to feel guilty and i start thinking about mashed potatoess again. >> that's fun to think about. thanks to buck, joe, katherine, studio audience. just in on the fox report, fox news now confirming north korea has told the u.s. that kim jong un is ready to discuss deyou nuclearization of the korean peninsula. this clears the way for a meeting between the north korean leader and president trump. they're not saying how and when the assurance was delivered. u.s. and north korean officials have been in communications. analysis on this, coming up. president trump raising the possibility of military action against syria after activists accuse syria's president of carrying out another apparent chemical attack that they say killed dozens of civilians, many women and children find suffocated in their homes and shelters envelope arshelters.
3:01 pm
they are denying the use of chemical weapons, calling it a hoax. i'm are ricthe attack took placl held town east of d damascus. it would be the latest use of gas on syrians during the civil war. former israeli ambassador to the u.n. calling on president trump and the international community to do more to stop the atrocities being carried out by syrian leaders with support from russia and iran. >> this is what happens when you let that axis of evil run amuck. they're killing their own people, they're killing women and children and the world is standing still. i'm struck by the hypocrisy. >> we have the latest on the president's reaction from the white house. first, conor powell joins us from our middle east bureau.
3:02 pm
conor. >> reporter: rescue workers and activists in syria say as many as 500 or so people have been treated with symptoms consistent with poison chemical attacks. the 40 that have been reported dead so far could rise according to activists, they could rise dramatically in the next day or so. the video that's coming out of syria is horrifying, a pretty awful video. it shows families in the city of douma suffocating with white foam in their mouths. another video shows a family clinging together in their homes. dozens of survivors are being treated with oxygen and inhalers and like i said, it could be up to 500 or so that have been treated for poison gas. it isn't clear what substance was used, though. it does seem that it's possible that it could have been some type of colo chlorinated gas. this is a much larger attack.
3:03 pm
if the numbers remain consistent and true. the assad regime denied allegations of using chemical weapons, not only this time but in previous allegations and accusations before. douma is the last area held by rebels, just outside of damascus. it's been the scene of heavy fighting the last few months. there was negotiations for the fighters there, they make up a group called the army of islam, they were negotiating to leave that area. those talks collapsed and there is some sense that maybe because those talks collapsed that this was the assad regime trying to finally finish them off. there are also reports that they are beginning to leave that area on busses, although that's not confirmed just yet. and rick, the united nations, pressed by nikki haley, they say they're going to try to take up an emergency meeting tomorrow, on monday.
3:04 pm
>> rick: conor, thank you. in the wake of that suspected chemical attack in syria, president trump putting some of the blame on his predecessor, former president barack obama. president trump tweeting, many dead including women and children in mindless chemical attack in syria. area of atrocity is in lockdown and encircled by syrian army, making it completely inaccessible to outworld. russia and iran are responsible for backing animal assad. big price to pay. open area immediately for medical help and verification. another humanitarian disaster for no reason whatsoever. sick, the president said. allison barber is live at the white house with more. >> reporter: sarah sanders says president trump was briefed on the attack yesterday evening by his chief of staff, john kelly. she says he is receiving updates as they become available. today, president trump also spoke to iraq's prime minister.
