"fox & friends" starts right now. have a good weekend. ♪ ♪ brian: that is the white house. and you saw a brief clip of us. when you see us again, we will be wearing totally different outfits. it is dark at the white house. can i get a second confirmation on that. steve: it is dark all across the eastern seaboard because it is 6:00 in new york city on this very rainy friday. ainsley: you said friday. did you say friday? do we care about the rain if it's friday? no. brian: if you are outdoors without an umbrella that would certainly be your number one. ainsley: i was this morning and i just ran. just darted right into the building. brian: 100-yard sprint. steve: you got out your pair sole to walk in.

brian: two people greet me at my limo. they will have umbrellas every day if they don't they will be fine you had. steve: exemplify what kind of a rainy day they are expecting here. outside the door here at studio f they have two dozen sand bags. they are waiting for a flood to come to the northeast. ainsley: a deluge. brian: actually survive the blistering weather. talk about what's going on, talking about blistering, that's exactly what's going on with this whole dossier controversy and seemingly some rivalry not only between republicans and democrats. senate and house as it relates to the intelligence committees and this investigation about what went on leading up to this election. steve: that's right. that man right there, he's what we are talking about right now. devin nunes, who is the chairman of the house intel committee, he has sent that blistering letter that brian was talking about to the attorney general. and essentially what he says is the fbi in using that

dossier, which was unverified, full of essentially crap, they may have broken laws, criminal laws when they were applying for the fisa application to spy on carter page and ultimately all the members of the trump circle. he says it looks to him as if they broke at least five criminal laws. including conspiracy, obstruction and contempt of court. ainsley: he sent a letter to the attorney general, to jeff sessions. and this is what a portion of that letter said. under the subsection fisa verification of accuracy procedures, the fbi itself acknowledges this importance. the accuracy of information contained within fisa applications is of utmost importance. only documented and verified information may be usinged to support fbi applications fisa applications to the court. brian: also, the guidance also states the information is in a fisa application must be thoroughly vetted and confirmed. nobody really believes that the dossier, including james comey, was verified and confirmed.

it was innuendo and conclusions. none of it or some of it could be true. and keep in mind, too. this is a debate we have been having. well it was listed there in an addendum that this could be a political document. it was very nuanced. certainly wasn't direct. it wasn't transparent. which brings up a bigger question about the fisa court specifically. steve: we will get to that in a second. but there are two other questions that he asked in the letter. one, is were there any changes to the law from 2011 that we don't know about that you need to tell us about? because certain times they do alter things so they can get stuff done. the other thing is all right. if five criminal laws were broken, what has the fbi and doj done to hold those people accountable? ainsley: some of you have sent in questions. sings we have been talking about it, many of you want to know who is on this fisa court? why is it so private? what can they know? mark levin host of life,

liberties and levine on the fox news channel sunday nights. brian: big hit. ainsley: he just stuarted that show last weekend. he said fisa needs needs to be investigated. listen to this. >> the judges on this fisa court so far have gotten away without being scrutinized. if you're a judge, and we have had successive judges in this fisa court over a period of one year and you don't do something about it, congress needs to look into this: i do not expect the department of diswrowive investigate the department of justice. i just don't. i don't expect the fbi to investigate the fbi. i damn well expect federal judges serving as fisa court judges that misconduct was committed in front of them. time to abolish the fisa court. time to create a new intelligence related court. it should not exist of existing federal judges. they should be confirmed not for life terms. for given terms. the fbi and the justice department where they go into that court should not be alone anymore.

steve: just talking about accountability. why should that part of american jurisprudence be any different than everything else? brian: we thought it was for expediency and for a way for our justice system act quickly. not solely but specifically for terrorist activities. if they're using it for political reasons, we have got to stop it. steve: to spy on americans. brian: beyond unacceptable. meanwhile, i have no idea why mark levin is successful. he is so direct. so smart, being sarcastic. so right to the point. that's the why his sunday show is fantastic. ainsley: right. and his radio show. condoleezza rice she was on "the view" was it yesterday? steve: um-huh. ainsley: she was on "the view" with adam schiff and all those ladies. and, of course, she being the republican and adam schiff being the democrat and there have been so many conversations about russia and the memos. so they were talking about the russia investigation and she basically said time to wrap it up. listen to this.

>> i spent a lot of time in washington. and i know you have a really hard job, and i appreciate what you are doing for the country. but i really hope you can wrap it up. the country needs to get back to business. [applause] >> that is my greatest hope. steve: the good thing, did you hear the applause there. there are americans who wants essentially the government to get back to business and to have adam schiff and the democrats wrap up their investigation. also mueller as well. she did work with robert mueller during the bush years and she said she was a big fan and said he is going to do this in a very fair way. brian: by the way robert mueller is budgeted 201, $10 billion a year. condoleezza rice was there the entire hour. she is going to be there talking about a movie about citizenship which is fantastic. and meg began mccain also did a fantastic job challenging adam schiff. essentially, what have you found as it relates to collusion he?

