[cheers and applause] brian: the good news is, you guys are going to meet them all. they will all be on our set, on our couch. steve talk about nut break. ainsley: eric and lara just announced they are having a baby. you will get to see her. brian: that was going to be a surprise until just now. [laughter] ainsley: no it wasn't. steve: we have a busy three hours starts right now with this story. you know that there are democrats in washington,

d.c. -- i said washington doocy. ainsley: there is another doocy in tv. steve: there are democrats in d.c. who are saying the attorney general of the united states, bill barr, we need to see this mueller report and we need to see it thousand and unredacted. he is trying to protect the president. the deputy assistant attorney general, rod rosenstein is still at the job. remember, he oversaw the mueller report. he talked to the "wall street journal" yesterday from his fourth floor office at the department of justice and essentially he said we should all have confidence in what mr. barr tells us. ainsley: he said this to the "wall street journal" reporter that he is being as forthcoming, talking about william barr as he can. this notion that he is trying to mislead people, i think, is just completely bizarre. brian: one thing i thought barr did was brilliant was to leave rod rosenstein in place. he stays in place because he has been there through the all the controversy 25th

amendment in action. what did he do? what did he say to spur the mueller probe in particular? rod rosenstein is looking over barr's shoulder as they come up with that four-page synopsis, bottom line conclusion of the 400 pages. he backs up what barr was just saying over the last two days on capitol hill. the word came up along the way and it's one word, three letters and barr used it. it was called spy. i'm going to look in the spying on the trump campaign. that drove everybody, not on this couch, crazy. steve: because he said spy diagnose occur on the campaign. he said we don't know whether or not it was legitimate and whether or not it was authorized but he is going to look into that so, anyway. who was the fbi director at the time that spying did occur? brian: is this that quiz i was told about. steve: it's short. it was james comey, of course. he was out yesterday in a conference and he had heard

what mr. barr had said 48 hours earlier about spying and his sound bite is so unusual we wanted to play it for you today. listen. >> with respect to barr's comments i really don't know what he is talking about, when he talks about spying on the campaign. i hear that kind of language used, it's concerning because the fbi and the department of justice conduct court ordered electronic surveillance. i have never thought of that as spying. if the attorney general has come to the belief that that should be called spying, wow. that's going to require a whole lot of conversations inside the department of justice. but i don't know what he meant by that term u. ainsley: i wonder if it would be so concerning if he said that hillary clinton's people were being spied on? i mean, these democrats, all they want -- they wanted that report to come back and say that there wa was collusion. when it didn't say that no matter what they talk about, the summary, when they release the whole thing,

they are upset that it didn't say collusion. brian: word is if they use the word surveillance, the trump campaign was surveilled. would they have felt better about it it's the same bottom line. when the michael horowitz report comes out the inspector general what took place behind the scenes you upper echelons of the fbi and cia. maybe there is nothing, maybe there is more. ken starr knows all about special counsels. he listened to what barr said over the last two days and said this. >> he knows something. he said i have a concern and i believe i have a basis for that concern. anyone who knows bill barr knows he doesn't just say things. he thinks about them. is he careful about what he says and i think if bill barr says i think there's a basis for my concern, he doesn't say what it is. he says i'm not going to say what it is, that is a stay

tuned, america. steve: meanwhile stay tuned also rod rosenstein in that interview with the "wall street journal" did talk about the redaction team. you know, who is going through with the sharpy and the marks a lot to. brian: did you call it a marks a lot? steve: that is a brand name. brian: i call it image marker. to me it is magic. ainsley: he should know. this is what he has had in his hand every day for the last, what, 24 years? steve: you know why marks it a lot. call me sir mark as lot. of the redaction team is rod rosenstein. it is the attorney general. it's some of their aides. and it is one member of the mueller team. they are the people deciding what we are all going to see. nancy pelosi wants us to see it right now. wants it unredacted. it's interesting. two days ago she actually picked up the phone and called the president of the united states and said, hey, i think we need to start working together on infrastructure. he wants to spend

