protocol and willing to puerto stuff out there. that's the way he wins, in my opinion. griff: it goes a long way, remember, republicans have been upset about transparency as we get ready to hear from these witnesses from behind closed doors. were there things going on that the american people didn't know about? we're going to find out. this is obviously -- ed: yesterday the news was republicans wanting to put their witnesses out. a they want hunter biden and others to make this a fair investigation, not just looking at the president. but already adam schiff rejecting basically all those republican witnesses out of hand. i'm going to have devin nuñes noon today, the live eastern on my show to see what republicans plan to do heading into these hearings. in the meantime, the president yesterday remember all the big deal that the mainstream media made about the world series and the booing, then the president

of all the impeachment stuff going on in washington in. >> i think it's ridiculous, i think it's unfair, and i wish they would focus on getting stuff done rather than harassing the president. griff: now, that's significant. i watched the game last night, talked to a couple, he was tattooed up and down his arms, this is what he had to say, you know, i've worked so hard for what i've got, and i don't want to give it up. we'll see. jedediah: this is what i say when i talk about how this is a story that the media in d.c. loves politicians in new york. we love this story about impeachment, bum when you talk to people who are actually out there, i don't know that they're following the probe. i don't know that's on the forefront of their minds. what they really see in large part are the issues that affect them day-to-day, so i think it's interesting they got these

the ukraine/u.s. treaty e that we ratified in 2000, the second big witness i think that's important are any witnesses that really relate to the criminal origins of the russia collusion probe. and, you know, like nelly other and only of those that have been named. at the end of the day, if they can do that, it kicks the legs out from underneath an obstruction article. these are important witnesses. and as far as the whistleblower, you know, the whistleblower made himself or herself a material witness. we node to know, the american people need to know who did he coordinate with, what were his motivations, this really just a political act. jedediah: check out this portion of a letter from representative adam schiff to representative devin nuñes. it reads: the impeachment inquiry will not serve as a vehicle to carry out the same

sham investigations into the bidens or debunked conspiracy that president trump pressed ukraine to conduct for his personal political benefit. what do you make of that statement? >> i begin to my more and more of george orwell. the sham, in my opinion, is this whole idea of an impeachment being used for political purposes. again, i come back to basics. if you can establish there was any claim for criminal activity going on between hunter biden, joe biden and that country, it doesn't matter whether he's running for king or president, if he's cometted criminal acts, we have a right, the justice department has a right to get that information. and, frankly, the congress should want that information. when it comes to the other side of this, if you can show that, again, that it was a criminal underpinning because of abuse of the fisa process or because of release of information, then, you know, these are all material

witnesses. and i think that statement sort of turn the world on its head. griff: well, robert, obviously chairman schiff is blocking these witnesses, but if you look back two years ago, schiff of had a very different opinion of things, he was disturbed by subpoenas issued by republicans. listen to what he had to say. >> i don't really understand what they hope to accomplish from this, but i am disturbed at this quite evident double standard of subpoenaing agents for public effect. i think that's really what was designed here rather than in the story purpose. invest story. griff: very interesting when he's in the minority. what do you make of it? >> well, consistency is not mr. schiff's strong suit, and i think that's obvious. the sad part is having one part of an -- having run part of -- the first, you know, condemning fact is that the democrats have chosen to run this through the

intelligence committee. there's no excuse for that. the intelligence committee was established for investigations of the cia and fbi specifically in the mid '70s x ironically, those are the two parties they're not investigating. and to throw the cloak of secrecy over an impeachment with intelligence and then to sort of selectively bring witnesses out and decline to allow republican to bring their witnesses forward, it really makes a ham of the process. the sham is not allowing those material witnesses to testify. ed: all right, robert charles, we appreciate your insight this morning. meanwhile, a major medical breakthrough. new evidence shows vitamin e oil may be to blame for the deadly vaping outbrake that has now claimed -- outbreak that has now claimed 40 lives. >> tech: so you think this chip is nothing to worry about?

