to see this. and you can take your whole family and it's not dumb and boring like most other movies. that's all the time we have left this evening. thanks for being with us. brian kilmeade is here next. he works 24/7. see you then. >> this is a fox news alert. at least 10 people are dead as wildfires rage. 100 people have been treated at two hospitals. most of them suffering smoke inhalation. two of the injured are said to be in critical condition. the wind-fueled fires have destroyed at least 1,500 homes at least two wineries have been destroyed and many others damages. a sun sset-to-sunrise curfew ha been imposed.

there have been some looters. fires are burning in a 200-mile region with the largest being in napa and sonoma counties. smoke is as far south as san francisco, some 60 miles away from the area. the director of the colorado department of forestry and fire protection says that the fires broke out "burned at explosive rates because of 50-mile-an-hour winds." vice president mike pence said that the federal government stands ready to provide any and all assistance to the state. pence's remarks came after california governor jerry brown asked president trump to declare a federal disaster. once again, we're following this breaking story that continues to cause so much damage in napa and sonoma counties of california. fast-moving wildfires blamed for at least 10 deaths. another 100 people have been

treated, mostly for smoke inhalation. two of the injured are said to be at this hour still in critical condition. we'll continue to update you throughout the night. you can expect more coverage on this during our 4:00 a.m. hour and well as "fox & friends." back to "fox news tonight," already in progress. >> how important was it to meet with the border patrol, to meet with the f.b.i., to go down there and talk to others when it comes to getting more judges when it comes to more border patrol and more lawyers for these, in some cases, unaccompanied minors? >> what a lot of people don't recognize is these policies or lack thereof affect our law enforcement communities. when you don't allow federal law enforcement to pick up convicted criminals from the jail, you force them into communities,

leaving law enforcement at risk. a lot of the policies deeply affect law enforcement. it's important to see what works for them and where they need the most help and then maintaining it. >> brian: so senator schumer saying, we talked to the president about a pathway to daca. he said, we're willing to take in reasonable security measures and illegal immigration measures. he said it's not reasonable. what do you say? >> they're unable to point to what is unreasonable about this. what is unreasonable about having a lawful system of immigration? what is unreasonable about the 77% of americans that think that we need to end sanctuary situations. look at the woman in portland. that woman harbored illegal aliens the person that attacked her had been deported 20 times, arrested

10 times before this year, before he attacked and raped a 65-year-old woman. that's not policies that the american people support and yet i've yet to hear opponents say why they're against them. >> brian: and there is 70 points here. in ordered to pass comprehensive immigration, which president bush couldn't do, president obama couldn't do, you need 60 votes. as certain as you are that out feel you are right, there will be give and compromise. do you feel there's a sense on both sides that needs to be compromised? >> absolutely. these are the president's legislative priorities. they should not come as a surprise. it's what he ran on. it's what he was elected to do. it's about border security but also about interior enforcement and legal immigration, so we're bringing the right people in.

so i think this is what he's coming to the table with. this is what he's saying. i represent the american people and this is what they want. but it's congress's decision and it's their responsibility and that's what we saw with daca, where the lasted a minnesota -- last administration declared themselves a legislative branch. >> brian: and it's important for people listening to understand there is talks of, there will be border enforcement in the '80s with reagan and it didn't happen. in 2006, both sides said we wrote a check to build a barrier when it works and they never built is. what language is in this to make sure that people have to fulfill what they promised? >> right. that's why the president thinks it's so important that these go hand in hand. you have it have a secure border. you have to have interior enforcement. how of to fix the asylum system to that create perverse

incentives. and then you can talk about the other fixes. you're right. the american people have been fooled in this before and they will not accept it any longer. >> brian: the numbers are staggering and i'm sure you know this, but this year alone, 34,000 plus unaccompanied minors coming across our border. and this is a time in which the border crossings have been decreased. and there's a provision passed that allows anyone from central america to stay here and get a ticket to come back for their hearing, but once they cross, they cannot be sent back. no one really knew what this was about, but, man, did we get to know this when saw people surge across the border for seemingly no apparent reason. >> when the last administration said that it would be their

