will go of the giant red planet's spot. i'm sonda smith. i'll be filling in for maria bartiromo 10:00 a.m. on fox news. here's sean in for shep. >> last stop for president trump on his first foreign trip. world leaders mixing it up on everything from climate change to trade. so they find common ground before president trump heads for home? we'll talk with "fox news sunday" anchor chris wallace. president trump waying in on the big win of the congressional candidate in montana. the president's first comments. we have them since that guy slammed the reporter to the ground. and plus, a new arrest in the frantic man hunt for other terrorists in england. we'll have details of the manchester's bombers phone call moments before the horrible concert blast. that's ahead right now from the

fox news deck this hour. i'm eric shawn in for shepard smith. president trump wrapped up his first round of g-7 meetings in italy. he's be negotiating on terrorism, trade, climate change and more. the president was meeting with heads of state from britain, france, japan and other g-7 countries on the beautiful island of sicily in south italy. he held the talks with nato meetings in brussels. the president tweeting this "just arrived in italy for the g-7 trip. has been very successful. he saved the billions billions of dollars and millions of jobs." the latest leg of the president's first foreign tour. the g-7 used to be the g-8 but they did kick out russia after they invaded crimea in 2014.

john roberts is live in sicily and has the very latest. john, a top white house official speaking about the u.s. financial sanctions against russia. an important point considering the ongoing investigations here at home. >> very important point. particularly since russia is a big deal to the g-7 countries. they talked about it today and will talk tomorrow. yesterday, gary cohn, the president's chief economic adviser raised a few eyebrows when he was looking at russia's sanctions. he said they're not going to do that. but in a briefing that occurred 1 1/2 hours ago, cohen reversed that thinking. >> we're not lowering on sanctions in russia. if anything, we would probably look to get tougher on russia. so the president wants to be continue to keep the sanctions in place.

i think the president made it clear how the russians can have the sanctions lifted and taken away. >> there's no indication yet as to what the timing on this may be, nor, eric, on what would happen if they were to actually increase the sanctions, what would be targeted over and above. >> thanks, john. and theresa may spoke about the leaks. that really upset the british about the manchester terrorist bombing suspect. >> yeah, it upset the british and upset the president as well. he's opinion complaining about this since day 1, the leaks of classified information, transcripts of his conversations with foreign leaders. what happened was, the u.k. was sharing police information, law enforcement information and evidence with counterparts in the united states at the fbi and the new york city police department. that was ending up in the u.s. media before the britts wanted it released. it was the name of the bomber and the photographs that were

published yesterday in "the new york times." u.k. authorities hit the roof. the mayor of manchester said, shut it down. no more information sharing and no more intelligence sharing. yesterday we saw a furious prime minister theresa may and said that she wanted to talk to the president about it. they spoke at a nato dinner. rex tillerson, the secretary of state, made an emergency stop in london to take with boris johnson. it seemed like that wasn't enough to patch things over. listen to what the british minister said a short time ago in italy. >> yes, i did raise the issue of the leaks with president trump. he has made clear that that was unacceptable. the metropolitan police, as i ups it, received assurances from the fbi and now have restarted the process of sharing information with them. >> now, the british authorities are not directly connecting the

prime minister's chat with the president about it. but here's the tick tok, the timetable. they stop sharing the information around intelligence and then theresa may had that one-on-one with the president last night at the nato dinner and shortly after that, the intelligence sharing started again. so i think you can, eric, with pretty -- with a lot of certainty connect the dots there. >> and the president giving them assurances. meanwhile, back here at home, the fight over the president's travel ban. we hear anything back from the supreme court? >> yeah, after the fourth circuit court of appeals upheld the temporary injunction. the u.s. department of justice decided they would take this all the way. jeff sessions, the attorney general announced in a statement saying "this department of justice will continue to protect the people of this country from danger." the department of justice and the president are insisting its

well within the president's purview to decide who comes into this country and who doesn't. and they're not quite sure why the courts keep standing in the way according to their thinking and then there's a lot of people on the other side that say the reason why they're doing that, because the president shouldn't be allowed to do this. this will be battled out in the supreme court of the united states. eric? >> we'll hear more about that when the president returns. have a good trip, too. >> thank you. >> let's bring in chris wallace. we just heard gary cohn say they're looking to gets tougher on the russians. how significant is that? >> we'll have to see what actually happened. clearly, you can't be in a situation when you're meeting with the european allies. it was nato yesterday. now it's the g-7. a lot of the same figures. you can't can you guest that you're going to lessen sanctions at the type that the europeans

