forget getting inside the train. the thrill seekers, kids, they jumped on the back of a subway train in new york city. when passengers told them to jump off, they laughed. thank you for joining us "fox and friends" starts right now. today is wednesday, march 25th. i'm kimberly guilfoyle in for elizabeth hasselbeck. this is a fox news alert. all that's left of the plane that crashed into the alps. what happened during that eight minute plunge to earth and why wasn't there a may day call? we're live on the ground in france. do checks and balances go out the window when hillary clinton is involved? a bomb shell new report this morning about her time as secretary of state. where was the watchdog? >> forgot to hire one. look at this photo, children climbing on the vietnam war's women's memorial as a veteran looks on. the picture going viral this

morning. is it totally innocent or completely disrespectful? it's not an easy answer. we're going to report you're going to decide. we'll read it out loud because mornings are better with friends. >> this is kelly osborn and you're watching "fox and friends." thank you, kelly. welcome to our wednesday. look who's here? >> it's great to be here with you. >> the tragedy crash yesterday in the french alps and we will be going over that today. >> let's get to that fox news alert. happening right now. officials frantically working to uncover answers from yesterday's deadly germanwings plane crash. they have the flight data recorder in hand and are in the process of retrieving its crucial information, including the pilot's final words. >> amy kellogg is here with the latest. good morning to you. >> hi. i'm at the staging center.

we're hearing another report unconfirmed that it may have taken the plane 18 minutes to fall. now, no confirmation. i think still -- it's a slow descent and the issue still is why was there no contact between the pilots and control. that is why this voice data recorder which is in paris right now is critical. the transportation secretary here saying there is one minute they're particularly interested in between 10:30 and 10:31 yesterday morning. they are going to release findings later this afternoon, but in the meantime here in the alps, there is a lot of activity between five and seven helicopters making the trip from this point to the crash site. which is 6,000 feet high. we just spoke to the man who is coordinating the work between those helicopters. he said that it doesn't even look like the scene of a plane crash. in other words, the debris is so pulverized they have not begun yet the process of bringing

bodies and body parts back here. what they need to do he said is to photograph the scene as best they can. he said it's actually not that large. he said 9,000 feet by about 8,000 feet. i'm doing the translation from meters. he said it's the it rain -- it's a crevice so it is not a neat terrain. they didn't work through the night. they were equipped to work with night vision. but because there were no survivors they felt it was best to leave it. they had five military personnel camping out at the site to security it. nobody can get there, but they need to keep an eye on it. this will be the reconstruction that will help investigators figure out what ultimately happened yesterday. >> we thank you very much. there was a news report yesterday that said the number of the germanwings pilots didn't want to fly any of the flights yesterday because they were worried about -- there was a repair on the front wheel

housing on the jet the day before that crashed. they wanted to make sure the mechanics had done things correctly. it had been grounded for an hour the day before. is there a connection? lufthansa says no. >> we were going out yesterday as we were trying to piece together what was happening. all we do is see pieces. here's what we do know about flight 9525 that took off. no signs of a distress call. originally heard there was. now we know there wasn't. they called it a controlled descent. the plane also -- checked the day before, but may have been grounded before. but may have been grounded. they had issues with it. but they felt as though they were solved obviously and put it in the air. >> it had been grounded for an hour the day before to replace the nose wheel landing gear door. 150 people killed including two babies, six crew members. 16 german teens, and two teachers flying home from an

exchange program in spain. also, we understand -- according to the daily news in new york city, two opera stars killed as well. >> hopefully we will get more information. more details on what caused this tragedy. >> they have two black boxes a voice data recorder and then the information thing. >> the black box that is actually orange apparently. >> they got the one with the voice. we will know whether or note was any conversation inside the cockpit during that descent. the problem is according to the investigators however -- they had promised they would tell us later today what's on it. apparently it's banged up pretty good. don't know what they will be able to get out of it. >> they said the pieces are pulverized. you wouldn't know it was a crash site. >> in 2014 330 accident. 227 plane accidents in the skies, 17 dead. what is going on with air

travel? that's news of the numbers now. they don't lie. >> look at 2014 last year. 1,300 people killed in 120 accidents. so far this year, 17 accidents and about 250. >> too many casualties. >> no kidding. six minutes after top of the hour on this busy wednesday. heather joins us and we start in yemen. there is an issue there that could directly affect u.s. security. it is a fox news alert at this hour. yemen is spiraling out of control as the houthi rebels overtake a key air base that was evacuated by our troops. that air base was a key point of counterterrorism operations in that region. the base is a short distance from where yemen's president and its security forces have been holding out. the president has pleaded with the united nations for support against the houthi rebels. happening right now, a hearing is underway in rome to

decide if amanda knox and her exboyfriend are guilty of murder. we haven't heard those names in a while. as you may recall, both were convicted of killing knox's roommate back in 2007 before that decision was thrown out three years ago. if today's hearing doesn't go her way knox who is now living in seattle could be extradited to italy for a 28 year sentence. there is a bomb shell new report this morning. the state department had no permanent watch dog during hrnt's time as secretary of state. the wall street journal saying that president obama never put forward a inspector general of uncovering misconduct. this while hillary clinton headed up the state department. it wasn't until five months after clinton left the position that he nominated a watch dog. will farrell has a star on the walk of fame. he was joined by his wife and

sons and had to sneak in a couple of jokes. >> it goes without saying that i feel so fortunate. yet, i can't accept this award. so just cover it up. cover it up for someone else. >> let's just go away. that honor comes ahead of his new movie, get hard. i'll see you in just a bit. >> thank you. all right as you see ted cruz is all over the place on just about every network show. he's so brilliant to come out first. 15 quality people who will try to be president. who is going to be first and how much time are they going to get in the spotlight? this is already wednesday and we're still talking about ted cruz in one day. this is not as good as a jeb bush number. she pulled $1 million he told megan cell

megyn kelly. >> it turned into a three day story already. people keep talking about it. it was a commanding performance, the speech he gave. he definitely has a base that is committed to him. >> the headline is he's going to sign up for obamacare because his wife is taking a leave of absence so he'll sign up through his employer which means obamacare. speaking of obama people have said you're like our current president a first term senator. senator cruz doesn't like that comparison listen to this. >> there are marked differences between my background and his. we went to harvard. in his time in the senate he was a back benture. in my time of the senate there are a lot of faults i have but nobody would accuse me of being a back benture. >> that is how he's trying to

disseminate from a first term senator who has become president. he said he's a doer. he was part of 123 pieces of legislation. he blamed harry reid he said in the senate nothing got done. >> he blamed it harry reid. if someone else was in power it might have had a different outcome. nobody can say he isn't smart. >> they use a different term for him, it's called crazy. he welcomes it. i don't think he's crazy, even if you don't agree with him. i want you to come to your television and look at this picture. there's a fellow by the man of matthew. he visited the vietnam's vet memorial. as you can see there is a couple of female nurses tending to a wounded warrior. look at that if we drop the banner, you can completely see there are two children climbing on that wounded warrior and the nurses.

