a pocket full of poseys, she had a purse full of coke and thank mother nature. jillian: thank you for starting your week off with us. we will see you back here tomorrow. "fox & friends" starts right now. todd: bi. bye. >> world reacts in horror to the latest chemical attack in syria. >> president trump made it clear who he believes is responsible tweeting in part big price to pay. >> if he doesn't follow through and live up to that tweet, he is going to look weak in the eyes of russia and iran. this is a defining moment, mr. president. >> they are on the border. they are the first to respond. >> we have a leaking boat on our border. the president has been clear enough is enough. fix the actual problem and fix that leak. >> fox news now confirming north korea has told the u.s. that kim jong un is ready to discuss denuclearization of the korean peninsula. >> and now former attorney general loretta lynch is

ready to tell what happened during that 2016 tarmac meeting. >> will this be his life-changing moment? yes, it will. captaicaptain american captures augusta ♪ wake me up when i'm older ♪ when i'm wiser and i'm older steve: time to wake you up. this is 6:01. this is your wake-up call, ladies and gentlemen, you are watching "fox & friends." come on in. brian: let me urge you to get dressed because monday is the hardest day to pick out outfit. don't want best outfit on monday because you have four more days. steve: easy. everything is clean. brian: that's if you are smart enough to get to the dry cleaner on saturday. not one will work on a sunday. if one would break the ice. ainsley: can they not have one day off? brian: i would like to be able to go to one on sunday.

so convenient yent. steve: we have a fox news alert for you. you heard over the weekend there was a cheption attack. apparently in damascus suburb on saturday killing 40 people. families found in their homes dead. moscow has called the chemical attack fake news and never happened and warped the united states against intervention. this morning the headline is that there has been a missile attack in retribution in the country of syria. ainsley: an astrike that hit a military airport near the city of holmes. 1 died in that attack. the u.s. and france are denying any connection to this. they are saying they didn't do it. russia is blaming israel. brian: here is what the dod said. at this time the department of defense is not conducting air strikes on syria. however, we continue to closely watch the situation and support the ongoing diplomatic efforts. the question is russia says okay, we don't think it was you either, america.

we think it was israel and 14 iranians are amongst the dead. israel has not been shy any time something got near their border or bled over their border they struck back. they did say they knocked down 8 missiles, missile defense. i'm sure we took note of that. whether it's true or not, we are able to have eyes on the entire region. steve: keep in mind russia says th the attack never happened. happened. steve: president trump tweeted this out.

here is the important part, if president obama had crossed his stated red line in the sand, the syrian disaster would have ended long ago, animal assad would have been destroyed. ainsley: you can see the pictures children dying in the arms. nikki haley 8 other leaders have decided there is going to be an emergency security council meeting this morning to discuss how to respond. brian: nikki haley rounded up the world and widespread condemnation. if there is going to be a response it's going to be from us. you know what? i think we are going to start pulling our troops out. our job is almost done killing out isis. which is what happens when we leave the area. you leave it to a bunch of scascoundrels. vladimir putin says our efforts are done there it is a victory for us assad stays in power. they are not moving out any

of the troops. also important the president picked up the phone and called the iraqi leader and said what is the situation on the ground with you? what can you tell us from your point of view? and there is an iraqi election going on. iran wants to pick the next iraqi learned. unless we get involved, they absolutely will. meanwhile the white house home land security advisor, tom bossert really has set the tone yesterday on what the president is prepared to do this week. >> i would note the timing of this. it's the first thing that struck me. this is the one year anniversary of our action the last time they made the mistake of using these weapons and pushing the rest of the world. this isn't just the united states. this is one of those issues on which every nation, all peoples have all agreed and have agreed since world war ii is an unacceptable practice. i wouldn't take anything off the table. ainsley: nothing is off the table. the president did talk to that crob the president of france. they agreed nothing is off the table. they will continue to communicate and work together and assad must be

held accountable. steve: today is john bolton's first day on the job. this is all on his desk when he walks into the west wing later today. we will talk to senator lindsey graham in about 5 minutes what going on there. meanwhile it, has become very clear, over the last couple of weeks, when it was mentioned that the president had agreed to meet with the leader of north korea, kim jong un. probably not going to happen. well, as it turns out now, we are learning through back channels that apparently kim is willing to denuke his country, which is one of the prerequisites for him getting to sit down at the table with president trump. ainsley: he did meet with south korean leader. and the south korean leader did express that they did discuss this. and kim jong un said he is willing to talk to the president about getting rid of his nuclear weapons. brian: that's key. and now of course the inspection process, having free access, they have said stuff like this before. they are holding to it they

have asked nothing from us yet in response. they didn't say remove your troops 38,000 in south korea. stop the war games in south korea. they didn't say to do anything else including lifting an embargo. they are going to sit down. where are they going to do it our place we have at least one meal for you. looking at mutual site in mongol i can't where the president might go up in may after the south koreans and north koreans meet for the first time since 1953. >> steve: does look like the thaw started with the olympics. because the koreans, the north and the south, all the athletes mankd out under one banner. some talks started there. where is it going to lead? stay tuned. brian: the question is are they flat on their back? we know so little. are they about to lose power? are they about to be in the middle of some type of revolution and are we maybe they have no choice but to deal with us. steve: maybe they are about to join the world community

and denuke. so stay tuned to that. meanwhile, let's talk a little bit about this as well. the president did not wind up with adequate funding for his big border wall in that omnibus which it sounds like they will try to claw some of the money back from anyway. not for the wall but for other things. but the president at the end of last week ordered the national guard to our southern border. the secretary of defense ordered up, authorized up to 4,000 and now we're learning that some of the states from already contributed. texas is ready, new mexico is ready i don't think they have heard from california or arizona. some interior states are also willing to send national guard troops to our southern border. keep america safe. ainsley: james mattis and dhs secretary kirstjen nielsen they released a statement and said they appreciate the governor's support. those governors that are supporting them. they look forward to working with me governors.

tweeted out last night and said 500 troops are deploying immediately, he said that includes vehicles, equipment and helicopters. brian: most laughable thing people saying there is no problem at the border. everything is down. it was down immediately and now it's going back up. each if it is down from previous years, 300,000 people coming to our country illegally ising something that has to be addressed. that's why this president was electioned. lindsey graham said he was speaking with the president. might be something in the spring where the president revisits a deal on daca for 25 billion and lock to count to build that wall in a massive comprehensive way. ainsley: he wants that 25 billion. he only got 1.6. steve: we will have the great govern governor of texas greg abbott in the next hour. right now it's time for news. jillian: good monday morning to you guys. get to headlines we are following. we now know the names of the

two soldiers killed at fort campbell. james cass donna and warrant officer ryan connolly losing their lives friday night. their deaths mark the third deadly crash for the military in one week. seven service members killed in all. it is john bolton's first day on the job as the president's new national security advisor. and as bolton begins the national security council spokesman is leaving. the white house did not give a reason for michael anton's departure. the president called him over the weekend to thank him for his work. stormy daniels renewing efforts to get questions under oath. daniels attorney filing a second motion to depose president trump and his personal lawyer michael cohen about a $130,000 payment. the money was given to daniels to get her to keep quiet about her alleged affair with trump. daniels attorney filed a similar motion or a week ago which a judge deemed premature. president trump says he didn't know about the payment and denies the

affair. american golfer patrick read red is the master's champion. >> yes, it will. captain america captures agus attachment. jillian: the drama yesterday. the 27-year-old claiming first major title. president trump congratulating reed. congratulations on patrick reed on courageous win. when patrick had his amazing win, people saw his great talent and a bright future ahead. now he is the masters champion. i don't know about you guys that jordan spieth could pull this off or ricky at the end. ainsley: you watched it yesterday? jillian: i literally sat on my couch all day long. ainsley: were you happy he won? jillian: i wanted to see more drama at the end. steve: he had a couple of great rounds. he went to college right there augusta state university.

brian: 11 minutes after the hour. ainsley: facebook set to reveal the 90 million people impact impacted by massive data scandal. we just found out what else is mark zuckerberg is doing today. steve: plus, what really happened on the tarmac that day between the former president and the attorney general. well, loretta lynch is going to set the record straight today about that meeting. what will she say? dan bongino weighs in on what she might say and he is coming up. brian: it's about the grandchildren. your an amazing machine. especially when inside another amazing machine. the lexus es. with standard technology like lexus safety system plus. the lexus es, and es hybrid. experience amazing at your lexus dealer. previously treated withd platinum-based chemotherapy, including those with an abnormal alk or egfr gene

brian: an alert. deadly missiles striking base after appear attack killed 48 victims many hours ago including 40 children. the pentagon denying any involvement in the strikes as syrian points fingers at u.s. ally israel. lindsey graham sits on the armed services committee and joints us now to react. at least 14 dead. including iranians, senator, this wasn't us. do you believe it's israel? >> i don't know. but they would have every justification to act because iran is very embedded in syria. along with hezbollah. steve: all right. brian: all right, we don't know who dead d. it but the president is tweeting out there will be retribution. what do you hope he does.

