empty. leaders in ukraine calling an easter truce, saying it would suspend military operations against pro russian separatists in eastern cities around the most religious holiday for many christians. the move comes following a deadliest day of violence between pro-russian militants and ukrainian troops there. and after a deal to calm tensions was reached by russia, ukraine and the west on thursday. >> in d.c. now, the obama administration indefinitely extending its review of the keystone xl pipeline. again, environmentalists are applauding the move, but republicans are calling it a political ploy. elizabeth prann has the latest from washington. >> reporter: the delay appeases the state department, because, quote, its agencies need additional time based on the uncertainty created by the ongoing litigation in the nebraska supreme court, which could ultimately affect the pipeline routes. two very passionate sides reacting as environmentalists praise a decision, citing potential environmental impacts.

>> they want to assess the costs of the keystone xl pipeline in terms of the carbon pollution it will produce. it's clear that we should not allow it to be built. >> reporter: republican lawmakers and a number of red state democrats who want the pipeline approved are blasting the administration. earlier in the month, 11 democratic senators urged the president to make a final decision. louisiana senator mary landrieu reacting, quote, saying the decision is irresponsible, unnecessary and unacceptable. alaska senator mark begich says, quote, i am frankly appalled at the continued foot-dragging by this administration on the keystone project. canada's ambassador to the u.s. expresses his disappointment as he points to evidence which shows the oil is heading to the south now in a more environmentally dangerous way. >> it's getting there on rail, and on truck. and they, of course, have higher ghgs, according to the state department. >> emissions. >> yes, higher ghgs emissions,

higher risk on a safety side and it's higher cost. >> reporter: the keystone xl could eventually support about 42,000 jobs and carry 800,000 barrels of crude oil a day. the government isn't saying how long the review will take. in washington, elizabeth prann, fox news. all right, thank you for that. a powerful 7 point magnitude earthquake seven miles off shore in the pacific ocean. no reports of injuries. a tsunami warning was in effect but has since been cancelled for the area and the nearby solomon islands. this comes just one day after another powerful quake shook mexico city, buildings swaying as people fled high-rises and took to the streets. authorities say there were at least three injuries, but report no fatalities. in a massive fire destroying three homes on the jersey shore, more than ten fire companies battling harsh winds to put out the blaze. look at this, flames really

shooting heavily out of the houses. a huge cloud of black smoke covered the beach front community and several other buildings in the area suffered some minor damage. luckily, no one was injured. investigators still looking into what caused this blaze. you might remember, this is the same community that was also hit hard after superstorm sandy back in 2012. all right. we're talking weather now. thunderstorms drenching the mid atlantic and southeast with heavy rain, raising worries of serious flooding this easter weekend. meteorologist janice dean is live in our fox news stream weather center with more details. janice, is it bad? >> yeah, absolutely. especially since we're seeing rain on top of areas that have seen already quite a bit of rainfall in the last couple of weeks. it's an area of low pressure. you can actually even see it on the satellite imagery here. spinning. i also want to show you real quick where we have this kind of wintry mix hanging around the great lakes and upper midwest,

improving conditions as we get into summed. let's go back to the southeast, because this is the area of concern where we could see several inches of rain again on top of saturated grounds, flash flooding is a concern, especially across portions of the southeast, alabama, florida, up towards georgia, the carolinas and virginia heading into sunday, because this low is just going to kind of hang around and bring us the potential of 3 to 4 inches, especially for coastal areas of north carolina. so keeping an eye on this. and we also have a storm system that's going to kind of make its way across the central u.s., especially sunday into monday, keeping a close watch on texas and oklahoma, up towards kansas where we could see hail, damaging winds, isolated tornadoes, starting tomorrow afternoon into monday. so again, this is sunday afternoon's threat. and then again on monday where we could see some hail, damaging winds, isolated tornadoes. otherwise the rest of the country looks pretty good for our little hoppity friend here. showers across the southwest in some areas. 92 in phoenix, so don't leave

the chocolate outdoors, of course. and then, of course, we're going to continue to watch the southeast. but all in all, not too bad a forecast. kelly? >> singing here comes peter cotton tail. >> i know. >> it was tempting. >> i like it. i like it. >> we'll leave the singing for you. i love the bunny and janice is like oh some of the chocolate might melt. in some houses, won't last. when we come back, we talk about a train full of passengers forced to a remote area, authorities searching for a bomb. we'll tell you where this happened. and americans demanding answers when it comes to the irs. and whether the obama administration intentionally targeted conservative groups. what the polls are telling us. that's next. cars are driven by people. they're why we innovate. they're who we protect. they're why we make life less complicated. it's about people.

