12:00 pm
awe, and sadness. >> would you work for a weekend with no bay, the beast tweets, anything to keep the company going. >> kobe writes, no, i work to support myself and my family. have a great weekend. i'm gretchen. here's shep. >> house republicans in turmoil over search for a speaker, still in both wings of the g.o.p. they're pushing for one man. >> if paul ryan runs clearly he would be somebody that i would support. i think paul ryan is the right person to do this. >> i think paul ryan right now has the clout, the stature he could bring sides together. >> paul ryan. of course he said over and over again he will not run for speaker. maybe he'll reconsider. maybe he won't. here's where we stand. those who may want the job don't have enough support, and those who may have enough support don't seem to want the job. in moments the "fox news sunday" host chris wallace on what is ahead. let's get to it.
12:01 pm
finally it's friday. first on the fox news deck, the man many republicans say two bring the divided party together is not good enough for some on the far right. in some the tea-party inspired hardliner camp tell or capitol hill producer said they're starting a fire ryan campaign. another sign of the deep divisions and distrust between conservatives in congress and the party's more moderate establishment. yesterday's shocking announcement from boehner's heir apparent kevin mccarthy who said he is not the man for the job. the ironnity could mean that speaker boehner sticks around even longer since no candidates appear to have enough to get the required 218 votes. republican leaders practically begging congressman ryan to run for speaker. he is repeatedly said he does not want the job. but sources tell fox news he is now reconsidering. though some on the right are
12:02 pm
giving him a pass, others in the conservative block are blasting congressman ryan for being too close to the party's establishment. they're criticizing paul ryan's past support for giving illegal immigrants a path to citizenship what the right whining inaccurately calls am in the -- amnesty. now those in the freedom caucus are getting slammed. one said they're not going to volt for anyone to matter who it is. we have to end this. we look absolutely crazy. and as much as all this is political theater it has real consequences to all of 0 us. congress is weeks away from raising the borrowing limit. that could cause economic chaos and a stock market plunge. some conservatives say they'll go along with racing the borrowing limits only itch it includes serious cuts to social security and medicare.
12:03 pm
and mike emanuel is on capitol hill. any sign paul ryan will do what many call the worst job in washington. >> his spokesman seems to be buying paul ryan some time and space to think about it, telling us, quote, chairman ryan appreciates the support he is getting from colleagues but is still not running for speaker. ryan told us this afternoon he had nothing more to add but his colleagues are clearly hoping he will have a change of heart. >> i believe he is going home to soul soap with his family whether or not -- soul search with this family to whether he can take this job, a job he doesn't want but its seeking him. >> and darryl isil said he will rate on ryan. it's interesting that house democrats are not attacking republicans now. >> when they choose their nominee for the floor, and they elect a speaker, we'll be happy to work in a bipartisan way to
12:04 pm
find common ground. it's up to them. it's not up to us. >> so taking a wait and see approach. also noting that there is still a speaker on duty, shep. >> what about the guys already running? >> well, shep, there's a difference of opinion there. you have house overnight ceremony jason chaffetz, who is saying he'll step aside for ryan. >> i would not run against paul ryan. try to be as clear as i can. if paul ryan gets in the race, would support paul ryan and i hope he would do it. >> however, lesser known congressmen daniel webster from florida sounds like he is planning to run no matter what. >> i'm not running against anybody. i'm not running against a personality or name. i'm just running for that set of principles that says we are going to have principle-based, member-driven congress. >> if ryan decides to get in the may still deal with a split in the republican conference if webster runs as an alternative. >> mike emanuel on the hill. let's turn 0 chris wallace host
12:05 pm
of "fox news sunday." chris, is it possible they're waiting to make sure paul ryan has the votes before they good ahead and say that paul ryan is a candidate, or is it more that paul ryan sees this as the awful job it's been described as and doesn't want it? >> well, that's certainly true, he doesn't want this job, and i think that is the primary issue here. you have to remember that it was just yesterday morning that he was working on his nomination speech for kevin mccarthy to be the house speaker, and here we are 27 hours later, and suddenly people are talking about him being the house speaker. so he has to process that. he doesn't want the job. he wants to be -- he is a policy wonk and wants to be leading policy reform on issues like taxes and the budget and entitlements. you can't do that as speaker. you do that as the chairman of the house ways and means committee. there are a couple of aspects to it that i think are not very appealings. it's herding cats, listening to
12:06 pm
all the complaints from house members and you're on the road all the time. ryan is a devoted family man. he has three small kids. he likes to good deer hunting in the fall. bow and arrow shooting deer. this isn't what he wants to do for a living. whether he is forced to do it. but there's one other thing. there are members of the house freedom caucus, the hardlinerses, who are already saying they're not happy with ryan. so why take the job if you don't know that you have a working coalition of 218 republicans? otherwise you're just being set up to fail again. >> i keep hearing that -- i'm hearing everything you just said but also he has aspirations for the presidency. this stuff will grind you like sausage. >> i'm not sure that he is -- i don't think he is one of those politickers, the vast majority of them in washington, who looks at a mirror and sees a potential
12:07 pm
president. if he wanted to be president he would have run this time. he was at the vice-presidential running meat to mitt romney in 2012. he is much more about policy, would be perfectly happy if he were never president. as i say, his dream job was to be the chairman of the house ways and means committee in an administration he road like to serve as treasury secretary. so i don't think he hungers for the top job. he hungers to get down into the weeds and get into the crunching numbers and to actually accomplish something. >> how much of this freedom caucus as they call themselves -- i don't know, freedom caucus -- how much of this is about these representatives who were elected by the constituency who rather than representing are just sort of reflecting the, hell, no, idea of them all if heard someone yesterday, trent lott, call it the hell no caucus. they're the hell no. the answer to everything is not no, but hell no. and if those 40 votes stay together, hell, nothing is going to happen.
12:08 pm
>> but you're making it sound like there's a difference between taking that position and representing their constituents. that's what they think they're constituents want them to do, and it's not hell no -- >> until they get it. >> but shep it's their feeling there's been a defeatist attitude among house leaderes, that ever since 2011, 2012, that the republican leaders figure, we can't beat the democratic fill buster in the senate. we can't beat a democratic president. so let's just give up. and they may be a recognition ot about what the numbers are, but i think they certainly feel, whether it's boehner or mccarthy, they haven't taken an aggressive enough position in taking on not democrats and a democratic president in the white house. >> that could be the thinking. i wonder if the reality is something more like this, this aquestion, not a statement. is it possible that these leaders of the republican party have gone out at election time and told the people who are going to be pulling the lever on
12:09 pm
election day, we will defunded, we will get rid of obamacare. when they know full well they're not going to do that. they're going to say it to try to get elected and then later just not going to do it. there's sort of a pattern of this and then eventually you get people so angry they dessert you. so under that sort of scenario, if you think that is the case, couldn't they be blamed for this themselves in you just created the beast which is devouring you. >> i think there's certainly a lot of validity to that argument. in 2010, after president obama's sweeping victory in 2008 and then the jamming without a single republican vote of obamacare down the throats of the republicans, you heard republican leaders saying, elect a republican house and we'll change things. they got 63 more republicans, huge majority. they weren't able to change things. they said just give us the senate no 2014. they gave them the senate. they still weren't able to change things.
12:10 pm
so did republicans overpromise and are a lot of the voters at home who thought, well, if we just put them in charge of congress, they're going to be able to change things, are they frustrated and now turning on the leaders who made these promises? absolutely. >> you wonder what the end game is here. you can't see it. not like you go, here in the normal course of events here's what happens. there's no -- i don't see a playbook for this. i'd love to mow how this movie is going to end. i'm tired of it. >> well, actually, the host of the sun day show i'm enjoying and it it's good business for sunday. i don't know how it's going to end. some i'm not sure even if paul ryan -- that's the easy ending, paul ryan takes the job. i'm not sure he will be anymore in control of this caucus than anybody else will be. can i ask you one -- >> the producerrer is going to chop my head off. >> i just -- you spanked as a child? >> what? >> were you spanked as a child?
12:11 pm
>> actually, yes, yes. it worked out with me. now know what your parents should have done anyway sheave hasn't that hand and found multiple places on you body for and it maybe we wouldn't have this disaster i'm looking at, and monster. >> ole miss. what happened -- >> we went to florida and got rolled. that's what happened. went to florida and got rolled. and this weekend we'll play gain and the next one and if we win out, we control our own destiny you. win thundershowers win the whole thing and go into the playoffs itch if you don't, you don't. say something nsa use. >> would have helped to win in florida. >> would help if you could win every single game but then you'd become jaded and feel entitled like someone i know in washington. >> do you know how happy i was when i saw the score ons morning? well, go ahead and tell us, chris. >> i was happy. >> you're a hater. >> i couldn't stay up that late so when i saw you had just gotten beaten by florida, badly.
12:12 pm
>> we were beaten. they had a good game plan. we turned the ball over early and it was loud and they played fantastic football. showed their win over tennessee wasn't a fluke and now we'll see what florida can do. a lot of fun if we can win and then meet them in the sec championship in atlanta. i'm not scared. i'm a fan win or lose. a fan every day of my life. you on the other hand are hater. how is that feeling? >> well, only of you, not of ole miss. i like ole miss. >> no, you don't. >> that's not true. >> that's not true. you don't. >> i don't? >> some day, goings and stuff. this week chris will have exclusive interviews with jim jordan and the house speaker and former speaker, newt grissom boss equals the boss wins. wow!

