mail honoring the rock legend, entering ten stamps featuring images of david bowie, and they go on sale in march. if you still use stamps. >> so the first week is done, you survived. >> do i get to come back? >> no one got injured, right? >> no, not that i know. >> have a great weekend, everybody. >> jenna: fox news alert, and another milestone for president trump, his first white house meeting with a foreign leader, set to begin a bottom hourm now. hell over buddy, i'm jenna lee. >> jon: i'm jon stt, happy friday, president trump and prime minister may will then hold a joint news conference at the white house, that is set for 1:00 p.m. eastern time. and we are following more development on the international front, is we learn that president trump will speak by phone tomorrow with russian president vladimir putin. and with german chancellor angela merkel, and french president lalonde. this on the heels of widening rift with our neighbor to the
8:01 am
south, mexico, over a dispute about mr. trump's border wall. chief white house correspondent john roberts is keeping up with all of this, he is live on the north laundry now. >> just fielding some phone calls. there is so much happening today, and basically all week with his white house, and any one of those things that you mentioned would've been a full day of news, but covering this place, particularly in this first week has been kind of like trying to soak up the ocean with a sponge. a lot of people are wondering what the relationship will be like between president trump and the uk prime minister, theresa may. will it be a warm relationship, the sort that ronald weight reagan had with margaret thatcher, or could there be some sharp edges? should certainly theresa may is looking for a friend in the oval office with brexit coming up in a couple of years, she wants strong bilateral relationship with the united states, wants strong trade agreements as well, but she has also told the british parliament that she will speak frankly with president trump. the president was a big supporter of brexit, he wants a
8:02 am
strong bilateral relationship with britain, wants to lay the groundwork for a bilateral trade deal, when the uk leaves the eu, and that will be in 2016. so we will see how all of that unfolds, as the white house is prepared for theresa may's entrance here, which should come in probably the next 45, 50 minutes or so. tomorrow the president is going to speak with russian president vladimir putin, and of course there will be a lot on the table for that particular phone call, dealing with the isis, dealing with syria, what is going on in the ukraine and his annexation of the crimea. there is also an executive order being prepared here at the white house regarding russian sanctions, we don't yet know what the content of that is, but if you listen to kellyanne conway on fox and friendshis morning lifting at least some sanctions on russia may be in the offing. here she is from this morning. >> some have suggested that the sanctions from the previous administration are going to be on the table right away. what could you tell us about the agenda? >> all of that is under consideration and certainly, in
8:03 am
addition to improving relations with different foreign leaders around the. and it it's another nation that has considerable resources, we if they wish to join together with the u.s. a to try to defeat and eradicate radical islamic terrorism, then we are listenin listening. >> the president also continuing his feud with mexican president, tweeting out this morning, "mexico has taken advantage of the u.s. for long enough. massive trade deficits & little help on the very weak border must change, now!" so far no response from pena nieto. also today, the president is going to sign the extreme vetting order, we thought he would do it yesterday, we thought then he would do it tomorrow, looks like he is going to do it today. among other things, it would suspend visa entries from countries that are hotbeds of terrorism, temporarily declare a 120 day moratorium on taking in refugees, put in place and indefinite suspension of refugees from syria, and a develop ace extreme vetting
8:04 am
process for future immigrants. he also goes over to the pentagon this afternoon and signs a couple of executive orders dealing with military readiness. like i said, trying to soak up the ocean with a sponge. >> jon: it's been a busy week at that white house behind you. john roberts, thank you. >> jenna: we want to focus now on an issue that is always on our minds, and that is jobs in the economy, and it's a recurring theme in sean hannity's cable exclusive interview last night with president trump. >> explain by getting rid of regulation, energy independence, jobs that will be created, a 15% from the highest corporate tax rate to the lowest corporate tax rate in the industrialized worl world, how does that help and impact those people i talk about all the time? >> hugely. we will have jobs, good jobs. >> and trade deals, you got rid of tpp. do you want all bilateral trade agreement is -- >> here's a problem, not number one they didn't do anything on
8:05 am
