religion on campus, political correctness. >> okay, dan. that's it for this week's show. thanks to my panel and all of you for watching. i'm paul gigot. hope to see you all right here next week. start with the fox news alert about 20,000 acres now have been consumed near san diego. wildfires continue to tear across that region. so far, a 57-year-old man has pled not guilty to arson charges in allegedly starting one of those devastating fires. america's nehead quarters. >> thousands of firefighters remain on the frontline battling those flames. they are getting help from military and civilian helicopters swooping in and dropping water on the flames. and at least eight homes are gone, plus an apartment building with 18 units. >> i don't know how high the

flames were. probably 50 feet. >> everything is in there. everything is gone. >> do they know how many of these fires at this point were caused by arsonists? >> reporter: up to six fires they are dealing with today, fire officials say they believe at least some of those must have been lit on purpose. investigation is ongoing at the moment. they should know next week. we will -- it will give us an idea next week how they were started. we have seen three people being arrested in the past few days in connection to some of the smaller fires it is authorities are saying that the penalties of those people may pace with the severity of the damage. >> the charges for someone who commits arson range from 16 months to ten years to life in prison depending on the

circumstances these were -- two small fires but at this point we have -- don't know the full extent and we don't have information as on whether they relate to anything else. and so we will continue that investigation. >> we learned that the fire here in north county of san diego was started by construction of the backhoe digging a trench. 1 1/2 thousand acres that got torched as a result. >> you hate to see the stories of people losing their homes. so where do the fire crews stand with the six large fires you mentioned that are still rages in san diego county? >> they are still raging. containment improving by the hour. we understand that -- we will show you the map. lit give you a much better idea of what is going on. you can see just how it spreads around the area.

the fire is moving east towardses ctowards es k dash - escodi -- escondido. about two-thirds of the fires are almost contained now. you know, it will take a lot of effort. still 1400 firefighters staying in the area despite the improvement in the conditions here. and they are going to probably stay until next week. this is a case that's going to be a tough fight. a lot of people in shock how intense it was so early in the season. back to you. >> we are early. it is only may, may 15, 14, 17. not sure. just rea for sure. thank you for that update there from san diego. the other good news -- as we look at the extreme weather

center. other good news is the weather is beginning to cooperate a little bit. getting firefighters a hand. hi, j.d. >> yes. this is the setup we had last week. santa ana winds and high pressure across the great basin and clockwise throw in towards the canyons and passes and the valleys and that's what gives us the potential for gusty winds, drying out the conditions so the temperatures were high. some cases we were breaking record high temperatures last week. 100-degree range. very low humidity but as you mentioned we have this onshore flow right now. you can actually almost see it with the satellite radar imagery. all of this onshore flow from the ocean. an ocean influence is bringing the temperatures down and relative humidity up which is excellent news for them. however the fire danger shifted a little more eastward. we are seeing winds certainly perk up across the great basin. and the four corners area. along the coastline, that's

where temperatures are starting to decrease and humidity is going up and the winds are going down. great news. mid 70s up into the 80s tomorrow even better. around the los angeles area with mid 70s and even heading into monday and tuesday, temperatures dropping significantly. the bad news is the drought monitor is incredible. we are into 100% severe to exceptional drought across this area and the deficits are amazing. over a foot deficit here for parts of redding. los angeles, you need over eight inches to get on par for your rainfall season. we weren't p aren't going to see any significant rain until october and november. so we have a lot of month goes before we will see significant rainfall. we will see temperatures going back to average across portions of california in towards the southwest. again, which is welcomed news for firefighters. it is going to be a very long

wildfire season. that is for sure. >> thank you very much for that update. new fallout in the disturbing scandal that has been rocking the department of federal affairs. in the wake of the allegations the records were falsified, in order to give the appearance patients were being scenically when apparently that may not have been the case. critics say the allege fake list and waits cause deaths. the v.a.'s undersecretary of shk stepping down even though he was set to row tire this year anyway. many lawmakers say that much more needs to be done to fix the problems at the v.a. and senator john mccain spoke about that in the weekly radio address. >> clearly the v.a. is suffering from systemic cultural problem that congress cannot resolve with peace meiece meal response.

