9:00 am
>> investigating the investigators. as they look at a contempt on bill barr, they're look examining the origins of the mueller probe. welcome to news headquarters from washington, i'm kristin fisher. leland: welcome back. kristin: thanks. leland: it seems like so long ago. i'm leland vittert. and the attorney general telling fox news that the allegations that he lied to congress is, quote, laughable.
9:01 am
garrett tenney here to separate the talking points. >> bill barr did not seem concerned that the democrats are pushing to hold him in contempt. he called it part of the usual political circus playing out. in his first interview since becoming attorney general again, he told our bill hemmer he's been trying to get answers to questions how the trump russia probe got started and a lot of the answers don't add up. and he has more questions about what happened than when he started which is why he believes the investigations into the investigators are so important. >> if we're worried about foreign influence, for the very same reason we should be worried about whether government officials abuse their power and put their thumb on the scale. and so i'm not saying that happened, but i'm saying that we have to look at that. >> many top democrats argue that barr is simply trying to defend president trump with the investigations and this morning, congressman jamie raskin fired back at the attorney general's
9:02 am
explanation. >> the deep state conspiracy theory which the attorney general of the united states just advanced in that statement there which i had not seen before, is a classic right wing authoritarian propaganda move. it's a kind of stab in the back thesis that there are people inside the government who started all of this and concocted it and we know that that's an absolute fiction. >> the justice department is now overseeing a number of investigations looking into various aspects of the government's actions in the trump russia probe, one of those is contacted by the do j. inspector general looking into the fbi surveillance on trump associates. we may get nens a few weeks or may end up with more questions. leland: that seems to be the theme so far. garrett tenney, thanks. kristin: president trump's new immigration proposal is likely to face an uphill battle in congress even among the republican parties ranks and
9:03 am
with speaker nancy pelosi calling the plan dead on arrival. arrival. >> hi, kristin. citing migrants seeking ally-- asyl asylum, they would send them away from the border for processing, from border towns to cities across the country. they're looking at various locations that would house the migrants releasing them as they wait for immigration court hearings. they haven't identified specific locations, florida officials in broward county have been notified they could be receiving migrants. >> is it humanitarian to bring people that have no real connection here, have no shelter here, no way to provide theirselves from an area at least they're being provided for now, into an environment, and release them with no means of transportation? to me that's not humanitarian.
9:04 am
>> florida governor ron desantis, a vocal supporter of president trump plans to fight any plans that would send migrants from the southern border to south florida. he says florida cannot accommodate, quote, dumping migrants into florida and desantis thinks it will tax the state resources, health care, and law enforcement. >> this is not something that came down from the white house, this is something that came out of the agency and you know, sometimes this stuff happens and so, it's going to ultimately be something i'm going to have to talk with the president about. >> the interim border patrol sector chief in san diego says right now migrants are being flown to his location from texas. he says cbp is considering whether or not to add flights that could include the detroit, buffalo, and miami areas. kristin. kristin: thank you. leland. leland: pick up where jeff paul left off, from the home of barbecue and the member of the
9:05 am
homeland security committee emanuel cleaver. appreciate you being here on a saturday. all right, so we've got buffalo, detroit, south florida on that list that you just lettered from jeff paul. would you be okay with adding kansas city and missouri to that list? >> well, i think most of the cities in the nation would like to be welcoming to immigrants providing that we have the resources to accommodate them. i'm not in support of picking up immigrants at the border and then taking them to cities and letting them off buses. so, i think we have to have a strategy and arguing is not a strategy, so i think-- >> congressman, you've got thousands of people coming across the border all the time. strategy or not you've got to have some place to put them. now they're talking about building tent cities.
