12:00 pm
>> dana: the good news is, he's donating money to st. jude's, shiner's hospital and the wounded warrior. thanks for joining us. i'll see you on "the five." i'm dana perino. here's shep. >> it's noon on the west coast. 3:00 at the white house where we're minutes away now from a high stakes meeting about president trump's mexican tariff threat. the president is facing a possible republican revolt on capitol hill over the potential tax hikes on you and me. live coverage from fox ahead. also, mystery in paradise. three americans died within days of each other at the same resort. the heros of d-day didn't just storm the beaches. they also dropped from the sky. fox news hears from an american paratrooper that landed behind enemy lines 75 years ago. >> people might think we're heros, but the heros are here in
12:01 pm
the graves. those are the heros. >> shepard: the heros are everywhere there today. reporting begins now. republicans in congress do not want tariffs on mexican goods. they're making that crystal clear. setting up what could become the biggest collision with president trump yet. analysts warn americans will pay the price. if the president threatens mexican tariff plan takes effect. vice president pence is scheduled to meet with mexico's foreign minister on this very matter about a half hour from now. president trump is demanding a tariff on all products from mexico, everything, unless and until that country does more to stop migrants headed to the united states border. the plan is set to take effect in five days. remember, a tariff is a tax that
12:02 pm
somebody has to pay. economists warn the proposed taxes would cover products from fruits and vegetables to cars and computers. the president spoke about it today at the white house meeting during a visit to ireland. he doubled down on the need for mexico to make changes. but he says he still believes a deal could be on the table. >> mexico could stop it. otherwise, we won't be able to do business. it's a very simple thing. i think they will stop it. i think they want to do something. i think they want to make a deal. they sent their top people to try to do it. we'll see what happens today. >> so there's a chance the tariffs will not take effect. either because mexico comes around or because president trump backs down. which he says clearly today he will not. no bluff he says. of course, republicans along with democrats on the hill could block the president's proposed tariffs. if they take effect, mexico
12:03 pm
could retaliate and that could be expensive for consumers and farmers because mexico is america's largest trading partner by a mile. more than $650 billion each year. we have team fox coverage. first to rich edson live from the white house. rich? >> president trump argues the mexican government needs to do more to prevent migrants from coming through their country and tariffs is the right incentive to do so. that's why the foreign minister here meeting with mike pence and mike pompeo. the u.s. customs border protection warned of a full blown emergency that they apprehended and denied entry to 144,000 migrants last month alone. those are totals that officials say they have not seen in more than a dozen years and a surge that they say is overwhelming
12:04 pm
u.s. government capacity. officials say more than 11,000 of those were unaccompanied children arriving at the u.s. certain border. officials say the migrants are primarily traveling through mexico and originaling in the northern triangle countries of g guatemala and el salvadorch. >> shepard: what are we hearing from mexico? >> mexican officials say tariffs are not the right thing to do because it would harm the government's ability to stop illegal migration through mexico. mexico says that what the area known as the northern triangle needs international aid. president trump has cut aid to those counties by saying they weren't supposed to do what they were supposed to with american aid so the u.s. wouldn't pay. the mexican president says
12:05 pm
they're optimistic they can reach an agreement. they have until monday. that's when the president will start the tariffs. shep? >> shepard: thanks, rich. thank you. so what about republicans on the hill? the majority of them say they stand against the tariffs. but would that actually block them if it comes to that? team fox coverage continues. david spunt live from capitol hill. david? >> good afternoon. it's interesting to see how this is playing out here on capitol hill. i spoke to several republican staffers. they're watching this closely. we're talking about allies of president trump. these are the people that he counts on in the house and senate. many are against this tariff policy. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell said this week that his republican colleagues have serious concerns about this plan senator ted cruz, a neighbor of mexico raised red flags and john kennedy of louisiana spoke to the president about his concerns
12:06 pm
sunday. listen. >> i told him i thought it was a mistake. i think there's some other alternatives this we can pursue to get our friends in mexico to understand that we've got a crisis. mexico doesn't have a crisis. they don't stop the folks from coming through. >> while the senate doesn't support his plans, it appears the republicans will. kevin mccarthy has a plan in the house to help this go through, but democrats have the majority there and they say some democrats are optimistic that things will work out. >> i feel confident that common sense will come out and we won't shoot ourselves. >> members in the house and senate were in recess last week. they're back for by. but many are hurrying back to
12:07 pm
their districts. several are going to the normandy commemorations tomorrow for the 75th number. but they're watching this very closely, shep, what happens at the white house in the next 30 minutes. >> shepard: david, what is the latest on democratic leaders? >> to no surprise, they're against the tariffs. nancy pelosi held a news conference. she says all she's seen is a tweet. she's seen no official paperwork other than the tweep that came out from president trump. when asked if she would possibly meet with president trump while in france, she said there's no plans to, but hinted that anything is possible, shep. >> shepard: democrats are clearly in block against this. republicans, yesterday, it was the senator from texas who said is there anybody for these tariffs? not a single one was. the question is not whether democrats are against it and republicans are against it. the question is will the republicans join the democrats and block them. that would be quite a thing. >> it would. >> shepard: so we don't know if
