>> fox news alert shots fired on venezuela's border, riot police and teargas canisters flying as civilians beg for food and medicine the government forces there will not let in. live images from the border with colombia where there is a standoff between venezuelan troops and aid workers on the colombia side. we have been waiting this showdown for a couple days. mike pence is heading to colombia in the next couple

days. where mayor is welcome to america's news headquarters. jillian: a showdown over humanitarian aid in venezuela, today is the deadline for president maduro to end the blockade and brian is here with more on the battle. >> reporter: this is a volatile situation, dangerous situation in venezuela. you have the opposition leader, juan guaido, who the united states and 50 other nations recognize as the president of venezuela urging the masses to come and help these humanitarian aid trucks from colombia into venezuela. the opposition believes millions of people on their side, the maduro regime, nicholas maduro and his thugs will allow these

humanitarian trucks filled with food, medicine and diapers to come into venezuela. we have seen one truck into venezuela with international aid, not specifically us humanitarian aid but brazilian aid. we saw yesterday two people killed on the venezuela brazil border. we know that juan guaido treated the first humanitarian trucks filled with aid has made its way past the border. he has been tweeting all morning he released a video moments ago, a message, those who are for maduro. take a listen. >> i will translate for you. this is a struggle for all venezuelan. the time is now. we asked to side with the constitution. today venezuela needs you,

venezuela needs all of us united. we call on you to defend and protect our people. the time is now. juan guaido sending a message to those supporting the maduro regime letting them know we need you to stand with us. there is a sense of momentum. you can see the people. there has also been violence already. we saw a red bus on the border, protesters with a bus on fire and tried to mess with the bus. there have been some standoffs where you see venezuelan military members and protesters looking at each other, tense situation. we are talking about a situation where teargas was used on protesters. protesters continue to gather. it is about getting military and aid inside. juan guaido was in colombia for a live aid concert which richard branson the billionaire put on. he made his way into colombia to

raise $100 million and he has been on the border all morning and on these humanitarian trucks and urging people to stand by them as they put these trucks in. you can understand why this is a volatile situation because president maduro is saying the humanitarian aid trucks are nothing but a farce, warning they are going to not allow these trucks in because they believe it is a trojan horse of sorts and the united states is trying to interfere and overthrow the regime. that has been going on all morning. the big question now is where the military is going to stand. we have seen video of three national guardsmen on the bridge between colombia and venezuela defects from venezuela to the side of the opposition and hope the opposition that more national guardsmen and members of the military will come towards the side of the

opposition, making their way into venezuela. 220 tons in colombia right now. you can see the folks are gathering and we will keep an eye on it. jillian: the top military brass are pondering whether they should throw their support behind opposition leader juan guaido and away from maduro. >> reporter: exactly right. leland: with that we bring in florida republican congressman member of the house foreign affairs committee and expert on south america from his home district in south florida, congressman, good to see you. you watch these pictures and youout and realize there are dozens of countries who face the

same type of humanitarian crisis venezuela does. at least a dozen or more countries with strongman dictators like nicholas maduro who engage in horrific tactics condensed their own people. why is what we are seeing now so important to americans no matter where you live? >> venezuela has been a strong ally of the united states for many years until chev is took over in 1998, a strong strategic partner because of their petroleum reserves. we have a clear and present close by interest in making sure the situation resolves itself. also the average venezuelan has lost 20 kg in two years, even the worst places in africa are not as bad as venezuela. leland: they call it the maduro diet, people who lost so much weight. you are on house foreign affairs. one thing to have a former ally in venezuela going through this and bringing it into the fold.

how does this relate geopolitically when you think about china and especially russia who were patrons of maduro and his regime? >> it will be a very interesting thing when this turns which i'm confident we are reaching a tipping point. i am confident it is going to turn but they say with all this cost and collateral they can't access. heather: there are reports cuban mercenaries and or cuban military have taken the place of maduro's closest presidential guard and some of them are running the show. also reports of the russians having advisors in venezuela. if they want to fight this thing out and decide not to go quietly, what are the options for the united states? >> first of all it is an interesting development, the cuban militia would be having to

take arms meaning the army is continuing to retract itself in the conflict which is a positive sign for us. i think the united states needs to back brazil and colombia, answer venezuela and offer them support as we make sure every venezuelan knows there's food all around the border waiting for them if we can just get it in. leland: obviously the leader of the venezuelan opposition, juan guaido, saying that as well. some american politicians disagree with you. among them bernie sanders. listen to what he has to say. >> is juan guaido the legitimate president of venezuela? >> what has to happen, there are serious questions about the recent election. many people feel it was a fraudulent election.

