it sells for just over $2,300. that comes out to about $2 a beer. up to you. buy it if you want. celebrate. i'm sandra smith. here's harris faulkner in for shepard smith. >> after a victory, republicans are getting ready for the next battle over healthcare in america. it won't be easy. with one republican senator saying it has zero chance of moving forward. others say it has a bumpy road ahead. we'll have updates from capitol hill and the white house. when chris wallace joins me, i'll ask him how people feel about the changes proposed so far. unemployment just hit its lowest level in a decade. what it means for our economy and your money. are two of the planets most dangerous nations about joining forces? a connection with iran and north kor

korea. and who is trying to kill kim jong-un? the assassination accusation. it's friday. time for the news. i'm harris faulkner in today for shepard smith. you might call it a healthcare hangover. some bracing for changes to a republican healthcare bill that is just barely a day old. it's headed to the senate, as you know. the deputy press secretary said the president expects changes, but wants the main pillars to remain the same. some republican senators have announced they're not going to support the measure without major adjustments. as we watched on fox news, the white house celebrated with a news conference at the rose garden. the house passed the measure 217 to 213. somebody noticed cases of beer being wheeled out through the hall. no some say it could get bumpy. lamar alexander said we'll be writing our own bill. the senate could use the house

measure as a resource for ideas. moderate republican senators have criticized one of the major provisions for rolling back the expansion under obamacare. conservative senators say it doesn't go far much the to replace obamacare. so it works this way. the house passed it, the senate will do its own dance. if changes are made, it goes back to the house for approval. the president declared victory on twitter today. big win in the house, very exciting. when everything comes together with phase two, we'll truly have great healthcare. last night hours after the vote, he said this is a great plan that is a repeal and replace of obamacare, make no mistake about it. john roberts is live for us outside the white house. obviously. good to see you, john. >> good to see you, harris. there's a phase 3 the president didn't talk about in the tweet. he's trying to take this a bite at a time.

he got phase 1 through the house and now looking at phase 2 and needs to get phase 1 through the senate. as you pointed out, yesterday was about the celebration. this is where the process is going next. the president optimistic that he can get this thing through the senate. the big question is, what is it going to look like when it eventually gets through the senate. there's some people on the republican side saying, you know what? i like what the house did. but we're going to do our own bill and start from scratch on all of that. at the briefing a short time ago, i asked the principal deputy who made her debut. let's listen in. >> on the process of getting the american healthcare act through the senate, there's some talk they may have to go back to the drawing board. it's a heavy left getting the hda through the house. does the president expect the process in the senate could be even more difficult? >> i think that the one thing that you can be sure of is to never underestimate this president. he's shown time and time again

when he's committed to something, it's going to get done. he's made no secret. he's committed to reforming the healthcare system. you'll see that process take place. >> the main pillar that sarah huckabee sanders was talking about, quality healthcare, access to healthcare and a lower price and more consistencconsis. >> people are waiting to see in the next phase, the idea of going across state lines for your healthcare. we'll watch for that. what did the white house have to say about how the bill handles people with pre-existing conditions? >> this is a big question that a lot of critics have. the way it's crafted, it allows states to seek a waiver from the mandates of essential healthnd conditions. the president has said on repeated occasions that it absolutely has to cover pre-existing conditions to people that already have an illness have to have access to healthcare. that's one of the reasons why

fred upton of michigan and billy long of missouri came to the white house the other day, because they shared the same concerns. they came up with the plan that would designate a pot of money towards premium support for people with pre-existing conditions. sarah huckabee sanders on that point. >> one of the biggest priorities of this bill particularly for the president was ensuring that people with pre-existing conditions were protected. the final bill added an additional $8 billion to go a step further. >> the big question is whether or not $8 billion is enough to cover all the people that had pre-existing conditions. the white house suggesting, harris, the number of people that go into premium support could be very small compared to the overall population. >> you know what? i want you to stay where you are. we want more from john roberts. the labor department says the jobless rate hit the lowest point in a decade last month. the feds say unemployment was 4.4% in april.

