>> dana: it is jets versus giants. so much football happening. i think you for joining us, i am dana perino and we will see you on "the five." shannon bream is going to take it from here. >> shannon: breaking news, president trump set to speak any minute now at a campaign event in atlanta. we will watch there for any news. released more transcripts of the impeachment inquiry testimony before public hearings kick off next week. i am shannon bream and this is fox news reporting. today's transcripts from president trump's former russia advisor for yoda hill and a military advisor on the national security council both described their dealings with ukraine. according to hills transcripts, she told lawmakers she was very shocked and very saddened to read the summary of the call with ukraine's president. my worst nightmare is the politicization of the

relationship between the u.s. and ukraine and also other people's personal vested interest. the president has repeatedly said it was a perfect call and set it again today that he's done nothing wrong. we have team fox coverage. white house correspondent john roberts on possibly releasing a transcript another call. chief congressional correspondent mike emanuel. and combing through today's transcripts, hundreds more page pages. >> that's right. we are learning some really important brand-new details from these transcripts and confirming some juicy older ones as we are continuing each passing minute now to go through these transcripts. we are learning that lieutenant colonel testimony is mostly focused on making the case that he believes there was a deal in the works between trap administration officials and ukraine's government. asked do you think the president was trying to get the ukrainian government to investigate former

president joe biden? he says it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see where the game would be for the president and investigating the son of a political opponent. he goes on to add that they were the primary operators communicating those terms. he says there was no ambiguity in my mind. he was calling for something, calling for an investigation that didn't exist into the bidens. he says he was "deeply concerned by what he was seeing and hearing and that he shared those concerns with others." all told, he gave about ten hours of deposition behind closed doors here at the intelligence committee. a lot of republican sources told us at the time that they believed his testimony was perhaps more critical of president trump than any other witness. >> shannon: so what are we learning from the other big transcripts today, fiona hill, her testimony?

>> was one of the first if not the first to report that john bolton, former national security advisor was actively trying to distance himself from what a lot of witnesses have called an unofficial second policy channel with ukraine. in reaction to the rudy giuliani, bolton said his reaction was pained. he directly said rudy giuliani is a hand grenade that is going to blow everybody up. then in response to a question about him specifically, she adds that you try to distance herself from him too saying the more you engage with someone who was spreading untruth, the more validity you give to those untruths. said bolton also said to her a key quote, wanted no part of whatever drug deal they are cooking up. shannon, as of this hour, we are still standing by outside the intelligence committee saying there was still a possibility we are going to get more

transcripts today particularly told to keep an eye out for testimony from former national security council official tim morrison. we will bring you that if we get it as soon as we get it. >> shannon: the republicans in the white house mostly waiting, so we will watch for all of that. thank you. our team fox coverage continues, mike emanuel reporting live from capitol hill. no new depositions, no more closed hearings today. >> two witnesses were invited, neither one showed up. acting white house chief of staff mick mulvaney was subpoenaed but was a no-show today. a key democrat said that hurts the lighthouses case. >> an opportunity to allow witnesses to come in for exonerating witnesses. we can conclude there is a consciousness of guilt there, consider that articles of impeachment for obstruction of congress.

republican senator tom cotton says he doesn't think it will receive serious consideration. >> and secret of the last month to have show trials. >> chairman schiff once the republican wish list by this time tomorrow. >> she was recalled from ukraine this spring there is some controversy, she is due to testify one week from today in an open session here on capitol hill. she is likely to face some tough questions in that hearing, emails obtained by "tucker carlson tonight" reveal she may have contradicted

herself over communication with the democrat staffer regarding ukraine related oversight. under oath, denied responding to an email but it appears she wrote back to the staffer on august 15th using a personal account. expect some republican lawmakers to press her on that matter. >> shannon: i understand that ivanka trump is now speaking out about impeachment as well. >> first daughter ivanka trump usually does not get more involved in controversial issues but she did weigh in on impeachment. >> basically since the election, this has been the experience that our administration and our family has been having. the interest in overturning the results of the 2016 election and removing him from office. >> there will be plenty more for her to react to you as this impeachment probe moves to a more public phase with open hearings next week.

