not bad, 11. actually nice. very, very nice. we will miss you, my friend. alan colmes, dead at 66. >> hello everyone. i'm dana perino welcome to "the five." our dear colleague passed away and we will miss him greatly. later, we will pay tribute to him. stay tuned for that. we begin with our top story. cpac kicked off today. president trump will address the conference tomorrow, his vice president will fire up the crowded tonight. earlier some of the president's top aides took the stage, including kellyanne conway, betsy devos, ernst reince pries and steve bannon.

>> the opposition party and how they portrayed the campaign, how they portrayed the administration. if you remember, the campaign was the most chaotic, most disorganized, unprofessional, and then you saw them crying and weeping that night. they were dead wrong on the campaign and just like they were dead wrong in the transition, they are dead wrong about what's going on today. they are corporate, globalist media that are adamantly opposed to an economic nationalist agenda like donald trump has. he is going to continue to press his agenda and as economic conditions get better, more jobs, they are going to continue to fight. if you think they are going to give you your country back without a fight, you are sadly

mistaken. >> dana: let's listen to one more sound bite from mr. bannon because it leads to a discussion about what he wants to be held accountable for. >> if you want to see the trump agenda having wide and divergent opinions i think the center core of what we believe that we are a nation with an economy not just in a global marketplace with open borders. we are a nation with a culture and the reason for being. i think that's what unites us. we are at the top of the first inning and it's going to take just as much fight, just as much focus and determination. hold us accountable to what we promised. hold us accountable to deliver on what we promised. >> dana: cpac has often been the place where rand paul could rile up the crowd. there are changes. we started to see them last year and this year you have president trump and everyone seems to be all in. >> greg: i don't feel like you need cpac this year.

it's like a birthday cake after christmas. the fact that it's obama again, and we lost again. we lost again. now it's like you got divorced and you are remarried and everything is great. you don't have to talk about obama. what do you talk about now? i enjoyed them up there. it was a political version of a buddy cop movie. it was like reince priebus was billy rosewood from beverly hills cop and bannon. our may be reince priebus danny glover and bannon was mel gibso gibson. one smooths things over and one tells you how it is. >> eric: or crockett and tubbs. crockett was getting in a little bit of trouble. a couple very interesting

things. number one, bannon came straight out in the very beginning and said we will be grinding it through, the agenda. anyone who thought it was going to be this way, you got a heads up. and he said he clarified that donald trump is the one calling the shots. they are putting together strategy but it's donald trump making the calls. and he said you knew what our strategy was going to be. all you had to do was go to the rally scum of the speeches during the campaign and all donald trump right now is doing is methodically grinding out the promises he made on the campaign trail and that's why you see so much mirror of what he was talking about happening now. you've heard it 100 times bared what he said he's going to do, he's doing it. no surprise. bannon outlined three pillars of the strategy going forward. economic nationalism he talked about. national sovereignty and deconstruction of an administrative state.

i think that is so, so important. that's what donald trump won on. the insiders deconstructing the administrative state. i think he was speaking to the voters. they liked it. >> dana: part of that is the rolling back of the regulations and that the market is responding. today and tomorrow they have this platform where they get to go out and say we've been there a month. you're going to see a lot of activity of march. they have a full agenda and if you bear with me, i'm going to play this. he talks about what they should be held accountable for. >> if you want to see the trump agenda, it's simple. it was all in the speeches. he went to these rallies, speeches had a tremendous amount of content. all he's doing right now is laid out an agenda with the promises he made in the speeches and our job is to execute on that. simply get a path to how those get executed. he is maniacally focused on

that. you've seen the executive orders, the supreme court. and the other 102 judges that we are eventually going to pick, it's methodical. that's what the mainstream media won't report. >> dana: he is trying to say that the media has been focusing on process and some fights but behind the scenes, this is why i think the democrats are making a mistake, the policies being rolled out and they are not at the table to discuss it. >> kimberly: i thought he was a very persuasive advocate in terms of the message of the prospect, very consistent with what they were campaigning on this whole time and what drove them into the oval office. i love the fact he said hold us accountable and the fact he is saying listen, you've got to play like you are in last place. just because we won, don't get complacent. they are not going to let you take back your country. to me that was a call to arms which is necessary to motivate, rise up to support the

leadership you put in because now we are getting started. this is where the hard work begins. focusing on the fact that the president is going to be methodical in terms of going through and implementing all of the things he promised during the campaign, which i think is incredibly important because think about it. you have to have an eye toward reelection even already and you have to honor the promises that people who were so inspired and came out in record numbers to support him. sounds like he's focused while the media is busy trying to demonize him. >> dana: does the democratic party pay a lot of attention to cpac? >> not historically. it's a gathering of people on the conservative side. it's kind of a rally or boot camp especially for young people in the radio talk show hosts show. it's a celebration of people who are defining conservative. one of the ironies of this is conservatives used to stand for things like free trade.

