to bed early tonight i have got to get to bed early tomorrow and start reporting on the president's trip to vietnam. pete: they don't have a host. imagine if we did this show without a host? griff: it's hostless. a lot of entertainment. a producer told me a guy is going to dangle from the ceiling. i'm not sure what that's about. pete: it's a gimmick. katie: hopefully won't be dangling from the ceiling is the summit in iran. pete: anything can happen. katie: getting ready to leave with his summit with kim jong un in north korea. big deal. a second summit. the first one, the president believes went well, according to the white house. they believe this will be a second summit to further break the ice to incentivize kim jong un and to kind of lay out the details about what north korea could look like if kim jong un decides to follow through with his denuclearization, meaning more freedom, more economy, more freeckets. so that's really what the effort is here. the president was criticized

last week for saying he is not in a hurry. the white house pushed back because he is not in a hurry doesn't mean it's not important to the white house there will be a time line for denuclearization. right now trying to late groundwork and let them come to the table further with what the options are. griff: back up. remember when president trump took office, irving was addressing the serious and dire threat that north korea posed rightfully so he. president's handling of it and now know what's happened so far. here we go again as the president is about tomorrow bark the press already anticipating problems. pete: something that hasn't happened yet. griff: it doesn't happen until wednesday. here are the headlines today. this is the associated press hanoi summit nightmare scenario, bad deals and little change. pete: a.p. goes on to say in that article some experts ill considered deal that allows north korea to get everything it wants while getting very little.

here is a few headline he is from our illustrious capital. no rush trump redefines success with summit with leader kim jong un. in that "the washington post" article some feel trump could feel pressure to make a major concession to kim face-to-face talks one-on-one. he could herald as a political victory. at this point calf our press. sounds like they are cheering for failure. the reason he is taking it head on. president obama dropped on his desk the biggest issue have you got is north korea. take it head on or you will have a big problem. which is what the president is doing. give the guy some space to make a deal. listen, we can all critique it afterwards. if it's not a good deal, that's unfortunate, we can talk about that. but to be at the table and get them to walk back from the precipice. katie: there is a long way to go on this. watching this very closely. look at the progress that

has been made as well. there wasn't a single missile fired in 2018. no testing from north korea, at least publicly anyway. and so there has to be some acknowledgment of the progress that has been made to hasn't been able to be made through the diplomatic channels that have been typical over the past 20 years with the regime? griff: the president was asked about it and he said look, we might have been at war had i not did the things i did. no one seems to acknowledge that although he is trying to defend the progress he has made. you would think maybe some of the headlines would be more like a lot hangs in the balance because a lot does. we are at a very important moment in history with north korea. to say cast doubt and to put worry into headlines is, perhaps, a bit much. katie: we haven't seen a tweet from the president lately on how big the buttons are. pete: he has pointed to continually it was the fire and fury rhetoric. katie: right. of course. pete: got them to the table. we have seen the intel that's been leaked about the fact that north korea is still not playing nice.

they are playing side games here. we know that. that's what dictators do that want to maintain power. president knows that. his team knows that this is high stakes moment where the world can get more peaceful or goes sideways. as a so-called journalist in america you should be rooting for your president to succeed for all mankind. griff: ed henry is live in hanoi. you will hear from him very shortly at 6:30. katie: 6:30 a.m. pete: bring the latest for us. bark here on capitol hill in washington, democrats listen, we hear a lot of rhetoric on the campaign trail in 20206789 we stand for the green new deal. medicare for all. where a lot of that this week and in the coming weeks is going to be tested with votes. mitch mcconnell, smartly in the senate has said you want your green new deal. vote on it half the senate democrats are running for president. laying a stake in the ground. medicare for all as well. katie: calling medicare for

all it's socialist medicine. medicare for all sounds nice and tailored. it's not just medicare for all it's a socialist medicare program. green new deal not forget what was in this piece of legislation, right? getting rid of planes, getting rid of car travel, changing over to the sustainable energy sources. pete: new buildings for everybody. katie: ripping out every single building in the country and turning it into a green sustainable building. that's what they are voting on. they are also saying 2020 candidates jumping on board this is just a starting point. it's not going to be a starting point now that it's black and white in legislation and mitch mcconnell is going to bring it to the floor for a vote. griff: start paying attention as we are to the 2020 democrat field growing of presidential candidates. this is front and center. this is all they are talking about. you know, actually, i wonder what al gore. remember, in 1999, al gore wrote earth in the balance and he wants to in 25 years we should be able to get rid

of the internal combustion engine. katie: al gore said it he said it in 2006 that the world would be ending 10 years from then. well, it's 2019 and still sitting here. pete: it was global warming, and global cooling and then climate change. medicare for all by the way is v.a. for all. that's the type of preview that you would have. socialist from the bronx actually from west chester the new congresswoman from there has been talking about this. apparently her time in washington has gone to her head a little bit. this is what she is saying about the green new deal. listen. >> i'm at least trying and they're not. so, the power is in the person who is trying regardless of the success. if you are trying, you've got all the power, you're driving the agenda. you are doing all this stuff. like i just introduced the green new deal two weeks ago and creating all of this conversation. why? because no one else has even

tried. because no one has even tried. so people are like oh, it's unrealistic. oh, it's vegas. oh, it doesn't address this little minute thing i'm like you try. [laughter] you do it. [ applause ] because you not. because you're not. until you do it, i'm the boss. katie: actually not true that people haven't tried. they have tried this with solyndra and dumped a whole bunch of taxpayer money down the drain and tried this with wind and solar energy and not found a way without subsidies from the taxpayers to make those industries viable. she is not the first leftist who has put these ideas out there in terms of completely rechanging the economy to go after what they claim is green energy. ed: she is the boss though. she is talking to democrats there she is driving the agenda. i didn't have. griff: it's not clear who she is talking. pete: she is talking to nancy pelosi and dianne feinstein. incremental change the way to do.

katie: dick durbin said what is this? griff: like you don't know what you are talking about, okay? she is doing things and doing it right in her own office. get a load of this. a tweet went out yesterday. she said she is -- leadership begins at home or however she put in. basically announcing that she is going to redistribute the money appropriated to her congressional office to make sure that the entry level staffers get a fair share of money. let me show you the numbers here, right? she puts this out. she wants $52,000 for the entry level staff salary for anyone in her office. here's the problem. you have got to find a way to get money to pay the entry-level people so she plans to take that from the chief of staff. senior staffers who would normally make 80 -- or $154,000 for chief of staff probably only going to make about $80,000. pete: every capitol hill office has a limited amount of money to pay their staff. tough decide how to allocate

it earn in my office pay a living wage. i want to pay $15 an hour. entry level intern is making 52 grand. your chief of staff who has a very important role in a congressional office now is capped at 80 as opposed to the actual markets rate on capitol hill which is closer to 150,000. everyone is between 52 and 80. actually socialism and communism on display. katie: i'm fine with her moving money around in her office. let's not forget where that comes from. they are not making that money in her office. they're not making a business and making a profit. that money comes from taxpayers and given to her office and she can move it around. if it was market-based maybe she could pay entry level staffers $54,000 a year given the market value of those positions in the private sector. pete: she would have to have a profit motive. katie: profit motive and business. let's not forget where that money comes from. brian: she makes $174,000 as

