>> from north korea to iran. president trump reshapes the world's foreign policies and keeps promises he made to voters. we'll speak with his form campaign foreign policy advisor. leland: and new details of f-22's intercept russian bombers getting too close to comfort off the coast of alaska. elizabeth: and an update on the homes destroyed, and could another eruption be coming? ♪ and happy saturday, thank you so much for joining us on a very busy day. welcome to america's news

headquarters. >> i'm elizabeth prann. leland: i'm leland vittert. and there was a special counsel in the investigation. there's a big push as we find out whether or not president trump will sit down with counsel mueller. hi, ellison. >> yeah, that deadline may 17th is a deadline that essentially the president's outside legal team said they would try and make a decision by that date, the one year anniversary of when special counsel robert mueller was first appointed, and decide whether or not president trump would actually sit down with mueller. in a phone call to fox news, the president's newest attorney, rudy guiliani told fox news that the president's outside legal team is still waiting for information from mueller and right now, it's difficult to

make a decision whether president trump will actually sit down with mueller by that may 17th date. one thing is the meeting with singapore. and it would be to have the singapore summit because too difficult to prepare the president for a probe before then. there are 19 people, including four former trump campaign advisors and guiliani says the president's legal team is waiting to see whether or not a federal judge in virginia dismisses charges against one of those people, former trump campaign advisor paul manafort. it's been an eventful week from the white house, after the return of the north korean prisoners through a rose garden speech, proposals aimed at reducing consumer drug prices and controversy involving members of the president's staff and cabinet. and that the president berated secretary kirstjen nielsen, and

he thought it was a lack of progress. >> i'm not going to get back and forth with you on an internal meeting. however, i can it will you the president and the secretary share the frustration that congress is simply not showing up to work and getting their job done. democrats have got to stop playing games. they've got to stop doing this just because it's a mid-term year. they still have to do their job. >> in a statement, secretary nielsen says the president is rightly frustrated on the loopholes and lack of congressional action when it comes to immigration. there were some reports that nielsen drafted a resignation letter. a spokesman for the department of homeland security says those reports of false. leland: ellison barber from the lawn on the white house. and thank you, liz has more. elizabeth: the iranian government issuing a warning vowing to retaliate if it's not fully compensated for the u.s. withdrawal from the nuclear agreement. the decision to withdraw also

garn erring responses from our european allies and of course, lawmakers here at home. fox's garrett petty joins us with more on the fallout. >> hey, liz. the members of the deal, particularly those in europe are scrambling to keep them together. german chancellor angela merkel says it certainly makes it more difficult, but it's possible if the u.k., france and germany stick together. >> ladies and gentlemen, we will be able to do this only if we move forward as the european union, a country alone in europe cannot make it. we have to work together. >> other european allies are taking more of a defiant stand in the face of the u.s. withdrawal and on friday, according to the ap, france's finance minister says they shouldn't accept the u.s.s a the world's economic policeman, do we want to be baffled to take decisions from the united states while clinging to the hem of

their trousers, and we have our economic interest and we will consider, and continue to do trade with iran. in iran, there are questions whether tehran would choose to stay in the deal. and friday's prayer contained death to americans and burning the american flag and that the europeans would ultimately break their deal and that he does not trust them to keep their word. that's the same criticism coming from some democrats at home by breaking the nuclear deal the u.s. is hurting kreblth credibility around the world when it comes to future agreements including with north korea. the president says it's the opposite and will strengthen their hand in those negotiations. elizabeth: thank you, garrett so much. leland has more. leland: with that we bring in former trump foreign policy advisor, fox news analyst walid phares. with friends like these, you hardly need enemies. >> look, our allies, most of the

european allies who have engaged in the iran deal, they're facing, leland, a big problem. their multinational corporations were running to iran along with the obama administration and linked up with a lot of financial interests. the trump administration changed that because we saw the deal is actually against our national security and the national security of our friends. leland: in fairness, there are u.s. companies who ran towards iran. boeing made a big deal with iran. that didn't change the calculus of the administration, not enough to change their decision. why shouldn't it be different for the brits, the french and germans. >> it shouldn't be different, but the way and influence of these companies with france and germany is much higher. the governments, no. the region has shifted, arab and muslim countries are now facing iran. to inside iran you have strong opposition and you have this process.

the europeans know they don't have much time to deal with iran and they want to save their interest. leland: if the trump administration decides to double down on this, we don't know how significant the sanctions to be put in place. if they do business with united states and iran, you can't have both. it's a pretty simple decision. >> it should be a simple decision between the u.s. and iran. it's more complicated. it's going to be between iran and the u.s. and gulf and many arab countries. that's too many to bear for the europeans. leland: even though, the u.s. market dwarfses the iranian market in any way. >> by far and that's with two leaders came to visit our president are trying to find a solution. maybe you could add to the agreement, but our administration was fast what they can. leland: they definitely did, well, 18 months after the president came into office. so many people are pointing to north korea as proof that more sanctions work. and we just heard today that the

north koreans are going to invite the worldwide media to come watch them blow up tunnels at their nuclear test facility. people will remember, back in the 1990's, the north koreans invited the international media watch them blow up one of their nuclear reactors. we know how that story ended. why should we view this gesture as different? >> because it's coming after the release of the hostages. in addition to the sanctions, what is new with the relationship of how we are pressing-- pressuring north korea is that we have deployed task forces. what is new, our relationships with china is working. china has been putting pressure on north korea. what is new is that south korea and japan and us have been mobilizing together. all of that is producing a retreat by north korea. leland: forgive me, these are almost the identical talking points that we heard from the clinton administration in the '90s about why we should go ahead and believe the north koreans, going to give up their nuclear program. the same thing from the bush

administration and same ideas from the obama administration, it was john bolton who famously said, the north koreans are lying when their lips are moving. where is the proof here? >> maybe we don't have the proof in our hands, our intelligence services need to give us that proof, but it seems that for experts, something is brewing inside north korea that did not exist before. their jails are filled with tens and hundreds of thousands of people. there are social movements inside north korea, probably that's the trigger for why this country is making these concessions. leland: certainly as proof from the video of kim jong-un meeting with secretary pompeo and meeting with the south korean president. things are changing. do you think that for that matter the american medical is skeptical enough of the north koreans? >> many in the media are skeptical because they're skeptical of anything to do with the administration. that's our politics. reality is going to see more and more evidence that north korea is changing not because the dictator is changing, but he's

