[applause] >> all right. thanks to rob o'neil. studio audience, i love you, america. historic summit could be getting a new lease on life after a meeting between the u.s. and north korea reignites hopes for peace on the peninsula. good evening i'm mike emmanuel. this is the fox report. the state department confirming that u.s. delegation is meeting with representatives from pyongyang in north korea. the leaders of north and south korea met yesterday after the north's heated rhetoric prompted president trump to withdraw from a planned june 12th summit in singapore. the president now signalling that the meeting could be on track, tweeting quote, our united states team has arrived in north korea to make arrangements for the summit between kim jong-un and myself. i truly believe north korea has brilliant potential and will be a great economic and financial
3:01 pm
nation one day. kim jong-un agrees with me on this. it will happen. republican senator roy blunt reacted to the up and down negotiations this morning, calling the developments unsurprising. >> right out of the north korean play book. we're into three generations of that play book now. act like you want to negotiate. then come up with some outlandish view of what that negotiation means. what was probably surprising to them was the president's agreement initially to meet and then his willingness to say hey, if this is not a serious meeting i don't want to have it. i do think some things need to happen here before we meet. hopefully they will. mike: south korean president says the north is committed to complete denuclearization, but democratic senator cautioning that the regime might see all of this as more of a pr stunt. >> it is a significant concession to north korea to offer a summit. never had an opportunity to meet
3:02 pm
with an american president. it's something they have long wanted to elevate them to an equal to the united states. mike: senior foreign affairs correspondent greg palkot has more from seoul. >> mike, more surprises along the dmz. maybe a breakthrough in the works regarding a possible summit involving president trump and north korean leader kim jong-un. just one day after the north korean leader kim met with south korean president moon jae-in along the dmz, the north side of the border, the state department is now confirming that u.s. and north korean officials are meeting basically at the same location to thrash out issues ahead of the proposed summit. among those reportedly involved, the u.s. ambassador to the philippines, the korean american is a former u.s. ambassador to south korea, a former u.s. nuclear negotiator with the north and on the north korean side, a powerful vice foreign
3:03 pm
minister. she is best known recently for being behind last week's statement dubbing the vice president pence a political dummy which for a moment at least had president trump calling off the talks. for now they could be back on. comments coming on sunday here from south korean president moon probably encouraging. he said in his meeting with the north korean leader, kim said that he is determined to hold the summit with president trump on june 12th, committed to complete denuclearization, with some reservations, though, kim reportedly also said he still has concerns about security assurances he was getting from the united states regarding his regime and the south korean president admitted there are still differences of opinions as to what denuclearization really means. that presumably could be worked out in these talks along the dmz, said to be going on monday and tuesday as well. there's also an advance team in singapore preparing for a possible meeting. busy times in the region.
3:04 pm
mike? mike: greg palkot leading us off from seoul. thank you. let's bring in judith miller pulitzer prize winning author and journalist, and fox news contributor, great to see you. how optimistic are you that this summit will happen on or around june 12th? >>i'm not sure we're not going to have a number of different twists and turns until we get to the 12th. it might even be delayed a little bit but both leaders now seem determined to make this implausible improbable meeting happen. so i think it may happen, but then again, if president trump decides that he's annoyed by something that kim has said, he could very well put it on hold again. i think given that we are in the middle of a psychological warfare game here, the person who goes into that meeting seeming to hold most of the
3:05 pm
cards thinks that he will emerge the victor. and i think that's what we're watching. mike: the new york times has a statement saying basically that the measured response to the cancellation and the extraordinary diplomatic scramble that followed was a strong reminder analysts said that mr. kim not only wants a diplomatic deal with the united states, he may need one. his apparent willingness to continue diplomatic efforts does suggest that mr. kim may be under pressure to satisfy rising expectations in north korea for economic gains and shake off the painful grip of sanctions. your thoughts on that, judy? >> well, i know that's the new york times view. i'm not sure it's mine. i think this might have had a lot to do with china and south korea. especially the south koreans flew into a frenzy when president trump cancelled the meeting, which delighted a lot of hawks on the american end. but president moon jae-in was
3:06 pm
