12:00 pm
march, well, there's daydreams of golf in the very near future. >> i drink heavily and often. that's basically what i do. and just try to stay alive, stay positive and watch as much fox news as possible. >> got to say i love the skiing and the hockey and agree with jesse.=s- got to have a shot of vodka sometimes to just make it through the winter. thank you for being part of the real story. here's harris. >> could be a crucial moment for a likely presidential candidate. governor jeb bush stepping stepping into the spotlight and taking questions from sean hannity. we're now fewer than nine hours until the department of homeland security goes broke. why did the house just suddenly take recess as the fight over funding drags on? >> the pentagon said it made progress as it targets the
12:01 pm
islamic state on its own turf but a to be fbi official says we're losing the fight on a completely different battlefield. let's get going. first, man who discovered discovered his mom's life legislation body had a meltup and led to mass murder. that's the theory investigators are working with in missouri and tell that to local reporters. now we waiting on a news conference from the sheriff with more details. happened in the small town of tyrone, about an hour east of springfield, and police found out about the whole rampage when a young girl called 9-1-1 after hearing gunshots. when police got there they found two people dead in the home. and that was just the awful beginning. four different crime scenes were covered today. nine people, one of them the gunman, who police say killed himself, and according to the st. louis post dispatch newspaper now, police checked the killer's home and found his mom dead on the couch and they say she died of natural causes and had been dead for at least a
12:02 pm
full day. police are not saying how she and the gunman actually were connected to all of the rest of the victims, and in a town where murder is rare, a sergeant said he was having trouble keeping track of the number of dead. at one point he ended enhaving to count on his fingers while speaking with reporters. mike tobin is live. the death of this mom, we understand -- the theory that may have triggered this. >> reporter: right. that's the speculation of the texas county coroner, tom whittaker, as reported by thela7l"jx "st. louis post dispatch." meant went to the mother russ 'yzpd4ouwpgafter the shooting spree, and they found her dead on the couch. then possibly the gunman, who found her, win on the spree, went to the additional scenes. four additional houses and shot people in the homes. they are now detailed as three women, four men ages 40s into their 60s. the man police are identifying as the gunman, 36 years old,
12:03 pm
also found dead 25 miles away in shannon county. looks like the drove to the location, drove off to the side of the road and turned the gun on himself. the first person to call police was a girl possibly a teenaged girl. one police source says she was in the base0. the home, heard the gunshots upstairs, fled to a neighbor's house and police were called. >> so, mike, i just want to draw everybody's attention and we can put this up on the split screenç so they'll know what i'm looking at this news conference set to take place. we were getting dribs and drabs of information but there's so much we learned since then. tell me about the small tone. it's always difficult when these things happen, no matter how big or small but particularly in small town because everybody knows each other. >> right. this is a peaceful area because there's not many people. we're talking about the missouri
12:04 pm
ozarks, very beautiful in the fall or wintertime with the snow on the ground. it's not uncommon for texas county to go a you're or two years without any homocide at all and now you have seven homocide, a suicide, and a connected death, all in one night. we know that they set up some counseling at the local school, in a town called houston not to be confused by houston, texas so this will send shock waves through an otherwise peaceful flays. >> one thing t this far into the story from the people who walk up, including the sheriff, to that lectern, is timeline how this came together. it was rapid for us. can you take us through that to set the scene for everybody? >> to do that you have to back up to the speculation of tom whittaker, the texas county coroner. it was some time@ around 10:00 in the evening when the shooting spree started and according to
12:05 pm
the speculation this 36-year-old man went to his mother's house. again, as identified by the reporting. found her dead. she had been there for a while. and whatever the facts were around that, that sparked him to go to the other locations. so we're wondering what sparked the police to check on these other locations. well appears the motivation was house -- was somehow domestic a family squabble, something tied to that. that's why they would check on the other houses, and now what we have is information through sources that they only went to the mother's house because of the shooting spree. so it looks like we may see a family connection as the authorities start to give out more details around -- beyond what we know that the police say has been hard for them to deal with this much violence in an otherwise peaceful place. >> is a mentioned and people were watching around thea? 10:00 a.m. eastern point is when we were covering the news conference on america's newsroom this morning they can see the
12:06 pm
