it'll be very exciting to have them on the ground there. great to have you here this morning. >> eric: a big week coming up. >> sandra: a big day, a big morning, a big week. thanks for joining us. we will see her tomorrow mornin morning. "outnumbered" starts now. >> harris: fox news alert on a busy monday, president trump taking on his critics and outlining his hopes for his second face-to-face meeting with north korean chairman kim jong un. the president set it apart the white house at any moment now, en route to a high-stakes summit in vietnam. you're watching "outnumbered." i'm harris faulkner. here today, melissa francis -- host of cavity on the fox business network, kennedy herself. fox news contributor jessica tarlov jessica tarlov, joining us in the center seat, chris wilson is here. republican strategist and former poster for the ted cruz campaign. when i got all enthusiastic just then, you look like i had pronounced her name right! [laughter] >> kennedy: traditional position. >> harris: are you ready to
9:01 am
jump in? let's get to it. during a gathering at the white house, the president sounded optimistic that the north korean regime is willing to give up its nuclear weapons. watch. >> we talk about something that frankly he never spoke to anybody about, but we are speaking and we think we can have a very good summit. i think we will have a very tremendous summit. we want denuclearization, and i think we will have a country that set a lot of records for speed in terms of an economy. >> harris: yesterday, secretary of state mike pompeo insisted president trump will not repeat mistakes of the past in drawing a stark contrast with the policy of the obama administration. >> test, pray, and cowher has been upended by president trump. we put real economic pressure on the north koreans. we have built out a global coalition. one of the critique is that we go it alone. we have built up the world's coalition to communicate to chairman kim that now is the time, and i was the moment. i hope we will make real
9:02 am
progress on that this week. >> harris: but democratic senator ed markey says there's a risk that kim jong un will seek to extract confessions from the president without giving anything up by himself. watch it. >> kim wants to have a personal meeting with trump, with hopes that he can, in fact, illicit confessions that might not be possible if it was just diplomats talking one-on-one. >> i think has to be very careful. >> harris: meanwhile, a former cia officer officer involved in high-level diplomacy with north korea talked on friday about an alleged conversation between secretary pompeo and kim jong un during pompeo's visit to north korea last april. the former cia officer is claiming that kim jong un privately told pompeo that he did not want his children to live with the burden of nuclear weapons. we bring it out to the couch. chris, what with the significance of that be in terms of what we are trying to accomplish?
9:03 am
>> chris: we are in the same generation of failed diplomacy advocates, they now criticize with the president is doing. it's a little bit tiresome to hear. what donald trump has been able to accomplish in a short period of time with his aggressive brand of diplomacy is more than they added their entire time under president obama. when beth back to less generation. whether you can achieve anything or its complete disquisition remains to be seen. frankly, it would be remarkable, because the kims don't care about anything except holding onto power. if they are able to take it a step further toward true denuclearization, what they have already compass is significant that category. it's frustrating for me to hear. markey point or less of the world continue to love criticism bombs. we have moved forward. >> harris: what you make of this suppose a conversation? none of us was in the room, so we can't quantify it. so that leaders north korea didn't see his kids grow up in a world where nukes are?
