>> she has the super bowl. >> check out my twitter feed, we have a picture. [laughter] >> check et out. see you tomorrow. >> have a great saturday, everybody. [cheers and applause] >> still can't see way to common ground. here comes another government shutdown and we are on it. president waiting things out in mar-a-lago, talk he's preparing for emergency at the border. not just among democrats like mitch mcconnell is very worried if the president does that. republican senator kevin krame ri might be okay with that. then there were 9 for now, she's

running for president. they will make it official today just after new jersey senator cory booker did the exact same thing yesterday, let's just say there will be others, many others coming soon. this is the group that you need, maduro is not going anywhere. military option we might be considering to get the military guys to budge. remember when the media was blasting the president for being in the saddle with vladimir putin, now they are blaming for risking nuclear war with putin. you just can't win if you're donald j. trump. all that and super bowl on what it takes to win the big game. who handles the pressure and chef extraordinary on creating your own for the game. it's really all about the food.

let's build this news pyramid because the delicious cavuto live is ready to turn it down. neil: all right, live in richmond, virginia, they are calling for the virginia governor to resign over the school year football that shows him and another man in black face in ku kluz klan to get him out. garrett tenney in richmond, virginia, garrett. >> those calls to resign are coming from across the board, republicans, democrats and growing list of liberal activist groups, on friday the photo surfaced from 1984 medical school yearbook, the governor released statement confirming that he is in the photo but did not say which he is.

he was sincerely sorry and explains this behavior is not who i am keeping for today and the values i have fought in military and public service, i understand how this position shakes virginians faith in that commitment. despite that, a few hours later released video apologizing but also saying he has no plans to step down. >> i'm deeply sorry, i cannot change the decisions made nor can i do my harm caused then and today but i accept responsibility for my past action and i'm ready to do the hard work of regaining your trust. >> he is facing a growing title wave of calls for him to resign including from several top-leading 2020 democratic candidate, julio castro and

gilibrand. black face in any manner is always racist and never okay, no matter the party affiliation, question not stand for such behavior which is why the ncaap is calling for resignation of ralph northam. the governor made comments about abortion bill. now, if the government decides not to resign, there's also the option that he could be impeached but legal psychological years discuss whether photo from 30 years ago amounts to impeachable offense. neil: the president in mar-a-lago where likely preparing for state of the union address, hey, gillian. >> president trump is spending super bowl weekend at mar a logo prepping for state of the union. he's prepare today declare national emergency in order to fund the border wall and hinted yesterday that tuesday might be the day.

>> i don't want to say but you will hear the state of the union and then you'll see what happens right after the state of the union. there's a good chance that we will have to do that. we are building a wall but a lot of wall but i could do it a lot faster the other way. gillian: this year's scene will be, quote, choosing greatness. president trump to focus on 5 key areas in the speech, first up immigration and what he calls the crisis at the southern border and also talk about trade specifically, u.s. relationship with china and renegotiated nafta deal infrastructure, he will talk about the need to rebuild america, he will also talk about health care emphasizing lower and cost for care and prescription drugs, finally address national security challenges around the globe, he plans to use speech to update lawmakers on military campaigns in multiple regions and efficacy. the president made message to congress is unity and plans to say together we can break decades of political stalemate,

bridge old divisions and heal old wounds and new coalitions. the extraordinary promise of america's future, neil. neil: gillian turner in washington. the number of piece of items he will mention in state of the union address, the pay continues uninterrupted here. a lot of people are looking at that and contrasting to all democratic candidates who have announced for presidency, the majority who say taxes have to be adjusted likely on the wealthy. fox business network dierdre bolton and dan. dan, begin with you on how the president plays tuesday? >> hopefully the message is unification. i know there's been talk that he's really looking to negotiate in good faith and try to get something done. it's incredible to think, neil, all the discord that we have

going on in washington is based upon one four-letter word, wall. if we can just get past that i think president trump wants to negotiate on the wall, on daca, on getting infrastructure. it makes absolutely no sense that nancy pelosi doesn't want to come to the table over one single issue. neil: it is interesting, even among democrats what constitutes a wall, see what happens, but obviously they're stuck on that label, but it means that unless the president does declare an emergency, we could be facing another shutdown, i can't imagine the market would flip over that? >> a second one would not be good, the siek of -- psyche of the country might head south. neil: you said it was not going to move market and you're right. >> amazingly so.

the state of the union is marketing, marketing your agenda and he has great statistic to market to the country based on tax cuts, based on what the democrats are proposing and the last week we have 90% proposal, 70% proposal, 77% state tax, wealth tax and a tax on every other tax. neil: that's why you've been sweating. >> tax cuts, regulatory cuts has engineered a lot of the economy. neil: i love the state of the union because speak ser right behind and he will talk about wall, talk that up, talk about the speaker and so she's in a bit of a box there even though you have to look respectful but not too happy. >> listen, 100th month of job creation. he's been tweeting especially yesterday, jobs, jobs, i mean,

that's a pretty -- neil: you don't want to interrupt, even talk about raising tax. >> right, and i think to your point, polarization of people who are suggesting the 70%, the 90% taxes. even for people that are moderate they begin to wonder, why is it about ripping down success instead of lifting other people up and difference to cory booker, he said that you can tell -- i heard as well the candidate of love i think is what he said too. neil: sparticus of cash, i think. they are very real and the two sides are very far apart and could mean in a couple of weeks they don't solve this and the president does have to declare an emergency. does that dysfunction which i know watching and maybe markets

