"fox & friends" starts now. bye. good morning. it is tuesday february 24. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. the administration resorting to scare tactics over a heated federal funding battle. >> a shutdown of homeland security would have serious consequences and amount to a serious disruption in our ability to protect the homeland. >> is the white house playing politics with our national security? >> that would be terrible. meanwhile, the mall of america remains on high alert this morning after terrorists threaten to attack shoppers there. now one minnesota lawmaker wants the mall to scrap its no-gun policy and let citizens defend themselves

so they can be armed when they're over by the gap. >> wow. the head of the v.a. robert mcdonald tells a homeless veteran that he was special forces. >> special forces? what years? i was in special forces. >> one problem: he wasn't. and it's causing a lot of controversy. what the v.a. secretary is saying now about not telling the truth to that young man this morning. because mornings are better with friends. >> this is rob lowe and you're watching "fox & friends." >> i am shocked somebody in the administration has a problem telling the truth. >> i am shocked rob lowe does those commercials for cable. >> which rob lowe? >> i cannot watch another one of those commercials. >> i never laugh. you find them entertaining? >> they're crazy. you look at them and go that's rob lowe.

>> do you find them entertaining? you do? you don't even know what we're talking about. >> we're taking a poll and you are officially rob. >> thank you very much. >> we're glad that you all are with us to hear that debate and others. got a lot going on this morning. heather nauert is back. >> good morning. great to see you all. we have a fox news alert to bring you right now. we are just learning that isis has reportedly kidnapped at least 70 christians in northeastern syria. two human rights groups say that the terrorists swept through villages taking dozens of captives with them. it is not clear what their goal is yet or if anyone has been hurt at this time. at the same time we are learning that france has just confiscated passports of six suspected jihadists who were planning to join isis. officials say 40 others will be banned from leaving that country in the coming days. we'll follow that story throughout the morning. back here at home the

mall of america now stepping up security after al-shabaab -- you know the terror group -- released a video threatening the largest shopping center in the united states and now a minnesota lawmaker is challenging the mall's no-gun policy. >> the situation at mall of america is completely ridiculous. it's just the opposite of what they should be doing. if we're threatened with an attack of any type, the last thing you ever want to do is disarm citizens. >> the mall has not responded to this lawmaker's recommendation. at least not yet. the american sniper murder trial expected to wrap up this morning after winter weather delayed the case yesterday. this morning the jury will hear from one final witness and then they'll get closing statement before deciding whether or not eddie ray routh was insane when he killed chris kyle two years ago. if routh is found guilty of murder he'll spend the rest of his life in prison. looks like neil patrick harris will not be asked to

host the oscars again. >> welcome to the 87th oscars. tonight we honor hollywood's best and whitest. sorry. brightest. >> from there it was all downhill. the academy awards suffered its worst ratings in seven years. many panning harris' job hosting, well, they said it was a boring four-hour show. they say that year after year after year. >> you can't blame him. i'm not saying you blame him. you can't blame him. the open was incredible. >> the open was incredible. >> it was long. >> people watch shows for people. the average american didn't watch any of those movies. you watch for an entertainment program. last year i didn't see any of this year's. last year i thought ellen was fantastic. >> i saw -- what did i see? i saw "boyhood." >> you didn't like it? >> it was so disheartening.

i'm still stressed. >> meanwhile exactly five minutes after the top of the hour. we've got a fox news alert. the department of homeland security sounding the alarm saying a shutdown threatened this friday means our national security could be at rick. >> we're live with the latest. >> the clock is ticking. we should sort of maybe put a little running clock at the bottom of the screen. time is running out on fully funding the department of homeland security. i want to point you back to december as i sort of unpack this story for you briefly. remember back then congress fully funded the rest of the federal government for the full year, but g.o.p. leaders held back funding for d.h.s. in reaction to what many are calling the president's unlawful executive action on