are upset about what russia did with regard to taking over crimea, its involvement in the eastern ukraine. so there was a certain amount of cleanup going on on aisle 4. we'll have to see if the president does increase sanctions. if he does, that would be substantial. the president is supposed to meet with putin before another one of these economic summits in july. after all the talk at the beginning of the administration about trying to create and improve relations, if in fact they meet and the president has increased sanctions, not pulled them back, that will be an interesting meeting in july. >> you talked about the russian threat. when he was in nato. they have know accepted montenegro. you think the president got an earful on some of this? what do you think they told him? >> well, i don't know. we're just guessing. i would think that they made their positions pretty clear. you know, he's met with angela

merkel, british prime minister theresa may and the french president, macron. russia is in their back yard. they see it as a really clear and present threat to them. i suspect they're concerned about the possibility that the president might, you know, to some degree lower his guard with regard to russia. there were the talks yesterday and i may be overblown about article 5. article 5 of the nato agreement says an attack on one nation is an attack on all. it's a collective defense alliance i the president did not say that, although he participated in a ceremony commemorating the only time that article 5 was invoked, which is when nato came to our assistance in the war of afghanistan. they take it seriously, particularly in the baltic stakes, the concern that putin might continue his advances in latvia and lithuania.

they don't want any suggestion of weakness, any divisions or splits in nato. >> it's like inside base bail. he's add nato. he's very clear on the alliance. 13,000 troops in afghanistan. rex tillerson says the course the u.s. applies to article 5. >> i think it may have been overblown. there was some suggestion before his speech that he was doing to explicitly say i stand by article 5. while he did talk about the threat from the russians and he did talk about article 5 and how that was invoked only once after 9-11, you know, there's some people in europe that for whom that still not enough. they wanted to hear an explicit support endorsement of article 5 by this president. >> yeah, they want to hear that. what about ponying up? canada, italy, germany, with all

of their riches that do not pay the 2% of their gdp for nato. >> that was those interesting moments where i think that the foreign audience and the domestic audience here in the united states were very different. obviously you can tell that a number of the european leaders were uncomfortable when the president in effect scolded them. i don't think that's the only way you can put it. he said we all have a commitment to send 2% of our gdp on defense. there's only five of the 28 countries in ney though that have done that, the u.s. being the leader in that regard. he was lecturing them and saying, you need to pay up. you shouldn't be free riders on the u.s. taxpayer. let me say, if i may, while that didn't play well among the audience of european leaders, my guess is for most american taxpayers, it played great. >> how do you think it went? he pushed the prime minister of montenegro out of the way.

they got the side glances. but most of them met with him personally one-on-one. >> i would talk about the whole trip. it's been a very successful trip. if you said to white house officials that were nervous when the nine days began about how it was going to go -- and i'm talking about trying to form this sunni arab alliance in saudi arabia, the meeting with the israelis, the pope and tough frank talks. sometimes agreeing with him, sometimes not with the nato leaders. they're pretty impressed and happy about how it's gone. it's been very disciplined. you have to point out -- i've never seen this before on a long presidential trip. this president has not held a single news conference. i suspect that was a calculated decision. >> they kept him off of twitter mostly for the whole trip. chris, good to see you. >> there might be some lessons there for what to do in washington. >> if they can do that there, too, we'll see how it goes. chris, good to see you.

i know you'll be working this weekend. chris on "fox news sunday." we'll talk with john kelly about protecting our country from terrorist attacks. also, we'll have the latest on the president's budget and the healthcare battle. man, oh, man. dick durbin, the number 2 democrat in the senate and the louisiana republican, bill cassidy has an alternative to the healthcare plan. check your local fox station and here on sundays on the fox news channel. sadly i'm sorry to say another deadly attack on christians in the middle east. this time children. gunmen opened fire on a bus full of christians that were headed to a monastery. we'll have details ahead here on shepard smith. my name is barbara and i make dog chow natural. now that i work there, i value the food even more.

