gratefully spent the evening with us. we will see you live from sacramento tomorrow with big news. good night from washington. i am shannon bream. heather: the president standing behind his proposed tariff on aluminum imports. >> our country on trade has been ripped off by virtually every country whether friend or enemy. we lost $800,000,000,000.00 and trade is not going to happen. >> i smelled alcohol on your breath. >> i have not had a drink. >> no doubt the hard left is energized and angry. i don't think those are the values of texas, where most texans are.

♪ heather: the streets of new york city coming alive in new york city at radio city music hall down the street from our studios on the avenue of the americas. amarillo, texas, big election in texas today. thank you for joining us on tuesday morning. the other big story, donald standing firm on his steel and aluminum tariff plan despite the onslaught of backlash from both sides.

kelly right is live with us for how canada and mexico could be major factors if this goes forward or not. >> if they don't renegotiate nafta they could be facing those tariffs but donald trump hadn't mentioned that and canadian minister justin trudeau spoke about these tariff issues, has every country angry about the plan. the president says he is not backing down, it would impose a 10% tariff on aluminum imports and 25% tax on steel blue she believes it is imperative to america's national security. >> people have to understand our country on trade has been ripped off by virtually every country in the world whether it is friend or enemy.

china, russia, people we think are wonderful. we may have friends but remember this. we lost over the last number of years, $800 billion a year. not half $1 million, not $.12, we lost $800 billion a year on trade. not going to happen. >> his determination to place tariffs on steel and aluminum, democrats afford him, republicans oppose him. a trade war. a spokeswoman for paul ryan, a statement that reads in part we are about the consequences of a trade war and urging the white house to not advance with this plan. and rust belt states like pennsylvania where steel and aluminum workers live democrat sen. bob casey supports the president tweeting the country is cheap on trade, pennsylvania workers lose. i urge the administration to follow through and take aggressive measures to ensure

our workers can compete on a level playing field. some organized labor leaders are in favor of tariffs and that could create popularity among republicans eventually. heather: donald trump have refusal to back down has some questioning whether he is threatening to start a trade war in order to stop another being waived with nafta. brit hume says there is more than meets the eye with the president's threat. >> these tariffs are going to happen. the question is whether they themselves cause as much having as some are predicting. the worry is what happens after that was the retaliation meets retaliation again from him despite comments about trade wars being easy to win, usually end with being a loser for everybody involved and my guess is he will pool back and this may all be another example of the president blustering talk

and threats and so on and it is less than meets the eye. this is something he promised to do during the campaign believes they what you will about donald trump does try to keep his campaign promises and he's trying to redeem another one. >> in 2000 you may remember george w. bush imposed similar tariffs on steel in an attempt to revive the industry in the united states but he then reversed his decision when the industry started seeing job losses, material shortages, production delays and increased costs. former president trump aid sam dunbar backing away from these bold statements defining a subpoena with special counsel robert mueller's russia probe. >> i am the first person to go out here and say i am not cooperating. the ideas of donald from collated with russia is a joke.

>> he says he would be more willing if mueller epstein limits the scope of the request which currently includes thousands of emails, texts and work papers with officials dating back to 2015. including roger stone, longtime advisor to donald trump but some say miller's probe is far from over. >> bob mueller is not only not winding down, he's gearing up. more indictments should be expected. what is interesting is the list of people who are not on the list who he wanted emails from, already has them. jared kushner, ivanka trump, gen. flynn. >> he was fired for racially charged statements on his facebook page which he denies. we will follow that story today. for the first time since taking

but we are not going to do that. >> the us azeri continues beefing up its presence in the western pacific, the uss carl s vincent of vietnam, first time an american aircraft carrier has gotten there since the middle of the vietnam war. >> demonstrates america's firm commitment to the indo pacific region. >> partnership is just down the road which is very valuable for both our countries and our navy. >> the military is gearing up for the annual us south korean wargames which north korea calls a rehearsal for invasion. they are set to kick off this spring. in london, fox news. >> much more on their meeting and benjamin and yahoo's visit coming up. extreme weather, another winter storm set to slam the northeast for second time in a week. 60 million americans in 20 states under winter storm alert.

