy web site to encourage young adults to enroll in state healthcare exchanges. he says healthcare is as cheap as your wireless plan. >> most young americans, right now they are not covered. and the truth is that they can get coverage all for what it costs you to pay your cell phone bill. >> yeah. so, how do obamacare premiums actually stack up against the average cell phone bill? catherine is with campus reform.com and she has that information. catherine, thanks for joining us. you saw the president with zach who is doing the bidding of politicians tragically. but claim that it's actually cheaper for young people to pay into obamacare than it is to pay for their cell phone, true? >> not at all. actually, the average cell phone bill is half as expensive as obamacare. and i'm not talking a grab and go phone you get from supervise c.v.s.
3:53 am
average bill with unlimited talk, unlimited text, data, so i don't know where is he getting these numbers from. maybe he doesn't know how much a cell phone bill costs. >> i don't know that he has a cell phone bill. >> probably been a while. >> probably been a while since he had to pay a cell phone bill. >> larger issue though about the president going -- having to go on a comedy web site to try to reach young people making the argument, it's as cheap as your cable bill. i have got news for you, mr. president. kids don't buy cable. i don't know any young person that has a cable bill or a cable subscription. having to reach out to these -- >> -- though they should. >> because they won't be able to watch "fox & friends." what do you make of the president doing this. >> it's nothing new. i don't get it i'm a reporter for college news campus reform. i'm a young person myself. having people say they haven't signed up because they haven't had enough celebrities say they should. pretty typical michelle obama mall on "the tonight
3:54 am
show" knuckle heads hurt themselves partying. they haven't wracked up thousands of dollars of party related expenses in a year. >> take a look at some of the obamacare silver plans to compare to those cell phone bills that were 80, 90 bucks a month. washington, d.c., $181, pennsylvania 145. california, $175 a month. i mean, from you have got a pulls -- pulse on kids these days. can they afford this. >> absolutely not. every time i talk to a student on a cleaning campus or one of my friends, they don't have the money for. this a lot of them are unemployed or underemployed it. it it doesn't make any sense. if they could afford it obama wouldn't be trying so hard. he sounds like a late night for the price of a cell phone bill you could have obama ircan a. if it was something they wanted everybody would be talking about it and they would sign up. >> these are kids paying off the college loans the president is encouraging

them to take off. >> if you look at the equal numbers, this isn't just about young people. trying to trick young people into purchasing healthcare because he needs it or else his health plan is going to fail. >> look at the 26-year-old part of this. 26-year-old can still be on parents' plan. who he is talking to. >> 27 or younger. numbers for d.c. those aren't for people who are rich. that's for a 27 or younger person who makes $25,000 a year after subsidies, that's not enough money to be able to afford $180 a month in addition to all your bills. >> it may have worked though we got the numbers in when he went on that funny or die. the web traffic through the roof at healthcare.gov. do we know yet whether there were signups or people logging on and they never signed on. >> just people logging on to sign up. maybe they thought they could get health insurance for the price of their cell phone bill. if you actually go on, you will be able to see that's not the case at all. >> we have seen them going on, okay, funny or die, late
3:56 am
night talk shows, what do you think they are going to try next? you say this is a desperate attempt. what will their next attempt be? >> i think it's going to be the same. more celebrities trying to recruit more celebrities. look at the white house twitter or obama twitter pretty much sign up. like i said. sometimes i can't tell if i'm listening to the president speak or i fell asleep and there is a late night infomercial on. >> weird independent artists who are speaking out against the man in authority are all basically just political hacks carrying water for politicians. when did that happen? >> i have no idea. obama wants to be it the cool guy which is why a lot of young people supported him initially because they thought he was in touch with young people. is he clearly not because it's not working many young people can't afford it. no matter how many celebrities tell them she should buy it. >> bottom line for this segment this morning. parents if you are watching, get your young kids to get cable. >> bingo. >> thanks for joining us

proof paragraph good morning, it is saturday, the 15th of march, i'm an can a kooiman, we start with a fox news alert. it was a deliberate act. we now know someone made that missing plane vanish on purpose. this morning the search has taken a whole new direction. the breaking details just ahead. >> and this family built a pond on their own property. now the federal government wants to fine them 75 grand a day because the obama administration didn't approve the pond. how you can keep government out of your backyard? that's coming up. >> come on. >> and can you do this? >> cook eggs in. >> yeah. you can do this.

