and cheese doughnut, 9,000 calories. more than 4 times daily allowance. heather: head to the gym. "fox & friends" starts right now. abby: happy friday. >> i turn on the tv, open the newspapers and i see stories of chaos, zero chaos. we are running -- this is a fine-tuned machine. the public doesn't believe you, people, anymore. >> the press has gotten to the point where they need a watchdog and it turns out that trump is the watchdog. >> i've been mining in this industry for 40 years, we thank you very much for everything that you have done for us, everything that you're doing for the industry is very much needed. >> that's the trump who won the election by making that connection against an opponent who had no clue. >> dubke will be nominated.

>> it's going to happen. you know why tax reform is going to happen, because it has to happen. >> i have to say "fox & friends" in the morning, they have. >> hon rorr -- honorable people, they have the most honest morning show. ♪ ♪ ♪ steve: live at the white house where yesterday the president trump in the east room had a epic press conference and right after that sounder bite my sister kathy in ohio texted me. donald trump just announced to the world "fox & friends" is the most honest show on tv. ten seconds later, my other sister said, really, i'm watching blue bloods. [laughter] ainsley: my phone was blowing

after the press conference. brian: people wanted more access to the president. it's unprecedented for a president, perhaps, but not for donald trump. people are saying this is so strange. what do you mean it's so strange? we have been watching this for a year and a half? what do you mean that's unhinged? that is his narrative. ainsley: i bet he was in a great mood because people are saying, he's back, he's always been good at standing up there and he almost enjoys. steve steve i'm enjoying it. he started by taking off all of the accomplishments, executive orders, how he kept campaign promises. ainsley: jobs. steve: he has done in young presidency than any president in history. and i really don't get why i'm getting such bad coverage from all of you right out here.

it wasn't meet the press, it was beat the press. >> i turn on the tv and see stories of chaos, chaos. yet tts the -- it is the exact opposite. this administration is running like a fine-tuned machine despite the fact that i can't get my cabinet approved. i see many untruthful things. i see tone, the tone is such hatred. i won with news conferences and probably speeches, i certainly deny win by people listen to go you people, that's for sure. i'm having a good time. tomorrow they will say, donald trump rants and raves at the press. you're dishonest people, but i'm not ranting and raving. i love this.

i'm having a good time doing it. steve: i'm not ranting and raving yet that's what's going to be what the headline is the next day. actually it wasn't the next day. a lot of people went on tv immediately and started saying, look, that guy is unhinged. brian: you need to start watching. it's going to go up and down. some days you're going to be treated great and sometimes bad. i wonder what their writing about. he has so much to do. why is he watching don lemon at 10:00 o'clock on cnn. ainsley: when most of the media -- brian: does anyone have a worst

feel than george w. bush. i'm watching all the networks against me but he's still giving interviews to everybody, barack obama had one network who questioned him and was obsessed with it and never talked to those people. steve: here is the thing about donald trump, keep in mind, television is his business. he's been in the tv. brian: that's his old president. steve: he's the television president. nobody does television better than donald trump. ainsley: this is what he ran on, though. he's not going to be bullied. he's going to stand up. steve: absolutely. that's going to be the test of time. you know, he's made a lot of campaign promises. now he has to get congress on board and do something about jobs. he has to do something about health care and tacks, but the press which has for the most part just had a views that russia gate is the new

watergate. 75 minutes of donald trump yesterday and they went to town. he said, they would say he's ranting and raving and they pretty much did. >> it wa wild. >> exaggeration and a few loose facts. >> bizarre, contentious, if we are looking, we are getting inside into the mind of our president that he's just obsessed with coverage. >> it was like a guy almost like on a couch explaining his problems. >> it was sprawling, it was all over the place, it was a road map of his mind. it is a very disturbing road map in many regards. >> you have presidents take office, many of them are empower today get bigger, you think you have a president that looked smaller -- >> are you kidding me. he's bigger than the super power. ainsley: they can't stand it. he was able to stick his chest out and say that was a great press conference, i answered so many questions and nobody can

just say it was cnn or fox news or whatever. he talk today jim acosta for a long time and they have had sparring in the past. i feel like they were fair to each other. they were laughing a little bit to each other and mainstream media, they can't stand it. they like the narrative of general flynn, 7-month ban not working out and they don't want to walk away and say he had a great conference. >> cnn is no longer fake news. it's very fake news. ainsley: we are not going to call it fake news, it's going to be, very fake. >> if you like donald trump before the press conference, you thought it was great. you didn't like him, you probably didn't care for it. what he is doing with the press conference is just like twitter and the social media is he's going over the heads of the people in that room and that bugs them and rush limbaugh add this to say about that. >> they want you to believe that they are this watchdog and that they are holding truth to power,

that they are holding powerful people accountable. they are not doing anything of the sort. the press has gotten to the point where they need a watchdog and it turns out that trump is the watchdog, trump is the guy holding them accountable. he was having fun with them. he was toying with them. it's like if you have a cat, do you know that you get the laizer pointers and you have a little kitten or a cat, the cat goes nuts chasing the light. it'll run into a wall. [laughter] >> the thing that overwhelm any critic answer north korea, answer iran, answer russia in provocative acts, three this week alone, get the economy growing at 4%, you do tax reform, it doesn't matter what these reporters think of you, when the economy grows, when things start happening, no one is going to be talking about style approach or who you voted for. his actions will quiet all the critics and they will look

self-centered which many are. steve: you know what the democratic game plan from the getgo is as soon as he won they started this narrative about, look, the only reason he won was the russia thing and russia hacked the election. they are trying to diminish him so he can't get any of the stuff done and ultimately it worked -- i would say that he accomplished his mission yesterday with his press conference and that's one of the reasons why he's going to go to melbourne, florida tomorrow, late in the day, they are expecting great big crowds. he's back in campaign mode because he's a great campaigner. brian: the question is what's in the speech? is it going to be tax reform in a hundred days, is he going to be looking forward or back. ainsley: paul ryan was in hannity last night n. the next 200 days you'll see all of this happen. he promised 200 days. it'll be quick. what i was hearing yesterday, they love this, he's back.