3:05 pm
one thing they discussed is the situation in syria and the, quote, alarming reports of possible chemical attacks. a year ago, president trump ordered a military air strike in syria in response to a chemical weapons attack. the strike targeted an air base belonging to the syrian government. when it comes to the most recent attack, the security advisor says all options are on the table. >> i wouldn't take anything off the table. these are horrible photos. we're looking into the attack at this point. the state department put out a statement last night and the president's senior national security cabinet have been talking all throughout the evening and this morning and myself included. >> reporter: the state department has not officially confirmed that the attack in syria is a chemical weapons attack but president trump called it one on twitter and demanded that the syrian army open the area where the attack occurredded. >> the defining moment in his presidency, because he's
3:06 pm
challenged assad in the past not to use chemical weapons. we had a one and done missile attack. assad's at it again. they see us, our resolve breaking. they see our determination to stay in syria waning. and it's no accident they used chemical weapons. >> there needs to be an international response. this is against international norms. >> reporter: this past week president trump said it is time for u.s. troops to leave syria. john mccain released a statement this evening, saying that president trump's words signaled to the world in his words that he wanted to prematurely withdraw from syria. mccain is saying that that statement, those words from president trump have emboldened syria and assad. rick. >> rick: allison, thank you. it was one year ago when president trump ordered the launch of dozens of missiles to reign down on an syrian air base after a similar chemical attack killed more than 80 people and mike mccall says this is the kind of action that's needed
3:07 pm
once again. >> i think we need a bold and swift response. the last time assad did this we responded with 59 tomahawk missiles destroying his landing and air base capability so they could not deliver these barrel bombs. i think something similar to that, but i think as the president said all options are on the table right now re. >> rick: for more on this, let's bring in jim walsh. thanks for being with us. >> good to be with you. >> rick: if there's another military strike against syria, what would it look like? >> my guess is it would be more than happened last night in so far as the president did launch those missile attacks, yet despite that we have had a subsequent chemical attack. i'm guessing he's going to want to raise the ante. certainly any use of chemical weapons -- i do think it was the syrians that carried this out. they've done all sorts of war
3:08 pm
crimes during the war. the u.s. in its purview to send a message that weapons of mass destruction won't be tolerated. there are some constraints here. if you attack the actual stockpiles of nerve agents and the weapons themselves, that can create a toxic cloud that could float and kill lots of civilians. if you go after assad's military assets, which i think is the more likely scenario, it those be said those 2,000 u.s. troops that are in syria, they become a target. so there are different costs and benefits to be weighed. >> rick: how significant a strike would it have to be to make any kind of a difference? >> it's a great question. i don't know. at the end of the day, assad, if he feels like he's up against the wall, he's going to do what he wants to do. you can send a deterrent signal. it will be a weak deterrent signal no matter what you do. i think in some ways, a strike what it really dorks it gets the attention -- really does, it
3:09 pm
gets the attention of the russians and iranians. the iranians suffered chem attacks during the iran, iraq wall and the population is sensitive about that topic. i would hope -- the hope would be by striking back in a way that was somewhat more robust than the previous strike, what you do is you focus the mind of the russians who walk into assad and say are you kidding, cut this out. i think that's the best possible scenario. >> rick: you mentioned the 2,000 u.s. troops who are in syria tonight. the president said he wants to pull them out in the next few months but he wants them to finish what they started, which is to destroy isis. we know isis is on the ropes at this point. what are the pros and cons of pulling the troops out of syria at this point? >> i think the president has the right instincts here. he doesn't want to get tied down in wars in the middle east that never reach their objective and go on forever. and i am simila sympathetic to . it's 2,000 u.s. troops.
3:10 pm
this isn't iraq, it's syria. syria is in control. i think whether we're there or not, syria and russia and iran will try to kill isis. if they want to kill isis and finish the job, oka i'm okay wih that. i don't know what we get by staying there. and if anything, i think this latest episode shows that it actually limits the freedom of action for the president because now he has to worry in response to this chemical attack whether the syrians will then attack those 2,000 u.s. troops. if those troops weren't there, he would have a broader freedom to take more robust action. so at the end of the day, if you're going to justify military intervention, you have to say what's your objective, what's it going to cost? the answers to some basic questions, and frankly i have not heard the answers to those question. >> rick: you know president trump criticized president obama for pulling the troops out of iraq because it created a vacuum that many say helped give isis that rise to power. there are critics who say if we
3:11 pm
pull troops out of syria, al-qaida would gain strength. what are your thoughts? >> iran invited us in and was our alley. syria did not invite us in. they are our enemy. we shouldn't be fighting other people's battles when they're willing to fight them themselves. if we're worried about vacuums or instability, we can spend every last dollar in the u.s. treasury and every soldier in the american military and never accomplish sort of covering all the vacuums. most of the middle east is a vacuum. there are large parts of africa that are a vacuum. i think we have to vie prioritiehavepriorities and we a strategy. when you use military force, you have to say what is the objective and can i accomplish it. that should be the driving question. i don't hear answers to those questions. >> rick: i wanted to get your thought on another topic, north korea, which we heard is willing to talk about denuclearizing.