9:04 am
>> chris: and with these encouraging. if you have north korean leaders recognizing that the way in which the country has been developing come of the fact that they were continuing to test nuclear weapons, it probably doesn't bode well for the future of their children. their children's future, growing up in a world that is nuclear-free, that is positive. it means there is at least the opportunity for us to be successful and achieve a denuclearize to korean peninsula. >> harris: i thought it was interesting that was put this weight -- test, pray, and cowher is how we have seen the other side deal with it. >> kennedy: i think that was a progression throw varies in sad administrations, starting with bill clinton who set just a horrible tone for diplomacy with north korea. president obama said when he left office that it was the gravest threat posed to the united states into the world, the denuclearize to north korea. i think the fast is a nutritionist taken a completely different task is better for the united states in bed for peace. kim jong un talking about how he doesn't want his kids and
9:05 am
trapped further in a world where they are held hostage by the necessity for nuclear weapons -- i think the harder task -- do nuclear fission is one thing previous, it's difficult, it takes a a great deal of diplom, and what's harder is freeing those people. perhaps millions of people enslaved in labor camps in north korea, and really allowing a level of freedom. >> harris: he's got hardliners within his own country. and they off people who don't agree with them. >> kennedy: to cause a revolution from within, if people get a taste of freedom -- we are not just talking about people expressing economic and ability. people truly being held against their will. some of the most dire circumstances on earth. >> harris: when you pick places like singapore and hanoi to let some of the leadership -- even for them, they are coming to it in trades with no windows. so they really don't have any freedom, technically. but not like we were talking about with those people. the president treated this
9:06 am
today -- some funny to watch people who have failed for year. they've got nothing, telling me how to negotiate with her career. but thanks anyway." a lot of democrats, jessica, are critical of where the president isn't going forward with this. >> jessica: and a lot of republicans are, as well. john bolton is probably the most cautious of anyone. >> harris: consciousness and criticism are two different things. >> jessica: there's been implicit criticism. mike pompeo also sat down with tepper over the weekend and got kind of an embarrassing exchange where he said we wanted denuclearization, and he said "that's not true." and he said "that's a direct quote." it came out of the present made comments he was dissatisfied with and ended testing. brian kilmeade is pushing back against that saying it should not be the goal. denuclearization is the only appropriate goal for this. when you listen to senator merkley and some of the more hawkish members of the republican party, i think what they're asking for his consistency on this. and to ensure that no matter how these meetings go down, we know
9:07 am
clearly what america is after and what we will set her fork. i have the rest of it is unacceptable. >> harris: talk to me about the economics of this. because changing their worldview is kind of what's happening. >> melissa: that's interesting, because when you look at other regimes and despotic regimes around the world, you could see they are motivated by one of two things. you either have the ones that are motivated by wanting to hold onto power and have money, and then there are others that believe they have been destined by god to obliterate everybody else who doesn't agree with that. obviously that is the harder group of people to deal with. so when you look at kim jong un, or even put in, these are people where if money means something to them and helps them with their ability to hang onto power. so bringing him to hanoi is very interesting, because it's like, "here's a government structure that we don't agree with, but we are able to trade with them and they are able to be prosperous." you don't have to be democracy. i think kennedy makes a great point that the real problem is, how does he will onto power and hold onto his group with his own people and give them a little
9:08 am
bit of freedom and give up the nukes? it's going to be very hard, but he has to feel like it's a possibility to start on the road of, number one, not threatening people with nuclear weapons. number two, after that we then turned to the humanitarian situation in his own country. to everybody who says that we haven't gotten anything so far, ari fleischer made a great point earlier today -- they have to test those ballistic missiles in order to be able to use them to hit us. so, selfishly, we were talking about how that missile could hit hawaii. now that's not the case, because they are not testing those. so i know that's not nice for anyone else who is in the neighborhood, but it's an accurate to say that nothing has been achieved because americans are safer. we want that for everyone else. but that's just a point to be made. >> harris: it's very true. what you were saying, about the humanitarian situation of there, kennedy -- we haven't been able to impact. in fact, we have been able to put much pressure on china. but hanoi, vietnam, in a place where the chinese would like to move into those sees, as well. then you see a deal
9:09 am
potentially -- not to go down too much on the business network side of this -- but it's important. it's all the same story. >> kennedy: when you look at vietnam's economy, it had completely collapsed when they went into an isolated communistic system. then when they finally opened up their market and begin trading partners with the west end with the united states, you saw a much healthier economy. i think it's interesting, because singapore is still very authoritarian. that is more of a model for kim jong un. but vietnam chose the fruits of free economy and global trade. >> melissa: thou suspected to vote tomorrow on the resolution that would do away with president trump's emergency declaration on the border. the measure likely to pass a democratic support and could also pass the senate with some g.o.p. support. one of those who could buck the president, right now he has made up his mind. >> i don't know yet. i don't like the process. i don't think the emergency declaration law was written to