>> shannon: who will be on the witness list? mike, thank you very much alive from capitol hill. chief white house correspondent john roberts reporting from the north lawn. >> good afternoon to you. a development on the last hour or so of this impeachment inquiry. an attorney for john bolton and the former deputy national security advisor here at the white house sent a letter to the general counsel of the house of representatives talking about why both want to get an opinion in federal district court as to the enforceability of the subpoena before they go up to capitol hill and what is kind of a little bit of a tease, writes that ambassador bolton who was a national security advisor to the president who was personally involved in many of the events and conversations about what you have already received testimony as well as many relevant meetings and conversations that have not yet been discussed in the testimonies so far. suggesting that by not waiting

out this court proceeding to determine whether or not these subpoenas are enforceable, the house committees are potentially leaving evidence on the table here. this letter really is telling the house committees you say you don't want to wait until december for a federal district court to rule whether or not subpoenas are enforceable, so how valid really is your impeachment inquiry if you are leaving out a couple of key players here who may actually know what the president said just because you want to keep moving ahead with the impeachment inquiry? some more on that a little bit later on today. meantime, acting chief of staff mick mulvaney and the office of management and deputy director for foreign policy programs did not show up for scheduled depositions today despite subpoenas being issued for them. investigators want to talk to mick mulvaney because he instructed them to put a hold. democrat saying that the no-shows are just more evidence

that the president is obstructing the investigation which could potentially form an article of impeachment. this morning on his way out the door to atlanta, asked the president why his staffers are being instructed to not comply with subpoenas. here is what he told me. >> i don't want to give credibility to a corrupt witch hunt. i would love to have mick go up, frankly. i think he would do great. i have to do with the lawyers say to a certain extent. not always, but to a certain extent. but i will tell you, i would like to have the people go wet. except one thing, it validates a corrupt investigation. >> the president has been keeping up on the transcripts released by the house committees this week which democrats are portraying as trouble for the president. i asked him about that this morning and he did not seem troubled by it in the least. listen here. >> i am not concerned about anything, the testimony has all been fine. for the most part, i never even heard of these people. i have no idea who they are.

some very fine people, some never trumpers, it seems like no one has any first-hand knowledge and all that matters is one thing, the transcript and the transcript is perfect. >> one other thing the president talked about this morning which he has talked about in the past is potentially releasing the transcript of the first call that he had with ukrainian president back on april the 21st. the president the issue again. i am told there was active discussion inside the white house to get a transcript of that call out. there was also some resistance to that notion because the president has a nature of doing that a second time. could come out as early as next week or maybe not at all. we will see. as is often said around these parts. >> shannon: i think next week is going to be a bit busy. thank you. still ahead, more reaction to the latest transcripts.

plan, hospital stays, doctor office visits and medicare deductibles are covered. and, of course, most humana medicare advantage plans include prescription drug coverage. in fact, in 2018, humana medicare advantage prescription drug plan members saved an estimated $7400, on average, on their prescription costs. most humana medicare advantage plans help you stay active and keep fit by including a silver sneakers fitness program at no extra cost. and, you may be able to save on dental and vision expenses, because coverage is now included with most humana medicare advantage plans. you get all this coverage for as low as a zero dollar monthly plan premium in many areas. and your doctor and hospital may already be a part of humana's large network. if you want the facts, call right now for the free decision guide from humana. there is no obligation, so call

chris wallace in washington. another round today, hundreds of pages, your initial reaction? >> it is more evidence that at least top officials in the national security council believe that there was a connection and that there was an absolute campaign by this administration to link aid to ukraine, a presidential meeting with president zelensky. all of that was dependent on investigating and you have some pretty strong testimony, it was leaked several days ago so not a surprise from fiona hill who was a top and ukraine official on the national security council who said former national security advisor john bolton as saying rudy giuliani was a hand grenade that was going to blow us all up and that he didn't want any part of any drug deals. not literally, but figuratively,

about deals quid pro quo's involving ukraine. so it is more damaging testimony from people who were inside the trump national security apparatus. >> shannon: i thought it was interesting that he was actually on the call. he was sort of pressed about a couple of things about edits to the call which "the new york times" says he was able to make some edits to the call and also the conversation about moving to this more secure server. he said in each case, the edits that weren't made that he wanted and the call being moved, he said there wasn't any malicious intent or any cover-up they are. that can be a ray of hope for this white house because it sounds like he didn't think there was anything nefarious going on inside those calls often were moved to another area. wasn't in day thing because this president early on in 2017 not happy about the cause with leaders of mexico and australia. >> that is certainly the case. he actually thought they were too many edits, too many of those and he wanted to add more detail and he said specifically

that the word company had came up, paying hunter biden rather impressive sums of money and that hadn't been included in the partial transcript for the rough transcript that was released. there is certainly going to be ammunition for supporters in these closed hearings or rather these open hearings on wednesday and friday to press all of these witnesses about. they are frankly going to be more evidence that will be supportive of the arguments against what the president did and that's one of the reasons the democrats who are in charge of the committee are pulling these three witnesses at the very start of the hearing. >> shannon: regardless of the g.o.p. would like to see, they decide who the witnesses are going >> shannon: we are all tuned in next week and watching that. i want to ask you about former new york city mayor michael bloomberg. looks like he is flirting very seriously this time with getting in. who in the democratic field could be most effective today?