said there are some things, what have you found as it relates to collusion? he is unable to answer that question. he has had hundreds of appearances talking about what he is working on and how disturbed he is. steve: meanwhile, i don't know if you realize this but on wednesday, mike huckabee, former governor of arkansas was appointed to the board of the country music association's board of directors. and then after he got the appointment, there were a number of country music executives and agents and whatnot who started to talk about how much they really don't like mike huckabee, in particular they don't like his stance on that additional family marriage. ainsley: they say is he too conservative for them and doesn't like everyone who listens to country music. he designed to resign. brian: shortest stent ever in history of the cma. gave a long letter about one

of which is what music has mental to his life. he also said this, if the industry doesn't want people of faith or who hold conservative and traditional political views to buy tickets and music, they should be forthcoming and say it surely near the artist or business people of the industry want that. so he heard the controversy. felt the blow back and said okay, keep it. i don't need this job. but let me just tell you, i'm going to go down swinging and outline what music did for him in his life. how valuable. good riddance. ainsley: for country music is he too conservative. a lot of people boycotting cma now and upset about this. read the full letter go to foxnews.com we encourage you to do that. steve: 6:08 in new york city. jillian, if you just missed the conclusion of the 5:00 hour, just jurepsd out of an airplane. jillian: literally just a couple minutes ago jumped out of a plane and made it back here already. ainsley: glad to be back on ground? jillian: back on ground. we will actually have more on that coming up later in

not every member of our caucus will support that ban. but the vast majority will: if the president can get some republicans to vote for the assault weapons ban, we can pass it soon. brian: what about just toomey-man colin that bipartisan push for background checks. here for that is senator bernie sanders and 2016 campaign manager tezlyn figaro, a republican strategist and author of this new book called "fire them now" philip stutz. welcome to both of you. a lot of people watched on wednesday were totally rifted to the legitimate debate between two sides so civil. i found it fascinating. no one really knew exactly what the president was going to sign on to. senator schumer upping the ante in a way you are comfortable with? >> let me start out by saying, this brian, i live in the state of florida. i have a 5-year-old daughter that will go to public school next year.

this issue is really important to me we saw what chuck schumer came out yesterday it feels more like a band aid than fixing the wound and the problem. look, we have 270 million guns in this country. 323 million people live in this country. and so, look, i'm all for having some gun control debate, but the fact is that we know that the parkland shooting could have been avoided if the police had just stopped this ahead of time. if the police had, after 20 visits, with the cruz kid that they could have prevented this. we also know there is a broken healthcare system and the fact. brian: got to be part it. >> this child among all the other shooters had family problems. brian: got to be part of it. we do know. this i had 911 calls. we all heard it, tezlyn, neighbors trying to call in nikolas cruz as a dangerous lunatic. cops showing up i can't do anything to stop it. so this debate needs to be holistic. where are we going with it?

what's real? what's real in terms of an accomplishment here? >> well, you know, i will tell you what's real. let me first start off with saying i'm a n 60 gunner in the air force reserves. that's the king kong of assault weapons. i do have a hard time trying to understand why civilians need military style weapons on the street. i too lived in florida 10 years. look at florida and what it is they are looking for. they have voted for the people they want to put in place. people they have put in place are republicans who believe that an assault weapon counters the second amendment. so what it really comes down to this. all of this is just a bunch of talk to be quite honest with me. if people want to ban weapons, they have to ban people at the box. who are they putting in place that will vote their interest whether that is orlando be parkland. when we look at both of those issues, both of those individuals bought those assault weapons legally. whether we have the issue of parkland about police who could not have stopped it. i believe that criminals will do what criminals do. we can put a stop sign up but that's not going to stop

people from running the stop sign. government has to take some type of responsibility and put some type of regulation in place that does not counter the second amendment right. brian: that's a good point that tezlyn makes. phil, one of three of his guns were legal. he would have used one of his illegal guns and maybe less died. that would be awesome. at the same time, the crime still happens. so, what is realistic? toomey-manchin, universal background checks where everything would come up, no matter what state you're in, including internet sales. how about that? and person-to-person sales. can we get on the same page with that? >> you know, whether you have chuck schumer coming out yesterday and saying he wants to do something in a bipartisan manner and then he bashes the nra, that tells me is playing political games. so i think there can be a bipartisan bill in some way, form, or fashion. because the president is going to be involved. last night the president met with the nra. i think that's a good step. i think they are trying to

get on the same page. i hope he can get with the senate and they can figure out solutions that are less of a band-aid and more of a fix of what our society needs when is not necessarily just gun control but fix the healthcare system. the family value system and frankly, if we want the federal government more involved, the federal government couldn't even stop this in the first place. and that's what worries me. brian: tezlyn, we saw government in action. like it or not, we saw people calling each other by their first names in separate parties. i want to see this continue. however, we need to see results from these meetings, right, tezlyn? >> right. brian: what do we hope happens in the next two and a half weeks? >> to me we saw people calling first name. i saw a good dog and pony show. at the end of the day, people are going to have to ban people at the box. they are interested in changing the laws in florida or changing the laws in this country, it really does come down to voting in people. even president trump said what were you guys doing before? what's solution before? it's the same rhetoric over and over year over year same

result which is usually nothing. brian: you are not optimistic we are going to get everything done even after the horror of february 14th. >> i would have thought the horror with columbine and the horror with the orlando pulse shooting. i actually worked with senior crisis management on that case. i would have thought they have would have done a change before. republican party has made it clear florida voted in these individuals marco rubio or want somebody new. the rest of it is a dog and pony show. brian: marco rubio is not the problem a loft democrats that are progun. >> absolutely. brian: i'm optimistic. >> me too. brian: there is not a person who believes this president want to take your gun away that's the difference. maybe they will trust more and understand something could actually get done without an alternative motive. phil and tezlyn great debate. thank you so much. >> i guess we will see. brian: i hope i'm right. forget about he and she.

