an 80-year-old woman managed to throw nine coins into a jet engine before take offer. the flight was delayed eight hours. the woman said she did it for good luck. shep? >> shepard: a big surprise is coming on healthcare. that from president trump. in the senate, a last-minute play to repeal and replace obamacare. senate republicans working with a new agreement on the healthcare bill before they skip town for the holiday break. today on the program, five key moves that the u.s. senate could make to get their bill back on track from adjusting the medicaid roll back to eliminating the planned parenthood cuts. we'll show you options which might work best. senators are hearing testimony about the russian interference in the elections around the

world. and the worldwide hack attack just got work. federal express warning of big problems and word of a hack on an american power plant. let's get to it. first from the fox news deck this afternoon, president trump is predicting a great surprise when it comes to the gop effort to dismantle obamacare. here's what he told reporters a short time ago when meeting with the world series chicago cubs at the white house. >> healthcare is working along very well. we can have a big surprise with a great healthcare package. >> what do you mean by "big surprise?" >> you'll have a great surprise. >> shepard: a great surprise on the way. this comes as we've just learned that republicans are taking yet another crack at reaching a healthcare deal in the u.s. senate. a top gop senator and several republican aides now tell fox news that the majority leader mitch mcconnell and other

republican leaders are trying to negotiate an agreement by this friday. the day after tomorrow before congress breaks for the fourth of july. and then send it to the congressional budget office for a new score. the majority leader has delayed a vote on the senate healthcare bill until after the independence day recess but before the summer break. timing is important. the president spoke with senators to rally support. he said we'll see what happens and called the meeting tremendous. >> we had essentially 50 show up. the other two are on our side. i think we're going to get at least very close and i think we'll get it over the line. a great, great feeling in that room yesterday. >> a great feeling about getting it over the line. the president is lashing out at the media again today. he tweeted some of the fake news media likes to say i'm not totally engaged in healthcare.

wrong. i know the subject well and i want victory for the u.s. this comes after "the new york times" reported yesterday that president trump had been largely on the sidelines in the healthcare talks with gop senators. during negotiations for the healthcare bill in the house, the president took a trip to capitol hill and called dozens on the fence. the times reports this time around in the senate, the white house officials have given vice president pence a more active role because of his ties to senators as a former congressman. the paper reports that the president has gotten more engaged in recent days reaching out to senators that have come out against the healthcare plan. there's nine of them now as things stand. and republicans can afford to lose two votes in the senate and still pass the bill. a lot going on. kevin corke is on it. kevin? >> you're right. very interesting to hear the president's description, the way things are going now. he's talking in terms of confidence. that wasn't the feeling you got in listening to white house

officials earlier in the week because of the math is the math. you're talking about a dozen senators that are saying we're not going to back this circumstance. as you pointed out, the president welcoming 50 senators to the white house yesterday. again, the idea is keep the conversation going. can something be worked out? you may have heard this today. chuck schumer reaching across the aisle saying listen, mr. president, let's start over, start from the beginning. start fresh, if you will. let's see what the white house has to say about that. >> have to find out if he's serious. he hasn't been serious. obamacare is such a disaster, such a wreck. he wants to save something that is hurting a lot of people. hurting a lot of people. you have to be very, very serious. he's done a lot of talking, bad talking. he just doesn't seem like a serious person. >> here's the problem with that perspective, shepard. you have to understand that part of the issue for the president

in particular is there are some hard feelings on capitol hill like he's bruising feelings before he can get things going. you heard senator collins saying he doesn't understand how things get going on capitol hill. when you get a reach out, even if it's half-hearted, you say the right thing and reach back. the president didn't take that opportunity. we heard from sarah huckabee sanders who said that right now the focus is only on plan a and that's getting something done. >> the president has been very engaged in this process as has multiple members of his administration. he's made a lot of calls directly to members. he had roughly 46 members of the senate here yesterday. they had a long and lengthy and very good productive conversation. we'll continue doing that just like he did with the house, he was engaged and making sure that that happened. he is somebody that we said

before, i would never underestimate this president. if he's committed to getting something done, he will. >> the deputy press secretary said listen, you guys are talking like this is over. it's a done deal. this is a process. so she says just wait and see. something big will still happen. >> shepard: clearly not over. breaking news now. let's go -- look on capitol hill. a number of -- i thought we had tape. there's been a number of demonstrations this afternoon, protests taking place inside the republican senator marco rubio's office on capitol hill. in addition to the republican healthcare effort, outside the office rob portman, more arrests have just happened. peter doocy is there and live for us. peter? >> organizers of today's protest, that's been going on the last 2 1/2 hours or so. half dozen republican senators say about 40 people have been arrested so far, a lot of what happens once they get kicked out of the offices when they're not

