8:01 am
known a relative of one convict says he fears for his life telling greta van susteren what s 98. >> i am worried he is coming this way. the last thing he said to me is you are my brother, i love you your blood but if you turn against me i will kill you and my worst nightmare has come true, he has escaped and i have to worry if people going to try to kill me. jon: david miller is live in willsburg, new york. >> they 5 of this manhunt continues after a massive search took place yesterday. take a look down this road, at often the distance you can see the blue uniform department of corrections officers who are conducting a search. we will pan over ra concede the road has been sealed off not permitting residents to go down this road. we were told it was too dangerous. the media is also camped out.
8:02 am
a lot of anxiety are look at this video tape recorded a few moments ago a you get a sense of what is taking place. we watched military formation 2 dozen department of corrections officers marching down the street as they stand out to search for these two fugitives. people are very much on edge. with me one of the presidents has lived here for how many years? >> 1988. >> you are on edge. you are armed. show us your weapon and tell me why you are carrying at and what your concerns are. >> you get 50 police or 400 officers total, 8 tvs and dogs you lock your doors, lock your truck and pull the gun out of the gun box and if you have a license you put it on and it makes everyone feel safer. >> is that the mood of most in
8:03 am
this community gq >> a lot of people lived in neighborhoods. they didn't feel safe. up the street they had a young baby, in the woods they laughed. they didn't come back until this morning and the officers reappeared this morning. i am going to stay here. i have no reason to believe. it is my home. in my home i am fine. >> one of the residents here is armed. and number of other people are armed as well but some are not. is safe to say everyone here is concerned many are out right scared. there's also a search taking place simultaneously on the outskirts of the prison where the prison is located. there are now officers law enforcement in paramilitary gear with assault rifles searching that location but we are told from a source connected to the
8:04 am
investigations that there is an assumption of credibility that led them here was in fact genuine they received 300 leads. this could be the best one yet but right now no sightings have been reported. at least not since the original report that two men were seen walking down this road during a rainstorm and fled into the woods when a car approached. that brought law-enforcement year but in fact no additional sidings. jon: the area they escape from is some distance from willsborough. what is the thinking of how they got there? >> it is 40 miles south and if you look at the road behind me this road closed, if you travel down this road half a mile, there are railroad tracks there is train service, it is very possible these two men might have hopped a train to make this 40 mile trip to willsborough
8:05 am
that is one of the assumptions of stories are presumably acting on but at this point they really don't know if these men are here at all in give the did get here did they get here on foot or take some other means of transportation. jon: when you see how dense the force and shrubbery is, police have quite a job ahead of them. thank you. jenna: the pentagon wants to san 400 u.s. troops to iraq and open another training base. has been a year since isis swept into mosul taking over iraq at second-largest city. that invasion marked the beginning of the terror group that said the march across northern iraq. national security correspondent jennifer griffin has more from the pentagon. >> it is an admission that the current strategy is not working two days after the president says he does not have a complete strategy from the pentagon for training iraqi forces a senior
8:06 am
u.s. military official confirms the fox news the pentagon has recommended 400 additional u.s. troops be sent to iraq to stand up a new training base 20 miles outside ramadi. we announced the expected announcement from the white house press secretary. the military has 3,080 troops inside iraq, more than the number of iraqi forces undergoing u.s.-led training. to date no sudanese have been trained by the u.s. military since the training effort began in earnest in january which raises serious questions about the effectiveness of the training and when did the u.s. will be viewed as partisan in the ongoing sectarian conflict between sunni and shiite which gave birth to isis. aaron zero iraqi forces being trained there. there are currently five u.s. training sites inside iraq, this new recommendation from the pentagon would bring the number to 6, roughly 9,000 iraqi troops have been trained by the u.s. military since last year.