a congresswoman. she should probably redistribute some of that will you share some of that money, ms. congresswoman with the rest of your staff who is not making as much as you? griff: email us at friends@foxnews.com if you ever owned a business and had to meet a payroll. and whether you think this is a good idea as katie points out. it's not like she earned the money. she just redistributing it. katie: turning now to your headlines, three crew members are believed dead after amazon cargo plane crashed into a bay near houston. the jet flying near miami plunged flight witnesses say the twin engine operated by atlas air nose dived into the water. crews are searching for the plane's black boxes to figure out what happened. powerful tornadoes in mississippi kill at least one person and jury a dozen more. you can see several snapped trees crashing on to homes. watch as whipping winds force gas station doors to fly open. meanwhile, tennessee is under a state of emergency as rescue crews say

from the list. >> right now in this category i think bradley cooper deserved the nomination but did he not get nominated for a star is born. looking at this category i think the definitive winner is alfonso. also children of men and now roma the netflix film. cool little side note, he did not give his actors a script and he shot the entire film in absolute continuity. the majority of what you are watching on screen is actual genuine reactions from the characters and actors as they are learning the story point. that, to me, is why is he going to win tonight. and he should win tonight. is he an amazing filmmaker. indicate indicate and drum roll, please. best picture goes to, let's take a look. >> yeah. i think roma is. >> i don't sing my own songs. >> why? >> i just don't feel comfortable. >> feel comfortable. >> almost every person like the

pete: the big second north korea summit is happening on vietnam on wednesday and thursday of this week. this channel will be all over those developments in realtime. and in anticipation of that meeting we will bring in ed henry fox news chief national correspondent live in hanoi, vietnam with the latest. ed, good morning. how is it going? >> guys, i miss you. first of all, i saw the top of the show here in hanoi and here you are promoing the oscars 8:00 p.m. eastern tonight there is a special right here on the fox news channel. and, guess what? we not only have breaking news and great analysis. we have a host. it's me. the oscars doesn't even have a host. katie: you have a red tie on too. pete: you should have a red carpet. ed: i didn't get the memo

but we all match today. miss you guys on the couch. griff: if you sing some queen today i will definitely watch. ed: i heard what you said at the top of the show. spot on. i was in singapore with the president in june of last year. if you rewind the tape a little bit to the summer of 2017, when the president warned there would be fire and fury like the world has never seen, if kim jong un did not cut it out, remember the credit particulars. all around the world but particularly in washington saying this president is leading us into nuclear war. the rhetoric is too hot. especially when he followed it up a few weeks later at the u.n. and called kim little rocket man. what did the president succeed at? he succeeded at pushing back at kim, sort of frightening kim with the rhetoric. pushing back with the threat of military action. and then following up in singapore months later with the diplomacy, sitting down with the dictator and they succeeded there in breaking the ice. what they did not succeed in is getting kim towards

moving towards denuclearization. so the stakes are high in hanoi for the president to follow up. it's a success that he hasn't gotten credit for in round one but he has a lot of work to do in round 2. griff: do you have some of these media headlines without a firm agreement coming out in june in singapore is the media putting too much pressure on expectations? >> i think what you and meet and katie were saying at the top of the hour, some are rooting for failure. like this can't possibly succeed. i heard the same thing in singapore again and again and again and in fact these leaders met. they got along. they broke the ice. let's be serious. this is serious business. what prompted the president's rhetoric in 2017 about fire and fury is that our intelligence community says that north korea has the ability now to basically put a missile, you know a miniaturized nuclear weapon in a missile that could potentially reach the united states. this is heavy, heavy stuff.

the stakes are high for the president. and there is already talk, hey, look, could therable a nobel peace prize? could it be something because, you know, part of what is on the table here in hanoi is officially ending the korean war. there was a arm cities but they never ended that war. they're that could be a positive step forward big deal for the united states and north korea and also for vietnam. you have been there for a couple days now and we hear that you went to a barbershop. >> yeah. they didn't pick vietnam by accident. you see this great barbershop in hanoi. one side kim and the other side president trump. this local barber told me that he is offering up kim and trump haircuts. you have some of the local guys there getting a little bit of an orange glow maybe to their hair. i met a couple of people. one kid, a young guy who picked kim and an older gentleman who says he thinks a little like the president. a little bit. watch. >> so why did you get the kim jong un? >> because i'm fat a little

bit. i look like mr. kim jong un. >> why not go with the donald trump? >> i think it's not suitable for my face. ed: why do you think you look like donald trump? why do you want to look more like him? >> i admire him because is he big entrepreneur and famous entrepreneur from america. that's why i want to cut the hair to look like him. [laughter] >> i'm not sure he looks like the president but it was fun. owner of the barbershop has a serious point. his family was impacted impact y by the vietnam here and obviously 10,000 americans killed. remember the serious stuff. look, my family was impacted and i want to bring people together. kim and trump, he said i hope we get world peace and that's something everybody is hoping for. katie: a really fun story at a serious time, obviously especially with the history there. thank you for bringing that to us this morning. ed: i will be back. i will reveal the official t-shirt of the summit. i got it at local merchant and bring it back for pete.

pete: i thought you said you were going to have the trump hairdo. but we will take the t-shirt. ed: it will look better on pete. katie: thanks, ed. turning to your headlines, new england patriots owner bob kraft is not the only billionaire accused in the florida prostitution bust. reports show former head of citigroup john hastens is also among the 25 men charged with soliciting sex at the palm beach county spa. wall street billionaire john childs is one of 165 men accused of paying prostitutes in a separate probe in vero beach. all three deny wrongdoing. special counsel robert mueller sentencing memo for paul manafort is out in the redacted document, he writes the former trump campaign chairman repeatedly and braisinbrazening violated the lw no. word of russian collusion. he called for a stiff sentence. manafort pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy in september. he is set to be sentenced on

march 8th. congresswoman maxine waters apologizes to millennials struggling to find a job. >> the millennials have said to us i like it when you speak truth to power. we have done everything that you have told us to do only to find we can't get a job. millennials, i'm sorry about that. katie: the california democrat who chairs the house financial supervisors committee said she is aiming for better opportunities for young people. one survey shows millennials have seen economic improvement in recent years. and those are your headlines. there is, what, like 6 million jobs available right now? i think there is a skills gap. pete: my policy platform is i'm sorry you don't have jobs. katie: i honestly think there is a skills gap. pete: there are jobs available you have to know how to do the job to get the job. tough love get the skills. griff: no word whether millennials accepted her apology. catholic student went viral

nick for the injuries that he has received and will receive probably for many years to come nick was wronged no doubt. the video validated his side of the story. i will just be honest from my perspective $250 million is wrong as "the washington post" may be seems like a lot of money. >> well, and i think that that, you know, many people feel that way and think that $250 million is a large figure. i think if you look at it though in the context of how does the harm or the reputational harm last over nick's lifetime, it's going to follow him around for many years. so, even though he was exonerated much like the duke lacrosse players were ultimately exonerated you still have to confront that in your life every year as you go forward. there will always be people who will have a very negative opinion of you. no matter how much has been -- no matter how well

it has been explained the other way. katie: "the washington post" is responding with a statement about the lawsuit from spokeswoman kristin kelly. we are reviewing a copy the lawsuit and we plan to mount a vigorous defense. what is the argument you are making in order to win this lawsuit? >> the number one argument is that that nick sandmann is a 16-year-old boy. journalistic standards and ethics require that you treat minors with special caution when you report about them. nick sandman is also a private figure. is he not a public figure. so all we have to do is prove that there was negligence and we do believe there was negligence on behalf of "the washington post." so, we do feel very confident. pete: a lot of people covered this. is the "the washington post" the only outlet you are focusing on? >> we are looking very closely at cnn. ntsb, nbc and also the associated press. pete: we will follow it todd mcmur tri, thank you.

