>> fantastic. >> bush also tagging it, brother from another mother. >> by the way, hannity has a great interview with 41 and 43 tonight. >> we'll be watching. >> 10:00 o'clock. martha: brand-new information on president obama's immigration plan that could be coming as soon as next week. eric: i'm eric shawn in for bill hemmer who is on ashinement. republican leaders are not happy about their president going it alone again. >> working together requires trust. i think president obama has a duty to help build a trust we all need to move forward

together, not to double down on old ways of doing business. that's why i think moving forward with unilateral immigration he planned would be a big mistake. martha: mike emanuel is live on capitol hill. what is in this draft? >> reporter: it's a 10-point plan with border security and a pay raise for immigration officers. up to 4.5 million illegal immigrants living with their children born in this country would be allowed to stay. a pay raise for i.c.e. officers to increase morale. promote the naturalization process by giving a 50%he firsts who step forward. and visa program for tech jobs

would allow after half million -- offer a path to citizenship. some are saying the republicans should remain calm and go forward with the lame duck congress and then move forward with a guest worker program and a top house democrat says the president should go for it. >> i'm proud to join my colleagues in the that request and proud to support the president of the united states in acting in a big, bold manner. >> reporter: democrats are encouraging the president to go big and bold. >> reporter: we expect plenty more reaction today, martha. martha: thank you very much.

eric: the white house insisting the president has not made a final decision on his executive order. saying not to expect an announcement on this until sunday when he returns from his trip from asia and australia. >> if the house does pass the bipartisan senate bill that's been passed the president would sign that into law. if he made the decision to-move forward on his own executive actions he would have to retract those executive actions so we could november forward with the senate bill. eric: is this a move to push congress to move during this lame duck session? >> reporter: i think what josh earnest is trying to say if congress passes immigration reform of their own it could take on any form they like.

the white house is trying to say the president can do his executive stuff and you guys can override that because the executive power only goes so far so pass a bill. i think the white house is trying to product congress to act. that's why we'll see the president move forward and dare the republicans to override him. in the end what the white house is trying do is get some action here. eric: what do we make of the administration's timing on all this? >> reporter: you heard mike emanuel say it could come as early as next week. i talked with seen or officials say it's possible it will happen before thanksgiving. but they are pointing to another date, december 12 which is when the continuing resolution to keep the government open runs out.

others are saying they should make sure the government doesn't shut down. if you do them next week you are going anger republicans so much it may blow up these budget talks and you have got a bigger problem on your hand. eric: in burma it's still the nighttime. martha: the keystone pipeline is become a football in the senate. her party is helping out, scheduling that vote for next tuesday. republicans call the timing suspicious and they will hold an identical vote today. >> we can pass the keystone pipeline and answer the frustrations of the american people so they can rest next week and say, oh, my gosh, the senators of the united states of america have ears.

and they have brains, and they have hearts, and they heard what we said. martha: mike warren is staff writer for "the weekly standard." we have been talking about the keystone pipe mine for years. i think it's shocking suddenly something they have been waiting for a vote on for a long, long time is suddenly on the floor. >> it's almost like to is an election' coming. it feels like that last minute cramming you do to study for an exam when you haven't been to lectures. mary landrieu is saying i'm influential. she has a runoff against bill cassidy in a couple weeks. but it doesn't explain why she thinks something so obviously

political is going to work for her. martha: she tried to say this is not political. this is what the american people want. there have been 8 bills passed in the house. it's a crafty response on the republican side to say we are going to put the exact same bill so it won't require any:negotiation or conferencing through the house and we'll put it back on the president's desk. >> it undercuts mary landrieu's argument that she can get things done. we have been talking about the keystone xl pipeline for months. why hasn't it gotten done? mitch mccouldn't incoming senate majority leader, bill cassidy will get a seat on the energy committee.

louisiana will have somebody with a seat on the energy committee and will have a vote on the keystone pipeline. it makes the voters going, why am i voting for mary landrieu again? martha: if they get it through and it gets on his desk what will he do? >> the white house said he's going veto it. if this is the one issue that will get louisiana voters on the fence, should i vote for mary landrieu or not, that's not what's holding people back. mary landrieu is a democrat supporting democratic policies in the senate. obamacare is a big issue in louisiana. i don't think the keystone pipeline is a good issue to turn the tide for her. i think she is going down in a couple weeks. martha: we'll see. she has been in tight races before and she pulled it out in

the last part of the process. michael warren, thank you very much. eric: isn't it amazing what one election can do. martha: now there is a big rush to get this through the senate after 8 bills on this have been sitting on harry reid's decks for a couple of years. -- desk for a couple of years. eric: there are new reports the president wants a new plan to deal with syria and that terrorist group isis. we'll show you top brass in the pentagon, they will be sitting down appearing before congress. we'll have their testimony and what they will say about isis for you live. martha: that's coming up in the next hour. you have think you had a tough day at the office? two window wash washers dangling

on the side of the freedom tower for hours. what rescuers had to resort to to get them to safety. eric: three strikes and you are out. the third video from a consultant, the architect of obamacare. he seems to say americans can't do math either. the new controversial comments giving americans new fire in the fight against obamacare. we'll ask karl rove about those comments and whether american voters really are stupid. >> it' > >> it's it's that you are too stupid to educate your own children and too stupid to figure out what to nut your mouth. helps reduce the risk of heart disse. keep hrt-healthy. live long.

eat the 100% goodness of post shreddedheat. doctorrecommend it. so ally bank really has no hidden fethat's right. accounts? it's just that i'm worried about you know "hidden things..." ok, why's that? no hidden fees, from the bank where no branches equals great rates.