coroner, and he literally lost himself for just a moment. had to take a beat to actually get out the number of victims. it was very chilling, and jarring to watch it at the time. you can only imagine the emotion flowing through the room too, because many of the reporters obviously know people in the town as well. i'm reading on the "associated press" wires now this house-to-house rampage, as it's being described, you mentioned the 15 or 16-year-old we think we know the age of, the young girl who made the call, but the victims were adults. that's what i'm seeing. >> yes. that is the indication there, ages from their 40s to 60s, which frankly i think is a breath of relief. earlier in the day they were setting up counseling at the local school. that was an indication more kids were involved. if the only kid who was involved is the little girl who heard the gunshots upstairs and ran off to the neighbor's house it's some what aap relief but the poor girl
12:07 pm
will be traumatized for her life because there's every indication the people in the house were z1ç mother and fathers' and hat has been reported through different sources. >> tyrone, missouri an hour east of springfield 40 miles north of the arkansas border. you're describing it as a small town. tell me about what is going on there at this point if you can, mike ahead5ñ of news conference which we're watching for. >> all of the crime scenes are described as still active so you're going to have the missouri state police, the drug and crime enforcement units who are there. you also have the texas county sheriffs who are present at all of these crime scenes and really, a total of six crime scenes you're talking about. four different houses in whichzv]ññ the victims were shot. but you also have the house in which the woman now reported as the mother was found and beyond that you have to cross over to shannon county, 25 miles away. that is where the car or truck was pulled off to the side of the road and the 36-year-old man
12:08 pm
turned the gun on himself. at that location. so six active crime scenes in a place that is otherwise peaceful. so a lot of people are very shaken up right now. >> mike, let's go to investigators giving us an update in tyrone, missouri. let's watch. >> missouri state highway patrol. sheriffs will be joining us shortly here. we'll get started with the news conference. kinder.b> the sheriff are hail. >> signature minute, sigmam. >> first name. >> james james. he is the sheriff of texas county.o/3ç
12:09 pm
>> we're watching for this to get underway. sometimes what will happen in these instances everybody is getting their shot, getting their microphone turned on. they had to do this a couple of times today to get set. it's a multiscene murder investigation so it sometimes can take a moment for local authorities to get going. but we're going to stay with this and see if he takes questions and see what happens. i know mike tobin was just talking with us so he is standing by watching this as well. but let's take a beat here and
12:10 pm
see if he begins.s7h&yae÷ >> again, what can sometimes happens. it's live television and as they pull into place and get ready we'll keep going here. i had asked mike tobin earlier to set the scene about these crime scenes that he whereas righto5ñht about. there are four homes involved in the shooting rampage then you have the house where the mom was found. police believe that her death was of natural causes and the theory investigators are working on and we'll likely mary more about this at the news conference -- the theory they're working on is whether or not the mom's death and this gunman finding her dead on the couch may have triggered this whole thing. let's watch. >> the press release we had this morning at 9:00 a.m. as part of the ongoing investigation into the multiple homocides in texas county, the names of some of the shooting
12:11 pm
victims are being made available for release at this time. sarah aldrich age 52. julie ann aldrich age 47. husband and wife. harold lane aldrich age 50. generalel aldrich age 48. they're also husband and wife. three victims names are not being released pending notification of their next of kin. the elderly woman is identified as alice aldrich 74. although her cause of death appears to be of natural causes the postmortem examination will be performed tomorrow february 28th
12:12 pm
missouri state highway patrol and the sheriffs department. we will take your questions at this time. and like i said this is texas county sheriffs james sigman. >> are the other three victims you're not naming right now -- were they all in the -- not the aldrich family but all of the same family? >> no, they're not. no. one of them belonging to a couple was in the hospital and not home, therefore escaping potentially being a victim. >> to the best of your ability can you lay out in chronological
12:13 pm
order what happened? >> my officers received a call at 10:00 p.m. last night from a juvenile female of shotsñí being fired in the area. our deputies responded. upon arrival at the address found two deceased victims. a short time later i was notified again by phone that we had another shooting a few miles away. one deceased and one injured victim there. we began working these scenes. we discovered a couple other scenes with deceased victims. >> that injured person, have you had a chance to talk to them? >> briefly last night. >> and what did -- what information did you get from them? >> not anything i want to release right now. >> sir, -- which homes. p!é the -- >> i'll tell you the tyrone area. >> how were you able to find the other crime scenes?