>> he says we will pay a big price. let's build that out. the regime has to pay a big price. what would be the big price, to lose your air force. this should be the last time bomb is dropped on air force. we have the ability to ground the air force and air fleet and use that capability. their air bases are flicked places on earth. we have the capability to shut them down. and we should make him pay a heavy price by destroying his air crability. capability. brian: you could argue he is the most brutal. beshear assad. he shouldn't be in power if it wasn't for the russians. should would he be targeting him? >> yes. i think now he is a legitimate war criminal in the eyes of the international community. and that assad and his inner should be considered war criminals. legitimate military targets. if you have the opportunity to take him out, you should. you should ground his air

force. you should destroy his air force. we should set up safe zones inside of syria. telling the russians and the iranians anything left of assad if you cross this line we will shoot you down so the syrian people can regroup. get the arabs involved more. pay more, have a larger presence in syria. train up the syrians, arabs and kurds to take assad on get a better peace agreement at geneva by changing the balance of power. iran is watching the president. russia is watching the president and north korea is watching the president. this president has a chance to do exactly the opposite of obama. send a strong signal that there is a new sheriff in town and america is back. brian: senator, they might be evil, but they are not stupid. they know the president just was winging it kind of seemingly and says i want pull our troops out and get our people out of there. this prevents him from doing that why would they want that? if they want us out, why would they do this? >> they think that the

western world is basically already gone anyway. the president is yelling at the world to help him more. the arabs are there but not enough of a presence. they really do believe that this will be a one and done strike. that the western world is not going to come back. that the arabs are not going to do anything differently. he is trying to show his enemy i can do anything to you i want to. the rest of the world just talks. he really believes this will be met with a very small response. one attack and it will be over. and if that happens, god help us all. brian: we only have 45 seconds left. i understand you called the president. daca could be rising from the dead in the next few weeks? what can you tell us? >> president wants to do a daca deal border wall money plus other border security measures are very much on the table. our southern border is porous. it needs to be rebuilt. strongly and the daca kids need to have certain their lives, hope president can

find democrats to work with him. i hope he will send a signal to assad and every other thug and dictator in the world. when you cross my red lines, you may a heavy price. very defining moment for the president trump. and i think he will rise to the occasion. brian: he certainly has the defense money to do it now answered certainly has the secretary of defense that knows how. senator lindsey graham, thanks so much. appreciate you getting up early for us. just trust me you are going to get a lot done today. >> i hope. so god bless. brian: 10 minutes before the bottom of the hour. president trump president trump delaying documents for 2016 investigations. took action. doj public affairs director sarah flores here with what she going to do next. liberal mayor bill de blasio all about gun control. one member of the staff didn't get the memo, got himself in trouble. he had a gun in his car ♪ i got my hands up ♪ i need an alibi ♪ i need a witness ♪ who can testify

uh huh, sure. still yes! xfinity delivers gig speed to more homes than anyone. now you can get it, too. welcome to the party. ainsley: here's come quick headlines for you. facebook notifying users whether they were impacted by massive data breach. the company will include exactly what information was given to data firm cambridge analytica. this coming as mark zuckerberg is heading to washington. he is scheduled to meet with lawmakers today before formal meetings tomorrow and wednesday. now youtube is accused of illegally collecting data from kids. several child advocacy groups suing the platform, claiming it's making big bucks off selling children's personal information to advertisers. they want youtube to change its content practices and cough up billions in fines.

steve: meanwhile, the department of justice under fire accused by the president and republican lawmakers of stalling, slow walking the release of documents related to the fisa abuse and hillary clinton email scandal. >> you show us the that led to you open up the investigation. the longer they block this from us it's going to look badly on the department of justice and fbi. ainsley: appointing u.s. attorney john lourn to oversee the production of these documents moving forward. brian: this should not be a problem but it is. doj director of public affairs sarah isgur flores joins us now. sarah, why did it come to this? >> i think that members of congress and the president are understandably frustrated with the pace of production and some of the redactions that they are seeing. i think it's so important for the fbi and the department to have credibility with congress, the president and american people. >> so the attorney general and fbi director talked this weekend and thought it was

appropriate to pick john lourn, he is the u.s. attorney in chicago. outside of the d.c. and independent hierarchy. to oversee the production and oversee the redaction and meet with members of congress to explain how this process is working and why it's not working as fast as they may want it to. ainsley: why is it taking so long to get all the documents? >> i think it's important to look at what this is a lot of members of congress have gone on this show and described this as 1.2 million documents. these 1.2 million pages are what the inspector general took to look through that could include everyone's emails for a whole time period. tons of that will be completely unreality to the mostly cloudy hillary clinton investigation. it's against the rules, prohibited by federal rules of civil procedure for us to just turn over those documents to congress. they could include grand jury material. classified material. or something about ongoing investigations that are

totally unrelated to hillary clinton. so it's really important that we have to get these redaxzs right. and unfortunately that just takes time. this morning we are turning over another 3600 pages. and hopefully that will help members of congress see we are absolutely moving through this process. not slow-walking it and want very much to work with them so they can have their oversight rule. steve: sarah, there are some congressional investigators that do not trust the people at the department of justice who are doing the redacting because they have seen a page that's partially blacked out and then they have seen the original document and it's like why did they black that stuff out? they don't trust some of the people who are working there. >> i know. and that's a shame. that situation we are the ones inviting them to come over and see the unredacted version. we are going to send you redacted pages because again we have to redact some of these things, if you are curious or worried that we recovery redacted come to the department of justice and see the unredacted

version which is how in this case we said we don't think that was the correct redaction. i think we can argue over what was correctly or not correctly redacted but that's why they can come and see it. steve: who are you making that offer to because there a lot of members of congress and staff who would like to see that stuff and they call the department of justice and they say no, we're not going to show you that stuff. steve: i do. i have heard that from two different investigators on capitol hill. >> we have invited six committees to see a lot of classified material testify at the department. the text messages, for instance, you are referring to and redacted part, we did show them the unredacted part. that's how they got to see it. brian: i know it's no reflection on you but it's embarrassment that it has to come to this that somebody on the outside has to be hired to oversee people that president trump put in place in order to get to the bottom of this effort that took place in 2016. >> well, brian, let's be clear, john lourn is a department of justice. is he not outside hire. he is u.s. attorney for the northern district.

