3:01 am
place for now. >> the president is trying to get the congress to make some changes to the deal. >> fox has learned hours intel chairman devon nunes told republican colleagues there is evidence that shows clear abuse of government surveillance programs by fbi and justice department officials. >> another spectacular day for stocks. they surged to new record closes and the best start to the year since 2003. ♪ ♪ tailgate down ♪ small town throw down ♪ pete: saturday morning, january 13th. leland vittert. rachel campos duffy on the couch. you are from new york, right? leland: negative. st. louis, missouri. guys from small towns wear
3:02 am
counsel boots, okay? guys from fancy places have shoes, socks with lines on them. pete: you got me. that means we are bringing small town america to you. leland: throw down on the couch all morning long. rachel: i live in wisconsin. pete: how many people. >> probably about like his town. leland: couple thousand. a little small town in this big town. if you have been watching the media, if your television hasn't exploded yet. pete: the amount of outrage we are seeing across the spectrum about the president's comments regarding the daca deal and immigration and who comes and who doesn't, well, where the left goes is where they go almost all the time on this. they go to the r word, he is a racist. and they can't stop. here is a little bit of a montage of what the democrats in the media were saying yesterday about the president. >> folks, can you debate all you want about the president's recent language, but you cannot debate what
3:03 am
it seemingly reveals about believes. white europeans are good and brown immigrants are bad. >> i called him racist, deplorable, despicable added to what others are calling him moron, ignorant. the united states of america is represented by the most despicable human being that could possibly ever walk the earth. >> i can say now trump is a racist. >> yes, absolutely. >> i can say that now. >> it's disgusting, it's violent, and it's racist. i don't think we need to ask the president whether is he a racist or not. the president's words, they speak for themselves. leland: there is an interesting concept here because the media seems to just love. this it's almost -- if the president was truly a racist, if there was a real issue in america, it would be a terrible thing it, would be an awful thing, but, yet, when you listen to some of these commentators, you saw don lemon when he kicked off his show a couple days ago announcing to the world that the president of
3:04 am
the united states is a racist in his words. he was almost gleeful in how he described it. rachel: well, listen, this is going further because the congressional backed caucus has now said they are going to formally screen sorp the president coming up next week. but also that wasn't enough. they are going further than that. now al green, representative al green with the support of representative maxine waters says he is going to reintroduce the legislation or the resolution to impeach the president. so these remarks have now gone from it's racist you, he needs to be censored and he needs to be impeached over these remarks. pete: that's the level of hysteria they will reach. rush limbaugh does a nice job distilling it down. maybe it's not the president is racist it's that the president is asking all the questions the democrats don't want asked. take the a listen to rush limbaugh. >> he blew the whole thing
3:05 am
up with one question. forget the words used. the question was why do you people on democrat side want to continue to bring people to this country that are not going to benefit this country? why instead do you not want to bring the best and brightest? these people in the media are a bunch of the biggest phony bolognas on this planet acting like they don't talk this way. they think about this way about flyover country as though anybody does think or talk that way is somehow subhuman. bottom line here is that the president of the united states was presented with an absolute rotten deal. pete: precisely the conversation the left does not want to have. who exactly are we importing into our country and how are they doing once they get here. if you listen to the left every single dreamer in this country industry a valedictorian and war hero. listen there are a lot of dreamers doing wonderful
3:06 am
things, the session over that does not translate into a rational conversation about our immigration policies. i mean, the state department issued warnings, ironically on january 10th about haiti and el salvador. this is not an indictment of all the people there this is a recognition that lottery from all the countries around the world may not be the best system. rachel: i love what rush limbaugh pointed out there how the left speaks about conservatives in much the same way. it was peter strzok, this fbi agent who leaked -- who had the email exchange with his lover who said i can smell trump supporters in wal-mart. that's the disdain they have. steve: deplorables. rachel: for conservatives and support they have for donald trump and melting down over the president allegedly saying, you know. pete: these comments. rachel: i'm not going to say them. leland: all the outrage the left is having here we are going to try to impeach donald trump over this or sensor him. they are wasting no time
3:07 am
making political hay. nancy pelosi with a statement oh, now it is time for a clean daca bill. remember dianne feinstein brought that up in that meeting earlier this week with president trump. pelosi wants a clean daca bill trying to capitalize on this. it proves that nothing to them is sacred. everything is about politics. and, the proof there is this: they say that you can't send any of these -- anybody back to these countries, haiti, el salvador, honduras, somalia because it's so awful. if you call it so awful you are a racist. steve: celebrat pete: great point. prove you are not racist by cleaning us a clean daca bill. if they have a spine at all they won't. this self-appointed group of senators deciding what the bill should be where are the conservatives? where are the folks that actually believe in the president's immigration policies. let's get them in the room so the president doesn't have to deal with a deal put in front of him that's no
3:08 am
good. rachel: the president stepped on it he had them cornered earlier in the week in that 55 minute bipartisan meeting where they were actually he cornered them into talking about a solution for daca if you give him the wall, if you give him to chain migration and end the lottery system. he said this and the democrats used it to go now we want a clean daca bill. leland: we will look at a little bit of the tape. rachel: they love talking on the racial grounds. leland: how well it played versus now. democrats look for different distractions whether it's all of a sudden going everything is racist and also other stories they don't want in the media. devon nunez has some sources from inside the fbi and fox news is learning from our sources that nunez is charging abuse of government surveillance by fbi and justice officials. pete, as you pointed out, the dots have been there for a very long time. nunes now sort of putting them together for everybody. pete: we're guilty of what the so-called mainstream media wants to do is obsess over these comments the
3:09 am
president made and not focus on the scandal of the century? i don't know, the scandal, whatever it is, the fact that the obama administration used government agencies to surveil a political opponent. devon nunes, the chairman of the house intelligence committee has now said behind closed doors twice to two different groups that he has seen documents, the fisa warrants themselves that show that it was the obama administration's intention to surveil trump folks using the fisa process. and he intends, in the next couple of weeks to reveal that to all 435 members of the house of representatives so they can make their own conclusion. this is evidence of the worst suspicions many of us have had. leland: can't do what diane feinstein said and lay it all out there. pete: devon nunes has been a hero throughout this process, has been shamed by the left. pushed out of the investigation he has come right back. in racism racism i think he has been vindicated in a lot of ways. what we will see come out at the end of the month may fully vindicate him. pete: absolutely. well, thonel very program about, i don't know, nine
3:10 am
months ago, marla vin in march of last year came on this program. he had been reading open source documents "the washington post" and "new york times" about surveillance. he put it all together before anyone else did. take aism. >> the issue isn't whether the obama administration spied on the trump campaign or transition or certain of its surrogates. the issue is the extent of it they ought to release both fisa court applications where they sought the warrant. the one in the summer and the one in october so we know exactly what they were doing. that's number one. number two, congress needs to see the daily presidential intelligence briefings over the past year or. so those are the beginnings of a serious investigation. pete: this is the moment march almost a year ago when the reporting was about look at all the collusion. the newspapers were talking about the surveillance and fisa courts. this is before anyone realized it was being used to spy on trump for political purposes. now they don't want to talk about it anymore.
3:11 am
rachel: can you imagine the reverse pete though? can you imagine if the bush administration had used their powers to help john mccain and to spy on barack obama during his campaign and possibly even during his administration? it's crazy. leland: you are already seeing the left try to undermine the reporting on this story. you spoke about president obama, speak of him himself. pete: he's back. leland: former president. he is back and already trying to discredit a lot of the reporting going on about this issue. take a listen. >> one of the biggest challenges we have to our democracy is the degree to which we don't share a common baseline of facts. what the russians exploited, but it was already here, is we are operating in completely different information universes.
3:12 am
if you watch fox news, you are living on a different planet. [laughter] [cheers and applause] than you are if you, you know, listen to npr. leland: i don't know about everybody else i think we are all on planet earth. if you are watching this program i think you are are on planet earth. fox has not reached out beyond the solar system. rachel: if you know barack knowe dropping something at the end of the month -- you might want to discredit fox because we will be the only ones covering that. pete: i don't know the exact time stamp of when that aired, he hates fox news because he hates the fact that the left doesn't control the entire narrative anymore just like talk radio. for the longest time whether it was walter cronkite or whoever called balls and strikes they were the truth. now we have an opportunity for the truth to come out thank god and he doesn't like it. without fox news channel or
3:13 am
other outlets all of this stuff gets swept under the rug and never talked about. leland: everybody make a big point about president trump with war media. it was president obama's visors in 2009 treating fox news as a political opponent. clip out with david letterman if you want to watch the whole thing. we want to know what you think what president obama just said. what planet are you living on? let us know friends@foxnews.com. pete: that's exactly right. what are you fired up about this morning. let us know. we are moving on to a few more topics. president trump honoring martin luther king jr. as the media attacks him, asking him if he is racist. of course. alveda king has a response. she joins us next. leland: he wanted to take down a christopher columbus statue because it offended many people. now, new york city mayor bill de blasio wants to spend millions on what he calls good statues, maybe a statue of pete hegseth.
3:14 am
that's what he is talking about. pete: barack obama. ♪
3:15 am
in the modern world, it pays to switch things up. you can switch and save time. [cars honking] [car accelerating] you can switch and save worry. ♪ you can switch and save hassle. [vacuuming sound] and when you switch to esurance, you can save time, worry, hassle and yup, money. in fact, drivers who switched from geico to esurance saved hundreds. so you might want to think about pulling the ol' switcheroo. that's auto and home insurance for the modern world. esurance. an allstate company. click or call. a trip back to the dthe doctor's office, mean just for a shot. but why go back there, when you can stay home, with neulasta onpro? strong chemo can put you at risk of serious infection, which could lead to hospitalizations. in a key study, neulasta reduced the risk of infection from 17% to 1%, a 94% decrease.
3:16 am
applied the day of chemo, neulasta onpro is designed to deliver neulasta the next day, so you can stay home. neulasta is for certain cancer patients receiving strong chemotherapy. do not take neulasta if you're allergic to neulasta or neupogen (filgrastim). ruptured spleen, sometimes fatal as well as serious lung problems, allergic reactions, kidney injuries, and capillary leak syndrome have occurred. report abdominal or shoulder tip pain, trouble breathing or allergic reactions to your doctor right away. in patients with sickle cell disorders, serious, sometimes fatal crises can occur. the most common side effect is bone and muscle ache. so why go back there? if you'd rather be home, ask your doctor about neulasta onpro.
3:17 am
>> mr. president. >> mr. president. >> mr. president, are you a racist? pete: that was april ryan can you hear yelling out mr. president are you a racist. backlash over certain countries immigration. this as the president honors dr. martin luther king jr. day. rachel: isn't he acknowledging the serious problems in those countries and the need for a strong america to address these issues? leland: joining us now with her reaction the niece of dr. martin luther king and fox news contributor alveda
3:18 am
king. good to see you as always. thank you. your uncle fought real racism at home certainly and throughout much of this country and made real change. when everything is racist, when that is the word now that everybody paints everything with that they don't like, does nothing become racist? does it no n. some way short of cheapen what your uncle fought so much to defend against and to stop? >> well, i believe -- by the way good morning, "fox & friends," thank you for being on it with real news and not fake news. pete: we try. >> to answer your question, absolutely. racism is just a word that's being bandied and thrown about and thrown at the president, in my opinion, unjustly. president trump is not a racist. i have been with the president recently quite a bit and when he signed the
3:19 am
legislation making the historic site, historic martin luther king sites in atlanta, georgia a national park, it was introduced by congressman john lewis believe it or not, that's one thing the two of them did together. it took two to do it. i'm so glad the president has done it. but, what is so outrageous to call a man a racist who continues to acknowledge the significant work of dr. martin luther king jr., reverend dr. martin luther king jr. my uncle, in a positive way. and he puts his money where his mouth is he puts his energy behind it. and, in making america great again, you know, perhaps saying that in haiti, and in africa, you know, africa is a huge continent with many nations. that was no offense to the people. a lot of dignity to the people. but the hell holes in that some of their own leaders in arafrica and haiti have taken advantage of them and the area and done a disservice to the people. and, again, rachel, yes,
3:20 am
have a strong america, a compassionate america who can really help nations like haiti and all the african nations, african people are brilliant. haitian people are brilliant, productive and wonderful. and they deserve better. and i believe that president trump, not only understands that, but is making america great again so we can be a big help to clean up some of the hell holes across the world and in our own nation. he is doing a great job with prison reform. and helping those prisoners come back to society to lead productive lives. he said to people on medicaid, okay, you need assistance? that's a good thing, but you need to work as well. how is the dignity of a job? i like all of these. little babies in the womb. can i go on and on all the good things is he doing. pete: so could he. sometimes you have to ask one question and get one great answer. thank you for your time this morning, we appreciate. >> it thank you.
3:21 am
leland: is it even possible colleges becoming more and more liberal with conservatives being shouted down and one professor says the liberal shift is set to get even worse. he'll explain why next. bacterie that in severe cases can lead to hospitalization. it may hit quickly, without warning, causing you to miss out on the things you enjoy most. prevnar 13® is not a treatment for pneumococcal pneumonia... it's a vaccine you can get to help protect against it. prevnar 13® is approved for adults to help prevent infections from 13 strains of the bacteria that cause pneumococcal pneumonia. you should not receive prevnar 13® if you have had a severe allergic reaction to the vaccine or its ingredients. if you have a weakened immune system, you may have a lower response to the vaccine. the most common side effects were pain, redness and swelling at the injection site, limited arm movement, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, joint pain, less appetite, vomiting,