eric: did you see this yesterday? it happened 69 stor stories aboe ground in new york city. the window washers were trapped until the firefighters cut through the thick glass windows. the workers only suffered minor injuries. an investigation is underway to figure out why that cable

snapped. martha: the controversy surrounding jonathon gruber, considered to be one the architects of the obamacare plan. now another video has emerged explaining our ignorance was instrumental in helping democrats to pass the affordable care act. >> we just tax the understand companies and they pass on the higher prices. it ends up being the the same thing. it's a clever exploitation of the lack of economic standing of the american voter. martha: the republicans have pounced on this calling this typical of the democrats. the white house responded pointing the finger back at the gop. >> i think it's republicans who haven't been honest about the true impact of this.

it's republicans who have been less than transparent to what their proposed changes to the affordable care act would do. martha: is that true? former senior adviser and chief of staff to george w. bush. so you have smarty pants mr. gruber who said everybody was hoodwinked because they don't know what's best for them. when wait forward a white house response and now we got it. >> i have to tip my hat to josh earnest. only the president's spokesman would have the nerve to come out and say it's the republicans. i loved gruber's comment. a basic exploitation of the lack

of economic understanding on the part of the american voter. they knew ultimately the people who had the cadillac policies would pay the costs. it has taxes on drug companies, taxes on insurance companies on each insurance policy they have, it has tax on medical device. it has taxes on health providers. in an interesting testimony before congress senator john cornyn asked who is going pay those tax, the drug companies, the doctors, the medical device manufacturers, will they be passed on to the consumers? the cbo said of course they will be paid for by the consumers. so we have sick people going to the hospital to will pay higher prices because of the $6 billion in new taxes through the obamacare act. they exploited the what they

call the basic lack of understanding by the consumer time and time again. martha: they said they are too dumb to realize it will be passed on to them. the administration argued it's not a tax, it's a fine. they said it is a tax, that's how we'll uphold the entire health plan. we revisited a while back, in light of what we now know, this is a fox news poll that says did the obama administration misrepresent the obamacare act to get it passed? 55% of americans said yes. >> the american people understand it was sold to them, told to the country with a series of statement which many of us knew at the time to not be

true. like your doctor will be keep your doctor, won't add a dime to the deficit. won't raise taxes on anybody who makes less than $50,000 a year. people are feeling it in their own personal circumstances in a powerful way that in earnest and mr. obama his boss has to say about this law. martha: politically in terms of this new congress and the republican leadership in the congress, what happens now in terms of reform or appeal? >> this adds gasoline to a smoldering fire. we are going to see this early next year we'll see specific measures to undo parts of the affordable care act starting with redefining a full-time worker as somebody who works 40 hours. once the congress receives the president's budget and the house and senate budget committees

pass their budget resolutions and establish the process called reconciliation are likely to see a repeal measure come through the house and senate pretty quickly and go to the president. i'm sure he will veto it, but it will be a sign to him this battle is far from over and the house and senate will be chipping away at this over the next two years. eric: a dad, a son and they both happen to be president. sean hannity with his exclusive interview with president george w. bush. he reflected on the past and the future and what he's saying about what could be another clinton-bush matchup. martha: we have more on the exclusive interview with ""the man who killed usama bin laden"." what a stormy robert o'neill has to tell.

>> i'm stand and two feet in front of me with his hands on his wife's shoulders behind her was a face i had seen thousands of times, ubl. very quickly i recognized him, and pop, pop, pop.

finally get bin laden for all of us. >> he went through the curtain. most of the women were there, the daughters and wives. he grabbed them walking them assuming they were going to blow up. he gave his life so the guy behind him could get a shot. i kind of pushed him down the hallway and turned to the right. and standing two feet in front of me with his hands on his wife shoulders behind her was the face that i had seen thousands of times, ubl. very quickly i recognized him and just pop, pop, pop. eric: o'neal went on to reveal what went through this head. >> they could justifiably shoot us down and we couldn't be mad

because they would be defending their nation. we are starting to realize i could take a missile and blow up at any time. you are wondering what does it feel like when you get shot out of the sky. do you die right away or do you die when you fall. i was going to count to keep my mind occupied. zero to a thousand and a thousand to zero. i'm speeding it up and slowing down to keep my mind working. but as i'm counting for some reason i remember a quote from george bush on 9/11. "freedom itself was attacked by a faceless coward and freedom will be defended." i got goosebumps and thought how did i remember that. then i started thinking to myself, freedom itself was

attacked by a faceless coward. martha: the historic significance of the details o'neal * revealed. >> reporter: he wanted to go into this story and give a first-person account for the first time. that's why these clips are so amazing because nobody has done this before. nobody has said i met usama bin laden in his bedroom. then i killed him. martha: so bill and i will get the chance to talk to rob o'neal. we'll have that interview for you. every time he talks about this, more things come out. one of the things we learned this morning was that quote from george w. bush that freedom will be testified. he has tattoos on his arm as a permanent part of his body and no doubt his conscience.

eric: i can't wait. brave americans. martha: the white house apparently ready to got it alone on the issue of immigration. a lot of people aren't happy with what they are learning about the details. eric: the grand jury said to be nearing a decision on whether to indict the officer in the killing of michael brown. they are bracing for the possibility of more riots when that decision comes down as jurors hear key testimony from an expert witness. we'll have those new details coming up.

martha: brand-new jobs numbers have just come out. more people. filing for unemployment in the last week. it has climbed to 290,000. but it's the ninth straight week below 300,000. it suggests there are steady jobs gains. eric: president obama we are told is supposed to take immigration packs on his own without giving congress the chance to vote on it before the end of the year. with one sweep of his pen he will grant legal status to 4.5 million immigrants. >> this is an action unilaterally by one person, the president of the united states, to legalize millions that congress has explicitly refused

to do. under current law they are here illegally and unable to work. eric: good morning. let me start with you, monica. if the president does this what will it mean and what will be the impact? >> he said repeatedly over the years that he has to constitutional authority to do this. now it looks like he's ready, willing and able to go ahead. he's feigning urgency. clearly this is a highly cynical move on this president done for strictly political reasons. what he's trying to do is increase the democrat voting rolls. this is the final missing piece of his fundamental transformation of the nation.

