under consideration. important about this title 32 means these troops will be under federal pay and status but under state control. so ultimately governors making decisions right now as far as whether their troops are involved or not. some states also saying we're not going to be involved. it will be interesting to see how governors react. abby: that cooperation so important when a president makes a decision like this working with the states and working with the governors is key. and this is not the first time this has happened by the way. you understand. this this happened most recently under president obama back in 2010. ed: president obama only had about 2,000, 2500 national guard troops. president trump talking about 4,000. that's an interesting increase. pete: that's a big increase and george w. bush did it in 201,612,000. abby: 2006. pete: excuse me. abby: there didn't seem to be the outrage and lack of cooperation from governors wanting to put this in

place. pete: governors from oregon and montana saying we are not going to participate. waiting on jerry brown in california. that's a big one. ultimately if governors are running this and volunteering to send a certain number of troops in coordination with the pentagon. got to get to 4,000, may be states that say you have a large national guard need your troops. there could be a show down. ed: president only threw this out there a few daysing and now already is acting and putting it into place. secretary mattis signing the order last night just days after the president said he is going to do it. abby: dhs helping as well. that's going on. the president signing a memo to ending to catch and release policies. attorney general sergs ordering a zero tolerance at the border there are a few different things going on all at once. pete: we heard about the catch and release program in light of the caravan that was headed to the border. a lot of people talking about we have this ridiculous catch and release program where illegals are

caught are released before their court date. ed: a foot on this side of the border and they can be released and all of a sudden they are here. abby: it could be a couple years. a border patrol guest on last weekend. that's what he said. pete: brandon judd. this is what the end of the catch and release program might be. i don't know if we can go back to the original one. there we go. the release release immigrants caught in u.s. can't be released while cases play out in court. departments will share information. u.s. attorneys along the border to prosecute all referrals from dhs for illegal entry. the key here: the order is telling dhs to submit a report within 45 days. a civilian and military. as well as personnel. if you are going to make the policy detained at the border. you are detained until your court date. some of these folks have been waiting a year or two. then they are released and supposed to come back to court and they never do.

ed: they are just out somewhere. pete: if you are somewhere, have you got to have somewhere to hold them. don't have these facilities yet. come down to logistics. ed: will the the president and the justice department in the last week also moved forward on this new policy where immigration judges have to meet new quotas. they have to hear more cases than they were hearing before. the union for these immigration judges had been saying no, no, no, not such a big work load. let's keep the number down. thought trump administration is saying no, you have to increase the work load so there can be more deportations, interesting. abby: what's interesting in all of this is how little people knew about the laws in this country. i think that's the big take await a minute even the president seemed to be shocked by the way the system works. and now we're sitting here wondering what do we do to change that? how do we make it so we live in a country where there are laws that make sense that allow people to come here the right way to live that american dream. we have got to starts somewhere. pete: you are exactly right. a lot of people thought the illegal action of crossing

the border comes with a certain set of consequences. you may get deported but this zero tolerance policy is now putting new penalties on crossing the border. so, if you cross the first time illegally, it's up to six months. and if you cross a second time, you get up to two years is what can you be hit with and it becomes a felony. that's where the zero tolerance comes from. you come back again, now you are a felon which really undermines your ability to stay here at all. ed: which is why abby's point is so important. we have conversations about daca and broader comprehension reform. what kind of new laws and regulations are we going to come up with. we have not for years been enforcing the laws on the books. the ones that exist right now are not being enforced. abby: all of this is going on. last night there was a lot. at least one migrant hopped the border. this was last night. in less than two minutes. if you are thinking about going over the border, last night was probably not the night to do it. so here's a photo of this man trying to get over that

wall. ed: takes less than two minutes. pete: one buddies, one helping him up, the other is a look jowd. border wall 20 feet high. six meters. he hops up, pushed over, jumps over and indicative of if you don't have proper barriers they can still not be effective. when i read this article. it's from afp. there is a line in there that struck my. it said the guy that jumped the wall disappeared into the dessert running toward a group of houses just visible on the horizon. got me thinking about the people who live in those houses? what about the american citizens that live in the houses and every single day people are jumping into their backyard, illegals, running to hide amongst those houses. that's a life lived on american soil. and if you are not controlling that part of the border, their lives are under siege, that's the forgotten men and women. the citizens of this country who deserve to be thought of more than the guy illegally jumping the fence. abby: a lot of this conversation started with this buzzfeed article where have you 1400 my grants

coming over. many from honduras, in caravans. so, people are wanting an update to where they are, are they in mexico and able to get over that border? from what we learn they sort of dispersed. many are going their own way now. they have not completely dismantled. we will keep an eye. ed: still a caravan gotten smaller not diss banded as some of the news reports wednesday and thursday suggested. pete: probably got the groups that say we are staying with the visas they have got in mexico. other group saying using those 20 days to get to the border. if you have been exposed the way have you by the president of the united states and of course you are not going to travel with 1,000 people. break out in small groups and see where that goes. ed: another story people are talking about, remember that tarmac meeting during the 2016 campaign during the summer? loretta loretta lynch was the sitting attorney general for barack obama it happened in phoenix at the airport. form everywhere president bill clinton just happened to be on another plane right

nearby. and initially we were told, remember, of course, was right in the middle of the hillary clinton email investigation by the fbi, which overseen by the attorney general loretta lynch at the time. we were told, you know, bill clinton and loretta lynch, they were talking about their grand kids and about their golf games. abby: just a casual conversation. ed: fbi investigation didn't really come up. months and months later james comey said. this. >> i'm not picking on the attorney general, loretta lynch, ohio like very much, but her meeting with president clinton on that airplane was the capper for me. i then said you know what? the department cannot by itself credibly end this. pete: on monday loretta lynch will be giving an interview to ntsb news talking about this very subject. ed: her version of events. pete: her version of events. why is that curious timing? abby: shield like to get ahead. ed: of what? >> james comey leak. he has a book coming out. he may very well talk about this. obviously she wants to get

very clever. i'm going to put tariffs on. they all scream please don't, please don't, mr. president. okay i won't. you know who is the boss in that relationship. pete: european union obviously impacted by the unfair trade practices of china. they see this president standing up and saying your state-run businesses, the way you subsidize them. all the things that you do lead to i want electric actual property theft. is europe just going to free ride off of america's willingness to stand up to china or is there a chance they actually join with us to take on these practices? >> i don't see it to be honest with you the european union is so in the grip of the big global businesses arguing the globalist agenda that they have kind of forgotten what national interest is all about. as i say steel. what chinese have done with steel is to close down steel production all over the west. they did it deliberately. they did it willfully. it wasn't about money it was about strategy. we become reliant on china in the future for steel. we have got to stand up. i have to also say the world trade organization needs to

examine what it's doing. they have let china be part of this club and consistently break the rules. we kind of need more trumps around the world. abby: do you think he really wants a trade war though or is this the art of the deal style where you throw it out there and walk it back? >> trump is a negotiator. talk hard, maybe concede a bit. he is a much clever than anyone gives him credit for. the guy is playing chess and thinking two or three moves ahead i have no doubt. pete: all right. nigel farage. great to have you on. we appreciate it. abby: michelle obama's about trump is a bad met for. >> eight years that barack was president, it was sort of like having the good parent at home. and now, perhaps, we have the other parent. abby: which parent is that? is it fair? we are going to debate next. ed: even more anti-trump texts are revealed between those fbi officials. why haven't they been fired yet?

presidents we have now. donald trump was a different type leader than barack obama. when you look at parents and what we know as a parents what we do know are parents people we can look up to and people we can be proud of. i don't think many people are proud of the type of leadership that's occupying the white house here today. pete: katrina, rasmussen shows the president's approval rating for the first time over 50%, at 51%. there seem to be a few people that like eating candy if you will. if candy is so bad. lay out for us your view of that analogy. >> well, look, i'm very proud of the parent that's in the white house because i know his children. and they are amazing people. but this was just truly, pete, this was liberalism, elitism on full display to constantly insult and demean the american people. without any accountability of their own. i mean, for a second has michelle obama ever asked herself the simple question of maybe the middle class voters believed me when i told them that hillary

clinton wasn't fit to be in the white house because she couldn't take care of her own house. or perhaps maybe obama should be asking himself if the voters in pennsylvania believed him when he told everyone that hillary clinton was bought and paid for by special interest. and campaigned on her against nafta using her own statements from 1996. perhaps, people just believed the obamas and that seems to be the missing chapter in hillary clinton's book what happened. the title simply is the obamas. >> you want to make this about hillary clinton but i want to make this about president obama compared to donald trump and this administration. for 8 years we did not have the conversations we are having now about this white house. i don't think parents had to worry about what tweets were coming from the president of the united states and whether they want their children to be able to read those tweets or hear about those tweets on the news. >> i think most parents really don't care about what the president tweets. people care when their children are shot and killed. >> that's ridiculous for you

abby: thanks, pete. another text message between the love birds in the fbi raising questions about what they possibly withheld in the russia investigation. ed: during a 2016 trip to london to interview a key witness. fbi agent peter strzok texted fbi lawyer lisa page i think we need to consider the lines of what we disclose to doj in the justice department. for example, the last stipulation notes we will not disclose. abby: strzok has sings been demoted after previous texts came to light. many are asking why haven't they been fired yet? ed: let's get an answer joining us with his reaction live chris sweker. you have seen him before. served 2 24 years as fbi special agent. chris, let's first remind our viewers about what was going on between these two officials in terms of the anti-trump text messages and how unusual you think that is or maybe it happened august the time. i don't know. you were there for 24 years. walk us through it. >> i certainly hope it didn't happen all the time.

