3:02 am
bit. all of a sudden it happens to have been a day we're going to have a competition. and he has the trophy. abby: what is the next competition, by the way? peter: it's not out there. ed: i know, i've been working on it. abby: stay tuned. good morning to all of you, happy sunday morning. peter: well, you know, if another day, another presidential tweet about whether or not there was surveillance on the trump campaign. president trump yesterday putting out this tweet, and it's setting the stage for a continuing showdown about investigating of the investigators. he said if the pbi or doj -- fbi or doj was infiltrating a campaign for the benefit of other campaign, that is a really big deal. peter: ed, you know, this comes on the heels of a lot of pressure from the white house, from others to say what does the doj, fbi know.
3:03 am
ed: remember, this really kicked into high gear when we had devin nuñes on committee a few sundays ago, and he said we want this information about an intelligence source that had been helpful to the u.s. government that may have been in contact with the trump campaign, and they're trying to figure out did that person basically infiltrate the campaign and, basically, was spying, surveilling the campaign. this is very interesting because the justice department has been pushing back and saying we cannot reveal the identity of this person, we can't get into more information, yet there's been leak after leak to "the washington post" and "the new york times" all but revealing who this person is. who's doing the leaking? the fbi and justice department officials who are trying to spin their -- abby: well, many of them are saying they've never leaked from the very beginning, and we're beginning to get reports that more of that is accurate. how to you put a spy on someone's campaign? what evidence do you need to use? i guess they can put it in as an
3:04 am
intelligence investigation versus a criminal investigation? if it's intelligence, then you can do whatever you want? no rules apply? peter: you think there's influence from a foreign government. so the name is out there of this source, his name is stephane helper, he's an academic, he's been a resource for a long time. he was involved in a 1980s spying scandal involving reagan officials and jimmy carter. this guy's been working with the cia for a long time. ed: we know who he is. peter: yes -- ed: and yet the democrats are say, well, if devin nuñes reveals his name, that could be illegal. peter: you're exactly right. the fbi says call him an agent, an inform minute, a spy, an asset, take your pick. but it looked like therapy potentially trying to entrap the trump campaign to prove a theory. how far did the surveillance go on carter page, on papadopoulos. we don't know that.
3:05 am
these are questions we have to get answers to, and to your question, what triggeredded it. what was the justification? abby: per usual, we've got a republican saying what is the legality, and the democrats saying if you're asking for the doj to release this -- mark warner tweeted about it as well. do we have that? he says it would be at best irresponsible, but as worst, potentially illegal for the purpose of undermining the ongoing investigation into russian interference in our election. completely different sides on this. there's no middle ground, if there ever is. ed: and it is important to protect sources and methods, people giving information to the u.s. government. peter: of course. ed: is it deafen nunez revealing the source or is it the fact that fbi and justice department officials have leaked to the new york times and washington post their version of events what happened during the trump campaign that has revealed this source, number one.
3:06 am
and number two, go back to some of the former obama officials like james clapper who was the director of national intelligence, and after donald trump as the newly-elect president in march of 2017 went on that tweet storm and said identify just found out that -- i've just found out that trump tower may have been wiretapped, all of that, james clapper went on "meet the press" and claimed one of this happened. watch. >> there was no such wiretap activity mounted against the president, the president-elect at the time or as a candidate or against his campaign. the focus here as it was with the intelligence community is not on the campaign per se, but what the russians were doing to try to ingratiate themselves into the campaign or influence or level it. if there was someone that was observing that sort of thing, that's a good thing. ed: so last year he's saying, wait a second, none of this happened. there was no surveillance of the
3:07 am
trump campaign. now more facts come out because of pressure from devin nuñes, and that same manages james clap, is out there saying, well, if there was surveillance, that was a good thing. because we're trying to figure out whether the russians infiltrated the trump campaign. they are trying to cover their tracks. abby: this is also someone who referred to president trump as an agent for the russians i. used to be people in these leadership roles, they used to be apolitical, right? nonpartisan. here we've seen time and time again across the board people that have left the jobs or have been fired having very personal feelings and opinions about the current president. you look back at things that have happened from the beginning until now and still so many questions remain. peter: we're also learning more details. a lot of this that we're learning from the interactions he tried to have with the trump campaign is that surveillance on trump started earlier than james
