spokesman says the airstrikes sent an unambiguous message the president biden will act to protect us and coalition forces that many are reading a different message into last night's strike and that is a warning to iran that the us will respond to provocation. the airstrikes last night hit infrastructure byron backed militias and controlled point on the syrian side of the border. according to readers that is reuters, 17 people were killed. this is in response to an attack on a base used by us forces

the biden administration faces with iran. >> this shows they have to deal with the reality of iran on the ground and remember lloyd austen was the commander against basis. they carried out tens of thousands of airstrikes like this and is also shows they are closely watching with drones and

other surveillance, they see iraq or iran trying to spread weapons around that area, iraqis watched this closely too. the reality is team biden has to deal with iran's destabilization in syria and across the region. todd: the airstrike was overall the right move. jillian: to washington where the house is expected to vote on the $1.9 trillion relief bill today. todd: senate planetary deals a blow to democrats ruling against the $15 minimum wage in the bill. jillian: griff jenkins has more on what happens next. >> the fight for 15 crap took a knockout punch. elizabeth mcdonagh says the minimum wage increase does not qualify for special budget reconciliation rules. that was met with disappointment at the white house but determination to move forward.

>> the only way containers pandemic and help the american people is passing the plan as quickly as possible. >> reporter: speaker pelosi disappointed in ignoring the senate parliamentarian saying house democrats believe the minimum wage hike is necessary, therefore this provision will remain on the floor tomorrow. also the $1,400 stimulus checks, $400 weekly on employment benefits, expansion of the child tax credit, $350 billion in aid for state and local governments and $100 million for rapid expansion. the decision complicates matters because it means the minimum wage will have to be stripped out when it gets to the senate and when the senate approves, goes back to the house. they are in a deadline because unemployment benefits expire on march 14th. bernie sanders, the architect behind the increases because of the archaic and undemocratic rules of the senate we are

unable to move forwards to end starvation wages in his country. that fight continues. this as progressives aren't happy. they want to reject the parliamentarian tweeting this saying it is an advisory, not a ruling. vice president harris needs to disregard and the $15 minimum wage in order. meanwhile senate minority leader mitch mcconnell had this reaction. >> the guy live to raise taxes and no matter what they call the next package you can anticipate a significant tax increase for the american people. >> assuming the house passes a bill with minimum wage today and the senate strip that after that and send it back democrats can only lose 5 votes. in of progressives revolted in opposing the overall bill it would hand president biden his first major legislative loss. todd: people who need money

still wouldn't get their money. we will see. jillian: earlier this week president biden asked his critics what they would like to see cut from the covid-19 relief bill, sean hannity sharing his suggestions. >> i will tell you what to cut. we will start with a $350 billion bailouts for irresponsible state and local governments. in other words this money would go towards blue, high tax states with massive budget deficits, states that tax their residents into oblivion, states that never balance their budgets and are now looking for a handout from voters in red states who elect politicians, governors that are fiscally responsible state legislatures that don't raise taxes, states that balance their budget and fully fund pensions and didn't buy into the insane draconian shutdowns.

jillian: a florida congressman will explain why the bill will have devastating impact. todd: tiger woods transferred to another los angeles hospital as he recovers from that horrific crash earlier this week. he will have karen recovery to get a rod, screws and pins in his right leg. law enforcement officers say tiger does not remember that crash. senator rand paul growing president biden's nominee for assistant health secretary during her confirmation hearing. >> do you believe minors are capable of making such a life-changing decision? >> transgender medicine is a complex and nuanced field. i look forward to working with you. >> do you support the government intervening to override the parents consent to give a child. the blockers, cross sex hormones and or amputations surgery on breast and genitalia? >> i will be pleased to come to your office and talk with you and your staff about the complexity of the system?