patients, out of four patients total of three were able to bring us the cartridges, and we send them for analysis to department of health, and they all came back vitamin e acetate. so it is this vitamin e that is in oil, and it is not supposed to be inhaled. yes, you can digest it and yes, you can put it on your skin, but it should not be inhaled because the boiling point of vitamin e is around 360 degrees fahrenheit, and once it vaporizes, it quickly comes back to its original oil form when it is in the lungs. jedediah: so what does it do? what it actually doing in your lungs? >> so what especially does is it blocks the oxygenation, it cause almost your airways and it's

causing inflammation because it doesn't belong there. it's a lipid, so it can give you -- [inaudible] if. jedediah: wow. >> yes. i mean, we still have a lot to learn and investigate and do research on -- jedediah: let me ask you this, there, because it said that 82% of the samples also contained thc. so my mind immediately goes to, okay, 40 do we know it's the vitamin e? could it be the combination of both? is there certainty that vitamin e is the culprit here? enter it seems like it is the culprit because it is, there are people out there doing different can type of i would imagine cartridges, and some of them may be actually regulated. in certain states thc, cannabis,

is legal. so if they are using those, we don't see any -- at least to my knowledge, all the patients i had used fake cartridge in new york. so therefore, we are leaning towards vitamin e at this point. it's not just the thc. jedediah: well, thanks so much for being here. we're going to continue to follow it. a coffee business booming under the trump economy. the cofounders share their success story and the difference they have made for vets everywhere. coming up next.

so-called whistleblowers who frame the discussion. and the president has said i'm just going to release the transcriptses, i'm going to will let you read for yours with, so here we are with an entire industry. it was in the basement of the capitolling now it's going public. all based on a reality that never came through which there was no quid pro quo if, ultimately, no investigation, politically motivated investigation. i think this is the smart move. it's the right move. it's the follow on to the great reporting you did, ed, of who do the republicans want to call. go on the offense, make them answer questions and makesome something the public is exposed to. i'm standing to the a venetian, but i can see right across the street is the mirage, and guess what in.

republicans' counsel, a republican representative at least bring their case,s this is not an inquiry, this is an inquisition. and that is precisely what the president is facing right now. griff: here's ultimately what schiff says, quote: the impeachment inquiry and the committee will not seven as vehicle for any member to carry out the same sham investigations into the binds or debunk conspiracies about 20 service u.s. election interference. let's not forget that it is the approval of schiff for these witnesses. it was voted on in a resolution. >> yeah, of course. so, i mean, i think -- by the way, one of the clip i love that you guys played earlier on in the show was the clip that went to the football game like we did

yesterday, the big lsu game, and they asks attendees what they thought, and everyone said of course they're treating the president unfairly, of course they're gaming it for their own benefit. that's very detrimental to a public trial. impeachment is a political tool. if you have not convinced the american people that your cause is righteous or at least above board, then it become very problematic. and they already have a weakened presidential field. if you're putting adam schiff on the field in a big game and he's ultimately -- [inaudible] and they don't like the product they see on the field, it's going to hurt them. ed: we're talking about practice, he say. that's an old clip are.

ultimately, the benefit of the doubt will not be given to them. let's bring it back to the military, ultimately someone in an air-conditioned office throws them under the bus. it's the same principle in policing. if you don't believe your mayor will have your back when you make a tough call, you're going to say why would i put my career and life on the line for someone who's going to use me as a pawn later on? it's the opposite of what giuliani did with the broken windows theory where he said even a small infraction will be enforced. if you can jump a fare, any other petty crime is now fair game. the police say i don't want any part of it, i'm just going to do the mayor crimes, and then the social fabric starts to tear apart. ed: pete, i'm just discan

continue with expected testimony from maria yovanovitch who is the former ambassador to ukraine ukraine. yesterday congressman devin nunes the ranking member on the intelligence committee sent a letter requesting testimony from several people including hunter biden, david hale, the under undersecretary of state for political affairs, and from the whistleblower who first alleged president trump behaved improperly while speaking by phone with ukraine's president. now, democrats say they're considering which of those requests they're going to grant. president trump continues to call the inquiry a witch hunt. the president told reporters on saturday he has plans to release a transcript from another past call with ukraine's president. >> we have another transcript coming out which is very important. they asked for it, and i gladly give it. there's never been a president who's been so transport. this is a witch hunt. >> the president says the additional transcript of his conversation with ukraine's leader is likely to come out

