11:00 am
on further irreversible joint damage. talk to your rheumatologist. right here. right now. humira. >> new development in the middle east, associated press reporting iran released crew members of that norwegian ship, those sailors are touching down in dubai, this comes as the us central command releases that video showing iran's revolutionary guard taking and unexploded mine off of one of those targeted ship settings to growing fears
11:01 am
jillian: the trump administration is weighing its options against iran though the country's foreign minister is denying any involvement in those attacks. donald trump says he has no doubt that iran is to blame. >> iran did do it and you know they did it because one of the minds didn't explode and it got iran written all over it and it was them. they didn't want the evidence left behind. >> jennifer griffin following this from the dc bureau. >> new details of an incident we first reported about the us drone fired on by the iranian's on thursday. a senior us official tells me just minutes after the first distress call went out at 6:12
11:02 am
am local time the us military moved to an unmanned drone over the out tear. it arrived at 6:20 local time and at 6:45 local time prior to the second attack on the second tanker. a missile was fired at the us drone on station over the all tear, a norwegian flagship. it missed, us officials have assessed the missile was a modified surface-to-air missile fired from iran's mainland. it was fired after the us drone arrived to assist the norwegian tanker. separately we have learned from us officials that an american drone was shot down over yemen by iranian backed rebels in recent days, the british government issued a statement blaming iran's revolutionary guard for tanker attacks this week saying no other states or nonstate actor could plausibly have been responsible but the german government says it needs
11:03 am
more evidence than the video released by central command showing iranian boat removing and unexploded mine from one of the other vessels. iran says it plans to release the 23 sailors it detained from the all tear but we have now learned that they have arrived in dubai. iran kept its word and we are learning from us officials they were not rescued by iran. they were forced into iranian custody by a boat crew who surrounded the ship that rescued them. >> john hannah, national security adviser to dick cheney, the foundation for the defense of democracy. predictably brazen again, that is iran's behavior. will they pull it back? >> i think right now we are on the road to further escalation.
11:04 am
in particular these firings on us military drones is a major new development that so far has been unconfirmed by the us government but it is one thing to be attacking foreign oil tankers off the strait of hormuz and another ballgame to be attacking us military assets directly, even unmanned systems so i think this type of thing requires a more forceful us response. >> what would that forceful us response be? during the campaign donald trump in a speech in florida talked about iranian boats that are like gnats and mosquitoes that swarm around our navy assets as you said we should shoot them out of the water. do you think that is something
11:05 am
similar to that could be there reaction? >> i think the iranian's are going to be attacking the us military directly, that is another ballgame and unless you put a stop to that early and quickly the way president reagan did back in 1988, putting half of its navy boats in the bottom of the golf and put a stop to the iranian challenge to american shipping, if you don't do that this will only escalate further and have further provocation from the iranian's where they are beginning to come after american military personnel. >> they kind of kidnapped some of our personnel wednesday took them to the sailboat. he referred to the 1988 incident, the samuel adams hit an iranian mine and ronald
11:06 am
reagan did what you said, but it is a more sophisticated, different military power. this could potentially explode into a broader conflict. others are saying we want forces in the region to take on iran. >> that is possible but as we have seen in the last month the united states has been augmenting forces in this part of the world quite dramatically and there is now talk that general mckenzie is requesting another 6000 troops, perhaps two additional fighter squadrons, more anti-ballistic missile defenses so the united states is quite capable of inflicting a very heavy price on iran in addition to everything we can still do to isolate them diplomatically, hit them economically and covert operations in terms of cyberwarfare but we need to make
11:07 am
sure the iranian's don't get comfortable in that gray zone of being able to attack american interests with violence underneath the threshold of activity that would automatically trigger an american military response. if we allow that to happen without imposing real price on the iranian's this will be to precisely the kind of war we are seeking to avoid. eric: what if they say it is a drone, they can shoot drones? that could cause a new policy to escort these tankers like we did into the taker wars? >> that is an option if you have enough ships in the area you can do that. otherwise you do what you are should be doing anyway which is getting gina haskell, apolitical senior officials and top military brass over to europe, the arabian gulf, to japan and
