glasses. >> you can see where he put the eggs. >> making easter great again, heather. >> love it. >> nicely done. >> who is in it is this. >> we'll find out. sean spicer was the bunny one year. >> maybe it's him. >> nice to have you. >> have a great day. "happening now" starts now. >> bye. >> jon: fox news alert. president trump firing off a salvo of tweets on this monday morning. saying a deal on the dreamers is off the table. and urging republicans to go nuclear if necessary to pass tough new immigration laws. good morning to you. i'm jon scott. >> and i'm molly line. caravans of immigrants making their way to the u.s. sparking the president's tweet storm on immigration. president trump putting mexico on notice and walking away nafta unless they step up security. >> mexico has to help us on the
8:01 am
border. if they're not going to help us, it's a very sad thing between two countries. mexico has to help us at the border. and a lot of people are coming in because they want to take advantage of daca. >> john roberts is live on the north lawn with more. good morning, jon. >> good morning. the president is on the south lawn of the white house at this hour participating in the easter egg roll as he was signing some autographs for a group of children. he was asked if the daca kids as they're called should worry. the president said the democrats have let them down, really let them down. we'll have that sound shortly. the president driving the ball deep into the democrat's court over daca. blaming them that there was no fix before the deadline ran out, all the whole thing is held up in the courts. the president tweeting up a storm about this over the weekend and tweeting "daca is dead because the democrats didn't care or act and now everyone wants to get on the daca bandwagon. no longer works.
8:02 am
must build wall and security our borders with proper legislation. democrats want no borders, hence drugs and crime." the president is still irked that he didn't give the $25 billion for funding his wall project and the democrats didn't take him up on his offer to give daca recipient as path to legal status in exchange for wall funding and other immigration reform. sarah huckabee sanders was talking about it earlier on fox. >> if you want to see something get done and democrats refuse to put something on the table or work with the president to get anything done. they wanted to use daca recipients as political pawns. i think what has happened here is sad. the president made two incredibly generous offers that went far and above what previous administrations have done and the democrats still refused to make a deal. i think it's because we're getting close to an election. >> the president tried to turn the tables on the democrats.
8:03 am
the president also talking tough about immigration. pointing to that caravan of 1,500 honduran nash names making their way to the u.s. border. the president tweeting mexico has the absolute power not to let these large caravans of people into their country. they must stop them at the northern border, which they can do because their border laws work and not allow them to pass into our country, which has no effective border laws. the president suggesting that the people in the caravans are trying to take advantage of the daca. if they can get across the border into the united states, they can ask for amnesty claiming that they would be persecuted if they're sent back to honduras. that puts them in the system or at least most of them and they could stay in this country for months while their cases are being adjudicated or because families are only held for so long before they are released. they can disappear in american society. one other thing bubbling up this
8:04 am
morning at the white house, the white house confirming a kremlin report from earlier today that in their recent phone call, the president suggested to russian president vladimir putin that the two could meet here at the white house. press secretary sarah sanders saying that the president himself confirmed march 20, hours after his last call with president putin, the two dissed -- discussed a bilateral meeting at the white house. this is all in the wake of the poisoning of the russian spy in the u.k. the two will have a lot to talk about. >> that would be a visit to watch. john roberts, covering a lot of ground for us. thank you. >> thanks. >> the special counsel was named too soon. i would have rather had the senate and house intelligence committees commit their record.
