♪ [national anthem] >> virginia state republican party is calling for virginia's democrat governor to step down. >> pictures surface interested yearbook 1948 of northam wearing either blackface or kkk robe. >> that photo and racist and offensive attitude it represents, does not reflect that person i am today. >> now the governor is in league with planned parenthood. >> regardless we are building a wall and building a lot of wall.
3:01 am
we are getting nowhere with the democrats. we added 304,000 jobs which was a shocker to a lot of people. >> i call it the face of the new trump economy. look at these numbers for heaven's sake. we are not making this stuff up. >> cory booker of new jersey joined the 2020 democratic presidential field. >> i'm running to restore our sense of common purpose, to focus on the common pain that we have all over this country. we can do better. >> i don't think he has a chance. ♪ ed: good morning and we begin with a fox news alert. virginia governor ralph northam facing mounting calls for his immediate resignation. prominent democrats all around the country urging him to step down after highly controversial photos emerged from 1984 medical school yearbook. the photo showing, as you can see, two people one in blackface and another wearing a kkk hood and robe. we do not know which one is the governor. but we did confirm that he is in this photo.
3:02 am
northam late last night posting this to twitter trying to keep his job. >> that photo and the racist and offensive attitude it will represents does not reflect that person i am today or the way that i have conducted myself as a soldier, a doctor, and a public servant. i am deeply sorry. ed: northam added that he is committed to finishing his term there is only one term for governors in virginia. lawmakers across the country, as we noted, demanding he step down. this is incredible breaking story. pete is back as well as emily. emily: the gang is back together again. ed: remember how this started many around the country heard of front and center because of this bill now advancing in the commonwealth of virginia that some people are saying is basically infanticide, allowing abortion right up until birth and even right after birth. northam was front and center
3:03 am
for defending it with very controversial comments. many democrats ducking that now though. they have to respond to this story. emily: remarkable to me is not essentially conceding the rest of his term not only is that yearbook horrible but on the heels of what was infanticide bill vague and shocking to the conscious. why is he not taking responsibility to that action and behavior democrats running for president have come out and said that's unacceptable. coor booker just announced. kamala harris, kristin jill branelsd. julian castro. terry mcauliff. amy klobuchar. quite prominent. the leader of the black caucus in virginia. leader of the democratic side also calling for him. this is a bad photo. everyone is saying that we
3:04 am
know that it's from a college yearbook in 1984. that said, i don't think that means that northam today is a racist. just like i don't think it means ed gillespie his opponent, northam tried to call him a racist during their campaign. just like it doesn't mean like all the calls that donald trump is a racist. everyone needs to calm down. judge him for that photo all you want. not a good photo, final. this served in the army after that 1984 to 92. maybe he learned some thing. vice chair. union general sheltered freed slaves. he had to go through the fact that he learned that his family owned slaves which was terrible. i watch all this moralistic virtue signaling and doesn't it get sick to you at some point? like this is bad but to avalanche. wait until something comes out on all these other democrats. does everyone pile on every time a sinner reveals they're a sinner. emily: that's the argument. ed: gone after gillespie his
3:05 am
opponent and gone after the president 2017 trashing him over charlottesville saying the president was giving cover to white supremacist and now it turns thought medical school yearbook he is the one either in blackspace or kkk robe and it's just disgusting. emily: that's the argument democrats throw stones at glass houses and ultimately that falls on their own party too. pete: part of the disgusting nature of in this avalanche and pile on of northam is the second part of a bad week for him. the pile on didn't start from democrats when the governor, who may soon be a former governor made a new law in virginia that he supports. he describes. ed: going through the process. pete: he got behind it he described what it could mean for a baby newly born. the rights to alberto what ed haabort what edhad referred s infanticide. >> if a mother is in labor i
3:06 am
can tell you exactly what would happen. the infant would be delivered. the infant would be kept comfortable. the infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and family desired. then a discussion would ensue between the physicians. pete: discussions would ensue between the physicians and mother. as to the life on the baby life would be kept or not. ed: in that sound bite but they would provide comfort to this baby that was born already even though you may abort it people are saying comfort. what are you talking about? ben sasse and other u.s. senators have now jumped in on a federal basis and said they are trying to get the u.s. senate on record as saying this is infanticide and has to stop. remember, what happened here in new york state with the new state law. that's actually the law in this state and now if this moves forward in virginia, this is gaining momentum now in a disgusting procedure. and so i think that's what set the table here.
3:07 am
as pete said, democrats were not criticizing northam. i didn't hear what he said. they were ignoring him. emily: we know fully well there has been a cherry picking of rage from the left, right? what was so striking about those comments is how clinical it appeared. that it was essentially referring tissue. it was such a detached clinical approach and that is in part what shocks the conscious in addition to the fact that that bill itself was so vague and so unspecific that there would be a whole host of ramifications from that the states and the senate are responding to that by saying this is way overboard. this shouldn't be the reaction that the left fears about roe v. wade being eroded. it absolutely. pete: gone way further than that when dems asked ready to condemn him for yearbook photo from 1984. asked about comment from yesterday or two days ago about infanticide. here's what they had to say. >> i have no idea what he said. i have no idea what's happened there. >> i don't know what he said. >> you have no idea what he said? >> i have not seen anything.