stretching from its top political leadership all the way through to its career civil servants who as recently suggest that may have been too often motivated by all the wrong incentives and rewards. >> the administration wants to wait for the inspector general's report. it is investigating before taking any more action. much more about the very troubling allegations in a live report later in our newscast. meanwhile, there are new developments in the tragic mining disaster in western turk write. with government officials say that that the search for the missing miners is now over. after the last two bodies were recovered more than 300 people now confirmed dead in the underground fire with public anger spilling into the streets. police using tear gas and water cannons on protesters. many of them calling for the current government to resign over the disaster. connor powell live with more from jerusalem.

>> reporter: officials say they have located the final would bodies and the operation moved from a certain much operation into an investigation of what caused this now. more than 300 people died making it the most deadly maining accident in history. 485 people did escape or were rescued. many that survived complained about the safety procedures at the mine. they say the accident could have easily been avoided. still government and mining officials have insisted the disaster was not meg generals and the mine was regularly inspected but the accident and turkish government's response fueled public anger across the country. the turkish prime minister has come under fire for his reaction to the disaster which critics claim he has been insensitive and political protests have erupted. police arresting protesters, using water cannons, rubber bullets and using harsh critics to disperse crowds around the mining area. last summer we saw similar

protests spread across turkey when police cracked down on environmental protesters in istanbul and increasingly turkish society is divided between opponents. you fight being whether or not the government there is undemocratic and authoritarian. arthel, there is a divide in turkey. we saw a huge protest last year whether or not the mining accident will cause nationwide protests ask still up in the air. what we are seeing continually in turkey is that there is a parting of the two camps. >> thank you very much for that update in jerusalem. >> brand-new fox poll shows exactly what people think of the new congressional investigation of benghazi. this as we are now learning new details about who exactly will be working for that committee

behind the scenes. we will take a look straight ahead. >> somebody briefed her about this and they should be fired. take it on the way you always have. live healthy and take one a day women's 50+. a complete multivitamin with 7 antioxidants to support cell health. age? who cares.

deceitful about the event surrounding benghazi former political director, matt, under president bush. good to see both of you gentlemen. >> great to be here. >> matt, i will start with you on this one. do you believe that president obama and former secretary of state hill clinton were playing a game of deception and support your answer for me. >> i don't know if i want to make the charge they were deceiving the american people. clearly the -- they were deceiving congress and not giving all of the information congress had asked for. that's the reason why we are having this special committee because congress has been asking for documents and for answers and the administration has been stonewalling them. we only got these e-mails after a court ordered them to be released. congress has no choice but to do this probe and i think that hill clinton's real problem is not

with republicans on the hill. it is with the fact that the american people in the poll pout the screen shows that they are questioning her truthfulness. it is the american people. >> stephen, how do you see it? >> i think the same poll also says that two-thirds of the respondents think that the republican committee hurt political reasons. a poll that says that americans think that politicians were playing politics. that's not that surprising. to matt's point, though, this isn't a committee that needs to happen. it is -- you already have five congressional oversight panels and seven reports and you have had over a dozen hearings. i'm not exactly sure what the republicans were doing over the last two years. look, they have a right to -- establish another committee if they wanted. that's congress' right. it is not what the american people want them to do. what the american people want them to do is work on jobs, economy, deficit, and benghazi doesn't even register on people's radar. what it feels like is an increasingly desperate effort by the republicans to find some political issue that sticks