policy, from 2009 to 2016, there was a 1,000-point increase in asylum seekers. when the last administration broadcast that we would have an open-borders policy, it happened this president said that we'll have a rule of law. >> brian: and will the president get nancy pelosi and chuck back in to discuss daca? >> i think it's clear from his legislative priorities that he laid out last night that he is serious about border security and interior enforcement and having a lawful system of immigration. >> brian: we'll see. in some places there will be a wall, in some a fences and in other places, topography does

not allow for anything. it will be exciting to see if anything is passed before year's end. 7 minutes past the hour, my privilege to bring in the former governor of arkansas that sat down with the united states to discuss his brand-new show and discuss that interview that will be airing shortly. governor, welcome back. great to see you here at this hour. >> great to be here, brian. and delight to be with you. >> brian: i guess it's an odd situation. people think if you know someone in power it's great to be able to access them and sit down with an interview. how did you go about the challenge knowing that your daughter works for him, you ran against him, and you want to be sure that he does well. how do you approach an interview that way? >> brian, i don't pretend to be a journalist or even play one on tv, but i interview him from the

perspective of a commentator. a lot of people that pretend to be journalists, they're not either. a lot of them work for political campaigns, worked for politicians, and now they pretend their objective. they're not. so there was no pretense on my part. i thought there was great questions that i was able to pose to him, everything from the embassy in jerusalem, when will that happen? he said, may not any time soon. we talked about the tax bill. a host of things. but there will be those that say, you just got the interview because your daughter is the press secretary. my response to that, probably so. >> brian: probably so. use your access and connections. welcome to america. i have to ask you, too, about what i was talking to sara flores about. i have heard you speak about

this. it's similar to what you have said. now bring me into washington. how does something get passed right now? >> first, let me say that sara flores was excellent in presenting the justice department's view on this. here's the reality of politics. the republicans have the house, senate and white house. if the democrats are serious about daca, which they say is very important to them, they have to understand that if all you have is a stale biscuit to bring to the potluck, you don't get to eat the entire meatloaf. you will have to give up something. if daca is important -- and by the way, i support the passage of daca but do it legislatively. the republicans can do this without democrats, especially if they decide to upend the filibuster rule, which i think they should. if you don't get it done by compromising on things like border security and the

republicans end up passing daca, the democrats are going to have to answer to their voters why for all the years when they had all the pieces, they didn't get it done and when the republicans had all the pieces, they did get it done. that's a winning issue for the republicans. it's a huge loser for the democrats. they need to wake up and i would say, smell the meatloaf. >> brian: i think it would be a huge mistake to do the simple 50. in four years, you could have a situation where the country dramatically changes. as frustrating as it is, if you had a president hillary clinton, you may not recognize the country in four or eight years. >> well, that's very likely. i just believe that the american people will support the border wall and also generally support daca. even republicans that don't like it will go along with it to get

some things that they want. let's try to get democrats on board and maybe there's at least seven or eight democrats in tough districts or maybe they should have some common sense and they realize their party is about to drive them over the cliff like "thelma & louise." maybe they will vote for a comprehensive package that includes border security and they get what they say they want, which is daca. >> brian: i want to get your take on what is going on with senator corker and the president. if you are a republican, you cannot be happy about this regardless of the side you are on, or are you? >> no, i'm not happy at all. i'm glad corker is leaving. you don't take on the president of your own party in "the new york times" and try to make degrading statements. if he says, i'm responding to donald trump. everybody knows when you attack

donald trump, he will come at you 10 times harder. there are more people that support donald trump in his role as president than support bob corker as a senator and i'm sure he's finding that out from the reactions today. i will say this one thing, brian. bob corker is being celebrated by the panels on the left wing talkshows. so if you want to be loved by the left, attack president trump. if you want to serve the american people and do what you were elected to do, don't fight with this president. help him. >> brian: and i will help you. i saw some of your show. it's awesome. you must be thrilled. you have music. you open up with a monologue. you have great interviews, great variety. it's not just politics. tell us how we see it. >> every saturday and sunday night 8:00 eastern. the show will come from nashvil