3:12 pm
should we take that seriously. >> we should test that proposition. i thought it was weird that there was a big announcement from the south koreans and we didn't hear anything from the north koreans. we're starting to have the conversations you would expect if the north koreans were sirius about a negotiation but we're not going to know if they're serious until we sit down at the negotiating table. i don't think we can prejudge this but i think it's a good thing to put them to the test. >> rick: jim walsh, we appreciate your time tonight. we're going to bring you back later in the hour as we discuss a po potential trade war looming between the u.s. and china. intellectual property rights are not the only concern. how beijing's military moves are also worrying washington. that's coming up a bit later on the fox report. john bolton is about to assume his new position in the trump administration. how will the former u.n. ambassador define his new role as national security advisor? plus.
3:13 pm
boots on the ground, as the national guard deploys to the southern border. can they make a difference in stopping illegal immigration and drug trafficking? >> they can play a very good role and a mission of detense de down on the border. when the drug car tell sees our mill -- cartel sees our military down there, it's going to stop them before they get in.
3:14 pm

3:16 pm
>> rick: tonight the texas army national guard is on the move, heading to the southern border, answering the call from president trump to mobilize the military following through on a campaign promise to boost security at the u.s./mexico border. >> they are on the border. our planners are in each of the sectors, working with sector commanders and planners, identifying the requirements of what they'll need us to do in support. we see this as an evolving mission. as the requirements develop with the department of homeland
3:17 pm
security, we'll engage with different surveillance equipment, light and medium aircraft, however they see fit. >> rick: garrett cheny is live in washington with more on this. >> reporter: the full rollout of the 2 to 4,000 national guard troops will likely take a couple of weeks if not longer. texas will have 250 troops along the border by tomorrow, arizona is planning to send 150 this next week and new mexico's governor agreed to deploy troops. the homeland security advisor says the action by the president and the states should serve as a wake-up call to congress to address immigration. >> we're not going to allow our border to be open for business and crossing any longer. the president has at this point said enough. not only is the national guard part of the story, every governor in every state is part of the story and they're joining with the president, saying enough. >> reporter: not every governor is jumping on-board. jerry brown hasn't said if he'll deploy his state's national guard which is waiting for more
3:18 pm
details from the administration, including how long the deployment will last and what a lot of folks on capitol hill are concerned about, how much it will cost. for perspective, when president obama sent 1200 national guard troops to to border in 2010, that first year cost about $110 million. but cost isn't the only concern among lawmakers, particularly democrats who argue they can't support president trump doing this even if they supported previous presidents doing the same thing. >> what the language our president used toward immigrants in this nation, it's abhou abhoo me. this president doing it is different from any other president doing it, frankly. >> reporter: with the midterm elections coming up, lawmakers said it's highly unlikely they'll be tackling any major issues before then. >> rick: garrett, thank you. for more on this, let's bring in
3:19 pm
usa congressional reporter eliza collins. good to see you. >> good to be here. >> rick: the democrats have been quick to criticize president trump. where were they when former president obama did the same thing eight years ago? >> they were more supportive than they are now, of course. i think as we just saw joe crowley point out, this is a whole other -- th immigration is such a larger issue this time around because president trump ran on a tough on immigration stance. we now have the whole daca situation. congress has basically been frozen on the issue. so it is a different sort of situation and that's why i think you're seeing democrats jump so quickly to criticize the president. >> rick: we heard critics say the national guard won't have law enforcement authority but they will have extra eyes and ears and night vision and other equipment to assist the border patrol. so how is this a waste of resource as critics have called it? >> i think it really depends what you're looking at, where money goes. if you're concerned about government spending, that is a
3:20 pm
question. this is an expensive project. there's also sort of questions about president trump's -- why he decided to do this. this came after this massive spending bill which he was unhappy with the cost of it and unhappy that there wasn't more -- there was like $1.6 billion for the border and there were restrictions on that. and he got a lot of heat from his base. so a lot of democrats are pointing to that and saying why is he doing this now. so i think there's all sorts of questions kind of about timing and just cost and all of that. >> rick: do you think this can help the president's goal of immigration overhaul? >> i think it will help his goal with his base. i don't think this moves the needle with democrats at all. and i actually have questions about sort of more moderate mainstream republicans, especially those in vulnerable districts who do want to address daca and so i think there will be a hesitancy to see them address the border without some sort of temporary protection. >> rick: eliza, thank you.
