3:06 am
you know, join and continue to espouse the agenda of the previous administration. i don't think it should come at any surprise that there are people that burrowed in to government during 8 years of the last administration and, you know, may have believed in that agenda and want to continue to seek it i don't think that should come as a surprise to anyone. pete: while what attorney general jeff sessions did was unprecedented. the resistance facing this white house is the depth of opposition. not just in the media but within the bureaucracy. abby: and the leaks that have been terrible e. pete: totally, you know, working to undermine president trump. if you think about it, you mentioned it already. if you are at dhs you can't have attorney general there that's going to enforce the law different view of illegals. a big blame america first crowd from the obama campaign. why would you not get rid of them. e.p.a. he zealots. education department. union loyalists who believe in common core at the v.a. status quo defenders. if you don't get rid of the folks in the middle management

pete: 325,000 little flowers if you will. fantastic news even without real policy change. consumer sentiment. big number to me was manufacturing jobs. i don't know if you can put that back up, but manufacturing jobs created in february. 28,000. the previous average for the two years previous to this, the average monthly increase was 2,000. 2,000. that's 28,000 manufacturers blue collar, exactly the type of jobs that president trump said he he wanted to bring back to the country. that's a huge number. if you can add on to that number can you see the folks that voted for him that wanted an economy that worked for middle class americans would be very thankful for the new era. abby: take a look at the labor participation rate, for example. 63%. that's the only time it has hit that mark over the past 35 months. the economy has been ticking up even under former president obama. i think the big thing in the last two months is where these jobs are going, right? manufacturing, freezing rain structure, mining, also better paying jobs.
3:09 am
that was the big message that president trump had on the campaign trail i'm going to bring jobs back to this country, jobs that matter to you. clayton: labor participation rate talked about. so often we were talking about the last few years when you looked at the unemployment numbers it didn't take into account all the people going out seeking jobs. they were just staying home. not even filing to go out to look for jobs. that number didn't account for that here is something you should look out for because the fed looking to raise interest race now because of this good news. you are thinking about big a home and lock in a rate on 30 year mortgage now is the time to do it because the fed looks to raise interest rates. abby: also with the stock market, there is a lot of optimism, huge signal to the administration to follow through on promises in four years that's going to be how it is all judged, right? what they get done, tax reform may happen as soon as august that might be sooner -- may be too soon. pete: healthcare thing is going to be big.

house this week and tea party patriots co-founder jenny beth martin joins us now. good morning, thank you for being here. first of all, in your meeting with the president about the repeal and replacement of obamacare. did you hear things that you liked and where do you currently stand on the bill? >> well, good morning and thanks for having me. when i met with the president along with a few other groups, who have serious concerns about this current healthcare bill, we -- i think that we left the meeting feeling encouraged because the president listened to what we had to say and with we what we thought the problems were with the current bill and what we think some solutions to our problems could be. that's far more than what we had from the leadership either the house or the senate in the last several years. so we feel like this is a step in the right direction. he did not promise to make changes, but did he not promise not to make changes either. pete: sure. here is what speaker ryan who

3:19 am
repeal the insurance company mandates. especially those relating to the preexisting conditions. now, there are other ways to take care of people who have preexisting conditions and we are in favor of some of that block granting money to high risk pools and making it where we can purchase insurance away from our employers with tax deductible money either with hsa or some other tax deduction so that we aren't reliant on our employers. if we did that and we could keep our jobs when we become the most sick, we're far less likely to get in a situation where we have a preexisting condition when we have to quit our job because we are sick. so that's the first thing. repeal it. and then that is what the people from tea party patriots have been saying. if we don't -- pete: sure. >> senator promised he would repeal this law root and branch. he didn't say i'm going to get

