♪ leland: wouldn't believe about this now, but she just got done running 10 miles. more on that soon. a lot of news to get to first. and leland vittert. welcome to trans event from washington. >> i am elizabeth prann. russia's meddling in the 26th election as speaker the chairman of the committee republican senator richard burr of north carolina says they'll start by interviewing 20 people in the first session of closed-door meetings, which could begin as early as tomorrow. meanwhile, president trump's ambassador to the united nations nikki haley is also making news today with this statement. >> i think russia was involved in the election. there's no question about that. >> garriott tenney has more from

washington. to determine if russia modeled in our election or the sensor which they did. the fbi, the house and senate intelligence committee. the investigation by the house has received a lot of criticism over chairman tenney shared information with him and not the entire committee. the white house has denied it had any hand in not being done and was not an attempt to circumvent other members of congress. on friday the committee's top democrat, adam schiff went to the white house review the documents for himself in this morning on the state of the union, he is still not buy a new administration's explanation. >> a deputy assistant to the white house informed me when i went to see them that these are exactly the same materials shown to the chairman. this is a very interesting point. how does the white house the white house know these are the same materials shown to the chairman of the white house was

unaware what the chairman was being shown. >> would chairman devin nunes review those last week, he announced there is evidence suggesting the president and his aides are paid doctor of surveillance operations after the election and illegally included in a report spread across the intelligence community. congressman schiff has not said it is also not prevent that took place which is something the white house is pointing out to defend his handling of the information. >> or something of substance to know about. frankly i think if there wasn't some thing of substance, you would've thought ... not from the white house and come out and declare this is a big waste of time and a big dog and pony show. reporter: despite the hiccups and delays, senate intelligence committee has a number of close or hearing scheduled for next week including testimony from analysts who wrote "the intelligence report" earlier this year showing that russia did not interfere in our election. elizabeth: thank you. carrots sub one.

leland: a member of the house intelligence committee. peter king of new york. appreciate you working on a weekend, sir. >> thank you, we land. trigger the president was working before you headed out to his golf club. the real story turns out to be surveillance and leaking. find the leakers here that was one of his tweets early this morning. if the president read about this but the real story is the leaking of surveillance and unmasking of americans names? >> the president is partially right. both of these issues are extremely important. we have to examine fully whether there was any collusion and extent of that collusion. that is number one. number two, fax and if there were leaks, if there was surveillance of the president-elect of the night dates, that's an extremely important issue. both of them have to be looked at. from my understanding after nine months of the fbi investigation after what we've been lucky not,

there is no evidence that all of any collusion, any significant evidence at all. there is no evidence that means any day between the trump campaign and the russian government to russian intelligence. no evidence at all of any improper action. leland: that is a fairly emphatic statement and the deputy white house press secretary picked up on that this morning. take a listen. we will get your reaction. >> well, they have something, they would've found it in the last month. they don't. let's move on and focus on something that could have substance. that is the surveillance story. straight through the white house wants to quote, unquote move on from this. you seem to be saying this is serious enough to warrant investigation. bridge that gap for me. >> yeah, this is still ongoing. as i said, as far as i know, eight or nine months they are showing improper conduct by

anyone in the trump campaign as far as russian government for russian intelligence or any type of collusion. having said that. leland: hold on, hold on. adam schiff this morning was saying that he's seen things that are a lot more than circumstantial. everybody on the committee is able to see the same thing. what are we to believe here? >> adam schiff is ranking member may have seen some that i hadn't seen. i also know from talking to devin nunes, he said that he sees nothing at all, again nothing incriminating the show solution. i think i know adam schiff is talking about. i don't see any collusion at all which means the trump campaign and the russian government. if you want to say individuals, you can show people in the clinton campaign because respect it in the world we live in today. i disagree with the white house in this extent. we have to examine everything.

