3:02 am
pete: theyer wonderful. brian: kiefer and shawna married 17 years. have a kid rigney. they did something i'm in awe of. they took off five years and focused on themselves. ainsley: on the family. brian: when you have a hit song, are you going to kiss me or not. can you live off of that five years. ainsley: make a lot of money and take five years off and then write another song. they must be out of money. they're back. brian: they are back here to make some. they are always great. meanwhile, two minutes after the hour. let's begin with a packed hour. we have a fox news alert. president trump will receive, get this, a top secret letter straight from the desk of dictator kim jong un. that's going to be some time today. ainsley: it will be hand delivered. north korean delegates heading to washington after days of high stakes talks with the secretary of state mike pompeo. pete: our own alison barber is live in washington with a possible summit. alison. >> good morning to all of you. the guy delivering this
3:03 am
letter will be the most senior north korean official to visit the white house in about 18 years. in 2000 top military leader delivered a letter to then president bill clinton from kim jong il. tim young chol is expected to do the same thing today hand a letter from kim jong il's son and current leader kim jong un. kim young chol is one of the dictator's closest aids. intelligence chief currently sanctioned by the u.s. because of cyber attacks in the 2014 hack on sony pictures. u.s. secretary of state mike pompeo spent the past two days meeting with kim in new york. the summit is, of course, not officially back on but pompeo says there is significant progress. >> we have made real progress in the last 72 hours towards setting the conditions. the conditions are putting president trump and chairman kim jong un place real
3:04 am
progress could be made. >> he hopes it happens and wants it to be meaningful. president says they might need a second or third meeting or none. the u.s. wants to see complete and reirreversible denuclearization of the korean peninsula. unclear if north korea will actually agree to that pete, ainsley, brian? ainsley: thank you. brian: so much going on. thanks so much. today is going to be very interesting. because we don't even have the formality. what is it about that letter that's so top secret. we're starting to get red jr. to the reality. they are not going to say grab your cranes and we will give you the missiles it will be stage by stage. pete: second or third or fourth meeting likely. brian: which is logical, isn't it? ainsley: pompeo says the summit is expected to happen. whether or not it's going to happen on the 12th, we're not sure. we do know our delegates is in singapore. they have scopsd it all out.
3:05 am
north koreaible officials have done that as well. we have to see. definitely a chance for our president to bring peace to that area or help bring peace to that area. brian: of course russia sticks their nose. in lavrov says i would like a summit and loosen some restrictions on the tariffs. ainsley: everyone wants a summit. pete: russia is just helping out. brian: you knew when roseanne had tweet and new show was scandal scrutiny on everyone. first stop samantha bee and vile comments about ivanka trump. pete: she made more than off collar remark about ivanka trump. she is now apologizing. this is what she tweeted yesterday samantha bee. i would like to sincerely apologize to ivanka trump and to my viewers for using an explicative on my show to describe her last night. it was inappropriate and inexcusable. i controlled the line and i deeply regret it so apology
3:06 am
and regret. the interesting part is how would tbs respond. ainsley: she is a comedian. has a successful show there. especially for the folks who don't like this administration because she attacks him. they responded tbs saying samantha bee has taken the right action and apologizing for the vile and inappropriate language she used about ivanka trump last night. those words should not have been aired. it was our mistake, too. and reregret it. brian: here's the thing. have you kill a show? sponsors. state farm, we have asked tbs to suspend other advertising in the program. auto trader. thanks those who reached out full frontal. the offensive, unacceptable did not reflect the views. as a result we have suspended our sponsorship. even though she says a lookout of this for people i know who watch the show. now all of a sudden even though it was scripted, even though it was edited or not edited and then aired taped. now everyone is apologizing. the producers and everyone who signed off on it are
3:07 am
culpable because that's the format. ainsley: they way you make money is advertisements. if viruadvertiser are not choosg that show. it's a loss of money. pete: on tape, vetted through everyone, produced. now it's good enough to apologize. she keeps her job. no one gets fired but, on the other side. one tweet at the wrong time terrible as it may be, and the whole entire show is cancelled. make me wonder if a comedian had said the same thing about, say, hillary clinton's daughter, if she had been president, whether or not a conservative comedian had done that whether that would -- an apology would have been enough. the double standard is always glaring. ainsley: people are so tired of the hatred on both sides. you know she is a mother. what would you say about another mother? what would you say in front of your kids? you have to think of it that way? brian: in a way i know in comedy clubs and things do
3:08 am
you a lot of stuff is for adults only. that's what she is looking at. even though tbs is a basic cable outlet. i laugh at state farm and auto trader. really? you had no idea. if you look back at her shows she won an award last night and they locked out the press. pete: award they gave her for social advancement? brian: yeah, it's called holding the torch for jon stewart while he works his farm. it's basically the same comedy. ainsley: interesting. if you want to look at the bright side of this. maybe this is a chance for us to have a little dialogue and say there are things you can't say taking it too far. why does she feel that way about someone? pete: say whatever you want. i believe in free speech. i think comedians should be funny. if you want to be vile, be vile over here and vile people can listen to your vileness. i don't want to live in a world where there is free speech police. that word is acceptable. you're acceptable. who chooses? brian: not acceptable.
3:09 am
ainsley: not acceptable. and some people on the left are even calling her out on, this sally fields. brian: when we're in trouble as a society i look to the flying nun. again, guy there by the way she hated that show. she won't even watch it back sister patrel who flew around. ainsley: let me read sally fields tweet. brian: i like samantha bee's a lot but she is wrong to call ivanka trump a c word. because the c word are powerful,. pete: taking a shot at ivanka trump in that tweet. unbelievable. >> what else do you have to say? pete: there is a political ad that came out. this guy is running for congress in virginia. is he a democrat. he ran an ad, again, this got produced. this got approved. he decided to compare president trump to bin
3:10 am
laden. listen to this ad. >> dan i approve this message. i'm different i'm not a politician. i'm a road scholar served in combat. i'm for medical parole option and drug companies that rip off seniors. i will gun lob i don't to protect children not guns. after 9/11 the greatest threat to our democracy lived in a cave. today he lives in the white house. no one, even the president is above the law. barbara comstock has beaten every politician. i'm different. ainsley: barbara comstock first time he has ever run. is he out of touch. relying on stunts to gain traction. it's outrageous and offensive. brian: sea veteran. fought in iraq and afghanistan. highly produced. there is obviously someone behind him with money. they think this is the way to do it because they say his campaign is flailing. he is getting buried.
3:11 am
pete: i'm not surprised by it at all. here is the three things he stands for expand the welfare state, medicare for all. okay. that's good how will we pay for that two take away your guns, modern democratic party and three we will resist and compare the president to the worst terrorist in the world. literally that's how devoid the democratic party is of ideas. and that kind of ad exposes it. it's your point, brian, they thought about it. it wasn't like off hand comment. ainsley: think about what he did. is he responsible for 9/11. he is response cybil for some deadly attacks around the world. brian: how good was jillian and rob this morning on "fox & friends first"? ainsley: they were excellent. did i watch. brian: jillian, kee. >> jillian: keep going. i appreciate your viewership. start off with a fox news alert. brand new photos of a suspected deputy killer taken days before the murder. there is a reward for the

