the media to it so by twitter criticizing the news coverage of the investigation into the russian effort to influence the presidential election. >> fox news has learned that sean spicer is taking several steps to crackdown on possible possible leaks coming from inside the white house. christian is joining us live at the white house with the latest details. what can you tell us. >> senior administration officials has just confirmed the extent which white house price secretary is willing to go to try to plug all the leaks that keep seeping out of the white house. according to the senior administration official last week he called nearly two dozen staffers into the white house and asked to hand over their phones to prove that nothing nothing to hide that they were not the leakers. he warned all staffers in the room that round one of this was a recess compared to what would happen in round two. here we have a leak about about what was

supposed to be a private meeting about stopping leaks. it's safe to say that press secretary is not pleased about how this is coming out. the night goes on. tonight is a big night at the white house. the president of the first lady are preparing to host their very first big social event at the white house. the annual black-tie ball for all of the nation's governors. they should be arriving here in about one hour. president trump just posted big governor tonight at the white house, much, much to be discussed, including healthcare. healthcare will play an essential role in his first address to congress. many lawmakers return from their district and tough town halls. they want to know what president trump plans to do to replace the affordable care act. also also details about the tax reform plan. the treasury secretary said that president will talk about his tax plan on tuesday night.

he gave us a preview of what it will include. listen listen. >> on the personal side, it's about tech simplification, pure tax brackets, simpler taxes and creating a middle income tax cut. that's a focus on personal taxes. on business on business tax it's about making u.s. companies competitive. >> reporter: the day after he delivers that speech, president trump is expected to sign a revised version of the executive order and immigration. this is shaping up to be a big week for president trump in the white house. perhaps the biggest week so far his presidency spee-01. >> is on the tree president discussed health care for moment. it's expected to talk about it during the speech on tuesday. this has this is congressional republicans are preparing to unveil their plan tomorrow to repeal obama care. the party calling on gop governors in washington to help

craft an expansion. only those people who are enrolled under obama care. some some studies show some states medicaid spending is exploded under obama care. we are live in washington with more. >> reporter: medicaid reform will be a big part of the debate for any replacement plan. more than half of the country's governors has a big stake in how it works out. under the four double care act 31 states expanded medicaid and that government covered almost the entire cost of the 11 million people. with expected cuts to medicaid, the states don't want to lose funding which would result in people losing coverage. in the 19 other states who did not expand it will be shortchanged. they spent a lot of time at the conference in d.c. trying to work out a compromise.

>> we have a mix between people who took the expansion from medicaid and who inherited expansion and others who do not take it at all. we are try to find a balance where we do no harm, no harm no reward for states who did or did not take the expansion. >> reporter: one thing they agree on is the federal government needs to give the states more flexibility to set up and administer medicaid which would allow more innovation and make it better for their states. the red state governors have been discussing ideas with the president and health and human services and they plan to push for changes. >> will see what those details are when they are in vail tomorrow. >> the latest on investigation involving a suspect facing a felony charged accused of driving a truck into a parade on saturday night injuring 20 people.

the 28-year-old could be facing five years behind bars. new orleans police are saying more charges could be filed as the investigation continues. here's the latest outside of new orleans. >> reporter: the man is set to make is the first court appearance any minute. it comes after we are learning more about what happened last night. the firefighter says he pulled him out of his truck and said he was curled up in a fetal position after the crash. authorities say his blood all call content level was three times above the legal level. that happened during the parade, one of the biggest and most popular there is. thousands of people in the area when his truck lost control, hit several cars and barreled into the crowd. dozens were injured including a one-year-old-year-old and a police officer. twenty-one people had to be rushed to hospitals. none have life-threatening

injuries which is remarkable when you hear about how many people were hurt. >> it's a dramatic situation. a lot of the people here have been scared not knowing what happened. they could not not all see it. there are so many people around. >> reporter: the man was taken into custody on the same. he does not have any previous arrest but faces a number of charges including vehicular negligence. >> that is a felony charge. zero - 55 years in jail is what he is facing. it is probate of all, no mandatory minimum on the charge. he has a charge of hit-and-run driving. i don't think that charge will stick. he was in an accident, the two cars went off the side of the road and then he crashed into the barricade. >> reporter: with the parades continuing to go on people are asking how a car was able to get that close to so many people.