immigration. that gives the department budget authority only until midnight friday. >> until congress acts, more than a week from now, more than 100,000 d.h.s. employees will show up to work without getting paid. >> a shutdown of homeland security would have serious consequences and amount to a serious disruption in our ability to protect the homeland. >> so what happens next? yes, the battle continues in congress but keep this in mind. d.o.j. lawyers have asked the federal judges to issue a stay, essentially saying i know that one judge says this is an illegal action on immigration. we're asking you to issue a stay. in other words keep status quo, allowing the executive action to continue. but even that is a bit of a contradiction. we'll be watching how that plays out here in washington. guys? >> kevin, democrats are blocking the bill, but weren't some of them against the president's

executive amnesty business in the first place? >> absolutely. i want to give credit where credit is due because a lot of people feel like this is a one-party issue. it simply isn't. take a look at this list. you're going to see some pretty big names on this list from democratic circles including claire mack cass skill. joe manchin obviously on that list. we hear him all the time on fox news. the president does not have full sweeping authority or full sweeping support of his executive immigration amnesty program. you'll hear a lot more criticism about that in days to come. >> in the meantime you have democrats who have said in the past i'm not comfortable with the executive order and the president was not comfortable with the executive order in the past. he said i wish i could do what i want to do on immigration but i am not involved. joe manchin who will be here shortly is what happened. when are they going to stand up to the president and look out for their party? >> if by friday this

doesn't get passed here, if this new budget is not approved are we left safe? you remember jeh johnson went on five programs saying we would be at a greater risk but yesterday the white house press secretary josh earnest was grilled about what this would mean because there would be individuals who would still be showing up to keep our country safe. so what's the deal. watch. >> people who don't collect a paycheck will not do their jobs as well? >> i'm not saying that at all. the thought that congress because they're not willing to do their job is going to put these patriotic employees in a -- >> you're saying the country will be less safe if these people are not paid because it will have a direct effect on national security. but you're saying these people will do their job even under the onerous condition of not being paid smoip there are a variety -- >> there are a variety of impacts from shutting down homeland security.

i think one of them is an issue of fairness. >> way jeh johnson's warning a scare tactic to get congress to pass this thing? it kind of looks like it given the fact that there are mixed messages. the intel people say there are no credible threats. at the same time you've got jeh johnson saying this outfit, they want to blow up the mall of america. >> you know what else is interesting? you keep hearing we need this funding to keep our nation safe, fine. fine with that. when you hear between 2001 and 2014 this administration spent nearly $150 million on office furniture and office makeovers, it kind of makes you wonder how well they're doing balancing their own budget there. nearly $150 million. >> a great point. at some point when the latest crisis is over they've got to revamp or revisit what they're doing with d.h.s. because nobody is happy there. it doesn't seem to be functioning as one unit. there's units involved that don't seem to be motivated and there's a lot of people that think they're not

doing the job. >> one department we know has not been working is veterans affairs. we know we've told you stories over the last year about how many, many people have apparently died while on the wait list and they were cooking the numbers. robert mcdonald, former c.e.o. of procter & gamble has been hired by the administration to fix things. it was just last week when he claim on television that under his leadership 900 people have been fired since he took over. that is a misstatement. it was way wrong. and "the washington post" in fact gave him four pinocchios. meanwhile fast forward to not long ago, he was out in los angeles -- >> in january. >> cbs was following him. he's out on the street canvassing and talking to homeless vets when he said this -- >> really? army?

navy? >> army. >> what unit? >> special forces. what years? i was in special forces. >> no, he wasn't. that's a lie. >> in a moment of trying to relate he said as i thought about it later i knew this was wrong. he said while i was in los angeles -- his official statement -- engaging a homeless individual to determine his veteran status i asked a man where he served in the military. he said he served in special forces. i incorrectly stated that i had been in special forces. that was inaccurate and i apologize to anyone offended by my misstatements. >> we're all offended. that's a lie. >> it's not a truth. you look at his background. out of everything he could have said, he graduated out of west point completed army ranger training and assigned to the 82nd airborne. with everything that has gone on with the v.a., i don't think that is a big deal. >> it is a good lesson in even trying to relate to someone even though the premise of what was going on

