bret: agree with that?> we need to put politics aside and that is what democrats agreed with donald trump on paid sick leave and free coronavirus testing so all those things have been included in our package. we bump it up a little more. when you have a democratic house republican senate, compromises the name of the game. the president has to accept we are fighting for people who will be potentially unemployed, he has to accept the we will push on doctor and nurse protection but when you look at the best healthcare system in the world, south korea, south korea has 10,000 tests per day. they have been able to provide tests to everyone who want sitting here people are scrambling. almost seems like the wealthy and powerful you are the more able you are to access a test. but the river road you've got is going to be more difficult to access healthcare. that is exactly the recipe for disaster in a pandemic. bret: anthony fauci testified that there is failing on the testing. a few months ago you tweeted out mike p

i want to bring in bret baier now host of "special report."ret, gavin to you, the president spoke last night again from the oval office with the visiting leadership from ireland. we heard from joe biden and we just heard from bernie sanders politically where are we stacking this up at the moment, bret? >> bret: listen, i think all sides are saying they want to take politics out of this and trying to get the country to move forward as all of these things are changing and all americans are going to be feeling it. however, politics, bill, as you know is in the background and sometimes the foreground of all of this in the middle of an election year. listen, the president's speech last night in the oval office while supporters are saying it had the right tone and the right delivery, it did have some biggerrers, big mistakes three of them really. and it did open the door to his critics to paint themselves as giving speeches that were better in substance as far as what needs to happen in the country. the big mistakes obviously were not detailed about

anchor of "special report" bret baier joins me now. bret, what do you think? wall street liked it. >> bret: definitely, charles. listen, the market jumped 900 points since the beginning of this rose garden news conference and it was just really impressive to seat president roll out with all of those ceos together in this kind of all together mentality, the messaging being that our together beat this coronavirus. impressive to see companies that compete against each other to come out and say we are doing this for the good of the country. now, how that rolls out and what it looks like clearly the market saw some comfort as you noted. the getting it around the country is challenging. i also think it's really comforting that dr. anthony fauci, tony fauci just has this personality that he has now been an authentic arbiter of straight talk when it comes he doesn't sugar point it straight to the point. all this effort on that team are exhibiting those same messaging points. >> charles: i told someone earlier today. i'm chalking it up. is he going to be "time's" man o

tucker, back to you. >> tucker: bret and martha, thank you very much for that. tonight it cld be bernie sanders last stand as of tomorrow morning, half of the delegates in the democratic race will have been awarded. if sandra suffers a lopsided defeat in the next few hours, his path to the nomination will essentially disappear. if that happens, millions of bernie supporters will wake up in the morning outraged and disappointed. they will believe sanders has the nomination stolen from him by a ruthless democratic establishment fearful of change. to some extent, they will be right. there is another important reason bernie sanders appears to be losing tonight. he is weak. sanders is a socialist bomb thrower who trades with fidel castro but mostly talk in the end. underneath it all bernie sanders may be the lamest revolutionary ever. twice in a row, sanders has tried to win the democratic presidential election. twice in a row they rigged the game against him. in 2016, leaked email shows democratic officials openly moving for hillary clinton, his opponent. the primar

>> juan: i don't know about bret baier's suit. i like the tide.hat do you guys expect tonight and what is it like? >> it is beautiful. we are in an amazing place, beautiful architecture with the court house next door. we are excited. we have a great crowd coming in this evening and we are looking for an interesting exchange of ideas. we see president trump, obviously, at a lot of rallies but this is a smaller crowd, more intimate and he will get to interact with the questioners which i think will be terrific. >> pennsylvania is a state employee, swing state and it is scranton. joe biden's home, and probably a reason that the trump campaign chose this venue for this particular town hall. >> juan: clearly, there is a lot of attention to joe biden, especially after today's news with elizabeth warren getting out. do you think the president will get into joe biden, ukraine, hunter biden? >> i think so, if i had a crystal ball of questions. either one, i think there is a chance we can go down some of those roads. but listen, the big part of this is, vot

>> i saw a candidate and i think he was doing it with you and bret. every time he would get ready to wind up into a big the corporated media stooges, not you, i like you, you are okay. you guys are fine. so it's -- he is leading a revolution and can you see how the imprint. is he sort of like the berry barry goldwater for the democratic shro*erss. leading people in a movement and these people are going to be with him and alexandria ocasio-cortez in the future. how do you take that and turn it into a democratic nomination and that's what he is betwixt and between. that's why we sort of -- he was doing a little bit of crawfishing tonight. >> martha: here is he in the beginning we asked him how he would handle coronavirus. i go back to if you were in the oval office today because i felt like. so answers got sort of generalized but watch this. >> sadly, we have an administration in washington that has shown the world that it does not believe in science. its attitude toward climate change, which it thinks is a hoax is telling the whole world how do we trus

new york democratic woman alexandra causey cortez spoke with bret and much more earlier tonight. >> thesional response, much debate on capitol hill about the way forward for joining us this evening, new york democratic congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez. what's your concern, what do you think washington will do? >> we are seeing right now a lot of dramatic developers this week in response to the coronavirus, both with our public health and in our economic response. what we need to do is act quickly and not just concentrate on solutions for wall street, but we need to provide relief for working americans, americans who are living off of tips, who are getting laid off, who ships are being canceled all of a sudden, and we need to make sure that we act very quickly beer that's why i think it's imperative that we pass the bill that's been presented today, which includes paid sick leave, which includes extended unemployment benefits, and also making sure we are taking action to protect doctors and nurses and hospital workers on the front line. >> there've been negotiations between speaker

bret: will recap what the government was taking. the fed was in the way why did they do this past week? so the federal reserve's been filling out all the stops. we have interest rates at zero. we have quantity that's easing happening but we also the fed during other measures such as encouraging bank to use the discount window that allows short-term financings that the banks can provide liquidity to their customers. we also have the fed watching commercial paper lines. again, this is actually backstopping to make sure businesses they're going to have problems meeting payroll and things like that can get the short-term financing that they need. and then also, such as our federal reserve we have coordination against the global central bank. most recently what they did is they tried to ease access to the dollar. the daughter has a $10 been on a chair and for companies that don't have access could exacerbate the issue were incurred. jack: they're not giving away money, they're just injecting money in the to the system at a time when vari

good thing we do this for a living. >> bret: we are political nerds. >> shannon: we embrace it. thank you for staying late with us. a senator sanders looking for a strong performance in colorado but he got one -- there's a little bit of a cliffhanger, let's get out to explain in denver. >> we are watching the results come in from the colorado secretary of state's office, we get a really good idea of how all of the candidates are faring state wide but it's the party that determines the allocation of delegates and the colorado democratic party has decided it will not begin that process until tomorrow morning. they are 67 delegates available. 23 will come from a statewide vote, 44 are determined by congressional districts, candidates -- as of right now there are four who meet the viability and as we rate the congressional district results, sanders is winning colorado by a good clip but unless there's some sort of major change overnight, they will all share in a victory. >> i think it goes to show how much we've seen in colorado. >> this was a mail in ballots primary, hundreds of th