12:16 pm
against isis. others deserted or died or got captured, and the four or five who were left gave half their weapons to the enemy. congress gave the pentagon half a billion of your dollars. so far no word from president obama but officials say the united states will shift to what they called a scaled-back approach that involves giving weapons -- yes, again -- giving weapons to establish rebel groups in kurdish forces and have them coordinate the air strike is. weapons to the rebels again. anybody have a memory of this? the "new york times" report thursday training for that will tapes at a small camp in turkey. not funny, of course. all very memorable. here on our wall, look at what a miss this is. the kurds have made progress. they have this green area in the top you heard about them. the good fighter, protect their own territory but not coming down here. they have been fighting with turkey's government for decades on the other side of the border,
12:17 pm
always been a clash there turkey doesn't get along with russia, it's joined the battle in a big way, as an ally of the measure ad murder you dictator of the government in syria, bashar al-assad. the u.s. called for president assad to step down. he has strained relations with turkey and russia. yet all sides seem to share a common enemy in isis. then there's iran. it's an ally, of course, of syria and russia and its leaders claim to hate america. iran is also helping fight against isis. but officials there today say the terrorist killed one of iran's top generals near the syrian city of ahelp pa. he -- aleppo. he was advising syrian forces and greg palkot is reporting a source told him the russian bombing campaign has been strengthening isis by targeting reb forces. the russians are not against isis as much as they are for bashar al-assad because they
12:18 pm
have to keep assad stood up so nobody else can take the ground the russians want it or at least the influence. jamly is a russian intelligence analyst and special contributor. helping aleppo helped them? is that it true? >> i feel like we're being outreaganned by putin. >> what would you do? >> i don't. >> send ground forces in. >> i don't think you want to escalate. >> to what. >> we have three course of action. one, status quo. two arm men and train, and, three, is cut bait and run. i have the to say i think that obama made the right decision by cutting here. simply because we don't want to be dragged into escalation by defending the fsa. >> the free syrian army. the ones who have been fighting against assad. actually we're doing such a good job that looked for a few minutes like assad was about to fall. >> i think so. the russians -- i worked against the russians in the counterintelligence capacity,
12:19 pm
and i look at the russians and say them, they see everything from the prism of america being the main enemy. >> what was the calculation or was there one? was the calculation that, oh, well, this will bring the americans in? set up a two-siding in? a proxy situation? >> what putin did in a masterful stroke was relatively limited tactical resources is insert into the conversation the dialogue about what happens in syria next. we know isil will collapse. whether assad stays or goes putin has a table help is at the big boy table. he outreaganned us, a brilliant move. >> maybe brilliant for today or tomorrow but isn't he now in the middle of a protracted situation he will find himself hard getting out of. >> people say that. >> i'm curious. >> it's a logical assumption. but the question now is, is he going to bring ground forces? when he is doing bombing the
12:20 pm
cruise missiles -- launchedder more cruise missiles in the first golf war than he has. i don't think he is necessarily bogging himself down. he is in a position of strength to negotiate with us. >> and how do we regain that position of strength? >> i think that when you deal with the russians, if we are in a position we're racketing and saying what can we do the have lost. we have to think two or three stepson hem. look outside of syria. there's a lot of stuff happen in bell -- belarus. they're trying to turn arm from russia. putin is clearly someone who wants to return to a cold war approach and expand, and we have to counter that, and you have to think two oar three steps ahead of him. >> glad it's not me. mighty difficult thing going on over there. four years of civil war. >> it is. a horrible -- >> the last thing you want to do is good net a civil war and others step in. and there putin is. i nice to talk to you.
12:21 pm
>> the markets on the longest winning streak we have seen this entire year and it's been in the green all day, and yet, it's in the green but ever so barely. there's word of warning about what could lie ahead. that's coming up from the fox news deck. stay with us. real cheese people know how to pack uber flavor into ultra thin. sargento ultra thin slices, the same taste, just thinner and 45 calories a slice. that's 45 reasons to layer, fold, mix, match, beg, stack, sneak, peek, tease, taunt, like, love. because real cheese people bite with abandon. hold the sacrifice, no compromise. sargento ultra thin slices, we're real cheese people.

