[laughter]

jedediah: that's my style. the colors of the team. that's how i big my teams. ed: great to be with you. steve: ed, jed, and steve. illegal immigrant killed a deputy in washington state. jedediah: officials say the mexican man shot dead by police overstayed his work vizquel. ed: griff jenkins joins us live from washington. griff: good morning, guys. deputy sheriff brian thompson is the first officer killed in the line of duty this year from the state of washington. shot and killed while attempting to stop a man evading a traffic stop. ice now confirming that man was here illegally issuing this statement. juan manuel, a citizen of mexico was unlawfully present in the united states. he entered the u.s. on april 11th, 2014, through laredo point of entry on

temporary worker i have. ice has no record of him leaving the u.s. nor extending his visa after it expired. another officer in that incident bone nit toe chavez was injured in the leg. acting ice director john torrez said this shouldn't have happened. >> any time a law enforcement officer is killed in the line of duty is this a tragedy. even more sendsless when done by someone who shouldn't be here in the united states. >> this comes as ronald vitiello visited. cdp have no more space to hold them in the sector. in the rbg, the sources tell me they have apprehended more than 1,000 illegal crossers every day this week since last saturday. think about those numbers for a second. this is essentially a caravan every day this week and they don't know where to put them. steve: exactly. griff, thank you very much. jedediah: thanks, griff.

steve: keep in mind some people on the political left who say look, no crisis. last month in february, the coldest month of the year, which is historically the least traveled across our southern border. 76,000 people were detained getting into the country. that's enough to fill up metlife stadium. ed: each "the washington post" and "washington times" were admitting in the last couple days this was 11-year high in terms of the crossings. the key that you mentioned a moment ago democrats keep calling it a manufactured crisis. steve: oh, so it's a crisis now? ed: maybe they have to eventually dropped the manufactured part and admittedly say it's a crisis. steve: they thought it was a stunt with the caravan. jedediah: key here we have families coming out sons, daughters, relatives who have died at the membersy of these people who they are saying shouldn't have been here to begin with we had a woman on this week whose son was decapitated by illegal immigrant. when you have these stories come to the forefront makes statistics much more real. that woman said i want these people deported they are not

supposed to be here and not properly vetted. as a result these tragedies are happening. ed: a.p. said border patrol is overwhelmed something the president has been saying months and months and months and now reached the mainstream media. many of the leading democratic contenders are simply not listening. they are still saying a, it's not a crisis and b,we don't need a wall. watch. >> we do not need any walls, $30,000,000,000.2000 miles long. 30 feet high. it will not be built on the international boundary line which is the center line of the rio grande river. that wall will be built well into the interior of someone's ranch, someone else's farm. someone else's home. you and i will be forced to take their property to solve a problem that we do not have. steve: you know, he very clearly at the beginning of that sound bite we do not need a wall. it wasn't until donald trump came along that anybody ever said you know walls don't

work. of course that's what they say now. and they are very expensive. no problem here beto o'rourke who just lives a couple of miles from the border with mexico in el paso said. meanwhile, they's talk more about 2020 politics. and it has been very clear that our situation, our relationship with israel has become politicized and, of course, apec is that annual convention they have very supportive of israel clearly. mousavi on.org came out with series of tweets asking candidates to skip aipac because it's not in their. jedediah: some have decided they want to align themselves with move on.org. you have buttigieg, former stan antonio mayor. julian castro, gillibrand, kamala harris. inslee, beto o'rourke, bernie sanders and elizabeth warren. remind these people what works in a primary doesn't

always work in a general elections. you will be held to account for this. we have a long-standing relationship being an ally with israel. move on.org is a highly progressive organization. i would be very careful about this move. ed: meanwhile, aipac is this important group liaisons with israel and the united states. it's been largely bipartisan or nonpartisan. steve: until. ed: until the years of donald trump being in office. all of a sudden the democrats are trying to please move on as you say. it's not a mainstream media organization. it's a far left organization. other thing is think about where we are contexturally a couple weeks after ilhan omar this democratic congressman had this whole issue nancy pelosi had to deal with anti-semitic remarks. democrats claimed with that resolution watered down they were trying to turn the page and have new realities relations between u.s. and israel and not have this episode continue. what do they do next? whole bunch of 2020

contenders avoid aipac. steve: move on.org said don't go so a bunch of them aren't. john hickenlooper is the great governor of the state of colorado. ed: former. steve: he was on cnn's town hall a couple of nights ago he has said something that's gotten a lot of attention from the mainstream media. watch this. >> >> i just heard a statistic recently that about 80% of american kids consider themselves as just plain old americans before they enter high school and about two thirds of them about halfway through college become hyphenated american. steve: that was the wrong sound bite. that is not the former governor. that was sean mcfarland at the american enterprise institute talking about his experiences training young men and women. who is mr. hickenlooper.