he represents middle america, the fly-over states, the southern states and they were saying, some nurses came, there's new york and california, if you look at the map who voted for him, in the middle they voted for him, for the last eight years democrats were bailing out the big banks meanwhile people in middle america were losing their houses . steve: he wants to get health care done and tax reform and about 5:30 this morning he actually was awake apparently in the upstairs of the white house and tweeted this out. despite the long delays by the democrats in finally approving dr. tom price, the repeal and replacement of obamacare is moving fast. in other words, while he talked a lot yesterday about a lot of different things, don't worry, folks, he's on the case, he's going to do something about health care, it's coming. brian: tax reform.

bill clinton went through scandal and impeachment. if he can get the economy growing, it doesn't matter if anyone likes his style. steve: let us know what you thought about the epic press conference or tweet us or facebook us, but in the meantime we have a fox news alert. >> democrats have been up all night long protesting on the floor, they are still there at this hour talking about the president's pick to head the epa, scott pruitt. lawmakers considering his confirmation as oklahoma county judge orders the release of thousands of emails between pruitt's office and fossil fuel companies. many critics calling for the vote to be delayed until the emails are made public but we understand it's still on track, the vote is to take place around 1:00 o'clock eastern time today. the white house working at lighting speed, we have learned overnight that mike dubke will be named communications director. in the meantime president trump

still searching for replacement for the ousted national security adviser michael flynn. his first choice harward declining due to job commitments . hollywood's biggest night been tainted by politics. jimmy kimmel promising to get political when he holds 89th academy award choice. he hasn't, quote, exactly how much i will dwell on that. a lot depends on what happens that week. oscars set for february 26th. those are your headlines. >> thank you. steve: straight ahead, congress gets a place at the president's table and number one on the menu is jobs and our next guest was there. pennsylvania congressman mike kelly takes us inside the meeting.

ainsley: i'm hungry now, steve. steve thank you. ainsley: a couple of trump supporters have a couple of messages for in nordstrom. >> head today dillard's to buy all kinds of stuff. ainsley: viral video that we are going to show you this morning. tech: don't let a cracked windshield ruin your plans. trust safelite. with safelite's exclusive "on my way text"... you'll know exactly when we'll be there. giving you more time for what matters most.

>> thanks so much. what an exciting summer we had together. we did better than okay. >> we took an area that wasn't republican and we swamped them. thank you very much. steve: president trump meeting with members of congress who were early supporters of his campaign. wasn't of them congressman of pennsylvania who traditionally backed democratic candidates but last cycle was an exception going all in for trump. live from washington. good morning, to you, sir. >> good morning, good morning,

steve, thanks for having me. steve: in the beginning there were not many in capitol hill that were in the trump train but you were why? >> because i come from the private sector. it's fantasy politics. what i knew was what was going back home and on the job front and how desperate people were to get back to work. our candidate made sense, he connected with them in a way that nobody down here understood. i love coming from the private sector in sitting down with the president who is from the private sector and knows how to get things done, he doesn't lecture, he gets it done. steve: yesterday he kicked many things done via executive order. one thing he's been saying this about coal jobs. >> i am continue to go keep my promise to the american to get rid of wasteful regulations that do nothing, absolutely nothing

but slow down the economy, hamstring companies, push jobs to other countries which is happening all over. steve: that's exactly what you wanted him to do, isn't it? >> absolutely. i have so many friends in the coal business, what you see what the previous administration did to the coal business and did to the people that were backbone, we are talking about coal miners and telling those people, you don't have a job anymore, we will find something else for you to do. you know what they said, i think we will look for another person, another boss that know what is to do and get it done and get america back on track again to make america great again. that's exactly what this president is doing, that's exactly what the country needs, right man, right time, right now. steve: when you watch a number of the television channels, that's not the message you get. you get, russia, you know, they're pulling the strings, they hacked to election and stuff like that. >> sure. steve: yesterday he made it clear it's not just fake news but very fake news. what would you make about that? >> he was being kind by saying

fake news. those of us that come from the area of the country where we come from, the president is stronger today than he was in november 8th, he's gaining momentum, who is he gaining momentum with, not the media because they are never going to believe this is a guy who should have been elected. that's just not who they are. they don't know how to handle him. when he talks with them, he's toying with them and they can't take that. they want people to fall in line. this is a president that knows where he is going, knows how to get there and why? he's actually done it on his own dime and on his own time. steve: well put, mike kelly joining us today from our nation's capitol. >> thanks for having me, god bless. steve: you bet. god bless you. mainstream media freaking out over the president's immigration plans and everything else but our next guest immigration attorney said the president has done for immigrant children in his first two weeks than president obama did in two terms. plus, it appears the former

president obama has his own wall and now he's neighbors are asking him, mr. president, tear down that wall. besides video. 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. at bp, we empower anyone to stop a job if something doesn't seem right, so everyone comes home safely. because safety is never being satisfied. and always working to be better.

ways wins. because safety is never being satisfied. especially in my business. with slow internet from the phone company,

you can't keep up. you're stuck, watching spinning wheels and progress bars until someone else scoops your story. switch to comcast business. with high-speed internet up to 10 gigabits per second. you wouldn't pick a slow race car. then why settle for slow internet? comcast business. built for speed. built for business. brian: president trump supporters sticking it to in nordstrom, let's listen . >> i have been shopping at nordstrom for 30 years and because of your decision to drop ivanka trump i will no longer shop at your store nor will my husband or our nine children or eight grandchildren. >> we are going to dillard's.