down 1/10% and the lowest rate since 2007. u.s. employers added 211,000 jobs in april. better than predicted. we're going in the right direction. the current pace of job growth right now could mean bigger paychecks for a lot of people. on the big wall, a look at the unemployment numbers for the past decade. economists say employers have added jobs every month since october 2010. now let's get back to john roberts who is talking economy. john? >> a big change from the job numbers that we saw back in march and as well the first quarter gdp. first quarter gdp was about .7%. the white house didn't have a lot to say about that. again, they didn't blame the obama administration for leaving them with anemic gdp growth. he said all we do is we believe the president has set conditions to be robust job and economic growth going forward. you have the april numbers

showing 211,000 people got new jobs over that month and that the unemployment rate ticked down to 4.4%, which is a new low. sarah huckabee sanders was asked about that and here's what she said. >> we saw from the very beginning the president the president was elected, before he took office, you saw consumer confidence go up. we've had meetings with countless ceos, small business owners, people involved in job creation tell us that they're much more confident in growing businesses and growing the economy. >> the jobs numbers beat expectations. 185,000 jobs were created. 211,000 and unemployment down to 4.4%. at the same time, jobs created are up and the jobless rate is going down. the labor participation rate also dropped a little tiny bit. it was 63%. it's now down to 62.9%, harris.

>> we go a two-fer for you. thank you. >> you got it. >> and one of the senators say the new healthcare bill has a 0% chance of passing the way it is. he said senators will have to make some major changes before they can pass it. that's how it works here. other key republicans have said the senate will write their own bill. the number 2 republican in the chamber says he won't set a timeline at all. he says they'll do what they have to do when they have to do it and pass it when they have the votes to pass it. mike emanuel has more. mike? >> harris, good afternoon. senators are saying to the house, thanks very much and they look forward to getting to work on this major issue, healthcare. john mccain and lindsay graham are asking for an analysis from the budget office and the cost and impact of the house bill. others are already talking about looking at making improvements. >> that's going to need more work.

i'm working with john thune on an amendment to address that right now. medicaid, we have to make sure it works for the states that took the expansion. >> ohio senator rob portman not pulling any punches saying he has serious issues with the house bill. he said "i already made clear i don't support the bill as constructed because i can't to have concerns that this bill doesn't do enough to protect ohio's medicaid expansion population and those receiving treatment for heroin and prescription drug abuse". there's 52 republicans in the senate. portman and just about everybody else is really important, harris. >> the american public that voted like single issue on this is kind of anticipating that this is how it works, right? they go around around make some changes. people are not talking about are the democrats and all of the bipartisanship that they talked

about was possible in all of this. it will be -- i'm curious to see how it works out. what is next in the senate? >> bottom line, those that have been talking about healthcare, i'm told they've talked for months on the senate side and what they'll do when they get a bill from the house of representatives. those involved in the talks say they're looking forward to getting cracking. >> we'll move ahead with deliberate speed. we're doing that because exchanges are collapsing and people could be without insurance, premiums go up if we don't act. but we want to get it right. there's no artificial deadlines. we'll carefully consider the legislation passed by the house. >> we heard about democrats talking about improving obamacare. some democrats said they're willing to talk with republicans about improvement if not quite repeal and replacement of obamacare. >> it's important to get it into the senate. if we take healthcare seriously, we'll put the bill in the

committees, get the cbo information, bring stakeholders in like the american cancer society, hospitals and doctors to talk to us about what they think and embark on a committee process to make it better. >> senators are saying there's no timeline. harris? >> yeah, i harken back to president obama wanting to change his own legislation 30 times in doing so by executive order, i think. i think i remember some of that. he didn't even try to go to his own people. let's see if they can come to the table, as you put it. mike emanuel, thanks very much. >> thank you. >> standing by now to join me, chris wallace. we'll talk changes for americans who have those pre-existing conditions. i've asked our team to give me a list. the list is long and what that could look like with the current changes. republicans, who could stand in the way of the health care situation in the senate? forget about the democrats right now. remember ted cruz, rand paul? you have to totally repeal it.

changes. i want your view on what people should be bracing for or ready for. >> well, there's going to be winners and losers. let's make it clear at the start. this is assuming that the house bill becomes the law. it won't become the law as you just reported. there will be changes in the senate. assuming what was passed by the house yesterday became the law, there would be winners and losers. young healthy people would be better off. their premiums would go down. older people, their premiums would go up. people with pre-existing conditions, it's not clear. they would have more to worry about than under obamacare, whether it was a flat regulation, you could not charge people with pre-existing conditions any more than people that did have the conditions. >> harris: i asked our team here to get a list. this will vary by state. lupus, alcohol abuse, alzheimer's, arthritis.