12:25 pm
no cows here. just a fighter jet providing air coverage during a military drill. this was the last day of the training exercise. clearly they have milked and eaten all of the four-legers. philippines and u.s. officials hold the drill every year. we're told more than 600 ma finals the united states and philippines took part and an equal number of cows. 15% chance -- oh -- of rain this weekend. might sound okay, 14% chance of your team win thing super bowl sounds great. so how would you feel bat 15% chance of another recession? those are the odds economists set for next year in a bloomberg century they. they gave the economy a one in stenchance for falling into negative growth for two quart ors in a row. stocks have been up for most of the session from about 1:00 this afternoon until maybe 2:30 eastern time. we were just dipping into the red. market taking a built of a
12:26 pm
breather after surging more than 6% over the past couple of weeks. i didn't realize, this is the longest upstreak in a long time. >> it is indeed because you, probably like many, are thinking about the thousand point drop we saw in august, and ever since that happened there's been so much a fear and just a sign that volatility is back. i mean, that was even bigger than the nash crash. a lot of in -- the flash crash. investors worried. when is the next shoe to drop. >> why are they saying we have a one in seven chance on recession. >> the idea -- we talked about this before -- is china. more half of the fortune 500 companies have really big significant exposures to asia. we're all interconnected. every single company does business with every part of the globe, and there's concern the u.s. is doing okay. but that's not the case everywhere. so there's a lot of people saying that's going to pressure. but there's a lot of bright spots we should talk about. corporate america has a record
12:27 pm
amount of cash. apple has 178 billion -- billion -- dollars on the balance sheet so they can invest and work on things like self-driving cars, they can buy other companies. we still have the best intellectual property right outside. you come here and start a company, it's protected, unlike other parts of the world. so there's reason to be hopeful but just the volatility coming back, making people anxious. >> thank you. i think. police searching for two suspects everybody the stabbing of a u.s. airman, spencer stone, the american who helped stop the attack on a friend -- french train. the president is in oregon today, eight days after the mass shooting at the community college there. he is set to meet private live with survivors and relatives of victims. it comes as we get word of his new plan gun control. that will top the news at the bottom of the hour right after this.