3:08 am
>> have you not heard about it? >> i have been in retreat. >> considering the comments from governor northam yesterday how does it make it harder for pro-life democrats in the party. >> i'm sorry, i just don't know what he said yesterday. pete: only one lobby democrats are you afraid to cross the abortion lobby. the planned parenthood lobby and they are done. that's why you haven't heard anything from democrats. they took the easy one on the photo and avalanche on that. don't say anything about the abortion issue. emily: all of a sudden no one hears anything oh i have no idea. when someone from the right or g.o.p. party says anything it's a direct quote all over the place tweeted. so -- ed: go back to the kavanaugh hearings and the savagery that was going on for many of these same democrats like kamala harris and cory booker who were all over kavanaugh without corroboration. pete: we will get to spartacus later. ed: of course the niece of martin luther king jr. talked last night on fox
3:09 am
about why ralph northam's yearbook photo is so painful. watch. >> tell you why the photo bothers me. margaret sanger who is the founder of planned parenthood was a consultants to planned parenthood. and so, she founded planned parenthood but she was a consultant to the ku klux klan. now, the governor is in league with planned parenthood and so is some of the other politicians that you just mentioned and so they ar infanticide and abortion today. it doesn't matter how old the photo is but what is happening today still happening in that photo and geng happening right now. that's why the photo bothers me. ku klux klan is still in league with planned parenthood. anybody who sanctions planned parenthood is in league with the ku klux klan. pete: well said. margaret sanger wanted the elimination of the unfit. anti-disadvantage.

regrets mistakes he made after drinking too much. calling out maroon five adam levine for crossing the picket line. major backlash for headlining the super bowl halftime show. >> if you are going to cross this ideological or intellectual picket line then own it and adam levine isn't owning it. if anything, it's a copout. emily: lavigne getting criticized for his decision to perform and saying is he just doing for the music. critics are didn't reject in support of kaepernick's fight famously kneeling during the national anthem. pete: can't just do it for the music anymore. ed: they may have some tribute to kaepernick and surprise halftime. let's go down to atlanta where brian kilmeade is. i can guarantee is he standing and not kneeling, good morning, brian. brian: absolutely. thank you very much, ed. you are 100 percent right. let me tell you what we have here at the nfl experience. first i got the collins high

3:18 am
hours north of here. we actually rode along yesterday with one of the trailers, being assisted with a gentleman named simir here is what he told us. >> border to immigration cross and take opportunity to pass through other country. i think it's a good. griff: do you have a message to president trump? >> take care of us because we are -- united states and give us opportunity to stay in the united states. griff: so what samir was first talking about the mexican president obrador very pro-immigrant helping them get to the u.s. border. the trump administration reports "the washington post" they are going to expand to other cities and san ysidro port of entry and san diego and one of them is likely to be el paso, texas, as these migrants begin to get on buses headed directly
3:19 am
towards that area. griff? ed: we will be getting back to you. it's interesting. because obviously the border issue is playing out. huge battle in washington. remember, nancy pelosi had said just over a week ago mr. president reopen the government and we will negotiate. and i was covering it in the middle of this week back in washington the democrats on that bipartisan conference committee put together to get some border security money saying everything is on the table. we want to get a compromise. money for a barrier if not a wall. and nancy pelosi comes out 24 hours later and says nothing. you will get no money at all. so you have got to wonder if they tried to pull a fast one on the president and that's why he may go for a state of emergency to just build the wall on his own. the democrats promised him they would negotiate and it certainly doesn't look like they are. emily: they are not. the 17 newly acquired attorneys at the white house are working diligently on that basically as an option so immediately that can be presented. what's interesting to me is the fact that we have
3:20 am
currently 30 states of emergency in effect they have been in effect for literally decades. i don't hear the left acknowledging that or even meeting. meet every six months to assess still valid or right. they have met not once in the 40 years that the other states of emergency have been in action. of the argument it's some type of loaded weapon or aberrant or rare tool. pete: great points except this is trump. they hate him so much. this thing greatest emergency declaration ever and should be resisted at all cost. this is what he should do and he will do it. ed: big state of the union tuesday night live here on the fox news channel. we will be talking about it all morning. also talking about the virginia governor not the only one facing a big controversy over race this morning. bill maher getting backlash yet again this time for this comment. >> i was in the cia for almost a decade. i was of the dude in the back alleys at 4:00 in the morning collecting
3:21 am
intelligence on threats of the homeland. >> that's where they collect them, huh? >> it is. it is. >> by the popeye's chicken. let's be honest: dealing with your insurance shouldn't be more frustrating than the accident itself. that's why esurance makes it simple. just take some pics.

debate senior advisor for the trump 2020 campaign katrina pierson and democratic strategist jonathan harris. good morning to both of you. >> good morning. ed: is there little remorse this morning for democrats who were so eager to go through that yearbook of brett kavanaugh during the confirmation hearings? >> no. i mean, i think this is extremely different. this is more steve king territory than brett kavanaugh. and no, i mean, look, the reality is democrats have been swift in asking him to step down, saying that he needs to resign. almost all the 2020 candidates have done that. there has been no question about that. i think it's let brett kavanaugh and more steve king who still has not resigned. ed: way saw you about that because as i recall medical school book. kavanaugh was a high school yearbook and pillarried for things not corroborated in this case the governor is admitting he was in the yearbook this is his controversial photo. >> first, ed, let me dispute the fact that democrats were swift to call for his
3:26 am
resignation because, in fact, they were not. if you looked at the other networks last night on some of them you would think that northam was a republican because the lower third of the screen said so. many democrats did not call for his immediate resignation. you could hear some of the political pundits on other networks actually trying to make excuses saying things like is there a path back from redemption for racism? you even had a prominent black political commentator say i'm going to leave it up to the voters of virginia to decide whether or not he should step down. the only reason why this is a big deal for democrats now is because you did have people like kamala harris come out and demand for him to resign. make no mistake. this is not about the image of blackface. this is about the klan's picture it is out there and now we are finding out that it was out there before. the question is who knew about it and when they did know it. ed: jonathan, are you stunned just as a political strategist that neither side found this? because i bet ed gillespie the republican who lost to northam is maybe demanding a