before the midterm. >> let me judgment in there. the new majority staff director of the committee gave us an exclusive statement and it was one-sentence statement. listen, i understand that my job is to find the facts through a pair process. before i get you to respond i want to pull up another fox news poll. one of you hinted at this one. it is the reese reason republicans in congress are investigating benghazi. 63% saying political gain and 30% are saying it is to get to the truth. is it possible to achieve a fair process. >> i think it would be possible to achieve a fair possible 'fess they had a balanced committee which democrats asked for. if they want to demonstrate it isn't just another political witch-hunt. but, again, look, republicans -- >> wait. let me stop you. what -- what would you feel would constitute a fair and balanced committee? >> committee of 12, six

democrats and six republicans. pet republicans talking about unbalanced committee that has a majority -- >> the problem with that -- the problem with that -- >> one at a time. >> the problem with that is we have an election and the american people said they wanted the republicans to be the majority. that would fly in the face of what the american people want. you have to remember, we have four dead brave souls here and they deserve answers. why are we having this committee? here is what we don't know. what was the president told before september 11, 2012 when he was briefed. what was he told when susan rice went on television and was not accurate as to the reasons of the attacks. that's when we don't know. you don't know the answer and i don't know the answer. it is time we got the plans i don't know what republicans have been doing for the last two years. maybe they have been discussing "mad men" episodes on the committees. there are reports this week leading republicans who have been investigate thing, mike rogers and darryl issa, don't

want this committee. it makes them like what have they been doing for two years. >> let me judgment in here and you have to be brief. i'm out of time. do you think if this is going to be dragged out for anybody's political gain do you think people will get sort of bored with the process? >> yes. >> come november, we are not talking about the fact we acknowledge what happened was horrible, the people lost their lives. four americans lost their lives. not talking about that. the process of getting there. >> i think it won't change much politically. people on the left will see it as witch-hunt and people on the right see it as a coverup. it won't change much. >> it better change for hillary clinton. she better get the american people to think she is not lying on this. >> or she won't up up 30 points. >> i will leave it there. long way away from 2016. we have a lot time to think about it. thanks to both of you. >> thank you. >> thank you.

phase of rules. according to the national security for bio surveillance, cooperation within the scientific community and public and private health care provide serz seb shall -- essential to achieve a consistent and reliable surveillance system. but some including our next guest is worried about what that means. try law joins us from branson, missouri. >> what is wrong with the government trying to keep tabs on pio threats. >> it is called the national health security strategy, which makes it very clear that it is not just about bio threats, but it is about looking at your health, looking at your behavior, looking at all of those ingredients of your daily

life and using your medical records to do. so the plan makes it very clear that they want to try and build up the nation's resilience by monitoring the data and by impacting people's lives on a regular basis. and so what is also very clear is they plan to use election ronnic medical records to have this kind of access. the plan calls for integrating medical records and data systems between government, clinics and hospitals and it means the american people will have to medical privacy from the medical government and they call for research using this data which means we won't have any privacy from the government doing the research and we say is this one of the reasons why the recovery act of 2009 required the hospitals and doctors to have records interoperable with the government by january of 2015.

was this part of the scandal to get into our records and monitor us on a regular basis. >> and what if they say this is needed to help us. the director of science and technology said the benefit for health and security of all americans and indeed the world's people is needed for this extremely worthwhile effort. the government would say this is the way they protect all of us from potential problems and track disease and threats. >> good intentions are often the way the government moves to assume more power and to build itself larger and larger and to intrude into the public. but the interesting thing is a gao report in 2010 looked at the different snem system -- systems, bio triggers, they are not very effective and limited in their capacity.

and there were cost concerns. but the american people know we have constitutional rights that the government is not allowed to get into our data unless they have a -- >> i'm sorry to erupt. we have 15 seconds left. what should then be done? >> well, right now they are asking for the public to comment on this plan for the intrusion. and so people can go to our website at cch freedom.org sand we have posted a sample comment that people can use and documents that they are asking for the public's comments on. so we must start and state's must start to take control over people's health and their privacy and get it back. >> okay. that is the message and the plan. thank you for joining us from branson, missouri. and we'll be right back. options and a retirement planning calculator. now i know "when" i'm going to retire. not "if." ugh. heartburn. did someone say burn?