8:05 am
when you have a criminal investigation, it's more difficult to get the congress to get the information to allow the public to understand what is happening. completely different goals of a special counsel versus congressional oversight. in this case, the most important thing is public disclosure and that is harmed. >> jon: that's republican senator ron johnson of wisconsin taking the big view of the russia investigation. saying the appointment of special counsel robert mueller jumped the gun. let's talk about it with bill mcgurn. is the senator right? >> he's absolutely right. what he's trying to do is draw a distinction between what special counsels do and look for prosecutions and indictments and what congress is supposed to do, get the story to the american appoi appointment. and what he talked about is for the new counsel to work with the i.g. the most important thing is that
8:06 am
we the people find out what happened. the fbi and justice has been dragging its heels on that. >> jon: if he's upset with the appointment of the special counsel, he need only go to the attorney general, jeff sessions and say, why? >> right. again, i think that the emphasis should be put on disclosure. the events of the last few days where mr. sessions mentioned that he does have a u.s. attorney with the power to prosecute and indict. what he doesn't have the unlimited mandate and no other cases like an inspector surveyor going out after his subjects. so the most important thing right now is getting the information out of the fbi and justice. they redacted the information they sent over to congress. that is one of the most important things right now. >> jon: because nobody knows the state of that investigation, everybody in washington is left twisting in the wind. >> if you mean the fbi
8:07 am
investigations and so forth, we're expecting the inspector general's report that tells a lot of things like why andrew mccabe was fired. clearly he must think there's indictments coming down. he has a go fund me account that is near $500,000. >> jon: for legal fees. >> yes. clearly he's worried about what is coming down. >> jon: so this mueller investigation, mueller doesn't have a boss. he can keep going as long as he wants. >> that's the question. if there's -- if it's really special, that's what people mean. raises constitutional questions of an executive branch appointee not having a real boss or so forth. rod rosenstein, the deputy a g. could circumscrap her and say these are your areas and put a time limit. but it's a perfect example of what senator johnson was saying. we don't know what mr. mueller has. right? the most important thing is to find out what did the russians
8:08 am
do in our investigation? it started out as a counter intelligence investigation and moved to criminal. to me this is disturbing when you investigate a crime, you should have the crime first, not the investigation and crimes follow. >> jon: right. it was about russian meddling in the election. now according to the indictments, we know paul manafort and rick gates are accused of some financial shenanigans. >> tax fraud. >> jon: but there's nothing yet. >> this is very dangerous for our -- look, he's been appointed. we have to let it play out. on these other issues, i applaud the attorney general for returning us to normal order about how these things are to be done. the special general's report will have a lot of detailed information about what went on. a lot of stuff we know. we know the inspector general. we know the texts between the fbi lovers, peter strzok and
8:09 am
lisa page. we learned about director comey's statement being prepared weeks before he implied it was. a lot of the stuff has come from him. >> jon: and it's changed so much the tone of this whole thing and raised so many questions about it in washington. >> absolutely. >> jon: thanks, bill. >> thank you. >> jon: molly? >> breaking this morning, china making their own move on trade. president chi slapping tariffs on $3 billion of u.s. imports hitting portion from wine to pork and scrap metal. u.s. and chinese officials say they're trying to stop the tensions from spiralling out of control but so far neither side is backing down. >> jon: new information on the terrible crash that claimed the lives of a family of eight in
8:10 am
california. their s.u.v. accelerated off of a cliff last week. now authorities say it might not have been an accident. police say electronic data from the s.u.v. shows it first stopped at a flat pull-off area on the coast and sped off the steep rocky face and plunged 100 feet in the pacific. the lack of skid marks led authorities to believe the crash was intentional. the entire family is presumed dead. three of the children are still missing. >> fox news alert. a show of force on the korean peninsula. the u.s. and the south korean armed forces have joint drills. details ahead. and plus he made national headlines in a deadly drunk driving case after his lawyers claimed he was too affluent to

>> jon: a fox news alert. take a look at the dow. not good news. down almost 300 points already on this monday morning. china has announced it's retaliating against the u.s. for the new steel and aluminum tariffs that the president has imposed. that may be part of the reason for the markets nose dive. still questions about facebook and its data mining activities. the dow not happy on this
8:15 am
monday. we'll continue to watch it and keep you apprised throughout the day. the texas man known for the infamous affluenza case is out of jail. ethan couch now out of jail after serving two years for violating probation. he killed four people when he was 16 years old. a psychologist helping him avoid prison time then by testifying couch's wealth prevented him from determining right from wrong. couch was released after his mother failed a drug test. a judge revoked her bond in a case where she's accused helping her son flee to mexico in late 2015. >> jon: a major american city seizing guns with the full force of the law as protests for stricter measures sweep the
8:16 am
nation. the police in seattle are con if is -- confiscating guns. joining me now is democratic congresswoman, debbie dingle from michigan. thanks for joining me. >> thank you. good morning. >> congress woman, i know you're the co-chair of a bipartisan group aiming to tackle gun violence. i want to get to that. let's start in seattle. there's an effort underway trying to take guns away from people that society believes shouldn't have them. it stems around extreme risk protection orders, erpo, family, police, people that think they're imminent dangers can ask that guns be confiscated. could this be a model for the rest of the nation? >> you know, molly, fred upton and i, the co-chair, are looking at introducing similar legislation with susan brooks from end at the national level.