the list is long in pre-existing conditions and could vary by states for the reasons that you spoke of. a last word on that and then we'll move on. >> a lot we don't know in this in the house bill because of the fact that some states would decide to live by the federal mandates that will continue to ban any discrimination against people with pre-existing conditions. but there's state waivers. if states can justified to the federal government, they can drop out of a lot of these things, pre-existing conditions, essential health benefits. there's this insurance mandate under obamacare that everything from mental health to maternity care, all have to be covered in every insurance policy. if states decide to take the waiver, they can say we'll take this part of the essential benefits and drop them. and an insurance company in oklahoma can say we're not going to live by the essential benefits in oklahoma. we're going to take the

essential benefits in arizona. so it really is going to be a very different and much more checkered playing field than what you have under obamacare. >> harris: sure. then you have the players like rand paul, the senators, ted cruz that said you have to repeal it all and start over. you have mayor key people that we need to watch. you have lisa murkowski of alaska that doesn't like the medicaid point. let's talk about the six or seven senators to keep our eye on and what we're watching for. >> on the one hand, you have the hardliners. rand paul, ted cruz, mike lee. they were quiet yesterday. they didn't say it doesn't go far enough. in the past they have said they don't want government regulation of healthcare. even with this bill, with all the changes, repeal and replace, a lot of government regulation of healthcare. so it will be interesting to see how far they're willing to go or are they going to push for more.

on the other hand, you have more moderate people, like lisa murkowski of alaska. >> harris: susan collins. she's another one. >> yeah. particularly in states that agreed to the medicaid expansion, which meant that people that previously haven't been covered by medicaid now were because they were above an income level. they're worried medicaid expansion will be rolled back if the house bill becomes law and they have hundreds of thousands of constituents in their states that have healthcare coverage under obamacare that would lose it with the roll back of medicaid expansion. they're not going to want to see that happen. that really gets tough. that is one of the things that absolutely had to happen in the house. remember, whatever the senate comes back with and dramatically different than the house, then they have to find a way to reconcile in a conference committee the senate version and the house version. as we saw the house version, which is more conservative than

the senate version, it passed with one vote. anything to change the bill changes the balance of power in the house. >> harris: so those are potentially republicans on the bubble. what about democrats? anybody that could be pulled over? >> there's some that are talking about it. john tesser of montana, some of the conservative democrats, particularly those that are facing re-election in states that donald trump won facing re-election in 2018 in the mid-terms. i have to tell you, there's not been a democrat so far that has gone with this. yes, i understand that it's hard to oppose president trump in a state that he carried if you're a democrat. on the other hand, it's hard to go something called obamacare repeal and replace if you're a democrat. you'll lose a lot of your own voters in your state. >> harris: while you were talking, president trump tweeted this out. of course the australians have better healthcare than we do.

everybody does. obamacare is date but healthcare will soon be great. this has just gone out. we've been keeping up with him, as we all do. especially on a friday afternoon after his deputy press secretary has spoken to the media. we get new information. i want the get your response to that before i let you go. >> yeah, well, what this is about is that yesterday in his meeting with the australian prime minister, the president said well, i have to admit you have better health insurance now than we do. he went on to say but ours will get better after this repeal and replace. the key there, this is what people like bernie sanders noted, the australian plan is single payer like in britain and canada. while the president and his people are saying, he was being polite to the prime minister, they're saying, well, yeah, single player government-run healthcare is better than any system than we'll have under obamacare repeal and replace.

>> harris: democrats are saying, wait, did you say single payer? around and around we go. chris wallace, i know what i'm doing. i'm watching you. thank you. chris will have the latest on the healthcare battle on "fox news sunday" with reince priebus. that's sunday on your local fox broadcast station. pentagon officials say iran and north korea may be working together on their weapons programs. one analyst says iran is copying north korea's missile design. i'll speak with jack keane coming up. we'll talk about that. stay with us. when my doctor told me i have age-related macular degeneration, amd, he told me to look at this grid every day. and we came up with a plan to help reduce my risk of progression, including preservision areds 2. my doctor said preservision areds 2 has the exact nutrient formula the national eye institute recommends to help reduce the risk of progression of moderate to advanced amd