4:03 am
i don't want any backlash like sean spicer. very meticulous to make sure the flag was good to go. this administration has accomplished more things in the first 50 days which are pro keeping the promises which the president outlined in the campaign still the mainstream media doesn't understand why is he doing. this he promised one thing and now illustrating that. look at what they have been able to achieve in the first 50 days and consumer confidence and $3 trillion of money which has been added to the stock market since donald trump has been elected by all accounts from the economic side of things he has to get an a. employment is -- unemployment rate is down to 4.7. over 235,000 new jobs. and if you look at the combined jobs between january and february combined, highest amount of jobs created since 2009, i believe. consumer confidence the highest it has been since 2009. right track-wrong track of the direction of the country first time it's been positive since 2000. things are moving in the right direction. consumer confidence is high. that's because the president is continuing to hold to his promises.
4:04 am
pete: corey, one place pick up a mulligan do things over at 50-day mark what would be be. >> rolled out a new executive order which was much clearer. it was going to be implemented later this week so there is some more time there. and i think if they would have rolled this one out first it probably would have been better. that said e the president's first and highest priority has been and will always be to protect the citizens of this great country for all enemies both foreign and domestic. that's what this foreign order does. abby: at this very time last saturday we got this tweet from president trump about being wiretapped at trump tower. house intelligence leaders have given the doj a deadline by monday to get some sort of evidence if there was any sort of wiretapping. you were on last night with justice with judge jeanine. clayton: last week. abby: you said you had
4:05 am
evidence that jeff sessions was listened in to when he was in the senate. let's take a listen to that. >>what we have seen from the previous administration is that they did spend time listening to conversation between then senator jeff sessions and ambassador to russia while he was in his u.s. senate office. if that were to take place, which supposedly did take place, who other conversations did they listen in on? be a what evidence do you have of that? big statement to makes a you said who is to say it hasn't happened with other people? >> take place very concerning to us. what we know is that u.s. intelligence community has been listening to conversations by u.s. citizens. we know that for sure because mime flynn was picked up on a u.s. intercept somewhere. i haven't read the transcript but that is what has been widely reported. there has been a number of reports that the previous administration applied for a warrant under fisa twice once in july or june and then once again in october. are they listening to u.s.
4:06 am
conversations taking place? if that is the case that's very concerning. because of there is real concerns about that. what we need to do is get to the bottom of this. committees up on the hill should make a full and accurate investigation to determine if the previous administration used any of their resources pejoratively against the incoming administration or individuals there. so if the previous administration were spying on u.s. citizens, we have to have accountability. let's get to the bottom of it. clayton: you brought up mike flynn. let's talk about him for a second. obviously big story this week being paid by the turkish government $500,000 to help the erdogan administration. did anyone in the trump administration or transition team know about him being paid? he even released an opinion piece in the paper at one point on election day, i believe did. anyone in the trump administration or the transition team know about him being paid by the turkish government? >> i can't answer that
4:07 am
definitively i don't know if he informed somebody or not. i can tell you this, as soon as the president made the determination that mike flynn's credibility was no longer intact because he was not honest with the vice president. he immediately called for his resignation because of the president will not tolerate that from anybody. if he is was not forthcoming with outside relationships. he should have been. mike has gone back and filed the paperwork retroactively for his relationship there. that all should have been disclosed right up front. if that would have been disclosed there would have been a different situation. i can tell you this, if you can't be honest with the president and vice president then have you no position in this administration. pete: corey, you mentioned this investigation earlier. the original origin of the investigation is to find out if there was strange and nefarious collusion between the trump campaign and russians. it's a narrative that the media continues to push continue toes to be no evidence.
4:08 am
we will play a montage of the media's coverage and get to you react. >> we keep getting new information about troubling ties between the president and his associates and his campaign and russia and increasingly with each new day. >> said there was no indication of collusion between the russians and anyone in the white house. >> we have no evidence yet one way or the other. all. >> all this sort of odd, i have to say tantalizing evidence of some kind of collusion or certain little indication of some kind of collusion. >> do you know of any hard evidence of collusion between what i call trump world and the russians. >> chris, i have no hard evidence of collusion. >> the growing evidence of the trump-russia connection threatens to consume the opening months of donald trump's presidency. pete: corey, as you know the media has gone nuts allegations for wiretapping and surveillance against the then candidate trump. yet, when they look at something like russian collusion. they are obsessing over something that there still
4:09 am
appears to be no evidence that there was ever any collusion. >> look. there is no evidence. if there was evidence i'm sure by now the mainstream media would have found it and brought it to light. their favorite thing is to go after donald trump the piñata. that's what they want to do. topic of this week go after donald trump and his campaign. they can't get over the fact that the american people have decided that they want fundamental and wholesale change in washington. they are still fighting an election in november. here's the difference. there is no connection between donald trump and the russians in any way, shape, or form. i spent 18 months standing stang next to this individual 18 hours a day. never every ever ever did i see, hear, or intimate donald trump having anything to do with the russians or russian government or anything in between. and i was there never have i had any contact with the russian government. i can't be more clear about this. and the president can't be more clear about this. nothing to see. time for the mainstream media focuses on donald trump is
4:10 am
keeping campaign promises. replacing and repealing let's get off this false narrative for a change. abby: you gave the president a positive grade 51 days now. what do you grade the team around and people he has appointed to really be the ones in his ear every day everybody him navigate this new role being president. he has never been a politician before. he has also hired a lot of people not been in government before. you have been a little bit critical of that. do you think there needs to be some changes? >> i haven't been critical. what i said is that the president is getting the best advice possible. when i looks at general mattis and secretary kelly and tillerson and cabinet level, i think these people have the very, very best. if you listen to john mccain, someone who has been quick to criticize the president in the past. the team he has put around him at the cabinet level is some of the best he has ever seen on the foreign policy side.
4:11 am
mcmaster. he best people giving advice to the president. these career politicians who surround themselves with career staff are not what the american people wanted. i above the fact that donald trump brought in kellyanne conway, he steve bannon. jared kushner. people who don't have government experience. time to put a fresh set of eyes on washington, d.c. bring those people in don't have 30 years of encumbrance to put a new way of celebrating in washington. that's exactly what the president sur rowfnedded himself with and i like that allot. pete: certain live what he is attempting to do. corey lewandowski thank you for being here. abby: hjudge james robart says he will not carry over state despite request from several state attorney generals. six states fighting order

♪ >> he well, attorney general jeff sessions drains the swamp at the doj by asking the remaining obama era u.s. attorneys to resign. democrats and the liberal press are shocked by the move. isn't this just part of a normal transition. pete: if you read those headlines right there you would think it's something out of the ordinary. here to discuss is "washington times" columnist charlie hurt. it's a purge at doj. what is it really? >> well, first of all, it's a very smart move on the part of attorney general sessions. you know, what we have seen over the past 8 years with obama and eric holder has been one of the most politic sized departments of justice that we have ever seen certainfully modern times. this is something that needed to happen. of course, it would eventually happen anyway because the incoming president can support his own prosecutors. the problem here is that
4:18 am
democrats in congress have demonstrated that they have absolutely no interest whatsoever in helping the president get replacements confirmed. the other problem is, you know, the vast majority of career prosecutors that we have in this country, career prosecutors are very good people. dedicated hard-working people. we have seen these leaks particularly from doj. careerists in the department that something has to be done with them. all sorts of rules con strange. something has to be done getting the swamp fully drained. clayton: why do you think it's important for the trump administration to remove these obama era attorneys? >> well, because, of course, these are all positions that are presidentially a.ed or nominated and confirmed by the senate. so this is in the prerogative of the president. but in terms of, you know,
4:19 am
what we saw under eric holder and barack obama in terms of, you know, the black lives matter movement the politicizing race. all of these things not going after illegal immigration. all of these things are vitally important. these are things that president trump ran on. and he has the right, he has the obligation, even to install prosecutors who are going to make the same priorities that he campaigned on. which are a reflection priorities that the american voters want. and that's why this is so vitally important. pete: when you look at the priorities of the president you said this was going to happen at doj facing out these attorneys. what other department and what other place would you like to see him be even more aggressive in draining that swamp if you wave a magic wand? >> oh my goodness. state department. i would start with state department and those early leaked phone calls between president trump and other foreign leaders are a prime example of.