9:06 am
isn't it spreading them around a better idea? >> as i said i think that kansas city and many other cities would be welcoming. i certainly would be personally and would use whatever influence i had to create a welcoming environment. i'm just saying, all of a sudden we would have whatever number, thousands maybe, hundreds, and we want to be able to provide them with whatever they need to survive. i'm not sure that without a strategy and without knowing, you know, sometime in advance or preparation that we're going to be of any advantage to them. leland: well, you bring up a good point. the mayor of yuma, arizona has been on the program before and he says he's overwhelmed and declared state of emergency because of how many migrants came in. and what do you think garrett tenney talking about bill barr and that this is turned in a political circus, not worried about being held in contempt, on your side of the aisle, a
9:07 am
constitutional crisis. have the words been overhyped to where we're at? >> first of all, let me say i'm not a lawyer, but i can tell you that i think there are people who probably are celebrating all the chaos, putin is probably one of them. but i do think that you know, when we start-- i'm not sure we're in a constitutional crisis. i am sure that there is an infringement right now on the constitution. i think there's an i am pertinent response to the constitution by the president and i think that all the people celebrating the fact that nobody is allowed to come and testify before congress, they're essentially saying that no longer should article one be a factor in our lives. leland: eric holder was held in contempt of congress and the republic still survived. >> and i was there. leland: yeah. >> the difference of course, and
9:08 am
the difference of course is that i don't ever remember in our history where individuals were just prohibited from testifying before congress. and congress-- >> i don't think na attorney general barr has been prohibited from testifying. he said he would testify, but he wouldn't testify unless staffers question him rather than members of congress. that's on the side of what holder did, right? >> my understanding is that the attorney general said he would not testify with staffers. but keep in mind, we just had a hearing with a supreme court justice, a supreme court justice over on the senate side, the judiciary committee, where a former staffer or-- >> i guess my question. just to get back to the issues of rhetoric here. we're in a constitutional crisis because the attorney general says he won't testify in front of both staffers and committee members and asked the committee to pick one? that qualifies as a
9:09 am
constitutional crisis. >> i didn't use the term constitutional crisis, but we do have a serious problem, it's not just the attorney general, it's the president's son. leland: the president's son testified. even former staffers who the president is saying will not be allowed to testify. and so-- >> but-- >> essentially we're emasculating the title one creation of the founders. leland: congressman, i got the idea. i appreciate it. and come back and talk to us. as you pointed out, the issue on the immigration, finding places for these folks is not going away. when you start welcoming immigrants to kansas city let us know and we'll come and talk to you about it. >> well, unity is important and i'm one. people who believe instead of tearing the nation apart we've got to find out ways to bring them together. leland: i think that joe biden is going to talk about just that when he kicks off a rally.
9:10 am
>> good to see you. kristin: let's bring in the republican side. arizona congressman and house judiciary committee andy biggs, thanks for coming on. your colleague says what is happening is an infringement on the constitution by the president of the united states. i'm assuming you don't agree. >> what he's talking about, i guess, bill barr refuse today testify or provide documents and there's -- there's a legitimate oversight function that is constitutionally different to the legislative branch. we're on a fishing he expedition. they said this is all about finding evidence so they can impeach the president of the united states. that's no longer oversight. if you want to impeach him, put forward your resolution and go
9:11 am
about it that way. and representative cleaver is right in one sense, and that is that when eric holder was held in contempt, we're talking about a year and a half of investigative work and an attempt to get information from mr. holder that he refused to give. that's a completely different thing from trying to get 1.4 million documents within less than two weeks. so it's a big issue here, but it's not-- it's certainly certainly not a constitutional crisis or an impingement on the constitution. kristin: they want him to testify. do you want bob mueller to testify? >> there are things i would like to ask bob mueller. i'd like to talk about the instigation of the mueller investigation and how he got the fisa abuse-- mr. mu
9:12 am
mr. mueller-- >> they were talking he would come in june? >> i doubt it. >> i wasn't expecting such a short answer. don't usually get that. let' talk about immigration, the trump administration is considering sending some of these migrants at the border to other cities. i know you're pretty close to the border in arizona, but i'm curious if you would be comfortable with some of the migrants being transported to your district? >> well, believe it or not, they're already being transported to the phoenix metro area. thousands of them. and i got a kick out of representative cleaver saying, now, we just need some time, we just need some time to get this stuff together before we can do this in our city, in kansas city. think about this. what you've got going on is we're overrun in the arizona as a border state. yuma can't handle it, otera
9:13 am
county in new mexico can't handle it. we don't get ready for it. we're seeing hundreds released every day and 4,000 crossing the southern border every day. kristin: and so you would be okay with more coming into your district. >> no, kristin, we can't handle it. that's the point. and that's what ice and border patrol are saying. the border states are being overrun and really don't even have facilities. they're trying to find more facilities in maricopa county, but the churches, ngo's, city of phoenix has even told us they don't have any more resources. the city of phoenix is a big city, metro area about 5 million people and we're overtaxed and so, we need to spread this out throughout the country and we also need to take care of the border, and secure that border. kristin: kick, i want to ask you about the immigration plan that president trump put forward earlier this week. you support it or large suppo s supports-- parts of it.