under pressure and the chinese are add to go that pressure. leland: we have answer seen the message and xi jinping did not come and that's a message sent. and we will have coverage of the north korean talks and the fallout from the president's decision on the iran deal later in the show. congressmen from both sides of the aisle, dan killdee of michigan and then another reaction. fox news sunday, chris wallace sits down to talk with secretary of state mike pompeo will iran and north korea. check your channels for local times and listing and a preview later in our somehow. and tomorrow on media buzz, howard kurtz and his panel will talk about how the media covered the homecoming of those hostages. fascinating to watch the different coverage there. liz. elizabeth: two russian bombers were intercepted by the air

force just 55 miles off the alaskan coast. the nuclear capable russian bombers entered the 200 mile air defense identification zone at the bering sea. the last time the russian bombers flew this coast to the u.s., may of 2017 almost a year to the day. they were intercepted by a pair of f-22 fighter jets. leland: hawaii's governor tweeting out his thanks for a presidential disaster declaration making it easier to get help to repair damage from the volcano currently erupting on the big island. the officials are closely monitoring, and a larger and more dangerous eruption they say is possible. anita vogel with the latest as folks prepare for that possibility. hi, anita. >> hi there, leland. and no question it's a scary time for residents on the big island and this could go on for some time. after more than a week of earthquakes, eruptions and

massive lava flows, now folks there have another concern. officials are warning of more intense explosions that could send huge, six-foot wide boulders, the size of refrigerators shooting into the air as far as half a while away, as well as ash plumes that could go as high as 20 feet and 12 miles from the summit crater. >> an extraordinary time on kilauea volcano. when i came here 27, 8 years ago, i never thought-- i knew it was capable of producing ash eruptions, but never thought that i would see the day and here we are. >> the latest activity from the kilauea volcano began on april 30th when the crater floor began to collapse triggering a series of earthquakes. that pushed lava into underground chambers which have emerged from 15 new vents in the ground. some on major roadways and housing developments. lava how covers more than 117 acres of land.

it also damaged utility poles and destroyed at least 26 homes. hundreds of people are still without power. on friday, president trump approved disaster funding for the state of hawaii allowing for the swiss release of federal funds. thursday was the last day tourists and residents could get their last close-up pictures of the volcano, the state park is now shut down indefinitely. evacuation orders are in place for about 2000 people who live near the volcano and at last count roughly 300 people and pets were in american red cross shelters. and the scary thing is, scientists say lava eruptions and the spewing of toxic gases could really go on for months. they really just don't know. leland, back to you. leland: all right, anita vogel as we watch this across the pacific ocean, and anita, thank you. liz has more. elizabeth: that's right, let's bring in victoria, the senior science editor from national e goe--

geographic, thanks for being here. >> thanks for having me. elizabeth: this could go on, how long is this time line? very unpredictable. >> it's one of the world's most active volcanos. it's been in an eruptive state, and having hundreds of moments of eruptivety. it's how long this could go on is hard to predict. elizabeth: and also the intensity. we've talked about the oozing and it could explode is what experts fear? >> kilauea is not known for eruptive activity. the lava is oozy and runny. it's the type of eruption, it's not like mount st. helen. this is a gentle eruption. they're worried because the lava

lake, if it dips below the level of ground water. cool water meets hot rock and steam can build up and could create more explosive activity. elizabeth: if that happens, can you explain how big the danger zone is that they could predict? there are people who live here and they're told to evaluate and that's expanding by the day. >> the summit is i believe 30 or 40 miles away from the east risk zone where most of the eruptive activity has happened so far. a lot of people moving out of those communities, evacuated from those communities, their main danger is from lava encroaching into the communities. and with the summit eruptions there are communities that could be affected by that and the most worrisome thing with an explosive eruption of that kind, internet large boulders, it's more widespread ash fall. it could create ash plumes that could blanket large parts of the island and could make things unpleasant. elizabeth: when you think of a summit explosion, that would be

the end of the story on see can possibly continue to ooze? when we talk about a climatic ending that's not really the case? >> not at all. the summit explosion could go on, have multiple events over the space of a couple weeks. they're basing a lot of this off the historic event in 1924 when there was actually this kind of steam-powered explosion and they did see activity over an it would have and a half week period. they're seeing warning signs and it's hard to predict. they have seismometers and ideas how land is forming and watching that crater lake fall, they have indications that something like 1924 could happen now. elizabeth: how do you even-- we've talked how unpredictable it is, but you're able to give me a sort of play by play of the possibility of what could happen and we can see on our screen here. how are experts able to try to predict and when you talk about this possibility of a timeline

and this summit explosion, how? what tools? >> usgs founded the volcano observatory in 1912, if you can believe. they've been constantly monitoring it because they know how active and interesting it is. both from scientific aspect, but potential dangers involved. elizabeth: sure. >> they have seismic instruments all over and cameras able to focus in on the summit and see in active and infrared and they can see the lava lake fall and they can measure the volcanic gases, one of the biggest hazards. the lava does release gas and most fumes are not pleasant. elizabeth: fascinating. it can be very, very dangerous, but fascinating to learn more about it. victoria, thank you for joining us. >> absolutely. elizabeth: we'll waits and see. the fight on wildfires

actually one to watch. historically idaho has been a red state. one democratic candidate believes there is a chance to change that. paulette jordan joins us now from boise. nice to have you with us, ma'am, we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me, leland. leland: when we say historically, we mean there hasn't been a democratic governor since 1990. people are eligible for congress who are younger than that. give us a sense, why do you think you have a chance now? >> well, we're seeing a new time, a new age. we have people who are more excited than ever to see a bold new kind of leadership that we offer in my candidacy and i fight for the people. we fight together for our idaho. leland: do you think-- you're talking about the excitement in that idea of a possible blue wave coming. you're not really running though as a conservative democrat. even a moderate democrat. you call yourself a progressive democrat. this is a state that broke hard for president trump. hasn't voted for a republican