>> should he go? >> i think he has been very abusive. that is the decision of the venezuelan people. leland: why is he wrong? >> it doesn't get better than that. the socialist is siding with maduro against the rest of his own country and the people of venezuela and he wants to be president. leland: is there a lesson to be learned in terms of what happened in venezuela as we watch these prongs of people in venezuelan flags that are hungry and sick without food and without medicine? is there a parallel between the policies of maduro and chavez and the policies the democratic hopefuls are promising as well? >> we've seen all around the world for many years socialism and autocracy do not work. democracy and freedom and free enterprise are a better environment for people to raise

their families and provide for them. it is unsettling to see americans calling for socialism. leland: we appreciate you being with us. something we are going to watch the next couple hours and the next couple days and we will have you to talk about it. >> have a great day. jillian: donald trump is facing several legal and legislative challenges to his national emergency declaration on the southern border. even some republicans joining their democratic counterparts in opposing the declaration. how many republicans are set to jump ship and support the democrats resolution? >> reporter: in congress and the courts as well as through the court of public opinion. on tuesday the house will vote on a resolution of disapproval which would allow congress to end the national emergency, democrats and the number of republicans say there is no real emergency that justifies the

declaration. on friday in laredo, texas, nancy pelosi says congress has constitutional responsibility. >> we will be fighting him on this usurping of power, violating the constitution of the united states and congress and the courts and with the american people. this is the path i would not recommend we go down. leland: the legislation is expected to sail through the democratic controlled house and the senate will be more of a challenge. democrats need four republicans to support it. only two, so they may vote for. a handful of others expressed concern over the president that this use of emergency power could set. donald trump was confident republicans will support and even if they don't, there is no way he could sign it.

>> everybody knows we need border security, we need a wall. it is a bad subject for the democrats. we need a wall. will i veto it? 100%. 100%. i don't think -- we have too many smart people that want border security so i can't imagine it will survive. i will veto it yes. leland: it would be the first veto in the administration and not a lot of optimism congress combustor of the two thirds vote necessary to override it but this is just the first of many fighting this battle. jillian: don't underestimate the wrath of congress when they feel they have been circumvented by the president. leland: a fox news alert as we await a court hearing for our kelly, the famed r&b silver -- singer will face a judge today on 10 count of aggravated criminal sexual abuse involving four victims. at least three of which

according to police were underage. matt finn joins us from the windy city outside a courtroom of sorts. what do we expect? >> reporter: in a few hours, our kelly will stand before the same judge in the same courtroom where jussie smollett appeared 48 hours ago. the state attorney, not be released on bond today. one of the big questions is whether the judge will hand down a bond and if kelly epstein will have enough cash on hand to bail them out today. our kelly turned himself in to chicago police last night. the indictment against going to graphic detail about the alleged sexual abuse by four women, three of which were underage at the time. here is his attorney responding to these charges. >> the state attorney succumbed to public pressure, pressure from grand standards like michael avenatti and brought these charges. mister kelly is strong, he has a

lot of support and he is going to be vindicated on all these charges. >> reporter: kelly was recently first into the spotlight for sexual abuse allegations by a lifetime documentary the profiles many underage girls who alleged sexual abuse allegations, one woman claimed kelly coerced her as a minor. >> i was young and starstruck but now that i am an adult, i feel hurt by what he did to me. i was only 16 years old. under the influence of alcohol and marijuana that was provided to me. >> reporter: of convicted he faces 3 to 7 years on each of this 10 count against him and michael avenatti claims he has video that depicts our kelly involved in a sexual act with a girl who was 14 years old. leland: we haven't seen avenatti

make good on that claim. matt finn, back to you at the court proceeding as it gets underway. jillian: the stakes could not be higher, donald trump preparing for his second formal trip overseas to meet with north korean dictator rashida tlaib -- kim jong-il. the owner of the new england patriots facing charges of soliciting a prostitute at a florida massage parlor. rescued from the rapids. a young couple trying and failing to cross floodwaters in arizona. they need a helping hand.

when i went on to ancestry, i just put in the name of my parents and my grandparents. and as soon as i did that, literally it was like you're getting 7, 9, 10, 15 leaves that are just popping up all over the place. yeah, it was amazing. just with a little bit of information, you can take leaps and bounds. it's an awesome experience.

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. leland: justin the neck of time young couple trapped by raging floodwaters in arizona took a team of rescuers to get them out. there was a 911 call from the couple as they tried to cross the creek and got stuck in the middle. we have seen this play out so many times. a happy ending here. there is major flooding

throughout arizona after three days of heavy rain. jillian: donald trump is about to travel overseas to meet with north korean dictator heather nauert -- kim jong un. joining me to preview the president's agenda is his former national security council, chief of staff fred slice. you are fresh off of meeting a few days ago with the president in palm beach where you said is out for the comet is largely optimistic. that is great but what about the fact that so many of his own advisors seem to be saying they are not at all sure this is the right moment? >> the president was very optimist, proud of his achievements in the relationship with leader kim.

he said the halt of nuclear missile tests is a big step forward and he got some unexpected support in an article published in the washington post, a former director of los angeles our most national amateur, doesn't like republicans or this administration and he said clearly that what the president was done in stopping the nuclear missile test and sent back these dangerous programs. this debate, what will be agreed to, the president is not going to agreed to much in exchange for too little. jillian: he had some success in deterring kim from testing nuclear weapons and missiles but that is not the big kahuna. the big deal is denuclearization and all intelligence we've seen publicly shows he's not taken any real steps. isn't that the number one goal?