allowed to see the senator is this. we have here a handful of -- i'm told there's a doctor in there, a med student in there they're holding signs to say trump care equals debt. they're screaming at the top of their lungs which in these old buildings with the marble-lined floors really makes a lot of noise. it was impossible the last couple hours to be anywhere in the russell senate office building and not hear these protesters. what is interesting, they're not just going after people on the fence. senator rob portman came out in opposition to the healthcare draft. i was speaking to some folks with this group and they want to make sure that he doesn't support anything that could replace the affordable care act. so even though portman was a no, they are still out here screaming their lungs out on the floor of his office building causing quite a ruckus, shep. the capitol police have been letting -- there are some arrests going on this.

is what the capitol police has been dealing with the last 2 1/2 hours. we've seen them here at portman's office. we've seen them at rubio's office. if the photographer could just zoom in a little bit. the capitol police let them have their voices heard for a while. then they just start taking them out one at a time. when the people refuse to walk, they had to be carried. they're all being taken out one at a time in plastic handcuffs. that's what we're looking at right now. the capitol police have it under control. they do have to every time this happens, they have to close down the entire hallway. nobody can go through. so the process is not interrupted. we also have seen capitol police officers taking extensive photos of the protesters and of their signs and anything that they may have left behind. it does seems like a lot of

these people were expecting to be arrested. a few minutes ago, i saw people with this group with what looks to be their personal effects over to one of the organizer whose is not sitting indian-style on the floor planning to get arrested. this is what it looks like. there's somebody in a lab coat. i'm not sure if that is a doctor or a med students being taken to the elevator bank where she will be processed. and then they're just going to keep going down the line. so because the united states senate has taken so long to do anything about healthcare, this is what they're dealing with. this is going to continue it seems because we've been seeing a lot of this, shep, until there's something done, something voted on one way or the other. >> shepard: peter, thanks a lot. a lot more on healthcare coming up, specifically this. the five things the u.s. senate can change about the bill that

might make it slide. president trump's former campaign manager, paul manafort yesterday registered as a foreign agent for political consulting work he did for a pro russian political party in the ukraine. paul manafort has registered retroactively. in a filing, he said his consulting firm has received more than $17 million from the ukrainian party of regions. the party's leader was the former ukrainian president, a key ally of the russian president vladimir putin. you may remember he escaped to russia as the parliament ousted him during demonstrations in 2014. candidate trump fired paul manafort from his campaign after a series of reports on manafort's ties to russia and ukrainian politics. he's the second high profile member of the trump team to register retroactively as a former agent or a foreign agent. the former national security

adviser michael flynn registered retroactively for work he did with the turkish government. both men are looking into the investigation in the russian interference of the election and the trump ties to russia. kevin corke has more. >> i'm glad you mentioned that, $17 million. other members had to register and detail their activities as foreign agents. this was a massive setback for the administration before it became the administration. the campaign suffering. the president did get rid of paul manafort, although they have been clear to suggest what he did then was no reflection was a broader collusion with the russians. i should add this, people are talking about this and they're asking the simple question, what did he know, talking about president, and when did he know it. >> paul manafort who was for a

time the general chairman of the campaign and also the presidential inaugural committee have registered retroactively as representatives of foreign government to retroactively comply, which they were not in compliance with. does the white house regret that they're not in compliance with the law when they worked on behalf of candidate trump or the inaugural committee? do you have any reaction that they're trying to do something that they should have done long ago? >> i can't speak for the campaign. i'm here as a representative of the white house. that would be a campaign matter and i can't speak to that. >> there it is. campaign matter. neverthele nevertheless, raises questions about what the president now and his tie to us russia. >> shepard: andrew napolitano says if the russians were paying manafort, he's going to have

explaining to do. more on the senate republican's push for healthcare reform and their effort to get a deal, at least an agreement in place in the next two days. this is news. some republicans say the longer this goes on, the worst the outcome could be. a lot to get into from the fox news deck on a wednesday afternoon. the pain can really be a distraction. pain is sometimes in my hands, right before a performance especially. only aleve has the strength to stop minor arthritis pain for up to 12 hours with just one pill. this is my pain. but i am stronger. aleve. all day strong. finding the best hotel price is now a safe bet. because tripadvisor searches over 200 booking sites - so you save up to 30% on the hotel you want. lock it in. tripadvisor.