>> thanks. katie: remember when democratic socialist bernie sanders said this about the crisis in venezuela? >> [speaking in spanish] >> i think clearly he has been very, very abusive. that is a decision of the venezuelan people. katie: now is he backtracking a bit. we will show you that next hour. pete: it's nascar's most patriotic race folds of honor quick trip 500. good friend major dan rooney joins us live from the atlanta motor speedway with the gold star family being honored today. we will bring it to you. ♪ just one day ♪

pete: natalie and gina, we are so grateful for men like your father and what they do on the battlefield for all of us. what does it mean that you hear on thhere on the home frone recognized you get this scholarship from folds of honor that your country truly appreciates what your father did? >> it means so much to me and to my sister and my mother that he is honored after giving his all for us and for his country. that he is remembered. and that his sacrifice wasn't in vain. that we are receiving this help and we are getting our chance to do everything that he wanted us to do. pete: very cool. griff: sorry, dan, to interrupt. i just wanted to make sure gina gets in a picture here. we were shown a picture of your father and so grateful for his service. tell us a little bit about your dad. how do you want the world to remember him? >> they just said to share a

little bit about your dad. >> oh, i don't have a lot of specific memories of my dad but i remember like how kind he was and how much he cared just about people in general but especially about his family, of course. pete: no words needed to understand. >> natalie was sharing with me about her new dream, which ties back to her dad. and i think everybody would love to hear that. >> yeah, yeah. >> all right. so once i graduate from university with a nursing degree, i'm hoping to join the army to become a military fight nurse so it all kind of comes around. katie: very cool. i'm sure is he very proud. pete: dan, tell us about the race briefly today what it is all about today. >> i mean, this is the most patriotic race in nascar. i mean, there are a lot of great races out there but today we shine a bright light on the fact that

pete: she should run for president. they don't care about the constitution. lower the age and she should run. katie: maybe she shouldn't run because she believes in socialism and as we have seen over the last couple days socialism has failed especially in venezuela things getting serious. civil war sparked by the failures of socialism in that country and the brutal dictatorship of nicholas maduro continues to reign. yesterday the united states dropped a bunch of humanitarian aid and humanitarian supplies at the border. maduro forces then kept that aid out from getting to the people and lit it on fire. and then he kicked out all of the colombian diplomats and cut ties with that country while he was dancing in the capital. griff: he was dancing and the first time that the venezuelan national guard troops had fired on protesters. that's two were killed. 300 injured. pete: there was a pro-maduro

rally happening as the showdown was happening on the border. united states has put a lot in the guaido opposition government. and they were using, not using but this aid was a flash point. would maduro allow the aid to enter from colombia into venezuela? and he made it quite clear we are not letting any of this in. 300 people injured a couple of people killed. not many defections. a few defections from the maduro government. a big violent showdown jed yesterday. that's what a dictator does dances in the streets as his country is falling apart as showdowns happen on the border. he doesn't care about the humanitarian consequences that guy right there who is dancing on stage wants to keep his power and he doesn't care that his people are suffering in the process. and our state department has throw down on the opposition government. this is a statement from ourselves mike pompeo. he said now is the time to act in support of democracy. and respond to the needs of the desperate venezuelan people. the united states will take action against and hold accountable those who oppose the peaceful restoration of

democracy in venezuela. this is at logger heads, katie. not clear where it goes next. katie: yesterday we saw thousands of people protesting military bases in venezuela trying to convince the military who is still siding with maduro to defect and be loyal to the new president juan guaido. he was also on the colombian border yesterday. john bolton the national security advisor who on that note, piece of paper at the white house during a briefing a couple weeks ago he said 5,000 u.s. troops to bolivia. this is getting very violent very quickly. and ultimately the united states display to take more measures than simply trying to drop aid at the border into venezuela. so the white house is watching this very closely as well as the state department. >> former state department foreign service officer lindsey singleton who we had on this program last hour. said socialist policy in action. take a listen. >> what we are seeing here is a humanitarian crisis. that is -- it's man made. it's caused by years of

severe economic mismanagement, failed social policies and corruption. showdown is a choice of between right and wrong. the maduro regime has decided to continue to starve its people. but, in the meantime, you have venezuelan armed forces who right now have the choice to side with the people that they committed to serving and allowing aid to come in. pete: something has to change for those forces to make a whole scale shift to the opposition. dictators don't give up their power voluntarily. think saddam hussein, think muammar qaddafi. because they don't have another option. so you know our leaders in our state department and defense department and white house are considering new measures, considering the fact that maduro effectively blocked the aid and said i don't care what you want. katie: back here at home becoming obviously a political topic as well. senator bernie sanders has been a fan of venezuela. praised their policies in the past and just recently refused to call maduro a

dictator. listen. >> is nicholas maduro a dictator, senator, for you. and should he go? >> i think clearly he has been very, very abusive. that is a decision of the venezuelan people. griff: sometimes you get on a channel and get a little bit far out over your skis. bernie sanders is walking that back a little bit. hire is a tweet bernie sanders has put out that the people are in venezuela are endurenduring a serious humanitarian crisis. the maduro government must put the needs of its people first. allow humanitarian aid into the country and refrain from violence against its people. pete: this guy is all in for socialism and quasicommunism. destroying their own economies and pushing their people into the third world. katie: reason why eis not

condemning maduro and condemning socialism and talk about why socialism there collapsed because his supporters for many, many years and the left side of the democratic party now doesn't want to condemn maduro. they still believe in that socialist system. as f. they condemn it, it means that the things that they believe in has failed. that's why you are not hearing him talking about that. griff: that's right. the bread lines bernie nickname. you talk about bernie sanders in 2016 started talking about redistributing wealth and taxing the rich there was an audience for that this is an entirely different thing talk about the socialism and destruction. >> the democratic party is talking about socialism these days. new poll out recently out of new hampshire in the democratic primary. bred line bernie is still atop the field according to primary voters on the democratic side. bernie sanders 27%. joe biden 25%. kamala harris 12%. elizabeth warren 9%. amy klobuchar somehow getting 8%. anyway it, shows you look at all of those politicians

they are all leftist. some are liberals bordering on the line of leftist. most have embraced socialism. bernie sanders lost last time because hillary clinton had the system rigged. the soul of the democratic party is in socialism and you see it in the polls. katie: see it in the split in the democratic party and real shift to the left whether you have someone like bernie sanders who is open about his socialist views and actually getting quite irritated with the rest of the field who have somewhat taken on his views without giving them credit. you wonder what joe biden, if he can actually come into a race and somehow make a path with that moderate vote in a democratic primary. griff: exactly. if you look at that poll again and look at those names you have essentially with the exception of salad comb klobuchar there. all in on socialist left. joe biden has a choice to make right now. is he at the top undeclared. is he going to go the moderate route or is he going to embrace socialism?