rattle your investments? >> i don't think so, neil, the market is not showing that they're affected by any of this. look, 70% tax rates, 90% tax rates, they are not going to happen in near future, it's really -- >> from your mouth to god's. neil: i was worried. >> i know that affects you more than the rest of us but it is concerning as dierdre said that you will tear down the most successful people for how they built themselves up. it's completely un-american and one other point, when aoc had brought up this issue, if you noticed maxine waters -- neil: now become a symbol. >> maxine waters in latest statement when asked about that, was not giving a lot of buy-in 70% tax cut because she is -- there's a play as to who will be the star of the left and maxine

waters is not going to give in, she just said, we need to do something about the taxes but she did not say, yes, 70% at the tippy top is the answer. gillian: one of the reasons the middle class has been crunched in the country, higher education costs and health care costs like 130% higher than they were during the two decades and that's where the middle class is feeling it. president trump, he's starting to talk about lower medical costs, lower drug costs. neil: if they can't coddle together anything about a wall, what makes you think they will make progress on health care, any of the stuff? >> just remember for about a year, drug companies were actually lowering cost in the last few months. >> they were but they took their foot off the gas.

>> january 1st, big-time. for me the biggest story is how strong the economy is here. i'm surprised. this job's number that came out in spite everything that is hitting us in the news, europe is weakening, china is weakening, we really are a developed country of developed countries, the strongest out there and i'm actually amazed. that's something he should be yelling and scheming about -- screaming on tuesday night. the trend remains darn good. neil: it does, all right, guys, thank you, we do have video follow mar-a-lago in west palm beach, the president on his way to golf course, i get this all of the time when i'm on way my to botchy ball, anyway, when you're president of the united states they follow you, he's golfing, i don't know who is -- a foursome?

>> foursome. >> plus secret service. neil: thank god there's golfers to brief me on this. we are covering live on fox business network, only place not only coverage of that address but market fallout here and around the world and foreign market action, bret baier is perfectly fine saying just watch neil and dvr me, the guy is a saint. in the meantime the super bowl, the favorite from -- for me is the food, the favorite part -- i take nothing away from these guys but this guy is phenomenal and only i can eat this. is the crew aware of that? sapparently not. more after this.

it's like having your cake and eating it too. ask your broker if they offer award-winning full service and low costs. how am i going to explain this? if you don't like their answer, ask again at schwab. schwab, a modern approach to wealth management.

>> what's in my mind? i think there's a good chance that we would have to do that. neil: certainly thinking about it. the president saying national emergency might be the only thing to do that conference committee that's gathered up made of republicans and democrats can't cobble together something by the 15th, the emergency route that would avoid that but also invite a lot of legal challenges, republican senator of north dakota, budget committee member, kevin kramer, always good to have you, thanks for coming back. >> my pleasure, thanks for having me. neil: if they can't cobble something, he will would have to do something, that's state of the emergency on the border, mitch mcconnell we are told, senator, is very adverse to that and that it could set a dangerous precedent, how do you feel? >> well, national emergencies have been declared lots of times by presidents. the difference is it doesn't have bipartisan support like previous ones have and i'm sure

the leader is concerned about that and the potential for backlash should the president choose to do this, but let's be clear, donald trump is a man who lives up to his threats. he doesn't make idle threats, the good news is the conference committee and the congress has two weeks to avoid it and i think that's the signal that the president is sending to all of us, this is real, he has certainly researched it, the legal team researched it, i talked to him in the middle of the week, i know he's serious about it, so right now the job is on donning avoid it. neil: do you think a lot of this could have been avoided if the president didn't put the functioning of the government on the line to get what he wanted, we might have had the funding on the wall had he not made it do or die thing? >> i'm not so sure because the ultimatim has opposed, we have

seen fighting as a result of the 35 days, i think, and the backlash, the political backlash, some might say she won the round of the battle but helped soften folks. i'm encouraged. i know republicans very well and the house members particularly, democratic members, henry claire, seasoned and professional creator and sent pretty good signals, this can be avoided if the speaker let's up to her promise. she said she would do that. neil: well, she's applying subtle pleasure. i did speak to henry claire, he has a different view of what is a wall, immoral, but the same

token, far more technologically advanced things you can do than build the wall and that's what democrats seem to be lining, does that concern you? >> well, what i would like to do is take all of that because everything that representative said it's true, there's lots of ways to do this, we need them all, technology allows for greater efficiency and perhaps we need less wall than what we would have needed but situational awareness that drones that fly over top and have incredible isr capabilities, so we can make everything more efficient, we need fewer people, we need to have situational awareness, there's a way to do it all, i don't think you have to have one or the other and i think that's what the president is committed to. neil: senator kevin cramer, more to add for the chorus, joe biden

adding himself to the list saying he should go despite governor apologizing of racist photograph of medical yearbook, we are on top of that, more next. [cell phone rings] where are you? well the squirrels are back in the attic. mom? your dad won't call an exterminator... can i call you back, mom? he says it's personal this time.. if you're a mom, you call at the worst possible time. it's what you do. if you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. it's what you do. where are you? it's very loud there. are you taking a zumba class?

