appears the fire was caused by ongoing construction but if the race have not yet determined unofficial cost. french president emmanuel macron is treating the situation as a national emergency. we brought in trace gallagher to get us up to speed with the latest. >> just after 6:00 p.m. paris time, people cite a small amount of smoke was visible coming from around the spire that was in the process of being renovated. within minutes, the smoke got blackened flames were visible. firefighters were on scene quickly helping to get some of the workers out of the building but in the early minutes, witnesses say the resources did not appear very strong, including a noticeable lack of water which is odd, considering notre dame sits on an island and a river runs right alongside the property. it's also notable that the fuel feeding this fire is extraordinary. 800-plus years ago, the cathedral was built using

52 acres of timber. so much with the inside of the cathedral was nicknamed the forest. over the centuries, they would of course became tinderbox drive. the loss of the cathedral itself is devastating but the inside was filled with priceless artwork and artifacts, including architectural drawings of the cathedral and the city of paris. it's unclear if those documents were damaged or destroyed and the fire or may be destroyed in the fire. if there is any glimmer of hope in all this it's that 16 copper statues, including the statue of st. andrew were taken away before the renovation. those have been spared. notre dame is the cathedral of the paris archdiocese, and it was expecting maybe 100, 100-plus thousand catholics to celebrate easter services this sunday but the building has long been a symbol of beauty, peace, love, and faith for more than just catholics.

that was evident as people of all faiths gathered outside the burning cathedral and sang song songs. notre dame has more visitors each year than the eiffel tower and firefighters in france say they are not sure right now if they can put this fire out. i took almost a century and a half to build. it is unclear how long and how much it would cost to rebuild. dana. >> dana: trace gallagher, we'll take it around the table. three of us have been to visit. donna brazile, i know you had the most recent visit of all of us, catholic. obviously this is a world-renowned site but there's also a lot of religious experiences that are held there. >> donna: it's a sacred place. it's a place many catholics and others go not just to pay their respects to a very historic and

enduring placement when you walk through that building, you get a sense that millions have gone before you to kneel, to pray, and to bear witness to the cross fits in the cathedral itself. i am shocked. i'm saddened, especially because now and it is holy week. >> dana: it fire is the enemy of these buildings, jesse. >> jesse: there was a lot of wood behind the external structure that was unable to be put out unfortunately. sad going into good friday and easter sunday and you have tens of millions of catholics all over the world watching this unfold, such an iconic building. everybody in the world knows it. something like this, when you see it, and this fire collapses in real time and the images beamed out to everybody in the world, it's sad but it's also time to reflect on what brings us together. religion. the catholic faith. i think if you're a catholic, if you're episcopalian or buddhist, whatever, you look at this and

you can recognize the historic importance of it and hopefully not focus on what divides us and instead what brings us together. >> dana: we all know matter is not permanent but human achievement on the monument to that end not just the fact that it was religious but the sciences and math and literature. victor hugo immortalizing the notre dame cathedral when he wrote the hunchback of notre dame. >> greg: never read it. 800 pages. i know the title. saw the movie. >> dana: i read the book. >> greg: the upside is no one is dead. when you're looking at this, you know, it brings back memories of 2001 when he saw the structure go down and remembered and you thought about the people dying. thank god hear you don't have that association. you don't think of that.

this is a matter i think if it's an accident, imagine being the person that destroyed an 800 years structure. i have knocked over vases but this is something, how do you -- it's like, imagine being that person. pretty soon they're going to have to find out if it was a construction worker, if it was a blowtorch. >> donna: you know what happens with renovations. tools and... >> dana: lawrence, let's get your thoughts. >> lawrence: reg alluded to the loss of life that there's been no reports of a suspected i think that's where when we see these tragedies, especially in this day and age, we jump to that conclusion. there was no loss of life. no suspect of terrorism. i never got to visit the building. it's one of those things,

because it's so historic, although say -- they say the copper statues -- you can't replace history. it's pretty sad. >> donna: it's a spiritual home for many parisians. during this special week, voice and our hearts out to people who will not have a spiritual home to go to. i'm sure there are other facilities -- >> dana: in my ear just now we had a little bit of good news that the paris police chief is saying that the structure, the fire is not going to spread from where it is now. that's at least a little bit of a silver lining on this report. as we told you, the cathedral of notre dame is no more. we have been watching this unfold all day with some incredible breaking news coverage. we will continue our show is scheduled from here on out. we've got a big show for you, all sorts of things. following this breaking news about the fire but we also will be switching gears to politics. let's go to nancy pelosi dismissing outspoken new members of congress.