people judging people how they look and act. that's exactly what she did. and to kind of break her narrative, you know, she was making fun of my hairstyle. not just mine, others. at cpac, you know. trying to make fun of the so-called at-right conservatives, you know. to break her narrative. i have been, you know, i have been vocal against the president since day one. i have been part of the never trump movement as i mentioned earlier yesterday. and i'm actually a registered democrat. so, it kind of breaks her narrative and, again, the message is just really it's just inconsiderate and rude. i understand she has the right to say it, but, again, to just throw people together and to mock someone based on their look, it's just inappropriate. abby: yeah, it is certainly inappropriate. have you a go fund me page. have you raised what, $95,000 now.

are, jeepers, it let's the bad guys know how we monitor them. let's criminal know. the problem with that it doesn't just place military and state department people at risk. it places other people at risk. particularly, if it allows our islamist enemies to go invisible because they develop work-arounds. that's particularly troublesome. pete: are you worried about the culture or climate in our intelligence agencies right now that you have got people inside there seeking to undermine trump and his administration and are doing so through concerted effort to leak information that's classified. >> these guys aren't up against theman and the machine. they are criminals. they are terrorists. it bothers me that we have these people embedded in our system who are working so hard and so diligently to undermine the legitimacy of our government. part of the way treated over the last 8 years or. so where it seems like people were more interested in

pete: honestly when did you come up with this idea i'm going to write a book that has nothing in it to make a statement. >> i wish there were a better story to tell. it really just occurred to me on a weekend sitting at my kitchen table. the idea that came to me and i think the reason this has taken off and struck such a chord is that the title says it all. the democratic party isn't offering any reason to vote for them. hillary clinton's campaign was a campaign run against president trump. and if president trump taught us anything, it's that a good sense of humor can do tremendous work in the realm of politics. abby: well, you are self-published as well. did you dry to sell this to anyone? any publishers? were there any takers or was there response like no one is going to buy this book, michael, it's a blank book? >> yeah, believe it or not, all the university presses turned me down. i sort of thought for a fun little effort like this that self-publishing would be just fine and i think amazon self-publishing is very happy

with the results of this. clayton: i bet so. >> thanks for viewers like "fox & friends." when i went on last week the book was number 6 worldwide. by the time that segment walls over we had reached number one. it really struck a chord, i think. this is an old joke. this has been around in america since the 1880 presidential election actually publishing a blank book about your opponent i like their achievements. right now at this moment i think president obama and hillary clinton have just disseminated that party all they have to offer are shrieking vulgarity at aimless s protests and sort of bizarre and untactics like wearing pussy hats. >> if you are planning on the audio book version of this i would be happy to do it for you. you got your manual. >> we'll be taking auditions very shortly.

(laughs) that was my movantik moment. my doctor told me that movantik is specifically designed for oic and can help you go more often. don't take movantik if you have a bowel blockage or a history of them. movantik may cause serious side effects, including symptoms of opioid withdrawal, severe stomach pain and/or diarrhea, and tears in the stomach or intestine. tell your doctor about any side effects and about medicines you take. movantik may interact with them causing side effects. why hold it in? have your movantik moment. talk to your doctor about opioid-induced constipation. if you can't afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help.