and putin and russia digging in their heels in ukraine and those on capitol hill may call for even more sanctions. new fallout over the department of veterans affairs scandal in the wake of reports from across the nation of v.a. employees falsifying records. robert petzel, the under secretary of health care, is stepping down but many lawmakers say much more needs to be done to address the health care needs of our veterans. with more now, molly henneberg is live in washington. >> reporter: john mccain is one of those lawmakers. he said taupe in the gop radio address that there needs to be a total refocusing of the v.a. on the core mission of serving veterans. this is as investigations have begun or will into treatment delay or falsified records at

v.a.'s in ten states. >> it has been months since allegations that veterans died when the information became public. today the obama administration has not reacted. this has created a look of confidence for the v.a., the very agency that was established to care for them. >> eric shinseki demanded the immediate resignation of petzel who was scheduled to retire later this year but stepped down last year. secretary shinseki said he is not going anywhere and has promised the v.a. will do more to improve timely access to healthcare. but one mox fuse analysts say v.a.'s across the country may not have the money and the personnel to do that.

>> they can't meet the frequency of care with the resources they have, i imagine and they are creating phony records. and that is a symptomatic problem of the real cause of the issue. >> for now president obama is standing behind secretary shinseki and the white house wants to wait for the inspector general report on operations of v.a. hospitals before taking additional steps. senator john mccain said veterans can't wait that long. >> molly. thank you for that report. and we're going to dig more into the scandal of veterans affairs later in our newscasts. and there is a cause of reshuffling the cabinet. mayor julian castro up for the housing secretary. the white house still refusing to comment. castro has been mentioned as a

and there has been at least one arrest in potential arson. dominique live in san diego with the latest. man, with the drought in california, how are the firefighters getting their water. >> reporter: it is hard here in southern california and we have the diminishing resources going down. 25 miles to the south we have lake pojen and then the reservoir that have been two key level resources that are low. and they will dip into people's swimming pools that they are so desperate for sources of water. despite being so close to the pacific, one of the challenge is sea water corrodes the equipment cal fire has got and it has proven to be tough. and as the summer goes on as hot

as it's been so far, the water levels will go low and that means with the fire season ahead of us, it will be tough getting more resources. >> and just beginning too. and dominique there was that evacuation order at camp pendleton. >> a housing community was ev evacuated but now they can return to their homes. but there are three separate fires in camp pendleton and the marines are committed to putting that out. >> the conditions are are how merion corp answers the call and runs to the sounds of guns, whether it be combat or natural disasters at home. >> reporter: so the marines are taking care of that themselves.

we have one other fire in escondido that are moving east. and slow winds are coming down and the humidity in the air, if it can get up to 20%, that alone could help put the fires out and they are praying for that, even as they are containing a lot of fires. 60% of the main big six fires are under control. >> that is good news. dominique. thanks very much as always. arth arthel? mother nighture is beginning to -- nature is beginning to cooperate to give firefighters a hand there. and janice is live in the weather center. and dominique said if the humidity increases that could help the firefighters. is that a likely chance? >> absolutely. i think we could get 20% humidity over the next few days. a system from the west is

breaking down the high pressure across the great basin with the clockwise winds funneling through the passes bringing us the santa ana winds. we won't see it stretch as far as los angeles, but relative humidity goes up and temperatures go down and the winds will subside as well. the fire danger is going to move eastward. we could see the potential for fires breaking out over the four corners area but for l.a., san diego, that area we are seeing several wildfires burning, the conditions are better. so the temperatures today, high of 82 in los angeles. but better conditions into sunday, monday and tuesday. temperatures in the high 60s with the relative humidity 20% or even 30% and the winds will diminish significantly which is great news. the bad side of this, unfortunately, is california, you are into severe exceptional drought for 1 # 00% of the -- 100% of the state and that extends into the four corners