nashville. it's for the people of the heartland and so we put it in the heartland. and any time you good to nashville, you will have a lot of music, fun, and we have both. >> brian: and if you have your way, every talkshow host will have to learn to play an instrument and force a lot of them off the air because the governor can do it all. i appreciate it, governor. thank you for your time. >> thank you, brian. great to be with us. >> brian: 14 minutes after the hour. i think he might mean that. we'll find out later in a lie detector. law enforcement releasing new information about the las vegas shooter. you will be surprised about the timeline. it changed dramatically. espn suspended this anchor, jameel hill, after she calls for a boycott of the dallas cowboys. really? take a seat. you're taking on te cowboys? now ta you know who likes to be in c? this guy.

>> brian: 18 minutes after the hour now. law enforcement officials in las vegas releasing new information about stephen paddock and last week's shooting that he perpetrated. dan springer joins us from las vegas. a lot of developments today. >> yeah, and a couple of very interesting developments. one is that the police have

changed the timeline on when that security guard was shot. they now say it happened before the gunman opened fire on the crowd that's significant because it means the first shots in this massacre were fired in the hallway at jesus campos that went to the 32nd floor to check on an open door alarm. campos heard the sound of drilling. 6 minutes after firing the 200 rounds or so into the hallway at campos, stephen paddock unleashed thousands of bullets on the festival. it was almost nonstop for 11 minutes. campos prevented a chance for escape and saved a co-worker's life. >> he immediately notified security of his situation. in close proximity to campos being shot, there was a maintenance worker that presented himself on the 32nd

floor and mr. campos prevented hum from receiving any injuries. >> when s.w.a.t. officers blew down that door and got inside, they said it looked like a gun shop with ammunition and rifles everywhere. the f.b.i. interviewed paddock's brother, eric, a second time. this time it lasted four hours and was done here in las vegas. they're still building profile of this mass killer the f.b.i. conducted a second search of paddock's home in mesquite, nevada. they got another search warrant. another development -- police are desperately searching for what triggered the mass shooting plot and police say it was not just one thing. >> in coordination with the f.b.i.'s behavioral analysis unit, a comprehensive picture is being drawn as to the suspect's mental state and we don't believe that there is one

particular event in the suspect's life for us to key on. >> and sheriff lombardo said he is frustrated but will not stop until he can answer the question, why this happened. brian? >> brian: we still don't know how he died and why he would kill himself at that point with no one threatening. is there a chance, dan, that he killed himself by mistake? >> oh, i don't think so. i think he put a gun in his mouth and pulled the trigger i think it was by design. i don't know if he had designs on killing himself before all this, but he knew he wasn't getting out of thereafter he fired rounds at the security guard. >> brian: they say he had an escape plan and had protective gear. dan springer, thanks so much. i'm sure we'll learn more tomorrow. meanwhile, let's change gears to

another major story. the nfl "national anthem" controversy taking a traumatic turn. espn 16 giving a two-week suspension to jemeel hill after she called for a boycott of advertisers for the dallas cowboys, following owner jerry jones telling his team, you better stand. >> we cannot in the nfl in any way give the implication that we tolerate disrespect to the flag. we cannot do that. and i know the vice president did leave because in his opinion tea the teams were -- there is

equivocation." joining us now with reaction, from denver, ted harvey, pro-trump p.a.c. to defend the president. and from washington, democratic strategist, robin byro. when you heard that the vice president went to celebrate the retiring of peyton manning's number at halftime, what were you thinking? were you thinking that something would happen? >> you know, brian, i also want to say i'm a veteran u.s. army ranger that served with the 75th ranger regiment. so i'm deeply patriotic. and what i expected to happen did happen. the vice president did go there and under donald trump's instruction, if one of the players took a knee, he did leave. i will assert to you that that is his right to exercise a