3:13 am
criminal charges against andrew mccabe. that's according to the "the washington post." the former deputy fbi director was fired in april after the justice department accused him of lying to federal investigators over media leaks. if he is charged and convicted, he could face five years behind bars. his attorney says he did nothing wrong. a look at your headlines. back to you. written brian right. we will see when that ig report comes out. brian: i see him in the wings. the media hammering president trump after he pardoned dinesh d'souza. >> frenzy all about a signal to his allies. >> he is throwing raw meat, a bone to the far right here. brian: wow, dinesh d'souza joining us live for his first tv interview since being pardoned by the president. ainsley: plus canadian prime minister justin trudeau threatening to retaliate after president trump issues new steel tariffs overnight. stuart varney says bring it on, baby.

3:18 am
fox business network is this the right move? >> president trump did not get the response that he wanted from our trading partners when he suggested we're going to get tariffs. he made that suggestion about a month ago. didn't get what he wanted. he is taking a very hard line. and the result is a very tense standoff between europe, canada, mexico, and to some degree china. now, that scares a lot of people. when you have the words trade war in the headlines, that's very worrying to investors and voters and everybody else. you don't want a trade war. so you sort of think workers, what's going on here in the fact is the president is taking a very tough line. it's all part of these long-term negotiations which are going to go on for a long time to come. don't expect any kind of change or any kind of real peace and movement for some time to come. now there is one thing to adhere. overnight, china reduced tariffs on a whole variety of imports going into china.
3:19 am
it doesn't affect america that much. the chinese are not givings that much. wilbur ross, commerce secretary is on his way to china this weekend. you will get results out of that. china/u.s. the rest of it a standoff and that's in place. brian: is it smart to take on our friends as well as our enemies at the same time? >> look, it's part of the federal governmentation. this is a global chess board. there's lots of moving parts here. america-china, european union, canada, mexico. they are all moving. the discussions are taking place. they are all going on at the same time. ainsley: how does that affect the average american family? >> in the short run, if those tariffs are imposed and stay, then you will have rising prices, small rises in prices for some items. that's it. i think our economy can absorb it. our economy is extremely strong at this point. we can absorb minor league price increases on some products. in the short run.
3:20 am
pete: does it back certain industries and jobs. >> interesting point, peter. this morning, peter navarro, one of the touch trade negotiators he has a op-ed piece in "u.s.a. today." is he defending these tariffs. he says this is part of president trump's plan to rebuild industrial america. it gives several examples of how that's going. brian: varney and company 9 to noon fbn. the trump team is fighting with each other. they have to get on the same page. >> you always have to get the last word on trade. good luck. brian bine to america and the people of earth. thank you very much, stuart. comedian samantha bee apologizing for her vulgar remark about ivanka trump. mark levin says it's not enough. the great one next. pete: he will weigh in on the president's pardon of dinesh d'souza. he joins us live for his first tv interview since getting that pardon. what might seem like a small cough to you...

