tv   Happening Now  FOX News  December 12, 2017 8:00am-9:00am PST

8:00 am
anif you've got a lifee. you gotta swiffer >> that is it for us. she is unbelievable, and inspiration for many. "happening now" starts right now. >> jon: fox news alert, boaters at the polls in alabama, and any minute now, roy moore is expected to cast his ballot, a special election the whole country is watching. hello, i am jon scott. >> melissa: and i am melissa francis, in this election, who will base into the senate chemical will be democratic doug joins or roy moore , the rubber culligan accused of sexual misconduct by multiple women. >> jon: they are expected to vote after gathering support on
8:01 am
the trail. >> we talk about draining the swamp, it's difficult to drain the swamp when you are up to your neck in alligators. i want to make america great again. with president trump. i think it is time we say no more to putting people down who we say no more to treating people as second-class citizens. it is time that we say no more. >> jon: joining me now, daniel halper, contributing editor as we await who is arriving shortly to do his voting, daniel, we heard him channeling the president, make america great again. president trump supported luther strange in this race. the center appointed to fill jeff sessions seat, and now after strange loss in the
8:02 am
primary, he has been supporting moore. will that be enough to put him over the top? >> clearly, roy moore is hoping. roy moore, that is is closing argument, he is hugging president trump hoping it will carry him across the finish line. doug jones, is trying to make a race more about human decency. those are vastly different arguments, and clearly the voters in alabama are deciding today which when they find to be more persuasive. >> jon: what are the keys to this race? it is my understanding that doug jones is banking on a huge african-american turnout, but it is hard in a off year or off month election to generate the kind of support, isn't it? >> traditionally, but this has been a nationalized election with a lot of outside money point and, i could change the result of the race. it is also the case that doug jones is hoping those will be a repressed republican vote.
8:03 am
normally vote for republicans, but roy moore is a bridge too far, and i'll either vote for us before or right and somebody else or stay home. the fact that we are talking about this election and taking it seriously shows that some ways, democratic is way over performing, it is alabama. very republican state, republicans shouldn't run away with it. the fact that democrats are still at the finish line, if you are a democrat, you have to be pretty happy. >> jon: the polls have been confusing up into the election, but donald trump won the state 62-34 in 2016. the fact that roy moore is wrapping himself around trump, and the president is issuing him a full throated endorsement, should that not be enough to carry moore across the finish line? >> clearly, he is hoping it is.
8:04 am
if president trump was on the ballot, no question he would win, but he is in. roy moore has accusations against him, and has not made a compelling defense of his own case, and president trump, he fought to the very end. he was on tv. he had rallies in his own election over the last week. roy moore has gone silent pit last night's rally was a very rare thing. he has not shown his face. he scared of the press. very different personality than president trump, and clearly has the supporters, but it has not -- as a totally different feel than president trump did it, and i was a surprise when mick as well. you have to give the benefit to the republican going in. i know the fox news polls has doug jones up by 10, some have closer. by virtue of being a very red state, but i think a lot about comes and a lot of them will be surprising. we went daniel halper, we are still awaiting his vote, roy moore
8:05 am
vote, somewhere in the screen he will be appearing. thank you. >> when we hear of an attack in the subway, it is incredibly unsettling. let's be also clear, this was an attempted terrorist attack. >> melissa: new information about the new york bombing suspect, akayed ullah, now charged with several counts including supporting terrorism. security remains tight around manhattan, one day after the rush hour attack, rick leventhal is in new york city. what is it like where you are? speak out most -- >> a criminal complaint by the attorney office, the radicalization began more than three years ago in 2014 and yesterday morning on facebook, the suspect wrote, trump, you failed to protect your nation, and because of that man's actions, the suspect actions, we
8:06 am
have seen increased security, not just here in the city, but also in the state. the governor ordering at the national guard to join troopers and local police to script bridges and tunnels and other mass transit hubs, insecurity is tighter here at the port authority as well. the mostly ineffective terrorist tech was carried out yesterday. disrupting activities across the city. the suspect, akayed ullah, was arrested here at the scene at seven: 27:00 a.m. after minutes trying to blow himself up in a pedestrian tunnel. he still in the hospital where he is recovering from his burns and laceration wounds that he strapped to his body with velcro and zip time. the five criminal counts against him that were found according to the criminal complaint included using a weapon of mass destruction and bombing a place of public use. all we are expecting to hear more.