$200 billion. i want to spend at least 1 trillion. closer to $2 trillion. so let's get together. ainsley: that would be wonderful if they would work together. what do you think in the democrats don't vote for anything that the republicans like. brian: right. steve: it's politics. brian: here is what nancy pelosi said. here is why i also think she has to do something she had 100 days as speaker they have done nothing. here is what she said it's complicates but it isn't hard to do if you have good intentions meaning dealing with the president. i'm not giving up with the president on this dot dot dot dot. [laughter] it has to happen. it's inevitable. the president is a fear mongerrer. okay, this is the bad part. he fueled the flame of insecurity about globalization and immigration and all that in the campaign. if the economy is better for many of these people and i think that fear tactic would be diminished. steve: in other words i will work with that really bad guy. ainsley: exactly. brian: here is what is interesting. you want infrastructure, nancy pelosi, i need immigration. i got a problem at the border. you know it. you have got to do it. another thing the president

said according to axios democrats decide do you want to legislate or investigate? you can't have both. if you want to start investigating me you waited for the next president and i got news tore you it's probably going to be him. the other thing to keep in mind, too. [cheers and applause] the president has a few other things. he has that usmca he wants to get passed. there is not a lot of controversy in that. a rot of democrats like that. get that passed. the president can cut a deal. let's see him cut a deal. steve: president said on the phone i want to work with you. ainsley: she knows that america they are watching 103,000 migrants come n march alone. we have got a long way until the election. she knows there is a major problem. if they continue to deny this, they continue to say it's manufactured, they are going to lose. steve: well, she said i would like to work with you on immigration and infrastructure and prescription drugs, so, will they? stay tuned as they say. all right. meanwhile, that's the news

the controversy drawing a lot of controversy dark moment for journalists and others arguing he needs to face justice. brian: here to react we hope, at least we asked him to david webb on fox nation. do you have that app.? [cheers] brian: radio talk show host david webb. assange gets dragged out. what do you think should be next for him? >> in order to find out what he really did, whether it was manning, we were talking about that before we came on or anybody else, we need to find out what he did, what his actions were. did he work with them prior to -- we don't know until we actually have a full investigation and a trial. and the damage he has done not only to this country but to other countries, to our allies, it's significant. ainsley: if it's just him publishing the classified information, is the real law breaker chelsea manning? >> bradley manning. brian: who got pardoned. ainsley: pardoned? >> and then you have got snowden, two aspect of this and all the others in on this that we don't know

about. there is no way the three of them did all this damage. wikileaks is wider. we still don't know if assange worked with them in any way prior to the, quote, publishing. so i'm not going to call him a publisher or journalist as he now claims he is until we know. that requires a real investigation. steve: because if you just are talking about the publishing, then it brings into the whole freedom of information, first amendment stuff. >> also you see the classified information. look, we are responsible here at fox. if somebody walks up to you and says i have got this for you. i know it's a secret you are not supposed to have it. you have a decision to make at that point. brian: you are a military guy. you know what it was like when you hurricaned that video with supposedly us taking out civilians. world war ii of us just bombing berlin, why were we doing that? stuff that led up to that that vilified our military that put us in additional danger. he had no problem doing it if they have interaction between bradley manning when he was a man and with julian

assange. ainsley: now chelsea. brian: he was telling them how to break. in. >> bottom line manning is a traitor, snowden is a traitor and assange an enabler. brian: other thing is we are finding out to what he was doing. did you hear what he was doing? instead of being grateful for having this embassy take him, in he was skateboarding around and kicking the soccer ball constantly. when they took his soccer ball away, he would visibly shake. can you imagine how annoying, ♪ showering, skateboarding in the halls and staying for free. >> why was he staying there? ainsley: he couldn't leave. he couldn't see his friends and family. like solitary confinement. >> you do that action you run the riske of consequences. assange was proud of what he was doing. how am i supposed to have sympathy when the consequences are what. brian: after 40 you should not be skate boarding. steve: you should just walk.