that's why congress needs to stop it. eric: is this like fdr trying to pack the supreme court? >> i support comprehensive immigration reform. but i support doing it by congress. i do think this is extra legal and is not constitutional. i would like to see the congress take up incremental immigration reform including securing our borders first and a pathway to citizenship for those who are not here legally. that being said, with the elections having the most tentative results pushing the congress, kicking and screaming, towards bipartisanship with the president, i'm deeply troubled and worried and feel while monday may be overstating the case, it's not by much. they are saying basically congress has to do it by

december 1 and i think most people can understand that's not going to happen. we can't even take up the attorney general's nomination until the new congress. so that to me is a straw man that is just to give political cover to the president to do something argue believe he should not do by executive order. eric: you have 11 million illegal immigrants. what do we do? >> this is a very complex issue and that's why it's gone back and forth across the aisle because it's such a tough thing. but i think most of the american people oppose this. the american people do not want the president to do this unilaterally through executive action. they want this to go through the proper channels. they want the border secured first. that's 89% of the american people agree with what doug said

that that should be the first thing done. then you can talk about ways to deal with the 11 or god knows how many people are here illegally. then you proceed from there. but to have the president iewn laterally do this extra constitutionally it calls to mind what he did with obamacare. what both parties should do about this. there are a number of democrats up in 2016 who just saw what happened to their colleagues last week. they don't want the same thing to happen to them in 201. 201 -- to them in 2016. they are fearful of what the president is going to do and they will have to defend this. eric: what is the potential for agreement that this will blow this up before the new congress. >> i think it will destroy any

co hurricanes tycd destroy any l become a comedy. immigration reform will allow harmony to fix things like the affordable care act. given the election results which were a clear mandate for a change in policy. i would hope we would move with alacrity and comity. martha: this is our own sean hannity sitting down in an exclusive interview with president george w. bush tonight. and we'll get a look at the george w. bush library.

he will talk about a possible run of jeb bush against hillary clinton in a rematch that some will not forget. >> reporter: you describe how you appointed formerinton and yy became the best of friends. >> they became good friends which speaks volumes about both. >> reporter: what does fit mean about a possible bush-hillary clinton showdown. >> i'll still like him when jeb beats hillary. if jeb runs, i don't know if he's going to run. i hope he does because he would be a great president. martha: it's interesting. sean hannity's exclusive interview tonight on the fox news channel. eric: at the top of the hour the

top military comafnld our country will sit down, raise their right hand and testify on the u.s. campaign against isis. the white house could be second guessing and changing a strategy to try to defeat the radical islamic terrorists. >> major fog rolling in and it has one u.s. city feeling a little bit misty. that's incredible.

eric: the fog is not just rolling into north carolina. it swallowed raleigh. the rolling white mass covered everything except as you can see the top of the tall buildings before burning off in the afternoon. temperatures are expected to dip into the 20s as that arctic

air pushes down from canada. some areas in the northeast could see frost warnings. martha: incredible picture. and weird weather this week. let many get a live look at capitol hill. we are minutes away from a very important hearing by the armed forces committee on isis. we'll hear testimony from the joint chiefs of staff, general martin dempsey and chuck hagel. this amid reports that the white house is looking for a new strategy on this. general were it's good to see you this morning as always. there is a report that came out that said the white house is looking for a new strategy on this whole thing. they feel they can't do the

serious part of the strategy without eliminating assad. do you believe that's the case? >> i think it's true. it's been an open secret the coalition partners led by saudi arabia and the turks have been seeking the same thing. we know the secretary of state, secretary of defense, it will be interesting to see how they respond to it this morning. also retired general allen assisting the department of state have expressed concerns about this. what the issue is we had an iraq first strategy use airstrikes in syria only while we begin to arm equipment, train the free syrian army. the problem is the free syrian army is being pounded by assad's air power and it makes no sense to continue that strategy as the free syrian army is being depleted at the time they are trying to find new recruits and

train and equip them. i think they will relook at this thing and say we can no longer delink assad's removal from is very. we have to bring those two things together. martha: what do you think assad's reaction will be if we decide to go after him. it sounds like that will engender more support from saudi arabia and turkey. >> i think the prudent first steps is to establish no-fly zones to protect us up by the bearder, the turkish border for refugees and opposition forces. step two is begin with a sense of urgency arm, equip and train the free syrian army. there are also diplomatic efforts that can be made. we can finally bring it russians into this thing to help change assad out. but i think the reality is that won't work. i think what will work is what you suggested.

and that is we'll probably have to take his air power down and weaken assad and that will begin to create and exit strategy for assad and his cronies. martha: this has been such a complicated issue from the beginning. you think back to the day the president said if assad crossed the red line and used chemical weapons against his people we would have to remove him. back then the administration said quite often they believe after he saad was on the verge of toppling. it was a matter of time before he would be gone. all that turned out differently. how much does not move put us where we are today? >> it absolutely does. you have reported here many times that the president's entire national security team in 2012 recommended that we arm and equip and train the free syrian army in a robust manner and that was not done. even then that was a little late in my judgment.

but if we had done that we wouldn't in the situation we are in in syria. this as complicate sad situation as there is. we hava -- we haveal nusra fighe he jeep. martha: the terrorists in egypt are signing up with isis as well. dem city and hail at times suggested they might go to the president and ask for ground troops. is that something we are going to hear from them today? >> i don't think that would be a revelation to congress before the president would announce something like that. we have been saying here for months that it's inevitable that we have to put troops on the ground with the indij news fighting forces. we need people on the ground to

assist them. if that doesn't work then we would need direct combat forces from the u.s. and the coalition. but at least strengthen that weak hand with forces on the ground that can assist them as advisers and air-ground controllers, not just trainers. martha: there is no doubt they will be asked the ground troop question and how they choose to answer that question will be watched extremely closely by all of us. thank you very much. good to have you here today. that's the big question here. you know that these congressmen are going to question about ground troops and whether hail and dempsey who both indicated in the past they would be open to potentially asking the fot go down that road. the white house said absolutely not. so this is the big question of the morning. eric: an astounding accomplishment in space.

