steve: republicans voting in kansas holding on to their congressional seat in the house of representatives with the victory of ron estes. it was a special election. they got extra attention in support of president trump. what does this mean for the mid terms? let's talk to the winner himself. with us is ron estes joining us from wichita. ryan, congratulations. >> well, thank you. good morning. thanks for having me on this morning. steve: it's great to have you. so, you ran for the open seat that had been held by mike pompeo there in the wichita area. he, of course now our director at the cia.
3:18 am
how did you wind up winning? >> well, i think the biggest thing we talked with the voters in the district about some of the issues that are going on in washington, people are really eager to make sure we do things like repeal and replace obamacare and reform the tax code and support free and fair trade. that's the message that we talked about and people really want support and they want a republican in the house to help do that -- work with president trump. steve: i tell you what, there have been a lot of pundits, i'm sure have you heard them in the last number of hours where they go, you know, the guy only won by seven points. might have been pompeo won that seat last time by 31 points. it looks like maybe the popularity of donald trump's party is not that great in a very red state of kansas. >> well, i don't know that you can necessarily compare the two elections. november election where president is on the ballot is much different than a special election where the turnout is very much lower. one the things that we saw in the special election is that
3:19 am
you will see republicans and democrats vote in a slightly higher percentage than independence. it's not necessarily a broad cross section of the district. what you want to do is make sure you get the folks out to vote that are as many as possible. that's really where we put our effort on was getting turnout. steve: you're actually the object of a -- one of the lead editorials this morning in the "wall street journal" that says a warning in wichita, and it says the real lesson of your election is that the republicans need to unite to demonstrate a record of accomplishment going in to 2018. if they can't bridge their differences, they're in trouble. if republican voters see little to show for the republican majority, they may not turn out. so, in other words, we saw what the republicans did with healthcare a couple of weeks ago, they couldn't get their act together, so people are thinking why do we need a republican house? >> well, i think there is a lot of popularity still in the district for the president. and real supportive of him. but, people did elect us to get things done.
3:20 am
and they want to see us working to accomplish things, particularly with the republican majorities and the white house in republican hands. so we want to make sure that we work together and that's one of the things that i'm focusing on when we get there. steve: terrific. what's your number one priority when you get to d.c.? >> well, i think overall i want to make sure we get a balanced budget. ultimately we just can't keep doubling our national debt every 8 years. we have got to get that under control and not spend more than we bring in. steve: you are not the only one who would love to see that happen. ron estes from the fourth district of kansas. ron, thank you very much for joining us today from wichita. >> thank you. steve: all right. good luck. meanwhile, reading, writing and sympathizing to suicide bombers. the new lesson offered to your children courtesy of the u.s. taxpayers coming up. pete hegseth is in the keystone state at the keystone diner in scranton, pennsylvania with friends. we're going to catch up with him as he pours the coffee.

presidential candidate donald trump and carter page, that's the guy's name responded to fox news last night. >> to get a surveillance warrant, the fbi has to have solid evidence. so how do you explain it? >> well, we shall see. again, there was a tremendous amount of false evidence and there is various reporting about where that false evidence may have come from, such as the dodgy dossier which we have discussed previously. so we shall see how that all plays out. brian: so why were they spying on a u.s. citizen in the first place? why did they go out to get a fisa warrant? judge andrew napolitano has been looking at this whole thing, the revelation, the report and the fact what if it was in fact true? first off, do you think -- does this sound true to you? >> i'm skeptical of it for a couple of reasons. if it is true or partially true. president trump confronted yet
3:46 am
again third or fourth time in his presidency with intelligence leaks intended to embarrass, humiliate or minute him. minute -- manipulate him. carter page worked in trump tower during the transition, we know the fbi was listening to conversations involving candidate trump and president-elect trump. here's one of the reasons i'm skeptical and the public needs to know this. the fisa court does not issue warrants for individuals. they wouldn't say we need a warrant -- i'm using this for example for brian kilmeade. we need a warrant for everybody at 1211 sixth avenue because we think there are conversations going on in there. we don't know who and what they are saying but something to do with national security. that's a very, very low threshold. it's not -- you may be the target, but it's not and i fooling of anything that you did anything wrong. it's just an authorization. brian: why would anyone authorize something that broad though? >> brian, that's the way the intelligence community works.
