martha: it's a whole new universe. that's what we learned today. we'll see you back here tomorrow. "happening now" starts right now. jenna: we are awaiting the president's news conference as he begins to sell the nuclear deal with iran to sceptical lawmakers on capitol hill. jon: the controversial agreement poses a challenge at home and with our closest middle east allies israel and saudi arabia. >> reporter: the president will be selling the deal with the american public. there is a lot more here than meets the eye. the white house is on the
8:01 am
offensive and they want to make sure they are reaching out to their patches in the middle east specifically israel. there has been a great deal of concern about this deal which is supposed to keep iran nuclear free for the next decade. but it's been a difficult sell. a lot of people are curious about this inspection circumstance where the coalition has to notify the iranians before conduct an inspection. the concern is they will be able to outflank inspectors with that delay. >> reporter: they would have to have a covert supply system and we'll have the opportunity to examine that from soup to nuts. from mining and mills all the way to the manufacturer of centrifuges. it's also backed up by the international community. it's not just about the united states.
8:02 am
>> you heard the vice president say i'm confident once they understand it they will like what they have in the deal itself. but that's not the viewpoint of former vice president dick cheney who talked to sean hannity last night. he says anyone who thinks this deal with keep iran from being nuclear capable well he's simply ignoring reality. >> i try to understand what it is barack obama thinks he's achieving here. he looks at the world in a different light than anybody else does. but he clearly does not understand or chooses to ignore reality. and that's going to cost dearly. >> reporter: will this cost us all? 60 days in all. and of course later today we'll have a news conference. jon: it will be fascinating to watch this as it develops.
8:03 am
jenna: the president is facing tough sales job with our allies in the middle east. the prime minister benjamin netanyahu vowed to lobby congress to reject this deal. >> reporter: jenna the strong reaction and stern warnings continued today in israel as you can imagine not only among government official and politicians but also in the media. i want to show you have the headlines of two papers worth noting. this one says the world gave in to iran and it has a picture of the ayatollah there. then another one here says "a new middle east." and not exactly in the most positive sense of the term. last night as we know prime
8:04 am
minister been net rr called the agreement in a statement he said it is a stunning historic mistake. he said today that he reviewed the deal and it includes quote-unquote and seward things, in particular a clause requiring inspector hospital suspect violations of the agreement to give a 24-day in the before going in to any site. the present said this is like giving a crime organization that deals in the drugs a 24-day notice before check its drug lab. that's a direct quote from the prime minister. prime minister netanyahu said he will be going to the u.s. to lobby against the agreement. wouldn't senior israeli government official i spoke with earlier said this unified opposition to the deal here in israel. after a tough election this past march he said the question is how rival political fax are join
8:05 am
together to fight the agreement. i asked if the government at this point jenna is in crisis mode and he said let's put it this way it's a dark hour here in israel. jenna: more on this as we get thank you. jon: more information on the crisis in greece. lawmakers in athens are debating the latest bail out offer in the eurozone. the international monetary fund says austerity isn't enough. amy kellogg is watching the latest developments from athens. >> reporter: the imf is saying this is a much worse situation than previously thought. if it takes another bailout the debt ratio will be 200%. the imf is saying this is totally unsustainable.
8:06 am
for greece to get out of this punishing cycle it would need significant debt relief such as waiting to pay back its debt for 30 years. that might help the prime minister alexis tsipras which to an extent feels he fumbled this, played a bad game of poke whether europeans angered them and ended up with this extra tough deal. some unions are striking today which is causing i os in athens -- causing chaos in athens. >> the debt should be canceled. we didn't agree to the debt. we have the date two or three times. the bankers are so greedy they demands our lives our pensions our houses and so on. we said no to this austerity. this is a massacre of social rights. i do blame ourselves who for
8:07 am
several decades have been voaghtd for politicians who have been signing loans in my name, my daughter's name and maybe my grandchildren's name. >> reporter: the greek prime minister also blames on blames olagarks which he says are modern day robber barons. there is some really bad blood between the greeks and the germans. the greeks people the germans have been stingy and unforgiving. one in two german voters doesn't want to support another bailout. it's not a great moment for european unity. but itmate may -- but it may end
8:08 am
up being a decent moment for unity. by and large this country does want to stay in the eu and the euro. we'll know later today. jenna: one cold case is turning red hot as police are set to announce significant developments in the case of these two sisters who vanished 40 years ago from a shopping mall. do you support the iran nuclear agreement? what question would you have for the president. let's go to foxnews.com/happening now and join the conversation.

