federal judge has locked the program on the eve of its launch. the president says there will be an appeal but for now he must abide by the judge's ruling. plans by tens of thousands of immigrants who hope to apply for work permits and deportation stays have been put on hold. attorneys for eddie routh will present their defense in a texas courtroom. prosecutors finished presenting their case. roug -- routh's lawyers are launching an insanity defense. i'm jackie, ibanez. "hannity" starts now. the terminology has little or no impact on what we have to do. >> eric holder calls out fox news over the term radical islam. >> if fox didn't talk about this they wouldn't have nothing else to talk about. >> more stunning naive comments

about the obama administration about combating isis. >> we cannot win this war by killing them. >> killing won't work but this will? >> we need to go after the root causes that leads people to join these groups. whether it's lack of opportunity for jobs. >> and a story tonight you'll only see on "hannity" -- >> the great thing about not being president anymore ska whatever you want. >> new developments on bill clinton's connection to the billionaire pedophile jeffrey epstein. >> unless your wife might run for something, then you can run for anything you want as long as it doesn't make a headline. >> could the former president be called to testify. geraldo rivera. >> geraldo and the donald will be right here. >> it's a tough one. we'll see what happens. >> "hannity" starts right here, right now. welcome to "hannity." the obama administration strikes again. >> we spend more time, more time talking about what do you call it, as opposed to what do you do

about it. really? if fox didn't talk about this, they'd have nothing else to talk about. >> that's not all last night the state department spokeswoman said this about isis. >> we're killing a lot of them. and we're going to keep killing more of them. so are the egyptians, and the jordanians jordanians. but we cannot kill our way out of this war. we need in the longer term medium and longer term to go after the root causes, whether it's lack of opportunity for jobs. we can work with countries around the world to help improve their govern nance. we can help them build their economy so they can have job opportunities for these people. >> stimulus shovel-ready jobs program for terrorists, that will stop it. the white house needs a reality check, because tonight there are new reports that isis has now executed 45 people in iraq, burning them all alive. standing by in washington with much more, katherine we have

copenhagen, 21 christians beheaded, now 45 iraqis burned to death. >> the report was first carried by the bbc. here in washington there was no immediate response from the u.s. government officials. we know the iraqis have been under siege by isis for months until it fell last thursday. the pentagon confirmed heavy fighting in the area. the police chief in al baghdadi said targeted members of the security forces there, and a second news organization al jazeera said charred bodies as many as 30 have been recovered. while fox news is seeking independent confirmation. it's five miles from the air base where 320 marines are stationed as trainers for the iraqi military. a former intelligence officer who has worked there said they could see the town of al baghdadi from the base gates. a military analyst with contacts on the ground said the u.s. does

have satellite and drone surveillance in the area and would know almost in realtime whether the mass execution took place. >> because al baghdadi is within essentially five miles of one of the most active training locations we currently have in iraq, there's no doubt that we have persistent surveillance. that is to say, 24/7 surveillance on this location. the u.s. intelligence community will know very rapidly what happened there. >> tonight a new four-minute video linked to the islamic state appears to show kurdish prisoners paraded through the streets in kirkuk, iraq. the prisoner convoy with the orange jump suits and iron cages is a carbon of the circumstances surrounding the jordanian pilot who was burned to death and this clearly shows a pattern, sean. >> katherine in washington tonight, thank you. with all of these disturbing developments of rise of radical islam, the obama administration wants you to know that they're taking terrorism very seriously. how? they're hosting a three-day-long

conference on quote countering violent extremism. the post reported it's a three-day summit on violent extremism and social media. but the administration will not focus on islamic extremism. won't even mention the term. >> reporter: that's right. they said that again and again. and they pushed back by saying intelligence report e look, they're terrorists. whether they're islamic or not. we're just going to call them terrorists. so you've heard eric holder, the attorney general general, they're not going to give in on that point. interesting, because the president officially today unveiled ash carter. they brought in report irs so the president can again repeat that he's going to defeat isis. interesting, because as the summit kicked off, vice president joe biden gave remarks there. he talked about what marie harv was talking about. you can't have the u.s. military defeat isis, you need other tools. that's why she was talking on msnbc about maybe give them

jobs, give people more hope. that won a lot of ridicule today. but she noted on twitter that george w. bush, the former republican president, had said that fighting poverty could also help defeat terror. though retired general jack keene told us today look, those tools are helpful but they'll only go so far to beat terrorism. >> making sure we're dismantling isil and not only stabilizing the situation in iraq, but addressing the foreign fighter issue and countering the narrative of violent extremism that has been turbo charged through the internet. >> you have the ideology stop the finance, and get at the root causes of political reform, social injustice. that is true. but in front of us is isis who is marauding over iraq and

