Were they do something get this a lot of people he every saying that maybe health care is off its deathbed people are talking about doing something again, the president made a different conversation last night he is talking about a bipartisan way forward, i am not sure specifically what that is going to do for people like Freedom Caucus others said was not conservative enough everybody greece something has to be done 1986 treechl bipartisan with every you you bipartisan there is a way fared each thought going to move on talking about positivesity of making, a deal, with the democrat making it quickly. Kind of. Here we are, shockingly it is semi bipartisan. A lot of people showed up werent expecting a very good thing this is a very, very good thing. [applause]. And i know that we are going to make a deal on health care that is such an easy one so i have no doubt that is going to happen quickly i think it had will actually i think going to happen. Because we have with all been promising democrat republican we have all been promising that to American People so i think we are going to have very good relationships right chuck . I see chuck hello chuck. Iodine really think that will happen. One maybe talking about Chuck Schumer. Authentic talked in a few months. In november after President Trump won, suddenly Chuck Schumer and president talking on the phone what half a dozen times Something Like that since the president has referred to him as the head clown of the k Democratic Party not much talking about but interesting president should allude to health care after what happened last week he had a number of big democrats up on capitol hill yesterday talking about we are willing to work with republicans to do something to fix health care. Obamacare not repeal. The repeal thing wouldnt fly with them maybe there is something going to be going on with tort reform across state lines things barack obama when president. What is the difference in is it the same thing if you repeal it or you just take obamacare and fix. It huge difference. Repeal just mean, to o. Wipe it out start over Freedom Caucus, it is gone. Still calling it obamacare just going to fix the problem. The problem that they want to fix death spiral stuff like that republicans many say a bad idea, good intentions perhaps lets start from scratch. A big difference. I dont think truly sorry. Start over again. Just want to say democrat that stepped forward, because, new york city bipartisan state joe of new york said i am at table ready to negotiate had no to abandon the purely political tax and obamacare that the republicans are obsessed with, blurred like canvass have a red state expand medicare for state not going to make Freedom Caucus happy a lot of republican governors want free money. In kansas Sam Brownback is going to go ahead and veto that president interest of notched a win kept another Campaign Promise, the war on coal effectively over what he did was ordered epa to direct a review of the Clean Power Plan which last year, the Supreme Court said wait a minute, Obama Administration, you cant do that, about essentially what it was doing was it was going to force states to retire plants early could cost a trillion dollars lost input 125,000 jobs donald trump signing executive order right there want coal miners back to work signing that he did it. Okay, sorry. Miners told me about attacks on jobs livelihoods told me about the efforts to shut down their mines. The communities and their very way of life. I made them this promise. We will put our miners back to work. My administration, is putting an end to the war on coal i am taking historic steps to lift restrictions on American Energy, to reversing government intrusion and to cancel, job killing regulations. Miners so excited about this, reminded me of i read about this this morning, reminded me of that image when Hillary Clinton was sitting there in coal miner pushed picture across to her remember at table can when she was running for president in fact when you say composureing to close coal Mining Industry this is who you are affects a picture might have family.

What Obama Administration did with Clean Power Plan change to the point it wasnt going to make a big difference in co2, in the wall street journal today they say, by the year 2025 all of our changes that the Obama Administration regulations would have done would have been offset by the chinese he emissions of three weeks, in other words, we it is such an incremental change compared to polluteer that is china.

By given to him by whistleblower he cannot get pacemaker delivered nsa holding it up cant give details did not stop him from having to absorb a lot of calls to step aside recuse himself from this investigation. Recuse you yourself from this investigation. I still dont know why if you give me a reason to recuse myself i might consider it. Cites say you are too close to the Trump Administration to lead this investigation. I dont i dont know they actually said that but will you share your source . We will never even to you have another big committee. No. Interesting the wall street journal lead editorial said governor nunes should not real estate sign doing a good job adam schiff hyper bipartisan spread innuendo across airwaves without evidence.

And then, they kept paying them to dig up dirt, just extraordinary, so looks like, the senate now is investigating, the good is any not being investigated by somebody who is investigating other people .