brian: had to bring someone else to oversee it because no one can do it. >> i don't think that's necessarily true. i do think it's absolutely important that congress and the president believes that wee have someone who is an experienced litigator who has done document production and with k. walk through. this. ainsley: sarah, is this going to work and move this along a lot faster. >> i certainly hope. so we are open to criticism from the congress and the president how to do this better. so, you know, if this doesn't work we will keep trying. ainsley: sarah, you said congress is able to go in and see the we americans with disabilities acted forms. why not give them the redacted forms? are you worried they will take it outside in the public and the public will see all these emails and information they are not allowed to see? >> we are not allowed to give out this of course. in grand jury information would be against the rules. classified information, you know, some of the committees can have places where they can store classified information and some don't. you know, for instance, on the text messages, there were 56,000 text messages only some of which were about hillary and some of

which might be about their children or other personal things that seemed unrelated to what congress is looking for. brian: when you give a thousand instead of a million pages that's a problem. trey gowdy even-tempered and nonpolitical as a politician can be beside himself along with devin nunes in front of people that were appointed by president trump, i just don't get it but hopefully things are going to be involved. >> i think that's an important point. we are all trump appointees overseeing this process. so, when you see that frustration, i think it's really important to realize, those million pages, the majority are completely unrelated to what congress asked us for. so we are trying to give them what they asked for. steve: what you are saying today is the slow-walking is over, right? >> the slow-walking is over. steve: good enough. sarah, thank you very much for coming on to explain. >> you bet. steve: meanwhile, in other news, dozens of texas national guard troops already at the southern border and many more are on

ainsley: many texas national guard troops already arriving at the southern border answering the call from defense secretary jim mattis who ordered up to 4,000 troops to help stem illegal immigration. brian: griff jenkins is live at camp mayberry in texas with a look what's going on and how close we are to getting those men and women on the border. hey, griff. griff: good morning, guys. brian, they are active status right now. they are armored up, they are on the border, 250 guard troops. taking to the skies. taking to the ground. giving the border patrol support. they have had 100 guardsmen

already here since 2014. we came here to the headquarters, camp mayberry talk to big deer general to talk about the mission. here is what she had to say. >> i see it as evolving mission and we are still identifying the requirements. we have some. we are expecting to have more coming from the border and if for some reason with our rotation and if we get to a full capacity we also have the ability, if we need to to call on other states to assist us. >> some other states, new mexico, ohio, south carolina, willing to send troops if need be. arizona, of course, has already answered the call. they are sending guardsmen, we are waiting on california. the guard there says they are willing. the governor hasn't yet activated them. but you know, i talked to general norris also about what role they will play because under title 32 they are authorized to act in law enforcement duties. but it appears they will be mostly support stitch, here is what general no norris says.

>> under our governor in title 32, we're in support role to law enforcement or any other federal agency or any other state agency. but we are always in support of first responders or law enforcement. >> now, a little bit later today guys, we will go on one of the first missions in a helicopter over the border and show you how these guardsmen are bringing you eyes in the sky. interestingly enough, a quick last tid bit, it was hurricane harvey the last time this group was mobilized like this. guys? steve: and they did very well. all right, griff, thank you very much for the live report from austin. let's bring in dan bongino, former new york city cop, former secret service guy, he hosts the wildly successful dan bongino show over on crtv. dan, what do you make of the fact that the president has called up the national guard. texas, new mexico, arizona, they are ready to send folks.

iowa, ohio, say they are willing. montana says we are not going to help. >> entirely political. not based on national security needs or law enforcement needs. this was not a controversial decision when george w. bush did it in 2006. or when barack obama deployed troops to the border in 2010. it's all politics. remember, border apprehensions are up. there has been a surge of people trying to get into the country, no doubt. brian: the spring surge started early. by the way, 300,000 people coming annually, that's a problem. i don't care if that's up or down. 300,000 that don't belong here. i have got to switch gears if i can and talk about what's going to be happening over the next couple of weeks. first james comey's book coming out. really inflame a lot of the narratives with this investigation since the 2016 election. then we have loretta lynch curiously, going to sit down for an interview today to talk about a lot of things, including her tarmac meeting with bill clinton. and what she actually said to james comey. what are you going to be listening for?

>> i will tell you i'm going to be listening for every word out of her mouth because loretta lynch should be talking to lawyer and so should jim comey. they shouldn't be talking to the american public about book sales and interviews. brian, i believe they may have serious criminal liability on potential obstruction of justice charges based on their handling of the clinton case. here is a couple questions for her. number one, why did you ask him to refer, jim comey that is investigation into the hillary clinton issue as a matter? it was not a matter. it was an investigation. and, secondly, what did you do to authenticate the information that came in on the dossier, the department of justice had a role in that and the woods procedure. what did she do? what did she no and when did she know it? she may be in real trouble here. steve: have you got these dueling narratives. her trying to explain on ntsb news tonight her side of the story and james comey coming out with his book next week. neither one of them are under oath, on television or in a book. so it will be interesting to

see what kind of yarns they are going to spin. >> but they are public statements. those statements will unquestionably used later if they tell a different story under oath later on. that's the important part. ainsley: we talked a lot about twitter. and twitter has gotten a lot of flack for shadow banning conservatives when they tweet so that other people can't see them. now the ceo, he likes an article that was on twitter from the -- from a publication called medium. the ceo jack dorsey, he liked this article, which was suggesting that democrats start a civil war. and he wrote great read. what do you think about that? >> yeah, i'm really sick of twitter. i mean, i have to be there. i'm in the content production arena like fox is and i have to be on it. but every minute of it is troubling to me. it is not -- to steal the liberal snowflake term. it's not a safe space for

conservatives anymore. i was banned guys for running ads for quote inappropriate content. i have no idea what that means. we scoured our twitter feed. they never told us what it means. i think dennis prager's place prager u had problem too. being a conservative is what is inappropriate content. really, i will tell you, every conservative out there. start working on an alternate plan because they are going to come after you next. steve: you are not alone. brian: neil ferguson of the hoover institute came and said silicon valley is embarrassed of the role they played unwittingly to help donald trump get elected. overcompensate in the mid terms and look out. guess what, it is happening. >> it is happening. look at that article about ted cruz, he has twice the following of ca kamala harris and gets a quarter of the retreats or something. this is happening. make no mistake. be prepared and get ready to build your own platforms outside of the social media

space. ainsley: is it the left trying to shut up conservatives? >> it's about committing a thought crime. and that's in allegiance to conservative ideology in a liberal silicon valley. that's really what it is. steve: diamond and silk got banned by youtube because they are unsafe. we are going to be talking to bottom in about 45 minutes. dan, thank you very much for joining us today from palm city down in florida. >> thanks, guys. brian: meanwhile, 19 minutes before the top of the hour. this republican congressman is a firm believer in the second amendment. is he coming under scrutiny for pulling out a gun town hall. the congressman here to set the record straight next. ainsley: plus our friends diamond and silk silenced by facebook as we were mentioning. the social network says they are unsafe to the community. they are going to join us live to respond in the next hour. >> i have seen a lot of things on facebook. shootings and killings and people being beat with stilettos. that is unsafe to me.

steve: ralph norman second amendment conceal carry permit holder. pulling out a gun during meet and greet with to show them how to make a gun safer. ainsley: thank you for joining us. >> my pleasure. ainsley: a lot of people are upset. you pulled out a gun. why did you do that? why did you bring the gun as a demonstration there in rock hill? >> ainsley, let me tell you your dad coached and my brother played there. we bought supplies from him. is he a great guy. ainsley: he is the best. thank you so much for saying that. >> we have a coffee with the congressman that i have done since i got elected. when mick mulvaney took the job at omv. i go to different places and last week i went to a restaurant that did not ban firearms, that hosted me coming in and having the coffee with the congressman.

there was a lot of people there. there was a group with red t-shirts on. and it had moms demand action for gun safety in america. and i could have sat anywhere. i sat with them. i had met one of the girls earlier. she had been by the office. she was a big democrat. big bernie sanders, from what i understanding. and anyway. i sat there and i said help me understand what your t-shirts mean. and they went in to the fact that they wanted some legislation on domestic violence. i said that's fine. get me the language and let me see what our staff can do with it. and then i said let me make a statement that i'm sure everybody would agree with. and that was that shooters, people that kill people have mental, emotional and spiritual problems. i said we agree with that, don't we? they all sat there. didn't say anything. i said, you know, this is a short conversation if you can't agree with that.

