individual mandate the entire law falls apart. and he's overturned it. although nothing changes with obamacare right now. president trump was at the white house last night and had this to say about the ruling on obamacare. listen. >> i believe we're going to get really good health care, exciting things happened over the last 24 hours. and if everybody is smart, because behave a lot of democrats here tonight and i'm very happy about that. people don't realize that i have a lot of friends who are democrats. and we have democrats here. and if the republicans and the democrats get together, we are going to end up with incredible health care which is the way it should have been from day one. and it's going to happen. it now has a chance to happen. >> i'm skeptical. i'm very skeptical because he's talking about democrats say i i have a lot of friends who are democrats. that might be true. republicans and democrats see the world very differently right now if terms of what the role of government should be. and i have a hard time believing

that all of these advocates of government-run health care, many who want a single pairs medicare with are going to jump on board with free market ideas, ditches a mandate. maybe trump can do it. but that would be some deal. >> there's some pressures on republicans. >> some deal. >> the republicans have an increased majority in the senate, they have the white house. but there's pressure on democrats taking over the house. and remember democrats sold the law at the beginning under false pretenses. we'll get to that in a moment. but barack obama now is reacting because his whole legacy is on the line. he says on noi faib facebook yot have heard about this. he goes on to say that as this decision makes its way through the courts, which will take months if not years the law remains in place and will likely stay that year.

he's wainging on the months and the years it has to get to the supreme court and between now and then the democrats hope to continue to stall. but if they stall and we still have uncertainty, as premiums is going up, it's a disastrous situation. >> it is a really bad situation. the federal government should not be allowed to force citizens to buy a product. never should have to begin with. but to your point, jedidiah, donald trump the citizen in new york knew a lot of democrats that he got along with. president donald trump in the white house facing the fake news media and the resistance and hatred of democrats, how many democratic friends does he really have. you have to have allies politically. >> so the democrats want mandates and government controls and price controls and republicans want choice, transparency and competition. maybe there's a deal to be had somewhere where you can protect

preexisting conditions but wring prices down. there's almost no agreement on health care. somebody is going to win, somebody is going to lose. >> and it's not just about health care, it's about the role of government. you're talking about government when it comes to every issue. you're talking about across the board. health care is the issue on the table right now. democrats believe in large part that the government has the responsibility to do what many on the right feel is the responsibility of individual citizens and also you want to protect the private companies and the premarket. >> and who is the new chief of staff? mick mul mulvaney. he's not going to want to cut some deal that gives it all away. >> sure thing. >> here's something the media will not be talking about. you have chuck schumer saying mr. president you get the pinocchios. they are not talking about that now all of the sudden the

washington post and others are going after the federal judge. look at these headlines, legal experts rip the judge. you can see it right there. rationale for declaring obamacare law invalid. judge who halted the affordable cair about is a conservative favorite. every time the federal court is weaponnized to stop donald trump they're saving freedom and democracy. federal judge saves us from trump instituting the travel ban. you could name five, six, seven things that have happened in the last two years, a liberal federal judge out in san francisco has blocked something in the president's agenda and i can find you dozens of headlines where people in the mainstream media say, thank god. >> you got to respect the court when the court agrees with them. it's the court. you can't have the president beating up on the court. and then suddenly the court

issues something they disagree with and it's like, well, this judge is bias. it's amazing. if you want to make the criticism about the court in general, you can make it. but you can't be one-sided about it. >> this is a pete news alert. >> here we go. >> ed henry wakes up this morning and realizes that his colleagues at the "the new york times" are biased. they're all biased. >> news alert. >> there's nothing that they do that's down the middle or fair or balanced. absolutely nothing. if there's a court ruling that validates liberals, they love it. look at the restoration of the constitution. if this happens it's one rogue judge in texas backing up -- outside the constitutional balance. it's totally absurd. every day that's the way it goes. >> and chief justice roberts went after the president on that issue. the media was cheering on a conservative in chief justice

roberts because it looked like he was anti-trump. >> they cheer on a conservative when they think that that conservative defies conservative principle. there's a big story that we mentioned yesterday that was just starting to develop in terms of the pentagon pressing charges against an american war hero. >> mat theu goldstein, a green beret, now potentially facing death charges for killing a taliban bomb maker. we've heard now more and more from family members. we're going to hear today from his lawyer as well as his wife. because he's in the threat of losing his life for serving his country and killing someone who was killing americans. we heard from the mother of one of the maries who was killed by the bomb maker. this is what the mother had to say. our rules that we have to follow are not rules that the taliban

follows. so why punish or guy for something that the enemy is doing to us. and this story percolate to the top because the pentagon is deciding to prosecute this green beret. which has a lot of us looking sideways saying if he did his job and killed a bad guy, how in the world are we now prosecuting him. that's what this mom is saying. >> and that woman that you mentioned, the mother is the mother of starting serm my mcquery. we want to mention him and honor him. we want too talk about the case that's happening now. but as pete said yesterday, two marines were killed in cold blood by this bomb maker in afghanistan and then basically you have this war hero step forward saying, i'm going to kill the bomb maker. i don't want him to kill any more of my comrades. he at marylan admitted it in anw

and was honest, now they're jumping on him. >> i heard from a lot of members of our military who were outraged. you know what, you have to be able to defend these people who stand up for us and their decisions they make, they're in the line of fire every single day. to treat him like this when he came forward saying this is what happen sets a terrible precedent. so many members of the military in my twitter time line, e-mails saying this is a super important story. this is a dangerous precedent to set. and they were uncomfortable with the idea that this guy was being criminalized at the time and no one was taking the time to see what was going through his mind at the time. >> this guy days earlier had been recognized with a silver star, potentially a distinguish service cross. one step below the medal of honor. this guy has done things in come