very very embarrassed by it since he was the kind of main stay. he was the promoter of these talks, and he suddenly had egg all over his face because the united states did not even give him a heads-up on the cancellation. so he scrambled. he met with kim jong-un on the border again. and once again, the talks are now on. the summit is on. also china's role in this is very important because china on one hand doesn't want a nuclear north korea, on the other hand, it doesn't want the americans to benefit from any kind of deal. so, you know, i think you have to watch the power dynamics involved here. the united states versus china. america trying to balance its relationship between china and the south koreans and the japanese, who are also very worried about this meeting. i think the danger, many
3:07 pm
american hawks or people who are skeptical of north korea with very good reason because they have violated every agreement they have ever signed are worried that president trump will not be sufficiently prepared for this meeting. this was certainly also marco rubio's concern which he expressed today in interviews. you know, will the president really be up to this? and do the north koreans really want this? which is the question senator rubio was asking. but i think that on balance, if the meeting can happen, it is a good thing. it would definitely be an achievement for president trump as well as mr. kim, of course, but it might lower the tensions that we've seen in the peninsula, lower the rhetoric, and start a dialogue, i don't think you're going to get a grand agreement, and if you did, i would be very skeptical the north koreans would keep it, but this is certainly better than war, which is the past that we've -- which is the path that we seem to be on, and if
3:08 pm
president trump can accomplish this, then i applaud his initiative. mike: delaware democrat senator is expressing concerns about this driving a wedge between the u.s. and our european allies. take a listen to this. >> well, i hope that we will see president trump end up proving himself to be a deal maker, not a deal breaker. but in this instance, i've heard from the ambassadors of our european allies that they are concerned that america first is turning into america alone. mike: judy, your reaction to that? >> well, i think we've seen this more with respect to the iran deal and the unilateral withdrawal from the iran deal. that is what has driven a wedge between the united states and its european allies. and even though the americans are promising -- the trump administration is promising the most severe sanctions ever, it's very hard to see how they will be as severe that the sanctions which brought iran to the table
3:09 pm
were because frankly a lot of the europeans are going to resist these sanctions even though in the end a lot of their largest companies may have to go along. mike: one thing that got a lot of attention is when national security advisor bolton made reference to the libya model. here's senator jeff flake on that issue. okay. well we don't have that, but bottom line, what about that analogy, if you will, or the comparison between the libya model where qaddafi lost power and ultimately lost his life and what we're trying to do in north korea? >> well, it's hardly a promoter of talks, as mr. kim probably doesn't want to give up his 20 to 60 nuclear weapons in exchange for american security guarantees only to wind up dead, like moammar qaddafi, what has to happen here if you are going to get a deal is that the north korean leader must believe that
3:10 pm
an american security guarantee is worth more than his nuclear arsenal. mike: sure. >> that's going to take some doing. i'm not sure anyone can do that, but we don't know very much about this young man, 34 years old, how he reacts, what his motivations are, and what he really wants for his country. he says he wants economic progress, but he also says now that he has a nuclear arsenal, is he really willing to give that up to get economic progress and promise, but what he really wants is survival. mike: sure. >> therefore the libyan analogy was absolutely the wrong thing to say, but it may have been part in john bolton's defense of an effort to play good guy bad guy, he was the designated bad guy. i really don't know but i know it did kind of unsettle the atmosphere for a while. mike: judith miller thank you very much for sharing your perspective with us this evening. >> thank you very much. mike: president trump going on the offensive calling the russia
3:11 pm
investigation a witch hunt. the president tweeting who is going to give back the young and beautiful lives and others that have been devastated and destroyed by the phony russia collusion witch hunt? they journeyed down to washington, d.c. with stars in their eyes and wanting to help our nation. they went back home in tatters and his lead attorney rudy giuliani keeping up the drumbeat of attacks as well. >> the counterintelligence investigation is now over for over a year, and they weren't disclosing it to anybody. immediately that raises questions in my mind why not. i think why not because it clears the president. then you get the comey thing which is a leak of a confidential memo, which is illegal for an fbi official to do, and that becomes the basis for appointing mueller. i'm not saying mueller is illegitimate. i'm saying the basis on which he was appointed is illegitimate.
3:12 pm
>> ellison barber has more. >> the president is ta taking t twitter again. the president's personal attorney rue -- giuliani is still weigh the sit-down between the president and special counsel robert mueller. if he says the president is going to sit down with mueller, giuliani first needs to see fbi documents related an fbi informant. >> the reality is we're not going to sit him down if this is a trap for perjury. and until we're convinced of that, if they don't show us these documents, well, we're just going to have to say no. >> according to a report in the washington post, in 2016, an fbi informant, a retired american professor spent months seeking out a meeting with three trump campaign officials.