>> reporter: doctor levine who is transgender refusing to save minors should be allowed to undergo sex reassignment surgery and hormone therapy. paul compared such procedures to gently mutilation calling her silence on the usual alarming. jillian: president biden warning americans to stay vigilant as he marks the halfway point on his goal of vaccinating 100 million americans in his first 100 days. >> we are halfway there. 15 million shots since i became president. this is not the time to relax. we must keep washing your hands, stay socially distant and for god's say, wear a mask. jillian: he noted the promise of johnson & johnson's vaccine which could receive fda approval as soon as this weekend. and ohio café receives a $7,000

locked down more than they needed to. what this bill does is not only give money to states based on population but an added calculation based on unemployment and new york and california with much higher unemployment rates have more money than states like florida and georgia because they've done things responsibly like reopen. when you look at giving money back to schools to help them reopen the problem is they have until 2028 to spend this money, like 2027, not helping coronavirus today. helping kids get back into classrooms today. the third part of this bill which is a complete travesty gives money to bridges from buffalo to canada, money for underground railroad's in silicon valley. silicon valley has so much money they can take people off of their social media accounts. they should be able to do it themselves but it is in his spending bill and it is a trash bill all the way around.

todd: the key parts of the bill as they were laid out, stimulus $6465 billion, unemployment checks 350 billion, state and local government aid, $350 billion, higher education $170 billion, tackling the vaccine $160 billion, small business relief $50 billion. you did a great job laying out what your problems are with this but based on what i laid out, what is hidden that the american public hasn't necessarily heard? that is in there as well? >> those are the things that are terrible. 9% of this bill goes to coronavirus vaccines, helping us get over the pandemic. the democrats have not changed their ideology or agenda when it comes to this bill. they've not looked at the actual science or what is happening in our economies. they haven't realized 50 million vaccinations, we are seeing case

numbers come down. it will only matriculate as more vaccines get out the door into the arms of people. this should be dramatically slimmed down and they are still $1 trillion from last year that have not been spent. why are we doing this bill? jillian: let's talk about cpac where donald trump will deliver his first public speech since leaving office, that will happen sunday. what do you think he needs to say to get this right? a lot of people are wondering the state and the future of the republican party and a lot of people still think the former president will play a role in it. how do we get it right? >> what the president should stay focused on his america first. so many americans whether you are a rancher on the southern border or a small business owner in the country, they want to hear about the policies that

created one of the greatest accumulations of wealth for americans whether you are at the top, lower, middle or end of the spectrum. what americans want to here's a former leader who will be focused on the american people and that is what it should be centered on. he did a phenomenal job taking sure black unemployment was the lowest in history, business formation was one of the highest in history and people had so much ability to grow their businesses and lives and his remarks on what his agenda was versus what the current administration's agenda is will be a fantastic speech for the american people. todd: any doubt in your mind trump is still the leader of the republican party? >> no doubt in my mind. even mitch mcconnell said if he's the nominee will support him. mitt romney said if he ran he would get the nomination. the president has vast support in the republican party. that remains for quite some time. jillian: there have been two

house democrats that since cable tv company letters asking why they carry conservative news channels. what is your reaction to that. with cancel culture everywhere, we are in a world where a lot of people feel their voices are being silenced it makes a lot of questions why we are canceling so much and not hearing what people say? >> it is letters like this why so many americans don't trust the left and anytime you put the left in power they do crazy things like this. going to a cable operator wondering why they are carrying networks like yours are other networks is absolutely draconian. it is a silencing effect. they are out of line and should be censured for what that letter said. this is ridiculous. this is the united states of america. we do not go to cable corporations and send letters asking why they are carrying certain channels over other channels. it is outrageous, should never be tolerated.

$570 million to go exclusively to federal employees if the state qualifies. todd: are we closer to a date on the california recall election? >> reporter: the movement recall governor gavin newsom has enough to trigger a special election. organizers say the signatures have been collected. they have 1.8 million. that means it will go to voters october and november, they want newsom held accountable for draconian lockdown policies, stifling small businesses across the state. todd: who will pay for content on twitter? >> reporter: a lot of people. let me tell you the story. the kardashians are a little over this.

witness attorney kathy katie. appreciate it. sorry to ask you to relive this day again. you probably relive this every day as you try to get justice for your daughter's but i understand the suspected killer would get 7 years for the double murder having served two, that would be 5 more at this point. can you tell me what happened that night? >> the date, for saturday morning that it happened. i received a phone call my two daughters were shot, the apartment was on fire.