of the east coast. ainsley: meanwhile, thousands in southern california are under a mandatory evacuation. an incopping storm expected to trigger mud slides in the area. brian: i would like to toss to janice but we just did the weather. we just did everything to you. janice: now back to you. a little detail. southern california we are watching you for the potential of flooding in the burn areas. we have one storm off the west coast. another here in the east coast that's causing misery for northeast travel as well as new england. this is our nor'easter. it hasn't even cranked up yet. this is just the beginning of it snow in the interior section and too warm along the coast to get any significant snow. we could see a burst of snow in say new york city even d.c. later on today. you can see we are getting rain and snow, a mix in d.c. it's rain in new york. clouds in philadelphia, and rain in hartford. and, boston, you could actually get some snow as well. there are your forecast temperatures as we go through the day today. and then we could genesee a burst of snow across the northeast.

and it will be out of here on saturday. but i'm worried about the lingering winds because this storm is going to kind of park itself along the coast. this is a very powerful system with hurricane. widespread power outages are possible. again, the flooding concern, especially along the coast in areas that are vulnerable to storm surge. that's one area want to make mention of. 48 mile-per-hour gusts right now in d.c. that's going to continue throughout the day today in through the evening. travel is going to be impossible in a lot of areas. steve: is this another one of those genesis. the pressure drops 24 millibars in 24 hours. and that classifies it as a bomb. big storm. ainsley: i had friends who were supposed to fly today and they ended up taking flights yesterday to head down south. ainsley: it'south.ains. janice: it's a lot of problems. steve: j.d., thank you. van january you got it. steve: the reverend billy graham will be laid to rest

fitting for my father for his service, his last service to be in a tent. he said okay. but, that's where he started and god used him in a tent. and so why not finish in a tent. >> and president trump, of course, first lady melania and vice president and his wife karen and todd starnes as well are invited guests. i'm just a reporter here, guys. >> you know, going back to that canvas tent. they are actually calling this a canvas cathedral. about 2300 people are going to be here celebrating the life and the legacy of billy graham. but, beyond that, guys. what i find fascinating is that you have got people here from all walks of life. this is really, again, about the simple message that billy graham brought to the nation. and it's a message that

steve: kind of an offscript moment yesterday, wasn't it. brian: a little bit. the president for the united states for the longest time say we have been taken to the cleaners on trade. when i become president we have fair trade. not free trade but fair trade. he took a shot and divided his administration in doing it he decides i'm back in the game with tariffs. i'm going to impose steel tariffs, impose tariffs on

steel and aluminum 10% on aluminum and 25% on imported steel. and it's crazy. democrats and republicans divided on the impact. ainsley: he says he is tired of being treated so poorly by other countries. it's time to represent america. he says he has america's best interest at heart or in mind. steve: right. ainsley: he tweeted this morning when a country, u.s.a. is losing many billions of dollars on trade with virtually every country, it does business with, trade wars are good and easy to win. example. when we're down 100 billion with a certain country and they get cute, don't trade anymore, we win big. it's easy. steve: clearly. is he talking about china. what's going on internationally is a lot of countries are just dumping on the world steel market steel at below cost privacy. if you are buying steel, who are you going to buy it from? you are going to buy it from the cheapest entity. so a lot of people have been buying steel internationally to the detriment of the american worker. that stops under this president. the stock market sold off

yesterday to the tune of 400 points at one point. nobody should be surprised because this is something donald trump, when he was a within a democrat saicandidate o do it when imin the house. he said 25% for steel and 10% for aluminum. brian: navarro is all for this and he outlined it last night. >> no surprise here, candidate trump 2016 said he was going to defend american workers against unfair trade practices, build up our defense industrial base. build up our manufacturing base. we are in danger of losing those two industries. this was about natural defense, national security. economic security. manufacturing jobs and he came in as he has been doing with a measured response that will be very effective in keeping our jobs here. so, i think this was a great day for america. brian: reportedly wilbur ross not happy about it. steve mnuchin not happy about it gary cohn not happy

divided issue. if it's not helping you hopefully they will change it these tariffs should take effect next week. steve: we will see. progun georgia lawmakers are punishing delta for cutting ties with the nra. we will tell you more. and ad. what pain? when did you see the sign? when i needed to jumpstart sales. build attendance for an event. help people find their way. fastsigns designed new directional signage. and got them back on track. get started at fastsigns.com. and got them back on track. we the people... are defined by the things we share. and the ones we love. who never stop wondering what we'll do or where we'll go next. we the people who are better together than we are alone...