because the parents said go on over there and take a picture. >> oh my goodness. there is no cure for this kind of -- >> if you notice what he wrote on reddit, if you notice there is a veteran. when the veteran showed up they looked angry and hurt and they were quiet. he started this debate, whether or not it was okay for the parents to ask the kids to climb on that. or if it was completely disrespectful. the comments have been pouring in. >> this whole thing went online in 1993. as no one knows better than you, steve, because you lived there. there is so many monuments that matter so much. one thing you want to do is have kids early on go come over here, don't make a lesson in social studies class and have fun. let me tell you how important this s. you want as a parent get them involved and let hem know. it was the kids that decided to make it like a jungle gym. >> i think the -- according to

him go ahead and climb on that. there is two ways to think about this. artwork, some of it is meant to be hands on where you can climb on. this is something where there is a wounded warrior right there. and some of the supporters had said you know, if they really didn't want anybody climbing on it they should have it roped off. at the same time the parents i think, should show a little respect. >> that's a teachable moment. >> stand next to it don't climb on it. >> that's what the parents should be saying let me tell you about history of this country, sacrifice how men and women came together to serve the country. you don't step all over it. >> i don't know the exact circumstances, on the surface if they're meant to be respectful and the kids take it too far. i don't have a problem with it. if you just get kids interested and make an impactful and indelible moment they will remember it. tell me what you think. do you think that's disrespectful, the kids should stay away or get off of it or

do you see kids are being kids? >> your e-mails, keep them coming in. coming up take a look at this insane video. tourists get out a bus seconds before it gets swallowed up. bobby jindal is here on the heels of ted cruz's announcement. is he going to throw his hat into the ring? he doesn't have a hat. ♪ and sometimes i struggle to sleep at night, and stay awake during the day. this is called non-24. learn more by calling 844-824-2424. or visit your2nfo.com. when laquinta.com sends craig wilson a ready for you alert the second his room is ready, ya know what he becomes? great proposal! let'talk more over golf. great. how about over tennis? even better. a game changer! the ready for you alert, only at laquinta.com.

it is on the race for 2016 this week. officially with senator ted cruz entering early. how will it impact those considering a presidential run like louisiana governor bobby jindal. >> he's here. >> i had no idea what you were getting at. he saw ted cruz's announcement on monday. are you kicking yourself? >> here's what i've been doing that i don't think any other potential candidate has been doing. a lot of focusing on polling consulting. i created a think tank called america next to think about specifically what should the next president do. we put out detailed policiesment i'm the only one that's put out a plan how do you repeal obamacare.

a plan for education school choice, a plan for foreign policy. how do we invest in the pentagon, the military how do we repair the foreign policy mistakes of this president. we need a president who wants to do something not just be something. we put a lot of threat into what the next president should do. >> you've got a tremendous executive experience a lot of popular appeal. people know what they're getting in and out, in you. you are able to distinguish yourself between candidates because you have a level of experience. what would you say makes the case for you? >> thank you. i do tend to think -- i've saying this for a while should be a conservative somebody who has a proven track record. in louisiana we have cut our budget 26%, over 30,000 fewer state employees. we proposed a balanced budget without raising taxes. the left thinks you should raise taxes.

i think this election is about the future. people want to hear a candidate that's going to say i'm going to take on the threat of radical islamic terrorism. we need a candidate that says we're going to cut the size of government, balance the budget. we need a candidate that is going to say to get rid of obamacare. we don't need to keep any of t. we need a candidate that says here is how we restore the american dream for our children. in energy it's not exploration jobs, good paying manufacturing jobs. we need a conservative that will push back when the democrats come at them. i think we can win this election. we need to win this election not just for the republican party, for the sake of our country. we can't afford four more years. we need a major course correction. >> you have to be part of the main stream media, talk to them. as ted cruz said two nights ago, he said republicans for the most

part are depicted by main stream media as crazy stupid or evil. >> when you speak the truth the media pushes back against you. when i talk about the threat of islamic terrorism, they said i was racist. when i did a christian event for people to come together and pray for our country. the media kritzcriticized me. as conservatives we need to stand our ground push back. american people want to see us fight for our principals. >> why are you better than ted cruz? >> look, the voters get to decide. i know d.c. insiders would like us to clear the field to have no debates. that's nonsense. voters get to decide that. i would like to see our nominee be a governor. we don't get to decide, the potential candidates don't get to decide. the voters get to decide who our nominee is. i think it's good for the nominee, party and country.

>> thank you, governor, what a pleasure. >> have a safe trip home. coming up forget what you heard arficial sweeteners not as bad as you think. dr. marc siegel said that. people ship all kinds of things. but what if that thing is a few hundred thousand doses of flu vaccine. that need to be kept at 41 degrees. while being shipped to a country where it's 90 degrees. in the shade. sound hard? yeah. does that mean people in laos shouldn't get their vaccine? we didn't think so. from figuring it out to getting it done, we're here to help.

we've got a quick look at some headlines on this wednesday morning. it's the rescue edition. strong winds pushing a huge tree on top of a car while it was running. the video shows rescue workers in los angeles cutting the roof off the car and pulling the driver out. it's not clear how badly the person was hurt. and this is one ride you don't want to be caught on. a group of thrill seekers stuck on the incredible hulk in orlando. a technical glitch stopped the

ride and stranded riders for 40 minutes. thankfully everybody got off safely. and now they've got a story to tell. kimberly over to you. thanks, steve. if you've been told you should stay away from artificial sweeteners like sweet and low, but new research says they may not be that bay bad and may even treat cancer. i did not misread that. here to explain is fox news medical expert marc siegel. this could be good for you and treat and combat against some cancers? tell me more. >> in the 1970's there was a scare out that saccharin could cause cancer. it was never proven. it was put back on the market. now to show you how science works we found that it has activity against a protein that is found in many cancers that

promotes its growth. it keeps the environment in the cell of cancer very acidic. and then the cancer grows more. this is breast, it's brain, kidney and liver and -- >> lung. >> lung. the chemists are finding if you take the saccharin and put it against this protein it shrinks. we're talking test tubes so far. it is not the sweet and low itself. they're taking the saccharin, and australian researchers got it so they made a compound that was a thousand times more strong than saccharin alone. this is how we're fighting cancer these days. taking chemical properties with unexpected results and fighting cancer. >> this is pretty promising. it's been in a limited research capacity so far in test tubes. the next practical application

would be mice and then humans. >> we're start ing with mice right now. this is something that you thought was a bad guy ends up being a good guy. we shouldn't dismiss things. it definitely shouldn't mean you should take sweet and low thinking it's going to fight cancer. sweet and low has a problem with it, it promotes hunger. it doesn't have calories. when you have the saccharin you get hungrier. it can lead to heart disease obesity, depression, but the chemical saccharin, is now being found to be very powerful against all of these cancers. to answer your question i'd say it's about five years out before we will see human trials on this. i think this is very promising. because this protein is actually causing big time cancer growth in all those different cancers. that will be the future of cancer treatment, one sized fits all. something that will work against different kinds of cancer when it starts to spread.