and it will not get better. and the summer drought look is dire stretching into the southern plains. so for the next couple of days we have mother nature helping out. the foreseeable future is going to be drought conditions for the next several months. back to you. >> that is not so good. >> we'll take the good news. >> okay, janice dean, thank you. in the wake of the botched lethal injection last month, one lawmaker is asking for a more humane execution, bring back the firing squads. that is what paul ray said we should re-enact. he is planning to propose that as an option for criminals on death row. more with this is brian. what does he want. >> since 1976, three people have been put to death by firing squad in the u.s. during that time, more than 1150

have died from lethal injection. it has been the preferred method of execution in the u.s. but last month's botched set failed due to a blown the man died 40 minutes later due to an apparent heart attack. they believe death by hiring squad is more humane and prevent botched executions. ray saying the prison dies instantly. it draconian and bad, but

ranked fire squad against lethal injection considering them to be the least painful. entirely possible a person could move or shooters missing the target causing a slow death. >> for all of the technology in the country, lethal injection has been the most unreliable. 7% of all lethalib jekss -- lethal injections in the united states have been botched and that is higher for any rate of execution. >> they don't see firing squads making a comeback across the country and saying that citizens by enlarge would seen it as inhumane. >> [ inaudible ] faced a fire

. critics question the resignation of the top health care official of the department of veteran affairs. robert petzel stepping down one day after he testified before the senate veterans affairs committee. petzel was slatded to retire -- slated to retire at the end of the year any way. so is this first step enough? with problems spreading across the country. how bad is the v.a. health scandal. john collins joins us. and it happens to be today,

armed forces day, which we honor those who served and we have horrific allegations that our vets, the brave men and women who served this country were kept waiting and they say led to 40 deaths but the officials deny that. how bad is it? >> it is horrible because it is a cover-up. they knew what they were doing, falsifying records and putting people on a false waiting list and they would languish. we had a warning sign on this at walter reed and we had veterans from the iraq war come in and they were terribly treated. and it is time for a shake-up because we have a cover up and it means we need to dig into it. >> and there is allegations in colorado, and the nurse telling people to wait. >> seven cities. >> seven so far. and now texas, georgia,

peninsula -- pennsylvania and other states. do you think this is systemwide or intensionally or just it happens to be individual cases? >> no, i don't think it was intentional or directed from washington. but clearly their messages and signals and budget constraints and demands from washington to compel people to take sloppy and incorrect shortcuts. this actually is a warning sign for the rest of us, not just those of us that are veterans. these kind of waiting list scandals are common in canada and britain and other places where they have national health care where they have pressure to cut budgets and expand care to more and more people. so this is a warning sign for obama care, because i will tell you all of the things with obama care in it will lead to waiting lists and doctors dropping out of lists. >> and so you see this potentially spreading to theót8 national health care system

because of the affordable care act. >> eventually. eventually all of the pressures -- because remember, the pressure that obama care has is we have to save costs, save money and help new people. and that is what happened. and you ration care by adding people to a waiting list. in this case the waiting list could have been deadly. >> but the president has alzheimer's said we could keep our health care plan if we want it, we could keep our doctor if we want it and it will increase the coverage in america. >> coverage is not treatment. can you say i have health care coverage. i have the right to go ask for health care, doesn't mean you will get it on time or the right specialist. those are two different things. the president was telling the truth. but coverage is not the same thing as treatment. and these veterans who may have paid the ultimate price for being on that waiting list, they

discovered the reality of that. >> these stories -- when you hear the families and it is just heartbreaking and just so astounding, but officials say they don't have any evidence of this. this is what petzel testified about, there was no secret waiting list and the department's inspector general is going further. and eric holder said they are not investigating this, they are waiting for the v.a. inspector general to investigate. they are also calling for an independent counsel. what should happen. >> dumping it into the inspector general isn't an answer. and i think we have to have a congressional look at this because the inspector general does good work, but two or three years, we can't wait for that. there may be veterans on other waiting lists right now. >> so that is a good point.