3:27 am
refund this morning from his oppo research firm. >> definitely. there is a question why this wasn't able to be found. this wasn't in the 1950s. this was in the mid 1980s. it shouldn't have been that difficult to find. i think it's a bit of a stretch to say that it wasn't swift. i mean, by this morning, you have all of the leading candidates. elizabeth warren, kamala harris and cory booker asking him to step down. there is no way he has legislated this way or would or maybe if there is a path back there very big difference between people doing that. >> if this was a republican. >> it usually is. >> it would have been immediate. >> actually that's not true and i'm not sure why people are surprised that this photo even happened. after all it is the democrat party who launched the kkk. >> but it's the republican party who had to apologize for embracing the southern strategy in 2005. that's a no little more recent. >> the left always hide
3:28 am
these types of things when this comes to racism on the left. >> because this picture was out there. and somebody hid it. no one denounced hillary clinton when she embraced robert byrd who is or was a grand wizard of the kkk. ed: what about that jonathan. he was a leader in the senate and embraced by hillary and republicans as well and grand wizard in the kkk you come on this morning and saying it's always been republicans who got in trouble with this. what about robert bird. >> i am saying it's usually republicans. >> please. >> from steve king. really? we can go down the list republicans have a storied history with racism. ed: i will let you talk. he has been admonished for comments recently it wasn't about the kkk. comments that republicans lashed out you now all of a sudden because northam is in trouble a democrat you are tying steve king to. this there is a difference between steve king who has not resigned and
3:29 am
ceremoniously stripped of his power at a time when the house didn't have any control anyway so it didn't really mean anything and this where democrats are asking him to resign and he doesn't have a history of this. steve king had a long history of this. paul ryan was asked about his history of this a while ago. i'm not saying both sides don't have an issue with this. but it is much more a problem on the right. >> if you look at 2013 in the debate where he had with lieutenant governor's race which i think it was e.w. jackson who actually tried to shake his hand at the end, he didn't even acknowledge he existed even after the black man tapped him on the leg to shake his hand, he didn't even turn his direction, in fact, pretended like he didn't exist. so actually there is a history of this here's the thing. is he going to resign. he has to resign because the democrats have said now that they can't run against trump and call him a racist if he stays. in he is going to be replaced by a black man which is poetic justice. >>let let me know when steve king resigns. ed: mentioned steve king a number of times.

3:35 am
mercedes stadium. i had a chance to talk to him yesterday. here is our interview right at super bowl park. watch. >> the city is doing incredibly well. we will have over a million guests here and the stadium, i know, is going to be spectacular. the roof, the artwork, the scoreboard. everything about it will be shown. brian: bob kraft, when he bought your team the falcons he gave you advice. >> right. brian: run your business and run your team the same way. >> what he really was saying that the values the culture we built at home depot and is in place in all of our businesses today you want to shofindways to show appreciatioo fans. time, energy, passion, resources, everything they give an organization. so food and beverage is a really big deal. we cut the prices by 50%, half. and we also said the price something not going to change. we are going to make it -- it's not going to be dynamic
3:36 am
pricing. don't care how big an event it may be. super bowl, an for example. those values pay attention to them and drive you to success in the national football league. brian: i understand last year like many owners and football fans were a little torn when everyone started taking a knee on the national anthem and how we solve. this you are part of a committee that helped solve it what did you do and why do you think we have been able to put this in the back drop? >> understand the issues they are talking about are real in america. there are issues that we have to continue to make progress on. they really want the ownership of the nfl to not just be on the sidelines and supporting them but actually be in the arena with them shoulder to shoulder. the league is taking that on. dealing with criminal justice, social justice, equality issues. working with the players' coalition, working club level and league level and we have moved it really from protest to progress. and that's been our goal. and so the players feel that way and the reason they are not kneeling is because they see on a nationwide basis, on a club basis that we're making a difference and we
3:37 am
are committed to the same changes they are. i think the players really honor that and respect that i'm not worried particularly about a demonstration of any sort on sunday. brian: right maroon five or anything like that. >> no. brian: other thing in the news another coe very successful came from a eager background howard schultz. he was told by a lawmaker i'm tired of the billionaires free loading off of us. you are a billionaire. do you free load? >> no. i think most people of wealth that i have spent time with and work with are blessed with the success they have had but care about making a difference. and it's not just about making a difference in their own lives. it's kind of the soul question how to make a difference in humanity and other people's lives. all about sharing the wealth. our financial wealth but, beyond that you know, our values and showing people we care about them. brian: rams, patriots, sunday 6:15. what are we going to see? >> you will see hopefully is a great game. you will see a spectacular
3:38 am
stadium. and you can see spectacular events in the stadium and spectacular game. so i will give you the commissioner's answer which i have listened to roger many years. i'm rooting for both teams. i'm rooting for -- i really am routing for a competitive game. >> then i will ask you what's your schedule tonight? >> that was arthur blank. still hurts two years ago up 28-3. with us a member of that team. two members of the patriots, the family. nicole and melissa. nicole, three years in a row you have been here. is it old hat? >> no. it's such an amazing journey the whole time you are doing some cool events. it's all leading up to the big game. so exciting. brian: melissa, do you feel like you are in the championship, too. >> it's really exciting to be here. we have the pleasure of enjoying our time and some opportunities while we are here so so much fun. brian: how great is it to be cheering for the decatur army kids this morning? sean, i know it's a little loud. what does football mean to

there have been rumors of it for a long time coincidently it comes out. it's all about abortion. it has nothing to do with the ku klux klan and black face. democrats have served with racists a long time. longest serving senator robert byrd a democrat. hillary clinton called him her friend and mentor in 2010. this is because the left is losing the narrative on abortion. making the same mistake pro-lifers used to make in reverse. arguing about abortion at the moment of birth even after birth. pro-lifers used to argue about abortion at the moment of conception. we know overwhelmingly they lose late term abortion. they will use a 35-year-old yearbook to oust him. emily: cnn was reporting he was a republican. >> they bury the story about infanticide. they say republicans are seizing on the narrative. then he does this. cnn reports is he a republican because he simply must be a republican, right?