8:17 am
this is very personal for me. i grew up in a home where a man shouldn't have had access to a gun. i remember some very frightening moments. there was no ability to deal with it. a family that knows that someone in their family could be a danger to themselves or to others needs to have a way to take that gun away. law enforcement needs it as well. it's called red flag laws. indiana, governor mitch daniels have supported it. it's been used 800 times. if somebody is a threat and you know they're a threat, you need to have the tools to take that gun away. >> molly: one of the big questions is people's rights. if someone is in danger, as a society, we wand to find a way to stop them from escalating and using it to members of society
8:18 am
especially children. the question is how do you make this effective so it works? it needs to work quickly in many instances. >> so the indiana law, which is we will be introducing a version of, law enforcement, the family members, has the ability to take the gun away. 14 days. you protect the due process and the person whose gun has been defended can make a case or defend themselves. you need to quickly in a domestic violence situation if there's a gun there, five times more likely chance that woman or child will -- the woman would be killed or the child in my own case was vulnerable. i remember hiding in the closet. the police wouldn't even respond to the phone call. we need to acknowledge in this society that there are some issues. we need to make sure that the tools are there so that local law enforcement, social workers can deal with the law enforcement. >> molly: one of the challenges,
8:19 am
one of the things they're looking at in seattle, a red flag that they look at, a multitude of 911 calls. so they look at the history of these people. we saw in the shooting in parkland, a long history of 911 calls. so how do you ensure that once something should work, a judge, due process is put in place, that it actually does work? >> well, that's what we're going to have to work on. you know, in the days since i was a child, people now acknowledge that there is a problem and that there's people that shouldn't have access to guns. that they do need to have some help. that's -- we have to remove the stigma from mental health in this country and have people willing as a community to work on what the issues are. law enforcement is trained to recognize when someone can be a threat to themselves or to the community. we've got to train people so that they have the skills necessary to recognize it. the courts are very important in
8:20 am
terms of protecting due process. >> congressman, part of heading up this working group, part of it is finding common ground. this issue has come to the forefront because the voices of the teen that's have marched have been so powerful and everyone is listening. how do you ensure all of the teenage voices are heard? not just those that the loudest or the most organized. a wide divergence of opinion across the country among all age levels as this goes forward and people will want to hear all sides. how do you listen to all sides of the issue? >> one of the things i've been determined on is equal number of republicans and democrats. by the way, my household, i lived with a man that shouldn't have had guns. i'm married to one of the strongest defenders of the second amendment in this country, a former nra board member. so i see both sides. right now myself, i'm going to schools all over the district talking to people, hearing all
8:21 am
sides. if we have the sink old argument, if you say oh, you're trying to take my guns away, we won't get anyplace. what fred and i and member of the problem solvers are saying, where can we find common ground? kids should go to school and feel safe. not worried about having to do a drill to hide in a closet. so we don't want to ban or change the second amount but we want to keep guns out of the hands of those that shouldn't and reduce gun violence. how do we change the tone of the dialogue to have a real conversation without the traditional that accomplishes nothing? >> debbie dingell thanks so much. it's a big challenge. >> thank you. >> jon: fox news alert. we showed you earliter easter egg roll at the white house today. the president was asked about daca and progress on that. let's listen.
8:22 am
>> mr. president, what about daca? >> the democrats have really let them down. they have really let them down. they had a great opportunity. the democrats have really let them down. it's a shame. now people are taking advantage of daca. that's a shame. >> jon: more on daca and the president's comments after a quick break. excuse me a minute... hi dad. no. don't try to get up. hi, i'm julie, a right at home caregiver. and if i'd been caring for tom's dad, i would have noticed some dizziness that could lead to balance issues. that's because i'm trained to report any changes in behavior, no matter how small, so tom could have peace of mind. we'll be right there. we have to go. hey, tom. you should try right at home. they're great for us. the right care. right at home.
