ainsley: very boring. steve: it is the same story change the names. first it was flynn. then it was sessions. and now it is nunes is the devil according to the democrats who would like to see him recuse himself. yesterday he revealed he had that press conference last week that he had some secret information that had not been made public. he actually met with his source at the white house campus last week. it was not inside the west wing. it was apparently not a white house staff or intel officer. and just those few details got the democrats so mad they want him out as the chair. ainsley: chuck schumer wants him out and wants paul ryan to replace him as the chairman of the house intelligence committee. brian: as does nancy pelosi and adam schiff. i'm sure the house is interested in what the the senate thinks just goes through tradition. back up a second. you brought up mike film, he was targeted for a while. i'm going to next other names. monica crowley was targeted for a while.

kellyanne conway, sebastian goreca. little by little. jeff sessions as you guys mentioned. they were trying to take down almost everyone in this administration whether named or nominated. devin nunes is a high profile respected republican does something unorthodox but not for him. people that follow devin nunes knows that he takes this intelligence thing very seriously oftentimes following his own lead. this is pa for the course what he does. in retrospect he came back and said you know what i probably should have told ranking member schiff before i told the white house. sorry that doesn't diminish with what i learned it had nothing to do with russia. it had everything do do with unmasking names of possibly nsa transcripts. steve: good news is schiff and everybody on the committee is going to wind up seeing what he has seen so far. this is the way it works. if there is a whistleblower in the administration or something like that, you don't go before the full committee, you wind up calling somebody and you say hey, i've got some information i think you should see. ainsley: he has been very

public about it. steve: absolutely. apparently he has gone over to the white house once or twice a week for a very long time. he explained this on the o'reilly show he was making a number of appearances yesterday. what he did he made it clear once or twice a week he goes over to the white house complex, usually the eisenhower building because they have got a computer system that they do not have ache is he to at the house of representatives. brian: they don't want you to have access elsewhere from the white house. you don't always knock on the front door. there is plenty of places in the white house complex to go. ainsley: he has included all of us. he has included you. you have want transparency, you have got it he told us what is happen. he was on royale last night. he said sorry, chuck schumer i'm not going anywhere. >> he wants to you quit the investigation you are north going to do that. >> i'm sure the democrats do want me to quit because they know i'm quite effective at getting to the bottom. we're also investigating leaks as it relates to russia.

now, you know, as you know, just recently i have found out last week i found out that there was additional information that came forward to me that had nothing to do with russia but has everything to do with whether or not americans were masked properly or in fact unmasked. i'm very concerned. steve: what he said there was very important. it has nothing to do with russia. wait a minute. then why is the nsa doing the incidental collect of american he is in unmasking the names the whole thing about russia, right? not about russia. no wonder the other day he said he is troubled by it no wonder trey gowdy said mr. chuck schumer, sorry -- >> i just love it when senator chuck schumer gives republicans advice on what we ought to do. devin nunes is doing what we ought to do. i wish senator chuck schumer and the other democrat would be more interested in the you authenticity and reliability of the underlying data and not the means it was required. whether it was the white house

or waffle house what difference does it make if the information is reliivel and authentic? brian: right. no one has seen the information outside the whistle blower we assume and outside devin nunes who has not seen it all. he prepared -- he was prepared to show everyone on tuesday. but it's not ready yet. so we will see if everything falls into place if anyone would acknowledge that bottom line, when you look at this whole thing, whether you think devin nunes is the best or the worst, it looks like more attention now will be given to the senate intelligence committee because of all the turbulence circulating around the house intelligence committee. steve: it does look as if the story, the narrative that the mainstream media that the democrats are trying to push is that he got this information from somebody at the white house. which is a great story. but not true. there is no evidence to support that. it was clear yesterday not somebody from the west wing. somebody who has access to the white house facility as well. ainsley: democrats can give their opinions and say they want them to step down but do

not have the ability to make him step down. brian: meanwhile, something else is bothering the president. how do you know he? tweeted about it. clearly he is not happy with the way this whole healthcare plan worked out. it didn't pass through the house. ainsley: he was also tweeting about this. this is russia with hillary clinton. steve: sure, regarding the nunes thing. why isn't the white house looking into the bill and hillary deal that allowed big uranium to go to russia. russian speech money to bill, there was a lot of that is correct the russian-hillary reset. pray of of russia. trump russia story is a hoax. what he is talking about the op-ed story when john podesta became a special counselor to the united states barack obama he did not reveal that he a financial tie to a russian company with ties to the kremlin. that is against the law for not revealing that. and if somebody in this administration had something like that going on, don't you think it would be on the cough of the "new york times" in

type about that big. ainsley: so anyone who is up for a cabinet position or is going to be part of the team of the new administration, you have to go through a long application process. you can only imagine -- yes, you have to disclose all of your financial holdings. if you have a roth ira, 401(k), go through fine tooth comb. >> or kremlin ira. ainsley: that could be a problem. brian: also add to it jared kushner doing it to try to make government more tran parent. go into why i had a meeting with a russian bank official which is actually on the sanctions list. on the service was nothing wrong with that, but the appearances aren't great. let's hear his explanation. steve: he said look, i talked to some of these people in the transition, which is what they are supposed to do. i will come in. just let me know when they say we will let you know when. ainsley: i was on vacation last weekend i guess or at the

beach at a wedding e it wasn't a vacation. it was a weekend. i get a call and it's eric trump he said ainsley i kept asking him for an interview. i told him congratulations on having the baby. we're so excited to heart of news. he said i would like to sit down with you. i would like to say yes to your invitation to do the interview. yesterday i got to set down with eric trump and beautiful wife laura to find out about their exciting news. they are having a little boy. we will show this throughout the next three hours. did i ask him about some news yesterday because yesterday we were on the curvey couch and we were talking about how president trump had said he is going to have to work with democrat if these republicans won't work together to pass obamacare. brian: in fact, he put out a tweet last night as it relates to what you where to ask him. it says the democrats will make a deal with me on healthcare as soon as obamacare folds. not long. do not worry, we are in very good shape. ainsley: all right. so we asked him about that is he going to work with the

democrats? eric said this. he said he is going to have to start working with democrats now. threatening basically the republicans saying if you can't get on board i'm going to have to go elsewhere and work with democrats. >> quite frankly at least from a civilian standpoint i wish you would see more of that you see how fragmented the system is and it's sad. you look at our supreme court nominee right now. he was confirmed unanimously last time he went through this process, and now they are talking about having no democrats vote in his favor. that's really sad when you look at that you realize how partisan washington, d.c. is and the reality is 845% of the people in this country don't fall into one bucket or another. steve: interesting. when the president was tweeting last night, he also made it very clear he is still steamed at house republicans who blew the chance to do something about healthcare. tweeted out the republican house freedom caucus was able to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory after so many bad years. they were ready for a win. brian: that's not going to happen as of now.

