Accusing russia of helping north korea evade sanctions. The president sharply criticizing russia saying its goaft is making up for chinas decision to restrict oil and coal to the rogue regime. Well discuss the Trump Administrations efforts to rein in russia and north korea the fight to avoid a Government Shutdown. Republican leadership is pushing a shortterm spending bill to fund the government for one more month but theres opposition on. Fox news chief Congressional Correspondent mike e man nal is on capitol hill with the latest. Reporter the clock is becoming a factor as the government is due to run out of money late night friday night. The offer on the table is a short term continuing resolution to keep the government up and running through february 16th. It would extend the Childrens Health care program for six years, delay some obama care taxes. Some concerns are that this would be the fourth the impact g resolution has on the military. Democrats want a deal for socalled dreamers now and theyre starting the blame game. Real deadlines are occurring this friday. And the real deadlines that occur this friday are our men and women in uniform and Childrens Health insurance in many states that will run out of money. If god forbid theres a shutdown, it will fall on the majority leaders shoulders and the president s shoulder. We know what the president said. He want a shutdown. Reporter but saying defense funding is being held hostage at a critical time. They cant train for whats coming. They can only do the training for whats been. It hurts the military every single day. Reporter there is an effort by house conservatives to do something to boost source funding now. In the end it will be hard for the democrats oppose this package because of the Childrens Health insurance extension. David. David our first guest is a member of the Freedom Caucus who say that the republicans dont have the votes for the current stopgap measure. Joining me ron desantis, a member of several committees and he is now also a governor. Congratulations for your candidacy. Let me talk about i mean, schumer was straight out. He said its going to fall on republicans shoulders. Heres what representative slaughter just said, and im quoting, if there is a shutdown, our fingerprints arent on it. I mean this is like a criminal saying im just about to commit a crime but ive shaved off my fingerprints so you wont be able to track me town. Down. Youre right. Heres the thing. Weve passed bills to we did that months ago. The senate is dysfunction nal. Theyre not able to do the task of being in the congress. We are where we are. I think it would be absolutely hazardous for democrats to block funding our troops, for our military equipment simply because theyre demanding benefits for Illegal Immigrants. It just shows you that they care more about Illegal Immigrants than they do about our american military. I think we should call their bluff. I think a lot will end up folding. But if they dont and you have Chuck Schumer filibustering for the military because hes worried about more benefits for the Illegal Immigrants, i think that would blow up in their face. David i dont know what they want in their heart of hearts. But i do know one thing. I dont know what they feel about daca or a budget deal or anything. But i know that above Everything Else what they care about is november 2018. They want to retake the house. That is their firm goal and they think if they had come to any kind of agreement with this president they wont be able to do it. They are convinced the only way to retake the house is to completely separate themselves and isolate in their eyes the president of the United States. Thats why there wont be any deal in my mind. Am i right or wrong . I think youre reading it right. I think schumer and pelosi decided, look, the energy in our base, the far left, they dont want trump. They want us to resist trump. Thats the easiest route for us to agai gin up the base to retae house. I think its an interesting theory but ultimately it wont work. Look whats going on. You actually see results versus their rhetoric. Nancy pelosi two months ago were saying that our tax bill was amageddon. It was the worst thing ever. Whats happening. You have bonuses being shelled out, money coming back, you have Companies Moving here. You have apple going to invest an ungodly sum of money into the United States. And so voters are going to be in a position where theyre going to see that. The democrats have said no no no. They said all of these bad things were going to happen and yet the economy is strong, were much better internationally than we were when the president took office. So i think theyre going to do what theyre going to do but its not going to be effective. David they feel theyre protected and to a certain extept they are by the overwhelming 95 of the press corps who will be their echo chamber. Rush limbaugh think its the other way around that the democrats are the echo chamber of the media. However it works, they feel like they have that as a second front to protect the flank. As we saw yesterday, i think the president and the president s staff is on to that. And what the president did last tuesday by opening up the room to the cameras for that meeting on immigration, which we saw a very reasonable man trying to come to a deal. Yesterday we had a very reasonable doctor come on the scene, bipartisan doctor, he had worked with democratic and republican president s in the past saying this man is healthy and completely insane. You saw the media go insane by that suggestion and starting asking about whether he was an alcoholic or a drug addict or whether he was obese, et cetera. So the public is beginning to see, i think, that all of these complaints about trump being at the root of all of the evil in the world is nonsense. And they remember