>> all i can think about the lives that can be saved. >> it's the start of something important. >> always a pleasure, good to see you. hold on to those pink packets. a desperate search is on. this woman kidnapped from her own home and being held for ransom. where police are focusing their search. she led the irs as it targeted conservatives and even got bonuses along the way. now we know that lowis lerner can still access your tax return ♪ we ride to leave ♪ me and my gang jump on that train ♪

no. peter doocy joins us live from washington with the latest. good morning. >> good morning. this new report accuses the man who is now number two at dauchhs of playing favorites that let's foreign investors get green cards for pumping money into companies. who was that man accused of favoring during his time? one of the clinton's best friend, hillary clinton's brother. when he was aligned with a green card company, about 200 visa applications weren't going through fast enough for him. he teamed up with a company that specialized in helping speed up those kind of things called gulf coast funds management that was run by hillary clinton's brother. then "the washington post"

good morning baerkeverybody. the fbi joining the desperate search for a northern california woman who is believed to be kidnapped for ransom. police say the 30-year-old was forcibly taken from her boyfriend's home monday morning in vallejo which is new sacramento. the search is focusing on a waterfront area. dogs are using sonar and scouring the waters as her father prays for her safety. >> here i am. it's like a bad dream and i can't wake up. i'm terrified about what's going on with my daughter. i'm in fear as we're standing here of what could be happening to her. >> now, her boyfriend witnessed the kidnapping but did not call police for several hours. police say he is not a suspect. millionaire murder suspect robert durst may be linked to another disappearance a college freshman from more than 40 years

ago. lynn schultz was last seen in 1971 at a health food shore that was owned by durst. she vanished the next day after she visited that store. her body has never been found. there is no physical evidence linking the two. durst is being held without bond in louisiana as he awaits to extradition to california to face murder charges. lois lerner may still be keeping an eye on your tax returns. this is quite a story. there is now report that shows that former employees of the irs still have access to the irs computer systems long after they have left the agency. that report finding significant problems with online security, including out dated software and easy to crack passwords. the fear is identity thieves could get their hands on this important information. absolutely incredible video of an insanely close call in brazil. dozens of paernlts scramble off

we're doing okay. what is a blitz? you say we all face them. >> football blitz is when they're bringing more than four defensive lineman. >> a cheerleader? >> not a cheerleader. in that situation, it's not just danger, it's also opportunity. you have man to man coverage, no one playing the deep part of the field. some of the greatest plays in football comes during the blitz. >> you know what a blitz is by nature? more people coming than you have blockers. you have to adjust. sometimes life overwhelmed you and floods you. you have come up with strategies to find blockers and survive. >> you have to adapt and change really quickly. >> stop for a second. the long term view, what do you mean? >> you might get blitzed early

in the game and could. >> could have been in 08 during the financial crisis. >> there is a long opportunity in this game. we will come back later in life, later in the game and succeed. we will learn something from that situation. >> what did you learn from your father, a great man? >> dad and mom went through quite a blitz. he bounced around the nfl for a few years, gets cut in 59 and plays for two years. he braked his finger and they sell him from the charmers to bills. for 100 bucks. he is thinking this is terrible. i don't want to go. it's a blitz. his wife, my mom and his mom said there is always a purpose and plan. god has good things in store. go out there to buffalo. that turned into the greatest opportunity to lead that team to championships and go to congress. >> you say be willing to change. when you are blitzed and you have got to be willing to change. >> it's mostly are you willing not just do different things,

are you willing to become different, more humble, more of a investor than a consumer of other people. to take whatever you have gone through and use it to emfus the with other. >> this is an emphas on the core family unit. >> if you're going to get through the blitz you have to do things that serve others. that helps you recover. chris kyle from the american sniper movie. he was having ptsd until he learned how to help others. he started to heal. in our life, we need to take our lives off of our own situation, with who else is hurting, how can i help, how can i serve. if that comes down to a marriage or family, be the fers one to apologize. >> that is hard for a lot of people. especially when you know you're right. >> are you right? >> that happens here with us. >> our last point, i know you're

older in life. your dad passed away in 2009. that's a blitz at any age. how do you deal with that? >> i had a premonition that he was going to die. i started thinking he has been ill some. maybe he's going to die someday. i never thought of him they way because he's larger in life. i went into that thought and i started to mourn and cry. two weeks and cry i found out he had cancerment that gave us four months for a departure. we were blessed with four months. i had amazing trips to my mom and dad's home. i wrote a three page letter of everything i wanted to thank him. i read it to him and mom. we were so blessed to say those things. we had intimate wonderful time. he said i don't want my legacy to see politics. i don't want it to be football. it's my family and how much god

it's called operation chokepoint. it's a controversial federal program meant to stamp out fraud. critics say it targets legal businesses. that the obama administration simply doesn't like by pressuring banks to cut off their accounts. some of the targets include gun stores. >> i was notified by the bank on

november 13th that they had to close my account due to being a gun dealer. and you know, it's a sad day in america when this can happen to you. >> no kidding. did the department of justice go too far by targeting legitimate business owners? that was the focus of a hearing on capitol hill yesterday led by our next guess, joining us is congressman sean duffy. >> good morning. >> good morning. >> these are legal businesses yet they've been targeted by the government, right? >> yes. listen in your intro you said this was a focus on fraud or so they claim. not at all. this is the, the administration, they don't like guns. this is a clever way to get around the second amendment. and at the fdic and other bank regulators tell banks you can't do business with gun dealers, pay day lenders or smoke shops. they have a target list, whether

you're a fraudulent business or a legal business they are putting you out of business because the administration says we don't like you. >> some of the businesses targeted by this operation, firework sales tobacco sales, coin dealers, debt collectors, pawnbrokers, pharmaceutical sales. let me ask you this, we know famously that lois lerner and the irs targeted political opponents of the administration. people they didn't like. politically. so these are legal businesses, the administration doesn't like and so they're able to target them and freeze their assets through this program? >> lois lerner said i'm not targeting conservatives no. no. no. the fdic is also saying we're not targeting gun store owners. in our hearing we learned it's rampant throughout the fdic. high level individuals are targeting all these legal businesses. this is antiamerican.