and then i said i'm tired of the police being demonized. i'm tired of the nra being demonized. and i'm tired of guns in and of themselves being demonized as the problem. and the fellow sitting in front of me ralph, don't you carry a gun? i said absolutely i do. then i reached in my pocket, safely, pulled out the gun and laid it in front of me. and i said this gun doesn't shoot by itself. it takes a person behind it. and then i put the gun back in my pocket. and then the next thing i know front page news congressman ralph norman pulls a gun at an event. two days in a row i have had front page news questioning the legality of what i did. and i didn't do anything wrong. steve: there was somebody in attendance, lori freeman a volunteer with one of the people in the t-shirts you

were describing a little while ago, she said she felt unsafe that you did that gabriel giffords wrote this, serving in congress is about listening and leadership, not intimidation and shomanship. when leaders make constituents feel unsafe, they have no place in elected office. what would you like to say about that? >> well, the picture that the herald ran was lori freeman who was smiling at the end of the the conversation. she could have left. at no time was she upset. she was smiling. afterward she did want to come by the office. what she did was saw this as an opportunity to make something over not anything. and i was trying to answer the questions the only reason i pulled the gun out or placed the gun on the table was to prove a point that the gun doesn't shoot by itself. steve: congressman, if you had a do-over, would you do that again? >> absolutely.

i didn't do anything wrong. you mention gabriel giffords, she is a hero. she a survivor. my pint there was, if somebody had had a loaded handgun, that could have shot, that could have stopped her shooting, that would have been a good thing. i believe that the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. and evidently the left does not believe that. ainsley: okay. congressman, thank you for telling us your side of the story. we appreciate you coming on this morning. >> my pleasure. ainsley: have a good one. the manhunt for drug king pin he will chap made headlines. we're getting the inside scoop from the man who captured him. drew hogan shares his story, including the souvenir that he took from he wil el chapo net

d.e.a. hooked up with undercover task force officer there where he introduced me to the mexican culture. and really got me involved in seeing what the narcokind of lifestyle felt like. and you know, i learned about el chapo from day one when i walked in from my partner diego who was in the book. ainsley: how did it happen? >> it took a lot of team work. it's not about one man. it's about how two countries the united states and mexico came together and worked hand in hand with each other to accomplish something most thought was impossible. brian: when you got to him, what did you see? also, you took something before you left. >> i did. i was -- when we were hitting his houses and he escaped from underneath the bathtub inside a tunnel. steve: he heard you coming. >> yeah, he heard us coming for sure.

i grabbed a black hat i found in his closet. took that as my only souvenir of the hunt and i rapid to wear it on the raid february 22nd that early morning and had his black hat on when i came face to face with him. steve: you capture him. he is put in prison and ultimately it sounds like somebody was able to track exactly where he was. they built a tunnel, he got out. >> right. yeah. steve: thanks a lot. >> pretty predictable. you know, same tunnels -- same tunnel construction under the safe houses that were at the u.s. border. and, you know, if you don't have him on lockdown, he was going to get out. steve: eventually they tracked him down and not too far from where we are sitting right here. >> you are right. the mexican marines were phenomenal. they mounted up again. it was that same brigade, using same blueprint of intelligence we had provided them for many months and they got him. brian: the inside story is

in your book exclusively, hunting el chapo. congratulations. thank you so much. great career ahead of you. >> thank you. brian: straight ahead we have governor greg abbott live. and true story of diamond and silk being banned from facebook. well, like most of you, i just bought a house. -oh! -very nice. now i'm turning into my dad. i text in full sentences. i refer to every child as chief. this hat was free. what am i supposed to do, not wear it? next thing you know, i'm telling strangers defense wins championships. -well, it does. -right? why is the door open? are we trying to air condition the whole neighborhood? at least i bundled home and auto

steve: speaking of line in the sand. remember that regarding syriaened a president obama? well, now, the president of the united states, donald trump has made it very clear when he was talking to the french president macron there needed to be a strong joint response to the chemical attack on damascus neighborhood on saturday that killed at least 40 people. it's pretty clear some sort of chemical weapon was used. a lot of people are saying there was a strong chlorine smell. so probably a chlorine bomb. now we know that apparently somebody. and we have heard it's not the united states, but somebody struck back. ainsley: syria and russia are denying that this even happened believe it or not, even though you have those images right there. russia says it's fake news, vintage fabricated. lining you said there were air strikes in retaliation. who did that we're not sure. we are saying we did not do it. france is saying they did not do it. russia is blaming israel. israel has not confirmed it was them. 14 people died in that retaliation. they hit a military airport

near the city of holmes. brian: that was this morning. that's the response. it's not our response. and you heard, you know, i think that the president ever since he sent the 57 tomahawks into syria there have been less attacks. and violence has lessoned since he took office. so-called cease-fire took place. other gas attacks nothing to this point. what would be assad's point of view. this buecheer is bette butcher f with us out of there. there is a push back and debate. now, there is no way the president wants to mo his 2,000 troops out. he knows what would happen. >> it would be a huge vacuum and thugs like this would be allowed to live. ainsley: think about what a sick guy this is that could do this to his own people. steve: i know. the images we are showing you. we are showing you the least offensive of them. ainsley: what we can show

you. steve: still so hard to look at. ainsley: they are children. steve: white house said all options are on the table. he wrote many dead, including women and children in mindless chemical attack in syria. area of atrocity is in lockdown and encircled unaccessible to the outside world. president pus, russia and iran are responsible for animal assad big price to pay. other humanitarian disaster for no reason whatsoever. sick. if president obama had crossed his stated red line in the sand, the syrian disaster would have ended long ago. animal assad would have been history. do you know who is working on this today? john bolton, today is his first day on the job. he has got -- when he walks in, the phone is going to be ringing. brian: thought he was going to be focusing on the summit with north korea. i liked everything about that tweet except on the hit with president obama.

i hated it when president obama was doing it to bush. look forward and stop blaming. let the historians rate what kind of foreign policy these presidents have had. senator lindsey graham joined us 45 minutes ago and says he expects a big hit back and knows exactly what they should do. all the airports and assad himself. listen. >> assad and his inner circle should be considered war criminals, legitimate military targets. if you have the opportunity to take him out, you should. you should ground his air force. you should destroy his air force. we should set up safe zones inside of syria telling the russians and the iranians and anything left of assad if you cross this line we will shoot you down. this president has a chance to do exactly the opposite of obama. send a strong signal that there's a new sheriff in town. steve: he is calling out president obama as well. what's going to happen next? also a number of experts are calling for no-fly zone to

the east of damascus which is essentially the land where isis had been but president trump eradicated that. essentially it's what george herbert walker bush did after the first gulf war. what will happen? don't know. brian: they have bolstered up since the taum hock tom hawk. we would think to be better highs more sophisticated weaponry. rescue plan to if our jets go in there everything is telegraphed we have to be able to get to our people on the ground. ainsley: we saw what our president did last year when it happened when we saw all the chemical attacks. we know how our president responded again it will be interesting to see how he responds in a few days. steve: you know there are a number of congressional investigators on capitol hill trying to figure out whether or not the department of justice, the fbi were corrupt in the way they opened the spine on the trump administration. there has been a call from

certain members of congress to release over a million documents. so far only 3,000 have been released. and the president of the united states at the end of last week sent out some tweets about what's going on at the department of justice. they are slow-walking it. sarah flores who is the doj public affairs director was with us about a half an hour ago. she said you know what? we are doing everything we can we brought in this new guy from the northern district of illinois. u.s. attorney john laura -- john lousch. she said the slow-walking is over. >> these 1.2 million pages are what the inspector general who is within the department of justice took from the department to look through. tons of that will be completely unrelated to hillary clinton investigation. and so it is actually against the rules prohibited by federal rules of civil procedure for us to just turn over those documents to congress. they could include grand jury material. classified material.