8:25 am
you know what's not awesome? gig-speed internet. when only certain people can get it. let's fix that. let's give this guy gig- really? and these kids, and these guys, him, ah. oh hello. that lady, these houses! yes, yes and yes. and don't forget about them. uh huh, sure. still yes! xfinity delivers gig speed to more homes than anyone. now you can get it, too. welcome to the party. >> i think there's going to be a very challenging election environment. nobody has had a good off year election since 2002. so i think republicans will be well-advised to get ready. >> jon: that's tom cole warning his republicans to prepare for losses. saying republican candidates should focus on what the trump administration has accomplished so far after democrats already
8:26 am
won several special elections in normally republican territories. our media panel, joe concha, judy miller, a reporter, author and fox news contributor. they really notched it up especially on this week over the weekend with george stephanopoulus talking about how the democrats are going to sweep the house. is that a little over the top? >> i don't think so. it's not bias to point out that in 18 out of the past 20 elections the president's party has lost 33 seats in the house of representatives. and that the democrats only need to pick up 24 in order to win control of the house, which has profound ramifications for the president's policy and his ability to get anything done. so i think pointing out that if the democrats hold their 194
8:27 am
seats, it's likely that they will security control of the house and that an impeachment vote is more likely. that is not media mania or over the top. i think it's just history and predictions on the other hand. the president's popularity is rising. the economy is strong. anything can happen in politics. so i tend to look at what has happened in the past as opposed to the present and make predictions about the future. >> joe, before i get to you, i want to put up the results of the fox polling on the generic ballot. when asked if you are voting for a member of congress in your district right now, the democratic candidate wins 46 to 41%. look in october, with us a 15-point spread. the democrats had a 50 to 35% advantage. judy is right. the polls are getting tighter. but it does not look like a particularly banner year for
8:28 am
republicans coming. >> normally isn't. we look at precedent like judy talked about. you have to go back to 2002 when the incumbent party didn't lose eats. >> molly: it happened to president obama when he lost the house and the senate. now the shoe is on the other foot. we're talking about the mid-terms so much, we're more than 200 days away it from. we've been talking about it for six months. here's what's going to happen. after they're over and you have thanksgiving and christmas, guess what we'll be cover something the presidential election of 2020. the reason why i know that is because ted cruz announced early in 2015 that he was running. it was an avalanche from there. the news media focused on one election more than anything else for basically the next 24 months. we're race obsessed and i don't mean skin color. >> it's true. in washington, the conventional wisdom is, you can't get anything done in congress in 2018 because it's a presidential
8:29 am
election year. i'm sorry, an election year. >> yeah. that's part of what has frustrated voters. i think it's part of what makes voters angry and mistrust that institution. and almost by inference, by implication, you know, we somehow blame the media for that. we simply have to report on what has happened, what the trends and the past has been and what they're likely to be now. the democrats have great issues ahead. they have the parkland shooting, they have me too. they have the -- >> jon: social issues. >> social issues. >> and the they're ramping up and their base is mobilized. it's not good for republicans. >> there is an enthusiasm gap. >> jon: and the doug jones election. does that portray a big wave? >> no. roy moore was a flawed candidate.
8:30 am
when you're saccused of sexuall harassing teenagers. we have much prognostication coming. hundreds and hundreds before the 2016 election. 99.9% saying hillary clinton would win the election. how did that work out? i don't want to hear about predictions. we lost that card already, jon. >> jon: we'll try to hold them to a minimum here. joe concha and judy miller. thank you. molly? >> molly: the u.s. and south korea resuming joint military exercises. the move coming as the president prepares to meet with the leader of north korea, which has strongly opposed these military exercises in the past. and the president shelving talks on daca and slamming democrats on immigration. so what is the next step for dreamers? the political panel is on deck to discuss that next. >> is there a change in the president's immigration policy now to report?