"fox & friends" hour two starts right now. ♪ ♪ >> well, good morning, it's 7:00 a.m. on the east coast. saturday morning. we begin with a fox news alert. missing for nearly 8 days. we are now learning that flight 370 malaysia airlines could have been hijacked. prime minister held a press conference this morning said someone on board deliberately turned that plane off course. that enis focusing on two new search indonesia to the southern indian ocean to the
4:02 am
kazakhstan turkmenistan border. elizabeth, what did we learn overnight. >> you are right. the "wall street journal" just released two maption if we can pop them up on the screen so our viewers can get a good idea and see exactly where that refined search area. we know like you said the northern search area is from northern thailand up to kazakhstan like you said and the second is from indonesia to the southern indian ocean. so that's obviously a big broad area but a refined search, something new that we haven't seen. the search is heating up really in two ways. focus on the pilots and the crew members. we heard from the malaysian prime minister hours ago confirm the plane turned in westerly direction and it did so intentionally. he also confirmed the multiple means of communication were shut off deliberately. experts say this required very detailed knowledge of the aircraft, including familiarity with the plane's circuit breaker, which is the first transponder to go down and also the computer system within the cockpit.
4:03 am
so officials are looking now to satellite technology communication because that communication link on this flight was, in fact, not disabled. that's because just like your smart phone we all have them, it cannot be switched off panelly. your phone is always looking for the nearest satellite antenna. it automatically pings and in this aircraft it pings every hour. so authorities say the last signal was picked up around 8:00 a.m. one week ago today. that's nearly seven hours after the transponder on the aircraft was cut. so efforts are huge. we are talking 14 countries. 4 3 ships. 58 aircraft are now involved in the search, which like we said has now shifted. well, one scenario, of course is, that the flight may have crashed into water. the idea that the flight landed perhaps on land is not necessarily something that authorities have ruled out. so, more than a week later and still so many unknowns. tucker, anna, clayton, back to you guys. >> so many questions. thanks so much elizabeth.
4:04 am
abrupt changes in flight 370's altitude what does this tell us about the skills potential hijacker may have needed. joining us is d.j. frost. thanks for jing us this morning. >> good morning. >> so, when you look at this altitude issue now, the erratic changes in altitude and avoiding radar detection, what does that tell you about the type of person that must have been in the cockpit and handling this flight at that time? >> well, those erratic it altitude changes climbs and decent suggest some kind of struggle going on in that aircraft. maybe a fire in the cockpit or struggle with possible hijackers. >> we had another expert on earlier said it was probably somebody who was highly skilled to be able to take it from such a high altitude and then bring it down will her to play the opposite side of things, could it be somebody who maybe had trained on something not as sophisticated and they got
4:05 am
in over their head? >> oh, absolutely. because that suggests to me then if someone is in a high climb and a quick dive like that, that wasn't really treating the airplane how it should be properly treated as far as flight characteristics, g factors things like that. what could have been also on the yoke where they were trying to do something to turn around and come back to the airport at that time. there is a lot of different factors going on there. now, if somebody did jump in the airplane and start flying who had no experience, then, yeah, that definitely could have been the case here. >> how much would you have to know -- how sophisticated would you have to be tech lodgely to disable the transponder and other communication devices. >> that's what has me scratching my head at this point. can you turn the transponder off, that's simple enough. to get up find the circuit breakers, that would take research and what other people suggesting too that
4:06 am
somebody could have actually gone into the e and e compartment. electronics compartment below the pilots and start turning things off. >> where is that? >> i don't know. i'm not really sure. >> give us a sense for non-pilots. you say it's below the cockpit. how do you get there? where is it. >> on some large transport aircraft there is actually a little hatch there that maintenance uses to get into this compartment and work with the black boxes. that's where all the black boxes are underneath inside this compartment. >> we were just talking offair about this and it seems like this may be -- they have been hiding in plain sight the whole time. everyone is looking at the passengers, right? these two iranian gays, missing passports. how much, with everything that's unfolded, does this suggest it may be a member of the crew and the pilots on board who may have ultimately taken control of this aircraft in a way that was not a part of that flight plan? >> well, as they -- i understand right now, they are looking at the captain's house. they going to look in there
4:07 am
however, you know, i saw the videos that they have shown of him. you know, i look at that and i say he looks like an airplane nerd. he loves. this this is his life. this is what he lives and breathes. for the captain to even try to do this i don't really buy it as far as the first officer, i haven't really heard a lot more about what his background is as far as his personal life. cockpit procedures are as far as opening the cockpit for other people to come up and visit during the flight. this could have been where the security breach happened because i'm sure they are different or maybe the same as the u.s. procedures. where we have a very strict protocol when the pilots enter and exit the cockpit flight attendants come up with food or drink. >> waking up with us this morning last saturday with news about. this we are getting some answers but not a whole lot for these 239 people on board, their family, their friends, how long is it going to be until we get any answers and, you know, is
4:08 am
there any chance of this airport or this airplane could have landed and that these people are okay? >> well, i originally theory rised a few days ago on facebook in my post that it could have been either intentional or unintentional ditching. or it could have been flown to it a remote location. however, it is hard to throw a tarp on the 777 hiding in the corner of an airport without some other prying eyes looking at it and raising some some questions what is this? is es. elaborate scenario to put together like a james bond movie. however, right now, nothing can be ruled out as nen demonstrated to us the bizarre can happen and until it's a reality, anything is on the table. it is fascinating. in this 2014. 777 should be missing like this. put w. all the technology that we have at our disposal. satellite imagery and everything else. dj thank you so much for

here is a quick quiz, how many times has obamacare been delayed or changed so far. if you guessed 34. you are right. >> that's a lot. but there is one change the government prefers to keep hidden, a waiver of the individual mandate under a hardship exemption for millions of americans until at least 2016. this change though was buried in a bulletin about a separate delay. so why so many changes and why the secrecy? here to discuss is james freeman of the "wall street journal" editorial board. good morning. >> good morning, thanks. >> so is this politically motivated? i mean, it is hidden in there. >> yeah. you had to search through the footnotes of technical bulletin to figure out. what they have essentially done is waived the individual mandate, what was the heart of this law until 2016. >> so that's not a small thing. >> no. >> the individual mandate is
4:16 am
not a bolt on. it's incident gradual to the success of obamacare. you have to compel people to pay in or it doesn't work. >> not only the heart of the idea of how you make the system work. this is why this law still exists. a couple years ago the supreme court was going to knock it down. john roberts caved to political pressure. chief justice and decided this mandate was actually a tax and saved the law because of it. i don't know how is he feeling now that they have punted it for two years. >> how much easy easier is it now? initially had you to show this hardship that had you dealing with a cancelled plan because of obama care, bankruptcy, something like that. how does itwork now? >> yeah. what they have done for i think you are right for political purposes to it avoid pressure this year on democrats unrunning for re-election is they have basically blown out the hardship waiver so that almost anyone can qualify. and, therefore, avoid the individual mandate. avoid having to buy insurance. avoid paying a tax. all you have to say is either my policy was either
4:17 am
show that your policy was cancelled by obama care your old one or just to say that you don't actually have to provide evidence that obamacare killed one of your policies. although it has killed a lot of people's insurance policies, even people who just didn't have one can just say -- >> -- without proving it so basically you are limiting the individual mandate until after the election is this going to work? we just saw a special election in florida where the democrat lost really just because of obamacare. are voters going to be fooled by this do you think? >> i wouldn't say it was only because of obamacare. there were other issues in that campaign. the good news is the candidate actually talked about entitlement reform, the other entitlements as well. you are right. obamacare a big issue. and will this be enough of a pressure release on democrats for this fall? i kind of doubt it. but the irony here is you think about that shutdown fight last fall, and have you ted cruise and barack obama in this negotiation. each miscalculating. cruise -- cruze was offering
4:18 am
obama a political way out and the president didn't realize it. on the other hand, you foe, here we have basically what the fight was about has been done administratively by the administration. >> yeah. >> waiving the mandate. >> 34 delays now and waiving the mandate a big part of the bill. why blow this thing up? >> you wonder why these continuing extra legal attempts to rewrite it. they keep waiving it. they don't have the authority to do this at the white house but they keep doing it. why don't they go the legal constitutional way and rewrite it? that's because they are worried if you opened up the whole thing to cop congressional amendment they might go after the subsidies. if you look at obamacare, that's really what's left. they have waived so much of it 34 exemptions and so forth but what they still have are these subsidies rolling in. i think worry that that might get cut back. >> they're 8 months away from a midterm election. it's possible the republican congress will have a chance to do that. >> we will see.

