r zhaleimer's disease, yes, in my lifetime, i will make sure. video just coming in. president trump at arlington national cemetery, minutes ago. this was right after his speech for memorial day. he went to section 60. that's the burial ground for military personnel killed in the global war on terrorism since 2001. visiting some of the families there. we'll listen to what he said to those families at the white house pool photographer picked up in just a minute. the second hour of "happening now," i'm lee lald vitters. >> i'm molly lined. the president took a detour to visit the gravesite of homeland secretary john kelly's son,

robert, who was killed in afghanistan. will ha . >> leland: we'll turn up the volume as this time comes on. >> will not be forgotten. >> he's looking down, he's very proud. >> thank you for everything you're doing for the country. >> this ear looking down on us. >> jimmy knew he wasn't coming home. >> he knew it? >> he just, he says, mama, i hope that people don't forget that i ever lived. if you could remember, just jimmy, that would mean so much to me. >> president trump: i'll remember. >> i us a with a marine, mother of a marine, it would mean so much to me. >> president trump: we will do it. you take care of your seven. he's looking down, very happy. >> can i have a picture? >> oh my god! thank you so much. >> president trump: yes. >> jimmy. thank you. thank you. thank you so much.

>> president trump: okay? take care of yourself. thank you, folks. >> thank you, sir. >> what a powerful scene to see the president and vice president visiting the families of the fallen. look at that picture. incredible to be able to really kind of stand along and see that video playing out. you can see the heartbreak of those families of the president in his speech spoke about the loved ones and that the fallen have a special place in heaven and that those loved ones are with god. he spoke about how they're looking down on all of us today. here we are getting a chance to see his interaction and the vice president's interaction with these families. that have sacrificed so much. >> leland: we want to give you insight on who this young man is.

he is christian jacobs. he's son of christopher james jacobs, united states marine corps. for the past couple of years, on memorial day, this young man has come in what was a replica of his father's uniform. to arlington to be there with his dad on memorial day. there are touching pictures of him when he was four years old, quoted as saying i hope for you to come back soon, daddy. i love you and hope for you to be here. this was at his father's grave when he was 4. we don't know what was said there, only the still photographers that travel with the president were able to pick this up. but there is some comfort in the thanks of a grateful nation for all of these gold star families. you got the sense, as we listened to president trump earlier, molly, that he felt that emotion. the stop at section 60 was originally scheduled to go visit the family -- the grave of some one president trump talked about in his speech, which is the son

of secretary of homeland security general john kelly, who died in afghanistan. secretary kell has always been poignant, he doesn't want this to be about his son, never wants this to be made about him. and the president went and spent time there and spent time with the families. on memorial day you have those huge ceremonies, if you will, that we saw the president attend. and i don't know if we can rerack this video from the president being there. but also, you have not only these huge ceremonies, families who all come, they didn't know the president was going to be there, simply to spend time with their loved one ofs. we all spend time with our loved ones on memorial day, they spend their time at arlington. >> this speaks to the sacrifice of the fallen soldiers who go where they're sent, knowing they may not return. to the families, left behind, these young children, grieving gold star mothers, to see this

interaction and to know that, as you mention, they didn't know the president was going to be there, they were going for a private moment with their loved one who has been lost. it really speaks to the sacrifice and the gratitude of this nation when we see these families, all that they have lost. here they are, in arlington memorial cemetery, taking a few moments to interact with the nation's leaders when they would love to be interacting with their own loved ones. >> leland: the president earlier today spoke at arlington, just before visiting section 60 here. of course laying the traditione unknown. >> president trump: to every gold star family who honors us with your presence, you lost sons and daughters, husbands and wives, mothers and fathers. they each had their own names, their own stories, their own beautiful dreams. but they were all angels sent to us by god.

and they all share one title in common, and that is the title of hero. >> the president finishing his speaking. we're go to move, now, to the vietnam veterans memorial a number of ceremonies, this one at the national mall where ceremony is about to begin to honor those who served. garrett penny is live at the vietnam veterans memorial. gareth? >> they're doing the prayer right now for the opening observance. we're going to take a moment to wait until they complete that and then talk to you in a minute. >> we'll let you hang there as the prayer out of respect and allow that to continue on during the ben diction. this is what we've seen throughout the ceremonies today at arlington national ceremony, time of the unknown, ben dictions, solemnful moments where "taps" is played.