[cheers and applause] ainsley: andrew, when we aired those sound bites and we came to yours people in the audience were laughing. it sounds great, $12,000 a year for every adult. how are you going to pay for that? >> you have to look up who are going the biggest winners from artificial intelligence and self-driving cars and trucks. amazon, google, facebook and uber. american public see very little in the innovation. amazon paid zero in federal taxes. brian: we going to work there? >> of course some will work there but most of us will not work there amazon like you said, steve, if you go to amazon fulfillment center it's morrow bottoms than people. talk to anyone on amazon that is very much the plan. steve: your booker the war on normal people talks about how people are being replaced by automation and changing technology and things like that. people are still going to need money and so you are suggesting a universal basic income. andrew, you know there have

been experiments in other parts of the united states and in other parts of the world where it just hasn't worked. >> well, you don't even need to look across the globe. all you have to do is look at alaska which has had a petroleum dividend for almost 40 years and wildly popular. has created thousands of jobs. steve: because they live there. >> and this was passed by a republican governor. he said, look, how would you rather give the money the government who is going to mess it up or you the alaskan people the alaskan people said yes and now everyone is very thrilled about it. steve: explain the way the dividend works. >> petroleum dividend works put aside the oil money whatever profits come out from the pipeline it goes to the alaskan people. everyone in alaska is getting between 1 and $2,000 a year no questions asked. we need to do the same thing with technology and the new innovations in our economy. we can create a lot of the wealth. but the question is right now who is going to see that wealth? it's not going to be most americans. it's going to be people who happen to be shareholders in these companies. brian: andrew, who gave you suggest in life? who gave you something for free in life?

are you a self-made success story? why are you robbing other people the ability to be a self-made success story? [cheers] >> well, the first people i thought of was my parents. i'm the son of immigrants. my parents came to this country to create a better life for me and my brother. and my father generated 69 u.s. patents for g.e. and ibm. i love this country and i believe this country has been the exemplar of innovation and success over the last number of decades. we have to face facts about the fact our economy is evolving pushing more and more americans to the sidelines and telling those americans pushed to the sidelines like hey, you can be a multimillionaire success story, too. while amazon is making 30% of the stores in their town closed. brian: your heart is in the right place. james has a question. james, where are you? james, what's your question for andrew? >> it's about the electoral college. recently we have been hearing more calls to

eliminate it and we heard during george bush's election and recently during president trump's. why do people seem to think it's a good idea to let new york and california decide the election and ignore the rest of the country? [cheers] brian: he said that in new york u. >> i agree with the questioner that getting rid of the electoral college to me -- i don't even know why we are talking about it in the sense that it has been part of our laws for decades it would require a constitutional amendment to change electoral college. steve: good luck. >> yeah, good luck with that to your point do we just want candidates just campaigning in major cities. the constitutional framers were very wise. i will say sass as a democrat it's very, very bad form to look like you are changing the rules that you have been losing by rules that everyone agreed on for decades.

ains ann has a question for you. steve: ann? right over there. ainsley: that's ann in the past. steve: what's your question. >> my question is a lot of the democrats are running on fixing what's wrong with america and i know jobs are up. i don't think popular belief of because everybody has two jobs that that's why unemployment is low. i think people, myself, probably many people in this room are bringing home more money in their paychecks. and you just said your parents were immigrants. well, i don't think they came to the country and sat back and said okay, now take care of me. they went out and worked for what they h i always grew up that if you worked hard, you could have whatever you want. what exactly are you planning to fix in america? >> yeah. [applause] [cheers] >> you can look at different sets of numbers and statistics, the fact is 78% of americans say they are living paycheck to paycheck.

58% say they can't afford an unexpected bill. gig or contract work much of does not include health insurance or other benefits. if we put $1,000 a month in the hands of every day americans, you are going to spend it in your local communities. you are going to create 2 million new jobs. it's going to go right into your main street economies and we will all be better off for it. steve: thank you for the questions. his book is available in paperback called war on normal people. andrew yang, thank you for joining us. >> thank you all. brian: thank you, andrew. best of luck.

and they are not getting my vote. we -- i came back in the 1960's. i came here in the 1960s. we waited our turn. my parents left us behind. we waited. when we were finally given the green card, we arrived. steve: your parents came legally. >> they came legally. we waited our turn.