welcome back, breaking overnight. if you are just waking up. deliberate act. strong words coming from the malaysian prime minister on that missing jumbo jet if terrorists are responsible and we are -- we could possibly be in danger could this plane have landed somewhere else is the big question this morning. joining us now is a commanding officer of the "u.s.s. cole." welcome to the show? >> good morning, thank you for having me on. >> bottom line. we can't rule out anything, can we? >> at this point, no we can't. when you really look at it every theory while some may seem farfetched so was 9/11 at the time. so we have to consider every possibility as we look to this aircraft. >> yet, the authorities are are assuring us lment sneering at the idead that this aircraft landed somewhere. within the range of the aircraft are huge tracks of unpopulated agricultural land, desert. i mean, why are we positive it didn't land somewhere? >> i think the indicators
4:33 am
are at this point that it has flown on into the indian ocean. whether it could have made it back from the altitude it was at after the excursions up and down it made back to a point where it could simply land we don't know at this point. nothing should be dismissed regardless of how remote it should seem. >> yesterday i spoke to lt. general tom mcinerney, he posited this theory. i want to get your reaction to this. listen. i didn't believe that this air plane crashed. do i believe it was hijacked i do believe it landed some place. runways in pakistan. runways large enough over 7500 feet and large hanger and look in eastern iran. i could envision that terrorist could say use it, fill it up with explosives, attack u.s.a. aircraft carrier. put a nuclear weapon, a prototype on it, hit israel, the united states, do i believe that there are terrorist connections involved with it.
4:34 am
>> what do you make of that? >> well, while it may seem farfetched, i think the general is positing something that we need to consider what could this aircraft have been used for if it were able to land safely somewhere and taken once the passengers removed. to move the kind of things around to get to remote location that really have a slim possibility. again, nothing should be dismissed at this point. we really need to look at everything possible. but the search by the same token must continue in the indian ocean to hopefully find that debris. >> if it did land somewhere. what do you think that means for all the passengers and the crew that was on board? does that mean that they could potentially still be alive as well? we may see hostage situations? things like that coming out? >> absolutely. if it landed somewhere, i doubt that even as ruthless as terrorists are, they are not going to line the entire couple hundred passengers up and kill them get rid of a

potential leak issue. what they would do is hold them aside because of everything that you could hold on to as a terrorist could prove to be a negotiating tool when it comes time to conducting an operation. what's odd though to us, i guess is, that there is no debris, have all of these ships out there looking. satellite imagery are and everything else. they is not found a floating seat cushion anywhere. and given the fact if it had plummeted the way altitude changes, plummeted in the ocean. it would be a massive debris field. an item, something out there. >> it may be a massive debris field. but, again, we have to go look in the right spot to find it and we may not be there. even when you have. >> great point. >> even when have you sophisticated aircraft. poseidon. when you have helicopters off the uss kid out there trying to look for it that have incredibly capable radars to find small debris. you still have been to be looking in the right area. we are talking hundreds if not thousands of square miles of ocean.
4:36 am
>> days were looking in what we now believe was the wrong area mostly because of the incompetence of the malaysian government and really wasn't until the united states got involved and started coming forward with these data collected from engine transmissions that we realized it was wrong. why was there a lag period where the u.s. government was not really involved in this investigation? >> i think the united states has been involved from the beginning. i think one of the aspects that really hasn't been brought up that we need to look at is the united states has a lot of capability, especially within the intelligence community. we may have had a heads up on where this aircraft was, where it was flying, some of the issues. in addition to the engine data that was being transmitted. but we can't exactly give that capability up. we may not want people to know that we have the ability to track things like airliners and aircraft and where they are going and where we can can look around the world with our satellites. but none the less, having had that information, we can slowly begin to figure out
4:37 am
how to get that information out so that we can aid the search to find this aircraft. >> what's an end game here? >> i think the end game is to find the aircraft. >> i mean i know from our side, that makes perfect sense. from their side. can you see -- if we see this erratic flight path and trajectory maybe some idea where they were going, what's your sense of what their end game was? >> i'm not sure. at this point i think we would need to retrieve the black boxes to really determine what was going on in the aircraft and when. this could have been a situation like flight 93. while the aircraft was headed to beijing, when it turned and suddenly people on the aircraft say, you know, the sun is not where it was supposed to be. we have been flying for an hour towards the west. something is wrong here and the passengers start rising up and asking questions. that could have been coo have created the ishts with you start seeing the aircraft altitude excursions and issues in the cockpit. we just don't know at this point. that's why it's going to be critical. find the aircraft, retrieve
4:38 am
the black boxes and like air france then break down and determine what may have happened when. >> fascinating: appreciate you joining us this morning, sir. >> thanks for having me on. >> 3 minutes after the hour on your saturday morning. other stories making headlines this hour. a person of interest has been arrested in connection with the possible serial murders in alexandria, virginia. a 3-year-old charles booked in west virginia on a firearms charge unrelated to the killing but he is being questioned about his ties to the deaths of they virginia residents over a span of a decade. the victims all killed in a similar fashion within two miles of one another. severance is set to appear in court on monday and being held on $100,000 bond. the widow of the man shot and killed during a carjacking in an upscale new jersey mall has filed a wrongful death suit. jamie claims the owners of the short hills mall reduced security staff several years ago to increase its profits. the suit also names the