3:47 am
a, they don't want to reveal who they are looking for. if they are looking for carter page, they will not tell anyone they're looking for him not even the court. they will put him in a grown. one of the fisa warrants i saw, we all saw because they were eventually published. all customers of verizon. 113 million people. not saying gel one identified in the warrant. north a single one did the government have any evidence against or suspicion about. steve: judge, clearly this is another one of these stories that is put out there to try to damage the trump administration now that they are in power. however, if the fbi was looking at this guy last year, if he had done anything wrong, he would already be arrested. >> i would think we would know about it so why has this been leaked. steve: right. >> to influence the president of the united states. very, very, very small group of people is aware of what catherine just reported. i mean, really small. those people are professionals. either judges. steve: you mean the people that sees this stuff? >> correct. fbi agents.
3:48 am
lawyers for the justice department. nsa agents. steve: reporters are the last people who should see it but that's the problem. >> almost inconceivable that somebody in that group would commit espionage because the contents. warrant. who got the warrant and for what purpose is protected at the top secret level. you leak that you commit a felony. we don't commit a felony by reporting on it. we're protected by the first amendment. but the leaker who is trying to harm the president has committed a felony. steve: how hard is it to find that person. >> it's a small group. the person is probably a professional and didn't leave any fingerprints. ainsley: will we find out who it is? steve: no fingerprints. ainsley: somebody had to leave fingerprints. >> this question has been asked. we do find out about what susan rice was doing when we didn't think we would find those fingerprints maybe we will find these. brian: we know carter page has not meth donald trump face to face. not like it's his right-hand man.
3:49 am
ainsley: hold on got to raise a red flag here. democrats. if it is susan rice and president obama's administration, we need to find out information about the trump campaign, someone had to raise a hand and say is this legal? is this right? this is the republican nominee. >> i think you are giving more credit for intellectual honesty. ainsley: there has got to be someone who is honest and moral. >> do this group than they deserve. ainsley: it's the intelligence community. steve: they are honest folks as we are learning there are bad actors. >> absolutely. i have been arguing for a long time sometimes until i' m blue in the face the intelligence community has too much power and too much knowledge and they can use it tomorrow bare was and membership as they are tryinmanipulate as they aredoin. >> smear exar campaign. brian: steve, when the judge sits next to you does he grab your arm two or three times? ainsley: hey, well, judge, come sit next to me.

4:03 am
donald trump former campaign manager, fox news contributor and all around insider who knows everything around b. washington and investigating. david, you can't pick up a paper and not hear about the palace intrigue regarding steve bannon from the "new york post" to the "wall street journal" to the "the washington post." it looks like is he no longer on the good list for donald trump. you're the one who brought him in to the administration. what happened? >> well, first of all, you know, look, i'm hoping that they're going to be able to work this out. i'm hoping -- look, president has a phenomenal team around him. the president needs a deference group odiversegroup o. hope they will work it out for what's best for america and what's best for america. ainsley: david, you say work it out. what's happening behind the screens? >> first of all, greatfully, i'm not in there every morning. ainsley: yeah. but you talk to them.
4:04 am
>> of course i do. i do understand there are some tensions. but i do understand that they are trying to work it out. part of the problem is that it's the overblown nature of it. that the press is solely focused on this issue. steve: of course. >> it is interesting. the problem is it never let's anybody breathe. they understand it. you are in the fish bowl. you are in the white house. these things have consequences. if these folks have an opportunity to take a deep breath and come together, just like we did during the campaign. just like we did during the transition, i think it would be best for the president if everybody could come together, be one team moving forward. steve: that would be great. all right. we need one team moving forward because i'm sure you've seen the news. north korea sounds like over the weekend is probably going to have their sixth nuke test. it's interesting. it sounds like the president, when he met the chinese president last week, they have started some behind the scenes
4:05 am