since-- or a democrat since lyndon johnson for president. is something changing in idaho or you're trying to get people to change their minds now? >> people are more than about their party. they're about the community. we have a different kind of value system wholly connected to the land and people are ready for trust, they're ready for integrity and they want real leadership and that's what we see in my campaign and candidacy. leland: policy-wise, what's wrong in idaho in your mind that needs fixing? >> well, from education to our health care, we have an expanded access to 62,000 individuals in our states. we have to do better. we are facing dilapidated schools, we are defunding our public education, not supporting our teachers who are now going to other states, our neighboring states like washington and idaho--

excuse me, oregon, we have to do better and we have to provide new leadership that will defend the people and public lands. leland: you're talking about land, you talked about your family, on those lands for centuries. how much of the issues you're talking about have to do with native american issues? >> well, it's clearly stated that when you come down to idaho, when you come to our communities, all the issues, whether it's dealing with our public lands, fighting for our environment, for clean air and water, fighting for education, fighting for health care, those are not just indigenous issues. they're issues for every single idahoan. leland: how much support were you getting nationally, especially from the democratic governor's association and others? do they think this even has a chance to be much less winnable, but a fair fight with whoever wins the republican nomination? >> i think once we win on may 15th, we'll see them come

together. and those libertarian, unaffiliated and we'll see the support at play as we speak so the democratic governor's association will certainly be there. the democratic party, the national level will be there for support. leland: i'll take that to be that they're not there yet? >> oh, well, yes, i know they're watching this race closely. leland: so you're endorsed by cher, that's something we hear at least on twitter. we appreciate you being with us, ma'am. thank you, good luck, and come back and talk to us if you win after may 15th, it will be an interesting race. >> we will be back, leland. leland: thank you. liz. elizabeth: after the break, ahead of kim jong-un's anticipated meeting with president trump. one u.s. official says america and north korea are working toward the same goals. what preparations are being made before the meeting. and tuesday marks another busy day of state primaries for four states. how the president supports industry is impacting voters.

nuclear test grounds. they claim the tunnels will be blown up. officials from russia, china, u.k., and u.s. will be invited. and mike pompeo spoke out after his return from north korea, the most controversial policy trip of the trump administration to date. he's brimming with optimism for the summit to be held june 12th in singapore. >> if north korea takes bold action to quickly denuclearsize, we'd be on par with the south korean friends. >> and pompeo claims the u.s. and north have a shared vision for the future of the entire korean peninsula and are in complete lockstep agreement what they seek to achieve. after a year of fiery rhetoric and jabs graded back and forth between trump officials and the regime, this is a remarkable

turnaround. some experts suggesting the current mood is perhaps though too good to be true. they caution washington and pyongyang, don't really have the same understanding of the concept of denuclearization and they doubt kim really does intend to give up his prized nuclear program, a program initiated by his very own father decades ago. the president's claim was that kim would relinquish all nuclear weapons, fuel and ballistic missiles after the u.s. made any concessions and with this hotly anticipated summit now just a few weeks away, the window for kim to comply is closing quickly. leland: as you know, we've got a long, long way to go. gillian turner on this, thank you. liz. >> a nuclear capable russian bomber was intercepted by u.s. jets off the coast of alaska. this is the first such provocation since last year. general, this caught our

attention not because we saw this almost a year ago to day and almost comes on an anniversary. >> to put this in a strategic time frame. we're coming to big power once again, between united states and russia and united states and china as we learned from the cold war, these are tests of wills. what the russians are doing, penetrating our zone and testing our responses and we get to practice here. the less we make about this in terms of fanfare, the better it is. it's kind of routine, they harass our ships and airplanes, usually where they're forward deployed, mainly to intimidate our allies, but this is going to be a thing that is going to be routine, and we're just going to react normally do it, and try to keep the lid on it and don't give them any more publicity than what they deserve to have. elizabeth: speaking of

publicity, we saw headlines involving iran and israel, two countries where they know a direct war would be ultimately destructive so they obviously try to make it sort of a proxy war which we're seeing in syria. what is iran's end goal in syria? is it the proximity to israel, intimidate them and get closer to them? and how should israel be responding, as they are? >> when iran looks at it, they want strategic depth and all the depth they want is west because that's largely where their adversaries are, the sunnis, and they want a canvass through. and they want to drive the u.s. out of the region and trying to kill us and been successful at that, but we haven't left the region. they see syria as their strategic anchor point because from there they can do so many things. one is israel and two also the arab states. they've been conducting a significant military buildup in

southern syria since they propped up the regime and motivated the rushsians to come and join them and that's been ongoing, and president netanyahu says i've got a red line here. no iranian troops or proxies close to my border. if that happens i'm going to attack them. military infrastructure that may endanger or encoach on israel sovereignty. so solnani, he doesn't report to the guard corps, he reports to the ayatollah, the supreme leader. think of him like a cia and special ops together, all the terrorism goes around the world, he's in charge of it. all the proxies, whatever they're doing, he directs it. he was directed the rocket in golan heights. the israelis responded with a-- not a proportioned attack like

we did over the chemical attack. they took capability from them. they hit most of the iranieye i infrastructure in syria. that's the most since yom kippur war in 1973. he sent a message, there's a red line here and we're not going to tolerate this. elizabeth: and iran, this is the same week we're learning that the u.s. is pulling out of the iran agreement. i'm curious what's the goal here? >> that's a great question. they want to destroy the state of israel for sure. elizabeth: right. >> that's a strategic goal very difficult to attain. what their more immediate operational goal, the iranians know they're going to make for a nuclear weapon sometime and i think it's less likely now that president trump is in power. and they know the country that's going to come first to them when

they develop that nuclear weapon is israel. they want to be right there, at israel with thousands of rockets that they can encroach and fire into tel aviv and jerusalem to discourage the israelis from ever doing that attack. they've got 130,000 rockets in lebanon right now that all can reach tel aviv and jerusalem. they want to do the same kind of infrastructure across the 45 mile border into syria, which would overwhelm the operational system and netanyahu is onto it and he's not going to let it happen. i don't believe it will lead to war with iran because iran does not want to fight a conventional war against israel which they would lose. general jack keane, thank you, it's fascinating. we always like to have you on to give us a grasp what's going on out there. leland: more fallout allegedly said from a white house staffer

made about john mccain. what others think about that. and key in proving in the president's 2016 win, but the keystone state in the primary? >> i've delivered more when you think about it. we have lift millions of americans from welfare to work, from dependence to independents and we'll put new steel into the spine of our country and by the way, it will now be american made steel.