we will see if they come back to it a little bit later. democrats also real light they could celebrate over the weekend by today they really they had are in a plan that need desperate help. the longer it goes on the worse it is going to get. sadly out in the interim. american people going to be paying higher premiums and higher deductibles and searching far and long to find another healthcare company in the exchange that they can work with. ainsley: got to be affordable. 9 more minutes see more of that interview. >> excellent. ainsley: what they might be naming the little baby. steve: fantastic. keep it here. you also have the headlines with hilliard. heather: good morning to you and everyone at home. we begin with a fox news alert though. police under attack and urgent manhunt in miami. after two officers are ambushed sitting in their car. fellow officers rushing them to the hospital in the back of a pickup truck overnight. the undercover officers were in an unmarked car investigating gang activity, we're told.

difficult for him to handle couldn't relate to that? >> yeah, you can obviously i think it was worse for us at the beginning of the campaign. at least for me. and then i think it last to become a way of life. i hate to say that at the same time, i think if you took personal offense to every little blog writer online. every columnist, every newspaper who you know has never liked you and probably never will like you, you would be in a state of massive depression. you have to develop a little bit of shield. have you to let things roll off your back. steve: that's tough to let things just roll off your back. ainsley: he says it's a lot ier now though because he is used to it. brian: the criticism hasn't stopped. heated up but yet he can't interact with his dad like he used to because he run us the business is he not supposed to have ties to. ainsley: ask him anything political. can he give his opinion. but he says i'm not quite aware of what is happening in the white house because i'm

he had to get hauled out. they took him to another venue at that particular college we just showed. and somebody got hurt in their car on the way out. what he was going on on some of these campuses? >> it's very upsetting to see all of this happening. and the irony is that protests don't usually happen on notre dame's campus. so this is really an anomaly. i think that the majority of notre dame student are committed to free speech and open dialogue on campus. and that these protests are being driven by a very vocal minority who seek to disrupt the event but this really have party of a larger trend of students who want to shut down ideas that they find disagreeable but the irony is that tolerant is really the watch word on campuses these days yet, only certain ideas are apparently worthy of being tolerated. steve: i'm glad you said that kate. some people look to notre dame as a paragon of virtue. and, yet, here, you have got this instance where you have got these protesters who are threatening to show up tonight and disrupt things.

who are these people? >> so we're really not sure. we know there is a protest planned by the college democrats and then potentially a few other groups. but, we don't really know what form the protest will take and we only hope they will be peaceful and not disrupt the ideas because we who are organizing the event think it's really important for the ideas to actually be heard before they can be debated. steve: right. unfortunately on a number of campuses, kate, and you know this firsthand for a lot of interler rant left it's either of my way or the highway it seems like we are on a tipping point at some campuses where regarding free speech it could go either way. >> i absolutely agree. it's really sad for me to see because i think when a lot of these students go out into the real world they're going to be disappointed when they're not able to be the most vocal dissenters and shut down speech with which they

disagree. and i think that could be a real wake-up call for some people but i just shown we can keep our campuses open to dialogue and expression. steve: because if you can't hear both side on a college campus, where can you hear it? interesting stuff. we will be watch toflg see what happens tonight. kate, thank you very much for joining us today from chicago. >> thank you so much. steve: 12 minutes now before the top of the hour. still ahead scott pruitt the guy who runs the e.p.a., senator lindsey graham, bill o'reilly and laura ingraham. a national celebrity after hitting the game winning shot in the most dramatic game of march madness, so what happened when this tarheel showed up for his 8:00 a.m. class the next day? he did. carlie shimkus is going to have the details coming up. ♪ i tried so hard ♪ i can't rise above it ♪ don't know who what it is about that little gal's loving ♪ i like ♪ i love it ♪ i want some more of it

patdown than she would have expected. here's how ms. williamson describes the situation in a facebook post. they detained arnl for well over a hour at dfw. treated like dogs because i requested they attempt to screen him in other ways. he has spd and i didn't want my child being given patdown. he set off no alarms. is he still several hours later saying i don't know what i did. what did i do? she goes on to say i am livid. brian: to me there is very little gray area there. that's out of bounds. ainsley: tsa said the agent did absolutely nothing wrong the reason they pat him down because his laptop set off an alarm. no matter how you feel about this whether he was doing his job or not or going a little too far; ainsley: laptop goes off. why didn't they send it back through the x-ray machine. >> very a very good question.

and appointed people that the trump -- the trump administration has put into place under attack. most high profile is general flynn. first, monica crowley e the next, of course, was kellyanne conway which really only stopped about a week ago. and then you have now the next one who has been a high profile republican and very successful and respected is devin nunes. he is now i in the crosshairs which prompted other lawmakers to call for him to step down as chairman of the house intelligence committee. ainsley: chuck schumer wants him to step down. wants paul ryan, speaker paul ryan to take his place. the democrats can give their opinion. he is allowed to say that but they have no theater to do that and enforce it. >> steve: what really got democrats agitated yesterday was the fact that devin nunes revealed as the chearnl of the house intel committee that he secretly visited with somebody, a whistleblower at the white house complex last week, the day before he had his press conference. here's the key. it wasn't in the west wing. it was not a white house staff or intel official.