negotiating where according to the "wall street journal" president trump offered china better trade terms in exchange for helping on north korea. he told the chinese president he would not accept a continued large trade deficit with china but he said and this is the quote, david, if you want to make a great deal, where he is talking to the chinese president, solve the problem in north korea, that's worth having deficits and that's worth having not as good a trade deal ace would norm i be able to make. is that the kind of wheeling and dealing is he doing with these world leaders? >> look, that's leadership. this is what we haven't for the last 8 years had. led from behind. the dire consequences we have found ourselves in after eight years of really weakness and apathy at home and abroad. and so president trump's a new kind of leader. he is telling everyone, evidence world leader around the world, america comes first in his mind. let's make deals that's good
4:06 am
for the united states. and that's what he is trying to tell the chinese. look, we want to work with you. we want to work with you on trade but you have to help us with this quite honestly what's considered a crazy leader in north korea. we have to get a handle on this. this is a very dangerous situation for the world. ainsley: david, will it work? number of google searches world war iii. trump war, nuclear war. and the word war. can president trump negotiate his way out of a world war iii? >> first of all as americans, we have to hope and pray for the president that he is able to do that. look, this north korea, the leadership there in that country is the problem into the president trump, not the chinese and not the russians it's leadership because they are unhinged. they don't put off a vibe that you can work with them. they don't work with other
4:07 am
countries in the region well and around the world well e president trump is coming into office and learning all of these things that he has he done. and i think that this is something that the president is fully in command of. and fully paying attention to. and i think if anybody can do it, he can. brian: david, in the big picture, you are fundamentally, whether you are with donald trump or ted cruz elected you're a conservative. >> yes, sir. brian: does it bother you at all that some of the things that president trump is doing are different than candidate trump? his vision on nate foe, his vision with china being currency manipulator. do these event shake your loyalty to him. >> absolutely not. he is our president and i support him on these things. look, let's go to china and manipulation. i understand that our treasury
4:08 am
department understands now that china stopped being a currency manipulator in know november upon president trump's election. for the last six months we have shown, i understand, that china has stopped that policy through president trump's tough talk he has been able to get them to change their behavior. and now if that is the case, and they are no longer currency manipulators and we are able to deal with them on a level playing field, that changes everything. the president has won that without having -- so he doesn't need to call them currency manipulators if they are no longer doing it. so i think these things have a life. look, with nato as an instance, you know, look, president trump is skeptical because he wants every nation to really pay their own way to lift and carry their own water. that's really what the crux of the nato issue was about and whether it's the criticism of nato or the united nations. it's that we, the united states, pay for everyone else. and i think that that's really -- but that's also
4:09 am
coming to fruition because these other countries around the world are starting to pay attention to that and doing more. i think you are seeing whether it's in western europe or around the world that countries are come to the table to say we're going to do our part. i think that's a win for america. steve: fantastic, if all it took was donald trump rattling their cage and suddenly they are coughing up more cash. >> it's about leadership. barack obama simply sat back and was really the puppet for the world. steve: sure. >> we now have a new sheriff in town. it's a great thing whether it's economically or for jobs or for our national security. steve: david, one other thing, speaking of leadership. one other thing that the president wanted to do in his first 100 days and i know there is still time on the clock is heck. republicans couldn't get their act together. there is some suggestion that maybe there is now enough of the republicans who would sign on to a plan, maybe in the next, you know, before the 100 days runs out, what are you hearing? >> i am hearing that things
4:10 am
behind the scenes are going well. i understand that during this recess, which is two weeks long for easter, last week and -- this week and next week. i hope that they come back from that recess with a house bill that they are going to be able to pass. i don't know if we're quite there yet. i do know that the freedom caucus and other members of the conservative wing of the republican party have come together to tell the president they want to. they did this at the beginning. i know they have come to him and said look, we want to pass healthcare reform. we want to repeal obamacare. we need to make sure that it's real repeal that people's premiums, premiums aren't going to go up. that they're not going to up next september and october. as the fear was last week before they voted that down. brian: fascinating to see the "wall street journal" today that he said wanted to do healthcare before tax.