pete: amazing we declined joe biden a moderate in that field. long-time liberal. the party is completely left, captured by leftist. you are right he will be the bellwether. i don't think he can survive. when the question comes up are you for open borders, medicare for all. abolish ice? free college for everybody? what does joe biden say? if he doesn't say what the left orthodoxy says he will be booed off the stage. katie: dianne feinstein talking about math and things that work or don't work math. those kinds of things. all right. turning now to your headlines. >> a suspect is dead and deputy in serious condition after officer-involved shooting in tennessee. deputies went to a home for a welfare check when they say the suspect barricaded himself inside and fired shots. police returned fire and deputy steve hinkle was hit in the crossfire. the suspect was later found dead inside the home. there is a vigil today for deputy hinkle. a flight instructor and student are killed in a

them back. we could talk about the distractions that they have with -- they try to distract away from the fact that the leading figures in the dnc here in virginia, and the commonwealth of virginia, it's a raging dumpster fire right of the major players in the dnc. you can look at the issues that senator kamala harris had with the fact that one, she lied about some trivial things. she didn't need to lie about. she had senator cory booker lying about or being accused allegedly, right, of trying to force himself on another person in a bathroom. you have elizabeth warren lying about her ancestry. you have a lot of these distractions and they have nothing to offer. all they are offering is more government with them in charge and i will tell you, pete, i remember this quote from ronald reagan he said if more government is the answer how stupid is the question? [laughter] pete: great point. may they also be distracting from the fact that this president has, you know, brought about economic prosperity in some of those communities, african-american not to use

falling away from institutions that connect people to one another. what we always used to count on for just getting to know people for a small personal safety net if something goes wrong for a good role models. all of that comes from belonging to things. and for most of the middle class, middle america, working class, the main thing people have always belonged to throughout america's history has been church. >> why was president trump able to connect so well to what you saw? >> well, he said, trump said the american dream is dead. and the elites didn't buy it because, in their circles, it looked alive. there was still strong, you know, little leagues, public schools. country clubs in the elite circles. the suffering really was real. and this wasn't seen in the elite circles because they saw their own communities being fairly strong. and because some of the elites don't think church has value. griff: what does going to church bring? >> i'm a catholic i think ultimately at the end of the day this has to do with getting into heaven. even if you look at it from a secular lens the numbers

really show. the numbers show did you go to church you actually live longer. if you go to church regularly, your children are less likely end up addicted to drugs and finish high school. men who go to church are more likely to get married and less likely to get divorced. all of these good life outcomes, the numbers show again and again going to church. now, again, i want to say going to, belonging to, that's the key here. griff: i just converted to catholicism in recent years. try to go. a lot of times i'm on the road. a lot of times people aren't going. >> a lot of forces calling people away. one is technology. easier on a sunday morning to sit home the way we connect with people is changing every day. seven days out of the week because of facebook, twitter, your phone. but also there has been one big problem that i talk about throughout the book is government has displaced a lot of what churches used to do. one draw to church for people was this is an opportunity to feed my neighbors. now my neighbors are getting

food stamps. so they don't need it. the government has taken away some of the purpose of church. other problem is churches themselves. they have frittered away some of their credibility. our church, for instance, has had its horrible abuses and that drives people away. griff: you are pointing out the divide. how does that divide politics? >> trump appealed to the people who saw that the american dream was dead. and these were mostly the people who wanted to belong to something but there just wasn't enough in their community to belong to. there wasn't the social infrastructure that so many of us, if you are in a strong religious community you know the value of it imagine being out there reaching out for something to help you help your neighbors or to have a safety net for yourself and it's not there. so, trump knew that the -- he was willing to take on the elites, say the pessimistic thing that the american dream seemed dead and people saw wait a second, washington is actually waging a war on our churches and on our institutions. griff: fascinating, ted. where does it go in 2020. >> in 2020 the question will

be county democrats see this is real? if they see the suffering is real. donald trump will have a real challenge. griff: tim carney thank you alienated america. griff: next, ed henry is live in hanoi, vietnam. there he is. what happened in amy klobuchar didn't have a fork for her salad? she used a comb. so, piece is giving it a try this morning. so far he is doing pretty good. is he doing this in honor of the senator from his state. don't miss it. pete: it's doable. ♪ ♪

times" article. she says she pulled a comb from her bag and began eating the salad with it according to four people familiar with the episode handed the comb with a staff member with a directive clean it. >> senator from your home state we have given you a challenge to eat all of these different salads with different kinds of combs. can you do it. pete: i think so. this one has a good surface area and good stabbing potential. katie: eleventh a large fork. hair pick works. griff: we don't know exactly what comb it was. pete: that's why we are doing hard hitting journalism this morning to determine what the best comb is. katie: very different comb. >> clean your teeth with this comb. i don't know what you are going to be, seems to be tuna. i don't like i will eat anyway. more of a spoon type comb. griff: there is some leadership. katie: can you eat the lettuce, can you stab the

tomatoes at the end of that thing. pete: sort of mangel them. griff: teeth on that comb very close that would be difficult. pete: a bit of a man comb. katie: that's a large comb. katie: this one can cut chicken. we have verified it can out chicken. can it cut apples? pete: can i do work on the salad. katie: can you get the lettuce? pete: kind of hard. griff: almost went in. pete: weren't they on a car. katie: in a plane. katie: you have to be careful with that. final one. few more pick as bit larger. this seems to be the good shape vertical teeth? pete: two go in together. griff: tossing it now.

you like kim jong un, too? >> he has best hair. has good hair. ed: what do you think? beef? this is so good. that chili sauce was hot. i have got to be honest that i wasn't exactly doing hard-hitting journalism there either. when i talk to local folks a lot of people here on the ground in hanoi -- a lot of people we will play an older man next hour very impressed with president trump's leadership skills. the talk here in hanoi is about giving peace a chance. i find that interesting because of what we have been talking about all morning with the president's critics saying a year or so ago he is a warmonger. is he going to lead us into a nuclear war with north korea. instead, here we are in the streets of hanoi talking about the possibility, at least of peace. katie: kim jong un will

begin his trip shortly by train to hanoi to meet with president trump. what can we expect at this summit that may be different from the first one in singapore? >> well, katie, you are right. in fact, he is already on that train. it's going to be a two-day train ride. he left several hours ago from pyongyang. we are told it's going to take two days. it's about 2800 miles. if that seems like a long time. president trump is going over 8,000 miles on air force one roughly to get here from washington. what's going to be different this time, singapore was breaking the ice. the president of the united states sitting down with a dictator from north korea, something few people could have predicted. bottom line here is we need to see specifics this time. the president wants to push for denuclearization by the north koreans. the north koreas want the u.s. to start loosening economic sanctions to get that economy going again. they are in desperate straits. pete: maybe the train is because is he in to the green new deal. he is not into toxins he is

taking the train. ed: we have been told it's a green and yellow train that kim jong un's father first used. so it's a green train, literally. pete: there you go. katie: look forward to your special tonight at 8:00 p.m. see you next hour as well. now to your headlines. shocking video of a woman dangling from an 8 story window to escape a burning building. firefighters rushing through smoke prying open the apartment door to reach her. they get in and pull her back inside to safety. chinese authorities believe an electric heater may have caused the fire. and ever wonder what goes through a kid's mind while they are playing sports? it probably goes something like this. >> my legs are tired. i'm not in this group. katie: a canadian dad miked up his 4-year-old to better understand what his young players are thinking. it turns out they think about mcdonald's. naps, and anything in between. pete: that is true.