the european space agency landed a probe the side of a washing machine right on top of a speeding comet. we'll show you have the breathtaking images they are sending back home. martha: stopping iran from building a possible nuclear bomb. the clock is ticking as the white house is trying to strike a deal. are we giving up too much to get this deal? >> i believe the biggest national security threat to us, israel and the world at large would be a nuclear farmed iran. under no circumstances should the iranians be allowed to have a nuclear weapon, period. al exp, i got a medicare supplement insurance plan.

eric: european scientists landed a spacecraft on the surface of a speeding comet. the lander sending photos back. scientists are hoping to learn more about the building block of our solar system. necessity got lander on the coat but now it turns out there is a problem? >> reporter: with one of the landing pods. it's not sitting on the surface. it's floating in space. the lander is said to be stable so it is delivering some data. but it's resting on two of those three landing pods and it's sitting on the edge of a cliff. there are numerous issues the european space agency is dealing with. but the philae craft is

delivering pictures. that's one of the even 10as on the philae -- that's one of the antennas on the philae. it's not icy as we might have thought. but it's full of contractings and very, very rocky. because it thruster and harpoons failed on landing it bounced two times so it land on the comet three times. >> this is the big crater on the head of the comet. this is the landing site. we hit this quite accurately less triana 100 meters from the predicted point. then we did a huge jump, something like this. >> reporter: in the blue diamond area you see the cliff wall. the big problem is the solar

panels on the philae are not really functioning as intended and that's burning up the juice because it's in shadow. eric: just amazing, thank you. martha: we have new details on the sailor who was attacked overseas. why the pentagon says u.s. service members need to be on alert.

administration. this comes amid reports that the pentagon is considering a big damage in the strategy. glad you are with us today. i'm martha maccallum. eric: i'm eric shawn. bill hemmer is on assignment today. the testimony you are about to hear follows a wave of airstrikes in iraq and syria. media reports that the president ordered a complete top to bottom review of the current strategy. martha: jennifer griffin joins us live from the pentagon. do we know if the president has ordered a review and new strategy for the battle against isis? >> reporter: we are told that's not true, not according to pentago officials. the secretary hail and the chairman of the joint chiefs, martin dempsey, as you mentioned are about to begin a hearing to explain the strategy. and they will be asking for

money very shortly. $1.6 billion they need to get started. the white house rebutted any notion that the president ordered such a review and there is no indication that the president is about to shift gears and remove bashar al-assad from power which is what key allies have been demanding. >> there is no formal strategy or review of our syrian policy. there is a strategy for degrading and destroying isil. that requires us to take a hard look at what we are doing on a regular basis. >> reporter: secretary hagel did send a memo to national security adviser, susan rice, suggesting the syrian strategy needs to be reviewed. martha: we heard from dempsey and haig until the past that they might see themselves asking the president to put boots on the ground at some point.

what are the obstacles? how is this going? >> there are so many obstacles right now. mainly the lack of a cohesive ground force for the u.s. to partner with. in syria the free syrian army has nearly been route and in iraq half of the iraqi army is not fit for battle. reports from baghdad suggest that the new iraqi prime minister has fired 36 top commanders in the iraqi military. many of those generals were appointed by his predecessor. among those removed report'sly is the head of the iraqi army. it's not clear whether some of the new commanders are from sunni and kurdish factions reversing some of the sectarian decisions made by maliki or whether they are simply loyal to the new prime minister. >> here is a look at the hearing

room as we wait and everybody gathers. there will be a lot of tough questions about how all this is going. as jennifer pointed out. they want $1.6 billion from congress to continue this fight. some senators said he doesn't want to support that money unless he sees a concrete strategy to win. eric: the house will be debating a republican bill to approve the keystone pipeline with a possible vote on that happening this afternoon. the senate is voting on an identical bill this tuesday. the massive project is meant to bring oil from canada to american refineries held up for six years under the obama administration. now it's emerge as a political football because of mary landrieu's he election.

republican bill cassidy is behind today's house bill. stu varney is with us. you wer.>> the pipeline bill wil eventually go through congress and arrive on the president's desk. but the president is hinting at a veto. the presidential spokesman josh earnest said the president takes a dim view of these pipeline proposals. he does not want to build it. but he will be presented with a bill that finally emerges from congress. i think this is a negotiated position. he doesn't want to build a pipeline and he will try to add conditions to the bill as it arrives on his desk to make sure it many delayed or hemmed in with all kinds of restrictions so it doesn't work the way we want the pipeline to work. my guess is in the long run the pipeline will be built. but it's not over yet.

it will be a long time before it is built and the political theater meanwhile continues. eric: this has gone on for six years. there have been lawsuits. let, look at what investors business daily is saying about this. a stunning edtowardial to obama and secretary of state john kerry. fossil fuel and natural gas contributes to climate change and is a greater threat than russia, china or islamist terrorism. if he vetoes it, what then? >> if he vetoes it, he vetoes it and it will not be built. there are enough enough votes in -- there are not enough votes in congress to override a presidential veto.

it's interesting to see the forces lined up against the pipeline. the greens and environmentalists. russia, venezuela *. iran. they don't want cheap american oil. it's undermining their own economics. there is a strange alliance between the greens and russia, china and iran. the president doesn't want the pipeline. you are looking at a long, long drawn out political theater operation and it's nowhere over yet. eric: also the mullahs in iraq, as you point out. stuart varney is on the fox business network. log on to foxbusinessnetyork.com/channel fi foxbusinessnetyork.com/channelfi nder. martha: the keystone pipeline

would carry 830,000 barrels. it would equal half the daily amount of oil we import from the middle east. supporters of this expansion say building the pipeline co-would create 42,000 american jobs. eric: a disturbing video emerged of u.s. navy servicemen being attacked in turkey. turkish nationalists can be seen on this video sea saltin -- assg american sailors. they tried to put white bags over the sailors heads. >> it's hard to say whether other american tourists will face the same type of threats as this group of protesters issue offed to our sailors.