Ainsley President Trump fulfill another Campaign Promise by signing a new executive order rolling back obama era regulations on Climate Policies and as you heard restoring american jobs. Brian here to react because its his job, too, he ryan zinke, a. How significant was gha announcement . It was great. I think on the coal, three points. One, it is better to produce energy here under reasonable regulation than watch it get produced overseas with no regulation. As a former seal, i can tell you i have seen a lot of countries and i have seen what happens in the middle east and africa when there is no regulation. So environmentally it is better to produce energy here and export our cleaner coal. China is moving from nuclear to coal fired generation plants. South korea is also heavily dependent on coal. Our coal is cleaner. So environmentally it is better to export cleaner coal. Ainsley that makes sense so we are in charge of the regulations and making sure that everything is done in a cleaner way. Whats your message to the Michael Moores out there. The folks that are worried about the environment that think this is the end of the world . Well, he is wrong. Is he wrong across the board and not the first time. I look at it as a stuart of the public land i want to do the right thing. We care about clean air and clean water and also care about jobs. There is a social cost of not having jobs in the economy. We have to manufacture low energy costs are part of that equation. And lastly, national defense. You know, a Strong America ensures a safer world. And the strength of america, largely depend on our military and our ability to export and be Energy Independent and not be held hostage by foreign entities. Brian so, mr. Secretary, as you know, the republican president , who is on mount rushmore, Teddy Roosevelt is a responsible for a lot of your job. A lot of National Parks are his idea. Can you be environmentally responsible and be procoal . Absolutely. And my intention is to be a stuart or the majesty of our public land and make sure we can create wealth and jobs on some of it. And i understand the difference between mirror and pen show. But a lot of our public land are multiple use and they are not in conflict on recreation and using our assets wily. We should be boy scouts. Leave the camp fire in good or better condition than we found it. Ainsley absolutely. What about the coal miners . I heard earlier they were so emotional yesterday. You were there. What did some of them say . Well, when you look at how bad its been. They are making, you know, trying to make a livelihood for their families. A lot of these communities have been hollowed out. To have a breath of hope by a president who took action, i think was a great moment. Brian mr. Secretary, thanks so much. Congratulations on the job. I will see you soon. Thanks, look forward to it. Brian they are not looking for free money just want an opportunity to work for money. Ainsley they just want work. Brian one of his signature Campaign Promises. And we are going to drain the swamp. Ainsley so how does he do that .

We all know what President Trump wants to do with that swamp thing. We are going to drain the swamp of government corruption in washington, d. C. [cheers and applause] and we are going to keep our promises, all of the promises that would made. Steve heres the question. Is the swamp too deep to drain . Our next guest doesnt think so. Here with his strategy is Fox News Contributor and the host of the new show the next revolution with steve hilton, mr. Steve hilton. By the way, steve is also the former director of strategy for Prime Minister david cameron. Of course, out on the campaign, then candidate donald trump started talking about drain the swamp, i think initially he thought it was kind of a corny expression but it really has resonated with people. He didnt really love the phrase but the idea which is washington, d. C. Isnt working. Its all controlled by lobbyists and donors and officials who have been there forever. Thats why change isnt happening. Thats what drain the swamp the idea meant. Once people heard the phrase they really understood the kind of changes that the president wanted to bring. Steve lets talk about how to drain the swamp. First step washington, d. C. By the way when people refer to the swamp back in the old days the National Mall where they built that was actually a swamp. So thats where the expression comes from. So, steve, the first thing we have got to think about something actually the president deal with the lobbyists. Here are the lobbyists. They are concentrated in this area. There is a street called k street. Steve in the middle. Through there. Thats where they all live and work and hang out