and we in congress are going to push back on this. one point i want to make is when the fdic or bank regulators put pressure on the banks stop doing business. you ask why don't bank come forward? the banks can't tell you. they're prohibited from telling you what the fdic is telling them. the only way this sh going to come out on how the obama administration is getting around the second amendment and taking out gun dealers and ammunition manufactures is if us in congress expose it and you on fox tell the story. >> that's what we're doing today. congressman, do you have any evidence that somebody at the white house said okay, i got a brilliant idea, let's use the fdic to target companies we don't like. >> the fdic is an independent agency. we were doing meetings last week with some of the defenders. before those meetings the white

house called them to say you don't have to go meet with the oversight kmaent if you don't want. if you want an attorney to come with you, we will have them come. i don't know why the white house would be interested unless they were involved. i don't know yet but we're sure the evidence will lead us there all this stuff makes too much sense. this is the weaponization of all these agencies to advance a liberty liberal agenda and it's coming from the white house. >> keep on them and keep us posts on what happens. congressman sean duffy. thank you for joining us from washington. it was hundreds of thousand dollars of dollars meant to go to superstorm sandy victims instead it went to a weed business. how did that happen? we'll explain what we know. if high schools want to use names like indians or warriors,

good morningment high school athletes who want to call themselves indians warriors braves chiefs may soon be required to ask local american indians for permission to use those names. $25,000 a month would be a fine to use those names. joining us an unlikely sea -- >> so far you are offended by the rules that are supposed to protect your feelings. >> yeah. thanks for having me on. and i'm offended by all it does is it highlights the divide between native american and the main stream. we have a bill that's talking just about native americans. that's discrimination. >> for example if you're -- my

high school was named the chiefs. the cleveland indians major league baseball. we know the pressure on the washington redskins. they weren't named in an attempt to do anything but honor. people are looking at it as an insult. your heritage goes back to the sioux tribe and you're not offended how unique are you? >> i think i'm very unique. i sat in the forums yesterday. there were lots of indians who testified for the bill. if we're going to set certain phrases aside from being as used as unity symbols we're suppressing these symbols that could bring us together. we're further alienating one group of people. >> how important is your heritage to you? a lot of people say this is a young lady who doesn't have a sense of what it means to be half american indian or have that in your background. how important is it to you? >> you know, i grew up outside

of the pine ridge reservation. i am very close to the native american side of my family. i'm half norwegian and swedish and native american. what it does for me, it allows me to embrace my culture and know i am part of colorado's history as well as part of the nation's history. that's what matters. making sure that we all have voices here. >> look at this picture of you, your grandfather, of course. that is a rich history. your grandfather very much a part of that. obviously, you're not running from your background. it meant a lot to you. you're standing up for the big push in colorado to get rid of all american indian names if they don't go past a council. thanks for sharing your story. >> thanks for having me. look at this picture. children climbing on a vietnam memorial for women.

brian was oh. >> now i'm the bad guy. happy to have you here. you seem like a nice person. of course you were -- last night you were on "the five" and o'reilly. >> correct. >> meanwhile, top story this morning recollect what you want to know about what happened to the airplane. crews continue to try to unlock the midair mystery of the deadly germanwings plane crash that killed 150 people yesterday about this time. >> and searches have recovered the cockpit voice recorders and are the process of retrieving crucial information including the pilot's final words. >> amy kellogg is trying to put it together for us. she is live from the staging area in the alps where she just heard the rescue choppers fly by. you might hear them again throughout this update. hey amy. >> hey, brian. it all still remains a mystery. officials from lufthansa, which is the parent company of germanwings and various

officials from france and else where have said at this point they don't think they could have anything to do with terrorism. why it happened though, still very troubling. because these airbus 320s typically don't just fall from the sky. i mean the troubled tiemdsmes are takeoff and landing. the search is on for the second black box. the first is being analyzed in paris. we have spoken to the man who is coordinating the helicopter movements here on the ground on the staging area. in the southern alps in france. he said there had been talk of trying to blast some sort of road through to the crash site or come up with some kind of vehicle that could actually drive there. that's been ruled out. it's going to be a pain staking process of ferrying special mountain police -- to the site. we just saw a massive military busful of men. we're not sure if they are the ten corners from marseille who

were said to be on their way. or another forensics team. there was snow, rain overnight. that makes the conditions on the mountain a lot more difficult as well. brian steve, kimberly. >> at least we'll know we'll get answers. >> what caused the plane to go down? some have suggests a loss of cabin pressure. other experts said perhaps it's the angle of attack censors, which in the past on these airbuss have frozen up on the outside. if the plane thinks it's about to stall it will cause the nose to pitch down. as we saw yesterday on the radar it shows anywhere from eight and 18 minutes descent at a constant 400 knots. that could suggest why it continued on the path. it was just confused. >> things like this shouldn't be happening. why does there appear to be complications with these planes? even the pilots as you mentioned

earlier this morning, they were concerned about getting on the airbuss later in the day. >> it was a 24-year-old plane. they are worried this might be emdemic in the model it crashed at 10:30. it started descending rapidly. it crashed within eight minutes. why wasn't that descent altered? why weren't they sending out the distress call. were they so focused in getting the plane right they didn't communicate. third is communicate, third is try to rectify or did something else happen? >> if you were watching our coverage call yesterday apparently there was a may day call where the pilot said emergency emergency. the pilots didn't say that but air traffic control did because they realized the plane is going too fast. >> something went catastrophically wrong. if there is a problem that is emdemic with the a 320 airbus,

you can bet there will be lawsuits. especially because they retire a lot of those older airbuss to some of the, you know, less expensive low cost airlines. they take them out of commission from some of the bigger fleets. >> just because a plane is cheap doesn't mean they're skimping op safety requirements. it means you don't get food, have to pay for your luggage. take a look at these stats. the bureau of aircraft accidents archives put this out. look at the trend in terms of accident. in 2012, 155 accidents. if you're listening on radio. 2013, 453 deaths 137 accidents. in 2014, look at this number. 1,330 death and 120 accidents. 2015 we're just finishing up march and there has been 17 accidents and 247 deaths. one point out there, we still don't know where it is. >> that's why last year's total was so gigantic. >> these are real questions that

need to be answer. we will bring you the latest. >> heather's job is to bring us the very latest. you have a fox news alert. we're keeping an eye on yemen this morning. a country that counterterrorism officials are concerned about as it continues to spiral out of control. houthi rebels overtake a key air base that was evacuated by our troops last week. that air base was a key part of counterterrorism operations in the region. one of the questions is what kind of equipment might they have obtained once they seized this base. those rebels also announcing a $100,000 bounty on the yemeni president's head. associated press reporting that they have fled to an undisclosed location but aides are denying those reports. another fox news alert to bring you. happening in rome, a hearing to decide if amanda knox and her boyfriend are guilty of murder. both were convicted of killing knox's roommate back in 2007.