3:13 pm
he was reportedly working with the fbi as they investigated russian interference in the 2016 election. the president claims he was a spy, put there for political reasons. department of justice officials briefed lawmakers on thursday in two different classified meetings, both in regard to the informant. democrats say they saw no evidence that the informant was a spy. >> you have a president peddling these falsehoods and you have essentially people putting out propaganda like rudy giuliani to further that fiction. i think it is of a size and scope probably beyond watergate just not the watergate the president is referring to. >> democrats accuse the white house of playing politics with all of this. one of the classified briefings was with a bipartisan group of lawmakers the so called gang of eight. the other was only for a handful of republicans. two white house officials chief of staff john kelly and the white house lawyer who deals with the russia probe emmett flood unexpectedly showed up to
3:14 pm
the briefings. democrats said their presence was highly inappropriate. the white house says that they didn't actually attend the meetings, but they were there at the start and they made brief remarks about the president's desire for openness. mike? mike: ellison barber live on the north lawn, ellison, many thanks. >> you bet. former president george h. w. bush has been hospitalized in maine for low blood pressure and fatigue. a spokesman says he will remain there for a few days in observation. he is awake and alert and not in any discomfort our thoughts and prayers are mr. bush and we wish him a speedy recovery. thousands of bikers revving their engines for rolling thunder as they pay tribute to our veterans and honor the fallen. more on today's ride for freedom. plus the head of a border patrol union looking to set the record straight after slamming president trump's deployment of the national guard to the

3:18 pm
mike: president trump insisting he will not sign an immigration bill without a real border wall. this as the president of the national border patrol union walks back some controversial remarks after he said that the national guards deployment to the southern border was a, quote, colossal waste of resources. we have more from our los angeles bureau. what is he saying now about those comments? >> mike, brandon judd, the president of the national border patrol counsel told fox & friends this morning that statements he made to the l.a. times saying agents quote see no benefit to having guard troops on the border weren't exactly what he meant. >> i was talking about the deployment of our current border patrol resources, and if we were deploying those resources correctly, would we actually need the national guard? nobody praised the president more than i did in my media that
3:19 pm
i know of for the decision to send the national guard. >> now, judd went on in thursday's article to say he was extremely excited about the troop deployment, a sentiments he echoed on fox today; mike? >> he still has some criticism about the way the national guard is being used; right? >> that's right. judd says the current deployment of national guard troops is being handled differently than previous border deployments and the union president said that's led to a poor use of resources. now a national guard troop must be paired with a border patrol agent who has law enforcement powers. >> when we have the national guard there, they have been in our lookout and observation post, they have been in our static positions, they have been in our control room, and what they do is they free up those resources that otherwise have to do those jobs to allow us to go out and patrol the border. >> now, so far more than 1600 national guard troops have deployed to the borders of arizona, california, new mexico, and texas, assisting with over
3:20 pm
4,000 deportations, and they have also turned back more than a thousand people who are trying to penetrate our borders illegally. according to pentagon officials the number of guard troops assisting a the border could swell to 4,000 in the coming months. mike? mike: live from our west coast newsroom, thank you very much. visitors now being turned away from a monument honoring more than a thousand killed in one of the deadliest attacks on u.s. soil. what forced the indefinite closure of the uss arizona memorial at pearl harbor. plus bikers hitting the streets in d.c. honoring our military members who served our country and remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice. how today's ride for freedom made history. ♪ liberty mutual stood with me when this guy got a flat tire in the middle of the night, so he got home safe.

mike: bikers from across the nation in washington this memorial day weekend paying tribute to our veterans and honoring those who died in service. garrett tenney has more from the annual rolling thunder ride for freedom. >> mike, i think you would be hard pressed to find more patriotic crowd of people on memorial day weekend than here on rolling thunder. you have folks from all over the country, veterans gold star families and a whole lot of proud americans. this is no parade though. organizers are quick to say this is a demonstration, and their mission is the same it was 31 years ago when this event started. raise awareness of our soldiers who never came home and are still missing in action.