it shouldn't be leaked out. we should be looking into everyone who had any involvement with the campaign, any allegation at all. so far as far as i'm concerned we have to ask where that all the way. we have to examine the leaks, which are very important. leland: you bring up the next one point in your statement there that you know what adam schiff is talking about. we are not going to discuss the substance of it. you say i'm trying a different conclusion. any reason people could agree that this has become hyper partisan. you see something i say it means nothing. a democrat looks and says i've got a smoking gun. as you point out also, these are serious issues that need to be looked at. how can the american people be assured that in the end from your committee that is now split on partisan lines we are going to get the two. and it's going to be something more than press conferences

called and say about sources and i'm not going to tell you who they are for believing this is a big deal. how can the american people be assured they are going to do the truth? >> in the end, hopefully we come together as one side. we can only lay out the case without giving details. devin nunes does believe he's a competent source or that information cannot be used until it's made to everybody else. in the end it turns out there'll be nothing there. if it is significant that would also come out. we're playing too much of it day by day game on this. they by day monitoring period will happen in the end there will be a final report and that the american people decide to these guys do their job or not? are they trying to cover for anyone or not? i agree you'll have a republican report, minority report. i hope it doesn't come to that. when i say i disagree with adam schiff, this is just a difference of new-line or different emphasis.

at this stage, after they failed to somewhere. there's enough to continue to pursue it. >> congressmen, in the meantime we appreciate you coming on and talking about it day by day. certainly a lot there. have a great weekend. we'll see you in washington. leland: lives. elizabeth: great interview. president trump tweeting this morning saying the republicans failed to repeal this odometer is not dead yet. the house freedom caucus in this corner to get it done. kristen fisher light at the white house at the latest. reporter: president trump has been critical of the house freedom caucus so much so that yesterday a senior administration official says one of its member should be defeated in its primary. "the new york times" called it a vengeful attack. today a different senior administration officials say it is inaccurate. here is why. >> i don't think so. this president made bold and big

commitments to the campaign. the intent on keeping them in a month to members of his party to get on board with that. is at the same guys that also campaigned on repealing and replacing obamacare. we have an opportunity to do that, so let's do that. it's also the promises to the american people. that's what it's going to do any hopes that this group will get on board and be part of that. >> to tweet that started it is from social media director didn't give me now. he is bringing auto plants back to michigan. the trump trains defeat him in the primary. the congressman responded by saying the trump administration have merged into the trump establishment. same old agenda, attack conservatives, libertarians and independent thinkers. now, coming under fire for violating the hatch act. he is accused of breaking the law by using his official position to influence elections. the white house is not true because it came from his personal account and not

official white house. the president is planning to president is planning to offer to people is central to his effort to repeal and replace upon a care. budget your niche mulvaney and grandpa a fierce defendant of the original plan. this essay inventing golf as in life, if the follow-through that makes all the difference. today president trump clearly trying to follow through on its promise to the american people despite his first attempt to repeal and replace obamacare. leland: not a slow day. even on the weekends. thank you so much. leland: tomorrow the senate judiciary committee will vote on judge neil gorsuch supreme court nomination. the real fight over whether or not gorsuch will advance to the nation's highest court will have been on the floor united states senate. carolina shively with us as the battle lines were certainly drawn this morning. hi, caroline.

reporter: judge gorsuch will be confirmed this week no matter what. >> exactly how that happens will be up to her democratic colleagues. it is noteworthy that no supreme court justice has ever in the history of our country then stopped by a partisan filibuster effort. >> senate minority leader chuck schumer maintains the first time for everything. he says the conservative judge doesn't have the votes to get the 60 to break a plan the democratic filibuster. schumer says that means republicans made to drop gorsuch and pick another judge with input by the democrats. >> a republican friends are acting like they are a cat on the top of the tree and they have to jump off with all the damage that entails. come back up the tree, sit down and work with us and we will produce a mainstream nominee. >> senate democrats have broken ranks and said they vote for gorsuch. joe mention of west virginia and heidi had about north dakota.

they are both in red tape with grapher election campaigns. so about six foci of getting gorsuch to 16 outlays for, with the so-called nuclear option. requiring just 51 votes. they established the president in 2013 for the lower courts but never been used at the supreme court level. timing wise, here's what to look for. there's a key procedural vote thursday morning that could set up a confirmation vote writing night before senators plan to head out for easter break. leland: an exciting week for sure. thanks, caroline. a lot to talk about on this. elizabeth: for more insight, let's bring in congressional reporter with "politico." thank you for joining us. we heard in reporting there, senator mcconnell confident he will be confirmed. i am curious to you not only the obvious question, will they have filibuster proof go to do that, but a sissified democrats want to pay? is this the nominee that they

want to really put up a fight against? >> great question. i find it particularly interesting that democrats are willing to die on this hill for the nominee. it's interesting because a lot of democrats across the country has praised gorsuch. you saw obama's solicitor general kaman and say he would be a good pick. fitchburg, has said if they are going to do this, what should be the first time in history the president does not get an up or down vote, he will basically well of the senate rules. that is a huge deal because they created the senate to be the bipartisan institution whereas the house is run by a majority vote in the senate unique bipartisanship to do anything. in pushing mcconnell to the spring when he's going to get confirmed anyway, you know, artisanship is tearing apart the institution. reporter: is their appetite for that? you have critics say within the fact we are politicizing supreme court justices disgraceful.

