the web. and let's continue the conversation on twitter @howard kurtz. we will be here next sunday 11 eastern. until then enjoy the latest buzz. >> escalating tensions within the us and iran are continuing at this hour. senior official telling fox news to ron tried to shoot down an american drone after arrived at the scene of last week's tanker attacks near the strait of hormuz. this is the british announced they are now sending forces to protect the vital route. happy father's day, welcome to "america's newsheadquarters", i'm eric shawn along with jillian . >> happy father's day to and all of the fathers out there. i'm in for arthel neville. damage will take us both now

docked off the coast of the united arab emirates. meanwhile the uk is joining the u.s. in pointing the finger at iran. negative state mike pompeo appearing on "fox news sunday" saying there is no doubt who is responsible. >> it is unmistakable happen here. these were attacks by the islamic republican ãrepublic of iran with the clear intent to deny transit to the straight. american people should rest assured with high confidence with respect to conduct the attacks as well as half a dozen other attacks throughout the world. over the past 40 days. >> with fox news team coverage, trey yingst is live that would be with ellison barber. >> the president says yes will guarantee freedom of navigation throughout . the u.s. does not want war. listen here. >> we've done what we can to deter this, the iranians should

understand very clear that we will continue to take actions that deter iran from engaging this kind of behavior. i've made a number of calls to my colleagues around the world yesterday. i'm confident we will have partners that understand this threat. >> secretary pompeo claims the u.s. has lost -- lots of data of proof. he is not laid up and says soon the world will see much of it. the already released surveillance video that the top administration, military say it shows iranian sailors removing an unexploded mine from one of the tankers attacked in the gulf of oman. the president pointed to the integral "fox and friends" singer reinforces were trying to get rid of evidence because the unexploded mine likely had in his words, iran written all over it. there are conflicting reports japanese owner of the tanker says it was hit by some sort of flying projectile. iran of course denies any involvement. jillian? jillian: thank you very much.

eric: saudi arabia crown prince now speaking publicly for the first time on the tanker attacks. he too appears to be joining the u.s. in blaming the original rival saudi arabia, iran peerless go to trey yingst live in jerusalem with the latest details on this. reporter: hi, eric. after the attacks on two oil tankers last week, there is a consensus among u.s. allies including britain and saudi arabia that iran is indeed responsible. the countries have provided definitive evidence linking iranian leadership to the explosions, the question now is whether or not there will be response from the international community since images do show the day of the attack that things should point i remember one of the tankers was towed back, they were f-15 fighter jets flown over the gulf as a show of force against the iranians. this as the saudi crown prince

says the kingdom is not looking for war but will continue to protect its interests. overlooking iranian backed rebels targeted two saudi airports with drones for the third time in the past week. iran continues to deny responsibility for directing such attacks from his proxies in the region. on saturday russian president vladimir putin and iranian president met on the sidelines of a summit. while they again called on european countries to meet -- it was noticeably restrained. >> one country can't fund all of the challenges and reset all the benefits at the same time alone. reaching peace, stability and growth of the nations requires cooperation. >> despite the comments, there is concern in the region that

more attacks from proxies could take place over the next few weeks. at a july 7 deadline for nuclear negotiations. eric: thank you so much. jillian: for more on all of this, spring and christian whiton, former senior official at the state department. good afternoon to you, sir. thank you for joining us.if you listen you just heard trey yingst talk about the saudi crown prince.what you think? >> i think we've done a good job riling international support. if we have more british naval assets running her own in the persian gulf is a good thing. the countries that matter most are united against the iranian threat. the saudis, the emirates, those that have significant assets and of course the united states and britain. every move against iran militarily and i think science increasingly point to that requirement. it is important we do so with our allies. question expect to see more like this in the future? >> certainly if we do not take military action i think it is inevitable. iran has been pushing on an open door with the offense after offense for quite some time. secretary pompeo laid out a