>> the word denuclearization, no one was talking about that before donald trump became president. the fact that is a slim chance or longshot chance for peace is something this president created and it will take work. north koreans are used to playing administration. i played people who would like to offer concessions in exchange for insufficient concessions from north koreans. the president is not one of them and mike pompeo keeping a close eye on this. >> how will it be if the president walks away from this? traveling overseas to meet with kim. the president's time is a precious commodity, takes a lot of energy and staff time. if he doesn't walk out with some document that he can show the world they agreed to this, this and this, how bad will it be? >> we are close to significant achievements at the summit, inspections of the nuclear site and missile test site. jillian: they will agree to

inspections face-to-face? >> close to getting an agreement on that and that would be a step forward. if we could get an agreement on the nuclear site, which is being discussed, that would be huge. i don't know if we will get to the summit but when i hear people criticizing where we are, where were we when the administration began when north koreans were ready to test icbms on the east coast of the united states, these were offensive weapons and the president stop the tests of them. >> the president put a lot of stock in his own interpersonal relationship with kim, not just him but all world leaders. he tends to evaluate the strength a bilateral relationship based on his interactions. in this case do you trust that whatever kim says is something that will translate into real output? >> the president has thrown out

traditional diplomatic rules. all these summits, it is precooked, nothing is negotiated at the summit and interpersonal relations play a small role and he got leader kim out of his backward socialist cocoon, showed him a movie of what a denuclearize north korea would look like and he is using this relationship to move it forward. so far he has achieved something significant. jillian: the latest fox news.41% of americans disapprove of how donald trump is managing north korea and 46% approve. a 5 point margin. how much of the summit is a big move the numbers further in the president's favor? if he focused on the optics, on domestic issues -- >> he is not doing this for his

approval rating but because it is the right thing to do and dealing with a significant threat to national security. this is one of the few things barack obama told the president personally could have led to a war during the obama administration. the president's position -- >> president obama's team denies it. >> there's nothing -- we will never know what was said in the car driving to the inauguration but there's been significant achievements and the american people, many democrats have to concede the president achieved something significant though there is a long way to go. leland: thank you for providing insight. we learn something every time. much more on donald trump's meeting with the north korean dictator tomorrow on fox news sunday. check your local listings for the time and channel.

a new special, and henry will cover the meeting live from vietnam tomorrow 8:00 to 9:00 eastern. leland: life pictures from the venezuela colombia border as we speak, the clashes continue. john bolton, the national security adviser tweeting support for the president, that the united states recognized the dictator that is in charge and keeping humanitarian aid out. we will tell you what the national security adviser had to say. a crackdown on sex trafficking in florida and charges against the billionaire owner of the new england patriots. what robert kraft has to say and at the 69 charges he made up a hate crime despite a mountain of evidence. we talk to a talk radio host about why so many over the hoax.

>> as we learn more it certainly seems the only person to blame in this case is jussie smollett. another sad example of people so quick to attack and come after this president. ♪ let newday's operation home help you buy a home with no down payment and not one dollar out of pocket for closing costs. with automatic authority from the va, newday can say yes when banks say no. so stop renting. start looking. now when you walk into an open house and say "this is the one" ...it really can be. go to operationhome.com or call 1-800-406-6926 this is the all-new it's beautiful.. beefy and mean looking. it's the strongest, most advanced silverado ever. the cab is bigger than the last generation. it's the first truck i've seen make you look small. but that's not all... whoo! oh my... whoa! the silverado has more cargo volume than any competitor.

it is not maduro and a band of thieves, choose the road of democracy. jillian: robert kraft, owner of the new england patriots faces charges for involvement in a prostitution ring out of florida. it is part of an ongoing sex trafficking operation. more on the charges he faces and potential for jail time. >> reporter: police planted cameras and massage parlors on the florida coast as part of the sting. they have video of craft in the act on two occasions. they are charged in sex trafficking.

it took eight months. occurring to investigators the women working in sexual servitude where patrons paid $59-$79 per services. craft is accused of paying for sex at the asia spot last month. the franchise owner faces two counts of blitzing someone to commit prostitution but the misdemeanor is unlikely he will be formally arrested. in palm beach county misdemeanors are charged in the mail. if you look at a state there will be a warrant for your arrest but it can be important. and spokesman for kraft released a statement saying we categorically deny mister craft engaged in any illegal activity because of his judicial matter, we will not be commenting any further. the nfl's as it is aware and monitoring the developments but patriots fans including the president, until the fact come out. >> it is very sad. i was surprised to see. he proclaimed his innocence totally but i'm surprised to see it. >> reporter: two female owners

of the spa were charged, 100 patrons linked to the investigation have been names. investigators expect more charges to come down. jillian: who are the other individuals on the list? keep us posted. leland: jussie smollett's attorney denying felony charges, for faking a racially charged attack in chicago. we bring in michael coolidge from chicago. it is amazing that for weeks the media cannot wait to talk about the jussie smollett alleged attack, now 48 hours after the police declare it a hoax it has disappeared. >> what is unfortunate about it, the people jussie smollett

attempted to attack here, people that live in red county america, non-big-city america, he said that when roberts asked, why were you attacked? he said because he comes down really hard on donald trump. this idea that in mag a country where i happen to live, i don't live in chicago. i live in hour and a half outside in small-town america, red county, america where we proudly love our communities and proudly go to church and probably many of us are republican and a lot of us voted for donald trump in the last election but there are not roving bands of us looking out for gay black people to beat up. the fact that people believe this. leland: the question from the conversation standpoint in chicago are people talking about what it means and how to prevent

these one of runaway beliefs from happening again or maybe the next one will be real or speculation rather than waiting for evidence? >> it is more the latter because this narrative is pushed that jussie smollett, this was an anomaly. i had another one say 99% of hate crimes are real, this kind of hoaxing doesn't happen at all. not saying people don't get attacked in the united states who are minorities or gay or transgender or whatever but this idea that republicans or conservatives, people that love donald trump are doing this, the fact that it was believable from the beginning by so many people is an outrage. people where i live are sick of it. leland: you imagine why they are

