monica, should de blasio step down? >> mayor de blasio should step down but he won't.ody resigns in disgrace anymore. unfortunately. look, the most critical relationship that any big city mayor could have is not what the professional race hustlers it's with his police force. this police force and this mayor have had a very thorny relationship from the beginning. now this mayor has lost whatever confidence and whatever trust that he had had in him which was shaky to begin with he has lost that without that corner stone. this mayor cannot govern the city of new york effectively and therefore he should go. >> monica you pointed something out from the very beginning your words, new yorkers knew what they were getting when they voted with this guy. >> some did. he won with 72% of the vote. very low turnout election when he was elected. he took that as a giant mandate to go ahead with leftist ideology and bash the cops which he continued to do until the assassination of these two police officers. so i think a lot of new yorkers understood what they were getting and they went

there's a way out of this for de blasio. and i think because he started this riff, he will have to show that he's really sincere, and not by just issuing a statement and support now. a day late and a dollar short of his empathy for the slain officers for nypd. he could start through publicly through a written statement disavowing any thing with al sharpton. he's a vulgar human being. he's divisive and spews hatred. that would go a long way. because no prominent officer holder in the united states, that includes the president and attorney general, and that includes the mayor of new york city should hold counsel, be associated with or be in the company of al sharpton. i think if he did that in a very public way, disavowed any association with al sharpton, i think then the new york police department, led by their union, would be able to put their best foot forward to try to improve relationships. but short of any public disavowing of this race-baiting and race demagogue al sharpton will be very hard to repair the relationship b

so de blasio doesn't get it.r -- he will never understand the brotherhood of law enforcement. he will never be there. he will never be allowed to be there. and he needs to act like a leader and lead the men that know how to do the job. he's not doing that. it's totally appropriate. >> pat mark just mentioned the atmosphere that was in new york city and around the country before these two police officers were executed. you know, you just wrote a very powerful op-ed on your website talking about bill de blasio's words. what strikes me about bill de blasio is he is now sending out commissioner bratton to say it's inappropriate for the officers to turn their backs in protest, but it seems like bill de blasio is perfectly okay with taking sides. he's not liking it so much now being on the side of being protested for the things he said about his son, which warning his son about the racist cops allegedly. i mean you wrote all about that on your website. >> it's been astonishing, katie. i mean, since the very minute that

>> de blasio. >> all right. let's talk about the president as well. de blasio and i think the president of the united states needs to understand that their actions in failing to defend police, and criticizing police, saying african-american young men are having problems with law enforcement, well, right now law enforcement, two officers executed are having problems with the young african-american men. i don't know who's talking about this, but i'm going to talk about it. the two of them have undoubtedly created racial tensions that worsens, not better, the situation for law enforcement. and are police safe in this city? >> jeanine, it's not only the city. it's not only the city. naturally, we're talking about the city tonight. our nation's police have been called into question by the mayor and other legislators and political figures around this country over the twlooft months over two incidents. millions of arrest as year and they're talking about two incidents. they turned this entire country, their entire poli

>> don't know about de blasio.now that the president just created this police task force in the wake of the garner case a few weeks ago. and i know the white house made clear to tell us reporters that the president talked to the head of that task force on sunday and kind of said, we need to talk about the issue of these shootings on saturday in relation to what happened as well. the white house really trying to make sure this is a discussion about how to police and the communities they work with, get along better. not just a discussion about why people don't like police. so, i know they're trying to figure out how to we make the discussion more inclusive of officers and less a discussion of people being angry with the police. >> perry, there has been a lot of anger with the police over the last few months. we've had thousands of people in the streets protesting peacefully, saying they want better policing and then a handful of people doing very damaging and destructive things and saying very damaging and inflammato

de blasio built a history quickly.nt, and eric holder attorney -- top law enforcement officer in the nation, have all carried out on this broadcast we termed a campaign of ignorance, of hate, against law enforcement. and law enforcement officers. all across the country. they have been given free license by a national media that has not responded as watch dogs but more they have acted like lap dogs. >> yeah, lou, these people traffic in division, this is all they have, they are selling you a box of after i popcorn, there is nothing in it, you are waiting for their computer, and you look through there nothing ibut popcorn. what do they do? they traffic in division and hatred, they never get you to vote for them, they get you to vote against the other guy this is how they do it they imminent a strategic tactical defviews little bit ol tool -- political tool, they hate you this is all the left disany more, party of jfk is dead, and buryed that is a tragedy for the country going forward. lou: thank you so much. >> thank you