i don't think these attacks were aim at these particular sailors because of who they were individually but more aimed at america and america's presence. eric: the turkish authorities say they have detained 12 people in connection with this incident. martha: less than two weeks before the deal with iran is expected to expire. the president says sanctions against iran are working he believes. republican lawmakers suggest otherwise. >> our biggest concern is barack obama won't deal with iran and we are on the verge of making a terrible deal with the iranian nuclear program, another north korea in the making. martha: what's the white house saying about this today? >> the folks say they need to test iran's commitment to a nuclear deal and promising not

to significantly increase sanctions. in burma the president is mid-way through a three-day say peninsula trip. >> reporter: the purpose of the resolution is to arrive at a pointed where iran can state that is the case. that's been our message in negotiations with the iranians, that will continue to be our message going forward. report report sake kerry says the congress to block the administration's handling of foreign policy would send a message to germany who are negotiating with iran. some lawmakers want a vote that would block the administration from rolling back sanctions on iran even incrementally to test its commitment. it's not just republicans.

new jersey democrat robert menendez is releasing a statement that said quote gradual sanctions relaxation would only occur if iran strictly complied with all parts of the agreement. if a potential deal does not achieve these deals we'll work our colleagues in congress to act decisively as we have in the past. republicans don't trust obama to enforce taken tea agreement to guarantee iran never develops a nuclear weapon. senator lindsey graham says a bad deal with be worse than no deal at all. eric: some republicans are pushing the president not to act on immigration. do you think the gop is whimming to risk a possible government shutdown? martha: authorities in ferguson,

missouri are preparing for a possible bit of more scenes like this. the granted jury is about to reach a decision on whether to charge officer darren wilson in the shooting of michael brown. eric: a home is blown off its foundation by a massive explosion. neighbors say it sounds like a bomb. >> there was an explosion at the house next door. there was glass and debris.

eric: one woman was seriously injured and two homes destroyed in a massive explosion. the woman managed to walk out of the rubble but she suffered serious burns. five nearby homes were also damaged in that blast. >> i don't know what we are going to do. it's the holiday season. my family is okay. eric: the injured woman was lighting a cigarette when the house suddenly explode. it leads them to think it was possibly caused by a gas leak. martha: the president is expected to take action on immigration, throwing a proverbial grenade into the congress.

this is a look you are getting at the big spray of the new incoming senators. they don't want to risk a government shutdown. we'll bring in bret baier. he's the anchor of special report. so obviously, you know, the question is whether there will be a big fightback to this immigration bill. the white house is saying they are not releasing these specifics yet. >> reporter: they are not. we obtained documents from the government agency yesterday had we talked about. mike emanuel had the report on "special report." and they are pretty specific and they could come as soon as next week. you mentioned the republican pushback. there are 50 house leaders who said there needs to be an attachment to what's called the continuing resolution, the funding of the government that runs out september 12.

attachment that says the president cannot do this outside of congress. there are other lawmakers who say you should pull the strings of the budget process and take money away from the ability of the executive branch to be able to pull something like this off. this executive action. this sets up right away before we even get to the new congress this battle and it could mean government shutdown, the fiscal cliff once again. martha: that is what some people think the president's intention was with all of this, to divide the gop over this issue. >> reporter: that's clearly what many pundits are look at this. with all the talk about common ground, if this happens it is nuclear political bomb on capitol hill. long term, democrats see big positives for the hispanic vote and the percentage that continues to go up across the country and the demographics in that.

it was interesting -- last week pew published a poll asking hispanic registered voters. illegal immigration came in fourth behind education, jobs and the economy and healthcare. for all the talk about how much this will move that ball, it was interesting to see that poll as of last week. martha: that's one of the big unnoants as you look at 2016. what is most important to these voters. many people think they are one-issue voters and apparently they are not. >> expert economists have told us if we bring in more and more people lawfully into our country giving them the right to take jobs and every one of these individuals will be given a photo i.d., a social security number and the right to take a job in america, jobs that too few exist and too many americans

are looking for. it's just the wrong policy and it will incentivize more illegality in the future. martha: in terms of what republicans will do, whether they will go to the wall on this, what's your sense of it, bret? >> reporter: there is a sense the republican leadership does want this fight right now. that the preferred option would be to punt and do a short-term continuing resolution not dealing with this, then take it up with the new congress with new numbers as senator mcconnell becomes majority leader. that will take some convincing for conservatives who believe once this executive action is deployed, it will change the dynamics and it will be hard to put the genie back in the bottle. martha: it will be a test of how united the republicans are. who is the leader to pull them

together. >> reporter: we talked about that's times. mcconnell hearing the calves is something that's a challenge on specific issues. when it gets to something like this as emotional and significant and unconstitutional according to some on the hill, they feel like this is the place where they are going to battle up on that hill. martha: it looks like the president is about to launch the first salvo in this fight. thank you very much, bret, we'll see you tonight. eric: there is more fallout after jonathon gruber, the m.i.t. pro feelsor who says the healthcare law was. eric: there are reports that gruber may be called to testify on capitol hill to explain.

his comments provided ammunition to republicans in their fight against obamacare. martha: fun turns to fear as panicked visitors call 11. get us out of -- call 911. >> we can't find a way out. >> we have been here for four hours. woman: everyone in the nicu -- all the nurses wanted to watch him when he was there 118 days. everything that you thought was important to you changes in light of having a child that needs you every moment.

