>> neil: all right. you're looking live at san diego, california. the attorney general, jeff sessions and ice duty director thomas homan are about to have a joint news conference. this as members of the caravan continue to seek entry in the united states. a fraction of whom will get asylum treatment. a report shows illegal immigration is up more than 230% from a year ago. that has folks worried. welcome, everybody. i'm neil cavuto. this is "your world." we don't me the details exactly of what the attorney general outlined. we know that a lot of people are almost calling for his head including devin nunes who wants

to get him out of office. at least while he's dealing with the russia probe. that's a separate issue. first, trace gallagher for what we can expect from this. trace? >> hi, neil. during his news conference in san diego, we expect the attorney general to expound on some comments he made yesterday in arizona where he said president trump is irate about what is happening at the border, referring in part to what you mentioned, the caravan of central american migrants that showed up last week. the attorney general says even without the border wall, there's things the administration can do to crack down on illegal immigration. the a.g. says he will send an additional 18 judges to the border and 35 prosecutors to get the immigration court system moving much master. jeff sessions also reportedly says that the department of homeland security will now refer anyone who crosses the border illegally to his office for

prosecution. the a.g. says the doj will take up as many cases as possible. it's notable that sessions in san diego considering his doj has been at war with california with sanctuary city policies. this is the first time that jeff sessions is speaking in public since house intel committee devin nunes told "fox and friends" yesterday that sessions should be held in contempt for not complying with a subpoena to turn over documents related to the russia investigation. neil? >> neil: i'm sure that might come up if there's an opportunity for questions. we shall see. now we have multiple primaries going on in four key states. the most closely scrutinized will be in west virginia. 14 hours until the polls open there. now the president is getting involved.

president trump urging one candidate to be rejected. what do you have, peter? >> neil, the president's opinion is very important here. he won west virginia by 42 points. i am whispering because the person he's saying not to vote for is having a press conference in a small room. it's dan blankenship. he said to the great people of west virginia, we have together a really great chance to keep making a big difference. the problem is, don blankenship can't win the general election in your state. no way. remember alabama? that anti-blankenship message came as a surprise to blankenship. he said he was in touch with the white house political advisers about next steps if he won here. >> i went to them personally and talked to them along the path of this campaign to make sure we

knew what we were doing and answer any questions. i don't know if he doesn't listen to the political advisers that i was directed to talk to but they assured me the president was neutral. >> this has been about which candidate is the most trump-like. now two claim to have his support. congressman evan jenkins is elated. >> we're excited that president trump gave us a shout out this morning. we feel really good. >> attorney general patrick morrisey trying to do something to diminish don blankenship. he's calling his probation office tore say he has not filed a financial disclosure. >> my campaign will be informing his probation officer in nevada about this issue to determine if this refusal to comply with federal law violates the terms of his supervised release. >> and because we interrupted the press conference in this

small room, i'll ask you. your opponent, attorney general morrisey is having to have you arrested or disqualified. what do you think about that? >> well, he's an attorney that doesn't know what he's doing. >> are you worried? did you take to your probation officer? >> i did. he said it's a civil matter and he doesn't deal with misdemeanors let alone civil matters. >> there you have it. neil? >> neil: thanks, peter. i'm curious. there were those that said that he would be entertaining a third party run as a possibility and disputes as to whether he can there. any sense if he means that? maybe we lost our connection with peter. as that happens, you can hand that seat and keep it in democrats hands, joe manchin. that would most likely win and get re-elected. larry that is out there. what do you think of that

possibility, professor? >> that he would run as an independent? >> neil: yes. >> we can always run as a write-in candidate. most states have a sore loser law. you can't run in a primary and lose and turn around and run as an independent. >> neil: they do. they do have such a law. but obviously the write-in effect alone because he's a fairly popular fellow, numbers still ticking up. what do you make of how that could halter this race? >> if he runs as a write in, he's very wealthy and spending freely in this primary. no doubt he would spend freely as a write-in candidate. i don't think he's goal would be to win. it would probably be to take down the republican candidate, the nominee, whether it's jenkins or morrisey. we'll have to see. but look, he's -- let me tell

you what the republican leadership says. the republican leadership in west virginia and nationally says that he would be a disaster. he would be like roy moore in alabama. they would lose a seat they believe they could otherwise win, though i don't think senator joe manchin is a pushover. you certainly need a strong republican if you're going to win a no election. blankenship, my god, he's been in federal prison about a year ago for his connections to that terrible mining disaster that killed more than two dozen west virginia miners. he does have residency in nevada. there's dispute about that he's clearly got a palace out there. it's a very unusual situation. yet, why is he drawing so much support? because he is, as he said, the most trumpian of the three candidates. president trump tried to deal with that today.

