[national anthem] ♪ shining star ♪ no matter who you are ♪ shining bright to see ♪ lisa: dean is jamming out. pete: lisa is the shining star. dean cain and lisa booth this morning. lisa: thanks for having us. dean: i like that tie. pete: minnesota saturday. dean: i don't think the vikings are going to win.

pete: talk about debbie downer. pete: today is national milk day. dean: excellent. pete: in case you didn't know that. lisa: i put it in my coffee. dean: i like a little milk in my coffee. pete: nobody makes better milk than america. dean: i will have coffee with my milk. lisa: basically mine. pete: nothing better than a little whole milk cold. happy national milk day to everyone. going to build bones. that's important. that's what they say. we have a lot of news this morning in addition to the vikings and national milk day. if you have been paying attention this week the showdown with iran was escalating and then descalating. the president is still talking about why he took this action of guarding, first of all, defending our embassy there ultimately taking out qassem soleimani. democrats criticizing him saying we want to know more. well, he sat down with our

own laura ingraham last night. worth checking out the entire interview. but a portion of it has made news because he was willing to talk about what was targeted and maybe how many embassies. here is the president last night. >> don't the american people have a right to know what specifically was targeted without revealing methods and sources? >> i don't think so. but we will tell you that probably it was going to be the embassy in baghdad. >> they had large scale attacks planned for other embassies and if those were planned, why can't we reveal that to the american people? wouldn't that help your case? >> can i reveal that i believe it would have been four embassies. pete: i believe it would have been four embassies. i think it's been amazing to watch the level of criticism jumping on the word imminent, how many, how particular, when you are talking about someone like qassem soleimani who has decades of american blood on his hands. lisa: exactly a side show because democrats want to take the foe cut off the

fact that donald trump got a bad guy. a guy that petraeus said is just as big as all baghdad or just as big as usama bin laden. so this is huge for president trump to take him out. he had a limited window of time to do so. i also think what was interesting, petraeus said he didn't have the opportunity when he was general to take out soleimani. so, what president trump did was huge and so this whole debate about eminence is a distraction. it's a shiny object to say hey, take your attention away from what president trump did that was good as pizza, american blood on heir hands it's a shiny object. dean: if he cured cancer some of the democrats would be going oh my gosh what about you the cancer -- the medicine we have? what about this? pete: it would be a problem. dean: something he did here was a fantastic thing. anybody who has been over there and spent time over there knows how much terror that man fomented in the whole region. so i think it was a great thing. of course, people are saying that he should have told congress and, you know, i love his soundbite on that.

they would leak like a sieve and, of course, he would get away. i think it was a great shot. i'm glad he did it. people at the rally. i was at the rally in toledo this week and they were very happy as well. pete: we will get to that dean has great interviews from the rally. he was there. congressional approval should he have sought it or not. the president has a clear opinion on that answered talked to laura about that as well. >> here we are split-second timing, executed like nobody has seen in many, many years on soleimani. can you imagine they want us to call up and speak to crooked corrupt politician adam schiff. oh, adam, we have somebody that we have been trying to get for a long time. we have a shot at him right now. could we meet so that we can get your approval, adam schiff? he would say well, let's do it in a couple day us, okay. let's meet in a couple of days it. doesn't work that way number one. number two, they leak. niferg we give will be leaked immediately. pete: this also goes to your

point of eminence. if general petraeus never had a chance to strike him because soleimani was never so bold during that time to actually be in iraq yet was it imminent in 2004 or 2005 or 2006 or 2007 when we were discovering the fact that efps were being directed to the highest levels of the government to shias to kill americans. i would argue 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011. all those moments president trump saw that president trump knew they were planning something. was it going to happen that day or week, we don't know. not everyday that soleimani shows up at the baghdad airport bold enough to be seen there you have the intelligence to strike him and take that moment. now we know the iranians want no part of measures. they know if you take american blood the next step is the fire and furry of the united states. that's the signal we want them to see. lisa: also, you look at how terrible and worthless congress is. so they criticize president trump on the eminence but then the house resolution

does nothing. it's nonbinding. they make all this noise and fuss and ultimately produce nothing. moving on to additional news about this, we have new photos showing the aftermath of the u.s. airstrike that killed qassem soleimani. this as we learned u.s. special ops tried to kill another top iranian commander that same night. dean: iran's minister now admitting human error led to the deadly crash of the passenger plane. pete: our own greg palkot joins us this morning. >> a whole bunch of news guys this morning. we are in fact at the kiev airport at makeshift memorial for those killed in that tragic crash wednesday of ukrainian international airlines plane. there is relief, sadness and anger at the amazing climb down overnight by the iranian regime about this crash. remember, they had claimed for days it was not their fault. now, they say they are

responsible for the downing of the plane. there is 176 people on board. they describe their use of a missile against the plane as a human error. in a tweet coming from the iranian foreign minister is zarif, he tries to do blame-shifting a bit of a quote here. this comes at a time of crisis caused by u.s. adventurism which led to the disaster. meanwhile, yes, new photos release what started this latest crisis the u.s. attack on the iranian general qassem soleimani. there is no word of a failed u.s. strike about the same time against another military leader in yemen. more sanctions against iran following its missile strikes on the u.s. target. right now, guys, the big story is this amazing, amazing admission by iran that it was wrong. wrong in a big and tragic way. we are waiting in the coming hours to hear from the ukrainian president to see

what this country does in response to this new information. back to you. pete: greg, thank you. it is quite a significant, as you say, walkdown. there is no way they would have admitted this after the pressure we and others put on them to say this didn't happen accidentally. lisa: you look at the strategic errors of iran, right? when the united states left the jcpoa iran tried to pressure the europeans to go against us and to help them out. then you look at these series of mistakes whether it's attacking the saudis and their oil installment. also, trying to seize -- seizing the british tanker as well. shooting down the american drone. if you look at these series of mistakes and you look at this shooting down the ukraine plane, just the unnecessary loss of life involved in that as well. so what they have ultimately done is really backed themselves in a corner where they don't have any friends right now. the united states is in a position of leverage after their increased hostility whether it's in the strait

of hormuz or various actions we have seen iran take. enough to the united states, especially with iran's economy, president trump has just squeezed the maximum pressure campaign. now we are in the positio they backed themselves in this corner. dean: you said all the mistakes they have made along the way. everything they did up to that point was escalation. testing us, prodding us. the airliner huge mistake. and shocking that they would admit it. maybe because the world's focus was on them and they realized they couldn't be baghdad bob and say the americans are not here as a tank. pete: used to getting away with their own internal propaganda. the strikes they sent into the dirt in our bases caused dozens of american deaths when we know that's not the case. they try to save face at home. you are right. i don't know if they saw those escalations as mistakes until president trump drew a red line and then they realized they went too far. the downing of the airliner we saw what the iran foreign minister blamed for that he said it was caused by u.s.

adventurism. that was iranian foreign minister. it seems that democrats and the media, same thing in this country, have the same exact criticism of the president of the downed ukrainian passenger plane. here's representative jackie sphere blaming you know who, for the downing of plane. >> if what is being projected is true, this is yet another example of collateral damage from the actions that have been taken in a provocative way by the president of the united states. lisa: will recall general dies and innocence suffers. pete: that's their headline? lisa: they had to do a little bit of a back pedal. of course a headline like that would get attacked. updated headline from the associated press. as iran and the united

states take step back from the brink, grieves. dean: revisionist history. first headline out probably 90% of the people saw that headline. pete: their headlines go through a process. somebody approved that. dean: which process did they go through? seemed to match up really well with iran's foreign minister. pete: pretty solid process of left wing bias. here is what a spokesman from the ap had to say once called for the carpet for it. headlinhead was updated to more clearly describe what the story is about. canadians struggling to come to terms with how the kill of a iranian general in a u.s. drone strike may have led to the deaths of dozens of their citizens in a plane crash. right here front page human error is what led to the downing of this flight. lisa: you guys, remember after -- so when republicans were looking at ukraine and saying hey, look, there is

evidence that ukraine meddled in 2016. who knows how intimately involved the government was there is a political article investigation about it. there is a ukraine court that said as much. there is evidence there to support this. you have the media and left saying republicans are pushing a russian propaganda. look at the iranian foreign minister's quote compared to what jackie speier said. what else the difhat the a.p. s? dean: like a pronoun. same meaning. pete: so much people watching this and a reminder how much our media loathes and hates president trump and let's it come out in everything they do. everything is his fault. including national milk day. if my milk gets warm. dean: it's president trump's fault. pete: it's donald trump's fault and i will blame him for it. lisa: pretty much how it goes. pete: welcome to america in 2020. a roadside bomb hits a u.s. military vehicle in southern

afghanistan overnight. officials say the blast happened in the canada harr province in words on deaths taliban is claiming responsibility. heavy rain and winds. this oklahoma home torn apart by a tornado. and, watch, as slick roads cause a truck to skid into the median on an oklahoma highway. thankfully, no one was hurt and strong winds in texas cause an 18 wheeler to tip over. that's strong winds. the storms are now heading southeast. and actors phoenix and sheen arrested at will jane fonda's climate protest. ignoring police commands while marching upstairs. fonda is holding a weekly initiative called fire drill friday to raise awareness on climate change and those are your headlines. lisa: can we talk about what

iraq and now war correspondent embedded. noah petersen is the author of why soldiers miss war. and he joins us now from ukraine. thank you for joining us this morning. when it comes. >> thanks for having me on. pete: absolutely. thank you for your service as well. when it comes to this incident, a civilian ukrainian jet liner shot down in iran, they are now admitting it. they didn't want to, what do you think happened here? >> well, i think the bottom line take away for me is that this whole tragedy has been a real embarrassment for iran. the country has shown that it's proficient at waging proxy wars and so-called gray zone warfare but this incident with the ukraine airliner shows to me that iran's conventional military is not well trained russian made tour missile suggest was behind the ukrainian airliner shooting down, those iranian operators should have been able to

tell from their radar data that they were looking at a airliner. a boeing 73 737 which the ukrainian plane was typically climbs at a speed of 250 knots and rate of climb 209 feet per minute. that's not a very aggressive behavior by an aircraft. so for the iranian radar operators behind that missile system it. should have been very obvious to them if they were well-trained that they were looking at a civilian jet. also the modern version of this missile which iranians bought from russia in 2005 should also be able to detect the transponder signal from an aircraft and transponders are the radio beacons which aircraft use to identify themselves and that would have been another dead give away for the iranians that they were looking at a civilian plane. pete: you are saying this mistake is grounded in iranian incompetence. a lot of people want to point at our president or the united states and the foreign minister saying this was all caused by u.s.