to a top irs co-worker, lerner writes, quote, one irs prosecution would make an impact and they wouldn't feel so comfortable doing this stuff. so don't be fooled about how this is being articulated. it is all about 501(c)(4) orgs and political activity, end quote. meanwhile, a brand-new fox poll finding a whopping 67% of americans want congress to continue investigating the irs until someone is held accountable. joining us now, a democratic political consultant and guy benson, fox news contributor and political editor for townhall.com. good to see both of you. >> good to be here. >> so bazel, start with you. should or will criminal charges be brought against ms. lerner? >> you know, i don't know if criminal charges are sort of warranted at this point. certainly with these e-mails, it looks like there may be this

smoking gun that would trigger some kind of charges, be they criminal or civil. i'm not convinced we should be talking about criminal charges right now. but according to your poll, most americans want there to be more of an investigation, and frankly, i actually do think that that's warranted. >> yeah, and i'm glad you point that out. we're mentioning that for the sake of this conversation. guy, let me go to you now. how far do you think this investigation should go? >> i think it should go as far as the facts take it. this is a very interesting revelation that came out this week. it appears, as you just stated, the irs could have been co lewding with the justice department to introduce the possibility of criminal prosecutions into the arsenal of abuse against conservative groups. now, i think that's obviously serious on its face and opens up a whole bunch of new questions. but it's also brand-new information, right? we had no inkling prior to this week that the justice department might have been involved in this

scandal. so i think the fact that there is fresh information coming out. this was a judicial watch foya request that produced these e-mails, as first reported by my colleague in town hall. and i think it goes once again to deal a blow to the credibility of democrats who have for months been telling us this is over, this is phony, there's not even a smidgen of corruption. and clearly, based on the polling we just looked at, the american people are not buying that. >> well, let me pull up a fox news poll, another one, and the question is, do you agree with president obama when he says not a smidgen of corruption in the irs is involved here. 21% said yes, 72% said no. so bass i will, let me go to you on this one. do you think there is any possibility this investigation will lead a direct trail to president obama? >> i don't think there will. i take the point that it looks like there was some dialogue with the justice department that

may make them culpable in some respects. but another part of the poll says that not a significant majority, certainly not as lopsided as the numbers you just showed, believe that the president was somehow involved or informed. i don't think that that is sort widely held viewpoint right now. so there is some distance between -- between the white house and what's taking place right now. but i would also say that -- and i'm going to actually bring it back to a favorite subject that chris christie sometimes talks about. if chris christie wasn't directly involved, was there a culture in his office that allowed this to happen? and i think similar with this irs situation, we should be talking about the culture of the department. and the kind of culture that allowed some -- you know, maybe some targeting to take place. if we find that that is true, then i do think that some more investigations and some kind of perhaps civil penalties should

be involved here. but again, it looks like there is some distance between this scandal and the white house. and i think americans should be a little more trusting. that's going to be a hard word to accept right now. but i think they can feel somewhat confident that this is not something that directly came from the white house. >> okay. and guy, you know, i want to pick up where basil just left off. i know you believe, guy, americans want answers. so i ask you, how far should congress take this investigation? is there a possibility where they go too far to where they might alien ate those same americans who at the moment are looking for answers. >> of course. there's always a possibility of overreaching politics. but we haven't gotten to that point yet. we've had democrats obstructing every step of the way, saying no let's not look any further. this is over. let's close the book. this is a conspiracy. phony scandals. and sort of the list goes on. and what's interesting about this recent piece of information was that the suggestion that maybe prosecutions were in order

came from a democratic senator. sheldon white house from rhode island. so it seems like the bureaucracy, not just in this case, but in the original targeting scandal, which came from pressure again from congressional democrats, the bureaucracy, which is compromised of liberal democrats, were taking their cues potentially from elected democrats to go after the opposition. namely the tea party, a conservative group. so the question about president obama, i agree, with basil, that as of this point, there is no evidence linking this directly to the white house or the president. and i'm not here to make that claim because we don't know that yet. but when the president comes on this network, on super bowl sunday and says this was boneheaded mistakes by a small group often -- >> speaking of corruption. >> guys -- >> wrong on every count. >> basil, quickly. i've got to give you ten seconds and have to go. go ahead. >> no, listen, no one loves the irs. so i think what -- republicans can do, what democrats with do, but certainly republicans right now, if you want to make change,