3:08 am
comey admitted. as we know, he paid for people to fly out. there was a turkish woman that flirted with papadopoulos. how far did they go, i would use the word entrap or identify ways they could get intelligence information even without a crime being proven. i don't know. ed: we have just learned a small percentage of what's going to eventually come out. abby: this i.g. report is going to be quite a bombshell. ed: we're hearing middle of this week. peter: well, you know, we had the unfortunate -- abby: the shooting in santa fe. yeah, it happened just a few days ago, and heartbreaking. ten people were killed, ten injured. and as we've seen all too often, these school shootings take place, but obama's education secretary, former secretary, has an idea because the country's now continuing to find ways, talk about ways that we can stop this from happening again. well, they have aned idea to boycott schools -- ed: yeah, this is arne duncan -- abby: until the gun laws
3:09 am
changed. the between says this is brilliant and tragically necessary. what if no children went to school until gun laws changed? my family is all in we can do this at scale. parents, will you please join us? peter: so the idea is if they don't get their way and take away guns or do something they deem as reasonable, no kids go to school? abby: yeah. and for how long? peter: how long? congress works at breakneck speed usually -- abby: well, he's asking parents to follow suit. i'm not sure how many parents are going to think that's the most brilliant idea. ed: friends@foxnews.com, how do you weigh this against the second amendment rights we have in this country. peter: we're going to have bill bennett, former education secretary as well, we'll ask him about that. also, a ton more details on our first topic. abby: there's a lot of news. speaking of that shooting, we now know the name of all ten

3:16 am
poll numbers are on the rise, and these groups the last thing they want to see is they want to see him win again in 2020. so they're going to put out information trying to embarrass the president, trying to drop those poll numbers down and his popularity down, and that's all this is about. it's just about the negative attention that they're trying to draw on the president of the united states. pete: brandon, are they counting on the fact that by this time next year laws will still be the same, that ultimately they will be able to get granted the kind of asylum status that they want, that children not be separated from parents? are they hoping that things don't change? >> they are. again, if you look at it, the push that there is right now on congress the president did his job. in 2017 we saw historic drops, and he did that single handedly with nobody else's help. but what he expected was he expected congress to step in and take the necessary action that would have closed all of the loopholes that allow these
3:17 am
people that seek asylum to get granted immunity into the united states and then never show up to their court appearances. you know, it's interesting that they say that they bring these people up here to obey the laws, but yet when they get into the united states, they fail to obey the laws, fail to show up to their court hearings and the reason is because they to not have a legitimate asylum claim are. they're playing on the loopholes that the laws allow them to do right now. a. abby: yeah. brandon, what did you make of the media bias, the president had a round table with mayors from california talking about sanctuary cities, and at one moment he was responding not about illegal immigrants, but about ms-13 gang members. the media were criticizing him for that. for those who don't know, talk to us about ms-13. are they animals in your opinion? >> they're worse than animals, in my opinion. animals do not treat other
3:18 am
animals the way ms-13 treats other human beings. to see the president come out and give an actual explanation of what he was talking about, we saw tweets that were being taken down because they realized that they were caught red-handed for is once again attacking in this president for doing nothing wrong. in fact, for pointing out to the american public exactly what's happening with these very dangerous and violent gangs. again, how many times do we have to sit back and allow women to get raped, children to get raped, women to get murdered and every other thing that happens in ms-13 before we take a stand and say enough's enough? pete: i mean, brandon, ms-13's motto is kill, rape, control. if that's not the definition of animal behavior, i don't know what is. and ultimately, their hatred blinds them to the nuance that someone can have, an illegal immigrant is not an animal, but an ms-13 member certainly is if
3:19 am
they're doing those types of things. >> they are. again, i believe and my opinion is that ms-13, a lot of those individuals are worse than animals. and to see the president double down on that, i appreciate it. ann. andrew: -- abby: that's what sarah sand isers said. great to have you on. coming up on the show, jimmy kimmel putting the blame on trump and the gop after the santa fe shooting. is this fair? we're going to debate that next. >> congress people, our governors who don't ever do anything because they're fearful that it will hurt them politically. they care more about the support of the nra than they do about children. it senses and automatically adjusts on both sides, for effortless comfort. right now during our semi-annual sale, save up to $700 on sleep number 360 smart beds. ends soon.