12:14 pm
somebody lead yo them? >> we started checking family. >> sheriff, the "associated press" is reporting that the shooter found his mother dead on the couch, and then went on this rampage. do you confirm? >> i can't. >> joseph aldrich have a history of -- you know him? >> i didn't know him personally. >> but did law enforcement anybody have any involvement with him before? >> only has aa4ñsk minor criminal history. >> nothing major. >> not that i recall. >> was his mother at home -- >> best of our knowledge he has been with her for quite some time. >> how many weapons were used in the shooting. >> just one. >> what kind? >> handgun. >> have you been able to determine what order this happened? yet? >> no, sir. >> any additional ammunition found with the shooter when you found his body and the handgun? >> i didn't respond to that
12:15 pm
scene. it's my understanding there was. >> how far away is that from tyrone? >> 15 to 20 miles probably. >> the surviving victim -- how is the surviving victim doing? >> as far as i know she is expected to be okay. >> do you know where she was shot? >> no. >> any children? >> no. >> the one who led you to the suspect? >> we obtained part of our information from her. >> the victims that are not identified, are they the same family? as the victims you did identify? they're not, they are? >> they're not. >> are they in a financially themself -- in a family themselves? >> you know, i really don't want to get into that. i released the names of the victims i can right now. we'll get the names of the victims later.
12:16 pm
>> do you have witnesses to any of these other than the girl who ran for help and the woman in the hospital? >> can you repeat? >> do you have any other witnesses? >> no. >> do you know anything about the relationship between the shooter and the people you cannot name rightzoç now? >> a small community ute there everybody knows everybody. but as far as what their personal relationship is i couldn't tell you. >> how large is the community?je$x+8ñ >> probably 50 people.yj lhb- >> -- [inaudible] >> crimes like this, many communities is pretty major. it's not something we're used to seeing. >> is the shooter suicide victim leave a note or an explanation? >> no. chks/ >> -- lead you to a motive? >> we're still working that.