before that decision was thrown out three years ago. today's hearing if it doesn't go away knox who is now living back in seattle, could be extradited. is this coincidence or something more? the state department had no permanent watch dog during hillary clinton's time as secretary of state. the wall street journal said obama did not put form a nominee for inspector general. that's the person who uncovered misconduct. it wasn't until five monthsing after clinton left that position that the president finally nominated a watch dog. rumors blossoming this morning. we're talking about washington, d.c. after the white house florist was mysteriously dismissed from her job. she was the chief white house florist for the past six years. she abruptly left her position last month. reportedly escorted from the white house. the white house not commenting

on her departure. just issuing a brief statement wishing her well. some reports claim that her french style -- that's considered an unfussy style clashed with michelle obama's modern likes. those are your headlines. a lot of people watching this and talking about this. >> the president has got to make changes. things are not working. >> the priorities is perfect. start with the flowers and we'll work on the other problems like no job. >> the butler is on probation. >> it's all french furniture in the white house why wouldn't french flowers work? >> they're supposed to communicate to one another. the floral arrangement and de decor. >> you don't know that? >> roses? >> absolutely. >> just like the -- >> you live in a fancy neighborhood. >> i get roses 711 they never die. >> about an hour ago we showed

this picture. a guy was at the vietnam vets memorial, the women's memorial. they took a picture where apparently some parents told the kids, hey, climb up on that monument for some pictures. and said that just then some veterans showed up and snapped a picture. they looked angry and hurt and they got very quiet. he asked the question on reddit whether or not it was disrespectful for the parents to allow the kids to climb on this memorial. or is this just one of those things because they're -- were no ropes the kids just climb on things naturally. >> it's a woman's vietnam memorial. it was put out in 1993. you love the fact that with all the options people went out of their way to go to this. should kids be climbing on it? janice says on facebook disgraceful. those memorials are not monkey bars to be played on. >> it's not a grave, it's an only of public beauty. give the kids a break. >> what about the parents?

meanwhile, patty on instagram. it is disrespectful but innocently so on the part of the kids. parents should teach them to honor such memorials and respect public structures. keep in mind it's a little different than, you know, abe lincoln and the lincoln memorial. this is a wounded warrior who is as you can see screen left being tended to by two female nurses right there. you know it doesn't behoove climbing up and posing for a picture. i feel. >> there is plenty of places for kids to play in the park. you should sit back, absorb it, take it in and get a lesson in history. >> i would love to get in contact with parents. maybe they gave a long talk and they turned around for a second -- how much this means, maybe you're talking about a family of a vietnam veteran. i would love to hear the rest of

the story. >> if you're out there, call us. we'd love to do a interview. >> matthew munson is the one who took the picture. 11 minutes after the hour. >> thank you father time. >> it's 7 7:11. >> there are a lot of people shaving almost naked, i give the time. >> the mainstream media wasting no time attacking ted cruz. is this what the gop can expect as we head into 2016? congresswoman love joins us next. >> i'm very good. >> they asked for hundreds of thousand dollars of dollars to help the victims of hurricane sandy and we gave it to them. they spent it on pot? >> take that, 711. >> in my neighborhood. ♪

are saying things he is a guy that is uncompromising conservative. that he is a person who has essentially radical ideas that will take this country backwards, how do you see it? >> i think the important thing for us to focus is not on the who, but the what. i want a president who is going to focus on a positive agenda that's going to unite the party and unite americans. i think what we need to do as americans is make sure that anyone who is going to divide us based on race income level, social status. who is not going to talk about the issues, fiskal issues our country faces we should reject that person. we need to look for someone who is going to unite us on these issues. >> there is important points here with his candidacy athose of other minority candidates. here we have tremendous diversity, tremendous opportunity in this country. you have people stepping out of stars in the gop like yourself, a woman an african-american

change they think ought to change. >> things have to change quickly. what hard core changes do you see? >> first of all i see a growing number of individuals within islam who are calling for that change. who are saying let's not blame the jews stop blaming america. i have an appendix of individuals who are saying let's change. some are doing it at the risk of their own lives. i'm saying we in the west, we need to help those who want to change. and ally with them. >> there are three groups of individuals within the muslim face. there are reformers like yourself and there are others who want strict adherence to the quran and follow that and live the life like they see it. >> the koran says in this verse go and kill the infidels.

go and beat up the woman and put them indoors and they do it. i think it's large mass the ones i call the mecca muslims we pull them towards the reformers. >> we see the egyptian president, one or two prime ministers here and a person there. do we see any formal base, the way isis grew and became this cancer, why don't we see a vaccine that will grow the same way with the same passion? >> last week on wednesday there was an attack on the museum in tunisia. what we're seeing in tunisia, i find that, you know the one country that still is sort of a beacon of home. there is a secular movement, government, constituency that is fighting the radicals. the islamists. i see the same group of secular people in egypt. i see them in saudi arabia of all places. i think a large number of

iranian population wants change. it's a matter of what needs to change and how do we organize. >> it can't be just yes, we have to fight them militarily. it's always a reformation of ideas. you have been fearless in your battle,iority fight, courageous to do so. especially on behalf of women's right. what i find shocking is other women that have a position and influence in the media and politics. why aren't the feminists coming forward to support you in your battle to save women's lives in their horrible atrocities that are happening to them. >> i think they're accused of being accuse fdd of being white and imposing their white values on women. the women who marched in afghanistan when this 27-year-old girl was killed. she was lynched by a mob of men. and what gives me hope is that afghany women activists went out. >> they carried the casket, which is against tradition. you can see the same impulse.

ideas. in this book i try to explain, it's time to change. what do you replace those ideas with. i believe in the ideas of freedom. i believe in the ideas of economic prosperity and life before death. life now instead of life after death. >> i got to ask you i'm asking you with jon stewart on the daily show, he's trying to say muslims and christians the jews are the same thing. this is part of maturing as a religion. what is your reaction to that, trying to equate christianity, judaism to what we're seeing now with radical islam? >> the atrocities and excesses violence in the christian world was about 500 years ago. when it comes to islam it's today. turn on the television and you'll see shias killing sunnis and sunnis killing shias in yemen syria iraq. every day in europe they foil up plots of someone trying to cause harm in the smamthe name of

good morning. today is wednesday march 25th. i'm kimberly guilfoyle in for elizabeth hasselbeck. a fox news alert. just confirmed two americans were on board the plane that crashed into the french alps. what happened during their descent to death, and why the pilots never called for help. we're live on the ground with the very latest. >> and judgment day, the fate of amanda knox hangs in the balance again. what's happening inside that italian court right now that could send her back to prison. >> all right. the media wasting no time attacking ted cruz is this a preview of what's ahead in 2016? a little bit later bill o'reilly will wake up early and inform you about where we're heading in the 2016 season. by the way, mornings are better with friends. >> this is danica patrick and you're watching "fox and friends." the best show to get your motor running. wow danica patrick might be our most frequent guest.