12:08 pm
that will happen? the word appears to be there's so much against it, so much against it in their districts that republicans might in this case actually tell the president no. >> it depends on who the republicans you talk to. mitch mcconnell, ted cruz, john cornyn have come out against this. senator chuck grassley yesterday was saying he had concerns. pat toomey said to be going in the path of disagreeing with the president. there's folks like tom tillis from north carolina, marco rubio that sometimes is against president trump on other things, he says the president is well-within his authority to issue the tariffs. is that you don't need many to bail for this to become a block. and the white house is doing away with important services for children that came to the united states without documents. the administration is cancelling establish glasses, legal aid and recreational actives including soccer for children in federal shelters. the feds say they're running out
12:09 pm
of money to deal with the number of migrants across the southern border. a spokesman says the administration is stopping for funding things deemed not necessary for life. a lawyer representing the children responded in "the washington post" that schooling and exercise are fundamental to the care of youngsters and said see you in court. the president is in his golf resort in ireland. he insisted brexit will not be a problem at all. of course, analysts warn a hard brexit or a brexit without rules could send economic shock waves across europe and create chaos at the border with ireland. the president is promise ago phenomenal trade deal with the u.k. once they leave the european union. edward lawrence is live with
12:10 pm
more on what the deal would look like. edward? >> shep, yeah, i talked with the man exclusively who is the united kingdom's trade representative. he will be negotiating the deal with the united states. dr. fox said the u.k. wants greater access to agriculture, tariffs lowered like ceramics coming into the united states. tariffed at 28%. he said the u.k. would be more relaxed or flexible on the rules and regulations in digital data than the european union is. he says he welcomed a trade deal. >> clearly it would be a boost if we can get access to new markets. it's a boost for our consumers. >> but he would not say it would be the two or three times greater than the current trade that is going on that president trump mentioned yesterday. the president anticipates a
12:11 pm
trade deal to be announced the moments or the days after brexit. now fox says that that is possible. it's possible that it could happen. however he does say that the ratification process is where the time will take. either in our house or their parliament. back to you, shep. >> shepard: ahead, commemorating 75 years since d-day. flyovers and a 21-gun salute. the big moments marking the allied invasion of nazi occupied france. plus -- >> a beautiful jump, beautiful flight. everything was perfect. >> a hero to jump from planes and landed in enemy lines tell their stories. our reporting continues on this wednesday afternoon. let's see, aleve is proven better on pain than tylenol extra strength. and last longer with fewer pills.

12:18 pm
it was the largest invasion in history. it was an emotional commemoration of that day, all the nations that took part brought together 75 years later. the guests of honor, 300 of the few surviving veterans of that day. if you had been 18 then, you'd be 93 today. the celebration was a tribute to the soldiers and the military. they read from diaries, memories from that fateful day despiring the fear felt by those that were so young as they charged the german guns on the beach for our freedom. >> you can't imagine the feeling with people who took part from our angle. >> it was quite a spectacle. there was a fly-by of planes. a gun salute, marching bands and leaders that came together to commemorate the event. although there was some celebrities and world leaders from the u.s., u.k., canada,
12:19 pm
france, australia and other allied nations, the real hear -- heros are the veterans. >> shepard: in the dead of night, hours before allied troops landed on normandy's shores, thousands of brave paratroopers dropped from the skies behind enemy lines. some of them thought it was a suicide mission. 75 years later, hundreds of parachutists today recreated that jump across northern france to honor the airborne soldiers that never came home. they used authentic c-47 transport planes. this was the scene over the skies. among those making the jump was 97-year-old d-day paratrooper tom rice. he says he spent six months with a physical trainer preparing for this very moment. in 1944, a bullet ripped through

his parachute on the way down. he managed to land safely. greg palkot reporting live from norm mandy. he spoke to a veteran from the air force. greg? >> like it was exactly 75 years ago at this moment, on the shower of normandy, all is quiet. but just in a few hours, all hell broke loose here on land, in the sea and in the air. we got a little bit more of the feel of that earlier today, a short distance from where we are. special force units re-enacting the scaling of hawking the cliff. the first ones in june 6, 1944, the u.s. paratroopers. they tried to catch the enemy
12:21 pm
unaware. unstead, their plans ran into a massive barrage of gun fire. take a listen of how this soldier felt them. >> we had 10 more minutes of flight. >> and anti-aircraft fire. >> yeah. >> so ten minutes you're going through this. >> we're saying let's get the hell out. >> yeah. >> now he's 94. he lives in charlotte. in fact, this is the first time he has come back to normandy since that time in 1944. he's uncomfortable a bit with the accolades. he's uncomfortable about calling him out as a hero. take a listen. >> i realize people might think we're heros. the heros are here in the grave. >> all in the graves. >> those are the heros. >> he went on for 37 months and
12:22 pm
got a medal of courage from the u.s. military. tomorrow the people behind me and these graves, 9,400 graves, will be honored and all those involved in the epic fight. back to you.