peaceful protest, just like the nfl players did. he, very peacefully, got up and left, because he was protesting how these players close to exercise their light to peacefully protest racism in america. that fact, though, i think is getting lost on people. i think that people really do how conflate that the players are protesting the flag, the anthem, the united states. >> brian: they are. they're protesting what is going on in america and the flag represents america. am i not right? ted? >> absolutely. without a doubt the american people love the nfl, but i love my country more. and we have paid entertainers that are disrespecting our

country, our president and our constitution. it's inappropriate. and the american people sent a strong message. if you continue to disrespect the flag and the president, we're going to stop watching the n nfl. there will be consequences for that behavior. >> brian: we have jemele hill, who is on a show just getting their feet underneath it. she tweeted out something, if you are against jerry jones forcing his players to stand for "the national anthem," hit them where it hurts. go after his advertisers. within minutes, espn suspended

her. >> she attacked her employer, so that's the difference. we've gotten so far away from this discussion. it happened against colin kaepernick was sitting on a bench. a special forces veteran was offended by that. and he said the best way to peacefully protest in a respectful manner was to take a knee. >> brian: i appreciate your service and your sincerity, but when you take a seat for "the national anthem," i can make my own decision. and that's the problem. the american people are looking for a pie chart. they know how someone feels when they take a knee and disrespects the flag. >> and the espn commentator, far worse than what she said to the supporters of trump. she called all 60,000 supporters white supremacists and she

should have been fired two weeks ago the fact that she gets a slap on the wrist because she offended the employer because she went after the dallas cowboys, that's ridiculous. she should have been fired a long time ago for how she is handling this situation. >> brian: al sharpton, a real unifier, tweeted, "jemele's suspension is an outrage and should not go unanswered." so expect protest outsight of espn about colin kaepernick talking a knee, him saying, i don't like the way law enforcement treats minorities, and now this mess, hurting a multi billion dollar company, making the fans make a choice and every sunday, you care as much about if your team wins or loses to how many players are sitting on the side. >> i took an oath to defend this

flag. the flag stands for freedom. you have the freedom to choose how to exercise your first amendment rights. i think i absolutely had to cry forced nationalism. it's a slippery slope. >> i don't agree with that. >> brian: i'm not telling ted what to think and you are not telling ted what to think. ted, final thoughts? >> right. the constitution gives you the freedom to do that and there's consequences for doing it and you could be put on the bench, just like jerry jones told his players today or you could be fired because you don't have enough revenue coming into the industry. that's what this is about. the american people are patriotic americans that love their country more than the nfl and they better get on their feet and play ball and entertain the public. >> brian: and if dak prescott decides to take a knee and sit down, does jerry jones say, good to the locker room?

everybody's on the clock. thanks, guys. great debate. thanks for your service. appreciate it. up next, president trump intensifying his war of words with senator bob corker. will there be fallout in congress? we'll talk to marsha blackburn. and a twitter controversy you will not believe. where's gary?

if you have moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's, and your symptoms have left you with the same view, it may be time for a different perspective. if other treatments haven't worked well enough, ask your doctor about entyvio, the only biologic developed and approved just for uc and crohn's. entyvio works by focusing right in the gi-tract to help control damaging inflammation and is clinically proven to begin helping many patients achieve both symptom relief as well as remission. infusion and serious allergic reactions can happen during or after treatment. entyvio may increase risk of infection, which can be serious. while not reported with entyvio, pml, a rare,

serious brain infection caused by a virus may be possible. tell your doctor if you have an infection, experience frequent infections, or have flu-like symptoms, or sores. liver problems can occur with entyvio. if your uc or crohn's medication isn't working for you, ask your gastroenterologist about entyvio. entyvio. relief and remission within reach. between the president and senator bob corker. they were once really good friends it's triggering tensions between the white house and congress. listen to what senator corker told "the new york times" on sunday about the international ramifications of president trump's tweets to "the new york times." >> he doesn't realize that, you know, we could be headed toward world war iii with the comments he's making. >> brian: really?