>> leland: john mccarmack, we look at the other ceremonies going around, senior writer for the "weekly standard". what struck me in that very sacred moment that we listen in to, gold star mother, talking about her son, with the now commander in chief. she said thank you for all you are doing for us. there seems to be a sense among the military, now, that they are newly empowered among families of the military, newly appreciated. >> yeah, i personally had a chance to interview many military families, that's what he said she said there, is an important day to remember all of the fallen, all who fought, to defend this country. given us freedom of speech, freedom of press, all of the other freedoms we have today. >> leland: struck by what the president said, as well as he got extraordinarily personal about this. every day, we have to prove worthy of their sacrifice.

and also talked about the sacrifice, the families of made. proved worthy of that. the president here at the time of the unknown earlier as he laid a wreath at the time of the unknown. john, take-aways for you from the president's sfeech. >> yeah, i think it was a powerful moment as you just mentioned, that it's sort of a calling for us to rededicate ourselves to their cause, the cause of the fallen. as lincoln so eloquently put it. that was the take-away, a nice moment, a nice speech, i think he handled himself well. >> leland: the implicit promise between a country and its service members, between the president, the commander in chief, and his troops 245is when we send you off to war it has a purpose. one of the people that the president talked about in his speech was a young man who went off and died in afghanistan, and spoke about his wife there in the awedens earlier. the president invited. earlier -- in the audience

earlier. this is what his wife had to say to the president earlier today. we're still waiting for that sound bite, we'll see if it comes. it was, just so you know, jane horton who is the husband of chris horton, who was killed in afghanistan. we'll get that sound bite when we have it. meantime -- here it is. >> we have service members that have volunteered to fight and die for us. it's important to pay attention to what we're signing over, the blank check to their lives, and what wars they're fighting and what the strategy is. we owe them and owe the service members on the ground a real clear strategy to win. >> leland: she went on to say honoring the fallen means having a strategy for afghanistan. as this new administration is coming together, do you get the feeling that the gravity of what they're having to deal with and the decisions they are having to make weighs on them?

or have they got gotten to that point yet? >> i think it certainly does. i think that the president showed a great deal of seriousness with the national security team he's finally put into place, with secretary mattis and others, general mcmaster. two men who have actually taken the fights to al qaeda in iraq, who know what is at stake. secretary mattis expressed hope that they're shifting tactics, more of a strategy to annihilate isis. it's a tall order, tough problem, but there is a great deal of seriousness. >> leland: secretary mattis in an interview earlier with cbs, he was asked what keeps him up at night. he replied, nothing, i keep other people up at night. but that subjection of u.s. force, something different than what president trump campaigned on when he said i want to get out of america being the world's policeman for lack of a better

paraphrase. >> do i think the president hasn't shown much of a clear ideology. he can be persuaded on a given issue. we saw that with the missile strike against syria that was exactly the kind of thing he would have opposed as a candidate. but seems to have been persuaded by his national security team, which was in full agreement that, that was a proper response, limited response, in response to assad's use of chemical weapons. >> leland: john mccar mick on duty, on memorial day, present your insights as well. thank you, sir. >> thank you. >> leland: molly? >> we want to return, now, we joining gareth kenny, live at the vietnam veterans memorial in washington. >> they just finished up with the opening prayer, paying respect to those who have given their lives, ultimate sacrifice for our country. we did not want to dishonor in a respect by reporting during the middle of that. today, though, this ceremony is about two things. honoring those individuals, as

well as honoring those whose times names have been added to the wall. three more names were added after the department of defense determined that those men died after being evacuated from combat, were then eligible to be added to the wall. there are now 58,318 names on the wall. the group that helped found the wall is concerned as time goes by that those individuals, their memories, will be forgotten. the concern is for the younger generation. and that is why they're now working to put a face with every name on the wall. >> by collecting the photos and adding the photos, you really get a sense for more of who the people are that are listed on the wall. for the families, i think, it is very meaningful for them to see that their loved ones will forever be remembered. it's not just a name. you will be able to actually learn information about that person.

