we asked stu varney of to help us out. they cite independent business consultants and others to speak to the propositions that major corporations are doing a financial calculation and they think i may be much better off for us even if they have to pay a penalty to dump massive numbers of people into government-run exchanges and not keeping them on the private health plans. >> reporter: you're right, megyn, they are doing the math, making a calculation. they go to people like deloit to find out what the math of the future is. how much is it going to cost me, the corporation to give health insurance to my employees years down the road. how much is it going to cost? the answer they don't always like. everybody knows that the cost of health insurance is going up, quite sharply. so corporations have to balance that rising cost of covering their own employees with dumping those employees, dropping them completely, paying a fine to the government, not getting the tax credit for what they pay already for coverage, that's the calcu

stu, thank you. fox news alert we are going to the white house now in the rose garden where we expect the president to make the announcement that general james jones is calling it quits and we have a new national security adviser coming in. >> restore american leadership in the world. over the past 20 months that is exactly what we've done. during this time i've relied every day on the advice and counsel of my national security adviser general gym jones. when i talked to jim about taking this job shortly after the election it was a difficult decision for him. he had just retired from the military, had a wide range of family obligations, but because of his patriotism, his dedication to keeping america safe we were able to agree that he would serve. we asked that he would serve for about two years. i am extraordinarily thankful to both he and his wife diane that they agreed to make the additional sacrifice to our country. jim has decided to step aside as national security adviser later this month and h

stu varney is with us. the employees of these banks signed documents in foreclosure cases without verifying the information in them, what does that mean? you had a house that was potentially in trouble and they just says for close on them, who cares. >> reporter: you put it into foreclosure but you don't have the right documentation to do it. some of the signatures were false or forged we understand. some documentation simply wasn't there, recordkeeping was extremely lax. a paperwork mess which has led to three major banks holding off on any more foreclosure proceedings and halting the ones they've got going. think about it, if this extends to other major banks you will have a nation-wide blanket halt on the foreclosure business, which is huge. 300,000 new foreclosure notices go out each and every month. if they are all put on hold, if you freeze foreclosure procedures there is all kinds of ramifications for a housing market that is already in a mess. megyn: i want to get to that. that is an important piece

megyn: and if you are looking for someone to blame, stu, you tell me who gets the blame. because the articles say that it is the banks who foreclosed inappropriately, improperly, prematurely, without the right paperwork, without crossing the testimonies and dotting the is on people in their homes. no question many deserved it but some may not have and the banks include bank of america, j.p. morgan chase, allied financial, and others, so are they the villians here? >> it's a little too easy to point the finger and blame directly at the banks. yes, in many cases the paperwork is faulty, and on a legalistic basis, you could say that those are not valid foreclosure processes. fair enough. but everybody who's involved in this, all of the homes which are being foreclosed on, the homeowner has not paid his or her bills. it is the process, the legalistic process, of foreclosure that may be at fault. now the attorneys general are launching an investigation in 49 states. that puts on hold the entire foreclosure process. megyn, what you've got is a defacto foreclosure freeze spreadi

stu varney is the host of varney & company and he's here now. let's start with the latter headline which really matters to the afternoon american. one in five homeowners now facing trouble on the mortgage, not necessarily foreclosure, but trouble. >> reporter: 20 out of 100 mortgage holders are in serious trouble. let me break down the 20. who are they? what trouble are they? out of every 209 are way behind on the mortgage, foreclosure is in the near term future. another six have fallen behind on the payments. they tried to catch up, they can't catch up, foreclosure likely for half of them down the road. for the remaining five out of the 20 they are 20% underwater, that means they mayo $120,000 on the mortgage, the house is worth a hundred thousand dollars. megyn: that's why you see the so-called short sales that are out there now where they just sell it for a priceless than they paid for it and the bank approves that and they take a loss. >> reporter: what i've given you is a picture of the ground floor. this is how it is for 20 out of every 10

so brit, when experts talk about and you've got very respected people like stu rothenberg and charlietalking about right now 55 seats, we're in historic territory. >> when they say that, they say 55 and it could go higher. not saying 55 and it might be lower. those are really fairly conservative estimates. the important thing about this, the practical effect of republican control of the house will be any major new obama initiatives will be stopped, stalled. they won't be able to pass it. the political effect is more interesting, and that's really not about the republicans so much than it is about how the democrats and the white house and on capitol hill react to the message from the eelectorate. at the moment, that will depend how the margin goes. if it's 55 they may say as juan did, it's close. we had a bad economy. you will lose a lot of seats. stuff happens. we are going to fight on as much as before. if it's 65, 70, 75, it seems to me and they try that, they will be laughed out of town. it will be unthinkable. the margin may tell us a lot about how the losers respond. >> well, i t

this is a freeze on a big chunk of the economy. >> ok, but stu, because it's friday, i need some good news. so is there any solution on the horizon? >> no. i'm sorry. i'm very sorry. i wish i could give you good news on a friday morning but i can't. >> then i'm not going to say tgif to you. >> you will watch my show, will you not? >> very good segue. 9:20 eastern time on the fox business network. i promise i will watch because i still like you. >> glad to hear it, too. >> have a good weekend. coming up, some explosive new allegations against new jersey governor chris christie from a former employee and the wife of an american allegedly gunned down on a jet ski in a border lake under intense scrutiny about her story. >> i wouldn't do anything like that. i can understand since they say they can't find the body but they're not looking. they're not looking for him. >> now, cops say they can prove she's telling the truth. then bret favre busted for sexting. he's not talking. one of the sideline reporters ready to apparently tell all.