>> -- the right way. we did the legal way. it's just -- steve: carlos, thank you very much. where is stanley? stanley? right there. all right. stanley, you are the son of a legal immigrant, right? >> i'm a legal immigrant, yes. steve: what did you make of the president last week telling mexico unless they stop the flow offing mysfin migs coming from the triangle countries he would close the border. >> we have to close the border. no doubt about it. no one wants to take care of that situation because if we admit we do have a problem we have to take care of it. if we start giving green cards away to everybody, then more people are going to come to the border and more people cross later. we have to close the border somewhat as soon as possible and start working with the illegal immigrants we have over here. we have a lot of daca kids and stuff like that. steve: there needs to be a solution for the daca. >> there has to.

everybody is afraid to come to the table and admit it. steve: thank you very much. where is carlton? hello. stand up, sir. >> good morning. steve: you are in law enforcement? >> yes. >> from a law enforcement point of view, what do you think about having all those people come across. >> crime, drugs, and taking jobs away from these communities, inner city communities, it's rampant. and people don't see it i see it i deal with it so. steve: how do you deal with it. >> stops, they call us 911. they do a lot of things that interjects me into what they -- what they are doing here. and what they are doing here, they are not legal. and you can't do anything. steve: what part of the united states are you from? >> south florida. steve: okay. you are from south florida. how big a problem is the illegal migrants situation? >> it's pretty bad. steve: in your jurisdiction, can you ask somebody if they are in the country legally? they have to produce an

i.d., right? >> absolutely. yes. a lot of the them don't have i.d. they may have a card and that's it or passport. but they are not supposed to be here. 30 days in, you are supposed to leave. and they don't. steve: it's a problem you see every day? >> absolutely. steve: thank you very much. round of applause for everybody. very nicely done. all right. many opinions and we are going to hear some more folks. >> yes, we will. jillian: in the meantime get you caught up on news we are following. 26 liberal groups are pushing congress to investigate supreme court justice brett kavanaugh. the organization accepting lawmakers a letter urging them to re-examine sexual misconduct claims now that democrats control the house. kavanaugh denied claims from three women last year and testified along with one of the accusers before being confirmed to the high court. protesters try to storm the stage to attack a

confirmed cases at least 19 states across the country. ainsley: linking the surge to unvaccinated children and warning parents not to have these so-called measle parties have you heard about these to intentionally infect their children. steve: tell us more on what you need to know fox news medical contributor dr. nicole saphier. i was listening to a story here in new york city about how there are a number of anti-vaxers convinced some parents not to vaccinate their children and that has contributed to where we are today. >> not just some, there is a lot of it. to be honest if you doctor google like most of dues a lot of information out there. some is real. some is not. most of it is fake news when it comes to vaccinations. steve: the mmr is completely safe. >> we are all parents here. the mmr has it been linked to side effects? yes. nothing is 100 percent safe. let me tell you most people say they are concerned about mmr and seizures and autism.

a link between autism and seizures. not a link between the mmr vaccine and autism. let me break this down to you. one in 20 kids will get a fib bril seizure when they're outcome u a lot of kids have them. a lot of children here probably have had a seizure when they're young. the mmr vaccine causes a seizure in 1 in 85,000 kids u so, no, it's just i fibrile seizures. when it comes to measles one in four children who get measles hospitalized one in 10,000 can die from it. why, why would we get our kids together to expose them to this horrible infection when we could vaccinate them because the benefits of that vaccination far outweigh the risk. ainsley: blows my mind that mom also take their kids to a playdate and say i hope she gets the measles and when her eyes get really red they start cheering bowers thanks the good lord it worked. >> here is the selfish big

problem with that children infected. first of all you don't get symptoms until after a week that you have been exposed. then you start with a normal, a fever, you can have runny nose. you may get red eyes. a few days after that then you get the rash. but you have probably already brought your child out in public because they just had a runny nose and it's very, very contagious. brian: i have to tell you, dr. saphier i think your message is resonating. everybody here has been vaccinated: i confirmed that dr. saphier thanks so much. ainsley: thanks, guys. no one has a runny nose. he has made a life mission to help our nation's injured and fallen. if there frank siler, we love him.