he did it in the right way and on election eve. that's when you should do something like that. that's going to be all the headlines tonight and tomorrow morning. so he said i don't care who you nominate among the other two candidates, just don't nominate don blankenship. that ought to work. we'll see about the fall and whether he runs as a write-in. who knows. >> neil: i'm wondering whatever you think about blankenship in the background and prison and et cetera, did the party itself, the republican party establishment, mitch mcconnell on down, mishandle this? in that they would almost guarantee that his ire and his rage here and make him a more popular figure as a result with, you could argue, some core trump supporters? >> that's possible. i'm sure in retrospect they would do some things differently. describes all of us in life. but nonetheless, you can't really fault national leaders whether it's mitch mcconnell on

donald trump or anybody else for trying to nominate the candidates in their party that they believe they have the best chance in november. this is all about winning after all. >> neil: i agree fully with you. i'm wondering if by drawing a tension the way they did to him, that they actually heightened his profile. yes. you saw mr. blankenship go after senate majority leader mitch mcconnell in a pretty outrageous way. that is -- there's no justifying what he did or his description of elaine chao, the transportation secretary who is married to mitch mcconnell. those sorts of things are disgusting and should be rejected by everyone. >> how do you think he's going to do today? >> he's obviously going to do better than anybody thought a few weeks ago. i think president trump's tweet, given his strong support in west virginia, not just in the general electorate, but he has

over 90%, some say 95% among those that will vote in the republican primary. there's a small number that will vote in that primary because not that many people in west virginia are registered republicans. there are tens of thousands of democrats registered democrats that now regularly vote republican. the problem is they can't vote in the republican primary. only a handful of independents plus the registered republicans can vote. >> thanks, larry. good seeing you. this is one of the many issues we'll follow on fox business. coverage at 8:00 p.m. eastern time. we'll have foreign market also. they're watching it closely on how america could change in november, maybe not. we're on it at 8:00 p.m. as long as it takes. your money, your life, your politics. the president is saying he's

>> neil: all right. attorney general jeff sessions is at the border right now. he is talking about ways to crack down on inroads that have been by illegals. let's listen. >> thank you to tom he -- tom holman. you've done an outstanding job leading ice and the point person for the progress in leading months. we're going to miss you as you go on to new endeavors. so today, we're here to send amosis single to the world that we're not going to let the country be overwhelmed. people are not going to caravan or otherwise stampede our border. we need legality and integrity in our immigration system. that's why the department of homeland security is now referring 100% of illegal

southwest border crossings to the department of justice for prosecution. the department of justice will take up these cases. i have put in place a zero tolerance policy for illegal entry on our southwest border. if you cross the border unlawfully, then we will prosecute you. it's that simple. if you smuggle illegal aliens across our border, we will prosecute you. if you're smuggling a child, we will prosecute you. that child may be separated from you as required by law. if you make false statements to an immigration officer or file a fraud lend asylum claim, that is a felony. if you help others do so, that's a felony also. you're going to the jail. so if you're going to come to

this country, come here legally, don't come here illegally. in order to carry out these important policies, i have sent 35 prosecutors to the southwest border and moved 18 judges to the border. these are supervisory immigration judges that don't have existing case loads and will be able to function full time on moving these cases. that will be about a 50% increase in the number of immigration judges that will be handling asylum claims. these actions are necessary. they are made even more necessary by this massive increases in illegal crossings in recent months. this february saw a 55% increase in apprehensions over february

last year. this march saw a triple number from last march and april saw a triple number from last april. those are the first months of the trump administration that we saw dramatic reductions. the trends are clear, the trends must end. 11 million people are here already illegally. that's more than the population of portugal or georgia. this situation, of course, is many years in the making. for decades, the american people have been pleading with their elected representatives for a lawful system of immigration that served the national interests. a system that we can all as a need be proud of. that is not too much to ask. the american people are right and just and decent to ask for this. they are right to want a safe, security border and a government

that know whose is here and who isn't. donald trump ran for office on that idea. i believe that this is a big reason why he won. he is on the fire about this. this entire government knows how strongly he feels about it. the american people have a right to expect that the laws, their representatives voted for, will be carried out. failure to enforce our duly enacted laws would be an affront to the american people and a threat to our system of government and the rule of law. >> neil: we're going to continue to monitor this. jeff sessions is at the border right now with the acting ice director, thomas homan making it very clear that given some of the incursions of illegalses in the united states, something has to be done. he says it's time to build the wall. no doubt when the q&a comes up,

there will be questions about devin nunes to hold him in contempt of congress for failing to hand over classified documents on the russia investigation, a rare moment when someone within the same party has gone after the attorney general for not doing enough to help with an ongoing investigation itself. we don't know if he will answer questions on that matter or anything besides the wall issues. we'll be waiting for that ahead of that. we're going to try to get a read of this of what is at stake here. lisa is a middle east analyst looking at this and separate reports that the president will make an announcement on iran tomorrow. we're told right now that he leans, although that could change, toward nixing the deal and not just fixing the deal. if that is the case, then what?