8:07 am
>> it is not as easy as these instructions make it out to be which is a good thing. if you look at what he attempted to make that bomb out of it when he attempted to make it into, it did not function with the force and power that the recipe intended. i think what we saw yesterday it was something that could have been far, far worse. >> the consensus is, we got very lucky. but the next time, we may not be so lucky, and it is clear that this kind of attack can be carried out pretty easily. authorities remain on high alert here, melissa, and we should learn more about the suspect and his actions and the tools that use to make that bomb i at a ns conference this afternoon. >> melissa: we look forward to that, rick leventhal. >> jon: a deadly explosion at a natural gas plant, a massive
8:08 am
fireball. what caused this class? more on the story we were just telling you about, information on the new york city terror suspect could he came from bangladesh several years ago. what the feds announced about the immigration policy that allowed him to enter this country. >> what i worry about is isis sent a message two weeks ago, we will see you in new york for christmas soon. we know that they are directing targeting attacks around the christmas season, not only here in new york, the number one target. accumulations up to 8 inches... ...don't know if you can hear me, but [monica] what's he doing? [lance] can we get a shot of this cold front, right here. winter has arrived. whooo! hahaha [vo] progress is an unstoppable force. brace yourself for the season of audi sales event. audi will cover your first

8:10 am
8:11 am
spee >> jon: gas supply hub, the blast seems to be -- and killed one person and injuring nearly two-thirds and others. they also set off a fire that was quickly extinguished. please on twitter say, that
8:12 am
explosion was a technical cause, but did not elaborate. >> melissa: breaking right now in the new york bombing suspect with the feds wrapping up a news conference amid concerns about how akayed ullah came into the country. through chain migration, which makes visas available to certain family members of citizens, and something that president trump long criticized. spee got the president as proposed ending chain migration , that means welcoming the best and brightest in turning away the terrorist, gang members, and criminals. >> melissa: joining us now, at the nypd counterterrorism division and in a safe, let me ask you quickly about migration before we get into the nuts and bolts of this. we are learning that he was
8:13 am
radicalized after he got here. do you think the immigration, migration question is relevant? speak what they're going to do us harm, but what this individual, he would've passed those checks and had gotten into the country anyway realistically. he probably got radicalized here digitally online. >> melissa: one thing i heard people suggested last 24 hours, it is so hard to find people who are radicalized and interested in doing harm the country. one of the best places to look are at mosques, and it makes people uncomfortable. as an investigator, do you think that it's a lead that needs to be followed? >> i think you need to look at everything, the local contacts in the community that may radicalized individuals, but the internet age is radicalizing people more, and an area we need to get into an attack more of the local level, because what you find out with this
8:14 am
individual in the past, there getting radicalized in the internet, video messaging and such. >> melissa: what do you do then? if a huge interest in a lot of these videos, obviously it can be tracked what you're looking and watching, and saying, but how you differentiate from someone who is angry at someone who will actually take action? >> great question, that is if you do know that is happening with an individual, it might just be a knock on the door and asked, we understand people's rights to free speech and first amendment, but if it is crossing the line into criminality, which is what we see in these cases, it takes time, it is something that the law enforcement and struggling with. the evolution of the internet. when i started in terrorism, they did not have this. they were getting radicalized at a local level. they may trip overseas to become a radicalized, and summoned on facebook or on the computer in their becoming radicalized. >> melissa: if you spoke to someone and they were determined to do what they're going to do. there is a chance that people around them see coming in and
8:15 am
maybe have the opportunity to watch a little closer and say something to you if they know someone who is clearly being radicalized to make to think that is unrealistic to expect people to do that? >> melissa: when i was with the police department, we engage the community, what ice to say, we are not here to see gary. we want to empower you with knowledge and let you know about the threat. so if you do see something like this, make a call and let us handle it. i was to come at community and their neighbors and all those people are big part of any terrorist program. this individual yesterday, i'm sure did some odd behavior, if he had got that call, he may have prevented this from happening. >> melissa: one of the things to take note of, how the attacks have changed from something very sophisticated from 9/11 to something very crude and easy. why is that meaningful? >> melissa: it is hard for law enforcement to find this individual. we can attack groups, we know what the people are, it all the planning into a large attack