there were no barricades blocking the cars from the public. we have learned there will be increased security throughout the rest of mardi gras which culminates on fat tuesday. >> thank you. >> .. to washington. just past the first month in office for president trump. some say he has a record that no chief executive would envy, so far only 14 of 22 cabinet seats have been filled. the longest confirmation delay for any modern president. republicans are pointing the finger at the senate democrats who continue to drag their heels on all of the nominees. lauren has more from washington. >> reporter: the president is setting a record he likely does not want. his cabinet is taking far longer to be confirmed than the last six a ministrations. for contacts, president president bush had his cabinet confirmed in two weeks. we are five weeks out and still eight members are hanging in limbo.

>> howard administration is running with great efficiency even though i still do not have my cabinet approved. nobody mentions that. it is just delay, delay, delay. it's really sad. >> reporter: here is a look at the nominees still waiting for full senate confirmation. a cabinet level positions, for have passed through anita. it vote. coates awaiting a senate meeting and light heiser, purdue and acosta have no hearing at all. the labor secretary is scheduled for a vote tomorrow night. democrats have been dragging their feet on every nominee. the majority of the votes had been partyline and democrats have vowed to continue to slow down because they don't have the best interest of americans in mind. >> president trump talks about being the party of american people but he put together administration with more

billionaires and millionaires in his cabinet and administration any president in history. he has appointed people who are gonna decimate the needs of elderly, children and more. >> reporter: we expect the senate to vote to break a filibuster on congressman think he who's up for interior secretary. >> the stars are getting red carpet ready for tonight's oscar celebration. we will take you there for a preview of what to expect on hollywood's biggest night. >> 2000 miles to the east of hollywood in washington, a big night big week coming up. president trump give his first speech to the joint session of congress in just over 48 hours from now. what he will say, what will be proposed and how congress will react, that is up next. tais really quite simple.est it comes in the mail, you pull out the tube and you spit in it, which is something southern girls are taught you're not supposed to do.

you seal it and send it back and then you wait for your results. it's that simple.

>> i think the what the president is going to do during his speeches talk about the accomplishment of his first month in office and executive orders. the second thing is the economic security our country needs. that is about education and jobs. that's very important. >> uma: that from a former campaign manager.

on what we can expect from president trumps a speech to congress on tuesday. others d.c. analyst like karl rove are offering the presidents of advice in the wall street journal article. to expand expand the appeal beyond the course of orders on tuesday, mre skeptical's and that means focusing on the economy and offering a positive tone rather than a divisive and dark one. the closer it is in style and substance to his remarks at last weekend's campaign stop the less likely his approval numbers are to rise. joining us is a jeff mason who is a white house correspondent and president of the white house correspondent association. the annual dinner in april he just announced he will not attend. if we kaput up the exact tweet that he sent out yesterday, he basically writes, i will not be attending the white house correspondent association dinner this year. please wish everyone well and have a great evening. did this come as a big

disappointed to? >> it was a surprise. it was not something we were expecting to hear leslie. the dinner is a couple of months away. we are working hard to plan for its. it will take place on aprip decides to come or not. it celebrates the first amendment, celebrates good political journalism our members have done over the last year and gives out scholarships to the next generation of scholarship journalist. >> uma: has there been any indication happened to this point that it was all systems go? >> we had not talked about it much. we spent the first months as working really hard on access issues at the white house. on working to make sure journalist have an opportunity to ask questions of the president and press secretary. during the first month despite many negative rhetoric from

president trump and his aides, the access at the white house has been good. we have worked hard to build a constructive relationship. we would like to showcase that relationship and the fact that it can be constructive at that dinner. we would have liked to have the president come. if he changes his mind, he is welcome. >> uma: that is good to know. let's move move on to the state of the union speech. a lot of people are focusing on with high expectations, hoping there will be a more positive tone in that speech. the white house is promising it will be. what do you think that karl robe is saying that they have to appeal beyond the base. he has to go forward and appeal to those who are skeptical of him at this point. go be on the executive orders and talk about big issues like the budget, tax reform, and healthcare. >> the president has spent quite a bit of time in his first four