>> you're looking at a president that has president been shy communicating the fact that this deal is an awful deal. that's not the way this president works. we have john kerry, at the very best is trying to undermine the policy set forth by the current administration. at the very worst, something else at play. with regards to donald trump, what we don't know is whether he will nix or fix this deal. what we do know he will use leverage in any way possible to get something out of the iranians at this moment and piggyback on the sentiments of others. you had macron, angela merkel come to the white house. they expressed the fact that the deal is not working. in addition that we should keep the deal in place, it's not working. >> neil: i think you're right. they have acknowledged that and frustrated with it, but they think to rip it up would be a bad idea. we don't know what the president can do. he will surprise you.

expectations can change. if he were to rip it up, people are excusing that for oil prices to go high, but on the belief this will lead to discord in the middle east. you think it will? >> i don't think it will lead to discourse in the middle east. we have a lot of uncertainty. whether he nixs it or fixes it. we will have to have a discussion about sanctions and human rights abuses in iran. we have to have a discussion -- all of these uncomfortable topics that were never brought up to begin with. look at the comparison here between the obama administration and the trump administration. you have the trump administration, for example, in what they're trying to do with north korea. they're taking a look at reality to try to come up with an outcome. what the obama administration did, they started with an outcome and what they did is manipulate reality to get to that outcome to get the deal. in manipulating that reality, they side-stepped the fact that iran is in number 1 state sponsor of terrorism, the fact

that they have hands in syria and in lebanon and in yemen -- >> neil: i don't think they ignored that. you're right to say that. but they begrudgingly signed on to it and were aware of the problems. but do you think by nixing this and starting from scratch, especially when iran got all money they wanted, that they'll be compelled to change? >> no. they have learned to work around the loop hole of sanctions and the pressure of the international community, including israel. netanyahu can give a great presentation of the facts, but when you have the european union and many democrats putting the pressure on trump, it's difficult to use that leverage to get iran to change. does iran want to stay in the international community with regards to trade, just having that good normalized relations?

doesn't look like they do when they're still flexing muscles. we had western hostages -- >> neil: lisa, i'm sorry. we're coming to a break. more on that, more on sessions at the border. more after this. insurance that won't replace the full value of your new car? you're better off throwing your money right into the harbor. i'm gonna regret that. with new car replacement, if your brand new car gets totaled, liberty mutual will pay the entire value plus depreciation. liberty stands with you. liberty mutual insurance.

benson and harf. they said they will argue but not hit each other. congratulations. >> thank you. >> neil: the president cannot let off the witch hunt thing. guy, we'll begin with you. it's an unending run at him for things that have nothing to do with collusion. when you heard those that have been scrutinized and questioned by authorities around mueller, you do have to wonder. do you? >> i certainly share the frustration that it's unending. it's been a year now. i understand there's a lot of things to explore, but i suspect people across the aisle would like to see a conclusion as soon as possible. as for the witch hunt, because that's the terms the president uses, you'd think if that's what he believes, he wouldn't want to sit down and talk to mueller because as we heard in the interview with caputo, they

asked a lot of pointed questions and they knew the answers to them. they were lying in wait for some sort of trip-up. if that's the intel that the president is getting from caputo and from what he's being told from his lawyer, if he believes it's a witch hunt truly, i don't see the incentive for saying great, let's have an open one-on-one conversation. it's a recipe for disaster. >> neil: the argument is against doing that, not talking to him. he could be subpoenaed to testify. i don't know what goes and what doesn't go with the president of the united states or if this could get kicked up to the supreme court forcing someone's hand. what do you make of that? >> a fight over a subpoena that goes through the supreme court would be really nasty. it would be public and probably be around the mid terps. so i actually don't think the president's team wants to go that route.

