6:00 am
all week right? >> yeah. then my birthday is monday. just if you want to -- >> you reminded us at the top of the show. >> i know you're not here tomorrow. go shopping for a birthday gift. please ed! >> have a great day. great show guys. good morning, everybody. all-out manhunt is now under way for an infamous drug lord known as the bin laden of drug lords. authorities believe he escaped through an opening 20 by 20 in the hour area of his prison cell. dropped 30 feet down in a hole and rode out in a motorcycle. the question on everybody's lips is where is he now.
6:01 am
historic nuclear deal with iran could come as soon as today. a midnight deadline looms but the clock is ticking down and severe sticking points remain. ericremain. eric: good morning. i'm in for bill hemmer this morning. june kerry promising an agreement he says will prevent iran from building a nuclear bomb. >> i think we should have walked away from the table a long time ago and push the pause button to get back to our original goal of stopping the nuclear bomb
6:02 am
expansion. martha: rich, the big question today is are they actually going to reach and announce a deal? >> they have another self-i am mowed deadline they are working up against. the meetings continue in vienna. there was optimism over the weekend perhaps there would be a deal. but officials were still saying there were plenty of issues to resolve. the counselor for the ministry of foreign affairs tweeted today, no one is thinking of another extension. everyone working hard to get to yes today but political will is still required. secretary of state john kerry just concluded his talks about the iran foreign minister. we are waiting for any word on
6:03 am
whether they are any closer to reaching a deal. so if they do get an agreement rich. the warm administration is likely to face an uphill battle at home on capitol hill, right? >> absolutely. what will be the timetable that the u.s. and iran. this effort from the obama administration faces a significant challenge at home. >> ratchet up the sanctions. that's what brought us to the table in the first place. that's why they were hurting. that's a strategy that could have been dee deployed a couple years ago that could have gotten us to a better place. >> the president continues to be it
6:04 am
would put in place the most intrusive set of inspections ever imposed on a country's nuclear program. >> if they reach a deal we expect congress will weigh in on this. martha: will any deal with iran pass muster on capitol hill? that will be the question. we are going to ask senator john corn anyone who will be with us live and get his thoughts on how he thinks this potential deal will go over on capitol hill. >> a lot of questions about whether there will be inspections of the military sites. not just managed inspections. will that be used to fund terrorism around the world? eric: greece reaching a new deal on a bailout plan.
6:05 am
the agreement calls for greece to make severe cutbacks in exchange for more loans. they have done this before, so will it really work? >> this is a deal that paves the way for a new round of negotiation for a third greek bailout. what it does for now is keep greece in the euro, it keeps greece from going bankrupt, but that's only if the greek government can swiftly vote into law the conditions laid out in these contentious meetings. then some european governments most importantly germany will also have to vote on that. the cuts demand are much more of the same. what is new and probably more controversial is the call for $50 billion euros of greek assets to be privatized. it's overseen by european
6:06 am
institutions. most of it will be used to repay debt and recapitalize greek banks. some are horrified at thought of more austerity. >> we can't have more cuts. we have already had 10,000 suicide. >> reporter: this is a deal that's much harsher than the greeks said no to 8 days ago. eric: later on we'll be talking to gerri willis and what it means. martha: another candidate is entering the race for the white house. it's this man.
6:07 am
scott walker. he will officially announce his candidacy later today. but he released this video this morning. watch this. >> i'm running for president to fight and win for the american people. not sacrificing our principles. we won three elections in four years in a blue state. now we need to do the same thing for america. martha: mark theisen is a fox news scon tributer and the author of "a governor's story and nation's challenge." he has spent quite a bit of time with scott walker working on that book. people are at a saturation point. they have been learning about all these candidate. tell us what we should know about this man.
6:08 am
>> reporter: i went into the book an admirer and came out a true believer. he's a truly impressive individual. he's super smart. he inherited a $3.6 deficit and turned it interest to a surplus without raising taxes or decimating education or cutting service to the poor. he won three elections in wisconsin in four years in a state that hasn't gone republican for president since 1984, and he did it not by tacking to the center, but by governing as a con. martha: you see him as -- governing as a conservative. martha: you see him as a
6:09 am
reformer. you have to bring up what trump has done. can scott walker do that in the form of a guy month who walked the walk as governor? >> the difference between walker and people like trump and some of the other candidates in the republican race, he's not just a fighter. he's taken on tough fights an has won every single time. there is no other politician in america that they have tried to destroy more than scott walker. in his recall election, one out of six people who voted for number his recall planned to vote for barack obama. so he can rally the base and win
6:10 am
the senate. martha: you say he's got a spine of steel. >> reporter: when he was first elected the packers won the super bowl and 56,000 people showed up to celebrate. do you know how many people were outside his office during this protest? 100,000. they spat on his staff and urinate on his door. they threatened to gut one of his aides like a deer. he stuck to his guns because he believed what he was doing was right and was vinld kaitd. the reforms worked. he was reelected not once but twice in the area of four years. the gop for starters as we gets into this race, we'll see how he does. very interesting.