or something about ongoing investigations that are totally unrelated to hillary clinton. so, it's really important that we have to get these redactions right. and unfortunately that just takes time. brian: right. but there is no excuse for the amount of time. 1.2 million documents you give over a couple thousand. people upset trey gowdy who on yesterday said this is your job to get this done. this is not acceptable. devin nunes called into the show with the same type of -- he is just aghast at the entire operation. ainsley: this guy needs to come in and make sure there are more people to do. this clearly not enough people behind the scenes going through the situation. brian: that's very kind of you or they don't want to, ainsley. steve: looks like the department of justice is covering for bad actor at the department of justin or the fbi. we have heard that some of the redactions on some of the documents they have given to congress were things that didn't need to be redacted.

it just looked like they were covering some cya going on there. brian bine we would have never known about the cocktail party where a fisa judge was at and peter strzok said i have got to be able to go into a crowded area like an he had sewed of billions. i don't want anyone to think it's me and him. at the cocktail party i'm going to button hole the guy and get their points across. wouldn't know about their relationship and why reactions took place. at the very least if the fbi and department of justice can't serve justice, what does it say about our country. ainsley: definitely something going on. she said we are handing information to congress. and redacted information. and you said you have talked to individuals who say some of this stuff doesn't need to be redacted. steve: that's right. ainsley: how do they know is that? sarah says they released the original information without the redactions. so why not give them all the information without redactions? doesn't make sense. steve: they are making it complicated. also the members of congress have got to go over to the

department of justice. in many cases they can't take notes so they can read it. but they can't take notes. so they cannot report on what happened. brian: how does it all play into what loretta lynch is going to say and james comey put out in his book in two weeks. try to keep up with it it's going to get complicated. we will break it down four. steve: we will. that's our job. thanks for joining us today. ainsley: hand it over to jillian who has more headlines. jillian: good morning to you. hope had you a good weekend. an urgent multi-state hunt intensifying for a man to confessed on facebook to killing his friends. he shot two and felt he added nothing. quote nothing anyone has or done to me hawzd. caused. this found his abandoned car in mississippi and warned he is dangerous. teenage slams into a bridge overpass and shears off roof. long island high students and chaperones coming home

allowing our agents that do that now to be freed up to go and be redeployed to the line. we will add to capacity using that workforce to raise security levels. steve: okay. ron, are they going to be armed? >> they are going to be protected self-defense. none of the individual assignments we are giving them will require them to be armed because they are not going to be doing law enforcement duties. they will have the ability to defend themselves depending on what the assignments are. steve: sure, one of the reasons the president ordered the national guard out last week in the omnibus bill he didn't get the money to build the big wall he was talking about. what is the status of the adjusted wall or whatever they are going to be able to do with the money they got? i know that the language was very specific you couldn't build any of the prototypes that we have seen but you could replace the wall, right? >> right. so there are projects ongoing now in calexico, california. under this president of leadership we obtained money

in 17. >> the omnibus has more in 18. replacement wall in calexico going to 30 feet. new project starts in new mexico this week as well. steve: one of the things that's frustrated the president and a lot of people in the country is the fact that all have you got to do is if you cross into the country illegally, then by law or by statute or by executive decree, essentially, those who were detained were caught and released back into the interior of the country. and a lot of cases you never see them again. but the president apparently over the weekend ended catch and release via executive order. when's that going to go into effect? >> he has given us a number of days, i think 45 days to put together implementation plans. my experience on the border, what we have seen over my career's time is that consequences matter. what the president is saying is that the abuse of the az asylum law and loopholes in

current immigration laws if you come as a family or come as a child unaccompanied are being exploited. and so if we end catch and release, we will reduce those numbers, making the border safer and allows border patrol agents concentrate on the other threats out there. hard narcotics are up. assaults on agents are up. we need to reduce the activity level at the border and consequences are very important in that. steve: seeking of consequences attorney general jeff sessions is apparently telling his law enforcement to have a zero tolerance policy towards illegals. so, generally, if you jump the border, you wind up getting detained by ice and then there is the catch and release. however, he is saying maybe you should look at, because it's a misdemeanor, whoever does that could wind up in jail for six months. >> yes. so there are a number of prosecutions that happen daily for people who enter illegally. and the attorney general's memo to his line of attorneys is to expand the use of those prosecutions. steve: all right. very good. interesting stuff.

ronald vitiello, the acting commissioner of u.s. border and customs protection joins us from d.c. thank you very much. >> thanks for having me. steve: what do you think about that? let us know on twitter and facebook and email: london now needs knife control. no kidding. start turning in your utensils. we will talk about that. plus, diamond and silk say they are being silenced by facebook. the social network claiming diamond and silk unsafe to the community. do they look unsafe to you? they're next ♪ and go to our coffee shop. and meet dave. hey. why is dark magic so spell-bindingly good, he asks? let me show you. let's go. so we climb. hike. see a bear. woah. reach the top. dave says dark magic is a bold blend of coffee with rich flavors of uganda, sumatra, colombia and other parts of south america. like these mountains, each amazing on their own. but together? magical. all, for a smoother tasting cup of coffee.

being behind his agenda and they want to shut us down. that's not going to work with diamond and silk. steve: io ge steve: i don't get when facebook -- i get they are private companies and social media outfits they can decide who does and does not get access. still, don't you want everybody to have a voice? why would they cut out y'all? >> everybody is supposed to have a voice on these platforms. >> that's right. >> let me make this clear, facebook is really not a private entity because now they can trade through the stock market. that means they are open to the public. i believe this is very dangerous for facebook to try to be the world police. they are not the world police. they don't get to dictate who say what and who don't say. what this is dangerous. it's time for congress and our justice department. people need to step in and take a look at this here. this whole thing is dangerous. how are we allowing this one entity to control almost the whole world and dominate and tell people what they can see and what they can't see.

this is dangerous. brian: mark zuckerberg is going to be on capitol hill tomorrow. it's going be explosive. he might wear a tie. we are aware of this issue, we are reaching out to the creators of diamond and silk to try to resolve this matter. who created you. >> we created. we are our brand. steve: they are reaching out to you. >> we are diamond and silk. steve: ultimately, here's the thing. what they are trying to do is trying to cut off your money. trying to demonetize you so you can't make money. dan bongino was on about an hour ago. he explained how there are a number of social media platforms that do that to cut off the, you know, the right point of view. >> can i just say this real quick? they tell us, especially black people all the time. pull yourself up by your bootstrap? how can you do that when somebody takes you and tries to hang you out to dry. i think it's unfair and you have the. they need to fix this and

fix this immediately, it was a defamation of our character because diamond and silk are two talents. that's what we do. this is defamation of our characters. what is so unsafe about us telling the truth. ainsley: why are you speaking out ladies? why is it important to do that. >> listen, i speak out today it's me. tomorrow it could be you. i don't care what side of the aisle you are on. >> that's right. >> this is dangerous. we have millions -- listen, our pay started with only about 30 followers. now we have millions of followers. let them see our content. they like and follow our page. let them see our content. let them be able to view that. brian: thanks so much. >> thank you for having us. steve: as soon as they explain to the creators, facebook does, we will relay to you what their thinking was. ainsley: almost like they didn't know they were people. the creators of diamond and silk. brian: call their central office call there and see if we can get through the switch board and find out if somebody is in human