adventurism. what do you say to them? >> yeah. to me, that's ridiculous. the only responsible party in this tragedy is iran. also, i have to say, as a former combat pilot. somebody who has been out to war zones quite a bit over the course of my life. it's just crazy to me that iran would have left open its airspace to civilian traffic just hours after the country had lobbed ballistic missiles at u.s. troops in iraq. the country was essentially a war zone. and, yet, they kept allowing civilian airliners to fly. so i think just basted on my experience as a pilot and war correspondent. the blame is squarely on iran's soldiers. pete: somebody who knows what they're talking about. noah peterson, thank you for insight this morning. i appreciate it. we needed it? >> thank you. pete: do walls work? just ask these guys. illegals stuck on top of the new 30-foot border wall and

trillion dollars on infrastructure if is he elected president. the south bend mayor says his plan would create 6 million jobs and fix at least half of the country's roads and bridges in the next 10 years. his campaign says that the project would be funded by repealing president trump's tax cuts. and marianne williamson is calling it quits on the 2020 campaign trail. i guess she will not be harnessing love on the battlefield. williamson says she will be unable to get the votes needed to move forward,

adding that she doesn't want to hamper other progressive candidates. that's a shock. that's a shock. dean: love lost. lisa: sad. pete: just got to that conclusion now. his i'm sure the president has a sigh of relief. pete: trump administration new milestone 100 miles of border wall have been built since the president took office. dean: acting homeland security secretary chad wolf paying a visit to the new sections and responding to the critics of the progress. >> every inch of the 100 miles that we have constructed is new border wall system. it's not so-called replacement wall as some of our critics has claimed. it is new wall. the wall system you see behind me is an undeniable impediment to smugglers, traffickers and other criminals who have ebletion ploited our lack of effective border infrastructure. lisa: joining us now to discuss this is president of

the national border patrol unit brandon judge. hi, brandon. >> hi, how are you doing? >> doing well. so, brandon, what do you say? there is this charge from the president's critics. what they say is this really isn't new wall. it's just replacing old wall. what do you say to that charge? >> they are absolutely incorrect. as acting secretary wolf said, this is a new wall system. when you look at all the research and development that has gone into this wall under president trump, we have developed a system that allows us to control the border and stops people from crossing the border unlike the old landing matt fences that didn't go through any sort of research and development. so, all of this new wall that we are building is a huge deterrent and, frankly, it stops illegal drugs and criminal aliens from coming into the country. the critics are absolutely wrong. pete: brandon, yeah, if you have a wall that didn't work replaced by a wall that does

that's new wall. you had a big break this week as well on and a ruling from the fifth circuit. here is what the president tweeted about it. he said breaking news, the fifth circuit of appeals just reverse add lower court decision and gave us the go ahead to build one of the largest sections of the desperately needed southern border wall, $4 billion. the entire wall is under construction or getting ready to start. they approved 3.6 billion military funds to be used for the border wall. how big is this and where will that go? >> it's a great win. but, what's interesting is, we knew this was going to happen. we know that the lower courts are full of judicial activism. we know the lower courts are constantly trying to stymie president trump and all of his directives. we knew the fifth circuit was going to step in and he was going to get this win. it was a matter of time before everything happened that we needed to happen. again, if you look at preand post wall construction, you know, having patrolled the border for 22 years and having worked in.

so busiest areas prewall and then after those walls have been constructed and see the levels of illegal immigration and the levels of illegal drugs that are flowing into the country to see how they have dropped, again, i would challenge all those critics to go down to the border and actually look at and see all of the progress that has been made because of the walls that have been built. president trump refuses to take no for an answer. he continues to push forward with his agenda. dean: brandon real quick and very simple question. do walls work? >> 22 years of experience will tell you yes. walls absolutely work. pete: we have some new video released by customs and border patrol near san diego of three illegal immigrants attempting to climb the wall. a man and two women got all the way to the top and got stuck. so ultimately it was border patrol agents who had to rescue them as well. >> right there shows you that walls absolutely work.

and our agents do such a great job of humanitarian mission as well as law enforcement mission. they are so compassionate in the way that they treat these people that are in distress and we put -- we put ourselves in harm's way all the time to try to rescue these individuals. again, great job by the border patrol. pete: absolutely, they put their lives on the line every single day, those three people would have ran across the border. dean: walked leisurely strolled. pete: they are stuck. thank you, brandon we appreciate it. first it was brexit a big day. now it's megxit. dean: bigger. pete: meghan and harry want out of the royal family's strict rules but the queen is stepping. in don't mess with her. update next. any comments doug?

pete: the correct answer is spinach. i would have gotten that wrong. i'm going to be honest. dean: if she had gotten the answer right her family would have played for $10,000. but she was very confident. it was chicken. lisa: i'm laughing at the dance. that was amazing. pete: it's been a long time since popeye the saylor man. nobody is watching that now. what is popeye's favorite food i would have said chicken too. dean: first of all i'm older than the both of you probably combined and popeye was in the navy so that's why i didn't pay attention. pete: that might be it. dean: definitely spinach. but her family would have won 10 grand and speaking of money so a new study finds that more millennials are asking for donations to pay for their weddings and honeymoons. pete: really. dean: average cost of a wedding is $34,000, which,

have deemed it's too expensive. understandable weddings are too expensive. i'm going to ask you instead of giving mya gift to donate pay for the wedding you are attending. dean: go fund me crowd. fund my wedding. fund my vacation. lisa: group activity. pete: point of a wedding it's not a group activity.

50-year low. we continued that this past month. i mean, you know, we are creating more jobs each month than we need to stay at that level. this is a trend that can continue into 2020. what does that mean for people's wallets? important to talk about the real effects of this. we have 9.5 fewe 9.5 few million fewer people. this is hitting people in really important helpful ways. we ought not let these headlines pass us by without recognizing. this because it's very important. lisa: what's behind it? >> well, you just have an economy that's driven by favorable tax environment. good regulatory environment. people investing animal spirits that causes people to take risks. that's what's happening here. what's great for the average workers' progressive in 2020 you will see more of that because you have had some important policies coming online. usmca is going to be passed. you will see a phase one trade deal with china.

the regime. those are both the kinds of things that can bring iran back to negotiating table. that's the goal here, to get them to change behavior. there is nothing they can do about these economic sanctions. they don't have an answer for them. they like being in a long, drawn-out war. they don't like being in an economic war. the president has played that card extremely well. pete: play that card alongside some really bad dead terrorists. >> there is a mix of things do you here. everybody is talking about the military options and kind of saying, look, he is constrained to only -- lisa: ratcheting that up even more. >> economics and he knows how to do that and he has put the news a position to be able to play that card. let's play it. lisa: i thought it was interesting. secretary pompeo said iran cannot access 90% of financial reserves. just how hard they have been hit by these economic sanctions. >> because we have hit shipping and oil and manufacturing and metals. these are the kind of things

that drain resources. they need money to fund these militias. they need money to do the things we are trying to gte them to stop doing. we have a really strong position to play when it comes to economics. and there is a lot of pundits out there that are down playing that if you look at what was happening in iran and their economy jewels prior to all of these events, there were people in the streets saying we have had it. we have had it with this bad economy and we don't support this regime anymore. pete: perfecting military side can't send all your money to hezbollah. >> population says why are you sending all your money to hezbollah and not helping us feed our children. lisa: thanks, brian. dean: very interesting. thanks, brian. new tech designed to help veterans live better lives. kurt the cyberguy shows us what's coming out of the nation's consumer electronics show. that's next. lisa: big phone ♪ ♪ - do you have a box of video tapes, film reels, or photos,

there saying if it was such a big rush, then why in the world are we sitting on it? well, on thursday of this week, here's what nancy pelosi had to say about had when she might send those articles. >> so are you willing to hold them indefinitely? >> i'm not holding them indefinitely. i will send them over when i'm ready. that will probably be soon. you know, you said if you don't send them over i'm going to pass the mexico, u.s., canada trade agreement. okay. but, no. we want to see what they are willing to do. and the manner in which they will do it. but we will not let them say oh this is just like clinton's -- it's not. documentation, witnesses, facts. truth. that's what they are afraid of. lisa: facts. truth, pete. dean: one word at a time. pete: could she look more uncomfortable. we are going to send those

articles over -- when, -- when we are ready, which will be sometime pretty soon. lisa: wasn't this like a constitutional crisis? it was an urgent thing and national security issue as well. i just want to say for the record, i don't want to tooted my own horn. i had said everyone was out there saying oh, nancy pelosi, she is so smart. she is such a good speaker. and i remember because i went back to 2010 when she lost democrats' 63 seats by walking them off the cliff on obamacare. she is not that great of a speaker. what did she get as a result of withholding those articles of impeachment? nothing. she got nothing from the senate. the republicans in the senate held the line and said no. we're not going to capitulate to you. you had the chance to conduct the kind of trial you wanted. to say you didn't call and subpoena people like john bolton. had you your chance. you blew it. you didn't win the american people over. i had said that all along and i think i was right, dean. dean: you get to toot your

own horn. lisa: toot. pete: she didn't have leverage to gyp with. problem with whole strategy which wasn't smart. sent a letter yesterday to house democrats. on thursday she said i don't know, i think it's going to happen soon. then yesterday she sent this letter to democrats saying every senator now faces a choice to be loyal to the president or the constitution. she sells she will move the articles -- she will move for a vote. told jerry nadler to do so. hold a caucus meeting on tuesday of next week, likely vote to send the articles on tuesday or wednesday over to the senate. dean: we know because someone actually timed it. it takes 1 minute and 37 seconds to walk it across there the president had something to say about that on our -- with our own laura ingraham last night. >> i think it's ridiculous. she should have sent them a long time ago. it belittles the process. nancy pelosi will go down as probably the least successful speaker of the house in the history of our nation. she has done nothing.

pete: yeah. to your point. she held out. you kind of sit there and think if you push that much urgency in the process for so long. and this was such an urgent necessity. why wait? we learned that she may have gotten the idea from someone she heard talking about it on cnn. fine, whatever. and ultimately said maybe my conditions will get better. like maybe we will find more or maybe mitch mcconnell who has never bend bent on anything in his life is going to bend on leverage i don't have. debate about rules which ultimately point back we had rules under nixon and clinton. why don't we use the same ones and do it that way here and nancy, you holding on to it isn't helping your cause. lisa: also, again, nancy pelosi always gets so much credit for being amazing speaker when it's really mitch mcconnell who is the one who is shrewd who continues to notch up wins and put points on the board. i was going to read a quote but i think we moved it. all right. here is the quote from the

"new york post." the op-ed title is called why nancy pelosi probably wishes impeachment would just go away. it's by david harsanyi. it says my working theory is this: pelosi realized that impeachment was a mistake. she didn't want the president to be able to tell voters that he had been exonerated by the senate. the only way to mitigate the damage was to undertake a hand fisted effort to attack the senate trial and dampen or circumvent that inevitable moment. in the process, however, pelosi destroyed the democrats' justification for rushing impeachment in the first place. also, david has great words. i apologize for botching your name. what did you think of the op-ed. dean: he is dead on. i love the word ham-fisted. you can't mess it up. secured iskewered in the media.