3:49 am
he is a racist. then that story falls apart, too. what's amazing here is the gracelessness of the democratic party though. we are talking about 35-year-old yearbooks. this is a favorite tactic of theirs since the kavanaugh hearings. i don't care what he did 35 years ago and what offensive costume he has worn. i care about what happens now in 2019. when you have a governor who says he supports abortion, red, infanticide after birth that means he is morally unfit to serve. pete: some day each of us hope grace will be bestowed upon us for something we did 35 years ago. have we gone so far is that a corner we have turned that we can't come back from? >> of course. this is i guess the yearbook is the original facebook post. digging back into somebody's past. finding any offensive thing they did to oust them. we know that they didn't just happen to find this last night. this has been around for a long time. they are deploying it now to kill his career. that's fine. they are doing it for the wrong reasons.
3:50 am
emily: thank you very much for joining us. >> good stuff. pete: remember when cory booker spartacus himself made headlines during the kavanaugh nomination with this comment. >> i openly invite and accept the consequences. this is about the closest i will ever have in my life i am spartacus moment. pete: candidate now says it was one of his proudest moments. we will explain. emily: u.s. economy booming adding 304,000 jobs despite the shutdown. dems are wanting to raise taxes. what impact will that have on the booming economy? we will cover that, too. brian brenberg here to break down the numbers next ♪ i want to put on ♪ my my, my, my ♪ boogie shows
3:51 am
3:54 am
ed: a lot of new news to get to. a job report adding 304,000 jobs in the month of january alone. but predictably 2020 democrats have the booming economy in crosshairs. they are now vowing drastic tax hikes. >> could increase the taxes that people are paying who are the extremely wealthy, 70%. 80%. we have had it as high as 90%. 1% must pay their fair share. emily: here to react is brian brenberg from the kings college here in new york city. thanks for joining us this morning. ed: we have a great economy let's wreck it. >> this is the last number the democrats wanted to see. they are talking about a socialist remake of the economy. in january we get 304,000 jobs added. remember, this was never
3:55 am
supposed to happen under the trump economy this late in the recovery. it definitely wasn't supposed to happen in the middle of the longest shutdown ever. yet january defies all expectations. leaves democrats saying well, how do i explain this massive overall when we have the best jobs economy. pete: how do they explain it wage growth. >> trending where we want to. it's not where we need it get dr. it's going there. they will have to back pedal on this. they don't want to answer the hard questions. they don't want to have to talk about the details here. gee how is your socialist takeover going to change things when we have already got 300,000 job creation numbers going here? what are you really critiquing in the trump economy in the performance has been way beyond anything you thought was possible. emily: brian, how do you account for that continued delusion, frankly where the numbers are speaking for themselves and this continued inability to appreciate it and change their course? >> democrats don't like the idea that entrepreneurs
3:56 am
drive the economy without government control. if you look at all of these policies, tax policies, regulatory policies. democrats want control of the policy. they want to remake it in their image of what's moral. they hate the fact that entrepreneurs don't play by those rules. they create, they innovate and has nothing to do with washington, d.c. that's the real issue here. and that's why they are pushing policies that are all about centralizing power and decision-making in washington, d.c. ed: that's what taxes are about, too. it's piggy bank. green new deal. medicare for all. >> i mean, they want the money to be able to reinvent the economy in their image to push the social policies that they are interested. in not what consumers are interested in and entrepreneurs are interested in. pete: class warfare. suddenly evil. >> they can't control rich people and dictate the terms. they have to sit back and watch. sorry, you can't always control things. sometimes you get 300,000

4:03 am
interesting that a lot of democrats, particularly 2020 democrats are now calling for him to resign many of the same democrats who earlier this week did not call the same governor out for basically supporting infanticide. so that is interesting. we're going to get to that in a moment. but, also interesting that the governor of virginia is saying he will not step down despite this controversy. watch. >> the racist and offensive attitudes it represents does not reflect that person i am today or the way that i have conducted myself as a soldier a doctor and a public servant. i am deeply sorry. i cannot change the decisions i made nor can i undo the harm my behavior caused then and today. but i accept responsibility for my past actions and i am ready to do the hard work of reef gaining your trust.