what happens. i want to seat predicate. is there a reason for it still open to finding that reason. >> remember the distinction, brian, when you say the word spying, that means it was happening, you know, surveillance is okay. here is the warrant, here is the reason we are doing the surveillance. spy something a more renegade word if you will. ainsley: what did you make of james comey saying it's very concerning? >> it's a combination of comey, clapper, brennan. i think they are all caught in a box now. and someone is going to have to explain what happened. brian: you mean that box cnn? [laughter] [applause] >> that's one of the boxes nor north of here. steve: now there could be criminal trouble for some of the people who are involved because devin nunes has turned over to the department of justice apparently some criminal referrals to a number of people regarding a number of

people bad actors. here is he is last night with sean. watch. >> there is five direct referrals based on lying, obstruction of a congressional investigation. and leaking. we had a global leaks referral, which involves just a few reporters but could involve multiple people, then have you conspiracy referrals based on manipulation of intelligence. the second one is based on fisa abuse and other matters. yoa former u.s. attorney now in congress john ratcliffe who serves on intelligence committee and house intelligence -- judiciary committee. so he is going to go with me to brief the attorney general when appropriate. steve: he is serious about trying to get some answers. >> well, i mean, three things there. number one, they went after him as well. and it turns out a lot of the stuff that he said was right. you will have to give him credit for having the courage and backbone to stay in there what i don't love about the entire thing is though we are going to be

going after each other now and we are politic siding a lot. we are weaponizing and criminalizing a lot of the political differences between the two parties. so, for me, i would love to see these people focus on policy, and focus on fixing the borders crisis. focus on right sizing the issues that we have with healthcare and things like this. so, and this is a two and a half year fight. i will take you back to the president a few days after he won re-election and they asked if he was going to go after secretary clinton for some of the issues that were related to her in investigation and he wanted to let it go. and so they came after him brutally hard. and so now we'll have to see what happens as it relates to the president and devin nunes and people like that. my own personal bias is in victory imagine ma'am niment be generous and let's see if we can put all of this aside even though it is unfair even though there probably was some activity that was potentially criminal, i would really like to see

move forward. ainsley: problem is if you don't hold accountable it will happen again. >> i understand. i think that's the big issue with the president he said it from the oval office that he doesn't want it to ever happen to anybody else the way it happened to him. here's the thing. we know a lot of nefarious activity happens. it has happened throughout american history. steve: to this level? >> i think. so do you know why? we didn't have social media. we didn't have cell phones and tracking from email devices and things like that. brian: you mean washington didn't tweet? i had no idea. let's talk about 2020. >> i thought you wrote a book about washington tweeting. brian: it didn't do too well. mostly an ebook. >> one tweet. brian: something the democrats are doing helping the president. they are diametric tri opposed to his economic principles and beliefs. number one medicare for all. number two free preschool number three free college.

the president knows we can't afford that already running at a deficit. what about the messages coming out of the democrats so far? >> i love the message, brian. because it almost ensures the president's re-election. the further they push to the left, the country is not ready for that n. this is by and large a left business enterprise and self-reliance. when they're pushing that and that's obviously a false promise never worked anywhere throughout history and it is certainly not going to work in the united states where this is by and large a group of risk takers. steve: poll the audience right now. hold up your hand if you like the ideas that a number of candidates are pushing. socialism. raise those hands? a little higher. okay. that makes the case. what about capitalism? [cheers] >> it's great for the

president. he has done such a number of these guys postmortem. steve: i haven't noticed. >> he knows how to do it. he needs to get inside people's melons. it's fun to watch. i have got to tell you, i'm glad i am on his team. do you know what i mean? the way coming after me. going after them. brian: the way everyone herb's hand went up they care about healthcare. if you ignore healthcare that's wrong. republicans ignored it in 2018. they paid a price. i'm curious to see what they are going to do in between. >> they never had a plan. that's one of the frustrations. steve: oops? >> he got them to where they always wanted to go. 70 or 80 times repeal and replace. ainsley: can i ask you some questions from audience members. >> absolutely. ainsley: where is george cordoso. >> right here. >> how are you doing, george? >> i have got to put herr book down. steve: book club. ainsley: i will sign it in a minute. >> on a serious note.