have been covering. the fast it james holmes is in the hands of the jury. he's accused of murdering people inside the colorado movie theater. police in maryland will be discussing a 40-year-old cold case of these two sister hospital disappeared in 1975 after walking through a mall. investigators identifying a convicted sex offender as a person of interest in the case. jon: let's take you live to south carolina where republican governor scott walker is speaking at a meet and greet. it's his first visit to the early primary state since
8:13 am
entering the race. donald trump takes the lead in one national poll of likely republican voters. welcome to both of you. donald trump in first place at least according to one poll. a lot of people said it couldn't happen. do you have an explanation? >> donald trump does have a strong name recognition among people than is a little bit of that. this is a small part of the electorate. it's something like 17% of the people. that said, the fact that they don't have one of the other candidate overtaking him that's interesting at this point. >> some people suggested some political watchers suggested the
8:14 am
american people have to be careful how they refer to donald trump because if you wind up offending him and sending him into a third-party candidacy. jeb bush has decided to take him on. >> reporter: absolutely. i think donald trump likes to keep americans on their toes with his antics. you see him attacking the entire world for not being harsh enough on immigration strategy. jeb bush is going to be the happy warrior. to contrast the angry tycoon with the the happy warrier that's something voters will see. but if they can't take on donald trump as he rises in the polls then they don't deserve the
8:15 am
white house. jon: is it just name recognition or has he touched a nerve with a lot of his comments? >> he has touched a never with a lot of his comments. they can't make him a martyr or someone that people start feeling sorry for or they think is being treated unfairly by the republican establishment or he's going to get another surge. jon: what about his republican bona fides? >> he's going to capitalize on his rise in the polls. if he doesn't get selected he will turn on every republican primary voter saying who cares they are losers. jon: let's talk about scott walker. we showed hip making that
8:16 am
initial visit to south carolina. he says he's going to run as a core conservative jackie and try to pull voters along with him. how unusual is that approach? >> it's a very strong message when you are talking to the republican base but it remains to be seen if this is something that can work in a general election. saying you are going to win victory without compromise that's fine for wisconsin. but the broader electorate is more diverse than that. he's going to have to broaden out at some point if he wants to attract more people. jon: he's not the flashiest candidate on the republican side. he's not the flashiest but he has substance. he accomplished a huge amount of things in wisconsin for the voters. he's struggling against name recognition. marco rubio donald trump the
8:17 am
entertainer and the bush name. his travel schedule is full. what he will be doing is going around to local constituents and primary voters and telling them his story. if he can sell steady reliable, conservative idea and beat over the style then he will i think you will see his star start to rise. jon: is it a matter of style? if you are not a particularly flashy candidate can you break through with this many in the race? >> he hasn't broken through at all and there aren't that can on the democratic side. it will be very hard to break through in this republican field. that said, scott walker's record when it comes to conservatives will set hip apart. jon: getting into the race late by modern standard, has that hurt him?
8:18 am
>> i don't think it hurt him. it gives him a chance to rise above the din. it's been constant coverage. and i think the american electorate will start to pay attention now. the polls will be going you have and down. if he can establish himself in time for the debate. get his poll numbers up. when you see him on the stage it will be a chance to show his midwestern home grown style is what voters may or may not want. jenna: we should ask all our political panels to impersonate at least one candidate if they want to come on. the head of the fed testifies before congress telling congress about the country's financial
8:19 am
8:22 am
>> was the police department too quick to call it a hoax? >> i don't think so based on the evidence we had at the time. >> more information on that bizarre kidnapping case in california with police refusing to back off the theory it was a hoax even after this suspect was arrested. matthew muller's arrest happened months after the original abduction. when she turned up days later
8:23 am
police accused the couple of stage the kidnapping. dan shore a former prosecutor. dan pool is a criminal defense attorney. if you are the prosecutor in this case. huskins and her boyfriend are the key suspects and the police have called them the perpetrators of a hoax. >> you don't want any statement especially from law enforcement that undermines your main witnesses. the prosecutor will have to lay out the case for the jury. show what evidence ties this defendant to the crime and explain why police originally thought it might be a hoax andlogically talk to them why it's not a hoax. as long as the evidence is laid outlogically. the prosecution can overcome
8:24 am
that. jon: if you are a defense attorney you might be able to make all kinds of hay when these two people who are victims of crime, that their credibility has been undermined by police. >> to answer your previous question twhribs physical evidence as well. it was reported in lax last night the police found some goggles near this gentleman's house they arrested with a blond hair that might match denise huskins. if it does match that's strong physical evidence that supports prosecuting this gentleman and getting a conviction. any police investigation is going to be rife with error. it's a fact that it's hard to criticize an investigation for negligence unless you have got some evidence that the police department did something intentionally or gross recklessness in calling this a
8:25 am
hoax. is there something in a criminal investigative file that suggests there really was a us next this case. police were propagating this hoax theory to possibly lull that suspect to sleep so they could catch him. if that's the case, then denise hurks skins would not have a case against the police department. jon: there were some weird facts here. the couple was reportedly taken captive. she was kidnapped but her boyfriend didn't report the kidnapping for 11 hours. then she turn up 400 miles away in what just happens to be her hometown or the town where her father was living at the time. did the police just go with gut instinct and say there are too many concocted events here for this to be a real kidnapping?