take a break. it's urgent. pete: had the chance to do it just then which is how it had been done in the past. she didn't appoint the house managers as she was supposed to. finally get that next week. what people are pointing out it's like the military phrase hurry up and wait. go to go got to go and sit there and wait for 10 hours. dean: we say that in the film industry, too. lisa: congressman louie gohmert had something to say about this. take a listen. >> the house did not do its job on impeachment. there was no high crime. there was no misdemeanor. there was no treason, bribery. they dropped all of those things. when the democrats are accusing the president or republicans of doing something, it's exactly what they were doing. it's projecting. the abuse of power. the obstruction of congress, all of the garbage about clear and present danger, we got to act now. we got to violate our own rules and not allow the

minority party to have witnesses. we have got to move forward and then set on it for a month or so? that just shows the hypocrisy. pete: we may get a resolution this week. we shall see. meantime there is more news. dean: yes, there are. new photos showing the aftermath of the u.s. airstrike that killed islamic as we learned u.s. special ops tried killing another iranian commander that same night. pete: in yemen. this as will iranian minister admits human crash in the downing of the passenger plane. lisa: greg palkot joins us now from kiev's airport with the latest. greg? >> yes. we're at kiev airport to the memorial of the crash of the ukrainian international airlines plane. i must admit there is a new move here today as we get the new word from iran. we have been hearing sadness and anger and amazing climb down overnight by the iranian regime which had been claiming for days this

tragedy was not its fault now after a whole lot of international pressure they are responsible for the downing of the plane, 176 people on board. they are describing the launch of their missile as a disastrous mistake. in a tweet, iranian foreign minister zarif still trying to do a little bit of blame shifting though. is he writing that it was a, quote: human error at a time of crisis, caused by u.s. adventurism, which led to the disaster. meanwhile, there are new photos released. what started this latest crisis at the u.s. attack on the iranian general qassem soleimani. there is new word of a failed u.s. strike about the same time against another iranian military leader in yemen. and the announcement in d.c. yesterday more sanctions against iran following its missile strikes on u.s. targets. and, guys, new word about a

u.s. connection to this tragedy. a 23-year-old doctoral student at a san diego university, her sister and her mother were also on board the plane that crashed and which they died they were iranian canadians, the san diego university will be holding a memorial service in honor of the young lady. more tragedy out of the terrible story. back to you guys. pete: greg, thank you very much for the latest on that. the fact that there was another strike planned at the same time in yemen of another quds force target makes you believe this was a concerted approach by the trump administration to say no more from the quds force which is the exa expedition area arm of iran exporting terrorism around the globe. they said it was imminent and i believe it was. four different clearly they had their eyes on the larger

picture does that matter? this guy had killed 600 americans. we know he was up to no good with proxies and militias and funding them and/or committees straght these various attacks. you know, disruption across the middle east. so, i mean, does it matter? dean: if we had gotten both of them. that would have sent a strong, strong signal. no question. well, president trump, he says that the problems with iran were made worse when the u.s. signed the iran deal. he was on the ingraham angle and this is what he had to say. >> the iran nuclear deal signed by president obama gave him 150 billion. and that's when the real terror started. they took that money and used it all over the place. you look at yemen and all the things that were happening. including syria. they were using gave 1.8 billion in cash. and instead of iran saying thank you very much. that's really nice. let's go and get along. let's do well. let's do deals together. let's build buildings in iran.

they said death to america and they said it when they were signing. when kerry was out there making the deal and they have people screaming death to america, death to america. i say who signs a deal while they are screaming death to america? lisa: that's a good point. dean: that's a very good point. pete: you could never trust that iran would be an honest partner in any deal. they have their own agenda. they have always been clear about what it is. the other part about obama administration is the ones to blame they retreated from iraq creating a vacuum isis to emerge. president trump had to crush them. at the same time vac yiewm in iraq influence soleimani felt i could show up on that. so i the weak news of the obama administration crated all the conditions for what president trump has had to clean up since. lisa: sanctions that brought them to the negotiating table for the jcpoa and negotiation also bring them for a better deal. hopefully. dean: brian brenberg said it's our strongest tool.

house speaker nancy pelosi now says she will finally send the articles of impeachment to the senate. this comes amid pressure both sides of the aisle over her delay for leverage over the senate trial. and the next guest says he has had enough. he is calling out the speaker and democrats for, quote, utterly failing the american people. here now to explain republican congressman chip roy. chip, -- congressman, thanks for being here this morning, really appreciate it. when you say the speaker has not only failed she will say well, i'm moving the articles over. how would she explain away this delay? >> well, good morning, pete. i'm just glad that speaker pelosi has found her way to learn how to get across capitol over to the senate and deliver the articles next week. when a lot of my colleagues are talking about how the speaker has been carrying out a blunder here and not actually doing what she should do, i would just remind people over the last year what has she done for the american people, other than turning over the house of representatives to the radical left and aoc and those who are trying to reshape this country and a

socialist agenda. she denied there was a crisis at our border for the better part of six months. endangering american citizens and endangering the very immigrants that she said she wanted to help in the false name of compassion. blown time pursuing impeachment instead of working together with people across both sides of the aisle who actually want to do something about, you know, authorizations of force. who want to do something about healthcare costs. who want to do something about securing the border. what has she actually accomplished in the last year? i hear democrats say well, she has passed 400 bills and sent them over to the senate. what good are passing 400 bills that aren't going to do anything to actually help the american people instead of working with us to solve the problem. >> lost control and ultimately posturing. you pointed out and did it in a very literal way how long it would take to walk from the house to the senate with those articles. twitter posted a video like this it will take me one minute and 37 section. 37 seconds. what do you think nancy

pelosi was hoping to accomplish by not walking that distance that you showed everyone how to do? >> well, i think speaker pelosi knows full well she made a mistake. i think she made a strategic error and trying to appease her radical left base. the very kind that are out there running hard core liberal candidates like the ones running against me in austin texas, wendy davis. she is trying to appease that liberal basis rather than do what the american people want to do. trying to save face and hoping for last-minute reason to justify why she held the articles and she doesn't have one. what we will see when it gets over to the senate is that the case that they prevented is very weak. now, pete, i spent months listening to depositions. i stopped, i didn't really talk publicly. y go out on press because i took very seriously my responsibility on the oversight committee to listen to the facts, to actually do my job. and i listened. and i went through it. and there is nothing there that i believe rises to a high crime or misdemeanor as has been talked about ad nauseam. she wasted the time of the american people rather than focusing on what the american people care about around the kitchen table.

healthcare costs, border security. our men and women in uniform. our reckless spending. pete: congressman chip roy, thank you. we will see if nancy pelosi makes the walk you made next week. she said she will but i'm not holding my breath. >> thanks, pete. pete: staggering number of new york city students facing homelessness, still the city is spends billions of dollars to try to fix the problem. caldwell seen the policies firsthand having grown up out of chicago. he joins us next. ♪ ♪ at philadelphia, we know what makes the perfect schmear of cream cheese. you need only the freshest milk and cream. that one! and the world's best, and possibly only, schmelier. philadelphia. schmear perfection.

the nation is watching as liberal states like new york city, california, illinois, high home state policies are issuing a crushing blow to many of the residents they claim a they want to help the most. pete: if you hear liberals talk about domestic policies especially in big cities and things you will hear all the time about our homelessness and education. yet, you look at this statistic only 57% of homeless in new york city students graduate from high school so have you got low graduation rates along with homelessness as we are spending $3.2 billion in 2019 alone to combat homelessness and not to mention what's being spent on public schools. why doesn't spending that much more money actually impact things? >> because liberals, they will, with good intentions or not, they will throw a bunch of money at a problem, whether it works out or not they will continue to throw money at it. that's part of the problematic view and

strategy that liberals often have. as i have mentioned chicago. in 2016 if you were african-american male between the ages of 20 and 24. 47% of you unemployed out of school. this is something that we continue to see in these cities and i think it's really up to the voters who often continue to put these elected officials in office to stand up and begin to shout from the roof top. when it comes to the homeless crisis, fox news deserves a lot of credit. because we have been highlighting these stories over and over again. and you see the residents who often have to deal with this, for example, one of the places i live is downtown l.a. for those who seat homeless folks every day no one seems to hear their voice especially the liberal politician seems not to pay attention. if you look at san francisco and nancy pelosi city one out of 11,000 citizens is a billionaire. annual household income necessary to buy a median priced home is $320,000.

[cheers and applause] don't even think about it. lisa: i think he wants to build a wall. pete: that was then candidate trump and president-elect trump making biggest and signature campaign promise to build the wall on our southern border to deal wit mexico illegal immigration. since coming to office he has done everything he could to deal with just that the resistance deep and thick. dean: resistance. lisa: resistance in the courts as well. he had a recent victory with one of the federal appeals court actually giving the green light for him to -- fifth circuit, for $3.6 billion worth of funding. what's interesting is you had reagan and trump appointees in the majority and obama appointees in the

dissent demonstrating how impactful under the trump administration to the courts and judges the difference that has made. pete: they are going to matter. dean: going to make a difference for a long time. pete: big time. the acting homeland security secretary chad wolf was in yuma, arizona recently marking the 100th mile of wall. this is the president yesterday promised to build 450 miles. got a big boost with that ruling. he got 3.6 billion he can use from the defense budget to use for the border wall. here's what the acting secretary said about what we built so far. >> every inch of the 100 miles that we have constructed is new border wall system. it's not so-called replacement wall as some of our critics have claimed. it is new wall. the wall system you see behind me is an undeniable impediment to smugglers, traffickers and other criminals who have exploited our lack of effective border infrastructure. pete: that's the acting secretary getting in front of the semantics debate the

left and the president's haters are going to want to have. there was already some form of wall there. when you -- if you have been to the border, which many of us have, you see the patchwork of what existed before. some of which was just for vehicle traffic or personnel traffic or was just chain linked fence. it was a hodgepodge to replace it with something that's been researched to be the most effective and then something you can actually surveil with electronic means as well. makes all the difference. lisa: dean, to your point. chad wolf is looking very maverick, very top gun. dean: sunny in california. or in texas. and i think it's somewhere california, texas. i'm not sure where he was at that point in time it's sunny out west. not very sunny in new york. pete: identified him as income a sunny spot. dean: arizona. there it is. walls work. you know, walls work. earlier we had brandon judge on border patrol.