in phase 1, the administration, i know they passed the tax breaks which helped the corporations, small business and he changed the rules which we can see it in america. things are more prosperous. people are making money. americans are better off. my question is phase 2. is the administration going to come out with a plan just to target the middle class? this time the middle class and the lower class,. steve: middle class, lower class. brian: where you came from? >> exactly. the answer is the president certainly wants that he talk as lot about that going into the midterms. one of the problems that the president is having though, unfortunately, they don't want to give him anything in the congress. he was ready to cut a deal with them to get border security and a border wall. they did not want to give it to him. he certainly thinks that there should be a second phase to this whole tax reform, which is middle class and lower middle class

related. unfortunately, they are not going to give it to him. this is the threat that he is under. again, i think it sets him up very well for the 2020 narrative. say listen, i tried to do all these different things for the american people. here is the resistance. steve: okay. >> let's see if we can get a turnover in the house. brian: haley, -- follow up. haley, are you here? steve: where is haley? brian: haley, you are next what's your question for anthony scaramucci. >> my question is about your time at the white house. recently donald trump and msnbc and cnn have been saying that he is exexhibiting workplace violence with all of the turnover of his staff. i'm wondering if you can talk about your time working with donald trump as president. >> i heard somebody say i was there for 10 days. i was there for 11 days, okay? [laughter] [applause] >> don't cheat me out of that one day that was an important day. was that the day i got

fired. here is the day i would say to you. no workplace violence. the president is actually a very easy guy to work with. but have you got to listen to him and follow his guidance. truth of the matter i made a mistake and they decided to fire me over it i'm a very big boy. i stayed loyal to the president. brian: are you concerned about the turnover. some republicans express some concern. >> at this point i would say to the president hire a personnel director that likes, you know, that's more olivia to you than what's currently going on. that would be my best advice. i think what happens they are hiring never trumpers and rnc people not really tied to the president wants agenda. steve: all right. ainsley: i would rather him fire people though than keep somebody in there just because he doesn't want to have that reputation. i would rather someone in there doing the best job. >> here's the problem once that anonymous letter was written to the "new york times." i think that put the president in the corner because now he is not sure who he is trust. steve: did we ever figure out who that was? brian: throw out a name. [laughter] >> i think it was george

washington. he tweeted something. brian: how many people want to see anthony scaramucci back at the white house? >> no, no, no, no, no no. brian: go back. they need you u. >> brian, we had dinner one night in the white house you and me? brian: that went well. >> it went down hill from there. it was fun. the food was great. brian: i remember the food. ainsley: how many have an amazon alexa in your house? have you heard that amazon's alexa is reportedly listening to your conversation? what does our audience think about that? brian: help me find my keys.

fully leave japan or germany and that work out okay. i don't know that the middle east has the same dynamics though. for me it's about knowing why my brothers and sisters are there. that way when casualties happen because they are going to happen. understand it and we can honor them that way. steve: sean, we have come a long way, when the president took office, you would look at the isis map and it was a big chunk of that part of the world. and now you can barely see it. >> yeah, he said he was going to eradicate isis on the campaign trail and he made that promise. isis is on the brink. it is a good thing, too. they are a global existential threat to every man, woman, and child from every race, creed and religion. and it means so much to a war fighter on the battlefield, boots on the ground guys when yo know your president has your back. because, look, the bottom line is if you know what your mission is like joey said and you are focused, you can accomplish anything. with that u.s. flag on your shoulder and the might and power of the u.s. military at your back, the u.s. military can do anything.