8:07 am
none have been sent to ramadi where the fighting against isis has been most intense. exactly a year ago mosul fell 2 isis fighters, a wake-up call to administration officials who wanted to stay out of iraq and syria. senior administration officials predicted it would take three to five or even seven years to defeat the 30,000 isis fighters. year after mosul has fallen it looks like this effort to train iraqis and destroy isis has barely begun. neil: jenna: we will talk the u.s. army special operations in iraq, why this is a good start but much more needs to be done. jon: egyptian authorities foiled a terror attack in the city of luxor. three islamic militants targeted the ancient karnak temple, one of the most popular tourist sites. one man ran from them, his explosive vest blue up. another was killed in a gunfight

8:09 am
task. i think any objective observer would say this lot is on the fritz. will hold point of obamacare was to make health care more affordable. premiums are not going down, they are going up. >> reporter: as if to suggest a gargantuan fight may lie ahead between executive branch and legislative branch keep in mind what president obama said at the g-7 summit before leaving, he excoriated the supreme court for taking up this case and unequivocally defended obamacare. >> the thing is working. part of what is bizarre about this is we haven't had a lot of conversation about the horrors of obamacare because none have come to pass, 16 million people of gotten health insurance. and overwhelming majority are satisfied with their health insurance. >> reporter: so ryan pleaded with burwell to spell out what
8:10 am
the administration is going to do if the supreme court rules against obamacare. will the president say my way or the highway or will he work with congress to come up with some sort of temporary remedy? she refused to answer that question directly and did say this. listen closely. >> the problem that gets created is subsidies aren't available. they aren't available for millions of americans they lose their insurance, it drives up costs in individual market. to fault that from them, the critical decisions are going to sit with congress for states. >> reporter: senate majority leader mitchell mcconnell told bret baier that the pentagon -- he said, quote we have a proposal that protects the american people from a very bad law. what that entails is being fine-tuned. he is heading up the congressional team working out the temporary fix that would include temporary assistance for
8:11 am
6.4 million americans who would be left without subsidies. a very tense time here. jenna: all the more reason to watch this story, thank you. jon: new developments in the murder case, a body found in the hudson river after his fiancee was charged with his murder. what we are learning now. plus the scene looked like something fell from the sky but the only thing that went airborne workpieces of a jet ski after an explosion. to the white house, ready to possibly double the salary levels requiring businesses to pay overtime. what would the economic impact be? our political panel debates it. do you think the obama administration should push for higher wages or leave that to the marketplace? live chat is up and running, go to foxnews.com/happeningsnow and join the conversation. smarter simpler faster sleeker earlier

8:14 am
jenna: crime stories we're following on happening now, executed by lethal injection in
8:15 am
missouri, convicted of murdering his girlfriend 14 years ago. his defense team claimed he was mentally ill. the governor and the supreme court intervene to. court action to date for the man accused of two jewish sites in kansas last year, the avowed white supremacist is representing himself and appearing on evidence in the case. the funerals for the upstate new york man allegedly killed by his fiancee during a kayaking trip. he will be laid to rest at the end of the monthly his fiancee is charged with murder and manslaughter in the case. jon: i hearing underway on capitol hill on federal wage as the white house looks to boost salary levels requiring overtime pay. right now an employee who makes $23,000 a year must be paid overtime for any work obviously
8:16 am
that occurs beyond regular working hours. the obama administration is looking to raise that threshold to as much as $52,000. critics say it would cost jobs, wages and income inequality are becoming an issue in the 2016 campaign. talk about it with our political panel, daniel halpern is editor of the weekly standard kevin is a reporter with the whole. kevin, the politics of this first. the president is be essentially putting republicans who obviously controlled congress in the position of opposing what seems on the surface to be higher wages. right? >> absolutely. the democrats as we know have really pushed hard for a politically popular policy that would raise the minimum wage but with republican controlled congress they can't increase the federal minimum wage. with that the conservatives i talk to are saying this is an
8:17 am