syria, not libya. the only way to stop them is to kill and capture. >> in those comments in the oval office, the president did not specifically mention those christians who were killed over the weekend. remember, the white house statement that came out from josh earnest on sunday also did not mention their faith. just referred to them as egyptian citizens. interesting, because today pope francis for the second straight day called those christians who were killed martyrs. he said specifically their throats were slit. just because of their faith. >> it is interesting they didn't identify them as christians, and they were killed for their faith, and only for their faith. is it coming up in any of the briefings, ed the comments of eric holder suggesting blaming fox news and this whole idea that they won't just say the words radical islamic terrorism? >> reporter: well, there was no briefing today. josh earnest didn't have it because there was a little snowstorm here in washington. you can guarantee tomorrow when there's a briefing that's going to come up. something else that's

interesting is that in contrast to the statement that did not mention christians being killed we went back and looked, and the president himself put out a written statement last week about the three muslim students who were tragically killed at the university of north carolina. and in that statement, the president said, nobody should be targeted because of their faith. so in that statement, they did inject faith. even though we don't have all the facts yet. >> the interesting thing is many reports said that that killing tragically as you point out took place over a parking spot. it might not have been a hate crime. >> reporter: we don't know yet. you're right. >> ed henry at the white house tonight. thank you, sir. joining me strategic analyst colonel ralph peters. among all the stupid things i think i have heard about radical islam, the state department jobs program has to be ranked the highest among them. that's their mentality, colonel. maybe we should give people free housing, terrorists housing and maybe we should give them

ferraris, and obamacare. i've seen a lot of terrorists on tv that need dental work. maybe free dental care. maybe that will make them like us. that seems to be the mind-set. what's your reaction to that comment? >> let's unpack what she said. marie harf in exhibit "a" for the u.s. educational system, that woman has a masters degree in international relations from the university of virginia. moms and dads save your money. what she was saying about jobs terrorists need jobs? then we give them a union card and path to citizenship? i mean, osama bin laden was wealthy. and a major in the army, as i recall. the guy in copenhagen this last weekend, when he pulled the trigger, trying to kill a cartoonist and as many other danes as he could because he screaming jobs jobs jobs? no he was screaming allah akbar. the other thing she said, in the

same interview is we can't kill our way out of a war. hey! marie! war is about killing! you get out of wars by killing enough of the other guys until they quit, or they're gone they're finished. she heard somebody somewhere say we can't kill our way out of this. somebody else said it. >> nazi germany, or japan i'm trying to understand the mentality. another part of me wants to laugh, but the other part of my wants to cry. you've got eric holder. they continue to cling steadfastly, refuse, they cannot utter the words radical islam. eric holder blames fox. they have a three-day summit on extremism on the internet. but they won't mention the term radical islam even at the summit. they won't focus on islamic extremism. yet the president mentions the crusades. >> yeah. well, let's look at what eric holder said. first of all the attorney general should worry a little less about fox news and a little

more about islamic terror. sean, it underscores the one thing the obama administration and the putin regime have in common, they hate a free media, because it challenges them. and i'm sure obama sometimes wishes he had putin's authority. now, consider the identification yo si, the sheer idiocy of what president obama said. terminology doesn't matter. if terminology doesn't matter why not call them islamist terrorists. this is kindergarten marxism. >> this is the equivalent to me of genocidealgenocidal, a movement similar to nazism in terms of its fer vensy, et cetera. reverend franklin graham put out a statement and talked about, imagine the outcry, because he talked about the message that was given prior to the beheading of these 21 people. that was yesterday. 45 iraqis were burned today. reported by the bbc, and

catherine harage. the message of the killing of christians was, you know, a message signed with the blood of the nation of the cross. and he said imagining the outcry, how would obama have reacted if 21 muslims had been beheaded by christians. do you think it would be different? >> oh, of course it would be different. president obama, he romanticizes islam. he's just got a soft spot for it. if you look at the pattern, it seems clear to me, that he thinks the answer to the middle east problems is to empower the muslim brotherhood. i say that because look at the way he fully backed, beyond the bitter end the muslim brotherhood regime in egypt, even after the people rejected it. he will not criticize the president of turkey who is crushing the free press, because he's a muslim brother. he will not take on qatar which is treacherous. instead, he elevates them as a partner. they back the muslim