apparently, according to cnn, it was at the nsc, national security counsel office was in the eisenhower building. the reason he met with the whistleblower there was because apparently they have got the kind of computer they do not have up on capitol hill. and this allows them to look at the secret stuff which apparently showed that innocent americans had their identities unmasked by somebody in the intel community. apparently this whistle blower decided not to go to the department of justice and with all the leaking -- ainsley: that's why trey gowdy says the white house, the waffle house, that doesn't matter. you are missing the point. the point is whistle blower. who leaked the information. brian: look back at the chairman's history he has done great work on benghazi. dare i say original reporting or investigation. to find out his own information through his own sources. and that's why he has been so successful and logical choice to be chairman. as soon as they got the

majority. so he wanted to do what he normally does. is he in a firestorm right now. and the reason is because people say well, we are in a russian investigation. and we want to find out what the -- if there was any collusion between the trump administration and russia and at the same time, devin nunes comes out and says i have got to brand some more information when it comes to the nsa listening in unmasking people that might have been involved in trump tower. he met with the press and then met with the president and then went to the cia. adam schiff is saying you should have come to me. that's why i'm asking for the chairman to step down. ainsley: they're mad because he went above their head so now they are calling for him to step down. steve: look, there is politics. there is an r connected to it. we are talking about republican and return sexual an. this guy, democrats say he has got to go. he was on with bill o'reilly, who, by the way, is going to be on this show in about an hour or so. he asked him if he was going to step down. this is what he told bill. >> he wants you to quit the investigation.

you're north going to do that? >> yeah, well, i'm sure that the democrats do want me to quit because they know that i'm quite effective at getting to the bottom. we are also investigating leaks as it relates to russia. now, you know, as you know, just recently i have found out, last week i found out that there was additional information that came forward to me that had nothing to do with russia. everything to do with whether or not americans were masked properly or, in fact, unmasked. i'm very concerned. brian: listen to this scenario. you have the unmasking of people. steve: a felony. brian: a felony. the question which is he pursuing and he might have the answer to this but hasn't shared it obama administration seen those names and allowed those names out into the intelligence atmosphere of all these different branches? was that part of the reason we are getting all these leaks. walls that flushed of out by the obama administration on the way out? steve: well, it's clear, if you take that information from

the security apparatus, the intel community and you leak it, that's a felony. whoever leaked it, that's a felony. here's the thing. nunes just said in that sound bite it has nothing to do with russia. this is the russia investigation. so why is the nsa doing this incidental collect of people not involved with russia? remember, the whole thing with -- under fisa is you have good to be talking to somebody overseas or somebody with a russian quick. no quick. and that, from what nunes has said in the last 10 days is what is so troubling to him. why is an innocent american targeted and then unmasked, a felony then when it is leaked to the press? brian: will adam schiff find it troubling like he find possible quicks between the trump administration and russia. he find it troubling and concerning. if this is found out to be the truth. and when he see he is the intelligence, will he find a microphone and say this is troubling and concerning? steve: every time adam schiff talks he talks about how there

is no evidence that, despite the tweet, that barack obama tapped the phones of president trump. ainsley: well, i sat down with eric trump yesterday and his wife laura to talk about their baby. i also asked him about this because he works at trump tower. there is evidence, allegedly that they were surveilled. i asked him about it. listen to what he said. congressman devin nunes says there might be evidence that trump tower was surveilled. you work in trump tower. they can be listening to everything you say. all your interactions. how do you feel before that? >> it's scary. listen, you saw what the tax returns as well where things just get leaked. this is personal information about people. think about how scary that is if people in government are doing that to further their own personal ageneral does or people net media are doing that to further their own personal agendas. steve: as we heard from the "new york times" reportage in january, in the final days of the obama administration, they

took some of these nsa documents and put them -- scattered them throughout the administration to do maximum damage to the incoming administration. is that party of what devin nunes is looking at? we don't know. but apparently he is going to make the information available to the balance of the committee this week. brian: other big story and the one thing that fueled the trump run for president, successful, was the fact that he waste going to crack down on illegal immigration. not hispanics, not canadians but illegal immigration here. especially focusing on those who commit crimes. the sanctuary cities are going to be no longer sanctuary cities if he became president. well, he is president. the crackdown has already started. it was official live put out there yesterday, that the attorney general, jeff sessions says sanctuary cities lose your billions and i will claw it back if i gave it to you already and you are not getting it if it's coming your way. if you do not comply with ice and call up, when you make an

arrest, or detain somebody, that does not have documentation, and it might be here i will leolaly. you have to call ice. if you don't, you're a sanctuary city. if you are a sanctuary city, you will not get these federal fund. steve: you know what's really interesting about the way session did it yesterday before the sean spicer gaggle was he said and by the way the authority we're using here came from barack obama. it was the obama administration just last year instituted these policies where you have got to cooperate with ice or else you are going to go your funding. it's funny they would do it that way. ainsley: sanctuary cities people committed crimes, illegal immigrants. ice is not knocking on doors anand -- steve: san francisco sheriff's department have you this illegal criminal detained right now. we will put a detainer waiver on. as soon as he is released. release him to us.

ainsley: i can't wrap my mind around that. what city, what mayor, what city would ever protect illegal. brian: chicago, san francisco, los angeles. steve: they are right now. ainsley: why? what's their reason for that? they don't want to keep the streets safe? then is blood on their hand if these folks go out and they commit crime? steve: they say they are well combing people, whoever comes to the city, they welcome. ainsley: even if they have done something wrong and commit a crime? steve: 300 of them. brian: seattle, new york city, chicago, all weigh in. los angeles have all weighed in and say they are not turning over any of their illegallies. steve: criminal illegals. brian: schooling, education and tax dollars to them here legally. making a choissments class size of 20 is 36, 166 those people don't speak english need special services coming out of your tax dollars. we need to have record of you. pathway to citizenship the first thing have you good to

do is report. ainsley: they need to spend a weekend with kate steinle's family with this little girl who was allegedly raped in the bathroom with her family and sit down and see how this effects them for the rest of their lives. steve: keep in mind regards criminal i will illegal aliens. heather: we begin with a fox news alert. police under attack. an urgent manhunt in miami after two detectives are ambushed sitting in their car. fellow officers rushing them to the hospital. they're in the back of that pickup truck there. this happened overnight. the undercover detectives were in unmarked car investigating gang activity. officers say that six people walked up, opened fire and then they took off. both of those officers though will be okay. and another alert out of maryland. we just mentioned to you. the father of that illegal immigrant charged with sexually assaulting his 14-year-old classmate is also facing deportation.