pete: welcome back. couple of quick headlines for you. missouri governor eric greitens will officially leave office today. facing impeachment after being charged with invasion of privacy stemming from an affair he had before becoming governor. that charge was dismissed new charges if he violated campaign finance law. lieutenant governor mike parsons will be sworn in today. former obama attorney attorney general eric holder will speak today. many hopefuls have attended the events in the past. holder says at this point is he only thinking about running in 2020. there are going to be a lot of them. brian: over 50, i think. ainsley: from a new book out of the obama administration to a crass remark about ivanka trump by samantha bee, it has been a very busy
3:25 am
week. pete: what does the host of life, liberty and mark levin have to say about all of this? brian: how about busy day? >?i sat down with him to talk about that. >> if somebody had said that about chelsea clinton or either of the obama daughters, the nation in unison would be repulsed. brian: samantha bee did apologize for her comment in using that word to describe ivanka trump. your reaction. >> yeah and roseanne barr apologized, too. she should be fired, she is a vile, disgusting person. it's not even a question of comedy. it's just a matter of what you say about the president's daughter. hot hell talks this way? seriously? she should be fired. take her apology with her. brian: mark, let's move on to some partisan coming down pas week. dinesh d'souza. >> what dinesh d'souza did it not warrant 20 months in
3:26 am
a federal prison. that's not how those cases are normally handled. the left wing democrat the u.s. attorney in the southern district of new york. mueller's board of education buddy. comey's buddy went after dinesh d'souza. the president looked at this and the pardon powers president to intervene if he thinks he should. you know what? i'm not buying this. i don't like what was done to him and i will pardon him. the left wing will be there no matter what happens. that's why i like this president he is doing what he believes. in they deserved pardons in part of my hummable opinion what was done in the justice system. sometimes injustices are done to conservatives and republicans. in this case that's the case. brian: looks as though back again is attorney general jeff sessions. trey gowdy said if i'm attorney general, jeff sessions, i probably leave the job because i'm not going to be serving the president well. how do you feel about now even though it's almost a year later, the russia investigation goes on and jeff sessions still has that
3:27 am
job. where do you stand, mark? >> well, you know, i have known jeff sessions for 30 years. we worked together at the justice department. he was u.s. attorney. i was chief of staff and i like him very, very much. i think he made a terrible mistake here. i agree if he was going to recuse himself he probably shouldn't have taken the job or if he did recuse himself he probably should have stepped down. the president has a right to an attorney general of his choosing. i would say to trey gowdy maybe you ought to step down a little quicker too. your nonsense this not being a spy and informant in criminal cases they call it informant. it's not a criminal case it's a counter intelligence case. don't you know the difference? you are a former federal prosecutor. they don't want to call him a spy. now they are telling us the trump campaign was never investigated. let me suggest that mr. gowdy and mr. rubio and some of the others, go back and listen to the testimony of mr. comey himself, in march of 2017, in which he said in front of the house intelligence committee among other things the trump campaign is under
3:28 am
investigation. what's wrong with these guys? they are handed information about a spy, they should be concerned about these police state tactics but they never are instead they want to vote to protect mueller. how about you vote to protect the constitution. you want to investigate russia's influence in our elections? why don't you investigate the obama administration that turned a blind eye to it that was in charge when the russians were interfering with our election rather than the victims. the victims. that is the trump people. brian: you gave me a perfect segue to excerpt in the "new york times" book out by ben rhodes, close aid to the president especially when it came to foreign policy. evidently ben rhodes got permission to talk about what he was talking about after the election came down. one of the things president obama speculated was maybe i came along 10 years too early. my assumption is he means the country wasn't ready for him. do you believe the country wasn't ready for president obama? >> i believe the country has never been ready for president obama because, when you want to
3:29 am
fundamentally transform a country, do you know what that means, brian? that means you don't love your country. you want to fundamentally transform a country. do you want to fundamentally transform its economy to capitalism to something else. fundamentally transform its government from a constitutional republic to something else? we have never been able to hold these leftist and obama included to the definition of fundamental transformation. when you love your wife you don't say i want to fundamentally transform you. or when you love your kids, i want to fundamentally transform you, kid. that sounds pretty weird to me. so maybe america has never been ready for barack obama and should never be ready for barack obama. brian: he also called this president when he was a nominee a cartoon. what's your reaction to president obama calling president trump a cartoon? >cartoon? i will take a cartoon over a leftist any dave the week. let me tell you about this cartoonist he stood up to the koreans, iranians, and russians. nothing obama was capable of doing. he didn't surveil the prime
3:30 am
minister of israel like obama did or jewish groups like obama did or members of congress like obama did. he hasn't used the irs against his political opponents like obama did. he wouldn't have stood still for benghazi the way obama did. he wouldn't have undermined the united states military the way obama did. or undermined local police forces the way obama did or stuffed our courts with left wing law professors the way obama did. cartoon character? i don't think we need lectures from barack obama quite frankly. brian: mark levin on his game. can you catch more of that, 10:00, life, liberty and levin. he has andrew mccarthy for the entire hour. one of the clearest thinkers in the business. awesome radio host. glad to have him on the tea team: pete: president trump pardoned dinesh d'souza. >> big bouquet. >> all about a signal to his allies. >> throwing raw meat, a bone
3:31 am
to the far right here. pete: dinesh joins us live for his first tv interview since being pardoned, next. you totanobody's hurt, new car. but there will still be pain. 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.
3:32 am
with liberty mutual new car replacement™, we'll replace the full value of your car. liberty stands with you™. liberty mutual insurance. my secret visitors. hallucinations and delusions. the unknown parts of living with parkinson's. what plots they unfold, but only in my mind. over 50% of people with parkinson's will experience hallucinations or delusions during the course of their disease. if your loved one is experiencing these symptoms, talk to your parkinson's specialist. there are treatment options that can help. my visitors should be the ones i want to see. my visitors should be the ones i was wondering if an electric toothbrush really cleans better than a manual. and my hygienist says it does but they're not all the same. who knew? i had no idea. so she said, look for one that's shaped like a dental tool with a round brush head. go pro with oral-b. oral-b's rounded brush head surrounds each tooth to gently remove more plaque, and oral-b is the first electric toothbrush brand accepted by the american dental association for its effectiveness and safety.
3:34 am
ainsley: we start with a fox news alert. president trump grant ago full pardon to dinesh d'souza who pleaded guilty to campaign finance fraud in a new york senate election. now breathe ago sigh of relief. brian: dinesh d'souza joins us now for first tv interview since his official pardon. dinesh, what was it like to get the call from the president? did you know it was coming? >> did i not know. i was in my office just working away and the operator came on the line and said is this dinesh d'souza? yes. hold the line for the president of the united states. and there was trump. and the president said dinesh, you have been a great voice for freedom. and he said that i got to
3:35 am
tell you man-to-man have you been screwed. he goes i have been looking at the case. i knew from the beginning that it was fishy. but he said upon reviewing it he felt a great injustice had been done and that using his power he was going to protect phi it, sorprotect phire slate. ainsley: obama and his stooges tried to extinguish my american dream. thank you, donald trump for fully restoring both. why do you have like you were singled out by the obama administration? >> >> here's the important thing that is that justice is simply not a matter of hate and you break the law. it's also a matter of was the penalty proportionate to the crime and did other people who do the same thing get the same penalty? now, i have become very familiar with these campaign finance cases over the past
3:36 am
several years. no american in our country's history has ever been indicted, let alone prosecuted, let alone locked up for doing what i did. there is just not a single case. so what happened here is obama and his team, eric holder, shal new york decided to make an example over here. obama's anger over my movie that i made about him. i know obama was upset about the movie because he was raging about it on his own website barack obama.com. this was a vindictive political hit that was kind of aimed at putting me out of business, essentially making, destroying my credibility, making it impossible for me to make movies, write books. and that has failed but it still left a cloud over me. i would be a lifelong felon. i would never be able to vote and never have my full rights. so i'm very grateful to
3:37 am
president trump for giving me those rights back. pete: dinesh, the so-called mainstream media sis this is symbolism, it's signaling. this is not real justice. what do you say to those who look sideways at this? >> well, i think it's important to just look at what happened. my prosecutor tweeted out yesterday and he goes let's just face the facts, deposit measure d'souza voluntarily pleaded guilty to this offense. now, this word voluntarily needs to be put into quotation marks because, in reality, this is how this kind of thing happens. the government says to you we are going to charge you with violating the campaign finance law. are you going to plead guilty or not guilty? you say i'm thinking of pleading not guilty. then the government says well, all right. we're now going to put a second charge on top of that. this is called filing a false document. you say well did i do something else wrong? they go, no, no. it's the same thing we are just describing it in a different way and pending a second charge but this one carries five years in
3:38 am
federal prison. so essentially, we're going to destroy your life. now, if you plead guilty to the first charge, we'll drop the second one. the point i want to make here is that this kind of legal bludgeoning tactic is used not only against the guilty but also against the innocent. it's a way of, in a sense, forcing you to submit and then, of course, they put on a very solemn robe and said well he voluntarily pleaded. the voluntary issue here is highly dubious. brian: right. and yo your feeling after spending time in jail, how would it change you? >> well, i was put in a halfway house in san diego for 8 months sleeping overnight in the dormitory with actually 120 hardened felons. it's not my normal crowd. it was an -- opening experience. i came out of it fine. in some ways i at this temperamentally emotionally i'm even stronger than i was before. and i have learned a lot. i don't in that sense regret
3:39 am
my experience. but, i do feel that as an immigrant, just the simple haunting sound of united states of america vs. dinesh d'souza, an army of fbi agents going after you. and now a congressional committee has a copy of my fbi file, a file that the fbi had been refusing to release to congress for a long time. and now we kind of know why. because, when you look in the file, you see that i'm red flagged as a prominent conservative critic of the obama administration. now, why is that in my file? well, it's in my file because the fbi is signaling to the holder justice department hey, here's a guy you might want to go after. here's a guy who is one of your political enemies and so this is the kind of way the signaling works. the signaling is within the government targeting me for selective prosecution. ainsley: wow, all of that for giving wendy long new york politician $20,000. thank you, dinesh. pete: appreciate your time.
3:40 am
congratulations. ainsley: hand it over to jillian who has headlines for us. jillian: good morning to you. good friday morning. get you caught up on some of the stories we are following starting with this. a teenager shoots his uncle who showed up at his home with a hatchet. jerry lee robinson tried breaking into the house in mississippi. his mother says her son was home alone and acted in self-defense. >> tried to hurt my son and my son did what he was supposed. to say he defended himself. it could have been the other way around. i'm the one having to burry. jillian: robinson had a history of threatening the family. no charges have been filed. kim kardashian west is speaking out about her meeting with president trump on prison reform in an exclusive interview with mike.com. >> he really spent the time to listen to our case that we are making for alice. he really understood. and i am very hopeful that