currency devaluation, which is a killer for our country, because we don't do it and everybody else does. >> but do you want bilateral? >> absolutely. and you know what, if a deal doesn't work out we terminate the deal. when you get into the mosh pit, i call it, where you have all these countries together, you can't get out of the deal. and you take the lowest denominator, in other words you have countries that don't treat us well, they are in there. we want a deal with the ones that treat us well, and if they don't treat while we terminate or give him a 30 day notice of termination, andn they come back and they want to renegotiate during that 30 days and we get a better deal. >> jenna: let's look talk with the editor at "the wall street journal," they talk a lot about the economy in different ways, but yet president trump's answers all came back to jobs. what do you think that means for policy? >> there is a kind of conundrum there between some of the pro-business actions at some companies might want the president to take in some of the more populist, return the jobs to america. but i think donald trump is
8:06 am
trying to say to companies and to the voters who elected him, i'm going to make it so that you don't want to have jobs anywhere else. i'm going to take away the bad regulations, i'm going to take away the high taxes, i'm going to make it so that you do want to invest in america, so take away the jobs elsewhere. >> jenna: one of the things that mr. trump announced today initiative with manufacturing, meeting with all sorts of different manufacturing companies. we don't know what the end result will be, but the simple announcement of continuing those meetings, talk to us again about the tension between the companies that you mention, the policies, and trying to get this in place. it's because of the list that came out with this council of advisors is pretty much -- >> pity much the same list that he met with monday, and all those guys sat down from dell, camels, paper companies, across section of industries, all names that we know, big companies in different industries in america, and so what we learned after that meeting is they don't exactly share the same ideas
8:07 am
about what the president could do, because the businesses have different needs. you also have the challenge of domestic focused production, but also multinational companies based in the u.s. trying to do business for example in china, were you have to have production and a presence there if you really want to be successful. >> jenna: what do you think of the symbolism, simply the out leap outreach to corporate america? >> very powerful, i think we know that during the obama years there wasn't as close a relationship between the white house and business, also obama came in at a very different time after the collapse in the crisis, so a very different kind of relationship. trump is being the businessman that everybody thought he would be when they voted for him, all of his supporters, and he's bringing those connections and he's bringing those interests into the white house. he did it from the first full business day. >> jenna: what can he do single-handedly, and what does he need congress to do? >> that is the tricky part for the president and he is still try to work that out. but we have seen these executive orders coming every day, trying to fulfill those campaign promises. so there are some things he can
8:08 am
do, he can have an evaluation of the regulations and start to have his administration walked back some of those regulations. some of those things will take time, some of those things he can do much more quickly. but in terms of taxes, some of the big deals, he's going to have to wk with congress to get taxes cnge. >> jenna: we all remind ourselves it is week o and there are many weeks to compare it i want to ask you about the data point that we got today, because as we are watching there is so much appropriate focus on the white house, we are still getting readings on the economy, and one of the readings we got today is about economic growth and let show our viewers. 1.9% is the reading, and often we will get several other readings to get the final number. but glenn, it is my understanding that you normally need a number around 2.5% to signify job growth at all. so what do you think that number tells us just about the state of the american economy as it stands? >> itself shows us that we have a stubborn 2% cap on our growth levels and stubborn and trump has said that he wants to be double that. there's two ways to look at it, if you are the white house you are going to say that his failed
8:09 am
economic policies of the past and this is why i need congress and everyone else to go along with my plan for growth in this country. so i think that is how you will see the position there. but the truth is, it also creates a challenge. trying to get that growth, there is not the underlying support yet in the economy to deliver. >> jenna: interesting metaphor he used, president trump, the mosh pit for trade policy, which actually brings to mind an image that you say okay, mosh pit, i'm not sure exactly that's where i want to do trade deals. his focus on bilateral trade deals, what does that mean for us and the bottom line for the american consumer? >> that is a huge shift in u.s. policy. the point that the president is making there is if i do a one-on-one deal i have more leverage. and i have the opportunity to say, do what you need to do to support america and we will do what we do to reciprocate. but if that deal doesn't work out to be fair, i can walk away. he is saying it's harder to walk away from something like tpp, where if there are all these multinational entanglements. >> jenna: what to think about that?