enough, trying to relate to this homeless veteran. it was being filmed for the purpose of this campaign they're working on. but in that moment even the slightest mistruth actually seems to work against the cause. >> it's simply not true and for him to cook the numbers when he said i canned those people over the wait list and then you see this this actually happened before the lie about the wait list, it looks like what kind of a person did the administration hire to run the veterans affairs. a department that is all screwed up and needs somebody who is honest and honorable to fix it. >> the facebook question is going to be this, after the third controversial move by bob mcdonald, do you believe he is the right guy to turn around the v.a.? the same organization that put out guys as crazy as the one that killed chris kyle even though everybody told you he was dangerous two days -- he's out after two days. >> let us know, is this a big deal or not a big deal about bob mcdonald. we'd love to hear from you on facebook, e-mail or twitter. >> coming up on this

the family of kayla mueller, the american hostage murdered by isis, speaking out about the hopes they had for her safe return home. her family claiming they are in talks to secure her release but that changed after the president's taliban swap for bowe bergdahl. >> that made the whole situation worse. that's when the demands got greater, they got larger. they realized that they had something. they realized that if they're going to let five people go for one person, why won't they do this or why won't they do that? >> joining us with his reaction former director of the national security council who led the bush administration's hostage working group, dane egle. >> your reaction to the

family? could things have been done better? >> absolutely. it is predictable because any time you reward bad behavior with an enemy out there, you're going to get these kinds of reactions. i also interviewed former hostages at this time this happened and they said it would create a long-term mess because you're sending mixed signals not only to the family members but also to other countries who are in solidarity with us, also to the terrorist organizations themselves. >> when the president takes these five, what amount to taliban generals and exchanged them for one military man who seems to have deserted, that sends the wrong message. they were already asking for $6.2 million or something like that to free her, for kayla. and then they just pulled it away. >> that price tag or the bounty will only go up when we send inconsistent messages like this. there's a reason why there's a long standing his stoirk policy of -- hoirk

hoirk -- historic policy of no concessions. if you look at the state department, white house and the defense department press secretaries the verbal gymnastics has been noteworthy and they can't really explain it. it's a hard situation. >> that was a situation where this was done at the white house without the pentagon's okay even though they were pushing bowe bergdahl back. if somebody is taken tomorrow, do you feel we have it right? these families feel frustrated because they are civilians and feel the f.b.i. is taking too much of a lead. >> i would say that we currently have a method in place with a hostage working group at the national security council. the process is there. how well it's done, who does it and how they do it, i'm not there anymore. but the fact is it's got to be joint military, interagency, multinational. there is no one agency currently leading.

we do have a mixture of players that we tailor for the situation. every hostage scenario is different and you have to be adaptive and responsive to what's going on. the best place to do that is the national security council where the hostage working group exists. >> the best thing would be if we pulled the trigger early where we knew their location but waited 6 to 12 weeks before we acted. by the time we got there in town those prisoners have been pulled out. thanks so much. ten minutes before the bottom of the hour. coming up straight ahead, do you remember this guy? >> call it the stupidity of the american voter or whatever but that was critical to get the thing to pass. >> really? he's not done yet. how one state jut got gruber and the taxpayer in vermont on the hook. then lose weight by eating? yes, it's possible. we have the foods that burn more calories than they pack on next.