let's try it again. here is the sound bite that's gotten a lot of attention. governor, some of your male competitors have vowed to put a woman on the ticket, "yes" or "no," would you do the same. >> again, of course. how come we are not asking more often the women would you be willing to put a man on the ticket? ed: i think his real point was why do we continue to assume that a man will be at the top of the ticket and a woman has to be asked and you are going to pander rather than picking the best person man or woman? why not think about maybe a woman will actually win the democratic nomination again and that it will be a man that will be number two. instead, just the opposite is happening. many on the left, many in the mainstream media are going after hickenlooper like he is the bad guy. watch. >> john hickenlooper's answer about the possibility of a female running mate sparking backlash. >> i don't know what the heck he was talking about.

there are a lot of democrats feel women haven't been given just due. when hickenlooper says things like that he is basically dismissing those concerns. [laughter] >> craig, i don't even know how to reply to that 45 presidents have been men. i mean i think that speaks for itself. >> it's just one of those answers that you really groan at. i certainly did when i saw it i think i'm going to send governor hickenlooper a copy of those place mats with all the president's faces on them that are all men. jedediah: as a woman. i didn't groan at it great answer. don't pick me because i'm a female. pick me because i'm the best person for the job. pick me because i'm going to pick a woman vp. that does not necessarily make you qualified nor does it make the woman the best person for the job just because she is a female. for women out there, a lot of women in the voting base a lot of this insults us. just a heads up. steve: most extraordinary

thing he revealed this week he told an audience that apparently when he was in college he took his mother to a porno movie didn't realize what it was she didn't want to get up and lee. at the end she said something like there is pretty good lighting. [laughter] ed: what? he should be facing more backlash for that than not saying maybe a woman will be president and man will be number two. jillian, what do you have to say? jillian: some things should be kept to yourself. good morning. get you caught up on breaking news we are following. overnight, two american service members are killed during an operation in afghanistan. their identities have not been revealed and it's unclear how they died. they are the third and fourth american service members killed this year. right now there are around 14,000 u.s. troops supporting afghan soldiers in their fight against the taliban. also breaking right now, a multi-billion-dollar order for boeing 737 max jets is

participate, too. ed: doug, people just spit out their coffee all across the country laying out hollywood scenario. look at the map. what you are saying is making a very serious point. that half of america lives in just 146 of the biggest counties out of 3,000 counties all across america. so weave this together in terms of what the founding fathers wanted in terms of balance across the country? >> they wanted representation. it's a republic. they didn't want the minority view to be squashed. socialism is defined by isaiah berlin and others the reason it squashes free speech is because ultimately the speech of the community is who are important than the speech of the individual and our constitution is our law. george washington said that the constitution was a guide that he would never abandon. beto o'rourke says it's outdated.

jedediah: doug, real quickly, what are the odds it could happen? >> it's not going to happen. this is back to 2016. first it was comey's fault. then it was the russians fault. now it's thomas jefferson's fault. it's the u.s. constitution is the problem. ed: the founding fathers had a bit of wisdom and sometimes people don't want to listen but it's there doug, we appreciate you. >> thanks ed and jedediah. jedediah: add social security among the things democrats want to hand out to illegals. will it work? we will debate it next. ed: what happens when ron burgundy shows up to call an nhl hockey game? >> you don't mind if i bite into this burrito. shot a goal. he scores. put that baby to bed without a diaper. steven could only imaginem 24hr to trenjoying a spicy taco.burn,

after claiming illegal imgantz should having seas immigrants should have access to social security. >> you must have the right to pay into social security. steve: okay. the right to pay into social security. now she is clarifying those remarks at her rally last night in vegas. >> you let the 10, 11 million people who are here now working now begin to buy into social security. pay into social security, pay into taxes, pay their fair share and over a 10-year period they will earn their way into citizenship. steve: all right. so, here with the debate on whether or not illegals should get into the social security program, we have got immigration attorney francisco hernandez who joins us from dallas and senior policy director with the conservative partnership institute rachel bowvard:

kirsten gillibrand has made the suggestion when she was a senator she has not proposed this in the senate but now that she is running for president she thinks this is a great idea and i bet you do, too. >> well, if you really look at the age of our population, the number of people that are going to be drawing social security in the very near future is going to drive social security broke unless we get some new contributors. it makes sense if they are going to pay into it. sure, it's the same contract that anybody that was born here has. we need people to start contributing to social security. mind you, there is still about 700 billion suspense fund within the social security system that we can't touch because it's been -- it's contributions from undocumented immigrants over the decades and decades and decades and that money is just sitting there and we can't touch it because we don't know who it belongs to. we ought to at least give them a chance to start paying into for retirement.