8:10 am
it seems to be a shift in the way that we think about trade as part of foreign policy. some suggest that trade policy is really about geopolitics and getting countries to go along with us, but it seems that president trump is saying no, it's about jobs, going full-circle, jobs at the center. >> that is absolutely right. so the argument for tpp, which some presidents, someot republicans headed braised early on, said look, this is our ability to have a greater influence politically in asia, in order to help have our global ambitions and our global needs be addressed in that kind of around. we ceded that power potentially to china, who can put together a big multilateral deal without us. and that is the concern. where is donald trump is saying look, the concern is really in my mind about how we get a good deal for this country that doesn't cause an incentive for jobs to go somewhere else. >> jenna: interesting, two different ways of looking at the very same policy and we will see the results. great to have you. >> jon: well, it's another busy day at the white house, president trump about to meet with britain's prime minister,
8:11 am
theresa may, topping the agenda, hammering out a new trade deal ahead of britain's departure from the european union. the president does not have a commerce secretary at, but he says that won't be a problem. >> i would like to have my commerce secretary, wilbur, approved, because i hear he did it fantastically well, but they are not quick with a pen on signing these people. i don't have my commerce secretary and they want to talk trade. so i will have to handle it myself. and i also found that i had a sister that i didn't know about because i'm adopted. that was me. it was really exciting to find myself in someone else.
8:13 am
8:14 am
and i have a little vegan so wow, you are busy. wouldn't it be great if you had investments that worked as hard as you do? yeah. introducing essential portfolios. the automated investing solution that lets you focus on your life. >> jenna: a fox news alert, awaiting the arrival of british prime minister theresa may at the white house, she will be the first foreign leader to meet with president trump in the oval office, and yesterday at the g.o.p. retreat, the prime minister praise republicans for the victory in november and sent a strong message to the new administration, do not neglect the long-standing relationship between the united kingdom and america. >> as we renew the promise of our nation to make them stronger
8:15 am
at home, in the words of president reagan, as the sleeping giant stairs, so let us renew the relationship that can lead the world toward the promise of freedom and prosperity marked out in parchment by those ordinary citizens 240 years ago. >> jenna: earlier the prime minister laid a wreath at the tomb of the unknowns at arlington cemetery in a show of solidarity with the united states. joining joining us now is the former white house national security staff are and are both president bush and president obama and a fox news contributor, and tom rogan's informant foreign policy columnist. tom has the accent that fits the moment. it's appropriate. >> i understand. i seed the time. >> jenna: tom, every administration tries to reset the relationship with those abroad, start a new if you will in one way or another. of course we saw the infamous
8:16 am
now reset button between secretary clinton and her russian counterpart, we have video of that bread whado you think is key to resetting this relationship with a uk? >> well, not only do i have the accent, i have u.s. citizenship, so i have the best of both worlds. look, i think the key here is not necessarily a reset. it's the idea that through the existing parameters of the relationship, cooperation in the intelligence sphere, military cooperation, diplomatic cooperation, trading relationship, that you double down on all those areas and expand. so specifically i think you will see this big push on the free-trade agreement, why that is different than for example mexico and china is that trade between the united kingdom and the united states is high-value trade, it is not in things like corn, it is high-technology products. so there is going to be this push on that front, and then i think the reason these two leaders like each other is that they both get the intelligence briefing that shows the cooperation and how it helps
8:17 am
each nation and they sort of think, trump especially learning this, why would i not double down? >> jenna: what do you think about that, julie? it's not so much a reset but a reaffirming of the established relationship. >> i think that's right, and they also share very obviously the conservative platform in terms of politics. so it sort of a natural alignment. yesterday in her speech, which was very good, the prime minster invoked the whole reagan-thatcher dynamic, so there is echoes of that at work as we enter into the new bilateral relationship. but actually i wanted to say that the first thing i thought when i heard confirmation that she was going to be the first foreign head of government to be received in the trump white house is how sort of refreshing and surprising it is to see president trump in the foreign policy sphere doing something so noncontroversial, so in keeping with traditional foreign policy making and sort of the washington establishment, which is something he abhors in so many ways. i think this is a good move on his part and i think it is something that is going to pave
8:18 am