4:04 am
ed: it's remarkable this yearbook was essentially there for the taking for either democrats back in his primary in 2017 or the republican candidate ed gillespie who lost by several points to him, esmly. buff now you have just curve ball of democrats saying you have got to get out. emily: exactly. prominent democrats are calling on northam to resign including cory booker, senator elizabeth warren from massachusetts. kamala harris from california. kirsten jihadi brand from new york. julian castro. amy klobuchar and former virginia governor terry mcauliff as well. a chorus. pete: terry mcauliff was significant when he was governor of virginia ralph northam was his lieutenant governor. you also have other prominent democrats and republicans calling for him to step down. this is a terrible photo. everyone who looks at that photo says man, bad idea. also ralph northam after
4:05 am
that went on to serve in the military in the army, honorably. has since -- is he a vice chair of a authority at a civil war site that showcases the sheltering of freed slaves. just because he took a bad photo 35 years ago doesn't mean you are a racist today. i refuse to sit here and say ralph northam is a racist. that's a racist photo. it's a bad idea. ed: he was to president trump. because. pete: or to ed gillespie. ed: he went on cnn and elsewhere. saying the president is a racist. giving aid and comfort to white supremacist because of what happened in charlottesville very interesting that ralph northam was very quick to throw a stone at the president of the united states over charlottesville and other matters, emily, here he is with this reprehensible from 1948. >> absolutely. ed: when he was an adult. not a kid. emily: goes to show as well plenty of people throwing stones that don't exactly have this clean past as well. all of a sudden become hot
4:06 am
button topics that everyone else pouncing on to look back and say when this happened this was my response. this was my outrage and therefore you can have faith. pete: careful when you are apologizing for something did you 35 years ago and you hope that people will give you the benefit of the doubt and listen to your oea polling. again, whatever happens to ralph northam i don't care the voters of virginia and democrats will decide that's up to. they do we really live in a moment where everything you did 35 years ago will throw you under the bus forever? i hope not. i hope not. ed: also, pete, on your point same democrats rushing out because it's easy to say that this photo you see here in the "wall street journal" is reprehensible and he won't say whether he is the one in black face or kkk hood. it's reprehensible. where were they earlier this week on the abortion issue? emily: where was his apology on the abortion issue as well. ed: this is what he said earlier this week about a state law proposed in virginia gaining steam there
4:07 am
when you listen to what he is saying would essentially allow a mother to decide to kill a baby after it has been born which is why republicans say this is clearly infanticide. this is him justifying it watch. >> in this particular example, if a mother is in labor, i can tell you exactly what would happen the infant would be delivered. the infant would be kept comfortable. the infant would be resuccesresuscitated if that's t the mother and family desired. then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother. pete: this is where the modern democratic party is that's why the democrats didn't come out and condemn northam for those comments. ed: they had a chance. reporters were chasing them for days. pete: more afraid of planned parenthood and republicans are pouncing as exposed to extreme views from democratic virginia governor. when democrats were asked about this. remember the pile of names that emily read of all the people condemning him for that photo. this is what dems said about northam and his proabortion
4:08 am
comments. >> i have no idea what he said. i have no idea what has happened there. >> i don't know what he said. >> you have no idea what he said. >> i don't. i have not seen anything. >> have you not heard about it. i have been in retreat. >> considering the comments from governor northam yesterday, how does that make it harder for pro-life democrats in the party? does that cause problems at all. >> i'm sorry, i just don't know what he said yesterday. ed: and she is catholic and she said i don't know what he said when it was out there. pete: ask her tomorrow and the next day and the next day. keep asking them because they need to answer to those comments and what she say will be very revealing how they feel about late term abortion. emily: any time anyone opens their mouth there is a chorus from the left everyone shown on that sot. and now the fact i have no idea. i have no idea. it's incredibly transparent. ed: one of the democrats calling on fellow democrat ralph northam in virginia to resign is cory booker who is the latest entrant as emily teed up nicely. cory booker the latest
4:09 am
entrant into the 2020 sweepstakes if you want. when last left cory booker he was at the kavanaugh hearings making a spectacle himself at the hearings. here is his spartacus moment. >> i am going to release the email about racial profiling and i understand that that -- the penalty comes with potential ousts from the senate and if senator cornyn believes that i violated senate rules, i openly invite and accept the consequences. this about s. about the closest i will probably ever have in my life i am spartacus moment. pete: cory booker reflecting on that day on "the view" he still feels like spartacus. >> the truth doesn't even really matter. i hope you goal back and watch the kavanaugh hearings. one of my prouder moments sticking you up for people. with his told. bring it you are going to throw cory booker out throw me into the pit as well. that senator i looked at them and said wow i am
4:10 am
spartacus moment. he stepped forward anything that happens to corey happens to me. ed: chairman at the committee at the time chuck grassley said these emails are coming out anyway. holding himself out as spartacus i'm throwing down here. i might be admonished might be breaking senate rules if he released emails. chairman of the they are being released anyway. being transparent. you are making a show of this. emily. emily: falls so flat. in that moment, the ripple effect. the only one that was really proud of it obviously was spartacus. ed: senator spartacus. pete: do you know why he thought it was such a special moment. cory booker has never thought of putting his political career on the line for somebody else. it's always been about cory booker. how do i elevate. everybody who knows cory booker knows he is a politician's politician. he will jump on an issue, jump on this to glorify himself at the podium. that's what he does. when he is at the podium and some senator says i will go down if corey goes down. what? i can't imagine somebody doing that it's like
4:11 am
spartacus. closest thing i ever come to military service in my life. lie like the president said yesterday he has no chance. ed: pete is triggered. friends@foxnews.com. what do you think about the spartacus presidential run? we want to get your thoughts. emily: all right, turning now your headline us. the u.s. plans to expand its asylum process to several border cities. the measure requires migrants to wait in mexico while asylum claims are process you had. it's only being enforced at one border crossing now. new rules would also roar not just single adults. considering a gag over in a case against president trump's former advisor roger stone. >> the whole purpose of the gag would be so i don't poison a potential jury pool but they just poisoned a potential jury pool by making me look like elle chap or pablo khobar. >> she wants to hear stone's side of the story but doesn't want it to become a public relations campaign. next court date is set for

4:17 am
pete: the first criminal charges against so-called birth tourism just filed in federal court. 19 people in southern california charged in a scheme which brings pregnant chinese mothers to the u.s. to give birth making their children automatically american citizens. emily: how often does this really happen? here to weigh in former border patrol chief under president obama mark morgan. good morning. thanks for joining us this morning. >> good morning. pete: hi, mark. how often does this happen? does it surprise you? what do not know about birth
4:18 am
tourism. >> it doesn't surprise me at all. i hoped american people are paying attention to this. because this really shows one event among countless just how broke our overall immigration system is our laws are full of loopholes. our policies are archaic. experts have been saying this for years. and this case isn't "newsweek." if you go along the southwest border for decades, young women, pregnant women have intentionally illegally entered this country with the sole purpose of giving birth here in the united states. they weren't fleeing violence. they will weren't fleeing persecution, they were pregnant and their sole purpose was to get here illegally to their child could be born in the united states. it's happening all the time there are midwives in the united states that help them giving them prenatal care get off the grid and just before they give birth they go to the hospital and their kid is united states citizens. it happens all the time and been happening for decades. emily: speak to whether this is exponentially growing and how other countries are now
4:19 am
joining in on this. and as well speak to whether other government officials are involved. how wide is that web when these other countries are involved you will see hs ice did a great job this isn't just the southwest border problem although it's significant there and the president is right in what he is trying to do. this really is a larger problem. as more countries understanding that our laws are absolutely archaic. they are taking advantage of the generosity of i think the greatest nation of the world. this case illustrates that. again, it's growing and i will give you an example along the southwest border with the influx of the family units. when i was chief i actually went to one the southwest border stations i saw a young pregnant woman with a 3 or 4-year-old child on herr lap. because of the asylum laws broke and bad case precedent like flores the border patrol had no choice but to release her into the interior united states knowing she was pregnant and that that she would give
4:20 am
birth and then that individual would be a u.s. citizen and border patrol had no choice. pete: mark, this is a big issue and don't have enough time to get through all of it the idea of birthright citizenship, how do you make it something that fits with the environment we live in. >> well, i think that's a great question. but i think that's a legislative fix that can be done. i don't believe our forefathers meant because we are a land of law, a rule of law, i don't believe our forefathers meant that you could break our laws, intentionally, either through criminal action enter this country and then reap the benefits from that i don't think that was an intent. the legislature needs to get together and fix this. pete: that's a great point. no. mark, you drew a pretty nice line there. we will continue to follow. this thank you for your time. thanks; janice dean is live in gobbler's knob in punxsutawney, pennsylvania. what's the latest out there? >> the latest is they are in to the ceremony.

