divided in its opinion of the american leader. in 2018 there were big demonstrations both pro and anti-trump. we expect more of those today. now, the anti-trump movement appears to be stoked in part by the layer of london, sadiq kahn. he wrote in an op ed that theresa may should issue a powerful rejection not of the u.s. as a country but the office of the presidency but of trump and the far right agenda he embodies. the president responded. he said sadiq kahn who by all accounts has done a terrible job as mayor of london has been foolishly nasty to the visiting president of the united states, by far the most important ally of the united kingdom. he's a stone-cold loser who should focus on crime in london, not me. so there you have that. meanwhile, road closures will be the order of the day here in london. with those demonstrations that we talked about. also, official events taking precedent including the visit to buckingham palace. one more nugget i want to pass

border, he will increase tariffs until it reaches 25% in october, that will be quite a summer with a trade like mexico. it could jeopardize ratification of the new nafta deal. one senator says he doesn't see it happening. >> i don't think the president is going to impose the tariffs. he's been known to play with fire, not live hand grenades. if he slaps a 25% tariff on mexico, it's going to tank the american economy. >> reporter: mexico's president tweeting a reminder over the weekend, saying mexico is the american people's friend. it will be interesting to see how border states like texas react. mexico is their largest trading partner. carley: thank you so much. so will the president's threat of tariffs finally make mexico act? rob: acting homeland security secretary, kevin mackalene says mexico must step up and do more.

>> we have a situation that we must address in partnership with mexico. a group of 1,036 migrants walked across the border in an organized movement out of shelters. nobody on the mexican side stopped that. we have people moving all the way up. there are natural choke points. the movement is overt. it's happening on commercial bus lines that are owned and controlled by cartels. we need mexico to do more. the crossings are happening on a 1150-mile stretch of the border. this is a controlable border. we need them to be stopped before they make the route to the u.s. carley: mexico's president made it clear his government has a plan if tariffs do take effect but remained optimistic, tweeting we want nothing or no one to break our beautiful and

sacred friendship. rob: the president called out russia over deadly bombings in syria. the president urging three american adversaries to stop the violence ahead of the state visit to london. the president tweeting hearing word that russia, syria and to a lesser extent iran are bombing the hell out of the province in syria and killing many innocent civilians, the world is watching this butchery, what is the purpose? what will it get you? stop. the u.n. says 200,000 people have left the area since the air strikes began in april. the situation in syria continues to deteriorate. a north korean official believe to be sentenced to hard labor is spotted out with kim jong un. this is a picture of him attending a concert with the dictator. a south korean newspaper reported the former nec negotiar was sentenced to forced hard labor after the failed summit with president trump. the report was never confirmed.

carley: a fox news alert. here's a live look in london at the winfield house where president trump is expected to arrive any moment. rob: there he is getting off the plane a little while ago, air force one arriving in london about an hour ago, the president kicking off a crucial three-day state visit to the u.k. what can we expect? carley: here to weigh in is the

director of the margaret thatcher center of the heritage foundation, nile gardner. the president is a brexit supporter. will his presence in london at this critical time have any influence in terms of negotiations and the future of the country? >> yes, i think president trump's visit to the u.k. is a high impact visit in terms of british politics, the future of the special relationship but also especially the future of brexit and president trump has already weighed in very significantly on the brexit issue. of course, president trump is a huge supporter of brexit. he's a big backer of britain leaving the european union. and he has made a number of statements already in advance of this trip, saying that he believes that britain should walk away from the e.u. without a deal, if the european union does not make major concessions to great britain of. he's also said that britain shouldn't pay a penny of the