>> molly, they have just started the national anthem here. we're going to cut away for a moment to take that in as well. ♪ oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave. ♪ oer the land of the free. and the home of the brave ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> the vietnam veterans memorial fund has now collected pictures for almost all of the names on the wall. there's still more than 6,000 missing. they're asking for the public's help to be able to find and identify those individuals. put a face with those names. jim knocksy tells me those are the veterans from new york, california, texas, and

pennsylvania they need the most. go to vvms.org to submit a photo or do a search to see what names are still missing from this virtual wall of faces to honor those. molly? >> just a tremendous reporting on this memorial day, incredible to think there are still names being added to that wall so many decades later. thank you. >> leland: as garrett pointed out, putting faces to the names, section 60 where president trump visited earlier. there are now a lot of faces on those graves, mementos being left. it harkens back to how memorial day began right after the civil war, the wives of soldiers who would come and decorate the graves on decoration day to be with their husbands. now we're sort of returning to that very same tradition to show their sacrifice, whether it be with the children's drawing or picture of the fallen. >> decorating of graves happens across america.

some of the things, children are introduced to memorial day, to place flags on graves. >> leland: now a movement to have a flower on every grave around the country. we will be right back.

county jail four hours later and released at about 11:00a.m. about eight hours after he was stopped. according to the website tmz he was at the wheel of a 2015 mercedes, driven away from the arrest scene by one of his associates. tiger woods released on his own recognizance any sants, charged with driving under the influence. he last played professional golf in february but had to withdraw because of back pain. he's an made three starts in two years. latest acement at comeback. this arrest is the latest in a string of tabloid headlines. when he had a car accident in 2009 outside his news started it. multiple reports surfaced of extra marital affairs and woods entered rehab. it isn't known what prompted this arrest or anyone else was involved. but comes days after woods posted a long and emotional update on his website in which he says he's feeling the best he has in years after undergoing his fourth surgery to treat his back.

tiger says he wants to play professional golf again but adds, quote, i'm not looking ahead, right now he says, my soul focus is rehab and doing what the doctors tell me. i'm concentrating on short term goals. leland, he may be, pain-free, but with the dui his troubles are far from over. >> leland: the legal issues certainly just beginning there. claudia cowan, thank you. more on this story as it develops. certainly today and then into this week. molly? >> molly: lawmakers are about to return from a week long recess with a battle in the works over president trump's budget. so is the white house and capitol hill prepare to lock horns, what can the budget mean for everyday americans. fresh analysis ahead. you don't let anything

>> molly: the white house and congress preparing to battle over the budget and tax reform. president trump tweeting earlier today, the massive tax cuts that i have submitted is moving along in the process very well. actually ahead of schedule. big benefits to call. as the debate plays out this op-ed got our attention in the "washington post," titled trump's budget is a ceo's budget. that's a good thing. it was written by gene marks, cpa, small business advocate and contributor to the "washington post." joining me now. thanks for being here. >> thank for being here, 457y memorial day. m. >> molly: what do you think when you look at this budget, you think it could be a good thing? >> with all -- in the week it was released there's all this yelling and screaming. but going back and forth on the media, meanwhile, my clients, me readers, i speak to small and medium sized businesses, larger companies as well, they're

smiling, the people that run these companies. nobody ibs happy, doing a social dance that there are cuts in education, social organizations. nobody likes that. but for the first time we have a president, this is what i hear from my clients, we have a president that is a business guy, he's in the white house, this is his first budget. this is the kind of budget that a ceo would prepare. >> molly: congress yet to get their hands on it, house and senate. look agent this, so many businesses are excited about the possibility of tax reform. we see that, maybe we'll see it this summer. now may not happen until next year. where does that stand and what could it mean for the small businesses watching? >> i wrote a lot about this for the "washington post" as well. i'm not a believer we will have sweeping tax reform, there are too many differences, both in the house and senate. there are certain key parts of tax reform will that we are going to see this year. the biggest one, is the one

thatmation business owners' eyes light up, redpux in the corporate -- reduction in the corporate tax. the u.s. corporate tax rate of 35% is among the highest in the world. president trump is proposing to reduce it to 15%, paul ryan more like 0%. but the big deal, molly, for people like me running a business, we potentially have a reduction in pass-through taxes f i file an s corporation return, all of the income comes on my individual tax return. now those rates might go down, to as little as 15 or 0%. if you are a small business owner, or running a company, are you going to be seeing corporate tax relief this year. >> molly: one of the things that caught a lot of attention, may be where the president's daughter, ivanka trump, makes her mark is paid family leave. that is a challenge for businesses, american women across the country, caring for the baby. what does it mean? >> i'll share the paid time leave policies, you may want to leave fox news and join some of