>> in pennsylvania, it is the last weekend before the midterm primary. three republicans remain locked in a bruising fight for the nomination to take on the state's popular democratic governor. with that we bring in our talk

radio panel, radio host rj harris from harrisburg, pa, a friend of the show and noted expert. and tom heartland from portland, oregon. i appreciate both you guys being here. >> nice to be here. leland: rj, pulled out some of the ads and talking points from the republican race in pa. some of the words thrown around, slimeball, deadbeat, phony and those are the nice ones. up there reagan's 11th commandment somehow got forgotten. >> well, it did and i think it's because scott wagner's current state senator had such a sizable lead that paul mango thought he had to do something to really separate himself. now, they argue who went negative first, but i think that there's no question that paul mango's commercials were really just brutal and laura ellsowrth is in the middle of this looking good because she really didn't participate except pointing out the fact that they were at each other's throats.

leland: in the post trump era, does taking the high road matter anymore? >> i don't believe so, in fact, susquahanna polling released a poll on thursday that shows that scott wagner's at 37%, and mango's at 22. laura ellsowrth though went from 2% to 18. so, she had quite a bit of a jump and it's about 22% undecided, but when you look at the negative campaigning that went on, scott wagner still has a pretty commanding lead. leland: tom, what always happens in these primaries, especially with rj is describing there in ohio, is that everybody is beating up on each other on the republican side and you've got governor wolf there, the democratic governor, who is skating through unscathed and protecting his war chest right now. you have to imagine that he's recording every one of these ads of the republicans attacking each other? >> yeah, part of the problem, i think, that the republicans have right now is the tone that's been set from the top, from the trump crime family on down, where, you've got the white

house refusing to walk back a statement by one of their staffers that john mccain is just dying, doesn't matter. it's really tragic the tone that has been established and i think it's because there are no core values any longer associated with the republican party, other than loyalty to the pharmaceutical industry, loyalty to the fossil fuel industry, loyalty to the polluters, no loyalty to the average american. leland: rj wants to get in here on a couple of the talking points. >> go for it. leland: i'll ask you this, rj, the president's coattails in pennsylvania aren't what you think they'd be for a man who turned that state red. >> i think that we're really taking the candidates as they come here in pennsylvania, but, you know, the bottom line is the republican party is not married to all the things that tom talked about. the tax cuts were for the working people. >> they're for billionaires.

>> come on, real? i saw an increase in my paycheck and i'm a working stiff. >> if you were a billionaire you had a he see a real increase. leland: isn't that how-- >> that wasn't for the obama tax cuts, it was the largest tax cut for the middle class in the history of the united states. this was largest tax cut for the billionaires in the history of the united states. >> all obamas ever done is give money away and we working people have to go out and pay for it. the bottom line is you ought to go become a billionaire, that's what the american dream is about. >> the american dream is raise your kids, have a decent job and be in the middle class. >> and, and have the government-- and tom. >> we should be jealous of the rich people and wait for their largest to rain down on us, and it's bizarre and why people are leaving the republican party. leland: that is the-- >> that's not the american dream. leland: that's a look at the republican side of the

primaries, there are four states holding primaries coming up. after the break as the talk panel sticks around we'll take a look as democratic leaders have promised that blue wave to sweep through the country. as the panel returns we'll see if their rhetoric is lining up with what the voters and their leadership there want. whoooo. when it comes to travel, i sweat the details. late checkout... ...down-alternative pillows... ...and of course, price.

>> in case you haven't heard. democratic leaders keep promising or hoping for a blue wave in 2018. with that we're back with our talk radio panel. tom out in oregon and rj in pennsylvania. thanks for sticking around. tom, to you, had lunch yesterday with a very senior democratic fundraiser who told me that they're now thinking this democratic blue wave may be a little bit more like a blue ripple. do you agree with that? >> i think that the democrats face some serious challenges. you've got the coch brothers dropping 400 million in this election and in addition groups like americans for prosperity that they control. the american chamber of commerce intervening in a big way in a number of these cases in a number of races. on left, there are no big money sources, it's mostly crowd

sourced. leland: okay. >> it's a challenge. leland: we've got the money issue, mind you, the fundraiser says he's got more money than he knows what to do with the what's struggling is the message. and listen to conor lamb who said this in pennsylvania. >> i don't support nancy pelosi, the real issues are the ones that affect your lives. leland: what does it say that the people who are winning the special elections are doing it by repudiating the democratic leadership that democrats are doubling down on? >> well, to the best of my knowledge, conor lamb is the only person who said that and he was saying that in response to a whole series of television ads being funded by out of state billionaires that said that, you know, if he got into office he would basically be nancy pelosi's, you know, boy. and he was just rebutting that and you know, to the extent that they're demonizing her, you know, particularly in

conservative areas, this idea that women shouldn't be in politics, women shouldn't be in business, you know, resonates with a lot of republican voters. >> come on. >> so, it's a challenge, he's pushing back, but broadly speaking. leland: hold on, rj, that seems like an awfully big chasm-- >> look how many are voted in as republicans-- >> we don't want women in politics? where do you get this manual? >> i remember the way you went after hillary. >> and three in scattered showers and medicare and you'll have the complete list of democratic things, social security. the democrats have nothing to make this better. give three things that they have said or proposed or done that made life better in america? they're not there, that's why they're going to loose. >> democrats brought us social security, medicare, medicaid and the republicans right now

trying to destroy those. >> how many years ago. >> come on. >> they're talking about a 400 billion cut to medicare. they cut medicare, and cuts money out of social security. >> this is a broken record. you guys bring this out every time, and it's nonsense. >> and republicans hated social security since it was created in 1935. >> give me three things that democrats have done to make america better, what are the three things. leland: tom, 15 seconds. >> what are they proposing. >> social security, medicare, medicaid, decent trade policy. leland: all of which are now bankrupt or going bankrupt. we'll leave it there. gentlemen, appreciate it. and we've heard a little about what the primaries look like and new we have a preview what the ads in the general election will look like. thanks, guys. coming up, liz has more. elizabeth: one american has been held captive in iran for more than a decade and his family feels they may have been forgotten following president trump's withdrawal from the