leland: fox news alert as you wake up with us on this saturday morning. a violent member of a white supremacist street gang from tennessee has been captured overnight ending a manhunt for the man who allegedly opened fire on a knoxville police officer. police arresting ronnie wilson in blot county, just outside of knoxville nearly two days after police say he shot an officer in the shoulder during a traffic stop. officer jay williams has been released from the hospital. he's expected to be okay. and president trump keeping the obama era iran nuclear deal alive but warning this
3:25 am
is the last time, despite his open opposition, the president is outlining to pass forward either fix the deal's disastrous laws and permanently block the potential for iran to build nuclear weapons or the u.s. will withdraw. the deal's fate has a mid may deadline. the president arriving in florida overnight as the white house doctor announced he is in excellent health. dr. ronnie jackson says mr. trump's first exam as commander-in-chief as walter reed military hospital went, quote, exceptionally well. dr. jackson says he will give us more details on tuesday. guys? >> than pete: thank you, sir. rachel: a new poll out shows that conservative students are more reluctant than other political affiliations to speak out about politics in class. pete: shocker. one professor is offering a reason why. according to his recent studies, professors in colleges are becoming increasingly more liberal in the last few decades going
3:26 am
from around 45% identifying as liberal in 1969 to nearly 06% in 2013. now they don't call themselves liberals. they call themselves progressives. and it could get worse. here to discuss is visiting assistant professor of economics at barry college philip magness. thank you very much for joining us this morning. first off, why this shift? we all think of higher education as liberal. why are you saying it's getting more liberal? >> right. thanks again for having me. a couple things. if you look at the surveys historically, we have about 50 years worth of data where they have been asking professors a simple question where do you self-identify? is it conservative, moderate? or liberal? and for most of the late 20th century it was a pretty stable ratio, college faculty always tended to lean on the left but they recovered around 40 to 45% for a good 30 years. around 1998, 1999 there was a break that happened. that break saw a rapid acceleration of faculty members that started to
3:27 am
self-identify as liberal it came at the expense -- there was a decline simultaneously not only conservatives but faculty members identify as moderates. pete: why? is that a concerted effort? >> i don't think there is any like design behind it but rather my theory is that it comes from a growth in hiring in certain fields, certain academic disciplines, mostly in the humanities and social sciences that tend to be a bit more overtly political and they tend to lean on the left in higher rates than the rest of the faculty. rachel: could it also be if you were thinking about going into -- become a professor that you decide you don't want to be interest if you are a conservative because you don't feel welcome but you sort of self-select out of the field? >> right, right. i think this is entirely a problem. what you see is -- so, for example, let's take english, the largest humanities, the most recent poll shows that about 80% of edge glicial faculty identify on the political left. if you are a conservative and you want study english where do you go to grad school where you are not going to face a similar time
3:28 am
of ideologically type of position. pete: gender studies departments or women studies departments or minority study departments this niche if you are a conservative i reject the very reason for the pressroom mills of that department so why would you be welcome there? >> it's a very tricky thing. i'm an advocate of viewpoint diversity in the academy. i want a thousand different voices to flourish. i want a thousand different perspectives to be offered. i think students get the best material when they're expoliciesed to multiple different perspectives. the problem you get is certain disciplines seem to be skewing very heavily in one direction or another. this would be true if for whatever reason they happen to skew on the right. it just so happens that segments back academia moved further to the left. this creates unconnect welcomed echo chamber speculation grad students become the next professors that's why i think this trend is going to continue.
3:29 am
rachel: i'm already seeing my high school students self-centering what they write for their teacher. can i only imagine what is happening at the university level. pete: keep screaming into the echo chamber for us. thanks a lot. appreciate your time. >> thank you. pete: well, the media slamming the president for his immigration comments. >> you are melting, anna. >> his buyer life. >> unfortunately we have gotten used to and we have accepted and we know this president is a racist. pete: you are melting. >> she is so unhinged. is the outrage fully warranted? our panel of radio talk show host also be here. she has called for president trump's impeachment many times. now maxine waters is protesting the president by skipping the state of the union. pete: shocker. get this, the winner of last week's $450 million mega millions jackpot is a college dropout, young enough to be your son. rachel: orson. pete: he has a good life