5:03 am
abby: they are busy. there is a lot going on in d.c. as well. attorney general jeff sessions is draining the swamp with the doj kicking out all of them across the country. this is something that has been done in the past. this is a statement from the doj spokesperson. she says as was the case in prior transitions many of the united states attorneys nominated by the previous administration already have left the department of justice. the attorney general has now asked the remaining 46 presidentially appointed u.s. attorneys to tender their resignations in order to ensure a uniformed transfer. pete: 93 or 94 i will attorneys who work attorney general. nominated by the president. political appoint years. as what happens with new presidential: there were 46 left. divided to get rid of them. clayton: media's reaction. bloodletting. attorneys general always left.
5:04 am
and even dianne feinstein. senator feinstein saying this yesterday in a statement from her office. i'm surprised to hear that president trump and attorney general sessions have abruptly fired all 46 remaining u.s. attorneys. i'm very concerned about the effect of this sudden and unexpected decision on federal law enforcement. we had charles hurt on the show earlier this morning. he said, look, this is norm 3458. these are obama era appointees who. abby: have different priorities. clayton: different ideological priorities from the president. abby: what would democrats do if they were in power? clayton: janet reno did the same thing. abby: jeff sessions was kicked out by then president clinton. pete: headlines from the left stream media from cnn an mounts over handling of u.s. attorney fires. the failing "new york times" says trump abruptly orders 46 obama-era prosecutors to resign. you read deep in the article in the "new york times." it says in paragraph 46 or whatever it's not unusual for a new president to replace
5:05 am
united states attorneys appointed by a predecessor. clayton: buried the lead. pete: pete headline looks like out of control. what do they want to do? enforce immigration law. right? this last administration didn't do any of that you can't have the same attorneys prosecuting that had different priorities and just changing on a switch. abby: they want to bring more law and order back in this country. divomps experience this too by the way state level. when you go in, there is a transition of power and you bring your own people in as we keep aing with your own agenda and priorities. he said this should not be a surprise to anybody. listen. >> look. nobody holds over all the old political appointees because they probably are going to sabotage their operation. it is the will of the president to make this decision. all of these people, they knew darn well when they took the job they were political appointees and they served at the pleasure of the president. quite frankly donald trump kept them a lot longer than obama did, bush did, clinton
5:06 am
did. what is everybody upset about? this is what happens every four years or every time there is a change in administration. so cry me a river. i've watched this news coverage and these anchors are going crazy like oh my gosh, it's a slaughter house out there. no, it is the orderly transition of power. pete: he used the key word sabotage. that's what we have seen across departments. that's wheel see like in the state department, education department. va. places where have you got to have your people. abby: so you don't get these leaks either, clayton. it's been huge problem. clayton: governor enjoyed naunce pelosi you recall back in 2010 when nancy pelosi said we had to pass the healthcare bill in order to see what's in it. watch. >> we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it. clayton: don't read it first. i know it's 2,000 pages so don't read it now with the republican plan for healthcare overhaul of obamacare.
5:07 am
she had this statement to read yesterday that she released. the american people and members have a right to know the full impact of this legislation before any vote in committee or by the whole house. so now she is saying we should start reading these bills. pete: do you think they ever realize the irony of their statements? honestly? 2,000 page bill that the democrats rammed down america's throat on a short time line and said you don't need to read it we will tell you what's in it when you pass it 200 page bill that's trying to repeal and replace that republicans have put it out there. out for public discussion. they are saying no, no, no, no. got to have time to read it seriously. abby: they sometimes feel like the american people are stupid and don't remember. pete: sometimes? abby: that comment by her and watching of this all play out should be a wake-up call how to handle healthcare. this is theirs to deal with it's probably the most complicated, most personal thing for any american. we all deal with this. they have got to get this one right. the biggest problem with obamacare is that it was shoved down people's throats, passed down partisan lines.
5:08 am
and in order to get this right, have you got toe have not only republicans on board but you have got to have democrats on board as well. it has to be a combination of voices and thinkers to get it right. pete: you will get some voices but i don't know that they will get any democratic votes. the mantra of the left right now is resist. resist donald trump no matter. what they will probably get none. abby: have you people like senator joe manchin and more moderate senators? states where they need to win races that were won by president trump this last time. they will have to be smart and strategic about where they fall on obamacare. clayton: let's talk about nate silver. maybe a lot of you don't noe that name. but he has been a darling of the left. in 2012 he ache accurate li predicted he is a pollster. accurately predicted the election. got every race in the country correct except like one in north dakota. abby: he was working for the "new york times." clayton: he quote his blog after that he got a lot of stuff wrong as did a lot of people during this last election. is he actually -- he wrote an
5:09 am
interesting piece where is he pointing out where the left is. and he has some really interesting. abby: a little bit of self-reflection. i have read it yesterday and found it so refreshing. going from the mainstream media. pete: postmortem. >> aren't very diverse group and place opinions in experts and other members of the establishment. once a view is established it tends to reinforce itself until and unless there is very compelling evidence for a contrary position. social media, especially twitter can amplify the group think further it can be an echo chamber. so spot on though. the mainstream media are always together. you can say cover these events. they all travel together. and they like to agree with each other. and say oh, yeah. that's all right. i agree with that clarify clay what he talks about too, the idea of the coast and coastal elite from flyover country which is where the democratic party went so wrong during this last election.
5:10 am
what does he talk about in his book, guns, god, and grits. grave, whatever. and basically saying that this is -- that's the part of the country that the liberals lost. pete: how can you cover it properly when you are never in it, of it, and don't understand it at all. instead you dismiss it in the piece it talks about how there was almost a near consensus and the failing "new york times" did it the entire election. almost a forgone conclusion hillary clinton was going to win but how much she would win by. ignoring underswelling of people going through. he acknowledges it in the piece. i don't know how or when that percolates in the mainstream media. >> abby: like he said they are all hanging out with each other. we have been out there and talked to the american people throughout this past year. i have seen and i know you guys have as well such a disconnect from what the american people are telling us and what they are hearing from the mainstream media i think it would be help healthy for people in the media to get out
5:11 am
of that bubble and talk to the people what are they concerned about? what are the issues they are concerned about. they would be better after the their jobs if they did that. clayton: colbert actually sized the press. you are not going to be friends with president trump. that's fine go. out of and there and doing your job. journalism. it's a knives idea. wife don't you go do journalism. pete: do a story about that guy in middle america that now has a job because didn't get sent over to mexico or china because of policy. cover that the real ramification of policies. they do that for obama in the early part of hills devil rays. all those glowing stories human interest stories about how their lives have been changed. all negative and dark, of course, they want to portray trump negatively. there is going to be good news stories out of there. let's see if they ever cover them. clayton: write a great piece about donald trump getting rid of daylight saving time. abby: we will see what happens. new federal judge lost donald ds

♪ ♪ clayton: welcome back, a democratic leader is one the last people you would expect to come to president trump's defense offer wiretapping claims. pete: dennis kucinich says it happened to him in a foxnews.com op-ed he says can i vouch that extra psychiatric larr surveillance does occur regardless of whether it was officially approved. i was wiretapped in 2011 after taking a phone call in my congressional office from a foreign leader. joining us now is dennis kucinich. for those that haven't read your opinion piece briefly. what did happen to you in 2011. >> i was on a phone call with a foreign leader from libya. the general council of the house had basically approved the call and said you can talk to him that's your right as a congressman. i found out two years after i left office that call was, in fact, tapped, that it was
5:18 am
intercepted, that some intel agency had, for whatever reason, had the whole call. "the washington times" played it back for them in a restaurant in washington, d.c. and they wrote a story about it. clay delay is remarkable that members of congress are being surveilled by the intelligence community. who gives the authorization for that. if it doesn't come from the president? does it come from a court? i know you have put in freedom of information act requests and have you still been waiting on this for five years. >> some of the intel agencies have not responded to requests that i made before i left congress. the fact of the matter is, that if a member of congress can have a phone call intercepted, there is no one safe. that it is plausible that a presidential candidate could have had his phone, in effect, tapped by an intel agency. pete: um-huh. >> the larger question is what about the rights of americans to privacy? we have five different
5:19 am
constitutional amendments that are supposed to protect our right to privacy. and now we learn from wikileaks that, you know, things like an iphone can be used to you get somebody's conversations, use televisions. what's going on? the government is out of control on this surveillance stuff. pete: congressman, presumably what happened was they felt like they were surveying this libyan leader. is he on the phone with you. recording this conversation. by law they are supposed to ignore what you are saying and surveying on him. you said this was kept and later could have been used. presumably, plausible with trump tower they are surveying foreign leaders that may be talking to someone at trump tower. they are capturing it. but now they are releasing the transcript or portions of it to the media. so there is multiple way ways in which this is certainly or could be a situation where people around or in trump tower were wiretapped. >> well, if you look at the foreign intelligence surveillance act, they're north supposed to be going after u.s. citizens. they certainly don't have the right to go after members of congress because of separation
5:20 am
of powers. and so what's happening there is a misuse of intelligence. and then when it turns up in the media, are you kidding me? pete: that's a crime. >> it is a violation of every rule and law that's out there with respect to the handling of intelligence. this leaking is destructive to our government and it's also undermining the privacy rights and the american people have a right to be really upset about the way this whole thing has been handled. clayton: we only have 30 seconds left but the idea that president obama had ordered this. i mean it happened to you in 2011, therefore, it would have been the same thing that president obama would have ordered you being surveilled. do you buy that argument? >> i don't know that president obama could have been personally involved. you know, there are so many people net government now who have the ability under the patriot act to be able to grab information that they should note be entitled to. so, i can't say that president obama did it. but, you know, someone did. and they use the power of the united states and abuse the power of the united states and that's got to stop. pete: congressman dennis kucinich thank you for sharing
5:21 am