6:11 am
thank you mark. eric: reports that a top isis leader was killed in a drone strike. does this make any difference in our efforts to degrade and destroy the terrorist group? >> the truth is hillary clinton's ideas create more income inequality because bigger government creates crony capitalism. martha: hillary clinton is set to unveil her plan to fix the economy. one lawmaker says clinton has a quote excitement problem. eric: a pizza shop worker is being called a hero for what she did on her break. >> what are the odds of me looking at my phone and i son
6:12 am
started nodding up. if i buy a car through usaa, i know i'm getting a fair price. i was like, wow, if i could save this much, then i could maybe upgrade a little bit. we realized, okay, this not only could be convenient we could save a lot of money. usaa car buying service. powered by truecar. save money zero hassle.
6:13 am
6:14 am
6:15 am
welcome to fort green sheets. welcome to castle bravestorm. it's full of cool stuff, like my second in command... and my trusty bow. and free of stuff i don't like. and in my castle we only eat chex cereal. chex cereal. it's full of delicious crunchability. no artificial flavors, and it's gluten-free. and that's something even my brother ... sister can understand. mom, brian threw a ball in the house! martha: a pizza shop worker is a hero because without her a little boy would be god knows where with kidnappers. she happened to see an sam were alert on her phone and she looked up and saw something that caught her eye in the parking
6:16 am
lot. >> i was standing by the trash can. i seen a white car pull up. i looked down and said white dodge, no, that's not him. the man was looking at me. the little boy looked scared. i thought no, that's not him. martha: courtney called the police and a short time later the officers arrested the suspect and returned that little boy to his family. what a story. eric: a needed win in the war against radical islamic terrorists. we are told the islamic leader has been killed in a drone strike. he was a former pakistani commander. his death could represent a
6:17 am
major blow to the terrorist group. but is it really enough to turn the tide against the islamic state? general jack keane joins us. how do we face the tens of thousands of islamic fanatics who follow him? >> it's a good thing to knock this guy down for sure. it's a setback for isis which is glowing afghanistan. but it's going to continue to grow. that's the reality of it. isis now not any longer just in iraq and syria. they are in seven countries. this more countries on the way and they have a worldwide following where many citizens in countries that are radicalized are willing to kill their fellow citizens. in afghanistan it's a surprise
6:18 am
isis got a foothold, we are pulling out. we are closing all of our bases and shutting the lights out and walking way from afghanistan. a huge mistake if that happens. there is absolutely no doubt about it. i'm convinced they will go to the president and seek his relieve with this arbitrary decision to pull troops out. isis is growing and the taliban is re-emerging. to walk away from all of that and let radical islam grow. makes no sense. the president said it's a generational war. we shouldn't be closing up shop.
6:19 am
>> reporter: the president has promised to degrade and destroy isis. they only trained 60 rebels? >> if isis expand into seven countries with more on the way we haven't contained it and we are nowhere near defeating it. there is no plan to put together an effective ground force in syria which is necessary if you are going to defeat isis. 60 troops have been trained so far. that was pretty humiliating testimony by secretary of defense carter. what an embarrassing statistic that is after $500 million being thrown at this thing. it will take some time before we have anything to show for it unless we bring in an arab coalition on the ground. eric: you have got several million troops, where are they?
6:20 am
why aren't they stepping up even further? what can we do about this? >> you are absolutely right. the fact is they will not get involved on the ground in syria unless we make up our mind to do something with assad. they want to change that political leadership there. to do that i believe their recommendations are solid. the turks are making the recommendations and all our arab friends are making the seam recommendations. get a political solution there and then go after isis with an arab coalition on the ground. eric: unless this happens this will continue and the radical islamic terrorist will continue. >> the long awaited see get to
6:21 am
"to kill a mocking byrd." but apparently there are some changes to the krirks we love in "to kill a mockingbird." so we'll discuss what much going on here. eric: one of the biggest drug lord kingpins making an escape underneath a prison. how did he do that? you know he had to have help. we'll have the latest on his brazen breakout next. each's taunting the government and he's laughing at them and he dock what he wants. ♪ ♪
6:22 am
♪ you're only young once. unless you have a subaru. (announcer) the subaru xv crosstrek. symmetrical all-wheel drive plus 34 mpg. love. it's what makes a subaru a subaru.