if you are a veteran and people who are watching and have loved ones that have served such as my family, what should you tell them when you go to the v.a. hospital? >> trust but first verify. ask a lot of questions. maybe you want to see the waiting list. maybe you want to ask how the waiting list was constructed. you have to be your own patient advocate. and if you don't ask those questions, don't be surprised if fragment airy for a person of our armed services. >> if they tell you at the desk they can't see you for your kidney until three weeks. >> you can complain to the ombudsman and you can ask questions. and if you get the sense that you are not getting straight answers or they don't want to answer your questions, i think you have to go higher up at

chain of command and say i have a right as a veteran, someone who served my country, have a right to answers of what kind of care i am and whether it is the best care and being delivered in time. >> and in terms of the whole issue, where do you think it will go and in the end what do you think will happen? >> a lot of this depends on what the obama administration delivered to investigators. we've seen in benghazi where documents were held. the administration plays hide the ball or hide the paper and refuses to deliver. it two years to get documents that congress had asked for in benghazi and were never delivered. so i think we have to deal with the presumption they are going to hide information unless they prove otherwise because they have shown consistently their pattern in the past. >> and the investigation by the inspector general is ting and i know, join, you join us in thanking all of our veterans on this arm forces day.

and as we look at the

headlines we're following for you right now. at least 20 people have died following record flooding in the balkans. bosnia and serbia are seeing some of the worst devastation. and there could be more casualties once the waters recede in the next few days. a mississippi blogger is under arrest after going to a nursing home and photo graphing a senator. he said he meant to use it as part of an anti-cochran video and has been charged with exploiting an adult. and preparations under way for the preakness in baltimore. that is the second leg of the u.s. triple crown taking place right after the kentucky derby and just before the belmont stakes. there are new charges against former new england

patriot aaron hernandez who was just indicted for a double murder? boston and this comes as he is being charged with murder of his friend oden lloyd. and mercedesco ep is a fox news legal analyst, and [ inaudible ] joins us. and kristin i'll start with you. this story getting more bizarre. can the new allegations, can this be used in hernandez's upcoming trial or would it be considered a double jeopardy. >> it is highly unlikely. the courts try to preclude7d juries from tainting the evidence and to make sure the media doesn't give the jury preconceived notions.

>> and if there are other allegations that aaron hernandez that he killed another shooting and a drive-by shooting, they will focus and say what are the similarities. >> they are claiming -- claiming that aaron hearne was part of that drive by who did the shooting. >> but who were the two other people before they were shot, weren't they at the club and oden was at the club? if there are enough tentacles relating them, of course it will be related. and look at the fact there was motive and opportunity and similarity between the two sets of crimes, that is why they should all come in together. >> and there are civil charges about allegations of a strip club and shooting that occurred down in florida and shooting someone. and that is a civil case on

that. but that is the modus operandi that people are seeing. the think the prosecution has to be aware of is appellate issues and giving the jury the idea that this is someone that is preconceived to do these type of things and that is an enormous grounds for appeal. >> and mercedes, aren't people coming out of the wood work withalle gagss that might not be true. >> it is true. especially with the high target defendants. they tremendous publicity, big figures in the media. he's guilty of this. and he's considered innocent until proven guilty and there are more allegations out there and i think that is a great a l case pending. so if there are criminal charges that are bubbling up, it will affect the civil case as well. >> why are these charges now just coming up. 2012 is when this happened?

why now? >> it is not uncommon for cold cases to be looked at. they certainly tend to cool down once the leads wear off. it seems as if, because once the charges came forward on the oden lloyd case, it seemed like the media reported but they are also staying he's been investigated for 2012. and there are leads about a subsequent crime and there were firearms used in both instances or people coming forward with information that may lead to new links for cars, that sort of thing or tracking down guns. the gun of course hasn't been found. >> hasn't been found yet. let med wrap with you. if the allegations are true, there was more than one murder on the part of hernandez, and again as you swysaid, innocent until proven guilty, if the