12:17 pm
>> how was the shooter found? >> we had several units patrolling a wide area, and he was actually found in the middle of the highway. >> in the middle of the highway? >> yes. >> which highway? >> ww. >> still inside the vehicle. >> correct. >> what kind of vehicle? >> a gmc pickup. >> we have information that -- [inaudible] >> i didn't respond to the scene. my understanding was that he was still on the highway. >> okay, was he in his own car? >> we're going to pup away from this. we have learned a lot of details in just the last moment. i want to bring mike tobin in again to talk about this. we learned the names we learned a little bit about the relationships among these people. the last name aldrich was mentioned many times, joseph jeffrey aldrich, 36 years old, the man they describe as the shooter. his mam alicep
12:18 pm
dead on the sofa might have been dead inside that original home for up to a full day, mike. then we learned the name's cousins two couples, and then apparently three people who are not related in all of this. so i want to ask you now a little bit about what they're talking about because they didn't really answer the question about what triggered all of this. the theory they're working on. they kind of glazed by that. >> we're left to really just go with the speculation that you get from the county coroner, tom whittaker, that the gunman, joseph aldrich found his mother on the couch and somehow that caused him to go on this violent spree. i think some of the information we just got out of that press conference that really stands out to me, first of all, that the surviving victim is not in&ñ bad shape. the wound is relatively minor in the situation. police have already been able to speak with her. she is expected to be okay. and has been identified as a female and looks like they can get mere information out of her
12:19 pm
in the future. then a little bit of information that initially came to us that wasn't entirely correct, the information he pulled his vehicle over to the side of the road. now we know he was driving a gmc truck and killed himself while the truck was in the middle of the road. so this is the information that's going do come out in dribs and drabs. we're left to hold on to speculation that what caused this happen in this community that everybody knows everybody a town of 50 people. >> well, that's speculation. one of those reporters asked, was there a suicide note found and the response was, no. not at this point anyway. so we'll stay on the story. mike tobin, thank you very much as we kind of work our way through this, get something interesting details along with some names now and as mike points out, and we said it here a couple of times now, anymore small towns like this know each other, so while they're not mentioning the names of the other three who reportedly are not relatives of the others who
12:20 pm
killed, we don't know if they were in fact another family unit. the other thing we don't know yet -- i know it was asked about in the news they know the order of the crime scenes. they showed up last night to the first accident -- the first scene. and the little information you heard mike talking about is the fact that they -- this driver was in the middle of the highway and killed himself, which is very different situation was there a pursuit -- a lot of questions that remain unanswered, but the family name of aldrich, and you have to imagine in a town that small, people will recognize the name when you have that many family members sharing the last name aldrich. we'll continue to bring you the news on this as it happens and we'll move on. >> one of the most anticipated events at the annual conference cpac. governor jeb bush likely white house hopeful, taking questions from sean hannity.
12:21 pm
we'll hear from the governor in his own words on immigration and much more and congress racing to meet a deadline before homeland security department runs out of cash at midnight. you know, just because your bladder is changing, it doesn't mean you have to. with tena, let yourself go. be the one with the crazy laugh. and keep being their favorite playmate. with tena's unique super absorbent micro beads that lock in moisture and odor... tena lets you be you.

12:24 pm
on this final friday of february 2015 the race of the white house is picking up at least on the republican side. trying to rally the base another cpac. the latest to take the stage former florida governor jeb bush and he has not said he is rubbing, only he is thinking about it. conservatives criticize him for not being tough on immigration. >> we1wá)d#js should give them a path to legal status where they work don't receive got of government benefits, don't break theóh( law, they learn english and where
12:25 pm
they make a contribution to our society. that's what we need to be focused on. >> a lot of reaction. >> joining me here let's brick in kaitlin reporter for real clear politics. first news you were there. give me a little of the flavor about what people are saying about the former governor. >> well, jeb bush, this is not friendly territory for him. near a presidential year, everybody is -- a couple of years, presidential cycle. everybody is paying attention. this is the most conservative activists who go to cpac. they're not exactly enthused about someone like jeb bush. they do think that he is soft on immigration and education. but they're going to cpac to look at all the candidates virtually every person running for president is on that stage today and yesterday. so they're doing a little bit of shopping around. jeb bush appears to be the front
