>> the department of justice slamming the city of philadelphia forgiven the free pass to an illegal immigrant accused of a heinous crime on a child ignoring and base detainer on ramon vazquez who is serving 20 years in prison for the rape of a child. the man who let him go, the same mayor you see here, the mayor that danced when his city was successfully declared a sanctuary. here to weigh in on this is martina white.

is this as jarring to you to see the story? this person never should have had the opportunity to do this and you have this child who is a victim? >> it absolutely is and it is unfortunate because this what it comes down to is a public safety issue, not necessarily a democrat or republican issue. democrats for many years have been against sanctuary cities, we have seen president barack obama's administration against sanctuary cities, pennsylvania governor ed rendell against century city and philadelphia's former mayor reversed sanctuary policy but i think mayor kenny is going against the grain of what people across the country want to see happen. they want them gone. they are tired of it and this is a prime example of why these policies are so dangerous.

rob: the former philly mayor tried to make the sanctuary city realize it wasn't the way it reversed that decision in this new mayor took it back to sanctuary and president obama -- is this part of the trump derangement, trying to do the opposite of the president in every single facet to the point they take it too far like this? >> i think it comes down to logic and the idea that you can allow illegal immigrants who committed crimes in our city to be released into the street and expect them to not commit another crime which is exactly what happened instead of the mayor and philadelphia being able to abide by federal immigration requests to hold this person, make sure they were not released, come and pick him up.

it doesn't make any sense and that is what is mind-boggling for a lot of regular people concerned about their safety and about the future of the country. we went to see comprehensive immigration reform and we have not seen that. rob: most republicans don't see the logic of this and most pragmatic democrats don't either but what happens to the leadership of the party? nancy pelosi made comments that we need to protect these people, this big abolish ice movement, they want to reorganize the entire organization, stop deporting people illegally, these are criminals committing crimes. where did democrats go so far left on this? >> it is really a shame. you hit it on the head. the democrats and far left decided to come along to the point they are defending illegal immigrants who are committing crimes.

not just immigrants who are undocumented, these are persons who have committed a crime, they are under arrest and still being released into the community. instead of having federal authorities be notified and apprehend these suspects in a safe environment, and the police department instead of reaching back out into the community, having to actually re-apprehend the individual who in this incident had committed another crime. rob: what happened to this poor child and philadelphia is the responsibility of that mayor. we will see how he responds to this. jillian: dropping the pledge of allegiance, a school backtracking on that plan after massive back lash from the community. carly shimkus has the school's explanation as they face the

swain says the defendant received a free pass from the city of philadelphia under the part of prisons. the secretary of homeland security kirstjen neilsen had this to say. >> it could have been prevented and should have been prevented. we know the american people better. rob: the hog farmer questions over the disappearance of mollie tibbetts admits to taking a polygraph test. fbi agents asked him if he had anything to do with the 20-year-old's disappearance, he told them no but doesn't know the results of the test. he denied knowing anything about molly and repeatedly said he thinks some guy probably has her. molly went missing three weeks ago while on a run in iowa. the reward is $316,000. 20,000 people ordered to evacuate as a massive wildfire

jillian: california lawmakers taking up a bill that could make the state the first amended medication abortion as required health service by 2022. is this a good idea or slippery slope for college students? here to discuss is our panel, a student at california state university, radiologist doctor nicole safire and brad nicholas, an attorney. is this a good idea? >> thank you. providing abortion on college campuses is not a good idea. this is not what universities are for. they should focus on educating students. campusreform.org reports on universities taking on politically charged issues and this is another example of the california legislature pushing their political agenda on university students. not only that, starting in 2022, it leaves the door open for taxpayer dollars and student

fees to fully fund the entire program and they are escalating the private donations that will be provided for the beginnings of this bill, would not be enough to be funding part of this bill. jillian: is this something schools should be doing versus focusing on education of the student? >> schools have the right to do that. the question is do they have the right -- the right to choose is woven in the fabric of our society and this is a logical extension of that. jillian: let's look at a statement from california democratic senator, the author of the bill, quote, no woman makes the choice lightly but when you need it you need to have access. for people who don't know, share your story. >> medical abortion should not be confused with plan b which is

available in ending machines, the morning-after pill you take after unprotected sex to decrease the risk of developing unwanted pregnancy. medical abortion is a 2-step medication you take after pregnancy is confirmed. my concerns are you take these medications, you have to get prescription, sign something saying you are taking this. it causes you to abort whatever is produced and there are some risks with it but they are rare. if taken the right way and under medical supervision. jillian: you got pregnant at a young age. telus part of your story. >> at the age of 17 i became pregnant in high school and i made the decision myself to have the baby, a single parent in my senior year of college and it was difficult. there are a lot of people when

they have a child in college end of dropping out. i was not one of them but people do that. i won't get into the politics of it but there are abortion medications, services at college campuses, this is just another one. they are talking about public funding of it, it sounds like they need private funds for abortion medication with you agree with it or not. >> most of the funding issues in college campuses would be considered private funding and most federal funding with this kind of statute is directed to the students themselves. there are billions of dollars that go through research and develop grants. jillian: let's look at this, 2.75 million women in the us used this drug since 2000 according to the manufacturer. it begs the question, if this so accessible for girls, for women in college, does that take away

part of the decisionmaking on behalf of the woman? you always have repercussions from your actions? >> one thing that is important to remember is although the supporters of the bill say they need more access to abortion there is no lack of access to abortion in california and within an average of 6 miles, public university campus in california so this speaks to the fact this bill is unnecessary and education should be focusing on academics. jillian: thanks for joining us, we will be following this. 39 after the hour, denied, an employee at a cell phone store refusing to help a police officer. what happened to that worker coming up. mike pence outlining the mission of the new space force. >> it is not enough to merely

jillian: is this necessary? >> i think the time is right. you could question whether we would do this now or in two or three years but what the apartment of defenses done has shown great awareness, the methodical approach, you would be proud of it if you read through the document, four steps to use current authorities and we have to wait for congress to come in with legislation to establish the space force. rob: sounds like russia and china escalated this issue and brought us to the point we need this kind of protection because we are so dependent on satellites and can't be put in a position we are vulnerable to attacks on our satellites from foreign actors. >> there is nothing we do that doesn't rely on space from gps navigation, gps weapons deliveries, we rely on space. the russians and chinese have watched as the last 20 years,

they know that and their moves in space have been significant. what we watched them do, orbiting with our satellites, the things we suspect they are moving into have got to be countered, not just counters but take the lead as mike pence said yesterday. jillian: how do you see this happening? timeline for this? how long might this take? >> the phased approach, the part of the fence is rounding up the people in each to permit of defense services and they are going to call this space operational force and they will use that as the foundation for what will become the space force which becomes a service. two of the things they do is streamline acquisition, opportunity to not just streamline it but take the lead and develop the assets we need in space. the third major step is

establishing a combatant command where we start thinking about space. those three things the department of defense can do with the president's signature to establish this unified command plan, that will establish the foundation and give congress the legs they need to give legislation in the next two years. jillian: pretty wild. rob: the secretary of defense was against this idea and now he is for, at least everyone is in sync. we will see how it develops, thanks for your time this morning. 49 minutes after the hour. they are known for violent crimes and brutal murders but ms 13 gang members are not all that bad. >> ms 13 members i have been following are working after school jobs, living with their parents, they get around long island on bicycles. rob: the new video that is spiking outrage online.