effort to sidestep that increasing the overtime hours but when you get to the policy of it there are a lot of questions about whether or not this would actually grow the economy and create jobs or whether it would in fact limit economic growth and looking at five yar anniversary of the dodd-frank implementation. jon: obviously it has political popularity. >> you have to give it to president obama king promised the government would defended the and and he is going around congress, they won't pass a minimum wage increase so this is what he is trying to do. the problem is with his left wing economic engineering, it might not work. it might help some people but it is probably going to hurt a lot of other people. why should an employer increase the hours of current employees give a lot of overtime if it will cost them a lot more? bare bottom line is to worry about their bottom line, making money. if this cost them too much money they will find a way around it
8:18 am
and it will hurt the average worker and labor and is not going to achieve its stated goal no matter how noble it might be. jon: this has only been updated, hasn't been updated since 1975. americans look at that and say obviously there has been inflation, these numbers ought to go up. >> that is a great point and that is the case a lot of democrats are making, this policy has not kept up with the rate of inflation. but i think when you get into the politics of this, the 2016 cycle picking that republicans have an opportunity to push forth their own policy proposal aimed instead of just criticizing an increase from overtime hours from the present they have an opportunity to really make their case because again those small business owners on main street who are trying to hire more workers, and
8:19 am
they are going to have to radically increase the level at which they are able to pay folks who are working overtime that might not create jobs and begin the questions this raises, if you respond to an e-mail after work hours or technically working overtime, those of the questions i have to tell you in washington i don't know anybody who doesn't respond to an e-mail after work hours. jon: what are republicans opposed to? the president can't make this happen with the phone and japan and all indications are that this new legislation this new directive is going to take effect in about a year when the president, when everybody is in the thick of the campaign trail. >> exactly right. republicans can and probably should oppose this and they will no doubt but they can't just stop there. wages have been stagnant under president obama. you hear this from president obama and hillary clinton and
8:20 am
everybody. if we run the government this is how wages will increase, we won't loose denis hughes left-wing economic engineering, we will find a different way but they need to address it in a coherent fought for policy oriented way that can gain traction with the american public and on capitol hill and it is up to them. it is a heavy burden on them and president obama has shifted the argument with this bill or this executive action a proposed executive action but some things they need to address for sure and can't ignore it and oppose it. that is not enough. jon: gentlemen, thanks. jenna: we want to show you what is happening on wall street the dow trading higher by 250 points after a few sessions that were of little rocky to say the least.
8:21 am
now we are back gaining momentum again, positive territory for this year led in part by higher oil prices which is helping the energy sector. in the meantime controversial bill move forward in california. out an outbreak at disneyland prompted the nation's strictest legislation on vaccinations. we will get into that controversial as it is. a texas man dies knowing a neighbor's lawn. what prompted the surprise attack. >> went out another 30 feet that way and they swarmed him over there. he had to get up and went a foot across the street to his house where his wife sharon tried to take care of him until they called 911.

8:26 am
>> reporter: california is one legislative step away from introducing as you said one of the strictest vaccination laws in the country. it would also be one of the most controversial as evidenced by the passions on display during, before and after the debate at the state capital. the bill will remove personal belief exemptions for all children all flow it would allow some medical exemptions. vaccination opponents say the bill by keeping their children out of schools effectively strips them of a right to an education. supporters say it is more about the rights of kids to be safe from disease. >> we respect parents''s rights but there are other rights too. what about the rights of those in the mainstream who are vaccinated? what about their rights to be
8:27 am
protected? >> reporter: the bill's backers say the recent measles outbreak at disneyland in california shows the need for this kind of bill but opponents say lawmakers are overreacting and they are swearing they will keep fighting. >> the problems that gets created is subsidies aren't available. they aren't available for millions of americans, they lose insurance it drives up costs in the individual market. to solve that problem. >> entirely wrong. >> reporter: the bill now goes to the state assembly's for a vote and it could be become law before california's kids return from their summer break. >> we had the wrong piece of sound that was played earlier in the program. sylvia burwell testifying in front of the committee. jonathan hunt in l.a..