11:08 am
asia to get them participating in something like a naval escort, getting their ships involved so it is a true international response that isolates the iranian's and lets them know they are not going to be allowed to get away with this kind of activity that threatens the oil of the entire world, that fueled the entire community with impunity. eric: the international community is speaking against this as well as arab sunni allies. do you think the coalition should include the uae and other states in the region to send tehran a lasting message? >> everybody has to be involved. olive out of asian allies, the
11:09 am
chinese have a huge stake in keeping the strait of hormuz open, keeping a lid on the price of oil, they need to have skin in the game if they don't want to see a catastrophic war that will send the price of oil through the roof. we have to make it absolutely clear to the muellers that they are not going to be able to play this game with the world community and global economy. eric: it seems tehran is running scared. thank you for joining us. by the way, we are talking more about this tomorrow with mike pompeo who will be the guest with chris wallace on fox news sunday, the major product of tomorrow's program. jillian: donald trump talking out the economy, what he sees as one of his strongest selling points as he gets ready to launch his 2020 campaign in
11:10 am
florida, on tuesday. the president tweeting the trump economy is setting records and has a long way to go but if anyone but me takes over in 2020 i know the competition very well, there will be a market crash the likes of which has never seen before. keep america great. good saturday. >> the president touting the strength of his poll numbers saying his poll numbers are better than they were in 2016 when he won the election on the heels of reports this week that internal campaign pulling back in march found vice president joe biden was leading donald trump in several key battleground states. the trump campaign isn't pushing back on these polls, disputing whether or not they did in fact find that but they are saying the president is explaining, the
11:11 am
trump campaign is saying these numbers are ancient in campaign terms, months old pulling that began in march more two major events occurred pointing to the completion of the mueller investigation and democratic candidates beginning to layout progressive messages. the president is ahead of official campaign trying to clarify comments he made in an interview with george stephanopoulos suggesting there was nothing wrong with listening to information from foreign governments on his political opponents saying he would not report those efforts to the fbi. on "fox and friends" friday the president tried to clarify his statement but explained he would report those efforts if he thought anything he received was incorrect or badly stated. >> you have to look at it because if you don't look at it you will not know if it is bad but of course you give it to the fbi or report it to the attorney general or somebody like that
11:12 am
but of course you do that. you couldn't have that happen with our country and everybody understands that. >> political rivals are pouncing on this and nancy pelosi who said this incident is another piece of evidence that donald trump believes he is above the law. >> it is a very sad thing. very sad thing he does not know right from wrong. i believe he has been involved in a criminal cover-up. >> he is at trump international golf club for his birthday weekend ahead of the official launch of his campaign reelection and tuesday night at a rally in orlando, one of several key battleground states, spending a lot of time, he needs to win those same key swing
11:13 am
eric: you know what the music means, speaking of the 2020 campaign a lot of democratic candidates are in charleston, south carolina today attending the black economic alliance. the first primary, african-american voters and the majority of the democratic electorate in that state. in charleston, covering it all -- >> reporter: elizabeth warren speaking inside. outside, the candidates outside various campaign events. moments ago, pete buttigieg leading a pro union rally, and beto o'rourke reiterating, the defendants of african slaves
11:14 am
brought over helping to build this country. he met yesterday with members of the geeky community on the coast of south carolina. the democratic primary will be an important early indicator of the african-american vote because in this state black democrats outnumber white democrats by a 2:1 margin. >> in general people who vote in the democratic primary tends to be more liberal than the average voter but that is not the case in south carolina. the democratic voters in south carolina are more moderate. since they are going to be listening for cues about the economic policies of the democratic party much more so than the social policies. >> reporter: i should also mention new jersey senator cory booker is also participating, a total of four democratic presidential contenders. campaigning in a state that for years has voted solidly red in presidential elections.