and do their deals. All the things that people think of when they think about the swamp. The lobbyists are the heart of it the president has already announced executive order to clamp down on lobbying. Thats good news but. The swamp is more than just lobbying. Have you federal bureaucracy. Big federal agencies are based on pennsylvania avenue between the capitol and white house. Thrive angle right there. Exactly. Next steps from draining the swamp. Steve push that x one more time. Here we are. The next steps. Steve there we go. Technology. The next step after dealing with the lobbyists is the federal bureaucracy. Officials been in their positions year after year after year, they have got their own agenda. Actually, if you want to really bring change, he has got to change those agencies. Thats not enough to just say do this, not that. Steve right. In my experience trying to work in government. The only way to deal with it is you just have to get rid of those people. Have you to fire them. That is not easy. Because there is lots of rules there is the unions. There is all sorts of things that they need to get over. Then the final thing in terms of draining the swamp. The next step is here, is actually thinking about what goes on in congress. The fact that so many of the decisions there are really controlled by the donors, the big donors that trump spoke about in the campaign. Remember how he talked about theyre puppets of the donors. He has got to do Something Like that too. Steve Tell Congress to ignore the donors. The donors are where they get the money and run for reelection every two years they need the donors. The president is not going to succeed in draining the swamp unless he does something about the way that big money controls politics. Its a really tough battle. There are the three steps. Lobbyists, getting rid of the bureaucrats. Doing something about the donors in congress. Thats draining the swamp. Steve look at that you make it sound so easy but daunting. Steve hilton, thank you very much for joining us live. Other than draining the swamp the Congress Wants to get the economy going and the economy is already doing better under President Trump.

Brian ford continues to expand their preference in america at the cost of the presence in u. K. Expand in three different locates in michigan at the cost of 1. 2 billiondollar. Thats how much they are going to invest in these new plants. Brian 130 jobs. Engine plant in romeo, spend about 150milliondollar to expand capacity there. Ainsley romeo sound dreamy. Brian it does sound dreamy and i dont understand the pun. Ford says 200 million to spend new advanced data center in flat rock. Thats good news for michigan. Steve absolutely. Jobs going in, rather than going out. Meanwhile the folks over at forbes have got brand new personal dream index. What this shows is this shows where things are going up and where things are going down. Look at, as you can see right there, the majority of states in the United States are green. That is positive. Brian 33 in all. Steve upticks in manufacturing, employment, building permits. Meanwhile the red states, those are things where things are static or going down. Declines in bankruptcies have fallen since the beginning of the year. So when you take a look at the trend since donald trump became president of the United States, the American Dream is actually turning around. Brian if you do just trump ones that didnt vote for donald trump, President Trump, have not changed much except florida. And the ones that did, 33 and a cup 31 and a couple more are liking what they see so far. Ainsley it k. We put that graph back up. This is since donald trump has been elected. You can see the righthand of the screen how its ticking up. Steve right, the low point. See where the little red dot is . That was the month of december. Then can you see january when he took office and it is going up. Ainsley that means more people feel like the American Dream is attainable for them. They are more optimistic. Brian thanks, russia, for giving us the American Dream back. Ainsley back to russia. Brian put it on dressing. Steve heading over. Ainsley i like russian dressing. Steve me too. Ains now on my mind thanks to sean spicer. Brian Thousand Islands the difference is relish or pickles . Steve relish constitutes the thousand island.

Ainsley thats not a cafeteria. Brian seems like it because you walk with a tray. If they stare at me i will say thousand island. Ainsley if i have to turn on the news one more time and talk about russian dressing. Can we please move on. Abby does not have to do with russian dressing. Hillary clinton is making her way out of the wood and urging people to resist. I am thrilled to be out of the wood.

