written then, tucker is on the mend. join me and mike cohost for "the five" up next. >> some very new disturbing information to report tonight, fox news can confirm that authorities found a list of six names of republican members of congress in a van belonging to james hodgkinson, the man who opened fire at a congressional

baseball game. this news adds to a mountain of as a evidence that he specifically targeted republicans. representative trent franks of arizona was one of the name on n the list. >> there are certainly many indications now that the shooter was premeditated in his actions. i have been notified that, that i might be involved in that investigation. i certainly can't go any further than that. >> can you imagine if you get this information, that your name was on the list, shooting guns at people trying to take as many people down as possible, and you

are one of those targets. >> who were not on the list were the cops that killed him. so we have to be reminded that if they weren't there, everybody would have been killed. we should be acting as though that is the reality. when you look at this perpetrator, he flies in the face of the media, older white man with a gun. he should be a redneck in a red hat saying "make america great again." >> what do you make of this information? is important important to have extra security. but wow, .

>> i don't know if he is a member of the house freedom caucus. i don't know if he was a member. it obviously wasn't random. and this idea that it comes to the baseball field and asks if those are democrats or republicans. one thing about security for these members of congress is very interesting. only the leadership has 24-hour security. imagine trying to provide around-the-clock security. they have asked the federal commission for permission to use some of their campaign funds to supplement the security like at a town hall meeting or just out in the open. i don't think they have said no,

but it seems to me that if it would give the members of congress confidence to be able to go out and do their work, and they would have to make use of campaign funds to do that, i'm sure that other members of congress think that they are on a list out there somewhere. if you don't have a way of protecting yourself, i think it's reasonable. they go i think it's a good idea because it's better safe than sorry. >> it's important to make this accommodation for public officials. >> the interesting and difficult situation here is, take the white house. you can even drive down pennsylvania avenue. the american people are supposed

to be able to go in there and talk to elected officials. there needs to beat changes in terms of meeting space, and underground is where so many meetings take place between constituents. you have meetings between speaker ryan and nancy pelosi about adding investment in security of the capital police. they should be included at some of these town hall meetings. the question is how far do you go with security? because you want to be able to speak to your representatives. >> that's the exact argument that's being made big stomach. >> i think having a list makes

it how partisan of an act this was. this was an assassination attempt, and the guy was a campaign volunteer for bernie sanders. i'm just trying to think of the reaction if it had been the other way. it almost seems like today, the media kind of wants to move on from the story. i was watching a lot of cable news and reading the newspaper, and they are like you know what, we talked about it, and let's move on to russia. i don't think that would happen if it was the other way around. especially on the left. what are we doing out here? are we accessories? these people on social media, if you're not having any boundaries on social media, and doing it

anonymously, it makes it feel acceptable to slander someone or encourage violence against someone because there's really no barriers there. because you have people going around and start pulling triggers, that's the problem. there's no distinguishing reality in real life. >> there is an argument that if you create an outlet for that, then you reduce the reality of it happening on the street. if the internet was around in the 80s or 70s, mark chapman would've been harassing from a faraway. i want to go back to the security question. there was a story today about a tennessee home owner who can't those two inmates who killed the prison guards. he held them with a gun, these

incredibly dangerous murderers. i'm bringing this up in the story to illustrate that guns save lives. those guys were on the run. they were on the run. they murdered two prison guards, a home owner with a gun prevented the deaths of others, the same way the police officers save those lives. so where there is a gun, people's lives are saved. >> i think we should honor that strategy tragedy that took place. i want make as a platform for guns. to me, is the professional with guns who act. >> legal gun owners are

professional. you're saying that they can't handle a gun. every gun owner i know it trains goes to the range. the goal >> you said only profes should have guns. i think that's wrong. >> here's my point, you have a situation where the skies given a gun, and if you look at his background, and if he had a domestic abuse case, and he still gets one. if you talk about the partisanship about this list, there are several democratic candidates said they are not running because they have threats against their lives. they live in fear.