here with his reaction is former nashville tennessee police officer vincent hill. vincent, thanks for being with us. >> hey, good morning, ainsley, thank you. ainsley: good morning. major problem here, obviously. we are already up to 28 of those officers killed by gunfire this year. we are not even half way through the year. last year the total number was 35. what's the problem and what needs to be done? >> well, i think it's a sign of the times and i think it's a sign of what's fashionable in the mainstream media, right? everyone has this hatred for police. everyone points that finger to president trump. but, i think there is a deeper issue that we're dealing with here. i mean, we are already at 28 officers. it seems like this is occurring every day. and the thing that upsets me the most, there is no protest. there is no kneeling. who is kneeling for these officers? who is protesting for these officers that are going out and doing the most dangerous job in the world and just like that, their lives can be taken. ainsley: i know, why is that? why is the story being
3:49 am
ignored? >> you know, ainsley, i think about that every day and i talk about these cases in my podcast "beyond the badge" how the mainstream media play as big role into making the police look like the enemy and making police oh, they die, it doesn't matter. because that's what they're supposed to do. no, police are supposed to go home to their families every night just like every other citizen in this country. that's what it's all about. ainsley: what do you think as a police officer? what do you think about when you see the images of the marches and the protest and you see those church members standing on the steps against our police force saying don't even call 911 if you have an emergency? >> well, i think it's just ludicrous to say least. i mean, at the end of the day, police are the people that will run into a building. a falling building to save someone. but, yet, because of the mainstream media and what's fashionable, what's going on
3:50 am
in social media, police are hated, they are disrespected. but, again, these are people that will run into a building, run into a fire, put their lives on the line for a citizen and think get no respect. ainsley: i know for a very small paycheck. god bless them all. thank you, vincent for being with us have. great weekend. >> thank you. ainsley: have you heard what president obama said about president trump? he called him a cartoon. brian hosts a very special event honoring our veterans, including one who went from a battlefield hero to a hoe here at home. ♪ an american soldier. >> the warriors in this room, you guys are the reasons i woke up every single morning for the last seven years working at wounded warrior project. ainsley: that veteran andrew and the ceo of wounded warriors, they're going to join us live next ♪ i'm out here on the front line ♪uebu