8:31 am
8:32 am
we know that when you're spending time with the grandkids... ♪ music >> tech: ...every minute counts. and you don't have time for a cracked windshield. that's why at safelite, we'll show you exactly when we'll be there. with a replacement you can trust. all done sir. >> grandpa: looks great! >> tech: thanks for choosing safelite. >> grandpa: thank you! >> child: bye! >> tech: bye! saving you time... so you can keep saving the world. >> kids: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace ♪
8:34 am
8:35 am
correspondent, greg palkot joins us live from london. interesting timing here. are these military drills going to have any effect on the proposed summit between president trump and kim jong-un? >> hi, jon. yeah. the thinking is probably not despite the big numbers you quoted. they're being a bit down played this year while there's some lefty hardware involved as well, including the uss wasp with fighter jets on board. the exercises have been cut in half. and we're showing archived video right now because there's no television coverage allowed. in words of one of my contacts involved, in the exercises "we want diplomatic efforts to stay on track." for his part, kim jong-un says he understands the exercises
8:36 am
have to be conducted. he and state media say it's a rehearsal for war. over the weekend, kim jong-un was attending a k-pop girl back from seoul concert. he said he was moved by this. the summit involving kim jong-un and south korean president moon, that is set for april 27. another planning session later this week for that. and supposedly kim jong-un meeting with president trump in may. we haven't heard yet of any planning sessions for that. back to you. >> jon: did kim like k-pop? that's what we need to know. >> he was moved. he was moved, according to the quotes. >> jon: very good. all right. greg palkot joining us.
8:37 am
thanks very much. >> we're going to have to see. they had a great chance. the democrats blew it. they had a great chance. we'll have to take a look. mexico has to help us at the border. they flow through mexico, they come into the united states. can't happen that way anymore. >> president trump says no more to negotiations on democrat after a caravan of migrants are making their way from central america to the united states. right now federal courts are keeping the program operational months after then't decided to end to end treatment for dreamers and give congress a deadline to come up with a solution. let's bring in our panel. richard sower andgy anna caldwell is here. thanks for joining me. >> good to be here. >> molly: always a lot to unpack here. but let's start with one of the president's tweets. he says border patrol agents are
8:38 am
not allowed to properly do their jobs at the border because of ridiculous liberal democrats. laws like catch and release, getting more dangerous. caravans coming. nuclear option needed to pass laws. now no more daca deal, a lot going on there. i want to start with you, richard. he goes from the caravans, ending with the daca deal. we know the folks coming in the caravans, the immigrants cannot apply for daca. that's not how it works. but what is the president doing here covering all this ground? >> i wish i knew the answer but i don't. i think he's mushing the immigration issue together. one issue is border security where democrats he willing to work with the president on. the second issue is the cash and release law and the third issue is those that came here that want to be american, live the american dream, that work, go to house or serve in our armed
8:39 am
forces. we should do everything in our power to make sure they can stay here, this is not a democrat or republican issue. the reason they came to begin with, the president set an arbitrary deadline to end the daca program and now he's playing political football. >> molly: well, he kicked that facebook -- football in congress's direction. republicans must go to nuclear option to pass tough laws now. can republicans do it alone? can they potentially begin to get this done before the mid-terms? >> republicans can't do it alone and i have to respond to my distinguished colleague. this catch and release program was a policy created because there wasn't a budget there. so they wanted to provide something there. truthfully speaking, democrats declared there would be no deal
8:40 am
for daca. the president offered a pathway to citizenship for 1.8 million people. likely a lot more beyond the current 700,000 people that we know are on the daca program. so when it comes to this issue, democrats really have themselves to blame. he's offered time and time again, hey, i'm ready to make a deal on daca. >> molly: the finger pointing has gone both ways. >> gianno is my colleagued. thanks for the glasses comment. truth be told, when it comes to the dreamer things, democrats have been willing to negotiate. when willie gutierrez said we're willing to fund the wall, democrats are willing to move. what republicans have done is they have added more things. they want to end the visa lottery, family reunification. they want to come with generous offers. we'll fund the wall. allow the young people to stay here. president trump tries to add something else to it.