tired of being accused of something they didn't do. you talk about being focused, the university of california berkeley's campus is a minority position. this is video from turning point usa, they are organizing folks for conservative group and you can see one of the organizers got beat up pretty bad. he had a black eye etc.. very clear this was a politically motivated attack, they will make whatever labels they want. does it surprise you this isn't getting the nationwide attention jussie smollett's attack allegedly got in this is on videotape. we don't have to wait for an investigation to see that it didn't happen. >> i'm glad you brought this up. here is hard evidence of a guy being sucker punched in the face

and so many other attacks making national news in the past, the go funds me campaign, a guy had his f word on his cake, a waitress in new york says she wrote it puts so many reporters don't look for that verifying evidence, eyewitness video, anything, they make it national news because this is america 2019 or hard evidence of a guy being punched in the face for what he believes in and nothing more. there's crickets all over national news except here. leland: we will see what charges are brought against the alleged attacker that berkeley police put out, a picture of him as well. appreciate your time, good to

see you and safe drive, back to the small town. >> rochelle, illinois. >> live pictures out of el paso, texas, where the acting secretary of defense and chairman of the joint chiefs of staff general joe dunford serving security measures at the southern border, put into effect by the trump administration. we will be right back.

the fact is, americans move more than anyone else in the world. on average, we'll live in eleven homes. and every time we move, things change. apartments become houses, cars become mini vans. as we upgrade and downsize, an allstate agent will do the same for our protection. now that you know the truth, are you in good hands? leland: a doj source says not to expect the final report for robert mueller this coming week but that's not mean there are not a lot of development to look at including serious questions about what happened with the special counsel at sentencing memo on paul manafort.

>> special counsel mueller had until midnight to file the sentencing memo, never showed up his file on the federal court website but that doesn't mean it wasn't filed. it could have been filed but rejected. the news about manafort, it is not going to happen next week, we don't know if it could be the week after. court documents allege manafort shared polling data with an associate with ties to the russian intelligence community. metaphors played guilty to two counts related to his lobbying work, mueller wraps team plans to offer manafort some leniency but that went out the window when a judge found manafort lied to investigators after agreeing to cooperate. mueller will return his report to bill barr, donald trump was asked about this yesterday.

>> i was a better candidate than she was. everybody knows it is a hoax, one of the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on this country so i look forward to seeing the report. if it is an honest report it will say that. if it is honest report -- >> reporter: this is not the only case on manafort's plate. on march 8th, he will be sentenced in a virginia case, bloomberg news reports similar charges could be filed to the new york district attorney. if he receives a pardon, richard blumenthal tweeted if manafort lied to the special counsel to secure a pardon from trump decision was ill-conceived, state charges for the same crimes are hardened proof trump can't save him from those, no comments on the bloomberg report, the president has not indicated on the record that he would consider pardoning paul manafort. leland: if that would result in

double jeopardy claims. thanks, jillian has more on this. leland: for more insight on the mueller probe his assistant director of the fbi mark morgan. you worked for special counsel robert mueller when he was fbi director. you know how he thinks and operates. read the tea leaves. is there anything that happened this week that gives you an indication when he might be wrapping up? >> it is comical as i watch the news cycle, and what i know from director mueller, he will release the report when it is complete and thorough and he is ready. from an investigative standpoint when you come to a conclusion, the president, what he is going to interact, whether he has answers to the questions and whatever he thinks he will get from the president, that would

be the final tea leaves and he is ready to give the report. >> you are saying the president has input, what he tells him and what he gives him will influence when mueller decides to call it. >> how far he cooperate and whether mueller believes there's everything he can get from the president and that could make a determination. >> the president's supporters say this is gone on too long, nearly two years. it proves there is no collusion. the investigation is hanging by a thread. is that true? >> you can take some liberty with what is out there. we see indictments that have been made and factual information, nothing suggested collusion.

i can't see people having a question and drying conclusion, that is premature and you have to wait until the final report comes out before we can make that determination. leland: what are the odds we the american people will get to see some form of the report? >> some form, but the complete report is not happening. jillian: we will check back with you soon. leland: dianne feinstein talking the green new deal with a couple kids. making headlines for reasons the senator might not be happy about. if i built a van,

>> we are asking you to vote yes on the green new deal. >> we have 12 years to turn this around. >> will not get turned around -- >> government is supposed to be by the people. >> what is interesting about this group. i've been doing this for 30 years. i know what i am doing. you come in here and you say it has to be my way or the highway. i don't respond to that.

jillian: the dianne feinstein going cold water on the green new deal with children, she's among a number of moderate dems reluctant to support the resolution. it away in is our political panel, democratic campaign consultant and fox news contributor doug shown in gop strategist david of villa. great to see you. i will go to you first, david. you are not a lover of the green new deal but wasn't this an unforced error on her part? fighting with children? >> typical of many democrats. you can have your own ideas but they are wrong because we are not what we think they are. he is the bigger issue with the green deal. 2020, meet 2010. you saw how republicans so dominated the 2010 election after president obama had his own green deal he tried to put through. remember solyndra, the green

energy ideas the president tried to implement in 2009, his renewable act, ultimately played a big part in republicans having a huge 2010 election and here we are again, democrats once again pushing a green deal that voters are going to reject. jillian: lots of them throwing their weight behind the green new deal but is a winning strategy for 2020, a winning issue for democrats? >> i don't think it is. we have no idea how to pay for it, we have no idea what it means to get rid of fossil fuels in ten years that i think it would be a mistake not to understand the concern about climate, it is very real issue as the children's quite articulate comments reflected in david is right. of democrats feel they can talk down to the electorate, talk down to students and children that is a bad mistake.