3:25 pm
>> these men and women have fought for the rights of all of us so that we can live free the way we do, and our government has -- [inaudible] -- and they leave our men and women behind after war. >> when this was started, their goal was to hold a demonstration so loud that law makers couldn't ignore them. a few hundred thousand motorcycles will certainly do that. president trump took notice this morning tweeting in part fantastic to have 400,000 great men and women of rolling thunder in d.c. showing their patriotism. they love our country. they love our flag. they stand for our national anthem. organizers estimate more than a million riders and spectators took part in today's ride for freedom which they are billing as the world's largest single day motorcycle event, and next year just like every year before, they're expecting it will be even bigger. mike? mike: garrett tenney, thank you very much. the uss arizona memorial at pearl harbor now closed indefinitely after vessel operators found cracks on the

3:30 pm
mike: some americans will be staying inside this holiday weekend thanks to subtropical storm alberto. the first named storm of the season is closing in on the gulf coast, with dangerous winds and rain. we have fox team coverage on this. adam clock is in the fox extreme weather center, but we begin with jonathan serrie in pensacola, florida. jonathan? >> hi, mike. the winds are slowly beginning to pick up. we've gotten a few sprinkles, but nothing heavy in terms of rain, not enough to keep people off the beach. in fact, tourists have been out at the beach all day, most of them other than a few hard core surfers are staying out of the water. now, the timing of this storm could not be worse.
3:31 pm
it is coming on memorial day weekend. ordinarily one of the busier days for tourism in this part of florida. a time that these gulf waters would ordinarily be packed with visitors. now, today life guards have put up red flags warning swimmers and waders to stay out of the gulf because of high surf and dangerous rip currents. most tourists are heeding those warnings and staying on the beach. but all we have spoken with say they have no plans to cut their vacation short. >> alberto don't seem too bad so far. i appreciate it. it's kind of cut down on the crowd. [laughter] >> how about you? any concerns for you? >> no concerns yet, no, still loving it. loving every minute. >> when the storm hits, what do you plan to do? >> what are we going to do? go inside i guess maybe? >> maybe eat, have a drink. >> now, the effects of the storm can be felt far from the center, not only in terms of dangerous
3:32 pm
tides but also in terms of rain. this rain coming down in the miami area. the winds in the storm not expected to reach hurricane force, but it has the potential to be a big rain event throughout the entire southeast, causing flash flooding in low-lying areas. you know, mike, back in my local news days, i covered another tropical storm called alberto that struck the florida panhandle, not far from where i'm standing in 1994. it was relatively uneventful as it came ashore, and then that storm parked itself over the state of georgia, rained for days, and caused historic flooding from macon down to the coast. mike? mike: but to be clear, jonathan, so far you got a workday out at the beach; right? [laughter] >> don't tell anyone. keep it a secret. mike: just between us. jonathan serrie in pensacola, many thanks. [laughter] for more on the path of the storm, we go to meteorologist
3:33 pm
adam clock in the fox extreme weather center. >> there are plenty of areas where it is not as nice as far as the beach goes. there's your center of circulation behind me. rain is stretching up the florida, the state of florida, not so much along the panhandle but now running into portions of north georgia in the carolinas, all spots where they have seen a bunch of rain already, and there's only going to be more come. winds currently, and that's right at the center of circulation up to 50 miles-an-hour. this is moving to the north northwest at 12 miles-an-hour, which means by tomorrow, around lunchtime, that's when we expect landfall to eventually hit. but again, it is everything outside of that area where we're seeing all that rain. so no surprise here, we actually still have the flood watches and warnings down in portions of south florida where they have seen some of the heavy rain, but now we're seeing additional watches being put in place in places of north georgia, areas into the carolinas because of the moisture that's being pumped up with it, it is going to be region wide where we're seeing at least a couple inches of rain. here's your rainfall predictions. anything where you're seeing these greens and dark greens
3:34 pm
getting up to an inch or two. start to see some of these colors in the yellow, 4 or 5 inches. then areas right along the coast where we eventually expect landfall in the panama city beach area, stretching to pensacola, those are spots where you could see at least isolated up to a foot but more widespread anywhere from 7 to 10 inches of rain in some of those locations. here's our hour by hour forecast. you notice the center of circulation, it will spin a bit. time stamp in the corner. continue to see the rounds of showers moving up. i'm taking you to noon on monday. then we're going to be either right at landfall or close to it at this point. that's when the winds are going to be the strongest. that's when the surf is going to be the worst. that is when some of the rain is going to be heaviest at least right in this particular area. it does slow down quite a bit once it makes landfall, begins to break apart. this storm system is going to work its way up portions of alabama, working its way over to mississippi, but still rain all off to the east of this, throughout the entire memorial day holiday. the rain is going to be sticking with us. and then again, the rip currents absolutely everywhere, here