arrested for being in the country illegally. ice confirming that his son 18-year-old henry sanchez million was stopped at the texas border back in 2016 prior to his rape charge earlier this month. the teenager has remained at the center of the national immigration debate as maryland lawmakers consider sanctuary state status. and those are a quick look at your headlines. a lot more later. ainsley: thanks, heather. heather: you're welcome. steve: clinton's attack go to line against then candidate donald trump. >> russian interference in this election i think of -- should be of utmost concern to all americans. steve: oak, mr. op-ed e what about your kremlin quick. the man who wrote the book on the clinton cash machine peter schweizer about to blow the lid off this next. brian: that's what the president just pointed out. think about the little boy is okay for your first grader. if you do.

it is a fund directly funded by the kremlin. in fact, the russian science minister called rusano putin's child. so the vution government investing in one john podesta's businesses in 2011. while he is an advisor to hillary clinton. at the state department. steve: while is he an advisor to hillary clinton. okay. does anybody in the trump circle rye to the level where there is this kind of money involved? >> no. i haven't seen that yet. nobody that is, you know, has an advisory role in the white house has had this money exchange. and certainly et money hasn't exchanged farce we know while they have been add vying the ade president. steve: advising hillary clinton running for president and also at the u.s. department of state. but also wasn't he a special counselor to barack obama when he was president and did not disclose the fact that he had,

apparently, it looks like in his portfolio all this russian money? >> yeah. i mean, this is part of the problem, steve. so then in 2013, he goes to the white house, to be special counselor to barack obama. and that requires that you, you know, have financial disclosures every year. in his financial disclosure form in 2013, he not only fails to disclose these 75,000 shares of stock that he has in jewel energy funned in part by the russian government. he also fails to disclose that he is on one of the three corporate board that this entity has. it's got this very complex ownership structure. he discloses he is on the company in massachusetts, that is he on the board in a company of disclose also on the executive order of the holding company. that's a clear violation of the disclosure rules. and i think need to be looked at. steve: sure. what's interesting is there is such a double standard. members of the trump team may

have talked to some russians and, you know, we don't know the complete nature of that yet because the investigation is still out. may have talked to it, is a lot different than actually having money in the bank that's tied to the kremlin. >> yeah. i mean, look, i think the question is during transitions you always have conversations that take place. and you want to hope that nobody has made promises and there is no evidence that any promises have been made. steve: nope. >> what makes the podesta case clear is there was a transfer of money and there was transfer of a lot of money that stood to make john podesta a lot of money. that is unique and that's extremely troubling. because a at the time that transfer is taking place is he add vying hillary clinton state department. we know that from the op-ed emails he is helping her make personnel decisions. speech decisions. policy decisions. he is meeting with her monthly. it's a transfer of money from a foreign government, at the time. that is he advising america's chief diplomat, hillary

anti-jobs type of approach as to how we do environmental regulations. when you look at our history we have always had pro-growth, pro-jobs and pro-environment approach. since 1980 we reduced some key pollutants in our air quality program by 65% across the country. we have made tremendous process while at the same time growing the economy. this past administration didn't do that so it's good to see the president coming to the e.p.a. to set a new course to say we are going to be about pro-greta, pro-jobs and pro-environment. ainsley: you are dismantling this. big announcement is today. what does it mean to the average american family. >> it means opportunity. when you come in the generation of electricity as an example as a consumer. when you say you are not going to generate electricity through coal. when you're not going to generate electricity through fossil fuels and shift your entire portfolio or a good portion of that portfolio to renewables, that increases costs. we were going to see double digit increases across the country with respect to electricity rates that impacts jobs because manufacturer he is contract their operations when costs go up.

here to weigh in with more is south carolina senator lindsey graham. are you happy with the new dissemination of duties in the pentagon gets to call their own shots. >> i'm very happy from a war fighter's point of view this is great news. president trump says i've got good generals. he's going to let them be generals. the generals are trust be commander. still accountability in the system. the obama administration was mike drove crow management. they would have national security meetings whether or not you could deploy two helicopters. this is a great news for those fighting this war and bad news for isil. brian: right. we saw what happened in mosul. we know it's going to be door-to-door literally right now. we also know that 300 could have lost their lives the building collapsed the day after a bombing. what do you need to know on this? >> i would like to know -- here is what i do know that isil puts as many civilians as harm's way as possible. you are now in urban warfare environment where have you closed quarters and we are trying to help et iraqi security forces liberate me as you will sooner than later.

casualties is he unfortunately part of war when your enemy puts civilians at risk. here is what i believe. i believe more troops going to iraq will expedite isil's demise sooner. the sooner they are destroyed the safer we're here after the home. i applaud this administration for sending troops to the battlefield to protect our american homeland. brian: also engaging in yemen in saudi arabia. what's the message there. does that please you? a lot of people are concerned about expanding the battle field. >> it pleases me a lot. it tells the iranians a new sheriff in town. helping sawed disour allies. reins have toppled. houthies backed by iranians drove a pro-western government out of yemen. now helping saudi arabia reclaim that territory and put it back in the hand of those elected by the yemen people and standing up to iran. this is all good from my point of view. brian: senator, everyone is wondering what's next after the republicans big inability to solve healthcare. >> right.

brian: next talking about a possible tandem move. a major tax reform and infrastructure simultaneously. legislatively, is that realistic? >> yeah. i think it could be. the freezing rain structure really will entice democrats to vote whatever it is paired with all of us want more infrastructure spending. reoperate repatriot take that money and rebuild our road, bridges and waterways. bare that with tax reform or anything else you are-likely to get democratic vetoes. the failure in the house gives an opportunity too do healthcare together. i like it when i hear president trump say okay, we tried it republicans by ourselves, democrats by theirselves. let's do it together. which is the right attitude. brian: you know. you are a lawyer. former jag officer and it looks like there is going to be trouble with judge gorsuch getting 60 votes. only joe manchin looks like is he a yes for the democrats. are you for the nuclear option