a business owner always goes beyond what people expect. that's why we built the nation's largest gig-speed network

along with complete reliability. then went beyond. beyond clumsy dials-in's and pins. to one-touch conference calls. beyond traditional tv. to tv on any device. beyond low-res surveillance video. to crystal clear hd video monitoring from anywhere. gig-fueled apps that exceed expectations. comcast business. beyond fast. >> take a good look at your beloved candidate, they are nothing but hideous reptiles. we are aliens, but what are you going to do about it, it's a two-party system, you will have to vote for one of us. >> well, i believe i will vote for third-party candidate. >> go ahead, throw your vote

away. [laughter] neil: that was right after meeting of democrats when they heard howard schultz is entertaining a run in third party. i'm nile cavuto, pollster lee carter and congresswoman hayworth and mitchell. mitchell, you were telling me that someone like a schultz would swipe votes away and hand to donald trump. why is that considered a given? >> well, there's the whole idea if he runs as independent he will take votes away from democrats but i don't necessarily this it's true, independent candidate that could possibly take votes away from either party. when you look at it, the democratic party is moving too

far left, right, moderate democrats are looking for an even-keel candidates and moderates thinking trump is going far right. what a solution to have schultz in the middle and attacks that are coming not only coming from democrats and when i say not just politicians but also members of the press. i lee at the headlines that are coming out calling him idiot and all kinds of things -- neil: stop it already. you know, lee, it's interesting, though, i had the guy who worked with ross perot, they were third-party candidate, 90% of the vote. >> that's right. neil: bernie argued and i don't know if polls indicated at the time cut equally from george bush senior and clinton. what do you make that third-party candidate is spoiler?

>> look, that's exactly right. if you look at what's happening right now, there's a lot of republicans who held their nose and voted for the president and they say i like what he's doing for the economy, i don't like the way it's going. get a moderate candidate out there, somebody who said i'm not going to do medicare for all, that's the wrong thing to do, all of the policies we need to ground in and much more conservative principles quite frankly, i think he could pull from both sides, the victory for this president is he needs to pick up 5 percentage points in the polls. neil: net. >> net. neil: from everyone. >> from across the board. right now he could not win, he picks up 5 points which he could easily do if there was not a third-party candidate. he would be difficult to beat, frankly. i think that howard schultz can make it much more difficult for the president to have the path to victory. i think like wise the democrats, if you have somebody like kamala harris who has a lot of promise, other candidates with promise, if they go too far left, howard

schultz will pick up votes from them. you have to look at the states that he would influence, he would have a lot of influence like states over california, washington state. neil: you don't have to get a lot of votes, ralph nader in florida to disrupt the vote in 2000, they don't have to garner a lot but to do a lot of damage, right? >> you know, it's having been in political life and run for congress in swing state nonetheless, illustration of how challenging -- in a swing district, forgive me in a nonswing state, new york, but it could be exceedingly challenging to inspire people to come out and vote for you and to do the logistics required just to get in the ballot to make a difference. he doesn't necessarily have to be on all the states. neil: that's easier to do today, right? >> he has to have a ground game

from the start, we elect not by popular vote but electoral college, where the states he might be able to make a difference that would favor democrats, that went for president trump but went significantly for democratic candidates, this time, arizona, colorado. neil: he got 19% and didn't get single electoral vote. >> i think the president's base will come out and president trump is a bit like president obama in that way, he may not have had all the cocktails he might have wanted in 2018 but come 2020 especially if speaker pelosi continues to obstruct as she is, a lot of folks are going to say, on practical basis, we need to continue -- neil: what do you think of that? >> i don't know, i don't know about that but what schultz really has to do is he has to do a better job at his campaigning. i think right now he's not very strategic. neil: i think he's shocked by the reaction. all of the people were happy to take his money and now all of a

sudden they are turning on him. >> they are attacking him. i don't think he had a strong roll-out, when you look at kamala harris, strategic. neil: raised a lot of money. >> i think he's going to be sleeper, i think it'll go underground and messaging will come back and say, are we tired of polarization, let's have moderates, let's compromise, his message is very strategic and reach people but not those that are most vocal. those vocal on the far left and far right and we will not hear in i say a month's time, i think we will see a different result in a couple of months. >> it's awfully tough when you don't have the passionate partisans behind you. neil: you need votes, all comes down to votes, thank you very

much. apparently there's a big game tomorrow and it's called the super bowl and one of my greatest heros is here, joe, washington redskins and i love who was here building and i love everything about him and reputation except apparently the giants jersey, so rob, i know you're gifted at what you do, but we have joe from washington redskins, how do you feel about that? >> listen, i have nothing but love, but giants. all giants. neil: cut his mic. you know, get rid of him, keep the food and keep the canolis. someone told me my cardiologist might be watching. neil, everything is okay in moderation. today, doctor, we are not going to be doing moderation.

s. it was an instant savings and i should have changed a long time ago. it was funny because when we would call another insurance company, hey would say "oh we can't beat usaa" we're the webber family. we're the tenney's we're the hayles, and we're usaa members for life. ♪ get your usaa auto insurance quote today.

neil: maybe he has it right on greyhound day, he's predicting early spring because wild swings in temperatures are coming to america. chicago going from 23-degrees below zero earlier this week to 48 above tomorrow, that's 71-degree swing. that could make you very sick. minneapolis going from negative 28 to positive 36. 60-degree difference. across the midwest and through the east this is the type of swing we are seeing and adjustment we are seeing, i just know that a lot of people who

typically call out sick to super bowl may get sick because of that. national retail federation survey revealed that the number of people actually watching the big game, the super bowl could actually be down. i find that hard to believe but i want to get thoughts from super bowl winning quarterback joe theismann, joe, good to see you. >> always good to see you, neil, congratulations a few weeks, i know you celebrated your first year, sorry i couldn't be with you but it's wonderful to have you on saturdays to watch you. neil: you were on the first show, we appreciate that. we have wonderful jeff rob joining us and he admires greatly but he's a giants fan and he's so good at what he does, we let him in here. but what can you do, right -- >> everybody has issues sometimes, neil, sometimes people have issues growing up,

they are misguide a little bit but i totally accept that. neil: he's probably misguided like you say. let me ask you, you handled the pressure of the big game so well, i'm talking back in '83 and '84, back to back super bowls, how do you deal with that? i always think it's one thing to be ready for regular season game but it's very, very different for this -- for this kind of an event, right? >> it really is different, each round of playoff, everything faster, speeds up a little bit more, the decision process has to be quicker, the hardest thing to do is convince yourself that it is just another football game. you want to say that to yourself because you go to week of preparation, you know what you want to do, once you step in the football field it's a whole different world. you don't try to think about what's at stake because it's a legacy game. tom brady's legacy is set, the greatest quarterback that has ever played the game.