4:38 am
they love playing the game. they now work in and around football. but, understand this, these kids for some of them this is a way out of their environment. and the risk that you take it's worth it i mean. brian: where did you come from marshall? >> i'm from new orleans. i grew up in a housing project. i wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the game of football. i understand the risk but it's worth it. brian: kids, do you want coach marshall to bring offensive play against my defense? brian: jerry, bring him out here. line him up. i'm going to run a play. do the 4-3. two defensive backs. we are going to run two plays all right, marshall? work with these kids. >> linebacker. brian: you can be middle linebacker. first contact we don't want you to tackle the cheerleaders. patriots here cheering you on. let's run a play.

4:46 am
ed: let's start with cory booker if elected president what would be on his agenda. >> first off if cory booker became president america would have first vegan president. are we ready for that i am not sure. the truth is a lot of democrat platforms look quite similar. all the ones we are talking about today embrace some form of medicare for all which would basically get rid of all private health insurance and some form of the green new deal which would fundamentally change life in america as we know it. cory booker, while he supports these, i think we are going to see him emphasize things like criminal justice reform in his campaign, legalizing marijuana. but he has an interesting path where he used to be moderate on platforms like school choice and then when he became sort of a public national persona he completely flip flopped and smeared education secretary betsy devos who he used to actually work with. ed: that's interesting as you say because you have
4:47 am
someone like cory booker mayor of newark, of course. they had troubled schools. he was trying new things. maybe moving to the middle. now if you are going to run for president in 2020 and you are a democrat you have to move to the left and that's what we are seeing with kamala harris as well. she did this town hall with cnn. what she said about private health insurance was pretty shocking. >> go ahead. i want to hear your reaction. >> oh, so kamala harris, yes, she had some trouble when she talked about private health insurance because, look, a lot of americans might support some obscure idea of healthcare for everyone, funded by the government. but, when it comes down to it, when americans are actually told that this would mean there's no such thing as employee sponsored or private health insurance anymore, the numbers, the poll numbers of americans who support that dropped dramatically. she is sort of figuring out where she is on all of that and realizing that, you know, this -- the idea of medicare for all really
4:48 am
makes president obama and obamacare look like a moderate proposal. ed: that's an interesting way to put it what about kirsten gillibrand, of course from here in new york? >> so kirsten gillibrand used to be blue dog democrat. at one point in the beginning of her career she had an a-rating with the nra. this is really hard to believe anymore. she has completely flip flopped on that front. she has an f-rating with the nra. she used to want english to be the official language of the united states. she used to be strong on border security. and now she, you know, she is sort of with the democrats saying walls are immoral and she wants to abolish ice. so she is -- she is beginning her campaign with some sort of apology tour apologizing for these path positions that she held that are just no longer tolerated among the democrats. ed: what about elizabeth warren? because she raised some eyebrows by telling cnbc that billionaires are free loaders even though the top 1% pay as big share of the
4:49 am
taxes in this country as you know. but what's the rest of the warren agenda? >> well, elizabeth warren has likability problem, relatability problem. she is probably more relevant back during the obama administration where she really spearheaded the liely misguided the consumer protection bureau. since then it's hard to know what she has really accomplished. she certainly is running on these ideas like the green new deal and some sort of government funded health insurance. but her constant demonization of job creators in america is really damaging and misguided because many of these job creators are the reasons why our economy is doing so well. taxing the rich is not going to solve america's problems. ed: yeah. and in her defense, elizabeth warren and some of these other democrats are saying that they want to get the rich to pay their quote,

kkk robe, he should resign immediately. so, republicans turning up the heat on a governor who is already on tender hooks this week. his comments on late term abortions on wednesday morning to wtop radio were widely panned. if northam were to resign he would be replaced by the state's lieutenant governor and first governor in modern virginia history to resign. guys? ed: gillian turner live in washington. so many directions we can take it. go straight to dan bongino fox news contributor former secret service agent host of podcast and author of "spy gate, the attempted sabotage of donald j. trump." good morning, sir. when you are the governor of any state in this great country and trying to explain to the people of your state or your commonwealth in this case whether you are the guy in black face in the photo or the guy in a kkk hood, it is not a good morning in virginia. >> no. i mean, ed, there are red
5:05 am
lines in america you just never cross. and that's clearly one of them. and, ed, you know, i think everyone needs to be crystal clear on this. this happened while governor northam was in medical school. not that this is ever acceptable ever. let me be clear. he wasn't 8 years old. he was in medical school when this happened. i want to say as well i had this photo, ed. i had it october 9th. i was emailed this photo by someone and the way it was emailed made it difficult to verify. we don't have enough time for me to explain why i couldn't verify it. but, i'm only bringing that up because the way it was sent to my i'm sure other people had it, too. notably some prominent politicos, probably on the democrat side medias as well. i'm wondering if i had it in october of 2018 why other people didn't run with this until we had the infanticide moment on wtop. emily: dan, how do you explain that that's such a
5:06 am
disingenuous approach if it's all for strategy anyway how do dems and people on the left explain the outrage when things like this happen? >> you know, i think what happened here is northam quickly became really a liability for the democrats because he made a critical mistake. he discussed abortion in terms of what it really is. he mentioned the word infant which democrats never use when discussing abortions. he didn't use the clump of cells or the fetus and they made northam a liability. i wouldn't be surprised if this photo wasn't leaked by somebody on the left to change the conversation. emily, the photo was out there. again, i know some people are upset, i got some tweets this morning. a lot positive, some negative saying you should have run with this story. i'm not doing that if i can't verify it's true. if you want to do that go right ahead. when you are in conservative media and, ed, you know this better than anyone, being a journalist, i'm not, i'm an opinion guy. if you are wrong on the conservative side, you are done. you are finished.