weeks in office appealing to his political base. what carl is saying is there is a broader group outside in the united states who did not necessarily support president trump. who he needs to reach out to. this is in the state of the union address but it is an opportunity to do that. people will be listening for his tone and listening for what type of policy issues he touches on. some of those are likely to include infrastructure, healthcare and taxes. >> a lot oppose coming out recently showing his approval rating is lower than presidents from the past at the same time in their administration. that's when you compare back to obama or bush, their approval approval ratings were higher five weeks into the administration. what you make of that and that being part of a backdrop going into the state of the union

address? >> every president or white house as they do not care about polls, but deep down they do. that is something that creates a political capital for a president and administration to get things done. you cannot argue that president trump has not gotten a lot done in the first month, whether it is things that people who oppose him agree with or not. he has gone through a lot to do list of promises as a candidate. boosting up those poll numbers would be helpful if he wants to do other things that both legislatively and broadly throw the country. >> there are many same what he needs to show now is his willingness to work with congress on the bigger issues. but he needs to lay out a plan in terms of bringing congress together working with both democrats and republicans. >> the truth is that you cannot ever think by executive order. he is not the only president who has learned that. he will see will see that going forward in

the coming months. he wants to appeal and reap place obama care in the way to do that is through legislation. he wants to do tax reform and that has to be legislative in the same with infrastructure. to be able to succeed legislatively he will need to reach out to republicans in congress, some in his own party who is skeptical of him and democrats who are skeptical. he has an interest in getting things done, he's really made that clear. it will be interesting to see how he does that. >> we should see what lies ahead. i know a lot of folks are anxious to see what he has to say in his first address to congress. i know you will keep a close watch on that as well. >> eric: from politics just showbiz, show business especially at the academy awards. the 89th annual ceremony tonight. you. you are looking my but that crowded red carpet with all of the beautiful people. the ceremony about to begin two hours from now.

lali and has been leading the way with the record-tying 14 oscar dodds including one for best picture. in that crowd is michael, as you can see on the red carpet in his dapper white dinner jacket they would call it. hello. >> reporter: it is a tough group out here. i have to represent faxon style. this is the moment we have been building up to throughout award season. they're about about to celebrate the best in film. it could be one of the most charged show in years. it started with meryl streep and the speech at the golden globes. in case in case you missed it, this is what you can look forward to tonight. >> the countdown to the oscars continues, musical phenomenal lala land is nominated for best picture.

>> this year lala land doesn't have a lot, it has a deathlike grip on this best pitcher category. >> and the supporting actor categories viola davis is expected to win her winning street incenses. ali will likely take home his goal in moonlight. >> at some point you have to decide for yourself. >> i think ali is getting enormous traction for moonlight. i think jeff bridges is still a possibility but he has won the oscar before and not too long ago. as for the lead acting categories, there down to two front runners. >> you can pick too soon. casey aflac may have peaked too soon. he was considered the front runner for a long time and suddenly there's a negative campaign against him personally

and then sell now has the momentum. >> there are two candidates in it tight race for best actress. i think it is going to be emma stone. they are both extraordinary performances. emma stone plays a more sympathetic character in the movie we like more. >> win or lose, all of the nominees can celebrate the attention their films generate leading up to hollywood's biggest night. >> reporter: the carpet is heating up, i'm about 3 feet away from -- from hamilton who is performing tonight and upper best song, if he wins he will not only be an emmy, grammy and tony winner, but also the first

-- winner because he also has a pulitzer prize. >> if you have not seen hamilton show it's an amazing production. i think i saw his father just behind you. he has a ponytail and been a longtime democratic -- we can't see. there he is. just have him on the shoulder. well that would be rude. >> talking to hbo, asia. >> eric: it would be amazing if he gets the oscar tonight for the animated film. there he goes. michael, he scooting away. >> congratulations. were on fox news tonight. if you win tonight you would also be the first peek got winner. >> i think it would be the third, not that i'm counting.

it's incredible. you never start writing stuff for that reason, but it's crazy. >> it what an incredible year how does it feel. >> it's a dream come true. i'm here with my mom who i've been watching the oscars since i was ten years old. we get to go to a fancy movie prom tonight. >> i'm excited for my son. this is what he dreamed of since he was very young. >> reporter: congratulations. we got it, thanks to you. >> eric: michael, thank you. >> uma: that was great. thank you michael. shifting gears. iran's military was a show of force launching naval drills off southern coast. it's for sense president trump took office. this is the former president sends a letter to president trump, what he has to say about corruption and u.s. politics.