3:21 pm
we'll bring you back later as part of the panel on china. how the showdown with beijing is playing out with his base ahead of thed midterms. and we'll be right back. quinta. where we're changing with contemporary make-overs. then, use the ultimate power handshake, the upper hander with a double palm grab. who has the upper hand now? start winning today. book now at lq.com.

>> rick: victims of the bus crash involving a canadian junior hockey team are now being identified. 15 people were killed when the bus collided with a semitrailer truck in western canada. 10 of the victims were trailers, two were coaches. the bus driver and a broadcaster were also killed. the national hockey league played tribute for the victims this weekend, holding a moment of silence in arenas across the u.s. and canada. in less than 24 hours, john bolton begins his first week as the new national security advisor. the former u.s. ambassador to the u.n. replacing the ousted
3:25 pm
h.r. mcmaster and bolton's first week on the job might not be an easy one. jillian turner has a look at what we might expect. >> reporter: ambassador bolton will have to hit the ground running as national security advisor. he's joining the white house just as president trump gears up for an international trip to south america and then plans to host the japanese prime minister at mar-a-lago within the next 10 days. it will be his new job to prep the president for both. >> if the government can't have a free interchange of ideas among the president's advisor, then i think the president is not well-served. >> reporter: bolton's immediate policy priorities will include north korea, helping map out the president's potential sit-down with kim jong un as early as this spring, iran, helping the president figure out whether to resetter phi the nuclear deal next month, and russia, the united states is currently conducting a joint investigation with the u.k. in the aftermath of a nerve agent attack that
3:26 pm
killed a british citizen, and syria, working with american allies to resolve the ongoing civil war there. also, china, he'll be very involved from day one in decisions about how to manage the ongoing tariff dispute. if he wants to keep it limited, he'll probably do a fair bit of house cleaning. one major decision he's probably made already is whether to keep the national security council and homeland security councils separate or to combine them into one body. while this may sound like a boring process decision, it actually has severe and large-ranging implications for policy. if ambassador bolton brings the ns c & h sc and they're known together they're consolidate power under him on issues like combating terrorism, the border and cyber security. >> rick: president trump reaffirming his friendship with his chinese counter part despite threats to impose more tariffs.
3:27 pm
is this a negotiating tactic? we debate with the panel. plus, police detained more than a dozen illegal immigrants being smuggled into the country. details on how authorities were able to locate and capture them, next. there's little rest for a single dad. and back pain made it hard to sleep and get up on time. then i found aleve pm. the only one to combine a safe sleep aid... ...plus the 12 hour pain relieving strength of aleve. i'm back. aleve pm for a better am.