listen to the strong message that steve bannon has for senator corker. >> if bob corker has any honor or decency, he should resign immediately. he should not let the words stand. >> brian: it's getting ugly. what impact will this have in the months ahead? he needs senator corker's votes. marsha blackburn, running for senator corker's seat in 2018 because he's quitting and she joins us now with reaction from nashville. i know you are not in a great spot because you are friends with senator corker and supporter of president trump's. in this case, can you support senator corker going to the "new york times" and ripping the president? >> brian, i think when we hear things like this, my first reaction is, i'm not going to get in the middle of anybody else's argument. and i will tell you, i think most of my colleagues in the house and i are working diligently and want to work with our colleagues in the senate. and stand with president trump

to get this agenda across the finish line. he ran on it. he promised action. and it's up to us to deliver and the main thing the american people ask us, when will we get taxes reformed, build a wall and start on infrastructure? >> brian: do you think that senator corker, who is chairman of foreign relations knows that there's a north korea crisis on the president's plate and the recertification of the worst iranian deal you can imagine, which allowed it to go forward. i told "the new york times" that the president acted like he was doing "the apprentice." i would not expect senator sh schumer to say that. >> comments like that will not be helpful from anyone. i will not get in the middle of a fight. we have a lot of things that we have to get done by the end of the year. it's important that we in

congress focus on the issues that the american people want us to focus on and nothing else. >> brian: as a lawmaker, very few people outwork you, whether it's the convention you are putting together or agenda you are looking to push forward. i've seen it up close. now you are making the decision to jump in and become the next senator from tennessee. and to do that, you have to run ads. you chose to run this ad on twitter. let's watch. >> i'm marsha blackburn. i'm a hardcore, card-carrying tennessee conservative, politically incorrect and proud of it. i'm 100% pro-life. i fought planned parenthood and we stopped the sale of baby body parts, thank god. >> brian: twitter said it's too inflammatory. we will not run that ad. what is your reaction? >> it's astounding to me that twitter, which is an important outlet, would choose to censor a

political ad and a pro-life message. this is a pro-women, pro-baby, pro-life message. and, yes, indeed, as chairman of the select investigative panel, the work that our committee delivered stopped this practice of selling baby body parts. it's something that people wanted to see shut down. what is so amazing, twitter can go out there and allow all of the showing of take a knee during "the national anthem," but they will not allow a pro-life, pro-woman, pro-baby message. >> brian: and what was their explanation? >> their explanation is that it was too inflammatory. and that it would evoke a negative response. if i were to take that out, then they would allow us to push forward that video. >> brian: we just found this. this is advertised. "the g.o.p.'s 20-week abortion

ban will harm women and families and criticized doctors for routine care." that seems that it might be sensitive. but they took that money. double standard. >> yes, it is a double standard. and while they double down and issued a second statement today, they disallowed my video, i said, look, i'm just doubling down on the fact that, yes, i am pro-life and i stand by my message. >> brian: thanks for joining us. twitter rejected you, but we said yes. ended on a happy note. one of the issues that will face the congresswoman, james mattis delivering an ominous warning to our army over the north korea crisis. don't go away. disguise ♪

>> brian: a series of out-of-control wildfires wreaking havoc across california. 17 fires are currently burning, taking the lives of 10 people, with more casualties expected. in northern california's famed wine country, at least 1,500 structures destroyed. a state of emergency declared. around anaheim in southern california, a brush fire destroyed six homes with thousands of structures in jeopardy. 4,500 acres have been burned so

far driven by strong winds with 5% of the fires contained. the trump administration racheting up thinly-veiled threats of war. >> right now it's a diplomatically-led, economic-sanked butt rest to try to turn north korea off this path. there is one thing that the u.s. army can do, you have to be ready to ensure that we have military operations that our president with employ if needed >> brian: in addition to mattis's direct comments, president trump took to twitter and said this, "our country has been unsuccessfully dealing with north korea for 25 years. policy didn't work."