brotherhood. and so on and so on. the muslim brotherhood is not the answer to any problems i see. they're just a lesser part of the problem. and so you've got a president who resists learning resists evidence, has a romantic picture of islam and just sees christians and jews as somehow the -- >> i think it is pathological. >> it is pathological. >> there is a pathological disconnect from reality here. colonel, we've got to run, though. thank you. we have coachen hagen, 21 christians beheaded and 45 iraqis burned today. that's by radical islamists. coming up, christianity judaism under attack worldwide. geraldo and donald trump are here to recap this season of "celebrity apprentice." a federal judge delivers a major blow to president obama's executive order on immigration. tonight in an exclusive interview, the texas governor

problems lectures christians, but after isis beheaded christians, they never used the word christian in their statement from the white house. they're coming out strongly against the latest executions including new york cardinal

timothy dolan who said, quote, civilization is threatened by the evils of isis and it's not just christians under attack. anti-semitism is on the rise in europe with jewish cemeteries both in france and germany being vandalized. reaction from the author of what every christian needs to know about passover. and muhammad and the author of the book the way of serenity fox news contributor, father jonathan morris. the paris kosher supermarket, we have 21 coptic christians christians slaughtered around the world, all in the name of radical islam. why doesn't the president mention that? he mentioned the student incident that happened last week about religion. >> it's mysterious. there's got to be a reason, i'm not sure exactly what it is. if i had to guess, but i don't like to judge souls, but if you asked, i would say he's in a way

afraid to offend the peace-loving muslims. the imam can speak to this. but it's a little bit like saying, because not only germans are nazis, i'm not going to speak out against nazism. no. actually, the best thing for germans would be for us to speak out against nazism and say, that is an evil. and that needs to be eradicated from german society. that's what we need to start doing. and we need the president to lead. >> imam, why aren't more imams like yourself, more muslims speaking out? because this is being done in the name of your religion, islam. >> the merciful benefactor and redeemer. the 21 coptic christians and the 45 muslims killed today and the three muslims in north carolina. >> the iraqi security forces. >> but they were muslims in their faith. >> we don't know that. >> we know as much about them

as -- >> but in the name of your religion, you're not addressing my question. >> i don't have a lockbox to hold the name of islam sacred. all we can do is tell you the actions of these people do not represent islam. therefore, it is -- >> why do they call them islamic state? >> why would the wolf call himself other than something that would allow him to get on the other side of the door? >> the promise of the koran said they get 72 virgins, so they say. >> the koran does not say that. sean no disrespect to you. the koran doesn't mention anything about 72 virgins. >> but that's what people are being told. >> someone misled them. that's not correct. >> we have all these -- the grave sites that have been desecrated in germany, paris, et cetera. there was an undercover reporter who will join us on the show

tomorrow night, and he went to some of the muslim neighborhoods in paris. the video shows people spitting at him, calling him jew with a negative connotation. one kid says mommy, doesn't he know he's going to be killed here? he has to leave because his life is threatened. we see this rise of anti-semitism in europe. and the prime minister said, come to israel. and has allocated money for european jews to return to israel because of what's happening. how bad is it? >> it's bad. i mean more jews are leaving europe than in decades. in france, had the highest rate of emigration to israel than any other country. and this is a historic community. i think we're really in a crisis. and it's been the last 15 years. and i think prime minister -- i mean, i hope that we have a strong european jewish community. >> sean, just to respond to imam

sadick. but he said there were 45 muslims killed today as well. >> by iraqi security forces. >> they were not killed because they were muslim. these were killed because they were defending a society of peace and tolerance of all people. pope francis today talked about -- or yesterday talked about 21 coptic christians who were killed why? >> martyred. >> precisely because, and the only reason why they were killed was because they were christian. >> by radical islamists. >> do we know that as a fact? >> sure we do. >> my heart goes out to them, no matter what. but we don't know that as a fact. >> imam did you watch the five-minute video? >> i watched what you sent me. >> no did you watch the five -- did you see 21 people simultaneously have their heads cut off as i did? did you watch that? it was done in the name of allah. it was done with the preamble

about allah. >> no matter what a vampire does, that does not -- my heart goes out for the 21 no matter what the reason was. there's no justification for taking innocent human life. i don't care who they are. christians, muslims or -- >> but it's religious-based violence. >> and i don't disagree. >> why did the terrorists go into a kosher grocery store in france. was it random? absolutely not. he was targeting jews. >> i can't argue for what -- >> we should have seen this coming. of course it was targeted toward christians. >> quick last word. >> i think we should give credit -- just a minute. i think we should give credit where credit is due. the king and queen of jordan have been exceptional in deciding that they are not poe-excuse me, of jordan, are exceptional in going after --