maybe not -- not necessarily treating this as political theater, but actually going in, trying to make some significant reforms to the department. i think that's where you can grow some political capital. >> fair enough. >> accountability. >> okay. basil, michael, guy benson, thanks to both of you. >> thank you. coming up, intrigue, deception and spies. a new tv series unravels the untold stories of heroes behind america's first spy ring. a sneak peek, and meet the author behind the best-selling book, next. ♪

mother land, which was great britain. tell me what inspired you to write this. >> i was actually -- it was by accident. >> yeah -- >> i was looking -- i was reading a biography of benedict arnold and began thinking he didn't start bad, didn't start as a traitor. what was the framework, how did he shift his loyalties espionagn the american revolution. i assumed this had been done a billion times before and i went through the catalogues and hardly anything had been written and i began to focus on the ring. >> and when you got involved, what did you find out about them and how did they aid george washington? >> well it is pretty unique in the annuals of intelligence

literature, in that nearly the letters to and from george washington still exist in the library of congress. when you put the papers together, you have the autobiography of george washington's private spy ring. so it is an incredible story going from the very beginning to the day of the dissolution. >> now we're in season one of turn. what can we expect to see for the rest of the series? >> well i can't give away too many spoilers. you'll see george washington pretty soon and i think -- there is a lot of interesting stuff coming up, let's put it that way. a lot of twists and turns. >> let's talk about the characters involved in this spy ring. would you define them as being men and women of courage? >> yes. different types of courage. you have benjamin thommage and then caleb brewster, he has that

kind of fighting courage and then abraham wood space hall played by jamie bell who has a quiet courage but he's torn between -- between various sides and he doesn't know what to do. so it is not a gung-ho kind of courage that you think most people have. >> and quickly, because we are running short on time. what did you gain by going back and reviewing this aspect of our histo history. what has it done for you? >> what i found most surprising was basically how much george washington enjoyed spying the daylights out of the british and how good he was. you think he's the guy on the $1 bill but there is a -- sort of another side to him. >> and he is the general's general and the president's president and some of the first and not the last to do heroic things and he used the

information extremely well. >> very, very well. >> good place to be coming from a good old boy from virginia. >> alex, thank you. and much success to the series as well. >> thank you. >> thank you for bringing everything to light. >> i'm intrigued. a deadly avalanche swept down mt. everest. the search for the three remaining guides as the death toll rises. and a hospital staff's secret waiting list deplayed patients. sparking an investigation. >> never before have i seen a cover-up of 40 people dying. this raises it to a level that is un-precedeprecedenteunpreced. these are good. told ya! i'm feeling better already. alka-seltzer fruit chews. enjoy the relief! introducing the more everything plan. our best ever plan for families.

until i started gellin'. i got dr. scholl's massaging gel insoles. when they're in my shoes, my feet and legs feel less tired. it's like lking on a wave. dr. scholl's massaging gel insoles. i'm a believer! hello, i'm kelly right in for gregg jarrett. welcome to another hour of "america's news headquarters." >> and i'm arthel neville. information into the deadly ferry sinking in south korea as we learn the person steering the boat had no experience navigating that treacherous water way. >> and the death toll climbing in that deadly avalanche disaster in mt. everest. we'll have a live report. >> plus a 911 operator placed on administrative leave amid questions she failed to report important details that could have saved a woman's life.

but first shocking developments in the sinking of a ferry off the coast of south korea. that left 33 people dead and hundreds of others still unaccounted for. most of them are high school students. the captain and two crew members are now under arrest on suspicion of negligence. as we learn the person steering the ferry at the time of the accident had never driven that ship in those waters before. david piper is streaming live from bangkok with more details. david, what can you tell us. >> reporter: the ferry's captain has defended his position not to tell passengers to abandon ship immediately. he feared they would be swept away because there wasn't any rescue ships around. lee joon security and his crew were taken into custody failing to secure passengers in

violation of maritime law. >> at the time, the current was very strong. the temperature of the ocean water was cold and i thought if people left the ferry without proper judgment and if they were not air wear a life jacket, even if they were, they would drift away and face many other difficulties. >> the captain confirmed he wasn't on the bridge at the time of the accident but in a cabin. the third mate, a 25-year-old woman was steering and navigating the area where it sank for the first time. tracking data from the maritime ministry has revealed the vessel made a sharp turn before sending its first distress signal. it could have dislaunched heavy cargo, including 150 vehicles and de-stabilized the vehicle. drivers have seen no evidence of rocks hit. most passengers are still missing, most of them are school