6:23 am
6:24 am
6:25 am
eric: novak djokovic wins wimbledon for a third time. it's a repeat of last year's final. he defeated his long-time nemesis roger federer. federer did fight hard. but djokovic stepped up eventually winning in four sets. he then celebrated by eating some of the famous cracked on the center court. federer still hold the record with 17 and if you lose you
6:26 am
don't have to eat the grass. martha: a notorious drug king penn escapes from a mexican prison. he was once named the world's most wanted man. he was called the usama bin laden of drug lords. >> reporter: you can probably say he's the world's most wanted man again. even though he was in a maximum security prison many believe he was still running his sinaloa cartel. guzman escaped from prison through a tunnel that opened into a shower area of his home into a home being constructed near the prison.
6:27 am
this is a hallmark of one of those tunnels. it was elaborate. 25 feet underground. as for guzman he was last seen in the prison saturday evening. somehow the prison's security camera stopped tracking him and they found a 20 by 20 inch hole near the shower. this is an embarrassment to the mexican president. they agreed they needed to extradite guzman to the u.s. the last time he escaped maximum security prison was in 2001 and he remained on the run until last year when he was
6:28 am
recaptured. martha: there was a huge move to extradite hip to the united states to face charges here which was regived by mexico. >> reporter: they are saying we told you so. this is a guy who has been in charge of one of the most powerful cartels in the world. a lot of violence along the border that even stretches into our country. while he's a mass murderer, it's a dangerous situation in mexico and will likely reignite the drug wars in mexico that most likely will filter into the united states. this prison was 50 miles outside
6:29 am
of mexico city near a couple major cities in mexico. we are told the airport has been shut down and a major manhunt is under way to recapture him. martha: they dug a tunnel, he dropped 30 feet down to this tunnel. and then he got on a motorcycle that was specially fitted to ride on a railroad track. more coming up on that later. eric: did the white house abandon an effective program to keep criminal illegal immigrants out of our country? why some officials say that move may be costing lives. martha: negotiators may be on the brink of reaching a nuclear deal with iran. republican senator john cornyn
6:30 am
joins us live with his take. but here is one of his col eyeings senator tom cotton. >> i think the results of these negotiations will be a bad deal. this is judy. judy is 65 years old. her mortgage payment is $728 a month. that's almost $9,000 a year now judy doesn't think that she'll be able to retire until her mortgage is fully paid off. this is mike. mike is also
6:31 am
65 years old. his monthly mortgage payment was $728 a month. now mike thought he would have to work for another 12 years until his mortgage was paid off. and then mike heard that a reverse mortgage may help him. he called one reverse mortgage to get the details. mike retired immediately after getting his one reverse mortgage loan. maybe you too can benefit from a reverse mortgage. call one reverse mortgage now and find out if you qualify. they'll send you an information guide that includes all the details and the stories of mike and others. a reverse mortgage... is a mortgage with no required monthly payments. it was created for homeowners 62 or older so they can continue to afford and own the home they love. many one reverse mortgage clients find they can retire sooner, do more the things they love or simply put more money in the bank. a reverse mortgage could change your retirement and your life.
6:32 am
i examined my finances and i said, there is no reason why i shouldn't retire today. 10, 12 years earlier than i had anticipated. in the first year, his cash flow savings totaled $8,736. after 5 years, it will be over $40,000. it really is worth a call to find out if a reverse mortgage can help you too. call one reverse mortgage now and ask for your free guide. when account lead craig wilson books at laquinta.com. he gets a ready for you alert the second his room is ready. so he knows exactly when he can settle in and practice his big pitch. and when craig gets his pitch down pat, do you know what he becomes? great proposal! let's talk more over golf! great. better yet, how about over tennis? even better.

a game changer! your 2 o'clock is here. oops, hold your horses. no problem. la quinta inns & suites is ready for you, so you'll be ready for business. the ready for you alert, only at lq.com. laquinta! martha: a lot of discussing going on. iran and six world powers reportedly on the brink of reaching an historic deal. they are saying they are pretty serious about this one. if it happens then congress will get 60 days to review a final aagreement which could get interesting on this. there are no gairn tease it will pass. so what will the president do then? we are joined by john corn this of texas. nice to have you in new york today. a lot of things on the table here. let's jump forward to what happens if there is a deal, then
quote
6:34 am
we'll talk about what's in this deal. do you think it would pass? you have robert menendez a democrat who has been against this deal from the beginning. >> there is a framework or process that congress would use to pass this. there is a veto overright majority. so i think there face broad bipartisan scepticism what this deal is. netanyahu says rather than prevent iran from getting a nuclear weapon, it paves the way. and that's a concern. the country responsible for state terrorism -- state-sponsored terrorism this is very troubling. martha: how many democrats do you think would vote against
6:35 am
this deal? >> that remains to be seen. if the previous vote on the congressional approval process is any indication there is broad bipartisan concern. the devil is in the details and i think the details will be important. over the weekend there walking talk about hillary clinton and whether she would peak out about that deal. >> secretary clinton has been one of the principal people involved in this. it would seem strange if she didn't speak out. she owns it. she thinks it's a good deal or if she has concerns and wants to separate herself from the administration she'll be compelled to speak out as well.