5:07 am
if you are wrong on the liberal side, like they have been wrong about trump from day one, you are giving a prettpulitzer prize: i was a criminal investigator at one point. and the way it was sent to me made it very, very difficult to verify. i'm not going to do that if i'm not sure it's true. and if you want to do it go my bag of what northam said about an infant. he crossed that line talking about late term abortion and infanticide. here's what he said and here is democrats trying -- when they are asked about it they have nothing to say. watch. >> in this particular example, if a mother is in labor, i can tell you exactly what would happen. the infant would be delivered. the infant would be kept comfortable, the infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired, and then
5:08 am
a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother. >> no, i don't. comments have been mischaracterized. the personal insults toward me i really find disgusting. >> i have no idea what he said. i have no idea what's happened there. >> i don't know what he said. >> you have no idea what he said? >> i have not seen anything. >> you have not heard about it? >> i have been in retreat. >> considering the comments from governor northam yesterday how does it make it harder for pro-life democrats in the party and does that cause problems at all. >> i'm sorry, i just don't know what he said yesterday. pete: he says it won't apologize for it and they don't know anything about it, dan. >> see know evil, hear no evil. i have written a few books. what they tell you is you have to put the reader in the scene. write it in such a way that he are living it that's exactly what northam did in that interview wtop. he put the listener in that
5:09 am
room as a breathing child of god was in that room and a, quote, decision was being made. and for the first time a lot of people heard what late term abortion or in this case not abortion, an actual child, what that policy involved. really was. and that's why he became a severe liability for the democrats who have been feeding us the clump of cells fetus line forever and if we are talking about space aliens and not a life, a god-given life of a human being. and that's why northam had to go. emily: dan bongino thank you so much for joining us this morning. ed: bag of donuts. >> thanks, guys. emily: all right. turning now to your headlines. vladimir putin firing back overnight pulling russia out of the cold war nuclear treaty threatening to develop new missiles. the kremlin claiming only only launch new weapons if the u.s. does. this coming a day after the u.s. suspended the treaty due to repeated russian violations which russia has denied. senator chuck schumer's communications director is forced out due to

5:26 am
from both sides. >> sure. well, we have an awesome son, his name is kohl. he is 11 years old. he happened to be born with that extra 21st chrome zom. he is a great big brother to his sisters grace and brianne. and i have only become a stronger advocate for the value and the potential of every life because i see the influence of him on our family, on our circle of friends. and i can testify that he brings us joy every single day. ed: congresswoman we can see i haven't had the honor of meeting him i hope i do some day that smile on his face that appears to light up the room and see the smile on your face. probably after a long week of gridlock in washington where you get to see him and see how happy you are in those photos as well. i want to bring your attention to john franklin stephens. >> yes. ed: he is also an advocate who has been out there many times from the special olympics and elsewhere. is he a young man with down syndrome. here was his message yesterday on "fox & friends." >> about abortion, i don't
5:27 am
want to make it illegal. i want to make it unthinkable. politicians change laws. i want to change people's hearts. ed: that is just so remarkable when you cut out the politics and talk about heart. >> it's so persuasive. how do you explain or how can you attempt to explain then the kind of feedback and push back you get from other congress people? >> frank stephens is having a powerful impact. i was in the room last year when he testified in front of the house appropriations committee. and he testified about him. he said i have a life worth living. despite what other people may say, my life is worth living. and at the end of his testimony, both sides, everyone in the room stood up, gave him a standing applause. but, also, all of the members of the committee, the republicans and the democrats, i had never seen anything like it. it was so powerful and we
5:28 am
need more of those voices. and people really looking at each person as having potential and value. ed: you make such a great point. again, it's nonpolitical. who is against seeing someone like that actually live a wonderful life and, yet, you hear voices on the other side, congresswoman, here in the state of new york. this law that's now on the books. people have been celebrating the idea that you can choose to have an abortion right up until the moment of birth. and then governor northam who we started talking about about with this racial controversy his push for this law in virginia which hasn't been passed yet that would allow you to still basically kill a baby after it's born what people are calling infanticide. do you think people on the left may change their mind after both the controversy involving the governor but also the message talking about your own son living a fruitful, wonderful life? >> amen. well, it's heart-breaking. it's heart breaking to see the law in new york. i would just urge people to
5:29 am
take a step back, you know, because of technology, we can look into the womb. we can see that development of the baby day by day. and it's the most amazing thing in the world. you know, i became a mom later on in life. and it's the most amazing thing that i have ever done is bring a new life into the world. and i would just urge people to just take a step back, really consider what is going on and how precious those newborn babies are. and to really, let's just consider what each person has to offer, their values, their potential and celebrate each person. that's what we need across the board. emily: absolutely. representative cathy mcmorris rogers thank you for joining us this morning. ed: absolutely. give our best to kohl as well. >> he is watching. ed: hey, cole. emily: congressman tri chip roy taking a trip to the border. >> proudly back in texas and

5:37 am
and. brian: you knew going in. >> i knew going in and i had a chance. i was actually drafted after my junior year because i spent a year in junior college. dallas and kansas city drafted me late in late rounds. i didn't ever think i would play professional football again. but i was still young and all of a sudden in the service i was 27 in my fourth year and i said hey, if i can play at 23, i could play at 27. i decided to get out to play the year before i was -- my obligation. so, i was able to play at the age of 27, yeah. brian: it's amazing. went on to play 11 seasons and it was concussions at the age of 38 that pushed you out. now that's a hot topic at the nfl. >> i had some concussions. i had a doctor fred plumb who at that time was at the cornell medical school he told me i have had too many and have you got to be careful. you should actually -- i was going on 38. he advised me to retire.