>> we have kimberly guilfoyle with us. i pointed out bill o'reilly would be with us. he's stuck in traffic. the very latest on the germanwings accident. >> we now know there were two americans among the 150 people killed in the tragedy plane crash yesterday. >> unbelievable story. moments ago, crews cracked open the cockpit voice recorder and are working to retrieve crucial information, including the pilot's final words. >> i believe they got both black boxes. amy kellogg is live from the staging area in the alps. hey, amy. >> i think the reason that we're learning about the nationalalities in kind of a slow drip form is that germanwings wants to notify families before it releases nationalities.

some travellers do have dual nationalities. so that is possibly the reason for the delay in us learning about americans and brits and the different people who have been victims of this horrible tragedy. it's starting to cloud over here. i don't know what that is going to do to the recovery efforts. we are expecting two things to happen fairly shortly. in about an hour or so the german chancellor, angela merkel, the spanish prime minister and the french president hollande will come to this town and they are going to meet with some the family members of the victims here in a make shift chapel which was put together in a local gymnasium. in the meantime, we also hear that the voice recorder the first black box that was found did have some damage. it had some problems. it hasn't been clear to what extent those problems would be a massive impediment to finding

out what the pilot's final words had been. now we understand there will be information from that finding of the black box in a few hours' time 4:00 local. apparently, something has been gleaned from that. if voices were in fact, picked up by the voice recorder, as should be the case, then this investigation is likely to proceed quite quickly. but the work on the mountains is complicated. we don't expect bodies or body parts to be recovered today. right now, they're trying to photograph the scene in order to have an idea for reconstructive purposes of what happened. they need to map out with the bodies are. that is a grim work there doing that. back to you. >> you've got that right. amy kellogg in the french alps. we thank you very much. are they ruling out any type of terror? >> they have. >> when they see in pulverized and the biggest piece is the size of a small car. you know the side of that jet, anyone who has been on a plane

that big. you wonder what happened to force that quick descent. why were they on this path, why were they unable tool communicate. would any pilot choose to end it all there? >> experts say if the plane's angle of attack sensor was iced up. apparently that has happened on this particular jet. what happens is the plane thinks it's about to stall and it causes the nose to pitch down. which would explain that anywhere 8 to 18 minutes descent going into the mountains. that would make sense. it could be the loss of cabin pressure. with the voice recorders, they would know whether or not anybody was talk. >> they would be responding in real time to what they're seeing and viewing on the cockpit, on the instrument panel and how they were trying to trouble shoot that and get altitude underneath the plane to get it back up. in that particular plane that model, there is complications in terms of the computer -- >> it's hard to turn off -- >> the automation system.

>> it's much easier on boeing. 67 were german 45 were spanish. we just now found out that two more are american. look at how many deaths there have been in the skies. they're safer -- we hear it's safer than driving. these numbers take you take a pause. >> the key number there, is from last year. that 1,330 is such a gigantic number. malaysia air had a terrible year. they lost a plane and the other was shot down by russia. >> 120 accidents. this year we have 247 deaths and 17 accidents. >> this early into the year. >> we're not in april. 2013 453 137 accidents. >> the thing about yesterday's flight is the most dangerous time when you're in flight is takeoff and landing. the safest time is when you're at cruising altitude. that's where they were. they hit their cruising altitude for less than a minute.

then it started going down. what happened? >> what happened? >> in that minute. >> 31,000 feet. meanwhile on our altitude with our boat feet on the ground is heather nauert. good morning. hope you're off to a great day. i'm going to start with a fox news alert. happening right now inside a courtroom in rome is a hearing to decide whether amanda knox and her exboyfriend are guilty of murder. you may recall both were convicted of killing knox's roommate in 2007 before that decision was thrown out three years ago. if today's hearing doesn't go her way knox who is living back home in seattle could potentially be extradited to italy for a 28 year prison sentence. we'll watch that story throughout the day. some extreme weather to bring you. overnight strong winds pushing a huge tree on top of a car while it was moving in los angeles. firefighters using the jaws of life to cut the driver out of that car. in the meantime, that wind

causing a big blackout in beverly hills. take a look at this picture. you can see that huge blockout spot. missouri is dealing with several funnel clouds and also hail. what an amazing picture right there. so far, no damage or injuries reported. and huge business news this morning. heinz and kraft foods are becoming the world's fifth largest food and beverage company. the deal was approved by boards of both companiesism ref new for kraft heinz is expected to be $28 billion every year. hines shareholders will get 51%. those are your headlines. buy them from the same company, our ketchup and macaroni and cheese. >> the last time i felt like a true chef, i had a small silver pot. i waited for the water to boil and made the decision to put the powdered cheese in. and then i made the decision not

to put milk in. >> this is all wrong. >> you have to drain the noodles. >> i didn't. then i started using a colander. i used the top and get tired of it. i start today burn my hands. i wanted a colander because i didn't want to wash it. >> this is lazy man's mac and cheese. >> wash it with the water you were supposed to drain -- >> it would have helped. >> that doesn't sound good. >> so ted cruz, as you know two days ago announce he's running for president. mainstream media on the attack depicting him as crazy and evil and republican. meanwhile, the reason i mention that is because there's a professor in topeka, he teaches political science. and what he's doing is he's teaching his students that ted cruz and the racist republican party are trying to resurrect discrimination in the united states of america. >> right. here's the quote.

