♪ >> kennedy: i am dana perino with kimberly guilfoyle kimberly guilfoyle, juan williams, jesse watters and greg gutfeld. it's 5:00 in new york city and this is "the five." president trump has a big decision to make. will the u.s. retaliate against syria. bashar al-assad, accused of using poison gas again on his own people. >> it was an atrocious attack. it was horrible. you don't see things like that as bad as the news is. you don't see those images. we are studying that situation extremely closely.

we are meeting with our military and everybody else. we will be making some major decisions over the next 24 248 hours. we are very concerned when a thing like that can happen. this is about humanity. we are talking about humanity. it can't be allowed to happen. >> dana: the president putting russia and iran on notice, suggesting they may have played a role and could face serious consequences as well. >> you may. he made. if he does, it's going to be very tough. everybody is going to pay a price. he will. everybody well. >> u.s. military action, is it off the table? >> nothing is off the table. >> dana: the attack reportedly killed 40 people, comes a year after the u.s. retaliated for

the last syrian gas massacre. an emergency security council meeting held the united nations this afternoon, greg, people wondering if the united nations put anything into this action. the attack came at the breakdown of talks between assad and the rebels. >> greg: the timing is so weird. president trump says we are pulling out and a chemical attack presents itself which kind of says not yet. they are smart people, smarter than me on this, who believe syria is behind this. tom rogan wrote a piece today. senator mccain. this doesn't make sense to me for two reasons. syria can't hide from retribution. clearly they are, if they are responsible, they will be bombed. it's not like they can run to the mountains. if you want america to leave,

why would you do this? maybe i'm not that bright but why would you do this? aside from that, we are still going to retaliate. the reason why we are going to retaliate is because assad is like o.j. simpson. o.j. didn't get found guilty of his real crimes of killing nicole and ron brady was found guilty of a later charge for armed robbery and kidnapping. the fact is assad has done enough bad stuff that if he didn't do this, so what. >> dana: perhaps assad says the benefit of victory outweighs -- >> jesse: he is on his heels. i don't believe he would do this without russia's knowledge. they are the sponsor and puppet master. trump was handed a mess in syria. that's not my comment. that's obama's national security council spokesman who said that himself the other day. here's why.

one obama was president, there was a big leadership vacuum in the reason. russian came in to fill it. at the beginning of the civil war, the obama administration spent half a billion dollars to train five syrian rebel fighters. it was a waste from the jump. then you have this incredible gas attack where obama drew a redline, didn't respond. putin had to sweep and help president obama save face and organized this group to rid syria of these chemical weapons. people like john kerry and susan rice bragged about bringing all the chemical weapons out of there. president obama himself said it was the crowning achievement of its foreign policy legacy. that's obviously in tatters now. it didn't help sending almost $2 billion in cash to the iranians. right now you have a proxy war, and it's probably tribal. it brings in the great powers, america and russia, but you have the saudis and the iranians going at it because there is a

major natural gas pipeline which obviously, they are trying to reroute it to the european unio european union. russia has this port city that gives its navy access to the mediterranean. they have an air base with about 1,000 personnel. syria allows the iranian navy access to the mediterranean. it looks like our side, the saudis, israelis, our rebels. they are getting desperate. putin is probably heard from that sanctions and his oligarch friends are hurting and energy prices are low and they are trying to test our resolve. i believe you can see president trump seething when he is crossing his arms like that. the last time he did that was the "fire and fury" comment. i think they are going to pay, like he said, steep price. >> dana: every major players there. our western allies. russian, iran, perhaps north korea. we know north korea had been

helping syria before with nuclear material and possibly chemical weapons. also israel. when the attack started happening in syria last night, the united states said it's not us. everybody is saying it's not us. and saudi not complaining that israel took action. >> juan: it was important for people to understand israel decided they could take unilateral action. it's because the united states is there to back them up. in a sense, it is israel acting in a way that would help the united states and allow president trump more time to decide what's appropriate action. i think it's telling that it was a year ago he said assad was not a priority for him and that's when assad did the chemical weapons attack. this time it was his remarks in ohio last week saying it's time to get out of syria. now they act again. it looks like whenever there's a sign from the u.s. government that maybe we are not paying

full attention, assad then sees it as a signal for him to take action. he can do what he wants to do. to me, this is very troubling because it opens the door not only to russia and iran but also islamic state coming back into the picture. it's not, if not islamic state, than al qaeda. don't forget the taliban is right next door. >> dana: kimberly, the thing that is so disgusting about assad is his willingness to attack children. out of these 40 that were killed, many of them were children. children and innocents are dying by lots of other means as well but chemical weapons, is not going to be our redline? >> kimberly: it should be. it should have been a long time ago. this is an opportunity for president trump to show his resolve in his strength, that he will not tolerate these kind of atrocities and the genocide that's been going on there. this guy is just disgusting, it's outrageous, lack of any