i feed it to yoshi because there are no artificial colors, preservatives and it's made with real chicken. i'm so proud to make dog chow natural in davenport, iowa. when they thought they should westart saving for retirement.le then we asked some older people when they actually did start saving. this gap between when we should start saving and when we actually do is one of the reasons why too many of us aren't prepared for retirement. just start as early as you can. it's going to pay off in the future. if we all start saving a little more today, we'll all be better prepared tomorrow. prudential. bring your challenges.

with my moderate to severe crohn's disease,... ...i kept looking for ways to manage my symptoms. i thought i was doing okay... then it hit me... ...managing was all i was doing. when i told my doctor,... ...i learned humira is for people who still have symptoms of moderate to severe crohn's disease... ...even after trying other medications. in clinical studies,... the majority of people on humira... saw significant symptom relief... ...and many achieved remission. 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. just managing your symptoms? ask your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, remission is possible. >> sadly, it's been happening with all too much frequency. christians targeted because of their faith. 20 people have been killed including children after gunman opened fire on a bus in egypt. that according to security officials there. they say the group was headed to a monastery about 140 miles south of the capitol, cairo. witnesses say they saw up to ten attackers that they say were dressed in military uniforms and wearing masks.

nobody has claimed responsibility for this horrible attack. the islamic state, as you may know, has taken credit for all the -- many of the other recent attackses on christians, especially after the bombing at the church on palm sunday. connor powell has the very latest on this atrocity. hi, connor. >> hi, eric. this is a caravan of christians, multiple buses according to survivors of the attack or attacks by up to 10 militants using both masks and military-style uniforms stopping the buses, shooting them up along the side of this desert road as they headed south from cairo to this monastery that is a holy site for a lot of christians in that area. they're there visiting part of a pilgrimage, city area. the question that remains is who carries this out. this has all the hall marks of an isis attack.

there were attacks palm sunday, another one in december as well. but isis has remained silent. they have said nothing. it's not unusual for isis in egypt to take a little while for them to get their -- claim responsibility out so it's still very possible that it was in fact isis. that appears to be who egyptian officials are pointing the finger at. a short while ago, egyptian president al sisi says they will attack isis wherever they are, whether it's in egypt, a training camp there or outside of the country. that's a bit of a news development there. so egypt so far has focused on isis internally and now they're say they're able to go outside the country as well, eric. >> thanks, connor. a u.s. service member has died in northern syria. a vehicle rolled over. i'd did it not happen in combat. we don't know the service

member's identity. the pentagon has announced recent operations in iraq and syria have kill three senior islamic state leaders. that according to the u.s. central command. they say the men had extensive experience and training and the deaths make it more difficult, they content, for isis to plan and carry out attacks on civilians. ariana grande plans to go back to manchester after this week's terror attack. and police say the man hunt is continuing for more members of what they're calling a terrorist network in that city. we will have a live report from manchester straight ahead from the news deck.

to his brother on the telephone. that from british forces holding abedi's brother on terrorist ties. he claimed that he's and his brother were members of isis. police in manchester say they have arrested another suspects and searches and raids will continue this weekend. the threat level in britain is at critical. authorities fear the possibility of another attack that could happen at any time. rick leventhal has the very latest. hi, rick. >> hi, eric. childing warnings from the british government's putting major trauma centers on alert and stand by for the possibility of another terror attack this weekend, which is also a holiday weekend here in britain. police far more visible, armed officers patrolling trains for the first time. extra security being added to more security events and more raids being carried out.

at least a dozen on a rented apartment about two miles from the arena where the suspected terrorist, salman abedi is believed to have assembled his backpack. ten people have been taken into custody. assurances of them still being held on suspicion of terrorism. >> it's important that we we continue the stand together here in greater manchester, particularly standing together some of the hate-filled views that we've seen from the community that have no place here in greater manchester. >> the question haunting many is whether police have found everyone they need to find before it's too late. >> that is a vital question this afternoon. meantime, people are trying to cope. what is the latest on the survivors? >> there's a stunning number still recovering in the hospital. 66 being treated in eight area

hospitals. almost two dozen in critical care. many will require extensive reconstructive surgery because of their last wounds. all 22 killed have been publicly identified. ten were teens or young children. the youngest with just eight years old. the memorial continues to grow here in st. anne square. the morning continues here for the people of manchester. >> when you see the faces we just saw, it's a heart breaking reminder of the toll of radical islamic terrorism. rick, live in manchester, thank you. ariana grande says she will return to the city to play a benefit concert to raise money for the victims of the bombing and their families. in a statement she says she will release more details about the show when it's confirmed. ariana says "we will not quit or operate in fear, we won't let this divide us, we won't let

hate win." meanwhile, the lead singer of the british band oasis says he's planning a benefit concert tuesday. he's liam gallagher and will have a concert at the 02. gallagher says he wants to help pick people up. back here at home, have you heard about this? president trump's son-in-law is reportedly under the fbi's microscope over some of the meetings he had with russians. the response from jared kushner's lawyer straight ahead as "shepard smith reporting" continues on this friday afternoon. i was always "the girl with psoriasis." people don't stare anymore. i never joined in. that wasn't fair to any of us. i was covered.