you heard about the new showdown over obamacare. what's next for your health care. back we'll break it down life, next. ♪ ♪

a new showdown is brewing over obamacare. this is a big one. a federal judge ruling it unconstitutional. so what happened next and how does it affect your coverage. let's bring in the expert, dr. nicole saphier. we saw you last weekend and now you're back. you were on the couch. i think we're not going to need emergency surgery here. there was something wrong with the graphics and now they're back. the laws provisions remain in effect right now. some people are thinking it's

unconstitutional and ripped apart but in the short term nothing is changing. >> for anyone out there on the affordable care act coverage or signed up in the 2019 enrollment period, nothing is chienging right now. it's big breaking news out of texas but everything is the same. the individual mandate and everything falling under the aca was deemed unconstitutional. >> let's look at the mandate. this is where the revenue is coming in. to pay for poor people who didn't have coverage, we were going to force other to buy insurance. here's the revenue that was coming in. doesn't look like there was that much coming in. >> this is why it was a weak attempt at socialized medicine. they called a individual mandate and tax penalty to pay for the subsidized health care. people are upset about that because no one bought into the concept. and that pay for it all and

that's why we saw rising premiums and deductibles. >> the supreme court upheld the individual mandate during the obama administration in that 5-4 decision with chief justice roberts being the key one and he said because it was a tax because of the commerce clause in the constitution. but then under president trump congress eliminates the tax penalty last december. >> the aca has been on the chopping block twice. it's been upheld twice. however now the tax has been repealed. that's why it's seen as unconstitutional. you no longer have a tax penalty. but this hasn't been heard in front of the kavanaugh court. although kavanaugh has stayed tight lipped op how he feels about the affordable act, he does follow the law. and without the tax penalty i think he's going to favor it and say it's unconstitutional. >> preexisting conditions.

that's something that people are concerned about. there's a high percentage of people, 20%, 25% who have preexisting conditions. what's going to happen to them ? >> this is a big issue. 27% of adult americans has preexisting conditions. this is why this is contentious and this is why this debate tests people's civility. what we need for people with preexisting conditions is not the affordable care act and we need to get out of that microcosm. we need true medical reform. we need people to make sure they're making good life choices and republicans, this is going to be key for them in 2020. they need to figure out how to take care of americans. >> front and center in 2020. dr. nicol nicole saphier apprece your insight. 7-year-old girl from guatemala died in the dustdy of

netherlands. he's accused of stabbing sara to death. the suspect was her roommate. she told her friend that he recently threatened to kill three people. jed? the tra tragic death of a 7-year-old girl grabbing headlines across the nation and this morning it remains under investigation. the girl's father denying that she hasn't been giving food and water in days and telling the consulate that they have no complains about his treatment by the border agents. >> yet some on the left are pointing the blame at customs and border patrol. >> trying to blame the victim after a 7-year-old girl from guatemala died in the custody of the u.s. border patrol. >> that happened in the united states and we are not caring for the least among us. it is outrageous. >> the only way to deter people is to be even more monstrous than whatever it is they're

fleeing. and that is what the trump administration seems determined to do. >> thanks, chris hayes. so what do we know and ask this death being used as a political football. a senior policy director with the conservative partnership is here to weigh in. thank you for being here, rachel. a tragic story. no one takes away from the tragedy of losing a 7-year-old. yet as the father of the girl said, he said, i have no complaints about how border patrol agents treated him and his daughter. what do you make of this case? >> well i think what happened was tragic and it was awful. but i think what we're not hearing is that it was also avoidable and that's a conversation that we can't have in this mainstream media. we can't talk about how our policies at the border, the asylum policies and the catch and release policies incentivize people to take these incredibly

dangerous risks. when you look at the fact that border patrol last month alone stopped 62,000 people at the border and these were people that were putting themselves in tremendous physical peril but exposing themselves to sex trafficking, drug trafficking and this is the result of the policy to incentivize these people to come here and take dangerous risks. until we can talk about that, we're going to face tragic outcomes like we saw this week. >> it's horrific to me, the vilify daitio occasion of the bl agents. many assumed that the border patrol agents were at fault. we have a statement that says, in this case unfortunately we did not encounter the child sooner. traveling north into the united states is extremely dangerous. please, present yourselves at a port of entry and seek to enter legally and safely. your response to that. >> that's exactly right.

we're tantamount to a humanitarian crisis at the border because people know they can come and cross the border and be released into the interior of the country. until we can get a handle on that again we're going to see these tragic outcomes. but again you don't see the media reporting this. you saw this again when we saw the migrant caravan at the border. you saw the media gloss over statements from dhs saying, there were aggressive assaults at the border by primarily single men. you see them sensationalizing people putting themselves in harm's way. we needs to enforce our laws at the border so people don't put themselves in harm's way. >> i want to go to the human aspect of this. i know border patrol agents and folks who serve in i.c.e. can you imagine a 7-year-old man

or woman who works on the border receiving a boy or girl and not doing anything to help that child. we're on thwe do things differe. why do they use this none the less to paint border patrol agents like they don't care. >> we see this all of the time particularly when it comes to illegal immigration. the press doesn't like donald trump, his agenda and they're going to sensationalize anything to make that point. it does a disservice. these are americans with american values. we help those in need and you seaboarder patrol do this all of the time. but again when they're facing 62,000 people trying to cross illegally, they're coming crossing the desert, running from traffickers. this is a humanitarian crisis. we have to enforce the laws at the border so people come here legally and safely and don't put themselves in harm's way. >> hopefully we'll get some

answers to what happened here. it would be great if many in media didn't rush to judgment wfer we had the answers. >> thank you, rachel. we're getting a look at the memo that the former fbi director james comey used to brief president donald trump on that russian dossier. andy mccarthy has the most revealing part about it and what it means to james comey as he heads back to capitol hill tomorrow. this little boy seeing snow for the first time. the adorable video is coming up. ♪ ♪ (honking) when your craving strikes, you need your wing nut.

as to not want to find out who paid for the dossier? >> yeah i've really been taken aback by the number of things that people didn't want to know in this investigation. it is the federal bureau of investigation. the sort of thing that if you're going to get -- if you're going to present something toe somebody that you're asking them to make critical decisions about, granting a warrant or briefing the president, you might want to be able to answer basic questions. and it seems to me that that's not only a pretty basic question but in the two-page summary that we've now seen, the fbi takes pain to say the fbi did not fund the source, meaning steele. to say that to the president or to say it to anyone implies that you think that it's pretty important who did the funding otherwise why bring it up at all.