neil: wait, wait, a wait a minute, the greatest quarterback to play -- i'm talking to the greatest quarterback that played the game. [laughter] neil: what is it with brady, he's like 85 year's old. >> he's 62. neil: what the heck? >> you know what it is, first of all, i think he's a genetic freak. genetics in the body allows him to do it. he takes great care of himself. the most important thing about our position his arm hasn't lost velocity, the fast ball is still there and as long as the fast ball is still there, tom will just continue to play. he loves this game like he did 19 years ago, like a kid and i think that's important. you know, i watch your show with a passion, i think i live my life through passion and that's what tom is all about, if you're passionate about something it carries you a long way.

neil: carries the team. i know you did the same with redskins but it's hard to do under the constant media of glare, you didn't have to deal with some of the things they deal with today and the scrutinize every minute of your day and every comment you've ever made and social media compounds that but just getting ready for the big day, how did you sort of block all of that out in. >> well, the thing you want to do, if you embrace it, it doesn't become a burden, be a part of it, be part of the questions and join the interaction with people that are asking it and then you walk away and focus on what you want to do, i think it's harder being a stinker in life than being a nice person, somebody get away from me, i don't want to deal with, this accept it and embrace it. that's what the game is all about. world will be watching it. there's people from all over the world that have the same question over and over and over instead of getting upset, i used to play a little game, how can i answer the same question in a different way every time, so

became mental exercise for me. but it's beyond -- it's become something so spectacular, so big that you have to try and block it out and once you get on the field, once you see the pageantry of this -- neil: obviously salaries are different, endorsement contracts are different. [laughter] neil: have you ever scratched your head, if only i had been born 20 years later? [laughter] >> no, you know what, i'm just thrilled to be where i am and i was talking to jack young yesterday and it was funny, you know, jack, when we played it was a different game, looked at differently and these young men are under such tremendous pressure from social media, commitments, from contracts, salaries, we just played the game and loved the game very much. they love it today but so many other things that they have to deal with.

would i have been want to be born today, the most i made was a million dollars, the fourth highest paid player in 1984. neil: amazing, how times have changed, i guess you can say. neil: i found out how the other anchors at fox are paid, it's annoying. [laughter] neil: great field memories and you were there for first show, we appreciate it, quite an example even to giants fans. be well, all right, enjoy the game. [laughter] neil: by the way, giants fan. he has catered to the stars and today catered to us. and a lot of people say what is heaven like, to me it's waking up for this, after this.

neil: you know, it sticks to my

head a little bit, some things do, fbi showing unusual show of force including navy seals outside of roger stone's home to arrest him andrade his home and i'm think to go -- thinking myself. they used more people than taking down osama bin laden. i've been thinking about it, you know who can give me good context on this, brilliant former federal prosecutor, john, help me with this, seems to be overkill but what do you make of it and is that, you know, procedure? >> good morning, neil, well, following joe theismann is a little daunting. neil: i hear you. >> of course, the proof of the pudding, not just monday morning quarterbacking but when he was taken to court and my main

office is in south florida, when he got to the courthouse he was locked up and the fact he's released on the bond only on signature agreed to by the special counsel's office so they can see he was not flight risk and not a danger. i just don't understand why they did it. i've not been a critic to have special prosecutor but emboldens their critics because i think it was act of poor judgment, i don't think it's the fbi. i think it's the prosecutor's office, i don't think we can get to micro managing how law enforcement executes a raid but the real question is should there have been a raid in the first place and the answer here is clearly no. neil: if you can help me with this, if you're going to destroy stuff and the feds, you might, maybe then and i guess that was the issue with the raiding paul

manafort's home, michael cohen's home but this seem disproportionate to that. >> well, that's just the point, what they doweled have done what they did with michael cohen, they could have done search warrant, taken what they needed and then giving him a notice to appear, so they would have accomplished both. let me tell you the difference in my mind, i represented new york stock exchange company where they came in with 20 or more agents with assault weapon, here is a difference, michael flynn, he was charged with lying but he voluntarily appeared. roger stone, the same and they brought out the storm troopers, the difference is flynn cooperated and that's the trouble. it shouldn't be cooperators can voluntary surrender, can't, what i always do is when i first started representation i always write to the prosecutor and i

say in the event charges are filed, notify me and my client and we will surrender and they only honor that some of the time and only when my client is going to cooperate. that just wrong. they should not do stuff like this when it's highly excessive, inappropriate and very scary too and discredit it is whole investigation. neil, you know, a trial would likely come a year from now and i'm wondering that's a signal of how long the mueller probe could last? >> mr. whitaker made the statement which everybody is wondering where that came from. i mean, that that's the question that the new attorney general will call special counsel and he will get briefed and maybe then we will get some answers but, no, it's not a sign that this is coming to an end quickly. all the eva de vallescar is --

evidence is seized. why they didn't ask for trial if it's coming to an end? educated guess, educated guess is that they still have a ways to go. neil: thank you very much. >> thanks for having me. neil: you can't be at the game, eat like you are, all right, you may not have a stadium for super bowl for ourselves but we do have a snackadium, the guy putting all this together and i'm not sharing one bit of it. joe, did you understand what i just said there? snot one bit of it. meet the creator dispute the giants jersey after this. check out the bass pro shops' and cabela's spring fever sale for huge savings.