the way for increased cooperation as we know with them dropping out of the eeo, they are in need of as many vehicles to work together. >> jenna: that's an optimistic take, i should mention it's not a formal state visit, that will come and we will some more ceremony around us, but the significance of the visit is there, because this is the first week, and here is theresa may. behind closed doors, what do you think is the number one priority that these two leaders must address? >> if i was the president i would say, you know, or the prime minister addressing the challenge posed by russia. unfortunately, president trump takes a different perspective on that. i think that won't necessarily be the pivotal issue. i suspect the pivotal issue will be the idea of trade. a close second to that is counterterrorism cooperation. the united kingdom has wanted the united states to take more of a lead in terms of the counter isis campaign, and the reason that helps in terms of
8:19 am
the two leaders here, is at the uk, because the uk is still a member of the eeo, it will take a couple of years to get out, has influence with the french and the germans, but the french especially if pushed with new leadership from the united states, which they didn't see from president obama, might put more special operations forces, so you might see not a reconstruction, but an empowerment of the existing coalition against isis, and through that an escalation of the operational tempo toward annihilating the organization. >> jenna: that's an interesting point, we have talked very often about the visa waiver program we have with european countries and how there's so much travel between the middle east and the threat of terrorism, and how easy it is to go from europe to the united states, and as we talk a little bit about our national security. i wonder if you could pick off of what tom just said and share with our viewers your insight from working with two administrations of different points of view about how our government has valued this relationship in the past and also where there is some room for improvement. >> so they're obviously our
8:20 am
longest standing traditional defense ally, everything from defense cooperation to intelligence cooperation to share to democratic values and the promotion of those values around the world are something we've worked on forever with the brits. but i think coming into this meeting today, probably number one on the prime minister's agenda is going to be sort of emphasizing to president trump how important the nato alliance is, more than ever before, because if you think about it, with the uk set to pull out of the ae you imminently, we need all of the vehicles for collaboration and cooperation that we possibly can, so sort of by default, nato is going to assume from the british perspective more importance than ever before, shared intelligence, shared defense priorities, and so i think she is going to be very focused on maybe even before she talks about the bilateral trade relationships, walking back president trump from some of the criticism that he has lobbed
8:21 am
against nato in recent months. i think that might actually be number one on the agenda. >> jenna: that is an interesting point. jillian and tom, great to have you both, thanks so much. >> jon: coming up, a great report i will introduce you to a truly wonderful american military family. kayla and charles, now the parents of six children showing true strength in the face of incredible challenges. giving birth to quadruplets, obviously a challenge to any young mother, but wait until the obstacles one military family overcame to give their children life.
8:24 am
8:25 am
by giving birth to quadruplets. when no fertility drugs are involved, that is a one in 700,000 chance. now they have another challenge ahead, because this new mother is going to have to battle cancer while caring for her new born quads. we first introduce the gaytan to fox news vwers last night. >> i got out to the story because my nephew used to be at fort campbell in the army and he knows people who know this family, and he said, you know, uncle bill, can you help them. i've never heard of a story like this, ever. this is unique. >> jon: now, the rest of the inspiring story of sergeant charles gaytan, his wife, kayla, and their children. it's as tough a career as you might want. military policeman in the u.s. army. but these days, morning pt at
8:26 am
fort campbell, kentucky, is child's play for sergeant charles gaytan, wendy here all that is happening at home, you will understand rid >> jon: how long have you been in the army? >> coming up on the five year mark. >> jon: how long of you been married? >> one year on the 19th. >> jon: and what a year it's been for charles and his new bride. kayla brought two children to the marriage, boy, 12, and a 2-year-old girl. they hoped for an even bigger family. everything seemed perfect. so you're the parents of two children at the point question why >> yes, sir. >> jon: life is going good? >> yeah, we literally got married last year and we found out a couple days after that, before my 29th birthday, that my biopsy had come back as hodgkin's lymphoma. >> jon: hodgkin's lymphoma, cancer of the blood. >> we got that call, i was terrified, because i don't know what to expect, no one ever wants to hear yeah, your wife has cancer. >> jon: here you are, big,
8:27 am
strapping military police officer, and your terrified. >> oh, yeah, it was awful to hear those words that it was hodgkin's, it was the most scared i've been in my life. >> jon: scared, but also determined. kayla refused to let a cancer diagnosis get her down. doctors subjected her to months of almost cruel chemotherapy, but when i was finished, charles and kayla heard good news. >> the chemo goes from february to may, and then what? >> and then i was told that i was in remission, so we were really excited about that. >> jon: but there was a downside. her doctors warned that the ravages of the chemo likely meant no more children for kayla, crushing the couples dreams. >> jon: you were told that you probably wouldn't be able to have another child. >> exactly. >> jon: and then what? >> and then in june we found out we were pregnant. >> jon: but there was so much more to celebrate. take me back to that day. >> she called me and said hey, are you sitting down?