>> we're getting a look. >> the funding was done by the clinton campaign. that seems to me to be an important fact. >> you wouldn't know if it if you look at the document that's now released that president-elect donald trump -- to your point, you've researched it. the source is an executive of a private business intelligence firm and a former employee of a friendly intelligence service who has been compensated for previously reporting over the last three years. the source collected this information on behalf of private clients and was not compensated for it by the fbi. so private clients is a long way from political opponents. >> dnc. >> it is. but i would like to just make a larger point about this. people hear about fbi investigations and naturally, because this is the usual context, they think about law

enforcement and investigative integrity and you know, what you present to the court in making sure that you don't get political influence and all of that. that's exactly appropriate 90% of fbi investigations. national security investigations, counter intelligence investigations by contrast are done for the president. that's the purpose of them. they are done in order to help the president perform his national security responsibilities. so if you're going to play close to the vest with a court because you're worried about what might eventually get disclosessed in litigation, i get that. but if you're briefing the president on a national security investigation in counter intelligence when the whole point of counter intelligence is to inform the president so he can perform his mission, why would you play close to the vest with the facts on that. >> andy, comey is about to head back to the hill tomorrow. and you know, we've heard a lot

of i don't know, i don't remember, i don't recall from him. what do they need to do tomorrow to get some answers from him? >> jedidiah, you know, we're asking the wrong person. and i feel like a broken record on this. there has not been a day since his first day in office that president trump hasn't had the wherewithal to release the documents that would give us some light on this story. jim comey is a very smart, very disciplined, very articulate witness who will come in prepared to say what he thinks needs to be said and what he wants to say. and he's become very partisan in recent days about the need to defeat trump and all of that stuff. the only way that you can control a witness like that is to walk him through the documents, which stops somebody from being able to stray and actually force forces them to sy within the four corners of what you want to ask about. if you don't have the documents,

i don't know how you go about this. it's really not the way you would go about an investigation. you know, to bring the people in, let them give speeches and then hope some day that you get the documents. >> don't allow him to turn it into an extended book tour. thank you, andy. >> appreciate you time. >> my pleasure. turning now to headlines for you, joe biden topped a new poll in iowa. 32% of likely democratic voters say they pick the former vice president as their top choice. the next closest, bernie sanders with 19%. the associated press reports biden has been wrestling whether he is too old to run. advisers are suggesting that the 76-year-old came up with a younger vp like o'rourke. davidson appeared on saturday night live hours after a disturbing post on social

capacity magazine that's insane. but i think there's a bigger issue and the bigger issue is the general public, the general citizens of new jersey, 1.3 million gun owners, legal gun owners are now have to abide by this same rule costing new jersey probably 150 to $200 million. there's 8 million guns and probably another 2 million semi-automatic rifles that are now restricted to 10-round magazines or less. and many of those guns, they can't be altered. >> so you're a private citizen, you can't own more than 10-round magazines. if you're an off-duty law enforcement and you have a ten-round magazine you're not allowed to carry it and you could be subject to the law. >> more than ten rounds. >> most magazines are. >> most magazines, .9

millimeters, they're 13 and 1, 14 and 1. they're illegal. for off-duty cops they're illegal which is a danger to the cops. what happens if they get involved in a shooting and a prosecutor wants to make an issue out of it? he can prosecute them for a crime. >> for intervening. let's say an off-duty police officer is taking his kids to school, he is off duty, has this ammunition, he jumps in to save kids and they would say wait a minute with he didn't follow the rules. >> it's a law. which is worse. it's one thing if you violate a rule of the department. but this is a law, a criminal law. and it makes you then a criminal. so this is just crazy. and i think the attorney general is trying to deal with it. i think they're trying to do a revision in the law but this is something that's gone under the radar. >> who do you blame for this?

years about repealing and replacing obamacare. they may be succeeding at repealing it because of what president trump did in that tax cut where he pushed republicans on the hill to actually rip out the individual mandate which is sort of the guts of the affordable care act. now a federal judge in texas says it's unconstitutional without the individual mandate. but the big question is what do you replates it with. >> i'm worried because republicans have not done their due diligence on this in the past. and people on the right keep saying you have to have a plan. you can't repeal something and not have a proposal. people will lose their health insurance if this goes south. people will expect someone to take charge. you would think republicans should be the adults in the room. >> there's not a lot of rationality about health care. but last night president trump jumping on the news talking about the opportunity. >> i believe we're going to get

really good health care. exciting things happened over the last 24 hours and if everybody is smart, because we have a lot of democrats here tonight and i'm very happy about that. people don't realize that i have a lot of friends who are democrats. and if the republicans and the democrats get together, we are going to end up with incredible health care which is the way it should have been from day one. and it's going to happen. it now has a chance to happen. >> so he's talking about trying to bring democrats and republicans together. i think jedidiah is right, the responsibility is on the republicans responsibility to govern. but the democrats are the ones who crafted obamacare to begin with it, sold it on lies, keep your doctor, keep your plan and now it's falling apart and they're saying it's all on donald trump. democratic plan is medicare for all. "the wall street journal," when i was covering bernie sanders in 2016, they looked at it saying it was going to cost