9:10 am
deal with things that the president asked the congress to do, and then the congress didn't do. it's never been used that way before. i want to look carefully at the law. i want to hear what the president's lawyers have to say about it. >> melissa: even if the measure lands on the president's desk, he has promised a veto. lawmakers are skeptical they would have the votes to override it. house republicans adam kinzinger recently got back from the air national guard deployment to the port. he says the president's right about the situation down there. watch. >> i support the emergency declaration. when i went down there, there's a lot of immigration issues. we sought a lot of groups coming across the border illegally. but we saw a lot of drugs, a lot of human trafficking. by the way, i have done three prior border deployments. all under president obama. so there was never -- it was never controversial under president obama. if this was just an immigration issue, i probably would also agree it doesn't rise to the level of an emergency
9:11 am
declaration. but this is drugs, this is human trafficking. >> melissa: meantime, nearly two dozen former congressional republicans in a bipartisan group of 58 former national security officials have come out against the president's declaration. chris, i will start with you. what's interesting to me, when you watch this come to the floor and he watched the vote-counting, i haven't heard nancy pelosi ask for anything for the dreamers and a really long time. i haven't heard her advocate on behalf of people. i'm only hearing the democrats say "no" to what they want to and what they are against. it feels like people have been forgotten in this. especially the dreamers. >> chris: it is, this is nothing more than a stunt. in the grand tradition of legislative stunt votes, it won't mean anything at the end of the day. you mention, even if it goes to the president -- which is unlikely -- he will veto it. my concern, some in her works are republicans, is that -- i wish every one of the republicans would vote and listen to it adam kinzinger set
9:12 am
on fox. it puts some republicans on the senate -- they are defending some purple to blue type areas. on the wrong side of an issue that's not going to go well in their state. it's a lot of people on our side, on their public inside, setting up for colleagues to be tougher situations to win reelection. >> melissa: jessica, i bet you disagree with that. >> jessica: i don't. purple states and counties are difficult for both sides. the same goes for democrats that are in more conservative districts who have to talk differently about border security than they do in new york city. jerry nadler can say whatever he wants about it up here, but it makes a difference if you are down there. kyrsten sinema is indicative of that. she voted with the president over 50% of the time when she was in congress. so it is difficult, but then there are republicans like will hurd whose constituency has a huge chunk of the board that we are talking about here. he says we don't need a wall. the problem has always been that the president made up an emergency when things got really bleak for him. he talked about it consistently through the first two years in the campaign, but then he suddenly got to a boiling point
9:13 am
and said it's a national emergency. yes, there are drugs coming, but they are going through ports of entry. which means we have people there who are stopping them. the numbers do not bear out his argument. if this is an emergency, if you look a border patrol statistics, the numbers are going down over the last two decades. when he gets up at the rose garden and he says, "i did need to do this but people are going to be skeptical. ">> melissa: we only know they are going through the ports of entry because they are being stopped and we have people there. but if they're going and elsewhere, we don't know about it. if you have sarah sanders got school on that. >> harris: had a different take. he said there areas outside jessica >> jessica: the president and i have always had a different take. [laughter] 's be when you can have a different take but the president, but lisa recently's have members of congress buying it for themselves as well. kim's in years only one i know of who is deployed recently we've had delegates go down there as well. the point i would make is, is a
9:14 am
good enough just to protect those areas where we say course of entry were we can keep of it? >> jessica: i think the differences ports venture versus national emergency. you can have a conversation about border security, but declaring a national emergency is issue. >> chris: of what adam kinzinger described, what part of that do you not believe is an emergency? >> jessica: i could do it, but i want to make sure kennedy gets in. >> kennedy: i don't understand why you got two different groups of people who go to different parts of the border and see to complete different things. what i would like to see is both of them swap and see if there are any consistencies with their reporting back of what's happening at the border or if this is just a series of confirmation biases. in that case, the whole thing is essentially a fraud and we are not getting the truth from anyone. if you want to know why drug cartels send drugs to ports venture, you have to go back and read some of the testimony from the a el chapo trial. because he was one of the largest exporters of drugs into our country, and they said they
9:15 am
went to these legal ports venture because they could get a lot more drugs through those points. >> melissa: in the big vehicle. there you go. comedian bill marr mocking people in red states as being less educated and earning less money than people in blue state states. whether that kind of a lead is invoked on mike bodes badly for a democrats 2020. plus, house intelligence committee chairman adam schiff vows to subpoena the meal or a part of the doj doesn't make it public. whether this is all about russia or if democrats have a larger agenda. we will debate. >> has never been a witness who has alleged him spacey between the term campaign in russia and yet come adam schiff -- that three had raven, adam schiff, who can see things nobody else can see. ♪ only one in ten veterans use their valuable va home loan benefit. but i've got some good news that will change that. newday's operation home. it lets veterans buy a home with no down payment and without paying one dollar out of pocket for closing costs.