kind of morality or humanity to murder children in this way. obviously israel stepped up to the plate. they have the backing of the united states. i think that's a significant strategic partnership that's going to change the course of history in that region which is so fraught with so many problems in terms of the complexities of the region, politically and otherwise. this is going to say a lot about president trump, his presidency, his handle on foreign affairs and national security. he has shown the strength before. it has worked. i think he's going to respond rather quickly in regards to this. >> greg: can i respond to one? when some big bad guy leaves at barney's going to leave a bar, you don't throw something at the guy as he's leaving, you just hope he leaves. what you said was that trump saying that signaled assad there was a lack of attention and therefore he could take his own

action. why wouldn't he just do nothing and let the big guy leave? >> dana: to reemphasize, what happened on friday was that the talks between assad and the rebels broke down. i don't know if there was causation or correlation or whatever, but there was an action in syria that maybe they weren't paying attention of what president trump was saying. >> juan: i think they were paying attention to trump. i think for them, the united states, the big guy walking out of the bar. once you see the big guy at walk away, for assad, it was this is my country. this is what vladimir putin said. assad is the legitimate president of syria. he says to trump you can't talk and act to a legitimately elected president in this way. it's interesting that president trump then said to putin, who is often times, you know, reluctant to criticize,

you are wrong. i was really struck by that. >> dana: i think they must have intel but tell them. they know, russia, 119 million people or something. this is a country that is trying to make some sort of investment in assad and they made a really bad bet in him. but now you have this seething cauldron, as kimberly was saying, the geo-complexities, it makes for john bolton having a big first day at the office, national security advisor. >> jesse: welcome to the job. >> dana: next, former attorney general loretta lynch breaking her silence on that infamous tarmac meeting, what she is saying about that, james comey, and more. next on "the five" ." do you think it's going to surprise your daughter? absolutely. wait, is mom here yet? where's mom? she's in this car. what the heck? whoa. yo, whose car is this?

>> jesse: this is a fox news alert. breaking news her down trump longtime personal attorney michael cohen. the fbi seizing documents. more now from john roberts. >> good afternoon. the fbi raided michael collins business office and also rated his apartment and in a hotel room in which he has been staying. i am told that the fbi took pretty much everything they

could find. in the form of paper or electronic communications. we don't know exactly what this has to do with, though in the course of seizing the documents, could have been then because it wasn't necessarily what they were looking for, documents related to the $130,000 payment michael cohen made in october 2016 to stephanie clifford, a.k.a. stormy daniels, as part of her agreeing to the confidentiality agreement she has been fighting with her attorney michael avenatti to get out of for some time. we have a statement from stephen ryan, who is michael cohen's attorney. the attorney representing the attorney, if you will, said the u.s. attorney's office for the southern district of new york executed a series of search warrants and seized privileged communications between my client michael cohen and his client. ryan was advised that, by federal prosecutors that the new york action was in part due to a referral from the special

counsel robert mueller. that's where we have the time between what's going on here in washington and what happened there in new york. cohen's attorney goes on to complain about the seizure of privileged documents saying it was completely inappropriate and unnecessary. resulted in the unnecessary seizure of protected attorney-client communications between a lawyer and his client. ryan going on to say there was no reason for them to do this because cohen provided thousands of nonprivileged documents to congress and separate depositions under oath. stormy daniels, her attorney couldn't wait to show his glee at this latest development because he and michael cohen have been in a cage match over stormy daniels trying to get out of her nondisclosure agreement. michael avenatti in a statement to fox news saying as i predicted last week, cnn and nbc, mr. cohen has been placed in the cross hairs by mr. trump, set up to take the f. enormous amount of misplaced faith on his shoulders.

i do not believe he has the metal to withstand it. if i'm correct, this could end very, very badly for mr. trump and others. we do not know the substance of what the fbi was looking for. only that i came in part from a referral from the special counsel's office and of course robert mueller has been looking into russia collusion. he's been looking into the financial dealings of paul manafort and rick gates. he has michael flynn on making false statements. he has george papadopoulos on making false statements. it would seem logical to assume, jesse, that somewhere in the course of his investigation, robert mueller came upon some information that he thought that the u.s. attorney's office for the southern district of new york would want to know about. the u.s. attorney's office found it was compelling enough that they sent the fbi told michael cohen's office, home, and hotel room to pick it up. >> jesse: serious developments. thanks a lot. we will update you on this as we learn more.