♪ >> we have 250. they are on the border and in route to the border or they are arming preparing to go to the border. so they are on duty right now. we are planning for that number to grow. we are planning to raise that number on a weekly basis until we are either told that's enough or to continual to bring troops on. ainsley: let's bring in the texas governor, governor greg abbott. thank you for coming in to be with us. >> i'm honored to be here with you, thank you so much. good morning. ainsley: more national guard troops are heading down to your state on the border. what is your role in this. >> of course, the way this works is that the governors are in charge of the national guard. and so, even the way this is structured right now, the governors will remain in charge of the national guard

in our state. so we work in conjunction with the president, with the homeland security to make sure this is all working seemlessly. listen, this is nothing new. this is something that was done under president bush, under president obama. and i have got to tell you, the people of texas are very appreciative. the president of the united states has recognized this is a problem. he made a commitment when he ran for president and he has been adamant that he wanted to do everything he can to secure the border. texas wants to ensure that we secure the border. you need to understand this is a mathematical need for this. because the people coming across the border have increased dramatically, more than 200 percent month on month in the month of march of what it was the year before. what we have seen in the past is when we do add these national guard, it has a meaningful impact in reducing the flow of people coming across the border. let me tell you why, because this is something that has not been discussed. what is going on is people don't just happen to come in to the united states. they get here by the drug

cartels and by the coyotes who bring them across. every time we have increased the forces on the ground. there has been decrease of the cartel activity and coyote activity. because they realize they will be losing money. part of our job is to put these cartels and coyotes out of business. whenever we are able to ramp up the support on the ground, it puts them out of business and it's going to make the border a far more secure place. steve: not only has the president ordered up to 4,000 members of the national guard, on our southern border, but over the weekend he signed an executive order ending catch and release. so, the magnet is turned off. >> right. that was so important. again, another smart move by the president. ditching failed policies of the past. you know, if people think they can come across the border and they are just going to be caught and released and maybe never have to show back up for judicial proceedings or if they do it's going to be half a decade later, it's going to be something where they stay here forever.

this is signaling to people who are crisscrossing mexico, coming from central america, coming from other places around the country that this is the wrong thing to do. i have got to tell you one very important thing here, that is people need to understand that it has been reported by amnesty international, not a conservative bastion, they came out and said about 6 in 10 women and children who have to crisscross all the way across mexico from central america are going to be sexually assaulted or subject to sexual abuse in one fashion or another. steve: when the president said that last week he took heat for that. >> there are objective studies out there. go look at amnesty international. did a report that was -- or they wrote up the report that was done in mexico. the problem is now because this information comes from the people who are trafficked across mexico, these studies are not conducted by people here in the united states. just look at what amnesty international has written about it.

brian: gotcha. trying to provide warnings people coming across mexico. anyone trying to attract these people they are putting these women and children in harm's way. brian: i was to give you all the money you want to build as much wall as you want. how many miles do you need is there a plan to increase the beds because with no catch and release there is no place to hold them. >> we have people there. and the other thing we have got to do i know the president is working on that i know that the secretary of homeland security is working on is trying to expedite this process. part of that may have to require changing the law. brian: more judges? >> more judges. but we have got to be able to. brian: do you know how many miles of wall, roughly? what do you need? >> here's the deal that everyone has begun to recognize. that is different topographies, different regions of the united states are more accommodative of the wall than others. there is a serpentine fashion, i think have you seen the rio grande river in

the state of texas, then there is a big national park out there with mountains and river and so it's been recognized there are certain regions where it's going to be more difficult than others to place the wall and that's precisely why we need more assets on the ground and some of the assets will be because of the national guard doing functions that the border patrol is currently doing, which is not being on the front lines, we will now have more front line border patrol parole the regions, keeping it safe, making sure we will be able to have the boots on the ground as well as the technology and the assets on the ground. this is going to be a virtual and personnel wall to make sure that the country is going to be more secure at this time when we have had more than 200 percent increase in the number of people who are coming across the border without authority. brian: guardsmen are not going to be able to do as much, right? >> listen, the way this works, is the guardsmen will not be armed on the border. the guardsmen will be doing the functions, the border patrol have been doing when the border patrol have not

been on the ground. let me give you a couple of examples. that is there will be air patrol. national guard as opposed to the border patrol doing the air patrol. there will be lookouts. people with eyes on the ground watching what's coming in. it can be the national guard performing that function as oppose to the the border patrol. this is going to free up more border patrol to engage in the apprehension and arrest of the people who are coming across the border. ainsley: that makes sense. all right, governor, thank you for come in and explaining all this to us. steve: and in new york. >> good to be here. brian: thanks, governor. meanwhile it's good to have jillian full time. jillian: thank you. good to be here full time thank you very much. forget gun control. london's mayor is now going after knives. deacon responding to upswing in stabbings. never reason to carry a knife. anyone caught with one will feel the full force of the law. london has seep 50 homicides this year postally by stabbing. a teenager caught on dash cam leading police on a wild

welcome back. >> brian, good to be with you. thank you. brian: first off. what was your reaction when you saw the chlorine gas attack of syria. this is almost a year to the day when we sent 57 tomahawks over there. >> outrage, horror. frankly what the president called him he is an animal. he is a brutal dictator and his response to his own people asking for more freedom and opportunity killing them including with gas. so, i think one of the big mistakes president obama made was drawing that red line, saying if assad uses gas, we'll respond, he used gas, and we didn't do anything. and that just invited a lot of the troubles that have happened since then. brian: the president immediately tweeted this ou out:

brian: what's your reaction? is that strong enough? >> yeah. tough language from president trump. but, in my opinion, absolutely correct. accurate. factual. the world pulled back, including the u.s. under president obama, let this country go wild, assad do whatever he wanted. iran was already in there, increased its presence. they have tens of thousands there. and then russia saw an opening and moved in. and assad now thinks he can do whatever he wants with his people, including breaking that line of civil behavior and using gas. brian: senator lindsey graham told us an hour ago targeting assad should be on the table. does joe lieberman think so. >> i think everything should be on the table. including that in other words, i see assad's use of chemical weapons again as a kind of an arrogant, either provocation to us or a

statement to his enemies on the ground there. america is going to leave and we can do whatever we want to our people. i don't think that's what president trump meant to say. i appreciate president trump's outrage at the use of chemical weapons, and now i think we and our allies have to follow up and it ought to be strong. we should hit their military, maybe we should do what we said we talked about a long time ago which was the ground their air force. brian: absolutely. let's talk about john bolton's first day today. what's going to be his impact with this president? >> i mean, i'm biased. john bolton is my friend. i have known him for a long time. he is very smart. he has great experience in the state department. justice department. he has a point of view. i think he will help the president with a big strategic view of the world. and he is principled. but i think he also understands that he is working for the president. that's the president's right to choose him, but he is the national security advisor. he will form the options for

president trump on different important foreign policy questions like the ones we are talking about in syria. and he will give his advice when the president wants it. i think the country is going to be well-served and the president is going to be well-served by having a person of john bolton's experience right next to him. brian: if he doesn't get his way he will not call "the washington post." that will be key. >> no. he is a loyal guy. brian: senator, always great to see you. you look fantastic. >> thank you, brian. you too. brian: we are marching onto the mid terms, right? democratic senator joe manchin trying to hang on to his seat in trump friendly west virginia. can he do it? dr. larry sabato putting on the stethoscope for us. trying something new can be exciting. empowering. downright exhilarating. see for yourself why chevrolet is the most awarded and fastest growing brand, the last four years overall. switch into a new chevy now.