these companies. netflix offers -- >> >> molly: i will think i'll stick around. >> a year's paid time-out for new parents, either spouse. linked-in offers unlimited paid time off. it is an area, 50%, just about 50% of employees are part of the my lennial generation, 18 to 34. >> molly: that is driving this? >> yes, they make up half of the workforce. paid time-out is a huge, huge thing. a lot of companies are doing that and a lot of small businesses, we have to respond. for the government to offer, i think they're proposing, ivanka's plan is six weeks paid time-out in addition to the 12 weeks unpaid leave, funded through unemployment insurance, would be a big help to a lot of small businesses. whether or not paul ryan and mitch mcconnell like that, really does have a big impact on the entitlement state, that still remeans to be seen. >> molly: we'll see what congress does. thanks for joining us. >> thank you. >> leland: on memorial day

>> molly: president trump performing one of the most so leem duties as commander in chief laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier at arlington national cemetery, america honors our fallen heros. the president speaking at arlington on behalf of a grateful nation. >> president trump: general douglas mcarthur once said that the soldier who is called upon to offer and give his life for his country is the noblest development of mankind. we pay tribute to those brave souls who raced into gunfire, roared into battle, and ran into hell to face down evil. they made their sacrifice not for fame, or for money, or even

for glory but for country. >> molly: vice president mike pence kicking off the annual project hero memorial day bike ride paying tribute to those who wore the uniform and keeping us safe. kristin fisher is live at the white house with that. >> president trump is back at the white house after that trip, to arlington national cemetery. publicly, the focus is as it should be, all about honoring our men and women who lost their lives defending this country. but behind the scenes, the controversy surrounding president trump's son-in-law is really sucking a loft oxygen at the white house. president trump is defending jared kushner against the allegations, that he allegedly tried to set up a secret backchannel to communicate with the kremlin during the transition. president trump telling the "new york times" last night that, quote, i have total confidence in him. he is respected by virtually everyone and working on programs that will save our country billions of dollars n addition

to that and perhaps more importantly, he's a very good person. well, yesterday homeland security secretary john kelly also defended kushner across the sunday shows, and he argued that setting up a secret backchannel with russia is normal and acceptable. >> i think any channel of communication back or otherwise with a country like russia is a good thing. multiple ways to communicate back and forth is a good thing with any country, i think, particularly a country that is like russia. >> molly: secretary kelly didn't explicitly confirm these presidents are, but he didn't deny them either. now, congressman adam schiff, top democrat, is calling for kushner's security clearance to be reviewed. >> if these reports are accurate right after that campaign, after that intervention to have the president's son-in-law, a key player within the trump organization, trying to establish a backchannel with the

russians through a russian sdip lowmatic facility, you have to ask -- diplomatic facilities who are they hiding the conversation from? >> molly: true or not all of this controversy is really crowding the president's agenda. over the last 24 hours retweeted about healthcare reform, tax reform, what he views as a successful first foreign trip. but one of the very first people spotted here at the white house after his return was mark kasewich, president trumped private attorney who has been hired to represent him in the russia probe. >> molly: kristin fisher with the many challenges for the president. thank you. >> leland: new reports say there could be a major shakeup in the works at the white house. along the lines of what kristin was talking about. mr. trump purportedly less than thrilled about the investigations into the alleged russian connections of the campaign. joining us is the pro chair for the trump great america pac and

scott bolden. nice to see you gentlemen as always. >> good afternoon. >> leland: does the president have a reason to be less be than pleased, shall we say, with his staff? >> sure, thank you, to all those who served our country first and foremost. here's what i say about putting together a political staff. the great harold rollins did that, you want to separate the legislative processes and achievements and let them shape that to the u.s. public. you need a political team, this is a president like ronald reagan, ran against the status quo. that includes elements of the mainstream media, elements of the deep state, and really out to not just get on, but set forth their own agenda and narrative. you need a political team to help manipulate that better. this is a good thing separating the two components. >> leland: stot, is this the