examination of the entire fisa process. ainsley: he wrote a letter to the attorney general to jeff sessions just this blistering letter indicating how furious he is a portion of that letter reads: under the subsection fisa verification of accuracy procedures, the fbi itself acknowledges this important accuracy of the information contained within fisa applications is of utmost importance. only documented and verified information may be used to support fbi applications to the court. only documented, only verified accuracy of information is important. steve: and the reason that's important is because now we all know that that dossier is unverified. and they were unable to figure out whether or not it was true and, yet, they blopsd it down on the desk of a judge and said please allow us to have this ability to spy on this guy, carter page and ultimately the people he worked with which was everybody at the trump organization when he was running for president. in his letter, devin nunes says it looks to them, the republicans, up on capitol hill, as if the fbi and the

doj may have broken five criminal laws, including conspiracy, obstruction, contempt of court and mark levin, who has got that great new show on the weekend called liberty and levine. life, liberty and levine. the three ls. he says we should look into what happened and get rid of the fisa court. >> the judges on this fisa court so far have gotten away without being scrutinized. if you're a judge, and scwee had successive judges in this fisa court over period of one year. and you don't do something about it. congress needs to look into this. i do not expect the department of justice to investigate the department of justice i just don't. i don't expect the fbi to investigate the fbi i expect federal judges serving as fisa court judges to make sure that conduct wasn't committed in front of them. time to abolish the fisa court. time to create a new counter

intelligence related court. it should not consist of existing federal judges. they should be confirmed u not for life terms. for given terms. the fbi and the justice department, where they go into that court should not be alone anymore. brian: i would add to this. i would love to see the intelligence community select committees in both branches, both branches located in the capitol building to be able to review the transcripts. it's not that big of deal to find out what was presented, what the judge said to led them to the conclusion to allow warrants to happen. devin nunes says this. have you until march 8th -- yeah, march 8th to add for the doj to answer these questions and he wants a quick answer about the protocols and what happened in 2011 when this was passed and everything submitted had to be verified and obviously it wasn't verified. we have been debating on the addendum at the bottom. was it abun dancely clear that this judge knew that hillary clinton paid for this document used to spy on carter page. ainsley: why is it taking so

long to get those transcripts? steve: because it's a secret court and they don't want them out. ainsley: why is there a secret court that's making decisions like this? steve: listen, that's just the way that congress has set this up. to brian's point, the two questions that nunes wants the department of justice to answer as he sends off this letter to the attorney general is did they change the rules regarding the fisa applications back in 2011? because we don't know up on capitol hill. you might have done it and not told us. the other thing is have you -- you okay down there? brian: probably not. that's why we have a backup camera guy. [laughter] >> oioiloy. steve: what steps may have broken five laws. brian: devii sense we are in for a very interesting week. i will add to this, too. it looks like andy mccabe is in a little bit of additional troubling. it turns out they want the inspector general leak out

replaces two black judges in south carolina. ainsley: that president obama appointed? steve: exactly. here's the thing. guy, nominee, highly qualified. so why would chuck schumer stand in the way of it? lindsey graham tweeted. this i judge nominees on the content of their character. not the color of their skin. chuck schumer should do the same. ainsley: wrong to deny someone because of their skin color. and then tim scott also from south carolina, he writes or tweets: perhaps senate democrats should be more worried about the lack of diversity on their own staff than attacking an extremely well qualified judicial nominee from the great state of south carolina. brian: trey gowdy who defines the word justice says i hate to interrupt senator schumer with facts one nominee was withdrawn because of a significant bond issue while other became the chief justice of the south carolina supreme court. i'm going to add to this. is there a difference in the condemnation that came at president trump when he

looked at a judge and says he has a mexican background i have been sparring with mexico and worried about his judgment being colored by his heritage. you got to be kidding me. you can't question the integrity of a judge by heritage. is he questioning the character of a judge by the color of his skin. condemning president trump for your interpretation of what he meant. are you have to condemn senator schumer. steve: you meant matily the judge was confirmed the final vote 69-29. despite schumer trying to stand in the way, marvin quattlebaum will be a new federal district judge. ainsley: let us know what you think about that. we are curious what your emails have to say about that this morning. hand it over to jillian for headlines. jillian: good friday morning to you guys and to you at home as well. a state prison on lockdown when 600 inmates riot for hours. those prisoners in arizona throwing rocks, setting mattresses on fire and breaking into the health unit. some employees attacked in the chaos but not seriously

governor attach this crony giving delta a tax break it offended me and every other georgian out there fighting the president. brian: you also want to send a message, right, to people who take political stands as it relates to business, correct? >> exactly. this is not the first time that delta has tried to interfere in the legislative process. they came out and cut their ties with the nra. they also, two years ago, whenever we passed the federal law to protect our religious liberties here in the state, they came out against that as well. so we had to send a message that again, we are not going to support crony capitalism in georgia. brian: said this was going to pass until they took their stand in delta. put 135-124 no. and 44-10 no. so it looks like they are not going to get their tax break. >> they are thought. brian: casey cagle made this clear with us a couple days ago. quote, businesses have every