$15 trillion to pay for medicare for all. you never hear that price tag from democrats. and "the wall street journal" also said sanders had a plan to raise taxes. he was going to raise your taxes by 34% to pay for medicare for all and other socialist plans. you're going to see your taxes go like this and federal spending go like this with medicare for all. the democrats' plan is shaky but the republicans do have to come up with something. and there seems to be a lot of ground between failing obamacare and $15 trillion for medicare for all. in the middle there the republicans could find something. >> i agree with everything that you said. >> that's a scary situation. >> it is. the reason why it won't happen is nancy pelosi's job in 2019 is to try to take on trump and tee him up for whoever the 2020 can date is running against him. there's almost no ground where they'll want to work together constructively. you pointed out properly on health care, not a lot of common

ground between the republicans and democrats. >> not a lot of common ground or anything but particularly on issues that you have to determine what the role of government is. and it's interesting, they never tell you what things cost and they never tell you how they want to pay for it. you don't just pay for it. the money has to come from somewhere. and sh was making the argument that it would be more cost effective. it will not. don't just talk about the cost. talk about the government getting in control of your health care. quality of care goes down. these are important things to talk about and then say you know what? this is what will happen. the government is running the show but here's the alternative plan of what happens when we put you in charge. >> the president mentioned last night let's find common ground in 2019 on health care. but in the mea meantime they'vet another priority, avoiding a

partial government shutdown which will happen at the end of this week without a deal. the president holding firm on what he wants, $5 billion for the wall. that's a down payment. that's just part of the deal. and you saw democrats in the oval office. what got lost is the donald trump draw as line. the democrats were saying we're not giving you anything. they were not giving an inch. >> nancy pelosi is not doing it. they're not prioritizing this border wall at all. and i think it's important for president trump to stand firm on this. because as i said many time, this is a key issue for him. one of the reasons he won is because people thought he was going to have the follow through the get it done. >> this is going to be our armageddon. can we break it down? eddied it so well last week. i quot to try. the reality is we're hearing that this shut jownl is going to be armageddon, it's terrible, we

can't do it. let's get to the facts. how many shutdowns have we had in each administration. look here. i'm not good at math but this basic bar graph tells me we're not outside of the median here of the amount of shutdowns that have occurred. look at ronald reagan, a guy who stood for less government. had eight government shutdowns during his presidency. less than one here for president trump, obama, bush zero. we're not outside the norm right now as far as sutdown. this is an important aspect of this. we talk about shutdown. it's not a full shutdown. most of the government is funded to include these departments, the defense department, the va, medicare, medicaid and social security, as ed pointed out yesterday, the folks in congress take care of themselves before they take care of anybody else. the troops are getting paid, vets are getting paid, social security checks are going to happen, airports are open, tsa a

working. ultimately most of the government funded and not shut down. estimated 400,000 essential employees would work without pay. now that means they won't get paid immediately but they'll get back pais. pay. they're going to get paid. is it worth getting the wall and border security as exchange. kelly and conwakellyanne conwaye government needs to spend the money. >> we have been spending billions of dollars helping other nations protect their borders. it's high time we do it here. he also knows there were 26 democrats in the senate who voted for the secure fences act in 2006 and they were senator joe biden, senator barack obama, senator chuck schumer and senator ding ding ding hillary clinton. so what's happened on the border

since the 2006 secure fences act was voted on. it got worse. >> she's right. bubecause democrats like barack obama and others were supporting the wall. >> you know what, republican politicians need to do that too. democratic politics come out with the scare tactics. this stuff doesn't get pointed out. and the armageddon gets thrown out. you're talking about our border security, a threat to our national security. that has to be prioritized. you havnow is the time to force. >> play the hits, biden, obama, schumer, hillary all for the wall in 2006. it's a great point. i'll repeat it because great points are worth repeating. if the problem is getting worse, why are you now not for it. it has gotten worse. this president is doing what he can. we talked about health care to begin with.

202 looks like it's going to be democrats wanting to talk about health care because there will be no solution and president trump wanting to talk about sovereignty and border security. we'll see where the voters are. >> i'm not sure pete and i have agreed that much. >> i'm a little frightened. >> i'm frightened of governor mike huckabee. a polic police officer is hd killed while responding to a crash on a major highway. officer jason quick was hit while crosses i-95 in north carolina. he died at the hospital. >> officer quick was an outstanding officer. he loved his job. great attitude. just a good person. >> quick was on the force for a year and a half. it is unclear if the driver involved will be charged. former fbi director james comey returning to capitol hill tomorrow to answer more questions. andrew mccarthy joined us earlier weighing in on the

hungary as refugees. we were in a camp for ten months. we followed the law. my son was murdered by a previously deported illegal alien who was due to be released in april of 2020. this insanity needs to stop because we do not need more criminals on the streets and living in california being a sanctuary state, i wonder if nancy pelosi or chuck schumer would like to take in the murderer so he can live next to them. which one of their family members would they sacrifice. enough of sacrificing our children, our citizens to protect illegal ai aliens who ae breaking our laws by invading our country. >> we see your t-shirt saying permanent family paying separath a picture of your son. this is searing for you and many other angel moms who have to deal with this. talk a little bit more. you mentioned nancy pelosi and chuck schumer. they had a big showdown with the