. this week president obama called for the department of homeland security to find quote humane ways to handle deportation. he says he is pain families suffer when separated due to a broken immigration system. most deportations thunder administration come from a arrest made at the border and not from ice rounddowns. joining us with her thoughts is katie paf issue will. katie, good morning. >> good morning, good to see you. >> the president believes our current system is inhumane. that's the implication here. is it?
4:46 am
>> >> we have a system here that deals with them in one of most humane ways in the world. there is pain caused by broken up families due to deportation. that pain does not cause deportation. that plane is caused by breaking breaking the law. a lot of broken families in the united states who have parents or other family members who have broken the law and gone to prison. the consequence for entering the country illegally which is still a crime is deportation and yes it tears apart families. that's because it's a consequence of breaking the law. >> this is purely political, is it not? the president was under pressure. met with the congressional hispanic caucus and they are against it. and so he is just doing the bidding of his constituency, is he not? >> it's a bidding to his constituency, but i also think it's a distraction away of course from the debate surrounding obamacare
4:47 am
that can bring emotional issue like illegal immigration back into the atmosphere and is teams like people like john boehner are interested in having that discussion. the real issue is that president obama is saying things that he is -- now that he couldn't do before. before he said he couldn't necessarily use his executive power to curtail deportations and now all of the sudden the white house is talking about using that executive power to do so. at the same time, border patrol agents are saying what is the point of having immigration laws if you are just going to tie our hands and not allow us to do our job? >> right. and so the debate over immigration reform begins with the promise that we will secure the border. that is the president's pledge. has he followed through on that? is the border more secure than it was when he took office? >> well, when you talk to people on the ground. they say the border is not more secure than it was when he took office as they have claimed. there are still people coming across last year when they were talking about some kind of deal on capitol
4:48 am
hill. we saw 40, 50 people across the border in the united states. we saw that the dreamer's program is something that increased illegal immigration. of course now we have the administration not being too honest about the fact that they are not deporting people as they claim. they are simply -- the border patrol is doing their job and catching people at the border and turning them back away. >> right. and none of this is the fault of mexico because it has, you know, completely corrupt government and bad economy. it's our fault. >> right. >> we are the inhumane ones. it's always america's fault thanks for joining us this morning. >> thanks, tucker. >> coming up, yes, we actually did build that and now we are giving it away for free to the rest of the world. the obama administration is about to hand over control of the expert. governor mike huckabee here to weigh in on that. and then our nation's heros return home with physical and invisible wounds of war. one organization is helping one paw at a time. meet those veterans and their dogs coming up. ♪ this is going to be the best day of my life

[first and foremost authorities have now released new details based on information obtained through satellite ping different transmission systems. satellite systems as late as 8:11 a.m. last saturday morning. it took off around 12:41 a.m. the plane's transponders
5:02 am
started being turned off deliberate braltly an hour later. refocused the search efforts to two major corridors, this according to the "wall street journal." if the plane traveled north it could be as far as the kazakhstan border and if it went south it could be somewhere in the southern indian ocean off the western coast of indonesia. all hands are on deck for. this 14 countries are bringing the latest technology on board for search efforts. all effort at this point have been removed from the south china sea. but they are also expanding the who aspect, meaning who were the crew members and who were the pilots on board? analysts say disabling the transponders do require detailed knowledge of the aircraft. also taking into account it traveled up to 45,000 feet before dropping to a much lower altitude almost 20,000 feet lower before traveling along one of those suspected routes. we have heard from family members. they been speaking to multiple media sources. they are still holding out hope that they will find

5:04 am
well. but here is another factor. this matters to everybody in the world. this is not a matter just for malaysia, just for the people of southeast asia. this is a matter for the world. if it is terrorism. then the very tactics that used could be used on us, against us, and probably were intended at some point for us anyway. >> listen to what john luchets had to say on the kelly file about this last night. take lafn. >> if this was a 9/11 style hijacking if some people have row posed among others, remember, look how sophisticated they were back then to carry out a successful plan they did 12 years ago. now we have 12 years of training. can you imagine what they could do today and change that objective to instead of crashing that airplane to now taking that airplane, having hostages, and then using that again. >> fascinating thing to me here, governor, might not be the passengers. right?
5:05 am
that the sophistication may come in the fact that they maive crew members and that's where some of the investigation is pointing right now. >> an air force fighter pilot friend of mine, i can't identify him obviously, even suggested the possibility, said that because the electronics on board a flight like this are digital, if they were analog wouldn't be possible. because they are digital. the same technology that is able to take a drone and fly it anywhere, if somebody could capture, could hack into that system, it's possible to take command of an airplane like that. now, fen, i don't know, i'm just telling you there is more that we don't know than we know. but this opens up so many possibilities and toted the capabilities of hackers in cyberspace, it's frightening really. i think there are probably every possible option that people are looking at. that was one i had not heard. >> right. fully digital? we know the incredible equipment on this thing radioing back to control towers on a regular basis.

5:07 am
malaysians, the united states, japan, everybody has a vested interest in making sure that somebody can't take one of their airliners and capture it and fly it off the globe. i mean, look at the chilling effect this has on people's confidence in flying. and even though there is an infanticimal of this happening the millions and millions of miles people fly everybody is thinking about this next time they get on the next airplane ouch. they shouldn't think that but it's just a natural human reaction. >> it's human nature. i want to go it developments in obamacare this week. among other things, the president did an interview with web m.d. which is big medical web site and on it he said something that i think i wish i had known before the obamacare vote. listen to this. >> for the average person, many folks who don't have health insurance initially, they are going to have to make some choices. and they might end up having

doctor and having higher deductibles, who could be happy with that. >> right. so this week we saw the 34th delay or change. you mentioned that it's kind of unraveling. why not just blow the whole thing up and start from scratch or rewrite the thing the right way? >> pride. look, the democrats have a lot of pride invested in this. they are not going to go out and admit boy we really screwed this up we took over one sixth of the economy and kind of like honey, i shrunk the economy, new movie by disney coming out this fall. the democrats are going to have to answer for it. they don't want to have to answer for that they want to pretend that somehow this is really okay. there are just a few little glitches. these aren't glitches. let's understand. there are structural problems in the way it was designed and it cannot work because you had all these people getting a piece of the action when its was designed. this is like a soup who anybody thought they had a spice they liked ran into the kitchen and dumped it in

5:17 am
security. diving into our personal data. don't we want the government away from our internet? >> that sounds very plausible. why don't we go ahead and give away the recipe for oreos. this ought to be something about the fact that the united states primarily it's military developed, you know, the whole concept of the internet. and what i fear when it goes into global miss match, who then has any ability to control. who has any ability to monitor? i do have fears because of what the nsa has done. i mean i think we all are shocked by the abuse of power. but i'm not sure that the answer to that is to say let's give it to some nebraska buoy columbus global world here that includes the russians and god knows who. the chinese. >> only because the obama administration has really inalienated the rest of the world. the opposite of what they promised to do to under all this pressure to give it up. hasn't the last week watch