>> so is general el sisi. >> el sisi, what are we going to say about that. >> we've got to go. guys, thank you. appreciate it. coming up bill clinton's questionable relationship with jeffrey epstein. could this cause trouble for hillary come 2016? bill clinton may be forced to testify. later tonight -- >> the winner of the "celebrity apprentice" is -- geraldo did not win "celebrity apprentice," but he did raise a lot of money for his charity. is donald trump running in 2016? i'll ask him. i'll ask geraldo if he'll vote for him. that's allllllllllll

questions continue to surround former president bill clinton and his connection to convicted pedophile jeffrey epstein. clinton could be called to testify under oath in a current civil case brought against epstein by one of his alleged underage sex slaves. justice with judge jeanine. how are you? good to see you guys. >> good to see you. >> i am told politically inside clinton camp that all hell's breaking loose and great fear over this case. >> it's the kind of case if he got exposed, that can affect hillary badly. because once again, it brings up all those relationships. >> it's worse than that this time. >> yes. but i'm not a lawyer. so i don't know if he'll be called to testify or not. but it's the kind of thing that they want to go away quickly. >> epstein under oath would not -- pled the fifth when asked about clinton. >> sean i've never heard anything so absurd in my life. i've done this most of my life.

for someone to say, do you know bill clinton and the person questioned pleads the fifth, when is it incriminatory to say the president? what is going on here? this span dor a's box of powerful rich men who had access to underage girls, children, 9th graders 8th graders who were brought to them by jeffrey epstein for purposes of sex. here's the rub. i have never seen anything like this, sean. with 40 alleged victims this defendant, powerful epstein's masters of the universe, are allowed to plead to one count. serve 13 months in jail. >> half time. >> yes. but it gets even better. mandatory minimum sentence of trafficking of victims in sex crimes is 20 years. at the end of the day, the feds say, we've got a nonprosecution

agreement, we're never going to prosecute you, let's wrap this up in a bow and say good-bye. everybody thought it was going away, until some of the women victims, are saying, hey, you didn't get our permission. you put us in the grand jury. you said charges were coming. you hid that the feds were working out a deal to protect the masters of the universe. the issue now are they going to open up that box that was sealed in the hopes of it never coming out. and i think it may be reopened. >> explain. how would that impact the campaign? >> okay. if the judge says wait a minute, these victims' rights have been violated under the crime victims rights act, these young girls didn't have a say, in fact, were lied to, the whole case is reopened. >> clinton could be called for depositions, testimony the whole nine yards? >> more importantly, what will happen if that were to happen because no one in the country except for this show, talked

about this. >> by the way, we're known for being ahead of the curve. >> more than once. >> barack obama was one example. >> exactly. anyway, what will happen is the country will find out one, something they believe people do deals behind the back from get out of doing murder, or any other crime. it's about children. and it's about use of young women. it is about old men going down to take advantage. if this comes, and it's forced to a trial, or blows open, guess who it implicates now. hillary clinton, who has said nothing. it implicates -- >> these are -- >> i want to make another point real quick. what's wrong with the clintons right now when the stuff we're talking about today, the beheadings and so forth her silence. she sent out a tweet about vaccinations. she is a major person, and clinton may have said nothing about where the country is on this. >> bottom line pedophiles young girls and powerful men. if this is opened, hillary clinton, the impact on her, you

said, you know i was a little bit worried you might pick me. because we would have been killed by all the women. >> we would have been picketing outside fox news. >> i did lobby for john rich and you as a friend. and you listened. but obviously -- >> john rich was a different type of player. people liked him. people respected him tremendously. but not everybody liked him. but everybody respected geraldo i'll say that. the energy and drive and condition. in the shorts, he took a little heat. >> do you think? >> i think he looked good. a lot of people talked about how tough it was to work with geraldo. we've got a little montage of that. >> geraldo was like a frickin' steam roller. >> why don't we call this team geraldo. >> you try to get revolutionary war reenactments. >> when geraldo starts rolling, it gets bigger and bigger. not when it's six feet tall.