8:41 am
add something else to it. >> jon: both sides have the long wish lists. in theory, they could have come to a solution. white house press secretary raj shah said this morning. take a listen. >> a span of over 1,000 individuals going through mexico with the assumption they're going to come to the united states. we need to close the legal loop holes and the president is being compassionate and wants to deal with the daca population, but it takes two to tango. democrats have been unwilling to work with them on this issue. they've been on is sidelines playing politics from day one. >> molly: so we have very little time. gianno, if we can get a reaction from you. >> luis gutierrez doesn't have the power to negotiate with the president. that's what nancy pelosi and
8:42 am
schumer are for. daca was an unconstitutional program to begin with. >> molly: one final record, richard. >> it's absurd. president trump is in the way. nancy pelosi and chuck schumer want to work with him. democrats want to work with him. the president continues to play sticky twitter fingers while these young people are in limbo. it's sad. >> and what a dishonest response. >> good to see you, molly. >> good to be here. we have fun with you. >> molly: thank you. >> jon: now this. fox news alert from los angeles. a boy has been rescued more than 12 hours after falling into a drainage pipe at a park. plus, an ominous warning to president trump and his latest plans for american troops in syria. is it a good idea to order a troop withdrawal? >> we have isis on the ropes.
8:46 am
8:47 am
contact his family members. as you can imagine, they're hover welled with joy. he's also going to undergo decontamination in addition to additional medical aid. we want him to get the best medical aid immediately and for him to be reunited with his family. >> i'm sure the family will be thrilled. the teen was playing in griffith park. he was about a mile east from where he was last seen. >> this is the obama playbook. one foot in, one foot out. this is a disaster in the making. all of his military advisers said we need to leave troops in syria to calm down the conflict between turkey and the kurdish fighters that have helped us, make sure raqqa does not fall back in the hands of isil. >> that's lindsey graham warning president trump not to pull american troops out of syria too quickly. after the president said the u.s. would soon end military
8:48 am
involvement there. let's bring in general william boykin from the family research council. general, the president obviously is revelling in the suck sets that american forces have had in syria. isis has been defeated. is it time to pull the troops out and send them home? >> well, i'm all for pulling our troops out of iraq, afghanistan and syria at the right time. i think a precipitous pull-out would be disastrous. all we have to do so look at what happened in afghanistan when the taliban reemerged after what was probably a situation that was premature. >> jon: you have a complicated still on the ground in syria. you have assad's forces working there, the turks that would like to take a piece of the country.
8:49 am
you have the kurds interested in it and the russians as well. it would seem that pulling american forces out would only complicate things. >> well, it would. what we're doing is we're seeding territory to the russians and the iranians. we've had a tremendous impact on isis under trump's leadership with the change of rules of engagement and all of that. what he doesn't want to do is squander that now. i think that a premature pull-out would reverse everything that he's done. it's only a matter of time until isis will emerge probably stronger than it was before and they will have an incredible recruiting tool. that is being able to claim that they ran america out of syria. we do not want that to happen. i don't think that's what the president is looking for. i hope he's getting good advice from his national security advisers on staying the course. he talked about winning.
8:50 am
he has put in motion all the things we need to win. don't blow it now. that's my advice. >> he was also critical of president obama for, you know, authorizing the surge in afghanistan but also giving a date certain at which point that surge would end. some of these things do not come with a timeline attached. >> no, that's right. and look, i was critical of barack obama as well for setting a date and knowing that the taliban was just going to wait us out. he hasn't set a date, but i think he's coming awfully close to making the same mistake here. and look, i support this president. he's put us on a winning path to destroy isis. but he has to be very careful now not to go the same way that president obama did. it will be disastrous in my view. >> jon: retired general william boykin. great to have your expertise.
8:51 am
thank you. >> thank you. >> molly: more teachers working out in a protest over low pay. two states face a strike that is closing down their school. when i needed to create a better visitor experience. improve our workflow. attract new customers. that's when fastsigns recommended fleet graphics. yeah! now business is rolling in. get started at fastsigns.com. yeah! now business is rolling in. but how do i know if i'm i'm getting a good deal? i tell truecar my zip and which car i want and truecar shows the range of prices
8:52 am
8:54 am