hypothetical. how does that change his profile? >> it is devastating. >> and first of all, he's been released by the patriots. the $40 million is out done. if he is convicted, he will not see the light of day. >> mercedes cohen, and kristin wilson good to see you as well. thanks so much guys. eric. the centers for disease control reported on the first american who they say has now tested positive for the mrsa virus by contagion. an indiana man contacted middle easte brought it back to the u.s. and a guy in illinois who had contact with the indiana man has

also tested positive. symptoms are fever, ammonia or acute res -- respiratory arrest. at this time he is reported to be feeling well and the original indiana patient is fine and now released from the hospital. and tonight marks the 60th anniversary of the historic brown versus the board of education supreme court decision that outlawed segregation in our country. the supreme court ruled segregation was unconstitutional and celebrations took place to honor the decision. elizabeth prann is in washington with those details. >> reporter: 60 years ago a court declared separate was not

equal. affecting schools across america. brown versus board of education was a major victory for equality but some say problems still exist. the department of justice monitors 200 school districts where they say there is evidence of segregation. >> over the last few weeks and few months we have seen occasional jarring reminders of the discrimination and the isolated, repugnant and racist views that in some places have yet to be overcome. >> and while sticking to a group of students in topeka, kansas, michelle obama told the school they are the living, breathing legacy of this case but she warns of the possibility of segregation in schools today. going to schools that just look just like them and too often those schools aren't equal.

>> the republican national committee saying the decision affirmed the principal that in america all children deserve a great education and a chance to create their american dream. eric, back to you. >> stark decision. thanks, elizabeth. arthel? and coming up, ukrainian officials fighting to save the country from all-out civil war as part of eastern ukraine is seeing more violence between the ukrainians and the pro-russian separatists. next we'll talk about what steps the u.s. can take now.

time for a quick check of the headlines. a deadly plane crash killing how government officials in laos today. five people were killed including the country's defense minister. in nigeria, the country's president is in paris. the french president warning him that the islamic militant group boko haram has funding and highly advanced terrorist training. and in argentina, a team of scientists breaking records after digging up the large

dinosaur ever. it is said it was about the size of two semi-trucks and weighedj more than 14 elephants. >> how about that. well gunfire has been ringing out in the eastern ukraine again today as a second round of the talks begin in kiev. the talks to try to solve the country's worse crisis since the fall of the soviet union. but most pro-russian separatists to end what they call the anti-terrorist operation, all of this will back here at home senators on both sides of the banishing america to ban arms deals. what will happen? retired navy captain to dick cheney is joining us. do you think anything will come of these talks? >> i'm sorry? >> do you think anything will

come of these talks amid the unrest and violence. >> i do. but the core point is that vladimir putin wants to use his power, political, economic and military power and he has a particular objective in mind. and we are looking forward to the may 25th referendum to elect a new partisan and he is pulling every tool out of his tool box to effect events inside of ukraine. >> he is like dr. know. he comes up with schemes and now he said they are going to cut off gas on june 1st unless they pay up front. pressure after pressure after pressure, while 40,000 troops are still on the border.

>> that is right. and that particular matter with regard to the gas -- or using gas prom to ask the cranans to -- the ukrainians to pay up fro front, is a political influence with europe. and if ukraine can't pay, then the europeans will have to pay cash as well. so he is using that economic lever carefully and politically as well. >> and look, germany and all of the contracts with russia dealing with the ukraine. what will that achieve? >> that is a great question with regard to germany. two weeks ago chancellor merkel met with the president and germany has a lead role with regard to the engagement with the russian diplomacy. the united states is hopeful that the germans will at least try to mitigate some of the intent inside of the european union with regard to putin

making sure europe has a stronger front. but the game is still influencing kiev. we also saw thee]7@ demonstrat this week of the russian federation navy review where mr. putin stood tall looking at the return of russian nationalism in crimea. but europe and germany is still a play but it is still mr. putin's call. >> and he calls it new russia and he wants to spread it farther than what he has. and they have economic ties in france. they are selling two war ships to moscow in the middle of all of this. >> that is a very troubling development. i don't they think the european union isçqxu)ong enough. i think they'll try to find a way around it. that is the traditional way they've done things. i think it is imperative for the united states to demonstrate strong leadership using our leverage for national security