various violate but extremist right political movements which are gaining mainstream appeal, especially cruz and paul increase numbers in the polls and house and senate. >> there's a reason why there are increased numbers in the house and senate. they won the election because they're reflective of the attitudes of people and might not be extremist. >> elizabeth warren, she's an extreempest on the left. >> why can't you respect somebody's belief? why can't you enhance the debate by listening to both sides. >> this particular student that talked to campus reform. said every time they walk into the class they feel like the teacher is berating them because he's a conservative. >> okay. it's just indoctrination that

mostly occurs on the other side. >> hopefully you'll get your a and keep your believes to yourself. meanwhile let's talk about this. if you go to washington there is plenty of memorials about wars that were foughtic including a tribute to female vietnam vets. it was finished in 1993. there you go. these nurses treating a soldier clearly wounded in battle. so one family decides to tell their kids hey go over there and take a picture. they start using it as a jungle gym. you see the reaction in this photo. matthew munson took this picture and allowed us to use it. it has everybody weighing in. >> because the veterans looked over they looked angry, hurt, they got quiet. we asked you whether or not you thought it was appropriate tr the kids to be, you know, climbing all over it like a jungle gym or is it okay. susan says the children don't understand the reverence or

meaning of the statue. where are the parents? >> the parents told the kids climb on it. >> we've been getting thousands of your e-mails pouring in on this. nancy on facebook saying it's disrespectful. that is a memorial not a jungm gym. there is a difference. >> you could say -- i've seen this before with my children. you tell them to go over and stand they're wrestling and fighting if you turn from your back. that's why i would love to hear from the family. i blame the parents. my twins are six. they would be saluting the memorial, not climbing all over it. >> absolutely. it's a teachable moment. the parents, you would think the parents would say take a look at this monument right here. you can see the fallen soldier being tended to by the nurses. this is -- you have -- you know, let's be respectful of what that depicts. >> the historical significance what this means to us as americans for the liberty and freedom we enjoy. there is plenty of play grounds

for kids. kids like grass to run around on. >> there are no ropes around it. it's not like hands off. i'd like to hear from the person who actually did the sculptsing of that. >> was that built so people could climb on it? are they offended? >> they didn't mean for kids to be climbing on it. the jungle gym thing in the park, they have the padded -- >> if you're the family, i want you to come forward and give you a chance to respond. because not every time does your kid do something in public that you're proud of. if you turned your back for a second and saw it. >> we should point out the park service is within 50 feet all the time of that particular statue. and they didn't shoo them off. maybe that happens all the time. don't know. 12 minutes after the hour. two americans on board that plane that crashed into the french what's to blame and what can we

a fox news alert. we have just learned two americans were on board that germanwings plane that smashed into the french alps. it killed 150 people. right now you're looking at brand new pictures of that plane's cockpit voice recorder into "fox and friends" newsroom. as you know the black box is actually orange. as for the search of answers resumes today. many are questioning the question of that airbus and wondering if a budget airline sacrificed safety like this. here to share his opportunity is a commercial airliner. when you have a budget airline, do they skimp on safety? >> no. there is areas where they can cut costs.

they're smart enough to know maintenance is not one of them. could there have been a mapt maintenance problem that caused the crash? i wouldn't go there. >> it's 24 years old. we know yesterday when the plane first went down some of the pilots reportedly refused to get in the plane until they found out and got answers immediately from the airline itself. how do you gauge that reaction? >> you know, i mean, first thing they teach in airplane pilot school is you're the first one on the scene of the accident. you want to know what's going on. you have questions in the back of your mind. the other side of the coin is there's 6,000 of these airplanes flying around. one takes off roughly every two seconds. al the airplane has been in service for almost 25 or 26 years without a rash of accidents that we've seen in some airliners going way back. >> from what we know about the check list for payletsilot pilot like

yourself. how important is it to communicate with the tower? >> when something goes wrong the last thing you want to do is talk to people. you want to solve the problem. some of the major airlines in our country if they had had a catastrophic pressurization loss for instance the first thing that happens regardless of who was flying the captain takes over. they put their masks on. once they put their masks on they're like fighter jet pilots at that point. they can breathe and see what's going on. then they get to fixing the problem. the fact we heard from this airplane, tells me two things, the crew was incapacitated or they were so busy deal ing with a catastrophic problem that the last thing they felt like doing was talking to someone on the ground. >> because they can't help? >> they can't help. i can tell you about a story flying an airplane and had a huge explosion the last thing i wanted to do was talk to

somebody on the ground. it turned out it a bag of potato chips exploded. in these sophisticated planes there is a lot of stuff going on. the black boxes we'll hear the bells and whistles. >> when do you think we'll hear from them. >> 24 to 48 hours. >> thanks so much. >> thanks for having me. take care. the media wasting no time attacking ted cruz? is this a preview of what's ahead for 2016 or is it just because it's ted cruz? bill o'reilly has been woken up early by his people. he'll be here to talk about us. attention parents, do you know what your children are doing on spring break? ainsley earhardt found out what some kids are doing and i believe it has nothing to do with preparing for finals. ♪

they don't mention it's a bomb. only a suspicious package. >> but she said it was a bomb. >> she said it was a bomb. for the next 17 minutes traffic continues and pedestrians walk within feet of that potential bomb. you can see that there. 30 minutes after the initial incident two secret service agents allegedly drunk after attending a party and drive through that secured area, push aside barriers and drive within feet of this potential bomb. now, around the same time a half hour later, the secret service finally issued an all points bulletin. look out for the suspect's vehicle. local law enforcement finds that vehicle, follows her but then mistakenly called off when the secret service says that's not the car. >> man. >> hour and 20 minutes later the bomb squad rendered the scene safe. three days later the suspect is

arrested 90 miles away. then after that the head of the secret service says he learns about the incident based on anonymous e-mails. >> we depend on them to protect the president and other people. for them to keep him in the dark, you know the people on the second layer of the hierarchy at the secret service didn't tell the boss for five days because this was embarrassing. >> democrats and republicans are outraged. elijah cummings of that committee is outraged. they are pointing fingers at each other instead the bad guys. we found out the secret service will not turn over copies of the tape they have to congress. we saw the metropolitan police department tape. and the policy used to be that they erased tapes within 72 hours. tapes relating to this incident were erased even though we knew it was not one but two crime

scenes. this is terrifying for america. they really need to get their act together. immediately. we are relying on these folks to keep our president safe. >> we are. secret service problems not so secret anymore. >> no more. >> peter johnson jr. thank you very much. up next this video is insane. tourists fleeing a bus -- look at that. it gets swallowed up by a sinkhole and then it goes down the river. president obama announcing a slowdown in the withdrawal of u.s. troops from afghanistan. is the president finally taking the war on isis seriously? colonel alan west is live next er. a mouth breather! well, put on a breathe right strip and shut your mouth. cold medicines open your nose over time, but add a breathe right strip and pow, it opens your nose up to 38% more. so you can breathe and do the one thing you want to do sleep. add breathe right to your cold medicine shut your mouth and sleep right. breathe right.