are sharing information about their missile programs. earlier this week iran tried and failed to launch a missile under water and failed. it was the first time they tried to do that and said the submarine system was based on a north korean system. let's bring in general jack keane, a fox news military analyst. general, thanks for joining us today. >> glad to be here. >> harris: how concerned are you about these two in particular getting together and is this evidence strong in your point of view? >> oh, yeah. overwhelmingly so. this is a 20-plus year close relationship. the iranians are following the north korean playbook about as close as you can. the north koreans in the 90s negotiated to us, lying about their nuclear intentions. they went back to developing a

nuclear weapon. in 2003, they declared they had it. the iranians saying they're only building nuclear power for energy, not weapons. they had secret sites. what happened in iran, we found them because of informants. they were exposed. they followed the exact playbook. their missiles are exact replicas by and large of north korean missiles. their nuclear technology is north korean technology. they both want to have nuclear weapons to be sure. the iranians have never given up on that. they both want ballistic missile s and fire them from the surface and subsurface. north korean is leading the technology effort on all of that. >> harris: general, the american public has been told to believe there's so many immediate imminent threats. first it was the islamic state

savages. talk about the urgency now and the reporting that we're also witnessing in this era about iran and north korea. >> well, iran, i believe, is a major threat in the middle east. middle more so than radical islamics that are a clear threat. we see the evidence of that all the time. they run around the world killing people. the iranians are a more serious threat. they have conventional military, they have missiles, developing ballistic missiles and they want a nuclear weapon. according to the deal that the previous administration made, they are likely to get nuclear weapons unless this administration puts a stop to it. so yes, that is a major concern for us. the iranians threat in the middle east and the north korean threat in the far east and our bases and our allies also a major threat to us. >> harris: are you confident that president trump gets this? i want to talk with you about the news that he dropped. that is that he's getting ready

to make his first trip as president overseas and he's going to the middle east. the very place you're talking about right now. how does that inform you about the confidence that you may have in this president moving forward? >> first of all, he absolutely gets the danger of both of these threats. all of his national security advisers have been speaking out about the threats. obviously the president put the military option back on the table and is negotiating with the chinese. that's a plus. this trip to the middle east is a big deal. he making a statement that the middle east is a priority for me. he's going to make a statement that i have israel's back and i have the sunni arab's back in the middle east and we're going to stand up against radical islam and counter the iranians. that is not the position of the previous administration. that is going to be so well-received by our allies. the israelis doubted the previous administration's commitment. the sunnis were convinced that

the united states had moved away from their previous security commitment. >> what about the president's authorization of this military to do what it needs to do? i have to let you go quickly but not without asking you about that. what is difference between now and what we previously had? >> it's about trust in confidence in our commanders to do things within their conflict area, let them make the decisions. they don't have to ask permissions. they have the resources and capabilities and great troops. leave them alone. judge them by their results. couldn't be better. >> harris: general jack keane, thanks for joining us with your expertise. >> good talking to you. >> a u.s. navy seal was killed in a fierce gun bat until somalia. this comes after a time when u.s. forces are in harm's way all over the middle east. president trump is encouraging more aggressive military action in the region and we just reported he's going there. he wants to wipe out terrorist

organizations. our political panel all talk military now. we'll weigh-in on the possibilities, the benefits, the danger of the president's strategy. stay with us. i use what's already inside me to reach my goals. so i liked when my doctor told me that i may reach my blood sugar and a1c goals by activating what's within me with once-weekly trulicity. trulicity is not insulin. it helps activate my body to do what it's supposed to do release its own insulin. trulicity responds when my blood sugar rises. i take it once a week, and it works 24/7. it comes in an easy-to-use pen.

and i may even lose a little weight. trulicity is a once-weekly injectable prescription medicine to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. trulicity is not insulin. it should not be the first medicine to treat diabetes, or for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. do not take trulicity if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid cancer, if you've had multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to trulicity. stop trulicity and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms such as itching, rash, or trouble breathing; a lump or swelling in your neck; or severe pain in your stomach area. serious side effects may include pancreatitis, which can be fatal. taking trulicity with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases your risk for low blood sugar. common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, decreased appetite, and indigestion. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may make existing kidney problems worse. with trulicity, i click to activate what's within me.