conservatives used to be pro-immigration, for immigration reform and against big government and big government spending. you can't have that discussion at cpac this year. off the books. this is the trump cpac. kellyanne conway said it should be tpac. you get bannon sitting next to reince priebus and pretending everything is just kumbaya when we know it's not. but then you have a sense that he's going after the press. bannon particularly picking up on what is now the theme of going after the press. i think they need to stand for something and to me what was interesting was, you do not see them at cpac embracing the

alt-right which i think is the biggest news to come out of it. >> dana: dan schneider, if you have the title wrong. executive director of the american conservative union. his first, in his speech this morning, it was clear he wanted to set a marker that says the alt-right has no place here. >> juan: that's the news to me. >> eric: can i respond, conservatives are pro-immigration about legal immigration. and there's clearly no inside the white house, no kumbaya between these two guys. they looked great. they both said -- you could see they respected each other. how do we know that? he said we all know there is no kumbaya. >> juan: i think they have major policy and approach differences. approaches to policy differences and on the business about immigration,

"the wall street journal" this morning, their editorial was very clear and they are a big voice, to me, they are conservative. they are saying this is an invitation to big government overkill to go after people who are doing petty crimes and it's unnecessary and all conservatives should be concerned that government is being expanded and money is being spent that they don't have in order to do this. >> greg: nothing heels a rift better than winning. there's a lot of people in the room, including priebus, who thought trump was going to lose but he won. could you imagine cpac if trump had lost? it would have been a orgy of murderous cannibalism. would have been "game of thrones" in khakis. >> juan: when obama won the second term, it was about the

autopsy and the -- and who did the autopsy? reince priebus. it was about minority outreach. it was about being better understanding with minorities, especially immigrants in the hispanic community in order to build the republican brand. >> dana: i think what kimberly was saying is smart. this is a place where you can talk to the grassroots. they will show up and be supportive and this sets up nicely for president trump's first joint session of congress beach which is going to take place tuesday. we will have primetime coverage. >> greg: i don't think we are going to cover it at all. >> eric: is this now the new republican party? that's the big question. cpac has always been a quad site conservative/libertarian party. >> dana: this is where rand paul shown for years.

>> greg: 's followers were so hard-core and young. >> dana: i think they are energized. >> eric: as the faction of the libertarian party moved over to what juan calls -- >> kimberly: donald trump brought the party together. our -- it's not about the individual agendas. it's about the president and the movements. >> juan: i read something that captured it. it used to be that it was a pat buchanan popular slang that would get a third of the vote. especially the young people. they would show up at cpac. but now they run the whole dance. it's their party. >> dana: there are some things that conservatives from the reagan era will be like, i like that but i can't deal with that but overall i can be happy and

supportive if you are from that old school victorian age. more to come from cpac 2017 but democrats are going to choose their party's new leader and just 48 hours. are they contenders ready for the daunting task of rebuilding their party? they were focused last night on other things, like tearing down president trump. that's next. did you know 90% of couples disagree on

debate. instead of focusing and how to pull their party together, they are focused on the notion they are going to be able to impeach president trump. >> donald trump has done a number of things which legitimately raise the question of impeachment. i think we need to begin investigations to not go after donald trump but to protect our constitution and the presidency of the united states. >> when he commits an impeachable offense, the democratic party has to be the last line of defense for our constitution and for this country. we don't have the luxury to take a backseat, as this man is arrogantly marching us toward fascism. >> eric: a little hyperbole there. dana, representative ellison and former labor secretary perez, both top contenders. does ellison help his cause with his rhetoric? >> dana: we are not of the 447 members of the dnc. if i put myself in their shoes,