[laughter] neil: this is wild. i don't know if you can see, it's done like a stadium and like i said, heaven to me would be waking up to this. what do we have here? first of all, you have the team themselves in the middle. i don't know if you can make that out, guys, who is who here? >> unfortunately the redskins aren't on this.

get that wall. ellison. >> that's right, president trump discussed that idea or hinted at the idea of him potentially declaring a national emergency. when a reporter asked him about it, he said you'd have to wait and see until the state of the union and see what happens after it. i've spoken to senior republicans on capitol hill today and various republicans have told me that they aren't expecting the president to actually declare a national emergency during this speech. one person told me they think he'll sort of set the table for that after these bipartisan conference committee, after they finished their work on february 15th, but they don't think they'll pull the trigger during the speech. the president certainly left that possibility open. it's a move that would surely face legal challenges, something the president has acknowledged and it could create tension among his own party, senate majority leader mitch mcconnell, said he doesn't want mr. trump to declare a national emergency. the president is expected to focus on five key topics,

immigration being one of them. he's also expect today talk about trade, infrastructure, and a senior administration official described that part of-- that section of the speech as where he was focused on broadly rebuilding america. and also health care. mr. trump is going to try and convince congress to support of the administration's proposal to lower the cost of health care and prescription drugs and the last one we expect him to focus on national security. and the senior american officials say that'sen efforts around the world and advocating and reiterating his positions to end and draw down some of the u.s. military involvements abroad. president trump is expected to bring up venezuela. the officials not going into detail when asked about denuclear sayings as a country and the only mentioned by name is venezuela. mr. trump told reporters that details of a second summit with

nor korean union kim jong-un could come at the state of the union. one thing that people are often watching regardless of the president and the party in the white house who they invite to attend the speech. we are expecting to get some of the names, the guests from the white house on monday and of course, as in past state of the union addresses we expect those people, their stories to play some role in the president's address to the joint session of congress. neil. neil: all right, thank you very, very much, ellison barber in palm beach with the president. and steve is in caracas, venezuela. you have two competing to see themselves as the president of venezuela. the one who sees himself as president with military on his side, but demonstrations are planned? >> the demonstrationses underway, and they began an hour ago. you can hear this city reverberate. there are horns, whistles,

people shouting and drums beating. they're marching from four different directions and the opposition leader juan guaido will be a test of his support and backing. people power is all he's got right now besides the endorsement of the u.s. and 20 other countries. on the ground it's disputed, president nicolas maduro is in power. the u.s. launched oil sanctions and vice-president pence on friday telling a group of excited venezuelan-americans that all options are still on the table. >> to be clear, the struggle in venezuela is between dictatorship and democracy and freedom has the momentum. nicolas maduro is a dictator with no legitimate claim to power and nicolas maduro must go. >> one of the first moves the u.s. plans to make after the oil sanctions will be bringing

humanitarian aid here to venezuela, desperately needed surgical supplies, medicine, nutrition supplements all being brought in, this according to national security advisor john bolton. there could be a real snag here. one president maduro says we don't want the humanitarian aid from the u.n. and it's to take over. but juan evacuatedo wants humanitarian aid and asking for it. what will happen when the food and medicine reaches the border could be the first challenge. the military would be under an obligation to do something, right? you either accept the aid, which would help the opposition, or you don't, and you just embroil the opposition. >> exactly. do you drive away trucks full of surgical supplies, medicines that people are dying for here in venezuela? do you turn those trucks away? it seems like an ingenuous first challenge by the opposition to maduro. neil: all right, the military though, to your point, is still

so far, so far, the general level, staying with maduro? >> it's been really crack-free and unanimous up until today. today we saw the first defection, an air force general went on social media saying ma durr 0 e--- maduro is a dictator and aligning himself with the opposition. the first crack in the military just happened, neil. neil: thank you, my friend. steve harrigan. another update business related in this development that maduro is looking at selling some of the gold reserves in the country and it could be a couple of billion dollars, to the united arab emirates funds to do something, presumably to help the people or to support him. let's get the read from u.s.s. cole commander. what do you make of this? this could go one of extreme ways here and get very violent.

how do you avoid that? >> i think it's dicey now. the bottom line, neil, there's not a division within the venezuelan people. the divisions within the levers of power exercised by maduro. and at this point in time i think that the opposition, in fact, does have momentum and the freedom is the one that the people want. they've seen how the nation has devolved down into chaos, into economic anarchy. nothing seems to be working right now, but supporting the people. this was a revolution brought about by corrupt governments years ago, and that's why chavez came into power. maduro tried to keep it going, but now they're realizing that the only people benefitting are maduro, his cronies and the military. and eventually that's going to fall apart. >> you know what's interesting, too, you talk about, you're referring to hugo chavez who took control, popularly elected and a lot of people said he's a dictator and this is a country that had enormous riches on a per capita basis, used to be one

of the basis on earth. and that was squandered and i'm learning about lessons learned here, corrupt governments absolutely corrupt and that's what happened. they began to see the wealth that they had access to and rather than using it to benefit the people, to benefit infrastructure, to build up the country itself, and make itself a model within south america, they chose instead to increase and solidify their control of the congress, their control of the courts, their control of the military, and consequently, over time, i think that people realized that this so-called revolution has, in fact, fallen apart because it no longer benefits them. it no longer benefits the country and they are now beginning to get a voice, speak up and we will see the maduro regime fall. neil: if i could switch gears quickly commander, you've seen the outcry, celebrating the missile accord with the russians and says they're cheating and the same that said he is cozy