Brian house republicans, steve, meeting yesterday for the First Time Since the withdraw of their bill to repeal and replace obamacare. Now there are signs the effort might not be dead yet. I dont want us to become a factual lied majority. I want us to become a unified majority. And that means were going to sit down and talk things out until we get there and thats exactly what were doing. And we saw good overture overtum those members from different parts of our conference to get there. Because we all share these goals and were just going to have to figure out how to get it done. Brian meantime President Trump is also hoping to get to work on tax reform. What need to happen . Joining us now is casey mulligan. Is he the nor of this book side effects. The economic consequences of healthcare reform. Which is a great title for this segment. First off, what are the side effects of the influx of obamacare over the last 8 years and why is it so hard to unwind . Well, obamacare or the aca created a lot of new entitle. S for people, regardless or maybe especially if they dont work. And as a result, we had new set of penalties on work on top of penalties on work we used to have. And surprise, surprise, employment remains low nine years after recession. G. D. P. Isnt growing like were used to. And these are standard consequences of putting extra taxes, whether they be hidden or above board taxes on the economy. Brian that weighing down was looking to be eliminated. Then when you come to peoples healthcare, nothing gets more personal. When you tell people im taking this away and no you are no longer going to have, this politically, thats suicide, correct . Its difficult, now, whats interesting with obamacare, its a little bit ier because the people who are benefiting from the program dont actually like it that much. In fact, some of them who are eligible for free stuff dont sign up say i would rather pay the penalty than be involved with this. Have you a little bit of advantage in this case that the product that the government is offering is pretty i couldnt know desirable. Brian right, and you write too whatever problems you saw with the ryan plan, it would have saved a trilliondollar over 10 years. And would have set the table for made it ier for tax reform. But now have you got to somehow counter that trillion dollars, which is still in the system, with some type of you know, some type of trilliondollar savings. How is that going to happen . I mean, definitely, if youre going to spend a lot, say, on healthcare, it makes it tougher to cut taxes because the spending need to be supported and taxes is pretty much the only way we can do that. Brian then did you go on to say when it comes to the economic situation. This border tax brings in the revenue that will allow other tax cuts to be paid for. But many people, even on the right, are saying we cant do this border tax, including senator tom cotton. Yeah. Thats a type of tax i think we are rushing in to it. May be a good idea. But i think it need more analysis. Its pretty complicated. The proponents of a promise that the Exchange Rates will move a certain way to make everything work out. Thats a pretty complicated promise. Might not even be true. We certainly needed time to reflect on it its not something i would try to rush through at this time. Brian right, casey, of course, if you look back at the programs that have worked in the past. 86 tax reform bipartisan. Social security bipartisan even though every year we are trying to rescue it. Is there a bipartisan way forward . I know you are a numbers person and big picture person. Can you see a formula for success . There is definitely aspects of the obamacare and the Corporate Tax that both democrats and republicans dont like and would like to fix i would hope that the democrats would, especially those interested in getting reelected would say these are bad features. Its okay to team up with trump and republicans to fix some genuinely bad things. For example the Corporate Tax that we have n. America is nowhere close to whats going on elsewhere in the world. The other countries have cut their tax and we have just sat there both parties understand that that cant persist. And the obamacare has all these kind of strange rules about 29 hours. And 49 employees. Too Neither Party thinks those sharp lines are a good idea. Brian i have been told thats the work of a politician not a business person because they know those numbers will have a rack in the business world. They just didnt figure that when they were writing this up. Casey mulligan you figured it all out, university of chicago economics professor and author of side effects and complications the economic consequences of healthcare reform. Thanks, casey. Youre welcome. Brian straight ahead, he has turned his talent on the golf course into thriving business ernesto surprise in so many ways. This morning greg norman has a huge announcement. He is telling steve. Hopefully they will both tell us. Saturday night be in the spot dont believe me just watch dont believe me just watch can i get some help. Watch his head. Im so happy. Whatever they went through, they went through together. Welcome guys. Life well planned. See what a Raymond JamesFinancial Advisor can do for you. At crowne plaza we know Business Travel isnt just business. Theres this. a bit of this. Why not . Your hotel should make it easy to do all the things you do. Which is what we do. Crowne plaza. Were all business, mostly. Steve well, this should be fun. He was the number one golfer in the world for 331 