9:14 am
a lot of your republican colleague do not or tempered in enthusiasm when talking about it. i'm curious, is there room for movement here? are people like you, president trump, could they convince some republicans to get behind it? >> yeah, i think there is. you know, i don't know anybody who's not for finding people and letting people in that are going to be the most helpful to this country. but especially because he keeps familial relations there's a significant portion of people who can come in that way. i think there's some movement, i think there's some negotiation to be had. i view this as a first step and i just-- my only issue, i don't want this discussion of legal immigration to distract from illegal immigration problems. kristin: so maybe some movement with republicans, as speaker pelosi says it's dead on arrival. i have a got to leave it there. leland: warnings to airliners,
9:15 am
iran, run the risk of being, quote, misidentified. jennifer griffin with us on this ominous warning. >> absolutely, ominous warning. a senior official briefed reporters the crisis is far from over. this is an incredibly serious situation, he said. we take it seriously and i can assure you they, the iranians should, too. with the u.s.s. abraham lincoln now in the gulf, u.s. officials say they've seen signs tehran is getting the message. some of the missiles that they say iran had loaded onto at least two ships have been removed. that according to defense officials. meantime, foreign passport holders working with exxon-mobile have started evacuationing an oil field in basra, and that follows from the embassy in baghdad, the warning to the flights, the u.s.s. vince
9:16 am
sent mistake an iranian passenger jet for a war plane, and the vincent was protecting. and president trump is angry with his national security team. >> they put out so many false messages that iran is totally confused. i don't know, that might be a good thing. >> the president has offered to negotiate with the iranians, a message delivered through the swiss, who represent the u.s. in tie ran. the u.s. pulled out of the nuclear deal a year ago and listed the iranian guard corps as a terrorist group, raising fears that iraq could be the site of a proxy war between the u.s. and iran. secretary of state pompeo reportedly told iraqi leaders you're either with us or stand out of the way. some lawmakers received this,
9:17 am
what led the u.s. to believe that iran was going to use iraq. and secretary obama, and others on tuesday, leland. leland: what are your sources telling about the intelligence that the iranians were looking for a preemptive strike on u.s. interests? >> i can tell you that the military believes that they had several threats. the request to move the abraham lincoln and descend the b-52 bombers, they mobilized them in hours from louisiana to the golf. that's quick movement for the u.s. military. u.s. central command believed they had several threat streams, including conferences with sulmani telling shia groups to attack in iraq and satellite photos that have not been declassified, but which they claim showed missiles. leland: you make the point that
9:18 am
you move b-52's within 50 hours, the abraham moves that was only two weeks early. all the things that the u.s. military's not doing. we're not seeing a massive buildup in the middle east. you don't see ships headed over with the divisions of tanks and seeing them lined up at fort bragg sending the delta force there. none of these things are happening. >> there are certain things we don't see that are happening in terms of preps. and even the leak of 120,000 troops going to the middle east, that was really floated out there to give a sense that we're serious. you really have a sense, i think, as the pentagon reporter right now, that we are being used as part of the messaging. and so, what the reality is, i do believe that the military themselves believe that they saw worrying signs. with as that a misread on the part of the iranians thinking that the u.s. was about to strike? there are some reports this week that this is-- this was miscommunication and that the intelligence has been a
9:19 am
bit confused. but what i can tell you is that it doesn't seem like the tension is ratcheting down given some statements from the white house in the last 24 hours. leland: at least not yet. we'll watch through the weekend. jennifer griffin, thanks so much. kristin. kristin: vice-president joe biden is set to speak in the city of brotherly love in less than an hour. we'll take you done to philly ahead. alright, i brought in ensure max protein... ...to give you the protein you need with less of the sugar you don't (grunti)g i'll take that.