i never saw that type of bias in an investigation. so, we know what they were texting because that information was released by the inspector general. and if you look at the inspector general within doj. it's like internal affairs. they oversee all of the justice department agencies who also have their own office of professional responsibility. now, the ig was given a mandate in january of 2017 to look at all of the actions of these agents and support staff leading up to the election. and prominent within that, of course, is the interaction between page and strzok. but there is a whole lot of other things that ig is look at. abby: what does it take then to get fired from the fbi? you look at this specific story. many people are scratching their head wondering why they weren't. >> i think this is part of a much broader investigation by the ig. and i just don't think they want to piecemeal it out. there is a lot to look at. a lot of -- there is a lot

of investigation that's been done over the last year. and i just don't think -- you know, mccabe notwithstanding, i don't think the ig wants to piecemeal out the things that's going to happen. it's very complicated because have you potential criminal prosecutions mixed in with some possible disciplinary action. i think it's going to be very explosive. abby: how do you think it will end? >> i think we are going to see at bare minimum we will see a lot of disciplinary actions. i see page and struck getting fired. i see other people like mccabe probably getting more than not just disciplinary action but, you know, we look at the allegations of altering documents. being in the tank for the clinton campaign, actually smintinmanipulating the. i think there is potential for criminal prosecution here. ed: remember, peter strzok was overseeing, he was basic lit lead fbi agent in the hillary clinton email investigation. meanwhile, he is sending these text messages to his girlfriend that are saying,

you know, things like they are saying back and forth. i was in the walmart in rural virginia. i could smell the trump voters. this disdainful kind of stuff. meanwhile that man on the left is overseeing the investigation hillary clinton running against donald trump. what happens to him he gets moved to the h.r. department. is he in charge of human resources right now. >> yeah. these personnel actions are tricky. in the civil service, it's really difficult to just fire somebody. there has to be a whole deliberative process behind it. much like what happened with mccabe. doj is going to send it across to the opr office of professional responsibility within the fbi. candace will heads that up. she is a professional been around for 14 years. she will make some recommendations and decisions there that will go up to the director chris wray. it ends uit is a very drawn out process. as i just said i'm not discounting the possibility of criminal prosecutions here for possible

obstruction, you know, on a services wire. mail fraud or something like that. ed: sweker. interesting. abby: why a lot of people have lost their trust in the justice department. mark zuckerberg gets ready to testify before congress over the facebook data scandal. you would have to pay to keep your personal information private. kurt the cyberguy on next about that. ed: unbelievable. jason chaffetz, reince priebus. california congressman duncan hunter to talk immigration all here live coming up. ♪ ♪ and the wolf huffed and puffed...

we always do. begin with a fox news alert. arizona and texas national guard troops start deploying to the border. they started overnight. this is something the president talked about all week long. and now he is taking some action. pete: dod, defense secretary james mattis signing a deployment order allowing for up to 4,000 national guard troops to be a part of the mission on the southern border. this coming as last week we reported on the caravan. there has been a lot of talk about the fact that the trump administration said the number of attempted border crossings up by 200 percent month to month since march of last year. there is this feeling of eminence and states are already pitching. in have you got texas saying they will send 250 national guard members by monday. arizona 150. i will be clear, this is a title 32 mission, which means federalized state troops, which mean governors have a lot of control over when and where troops go. but ultimately the feds are paying for it and a lot of focus on the border. abby: that coordination is so key, ed. not all governors are wanting to implement.

this i was listening to the governor of oregon saying this is not something looking at. ed: for the last year we have been hearing the trump administration say border crossings are way down because of these policies. now you are saying border crossings are way up. pete pee attempted border policies. a lot of them interdicted. a sense get in before the border is sealed. when you continue to have this pattern of well we want to make a daca deal, we want to have a wall. we want to control the border. that uncertainty is invent sizing people to make the dash while they can. abby: because you have the catch and release policy. basically once you get through out border and say i need a safe place to go, then you are able to be released until the courts figure out what to do. and that could take up to a number of years. ed: on this side of the border you are released and supposed to go back to court within weeks or months. sometimes it takes a year or longer. and many times this migrant that comes across is basically here illegally. doesn't go to court. so they stay in the country. they stay here. pete: we have no way of monitoring them. abby: the president just signed a memo ordering the

end to policy. the end to catch and release. his attorney general jeff sessions now ordering zero tolerance at the border. so they're crashing down. they are cracking down hard. if you were trying to cross the border last night it was probably a place you did not want to be. ed: immigrants caught in the u.s. cannot be released while their cases play out in court. they have got to be detained, basically. departments will share information as well. that's often a big problem where one part of the government doesn't know about someone who is here illegally. federal prosecutors to make prosecuting criminal immigration offenses a priority. put it to the top of the list. u.s. attorneys along the border are going to prosecute all referrals from the department of homeland security of illegal entry. so they have got to get better at this, government officials. and i think the administration is trying to do that say, look, everyone has got to start talking to each other and we have got to start coordinating it to stop the number of illegal immigrants coming across the border. pete: there is two parts. catch and release which you

talked, about ed, someone gets their foot in the country. the current -- before this new memorandum, you could be released for a couple of years and then expected to voluntarily appear back oftentimes which doesn't happen. there is a de facto non-policy. this catch and release policy, it also the memorandum says that dhs has to submit a report to this president within 45 days about how they are going to do it. if you are catching and not releasing, that means you are holding while they get their day in court or review of asylum or whatever they're trying to do. ed: u.s. taxpayers are paying to keep the folks who are here illegally detained, fed, all the rest of it. pete: a lot of people will point out we are also paying for a lot of the welfare benefits of illegals that come here and stay as well. the cost benefit thing is a little murky. if you are paying to deport them, that's a different thing. second issue is zero tolerance. right now you have made this point, abby. we didn't have our arms around what these policies really were. abby: i don't think so the majority of american people fully understood pause they

weren't articulate you had at the top levels. this all started from the buzzfeed piece about these migrants coming over, many of them from honduras through mexico. now they are being dispersed and we are following that one closely. i think people are scratching their heads saying i didn't realize that this was the policy. i didn't realize if you put one foot over the border, you are said i need a safe haven that you are basically here until they figure out what to do with you. as you said, taxpayers are paying for that a lot of people are mad at the policies that have been put in place up until now. by the way, this is not the first time that national guard troops have been sent to the border. you look at reaction to what president trump has done. and people seem to be up in arms. but you look throughout history, even most recently president obama back in 2010 sent 1200 national guard troops for the drug war. 2006, g.w. bush 6,000 national guard troops to the border. pete: no stays rejected those requests back 2006 and 2010. oregon, nevada saying we don't want any part of this position. i don't want to see states become resistance to the

commander-in-chief when it comes to defending the sovereignty of our country. ed: that caravan by the way, there were all these news reports saying mexico is breaking it up. and, you know, all is going to be well. and it turns out well, it's disbursed a bit. but the caravan is still moving. if it was 1,000 to 1300 people, presumably it's only a couple or few hundred people. we still don't know where they are going to wind up. some were headed towards the southern border. remember that original buzzfeed story about this. again, some reports suggesting around wednesday that it was dispersed. and it was broken up. but it's not. pete: some of this, again, these policies it week, the impetus of that reality, smaller groups still making a dash for the border and asylum. maybe the policies will be in place by then. zero tolerance means the second time you come through this country illegally it's going to be a felony up to two years in prison which they are hoping would be a deterrent as opposed to the current policy which is effectively a slap on the wrist. abby: there is a lot going