3:34 am
that's like saying well, we don't want y'all around, people, because you are not doing anything for the country. pete: you have think you have seen full melt down mode until you see full melt down mode continuing melt down narrative in the wake of president trump's comment. does everyone in the media share the same outrage? let's get a reaction from our panel of radio talk show hosts. not enough microphones for this crew. host david webb, tammy bruce and the host of steele and unger on sirius xm rick unger. good morning to all of you. thanks for being here. >> not going to have time to talk. pete: i'm not going to try to talk. i will speak with rick, our resident liberal here. are you hysterical about what's happened? >> i don't get hysterical. i'm not sure i can say that look, there are obviously some problems with the comment on a lot of fronts. and andrew and i were talking about it earlier. pete: do you have problem with the comments about the
3:35 am
comments. explicative word is cnn's favorite word right now. >> look, it's something that you certainly have to wish wasn't said because i think the president should have known it would escape that meeting. i am putting a little blame on the leakers. aside from the moral issues and everybody has their own point of view on that. there is a foreign policy issue here. you know, there are parts of subsahara in africa that are the fastest growing economies in the world. people we need to do business with we want our american firms doing business. that coming out will definitely not be helpful. pete: does that matter that context was made in the context of a lottery system. can you separate countries from people, not if you are getting to choose who those people are. >> comment made in the larger construct of who we are bringing in and what we want here in this country. the issue is for the people, whether they are from haiti or anywhere else which bay the way there is now an admission haiti wasn't mentioned. add on because it's more
3:36 am
dramatic. really for the people who have come here from those countries. they are the ones who agree they have left those countries for a reason getting here that dynamic their lives could be better. it's why we have government. they should be having it but the reaction has been really denigrated the nature of why you have those conversations in private in the first place. look, the democrats were getting donald trump to agree with them on daca and certain things. and they turn around and do this. so, it's going -- it's going to be now a problem for the democrats. maybe the president should rethink those kinds of meetings because of this kind of thing happening. pete: how much is the salty language reaction to bad deal the president had. >> it's a reaction to a bad deal and all those other things. i'm going to agree with rick on something which is the leakers are the problem here. look, go inside white houses, close the doors and have you frank talk. the problem is you have got people now who take that frank talk out of the room.
3:37 am
and let me ask the obvious question, what was wrong about some of the things he said? put the explicative aside and look at countries broken down by despotism, war lords and criminal cartels. this isn't about people or landscape. it's about the leadership of those countries, $500 million raised to help haiti, look at the state of this country. democrats are fighting to keep haitians on tps here, temporary protected status. well, if haiti is so great, why do these people not want to run back. the problem is you look at africa where out of 50-something countries, 32 of or so are broken down with islamism, war lords, al shabaab, various forms of strife and they are economically, it's actual tragedy. pete: what if temporary protective status is never temporary? what the president is pointing out these temporary policies eventually slide into being permanent. >> i'm going to put the cherry on this. if you were to sneak that camera into you were west side of manhattan dinner
3:38 am
party and the topic was trump voters, states that went for trump, the midwest, anything between the george washington bridge and golden gate bridge what kind of language do you think those you were west side of manhattan rick you think ungar . >> oh, come on. i've talked with you. >> really? >> you got to be careful here. this is one the peoples trying to deflect this thing. nobody is angry at the president for using a can you sacussword. we all can you say. >> they can't get enough of them. >> they are angry about the context he used in it? >> when referring to haiti? jeopardy question. >> people immigrate to other countries because they think they are going to have a better life. i have got to tell you, i grew up in a town in ohio that everybody used to refer to with the same exact word. >> watch the hands. >> you only got one minute left. >> let me just say that the left isn't angry about
3:39 am
anything, this is an opportunity, they are opportunistic, they see something that's going to help them gain some credibility with their base. they have never cared about this dynamic. it's been the u.n. it's been barack obama that's made the world a dumpster fire, that it's created these problems. they are not suddenly concerned about these regions. haiti has been out there being abused and ruined because. >> by the clintons. >> what about africa? >> global international system. they have nothing that any of these liberals care about. and so it's been abandoned. they don't suddenly care about that. it's all theater. >> the bottom line on this to andrew's point, you have the crew who made fun of it. look at the tea parties and tea bagging which was their favorite word at msnbc they were upset by it now it's all about going after trump. trump literally could cure cancer they would say he created it so he could cure
3:40 am
it. pete: i don't know but, america. i want more of this. we will have you stick around and do round two of this. rick, you are a little outnumbered but we love you anyway. rachel, over to you. rachel: turning now to headlines suspect now is in custody three days after suspects discover the body in a california park. samuel woodward is accused of murdering high school friend blaze bernstein. d.n.a. evidence linking him to the crime. detectives used bernstein's snapchat to track woodward who drew him to the same park where he was found dead. it's still unclear how the student who was home on winter break died. the cdc says flu season appears to be peaking with the disease widespread in every state except hawaii. the rate of hospitalization climbing. flu rates roughly doubling this past week compared to the week before. seven children died last week. bringing the season total to
3:41 am
20. doctors still say the best way to prevent the flu is to get the vaccine despite the cdc expecting it only to be 30% effective. new york mayor bill de blasio convincing the city to commit $10 million to build new less offensive statues. a heavily debated christopher columbus monument near central park will stay but de blasio says the city will add text providing historical cop text. pete: tell what you a bad person he was. rachel: a tribute to native americans is planned as a counter to the columbus statue but no other plans have been announced. the mayor's position on the controversial statues resulted in the relocation of just one after five months of review. the winner of the $450 million mega millions jackpot identified as 20-year-old shane miss ler of suburban tampa, florida. his reaction says it all. in a statement miss ler who is taking the roughly

82-million-dollar lump sum payout saying, quote, i hope to use it to pursue a variety of passions, help my family and do some good for humanity. good for him. those are your headlines. pete: probably a few other things in there. all right. we got to move on to extreme weather with rick reichmuth. good morning. rick: guy, good morning. really big week with weather. floods across parts of california. this is that same storm system moving out across parts of the east. the snow moving. in really warm yesterday across the eastern seaboard. that's all about to change. forecast radar temperatures 42 in new york. 58 in boston right now. by 10:00 this morning 30 in new york. 42 in boston. the cold front is moving through and behind us we have days and days of that cold air coming right back. in take a look at tonight it will be feeling much colder, by tomorrow morning by this time everybody back down towards the single digits. here is the wind chill. that's where the coldest air is and once again it looks
3:43 am

great to see you. >> great to be here. >> thank you for waking up with us. up until sort of the outrage over this behind the scenes stuff inside baseball, there was real policy this week. the real policy being this bipartisan meeting between president trump and not only republicans but democrats as well at the white house trying to get a deal on daca and on funding for the wall. take a listen to the president. >> i feel having the democrats in with us is absolutely vital because it should be a bipartisan bill. this should be a bill of love, truly should be a bill of love and we can do that. leland: we have heard him use that word before, love. how does it work? >> i found this really, really fascinating. republicans gave this an a, independence a and even democrats a b. this move by the president
3:48 am
to bring republicans and democrats together and have us see it live in action was really smart. i don't want to say the word genius because he called it that himself. people are really hungry for everybody to come together and seeing how the sausage was made was something that was really really smart. it was overshadowed in the media by some of his comments later in the week. but people were excited by what he did and he was smart to do it and he should continue to do it. leland: really impressive. i never seen a pool spray of 55 minutes like that. the president was with the prime minister of norway earlier this week. took some questions from the media. one of those questions was about russia collusion and the investigation, whether or not he talked to robert mueller or not. take a listen to the president. >> i can only say this: there was absolutely no collusion. everybody knows it every committee -- i have been in office now for 11 months. for 11 months they have had this phony cloud over this administration, over our government. and it has hurt our government. it does hurt our government.
3:49 am
it's a democrat hoax that was brought up as an excuse for losing an election that frankly the democrats should have won because they have such a tremendous advantage in the electoral college so it was brought up for that reason. >> you can see the republicans a plus. democrats an f. independents though b plus. they believe the president when he talks about russia collusion saying there is nothing there. leland: b plus is better than did i most of my life. so this is the president's continued mantra about daca fix. if you want a daca fix it needs to include a wall. >> i would imagine most people in the room, democrat and republican, i really believe they are going to come up with a solution to the daca problem, which has been going on for a long time and maybe immigration as a whole. any solution has to include the wall because without the wall it all doesn't work. can you look at other instances, look at what happened in israel. they put up the wall. they solved a very major
3:50 am
problem. leland: you can see there democrats as soon as he mentioned the wall, a total cliff it fell off. that they gave it an f. republicans gave it an a. independents a b. republicans and independents continue to support that wall while that's a really polarizing issue for the democrats. leland: see that continuing to play out towards the end of the week as well and through the weekend. lee, thank you very much. >> good to be here. leland: always interesting as well. we have been talking all morning about the outrage over one comment by the president. but is the media ignoring similar comments made by people on both sides of the aisle? we will remind you of some of those coming up. will google's new fact check feature. is it targeting conservatives? kurt, the cyberguy, with facts and fiction, our own fact checker when we come back ♪ homecoming queen