eight years of barack obama where that same White House Press corps which berated that doctor, which is always yelling about trump, they were basically the palace guard for barack obama. They protected him. They did not investigate key things. They did not hold him accountable. That is the role that they had. And so when people look at how low esteem the Washington Press corps has on our country, its because people see they blaifd one way with obama and the other way with trump. But youre right. The difference is that if schumer forces a shutdown, trump controls the executive branch. Hes not going to shut down the world war ii memorial. He can shake the veterans hands when he goes out there. The president has the good hand here. David it was within president obamas interest to slow up things that people cared about in the government, which he did, sometimes going out of his way to do that and its not in President Trumps interest. Quickly on the Mueller Probe and whats happening there. Is there any interest and i have asked a lot of people this in congress on the part of the mueller team to investigate either fusion gps, the whole trump dossier mess or the iranian one deal or anything other than still trying to find this mysterious collusion between trump and the russians . Theres no indication of that. I mean you look at all of the attorneys that they have there. A lot of them are hostile to President Trump. I dont see them wanting to go and basically discredit their own socalled collusion investigation. Because when you start doing fusion gps or you start looking at that, you see all of these questions about what was going on. And it doesnt look good and it really calls into question the legitimacy of the collusion investigation from day one. In uranium one theyre not doing that. We pushed that in the congress. Were still pushing it. We did get doj brought a few indictments recently and i think youre going to see more from that. I know from what were doing, theres more to come. David i was disappointed to hear that you might be leaving the halls of congress but probably the people of florida will be happy that youre running. Do you get the endorsement of rick scott . Expwhr i hop i hope so. Hes done a great job. But im going to be begging people like you to buy property. Were going to get a lot of new yorkers to come down. David this winter in particular my wife is more interested in florida than ever before but my job is here in new york. Thank you for coming. I appreciate you being here. Were coming right back with a lot more. Please stay with us. The white house demands the dems put America First ahead of their proam necessity agenda. Democrats need to decide to come here and do their jobs and theyre going to govern and put our National Security ahead of their own personal political agendas or theyre not.

Both members of the grand Canyon Senate delegation blasting President Trump using inflammatory language. Retiring senator jeff flake comparing the commander in chief to a murderous totalitarian dictator. Our own president uses words infamously spoken by Joseph Stalin to describe his enemies. It bares noting that so fraught with malice that the key forbeads its use. Were not in a fake news era as bashar assad says. Were in an era in which the authoritarian impulse is reasserting itself to challenge free people and free societies everywhere. David senator john mccain seemingly echoing those remarks criticizing the president s criticism of the National Left wing media in an oped in the Washington Post writing, quote, these efforts are being closely watched by foreign leaders who are already using his words as cover as they silence and shutter one of the key pillars. Joining me, ronna mcdonnell. We dont have to go far to find out what you think about all of this. You had a tweet out saying, quote, senator flake turn on the news. Its wall to wall with biased coverage against potus. He has ever right to push back comparing the leader of the free world to murderous dictators is absurd. Youve gone too far. He wasnt reading your tweets. I think we should be talking about Chuck Schumer and nancy pelosi and the dang they would do this the country if they took the reign reins of the senate a. The media is thriving. Its alive and well in this country. The president supports free speech even when its a media p. Comparing him as a dictator is going too far. David he said the truth itself is under assault, his words, truth is under assault. And led me to wonder where was he during the Obama Administration and we put together politifact, leaning to the left, put together a long list, over 50 examples of where president obama lied about everything from obamacare in which he keep your doctor, wont add a dime to the receive pit. He lied about the deficit. Called isis the jv team. On and on. Where is the fair and balanced part of senator flakes speech . Well, and going boo back to president obama, look at benghazi. There were so many instances that covered for coverage and scrutiny. Tip the scales in favor of President Trump. Lets be fair and balanced. But to say that this president doesnt revere free speech or our constitution is patently false. We have a media that spends 90 of their coverage negatively on this president and thats totally out of balance to where our country is today. Look at the unemployment at a 17 year low, Consumer Confidence at a 16year high. Look at the military getting their first raise in over a decade. Isis is on the run. I can list thing after thing after thing as to how our economy is doing, how our country is doing better under this presidency. But were not hearing it day to day in the news. And i hear it all of the time when i travel. People come to me saying why dont they report fairly on this president. Thats the discussion we should be having today. David how many