factor in this morning's violence. >> trace gallagher, thank you. president obama is set to meet with the families of the victims of the umpqua community college shooting in roseburg, oregon. students there and a teacher died when a gunman opened fire on them before killing him. the meeting with the president is private. the white house said the president's visit ills not about politics at all. even though after the shooting president obama said it was, quote, something we should politicize. hundreds of protesters gathering in that oregon town. they say air they're concerned about the sort of gun laws and restrictions the president might push in the wake of this tragedy. now there's word the obama administration is considering going around congress to change the rules. accord to go the report of the "washington post" newspaper, president is considering using executive authority to redefine who is a gun dealer by law.
12:37 pm

particular. you saw them on the grinnie surveillance video. they're described as asian and last seen wearing white t-shirts and fleeing the scene along with several other people in a dark toyota camry. now, police say the incident was fueled by alcohol. may have involved a woman that stone was trying to protect. and that there's no indication stone's assailant knew who he was. no link to terrorism, they say. well, despite the publicity and a good number of witnesses, shepard no suspects have been identified by name, and also it's interesting to note no one besides airman stone was admitted to the hospital for treatment. so the manhunt opportunities. >> thank you. somebody called matt damon, nasa has a new plan to get people to mars. science super star on why it may be necessary for humanity's survival. we live in a pick and choose world.