>> you will hear that from people of from people is covered to senate confirmation for 30, 40 years because at one point i felt like this. trade absolutely. definitely unprecedented. i think it speaks to how toxic trump has become for the democrats with the far left-wing, liberal wing is really pushing their senators, house members not to cooperate with trump. being a party of no. hold them back, do not do anything to work with him. right now we see a lot of democrats on the hill. democrats from red states who typically think would help the senate in the spring misguided authority given up or down vote. they are pushing back. they're afraid to be seen as working with trump. that's how toxic the environment is. elizabeth: labatt bite them in 2018? we talked in caroline's report their six vulnerable democrats to be targeted perhaps this rainbow. obviously more they are looking at.

does it behoove them to fight back like that? >> i think this is a tough choice. claire mccaskill, democrat from missouri, red state, swing state will be up again. this is a hard choice because she has people in her state who want her to advance the nominee even against him in the end. she has a democratic base that is pushing hard to block this nominee. she is making a gamble. she's kaman and said she will be for the filibuster. she's not going to help advance in and she's basically making the scandal that in the end of the time 2018 comes around, the trouble be so toxic and that will be a good thing she stuck with her democratic base instead of a bipartisan basis. elizabeth: we heard from senator mccaskill, even the weekly address was really pushing for democrats to stand down. over the next couple days, who do you expect to hear from and what lawmakers are you keeping an eye on? >> we're really watching senator bennett right now in colorado.

we've seen obviously gorsuch is from colorado, so there's a lot of ad supported and that are running for senator bennett c. -- excuse me, stay. the liberal wing of his party in his state is pushing to go against it. we are hearing that they're some sort of a protest at one of his offices in colorado as soon as tuesday. they will push into the nominee and he really puts them in a corner and they lose either way. elizabeth: rachael bade, thank you so much. we will sue a democrat decide. appreciate it. leland: keep it right here on the fox news channel for the latest on the battle over supreme court nominee judge neil gorsuch. you can see the entire chris wallace interview was senate majority leader mitch mcconnell starting 2:00 p.m. eastern right after the show. don't miss it.

leland: 200 people dead, hundreds were missing after flood waters from three rivers says church during colombian city overnight in the cleanup still continues. rescuers through piles of rocks that would grant -- by what you call an avalanche of water that

was triggered by extreme rainfall. the country's president as you might imagine has declared what you are eating right now a disaster zone. boston prayers. elizabeth: absolutely. domestically, mother nature is also making her spring present no two people in central texas cleaning up after powerful winds and damaging hail hit that area. the phone patch is a damage in accidents than across the south are bracing for even more severe weather to start the week. meteorologists adam klotz is that the fox weather center. tell us what are those folks in the country expected this week? reporter: the system you're talking about continues to shift was the east. the exact same one we see the hailing taxis yesterday continuing to run along the gulf coast throughout the rest of today eventually lingering into the overnight hours. looking at 35 offers the houston texas at this point portions of louisiana. end of shreveport area to the south a storm on the ground for the last several minutes will

continue to his only lift its way up to the north and off towards the east. wouldn't be surprised if this be more tornado strands in the next several hours. this is a really big one. your threat throughout today into the overnight hours and it's really a bull's-eye in the area we see is not very often you begin to get this high range but that is what we see today which means conditions are ripe to see more dramatic activity also in the extreme region. still stretching from east texas to louisiana before eventually this with the tough further to the north. through the overnight hours and should weaken a bit good nonetheless, bringing in storms. future radar can pay attention to the timestamp in your corner. our by our out of texas by 6:00, 7:00 to settle into portions of louisiana before final and assaulted the north in arkansas and places further to the north it should be weakening as it has that direction. there's your goodness and there's plenty of time we concede that whether on texas, louisiana. this will eventually continue to

fight along the gulf coast. we are actually going to be looking under tornado threat slowly shift in that direction as well. tornadoes already a very active year. typically things ramp up in april and over towards may. the last couple months we been above average consistently and already looks like we are starting off april on a bigfoot here. elizabeth: adam klotz with the latest. thank you. leland: a group of skewers in russia may need an extra cup of hot chocolate or perhaps some vodka after a ski trip. the scantily clad skiers are part of the google alpine carnival. 1200 people hit the slopes in swimwear in an attempt to break the world record for the group that was set last year. they had they drove to cover it all. this is the kind of ski trip you need vodka before and after.