if you look at the questions -- >> neil: that's assuming he's subpoenaed. >> exactly. so if you look at the questions that came out last week that seems the president's team put together based on conversations with the special counsel's office, a lot of those were focused on collusion and russia and obstruction of justice. so i think the special counsel is looking at a lot of issues. they may not have asked might bel caputo -- michael caputo about them. think have to determine if they want to fight this to the mat. it's hard to tell when you have rudy guliani being clear he doesn't think the president should talk to mueller. >> neil: we'll watch and be listening president benson and harf tonight. 6:00 to 8:00 . if anybody can lose it, it's

>> the department of justice has written him a letter. the request he's made is one that the intelligence community and department of justice feels is not grantable. we've explained that we would be willing to talk to him about it before, the details of which i couldn't discuss. >> neil: that was jeff sessions responding to this threat to hold on from the house chairman of intelligence committee, devin nunes in contempt of congress for not handing over classified materials concerning the russian investigation. sessions says he and his colleagues at the justice department have decided it's too sensitive and now is not the time to do it. and emily campanyo has more.

with the regality of what the attorney general said, being at the border, we have to toughen it up there and legally building a wall and legally building up guards and men and all of that. at the same time, he's fighting many in his own party on the russia thing. talk about getting it on all sides, right? >> yeah, feels like his emotional resources are stretched thin. it's worth noting here, as we talks about law enforcement, he's bolstering opportunity to handle a prosecution policy. he's adding more supervisory judges down there. so that stuck as a very important development. >> what legally can the administration do about this? if they're stymied on the wall, they got $1.6 billion in financing and talking about legally obligated to process all

of these that came in the caravan, seek asylum status, where do the rest go in the meantime? if they are left in the united states with the court date to reason sometimes years off, they never return. >> that's one of the challenges here. they remain in that process. as sessions said earlier, it is unfortunate that as he said, if you have a child with you, you will be prosecuted. families will not remain together. it's the brutal reality of these people trying to come into the country illegal ly that become prosecuted and embroiled -- >> neil: how is that different, emily? did we not have that in place before that families were broken up, not broken up? what is different about the tact he's take something. >> nothing in the law has changed. it's the enforcement that has changed.

it's a commitment to 100% enforcement. that's lost in the battle over this that we're seeing in the public. no new laws have passed in terms of illegally entering the united states or those that enter with additional felonies behind them. no laws have changed. the commitment to enforcement has. >> neil: meantime, the president used the caravan as an incentive to beef up the security along the wall, maybe build the wall on the border. did it move any needles, you think? >> ultimately that remains to be seen. we'll see what the response is to his report. i think the needle moves no matter what with every single development and it's up to whether it mushrooms if this enforcement plays out. >> neil: thanks, emily. a lot of breaking news at the same time and throwing that to

you at the same time. thanks, emily. meantime, it's pretty much what everyone is talking about. john mccain reflecting on his life as he battles brain cancer and remembering opportunities he won and lost in 2008. he has great admiration for fellow named joe lieberman. wait till you find out how much admiratio admiration, what he was so close to doing that he didn't do with senator lieberman after this.

and just tis are the natural rights of all. >> neil: an excerpt from john mccain's latest book late by john mccain himself. it's caused hackles on both sides of the political fence. it's gotten some conservatives very upset, liberals very perplexed. obviously it's doing its job in true to form for john mccain. with me now, senator joe lieberman, a good friend of john mccain. in fact, you recently visited him, right, senator? >> i did. i was there a week ago friday. at that point, he was at the mayo clinic in scottsdale. he was okay. we had a good conversation. i talked to him. really told old jokes. but we laughed at each other. a little known fact about mccain, if you mentioned the name henny youngman, which is

not known much anymore, he'll give you a dozen quick henny youngman one-liners. anyway, thank god he was okay then. the thing he said he wanted to get out of the hospital. following monday, he did. he's back at the family place outside sedona. hopefully he's getting better every day. >> neil: for those that don't know, he's battling a nasty brain tumor with great courage. never easy what side of the political fence you're on. what has caused a dust-up in this recollection and his book, his musing back over his own life. he admit as lot of mistakes he made and it's a very humbling journey through his raucous 81 plus years on this planet. among them, his 28 selection when he was the party's nominee

for picking sarah palin. he said the better recall would have been you. he said it was a reachover. party consultants said maybe given your pro choice views and your association with the other party would have been a bad move. what did you think of that? . >> in 2008 when john mccain said he wanted to vet me, i said, are you kidding me? he said no, i'm serious. i said, you know, i was re-elected as an independent but maybe i have to remind you, i'm a democrat still. he said that's the point. he felt at that moment when we were already getting frozen into rigid partisanship in a lot of things that should have been done were not being done, he would make a big statement by having a bipartisan ticket, says a lot about him i was surprised