with vladimir putin. he will's risking war with vladimir putin. what do you make of it. >> right now the nuclear range treaty or inf had been violated by russia for a number of years, the u.s. tried to work with russia within the constraints of the treaty itself to get russia to recognize that the missiles they were developing, in fact, violated treaty provisions. russia is sitting in the cat bird's seat right now, they make the u.s. look like the bad guy since we're the ones pulling out from treaty that no longer works. by the same token, they're getting to develop weapons that face their primary threat on their southeast border. let's face it. china who is not party to any nuclear treat whatsoever now sits there and is building with epps that they say, well, we're using those to hit guam if the united states threatens us in the south china sea. if they can hit guam, they can hit moscow. china and russia have gone to war with each other before. when you look at the inf treaty we need to have dropped it and

russia would just as soon have it dropped so they can develop the weapons not so much to point at europe and threaten the united states, but more in fact to look at china and say, hey, we also have a vested interest in this continent as well. you are not going to expand and be a regional power without some challenge from us as well. neil: therein as' a message there, too. when we sign an agreement we mean for everybody to stick to it. commander, thank you for your service to this country as well. >> thank you, neil and great to be on again. neil: and if this isn't getting confusing, now virginia's democratic governor ralph northam isn't so sure he's in any of the so-called racist photos that popped up in a yearbook that goes back to when he was graduating from medical school. he had apologized earlier saying it was a mistake in the racist photos in 1984 and now questioning whether he's in them at all. kamala harris, joe biden, a host

of prominent democrat, including new jersey's and many others saying he should step down. northam has no plans to do so and is now questioning whether he's in the photos at all. >> it's a mess. more after this.

>> you catch earlier that poll on backing out of the missile agreement with the russians. that could send a signal to the chinese that if we sign a deal that we plan to stick with it. is that sending a message to the chinese? we've got deirdre boulton and, sam, do you think it's a signal there? >> i think so, it's good timing for us to do that, neil. there's so much on the line with china, we have to get this right, and i think sending a message to say, if you're not going to honor an agreement with the united states, we're not playing any games. we're not messing around, we're pulling out. we go back to tariffs. neil: how likely is that?

[laughter] >> i've been watching china for years, they supposedly rules and regulations and they've never followed it. look. neil: in other words, they've made promises in the past. >> of course, the same with russia. china is making good faith efforts right now, hey, look what we're going to do, buy some soy beans, all they're doing is buying back what they had. it's a start. i like that trump is tough. these are bad players, doesn't follow the rules and regulations, not just our rules and regulations. the world's rules and regulations and i'm surprised that europe and some other places aren't yelling as much as we are. neil: they're quietly hoping he succeeds. >> i think as much as president trump said i'm not globalist unapologetically. i think that a lot of these countries, europe, hoping that the trump administration is successful. it's not for the soy beans-- of course for the farmers it's

soy beans, it's about technology transfer, the new york times did this piece quoting department of defense retired officials saying, look, the chinese have stolen all kinds of data for us like f-15 information, f-35. i think we're in a hazy territory where economic theft and military know-how, intellectual property are overlapping and i think the next world war is more an intellectual property tech war, right? not so much a war of weapons. and listen, china has been effective at spying and stealing. they want to displace-- >> they say they don't do that. >> they say they don't do that, but-- >> let me just say this, russia built 100 missiles that they weren't supposed to build and no president before trump were yelling and screaming about it. maybe they were trying to negotiate in a room, but kept more and more. neil: a daily news cover that democrats are saying that he was switching from the cave to the

shutdown to this so he could get that monkey off his back. >> everything is nefarious from the democrats on trump. forget the fact-- >> it's the same camp says he's in twith the russians that he's now threatening nuclear war-- >> and the problem with china, saying for this, china does not have elections. they go their own way, they're a communist country. i'm not so sure they're just not going to say, okay, president trump we're going to do anything you're wanting. neil: lately they're hurting. >> china has 2 billion people and one thing their government doesn't want to have is 2 billion people hungry and unhappy because that risks their power. so, i don't knowing that-- >> so you've been arguing throughout that they need this deal more than we do. >> absolutely. neil: you could look at the latest numbers from the employment and everything to reinforce your argument. so, something's going to happen.

presumably next month when the two leaders meet. if it doesn't, are you worried? >> if they don't come up with a deal, then i think we have some real concerns about what could happen. neil: because, one, the tariffs, 25% tariffs and 200 million of chinese goods. >> i think if there's negotiating going on between trump and president xi. i think they will work out. i'm cautiously optimistic and i have been the entire time a deal gets worked out. >> the second biggest economy in the world has been tanking in china and their markets have been tanking, politically and people are upset there. it's a known fact, but whether or not that affects the people running the joint, now, time will tell. neil: yeah but you know, you can be president for life, but that isn't etched in stone if things are collapsing. >> they can take him out, there's a big political party there. they need to get something done, i don'ten if they will get something done. i think if something gets done, i think it's halfway and both

sides are going to say look how great this is. >> yeah, i think your point, all of this talk whether it's deficits or tariffs, i think those are red herrings, who controls the future of artificial intelligence. all of this is back and forth and i was in louisiana and i heard from farmers who are very worried, especially two weeks ago, about these soy bean tariffs. i feel there's a tacit agreement in the trump administration, we'll take short-term hits to really kind of restructure our relationship with china and to your point, he's the first president to probably do that in a few decades. neil: final word on the subject. guys, thank you very, very much. do not touch those sandwiches on the way out! >> keep an eye on them. neil: very, very good. they're all thin and fit, but i can outrun them for that food. trust me, i can outrun them. we've got another two weeks when we could look at another government shutdown. it's up to the conference committee. we've got a crucial member of that committee coming up. what he wants to see and how

quickly he wants to see it after this. saved an average of $412," you probably won't believe me. but you can believe this, real esurance employee nancy abraham. look her up online. esurance, it's surprisingly painless.