5:46 am
christian. after being moved to a hospital last week for her treatment, a chronic stomach pain that came from numerous prison beatings, pastor saeed abedino shackled and denied medical treatment. wife of the pastor and returning jay secular american council for chief justice return now. thank you very much. mrs. abedino what you can tell us about and i feel sad even bringing this up but your husband's medical condition right now? >> well, it's been a year since many doctors in the prison and outside of the prison have said he needs treatment but he has continually been denied. there has been a few times that he has been taken to the hospital but has been denied. this time he was taken and admitted. and before treatment they shackled him and treated him very harshly throughout his a family member that was there and did not treat him.
5:47 am
>> jay, we have talked about this story quite a bit over the last year. i think it's still been largely ignored by most media outlets, unfortunately. how has the owed bama administration helping free this -- obama administration helping free this iranian iranian-custody. >> took a long time to get the state department really engaged in. this we do now have a situation where the president has directly called for the release of pastor abedino. the secretary of state has brought it up. i think there was a missed opportunity when p a plus one discussions were going on in geneva directly with iran. you had the foreign minister of iran directly across the table and didn't have a precondition of the discussions and the substantive decisions that were made an agreement to release not only pastor saeed abedino but the other two americans being held in iran. that opportunity came and went. i will tell you this: we have dispatched a team to the united nations again this week. they are there now. and i will also tell you we did not really talk about
5:48 am
publicly we're dispatching a team to the region for high level negotiations with various governments in the region work on this release. pastor abedino's health continues to deteriorate and as his wife just said not only when he was in the hospital not only did he not get the treatment he needed he was brutalized. we are going to have to look at all frontsdz now to work for his freedom and do it quickly. time is of the essence here. >> of course, is there any high irpriority for the u.s. government than to help its own citizens languishing unfairly. how is your family and children dealing with the absence of their dad. >> they don't hear a lot of the ups and downs and the beatings. actually, it gets harder. i thought with time it gets easier but it has been getting hard are for my kids can. they miss him more. they want him home. and it seems to be -- it's over a year and a half now but it seems to just -- we just need him home quickly
5:49 am
before -- before even treating him we just need to get him back home how horrifying it must be knowing that he has been ill and being beaten. jay, are you confident that we're moving towards a resolution here? >> well, here is my confidence. you know, tucker, the fact of the matter is, i want to thank fox news and you and everybody else that's been covering this because you are keeping it in the media and that keeps him alive. really a big part of this media advocacy is to keep the pressure on iran to let him know there is a spotlight on this where horrific acts took place last week where he was really handled very poorly. and really mistreated in this hospital. there was global outcry including out of a european union. their representatives. so that really makes a difference where you can keep it in the spotlight. frankly i think keeping it in the spot light keeps it aleif. the progress is incremental.
5:50 am
>> there is nothing more important, i don't think. thanks very much. jay mrs. abedino, thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> some of the world's most powerful women i couldn't know nighing to ban the "b" word. >> bossy. >> bossy. >> bossy. >> come on, they say it makes girls feel bad but what about boys? shouldn't would he be worried about them? they are the ones in trouble? they're the ones in trouble. we have the numbers and the debate. and while their husbands are fighting to keep us safe, military wives are fighting to keep a job. 90% are unemployed or underemployed. feel helpless? don't. how you can help is next.
5:54 am
. 54 minutes after the hour. while their husbands are protecting our freedom abroad, military spouses are dealing with their own battle here at home. they can't find jobs. a new study shows that 90% -- 90% of military wives, more than 600,000, are either unemployed or underemployed. how do we fix the progress? sheryl from the fox business network joins us now. they're discriminated against even while they're trying to find jobs. employs worry they're going to move away. >> first, they don't want to tell the person doing the interview that mair married to someone in the military. they're interviewing for jobs that they are underqualified for. they are really not supposed to ask you about your mallal
5:55 am
status. but it's all happening. especially for those women accompanying their husbands around the world. and with the military saying i'll get a portable job. well that's a nurse or maybe a teacher. but you've got spouses and ladies with engineering degrees. they want more. they don't want to put their careers on hold for their husbands. 38% of the pay that they're getting is lower by 38%. the exact same person. the exact same job. the exact same degree. and that's where the problem is. really about 25% of military wives have bachelor degrees. 84% have at least some college. >> where do they need to go to get help and get employed? >> it's interesting. a lot of programs are starting to be introduced. they've got the employment
5:56 am
readiness program. the marine corps has the family employment assistance program. these programs are great. and they do, they are really trying to start to do job fairs and things like that. there's a group called hiring our heros. they're going to do job fairs specifically focused on military spouses because the problem is so prevalent. >> we don't have a whole lot of time. but i want our viewers to know where they can go to help. are there ways we can volunteer? >> here are my tips. look, you're working and not working on a job as a military spouse but volunteering somewhere, those are managing skills. network. local chamber. go to the local chamber of commerce when you move to a new city. also, you have to get a nice interview suit. i know you're moving around so much and you don't want to have to carry a bunch of business clothes with you. . at least get one nice suit to