9:24 am
the candidate that could win those voters that went over to president trump in 2016, those blue collar, working class folks who voted for the president and he thinks by proving to folks he could win pennsylvania he could win those folks back to you -- back. take a look at the quinnipiac poll, he has a double-digit lead over president trump in pennsylvania. and that's the largest of any of the democratic contenders. and we have in philadelphia, this is senator chris coons of delaware, you're holding the seat that the vice-president held for so many years. explain what you think, what you expect to hear from the vice-president, former vice-president? >> well, i expect we are going to hear from joe biden, very optimistic, very positive message about his campaign and how he really hopes to bring back the strength the middle class in pennsylvania and the
9:25 am
country. we know him initially as scranton joe, delaware's joe and then the nation's vice-president and i think as the most compelling candidate for president on behalf of my part of the democratic party. >> already, we're seeing shots of progressive candidates, going after biden. there are thoughts he's not progre progressive enough to win this election. >> joe biden knows more world leaders and more personal experience in global affairs, in foreign policy than any other candidate running for president. he's someone who served as vice-president for eight years and i know he'll be running on the record of the obama-biden administration. for those who say that's not progressive enough, i'd ask what they were able to accomplish so far. some of them have served as long as he has and yet, can't point to the same sorts of accomplishments, whether it's in advancing lbgtq rights, climate
9:26 am
change and and i think we'll see him running in the general election. >> lots of talks about vice-presidential pick and some are talking about kamala harris from california being a great vp pick and she shot back, that biden would be a good vp pick for her. what do you think? >> my respect for her on the committee, she's agile and turn of phrase on her part. it's too early to talk about who is who's running mate. polls go up and down. as president trump learned in his race for the presidency, there were lots of times when certain candidates were counted in, counted out and things ultimate i will turned out differently than initially expected to. i think that joe biden will be a strong candidate through this entire race, but i don't think it's time for us to talk about any other candidates joining him on a future ticket. >> reporter: thank you for
9:27 am
joining us, senator coons. leland you heard it there, senator coons one of the first to endorse the former vice-president and he's about to speak in a few moments. leland: and part of the speech, we're hearing that the former vice-president would say he would be president to everyone and backed -- we'll be back to philadelphia when the former vice-president takes the stage. bryan, thanks. kristin: president trump lifting steel and aluminum tariffs on canada and mexico, as the trade war with china faces an uncertain future. for insight, let's turn to the former trade representative during george w. bush and bill clinton's administrations and senior trade advisor. thank you for providing your insight. i want to start talking about joe biden. he made controversial comments
9:28 am
two weeks ago saying that he believed that china was not big competition for the united states and was not a threat to the u.s. economy. your thoughts. >> i think i know where former vice-president biden is coming from, which is a different take than the trump administration has taken with respect to the trade negotiations, but china is the big 600-pound gorilla for taking on our economy and hence the reason why the president, president trump's administration has taken these 301 actions and pressing the chinese for a trade deal. kristin: we saw the attempt to make a trade deal fall apart and then president trump sauys he's going to meet with x jinping at the g20. and believes that he will be able to tell the american people if he's able to reach a deal with china in three, four weeks.
9:29 am
do you think it's a realistic time frame? >> i think it's a realistic possibility. and i think we're coming off a week, with the announcement last night and then the whole idea that when we thought we had a china deal a week, almost a week ago and yet, the administration's made very clear we're going to be back at the negotiating table as early as next week, i'm optimistic that that three week to four-week time frame up to the g20 is a time frame that they could possibly reach a deal. kristin: i that it's good news that you think that for all the farmers and companies feeling the pinch, but now a lot of companies are we're at the point where it's going to be felt and the tariffs are going to be felt by the consumers, macy's and walmart coming out. pop up a statement by the cfo who said increased tariffs will increase prices to are consumers, and that kind of contrasts something that president trump tweeted earlier this week. he said there's no reason for the u.s. consumer to pay the
9:30 am
tariffs, which take effect on china today, that's what he said when the tariffs went into effect. so which is it? are consumers going to, you know, who is going to pay this? >> consumers will pay the increased cost because what the tariffs are in effect, are taxes. and tariffs hit consumers because producers raise costs when they are hit with paying those higher taxes at the border and that's just the reality. what i fear is that the next tranche of tariffs that may go into effect as early as july, the tranche four tariffs will be the most detrimental because they'll hit what i call the big box store, having the big box store effect, which is all consumer items in those big box stores will be subject to the hike in 25% tariffs if they go into effect. >> and that's happening at the time that parents and families
9:31 am
are doing back to school shopping. >> precisely. >> the consumers will definitely feel it. >> through july through the summer and into the fall, yes. kristin: let's hope it doesn't come to that, but we appreciate your predictions nonetheless. thank you so much. >> thank you, kristin. kristin: leland. leland: a great conversation there. we check back in philadelphia as we await former vice-president joe biden, we'll see if he mentions tariffs, china and the american dream. break down his message when we come back. with licensed agents available 24/7. it's not just easy. it's having-a-walrus-in-goal easy! roooaaaar! it's a walrus! ridiculous! yes! nice save, big guy! good job duncan! way to go!