if that is indeed the case. >> yes. i hope we don't have to go there. this is pretty outrageous. president trump could not have chose a more qualified person. 2700 cases decided by judge gorsuch over 10 and a half year period. one reversal by the supreme court. he received the highest rating by the american bar association of well-qualified. 900 pag900 assimilated by lawyed people that worked with judge gorsuch who say he is at the top of the legal profession. and it's just politics replacing reason. and if they filibuster this guy, that means that they have just been taken over by the left and want to deny president trump what president obama had, which was the ability to pick a supreme court justice. brian: so there is no turning back after that heidi heitcamp not weigh he had. in bill nelson says is he a no. you thought he would be a reasonable yes. senator warner looks like he is a no. senator lindsey graham things have never been worse between you parties. >> this is a low point for me. i voted for sotomayor and kagan because i thought they were qualified. i didn't vote for president

obama but he did win. what does this tell us? it means from the a democratic point of view qualifications of the nominee no longer matter. you know, bush 43, they filibustered his judges in 2004. we came up with a gang of 8 agreement to stop filibustering unless there was an extraordinary circumstance: the only thing extraordinary about judge gorsuch is how qualified he is. so democrats are giving in to their left. they are giving in the most liberal people in the country. this is going to hurt the judiciary for years to come. we have no options. i'm not going to set on the sidelines and watch them get their judges and we never get any of ours. so, pretty low point for me in the senate. brian: but you are in. you will go nuclear if you have to. >> i will do what i have to make sure trump is treated fairly. brian: senator, thank you so much for starting the day with us. >> thank you. brian: city girl who accidently ended up in the country. now a food network star the pioneer ree drummond and her

end of the show, some kids playing stick ball getting ready for free food. stop by on 6th avenue, and we'll give you a free hot dog. brian: laura in the studio, founder of -- fox news contributor. laura, welcome back. >> hey, guys, good to see you. by the way, the washington nationals were playing yesterday near palm beach. steve: yes. >> and it was a big game. i got tickets, and i didn't go. steve: why? ainsley: why? >> i had a little work to do. i guess it was sunday. i had a little work to do. i couldn't do it. ainsley: are you still there? >> no. i'm back in washington. but it's going to be a great season for the nationals. brian: there's a report today that the president will throw out the first pitch of the national game and then go into the food perhaps for a while. >> fantastic. want to see it. got to throw it right down the pike, though. no balls. high and brush him back from the plate.

steve: meanwhile let's talk a little bit about what's going on with the news. the latest is devon nunez shocked everybody because he came out and said, hey, i had a source, apparently it's a whistle blower. i met him at the white house last week. of course the mainstream media saying it looks like he has a source in the white house. there's no evidence of that. clearly somebody from government who had access to something the reason they used the white house, and you know this better than anybody, is because the national security counsel swedish office, they have access with the super-secret computer. what do you think about the fact now that because the democrats say devon nunez is colluding with the white house to save donald trump, he should step aside. >> yeah. the way to be really beloved in the mainstream media and by the democrats is to be a republican like lindsey graham or john mccain who, you know, can't stop themselves from criticizing

the trump administration. so that's how to become beloved. devon nunez campaign out and said good things about barack obama or adam schiff, they wouldn't care about any of this. democrats used to actually like whistle-blowers. i thought democrats thought whistle-blowers were great one time in the not so distant past. but now we have people inside government who apparently are seeing the corruption up close and are alerting congressman to what they see and now the democrats are against that? don't democrats care about the u.s. government perhaps, you know, incidentally spying on government officials or incoming administration? i think they care if it were obama. steve: right this is the way it's supposed to go. if somebody has information and there's a hearing, you go to somebody in the committee and say, hey, i have secret information, and then they try to get whistle-blower protection; right? >> that's how it normally goes. but in this case, what they're doing with nunez is that they

are using the classic tacts, demonize him, try to drive him out of his position of head of the committee, get people like lindsey graham and others to go after him, keep the media drumbeat going until they hope they drive them out. now there can't be a credible investigation. look at all of these people who are coming out saying he's not leading an objective indication. no report i've seen that devon nunez can't lead an objective investigation. when he did that press conference with adam schiff, i mean, that was bipartisan; right? steve: not really. brian: lindsey graham's defense, i think it's john mccain on his ohm own in terms of criticizing. i think he's been talking to happen as of late, and i think he's a fan of devon nunez. >> he was on the today show this morning, i believe it was this mork, saying devon nunez is leading like an inspector clouseau investigation. brian: well, i just talked to

him. i think he has a different take. ainsley: tray gowdy saying the white house, the waffle house, does that need to be the focus where this all happened or the focus that he could determine who's doing this leaking and who is unmasking? >> i think we have a disturbing situation in the united states when the intelligence agencies or contractors who work with them can selectively unmask the names of u.s. officials or american citizens just because they feel like it or because they have a political agenda. that's just as important as finding out what happened with russia and the elections. i think both should be investigated. we'll see where it all ends up. but both are very important. brian: what about the attack plan on some of the people we just saw video of? first you have to take out kellyanne conway and then monica crowley and then it michael flynn, and then you have to get senator sessions recuse himself and then go after devon nunez. i don't think anyone expected

this level of angst and attack. what is senator schumer doing calling for the oust are a of anybody in the house? why is adam schiff suddenly so troubled that he has to come forward after all of these years? this is a concerted attack plan against the administration that they have to -- they have yet to fully counter. >> well, i think that they didn't understand coming into this administration what actually i think steve bannon did that this is war every day. steve: yeah. >> this is war. they're playing for keeps. the democrats aren't going to go after individuals they think are ineffective. they want those people to stay in. they want to go after the individuals who are actually effective and actually like devon nunez probably getting to the bottom of this unmasking deal with the whistle-blower. they want to get rid of him. someone like bannon, they would love to get rid of him, he's an economic populous, the issues trump ran on, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. so this is about -- and i've said this before. they want trump out. they want him neutralized or

their dream is to have donald trump driven out of office before the end of the first term. that's it. ainsley: nancy watters is already predicting he's going to be impeached. did you hear her latest comments? saying they're more patriotic than trump supporters. listen to this and get your reaction. >> we have suffered discrimination. we have suffered isolation and undermining. but we stand up for america oftentimes when others who think they're more patriotic. who is they're more patriotic do not. when we fight against this president, and we point out how dangerous he is by this society and this country, we're fighting for the democracy. we're fighting for america. we're saying to those who say they're patriotic, but they turn a blind eye to the destruction that he's about to cause this country. you are not nearly as patriotic as we are.