6:36 am
you have got stuff that's part of this. potentially the lifting of the arms embargo against iran which as i recall was never part of this deal, they wanted to have a nuclear energy facility and be able to continue that. now we are talking about letting them trade arms all off the middle east and sell their stuff there? >> they are one of the principal supporters. they have their fingerprints on every bad thing that's happening in the middle east. this idea we would release the sanctions and the arms embargo and give them more money and more weapons to reek more havoc and kill more people is crazy. >> reporter: john kerry thinks they will help us by isis.
6:37 am
if you are one of our sunni allies i guess you will say we are not friends anymore. >> our adversaries no longer fear us and our friends no longer trust us. they are looking to other people to help them. recent reports are saudi arabia, a sunni nation is nervous about what's happening here. they will seek nuclear weapons and strike up alliances with countries like russia. who is not exactly a friend to the united states. martha: do you think regardless of what they couple with, it may get shot down? >> we do have the authority given the numbers to reject the deal. even if the president retoes it we can override his veto. the choice is not between this deal and war it's between this deal and a better deal once we
6:38 am
continue to tim pose additional sanctions. martha: the iran leadership is calling us arrogant and burning flags on the street. so it's an interesting situation. senator, thank you very much. good to have you with us today. eric: the issue of criminal illegal aliens explode during the presidential race. it turns out the white house abandoned the federal secure communities program saying it wasn't work. but the i.c.e. former director says that's not true. the taxpayers spent $3 billion on this program. why is it a bust? what's wrong with it? >> reporter: nothing is wrong with it. i'd did what the president said
6:39 am
they wanted. the feds created secure communities using the local jails as the choke point to separate illegal immigrants from criminal aliens. when a suspect was booked into jail their fingerprints were checked to see if they were deportable. congressman dated this for those who overstayed their visa or committed crime. congress missed almost nine out of ten illegal aliens. >> it worked too well in terms of broadly identifying individuals who had been arrested and charged with crimes. >> reporter: in 2012 the administrationed a --the administration praised the program. eric: why is the administration killing the program? >> reporter: democrats in big
6:40 am
cities complained it snagged too many illegal immigrants guilty of non-violent crimes so cities like france and chicago enacted sanctuary laws. many believe the laws went too far. the problem is data shows one out of six illegals released are rearrested within three years. pap study shown out of 8,000 illegal immigrants released 2,000 were rearrested for domestic violence and in san francisco murder. eric: it's such a tragedy when you have those type of numbers. martha: presidential candidate hillary clinton making her case today. is she doing of any to fire up
6:41 am
her base? one democratic lawmaker is saying they think the excitement factor is not there. what sent one woman flying into the air and on to those nearby rocks.

i have lung cancer. and i've heard it all... the well-meaning advice of friends... the guarded words of doctors...
6:43 am
the brave resolve of loved ones... what i haven't heard... what a lot of us haven't heard nearly enough... ...is new news. over 430,000 americans are living with lung cancer today. in fact, every two and a half minutes another person is diagnosed. although there are known risk factors anyone can get lung cancer. and every case is different. but now patients could be hearing some unexpected news. this news goes beyond what you may know today. research is leading to scientific advancements... that could offer some patients the potential of longer life... and the chance to share more moments and memories. news in lung cancer? now, i'm listening. if you have lung cancer, you haven't heard it all. yet. talk to your doctor today for more information on lung cancer. and call now... or visit lungcancerinfo.org for a free patient education kit. prep trauma unit 5. what've we got? bp 64/40 sterilize sites.

(buzz!) if you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance you switch to geico. it's what you do. martha: the iranian president hassan rouhani is expected to make a statement at 1:30 p.m. he has been outspoken about how he feels about this deal saying inspections will not be allowed and spontaneous random inspections certainly would not be allowed. we are hearing about managed
6:45 am
access deals and that is apparently a technicality they are trying to work out. but he will speak at 1:30. no word from our side about whether or when they will make an announcement. but this is an interesting development so we'll continue to stay on it. we'll let you know what else we hear. eric: hillary clinton is set to unveil her idea to shape the nation's economy. you can see the live shot there on the left as we wait for her to speak. she is expected to call for making it easier for women to enter the workforce and boost middle class wages including the idea of profit sharing. the speech comes as some say she is not firing up the base. is hillary boring?