the issue offers potential for the democrats it is an important issue but the green new deal is in my judgment not the way to go. jillian: why didn't she say that? i don't support the deal necessarily but climate change is a real issue, most americans care about it and here's what we are going to do instead? >> i think the answer, she said she has been there 30 years and she's not in the mood to be told by young people what to do. that is wrong, i think that is foolish. i think that is a very embarrassing video but it is one of the reasons we need more turnover. even though i disagree heartily with many of the new members of congress who were elected we also elected a bunch of moderates and turnover and fresh faces are good for my party. jillian: a bunch of democrats, some of them presidential

hopefuls, took great pains to put distance between themselves and democratic socialism. clearly this is a strategy that may help them individually but for the democratic party as a whole, isn't it just showing up the risk? >> democrats at their best ultimately trying to redistribute wealth in this country and have a government have more and more control over americans every day lives but let's go back to the green deal for a second because it has big ramifications on the country and every democratic presidential candidate should be asked if you are for climate change are you really for going after the biggest offender -- jillian: we are up against a hard commercial break. we will have you both back soon, thanks so much.

security adviser specifically talk about aid shipments that need to get in to venezuela. hour two of america's news headquarters, we are in washington following developments there and around the world. i'm leland vittert. gillian: and i'm gillian turner. president trump tweeting about the standoff of venezuela writing, god bless to people of venezuela. bryan llenas joins us with the latest events unfolding now. bryan. >> good afternoon, let's pull back the live video, thousands of venezuelans taken to the streets. entry points from colombia, bogotá, colombia venezuela, thousands of people to help humanitarian trucks make their way in wens.

-- venezuela. 220 tons of water, food, the hope here is that the masses of people will help get these trucks into venezuela. the president of venezuela nicolás maduro ordered military to block the trucks from entering the country, he believes that this is a ploy by the americans to end regime. the opposition led by juan guaido called on venezuelans to rise up and disobey maduro and allow aid to venezuela. guaido tweeted, reportedly show 4 venezuelan national guardsmen between colombia and venezuela leaving post in an attempt to clear the way for humanitarian

aid on the trucks. this morning guiado demand the united states recognizes as interim president is urging venezuelans soldiers to join the opposite. he tweeted this earlier today, to the military, reiterate our order, obey, constitution, let humanitarian aid through and put yourselves on the side of the people, today you hold in your hands the lives of hundreds of thousands of venezuelans, the whole country and world will have eyes on you, decide well. we know one truck has made in for international aid to venezuela from brazil, southern border of brazil in venezuela. the question is whether any of the trucks from colombia with u.s. aid will make their way into the country, the united nations secretary general has informed both sides not to resort to violence and so far today maduro's military has used

teargas on protestors, yesterday two killed and dozen of civilians injured in clashes with the military on the brazilian border. the bottom line, guiado made surprise last night for benefit concert where they are trying to raise hundred million dollars, he says the venezuelan military helped him get to the concert. the big question now is -- which side will the venezuelan military side with, guiado or maduro? gillian: the big question, the first truck broken through, what about the metrics tons of aid in the other trucks that are following closely behind will they get through, bryan, thanks so much. >> army general rejected nicolás maduro and allow aid, what happens once it gets inside the

country yet to be seen. john bolton, national security adviser tweeted this, though, as interim president guiado said today those accompanying us to save lives of venezuelans are true patriots, referring to military. gillian, you know better than most, tweets an statements by the national security adviser are extraordinarily well crafted and you have to think that's a message that the venezuelan military, don't side with guiado and side with maduro, perhaps you're on your own. gillian: other interesting reporting from fox news sources, senior national security officials on the ground on colombian border as some of this goes down in realtime to have senior eyes on the ground, it's a reflection of how deeply committed the issue, deeply interested in the issue president trump has been over the last few weeks. leland: he certainly has when he gave the speech on president's

day in miami to venezuelan, people who had come over and escaped, he's now tweeting about this today. we also saw john bolton in the beginning of this talk about how the safety, not only of u.s. diplomats of guaido himself. gillian: the president raises venezuela with him multiple times a day. they have having multiple discussions every day. that's highly unusual for a national security issue like this. leland: shows you how much they care about it and we were talking earlier, we will try to get live pictures. not just venezuela, humanitarian crisis, it's tragic, people have lost 30 and 40 pounds because of lack of food, lack of medicine and people are dying in the streets, that's happening all over the world. the geopolitical implications in terms of russia and cub whee have big-time investments an big-time support for maduro there and being able to kick them out of venezuela and out of

the western hemisphere has serious implications as well. >> as he faces off against the democratic socialist in 2020, this is a real-time, real-world example of socialism destroying the country inside out. a message -- leland: we heard that from him in speeches and stump as well talking about socialism and whether he compares to venezuela or democratic socialists and doesn't make distinction. in terms of what's happening on the ground joins us to discuss what gillian was talking about and options on the table as there's so much aid waiting to get it to people who need it so