brian: i don't know exactly what that means. >> i have trouble defining a maxine waters sentence. ainsley: she's saying if you go against this president, you're patriotic, so keep playing him. >> remember when the democrats, george w. bush were all upset when anyone questioned the patriotism on war on terror, now this is part of what they're going to do. again, we have to see this for what it is. they are out of power. they've gotten slammed against state legislatures. since obama came in in 2008, left office and lost state legislatures, lost all of these governships, lost the house and the senate, this is all they have and all they're going to do day in and day out. it's up to the trump administration to keep focus on the important issues that they complained on. getting this administration, these laws enforced, the economy, jobs, get off the side issues, focus on those

really important issues, i think they're doing that. we've seen some really good movement on the deregulation stuff, jarod kushner is going to do great work. this is good stuff. keep focused on it. brian: can they do infrastructure and tax reform at the same time? that's the rumor. is that possible? >> i think if donald trump wants to do it, and he gets into the -- some of the weeds and has his people lined up ahead of time, don't rely on paul ryan to do everything, the white house has to quarterback a lot of this stuff, if that, yes, he can. his instincts are usually spot on. when donald trump doesn't follow his instincts, i think that's when he gets into trouble. steve: real quickly, though. it sounds like if you read what he's been saying, he kind of blew up the freedom caucus last night into tweet. sounds like he wants to reach out to moderate democrats who can help him going forward. >> i think the freedom caucus

is going to do what is right and their constituents. like saying, oh, the freedom caucus should do this is, oh, i want to see the world in a way that it isn't. well, that's the world that exists in congress today. you can't threaten them into voting for you or supporting your campaign. that's not what they're going to do. you have to deal with the world as it is. if donald trump believes he has to work with moderate democrats, maybe he can put together a really interesting populous coalition. i don't think there's anything wrong with that. i've said that on trade and other issues for a long time. i think he can have some real success -- brian: i also think the freedom caucus has to ask themselves if they stand in front of everything donald trump is doing, would they rather have president elizabeth warren? >> they have to make some very serious calculations from now to the end of 100 days and the end of this year. they can't say no to everything, but they also have to be true to their constituents and their own promises that they made to their own voters. but i agree with you. it's a very difficult balancing act but donald trump

should stick to his instincts. they're very good contrary to what the media likes to report. steve: i was down in florida over the weekend, and i was talking to somebody, and i said what do you think about this health care thing and trump? he goes, look, he's just trying to create jobs. washington is trying to keep him from doing his job. >> being successful. i mean, to be successful. grow this economy. if the economy begins to falter, if the market takes a massive hit, and he continues to be less popular than he wants to be, it's going to be harder for him to get these initiatives through. he has to be a popular president to get these issues, and he has to understand that. ainsley: it's a boy. eric and laura trump recently announcing some big news. their first child. >> we actually found out on eric's birthday. >> and we told the family on inauguration day. we got back from the inauguration. >> they white house. >> what was amazing was how excited my father was.

it is if people in government are doing that to further their own personal agendas. ainsley: president bush said it was fine when he read a negative story about himself. but when he read negative stories about his own father, it was really difficult for him to handle. can you relate to that? >> yeah. you can. and honestly, it was worse for us at the beginning of the campaign, at least for me. and i just think it has to become a way of life, and i hate to say that. at the same time, i think if you took personal offense to every little blog writer online, every little columnist, every newspaper who you know has never liked you and probably never will like you, you would be in a state of massive depression. you just have to put up a little bit of a shield and let things roll off your back. steve: but that's tough when it's a family member. ainsley: absolutely. he says it gets a little bit easier, though. they're glad the campaign is over. brian: and maybe they can do that or is it locked before

eight years? steve: good question. brian: meanwhile on our run down, mike roe is here from dirty jobs to get those in washington to listen to real americans. remember, he testified. he's rolling up his sleeves, he joins us right now. steve: rolling up his sleeves. what makes this simple salad the best simple salad ever? heart healthy california walnuts. the best simple veggie dish ever? heart healthy california walnuts. the best simple dinner ever? heart healthy california walnuts. great tasting, heart healthy california walnuts. so simple. get the recipes at walnuts.org.

steve: we have got some quick tuesday morning headlines for you. first up, a couple of hours from now, president trump is expected to sign a sweeping executive order over job killing regulations. earlier the epa all right.

scott told us it's time to prioritize american workers once again. >> the clean power plan under the previous administration was really not about clean power, it was about picking winners and losers, and it costs us jobs, jobs in the coal sector, it's good to be about independence again. steve: also organized a drafting about climate change. and iowa state university professor asking students write september 11th, 2011 from the al-qaeda point of view. professor tells his class quote the point of the exercise is to completely consider different perspectives. brian: yes, finally getting the mind of a terrorist. ainsley: get in the airplanes and kill thousands of people. brian: mike roe is used to doing dirty jobs, ainsley, take it from here. ainsley: but he says the dirtiest job of it all could

be the bridge between politicians and dirty workers. steve: tv host mike roe. mike, just a couple of weeks ago you joined us on the roof of washington, d.c. >> i have no recollection of this. brian: what do you do for your career? >> it's just been a wild roller coaster ever since. steve: actually, something you said on the program went viral. >> i don't know where it came from, but we were talking as we do, and i said if you want to make america great again, you've got to make work fun again. somebody did the hashtag thing and now there are hats and shirts and everybody is saying how exactly are you going to do that? and i'm trying to offer credible replies. brian: the value of doing hard work, but you're putting your money where your mouth is and giving people an opportunity to do this. >> i try. the evidence demands verdict. and if you're going to talk about five and a half million jobs, 75% of which don't require college degree, it's

just noise and sound and numbers and people are, like, that again. but every year we do a work ethic scholarship program. it's not huge, but we set aside 5- 600,000, and we invite people for a skill that's in demand, essay, video, references, you have to sign a sweat pledge. ainsley: what is that? >> i drank some wine one night, and i wrote down 12 points. brian: they're great. >> well, it's sort of a hybrid between the boy scout law and, you know, a 12 step recovery program. but it's just really an anthem to personal responsibility and accountability and things like that. it's really a conversation starter. but the idea is to affirmatively reward work ethic. steve: and in particular blue-collar jobs. what jobs right now are available for americans that they might look down their

nose at but pay really well? >> my foundation, primarily, it's pretty broad but if you want to weld, you're going to work. we've trained a lot of kids, many of whom are making north of six figures. carpentry, the construction trades are all in demand right now. there's all kinds of stuff available in the big verticals you hear about health care and computers and all of that, and that's grade. but to your point, if you're willing to -- if you can really operate a welding torch, and you're willing to travel. ainsley: you'll do really well. >> you're going to kill it. steve: i earned gas and welding in high school. >> we still got gas. ainsley: what your parents taught you when you were little, no matter what your job is, just be the best at it, have hard work ethic, don't burn any bridges, and if you do the best you can, you're going to do well and be successful. >> if your whole model of job satisfaction is finding your dream job; right? it's a bit going out in the world finding your soulmate.