[laughter] griff: so we want to bring in fox news contributor mike huckabee to find out what do you think, first -- governor, good morning, what do you think about this tweet? >> i'm always in favor of a salute to america. that's a great idea. i'm not as gung ho about a washington, d.c. military parade.

simply because most of the people there, i don't think, would appreciate it as much as it would be if in instead of in d.c. it was done at all of the communities across america that actually host military bases. whatever they are, coast guard, marines, air force, army, navy. and let those communities celebrate the people that make their community a much better place to live because of the presence of those military bases and posts. katie: i should clarify. he did not say it was a military parade. he has talked about a military parade in the past, he's saying this is a salute to america, so it may or may not be the same -- pete: governor, he'll get panned for this, but his larger point is recognizing patriotism is an important thing for a healthy country to do. >> i'm all for that, and i think it's a great idea to celebrate america. we don't do enough of it. we have too many people denigrating america. look at what's happening in places like venezuela. they got nothing to celebrate

down there because they went socialism. it's a great way to celebrate not just america as a place, but america as the ideal of freedom and democracy where we choose our government and where we can speak our minds and disagree except in today's political environment where you get in real trouble for speaking up and speaking out. griff: governor, what is your thoughts? we saw a very tragic day in venezuela yesterday with the national guard opening up fire, at least two killed, hundreds hurt. what are your thoughts, and what does it tell us about the lesson of socialism? >> well, i think we're seeing what socialism ultimately breeds. it breeds discontent among the population and brings a power-hungry dictatorship. when you're oppressing people as you do ultimately under socialism, the only way you can keep the people subjected to that nonsense is that you have to use strong force and actually go out and hurt and kill them. that ought to be everything we need to know about whether or not we want to embrace socialism, so i hope the

democrat candidates for president who keep telling us how wonderful it is would maybe watch 15 minutes of the footage from venezuela and repent of their sins on this sunday morning. katie: governor, just to follow up -- sorry, pete -- what do you say to people who say venezuelan socialism could never if happen here, this is not the style someone like bernie sanders is proposing for america. what is your response to that? >> well, i wish that were true, but the fact is there have been a lot of strong nations across the world including venezuela that was economically strong and robust that went the way of socialism. so it can happen anywhere where people are foolish enough to embrace it and naive enough of to listen to the nonsense that leaders will present when they say we can all have, you know, the dream, we can all have the same, and we'll go after these rich people. but going after rich people doesn't make the poor people rich, it just makes the rich people poor. i don't know why anybody thinks that's something to celebrate,

because when the rich people get poor, they can't give jobs, bonuses, they can't travel and create jobs. i mean, look, i get it, some people have more money than they need perhaps, but it's their money. they can do whatever they want to with it. and it's not a crime to earn money. that's capitalism, and thank god there are some people who have earned a lot, because they're the ones who have given to libraries and schools and hospitals and universities, and they have richly blessed all of us with things we wouldn't have if it had not been for their charity and benevolence. pete: well, it's not a crime yet, governor, but if some get their way, including a freshman newly elected, is deeming herself the boss of the democratic party. take a listen. >> i'm at least trying and they're not. so the power is in the person who's trying regardless of the successful -- of the success. if you're trying, you're driving the agenda, you're doing all this stuff. i just introduced green new deal

two weeks ago, and it's creating all of the conversation. why? because no one else has even try, because no one else has even tried. people are like, oh, it's unrealistic, oh, it's vague, oh, it doesn't address this little, minute thing, and i'm like, you try. you do it. [laughter] [cheers and applause] 'cuz you're not. 'cuz you're not. so until you do it, i'm the boss. pete: she's the boss. >> if we could purchase what she knows and sell it for what she thinks she knows -- [laughter] we would all be rich across the entire world. the irony of all of this is that she thinks she's the only one, and there's nothing, frankly, more frightening than a leader who believes nobody is quite like me, nobody is as smart as i am, nobody's trying as hard as me. that is a level of arrogance that we rarely see in public officials -- well, let me put it this way, it's rare that they

actually express it in public. katie: yes. >> a lot of them have the messianic complex, but most don't declare it. griff: governor, that's not fair. she's leading already. she's redistributing the salaries in her office. she's going to make sure that every entry-level staffer gets $52,000, a big hike for entry-level 20-somethings, but she's going to have to do it at the cost of the more senior people, the chief of staffs that would normally make over $150,000 can only hope to get $80,000. at least one senior staffer saying, well, we're going to have to do this, so it's okay. interestingly enough, by the way, or she makes over $170,000. >> yeah. why didn't she take her salary and split it up instead of taking away her chief of staff, who i bet works harder than she does. of course she can give raises, it's not her money. when she owns a business and she has to make payroll out of her

own bank account as i've had to do and others who own businesses have to do, then come tell me about how raises ought to be guaranteed, because she's not using her money. she's using ours. and secondly, if 52,000 is a good salary, why stop there? why not make it 100,000 or 200,000? katie: right. >> i mean, this is the thing of socialism. they not only believe that they have the ideas, but they also get to set the amounts and determine what is fair -- katie: well -- >> beautiful word, what's fair. katie: margaret thatcher used to say the problem is you ultimately run out of other people's money. president trump is meeting with kim jong un this week in vietnam. he's going by train to meet with the president. what can we expect from this second summit between these two leaders? >> well, one of the things we've already seen is that north korea has stopped, you know, firing off rockets and missiles. they've behaved better. i never thought that this was

going to be a single event. it's going to be a process. it always is when you're dealing with very complicated diplomacy. but give this president credit, he reached out to north korea, he's been effective and successful in building a relationship that no other u.s. president has done in the 70 years since there's been this logger jam. he's essentially ended the conflict of the war, the official war between north and south korea, and he's sitting down for another talk, and i think we're moving forward. is it perfect? probably not, but we're making progress because this president has the gunpoints and the vision -- the gunpoints and -- . pete: speaking of guts, the president also staring town china on the trade deal. he's ultimately saying we've got to get china onboard to denuclearize in north korea. do you think the pressure on trade can weigh in on north korea as well? >> absolutely. i mean, it's always been my view

that the key to getting north korea to behave better was to bring china in on it because they really hold the big stick over kim jong un. i think it's all kind of coming together, and the president has shown not only vision and leadership, but what he's really shown is he gets a big picture world view, and a lot of people looked at everything in compartments. i think he sees it as one great big global unit and how to weave the pieces together to make it better. pete: we shall see. governor, thank you very much. >> great to be with you. katie: turning now to your headlines, three crew members are believed dead after an amazon cargo plane crashed into a bay near houston. the jet flying from miami plunged more than 3,000 feet according to the flight aware. witnesses say the twin engine operated by atlas air nose dived into the water. the three victims were the only people onboard. crews are searching for the plane's black boxes to figure out what happened. powerful tornadoes in

president trump, this poll, but also for republicans who can't afford a repeat performance with this voting bloc in 2020. so i take two big takeaways from this poll. one is that even though many women say they often don't like the president's style or tone, they're willing to overlook that on issues that are extremely important to them and their families. and the second part, even though democrats and journalists want to peddle a narrative that there isn't a crisis or that the wall, as nancy pelosi would say, is an immorality, that's just not resonating even with suburban women. katie: 50% of suburban women approve of president trump's emergency declaration. now, what does that mean for democrats going into 2020 when they talk about tearing down border walls that are already in place? not addressing the humanitarian crisis and illegal immigration as a policy pointal together? >> well, i think what women want and many americans want, they want some compromise with