5:28 am
they have got to dehumanize the women around him. after this international women's day, we have really got to start treating women as individuals. give them the respect they deserve. ivanka and mrs. trump are very different individuals. perhaps even friends to the liberal community and the conservative community as independent women. and i think that they're missing that in a great way. abby: you oftentimes in society today, people think that, you know, folks that are untouchable, they are not affected by comments that are made, that they never actually see them. i have can tell from you my personal experience and my dad was governor of utah there was a blog post made about my mom. and it broke brock my heart because she spent days really upset about this. it hit her personally, richard. i don't care what your politics are we should all be concerned about language like this. is this a thyme when both parties could come together and stand by melania trump and say we should not stand by this language? >> i think you are absolutely, abby. anybody who puts this out in

people on the bench will get back in the game. aall along the trump said the unemployment rate was phoney. partially right. men not looking after kids or anything sitting on the bench. not looking for a job and not employed. now some of them are coming back. that's good. clayton: that's good. also, the manufacturing sector and construction. i mean, we haven't seen this large of an increase in a while. i think 28,000 jobs added in the manufacturing sector. what does that tell you? >> well, part of all this automation doesn't mean necessarily fewer jobs in america. it means a bigger manufacturing base, better able to compete. after all, we really are pioneers of things like automation, 3-d printers and so forth. we let that get away from us in the 80's. now we are out in front again. that's a good thing. starting to use those things in a variety of ways that permits to us create jobs in those sectors. now, the president with his tax program, would do a lot to facilitate that if we can get it through congress.
5:48 am
what congressman brady wants to do with the corporate tax, really makes a lot of sense in that regard. clayton: now you said would and could do because we don't have that tax plan through yet. >> right. clayton: politicians love to take credit for everything, right? they love to point the finger and blame others for these problems in the past. can we say that there is an actual trump bump and that president trump deserves some credit here or is it outside of his -- it's outside of his realm of handling it. >> fair and balanced, they both deserve some credit. the economic environment is improving, so some of this is obama. trump was only president three weeks when this date can a was collected. still, since his election, there has been a new confidence in the country that things are going to get done. that the environment that the congress department. the labor department. treasury department. >> the irs is not going to be antibusiness but pro-business. that's creating. i talked to many ceos, they are more willing to invest in america.
5:49 am
so some of this is him, too. clayton: what about the tax plan? will we see a big drop in the corporate tax rate? >> yes. the question is how do we pay for it? the border tax adjustment seems to, you know, get wal-mart all upset. it wouldn't affect their competitiveness because their competitors would be paying as well. it wouldn't raise prices 20%. it would be far less. it's what our competitors do. the europeans do it. the chinese do it. the japanese do it. what we are doing is basically turning the corporate tax into a value added tax. i know that's a dirty word among conservatives but in actuality, it is great conservative policy because it leaves businesses alone to make sound choices on their own. clayton: peter morici diving into the details as always. thanks, pete. >> take care. clayton: lowe gohmert joe piscopo all here live. one university is creating the ultimate safe space to promote