if you want help improving your a1c and blood sugar numbers with a non-insulin option, click to activate your within. ask your doctor about once-weekly trulicity. >> i'm lea gabrielle with a fox report. more of today's headlines. severe weather slamming parts of the southeast. a possible tornado tore off the roof and walls of an auto parts store in eastern georgia. near greensboro, north carolina, violent storms took down trees and powerlines. thousands lost electricity and some schools are closed today. firefighters rescuing two hikers from a hillside. rescuers planning to release them to their parents. no word on how long they were stuck. one of america's most famous pilots taking flight with the thunder birds. captain sully sullenberger joined the team to promote and

u.s. commanders say they got the authority to launch yesterday's operation during the obama administration. an interesting note as well. leland vittert is live at the pentagon. >> clearly something went very wrong during this overnight raid. the pentagon is not sure what it was. they were targeting a compound that al shabaab used to launch attacks against americans and other targets inside africa in general. reuters is reporting that the real target was a leader that played a key role in an attack on a local university in kenya that had 150 dead. most of the dead christians. a $5 million bounty on his head. the seals were advising soldiers and flew in by helicopter 40 miles east of the capitol. early during this assault, down

on the coast is when they took heavy fire and the american died. >> we first and foremost want to express our deepest condolences and deepest appreciation for all of the men and women in the military. >> now, the pentagon says they still don't know if the mission was a success in terms of kill and capture for the al shabaab leader that they were looking for. we have a lot of history in somalia. this is the first american combat death in somalia since 1993. >> leland, thank you. the political panel is here. sarah linty, from the national security council under condoleezza rice. and david defury, a former state department official. good to have you both. sarah, this is interesting because what happened yesterday

was actually kind of a leftover in terms of authorization from the obama administration. but definitely what happens going forward, president trump is taking a very different path in places like somalia. >> he is. he turned military operations over to the pentagon, to be left to their discretion. in my humble opinion, this is a good thing. when it comes to difficult tactical operations, i think decisions are best made in the hands of military professionals like secretary defense mattis. it's a pivot. >> harris: what is interesting, david, president obama, formerly, was often criticized for not being clear about what his brand of foreign policy was with regard to some of these nations and certainly fighting isis and others in that part of the world. we heard him spill out words like j.v. team. i don't want to go far down that road, but i want your idea on

how much more on point do you think that this current president is and your opinion on that. >> look, this change in approach may be a welcome one. i traveled to iraq frequently. special forces that we have there that are fighting isis in iraq often chased about the rules of engagement with a cagey opponent like isis that makes all sorts of changes in strategy. it's good for the war fighters on the ground to have discretion about how they will fight back against isis and how they're going to defeat isis. that's a positive. i agree that president obama was slow to create a plan for fighting isis, but actually in the last year of his administration and certainly towards the end of his administration, he was doing a very good job of fighting isis. he planned the campaign to liberate mosul. that's going well. we're pretty close to pushing isis out of iraq. they remain in two cities other than mosul. we will be successful there.

so let's continue that plan. the loosening of rules of engagement can be a positive. it's important to have some restrictions on the military to make sure we don't have is a civilian deaths. if we lose the war of ideology, we will lose the war against isis. >> harris: so there was a lot in what you just said that was critical and in defense of the former president. let's toss up the current president's words about what you call a loosening and what others see a broadening in terms of how much he's listening to our generals. this is what -- >> the greatest military in the world and their done their job as usual. they have total authorization. that's what they're doing. that's why they've been so successful lately. if you look at what has happened over the last eight weeks in compare that to what has happened the last eight years, you'll see there's a tremendous difference. >> harris: i love shep.

they let the president say it instead of me, which is good. let's talk about that authorization now that is different. i want to go back to you, sarah. president obama was criticized for not listening to hisnerals. is president trump doing that? >> well, i want to go back to 2013 when there was a chemical weapons attack in syria and president obama's team did not act. they dithered. what we saw a month ago in syria was the president making a decision, turning it over to the military that affected effectively, efficiently and got out. it was a stellar example of what i think we're going to see. more of what we'll see under this administration. so i think we saw i play out a month ago and we'll so i it heretofore. >> harris: that flies in the face of what you said, david, this could save lives in terms of military and civilians, we would hope, too, because it's

more pinpoint. get in, get out. your thoughts. >> one of the biggest mistakes of president obama was not acting in syria in 2013. i agree. president trump was right to do the missile strikes that he did a month ago. but it's still confusing what the president plan is for syria. it's confusing as to whether his policy is for assad to step down or not. it should be that as sad should step down. we should be using force in syria. you know, we're supposedly sending more troops to syria, taking the fight to the assad regime and to isis. let's see how this goes. so far the president has waffled a little bit on syria. >> harris: it is interesting as we look at the situation with north korea and around the world and people think this president is serious about using firepower. that's one thing that syria did prove that he will do it. thanks very much. we'll have you back another day. thanks for your time. north korean officials, speaking of which, accusing the cia of

