2:08 am
the democrats never want to talk, the press never wants to talk about. think about the 2 years of president trump's leadership, lowest unemployment rate in 50 years, gorsuch and kavanaugh on the court, embassies in jerusalem, hostages from north korea, nafta agreement coming. that's what i tend to focus on, the amazing record we have seen under the leadership of president trump and you guys want to talk about a lawyer that worked for him for 10 years and came in and tole all kinds of lies, six lies which he said on the witness stand. rob: new protests expected in venezuela as opposition leader juan guiado returns to the country, guiado recognized by the united states and many other countries as interim president has been traveling lout latin america building support against the regime of disputed president nicolás maduro. violent protests turned deadly

2:15 am
president is proving he's a great president and they have a president who is trying to fix the problem, congress is not backing them up. the whole reason there's an issue on the border to begin with is because congress has failed to close the loopholes that causes these groups to come to the united states. before i retired i was with the secretary, 2 or 3 things you can do that's going to secure this border and stop this, you know, this surge of families coming. they failed to do it. congress likes to point at the congress' ratings, 45% approval, 40% approval, i guaranty their approval rate is a lot less because once again the president is on his own and they fail to do their job. rob: let's look at the four senators that are going to flip and probably force the president to use veto. you have rand paul, murkowski and collins are the moderate and
2:16 am
tom from north carolina are worried about democrats doing the same thing. the president said democrats will do this anyway. i might as well do it. what do you think of that? >> they have proven it. president obama, how long did he say he could not fix the daca situation. it's illegal, he hasn't got the authority to give people status but he did it and the dems are okay with it and he was sued over it. this president tried to end it and the courts say you can't end it, so they have shown, it's ridiculous argument and, again, what people need to understand is the president's failure on the border is america's failure, if the president does not get the security he needs on the border, the country is less safe. i don't think if republicans or democrats, there's no downside on securing the border, it's a threat to american people.
2:17 am
jillian: let's talk about alexandria ocasio-cortez for a second here, yet again we are seeing attacks against ice, this is a tweet from her march second over the weekend, if you're mad that i think people should know and people vote to extend ice powers, ice is a dangerous agency can zero accountability, wide spread reporting of rape, abuse of power and children dying in dhs custody, having a d next to your name doesn't make that right, your response. >> ice isn't dangerous, what's dangerous you have a congresswoman that does not follow through. she doesn't know fact from fiction, she said 3 things that ice was injecting children with antipsychotic drugs, never happened, there was an allegation that hhs did something like that, but she failed to mention those were unsubstantiated.
2:18 am
massive report of rape, let me make something clear. a child has never entered a family residential center and died. it's never happened. a child never died in ice custody. rob: when i hear the arguments usually from the far left when they say things like this, reminds me on attacks on police, they take one or two bad stories from massive agencies and try to paint the entire agency bad ignoring all the great work that police and that ice does in the country. >> excellent question, let's give aoc a couple of facts, number one, ice arrest dangerous criminals, 266,000 criminals, 100,000 assaults, 30,000 sexual assault, ice rescued 310 women from trafficking, they are not raping, they are rescuing them. ice rescued over 800 children from predators last year, they found them, rescued them and put them in safe hands, they rescued children and not kill them.