12:26 pm
runner if you're thinking in terms of money and getting donors and'tlíf["á kind of thing but conservative activists have a variety of people to choose from, i think. >> i read a tea party activist william temple was urging people to walk out on the former governor as he was the lectern today. jeb bush did this question and answer with our sean hannity at fox news, which is not typical. but he didn't speak, just did the q & a. >> a great format for someone like jeb bush limp acknowledged he is not the greatest giving speeches that way. and so when you give them that q &'oçw3ç a format he is much more comfortable and can talk about policies and he --tpñr3ç i thought what interesting about what he said today about immigration and education, he didn't try to dilute his answers or shift for this kind of audience. so it will be really interesting to watch these guys on the debate stage in just a few months, in august they're
12:27 pm
starting debates. >> i'm just curious just what kind of crowd there is? i mentioned one activist. not representative of an entire group. but is there kind of politics at play like that there? >> oh, sure. the walkout was planned but didn't turn into much. there will a few people who exited. you have a mix of people but these are people who are really involved and really activated. >> for my coverage in the past, one thing i found is wherein they're hard on a candidate like that it can make them better once they come out and say they're running because they know there are certain issues they have to bring up. so tea party activists are doing him a favor, which is go for in the whole party. >> absolutely. i think bush's goal today was to get through it and that was the goal. i think he was successful. and i think he really showed that he can engage with this group, even i they don't really like him that much. >> we have a little bit more of his speech. i want to watch that and get your reaction. >> federal government has no role in the creation of
12:28 pm
curriculum and content. the federal government should have no access to student i.d. or student information. the role of the federal government, if there's any, is to provide7 incentives for more school choice. >> real quickly just your reaction. he hit a lot of different segments. >> he is reverencings common core which is something that conservatives don't like. this is something that jeb bush has championed in the past. you'll hear him talk and he has started to talk about higher standards and not really focused on federal government making these standards but something that comes from the states and localities. >> speaking directly to his critics you. word the word, shopping for a candidate, who is shining right now. >> scott walker was really well-received yesterday. marco rubio, another floridian did well today. so those are a couple i'm keeping my eye on. ted cruz and rapid paul, this is their crowd. they did really well the is in kind of environment. i would look at walker and
12:29 pm
rubio, and even rick perry. >> i'm not hearing you mention governor christie of new jersey. >> i wouldn't say it's been the most successful for him. he did a really tough interview yesterday on the cpac stage and he was basically asked why aren't you could go well in çq%ñwóçó polls-what decent people like you? he did a good job but hasn't been his shining moment so far. >> thank you for coming in. it's a big event, and it continues this afternoon. we'll be covering it. thank you very much. the notorious islamic state executioner, "jihadi john," unmasked and the united states is losing the online fight against the savages. let's take a look at your credit. >>i know i have a 786 fico score, thanks to all the tools and help on experian.com. so how are we going to sweeten this deal? floor mats... clear coats... >>you're getting warmer... leather seats...

12:35 pm
sky news is reporting the image on the left shows him during hi time at the university of westminster in london. on the right, one of the several isis propaganda videos he appeared in showing beheadings of hostages, including americans. fox news confirmed the militant's identity as mohammed emwazi. a man from a middle class family in london. this -- he was on the radar of british intelligence officials five years before he began appearing in the isis videos. jonathan hunt is live with more. intel officials were tracking him for quite a while. >> reporter: mi5, the british security service, won't colonel firm details but it seems likely to us they were looking at him from before he graduated from westminster university in 2009. shortly after that graduation he took a trip to tanzania. now he claimed that trip was to go on a safari. british officials believe that
12:36 pm