plotting with south korean intelligence to assassinate kim jong-un with some sort of biochemical weapon. according to a state from the north's ministry of state, agents bribed a north korean and turned him into a terrorist of revenge against the supreme leadership of the people's democratic leader of north korea. this comes after mike pompeo visited the capitol. and as tensions rise. greg palkot is live with more. greg? >> hi, harris. it's far-fetched. but if it had happened, we would have had a front row seat. kim jong-un, the leader of north korea, was supposed to have been targeted at a military parade last month, which we attended. according to the story, the cia and the south korean counterpart said to turn a man over, pay him

off and gear him up and arm him with a dirty bomb containing radioactive material and then kill the leader of this very public event. we speak with a spokesperson for the cia. they declined to comment on the report. we spoke to an expert. he said it's all propaganda. we can tell you security was pretty tight at that event. it's not completely outlandish. we have seen reports of u.s. military exercises that they call the decaptation of the regime. that is practicing to go to pyongyang and do something like this. also, the experts say that probably the best way for the regime to fall might be an internal coup, probably while kim jong-un is perhaps so ruthless and a little bit paranoid. back to you, harris. >> harris: thanks, greg. the notorious drug lord el chapo is complaining about hallucinations and the exercise

>> it could be a year before notorious drug lord joaquin el chapo guzman gets his day in court. today he went before a fell -- federal judge in brooklyn. his attorneys are complaining about his living conditions. they say the drug lord is hallucinating, hearing music while in solitary confinement. the other complaints, the jail's exercise bike faces away from the tv and he's not allowed to see his wife. federal officials say the restrictions are necessary because he escaped prison twice in mexico. one time there an underground tunnel. trace gallagher is live with more.

it's hard to pity anybody who has done what he's done allegedly, trace. >> and harris, you mentioned that he never sees his wife. today his wife was in court and our producener the courtroom said he spent a lot of time looking at her. he wore head phones during the hearing to hear the translation and the first order was business is to make sure that he was aware of a potential conflict of interest. turns out his current lawyers work in the same building with attorneys that represented witnesses that may testify against him. el chapo told the judge that he was happy with his current legal time. his lawyers did complain when they visited him in a federal jail, they have to stay behind thick plexiglass. that makes it hard for them to go over documents with him. experts say for safety purposes, it's unlikely that they will be allowed in the same cell. for now, el chapo spends 23 hours a day in a windowless cell, an hour in an exercise cell and he's not happy with the

placements of the television. he says the air conditioning is erratic and he seas the guards don't speak spanish. amnesty has said his jail conditions are cruel and degrading. critics have pointed out he's escaped twice and believed to have brutally killed dozens of people. >> harris: exactly. trace gallagher, thanks very much. president trump is spending the week at his summer white house in new jersey. he arrived last night in bed minister about an hour west of manhattan. hosting the leader of the free world is not easy. the town has 15 police officers. they say they're making it work and we'll see how things are being adjusted and how he's adjusted. you do all this research on a perfect car, then smash it into a tree. your insurance company raises your rates... maybe you should've done more research on them. for drivers with accident forgiveness,

population under 9,000 has a police force of 16 officers which is including police chief. as the mayor told us, an average weekend of the presidential visit will cost the township about $42,000. >> that may not sound like much if you're in new york city or florida for those costs, but for a town like bedminster, each visit is 1/2% of our budget. not police budget or overtime budget but total town budget. >> okay. so this sleepy rural community will be getting some relief. president trump signed a budget bill today that will target $61 million to reimburse local law enforcement to protect the president whether his in palm beach, new york or bedminster. while not every resident is happy about the high profile neighbor, one says it's great. one local deli owner says he's ready to name a hero after the commander-in-chief. >> let him come in. he can order a sandwich and it

will be named after him. >> so what he orders, it will be named after him? >> that's the way this started back in 82. >> so we could have a president trump sandwich? >> absolutely. yes. >> hasn't happened yesterdt. we'll let you know. >> harris: have a great weekend. back after this. natural cheese on one side, and sweetness on the other. new sargento sweet balanced breaks, find it in our cheese section. we asked people to write down the things they love to do most on these balloons. travel with my daughter. roller derby.