papers are going to focus on the 300point gain on the dow. I have to correct something that flake said hes talking about Everything Else putting out lies. He talked about President Trump using laws and regulations to stifle the truth. Do you have any idea what he was talking about . When has President Trump ever used a law to try to stifle the truth . I am not familiar with any instance of that. What i do know is that this president is cutting 22 regulations for every one thats being created and it has unleashed our economic revival. Were just going to continue to do that. This is a president who is doing things and delivering for the american people. People in my home state of michigan who were suffering, left behind by the washington elite. And he came saying, hes deliveg every single day. Im so thrilled with whats happened in this first year. And i only am more excited about whats more to come. David ronna, i got to ask you one question about your uncle, mitt romney. You guys dont discuss your plans with each other, which is a great idea to keep family peace. But if your uncle does run for the senate in utah and he does win. Youre head of the rn clrks. Will you give him particularly in regard to how he talks about President Trump . If he asks for advice ill give him advice. But my advice is focus on the democrats. Our country suffered under a democratic leadership. We saw it under barack obama and Chuck Schumer. Were coming up under a hotly contested midterm and we need to keep unified and keep our eyes on the american people. Every day im out there raising money and putting a ground game in place to keep our majorities in the midterms. Thats what every republican should be focused on, along with touting the great accomplishments weve made this first year under President Trump. David you have been very successful at raising money. Democrats have not been as successful. Ronna mcdaniel, great to see you 247 than be sure to vote in tonights poll.

Spy network in china. 53yearold jerry lee arrested on chargeses of stealing top secret information which he retained years after leaving the agency. Doug mckelway has our report. It was here on Kennedy Airport on monday that the retired cia agent was arrested after a flight from hong kong. He is charged with unauthorized possession of classified documents.

Some of them were executed publicly. As early as 2012li had come under u. S. Investigation. He was flying to ho hong kong to virginia and during a threeday layover fbi gained access to his hotel room and photographed his address book. Containing addresses of cia facilities.

A november report to Congress Found that Chinese State media are not required to register as foreign agents even though many of its represents are suspected spies.

Well President Trump today accusing russia of violating International Sanctions against north korea. The president telling routers, the kim va yeem is closer to full Nuclear Capability ever day and that the kremlin continues to see north korea supplies undercutting a chinese effort to restrict oil and cole delivery to the nation the department of justice highlighting americas dire need for immigration reform. Ed 0 callahan telling reporters our immigration system is filled with loopholes that threaten National Security on a daily basis. I know that Transnational Criminal Organizations and other individuals and entities that wish to harm the United States undoubtedly seek to exploit weaknesses in our immigration system but it benefits them in accomplishing their unlawful schemes. President trumps immigration policy is designed to serve the interest of National Security. David joining me, sebastian gorka. Dr. Gorka, these were extraordinarily sobering words. I think he made the point very clearly without exaggerating, just laying out the figures. But some in the media still didnt get it. There was one reporter who asked a question saying, should we really be concerned if terrorists are here in the United States even though they commit their terrorism in places like syria . In other words its okay to have them roaming around the u. S. As long as they dont do terrorism here. That press conference was very impressive, david. And its just a reality check for all americans. The reality is that we face a global threat. I like the term that comes out of the director of National Intelligences office which is a global ge its not if somebody does something bad 8,000 miles away or whether they do it here. Its one ideology. Whether youre beheading an american citizen in syria or blowing up a Pressure Cooker in boston, its the same enemy. David and what these people in the press corps frankly what weve seen in the past week, what happened a week ago when the president opened his cameras to the immigration discussion, quite open and reasonable. Then health, very reasonable. But you saw the press reacting to these events with his stair ya. Hysteria. I think americans are beginning to realize that the antitrump criticism were receiving is based on a thin read indeed. Its beyond that, i think, david. I think yesterday, anybody who watched that press conference with the vice admiral may have thought they were watching an sn snl this saturday. People are supposed to be white house correspondents asking a vice admiral what is the president s waist size. Does he still get two scoops and does he have dentures. Thats a skit. This isnt journalism. This is fake news. David and then you have the case of senator flake. You know whereby he, hes a ses senator. Done some good over the years hs antitrump train to the point where hes comparing him to a man who killed 40 million russians. I mean this is beyond the pale, siis it not . Its shameful. Senator flake is an embarrassment to congress and our great nation. And on behalf of my dead parents and all people like them who actually lived