i think geraldo asked the right question. are you really serious about running for president? >> first of all, nbc wants very much to have another season. they said please announce it. please announce it on the air. the executives of nbc. there were plenty of them there. i said i'll announce it, but i'm going to say i have to take my time. because i am doing something else. they didn't care about that. they just wanted me to announce there's another season. so i announced it. but i also said i am going to take my time. i think you heard that. and a lot of people said, what does that mean? the smart people knows what it means. i'm looking at something very seriously. >> you've done this before. geraldo brought that up. >> i only did it once. the last time i did have a problem, first of all, i had a signed contract. i was building jobs all over the world. but my children are older and really doing great as executives. which i think you can attest to. >> amazing family. most impressive. >> thank you. >> and the best thing, they're not spoiled kids, they all work hard. >> they do.

we're building a building on pennsylvania avenue, just finishing up -- >> here's the big question. on a scale of one to ten, how close are you mentally emotionally, spiritually to the idea of running for president? >> much more than five. much more than five. on the scale. >> would you vote for him for president? >> i would. but he has to commit to it. he has to ar tick late the conservative philosophy that he does in the board room, on and off camera. he is the consummate entrepreneur. now he can make america the most successful capitalist entity in the history of the planet. >> isn't it sad that jordan and egypt are tougher on isis than america is? there's a sense that i do believe one thing that you would be very successful at, in making america feel like we should be number one. we lost that status. and you would want to gain that back. that would be a powerful platform. >> they don't know what they're doing. and number two they can't negotiate. look at what's going on with

iran, where they take the sanctions off in the middle of the negotiations. you should make the sanctions tougher. so many different problems. isis is one of the big ones. we just are not doing it right. >> okay. and he announces you're in i heard it. >> somebody said i could be the press secretary. i would love that. >> be careful. he has a history of throwing chairs. >> he's fantastic. >> congratulations. another great season. great job. proud of you. coming up, president obama's executive order on immigration takes a huge blow from a federal judge. you owned your car for four years. you named it brad. you loved brad. and then you totaled him. you two had been through everything together. two boyfriends. three jobs. you're like "nothing can replace brad!" then liberty mutual calls. and you break into your happy dance. if you sign up for better car replacement,

and i'm confident that it is well within my authority and the tradition of the executive branch's prosecutorial discretion to execute this policy, which will help us make our borders safer. >> here now to explain what this means, the man who filed the initial lawsuit, that's texas governor greg abbott. governor, good to see you. welcome back. >> thank you, sean. >> you're one of 26 governors, but you were first. and i assume this now goes to the u.s. court of appeals for the fifth circuit. that's a pretty conservative area. >> well, this will go to the court of appeals next. and then obviously it will go on to the supreme court. but i think we will win all the way for one simple reason. and that is, the man you just had on the screen barack obama, is our star witness. 22 times barack obama said he did not have the authority to implement this type of measure. and then the day after he signed this into law, he said, quote i

just changed the law. those words alone show that he violated the constitution and violated federal law. >> the supreme court has shown a great deference to rights, if it goes to the fifth circuit court of appeals and then to the supreme court, they're not likely to win. >> i think things look solid on our side in part because of the facts. and in part because of the law. this is not prosecutorial discretion like what the president just said. this is what the judge said in this case. that is making up the law from scratch. the judge also said this was a complete abdication of this was a complete abdication of the federal government to enforce the law. >> governor great work. i'll glad you filed that suit. that was a successful night i agree with what you just said,

thank you, sir. >> thank you sean. >> joining me now miami herald columnist aj delgado. what is your reaction? >> 22 times, president said he couldn't do it and did it anyway. >> that is right. 22 times he said he could not bypass congress and change the law, and that is what he did. so it should come as no surprise a judge found against us. he never had authority. saying well, we're going to look the other way and i'll prosecute you for illegal activity. he took it a step further and said we're going to grant you legal status and give you thank god if there is a judge instead of trampling on the

constitution, it's reading the law correctly. >> oh mr. hannity, come on. i'm on page 50 in this opinion. it has to do with whether states have standings to bring it. and the second is the -- judgment case. the judge said this was made from whole cause the president is writing a new law. >> it's not a new law, it's a new exercise of discretion. >> now, he's expanding the class. >> how is he not granting them legal status? >> well let me finish. he's saying -- >> it gives them legal status. >> to be here legally for x amount of time. yes, they're here legally. they can have licenses and work permits.

this is what this is grievous. he not only went to have to avoid avoid discretion. and >> and i think this -- >> wow i don't get to say anything today >> let's talk about this francisco. >> guys bottom line he didn't give them legal status, any permanent, anything. >> he goes to fifth circuit court of appeals . >> i agree with the new republic. aj congratulations. >> we're in disagreement. >> aj has a new column with the miami herald with twice weekly. and congratulations on that. >> thank you sean. >> coming up, we need your help on the issue of the