children. they believe many more would have escaped if they moved to evacuation points before the water started to flood in. divers have managed to get into the passenger decks off the ferry. they spotted three bodies through a window but weren't able to crack the glass and retrieve them. and they haven't given up finding survivors in the ship. they believe some could still be surviving in air pockets. back to you, kelly. >> that could be a miracle. we thank you for that report. meanwhile, tensions running high in ukraine despite the government calling for an easter truce. pro-russian insurgents refusing to give up control of several buildings and defying a diplomatic agreement to disarm. le lard streaming live from ukraine. leland. >> reporter: this is truly a cold war-esque standoff with eastern ukraine caught in the middle. the west is supporting the

relatively weak government in kiev while moscow is standing firmly behind russian separatists that have taken over the regional parliament building up the road from where we are. for the first time the russian government military are admitting they are massing tens of thousands of troops on the ukrainian border because of what is going on here, not because of military exercises as they had said in the past. and many fear that the russians are going to use that military might that is based along the border to move into eastern ukraine much like they took over crimea earlier this year. many here also believe that already there is russian special forces aintelligence operatives on the ground supporting and organizing the russian separatist militias that have taken over a number of buildings and continuing to hold them. the ukrainian military is badly out-gunned by the russians. not much they could do if the

russians decided to invade. they have also announced there is a pause in what they call their anti--terrorist activities against the terrorists and that is for easter and they will not try to kick them out. but even if they wanted to go after the separatists, do they have the tactical ability and the ammunition to kick these guys out. both sides right now on the ground here realize their fates are much more in the hands of washington and moscow than they are in their own. the u.s. has said there is a possibility of further sanctions coming in the middle of next week against the russians if things on the ground don't change. that of course all adds up to the shadows of darkening clouds looming here on this easter weekend here in eastern ukraine. >> thank you, leland. and the question is what is next for the ukraine in the pentagon. the congress weighing boots on

the ground in western europe. wool talk about that with the national security expert yates. a hostage being held while covering the conflict in syria. the four member were bound. francois hollande releasing a statement saying the men were fine. in spite of the grueling conditions of their captivity. a u.s. drone strike in yemen killing at least nine suspected al qaeda militants. the assault targeting a car in the southwest part of the country, six civilians were also killed or wounded. the strike comes after al qaeda killed the region's deputy governor and after a video was released this month showing an al qaeda meeting reportedly being held in that country. president barack obama signing texas senator ted cruz's iran diplomat bill forbidding

the iran ambassador from entering the u.s. it passed the senate and house last week. with more on that, steve steve centanni from owashington. everybody agreed with this but the president's action was considered controversial. >> president obama signed the bill and he reasserted his right to accept or reject diplomatic appointments. in this case congress voted unanimously to deny a visa to the ambassador because of his involvement in the 1998 hostage crisis. the bill prevents anyone involved in espionage to enter the country. the president said he shares the congress's concern that individuals that have engaged in some activity may use the cover of diplomacy to gain access to our nation. but as president bush also

observed, curtailing my statute -- by statute, my congressional discretion to receive or reject ambassadors is neither a sub missible or -- a perm isable nor a practical solution. this is something he had campaigned against. >> this is a president who talked a big talk during campaigns about the importance of following the law. but he simply says, he can take it as a suggestion. >> now iran has said the u.s. action creates a dangerous precedent. kelly. >> okay, dangerous precedent notwithstanding, how or what type of reaction are we seeing from the bill sponsor which is texas senator ted cruz? what is he saying about this? >> he was gratified that congress was working together with the president. he thanked the president for signing the bill. he called this a moment of great clarity with the house, the president and the senate working

together. he issued a statement saying the combined support of the president and congress sends iran and other rogue nations the clear signal that the united nations is not a back door through which they can attack the united states of america. and iran can now appoint a new ambassador to the united nations. >> we'll see if that happens. steve steve centanni from d.c. thank you, steve. >> you bet. a final decision of the proposed keystone xl pipeline is being delayed indefinitely again. the state department said officials need more time to review public comments and assess the impact of a lawsuit that could change the pipeline's route. now lawmakers who support the pipeline are criticizing the delay while environmental groups are hailing it as a victory for a project they say will only pollute the land and air. joining us now is susan rushio,