, hired by de blasio, can be fired by de blasio. i expect that kind of decision from bratton and that kind of talk. but the bottom line is respect's earned. and this mayor has not earned the respect of the men and women in blue and in the city of new york and perhaps the 800,000 state and local police officers around the country. enough is enough. they've accused these police officers in the last four months of heinous acts. and when two police officers are assassinated in that city, he cannot hide from the remarks that he's made. and i don't blame the police officers for being upset. police officers all over this country are upset at politicians that spew rhetoric and then expect law enforcement to quail the riots that they caused. >> chuck, thank you for being here. >> thanks for having me, megyn. >> joining me now, mark hannah, a democratic who worked on the kerry and obama campaigns. in the same way you can't dismiss ferguson and staten island, all the protesters just by saying there's no evidence of racial profiling. whether th

bill de blasio is more peculi pluralistic.eals against him the way he wants to deal things. he wants to reform the way policing works. no doubt having bratton by his side during the crisis and longer term, the mayor cigarette right the city shouldn't be focused on the current tragedy. >> sara eisen, this started a while ago. the battle over stop-and-frisk, you had rudy giuliani, you had mike bloomberg openly criticiz s criticizeing bill de blasio for being anti-cop. doesn't make it easy for the rank-and-file when it comes from leaders they respect. >> from a crisis management perspective this is the defining issue for mayor bill de blasio. it reminds me a little bit of other people who run on progressive campaigns, president obama. look at the corporate world for inmummerable examples. ron johnson came in from apple as a superstar. comes to run j.c. penney. all these brilliant ideas. he'll throw out all the old ideas. bring in the new. guess what? he totally missed the culture and institution and customer of j.c. penney. there

mayor bill de blasio speaks at a luncheon in just a few minutes from now. we'll bring you his remarks live. this is a sensitive moment. tensions are very, very high right now and we just learned a while ago that the mayor visited the homes of the two police officers who were killed, rafael ramos and wenjian liu. mayor de blasio has been the subject of a lot of finger pointing since the officers were gunned down over the weekend. our reporter nick valencia walks us through how it all happened. >> reporter: the shooter's onslaught of terror began just before 6:00 a.m. in baltimore, maryland. ismaaiyl brinsley shot and seriously injured his girlfriend hours before he would kill two new york police officers. one of the last posts he put on social media was this. "i always wanted to be known for doing some right but my past is stalking me and my present is haunting me." the post followed, "i'm putting wings on pigs today. they take one of ours, let's take two of theirs." the posts were flagged by police in baltimore but a message to be on alert in new york was t

de blasio made a mistake.the way he responded to the incident that happened over the bridge, it was not accurate. i don't think it was appropriate. when the two lieutenants got assaulted. he said -- >> during a police protest. >> i think that was a mistake. and he is human. but i think that was provoked. this union has been fighting this mayor since before he became mayor. and this mayor made his whole campaign around fixing the police department. bringing changes to the police department. and people heard him. i think was the one who has separated him from the other candidates. his approach of how he needed to change the police department. voters came out. >> what you feel about the police protests taking place? i mean, the protests against police violence? >> people are not protesting against police. they're not protesting ramos and people who go out there and do their job every day. they're not saying these officers should not be in the streets. people are protesting about policies that a been in this count

i want you to focus on de blasio.his mayor, he's basically a communist, right, helping the sandinistas, giving them care packages, honeymooning in cuba, has he lost control of new york city? >> well, what he could have done at that news conference and what i'd like him to do, we want to unify together, is go on to the news conference and say, i said something, i was wrong. i want my cop -- my son to go to cops. i respect cops. i understand the police department. when i first ran, i ran against stop and frisk. i didn't understand the new york city police department. i now understand. it is the greatest police department -- >> he didn't do that, bo. >> and he ran on this stop and frisk nonsense. >> my turn. >> all right. >> time for me to talk. >> take it easy. we're equals. >> i have to answer your question. i know you don't want to talk about sharpton and others, but you have to look and see who the people in power, in power, you have president obama, who i regard as -- his jeremiah wright is al sharpton. de blasio br