>> shepard: much more now on president trump's former campaign manager, paul manafort registers retroactively as a former agent. let's bring in andrew napolitano. how unusual is this? >> well, it's very unusual to register as a foreign agent retroactively. the law does permit that. there's certain kinds of personalities you have to pay. it's not a criminal offense to do that. what is fascinating is that mr. manafort has agreed to testify publicly before the house intelligence committee, one of six committees conducts an investigation. but that's a political stunt. republicans will try to make manafort and the president look good. the democrats are going to try to trip him up. the real investigation that he needs to be concerned about is bob mueller's investigation. he has fbi agents, subpoena power, search warrants and the ability to seek an indictment before a grand jury. that's part of the big large

investigation of russia, their efforts to hack, successful hacking, efforts to influence the election now beyond dispute. >> shepard: we know they did that. the question is did they get help. >> correct. that would be the crime for which mueller is looking. if it happened. did any americans -- i'm not talking about cheering them on. the president did cheering before he was president. >> shepard: no law against that. >> did the president actively help them, a conspiracy between agents and americans to hack the democratic national committee e-mails. that's what bob mueller is looking for. that's the core of what he's looking for. >> shepard: further, these two clearly had some ties, paul manafort, whether they're nefarious or not, but they're ties. the president has russian ties, lots of business dealings. the question is did the russians do these things for these men, president trump, did he get real

estate help in exchange for something? that is something else. >> here's what happens when you have an investigation like this. they ask for documents. you turn them over. they may find something else. >> shepard: once found a blue dress. >> correct. because the order appointing bob mueller lets them go to all related matters, he can go to a blue dress, so to speak, continuing with your metaphor. we don't know how long it will go. iran contra took seven years. didn't go anywhere. mueller will go faster. he has core facts that have been established. what is not established is whether any americans helped the russians. >> in the grand scheme of things, you want to get in done, get it over with and move on. certainly does complicate the business of governing. >> well, we have another national election coming up with the house of the representatives and a third of the senate.

wouldn't it be nice to know that americans knew that the russians wouldn't tinker with it? >> shepard: this would help the rest of the world, too, especially around europe, many concerned about russian meddling. we'll see how it goes. >> yeah. this is bipartisan. dianne feinstein made one of the strongest comments. so proud to hear her, about the dangers of russian meddling. other democrats saying why aren't you complaining with me? everybody should be concerned about a foreign government trying to affect the outcome of an american election. >> shepard: it's not about anything but them. find out how to stop them. pleasure to see you. >> thanks, shep. >> shepard: we're waiting for the big surprise on healthcare that the president mentioned. coming up, the five moves that the senators could make. could more money to fight opioid abuse get them enough support?

what about getting people more tax credit to help older and poor americans buy the insurance they need? that's coming up. having moderate to severe plaque psoriasis is not always easy. it's a long-distance run. and you have the determination to keep going. humira has a proven track record of being prescribed for nearly 10 years. humira works inside the body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to symptoms. in clinical trials, most adults taking humira were clear or almost clear and many saw 75% and even 90% clearance in just four months. 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.

>> shepard: as i reported, president trump promising a big surprise on healthcare and gop leaders are pushing on the an agreement on healthcare. an agreement by friday and a vote later. the number 3 republican in the senate telling fox news the time to act is right now. >> we would like to get a solution in place as quickly as possible. get our members there. so it's a questioning of getting the cbo score and setting up the votes for when we get back after the fourth of july break. i don't know that there's any particular rush other than the longer that this strikes out,

the harder it becomes. i've said this before. there comes a point when you have to make some decisions and move forward and vote. we're at that point. >> time to make decisions. republicans can afford to lose but two votes and pass the bill. yesterday afternoon, three more republicans said they were against the plan as written. the total is now nine. a new poll from "usa today" and suffolk university that shows americans do not like this plan. it's approval and a survey taken saturday through yesterday shows 17% approval nationwide. still mississippi's senator roger wicker thinks the party can get to 50 votes by the end of the week. in that case, president pence would break the tie, when it comes for a vote sometimes before the break in august. senator wicker says he's optimistic because his colleagues are determined to get something done. mike emanuel live with more. what are we hearing from mitch

mcconnell? >> he's saying they can't afford to delay any longer. he says they must deliver for the american people and he says he's fellow senators will have a chance to offer input. >> senators will have more opportunities to offer their thoughts as we work towards an agreement and every member will have an opportunity to engage in robust debate out here on the senate floor. if one thing is clear, it's this. obamacare is a direct assault on the middle class. a direct assault on the middle class. it's getting worse and we have to act to finally move beyond its failures. >> so the time line at this point, try to get a deal by friday and send it to the cbo to analyze over the fourth of july recess and in theory, senators vote on healthcare reform when they return to the capitol. >> and chuck schumer sending a message to the president.