>> going to dillard's. >> head today dillard's to buy all kinds of stuff. brian: nine kids. >> in-- nordstrom defending the move. women march organizers announcing a day without women march eighth which is international women's day, then go to sports bars, by the way, massive strikes being planned were many details still not released. ainsley: men are cheering. is that what you're saying, brian. women are striking, a day without a woman. listen. >> daca is a very difficult subject for me, i will tell you. you have some absolutely incredible kids. i would say mostly. they were brought here in such a way -- it's a very tough subject.

we are going to deal with daca with heart. ainsley: president trump has showed more compassion for children than obama administration. good morning, matthew, thanks for joining u. >> good morning, thanks for having me. ainsley: why do you think that? >> well, to give you history back in 2014 there was a surge of unaccompanied minors that came from the southern border from central america and one of the central components of the obama administration enforcement strategy was to ramp up deportations of them through the creation of a special -- what they call a rocket docket where they fast-tracked these kids often times without lawyering through the deportation and conducted raids to take the kids that were deported and send them back home to conditions that were life-threatening and

january 31st, the president issued a memorandum through department of justice to deprioritize the kids deportations and put them in the back of the line which is a significant line. ainsley: what does that tell you about president trump? he gets it. there are humanitarian concerns here. obviously the press has portrayed him as a racist and islamophobe but when you actually break down his foration priorities right now and compare to the previous administration they are virtually identical, obama spent eight years that he was focusing deportations on serious criminals and threats to national security, he generally focuses on people with traffic tickets and people he had convicted of immigration related crimes.

when he left office, 52% of all federal criminal prosecutions were immigration related and that includes drug crimes, weapons offenses, everything. our resources are being wasted on criminally prosecuting people whose only crime is trying to come back to the united states to be reunited with their families. ainsley: president obama, he was called the deporter in chief, he deported 2.7 million immigrants between 2009 and 2016 but the mainstream media, they are going after president trump for this and we didn't hear much about it. where was the mainstream media and why weren't they reporting the facts? >> well, the way i like to describe it is that the mainstream media simply doesn't like it when a republican president deports people and they're willing to accept the carnage if a democrat is in control and it doesn't really help matters when you have individuals within the immigration law community that assist in the pairing of white

house issue talking points and spread the misinformation. so that's what we have been dealing for the last eight year. ainsley: as immigration attorney, you represent the illegal immigrants that are in the country? >> i do. ainsley: how long does it take for them to become a citizen if they go through the process? >> it can take years, better part of a decade or longer depending on where they start the process. with regards to -- to stream lining the process, there are very simple fixes that we can be doing to immigration law that don't require sweeping reform. it doesn't require the creation of a new special pathway to citizenship to solve problems, what we need to do is take a look at the fact that there are 11 million people in this country and there are humanitarian concerns that require us to take a practical step forward in solving problems rather than just fighting because of an election that one party is trying to win.

ainsley: maybe he will sit down with you and hear your opinions, thank you for joining us. >> i'm here president trump if you want to talk. ainsley: have a great weekend. president obama has his own wall and now his navy -- neighbors are asking him to take it down. president trump wants his supporters to grade the media. steve hilton says that's a great idea. he's going to join us next still not feeling well? no...you know when i got sick my mom used to make me chicken noodle soup. aw, ok... you should call your mom. bye. campbell's chicken noodle soup. there when no one else is. campbell's. made for real, real life.

>> i would be the biggest fan in the world if you treated me right. i understand there's a certain bias maybe by jeff or somebody, for whatever reason, but -- and i understand that. you you have to be a little bit fair.

they see it's not fair. you take a look at some of your shows and you see the bias, the hatred and the public is smart, they understand that. brian: and so is steve hilton, former director of strategy for the british prime minister david cameron when he was a full-time employee. steve: what do you think? >> i loved it, the guy that's going to be different and go to washington and shake things up. it also showed something that people want to see in leaders this is a sense of strength. he stood there and took on all the questions and gave as good as he got. i thought it was great. reaction to it which you have been reporting this morning i think says something interesting which is the political establishment, the media establishment, it seems to me that right now they are getting 2017 just as wrong as they got 2016.

they are so craze with self-righteousness and hatred of trump they can't see that the things he's doing can bring real results. that's actually the caveat to all of this and as you were saying earlier, the press conference, i thought it was good and stood up to the press but the real test is what he does and you're talking also about the interview paul ryan gave to sean hannity. i was concerned about that to be honest. >> why? >> if you listen to what he said, there are a few things that were problematic, one ryan gave himself politician wiggle room. maybe, we really want to get it done this year. that's the first thing. he actually didn't promise to do it in 200 days. the second thick and this is what i just don't get about washington, is this idea that you can't do more than one thing at a time that we have to the regulatory stuff now and then obamacare and then the tax reform. why?

what are they doing down there? why can't they do more than one thing at a time? why do we have from ryan and the republicans in congress business as usual -- ainsley: a rule that's set up. a rule that you have to first do obamacare before you can do the tax reform. >> why? ainsley: why do we have that rule? >> people who are desperate for a job and pay rise, they elected trump to cut taxes, do infrastructure, get rid of regulation to boost the economy and it feels to me that you have the business as usual attitude from washington and that, i think, is what trump really needs to -- brian: donald trump is back here in two months and nothing else done and still sparring with the press then there's a legitimate problem. >> exactly. for perfect outcome is to do what he promised which he -- ainsley: sorry to interrupt you. go ahead. >> and really say to ryan, sorry, that's not good enough. we need it now. the american elected me to do a job and do it quickly. ainsley: right.