i wouldn't trade him for the world. who matters most to you says the most about you. at massmutual we're owned by our policyowners, and they matter most to us. if you're caring for a child with special needs, our innovative special care program offers strategies that can help.

martha: so attorneys for the family of michael brown set to hold a news conference shortly. dr. michael baden testified before the grand jury today. he was there to give his independent autopsy results, because obviously, the forensics are everything in this story in terms of whether or not officer darren wilson was shot in his own car, whether his gun was fired in his police vehicle and

the altercation moved out onto the grass. so, obviously, this entire region very much on edge because what the grand jury is deciding is whether or not they will press charges existence officer darren wilson -- against officer darren will soften in this case -- wigson in this case. there have been a lot of concerns from the police department that there could potentially be riots, we hope sincerely that the lessons were learned from the last time around in ferguson, missouri. you see benjamin crump to the left there behind the man who is speaking right now, he is the attorney for michael brown's parents, and he will be speaking momentarily as well. our own reporter is there on the scene covering this story, and he will give us more insight into what mr. crump has to say and the latest in what's going on in ferguson. it's a story we're going to be covering closely, obviously, as we wait for this grand jury decision. ♪ ♪ eric: meanwhile, martha, new details on a growing threat

against radical islamic terrorists of eye us. u.s. officials confirming to fox news that airstrikes have not reduced that flow of foreign fighters who continue to stream across the border into syria and iraq to help isis. they say as many as 1,000 insurgents a month continue to pour into the region. chief intelligence correspondent catherine herridge live in washington with the details. hi, catherine. >> reporter: thank you, eric. just two hours from now we're expecting to hear from the attorney general, and this will be the first time we've heard from him on the foreign fighter issue since confirming the air campaign has not decreased the slow of recruits with projections now of 16,000 foreign fighters in syria and iraq by the end of the year. attorney general holder is now back in the u.s. after meetings in europe with his counterparts from spain, italy, france, the u.k., germany, poland, as well as canada and specifically turkey where the focus was on blocking the flow of foreign fighters into syria and iraq. the threat exists now on two fronts, the recruits who travel

to the region, get training and return home and those who are inspired to act by isis without leaving their home country. and as western nations consider strategies to block recruitment, isis is taking their message to the next level. >> in addition to their monthly magazine which is coming out glossy, very sophisticated, and in addition to some of their videos, i understand they're now starting to put together a daily. in essence, a daily newspaper in terms of activities and scenes from the battlefield. >> reporter: the official stat is that 100 americans have gone to iraq and syria, but privately officials tell fox news they believe the figure is significantly higher than that. eric: catherine, of course, the fear is those 100 americans would come back and attack us here. so what are the biggest security gaps that are letting all these guys through? >> reporter: in the strongly-worded and direct op-ed in time magazine, the chairman

of the house homeland security committee mike mccall says europe is on the brink of what amounts to a jihadist superhighway because of lack of screening in those countries, especially turkey, emphasizing that europe's security problems quickly become ours. quote: extremists are quickly finding even more vulnerable transit points. they have reportedly begun to use cruise ships to get into the country, taking advantage of turkey's more lax security rules for sea passengers. terrorists might use refugee groups as a trojan horse to get into the west. so two hours from now we will hear from eric holder on the administration's strategy with dealing with the increasing flow of foreign fighters into iraq and syria. eric? eric: all right, catherine. it is the threat that we face. thank you. martha: all right. breaking news just crossing moments ago, senator mitch mcconnell has been unanimously elected to be the majority leader of the senate. no big surprise there. but that has now officially come through and tweeted, so that

makes it absolutely official because that's the way things work these days. [laughter] mitch mcconnell will, indeed, be the senate majority leader as expected after, you know, was a difficult race for him in the initial stages, but he pulled away quite a bit toward the end of that election, and he will take over for harry reid and big changes coming on capitol hill. so america's defense chief testifying on capitol hill today about the fight against isis. there you have the live shot now at 10:29 eastern time. secretary of defense chuck hagel is speaking right now, he's giving his opening statement amid reports that the white house may in the midst of rethinking its strategy due to, in large part, the lack of success. a lot of people blame the fact that there have not been enough airstrikes for the reason that we have had so much difficulty in this fight against isis so far. whether or not we need to be more aggressive on the syrian side of the border, all of those

are big, big questions and whether or not we need forces on the ground to help direct those airstrikes that are coming in as well to have greater effectiveness. so we're going to continue to keep a close eye on that, and we'll take you back there. eric: more in a few moments with a former analyst. plus, trying to answer some big questions about the universe, our existence and life itself. >> this comet is a rosetta stone, if you like, for all comets in the solar system of which there's a trillion. so by studying one in enormous detail, we can hope to unlock the puzzle of all of the others.

martha: so the family of michael brown holding a news conference, giving an update on the preliminary autopsy report as the grand jury is continuing to hear testimony from one of the final witnesses in this case. a panel's going to decide whether to charge ferguson police officer darren wilson in the fatal shooting of michael brown early last august. now, garrett tony's joining us

live from chicago with an update on where all this stands today. good morning, garrett. >> reporter: good morning, martha. the brown family attorneys, their main message from the family this morning is two things: they said, let there be peaceful protests and no violence or looting after this grand jury decision comes down. now, the st. louis county prosecutor tells us that decision is expected to come sometime later this month. today the grand jury will hear from renowned forensic pathologist dr. can michael baden. he's the one who performed the private autopsy on michael brown at the request of the team's family. that came after the state's examination of the body. and for the most part, the two reports lined up except for one key difference. the st. louis county medical examiner's report found gunshot particulate on tissue from the teen's thumb. that would indicate that a shot was fired at very close range, and that finding supports officer darren wilson's account of the event, that brown grabbed

the officer's gun before it went off in a struggle. the brown family attorneys with hoping dr. band will be -- dr. baden will be giving access to that tush. meanwhile, folks all around ferguson have been waiting in anticipation for this grand jury decision for the last several months. now, this comes as state leaders are now preparing for what could be another slew of large and possibly violent protests. >> exlessed their views -- people have a right to express their views and grievances, but they do not have the right to put their fellow citizens or their property at risk. as i've said before, violence will not be tolerated. >> reporter: part of those preparations include more than