elizabeth: i love skiing and i also love wearing clothes that looks like there have been a great time, so i totally support it. what did you say? leland: i have no idea. we will check the tape at the end of the show. elizabeth: president trump wants to jumpstart his border wall but you need something from congress. while they play ball? our panelists here to answer that question. as the senate showdown loves her with a supreme court nominee, what will it take for mitch mcconnell to make good on this prediction? >> we are going to confirm judge gorsuch this week.

the slopes like i used to. i even accept i have a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. but whatever trail i take, i go for my best. so if there's something better than warfarin, i'll go for that too. eliquis. eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin, plus had less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis had both. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily... ...and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk

if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. i'm still going for my best. and for eliquis. ask your doctor about eliquis. >> what i'm telling you is that judge gorsuch is going to become earned.

the way in which that occurs is in the hands of the democratic minority. during the course of the week, we will find out exactly how this will end. but it will end with his confirmation. >> when a nominee doesn't get 60 votes come you shouldn't change the rules. you should change the nominee. >> was senate majority and minority leader to their battle lines this morning for what could be an historic week in american politics. the chance stop in a court nominee bipartisan filibuster for the senate rake in its time-honored tradition of a 60-vote threshold to break it. let's bring in our political panel for a fair and balanced debate. republican strategist, former communications director for marco rubio's 2016 presidential bid. and dan tanana, president at the chanute group and that meant obama campaign. great to see a peer >> afternoon. >> great to be here. leland: dan, give us the calculation for especially those

in the 10 state that trump one that they are coming up in 2018 for reelection. so they say i'm going to be an obstructionist. >> i'm not sure they are saying that, leland. we made a big kiss and 2016 that there'd be a big potable price to pay if he didn't confirm merrit garlin under the more democratic view of circumstances. you can't make the case in retrospect the republicans lost their seats because they didn't have a hearing on mr. garland. they are thinking that the base for democrats is activated in the same at the republican race is activated in 2010. anything that comes from mr. trump given other questions about russia, the questions about the agenda he wants to push will come at a higher price. they understand that they need to be holding him accountable and they will be held accountable to their base on the left. leland: that is the democrats calculation. what is mitch mcconnell

calculation and it comes to the filibuster rule going nuclear. >> twofold. one is there's never been a 60-vote threshold for a supreme court nominee in the past. two members of the supreme court right now, alito and thomas confirmed with less than 60 votes. they had more than 50, the less than 60. they will set a new standard by saying this nominee needs to achieve 60 votes in the, was calling them out on that. the second thing is this will likely not be the last nominee supreme court nominee that donald trump gets to a point. the next one could very well change the balance of the court. so let's go ahead and pull the nuclear option now to get rid of the filibuster rule so for the next on the political cost is no tyrant can dominate either one. >> back and play both ways in the sense that they were great for republicans this time around. they may not work so great for republicans if they are in the minority come 2018.

>> that's the obvious point and totally true republicans don't confirm the senate and may not have been in two years. another inside point is the fact that mitch mcconnell now can talk talking being basic alignment with paul ryan and donald trump on big issues that mitch mcconnell do some of the freedom caucus telling his chamber, his body what to do. sometimes the 60-vote threshold can help the majority leader stopping things before you get to the chamber have been a rational use for not moving forward on something that is a requirement on the far right. all of a sudden the freedom caucus will push paul ryan which will get an assignment as there is a 60-vote special legislation, mitch mcconnell will have a tough spot to hold that line in between donald trump and the house. >> that brings us to where we are right now. buy right now i need right now is president trump is out to sunday at his golf course 30 miles from the white house with none other than brand paul. sort of the most vocal member of the united states senate that spoke out against the health

care bill. this goes not alex. you think about what coming up here for this president. you've got big hearings on the wall and immigration that is a signature part of his campaign. he's got a possible government shutdown, tax reform he wants to push through and is still not giving up on health care. is this reach out to show we say a certain part, perhaps you can say fringe of the republican party there were a bit or should he hoped dogleg left and take up with the democrats? >> is certainly doesn't hurt. playing a round of golf with grandpa was not going to make o'donnell tries political problems disappear overnight. we'll have. we only have a two vote majority in the u.s. senate. that is very narrow when you talk about doing bit complicated and difficult care reform for overhauling tax code. april will be a pivotal month for donald trump's presidency even though his presidency is still very young.