3:31 pm
smuggled across the u.s./mexico border. it comes just days after attorney general jeff sessions introduced a zero tolerance policy for illegal border crossers, including first time offender. anita vogel is live in the west coast newsroom with the developments. anita. >> reporter: hi, rick. 19 people were taken into custody, all of them believed to be from mexico and right now authorities are trying to figure out how many of them are here illegally and if so, what happens to them now. the accident took place yesterday, just east of san diego. a horse trailer carrying suspected illegal immigrants crashed on interstate 8 and at least 20 people were spotted fleeing into a mountainous are. it was a true scra scramble bute border patrol arrested 19 people and at least six were taken to area hospitals. >> when you have patients that are hiding in rugged terrain, it takes a while for an organized
3:32 pm
search to locate them, assess them, and then bring them up to the highway here to be treated or to be placed into the custody of the border patrol agents. >> reporter: last night two people were released from the hospital and now a total of 15 are in a local border patrol facility, being processed in the san diego area. we are waiting to find out if these will be among the first people attempting to enter the country illegally who will be subject to the new department of justice order, calling for zero tolerance. which means they would be prosecuted and potentially jailed before being deported. >> it's a federal crime to illegally re-enter the country. you face the first time up to six months. that's a federal misdemeanor. the second time it's up to two years. so now we take out the simple process them and send them back. >> reporter: in the meantime, a caravan of central americans is on its way to the u.s./mexico border with some looking purely
3:33 pm
to make a political statement, others looking to come across the border. the white house says the president is doing the right thing by removing the welcome mat for those in the caravan, trying to come in illegally. rick, as we've been reporting all day, the national guard begins arriving in texas today and in arizona early next week and they'll be supporting the border patrol in their efforts to protect that southern border. back to you. >> rick: aany a take, no national guard -- anita, no national guard in california, at least not yet, right? >> reporter: no decision from jerry brown at this point. we're waiting to hear what he has to say. >> rick: president trump says he's buddies with china's president, sh xi jinping, despie trade tensions between the two countries. the president tweeted today president xi and i will always be friends, no matter what happens with our dispute on trade. china will take down its trade barriers because it's the right
3:34 pm
thing to do. taxes will become reciprocal and a deal will be made on intellectual property. great future for both countries. let's bring back jim walsh and eliza collins. that was a very optimistic tweet we just read there. >> it was. you'll have to ask some members of congress and economists if they feel quite as optimistic as the president on this. >> rick: wall street did not react well to the u.s./china trade tensions. there was a big drop on friday. stock gains were a point of pride for this administration. the president doesn't seem to be backing down. a lot of you think this could hurt republican lawmakers across the country. >> i think so. i think it depends on the district or state. certainly there are certain areas where this will help but in a lot of these agriculture-heavy areas, which have voted for the president and do tend to be republican, it's a real issue. we're seeing iowa, senator chuck grassley has been very vocal about this, saying this is going to be really problematic and it
3:35 pm
could really help some of these house members who are really vulnerable going into the 2018 election. >> rick: what about that, jim? do you think this position could hurt the president and his supporters? >> well, already we're in a context where the democrats seem to be reallyene energetic. many elections depend on turnout. even if you have a republican supporter of the president, if they're sort of upset or ambivalent because of the trade policy, that could depress turnout and help the democrats. we're going to have to wait and see if this plays out. it may all come to nothing. i have to say, rick, this is the closest the u.s. has come to a trade war that i can remember in post war his you tri. stri -- history.we're not there. it could settle down. we're the closest we've ever been. >> rick: china said it will hit back forcefully and without hesitation, meaning economically. sounds like there might be a war brewing. >> probably everyone's at the
3:36 pm
bluffing stage right now. and that's why it's hard to tell. now, china has a lot of vulnerability here too. we buy a lot more of their goods than they buy of ours. so we have some advantage in that respect. they can find alternative ways to hit back. but a trade war really benefits neither country. we have a certain mute mute wal near -- mutual vulnerability here. china's core interest is steady economic growth and promoting stability. i'm sure they don't want a trade war. the real question is how do they view the president. do they think he's bluffing? do they think they can get an agreement that will stick or will he change his mind? we just don't know. >> rick: one of the newest editions of the president's team, larry kudlow, weighed in on this topic earlier today. >> i don't think there's a trade war in sight. technically, we have taken no actions. the whole world knows china has