steve: he says the social security system is broken and if we had all these new people paying in maybe it would survive. >> what's interesting is that some illegal immigrants do pay into social security. the irs allows this. they don't tell ice about it and the system is still going broke. the trustees tell us social security will be bankrupt by 2034. ultimately the issue here is that we're talking about illegal immigrants paying into social security. we're not dealing with the crisis at the border. and the issue there is unless we get it under control, we have to stop incentivizing people to come here or we are never going to fix this. steve: kirsten gillibrand made it clear this is essentially the pathway to citizenship. this is something that has needed to be addressed by our congress for decades and, yet, and here's a member of congress who is saying, look, you make me president and i'm going to do my best to do. this she hasn't done anything regarding this as a sitting senator from new york state. >> oh, sure. listen. congress has been chickening

out for 19 years now. steve: yeah. >> not dressing the issue because it's a juicy political issue. we need a scapegoat to promote our politics. we have had democrat congress. we had republican congress in charge for six years. that could have passed any laws. no matter what. and they are not going to. so that is true. paying into social security doesn't get you citizenship or legal residency at all. as i said about is about 700 billion-dollar suspension fund where the irs and social security system has been receiving these payments. and we can't even touch it because we don't know who it belongs. to say. steve: rachel, i will give you the final word. >> i think dealing with this issue is the equivalent of -- rome burn the more we incentivize people come here, crisis at the border. sexual assault at the border. more drugs coming across the border. we will never fix the problem if we don't invent advise people. we need to fix the border first. >> we could fix it by not

hiring people. >> we can fix it by building a wall at the border or by starting to crack down on actual illegal crossers. we saw 76,000, the highest since 2008, this is an issue. >> stop hiring. steve: if you turn off the job magnet people will stop coming. >> yes. steve: great conversation this morning. rachel and francisco, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> thank you. steve: coming up on this friday a u.s. figure skater accused of using skate blade to attack a rival. building homes for heroes has been changes lives for decades. this morning they do it once more. a purple heart recipient and his wife are here to share their incredible story. good morning. you are coming up right here on "fox & friends" ♪ coming home ♪ ♪ us as people. they see us as profits.

example? it would be so easy we don't want to ensure this person. ed: nascar driver. jedediah: so public. easy mechanism to target someone. you look at social media account reckless behavior i'm going to bump up numbers for them. >> if i'm an insurance company and going tore expensive policy super high payout on it i'm going to look a lot more closely in the greatest of details. that's where i imagine those will ramp up. ed: cookbook or something like that. >> cookbook authors high risk. there you go. steve: coming up, this is a gigantic story. isis nearly completely gone in syria. so why is it getting so little media attention? we will talk to army vet pete hegseth coming up in the next hour. ed: our buddy is coming up. says he was left out of national honor society over his support, yes, of the president. he just got the last laugh. right to the white house. what was it like?

steve: we told you about this story. that high school student from new jersey says he was rejected from the national honor society because of that t-shirt where he seems to support president trump. >> i had the grade requirement. community service requirement. >> you checked all the box. >> i checked all the boxes when i posted the trump quote al all of a sudden i had a character issue. jedediah: he got a very

special invitation from the white house where he had the opportunity to attend president trump's executive order signing protecting free speech on college campuses that student joins us now. thanks for being here. >> thanks for having me. >> what was it like to go to the white house? >> it was something really special. you think of the white house as something really cool. but when you go inside it was a whole other world. jedediah: was it important for you to be here to protect free speech on campuses given what you just went through. >> i think so. so, the president just mandated free speech on college campuses. i think that's a good start. i think the next step moving forward we need to extend it to high schools and middle schools, right? the idea is to stop leftist indoctrination that starts in high school and middle school. steve: you certainly meet the requirements to be in the national honor society. community service, the good gravmentdz you got a 4.0. congratulations. >> thank you. steve: yet, it was a little group of teachers and educators at your school who

said you had a character issue because you support the president. you had that t-shirt. you posted some things for the president. how dare you? you know, they are going how could he possibly do that and so they said you don't get to be in the national honor society. >> well, this happenings all the time in schools. and after i was on for fox the first time all the students reached out to me telling me similar stories. my teacher gave me a bad grade for supporting trump. same thing for writing things that are conservative. teachers need to realize that they are public servants. they work for the students and the community. and our taxes are the ones weighing their salaries yet they act like they can hold our grades over our heads because we write something in support of the president. jedediah: you came on here in february and alluded to this a couple of seconds ago when you went back to school after that and some students wrote you. was there any backlash from the administration or feel any pressure as a result of coming on here and telling this story about the bias

going on. >> that's always something you have to consider. jedediah: very brave of you. >> thank you. but but, at the end of the day, this sour fight. and, you know, this sour generation. we are the ones that need to fight socialism and free speech can't vote writing our papers and speaking in the classroom is the only way to do that. >> because you went to the white house during a school day you had to get perms from the school and they denied you, right? >> to go to the white house. the choir class at the end of the year get to go to six flags but the trump administration is not an excused absence. jedediah: real quick 2020 going to vote who are you voting for? >> trump. steve: hang on a second, jedediah, in 2040 he says he is running for president. >> we have to keep the legacy going. jedediah: not messing around. steve: thanks for stopping by. what has robert mueller found? apparently james comey doesn't really care. do you believe that? stick around we will tell you about it. jedediah: beto o'rourke just had first run-in with the

unfit for office it was time for him to goened he a wanted a special counsel. now james comey is flip flopping. let's take a look at what he said then and we will tell you how he has changed. >> i woke up in the middle of the night on monday night because it didn't dawn on me originally that there might be corroboration for our conversation. there might be a tape. my judgment was i needed to get that out into the public square. i asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memo with a reporter. didn't do it myself for a variety of reasons but i asked him to because i thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel. steve: look what happened? jedediah: guess what? maybe there has been a little change from james comey. in a "new york times" op-ed he now writes even though i believe mr. trump is unfit to be president of the united states. i'm not write for mr. mueller to demonstrate is he a criminal. i'm also not rooting for mr. mueller to clear the president. i'm not rooting for anything at all exception that the special counsel be permitted to finish his work.