>> when you look at research and development gone into this wall under president trump. we have developed a system that has allowed to us control the border and stopped people from crossing the border, unlike the old landing matt fences that didn't go through any sort of research and development. so, all of this new wall that we are building is a huge deterrent and, frankly, it stops illegal drugs and criminal aliens from coming into the country. i would challenge all those critics to go down to the border and actually look at and see all of the progress that has been made because of the walls that have been built. pete: can you see nancy pelosi down at the border? dean: yeah. pete: probably not. lisa: remain in mexico policy didn't get enough discussion. .1% of asylum seekers granted stating they are coming for economic reasons. dean: small number. and where are the caravans? i don't hear about caravans anymore. pete: the message has been sent quite clearly. even if that 450 doesn't get built by election day, what a campaign promise to make

to say look what all i have faced as far as resistance. works its way through the courts. got more help in the house and the senate. now let's finish building the border wall. that could be a another campaign promise for 2024. i mean to be done by 2024. lisa: i was going to say. pete: i'm not talking about a third term people's heads exploding. dean: maybe. pete: turning now to your headlines. california governor gavin newsom wants to extend benefits for illegal immigrants. consider the contrast with the story we just did. last year california became the first state to offer health benefits to low income adults 25 and younger living in the country illegally. newsom how wants to extend those documents to undocumented immigrants 65 and older. it would cost taxpayers an estimated $350 million each year. dean: yeah. pete: california, you have a special one. dean: i'm one of those

taxpayers. pete: thank you, dean. increase in competition is forcing medical marijuana dispensary to open a drive-thru. that oklahoma store customers can drive up and keep and shop while keeping their privacy for faster service. customers can even order online in advance and change comes as more -- dozen other dispensaries open up in the tulsa area. marijuana drive-thrus. america 2020. all right. well, a new mexico sheriff's department is about to gain a super hero. ♪ the incredible hulk lou ferrigno about to join the ranks of the sheriff's office. not the first time in uniform. previously served in departments in california and arizona. and those are your headlines. dean: great guy.

lisa: this guy is also a police officer with the saint anthony police department. dean: also a former super hero. i'm just saying it's kind of what we do. pete: it's a very small club. dean: lou is a great friend of mine and wonderful guy. great thing is he doing. he really cares about our law enforcement and military and first responders. it's great he gets out there and does that hats off to him. he is huge and green. pete: send him in to do the difficult detention. lisa: sitting next to two guys who have served this country. so aoc is ruffling feathers in the democratic party for failing to pay her dues. >> i don't think that my fundraising should go to preventing more people like me from being here in congress. lisa: her gop challenger says this is just another example of the freshman democrat only caring about herself. she joins us live next. pete: don't you know it's all about me?

new south whales. monitoring the screens behind me 51 out of control. after a grueling night. representative from the fire department here in the state of new south wales tells me they are pleased with the way the day ended. yes, they had some injuries but no loss of life. the conditions are easing up a bit and should be for the next five days or. so but the forest is not being eased up by these firefighters. i can give you some numbers and let you know exactly how many fire trucks are on the ground. 800 here in the state of new south wales. 3400 wildfire personnel and over 100 aircraft. and i learned tonight that a large portion of the american support, which has been flown in, is actually piloting those critical large air tank errors. as we have gotten some rain falling in some areas, firefighters are cautioning that unless we get enough to actually saturate the flames, it can hinder their efforts to get these fires contained.

that. >> rain moisture content increased so the fire doesn't take to it doesn't progress in as well. back burning put in when we get some reprieve don't always go or can't go ahead as planned. anna: meanwhile the opera house and iconic harbor lit up in support of all the volunteer firefighters, 95% of the force is made up of volunteers and also those impacted by the fires. these fires have been raging for five and a half months and the crisis is expected to go on for months to come. we are just getting a report now that a firefighter has been killed in the state of victoria. bringing the death toll now to 27. back to you. lisa: wow, praying for everyone in australia. so freshman congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez

standing by her decision to not pay 250,000 in party dues, despite riling up fellow democrats. >> i'm playing my part and i'm contributing to our party. but at the beginning of this year very clear message that they would blacklist any progressive organization that helps candidates like me. and i don't think that my fundraising should go to preventing more people like me from being here in congress. lisa: our next guest is running for ocasio-cortez seat and says this is just another selfish move by the democrat. g.o.p. congressional candidate scherie murray joins me now. you say this is just an example that she is in it for herself. why do you say that? >> democrats are frustrated with her, lisa. this is just another example of aoc trying to deliver socialism to america. and she is trying to recruit radicals to do so. i think it's just a shame

that she doesn't want to support her own party and be a team player. lisa: i want so get to though she is being criticized by democrats obviously as a result of this. i want to get to that as well. representative knee a louie of new york, also of new york says this. if you are a democrat and you are here, you should be part of the effort. and here is another democratic aid who chooses to not be known they say deadbeat cortez should pay her bills. representative gregory meeks of new york says dccc dues are about supporting others because you want to be a part of the team. does this impact new york's congressional district? does this impact voters. >> absolutely. that's why i'm taking her on, lisa. i encourage all of your viewers to go to scherie murray.com. we are in this fight combat what we cease as a far left socialist narrative detrimental to america. democrats are up in arms with her.

lisa: in 2018 though you did tweet out you said alexandria ocasio-cortez, this is the new leadership that we need. she was a socialist then. she is a socialist now. >> actually not. lisa: why should voters trust you? >> actually i didn't say this is what we need. i was excited. lisa: kind of leadership you were supporting her. >> she ousted an incumbent that wasn't in the district. lisa: why should people trust you though. >> i plan on being in the district and i have a recovered accomplishments unlike my opponent who from the time since she has been on elected has been on bid for the limelight and left the constituents of the 14th district abandoned. queens and the bronx deserve more and that's why i'm the best candidate. the best messenger to deliver a message of unity. we don't need someone in washington that's going to continue to divide the fight. we need someone that is going to europe night the fight. we need a leader in washington that can work across the aisle and that's what i plan to do is f. duly elected to queens and the bronx to represent ny 14. lisa: all right. we will leave it right there. thank you for joining us. we appreciate it.

"fox & friends weekend." big week of news. bring more to you this morning. close to the showdown with iran has been wall-to-wall this week. first, it's the reaction to the strike itself and the death of the terrorist soleimani put iran in a tough spot. attempted to respond. people asking whether that was intentional or not. their attempt to try to overrun our embassy. throw iranian proxies through an iraq check point. swarm our embassy, president trump said there will be no benghazi on my watch. democrats idemocrats and the mee been asking was it truly imminent? did he really need to do it? was it necessary? was it too much of an

escalation? our president sat down last night with laura ingraham and answered all of those questions to include what was the threat specifically. watch. >> don't the american people have a right to know what specifically was targeted without revealing methods and sources? >> well, i don't think so. but we will tell you that probably it was going to be the embassy in baghdad. >> they had large scale attacks planned for other embassies and if those were planned why can't we reveal that to the american people? wouldn't that help your case? >> can i reveal i believe it would have been four embassies. >> the new information there is that it wasn't just the embassy in iraq but it was four embassies potentially around the world. we don't know where specifically. dean: we don't know specifically it was all u.s. embassies. it could be one of our allies or something like that as well. four embassies. that is new information. lisa: this whole distraction from democrats about if it was imminent or not. why does that matter?

this guy has american blood on his hands. 600 americans. he has claimed their lives. he has been responsible for their death so who cares? you have a window of opportunity to take this terrorist out. the trump administration did and they should be applauded for it and despite all the criticism that the trump administration has got, they have actually been very clear-eyed in their handling of iran. you look at the economic sanctions have actually been the tool that they have deployed the most. the time is running out for this regime. we are looking at the internal pressure that they have been facing because of these economic sanctions. secretary pompeo had said yesterday that they can't access 90% of their financial reserves because they have been hit so hard by these sanctions. pete: iran this morning finally admitting that they -- h they did shoot down that ukraine an airliner over their airspace. they say it was a human error. iran never would have admitted that without the pressure from the outside and to your point, lisa.

this is clearly a moment where iran blinked they could have attempted to try to strike back with the are revenge, the hard revenge they claimed was coming. instead they shot missiles and quickly said that's it. we are done for now. everyone knows they are not done. their regime is premised on the exportation of islamic terrorism but for now the president showed if you cross that line of american blood, we will not tolerate it, which is a signal the mullahs in iran have certainly gotten. we will ask morgan ortagus. spokeswoman at the u.s. state department 8:30 more about this. you are right. it's not going to go away this talk about whether it was imminent or not. what did they know and what did they know it? secretary pompeo obviously being huge in. this to your point it was imminent in 2004 when our troops first started getting killed by penetrators we know were approved at the top of the iranian government. from 2004 through the entire war, blood on this guy's hands and even before that it's a great day when he is taken out.

it's a sad day of our country when democrats in the media can't admit that we saw that all week long. we will see it even more. dean: i don't think it can be overstated enough how important this guy was for the quds force and all the stuff going on in the middle east. this was the guy. it seems as though he was so insulated and they thought that nothing would touch him. nothing would happen to him. they don't really have a replacement. and i think that's going to show itself in the next incoming weeks and months that this guy was kind of everything in that area. lisa: look at iran as not only facing that internal pressure because of the economic sanctions. you look at the external pressure as well. and the shooting down of this ukrainian plane and the loss of these innocent lives sure is not going to get them any friends with these european allies because or europeans because what they have been trying to do since the united states left the jcpoa europeans turn their backs on the united states. but what they have done in the process, they have attacked the saudis, they seized a british oil tanker,

which then received condemnation from germany, from france, obviously from the brits as well. they shot down an american american contractor take down this plane. you know iran you have dug your own grave. now that the united states has a whole lot of leverage to use against them to bring them to the negotiating table. pete: brings us to the next topic. part of the reason we have so much leverage we have energy-independent today. dean: so important. pete: in the past something like this would have spiked the oil crisis and sent the economy in a tail spin. what do we do about our energy resources. instead this week on wall street, dean, what did we see? dean: stocks slipped a little bit after they crossed 29,000 for the first time ever. the highest ever, just after this whole incident took place. clearly the energy independence didn't spike oil prices thingtsz like that. numbers came in for the december jobs report. added 145,000 jobs.

unemployment remained at 3.5%. less than 50% of the jobs held by women -- more than 50% of the jobs held by women. first time since 2010. also, the economy is kicking up. not because men are loads jobs as happened earlier in 2010. this time because women are taking more jobs. so many more people employed. lisa: yea. had you mentioned i think the energy part is so important as well and when you hear a lot of people talking about the green new deal or talking about getting rid of fossil fuels. guess what? we will lose energy independence if we do that a lot of it is responsible because of fracking, because of fossil fuels. just keep that in the back of your mind. pete: you are so right. leverage can be taken away and the democrats are trying as hard as they can to do so. we had brian brenberg on the program a kings college professor. he talked about the impact of this booming economy on you. >> i think we have to just shout the 3.5% from the roof top. it's become so normal in

this country to expect 3.5% unemployment. that is historical. 50-year low. we continued that this past month. i mean, you know, we are creating more jobs each month than we need to stay at that level. so this is a trend that can continue into 2020. important to talk about the real effects of this. we have 9.5 million fewer people on food stamps than three years ago. 40 million fewer people in households on government assistance. i mean, this is hitting people in really important helpful ways. we ought not let these headlines pass us by without recognizing this. because it's very important. dean: i will tell you what, i was in toledo for the president's rally a couple days ago. the voters there were pretty excited about how the economy is doing. i asked all sorts of people. i did the diner thing. i did the pre. i did the post rally. people were very excited how this economy is shaping up under this president and this is what they had to say. >> i love my country. i love my president. >> this is amazes. >> how do you think the

economy is running under the current president. >> well, let's see, last year i made a ton of money. the year before i made a ton of money. >> i love the economy. >> we used to be on welfare for two years, almost three. we have been off of welfare. >> i'm actually in the sales industry. we are just back to back. two of our best years that we have had at the dealership. >> whole different situation at iran taking out soleimani and strike from iran back. how do you feel about that whole situation? >> that was fabulous what a thing to do. it should have been done years ago. >> what do you think about the thing going won iran. >> i think trump is the guy to get the job done. >> we think trump is working from a thing of strength. that's what he did. >> i think the democrats, i mean, the democrats are doing what the whole impeachment situation. >> that's such a farce. that's so crazy. they are grasping at straws. >> democrats are only trying to get impeached because think are just tired of him and they know that he is right. >> you think 2020 comes ghost to trump in a landslide. >> landslide, i really do.