9:36 am
and other great places to listen to mr. knowles. the last time you were with us, michael, you were talking about julian castro who was announcing his run that day and you said that that announcement was about as significant as what you had for breakfast. we'll let the viewers decide how true your prognostications were. what do you think of the vice-president's race, more significant than your breakfast order? >> i think much more significant than my breakfast order. my prediction is correct, because until you said his name, i had forgotten. and the vice-president, when you look at the national polls, the individual polls, michigan, wisconsin, he's up 8 to 10 points over trump if the election were today, joe biden will win possibly in a landslide. leland: it's almost like we planned this segment because we actually have one of those polls
9:37 am
from pennsylvania, the former vice-president's home state. and he's up by almost ten points, depending on which poll you look at over president trump. what has happened to all the blue collar voters that slipped from obama to trump, now flipping back to biden? where is the-- where has the republicans lost their way on this? >> well, joe biden is going into this race right now looking pretty clean. he's been out of politics for a few years, nobody has really been attacking him for anything other than giving people back massages and smelling their hair. so he's going in with some advantage. nobody has hit him on his weaknesses. he's a liar, he's something of a unctuous, and corrupt in some of his son's dealings with china and ukraine. leland: i would say significant
9:38 am
allegations, i'm not sure any have been proven yet. >> fair enough. leland: and the going thought in politics, you don't hit somebody on their weaknesses, hit them on their strengths. joe biden's strength is the eyed idea to connect to the middle class, and rides the amtrak from delaware and talk to somebody in an ice cream shop better than anybody else. his message when he takes the stage is president for everyone. he's framing this as biden versus trump and not talking about the nomination for the democratic party. do you feel as though that's a little premature or everyone get the graphics going of biden versus trump? >> certainly it's pro premature, there are 22 candidates in this race and probably 22 more before it's over. you want to hit him on connection to voters. the other strength he's campaigning on he has so much
9:39 am
experience been in politics for 50 years, he's been in office since he was 26 years old. and i think this is the real place that eventually president trump could hit him on if he wins the nomination, which is that in all of these 50 years, joe biden does not have a banner accomplishment to his name. he's been in office for 50 years, what has he done? donald trump's been in office for two years and had a relatively very successful presidency. i think that's where you'll be able to see the distinction. leland: and also, it seems as though the president is laying out trying to draw the distinction on china, and we hear china, china, china and we know that mr. biden down played that before. we'll check the prognostications next time we have you on and see if you're still batting 100. >> good to see you, leland. leland: catch fox news sunday tomorrow, chris wallace has an interview with candidate amy

>> you do not see this every day. there it goes. friday bomb squads blew up the live ammunition from an f-16 fighter jet that crashed through the roof of a warehouse in southeast los angeles. the crash happened one day earlier. the pilot reported hydraulic problems. you can see the hole in the warehouse, and lost control of the aircraft. there were no serious injuries and we're told the pilot is in good condition. w
9:45 am
wow. kristin: boeing is now saying that it's completed that software update for its 737 max planes in the wake of a congressional hearing with the acting f.a.a. administrator about the aircraft. for more on this we're bringing in rob mark, senior editor at flying magazine and publisher of jetline.com. rob mark, thank you for coming in. let's start with what boeing is saying, they're saying they fixed the update. is that enough to clear the 737 max to get up and flying? >> not by a long shot. the f.a.a. is under pressure from congress that they may have given boeing a little too much leeway in the early stages of the development of this airplane and there's worldwide pressure on boeing and f.a.a. to make sure this is really going to fix
9:46 am
the problem. kristin: and so, you know, in addition to the software issues, some members of congress, during this hearing this week, were very critical of the training for the pilots and some of the pilots themselves. in fact, they blamed the pilots, some lawmakers, for the ethiopian and indonesian crashes. do you agree with that line of thinking? >> not really. i think what we always find in an accident it's not usually one event, it's a chain of events. yes, the pilots were there in the airplane trying to wrestle control of the airplane back, you know, but again, they're not here to defend themselves, but again, it's only a piece of the puzzle. we didn't even know that this system that went crazy even existed until after the lion air crash last year. kristin: there were just so many concerns that were brought up in this hearing and i want to share one more of them with you, and then get your take on the other

side of it. it's from congressman sam graves of missouri. listen to this. >> that's what scares me, in all of this, is climbing on an aircraft, on an airline, you know, that is outside the u.s. jurisdiction. i know what we have in the u.s. and i know what we're capable of and i know the quality of our pilots and the quality and what they have to go through to get to that point. kristin: he's essentially saying that he potentially some day would be fine with getting on planes that are checked and certified and you know, checked out by the f.a.a. not not so much getting op flights that are originating from outside the united states. is that a legitimate concern in your mind? >> well, i think everybody that is involved in aviation knows that the training and the regulation of u.s. carriers, of western europe, australia, parts of asia, are absolutely top-notch, they're the same.
9:48 am
but there are places in the world that have, you know, less than spectacular safety records. there are some of the traffic in africa, some parts of asia, but again, that's the regulation on a local basis. i think we all just have to kind of, you know, look at the airline, we're thinking about flying on, and not simply choose the cheapest when we're outside of our region of comfort. kristin: here we go headed into memorial day weekend, the start of the busy summer travel season. how much is this, the grounding of all of these planes, going to impact travelers? or has that loss already sort of been absorbed by the airlines? >> oh, i think it's going to have an effect. just in the last month i've been on two different airlines and i've had two different flights just canceled at the last minute. it takes some scrambling, but unfortunately, if you want a system that's safe, that stays safe and we know we have some weaknesses right now that we're trying to address, we're just
9:49 am
going to have to put up with it. kristin: i think that folks are okay with a few delays if it means staying safe. thank you so much. >> you betcha. kristin: leland. leland: the fbi's new push to track down fugitive cop killers. we'll be right back.