bunch of happen since recently as april 22 when iran said it was going to interfere with shipping in the persian gulf. now it has, it also tried to attack our embassy in baghdad also respolean. both iran and his proxies. and waging war against saudi arabia. if we don't act against it the start will just get more and more worse and of course, iran has a habit of targeting u.s. forces, blowing up marine barracks in beirut, military barracks, the towers in saudi arabia, it has two proxies on the israel border so it will get worse until we do something. kristi mentioned possibly getting worse until we do something. you go back in time to the late 70s and early 80s and a lot of people are referencing attack to happen then and the fact that iran has gotten away too much for too long quite honestly. that's what a lot of people say. the question is, if this hasn't really significantly changed in that amount of time from the late 70s until now, what can

youdo right now to implant the change that will be lasting? >> we and our allies i think we should respond with counterforce, this is a maritime attack on all of us. even though the u.s. is an exporter of oil we, because we export a lot of refined products have to import a lot of oil including some that comes from the middle east, this is economically vital but we should strike back at the maritime capabilities with our allies, maintain escalation dominance. if they want to move at the escalation letter we should show that we are more than willing to do that in the military action would not have to look anything like the iraq war or the afghanistan war. it would place our advantages in naval and air power and make iran pay a price. it would also be politically useful because we can support for the bureaucratic regime with in iran. >> the secretary has been from of the saying is unmistakable what happened here.do think he's going about this and using the right language? >> i think so. i think you're being firm. i think they're not talking about military options just yet. i hope is because they are

building international coalition and it does seem to be coming together. it is a big deal that we have britain putting more forces into the persian gulf because britain, germany and france were very much against us on a ranch or the truck to cultural companies on how to circumvent u.s. financial sanctions. on a raft nuclear program. and the fact that london has come around i think is a sign that u.s. diplomacy is working very well. i know they want to go to the un i think it might be a waste of time but build the coalition and strike back with allied force that shows iran that taken the military path will be fruitless. jillian: is anything else that you would like to see our allies doing right now? >> i think ultimately it is fine i think the president is right to leave it open to negotiations but that will not happen anytime soon. without calling it regime change think we can be rooting for the people ever ran to replace the bureaucratic regime that does not enter the start of the people. being strong militarily is gated but talking on how they are weak and does waste money

that could go to iranians, it's a son hezbollah and hamas and military operations in syria. that type of political warfare i think is important. speech i want to get your opinion on this new york times article. it's actually, this is how it's data. faceup with iran escalation may depend on who prevails inside washington and to run suggesting that both are seizing this for political advantage. what do you say about that?>> they are wrong on iran. this goes back to the beginning of the islamic republic in 1979. war establishment people in washington are sensed that there are matters in a ranch just is about to come to power. it led the reagan administration to trade arms for hostages. regulator said it was a huge mistake.there always these moderates and iran when i think they have been in charge all along. the united states, i think of the trump team on very much the same page and donald trump

himself, next to killing isis, iran is a has been the biggest part of his foreign-policy.i think john bolton, secretary pompeo on the same page, it will be nice if the senate would confirm patrick shanahan as secretary of defense. it would be nice to have a confirmed secretary of defense. but we have to wait for that. i think the new york times kind of get that one wrong. >> thank you very much christian whiton. reporter: thank you. eric: not to the presidential race. 2020 democratic hopefuls in south carolina this week. laying out expanding economic opportunities. and those that make up the majority of the democratic electorate in the state. jonathan serrie is live and much more. >> the candidates are acknowledging we are on the eve of a somber anniversary. tomorrow will mark the fourth anniversary of the charleston

church shooting. in which white supremacists walked into an historically african-american church, opened fire and killed nine members. this morning, new jersey senator cory booker attended sunday morning worship services at mother emanuel church. >> this is an incredible church in a credible community. in a morning like this such a tragic anniversary is just good to be here to worship with folks and just a firm community. >> i want to say not only tragic shooting but about how the community has come together and made themselves stronger and study for racial justice, social justice and economic justice and i admire where people take something terrible happened and make something good out of it. >> warren and booker were among four democratic presidential contenders speaking at a form organized by the black economic alliance. a permanent concern that came