ainsley: is the march to the

midterm -- it is the march to the mid terms and all week long we are going to be highlighting different races ahead of the mid terms that are important. we are kicking things off with the senate race in west virginia where republican challengers are hoping to unseat senator joe manchin. will the moderate democratic will be able to hang on to his seat in the trump friendly mountain state. here to break it down is larry sabato. good morning, larry, thanks for joining us. >> good morning, ainsley. ainsley: so there are three republicans that want to unseat joe manchin. who are these candidates, please? >> congressman evan jenkins, who has had time in the state legislature as well congress. attorney general morse morrisey and don blankenship, a controversial candidate, doing reasonably well in the polls. he owned a coal mine where there was a terribly deadly accident and blanken ship

actually served time in prison. ainsley: wow. and he is doing well? who is the frontrunner. >> most republicans in west virginia think that jenkins is the frontrunner. but they can also see a scenario whereby morrisy wins. everyone i talks to says blanken ship gets the nomination they won't spend nearly as much money in the fall trying to beat manchin. ainsley: blankenship is the only one out of those three that the president didn't invite to his round table last week. when you look to 2016, i know that president trump took 68.5% of the votes in that state and hillary clinton got 26.4. that's a big difference. so, when you look at that, you wonder how did joe manchin win and why hasn't a republican had that seat? >> that's a great question. no state in the country has changed more than west virginia. in 1988, they voted democratic in the presidential election by 12 percentage points. as you just noted, they voted for donald trump by 42

percentage points. no state has moved further and that was trump's best state. that's manchin's big problem. he has been winning because west virginia used to be heavily democratic and manchin had a series of election victories and is well known. but this is his toughest test ever. he is a fighter. he is a scrapper. he's a survivor. but he is going to have to prove that all over again in november. ainsley: all right, larry sabato, thank you for your insight. >> thank you. ainsley: you're welcome. still ahead, wisconsin governor scott walker, michelle malkin and energy secretary rick perry. they are all here live ♪ ♪ cal. all, for a smoother tasting cup of coffee. cal. green mountain coffee roasters.

were killed in a missile attack on an airbase in syria called t-4. russia says israel was behind the airstrike. a lot of people thought the united states was. our pentagon said nope, we're not involved. ainsley: our president tweeted out, he said, many dead including women and children. in mindless chemical attack in syria. area of atrocity is in lockdown encircled by syrian army making inaccessible to outside world. putin, russia, iran are responsible for backing animal assad. big price to be paid. another humanitarian disaster for no reason whatsoever. sick. if president obama had crossed the state red line in the sand, the syrian disaster would have ended long ago. animal assad would have been history. brian: president picked up the phone, called iraqi leader, abadi, what do you have, what do

you know? they exchanged information. looked at assets in iraq. he went out of his way to thank the president for putting troops there to out of isis. senator lindsey graham immediately speaking to the president he looks for firm action. says right now the world is watching to see what we will do. here is what he told us an hour and 15 minutes ago. >> assad and his inner circle should be considered war criminals. legitimate military targets. if you have the opportunity take him out you should. you should ground his air force. you should destroy his air force. we should set up safe zones inside of syria telling the russians and the iranians and anything left of assad if you cross this line we will shoot you down. this president has a chance to do exactly the opposite of obama. send a strong signal there is a new sheriff in town. steve: there is a new sheriff in town. the united nations security council will meet today in

emergency session to figure out what to do about this. it is john bolton's first day on the job. he has a full plate. don't be surprised if they institute one of those no-fly zones over earn portions of syria. a lot of experts say it would be a good start. where does it lead? stay tuned. all we know a missile strike. apparently syria shot down five of eight of them. three others landed in syria. we were not responsible for the strike on syria according to the pentagon. brian: russia, israel crossed through lebanese airspace in order to do it t would make sense, it is not us, who else would it be. if no-fly zone what if russians go up in it? will we shoot down a russian jet? steve: we've done it before. george herbert walker bush. brian: we didn't shoot down a russian yet. steve: no. clearly this calls for a strong

action and president says all options are on the table. ainsley: they are talking and think will coordinate how they react together. he said assad must be accountable and he condemns these attacks. let us know what you think. how the president should respond to this. brian: this is not the only thing on john bolton's desk. north korean talks are supposed to happen in may after the south korean talks. are north korea will follow through what was relayed to us and agree to sit down within on within, our president and kim jong-un? the answer so far is yes. there are talks going on through back channels. there always has been, kim jong-un says, i have an idea, let's have talks in our capital? we come back, let's have it in mongolia is interesting. they could see other things. ainsley: think how far we have come, brian. the north korean dictator wants to sit down with our president, telling others he is willing to

talk about denuclearizing his country. steve: that's right. that was the precondition if you want to sit down with the president of the united states you have to be willing to do that. now apparently through the back channels. apparently mike pompeo the outgoing cia district tore are teams leading it. where will it be? details unknown. let's talk a little bit about this. at the conclusion of last week, president ordered up to 4,000 national guardsman to patrol our southern border. we know now a little more about it. apparently not armed per se, not law enforcement, but will assist border agents down there. we had the governor of texas with us a little while ago. he is excited the national guard will join. >> said something, even though the national guard will not be going down there to perform law enforcement activities, they can't interact with the migrants, they can go up in the helicopters, so border patrol

don't have to be used to do that. they can be on the ground to make the arrest, to figure out who can come in and who can't. brian: it is important guys crossing, people crossing, they don't want conflict. when they know there is a fence and border patrol they will not penetrate, because they don't want a firefight. it doesn't work for anybody. steve: also the president over the weekend ended catch-and-release. we were talking to ron vitello, the acting deputy commissioner of the u.s. border patrol. he said it will take 45 days for that to go into effect. we have a sound is bite from him what is going on, governor greg abbott from texas. regarding the national guard stopping a the deadly flow of drugs into this country. >> hard narcotics are up. assaults on agents are up. we need to reduce the activity level at the border. consequences are very important. >> people just don't happen to come into the united states. they get here by the drug cart tells and by the coyotes that

bring them across. every time we increase forces on the ground there has been a decrease of the cartel activity, of the coyote activity because they realize they will be losing money. part of our job, put the cartels and coyotes out of business and it will make the border a far more secure place. steve: attorney general jeff sessions ordered federal prosecutor to have a zero tolerance policy going forward. if you cross in the united states, historically over the last decade or two, it becomes an immigration thing. but instead, by virtue of jumping the border that is a misdemeanor punishable by six months in jail. so if people trying to come into the country realize hey, they will not do catch an release you might wind up in prison for half a year. that will make some people think twice. brian: so we revamp the whole system, workers coming here, work visas, people working and

get to go back. that is the wild west literally. people are saying president trump is trying to get his base going. he is not trying to get his base going. he ran on bolstering up the border and he just signed an omnibus bill that much to his surprise had nothing to do with bolstering the border, not to the degree he wanted. that is why he is doing it. no master political plan. it is what he talked about all the time. steve: if congress will not help him he will do what he can do like with the former president, with his pen and his phone. smartphone tweeting. brian: when you talk about helping, jillian is always a big help. jillian: always, constantly. brian: you are looking to help. jillian: have a stocks news alert. warrant me to get to that? brian: sure. jillian: governor rick scott officially throwing his hat into the ring for the u.s. senate. according to the ap the republican will make announcement live on facebook at 10:00 a.m. eastern. he will take on three-term

of wisconsin last week has the state's republican governor sounding alarm. positive scott walker warning potentially a blue wave, big government, special interests gladded wisconsin with distorted facts and information. next they will target me and undo our bold reforms. we need to keep moving. #wisconsin forward, make sure a #blue wave of outside special interest money doesn't take us backward. on heels of a liberal judge, rebecca dalets wisconsin supreme court election. first time a liberal candidate won a race for the open seat on the court since 1995. what is going on in wisconsin? let's talk to the governor. scott walker joins us right now from madison. governor, good morning to you. >> great to be with you. brian: you're just warning alf blue wave. you're not saying yes, a done deal republicans are dead. you're saying hey if we're not careful it will be a problem? >> right. this is a true wake-up call.