when i got there, the officers told me the young man was missing, my daughter's car was missing. this is so devastating for us. we just feel victimized again. jillian: so sorry. >> tried to clean the crime scene up, wasn't successful. and then burned the apartment down, not considering all the residents there. the apple watches and indexes connecting to the crime. then he came back to the scene with us and acted like he didn't

know what happened and interviewed. and kept his call. i have three grandkids left, my youngest granddaughter is 3 years old, just turned 3 in january. her mom was murdered and the white butterflies. chases the butterflies, says hi, mommy, i miss you. that is the worst thing. jillian: i am so sorry for your loss, for your whole family. have you reached out to george gascon to try to talk to him

about this and to understand that 7 years is not nearly enough for what your family lost? >> he said he would look over the case. he would not use his blanket policy. he has some exceptions, he made sure he looked it over. he was very coldhearted. he didn't seem like he cared even though he said i care, i am sorry for your loss but at the end of the call, i have been a police officer for so many years and seen a lot of murders.

todd: i want to bring you in here. the goal of juvenile court, it is not punishment. that is emblazoned on everything they do. how cruel is it to felicia that the goal of gascon is rehabilitation when it should be punishment? just looking at this as an outsider this individual can't be rehabilitated, for killing two young girls. >> absolutely the california law allows for district attorney's office to use discretion and ask the court to treat a juvenile as an adult and because this particular person was only one month shy of his birthday the district attorney's office after the crime occurred filed the motion to ask to be heard in

adult course and the motion was pending for the last two years but because gascon's policy which is a blanket policy which does not allow prosecutorial discretion, on an individual basis for prosecutors in this case were forced to withdraw that motion. we argued against that, the judge might make an exception and a hearing to decide whether the defendant should go or stay in juvenile court. the judge did not believe he had the power to do that, and it was up to the district attorney's discretion. that was very disappointing for the family. devastating really. jillian: keep us updated on your end. i hope your grandchild continues to see butterflies because of

that gives comfort at a terrible time then we wish you all the comfort possible. felicia andrews, thank you for joining us. todd: let's take a deep breath and go to jd with the weather forecasts. it is an unconscionable decision, how are we looking weatherwise? >> very respectful and well done. let's talk about the weather. what can we expect? not as cold as we experienced the last couple weeks. we have some thunderstorms in the forecast for the southeast along the frontal boundary and a little snow where it is colder across the great lakes. this is the system here.

>> we are here to stand up and say that we are not going to allow this to happen, not on our watch. i will tell you, when elected, the first thing i will do, one of the first things is to shut down private detention facilities. just shut them down. jillian: that was kamala harris vow to go close migrant facility that reportedly reopen soon under biden administration. todd: ken cuccinelli. sir, thanks for being h here. how is the biden administration doing anything different than what you did under the trump administration, it sure sounds the same to me. kennedy: well, in terms of keeping kids that isn't doing anything differently. the one thing that they are doing is effectively inviting tons more into the country but the one thing you cannot do, they've got this open borders

policy now, catch and release all over. but the one type of person you cannot release is children and so they're having to open up all as they invite thousands of illegal aliens. the smugglers know it and the parents know it and they take advantage. jillian: the smugglers and the parents. take a look at this, washington post reporter reporting to fox news and other outlets claims hypocrisy. headline, quote, biden's new border move isn't like trump in cages. i want to get to the last line of it. you can see on your screen. it was controversial meaning trump administration policy because it forced children to be separated from their parents. were the kids always with their parents? ken: yeah, so kids were kept

with at least one parent in the facilities that we had operating. well, same facilities they are still operating. that was how the facilities were set up and the whole arrangement was no different than when you arrest someone for a crime. in this country you take them away to be prosecuted. so typically one adult would be in the position with the other adult staying with the family. jillian: let me jump in and clarify, sir. my question is more, did the kids always come up with their parents and try and come into the country with their parents? ken: no. the parents would intentionally would release them across the border because they were gaming the system. they knew if they released the kids across the border, eventually they'd get placed somewhere. it's really -- you think of it as a parent, good god, how can anybody do this. it would be clear -- it would be child abandonment anywhere else.

it would here child neglect. todd: quickly on last topic, privacy immigrant rights groups are slamming biden administration, continuation of trump-era policies. 45 seconds to you. you say don't be fooled by the biden administration promoting this smart tech, what do you mean by that? ken: yeah, so the technology does work. it's fine by itself, but if you don't have an agent behind it, if you spot incoming immigrants, illegal immigrants coming to the border, but you aren't willing to arrest them or deport them, it's irrelevant. why spot them other than to count them? the technology supplementing the wall has always had strong support where it's appropriate but without the backup policies it is useless. todd: devils in the details.