there are a lot of deranged people who take any opportunity, any cause and align themselves with something, and all of a sudden we are having a political discussion of blaming one side or the other. >> let's talk about house majority steve scalise, who is still in critical condition but doctors say he will make an excellent recovery. president trump said these touching words about the congressman earlier. >> president trump: my dear friend steve scalise took a bullet for us. he is enduring but having a hard time. far worse than anybody thought. our country will perhaps become closer, more unified, so

important. so we all owe steve a big, big thank you. >> so that was very nice commentary, and very close to president trump and candidate trump when he was running for office. >> i think he would've been like this to any member of congress whether they supported him or not. it won't be the first time he has to play this role, unfortunately there will be other times to come. >> there is a new jersey democrat strategist who actually said this. he had little sympathy for scalise because he had lack of support for gun control. also we are at war with foolish, narcissistic rich people.

why is this so shocking? 48 hours after the shooting, he is posting, hunt republican lawmakers. >> that is awful and unbelievable. >> one of the stories that's not brought up enough is medical expertise. there are new and improved surgery and techniques. we always talk about our declining homicide rate. one of the reasons is because we are saving people. like casualties of war. i think that's where they learn it. we don't want to be deceived by the fact -- in some cities the homicide rate is going up in others going down. >> president trump fired up his

opponent again with an eye opening tweet on the witch hunt. coming up next. ♪ whoooo.

>> president trump hitting back hard today on the russian investigation with us this week. i'm being investigated for firing the fbi director for the man he told me to fire the fbi director. witch hunt. rosenstein appointed the special counsel to head up the russian investigation which is looking at president trump for obstruction of justice. mike huckabee says that a lot of these leakers are lying to try and take down the president. >> that's who we need to start questioning, who are these sources? if they start talking, they don't belong in a circle of trust. i'm convinced that there is an

attempt to overthrow this president, and that is anarchy. >> so you are hearing a lot of is now in the press about suspicions that comey had this conversation with the president and he then leaked this memo in order to spark a special counsel investigation of the president. and people are suspicious of that and thinking that they are trying to take this president down from within. so rosenstein is in charge, and other people have reach been i. donald trump is in a video game right now called, get trump. he put the coin in on inauguration. for the next four years, he's

navigating through different levels of attacks. oncoming monsters and different weapons. and there is another weapon obstruction. so he's actually trying to get through and play the game for four years. but he's got to get through all of these levels. if you remember "doom," that was my favorite game. >> the level of anxiety right now, where would you put that in the trump white house? >> based on my experience, i was a spokesperson during that whole time, and he writes very eloquently about what what that was like. and today you have a column, saying that if there is no

evidence of the underlying crime, then the investigation should end. everybody was caught up in ancillary things. jared kushner's lawyer had the best response out of everybody, saying there's an investigation of course, we expected this. that's putting fuel on the fire, saying who's your best role model on this. if you look at what the president did today, talking about scalise, this is a big accomplishment. a campaign promise fulfilled and they focus on that. every didn't tweet that thing about the witch hunt, he probably would've had that fully in the candidate can today.

>> if you look at three of the top legal minds, constitutional scholars, they all say that there is no obstruction of justice case here. >> people who have done other obstructions of justice cases, there is more evidence here for an obstruction case. there are other people who participated in these efforts. as a matter of what chef you want to call into the kitchen. i don't know how it plays out there. to me the big news today is you have staff told to preserve records. you had the president's lawyer saying that he's hiring his own lawyer, and that pence's hiring

his own lawyer. and now they are going to be interviewing people, communications people for the campaign. so it goes beyond. one of the things that so interesting is maybe now, it's not about collusion but about obstruction. it's not only collusion but potentially obstruction, and now there is a financial peace that involves jared kushner. and so we have it on many levels. i think the most intriguing thing is that rosenstein put out a very strange announcement that says, don't believe any anonymous sources. is he talking about news that artie came out, or more news that's coming? this is really crazy. >> i think it's very superficial