under stalin east regimes, my father was arrested and tortured as a young anticommunist. We demand an apology from this embarrassment of a politician. Remember, this is an individual who allegedly has an r after his name who has spoken glowingly about the dictator as a pragmatist and likewise praised the dictatorship in cuba. This man is an embarrassment to all good and wholesome. David there were two senators in the chamber when he was talking. But interestingly hes getting as much flack from the left. If he was hoping to pick up support from msnbc, or people on the left, i dont know if hes going to get it. They were saying hes a hypocrite because in the past hes supported trump. I dont know to whom he is speaking right now. I think hes speaking to his ego. He is irrelevant vant. He doesnt want to hang up his spurs. Shes trying to remain relevant in the most despicable way possible and hes delightful to see him receive the slings and arrows from both sides because he deserves it. David finally the chinese spy story, an interesting story in its own right. But the chinese spy, if one is to believe the governments case against him was arrested for among other things, keeping top secrets on his personal computer. Does that remind you of anybody . Yes. This will be fascinating to watch. If this individual and remember, this is one of the few areas of federal law where intent is irrelevant. If you merely mishandle classified information you have committed a felony. If this person is prosecuted of a felony, then perhaps its time to very robustly revisit hillarys servergate scandal. Sebastian gorka, a pleasure to have you on. Thank you for being here. Thank you. David be sure to vote in tonights poll, do you believe that senator jeff flakes trump bashing speech to an empty Senate Chamber, two people were there, shows he lacks a firm grasp on both history and his own political irrelevance .

David steve bannon reaching a deal to speak with the special counsel in the russia witch hunt investigation, avoiding a grand jury. This after the ousted white house strategist refused to answer questions from the House Intel Committee yesterday. Fox news chief intelligence correspondent katherine has our report. David, the agreement allows bannon to avoid the grand jury and take prosecutors from prosecutors. Hes expected on capitol hill for a second day of testimony after the administration told him not to answer questions about the transition or his time at the white house. Press secretary sara sanders confirmed today that bannons lawyer was on the phone with the white house about the questions. Sanders said it was not out of the ordinary. Its not isolated to this incident. Executive privilege is something that goes by decades because its something that needs to be protected, whether its during this one 20 years from now. We want to make sure that we follow the process and the precedent and thats all thats taking place. Yesterdays 12hour session escalated to the point that bannon was issued a subpoena on the spot. And told lawmakers to work out the impasse with the white house the senior democrat tonight cried foul. We cannot allow that to become the routine. To allow witnesses to decide when and where theyre willing to answer questions. Democrats want answers abouts son, soninlaw and former Campaign Chairman and os and why bannon called it treasonist. Republicans are equally frustrated. Keep many mind the president and some of his supporters Want Congress to hurry up and conclude these investigations. So do i. The best want to do that is to instruct the witnesses to answer our questions instead of going through executive privilege. Corey lewandowski was in front of the same committee today and he promised null cooperation. Former fbi director james comeys chief of staff is scheduled to appear on capitol hill tomorrow. He was copied on the may 2016 draft statement recommending against criminal charges in the clinton email case. David. David kat tom dupree, former Deputy Assistant attorney jern under george w. Bush. We could get in the weeds of what executive privilege is. I dont want to do that. Why does anyone care what steve bannon says . Even if hes i mean at the very least hes a blow hard. At worst hes a liar. We know that from how hes contradicted himself in regard to how he feels about donald trump. Why do we care . David, i think what the congress is interested in finding out all of these allegations that bannon has made about the Money Laundering and the russians meeting at trump tower and whether they were brought up to see donald trump. I think what Congress Wants to know is there any truth to this. Is there any evidence you have to support these allegations. Because if there is evidence, wed like to see it. If theres not evidence, we would like to know that. So we can confirm that you were just blowing smoke when you made these claims. So i think thats what the committee is very interested in getting and thats why they were so frustrated when they couldnt get answers from steve bannon. David i just think particularly if youre a prosecutor because of course mueller is trying to get him to talk as well and he may have success there. But you want a witness you can rely on. That is not a description of steve bannon. Well, that is for sure. You know, in yo if you make stat to the author and when pressed on it say well there wasnt any truth to that, i was making all of that up, that is not going to enhance your credibility as a witness. But at the same time i think mueller and the congressional investigators want to get to the bottom of it. If bannon is not a credible witness, so be it. But lets find that out now and then figure out what to do with the story, whether to credit it or discard it. David im less certain that mre bottom of it instead of trying to pin something on somebody. I mean the fact