republicans and democrats. let's not forget that democrats have been hypocritical about this issue. they were for border security before they're now against it. and women are looking at this and seeing there is a drug crisis, there is an issue with how many people are coming here illegally, and if also as you mentioned the humanitarian side of this. i think as a woman who is a mother, looking at the women and children who are risking their lives to come here, it's a problem. i think democrats need to be careful about how they message this issue, because the president currently seems to be winning on the crisis narrative. katie: are democrats not addressing the issue of immigration, or even republicans, is this a liability for them going into 2020? as you've seen, nancy pelosi wants to bring a resolution to the floor to condemn president trump's national emergency declaration, but they still don't have anything in the works on soming kind of reform package. >> well, even the national emergency approach, it's, i

think for many people looks more of the semantics behind it. of course, many republicans do not like use of executive authority in this instance, but i think the average person across the country says, well, if congress isn't going to do anything, then we want the president to do something. so with democrats i do think they have to be extremely careful, because if you even see suburban women supporting the president in this area, i think they need to come around on this issue. katie: all right, beverly, we appreciate. thank you. >> thank you. katie: and coming up, a message from chicago leaders about actor jussie smollett accused in that attack hoax. while the aldermen say the apologies aren't happening fast enough. plus, hollywood's most anticipated night is here without a host. mike loftis has the deplorables guide to watching the oscars, coming up. ♪ ♪

singapore, i was there, and it was a good table-setter for this. opened the door. and i think the president's national security adviser, john bolton, said it best recently when he said the president can't make kim jong un walk through this open door. and that's what the president is going to try to do on the ground here in hanoi in just a few days which is say, look, the economic potential for north korea, the door is wide open, and look at what happened here in vietnam postwar. this economy has been very strong as well. it's growing. still a communist country, but there's been economic reforms. so maybe kim jong un can have a little butt of both. the other thing, quickly, i'd point out, the president's got a string of tweets in the last few moments. he talks about the role of china and president xi being behind these talks. think about a year and a half ago when the president was talking about bombing if he had to. since then north korea hasn't been testing missiles, number

one. there's been these diplomatic talks and, number three, the president has been working with china on the trade deal all his critics said he could never get done. so he's great success in round one in the talks with north korea with some help from china, and number two, or he's also developing success -- it's not done yet -- on trade with china, working out that tariff ballot. so if you see all this coming together, he's meeting face to face, one-on-one with kim jong un this week and teeing up the possibility of meeting one-on-one with president xi of china in the next couple of weeks as well. a lot of big stuff -- pete: ed, what are you hearing about what's on the table. if we want north korea to get rid of their nukes, verifiable inspections, are we talking about troops out of south korea? are we talking about guaranteeing his defense? what are you hearing, if any, specifics? >> reporter: the president has left the door open to eventually getting out about 28,500 u.s.

troops still in south korea but not in the short term. he wants to leave that there, carrot and stick approach, use the economic incentives as the carrot, leave the stick of u.s. military presence in south korea. what's on the table here is potentially ending the korean war. finally there was an armistice, but they never formally ended the war. that could give kim jong un some cover to say, hey, look, this is another step forward of you showing peace on the world stage, number one. and number two, what kim really wants here is to get the u.s. to start relieving economic sanctions. the president's position at least on the way in here is he's not going to go there in terms of relieving that boot on the throat in terms of economic sanctions on pyongyang unless they start moving for real towards denuclearization. they talked a good game in singapore about that, but the u.s. intelligence community says kim hasn't follow up. guess what? they talked about the president starting nuclear war, he's been

breaking out, maduro is firing on his own people. there are some military de fictions happening and they are still loyal to maduro but there are people defecting, but it's getting worse. griff: and that is going to play out you'll likely see scenes again today that we saw yesterday at the national guard troops there, firing on protesters two killed hundreds injured, secretary of state mike pompeo is responding saying this now is the time to act in support of democracy and respond to the needs of the desperate venezuelan people. the united states will take action against and hold accountable those who oppose the peaceful restoration of democracy in venezuela. pete: this is a big clash. the white house has gone fully behind guaido. they've called on maduro to step down and he's doubled down on his dictatorship. his people are suffering. he doesn't care. they tried to deliver aid across-the-boarder and now venezuela has severed ties with colombia where the aid was supposed to come through. i believe it's john bolton our

very very abusive. that is a decision of the venezuelan people. pete: an following up on that, senator bernie sanders sent out a tweet recently from fantasy land. the tweet said the people of venezuela are enduring a serious humanitarian crisis and the maduro government must magically put the needs of its people first allow humanitarian aid into the country and refrain from violence against protesters of course he's done none of those things and there's no indication he will do any of them without a reason to do so. we've flirted with military action that has potential consequences where the dictators don't just step down usually. >> katie: we're seeing in that he has no interest in allowing aid from the united states or other governments to come in. governor mike huckabee was on the show earlier talking about this issue. >> i think we're seeing what socialism ultimately breeds. it breeds discontent among the population and it brings a power -hungry dictatorship among the leadership because when you're oppressing people as you

do ultimately under socialism the only way that you can keep the people subjected to that nonsense is that you have to use strong force, and actually go out and hurt and kill them. that ought to be everything we need to know about whether or not we want to embrace socialism pete: this will be a big part of the presidential race in 2020. we're already hearing a lot about it what we've heard a lot about over the last couple of years is robert mueller and the special counsel we're awaiting this report so steve bannon the former chief strategist, the campaign manager and then chief strategist in the white house was on another network just this morning so this is brand new sound from steve bannon talking about how the democrats regardless of what's said in the report plan to weaponize it. listen. >> we've allowed the democrats because they take control of the house to weaponize a whole bunch of investigations. they're going to be able to weaponize the mueller report and i think in the united states right now we're good for the next four or five months going to be into a time in the u.s. and that will be by the release of the mueller report over the next couple weeks.

griff: it's interesting yesterday were were talking to corey lewandowski who said one of the best things they can do is to make this entire mueller report public, as fast as possible, and get it all out there. pete: bannon believes that 2019 will be all about this report no matter what because there will be enough for new cycles to go on and on and on and they are already savatessed they have to talk about it and getting to 2020 means getting through that mess in 2019 expos ing it all. >> katie: they're going to move the goal post too on what they expected from the mueller report and of course the house democrats are wanting to investigate the russia issue outside of the ruler report so not exactly getting what they want on collusion but we are looking towards 2020 this will certainly be part of the debate and cnn recently ran this headline, asking in an op-ed what if trump refuses to accept defeat in 2020 and in that piece it said "regardless of who runs in 2020 if trump loses will he leave the oval office peacefully " implying what? pete: just asking the question.

we just want to know, will he leave or it's all the flirtation with the dictator thing like he's not holding to the constitution as the rule of law. it's an opinion piece. cnn is all opinion by the way in case you didn't know but they have an opinion section where they say they do opinion. this kind of stuff is not healthy for our country. they didn't accept trump in 201e legitimate in 2020. griff: it is interesting to run a piece like that because it's sort of a time less piece and you run it on the peels of what you're seeing in venezuela. pete: and north korea and china trade talks like really important stuff going on and this is what our media chooses to focus on. >> katie: while you're weigh ing in here is an e-mail from bruce asking who will the democrats blame this time if trump wins in 2020? pete: maybe robert mueller if it's not strong enough. griff: larry says the left still does not accept our president they will be crying after the next election. pete: the tears of 2020 will even make 2016 look small.