i have no idea whether the special counsel will conclude that mr. trump knowingly conspired with the russians in connection with the 2016 election or that he obstructed justice with the required corrupt intent. i also don't care. ed: he doesn't care after two years? really? jedediah: come on. if you believe that i have a bridge to sell you. that is ridiculous. steve: why would that be? maybe fast forward to today how many indictments have there been or people convicted regarding the trump-russia collusion thing. yeah, there haven't. and what about the obstruction of justice thing? ed: see what mueller has. steve: we would have known by now. come on it's washington, d.c. ed: here's the thing. chris hayes on msnbc a couple nights ago said can we trust the mueller report if it doesn't find collusion? wait a second, you have been among the people pumping up the mueller report he might have the goods. we heard adam schiff say two years ago there was

evidence. that's what schiff said there was evidence of collusion. two years later we are still waiting. maybe that's why some in the media are flip flopping because it's not fitting their narrative. jedediah: they did the same thing with james comey. first they hated james comey because how he handled hillary clinton and then they loved james comey because he doesn't like trump. they will love and hate mueller based on how much information he has that's negative on president trump. steve: only stuff we have heard about and i know the republicans make this their talking point only collusion we have seen with between the department of justice and the fbi and the democrats. keep in mind. all of this seemed to have started with this dossier that was essentially an oppo research paper funded by the democrats after the republicans originally started dirt on donald trump. and then just the fact that it was shopped around by a bunch of people in washington. will you please just look at this? and eventually it landed at the fbi and department of justice got involved. keep in mind. ladies and gentlemen, ilisa pagd

doors said they could not prove there was collusion before the mueller appointment. when mueller is talking about how he gave his notes to his college friend, so they would start a special counsel it wasn't for collusion because they had no evidence. it was for obstruction. fast forward now, there's no evidence we have seen of either. jedediah: now, of course, democrats when they talk about collusion the next word that comes out of their mouth is impeachment. we have interesting poll numbers from cnn on support for trump's impeachment. in december of 2018, it was at 43%. march of 2019 it had dropped to 36%. steve: seven points. ed: look among democrats. jedediah: december 2018. 80%. march 2019. 68%. each among democrats this has dropped. now, i think it's because people are looking and saying, look, a lot of same people say i originally supported. this i wanted you to look into this. sure, if there is collusion with russia it's legitimate.

now many have signed on and said you know what? it does look like a witch-hunt. ed: which is why the democrats should have signed on to it maybe the president shouldn't have been calling it a witch-hunt. if the mueller report ends up not finding corruption or collusion he might end up saying hey, mueller did a good job. steve: people are hopeful at the end of the process we hear from the inspector general and department of justice whether or not any corners were cut. whether or not there were any influences politically. we know that mueller fired strzok and page essentially from the investigation because of perceived bias. ed: the text messages that showed they didn't like the president and they are the folks who were investigating him. interesting because you have got this whole pack of democrats. it's a list of baker's dozen or so still growing in there trying to get the president's job. one of those folks is john hickenlooper the former democratic governor of colorado. he said something that almost sounds like common sense at the cnn town hall a

couple nights ago and yet, there has been a freak-out on the left. listen. >> governor, some of your male competitors have vowed to put a woman on the ticket. "yes" or "no," would you do the same? >> again, of course. but how come we are not asking more often the women would you be willing to put a man on the ticket? steve: he said afterwards he was trying to make the point that, too off, media discounts of a chance of a woman winning by asking such questions of men. they never ask that question or at least maybe i missed it but women i know feel that is a form of discounting that they are less likely to win the nomination. that is what i'm talking about he went on to explain. jedediah: he was actually he elevating women in his comment. they might have to be on the top of the ticket and figure out if they want me on there. it is crazy. we have a montage of media attacking him. take a listen. >> john hickenlooper's answer about the possibility of a female running mate sparking backlash.

>> i don't know what the heck he was talking about. there are a lot of democrats who feel that women haven't been given their just due. so when hickenlooper says things like that, is he basically dismissing those concerns. [laughter] >> craig, i don't even know how to reply to that 45 president have been men. i think it speaks for itself. >> it's one of those answers that you really groan at. i certainly did when i saw it i think i'm going to send governor hickenlooper a copy of those place mats with all the presidents' faces on them that are all men. >> they are missing the point. you had cory booker about a week ago and say i'm going to pick a woman. all these women are running and one of them is going to be my vice president. that to me is worse because he is assuming a man is going to win the top spot. steve: axios had a story yesterday that apparently joe biden's counsel of advisors are considering stacey abrams who had run for governor down in the great state of georgia.