either monday or tuesday. ed, jed and griff a busy day this week in washington. ed: thank you. interesting because the president may be counter counterprogramming a little bit what's going to happen wednesday with those live hearings everyone will be focused on. on tuesday he's here in tuesday giving a bug speech to the new york economic club, allows him to tout the stock market, the economic gains, unemployment. other things that will be part of his case for reelection in 2010 and then also he's indicating on tuesday the president wants to release the transcript of the second phone call with the ukrainian leader saying i'm being transparent and there's no "there" there. jedediah: i think he should just comply with the investigation, should just release as much as he can but not necessarily linger on and talk about it. he should talk about the issues. say, "oh, sure. you want this information? sure. let's talk about the economy, immigration." so that those running now will be focused on issues. they're focused on impeachment 24/7, seven days a week. people are going to have be inspired to go out and vote.

griff: we're talking about the unfair process and the president president's leading the charge to rally republicans and conservatives to push back. the president's son, donald trump jr. speaking out about the inquiry and conservatives fighting back. listen. >> you know, the impeachment probe right now, guess what? that started on november 9th, 2016. whatever they can do to backfill it. they couldn't get my father, they would have loved to have taken me down. and i just remember going through it. you know, it took me maybe 41 years to realize i was a lot more like my father than anyone would have called before that, including ourselves. but you put us in that corner and we fight back. we push back hard. i mean, i certainly did that during the probe. my father certainly does that. and i think it's been a great thing in the sense that it's shown conservatives that you can actually fight back. you don't just have to turn the other cheek. griff: you can see more of that interview tonight at eight p.m., a new time for life, liberty, and leaven, 8 p.m. jedediah: don jr. has been doing intense interviews out there.

he is certainly not backing down down. powerful interview, looking forward to seeing this tonight. ed: he's got the new book "triggered" out there and he's talking about the president counterpunching and not backing down. jedediah: he's doing a lot of counterpunching on his own. ed: and look the president remember took some heat at the world series game in washington, the swamp, if you will, there's a whole lot of democrats in the democratic steady. the president yesterday went to the lsu-alabama game down there in tuscaloosa, and the reception was a whole lot warmer. jedediah: you can hear the crowd cheering for the president and for melania trump at that game. and you know what's interesting for me is that another network, cnn, was talking to football fans about the impeachment probe and i have a sense that they may have been surprised by what people had to say. let's take a listen. >> no, i don't. when the man's trying to help

the country and trying to find a situation to throw out his character to help the country, ain't no perfect president. so everybody got they claws. but i think he been treated badly. reporter: can i ask what you think of all the impeachment stuff going on in washington? >> i think it's ridiculous, unfair, and i wish they would focused on getting stuff done instead of harassing the president. ed: get stuff done. gen said a -- jed said a moment ago like focus on the economy maybe. jedediah: i think people are starting to notice there was an agenda to get rid of this president on day one which really removed any credibility from anything that came thereafter because they said, "well, you decided you didn't like this guy before you even had information that should make you inform that decision. so it's interesting to see, and i think that when you talk to people around the country they're not talking about impeachment. they are talking about issues, and there is this typical disconnect between the voters and the people that are following this and having dinner table conversations and the media who cover the story. ed: like the whistleblower's

lawyer with that tweet from 2017 cnn's going to help us and all that, that does look like what donald trump jr. was talking about. griff: what's interesting, though, is this is not a battleground state of, you know, iowa, new hampshire, pennsylvania, ohio. this is tuscaloosa, alabama. what did you think you were going to find when you went there? but certainly a little bit of affirmation from folks that believe that president trump has done good things for the country has listened to the economy, has given opportunities where some were not available. and it's fascinating, too, we talked a little about this before, we want to talk about it again, j.p. morgan chairman and c.e.o., jamie dimon, a very successful billionaire is starting to push back in the interview he was doing saying that, you know, you can't just vilify people simply for success success. griff: yeah. it's -- ed: yeah, it's interesting because michael bloomberg now looks like he's getting into the race. he's a billionaire, maybe that plays into elizabeth warren's claim. we heard a.o.c., you see here there in the picture campaigning