legal write to make their own decisions but the republican majority four state legislature also has the right to govern guided by our principles. how much did this actually cost delta, would you say? >> there's different numbers. i have heard anywhere from 30 to $50 million. but what also is being said in this bill that we passed it's a tax cut to all georgians and all georgia corporations. so delta is going to get a tax reduction. also it's important to note that lieutenant governor didn't have the gumption to say that until the senate as a body, at least the republican caucus wree we united and told him we weren't going to support it. brian: are you worried about them picking up stakes and going to new york, come move to us. fun one private employer. are you worried about retaliation for your retaliation? >> i'm not. again, delta has really deep ties here in georgia and here in atlanta. again, we did pass a tax reduction that will give them a tax break. it's just not limited to them.

think is the retaliation that would matter most to them? >> well, we have already used sanctions. and i actually think sanctions against putin and his inner circle are very effective. brian: individual sanctions? >> this person can't travel. this person can't visit. you have to realize the reach of the united states is really broad. so when you are listed by the united states, it really has an effect on what you can and cannot do. i would be a little careful about sanctions on some aspects of the economy because there are some young russians there for whom contact with the west is really important. we want to isolate putin and putinism. but we don't want to isolate the russian people. ainsley: how long have the russians tried to interfere in our elections? >> going back into the 30's, 40's, 50's. they also had this idea that they could stir up trouble among disaffected americans. it's just that the internet and social media makes it easier to do. i want to say one other thing. vladimir putin is out there talking about his nuclear missiles. and we should just say look,

first of all, nobody has ever said that american missile defense could say knock down thousands of russian missiles. i told him that myself personally when i was secretary of state. that missile defense is aimed at iran or north korea. not at russia. the second thing is, he apparently had a picture being able to hit florida. they have been able to hit florida since 1980. so sometimes he says really absurd things and we just need to call him out. steve: now the president has a house in florida. >> maybe that was the idea, right? ainsley: we want to bring new to talk about this movie. we were sent the movie overnight. we watched it last night. it's beautifully done. tell the folks at home why you decided to collaborate together. >> the film is called american creed, aired for the first time three nights ago. it's a story about hope, i believe. it's a story -- we tell several stories, 300 million stories. we tell about six or seven of them about people in various communities around

the country who are doing things to revisize their communities and make people think about what it means to be an american. steve: that is the perfect set up. let's watch a clip. >> americans don't have ties with blood, we're not all one ethnic group. so what does hold us together as a society? >> it starts with us. gathering ourselves around values, experiences. stories about what it is to be an american. brian: so you look at these people's heritage and try to say this is where we were as a country and this is where we are as a country. there is a lot of things disturbing about it i want to bring it to you personally you said there were times when i was growing up where i couldn't go to certain theaters and on camera saying this. i couldn't go to certain restaurants. the feeling amongst your family was education will free us. >> right. brian: have we lost that message? has education let us down? where do you want us to grow from that statement? >> i want us to recognize that the american dream has

always been accessible by a high quality education. you weren't a prisoner of your class because you could get access to a good education. d.a. is the first to have gone to college in his family. is he a plultser is prize winning historian. steve: he has done okay. >> we have got to keep that alive. right now the state of k-12 in this country, look at your zip code and tell if you are going to get a good education. it doesn't matter where you came from. it matters where you are going. brian: more now than if i talked to you 15 years ago? >> absolutely. it's not getting better. brian: what's going on. >> we have got to refocus on good teaching my mom was a teacher. i believe in good teachers. we have got to focus on high standards for even the poorest of kids. you know, when president bush said the soft bigotry of low expectations that someone of our greatest challenges. steve: sure. >> every child can learn and every child should have an opportunity to learn. but we're optimistic. and that's why we made this

film. we are very different. steve: it's hard to get our lawmakers on the same page because early on in your film you talk about how polarize you had the country is right now. >> title of the film american creed comes from a very famous work world war ii about the race issue in the united states. the author, gunner says something in that book that even the most uneducated person and the most isolated hollows of appalachia has internalized and believes in his or her heart the american creed, which is liberty, equality, justice and a fair opportunity for everybody. he can say that without contradiction in 1944 when they published that book. ainsley: it's beautiful. >> i'm not sure we can say that today and everybody would ascend to it. ainsley: you open it up clearly talking about your differences not just how you grew up but the fact that you are african-american. you're a white democrat. you are a republican. where y'all have come and then they have a round table discussion with all these students. these amazing very brilliant students and they are all

talking about how their first generation college kids. burn girl talks about how she grew up in the poorest home and have touching stories. highlight six individuals throughout the country. i love the principal, the lady who is waving to the kids and making a difference in their lives. it's definitely something you need to check out. does a good job. beginning stages of bringing this country back together. brian: and lastly, you do say it's hard to appreciate something you have as opposed to people who come here and get sworn. in you have a citizen's group and you see the emotion of people who become american citizens. how far can we get that same passion when we were born with it and not take it for granted? >> i think much of the answer is renewing the creed through our actions. it is recognizing that when the individual citizen is working for the good of other citizens, that's when we are at our best. so this is also a call to action. you will see that every single person in this film has figured out a way to make a difference. and so we're saying to