>> we have a winner in nascar, there he is after 200 laps and 500 miles, kurt busch has won the 2017 daytona 17 daytona 500. congratulations to kurt busch for winning the great race. >> uma: iran's military with the new show of force carrying out a series of naval drills off the southern coast. the today exercise taking place were nearly one third of all oil is treated by see passes. we have more from jerusalem. >> reporter: iran's naval exercises, mid- growing tensions between the trump administrations in tehran.

in just three weeks after the ministration put iran on notice after the islamic republic testfired a ballistic missile, iranian state tv said the drills near the strategic strait and the sea of oman are being held to improve its readiness against threats including piracy and terrorism. drills include naval ships and helicopters and will take place across 2 million square kilometers. nearly one third of all oil traded by see passes through the straight. it has been a scene of several confrontations between iran and the u.s. last month an american destroyer fired warnings shots at the vessels after they approached the u.s. ship at high-speed's. the jewels do not involve any of iran's elite revolutionary guard. the military first that the u.s. often battles with. there is no doubt the drills will be watched by president trump who has vowed to take a

higher harder line with iran than the previous obama administration. >> uma: thank you. guess who's back? former i ranney president, turns out he has written a long, detailed letter to president trump critical of some of his policies specifically the white house travel ban, he also brands that the u.s. system in the letter as corrupt and as the tehran times headline says he backs trumps stance against political elites and media. the previously served as advisor to the obama campaign form policy team and former state department official. it's good to see. the letter is 3500 words, nine pages, what do nine pages, what do you suppose is the former president's purpose in sending

the star committed to chief? >> the letter is delusional and has lots of flowery language which is typical of that culture. it wanders into serious indictments of american policy and all of them are complete propaganda, not true. very damaging to america. some of them are in line with some of the things president trump has said. so they're picking up on the criticisms trump is set about america and using them to criticize. >> you're not equating that with our president, but what you think this has in common? >> he says president trump you're right that the electoral system in america is broken. that goes back to the statement that there's fraudulent voters which he had no support from. he criticizes the press is trumps right to criticize the press. he wants to criticize the press

because he doesn't like how he's covered. but a lot of the bad press is very much warranted and it describes the situation very accurately which doesn't allow freedoms and fair elections. so in that way for him to draw parallels between iran and america in between trump statements and his own statements about america is quite dangerous and misleading. >> the national counselor and that -- to get executed in prisons. let me read you online for this he calls the president your excellency. your excellency has announced you want to change the status quo to people's benefit. your excellency has truthfully described the system as corrupt and anti- public. the u.s. electoral system has enslaved peoples votes to help a

group that tyrants to global wealth and power. that is the constant reframing i have interviewed him against imperialist what he calls imperialist the power structure of the west in this thing. this fits into that continued view. >> it does. his allegations are ridiculous. our electoral system is not perfect, but iran's is 100 times worse. iran's is hundred times worse. iran's is not fair, it's not free and for him to be sitting there criticizing our electoral system is really outrageous. we cannot accept those criticisms. i hope someone will respond and perhaps there's no reason to respond to some of the stupid things but we don't need your advice and if you want to write letters and put them on the internet,. >> what you just reference turns a democracy, he praised praised and said iran has the best

democracy in the world, how he won reelection. listen to what he said. >> i would be the first person who wants democracy in my country. i am the result of a democracy the way i see it, the highest level of democracy in history, the best democracy to say i have received over two and a half times more votes that american presidents have. >> in the interview he's actually saying that he's got more votes like it's legitimate than our democracy in this republic. >> he sounds delusional, he is delusional, delusional, he has no industry of himself aggrandizing himself in his own position. he did that with his un speech as well. >> he has blamed the u.s. for 911 so finally what he think we should do. as you a reference

not responding, he is written letters before part of his -- should the state department react? should the white house say anything or should we ignore it. >> we should probably just ignore it because let's hope we don't encourage him to write more letters. he's pretty irrelevant at this point. he was thinking about running for president in may he was told by the grand ayatollah that they did not want him to run, that usually means you have to follow that. he's unlikely to run. his from the hardliner side of iran they don't have him as a candidate or any other candidate and are likely not to prevail in the elections in may which is good for iran and america. we should probably ignore him. let's hope if he wants to express his views he doesn't send us letters.