the obama administration fighting back against 26 states in their efforts to end the president's executive order on immigration. they have now filed a stay in an attempt to get a judge's injunction on the order lifted and the white house says the law is on their side. >> the specific measures that the judge has prevented the administration from implementing are actually the same measures that would bring greater accountability to our broken immigration system. there is not just a strong legal basis for the action we're pursuing, there's actually a strong basis for those who are interested in doing the right thing for our economy and for public safety. >> could this latest legal maneuver put the president's plan for amnesty back on track? we're going to ask fox news

senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano. where does it stand? does it put the president's executive order on amnesty back? >> no but that's what the president would like it to do. the president and the administration has every right to file this appeal. there are supporters who would think they are crazy if they didn't do so. the problem is they made some weird and bizarre arguments to the judge in an effort to get him to lift his stay. remember, here's how this started. the president tries to get congress to chang the immigration law. congress for whatever reasons declines. so he signs two executive orders changing it on his own and that affects the states because it makes people who were here illegal but gives them the right to stay. >> placing the burden on the state? >> to provide services, hospital schools welfare. the states say we don't have this money. the president changes the law on his own. we want you to stop this immediately. a federal judge says that.

yes, you probably will win the president is probably wrong, the president probably changed the law and i'm going to enjoin the president. that is what happened last monday. yesterday the president's people filed an appeal in an effort to get the judge to change his mind and if he doesn't change his mind, to appeal his decision. in the papers they filed yesterday they basically said the government will be irreparably harmed if you don't lift this injunction because we need to provide a service to the illegal aliens we promised we would help. so think about this. the government wants to break the law so they be help other lawbreakers stay here. i have never heard the government make an argument like that. i've heard some creative arguments in a courtroom in my life. i never heard a government make an argument like that. >> when you put it like that it's almost unbelievable they can make that argument. will it actually work? >> i don't know but i don't think so. >> why? >> it's a shaky argument to

begin with. it defies what the government is trying to do. you just ran an interesting clip from josh earnest. what he forgot to tell you is the president's proposals were rejected by the congress. only the congress under the constitution can write the laws. the president can't make the law. the president can't change the law no matter how strong is his belief that he has the right to do this. and that's basically what this federal judge told the president last monday. >> how much pressure is the federal judge going to be under? >> he's appointed for life. he's doing what he believes is right. look, if the appeals court does not interfere with what the federal judge has done obama amnesty over. >> do the math for me. when you have work permits and driver's licenses -- >> guess what comes next? right to vote. >> thanks for breaking it down for us. judge andrew napolitano brilliant as always. >> you're so sweet. >> i mean it.

well. >> people think al qaeda is afghanistan. you got pakistan, northern portions of africa. and, of course the big worry is that they go toward the mediterranean. >> it is. the spread of al qaeda and the radical islamic terrorist. their jihad is still to be reckoned with. for the foreseeable future. >> this is what al qaeda was known for it was established back in 1988. responsible for the 9/11 attack. the uss coal attack and claimed the paris terror attack as well. the guy who heads it up right now is. alt jawari where does he leave? >> we think afghanistan, pakistan. this is rough territory, very hard to get into and to weed him out. the influence of al qaeda not just within that region still is significant to be reckoned with as well. >> the group that's grabbing all the headlines is isis.

we've got a graphic that shows how big they are. isis first established in 2004 under the name al qaeda in iraq. the founder was czarzarkawi. separated from al qaeda in 2014. so now as we look at isis the main territory we think of regarding them is syria and iraq? >> this is what they call their interior. this is their caliphate to establish the islamic state. think of isis as four elements. governance governance. having financial support. their campaign which actually is a global reach in terms of the cyber domain. >> the video of where isis marched those coptic christians out on the beach and then beheads them, that's libya. libya once again, just a short trip across the mediterranean from europe.

>> if you think in terms of isis where do they go next? this would be what they call their nearer broad. isis has a strategy which includes a far abroad strategy europe, southeast asia, the united states. >> the group making headlines this week is al shabaab. remember, it was jeh johnson who came out and said there is a terror threat from al shabaab. they might hit the mall of america. they were called a terror group in 2008. they were responsible for the attack on the mall in kenya. so this is al shabaab's neighborhood. >> it is. principally al shabaab over the years have been focused on the cities, many of the towns and villages. the african union they have -- they've been weeded out of mogadishu mogadishu. as you mentioned the westgate mall attack in kenya that killed 64 people.