6:46 am
david, you know how bill clinton is on the stump and some critics say hillary is not. she has the bernie sanders issue. how come she hasn't fired up the democratic believes? >> i see things differently. i see the premiere labor union for teachers. american federation of teachers taking a highly unusual step of endorsing hillary early in the campaign. that's unheard of in my experience. but it shows a true progressive organization throwing their weight behind the idea. why don't we have an infrastructure spending bill, a transportation bill. why don't we have public-private partnerships. why are average everyday working americans not experiencing the growth. she is addressing them full on.
6:47 am
today's speech will be outstanding. and what you are seeing is an acceleration of her campaign. she started off very deliberate listening to people, now what she is doing is wolling out her -- is rolling out her policy proposals. i think you will be seeing an embrace by the democratic party to the core of her party. >> it's interesting that hillary is spending so much time in new york considering she should have the base. she relaunched her campaign in new york. but what's going to be interesting in terms of the details of what she says during her speech is whether we learn anything new about who hillary clinton is and what she wants to do for the economy and the country. she has a tendency to take idea from other people. when elizabeth warren wasn't ruled out we had her talking in
6:48 am
terms of wali bert warren would say. a recent poll shows hillary will have a tough time getting democratic voters not you swing states. i think she is a little bit worried. and the fact she is spending so much time in new york where she should already have those voters lined up is a problem for her. eric: you can argue the union is argue in its ownself interest. >> i come from wisconsin. in my hometown of madison bernie sanders showed up. i'm sure i went to high school with half people in the that room. people will show up to hear the outliers and gadflies. if you look at the enthusiasm in my home state of wisconsin which i believe we democrats will take
6:49 am
in this election you see enthusiasm. eric: katie do you buy that? >> i think scott walker has a good chance of winning wisconsin as well. and bernie sanders and all the attention he's getting shows how left the democratic party has become. eric: we'll get back to that as it happens. we'll see if she can fire up some more people with her proposals. martha: legendary actor gregory peck won an oscar for playing lawyer atticus finch in to kill a mocking -- to kill a mocking bird to kill a mockingbird. >> for many you will always be

martha: it's the most highly anticipated novel all times. 55 years after the book "to kill a mockingbird" published in the new book atticus finch is being portrayed differently. what a great job. good to have you here today. you read the book. atticus finch is a bigot he attend a klu klux klan meeting?

he was a segregationist? >> atticus finch is a segregationist. that's a shock to people who grew up loving his character. martha: from what i read he also ended up advocating for african-american voting districts to give them more representation in the vote. >> there is a fictional atticus finch, then there is the real man he was mod. ed on. that's harper lee's father. in real life her father was a segregationist but later in his life he changed his mind and toward the end of his life he advocated for redistricting and wassed a row dpiergt school integration. that period isn't reflected in

that is "to kill a mockingbird" which so many of us have read. martha: what do you think of the sphwhook is it good? >> it's dark. it's disturbing. though it does have flashback scenes that evokes the character wheeze know and love. but it's a very different book. martha: thank you. we'll look forward to reading it. thank you very much. eric: another development to tell you about. hillary clinton set to deliver a speech on the economy any minute now. we'll take you there live and analyze what she has to say. in the republican field it's about to get a little more crowd. wisconsin congressman scott walker set to officially enter the race. brit hume will break this down and tell us about this chances moments from now.

economic policy and those of her husbands. >> reporter: i think republicans will try to highlight that today as they look at the speech as she lays out her economic agenda. bill clinton declared the era of big government is over and hillary clinton is going to talk about more government spending higher taxes to pay for that government spending as you see here her take the podium in a moment acknowledging the crowd. she wants to start an infrastructure bank of public and private sector. get the private sector but get the government more involved in the economy as well. the other issue, as you mentioned is let's not forget bill and hillary clinton made about $12 million from speeches and book income mostly. the big battle for her on the economy is standing up for the middle class and trying to do something about wage stagnation.
7:05 am
well that is a hard case to make when you made $25 million last year. >> and also the fact president clinton, her husband balanced the budget. it sounds she has been tacking more to the left. reaction of bernie sanders success? >> no doubt about it. you are hearing government spending and seeing if she will flesh out details on the tax rate for corporations for individuals once she starts speaking. but you are right. the energy, the momentum, the large crowds have been on the left. bernie sanders is gaining ground in iowa and new hampshire, the two key early states and we are seeing in the policy she is putting together tacking to the left making it harder in the general election. >> that is a play book from ther husband. remember that? >> reporter: absolutely. >> all right ed thank you.