meanwhile, it gave jim comey a queasy feeling, that's how the former fbi director felt when his former boss obama attorney general loretta lynch pushed him to downplay the clinton email investigation. it was lynch's tarmac meeting with hillary's husband bill that ultimately led comey to go public with news of the probe. >> in a conclusive way, that was the thing that made me think i had to do something separately, protect the integrity of the investigation, fbi and justice department. >> were there of things that contributed to that that you can describe? >> the only other consideration i can talk about in an open setting, at one point the attorney general directed me not to call it an investigation, but instead to call it a "matter," which confused me. >> jesse: lynch contradicts his account in a new book. >> this was a very sensitive investigation.

the issue when we sat down, i think it was early fall 2015, it was whether or not we were ready as a department to confirm an investigation going on. we typically do not confirm or deny investigations into anything. with rare exceptions. >> to the extent he noted that that have bothered implementing did he go to you? >> we had a full and open discussion about it. >> he didn't raise concerns? >> concerns were not raised. >> jesse: kimberly, what do you make about comey not raising concerns directly to his boss? do you think it's because, speaking to his boss, or he was a little bit of a coward. if you are going to say hours later, oh, it concerned me but you never raised it, how to use query it? >> kimberly: i think if you have a concern, you need to raise it right away. promptly. with speed and efficiency to make sure you have the record

set straight and that you have addressed any concerns you have because otherwise you are in the explain game later on. and then it's a problem because you have prior inconsistent statements which can be highly problematic. before the congress, ig, fbi. there is a tremendous amount of exposure here. i believe she is trying to get out ahead of it. this book coming out, all of it to make sure, try to clean up the record. >> jesse: juan come or do you think? >> juan: it is puzzling to me to be honest. i don't understand why jim comey would say that. we all know comey has this book coming out. it's going to be a big deal. i am curious. loretta lynch said she wants to see what comey had to say about why he came out of the last moment and have that long press conference in which he said they were not going to go ahead and file charges against hillary clinton. but here is the horrible things

and the carelessness she displayed in the use of the private email server. she says she didn't understand it. it was a surprising way for the attorney general to be told by the fbi director of his decision. i think she said let's look for the book. let's see how he explains it. it will be very interesting. >> jesse: i think there's going to be a lot of backstabbing among people who used to work for each other. >> dana: i wonder if comey has any of those, kimberly has to remind me of the term but those contemporaries notes, what's it called? memo to file? >> kimberly: he referred to. >> dana: comey says he did that with president trump. i wonder, if he was troubled or concerned via something loretta lynch asked him, if he had a similar memo and if any of us had a chance to interview him, we might actually ask that question. i'm also curious as to why she is doing this now, and then it occurred to me comey has no

natural partisan support anymore, not on the right or left. the clinton people probably dislike him more than the republican people for sure. they want to get out ahead of it to try to basically muddy the waters for comey going into what is going to be a very big to do with his book tour. >> jesse: greg, dana brings up a great point. there's going to be people on the left criticizing him and people on the right. is it going to make him look fair and balanced, do you think? or is he going to look like enemy number one? >> greg: everybody hates him. always goes back to the clintons. wherever you go, there they are. it is that weird horror film. you look around, there they are. behind the bushes. they are like a building trying to clean up after a lousy tenant that left behind a complete mass, the democrats. he called her queasy. they are like two siblings pointing at each other over a

broken window. blame it on the clintons. >> jesse: blame it on the clintons. >> greg: nine times out of ten, you're going to be right. >> kimberly: pin the tail on the clintons. popular game here. >> jesse: a segment on "the five" every day. i had, a victim and a hero of the parkland massacre leaves the hospital and called out officials for failing to prevent the shooting. next. you ok there, kurt? we're about to move. karate helps... relieve some of the house-buying... stress. at least you don't have to worry about homeowners insurance. call geico. geico... helps with... homeowners insurance? been doing it for years. i'm calling geico right now. good idea! get to know geico. and see how easy homeowners and renters insurance can be.

person didn't take part because he had been shot five times as he tried to protect his classmates. anthony was released from the hospital. someone no one had heard from until now. he saved upwards of 20 students. his attorney read a statement from him which criticized the sheriff and others for knowing that the shooter was bad news before the attack but still did nothing. >> both of you failed students, teachers, parents alike on so many levels. i want to ask you today to please end your policy and agreement you will not arrest people committing crimes in our schools. i want all of us to move forward and end the environment that allows people like nikolas cruz to fall through the cracks. you know he was a problem years ago, and you did nothing. >> greg: he was too weak to talk about his statement to a strong. it reminded us of the facts.