meeting with russian officials. that's the word from his lawyer. nbc news and the post reported that federal investigators are focusing on jared kushner, who is a key white house adviser and ivanka trump's husband. specifically the meetings kushner had in december with the russian ambassador to the united states. the u.s. imposed sanctions after russia innovated crimea. just because the feds are looking into kushner does not he's suspected of any crime. in response to the reports, mr. kushner's lawyers tell fox news this. "mr. kushner volunteered to share with congress about what he knows about the meetings. he will do the same if he is contacted in connection with any other inquiry." catherine herridge is with us live in washington.

hi, catherine. >> hi. a government source says the fbi counter intelligence investigation is looking at conversations with sergei kislyak and the trump transition team. meantime, the democratic national committee has renewed calls for the suspension of kushner's security clearance. a former justice department official with the bush administration said it's highly unlikely to happen. >> he went through the clearance process. i understand that he was not timely disclosing some of the russian contacts. but again, they were disclosed. this has already been reviewed. seems like a political dig at him. >> in the statement to fox news, kushner elawyer indicated that

he's not been contacted by the fbi. that's another indicator that he's being seen as a witness to events rather than a target of the case. >> eric: a witness to events. one of the top republicans says he wants to see the former fbi director's memos. >> jason chaffetz wants the fired fbi director's memos. but he's not ruling out a subpoena. he also wants comey's memos with justice department officials and the notes with the tarmac meeting with bill clinton and loretta lynch. they want to see if the former fbi director i was in on the writing of the documents. the fbi in its response is

saying they cannot provide the records and not surprisingly, they're citing the special investigation hearing. >> eric: thanks, katherine. >> let's bring in our panelist here. we have the national financial director and running for new york city mayor. michael taubman. let's start with you, michael. catherine just reported that jared is seemingly potentially a witness. not a person of interesting not a target. what do you think he saw? >> there's two lenses to view this there. first is a partisan one. something happened somewhere, there was some clumsy collusion to influence the campaign, not the election. nobody have talking about hacking the voting machines but the campaign. a partisan lens.

as an attorney as well, i would say i don't know any of this rises to the level of criminalality. >> but is collusion a partisan thing instead of an attack on our democracy? >> what i understand, information was put out there during the campaign that could have or could have not influenced the voted. ultimately nobody is talking about having switched votes in a machine. so the issue is generally a cover-up or an act. but obstruction of justice, lying to federal investigators. things like that become the thing -- >> eric: you think -- basically every major intelligence official including former cia director the other day said there's no evidence of collusion. >> not only that, jared kushner is not the center of the investigation. if he in fact were a target of the investigation, jared kushner

would have gotten a target letter telling him, informing him that he's the target of the investigation. this is protocol. it's a matter of protocol. >> eric: it's about being in meetings, what he heard, what he said what they wrote? >> right. not only this, there's many corporations that have, you know, a business affiliation with russia. starbucks, mars, ford motor company -- >> none of them are working in the white house. >> but the fact that jared kushner -- this is not a shocker that the family and the trump family have international business ties. >> you talked about sergei horokov. he was reportedly close to putin. they have done business -- his bank helped finance a hotel in toronto. could this come up?