jenna: the president of russia
8:32 am
meeting with the leader of the catholic church, pope francis was urged to use his visit to help ease tension in ukraine. we will keep you updated. airline stocks continued to fall today. what does that mean for you as you look for a great fare on your summer travel plans? a watercraft dealership leads to an explosion that rattles an entire neighborhood. what caused a jet ski to blow up. jon: fox news alert, lawmakers hearing about the administration's foreign policy agenda specifically in the middle east. the former director of the defense intelligence agency appearing before a house committee expected to outline what he says is a failing italy's policy. the continuing threat from iran. michael flynn calls the administration's policy one of willful ignorance. catherine heritage keeping an eye on that from washington. >> reporter: the hearing today
8:33 am
is examining the intelligence picture leading up to a potential nuclear deal with iran at the end of the month and the focus this morning is on the delivery system for a nuclear weapon and how far iran has come in what is often described as a second track for development. former head of the defense intelligence agency is laying out publicly is concerned that a deal with iran, what he describes as a high level of risk to verify any agreement with the regime in tehran. in his prepared testimony michael flynn said u.s. policy is adrift in the middle east. the obama administration is sacrificing longstanding regional partnerships to get a deal before the june '32 deadline. >> the middle east struggling to be born and if we are not careful the united states will be left out of the growth of this region and our security at home will be placed at further risk. >> reporter: a senior republican on the house intelligence committee told fox the idea to lift some sanctions has not been in america's best interest and
8:34 am
berries and a week to verify whether the money is used for programs like these that further support iran's nuclear program. >> made it better than it needed the which has boosted the iranian regime and the hard-liners in iran have benefited from that enormously. >> reporter: on who is responsible for setting the strategy in iraq and the broader middle east, testified the onus is in fact on the president and not the pentagon to set direction and policy and it has been up to the military and intelligence community to provide options for his approval, not the other way around. >> caller: the white house is expected to announce more american. on the ground in iraq. the pentagon is asking for 400 additional troops to expand the training of iraqi forces anbar province. a former masters sergeant with army special operations and
8:35 am
joint special operations command in iraq, jason, what do you think of this news? >> thank you for having me on. this is a complex area. i have been on the ground in tikrit, ramadi, fallujah. we have worked with the iraqis. it is a good move in the right direction, ought to get more forces out there to try to energize this fight and take back that terrain but it will take more and that is a complex problem. holding ground is different than taking it. jenna: best case scenario how long will it take and how much money and energy will it take to get the iraqi forces to the level where they can not only take back cities like ramadi but whole ground? >> that is one of the complex problems we fought with and trained with our iraqi partners for a long time and what we have not seen yet is a lot of their impetus to say and hold ground, conventional forces that come behind the attack in this city
8:36 am
or deflating crisis in this case so it does take a long time. that is the high watermark of our training, when we get them not just to take ground but hold the ground so it requires a strategy that is long-term focus and also we have been there in this area we need our focus to be a regional stability focus so if we think holding this terrain is important we need to make sure our strategy matches that. jenna: you just said we have been there doing this, training iraqis for a long time. i am wondering the wisdom of doing it once again when the end result we have seen overcapacity several years hasn't been what we like. we have seen iraqi forces not able to succeed worth the time and energy and manpower. >> that is a challenging question. our soldiers, service members, airmen, marines, we will do this job well everyday and any time
8:37 am
our commanders are tasked with it is a challenge but we know it is important, if it is important to hold that ground or maintain a presence we want to be side by side with our partners. they're on the battlefield and working on how to hold this ground, where to focus efforts is it worth it. that is a question for politicians, the political leadership to actually set the tone. our military commanders will fall l.a. and execute with honor every day. this is the greatest country in the world and we will do the job if you give us the time. jenna: what about the soldiers that are going, how vulnerable they are being put into a situation where they are not necessarily on the offensive but they are there in anbar province training with people who are unpredictable at best. >> military commanders are very smart so they will protect those soldiers to the extent they can but make no mistake this is a dangerous area. getting our troops in harm's way it is best have clear
8:38 am
objectives. our military forces will dominate the battlefield. when those objectives are ambiguous, we are just training to train, that is a more tenuous position. what we need to see is not just o retake losel retake ramadi but a follow on strategy. what does it mean to the government of iraq? as much as we -- jenna: you are getting to the broader point about the intention. katherine harris talked about that when it comes to foreign policy and i'm curious about your view on that. the intention, what is it in your mind keys you what should it be? what else do we need besides training? >> intentions go to the global, what is our role in the region, how to destabilize? do we want to cut off the lines of communication between isis so we can hold ground and maintain an iraqi persistent presence?