on. you wake up this morning think that's going on. national guards are being sent to the border. also dealing with china, dealing with russia. north korea there is a lot. so the president putting more tariffs on china. he says make us much stronger but pay off in the end. shear what he said. >> i'm not saying there went be a little pain but the market has gone up 40%, 42%, so we might lose a little bit of it. but we're going to have a much stronger country when we're finished. and that's what i'm all about. we have to do things that other people wouldn't do. so, we may take a hit and, you know what? ultimately we're going to be much stronger for it. pete: this is a showdown. this president is willing to play brinks manship with china and say hey, we propose i had 50 billion. they propose i had 50 billion. we are proposing 100 with. what does china do next? they are also hoping to bailed coalition of the willing with other countries to build a block of countries china, no more

unfair trade practices. evidence is saying we might take a short-term hit. we have the ability to level the playing field. finally after decades and decades of china eating our lunch and playing by different rules and pretending like they are a developing nation and playing at the top level. ed: hit over 700 points yesterday. there is volatility. abby: there is volatility and no one knows where this is going to end. that's how the president likes to do things. he likes to keep us on our toes and people are concerned about a potential trade war with china if it ultimately gets that far. we had nigel farage on the show earlier this morning. we asked him where he thinks this will go and how president trump will be able to handle all of this. here is what he told us. >> trump is the negotiator. you know, talk hard. maybe concede a bit. he is much cleverer than anyone ever gives him credit for. the guy is playing chess. is he thinking two or three moves ahead. that i have no doubt. ed: that's why the markets may calm down next week they will see this is the president pushing china hard saying enough, level the playing field here. that's what the american

people appreciate largely, which is standing up to china for the first time in a long time. abby: i do think the president needs to articulate though exactly what he wants china to do to change their behavior. we talk about identity theft and those sorts of things. but what do they actually need to do? so that we don't go to a trade war? this is a place no one wants to be. pete: a lot of compliance with basic wto standards which they are not in compliance with at all. it's not free trade because it's not fair trade. if they come in compliance we are on a level playing field. i hope he plays even more brinks manship. tariffs are proposed by the way. they are not in place. keep fighting and bring china to their knees. why not? it's about time. abby: we will see. a lot 6 news this morning. we do want to bring you other headlines we are following closely. starting with a fox news alert. and a serious one. 14 killed in a horrific bus crash carrying a canadian jr. hockey team while driving to a game a semi collided with the bus carrying players between the ages of 16 and 21 along with

hillary clinton. good morning philippe. >> good morning, ed. ed: what happened at that meeting in arizona on the tarmac? >> well, loretta lynch has already actually discussed this when it happened within days. i mean, it sounds crazy, you and i travel and everyone watching travels and you think who walks around, you know, runwayst without those big orange cones. but, you know, when you are the former president of the united states or the governor of california which she bumped into. basically bumping into people at the supermarket as crazy as that sounds. she was flying on a u.s. government jet that has a very distinctive blue and white united states of america emblazened on it and he said who is it? and i know it sounds ridiculous but he is bill clinton and he said let's go see who it is. ed: that's pretty good impersonation. >> believe me, believe me. there is no one who would more not have done that than the people at the clinton campaign. but there is no one who knows better that all did he

was like hey, you got any food in here? ed: you are right. on one hand it does sound strange like oh, gosh, we all travel all the time and bump into famous people. on the other hand, bill clinton's wife at the time was under fbi investigation on the email server, fair or unfair. and the attorney general oversees the fbi. so shouldn't a former president have been a bit more careful about going -- because it wasn't a five minute meet and greet. as i recall it was half hour or 40 minutes. >> it was more than a few minutes. i think it was somewhere between 20 and 30 minutes. everyone in hindsight wish it hadn't happened starting with loretta lynch, starting with bill clinton. and the notion of what this has turned into about what was discussed what happened there, the people who suffered most for that encounter were secretary clinton and by extension the clinton family and the clintons because of what happened from there was it looked tainted. the first thing that was said by loretta lynch was it was unfortunate.

and i am going to in an abundance of caution, i'm going to make sure that whatever jim comey and the career officials bring to me as a recommendation i am going to accept it. ed: as you said tainted. this is what james comey said happened. watch. >> i'm not picking on the attorney general, loretta lynch, ohio like very much, but her meeting with president clinton on that airplane was the capper for me. i then said, you know what? the department cannot by itself credibly end this. ed: if she has already address i had this and they were talking about grand kids and golf games, felipe, why does she have to come out now because james comey is about to come out on a book tour and everybody wants to get their story straight. >> i wouldn't say story straight but clearly because of the book. he has a book coming out in a week. there is going to be a lot of finger pointing. people want to make it clear, i would take what she is saying or wanted to say as reinforcement that there is no there there, she wants to say straight out it was

absurd but this is what happened. look, i hope she comes on fox and says the same thing. ed: well, and finally. >> i hope she comes on fox and doesn't attack you for your athletic prowess. ed: i have 10 seconds. that's funny. which is what did they talk about? i you want to get it on the record from the clinton side? did they just talk about grand kids. >> i think it was chitchat. i know from them there was food set out and they did a little grazing of the like cheese tray. he hired her 20 years earlier. ed: it was a buffet. it wasn't about the investigation. to be continued. felipe, than philippe,. >> thank you, ed. ed: coming to tears telling how much tax cuts meant to her and her family. she and her husband are here live next. >> i just want to say thank you. i said i wasn't going to cry. this is a big deal, these tax cuts are a big deal. thank you for fighting for us. excuse me a minute...

did. what was their reaction to that event and just wanting to be president is that something they want to do offer all of that? >> oh, yes, ma'am. they were so excited. they just kept going on and on. and then when we left the facility there, they said, you know, when the president said that to me, i just thought wow, that's such an encouragement. that encourages me so much. to hear our 10-year-old say that and lennon, our 7-year-old. he is following up right behind him. they were just so excite you had. it's a real goal for them. they really want this, you know. so we're going to be right behind them the whole way. abby: i have no doubt they both have some bright future ahead with great parents like both of you. jessica and tony thank you so much for what you do and thank you for being on this morning. really great having you. >> thank you. >> thank you so much for the opportunity. abby: coming up on the show, a chicago suburb moves to make assault weapons legal. they claim it will make their town safer. are they right?

now they are having him come back a third time to read. i will tell you, you asked the question. what is it that you think coming should not see? and there is not a really good answer to that and congress, the american people fund it and their representatives ought to be able to see that gowdy nunes, you know, mike conway. they have the highest security level there is. but they are hiding this. ed: s. it redacted because it's sensitive or redacted because they don't want to malfeasance. >> we americans with disabilities acted because it's embarrassing and don't want light to be shed. abby: that's not a good reason. pete: his people saying we are trying to do the west we can. we have doubled the amount of agents to look at the documents chairman goodlatte. anyone can look at fisa applications. do you feel like they are acting in good faith at doj? >> unfortunately that's void of fact and with truth.

actually found this. and this meeting on the tarmac was days before bill clinton's wife was due to interact with the fbi now we know there were months before that that james comey and his crew were actually drafting the exoneration. it does -- i mean it's highly suspicious. loretta lynch, i think, it's my guess she is getting out of this because of the book tour. probably more importantly the inspector general report is going to come back on this. unfortunately horowitz and the inspec inspector general ate department of justice have been looking at this well more than a year may you might see that report. pete: do you think there might be daylight between loretta lynch and james comey. he said he didn't like the fact that that meeting occurred. preempting the book and this is what really happened. preempting the book. comey came out and said oh he was furious about this meeting. he had been drafting the

exoneration for months before that he stood before the american people. do you remember what he told everybody? nobody at the department of justice knows what i'm going to say? that's not true because his whole cast of characters was out there talking about it. ed: this is heresy. you are questioning saint comey. abby: going to be a busy few weeks ahead. great to see you. abby: turning now to other headlines we are following closely this morning. ice agents arresting 97 illegal immigrants in what some are calling the largest workplace raid in a decade. the round up happening at a meat processing plant in east tennessee. immigration advocates saying most were from mexico. this coming as the trump administration cracks down on employers who unknowingly hire undocumented immigrants. all right. take a look at this. dash cam video showing a fiery high speed chase crossing state lines starting in indiana. a suspect taking off in a stolen jeep. speeding up to 120 mile-per-hours into michigan. flames shooting out from the

unanimously to ban the purchase, possession, and manufacture of so-called assault rifles and high capacity magazines claiming it will make the town safer from mass shootings law abiding residents have until june 13th to get rid of their weapons or face a fine up to $1,000 per day. here to react, chicago native and fox news contributor geno caldwell. thanks for being here this morning. appreciate it chicago has a gun problem. have you experienced that firsthand in your family. deer field is different though, you were middle class community hasn't had a murder in five years. yet they sabaning ar-15s is going to make a difference. is this about safety or is this a statement? >> well, i think it's a pr move. by the way, i saw the previous segment i challenge you and ed hen troy a basketball tournament. we're moving on though. pete: you are on. >> we're here. we're here.