americans to figure out a way to make a difference and that will renew your faith in america. steve: well, it is premiered on pbs. if you would like to see it, stream it into your house, go to pbs.org. condoleezza rice, david kennedy, thank you very much. congratulations. >> thank you. brian: great to see you again. straight ahead. ainsley: 30 minutes after top of the hour the president meeting with the nra inside the oval office. what exactly went on? shawrns is goinsarah huckabee sg to join us live. steve: whatologic just said about the night his ex-wife was murdered. you are going to wants to hear it. ♪ don't ask me why ♪

snow coming down. is it continuing? let's go to our weather watcher, shawrnt sarah huckabee sanders. have you gone inside. is it still snowing outside. >> there is a little snow outside and a lot of wind. i have moved in instead of braving the weather this morning. steve: don't blame you. thank you. brian: the best you can confidentiality matters in the oval office. we understand nra higher ups met with the president. you know two, days ago the president was in all ideas are welcome moment. got a lot of republicans nervous. other people got optimistic that something would actually get done. could you tell us what the nra concerns were and is anything off the table after that meeting? >> look, i don't think the nra has had concerns with this president. he has been very committed to supporting the second amendment. but, also looking for ways that we can promote school safety and reduce gun violence. this is something that we

have been having ongoing conversations with. the president president has madr he wants to talk to all big stake horlsdz in this process. parents, teachers, students. local law enforcement. state and federal authorities as well as members of the nra. he is going to continue to have those conversations. continue to work with congress to create legislation that we think can help improve the system and make sure we're doing everything we can to protect kids in the school. brian: where are we with that legislation? is the president all in on toomey-manchin? is all in with senator cornyn-murphy? when do you think he will make an outright decision like this is my plan, go bass it? >> look, the president has already expressed support for senator cornyn's legislation u h. he has also supported the stop gun violence act. those are two pieces of legislation in their current form that the president supports. the toomey bill he has not fully gotten on board with. they are still kind of

working out some of the final pieces of that legislation. until it gets into its final stage, we're not going to weigh in. but we're continuing to closely watch that. and engage with a number of members of congress to help improve the system. some of the things that he would like to see improving on how the background snl works. largely done through senator cornyn's bill and that's one of the big reasons he supports that again, he is looking for ways that we can improve the mental health system. so that we can take guns away from people that shouldn't have them. these are all the types of things that he is looking for and hope are reflected in legislation that congress puts forward. ainsley: mainstream media is saying white house is in chaos. hope hicks left the white house. left the administration. there are rumors now that general mcmaster might be on his way out. what's the truth here? >> look, general mcmaster is not going anywhere. as the president said yesterday, in the oval office to a number of the people he thinks he is doing a great job and glad he is here. look, i was making a joke just before we started the

chaos that i see most this morning i left three preschoolers and a bunch of flashlights with the power out at my house. it was pretty chaotic and certainly far more chaotic early this morning than when i got to the office. brian: miner's cap and bus passe get going i have an interview to do. >> the bottom line is, if this is chaos, i think the american people are glad for it. because we just passed the biggest tax cuts in history. isis is on the run. we are rebuilding our military. we are rebuilding the judiciary. remaking what that looks like. the economy is strong. we have a lot of positive things happen in this country. and that's happening under the direction and the leadership you have president trump. and we're going to continue to do big and great things over the next year. under his leadership. if they want to call it chaos, fine. we call it success and productivity and we will keep plugging along. ainsley: why did hope decide

to leave? what's the story there? >> hope has been with the president, working for him for a little over three years. and this is something she had been talking about for a while and felt like this was the right time. she wants to spend some time with her family. and i think maybe take a little bit of a break and to have some time for herself. brian: when did you know? >> i have known that she has been taking about it for several months. steve: all right. well, it was a shock to see that she was going to head out the day after her testimony up on capitol hill that wasn't very secret as it was supposed to be. yesterday, there at the white house, you had a conference on opioids. so many powerful stories about americans whose lives have been destroyed by it. i know the president has said that we should declare it a national emergency. where do we go from here? >> look, this is obviously something that is a great concern, not just for the administration but for across the country. i think you heard a lot of the stories yesterday. this is something that the

president has taken a huge interest in. he has asked kellyanne conway, one of the senior administration officials to take a lead on this. working a lot with the first lady. this is something that the president is going to be aggressive on. he put $10 billion in his budget to make sure that specifically directed to h.h.s. to help combat the opioid problem. we're going to continue looking for other ways. you had the veterans administration be one of the first hopghts to start limiting the opioids ratings. and we'll continue to do things like that. the president has got some more announcements coming on that in the next few weeks that he is excited about. we will keep you guys posted as those happen. brian: we know one of the most controversial things and most intriguing thing that the president did wasn't a big mystery if you talked to him over the years and that's tariffs, in particular aluminum and steel. announced yesterday, implemented next week. among the people upset by this canada is vowing retaliation, as is europe. will the president actually