up sentencing reform. >> wttw.com/comments order to just join the ranks of developed countries that don't incarcerate shocking proportions of their population, should be reducing 50 percent the number of people incarcerated. as someone has paid their price, their debt to society, let's make sure that they don't have to continue to bear the consequences. banning the box seat on the check something on an employment application form, which makes it less likely that you'll get the job. reporter: according to a new fox news poll former vice president joe biden is beating president trump by 10 percentage points if the election were held today. bernie sanders would win by nine points. through the democrats have a slight lead over the present but falls within the margin of error and as many candidates and democratic strategists will point out, it is still very early in the election campaign cycle. eric: jonathan serrie with

church music in the background in charleston, thank you. we will delve much more further into the new fox polls the jonathan just mentioned. how the voters are feeling about issues like tariffs, immigration and impeachment. and also live in the newscast will start the exclusive new series protect your vote. the voter rolls in illinois were hacked by the russians in 2016. we are say what that state is doing now to defend the election system to be upcoming residential race. jillian: voters in guatemala choosing to present to rick smith the illegal immigration problem at our southern border. and we are learning about new details about the agreement with mexico. gop congressman mark green joins us on that. but right now in france, team usa taking on chile and the women's world cup. go team usa! we are coming right back. ok everyone! our mission is to provide complete, balanced nutrition for strength and energy! whoo-hoo!

your engines because of the possible fuel -- something to keep in mind this summer. jillian: an important election underway in guatemala. with voters casting their ballots for any present. this could have consequences for the migrant surge of the southern border. i am launching us is live from the border with more. william? reporter: gillian, guatemala is about the size of tennessee and yet the number one source of illegal immigrants to the united states for many the journey begins right here at the river. not just guatemalans but those coming in from honduras and el salvador as well. it is why the united states is sending 80 border agents to help guatemala control its southern border and northern border. and why the president has asked mexico, we will swing over here to bring in the national guard. look to the trees or to go see a vehicle from the mexican neighbor, they are stopping individuals who don't have a

border crossing card. but this area is easy to patrol, is if a video but if you go upstream the methods get higher, the force gets thicker. fewer roads, it becomes almost impossible to police. also why the u.s. is deported more guatemalans than ever before. three or four for today. several days a week. up to 1500 individuals who are arrived, they are processed and released. some promise to stop, others say they will try again. what are you going to do now? do you have any family had to go see? >> no. i know have -- i go back. >> are you going to try again? >> i don't think so. >> why? >> i have three daughters and i need work and so i don't have money. so i can try again. >> are you going back? >> yeah, i'm going back. reporter: to georgia?

>> yeah. reporter: immigrants from guatemala increasingly coming from the rural highlands common area has been hit hard by drought, falling coffee prices by 46 percent and they say it is not about violence. not about crime which is down for seven years in a row, it is about a job, a better life, better wages. here, so make as little as eight dollars a day. >> lack of opportunities. the lack of education, the lack money. >> but it does not generate enough jobs for the population that we have. we have almost 200,000 people coming into the job market. and only around 40 to 50,000 jobs being created in the economy. reporter: today's also election day overshadowed by corruption for the front runner, former first lady accused of money laundering. through the last four

presidents are in jail or on charges. currently the presidents brother and son are charged with fraud and 5/24 current candidates were struck from the ballot including two front runners. one, estrada, rested for taking bribes. one analyst we spoke to is optimistic of the outcome. >> it will probably cost even more problems in guatemala that will lead to more migration and more conflict and more violence. so the situation will grow worse, not better. reporter: there is likely going to be a runoff in this election, no candidate was getting more than 50 percent. this is not as busy it will be late at night when the migrants may attempt to cross here from guatemala into mexico. and try to deal with the national guard over there. too. jillian: william la jeunese, thank you.eric? eric: the tariff that president trump used, he got in two days

more than congress.we are troops of the southern border that mexico has deployed. with mexico committed to take the phony asylum-seekers onto mexican soil which would deter further immigration from the northern triangle. eric: that is the trumpet mission director trade of manufacturing policy, peter navarro. early this morning, "sunday morning futures". he says president trump is ready to make good on his threat of the punitive new tariffs on mexico. if the nation does not live up to his part of the new border agreement. so how and when can we determine that the southern neighbor is really enforcing the terms of the deal? in cutting the flow central american migrants that have been flooding the southern border. we have a congressman which is among a group of lawmakers the alaina border security proposal to the department of homeland security just last month and a member of the house homeland security and oversight committee.