>> de blasio. who's de blasio?s but i know his name. >> he's the mayor. >> okay. >> he seems to be doing his job well. >> i think he's better than previous mayors when it comes to racial issues. >> why did he inject race into the eric garner situation? >> because it is about race. it's entirely about race. >> but eric garner's family member actually said it wasn't about race whatsoever. >> okay. >> my wife works for the nypd. >> was your wife happy that de blasio threw the nypd under the bus? >> the guy was clearly wrong. >> i like the way he brings awareness to the shootings that have been happening. >> if the tea party were out here on the streets shutting down down bridges, would you be okay with that? what do you think de blasio's biggest accomplishments have been so far? >> i'd be hard pressed to say, actually. >> it's not about like the mayor doing his job, it's about us coming together with him to help him do his job. >> when it snowed last year, our roads were the last to be plowed. >> because you're in the

mayor de blasio is rejecting claims he is anti-police as he calls for unity and healing.ctivists to hold off on further protests in the names of eric garner and michael brown until two nypd officers are buried. in a conference with bill bratton, de blasio said he met with the families of ramos and wenjian liu and tried to console them. >> they are in tremendous pain and they are worried deeply. these teenagers no longer have a father because of an assassin. >> de blasio urging people to focus on the families. some will not heed the mayor's call to ususpend protests. cnn's don lemon as the latest. >> reporter: christine, mayor de blasio pushed back at critics who say he contributed to the anti-police atmosphere that got ramos and liu killed. the head of the police union who said de blasio had blood on his hands was wrong and mistaken. mayor also called for a calm and civility and said he respected the right of the 35,000 sworn officers in the nypd to have lots of different opinions. police commissioner bratton supported the mayor on that point saying quote, can you point o

i don't believe for a second that de blasio wanted this, i just think he's incompetent. i think he has -- he doesn't have blood on his hands, he has oatmeal for a spine. >> well, okay. deblaz o de blasio to sharpton, he called for more protests, last week the protests called for dead cops. what happens a couple of days after they call for dead cops? we have two more dead cops. am i ---is it unfair for me to make the leap that al sharpton calls for more protests, protests turn out to be violent, violent protests kill cops. >> we do know that he was somewhat deranged, he had been institutionalized before. and he was a murder. was this the straw that broke the camel's back that encouraged him to do things that he was thinking about doing already? i don't think we know enough about that. i would be careful on that. i do find it amazing that we every day are talking about al sharpton, as if he runs race relations in america. it was actually really incredible. his statement right after the cops were killed, statement was so self-serving, you got it there? >> let's take a liste

mayor de blasio is the big bird. hardest, but he's being directed by de blasio. no one should say bill bratton is doing a bad job. he's just directed by an idiot mayor. and i'm upset and angry. i didn't sleep thinking about the poor officers in the '70s and their families. i saw guys die like that back then. and i'm calling it out, he went to cuba when he was not supposed to in 1994 with his wife. he should go back to cuba to live with his wife because new york doesn't want him. new york is a great city with a great police department and commissioner, time is now for new york to speak. i am really upset about this. >> so how do you, since you have been there in a situation like this, let's say you are a current new york city police officer. how are you feeling now about just going to work every day? >> i talk to them every time i go to street, i hug cops out there. our great mayor rudy giuliani was dead-on with the 92% of black on black crime. i am using this because i'm not afraid, when you have a mayor who says i h

the cops are conservative, and de blasio and obama are not conservative. at some point it is just as simple as that. and that's fine. this is america. we can agree to disagree. but the idea that they try to delegitimize first the president and de blasio, they're saying he only got so many votes. more than bloomberg ever got, by the way. he is our mayor, and there's a certain amount of dignity and respect that they owe the mayor just for, that for nothing else. but especially in this time when we're dealing with officers who are killed. >> do you think it was okay for him to reference his son when he talked about police officers after the officer involved in the garner case was not indicted? >> i'm not a father. i've got to leave that one to him. i don't know. but it doesn't seem often we criticize politicians for talking about their children. >> and i'll tell you as a father you care in a way that's very deep and very profound. as a politician, as a political leader, perfectly appropriate for him to try to connect with people. and there's nothing wrong wit

mayor de blasio is so it-to-speak. should he show?left with no choice but to jump as his house goes up in flames. >> jump. come down with your momma right here. your momma said do it. come on. >> oh my god. >> there he came. you are going to hear from the man who shot this video. tell you how the little boy is doing this morning. >> and talk about a speedy delivery. you have heard this story about a woman giving birth on a train? hear from the hero officers who helped bring that baby into the world. mornings are better with friends. good morning this is fabio and you are watching "fox & friends." >> fabio? >> i can't believe it's not butter. >> i don't care what you say, fabio, you look amazing. leeland and connell nice to have you on the coach. >> comfy. >> very nice, i like it. >> we decorated just for you. >> we may never leave. >> you are stuck with us now. >> that's all right. everybody at home you will get to know leland and connell little bit later in the show. stay tuned for that. >> that will keep them. >> people right now ar