4:11 am
jared kushner and ivanka trump mislabeled as the democratic faction of the white house. >> look, jared kushner is a friend of mine. ivanka is a friend of mine as is steve bannon. so what all of these folks are doing is working towards what they believe is the president's agenda. not their own. that's what people have to understand. this is about president trump's agenda. no more, no less. jared, of course, being his son-in-law, you know, is family. and ivanka is family the president has he has worked through his entire career leans on his family incredibly well over the years and they serve him well. in this particular instance, jared is the number one at harvard guy he is incredibly smart like steve bannon is i think diverse ideas, diverse voices amongst the leadership in the white house only makes the president better informed because he is the only one who
4:12 am
makes decisions in that white house. steve: ultimately. all right. david, thank you very much. ainsley: thanks, david. >> thanks for having me. ainsley: let's hand it over to jacque ibañez who has headlines for us. jackie: good morning everyone. exposing operations fast and furious under arrest this morning. this guy right here caught in mexico is accused of shooting agent brian terry on the u.s. southern border six years ago. terry's deal helped reveal fast and fewer use that allowed criminals to buy guns in the u.s. with the intention of tracking them in mexico. they lost track of nearly 2,000 guns. two of them found at terry's murder scene. authorities uncovering a terror plot right here on american soil. the feds arresting these two men accused of working for isis, even wanting to raise an isis flag on top of the white house. the fbi says joseph jones and edward both frommism know pledged their allegiance to the terror group online. the two handing over cell

people. i'm sure it will go well. ainsley? ainsley: thank you, brian there is a new policy in baltimore that many say could make that city more dangerous. this after the department of justice and attorney general jeff sessions reported that violent crime, look at that increased by 22% in the last year alone. many say this new policy will discourage arrests and even give criminals a i say so over how police officers are doing their jobs. here to weigh in on this is former d.c. homicide divecket defective and homicide detective rod wheeler. good to see you. >> good morning. good to see you, too, ainsley. ainsley: why are h they do this because according to jeff sessions it's going to make a dangerous city even more dangerous. >> it's absolutely ridiculous that the city of baltimore wants to take the handcuffs off of the murderers and take the handcuffs off the burglars and put the handcuffs on the police department. it's absolutely ridiculous. what attorney general jeff
4:48 am
sessions is saying, ainsley, let's take a look at some these consent decrees put the clamps down on police officers during the obama administration, review those decrees to make sure that's the right move we're making. obviously giving criminals any voice whatsoever is the wrong thing to do and jeff sessions is saying that's not what we should be doing. we do need to have police reform but it needs to be common sense please reform. ainsley: folks at home might be wondering what are some the changes ha are going to be made? this says police can't approach trespassers unless a complaint is made. police can't detain people in high crime areas or proximity to a crime scene. police should get verbal and written consent to search. police must seek permission from a supervisor before arresting certain suspects. so basically police officers have their hands tied. they can't go after a criminal when they see a crime. >> right. they can't do proactive policing. , which by the way, proactive policing is what keeps our cities and our communities safe.
4:49 am
what this decree says is these various decrees, 14 of them across the country, what it's saying is that police officers cannot basically go out and do their job. but what it also says is that police officers need to be restricted, ainsley. think about this. restrict police officers from enforcing crime from going after some of these criminals and hold police officers back. so, what is that going to result in? it's going to result in higher crime rates that we clearly see happening. in cities that really need police enforcement, those are the cities, such as baltimore, that's really going to suffer as a result of this. ainsley: you are right. >> jeff sessions is saying, saintsly. look, this is not the approach we should take. we need common sense reform. he does want reform. ainsley: why can't he make that happen then? why can't he change it, rod? this was signed on january 129. now jeff sessions is the a.g. why can't he say we're not going to do that anymore. >> he is getting push back. this is the reality. is he getting push back from a lot of these democratic

defense mattis spelled out the evidence the day before. >> well, good morning, brian, it's great to be with you. you are absolutely right. it's pretty laughable that they are coming out and saying well, honestly, russia is increasingly isolated on this, of course. you saw china abstained as well. if russia wants more evidence we m. are supposed to have any time inspections under the chemical weapons. if they didn't like the one haley put forth put your own forth get consensus from the world and get in there and get inspections and get information. you are right secretary mattis gave clear evidence it was there. middle east was looking for leadership. the world was leadershi lookingr leadership and our president acted. brian: just insurgents, rebels who did that and want to blame assad. look who is standing with russia, iran, an outlaw nation, hezbollah, a terrorist group, and syria, why that guy is alive is because of iran, hezbollah, and russia. that's it.

the western pacific toward him, and he responds calling it reckless, and he warns that this nuke attack, he's telling journalists you need to be prepared for a very big event, we have a nuclear test site. steve: yeah, and, in fact, there's this tank, they monitor north korea, they say that satellite images show that there is activity around this nuke site on the east coast in this cast tunnel, so look for that this weekend. so you've got. okay. so what we're seeing right now is we've seen that mr. assad over in syria is causing trouble. so who do we lean on? we tried yesterday to lean on obviously russia. if you have problems in north korea, who do you lean on? you lean on china. and according to the wall street journal, a couple of days ago, president trump was talking to the president of china said you know what? i'll give you better trade terms if you help us solve the
5:05 am
problem with north korea. what china is now saying to the north is stop your nuclear program in exchange for chinese protection. so it looks like donald trump, be the brand-new businessman who is president of the united states is using some negotiations to try to get china to lean onto north korea. ainsley: had that dinner with the chinese premier recently so when they say, hey, we're going to work with you on trade if you back the u.s. here. he told north korea to stop their nuclear program if they want china's protection. even the democrats are saying president trump is doing a good job. brian: yeah, a couple of things. china does deny -- they said they didn't know about any linkage between north korea and trade. number one. number two, they are also saying in a short time within ten minutes donald trump was convinced that the chinese leader told him about the history of north and china, maybe they don't hold all the cards and maybe they can control everything north korea does.