11:15 am
>> represents a real challenge, that african-americans -- unemployment at a record low under this president and administration. they need to explain that and i don't think they can. >> the mood of the country is different, the mood of our party is different and the urgency to ensure we get across the finish line 1st to take back that temporary public housing unit we know as the white house is totally different than it was in 2008. >> reporter: democrats may be unlikely to turn south carolina blue in 2020 the parties expected to play a pivotal role in the primary in south carolina in this crowded democratic field. jillian: new details about the side deal between the us and mexico to slow the flood of migrants to the southern border. this as two top officials in the

mexico agreed to to stop the continuing flow of migrants to the southern border. mexico published the agreement signed on june 7th. what is it and will it work? in the los angeles bureau. >> reporter: the supplementary agreement include several key provisions between the us and mexico and it calls for burden sharing and assignment of responsibility assisting refugee claims. also under the terms, if the united states determined that its discretion and after 45 days that the measures implemented by mexico have not adequately achieve results in addressing the flow of migrants, then mexico will take all necessary steps under domestic law to bring the agreement into force, all of this coming weeks after the president threatened tariffs on mexico if changes were not made. this deal would help avoid those tariffs for mexico. >> a way to put pressure on

11:22 am
he says was premature but he has not accepted any position just yet. jillian: alarm bells ringing on the southern border even louder as money to address the crisis is running out. the permit of health and human services and homeland security writing a letter to congress stressing the severity of the crisis asking for more money. >> the timing is immediate. we are out of money. we will not have the money to run this program, we take care of children who come into this country by themselves illegally, they are given to us to care for them. by this month or next month we will have no money and already have to take drastic measures to protect their life and safety with what little money we have left. jillian: let's bring in a congressional reporter for the wall street journal, thank you
11:23 am
for your time, will they get the money they need? will they get any more? >> democrats and republicans say they want to get aboard a supplemental package past before congress leaves so that is progress in a way because they were not on the same terms two weeks ago when congress passed a disaster relief bill. they couldn't agree so they tossed out the border security supplemental so both sides are at least saying they want to get something done. jillian: will it get done? do they agree enough? >> immigration, over and over, hard to tell, if the money is focused on humanitarian aid and less so on immigration and customs enforcement there could be agreement, chairman and ranking members from both parties on all four corners say
11:24 am
they want to get it done but your guess is as good as mine. this issue has be doubled congress all the time. >> the health department reported having fewer than 700 beds and you look at that number, 703 and compared to homeland security reporting 1900 children earlier this week ready to be transferred, these kids are ready to be transported, not enough beds for them. obviously this is a crisis and at this point in time most people in most sides agree this is a crisis, but you wonder if anything will get done before 2020. at this point we could see people on the left flip-floping to say this is a crisis. >> nancy pelosi agrees something should be done to lower the appropriations chair, they say they want to focus on humanitarian aid and increase beds, hard for democrats, they see that as changing immigration
11:25 am
policy and allowing more people to be detained for longer in the future. they feel every time they fund a bed it shifts how immigration policy and asylum claims are handled. it will depend on the makeup of the immigration package and senate republicans are set to take up something in the judiciary committee this week. there is a chance they are further ahead on this process. they could take up the bill and send to the house before recess and they will choose whether to take of the bill has to by the senate or if they don't do something. jillian: there was a fox news townhall with julian castro, he talked about donald trump's failing on immigration. >> if you think about it for a second, when he came into office donald trump said he was going to solve this, as he put it, this immigration problem. and he has completely failed.
11:26 am
100 people are in 100 ° heat of el paso texas underneath a bridge being fenced in and kept like animals together without the ability to shower or change clothes for a whole month. that is the failure this president has been on the issue of immigration. jillian: is that fair? >> it seems much more complicated than that. people are coming to the border to seek asylum because of the problems in the northern triangle countries and they are running into problems. we see these asylum claims jump every summer. building a wall does not help these asylum claims, focusing on that as democrats will point to is not helpful but there is a long-standing issue on immigration on both sides. that is the reason we continue to see problems.
11:27 am

11:35 am
presidential election illinois was hit by a foreign force, the russians. authorities say they preach the registration rolls. and 76,000 voters, 14,000 in galesburg. >> it was a wake-up call. >> reporter: the thicket of director of the illinois state board of elections. >> this was going to happen to us, it did and it could happen again. >> to face that threat the state created what it called the cyber navigator programs, specially trained computer experts called navigators on guard for election hacking across the state. at all, 102 counties, 24/seven. most of the funding comes from washington, $380 million earmarked for election protection. illinois's cut 13 million. >> the computer commando squad and the front line of defense,
11:36 am
their job is to discover what vulnerabilities exist in the system. >> this program and the federal government assistance and states persistent focusing on cyber protection really opened up doors for us to detect, protect and defend our apparatus of elections. >> less than 10% of states took advantage of federal funding at first, more are signing on. they recognize like those here in illinois who experienced the hacking that cyber threats to the election system are very real. >> a great example of what is possible with additional federal money. eric: election security expert at the university center for justice says more needs to be done. >> the fact of the matter is running elections costs money. if we are going to do it right i believe we have to spend a few hundred million dollars a year to protect our elections. less than the pentagon recently spent on the military.
11:37 am
we can afford to do that for the elections. >> are you confident the system is safe? >> more confident than in the past but this is going to be forever, a joint activity. >> no matter how sophisticated the defenses are, there are hackers that can find a way around it. >> are you confident we are better off today than we were two years ago? >> i believe we are. >> we were not for the confidence of our foundation of our framers. we take it seriously and we will work hard to make sure we have good elections. >> reporter: election bills in the senate include the election security act, defense elections from threats and secure elections act, all the way to a vote. the house has earmarked $600 million for election security. facing the threat that still exists. officials expect we will be attacked again in the upcoming