7:06 am
let's bring in brettit hume to talk about this. what is scott walker's position? >> reporter: he has a foot hold in the race. his calling card is he took on the labor unions in wisconsin and won and won that recall election handlely. that got noticed among conservatives and republicans because the hunger in the party today is for a conservative who can produce results. and they look at what happened in washington and they think the republicans in congress have been utterly fickless in trying to halt the march of obama's policy. and they look at walker in wisconsin and see he took on tough opponents in a tough state and won. he is not that exciting a
7:07 am
speaker. interesting question is right now as he enters the race he is trailing jeb bush but has had lead in iowa. what effect does this has on those trying to overtake donald trump? donald trump is much more dangerous for the candidates below walker bush and rubio in the polls than he is for walker bush and rubio. >> that is a great point. he is sucking a lot of oxygen from the room rather people like it or not. and we keep talking about the potentially 17 candidates and everyone is wondering what is going to change that. it could be that donald trump is the thing that changes that. you said interesting things about what you think will unravel for donald trump? >> reporter: donald trump is takes advantage of the
7:08 am
opportunity. he spied an issue that fires up a segment of the republican elector elector electorte and that is immigration. nevermind he supported more democrats over the years with his money and nevermind any of the rest of t. he has the bit in his mouth on this particular issue and he is drawing crowds and more important is he is making news. he is novel, he is colorful he is reckless in a sense and he is interesting and you cannot take your eyes off him. until the novelity wears off he is a problem for the candidates striving to get a little attention among those lower in
7:09 am
the polls. bobby jindel would like air and chris christie and ted cruz for example, who had enormous afection for the same voter who is now turning out for trump is really getting hurt. >> i thought it was interesting that one of the first thing scott walker says in the clip of the video is i am a fighter. that is the thing people keep saying about donald trump and what they are responding to. that he is willing to say what he thinks and he is a fighter. you referenced scott walker is a little unexciting when speaking. >> reporter: he can say i am a fighter and a -- i am a winner and can tick off the list of achievements he has gotten into brawls and came out ahead. jeb bush has some of the same
7:10 am
credentials with his record in florida. he has a solid base of support too. >> the trump affect. you cannot ignore it. thank you, brett. as the iranian president is expected to speak three hours from now there is new fear this morning as we inch closer to the nuclear deal. >> our friend no longer trust trust us. >> lawmakers continue to push for the deal that was expected but some say it could be dead before the diplomats even leave the table. and we will have this: >> big explosion shaking people nearby and knocking a firefighter to the ground. what investigators say caused the blast. and the manhunt underway for el chapo.
7:11 am
a mile long tunnel riding a motorcycle you think he had help? what the escape means for the international war on drugs. >> we are deeply concerned the cartels in mexico who operate in the united states are something that pose a great danger. we are frustrated because we expected him to be extradited to the united states to be in prison here.
7:12 am
7:13 am
7:14 am
>> the west is pushing hard to
7:15 am
seal the nuclear deal with iran. there is word in vianna that an announcement could come today but there are reports of iran illegally buying weapon technology last month while they were at the table. senate whip earlier explaining this is going to be a tough sell: >> our friends no longer trust us and they are looking to other people to help them. saudi arabia is very nervous about what is happening here and they will seek nuclear weapons and perhaps strike up alliances with countries like russia who is not a friend of the united states. >> kt mcfarland is national security analyst and deputy assistant secretary of defense in the reagan administration. good morning. the president of iran is
7:16 am
speaking at 1:30 today. what does that tell us? >> i think it says he is trying to force a deal. you need to look at both sides saying the same thing and having an agreement that is verifiable and enforceable meaning we can go any place any time in iraq with advance notice and see what is there. >> they are saying that is not going to happen. >> the supreme leader the guy who counts said no way you will not be anywhere near our military instillations. where do you think they are keeping the stuff? i have a lot of kids and i know if one has been caught smoke marijuana i want to make sure that i have any time any place inspections. i want to see what is in the room? >> they will not say i'm sorry, mom but you can have managed access to my backpack.
7:17 am
the whole thing with the secretary of defense ash carter, he said this has to be a verifiable deal. there is a new chairman of the joint chief of staffs coming in who is a straight shooter as well. there might be issues within the administration if this is not any time any place inspections >> now they are talking about lifting the arms embargo that has been in place against iran for a long time. so why would we agree to that? >> you are one of the only ones pointing that oat. we started talking about lifting the sanctions relating to the iran nuclear program. there are other sanctions because of their support of terrorism. now the iranians are saying it isn't just the sanctions on the
7:18 am
nuclear program we want you to lift it is everything else. so in other words you lift all of our sanctions and over time we might do the following things. if you have given up all of your leverage against iran on day one what happens if on day three they say we got what we wanted and click along with the nuclear program. >> what is one thing we are getting out of this? >> president obama and secretary john kerry are getting memorized by reaching this deal. >> if that is the legacy what happens 18 months down the road when we have a north korea situation. iran just tested a missile over the sea. people will look back at the two and say you worked this deal and now we have nukes coming out of iran. >> very short sided and maybe
7:19 am
they think, somehow -- i don't think these are evil people but i think the administration convinced themselves even a bad deal with iran the iranian leaders the ayatollahs, will start chanting death to america. >> they just did that on thursday. >> i think it is a naive belief. this isn't about iran getting nukes or inspections or punishment it is what do the other countries in the region thing? because the whole point is to prevent a nuclear arms race in the middle east. the others are looking at the potential deal and saying we don't believe it. we better get our own. so what you can have is a nuclear arms race. as we have seen with the arab spring, those countries long established dictatorships can be toppled and where do the weapons end up?