said medicare will lead us to a socialist dictatorship. this is an ongoing theme we are up against. however, i do reject socialism as an economic system. if people have that view, that's their view. that's not the view of the democratic party. >> lawrence: pelosi also not impressed with the new outspoken progress members of congress like alexandria ocasio-cortez. >> you have these wings, aoc and her group on one side. >> that's like five people. >> no, the progressive group. >> i'm progressive. >> lawrence: i'm going to the democratic member of the table. ms. donna. >> greg: you did give money to obama. >> jesse: that's a long story. >> donna: there are millions of us. >> lawrence: has your party been hijacked? >> donna: know, when it comes

to making public policy, were having a dance party. we are talking about things the american people are worried about. whether it's health care, 20, 30% of their take-home pay spent on premiums or paying for prescription medicine. it's an interesting conversation we are having internally during this presidential cycle. were going to debate everything from climate change to reparations to medicare for all. i don't know what will end up in the democratic platform. i don't know what will end up on capitol hill but i'm glad to see that we're having a debate about serious issues. >> lawrence: jesse, it seems like every time they allow burning to run on the ticket, even though they give them some pushback, that the parties going more and more left instead of finding that middle of america, the joe biden democrats, the donna brazile democrats. >> jesse: donna said the democrats are having a dance

party. i don't think they have any rhythm. you guys are way off -- 's before coming from jesse. >> jesse: you are way off beat and you can't find it. i would look at what we just saw there and say that aoc just got slapped square the face by nancy pelosi on network television right off the master's lead and which tiger won. everybody saw that. she's got to be sitting at home thinking what the hell did i jesse? from what i know about aoc, she's going to come for the throne. this is not the first time this happened. nancy pelosi mocked her green new deal, said green dream or whatever you call it. so it's more important to have more votes than twitter followers. at this point it looks like nancy didn't really have to handle it that way. she could've said you know what, i'm a democrat, progressive. we have moderates and we have young up-and-coming democratic socialists but we all want health care and we all hate trump. she didn't do that. she was cold on purpose.

that tells me a few things. it tells me there's a lot of bad blood between aoc and nancy. tells me the civil war is real also tells me that nancy knows that aoc and her merry band of socialist, they need to be contained, nate -- not mainstream. >> donna: there's a big difference between rhythm and groove. we will get to that later. >> jesse: when we go to nashville. >> lawrence: dana, she slaps her on tv but she still gives her powerful committee assignments, there's still a lot of pressure going from the progressive wing. they are like the freedom caucus. she can talk all day. >> dana: i think nancy pelosi is trying to lead a party where you have the candidates moving a little farther left than where mainstream voters are. pelosi is looking at this and saying okay, so i've got this new firebrand and she's got a megaphone and everyone listens everything she says. but i also have 31 31 districts

where trump won but democrats won in 2018 and she's got to try to protect those in 2020 so i think she's trying to do her best. from what i can see, aoc has kept -- held her fire against pelosi. that might not last forever, and pretty soon if you see president trump taunting them, driving a wedge between the two of them and suggesting hey, aoc, why can't pelosi get anything done? don't you want to turn the fire inwards? or is present obama indicated last week, a circular firing squad. >> lawrence: greg, there's a big swing on socialism. >> greg: i am scared of being swings -- big swings. i fall off of them. it's like being the headlining band. you don't want to hear anybody tell you how great the opening band days. it drives you crazy. so nancy is going i don't really want to hear about these people. they are nothing. i've been around forever. these are just some -- it's a cool kid phenomenon.

the loudest kids come in and they make noise but will they be around like nancy? who knows. i for once sympathize with her because she's not battling her party or republicans, she is battling a consensus activist media who falsely enlarge the footprint of three newcomers, the young arp starts -- the young upstarts. the bluster on twitter and the twitter exchange. the real work is being done somewhere else. there is an illusion of influence based on twitter footprint and intersectionality and nancy is going, that's not what this party is. you've got to listen to nancy. if they chase the beliefs of the upstarts, you might get -- if you get a candidate who is running against trump on reparations and socialized health care and the new green deal, you're going to lose. >> lawrence: it's just not a handful from the college campuses. it's okay to say when it was

just bernie. bernie came with reinforcements. i think they have to take them seriously. >> donna: let me say as a democrat, she's right. there's only about five or six people who self identify as democratic socialists. while they make a lot of noise, they are not the band playing the music. >> lawrence: up next, president trump ready to make good on his threat to dump illegal immigrants into sanctuary cities at a big-time hollywood liberal now agrees with him on immigration. you've got to see it next on "the five" ." considering?

>> donna: fox news alert. a catastrophic fire still raging in paris, france, at the notre dame cathedral. we are getting new information. paris prosecutors think the fire was started accidentally based on their preliminary investigation. we'll keep you updated as we get

more information throughout the hour. in the meantime, president trump is not backing away from his threat to send illegal immigrants to sanctuary cities. the president tweeting: "those illegal immigrants who can no longer be legally held congress must fix the laws and loopholes will be, subject to homeland security, given to sanctuary cities and states!" democrats are not too happy about it. >> the president has no right to spend money appropriated by congress for the purpose of shipping immigrants all over the country. he shouldn't use them as what he imagines retribution to political opponents in various areas. it's another misuse of presidential power against the law. >> he's trying to pit americans against each other and make us less. >> this is clearly a political move for the president. he is using immigrants as pawns in his political game of chess.