policy, working with our allies and working with nato and our economic leverage continuing on sanctions that may do more to get many putin's attention. so far they have been targeted sanctions for the close inner sank um of putin but there are other measures that can be taken. >> and do you think the white house isa)hjq demonstrating tha strong opposition. and yesterday in the op ed page, the security administrator is pleading for night goggles and for vests. ukraine or have we done enough? >> i don't think we've done enough. i think we should sustain our relationship with the ukraine and we are supporting the international monetary fund loans to keep ukraine finally at par with what the russia

intentions are trying to achieve. and it also gives time for the osce, the organization of security cooperation in europe get the elections through and get a new parliament in ukraine and buy them some time. but i think the defense cooperate is a part of that. >> that is a very good point. we'll see as these elections are looming. thank you very much. >> and tomorrow morning, a very exciting guest on sunday morning futures at 10:00 a.m. maria will have russian chess champ speaking with garrn kasparov. you won't want to miss that tomorrow. >> and it is called a hair-raising event, a bunny competition that is taking europe by storm. cars are driven by people. they're why we innovate. they're who we protect.

now for a look at news beyond the headlines, here's liz trotta's saturday commentary. >> there is something inherently wrong with washington's view of the armed services that defend us. we now know the veterans administration ignored hundreds

of sick veterans begging for medical care. to the point where some, perhaps many, lingered and died while waiting for treatment in a rigged system. at the same time, we know the pentagon is knocking itself out to render special treatment for a homosexual/transsexual private convicted under the espionage act, a traitor, not a whistle-blower. let's review. private bradley manning, now known as chelsea elizabeth manning, is serving a 30-year sentence at ft. leavenworth for making public more than 700,000 classified documents. he did this while serving as a low-level intelligence officer in iraq. he also latched onto video of an apache helicopter mission that resulted in civilian casualties. manning passed on this mountain of explosive secrets to

wikileaks traitor julian assange and another fellow computer hacker who ultimately turn them into the feds. considering time already spent in the brig, private manning whose diagnosis, suffering from gender dysphoria, will be eligible for parole in seven years. in the meantime, he's demanding transfer to a civilian prison so he can avail himself of hormone therapy, something the army does not do. in fact, army policy prohibits transgenders from serving. figure that one out. the secretary of defense, chuck hagel, is bent on banishing this restriction and allowing transgenders in the army. so the public would be forced to pay for expensive transgender medical treatment, including sex change operations. you might call this idea just

one more iteration of obamacare. private manning says he wants to live life as a woman from now on and the ever-willing left, along with their cohorts in the media, now refer to private manning as her and she. his legal name change is seen as enough reason to change his gender. he even posed for a picture wearing a blonde wig and lipstick. policymakers for our military forces, especially in the army, have created a public square to experiment with social change. inevitably, they have had to face the consequences of caving in to the latest fashion forced on them by liberal agendas. private manning's story is one of a mentally disturbed young man with a history of trouble in and out of the army whose ego led him to betray his country. why must taxpayers indulge him?

sad news for dog lovers. former president george w. bush announced the family has lost their beloved scotty, ms. beasley. the former president releasing a statement that said in part, quote, she was a source of joy during our time in washington and in dallas. she was a close companion to her blood relative barney and even though he received all the attention, beasley never held a grudge against him. laura and i will miss her. ms. beasley was 9 years old. >> rest in peace. we have another story now, another animal story. they're hopping into action, a team of bunnies competing in a show-jumping contest this weekend. it's known as the bouncing bunnies of sweden and they're part of a sport taking europe by storm. organizers say the appeal is simple. the bunnies are cute and they like to jump over stuff.

the record, by the way, over three feet. there you have it. >> how about that for a sport? >> that's going to do it for us. stick around.