in in caracas, venezuela. there are protests going on. these are called for by the populous candidate, saying he's the legitimate president, juan guaido. these are in the thousands and guaido separately called for a convoy from aid from other countries including the united states, food, water, medicines, all types of things and let up to the military whether to let them in or not. they're in bit after box. if they don't accept it, they could look heartless and bo boomerang and cause more outrage. and if they do it could be a feather in the cap of guaido: they're looking at a famous john bolton scratch notes talking about 5,000 troops going to colombia right next door which is getting to be a regional

issue the whole world is following closely. then back this this country, the issue of a shutdown they're trying to avoid happening again. a man who sits on a key conference committee who will decide its faith. tom graves from the beautiful state of goeorgigeorgia. we've called on democrats, too, and none have called. >> we're 13 days away from another critical deadline in which the government could shutdown, it feels like garoned groundhog's day. oh, wait, it is groundhog's day. >> do you get the sense that democrats agree with nancy pelosi, no funding at all and that a wall is immoral. >> i think that some agree with her and put down a marker and she was defiant saying there would be zero funding for additional border wall, but then her colleagues, the rank and file members of the party who

see and believe the need for a border wall and additional security measures, but this week was really remarkable if you think about it. we had a conference committee meeting that started off well. is with a very optimistic, but through the process, a lot of concerns came up because it's a lack of transparency. there have been no more meetings and certainly not been a good faith offer by the democratic party. in fact their offer is zero. zero dollars for border funding, or border wall funding, no additional funding for additional funding agents and cutting investigators, it's just not good faith. neil: how would it go if not this friday, but next friday you had not come to an agreement. the president is certainly signaling that he's going to declare an emergency. how would you feel if he does? >> president is right in looking at the steps he could take. there are a lot of tools at his disposal, he's looking for alternatives to carry out his

duty as president to make sure that our country is secure. but before we get to that point, i'm, you know, very hopeful that maybe this week we'll see some movement in the conference committee and the speaker of the house, nancy pelosi will come up with a better offer and restart the process with good faith and start with some reasonable figures and numbers, and statistics and such, pull all of that together from experts and let's start this over again. neil: how would the conference committee work, sir, if you can educate me. you come to an agreement, some agreement on something and then is it to be given to the various party leadership in both houses? what's the procedure here? >> the committee, first of all, we have to meet and we have to discuss and we have to debate the different ideas, but the way the committee works is that when any kind of agreement is coming together, a consensus being built, amendments should be able to be offered. there should be votes within the committee. the votes occur on the house side first and then the senate

side next. each body has to vote and each body would have to pass those amendments or any final proposal. neil: can the body change what you guys have come up with and add things and come back to? the reason i'm asking these mundane questions, i could see a lot of time to do that and there's not a lot of time to do that. >> right, so to your point, not the bodies of the house and senate, but within the conference committee, we would vote as separate bodies, house and senate within the committee itself, but to the end of the day, nancy pelosi, it's her committee that she controls. it is her chairperson who chairs the committee, too. neil: all right. so, if mitch mcconnell were to get back to you or any prominent top tier republican and say don't vote for this, you'll vote however you feel, right? >> yeah, i'm going to-- i'm not representing the appropriations committee, i'm representing the republican conference. neil: i understand that. the same would be held democrats

on that committee. nancy pelosi might be urging something, but they can vote as they wish, right? well, we'll see they haven't done that yet. we'll see. at the end of the day if there's a government shutdown, it lies at the feet of nancy pelosi. she has more votes on the committee and her person, chairs the committee. and in the end if it's not produced that the president can sign it will be nancy pelosi's responsibility and burden to explain that. neil: best of luck to you, congressman. tom graves, conference committee member of georgia. we have a lot more on this, including the latest in the political grand standing for who wants to be the next president of the united states. it's getting crowded. tulsi gabbard will announce and a day after cory booker did the same. it's growing and growing and growing and then what? matologt consider treatments,

ask if xeljanz xr is right for you. xeljanz xr is a once daily pill for psoriatic arthritis. taken with methotrexate or similar medicines, it can reduce joint pain... ...swelling and significantly improve physical function. xeljanz xr can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened. as have tears in the stomach or intestines, serious allergic reactions, low blood cell counts, higher liver tests and cholesterol levels. don't start xeljanz xr if you have an infection. your doctor should perform blood tests before and while taking xeljanz xr, and monitor certain liver tests. tell your doctor if you've been somewhere fungal infections are common and if you have had tb, hepatitis b or c, or are prone to infections. xeljanz xr can reduce the symptoms of psoriatic arthritis. don't let another morning go by without talking to your rheumatologist about xeljanz xr. why go with anybody else? we know their rates are good, we know that they're always going to take care of us.

it was an instant savings and i should have changed a long time ago. we're the tenney's and we're usaa members for life. call usaa to start saving on insurance today.