from the washington examiner. susan, good to see you. >> hi, arthel. >> so let's talk about this. the reason behind the delay in your opinion and do you think this will take the political heat off the demes come mid terms. >> it was definitely a political reason. he was stuck between a rock and a hard place. if he said yes, this would anger his base, particularly pro-environmentalists that believe it will put to rest the green energy efforts they've been pushing and there is also big donors who want environmental and climate change issue to be at the forefront and they are very much opposed to keystone. and don't forget the mid terms are just around the corner so he doesn't want to do anything to anger the base. but by making a final decision, which he did not do, against the keystone pipeline, that would hurt vulnerable democrats in key swing states in the races and if they lose, you could lose a

majority of the senate. so the president is walking a fine line and saying let's put this off until after the election. >> why is this a taboo issue for the democrats? >> because for many, it is cut and dry. let's not do keystone pipeline for a variety of reasons, but mostly they fear what it will do is push oil as a resource than green energy. and they don't want that to happen. they also there will be an environmental impactine though the state department has put out several reports saying that is not the case. on the other hand you have democrats from oil states, marylandu, senator from louisiana, mark beg itch of alos angelesa and joe manchin from west virginia, a coal state, people want to push not just green energy but more traditional formgs of energy who are -- forms of energy who are behind the keystone pipeline. it is not a energy issue, it is a jobs issue.

people think this could produce up to thousands of jobs and could boost the economy at a time when the economy that's been sluggish. so for democrats, it is a tough issue for that reason. >> and then why, on the other hand, are the republicans chamming the keystone pipeline? >> well this is a great issue for them plaolitically right no. they will come on top on the debut because they can use this as a political weapon. they believe this is an emerging resource to produce jobs making us less dependent on foreign oil, even with the case in ukraine. they believe the more oil we produce, somehow we can take the pressure off of ukraine so they are not so dependent on putin for oil. this is all wound in together. >> and on that note, do you think that would or should cause the administration to push more in the direction of the -- of approving the keystone pipeline. >> a lot of people think he should say yes.

but it is delayed because of the supreme court pending decision in nebraska, but many in his administration, ken sallizear and his former nsa adviser believes they should go forward with this because it is not serious and produce jobs and make us less dependent on foreign oil when that is a key goal in the united states. so for republicans, it is a winning issue. they can show that they are already doing -- showing these democrats like mary landrieu and mark begich to push the president to get the pipeline. >> they are trying hard but not getting anywhere. >> that is right. mary landrieu is chairman of the committee in senate and she was not able to push the agenda. >> we'll see how it plays out. everybody is watching this. including you, susan.

thank you very much. >> thank you. a nightmare for passengers on board of a delta airlines flight. authorities sent the plane to a remote area at the denver international airport after it landed yesterday. a flight attendant found a handwritten note with a reference to a bomb. an fbi -- fbi said all passengers and luggage was screened but nothing suspicious was found. time for weather. dozens forced from homes and hotels in the popular ski town of jackson, wyoming. after a dangerous mudslide threatens to shift the ground beneath the homes. janice deem is live with more on this. what is going on there? >> it has been a wet season across the northwest and looking at wyoming, the good news is we have an area where we'll see dry conditions, and that is why we are seeing showers and

thunderstorms, but for now things are calm. but the damage has been done with the wet weather and the potential for the mudslides and rock slides that will exist throughout the springtime unfortunately. the other area of concern where we are deal forge the potential of flooding is across the southeast and florida where we have this area of low pressure spinning. you can see the counterclockwise motion on the radar. the potential for several inches of rain on this saturated region will give us the potential for flooding. so looking at your forecast, temperature and radar over the next 12-24 hours, still the lingering risk of showers and thunderstorms across coastal areas of the carolinas up toward virginia, which means a wet morning if you are easter egg hunting across this area. looking at temperatures, very warm for the central u.s. which is great news. warm conditions for much of the country. you i think -- i think this is the first weekend i haven't talked about a winter storm, which is great news. 61 in atlanta, georgia, 66 in

♪ [ singing ] >> it is really wonderful to hear the gregory and chants coming from that wonderful basilica. tomorrow thousands will join the pope -- as a matter of fact he is performing ten baptisms as well so it is quite an exciting thing to see to see they are celebrating the resurrection of jesus christ. >> and the music is so angelic and the acoustics makes you have even goosebumps. >> even here, right. >> very nice. they left their jobs to care for their children or aging parent. now major companies like jp morgan are launching re-entry programs to help millions of

stay-at-home moms navigate their way back to the work force. we are live in new york city with brian. brian, i love this story. i can't wait to hear the detail. >> reporter: arthel, one study found 31% of high achieving women left their jobs between 2004 and 2009, primarily to raise their kids, leaving five, ten, 15-year gaps in the resumes, making it difficult to find work. but more and more major law firms and finance companies like goldman sachs and jp morgan are offering job re-entry programs. eight to 14 week paid internships to help women get back to work. >> this is certainly, i think, a pool of talent that is untapped. just because individuals have been out of the work force for a period of time doesn't then they are not capable and strong. >> regan auto is one of 13 people in the real returns