moving on though, this is legitimately to me a pr situation and i tell you, couple different reasons. one, if you look at the data simply put from 2012 to 2016, how many murders have deer field, illinois experienced? zero in each year. this isn't a city which has issue with gun violence, to the contrary, actually. it's a very safe city. safer than 80 plus percent of american cities throughout the country. you look at those numbers, you look at the data simply put. you know out of a town of 19,000 people. there is probably one, maybe two that actually owns the ar-15. so, this isn't something that i think is a legitimate issue for the town and something that they really shouldn't be dealing with. pete: begigeno toll yourgene to. hope state and national leaders take steps to make our communities safer. she is basically say would

he go hope this spurs others, acknowledging this is about a larger point, not her city. >> right. yeah. and i think that's where we run into a larger problem. because you are utilizing taxpayer dollars to make a political statement. and considering all the violence that happens in chicago and things that happen in parkland, florida, i don't think this is an appropriate time to try to make politics out of a legitimate situation that impact people's lives. that's exactly what this mayor is doing. so, when it comes time for the voter to think about who their mayor is going to be, you want somebody who is going to run a marketing campaign or want somebody who is going to look at your initials a very serious and legitimate way? i think that's the question for the city of deer field residents at this particular point. pete: gianno, in your family have you experienced gun violence. guns are supposed to be tightly restricted inside the bounds you have chicago. yet, we see gun violence there. is getting rid of guns the answer or is responsible gun

ownership the answer? >> i'm always go to the latter, response cybil gun ownership and yes i experienced it with my brother who almost lost his life and died in his arms i understand what's involved here. i tell i even after that situation occurred with my brother last year during memorial day his biggest regret is not having his own gun. best friend lost his life and literally died in his arms. >> he in this country has the right to legally owned firearm just as much from a state where can you carry conceal or open carry. that's the debate we are having in this nation. gianno caldwell, thanks for getting up early in california. >> thank you. pete: we will see you on that three-point contest. i don't know it i want any part of it? >> absolutely. we're here. pete: parents in north carolina are outraged after their kids bring home a paper explaining white

guide for parents focusing on racial equity in society.

but is this appropriate to send home with students? here to discuss is former vanderbilt professor and candidate for the mayor of nashville, carol swain. professor, thanks for joining us this morning. >> good morning. pete: and good luck in your mayoral race. so, if you were a parent, or anybody that sees this come home, what's behind the ideas that the psa should be reminding kids that they have white privilege? >> well, it's part of the ongoing indoctrination that i believe is designed to instill shame and guilt among white youth. i believe it's inappropriate. i would not want my children or grandchildren exposed to this. the problem with it is that it's misguided. they're confusing social class with white privilege. there are whites, blacks, hispanics, privilege is colorblind. it all depends on your resources. and so i think that it's

something that certainly a second grader is not going to be able to understand. abby: right. well, their whole point it seemed was to help them understand. let's just show our audience an example of part of the handout that was given to these students. it says step three. begin to understand the concept of white privilege. governors 96% white. president and vice president 100 percent right. current potus cabinet. teachers 83% white. owners of men's pro-football teams 97% white. you say that ultimately could have the opposite effect of what they are wanting? >> yes. because i think that wh by the time the young people they get it again and again and again, and it's not sen advertising them to racial differences. it's very polarizing. it's a form of shaming for some white youth. i would not want my child exposed to that i believe it's misguided.

it comes -- abby: carol, what do you think the answer is? what should be taught in these schools? >> i think we should be teaching everyone to respect each other that i don't believe that causing one race to feel guilty about things that happened, you know, generations ago is going to bring us together. the problems that separates whites and blacks a lot of it has to do with the economics, culture and social class. and i don't believe that a child in -- at that age, second graders should be exposed to things that they really can't understand and i think for the minority students, it hurts them as well because it causes them to see themselves as victims. pete: so true. if you don't understand it, it becomes a form of indoctrination. carol swain candidate for the mayor of nashville. thanks for joining us this morning. >> thank you. pete: we reached out to the

send more. that official order triggers a process by which up to 4,000 troops will be headed to that border for a deployment. right now it's a six month order. it's a title 32 order which is gobblably gook speak for the fact that governor also still have direct control over them. these troops are federalized and paid by the federal government on a federal mission to basically stop the infiltration of illegals into our southern border because we continue to see a problem there congress has not responded with the border wall the president had hoped for. abby: as governors see exactly what goes on in their particular state. every state is different. it's important the state does work with those governors. the president is asking for 2,000 to 4,000 by the end of this week i guess it will be up to 400. but this all stems from this article that was talked about last week. where have you these migrants coming over. many of them from honduras. people didn't have a clear sense to what the laws were in this country when it came to immigration that you could, once you take one step over that border and you say you need a safe

place to go. it could be a couple years before the courts figure it out. ed: talking about maybe we need to send national guard troops to the border. you had some on the left freaking out and saying what is he talking about in the military and then we pointed out well, in 2010. barack obama did something similar. he felt like there was a crisis. overnight. literally in the last few moments we have gotten these pictures from late yesterday where the pentagon is now stepping it up and having their first real briefings on this. you could see top civilian and military officials there sort of mapping out what's goingoing tocome in the days ah. pete: which states are going to be art path it. we have already seen ed as well certain questions from certain governors saying we don't want to participate. oregon, montana, i believe nevada. california is in question. what will jerry brown do there? you don't want to see a scenario where these governors feel like their most recent contribution to the resistance is not being part of appear effort to secure our border.

hopefully they will come around and not make a political issue. abby: how much to your point is simply political? as you mentioned this has been done before. the reaction a lot of people are in hysterics what's going on. this happened most recently under former president barack obama. ed: couple thousand national guard troops. >> and same with president bush in 2006. ed: he had 6,000 to 6500. that will be a question for this president in the days ahead is 4,000 enough? maybe it's because he is going to be struggling to get some governors to participate as you mentioned, pete, the fact of the matter is george w. bush did something similar in 2006 with more national troops. that border is still not secure. it may need -- you know, maybe 4 is a down payment. in the end he may need a whole lot more national guardsmen. abby: we need to start implementing laws that make real sense. there is a proper way for people to become citizens of this country. that's going on. troops are being sent to the border. also some policy changes are happening.

major moves on immigration. the president signing a memo ordering the end to cash and release policies and attorney general jeff sessions also ordering zero tolerance policy at the border. these are some pretty big moves. ed: you catch someone at the border. basically illegal. my grant trying to come over. they are trying to enter the country illegally. you catch them. they step a foot on the u.s. side of the border, you have to release them. and then they are going it eventually go to court, allegedly, in the weeks, months ahead. sometimes this take as year or two. and they never show up for court. so they are in this country illegally. pete: as their case plays out. wherever they are. then they have to voluntarily come back to court appearance which a lot of them don't do. this memorandum starts a process that orders the dh is to submit a report to the president within 45 days. and they are doing an assessment of the facilities that they might have neither border. military and civilian as well as people because if you are going to instead of releasing people after they -- because when they're caught there is a review of

why they came. are you seeking asylum? are you here to work? do you have papers or not? and if they don't pass muster, there is a court hearing that comes later on. if you are going to hold them for that time. ed: how long? >> you have to have the facilities to do it. logistics come to play here, costs comes into play. we understand the cost of illegal immigration as well. a lot to be flushed out. the announcement itself shows there is a new sheriff in town. abby: so interesting to hear from people that work on the border. getting their perspective. because what they see come in every day and the rules of the road as they existed up to this point of the flexibility of what they can do when people come through and say they need a place to go. i feel like there is a disconnect between what they are doing and what the american people ultimately understand. ed: without congress acting. the president is saying basically i'm going to do as much ascii through executive action basically here with the national guard, working with governors, not unilaterally working with the governors number one. number two, remember the week started as well with the attorney general jeff