8:39 am
that would be important, a qualified strategy but told terrain separate their ability to coalesce and force them to mask on our target so we can target them. is holding that terrain. the broader policy is about the regional stability. what does the government of iraq have at stake and how much are they willing to part with us? we do this job every day the test is given to us and we are best to do it but we need to make sure those strategies, those objectives are clearly defined. that is what military commanders require. jenna: our viewers share your enthusiasm for the men who served and certainly a lot of big questions remain about the way forward. we look forward to having you back, thanks for the time today. jon: if you are booking flights for summer vacation airline stocks are recovering after a steep drop which could be a warning sign for the broader economy. it is already affecting ticket
8:40 am
prices with southwest among the first to raise fares. news of smaller lavatories and smaller bag allowances. live from the fox business network studio lauren simonetti with details. i didn't think things could get any smaller aircraft. >> reporter: sounds like you're getting frustrated. so are the airlines. this week was so rough for them. many are part of the dow jones industry asian average, a key indicator for the overall economy, a ship stuff to businesses and consumers. if they are not busy that could be a warning sign and that index is recovering today but dropped significantly as of late. meanwhile southwest hiking airfare by $5 each way on a small percentage of its market. the increase comes a few days after the massive scale where folks who get round-trip tickets for $98, that essentially broke the internet. we have seen southwest and american and united and delta
8:41 am
cut their forecasts for key revenue figure meaning they might be worried they are not bringing in enough money. is that mean it is time to add more seats? shrink the bathroom, boeing's are working on ways to shrink the size so they can make room for additional seats in the plane that means reducing space in the bathroom. if that doesn't rile your fenders the airlines may roll out new rules to make carry-ons smaller. two pictures, your carry-on probably looks like the bigger one on a right but the international air transport association is recommending the smaller one, 21 inches tall, 13 inches wide, 7-1/2 deep as the standard and working with the luggage manufacturers for the seal of approval on the new bags. let's show you the big board before we go. a great day for investors today. this is a sign that stocks might have been oversold. a big reason for the rally is the fact that oil prices are up
8:42 am
and energy companies including the airlines today are doing well. jon: luggage manufacturers as well because everyone has to buy new carry on bags. >> reporter: it will be voluntary but people might find it easier instead of trying to figure out how that box is they have to stuff your bag in, always different to get the standard that. jon: another headache for flyers. jenna: some shopping when you get there. the nice way to go travel light buy things and -- jon: where do you stuff those clothes when you come home. jenna: we worry about that later as long as the shopping trip is successful. the colorado movie massacre trial, we are hearing from the juror who started it all after a legal panel weighs in on the judge's actions. >> there is no excuse for me not telling you. i don't pay attention to my husband most of the time. it wasn't really that important at that time.

8:48 am
was and i said no, why? he said that it is tweeting on facebook. >> have you heard any information about related to the case? >> no and if i am on facebook or something if i do see the headlines i don't click the link. jon: a trial attorney and the former prosecutor, this all started because of a member of the prosecution team thought he was messaging somebody in his office. instead he was on twitter, he send out a tweet about the presentation, part of the presentation. the defense objected, wanted a mistrial and that is what got this ball rolling. this woman gets a call from her husband about this whole episode involving the mistaken tweet and talks about it with two of the other jurors. did she deserve to be dismissed for having done that?
8:49 am
>> absolutely. there is a reason we are confident in the legal system depends on juries only taking into account evidence that it admissible at trial, that is deemed by a judge. that is why we have pre-trial motions because jurors are not supposed to hear about certain evidence that is inadmissible or not relevant to the case and they are admonish before of trial and at the conclusion of every single court day, did not discuss the effect of this case with anybody, did not discuss the effect of this case with other jurors into your called on to deliberate, did not go on social media or read about any reports of this case and the reason is because we want them to rely exclusively on the evidence presented at trial. that is why we have alternates. the jury needed to go. >> the woman gave her best defense before the commercial break where she sat i usually don't listen to my husband's.
8:50 am
>> this woman absolutely had to go. her husband probably didn't like that response at all especially hearing it on national news but she had to go. she violated the order when she asks to the attorney was a response should not have been no why, it should have been i to discuss this case with you at all, i am under strict orders from the court. violated the order, had to go as did the other jurors who were having conversations endeavour hearing conversations. the defense is appropriately concerned because there was the least one other juror that this judge declined to dismiss finding that he found the woman to be credible about what she heard and to and here. the defense has a right to a fair trial. if there's any question about whether a witness, whether a jury can be fair and impartial including whether they follow the judge's orders the defense wants that george to be dismissed as well and she wasn't. >> we have to leave it there. thank you. >> this next scene looks like