you know something big is going on right now. >> something big is going on right now. the united states finally have a military component to its diplomacy or negotiations with north korea. president trump has been criticized for threatening north korea publicly, but i think in this case, it took something like that to get the world's attention, the attention of ky a china, u.n., and to deal with north korea diplomatically. the person famous for saying that diplomacy counts for nothing unless you have a threat behind it was secretary of state george schultz. and no one accused schultz of being a cowboy. he was right. you had to have the military possibility standing behind the stern diplomacy. >> brian: and you have general mattis making the statements knowing that the world is carrying them. and we're not just waiting for

war. 20 nations have curbed diplomatic or business situations, people co-spa-- mex spain, kuwait. these countries are responding to the president. >> and the state department put that policy in as far back as february. it was their intention to go around the world trying to get the rest of the country, the countries you mentioned, to squeeze north korea financially, economically and diplomatically. not allowing their ships in their ports or transfer their money. it's beginning to work. it's not the solution, but it's part of the plan to isolate north korea more than it has been in the past. >> brian: and i hope we're on hyperspeed when it comes to missile defense. the american media is not taking the president as serious as the

rest of the world. >> god knows the japanese are the country with the missiles flying over them. everyone is accusing president trump of talking about nuking north korea and doing the unthinkable. you know what the unthinkable is, brian, the japanese giving up on the united states and getting nuclear capability on their own and nobody doubts they could do it, or south korea going to nuclear capability, other nations in asia or the middle east. then you are where you have the unthinkable. >> brian: and getting closer and closer to the president going to china and they don't want to just talk about north korea. so they have to show some progress so the president doesn't 12 on it like rainman. they want to talk about trade and taiwan. thank you for joining us. up next, will the left sink

you got to celebration columbus day. will it soon be named indigenous people day? christopher columbus is now becoming a target. indigenous people day may be the new columbus day. not if italians have anything to say about it. listen to the angst across the country. >> the truth needs to come out. columbus had committed many atrocities and was the author of the transatlantic slave trade. he led and participated in the annihilation of 3,000 indigenous people. >> brian: he also discovered a brand-new world and did something nobody else did and changed the world forever. brad meltser is an author of "i am sacagawea" and "i am ghandi."

columbus, not credible? what did he do? >> listen, it's amazing that we're talking about this today. and you know that i wrote these books because i wanted to give my kids real heroes. i was tired of them looking at reality tv stars and people famous for being famous. as this columbus day is closing, i've never seen, brian, so much venom spewed back and forth by both sides. we fight as americans all the time, but not like this. and what i'm seeing is, we're playing this game over and over again. it's us versus them. we're right. they're wrong. this issue about columbus is amazing. it's great to celebrate christopher columbus and the idea of exploration. is it also true that because of

him when he came here that it led to the genocide of an entire people? yes. those two things can be true at the same time. this is a nuanced argument. and the world doesn't want new answer we have to listen to each other. that's how we'll figure it out. when my daughter was dealing with this issue in her class. i said, what did they say? well, one side wants indigenous people day and the other side wants columbus day. it's a hard, complex argument. my 12-year-old can figure out that's he's complex. >> brian: nobody's perfect. people broke through a time and lasted forever for a reason. they did things that nobody else did. columbus is not perfect. >> that's right. i always say in the books, why did you do "i am george

washington?" he was a slave owner. if you want perfection, only god's perfect. i want it show my kids what they're capable of. you have to tell the full story. that's what people are trying to do. i'm so convinced if we listen to each other we're better off. i issued an ice cream challenge. if you go out and ask someone from the opposite side of your political views and ask them out for ice cream. i'm not talking about someone violent or a nazi or putting yourself in danger, but the first 100 people that take a picture, i will send you a gift certificate for $10 to pay for your ice cream. if we talk to each other, we'll realize that we want a better america and we want to celebrate decency, generosity and exploration that we know is so vital to this country. >> brian: juan williams and sean hannity want to take you up on that challenge and you better

have the cash. >> i know juan well. >> brian: 98 more and you're off the hook. it's harder to take a man like ghandi and woman than sacagawea to a children's book than right autobiographies. and you do it. >> we have to be better than what angers us. >> brian: you always have to get the last word. back in a moment. i got it. that college experience that i had. the classes, the friends, the independence. and since we planned for it, that student debt is the one experience, i'm glad she'll miss when you have the right financial advisor, life can be brilliant. ameriprise