>> donna: grad. i couldn't wait to come to you. you do know that the democrats worked it out with republicans to give more money for extra beds during the government shutdown. why not go back to congress and say look, i need more money for more beds. why not ask for supplemental provoke i don't know. maybe he could do that. this is forcing people to take an idea out of the abstraction and put into real life. cher could embrace the idea of a sanctuary city until it is in the real practical moment of her life. >> dana: and set it out loud. >> greg: what term did was succeeded in cracking a bubble. she saw a rip in her own movie screen. you hear another movie going on. that's what just happened. she is going well. >> donna: she is not mayor garcetti. she is not the governor.

>> greg: how do you know that? have you seen them together? it forces the democrats to decide what kind of number do they want on immigration and the chicago mayor said bring them on which i thought was great -- >> donna: dana, it also forces i.c.e. to become best drivers or travel agents and they would have to transport them. >> greg: aren't they already? >> dana: this is not happening. it's not practically going to happen but it was the idea of it the change the topic and gets cher and other people saying i don't want that. cory booker, candidate, says he's trying to make our cities unsafe. oh, do you think sanctuary cities are unsafe? it's practically not going to happen but it puts the idea out there and everybody can say he doesn't know what he's talking about. it's illegal and could never actually happen. >> greg: how can you say it's illegal? sanctuary cities are illegal. >> dana: taking people on the

bus. it's a technicality. >> greg: put you through the illegality out the window. >> donna: required to be authorized by congress, lawrence, did deport so-called illegal immigrants, not relocate them. how do you get past the fact that you have to go to congress and get a law passed? >> lawrence: you guys don't want them to be deported. >> donna: what you mean you guys? >> lawrence: the democrats. here's the problem. they took the bait. donald trump was never going to implement this. this was just to show the hypocrisy from the democrats on it and they take it every time. he will make this extreme position. okay, you guys take them. you guys take them. they were like, we don't want them. >> greg: is somewhat like the democrats think immigrants -- we don't want them. >> donna: in november the president threatened to do this and then again in february. once again, we have a migration crisis. everybody agrees with that.

the problem is lindsey graham, chair of the judiciary committee says he believes we can come up with a -- >> lawrence: you just said to deport them. the moment there is deportation, we all know it's going to happen. i see rounded up families. it is the law. you guys have made it very clear that trump respecting the law on this issue because it's about hearts and minds and not the legal document. >> donna: that's not true. every time you've seen immigration reform come up as a topic, a political topic, it's a bipartisan -- >> lawrence: you are talking about reform, not the current law. that's another debate. the current losses if you are here illegally you get deported. >> donna: don't you think it should be in the context of some type of immigration reform. >> lawrence: after the fact but until reform is done, we have laws in place. i'm a libertarian. i love criminal justice reform. but until those laws are reformed, you can't smoke weed. >> jesse: trump call your bluff and you have nothing. there is no crisis?

you guys love illegal immigrants? you are so welcoming to refugees with her sanctuary cities? here, take them. and you know you guys said? instant of thing sure, will have them, they said oh, no. we don't want them because they drive up crime and the increased property and you fell for it and were exposed as hypocrites, and greg made a great point the other day. a brilliant point and he said nancy pelosi, when she was addressing this issue, she goes you know what? why would the president tried to perpetuate fear? what do you have to be afraid of, nancy? i thought these refugees were innocent, hardworking families that want to come and contribute to your san francisco sanctuary city. instead, everyone is saying they are pawns. that's right, maybe they are pawns. politics and chess. the democrats -- >> dana: can i ask one thing? >> donna: political retribution, that's all it is. >> jesse: wise it -- why is it

retribution? >> dana: , make a as i said practically it's not happening. the reason a lot of those mirrors, like the mira chicago and the mayor of seattle. they know it's actually not happening. and i maintain one other thing, this discussion for the last four days talking about this dude love thing -- did nothing to alleviate the flow of migrants. >> greg: we have not seen progress. he introduced an idea that forced people to address, i call it the cher effect, address their own hypocrisy. i'm going to use a scott adams math on you. the chicago mayor is smart, embracing the migrants coming here, they lower the crime rate because if the city gets larger, the crime rate may go down. you do believe that immigrants

commit fewer crimes, that is a good thing for chicago. >> donna: there's a reason why the legal department at i.c.e. said no. coming up, tiger woods roars back with an amazing win for the record books at the masters. with the most lobster dishes lobsterfesof the yearred lobster like our classic lobster lover's dream... so hurry in! lobsterfest ends april twenty-first. and now for a limited time, get ten percent off red lobster to go. visionworks can do more than the right pair of glassesat. can make you look amazing, too. get two complete pairs of single vision glasses for $59 or two progressives for $99. and choose from over 500 frames. visionworks. we're here to help you.