6:01 am
bad. what about the boys? shouldn't we really be worried about them? fox and friends hour four starts right now. we begin this morning with a fox news alert. the missing malaysia flight 370 was intentionally taken off course by someone on board. that's the very latest word from malaysia's prime minister at a press conference this morning. >> that means the search for the plane is leaving the south china sea and focusing on two new areas. >> elizabeth joins us live from washington, d.c. with the latest on this search. good morning, elizabeth. >> good morning, you guys and you're right. we have seen a con sister and brother shift in the search field. if the plane traveled north, it could in theory be as far as the kazakhstan border. if it went south, it could be
6:02 am
somewhere in southern indian ocean off the western coast of indonesia. the 14 countries bringing the latest technology on board and all their efforts at this point have been removed from the south china sea. so what prompted the shift? a new wave of details in regards to satellite pings. now that's totally different than the plane's transponders that were deliberately turned off. signals were picked up as late at 8:00 a.m. saturday morning. now according to authorities, the transponders started being turned off about an hour into flight. now the second focus, who was in charge of the flight? meaning the crew members and the pilots on board. disabling the transponders requires detailed knowledge of the aircraft. also taking into account it traveled up to 45,000 feet before dropping to a much lower altitude. almost 20,000 feet lower before
6:03 am
traveling along a suspected route. another unknown is the motive. if the plane landed and did not crash into the sea, experts are digging into where it is and why. >> thank you, elizabeth. thank you so much. with the malaysian prime minister revealing deliberate action in the disappearance of flight 370, what do we know about the potential hijacking, and what could have happened inside the plane? >> well joining us now is phillip, a commercial pilot and flight instructor. we just heard from our reporter elizabeth there that experts are saying it takes someone highly skilled and sophisticated to disable the transponders. is what about the plummet and altitude? could it be the opposite? somebody possibly trained on an airplane that was not -- and they ended up getting in over their head? it was a lot more simple?
6:04 am
>> well, it doesn't take a lot of sophistication to disable the transponder. those have an on and off switch system. that was turned off 14 seconds, i think, after the initial transponders were turned off. that is what demonstrates to us that it was act act of piracy. the drastic deviations in at constitute can be explained by a struggle between the flight crew to gain control by a hijacker or explained by a hijacker who doesn't know how to fly. i'm afraid when they cut the airplane to 45,000 feet, i think what may have been the idea was the hijackers were going to depressurize the cabin and incapacitate the passengers on the plane. >> can you keep the plane pressurized at 45,000 feet? what would be the effect on the passengers in the plane at that altitude? >> well, if they depressurize it at that altitude, they're going
6:05 am
to suffer the effects of hypoxia and eventually they could pass out and die. it may not be what happened, but it's within the realm of possibility. >> >> i've seen that idea that the crew put on oxygen masks and depressuredize it in a way to knock everyone else at that time. if you're sitting in a court of law and you have such an expertise in the area. you've been a slight instructor for 30 years. if you were presented with this evidence. you see the flight pattern. you see the altitude, what would you weak away with this? if a judge asked you what is your best guess? what would you say? >> well, my worst fear, and it is a guess, is that someone stole this airplane. and that raises the question as to why would they want to steal
6:06 am
the airplane. a boeing 777 would make a perfect delivery device for a weapon of mass destruction. just yesterday i heard a former deputy director of the fbi suggesting that very thing. that this aircraft could very well be somewhere on the ground as we speak being reoutfitted for some other purpose. what that might be remains to be seen. it's also equally plausible that it did ultimately crash into the sea. so we don't know at this point. all investigations deal with facts. we need more facts. we need accurate facts before we can draw any conclusions. we not attach an assumption to the item of evidence. >> of course, but from what we know now. woe can infer whoever did this spent a lot of time plan it. this is not a random act at all. this is an act of expertise. >> absolutely.
6:07 am
>> why would you go through all this trouble to get the plane in the ocean? there must have been some grander plan, no? >> that's my point. i don't think that the plan was to ditch it in the ocean. it may wind up being in the ocean because maybe the flight crew fought off hijackers and it would have been meticulously planned out. the plan was to steal the airplane and get it to somewhere where it could be landed safely and reoutfitted for another purpose. that's what my suspicion is. >> and maybe a failed attempt at some act of terror is why we haven't heard any groups claiming responsibility for this. what is the likelihood that it could have landed somewhere and maybe all 239 people on board could be alive? >> well, i suppose that's obviously a possibility. because we don't know. if you're going to speculate and if the mission was to steal the airplane for use later in a terrorist attack, i doubt they
6:08 am
would want to keep 239 or 40 people as hostages because kuwait frankly they would be an impediment to the mission. whatever that ultimate mission may be. i'm afraid these poor souls are probably lost. >> let me ask you from a flight training perspective. we saw what happened at 9/11. some rudimentary training. this situation, though, a 7777, getting control of the aircraft. disabling transpondering. avoiding radar detection and zooming off course, what does that tell you about who was blind the controls of the aircraft? >> that tells me who is behind the controls of this aircraft knew what they were doing. it was meticulously planned, as you said, and it's probably been in the works for a long time. this may just be the very first step in whatever their mission is, the final conclusion of this
6:09 am
mission may yet be revealed to us in the future. you know, you almost hope, you almost hope they find some wreckage somewhere so this worst case scenario will never come to pass. >> and yet the authorities who have been acting on a small amount of data have been assuring us from day one there's no possibility it could have landed somewhere when clearly it could have. it had the range. why are they so quick to tell us there's no chance it could be on its wheels right now? >> that's have very good question. i don't know. it takes about 10,000 feet or so to get this aircraft off the ground fully loaded. and there's a lot of islands out there that the united states and other countries, we built the airfields on the now deserted islands. it could have landed in a desert
6:10 am
somewhere. just because you land it on a short field it may never take off from doesn't mean you can't use that plane. it can be disassembled, put on a boat, shipped to another location, reassembled and put together some place else. >> unbelievable twists and turns. even throughout the three or four hours we've been on the air this morning. phillip holloway, we appreciate your expertise this morning. thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> all right, we do have other stories making headlines on your saturday. he was doing the right thing, but it was too late. corey laurie was the only person to call con edison about the gas leak. he didn't call until the morning, moments before the blast. just moments. turns out the dirt underneat the building was soaked with natural gases, con tragss 20 times higher than normal in some areas.

of butheyou don't feelat thmosi hintimidated.car, it's extremely simple. save time, save money, and never overpay. visit truecar.com . welcome back. this is going to be fascinating. democrats seem to have a new game plan. running ads criticizing the state of obamacare to win over voters. are they working? we asked frank to dial voters to see how the ads are working. nice to see you this morning. >> thank you. >> so let's talk about the first
6:16 am
ad with representative garcia. what did you find here? >> what's interesting is the ad itself works but it doesn't have an impact on how people will vot vote. >> tea party billionaires think attack ads can cover the truth. joe garcia voted to help you keep your existing plane, and joe garcia fought to hold the insurance companies accountable so they can't deny coverage for preexisting conditions or drop coverage when you get sick. attack ads can't change the truth. joe garcia is doing what's right for florida. >> it looks like really high numbers at the end just going up that cliff. >> it's a tremendous ad because americans don't like negative advertising. they say so. the problem with the ad is while the ad itself is effective, it doesn't change the outcome. the american people oppose the
6:17 am
president's health plan and the opposition gets deeper and stronger as time goes on. the more people who lose their coverage, the more anger and frustration. while that ad, the way it's put together is done quite well, if this person voted if for health care plan, would you vote for him? the answer is increasingly no. now you have two other ads. it isn't just health care. it's what health care represents. it's a sense that washington is broken. that wasn't doesn't work. talk about the senate. take a look at this ad. >> i'm mary landrieu. i approve this message. >> the administration is under pressure to tax back. >> you told them that they could keep it. >> landrieu has introduced the keeping the affordable care act promise. >> i'm fixing it.
6:18 am
that's what my bill does. i've urged the president to fix it. >> senator landrieu says president obama needs to stick to his words. >> this is a promise you made. this is a promise you should keep. f. >> here's her problem. harry reid is attaching himself and attaching senate democrats to the health care legislation. nancy pelosi is doing the same thing in the house. if you're an individual senate candidate and saying keep your promise but your own senate leaders are saying the promise has been kept, that message conflicts. and it doesn't work for them. >> can they learn anything from 1998 and running against bill clinton where they got crushed? they ran against what he did. they didn't run against his policies. in this situation, can republicans it seems to be right now we don't know what they stand for. we're not hearing anything from
6:19 am
the republican side. >> this is the time. the reason they did so well in 1994 is because for three weeks is what they focused on is what they were for rather than what they were against. then they return to the give and take. the american people are ready to vote for change. congress is at the lowest approval rating. washington credibility is at its all time low. if republicans spend the time in a block of time in august, september, explaining to the american people where they stand, they will take the senate. but if they don't, if it's just, we're not obama, they will lose. >> fascinating. fascinating look at these polls. doesn't seem to be a favorable situation right now for these democrats running for re-election. >> but it's not favorable for americans. the conditions in the country right now. >> yeah, and they're tied to this issue. always great to see you. thanks so much. coming up on the show, he saved lives on the battlefield in afghanistan. now a military emt can't get a