but i see them wanting to find somebody that they think is going to fight for them? just like on the republican side of things during the primary, they liked president trump as a candidate because they thought he will fight for us. so i understand from a strategic standpoint why they didn't go either after each other or talk about how they will do fundraising and grassroots. they think their enemy is president trump and they want to try to figure out a way to be the person that the dnc would want in that position. i personally don't think -- it doesn't work for me but again that doesn't matter. the 447 members of the committee get to decide. i wouldn't be surprised if the two top contenders, ellison and perez don't win on the first or second ballot. you could see a bit of a fight this weekend. >> eric: what are you hearing? perez says a couple dozen votes away from locking up. you hear a lot of people on the left saying that ellison is their guy. >> juan: is a split within the

democratic party. you look at who was backing ellison, it's interesting. ellison is basically bernie sanders. and then if you come to perez, it's obama and clinton. but then if you go to pete buttigieg, the mayor of south bend, indiana, our dean and former chairs are backing him. it's between ellison and going forward with what perez wants to do but don't forget the hispanic vote is our growing influence within the party and i think a lot a lot of people feel pressure to consider that and ellison, unfortunately for him, i'm not sure -- because he's muslim and the business about anti-semitism. >> eric: his relationship with louis farrakhan. >> kimberly: the theme of going after and attacking. creating the energy and

enthusiasm and everybody trying to squeeze into the last chair to the left of their opponent, choose me, she was me i think they feel there's a need for reform and overhaul of the democratic party. i think the minutes bears the truth out. and they say who was the best person to carry the charge, lead the mantle forward to resurrect those liberal routes and ideologies and actually know how to get them back in the white house and backing congress back in the senate. >> dana: also where they really failed in the last eight years is at the state and local level. having to rebuild. whoever takes the job has a lot of remodeling to do. >> eric: greg, you do an autopsy. what do they need to do? >> greg: seems like they are going the opposite direction. an autopsy would say find the middle. follow jim webb. don't follow jim jones but they are listening to their base, and

more of the dnc with years left, the happier the rnc will be. let them overdose on identity politics. that is their addiction. they should follow our example. we weren't calling for obama's impeachment until like 2010 bird we waited a good two years before we were doing it. i think we should help pay for, at no cost to them, all of their candidates history classes because they need to know what real fascism is before they throw that term around. these are people that push their ignorant progressive ideas that think somehow venezuela is the beacon of progress, telling us that trump is a fascist. you are morons. i >> eric: ahead, mexico. mr. trump sent his secretary of state and homeland security secretary across the border to ease concerns about deportations and more. didn't work? details next.

♪ >> kimberly: mexico is not happy with the trump administration's crackdown on illegal immigration's, specifically new orders to increase deportations. the president sent his homeland security secretary and secretary of state south of the border. rex tillerson this afternoon. >> we reiterated our commitment to law and order along the shared border by stopping potential terrorists and dismantling the transnational chemical networks moving drugs and people into the united states. similarly, we underscore the importance of stopping the illegal firearms and cash originating in the united states and flowing into mexico.

there is no mistaking that the rule of law matters along both sides of our border. >> kimberly: the president addressed his plans to deport criminal illegals, describing it as a military operation. >> president trump: you see what is happening at the border. we are getting gang members out, we are getting drug lords out. we are getting really bad dudes out of this country at a rate that nobody has ever seen before. it's a military operation because what has been allowed to come into our country, when you see gang violence that you've read about like never before. much of that is people here illegally. they are rough and tough but they are not tough like our people so we are getting them out. >> kimberly: sean spicer said he meant it as an adjective, meaning the process is happening with precision. john kelly says america won't unless the military to enforce immigration laws and vows there will be no mass deportation.