>> you don't see support like this for any of the other people. >> i was a never trumper. done. i'm very happy. looking forward to voting for him again. >> isn't the rally a and diner fun one. minorities hate trump no. democrat support for trump and did you go to these rallies and you find it's the complete opposite. dean: not only the complete opposite but they are avid, huge supporters. it was unbelievable. most unbelievable moment for me. loved talking to the people and incredible. like a rock star atmosphere. thousands of people lined up outside still trying to get in. and there was a woman inside and she sangts national anthem and everybody stopped completely respectful. and when she finished singing, a roar went up like the game was about to start. it was amazing. i was like this is incredible. the patriotism and the support behind the president was tangible to put it mildly. lisa: you should sing it next time. >> we want to respect the anthem. we want people to enjoy it.

if i sing it will be very, very bad. pete: meanwhile in iowa sanders buttigieg, biden tied: great job, dean, appreciate it. turn to headlines. a fox news alert. roadside bomb hits a u.s. military vehicle in southern afghanistan overnight. officials say the blast happened in kandahar province. we don't know if anyone was killed. the taliban claiming responsibility for that attack. heartland getting battered by brutal storms bringing heavy rain and winds. this oklahoma home torn apart by a tornado. watch as slick roads cause a truck to skid into the median on an oklahoma highway. no one was hurt thankfully. and strong winds in texas caused an 18-wheeler to tip over. the storms are now heading southeast. that's wind 6-year-old boy gets a warm welcome from his

federal prosecutor brett tollman. so, brett. >> good morning. lisa: basically said constitutional crisis, needs to get done. this is a national security concern. what is this long delay signal to you? >> you know, it was a play that went bad because they wanted to pull some sort of leverage out of the senate. i hear from my friends still working in the senate what happened was democratic senators started to get riled up. started to say look, we were told it was really important. i get that you are trying to get mitch mcconnell to do something. we had no leverage to do it. even her own party was starting to say what are we doing? pete: remember, she famously said we have got to pass obamacare so we can find out what's in it. is that sort of part of this? we need to get the impeachment done to find out if there is -- what was she really hoping to accomplish here? >> well, that's the tragedy of it. because for those of us that worked in the senate, for years, you knew that impeachment was a powerful tool. and it was never wielded

politically. there were some that grumbled it might have been with clinton. you saw they followed procedures. they sent it over to the senate for trial. they didn't convict. and the country got to sort of move on. here, we are trapped. in a tail spin and it doesn't look like there is a soft landing for the democrats. dean: correct me if i am wrong. the whole trial part with witnesses and things, that's supposed to happen in the house. and then the senate just makes a decision. is that wrong or am i seeing it wrong? or is that how it is supposed to go. >> dean, you are right. think about clinton impeachment. it lasted for 1500 days in the house. so that investigation lasted that long. witnesses were called. documents produced. we had 75 days in the house and then they don't send it? lisa: here is another topic we want to get you on as well. christopher wray is now apologizing to the foreign

intelligence survey court. the fisa court saying this: the fbi has the utmost respect for this court and deeply regrets the errors and omissions. the fbi is committed to working with the court and doj to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the fisa process. so clearly you have 17 omissions, errors, et cetera. what i really want to ask you what is the inspector general report on fisa, what does that say to you about the john durham investigation, right? so that investigation is criminal. so reading that report, what are you looking for from john durham? >> well, when you read the report from horowitz, you know that he was limited. he doesn't have subpoena power. he can't grab documents that might seem difficult to get. he can't get witnesses that have left the department or left the fbi. durham can. you have in that -- you know, he get that chris is apologizing and i worked with chris. i have respect for him. but it's too little, too

late. pete: comey that was responsible. apologizing on behalf of the fbi. >> apologies don't mean anything if people don't lose jobs or get prosecuted if they did things on purpose to violate citizens,', you know, privacy rights. lisa: only get some mistakes before it's intentional. >> 17, these weren't just mistakes like comey said. this was representing to a court and that's actually its own federal violation. dean: big deal. pete: we will see where it goes. thank you very much. you told us you are a pats fan and nobody feels bad for you.

dean: quick headlines, 2020 hopeful bernie sanders is getting a bump just weeks before the iowa caucuses. a new des moines register poll shows the vermont senator getting 20% of likely caucus goers. elizabeth warren polls just behind at 17% and pete buttigieg at 16%. joe biden is in fourth place at 15%. and one of sanders' signature proposals could cost american workers over a trillion dollars. the wealth tax endorsed by senators sanders and elizabeth warren would try to pay for sweeping social programs like medicare for all. but, economists say the tax would hurt innovation and investment in businesses.

the study also warren and sanders' proposals would cut the g.d.p. by at least a point. pete, lisa? lisa: great job, dean. iowa state university accused of violating students' free speech in a new lawsuit filed by the nonprofit group speech first. pete: the lawsuit claims the university, quote: created a series of rules and regulations designed to restrain, deter, suppress and punish speech concerning political and social issues of the day. here with more is speech first president nicole. thanks for being here this morning. really appreciate it? >> thanks for having me. pete: you say that iowa stated is suppressing speech. explain. >> sure. so we believe thee have three policies on the books that have both the purpose and effect of discouraging students from speaking. those three abandon chalking, writing on sidewalk with chalk. a ban on sending political emails from your school email account and also a

policy called campus climate reporting system. students are required to report on speech from fellow classmates that they feel is bias and hated. that speech often ends up being political or religious in nature. lisa: what does your lawsuit entail and where does it stand now? >> sure. so we are a membership association. we filed this on behalf of our student members at the campus. our student members are anonymous in complaint. listed as student a and b and c. they fear disciplinary repercussions from the school. we filed the lawsuit in the southern district of iowa and filed a motion for preliminary injunction on monday. we just got our judge, judge stephanie rose and we look forward to presenting the case. with the iowa caucuses coming up, we think this is incredibly important. pete: well, yeah. it is iowa, after all. and so i have got to believe though it's conservative or pro-trump speech that ultimately is at issue here. am i right on that? >> you are right. looking at some of the campus climate reports that have been filed over the

past year it is support for president trump it. is support for steve king. reynolds. people supporting pro-life. people discussing gender issues. these are national issues. fear people discussing those because they fear being dragged before the school and star chambers is terrifying. this is a public university. they must uphold the first amendment. period, full stop. lisa: this is what iowa state university has to say. part of their statement that says this. iowa state university does not punish individuals for their constitutionally protected rights to expression nor do we have policies or practices that prohibit expression braced on the content of the expression or the viewpoint of the speaker. nicole, what do you say to that? >> i say that i disagree, obviously. that's why we have to bring them to federal court. we look forward to working this through the federal court system. we believe that students deserve better than to be chilled and terrified of disciplinary repercussions from the school. there is no need for them to fear the administration getting them in trouble.

chalking in particular, that's one way that students have been able to communicate events that are going on campus. there are these candidates tracing through aims on a regular basis. so they learn andrew yang, elizabeth warren, bernie sanders are in a hotel ballroom. they are able to attend these events, ask questions and organize counter events as a result of that. so to not be able to advertise those events is directly impacting students' civic participation which is unacceptable. pete: it's so childish to shut down the idea of chalking as if you are going to make people feel better. and an anonymous reporting system. i never heard anything that would chill more than that. >> right. this is actually the fourth lawsuit we have filed challenging a policy like that. another campus they are called bias response systems. pete: oh boy. >> we served the university of michigan. university of illinois. and university of texas about those programs as well. pete: nicole, the organization is called speech first. thank you very much for your time. we appreciate it. lisa: thank you. pete: a showdown with iran. the country admitting human error caused the ukrainian plane crash that killed 176 people.

pete: welcome back. new photos showing the aftermath of the u.s. airstrike that killed iranian general soleimani. as we learned u.s. special ops tried killing another iranian commander that same night. lisa: this as iran's minister admits human error led to the deadly crash of the ukrainian passenger plane. dean: greg palkot joins us from kiev airport with reaction. greg? >> hi, folks: in the past hour or so we have been hearing from the ukrainian international airlines. and he has said that his airplane on wednesday flying out of tehran did nothing irregular that would bring on what we now know is an iranian missile strike. we have been spending time at this makeshift memorial at the airport. we have been hearing new sadness and new anger. amazing climb down overnight by the iranian regime it. had claimed the tragedy was not at fault for days now after a whole lot of international pressure is now saying it is responsible for the downing of the plane

with 176 on board. it's describing the missile strike as a, quote: disastrous mistake. listen to some of the people we spoke with here today. >> what should be done to iran? they are admitting that they took a missile against a civilian plane. >> i cannot comment just a strategy for the family. we are so sorry. >> it's so scary. it's killed so many people. we don't learn anything from history. >> now, still, the iranian foreign minister zarif tried to do some blame-shifting tweeting today it was a human error at a, quote, time of crisis caused by u.s. adventurism, which led to the disaster. meanwhile, yes, new photos released of what started this latest crisis. the u.s. attack on the iranian general, qassem soleimani. there is new word of a failed u.s. strike at about the same time against another iranian military

leader in yemen. and the announcement in d.c. yesterday more sanctions against iran following its missile strikes on u.s. targets. and, guys, we are hearing also of a u.s. connection to this tragedy. turns out a 23-year-old doctoral student at a san diego university was on board the flight as well. the iranian can madia can madian individual was there with her mother and sister. they all died, there will be a memorial ceremony at the university in san diego in the coming days, back to yo you. pete: thanks for that morgan ortagus from the state department. thanks for joining us, appreciate it? >> hey, pete. thank you. pete: love to get your reaction to what greg just reported. iranians now admitting it was human error that led to the crash of the jetliner.