>> that is not good. of the 20 that is the garbage truck caught on camera sliding sideways down an icy road in north dakota. firefighters near new york posted this video from friday up storm, the tree fell on top of the powerline missing those fruits. it is to remind people for the next storm how quickly things can happen. take heed of those warnings and be careful. space galago launching their largest earth orbiting satellite ever. >> 3, 2, one, ignition. >> the successful launch sending a satellite the size of a bus providing internet and television service. the 52 launch of their falcon 9 rocket. always cool to talk about that. is 2 minutes after the top of the hour and united front

against iran, the us and israel vowing to work together for peace in the middle east. our next guest says it is another win for donald from setting the tone for a growing alignment. hiding in plain sight was a new bombshell, the fbi clinton email scandal, the tip that the anti-trump agent never investigated and a disaster for democrats, the dream turned into a nightmare and could be a wake-up call for liberals?

heather: their dream becoming a democratic, the aca recipients taking aim at democrats after months of no action. >> the democratic party has never been on my side. in 2012, left us hanging by a

thread. >> signifying the length of time they waited for a resolution. the group staged a brief sit in locking doors to the dnc. the president weeking it is march 5th and democrats nowhere to be found on a 21. give them 6 months, they just don't care. where are they? we are ready to make a deal. the president is absolutely right, now that the deadline, democrats have 0 interest in fixing the problem. >> is not a nation democrats necessarily want to fix. this illegal immigrants is the most sympathetic group and if you take care of those problems and the problems that led to the creation of this group you lose a political messaging database both parties have these issues they strategically don't want to fix and this is one for

democrats where they don't want to fix it. >> all talk no action from nancy pelosi tweeting dreamers probed their dedication of our community more times than anyone can count, these americans deserve to live without fear. here and it's going nuclear threat, benjamin yahoo's white house visit, israelites leader calling the rogue regime the biggest threat in middle east and blaming the obama era nuclear deal. where does the us go from here? here dewayne is senior fellow at the hudson institute rebecca heinrich, thank you for joining us this morning. this particular visit was the fifth time the two leaders have met since donald from took office. >> they have a warm relationship which is a stark contrast to the relationship he had with pres. obama. they had a very chilly relationship for a number of reasons, the main one because donald trump dennis because pres. obama set out not only to

strike a deal with the iranian government that would supposedly rollback the nuclear weapons program but would legitimize air ran again, bring it ran into the international community, for the arabians with cash whenever freedom from sanctions and what that had the effect of doing was empowering it ran so he ran could continue its malign activities, spread missiles throughout the region. i saw some of the missiles the saudis have that were fired at them from yemen and they are irani and origin services all during the obama administration, nobody is at greater risk winner and is in power than israel. now that you have donald trump who is determined to rollback it ran its influence and cooperate with israel no wonder the two leaders have such a warm relationship. >> israel is also accusing ran of seeking to have a permanent military presence in syria as well. >> exactly right and he ran is everywhere in the region, not

satisfied with merely building itself up its military and ear and it continues to not only, there was the nuclear program but it continues to improve its missiles as well as those are the delivery systems if it did decide to violate the ran dealer breakout and finish its nuclear peace and president obama admitted he ran would likely continue its terrorism efforts, he was just hoping bringing air ran into the international community would moderate it and that has not had the effect. heather: he hoped to do that and further isolated israel from the united states. >> exactly right. israel was beating the drum saying this is ridiculous, the president of the ran is not a moderate and people continue to say he is a moderate and he is not. and yahoo continued to say that any of the big piece that is important to netanyahu that

donald trump did well is he moved the american embassy to jerusalem. that was a major sign of solidarity with israel, donald trump has great instincts on how to help our friends and time our enemies, pres. obama did not have good instincts on that. >> the president making the decision whether he will go to jerusalem for that. something we don't need it ran to become his north korea. that is something else that happened yesterday, south korea, north korea, in pyongyang talking about how to move forward with denuclearization. >> exactly right and a great point. north korea is the cautionary tale of what could happen with the ran. ran his north korea cooperate on their programs but the talks have begun with a couple south korean officials, with kim jong un, south koreans are optimistic this will continue, this diplomatic opening, the

limericks kicked off. is my read the north koreans are using this as a propaganda item. i don't think they are interested in having diplomacy with south korea but this will provide essential insight into the health of kim jong un, south koreans can talk to american officials about what is his mental state, what is his physical state, that will provide useful information. mary beckett will also be interesting to see if the joint military exercises were put on hold because of the limericks between south korea and the united states continue as planned after this meeting, interested to see what happens with that. appreciate having you here with us as always, have a great day. 20 minutes after the top of the hour, california mayor insisting she did nothing wrong when she sounded the alarm about immigration raids. >> what i did was my job as mayor of oakland and reflective of the values of the people i represent. >> hundreds of illegals that