sessions saying that there is going to be a new quota for immigration judges to up their case load in terms of deportations. stop, you know, having it one level. let's speed this up. because they are trying to get a handle of the elite. pete: you wonder how this changes or if this changes the immigration debate daca and the war going forward? strengthen the president's hand to get a deal? is it not? is it a reflection the deal is never going to happen. abby: we will see where that goes. some place the president will not be in the next few weeks is the white house correspondence dinner. we were all talking about this last year because that was the first time during his presidency, will he go or will he not go? ultimately he decided not to go and instead he held a big rally. this year he has now said again imam not going to be there. this is an event that happens once a year. you were over this. ed: a few years ago president obama did a good job that night. sort of poking fun at himself. this president is probably fed up with it's not poking fun. it's on sort of a daily basis. most of the people in that room are kind of slamming

him, slashing him. maybe he is tired of it. he, by the way, gets to slam and slash a lot of his own on his twitter feed. calling it out as fake news. and so neither side really wants to budge here. abby: some people say he doesn't need it. on the campaign trail where is he holding these rallies. he pokes a lot of fun at himself. it will is a show. it is entertainment when you watch a lot of time. pete: it's the swampiest of the swamp dwellers. forgive me. that's what it is. a sycophant event where they tell each other how wonderful they are. they talk all year long they talk about how much they mate the president or at least their reporting reflects it and then they beg they are like please, mr. president come to our nerd prom. ed: always a liberal comedian. pete: we asked you should why have a conservative comedian ed is the only personal who thinks it should be me. abby: we asked you who you think should host the correspondence dinner. emails pouring in with suggestions. tim allen would be awesome.

he is from, of course, home improvement. now he is on a new show that people love. pete: email from rick roseanne barr would be better than any liberal comedian for the white house correspondence dinner. ed: conservative, nice guys jeff foxworthy or bil bill edge value should host whca dinner. >> or diamond and silk. >> you know who is getting the major award this year? cnn for coverage. i'm being honest. abby: i would like to see what happened if he did show up to a white house correspondence dinner? ed: 2019 i predict. abby: maybe he will go next year just the interaction between him and the press. can i only imagine what would go on there i want to bring you other hid lines we are following closely this morning. 14 people have been killed in horrific bus crash

national guard starting to deploy from the border arizona and texas. ed: order coming one day one migrant hopping the border two minutes not really a wall there. abby: will the critics say he is inflating our immigration problems? that is the question. pete: here to weigh in is dan bongino former secret service agent and host of the dan bongino show. some say this is hyping the problem. what do you say? >> that's total nonsense. do you know what's not inflated, the gang problem resulting from gang members, some who are very violent. again, not all people who come here obviously are criminals. some are. the ones who do come here, who become members of gangs are extremely violent. you know, pete, ed, abby, just ask. so people in long island, new york. so people in california. how these gangs have destroyed some of their communities. another thing, this drug prorks thproblem, the poisons bg shipped across the border. that's a real problem. that's not inflated problem. i will throw another one at you. you know the cost to american taxpayers out there

who have to finance this nonsense and social programs being abused by people who came through this country illegally. that's a real problem. that's not inflated. abby: why do it now though? this is something the president campaigned on. he has been very forceful on immigration the laws he wants to change on this country. why now? why not months ago? >> you know, i think he has been dealing with an unprecedented amount of democrat obstruction on the hill. you know, i get it i know we have liberals that watch the network and say oh, that's just an excuse. no, it's not. there is really an unprecedented level 6 obstruction. abby, whether it's appointments at the bureaucratic level for the president's selections for positions in the law enforcement community, whether it's him trying to get his wall built, which is what he ran on. it was his signature issue. the democrats have firmly resolutely stood in his way and said, you know what? we're not going to do it because it sells well amongst radical liberal base standing in your face and saying no. ed: dan, hang on a second.

you say democratic obstructionism. chuck schumer put the funding for the border wall right there with the table on the president for the budget negotiations and the president walked await a minute democrats were not blocking it then. they put it on the table. >> yeah. i will could turn that around on you, ed, and say same thing. fair enough question. what about when president trump offered daca to unprecedented amount of people. more daca recipients than even obama did. ed: why didn't the president take the border wall you? want it so badly, why didn't you take it. >> because there were too many tradeoffs that would have involved basically incentivizing a flow of future illegal immigrants sent to the country in the future that would have, you know, basically incentivized, not stopped the problem and incentivize people. pete: barack obama had both houses of -- house and the senate. ed: so it's obama's fault? >> and could have pursued this if daca was really a priority. >> one of the okayal bills that would have stopped chain migration was definitely a good idea.

chain migration is big portion of the problem. i think the president gave them a more than fair deal with his daca proposal for 1.8 million people, which was -- i didn't agree with even by the way. the democrats said no. again, you could turn it around on them. abby: dan, where does this go you have national guard now. border. president asking for up to 4,000. what is the end game here? >> abby, first, there has got to be a recognition of the problem. you know, there is a lot 6 gas lighting going on by the left here. constant telling of a lie. telling it forcefully and repeatedly and isolating people from the truth. the big lie is that illegal immigration should only be discussed in terms of the effect on the law breaker. you broke the law. everybody worries about oh, what's going to happen to the illegal? first there is a recognition of the problem that this is a real cost to the american taxpayer. and by the way it hurts people who come here legally the right way. ed: dan, we appreciate your insights as always. have a great weekend. abby: good to see you this morning. coming up on the show america's top doctor issuing

pete: welcome back. a couple quick headlines for you, as i have my morning coffee and you do as well. a federal judge upholding massachusetts 20-year ban on assault weapons, so-called assault weapons. and large capacity magazines. dismissing a lawsuit challenging it. the judge's ruling identifying so-called assault weapons as military firearms. saying they do not violate the second amendment. he says lawmakers should decide on regulating weapons, not the courts. makes sense to me. that's where laws are made.

not behind closed doors. and a south carolina congressman not backing down to gun critics. republican ralph nor man proving they are only dangerous in the hands of criminals. reportedly placing a loaded .38 caliber handgun on a table during a meeting with constituents. he said he will continue standing up for his rights at public meetings. abby, down to you. abby: well done, pete. you didn't even trip. thanks so much. in 2016 over 42,000 deaths due to opioids. that is more than any other year on record. ed: it's really stunning, in response to the growing crisis the attorney general issued the first ever national advisory in over a decade. first ever for opioid crisis. urging that more americans carry the overdose antidote that lax zone it is very important. >> dr. jerome adams the united states surgeon general who has a personal connection to this national crisis great to have you on, general. good to see you. >> thank you for having me on to talk about this important issue, abby and ed. abby: i know this is an

important one for you and some other people in this country. tell us your story. why is this important to you? >> well, my own little brother philip sits in state prison right now because of the fact that he stole 200 to do so support his addiction habit. he got a 10-year prison sentence and it's going to cost the taxpayers much more money to incarcerate him than it would have to have treated him. i will tell you, abby, the one saving grace if he is in prison at least he won't die. you can't say that for far too many americans right now. abby: that is a sad reality. ed: talk to our viewers who might be skeptical of a taxpayer money paying for treatment. you make the case that we're going to spend more money as far as rating people but so how do you believe and the president believe get more bang for the buck actually treating people? >> president trump has made clear that one his three priorities in regard to the opioid epidemic is saving lives. we have a person dying every 1.5 minutes from an opioid overdose. what's shock something that over half of these overdoses

are occurring at home that. that means we can't rely on 911 or firearm or policemen to save these lives. we need to arm americans and folks who are around those individuals who have at risk to save those lives. that's why i issued this advisory on the naloxone. abby: this kit people should walk around with. how would that work? people trained to carry these around? how would the system be put in place. >> folk could say go to surgeon.gov for more information health website 4 out of 50 states there is a standing order. so by standers can carry naloxone. injectable form like an epipen or nasal form that is just -- it's just that easy. i taught my niece carley how to do it this morning. so, anyone can save a life. anyone can be a hero but you need to understand who is at risk and everyone needs to understand they can carry

naxolone. ed: where you get these kids? how much does it cost? 50 bucks? 100ed? how expensive is it? >> in 49 out of 50 states can you go into any pharmacy and get them by standing order if you pay cash for them, it's anywhere from 75 to $150. many nonprofits and hospitals are giving them out for free. 95% of commercial insurers are providing naloxone. it's the first part. connecting people tour do. we don't want to just save lives and have them going through a revolving door. we want them to get connected to good treatment. good recovery and again, go to my website to find out what good treatment looks like. abby: anyone who knows someone or has personally experienced losing someone they love to opioids. have you your own story, it's heart breaking. so real. we have got to find some answers and make some moves