president in the oval office and the president said he would be willing to shut the government down if it means fighting for more worde border security mone. it got quite heated. what was your reaction to the president standing up to these two democrats but what's also your message to pelosi and schumer? >> i am so proud of president trump. he's trying to keep the promise of his campaign to build the border wall. a country without a border is not a country. it just endangerdangers us. when i saw the oval office, chuck summer and nancy pelosi, you can see the animosity of pelosi, the rehearsed talk that she gave. and chuck schumer co condescendg and disrespectful. president trump said he would take full responsibility for

shutting down the government. americans are very proud of our president and no daca, no amnesty in this deal either. if they're not willing to work with the president, then we need to shut the government down. and i'm sorry for those that are being affected by look at my family and thousands of other angel families that are permanently separated and permanently affected by this lack of keeping sovereignty of our nation. >> agnes thank you for being here. so sorry for your loss. thank you for all that you do. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. meanwhile another tough story, a former agree beret could face the death penalty after admitting to killing a taliban bomb maker. he went after the bad guys. >> did you kill the taliban bomb maker? >> yes. >> his attorney says the army is betraying his client. he joins us live next.

mom. ♪ welcome back. a serious story here. a decorated war hero who fought for our country overseas now a suspected war criminal. former green beret matt goldstein could face the death penalty from our government after he admitted to killing a taliban bomb maker while overseas in 2010. a confession he made right here on fox news. >> did you kill the taliban bomb maker? >> yes. >> willingly offered up these details. >> right. >> the army reopened the case after that interview and after he interviewed with the cia. now officially charging goldstein with murder. joining me now, the civilian

defense counsel for goldstein, phil stackhouse. headlines are easy, titles are easy. first of all, tell us about your client, major matt theu goldstein. >> matt is one of the finest people i've ever met. he's been in the army now for 16 years. a west point graduate. served an an infantry officer early on in his career and then moved into the special forces community and that's where he served clear up until around 2015. >> i was reminded yesterday i actually met matt goldstein in duncan hunter's office a couple of years ago. quality individual no doubt. he received the silver star for tracking down a sniper targeting his troops, assisted a wounded afghan soldier. he was recommended to be upgraded the the distinguished service cross but all of that wiped away because he's accused of killing a taliban bomb maker

who had killed americans in the past. he admitted to that saying he did it. talk to us about his defense of that action. >> let me tell you two things. first about the actions you just described. you know, matt is one of the most humble people i've ever met and he has a chest full of awards for valor. the incident that you just described is a battle where his patrol, it was approximately a 50-man plus patrol was under attack by a superior enemy force and matt engaged the enemy directly calling indirect fire, calling in air support, deploying rifle rockets at the enemy. it was an heroic battle. and matt was recognized for that and it has absolutely nothing to do with the allegations that have been made against him. yet the army with no due process rights afforded to matt rescinded the distinguished

service cross that the secretary of the army had signed and revoked his silver starmed dal. had nothing to do with the allegations facing him today. what's super important to understand is that the army has known about his allegations, these actions that matt described to the central intelligence agency when he was being highly recruited in 201 is. they've known about it since 2011. and they were investigated thoroughly and they were disposed of through an administrative process in 2015, three years ago. and at the conclusion of that process matt was being processed administratively for discharge and concurrently being processed for medical retirement. and then it was after the brett baier interview that they did reopen the investigation. but what's important for the public to understand is there was nothing described in breath's interview that the army didn't have in 2011. >> phil, why? here's a statement from the u.s.

army special operations command spokesman. they say his immediate commander determined that sufficient evidence exist to warrant the preferal of charges against him. if they knew it and if the interview didn't reveal anything new and this was a closed case, why are they going after their way to go after what can only be described as an american hero? >> that's a quhe you would haved have to ask them. the prosecutor intimated to me that they have new evidence. but this allegation happened in 2010, in february of 2010. the army became aware of it in 2011 and it's been investigated the entire time. what new evidence could there possibly be from 2010. that's the question they'll have to answer. >> absolutely. we're going to follow this case. talk to me about the larger double standard. we fight an enemy that hides in the shadows.

yet, when we're faced with catch and release policies where we're releasing people back into the population who will kill americans, somehow we're not allowed to be vicious in our pursuit of the enemy. talk to the challenges guys like matt face on the battlefield. >> well, it is a constant challenge for guys like matt on the battlefield. this isn't the first time this has ever come up in representing military members and court proceedings. what's really important to understand again is that there are -- in matt's particular case, there were three different sets of rules that he was following. u.s. forces afghanistan rules and special operation task force rules. so he had three different masters that he was serving at the time. he wasn't allowed to keep people detained for more than 24 hours. and another important piece for the public to understand is that

when this investigation started by the criminal investigation division of the army, a narrative was put out in the early stages that matt released this taliban bomb maker, walked him back to the house that he was operating on and assassinated him in his house. and that was never said. and the army repeated that narrative consistently through that investigation until matt's administrative hearing when they had a cid agent on the witness stand under oath and admitted that that was a lie in the investigation and they never corrected it. >> they go after these guys. it is -- there's another rule out there, brings many of your guys home as you can and kill as many bad guys in the process. turns out that's how you win wars. thank you for representing matt goldstein. >> matt appreciates the outpouring of support that he's received from his former

teammates and from the public. we have an outstanding charity group helping him called united patriots. it allows us to help heros like matt. >> united american patriots. we are also going to have matt theu goldstein's wife on later on in the program. ken starr joins us live. plus, how are you adulting? millennials need help. so they're getting a crash course on basic life skills in school. michael bowles is here to react live next. he's an eternal symbol of peace around the world. why is gandhi offending so many that his statute has to be removed from one university. tear all of the statutes down. what do you think?