>> that's right. chuck schumer said all 100 senators went to the blair house near the white house and let's discuss healthcare reform. schumer said he would like the discussions to focus about things on the campaign trail. >> let's turn over a new leaf. let's start over. let's abandon more tax breaks for the rich. let's abandon cuts to medicaid. let's discuss what the american people are really concerned about. premiums. deductibles. the costs and quality of healthcare. >> those negotiations could be the next step if these talks fail to produce a deal. the focus right now is getting moderates an conservatives the yes. shep? >> shepard: thanks. as he tried to win over republican senators, mitch mcconnell could propose easing cuts to medicaid or adding more money to fight opioid abuse.

politco detailed five changes that could be made to make a compromise. let's go live to alex. nice to see you. >> hey there. >> what we don't know, are they going right with this to try to save more money and get a better deal under the budget? they give money away or are they going left with this to more moderate members? you have the list of five. run them for us. >> a lot of ideas of things that mitch mcconnell can do. time is returning short. they're talking about a new draft bill by friday. that's not that much time from now before people break before the july fourth recess. one of the things you mentioned that is a sticking point is this medicaid cut, which is something that is really dividing the more moderate and conservative wings of the republican party. discussion about premiums is something that will be a big

sticking point. so how mcconnell decides to bring the two sides of this broken divided conference together is the big question to watch here. >> shepard: so the medicaid mess one of five. the battle over subsidies in obamacare is your second point. >> yes. here's something that is really important to conservatives that want to dismantle obamacare. this is something that they have talked about for seven years. the question is how do you do that, how do you address that when it's sort of a complicated issue in talking about dismantling obamacare to talk about. but when you talk about the subsidies, it gets more sticky. different senators from different stays have different views on these things. >> the medicaid mess is number 1. the battle over subsidies is number 2. and number 3, rolling back obamacare regulations. >> this is another big sticking point where conservatives and republicans have been campaigning, this is something that donald trump ran on.

how do you roll back regulation? this is something that conservatives want, they've been talking about. when you get into more moderate members who may feel differently. so again, the question is, how do you bring in dean heller, a nevada republican and more moderate, middle of the road guy up for re-election and people like mike lee and rand paul that feel very differently about that. >> shepard: so number 4, the planned parenthood problem. there's a few idea where the right of this discussion and the left couldn't be further apart. >> absolutely. one of the big questions here, can republicans somehow try to get democrats on board with this bill at all. so far that hasn't happened at all. it doesn't seem like democrats are too interested in working with republicans on this issue. that is how things have gone so far. you haven't seen a lot of interest from democrats in working with republicans.

that might be needed here if they want to move some kind of bill forward. it looks like they're in trouble at this point. >> shepard: the fifth point, adding enticements including more money to combat opioid abuse, a huge issue in so many states. >> it's a huge issue. something that is a bigger deal. you've seen the trump white house talk about this more. chris christie is playing a key role in this legislation. it's another thing that mcconnell needs to figure out before members go home for the july fourth holiday. you'll remember, it's going to get more complicated while these guys are home. they'll hear from constituents and constituents that want to talk about the opioid crisis and other things. that could complicate lives when they get back. could factor in how they decide to vote. >> i guess it depends on the turnout over the holiday is today is any indication. the betting on whether they want to moderate this bill, in other

words give more to people, or take more money out of the system. if you look to the house of representatives, this will have to go there obviously. it's the freedom caucus that is a sticking point. so makes sense that they would want to make this more conservative. >> it would make sense. remember, you have people like dean heller, collins from maine, murkowski from alaska. those are members that have concerns about pulling back and restricting coverage and premium hikes. so those are -- when you make the bill more conservative, you do more to turn off those senators. then look, mcconnell only really has a couple of no votes he can work with here. he has a narrow majority. makes it hard to pass this bill. >> shepard: thanks, alex. five things to look out in changing this bill there at

politco.com. russia did not meddle in our election but meddling with elections all over the world. the senate holding a hearing on how the keep that from happening again. the news continues after this.

