thanks for joining us today. shep smith has a great show for you. i'm dana perino. here's shep. >> shepard: it's noon on the west coast, 3:00 in washington where fox news has learned that president trump does plan to give a speech next week. the question is where. and an american in court in moscow accused of spying. now his lawyer is explaining how the former marine ended up with a flash drive with state secrets. chris brown arrested again after a woman filed a rape accusation. reporting begins now. our reporting begins with a senate majority leader mitch

mcconnell saying the senate will vote this week on president trump's plan to end the partial government shut down and fund his border wall. top democrats in congress say they will not support it. if democrats all vote no, this proposal fails and there is apparently no plan b. over the weekend, president trump offered to temporarily extend protections for some young immigrants whose parents brought them to this country without documentation. three years of protection for the dreamers. in exchange for $5.7 billion to begin to build a wall or barrier along the u.s. southern border. democrats say they will not talk about border security unless and until the government is reopened. but the republican leader from kentucky made what is for him a highly unusual decision. mitch mcconnell is moving forward even though it appears he does not have the 60 votes necessary to proceed. all of this is happening on day 32 of the longest government

shut down in american history. hundreds of thousands of federal workers will miss their second paycheck on friday. families across the country are scrambling to figure out how to pay their bills. some government employees are picking up last-minute jobs, including driving for uber, baby sitting and substitute teaching to bring in cash. more on how the shut down is affecting the country ahead. first, white house officials tell fox news the president is planning to deliver a speech next week. either in the capitol or absent an invitation outside washington. last week nancy pelosi sent a letter to the president asking him to reschedule the annual state of the union address because of the shut down. she's not addressed the matter today. our senior producer from capitol hill, chad pergram reports, the house and the senate have also not passed a resolution that would authorize the president to use the house chamber for the state of the union. as chad puts it, without that

resolution, nothing will happen. at least not there. we have team fox coverage. mike emanuel reporting live from capitol hill. first john roberts reporting live from the white house. >> shep, good afternoon to you. everything in limbo right now. the white house is pushing this ahead. the white house sending an e-mail to the sergeant at arms on sunday asking to schedule a walk-through which they would do ahead of the state of the union, a walk through scheduled for last week cancelled by the sergeant at arms at the request of nancy pelosi's office. in the request for a new walk-through, the white house director of advanced writing "given that we lost valuable time over the past week, my team would like to reschedule the walk-through for this monday," which would have been yesterday. the president is planning as scheduled to give the state of the union address in the capitol on tuesday, a week from tonight, the 29th, but just in case that is not possible, they are also putting together some sort of a backup plan which would involve the president giving some kind of a speech, not sure exactly

what the format would be at this point, someplace outside of washington d.c. here's what hogan gidley said earlier. >> nancy pelosi does not dictate to the president when he will or will not have a conversation with the american people. the state of the union is set up so the president can explain what's going on with our government and what is going on around the globe. there's many ways that he can deliver the state of the union address. i'm not going to get ahead of anything they would announce. >> the constitution does require the president to from time to time give to the congress information on the state of the union, does not require a speech. the president can do it in writing and it's not clear if he were to give a speech outside of washington d.c., if that would satisfy the give to the congress requirement of article 2. so he may have to submit something in writing as well. this is all again in limbo. it's up to speaker of the house, nancy pelosi, whether or not this is going to happen. she could put forward that

resolution to allow the president to come up, but so far the only thing that stands at this point is her letter to the president requesting that he either postpone the state of the union or subject it in writing, shep. >> shepard: anything today on the shut down, john? >> they keep pushing democrats and republicans in the senate to get on this bill that mitch mcconnell said -- and you pointed out -- he was going to bring to the floor, which includes the president's new plan to fund border security, including $5.7 billion for a wall, three years of additional protection for so-called daca recipients and those in the country on temporary protected status. there's no indication at this point that the president does have that support for it. but the white house is now stressing in the strongest way possible the importance of ending the shut down and making the case that it's now nancy pelosi who is keeping the government from reopening. listen here. >> the president has already