on this. surgeon general thank you so much. >> remember even the two of you can save a life. learn about naloxone. ed: good message. thank you. abby: nancy pelosi says if democrats win the mid terms they are going to repeal the g.o.p. tax cuts. take a listen. >> it's about comprehensive, what our tax policy for the future. ed: not a single democrat in the house or senate voted for the tax cuts. is that really the right message for them to take to the mid terms? we will ask the former white house chief of staff reince priebus, he is here live next ♪ ♪ ♪ this is a story about mail and packages. and it's also a story about people. people who rely on us every day to deliver their dreams they're handing us more than mail they're handing us their business and while we make more e-commerce deliveries to homes than anyone else in the country, we never forget... that your business is our business

i was wondering if an electric toothbrush really cleans better than a manual. and my hygienist says it does but they're not all the same. who knew? i had no idea. so she said, look for one that's shaped like a dental tool with a round brush head. go pro with oral-b. oral-b's rounded brush head surrounds each tooth to gently remove more plaque, and oral-b is the first electric toothbrush brand accepted by the american dental association for its effectiveness and safety. my mouth feels so clean. i'll only use an oral-b. oral-b. brush like a pro. we're all under one roof now. congratulations. thank you. how many kids? my two. his three. along with two dogs and jake, our new parrot. that is quite the family. quite a lot of colleges to pay for though. a lot of colleges. you get any financial advice? yeah, but i'm pretty sure it's the same plan they sold me before. well your situation's totally changed now. right, right. how 'bout a plan that works for 5 kids, 2 dogs and jake over here? that would be great.

that would be great. that okay with you, jake? get a portfolio that works for you now and as your needs change from td ameritrade investment management. >> i'm not saying there won't be a little pain, but the market has gone up 40%, 42%. we might lose a little bit of it we are going to have a much stronger country when we're finished. and that's what i'm all about. we have to do things that other people wouldn't do. so, we may take a hit and, you know what? ultimately we are going to be much stronger for it. pete: that was the president yesterday talking about proposed tariffs against china and a looming show down on that front. here to get reaction to that is reince priebus former chief of staff to president trump and the former chairman of the rnc. reince, thanks for joining us this morning. >> hey, good morning. pete: as you know, this is a topic the president has been talking about for a very long time. it should come as no surprise to people that he is bringing it up now and building a show down with

china. do you think he is right? little pain upfront is worth it for the show down and how far will he go to get his way? >> >> i think this is classic president trump, right? i mean, you put the shots over the bough. you set up the negotiation table. some people freak out about it. but, then what you have is ultimately, i think, a solution that gets us in a better place. and if you look at what larry kudlow is saying and what kevin has set is saying, who are the economic advisors, you will see that they are saying exactly that that we are setting up a negotiation and i think we get to a better place. and i think the president then declares victory and i think if you look at the past actions that have taken place, you look at north korea in august last year, people freaked out because the president was being extremely aggressive, tillerson was backing off. and looking lo and behold we have an agreement. you look at afghanistan, the president was talking about

pulling out completely. people freaked out. ultimately a solution was had. same thing with syria. just happened last week. so, i think if you look at the pattern, you will see that the president in most cases is a negotiating upfront. sending shots over the bough. and then setting himself up for a solution. i think that's what you have here. ainsley: your thoughts on this as well the head of the e.p.a., scott pruitt. our own ed henry did a pretty intense interview with him 10 days ago. the question is what is the future for him? the president has said he likes the job that scott pruitt is doing at the e.p.a. but there are questions around some of his handling, some controversies over whether he is, in fact, a part of that swamp. taking advantage of first class flights, private planes. you name it what do you think should happen? should he be fired? >> no, i don't. i think that what he has got to do is somehow show the american public that he has got the e.p.a. buckled down.

you know, come to the table. show how things are going to be different, which i think he is starting to do. but, you know, look, if you look at the agenda that he has put in place. the clean water executive order, you look at the energy -- the changes that have been made in energy regulations, the coal industry coming back, i mean, he has done, you know, a huge chunk of the changes that have taken place that are making the economy hum again. are in large part from president trump's orders that scott pruitt is implementing. the other dichotomy me too is that trump world loves scott pruitt. so, you also have the huge base of the party that actually knows who the e.p.a. director is. which isn't form normally the case. if you asked me hot last three e.p.a. directors were, i couldn't tell you. abby: it's a good point. is that enough though? you think about the swamp, threes what the president ran on. and policies aside.

some of the decisions that the head of the e.p.a. has made have been a perfect example of how the president describes the swamp. he is in a tough position there you can be hypocritical saying i want to get rid of the swamp. but he also has some good policies. >> i think people make mistakes and mistakes don't put people in the swamp. i think what have you is deficits that are out of control. parties that can't seem to come together and get things done, so, look, i hear you. i think it's a tough issue for people to talk about. but, i think if you look at the preponderance of the evidence, i think scott pruitt is doing a great job. and i think more importantly, we have a 2018 midterm coming up, and i look at what has happened in wisconsin this past week and where we are going, and it's an issue that i think needs to be focused on. pete: the left also hates scott pruitt because he has been effective on some things. you mentioned the 2018 mid

terms. one of the big things republicans want to run on are tax cuts, drawing a contrast to democrats. none of which voted for the tax bill. nancy pelosi would like to be speaker again. was asked what democrats would do about the tax bill. recently. this is what she had to say. >> we'll sit down at the table and say what would be a tax bill that creates growth that creates good paying jobs that reduces the deficit? it's not about chipping at this piece or that piece. it's about comprehensive what our tax policy should be for the future. pete: are they going to run against this tax cut? >> yeah. it's what the party has to be very careful of. because as much as we all know that it's one of the biggest tax cuts in the history of our country and does really well for people in the middle and people at the bottom, which is what the president ran on, they are going to try to get ahead of the republicans on this and they are going to label it as always, this is a tax cut for the extremely wealthy. you were left behind. it's not what the president

promised. that's what they are going to deliver. and i was talking about this for a second ago. if you look at what happened in wisconsin last week, and what it means for the future, you know, that was a -- people should look at that election. that was a base election. there was no president trump on the ballot. there was no scott walker. and there is huge dem turnout. especially in college towns. and that ribbon in the middle. this sort of trump-walker, pete, you know, jesse ventura ribbon in the you were midwest, that piece has to be motivated. and if it's not motivated, you can't win. ed: to your point, reince, scott walker weighed in after judge got a seat wisconsin. show me we are at risk blue wave in wisconsin. big government special interest flooded wisconsin with distorted facts and misinformation. next they will target me and work to undo our bold reforms. you were there. you were in the room when the president was winning on

election night because of states like wisconsin. what does the current chief of staff need to do to make sure the party is speaking directly to those voters? >> well, for one thing, you have to get ahead of nancy pelosi on the tax cuts and show that it works for people in the middle. but, secondly, the party and i think they are doing this, but i would just triple down on it, you have to invest very, very heavily and absentee ballot early vote operations. meaning checking off the list every 70, 80, 90% or for republican. you have to put massive field organization on the ground. as much as can you possibly afford. without question. then, i think the party also has to get on campuses again. and i know that people think it's a lost cause. it's not. you have to stop the bleeding. campus coordinators, massive field organization. and there shouldn't be, you know, any money left on the table. and then i would also say if you have got bad candidates in places. and you can replace them, dump them.

and recruit better candidates. because, one thing the democrats have done is they have feeled pretty good candidates and i think the republicans have, too. i think they have done a great job. if there is any bleeding anywhere, they need to be replaced. ed: last question, yesterday the current staff john kelly in a tough spot where the president seems to not be listening to a lot of his advice and sort of going his own way. you are in a unique position. the first chief of staff. who was caught in the middle of some of that. what's your advice to john kelly? what's your situation what's your assessment how it's playing out now with the president? >> well, the president likes to be his own person. if you look at the art of the deal one of the most telling paragraphs is when he says i like to keep things loose. i don't want to be overbooked. i like to go to the office and see what develops. that's the president's management style. i think that actually personally, i think a lot of it is overblown. i think that the general is doing a great job. i hope he stays for, you

know, three more years or whatever it takes. but, look, i think you have to adapt. i think he is adapting to the president's style the president wants to call the shots. he also wants people to know that he is calling the shots. and if something gets in between that it becomes a problem. pete: do you feel good about his political acura men as we go into the midterm here. >> i do. i do. obviously, you look at the race in pennsylvania and everyone is overanalyzing it. the president wasn't on the ballot. if the president was on the ballot he probably would have won that race. the problem is that you have the enthusiasm even on that question anybody issue in yodiminished.whether a is the pg to do to make up for the fact that when a party is in power, the other side comes into play. and do you have enough horsepower on the ground and the kind of candidates that can overcome the fact that you're facing that head wind? there is no doubt about it,