>> this isn't necessarily a democratic party line. i'm sure i'll get angry calls or e-mails about this. all of this is out there for the voters to consider for the november general election in 2016. other issues in central asia -- in this situation, further anecdotal demonstrations that these are all unforced errors. the president should stop tweeting -- >> eric: i'm going to read you something from "the washington post." u.s. examiners are looking at trump's associates and veb. veb has funded politically important projects. a bank spokesman said veb leaders met mr. kushners and other executives as i develops a new strategy for the bank." what wrong with that? it's a business meeting and

happened after the election. others say no, shouldn't be meeting with this guy. >> optics are one thing and facts are another. you know, not too long ago, i think about three weeks ago, you have jared kushner's sister and his whole real estate team that were doing a tour in a foreign country -- i think china maybe -- looking for funding and talking about new opportunities that they had. so you know, like i said -- >> you're saying it's worse than it is. i'm saying it's not a big deal. >> and this is about russia. so i think -- what they're trying to do is they're trying to dirty anyone around trump, anyone involved with trump. the fact that jared kushner is just a person that they're trying to get the information from. he's willing to come. nobody is doing crazy dancing here. >> some say the payments, what about michael flynn not fessing up about some of this stuff? there's other questions.

>> they did this to themselves. unforced errors, all of them. >> thanks, michael and noel. we'll see when happens with mr. kushner and he's questioned. officials say egyptian fighter jets have launched air strikes targeting militant bases in eastern libya. that is in response to the horrible attack against the bus of christians killing 22 people, many children. we reported on that when they opened fire on that bus. sadly, this is one of the latest developments in which christians have been targeted in the middle east for their faith. egypt's president, al sisi has asked the u.s. for help in fighting those militants. we're told that president trump has condemned the attack. the president saying terrorists are engaged in a war against civilization and it's up to all who value life to confront and defeat this evil.

thismer merciless terror tears at our heart hand souls." the president says christian communities must be defended and protected against these type of attacks. the candidate accused of body slamming a reporter is heading to congress. he apologized. is that enough? he originally blamed the reporter. our own correspondent saw that. she will join us live. what it means to american journalists when the officials don't like our questions. liberty mutual stood with us when a fire destroyed everything in our living room.

before he apologized for allegedly body slamming and punching a reporter, ben jacobs, to the floor. it was sad -- just done for asking a few questions. >> eric: arizona republican be investigative reporter was blown up by a bomb in his car in phoenix in 1976 or the first, elisa lovejoy, the first

american journalist killed for practicing her profession. he was killed by a mob in illinois in 1837. today "usa today" saying this about the gianforte incident. >> eric: by the way, gianforte won by 6 points. alicia acuna is with us. she witnessed the attack and joins us from bozeman. hi, alicia. >> hi, eric. a couple of minutes in his victory speech, gianforte told supporters that he made a mistake and apologized for an action he couldn't take back. here's more. >> i'm sorry, mr. ben jacobs. i also want to apologize to the

fox news team that was there. and i'm sorry to each one of you that we had to go through this. that's not the person i am. it's not the way i'll lead in this state. >> gianforte is facing a misdemeanor assault charge for the incident in which his response to a journalist turned violent when he grabbed reporter ben jacobs and threw him on the ground. president trump, while in italy, expre expressed his pleasure with the outcome. >> a great win in montana. >> and eric, according to the sheriff's office, gianforte must appear in court by june 7. eric? >> eric: meanwhile, he's headed to capitol hill. once he's sworn in as a congressman, could he face any

punishment in the house? >> still a big question. the u.s. congress has the power to decide whether or not to seat him. our senior capitol producer, chad pergram said there's no efforts to keep gianforte out and there's not been a legitimate question of seating someone in more than 30 years. he will likely be sworn in after the current recess in early june. paul ryan released a statement in which he said in it "he will bring that experience to congress where he will be a valuable voice in the house republican conference. the executive chairman of the montana democratic party counters saying "gianforte should not be sworn in as a member of the house of representatives while his assault cause is still pending in court." eric, anyone can file a complaint with the office of congressional ethics after he's sworn in. but this is a gray area. this is regarding an incident

that happened before gianforte was elected. eric? >> eric: thanks, alicia. when he was apologizing to fox news, the crew, he meant you as you know and our fellow colleagues. alicia, thank you. straight ahead, the talk about north korea. they developed a missile that they claim can reach the u.s. would we be able to shoot it down? the pentagon is about to find out as a pyongyang dance continues. the very latest on the north korean threat of kim jong-un and what washington can do about it, if anything.

tech: when your windshield trust safelite autoglass.. our exclusive trueseal technology means a strong, reliable bond. at safelite, we stand behind our work... because the ones you love, sit behind it. (parents whisper jingle) safelite repair, safelite replace.

>> eric: for the first time ever, the pentagon is testing their missile testing system to see if they can shoot down an