3:35 pm
along the gulf coast. we're worried about high rip currents, some wave heights have been reported as much as 8 feet. unfortunately, mike, this one at least taking us through the weekend and early into next week as you start to think about the midwest as it continues to track to the north. mike: those communities in the path will be praying that alberto doesn't stop and hover over any one community; right, adam? >> right. as of right now that's not projected. none of the models are suggesting that, but it could happen when it hits landfall. mike: thanks a lot. alberto is the start of what could be a rough hurricane season. scientists from the national oceanic atmospheric administration believe it is highly likely we will have anywhere between 10 and 16 hurricanes which could mean trouble for those still recovering from last season. phil keating has more. >> our preparations are well underway to ensure we're ready for the 2018 hurricane season and yours should be too. >> it looks to be an active hurricane season coming up. at least that's what scientists at the national oceanic
3:36 pm
atmospheric administration are predicting, noaa forecasters saying the season which starts june 1st, will have anywhere from 10 to 16 named storms. of those, 5 to 9 could become hurricanes, and of those 1 to 4 could be a major storm, category 3, 4, or 5, which is why now is the time to prepare. >> while we cannot prevent the storms themselves, we can take action to better prepare for such events and their impacts on our communities. >> the forecast cannot tell residents when and where a hurricane may hit, which is why officials are asking people to be ready both supply wise and financially before the storm season. especially those still recovering from hurricanes harvey, irma and maria, which took a toll out of houston, florida, and puerto rico last year. last week's hurricane preparedness conference, fema administrator long explaining that getting the money back does take time as all expenses are vetted to avoid fraud.
3:37 pm
>> recovery unfortunately is not something that occurs overnight. recovery process is a very long deliberate process. >> forecasters say there remains a chance that later this summer, an el nino climate pattern could develop which would help break up developing storms out in the atlantic. meanwhile throughout the florida keys, seems like this persists with views of paradise still not cleaned up from hurricane irma. in marathon, florida, phil keating, fox news. mike: thank you. the cemetery that serves as the final resting place for thousands of our nation's heroes could soon run out of room. when it will happen and how officials are preparing for that fateful day. plus military dogs serve a critical role in combat helping to protect our servicemembers from some of the most violent environments. what goes into our training? our leland vittert has an inside look from quantico. how do you win at business? stay at laquinta.

3:40 pm
the digital divide is splitting this country. we have parents who are trying to get their kids off of too much social media and computers, and then we have parents who would only hope their children have access. middle school is a really key transition point, right. the stakes start changing. students begin to really start thinking about their futures. what i like about verizon's approach is that it's not limited to just giving kids new tools, it's really about empowering educators to teach in different ways, and exposing kids to more active forms of learning. giving technology is not a total solution. teaching technology, now that is.
3:41 pm
mike: arlington national cemetery the final resting place for more than 400,000 members of the armed services and other dignitaries, but with 30 burials each day, the cemetery is running out of space. the executive director of army national military cemetery says something needs to change. >> so arlington national cemetery was established in 1864, 624 acres, we have right now a little over 100,000 burial spaces. we are an active cemetery. we have an average of 30 burials a day every day. so we perform over 7,000 burials a year for our veterans and patriots. without any type of change in
3:42 pm
eligibility and expansion, by 2041, we're going to be out of room. so right now we are standing on land that's one of the few remaining sections that's open for new burials underground. and then over here to this side is route 110 and back of that, that is a wall. those are walls where people who choose cremation have cremated remains placed in an urn can be in those walls and families do come and like to touch the walls. this year going on right now we have an ongoing survey focused on eligibility asking people about limiting eligibility. we could restrict eligibility to those active duty who perish on active duty, medal of honor recipients and valor awards. so if we have those type of restrictions we can remain open for generations to come. one thing that's very special
3:43 pm
about arlington, americans from every single conflict in this country have been laid to rest here, every single one. mike: hundreds of military dogs are deployed overseas serving in some of the most dangerous places to help save lives, but their crucial service doesn't come without lots of training. our leland vittert went to quantity toe -- quantico to see what those brave k-9s go through before heading out to the field. >> suspect apprehension as well as explosive detector dog. he locates anywhere between 15 and 30 different types of explosives. >> you think about the training that goes into a marine. how does that compare to the training that goes into a marine dog? >> the same kind of training. we will get marines from military police corps, recruit training all that, same thing with the dogs. the dogs go through basic training and then we get them. they are very basic.
3:44 pm