on their parents for financial assistance. more are living with their parents than are living with spouses or roommates and this is because their teachers and parents have failed them. they've failed millennials. >> i don't blame the millennials. i blame the boomers. they confused the fact that parenting is about child rearing. it's about raising up citizens and kids and teaching them instead of putting them in front of an ipad saying good luck. >> this is exactly right. you now have an entire generation. maybe the parents, maybe the teachers meant well but the road to hell is paved with good intentions. now you have a helpless generation that can't balance a checkbook and they don't know that they should get a full-time job. they can't cook or sew. they can't do much of anything at all. this doesn't help society. if they've got to learn how to adult at the age of 35, that's a

incredibly right in saying. look at all of these different investigations and yet there is no public evidence of collusion. so it all began in may a year ago, going on now two years. and the takeaways are this. the russians really interfered really badly. there's no evidence that the election was affected by that. i think it was wasted money. we certainly had to devote an enormous amount of time and energy to see if there was any collusion with the trump agency but there's been no evidence of it. >> but my understanding is that you believe that while there's no evidence of collusion that what the new york prosecutors have found about campaign finance, we had a former campaign official on yesterday saying he doesn't think the charges are serious. i understand you believe the opposite. >> we've got to stay tuned. i don't want to jump to conclusions, ed, and i'm not jumping to any conclusions. but when i read the documents, some of which have been on file

for several months, including the national enquirer parent organization, i think stay tuned. let's don't again jump to conclusions one way or the other. but you're right. there's no evidence right now that suggests that there was a campaign finance violation involving the president himself. i'm just saying keep an open mind. let's get facts out as quickly as possible so we know. >> you've raised an important point amid all of these investigations, let's stick to the facts, let's not jump to conclusions. but you know better than i. watch this clip of democrats and others in the media saying let's jump right to conclusions. >> the case has been built this week that the president was not legitimately elected. >> i believe that this president is dangerous. i think he has undermined our democracy. i believe that he certainly qualifies for impeachment.

when congress then repealed the individual mandate the tax went away. that is the underpinning. like pulling a stepladder from underneath a guy cleaning out his gutter. he falls. that should happen to obamacare. this should go back to the supreme court. i don't like one single federal judge decides a district for the whole country. if he makes a decision, it should go up to the appellate court and ultimately decided at the federal level. let's let it do that when it gets there, john roberts said it was a tax, that saved obamacare in the beginning. without being designated as a tax, even though you can't force people to buy an individual product on the marketplace and that was the crux of what the argument against obamacare was. take that away, it collapses. that is what the judge ruled. he is exactly right. he didn't have a choice, whether he liked it or not. it was a proper legal decision. now it will go back to the

supreme court. pete: governor chimed, and said this may create an opportunity. listen to president trump. >> i believe we'll get really good health care. exciting things happened over the last 24 hours. if everybody is smart. we have a lot of democrats here tonight. i'm very happy about that, people don't realize i have a lot of friends that are democrats. we have democrats here. if the republicans and democrats together we are going to end up with incredible health care which is the way it should have been from day one. it will happen. now has a chance to happen. pete: governor, earnest question. where is the overlap in the few of fixing health care between republicans and democrats right now? >> well there is not a lot. they agree there should be some provision for preexisting conditions. but quite frankly, if you will do that, you can't do that in the private marketplace. that has to be a government subsidy. i have no problem with that.

i think it has to be. no private company can give unlimited coverage for preexisting conditions for a lifetime. they simply don't have any actuarial basis to price that. there is a way to get. there the president is willing to work with the democrats. i think they all can fit in a booth at a waffle house because there aren't many of them, he needs to look for them. this ought to be a problem that can be resolved that transcends the traditional lines. republicans are going to have to recognize the public wants there to be a safety net. so they have to approach it that way. democrats have to approach it that the public also wants it to be something they get to pick and choose what they want, not be forced to buy something they don't want, can't afford, don't need. jedediah: governor, move you over to comey there is a lot of new news coming. returning to capitol hill obviously. going to be asked a lot of questions, hoping for some answers. a memo, annex a, the source is

executive after private business intelligence firm and former employee of a friendly intelligence service compensated for previous reporting over the past three years. the source collected information on behalf of private clients. was not compensated for it by the fbi. what do you make of the wording of that memo, the way it has been described? >> it is the most convoluted way to basically hide the fact that a guy hated donald trump, christopher steele, who got paid through the fusion gps, $9 million to create a phony dossier filled with a bunch of lies, in order to get a fisa judge to go after and wiretap the trump campaign. this stuff is just absolutely outrageous. and when i hear people talk about a witch-hunt, there is a witch-hunt. the problem they're going after the wrong witch. they need to go after the people who use their badges as a way of

pummeling private citizens and individuals who were not suspected of criminal activity. and have created this illusion that there was something wrong done by now president and candidate donald trump. and the people around him. there has been no proof of that. it is absurd. jedediah: do you think you get any answers from him? it's a lot of i don't know? >> no. jedediah: this guy exonerated hillary clinton and her top aides. i don't think we'll get answer we're looking for here. >> i don't think so, jedediah, 250 times behind closed doors he didn't remember anything. when he gets to washington he made need help finding capitol hill. he is the sergeant shults of the fbi. i know nothing. he sits in front of a group of friendly people, he admits. this is bizarre. this is undoing of jim comey, when he said, we got buy with it.

impeachment doesn't do that if we look at history, they're saying to democrats, look, don't do it, politically it would be suicide because what happened back when bill clinton was impeached even though a majority of people wanted it bill clinton was impeached. he remained president. who resigned? newt gingrich of the leader of the gop in the house. the gop lost seats and politically in the house. politically not a good idea. not a good idea for voters. waste of tabs payer time an money to do that. that is not what most voters were voting democrats into the majority of the house to do. jedediah: on that point, leslie, americans seem to agree with you. there was a recent cnn poll on trump impeachment among americans. 43% yes. 50% saying no. so what you're saying tends to be accurate when you poll people what they're saying. i want to get to your second point which is really interesting. do not investigate ivanka emails. why?