>> the person who is most directly affected as former vice president biden because the mayor is a pretty moderate centrist guy and that is the lane that biden is trying to pursue. and one of the reasons we are told by people who are in the bloomberg camp that he is looking very serious, i can't imagine he wouldn't run at this point, sending staffers down to get on the ballot in alabama and for him to pull back now, it would not make him look very serious. it seems to me that one of the reasons and his aides say one of the reasons he is doing this is because quite frankly back in march, he was going to get in and then decided not to when he saw biden was going to get in the race and thought he was going to be too difficult to compete against. now a few months later, biden seems like a somewhat weakened candidate in a shaky candidate and bloomberg thinks maybe he

can replace biden has the choice of centrist democrats for the nomination. >> shannon: thank you very much and of course this is the time in the show when we liked to tease ahead and let people know what you have on sunday, put up a graphic for that, not here on the monster while but let me check and see, maybe it's over here. bear with me, not trying to show off here. just a shot of the capital. trying to follow in the footsteps of other people who have worked here on the wall. no, just showing sixth avenue here in new york. i think it might be in the one place no other anchor has been able to look yet. i know there have been a lot of fill ins able to walk all around and touched off and you guys have done a magnificent job but that's only part of the studio but has anyone mastered the buttons? there it is. this weekend, chris talks to two members of the house intelligence committee. patrick maloney, that is this sunday on your local fox

>> shannon: a new treatment targeting cystic fibrosis could turn the potentially life-threatening disease into a manageable condition. officials with the food and drug administration say a three drug combination that scientists say improves lung function, also shows signs of targeting the genetic roots of the disease instead of just working on the symptoms. one of the patients was going to start a new treatment is

25-year-old lainey from baltimore. was just five years old when she was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. she is hoping this new drug will give her a longer life and more energy and not feel so sick all the time. great to have you with us on what sounds like a very good bit of a news with regard to what you are living with. can you start by telling us what your day is like, what your life has been like impacted by this disease? >> first i want to think you for having me. like you said, i have had it since i was five months old so growing up, definitely has been difficult. as i was younger, i could kind of do normal things, be athletic, hang out with my friends. the past few years for sure, my lung function has definitely gone down, doing simple tasks like walking up a set of stairs were trying to work out like i used to is not so easy anymore, definitely harder to breathe and catch my breath and do the normal thing a 25-year-old would want to be doing, not working

right now, things like that. >> shannon: for your entire lifetime, there has been talk about something that would be hopeful as a miracle drug, a miracle treatment and know everything i've read about this and you are going to know much more than i do, it sounds extremely promising. i read an article about doctors patients talking through this and things that might actually be what we've been waiting for. what are your hopes? >> and is one of those groundbreaking things that has happened in the see if community. i will say it is targeting a 90% of the people with see if. so it is not a cure, they were still a lot that has to be done, 10% of people with cf. don't have this modulator which is a drug that they have come out with to try to help and do this miraculous thing they say it's going to do so obviously, want to shout those people out because it is not a cure and they need something also. we still have to keep fighting but it is extremely helpful. about to start -- i had a

doctors appointment yesterday, i was cleared and insurance approved a new drug for me. so i will hopefully be starting within the next week or two and is definitely something i am so humbled by him so excited for and really, i think it's going to make a huge difference for so many people. >> shannon: what i've read is that the fda is ahead of schedule on this one, it's been so promising they wanted to make sure they got it to patience like he was quickly as they could and always great to hear that insurance covers it because i can't imagine the cost of a drug like this but it seems like everybody has bought in on the fact that this is legitimate, at least something to help you manage while there is not actually a cure. i understand it will help with symptoms and you do have some drugs to do that now but it might give some of them root causes, how could that make this difference in what you've been using to exist at this point? >> a lot of the treatments i do are preventative, trying to prevent infections and bacteria,

getting in the lungs and then when you do get sick, you have to go on ivs and you can be resistant to those. so this will hopefully without getting too technical, the gene kind of manipulates the protein to act normally as if i was somebody without cystic fibrosis. obviously, it is going to work for some people a little bit better than others and is going to be an individual basis i think here. but they are seeing lung function increasing ten to 13.8% which is astronomical. they have never seen anything like that. that's what we are hoping for. >> shannon: i know having hope is a big part of being able to move forward with something as challenging as this so we admire you and your hard work, we are so excited you are part of this new wave of this drug and we pray and hope that it is everything you need to live a long healthy strong life. thank you. our journalists have been monitoring this trump campaign