could you only have one home instead of three? can you give me an example of economic inequality that exists after you factor in age, experience, education? older people tend to have higher incomes and more wealth. you are older and richer than most. aren't you proof of economic mobility, not inequality? since you became a millionaire, you've trained your sites on billionaires. there are 585 of them in the united states. if we took their money, would our problems be solved? it's been said if you are not a liberal when you're young you have no heart but if you aren't a conservative when you're old, you have no brain. what's your excuse? joining us now are bret baier and martha maccallum. they are moderating tonight's town hall with bernie sanders. i think it went pretty soft on bernie. what do you think? >> bret: would really like to have you here because obviously one through five sounds good to us. speak two different versions of those that you're going to hear tonight. >> bret: something like that. >> greg: let's go around the

horn. >> dana: i have a question about the location because i think it's super interesting that where you are, there was a 13-point swing. obama voters in 2012 but by 13 points, trump motors in 2016. curious, i'm sure going to ask, if bernie sanders thinks districts like those that he thinks he can flip back. >> bret: i think it's one of the reasons he's doing this. pennsylvania has one of the swing -iest states. there are many trump voters who switched. they were democratic voters and they went to trump in 2016 and i think that's one of the reasons he's here. >> martha: if you look at the voters who were bernie supporters in the primary process, 11 or 12% of them ended up building up for hillary clinton but for donald trump, now president trump. these are the areas that he needs to come to. it's politically astute of him

to know this is where he needs to be if he wants to flip those voters in places like pennsylvania. >> donna: hey, bret, as you know senator sanders ran on trade in 2016 and he has called the president's policy is weak labor protections. would leave asking tonight why the presidents trade policies are weaker than the policies he's pushing inside the democratic primary? >> bret: trade is definitely a topic that will come up, donna. it's key to this region. we are in the shadow of bethlehem steel, plants that closed down in 1995. this area was devastated when he did. it's a key issue for voters here and throughout really this entire region. you look at those states, michigan, pennsylvania, wisconsin, ohio. i think that's really the battleground for 2020, as you look at the map now. >> martha: a lot of those

people are the category that were looked upon as the forgotten voters and both bernie sanders and president trump tried to tap into that and what we have heard from bernie sanders is that he believes that the president has failed those forgotten voters. do the voters feel that way? that's going to be the big the g question. >> greg: if you are staying at the bethlehem hotel, there is a picture of me in the bar. i can't tell you why it's there. i think you did stop by and have a drink. stay six i am sure they are going to do that, greg. i have a lot of respect for bernie sanders. i think the fact that he's doing this fox news town hall this early in the race and while he's the top many of the polls shows a lot of political intelligence because he's signaling to his competitors that i'm not here to hit softballs and he is showing he has a general election mind-set. he's going to look for as many voters wherever they are and to as wide of an audience as possible. you're not going to listen to any of my questions because you've probably got them nailed

down but are you going to have a moment, like the boxers or briefs question or something? ask him about tiger woods or "game of thrones" or something like that. >> martha: is that something you think we should ask? should we ask bernie sanders about boxers or briefs? >> jesse: not bernie. is there going to be question where it goes, everyone wants to know about a pop culture scenario? >> martha: i think if we shared it with you now it might ruin the moment. i don't think we are likely to do that. stick around and watch. >> lawrence: there is a new poll out that says bernie is taking the lead. will you press him on this? is there a growing support for him and why? >> bret: yeah, i think in almost every poll, he is in the lead as a declared candidate. we know that vice president

biden is not yet in and he leads many polls. you're right. think of the evolution here from the outsider who was pressing hillary clinton and came very close to now the front runner who has the most money in the democratic field and is getting the biggest ground and in some polls he's leading and is leading as a declared candidate. >> martha: i don't think the alexandria ocasio-cortezs of the world right now would exist or be as excepted as they are if it weren't for the ground that bernie sanders lay down. his story is extraordinary because he's forced to conversation in america that i never thought i would live to see, whether or not we should be a capitalist or socialist nation and that's a question that is very fundamental to where we are in this race right now. it's an interesting place to be in this country. >> bret: we should point out we are probably minutes away from getting bernie sanders' tax returns for ten years. i don't know why they put it out 30 minutes before the town hall

but we'll have it. >> martha: start looking it over as soon as we get it. >> greg: bret and martha, have fun. we will see you tonight at 6:30 p.m. eastern for the bernie sanders town hall. is up next. this is huntsville, alabama. aka, rocket city, usa. this is a very difficult job. failure is not an option. more than half of employees across the country