for bernie sanders in iowa yesterday saying people like michael bloomberg -- she didn't name him, i believe, but people are trying to get in now and buy this. that plays into the populism that sanders and warren are trying to tap into but it's interesting that someone like jamie dimon who is not clearly a democrat or republican, he's going to listen listen to all sides is maybe playing to what michael bloomberg is saying is that if the democrats go too far left they're going to go off the cliff and that's what president trump is hoping, that it's sanders or warren as the democratic nominee. and jamie dimon is on this television program saying that he's tired of people being vilified not just because they're rich but because they succeeded in america. watch. >> you know, most people, not all of them, should vilify nazis but you should vilify people worked hard to accomplish things so my comment is i think in american society we're attacking people all the time. a person is going to be a target in this day and age of certain politicians and stuff like that, but the notion that i'm not a

patriot or that somebody's -- that's just dead wrong. ed: and people like him who are at the top of the economic scale are tired of being punished for being successful. you know what? people in the middle class are tired about it as well because they know it's not just jamie dimon and michael bloomberg who are going to pay more in taxes. the middle class is going to pay more taxes if someone like elizabeth warren is elected and has a medicare for all plan that costs -- guess what? -- $52 trillion. there's only so much rich peopl. griff: it's not going to cost the middle class a penny, by the way, . jedediah: not just people born with a silver spoon, they're attacking people who started at the bottom and climbed their way up. so many people around the country, entrepreneurs, very successful now, have plenty of money but they worked so hard to get there and i hate to break it to a lot of these democrats, they, too, are successful. elizabeth warren, bernie sanders these people have been a success as well as. so should they now criminalize their own success and say i'm part of the problem? you should be glorifying that. this is still america, as far as i'm concerned, and we should be rooting for people to make successes and to climb those

ladders. griff: jamie dimon is really positioning this as the democrats are saying that success is a sin, and he's saying that is a bad message to send. jedediah: it sure is. ed: and bernie sanders has been in public life for a long time, and he's got three homes and he's a millionaire. jedediah: he's vilifying people that have the same success that he has. a headline now, beginning with a fox news alert. live pictures on the cheats of hong kong. a 24th straight weekend of pro- pro-democracy protests. there are reports of protesters vandalizing a train station and police firing tear gas to break up rallies. it's unclear if anyone is hurt in this latest round of violence violence. yesterday seven pro-democrat lawmakers were detained. and another studio evacuated as crews battle an intense brush fire in hollywood. more than 30 acres were consumed by flames. smoke could be seen billowing near the famous hollywood sign. one first responder was hurt.

paid attention to university of wisconsin free beacon did a great whiteup on this a free college makes it worse for -- 86% of the families in america. it's not a great policy. it is a great policy if you say, let's help out the middle class, let's not do free college for everybody 'cause that helps the billionaires. let me show -- it hurts the middle class too. jedediah: he's not a moderate if you look across spectrum at everyone if you include republicans and whatnot but this stage he is a moderate compared to the likes of bernie sanders, for example, who wants no cap whatsoever on free college and compared to those who are saying oh, guess what? your private insurance, i don't care about that. he's out there saying, well, maybe there should be a role for people to have their private insurance. does he not stand out as a moderate on this debate stage? >> no, because he's not not allowed to change the definitions of words. he may have a lot of skills, he may be able to speak multiple languages but he can't change the definition of words. if you want to give free college

to people who make less than a hundred thousand a year and then reduced under 150,000 a year he doesn't even get into how people will manipulate their own incomes to be able to take advantage of things which is a terrible idea, and there is no difference in the end goal. he doesn't want medicare for all all; right? he wants medicare for all who want it. the end goal is still government run health care. that's not a moderate position. obamacare was never the moderate position. it is a far-left, progressive position. and it can't be just reframed as moderate because bernie sanders and elizabeth warren are in this race. ed: tony, let's play word association then. i'll give you a word. bloomberg. all of a sudden trying to shake things up. buttigieg may not be a moderate as you suggest but was trying for the moderate lane as was joe biden. now michael bloomberg says i'm kind of worried this party's going too far to the left. how does he change the dynamics of this race if he officially gets in? >> oh, i think he does a lot, and i think part of the reason he's in this race is because joe biden can't carry the balance to