7:20 am
>> great insight, kt mcfarland. there is a deal with greece as they reach the agreement with the creditors to try to avoid financial ruin. how will that affect your economy at home? we will examine that next. did you see this? she can not talk yet. but this baby's expression says it all getting the glasses allowing her to see her parents for the first time.

7:25 am
joining us now is gary willis. you were up late last night following all of this. they got a deal it worked does this help us? >> i would love to think that little girl can smile for the rest of the year but not sure it is true. they agreed to big pension retirement reform. they were requiring at 61-62 don't think the germans like that because they retire at 67 and the debt repayment fund they will finance by selling some things the greek government owns. this is going too to be approved by wednesday in the greek parliament and we don't know if that can happen. and all of the countries in the eu have to approve it as well. >> what guarantee if there is one, that the parliament will agree? will this is affect your 401-k
7:26 am
every day? >> we were up 200 but i cannot guarantee that will continue because we could continue to have problems. the greek people in favor of a deal and staying in the eu because what happens otherwise is ugly and it could be a humanitarian problem if we cannot get the banks open so people can buy food. >> do you think this one will work? >> i am no expert on greek finances but they have a hard time sticking to what they promise and that is why the eu is so tough on them. they have bailed them out three times in five years. germany has been tough on this country. the france and germany leader overnight and this fellow sat down in a room together and tried to hash this thing out; the three of them.
7:27 am
it went on for 17 hours. thing about this, all of the parties talking and trying to come to an agreement. there was a lot of yelling and screaming at one point. but they came up with something and fingers crossed it sticks >> is this the price of socialism? do you think they will get their finances in order and be like the rest of the european countries? >> it is also italy spain and portug portu portugal. this doesn't end today. >> you hate to see economic pain but you have to live within your means. >> you have to pay your bills. >> we all. martha? folks cleaning up after
7:28 am
tornado and flooding today and more areas could be in trouble. we will show you where. >> and donald trump is showing no signs of slowing down. he attracted thousands in phoenix. but some are asking if his past comments could come back to haunt him? >> when i am out there talking to folks no body asks me about this. his comments have nothing to do with immigration and how we deal with the immigration issue. at ally bank no branches equals great rates. it's a fact. kind of like shopping hungry equals overshopping.
7:29 am
7:30 am
7:31 am
at ally bank no branches equals great rates. it's a fact. kind of like mute buttons equal danger. ...that sound good? not being on this phone call sounds good. it's not muted. was that you jason? it was geoffrey! it was jason. it could've been brenda. it is going to be a tough day for some places weather wise. in the midwest tornado and hail possible in some areas recovering from another round of storms. parts of indiana cleaning up after a twister ripped through there and 25 homes damaged in that storms. and kentucky recovering from flooding with five inches of rain falling in a few hours and
7:32 am
they are expected to get more of that unfortunately today. rough weather out there. donald trump has been drawing big crowds over the weekend weekend. thousands gathering to watch the mogul speak in las vegas and thousands of others in phoenix. he has been garnering attention about illegal immigrants and has been criticized by praised by some. carly fiorina is among them. >> donald trump taps into an anger i hear every day. people are angry that a common sense thing like securing the border or sanctuary cities are extreme things. >> former governor johnson and white house chief of staff to george h. bush is here. governor welcome. you know, carly fiorina talks about the anchor and common
7:33 am
sense and that rocketed trump to the top of the polls. is he on to something? >> i think there is an anger at the obama administration's policy on immigration. it is a disaster and people are discovering the ludicrous nature of the sanctuary cities and the problems you can have with that with what happened in san francisco. there is an anger at this administration and that will be part of the political debate going forward. but i think all of the candidates at one point or the other will be focusing on those kind of issues. i went around a lot this weekend and wherever i go people often engage me in politics and what they want to talk about is whether or not our huge debt is going to put us in a same problem as greece or whether the failures of this administration on foreign policy are going to create terrorism problems in this country. people are talking about this and not talking about donald
7:34 am
trump. >> they are talking about the issues on immigration national security and iran getting the bomb. and you talked about kate steinle story who was killed. and donnie grant, a young man working at ut an illegal immigrant shoots him and steps over his body to get the cigarettes. what do we do about the problem? >> you replace this administration with a republican administration. this administration decided to change america and it is changing america for the worse and i think people are beginning to understand the happy talk a lot of them fell for during the campaigns and nothing more than that; happy talk. it is time for the american public to get serious about the issues. people are seriously worried about the terrorism issue.