he was trying to join up with al-shabaab terrorists in somalia. and while he was refused entry to tanzania he was questioned by mi5 agents. from 2009 to 2010 he twice traveled between london and kuwait and was then prevent by british security from flying back to kuwait a third time but he found a way to give mi5tw;mçç the slip. this got out of britain, details are unclear and in mid-2013 his family was told by british officials they believed he crossed into syria. a year later with the brutal beheading of the american hostage, james foley, emwazi emerged as the evil face ofóñy xz isis. >> i know family are getting answers but strong reaction as they know his identity now. >> and a range of emotions as
12:37 pm
you might imagine. david haines was a british aide worker who was murdered. his daughter says she will only feel relief when emwazi, quote, has a bullet between the eyes. the family of steven sotloff, one of the americans killed, say they would like to see a trial. listen here. >> want to goñh(
12:38 pm
harris, it's worth pointing out that there's still at least one american hostage held in syria. you see him right there. austin tice kidnapped in syria in august 2012. he is the longest held american hostage. worth pointing out as well that we do not a know for sure who is holding him and it should be noted that he has never been mentioned as far as we are aware, in any communication from isis but austin tice still missing in syria. >> we can only imagine what his parents are going through. i know his father mark made comments in recent days. they also want more information. there is word the islamic state is financially vulnerable thanks to falling oil prices and u.s. airstrikes of the coalition. the financial action task force reports more money comes from looting banks, extortion and
12:39 pm
kidnapping for ransom and sells oil at big discounts in syria and iraq, sometimes as low as $20 a barrel. leah good to see you. >> nice to see you. harris taking control of land is one of isis' primary goals and accord ago to the report its primary source of funding comes from the land it controls. take a look. this is the way that isis gets its revenue. the most funds come from the+v3 illegal proceeds. oil revenues banks, extortion schemes. the group confiscates equipment from farmers and then rents it back to them and then there's the ransom payments and the group is receiving money from donors-knock profit organizations and foreign fighters bring material support by funding their own travel or bringing in money them group is raising funds 0 online and of course isis is unique as a terrorist organize because it is into well funded. >> what i'm reading -- i want to ask you about the airstrikes and
12:40 pm
the damage they're causing because yesterday -- i don't know if you caught this -- the director of national intelligence, james clapper, said some of the money may be going to pay fighters to show up people we're killing. >> there's been a lot of reporting but the report make this point the airstrikes have been helping and that's because they're keeping the fighters in their place, not allowing them to continue to seize more territory, and that in order for them to get their funding at levels where it is they need to seats more territory. a pentagon spokesman talked about this today. listen.oiç >> nobody is saying they're out of -- they still have resources at their disposal, but we know that they're feeling the pinch because they aren't able to grab new ground and therefore-aren't able to rob new banks and steal more cash. >> the report also says that coalition airstrikes have diminished the group's ability to distract and refine oil. look at this chart here.
12:41 pm
you can see that after the group seed control of oil fields, selling oil on the black marketj'mwínç was a significant source of revenue. you can see how oil prices have declined and the report says that has decreased its profits. the report also makes recommendations for how to disrupt the group others funding, including better sharing of intelligence. >> they're moving into big cities like mosul and having to do things governments do and that's expensive. lea, thank you very much. the u.s. navy winning somewhat when it comes the islamic state finances but the fbi top course terrorism official say it's, quote, losing the battle to stop extremists from spreading their message online. tim clemente is president of the mission by integrated technology company which makes rescue and counterterrorism products good to seeñcbó?tñ you today tim. i want to start out with this motion of stopping them online. i heard representative ted poe out of texas say that twitter

and other social media should be tasked with blocking the recruitment. is that really where we are? what would make a difference? >> well, that might help. certainly wouldn't hurt. but the fact is the radicalization process can continue 24 hours a day seven days a week completely unabated as we try to whack the moles and knock down web sites and social social media sites and a dozen more can pop up. the solution has to be countering it but we have to do that to get to the minded and vulnerable minds -- excuse me -- out there and i don't know that we can do that just through social media or electronic communication. it has to be done through the muslim communities where these people are coming from. >> one confusing thing i'm reading in çç social media there are couple of different messages out of the administration. you have this fbi expert saying, you know what? we're losing online, and then you're saying how we're losing online as well.