>> because basically i will feel it came out the same way it did for hillary clinton which is, there is no crime. this was foolish. it was stupid. it was irresponsible, whatever adjective you want to use, but it is not criminal. a waste of taxpayer time and money. democrats will come out looking like hypocrites especially because they still go, and her emails, and her emails. the shoe would be on the other foot. this again is not what americans who voted the democrats into the majority in the house in january did not vote them to do. pete: ends up being a lot of noise sounds like investigation and resistance as opposed to something proactive. third tip you mentioned, do not abolish i.c.e. we heard a lot of prominent, progressive democrats say that is a bad call? >> oh, very bad call. that is divided among democrats too, various polls will show. it is not abolishing of this organization, you actually do need i.c.e. it is a reformation of that,

going further, what americans want on both sides of the aisle, what i think we all agree you need, there are just different ways to achieve that goal, comprehensive immigration reform. better security of our borders. some people want walls. some people want more border patrol and other cybersecurity uses. attacking the dreamer issue. not separating families. providing a pathway to citizenship. the list goes on, abolishing i.c.e., that doesn't achieve that goal. sometimes my party, people in my party confuse their goal, like you want trump to be one-term president, impeachment is not the way, you want comprehensive immigration reform. abolishing i.c.e. is not the way. jedediah: we'll be waiting to see if they follow your advice, leslie. thanks for joining us. pete: appreciate it. go back to bed. jedediah: california wanted to tax its residents for sending text messages until now. a brand new update. reporter: why don't we start a

>> democrats exploitation of this tragedy is disgraceful and very predictable. they have learned nothing. if you recall, earlier this summer there was another young girl that was became the poster-child for trump derangement syndrome at the border. the 7-year-old, the 2-year-old was allegedly separated from her mother and then the iconic photo appeared on "time" magazine cover, photoshopped with trump looking call last and turned out that the entire narrative withs that applied by the liberal media and democrat was completely false. the father was interviewed in honduras and told the, local reporter there the truth which is that the girl had not been separated. there was no monstrous, barbarian behavior by the border patrol. and in fact, the girl had been snatched by her mother against the father's will and dragged all the way to the border.

so with this newest case, 7-year-old, people like americaky and jim carrey put out atrocious tweet blaming trump's quote saidism at the border, wasting no time exploiting the crisis is. the father and consulate official themselves said that the border patrol acted honorably in this case, did everything they could as soon as the girl exhibited any signs of health problems. in fact just less than 48 hours before her death the father signed a form saying she was in completely good health. there are missing facts but that is not going to get in the way of democrats blaming trump for this, when all of the magnets drawing people here illegally are really things to blame here. as well as whatever happened in that 48 hours between the time that the father said there was nothing wrong with her and then she died. pete: senator americaky went on

or three walls. and you know, we focus on the southern border. but there are problems on the northern border as well i've been reporting on for the last 25 years that have been neglected as well. jedediah: thank you, michelle. pete: what is better than one wall? two or three or four walls. i'm with you michelle. >> take care. pete: another tough story, a former green beret charged in the killing of a taliban bomb-maker years after it took place. now he could even face the death penalty from our own government. his wife joins us life next hour. jedediah: plus, got bacon? we're getting our fix on "fox & friends" with a bacon vending machine. give it a try. >> bacon! ♪ (waves crashing) excedrin sees your relentless, pounding headache even if no one else can.

20-state coalition challenging the affordable care act and essentially, we anticipate that this will be appealed but what happened when the president and this congress eliminated the tax penalty associated with the individual mandate, the affordable care act can no longer stand. the entire thing is unconstitutional. that is essentially what this judge recognized and ruled, without the individual mandate to prop up the affordable care act, the entire affordable care act would be deemed unconstitutional. we do anticipate this will be taken up to the fifth circuit and probably to the u.s. supreme court. pete: leslie, a big decision, bold move by you and other states take head on the constitutionality of obamacare. say you win. say the supreme court sides with your point of view, what is the next step? what is arkansas going to do? what do republicans do to fill the void for people that no longer have access, as flawed as

it may be to obamacare? >> i think it is important right now for arkansans and americans to understand nothing is be changed about their health care at this time, however it is time for congress to act an address preexisting conditions to make sure that americans are taken care of. that the, tone down the skyrocketing costs of healthcare so that way we can have access to it. but we cannot do so in unconstitutional law such as the affordable care act. what it required was this individual mandate forcing everybody to buy insurance they did not need or want. i have always been opposed to it. what the laws and constitution says, congress can regulate commerce but it cannot compel commerce. and that is what the affordable care act has done all these years is to compel commerce by forcing individuals to purchase health insurance. jedediah: leslie, just a quick

question on messaging, democrats will come out strong opposing it. republicans don't say about the health care. are you prepared to take that on pretty strongly, with policy but also with a messaging component? >> absolutely. we do care about health care. and whether it is republicans or democrats, i would say republican attorney general, i absolutely care about americans health care. we want it to be affordable. we want congress to pass law, put a new health care law in place in place of the affordable care act in compliance with our u.s. constitution. that is essentially all we're asking. if you're going to pass something. make sure it is constitutionally sound. the affordable care act never was constitutionally sound. it was rushed through. in a fury several years ago. it is time to correct that. it is time for congress to take action now to correct that to make sure we have affordable health care, take care of americans, those with preexisting conditions but we

should not do so with a law that is not constitutional. pete: this will continue. lessry rutledge, arkansas attorney general. thank you very much. >> sarah carter is here to talk about jim comey's testimony on the hill tomorrow, live. pete: luke's wings, reunited wounded warriors with their loved ones. how you help bring our heroes home this christmas season coming up next. ♪