progr program at credit swiss. she's been taking care of her sons. >> it is hard when you've been out of the work force for a while. things have changed, things work along quickly when you are out of the work force. and it is tough. and for a lot of places people worry you are busy with your kids and not be able to focus and concentrate on going back to work. >> on the in the program, regan is doing everything from excel and powerpoint training and she works on business projects based on her expertise. >> things like this can make people feel rested knowing the opportunity is there to take some time off if that is what you choose and not feel bad about it if you want to come back to the work force. >> the reentry programs don't guarantee employment with the company and they are highly competitive. 500 applicant as employed to the morgan stanley program this

kbreer -- this year and only 15 were chosen. >> but it is the idea of getting your foot back into the pool. >> exactly so. >> all right, brian, thank you. and coming up we'll talk about a frantic search for three people still missing after an avalanc avalanche. crews are combing now on mt. everest. >> and why investigators believe the deaths of dozens of veterans could have been prevented and the allegation that may have caused it all.

carsthey're why we innovate. they're who we protect. they're why we make life less complicated.

it's about people. we are volvo of sweden. search teams now recovering a 13th body on mt. everest after a massive avalanche yesterday. three people are still missing in the deadliest disaster of the world's highest peak.

dominique is live in los angeles with more. do we know anything more about the victims? >> reporter: well what we do know, arthel, is they were all searchers, and these are people used to get to the peak. they have been used back to 1953. a huge chunk of ice and snow broke away on the south face of everest and that fell on top of 30 or so shepherds that were working back down the mountain. we'll she you -- show you a map where it happened. it happened between camp one and camp two, on the screen where the red cross is now. one of the big issues is there is so much traffic on the mountain, and we'll talk about that in a second, that makes it busy and causes potential threats to the stability of the mountain. but really, we've heard first from people who are down at everest base camp that have been

describing the relief effort. >> so far they are -- they have found 13 bodies, both in body bags and hanging off the helicopter. people are scrambling and the teams are pitching in to try to get the bodies off the mountain and get medical attention to those who didn't get off earlier. >> jeff brown is a attorney from florida and a regular climber. had been planning for 45 days to head to the summit and it looks like his trip is now being canceled. >> and dominique, you talk about the traffic there. is there any chance now that they will end the climbing season early because of this disaster? >> reporter: well the families of sher pers that were killed are calling for that and the authorities in katmandou to do that. but we spoke to one climber who regularly visits everest around the year and he said some groups

will and some won't. some groups feel they don't need sherpers and so his concern there will be too many people on the mountain. >> you have so many people on the mountain, when you get a massive avalanche, if it happens to coincide with a team that is in the way, you could have something like what happened on friday where you've got 25 or 30 people in the way. >> reporter: yeah, about 1,000 people go up in everest in a year and there is a high season between april and may when they go. 1% of all climbers do die on everest. back to you. >> dominique, thank you for that update from l.a. we're talking about the crisis in eastern ukraine. still red hot despite a deal reached in geneva. resurge ebts reacting the agreement and refusing to lay

down weapons or leave government buildings, so what is the next step for the united states and ukraine as the showdown drags on with russian troops still near the border. let's bring in deputy assistant to vice president jany for national affairs. thank you for joining us. >> good to be with you. >> and you watch this thing in ukraine, unravel, unravel and even going back to the early days of crimea. what is happening here? is the united states being played by poout. >> well the west faces a dilemma here. either russia is responsible for what is happening in the ukraine and it is not helping or russia is not the responsible party it is the separatist and in case the relevant party wasn't at the table for negotiation.

putin has done nothing to take responsible for escalating the case by violating a 1944 agreement and taking crimea. i think evidence is strongly on the side that putin is supporting the forces and done nothing to delith legit imize the group. >> you see the boldness of the group and they are calling themself the people's republican and they will not leave because they do not recognize the current government in kiev, the capital of ukraine. but having said that, they have to get support from somewhere and would that be russia? >> well, it certainly would be from russia. and it may be questionable whether it is coming direct from the government. there could be nongovernment organizations ranging from organized well crime to other well-meaning entities that would