went on to say it was caused by u.s. adventurism. your reaction to that? >> the secretary, of course, addressed this at the white house yesterday. he said, he followed up what canada and ukraine and others had said that we thought that this was, of course, intentional or downing by tehran itself using a missile strike. i think it's important to remember, pete, that iran has denied this since the passenger's plane was shot down. they have also denied it very ferociously in russian media as well. there has been a lot of disinformation going on. secretary pompeo called zarif propagandist at the highest order. that's appropriate way to describe his tweet. lisa: morgan, on this ukraine plane you have individuals from the countries that are still part of the vcpoa what position does this put iran in. >> yeah, lisa, that's a great point. president trump on wednesday from the white house whenever he gave his remarks following the ballistic

missile attack by iran on iraqi bases. president trump called on the remaining signature 2345 tores of the jcpoa to withdraw from what he considers to be a fundamentally flawed deal. this administration has made our position known over the past year and a half that we think that the jcpoa did not contain iranian adventurism throughout the middle east. they are still the world's larkest state sponsor of terrorism. nor do we think that this was a mechanism that would prevent them from getting a nuclear weapon. we have seen not just in the past week but really a believe over the past six months repeated statements by iran, by foreign minister have a reef that they would no longer abide by the terms of the deal. obviously everything that we're dealing with as it relates to iran is bigger than the jcpoa we hope the countries that remain signatories will withdraw from a fundamentally flawed deal. dean: more news that u.s. is hitting iran with fresh sanctions in response to missile attacks against

armed forces. we had brian brenberg on earlier. he said that's the most effective strategy that we can possibly employ. >> secretary pompeo and secretary mnuchin announced these sanctions from the white house podium yesterday on 8 senior officials. many of them tied to the iogc. to the ayatollah, to now deceased qassem soleimani. and i think it's important to remember that this is a part of a year and a half long maximum economic pressure campaign that we have pursued against the regime. many people are asking us, what is our strategy post the soleimani killing and post the ballistic missile attack on the united states. this is our strategy. we are diplomatically and economically isolating the regime in iran until they behave like a normal nation and now thanks to our colleagues at the department of definition, we have seen military deterrence restored as well. lisa: morgan, can you get into -- what kind of pressure is the iranian regime facing internally? is the clock ticking?

>> so, lisa, that's another good point. for the past several months, we have been closely following at the state department the protest by iranian citizens against their own regime. it's important to note in these protests we have seen at least 1500 people killed, killed by the regime for innocently protesting. probably at least 10,000 have been jailed. this is not how a normal nation behaves. it's not just protests inside iran. before this -- before the last two weeks we were seeing protests in iraq, in lebanon, and other places throughout the middle east where we really saw the middle east waking up to the nefarious influence by the regime in tehran and this grip that they have tried to have on their own country, on the citizens in the middle east. so we stand with the protesters in iran. we know you want to choose your own future. and we don't want to change the regime in iran. we want to change the behavior of the regime in iran. pete: we want to get to one more topic. briefly you mentioned the other countries leaving jcpoa. do you anticipate other

allies joining in these sanctions? >> we actually have had great sanction compliance with our allies. it certainly has been something that has been a discussion with our european allies for a long time. secretary mnuchin talked about china, russia, and others joining in these sanctions in terms of not evading them but participating in them. we want all countries to help us not only to deescalate any tensions with iran but to help us to bring iran to a place where they are ready to stop their terrorist and maligned behavior and where they are ready to discuss with the united states, with europe, with everyone about how they can change their behavior to act like a normal nation. we know, can i go through a laundry list, pete, of actions that the regime took after they signed the jcpoa which showed that they had no intention to behave like a normal nation in the middle east. pete: no, they rarely do. morgan ortagus. thank you for your time. we will leave it there thanks. dean: turning now to your headlines. texas governor greg abbott announcing his state will no

longer accept new refugees. in a letter to secretary of state mike pompeo abbot said the lone star state continues to have to deal with the consequences of an immigration system that congress has failed to fix. abbot is the first governor to stop accepting refugees after president trump signed an executive order allowing states to opt out of resettlement. banning all firearms, the policy doesn't just apply visitors but to senators, delegates and law enforcement officers. capitol police say the policy will not be enforced for lawmakers because it would take them too long to pass through medical detect fors. does that make sense? and a woman going viral for her epic fail on "family feud." >> name popeye's favorite food. [. [buzzer] >> chicken. [laughter] >> the woman confusing

popeye the cartoon saylor with the fast food chain. the correct answer, of course was spinach. she got the answer right her family would have played for $10,000. pete: i don't think that was epic fail at all. dean: those had your headlines. pete you said chicken. pete: if we were on tom's show on this show i would have said chicken. his deep dean would you have gotten popeye and spinach correct though. lisa: i said all but one. that might have been my one. rick: i'm with you, pete, when i watched it, i was thinking chicken when it happened. by the way, i was also really disappointed with myself once i had realized what i done. how did i fall for that so fast? why did my brain go there? pete: happens to us a lot. rick: i would like a chicken sandwich right now. lisa: me, too i'm starving.

here. your reaction when you hear something like that from a prominent democrat presidential candidate? >> well, we, you know, frankly, you know, it's more of the same. and it's very callus and, you know, we believe it's also unamerican. how they can actually espouse a view that would suggest that we are going to put millions of americans out of work is just mind boggling. pete: where does the mindset come from? he is not the only one. joe biden has learned coal miners need to learn how to program he wants to give you new jobs. every democrat is saying. this why do they want to get rid of an entire industry? >> you know, i'm not sure. you know, the trump energy plan is working at the present time. we are putting miners back to work. steelworks are working. downstream manufacturing is an all-time high. you know, it's generating a lot of boost to our economy. and, you know, it escapes us. again, it's very troubling. very callus. and we don't know where it's

coming from. pete: you are the energy of yesterday, right? it's a green new future and sorry you don't count. >> i'm not sure where that view comes from. you know, great percentage of our coal today is used in the manufacturing process and also within the steel-making process. you cannot make steel out of wind or solar and, frankly, you know, these miners deserve a little better from our elected officials and those running for office particularly at the level of presidency. i mean these are the salt and earth of our workforce, you know, the heart blood of our industry. pete: absolutely. the left is answering to climate zealots who say you have got to get rid of this in order to save the planet. otherwise world war iii level carnage is coming. what do you say the president loosened some regulations this week to make it easier for new mines and pipelines to go into effect. your response to that real quick? >> well, i think it's an example of having it both ways.

you've seen democrats have made this discussion of if it was imminent or not. a main talking point so my question to you is does that matter if it was imminent? >> well that's actually a really good question. i've long said that it makes the case a lot stronger that there was an imminent threat, but the reality is we have the escalation in violence that was occurring against us and that escalation had been happening for a very long time and it was transitioning from non- attributable proxy attacks to attributable attacks and that shows the boldness with which soleimani was operating. let's go back in time just a little bit. they boarded u.s. never it vessels. they tested many many nuclear capable ballistic missiles, quadrupled funding to hezbollah, doubled their military funding this is all from the jcpoa by the way because they got richer after that and then they started attacking u.s. bases and killed u.s. citizens and orchestrated an attack on the u.s. embassy so what's funny is democrats will ring their hands and say how do you know they were going to

attack an embassy? well they did attack an embassy. it just happened and we had to disrupt that escalation. pete: yeah, and the response has been quite predictable from media and the democrats and we'll get to that but one of the new pieces of information we learned this morning is that iran's foreign minister is now admitting that they shot down that you crane yankees jetliner that it was human error that led to the deadly crash, the shoot- down, but democrats in the media are continuing to ramp up their hits on the president, even blaming him and the united states for the crash. here is one of your colleague, representative jackie speer, blaming the president for that shootout. listen. >> if what is being projected is true this is yet another example of collateral damage from the actions that have been taken in a provocative way by the president of the united states. pete: so the foreign minister of iran effectively sets the exact same thing, the associated press also in its headlines piling on

here is one headline they had to correct. it started with this and said an iranian general died in the u.s. attacks and innocents suffer. you see what they are doing with that one and they said as iran and the u.s. take a step back from the brink, canada grieves help me out here, dan. how in the world with this new information, we know iran shot it down, is the u.s. to blame for these deaths? >> because that's how the democrats operate. do you know who else is playing those clips over and over again? the state media from iran. they are playing it over and over again for their own propaganda and it's hard to over state how disgusting those comments are, she's on the armed services committee and you have to ask yourself what side is she on. you really have to ask yourself that, because i'm almost reluctant to keep giving this any attention, because and let's not let pete buttigieg off the

hook either, because he implied something similar, and this notion that america is to blame, after we defended ourselves, again i could go back through the attacks but we're disrupting an escalation against us and we defended ourselves plus we knew there was imminent attacks coming and it's really tragic what happened to that airliner i can't overstate that enough either and as soon as it happened i thought to myself, i have a feeling that this is the air iranians who did this, and they didn't do it on purpose of course, but they were jumpy, they just attacked us and thought we were coming back and of course the president showed patience and restraint, but it's tragic and even more tragic that we can't come together as a people and unite and support the iranian people in their quest for freedom and support our own service members and president as he defends americans. >> dean: real quick congressman, how do you talk to the other congressmen when this comes up, when you hear something like that, how do you not be very voc

iferous in your discussing that with her? >> well i have been and i don't deal with her directly. i'm not even on the arm services committee, but you know the way congress works, you do interact with your colleagues quite a bit , but if you're not on the same committee you might not ever run into them over the course of the day, but it's harder and harder to look them in the face and you have to wonder, do they really believe this? like does she really believe this or is she so partisan that this is the first instinct that comes out of her mouth? pete: that's an honest let's go down that trail just for a second. do they really believe america is to blame or do they hate the president so much they have to side with the iranians? where are we? >> yeah, well you know, we'll get into a really deep discussion of history and how america is always to blame, and that has in infiltrated our

education system for many many years so that is part of it, that is part of the leftist narrative, like you see everybody in a lens of victims and oppressors, so they actually see their own country, the united states government as the ultimate oppress or and that's why they want power over the government to change it so that's a deeper discussion why but the shallow discussion why is yes they really hate the president and he can't do anything right. >> lisa: congressmen for those who question taking out qassem soleimani, can you just briefly talk about his range of terror? >> oh, yeah absolutely. its been going on for about 20 years. he rose to power during the revolution: he made his name during the iran/iraq war and he took over about 20 years ago and he was creating sleeper cells in bahrain and instigating civil war in yemen and syria and iraq, and is responsible for over 600

death because of more advanced i ed's they used against us in iraq, and again, boarding u.s. never it vessels, ballistic missile tests that are nuclear capable, attacking our base, killing u.s. citizen recently and orchestrating an attack on our embassy. the list is very long and the list was about to get longer. pete: absolutely, so in other news, nancy pelosi is finally getting around to those articles over to the senate. it was so urgent and we just sat on it for a while. why the wait and why do you think she's moving now? >> so many questions, add it to the list of bad political decisions by democrats. first of all, defending soleimani and then this very strange impeachment saga. i don't know. maybe she wants to change the media narrative right now because clearly democrats are in the wrong on the soleimani narrative so they are going to switch back to sending the impeachment articles over. it begs a lot of questions.

why delay in the first place, why this false notion that mitch had has to make your case stronger for you? you already voted on it, so according to the democrats, this case is already clear. now they are saying effectively, they are saying it's not clear in that mitch mcconnell has to be in charge of making the case stronger for them. well that's a false pretense. that of course doesn't have to happen and then the next question is why now? i don't know, maybe she did some polling and figured it was the right time, who knows. lisa: well that was how they got to bribery, right? yes, actually. >> dean: congressman dan crenshaw not a member of the arm services committee. pete: well he is, by default. congressman thanks a lot we appreciate your time. thanks for having me. pete: an accused serial robber holds up a bank after getting released from jail, without bail , in new york city. police say the man robbed four banks in two weeks, and now he's accused of ransacking a fifth.