$50 billion demanded by the european union to leave the e.u. unless the e.u. offers a very good deal to britain. of course, e.u. is has not issued or offered a good deal for the british people. i think that president trump's intervention is having a big impact here on the ground in london and you are already seeing many of the contenders to take over from theresa may as british prime minister strongly backing what is known as a no deal brexit, unless the e.u. makes concessions. i think that british politicians echoing what president trump is saying, president trump is very much i think in sync with where the next generation of conservative leaders are here in the united kingdom. rob: let's look at who is up in contention to take over theresa may's job. we've got a list here. borris johnson there top left and then jeremy hunt and you move along there, dominic groff. i think this is almost in a way

some of these conservatives are anti-brexit and some voted to stay. some voted to leave. is this almost like another referendum on brexit based on who wins this election? >> i think it's significant that most of the leadership contenders, and there are about 15 of them at the moment are strong brexit supporters and even those among the contenders who voted against brexit in the referendum, almost all of the candidates are supporting brexit right now. and i think the big issue within the conservative party leadership contest is the issue of a no deal brexit. that's the dividing line. borris johnson and some of the leading brexiteres are calling for a no deal brexit if the e.u. doesn't offer a good deal for the united kingdom. that is the clear dividing line and president trump is very much making clear his own views on

this and his view is that a no deal brexit is better than a bad deal. i think the president is absolutely 100% right on this. a bad deal, a bad brexit deal is not in britain's national interest and britain will do just fine under a no deal brexit and britain will be able to move forward with signing free trade agreements with countries across the world including with the united states and president trump certainly has offered the prospect of a massive trade deal between the u.s. and the u.k., between the world's fifth largest and largest economies. carley: so this state visit is all about highlighting the bond between our two countries. but the president is walking into the u.k. where there are massive protests taking place, some lawmakers including jeremy corbin said they're going to boycott this big dinner that's also going to be taking place in the country. how will this negative tone potentially impact this whole meeting, this whole massive meeting that's scheduled to take place over the next three days?

>> yeah, i think there will be some protests on the treats of f london. i think you'll see them the largest extent tomorrow morning. i think the protests will be somewhat limited in scale. you're not going to see hundreds of thousands of people taking to the streets of london. and i think that these protests are led by the far left, the anti-american far left. they're backed by the socialist leader, jeremy corbin. backed by the absolutely awful london mayor, sadiq kahn who has a a far left agenda for this city. sadiq kahn is a deeply unpopular figure in the u.k. at this time and president trump called out sadiq kahn this morning in a tweet, describing him as a stone cold loser. i think tens of mil millions of would agree with agree these will be far left anti-american

demonstrations. the vast majority woul won't tae place in those protests. rob: brand-new details on an out-of-control cruise ship that slammed into a tourist boat. the call for help made by the ship's captain before the collision occurred. carley: texas gives the green light to a new red light camera ban. is this protecting your privacy or taking a shot at safety? ♪ now all i see is you. ♪ [music playing] (vo) this is jerry. jerry has a membership to this gym, but he's not using it. and he has subscriptions to a music service he doesn't listen to and five streaming video services he doesn't watch. this is jerry learning that he's still paying for this stuff he's not using. he's seeing his recurring payments in control tower in the wells fargo mobile app. this is jerry canceling a few things. booyah.

to shoulder at times of adversity. you have to call them out when you think they're wrong. there's so many things about president trump's policies that are the anti-thesis about our values in london and of the country. >> reporter: president trump tweeted sadiq kahn who by all accounts has done a terrible job as mayor of london has been foolishly a nasty to the visiting president of the united states, by far the most important ally of the united kingdom. he is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in london, not me. security across london has been incredibly high, $35 million security will cost and the police have brought in another 10,000 officers for the next few days. the giant blimp depicting president trump as a ba baby has been given permission to fly by sadiq kahn. thimany say this is ashort-sigh. the u.s. is the u.k.'s strongest ally. they're looking for president

presidential, being separated from the group. it wouldn't be such good optics to be there among the stage of 20 people. and if he's going to succeed, he needs to get the midwestern, middle and lower class swing states and he is sending that message right now that he's doing that and he's focused. rob: let's take a look at the poll of the democrats, this is where they line up right now. joe biden has a healthy lead, 35%, almost double of bernie sanders and then you go on down from there. but still, they all kind of congregated in this -- it is an important flies be with an early primary now. do you think he made the right move? >> i actually think that he has a problem skipping out on a state this early. not only because california has so many delegates to be won this early in the primary process, but also because it's the outer-most left post for the democratic party out there. this is where li liberal and progressive ideas were on full