8:16 am
give them a bigger opportunity to make an mistake that we can season. they may be radicalized to ande up one day and make a crude device. >> melissa: great information. >> jon: president trump is a lawyer for a new special counsel, what he wants investigated and how it's connected to the current russia probe. we're live at the white house with that. plus, the fbi busting a teen terror suspect. the reason he was arrested and why his neighbor say they are surprised. >> this is shocking to hear a teenage boy wanted to harm other people like that. i think it is a sign of the times, i guess
8:17 am
8:18 am
8:19 am
8:20 am
>> jon: this morning, a texas teenager is facing terrorism related charges. he is accused of trying to help isis and distribute instructions on how to make bombs, court documents show the 18-year-old also planned to go overseas and fight for the terror group. he faces up to 20 years and dominic in prison. >> we have the story of the doj officials wife on the trump dossier and we are out about this, is in the shocking? >> it reads like a novel. you can hear these things, no way could possibly be true, and then you find out it is true, it is everywhere you scratch, you find more swamp. >> melissa: it is amazing. the president trump legal team for a special counsel election after senior department official was demoted when his link to the research firm behind the anti-trump dossier was
8:21 am
discovered. john roberts has more. boy, this is a tangled web. >> yes, the revelations just keep coming on, and i spoke to jay a part of his team, is about 715, he told me, these new revelations about others connected to our very, very troubling. a little more detail, bruce or was demoted by the department of justice. he was the associate deputy attorney general, but was moved out of that position after was discovered he had contacts with people involved with the dossier and met with glenn simpson, the founder of fusion gps which commissioned the dossier, it was also revealed that speech when he's wife worked for fusion gps.
8:22 am
jay sekulow told fox news, these revelations warn the appointment of a special counsel to look into all of this, also making it clear that he is not questioning in any way, shape, or form the moore investigation whether they investigate. he wants to separate these two things to him say it has nothing to do with it. is it legal counsel takes aim at the special counsel, the president is lashing out against kristen gillibrand after she tweeted that the president should resign over allegations of sexual impropriety. yesterday, for women hood made accusations against the peasantry in the election campaign came out to demand a congressional investigation into all of this. the president tweeting at senator gillibrand, lightweight senator kristen gillibrand, a funky for chuck schumer and somebody who would come to my offer begging for campaign contributions not so long ago and would do anything for them is now in the ring fighting
8:23 am
against trump. very disloyal to bill and crooked, it took a nanosecond for senator gillibrand tweeting, you cannot silence me or the millions of women who have gotten off the sidelines to speak out against the unfit and shame you brought to the oval office. if that was not enough, senator elizabeth warren jumping into the freight, tweeting, are you really trying to bully, intimidate, and slut-shame senator gillibrand? nevertheless she persisted. she will make for a very interested white house briefing at 2:00 this afternoon. at the same time, all this is going on, the president trying to make the term towards tax reform. a big speech he's going to deliver tomorrow afternoon as a closing argument to encourage republicans in congress to halt tax reform. it is likely that the conference
8:24 am
committee could come up with a final version tomorrow. the president tweeting, consumer confidence at an all-time high along with the record high stock market, unemployment, to 17 year low. make america great again. passing tax cuts, and looking good. the white house believes the president next week will have a bill on his desk that he can sign and plummeting tax reform, but all this other stuff is going on today. oh, my gosh. >> melissa: it is amazing, because your head is swirling, but i do not want to rush past the fact that we are now hearing that one of the investigators demoted, his wife worked for fusion gps, which speaks to the question of, was this fake dossier used too illegally perhaps spy on a political opponent. that's a really big deal. it's a new revelation, it should not get lost in all the other huge news you have for us you have your work cut out for you, my friend. >> every day is like six flags
8:25 am
and buckling into the superman right. make sure everything is town tight. >> jon: the accused new city bomber came to the u.s. illegally on visa program for the relatives of citizens. what will this mean as the trump administration pushes for major immigration reform. plus and southern california, it is man versus nature. thousands more homes threatened by a massive wildfire, can crews get the upper hand on the largest wildfire california has ever seen? >> from 1-10 plus. it was 100-foot flames