8:26 am
>> it seems like this. you also have unusual ransom demands. $8,500. emails with an audio recording that showed the victim of the kidnapping saying she was okay. there were a lot of facts at that point the police thought it didn't add up. if the evidence is true, they made their decision too soon. another important fact is the kidnapping victim says there were two people who committed this act. so if that's true and this fern, this defendant is one of the kidnappers there is at least wownter person out there. jon: we talked about this case yesterday. the victims are asking for an apology from the vallejo california police department. if that apology were given would that somehow affect the case? why are they not simply apologizing?
8:27 am
>> we don't know what is in that criminal investigative file. i have been on cases like this. i had a teacher arrested for killing her husband unless bakersfield, california. found out a couple weeks later it wasn't her. she wanted to sue the police department for the investigation. we've did extensive research. there is blanket immunity for negligence in an investigation in california. you can only go after the police department if there is intent and recklessness on their part. how do you get that information unless huskins files a lot and subpoena that investigative file. without a subpoena or a lawsuit we won't know what's in that investigative file. jon: the f.b.i. is saying this is a veal kidnapping and the vallejo police are standing by their claim it was a hoax.
8:28 am
8:32 am
a general rsh sateen aged girl crawled from the wreckage of a plane crash. why the flight powered by sunshine got grounded halfway through its around the world journey. jon: a brazen escape of a drug lord from a mexican prison. a closed circuit camera inside el chapo's prison cell. we'll have the latest on the global search for this notorious drug lord. >> reporter: i spoke to an agent who called this not an escape but a coming out party. you have a mile-long tunnel. here the guards watched the most
8:33 am
wanted man in mexico disappear before their very eyes. he walks behind the privacy wall and disappears. he also slipped out of a monitoring bracelet. this is the second time he broke out of prison. the u.s. says they warned mexico this was going to happen. his former bodyguard says the mexican prison had sensors to detect him so he probably paid millions in bribes. his freedom suggests even more violence as the sinaloa cartel expects to retake lost turf and distribution channels. >> it's interesting to see who
8:34 am
defected and who stayed with him and how they play into the system now that he's back in the leadership role. >> reporter: el chapo is not a household word in the u.s. but every is with a third grade education responsible for moving most of the marijuana and cocaine over the border. the triple commission labeled him public enemy number of one joining gangster al capone. nobody knows where he is but his son sent out photo of el chapo drinking beer and flying an airplane as i recall. jenna: we are standing by for the president to hold a news conference on the nuclear agreement with iran. the white house says it will
8:35 am
make the world safer but republican lawmakers and other critics think it will do just the opposite. in an interview yesterday "new york times" columnist tom freedman asked about cheating on this part of the deal. take a listen to the president's response. >> he assured us if we have good mechanisms to soup and sample earth, the stuff has a long half life. my high school physics probably isn't equal to his but it's not that easy to suddenly high potentially radioactive material that's been developed. jenna: joining us now.
8:36 am
the vice president of research for the defense of democracy. nice to have you both back. we talked earlier in the week. now we have a deal. here we are. here is one of the parts of the deal that's of our viewers have questions about. military bases were not part of the deal because as you points out to us before very few of countries would give unfettered access to their military facilities. i'm curious what you think of the president's response about why a little bit of a delay getting into the military bases is okay and we should go ahead and trust the deal. >> i'm shocked by the president's assurances, i'm shocked by all the proponents of this deal who continue to make this argument this is a slam dunk. it actually reminds me of the people who talked about how the iraq war was going to go so well. we have a horrible track record
8:37 am
in trying to prevent countries from going nuclear when they want to do it. if we talk about pakistan and north korea. there is a lot that can go wrong here. the fact we can be pushed back by three weeks or more to gain access to these sites these should be signs there could be very very dangerous events coming. jenna: on the one hand the president says 24/7 access to certain sites. then you hear it could take 24 days or more than 2 some days to get into other sites. what is the truth about inspections as you read it? >> i think it's mixing apples and oranges. all those folks who said the iraq war would be a slam dunk, it's those same people who oppose this nuclear deal. if they got it wrong then i don't have a lot of confidence they are right now. there are two times of inspections. you have facilities that have
8:38 am
been declared, they are under iaea inspection and the joint plan of action which we are operating under now which is stronger under the new agreement. iaea can begin the to those any time it wants daily access forestall declared facilities. the ones you are talking about are the undeclared facility and we had questions by the and it was on a military site. contrary to what the iranians want this agreement allows the for inspections of military sites. jenna: the first inspections on known facilities. here in new york city if a health inspector wants to check our fire alarm systems or child safety wants to come by and check your household. they can show up and knock on your door. can we inspectors show up and have access? >> yes. it's stronger than that. when they are not physically