that they would essentially preannounce before the convention, months before, which is the standard that she would be the ticket. ed: it would add a woman and someone younger and she is black. they are saying this would really balance things for biden. jedediah: don't pick me because i'm a female. that's the most condescending thing can you do. pick me because i'm the best woman for the job. are you going to pick a woman just because she is a woman? no. there are plenty of capable women out there that can do this job in a brilliant way. don't assume just because it's a woman they are the best person for the job. steve: one of the women running for president is elizabeth warren. you know, famously, elizabeth warren has taken some flack for her roll-out announcing her d.n.a. results and whatnot. last night, on the daily show, trevor noah actually took a shot at elizabeth warren and we wanted to play it for you this bite on this

friday morning. >> i have my eye on you, elizabeth warren. i feel like as soon as reparations are passed she will be like there is something i didn't tell you about my ancestry results. i'm also 1/20th black. who knew? apple pay. ed: havhe ed: when you have lost trevor noah. she played his game came out a loser there. and now even the left is turning on her. jedediah: come on, ed. 1/1,024th ounce. even comedians are sitting back. even fans of elizabeth warren some of my friends in new york city i have plenty of liberal friends come on this is not a win for you. just back away. not a good look. ed: she likes beer. steve: she couldn't get her husband to have a beer with her in the kitchen. what do you think about that? email you was at friends@foxnews.com. we're also on facebook. jillian joins us now and she has a fox news alert.

he is doing. these kids now babies when i first knew now in their 20s. got to be horrified. steve: look he served his time. the judicial system put him away for 17 years and he did his time so now he can do whatever he wants. >> yeah. so, let's take the case of some of the gitmo detainees, a guhe served his time and went through dereaction program. they released him from that program and within days he goes to yemen and joins the fight with al qaeda there. we know his case is not an odd or an outlier for example by the way. we know about 30% of gitmo detainees go on to join the fight once more. that's already bad. the more horrifying point is that the utes government, we don't know well which one of these detainees whether it's walker lyndh or otherwise will be the 30% that goes

back in the fight or 70% that stays straight as it were. that's the really terrifying point. on top of that walker linged isn't alone. we have 75 more of these folks coming back online and coming back into our cities by new york and tucson by 2025. this is justth beginning. walker lyndh is the tip of the iceberg. steve: because they are coming back into society. we have a map of states in which lawmakers are calling for, perhaps, a terror registry they include new york, texas, florida, missouri and louisiana and when you think about it, briabrinebryan you can go onlind find out where a sex offender lives in your zip code why can't did you go online and see where a terrorist lives? >> we know that sex offenders once they are rereleased back into our communities, not only do we follow them but we do that

pennies and sometimes nothing. competition is good. how do you make sure start-up can compete with big players. that should be the focus. consumers love these services and make sure it's competitive markets. that's not necessarily jumping immediately to a break-up scenario. jedediah: when you founded aol, i'm just curious. did you see it playing out this way? >> yes and no. when we started it back in 1985 only 3% of people were online. those 3% were online just an hour of week. still pretty. steve: it was dial up. >> it was expensive. goes back to the competition. it was expensive. steve: tie up phone line. >> $10 an hour to be online. of course you won't be online. now it's so ubiquitous and can't live without the internet. great toe so it. some issues now so pervasive with platforms like facebook and others. how you make sure all voices are heard. make sure there is quality control out there. gone from niche thing that nobody cared about to being such an essential part of

for allah. that was their life's ambition ultimately are surrendering and now in refugee camps. whole other issue what you do with these guys. a testament to this president unleashing our military to crush identifies. steve: when he was running for president he said look, i'm going to make it a priority. isis got started on barack obama's watch. and. ed: they were the jv team. steve: junior varsity city team. he said he would do it. and people go yeah, sure. we have been trying and it's not working. what did he do specifically with his military commanders to get us to the point today where they are pretty much extinct. pete: loosen rules of engagement. push our advisors closer to the front lines. so they are not pulling triggers necessarily but they are right there with the guys that are. which has an emboldening effect. steve: they are able to use our technology. pete: they can use our technology and air support and ar artillery and weapons. our guys are right there with them as they move to the front line very different than being an

advisor in the rear with the gear in the headquarters. calling shots. but also if you are picking targets and saying you can't shoot there. you can't shoot there. then you are handcuffing yourself. steve: why are we the only people talking about this. >> it's unfortunate narrative for the people on the left who hate this president. i really, really unfortunately believe that to be the case. it's sort of yesterday's news in think mind, isis, the caliphate was not going to work anyway. somewhere had to go there and murder them to prove that the caliphate didn't work. they killed 800 million people at their height. expoor station to europe at the wanted to bring to to the united states. ed: they were beheading americans. >> absolutely gone because of the united states of america. it reminds you how indispensible america is in the world. if we get our military and seize to lead no, one else is going to go crush isis there isn't another freedom military in the world it's us or nobody. jedediah: before you used