desperately. gillian: also patrick and chairman of joint chief of staff, general joe dunford in el paso, texas, security measures recently put in place in u.s. southern border, jeff paul latest on this, jeff. >> they landed in el paso about 2 hours ago and have a full day ahead of them and around u.s.-méxico border, they are working to understand where the gaps are in border protection, what dhs specifically needs and how much it could cost, meaning, how much money will be spent of the $3.6 billion allocated from the military's construction fund. so far they visited national visit in méxico, in texas but close to méxico, all this happening while trump administration and democrats square off regarding trump's national security declaration and trump's push for a wall. house speaker pelosi just visited the border town of laredo, texas saying there's no

emergency and that the declaration violates the constitution. >> a wall is not effective, it's very expensive, it's nothing more than than -- has no merit in terms of cost effectiveness and does not support the values of our country. >> now the acting defense secretary chairman of joint chiefs will also view two other sites along the bored, aircraft and prioritize for construction by dhs, something we should point out in a letter to department of defense dhs requested, quote, fencing, while dod uses the term barrier, none of the officials used the term wall, gillian. gillian: all of it well part of president trump's plan to continue militarizing the southern border, jeff, thanks for that. leland: the president is at the white house before he leaves to second summit with north korean

dictator kim jong un, making preparations for the trip and watching venezuela as well. ellison barber on the north lawn as the last-minute strategy sessions are underway, hi, ellison. >> a lot going on before president trump makes trip to vietnam in the coming days, senior administration officials say they spent the past month negotiating, engaging with north korean counterparts and that that -- regime on north korea complete denuclearization of korean peninsula and recovering remains of soldiers missing in action. >> it's not a consideration. it's not one of the things on the table.

>> what is on the table? >> you want me to discuss that now? everything is on the table. >> the singapore summit was all show and little substance, the president maintains progress was made then and that more will be made next week. >> if i were not elected president, you would have been in a war with north korea. we now have a situation where the relationships are good, where there's been no nuclear testing, no missiles, no rockets, we have our hostages back, we have many of the remains back and coming back rapidly, the remains of great warriors for many, many years ago and the families are so thrilled and so happy, we've had a great relationship, the singapore was a tremendous success. >> all of this as the president continues to negotiate with china on trade, chinese negotiators are in washington, they were set to wrap up week of negotiations where president trump extended them through the weekend saying that good things are happening enough good things that mr. trump indicated he's

open to extending the deadline for a trade deal without a deal by march first, tariffs $200 billion of chinese protects are set to go from 10% to 25%. president trump expressed optimism but at the same time the u.s. trade representative robert lighthizer said there was still a very big hurdle to jump over in the coming days and when it comes to actually reaching some sort of deal with china, leland. leland: the market was certainly happy about the news as it head today friday's close, 26,000 for the first time in a couple of months. ellison barber at the white house, ellison, thank you. gillian. >> president trump's now facing legal and legislative challenges to his national emergency declaration at the southern border, including from some members of his own party, for more on this let's bring in republican strategists kimberly, kim, great to have you here, thank you for joining us.

>> good afternoon. declaring national emergency, now it looks like he has the challenges stacking up against it, what's his mind set? >> i don't know, i think there's been challenges from the very beginning, think about it. the republicans had the house and senate and failed to get it done then and push the blame there too but now democrats are running into 2020 and i think they are going to kick the can down the road. i don't think they want him to get anything accomplished. if he has another fatter, they know that he will look -- his approval ratings will look even better as he nears election. they will try the best to stop this. gillian: we know there's 225 democrats who are willing to sign on resolution stopping national emergency, including one republican, many more in the pipe that are thinking about jumping ship and signing into the democrats' resolution, it's got to hurt. >> it definitely has to hurt. like i said, it hurt before, paul ryan, they could have done

something, it hurt us before. i think he should continue, i mean, this is a national emergency, cannot secure borders as experts say is detrimental to us. there's a lot of children, human trafficking, so much coming across as far as drugs, ms13. gillian: apprehensions are up in increasing number, major amount, percentage in the last year, what's the fear, apress he thinkses -- apprehensions are up, law enforcement is doing what needs to be done. >> it's pushing back a lot on them and resources, from what i gather it seems that they are really understaffed in a way because honestly, i think if they had a barrier and they have said, border patrol even said, a barrier would help them in situations. we should keep going forward. they are there and on site and we are not. we should look at experts at the border. gillian: what about the folks that say president trump has

gone so far out on a limb that he's run a foul of the law? >> i think we should talk to lawyers about that. we elected president trump, we elected him to make good on his campaign promises and i think he's going to get it done and necessary and i like that about president trump. gillian: he has gone around congress, 38% of americans poll the president bypassing the congress in order to declare national emergency but 56%, solid majority here, major lead, almost 20 points oppose it. so the american people are opposed to the manner in which he's gone about pursuing his campaign commitment to them, that tells you a lot about where the american people are and they don't like this. >> yeah, i understand that.