with the dhs funding bill. that actually has backfired. you did not have enough democrats that would actually vote along with you to hide that off. so the democrats are emboldened they are unified. and they have four times denied allowed this debate to go forward. they're winning in the court of public opinion. it doesn't how many times people who support the tactic of a government shutdown or dhs shutdown, doesn't matter how many times they bang on the table and say the democrats will be blamed. that's not what's happening. the republicans will be blamed. i think they've reached a point where they've figured out a way to get this moving forward. >> the way to get it moving foert is mitch mcconnell who is running the senate on the republican side, he's come up with a plan b. it's a stand alone bill that would block the president's order on amnesty. it's separate from department of homeland security funding. that way they put a lot of red

state senators on the hook on a really tough vote. >> exactly. that way you fund the department of homeland security, which i know there are some people who think it's unnecessary. in my opinion, we asked people who work there to do tough things and help to protect us. i always try to thank the tsa agents when i walk by because they don't want to go through your bag. they deserve the funding. set that aside if you want to deal with reducing funding that's another thing. on this case, i think as well you have the judge in texas that has thrown the president's executive order into the courts will it will eventually be settled anyway. i think this is a smart strategy. you get the red state democrats to have to be on the record on the executive order. you fund the department of homeland security and you can move on to other issues. >> when will that vote be? >> i don't think they've decided yet. last night the senators just got back into town. they will be here for a six week period. and this is the first thing on their plate.

they have a lot of things they will get to the authorization to use military force that the president wants. >> i know dana demands sound effects when she talked. >> not that you need any extra impact. >> the voice of god. >> it's my own fox news alert. >> that's fantastic. it might have been zeus. >> it might have been senator ted cruz. >> do not do that mitch mcconnell. do you think the white house has been using scare tactics to get this thing through? >> of course. but i would -- i think they've actually played this politically pretty well. >> it's wrong to say bad guys are going to blow up your mall unless you pass this, that's -- people don't like that. >> but like are they able to play politics with this? yes, but the republicans have

too. i think giving republican voters false hope that this tactic could actually succeed is just as bad as playing politics and scaring people. >> unless you're going to cut deals with the democrats and get behind the scenes, they shouldn't have gone down this road. we'll have joe manchin a little bit later because he's been somebody that seems to be against the executive order but is voting with democrats. >> and maybe the department of homeland security. >> i think the president said the executive order was not constitutional. a judge just agreed with him in texas. and now we're going to the courts. no matter what this sh going to go to the courts anyway. >> we're going to wash dana later today on "the five." >> she'll be playing herself on "the five." >> with sound effects. >> i think someone we have to hit the gong and move on. >> we were waiting for more sound effects. >> coming up straight ahead, has your kid ever come home with a test like this? praising democrats for creating a path to citizenship and the

got an a by saying republicans are destroying the pathway to citizenship. because if you look at that cartoon right there, that's the message, right? >> correct. >> okay. now, you got a little upset about this. why? >> well because i was looking really -- my son informed me about the assignment before he actually brought it home. so we had some discussions oabout itoabout it. i asked was there an opposing view given you know because the questions as you can see is really one sided. >> sure. >> when i got the assignment back i sort of flipped the piece of paper over thinking maybe the opposing view might be on the other side and it wasn't. that's what surprised me the most about it. >> eventually you wound up talking to the school about it. the statement from the school district says the goal of the lesson was to recognize the

something. the president has got to make a decision on looking -- when we're working together, can he work with us. we're not going to go off the skids and work on the extremes. we'll find the middle, if you will and move forward. this bill is very important. we just had a train accident in west virginia as you know. and we've been told, and basically i know, that if you move this oil by pipeline it's safer for the environment and safer for the people. >> absolutely. >> sure. senator, are you prepared to perhaps, vote with republicans and vote against executive action as we seem to be going into this era of veto? >> as opposed to immigration. >> here is what i have said, basically the president said many times he would never do something as far as that far on immigration, as far as what the executive order is. then he went and did the executive order. we passed a very comprehensive a very bipartisan immigration