ever since darryl's wife started using gain flings, their laundry smells more amazing than ever. (sniff) uh honey isn't that the dog's towel? (dog noise) hey, mi towel, su towel. more gain scent, plus oxi boost and febreze for 3 big things in one gain fling. it's our best gain ever! . 2 incredible moments caught on camera. watch as passengers scramble off a tour bus in brazil before it gets swallowed by a massive sinkhole. watch this, the fast current

down there then sweeps the bus down the river. thankfully nobody was on board. nobody got hurt. what a picture. maybe elephants really are just gentle giants. these two elephants being transported to a circus in text when they're driver got stuck in the mud on the side of a louisiana highway. the truck started tipping over until the driver led the elephants outside and had them use their heads to prop the rig up until the police arrives. excellent. kimberly over to you. president obama after meeting with afghan president ghani announcing a slow down with the withdrawal of u.s. troops from afghanistan. is he trying to prevent a repeat of isis in iraq? here now is the president and ceo for the national center for policy analysis. colonel alan west. >> it was heartening to see

ghani's message yesterday. he gave thanks to the taxpayer. change, the president says he's going to keep them there. as a military guy, what does that mean to you? >> it's good to finally have a willing partner in the leadership of afghanistan. the former president was not that time of gentleman. we have to understand what's the task of those 9,000 and whatever to be there. are they going to be able to meet the requirements? the enemy -- >> what are the requirements? >> the enemy is still on the battlefield. because you come out with a declaration we have ended combat, they didn't get the memo. >> what's happening in that active theater this is not an operation that should be winding down. it should have a significant presence by questionings whether or not this amount of troops is sufficient. perhaps it should be greater. >> that's the issue. i mean what is the objective? what is the goal of the enemy?

we see the incredible spread of militant islam that goes from nigeria with boko haram all the way to the philippines and all points in between. instead of decimating our military folks don't realize that the army is preworld war i levels. the smallest and oldest fleet we have in the air force. the enemy is paying attention to that. if you're leaving 9,600 -- for every single trigger puller, it takes another six for lujustical support. >> they have a lot in their security forces. how effective are they? what do your friends tell you about what's happening there? do they know what they're doing? are they trained? >> adjust because you have 325,000, are they going to be effective? i would rather have a 20,000 to 30,000 committed force, an elite

force than have 300000 you've got to worry about them turning your guns. >> they want millions a year to sustain that force. >> you cannot have a timeline when you're looking at the enemy. you have to look at what is the enemy goals and objectives. >> they have no time line. their time line is patience at the plate. >> i say two and a half years in afghanistan. they are saying you have the watchers, we have the time. >> i'll catch up to you longer on the radio. good to see you in person. >> 14 minutes before the top of the hour. up next, the white house outraged that israel may have spied on their nuclear negotiations with iran. but how did the white house learn about the spying in the first place? we were spying on them. bill o'reilly will be on our couch. it will be a career changer for him >> but first let's check in with martha martha maccallum for what's coming up. >> so as you said, the president

says he's going to leave a small force in afghanistan. as isis rears its head there. breaking news out of yemen this morning as the u.s. backed president's compound appears to be under attack. bill o'reilly will join us with his take on this mess. we're waiting for news from the voice recorder from the crash in the alps. it is expected shortly l. bill and i will see you at the top of the hour. incredible! i've been claritin clear for ten days. when your allergy symptoms start, doctors recommend taking one claritin every day of your allergy season for continuous relief. with powerful 24-hour, non-drowsy claritin live claritin clear. every day.

ted cruz off to an impressive start. already raking in major donations in his race for the white house. he's facing his first big fight fighting off the comparison between himself and another first term senate candidate barack obama. >> there are marked dlinchsifferences

between myself and barack obama. he did not have any back bentures. in my time nobody can accuse me of that. >> somebody else who went to harvard is bill o'reilly. >> what a transition? >> you're a back benture. >> you know, he's timid. >> you got to respect the strategy of coming out on monday by yourself. he basically had the story line for the last two day. >> absolutely. it's early i don't know how much of an advantage it was. it was a shrewd thing to do. >> the comparison? >> valid on age and time spent in the senate. what difference does it make? they're so ideologically opposed. >> the number one thing they

want in a candidate is they want somebody who can win. can he win? >> it's not fair to say somebody can't win. because barack obama won and he came out of nowhere. he had the color issue that helped him with the press. i think there are going to be eight to ten republican people and they've got to slug it out. >> you think he can win? >> i think he's in it to win it. i'm not going to undermine him by saying he can't win. i don't care that's fair. >> he's part of the debate of these core principals and the direction of the country. let's talk about the media. using terms deaninizing saying he is an unbending conservatives. calling conservatives with these type of principals evil. >> i'm shocked they would demonize him. we live in a country where the national press is corrupt. and they have basically put aside fairness to promote what they believe is good for the

country. and overwhelmingly it's a secular progressive agenda. people who don't buy into that become tearts. not of fair criticism but of smears and let's diminish them and try to make them jokes or liars or whatever it may be. some of that on the right but not nearly what it is on the left. >> the internet sites play into that. they start it because there is no quality control on the internet. it gets cherry picked up by the papers and national broadcasts. so it's a bad sesspool. it's corrupt. all the politicians know what they're walking into. >> the president of the united states will have a problem with benjamin netanyahu. he has called out the israeli government because they don't want to go by a two state solution when their partner is hamas. here's the president yesterday. >> this can't be reduced to a matter of somehow let's all, you

know, hold hands and sing kumbaya. this is a matter of figuring out do we get through a policy difference that has great kwengs consequences for both countries and the region. >> what's going on here? >> president obama doesn't care about this. he has to say these things. he's been in office for more than six years. there's been no progress made there. he's not going to make progress. i don't know why he's wasting time. he should just say i don't care what happens over there. i care about social justice in the united states. i'm going to try to carry out policies here. over there i'm not engaged. that's it. >> let's talk a little bit about something that's going to happen this weekend. "killing jesus" will be on natgeo. here's a clip. >> i know you jesus of nazareth. you have opinions on everything. what's his opinion on this?

>> i am among you. it goes without saying. let him be the first to cast a stone at her. any among you who is without sin. >> i know that scene from the bible. >> yep. >> there have been a million movies made, but this one is different how? >> it's different because it tells you why jesus was killed. it wasn't for religious reasons, it was for political reasons. the book traces that. it's a hard edged movie. this really happened. this isn't religion, it's history. and that's the big difference. and i think that "killing jesus" is up as one of the best tv movies ever made. it's up there with lonesome dove. the quality of the film -- >> it's gigantic. >> it's a huge scope.

people -- you'll be thinking you're in the theater. we saw it in the theater on monday night at lincoln center here in new york. the performances -- the man who plays jesus is a muslim. >> he was here monday. >> he turns in a performance, if he's not nominated for a emmy they out to close. he's so compelling by the way you had him there, i heard he turned elizabeth into guilfoyle. >> that's right. >> kimberly is here. >> if you don't believe him now -- more on this transformation when we come back with bill o'reilly. ase allergy relief nasal spray. this changes everything. new flonase outperforms the #1 allergy pill so you will inhale life. when we breathe in allergens our bodies react by over-producing six key inflammatory substances that cause our symptoms. the leading allergy pill only controls one, flonase controls six. and 6 is greater than 1. so roll down your windows, hug your pet