and borders on asinine. because there's really no evidence. all of these people, already had attorneys. this is no new developments. jared has been represented. the president trust the attorneys, and the bottom line is it smart to have a lawyer. don't you all have lawyers hashtag you need them for other reasons. the thing is it would be ridiculous if you didn't have lawyers. when it was said that it was collusion with the president, now again mysteriously, five anonymous sources. so don't sink your teeth into

stories where there are anonymous sources. i had comey testified that he didn't think he was going to obstruct. so where exactly is the story here? the story is people trying to undermine the president of the united states. legal comey said he took it as a direction. the most interesting thing is that there's so much talk this weekend about whether trump will in fact fire mueller. i think that's a crazy idea but apparently not ruled out. go directly ahead, he holds a rally in the miami

>> president trump was back on the road today holding a rally in miami. demanding that a cop killer gets returned to the united states. shot and killed a trooper back in 1983 and instead of spending the rest of her life in jail, she's been living a good life in cuba for years. president obama made a big splash when he reopened diplomatic relations with cuba, but that outraged new jersey troopers. president trump takes a much stronger line with the country. >> president trump: i say put an end to the abuse.

release the political prisoners. return the fugitives of american justice, including the return of the cop killer. the harboring of criminals and fugitives will end. you have no choice. it will end. >> so if you have been watching "the five" for years, that's not the first time you've heard that kind of talk. >> chris christie talked about it wants. she killed a new jersey trooper, and she's been free ever since. and trump went right after the deal, and we got nothing in this deal. what trump is doing is with that deal done, we want a better deal.

we might not be equal in the deal, but we want those people back. you can make a direct link between the shootings, because there's a love affair with left wing radical violence and you saw that with the weather underground and the black panthers. she was never retrieved the because for some she was a radical hero. >> on madam secretary the show, in the show she actually didn't commit the crime. and she comes back to a hero's welcome. >> don't you hate creative license? >> trump talked very passionately about human rights

conditions. and since president obama made that deal, conditions have worsened in that country. >> use the power of the united states to increase the good around the entire world. we do not support harboring fugitives that execute police officers. why do we always had to bend over backwards and play by their rules and by their terms when we actually have power and influence and leverage to actually accomplish some greater good. this is the easiest thing in the world for president obama to ask for at the time. he gave them everything, we got nothing back in return. i think what president trump did make a lot of sense, any honored his promise, and marco rubio was

also in support. >> the embassies remain open, but what does change, you can travel. you're still allowed to send money to family if you are there. but one thing that changes, is that if you do business there, you actually have to pay business and not the military. >> the argument that comes from the left is, you know what, the embassies will still be open, trade will be there, and they are allowed to use u.s. dollars. the reason why is not reasonable is we had a failed policy that allowed a communist state to remain in place on our doorstep for years. and president obama was making an effort of trying to change the dynamic, and trying to bring

american values into cuba, and encouraging our economic interests because of the cuban government and people, the virtues of capitalism. what were doing now is pulling back. and the leader in terms of the obama efforts, trump is making a political play here and somehow you get some cuban-americans who want to see change. but this is a total political move. >> he's talking about having a republican senator just lifted the whole embargo. stop it. legal one of things obama didn't do was trying to separate out the payment act. if you go there, you actually pay the cuban military was

actually perpetrating a lot of the humanitarian issues. >> so now we don't have to pay the military and that's good. because people are not doing too well over there in cuba. cuba is jailing dissidents. and i honor president obama's desire to change the dynamic in that relationship, and open up that country but he did it in a wrong way. you don't go over there and do a wave at a baseball game. and send all that money over there and it goes directly to the military. the deal had no teeth, and president trump went in there and said we are going to rip this deal up and go back to the negotiating table. >> directly ahead, a young woman is convicted of manslaughter for

sending texts. we will tell you what that's all ab

>> her actions and her failure to act, and she put him in that toxic environment constituted each and all wanted and reckless actions. this court now finds you guilty. >> now is a massachusetts judge convicting a girl of manslaughter. ms. carter back in 2014 sent a barrage of taxes to her boyfriend telling him to kill himself. ms. carter now faces up to 20 years in jail when she's sentenced on august 3rd. not just to draw the picture for you, he was in a car and he's texting with her, and gases are