it is a head wind and the calculation is what do you need to do to defeat it and survive it. abby: yeah, speaking of ache claim mating. how has life been post white house for you. >> it's pretty good. i hope can you tell i'm pretty relaxed and having a good time. no, it's great. but, obviously, always willing to be supportive of our team. and but i look forward to at least doing well in the mid terms. i think it can happen but i think we are going to have to work pretty hard. ed: we look forward to having you back. reince priebus. thanks for coming in. >> you bet. ed: do you want to keep your personal information private on facebook? they say you have to pay for it. pete: hollywood back at it again slamming president trump. a movie director even tweeting for him to die. one of the celebrity an antiques of the week. we have more for you coming up. just ahead. ♪ [ doorbell rings ]

showed you. pete: look at this right here. bingo. oh, and it would have been in. do you see the fear? do you see the fear? ed: i've got to tell you something, he says i'm a journalist with the air quotes i actually it comes in handy because i did a little reporting and i found out a little secret about the course that i'm not going to tell you. pete: really? secret sources from a journalist ed: it's not cheating if you do reporting and you get information. pete: but you also reveal where you get your reporting from it's an anonymous source we can't verify. ed: you might call it fake news, but it's real news. abby: a little secret i'm going to share with our audience? they talk so tough on camera these big guys i would be pete, i could be ed, so guess what goes on when the cameras turn off behind the scenes. are you ready for this? savage garden, this is what you both were singing in the commercial break. pete: i will sing it again. abby: they were going at it.

pete: i'm a hard guy. ed: the brother you're a little embarrass the about but it's like okay he's cool. ed: go for it. pete: i don't remember the words abby: this is what happens. pete: it goes on. ed: we actually have a lot of news. abby: there's a lot going on so golf later on on the show and my mom is actually going to join the couch as well there is my mom. she's back from moscow because she's been in russia not a lot going on over there. so she will be on the couch she had another granddaughter born yesterday or two days ago. ed: i bet she's enjoying your daughter a lot and we'll talk about that. abby: a lot of news as you were saying starting with a fox news alert this morning policy into action arizona and texas national guard troops start deploying to the border and actually started overnight troops sent to arizona 150 to arizona, 250 to texas. the president is asking for up to 4,000. pete: that's right secretary mattis signed a deployment order

i took a look at it this morning approving up to 4,000 national guard troops from states across the country and a title 32 deployment which means it's not full-on active duty they're still controlled by governors which is why it will be interesting to see which states pony up troops voluntarily and which do not you don't want to see a scenario play out where states say we've already seen that from oregon and montana, potential nevada but the mission is clear, support border patrol agents and surveillance on the border to really stem the tide of the flow on the border because they haven't gotten a wall from congress . ed: and the key is it's not just talk so the president within days of talking about this is now acting, he's got as you say secretary mattis issuing the order and they're moving forward but doing a whole lot of other stuff as well overnight we learned the president has signed a memo ordering an end to this catch and release policy which basically means the border patrol agents catch someone at the border a migrant whose basically an illegal immigrant if they get into america and start roaming around if they get one foot down on american soil

they have to be released. they're supposed to eventually be detained, brought into court but sometimes they show up for court, sometimes they don't and look what happened last night. these photos online of someone who basically on the mexico side climbed over with the help of a friend with his hands under his feet. abby: they were able to do it in two minutes they were trying to see how fast they could jump over that wall and they did it. pete: it was a six meter wall, not the 30-foot wall proposed by the president or the prototypes they feel like would prevent that type of scaling and as i was reading the story about it, i was struck by one sentence. i think it underscores the difference the point of view the president takes than those who are advocates for illegal immigrants. it said at this guy jumps over the wall and runs, running toward a group of houses just visibility on the horizon and i think about the american citizens in those houses who live within stone throw of the border and live with the reality that illegals whether they're coming here peacefully or not, drugs, gangs, or not, are dealing with that constant

threat until we get our hands around the sovereignty of our borders and that's why a lot of people are welcoming the urgency of this president not just the national guard but ending catch and release and also zero tolerance. abby: and zero tolerance put in place by attorney general jeff sessions but when you talk about catch and release up until now if you were to put one step over that border, you could be here for months to a year to maybe a couple years before the court decides what they want to do with you. pete: before you decide to go back up to the court. abby: so what happens now when you have the national guard troops at the border if you take a step over that border what changes now? pete: what changes now is they've ordered the dhshad to submit a report to the president within 45 days. abby: but people can still go to separate places right or do they push the memo? ed: that's going to cost money, where are you going to hold them abby: there's still a lot of questions. pete: absolutely. abby: figuring out the right answers. ed: the president is saying congress needs to act on immigration reform short of that i'm going to take executive

action. pete: and i think people are encouraged by the fact that it's going to take some time to figure out how you implement it but it's better than the status quo which is catch and release and when you saw the migrant caravan coming and that triggered this entire conservation if you know where they're going to go, you hold them until they have a trial and decide and if there's zero tolerance the second time you cross the border you're now a fe lon. that's not how current law stands as you get slapped on the wrist you see these guys coming back. ed: current attorney general jeff sessions in the middle of this issuing new memorandums, the last attorney general loretta lynch was in the middle of a lot of controversy. abby: the infamous tarmac meeting right at the height of the e-mail investigation for hillary clinton, so went on that tarmac, talked to former president bill clinton, they said they were just talking about golf, they were talking about grandkids, well now, fast forward. ed: even though hillary clinton was under investigation by the fbi at that moment. abby: loretta lynch the former attorney general will be on nbc

for an interview on monday and this of course comes a week before we've been calling it the comey week. he's coming out and he will be out the following week and maybe she's trying to get ahead of this, maybe trying to explain some questions that still re plain remain. pete: you could call it the height of the e-mail investigation or the e-mail exoneration because james comey who was the fbi director had drafted the exoneration of hillary clinton when that meeting took place and let's flash back to the way when james comey was forced to testify a year ago in may of 2,017 about this exchange on the tarmac there was daylight in his feelings about it. take a listen. >> i'm not picking on the attorney general loretta lynch, who i like very much but her meeting with president clinton on that airplane was the capper for me and i then said, do you know what? the department cannot by itself creditly end this. abby: i think that did it. i think there was a conflict of interest there. pete: just a little bit. ed: so you've got that and now he comes out on the book tour so

she tries to get ahead of that monday on nbc news and will give her version she sticked with grandkids and golf or say well the e-mail thing might have come up. we'll see what she says and then james comey has the book tour so we have on his own now a clinton advisor and said you know, what was happening on that plane? did they talk about the e-mail investigation? he really downplayed it. watch. >> i think it was chit chat. i think it was chit chat and i know from them that there was food set out and they did a little grazing of like cheese tray. no, he hired her 20 years earlier. pete: chit chat and cheese plate abby: the timing is very interesting so we have loretta lynch who will speak out publicly i'm sure she will get tough questions and then james comey will be asked these questions when on his book tour so will be interesting to see the tit for tat who says what does any of it conflict because the eyeballs will be on everyone ed: and then the inspector general report comes out from the justice department and then if there's conflicting accounts

about how the clinton investigation was really handled does that finally give the impetus for a second special counsel? pete: i think that's the real point. ed: it's not just what happened two years ago. it's like wait a second did something criminal happen should this be investigated or is it just history? pete: i think that's what people are thirsting for not about a vendetta to litigate the past. it's a true understanding within the highest level of our golf were used to conspire against the candidate and to let the other candidate off the hook for clear wrongdoing which any junior member of the state department would have been canned, hung for met o official icily they would have been hung out to dry if they did what she did with her e-mail server and i think there are just people that see that double standard and want to get to the bottom of it. abby: this will set a real precedent moving forward. ed: will there be accountable? we'll be watching that closely. abby: we gina we fox news alert, 14 people are now dead after a horrific bus crash involving a

canadian junior hockey team driving to a game a semi collided with the bus carrying players between the ages of 16- 21 along with their coaches. another 14 people were injured three of them critically. prime minister justin trudeau tweeting i can not imagine what these parents are going through. my heart goes out to everyone effected by this terrible tragedy so heartbreaking. and president trump supporting environmental protection agency head scott pruitt amid growing calls for his resignation coming as he's under an ethics review, the former chief of staff joins us earlier on the show and here is his denser of him. >> if you look at the agenda he's put in place the clean water executive order, you look at the energy changes that have been made in energy regulation, the coal industry coming back, he is done a huge chunk of the changes that have taken place that are making the economy hum again. abby: well president trump