an anna kooiman spoke to one fighting for change. >> they get the best world class field experience and yet they're coming back from serving and not able to find jobs at emts. watch this. >> it is stressful. it's definitely nerve racking when i put my head down at night to go to bed. it's how are we going to get through the next day? are bills going to get paid? >> joshua harmon spent 14 years in the marine guard. he is certified as a military emt, he can't get a viflian emt job in illinois without going through costly and time consuming additional training. >> they kept denying it and saying no, you're not qualified. >> frut traded, josh says they receive the best training and hands on field experience in the
6:25 am
world. >> it's definitely not a skill set issue. that what we're trained to do is deal with the most stressful environments and perform these medical procedures to save lives. >> josh's situation as a husband and father of four kids struggling to provide is unfortunately part of a nationwide trend for veterans. >> one of the biggest frustrations that i deal with on a daily basis, and i'm going to get a little emotional about this is the vets coming back are not getting a fair shake. they're not getting taken care of. >> the job let rate for veterans who serve in iraq and afghanistan, 7.9%. much higher than the national average of 6.7%. >> so unemployment among veterans is out of drol and too much. so we need to do everything we can to help them have this opportunity. >> illinois congressman adam
6:26 am
kinsinger says something needs to be done. >> if somebody learns something in the military, they should be able to come back and do that in the civilian world. >> he got the emergency medical act of 2014. it passed the house but is yet to get through the senate and be signed by the president. the bill would make sure service members don't have to go through time consuming redundant training for jobs in which they're already qualified to do. >> i'm not going to stop until we find some answers. we're going to those people who serves us so heroically. >> it's unbelievable. zefbl states plus washington, d.c. still don't recognize the military emt certification. he is hoping this bill would change that. he's trying to expand this in the future to other careers as well. these heros are essentially, you know, driving military con vies, why shouldn't they be able to be

6:31 am
overnight the malaysian prime minister confirming the disappearance of the flight was a deliberate act. and just moments ago a customerable pilot laid out the danger out possibilities of a boeing 777 getting in the wrong hands. >> a boeing 777 would make a perfect delivery device for a weapon of mass destruction. this aircraft could very well be somewhere on the ground as we speak being reoutfitted for some other purpose. >> so could this aircraft on the the ground being prepared for an attack on the west? joining us to discuss, our terror panel and nushl security expert and foermer homeland security adviser for new york state. and national security fellow at independent women's forum. thank you for joining us.
6:32 am
does that possibility as our last guest outlined that this aircraft is on the ground and possibly being prepared for something else, is that plausible. and dutz that concern you? >> at this point in time, it's a big aircraft. it needs a long runway to land. nobody has identified that type of an airfield that you could take and land this. could it have landed on water? we saw it on the miracle of the hudson. thafls a miracle. a lot of things say that's not plausible. but nothing in this story has been plausible. >> that's right. how do you have a plane, and we're saying before we know where everybody is at any moment. you don't know where a plane is right now? so the expectations are all askew on the story. >> so the more we learn. the more it seems like there's a very organized plot behind the disappearance of this plane. who are some of the groups who investigators will be looking at right now? >> there are definitely two
6:33 am
groups that could have been working together or independe independently. the first is a group based out of china and also pakistan. and an al qaeda affiliate that operates in indonesia and malaysia. whoever tried this attack was clearly aiming at china. they knew the mfrt of the passengers were chinese. >> and there is -- i mean there are separatist movements all throughout china. but this is a probable internally for the chinese. >> they recently increased attacks in china. and the the reports out there are that authorities are looking at one specific chinese muslim that was on board the plane and had experience with flight simulation. >> the one thing we have taken off the table after 9/11 is cockpit invasion. most people assume it's impossible. the door is hardened. that would never happen again. is do we need to rethink that assumption?
6:34 am
>> absolutely we need to rethink that assumption. nothing should be off the table. a cockpit breach is not impossible. there's been procedures put in place to try to prevent it in the u.s. and faa regulations, but not necessarily something that international aviation has to abide by. so there easily could have been a cockpit breech. but we need to remember whoever is behind this. there was a very sophisticated knowledge of aviation. of aircraft systems, specifically the 777 as well as electronics. so they really need to be looking into the pilots as well. i'm not saying it's an inside job. >> the malaysian government said the pilots, there's nothing to see here. these are good guys who love their families. and the two iranian passengers with stolen passports are off the table, too. how much faith should we put in the assessments from the malaysian government? >> someone turned off the
6:35 am
transponder. you have to be inside the cockpit. that's one data point where you start. the challenge here is, of course, is it terrorism? this is a crime. egypt. where the pilots decided to just take the plane down. but like you've said. you have to have the sophisticated knowledge of how to move this plane. it's what "the new york times" is reporting that it went to 45,000 feet and came down and is maneuvering that way? it indicates this person is not just going to crash the plane. they're looking for a specific purpose. >> a specific purpose? so that -- i mean, that suggests we don't know what happened to the plane. it is not out of the realm of possibility that it is on land or crash landed. it could land on a much shorter runway than it can take off from. >> i think it's far more likely they intended to crash us into a target or probably crash into a target. someone was wrong.
6:36 am
they had to aboard the mission. >> but why did they go to such lengths to disable all the tracking devices on the plane? and to calm flauj their flight math? by zigzagging? >> if their intent was to crash the plane off the bat, it would have been in the immediate vicinity of takeoff. you want max fuel, max weight, max air speed. you want to bleed off all your fuel and things to cause a larger explosion. it definitely leans more towards they were looking for the use of a 777 for a weapon in the future. >> this is such a remarkable story. thank you for enlightening us on it. all three of you. we appreciate it. >> anna. >> tucker, thank you so much. onto oh stories making headlines. a person of interest has been arrested in connection with possible serial murders in alexandra, virginia. ch 57-year-old was booked on a
6:37 am
firearms charge unrelated to the killings. he's being questioned about his ties to the deaths of three virginia residents over the span of a decade. the victims all killed in a similar fashion within two miles of one another. he is being held on a $100,000 bond. this family build a pond on their property. now the epa wants to fine them $75,000 a day because they say it wasn't approved. the epa says andrew johnson violated the clean air act by building a dam. but he says he has all the proper state permits and won't pay a dime of the fine. . his case is being fast tracked to the u.s. senate. lawmakers are pressuring the epa to figure out the facts before rushing to judgment. and the obama administration about to hand over control of the internet to the rest of the world? the congress department
6:38 am
announcing it will give up its oversite. governor mike huckabee joined ugs with his take on the decision. >> i think we don't give up anything in the country. we hang onto what we have. weaver a sovereign country. people want to use the ideas? fine. but we're going to own them. if we develop it, then it's ours. >> this is seen as a response to the gov's control of the internet in light of nsa vains. and some of the world east most powerful women uniting to ban the "b" woshd. it may not be the "b" word you're thinking of. >> bossy. they say it makes girls feel bad. what about the the boys? should we really be worried about them as well? and then the president using his pen again to increase overtime pay. will these changes end up hurting the very workers the president claims he's helping? but first. let's get a check with neil for