collecting in the car, and she tells him to get back in the car where he died. now massachusetts doesn't have a law against encouraging suicide, but you have a situation where she says, she cared for him, he was terribly depressed, and i don't want him to live this way anymore. what do you think? >> i think is very clear she had a direct role in the cause of his death. she tried to take a chance by saying, she thought she would go against a judge and fare better against a jury trial. wrong. very clearly this person is a danger to others. that's been evidence between thousands of facebook and text messages between them. all she had to do was let a family member note. instead, she might as well put a gun to his head. i think she should be even

further than just an accomplice to a murder. this act likely resulted in great bodily injury or death. and she kept telling him to get back in the car and kill himself. so i'll feel better when she's behind bars. >> if you do have laws like that, it would impede end-of-life requests made by loved ones and family members. >> this is a case where she is liable and culpable. she begged someone on to that extent, you have to be liable either as an accessory, inciting something, i'm not sure what the correct legal terminology is,

but free speech has limitations. it is not completely free. and if yours free speech causes someone to die, as a direct result, then i think you have to face the music. 20 years is a longtime. >> she may not get 20 years but she's going to get something apparently. she was not present at the scen scene. today, his family was quite pleased with the verdict. >> they were. it is difficult and good round groundbreaking. >> i would say the prosecutor put it very well by saying, there are no winners today. >> i think there is a winner, justice. number one, if the aclu is

worried that they should impede and of life discussions because that's good. end-of-life discussions should be extremely difficult. it's important to make that as difficult as possible, not make it impossible will make it hard. number two, why did she do this? i believe this to be true, for the drama of it. be famous for a grieving girlfriend. it's kind of like the majestic death scenes. the third thing, she didn't kill him with her hands, but she goaded him to death. how similar is this to the discussion we've had in the last week? pushing somebody to commit deat death. especially through the internet

that you can actually cause someone to do something. i don't know what the answer is, but i think today is the right answer. >> you see kind of the nexus and connecting all of this together. some americans have no empathy towards other, and the use of social media, you can hide and bully others. overt social media, twitter or facebook. and somebody literally entrust you you with their life. and a beautiful life of a young man ended. >> sometimes you have to consider what's going on with somebody who wants to end their life on their terms. >> that's for terminal illness.

>> in other countries, they are allowing young people to commit suicide because of depression. >> we are talking about end-of-life. don't move, once upon a time hansel and gretel came upon a house made out of gingerbread. being quite hungry, they started eating the roof. the homeowner was outraged. luckily the geico insurance agency had helped her with homeowners insurance. she got all her shingles replaced.

hansel and gretel were last seen eating their way through the candy cane forest. call geico and see how easy it is to switch and save on homeowners insurance.

>> facebook friday, i'm going to go to this letter first appeared what three things would you want to have during a zombie apocalypse hashtag? i bet you not gun control. >> i would say property rights, and then i would be able to sell the property once the zombies are gone. >> very clever. what three things would you want to have during a zombie apocalypse? >> people.

i would like to have an extra sharp machete, i would like to have some explosives, i would like to have some sort of bayonet stabbing object. >> that's how you stop a zombie, i just want to make that clear america. >> i would want one thing, one long thing of fabric to wrap myself up like a zombie. >> we actually did a zombie run last year. >> i'm starving right now so i'm going with a food theme. i want chips and salsa, frozen

rose, and dark chocolate. >> when did you have a frozen rose? >> i never had one but i saw one and i want one. >> i would want a knife, fork and plate because i would immediately become a zombie. so once a zombie, you wouldn't be scared. if there is a zombie apocalypse, just become a zombie and you're fine. if i knew this was a zombie apocalypse, i would kill myself so i still look great, and use utensils. in the zombie apocalypse, i would be a very cultured, sophisticated zombie. i would have zombie dinner parties, listen to really good jazz.