as number of competitors are relaunching their own campaigns in an effort to try to pull away from the pack. it is a tall order in a field that large. welcome to america's news headquarters from washington. i'm kristin fisher. leland: there's about or perhaps even more 2020 dems than there are -- [laughter] leland: bide on the take the stage in a few minutes. there's a choir, we will keep an eye on that. looked at his speech, prepared remarks, talking about being the president for everybody, talking about being united, bryan llenas on the ground there in philadelphia, if you look bryan
10:00 am
there's big jumbotrons, that seems, bryan of a preview of how biden wants to frame this, correct? >> that's exactly right, united is the keyword today and we saw on the excerpts that have been released for speech. as a matter of fact, let's look at the excerpt that is we've now gotten from what we expect to hear from the former vice president in his speech at any moment, quote, if the american people want a president to add to our division, to lead with clinch fist, close hand and hard heart to demonize opponents and spew hatred, they don't need me, they already have a president who does just that, i'm running to offer our country, democrats, republicans and independents a different path, the latest quinnipiac poll shows that biden has 11-point lead over president in crucial battleground state over pennsylvania. biden is the only democratic candidate to hold double-digit lead in this state.
10:01 am
the same quinnipiac shows that 70% of pennsylvanians nonwhite voters would support the democratic candidate over a republican and that's important because in order for biden to win he's going to have to increase black voter turnout here in philadelphia which fell short in 2016 for hillary clinton. not just biden, any democrat nominee, eventual nominee would have to do just that. trump won less than 1 percentage point since 1988 and the latest fox news polling, though, show that is biden's lead over the other democratic contenders is growing. he's at 35% up from 31% in march. senator bernie sanders is a distant second with 17% down from 23% and as sanders poll numbers decrease, attacks against biden have increased and this week sanders criticized biden for taking middle-ground approach for climate change that isn't progressive enough and
10:02 am
sanders campaign, biden doesn't want to speak ill of democratic candidates, we are seeing progressives and others taking shots on biden, we will see if he ratchets up the talk during speech or going to stay true to what he said he's going to do which is keep the attention and the focus on trump. >> that's the real advantage of being the front runner, you don't have to punch down as much as you can focus on the general than you have to do on winning the primaries. i'm interested in that crowd, bryan, as you talk to folks there, are these folks who are committed and they are trying to figure out which democratic candidates they will get behind? >> the people i've spoken to are fans of former vice president of joe biden, it's a beautiful day, you can do a lot of different things in philadelphia right now. leland: good day. >> these people have chosen to come out here and stand and listen to former vice president who has already been out there, we saw him at the pittsburgh
10:03 am
rally, we saw him here speaking to people over the last few things, from what i've gathered already, they see biden as the person who is most likely to beat trump. this is about beating trump, that's what i've heard from the people that i've spoken so far. >> real quick, have you met anybody who voted for president trump in 2016 and now i'm team biden for 2020? >> i have not. but hopefully biden, yeah, biden -- i haven't seen it here but that's what biden wants to do. leland: he's trying to those crowds, especially the firefighters you pointed out in pittsburgh. bryan llenas on the ground, bryan, we will come to you as former vice president takes the stage, thanks, kristin. >> all right, so for more on, this let's bring in political panel, former communication's director for health care at the department of health and human services, megyn smith and democratic strategist and
10:04 am
millennial nathan ruben. as i'm watching those images of the stage where joe biden is about to speak, i can't help to wonder why he didn't do that and give a speech like that with a good-size crowd, nice sunshine, big banners projecting message, why didn't he do that for official campaign launch? >> hi, kristin, for the fast few weeks joe biden has been going around the country talking to voters and hearing their concerns and talking about his vision for the campaign and for the country and one thing that's been totally clear is two different worlds and that is the dc twitter and actual american primary voters and dc twitter and the media have totally written biden off before he began and underestimated him and guess what, american voters and
10:05 am
democratic primary voters love him and they trust him and that's why you're seeing him lead in double digits against match-up against president trump. >> very large lead in the polls right now, nathan, let me ask you, the vice president has said repeatedly that he does not want to attack other democrats in the race but we saw, you know, things get testy between a few candidates, senator kamala harris said that the 1994 crime bill that biden supported did contribute in mass incarceration and senator bernie sanders said that biden is not one of the most progressive democrats. still, are we begin to go hit the point where we are going see the claws come out in the democratic field? >> well, i think just like with any other campaign, whoever is up in front has target on their back and that's why you are starting to see some of these, i guess, aggressive comments coming out those who are
10:06 am
trailing vice president joe biden, i agree with the idea that people in the base of the democratic party may have not have anticipated the support that vice president biden but to formerly, the demographics of the democratic party are older, white, less college degrees than people would think. i understand the support for vice president biden but i think if you look at the poll again, there are 3 people who have improved on their numbers since the last poll and that's mayor pete buttigieg, elizabeth warren and vice president biden, i think the 3 that i just mentioned will continue to rise, it'll be interesting primary. >> let's talk about mayor pete buttigieg since you bringing it up, town hall for him on fox news tomorrow for him. mayor, what does mayor pete need to do tomorrow night to continue to keep up with that momentum?