>> melissa: we are giving you a life look right now of air force one. it is sitting on the tarmac there, at joint base andrews. we expect the president to arrive soon on marine one and board air force one. he is on his way, he will arrive by motorcade. pardon me. en route to hanoi, vietnam, for those talks with kim jong un. we expect him to maybe make a common doll not comment or two. we are not sure. you never know. >> harris: he always does that. but we know here in the east coast, the winds are vicious right now. >> melissa: that's true. remember, when he got out of the motorcade and he went over the sideline before? he has done that. >> harris: he sometimes does it. we don't know. >> melissa: will bring you to live when it happens. >> harris: a top democrat in congress is saying he's ready to haul robert mueller before his committee if the special counsel is not sufficiently forthcoming with the results of his investigation of the president. house intelligence committee chairman adam schiff spoke yesterday, insisting there is
9:21 am
evidence that president trump colluded with russia. collusion is not a crime. vowing to make sure the entire special counsel report is made public. even if new attorney general william barr withholds some information. watch. >> we will obviously subpoena the report. we will bring bob mueller in to testify before congress. we'll take it to court if necessary. in the end, i think the department understands that they are going to have to make this public. i think barb will ultimately understand that, as well. if he were to try and withhold and bury any part of this report, that will be his legacy. it will be a tarnished legacy. so i think it will be immense pressure. not only on the department, but on the attorney general to be forthcoming. >> harris: former republican house oversight chair trey gowdy with "game of thrones" reference, telling maria bartiromo on sunday that chairman schiff apparently sees evidence nobody else can. >> there's never been a witness who is alleged conspiracy

9:23 am
"the washington post" and "the new york times." that was always going to happen. it shouldn't surprise anyone. he has done the same thing since the beginning, and he has been rogue out there. unfortunately i don't know what trey gowdy's references. somebody will have to explain that to me about the "game of thrones" reference. he's going to do what he feels fits his narrative. it doesn't matter what the evidence shows. >> harris: is that your opinion customer he said he said before. >> chris: he has. if you look to the beginning of this process, adam schiff has leaked what's going on. anything that's made it's way out -- which is pretty tight. you can give the mueller team credit in terms of keeping things close to the best. >> harris: that's why he has bipartisan support. space if you're exactly right. >> kennedy: adam schiff is going to be so mad if that report is tepid! >> harris: some democrats have already talked about what they will do if it's not quite there. in the meantime, i'll tell you what is there. the president is at joint base andrews. getting ready. you have it win? it usually takes marine want to get their come at air force one. but that's where they are in the
9:24 am
motorcade. very windy conditions for the type of craft, i would imagine. so they made a call to be on the ground. then you are. you waiting for the president to leave for a history-making summit. the first one was, with the dictator of north korea, and kim jong un. every looking at a second summit with the president of the united states and kim jong un. and what will be achieved from this? at the new do nuclear's agent has been the goal, and then there's been some criticism. you seen that about the special envoy we are seeing now. some are clinical that we may be giving too much away and terms of sitting down having this much conversation with a brutal regime, but as kennedy was pointing out a while ago, they thought upwards of millions of people in custody. the human rights situation for the custody of my country. there is the president of the united states as he boards air force one. how much of a difference cannot president make? it's already changing in the
9:25 am