the end zone. he cannot win this game, and he's an opportunity, figures i've got $53 billion and nothing to lose. i'm not busy. i'll get in and try and have some fun. but when you dig into bloomberg positions again this is somebody who thinks an assault weapon is something that can hold a lot of bullets and shoot fast. there's no understanding of even the concept to which they speak. but he will get people to listen to him because the way he goes about an approach -- and this is what works for pete buttigieg -- the way he engages a conversation is refreshing when you've got bernie sanders screaming at you "get off my lawn" and elizabeth warren lying to you and telling you how she's not going to raise taxes when you know she's lying. she has a better chance of proving herself native american than proving that she won't raise taxes on the middle class. griff: tony, listen. we have another debate coming up in about ten days with democrats democrats. we'll see if buttigieg changes his tune. thanks, tony. jedediah: news alert. families of nine americans killed by a drug cartel are fleeing mexico and heading to

national security crisis to this country every single day. last year c.b.p. seized 705,000 pounds of drugs, 3,000 weapons, 16,000 criminal illegal aliens and 1200 gang members. that is a negative impact to our public safety every single day at the hands of these cartels. griff: commissioner, the president, president trump is calling for waging a war on the cartels down there. we saw last month police executed, we saw el chapeau, the drug lord's son, being released at the hands of pressure from the cartels and now this mormon horrific massacre. is it time for a war on these cartels? >> it's time for us to look at this from a united states government approach just like we do the same level of commitment and veracity as we do in counterterrorism and cyber in this country. we need to come together. we need to come together as a united states government and put maximum pressure on these cartels to take them out of

business. they are impacting the national security of this country every single day. griff, that's why i say, every town, city, and state is a border town, city, and state. what happens at the southwest border, what crosses into our country impacts every single major metropolitan city in this country, and the american people need to realize that. griff: i want to ask you, mark, we have some of the 2020 candidates on the campaign trail talking about drastic changes in immigration policy. listen. >> on our first day in office we will restore the legal status of the 1.8 million young people eligible for the daca program and the i.c.e. raids that are terrorizing communities. >> i am open to suspending deportations, particularly as a way to push congress. griff: mark, i want to be careful not to drag you into the politics of a presidential race,

but when you look at halting deportations, abolishing i.c.e., what is the impact these policy changes will have? >> yeah, as a law enforcement official i'm not going to talk about special candidates' viewpoints. what i will tell your listeners any policy that removes incentives decriminalizes the legal entryin this country is going to make this country less safe. we just talked about the cartels cartels. the cartels are exploiting the humanitarian crisis every single day. this will absolutely concrete more incentive -- the crisis that we just experienced, we're going to experience crisis 2.0 on the humanitarian side and the cartels once again will exploit the loopholes created by de deincentivizing that. the rule of law will go out the window, we'll have no integrity in the system, and will absolutely negatively impact the public safety of this country, absolutely. griff: a last fast question, commissioner. we've seen california where i

was in avalon 2, the detention there in california, moving to kick privately funded centers out but i.c.e. wanting to not cooperate. what is your reaction? >> look. if you actually have been to these centers, they are professionally run, they provide a absolutely increased level of care that's commensurate with the people that are in there custody. i just simply disagree with that perspective. griff: commissioner mark morgan, acting commissioner, thank you very much for taking time, sir. >> you bet. thank you. griff: all right turkey's invading a new jersey neighborhood, breaking windows and attacking residents. now one major league player is blasting the democratic governor for the intrusion. but first, here is the quantico marine corps band performing " "country roads" on fox square. ♪ country roads, take me home to the place i belong