stu varney is anchor of varnny & company on the fox business network and joins us now. and that, you may or national be -- or not be surprised, folks, has politicians like harry reid calling for what? >> a moratorium on the foreclosure process, at the local level, it makes sense. beat up on the banks, demand that hard pressed homeowners in foreclosure proceedings can stay longer in the homes they can no longer afford. so as you said, you've got harry reid in nevada, the epicenter of the foreclosure movement, he wants a moratorium, debbie wasserman schultz in florida, she represents that area, she is in favor of a moratorium, joe garcia, way down south florida, he also wants a moratorium. at the local level it makes sense to call for more -- moratoriums on foreclosures. megyn: politically it makes sense. >> politically it does make sense. at the national level it's a different story. that's why the white house is conflicted. at the national level, a foreclosure moratorium slows down any recovery in the housing market. megyn: why the white house hasn't gone that far. >> n

stu varney, host of varney & company on the fox business network has thoughts on it. he's my guest now. it's interest-free loans to people who don't have jobs. >> reporter: if you lost your job suffered a big decline in income and you are three months in arrears on your mortgage you're eligible for a loan, no interest up to $50,000 up to two years. jenna: it sounds -- megyn: it sounds compassionate. >> reporter: yes it sounds humanitarian but there are questions raised. will the taxpayers get our money back. who will get the loans. is it targeted at people who may vote a certain way? are the politicians distributing taxpayer money to buy votes. megyn: why is there the allegation that it's political. >> reporter: because it will be handled by specific politicians. they are the ones that are directing the money within any constituency. housing of urban and development will say who gets the loans, who is in, who is out. they will be politically directed. there is always the suspicion that there is political motivation behind the give away of taxpayer money. megyn: how bi

stu told us 42 minutes ago, this is all about the law. >> this is cya on behalf of the banks when it comes to facing lawsuits. do you see it the same way? >> bill, you called this a foreclosure fiasco. i call it just a god awful mess. and you're right, what's happening out there is that you've got thousands of homeowners getting foreclosure notices and eviction notices and paying their mortgages. i want to make this point, though, bill. we do know 95-99 percent of the mortgage foreclosure notices being sent out are being sent out correctly that, is to people who haven't been paying their mortgages, but it's a big problem for the housing market now because if the foreclosure process does not work properly, i think it makes it very difficult to get to the bottom of the housing crisis so we can move out of this and move on. bill: so the answer to the why is this: that the banks are worried about legal proceedings down the road, okay? we got that now. >> right. bill: the white house, david axelrod, says he thinks it's a bad idea. >> this is -- for once the white house has taken apgs i ag

. >> stu rart, thank you. >> thank you very much. jenna: another story we're going to be watching very closely is this breaking news on a horrific, horrific story, "happening now" has been following closely, the connecticut home invasion, rape and murder of an innocent family. we could get a verdict in this trial at any moment. we have details ahead on that. >>> plus, what on earth is this guy doing? he's standing just feet away from hrafrba. why is he doing that? stay tuned. because we're taking you inside an active volcano, just ahead. jenna: right now in california, police locating an eight-year-old girl after issuing a statewide amber alert. harris faulkner that is story breaking at our news desk. hey harris. >> reporter: jenna, if you ever want to know how effective these amber alerts can be, this is perhaps one of the best examplees, the highway state patrol said they started getting spottings of this guy who they say took her at dawn this morning and it took just a couple of short hours, because it is earlier out there than on

we're getting a lot of questions from stu in tennessee, sesil from california, about the president'sorce one to do campaigning around the country, going to florida today. tell us about what we actually pay for as taxpayers when he uses air force one to make some of these campaign trips. >> well, i mean, the president travels air force one, regardless of whether he's going to political purposes or for official purposes. generally, the campaign has to pay some of the expenses that are related to campaign parts of the trip, so it happened with george bush, every president, because of their security, needs to be aboard air force one when they travel, and it's just the way things are, and generally, the campaigns have to pick up some of the expenses related to them. jenna: and chip, do we know if any of that is public knowledge about how much the taxpayers foot the bill versus the campaign? >> it actually is because the campaign has to disclose it. the national parties and state parties all kick in and pay for the expenses of air force one and taxpayers have some of the expenses but it's

see you at 9:20, stu. martha: let's look at the damage from that rare round of tornadoes. yesterday we showed you these pictures, and this is arizona, twisters in the town of belmont, 20 miles west of flagstaff, one tornado shoved 28 cars of a freight train right off the track, it must have ripped right through that train track area, another smashed through a mobile home lot. freddie macers say at least four tornadoes touched down, the first before dawn yesterday, a rude awakening indeed for folks there. >> the roof threw off and the sheetrock was falling on us, and we were all screaming, making sure everybody was okay. >> we were sleeping, all of the sudden i wake up to my husband yelling run, and i ran, and he put me into the bathtub, shut the door and that was the safest place to be. >> things started vibrating and it went over and we scooted across and then it was done in a second like that. and then we looked up and, of course, yelled for each other, wanted to know if we were alive or dead and we were alive, thank god. >> thank god is right. there were minor injuries,