sense that we are talking with our country. melissa? >> melissa: it's interesting to put in perspective of how the american people are feeling about this, as we watch the president get aboard the plane. recent fox news poll -- president trump and north korea. approve or disapprove? 40% of previous policy so far. 41 percent do not approve. the u.s. taking military action to stop north korea's nuclear weapons program. right now, 49% in favor of military action to stop this program. 37% oppose it. that number is down a little bit from april, it was at 53%. chris, to me that says that people feel threatened. they feel concerned about this risk out there. >> chris: they feel threatened unconcern, but the bigger aspect is they are willing to do something. that's the unique aspect, the numbers you pointed out. you can look at the relationships. for venezuela today, there is a national threat coming out of south america. but you don't see the same
9:26 am
support intervening in the current situation there. that's what's interesting to me about it. you do have, right now, you got to put everything that goes on -- it's somewhat cynical, but this is what i do for living -- and to put into the prison of what it means for election. if the president is able to come out of north korea or make the claim that he is somehow taking us further down the road to a denuclearized north korean peninsula, is he's able to push kim for their long in the process of lightning up on his r him. i think that's a big deal. >> harris: kennedy, i want to get in there with this point because i mention it before. the president is aboard air force one leaving shortly for hanoi, vietnam. is about a 20 hour plane ride, normally, commercially. i think they might be able to get their little quicker but we will see. weibel covered every length of the way. a senior at administration official tells fox news the white house state department doj treasury and energy are expressing concern about president trump special envoy to north korea.
9:27 am
is he going to -- and this is a quote -- "get in too far over with negotiations with north korean officials?" even going into the summit there is some reported criticism for a senior administration official talking with fox news. kennedy, what do you make of it? >> kennedy: i don't think these talks are implicitly harmful. of course, i would like to know that the president has a solid agenda and is incredibly focused on extracting something that is not only to our benefit but makes the world a better and more peaceful place. the more talks we have and the more we lean on the side of trade and having good moves back and forth, the less you see a military threat. the one thing that north korea is asking for is for the united states to ease up on their alliance with south korea, doing military exercises in their backyard. the president has said that perhaps we have too many military bases open all over the
9:28 am
world, and that the one good thing about his presidency, you could say, is the unorthodox street he drew. >> harris: what makes a better and all the such, he had an interesting morning talking chinese data had a positive effect on the dow jones. this president making news, having a positive effect, she will come on terms of talking with chinese leadership as he gets ready to take off for hanoi, vietnam. air force one, center of your screen. we are covering it and we will come right back. we will take quick break. virginia stennett mike democratic lieutenant governor justin fairfax is facing new controversies day over his latest response of the sexual assault allegations against him. trixie has rhetoric crossed the line. details i had prayed the gloves come off here, though. democrats face a growing split over the green new deal pushed by congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez. now that freshman democrat is ripping senator dianne feinstein for her comments -- -- really,t

aisle, that kids are used as pawns in this way. the first video of dianne feinstein was only 3 minutes long for those a 40 minute interaction that came out after everyone had exploded that she was the meanest grandma in the whole world. she does have -- i think aoc is wrong to say that 30 years of activism on this issue doesn't matter. because it does matter, and she has her own climate change bill on top of that. when i was watching that, i saw bernie sanders -- a younger version -- versus hillary clinton. hillary clinton saying, "we need to know how to pay for these things. we need a policy that can actually be implemented and can pass." and bernie saying, "hey, i'm on my unicorn, here's medicare for all and free college tuition." and this is the fight that aoc wants to have with moderate democrats. it didn't work out in 2018. >> harris: you know what i see? i see an opening for republicans to get in there.