>> that's in everyone's interest. ainsley: it's been three weeks, time is ticking, we are ready to get some of the stuff done. he's trying to work and congress is holding it up. steve: that's the worry of a lot of people who worry for donald trump and even if they didn't, they want america to work out okay. he has done as much as he can with the time he's had with the xee -- xee -- executive orders. >> trump has got the energy and the attitude and the fight. and he's got to be directed to a positive purpose. brien: right, the problem with our government the tax plan has to come from the white house. the infrastructure plan can come from the white house. it doesn't necessarily have to come from congress so now he has the people in place. i didn't expect him to have a tax plan, he spent his whole life in business. what do you think of my plan and start -- >> sorry to go on about the paul

ryan interview. another thing that really worried me when sean pressed him on the detail of the tax plan and the corporate tax cut which is crucial for getting jobs and incomes and investment and getting the economy moving. trump promised 15% of tax business and ryan saying 20. ainsley: yeah. >> well, it's just math. that's so not true. there's a really big difference between 20 and 15. 20% rate is better than what we've got but is not internationally competitive. it puts america in the middle of the pack. 15%, that's a real signal to investors and entrepreneurs to invest in america to boost jobs and incomes. he's got to win the argument. it has to be 15%. ainsley: i don't know how it is in the uk. as girls we would love to take a love quiz. there's a quiz now -- in a magazine, how much do you really love your boyfriend and add up all the points. [laughter] ainsley: there's a quiz that

donald trump's people are sending out to his voters and they're asking them, how do you think he's doing, what news outlets do you trust. some of the questions is do you believe mainstream media has recorded fairly on our movement and whether or not they trust cnn and fox news. here are some of the questions. do you believe that the mainstream media is reporting unfairly on our movement, you can answer, yes, no, no opinion, other, please specify. >> part of accountable surveys. it goes on and on. >> this is great. i love this. the truth is you have the mainstream media frankly, they are talking to themselves. they are trying to get the approval of the neighbors and friends and fancy districts in washington and so on and bringing the people in and giving them a voice, i think it's exactly -- it's part of what trump promised which is to

give power to people. steve: through facebook and twitter. >> exactly. brian: i have to bring you to the last one. tony blair wants to go ahead of the british people and reconsider brexit. >> i just saw this this morning. very quickly, what blair said this morning in london is a double assault on democracy. first, he wants to overturn the referendum result because he doesn't agree with it and second and fundamentally he wants to keep the unelected bureaucrats in the eu with the ultimate power over the laws and regulations. in the uk that's not democratic. now the good news is that blair i'm afraid to, you know, break it to him gently he's probably the most hated man in britain. this isn't going anywhere whatever he says today. steve: because you're from crowd pack, the organization you started, crowd pack sent

something with regard to kidd rock. >> you covered the story this week that he might be looking at a senate run and someone set on to see him run. your card is only charged if he actually runs or enters the run. ainsley: how much money have you raised? >> in the low thousands. ainsley: i think it was 4,000 when i checked last. >> i don't know if it's going to go anywhere. they want him to run, they can make a pledge. steve: great entertainer and has political view that is have lined up with donald trump and crazy t-shirts during the campaign. [laughter] >> you never know. we provide the technology for whatever people want. brian: lawmakers calling for an investigation for the latest intelligence leaks, florida

ainsley: good morning, welcome back to "fox & friends". the mexican immigrant and hero of the left dreamer medina is about to face a judge in seattle today. the admitted gang member was brought to the u.s. illegally as

a child and protected under the obama administration. legal experts say the obama protections can be revoked. he and his father were taken into custody during ice raids last week, it appear that is former president obama has his own wall and it's making his neighbors in chicago really mad. these barricades have been put up in front of a chicago home for the past nine years now and now the president obama is no longer in office, they want the cement taken down. neighbors say they want openness and inclusiveness in their neighborhood. those are the headlines, brian. brian: who from inside may be leaking information from the white house? president trump vowing to go after the leakers plaguing the administration. joining us right now congressman, member of house oversight committee. government oversight reform committee.

congressman, where do you start? >> well, i think you start with accountability within the agencies. remember the president has appointed a very good cia director mike pompeo, pompeo came out with a statement yesterday in relation to the well street journal saying that that is not acceptable and then we are going to get a new director of national intelligence, so part of this is you have folks that aren't part of this administration, holdovers and you will have to turn that out but you will have to have the intelligence community do investigation to try to determine where the leaks are coming from and it's not just with the michael flynn thing, obviously that's wasn't thing. you have the president doing phone calls with foreign leaders and then somehow the contents of these calls are being put out to the press. that is not the way we can conduct foreign policy. the president was elected lawfully and this community needs to serve his interest so

that he can serve his commander in chief. >> for example, the friction with the australian leader it caught everybody by surprise. number two with vladimir putin and the treaty with the president needing a definition to what exactly they are referring to. they did that to embarrass him. don't look just intelligence, look at the state department, what do you think? >> that's another whole can of worms. it is an issue. brian: don't they also get the transcripts? >> yes, but here is the thing. when you have -- when you start getting into the lower bowels of the bureaucracy, you have career officials who are supposed to be nonpartisan but they have a liberal bend. the president of the united states, they don't agree with them, some of these are taking matters into their own hands. that's not the way the system is suppose today operate. >> let's get the republican congress doing all the

investigations and oversight and inquiries and keep them from their agenda, could that indeed happen in. >> there's definitely not just with this, you see how the nominations are being stalled for no good reason, these guys have the votes, they are drawing them out. same thing with this, what they want to do is prevent us from doing tax reform, repeal and replace obamacare, roll back harmful regulations, you're right, we cannot let that happen. we have to keep our eye on the ball as well. you can do oversight but you have to keep your eye on the substantive ball for the american people. >> they have to realize a month in the clock is, indeed, ticking, people want to see results and they don't care too much about the politics. congressman, thanks so much, i appreciate you getting up with us on in friday. >> thank you. brian: there's no chaos in the white house. >> this administration is running like a fine-tuned machine. brian: does he chief of staff agree? reince priebus looks exactly

like that and claims to come on our show, i believe him. your smartphone could be leaking personal information without you even knowing. does he have my ced call records, does he know about my ankle injury did you know 90% of couples disagree on mattress firmness? enter sleep number... she likes the bed soft. he's more hardcore. you can both adjust the bed for the best sleep of your life. save 50% on the ultimate limited edition bed, plus 24-month financing. go to sleepnumber.com for a store near you. don't let the food you eat during the day haunt you at night. nexium 24hr... shuts down your stomach's active acid pumps... to stop the burn of frequent heartburn... all day and night. have we seen them before? banish the burn with nexium 24hr. a girl with golden locks broke into a house owned by three bears. she ate some porridge, broke the baby bear's chair, and stole some jewelry, a flat-screen tv, and a laptop.

vulnerable app that is hackers can tap to with a simple wi-fi connection. how can you protect from all of this, here with some answers is kirk the cyber guy. >> good morning, we are talking this morning about the fact that, you know, we never really hear about apple iphones or i pads. they are the safest of all phones. this is pretty serious, 76 apps inside of the app store already downloaded 18 million times are now affected with this. vulnerability inside the app with it communicates and allows people to get log-in credentials to all the things you talked about. steve: how do we figure out if we have those apps? >> i have a list online. today avoid public public or untrusted wi-fi networks. >> starbucks.