there is different between a wake-up call than a panic call. panic is got no record, no agenda to run on. in this case we do. the warning, if we don't do this, don't wake up to what we saw last tuesday in wisconsin and across the nation, there could be a blue wave out there. if you listen to our state, particularly democrats running for the governor in the state, their rhetoric is not increasingly liberal but fuld with anger and rhetoric towards me and republicans in general. i've been saying the best way to counter that through optimism rand organization. we've been recruiting people this week yet again to go to scott walker.com to join our cause out there. we have great story to tell. we can't assume our friends and neighbors know about it. steve: what is the democrats message, some of them if elected to the house make sure donald trump is impeached. david axelrod came out himself with a tweet said that is a bad

strategy but the republicans actually have good to run on. that is this great big tax cut? >> that's right. you look at the house, congressional level it is all about impeachment. i don't think people want to go through that they need to get out to tell the story. president, congress, big win for people in wisconsin. typical family, mom and dad work, two kids at home would save $208. that isn't certainly crumbs and people in the state don't want all our reforms pushed back at a time when i ran or governor eight years ago, the unemployment rate in the state was 9.3%. it is below 2.3%. lowest it has ever been in the history of the state that is it one of many reforms out there. the problem if democrats get into place they're so liberal, they're so aggressive, they would repeal those things. we would see re-establishment of all the problems before 10 and that is sort of thing people

need to wake up to. steve: nancy pelosi made it clear if she is speaker of the house again they would do what they could to undo the tax cuts. we've been talking, governor, how the president ordered up 4,000 national guardsmen to our southern border. you're ready to take part if called upon, right? >> absolutely. i was just talking to my a d.j. utant general. i completely support about him. you hear the left, it has never happened before. aid years ago president obama did it. george w. bush did it, president george herbert walker bush did it, over a century ago in 1916 wisconsin national guard was on the border six months before they were called up to be part of the 32nd with the state of michigan, the great red arrow brigade. that is part of our history. we protoke our shores and our

border. i applaud the president stepping up to take on illegal drugs and human trafficking and illegal firearms and all the problems we see see on the southern border. steve: we put up the tweet with that image. a great lesson in history. i understand you have taken heat from some in your state on the political left saying you have to be out of your mind if you have to send somebody down there. >> one of our congressman from a very liberal part of the state claimed the president was politicizing asked me not to be a part of politicizing the national guard. the irony that is exactly what he is doing. look at past history, not just back and forth a century ago when proud tradition of wisconsin's national guard was on the border before we went off to world war i to be one of the grade leaders. red arrows, they pierced through enemy lines, one of the first to do that since then, obama, bush, and bush, each of them because of drugs and problems on the southern border called up the national guard. there is proud tradition in this

country doing that, when that. we've seen people crossing the border. many coming around the world that want to do us harm through terrorist organizations they harbor. we've seen drugs and horrible stories of human trafficking that needs to stop. i would take it a step further. i suggest is the president should put permanent training facilities along the border. what a great way to save money. train people at the military, at same time you help guard the border. steve: let's see what happens. governor scott walker from the great state of wisconsin. thanks for joining us live. >> thank you. steve: what do you think about that. of email us at facebook or tweet us. loretta lynch gets grilled over her handling of hillary clinton's e-mail scandal. >> we know that you had asked him to call the clinton probe a matter, not an investigation. what did you mean when you said let's call it a matter, not an investigation? steve: you will want to hear her answer. michelle malkin has a reaction next. is sarah palin interested in

another run for the white house. what she just revealed on this monday, "fox & friends."

♪ >> the clinton campaign at the time was using all kind of

euphemism, security review, matters, things like that for what was going on. we were getting to a place were the attorney general and i would have to testify and talk publicly bit and i want to know was she going to authorize us that to confirm that we had an investigation. yes, but don't call it that, but call it a matter. why would i do that? she said just call it a matter? steve: interesting stuff. you remember that sound bite. michelle malkin host of michelle malkin investigates on crtv joins us. >> good morning, everyone. steve: we all remember when mr. comey said loretta lynch asked him not to talk about hillary clinton's investigation but hillary clinton's matter. lester holt interviewed here over the weekend for "nbc nightly news." here he is is pressing her on that. watch this. >> i heard about that testimony and my first response was, what, you know, what is the issue here? you know, i remember specifically talking with him as we talked about sensitive things

on a number of occasions this was a very sensitive investigation as everyone knew. and the issue when he and i sat down at that time i think was early in the fall of 2015 was whether or not we were ready as a department to confirm an investigation going on. when we typically do not confirm or deny investigations into anything with rare exceptions. we had a full and open discussion about it and concerns were not raised. brian: no concerns were raised. i don't trust her explanations anything but cogent. what is your take? >> yeah. a lot of euphemisms, a whole lot of nothing there, a lot of filibustering but finally i hope, guys, we're going to get the truth about the tarmac tryst. i have to salute judicial watch for the foia lawsuits that are dislodging a lot of that information. i think the most important part of the 29 pageses that they have obtained is that the fbi at the

time was far more interested in covering up and figuring out who the leaker and whistle-blower was than they were about the actual matter itself. brian: but, michelle, between, mccabe, comey, lynch, they contribute each other. they're finally coming together. why is she speaking out two weeks before comey's book out? two weeks after mccabe gets fired? should be right before the ig report? why does she feel she has to get her story out? >> yeah. well i think a lot of it is that pr coordination and making sure that they have narrative parallelism i suppose, but a lot of it is because the heat is on them because of independent watchdogs and real media that are digging into this and the fact is that the, they tried to cover it up initially when the foia request was put for any of the information regarding the meeting they denied they had any

documents at all. as usual with the fbi foot-draggers who are far more adept covering things up than actually doing their jobs they have tried to suppress the truth but they're not going to succeed. ainsley: who due believe? who do you trust? >> who do i trust? i trust the people who are willing to be the watchdogs over the watchdogs and i think that in the end, look, it was comey himself is said, well, that meeting was the capper, right? he called it the capper on the decision, ultimately of course they let hillary clinton off and that, that of course is what rubs the american people the wrong way, that there was still no accountability. steve: let's hope the inspector general is able to get to the bottom of that. his report should come out within a couple weeks. maybe this next month. meanwhile i know you're familiar with "diamond & silk." they're on, social media stars. they have been told, michelle,

and this is something is near and dear to your heart, that they are unsafe for the community on facebook and so they have essentially demonetized them. facebook now says, yeah we'll get back to them figure out what is going on here. nonetheless until they went public that they were able to say, hey look, they're after us because we're conservatives. >> yes. that's right. and diamond and silk are latest in a long line of successful and articulate and popular conservatives who have been stifled on social media. i was one of the first to have to encounter this, one of my videos criticizing islamic radicals was yanked off of youtube. other pop culture criticism -- brian: why? >> because it told the truth in an unvarnished way and only after i went public, just like "diamond & silk" did did they

finally cop to it. this is a problem that will be erupting on capitol hill especially this week as mark zuckerberg faces the music. brian: yes. >> it is not just about the privacy issues, the data mining, the lack of transparency but it is also about whether or not these giants in silicon valley are truly abiding by their edict. it is part of the communications decency act. they are supposed to run a quote, neutral public forum in order to continue to enjoy all of the liability releases that they enjoy as a result of all the money they have showered on capitol hill to be exempt from all these regulations. like i said, it is not just diamond and silk. this is why, this is why i operate an independent blog, independent of all those cold forums. this is why i am with crtv which created an independent broadcast channel. and i think that the more that

we expose the political bias of these giants the better because they pretend, and it is a pretense of neutrality that is the ultimate problem here. steve: it is going to be a hot seat for mark zuckerberg up on capitol hill this week. michelle, thank you very much for joining us. ainsley: thanks, michelle. >> you bet, take care. ainsley: jillian has headlines for us. jillian: good good monday mornig this morning. doj now appointing u.s. attorney john lausch to speed up republican demands for documents. he will handle material for the fisa abuse and hillary clinton scandals. she joined us earlier to discuss the impact she he will have. >> important we get the redactions right and that takes time. it is important for the president and congress believes we have someone with experienced

litigator and done document productions and can walk us through this. jillian: doj turning another 3600 pages this morning. former alaska governor sarah pail lane has no regrets about her white house run. >> i would do it again in a heartbeat and pushed back and gotten more truth out there but heck yeah. jillian: palin speculating on the life, liberty and levin, john mccain that he picked her for as his running mate in 2008 for political and practical reasons. sean hannity will have a response on his show after jimmy kimmel psych being to end their feud. apologized for his attacks but remains unapologetic for his tweets about donald trump. >> about this and that.