congressman, do you trust mexico to really take meaningful action to try and rein in the flood that is going through their country and landing on our doorstep? >> i do now. thank you for having on the show. i do now because we have a present willing to put teeth in a deal, any businessman knows, i'm a businessman. i built a multimillion dollar health company. i get it, you can have a deal if you don't have teeth and appeared and also the president added. five percent tariff and i think it got their attention. now you see the activity on their southern border which you just reported and of course now we see their assistance with the asylum-seekers. being able to house them in mexico as that process happens. absolutely, it can be measured. we can actually know how many asylum-seekers have actually you know applications are out there and then with the crossing numbers are. there is a way to measure it, this is about teeth in a deal

in the god who wrote the art of the deal is making it happen. eric: and the deal goes in 45 day increments. reporter: that's right. eric: we can review and say mexico, you have to do the right thing.>> that is exactly right. i'm sorry? eric: we will stop more on if they do not abide by the agreement. >> exactly. that is a good deal. it's got teeth in it, when i was a state senator we did a bill and i say to a city bill. in the state already had a law that said you cannot have a century city. but until we put teeth in it some of the cities that we are thinking about, they were moving forward. you have have teeth in these kinds of deals to make it happen. eric: in terms of teeth you want more in these deals you're part of writing a letter to homeland security. let me show you some of the proposals that you want and think should be enacted. expanding training for the credible fear of interviews. there is only to be people, the asylum-seekers when they come to our board approved limiting parole policy, limiting work authorization to only those who basically qualify, increase like the asylum fees and floors agreement that has caused such

consternation and controversy. why do you think we need this? >> the floors agreement is an excellent agreement. it basically creates if they grab a child to have a visa to get into the united states and it's really ridiculous. even if his well-intentioned is a bad policy and it has to end. we are on that letter in the house but there's also an initiative in the senate with senator lindsey graham working very hard on his side of the building. we're going to have to get this done if we want to fix the immigration issue. and i appreciate your comments about the challenges in guatemala but that is sort of a long-term fix. it won't get fixed right away. the crisis at the border have got to get fixed. it is dire. i'm also a physician in the human suffering down there is just, it is appalling. and we have to after the president is ready. he wants 4.5 billion, he has asked for, hopefully we can get that through the appropriations process. there's a lot of work that has to be done and it's a crisis,

we have to do it now. eric: is a growing crisis and so heartbreaking when he heard the stories and the deaths of young people and others in custody. but critics are saying that basically look congressman, asylum is a legal right. you have a legal right to come and ask for asylum. and these are punishing those fleeing violence in gangs and potential killing from the nations where they are coming from. >> sure, but the problem at the southern borders also crisis for americans. it is costing thousands of taxpayer dollars, with ranch americans every week and die from heroin overdose. and we know 90 percent of the particularly this opioids, fentanyl are coming across the southern border. we have got a duty to protect americans and certainly we want to help those people in guatemala who are suffering but that again is a more long-term fix.the real crisis is at the southern border and it needs repair now. you can cite the studies from like doctors without borders. 31 percent of the women who

make the trek from the northern triangle across mexico into our border, through our border are being sexually assaulted. this is a humanitarian crisis and if the left really cared about women, they would be with us on this issue. but tragically they are more concerned about 20/20 talking points and their own power then they are helping people who are suffering and it is appalling. eric: your silly right that people are suffering and we have to address it. one thing finally that i looked at, william just reported. the people interviewed were looking for jobs. let me show you study from syracuse university. it shows most asylum-seekers are rejected. since nine percent nearly 16 percent from el salvador, with a 76 percent from honduras. 75 percent. guatemala are rejected. that, do you think is showing that the judge's are saying they don't have cause to come here. what does that say about the current situation? >> is indicative of the

problems in the northern triangle countries.but it's proof that the system at least on what the judge's are doing, they are actually doing their job and they are appropriately applying the law, what is a true you know, asylum situation. but really we have got to stop the flow because we don't have the court capacity to handle the flow right now.over 100,000 people in march. i mean like i said, it's a crisis and i will continue to beat the drum until we get a solution. eric: congressman mark green, getting back to record levels not seen in a decade. >> yes, sir. eric: thank you for speaking to us today. >> thank you. jillian: still to come, new fox polls out on the trumpet ministrations take on immigration. of savings and service.