it's difficult. find a job and be great at it. brian: what about the bachelor? how dare you say that? i follow my passion, i bring that with me. the other one is i understand that life is not fair. >> well, that's fact; right? brian: right? >> but, look, it's also opportunity, you know? if you approach a thing knowing that it's not going to lead to a preordained conclusion, then you have to play the cards. you have a little better. you have to work. you have to own it. steve: you know, paul harvey used to own this radio commentary, and you stolen his idea. >> i did. shamelessly. yeah. thank you. it's called the way i heard it. you go to mikeroe.com/podcast, we're moving it up a couple weeks now because apparently people are listening to it. ainsley: wonderful. >> yeah, it's very flattering. brian: michael, see you on radio shortly.

>> are we doing our thing again? brian: absolutely. >> because last time you had me in this little despair, this corner with sheetrock and exposed nails. where are we going today? brian: oh, all of a sudden you need to have the white-collar life talking about a blue-collar profession. we were stuck in a tent on a roof. that's where we were. >> good times. i'm sorry. i should have done this earlier. ainsley: when are you going to congress again? >> if they have me back, six months. look what i just did there with all kinds of literary stuff flying around. steve: you drinking out of this mug right here. steve: it says fox and friends on there. >> it's not one of those sipe mugs? that's good coffee. it's not coffee. i don't know what that is. good god. brian: mike roe, try to get here and relax a little bit.

>> you know what you know? you need a devon. a fancy word for a sofa, brian. ainsley: what happened to you? you're all fancy now. >> i've been up a couple of days. i've made some mistakes, ainsley. ainsley: this is your only opportunity to take advantage of it. >> kick back, man. brian: kicking back. steve: you know what? most people when they're on a couch if they're watching tv, and we're all tv. >> i guarantee you 80% of your audience right now is on a couch. brian: or they're naked. >> wow. there's that fine line again, brian. ainsley: come back. >> oh, i will. i'll see you tomorrow. steve: meanwhile democrats, they know the rules. >> when they go low, we go high.

steve: well, looks like congresswoman maxine waters didn't get that memo. we're going to see what bill o'reilly think so about that coming up. brian: and the trump administration's new warning on aware cities and new book. those stories are all next when bill o'reilly comes to us and talks to us. hopefully. ainsley: we better clean up the coffee table. your insurance company

energy is amazing. how we use it is only limited by our imagination. and at southern company we're building the future of energy, for you. steve: well, today bill o'reilly comes out with a brand-new book. it is called old school. we're going to talk about that in a minute. but first, ladies and gentlemen, the king of cable himself bill o'reilly. good morning. >> here i am. brian: is it good to see us again?

>> rowe and i were just saying this program, the day goes downhill from here. brian: we usually try to bring it up. >> you just can't. steve: now, on your show last night you had devon nunez. a lot of democrats saying he has to go because he talked to somebody at the white house last week and gave him information about something that was going on regarding an american citizen's name unmasked, perhaps illegally could be a felony leaked to the press. what do you make of what's going on? >> well, i don't think he should have gone to the white house to look at the stuff all right? because that puts him in a bad position. you have to be looking at this kind of criticism coming his way. but beyond that, it doesn't seem to me anything nefarious; right? i mean, he -- somebody says, look, i've got documents, i want to show them to you. you assume that that comes from an intel source. he goes to the white house all the time. not to the white house, white house, but to the old executive about building and other structures and say. okay. we'll be over here.

because remember, the defense intelligence agency is based there. so there's a reason to do it. but he left himself open to all of these, well, now you have to recuse yourself, blah, blah, blah. steve: yeah, apparently they went over there because they have a computer to look at documents. >> whatever. steve: he shouldn't have said white house. >> yeah, he should have said, look, bring it to another place. ainsley: what about jeff sessions when it comes to sanctuary cities if you're not going to turn in these illegal criminals, then we're not going to give you federal funds. >> well, i predicted that would happen a long time ago within and it is. and it's a very simple deal. the federal government has a right to know if an illegal alien convicts a crime. steve: yeah. >> all right? it's just so insane. so all they're asking for is if you arrest someone, you being a city or a counter. all right? then you have to let us know who the person is. all right? and what the person did. and then we'll decide if we want to issue a retainer. so you retain that person or

detainer. you detain that. and then hold them until we get there. does anybody feel that's unreasonable? you're an illegal alien house parent or gardne gardener, do you want somebody in your neighborhood? no. they don't want these horrible, horrendous people in these neighborhoods. so it just blows right up. and if they're got an cooperate -- austin, texas, we're doing this on the factor big time. austin, texas, they didn't get federal money. brian: meanwhile i saw that devon nunez found -- saw that you were talking about this yesterday. i also think that a theme throughout your show that you picked up the fact that donald trump is under attack than the many people could have forecasted. i cannot believe how his people are being tabe taken

out, being targeted, and devon nunez has proved to be a competent congressman is now the latest one in the barrel. are you surprised? >> no. i told trump that, after i did the first interview after he said he was going to run. they're going to tear your throat out. they being the elite media, which is primarily left wing because they don't want you're worthy. that's the key word. that they don't -- it's not that trump is some conservative bomb thrower. he isn't. but they don't want he's worthy of this and they don't like him personally so there's no rules anymore. they'll tear your throat out and anybody that you hang with. and it's just disgusting what's happening. ainsley: not to be confused with jeffy waters. maxine waters. >> i love her. ainsley: why do you love her? >> maxine waters should have her own sitcom. brian: absolutely. >> i just -- people get angry with maxine waters. i want more of it. ainsley: okay. i'm so glad you asked. let's listen.