sean was very, very firm on that, and i believe the president heeded his call. i do not believe this is something they've been pondering for a long time. i thought, for example, that the u.s. attorney for the southern district a person who has had a tremendous impact in terms of going after public corruption here. took down the republicans, state senator, ahead of the state senate, he took down sheldon, the democrat, head of the new york state assembly. he had focused on mayor de blasio who was up for reelection here, calling him big bird, for possible campaign violations, so i'm shocked and had a meeting at trump tower in which announced that trump had asked him to stay. clayton: you say you're stunned. but, first of all, they serve at the pleasure of the president, and this is standard practice. other administrations have gotten rid of all the u.s.
6:06 am
attorneys to a clean slate so they can emphasize as abby said their own priority. so why are you stunned? >> because i explained -- it's probably the highest profile of the u.s. attorneys. and when he announced that he met with trump and he met with attorney general sessions and there was an understanding that he would stay on to continue these public corruption cases, that's why my guard was down. but you're absolutely right. this is not that extraordinary. clinton did it in '93. george w. bush was investigated for doing it midterm under somewhat murkier circumstances. but you have a situation if you strip it down. now, what is the president worried about? he's worried about the loyalty the government and whether they're -- clayton: with all the leaks and everything? >> dude, i'm totally with you. sold his virtue as a prosecutor, i also have to point out is a democrat who was the counsel for senator chuck schumer, the head of the democrats in the united states
6:07 am
senate. chuck schumer became the enemy of donald trump. so here's chuck schumer's right hand man is now the u.s. attorney in the southern district, so you could certainly see why the president upon pondering whether to keep him would say wait a second. this dude is with the bad guys. why am i keeping him in my house? clayton: well, i want to get your take of what are has going on with the russian hacking scandal and the intelligence community saying we have nothing to do here. we had cory lewandowski on the show earlier this morning, we'll play both of these and get your response. watch. >> we keep getting new information about troubling ties between the president and his associates and his campaign and russia. >> just said that there are no early indications of collusion between the russians and anyone in the white house. >> well, we have no evidence yet at all one way or the other. i guess to say tantalizing
6:08 am
evidence of some kind of collusion. >> do you know of any hard evidence of collusion between what i call trump world and the russians? >> chris, i have no hard evidence of collusion. >> the growing evidence of the trump russia connection threatens to consume the opening months of donald trump's presidency. >> if there was evidence, i'm sure the mainstream media would have found it and brought it to light. look, their favorite thing is to go after donald trump the piñata. i spent 18 months standing next to this individual 18 hours a day. never, ever, ever did i see or hear donald trump talk with the russians. never have i had any contact with the russian government. the president has been very clear about this. there's nothing here to say to see. so i think it's important for the mainstream media to focus on his campaign promise. which is repealing and replace obamacare. bringing jobs back to the
6:09 am
country, let's get off of this false narrative. >> false narrative? >> believe me, i have looked. i have not found any substantive evidence of collusion between the trump campaign or trump administration. there is zero evidence of collusion, just as i believe there is zero evidence of wiretapping in trump tower. abby: yeah, but there's been the media talking about the fact that there might be collusion going on and even jobs happening in this country. why is there such a focus on this when no one, even democrats can find anything there? >> you're exactly right, abby. that's exactly the point i'm trying to make and yet there are has been this tantalizing flirtation, first of all, between vladimir putin and donald trump. they kind of, you know, man love kind of. >> man crush. >> a man crush.
6:10 am
and mercilessly. they also had the fact that trump announced that he loves wikileaks during the campaign. you had russia being proven now to be the engineer of the leaking. abby: that's not colluding with the russians. >> it definitely doesn't. i'm just saying the speculation is not just totally baseless. it's just no evidence of collusion. abby: i think they're doing a disservice to the american people. >> i think they're easing off on it. >> do you really or do you think they're going to keep -- they're trying to tear him down, aren't they? >> very well may be. but i'm not going to continue to flog a horse with the second question you ask the investigator is always the same. where is your proof? where's the beef? and how many times can chris matthews or someone else say, well, we haven't gotten to that yet. maybe next time i look or the next rug i pick up or the next
6:11 am
room i look into. but there definitely has been a tantalizing hint of it. but, again, zero evidence on whether the media is doing a service or disservice. abby: it's an easy headline. you can stick around and bowl with us. and i want to hear about your night with sean hannity. >> that's a good one. abby: we have to take a commercial break. >> we do have other headlines this morning. a federal judge reducing to do the same for his reviewed order. judge james says he won't carry over, six states are fighting which blocks the entrance from six middle east countries. and tsa says that is not what happened. it appears that ali jr. who was carrying his passport
6:12 am
refused to remove his jewelry before walking through the detector. but that didn't stop debbie wasserman schultz who happened to be on the same flight and tweeting this. ali was quote detained. whether or not reducing to hand over jewelry is detained to you. and canada now outraged over at skyrocketing immigration. more than 2,000 people across the u.s. border into canada to speak asylum since january 31st. that number doubling since last year. canada now demanding answers on how to fix the problem. a different tone than what canada prime minister justin trudeau said earlier this year. will welcome you regardless of your face. diversity is our strength. #welcometocanada. well, now not so welcome any. it's like angela merkel. let's open up the borders and then our biggest challenge is
6:13 am
dealing with terrorism. >> walking it back. >> against the republican health care plan so what will it take to get him onboard? we're going to ask him next. >> plus he just got fired from the apprentice. but arnold schwarzenegger wants a new job. what is it and who is he coming after? ♪ that's me.
6:14 am
then out of nowhere...crying. third time that day. i wasn't even sad. first the stroke, now this. so we asked my doctor. he told us about pseudobulbar affect, or pba. it's frequent, uncontrollable crying or laughing that doesn't match how you feel. it can happen with certain neurologic conditions like stroke, dementia, or ms. he prescribed nuedexta, the only fda-approved treatment for pba. tell your doctor about medicines you take. some can't be taken with nuedexta. nuedexta is not for people with certain heart conditions. serious side effects may occur. life-threatening allergic reactions to quinidine can happen. tell your doctor right away if you have bleeding or bruising. stop nuedexta if muscle twitching, confusion, fever, or shivering occurs with antidepressants. side effects may include diarrhea, dizziness, cough, vomiting, weakness, or ankle swelling. nuedexta made a difference by reducing my pba episodes. ask about nuedexta and go to nuedexta.com