you know everything about this. brian: i want to know once and for all are you going to kiss me or not? i just need the answer to that question. pete: question are you going to eat me or not. it's national doughnut day. some where homer simpson is filing. brian: participate in this read. ainsley: i will get on to it. when it says his name you read it. pete: i will swallow. ainsley: we begin with a presidenfoxnews alert. president trump will receive a letter from kim jong un desk today. pete: heading to washington after high stakes talk with secretary of state mike pompeo. brian: everyone has their fingers crossed. kevin, it seems like 9 seconds ago i tossed to you to hear the summit is off but now it's all but officially on? >> amazing how fast things happen. by the way, let me throw this at you. a hand delivered letter by very nature underscores the importance of the correspondence. certainly when that note makes its way here to the white house, which is what
4:03 am
we believe, that should tell you plenty where the talks are headed at this particular time. by the way yesterday in the city, mike pompeo, our newly minted secretary of state met with counterpart. the two men actually covered more ground than a lot of people thought they could. they even said afterwards, did the secretary, he covered all the ground necessary. anin less time than expected. afterwards, he also delivered i think what you could easily classify as a message of hope and one of opportunity. >> we have made real progress in the last 72 hours towards setting the conditions. the conditions are putting president trump and chairman kim jong un a place where we think there could be real progress made by the two of them meeting. it does no good if we are in a place if we don't think there is real opportunity. >> before you get all giddy over the possibility of making history do. keep this in mind the north has previously made grand plans and proclamations about that nuclear program only to go back on its word time and time and time again
4:04 am
as you look back there in 2000 with bill clinton a sober view from here at the white house. still optimistic one. and if the official does make his way here as we expect, it should make for a very interesting day here. guys, back to you. brian: kevin, thanks so much. it's going to come down to the way the president wrote that letter. he wrote the letter when he cancelled to say, listen, we could have done something great. it didn't happen. it doesn't mean he can't. and by the way when it comes to nuclear weapons, you don't have a shot. by the way. pete: got my phone number. brian: left the door open. and he -- and by the way, it's not like he has 25 years of diplomatic experience. that was totally donald trump in his language. pete: negotiating experience. ainsley: the ball is in our court. he wrote that letter. it was strong. it was thanking him, kim jong un for releasing the hostages. it was a reminder that we also have nuclear weapons. and we are strong and we are a strong country. and the ball is in our court. why are canceling the meeting and we get to determine if that meeting is happening and back on. pete: speaking of strength.
4:05 am
presidents have a lot of powers one power is the pardon. yesterday news came out that president trump had pardoned dinesh d'souza. we had the opportunity to have dinesh on this program moments ago for an exclusive, his first interview since. this is dinesh d'souza on his reaction to a presidential pardon. listen. >> no american in our country's history has ever been indicted, let alone prosecuted, let alone locked up for doing what i did. i'm very grateful to president trump for giving those rights back. he said upon reviewing it he felt a great injustice had been done and that using his power he was going to rectify it, sort of clear the slate. and he said he just wanted me to be out there to be a bigger voice than ever defending the principles that i believe in. brian: by the way, that's the fifth one -- pardon. those people think the president is just winging it. he has denied 82 requests for pardons, 98 requests for commutation that came through the pardon attorney's office. he has 2108 petitions.
4:06 am
ainsley: in order to be pardoned you have to show signs -- though is basically not saying we are expunging your record. it's still on your record. but it's a sign of forgiveness. and you have to take responsibility for your crime. you have to have good conduct after your conviction and your release. and, when required, you still have to disclose that you were convicted but can also disclose that you were pardoned. pete: the issue with dinesh d'souza no one who did what he did on campaign finance has ever been treated the way he has. ainsley: no one has been indicted he said exsepghtsd for him. pete: did he a movie on barack obama and the obama justice department. decided to slam him. it looked like malice. brian: who is next? rod blagojevich seems to be overcharged as governor of illinois. ainsley: martha stewart? brian: for saying something that seemed to be braggadocious statement but not action or martha stewart next? pete: we will see. email us friends@foxnews.com who should president trump
4:07 am
pardon next? i sent my email suggestion his name is first lieutenant clint lore rance. found guilty, second degree murder he ordered his guys to fire on a motorcycle coming toward him. split second decision. i could have made that wrong call. they killed him even though they were insurgents in fort leavenworth for 19 years. that's the kind of guy. the forgotten man in jail. clinton rance who deserves a pardon. >> we have done this segment a couple of times. colonel west hammers that every day. i'm glad you brought that up. ainsley: apparently an apology is good enough for samantha bee. she apologizes for those disgusting remarks that she said about ivanka and then gets honored by hollywood for advancing social change. this was her tweet after she called ivanka that word. she said i would like to sincerely apologize to ivanka trump and my viewers for using an explicative on my show to describe her last night. it was inappropriate and inexcusable. i crossed the line and i
4:08 am
deeply regret it. pete: the big question in situations all the time is how is the network going to react? tbs put out a statement, she shortly after saying samantha bee has taken the right action in apologizing for the vile and nopghts language she used about ivanka trump last night. those words should not have been aired. it was our mistake, too. and we regret it brian you pointed out last hour this was something that was taped. it was produce you had. it was approved. yet, in this inner stance, because she is a liberal advancing social change an apology is good enough. pete: trump hater. brian: i do see her sense of humor. i remember when she did her features on the daily show. i could appreciate them. i know she has won awards before. one note. hate. i haven't watched enough of it. if you go back through her shows do you really think this is the only time and do you notice, too, who takes the high road again? ivanka. she never gets involved. never signs in. even though it's her family. they were ridiculing what she was holding her child.
4:09 am
she was always stays out of the fray. ainsley: many are upset about the double standard though. if a conservative said this about the obama girls or about chelsea clinton, they would get fired. brian: gone, done, out. pete: it's not even a question. you know they would be canned. ainsley: just a double standard. pete: it's everywhere. the left suddenly doubles down. listen to sally field what she tweeted yesterday. ainsley: she said it wasn't enough. pete: i like samantha bee a lot but she is flat wrong to call ivanka a c word. our powerful biewflt implying that ivanka is not powerful, beautiful and honest. brian: go read it. auto trader and state farm have asked to have their ads pulled. joy reid and what she has tweeted and boggs on msnbc. they will start going back. if it starts getting more aggressive look what president said in 1990 when he was a businessman.
4:10 am
it is not going to end. pete: we live in a free country. ainsley: rush limbaugh made a good point. if you are conservative, there are consequences if you say something like this. if you are liberal, not so much. listen. >> you can say anything you want without consequence if you are a leftist anti-never churcher. that includes female feminists because although seek is fairness, tolerance equal pay and equal justice. this is the left. warn conservatives that they are coarsening the culture with horrible insulting racist, sexist bigoted language. which, of course, isn't happening. this is what being a liberal is. lecture conservatives, tell them they need to be civil. ring your hands and worry about what's happening to politeness and tolerance. pete: that is irish limbaugh at his best. right ideas the elite crowd, the pc crowd then can you
4:11 am
say whatever you want. if you don't, mind your p's and q's otherwise you are going down. who wants to live in that world? brian: just wait, another day, more controversy about existing shows. that's what roseanne has started the whole her, you pulings. hey, jillian. jillian: one heck of a week. thank god it's friday. good morning to you. good morning to you at home. get you caught up with this fox news alert. brand new photos of a suspected deputy killer taken days before the murder. there is $46,000 reward for information leading to steven wiggins. he's charged with killing sergeant deputy daniel baker and stealing his gun. rain is now complicating the manhunt in tennessee as it's washing away footprints and scents. police warning the public to stay alert. >> anyone that's capable of murdering one of our brothers, one of our servants in our community that is an you are joint and immediate threat to the public safety. jillian: a go fund knee page for baker's family has
4:12 am
raised more than 20,000ed the so far. we have put a link up on foxandfriends.com. thousands of people now being told to evacuate hawaii in the next 24 hours or face being arrested. the expanding lava threatening to trap them. look at this. bulldozers now being brought in to carve out new escape routes through cold hardened lava. with no end in sight, tensions are running high. >> i live here. >> also setting in. jillian: that man right there arrested for assaulting a neighbor who he thought was a looter. canada, mexico, and the eu threatening to retaliate against brand new tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. they can now impose their own tariffs on american goods like clothing, meat and produce. stuart varney host of varney and co joined us earlier to explain what that could mean for the u.s. >> the president is taking a very tough line. it's all part of these
4:13 am
long-term negotiations which are going to go on for a long time to come. don't expect any kind of change or any kind of real peace and movement for some time to come. jillian: the tariffs will likely be a hot topic at the g-7 summit in canada next week. the nba finals getting off to a wild start. the golden state warriors pushing the cleveland cavaliers in overtime. lebron james furious with his teammate who mistakenly let the clock run out instead of trying to take a gym winning shot. if overtime it's the warriors winning 124-114. things getting heated. takes it out to the three-point line all he had to do was put it back. pete: he thought they were ahead by one. had a chance to seal the game. >> thanks, jillian. compares president trump to usama bin laden. >> after 9/11, the greatest threat to our democracy lived in a cave. today he lives in the white house.