she is out of control. someone said hey, why don't you write one. so i wrote one. it won't be out for couple months. they do a presale thing. steve: print it. put toner in the copier. ainsley: your mom wrote another book? >> number two. ainsley: when will it come out? >> i don't know, probably next friday. steve: you're mother came out with a book, immediately sold out everywhere. went to number eight on "new york times" list. steve: unbelievable. >> nobody wanted the thing. i put them out on facebook and sold out in two weeks. publisher called, said you didn't tell us she can write. yeah, she can write. she is 81, out of control. brian: mike rowe, come on the show, be relaxed. be yourself. >> who are these people? steve: we have no idea. they came in and they were here. [cheers and applause] brian: this is cross-section of

america audience. they're from out of town. >> like the "merv griffin show." i love it. brian: that is on "seinfeld." steve: there is poll out, more than a third of millenials think if you make $100,000, which for many people has been a dream for them, if they make $100,000, they are middle class. [laughter]. >> all right. it's, good news, they won't be millenials in five years, right? they will be in another bracket, have another opinion. they can share the opinion. i don't -- steve: where does that come from? 100,000 is middle class? >> kind of like, aren't we in a place where we can decide everything based on what we want it to be as opposed to what it kind of is? if we say a thing is that, well then, that's my, that's my truth, right? brian: right. >> my truth is 150 grand a year is middle class. you might disagree. we'll agree to be wrong. we're in crazy town.

ainsley: is that social media? is it hollywood? is it their parents? >> i guess maybe something going on that says your opinion is not only valuable but so valuable that it ought not be challenged. so if you, if you believe you're a thing that you're not, not that you're wrong, just your belief system is structured in such a way that you're not entirely right. steve: you call that crazy town? >> something like that, yeah. brian: another issue, we thought about you right away, when the college admission scandal broke. we have couple high-profile names like lori loughlin could look at prison time, felicity huffman. if you have money, find may way to get it and use my fame to make it happen. the college programs need to be looked at. >> i'm not sure what the bigger

story is. i think it is interesting wealthy people cheat we get angrier than we do when middle class people cheat. i'm not sure why we do that. but it is kind of fun to be outraged at people who are clearly privileged and don't need to cheat, but ethics have nothing to do with money, right? you can be dishonest and can have your thumb on the scale regardless of your tax bracket. so on one hand, yeah, it is outrageous what happened. but it's also outrageous that the cost of college has increased faster than the cost of health care, real estate food, energy. brian: $70,000 at some colleges. >> my four-year degree which i got from a liberal arts school in 1984, all-in, with two years of community college before it, cost $11,000. today the exact same thing is 94 grand, right? it is not about, we ought to be as outraged at the speed with

which tuition increased as we are by the lengths people will go to get their kids into fancy schools. steve: as long as we've known you, you talked about, there are some kid who don't have to go to college, there are jobs out there, if you want to learn a skill. >> nobody has to go to college, right? what i went to school, part of what we paid for is access. need access to information you can only get in school through really, really excellent professors. today, guess what, here it is, 98% of the known knowledge in the world, 98% is accessible through the device. i'm not comparing a smartphone to an ivy league degree. i'm just saying right now, i can go back to the hotel, i can watch a lecture from mit for free, right? steve: right. >> all of that information is now available to everyone whose walking around, who has access to the most basic kinds of technology. brian: if you just want to work a lathe for a living, want to be

a plumber, give a bit of prestige to toes positions. we haven't done it. >> it is starting to. we've been at this for 10 years now, right? my foundation has done nearly 1000 work ethic scholarships. the bulk of those are welders, steamfitters, pipe fitters, mechanics. steve: all good jobs. >> they don't require four-year degree. they require training, absolutely require a work ethic. ainsley: can make a lot of money. >> six figures, middle class dare i say. ainsley: folks in the audience want to talk to you. where is carl? >> carl's here? carl. how are you? [laughter]. >> good morning. you touched on my question a little bit. when we were in school we had wood shop, metal shop, auto mechanics. >> yeah. >> how do you feel vocational education is going these days? >> it is a long, slog coming back but it's really slow. i think the more interesting question, carl, honestly, how do

we get rid of it, right? that happened back in the '70s. it didn't happen overnight but it felt like it. it used to be called the vocational arts. we took the art away. then it was just vo-tech. we took that away, made it shop. we walked outlined the barn and shot it in the head. that is how you get rid of shop class, right? i can't think of a better way to tell a kid what is important or not important than by removing all traces of its existence from view. so you can't even look at metal shop, wood shop. they're not even there to dislike. they're simply gone. steve: i'm lucky, i learned how to gas weld back in the '70s. mike rowe -- acetylene. mike roe. row, the new book, the way i heard it. >> thank you. steve: his mother who is a thing again. >> leave my mother out of it.