>> katie: democrats are trying everything they can to stop president trump's state of emergency, 16 states are challenging it in court. griff: now house democrats are trying to pass a joint resolution speaker nancy pelosi urging members to pass it on tuesday morning, saying, "the president's decision to go outside the bounds of the law to try and get what he failed to achieve in the constitutional legislative process violates the

constitution and must be terminated." >> katie: joining us with his reaction former kansas secretary of state chris koback. thank you for being here today. tell us about why this is not necessarily an unprecedented thing for president trump to do? we keep hearing about how this is going to set a new precedent. is this really that new? >> no it's not. of the 31 national emergencies that are still in effect right now, that previous presidents have done including some early ones by president trump, two of the 31 deal with drug smuggling and cartels on the southern border so they were declared by presidents clinton and obama, democrats didn't protest then and they were about the same issue, it was a national emergency then, it was never addressed properly and it remains a national emergency today, so i do think it's purely political posturing and they won't have the two-thirds month necessary to override trump's veto. griff: when you say it's just political posturing, chris i want to ask you though when it comes to the lawsuits and president trump said he saw this

coming do you believe they have standing, which is really the starting point of where this begins? >> so to have standing a state must show that that state is directly injured by the whatever it is they're protesting and whatever it is they are trying to stop. it's going to be very hard for a state to show they are injured by the construction of a new barrier fence because every place we've constructed a new barrier fence, crime goes down, property values go up and the people of the state are safer so you've hit on a very important point. i don't think they have standing >> katie: speaking of barriers and the border you just returned from a trip to the arizona border on friday. tell us what you found? >> very interesting. so, there are sections of the arizona border that have the 18- foot tall steel fences. those sections are very secure. there's very little to none in terms of drug smuggling activity and human smuggling but there are other sections of the air after border white open, a horizontal steel beam to stop

cars and those sections are massive corridors for drug trafficking. if you talk to the border patrol agents down there they will tell you that it only takes a very small number of people to secure maybe a 20-mile section that has the steel barriers, but if you go to the open sections, it may take 20, 30 border patrol officers to control those. here is another fact that should really surprise a lot of viewers there are hilltops in that region, that mountain us region of southern arizona where there are drug cartel scouts on top of the hilltops with high-power binoculars and military weapons controlling the smuggling and telling the cartels where the border patrol vehicles are on american territory right now, and we don't have control of it. >> katie: there's parts of arizona where mens can't go to hunt or camp or anything else because of the violence and the danger there, so you're absolutely right about that. we appreciate your perspective this morning. griff: chris koback, thanks for joining us we appreciate it. >> my pleasure.

calls, we didn't have a whole lot of information given, so we entered her house with all of our medical supplies just more or less preparing for the worst, and when we walked in we saw her sitting up in bed and she had told us that she had accidental ly pressed the alarm and that's when we kind of started talking to her, relieved that it wasn't anything bad, and then she told us about her microwave, so we of course want to fix everything, so we went to the kitchen to try to fix the microwave and it just wasn't going to work and the frozen food was sitting in there. >> we couldn't leave it that way. >> it was around dinner time, and you can't leave somebody like that in good conscience. there's no way i could go back to the station and eat my dinner knowing that i left her that way i just didn't want to hate myself later on, so i just made the choice to do it. >> katie: did you tell her you were going to replace it and come back with it or did you get it and surprise her with it? what was her reaction to that? >> after i admitted defeat

trying to fix the microwave i went back into the bedroom and said i'm just going to buy you a new microwave and she was grateful and offered to pay me but just knowing she was able to eat that night and stay home and take care of herself was enough for me. pete: brian is this in your job description? >> [laughter] well, i wouldn't say it's actually in our job description but it's kind of the way we're wired. >> katie: what does that mean the way you're wired? you said you like to fix things. >> well, yes, we like to fix things but in our job we actually run in when people are running out so for us to be able to help somebody on a very small level like that and have a positive outcome most of the people that interact with us are having the worst time of their lives so for us to do something that's actually pretty cool, and it made her smile, so it was cool. >> that's all that matters. pete: doug, on be half of but sometimes it doesn't end so well and be half of all of those that put on the uniform for the rest

based on the war here and now economic reforms that have come. there's still communism here. there's still crackdown, but they've opened up the economy and they've seen strong results. the president also noting this morning the strong role of china in these talks. this is round two of course president tweeting, president xi of china has been very helpful and in support of my meeting with kim jong-un the last thing china wants are large-scale nuclear weapons right next door, sanctions placed on the border by china and arish aliso viejo been very helpful, great relationship with chairman kim. bottom line is remember the president's critics. year and a half or so ago saying look, the president's rhetoric about fire and fury being reign ed down on north korea if they don't come to the table that that was going to lead us to nuclear war instead its led to diplomacy round one in sing singapore and now round two in h anoi, chairman kim already on a train as you mentioned we're told that journey will take about two days over 2,000 miles,

and while i mentioned the president's critics, who have long refused to give him credit for the steps he's already taken there's a long way still to go. the president has promised he's going to push kim for denuclearization. he has not gotten there yet but i've spoken to some people on the ground here in hanoi. listen to what this man said about president trump's leadership. what do you think about donald trump? >> [indiscernible] ed: do you think we can get a peace deal? >> in vietnam, mr. kim is a risk. ed: so if the president trump can prevent nuclear war, on top

of what's also on the table here , which is officially potentially ending the korean war, which never officially ended but it's going to be hard for his critics to deny that he's going to have a shot at the nobel peace prize. pete: ed henry thanks so mutual be live on the fox news channel on the u.s. free cash flow summit so now to react we'll bring in senator joe lieberman, former presidential nominee in 2000 and the chairman of united against a nuclear iran. sir thanks for being here. >> great to be with you. pete: you know a lot about national security. let's get your take. what needs to come out of the summit? >> first i'm glad it's happening and i think we all ought to be grateful to president trump for bringing chairman kim to the table. secondly, i think you're not going to solve it all with these meetings in hanoi but the iran nuclear agreement which president trump correctly and courageously pulled america out of is kind of a model for what should not be in the agreement

with north korea, and here is what i mean. the iran agreement withs just a pause. it wasn't really a program to end the nuclear weapons development of iran. secondly, it didn't deal with missiles. it dealt only with the nuclear weapons, and only for a while, so i think -- pete: they get benefits up front >> that's the other one a lot of cash upfront and incidentally there's a history here which is that chairman cup's father a negotiated or to deal with the clinton administration in the 90 s put his foot on the brakes to the nuclear program, got a lot of money, spent the money and started the nuclear program. griff: quickly senator many in the media already are saying that the president is possibly likely going to agree to something that would be bad for us, are you worried, if you will , as those in the media, that the president might agree to something just for political appearances? >> no i'm not worried about that. i have confidence that he will