>> don't go out and tune in to the local park, library, be in a trusted environment only. and then also when it comes to you avoiding this, turn off wi-fi, use cellular data when you're not at home. that will really protect you. cellular data is very difficult for a hacker to get access to and they won't be able to when they are in cellular data get to wi-fi network. ainsley: let me ask you this, when i go to the gym my wi-fi use today connect and now there's a disclaimer and basically this could be hacked. >> sort of everywhere you go. the fine print is something we don't really pay attention to in life. at this moment it's extremely important. the gym doesn't want to be held liable. brian: should we stop working out? >> you should not stop working out. what's at risk is what is scary. steve: any smart device is at risk if you use the public

wi-fi. >> this is not immune to anybody. if you want to when you have a time look at 76 apps, 19 of them are incredibly difficult, high-risk, financial data medical records are on that and the medium risk, getting onto bank, you name it, there's a lot of banking apps exposed to this. they don't want to call it out right here on tv because it's not helpful. steve: if we call russia, we will find out. ainsley: does that hurt? >> a little bit. >> we have it listed all right there. >> cyber guy on facebook and you'll find it. >> list of 76. steve: just last week i got him to sell his radio. >> i am going to give up my handle. >> i had antenna. >> what was your cb handle?

brian: i can't give that information. steve: chief of staff reince priebus is too busy putting out fake fires instead of working with what people really want. we will talk with reince about that when he joins us in about half an hour and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, or adempas® for pulmonary hypertension, as this may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. do not drink alcohol in excess. to avoid long-term injury, get medical help right away for an erection lasting more than four hours. if you have a sudden decrease or loss of hearing or vision, or an allergic reaction, stop taking cialis and get medical help right away. ask your doctor about cialis.

and the subtitle is ringmaster don whips media in grant what he's done is going against the campaign. he made his the center of the story. and everyone is taking an opinion about it. and what we're want talking about is mike flynn, we're not talking about russia, we're talking about everything. steve: he talked about how his executive order, how he's keeping his campaign promise, and you have to admit the guy has done a lot. and the stocks have been soaring since he's taken office. you would have to go back to the lbj days to find a record like this. his polls, according to what was yesterday, he's at 55% approval. brian: although the other poll has him at 39%. 16-point difference. steve: so one of them's right. one of them's wrong. maybe it's in the middle. plus he can still out the big show because every network

yesterday took donald trump in the east room of the white house talking about his accomplishments, how he would like to get stuff done. but mainly, it was taking a look at the people who are the press core for the white house. the people whose job it is to tell the stories but fortunately for donald trump and the american people, he feels a lot of them are fake news because the information they give the people is distorted. ainsley: like him or not, you have to say. it's entertaining. watch this. >> i turn on the tv, open the newspapers, and i see stories of chaos. chaos. yet, it is the exact opposite. this administration is running like a fine-tuned machine. despite the fact that i can't get my cabinet approved. i just see many, many untruthful things. and i'll tell you what else i see. tone. in other words, tone. the tone is such hatred. i'm really not a bad person, by the way. i won with news conference and

probably speeches. i certainly didn't win by listening to you people. that's for sure. but i'm having a good time. tomorrow they will say "donald rants and raves at the press." i'm not ranting and raving. i'm just telling you you're dishonest people. i'm not ranting and raving. i'm having a good time doing it. brian: one hour and in all. i'm going to do what i'm going to do and not going to bend to washington. chris has seen a lot of presidents and covered them up close and personal. that's what he was. but other networks right away said he's unhinged, out of control, can't hold a thought. ainsley: funny moment. he said we're not calling it fake news anymore. it's so bad, we're not calling it fake news. we're going to call it very fake news. steve: so as you would imagine the very fake news people were

upset. keep in mind donald trump said tomorrow people are going to say in the press he was unhinged. he was ranting and raving. and for the most part, they were. watch. >> it was unhinged, it was wild. >> bluster, exaggeration, and a few loose facts. >> bizarre, contentious. if we're looking of getting an insight into the mind of our president that he's just obsessed with coverage. >> it was like a guy on a couch explaining problems to his slink. >> it was problems, a roadmap of his mind, a disturbed president. >> you have many problems as a president. many of them get bigger. i think you had a press conference that looked smaller. brian: look what he has done. sanctions on iran. he has nato, defense secretary meeting with nato getting to spend more.

he has met with ceos of retail. told them he has their back for the future. yesterday with minors, and we'll talk to them yesterday, he fulfilled the campaign promise of coal and hamstringing it and getting some calls. and two weeks ago, three weeks ago those union members said i've never even been invited to the white house before. so if you're going to say unhinged, fine. but you at least have to come back and say all of these other things have been done. steve: why would they? they don't. brian: because you have hours to fill. it's a 24-hours news network. steve: i understand. on this channel, we try to do it all. we try to give it fair and balanced. if you liked donald trump before the tel tell conference. you liked him afterwards. it

brian: trump taking on the media over fake news and illegal leaks. does he have a guest? our next guest says, yeah, he has a point. here to weigh in former treasury secretary. bill, your assessment of a press conference of 77 minutes. >> yeah. i was told to go to the most honest show on tv. did i end up in the right place? brian: yes, you did. >> okay. my impression was that it was a tour to force by the president. i learned one major lesson, brian, in washington when i was there. you're on offense or you're on defense. and if you're not on offense, you are on defense.