the expression pulling triggers. i'm triggered about another story. i'm triggered about move on.org who is encouraging 2020 presidential candidates on the left to skip pro-israel aipac conference. you already have a punch of prominent candidates yeah we are going to skip it elizabeth warren, bearngdz, beto o'rourke, jay inslee, kamala harris, christian, kirstn gillibrand. the list goes on. i'm sitting here saying is this a mistake? what works in a primary election? move on.org is a far left progressive organization. you are going to cater to them? how is this going to work in a general? lots of folks democrats included want israel to be. pete: you described move on.org the far left group it is now the democrat party. they are the soul of the democrat party. just like the justice democrats. just like cair and all these radical groups that have captured the democratic party. that's who they are kowtowing too. and maybe they think testimony works in a general. i think you are trite doesn't work in a general

election. aipac is not an extreme right wing pro-israel group they play it down the middle bipartisan consensus of partisans and democrats. if you won't go to aipac you are somehow anti-israel or anti-semitic. we have seen the comments. i'm north saying they are. you are not willing to stand shoulder to shoulder with our most -- with our strongest ally. all of them boycotting it shows you how afraid they are of the fringe left base of the camp. they are afraid of them. how dare you stand with a group that you saw the president recognize the glitsd or hgolan heights or dide during twitter. you can't do that what about the 1967 lines and two-state solution? because there is a pro-palestinian base of the democratic party. they don't want to offend. >> that's what this is all about. ed: we talk about identity politics on the weekends a lot. retired general sean mcfarland had this to say about the impact it's having on the military. really chilling. watch.

>> i just heard a statistic recently that about 80% of american kids consider themselves as just plain old americans before they enter high school and about two thirds of them about halfway through college become hyphenated american. we remove those hyphens in the army, in the military. you know, you are a soldier, next question. we all wear of the same pack on our right shoulder. the american flag. that's what it is all about. is it getting harder in the u.s. military to assimilate everybody and get everybody on the same plane for the same team? it is. identity politics is a cancer. and army is a reflection of its society. it's a dangerous path that removing along and eventually it's going to become too hard for us to fix. steve: of course, he is talking about his point of

view as somebody who led so many people in the army where you served proudly. pete: yeah. incredibly well said why by the general. what makes america special is a bunch of people different background and skin colors and orientation we are all in for the declaration and constitution to set a we can be free people for ourselves. that's the social contract for america. if you start to say no, i'm black, i'm white, i'm this, i'm that. i'm this agree advance. i'm that grievance. i'm this identity, that identity first. it all starts to break down. because you are not looking at the center of idea ofs that you share together. steve: america first. we all have our patch on our shoulder. >> this is where it comes from in universities and high schools telling folks to focus on background even things like 23 and me. then we look back i'm part of this subpar subgroup. that type of stuff sump what

we have been trying to move past for a long time. steve: shouldn't you be proud of your background. >> i'm 70% nor we john. you and i have from the same village, probably. we don't look at each other and say how is it going in the homeland? ultimately i'm a fifth generation american. i know my grand mother, i believe, spoke norwegian. i don't know a word of nor we john that's what i hope every group who comes here does. i'm proud of the folks who got me here. ultimately i'm proud of this flag and country. that is what brings us together. jedediah: that's what i'm hoping for. particularly millennials coming out of college campuses this message is apeeling to them. my hope it's not resonating as well. pete: military is the ultimate melting pot. if generals are saying it's not working there, what other institution could heal this cancer? he is right it is a cancer. ed: your jump shot around march madness wasn't too good. >> i don't have video of it.

jedediah: could have come prepared. ed: we have the harlem globe trotters on the show. wait, you have video. pete pete last year my 3 is far off. ed nailed the three. jedediah: that's why you brought video. pete pee rematch. steve: you played division one basketball? ed: i don't want to trigger you. we will have fun. ed: will you with be us. jedediah: not this weekend. i will be soon. steve: i will be watching. i went to kansas, just saying. meanwhile, he said he killed four people for drug money, what's even worse he should not have been in this country. sick admission from illegal immigrant coming up shortly. jedediah: getting real about rural america. the "new york times" says don't even bother with those flyover states. why hasn't the left learned their lesson from the 2016 election ♪ bad company ♪ until the day i die

much the only place where donald trump remains popular, he writes, despite the damage his trade wars have done to the farm economy. here to react author of alienated america why some places thrive while others clasp. tim carney. >> good to see you, ed. ed: seems like folks on the left paul krugman write about rural america this distant planet that's not in america. >> he tries to hide it but is he showing liberal disdain. the bitter clingers as obama called them. deplorables as clinton called it the reason donald trump won because he was the person who didn't sort of hate rural america and who also articulated there is a real problem out there. the left spent years saying oh there is no actual suffering in middle america. the working class rural america is doing fine. if you are saying things are going bad it's just because you are upset that the world is progressing. krugman at least admits there is a problem out there

but he handily says there is no good way to fix it. it's a disdain a lot on the elites have in middle america. >> it's sort of shocking that it's sort of still there. maybe they haven't learned since 2016. look back at what krugman wrote on elections day a couple years ago. there turned out to be a huge number of people, white people he writes, living mainly in rural areas who don't stai share at all our idea of what america is about. for them it did about blood and soil. about traditional patriarchy and hierarchy. >> he sees people in the abstract. he doesn't see people as humans in a place and that talked about blood and soil. what he is objecting to is people who love the place that they are. and i think, again, what gave -- what the reason that trump won the primary is because when he said the american dream is dead. and this is what i write about in my book alienated america. when he said the dream is