whoa. travis in it made it. it's amazing. oh is that travis's app? it's pretty cool, isn't it? there's two of them. they're multiplying. no, guys, its me. see, i'm real. i'm real! he thinks he's real. geico. over 75 years of savings and service.

and i don't add trup the years.s. but what i do count on... is boost® delicious boost® high protein nutritional drink has 20 grams of protein, along with 26 essential vitamins and minerals. boost® high protein. be up for life. eric: brand-new fox news polls

out on a range of issues including immigration. as we are reporting on new details of the presidents deal with mexico to try and stop the flow of migrants at the southern border. one of the polls show half of voters feel the president has gone too far. in enforcing immigration laws. jacqui heinrich has more details from the news room in new york. hi jackie! reporter: hello. the biggest takeaways over the election. number show the president trailing five democrats in a hypothetical matchup. the former vice president joe biden comes in with voters saying they would go from over the 39 percent for the president. -- others also came ahead of the president by a much smaller margin but pete buttigieg with just one point per the paul by the way has a margin of error by three percentage points. will consider pete buttigieg, harris and warner tied with the present. 20 democrats will participate in next week's debates, 11 had one percent or less support. the two biggest names that low are kirsten gillibrand and

former colorado governor john -- and bernie sanders has pretty significant drop in support, back in march he was higher now he's backed up to 13. -- >> polls go up and go down. the other party for her to correctly are that i am eating president trump which is consistent with all of the polling that i've seen. before the poll also measure the presidents approval rating with majority 53 percent say they disapprove of his job. 45 percent approving. about the same as june of last year when the same number approved and slightly fewer, 51

percent disapproved. the president did have a win when it came to the economy. large majority 57 percent saying they feel optimistic. just 37 percent feeling optimistic. the president launches his reelection campaign on tuesday. overall fewer voters said they would be scared if president trump won reelection then those that felt that way in 2016. but in hypothetical matchups with democrats, he never hit above 31 percent. eric: 48 hours before the president starts again. thank you. jillian: let's stick with this because also included in the new polls is how voters feel about impeaching the president. now let's bring in francesca chambers, senior white house correspondent for the daily mail. thank you for joining us. we want to talk about some of the polls.

and a lot of people say it is too early, don't look at the polls but we still like to look at the menu appeared whether or not the president should be impeached. this is what we're talking about and removed from office by the way, 43 percent say he should be impeached and removed but 48 percent say not impeached. what you make of the numbers? >> there's also seven percent that is quite interesting that believe he should be impeached. but not removed from office. we take the number that he should either be impeached or removed and not removed, it's if they should be impeached before election of democrats should just continue on the course they are on and try to get him out of office through the 2020 election. >> here's something i found interesting speaking of impeachment peer support is up five points among democrats since june 2018. it's really to no surprise of anyone.but this is the interesting thing i found. it is up 15 among independents. a lot of independents still do not know where the head is at or what they want to do in 2020.when you look at that significant jump was it sadie

at? chris actually number the president and the campaign should be concerned about, even if you look at the number of people in the polls who believe he will be paid with by the way is very low, it tells you something about where independents are in terms if they want to get him out of office by electing another democrat. the 15, sister mueller report as well, it is something they should absolutely be concerned about.>> let's talk about this for a minute. should congressional democrats spend more less time investigating president trump? this is another fox news poll. we pulled up, 40 percent, majority hearsay less time investigating the president. are you surprised? >> is another one actually where people are split because when you look at the number who believe they should spend more time investigating where the amount that is just right, 47 percent believe it should be more time or just right. comparatively, i think is what you are seeing playing out in these, 2020 race.