he was on offense and the press was on defense, and that is very unusual. i just want to emphasize that point. we're used to seeing republican presidents being treated like piñatas by the press. we've seen some painful press conferences with presidents. but he reversed it. instead of being the piñata, he was doing whack-a-mole with them, and they couldn't accept it. they want to be loved, they want to be respected, but most of all, a lot of them want to be feared. they want when they speak for presidents to quiver and to say. okay. well, i'll shape up on that. he's not afraid of them, and they know that. you know, like sharks in the water, they can if smell the fear. there's no fear to be smelled with donald trump. brian: but he doesn't have much of a cabinet yet compared to other presidents. he doesn't have a national security adviser. only one temporarily. and we're seeing that there's some things that are a little bit behind the eight ball. there's a lot of things he's doing he's just discovering now. would you recommend him get

somebody in like a steve has hadly that knows the back >> no. i wouldn't recommend that. i know a lot of the team. i have a lot of the respect for the team. i think reince is great. i think steve bannon is very good. i know he's very controversial but, you know, if the mainstream media is after him, he's probably good. but look what he's doing by himself. he's doing a fair amount. that thing yesterday not to be undersold -- oversold with joe mansion standing there, his meetings with the labor unions, this man might continue to steal votes away from the democrats. but, yes, he needs his cabinet. if he can do this much that he has been doing, imagine what he can do with a cabinet. mattis was in europe, he was over there doing his job. kelly is really starting to do his job. there was a couple of other moments yesterday that the press didn't know what to do with. did you notice when he talked about the dreamers, the daca. there was real compassion. same when he talked about the

inner cities. this guy confuses them and frustrates them. i think he's doing fine. but, yeah, he needs his team in place. he needs his team in place, and they have to get cracking. but i'll take some time. i've been involved in washington for a long time. get the bills right. get the tax bills right. you guys have had kevin brady on a number of times, get obamacare replacement right. it's fine. we can wait a few months. brian: right and, bill in the big picture of a couple of months. but if we still have this press conference without checking any boxes in six to eight weeks, it's going to get more problematic; right? >> that's correct. you can't do this one too many times. this was good for yesterday. but more substance, more programs. get the confirmations done. i think they should really about the confirmations. but, look, this is a great team. i've been asked is this the most conservative team since reagan? this is a more conservative team than reagan. and what he's doing is a remarkable thing in washington. the guy is doing what he said he would do. brian: bill, you have great

>> hey, good morning, everyone. steve: so what does the president say when he says you're too busy putting out fake fires? >> well, we're working on all of the above. well, look, look at a couple of stories just over the last couple of days that dominated cable news. at least some news outlets. one, the wall street journal article that said that the intel communities with holding information from the president. you know, okay. so what do you do? it's totally fake. it's totally false. you get a statement out of the dni, and then we get a statement out of the cia refuting a fake story. you have sources within that story that also go on the record on background that the story -- the day before and the new york times that said that the trump campaign had constant communication with russian officials during the campaign was also fake. devon nunez today in the wall street journal who was briefed on the issue went on the record saying that he hasn't seen a single bit of evidence

that there had been constant contacts from the trump campaign with russian officials. these are the types of things that are totally phony that -- steve: well, reince, where do these stories come from? because the reporters aren't making them up. somebody's giving them the story. >> well, they might be -- listen. there may be some bad actors within the intelligence community or some holdovers. nobody knows. but i will tell you this, and i have talked to top levels of the intelligence community. every department, by the way, not just people that are only folks that we've put in place, and they have green lighted me to say that i have talked to the highest levels of intelligence officials, and they have assured me that the new york times story about constant contacts is grossly overstated and inaccurate. so i wouldn't come on your show and say something like that if i didn't have a green

light and approval to say it. it's not true. unless the highest levels of the intelligence community don't know what they're talking about, which i highly doubt. brian: i don't want to spend the whole time talking about russia because the whole country keeps saying the same thing over and over again. it becomes an echo cha >> it's ridiculous. >> but rodger was on my radio show yesterday, he's one of four. this other guy carter. forgot his last name. whatever it is. >> the point is it doesn't even matter. brian: were there any contacts with the campaign with russia? are they -- is that also false? >> well, i don't represent the campaign, but what i just told you is what the highest levels of the intelligence community have told me, which is it is an inaccurate and grossly overstated story, and it's not true. but what really is true, and what i think the president's getting at is if you look at his schedule, you look at just yesterday, we had a press

conference, we had a meeting with congressional leaders, we had foreign leader calls, we had all kinds of events. and every day it's like that. you meet with retailers in the morning. you sign bills in the afternoon. sign the bill that the coal industry desperately needed yesterday. the coal industry was debt mad decimated by losing 36,000 jobs over the next six years. president trump saved the coal industry. these meetings, these days, these bill signings, these executive orders, they don't happen by accident. they happen because a lot of people are working very hard. but when you have to spend half your day putting out phony stories, obviously it becomes a distraction. ainsley: right. it's, like, stop. let us work. let us clean up the country. the president said yesterday he has inherited a mess. listen to this. >> to be honest, i inherited a mess. it's a mess. at home and abroad. a mess. jobs are pouring out of the country.