tons of calls were made about the shooter over the years, he had emotional and disciplinary issues before coming to stoneman douglas. he was abusive. nontook action. the statement mentions the promise program which allows young criminals to avoid arrest. will this messenger receive the same platform and spotlight that others received? it's a sad reality in the world of cable news. we have to move on from other tragedies away. but anthony cannot move on which is why we should press pause and listen to what he is trying to tell us. he cannot move on. the fact that scott israel can is a disgrace. kimberly, we have heard very little from scott israel. he used to seek the spotlight. now he is under a rock. >> kimberly: now the facts are raining down on him. he cannot escape the truth. trying to blame others, demonized the nra. dana loesch, blamed people at the school, blamed everybody except for accepting

responsibility for choices he could have made that would have prevented this. when you have authorities been called 30 different times to nikolas cruz's house and nobody does anything, what else do you want someone to do in terms of getting involved in trying to do something to prevent future harm and violence and massacre? if you don't learn from the situation, you just focus on guns, you are missing the point. for this individual still have a job, the fact that he has not been suspended and removed from his position to be as astonishing. >> greg: dana, his father called out israel for using his son right after the shooting is a photo opportunity. gave his dad $100. there was something very tacky and crass about this guy. >> dana: it's amazing, it will be interesting once he is strong enough to talk to hear from him about what kind of bravery it took for him to be able to stand in front of that gun and take

the bullets for his students. i'm sure they are looking forward to him getting back to school. he's a remarkable young man, very inspiring. >> greg: juan, he came from venezuela for this. the irony of leaving a place that's known for incredible high crime and he wanted to be a professional soccer player, which isn't going to happen. >> juan: i hope it does happen. i hope he recovers fully. what struck me was i think it is something from the heart of american students. he says i just want to go to school and feel safe. i don't feel safe right now going back to school, is what he said. to me, that struck me as, this is no spin. this is not taking sides. this is a young man saying i think school should be safe and i should feel protected when i go to school. i do think it's about guns. last week, the shooting at youtube, easy access to guns. from his perspective, even if we never settled the gun argument in the country, kids should be

able to feel safe and go to school. he makes a strong, compelling points. the sheriff went to visit him at the hospital. when you hear this, i don't think this guy is just upset that sheriff hasn't paid attention. he is saying this despite that. thank you for the visit but you should have done more. >> greg: exactly. he felt it was a photo op. what should be done with israel? >> jesse: florida department of law enforcement has an open investigation. they will submit their findings to governor rick scott and he can determine whether to fire him or keep him. that should be coming momentarily. there is a great ambush by a local reporter from abc that went and tracked chair of israel down and got in his face pretty aggressively and said do you accept any responsibility? what are you doing? you have to answer to some of this. he weaseled out of it and didn't look like he was in control, sheriff israel. and then he followed him and he was at a political event later

that day. with all the stuff going on in his community, he is out there hobnobbing with politicians and raising money and politicking. a lot of misplaced priorities. the promise program, got to get rid of it. you don't want to arrest a lot of a young black teen urges and high school. that's why the obama administration came in and pushed hard. hurts their ability to get in college and things like that i get that. a campy blanket. this guy, like you said, he was abusing students in school, was suspended, violent. this is a guy who had to of been arrested. it would have triggered the inability for him to purchase a firearm. for cnn to shine a spotlight away from israel and then towards the nra, it does such a disservice to the country. they should be shining a spotlight on things like what marco rubio is doing. we have talked about it. i think it is something like the gun purchase restraining order.

you are balancing the ability to have the second amendment with the at the same time protecting public safety. if someone looks like a not, you have a judge adjudicated. >> juan: judges and social service people. >> jesse: they blew it too. >> juan: i understand you're upset with israel but i'm telling you there are lots of people who have the opportunity to act and didn't. >> jesse: the fbi, the locals. what did israel do? he set up a perimeter outside the school when the shooting was going on. everything tells you you go in and confront the shooter. >> juan: that wasn't israel. >> jesse: his deputies. >> greg: there is a gofundme page. a lot of those, check them out, make sure they are real. his financial support for the family. it has raised $800,000. it is legit if you want to check it out. >> kimberly: used his body as a human shield and saved 20 lives.