2:19 am
they arrested 2,000 predators and put them in jail, we took 5,000 criminals off the streets of new york, so, you know, we arrest dangerous people and ocasio-cortez should be saying thank you to men and women of ice who definite the nation and put lives on the line. rob: all the stories. jillian: a child in front of a train as it barrels down the track, the stunt that is stunning commuters. >> truth, facts and reason are under assault. we are living through a full-pledged crisis in our democracy. rob: and hillary is back marching in selma and slamming the trump administration and she did not come along, and 2020 presidential democrats walking along side

2:25 am
ivanka continues to lead education and work reforms saying these are policies that help all americans. >> very little opportunities for someone who wants to go vocational route, technical route because all the money is into a 4-year college system but one of the things we are working with congress on doing is higher education reform. we want to unleash innovation, we want america to be the best place for entrepreneurs, for companies to open and run their businesses and that will create jobs. i think fundamentally if you ask yourself the question are we better today than we were yesterday or we were 2 years ago, the answer is undoubtedly yes, that's what we want in a leader and the president has proven ability to execute on that mission. rob: ivanka has led the charge on one to have key figures behind the administration initiatives. jillian: 25 minutes after the hour, she thought she was applying for school right up the
2:26 am
street but maybe she needs geography mistake that's going viral. >> all of a sudden they are trying to take you out with bull shit. we believe in the american dream, not in the socialist nightmare. rob: if you didn't catch the speech saturday night, you missed the 2-hour show, president trump in 2016 campaign form during fiery cpac, would that help him win in 2020? we will debate next
2:29 am
around here, nobody ever does it. i didn't do it. so when i heard they added ultra oxi to the cleaning power of tide, it was just what we needed. dad? i didn't do it. #1 stain and odor fighter, #1 trusted. it's got to be tide. jillian: good morning, welcome back, a look at top headlines, at least 23 people are dead including children after tornado carves a path of destruction across alabama. officials in lee county are now using drones equipped with peep-seeking devices to scan

area for survivors, the storm system with violent weather. today the woman who left america to join isis could learn if she can return to the united states, attorney for hoda muthama are expected in court today, trump administration says she's not a u.s. citizen and she can't come back. the family sued the administration claiming she's a citizen and has right to return michael cohen to lay the ground work for impeachment. democrat jerry nadler says former lawyer implicated the president several times. documents from donald trump, jr. and others named by cohen in public testimony last week. snowstorm pounding the east coast overnight shutting down schools and causing major problems on the roads, all
2:31 am
travel actually, new york city getting several inches of slushy snow. the storm already canceling more than a 100 flights out of the area. snow falling from new jersey up to new england before it pushes offshore, janice dean joins us live on fox, under winter weather alert, this is a big one, janice. >> it is, jillian, same storm system, cold front that brought tornadoes across the southeast, we had over 95 reports of tornadoes yesterday, let's take a look at it where we had, of course, devastating damage and, of course, tornado deaths which is just so tragic unfortunately but this is because of the cold front of this powerful winter storm and there's where we typically see tornadoes this time of year, so not a surprise that we see tornadoes in this part of the country but we have been low so far in tornado reports this unfortunately makes up for it. okay, so the cold side of the storm bringing several inches of snow, close to a foot of snow in
2:32 am
parts of northeast, snowfall totals that i gathered last hour, connecticut, over 10-inches, parts of connecticut getting close to a foot of snow, in new york, interior section got over 6-inches, new jersey over 7-inches and the storm system is exiting but i must caution that the temperatures are going to be very cold, record cold over the next several days so any wet streets, wet roadways, potential for freeze is very high, so that's going to be the next danger as we go through the next couple of days even though it looks like it's melted it might not be. rob, back to you. rob: serious blizzards down south. the president igniting cpac with what many conservatives are calling his best speech yet using the same passionate rally cry that is worked so well in
2:33 am
2016. the collusion delusion, all of a sudden they are trying to take you out with bull shit, okay, we will always defend america's borders. our immigration system is so broken, folks, the new green deal, whatever the hell they call it, we believe in american dream and not in the socialist nightmare. rob: the kinds of speeches worked well getting him elected but will this fiery rhetoric be the key of winning in 2020, can it work for reelection, here to debate senior vice president of america rising alexandria and democratic strategists kevin chávez. kevin, i want to start with you. i know you probably hated the speech but it's hard -- to go for 2 hours and keep people into it the way he can, he has something very special when he connects with people that way, what do you think? >> i agree the speech at cpac
2:34 am
threw plenty of read meat to the base and got great reviews as you mention and a recent poll shows that president trump is still very strong among his base, but in some ways that's his problem too because he hasn't really expanded beyond the people who are hard-core supporters of his. in recent poll that came out that almost 4 in 10 people would not vote for the president, he does have headwinds he has to face as he prepares 2020, but the speech felt like campaign kickoff speech, felt like the first official campaign event frankly. it's going to be interesting but i do think he has headwinds with russia investigation, the public doesn't trust him on that and some of the other issues so we will see how independents and people in the middle respond to it. rob: alex, kevin raises a good point, the president's diminishing base, according to
2:35 am
some polls it's not that big anymore. can he get it back, can he get to a point where he can win in 2020? >> i think what the cpac reminded me of 2015-2016 rallies that he used to do and the reason why is because he has spoken away to the american people and the voters sound to be authentic and spoke in such a creative way that ended up breaking through the traditional sort of editorializing that went on, you know, in news rooms across the country and i think that, you know, he's rised a new cycle, that's for sure and conventional candidate on the democratic side i think giving himself or herself really playing catch-up. rob: kevin, second topic, we want to talk about electoral college and the movement in the country. we will show you a list of states that have either passed or introduced what's called a national popular vote bill, kind of gaining steam and you'll notice that these are all blue
2:36 am
states here, but democrats have come up with this idea, what do you make of this, kevin? >> well, has gotten steam in like you mentioned some of the blue states, colorado, governor indicated he just signed the bill which would bring i believe the total number of electoral votes who are in the compact to 180, 181 something like that, well short of the 270 that would be required to make sure that the popular vote winner would win the 270 electoral votes required to win. rob: i'm sure you will say you don't like the idea as republican, the reason the electoral college exists is because the founders from what i've read didn't necessarily trust pure democracy in purest form. >> sure. rob: but i guess the other side would be if you're a republican living in a blue state or democrat living in red state, why do you bother to vote, you know what's going to happen?