consecutive weeks second only to a guy who actually is his neighbor by the name of tiger woods. Greg norman. He actually lives in between you and i. Brian really . Ainsley you are the mediator. Steve greg joins us right now. In addition to being a world class golfer, you are also a big businessman. What do you make of President Trump fulfilling Campaign Promises to roll back as many regulations to make it ier for guys like new business to do business . Its about bloody time i can say that quiet honestly. In Small Business we are the backbone of the business in small ways. We have 14. Joint venture to licensing. And nocht regulations we even see it more dramatically in golf course Design Business in the United States. As we roll these things back, as he rolls them back, its actually going to open up business. To this day i can say we have seen updick already an uptick of enthusiasm toward the golf industry. Steve since the electric. Since the electric. Brian you are not just about golf. You are about wine and apparel. Consumer products. Brian overall internationally you also have a sense of what the Corporate Tax rubbing would be. Would that play a role with you . Do you think that will be and in what way will it help . Irving. Were already seeing not to the magnitude of 2 trilliondollar coming rushing back in. Were seeing the magnitude of smaller amount of money coming back into the country wanting to be invested back into the United States. Im personally seeing that its a really surprising. Its happening so quickly but it needed to happen in this country for sure. Ainsley what does the American Dream mean for you . I was very lucky because i wanted to come to the United States because i was making 28 a week as an assistant pro. America opened my opportunity to be an entrepreneur and be able to take on these different platforms have. A partnership and have this dream of chasing something. Australia yes, australia 24 million people. United states is 300 million people. A business like mine is huge. Steve you teamed up with investor. Tell us what you are doing. Well, look, from the golf industry standpoint, the last 10 years, golf has gone down from 30 million players down to 24 to 25 million. So its been a dramatic dropoff. So why . Obviously gfc has done a lot to do with it teamed up with investor to Bring Technology and innovation to the game. A space sitting there virgin. Nobody has capital lied or identified it attracting a new audience. Making the golfers experience on the golf course a lot more enjoyable through connectivity. Brian you already have the beer cart.

Beef, wine, golf courses, real estate, clothing. Ainsley everything a man likes. Steve investor deal. Is that going to be an app. We can use. Im not going to disclose. It goes to market the first of october. But its a fantastic partnership. Investors iop platform is unbelievable. Innovation center is unbelievable. We want to build smart golf courses what i mean by that steve, shame on us in a lot of ways because to maintain a golf course on an annual basis can be north of a million bucks, right . If we can make these golf courses smart through iot that verizon has, bring that in, we save energy. We manage the golf course and it becomes more of a costefficient place to go. Steve fantastic.

Why not recould you yourself from this investigation. I still dont know why. You give me a reason to recuse myself i might consider it. Governor Chris Christie set to take a role to battle the Opioid Epidemic. The battle between sanctuary cities and the white house continues to rage. The policies of his administration have instilled fear in families and communities who have done nothing, nothing, nothing wrong. About people who entered the country illegally, which is breaking the law. It was law under obama. It is law under trump. The days that i got here until whatever, there is no quick. Youve got russia. If the president puts russian salad dressing on his salad tonight. Somehow thats a russian quick. This is how we roll we hanging around singing everything on the radio brian anyone up . Because there was a big party last night. After a big party oftentimes you sleep in. Steve sure, knowing the president of the United States, is he probably up. Dont you think . Ainsley probably. There was a big reception at the white house. He invited people from both side of the aisle. The men and women. If you are a congresswoman you got to bring your husband. If you are a congressman you got to bring your wife. Steve it was bipartisan and trump told President Trump told the senators and their spouses nobody ever told me that politics was going to be so much fun. Brian he is really enjoying himself so far. Not much has happened. Steve listen, he is having fun because is he winning. In the first hour and with greg norman just a moment ago we talked about how President Trump through executive order is rolling back a number of onerous regulations on businesses. And just a couple days ago, his attorney general Jeff Sessions announced what they were doing at the department of justice regarding sanctuary cities. If you dont follow the ice rules, you might actually not get some federal grant money or the federal government might actually claw back some of the grant money that the department of justice has already meted out. Ainsley secretary john kelly is interested to see what mayors think so he is sitting down with them today to ask the mayor what is do you think about the immigration laws . Brian they are going to unload on him. A lot of them are left wing mayors who