has some advice for current mayor bill de blasio. some think de blasio disrespected law enforcement during anti-police protests. hundreds of police officers turned their backs on de blasio as he spoke at a new york police officer's funeral yesterday. giuliani says de blasio should apologize. however. new york city police commissioner william bratton says the officers' behavior was inappropriate. bratton also said de blasio is supportive of the police department. he says the mayor has provided addtional officer safety enhancements. training. equipment. and technology. today is a 'spare the air day'. air quality officials say bay area residents cannot burn wood tonight. light winds this weekend are responsible for the poor air quality. this is the fifth spare the air day of the season. homes that don't have heaters. but a fireplace or wood stove. are exempt. the first violation is one hundred dollars. but the second jumps up to five hundred. cred reporter>>: those low clouds are forecasted to expand as we get to the morning and perhaps

so did the new york city mayor bill de blasio. at the same time all three came under fire this weekend from critics who accused them in one way or another of creating a climate that put cops in jeopardy and ultimately cost two of their lives. today mayor de blasio took sharp issue with that notion and with reporters who he believes have been hyping the idea that he and his police force are at odds. >> i maerd from nypd officers and leaders who said they saw peaceful protest, respectful protest. what you managed to do is pull up the few who do not represent the majority, who are saying unacceptable things, who shouldn't be saying those things. and they -- some who actually physically attack police officers, which i've said is absolutely unacceptable. we will prosecute them to the fullness. >> we'll talk more about that shortly-b all that's been said by each side in what's become a very, very painful war of words. first the very latest on how we got here. cnn's martin savidge reports. >> reporter: surveillance video shows suspected

bill de blasio as i said is incompetent. he was elected in an election in new york city that few people voted. he was a machine politician. and he is an antipolice individual now he is in trouble. now he is trying to backtrack. he has been antipolice his whole career. who is his best friend? al sharpton. a racial provoke anti-individual. he de blasio is proud that he told his teenage son that he may face quote dangers when intracketting with the nypd. what type of responsible father tells that to his son? then after witnessing because it's on videotape. two police lieutenants get beaten by a mob. the mayor of new york city says it was an alleged beating. that insulted every single -- every officer, all 35,000 nypd who were insulted, alleged you saw it with your own eyes, you pinhead. once he said that, that was the end. he lost the police department and then when he went to the hospital over the weekend with a two police officers are being treats police officers turned their backs on bill de blasio on the mayor of new york c

mayor de blasio, this started from his campaign originally. no doubt he is against police officers and they feel that. so they have to get together at some point. >> edward mullens, he's the sergeant's president and he wrote a hand-written message to the mayor saying the blood of these two officers is clearly on your hands, between that, the officers turning their backs on the mayor, where do they start to mend that relationship? >> they're going to have to start mebding. the backs turning their backs is almost the fact that de blasio turned his back on the officers. when this was happening he was for the other side and the people who were demonstrating and all that. he was for them. and saying the alleged attack, when it was visible these people attacked two new york city lieutenants and hurt them. >> on the brooklyn bridge. >> on the brooklyn bridge. using all those terms, it gets to this. the officers were going to sign a sheet not to come to my funeral. how serious is something like that? how much hatred is there? you have to bring two sid

i'm not a fan of de blasio. i would call myself an opponent. his speech to the police academy a day or so ago when he spoke about the quality of the new york city police department meeting with five unions and pbc head lynch is a step in the right direction. i'd be the first to criticize him. we're better seek reconciliation than pointing fingers. lou: that's a fine expression but i think we do little by pack is ling over what is absolutely empirically a division and divide between the mayor and police department and one of his making words without reference to recanting his previous angry hostile, anti-police rhetoric is meaningless, and certainly even that would be meaningless without actions. what can this mayor do? you've advised presidents, you've advised mayors. what can he do to end the nonsense? >> i think what he did today makes good sense. i certainly agree with pat lynch that actions matter, but if you praise the police and you seek reconciliation and to get the police to do their job i think that's a very, very important step, and i