brian: president obama has this reaction to president trump's election victory in 2016. ainsley: in a new memoir by former aide ben rhodes obama said. this maybe this is what people want. i have the economy set up well for him. no facts, no consequences. they can just have a cartoon. here to react is white house press secretary former white house press secretary sean spicer and author of the book "briefing, the politics, the president and the press." >> congratulations. i'm behind pete here. brian: we all are. what's your reaction, sean? did you work for a cartoon president. >> no i did not work for a cartoon president. i think it's ironic hillary clinton was the mass ter trying to blame everybody for the election loss and now they are getting in on the act of who else to blame. the bottom line is we had a great data operation, a great ground game and strong messenger in president trump. i think they can makes a many excuses that they want. but the bottom line is that president trump stand into a message that all of these
quote
4:19 am
folks in washington had lost sight of is the american people wanted somebody to champion their efforts, their concerns and donald trump was that messenger. pete: democrats have since been trying to find their message. pretty much centered on the resistance. a comparison from a virginia democrat ad goes further than almost anything we have seen. watch this ad. brian: right now. pete: if we have it. we don't? ainsley: it's coming. >> dan helmer, i approve this message. i'm different. i'm not a politician. i'm a road scholar to served in combat. i'm for medicare option and against companies that rip off seniors. i will fight the gun lobby to protect children, not guns. after 9/11, the greatest threat to our democracy lived in a cave. today he lives in the white house. no one, even the president, is above the law. barbara comstock has beaten every politician. i'm different. ainsley: sean? >> it's reprehensible. the idea that you are
4:20 am
comparing the president of the united states to a terrorist that inflicted death to our country, is reprehensible. i think what the biggest problem is in the 10th congressional district in virginia. have you 12 people trying to defeat barbara comstock. she is a tough fighter worked hard for the commonwealth of virginia and the people there. they are trying to figure out how to win this primary by going so far to the left. if you watch the commercials in northern virginia, it's one extreme after the next. because that's the only way they can win a democratic primary these days, which is go as far as you can to the left and then the next person has to go even further. it's a sad state when that's the level that you have to go at to win a democratic primary these days. pete: so true. ainsley: stunts to try to gain traction. >> that's the kind of stuff and this goes along with samantha bee and all this other stuff where the idea this isn't getting called out. that the left gets a pass. had you rush on. i saw the interview you did with mark levin. the theme is consistent.

4:26 am
i will ask you questions. i know the players are out there doing a lot of the heavy lifting you might say. coach, i will start with you. you were coming back from a championship. you were riding high. 13-0. you were undefeated team. great team. what did you see on the side of the road and what was the decision? >> the decision was we needed to pull over and act fast. >> did you see the accident or did you just roll up on the car overturned? >> personally, i was in the van that wasn't there. i was in the one that was in front of the accident. i seen -- i actually passed the vehicle that actually flipped. and about 20 minutes later i got a call and my other coaches and chaperones told me that they had to stop for an accident and help somebody out. pete: orlando, you were there, i believe, talk to us about what you saw and what action was taken. >> we were probably a couple hundred meters back. we pulled up. we saw the dust. and after the dust kind of
4:27 am
settled, i ran up to the suv. the guy was in and out of consciousness. i called some of the boys over. we kind of helped him get out. that was pretty quick. and we couldn't get -- we couldn't get his wife to safety at that point. so, we tried everything. at that point another van of ours pulled up that was about 202, 5 minutes behind us. all the boys kind of banded together and got it done. pete: so we're watching video right now of you cutting the seat belt off that woman. when that other van showed up and you had enough muscle you might say. the decision was to get all the kids out there and push. not an easy situation for any kid. did you have any hesitation from your players. >> no. so my van that i was in. i had six linemen in it. so, we thought we could do it by ourselves and we couldn't. but once the running backs, tight ends, everybody else
4:28 am
showed up, it was easy. pete: those linemen are never going to live that down so you know. [laughter] have you talked to the couple yet? have you connected with the folks that you helped save? >> yes. last night we went and saw them. took them some things. gave them a jersey. and the boys, you know, we said a prayer with them. we were there for probably a half hour last night. we will go back in a couple days and take them more gifts. we have a local car dealership here that's probably going to be don't nalgt a vehicle for them. we're starting a go fund me for them to get back on their feet. that was their only vehicle. pete: really really neat. in a movement need, all you hope for is a good samaritan or a van full of football players to save you. the fact that the black knights didn't hesitate speaks to the character of the team. obviously as undefeated team on the field. great players. but you are raising great men as well. so kudos rudy jackson,

4:46 am
in the week who was canned within hours for a comment she posted on twitter. her whole cast are out of jobs because of a reprehensible tweet that no one is defending. then we have samantha bee who uses the most nasty sexist term you could possibly use against a woman. she is supposed to be a feminist. and also says some nasty incest innuendo about president donald trump. nothing happened. she apologizes. it's not a sincere apology as we can see. she didn't apologize until sponsors starting fleeing her. again last night she was honored with a social change award at the tv academy and basically complained that people were talking about her comment because the real issue is immigration. which she got wrong by the way. ainsley: this is her apology. i would like to sincerely apologize to ivanka trump and to my viewers for using an explicative on my show to describe her last night. it was inappropriate and inexcusable. i crossed a line and i deeply regret it.
4:47 am
you don't think that's sincere. >> that's not sincere. she did not apologize for the incest comment ever about that. that fell by the wayside. ainsley: talking about the president with his daughter. >> exactly. dropped some innuendos that they have a incestuous relationship which is vile and disgusting. social change award comic probably the only funny thing about samantha bee. basically complained that people were mad about this. ainsley: why are we at this point in our society? you even have sally field doubling down on that and saying she actually didn't go far enough by calling her the c-word. >> it's because the left doesn't care about decency. they act like they care about decency when roseanne says something indefensible when nobody on the right will defend. they don't want trump supporters on tv. they don't care about decency. when somebody on the left says something nasty and decent, it's totally fine. it's okay. they will sweep it under the rug. ainsley: why is it okay though? why is it okay to go after ivanka trump and say that
4:48 am
about a woman, a mother, just because they don't like her politics or because they don't like her dad what if this were a conservative saying this about the obama girls or chealsz clinton? what would happen then? >> she would be dropped in a second. again, this is the culture that we live. in i don't want to see people fired for comments for things that someone might deem offensive because that's a subjective term. but, this is where we live. where you will be fired for something that crosses a line that the left doesn't like. ainsley: only problem for firing someone for saying something and not accepting their apology we run the risk of anyone on television or anyone in the public eye not wanting to say what they believe. >> right. ainsley: that goes into free speech and just because you don't believe the same things that someone else does, i'm not sure we want to shut people down. >> i'm with you. i'm with you. i would like to see everybody on air and left the free market handle it people want to boycott.
4:49 am
consumer drives that, that would be ideal. but they just set the standard. and if that's the standard roseanne gets cut for that, which we should have. then samantha bee has to go. ainsley: thank you so much for being with us, amman danchts thank you. ainsley: david bossie and geraldo rivera are going to join us live on the curvey couch in the next hour. it's been called a love story for the ages. president george h.w. bush and his marriage to barbara. now their grand daughter is writing a book about it, and she is going to join us next. ♪ l is for the way you look at me ♪ o is for the only one i see ♪