6:44 am
earning more than boys. they're considerably better educated. so we have to look at where the world is now. nowhere sheryl samberg is in 1975. >> should we be worried about banning words like bossy? doesn't this come down to education and making our girls leaders, giving them the emot n emotional securities to become leaders? >> banning innocent little words is absurd. girls shouldn't be taught to be traumatized and panic and engage in censorship campaigns. it's not empowering. >> and little girls or boys shouldn't be bossy. sp you can be successful and ambitious without beingov being overbearing. >> and women should be authoritative. and yes, they need knowledge and
6:45 am
education, self confidence. but they're not going to be helped by banning bossy. >> and a broader issue with the whitewashing of gender and the differences between gender. there are significant differences between boys and girls. do you think this is part of the broader strategy? >> yes. i think what's happening is that sheryl samberg, very intelligent woman, but i think she's confused about the differences between boys and girls. she thinks if girls aren't acting like boys they're doing better. >> would you say victoria beckham, beyonce, sheryl samberg, condoleezza rice, you think they are all completely off base? >>. >> well, i'm not going to be bossy and tell them what to do. i will give my opinion, which is that it's misguided.

good morning. ten minutes before the top of the hour. a fox news alert. the case of the phantom plane we are now of the phantom. we are learning someone on board malaysia flight 370 took over and veered it off course. they are saying the investigation is now shifting to the crew and passengers. elizabeth joins us from washington, d.c. elizabeth, the search for the plane is changing, once again? >> oh, yes, it is, let's go over what authorities been doing when daylight allows, perhaps some searching. i say that because the focus like you said has completely shifted. all resources have shifted based on satellite dings picked up as late as last saturday. they are searching two new
6:51 am
corridors. if the plane traveled from a north west trajectory, you can see it could be as far as the kazahkstan border or south off the coast of indonesia. the satellite hourly pings are different from the trance ponders which were deliberately turned off about an hour into flight. when those stopped, excuse me, when the satellite stopped, it can only be a result of the power turned off or perhaps the crash. the satellite does not get turned off manually. now, naturally, a second focus was in charge of the flight, meaning who are the crew members on board and who are the pilots? could they have had any tensions? there is, of course, a consensus among analysts disabling the transponders requires an intricate circuit board and, of course, a very complex computer system. anna, back to you. >> elizabeth, thank you so much. over to you. the president is using his
6:52 am
pen again. this time he's ordering an increase in overtime pay. >> today i'm going to use my pen to give more americans the chance to earn the overtime pay they deserve. if you are working hard, you are barely making ends meet, you should be paid overtime, paerd period. >> will these help the workers that president claims they're helping. joining me is my panel. nice to see all of you this morning. how the president says the corporation, the administration says the corporations are making too much money, doubling profit in some cases and wages aren't going up, stagnation, therefore, companies aren't paying the overtime required. this is going do help workers. take it first, will it help workers? >> it's not going to help workers. it will make more work for used a the administrative level and make everybody watch hours, clock watching, the employer and
6:53 am
the employee. they will take people instead of having one person doing the job, they will cut that out and hire another person. you will have a lot of part-timers is what will help. >> unfortunate, it's not going to affect us, actually. because we have no one that makes that at that threshold. i think he should go see the show i did last night. they waved the flag in the great american dream because he's feel tag great american dream. he's learned a lot. this is born out of a lack of experience. it's born out of an idealism that just doesn't work on the ground. i got better suggestions for him. let's make the minimum wage $4 an hour and with tax credits and supplements to the employer, we'll hire everybody and if people hire those marginal guys he is looking to raise the salary up, he's all born about what's my needs, not what's my skill?
6:54 am
this country became great based upon skill level. you could sell your worth to the highest budget. >> sonia, i want you to get in on this, your company, how will this affect your workers? do you agree or disagree with the president? >> i am all for paying my workers fairly. i think most people will. i think the generalation the administration is saying companies are lush with cash and seeing record numbers in profits is an unfair statement to make to make ends meet. so the small business owner, it's very difficult. this is requiring to paid overtime. we will probably be a disincentive to keep employees on beyond that 40-hour workweek. as a small business owner, i try to do my best and pay my people fairly. it will make it more difficult with more regulation. >> let's talk about the regulation. this idea in other countries we hear about new zealand, right? it's incredibly simple.
6:55 am
you can start, companies are moving overseas, how difficult is it for you as a business owner in this current environment? >> every day, it's becoming impossible. then the obamacare. i'm in the vending machine business as well. now we have to put our information out. it costs me about a million dollars once that law is enacted. this is not going to affect my business that much. it affects the person trying to get ahead. i'm young. i want to show my boss i have something. i want to start earlier, stay later. i want to show i have heart. it cuts the whole thing right out. >> let's talk about this wage issue, you talk about $4 an hour. there is a wage you should talk about? >> there is. but addressing sa small business owner you are referring to. just this past week, it's very appropriate. please don't file for bankruptcy. borrowers file for bankruptcy. friday's for sale not because they are thriving and doing well. you don't put a company on the market. red lobster is for sale.