8:28 am
i said yeah, what's up? she's pregnant, awesome, she said there's four. and i kind of went into, oh, my god, what? >> jon: yes, kayla was carrying quadruplets. is there a history of multiple births and your family? >> i think my great grandma was a twin, but other than that, no. >> jon: and you weren't on fertility drugs? >> no, contrary to boa people thought, there have been no fertility drugs, all natural. >> jon: you just out of the blue defied medical science and not only got pregnant, but decided to make it four? >> i am one that likes to kind of push the boundaries, so yes, sir, there are four. >> jon: all four babies healthy and thriving, conception apparel he came just after the chemo, so the quadruplets were unaffected by the cancer treatments. the dreams of a larger famy were coming true, and kayla's focus sharpened. >> jon: so you had a goal i know of carrying the quads for a certain period of time. because i did, the goal was 34
8:29 am
weeks in the beginning. >> she is pretty much wonder woman in my opinion, because she does the uppermost of everything. >> jon: with everything that is going on in your world and your wife's world, is it hard for you to come in here and do the job? >> that is an understatement, sir. it takes a lot of focus on work and then okay, work is over, let's go home, be a dad, husband, and keep everything rolling as smooth as possible. >> jon: the highest of highs suddenly gave way to another low. >> the quads were doing amazing, i didn't have any high blood pressure, nothing like that, everything was going great. and then i started to have some swollen lymph nodes again and they did a biopsy and then we found out that it was hodgkin's again. and this was in late november. >> jon: the cancer was back. >> it was. >> jon: we will share the rest of their story with you in just a couple of minutes, but i have to say, despite what she is going through, she is so positive and so upbeat, i tell you why. if anybody is going to lick
8:30 am
cancer as i can time it is going to be her. >> jenna: amazing. we look forward to the update on the babies. >> jon: with the two that they are to have. speak to a family of eight, you need a big suv for one of those. >> jon: on an army starlet sergeant salary, you know how that goes. >> jenna: we will fill our viewers in on how they can help. more in a moment. in the meantime, some reporters going through an identity crisis as president trump keeps turning the press into a political punching bag. how much will the role of the media change in this administration? our panel debates next.
8:33 am
tomorrow's the day we'll play something besides video games. every day is a gift. especially for people with heart failure. but today there's entresto... a breakthrough medicine that can help make more tomorrows possible. tomorrow, i want to see teddy bait his first hook. in the largest heart failure study ever, entresto was proven to help more people stay alive and out of the hospital than a leading heart failure medicine. women who are pregnant must not take entresto. it can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. don't take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren. if you've had angioedema while taking an ace or arb medicine, don't take entresto. the most serious side effects are angioedema, low blood pressure, kidney problems, or high potassium in your blood. tomorrow, i'm gonna step out with my favorite girl. ask your doctor about entresto. and help make the gift of tomorrow possible.
8:34 am
>> jon: well, right now a lot of reporters are playing defense in a constant barrage of attacks from president trump. in "washington post," one reporter describes the media as living in a virtual state of combat, writing, "no president has ever said what donald trump has said, let alone said it a day into his administration. as you know, i have a running war with the media." the president's comment made during a visitor cia headquarters seems to be news to the media, which has not declared war back, but it does make explicit what has been obvious for months, if not years. trump consolidated his public support in part by making journalists collectively into a political opponent. let's talk about it with our media panel today, judith miller is a pulitzer prize-winning investigative reporter, author and fox news and jabir. lynn sweet, washington bureau chief for the
8:35 am
"chicago sun-times." lynn, is this a one-way war? >> journalists have not declared war on president trump or his staffers or his administration. what has happened is that there is a wave after wave of assertions that are either not true or, as "the washington post" said in the story, that you referred to, there is a massive statements that are either unsubstantiated, not true, false, whatever word you want to ascribe to it, so there is more work to do in more real-time, and that is what you are seeing right now on the part of journalists. no declaration of war. >> jon: the door does swing both ways, judy. witness the flap over the mlk bust when one pool reporter went into the oval office and said president trump had taken away the bust of dr. martin luther king jr. and it turned out it hadn't happened, it was simply there and he missed it. >> yes, that reporter immediately apologized and corrected the error, and that is what journalists do.