march was a disaster. april he can get some things done. supreme court nominee confirmed as we just discussed and can fund the government at the end of the month. they have momentum coming out of april. >> political version for the may flowers. always good to see you guys. have a great sunday. elizabeth: welcome and follow from the failure to repeal and replace obamacare. how could it affect the president's proposed budget and tax cut? we will talk about it after the break. my business was built with passion... but i keep it growing by making every dollar count. that's why i have the spark cash card from capital one. with it, i earn unlimited 2% cash back on all of my purchasing. and that unlimited 2% cash back from spark means

elizabeth: failing to repeal and replace obamacare may have implications on the other items of president trump's agenda including the next two items on the docket passing a budget and reforming the tax code. local lawmakers do now without the savings from a new health care program. you break it down, the president of the committee for responsible federal budget. thank you for joining us. >> thanks for having me. elizabeth: i also want to talk about april 28th. we had a list of requirements for the president. he wanted to have 3 billion for border security for border box of extra spending for defense programs and also $18 million in spending cuts. are we going to see an event honored that members of congress? >> i think this is an interesting example of how it works between republicans and the president. my guess is they have a very small amount of window to pass the budget for the rest of this year and really do want to turn their effort into serious budget.

so this year i think they are just going to have something that continues to fund the government the way it is. i don't think any and they are going through approved for the president. i don't think it will be because the big focus will be for next year. if he wants more spending for defense, it won't be part of the entire budget process for keep in mind the budget introduced and asked for these things is what is called a skin a budget. there's only funding request for the rest of this year and next year. not the full 10 years which should be covered in his next budget in a month is more comprehensive and more importantly it looks that discretionary spending which is one third of the budget. doesn't talk about entitlement spending and it doesn't talk about taxes because of the big items in the budget. this is a placeholder. really it will be what happens next year in fiscal 2018 budget. >> all of these items are linked together if you will. it is a a myth that the failure

of the past i've been a health care alive, helped or hindered any plans for tax reform? >> the answer is it depends. first politically they have to get tax reform done. they have to get that done before because it's one of the major agenda items that the republicans. even more important obviously with the failure to get the health care repeal of none. such a central plank to what they intended to do. elizabeth: dayside getting the health care through then they would have more time. they really have to come up with something. >> yeah, something that has been in the works for decades. not just years but decades. we have had a major tax reform since 1986. the tax code is desperately in need of reform and a lot of ideas out there for changes to make that that's not to say tv. tax tax reform is difficult because you want to reduce the rope. i think that's true.

but it's more important part of this is also paid for if you want to promote economic growth. you have to offset the revenue losses at getting rid of a lot of tax breaks. that's what i think it's difficult. people and corporations love their tax breaks. the question is will this be a real package that reforms the tax code which could help grow the economy or if it is just tax cuts, that will lead to our national debt. it might not be as helpful for the economy reforming the overall code. they've been working on this for a long time, but it doesn't mean the hard parts go away. the hard part is where it gets tricky and have to decide to make the choices. elizabeth: logistically we know gary cohn and dan steve mnuchin have the president have the president's have the presidency are. do they also have the president's ear and is he getting that advice? >> yeah, i don't know how this will work out in the white house

press congress. but tensions have, because help her was so difficult to do. it's a huge part of the economy. the question will be where the main objectives for tax reform start and i think they'll come out at the white house. whether they were closely with congress, the new congressional leaders to navigate through congress. a big part of this is community. everybody's business community wants tax reform. as you talk about for you broaden the base, there are some winners and losers. if we decide to do a sale is part trillions of dollars, that can have real economic damage. they wanted the business community to stay lying to stay line about tax reform as well. elizabeth: thank you so much. busy spring, busy summer. leland: this spring, the boston marathon in a few weeks. >> she's alive and looking for me. it was just a mutual feeling. leland: brought together by the

horrific bombing, how these four strangers became the closest of friends when we come back. had t conversation with my dermatologist about humira. he explained that humira works inside my body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to my symptoms. in clinical trials, most adults taking humira were clear or almost clear, and many saw 75% and even 90% clearance in just 4 months. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. ask about humira, the #1 prescribed biologic by dermatologists.
