>> we are back with a fox news alert breaking overnight eight people shot and killed and many others hurt after a gunman opened fire in the fedex facility in the indianapolis airport. anita vogel joins us live. >> this is referred to as a mass casualty event, police confirming eight people killed and four others hospitalized is

the shooter has also died. shots rang out in indianapolis at the fedex facility with several witnesses claiming they saw a man with an automatic rifle, here's the audio from the police dispatcher describing what happened. >> from inside. >> you can hear the shot. >> lying near security and the front entrance of the building. >> just frightening. when police arrived, they came into contact with an active shooter who then turned the gun on himself. they are aware of the shooting and are cooperating with the ongoing investigation. there is a reunification center

at a local hotel, fedex employees are not allowed to have phones with them at work, apparently made the reunification process more difficult. there are no details who the shooter was and what the relationship was with the fedex facility for any employees there. >> anita vogel live for us. army special forces and security studies jim hansen. using the background here in a security study, and the shooter's relationship to this facility but someone who have that background, can you tell us how difficult it will be to gain access inside a facility like this? >> obviously some sort of external physical security, if this person was an employee they would get in. kind of the hallmarks of a

workplace incident or domestic incident where the person worked there and may be able to gain access, or someone they had a relationship issue with, having a weapon will get you past more security in the united states, we do not have that level of threat, to overcome if we did that. jillian: there are no cell phones allowed inside the building, with your background with secure ready. some type of way to get in contact with people outside the building. right? >> it is odd to think everyone is so used to having their phone with them every second of the day being connected to everyone on earth in every possible way

but certainly an emergency like this. i'm sure they have landline phones and radio communications intercom style throughout the building to conduct operations and that is a way to get a call out to 9/11 and get a response on the way. that they didn't have a phone to connect to anyone else. >> the reason they don't have cell phones in these facilities is you have a lot of people's personal information and things like that going through these facilities every day. that being said you see a policy like this changing? >> was there a danger to the employees, to immediately contact emergency services or let other people know if there was something going on. if it is determined that was an

actual incident that caused more death, to rethink that policy. i would imagine there's access to some sort of communication, and letting the police and others know there was a situation that needed response. >> how long this seems like this usually last, if it were related to workplace incident? >> they generally are over very quickly. it is rare there is a situation where someone goes in with multiple magazines, traversing an entire building, shoot whoever affected them in a way that caused them to do this, not to take the response off of

them, it is the people they were targeting to bear the brunt of that craziness. >> we do not know this was an incident where the shooter was, don't of the relationship between the shooter and facility, that is information we are waiting to find out this morning but what we are looking at four people dead, four hospitalized, the suspect took his own life when police arrived on the scene. they came into contact with an active shooter who turned the gun on himself. we will wait for any updates on that. thank you for your insight, we appreciate it. switching gears congressional democrats kicking up their push to pass the us supreme court, the progressives looking to increase the number of judges from 9 to 13 quickly met with opposition for republicans and even leaders of their own party.

and democratic analyst, thank you for being with us this morning. i will start with you. i want to know your thoughts on this. >> there is nothing in the constitution, adding justices to the supreme court. it is not changed since 1869, the number on the supreme court, we need to be honest and stop playing politics. america's trust in the judicial system has eroded since 2016 when congress, the republicans and mitch mcconnell refused to confirm eric garland under the premise that president obama was going -- his term was going to expire and we were almost a year out but yet justice barrett was confirmed only months before the presidential election.

i certainly think president biden is fulfilling his campaign promises, a panel considering this and see if this is an option. >> you think this is a dangerous precedent. >> i certainly do. it is called politics. we can't have it, at that moment but it is a conversation nonstarter, and and we are so sorry that we don't have it their way. it is a reality. it is not going to happen. we've got folks like joe

manchin, coming into a midterm election, all these factors coming into play not to mention biden on record multiple times saying he is not for. >> nancy pelosi saying she's not bringing this to the floor. take a listen. >> do you support the bill to expand the supreme court and when you commit to bringing that bill to the floor? >> i support the president's commission to study a proposal. no plans to bring it to the floor. jillian: president biden and nancy pelosi, a big push for progressives, that she's not down with it. >> we know there are concerns whether or not nancy pelosi is progressive enough for the new democratic party. there are traditionalists, individuals, to push back on

this, politics is ever evolving, nancy pelosi's position, and to determine, the republicans missing the fact, in 2016, republicans refused to consider merrick garland, now when we have a democratic president saying no, court packing is not an option. jillian: joe manchin opposes court packing, those are important keys in the senate. >> i want to be clear. what happens was not court packing, that is not what you call packing the court. it is seizing the opportunity when it is available.

we have seats available and what any president would do. joe manchin, they don't have the votes to do so and don't have the votes. we are coming into the midterm election. either way it is not going to happen. they talk about things of change from the economy standpoint. and the far left trying to influence joe biden and multiple times talking about something that is not going to happen. adding 2 or 3 or 4, in regards of the economy or the senses not going to happen. it is a waste of time. there will be a strong rebuke not just for republicans but many individuals, the american people who say you can't do that.

jillian: set up parent in new york city taking legal action to get their kids back in the classroom full time. they say students suffering under the current hybrid system and making to be back in school. new york city mom leading the charge joins us now. thank you for being here. i know it has been a whirlwind, there has been back and forth and you among many others are completely frustrated. kids are set to return to school

on april 20 sixth. however, i know an update from parents receiving emails telling them that the purpose of education is putting a 3 foot rule on hold so do you know does this put the april 26th they do in jeopardy now? >> april 26th is the day when 51,000 students who had previously been fully remote, newly opted in students are set to return. that is still holding. however, elementary schools sent out emails to parents telling us they adopted the 3 foot rule in the classroom and all kids in most schools, not all schools, would be going full-time at the same time as the new kids would return on april 20 sixth.

last night we got a flurry of text email calls from parents were panicking because their schools sent some emails saying the 3 foot was on hold, no one is coming back full time we will keep you updated but there has been a holdup with the union. that is the rumor. i haven't gotten confirmation. >> put your head down and cry when you get these emails and you see this. you feel for your kids who have been struggling. is that what made you become such a force to put your foot down and say i need to fight legally? >> yes because we are not seeing any advocacy for the children on the part of the doe and city. they are failing our children, we are hoping they are seeing the urgency the children need to be back in school, crazy

schedule up and down, the will that was around up until a few weeks ago that would shut down schools for 10 days with no scientific basis, schools would get shutdown for 5 times, 50 days in september. we don't know what to expect and we can't rely on the mayor to look to science for guidance on how to bring kids back to school time. ashley: you have two kids that are young, 7, and 10. what are the differences you've seen in the last year? >> not having the consistency of the schedule has been so disruptive it is hard to get them to go to sleep at night or to wake up in the morning. my 7-year-old cries it is so sad she doesn't understand why they are all these days she can't see her teacher, her class or her

friends, socialization has been impeded in a big way. the cold war is -- there aren't that many kids in the class to begin with and many of the kids they know on alternate days, it is a strange environment. i call it the new normal, they don't accept it. we want them back full time every day. pre-k-12, we are not talking mental or elementary school, middle or high school, middle or high school are not coming back full time and there's no current plans to adopt three feet for them so we are completely missing those kids and they are vulnerable too. jillian: keep us updated how everything is. ashley: people killed in a fedex

facility in india. we are monitoring the balance on this breaking story, stick with us.