>> all right. apparently, virginia governor ralph northam is going to make a statement at 2:30 p.m., after a dust-up over a yearbook photo that goes back to 1984. now he says some of the images are not of him. whatever the case, fox correspondent garrett tenney is in virginia. what are you learning? >> yeah, neil, he's going to hold a press conference at 2:30 this afternoon to make some kind of statement to the media about this and what we're gleaning

from-- what we're hearing from democrats on the state level, as well as the national level, governor northam is not going to be resigning. the state party of virginia, released tweets in a statement this morning, we made the decision to let governor northam do the correct thing and resign this morning. we have gotten word he will not do so this morning. we stand with democrats across virginia and the country calling him to immediately resign. he no longer has our confidence or our support. governor northam must end this chapter immediately and step down and let the lt. governor he'll virginia's wounds in moving forward. there have been growing calls for his resignation from democrats, political activists of all stripes for him to step down. and that growing pressure was outside the executive mansion where a few dozen chanted and called for him to resign from office after this photo from

1984 surfaced. >> thank you very, very much. again, the governor will be addressing constituents in about three hours. when that happens, fox will be there. in the meantime, let's get the read on this and any developments with lee carter, democr democratic strategist richie and former congresswoman nan heyworth. what do you think? >> governor northam has put himself in a difficult position to say the least. his own party is now against him, so, it's-- and apparently, he's trying to-- he's going to make the argument that that's not me in that picture. well, why is it on your yearbook page? unfortunately, we live in an era in which forgiveness is in fairly small supply. there's a lot of rage, outrage understandably. we're still -- we are still trying to resolve the original

sin in our history. i think it's distinctly ungracious of him not to resign. i think it presents a real problem. neil: over a yearbook photo that is in the '80s? i find it far more offensive the abortion measure that allows day-of abortion at the end. that i thought would have gotten people more upset democrats, and this yearbook photo, that's where the rage is. >> i don't think that we should compare this photo to the abortion policies that he talked about. and-- >> wait a minute, that's where you could-- stated there's some controversy. >> i think there's right to be angry about the abortion measure and anger on the photos. neil: there wasn't a lot of anger on the left and double standard. >> i take it, i have a

difference maybe because i'm african-american. i have a different feeling about seeing someone in a ku klux klan photo or costume whatever it was supposed to be, a robe and someone in black-face. that does not mean that prevents me from also having anger about the abortion policy. neil: understood. >> northam needs to go. neil: how do you force the paush? because you're saying we think you should leave office for something back in the '80s. but if he doesn't resign, how do you force the issue? because, would it meet, i don't know what the definition is in virginia to force, impeachment or something, this is an act in office, right? >> no, you can't really force him. i think you can put a lot of pressure on him and the party should put a lot of pressure on him to get out at this point. if it's true that it was not him, why was that not his first reaction, from the start?

if it was him. you've got a statement immediately apologizing. you cannot allow this time in crisis without saying anything and get away with it. we can all agree, right, left, center, for once we can all agree this is something to be outraged about and shouldn't be tolerated. it's a picture in the '80s, how you handle it today is how you'll handle it. >> and that's backtracked, that's the issue. neil: and at first, he apologized for it and then he questioned whether he was even in it. leaving that aside, all the presidential candidates we know, most of them, have blasted this. now the latest entrant will be tulsi gabbard today, all of 37 years old. she would be the 9th entry, am i right, pam? talking to my executive producer who is keeping track of this. we had tulsi gabbard on when the rumors were circulating she might want to run for president. take a look. the potential consideration of a presidential run, you're i think, around 37 years old.

do you think that's too young to run for president? >> no. neil: okay. there we go. have a nice day. no, seriously, thank you very much. i waited for her to explain the no. she didn't explain the no. nan, what do you think? >> she, i think congresswoman gabbard doesn't stand a chance in this democratic field. neil: really? >> well, she's already had to make-- speaking of, again, the era in which we live, she's had to make an apology rightly as a democrat and indeed for many of us who are not, for her past attitude toward certain aspects of lbgtq rights. neil: right. >> that bodes very ill for any kind. neil: do you agree? >> absolutely. i think it was her father who had an organization against gay marriage. >> she support it had. neil: there was a time when all

the prominent democrats, even barack obama against gay marriage. >> and the way she announced the candidacy, it shows the debacle, half of her team a leaving and half the staff is resigning. she apparently has a lot of fighting going on right now in hawaii right now within the democratic party. neil: you don't give her much shot. >> i find her to be forgettable. we've talking memorable and forgettable. >> i think a week after her announcement we'll be talking about-- kamala harris. neil: anyone is game? >> when you have so many people a few will rise to the top. i'm concerned for the democrats, they're going to face the same thing the republicans did in 2016 so many candidates they're going to split the vote so many ways somebody on the far left is going to have an opportunity to rise up. neil: somebody emerges as the nominee. >> we don't know yet. >> him or herselves a the one. neil: the only thing i envision,

lady, the snacks. i'm watching you as you leave. >> they smell so good. >> there's enough for the whole democratic field. neil: we're not sharing.

elements that are specific to super bowl. you have more media than probably any other event in, you know, any single day event in the world. then you have all the other unique features like the security perimeter. >> the super bowl is a level one national security event. people enter security check points about 300 feet from the building instead of at the stadium gates. instead of protecting from potential terror threats, people have been counterfeiting counterfeit super bowl gear, knock-off hats and jerseys. and law enforcement explain they're investigating a large number of drone operators who are violating the f.a.a.'s no-fly zone near mercedes benz stadium and confiscated several drones and say the pilots could face stiff fines and possible jail time. >> these drones go out of control or the pilot loses control of one, they can go into a crowd and cause serious injury and the other, of course, is when we look up into the air and

we see a drone flying in the air, we have no idea if it's friendly or someone that has nefarious plans and is weaponized. >> right now, the no-fly zone extends one mile from the stadium. on game night it extends 30 miles, neil. neil: all right. thank you very much. and on the site of the super bowl game tomorrow, we are lucky to have with us, rob. we told you about, he's a great chef, goes without saying. good enough to help out the host of the kitchen on the food network and also worked at rocco's dinner party and a number of productions, vh-1 and mtv. this will no doubt be on the highlight reel how he helped us out on cavuto live. why are you laughing? you've got to see what he's created. some. panelists begged me, can i see what he's created, the snackadian. yeah, you can see it, but you can't touch it after this.