country. rachel: 24/7. pete: what do you say if someone says you are a racist? no, i'm nothing, look at my policies. they are trying to label him without looking at the policies he is pursuing. rachel: right. i would also say they have very selective outrage. this is not the first time a top politician has used language as pete calls saucy. nice midwesterners say that lipsdz is i graham referred to those across our southern borders hell holes. we know obama referred to the african country. a lot of talk about africa country of libya as a blank shell. leland: listen to these sound bites and see if you remember them. there wasn't a lot of outrage then. lindsey graham first recommendation people coming across the southern border live in hell holes. they don't like that. they want to come here. our problem is we can't have everybody living n hell hole
4:04 am
coming to america. 11 million people coming from the southern border come from countries where they can't find work and life is miserable. pete: i'm sorry, was that president trump? where was that guy in the meeting with democrats with the deal that he gave the president which wasn't a good one that didn't include all the funding for the wall and end of chain migration. rachel: according to senator durbin he said he was lecturing the president about having said blank hole and now he said hell hole. pete: i love it when senators sit in confidential meetings and go out and talk about it the way that dick durbin did. rachel: that's the worst part about it honestly, you guys brought it up in your panel in the last hour, but, these are private meetings. i think it was just outrageous that there is no sense of trust. and you can see the end of these kind of meetings. leland: you say this was a private meeting. this was clearly leaked for political purpose. rachel: absolutely. leland: in order to change the conversation as you pointed out, pete, away from this policy and this deal that was put in front of the president to whether or not the president said this and somehow find a way to call
4:05 am
him a racist for calling bad countries bad places. you said those were private meeting. think about what other people have said in public. this was president obama back talking about libya in 2016. libya is a mess. is the president's diplomatic term privately he calls libya a bleep show in part because it subsequently become an isis haven. it's become a bleep show obama believes for reasons that had less to do with american inat thamerican incompn passivity in the power of tribalism. that other big word i don't know how to say. i would say i have been in libya. i have spent a lot of time there the president of the united states was absolutely right. it is a bleep show there. and did anybody call him racist there? was he anti-muslim because he said it was a bleep show? pete: because i racist when we looked on control in iraq said this place is a [bleep] show. some places are different than this country be honest
4:06 am
about that and evaluate who we want to let come in our country. it's not just barack obama. it's the vice president as far as saucy language his vice president joe biden in 2016 had this to say. >> in delaware, the largest growth in population is indian americans moving from india. you cannot go to a 7/11 or a dunkin' donuts unless you have a slight indian accent. i'm not joking. pete: correction. i said 2016. 2006. was that racist? >> the question is he actually talked about race there that wasn't salty language. he specifically said indian people work in dunkin' donuts and 7/11. if that's not racist what is talking about what people do and their race? pete: it's funny because it's uncle joe. that's how the media looks at it. rachel: vice president biden also said that barack obama was the first clean african-american to run for president. leland: he got a lot of
4:07 am
criticism for that. rachel: wait a minute, when barack obama was asked about that comment barack obama said i don't consider it racist. i consider it factually inaccurate. i mean, again, it's select tia outrage if it's joe biden who says something it could be really racist if it's not racist if obama-likes them but it is if they don't like president trump. pete: forget about comments about other countries, how about comments but, america, we pulled this tape up from our good friend, hillary. >> you can put half of trump supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. [laughter] right? the racists, sexists, homophobic, xenophobic, islamophobic, you name it. leland: here is my question though, if you tie barack obama and hillary clinton together, so is it the fox news viewers who hillary clinton used to refer, to do they all live on another
4:08 am
planet, too? i'm wondering if there is a link there between the deplorables and the other planet? pete: i think so. they would call the planet the trump supporters live on a hell hole or the other version of that word. that's what they would call it because you know what it is? they don't want to have the conversation we are having right now, which is the conversation president trump had on the campaign trail do. we have a country or not? do we have borders or not? who do we let into our country? are we letting the best into our country or have we lost complete control and we don't know who is coming. in the voters see tonight ground. people in gated communities and high rises in manhattan don't see the realities of these terrible policies. president trump has tapped into that. that's the conversation the left doesn't want to have. so what they're doing instead is calling you racist and they are calling him racist because they want to shut it down. there is no reason why the republicans should bend in this negotiation. go back to the drawing board. leland: nancy pelosi wants him to she just put out out now all of the sudden three days after this outrage that has gone nuclear for lack of a better term nancy pelosi putting out a statement
4:09 am
saying now we need a quote, unquote, clean damascus te'o can a bill. we don't need to deal with the wall or anything. putting the republicans in the corner, forces them if you don't do a complete daca bill then you are siding with the racist president. rachel: right. leland: that's their logic. pete: where they go every single time. rachel: always to rachel issues and identity politics issue. leland: takes up so much oxygen from real stories like this. sources telling fox news that devon nunes of the house intelligence community has been talking to members of the house and says he is going to talk to all of them about charges of abuse of government surveillance by fbi and justice department officials as it related to the trump campaign. rachel, you brought up an excellent point earlier. big question. turn this around. what happens if we were in 2009 and 2010 and we were learning about bush government surveillance on the obama campaign? rachel: that would have been racist.
4:10 am
that would have been racist. pete: that's what they would have said. rachel: in this case they don't even cover it turn on the other channels, it's all trump and what he said allegedly in that meeting. it is not about this issue. this is bigger than watergate. pete: i agree with you. let's tell you why this is so important. mark levin radio talk show host was on our program about 10 months ago in march. he said do you know what we need to see? we need to see fisa warrants that will tell us a lot. that's what devon nunes has seen. that's why it is so important. take a listen to mark levin on this program months ago. >> the issue isn't whether the obama administration spied on the trump campaign or transition or certain surrogates it's the extent of it. they ought tree lease both fisa court applications where they sought the warrant. the one in the summer arched the one in october so we know exactly what they were doing, that's number one. number two, congress needs to seat daily presidential intelligence briefings over the past year or so.
4:11 am
those are the beginnings of a serious investigation. pete: mark levin took a lot of heat for that. a lot. so did devon nunes when he went to the white house to look at the intelligence. now devon nunes has seen those two fisa warrants he said privately to colleagues it shows there was a political motive for the surveillance against the trump campaign. it wasn't just russian collusion, it was targeting of a political opponent. think about that targeting political opponent with our fbi and doj. that would be the scandal bigger than watergate. rachel: right. pete: it looks like is he going to rethese documents to your husband and other members of the house. rachel: they will get it. pete: over time and they will be able to draw their own conclusion. rachel: we had that discussion about countries that are dysfunctional this is the kind of that stuff happens in banana republics. pete: good point. rachel: happens in third world countries we may find out at the end of this month we will get proof of that. pete: if you were to turn the channel, which you should not do, would you find any coverage of this. if this was a democrat
4:12 am
president they would call wall-to-wall all day long. this information about fisa warrants, i mean, don't turn the channel because we are going to bring more and we have people that have insights on this on this program talking about it. because everybody is sucking up oxygen about racism and everything else when, in relation, have you got the scandal of the century bubbling below the surface. we are going to stay on it because it really does matter. these type of things matter when there is a police state using police state tax particulars you have got to call it out. rachel: weaponizing government against the people. pete: if you have thoughts on that or who should be the governor of planet fox news email us at friends at friends@foxnews.com. who would you nominate for governor of the planet? we are going to move it on from there. the clintons joining the chorus of criticizing president trump about africa and haiti. are they forgetting their criticism of their foundation has received over their own work in haiti? judicial watch president tom fitton, he hasn't forgotten and he joins us next. leland: she has called for

4:18 am
pete: 500 homes were supposed to be built, $10 million spent properly. i mean real lives affected. >> that's right. we wasted most of the money that we spent on haiti, which was directed more or less by bill clinton himself. the documents judicial watch has uncovered showed that immediately after the earthquake the clinton foundation called up the state department and it looks like subsequently hillary clinton's state department outsourced our haiti policy to the foundation, especially in terms of aid and the problem with the clinton foundation is it was an influence pedaling operation. so it's no surprise that haiti got shafted as a result of bill clinton's machinations and using the foundation not necessarily to benefit recipients of funds, but to help the donors to his foundation and those giving him speaking fees. for instance, one of the companies that gave him a speaking fee, the clinton foundation advocated on their behalf in haiti for

4:20 am
the clinton foundation operated in haiti and the influence peddling that happened that didn't benefit haitians. we spent billions of dollars in aid in the united states. 35 million for the clinton foundation. and it really didn't result in much. and the earthquake was, what, 2010, and those supporters of the haitians here are temporary protected status are trying to make the case they can't go back. well, that proves my point. because the aid didn't help. pete: of course, tom, we do get to feel good about ourselves and clintons get to take credit for things. that's what they got out of it in the moment. >> the problem is the question is did they personally benefit? look, the clinton foundation was hillary clinton's personal political platform to help her gain the presidency. pete: of course. >> let's be clear. that was a vehicle for putting money into the haiti and running hating and the corruption is legion. rachel: thank you for shining a spot line on that. some people might have forgotten as you said the haitians have. tom, thank you.

[laughter] >> you mean you would deck him? >> listen, this guy got in my space, you want to get in my space, i have always said chris, you punch me, i'm going to punch you back twice as hard. leland: that is the democratic governor of virginia. >> former democratic governor. leland: good point. a dear friend of the clintons. richard, to you there there had been a former republican governor, former governor who had said this about president obama circa 2010 you would probably have choice words for him, wouldn't you? >> listen, i think they are referring to the debate where the president was -- where the president was sort of following hillary clinton and that's what they were talking about. i'm not sure i would use this language once again. but once again this is the former governor's feelings. this doesn't take away from the fact that what we saw this week from the president
4:30 am
of the united states was horrific and horrible language, disparaging an entire continent of people. he is the president of the free world. leland: lawrence, is it a problem for the left that they keep having to deflect? i wouldn't use that language but rather, but, but, but. we need to stop this. >> it was wrong. right. exactly. whether you agree with the president's commence or disagree with it people have a right if they want to disagree with it it's still not physical violence. it seems to be a problem with the left that they can't control their hands and their actions they are like little children. >> excuse me, the president of the united states. >> and agreeing. leland: we can't hear either of you guys. >> the president of the united states said, i quote: i can go on fifth avenue and shoot somebody and i would still be elected and we are not having a problem with that? leland: there was a lot of debate about that, richard, frankly there was enormous debate and outrage. >> facts, facts. leland: come on.
4:31 am
actually, let's return to the facts at one point, fellows. richard, lawrence, appreciate it, guys. all right. coming up. >> thanks, leland. leland: is the government abusing its surveillance power to target americans? we talked about this a lot. house intel chair devon nunes says yes. he says he has seen the proof. we are going to talk about that with dr. sebastian gorka. not shockingly, is he furious and wants answers from the obama white house. we will talk about that next. plus, i headed out to capitol hill to find out where democrats stand on immigration reform. well, it didn't go so well. i was not so popular. >> why do democrats care so much more about daca than they do about border security, sir? you won't talk to us at all? can we talk to you for a second? >> i got to catch a plane. amanda's mom's appointment just got rescheduled - for today. amanda needs right at home. our customized care plans provide as much - or as little help - as her mom requires.

4:33 am
she told me about non-insulin victoza®. victoza® is not only proven to lower a1c and blood sugar, but for people with type 2 diabetes treating their cardiovascular disease, victoza® is also approved to lower the risk of major cv events such as heart attack, stroke, or death. while not for weight loss, victoza® may help you lose some weight. (announcer) victoza® is not for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. do not take victoza® if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to victoza® or any of its ingredients. stop taking victoza® and get medical help right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck or symptoms of a serious allergic reaction such as rash, swelling, difficulty breathing, or swallowing. serious side effects may happen, including pancreatitis. so stop taking victoza® and call your doctor right away if you have severe pain in your stomach area. tell your doctor your medical history. gallbladder problems have happened in some people. tell your doctor right away if you get symptoms. taking victoza® with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar.
4:34 am
common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, decreased appetite, indigestion, and constipation. side effects can lead to dehydration, which may cause kidney problems. change the course of your treatment. ask your doctor about victoza®.