decide if someone will be exempt from these tariffs and maybe they get some carveouts for people that aren't dumping or aren't violating as opposed to china, for example? and when will we know about that? >> the president expects to make those announcements next week and those details are being finalized. in terms of what that will look like, i can't get ahead of the president's announcement. this is a president who has been talking about this not just since the campaign but frankly for decades. and this is something that shouldn't come as a surprise to anybody. the president is committed to looking out, protecting the american worker. that's exactly what he is going to do. that's what he campaigned on. that's what he is delivering on. and these actions that you are seeing that took place yesterday. ainsley: i know you grew up down south. many viewers country music fans. your dad was asked to sit on the board of directors fort cma foundation and a few days later they asked him to step down there. is a controversy because is he so conservative. some people upset about his political views about marriage.

and so your father decided to resign. can you talk about that? why did he decide to step down? >> look, i think that it's a great loss for the industry. there is no greater advocate for the arts and music education than my dad. and they would have found somebody to be extremely passionate. this was one of the top things that he worked on con sis tenthsly as governor. i think he would have been a great addition. i think it's a really sad thing that he won't get to be part of that he will continue fighting for kids and arts and music education. and whatever capacity he can. he is incredibly dedicated. i know he credits a lot of his success in life goes back to music. he was a shy kid. and hated to be in front of people until he learned to play the guitar when he was about 11. steve: right. >> this is something he is passionate about. it's not going to stop. it's not going to change. he will continue advocating for that because he think it's really important that every kid in this country has the opportunity to learn to play an instrument or to be part of the arts. and that's something that he

is going to continue to be a strong advocate for. ainsley: more time with the grand kids. thanks so much, sarah. >> sunk athank you, guys. steve: if you would like to read mike huckabee want complete statement it's on foxnews.com. brian: is he overcoming shyness. is he very good. in a few hours billy graham will be laid to rest. long time friend pastor is here next reflecting on who he called, quote, one of the world's greatest men closed quote. steve: come up on this friday, we have geraldo, stuart, and the movie star dennis quaid. dennis quaid. brian: pick your home.

apparently the department of homeland security and department of justice are considering obstruction of charges against the mayor. >> well, it is possible the mayor did commit obstruction of justice. depends where she got the information. she is unapologetic bit. if she got information that the i.c.e. raid was pending through a official sources, then she could very well be in a jam. she says, however, she got it from multiple informal sources, you know, people, chatting about it. the word came down that the i.c.e. task force was mobilizing, was going to hit the bay area pretty hard to round up the undocumented immigrants. she went out there. she says she is willing to go to jail for it. california, you know, we have to recognize in our country, you guys know this, the blue-red thing, the liberal-conservative thing, many people believe the undocumented, particularly what

irked i think mayor schaaf some other officials, san jose and san francisco mayors also, was the fact that i.c.e. was not just rounding up criminal aliens, by criminal alien, someone who is here without documentation committed a crime other than their mere presence, they cite ad case, one woman, maria mendoza sanchez, 46 years old, mother of four, a nurse, who have 20 years residence in the bay area was rounded up and deported. those are the kind of things that really irk people, for instance, the "dreamers" should be given -- steve: what about the people who had committed sexual abuse? people who apparently were drawing dealing? up and down the list of people who broke the law? >> steve, in those cases obviously, you know, it irks many people. it seems like a violation of everything we hold sacred and

yet, there are some who just believe that local authorities and state authorities would be better suited, you know, to enforce their own laws. they don't want i.c.e., the federal government coming in. it's a dilemma that will not be solved absent some kind of comprehensive immigration agreement that includes the "dreamers." it will be contentious, two sides, no matter what. brian: when was last time you were in los angeles or san francisco? >> what is that? brian: when was the last time you were in los angeles or san francisco? >> weeks ago. brian: right. have you noticed the blossoming, ugly homeless problem that they're experiencing there, not only do they feel like they're overtaxed and in the red, but i have never seen, almost like a city within a city of tents. yet the san francisco mayor has announced an 11 million-dollar fund to pay for legal aid for these detainees. how is that fair to the people who are here legally knowing

that there is clearly a need for those tax dollars elsewhere? >> first of all i absolutely agree. i have never, remember i lived in california many years also, i have negative particularly in san francisco, seen the homeless problem more egregious than it is now. it is epidemic. they have had a very liberal attitude toward the homeless. as a result, there are tent cities everywhere, you know bridges. any place there is a, you know a park where you can pitch a tent, i think it is really very unsavory in many, many regards. there are other needs the city has. that comes to your question about the 11 million-dollar legal aid fund and morality of that. i again think it will be "different strokes" for different folks. when you consider how many people in the bay area, california generally, are hispanic, have ties to the immigrant population legal and

illegal it is just a way different place than, i sit in the snows of ohio, you're in manhattan. california is far away, it has a different vibe, different attitude. goes through a different beat. you will never get people who believe in strict enforcement of immigration codes. brian: it is getting to a tipping point. >> it could well be. ainsley: let's go to washington right now, devin nunez, chair of house intel committee, he is now saying, he wrote a scathing letter to the ag jeff sessions saying the fbi might have violated multiple criminal statutes in the fisa application. and getting the permission to spy on the trump campaign. what are your thoughts? >> i agree with devin nunez. i believe, first of all, when you have a fisa warrant, one of the sacred, secret warrants from a court that is unlike every other court in the land.