nuclear agreement. and we'll talk to his daughter. and will the president speak with special counsel robert mueller. ellison is standing by with the latest. >> it's still a big question mark. two outside factors, that north korea, and a case involving a former trump campaign aide. it comes when your insurance company says they'll only pay three-quarters of what it takes to replace it. what are you supposed to do? drive three-quarters of a car? now if you had liberty mutual new car replacement™, you'd get your whole car back. i guess they don't want you driving around on three wheels. smart. with liberty mutual new car replacement™, we'll replace the full value of your car. liberty stands with you™. liberty mutual insurance.

>> a lot going on in washington this saturday. getting ready for a very busy week. i am leland vittert >> i am elizabeth prann. here's with making headlines. as president trump prepares for his high-stakes meeting with north korea's kim jong-un. we will get congressional reactions from both sides of the aisle. >>leland: as the administration malls what sanctions to hit iran with after pulling out of the nuclear deal. we will speak to the daughter of a former fbi agent missing in iran about what she wants president trump to do. >>elizabeth: the - - prepares to break round on its embassy. >>leland: as the president plays golf today, the president's legal team has not said whether or not the president will talk to robert moller. saying they are waiting on more information to make their decision.

ellison barber at the north lawn of the white house. >>reporter: they have not said whether the president will sit down with special counsel moller and not if or when they will make that decision. the president outside legal team have previously said they would try to make a decision on whether that interview would happen by may 17. that's the one year anniversary of one special counsel robert moller was appointed. in a phone call, president trump's attorney rudy giuliani told fox news the legal team is waiting for information from moller and it's difficult to make a decision on whether or not he will sit down at this point. one thing a play is thesummit i northwith north korea in singapore. saying it would be too difficult to prepare the president for a sitdown interview before then. the special counsel's probe has resulted in indictments for 19 people including four former campaign advisors.

giuliani says the president's legal team is waiting to see whether or not a federal judge in virginia dismisses charges against one of those people. former campaign advisor, paul manafort. this coming after the release of three americans held hostage in north korea. the controversies involving staff and members of the president's cabinet. sources tell fox news president trump berated kirstjen nielsen during a cabinet meeting on wednesday. the president reportedly frustrated over what he sees as a lack of progress on the border and a lack of progress curbing illegal immigration. >> does the president have confidence in secretary nielsen? >> as we've said before, if the president no longer has confidence in a cabinet member, he will let you know. >>reporter: there were reports saying secretary nielsen had drafted a letter of resignation. a spokesperson for the department of homeland security say those reports are false.

>>leland: we wait and see if we hear anything from the president. thank you. liz has more. >>elizabeth: president trump's decision to pull the united states at at the iran nuclear agreement is getting mixed reactions to say the least. congressman, thank you for joining us. believe it or not, i think i know what you will say but i want your response on record on what you think of the president's move this week. >> i think it was a mistake to withdraw from the agreement for many reasons. mainly because there's not a strategy. if the president intended to break the deal, i would have disagreed with that but it would have made more sense to go to ourallies , to the other signatories on the jcp a to draft a strategy because now we we are in a position where we have to trap sanctions on iran.

we would actually have to impose sanctions against germany, against france, against the united kingdom. three of our staunchest allies. >>elizabeth: okay, albeit, they are unlikely. they are arguing the deal will survive. angela merkel saying we must stick together. if it does survive, where is the united states role in all of this? >> if it survives that means the u.s. is no longer party to the agreement and the president will be imposing sanctions on any transactions that include iran. in other words, the imposition of the sanctions means we would sanction transactions that uk, german, french companies or governments are making in iran. i think this is a real problem. let's face it, there's a lot of agreement that this was a bad idea. >>elizabeth: so that your argument will be what is the strategy going forward?

what is the suggestion going forward? there are arguments the behavior needs to be current. whether their behavior in iraq and syria and yemen. ballistic missiles. the creation of those weapons. those weren't getting correct because there's no evidence that the iranians were violating the agreement. certainly there's been infractions but going forward, how do you correct that behavior? there were things left out of the initial agreement. you can agree with that. >> in fact, that is like what butt to the jcpoa one last deal. the better approach were to be we're going to take iran on when it comes to their ballistic missile program. when it comes to their involvement and yemen or syria. and actually take the next step. in fact, mr. macron suggested a larger deal that would not only

deal with iran's belligerence but also dealing with serious. >>elizabeth:is in isn't that wh the president is adjusting? we get massive concessions and there's no way to continue with this. if you want more, why not scrap it and start over? nursing that should have been a strategy in place. >> if you want more, we should negotiate a successor agreement that deals with those other elements. but what we've done is taken a giant step backward. first what we have to do is somehow reassemble an alliance to get back to where we were when the jcpoa was drafted and then get to the other issues. this is not a left and right partisan issue. leon panetta and secretary mattis both have said we would have been wise to stay in the agreement. my notion is this, we should have left it as it is and build from there. deal with iran's support of

hezbollah. deal with their incursions into syria and yemen. deal with their ballistic missiles with additional sanctions and additional work among our allies to bring iran along. using the - - as a basis for that is much smarter than throwing it away and having to start all over. meanwhile, allowing iran to potentially pursue a nuclear weapon. that's really dangerous. >>elizabeth: my last question, is day tactic with the president of head of his negotiations with north korea? is there a method? >> i hope there is but i have to give the president credit where it's due. it's the right thing he's going to negotiate with north korea and bring those americans home was a good thing. i hope there's more strategy involved in terms of the path forward with north korea than what we've seen lately. but you know what, he's on the right path and he deserves credit where credit is due. >>elizabeth: hopefully we were recording on that that's the nicest thing you've ever said about our president .