when he wrote what he did. >> he did approach you? i remember the overtures. did you kick it around? >> i said look, i honestly don't see how you can do this. if you want to vet me -- he put me through the process of being investigated. my background -- >> neil: you had already been vetted. >> yeah. several times. once before. so it was serious. in the end, he said his consultants convinced him it was not a good idea and he would divide the republican party. that would also have an effect on him. i understood completely -- >> neil: did he get back to you and say sorry, joe, it's not going to work. >> yeah, he did. he said i thought you were doing something so unusual it was beyond what was possible. but he said i wish we could have

done it but i can't do it. it was also built on our friendship. we knew each other. our friendship. we had some differences of opinion, but on foreign policy, defense policy, almost 100% agreement. we traveled the world together and got to know each other really well. >> neil: did he ask you to change your position on abortion? >> no. >> neil: change your position on anything? >> no. i went through this in 2000. this shows what an unusual character. there were positions on things like school choice, for instance. where it was very different from vice president gore. the answer that i gave is the one that haven't candidates always given, which is they will be true to what they believe is right. on the other hand, there's only one president.

you have to support what the president wants. if it becomes intolerable, presumably you should leave the vice presidency. that would take a lot. >> neil: ultimately he selected sarah palin, the new alaska governor at the time. did he share that with you that she would be his choice and what he made of that choice? >> believe it or not, not a lot. when i get to sit down and read the book, i'll probably learn more about all of that. >> neil: when you met with him, did he say that would be a big part of the book? >> no. but i did get to meet sarah palin for the first time at the republican convention in 2008. i worked with her on foreign policy matters and was involved somewhat in preparation for the debate that she had with joe biden. so i mean, i got to know her and like her truthfully. >> neil: it's weird how life goes full circle with joe biden

you. joe biden visited john mccain as well. so it just reminded me of a time, there was a friendliness over what comes through. clear is that whether john mccain admits this or not, you could argue the selection of sarah palin ignited this sort of populous approach in the republican party in particular that might have laid the ground work for donald trump. >> maybe. i mean, it took a lot of steps in between. so i know john is really a gentleman a civilized person. he's grateful for all the effort that sarah palin gave during 2008. i don't think he wants to say anything negative about her. >> neil: just confirming what we had known. it's got to hurt her. >> maybe. probably. to say that he wish he had chosen somebody else. but it was never an easy call.

as i say, he took me on a ride i never expected. i never expected to run for vice president. to be considered twice -- >> neil: very unusual. >> is america a great country or what? >> neil: and also, we're getting word that the senator does not want president trump at his funeral. what do you think of that? >> i've heard that. i don't know whether that is true. >> neil: when you met with him -- i don't want you to divulge -- did you talk much? >> not at all. >> neil: about president trump? >> oh, a little bit. but nothing about the funeral. nothing about the funeral at all. i hope to god -- >> neil: this relationship you have seems so bitter and angry. is it that way -- when you say i don't want to invite him to my funeral, that's pretty severe. >> that rumor, which i think it is, sounded more personal -- >> neil: you don't know if it's

true? >> i don't know. it sounded more personal than john mccain has been in his conversations with me about president trump. he will disagree that the things that the president has done. i don't feel that kind of personal hatred there at all. >> neil: how do you think he would feel about the president dropping the deal with iran and that could come tomorrow? >> my guess is he would be generally supportive of that. he felt -- i know john mccain felt the original iran nuclear deal was a bad deal for us, that we gave away too much and ended economic pressure on them, gave them $100 billion to spend to support terrorism and aggression in the middle east and we got from it a pause in their nuclear program. not the ability to fully inspect places. >> neil: so you would concur with that. >> totally. i was a critic of the iran nuclear deal when it was signed. i've been encouraged by

president trump's statements about it. it's a bad deal. a mistake for the u.s. i'm hopeful tomorrow that he will withdraw the united states. he has the authority not to slap sanctions back on immediately or he could do it selectively. he could sanction in the bank of iran that would really hurt iran. let's look at these two countries. everybody is worried about the sky falling. we're the strongist economy in the world. iran is a tiny economy and it's on a dive. they need the agreement more than we do. in the president pulls out, the iranians will be brought back. >> neil: we shall see. thank you. >> good to be with you. th me ♪ ♪ let's fly, let's fly away ♪ ♪ just say the words ♪ and we'll beat the birds down to acapulco bay ♪ ♪ it's perfect for a flying honeymoon they say ♪

message. just ask warren buffet. he's made a pretty good fortune sticking to it, even as he has happily been sticking it to himself. isn't that rich? good night.