it operates secretly. because of all of the constitutional protections that are suspended by the fisa process it is very, very strict. you have to have possible cause that the target of your investigation is an agent for a foreign government. you have to have probable cause. you have to have more evidence that more likely than not likely the target of your investigation, in this case, carter page, is an agent for a foreign government, in this case, russia. so what was the probable cause for the fisa warrant? it turns out the lion's share of it was in fact the steele dossier, was in fact this salacious, uncorroborated, this rumor-rife compendium of donald trump's alleged sexual exploits with no proof whatsoever. they disguised the steele dossier, the fbi, seems to me, as real evidence. a the evidence that would support that foundation of

probable cause that i just described you need to get the fisa warrant. so if that is true. and appears to be true, nunez seems, saying that it is true. that the evidence was in fact, all this innuendo, all this gossip, all this rumormongering, and the fbi knew, that and renewed that fisa warrant application several times, because they only last 90 days, to get carter page on, basically false pretenses, then the whole thing can collapse and you wonder about the agents motivation, what they knew, when they knew it and it is really very unsavory. steve: sure. the devin nunez's counterpart on the other side of the aisle, adam schiff. adam schiff was on "the view" from condolezza rice yesterday, around sitting across the table, hey, you guys, wrap it up. listen, geraldo. >> the american people are ready to move on. everybody wants to know what happened but as i also said to

congressman schiff, the intel committees also need to focus on what the russians did, how they did it. because the first time shame on them. next time shame on us if they can do it again. i think there is too little attention to what they actually did, how we're going to deal with it. steve: 30 seconds worth of feedings about that, her ruled dough. >> i think secretary rice is absolutely right. we want to know what russia did, how they did it, but for goodness sake there is no evidence that the president colluded, colluded with the russians. that is what this whole thing was supposed to be about. if the president as a candidate was not in collusion, criminal collusion with a foreign power, what is this about? >> politics. >> getting people trapped in perjury raps? is this about phony obstruction cases? is this about the tumult and disruption about the trump administration? it is indeed time to move on.

to preach about the blood of jesus. and his missage was so simple but so profound. it was that god loves you. he set forth hope for the world and let them know that all are welcome in the family of god. ainsley: yet his messages were just simple, honest. did he ever talk about politics and what would he say about where we are as a country today? >> you know, that was the thing with dr. graham, he always pointed everything back to jesus. i can remember so many different settings that were in a personal moment with a friend. he, at one time had said that he, at one time had said, when they were reading the bible to him, tears just began to stream down his eyes as they were doing it and he talked about jesus. whether it was in a political arena -- i never heard him personally talk about politics.

really harvested his seeds. they all preached jesus like he does. when you look at franklin and look at ann. i was with ann and with 7,000 people and preached jesus and talking with franklin. it is always the same. i studied so much how he did his altar call. i remember him talking about how he gave the illustration many people know it of the ant and he was trying to explain and he said, you know how can you save this ant? the only way you can do it to become an ant. he was saying how did god save humanity? he became god incarnate, god in flesh, jesus christ. he would say, you're invited. will you come down, will you come, will you accept this invitation to jesus? and to me it was the most profound. i personally used it where he would give three examples. steve: gotcha.

system isn't working and kids are not learning, can't get jobs, it comes back to the family. if everybody child was raised in a stable, loving home, so many problems we deal with would actually be solved at their source. brian: that means give up. we're never going to fix every family and we have to fix this problem yesterday, let alone wait for family values to take root again? >> well i just don't think that is right. i think, it is a long-term thing. we've allowed it to deteriorate over the long term. that doesn't mean you give up. actually there are practical things you can do to help families come together to stay together. brian: like what? >> you can support mayor rage, marriage is one of those issues no one wants to talk about. but if you look at the data when families break up, it is really clear it happens just around the time that children are born because it is an incredibly stressful time. if couples are married when they have children, it means they stay together longer. we can do things to help couples in those stressful situations. we can make marriage more of a

social norm. we can start to say it is important. that tax system, the welfare system, all of these things, actually undermine marriage. so there are things that we can do to help families come together and stay together. you're right, that is not going to fix something that happens next month but when are we going to start? it is such an important long-term problem. this ising something we need to talk about more. politicians need to pay attention to because is the most important issue i think facing america. ainsley: you're raising kids at home. what do you do at home? you emphasize how important it is to be a strong family unit. what do you teach your kids? >> well ainsley, the number one thing is time, is actually really making time to be together as a family, do those simple things, where you just you know, do a bedtime story every night. a lot of families don't do that anymore because they think they can put their kids in front of an app or ipad, whatever, it is just the same it is not. quite simple, old-fashioned things like spending time together.