steve: check out mike's mother. >> check out mike's mom. steve: since you are mike rowe and a television professioncan you read what is coming up? >> eric and lara are coming up and look at them, they're amazing.

properly authorized by the appropriate people. >> it did occur. it did occur, right? the problem with these guys, they go so deep, found themselves. they kept on digging, found a little mirror, saw their own face in the mirror. the nice thing about barr, you have a grown up in the room, who calls out this nonsense because, you know, my father went around during the campaign, talked about the deep state. the deep state, guys, does exist. by the way still exists, but it does exist and did exist. you see all the emails between fbi people about insurance policies and other things. you see dossiers paid for by political candidates, then were leaked through people's wives. it's really incredible. >> that who is the first person is, called them out, donald trump way back when. he is is always right. you might not like it when he says it. but he is always right. >> interesting the day after the barr report came out, you go on

all the channels, watching cnn, not that i watch cnn or msnbc. we don't care about russia. we want to talk about health care. how disingenuous is this. you've been talking about russia for the last three years, all day, every day. all of sudden comes out the whole thing was a hoax, my father, myself, lara, don, ivanka had been saying now they want to talk about health care. this is why they're going to lose. this is why they're going to lose in 2010. [applause] brian: you called it, played a major role in the re-election. where are you guys at, focusing on 18 democrats, where are you at with fund-raising and the plan compared to 2 1/2 years ago? >> we're light years ahead of where we were 2 1/2 years ago. i would like to say we were very grassroots in the 2016 campaign, meaning none of us had any idea what we're doing. we're very streamlined. we're looking forward to 2020. reality we'll let the democrats battle it out, see who their

candidate is. we're not worried about fib we've seen get in the race. we're poised to break fund-raising records. we would like to raise a billion dollars. so we're feel great exactly where we are. brian: where are we at right now? >> at campaign directly we raised about $60 million. but combined with the rnc we're close to 200 million. steve: one of the top issues will be immigration. that has always been one of our father's core issues. nancy pelosi says she wants to find common ground on immigration, infrastructure prescription drug pricing. picked up the phone to call your dad couple days ago. here is what she said in last 24 hours it is complicated. i'm to the giving up on the president on this regarding immigration this has to happen. it's inevitable. she went ton say the president is fear-monger. about globalization,

immigration, all of that in the campaign. if the economy is better for many of these people i think that fear tactic would be diminished. in other words i want to work with him but he is a bad guy. >> that is their m.o. he is racist, sexist. all the things that he is exactly not. imagine how effective we could be as a country. if you actually had people willing to work together. i know that utopian view, if you sat down really cared about prescription drug prices on top of my father's mind every single day, care about solving the problem at the southern border, you see all these incredible border patrol agents. they always invite them. miss pelosi, police come down. you keep saying there is no problem, come down, do one shift with me. ride in the right seat of my car for one shift, you won't be saying there is not a problem. if they're truly was sincerity to fix the problem, it could be done but problem is they just, they don't want my father to accomplish anything. you know has been, so effective, every time he accomplishes something, another mark that the

american people see that a businessman was able to get done. brian: eric, i do think they are looking to do a deal. they have haven't done anything for 100 days. with one branch they can't do anything without the president. maybe there is something to get done. >> truthfully it will be good for them. policies failed. green new deal, $93 trillion. it is total joke. no one can eat beef or drive your car, couldn't fly home. you see some of the policies coming out. they're disasterous. i'm telling you this is not what america stands for, not what the american people are going to vote for. i really, i really do hope they come to the table for all the right reasons. steve: let's see. ainsley: will y'all stick around? >> let's do it. ainsley: audience ready to ask some questions?