see what's going on with all of the companies leaving our country going to mexico and other places. low pay, low wages. mass instability overseas, no matter where you look. the middle east a disaster. north korea, we'll take care of it, folks. we're going to take care of it all. i just want you to know i inherited a mess. ainsley: so folks are saying let's get to work. i know congress is holding things up. i know the democrats aren't allowing these cabinet picks to be confirmed or it's very slow. but people are anxious, you know? i know it's only been three weeks. but people are saying all right. let's get to work. we only have four years. we want to do obamacare. we want to do tax reform. what does the timeline look like? >> well, first of all, just to go back a little bit, ainsley, look what he has done on regulation. we put in a permanent deregulation formula in place through an executive order that for every department that comes up with a new regulation, that department has to identify two regulations that get eliminated, which means you're putting the country on a downhill trajectory on

regulation. look at dakota pipeline, keystone pipeline. the president with a stroke of his pen put both of those things back in play. obamacare, we're working on a plan last night. we spent two hours with secretary price last night with our team going through our plans on obamacare, and he's going to quarterback our plans through the house and the senate, and we're finalizing that hopefully during the first week of march we'll be working on that plan with congressional leaders. and then tax reform comes next. brian: what about your national security adviser position? how big of blow harward? when y were you caught flat-footed when he said "no"? and who's coming in? who is now the finalist to get that job? >> no. we told -- we told admiral harward that we were very interested in talking to him, and we were very serious about his position at the nsa, and he responded, well, let me talk to my wife and family, and we'll get back to you. and we kept in constant contact. he called us and said guess

what? i've got some support in the family but others aren't that excited about it. and he then told us that it was something that his family couldn't go for. but he was honored to be talked to, and it wasn't going to happen. it was a reasonable thing. steve: so he turned it down. do you know who the next one is. >> but wait a minute, the conversations were happening -- the conversations were happening based on a contingency that his family would sign off going further, and his family didn't sign off. that's all it is. steve: before you go, yesterday, so many people loved donald trump's press conference because it was wide ranging. how often is he going to do that? because a lot of people say it really helped him. >> well, i agree. and i will say, you know, we can all do our best, and i think i do a pretty good job. but i can't do anywhere near what president trump can do. there's no person better to speak for president trump than president trump, and he's extraordinarily talented, and

he's a great salesman, and he knows how to communicate. steve: so how often? >> i don't know. it's up to him. but it was an effective way to sum up what his message was yesterday, and he did a fantastic job. brian: and who were the finalists for the national security job now? is it petraeus and somebody else? >> well, look, we're talking to a lot of people. but there's also general kellogg who's there. a three star general. he's extraordinarily talented. he's been on the team. he's also been the chief of staff of the nse, so he's also euro contention. but he's doing a job right now. just to be clear, it's not vacate. -- vacant. kellogg is doing the job, and he's an extraordinary man. ainsley: how many hours are you working? 15, 20? >> closer to 20. steve: well, you have to put out some fake fires. >> thank you. ainsley: what happens when

brian: here to react, jessie waters. you have cable in your office; right? were you able to watch that? >> i was able to watch that. it was highly entertaining. it was everywhere. i mean, he was throwing hay makers. i think the base loved it. he was talking over the press to the rest of the country. i mean, it's like an adrenaline rush when you watch this stuff. everybody needs to see this. i think trump, the campaigner is back, and he showed everybody who's boss, and i think he landed a lot of solid blows out there. i think the press is on their heels after this one. steve: of course the press is all about russia, russia, russia, and trying to connect the dots. he said yesterday the democrats lost the election. and now everybody in the press is talking he can't talk to the press like that. >> it's funny because when hillary went over there with the reset button, which was misspelled, by the way, and bill clinton got 100 grand to speak in moscow, and they gave russians all the uranium, they didn't do anything when they went in crimea and ukraine,

the mainstream media, over the last three appearances only asked questions of conservative media outlets, yesterday he took all-comers, they didn't like the fact he was talking directly at them not just calling them fake news but very fake news. watch. >> i turn on tv, open the stories, see stories of chaos, yet it is the exact opposite. this administration is running like a fine-tuned machine. despite the fact that i can't get my cabinet approved. i just see many, many untruthful things. i tell you what else i see tone, you know the word tone. the tone is such hatred. i'm really not a bad person, by the way. that is how i won. i won with news conferences and probably speeches. i certainly didn't win by people listening to you people, that's for sure. i'm having a good time. tomorrow they will say donald trump rants and raves at the press.

i'm not ranting and raving. just telling you you're dishonest people, but, i'm not ranting and raving. i love this, i'm having a good time doing it. steve: of course the press said he was ranting and raving he predicted. they don't like him going over the head of the press directly to the people on appearances like that, twitter, stuff like that. >> yes. that is how he won, and i think, look, if he took, if he just stood back and took what they're dishing out to him for the next four years, he will be out there trying to rebut or explain or be on the defense as one of your guests said earlier. the truth is, he is not that kind of a guy. he is not afraid of anybody. he will go into the lion's den with the lions and come out the winner. he has done it before. he basically is saying to everybody, i'm not afraid of you. as you referenced earlier, he will call on people say he is not calling on me, ma, they will

call on them again, and again, what else do you want. he had a sense of humor. america loves that. the left-wing can go crazy, media can go crazy, america is starting to understand. you know what this fourth estate, this media for which there is no real oversight, is not really telling us the truth. and this guy, if anyone will bring them down it will be donald trump. steve: part of the problem, the stories came out regarding russia and things like that, there is somebody inside of the government who is actually got their hands on secret documents and they're leaking it to the press. the press, you get that story, you are going to run it but somebody inside of the government, yesterday donald trump talked a little bit about the leakers and find them and prosecute them. >> i don't think there is any question about that. i had people predict that before donald trump took over as president, who said there are people in the intelligence community who are so livid about what donald trump is saying

about them, that they will retaliate. what you have seen is what they did. they were in a position to do it and they leaked it. this, by the way, they don't play around. and what the president has to do with it is make clear that he doesn't play around either. and prosecute them for the leaks. this is classified information, serious stuff and if they're going to play this game, and they are, these are obama people who were leftovers. what donald trump needs to do is move into the bureaucracies and find out who the leakers are because a lot of these people are very much embedded into the system. he has to find out who they are that will not be easy. brian: reince priebus was on with us talked about the whole russia situation and how he is dealing with it. >> i have talked to the highest levels of intelligence officials and they have assured me that "the new york times" story about constant can'ts is grossly overstated, and inaccurate.