7:35 am
they are worried about how complicated and complex the immigration problem has become and scared to death in what the administration has done in alienating our friend and loosing capacity to influence our enemies. >> what about the other republican candidates? trump called it politically incorrect to talk about this. that is why he said he is out in front. look at what investor daily wrote about this and what he said quote after trump made comments about illegals he shot up in the polls. true leadership of judgment of right and wrong and not whip counts to find out which way the wind is blowing. if republicans want to convince voter as they are fit to governor they will have to act faster than this. has he got them thinking about the issues and will the other
7:36 am
republican candidates pick it up? >> every issue you mentioned has been touched on by every republican candidate in their announcement. just because they are not as ob annoying about it as mr. trump the press does latch on. they are talking about the issues in a responsible way. jeb bush scott walker governor christie, senator rubio all of the leading candidates are talking about this issue and will continue to talk about it in a responsible way. you will see a flow as the campaign goes on of understanding develop amongst the voters and they will sort it out. >> we have time and the issues are bubbling up to the surface even though he is the guy with the hair doing it. thank you, governor. >> thanks for having me on. israel and hamas are facing
7:37 am

7:39 am
criminal act here they know what is the consequence. >> reporter: so while things remain delicate i can tell you it is a sharp contrast between last year and today. last year we would be hearing and seeing airstrikes and outgoing rocket launches. he are hearing the blaring of car horns and a once again bustling city. >> thank you very much. he is the most notorious drug lord in the world and he is on the run. the international manhunt underway for el chapo after he escaped in that daring bust out. >> they probably had guards from the state police that escourted him from the abandoned house to wherever why he wanted to go in

7:44 am
the motorcycle was speciality fitted for. we have the president and ceo of dupont and associates today. welcome and good to have you with us. >> martha i am glad to be with you and not so glad because a travesty of justice happened over the weekend. >> how did this happen? >> he had the influence and money to get out of prison. this tunnel took a lot of time to do and someone who knew the blue print of the prison. building the tunnel from the outside under the shower, and up and gone. this is a travesty of justice because this is the biggest drug trafficker in the world. when he was captured in 2014 in february everybody cheered. he was public enemy number number one in the united states. we should have gotten
7:45 am
extradition from mexico but they said we will keep him for 2-300 years. that hasn't happened. >> this was obviously part of a campaign really, in mexico to prove they were getting tough on the drug business and took pride in the fact they took him into custody and put him away. this is going to seriously mark that record, correct? >> absolutely. although the president of mexico yesterday stated it was an afront to mexico. it is more than that. it is really an a front and travesty to the united states. thousands of people have lost their lives because of the heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine el chapo has trafficked into the state. there are seven indictments
7:46 am
across the united states for him. a year and a half ago herald king tarot, the killer of dea special agent in 1985 he was released by mexican officials although he was supposed to spend life in prison. you have the biggest trafficker in drugs in the world escaping from prison and the killer of a dea agent released. i think president obama ought to speak publically and privately to the president of mexico about the damage this does to the control of drugs world wide. >> what does this mean? do you think he was continuing to run the business from prison? what does it mean for the drug
7:47 am
trafficking scenario how he is out? >> he is outside now. so the orders he was given within prison probably can be given where he is now. instead of dismantling his cartel he is back in charge. he is going to be difficult to find. i have not given up all hope. i think we have to use our intelligence world wide because he may not even be in mexico. he has to be caught again and the next time he has to be returned to the united states to face the charges here. >> yeah a lot of people wanted him to serve his time in the united states. they were concerned this could happen and felt the rehis actions were felt on this side of the boarder as well as the other side. do you expect the president to speak out? >> i think the attorney general gave a statement of willingness
7:48 am
to cooperate but i think she should go to mexico and speak to the attorney general of mexico and the president because this is a symbol of corruption and not attending to the duty of guys in prison. when that happens it is a blast to morale for all agents anywhere in the world and puts us at rick. >> it is a sad day in his effort and you have spent a good part of your life fighting against the drug trafficking that goes on. good speaking with you. for a look at what is happening next on "happening now" here is jon scott. >> we have a possible deal on a greek bailout and awaiting word on a final agreement on iran's nuclear program. and a major policy shift from hillary clinton and another