given a very reasonable common-sense proposal to deal with this immediate crisis that we have on the border as well immediately open the government. it's nancy pelosi who is absolutely stuck. nancy pelosi who is playing politics with the lives of our federal workers and with keeping our community safe. >> now, there are some democrats in both the senate and the house that are open to the president's proposal, but on principle, shep, they want to open the government first and then negotiate about border security. the white house is concerned that if they were to agree to reopen the government, the democrats would suddenly say border security? we don't want border security. shep? >> shepard: john roberts, live at the white house. for facts sake, president shut down the government. he said he would carry the mantel for it and proud to do it and he wouldn't blame the democrats for it. team fox coverage continues,

mike emanuel reporting live from capitol hill. mike? >> shep, good afternoon. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell notes this is the only bill, the one he's going to present to the senate this week that president trump would sign and reopen the government immediately so the majority leader is telling the democrats to take the deal. >> the opportunity is staring us in the face. that's why we'll vote on this legislation on the senate floor this week. all that needs to happen is for our democratic friends to agree it's time to put the country ahead of politics and vote to end the standoff. >> with the 60-vote threshold in the united states senate, mcconnell needs seven democrats to vote yes. their leader, chuck schumer is saying the president did not consult with democrats. >> let me say that again. there were no serious negotiations with democratic

leaders to produce this proposal. the president didn't ask what democrats needed in the bill to achieve our support. he simply laid his proposal down on the table and proclaimed it a compromise. >> it sounds like the senate majority leader will move forward with the president's plan thursday. >> shepard: what's the word from the house of representatives, mike? from the house of representatives, mike? what are they saying? looks like -- >> the house speaker is saying essentially that the plan the president put forward will not work in the house, and she's saying it's a nonstartner the house of representatives. >> at first when we heard the president was going to make a proposal, we were optimistic that he might be reaching out to open up government so that we could have this discussion. but then we heard what the particulars were in it and it's a nonstarter unfortunately.

>> house republicans say speaker pelosi should make a serious counter offer. >> i think the president put forward a compromise. if the democrats don't like it, that's fine. that's their prerogative. put something forward that doesn't start with no law. i think there's going to have to be some middle ground here. >> day 32 of this partial government shut down and there's been no sign of middle ground and very little sign of compromise. shep? >> shepard: mike emanuel live on the hill. the supreme court making a couple of major decisions today, including one on the dreamers. the justices are leaving the so-called daca program in place for now. a few weeks ago, the president said he could easily make a deal with democrats on the dreamers and a border barrier if the supreme court overturned the program. it did not. president trump also got a big win today. the supreme court allowing his administration to start putting restrictions on trans-gender people serving in the military while lawsuits play out in the courts.

back in 2017, president trump announced the government would not allow trans-gender individuals to serve in any capacity in the u.s. military. lucas tomlinson reporting live from the pentagon. what is the reaction there? >> shep, the pentagon is pleased with the supreme court's split 5-4 decision earlier today. in a state, a pentagon spokesperson said "it's critical that dod be permitted to implement personnel policies that they determine to ensure the most lethal and combative fighting force in the world. the dod's proposed policy is based on professional military judgment. the pentagon has said nothing has changed yet. the military will continue to operate in policies put in in the obama administration. the court ruling allows the trump administration to go through with plans to restrict military service in the future by trans-gender men and women, a 2016 study says 1% of the more than 1 million active military troops identify as trans-gender. in a memo to president trump

last year, jim mattis persons recommended -- >> president trump's new acting defense secretary has yet to weigh-in on the matter. shep? >> shepard: what about lawmakers? any react from them? >> the chairman of the house armed services committee, adam smith, released a statement saying he was extremely displeased with the supreme court's decision. >> this is a temporary victory for the administration. shep? >> lucas, thank you, a young woman out for a night of dancing with her friends and twin sister when she disappeared. now her family is frantic for

>> shepard: police in russia say a drunk guy tried to hijack an airliner with more than 70 passengers on board. the plane took off from siberia and on its way to moscow. according to russian media, the suspect tried to break into the cockpit, claimed he was armed and told the crew fly to afghanistan. so what did the crew do? they came up with a trick for him. they said they needed to refuel before they could make that long flight. here's the radar path. the pilot when he said he needed to refuel, turned the plane

around and made a safe emergency landing at another airport in siberia. nobody got hurt. the lawyer for the american behind bars in russia on spying charges says his client did receive a flash drive with russian state secrets on it like moscow said he did it. but there's a but. the already said paul whelan didn't know the classified intel was on the drive and he never looked at it. whelan was in court today and here he is in a glass cage. his first public appearance since his arrest december 28. he didn't speak to any reporters. he denies all the charges against him. the judge, rich, ruled that he is staying behind bars or i guess for courtroom purposes behind glass. >> that's right, shep. that is a motion that was rejected today by that court. paul whelan's request for bail was denied through next month.