dead. that resonated for people who has looked around at the place they love and said this used to be great. i want my place to be great again. and for a person like krugman who says you can just move out to another place, you can just change your suffering isn't real they don't see that as a legitimate desire my hometown i want it to be thriving and to have strong community institutions. ed: real quick, what does this mean for 2020? are democrats throwing up their hands and saying we can't get rural america? >> there is a lot of them are but iowa caucuses means a lot of them have to try. sherrod brown was the guy who had the most interesting stuff to say the senator from ohio. he dropped out. a lot of these people, i think you are going to see kamala harris and a lot of these people run against the deplorables. there is a couple guys maybe pete but the gay an but buttigi.

steve: geraldo image from couple days ago. 400 people were arrested trying to cross into the country in five minutes. >> the question is what do you do about it? i'm for, we argued or debated, you know, had loving conversations about it now for almost two decades. i'm for compassionate immigration reform. i don't know what to do about this. i don't know how you stem passionate wave of people, desperate people, some i guess are just, you know, pragmatic playing the odds, getting into the country by beating the system. but the vast majority of them are just people who want to work. i don't know how you do it. steve: have to change the law. >> yes you do but you also have to meantime, surge immigration judges. try to get some order in the asylum process where you don't have catch-and-release. this is an emergency, i think that people who deny that fact like beto o'rourke are really are wrong. jedediah: i want to ask you about that actually. he is out there he is

campaigning you know what? there is no need for a wall because we don't have a problem. we have sound of that. take a listen. >> we do not need any walls. $30 billion, 2,000 miles long, 30 feet high. it will not be built on the international boundary line which is center line of the rio grand river. that wall will be built well into the interior of someone's ranch, someone else's farm, someone else's home, you and i will be forced to take their property to solve a problem we do not have. jedediah: this is not effective strategy. he is ignoring reality there is problem. something needs to be done. >> i heard you, ed, you were substituting for martha, was it, and you, you debated you said take the wall out of it. what would you do about it? i don't know. i don't know what to do about it. i am baffled by it. i certainly see this is an emergency. we can't empty out all of

central america into the southern part of the united states. compassion is one thing but a fool's errand is another. i believe that the wall in certain areas is a necessity just for control, to bring order to the border. stop the abuse of the migrants by human smugglers and others predatory population that lives there along the southern border but beyond that, i think that everyone has to get together, say okay, what are we going to do about it? you have to have as part of your solution to this problem some kind of economic component and a law and order component, i covered the south american countries for abc news. i was correspondent for many years, guatemala, nicaragua, honduras, et cetera. these are places do have a severe gang problem. they do have a severe economic hardship on the people. we've got to stablize central america. otherwise there is no way on earth, when you have the poorest people on earth next to the richest people on earth you will not have this migratory flow.

ed: jedediah was saying the point i was trying to make on martha's show, how does the president get any compromise with democrats when they won't admit a problem. it is not about the wall. not about the economic part. those are solutions you're trying to get to. democrats are saying it's a manufactured crisis. even "the washington post" publishing stats we haven't seen a flow across the border like this i believe in 11 years. >> when you have the discussion on the wall and you make the wall a moral issue, that's easy, that's for people without any emergency nation. wall, immoral, wall immoral. it is easy. that becomes your position. that is your default position, whether you're secretary of, speaker pelosi or minority leader schumer. wall immoral. and that, absolves you of any moral responsibility for fixing the problem. here is what you do. you keep showing those pictures. keep showing those pictures.

huckleberry finn from 1884. it is inappropriate since it uses racial slurs and depicting assist attitudes as well. ed: all right. new documentary warns seattle dying. it's a stark warning. they say liberal polls leaving the city, a haven for homelessness and drug use. >> prostitutes are working woods. drug ad didn'ts are working woods. our groundskeepers on monday morning find everything from a weekend of fun, needles on the ground, crystal meth on tombstones, other drugs. garbage. this shouldn't happen in civilized society. jedediah: our next guest became so frustrated with the city he decided to take matters into his own hands to run for city council. steve: board member of the cemetery, ari hoffman took part in the documentary. he joins us from seattle. good morning. >> good morning, happy purim to all your jewish viewers.