we will take a snapshot and have it forever. thank you congressman for joining us. coming up in our next hour, we will have reaction from republican congressman ted yoho and tomorrow chris wallace will talk to secretary of state mike pompeo about the iran nuclear deal and his trip to north korea. check your local listings for time and channel. that will be an interesting show. >>leland: chris wallace coming up in about - - minutes to preview the interview. - - focuses our attention on other americans held around the world. robert levinson served his country in the fbi and while on a private investigation disappeared in iran more than 10 years ago. his daughter stephanie curry joins us from dallas. appreciate you being with i know under the obama administration you felt like your father was forgotten. and perhaps for lack of a better term, fighting for him

was sacrificed for the yeardeal obama administration wanted to go. have things changed under the trump administration? >> thank you for having me today. my father has been repeatedly left behind by previous administrations. and it has happened over and over again but we feel president trump as the negotiation skills to bring our father home. and secretary pompeo has just shown that bringing americans have been held captive abroad is an important issue to him so we are very hopeful. >>leland: your father's case is interesting because he was abroad on an investigator but not for the u.s. government. the iranians won't even say they have them. a lot of questions about where he was and how and why he was taken on that island off the

coast of iran. give us a sense of how much information you have two pin this on the iranians. >> my family recently met with - - our iranian lawyer. he informed us that he did file my father's case as a missing person's case in iran, the classification was changed to a security case. the case has just installed at that point that was many years ago.we don't see any urgency by iran to resolve my father's case. my father's passport has not been seen in any other country. iran has a moral obligation to provide us information about our father and to bring him home to us. >>leland: what information do you have about what the administration is doing now? have you gotten anything from them to say there's been movement on this by the iranians? >> we speak with government officials on regular basis.

but we have not heard anything on movement, unfortunately.we have to go through a third-party because we don't have the relations with iran. but what we do know is that if the supreme leader says send bob levinson home, he can be home was tomorrow. it's been 11 years to learn. he's been held for 4083 days. i don't understand and my family doesn't understand how this is allowed in modern times that a man can be held with no human rights. >>leland: we haven't heard much from the president about your father's case or the other americans held in iran. the administration focused on those held in with korea. haven't heard much about those held in iran. why do think that is? >> i can't speculate. all i am is a daughter who wants her father home.

he has many grandchildren that have been born since he's been in captivity. my parents 44th wedding anniversary was yesterday and 11 of those years have been spent in captivity. it's just unconscionable to think that this is allowed. we're just a feeling that once our father home. >>leland: the emotion is understandable. your work on behalf of your father and your tireless willingness to come and talk about him i think says a lot about the family you all have. last question for you. as the administration announced they were going to pull out of the iran nuclear deal, was there a pit in the bottom of your stomach that said this will make it harder to bring that home or do you feel like this could bring movement to the case? >> to be honest, there's a pit in my stomach every day along with my brothers and sisters. every day he's not home with us, it's devastating. we'd like to think we are hopeful. secretary pompeo just showed

he's been in office for just a short amount of time in that position. and he has made americans abroad who've been held in captivity, a priority. we are hopeful. i appreciate the sentiment. we will never give up. our father has and we are fighting everything today for him. and we hope on the other end that he is fighting every single day to get home to us. >>leland: suffice to say, a father's love knows no ends and i'm sure he knows the feeling is mutual by you wherever he is. stephanie, we appreciate you coming on. thank you and let us know as things develop. >> thank you very much. >>leland: liz. >>elizabeth: officials say the volcano on hawaii's big island could erupt in the next few days. signs a any large eruption could large massive boulders and could cause major damage. >> the most worrisome thing isn't just ejection of large

boulders is more widespread ash. it could create as plumes that the blanketlarge swaths of the island and make it pretty unpleasant . >>elizabeth: scientist can predict how long these explosions would last but based on the volcano's previous eruption, nearly 100 years ago, it could go on for several weeks. >>leland: the u.s. opens the doors of the new jerusalem embassy on monday with vips like president trump daughter ivanka and jared kushner making the trip over to israel. benjamin hall from our jerusalem bureau with more ahead of the historic opening. >> what a weekend it's been in the middle east overall beginning with president trump's decision to pull out of the iran nuclear deal. soon after that, iran sending rockets into northern israel and hours later israel's taking out all of their military bases in syria.now it's the u.s.

embassy opening in jerusalem. thousands of officers will be deployed to secure the perimeter and protect visiting american officials. ivanka and jared are coming but also steven mnuchin and government officials from the states and congress.president trump tweeted - - [indiscernible]. congratulations to all. he won't be attending the ceremony but he will give a speech by a video link at that ceremony. the opening of the embassy coincides with more than six weeks of protest on the gaza border. tuesday, palestinians mourn what they call the catastrophe of the creation of the jewish state. they have warned on tuesday tens of thousands could burst the border fence into israel on

that day. recognizing jerusalem of the capital of israel has been a campaign pledge for numerous presidents. only president trump has kept that promise. but it is very controversial. the palestinians have walked away from the negotiation table because they claim jerusalem stresses the u.s. support for israel at the moment but nonetheless, the coming week will be very tense 3512 want for sure. benjamin hall on the ground in jerusalem for us. coverage throughout the week. tonight, just as with judge jeanine, 9:00 p.m. eastern. she is in jerusalem ahead of the embassy's official opening there. don't miss it. >>elizabeth: coming up, - - and fellow comrades saying goodbye to aid in iraq war veteran killed in an alleged road rage incident back home in missouri. plus, several states go to the polls. we will break down those top contest and what they may say about the move of the country

some talked about how tasteless and surprising was afterward. kelly sadler, a white house aide mocked senator mccain's brain cancer diagnosis openly at this meeting while discussing mccain's announcement he would not be supporting president trump's nominee gina haspel. sadler, job quote, it doesn't matter. he's dying anyway. mccain has been battling brain cancer at his ranch in arizona for the past five months. sadler called john mccain's daughter, megan, personally to apologize. on friday megan said she was surprised that safford had not been fired. this morning on fox news, white house budget director mick mulvaney said that should not be fired. >> you might say something nasty about me off the air and it doesn't have that much impact that you come on aaron sailfish, that's a problem. this was a private meeting inside the white house. it was a joke. badly considered joke.