10:07 am
>> sure, so he's incredibly impressive candidate, run a smart campaign. i think it's an incredibly smart move that he's holding town hall with fox after having another all-star moment in town hall and this week he rolled out a number of policies and he did those within the context of 3 key values, of freedom, security and democracy, so i care about health care a lot, so instead of just announcing, hey, here is my health care plan which i'm really excited for him to do dig at fox's town hall tomorrow night, he couched that in the context of freedom. he's talking about why you can't have freedom if you're worried about not being able to access health care because you're going to lose your house or you can't eat because you're paying so much for health care, so i think we are going to see him talk about -- >> all right. >> all of the policies that he's rolling out within the values
10:08 am
that he's been talking about for the past few months. >> i have to leave it there. thank you so much. be shuirn tomorrow at 7:00 p.m. eastern town hall with mayor pete buttigieg, chris wallace will be moderating, it's going to be -- i think it's going to be feisty, i think a god exchange. >> pretty interesting. >> chris also has exclusive interview with minnesota senator and presidential candidate amy klobuchar tomorrow on fox news sunday, check local listings for time and channel, busy day for chris wallace tomorrow. >> busy, indeed, immigration playing huge part of 2020 presidential race, you imagine that coming up at town hall as well especially this proposal by the trump administration to deal with the overcrowded shelters at the southern border, now the plan is to potentially relocate migrant families to cities around the country, jeff paul with us on how this is going to work and what cities are on the list, hi, jeff. >> hi, leland, the plans are still developing but some law enforcement officials in south
10:09 am
florida saying they've been notified they could start receiving migrants, sheriffs in broward, notified their communities could see up to 1,000 migrants per month in 2 weeks, border officials saying at the moment they're only developing plans to fly migrant families away from the southern border. cities across the country as they wait for their immigration court hearings, florida governor ron desantis who is a vocal supporter of president trump says his state cannot accommodate, quote, dumping migrants into florida and will fight any such plans. >> this was not something that came down from the white house, this was something that came out of the agencies. and, you know, times this stuff -- this stuff happens and so it's going to ultimately be something i'm going to talk with the president about. >> well, governor desantis feels the move could tax state's resources, not all politicians share the views, missouri congressman is on the house homeland security committee
10:10 am
speaking of fox news about an hour ago, he's not against migrants coming into his community, but there needs to be a specific plan before that happens. >> kansas city and many other cities will be becoming, i certainly would be certainly and would use whatever i had to create a welcoming environment, i'm not sure that without a strategy and without knowing, you know, some time in advance in preparation that we would be advantage to them. >> the interim border patrol sector chief in san diego says migrants are willing flown into his location from texas but added cdp is still considering whether or not to add flight that is could include the detroit, buffalo and miami areas. leland. leland: already phoenix has become overcrowded with the amount of migrants that have been moved up there. jeff paul with us from our west coast bureau whether he recollects watch this as the plans develop, jeff, thanks so
10:11 am
much. kristin. >> as tensions rise between the u.s. and iran the federal aviation administration is warning commercial airlines flying over the persian golf and planes run the risk of being, quote, misidentified, kitty logan joins us with that and more, katie. >> hi, kristin, the flights have not been rerouted, airlines are being asked to show caution in that region. amid the rising tensions interesting to note that iran's foreign minister today emphatically said that iran does not want a war with the u.s. and also something that president trump has said, he said also that he does not want a war with iran but what we are seeing some sense of military build-up in the region. abraham lincoln in northern arabian sea and forces to be on high alert. there are some obvious concerns about potential u.s.-iran conflict.