trump saved the coal industry yesterday. these meetings, these days, these bill signings, these executive orders, they don't happen by accident. they happen because a lot of people are working very hard but when you have to spend half your day putting out phony stories, obviously become as distraction. ainsley: what is your reaction? >> that is the truth. they have done more than any other president i have done i believe in the short period of time. i will doing my open on on that this weekend. they're constantly on defense. they can't get their cabinet, a lot of the cabinet approved. and they want to do a job. i think america is going to see they're going to do a job. reince just indicated what the president does. this guy is machine. he is a force of nature. you can't stop him. you can criticize him but you will not stop him. >> judge, let's talk about this group of ladies in arizona, they're moms, grandmothers, wearing t-shirts.

those people would be called racists. >> yeah, it's a different game now. you know what? i think that what we've got to do is just stay on message. ivanka trump's brand, by the way is up 21% in the last year. she's a strong woman. she is not going to capitulate either to some of these classless women who want to tear her down, in spite of the fact she has successful. ainsley: wait a minute, her profits are up? nordstrom says they are not? >> do you think placement has something to do with it or capitulated to people with political correctness and people that are important? the people who are important are people that pay at nordstrom's. shame on them. steve: this is somebody you can watch this weekend, judge jeanine. thank you for being here. ainsley: heather has more headlines. >> we're following stuff in washington. it has been going on all threw the nights. senate democrats going strong after overnight protest to stall the pick of epa scott pruitt.

economy. that, growth in the economy will translate into more jobs, better profits and that means a higher stock market. here is what you have got. first of all he lowers taxes on businesses. hopefully bring back two trillion dollars lodged overseas. a lot more spending power, big stim he will create a trillion dollar infrastructure program over 10 years a big stimulus. he will have financial reform gets mortgage easiers which means more house buying and big stimulus. you add it all up together you rarely seen a gigantic stimulus package in your life. that is the hope for things to come. ainsley: what does it mean for viewers? how will it affect families out there? >> anybodys who ha a pension plan for their company, anybody who has got a 401(k), anybody who has an ira, anybody who is saving money in the stock

months. but we better. if you don't by then, if you don't have something concrete, this market is itrouble. ainsley: all right your show is coming up in the 40 minutes. >> there is no math but 40 minutes. steve: some business guy you are. ainsley: what did you eat for breakfast. >> drink some coffee. brian: stuart varney, torso promo shot. usually we're talk with head shots. >> you're all right, guys. ainsley: senate republicans are working to repeal and replace obamacare. why did senator rand paul walk out of a meeting about it? well we'll ask him when he joins us live. brian: former president obama has his own wall, his neighbors want him to take down that wall. ♪

ainsley: are they in. president trump setting the timetable to repeal obamacare. >> we should be submitting the initial plan in march, early march i would say. steve: early march. but are all republicans on board? in a meeting with on obamacare with his fellow republicans senator paul ran out. let's find out what happened. good morning. >> you make it sound so dramatic like there was a big dramatic huff. steve: he got up and walked out. >> so did a couple dozen other people who had meetings. i a gruff look on my face but we don't have disagreement. the house is putting obamacare light. i'm not for that. we voted on complete repeal. we should have complete repeal. the other problem with partial repeal, if you repeal part of

obamacare, keep feel good stuff, it actually gets worse. this is chance that you have insurance companies leading to bankruptcy, if you have partial repeal because you leave in place some of the perverse incentives for six people to get insurance and healthy people not to get insurance. steve: senator, there have been a number of members of mainstream media or #fake news as president trump referred to yesterday, if they just repeal it without coming up with something else, then 20 million americans would be left in the lurch with no coverage but that is never your intention, is it? >> no. i've been a big proponent of the very beginning to repeal and replace on the same day. i put forward the replacement bill that has a goal insuring everyone. it has the goal providing insurance for everyone at a cheaper price. one of the fundamental flaws of obamacare was, they had noble intentions but they ended up screwing everything else and increased the price of everybody's insurance. my bill would lower the price of

everybody's insurance and let individuals buy it as a group or association. ainsley: senator, with all due respect, why wasn't this already in place? this is what he ran on. i feel like weeks and weeks are going by. why wasn't there a replacement already ready when he took office? >> we had a replacement ready for dozen years really. one of the parts of my replacement plan is from 2006. a lot of this plan has been out there. so i think that is a little bit of overstatement saying oh, republicans have no plan. thats is are one reason why i brought together a lot of consensus positions, probably half of my bill is from previous bills from congressman tom price. so these are popular bills, and i wanted to make sure everybody knew we did have a replacement but also make sure everybody knows that we do want to provide insurance for those who are struggling. steve: yeah, i know you were at the white house yesterday. you were with president trump when he signed an executive order doing what for people in your home state of kentucky? >> we were excited about it.

this was an overzealous federal government regulation that would have cost 77,000 more jobs in the coal industry. we've already lost, you know, we've lost over 10,000, maybe close to 20,000 coal jobs just in kentucky. this would have decimated us. this was a huge reprieve. i told my colleagues, this might have been the best thing we've done since i come to washington is repealing this terrible regulation. ainsley: hats off to you for that. reminds me when hillary clinton sat down with the miners and that guy put his picture in front of her, i have to feed my family. you're taking my job away from this family. i want to see the faces. what did you think about the presser yesterday? >> quite interesting and maybe the most interesting press conference ever. and so, our president is unique in the sense that he can captivate the attention of both media and public. and i think he does and he gets right to the point. he doesn't beat around the bush. he has a style distinct to

himself. steve: he does indeed. there is one donald trump. senator rand paul. thanks for joining us, senator. ainsley: have a great weekend. we talked about it the president making good on his campaign promise lifting regulations on coal miners like our next guest. >> i've been mining in this industry for 40 years. this is a very exciting time for our industry. thank you very much. ainsley: that coal miner says it was the greatest experience of his life! he is going to join us live, next. ♪ ♪ check out the bass pro shops' spring fishing classic - our biggest show and sale of the year. with huge savings on the latest gear. like pro qualifier baitcast reels for under $50. and this garmin echomap fishfinder for under $500. mattress firmness? enter sleep number...