the investigation entirely was handed over by rosenstein to mr. mueller when he appointed him. pete: it's all part of the long continuum, no doubt about it. as doj has realized this information's going to get out, they've run to the media and leaked important details. look at these headlines, "the washington post" saying the secret intelligence source who aided mueller probe is at center of latest clash between nuñes and justice department. then in "the new york times," code name crossfire hurricane, the secret origins of the trump investigation. again, more information about this potential source. then "the washington post," bigger than watergate, trump joins push by allies to expose role of an fbi source. so someone's out there leaking information about in this potential individual. and then doj puts out this statement around the same time. they say: we treat disclosures of classified information seriously, and we prosecute those responsible regardless of whether the person is within the intelligence community or a
3:46 am
staff on the hill. are these real concerns, fake concerns, are they spinning? what is happening in doj as it pertains to protecting sources? are they really doing that, or are they trying to cover up for themselves? >> oh, this is just deep state spin. the justice department, again, is the dog being wagged by the mueller special counsel tail. and everything is designed to protect the mueller operation, and the mueller operation is imploding as a result of revelations about how it started with this illicit spying. the idea that they would send this man, try to insert him into the campaign, induce meetings with campaign operatives with payments for supposed work, this was inevitable this was going to come out. and it's the fbi's responsibility, the cia's responsibility if they were involved for this outrageous activity. and, peter, i'd like to compare and contrast the headlines and the spin that "the washington post" and "the new york times"
3:47 am
are happily providing the deep state with what they reported on with nixon's plumbers and such. this makes nixon's seem like an amateur operation. pete: well, absolutely. and do we know -- there's no way we know how far it went, how much halper was paid, did he wear a wire, what triggered them sending him there, was it the cia, doj, f, biing. we mow who this guy is, you don't want to disrupt sources and methods, but if they were to politically spy on another campaign, american people deserve to know about that. >> and the emphasis is on plural, sources and methods. national security letters that were taking up phone records. they had wiretaps. we don't know through the fisa surveillance if carter page, we don't know if there were other fisa warrants. this is why there's got to be a thorough airing of this misconduct, the spying by the

4:03 am
to in july at least, before august, maybe even sooner that may have infiltrated the trump campaign. a professor in the u.k.,ing you can see right there. and now there's been a lot of leaks about this, a lot of mystery, but i think the president is pushing for system facts. pete: that's right. this is a big piece of new news. his name is stephane halper, he's done work in both the u.s. and the u.k., he was in the nixon, ford and reagan administration. he was also involved in a spy scandal in the 1980 as well working with the cia. so he's been at this game for a long time. what we know, what the president is talking about in this tweet is fbi or cia sent in an agent, a source, an asset, an inform minute or you could call him a spy, take your pick, to help try to entrap the trump campaign or find out if there was collusion going on. how far did he go? and these stories that have been in the press, in the new york times and "the washington post," they don't name the name of the

source, but they might as well. they throw out detail after detail, they're saying, well, we're not telling you who it is, but it was a certain person at a certain time who'd worked for a certain number of administrations. what triggeredded these actions? how justified were they? and does this guy have tapes? was he wearing wires? ed: were people in the trump campaign set up? pete: right. were they set up to see if they can get criminal information -- abby: and what evidence did they ultimately have to put a a spy in the campaign. pete: yes. justification. you've got to have a reason! ed: and democrats are saying it may be illegal if devin nuñes and other republicans are pushing for more information. you have senators mark warper and chuck schumer, the democratic leader, saying it might be illegal. well, the fbi and and the justice department with the leaks they've been pours out there, they've all but named this asset, this intelligence person.