8:26 am
8:27 am
8:28 am
8:29 am
speak to the impact of a dangerous southern california, the thomas fire coming of the fifth largest ever in the state, and thousands of firefighters are trying to ct moves closer to santa barbara. >> the fire is burning down, but it is in thick terrain, and i firefighters are having a hard time getting to it. that is why we have to use the helicopters. >> melissa: adam housley is an company of los angeles. >> we are keeping these maps pulled up, because at the end of the northern california fire is when the fire's coming towards the end and making headwind, the
8:30 am
smoke sets in and envelops communities, that's what happened behind me. you cannot see the hillside today. the good news, when we came here this morning, there's very little flames. a couple of spots again firefighters are very cautiously optimistic. 30% containment, but the smoke is completely brutal as it develops an ash comes down like snowflakes all around. you walk on the sidewalk, you will see in some cases, an eighth of an inch of ash covering everything. plants, sidewalks, businesses, homes. meantime, the firefight continues. fifth largest in the state, the thomas fire, chewing up agers the mike akers, 200,000 acres, about 800 buildings, 200 were damaged. in the last few days, they have not lost any. as the good news. this last blanket of fire, moves into santa barbara county, 30 miles from where this fire started a week ago. they have not lost any buildings the last couple of days. burning out these wild lands, just chewing up areas that have
8:31 am
not burned in more than 100 years, allowing for this ash to come down and sit here in the area. obviously, extremely hazardous air conditions as they make the head way. good news, melissa, it cleared up a bit. data helicopters and planes in here, big cc ten, stopping the flames. as he talked about yesterday, there were very confident coming into this morning, and confidence continues to grow as this fire continues to slow down and for the most part, be knocked down. really, melissa, the idea is to get all the last of these active flames out and continue that line around the fire. when they say 30% make contain, they have only been able to get around 30% of the fire. that does not mean 70% is still burning, and literally walking around around the containment and it should there's nothing still smoldering. those cautious optimism here, but a lot of people dealing with smoke and will for a number of
8:32 am
days to come, even with this thing is totally out. >> melissa: adam housley, thank you. >> jon: the attempted suicide bombing in new york city yesterday morning sparking new calls for immigration reform. the white house wants to shift to a merit-based system and away from things like chain migration. that is how the accused terrorist gained entry into the u.s. edit 2011. listen. >> we know that the policy is for a chain migration, and if his policy had been in place, that attacker would not have been allowed in the to come into the country. >> jon: >> jon: terminal, formef of staff informant legislative policy director and cofounder of "third way." i want to start -- chain migration and diversity visa
8:33 am
lottery program are at the center of this question. in the attacks have been tied to the diversity lottery. the home depot truck driver, who ran over so many people on the website highway, he was a diversity lottery participant. this guy, although he came as a result of having family in this country, the family got here through the diversity lottery. are democrats going to stand up and say that there is still a legitimate reason to have the diversity lottery? >> in 2013, there was a bill that reached the goal line and fumbled at the goal line that would have eliminated diversity lottery coming changed the chain migration, stopping ullah from getting in here, and the far right got its claws on the thing, and they killed it. this bill was tough on the border, fair to taxpayers, practical and not ideological it
8:34 am
would have solved some of these problems. yes, something needs to be down. it will involve some compromise come up with the right wing has to play along with this too. they killed it last time, it was a very bipartisan bill. it should have passed. >> jon: josh, give us your take. was it the right that killed the bill? >> the immigration issue has been fumbled around by both parties for the last decade, and jim is right, there has been bipartisanship as we look at chain migration and diversity lottery, but the most important part, we have a bunch of democrats in the house in the senate that are threatening to shut down the government at the end of the year over the doca program. with bulimic immigrants to enter under the doca program. it seems to me that if there is still bipartisan ship, it was a place where we can do a deal, step aside from the funding fight and perhaps talk about the chain migration issues,
8:35 am