it's not just knives, by the way. it's acid. there's a lot of really crazy violent crimes. the murder rate exceeded new york i think. with knives. they also have gun crime even with strict gun control. if you look at the knives, it's similar to our handgun problem. organized gang crime and lousy sentencing. these are the problems. the reason why there are gangs getting arrested. they go in prison for three months and they are out. they are not being sentenced enough. sentence guns and knives the same, go away a long time. that will do it. arm the cops come up please. >> kimberly: dana, what do you make of sadiq khan? he's had his fair share of back-and-forth with president trump, now going after knives. >> dana: i don't think this particular thing has anything to do with president trump. this statement that anyone who

is carrying a knife will be caught, it's insane. it's not going to happen. a lot of people, unless they are going to have a massive drone program with metal detectors flying through the streets of london. it's not going to happen. it avoids a similar thing we talked about, the root cause. why are murderers up? is it gang activity? get to the root cause of it. other big cities have dealt, like new york city has, with major homicide rates that were way too high. it wasn't knives here. it was guns. get after it and figure it out. break up the root cause and you would have to ban knives. >> greg: stop and frisk. it could be bigoted, we have been told. profiling. >> kimberly: jesse, when you compare to the rhetoric we see in this country regarding guns and the focus on the weapon, the instrument, now we see it, the

focus here is knives. again, they are missing the larger point which is why is it happening to begin with? why are people choosing to take this kind of assaultive conduct towards others? >> jesse: i thought it was an "onion" headline when i first read it. i didn't believe it. we joked about this when there was that mall slasher, the isis guy. then some bad guys stabbed some person and you say oh, what are we going to do next, ban knives? everybody laughs on twitter but this is real. this is not a joke. khan is like the de blasio of london. he keeps getting worse for him. it has turned into a joke. if something happens, it's bad. you don't disarm everybody. if you can't have a gun to protect yourself in london, maybe you need a knife. people sometimes protect themselves. what if you are just carrying your knives to the kitchen, to the restaurant, and you work in the kitchen where you work

somewhere. he's going to go in and, people have things sticking out of their pockets? let me see. what have you got? >> dana: a knife carrying permit. >> jesse: what about a butcher butcher? it's crazy. london, they are in a heap of trouble. >> kimberly: also his twitter game is not good. wasn't scary, wasn't fire in fury like president trump. >> jesse: no. sad. >> kimberly: easy onto on to something, juan or is it fraught with problems? >> juan: i am interested because i was listening to greg and thinking imagine if we were watching fred flintstone and barney rubble and they say no more rocks. get those rocks out of your pocket. david and goliath, you keep throwing rocks. we are going to take them away. the reality is, and the thing that really struck me here, there are more murders in london then new york city so far in 2018. that's why the mayor is acting. by the way, you guys are wrong

on stop and search. he, the mayor, is in fact proposing that the police stop and search people for knives. >> jesse: he is better than de blasio. >> greg: then he changed his mind? i think he was originally, years ago. now he has to come around. scala he was against it and then he was for it. >> juan: you want to say this is the equation. that guns and knives and therefore he is to be mocked as if we don't have a problem with guns, which we do. >> greg: we are lectured on guns from brits every day. >> juan: you are not upset over the knives? >> jesse: the reason we have the guns is because of tyrannical governments like great britain threatening the rights of the colonists. >> kimberly: it's true historically. >> juan: my man is a historian historian. >> kimberly: he has his own set of encyclopedias. coming up, the liberal media has officially gone completely

this is par for the course over there. >> juan: wow, that's a surprise to me. let me ask you, dana. if you go to the reality, and the reality is that john dowd was advising the president not to stand for an interview. jay sekulow and ty cobb seemed to be telling him, we have reports today prepare for the possibility of an interview. what do what do you say? >> dana: it is all speculation and hypotheticals. i don't deal in any of it. i deal in reality and what we know. you can spend the hour you have to give on television anyway you want. i do think the democrats have seeded so much policy ground in talking about russia that they have got to figure out a way to pivot. they are in a perfect position this year, the way the politics are and the math, they could win back the house. if they don't start talking about democratic policies of why it would be better to vote for democrats than republicans, they are wasting their time. >> juan: greg, it is like the

wicked witch. the democrats are like, will she come after them? >> greg: if msnbc is fantasy island, chris matthews has to be tattoo. what joy did, it's what i do at the gym. i daydream. what would happen if i win the lottery? you run through your mind to make yourself feel good. she verbalized it which is kind of interesting. could be an interesting segment we all do where we verbalize our daydreams. >> jesse: let's not. [laughter] >> dana: mind is pretty innocent in case you want to know. playing tennis with my dog. >> juan: all right, all right. "one more thing" is up next.