$100,000 spent stocking up on body armor, tear gas, handcuffs and other gear just in case those protests do turn violent again, martha? martha: garrett, thank you very much. eric: meanwhile, on capitol hill right now opening statements are underway in the house armed services committee hearing that's being held on the administration's strategy against the islam you can terrorists of isis. republic chairman buck mckeon is expressing concern this morning of the limitations president obama has put on our military. >> the oco budget amendment that we received monday afternoon pays for the air campaign and adds more advisers, but it does not appear to reflect any changes in strategy. however, we know that targeting and airstrikes are getting harder as isil changes tactics, and limiting our advisers to headquarters buildings will not help newly-trained iraqi and syrian opposition, their forces,

to hold terrain. much less, defeat isil in the field. yet the president has doubled down on his policy of no boots on the ground despite any advice you have given him. eric: so will our strategy change? if so, what will it be? gillian turner was a member of the white house security could l under president bush and president obama. welcome this morning, first of all. we just heard from buck mckeon raising issues that isis cannot be defeated without boots on the ground. do you think the administration will eventually turn that way? >> i think the reports about a new white house strategy for syria are really overstating what's happening inside the white house right now. i've spoken to senior administration officials this week who maintain that, yes, they want to defeat isis, yes, assad eventually has to go, but it's not in our national security interests to pursue both of these objectives at once. i think what is happening inside the white house is the president's team is constantly

recalibrating based on unfolding events on the ground, but that there's this idea that, you know, we want to take on one first and then the other is not necessarily, you know, set in stone, and we want to avoid taking on both smugglesly as well. eric: -- simultaneously as well. eric: is it possible that we will, could potentially impose a no-fly zone over syria, that we could bomb assad's runways and stop his barrel bombings of the innocent citizens he's been killing? could they take on assad at the same time we try to take on isis? >> well, look, syria is the linchpin in the fight against isis, and it has been since draw one. the u.s. wants to prevent syria from becoming a safe haven for isis fighters as they get driven out of iraq and wants to insure that whatever actions we take don't inadvertently bolster the syrian regime. the rub, as you mentioned, comes with our allies in the region like turkey, like the kurds who really think that assad poses a

much graver and much more imminent threat than isis and wants the president to focus on ousting him first. as far as we are able to tell now though, the administration is holding firm to the position that they don't want to take on both simultaneously. eric: why not? why don't they want to take on assad? seems pretty easy to bomb his airfields and try to have that no-fly zone. it would be, you would think, within the capability of the american military to do that, to at least try to hold 'em back. >> the fear is that by creating, by trying to oust assad at the same time or before focusing on isis in iraq, there would be somewhat of a sort of crisis of leadership, a vacuum created by assad being taken out of the picture. and what that would do in terms of further destabilizing the country in the midst of this poses a really scary threat. i think that's what they're worried about more than the capability to sort of militarily handle both at once. eric: meanwhile, they talk about training the syrian rebels.

5,000, you know, a year. it's going to be at least a year or so before they are ready. so, gillian, what do you think is going to happen? how does this play out, and we defeat isis? >> well, look, it's 96 days into airstrikes in iraq, 50 days that we've been doing airstrikes in syria, and this is costing the u.s. government $8 million a day plus the original $5.5 billion that president obama recently requested for training and equipping, as you moangsed. so, you know, that's why we're seeing this house armed services committee hearing today. congress wants accountability for how and why this money's being spent from people like chairman dempsey and secretary hagel who really have a say. eric: well, they're doing that right now as isis continues. we'll see how it goes. gillian, thank you so much for joining us today. >> thank you for having me. eric: martha? martha: well, the push to roll back obamacare gets some new focus after those shocking comments by a major act text of the law -- architect of the law are sparking outrage.

eric: and u2's bono is lucky to be alive after surviving a midair emergency. ♪ ♪

eric: u2's singer bono was involved in a midair scare over germany yesterday. the rear door of his private jet actually fell off, and they were 15,000 feet above the ground. bono was heading from dublin to berber lin. thankfully, no one was hurt. the plane never lost pressure because the door was in the luggage department. who knows where that is. martha: lucky. the white house is pushing back against claims that a lack of transparency combined with, you know, the stupidity of the american people was key to getting the whole thing passed. they're insisting, though, that the bill was transparent, the white house is, this after the

mit professor, jonathan gruber -- who's now a well known name across the country -- was caught not once, not twice, but now it turns out three different times insulting voters while explaining the ulterior motives behind his strategy. congress bank aaron shock telling greta van susteren it is not the first time. >> it was the then-speaker of the house who told the american people we're just going to have to pass it before we find out what's in the bill. you ask yourself why the american people doesn't trust government? it's because the government doesn't trust the hard working taxpayers. martha: leslie marshall, fox news contributor, and kevin jackson, founder of the -- [inaudible] welcome to both of you. leslie, this guy just keeps digging the hole deeper and deeper, and it doesn't look good for health care.