6:16 am
>> we'll continue to listen. we'll continue to make improvements where we can but there's no question this is the bill that at the end of the day will come to the president's desk, repeal obamacare, and to begin to give americans hope and relief
6:17 am
again. abby: well, some conservative members of the house are not impressed with the republican plan to repeal and replace obamacare saying that it doesn't go far enough. so what would help bring them onboard? >> one congressman says more needs to be done is texas governor lawy. congressman, thank you for being with us this morning. what would it take to get you onboard with this effort? >> well, you've got to look at the bottom line. what does it do? we're told if everything works perfectly, we may get a -- an eight, nine, maybe even a 10% reduction in the cost. that's just crazy. obamacare has caused prices to skyrocket. and i got a letter how toker from 52-year-old widow that says my deductible alone 7,000, i'm angry the government deciding how i should spend the little money i have and this bill continues to do that. and the fact that the health insurance companies have
6:18 am
gotten what they got. in fact, they have a mandate in here if you don't do what they say every month, then you're going to have to pay 30% higher. we're doing our own penalty in this thing just like obamacare did. it's a different penalty, but it's still a penalty. so we did a more complete repeal two years ago. and you have to remember under reconciliation. guys, we did this two years ago. so it is already passed through the senate requirements. it is already passed by the stupid bird rule and, by the way, they talk about it being so complicated. no, the bird rule in essence is if it affects the budget, then it can stay in reconciliation. and so anything we do to reduce the cost and let people choose what's in their plan instead of the federal government mandating, it's a good thing, and it will affect the budget. it will cost less.
6:19 am
and, by the way, everybody keeps talking about this panacea buying across state lines. if we don't eliminate the exception from any trust laws instead of having 50 monopolies, one in each state, we'll have one for the whole country. that has to change. >> well, congressman, you're not alone, we had a guest on earlier this morning that says instead of getting out the garden shears and cutting through this, it sounds like the president got out kindergarten scissors and clipped around a little bit. is that the frustration for you? >> yeah. that's the frustration. and you know what? donald trump wants to do the right thing. president trump has made that clear. but, unfortunately, he is being kept -- he was kept for so long from knowing there were objections to the bill. he was being told by those around him and people in leadership everybody loves it. there's no objection. the outside group loves it. and it wasn't until you
6:20 am
mentioned sean, thank god for sean, but finally we got a few people in to tell him there are problems. and i tell you what. if his so-called handlers would let him sit down with us in a room, we could work this out and we could have a great bill, and we could get out the trouble. but so far they're not letting that happen. abby: and politics are a play here as well. the house, you have a election every two years. the president has hinted at this. if you don't have members of the house coming onboard of this plan, they're going to be primary in their election. what's your response to that? >> well, because he was being told that everybody loves it. it's a great plan and so naturally, if everybody loves it, there's no problems, then the few that wouldn't -- weren't onboard, you would feel that way. but he hasn't been getting accurate information, and i'm telling you. the donald trump that got to manage his own news and didn't have to have briefings on
6:21 am
everything, he understood, and he had a feel for what people across america want. he has been prevented to have that feel. if we get in a room with him, we can work this out. abby: good to have you, sir. clayton: more on fox and friends.
6:22 am
6:23 am
6:24 am
>> workers' compensation back to fox and friends. the president of syria calling u.s. troops invaders while slamming president trump's efforts against isis. president bashar al assad have conducted only a few rates locally and then accused them of operating without his government's permission, as if we need it. additional to send 400 marines to the war-torn country.
6:25 am
and then nancy pelosi is still in washington, she was ready to call it quits if hillary clinton won the election. >> shocking that somebody like donald trump is president of the united states. again, i would have been gone by now if she had won. >> well, we just have to resist. that's why i'm here. instead pelosi decided to continue to lead democrats in their fight against donald trump and the republicans. clayton. clayton: thank you, all, former snl caster maybe having his hand at politics. apparently very close to joining the new jersey governor race. >> what is his inspiration. hit the campaign trail. abby: here's here to tell us about his future plans. joe, everyone. how is the race going? >> it's so much fun. i'm enjoying this. i'm embracing it. i would suggest everybody into
6:26 am
the world of politics. abby: are you officially announcing? >> i can't. i promised neil cavuto i would do it on his show. so mr. cavuto i respect. abby: we can do a clip of you announcing here. >> neil would love that. you know what? i've never been more serious about anything in my life. people need a representative. the whole republicans and the democrats, there's a whole machine in place. we need people going i think right down the middle. the ranker in washington, i've never seen in my lifetime. everybody has to stop. >> how do you run for governor in a blue state? what does that mountain look like to you? >> it's almost impossible to win. i don't think that the republicans can win in new jersey in november. virginia and new jersey. i don't think that the republicans can win. so that's why i'm seriously considering just going in as an independent because i'm a former lifelong democrat.
6:27 am
i know bad word. but former lifelong democrat, and i was a blue dog democrat. very conservative democrat. now i'm independent. abby: i find it refreshing that i hear people say i may not be a democrat anymore. that's about life in politics, thinking about it; right? >> exactly right, abby. it gets so crazy. i go to interviews and because i know donald trump for 25 years, give the guy a chance. 50 days, give him a chance. they gave barack obama a chance. and it's time just to put all the ranker aside and let's put have some peace. >> now accusing president trump having collusion. you've known him for decades and yet no connection at all. what's your take on that? >> giving stolen caviar, i
6:28 am
could investor figure that out. it's hysterical. the russians are coming. the russians -- will you stop with the russians? the russians have nothing to do with it. if anybody hacked anybody, it's the nsa. it's the deep states. it's so, you know, obvious but stop with the russians, please. it's comical. >> or it could be pamela anderson. >> you know what? >> front page of the site. pamela anderson, now there she is. she's visiting and hangs out with juliann julian assange, she might be the secret spy. >> i know. only in the 21st industry. a guy who hacks governments can go out with somebody from "baywatch." if this isn't a reality show, i don't know what is. abby: would love to be a fly on the wall in that embassy; right? clayton: i thought the guy who steals our secrets steals our
6:29 am
"baywatch" babes. >> just blame the russians for everything. but honestly as i think about going into public service, you know, for the first time in my life and representing the honor -- representing the great steal, put the ranker aside, stop the hate. really the hard right and hard left around america. that's where we have to go. >> just personally new jersey, cutting rid of the -- lower the property taxes? >> oh, this is it too. i'll sit down with some of the liberal media, liberal media, who i love. they nail me. you're a trump guy. and i said to them how is that going to help me lower property taxes in new jersey? that's what the people care about. the gas tax. we're taxed to death in the state of new jersey. we're taxed to droves. stop with the name-calling and if you're going to criticize, i always say this, children. i'm old now. i always say this. have a solution. don't just criticize.
6:30 am
all you hear from the democrats in washington is the criticism. abby: i love that. you can hang out with us all morning long. >> and also pump your own gas. coming up safer well for the father daughter dance. now it should be known as the family dance. should dads have to take their sons? >> and next i'll set my clock ahead one hour tonight. [applause] >> just like that your campaign is over. >> i don't think that's live. i think that's taped. what super poligrip does for me is it keeps the food out. before those little pieces would get in between my dentures and my gum and it was uncomfortable. just a few dabs is clinically proven to seal out more food particles. super poligrip is part of my life now.
6:31 am
6:32 am
6:33 am
6:34 am
abby: look at that. such a great dad. >> thank you. i appreciate it. i was down at spring training, a family tradition to go down to clear water and all the fox fans who are there. that was her first baseball game, my beautiful wife, natalie. and my boy myles. abby: was he in heaven? >> oh, it was great. abby: rick also had a pretty