diversity lottery and other, and the daca program, and perhaps we can have accommodation. >> jon: jim, that democrats say, no daca, is not an issue that there's going to be any horse training. we want to deal with daca all by itself and not any other immigration issue. politics is all about horse trading isn't it? >> president trump made up a promise with chuck and nancy, and we'll see if he backs out. immigration, if it ever gets done, there will be a lot of horse training done, and politicians will talk about -- we will have a firm position. i can tell you about 2013, the ball got fumbled at the goal line, and it was the right wing that killed it. we need to get the ball back and punch it over the goal line. it was the tea party wacky doodles. >> jon: here's what the
8:36 am
president said, i tweet saying, today's attended mass murder attack and in new york city highlights the urgent need for legislative reform to protect the american people. when the american people here that we are opening our borders, not necessarily to people who want to come here, not necessarily people who are bringing tremendous skills, josh, but they would make this lottery, and it allows them to come to this country. doesn't that open the door? they do not have a dream for a job or career, but just want to get into the united states? >> our economy is much different than when the programs arose. you cannot enter the united states without a skill set and hope to have a milk mide
8:37 am
classes life. we need a merit-based immigration system, but to jim's earlier point, it doesn't matter whose fault it was that the immigration bill did not pass in 2013. what matters now, you have lawmakers that can adjust aside from bipartisanship what is a very clear and present danger, and the president is absolutely right. are they going to work with him or not? it appears that chuck schumer and nancy pelosi are not. >> jon: what is take, jim? things happen, but now is a different time. >> i agree. now is a different time. chuck and nancy seem to have a deal with president trump. jeff sessions made them back away from that deal, and so did john cornyn. the president has not been a great partner on this. yes, something needs to get done on immigration. i think a great place to start is a 2013 bill that democrats had to give a lot on. republicans had to give a lot on, he made it to the senate in
8:38 am
a very bipartisan way, and in the tea party got its claws on it, and ripped it to shreds. that is a wonderful place to start could get rid of the diversity visas, some of the chain migration, move more towards a merit-based program. we have an immigration bill that was tough, fair, practical. >> jon: when i go back to the earlier question, is there anyone in congress, josh, that wants to defend chain migration in the diversity visa program? >> they do not want to address it either. this is the point, it bipartisan frustrates the american people. what happens and who cares in 2013 and the history of immigration debate. we have two problems. we have a daca problem and a chain migration might diversity lottery in that kind of problem. let's fix up both problems. i don't understand why anything else is relevant. take it out at the end of the government shutdown, do not frighten the american people with shutting down the government over daca recipients. to get out of that comic ticket
8:39 am
to the first part of the year, deal with both of these problems like an adult, and maybe we can solve a problem for the american people, wouldn't that be a novel idea? >> jon: thank you. >> melissa: can kim jong un be reasoned with despite rhetoric and missile test? entire towns underwater as rivers burst their banks. the latest on the wrecked resca historic part of europe my bladder leakage was making me feel like i couldn't spend time with my grandson. now depend fit-flex has their fastest absorbing material inside,

8:42 am
>> jon: a fox news alert, we take you to alabama, where roy moore is arriving to cast his ballot, and he is doing it in a most unusual way, on horseback. this is the same candidate who once pulled out a pistol on stage to show his support for the second amendment. there is the candidate and presumably his wife behind him, both riding in on horseback to vote. doug jones, democratic opponent, voted earlier today in a conventional way, i did not check, but i believe he arrived by automobile. doug jones in alabama -- if nothing else, melissa, he's getting a lot of tv time, because it takes a while to arrive at the polls.
8:43 am
>> melissa: that is a nice looking pace. i like that horse a lot. a little startled by all the photographers, standing in fron front. >> jon: this is happening live. the photographer is moving to get a little bit closer, and that is why his camera or her camera is aimed skyward, and there is roy moore having this -- dismounting from his steed, and casting his ballot, presumably for himself. >> melissa: you want to tie him up to the fence, because you do not want him to go away. >> jon: the horse is probably very uncomfortable. surrounded by media sharks. we were told the signal might be a little dodgy, and it appears it is, because the camera and seen has frozen. that's a sign that the connections are not the best. >> melissa: it was all risk to see it. getting off the horse and going to vote. you do not see that in new york or in california.