want to protect people they call immigrants. Others say they are legal immigrants. Its not immigrant. We know we are a nation of immigrant. Its an insult to say were not a nation of immigrants and show black and white footages of people coming off the boat. Thats not the type of immigration we are talking about. Ainsley the ones committing crimes. Brian not the ones here illegally if they dont have a documents or phony Social Security numbers and there is no criminal background there is not going to be any legal ache. Steve sure, if ice is looking for you and you are in this country illegally, have you done something really, really wrong. Dana loesch was on last night and talked a little bit about the money involved. Kind of dangling out in front of sanctuary cities. Do they want the money . They are going to have to follow the rules. This is about people who entered the country illegally, which is breaking the law. And furthermore, all of these mayors, and yourself, robert, i dont recall a single point in history where you guys credit sighed former president obama, who said this exact same thing one year ago, nobody had any criticisms when it was obamas law but apparently now that trump is wanting to enforce, this now everybody has a problem . You are talking about protecting illegal entry. This is a crime. If you do not want to do the time, you dont do the crime. If you want to receive federal funding, then you need to comply with federal law. Its very y to understand all of this. This is our law. It was law under obama. It is law under trump. And we need to do something. Steve and, in fact, Jeff Sessions the other day said the Authority Given to him to do this was actually started a year ago during the Obama Administration. Brian just back to our original point. When the president says its fun. He does not mind turbulence and angst where he has lived his whole life having this bank against this bank to get this bid on a level i personally dont understand. But if you think about everything thats been rolled out from the six nation ban, because we cant understand who these people are, thats been a problem. From the roll out of the e. P. A. Its a positive for others but two third of the country or a third of the country is in tears because they think the earth is going to blow up. Then have you something that seems so logic call illegals here who are committed crimes were going to empower ice to work with local officials to oust you. Now all of a sudden you are antiimmigrant and antihispanic. Then whether you have representatives like in massachusetts. When they are actually instead of siding with the president they are actually giving advice for those who are here illegally. Ainsley yeah there is a representative there in massachusetts. Her name is michelle d dubuois. She posted this on facebook when when she heard ice was going door to door. I got the following information from my friend. I have message for the immigrant community brockton please be careful wednesday 29th. Ice will be in brockton on that day. Steve we dont know whether or not isis is going to be there that day. Ainsley i dont know if they are really going door to door. She heard they were going to be there and she posted it. That has not been confirmed whether or not they are planning to go there. Steve there was a reporter in the massachusetts qulear who confronted her about that warning and here is the interchange. Watch this. She was spreading a rumor. No, i dont. Its information in my community. Do you see how this could be also construed as fear mongering. No. If you didnt have it confirmed. No. Why not . I just dont. I have read my statement. Steve she has read her statement and also put out of a list of things to do essentially stay in your house. And if you get in trouble, fight back. Get a good attorney. Brian all right. Now lets talk about something that also brings up a lot of angst with people. And i guess this country and everyone has got an opinion. The chairman of the house Intelligence Committee. Was prior to the last three weeks one of the most respected people on both side. Devin nunes and its known to be a committee where politics pc really take as backseat if thats indeed possible in todays climate. Devin nunes made his way over to we believe the eisenhower building to take a look at top secret information that might have revealed. Nothing to do with russia. Might have revealed that the Trump Organization when he was a candidate and during the transition was spied on. And maybe there was some unmasking. Go over there and check it out. And then he told the president and cia. Didnt tell the Ranking Member. He said i should have told the Ranking Member. Ever since then he has been under siege by every News Organization and television channel. To step down. Ainsley now democrats are saying he should recuse himself from the investigation. One republican, too, on board with that walter jones from North Carolina. And he is saying im not recusing myself. Listen to this. Why not recuse yourself from this investigation . I still dont know why. You guys give me a reason to recuse myself. I might consider it. Your critics say you are too close to the Trump Administration to lead this investigation. Yeah. I dont know that they have actually said that. And will you share your source, reveal your source committee. We will never reveal sources and methods. Even to the other members of the committee. No, never. Ainsley i love that he said i dont think they said that. Ainsley critics would say. I would say. Brian can you say