>> we have suffered discrimination. we have suffered isolation and undermining, but we stand up for america, oftentimes when others who think they're more patriotic, who is they're more patriotic do not. when we fight against this president, and we point out how dangerous he is for this society and this country, we're fighting for the democracy. we're fighting for we're saying to those who say they're patriotic, but they turn a blind eye to the destruction he's about to cause this country. you are not nearly as patriotic as we are. so i haven't what does that mean, bill? we've been listening all morning. >> i didn't hear a word she said. i was looking at the james brown wig. brian: if we have a picture of -- steve: it's the same one. brian: and he's not using it anymore. ainsley: i have to defend her on that. she's a -- you can't go after a woman.

plus, i think she's very attractive. >> i didn't say she wasn't attractive. i love james brown. but it's the same hair. james brown or the godfather of soul had. ainsley: so he had girl hair. >> whatever it is, i just couldn't get by it. you're all wrong about maxine waters. number one, she's a sincere individual. aware of she says, she believes. and that's old school. steve: old school, you have this new book coming out. >> so we're going maxine a break here. i love you, maxine. i want to see you on the factor and when hell freezes over, i'm sure that will happen. brian: let's talk about an old school person. >> yes. brian: give me an example of old school. people believe society has changed so we changed. you're saying we changed and societies has? >> here's why i wrote this book because i was becoming a snowflake. steve: a what? >> old schools versus snowflakes. steve: between a snowflake. >> i was becoming a snowflake because i was whining about all of these pc garbage that

we have to deal with every day that the college kids are upset if they see a trump hat. oh, trump hat. and i was getting angry and whining about it. and i said that's what snowflakes do. i'm doing exactly what the college kid who saw the trump hat did. steve: you were becoming the person who you were making fun of. >> that's right. so i said i have to do something. so i wrote a book about here's old school people and this is what they do and here's snowflakes. ainsley: give me an example. when you're raising your kids, give me an example of what did your dad did and what dads do now. >> say there's a thunderstorm. ainsley: okay. >> and all the kids. if i ever did that in front of my father, a naval officer fresh off world war ii when i was born, he would have taken me and tossed me out into the thunderstorm. all right? old school parenting is you have to confront difficult situations. you have to overcome difficult situations.

go in your room and pull a blanky on you. but snowflakes go, oh, no. don't say that to me robbie. he would never do anything wrong. that's the snowflake. ainsley: the kid is right now, the teacher's wrong. when we were growing up if your teacher said you did something wrong, in your opinion trouble. >> yeah. but there's some loony teachers. believe me, i know. i taught. i'm not throwing in. sometimes kids are right there. but it's a philosophy of life and in this book, old school, we spell it out i think in a humorous way. brian: right but do you think they were doing anything wrong back then that we got right? now. >> well, the discipline that you have to perform, you have to study, you have to work hard, you have to be honest. all of that is old school values. now if you fail, it's somebody else's fault. steve: sure. brian: right? >> he struck out. he -- it's because he got dust in his eye, you know? you can't do that if you want to succeed. ainsley: what about spanking?

>> i wouldn't spank. i've never done that. i never hit anybody when i was teaching in private school. i don't do that. brian: but the little rascals. >> the little rascals were felons. and they were in this country illegally. rascals came from guatemala. they came right in. brian: the only way to explainaexplain his hair. ainsley: how about his last book? steve: still number three. >> number three after a half year in the marketplace. ainsley: i don't know if that's ever been done. maybe brian kilmeade. >> if dad's a grouch, give them both books, it will shut them up for a week. if you're grouches, here. because you love them both. guys, thanks a lot. i appreciate it. ainsley: it's going to do well. i predict. steve: on the brand-new show. meanwhile, president trump

continuing to make good on this campaign promise. >> we're going to win so much, you may even get tired of winning. steve: the very latest victory for the trump administration live from the white house coming up next. brian: yeah, we're not talking health care. ♪ can i get some help. watch his head. ♪ i'm so happy. ♪ whatever they went through, they went through together. welcome guys. life well planned. see what a raymond james financial advisor can do for you.

coming back to the u.s., jobs, jobs, jobs, all caps, exclamation point. now, we don't know how many jobs will be created. but the detroit news is characterizing it as significant. we also don't know if this was an entirely new investment or if it was already in the works but the white house says this is all as a result of president trump's to michigan just two weeks ago where he pushed auto not to my recollection invest in the american workforce and build more factories here in the united states. now, on that trip, president trump also hinted that a major auto industry announcement was in the works. so this could be it, but we don't know for sure. ford is expected to make it official with an official announcement some time a little bit later today. brian, ainsley, and steve. steve: there's so much winning. kristen, thank you very much. >> thank you. steve: all right. next up on the run down, america's favorite pastime and america's favorite hot dogs are teaming up. the commissioner of major league baseball and mets hall-of-famer coming up in about three minutes. ainsley: but first, let's talk

to shannon and what's coming up at the top of the hour. hello. >> hey, guys, well, there's a lot going in washington. you've heard the increasing calls for house intelligence chairman devon nunez to step down. that's because he's onto something. the democrats of course want him gone because he's good at doing his job. plus the president has been tweeting up a storm on everything from some big announcement from ford to health care to russia. we're going to cover all of those angles plus the crack down on sanctuary cities and, by the way, they say they don't have to comply. so we'll debate that when bill and i see you at the top of the hour. with e*trade's powerful trading tools, right at your fingertips, you have access to in-depth analysis, level 2 data, and a team of experienced traders

the post season. ainsley: some say you have the best job in the country. >> and they're right. ainsley: how did you become a commissioner? >> i worked in baseball originally as an outside lawyer and then came in house and worked about 15 years before i was elected. like a long internship. brian: they made some changes to the game this year. the intentional walk. is that going to help speed it up? >> well, that will save on some of the pitch counts with some of the pitches. that will speed it up a little bit but anything to help the game move along quicker. >> we have a series of things we're looking at, conversation with players association, i'm hopeful over a period of time that we'll make changes that will eliminate some of the bedtime. >> stop the mound visits. you get behind the commissioner on that. >> any time the pitching coach, that means he's faking you out, and we did something wrong. steve: i rather -- forget about that, i rather vent at