eric, this was a big focus in issue. people talk about mass deportations which is in and of itself term that suggests hysteria, suggests profiling, suggests racism and that's not what's happening. >> eric: the immigration order mirrors what the law was. it's no different than what the law under president obama was. it's no different than what president obama carried out with jeh johnson, the homeland security under president obama. the political article from january 4, 2016, talks about the policy of removing families, illegals, families. it got no pick up by mainstream media. trump mirrors the executive order that was obama's and all of a sudden he's a home wrecker, racist, bigoted, et cetera. can he just turn up the number of legal immigrants we are

taking and it's a simple answer for the people here illegally -- illegally who do not commit crime who want to stay, who are working. faking the fruit in california which is a legitimate job -- picking fruit in california. next to the dmv, create an msa. you are here legally illegally, walk in and start a visa progra program. work your way towards legal status. if that's it and it leads to them paying taxes and eventually becoming citizens, so be it. at least you're not deporting 11 million people. >> dana: it's an interesting point and i think there's one person who could take the sting out of the word amnesty and that's president trump. if they decide to go down the road of adding more legal immigration and they want to have people who are already here instead of having to send them back to their country, it could

work. when the problem eventually gets solved, it will look like something eric just described. in the meantime i think americans have to take secretary kelly at his word and he is saying this isn't how we are going to do it. i think the administration would benefit from him during the press conference where he is answering a lot of questions so that he can get himself on record because he's a very credible, trustworthy source and i think americans would feel better if they heard from him more directly. it >> kimberly: the man in charge of implementing this executive order. greg. >> greg: how can you reject your own citizens? we are trying to get you a favor by returning them back to your country. why don't you want them? why wouldn't you want them? was trump correct about some of them? if you ever problem with what we are doing, is it because people are sending money back or you don't want these people? it's ironic that we are a sanctuary country for their citizens. they are not a sanctuary country

for their own citizens. i came up with this solution. a two-state solution. the mexican president should announce on monday that the side of mexico is now a new and it will be our 51st date. if you don't want to be here, go to new california and you get a month to move and the people who want to leave mexico can leave new california and everybody will be happy. >> kimberly: oh, my god. i love it. >> eric: do we have to pay for the benefits? >> greg: they become citizens. they work. they become another state. >> kimberly: is this libertarian island? >> greg: it actually happened. in my bedroom. >> dana: all alone. >> juan: i don't think the trip went very well. mexican government came out and say we are not buying it.

were not going to cooperate. what happens when the mexican government says we are not going to cooperate. all those people coming up from south america. from other countries. if the mexican say we are not cooperating with the u.s., what about drugs? if mexicans don't cooperate stopping the drugs, it's not good. you hear from homeland security secretary. what are you going to do? >> greg: take mexican citizens and then send them back to mexico. >> juan: lots of mexicans who are here i think are the majority of illegal immigrants in the united states, they don't have necessary documentation of evidence of state. >> dana: they are going to be in limbo. >> greg: the new state. >> juan: my point is and your issue, there are big differences. when the president speaks about military precision, we see in the memo 10,000 more immigration

enforcement officers. 5,000 more border patrol agents. they are beefing up -- i'm going to come to that. the laws are different. even if you are charged with something and it hasn't been adjudicated, you have to go. if you have a fake social security number which people use for jobs, eve got to go. even 10,000 miles from the border, now it's different than what obama was doing. >> kimberly: we have to say time. >> dana: thank you, camilli for giving me a chance. we have to remember that the mexican government and the mexican people are about to head into a election. it's going to play out and they are going to try to move farther left. that's why you also saw attention. >> kimberly: good job. next, we turn to the protests at some g.o.p. town halls. mainstream media has been giving synthetic coverage of angry crowds and leaving out some important details. stay tuned.

this morning, i agree with you about how funny he was. when hannity started doing the show solo, about eight months later, there was an april fools' day show and this is what happened. >> all that plus the anti-american panel tonight. grab your hammer and sickle. got you. >> dana: it will be sweet to fight for you to talk to sean, who was very fond of alan pray they had a great relationship. >> juan: i have been sitting in for alan on his radio show and the audience loves alan. they are constantly asking how is alan? when his alan coming back? they loved to argue with alan. we are mostly a conservative audience and they are in love with alan colmes. if you listen to the tapes of

alan arguing with the audience, not only is a great conversation in the way that you heard from kimberly that he was a great interviewer. it was funny, absolutely funny. his producer today saying so many tributes online, so many twitter tributes. alan colmes, you will never be forgotten. rest in peace, good friend. head to our facebook page and see the tribute. you will love it. we will be right back. when they actually did start saving. this gap between when we should start saving and when we actually do is one of the reasons why too many of us aren't prepared for retirement. just start as early as you can. it's going to pay off in the future. if we all start saving a little more today, we'll all be better prepared tomorrow. prudential. bring your challenges.