5:06 am
they also did do something else substantial. they turned around a coal chip that was going to be delivered coal to be purchased by china. they turned it around. we have also pledged to help sell them coal. ainsley: also the democrat support, michael a democratic strategist, he worked for john kerry, he said i actually give the president credit for this. steve: so does david bossie who joined us earlier. david bossie talking about the new kind of president we've got in the white house. >> president trump is a new kind of leader. he's telling every world leader all around the world america comes first, let's make deals that are good for the united states. and that's what he's telling the chinese. look, we want to work with you. we want to work with you on trade, but you have to help us with this quite honestly what's considered a crazy leader in north korea, and we have to get a handle on this. this is a very dangerous situation for the world. it's about leadership.
5:07 am
barack obama simply sat back and was really the puppet for the world, and i think that we now have a new sheriff in town, and it's a great thing whether it's economically or for jobs or for our national security. steve: what's interesting is the fact that if you look what's happening, maybe there is something to this. maybe china is softening its tone toward the united states because donald trump apparently told them last week that -- and how many times did you hear donald trump when he was candidate before he was president say china's a big currency manipulator. well, apparently now we will not label china a big currency manipulator because according to donald trump, they have stopped manipulating the currency. which is good for china and good for us, if china's helping us with north korea. ainsley: and china supporting what he did with the missiles in syria. brian: among the people who are critical, though, is senator schumer who said the president is not coming out as strong as president against chinas he was as a candidate.
5:08 am
and he says he needs to. so let's talk about russia if we can for just a little bit. a couple of weeks ago, vladimir putin said i see the chinese leader coming over here. i know you have a visit from the king abdullah from jordan, when am i going to visit? when you're at c7, send secretary to see us. and he said fine. we sent the tomahawks where "they" a heavy military presence in syria. now i guess it's going to be cut off, this meeting then. but it hasn't. the foreign minister said come on, rex tillerson, i'll still meet with you. it's not going to go well. so they had a press conference where they talked at each other, not to each other. and he thought lavrov came off better. i actually saw a lot. what i saw, i liked tillerson's demeanor was stoic, it was serious, and it didn't look like we needed a hug for the first time in a long time. but then a surprise came. a call from vladimir putin. if you want, i'm available for
5:09 am
about two hours, and he visited with him. steve: he did indeed. some of the highlights during that press conference that our secretary of state had with the foreign minister was lavrov said russia, not so sure that assad carried out this gas attacks, which is interesting. and rex tillerson said it was fairly well established that russia did do some meddling in our u.s. elections in 2016. so after all of that, then the president of the united states was at the white house with the guy who runs nato, and he had this assessment of how our relations are with russia. not good. >> right now, we're not getting along with russia at all. we may be at a all-time low in terms of relationship with russia. this is built for a long period of time. but we're going to see what happens. i'll also see about putin over a period of time. it would be a fantastic thing if we got along with putin and if we got along with russia, and that could happen, and it may not happen.
5:10 am
it may be just the opposite. ainsley: all right. ensemble that, mainstream media. all of you are reporting that there's collusion between russia and president trump. he's saying, no, we're -- this relationship is at an all-time low. maybe after the cold war, i would argue. but jenna goldberg said it's fair to say that president trump and putin that puppet story line is officially dead. steve: that's right. brian: overall, i think we're going to look back and say why was the president so determined not to be critical of russia during the early part of his presidency and during his candidacy? i think it's the same mind-set that hasn't taken a backward step when he made the comment about mccain or the gold star father that was critical of him. he does not like to take a step back. even if the louisa hodge says take a step back, his success in life is leaning forward. if you think you're right, i'm going to go forward. he says my goal would be to have good relations with russia. i'm not going to be bullied into some consultant telling me that's not the way to play it. steve: but that's the way
5:11 am
barack obama played it before he was president and the way george w. bush played it. so that's where we are right now. they all hope for better relations but right now, we're just about as low as you could go, according to our president. ainsley: uh-huh. brian: and plus the women's national soccer team beat the russian soccer team by five goals. that's not going to help. steve: we have a soccers team? brian: the women's national team. steve: oh, gotcha. brian: i consider us america. that's all i've got. big response from bobby herman. ainsley: jackie has more. >> i've got a couple of things. 11 after the hour, the cartel member suspected of murdering a border agent exposing operation "fast and furious" is finally lates under arrest this morning. this man caught six years ago. terry's death helped operation "fast and furious," an atf program that helped criminals

i want to see more. brian: president trump doubling down on his border walls for the border wall with our own fox business superstar maria bartiromo. but house speaker paul ryan says he wants to wait until next fiscal year to pay for the wall. >> the big chunk of money for the wall really is next year's -- next fiscal year's appropriations. because they literally can't construction even this quickly. brian: really? so what does that mean? let's ask candidate secretary of state chris who made illegal immigration one of his passions and where he's cracking down. chris, first off, your reaction to the republican speaker knowing he has a republican party saying we're going to start now. >> i'm not too alarmed by what speaker ryan said. you know, the fiscal year in the federal government actually begins on october 1st and right now, we're just taking gids bids on who will build the wall, we wouldn't break ground until june or july anyway. so i think what speaker ryan is saying most of the bills are october 1st, and he's probably correct.