you to look at the future. he does this now, what will someone do 8 years from now and i get the point of it and everyone should be cautious -- gillian: dangerous precedent. >> i'm looking at national security, i'm looking at what's in the best interest of americans and understand that the favorite may not feel the same way i do but that's what's great about the country, it's democracy. >> thanks for sharing perspective with us today, kimberly. >> thank you. leland: the r&b singer, fox news alert as the r&b singer known as r. kelly right now is in police custody in chicago, court hearings scheduled in the next couple of hours on sexual abuse charges involving minors, matt outside the courtroom with more big questions, does r. kelly get bond and does he have the money for it? >> well, the cook county state attorney's indictment asked that r. kelly be not be released on

bond today. one of the big questions is whether the judge will issue bond and if r. kelly does have cash onhand to bail him out. celebrity avenatti is representing one of the girls in indictment. he just entered courthouse. r. kelly turned himself on police, 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse indictment against r. kelly, goes into graphic detail about women who were under aged at the time. michael avenatti claims he has submitted tape which depicts r. kelly involved in sexual act with 14-year-old girl, here is r. kelly's attorney responding to that allegation. >> no one shown us the tape, no one called us up, would you like to see it, no one said anything. they're walking around and they say a tape exists. >> r. kelly was thrust into spotlight that profiles underage

girls that allege sexual abuse. here is one woman that says r. kelly coerced her. >> now that i'm an adult, i feel hurt by what he did to me. when i was only 16 year's old and under the influence of alcohol and marijuana which was provided to me at the party. >> law enforcement now set to begin at the moment, faces 3 to 7 years of 8 to 10 counts against him, leland. leland: wow, a lot going on there, matt, back to you as news warrants and track down avenatti and asking questions about supposed tape, let us know. gillian. gillian: coming up, 2020 democratic candidates are hitting the trail including california senator kamala harris in iowa, our panel will respond

how each candidate is responding to headlines. getting attention for all the wrong reasons all over a -- we will break that down for you as well. we will tell you what's being done to keep her out. >> it's a woman who inflicted amount of harm to american soldiers, american citizens, she's a terrorist, she's not coming back.

breakfast club. >> they say they oppose legalizing weed? >> that's not true. >> i know. >> half of my family is from jamaica, are you kidding me? >> democratic strategists, did i get that right? >> almost. >> okay, well, there you go. you got plug-in, democratic strategists, nice to see both of you as well, is there a risk in continuing risk for democrats continuing to be pushed further and further to the left and now president trump can say, you're the party of late-term abortion, socialism and legalized pot? >> well, i think there's a risk on some issues but i don't think this is one of them. one to have biggest things we need to do is get young people to vote, they are animated on the issue, recreational marijuana is something positive for them and if we can get more

young people on polls, voting democrat. >> one of the smartest things that either parties could do is figure out how to you tap into a young voter base, those people are the future and medical marijuana recreational use of marijuana, that is not the rod like the way republicans would like for it to be, it's a state right's issues and if the republican party wants to push back on state rights, that would not be popular long term and won't be popular now. leland: does it play well with hickenberg in colorado? >> cory gardner, republican running for reelection in the state of colorado, vocal in pushing the department of justice to stay away of what's going on in colorado. leland: justice nominees over it. >> precisely. leland: all right, jessica, to you on this, though, how -- what

-- what is too far in terms of democrats pushing either for criminal justice reform or for legalization of marijuana? >> well, i think right now too far isn't in the realm of possibility. what we need to have are honest conversations about topics you mentioned. when president trump was running for president he even said that when he came of legalization of marijuana that he believed it was a state's right issue, so many of the conversations will come down to what occurs on a state level, within state legislative bodies and there's a great conversation to be had among presidential hopefuls and my hope is that they would be having the conversation in a way that's meaningful to voters whether you're a republican or a democrat and i think that the democrats are well positioned to do so, donald trump is not and donald trump will be the nominee, he has to -- leland: now we are getting into a whole different -- we will bring it to somebody that you're a big fan

of amy klobuchar of the great state of minnesota, she did her announcement. she passed herself as minnesota nice, appeal charm, that she was terrible to staff, ate salad with comb and made her staff clean the comb, anything to that? >> exaggeration, leland. she said that she's full of grit and stuff and what the country needs grit and toughness to lead us out of the problems that we face. here is the thing about amy, i have known her for 13 years, she has folks that love her, stay with her, support her. leland: high turnover of senate staff. >> over 100 people at it. i have seen her be kind to

staff. the notion that the fact that she's tough and has high standards as she herself said, maybe that's what somebody needs to lead us. leland: amy klobuchar is one of the centrist candidates, the fact that there's such organized opposition research going on about her and dump meaning that the more prerogative wing views her as threat. >> nobody knows exactly where the attacks are coming from and i do think that people take candidacy seriously. they do think he's formidable op oabt and secure nomination as we said in previous conversations, it's too soon to know and people are scared of her. leland: all right, we will leave it there. jessica, al, great discussion, we will watch everyone on the trail this weekend and then this looks like fireworks in

venezuela and what you are seeing people are taking matters into their own hands. you can talk about guaido and maduro but ultimately it'll be decided by the people taking action on the streets. gillian: tough question to ask looking at pictures of riots, violence, is this encourage to go you in that sense? >> i have to say there are echos of people standing up to armed soldiers, facing down military equipment and barriers with nothing other than their hands empty and asking outreaching for peace for a better future for the children. gillian: you know, this is a country that's poised on the brink of an all outright civil war, it seems like a bad story out of like a past century, you know, it's hard for americans to