4:54 am
their relationship is the great american story? >> so i remember throughout the writing of this book we were lucky enough to be able to interview my grandmother a few times. and i remember a year ago we interviewed her for the first time. and my first question to her was what's the secret sauce? what's the secret to your marriage? how have you made it through 77 years with grampy with my grandfather. in the funny way that barbara bush is she says well, i was in love and i am in love, so that's not hard. what a silly question. what she thought was, you know, she was in love. they were in love. and that's the secret sauce. >> love each other. brian: people watching at home what's so hard being a bush? a lot hard. early in their life when he had to establish himself in business. the losses when it came to

politics. ainsley: loss of a child. brian: loss of your mom's sister as a child. and then your grandmother went through brief depression, post partum depression issues. and when you are president and then lose a re-election. it wasn't all green grass. >> yeah. no, they had some really low, low, some hard times. and you know, obviously, the hardest for them together being the locals of robin, their daughter. ainsley: yes. >> it was really amazing through the research of the book and talking to my grandmother, we learned that my aunt robin was sick, they were in new york at a hospital. and my grandmother was the strong one when she was sick. she was with robin and she was reading to her and keeping her spirits up. and my grandfather, we joke in the bush family we have the gene where we are very emotional. he would come in and start crying. my grand mother made a rule no crying in the room with robin. he would be crying in the
4:56 am
hallways. when my aunt robin died, my grandmother was the one who there was a void in the house. and my grandfather kind of lifted her spirits and held her at night while she cried. so, that's the theme throughout the book that you will see is throughout life when one is down the other lifts them up. brian: we only have 30 seconds. how is your grandfather. >> thank you for asking. is he hanging in there. i was in maine this weekend was with him in the hospital. he is getting better every day. i think he is at peace knowing -- we all know my grandmother is in heaven he knows he will be there with her one day. brian: not yet. >> not yet. not soon but one day. ainsley: love will be eternal. thank you for being with us, ellie, congratulations on the new book. brian: i know it's going to be a huge hit. great to meet you. >> you too. brian: david bossie and geraldo rivera will be separately and find a way to get along. ainsley: are they fighting?

david, i start with you. >> it speaks for itself. these people have trump derangement syndrome. they are sick and demented. someone to say this about ivanka trump, who is friend of mine, i hold her in highest regard. incredibly talented. she is a wife, mom, a daughter, to say these type of things, we used word vial. samantha bee needs her mouthwashed out with soap. i don't know what happened to her in her childhood. she is literally no talent. i never heard about her before. anything left wants to say. look at keith olbermann. ainsley: so much hatred. if you disagree with someone, that's okay but you don't have call him this word. >> for sure. to the point he never heard of her before, i believe this was a premeditated, egregious attack on ivanka trump. i believe it went up to the highest levels at tbs this would

5:06 am
is absolutely intolerable. furthermore she also alludes to incest or an incestuous appeal between the first daughter and the president of the united states. this is roseanne in leftist, liberal clothing. i think that the response is, should be very serious. >> she has no business being on television. these people are irresponsible. like geraldo said, somebody approved this script. this was scripted. this was planned. somebody needs to be held accountable. just to apologize, roseanne tried to apologize, they kicked her off the air. the double standard is outrageous. this president does not serve this. they are only serving to help the president. the american people wake up, they expose themselves, the american people realize no matter what this president does, nothing is good enough. they will never agree with him. just, things like this, help this president and you know what? i'm greatful for their
5:07 am
outrageousness. ainsley: geraldo you compared to what she said what roseanne said. to my mind what roseanne said is ultimate worse. >> it is horrible. can't get any lower. ainsley: but samantha bee did, you want to talk about hypocrisy, i don't think you could equate it to roseanne, if this were conservative talking about obama girls -- >> heave-ho. ainsley: that is the double standard. >> i don't want to person fired. i don't want a boycott. >> it is happening. >> that is not my thing. if that is what the commercial interests decide so be it this is an example of how the political divide, the idealogical divide in this country is encouraging people to abandon norms. where are we as an society you can make an ape joke about an african-american woman? where did we go in what happened
5:08 am
to the evolution of our society? you can make a c joke, a feminist can make a c joke about another woman, who david says, working for no pay, helping -- >> how about we don't do that anymore. have great debates on ideas and policy. why is everything in the gutter? why is everything becoming personal? all because they hate this president. they hate this president more than they love this country, the left. the hollywood derangement they have out there, they are out of touch with reality. ainsley: what is it? is it the deep state, anything that a conservative does they want to go after their love life -- >> and their livelihood. ainsley: their money, their children? >> somebody who is conservative does something the left orchestrates corporate america to boycott. pete: yeah. >> this is outrageous, we must boycott, pull your ads. look what happened here on this channel right with laura's show. they tried to do that.

i still replay those network tears from election night but, no, they were surprised. no one was more assured of his own rightness than barack obama. so when this occurred, they were, you know, the reaction was, how could this happen? note though, i understand. i haven't read the book, brian, they then say or rhodes says, of course it was hillary who was running on the same campaign we beat her on. they're always right. and our side is always wrong. brian: yeah, he said i should have known that hillary was vulnerable, that is how we beat her in 2018. >> right, right. brian: attacking her the way he did, they factored in donald trump used racism and other things. that is additional hit. i want to bring you to this quote. president obama, maybe we pushed too far? maybe people just want to fall back into their tribe. what do you think he means by that? >> i think he means, what we heard him, caught him on tape earlier in the administration,
5:27 am
when he talked about guns and religion and so on. you know, he is, rightly described as a transnational agnostic liberal. here the american people still clinging to flag, to country, to their faith, to their guns, and he just doesn't understand it. remember early on in the administration this is when, these great giveaways, when he talked about how bad the economy was under bush and he said, you know, mom goes to the market and look at the price of a rugula. arugula? a lot of americans said what the heck is in arugula. he went to all the right place, went to all the right universities, doesn't quite understand what the american people are about. never got it. can i insert, one i liked when i heard he tried to explain to rhodes or comfort him. he said, ben, there are more stars in the sky than there are grains of sand. huh. profound. what exactly does that tell you? brian: i don't know.