continuing today's new transcript is breaking right no now. our senior producer for capitol hill has all the details. let's start with this, why are these transcripts so important? >> the two transcripts we got today are from alexander been men who walks on this national security council in charge of european affairs and also from fiona hill who resigned over the summer. she was the russia advisor ther there. raise concerns about the telephone call that the president had with the leader of ukraine. he was very concerned about that and reported his concerns to nfc council almost immediately. he also said that his interpretation was that they were basically trying to do some bidding there on behalf of these outside forces to try to get an investigation into the bidens. fiona hill, what she says in her remarks here, it's a lot of secondhand stuff where she is relaying what john bolton the

former national security advisor said. i'm going to read you two things here. accused the ambassador to the european union and mick mulvaney of cooking up a drug deal to get to the bidens and also said that bolton and rudy giuliani was a hand grenade. that's what they said during that fiona hill alleged in the transcripts. neither one of those witnesses will testify next week. >> shannon: word this afternoon republican congressman jim jordan is moving on to the house until committee. what is that all about? >> going to be moving over there because they are trying to get the best team on the field. house speaker nancy pelosi could have vetoed this move, she did not do that and so what republicans are trying to do is get their best match up. democrats are taking issue with this and this is from a democratic gate. president trump wanted somebody who would cover up and defend his behavior from his superiors no matter how horrifying jim jordan has the resume.

and to get some context here, that is a reference to a lawsuit about what jim jordan allegedly may have known when he was a wrestling coach at ohio state and there were allegations of sexual abuse. to be clear, jim jordan was never accused of anything, it's what he allegedly may have known and jordan has just responded saying jim jordan never saw any kind of sexual abuse and if he had, he would have dealt with it. that right there is emblematic of just how intense this is when they are going back to this decision with jim jordan and the allegations of ohio state some years ago just as he has promoted to the intelligence committee. >> shannon: this whole thing is really ratcheting up, the tensions on capitol hill as if they weren't already. thank you very much. with the impeachment inquiry continuing on the hill, some in ukraine saying they are worried about their country's future. recently returned from mckee avenue the winner in all of this is vladimir putin. >> came to power in 2,000, 67

years old and officials say they just believe that his standing will continue to grow around the world. >> when we arrived, it didn't take long to see that ukrainians are concerned about their future. a new president took office just months ago promising to weed out corruption and a country known for the word. a former deputy finance minister under russian president boris yeltsin. he believes ukrainian chaos equals a window for russia. we sat down with him. >> ukraine is an obstacle in relations between. >> he says it may not be intentional, but president trump is helping president putin. >> trump is having working relations. >> just five years ago, downtown was in flames as a revolution

began. ultimately, took control of eastern ukraine and the two countries continue to be at war to this day. with the wilson center in washington, d.c. she says the winner between the united states and ukraine is vladimir putin. >> it is giving him more leverage in this situation. we saw president trump at the press conference at the u.n. general assembly saying i hope that you and vladimir putin can work out your problems together as if it was a little squabble. >> russia doesn't only benefit from ukraine. when they withdrew from the iran nuclear deal, vladimir putin was waiting in the wings. when they failed to send a missile defense system to turkey, made a pricey deal with the country's president. now the u.s. wants out of syria and russia is all in looking to become a power broker the middle east. >> has given them the opportunity and the courage reaching out to them for suppor support. >> trump says he has been consistent on the russia.

the two men last met face-to-face in june where trump was pressed in front of the russian president about election interference in 2016. the narrative has changed from russian interference in the election to ukrainian interference. that is something president trump discussed on that july 25th call, central to the president's own impeachment battle. >> shannon: thank you. critical reaction at a buffalo wild wings killed one worker and sent at least five people to the hospital. local officials urging anyone who is at the restaurant last night to have a check them out. burlington massachusetts outside of boston. a cleaning chemical in the kitchen was making people sick. the employee who died was apparently trying to mop that solution and get it out of the restaurant. a buffalo wild wings spokesperson said they are shocked and saddened by what happen and they are cooperating

with investigators. breaking news now, monitoring president trump speaking at a campaign event in atlanta. we understand he is talking about the democrats. >> president trump: in three years, the broken washington establishment has done in more than 30 years. we have created ex .7 million new jobs since the election, a number that if i would have said that to the fake news media back then, look at all those cameras. i would've said that during the campaign, i would've been excoriated. they would've gone wild. 6.7 million new jobs, think of that. since the election. last month, the african-american unemployment rate reached the lowest level ever recorded in the history of our country. how do you lose that argument in a debate?

the african-american youth unemployment and this was so important to me. was 60 or 70%. has now reached the lowest number ever recorded in the history of our country. doing really well. the african-american poverty rate has reached an all-time historic low. lowest it's ever been. for the first time ever, most new hires of prime working age are minorities and women. first time that's ever happened. wages are rising really fast, up 9% since the election. a number that was unthinkable and rising fast as for low income workers. proportionately, they are rising the fastest with a low income worker. who would've thought this could happen? almost 2.5 million americans have been lifted out of poverty since my election including 150,000 african-american children.