>> lisa: it's the fifth firefighter death as a mega fire poses a new threaten gulfing more than 1 million-acres. >> dean: anna coyman is live from the rural fire headquarters in sidney with the latest. reporter: yes we have just received confirmation that a fifth firefighter has been killed in these devastating australian wildfires and details are thin, but we have learned that it happened in the state of victoria and some sort of vehicular accident. i spoke with a representative from new south wales fire who says this is the reality of what this wildfire personnel is up against on a daily basis. >> we will have a job to do, but obviously, when someone goes out there, they leave their family and friends behind and they make the commitment to go and help the community, and then lose their life doing so. it's a very raw emotion. reporter: and we're told that the conditions are worse in the state of victoria than where we are here and the emergency operation center we continue to

monitor these screens, 123 fires are continuing to burn, and we have 48 that are out of control. a representative for new south w ales fire says they are happy with the way the grueling night and day did end, yet there were some injuries but fortunately no loss of life here, in and as the conditions are starting to ease up a bit, the force is not easing up. i can tell you some numbers about what that is, 3,400 wildfire personnel are working this weekend, 800 fire trucks and over 100 aircraft. i also learned tonight a large portion of the americans which have been flown in are piloting those critical large air tankers and these fires have been rang ing for months and the crisis is expected to go on for months more. >> as history is starting to tell us in the last few years, our fire season stretches longer and longer into autumn and we can expect to find fires up through may and june. reporter: meanwhile, a sign of

australian solidarity, the sales of the iconic sidney opera house are lit up in support for firefighters and folks impacted by the bush fires, as they are called in this country. and as i send it back to the studios, it's just important to remember, since october, when these fires started, started early and they are expecting it to end potentially late, 27 people have now died, thousands of structures have been absolutely demolished and thousands more have been facing numerous evacuation orders. it's not over yet. pete: thank you. >> lisa: our prayers are with you, everyone in australia and with those firefighters and first responders. and the poor animals too. >> dean: oh, yeah. >> lisa: thanks, anna. pete: numbers show more u.s. students are homeless than ever before so what's being done to ensure they still get a top quality education? well we're going to ask the secretary of education herself, betsy devos on this program, coming up next.

pete: we are back with a fox news alert, precisely the type you never want to read. two u.s. service members are killed and two others hurt in a roadside bomb overnight in afghanistan. officials say the blast happened in the kandahar province, the taliban claiming responsibility for the attack and the names of the soldiers killed have not yet been released. pray for them and their families that may not even know yet at this time. >> dean: it's a tough one. well the homeless crisis, reaching cities across the country and schools are feeling the impact. nationwide more students are homeless than ever before. >> lisa: in new york city over 114,000 students were homeless during the last academic year,

that's 1 in every 10 children in the cities public schools so what can we done to make sure disadvantaged kids have accessed the top quality education? pete: here to discuss is the secretary of education, betsy devos. madam secretary, thank you very much for being here we really appreciate it. answer that question for us, what more can be done to ensure that everyone gets access to quality education? well dean, we know from our nation's report card that too many students are not having an education experience that really helps them develop their fullest potential. two out of three eighth graders can't read or do math at the level they should be able to, and so president trump and this administration is very focused on helping create new pathways and more freedom for students and their families to find the right fit for their education. we know that kids learn differently. they all need different things at different stages in their

life, and so introducing more kinds of opportunities for them to achieve their fullest potential is what we are really focused on doing. >> dean: secretary devos, you're certainly someone who didn't have to be in service to the nation, you're financially just fine, well off, but you choose this has always been a passion of yours, finding ways to educate the disadvantaged here in the united states of america, you're a big advocate of school choice, the school voucher system, charter schools. are these some of the answers to that problem? >> well we know that again, more education freedom, and it can mean a whole wide range of types of schools, or types of learning experiences, and it doesn't have to necessarily even be a school building, but introducing more freedom and especially empowering families who don't currently have the economic means to make those decisions, empowering them to be able to find that right fit for

each of their children is really a major focus of this administration, of this president, and we introduced a federal piece of federal legislation called education freedom scholarships, that would really give rocket fuel to efforts that are already happening in a number of states across the country. we want to make sure that every child, no matter where they learn, or how they learn, has the best opportunity ever to get educated and learn for their future. >> lisa: and secretary about that we've seen 2020 democrats really abandon school choice. i want you to listen to this and then i have a question for you. >> far too many charter schools in america are performing worse, much worse, than public schools. >> if i'm president, betsy devos' whole notion from charter schools to this are gone. >> for profit charter schools must come to an end. lisa: and secretary, senator corey booker whose running

actually worked alongside you before on school choice being a huge advocate and then he abandoned that position especially during your confirmation hearing. why would he do that? >> well we know that the democrat candidates for president are beholden to the teacher's union all trying to get their endorsements but the fact is that over 1 million families are on wait lists for charter schools. there aren't enough of these options there aren't enough of these opportunities across the country that we need more of them, not less of them, because they are providing many students the kind of opportunities and the kind of direction that they need. the results prove out and the demand is there. pete: secretary, there was a democratic congresswoman, fredri co wilson whoof accused you last month of wanting to destroy education, it wasn't about economic freedom or school choice. you're out to destroy the public or government-run school system. how do you answer your critics who make that charge, 2020

democrats amongst them as you try to give education choice to people? >> the reality is that i care deeply about every single child no matter where they learn, no matter where they attend school, and this president and this administration cares deeply about the future and the opportunity that every child has to become everything that they can be. that's why we are not satisfied. we will not rest until we make the kinds of changes and introduce the kinds of empowerment and opportunities that all families need, that currently, the wealthy and powerful and the well-connected have, but those who don't have those means are stuck with too many cases in schools and in situations that simply aren't working for them, and we're not going to stand for that. pete: i still hear, secretary, a lot about common core when i'm out and about. people watching their kids trying to do homework they can't figure out themselves. what's being done by this administration to get after

common core? >> well just as president trump campaigned on to end common core , common core has been ended this administration has implemented the every student succeeds act as congress intended, and there is no common core at the federal level. we have also continued to expand opportunities around career and technical education and internship opportunities. again, acknowledging that all kids learn differently, they have different interests, there are different opportunities that require different kinds of preparation, and those are the kinds of things that we need to continue to give fuel to so that more students can access the future that they need. >> dean: thank you so much for your time and your passion and we appreciate you talking to us this morning. pete: thank you. have a great day. thanks for the opportunity. pete: absolutely i guess it comes out of the fact that i still live in a state where we have common core. >> dean: i was trying to help my

god kids the other day do math. >> lisa: i can't do math. >> dean: i couldn't do a math problem i had to estimate it. pete: no and then they do experiential reading like there's no phonics involved. >> dean: but at the state level there's common core. secretary devos, she's doing a great job. pete: that's right. well 2020 democrats want to tax the rich but elizabeth warren and bernie sanders plans could come with a $1 trillion price tag for america's workers. karl rove here to react to that, next. >> ♪ly i see, this is what i want to be, suddenly i see, why the hell you mean so much to me ♪ keeping me from the things i love to do. talk to your doctor, and call 844-214-2424.

>> ♪ everybody's working for the weekend ♪ >> dean: that's just a thing. pete: no this is just, um, ed henry and i sang this for karaoke at a christmas party. >> lisa: is there video of it? >> dean: is it available or did it get destroyed? pete: it's on a separate server. >> i promise we one show it tomorrow. pete: let's bring in somebody who knows how to karaoke, i'm sure, karl rove. you know who he is. karl, no karaoke in your pastor future? >> no. we don't dance, we don't sing, and i've got to tell you, hegseth if that video exists

destroy it now. the world cannot stand the trauma of you and ed henry karaoking. i mean really. pete: it's on on the server don't worry about it. >> i appeal to you you're the only adult on that set. >> dean: he's right. >> that is a lot of responsibility. [laughter] okay so i will move this conversation forward then. so karl, you look at the recent iowa polling out of the des moines register with bernie sanders at 20%, warren at 17%, pete buttigieg is at 16%, biden is at 15% and klobuchar is at 5% so my question to you is are people overlooking bernie sanders right now? >> well, bernie is going to do well in some of these early contests and will do well throughout because he has a following, he has the resources and the message. we forget that he got like 46-47 % of the vote against the hillary clinton machine. you're right, the new des moines register poll and we've got to

be cautious about these state level polls, but one of the better polls in the country is the des moines register poll, and you can see it's pretty close to the real clear politics of two other polls that have occurred in the last three weeks , and there are two things to take away from this. one is we're a little bit worried about if i were joe biden. 15% is the threshold, you've got to get 15% in order to get delegates, so you've got to come in at 15% or better, otherwise she gets shut out of the delegates and the other thing that we got to keep in mind is that these people are all bunched up. think about how we're going to separate out the 41 delegates that there are in iowa. if the des moines register is right biden will come in with 9, bernie will lead the pack with 12 and warren and pete buttigieg will each have 10. if the real clear politics average is right everybody will be grouped between 9 and 11 delegates so we're splitting this thing up pointing towards a

longer process, and maybe potentially a convention that doesn't have a winner on the first ballot. pete: wow that would be fascinating. >> dean: it's about numbers, so here is more numbers, 1.2 trillion of projected lost earnings over 10 years, for the plan and 1.6 trillion lost earnings over 10 years for sanders plan. pete: so karl, these are the cost of the wets tax they both want to impose on the tops, the most wealthy in our country, and they say it'll bring in revenue, economies look at it and say no it's actually going to cost us trillions of dollars, does the reality of those numbers percolate into the primary here? >> well it won't into the primary because there is the left of the democratic party that believes in things like this but in the general election this will be a problem for them. think about it. every major industrialized country in the world, democracy that has attempted a wets tax has ultimately stepped back of it and we're talking about

social democratic governments like these in the scandanavian region in central europe and why because people take steps to avoid the tax, so there's tax avoidance, and second of all, if you're not going to get the benefit from having wealth, why accumulate wealth, so yeah, absolutely. this is a bad idea and think about it. we tax people when they make money. we tax people when they use money and the wealth tax says essentially we're going to tax the money even if you aren't using it or earning it, if it's just sitting there we're going to tax it and take it away and if you can do it to the top one- tenth of 1% what about if we started saying we'll start taking away your wealth, you've got the value of a car, you've got the value of your house, but we're all going to every year, we're going to start taking away 2% of the value of that, just confiscate it because do you know what? wealth is bad. wealth is good. wealth is where we get the money to invest in creating jobs and plants and equipment and new

technologies and innovation. it's the savings that people set aside. some people have more savings than others. good for them. we shouldn't be driven by greed like this wealth tax has as its center. lisa: karl, speaker pelosi is finally saying she's going to send over those articles of impeachment. president trump had thoughts on this. this is what he said. he said new polling shows that the totally partisan impeachment hoax is going nowhere. a vast majority wants to do nothing democrats to move on to other things now, so karl, you're always looking at the polls and the political angles. how does this play in 2020? >> well i loved how over the last five weeks, six weeks the two weeks running into the democratic impeachment vote and then the three weeks since, everybody has been saying oh, nancy pelosi is so demonstrating such leadership and what a terrific poker player she is. you know, the last three weeks have been baffling to me. how could anybody think that

what she was attempting do, i'm the speaker of the house and i'm going to dictate to the senate how they will use their " constitutional sole power" to try an impeachment. remember that's from the constitution. the senate shall have the sole power to try an impeachment. the house has the sole power to impeach. would she have sat there and said well yeah, before i move to exercise my power to impeach that the house has i've got to get the senate's permission? forget it. i mean, i don't know what she was trying to do but at the end of the process she looks weak, the democrats look partisan, and petty and this whole process looks small and completely political. you know, no good has been done for her cause, but more importantly, no good has been done for the country by this. >> dean: karl rove. pete: thank you for joining us on this saturday we appreciate it. i can't leave without telling you dean? my makeup artist told me she's had a crush on you since you were saving the world.