5:19 am
the republicans in congress would be committing political suicide if they didn't make this wall a reality. president trump, it was his number one promise. brian: well, it would be bad for president trump but maybe not for them. i did speak to a couple of republican congressman who said, yeah, i'm not really in texas. who said, yeah, we're not big on the wall there. so some people on those border states are not as aggressive as others. >> well, you know, every state's a border state now, brian. illegal immigration affects the jobs markets everywhere in every state. it's killing taxpayers with all of the public benefits that illegal aliens consume. so i think that -- whoever said that was being shortsighted. brian: all right. so you wanted to crack down on americans voting, what did you find? >> we also announced yesterday that we had our first conviction of an alien who voted three times in kansas elections. and his conviction is just the tip of the iceberg.

in that same county, we know of 24 other aliens who registered to vote, some of whom voted and others attempted to register. but we can't prosecute because the statute of limitations has run. more than five years old. it's a huge problem. not just in kansas but nationally. and we only see the very top of the sliver of the iceberg because it's so hard to detect when you have a noncitizen on our voter roll. brian: have you been cooperating with the vice president as he does his probe about voter fraud? >> absolutely i have advised the white house on this problem of noncitizens problem. the problem with people voting in two states in the same election and other forms of voter fraud. absolutely. brian: chris, thank you so much. and you were able to pull it off tuesday without a hitch. chris, thank you. all right. meanwhile coming up straight ahead, we've got enough problems. russia, north korea, and now a new feud between michael strahan and kelly ripa. why can't they get along?

5:26 am
chick-fil-a to open up on campus? >> i don't know they're a bunch of babies. college is supposed to prepare you for the real world, not shield you from opposing opinions. and safe spaces do exactly that, you know? who doesn't want as an undergrad chick-fil-a on their campus? i would have killed for a chick-fil-a on my campus when i was there ten years ago. and, oh, by the way, ainsley, nobody is forcing them to eat at chick-fil-a. they can eat at the student union where i eat every day. they have pepperoni rolls there. lots of options, people. ainsley: so what is your message to the students there that are protesting? >> well, my message is toughen up. there are no safe spaces in the real world. if you're going to be successful in this life after you leave college, you've got to learn to embrace adversity and open yourself up to a litany of different opinions. you will never be the ceo of a major company or an entrepreneur or manager if you're not willing to work
5:27 am
with people that are different than you. period. end of story. that's what college is supposed to do. and in my mind, college is not just colleges across the nation are failing in that way. i got my undergrad and masters there. so many of the students just want to celebrate god through their education and do good things for people in the world. and a great majority of those people used to come up to me and be, like, i don't know what happened. we strayed from our past. the mission statement and cross is in every classroom, and they used to say to me that that mission statement is now a tombstone, which breaks my heart because i love ducane university. ainsley: so that is your message to the students there that are part of this alliance, the gay straight alliance. the president. we reached out to happen, and she sent this message to us. i fear that with the chick-fil-a, it might be people will feel that safe place is at risk.
5:28 am
it would be a really big deal for lambda and the whole lgbtq community on campus. if someone could make a statement to eliminate the fear of being marginalized by having this business on campus. so what's your response to that? >> that is -- i'm sorry, but that is the dumbest thing i've ever heard. ainsley: why? >> well, because it's safe spaces don't prepare kids for the real world. you know what that is? that is fascism cloaked in free speech. that is her basically saying that if you don't believe the same thing that i do, you need to leave my campus, leave my university, get out of town, or shut down your business. that is not what america was founded on, and that is not what universities were founded on either. and truthfully, she should be ashamed of herself, you know? if i was the president have ducane university on every application there would be no safe spaces on this campus.