8:44 am
>> jon: nonsense mcleod was on tv, and i was before you were born >> melissa: well played. thousands have been forced from their homes by floodwaters into historic italian towns. crews using helicopters within days of rain's causing two rivers to burst over the banks. this is video and northern ilion commit >> could the trump administration have a rare chance for diplomacy with north korea? in today's "wall street journal" arguing that a window is opening right now that despite an increasingly ominous public atmosphere, create watchers actually see a moment of opportunity, fleeting monk perhaps at hand after a flurry of activity in the first half of the year, the pace of nuclear and missile test by north korea
8:45 am
has slowed considerably in recent weeks. joining me now, the writer though for "the wall street journal" ." you see a window of opportunity for one of the science? >> it starts with what you mention, a slow down since the summer and the provocative activity in north korea. the north koreans estate 23 different missile tests through august, there has only been three since then. the latest one being at the end of november. that slow down cools of the political environment a little bit. moreover, it may well last for a couple more months, because traditionally if you go back to the mid-'80s and look at the pace of korea provocative action, they tend to slow down in november, december, gender, february, and pick up again in the spring. you see here the possibility that there may be less provocative activity, and opening for diplomacy. they may be extended, because
8:46 am
they are hosting the winter olympics in february in south korea and paralympics, and the south koreans would like to be quiet during a time. >> melissa: it is staggering that the olympics are coming up despite of what is going on. it is something we've been talking about for a while, and i'm not sure the public has tuned into the fact that all these athletes are going to this area, where it would be the perfect target to cause mayhem. you say interestingly that there is one athlete or to that of qualified to go to north korea, and you think that will be a signal whether or not they do it. >> is not clear that they registered, they are skaters, i did qualify for the olympic games in south korea. interesting diplomatic question at the moment that people are exploring is whether the north koreans will let them go to south korea. that would be a good sign, assign that the north koreans want the olympics to go smoothly. it's also very uncertain whether that will happen. some of the people that said,
8:47 am
you will not know until the day of the olympics opening, because the north koreans tend to be secretive about everything, including this. >> melissa: also, kim jong un has no problem starting and killing his people, so if he sends it to athletes to south korea, doesn't mean he will bomb south korea anyway. >> you cannot be sure about anything with kim jong un. in terms of signal sending, sitting his own athletes to south korea would be a signal. on the other hand, people are talking about seriously the fact of a primitive strike at some point on the road by south korea and the u.s. if there isn't a diplomat a solution. i do not think it is likely that south koreans are going to want to be talking about that sort of thing in february and march. they want the climate to be calm not tense during that period for good international show. >> melissa: do you think that is where we are headachy make you look at diplomacy, it's hard to imagine what diplomacy right now would work. they are dead set on having a nuclear weapon, but is it
8:48 am
something that the rest of the world can really tolerate in spite of what other leaders in the passive side? >> it is a long process, it took him a long time to get here. the argument for diplomacy is pretty simple. if you can have a conversation going, maybe you can stop the north koreans where they are now and then figure out if you can roll them back. by the way, where they are now is probably not as advanced as they like to pretend it is. they have shown they can fire ballistic missiles a long way, but they have not shown yet that they can carry a heavy warhead and have it reenter the atmosphere without disintegrating. definition they can fire such a missile from a submarine, which they would like to be able to do. there is a ways to go before they are fully fledged nuclear weapons power. if you can have a double medic process stops the north korean program where it is, then there are possibilities, and as with the use in chinese appear in the community wants.
8:49 am
>> melissa: so much pressure on china, seems like that is having an impact as they were helping recently, pulling back a bit. >> they are irritated. president xi sent an envoy to talk about getting a conversation going with the u.s. or the international community. it is not clear what came of that. equally interesting, at the u.n. said the top level official into killing income of the north korean capital just last week. that hasn't happened for several years, and there are signs of serious efforts to get a diplomatic track going. >> melissa: thank you. >> jon: the disgrace olympic sprinter in jail for murdering his girlfriend. he got into a fight with another inmate, you cannot believe what it was about. plus, more violent protests in the middle east after president trump's decision to move the u.s. embassy in israel

>> melissa: coming up, top of the hour on "outnumbered," pulls open now in alabama for the senate election, special election that we will have national impact on the balance of power in congress and the president's agenda. for the sexual misconduct allegations against g.o.p. candidate roy moore make a difference at the polls. big day and a big night. plus, the latest and the suspect in yesterday's city terror bombing, and how he immigrated to the u.s. will the policies on chain migration and visas prevented the attack?
8:54 am