bill. and the border control on that bill was done by my dear friend bob corker and another senator. the house can't seem to move anything on immigration. i always said we could not fool with homeland security. we shouldn't send a signal we can't secure our nation without having it attached to riders. i said to my republican friends give us a vote on a clean homeland security bill. i will support the actions basically on a bill that will prevent the president from his executive action. i would support and vote with them on that. we need to have a clean vote on the homeland security bill. >> it sounds like you're going to get your chance. guys and gals from your party have filibustered so far for mitch mcconnell. he will propose his plan b which is stand alone bill about executive amnesty essentially, that they say is

unconstitutional. separate from the department of homeland security funding. so you're a yes with the republicans on that, right? >> yes, on that. i want to -- let's make sure we understand the filibuster. basically, it takes 60 votes. if we filibuster, it takes 60 votes to get on the bill. once you get on the bill, it takes 51 simple majority. happy to debate the bills and talk about them, but we have to have a homeland security bill that basically protects us with all the threats we have going on here within our country and also around the world. with that being said, yes, if he'd give me a bill. let me vote on a clean hoemdmeland security. i think the president overreached. and i would be -- i will be voting with the republicans to repeal the president's actions. but not all -- >> how many other democrats, sir, do you think would vote like you? >> i really can't speak for that. if you want to work with the nine of us who look at the nine would be your obvious choice of

people to look at. the nine of us democrats who voted for the keystone pipeline. you will find nine to 15 moderate centrist and you need six of them. mitch is going to need six. >> senator i got to ask you, they said we're not going to fund homeland security because they don't want -- you did not vote with them. before this vote took place was mitch mcconnell work ing with you and the other eight to try to get your vote? was there some pressure or some. >> horse trading before this? >> not with me there wasn't. i'm not going to speak for the rest of them. mitch and i spoke at the beginning. i said mitch, i can't play politics with this. i can't. i know this is the way it's given to you. i think the senate republicans would rather vote for a clean bill. i think they're trying to help the republican, our friends on the house side. they're in a quandary right now. we've got to put our priorities on on who we are an americans

first. rise above the republican and democrat jargon going back and forth. i think you've seen me vote against the democrats when they tried to do some of the same things. i don't think it's right. >> i agree with you. in the big picture, you got till saturday to fund homeland security. so you're not going to go along with that. what is your view if the funding is not there after saturday? it would just allow these guys and women to go to work and not get paid? >> that's a shame, too. we have 600 people in my beautiful state of west virginia that work for homeland security. it's a shame. if you think 14% of them would be furloughed completely and the rest would have to go to work not knowing when they get their paycheck. we are a better country than this. it shouldn't be a temporary resolution. we always kick the can down. let's do it. i'm voting and i told the republicans let's vote for the clean homeland security bill. let's come back and we'll give you the vote and i'll vote with

you. >> steve said this is your chance, senator. and so steve mentioned that. for your time today and insight on the whole process. we'll talk to you again soon. >> 17 minutes before the top of the hour. coming up do you know somebody at work who talks like this? >> you give me the chance to go on a shoot with you. i treat you lie bay. >> like bay? >> yeah, girl hashtag pick me. >> the biggest etiquette blunders and how to avoid them. hillary clinton claims to be an advocate for women, so why does her new campaign staff, it looks like a boy's club. too many men. ♪ ♪

now the man tasked with fixing the department is under fire for these claims. >> special forces? what years? i was in special forces. >> wow, the problem he wasn't in special forces. your emails are pouring in on this one. by the way, everybody's been surveyed. it turns out mornings are be with friends. >> hello everyone i'm julie andrews, and you're watching "fox and friends." >> julie andrews had a career goal of actually satisfied. lady gaga did a tribute to her on the oscars. >> it was incredible. >> this morning, the hills are alive with the sound of laura ingraham who joins us right now. >> that's frightening. i'm still trying to get over the lady gaga performance. it was pretty good, actually. but, you know, the great julie andrews, that's a tall mountain to climb. you can't climb every mountain if you're trying to emulate her.