>> some are calling for firing, do you think that's right? let's i honestly don't. >> mccain's friends and family have come to his defense. his wife cindy tweeted directly to sadler saying, may i remind you my husband has a family, childrenand grandchildren. joe biden said quote, people have wondered when the decency would hit rock bottom in this administration, it happened yesterday. this staffer is not the exception to the rule, she's the opinion of it.at the press briefing yesterday, sarah sandra said, she would not talk about a leaked internal staff meeting. >>leland: administration officials on the shows tomorrow, we'll see if they get asked about it. >>elizabeth: still ahead, boaters interstate head to the polls in tuesday's primaries. how president trump's message to voters is impacting the midterm races. more u.s. troops could be

holding primary elections including iowa, nebraska oregon and pennsylvania.to help us break down some of the most closely watched races is - - a senior political reporter at rollcall. i want to get through some of the states on the west coast if you will. not really on the west coast. idaho, nebraska and oregon. simply because i want to spend more time on pennsylvania. are there any races you are closely watching in those three states? >> not a whole lot going on except the one in the rafter. a former congressman brad ashford lost in 2016, was trying to win his old seat back. he does have a primary on tuesday. he is likely to win but seeing the anti-incumbent's a it's worth looking at to see if he makes it through. >>elizabeth: obviously, we talked a lot about the rustbelt. now we're talking close to close focusing a lot on pennsylvania. simply because there's been a lot of factors that have changed. first of all, there's a lot of newcomers.

second of all, the lines have been completely redrawn. for someone at home, why does that matter? >> the district actually changed because of the redistricting. the state supreme court throughout the current districts and said it was a partisan gerrymandering that favored republicans so a lot of these districts have been redrawn to what they say is more fair. >>elizabeth: what does that mean? does that mean people who wouldn't have been necessarily had a much weight have more weight now? >> the idea is that all voters will have equal say. if you're a democrat, you will still have the representation. some of these districts under the 's are slightly higher voting percentage for hillary clinton in the 2016 election so they could be more competitive going into 2018. >>elizabeth: looking ahead to tuesday, is there impact after the special election with on

the 18th district, conor lamb beat rick saccone which was a surprising win. he's a young candidate. are there a lot of young newcomers specifically in pennsylvania and what type of impact will that have? >> there's a lot of newcomers all across the country. there's a lot of women candidates especially on the democratic side. because there are so many open seats, a lot of people are retiring. charlie dent for example. people leaving because of #metoo scandals. conor lamb as you mentioned is running at a new seat because of redistricting. he is facing off against an incumbent congressman in the 18th district. >>elizabeth: what are you seeing as far as issues that get brought up? we talked a lot when the blast was in ohio. the presidency, how is he getting woven into these candidacies? >> it's a huge deal.

primaries, republicans running to the right. everyone trying to be president trump's best friend. on the democratic side, depends on where you are running. if you're running in the rustbelt, you are cognizant of the fact that president trump is popular but you try to distance yourself too. in some of these more liberal areas, your hearing a lot more folks were trying to distance themselves from the president and argue they are part of the resistance who will oppose him in congress. >>elizabeth: some of the races are getting really nasty. we certainly hadthe same conversation . i'm curious as to the ads we are seeing in pennsylvania. is it getting quite as downright nitty-gritty as we see in states like ohio? >> i haven't seen anything as nasty as in west virginia or indiana. with those republican primaries last week but it's still early and i think you'll see more of that around the country as things get more contested. >>elizabeth: what do you think will be more surprising at a tuesday if anything at all?

>> i'm looking to see how women candidates do. so far women candidates heavily run the table. will that continue on tuesday. >>elizabeth: thank you so much. we will see. we will have you back and see what happens on tuesday. >>leland: we are learning more this week about russian backed efforts to break into the u.s. election system. senior correspondent eric shaw tells us one of the places affected is pretty far off the beaten path. >>reporter: galesburg, illinois. a typical small-town was in the last presidential election, invaded by the russians.the fbi and the department of homeland security say the state voter registration rolls were hacked by russian intelligence. >> in a sense it's a declaration of war. it's a cyber war. >>reporter: stephen - - the supervisor of the illinois state board of elections say the attack lasted for weeks it was the central part of our democracy. >> being attacked by a foreign

government. i think anybody in the country should be concerned about that. >>reporter: he says hackers struck the vulnerable starting in june 2016. in the heat of the presidential election. at one point, hitting the system five times per second. in some cases, voter names, addresses, the last four digits of social security numbers and other personal voting information for access. up to 76,000 voter registrations were breached with the greatest concentration, 14,121 and the city of galesburg. that, almost half the city's population. galesburg mayor - - takes it in stride. >> the russians would be making a serious mistake if they came here. with hostile intentions. >>reporter: the hackers stumbled on the city's nine voter computer number randomly. the feds traced it back to seven ip addresses in the

netherlands including two groups are linked to russian intelligence. official survey have now employed numerous defenses to guard voter information including downloading daily antivirus protections and monitoring servers. state senator michael hastings chairs the cyber committee and has held hearings on curing the voting system. he is a graduate of west point and was deployed to iraq. he now battles and a very to me that has attacked the state and country. >> the fact that i thought to protect our democracy, i hold a very sacred and will do anything i can to protect it. >>elizabeth: when we come back, the countdown to the royal wedding is on. what to expect as prince harry hits for the chapel. in securing our southern border, why the department of homeland security is calling for more boots on the ground. >> 80 percent of americans would like to see this problem fixed. they want something to be done. they are begging congress to do

it and certainly i think not only does the president have a right to be frustrated, he has a right to be angry. to most people, i look like... ...most people. but on the inside, i feel chronic, widespread pain. fibromyalgia may be invisible to others, but my pain is real. fibromyalgia is thought to be caused by overactive nerves. lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. i'm glad my doctor prescribed lyrica. for some, lyrica delivers effective relief from fibromyalgia pain, and improves function. lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions, suicidal thoughts or actions.

cost-effective way to do this? fixing roads, fixing vehicles. you think we can do that cheaper than deploying the national guard. >> there probably are other ways but on the other hand it gets the national guard training. these are all volunteers. they're getting some benefit out of this as well. >>leland: where does this go from here? at some point, do we end up with a full-time deployment of national guard troops on our border? >> i doubt it. texas has been using the national guard quite effectively on their border below the radar screen if you will. i think over time, especially if we can increase the number of border patrol agents, we should be able to reduce national guard presence works perhaps to change the laws and restrict immigration better than were doing now. >>leland: you end up sort of a full-time presence, can you conceivably have a situation where the national guard is trained to do more of what the border patrol agents do?