>> pack some snacks. man kind is going to mars. nasa laying out plans to send humans to the red planet, announcing in the next few decade, quote, nasa will take steps towards establishing a sustainable human presenceon earth, not just to visit but to stay on mars. the space agency previously reported it wanted to send astronauts to or around mars by the 2030s. the new report out today indicates the agency is still aiming for exactly that. but putting people on mars is obviously a lot more complicated than previous jaunts to the mon. the mom is -- moon is closer to the earth. this is the way to mars.
12:47 pm
on a good day, this agood day's walk to mars. it is more than 30 million miles away, and that is on a good day. you can barely even -- well you can barely see it from here. of course the trip would be farther than that after factors in orbits around the sun and weird things like that. scientist say it will take months and months to get there and we have to develop a system for astronauts to breathe and eat. nasa announced the stoffer of evidence that appears to show liquid water flows on the planet when the place warms up. this despite enormous bills the mission is sure to rack up. seems to be a lot of public support at the moment. the top film at the box office right now is "the martian" about a botched mission to the red planet. it's re-igniting public interest in space. we have a athlete let cal physicist here, we can't even fund the debt.
12:48 pm
we can't get congress to agree on which bathroom to use. this is an exciting looking project. is it do-able? >> well, matt damon, watch out. mars, here we come. okay? nasa used to be called the agency to nowhere. now mars is in its sights and just realize that people comparing this to kennedy's speech, saying we should good to the moon. historians may say this set off the journey to the red planet. >> this suggests we might not only go there but hang out there and groups of people might live there. in the past, step one was to get the booster rocket ready, the sls booster sprocket the space capsule, orion. we'll test in 2018. step two is to land on an asteroid and bring back pieces of rock, and step three is boots on the ground within 20 years or so. >> so, i read maybe 2030, 2035.
12:49 pm
>> that's right. that's the neighborhood we're talking about. again, this is a step-by-step proposal, not a speculative thing. we're talking about looking at what technologies are necessary, can we do it, and eventually how much it's going to cost. >> do we have the capability? >> we have the capability today. we can use off the shop technology. this capsule would weigh 30 times more than the largest robotic mission to mars. we can do it. there's no law of physics preventing it. it's just a question of engineering. >> you mentioned the testing of the rocket that gets you to asteroid. then how to mars. >> the basic booster rocket would be the same, the sls, it will be tested in a few years time. we hope to go around the moon with it. go around the moon, get practice again going back to the moon. then land on an asteroid, and then on a separate mission go all the way to mars.
12:50 pm
>> who knew. i thought sls was just a hotel in south beach. had no idea. they have a very nice outdoor party area. once you get there do you get to come home? >> not a one-way ticket. some people said if there's lick wade water on mars perhaps they're wells we can dig and we can get rocket fuel. rocket fuel from these underground wells. and so some people are saying that in jest. maybe we can send our astronauts on a one-way mission to mars. the mine the water for rocket fuel and use that for the return voyage. >> well, that's quite an if, isn't it. >> that's right. >> nice to see you. if it happens would you go with matt damon? >> are you kidding in you have to put your life on the line. there's something called the mars jinx. and that is rough lay third of our missions to mars never get there. >> i was aware of the cover of sports illustrated jinx but not

aware of this other thing. that's interesting. nice to see you. mars is going to be awesome, especially in the spring. clear skies over south carolina thankfully but now in the threat of more storms looming. an update on the flood area coming up. it's a fact. kind of like ordering wine equals pretending to know wine. pinot noir, which means peanut of the night. that gives you better taste and better nutrition in so many varieties. classic. cage free. and organic. only eggland's best. better taste. better nutrition. better eggs.

ryan has more. never heard of anything like this. >> most people haven't. this is something we have been seeing for more than a week now in two states, and accord together report offering "usa today," 11 trillion-gallons of water fell. to put that in context, 11 trillion gallons would fill the rose bowl more than 130,000 times. olympic size swimming pools would fill more 16.6 million of them. you stretched out the pools it would circle the earth 65 times. a lot of moisture. >> a lot of wayne. >> this is a horseshoe falls, niagra falls. it would take more than 212 days for that amount of water to go over horseshoe fall. 850 days for the american falls and people in california, the opposite of south carolina here, nasa says it would take 11 trillion gallons of water for the state to of are recover from the drought. >> that would have have to sink.

on this day in 1992 a ball of fire fell to earth from outer space and landed on a chevy malibu. there was nobody in the car, thankfully, whether meteorite hit. but thousands of people from several states reported seeing the green ball of fire shooting across the sky. scientist said it came all the way from an asteroid belt between jupiter and mars before landing in a driveway in upstate new york. an 18-year-old woman says she heard the crash from inside her home and soon realized the car somebody apparently had just given her now had a big hole in it the size of a bowling ball. giving the teenager the near impossible task of explaining to her parents what really happened to her chevy. 23 years ago.

i swear, an asteroid hit it. when news breaks out we'll break in. might have been as asteroid, mom. "your world" is coming up. see you if news breaks out. by now you have seen this lady, a colombian woman who has taken the internet by storm. was she a plant or a surprise for donald trump. that lady is here.