americans trying to decide where they stand on this presidency and on the issues as they are looking at the field of more than 20 democrats. i think we will get a better sense of this as well after the democratic presidential debate coming up in a week or so. >> before you let your run, and i want to talk about joe biden. >> i did! >> the stage is yours, go ahead.[laughter] >> the fact that president trump is talking so much about joe biden this week is really reflective of what he, the white house and his campaign think about the democratic 2020 field. remember when he was talking to elizabeth warren and said he regretted it because he hit her too hard and too fast. he made her go down the polls now she's going back up, ernie sanders is someone going down the polls, you stop talking about him as much this week bernie sanders gave a speech on democratic socialism. but we didn't really hear president trump talking about that.we heard them talking about joe biden. report of the reason for that it could be that in a 2020

general election he thinks he would have a better chance running against a candidate who professes to be a socialist no matter what you call that. whether it is far left or progressive or socialism, potentially someone like joe biden. >> he saw the poll we had on the screen while you're talking about joe biden. people were voting right now the poll shows joe biden would lead the president by 10 percent. that is a significant difference at this point. again, it is a hypothetical scenario because we are not voting right now. >> a trump campaign makes a point in this i think is very important. which is that election is not today. by the time it takes place all of the other candidates will have went through what we expect to be a pretty brutalizing democratic primary. again, going back to the debates when joe biden is on the stage he will have none of the democrats who are gunning for him and i think the campaign expects his numbers to go down. >> take you for joining us. >> thank you. eric: now to our investigative

series, protect your vote. senate republicans have been under fire for blocking legislation to defend our nation. from foreign election interference. several senate bills are now awaiting action, aimed at beefing up election protection. but majority leader mitch mcconnell says, the feds are already providing him to state and local election officials. one state hacked and choices he was illinois. i went to see if they are better prepared for 2020. take a look.>> to most people, this is the mundane sound of a keyboard. but in this room, it signals the defense of our democracy. this is the computer server room and the board of elections.and like similar offices across the country, these computers are the new battlefield defending threats from and the election. >> were at the frontlines of ensuring that the protections,

integrity of our elections is first at hand. >> cyber threats are reality and take it seriously. what happened to us is bad but it could've been a lot worse. >> during the 2016 presidential election illinois was hit by a foreign force. the russians. they say they breached the road voter registration roles, records of 76,000 voters more than 14 thousand in the small city of galesburg in the central part of the state. >> it was a wake-up call. >> stephen is the executive director of the illinois state board of elections. >> never thought that this something that was going to happen to us. well, it did and it could happen again. >> to face the threat the state create what he calls the cyber navigator program. specially trained computer experts called navigators who are on guard for election hacking across the state. in all, 102 counties, 24/7. most of the funding comes from

washington. part of the $380 million earmarked for election protection. illinois cut is just under 13 million. >> it sounds like they are a computer commando squad. >> yes. a front line of defense. they do risk assessment testing, spearfishing assessments. their job is to discover what vulnerabilities exist in the system. >> this program and the federal government assistance and the states persistence, and focusing on cyber protections of our elections, is really open up the doors for us to detect , protect and defend our apparatus of elections. >> less than 10 percent of states took advantage of the 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. >> the illinois example is a great example of what is possible with additional federal money. >> elections security expert at the new york university brennan

center for justice says still, more needs to be done. >> the fact of the matter is running elections cost money. if we're going to do it right, i believe we have to spend a few hundred million dollars a year to protect our elections. that is less than the pentagon recently spent anywhere in military, i think we can do it to ensure the elections. >> a confident that the system is safe? >> i'm feeling more confident than in the past. but this will be forever a vigilant activity of ours. question about how sophisticated defenses are, there are hackers out there that could find a way around it. >> but are you confident we are better off today than we were two years ago? >> i believe we are, yes. >> we will not allow this to thwart the confidence of our foundations of our framers. we take it serious and we work hard in his defense and making sure that we have great elections. >> election was in the senate now include election security act defending elections from threats and the secure elections act. as for the house it's earmarked $600 million for election

security. officials fully expect russia and perhaps others will attack us again next year. but at least in illinois, they tell us that they are ready. this is for me! president trump pushing back on the reporting of "the new york times" claim in the u.s. is ramping up the cyber attacks on russia. we will have that still to come. portfolios to your goals and needs. some only call when they have something to sell. fisher calls regularly so you stay informed. and while some advisors are happy to earn commissions whether you do well or not. fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management. so chantix can help you quit slow turkey.rkey. along with support, chantix is proven to help you quit. with chantix you can keep smoking at first