be giving cross border support. but given what we have seen from our own eyes, a mass of russians at the border. it seems they are providing support to the separatists. >> what choice do they have at this moment? perhaps could they send troop news poland. >> the limited tensions have not put the government in kiev in a better position to basically help itself. i think we should reject extreme options like leading with a military intervention or just sitting back and pretending as if it doesn't matter. i think we have a strategic interest in europe sarveing its own needs -- serving its own needs and taking care of its neighbors and we should provide legal and nonlegal support to the ukraine. that may be focused more on law enforcement, primarily, since rule of law clearly is a

problem. and then economic reconstruction, rehabilitation which i think is a close send. >> you raised a very good point and senator john mccain said he was disappointed in president obama for the way that they have responded to what is going on in ukraine and has gone so far as to say the president or the united states should at least be providing some defensive weapons for the people of ukraine so they can enforce the law and protect themselves against the separatist groups. but we haven't done that. >> that's right. and think basically we regrettably have been overly polarized by the politics of the last decade only thinking about iraq when there are middle ground actions that can relevant to the key government in kiev. i think europe has a major interest and credibility at stake for protecting its own borders ab allies. and we should encourage them to take this more seriously and

maybe we should be supporting them in the efforts to help these guys protect themselves. >> before i left you go -- let you go, have you heard about the pamphlet that jewish people register or face expulsion from the area. >> i cannot tell you about the source of the document and i can say those are insulting, inflammatory and insulting kinds of messages. we know in that kind of world, the neo-nazi world, they are not gone and they are not gone in other areas. so we should reject them and be concerned about a lawless environment allowing those kind of elements to spread and take advantage. >> steven, it is a problem, and the united states and the west has to determine what they are going to do about it, if they can. steven yates, thank you for your insights. >> thank you, kelly. right now, i want to get back to the vatican where pope

francis is presiding over an easter vigil there at st. peter's basilica. he is just beginning his reading, so let's listen in a moment. [ speaking in a foreign language ] >> okay, so beautiful if you are an italian. i don't understand it, but i get the meaning nonetheless in my heart. i want to tell you that thousands will join the pope in st. peter's square to celebrate the most holy holiday. that's why i like glucerna shakes. they have slowly digestible carbs to help minimize blood sugar spikes.

my dad has aor afib.brillation, he has the most common kind... ...it's not caused by a heart valve problem. dad, it says your afib puts you at 5 times greater risk of a stroke. that's why i take my warfarin every day. but it looks like maybe we should ask your doctor about pradaxa. in a clinical trial, pradaxa® (dabigatran etexilate mesylate)... ...was proven superior to warfarin at reducing the risk of stroke. and unlike warfarin, with no regular blood tests or dietary restrictions. hey thanks for calling my doctor. sure. pradaxa is not for people with artificial heart valves. don't stop taking pradaxa without talking to your doctor. stopping increases your risk of stroke. ask your doctor if you need to stop pradaxa before surgery or a medical or dental procedure. pradaxa can cause serious, sometimes fatal, bleeding. don't take pradaxa if you have abnormal bleeding or have had a heart valve replaced. seek immediate medical care for unexpected signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. pradaxa may increase your bleeding risk if you're 75 or older, have a bleeding condition or stomach ulcer, take aspirin, nsaids, or blood thinners... ...or if you have kidney problems, especially if you take certain medicines.

tell your doctors about all medicines you take. pradaxa side effects include indigestion, stomach pain, upset, or burning. if you or someone you love has afib not caused by a heart valve problem... ...ask your doctor about reducing the risk of stroke with pradaxa.

the inspector general at the department of veteran affairs are looking at claims that up to 40 veterans from arizona waited for the v.a. medical center in phoenix with a wait list and causing veterans to die. lawmakers are demanding answers. >> they have fought for this country and they deserve the best health care and we are committed to ensuring that they receive that. >> never before have i seen an allegation of the cover-up of 40 people dying. this raises it to a level

that -- that is unprecedented and that is why we have to use every instrument of government to get the bottom of this and if it is true, hold those accountable. >> the average wait time for veterans assigned to that facility is 55 days. a 911 dispatcher is being placed on administrative leave following the murder of a mother of three in denver. now police say christine kirk was shot to death by her husband after he ate marijuana candy. now investigators are questioning whether the dispatcher followed proper procedure during that 911 call. fox news legal analyst alise wheel is here and heather hanson, a defense attorney joining us now. ali alise, i want to start with you. and i want to be on record, we are not blaming the department. but i wanted to ask you if the denver police department could be find culpable. they are investigating that angle and is it possible that