you think there is anything wrong with it. but, never in history, has anybody gone through this it's a witch-hunt and it should never happen to another president. griff: all this comes, by the way, when we are expecting to hear from some of the witnesses the republicans want to call. we saw the list yesterday that at least 14 people. that the republicans want to call from hunter biden to devin archer, to nellie ohr going all the way back. turns out that chairman of the intelligence committee adam schiff, who voted on the resolution to allow them to call these witnesses said i don't think we are going to get to them. ed: he has veto power that's one of the things the republicans are mad about. jedediah: president trump said here is the original transcript. the first transcript. now we got another one come out looking very transparent. you have that contrast with adam schiff saying we don't want to hear from these people. great parallel from the president. if i were him release as much information as possible. and shift over and focus on

the issues. look like the democrats look like they have had an agenda to get rid of this president on day one and not complying with the process because are they afraid of what those witnesses might a? griff: adam schiff put into ranking member devin nunes saying the impeachment inquiry and the committee will not serve as vehicles for any member to carry out the same sham investigations into the bidens or bebunked conspiracies about 2016 u.s.s. election interference that president trump pressed ukraine to conduct for his personal political benefit. ed: how can it not be relevant to call hunter biden. when the president, part of his whole reasoning here in the context of the first transcript of the call that we saw. we haven't seen the second one yet, was asking the ukrainian leader to investigate corruption. yes, the name of joe biden was invoked. came up during the call, but, in general, the president was saying there is a lot of corruption in ukraine. i want to make sure before we give this aid, millions and millions of dollars coming from u.s. taxpayers that you are actually cracking down on this.

now, did hunter biden do anything wrong? we simply don't know. did he earn that over $80,000 a month. obviously the president has suggested there was corruption. why not call hunter biden and show this is a fair investigation that is looking at all sides? and so, the other -- one of the other big witnesses that devin nunes and the republicans want is the whistleblower. the whistleblower kicked this whole thing off. we had a guest on earlier saying this is obviously material to the investigation. so the bottom line is how can you have a fair, thorough investigation that the american people can consider bipartisan or nonpartisan at least you call some, not all but at loos some of the republican witnesses? jedediah: how do you redeem any credibility on your case by saying i want to get to the bottotothe bottom of someth. inquiry to begin with. either you want to get to the bottom of it or you don't. or create a native without getting to the bottom of anything. you can't talk about the issues bift over to the issues when you are not trying to solve anything. the good news is that the american people are very consciencconscious of this.

has called northern mexico home for more than 50 years. he said, quote, the assets they have acquired down there are tremendous and to have to up and leave from one day to the next and leave all that behind, there is definitely a lot of sad people here. the a.p. reports most of those families traveled to phoenix and tucson on saturday. guys, it's unclear where they are going to settle down in the long term. back to you guys. ed: back to mark mayor death in washington. griff: it wasn't just this massacre. if you look back to last month there is a rise in violence. chapo's son being forced released froreleased from prisoe of violence. mark halperin responding to homark morgan responded.>> happr is humanitarian crisis it's that plus a national security crisis. it's time for us to look at this from a united states government approach just like we do the same level of commitment and veracity as we do our efforts against

counter-terrorism and signner this country. wthis -- cyber in this country. we need to come together as united states government and put maximum pressure on these cartels to take them out of business. they are impacting the national security of this country every single day. what happens at the southwest border? what crosses into our country impacts every single major metropolitan city in this country. the american people need to realize that. ed: remember when the democratic leadership said manufactured crisis? jedediah: interesting parallel. you have the president in 2016 talking about immigration. putting immigration on the forefront as a national security issue like really no one has done before. making that a priority. and then you have the parallel of democrats sitting under the talking about spending deportations. it's a manufactured crisis as you said before this is an issue also deeply concerning to some americans because of the potential violence coming across the border. because of the human trafficking and drug trafficking because of what is going on in mexico with these drug cartels. this is another issue where the president has shown