4:36 am
chairman has said he has seen these fisa warrants and they are evidence of abuse of government surveillance by the fbi and justice department during the obama administration. there he is right there. devin nunes. what do you know about what he has seen and what it may show? >> well, what i know is that devon nunes is a pit bull. he hasn't given up and sooner or later we will know exactly who was targeting americans for political reasons. pete, this is huge. what happened under the last 8 years means that nobody is safe. you're not safe, none of the fox viewers are safe. when obama was in charge. they used the intelligence community and law enforcement to target people they politically disagreed with the fbi is a very prestigious organization the doj and highest level of the fbi were politicized as weapons by the obama administration and what we need to know right now and this is what devon is going to help us find out is where did the command come from?
4:37 am
was it john brennan? was it eric holder? was it samantha powers? was it susan rice? was it ben rhodes or was it, perhaps, obama himself that used the intelligence community as a political weapon? we will find out. leland: doctor, you laid out a number of names here. and if any of these people did what you are implying that they did, if it was one of these people. that's a crime. unquestionably. >> totally. leland: unquestionably that's a crime. >> absolutely. leland: is there any proof that you have, other than what we have heard from nunes that doesn't mention any of those names? is there any proof before we go accusing these people of a crime of that? >> the relevant authorities and committee also lay out their proof when they have the timing to do so. i'm not a member of the committee. i worked in the white house. i had a clearance, but i'm not going to discuss on live national television what the committee does or doesn't know. i will leave that to devon and then law enforcement
4:38 am
authorities will begin their investigations and eventually people will be charged. rachel: wow, dr. gorka there has been big news on iran. fill us in. >> yeah. so this is amazing. this is the story that, you know, we want to talk about what the president did or didn't say about african countries. in addition to the unmasking story. iran is again a geopolitical front page story or should be. why? s the last administration released more than 150 billion with a b dollars to this regime. we are back at the time for deciding upon the jcp iran deals extension. and the president always has the right instinct. we have discussed this with each other since he left -- since i left the white house. and his instinct is always the right one. this is a bad deal for america. this is a dictatorial regime. we are not about changing other people's countries. this isn't a neocon
4:39 am
administration. but the bottom line here is we cannot further empower this nation, especially because it wants nuclear weapons. so stick with the president's gut instinct. pete: doctor, to push back a little bit there why haven't we torn up the iran deal. if it was such a bad deal that was the promise made, why do we keep recertifying it. >> the swamp, lee land, the swamp. pete: are we talking then bob corker? there are rumors that h.r. mcmaster is for keeping the iran deal. people inside the administration. what gives? >> well, look, i promised the president i wasn't going to attack individual members of his cabinet but you just do the math and you read the unclassified reportage out there. there are bureaucrats, obama holdover who are wedded to this deal. they spent years making sure it happened. there are people at high levels of the trump administration who weren't part of the campaign, who really weren't trump supporters that have taken the kool-aid or drunk the kool-aid of those
4:40 am
individuals. on top of that they are our european allies who sadly make a lot of money out of being able to do business with iran u those are the key issues. the president knows bad for america, bad for israel, bad for security. leland: dr. gorka, appreciate you being here. this proves the point i'm not the only one up here who asks tough questions. it was good to see you. appreciate you rolling with us this morning. >> appreciate it. rachel: newly released fbi documents now revealing the girlfriend of the man who killed 58 people and himself on the las vegas strip occasionally loaded his ammo. the agency did not, however, find any criminal involvement by mary lou danley. the paperwork just filed days after the massacre also unveiling emails from shooter steven paddock about buying bump stocks months before the october first massacre. the devices allow semiautomatic rifles to fire rounds more rapidly.

economists talking about job growth. green is good. red is bad. there is a lot of green on those charts as it pertains to the stock market and g.d.p. growth and job creation. nancy pelosi call all that bread crumbs. >> you know what's interesting about that is the same survey last year actually said president barack obama was actually negative for long-term growth and we can see that because in order to get growth there are really two things that have to happen, monetary policy and fiscal policy. barack obama and his administration wasn't focused on fiscal policy and what that means is deregulation as well as laws to stimulate growth. so you can think about what obama care did, right? it actually stifled investment. you can think about what dodd frank did over 22,000 pages of rules and regulations from an alphabet soup of agencies from the sec, cfp. really stifled and hampered growth. what this president has done is a lot of deregulation and see what the tax benefits did just now. and what nancy pelosi doesn't understand is you

4:55 am
daca deal. >> we didn't create this problem. president trump created this by giving us artificial deadlines on the dreamers. >> isn't border security a bigger deal than daca? is that more a threat to national security? >> they are separate issues. we have been dealing with border security for a long time. we provided funds for border security. i have been to the border. i know. so issues they need. they are not even really part of this discussion as i understand it. >> the president gave a six month deadline. >> so we shouldn't have a deadline on border security? >> this is what they call the jail break. thursday afternoon, senators come right out of that entrance there and then head to all these cars that have lined up to take them to get their flights to head home. so, we wait and see who we can find. senator sanders, can we chat with you for a second, sir? >> no. i have got a plane to catch. i'm sorry. >> you have a plane to catch? senator, why did democrats care so much more about daca than they do about border security, sir? you won't talk to us at all? can we talk to you for a

deplorables on that planet maybe makes that planet a [bleep] hole according to some. i don't know. leland: here's the logic. you follow pete's logic here, hillary clinton says everybody is deplorable who supports trump. then you have got president obama saying everybody who watches fox news lives on a different planet. put it all together that planet is a breep hole. pete: according to them. leland: you be the judge. rachel: maybe it's planet reality coming from a former reality tv star. pete: you say it's planet reality. others say it would be planet racist. leland: if there was that logic if you called something a [bleep] hole because a place has a lot of violent crime and terrible corruption. then you are a racist then just about everybody on the media. take a listen. >> can you debate all you want about the president's recent language but cannot

5:04 am
question was why do you people on the democrat side want to continue to bring people to this country that are not going to benefit this country? why instead do you not want to bring the best and brightest? these people in the media are a bunch of the biggest phony bolognas on this planet acting like they don't talk this way. they think this way about flyover country as though anybody who does think or talk that way is somehow subhuman. bottom line here is that the president of the united states was presented with an absolute rotten deal. rachel: this is the space that democrats want to talk about immigration. they want to racialize it because they don't want to talk about the things that they don't want to do, which is secure the border, end chain migration and also end the lottery system. so earlier in the week, and i know this sounds like eons ago, but earlier in the week i believe that the president
5:05 am
really had the democrats cornered. there was that 55 minute meeting in the white house. pete: all on tape. rachel: all televised and very common sense discussion where the president basically said look, i'm going to give you the solution for daca but have you got to give me the law. end chain migration and you have got to end the lottery system and it seemed like something good was going to happen. pete: that's right. rachel: then the president said these remarks. pete: no, no, no. rachel: allegedly behind closed doors and the democrats leaked it, i think, to change the conversation to race, which is what they are comfortable with. pete: i think you are right. you missed a step. before the president made those comments, these senators presented him with a crappy deal. rachel: that's right. pete: change the visa lottery system or fully fund the wall. now as a result of these comments the left is screaming racism you are totally right about that. now nancy pelosi has said no more deal. we want a clean daca bill. daca only, dreamer bill only, you don't get your wall. which reveals where democrats truly are. they don't want border
5:06 am
security. leland: it wasn't just nancy pelosi. remember in that big 55 minute meeting it was dianne feinstein who said why don't we just have a clean daca bill. democrats know what they want. and as you pointed out. now that the sfertion is about racism, they are trying to pigeon hole the republicans into if you don't support a clean daca bill, well then somehow you must be with the president who is a racist. keith ellison. pete: good point. >> deputy chair of the dnc is sort of beginning this rallying cry on the left. take a listen to him threatening democrats who would be willing to make a deal with republicans. >> that's right. a clean dream act and it cannot be one single politician in the state of pennsylvania who is in a state of confusion about how you feel we're going to make it perfectly clear to all of them on a repeated basis. and, yes, we have a litmus test. >> um-huh. >> if you are a democrat who doesn't like a clean dream act,. >> bye-bye.
5:07 am
>> you are going to have some problems. don't count on me to protect you. you are on your own with that. pete: what was it bye-bye? rachel: this showed they are not just trying to pigeon hole republicans, they are threatening any democrat who might live in maybe trump country who might want to find some common sense, common ground solutions with republicans he is saying you are not part of our party. pete: you got a peek inside the resistance where the base left is. they realize the dreamers are the future of electoral success they don't want a border and don't want anyone working with the president. reminder for the president a guy like dick durbin how think might be having a private conversation with and pushing back in the moment and having a real disagreement instead runs to buddy the fake news media to every microphone is he to scream the president is a racist. this is what you are dealing with the opponents on the left. rachel: you have to wonder why the president could have -- i could have told the president that dick
5:08 am
durbin and the entire democrat party is part of the resistance. why would he let his hair down. pete: i think dick durbin probably mischaracterized his remarks as he said for gain but probably felt comfortable. leland: note worthy the time that john boehner and president obama used to meet and talk. those things never leaked out. in washington. pete: supposed to matter in washington. rachel: trump just said after all this, you know, cure fluflkerfluffle i'm going e everything from now on. the trust has broken down. leland: we have all of this happen. so then have you president obama who shall we say has not made himself scarce as some former presidents have. he now has a message not really for us or for washington but quite literally for all of you. take a listen. >> one of the biggest challenges we have to our democracy is the degree to which we don't share a common baseline of facts.