5:38 am
and if i was younger i probably wouldn't have. but concussions at that time they weren't like today but back-to-back concussions are -- can be dangerous. today players sit out. if you have a concussion. brian: you like that. >> oh, yes. they are doing a lot more to try to protect players from concussions. brian: as much as you like talking to us on fox news. you come here with the usaa the message of usaa the nfl and military. what does that mean to you. >> the usaa salute to service is a big deal. the army-navy game and also for the super bowl. they are really -- i'm a usaa member when i graduated 1965. i might have been their first member, no, no. they are just great company. i'm able to spend some time with the military because of usaa. and i really enjoy that. brian: book on belichick. bill belichick you knew him as a kid. you knew his dad. you came out for the coin

5:46 am
pete: welcome back. chip roy taking it upon himself to go to our southern border to get the real story what's happening there he tweeted out this video showing scores of illegal immigrants being apprehended in the mcallen, texas area. the congressman pointing out the lack of fencing and technology in that sector. congressman chip roy is here with more this morning. congressman, thanks for being here. i have been down in that sector recently as well. the border patrol willing to give access. you were there on the border with them at night. what did you see? >> good morning, pete. great to talk to you again. i was down there with my fellow congressman dan crenshaw. and what we saw was frankly pretty shocking. this is not my first time at the border. i have seen a lot of the problems. what we are having today is essentially a daily caravan.
5:47 am
we saw upwards of 800 to 1,000 people coming across our southern border through the rio grande valley sector. i personally saw about 150, went down, spoke to them in my broken spanish and got some understanding about what's going on and the one thing you know for sure is that the cartels have operational control of our southern border particularly along the rio grand valley sector. you know. this you have talked to the border patrol. they are making enormous profit running people across the border, endangering american citizens and the lives of the migrants in the process. it's unconscionable that we as a nation most powerful nation the world has ever known are allowing this to happen in our backyard where these little girls and kids are getting exploited by cartels as they move through the rio grand valley. and one thing we learned is that the state in mexico right across the border from the rio grande valley area and the united states is a level 4 danger zone, which makes it a no travel zone in our state department which makes it more dangerous than even honduras and el
5:48 am
salvador and guatemala and the countries people are coming from because the cartels have so much power. pete: level 4 is the same level as afghanistan and libya. yet, we are debating whether a wall would be helpful when i'm sure you talk to border patrol agents and each one i talk to down there says where we have a physical structure the number of people crossing our border drops dramatically. is that what you have heard also? >> yeah. there is no question. this idea that fencing and physical assets don't work is insane. just look at the rio grande valley sector itself. on the eastern portion, closer to the gulf, we have significant miles of fencing and infrastructure and roads and the western portion we have very little. 94 pierce of the traffic of the rio grande valley comes through the mcallen section the western section of the rio grande valley sector. fencing clearly works. we saw in california where we saw the fencing added in the mid 19990s. you had 500, 600,000 apprehensions a year. now you have closer to 30,000. the idea that fencing doesn't work is completely silly the border patrol knows it they are literally
5:49 am
begging us to come down and give us the resources they need. more agents, fencing, cameras so they can do their job. pete: they are begging but nancy pelosi is not listening. have you heard her public comments about no money at all for physical barriers. what's your message to the speaker? >> the speaker of the house is embarrassing herself. she should get her head out of her rear end and stop ignoring what's happening on our southern border so we can protect american citizens and protect the migrants who seek to come here. it's not just about doing the physical barriers it's ending the asylum. we need to change it it's all political posturing and embarrassing for the speaker of the house and representatives to be shutting down the house after less than two days last week where we get in a debate show boat instead of doing her job. pete: would you support an emergency declaration from the president? >> i would lining to see what the president has to say. i will say this we have an emergency on our border that needs to be dealt with we have got to look at the laws. i want to make sure congress does its job.
5:50 am
pete: we all want congress to do its job, too. but we have been waiting around for quite some time for that i know you are trying to do your part. representative, thank you for your time. we appreciate it? >> thanks, pete. pete: still ahead dr. sebastian gorka joins us. plenty going on around the globe. we will ask him about that. plus the super bowl isn't the only game in town this weekend. you display heard them during my interview with the congressman. puppy bowl adorable players from team rough an ruff and team fluff. that's real. they are joining us next ♪ ♪ but you can believe this, real esurance employee nancy abraham. look her up online. esurance, it's surprisingly painless.