>> well, martha, i have to tell you, i interviewed jonathan gruber just a couple of weeks ago on my talk show, and we went line by line as to the economic benefits. he didn't call anyone stupid, and although i tell my kids that's a very bad word and i do think it is, the american people aren't stupid. the american voters aren't stupid, and they know that from stupid remarks by a highbrow academic who do speak down to the american people frequently. i'm from boston, i know those mit types. sorry, guys, but now know it's true. the bottom line here is one person's foolish remark that is offensive to the american people and voter does not make a reason for why you should wipe out legislation and take away the health care of thousands and millions of people when you look at two-thirds of the states in this country that don't have exchanges in the states. if we wipe out the law, who would take the health care benefits away from currently based on one person's stupid remarks. martha: okay. kevin, what do you think?

is jonathan gruber just sort of an ivory tower academic, or to does he reflect a larger sentiment that seems to be pervasive in the white house on this bill? >> not only pervasive in the white house, martha, it's pervasive in the liberal community period. look, without the things that happened with obamacare and the strategy that they put together, obamacare would have gone over like a pregnant pole vaulter. it was not going to pass. [laughter] and gruber knows that. and so do most of america. we all realize that this was a joke. look, gruber, gruber did this -- it wasn't one time, martha, it was multiple times that he said this. and the white house can try to walk it back. leslie can claim, oh, he's just a highbrow academic. no, what he is, he's an economist from mit. you can't walk that back. he is the architect of this plan. he knew exactly what he was doing. you can't find -- there's no new doctors, there's no new equipment, nothing about this

obamacare has benefited the american people unless you are getting a rebate which is essentially, that's it. nothing about obamacare. martha: we're also picturing the pregnant pole vaulter going over. >> yeah. martha: and it's probably not pretty having been there three times myself, it probably wouldn't be pretty. i want to pull up a cover of this comic book that jonathan gruber also put out which has led people to say he's once again dumbing this down into comic book form to help them understand what was going on. it turns out when you look at the polls that they did look -- that they did understand. 55% of the american people feel they weren't clear, so it turns out they're pretty smart after all. one of the big things that may have triggered these comments, leslie, is a reinvigorated effort as the gop's part as they come into power to do whatever they can to repeal this bill or to reform it. >> i don't think they needed the reinvigoration, but certainly

mr. gruber's comments have helped that. i mean, despite poll after poll showing the american people regardless of the ideology, that they don't want obamacare to be repealed or replaced, they do want tweaks, they do want improvements in some areas of the legislation to be changed, nobody wants people who are now covered with pre-existing conditions or the thousands if not millions of people who are benefiting. think about it, people on life support right now who may not be with us if they didn't have insurance. and when i was pregnant, no, i wasn't pole vaulting, but to say that americans aren't benefiting from this, especially in the states with the exchanges like where i am here in california, that's not accurate. i know the people that have insurance that didn't have it before -- martha: lots of people who had it that they liked who don't have it anymore and who are paying more for the insurance they like, and those are exactly the people gruber says are too stupid because the insurance companies pass along the costs to them. we have to leave it there. thank you both. it's great -- kevin, we'll get

you out here next time with the pregnant pole vaulter, because we love that comment so much. we can't wait to have you back. [laughter] we'll see you both next time. >> thank you, guys. eric: you didn't pole vault when you were pregnant? martha: no, i didn't. eric: don't do that. for what's happening next on "happening now," jon scott. hey, jon. jon: exclusive information from fox news detailing potential action that president obama intends to take on illegal immigration. the president apparently mulling a ten-point plan that would give citizenship to millions of illegal immigrants. reaction, what the white house is saying now and in-depth analysis ahead. plus, we sit down with former navy seal rob o'neill. you might have seen his story the last couple of nights on fox, the man who says he killed ohs baa bin hand -- osama bin laden. what's next for him coming up, "happening now." eric: all right, jon. see you in about nine minutes from now. well, the future of space

eric: a spacecraft landing on the surface of a comet that could provide new clues on the cosmos and life itself. about 2.5 miles wide, it travels up to 84,000 miles an hour. corey powell, editor at large for discover magazine joins us. corey, this is absolutely unbelievable. it's like plopping a washing machine on a piece of speeding rock. what do you think we can learn? >> yeah, this is the spirit of apollo in the '60s or the spirit of columbus in 1492. it's totally sailing off into the unknown. you know, this comet is a little

piece of the solar system from when the planets formed, from when the earth was born. a lot of the wart on earth today -- water on earth today probably came from comets like this. so when we're going down there and looking around, we're seeing our own origins, our own history. eric: we have pieces of comet in our drinking water? [laughter] uh-oh. i mean, what type of scientific discoveries will they make on this comet? what can it learn, and why would that be different than like going to the moon? >> right. a comet is a totally different thing. a comet is kind of a time capsule. the moon is almost a planet, you know? it's gone through a lot of evolution. its history is disguised. this is something that's intact. it's a leftover piece from the time of origin. so when you look at this comet, you really are looking straight back in time to figure out where we came from, why earth is such a nice place to live, where life came from.

so from a scientific point of view, it's an exciting thing, but also technologically this is an incredible achievement if you want to think of any new way humans are going to explore space, mine asteroids and build a space industry or protect the earth from an incoming asteroid, this is the first step. this is how you do it. eric: 20 seconds. what's going to be there? like organisms or little diseases or minerals or like what? >> i -- probably not life, but probably a lot of the ingredients of life; water, organic chemicals. that's what we're finding out right now. that's why we have that probe down there taking a look. like i said, the most exciting thing about this mission is so far everything's been a surprise, what the comet looked like, what it was like landing. it's been surprise after surprise, and that's when you learn things, when you're doing totally new stuff. eric: corey powell, thank you so much. martha? martha: new details morning on -- this morning on how the white house intends to go it alone with immigration. why some members of the

>> thanks for being here, eric. temporary digs for the day. back in the regular studio tomorrow with bill. "happening now" starts right now. jon: after a sweeping victory by republicans in the midterm elections president obama apparently is preparing to go it alone on immigration. welcome to this edition of "happening now" and i'm jon scott. heather: i'm heather nauert in for jenna lee today. fox news has learned that the president will take executive action to overhaul the immigration system, possibly as early as next week. among the details that we have learned about in this 10-point plan obtained by fox, expanding deferred action for illegal immigrants who came to the united states as children, and then also legalizing millions of adults with american-born children the but republican leaders say that long-expected move is simply a bridge too