really strong leadership and democrats politically are going to have a hard time combating that. griff: more than 33,000 people were murdered in mexico last year. it was a record. they are on pace of 5% this year to top that. ed: another initiative from the president has been talking about how there are inner cities that have been abandoned by politicians over the years. big cities like baltimore, atlanta. the president on friday was in atlanta to reaching tout african-american voters ahead of the 2020 election. one of those stood up support of the president kimberly klacik based in baltimore. you remember on "fox & friends" over the summer she spoke out and brought us some of the videos that she had filmed herself near where she lives in inner city baltimore. where there were rather. rats. homes destroyed. trash everywhere. and local officials she claimed like congressman elijah cummings weren't doing enough. elijah couples has obviously since passed away. both administration officials like vice president pence, democratic lawmakers went to his funeral, honored his

service. this vehicle needs to be. kimberly klacik was on fox yesterday saying she is running for cummings seat in congress. watch. >> i'm excited. you know. we need changes. we need changes not just in baltimore but on capitol hill. i mean, look at what's going on down there, first of all, they are not getting any work done if we are going to be honest. also, we need stronger republican voices against socialism, against the squad, against, you know, just helping with his policies and draining the swamp. and i think, honestly, the american people need stronger voices on transparency within congress. griff: that's going to be a real david and goliath race because cummings wife is dna chairman of the democrats in maryland. we will see what happens. what's interesting was after her announcement, a little later in the day, we got a tweet from a cnn contributor april reince how know has been at the white house and

she has weighed in from time to time. this is the woman who created all the controversy that made donald trump go after rep cummings in baltimore. cummings never got over the attack on him in the city. it is all because of her. jedediah: the question is should she have tweeted that and waited in that respect. curious to what viewers think foxnews.com. what do you think of her commentary. what do you think of klacik's run and the comments she made and her approach to crime and approach to policy would actually be following in elijah cummings is it footsteps? ed: putting stop medicine up. may not have liked she exposed real problems in that district. she pointed out and president trump tweeted about her appearance on "fox & friends" that brought a lot of national attention. kimberly klacik brought us that news yesterday on the program anchor 12 noon eastern on saturday and sunday america's news headquarters. today we are going to have as our exclusive guest devin nunes. he will be previewing the big impeachment hearings. don't miss it coming up this

where the exits were shut down and lit on fire. we have bodies being put in as you wilsulfuric acid. these are the tactics of dangerous organizations that are targeting and terrorizing mexican citizens and americans as we are now seeing with these unfortunate nine dead americans, including three women and six children and it's absolutely appalling what's going on. this is something we can target and address. mark morgan, a friend of mine over there, working hard with border patrol was right in your previous segment. saying that we need to treat these organizations cartels as the terrorist organizations they are. because it would give our law enforcement and intelligence communities the tools we need to target them. anybody providing material support to them. we can take them out. it would limit their travel ability. it would limit their immigration ability it. would give our law enforcement personnel the tools to be able to target and take out these dangerous

organizations who are terrorizing americans and mexicans alike. jedediah: president trump tweeted on this on tuesday saying this is the time for mexico with the help of the united states to wage war on the drug cartels and wipe them off the face of the earth. we merely await a call from your great new president. so, what should the role of mexico and the mexican government be here? do they want our cooperation? what should our involvement be? talk about that potential collaboration and what it would mean? >> well, it's been great collaborating with mexican authorities to try to target and stop some of the flow coming across our border coming in from the northern triangle and that's been relatively successful in the last couple of months. what's happening is because the cartels profit making $100 million a week, the cartel moving through people through mccallen texas. they make millio million dollara dollars of a week moving people not drugs. they will continue to put pressure on these authorities in mexico. so, i think we need to act somewhat regardless of what

the mexican authorities are doing in order to target stopping these organizations who are harming our national security interests. we can do it in cop setter with the mexican authorities. but they are under fire. we have gotten these illicit organizations. who are using their power to taser people in mexico and authorities in mexico and in the process undermining our national security. i frankly am tired of bureaucrats in the state department sitting around waiting while the president seems to get it. the president seems to get that we need to recognize them as terrorist organizations but he has to have the white house and the state department actually refusing to do it. my question to the state department is why. if tom is a level four state as declared by the state department, saying that no american should travel there, literally across the rio grande river, what's holding the state department back from recognizing that the cartels, the gulf cartels or the any of the dangerous cartels should be recognized as the terrorist