fight the president should be focusing on, or repeal and replace, get the tax reform bill through? or does he need to pick the fights eric talks about? >> i think, i don't think he needs to be picking the fights at all, actually, he's his own worst enemy. if he could focus on those policies, and he gets a war room and gets another team in to deal with the russian -- russia investigation, and he can focus on his policy with a republican congress and republican senate, he will be well served. the challenge is, can you keep him on message, can you stop him from tweeting, and instead of fighting what he believes to be fake news or witch hunt, because the intelligence agencies and d.o.j. certainly don't think so. the senate intelligence committee don't think so. cooperate with them, put his people out there, if he has nothing toside hide. if he has concerns, get lawyered up, stop talking about it being

fake news. talk about his policy, it has mid terms in 2018 coming up. the republicans don't want to lose that. >> leland: eric, dear friend of mine, a long-time and very respected republican strategist, as soon as he heard the term "war room" which is one that senior administration officials are putting out, he goes, why? why make it this fight? why continue to sort of play by the common rules and keep going back to squabbling over terminology rather than do it quietly, and focus on policy? why? does the president need this fight, do you think? >> i think he enjoys the fight. donald trump ran a campaign like he is gorning, which is -- gorning, he is n. more in tune with the american people than he believes the mainstream media is. there have been achievements from donald trump and this administration domestically and abroad. they're not being promoted in the right way, the narrative that comes out of other elements, whether it be the

media, democrats -- >> leland: i don't think it's the media's job to promote the president's achievements. >> no, but they do have a narrative and they have an agenda, sometimes, they do try to promote. he needs -- he's dealing with that all the time. you take this latest issue with jared curveballer in, you have obama who sent an emissary to iran before he was elected. there's hypocrisy about how donald trump is operating, never before. he is being mistreated. he needs a war room to set the agenda right. >> leland: you need a war room or call it one or two different things. we'll peck up on what eric was saying, scott. the harvard study said a vast majority of attention that president trump gets from the mainstream media is negative. does he have a point? there have been other back channels, kennedy-kruschev back channel, run by bobby kennedy, family member.

you don't see bobby kennedy accused of tree son. >> kennedy and barack obama were elected presidents. what the government is looking at, mueller will be looking at committees looking at, donald trump, kushner and others, michael flynn, were attempting to do this back chapel before they were in office. after they won the general election, that's a big and huge difference. so, we have to be careful with that type of comparative. if the media is pointing out negative stories about donald trump, remember, donald trump is a unique politician. he drives every narrative that the media covers. notwithstanding the likes, the likes are going to continue. every administration has had likes. donald trump drives the narrative. he should drive the narrative towards his policy, and his agen agenda. in this fight, against the institutions that he's a leader of, d.o.j., nsa and others,

that's what the media is going to talk about. that's why they're not talking about tax reform and healthcare reform. >> leland: it's worth making con point before i turn the floor over to eric, who ronald reagan before he was elected had a back channel to iran about the hostages in paris, before the election. what does the president need to do? he's not going to change the media, the media isn't going to change, it appears in terms of the way the harvard study has pointed things out. what does he do? how does he win a fight that so far he's been losing at? >> sure. look, i think -- i disagree with many, even in my own party, i think he takes to twitter but try to control it better. he's speaking to 100 million people. try to promote his successes. i need on correct the record on what stoty said, he said they were elected. obama hasn't elected before he sent somebody to iran to do backchannelling. when other administerings do it, it's diplomacy. when donald trump does it, it's different.

back and push on the things that he ran on and promote them. he was in tune with the american people in the election, he's still in tune with them, if you look at the polling numbers, on his messaging. reduced illegal immigration by 70% by talking about it. before even building the wall. he put forth, and the house put forth health repeal and replace. now it's to the senate. push forth the agenda items that you ran on and he will be okay. >> leland: good discussion, gentlemen, appreciate your insights, take care. enjoy the rest of your memorial day. thanks to those who made it all possible, as you say. >> absolutely. >> leland: molly? >> molly: tragedy strikes fleet week, new details in the life of the navy seal who died in a parachuting accident. and a live look at the vietnam veterans memorial where a special memorial day ceremony is under way. i stood outside, assessing the situation.