showing his support tweeting pru itt is doing a great job but is totally under siege. well, a third of young millennials are in the u.s. they are not sure if the earth is round. a recent survey from u-gov revealing 18-24 year olds are the largest group in the country who refuse to accept the scientific facts of the world politicos shape only 66% have always believed the world is round. well okay, 9% have always believed the world is flat. i have actually never met someone who believed the world is flat. what an interesting conservation that would be. pete: oh, my goodness. ed: meanwhile, new reports indicate president trump is not a criminal target in special counsel mueller's russia probe so then what is mueller looking for? we're going to ask a former independent counsel, ken star, who of course led the white water investigation of bill clinton that morphed into something else. we'll get his insights. pete: california congressman duncan hunter next on the national guard deployment and the sanctuary city debate raging

pete: national guard troops from arizona and texas heading to the southern border, but california still silent about the move. here to weigh in on these developments california congressman duncan hunter congressman thanks for being here this morning appreciate you getting up early. you represent an area in southern california you saw the president make the case for the wall congress has not delivered despite his best attempts so he says it's now time to send the military down there. what do you make of his action to mobilize the national guard and will the california national guard be apart of it? >> we're all for it here, pete. we're all for controlling the border in san diego. we have the only border wall in america. the only actual double border fence with a high speed road and you have an area in san diego that was not liveable meaning people couldn't live on the border. there was so much crime. now people can live right on the

border. in regard to your question specifically, governor brown has to send national guard to the border because it's not just a california issue. once you cross the border you can go anywhere so why would the other states and federal government say if it's a california issue it's okay the governor brown won't send troops you'll have an unsecured part of the border in california which you already have because of the state's stupid policies so it's going to be the weak link even if you do secure the rest of the border and in arizona and texas, so it's the federal government's responsibility to make sure even if the liberal governor here in the state doesn't send national guard that they have some other recourse that they can use to secure the border here, otherwise you're going to have an open end and it's not going to matter whether arizona is secure and texas is secure. pete: and it would be embarrassing too. >> california is a magnet now to criminal illegal aliens because we don't cross-check people's immigration status with their criminal status and that's

a bad thing in the state that draws criminals to the state. pete: absolutely california becoming famous, infamous for being that sanctuary state, but some cities want no part of it you've seen this, whether it's huntington beach, escondido you represent that area, they became the first city in san diego county to join the trump adminitration and you're on the ground with constituents will that movement to fight the sanctuary state grow? >> it's going to grow an it's going to grow fast. we're trying not we are but there's a large group in california trying to split off from san francisco, sacramento and los angeles and create the interior of california is very conservative. the ocean part, the beachfront property is very liberal so that's one aspect. the entire interior of california wants a secure border and they realize too that people that are coming here that are immigrating to this nation want a safe place to live. they don't want it like it was back in honduras. they don't want it look it is in

pakistan. they don't want it like it is in syria so why would the legislature in california try to create a criminal state to where you're not safe even if you're an immigrant? i think that immigrants coming to this country want to leave what they're leaving behind and come to what the sucks has to offer which is law and order and democrats don't do anybody justice. democrats or republicans when they put this 1% of people that are not american citizens above us. pete: it feels like they want to be the center of resistance and represent lawlessness more than be apart of this country and our laws. brief last question there's a ballot initiative for 2,020 currently in development that would end the sanctuary state policies in california. do you think 51% plus would vote for that today in california? >> yes, i think you'll get that especially after we worked this for three years you'll have the majority of california say look, we don't want to be the magnet for criminal aliens in the united states. we want to secure sovreign state that matches the rest of the

united states and i think that's what the california people are going to do because every now and then california does the right thing and hopefully that'll be it. pete: [laughter] every now and then after trying everything else california does. we'll see what jerry brown does as far as deployment of california national guard troops it'll be interesting if other states deploy to california to defend that border hopefully it does not come to that. congressman duncan hunter thank you for your service in congress as well as marine corps. >> thank you. pete: well new reports indicate president trump is not a criminal target in special counsel mueller's russia probe. so what's he looking for exactly well ken starr, he's been in mueller's shoes. he's coming up next. and it's the back stage brawl dominating the sports world and we just learned major trouble could be brewing for u.s. star connell mcgregor. my day starts well before i'm in the kitchen. i need my blood sugar to stay in control. i need to shave my a1c i'm always on call. an insulin that fits my schedule is key.

ed: quick headlines to watch for this week former u.s. ambassador john bolton will officially start his new role as national security advisor on monday morning. president trump nominating him after pushing out hr mcmaster and facebook ceo mark zuckerberg testifying before congress on tuesday and wednesday now. two days, two big issues including the cam bridge scandal and russia's use of facebook during the 2,016 campaign. and cia director mike pompeo will appear before the senate on thursday the foreign relations committee his confirmation hearing for secretary of state. president trump nominating him to replace rex tillerson. abby: president trump reportedly preparing for an interview with special counsel robert mueller although no formal meeting has yet been scheduled. pete: the news coming days after reports president trump is not a criminal target in the russia probe. ed: so if the president is not a target, what is mueller exactly

looking for who better to talk to than the former independent counsel, former u.s. general ken starr who led the whitewater investigation of course good morning counselor. >> good morning abby: good morning. ed: let's start simply with this washington post story and what you think it really meant. it basically said that the president is not a target of the mueller probe but is a subject for the layman, what's the difference? >> well, it's a huge difference a target means you really are in trouble that the grand jury and the investigators, the prosecutors really focusing on you. perhaps among others, and so i think the president's legal team should feel very good about that , to be a subject is essentially meaningless. of course the president is a subject given the nature of what robert mueller is investigating but let me just say this. it looks like increasingly he's investigating the russian invasion of the united states

political system and not collusion. we just don't have, we're at sort of the black box behind ignorance but we still have seen no evidence of collusion but he sure seems to be investigating the russian invasion. abby: so let's talk about whether or not president trump will ultimately sit down "record with robert mueller. you say this is the ultimate judgment call. what are his advisors, the president thinking as they figure out what decision they will ultimately make whether he should go on the record or not? >> well, there are two perspectives here. the defense perspective is one of caution. don't do it, mr. president. it's a perjury trap there are all these risks and so forth. i get that. it's very wise advice but from what we read the president wants to follow his own instincts and i think those are sound because he is the president of the united states. he's not a private citizen and so in light of the nature of the investigation, the charge that robert mueller has, mueller cannot finish up without getting

the president's statements, so do you want to do it the hard way, the issuance of a subpoena, litigation of a subpoena, dragging the president of the united states before the grand jury that's very unseemly. everybody should try to avoid that so right now it's the art of the deal to negotiate the right kinds of terms and conditions of the interview. pete: but ken the liability here is that while currently he's not the target in a subject if you say the wrong thing during an interview like that you could suddenly find yourself the target. >> that's the danger, and so that means preparation be careful in what you say. this is not a news conference. one can't be flippant and the like and the president is a very experienced person in litigation in civil litigation but this is, you know, these are now the major leagues and this is the super bowl and world series all rolled into one into that three or four hour period. ed: a couple days ago on the stormy daniels thing the

president did make a flippant comment i didn't know about the payment so that's dangerous in a deposition setting isn't it? >> yeah, it is. that's an air force one. he interacts, he's very, you know, he is himself, but he's got to be of course and the lawyers will work with him, and he's so smart that he will note, now it's time. he's been in depositions before. it's really time to get serious. the pitcher is on the mound, i'm up at the plate total concentration. pete: do it wrong and it drags on. >> exactly. please do it right. be serious, as he's very smart. i think his instincts will serve him well in terms of the seriousness that this is a high jeopardy situation, but one that i think he has to go through. abby: it sounds like you would advise the president to absolutely sit down with robert mueller and that would hopefully speed things up. >> yeah otherwise you'll have a big fight in court over a subpoena and it's just going to get really ugly and i think that there will in fact be a district

court order, heaven forbid, ordering the president of the united states to sit down in front of the grand jury. that's not good. abby: all right ken starr a great perspective on this issue we really appreciate you being on here. ed: a man in the fourth quarter has it all. pete: appreciate it. well still ahead do you want to keep your personal information private on facebook? in order to do so you might have to pay up what the tech giant just revealed about your data, we'll talk it over with neil cavuto. ed: plus a little boy spoiling his pregnant mom's surprise. the story behind this gender reveal fail now going viral he has a little toy sword i think. abby: love it and my mom is here coming on the curvy couch she's home from moscow making a pit stop. ed: yes, welcome home. abby: at fox & friends she's up next, hey, mom! >> ♪ ♪ when you brush or floss you may have gum problems