5:10 am
in his text messages which was can i smell you trump supporters when i go to wal-mart. so how is that different? pete: tell us how you feel about you. leland: so the president told you how he felt about you. how do you feel about him? this is alyssa on facebook saying how does this differ from the name-calling that liberals call out trump for? obama and clinton can calling conservatives deplorables and say we are on another planet and that is acceptable. pete: it's not acceptable and we agree with you. janet on facebook says i'm happy that i'm living on a different planet from you the more that's revealed about the past government, the more shocked i become. leland: we have a lot on the show today about what devon nunes is saying about the government and what he is learning. rachel: we may learn more later this month. i think president obama is probably correct. after all i felt like i was living on another planet during his entire eight years. pete: a lot of liberals said if trump won they would move to canada.
5:11 am

comments as well about things. so, is there, perhaps, maybe a double standard? rachel: joining us now with his reaction is "washington times" editor charles hurt. charlie, nice to see you. >> good morning, guys. rachel: president obama said that libya, an amp infantry can country that by the way he helped ruin, was a. pete: keep piling on, rachel. rachel: what do you make of this hypocrisy in the media? >> what they say is they didn't have a double standard. they would have no standard at all. [laughter] >> i think a big part of it is that they so hate -- they hate donald trump. they are always looking for any way that they can smear him. especially if they can do this sort of double bank shot and accuse him of being racist because he uses salty language to describe some of these country. which i have never been to haiti but it has its share of problems no doubt and el salvador. my goodness if h el salvador

is such a great place why does the state contempt tell you not to go there number one recommendation upon visiting there is to reconsider your decision to visit there. because of the crime and the, you know, everything going on down there. that's the first thing. the second thing is that the press loves a guy like. pete: lindsey graham. >> lindsey graham. thank you. john mccain. if you remember when john mccain was running for president. he referred to the washington press as his number one constituency. they love him because they are always beating up on republicans. and then the last thing, of course, is the fact that you know, in the context of what donald trump said in the white house, you know, he is on the wrong side of the issue as far as the press is concerned. if he is not in favor of amnesty, if he is asking questions about this stuff, then obviously he must be a racist and they must denounce him for using salty language. pete: it's not about the salty language it's about
5:18 am
the tough questions he is asking. if you listen to democrats every dreamer in this country is a valedictorian or war hero. all of them there are questions to ask about dysfunctional immigration process that is largely by lottery or by chain migration instead of merit-based. they are afraid of this debate which they already lost in presidential election so they go back to racial politics and identity politics. >> i think you are exactly right, pete. the thing that i do find very hopeful about this whole debate is the fact that you have donald trump, the president, actually asking the most important question and that is do we want an immigration system that is designed to improve america, make america a better place by bringing in good immigrants who want to be here and who want to contribute to america or do we want to keep an immigration system that is simply a solution to other countries' problems? and to me if we could just focus on that one question, changing that question, so that we're asking, you know,
5:19 am
so the focus is what it ought to be for our immigration system, then that is half the battle right there. pete: picking up, pete, where you left off this is from the daily caller, for every daca recipient that joins the military as we are led to believe so many do, two commit serious offenses. charlie, when there is this outrage that exists about that everything is racist. everything is worthy of impeachment, it seems to then make things so much more difficult to call out when things are racist, when there are real problems, when there are issues inside our government. >> yeah. and if you actually care about those issues, as all decent americans do, it really does do a disservice because as you say, there are real cases of it. and this just kind of cheapens all of it but i'm reminded of, you know, outrageous quote from barack obama that you all just played. you know, talk about a different planet. did you go across the tv

5:27 am
videos i was so appalled and scared what's happening is it seems like there is sort of a viral online challenge that teens and kids are intentionally ingesting tide or detergent pods as a viral stunt. and as a family physician, as a physician it scares me because this could be very potentially dangerous. not only dangerous but potentially life threatening for some people. that's not okay. rachel: some infants have died from eating it, correct? >> you are right. poison control center. two issues going on. one is poison control centers have had tens of thousands of reports of kids around 5 or around 5 exposed to laundry deter sent. rachel: they do look yummy. >> they look like candy. other group ingesting tide pod challenge. rachel: obviously these are attention seeking teens. is this a parenting problem or social media thing. >> i'm going to explain. this i was away on vacation during the holidays and there was a 50-foot cliff about 200 yards away on the

5:35 am
the president has said come to the table. andrew is right, the democrats have had the opportunity to do this. they don't want to do it because it's a wedge issue. you continually pay the paint the party as this, as racist, as zone know phobic. look what nancy pelosi and chuck schumer are doing. look at luis gutierrez, they are leading a narrative, the president wants to lead a solution. he gave it back to congress. that's the constitutional responsibility. that's where it stands and the president frankly he has followed the constitution. leland: newt gingrich had an interesting sound bite about just that issue, david, that you were talking about, the identity politics. we will roll that and get tammy to react. >> over here is a left wing corrupt establishment, which sincerely sees this entire fight as a function of identity politics. over here are the rest of us who are thinking, you know, a lot of these ideas are really weird this is really
5:36 am
the definition of life and death. we are in identity fight which if we win they disappear. if they win we disappear. leland: tammy, quickly. >> i don't think anybody is going to be disappearing here. everybody feels this is existential issue. the fact of the matter is that this blew up on the democrats. they thought this was going to be a bomb for this new republican president in dealing with it. i think president trump has handled it well. he was willing to deal with them. jennifer palmieri at the center for american progress said they have got to be able to deal with this in order for their electoral prospects for this year to be good. they are not dealing with it well. they need it to exist because they can't deal with the other policy issues. in the meantime though they are not really making any headway. they think it's going to blow up up on the republicans, they are wrong. leland: all right. rick, democrats seem to be trying to make some political hay out of this firestorm of the president's comments. we have got nancy pelosi now this morning now saying you
5:37 am
need to do a clean daca deal, really trying to put republicans in the corner. we also got keith ellison out there saying that if democrats don't support a clean daca bill then he is not going to support them. over playing their hand here? >> well, i mean, look, i think we can all agree sitting here there is not going to be a clean daca bill. i do have to say though, i think the president missed an opportunity. the bipartisan bill that was agreed upon two days ago, the one that was taken to the president, the one that he indicated in the morning when he heard the terms that he was favorable to but somebody else got to him in between, that would -- leland: the reporting on that is not all that final. >> well, actually, i have talked to my sources and they are pretty confident about it but who knows. >> why make a bad deal. >> let me finish, let me finish, let me finish. there was an opportunity there and he got his wall funding. there were ail th all the thinge wanted there were things that would resolve the daca issue. i think that was a real
5:38 am
shame that was dismissed out of hand. leland: you are talking about bipartisan deal the senators. you also have to get the house involved in this, tammy as you know from talking to house members that's a little hard. the wall funding here that was in this bill would have basically provided a doorknob for the wall. this was not funding for the entire wall. >> he didn't ask for that he asked for funding to get started. leland: he asked for 18 billion. >> planning and construction over 10 years. >> talk about the dreamers and ceo $26 billion over nine years and nobody breaks into a sweat. but with the wall it's suddenly a big issue. you can't do it. we have got the money. we will find the money. so, you know, there is different ways you can do it through waste, fraud, or different management. that's not going to be an issue. the framework here is the president has an opportunity to make sure that democrats, that the democratic base knows that their leadership has been a fraud. they have never cared about that issue to your point. they could have done it years ago. the dreamer thing for obama didn't have to be an
5:39 am
executive order. if he knew how to govern. leland: there is enormous opportunity for president trump. how does take advantage of this moment. >> first he goes back in time the secure fence act of 2006. and when you look at it by the numbers. deal with the economic argument around illegal immigration criminality, drugs, human trafficking. if it costs 18 billion, let's say it costs 50 billion for the wall but you are spending 300 billion a year as a country on it, you add the security aspect. now you have got economics and security together. democrats are hypocrites. they voted for stronger border security. they voted for physical barriers. they are simply objecting because it's donald trump and they are about to lose their wedge issue because they have attacked republicans and republicans, frankly, have been squishy fish on the issue. now have you got a president who says you want to fight? fine, let's have a fight. secure fence act of 2006. leland: 2006 they voted for it. 2013 democrats voted for it
5:40 am
andrew i was up on capitol hill and chased down some of those senators who voted for this in 2013. democrats who said this was so important to have border security in 2006. and then in 2013. now they are nowhere to be found on this issue. some democrats say they are willing to go shut down the government over that. over this, over daca. nancy pelosi alluded to that. that this is going to be the wedge issue. is that a win or a lose for republicans? >> it's a lose. have you ever -- no for republicans. >> for republicans it's a win. have you ever seen democrats threaten to shut down the government until the v.a. is fixed. when is the last time the american citizens got a carve out in federal law like they want to give to the noncitizen? the democratic party seems to be constantly giving priority to the noncitizen. we are the people. the citizenry. now, if we want to talk about a piece of legislative action that is passed through congress, signed by the president. constitutional? that's great. that's not what we are talking about here. leland: all right, gang. great discussion as always. and as you guys all point

there is a new report out saying army is not finding enough people fit to consume into the army. >> i don't think you are representative of the whole nation. the recruits we get are fully capable once they arrive basic training and being able to do everything the army is meant to do physically and nonphysically. pete: that's good to hear. when i was in the army you did pushups, did you situps and you ran two miles. the army is taking a more wholistic approach now at fitness. tell us about that. >> we want to make sure we train the whole body across all physical components. we are moving towards a system that does that for both physical and nonphysical health and fitness. it's called holistic health and fitness. already implementing that system new test for recruits to make sure they are physically ready to ship to initial training. leland: so this new testing involves a punishup of some type, correct? >> correct called a t push-up. pete: i don't know you could do a different kind of push-up. leland: you can do push-ups you didn't do with adam.