8:36 am
the white house should have gotten over it. instead, it chose to raise the issue again as yet another instance of our dishonesty and our duplicity. and you know, at least the white house has not yet compared us to nazis, as they did our intelligence agencies in the field, which the president tried to undo by visiting cia headquarters. look, i agree with lynn. when they go low, we should just go on. keep our heads down, fewer tweets, more reporting. ramp back the ego and get on with our work. we benefit no one, not ourselves, and not the public, by getting into a spitting contest with the white house. they want to do it? fine, let them. but we should just concentrate on better reporting, more accurate reporting, fewer instances of spin and opinion,
8:37 am
and a lot fewer tweets. >> jon: are you suggesting that twitter is something of a problem for some journalists, at least when dealing with the white house? >> it definitely is. at several papers, reporters have had to be admonished about keeping their onions to themselves when they are doing "straight journalism." i'm an opinion journalist, so i can have an opinion openly. but if you're a reporter covering the white house, i don't want to see snarky stuff from you on twitter. i think the white house has a point. and steve bannon also had one other point, which i think is fair, and that is that we ought to listen more. if we listen more we are going to learn more and we are going to do a better job at bringing the facts that the american people need to be able to make a judgment about how the white house and donald trump are doing. >> jon: while the president's opinion of journalists is none too high, here is part of what he told sean hannity in that interview last night. >> the media, a little bit of a
8:38 am
contentious start, if you will, with them. i've seen now "the new york times," cnn, nbc, they have used the word "liar" to describe you as it relates to you talking about crowd size. >> these are very hostile people, these are very angry people. >> but they also colluded against you in the campaign. >> they are very dishonest people, the media is very dishonest, i say that openly. >> i said journalism is dead, so we agree. >> never dead, but very dishonest people. in many cases. you have some very honest ones, but i get stories that are so false and so dishonest. >> jon: so, lynn, there you go, that is what the president thinks of the media, yet it is also true that were it not for media coverage of his campaign he likely wouldn't be the president right now. >> absolutely. stories don't exist in the abstract, and that's what i hope our viewers can think about in the days ahead.
8:39 am
the indictment that president trump just made as if everybody goes to a meeting and decides thinks, that is just not how journalists work. it's a competitive business, especially covering the white house in washington, and even back in my chicago, it's always competitive and people don't collude in the sense that he's talking about. but here's the important thing, and judy mentioned it. when journalists make mistakes and we are not supposed to, but sometimes we do, part of our ethic, our eat's, is to make the admission that we made a mistake and make the correction. that happened right away in the case of the reporter on the martin luther king bust. that is the point. i don't think anyone, we all strive toward perfection. when you don't achieve it you fix the problem. if the white house has something or the president says something that ends up not being right,
8:40 am
journalists are there to tell the public what the facts are or what the situation is and what the context is. that is what is going on in the crowd size right now, just to name one story. a >> jon: this new president, judy, is bringing us a very different kind of presidential style, a very theatrical style in some regard, and it seems like maybe media people are having trouble making the adjustment. >> exactly. look, you always want to cover the sexy story, you always want to cover what is meant to be by the white house a distraction. make an allegation that is completely outrageous like all reporters are dishonest, which by the way, donald trump did not say. he said some were honest, but our profession was not. but i disagree with my good friend, sean hannity, i don't think journalism is dead, i think it's alive and well, and that is what the white house is frightened of. they want to delegitimize the reporting on his administration, that reporters are going to be doing, that we've done and are
8:41 am
going to be doing. i would do the same thing if i were trying to play down bad news. but i really think it's up to the press to just keep focused and to maintain objectivity to the extent that you can. give the american people the facts. a >> jon: and worth pointing out, sean hannity is a host of an opinion program here on fox. thank you both. >> jenna: a few moments ago we brought you the story of a military family battling serious health problems while preparing for the arrival of their quadruplets. they expectant mother now coping with the news that her cancer has returned, part two of their incredible story next. the guy says, "you picked the wrong insurance plan." no, i picked the wrong insurance company. with new car replacement™, we'll replace the full value of your car plus depreciation. liberty mutual insurance. g new cars. you're smart. you already knew that. but it's also great for finding the perfect used car.