10:12 am
iran also talking tough in recent days saying that no country should have the illusion, it's accused the u.s. government of politically game-playing but president trump says iran poses a threat to u.s. troops and interest in the region. interesting to note also today american oil workers employed by exxon mobile have began evacuating from iraq, iraq could get in conflict with u.s. and iran. no immediate danger to staff, they've put extra security measures in place, worked on those continuing but also in iraq the u.s. has previously asked all nonessential staff to lead after attacks on all tankers in the gulf which iran is suspected of carrying out. iran denies any involvement.
10:13 am
, of course, relations have soured between u.s. and iran since the u.s. pulled out of the 2016 nuclear deal and since then, the u.s. has, of course, imposed additional sanctions on iran, kristin. >> kitty logan, thank you, leland. leland: with that former cia station chief head agency middle east operation daniel hoffman, can't think of anybody better to talk about this with, reports now that the iranians have unloaded the missiles from their boats that started the whole crisis in the beginning, encouraging sign or too early? >> no, encouraging sign. i think iran is trying to deescalate, stated publicly that iran has no interest whatsoever with war with the united states. let's remember that this began between iran threatened enrich uranium to levels if they did not receive sanctions within 60 days, that accompanied other threats in europe about collaboration of flow of my grents and drugs into the middle
10:14 am
east from the middle east to europe and the threat of kinetic action against the united states. that's what caused concern. >> you think about -- there was a lot of bluster in term of the reaction, we will move the abraham lincoln, turns out it was going to middle east two weeks early, we will move cable -- capable bombers, this is massive military build-up by the united states or massive response in. >> no, the one thing i learned the department of defense plans for every kind of scenario, when something goes sideways they pull plan off the shelves and present to the president for executive decisions, i think without -- >> fair to say this isn't the red alert plan, this is the let's get ready plan or let's send a message plan? >> this was a clear message of deterrence to iran, if you take a shot at us with shiite proxy malitia, there would be a
10:15 am
response. >> one way iranians often respond is with massive public demonstrations which are generally sort of dial-up, dial down the anger by not revolutionary guard but radical elements there. what do you make of the fact that on friday there was no mass death to america, death to israel protest in tehran? >> frankly not a whole lot, i think they could pull the card out when they need to, they are portraying the united states as the aggressor, that's for a couple of reasons, first as negotiating tactic with the europeans and the chinese, let's remember the foreign ministers is in china trying to negotiate relief from sanctions with iran's largest trading partner but the other thing about iran is they want to make the united states out to be the cause, not their own policy. >> reporting that right before the iran nuclear deal with the iranians near collapse, the sanctions have gotten it back to that point yet or are we still a
10:16 am
little bit away? >> i think that the best pundits that i follow and the best analysts would argue that the iranian economy is worse off now than it was then. they are in free fall, their currency is in free fall but regardless, i think what matters most their population had rising expectations when the deal was signed and now we are seeing that it's not working out so well for them. >> so could you read this as iran really hasn't been in headlines much, north korea getting so much of the attention and now iran sort of throws temper tantrum in a way to get attention and get a payoff in order to turn the tensions down? >> i would argue this was anticipated. look, the sanctions, we've got maximum pressure, this is how they do it by threatening us and a little bit nuclear black hail to europeans and we are responding with deterrence, what i see going forward, diplomacy with european allies and continued deterrence. leland: daniel hoffman to talk about in a region that you know all too well and spent a lot of
10:17 am
time, good to see you. >> thank you. leland: kristin. >> stunning victory, australia's conservative prime minister scott morrison wins first full-term in office and party third term, opponent who had been favored to win form early conceding just earlier today. >> while there's still millions of vote to count, an important to be finalized, and so in national interest short while ago, i called scott morrison and congratulate him. >> prime minister morrison is vow to go lower taxes and improve the economy and calling his win, quote, a miracle.
10:18 am
leland: somebody hopes to be giving victory speech here in, what, 16 months or so, former vice president joe biden takes the stage in philadelphia. we are back to talk about his message and how he is framing this already as biden versus trump. to fight infections,

tenney with us, not universally loved direction but certainly party behind it. >> it was interesting, he's not surprised that they are going after and even called the charge that he lie today congress laughable. in an interview with bill hemmer, ag said that democrats are likely going after him because they are worried about his investigations into the beginnings of the trump-russia probe might turn up and despite criticisms from the left that he's trying to protect the president, barr said he's concerned by the lack of answers he's gotten about the government's actions leading up to and during the russia investigation. >> no one has really looked at it. i think there's a misconception out there that we know a lot about what happened. the fact of the matter is, bob mueller did not look at the government's activities, he was looking at whether or not the trump campaign had conspired
10:24 am