he had this to say could they work together on this? we'll see. >> i believe we're going to get really good health care. exciting things happened over the last 24 hours. if everybody's smart, because we have a lot of democrats here tonight, i'm very happy about that, people don't realize i have a lot of friends who are democrats. we have democrats here. if the republicans and the democrats get together, we are going to end up with incredible health care, which is the way it should have been from day one. it is going to happen. it now has a chance to happen. jedediah: he sounds very optimistic about the ability of republicans and democrats to come together on this one. i don't know. i'm a little skeptical. ed: they always get along, right? jedediah: one person who does not like this ruling president obama of course. this reflects his legacy, an attack on his legacy. on facebook he posted you might have heard on about a republican lawsuit trying to strike down

the cair in its entirety. this will take months if not years the law will remain in place, likely stay that way. encouraging people to sign up. this obamacare was the signature of his entire time as president. this was his big policy achievement. i think it must be really frustrating for him to see it fall apart. pete: 20 states came together to challenge the constitutional of it. attorney general for arkansas was willing to come on and that. >> if you're going to pass something, make sure it is constitutionally sound. the affordable care act never was constitutionally sound. it was rushed through in ha fury several years ago and it's time to correct that. it is time for congress to take action. we want it to be affordable. we want congress to pass laws and put in a new health care law in place, in place of the affordable care act. that is in compliance with our u.s. constitution.

ed: here is where she's right. this is a law built on lies basically. a democratic president with largely democratic congress trying to jam through obamacare on idea you can keep your plan if you like it. no. it you can keep your doctor if you like it? not necessarily. all this would work. we'll cover millions more people and be able to afford it. premiums wouldn't spike. pete: be cheaper. ed: premiums would come down. remember in the campaign in 2016, then candidate donald trump was raiding off. arizona. 91% up. 89% up. it was outrage just, still continuing we should point out on his watch. so the ball is in the court of congress as that attorney general said, now the court of a republican president. pete: such muddy waters hard to see whose court the ball is actually in. jedediah: i think it is in republican court. they face the challenge -- pete: obamacare was passed. a bad law. never followed through what it was meant to do. they sort of challenged it getting rid of the individual mandate. it might be unconstitutional.

we see what judge roberts down at supreme court. both sides have totally divergent ways to fix it. medicare for all. republicans talk about competition across state lines, transparency in costs not mid of which are silver bullet. this will be a 2020 campaign issue. ed: no doubt. pete: i don't think anybody happens. i appreciate the president's optimism in front of democrats. one or two or three democratic friend he used to have, no longer has about i don't see it being litigated -- jedediah: that might be his friends, doesn't mean they see the role of government the same way. this is big issue, very polarizing issue. you feel the government's responsibility to do this, the government is the most efficient mechanism to do it, that will go head-to-head with free market review. ed: they're more likely frenemies. front and center in 2020 is not just health care but the economy and immigration. the president has a good story to tell on the economy. on immigration it is very mixed bag. he was ahead of the curve saying

we need to crack down on illegal immigration. he hasn't gotten funding for the wall that he wanted. even though he had republicans in the house and senate. he needed 60 votes in the senate. we're shedded for a shutdown because the president is demanding five million dollars in wall funding. that is a down payment. not enough to build the whole wall. but democrats say no, no. jedediah: does anyone feel we're in a episode of "groundhog day"? every few months we have the conversation, republicans talk about border security. same conversation with the debt. we have to care about the debt. all of sudden looming shutdown. oh, let's kick the can down the road. enough is enough. so many stories about threatens national security. so many people concerned about that. if you push this, kick this can down the road you will never get the done. at some point you have to do a partial government shutdown, make sure that border security take as priority. pete: every time the story comes up, establishment republicans

come to the white us, tell the president, you can't do this. this will hurt us. talk about something is else. this is not that moment. this is the only moment he is going to get. i think a temporary pause, as i said yesterday of a couple of weeks to get through christmas and new year's season is fine. jedediah: just that, though. pete: that's it. otherwise, don't give into the shutdown nonsense. most of the government is funded. you will get your mail. airports will be screened. military will be working. vets will get, you will get your social security check. non-essential employees of which there are way too many in the federal government will get laid off temporarily but they get back pay. you might not be able to go to the national zoo in washington, d.c., boo-hoo. don't care. ultimately will you get the wall funding or not? that is it. ed: you raise a important point. pete: i feel like i'm speaking for a lot of people out they're, seen promises establishment republicans made. ed: we'll hear now and days ahead of a potential shut down

voices in the mainstream media will highlight. this person is not getting their paycheck today. pete: correct. ed: there will be deferral on that. oh, the national zoo will be shut down. these people are upset. the voices you will not hear are is veries like agnes gibony she had her son killed by illegal immigrant. so-called angle mom. she was on the program earlier. she had a direct message. her southern killed by illegal i am mill grant. agnes came here legally as immigrant from hungary. she is fed up what is going on the border. she want as wall. she had a direct message for chuck and nancy. >> enough of sacrificing our children, our citizens to protect illegal aliens breaking our laws by invading our country. look at my family and thousands of other angel families. they are permanently separated, permanently affected by the lack of keeping sovereignty of our nation. ed: she said it so clearly. jedediah and i had honor of

talking to her. she is there with the t-shirt, permanent family separation. jedediah: right. ed: we hear the voices in the media, are families being separated at the border. that donald trump is racist. jedediah: it is important to hear these voices. she held this rally. close to her heart, obviously for her own personal loss. send a message to the president. met with the president numerous times. people suffered losses coming out, look, no more. she said herself, if you have to shut the government down to do it, partial government shutdown, you illustrated all the points it is not a shutdown, time to do it is now, nothing is more important than our national security. pete: people seem like they have to take it in their own hands.