you really think obama and de blasio hate the police?ll, i think they use them as pawns to make political points, and i think that's probably even worse. >> the people making political points are the right blaming de blasio, blaming obama -- >> were you saying this when the left was blaming save rah pay -- sarah palin for the gabby giffords -- >> you should tune in every time i'm on. >> when you're talking about in this kind of direct involvement, meeting with the protesters and telling them to stay the course as obama did even as things had gotten violent, we've got a problem. jon: all right. we're going to have to leave it there. tammy bruce, alan colmes, thank you both. >> thank you. heather: forget the latest tech gadgets why in one country all they want for christmas is lottery tickets? >>> plus, arizona governor jan brewer vowing a legal fight after a federal court rules some illegal immigrants will be allowed to apply for driver's licenses. my credit score for free, right? and then you're gonna ask me for my credit card so you can

police turned their backs on mayor bill de blasio. the head of the police union criticized the mayor's support of demonstrators who took to the streets to protest a grand jury's decision not to indict a new york officer in connection with the death of eric garner, who was allegedly put in a chokehold while resisting arrest. >> we tried to warn, it must not go on, it cannot be tolerated. that's blood on the hands, on the steps of city hall, in the office of the mayor. >> reporter: the mayor attempting to deflect any blame denounced violence. >> we need to stop any -- the attack on these two officers, the assassination of these two officers was an attack on the city of new york as a whole, on every one of us, on our values, on our democracy, we can cannot tolerate these attacks, anybody with the ability to -- >> meanwhile the crime scene, where the two officers died has now been transformed into a memorial. local, state and federal law enforcement came throughout the day to the pay their respects. so too did members of the public, inclu

new york city mayor bill de blasio condemned the shootings. >> this was an assassination. these officers were shot execution style, particularly despicable act which goes at the very heart of our society and our democracy when a police officer is murdered, it tears at the foundation of our society. us.s an attack on all of it is an attack on everything we hold dear. >> criminal records show brinsley had a troubled history with the law, with multiple arrests and at least two years behind bars. his family says he had mental issues, including a reported suicide attempt a year ago. the officers' double-killing was condemned by the families of unarmed african-americans recently killed by police and the protest groups that have sprung up in response. on sunday, eric garner's mother gwen carr, and his widow, esaw gardner, said the killings have no connection to their quest for justice. >> we are going in peace. and anyone who is standing with us, we want you to not use eric garner's name for violence, because we're not about that. these two police officers lost senselessly. our c

this morning we've been talking about the history of mayor bill de blasio and the nypd. this have you had yo where they turned their back on him as he came to the hospital where the two officers who had been ambushed in brooklyn were being treated. so this is a long history and we wanted to unvit our next guest to talk about how this works. he not only knows what it's like to lead a police forks he's also been a mayor. lee brown is former mayor and police chief of houston and written a book titled "policing in the 21st century, community policing." nice to see you. so this battle between new york police and city hall certainly nothing new. in 1992 there was an all riot bit police against mayor denkins. you had served as police commissioner before that happened. during your time, what can you recall about that were relations between the police and the mayor strained then as well? >> the issue there was brewing while i was there, that was the creation of a civilian review board to receive and investigate complaints against police officers. the plirz did not endorse that co

and yet this constant, constant talk by de blasio about how blacks separated from cops. cops were an occupying army. going against blacks. now for the last four months or five months. ever since august with the garner and brown cases this incessant criticism of the police bringing in al sharpton a known con man putting him in a position where he is he in effect trying to set policy for the nypd. there is no doubt mayor de blasio has set this climate in motion. >> what should be done about it going forward certainly he could have played a pivotal role by showing some leadership and saying let's stop these presses, let's come together and talk about it. instead of sort of fueling the fire and the flames here. what do we do now to get this city under control? what would you tell the mayor? >> well, the mayor has made a small step forward, you know, calling for these demonstrations to be put off until after the funerals are over. now, i don't see a need for the demonstrations in the first place. but, at least to me, it's a positive step that he has called for moratorium on t

what is mayor de blasio to do? how does he ride that ray or-thin line. >> you listen to the president, to our attorney general, you listen to our mayor but when the police benevolent association hears talk like this automatically it's anti-police. and it is not. you raised the question of raise and i'm glad that that you did. if i raise it, i'm race baiting. this is an issue that has to be dealt with and the biggest problem we have -- >> i am a white canadian immigrant. if i raise the question of race i hear -- you should see my twitter account if i even asked the questions. we're dammed if we do, black or white, dammed if we don't. and this divide is getting deeper. >> well, i'll tell you, the deafening silence with our religious leaders with the exexception of cardinal dolan, i think this is the time where we especially during the christmas season that if we have a problem and god knows we have a major problem, instead of talking about who the blood is on their hands and instead of just being dramatic and working