is that if mueller is so interested in talking to bannon, i think it says a lot about his interest in getting to the truth and maybe even his desperation in not being able to pin anything so far directly on trump. Well, if youre bob mueller, you read fire and fury probably the day it came out or maybe the day before. And in that bannon provided a road map of sorts as to what you would want to question him about. He claimed to be a part of conversations, claimed to have knowledge about people during the campaign and the transition and the administration did, why they did those things. And at the end of the day this may get dispelled as nonsense. But if youre bob mueller you have basically an outline of the questions youre going to ask him when you have him in your Office Meeting with federal agents. For whatever thats worth. David let me switch gears to sanctuary cities. You have the possibility that they could start arresting people who were complicit in setting up their towns as a sanctuary city. Maybe even arrested ring governors who set up their states as sanctuary states. Where do we go from here . Are we going to see arrests of mayors and governors. My prediction is no. Pe all can recognize theres a major problem here where you have a constant con flicks. And it goes back to the Prior Administration between federal enforcement efforts and a lot of local officials, because they disagree with the federal enforcement policy dont want to seem complicit. I dont think its going away anytime soon. It seems to me that the solution is rather than trying to lock up local officials, you have to try to push for compromise. Weve seen this Administration Try to say, well, if youve not going to cooperate with us on immigration policy were going to withhold federal grant money. They may or may not be legally enforceable. But what the administration is doing is using whatever tools at their dissuppose l to turn up the heat on the local officials saying look, we need you to cooperate and if you dont, there will be consequences. Is plos cushion is right approach . I dont think theyre going to get headway in the kowrpts but i think thats what the administration is trying to do. David but i tell you, when people get away with murder, which is what is happening in America Today because of these problems with the sanctuary cities, something has got to happen.

David in our online poll we asked you do you believe yesterdays press briefing on the president S Mental Health only calls into question the Mental Fitness of the media and 96 of you said yes. Joining me, rachel camposduffy and mark simone. Fake news awards. So far no word from his tweet site. Let me list four fake news stories that had to be retracted. Brian ross reporting that trump directed mike flynn to make contact with russians during the campaign. An inaccurate photo of the trump rally, cnn reports that donald trump received advance notice of a Wikileaks Dump and that mueller subpoenaed trumps bank records. I have been to the rallies where trump says to the media, you wont turn the cameras on the crowd to show how many people were here. This picture was taken before they let the crowds in. When in fact there were people outside of the areason a trying to get into trumps rally. Im glad trump called for him to be fired when he forced that apology later. David i told you i have four one said you have a dozen. When it comes to fake news, the russia story, the gone with the wind of fake news. Rain many maddow would be the merrill stream. Lester thoalt takes real news and makes it fake news. He said macys just closed 100 stores. He proved it. He said macys just closed hundreds of stores with sears is closing hundreds of stores. David that wasnt a side bar. This is people switching to online shopping, employment is up, shopping is up. David lets talk about jeff flake. These remarks, i just mentioned to somebody we had on, the fact is hes not getting applause from the left because the left sees him as a hypocrite. How do you see it . He has no constituent i. I am sphrp arizona and i dont know one arizonan who likes jeff flake. He says trump uses rules and regulations to stifle freedom of and compared trump to a dictator. Obama sat with a ruthless dictator for three hours in cuba at a baseball game. If you are a dictator you dont deregulate the economy and give power back to the people. Anybody who watches the news knows that if you have 90 person bad news and you have the economy that trump had, there is no way the media is being fair. David he said specifically that President Trump uses laws and regulations to stifle the truth. When did trump ever do that . I think what jeff flake is trying to do, hes known as a loser and hes trying to rebrand himself as a hysterical drama queen. There was no audience. The only person in the room was dick durbin. David there were at least two. If you take flake and durbin , thats the swamps swamp. David do you think well have any immigration conclusion before friday at midnight . And if we dont, are we going to have a Government Shutdown . I dont think well have a Government Shutdown and we definitely wont have daca. Dick durbin does not care about me, if you are a dreamer and you are watching, he doesnt care about you. There was a deal to be made and he purpose reply blew it up. He wants to keep the daca issue alive for politics. David the republicans have both houses, they have the executive office, if there is a shutdown its their fault. We have been through 4,000 of them, it means nothing. Two National Monuments closed. Its not a big deal. David after the last Government Shutdown, the republicans came back later and picked. You more seats. Its going to be hard for the democrats to have anything to run on. Dave there are no matter what the media says about the economy, its roaring. Thank you for joining us.