same strategy when you were head of education. what do you think? >> >> no, it's a bad idea. maybe if you are at beacon high school and you are doing moments of silence for a mosque, maybe you should keep your kids home. but that's an individual basis. look, what arne duncan is saying is that we can't keep our schools safe. we can keep our schools safe. you had a guest on earlier who talked about both tactical and strategic solutions. i agree. take d.c., washington, d.c. has metal detectors. you know, it's a big city. there is a lot of crime in d.c. there are a lot of guns in d.c. no child in a d.c. public school has ever been shot in a school. they have metal detectors there are other things you can do. but there is another dimension to it and your earliest guest, the former delta force guy mentioned it and it's wise. communications between the adults and students. students need to know, you know, like we have said before, if you see something, say something. these kids tend to know where the problems are and
5:27 am
the kids with problems and the kids who are nursing deep grudges and acting in strange and unpredictable ways. we have got to get them to open up and teachers and adults, parents, of course in the first instance have to pay more attention to it. keeping kids out of school, you know, laying down your brains because of this doesn't make you safe. abby: who knows how long it would take to actually make any change. >> no kidding. ed: mr. secretary, in texas, awful tragedy. could have been a lot worse, perhaps without this retired houston police officer who was armed, trangsd and in the school now as a resource officer to protect children like this. what do you think about -- this is a hot debate as well and some said a more guns to school this they are trained and all of that. other smart people in this country hang on a second if you get people retired police officers, know what they're doing, that will keep our kids safe, too. what do you think as former
5:28 am
secretary? >> i tenged to agree with that it's a local decision. people in the schools can help. i have little doubt it didn't help here, i'm sure it did. kept the scale down. so i think that's another one. but that's a tactic. and again we have to look at the larger question. i think it can also be said that so much attention, so much publicity, the face of these guys being shown all the time, you know, it encourages more of it i don't know what you do about that, frankly in a free society with a free press. but i think some restraint. when i had the radio show we didn't mention these people's names. we talked about the facts and events but didn't mention the people's names. that's a small thing. but, look, we have to be able to keep our kids safe. i remember back in d.c., do you remember when they had those two killers in the car roaming around d.c. and virginia and they finally caught them. they tried can sale football game at our kid's high school. i said get every parent out there and we will ring the field and we will stand

pete: welcome back to "fox & friends." a big discussion coming up here, on the eve of the historic opening of the jerusalem embassy, a familiar face on this network was attacked for his religious views. pastor robert jeffress who was selected to lead a prayer at that embassy was criticized by former presidential candidate mitt romney who tweeted this, quote: robert jeffers says you can't be saved by being a jew and, quote, mormonism is a heresy from the pit of hell. he said the same about islam. such a religious bigot should not be giving the prayer that opens the united states embassy in jerusalem. but is that fair or are people of all faiths allowed
5:35 am
to have religious disagreements? we're going to ask a fantastic panel that we put together this morning that includes the senior pastor of first baptist dallas and fox news contributor pastor robert jeffress. we've got muslim scholar and author of in the land of invisible women ahmed. actor and producer george blumenthal who is also a jewish scholar and fox news contributor father jonathan morris himself a catholic priest. a wonderful panel this morning. thank you all for joining us on this sunday. pastor jeffress, let me start with you. the comment was made towards you that you are not effectively tolerant of other religions because you believe in jesus christ. respond back, please. >> well, first of all, those comments aren't attributed to me. many of them were taken out of context. here's the bigger picture. just imagine you are in a burning building and a fireman says follow me there is one way out of this building and you try to go out of the other exit he says no that exit is blocked. there is one way. would you accuse that firemen of being bigoted
5:36 am
because he insisted there is only way to safety? of course not, you would thank him and follow him. when we christians that i have is one way to heaven through faith in jesus christ, we are simply echoing what the founder of jesus said when he said i'm the way, the truth and the life no man comes to the father but by me. people are free to disagree with jesus and millions of them do. what people aren't free to do is call to me and hundreds of millions of christians like me bigots for simply following the sayings of jesus. i had an interesting phone call friday from another prominent mormon in utah, dr. mike kennedy who happens to be running against mitt romney and he called to apologize on behalf of the state of you call for mitt romney's intemperate comments about me. look, we can disagree with people's ideas without engaging in character assassination of those who embrace them. that's how you have a tolerant discussion with people with whom you disagree. pete: of course, that's the definition of religious
5:37 am