he will stay in jail there. his family says they are disappointed in the ruling, though they're not surprised. they add in a statement "we're certain that he was entrapped and is not guilty of espionage. we have not had any information about a usb drive, what was on it or how it materialized in paul's possession. unfortunately, today's ruling will money that paul will be detained many more months". paul is worried about his health and translation. they say he's having trouble communicationing with the doctors and concerned about presenting a defense in english, shep. >> shepard: whelan's lawyer said he thought whelan was getting tourism information? >> yes. that's what he said. he's a state-appointed attorney from russia. whelan thought he was getting tourism information, that he was instructed to download the

information and was unable to do so so he was presented with this flash drive. >> we're discussing the details and objecting. everyone is concerned with what happened. yet on the flash drive, he received the information, which a state secret. in reality, paul was expected to receive personal information that was not a state secret. information concerning culture. >> russian authorities say december 28, they caught whelan red-handed receiving the information and committing espionage as part of this. if he's convicted, he faces up to 20 years in prison. he and his family deny that. his family says that he was in russia for a wedding. whelan holds past ports from the u.s., united kingdom, ireland and canada. his family says they've worked with all of those governments to get him released, shep. >> shepard: rich edson live from the white house. el chapo.

fake i.d. to visit el chapo in the maximum security prison that he escaped from from a mile-long tunnel. sanchez was pregnant at the time of the visit and they discussed a personal matter, she said. she's rumored to have a child with el chapo. as a politician from 2013 to 2016, sanchez denied having any relationship with the drug king pen until she was fired when it was discovered the two were exchanging prison love letters. sanchez gave details in february when she escaped mexican marines by going through a secret door hidden underneath the bathroom in one of his safe houses. the caveat here, el chapo was naked as they traveled through the city's sewer system. in court today, she mapped out el chapo's safe houses. el chapo's wife, emma, continues to be in court every day.

lawmakers to get a deal so government lawmakers can get their checks friday. laura ingle is reporting live in la guardia. laura? >> the wait to get through tsa is not that bad. we've been hearing it's about 3 to 10 minutes. that wait pales in comparison to how long these tsa workers have had to way for a paycheck. a growing number of agents have called out sick which has given travelers concern. 7.5% of the agency's work force called out yesterday. that is more than double the number from the same day last year. according to the tsa, many workers say the financial hardship of missing a paycheck is making it difficult or impossible for them to get to work. it's not just tsa agents. it's air traffic control workers

that have the same level of anxiety. listen. >> we know it's a stressful job. but we know where the hotspots are at the airport. it's a known quantity and we accept that and work around this. but not knowing when you're getting to get paid and your mortgage is done, there's a breaking point for everyone. >> one tsa worker we spoke with today in portland said it's time to make a difficult choice to get a job that pay them or report to a job that doesn't. the tsa tells us they're sending out extra agents to the airports that need them for now, shep. >> some of these workers were relying on strangers to get through difficult times. i was at a church this past sunday where they gave out $25 gift cards to people. it's coming from all directions. >> it really is and with absolutely no income coming in for these people, they say look,

live report, that woman is now alive and well and found safe and i'm told a suspect is in custody. that's what the prompter said. it's since been changed. boston police say they found olivia ambrose that disappeared after going to a downtown bar with her friends and twin sister. investigators say she left the bar around 11:00 p.m. and was seen on surveillance video a few blocks from the bar where two men invited her to walk with them. earlier we were showing you pictures. we won't show them again. we showed you pictures of someone they wanted to speak with. i don't have enough information yet to know whether anyone is in custody. i believe the writing in the prompter was not confirmed. i can tell you the woman is safe and well and has been taken to a hospital. the woman on your screen now. if there is a suspect for anything, i don't know about it yet. here's an update.

just came in. this is the tweet. 23-year-old olivia ambrose has been located and transported to an area hospital for evaluation purposes. thanks to those that aided in the search. a press conference is scheduled at boston police department headquarters at 6:00 p.m. eastern time. so during "special report." maybe then or sometimes between now and then, we'll will whether something was amiss or what the circumstances were. at this point, i don't know. the headline and most important thing is she's okay. stocks falling today on fears of slowing global economic growth. a live look at the dow. we're off 326 points. growth in china has been especially slow. the slowest at least in many years. this comes after china's officials announced that country's economy grew at the slowest pace in three decades. gerri willis has more.