>> they can do with the border patrol agents do with time. they have to know spanish, they happen with the law. national guardsmen and airmen could be trained over time to do that. >>leland: you bring up a good point which is firearms. there's a lot of concern with you have a situation when someone's trying to be a soldier gets into a situation with a loaded firearm and is threatened in one way or another and deals with the threat as a soldier and not as a law enforcement officer. >> that's a real threat. soldiers are trained to take out targets. border patrol is a different thing. secretary matus told us recently the national guard that are there are not engage in actual law enforcement duties. that's not a common problem right now. it's a potential one. >>leland: this now brings up the larger political question.

we just had senator jill and brandon put forward a bill that would require all dhs agents to file a report when they stop someone and question them about their citizenship.here is her statement that she issued abou this bill . you can read it on the screen. >> there's a lot to unpack but conceivably, if they have to file a report about every person. you go from needing a few hundred to a few thousand or tens of thousands if the border patrol will be a lot busier with reports than with enforcement. >> we would be making our border patrol agents into clerks essentially.

1000 people every day enter this country illegally. if we had to file a report on everyone plus the ones that were encountered, that's all they would do would be file reports. >>leland: in that case we by not have enough border patrol. >>elizabeth: turning now to the fight against aids. - - a major millions of dollars in aid were devoted to fighting the disease in the developing world.casey stegall takes a closer look at how many people are honoring the former president and his efforts. [applause] >> in 2003 when george w. bush signed the president's emergency action plan for aids relief into law, mr. bush himself, the programs of visionary, had no idea of the full impact it would have. >> once i was convinced there was a pandemic, we put a strategy together to do something about it .

>>reporter: it almost immediately directed a $600 million grant to aids research, treatment and humanitarian missions. much of the relief to hardest hit parts of africa where the disease had already killed 25 million by 2002 and another 30 million were infected . infectious disease experts and life-saving medications started pouring in, giving life and hope to millions who would otherwise been given at that sentence. >> people like you who bet on the future of life of people far away, you are right. you helped make history mr. president. >> the former ugandan minister of health one of the distinguished guests celebrating 15 years of the program and looking toward the next 15. >> you spend now or you spend later. >>reporter: funding for the program may be in jeopardy as

several budgets are slashed. george w. bush penned this op-ed point he writes, saving nearly 12 million lives is proof that it works and i urge our government to fully fund it. what's more, many experts agree, it makes americans safe . >> we have a whole generation of people who like us. we need friends. >>reporter: the number of hiv/aids cases has dropped dramatically through parts of africa. in childhood infections are down by more than half. medical experts warn not to wave the white flag until a cure for the disease is found. in dallas, casey stegall, fox news. >> when we come back, the royal wedding is one week away. the latest on preparation for prince harry and megan markle to walk down the aisle. >> harry, i think when he was a little boy, walking behind his

>> the link between the british people in the royal family is something quite unique. >> that was queen elizabeth when she was still princess elizabeth on the day she

married prince philip. she prepares to watch her grandson married megan markle at windsor castle. first and foremost, what can we expect? who doesn't love a royal wedding? >> we may have fought a war as some folks have pointed out to distance ourselves and not have to care about the wedding. yet, we can't get enough. i was reading earlier that megan markle has been the most google person on earth over the last couple weeks. there's undoubtedly a lot of interest. i think for americans, there's an extra degree of interest because she's american because she's a relatively high profile american. she had a career here as an actress and in movies. for the last 15 years. she's already a known entity.

the last time something like this happened, was three generations ago. >>elizabeth: you talked a little about, we may have fought a war to distance ourselves. i'm curious as to what this does to the relations of the two countries. it's something we can kind of bond about. >> absolutely. if i put my ford affairs analyst hat on for a second, a wedding between the british royal family and an american could not have come at a better time for the monarchy. for britain. this has been a challenging year for the bilateral relationship as well as between the uk and the rest of europe. the brexit vote is something that threw everything into question. this is a fantastic way to at least on the surface level, strengthen the bonds between the u.s. and uk at a time when other diplomatic relationships might be strained.

>>elizabeth: let's look at some of this video. i will admit if i was going. i would hope you bring me back - - that would make my day. i am curious about dollars and cents. i know there's pandemonium here but people are coming from all over the world to see if they can get a spot in mind when they see the parade go by. this will be a big moneymaker for them. >> this wedding is a financial boon for the uk. not just because thousands of tourists from all the world will be coming into the uk. but also because billions of dollars of royal wedding merchandise is going to be sold. that's a huge boom for the national economy. i think critics of the monarchy saying he needs to be modernized, shut down. we should get rid of it.

there's a really strong financial argument to be made for its existence in today's day and age and this highlights that. >>elizabeth: my last question is not only is she popular but this is a young biracial woman. that's also something we would expect from a monarchy. how is that coming into play? >> uk analyst are ringing the bell saying megan markle is single-handedly modernizing the royal family. bringing the monarchy into the 20th century because of the reasons you just mentioned. not only is she an american. she's a commoner. but she's also been married before point she's a little bit older. i think she's 37. alderson prince harry. she's been married before. she's biracial.she's got a black mother and a white father. and she's an actress. a professional woman. this is not someone who's a socialite or something like that. there's a lot of characteristics that really set

her apart from the rest of the royal family and make her a very interesting woman to watch. >>elizabeth: i am excited i get excited about stuff like this. she's beautiful. likable. something other than politics once in a while. i know who's really excited. >> leland. >>elizabeth: he's got the hat. he's got the mugs. >>leland: i have shorts. nobody cares about my shorts. good to know where i stand. we move on to real news. mike pompeo making two trips to north korea laying the groundwork for the president meeting with kim jong-un. secretary pompeo with chris wallace and he comes up next to join us. insurance that won't replace