6:36 am
the city of miami arresting at least 35 people after shutting that party down. the city needing to hire extra police just to keep those students in line. the crack down comes after the mayor vowed to keep the beach clean after party goers trashed it last year during float opia. and the left still trying to take down president trump. how? the same way that failed them during the 2016 presidential election through his connections to and also the political statements. politico posting an antitrump strategy memo by a progressive political action group claiming that his economic policies will not help real americans. and he has gone from celebrity apprentice and now arnold schwarzenegger may be getting back into politics. take a listen. abby: well, the terminator star reportedly considering to run against california senator dianne feinstein in 2018. that will be interesting.
6:37 am
and a tradition. now one california school is renaming the newly father daughter dance calling it the family dance. and a move to make the event more quote inclusive. school officials in sacramento say it's supposed to be a teaching moment. the principal told parents this. however your child wants to define their family, whoever they want to bring with them, they're able to do that. well, your comments are pouring in on this one. brennon e-mailing us this picture of him and his two beautiful daughters. keep the tradition of daddy daughter. make america simple again. and sends a photo of him, the daddy daughter dance is supposed to be a time to celebrate relationship between father and daughter. i for one cherish every moment i have with my daughters. i love that. and this picture. that's of me and my dad sharing a special father daughter dance at my wedding. one that i will never forget. i love that. love my dad so much. a sweet one. all right. tossing it back

6:43 am
i'm phil mickelson, pro golfer. my psoriatic arthritis caused joint pain. just like my moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. and i was worried about joint damage. my doctor said joint pain from ra... can be a sign of existing joint damage... that could only get worse. he prescribed enbrel to help relieve pain and help stop further damage. enbrel may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal, events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, nervous system and blood disorders, and allergic reactions have occurred. tell your doctor if you've been someplace where fungal infections are common or if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for... heart failure, or if you have persistent... fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness. don't start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu.
6:44 am
joint pain and damage... can go side by side. ask how enbrel can help relieve joint pain and help stop joint damage. enbrel, the number one rheumatologist-prescribed biologic. ostriches don't really stick their heads in the sand. a peanut is not a nut. and a real john deere is actually real affordable. you learn something new everyday. the surprisingly affordable john deere e series tractors. now you can own america's tractor for just $99 a month. learn more at your john deere dealer. abby: the house intelligence
6:45 am
committee chairman says he has found zero evidence of collusion between the trump campaign and the russians. >> look, i don't believe that to be president case. i don't think the evidence exists for that. but we're going to do our investigation, and we will figure out if there's any intelligence or evidence that suggestions that that, in fact, is the case. >> well, the committee is getting ready to hold its first public hearing on that issue so what can we expect? south carolina congressman and member of the intelligence committee tray gowdydowns us right now. >> yes, ma'am. thank you. abby: you guys have been busy lately. first off the top, how unusual is it for you to investigate something like this? how unusual is it for the house? >> well, the house is not equipped to investigate crime. so that's a challenge. but we do have an oversight function. i'm new to the house intelligence committee. but the house intelligence committee is not new to it's role. congress does have a role to play in this investigation but we don't investigate crime because we're not very good at
6:46 am
it. >> congressman, what do you think they will end up finding at the end of this? >> i don't know and i guess i was a prosecutor for 16 years, so i guess it's easy for me to kind of turn off the speculative part of my mind, and i would encourage all of your viewers. we're going to start the evidentiary process on march the 20th. so just have an open mind on all facets of this from the interference to the influence to our american response to it. but also the leaks. abby: obviously it's important enough to be having these investigations. so last weekend when we got that tweet sent out from president trump about trump tower being wiretapped and even putting some blame on former president obama, when you woke up and saw that tweet, what was your immediate reaction to it? >> i'm not a big twitter -- i've never been able to unlock the mysteries of the world at 140 characters. my mind just immediately because i was a federal prosecutor, if this is true, there is an evidentiary trail. there's a paper trail that would either be at the foreign
6:47 am
intelligence surveillance court or doj, and this will either be corroborated or contradicted. abby: right so you think it's very necessary to have. also an investigation into what happened there when some people say that has nothing to do with anything. >> i think all aspects of this are very important. they are the allegations of a crime. there's also the constitutional injury of a foreign power either seeking to interfere with or influence our election. there's the american response, which includes the president's allegation. and all of it is important, and it's not for me to decide what's more important and what's not. i think the leak is super important. but folks in the media might kind of recalibrate the importance of these issues. but the leaks are both illegal to our national security, so i'm very interested in how this got out. abby: fbi james comey in the thick of all of this. said kellyanne conway, put up or shut up.
6:48 am
how do you handle with everything he's been dealing with in the past year, really? >> well, i have a rich history with director comey. i have examined him a couple of times. he has an incredibly hard job. i'm probably bias toward the fbi, based on my background. he's not infallible. he's a witness like every other witness. he's going to be examined. he's going to be cross-examined. he's going to be tested. he's going to be probed. and ultimately you and your viewers will be able to determine whether or not he's credible and believable. your bit is every important as mine. so i'll be sitting there alongside you march the 20th. abby: you've got your work cut out for you, sir. thank you for being with us. all right. up next president trump is up and tweeting this morning. what he just said about the new health care plan, and it is game time with the hottest system in our country right now. pete already has his hand on the nintendo switch. we're playing with nintendo

6:50 am
6:51 am
6:52 am
abby: welcome back. so we just had congressman on talking about health care and now the president just tweeted about it. we are making great progress with health care. obamacare is imploding and will only get worse. republicans coming together to get the job done. so some optimism there. we'll see how all of this plays out in the coming weeks. >> all right. let's talk about nintendo. let's have some fun on this show. kids, gather around the tv
6:53 am
because nintendo has released one of the most memorable televisions. it lets you take it from your hands to the tv. here with this game changer is president and coo of nintendo america. thanks for being here. >> great for having me on. >> are you surprised by the response it is now the fastest-selling console in nintendo history? >> we build our systems to sell well. but the fact that this is now our best-selling system after essentially a week on the market is fantastic. >> now, pete is over there playing zelda: breath of the wild, which -- pete, how are you liking it so far? >> i was a super nintendo so far. not so good at modern video games, but this is amazing. >> the new zelda game, it is the fourth highest rated video game in history. >> correct.
6:54 am