2:37 am
>> i think the democrats willingness to change the rules when the rules no longer benefit them. rob: right. >> good example of this other than the popular vote is that the democratic socialists of america are talking about abolishing the senate. i think it just so happens that the senate happens to be under gop control pushing through all the judicial nominations and in doing so they are undermining our republican system of government. this is exactly what the founders feared and my colleague colin reed pointed out in column in foxnews.com, the bills that are to embrace democracy, it's not like nebraska and maine are doing it proportionately by congressional districts. they are trying to build the blue wall that was tored down in 2016. rob: political reason behind everything that happens in washington. guys, thank you for your time, we appreciate it. >> thanks for having us. rob: congresswoman omar, talked about her lately, slammed by
2:38 am
2:41 am
rob: congresswoman omar known for comments of israel is now being called by her own party. jillian: carley shimkus fox news 24/7, siriusxm 115 with what everyone is saying. carley: after she apologized for making antisemitic comments she's once again being accused of making an antisemitic comment, let's see if we can get this right here. this time it happened during an event in washington, d.c., omar
2:42 am
suggested that proisraeli lobbyist groups are pushing politicians to pledge allegiance to israel. many says this promotes stereotype of loyalty that jewish americans are more loyal to israel than to america. democratic congresswoman from new york nida she's upset over this, lawmakers must be able to debate without prejudice and bigotry, i'm saddened that congresswoman mischaracterizes support for israel. well, congresswoman omar responded in series of tweets, i am told every day that i'm antiamerican if i'm not proisrael, i find that to be problematic and i'm not alone, i happen to be willing to speak up on it and open myself to attacks. well, social media now weighing
2:43 am
in on this latest controversy, one person tweeting this at congresswoman loey saying, thank you for being one of the few democrats to stand up for what is right and david on social media chiming in, waste of time, twice admonished by fellow democrats which tells me she doesn't care what they think, she now has a national stage to spread anger, disguise, a lot of backlash on this one. rob: this one was one of my favorites on the weekend, aoc wants us to go emission free in 10 years and i need to preface this, we live in the a, few city where is you don't need a car and the subway is better and a car is a burden here and yet she still uses a car. >> yeah, that's exactly -- according to new york post, since declaring her candidacy she's taken over 1,000 car service rides and spent over
2:44 am
$29,000 on those rides even though, rob, like you say, her queens headquarters was about a minute from the subway, so this bombshell report came out and she responded to it on twitter saying, i also fly and use air-conditioning, living in the world as it is isn't an argument against working towards a better future, the green new deal is about putting a lot of people to work and developing new technologies, building new infrastructure and getting up to 100% renewable energy. is this going to fly on social media? well, not really, liberty on twitter says, when someone tries to tell others how to live, they should set an example and then another twitter user chiming in saying, hypocrite to the core, so she is facing major backlash and also seeing leaving parade yesterday and she got into a mini van. rob: that's right. jillian: are people throwing
2:45 am
cheese at their kids' faces, what the heck is this? carley: yeah, this is the latest challenge to go viral on social media, parents everywhere throwing cheese at their babies faces to see if it will stick. the story hitting close to home because our own peeing -- pete hegseth took part of challenge. got it on the top of her head, social media loving and also very confused by this challenge. jillian: we could have tried it on rob today. rob: throw cheese at me any time you want. jillian: appreciate it. thanks a lot. rob: the president vowing to fight for free speech on college campuses and giving our next guest shout-out on cpac. candice owens. jillian: first let's check in with steve doocy.