and pete is having breakfast with friends this morning in pennsylvania where the show the office -- do you know the show the office? brian: unbelievable show. they sell paper. >> they do. they do. and they do it not so well. but this diner does it really well, frank we've been here all morning. i'm here with brian, marianne, and frank and, brian, we've been talking about politics, the news of the day. what we're hearing. it's all about russia; right? russian collusion. that's what the mainstream media is talking about on the coast and the elites. brian, first of all, what do you do? >> i'm in the financial industry. >> and what do you make of how president trump's doing so far. >> i think personally he's doing exactly what he would do. go down in washington, shake things up and at the same time i'm hoping that he deregulates a lot of federal regulations. >> so his critics say here we are, 84 days in, controversies, problems, what do you think of what he faced? >> i don't think he understood
5:37 am
when he went down there how slow washington is. and i think he's with executive orders trying to move things as fast as he can, and they're just backing him up. continue to move forward with the agenda that he went through -- that he complained on. >> the things he talked about. absolutely. marianne, you were not a trump supporter, but you're willing to give him a chance. >> absolutely and i agree with everything that ryan says. however, i have even more deeper inclinations about alienating other countries, thinking you can do it alone, not thinking that you need these other countries. and i think in the long run, that could create a lot of danger for our country. >> sure. you said pro-life issues are a big thing for you. how do you feel about neil gorsuch? >> i have some pros and cons on him, but i'm willing to give him a chance. >> that's all you can ask. >> i'm always that way. >> that's a great way to be. frank, you're a trump supporter as well.
5:38 am
what do you think of his first 84 days? >> good morning, comrade. >> he doesn't speak russian. i found out. washington doesn't work for the people. you have a leader like trump that has all of these ideas that are really easy, smart ideas. and look what we have. we have the democrats and the republicans not pushing the issues forward. so i want to thank all of my democrat friends that have the guts to throw off the narrative and vote for donald trump. you won't be disappointed. >> a lot of them right here in pennsylvania. >> scranton we lost to hillary by only 3,000 votes and that's miraculous. i have a lot of optimism for donald trump and locally because we're ready to make those people work for us, pete. and when they all work for us, we will all benefit no matter what religion, no matter what political affiliation. >> well, ised. and while folks in washington might want to write an obituary, here there's still where people can get it done. this is the keystone invader challenge. i don't know, guys, if you've got a clock down clock there.

5:40 am
brian: but they throw up right after. steve: ainsley, you asked for it. there it is. it's going to be covering brian. look at that. brian: even during the pillow commercial that's coming up next? it's going to stay up there? steve: there's pete. going maybe for a glass of water. ainsley: oh, changing location. brian: i think he would have cheated because there's so much other people down there who would have jumped in and ate with him. ainsley: or maybe the countertop is higher there? closer to his mouth. steve: he's the joey chestnut of fox and friends. our own pete -- ainsley: what was his name? bobby who? steve: joey chestnut is the world's number one competitive eating champion. ainsley: oh, okay. great. reading, writing, and sympathizing with suicide bombers. the new lesson that might be offered to your children courtesy of your tax dollars. steve: great. and forget everything you know about real estate. soon, you'll be selling your home with a drone. that's right. property man bob massie can explain live from vegas. next, baby. tech: when your windshield needs to be fixed...

5:46 am
steve: i'm doing okay. now, i understand this weekend you're going to be talking about drones and real estate, and, you know, i've got a personal story. my wife and i were walking around my neighborhood, and i heard something, and i thought what's that weed wacker? sounds like he's behind us, moving over that way, and then it was over, and we looked, and we realized it was actually a real estate agent who was taking pictures of the house next door. >> the way the future is. it's actually right now one of the stories that we did on there is this realtor who obviously uses drones and what it does is it gives -- look, shows a panoramic view of the neighborhood, you get an idea what it looks like, you could do things inside the house, outside the house, around the house. it's the new way of selling and the future, and it's only going to get more sophisticated. but there are concerns about does it invade with other people's privacy? but it's part of the marketplace. there are certain restrictions they have to abide by. but that's the way real estate is going to be sold, particularly in a lot of luxury areas. steve: absolutely, and it does give you a good lay of the land.