[cheering]
5:34 am
put on something tight and low-cut, and tell your father to [bleep] stop it. >> in addition to that outrageous work, word, put on something tight and low. suggesting that there is some inappropriate thing going on. i mean, if this happened to chelsea clinton, do you think that woman would even be going to the office, getting a social change award? do you think that she would be apologizing? she would be out of the country. i mean look at what happened to dinesh d'souza. thank goodness the president is pardoning him. this is a guy who did a movie, they, against obama and they looked for anything they could to put him in jail and they did. the obama administration, if this happens to liberal president's daughter, totally different. irony, ivanka has devoted her career empowering women. these women want to take her down. pete: how do you fight the double standard? that is what is comes down to. there is clear double standard.
5:35 am
how do you change it? >> i think we'll get to a point, where the cacophony. brian: we're at that point. >> we can't take it anymore. what do we do? what we have to do is, all has to be brought down. the shame of it is, the left has said for years, we're so great, we love everybody. i have never seen such intolerant haters. they don't let the right speak. they don't want them to show up at colleges. they call us every name in the book. things we wouldn't dare do. was i crazy about obama? no. i sucked it up. they hate donald trump. you just saw the numbers there. what he is doing for this country is phenomenal. brian: well, couple things. when roseanne went down justifiably -- >> yeah. brian: you knew more was coming. >> yeah. brian: now look for every show to be scrutinize on every side. they will go back through samantha bee's shows. if you look at her background, she is up for four major awards every year. that wasn't the only time there
5:36 am
was something vial on her show. when people back, reads podcasts and tweets, and they will look at that everybody's background and current shows are up for scrutiny. two sponsors already left her show. i just don't foe where this ends. i'm not saying anything she did is right, i worry where this will end. >> because you believe in the first amendment. you believe that people should say whatever they want as long as -- brian: if you have a bad day. she taped that. >> she taped it. what that means, everybody heard it. everybody looked at it again. they could have changed anything and they liked it and they let it go. you know what? tbs has said, you know, that she took right action. i agree with roseanne. the problem with roseanne, why did they have have to cancel the whole show? there are all those people who were punished, cameramen, script writers, actors, because of what
5:37 am
one person did. that tells me something deeper. it was a whole concept. number one scripted show in broadcast, we'll send it down the river because it is pro-trump. brian: talk a little bit of legal stuff. an did i mccabe is in additional trouble. legal expert say he might be, might have a criminal issue on hand. what is it about andrew mccabe? >> he lied at least four times. he lied not only to members. department of justice and lied to the inspector general. he had a chance to take it back. he did not. that didn't happen to martha stewart. that didn't happen to roger clemens in. you didn't get a chance to take it back. this guy needs to be indicted. brian: comey said they could look at something criminal. >> that's why. they're looking at perjury, five years in prison for lying to the fbi. guys, this is real easy. this is a no-brainer, but what
5:38 am
bringing comey into it tells me? is that comey and the mccabe were each other's -- pete: they were at odd as little bit. >> comey told me to leak it. i never let him leak it. now we have comey, who is friends with the prosecutor and comey is now saying, you know what? i didn't give him permission to leak anything. he lied to me. pete: someone is going under the bus. >> this is the end of andrew mccabe. ainsley: you said your mom watch. >> hi, mom. ainsley: not too long ago your mama was giving birth to you this weekend. >> stop it. ainsley: we have something special for you. come on out. happy birthday. >> oh, thank you.

ainsley: but judge jeanine. tonight jeanine will do. brian: i look forward to the book. >> thank you. thanks, guys. brian: would you toss to jillian. >> and now jillian will give us the weather. no. jillian is going to give us the news. brian: almost perfect. jillian: happy birthday to you, judge. fabulous. get you caught up on some of your headlines we're following. starting with this, an illegal immigrant deported multiple times now facing the death penalty. the penalty phase underway after he was found guilty of 2014 murder of a border patrol agent. he was gunned down in front of his family after sandoval tried to rob him. >> [inaudible]. jillian: sandoval's alleged accomplice is awaiting trial for the same charges. a man is hit in the head with an axe driving down the
5:40 am
highway. take a look. you can see the hole in the cracked windshield after it sliced right through. the canadian man passed out. he has no idea where the axe came from. how about this? not the first time this happened to the guy. 10 years ago a steel rod went through his driver's side window. incredible. you remember the 30-year-old jobless man who was ei can haved from his parents home? finally will be hitting the road. michael rotundo is seen packing up his boxes. he has to be out by noon. his parents asked him to leave five times, offering him money to find a new place. he didn't. they went to court. he plans to appeal even though he claims to have no interest in living in his parents' home. pete: more going on that we don't know about. ainsley: remain in court a long time to keep talking about it. brian: if you wanted to find janice dean, where would we go? ainsley: probably outside with everyone else. janice: wave, everybody.

5:46 am
of "the next revolution," host of crowd pac, former director of strategy for british prime minister david cameron. hey, steve. what's your reaction to all this? >> it is hilarious to watch all the people suddenly up in arms about this allegedly free and fair trade system we have. we don't have free and fair trade now. the rules on trade have been rigged against the u.s. for many, many decades, not just years. just look at the eu on average the tariffs that the eu places on american exports to the eu are nearly twice as high as those we impose for us comeses to the eu. take cars, it is four times as high. when we sell our cars to europe, they charge 10%. when they sell their cars to us, we charge 2.5%. so, it is never been fair and finally we've got a president fighting back. of course they don't like it. pete: is there any prospect of
5:47 am
them actually lowering? that is the best one, get rid of tariffs all together? >> it's a negotiation and that's what we're seeing from this president. all along what he say on trade is completely reasonable which is i believe in trade. i believe in free trade but it's got to be fair. the word he keeps using reciprocal. he uses that word the whole time. if you put tariffs on our stuff, we'll put tariffs on your stuff. if you don't like it, let's have a negotiation, lower them together. brian: final thought. i was watching the bbcdoes america realize they have 20% of the world's trade but people that they're putting tariffs on have 80%? so if they answer us back, with retribution, are you concerned? >> no, because if you look at the trade balances within that, usually we're on the losing end of that, with the tariffs being imposed at moment, with the eu. they sell much more stuff to us than we do to them. i think in the end, they're
5:48 am
going to realize, this will harm them if they don't actually realize that making the rules fair, which is all that president trump wants, and make a level playing fields is in their interests just as much as it is in ours. ainsley: all right. steve hilton. thanks for joining us. your show, the sunday nights. steve have a great weekend. coming up next, thompson square debuts their new song, a love like think, but first, bill hemmer, he will be working three hours a day soon. >> very soon. you come and join okay? we'll need you. that band sounds great by the way. really good stuff there. we will hear music. oh my, right? on the economy, we're cooking folks, breaking news for you and your family. big day for north korea, a letter goes to the white house. what is in the letter. outrage going on the samantha bee comment. will she hang on or be roseanne?