>> you call something a bleep hole because perhaps the place that has a lot of violent crime or terrible corruption, well then you are a racist. >> forget the words used. the question was why do you people on the democrat side want to continue to bring people to this country that are not going to benefit this country. pete: fox news is also learning devon nunes the house intel chairman is saying he's seen these fisa warrants and they're evidence of abuse of government surveillance by the fbi and justice department during the obama administration. >> this is huge what happened under the last eight years means nobody is safe. >> if you watch fox news you are living on a different planet. rachel: if you're barack obama
6:01 am
and you know devon nunes might be dropping something that prove s your administration was spying on donald trump as a candidate you might want to discredit fox because we'll be the only ones covering that. >> another spectacular day for stocks that surged to new record closes. >> headed out to capitol hill to find out where democrats stand on immigration reform. it didn't go so well. >> why do democrats care so much more about daca than they do about border security sir? you won't talk to us at all? >> can we talk to you for a second? ♪ just dance pete: welcome to the 9:00 hour of fox & friends on the island of manhattan. you know, leland vittert is here but earlier this week he was on capitol hill making friends. leland: everybody loved me and as you can see in fact everybody 's excuse was the same i've got to go catch a plane on
6:02 am
thursday congress ends the weakerly, they all head to the airport and i offered to drive a couple of people to the airport, if you'll give me an interview and shockingly nobody took me up on it. pete: show it to you this hour, he asked a simple question of democrats what's more important daca or the wall? their answers were revealing and rachel? rachel: our president is tweet ing right now and yesterday was a big day for the stock market. jobs are coming back to america, chrysler is coming back to the usa from mexico and many others will follow. tax cut money to employees is pouring into our economy with many more companies announcing american business is hot again. pete: so his first tweet about the economy and progress there second tweet about the topic almost everyone is talking about this morning at some level daca. the president tweeted this. the democrats are all talk and no action. they're doing nothing to fix daca, great opportunity missed, too bad. of course the context of that
6:03 am
tweet is earlier this week they had the meeting that was filmed where the democrats more or less agreed in sort of a media ambush to say okay yeah we will be for chain migration and the visa lottery system being removed in exchange for border security and daca. well, that wasn't popular with their base so they used another meeting where they mischaracterized or mischaracterized the president's comments as racist to walk back from it and now nancy pelosi going so far as saying only a daca deal only is what we will do. leland: and you do get the sense that there is a coordination in the talking points obviously that's what political parties do but there is this coordination that if we put the president in enough of a corner and we've been playing some montages of endless repeats if he's a racist or if he's terrible if they put him in enough of a corner maybe they can force republicans to abandon tying this to the wall and to changing immigration and force through this clean daca bill.
6:04 am
rachel: i think there's something actually more sinister than that. the democrats aren't stupid and they know the republicans are never going to vote for a clean daca bill that is poisonous to the base. what i think is actually happening is that meeting that happened earlier this week was their nightmare because the meeting last week meant we could solve the daca problem, we could secure the border which has always been the holdup for comprehensive immigration reform remember the president in that meeting said if we get this done , we might be able to move on to comprehensive. that is exactly what the democrats don't want. they want to keep the immigration alive and as the hispanic i'm telling other hispanics out there, the democrats don't want to solve immigration. they want to use it as a club and that's what we have right now and they want to go back. pete: democrats have admitted that keeping dreamers here is key to future electoral success. well the number two man in charge of the democratic national committee keith ellison , congressman from minnesota was speaking to a grassroots group in a
6:05 am
progressive group in pennsylvania and he admitted what this whole thing is about to them. take a listen. >> that's right, a clean act and it could not be one single politician in the state of pennsylvania who is in a state of confusion about how you feel. >> uh-huh. >> we're going to make it perfectly clear to all of them on a repeated basis, and yes, we have a litmus test. if you are a democrat who doesn't like a clean dream act, you're going to have some problems. >> [laughter] >> and don't count on me to protect you. you're on your own with that. pete: that's your speak pekin side. rachel: and that is proof if you ever want to see proof that they're not really serious about solving immigration or helping the daca kids, because if they were they know that the deal has to be a compromise, it has to be border security. the president said i'll do daca and maybe comprehensive immigration reform but you've got to give me the wall and end
6:06 am
chain migration and end the lottery system and most americans thought that was fair which why they jumped on this racist stuff. leland: question for you to both of you. how much of this is democrats calling the president calling democrats perhaps bluff when it comes to daca? because remember he kicked it to congress and said you've got a march deadline but opened up the possibility that he would continue president obama's executive order and allow the dreamers to stay, so if democrat s keep this up for another month and put president trump in that corner of either you deport all the dreamers and declare them illegal and end the executive order of you continue it, what does he do, what does he have to do? pete: first of all no one puts the president in a corner he will always punch back. rachel: that's a movie by the way. pete: he won't play. he's going to fight back and i think they've got the winning hand no matter what so if the dreamers end up getting deported it's because the democrats wouldn't make a deal and he will push harder and harder because they had the ability to make the deal right there because the
6:07 am
democrats don't control the levers of power. you don't get to be a democrat and say we get everything we want or we take our ball and go home. you have to play ball with the folks in power and give them what they come pained on in this case which we've played that tape on this show. bill clinton or barack obama or the democrats they all voted for or wanted a wall. now they don't want it because it's trump. rachel: and there's a lot of democrats in middle america who voted for trump who also want border security, so i think they may be appealing to their far left liberal coastal elites but there's a lot of common sense people that go you know what i want to, i have a compassion i want to help these kids who came through no fault of their own but we have to secure the border so we don't have another wave. pete: common sense another tweet we didn't play from the president just says america first and if your view is america first then borders matter and citizenship matters and country of origin, you can make some determinations about who you're letting into your country. leland: you made a point this president has been able to fight his way out of any corner for that matter democrats with the
6:08 am
help of the media have tried to put him in and we're hearing sort of desperate language almost from democrats as there's this fever storm of racism racism racism and another word getting tossed around by an npr host on msnbc being interviewed this word perhaps even more loaded than racist. take a listen. >> to the ice agents on the ground, who walk around as you know with huge lettering that says "police" they're not police when the president says this basically take them out that is what the community is saying this is fearful for us. leland: she pushed back on that word, kudos for actually saying there's a big difference here and the throw around has so many implications and she doubled down on it. rachel: yeah. pete: remember we're talking about the nazis here, we know what happened there, so the guys on the border that risk their
6:09 am
lives frankly for our country to secure our border, that's the equivalent? and i wonder what npr will do? do you listen to it? does it matter? leland: according to president obama different planets. people who listen to npr are on different planets. rachel: are we going to play a clip of what president obama had leland: there you have it let's go. >> one of the biggest challenges we have to our democracy is the degree to which we don't share a common baseline of facts. what the russians exploited but it was already here is we are operating in completely different information universes. if you watch fox news, you are living on a different planet. >> [laughter] >> than you are, if you --
6:10 am
>> [applause] >> -- listen to npr. rachel: nothing has made me more happy about a trump election than that looking down on people kind of language and even his position. i just -- pete: is he looking down on the fact i mean on the fox news planet we're the highest rated channel most people are watching is he looking down on success like he always does of course rich people are evil according to president obama but the reality is he hates the fact that conservatives have a voice. he can't stand the fact that the left wing media no longer is the monopoly and doesn't mean we live on different planets. i watch other channels to get a sense of what other people are looking at. again it's a way of looking down on regular people saying they're not capable of knowing things. leland: what's interesting is when he said that the audience applauded and laughed and thought it was just oh, so finance it funny and if there was a former republican president, george bush for example, gave an interview and talked like that about democrats
6:11 am
, looking down on democrats is just sort of a bunch of liberal weenies who live in coastal elite cities there would be a very different reaction from david letterman like oh, i'm going to sit and listen to the intellectual here. rachel: nothing is more for me than the text message from peter strzok, the fbi investigator with an axe against president trump who said i can smell the trump supporters when i walk around. pete: i think planet fox news smells great. rachel: [laughter] pete: smells like chocolate and pizza and steak. rachel: and bacon. leland: we could use bacon here. >> bacon! pete: we asked you for your comments about what president obama said and they're pouring in. this from ed. president obama had no problem taking 49% of his spending money from another planet. rachel: and this e-mail from elizabeth. so obama says we live on another planet, if only that were true. then we would not have to put up
6:12 am
with all of the craziness we've had to endure from the left in this past year. leland: from glenn. i, for one, am glad to be off planet obama and proud to be on planet prosperity. my 401 (k) speaks for itself. james carville as the democrats are licking their chops for 2018 they can't wait. it's the economy is stupid. rachel: that's what we're not talking about record breaking economy that's good for minorit ies, good for the working class that brought manufacturing back. leland: just peanuts says nancy pelosi. pete: the other thing we're not talking about but we are going to this hour is what devon nunes said which is groundbreaking. we'll get a look at the fisa warrants used to spy on president trump then candidate trump and they tell a pretty good story. leland: you saw a little bit of the tape earlier. i hit capitol hill this week to find out where democrats stand on immigration reform. didn't go so well. >> why do democrats care so much more about daca than they do about border security, sir? you won't talk to us at all?
6:13 am
>> can we talk to you for a second? >> i've got to catch a plane. leland: those weren't the only ones who ignored my questions even my offers to drive them to the airport. pete: they all have planes le land. rachel: move over jessie waters. pete: plus the fbi using that dirty dossier to find the trump campaign why is the rest of the media ignoring this huge story? we're not and neither is ned ryan who says they're complicit in one of the biggest political crimes ever. he joins us next. significantly improve lung function all day and all night.