awards was my the only person that watched? >> oscar ratings took a nosedive this year down 20% fostered 26.5 million viewers. a historic low like you said. as for the reason, many people speculate it is because all the political commentary is driving people away. >> they don't make films like call me by your name from money. we may come to upset mike pence. >> countless social media posts say they tuned out because the show is just too political. it should be about the movies that are nominated, not about politics. had enough on twitter, tweeting hollywood types like jamaica mo, kathy griffin, ever wake up, they are entertainers with little political influence and not activists. kathleen says when the audiences down to 0 they might figure out

why. another reason for the ratings dip might be the show is so long and no big blockbusters were nominated this year. >> the nra, a lot of controversy, gun safety and that type of thing but membership for the nra have soared after the florida high school shooting. >> a dozen gun rights organizations across the country told time magazine their membership has spiked since the school shooting. patrick parsons, head of georgia gunowners citizen is and i can attack started coming in on twitter, facebook and in the media we began to hear from people who didn't even own guns who wanted to join up, social media weighing in on this. people say it makes sense, as it should be, think how many are out there supporting the nra that are not even members. another twitter user just changed his membership to a lifetime membership. michael says i had a membership,

let it expire and just renewed it. when people have second amendment rights feel there might be a threat to them usually these gun rights organization memberships spike. >> the stoneman douglass high school band is performing at carnegie hall in new york city today. thousands signed a petition for a national holiday. >> a petition has 85,000 signatures now, it says let's get a national holiday for billy graham, he preached the gospel to more people and live audiences than anyone else in history so there's a lot of support for national holiday for this national treasure. >> thank you for joining us, appreciate it as always, time is half past the top of the hour and the midterms in a few hours, voters in texas will head to the polls how will this primary election shape what is to come? our next guest is the outcome

there 2014 level. every statewide race in texas was invested. that is not the case this year. there is republican enthusiasm. heather: donald trump has endorsed several candidates, saying i want to encourage all my many texas friends devote in the primaries, sen. ted cruz and dan patrick, atty. gen. kim paxton, they are helping me to make america great again, voter lior on march 6th. will that help these candidates? >> you got to remember the trump surge in 2016 came in rural counties and all the numbers he reported are from the top 15 urban counties that report earliest, texas, 254 counties, 239 counties still to go and kill these that are excited about donald from, a tweet like that could have an impact and effect turn out so we will see what happens, could change a lot. every 20 we turned out the uptick, democratic voters in texas, there has been an uptick

in democratic candidates as well. >> democrats had a concerted effort, back to 2014 it seems every couple years democrats get excited we are going to turn texas blue. wendy davis had a big rally, same kind of thing but they set up an organization that in 2018 did a good job going out recruiting candidates in every race, they coordinated for the first time, absentee ballot, early vodaphone having an impact and that is why they are having the impact they are. the first back and forth between the 2 parties, the democratic party has been nonexistent classical cycles. of the 21st of the 2018 primaries, can't believe we are at this again was what will this spell out in terms of the primaries? >> it shows republicans you can't expect your voters to turn out.

you got to run an aggressive coordinated absentee ballot early vote program. a lot of votes will be cast, 50% files to 60% will be cast early, the trend will continue. you have to target those voters and get them out early. it will be there for you. republicans have taken a lesson from that and be more aggressive than the rest of the cycle. of the 20 take a lesson from what donald from did in the presidential campaign. check back with us after the election. it is 20 minutes until the top of the hour. flying on this plane packed with people, what sparked passengers to lose control. a sign of respect for soldiers at stake. the iconic crosses at arlington national cemetery ripped out of the grounds. and outraged veteran joins us

would have us believe america was founded in a black amoral vacuum. it is all throughout the making of this great country. why do we have memorials in the first place if not to honor the forgotten heroes, and likewise, crosses on the overwhelming majority of veteran memorials, you cannot separate america from christianity so try as they might christianity is a significant part of our culture. of the 20 glad we are bringing this to people's attention. here is what the american humanist association said and government more memorial should respect all veterans not just those from one religious group, the cross unconstitutionally endorses christianity and favors christian soldiers to exclusion of all others. >> it is an autoimmune