8:39 am
there, there are electronic monitoring devices. digital cameras taking measurements. if they were to increase from 3% to 5% the iaea would know instantly at declared facilities. jenna: we have seen iran not only attempt to make their own nuclear material they say not for nuclear weapons. we have reports of them working with north korea and russia and shopping around for nuclear material. even if iran follows what deal says will be done can iran go out and buy what they need for a nuclear weapon today? >> it's certainly possible. part of the problem i see with this deal is the number of is rammic revolutionary guard companies, businesses and individual that will be delisted
8:40 am
by the united states and the europeans. these are people who were involved in nuclear procurement the last self years. it earned them the treasury designation. they will now be allowed back on to the system. they are no longer going to be punished for this activity. on top of that the banks will be open to them. the swiss messaging system will be open to them. it will be a a free-for-all for the ioc. jenna: can they have access to a lot of money to buy bad weapons? >> i think the answer to that is no. even under the system we are operating under now as jonathon points out we were already able to identify individual and entities involved in illicit activities. that activity doesn't disappear
8:41 am
it gets better under the agreement. one of the big features in this no one is talking about is a dedicated procurement channel. no other country has that in than i inspection system. wait allows us to do is track imports and exports. anything related to nuclear into the country. so if they import something and it doesn't show up at the address it was supposed to, we are going to know about it. jenna: when i look at viewers' questions it's about trust. this is what the president is going to have to answer today. why should we trust this deal? why should we trust our own leaders and why should we trust the iranians? >> i don't think we need to trust the iranians. we didn't trust more march qaddafi. this is about verification.
8:42 am
that's why the double of inspectors. history shows you don't have to have trust to have an effective agreement. >> we shouldn't trust them. this is a monstrous state sponsor of terrorism. now we are going to give them $100 billion where they will be able to spread that money to terrorists and in another 10 years they will be able to break out with a nuclear weapon. jenna: the president will have to talk about what happens after 10 years when iran can get the weapon. great to have you both. thank you very much. jon: how are you feel being your economic prospects? the white house reverses course on its forecast for economic growth in this country as income equality becomes a hot topic on
8:43 am
8:46 am
jon: let's check out what's ahead in outnumbered. >> reporter: president obama is trying to sell the nuke deal that's even scaring members of his own party. >> hillary clinton's campaign chair reportedly overheard while grocery shopping about media psychosis. >> most millennials said they would quit their jobs if their boss didn't let them text at work. >> what will we do as our kid get older on this subject. jon: thank you both. >> the white house says it sees
8:47 am
growth rising by 2%. this while presidential candidate bernie sanders is getting traction on the campaign trail. leaders from washington are not taking their eyes off the ball. >> i want to talk about economic policies that address the grotesque level of income and wealth inequality in america. and the need to create an economy that works for all of us and not just a handful of billionaires. jenna: the author of a new book "the conservative affair." nice to have you back with us. before we get to that, you have an interesting personal journey. how did you get to being the
8:48 am
president of the group. >> it's non-traditional. i started out in seattle washington to a pretty progressive family. i dropped out of college dropped out kicked out splitting hairs. i went on the road as a musician. i was a musician through my 20s. then i went back to college and started studying economics. if i found what we would consider to be conservative economic policy, growth of free enterprise these pulled 2 billion poor people out of poverty, the on economy that has done that in the history of the world. i thought i have dedicate myself to that. so i can promote the ideas of equality. >> what's your background if you followed the musician from seattle.
8:49 am
what do you think of bernie sanders what he says about the economy. >> i talk about this a lot in the work. bernie sanders is saying that conservatives and republicans and free end prize advocates don't have a heart that they just care about billionaires and lowering their taxes. if you love the poor you have to stop talking about income inequality and start talking about opportunity equality. if you do what bernie sanders says is progressive elite ideas that people who are rich and left wing have. jenna: talk about the way you can give equal opportunity. >> you have to focus on work. i think it's important to have a safety net before it should only be for the poor and always be with work and all of our policies should be oriented toward counting every person as
8:50 am
an assess, not a liability. there are stories about people who lifted themselves up because of these policies. jenna: do you see conservatives hitting the right note? >> a lot of them are. in 2016 you have the top tier candidates all of them are beating each other you have shying has better policies for helping the poor. all of their policies are grow can the economy from the bottom up. not saying everybody has to go to college. but we need more good jobs. jenna: you have hope? >> i'm very optimistic. i'll tell you. jenna: it's great to have you
