julie: the white house sporting a brand-new financial report and that could raise the questions about possible conflicts of interest and julie banderas and this is "the fox report." the trump administration releasing financial data on nearly 200 top white house aides as required by s. at -- ethics rules and the disclosures revealed the president top -- or well off compared to most americans. at the top of the chart first daughter ivanka trump and for son-in-law jared kushner are both now official white house advisers. together they are worth at least $240 million from their various

4:03 pm
his usual targets. what was that? >> it was kind of a backhanded compliment directed at "the news york times" for a story that was headlined obamacare choices could go from one to zero in some areas. president trump posted on twitter this morning he said the feeling "new york times" finally gets it. in places where no insurance companies offer plans there will be no way for obamacare customers to use subsidies to buy health plans. in other words obamacare is dead good things will happen either with republicans or democrats so president trump indicating in no uncertain terms that he is willing to work with democrats if members of the house freedom caucus do not get on board and then today we got our first real taste of just how far this white house may be willing to go to retaliate against members of the conservative caucus if they do not get on board. dan scavino who is the director of social media here at the white house posted on twitter quote donald trump's bringing
4:04 pm
jobs back to michigan in justin amash is a big liability likely trump train, defeat him in the primaries. the best we can tell this is the first time somebody in the trump administration has come out and publicly taken sides in a republican primary so this serves as a very stern warning to other republican lawmakers on what could happen if they don't get in line with this administration's agenda. julie: president trump is spending the weekend at the white house with the vice president and in fact traveling this weekend and he is in ohio today. what is he doing? >> he is in ohio today and this is the second week in a row that the vice president has traveled to a state that they won in november. last week he was in west virginia and today as you mentioned he was in ohio during manufacturing facilities and small-business owners. he told them the presence top priorities are creating jobs, jobs amort jobs and ranter what the white house has done this week to help achieve that goal.
4:05 pm
he pointed to president trump signing two executive orders want to put america on the path to energy independence and another two to help level the playing field in international trade deals. >> 93% of manufactures are excited about what they have in store and a president trump's leadership. so are the american people. people of this country have not been this confident about our economy since year 2000. >> the vice president doing his best to get this administration back on message and highlight the strength despite the russia investigation is continuing to overshadow almost everything else. julie: kristin fisher thank you very much. the white house also releasing financial disclosures for armor national security adviser michael flynn. documents detail blends financial activities dating back to 2014 and show he earned more than $1.3 million for work on local groups and government contractors including speeches to russian companies.
4:06 pm
this is whether the senate intelligence committee has denied flynn's request for immunity in the investigation on moscow. garrett tenney is live from washington with more. garrett what else have we learned from these financial disclosures about flynn's work with other countries? >> to country stand out in this disclosure, turkey and russia. friday michael flynn filed the disclosures to do with the white house showing he made speeches for three separate companies. one of them was for russia's state-sponsored television network archie and the others were russian airline and a russian cybersecurity firm. the forms don't say how much he was paid for the speeches only it was more than $5000. separately in the update disclosure form flynn declared more than $827,000 for the work he did with his consulting firm flynn intel grew. last month he filed as a foreign agent with the justice
4:07 pm
department for lobby work he did for firm in turkey for more than half a million dollars worth. again we don't know how much that flynn earned personally only that it was more than $5000 of those are a lot of questions that investigators at the fbi as well as the house and senate will certain they want answers to. julie: what do we know about the status of him to testify in exchange for immunity? >> the house-senate intelligence committees as well as the fbi on capitol hill we have been told it's too early in this investigation before even discussions but at this point it's also something they are not ready to rule out altogether. we do know michael flynn is one of the top targets of this investigation. members of congress has said he would likely need to have some pretty strong evidence implicating someone higher up in order for him to even consider a deal. another part of congress's investigation is the unmasking
4:08 pm
of trump transition officials and intelligence reports which is what happened to flynn shortly before he was fired. >> those are classified documents. when you deal with sources and methods and how we gather information that hurts us long-term in our intelligence and if anyone does it for political gain something that affects us in our national security long-term that is in active criminal defense. >> they start at the bottom and work their way up and remember the house and senate intelligence committees are just beginning to start interviewing witnesses. they have a long ways to go before they get to flynn. julie: garrett tenney in washington thank you so much. it's april fools' day and the russian foreign ministry did not let it go by without poking fun at the americans hacking scandal. the ministry sharing an audio file meant to sound like a voicemail prompts. it suggest to press one to arrange a call from a russian diplomat to a political opponent. press two if there is evidence of russian hackers and three for

4:10 pm
neil gorsuch one way or the other. julie: doug mckelway has more on where the fight is heading. >> hi chilly with the senate vote on sipri part nominee neil gorsuch looming this week is a lot of 11th hour jockeying. the senate democrats to the 60 vote threshold to filibuster his nomination. that's important because they are both from space the trump one eight. just yesterday missouri democrat claire mccaskill also facing a 2018 re-election battle also from estate the trump one added herself to the no list and plans to the nomination yet she told a private gathering last sunday that gorsuch is one of the better ones. >> it's hard to find any reason except for obstructionism on why fellow democrats in her caucus have not been able to join them. mccaskill offered this warning about the democrats on why they