3:37 pm
been violating trade laws for many years and president trump is the guy calling them on it and he's right to do so. this is a problem caused by china, not a problem caused by president trump. i would go so far as to say trump is there to fix the problem. >> rick: your reaction to that, he'leliza? >> i think there is widespread agreement that people think china has bu done unfair trade practices. there are concerns about these escalating tensions, whether they're bluffing or not, could affect people, at least in congress, some of these voters, they have farms. i think it's a little bit reassuring for people but not quite. >> rick: the big question is can the economy continue to thrive despite a so-called trade war? jim, your thoughts. >> i'm not an economist. what everyone tells me, yes, there will be an impact. it won't be immediate and devastating but it will have an
3:38 pm
impact. u.s. consumers will have to pay higher prices for imported goods and there will be other economic impacts. i think the question in a lot of people's minds are can -- who can weather these negative effects better and longer. so what is china? china's a communist state. they don't have to worry about press coverage. they don't have to worry about congressional action. they might be able to take some pain on a bet that the u.s. system can't take that pain because we have an open society with a free press and a real legislature. and so one side might have to cry uncle first, just based on who can tolerate that pain in the short term. i don't think we should be running that experiment. i think the parties need to get together and talk and find a way through this. >> rick: the president says they're buddies, so maybe they can work this out. >> i do think they have a good relationship. that was what i thought clearly came out of the first summit and in some ways it's helped sustain, how can i put this, patience on the north
3:39 pm
korean issue which will lead to some negotiations. so i think that relationship does matter, personal relationships matter for the president. the question is what the governments will do in addition to the individuals. >> rick: it could get more serious. there are some who suspect this economic battle could escalate into something close to a military showdown. china's already been accused of cyber attacks in the u.s. and someone called say better rattling in the south china seas. they've weaponized items and the u.s. is concerned about it. >> you're right. the u.s. is concerned about it. no one wants to see that happen. so this is not just about the price of goods so that definitely matters. there's concern on a military level and we've seen president trump kind of jump ahead on things, announcing things ahead of his advisors, using twitter. i think there's a sense that at least this could escalate. >> rick: jim, at this point it doesn't look like the u.s. has any leverage in the south china
3:40 pm
sea. >> we're continuing to put ships through there, to demonstrate freedom of navigation. it's a tough problem. we're in their backyard, not the other way around. i'm going to offer an alternative view on the likelihood of real conflict here. i'm more skeptical of that. i follow the lead of tray lore fr rabel. china is building their power, no doubt about it. they don't want to fight a war with the u.s. that's the last thing they want to do. so i think their military strategy is more geared towards the medium and long term and the short and medium term, i think the only way would get in a shooting war is if it was over something really vital in the chinese mind, that would be taiwan, the south china sea, but i don't think they're looking for a military fight because that would topple the cart. >> rick: last w0rd from both of you on the economic impact and where you think this goes from here. >> i'll jump in.
3:41 pm
as the congressional reporter, i think that republicans have been running on the economy. it's very strong. the stock market has been up. they just came out of tax reform. and so there's real concern that this kind of will counter that. that was the message going into the midterms, where they do face up-hill battles and they're worried about that. >> rick: jim? >> well, you know, i think we're in unchartered territory. as i said before, so we should probably be humble about our predictions. there are probably a lot of viewers who don't think i'm humble. i'll try to be humble and say we should be careful. we are doing new things in new ways and we shouldn't have confidence, we know exactly how it's going to turn out. there could be surprises and they could be very negative. >> rick: you seem pretty humble to me, jim. appreciate your time on this sunday night. thank you both. >> thanks. >> thank you. >> rick: a new facility is opening its doors to help the physician i fiscally challenged- physically challenged.