see this and get our minds around the idea that this is actually going on not that far from here. >> exactly. i think that's what's different about venezuela, we have seen play out in syria, we have seen it play out in africa but here in our own hemisphere, a couple of hours from border, this is remarkable that it has gotten to this point. bear in mind it didn't happen overnight, it is decades of decay and destruction of institutions and autonomy and all coming to a head. gillian: i talked to national security adviser john bolton and he says that by the white house estimate 80 to 90% of military has thrown to maduro and turned support to guiado but said it's the top 10%, top tier that's remaining loyal to maduro, can you break down for us why? >> because they are receiving the spoils not just of

corruption in the government but there are narco trafficking networks that run through caracas and these generals are the ones who are profiting off of that illegal trafficking in drugs, in arms, a whole host of other things, let's bear in mind that hezbollah, iranian influence in the country and all of that comes with money and that has for the last several years been filling the pockets to have generals. gillian: what can be done to try and turn their loyaltyies, top 10% of military to opposition or is there nothing that can be done or do we have to live with that? >> i think what you see play out in border of colombia where soldiers are crossing over to the opposition side, he's going to start to crumble the iron-clad grip that maduro has had on the country and as people see soldiers abandoning post it

would be hope to population or military opposition and lost faith in maduro. >> what is maduro's rationale. we hear the horrific stories about dictator like maduro, south sudan, all over the world, not allowing aid from other countries, food, medical supplies, medicine to get to their own people, why is that a winning strategy for anybody? >> because if you let the aid in, you acknowledge there's a problem, you acknowledge that your management of the country in the last 20 years has let us to this point and that's a very difficult prospect for maduro who has projected the image of strength and of standing up to the west, so if he let's the aid in he acknowledges that there are hundreds of thousands of malnourished children, there are people that are literally diego -- dying of preventible diseases and that's a problem that he's not willing to confront.

gillian: hard to deny when we have the footage to prove it, thank you so much for joining us today, great to hear your perspective. stunning developments as the vatican as cardinal claims officials destroyed documents of church sex abuse scandal, blasting silence after 4 days abuse sex prevention submit at the vatican. >> on the last day of the submit officials focusing on the issue of transparency and facing the ugly truth that much to have clerical abuse happened because the church leaders looked the other way. abused victims marched through rome people's plaza as part of ongoing presence for the submit, victims from 20 countries have come to put pressure on the bishop including delegation from pennsylvania, state where grand jury report of clergy sex abuse

last summer sparked the crisis. >> so our journey has been to bring awareness to what really is going on. they say they want to help victims but ultimately they are not. >> bishop got tongue lashing from a nun, nigerian sister verónica, one to have few women to speak at the conference, she basically called the bishops out, jesus condemned. >> as being the custodian of moral standards and values and good behavior in this society. [inaudible] >> yes, why did we keep silent for so long?

>> so want to give bishop's credit, they are hearing the message, they have aware of the victims, they have been meeting with them, hearing stories of abuse and it has made a difference. even though no final document here after the submit -- summit the bishops are asking for guidelines to take back with them. they are going to be making a handbook to give them something concrete to do that with. while conference will officially end tomorrow with the pope's final words, they all know that really it is just the beginning of creating any kind of real change in the church, back to you. gillian: just the beginning and i suppose a handbook is better than nothing at all. thank you so much. leland: out of control tanker fire in ohio, what caused the massive fire ball, plus, the trump administration vowing to keep the american isis out of the united states, we will top to immigration lawyer about whether we can call it isis

promoted killing of u.s. citizens, should we call her isis bride or should we call her another terrorist? >> that's a good question. i'm not here to defend her or any acts that she has taken in her life or the choices she's made, you know, i think there's probably good case to make that she may be prosecuted as terrorist. leland: the attorneys are saying it's okay that she comes over as prosecuted, he wants her to be able to come home. there's the issue about issue u.s. citizen or not because she was born in u.s. soil, that's undisputed but at the same time she was the daughter of a diplomat from yemen, may have been not a a diplomat at the time, is this a winnable case for the attorney? >> essentially, yes, there seems to be some -- they appear to have some evidence that he was not a diplomat or not serving as diplomat at the time she was served. there was enough evidence for at least to present originally to the department of state a long time ago that caused the state

department to grant her passport and renew passport before she left to syria. this is her attorney on that point. >> if barack obama, state department didn't want her no the country, they wouldn't have stripped her of passport and visa. >> president trump declaring noncitizen not overreaching own authority but essentially giving her a free pass. he's saying the u.s. has no jurisdiction over her and letting her go. leland: this is very important point. is there a way to strip someone of u.s. citizenship or say even if you had it you don't have it anymore once you join up with a foreign terrorist group? >> under our current law, no. the constitution guaranties that if you're a citizen you remain a citizen and can't be taken away, however, you can give it up voluntarily and certainly acts that the immigration statute recognizes as potentially expatriating as you commit

voluntarily and intent to give up citizenship in doing so. none of those acts probably fit her case in the statute. leland: i see. >> the statute talks about, for example, if you serve in the armed services of foreign state, isis isn't foreign state under the statute. leland: fascinating, well, that was interview on acb as she talked about tweets on attacks on u.s. citizens, up to the courts to decide how this goes, meanwhile she's still overseas, appreciate your time and your service, sir. leland: gillian. gillian: well, not everything that happens in vegas stays, freeze winter weather blanketed the cities this week, we will tell you where it's heading next. after months of wearing only a tiger costume,