liberty. a lot of people fail in this country to have just that. ms. ahmed let me go to you. people see jesus differently is he a prominent prophet the prophet rejection the trinity the god. there are differences between islam and christianity. would you defend pastor jeffress right to say what he said? >> i would say absolutely. pastor jefferrys is consistent with christian belief redemption through salvation through the holy christ. i have not only had the benefit of muslim upbringing but a christian education for over seven years. and we see that even in special places in the muslim world where we revere our fellow christians i just rushed from curingto cerg stan. he is not only not a big, but absolutely true to the christian faith. additionally, the quran
5:38 am
tells us to each is sent law and way and it is not for us to judge them. they have their own book to judge themselves by. so, no, there is no bigotry that i see in his preaching, only a consistency with christian values which i respect as a museum. pete: that's a wonderful perspective. quick follow-up with you before i get to george there are those inside the muslim faith though that would reject his ability to say that and that's part of your intrafaith fight. >> yes. i think you are fighting to the war within islam. between islamism and islam. islamism is supremacist. islamism is bigoted. expompeo of radical islam as a supreme schism, as a totalitarianism. doing that as a muslim, i'm often called a bigot. pete: sure. >> no, pastor jeffress in dallas is speaking as a believing christian. and he is free to do so and i value his faith for that. pete: preach appreciate that george blumenthal your view
5:39 am
as a jewish scholar of this faith discussion we are having? >> i think it's very much based in the american constitution. the first amendment freedom of speech, freedom of conscience guarantees his right to say what which he believes as long as it doesn't impinge upon my rights in my own lifetime growing up in cleveland in the 50's i was called christ killer. i was urinated on and today i'm still involved in the christian world because i really understand how our faiths mesh to bring messianic event. i also think it's very interesting to quote from abraham lincoln's second inaugural address when he talks about the war and he says how can it be both sides pray to the same god for victory? so, what i have seen in the united states is an enormous progress. pete: sure. >> so what pastor jeffress may have said in the past,
5:40 am
out of context regardless, the fact of the matter is we have moved very far over the last couple of decades. pete: talk about a place where faiths mesh, jerusalem being central to that and father jonathan morris you know that as well. differences between evangelical christianity and catholicism. how do you view the statements made by and against pastor jeffress. >> let me begin by saying bigotry comes from a place of hatred. that's what bigotry is. it's hatred for another. expressed in different ways. i know there is no hatred in the heart of pastor jeffress in these statements. i think that's very important to say. yes, but, peter, there are differences in our beliefs. i 100 percent believe in the sacred scripture and that jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. salvation comes through him. that's what i believe. at the same time, i believe that pastor jeffress and i probably defer on some aspects of how how to interpret that for example, there is 108 billion people estimated who have lived, many of them living even
5:41 am
before jesus was born. and how does that mean that they are all going to hell? i would say no. i don't know what pastor jeffress would say. many people who live today, who have never heard the name of jesus, what's their salvation? how does that come about? i would say that god's love and members j and power are so much greater than our limited knowledge and our own ability limitations where we were born, how we were born, to what families we were born, i believe that salvation comes through jesus. at the same time, we should stand with certain humility and say i don't know for sure about any one in particular because god is so creative and so powerful. pete: father john you two disagree because you are catholic. >> and a protestant. we love each other. pete: we have to go quick with each of you on this. ledge just liberty has it improved in this country. the comments made about you can we move past them.
5:42 am
>> i think religious liberty is improving. i think in large part due to our wonderful president donald j. trump who has made religious liberty at the forefront of his agenda. and let me say i appreciate this panel and i appreciate father jonathan. he and i disagree on some things but we are absolutely united in the belief of what peter, the apostle peter who jonathan believes was the first pope said, in acts 4:12 there is salvation under no other name except the name of jesus. and that's what unites father jonathan and i but all of this panel is absolutely gracious and right. pete: ms. ahmed what are people missing about the teaching of the quran on religious liberty? >> to answer your question, i think we are a believing nation. but the freedom to be religious is diminishing not by law by culture. rising people of all faiths. quran is very clear. it's plural his stick. we believe in the torah and
5:43 am
our book and faiths before islam. even though we have the laws and the constitution. the climate against people of faith is diminishing you in the united states. pete: judge, yes or no answer to both you, george, and father john. both jews and catholics have been discriminated against traditionally in this country. have we made progress in the way there is interfaith discussion, george? >> no doubt about it it's unbelievable. it's fantastic. i could not have imagined this in my own lifetime 20 years ago. pete: father john? >> we certainly have made progress. one thing that very progressive we don't use twitter in order to make sweeping statements and i think probably mitt romney ohio really appreciate as a person probably learned that as well. pete: that's right. we have big books over thousands of years with tons of theology, we can't do it in 140 characters. you all did a fantastic job this morning. thank you very much. appreciate your time. >> thank you. pete: you've got it remember the oakland mayor who warned illegal immigrants of an upcoming ice raid? well, president trump says