steve: thank you, sir. >> what happened to seattle? >> they failed our city and created a haven where it is okay for people to die on the streets with drug use and who live on the streets with mental illness. they're not offering treatment solutions and failing people in the city. steve: nobody wants that. why do you say they brought that on? >> what happened was through 2013 the homeless population was relatively stable. what happened after that, a group, 150% per year, because policies they had enabled drug use behavior. it enabled what you're seeing on streets of seattle. it is absolutely tragic that we have people who are living inside after cemetery dealing drugs outside of a cemetery. running prostitution in a cemetery. you see it on the streets all over seattle. it is tragic. ed: how could seattle and washington state more broadly home of massive successful companies like starbucks, amazon, microsoft, that all say

they have got a social conscience? what are they doing about it? >> so actually amazon opened some locations for mary's place. mary's place offers homeless for children and battered women and battered women's shelter things of that nature they offer them so people have place to go. amazon tries to give back as much as it can. microsoft are trying to build affordable housing in seattle. they announced they will do $500 million worth of that. millions of dollars, billion of dollars going to non-performing non-profits here in seattle helping homeless you wonder where all the money is going. jedediah: that is one of the issues. not that there is no money. there is misallocation of funds. you're running for city council. probably wasn't part of your plans originally. you see the issue. love sate tell. want to save it. what would you do to save seattle? >> first thing you need to do audit where all the money is going. there is plenty of money. city covers are full. the money is not being spent

appropriately. you need to make sure you're offering services. i saw a study, according to seattle's own numbers, 78% of people want to be off heroin. they don't want to have addiction problems anymore. they want treatment. unfortunately there are not enough services. not enough mental health options for them. in the seattle city charter responsibility as sanitariums is not done. western state hospital failed certification, lost its federal funding because it was so underperforming. we need to make sure services are available to people on the streets. at the same time word has gotten out across the country if you come to seattle, they give you needles, everything else you want. you can live here. nobody will enforce the law and do what it takes to get the treatment you need. steve: as we look at images of the cemetery, looks like a junkyard. jedediah: very sad. steve: so much stuff there. what happens on days when there is a burial? you know how do you get around

next question. you got, we all wear the same patch on our right shoulder, the american flag. is it getting harder in the u.s. military to a simulate everybody, get everybody on the same, playing for the same team? it is. identity politics is a cancer. ed: how do you react to that? >> well i would agree with it. you know, luckily in the seal teams, for instance, i don't think i saw that as much. i think there is very close-knit community there, no matter what the ethnicity or background, certainly a problem in america at large. what is identity politics. it is temptation to divide us up into different groups, whether that be based on race or gender or some other category. put those groups against each other. and compete for power accordingly. ways america should be is that the only colors that matter are red, white, blue. we compete according to the

competency. compete according to meritocracy. that is fundamental element ever the military. if you take it away from the military. the general is absolutely right. the military eventually fail. our country at large will fail. he is absolutely right about identity politics. steve: congressman, how did we get to this point? >> how did we get to this point? jeez, postmodern mentality where on college campuses now especially there is real temptation to tear down everything that our country was built on. to. tear down these enlightenment ideals of equality. they have different ideas of equality means. they think equality means egal tehran, that everybody should have the exact same thing. there are injusts all around them. the reality is compete in free society as free individuals. part of that competition is a meritocracy. ha is what the country is founded on. i think people are forgetting

that. jedediah: representative crenshaw you are fighting for a fellow navy seal, eddie galler. a letter was written a chief gallagher is brave war fighter, is entitled to presumption of thans awaiting court-martial. review policies governing pretrial con findment for chief gallagher. >> people are innocent until proven guilty. they should be treated as such. the issues around the gallagher case, one thing the way he was arrested was problematic. he was arrested undergoing medical treatment. they also raided his home. they raided his home. they took him outside. put him in solitary confinement. he hasn't had full access to food he wants. medical treatment he wants.

full access to the legal council and family. being put in solitary confinement with guilty criminals . been in solitary confinement for self months. that is not the way we treat people. >> he is being held in miramar in california. fell us about the government case against him. what did he do? >> they're alleging during deployment in iraq, he murdered an isis fighter who was in their custody. now there is various disputes between various witnesses who were there. again, i don't know. that is not what we're adjudicating here. we'll leave that up to the jury

to decide that. what we do know is that his treatment from the time he was accused up until the actual court-martial, should be a lot better than it is right now. ed: this is enemy combatant, the isis fighter? >> it was enemy combatant. close air support. enemy combatant was terribly wounded. they took the enemy combatant in. gave him medical attention. that is the point where some people are accusing him of killing the enemy combatant. ed: the navy told foxnews.com, they have not reviewed the letter from your colleagues. we appreciate you coming in. >> thanks for having me. steve: 22 minutes before the top. hour. jillian joins us. jillian, some people are talking about tonya harding regarding this case. jillian: 2.0 perhaps. we'll see about that. here is the story. american figure skater is

sexist. i think he was being opposite. jedediah: they're like the gift keeps on given the media. he was trying to say a woman could be at top of the ticket, you might wind her, hey, will you pick a guy? perhaps this is me saying this, don't necessarily pick a woman because it is female. we're supposed to look for best people of the job, people. i think it is hysterical, when it comes to someone not of, that is of their political ideology, most of the media. they look at this, got to criticize it. run to the ism is. got to be sexism. ed: mark steyn said stay woke. >> no matter how woke you are you could be out-woke by the next guy in the democratting process. hickenlooper doesn't get it. he made the same mistake, i think martin o'malley saying all lives matter whatever it was four years ago instead of black lives matter. he said all lives matter. hickenlooper has got it wrong