crew and passengers safe. i have spent months engaging with our closest allies and foreign partners on this issue. many have expressed strong support for this effort. these actions will improve the security of u.s. bound flights and i'm hopeful other nations will follow suit. unless we all raise our security standards, terrorists that see commercial aviation as the greatest takedown, will find an attack the weakest link. together we have the opportunity to raise the baseline on aviation security globally. let me be clear, security is my number 1 concern. our enemies are adaptive and we have to be adaptive as well. a number of the members can be dialled up or dialled down. over the next several weeks and months, we'll work with our partners to ensure these measures are fully implemented. again, today is a starting

point. we're taking prudent steps to make aircraft more secure to reduce insider threats. meantime, we'll launch a concerted effort with foreign partners to put in place wider counter terrorism improvements. we'll have expanded exchanges of watch lists and more advanced security checks of travelers around the world. finally, let me commend all the outstanding men and women throughout the department who make aviation security their daily mission. whether they're working on the front lines at the tsa checkpoint, developing better screening technology in the labs or preparing the intelligence that helps us make tough decisions, every passenger owes them a debt of gratitude. i'm proud to lead them and all of the employees that make our nation secure. we've had productionive

discussions about the threats we face and i am encouraged by their effort to find solutions with us that will help elevate global security standards. thank you for the invitation to speak today, richard. i look forward to our conversation with more. thank you. [applause] >> thank you, mr. secretary, for joining us today. >> shepard: will we go. so new regulations on jets coming into the united states from foreign countries, enhanced screening on electronic devices. we'll post details and how they affect you at foxnews.com momentarily. there's no doubt that russia has interfered and continues to fire in american and european elections. that's a problem. that was the answer from a panel of experts and former diplomats from the united states and europe.

they testified today before the u.s. senate intelligence committee. the focus of this hearing was to -- was supposed to be russian interference in european electio elections. but the united states election came up repeatedly. >> do you have any doubt that russian interference is driven by putin himself? start with you, ambassador byrnes. >> no doubt. >> no doubt. >> none. >> shepard: no doubt at all. vladimir putin has repeatedly denied that his government played any role in the u.s. election. catherine herridge is live in washington. >> during the campaign's final weeks, the obama administration issued a statement condemning russia's election interference. former diplomats said the response was not proportional.

>> the american people need to know clearly after ringing the village bell. we should have had a more painful response to the russians. whether that was immediate sanctions on covert actions. >> there's no doubt that the russian president, vladimir putin, is behind the meddling in the u.s. and europe. democrats also sounding off. >> at this point, i believe we have a pretty good understanding of the russian playbook. russia's goal is to sow chaos and confusion to fuel internal disagreements and to undermine democracies whenever possible. >> some witnesses criticized president trump for sending mixed messages on the validity of the intelligence community's findings from last year, shep. >> shepard: thanks, catherine. the nation's top defense

officials say syria is already reacting to the president's new warning about what would happen in the event of a new chemical attack. that as the murderous dictator, al-assad makes a move of his own. more coming up. i have afib. even for a nurse, it's complicated... and it puts me at higher risk of stroke. that would be devastating. i had to learn all i could to help protect myself. once i got the facts, my doctor and i chose xarelto®. xarelto®... to help keep me protected. once-daily xarelto®, a latest-generation blood thinner... ...significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. it has similar effectiveness to warfarin. xarelto® works differently. warfarin interferes with at least 6 blood-clotting factors. xarelto® is selective, targeting just one critical factor interacting with less of your body's natural blood-clotting function.

for afib patients well-managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® compares in reducing the risk of stroke. don't stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase risk of stroke. while taking, you may bruise more easily, or take longer for bleeding to stop. it may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you've had spinal anesthesia, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle-related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures... ...and before starting xarelto®-about any conditions, such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. it's important to learn all you can... ...to help protect yourself from a stroke. talk to your doctor about xarelto®. there's more to know™.

>> shepard: the top u.s. defense official says president trump's warning to the syrian government may have stopped another chemical attack there. on monday, the president said that the syrians would pay a heavy price should they again use chemical weapons against civilians. the defense secretary jim mattis says the fact that there's been no new attacks since then shows to him that syria took the president seriously. the united states ambassador to the united nations, nikki haley said today, she believes the president's words save lives. >> by the president calling out assad, by us continuing to

remind rush and iran as they continue to back assad, this is not something we're going to put up with. i'd like to thank the president saved many innocent men, women and children. >> shepard: white house officials said they saw ed that the syrian government may have been planning another attack. we don't know details. the syrian dictator bashar al-assad didn't seem concerned. he visited a russian air base. a clear signal that he continues to have support from the kremlin. the civil war does continue there. syrian forces dropping bombs on an islamic state held town today. activists say this bomb killed 15 people including children. they say the regime used cluster bombs which are illegal. jennifer griffin is live at the pentagon. jennifer, to you. >> shepard, it appeared the assad regime got the message. that's the word from secretary