12:43 pm
and then you have the administration saying, we're not really as bad off as people think we are. what's the:v1n z truth? >> i think the truth is more of the former than the latter. we certainly are losing online and we're losing on the battlefield. we may be win something battles and may be decimating some of isis' forces but isis is a symptom. the administration said few years ago that al qaeda was on the run and its senior leadership was gone. that doesn't affect islamic extremist terror attacks around the world them problem is individuals like "jihadi john" are very easily cooperated and brought over to that side. look testify story how he had to go to different efforts to get in the fight. how many times the traveled to get there. so there's a source of radicalized individuals that are willing to do this. no matter what we say about putting leadership on the run or hurting their financial status. they are not being hurt in the recruiting efforts which is the real measure of who is winning

angie's list is revolutionizing local service again. visit angieslist.com today. we're now learning the speaker of the house, john boehner, invited the president of afghanistan to address congress next month. anyonewhile, g.o.p. leaders are still defending the move to invite the israeli prime minister to washington evenebç though the white house officials criticized immigrant. prime minister benjamin netanyahu accepted the republicans invitation to speak at a joint session of congress. everybody is invited but they did so without getting president obama's stamp of approval. and this is just two weeks before israel's election. let's bring in now fox news sunday anchor chris wallace. is this pattern now? how we have an invitation that's been extended to the president of afghanistan. we know if that is with the white house's approval? >> well, what we know is this. that the president of
12:48 pm
afghanistan was on an official trip to the united states and was planning to meet with the president so that fits in with protocol. not like it was done behind the white house them president and white house knew he would be in the country, and then he is invited to speak to congress is business as usual. very different with netanyahu where congress speaker boehner, did it behind the president's back, in fact the secretary of state, john kerry, melt the day before it was announced, for several hours with the israeli ambassador derme renever told him it was in the works. >> what's interesting? i want to peel the veil back on that. some of what i have read dish know that josh earnest talked about this too for the white house, that did the president actually know -- are the playing a game of semantics? i want to know what it is.
12:49 pm
who knew what when? >> the white house i can to toll you because i happened to be kneeholes hey the day it was announced -- they were absolutely stunned that -- they may have known that netanyahu was coming to the country because he was probably going to speak at this aipac, this big pro-israeli jewish organization here in the united states but they did not know anything about being invited to speak to congress or any meeting with members of the government and they were genuinely offended by that because they say the way it usually works is the government -- the u.s. government invites them and then everybody decided how they're going to meet with the leader. so this was a real shock and they felt blind-sided. >> i imagine they would be very offended by what he has to say, too because he is going to tell the world what he has been saying, the deal with iran should not be happening, and that's the bottom line in all of this. that is the issue. trying to not let them get a nuclear weapon. your quick last thoughts. >> well, i'm note1ñó sure it makes much difference, because the
12:50 pm
fact is it's not like a surprise. people know that benjamin netanyahu thinks this is a terrible deal, it's going to jeopardize the security of israel. i suppose it may put a little more pressure on him because he is speaking to a joint session of congress, but it isn't like people don't know where met netanyahu stands on the issue. >> or that the white house doesn't, and i guess that's the point. i can never get enough watching now and now i'm going to tell people where they can. chris wallace "fox news sidr sunday." an exclusive interview with wisconsin governor scott walker who did quite well at cpac. very popular there one of the top potential republican presidential contenders, and kris will talk about the battle over fund think department of home lean security with house majority whip congressman steve scalise, and in ten minutes we're expecting something to happen within the house with regard to funding the department of homeland security. we'll cover that when it happens.

12:55 pm
death penalty. juries don't like killing woman. one thing is very interesting 10% of murders are done by women. however only two percent are on death row. so jurors don't like killing women because just the sensibility. this is a lady -- although she did something horrible, 27 stab wounds? that's bad way over the top. >> they have seen a lot of this defendant. she likes the camera. >> she does. >> she did some interviews. remember her jail house video where she was doing head stands. people have got ton know jodi arias. >> jody is nutty as a snickers. and i don't think they're going to kill her. it's going to be very interesting to watch and they have only been deliberating one+6íl2ç day and these>y.t& of time for the jury to get to the point of deciding someone is going to die for this. >> real quickly, the other option is 25 years, parole or
12:56 pm
life in prince. -- life in prison. is there a difference? >> 25 years, her golden years are gone. >> do you ever mince words. >> i don't. >> we'll watch this together. we appreciate you coming in. paying tribute to mr. spock. and the actor who made his character an american icon. we miss him already. we lost him today. take a look.