>> lisa: give her a shoutout. >> dean: tell her hi, for me, ka rl, please. pete: tell her to take a number. her and the rest of america. she will be completely terrified that i said this and i will pay a penalty here. >> lisa: thank you, karl. we've got to move on. >> dean: right on everything including lisa is the only adult on this couch. >> lisa: now we're turning to headline, we've got a lot of serious news to get to here. fox news alert, two u.s. service members are killed, and two others are hurt in a roadside bomb overnight in afghanistan. officials say the blast happened and the names of the soldiers killed have not yet been released at least 22 service members have been killed in afghanistan since january of 2019 and it comes as the trump adminitration trying to restart peace talks with the taliban which is claiming responsibility for the attack. gosh, prayers with them with their families. >> california governor gavin newsom wants to expand taxpayer-

funded medical benefits for illegal immigrants. last year, california became the first state to offer health benefits to low income adults, 25 and younger, living in the country illegally. newsom now wants to extend those benefits to undocumented immigrants, 65 and older. it would cost taxpayers an estimated $350 million each year >> dean: yes, you're welcome. >> lisa: and actors joaquin phoenix and martin sheen arrested at jane fonda's climate change protest in washington reportedly ignoring police commands while marching up the steps of the u.s. capitol and she's holding a weekly initiative called fire thrill friday and those are your headlines and pete is moving around here. he looks like he's got thoughts on that one. i'm waiting for you you to, i could feel you getting worked up >> dean: actors getting arrested for not following directions.

pete: rick you don't have to give it, just give us the straight up weather while we move barriers behind you. rick: exactly there's a lot of construction going on here. >> [laughter] rick: man, we've got a spectacular day across the eastern seaboard enjoy the changes overnight tonight but this big line of storms take a look at the map and show you we've got these storms across the south, tornado warning just to the south of jackson, mississippi right now and you see all of those larger red boxes those are tornado watches that we're dealing with, and this line of storms continues to pull to the east, and it's moving really fast, so pretty much everybody is going to be seeing winds 40-60 miles an hour as this line moves towards the east, and within that line, a few some of those storms will be embedded with some tours so you have to watch that closely. snow with this, ice with this across parts of michigan, northern parts of new york, in across areas of maine as well some of that ice could be really thick, maybe about a quarter to half an inch gathering on everything, will cause a lot of power outages as well.

it's all gone out of here by tomorrow afternoon. all right, guys back to you inside. >> thanks rick. pete: appreciate it. well as bernie sanders takes a small lead before the iowa caucuses, our next guest says there's a good chance the vermont socialist will become the democrat nominee. he explains why, next. >> ♪ how do you like me now, now that i'm on my way, used to think i'm crazy, standing here today ♪ and my lack of impulse c, is about to become your problem. ahh no, come on. i saw you eating poop earlier. hey! my focus is on the road, and that's saving me cash with drivewise. who's the dummy now? whoof! whoof! so get allstate where good drivers save 40% for avoiding mayhem, like me. sorry! he's a baby!

pete: the countdown to the iowa caucus is on and senator bernie sanders tabbing the lead in a recent iowa poll. our next guest says in a new op-ed in the wall street journal , be prepared the democratic socialist could soon be the front runner for the nomination. here to explain wall street journal columnist and fox news contributor jason riley. thanks for being here. >> good morning. pete: so i'm in agreement with you on this. i think the democratic socialist is the front runner why do you feel that way yourself? >> well i remember what bernie

sanders did four years ago. they basically tied hillary clinton in iowa, he won easily in new hampshire and he is well- prepared to do the same thing this year. he's leading in iowa, he's leading in new hampshire, he is second in national polls behind joe biden. but i still think the front runner and the odds on favored to win but bernie sanders is not some french candidate and i get the sense that the washington press is sometimes treating him like he's tom stire, and he's not and he's got a ton of money, pete. he outraised all of his rivals by a long shot, and that's what's taking two weeks off the campaign trail to recover from a heart attack. pete: absolutely here is those fourth quarter fundraising numbers other than president trump, bernie sanders right there, and he's raising it on average, at about $20 a pop, which means you've got room for additional donations down the road when you need those resources and it's thinning out for others. >> and it's also an indication that he's got a very solid base

that is very enthusiastic, and the caucus states tend to reward candidates who have that sort of thing so that means he could be in play in nevada as well and he could have a lot of momentum coming out of super tuesday, as he picks up a couple early victories here and i think the democratic party, the higher ups , the establishment, will have to think twice, about turning on him, because it's very hard for them to want a general election without the supporters who are still upset about how they were treated. pete: if it weren't for super delegates he may have been the nominee, but what is the biggest , besides him being a socialist lunatic what's his biggest liability or his impediment to win? >> i think minority support is his biggest problem. he does okay with younger, black voters, but those aren't the ones who play disproportionately in the primaries. older black voters are the ones who turn out for primary elections, and he does not do very well with them. now, he says, or i should say

the black voters are telling polsters they like joe biden not only because he was president obama's vice president, but also because they think joe biden can win. so if bernie racks up a few early victories it could go a long way, i think. pete: wait a second you think he can cut into the election argument by showing support and building momentum? >> the other thing that will help him is that on super tuesday, mike bloomberg is going to be entering the race and i think to the extent that bloomberg does well, it will be a joe biden expense. pete: interesting. >> so that will also help, i think, bernie sanders close the gap. pete: wouldn't that be ironic of all of those millions end up helping, the billionaire runs in and happens to help the guy who hates billionaires. jason riley thanks a lot. >> thank you. pete: good stuff and check out the column at the wall street journal. well it's a new diet trend that lets you drink wine and eat chocolate. >> now, eating!

>> i font want any, thank you. >> eat it! pete: that does not appear to be the diet trend but something like that, does it really work? we'll break down this diet, that's coming up, next. >> ♪ you have my heart and soul in your hand ♪ there's otezla. otezla is not a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. with otezla, 75% clearer skin is achievable. don't use if you're allergic to otezla. it may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. otezla is associated with... ...an increased risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts or if these feelings develop. some people taking otezla reported weight loss. your doctor should monitor your weight and may stop treatment. upper respiratory tract infection and headache may occur. tell your doctor about your medicines and if you're pregnant or planning to be. otezla. show more of you.

pete: we are 11 days into the new year but whose counting, and one trendy diet is getting a lot of attention thanks to singer and writer adele. >> lisa: she's reportedly lost about 100 pounds using the sirt food diet. >> dean: so what is it, here to tell us is registered dietician. it sounds great, wine and chocolate are the buzzwords right? >> exactly and everybody wants

to know what she's doing can we do it too so just to break down what the sirtfood diet, so it's a type of protein found in our bodies that helps delay cells of generation and they help to boost metabolism, maybe increase muscle mass and help burn fat. >> dean: good stuff. pete: so if we drink enough chocolate, or eat enough chocolate and drink wine. >> you're good. >> lisa: i mean, i'm done sign me up. >> unfortunately that's not the whole thing of it. so the other part of it is calorie restriction so we know that calorie restriction helps boost the sirts, along with compounds in these foods found here, so we have coffee, which people are excited about, this is where people get excited. so you can have a glass of wine, you can have a couple pieces of dark chocolate a night, go for it it's saturday morning why not >> dean: that's hard to break off there. >> but unfortunately it's not a green light to go have a bottle of wine or a whole bar of dark

chocolate. on the diet the first two weeks is pretty intense calorie restriction so the diet promotes lose seven pounds in seven days and that's because the first week you'll be on 1,000-calories a day which is very low. second week is 1,500-calories a day mostly green juices, one solid food a day using the foods that we see here, and after that , it's said that you will have boosted the sirts in your body so you'll be more efficient at losing weight and metabolism is boosted. pete: it almost sounds like intermittent fasting. lisa: as a registered dietician is this a diet you'd recommend to your clients? >> listen there's no long term research to promote this diet specifically is really effective what we do know already is that all of the foods here are nutrient-dense, super foods in their own right so i definitely promote adding for all of us adding these foods into our healthy diet. >> lisa: especially right here i'm all about a glass of wine. >> you had me at chocolate.

pete: a lot of greens i'm seeing >> dean: you got the wrong end of the table. pete: could this be harmful to people? >> no so it's up to you whether you want to take that first two weeks of calorie restriction. it's going to be uncomfortable but you will lose weight fast whether that weight stays off is another story but listen adding these foods to your every day diet is absolutely healthy and in no way harmful. >> lisa: in moderation. >> until it comes to the wine and chocolate. pete: tips for dieting real quick what are they? >> so we're 11 days into the new year. new year new you. even 11 days. >> dean: they're starting to thin out. >> and people are starting to rethink their goals so if you go on a new diet or set any goal first thing is set your intentions take a pen and paper, write down why are you doing this, what do you want out of it , put it on your refrigerator door, bathroom mirror and just remind yourself why did you do this? >> dean: remind yourself every day. >> when you start losing

motivation you have that there. second make yourself a priority. so you put your kids, work, all of that on your calendar, put your meal prep and your gym on your calendar just like you would anything else. and hold yourself accountable so i love, if you can do it with a buddy, great. just even complain to each other post it all over your social media the more people that know that your on this diet the less likely you are to fall off. pete: so it's sort of like shame yourself. >> and look at adele, she looks amazing. why did adele cross the street? to say hello from the other side >> [laughter] >> dean: it happened right here. pete: we have more of that more fox & friends on the other side. if your gums bleed when you brush, you may have gingivitis. and the clock could be ticking towards bad breath, receding gums, and possibly... tooth loss. help turn back the clock on gingivitis with parodontax. leave bleeding gums behind. parodontax.