6:16 am
pete: welcome back. well another bombshell involving that anti-trump dossier. we are learning that the fbi may have used it to spy on the trump campaign. this as intel chairman devon nunes said this week that the fbi and the doj abused its
6:17 am
surveillance powers during the obama administration. the question is why is the rest of the media ignoring this and how far does it go? joining me now with his reaction gop strategist and founder of and ceo of american majority ned ryan thanks for being here. >> great to be with you. pete: so devon nunes says he's seen these fisa warrants in a classified setting and they point to the fact that the trump campaign was specifically target ed. >> well let's go back and look at what cnn reported in april of 2017. pete: april of 2017? >> it reported that the fbi used a dossier to secure and justify spying on trump associates and to break that down for the view ers it means that the fbi was use the dossier to secure a fisa warrant to spy on carter page. we've known this for a long time and now what we're going to get is actual real proof of it because its been reported in the news and i think the reason that you're seeing media not wanting to talk about this because i think they are realizing they might be complicit in one of the biggest lies and political crimes in our history. pete: and part that the reason i
6:18 am
know that to be true is this program in march a month before that putting the dots together from the so-called mainstream media. take a listen to what he said then. >> the issue isn't whether the obama administration spied on the trump campaign or transition or certain, the issue is the extent of it. they ought to release both fisa court applications where they sought. the one in the summer and the one in october, so we know exactly what they were doing that's number one. number two, congress needs to see the daily presidential intelligence briefings over the past year or so. those are the beginnings of a serious investigation. pete: it's almost like its been hidden in plain sight. >> it has been and think again just about what this is all about that the obama administration, the doj and the fbi used a piece of partisan propaganda likely filled with information from russian intelligence operatives as justification to spy on american citizens and the media was complicit every step of the way and i'm actually starting i
6:19 am
wrote a piece for fox news last week in which what if the steel dossier actually turns out to be just a massive piece of russian this misinformation and the democrat party and elements of the doj and fbi and media all were played by the russians and the media acted as the method of delivery for russian misinformation into the american bloodstream. leland: we know they did because after the election they assumed hillary was going to win. open reporting then showed they were pushing that intelligence as fast as they could throughout intelligence agencies because they were worried the trump presidency would bury us. >> another way to look at this the media colluded with the obama administration officials to bring down the duly-elected president of the united states. i'll tell you the other reason they don't want to talk about this pete. they were journalists. we know for fact there were journalists being paid by fusion to push their propaganda and also evidence there were media companies that had a financial relationship with fusion. the media is going to have to do a lot of explaining to the american people once all the
6:20 am
facts come out, the role they played and the lives that they were pushing on be half of fusion and potentially even the russians. pete: well, welcome to planet fox news we're happy to have you >> happy to be here. i'm going t run for president some day. maybe we should do pete versus ned for president of fox planet. pete: i don't think either of us are going to win. ned thanks a lot. it will be amazing to see where this goes they thought the scandal was collusion and it looks like it could be investigation. >> the real scandal is the weaponnizing of the state against the political opponent. pete: well done thank you very much. how is this okay? actor robert dinero attacking the president in a profane rant? >> today the world is suffering from the real donald trump. >> [applause] >> this idiot is the president. pete: thank you, sir. actor chuck wollery is here with a message for his hollywood friends next and forget skiers or ice skaters wait until you hear how kim. >> jon: plans to go for the gold at the olympics.

6:26 am
controversial words. >> people from some of those countries were slaves brought here by force to help build this country. [bleep ] >> donald trump has turned the oval office into a hole. rachel: i thought that was bill clinton that disgraced the oval office but all right pete: well done. joining us is the co host of the plant force truth podcast chuck wollery. chuck we were all sitting stunned in silence out of that clip too. you've seen a lot what do you make of this? >> it's not even stun silence any more, it's just hysterical. everybody thinks after this meeting that trump had with the congressional leaders and everybody thought it was going swimmingly well and then they came in with this abomination of a bill, he said there's no chance i'm going to do this you give me like 10% of what i want and then dick durbin accuses him
6:27 am
of saying this about africa and haiti and everything else and i gasolenes it graham backed him up. these are two real fans of trump trump says he didn't say it so i'm going to go with trump i don't think he said it. he may have said something else so the left is now using this as leverage. they are absolutely desperate from all of these people from de niro in new york from everybody on the west coast with all of their, you know, dressed in black and now all the congressmen are going to come together and dress in black for the state of the union speech. it is just in sane. it really is. rachel: well you just mentioned -- >> i think that it's not really tuned into this as they think they are. rachel: you mentioned robert den iro. let's look at what he had to say >> today the world is suffering from the real donald trump. this idiot is the president. the guy is a [bleep ] fool. come on. how a government today with the prompting of our baby in chief
6:28 am
has [bleep ] chief i call him. pete: wait like a true actor we don't even know if the words are his own because he's reading them off paper. >> the point is this if you go to any comedy show and i've done this they're just about that same level this is what they attribute to being comedic and very funny today. it's easy to do those things. the difficult part is to understand the constitution and understand how the country's run now my surprise, and i admit that as a conservative, i'm really surprised, i think that at this point, i have no idea what the future is going to bring. trump is far more at least more conservative than our last conservative president which was ronald reagan and that's really saying a lot and there are guys who will back me up on this and that has been a total surprise. and the left despises it. pete: oh, of course they do chuck the president is up and tweeting this morning and just
6:29 am
tweeted moments ago about the daca deal. he said i don't believe the democrats really want to see a deal on daca. they're all talk and no action this is the time but day by day they're blowing the one great opportunity they have. too bad do you have any faith that the democrats truly want to come to the table in good faith to get a solution? >> here is what i have faith in and i tweeted this out the other day. i have faith in the fact that government, congress, some presidents are busy creating problems. they don't want solutions because as soon as they solve the major problem they got nothing to run on so it's not in their best interest to solve these problems. it's just in their best interest to create them and beat them to death and daca is just another problem they can beat to death and then run on it. pete: if they don't solve the wall process then illegal immigration continues unabated and they continue to have an issue to run on. >> yeah, and on top of that i read the other day where this is a new age of enlightenment.
6:30 am
we have this courseness that's been bone deep and this is the new age of enlightenment. you've got to be kidding me. i went through the new age in the 60s i'm not sure but i think so. rachel: [laughter] leland: chuck they're kind of using this democrats are using this as an excuse not to talk about real issues chuck thank you very much we appreciate it. good to talk to you. pete: blunt force truth. >> always nice to be with you thank you so much. leland: coming up the confederate flag is an issue across the country no question about that but one state thinks its found a solution to the issue, two flags. so how exactly is that going to work? pete: plus while the media is obsessing over one comment by president trump, they're missing another big story. our booming economy the president is tweeting about that this morning as well. rnc spokesperson is next. life happens.

6:35 am
media has been going crazy about president trump's comments, even though a lot of people are saying really, his description of these countries perhaps was right. pete: well a lot of people feel that way, and we're going to have with us right now kayleigh mcenany author of the great new book the new american revolution congratulations. >> thank you, i appreciate it. pete: so we could spend this block talking about what everyone else is talking about, what we've talked about we know where the president stands and what his policy is he's tweeting about it he wants a deal that includes daca and the wall but what we're missing is what's happening in our economy and the progress that we've made >> oh, it's remarkable 1.8 million jobs created last year and to compare, you know the forgotten factory worker across the country. we were hemorrhaging a thousand jobs per month under the obama administration and the manufacturing sector, under president trump 18,000 games per month, so we have seen a 180 turnaround, it's exciting, you can feel it across the country, but the mainstream media doesn't want to focus on it.
6:36 am
rachel: i was on fox business yesterday and there was an economist saying i think we'll get 4% growth. do you remember when he said that and the media laughed? the new normal is two. >> right and rachel as you'll recall during the obama administration we never hit 3%, but the mainstream media wants to talk about the selacious over the substantive. leland: cnbc, as the market was on a terror and we'll get to the president's tweet on that, record highs, earnings, big bank earnings, they spent minutes just sitting on a shot. president trump denying bleep comments that's all they cared about. pete: without his twitter feed that's all they would ever talk about but because he can tweet they're forced to report it and he tweeted this morning, the president about the stock market and said yesterday was a big day for the stock market. jobs are coming back to america chrysler is coming back to the u.s. from mexico and many others will follow. tax cut money to employees is pouring into our economy with many more companies announcing american business is hot again,
6:37 am
so cnbc could say whatever they want but if people are feeling their lives change. right you hit on the key point. americans can feel this. you know i have one cnn a comentator say to me if only we could get the news out there that wages are going up in the obama administration then hillary will win. you shouldn't have to tell someone their wages are going up and americans across this country it are seeing paychecks grow starting next month because of trump tax cuts. rachel: nancy pelosi doesn't think so. let's see what she says about all the bonuses that people are getting these days. >> in terms of the bonus that corporate america received versus the crumbs that they are giving to workers to kind of change it is so pathetic. leland: unbelievable. rachel: we were saying it's only on planet pelosi is $2000 something to scoff at. >> must be nice right living out there in california and putting carve your on your hamburgers? pete: well, you remember that
6:38 am
sounds interesting. but you went out to talk to people who do not put carve your on their cheeseburgers, not live in gated communities with bodyguards but the forgotten men and women president trump talked so much about. you said their stories are as powerful if not more powerful than anything else. >> absolutely. i traveled across the country and i expected to find a lot of anger and that was there with these forgotten men and women but i found so many peers and these individuals not deplorable as hillary clinton said but people with heartbreaking touching touching stories like kim copeland, who lost her son and husband in the terrorists attack and went to ohio and sat with a police family in their log cabin and heard about the loss of their son, and to see the little 5-year-old charlie running around, well she's now seven years old drew me this picture to thank me for writing her dad's story and just the most emotional thing to see her and to see this picture where she saluted her dad for the first and last time at his funeral. she was being held in her
6:39 am
grandfather's arms and her grandfather said what are you doing and he said we're saluting your dad and she put up her hand and for the first and last time. rachel: thank you foretelling these stories especially with police officers we hear the tragedy. we don't always see what happens after to these families. i think that it's so wonderful that you did that. >> rachel here is what was so in speering though when government didn't show up god did for these families. that police officer family, promised he would take his sister's shooting to shoot her first gun, she shoots her fist gun and right before she shoots someone says look down at your t oe, there was a blue and black butterfly, stayed with her and flu up to her finger and said justin was there so these families god got them through their darkest hour. rachel: god not government. pete: the book is call the new american revolution congratulations. thank you, pete. rachel: turn together your headlines. iran promising a severe response condemning president trump's new sanctions some targeting the