>> that's right, shep. when the world's second biggest economy gets cold, everybody feels lousy. that's what's going on here. china's grow, 6.6%. may sound good for you but lousy to china. the average is 10%. it's not just that, it's a report from the financial times that the u.s. has turned down china's off of preparatory talks for those trade talks. that send the market down. we're hearing there are white house officials denying that now. i just got word of that recently. that's why we came up off of that 440 point or so sell-off to 345. we'll continue to watch this. but china headlines, major reason we're down. >> shepard: thanks, gerri. china making big changes to their military. a foreign policy says this is the right move for china. so what does it mean for the united states? that is next. billions of mouths.

>> shepard: china is apparently trying to increase its military power by cutting the number of ground forces. the state news agency says the land army of china now makes up less than half of the total number of troops than it had before. china is boosting its military

power in the sea and in the air and in cyber space. michael o'hanlon is here, senior fellow and director of research of foreign policy at brookings, a nonprofit public policy organization. good to see you. thanks. >> hi, shepard. good to see you. >> shepard: big picture, what do we take away from this? >> it's an ongoing trend. you pay recall that chinese military fought us well on the ground in the korean war and they had a huge army back then. it was just a bunch of con scripts fighting with unsophisticated weapons but they made up with quality with quantity. even in the 80s, they had four million people in their military. twice the number we had. almost most of them in the army. they were technologically backward. ever since that point, the end of the cold war, during their period of modernization and high tech growth, they've been cutting the ground forces and

prioritizing much more technology and the air force and the navy. they have felt better about their ground borders even though they have a lot of countries with which they share land borders, they don't have a lot of major disputes. most of the disputes are still there it's china that may stoke them as with india in recent years. in other words, the chinese can concentrate their efforts on the western pacific. taiwan, south china sea, east china sea, maybe a little bit towards japan. this is where they are putting more and more money and technology. this is a longstanding trend and frankly i'd have to say from a chinese point of view it makes sense. from an american point of view, it's worrisome. they're doing smart things that gives them more power in places that we care about, too. >> jim mattis' resignation is over disputes on how to handle russia and china, no? >> you know, i can't get a read on that part, shepard. he wanted -- secretary mattis

wanted to prioritize russia and china. he did a good job of it. he had the president's backing on much of it. the thrust of focusing the military on great power competition is a bipartisan concept that a lot of people believed in and even president trump seems to believe in it somewhat in regard to china in particular. so since we're talking mostly about china, i'm not sure that was the issue where mattis and trump disagreed so much. i think secretary mattis felt listen, if you're not able to let me do good consultation with allies, i can't be effective in developing coalitions to deal with any threat. i think that might be the way to answer your question. i think the immediate concern that led to mattis' resignation came with syria and afghanistan. >> shepard: i did too. level of concern. quickly. >> you know, you have to be

respectful of the chinese. they're doing smart things. they're already not smart to get in a war with us. they will push and nudge and explore. we have to be on top of our game not so much to fight them but push back, be vigilant. >> shepard: thanks, michael. businesses across the country lending a hand to federal workers who may miss a second paycheck this week. that's next. it appears teachers in one of the country's largest school districts are headed back to school after that pulled an all nighter and negotiated with l.a. details ahead. d like to take a t to address my fellow veterans, because i know so many of you have served our country honorably. one of the benefits that we as a country give you as a veteran is the eligibility for a va loan for up to 100% of your home's value. if you need cash for your family, call newday usa. with automatic authority from the va, we can say yes when banks say no.

>> shepard: an update now on the case of a missing woman found alive just a short time ago in boston. our producer on the scene reports police did take somebody away from the scene in cuffs. we reported minutes ago how boston police reported that they found 23-year-old olivia