>> you were right. >> and cave in to pressure. oh, we can't endanger the country. think about this, guys for the last six years the administration has taken an on again, off again approach mostly off again to immigration enforcement. they've pulled back the border patrol to within i think, we learned yesterday on my radio show, sometimes 40 miles from the border, a lot of the agents are. who are doing no interior enforcement except maybe some violent criminals. now they're talking about the nation are being in danger. this is all a lie. if we had republicans who actually disagreed with obama on amnesty. we only have a handful. if we had more republicans who were honest about this they would be saying what i'm saying today. we don't believe you, mr. president. this is scare tactics. you're the reason this department won't be funded.

own it. too many republicans are shackled by the chamber of kmurs commerce. they say we have to put the nation first. >> when it comes to the executive order, there was up to nine, maybe even more democrats who said we don't think this is right. because the president said it 22 times. one of those people who is not voting with republicans to deny homeland security funding because of executive order is senator joe manchin. listen to what he told us a short time ago. >> the president said many times he would never do something as far as that far on immigration, as far as what the executive order is. then he went and did the executive order. i said to my republican friends give us a vote on a clean homeland security bill. i will support the actions as basically on a bill that will prevent the president from his executive actions. i would support and vote with emthe onem him on that. we need to have a clean vote.

>> it sounds like that's going to happen. mitch mcconnell is coming up with plan b. >> i know allf ous look real young, but we weren't born yesterday. that's a nice move from mitch mcconnell who is smart guy. he kind of knows the legislative munufraneuver maneuvering. they're going to wash their hands, look we had a vote. we couldn't defund the president's executive amnesty. they tried. they do not try if they don't give the president a bill that defunds the efforts to put forth an unconstitutional amnesty. this will not work. manchin knows it's not going to work. mcconnell knows it won't work. jeff sessions, ted cruz a few others like tom cotton, they are doing the right thing. everyone watching "fox and friends," if you disagree with what the president did, if you think it dangers our republic to

have an executive, this thing is going south fast i fear for our constitution. >> i want to stay on the topic of danger. the mall of america today preparing for the worst. they have since al shabaab through in their face they will attack there. now, there's a lawmaker there urging that the fact that the minnesota, they dropped the gun policy, because they have a no carry zone there. and he is saying that americans shed should be able to protect themselves here. >> the situation with mall of america, is completely ridiculous, it's the opposite of what they should be doing. if we're threatened with an attack of any type, the last thing you want to do is disarm the citizens. if i were a terrorist, the first place i would look to go thooino

inflict mass casualties is where people are not armed. >> i don't think we should jump every time the freaks with the ace bandages around their faces put out videos. the malls have always been soft targets in this country before 9/11. we're always worried about security at malls. i do believe these no gun policies, maybe they were passed with some degree of good will, but i've never thought they helped. how does that help? somebody who is going to commit a crime doesn't care about a no gun policy. the one one who has to worry about that is a law abiding american who is trained and proficient in the use of a firearm to protect one's self or others. i don't think these gun policiesyies generally work. if this is point where we can have a debate about this great. these videos we react so emotionally to these videos. we should have a clear headed

debate about how to best secure the homeland without changing our way of life. we >> you're supposed to be extra careful if you're shopping at the mall of america. >> particularly careful. >> i've been to the mall of america many times. i'd only be careful of eating the fast food near the roller coasters. >> brandon and i have actually been on the roller coastermentf it goes fast. for indoors, it goes fast. it was our own free time if human resources is watching. >> we took the camera crew remember. >> i remember that. you guys get all the fun trips. >> lovely. the republicans did not pay for our trip. we paid for our trip. >> that's what brought us there, though. we had to cover the convention. >> you said you were having fun. >> don't you guys the isis the al shabaab if they are tough guys why don't they take the ace bandages off their faces?
