decade that had nothing to do with his limited role, very short role in the trump campaign. what is that about? does that mean mueller did a no knock search words into his home, came up with evidence that had nothing to do with russian collusion but had to say i can't just not invite him for this and that is what we have here and a lot of pundits are saying this is the first indictment, i think it is the first and the last. i don't think there will be any more, there are no fish on this i think that because everything has been unsealed. papadopoulos plea deal. heather: what about that? >> my opinion on it, papadopoulos was taking up space. he didn't have a real role in the trump campaign. he lied about something he did not need to lie about, it was not illegal, got a slap on the

wrist, maybe offered some information that could have been helpful. heather: maybe he was wearing a wire at times. >> if he were, where are the rest of the indictments? there was no evidence -- heather: they never took him up on these meetings suggesting they could take place between donald trump and russian officials. that completely fell flat. >> there is no underlying charge in his plea deal as part of it is you can't talk to anyone who was involved in the campaign so i think again there is no there there and i don't see any other indictments coming down the pike. heather: tony podesta resigned from his company, changing the name. is that indication something is coming? >> people don't just step down from their companies for no reason. it is not a coincidence it happened the same day these indictments came out.

number 2, his company is named in the indictment, we know there are going to be connection and one smart thing he it is the equivalent of leaving the party without saying goodbye to the host, let me leave now while all the media is on paul manafort and that is what he did and that is where there might be more. heather: we will bring you back. all right, we have lots of energy, thank you so much, appreciate it as always, 20 minutes after the top of the hour, jihadis want their country to fight on battlefields of syria returning home to taxpayer-funded housing. the new plan to bribe terrorists to keep them from carrying out attacks. disgusting new campaign that you

words from a doctor: stage 2 breast cancer. i have three little kids, my baby's seven years old - i can't have cancer. we really wanted a cancer team, that would

care about not only my cancer but you know, how is my husband doing through all of this? and what about your three kids? so we thought that we would travel to cancer treatment centers of america and see what they had to offer. i think the hope for us came in the form of knowing that these doctors were experts, and that they would help us decide the best course of action in the hopes of beating it. so when amy came to us, the first thing we did was discuss her case with the surgical oncologist, the radiation oncologist, the genetic counselor and came up with a treatment plan. the plan for her was to begin with preoperative chemotherapy, thereafter proceeded with surgery. one of things that we loved about ctca was that they give you a series of options. and you do what's best for you. depending upon what decision she makes with her surgical oncologist, we then know what to offer as the plastic surgeon and reconstruction team. dr. fernandez was wonderful.

he said it's up to me to do what's best. it's about giving her options where amy has all the information to make a decision best for her. rather than one treatment fitting all, it is a personalized approach to cancer therapy. we have so many tools. this is what attracted amy to our center all the way from new york. cancer is what they deal with everyday. these were people who are experts in their field. and for us that was the best choice. we left the hospital on day one feeling like, this is going to be okay. we're going to beat this and this is the place that's gonna help us do it. that feeling is priceless. learn more at cancercenter.com cancer treatment centers of america. appointments available now. heather: welcome back to "fox and friends" first democrats

donald trump, this is the irony, of all the democrats involved in this framework during a democratic administration it was supposed to be about trump. this is where democrats once again have not just let their base down but misled them, lied to them. they know what it is like to be misled. democrats were expecting is this huge thing about trump and they were going to get them and that is not going to occur. i think there will be more indictments, mike flynn had an illustrious career, an awful situation for him but he has been involved in some shenanigans, that will come up and mister podesta will find himself, he is behaving as though he expect something to happen. >> we were talking the end of the week before this information leaked out, talking about democrats and russian collusion, the impacting of them. now we have this happen, the

timing of all of it. >> no matter what happens democrats are always trying to move the narrative to be against trump. >> also towards mueller himself. >> i agree with general kelly. we need to let the legal framework play out the president will. and also, a lot of democratic supporters, the fact is even when you look at the indictment regarding mister manafort it is remarkable he amount of money involved with tax evasion and money laundering and fraud and this is what tony podesta has to worry about. there seems to be some comfort in the indictment and what special counsel is doing regarding democrats. heather: as it continues to unfold we have midterm elections coming up, democrats need to be

can there and how this will impact them and this statement from ohio, we don't have a lot of time around here talking about vladimir putin and james comey, i am frustrated by what comey did, but that is what we talk about, we will lose again. >> the american people care about the issues, they want their future secured, care about their families. through this process the democrats have continually lied. we find out a lot of this has been deflection on the president was americans resent the attempt to harm the president because that harms the nation. people want to get down to business and democrats don't know how to do that and we are seeing this unravel. on my twitter people saying your guy, donald trump is all of our guy is going down.

this is serious business, the fact is all of these politicians the last 15 to 20 years. heather: we need to know how that dossier was used. >> on that regard the democrats have to face the truth and gather themselves when it comes to what the future is going to look like involving the white house. heather: with a smile. the region's out the leader fleeing the country, hearing rebellion charges. with a look at international headlines. following this story closely for us. >> the question is are they retreating or regrouping? that is the plot from barcelona

indirect ones somehow to materialize. true or false? >> i think it is false. i say that because the automatic fallback, talking about tax reform, to say the rich are going to benefit, they are not paying their fair tax but the office of management and budget came out with a report last week that the top 20% of wage earners are paying 95% of the federal income tax right now. that is more than their fair share. only 5% of the tax base being paid by 80% and half of them don't pay any. >> how does that benefit everyone? >> the rich are paying less, if that is the position that will be taken although we don't know that because the plan hasn't been finalized. heather: everyone has an opinion. >> we will know on wednesday when the plan comes out. the automatic thought process is