150,000. when i hear 150,000, a lot of people don't know what that means. means we feel up to yankee three times. that's a lot of people. to bring investment to neglected communities, we have cut a record number of job destroying regulations, more than any administration in history even though we have been here for a short while by comparison. we passed a massive tax cuts for working families, saving the typical family of $42,000 a year and over the last two years, my administration has also provided more than $8 billion in contracts and financing to minority-owned small businesses which alone has resulted in a minimum of 20,000 brand-new beautiful jobs. >> shannon: the president speaking in atlanta at a campaign event there. he gives us the news, we will

get back in. in the meantime, a year ago today, a fire started in california spread quickly and killed more people than any other fire in the states modern history. we are going to talk to a woman whose home burned down. she had to go on the run and we will see where things stand today now and that devastated town of paradise. at bayer,

we make aspirin to help save lives during a heart attack... so it never stops the heart of a family. at bayer, this is why we science. va mortgage rates have dropped to near 50-year lows. newday usa can help you refinance your mortgage and save thousands a year. newday's va streamline refi makes it fast and easy because there's no income verification, no appraisal, and no out of pocket costs. i urge you to call newday usa now.

>> shannon: it has been one year since the deadliest fire in california's modern history. killed at least 85 people, burning down homes, schools and nearly the entire town of paradise about 80 miles north of sacramento. the fire started in the early hours of a thursday morning and raised for two and a half weeks. this video is from that first day. we saw so many people trying to escape the flames while driving through what essentially is a health scape at its worst burning 80 football fields worth of land every minute and they eventually burned out an area about the size of chicago. thousands of homes destroyed, people just starting to rebuild a year later. one of those people said that she was the scariest thing and she's ever gone through. she evacuated her mom, her son, and a bunch of animals. right now living in an rv

because they don't expect their new home to be built anytime before may of next year. angela joins us now live from paradise for an update, great to have you with us today. >> thank you, it is good to be here. >> shannon: talk us through your experience. we are glad you were in one piece and we know there is so much that you lost, people most important to you and you were home from work that day or it would've been nearly impossible to get back. you had your son, your mother, all your animals. i know when you never did locate the tell us how you are doing a year later and your hopes for rebuilding. >> i am very hopeful. we have signed the plans but we still have a lot of hoops to jump through before we can actually get the home back up here. i am ready to come home. >> shannon: we cannot imagine what it's like to go through this.

to look around and see everything that you knew, 80 to 90% of that, the town entirely wiped out, we can't begin to imagine what it's like. what about your decision to stay there? for some people, it was too painful and they left. >> to be honest, there was no question of coming back. this is where home is. we have the keys to the new house for two main new house one year to the day of the fire. i have pictures of my mom and i holding up our new keys happy. this is where i want to retire. this is where i want to live and have my family around the holidays and it's a great community. it's a community like no other.

school was canceled. a spokesperson blames a maintenance update. t-mobile called it a third party vendor issued. at&t didn't respond. verizon told us to contact the telecom vendor and in a statement posted this morning, the company wrote that a server failed on valentine's day. when it was reactivated, those messages got blasted out. the company has deleted that statement and has not commented about why. tomorrow will mark three decades since the fall of the berlin wall. the former barrier dividing west germany and communist east germany. secretary of state mike pompeo visited the former border and help to unveil a statue of former president ronald reagan at the u.s. embassy in berlin. overlooks the location where the president famously called on the soviet leader to tear down this wall. >> we welcome change in openness, and we believe that freedom and security go togethe together. that the advance of human

liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace. >> a remarkable record of communism's failure to win over people who have experienced its tyranny. here, an old man a risked death to escape the communist shackles. a gallant bid by the red border control. >> there was one sign the soviets could make that would be unmistakable that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. general secretary gorbachev, if you seek peace and prosperity for eastern europe, if you seek liberalization, come here to this gate. mr. gorbachev, open this gate. mr. gorbachev, tear down this wall.