not be and part of it is based on how strong the president has been against the iran nuclear agreement, which was a bad deal, and therefore i don't think he's going to negotiate a bad deal with the north koreans. don't expect too much this week, but i hope it's something significant that gets us on the road to a good deal, which will be good for the world and good for north korea. >> katie: senator you bring up the iran nuclear agreement that is an ongoing debate that we're having in this country. you have some information about russia attempting intimidate a non-profit organization that's focused on denuclearizing iran. can you tell us more about that? >> so the organization is called united against nuclear iran, bipartisan group formed 10 years ago, to really with the goal of getting iran to end its nuclear weapons program through economic sanctions on people that do business with iran, which were adopted and then really, policing those sanctions and warning businesses that we have reason to believe we're violating the sanctions to stop

it or we'll call them out. on friday, a really remarkable thing happened. the spokeswoman for the russian foreign ministry had her weekly briefing attacked united against nuclear iran for pressuring russian businesses specifically attack our founder and ceo, mark wall as, who was ambassador to the u.n. under president bush 43 , and we just are responding and saying we're not going to be intimidated we're going to continue to pressure russian businesses and all other businesses. don't do business with iran. you're supporting a country that is not only trying to be a nuclear weapons power but is still the greatest supporter of terrorism in the world and we're calling on president putin if you're really against terrorism, which he always says he is, break your relationship with iran. pete: of course it must mean you're having an impact if they're calling you out is the point. >> thanks for saying that, pete because i think it's a complement actually to united against nuclear iran that the

russian foreign ministry for putin took us on but we're not going to be intimidated. pete: speaking of taking folks on you've got thoughts about the new congresswoman from the bronx , alexandria ocasio-cortez. she was giving herself praise recently, listen. >> okay. >> the power is in the person whose trying regardless of the success, like i just introduced green new deal two weeks ago, and it's creating all of this conversation. why? because no one else has even tried, so people are like oh, it's unrealistic, oh, it's vague , oh, it's doesn't address this little tiny thing and i'm like you try. >> [laughter] >> you do it. because you're not. so until you do it, i'm the boss pete: senator she says she's the boss others have called her the leader of the democratic party your take on where the party is headed? >> well i hope not. look she's a congresswoman. she won a primary. she didn't get an enormous number of votes but enough to win. she's one congresswoman. incidentally she's not typical

of the new democrats who have been elected to the congress. most of them are center or left, not far left, because they won in swing districts, that's how the house win democratic so she's got a right to speak out but what she just said made no sense at all because i can tell you, i worked on bipartisan climate change legislation for probably a dozen years in the senate with john mccain, lindsey graham, john warner, john kerry, and she really ought to do some reading of history before she mays statements like that, but okay, she stirred up interest in climate change. griff: i'm sitting with you now looking at the vice presidential candidate to al gore, alexandria ocasio-cortez was 11 years old if i do the math correctly when you ran and that came out and now she's saying no one is trying. >> katie: but what about her comments to you about look, this the new democratic party you've got in twitter back and forth

with her and she said who dis? >> right, so dis me. i've been around a while. here is the point. >> [laughter] >> in the american political system the time that the parties really say what they're about is when they nominate a presidential candidate. this is just beginning, and i'm saying that if ocasio-cortez is the leader of the pack, as we go into the presidential primaries next year, candidates going to be nominated who simply cannot get elected because america doesn't support the big government socialistic extreme and the immigration and customs enforcement that she's been talking about, so she's got a voice but let's not give it, let's not listen to it more than it deserves. pete: but if you look at the polls bernie sanders leading in new hampshire, kamala harris, e liz elizabeth warren, amy klobuchar, joe biden, some of the folks talking about amnesty, open borders medicare for all, a green new deal it feels like

where the soul of the democratic party is. >> well that's not where the soul of america is and that's what worries me and obviously i hope this just goes on that other candidates will get into it who will speak to the broad center ground of american politics and speak to people who want to have this fighting and want to see left, right, democrats, republicans, come to the center, negotiate compromise , solve some problems for america, and keep america strong. in the end, keep america strong, and keep the american economy strong. that's really what matters most to people, and the program that you just talked about, pete, that doesn't speak to those concerns. >> katie: well we know that today is a good day for you it's your birthday. so fox & friends we wanted to wish you a very happy birthday. pete: oh, look at that. >> katie: we got a cake for you. pete: it's green not because of the green new deal. >> katie: we like cake for breakfast on the show. so happy birth day senator.

pete: you're a good friend of the show and we appreciate everything you've done for our country. now we're going to enjoy your cake. >> katie: all the frosting. pete: we might eat it with a come. griff: do you know who else is going to eat cake with us? >> katie: maria bartiromo.

pete: a fox news alert violent clashes in venezuela killing deadly and injuring some 300 more maduro blocking humanitarian aid amid the country's worst economic crisis in history. >> katie: sunday morning futures host maria bartiromo joins us now so we're seeing socialism fall apart in venezuela and democrats have embraced socialism in the past don't want to talk about it. maria: well you're right and this is a perfect example of

socialism and dictatorship, leads to unrest. leads to suppression, for the people. this economy actually at one point was a vibrant economy but we see what these policies have done. look it's anybody's guess what happens now and whether or not maduro is going to stop digging in. he keeps digging in, i don't know if he's continuing digging in and then just eventually believes the momentum will carry you. pete: well look at alasad. everyone said he is going and here he is firmly for the most part control of his country so you'll have a couple of great guests to talk about this lindsey graham at the forefront of the discussions about how much influence do we really push there. maria: he really is. lindsey graham is coming up talking about that, talking about the upcoming summit with the president, and north korea, leader kim jong-un and we're also going to get into his role as the chairman of the senate judiciary committee because we've got a lot of things on the horizon there, trey gowdy former chairman of the oversight committee will also be with me talking about what will happen with the mueller report and whether or not we'll see any

accountability for what has taken place from the people at the top of the fbi. it seems now that the story is out. it is resonating, people are finally seeing truth. i'm talking about a swath of a big portion of people. i know we've been covering it and we've seen what has taken place in the last two years, but we've had a tipping point. now with bill barr officially in the job for two weeks you have to believe he's already had the sit-down with robert mueller and that's why the mueller report is going to be out in the next two weeks as well. >> katie: you mentioned lindsey graham who said he wants to look into the other side of the story which is the fisa abuse what the fbi was doing and to clean up some of those methods if the law was broken so it doesn't happen again. maria: that's absolutely right and basically what he told me a couple of weeks ago was that he was going to get all of the people who signed on to those fisa warrants obviously it was four times we're talking about people like sally yates, rod rosenstein, he wants them to come down and testify so that he could actually get on the record

, exactly what they were thinking when they signed off on a warrant to wire tap an american citizen, for really with flimsy evidence to do so. griff: you mentioned attorney general barr, with a very important decision to make and that is how much of the mueller report will be made public. maria: that's true and we'll see at this point the new buzzword on the left is it will be anti- climactic that's what you keep hearing from the left because three seconds ago he was on the cover of every magazine and he was the most important person in the world because he had the goods on donald trump and now that we're getting closer to the actual release of the mueller report, it's pretty clear that there was no collusion between donald trump and the russians, so now it's anti-climactic. we'll see what that means for the report. >> katie: maria we always appreciate you coming on. maria: lots coming up thank you so much. >> katie: still ahead the oscars are tonight so how well do we know our oscars history and the history of the show? we have a quiz, up next, oh, no i'm so bad at this.