5:47 am
but what about the neighbors? let's say you're next door to somebody who's trying to put their house up on the market and the real estate agent is flying a drone overhead and invading your private space. >> well, one of the things i tell realtors who use drones is make sure you go knock on the door and let the homeowners' association know that you're going to be doing it, let the neighbors know that you're going to be doing it. and a lot of times there's restrictions to it, so you sort of have some disclosure here so you don't get neighbors calling and saying what the heck is going on here? who's looking into my backyard? risk of the business. steve: sure. that is a really nice house that you feature in the drone episode of property man. where is that? >> that's down in scottsdale. we did 12 shows in arizona last year. we did scottsdale and phoenix, arizona. scottsdale, i'm sure you've been there. spectacular. some great homes, great area, and great people. steve: very, very nice. also this week, i know you're going to profile kent and lisa who are struggling ever since the recession to make sure
5:48 am
they can stay on top of their mortgage. >> one of the things we've learned, steve, from the first two seasons of the show, people love history, so we're doing wriggly's mansion that was built in 1929. steve: cool. >> they love personal stories because they can, in fact, identify with that. and then at the end of the show, we do a thing called the massie memo, which we talked about a few minutes ago where i sort of take the issues of the day that we covered and give people tips. but, yes, the reality is this: there are still people today in 2017 that are struggling with lenders and services of the loans. we're going to let people out there what the rights are and what they can still do. steve: catch the property man, folks, it's on fox business network 8:30 p.m. eastern time tomorrow night. bob, thank you very much. we look forward to season 3. your best season yet. >> thanks, buddy. happy easter to everybody. god bless and have a great holy week. steve: indeed. god bless you. thank you, bob. meanwhile, easter canceled after christians were targeted by isis in egypt.

steve: churches in southern egypt have canceled easter celebrations this year to mourn the more than 40 christians killed in those two palm sunday attacks carried out by isis. brian: so why don't you hear more about those? especially if you turn on other channels this morning. ainsley: care to weigh in on this is managing editor of ewt news and author of a new book. we had him on to talk about the book. excellent read if you want to pick it up for you and your family. raymon, thank you for being with us. >> excellent. and i get the trifecta. this is a horrendous moment we see. we should mourn this moment that terrorism has allowed entire people, indigenous people of egypt to basically call off easter because they're afraid for the safety of these people. when you've got bombs being driven into churches, when
5:54 am
you've got suicide bombers, they found one of the two guys who set off these things last sunday, palm sunday, but it's a very dark, holy thursday for hoof people and a dark passover for many. ainsley: was that the right move you think? >> well, i'm not sure if it's the right move. i like the idea of the united states using its leverage, frankly, creating a safe zone where they can a symbolic sign where the fate continues despite terrorism. that should go on. steve: but the ultimate safe zone should be at church. >> i agree. steve: and then last sunday, palm sunday somebody from isis taking credit put a bomb under the pews and blew up a bunch of people there. so obviously people now going to ground to stay safe. >> people don't realize last year 90,000 people lost their life around the world for their faith. steve: wait a minute. 90,000? >> 90,000. in china alone, 100 million people are persecuted every year for their faith. that's freedom house statistics.
5:55 am
this is a global phenomenon in sudan, in nigeria, they're burning vigils, committing unspeakable atrocities against women and children for their belief. in small communities, there are some muslim groups even being persecuted in certain parts of the world" it's a war on god. >> it's a war on god and belief. and we need to take a wider glance beyond just syria. you have to look to iraq, refugee camps. these are un camps. there's a lot of this going on, and we have to somehow find hope in all of this darkness. and that's what i think this season particularly is about. ainsley: how do you find that? i know you have a heart for children. you teach them literacy, so how do you teach our children? >> well, my series is a adventure series, but it confirms the staff of moses and the plagues that fall on a american town. ainsley: perfect during passover too. >> perfect this time of year. i got a letter telling the kids we teach it about passover.
5:56 am
i didn't realize that it was a big part of passover tradition. so they're using it in that way. but we have to find hope where we can find it. and easter and passover remind us that sometimes in the midst of darkness, there is this great light. that's really what my series is about with a but more importantly, it's what we should be this time of year. steve: the series is wilder, now up to two. thank you very much. ainsley: and he goes into schools and gives them books, kids that normally would not have access to books. so you're a good man. brian: pete goes into diners and eats their special. will he finish it? we'll find out in a matter of moments. all finished.