>> it could be significant that he represents the hardliners, do you think this is a way for the hardliners to respond to the tougher stance that the president has laid on iran especially sense the wargames in the straight of it the administration has said they're putting iran quote, unnoticed. >> the hardliners are searching for provocation to provoke a reaction and this could be part of it or it could be on his own trying to make himself more relevant and make the hardliner stand more relevant. it's unlikely to work but it is getting coverage and that's what he wanted. >> eric: exactly. we'll see if there's a reaction to the white house. thank you for your insight and your analysis. of a guy that we thought we would not hear from again. but, he is back. >> uma: as we have been reporting the stars are getting set for hollywood's biggest night.

take a look. your see my pictures of the scene at the oscars, how political with a speeches get? will take you there for a preview, that and more ahead. look at that crowd. we asked a group of young people when they thought they should start saving for retirement. then we asked some older people 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.

>> uma: is going to be a bumpy road. where expecting to hear some political speeches from people who know it's a huge audience, hundred miller people around the world. they might take a moment because the not big fans of the white house that might offer up some thoughts on the presidency. where expecting that and also may be some surprises in store. overall for best picture we thinking. >> the headline will see tomorrow lala land dances off with best pitcher, pretty much a sure thing. the question is whether they win the oscar, the question is how many do they win. if it wins 12 oscars it would break the record. if it wins 11 it will tied the record. their upper 14 academy awards, that's a record that's a record in itself. only two others have achieved

that the titi and 111 oscars. i think lala bland as well but does not break records. >> it's a musical that has actually become a best picture favorite. >> musicals have done well over the years but the academy is inconsistent. sometimes it's a dark, gritty traumas and other times it's right musicals like lala bland. i think think they take best picture, best director, and at the age of 32 he will be the youngest winner in the categories history. another big win will be best asked stress, emma stone. she is wonderful in the film. she's sings and dances, she's one of the precursor prices, the golden globe well award. normally if you you win those you with the oscar as well. she is not a lock on this. just tough competition from natalie court men who played jacqueline kennedy.

and also from a french actress. most people don't know that film it's appear that she's the meryl streep of france. this is her first oscar nomination. she has a one critic awards. she has a chance but in the end i think i think we'll see, stone onstage accepting the oscar. >> a lot of people are counting on the denzel washington but it's not a lock. >> if this were election night it is too close to call. it's between casey aflac and denzel washington from the drama, fences. i would think the edge has to go to denzel washington. it's a dramatic performance and he is a hollywood favorite. then sell already has two oscars

for the film's glory in training day. if he wins again he'll be the fourth living% of three oscars. that's he's in distinguish company. so congratulations to him. >> it's a powerful performance. casey aflac was great and i think with the dental onstage. >> uma: when you think some of the interesting surprises will come for other categories like the best for film and all that. >> i think the best foreign language film will see the salesman when. there's a lot of politics surrounding it. getting back to the big categories the best supporting categories is men a lot of surprises. moonlight is a film has been a

favorite with the critics. eight nominations and i think it wins for supporting actor. there is a chance for -- in line, wonderful performance. he also played in a best pitcher of 2008. all he. all he looks like the favorite. best supporting actress probably the biggest block of the night, -- davis. she is phenomenal. phenomenal. she won the tony award for the same role and broadway. she has never won, she's a slamdunk. when she wins, she will win, shall become the 23rd triple crown acting winter. those have won the oscar, emmy and have won the oscar, emmy and tony. not even meryl streep has accomplish that. congratulations she's a brilliant actress. >> uma: she's a amazing actress. it's so good to see you. it's a big night for hollywood. hopefully we'll do it again next

year thank you so much.s ] we'll take a break and come back with more after the. [ rumbling ]