organizations that they're. i think we should get behind the president in what we are trying to do to stop these dangerous cartels. jedediah: congressman, thanks for being here today and weighing in. we appreciate your input. thanks so much. >> thank you. jedediah: one of the americans' favorite fast time is fumbling. why are players not playing football like they used. to say how can we fix it. that's coming up next. most? ♪

you know, we talk about tackle football rates declining i think is 10%. but flag football rates have increased over 30% over that period of time. that's because the game is a great game. you can get out there. you have opportunity to learn plays. it's probably the most complex game in the world team sport in the world. and so, football is good for america. football is good for youth. let them play flag football while they are developing. if they are good enough to play tackle football once they get 14 or 15 years old. let them step into that the game is changing anyway. you can't hit quarterbacks anymore. there is no more helmet to helmet. the game is getting closer and closer to flag any way. let them develop through that. ed: the president was at that big lsu, alabama game yesterday. there was a lot of to do within the mainstream media about some of the booing for the president at the world series in very democratic washington. but i guess when you get

who succeeds target of certain politicians and stuff like that. the notion that i'm not a patriot or -- that's just dead wrong. ed: jp morgan ceo calling out vilifying. not just the rich but people who accomplish something. here is maria bartiromo. he and others are fed up with the rhetoric. >> they are. this is america. the place where we are supposed to understand the american dream. so what should we understand now that, yeah, you can have the american dream until you reach the highest of the high, then you have to stop. the dumbest thing i ever heard from bernie sanders was when he said no billionaire should be allowed in america. really? what should we do have all the billionaires go to china or russia. more billionaires in china than america. >> it's so absurd. if you look at that op-ed in the journal last week how elizabeth warren has wrecked the left, you really know a lot about what is behind this because elizabeth

warren comes out and tries to one-up aoc, one-up bernie sanders and in doing so vilified anybody who wants to follow the american dream and work as hard as they can to achieve great success. and i agree with jamie dimon. griff: she weighed in on whether or not billionaires should even exist. listen to this. >> bernie sanders says there should be no billionaires. do you agree with that? >> no. >> why not? >> look. somebody has a great idea, and they follow it through and they work hard and they building is, good for them. here's my view. you make it to the top, to the tip top, then the answer is pay a wealth tax, so that we can invest and create opportunities for everyone else. ed: she wants billionaires because she wants to tax them. jedediah: give all your money back.

griff: take something out of your bank account that's a wealth tax. >> one word for that, griff, the word is confiscation. that's what that is wealth tax confiscation. it's not worked in europe and not going to work here. the billionaires that i know and speak with all the time, they are not afraid to pay more in taxes. they will happily pay more in taxes. but when you come up to the fact that then you want to keep taxing and keep taxing. it's a slippery slope. and then start counting their dollars. that's what bill gates said last week. by the way, when you talk about all these pie in the sky ideas like the green new deal. like medicare for all that's cost not guilty trillions of dollars. medicare for all more than $50 trillion, the math doesn't make sense. it doesn't add up that you just going to tax 70,000 people or the ones at the tippy top to pay that tax. you won't pay for those ideas. you will have to tax the middle class. elizabeth warren, please start admitting it. please just recognize that we all are on to this and we recognize the taxes are going to have to go up for everybody in order to pay

for these ideas. people just want hun else in city. jedediah: i think a lot of entrepreneurs are going to hear this madness and secretly go out and vote for president trump. you know what? these democrats are fundamentally transform this country my kids and grand kids won't be able to reach the heights that i did. >> spot on. bingo, jed. bottom line, rich people, and i have had a few of them come over to me maria, don't tell anyone but here's the fact if elizabeth warren is the nominee i will have to vote for donald trump. and that's what i'm going to do. because it could not be more different capitalism vs. socialism. we're going to talk about that this morning on the futures. we have a big show coming up. we will talk with senator lindsey graham chairman of the senate judiciary committee. a lot of people know who is he going to call down to testify? he is the chairman of the committee. he has subpoena power. is he going to call hunter biden down? we're going to ask him that this morning. kevin mccarthy is going to break news. congressman and the house minority leader is basically making big moves ahead of those public hearings next week putting jim jordan in there. talking about who else is