12:36 pm
and nathaniel holmes and cynthia day were found dead in their room after they missed their check out. they checked on the same day that miranda passed away. police found several bottles of blood pressure medication in the deceased room. the hotel said that heart problems could have been a factor in miranda's death as well. her family said that she was sick 15 years ago and had long since been medically cleared. >> it was at first a little confusing there was a strong parallel. then we were pretty alarmed by what seemed to be the implications. we don't know. there's questions, obviously. we don't know what is at the bottom of this. but it immediately caused serious concern for us. >> a doctor told us a toxicology report could say whether the one cause was caused by the same thing in all three cases but very unusual if it were random
12:37 pm
especially in the case of the couple that died in the same room. >> shepard: thanks, jackie. the former sheriff's deputy and school resource officer accused of doing nothing to stop a gunman from slaughters 17 people in school in parkland, florida appeared in court for the first time. the judge said scott peterson's bond at $102,000. he's facing charges that include child neglect and lying to investigators. if convicted, they could land him in prison the rest of his life. peterson's arrest comes after a 15-month investigation. found that he took cover outside the school for 48 minutes as the gun fire rang out and students screamed and later died. last year scott peterson told nbc news that he thought the shots were coming from outside and didn't realize someone was inside the building. the victim's parents are not buying it. >> it's clear to me he knew where the shots were coming
12:38 pm
from. it's clear he took a defensive possession and stayed there for 48 minutes even while other law enforcement went? . >> he needs to go to jail and he needs to serve a lifetime in prison for not going in that day and taking down a threat. >> his defense attorney calls the charges politically motivated blaming peterson when the only person to blame is the actual gunman. let's bring in dave arrenburg, state attorney from palm beach county. good of you to be here. thank you. they're taking shots at the prosecutors here. your thoughts on this. >> yeah, it's a tragic case, but the facts are compelling. you're dealing with not someone that didn't just rush in, but someone who hid 75 feet away, stayed there 48 minutes and prevented other law enforcement
12:39 pm
deputies from running into the building. trying to create a 500-foot perimeter. those are the allegations in the complaints. as far as this be -- saying it's political for the prosecutors to do this, the chief prosecutor there announced his retirement hours before the charges. so it's hard to say it's political. >> shepard: the defendant here is claiming that there was a communications error. because we all know there's been changes in the way school shootings have been handled over time, beginning with probably littleton, colorado and changes ongoing. he says it was communication. >> yeah, that is part of their defense. he's probably going to say the sheriff, the previous sheriff, removed from office by the governor, allowed the deputy to make up their own minds at the time. they had discretion. you have to put victims and you have to put hostages above your
12:40 pm
own safety. as far as communications being a problem, cool springs police ran in. they evaded the barrier that the deputy put up and they rushed in. they didn't seem to have the communication problem as deputy peterson did according to the complaint. >> in a sense, the charges that he was a coward legally speaking, how does that hold? >> i know he's being labelled the coward of broward, but that is not criminal. what is criminal possibly is child neglect, culpable negligence and perjury. it will cost him credibility amongst the jury and also shows consciousness of guilt. as far as child neglect, there's no press department here. you have to prove the police officer here was a caregiver. the statute in florida is broad enough that you could say that even though there's no press department for it yet. >> shepard: could they get a
12:41 pm
jury in broward for this? >> i think so. i think you may have some people believe that the officer is someone who tried his best, made the public opinions and is someone that is being unfairly accused. the facts in that criminal complaint are compelling. i do think you can get a jury. i've dealt with hot cases in my jurisdictions, shep. you're still able to find a jury that will keep their minds open and do justice. >> shepard: dave, thanks. beverly hills voting to get rid of all tobacco sales. all of it. we'll tell you where people will have to go to pick up a pack. but smoking is not the biggest issue in southern california. folks are dealing with what officials are calling a swarm of small earthquakes. details on that as well. first, a taco travesty. that's how police are describing a situation at one taco bell.

hundreds of small earthquakes rattling southern california. scientists say more than 400 quakes have rippled around fontana. trace gallagher reporting live from our los angeles newsroom. trace, are you guys feeling these things? >> i felt the one this morning about 7:30, which was a 4.4 centered about 29 miles off the coast. it was a few seconds but they'd you want the grab on to something. there was a magnitude 4.3 in the same area at 3:45 a.m., which i slept through. the quicks off the coast are not related to the swarm you talked about, a 425 quakes over the past nine days. those are all below magnitude 4 and not connected to a major fault like. some believe it could be pressure from the san andreas fault. the past ten years, we've had the technology to detect the
12:48 pm
small ones. geologists say there's no indication that hundreds of small quicks are a precursor to a big quick. >> there's no active faults in this area. we certainly would not expect a very large or devastating quake. >> so in other words, it's most likely just mother nature letting off a little bit of energy. shep? >> shepard: which is not to say a big one couldn't come separate from that. >> that's right. and we are due. california is in the middle of an earthquake drought. the last magnitude 6 or stronger happened in napa valley in 2014 that did close to a billion dollars in damage. and then the northridge quake in 1994 and the 6.9 quake in san francisco back in 1989. here's the bottom line. there are immense tectonic forces that are pushing part of the state towards alaska and towards mexico. earthquakes have to happen to
12:49 pm