the family could file a wrongful death lawsuit? >> absolutely. there were 14 minutes that transpired between the time the woman picked up the phone to call 911 and the time they got there and she was shot dead. so that is a long time to wait for 911, to the dispatcher give the information and code it correctly and number one, two, three. >> what high priority call was this. was that done properly? did the cops actually get the message or not? 14 minutes is a long time. so they are looking at a wrongful death lawsuit. one settled in 2010 in randolph county for $2010 in 2010. >> and there is a dispatch report that says that the female dispatcher who is alise talked about, she was hired a few months ago and is now on leave. there was a report that the officers never got the information, so if we talk about liability is there any way something could happen to the

dispatcher. >> i feel horrible for the dispatcher. she did everything appropriat y appropriately. and it sounds like things escalated over the course of the call it. started as a domestic violence call and at the time the woman was saying the gun is in the safe. >> but she kept saying hurry up, please hurry up. >> and one more thing there were three little kids in that. >> and she said that, i've got my three kids here and they are scared, he's hallucinating. >> but the thing is -- the reality is 14 minutes is less than the average for this for denver and for the united states. unfortunately, we just don't have the people to respond that quickly. this dispatcher did everything right in my mind. >> let me say this. because in 2013, priority one calls, the highest priority, had a 14-minute response time prior to two calls, had a 20.38 response time and in 2014, this

year, priority calls have a 13.17 response time. >> she made this a priority call and it came within the time. >> and that is the amount of time that denver has within the time that arthel articulated but that doesn't mean it is right or escape legal liability for coming in 14 minutes when you have a gun and three little kids in the house. >> there are some cases that can go forward but it has to be more than a judgment mistake, it has to be willful or wanton misconduct to pursue a case for someone who works for the government. i think the better case is against the person who provide the the marijuana candy. >> let' bring in the drug angle. this guy had karma candy, orange ginger and pre-98 cush preroll, which is a joint. do you think the store could bear any responsibility that sold this to him?

>> possibly but more so, because colorado and washington legalize marijuana up to one ounce so you can buy as many one ounces as you want. >> there is a limit on how much they bake into the cookies, and you can buy as much as you want to. >> but agree on this. i think it is easy to go against the manufacturer. there is no cap on damages so you can get as much money as the jury awards, but more important the number of milligrams in each candy is not being appropriately testing and now that is legal it is something you will see them getting liability insurance and covering for these type of events. >> and heather may be right. that could be happening now because it is recently passed and so we are seeing all of these things. and for the candy company, what about when people go buy this in colorado and go to another state and what are a legal liability of implications at that state.

>> we blame the candy company because the husband had eaten some of the candy. but before i say goodbye to you, we do have a mother that was killed with three young kids that are now staying with family and they have set up a local bank account. >> and it took 14 minutes for 911 to get there. >> alise wheel and heather hanson. good to see you both. kelly. heading back to the wild west, some hot goods are up for grabs. ♪ [ banker ] sydney needed some financial guidance so she could take her dream to the next level. so we talked about her options. her valuable assets were staying. and selling her car wouldn't fly. we helped sydney manage her debt and prioritize her goals, so she could really turn up the volume on her dreams today...and tomorrow. so let's see what we can do about that... remodel. motorcycle.

incredibly, the free world perceives this barbarity as an abstraction, only around the easter and christmas holidays do western powers utter the required sympathies. as syria implodes the remaining followers of christ walk a dangerous road in a civil war that is turning into one of the worst extinctions of a people since the end of the second world war. although assad has traditionally protected the christian minority, his enemies have made them sorry for it. churches burned, children starve, priests and nuns endure kidnapping and murder, the ancient spirit fills the air. perhaps the sickening death of a jesuit priest last month might provide the inspiration for paying close attention. before he was beaten and shot,

he spent 50 years of his life working for the poor and suffering in the old city of homs, protecting both muslim and christian. the islamist fanatics on the rebel side continue their unholy march in racca where they've already installed sharia law. to stay alive, the people must pay tax and submit to a harsh islamist rule. just a few days ago, antesemitic pamphlets surfaced in ukraine demandi demanding jews register themselves. s could that president obama and kerry show the same disdain over

christian slaughter? david cameron called this persecution a systematic targeting of christians. and the member of the house of lords, david alton rebuked his colleagues for arguing about the rights of foxes instead of the killing of women and children. he said, this stems from the misplaced belief that their silence about radical islamist groups represents tolerance. in reality, it stems from fear and indifference. we wish an american would stand up and second the thought. a bidding battle for memorabilia from one of the most famous cowboys in the wild wild west, wyatt earp selling at auction for $225,000.