anything else after your critics would say. Steve democrats are steamed at him because he is raying the issue that they would like to avoid. And that is the fact that it looks like the u. S. Intelligence community surveilled innocent americans. And then somebody, unmasked some names, we dont know how many names, exactly. And then that information, which is supposed to be top secret, super secret spies and high ranking government officials, they are the only ones who can see this stuff. Apparently it was widely distributed throughout the government to do as much damage as possible. So, the democrats dont like that brought up. And every time mr. Nunez has said something. Adam schiff from california. The Ranking Member from the other side he is going well, there is still no proof that barack Obama WiretappedPresident Trump. Brian this whole thing started on thursday. One of the typest talk show hosts in the country. The washington post, new york times, daily times off the top of my head have gone over and talked about surveillance being done. Steve wiretapped. Brian wiretapping being done. These are reports out there cited by donald trump the next day, picked up by driven organizations. And the next thing you know everything hit the fan. Well, who are those people that had those sources that said that that story was true . Steve its all a good question. And so we dont know exactly how that particular committee is going to continue. But we do know over on the senate side, apparently according to adam housing report at fox news, Senate Judiciary committee is investigating whether the fbi properly included political opposition research. Remember. Ainsley the dirty dossier. Steve thank you very much. By a former british spy initially. He was hired by republicans to dig up dirt on trump. Then he was hired by democrats to dig up dirt on trump. And then extraordinarily, the fbi started paying them to dig up dirt on trump. Charles grassley want to know why would we get in bed as a government with this opo research outfit. Brian were not really sure. On the dirt theme. This is the muddiest investigation with everyone investigating everyone. Ainsley it really is i was going to say, can you keep it straight . What do you think about all this russia collusion and this investigation . It just continues to snow ball. Steve its so simple at its core. Did the federal government break the rule for political advantage as the Obama Administration going out to damage the Trump Administration. That is what they are trying to figure out. And you know what . We all want to know. Brian when you went upstairs with steve hilton, we did a background check on Abby Huntsman. When we toss over to abby this is what i got. Take it away. Abby lets get right to extreme weather this morning. Three Storm Chasers are dead after their cars collided while tracking a powerful storm system blasting through the south. It happened east of la buck, texas. One driver ran a stop sign. Now all thats left of those cars mangled metal. Despite last weeks collapse of the gop healthcare bill. President trump says there will be soon be a new plan on the table. The commanderinchief telling a Bipartisan Group of senators at the white house a deal is coming. I know that were all going to make a deal on healthcare. Thats such an easy one. Solve ni have no doubt thats gg to happen. We have all been prom mys, democrat, republican, we have all been promising that to the American People. Abby time line for that deal is still unknown. And the president s revised immigration order is back in court today. A federal judge in ohio will hear arguments about extending its temporary block on the order. Judge derek watson made that ruling two weeks ago. Hawaii argues the president s ache discriminates against muslims. The Trump Administration says its necessary for national security. Brian i got nothing. I got a lot of printouts. There is nothing there. You have not done anything wrong yet. Nothing wrong with Abby Huntsman. Thanks, abby. Ainsley thanks, abby. Brian 12 minutes after the hour. Ainsley President Trump is fulfilling a Campaign Promise ending the war on coal. Youre going back to work. [applause] youre going back to work. Are you ready .

Ainsley President Trump signing a new executive order surrounded by american coal miners. Brian and roll back obama era regulations that have been hurt struggling coal industry. Steve here to discuss is somebody right there with the president. In that picture the president of the Ohio Coal Association christian. Good morning to you. Good morning. Steve this essentially is what the people of ohio voted for on november 8th, you told one of our producers yesterday because with the stroke of that pen donald trump saved 130,000 coal jobs nationwide and 30,000 in your state alone. Absolutely. Its a terrific day for ohio coal miners. Expects exactly why ohio coal country overwhelmingly supported the president. Its why the president won the electric. He never made it any secret that he was going to support of the industry. And yesterday was a great day. Its an important step in it see our coal miners welcomed into the e. P. A. Building by three cabinet secretary, the Vice President of the United States and the president of the United States was something that was a Long Time Coming and really shows a change in leadership that were excited to see. Ainsley christian, of course everyone is so excited that its bringing jobs back to our country and to the coal minuting industry. People are concerned about the environment. We dont want to breathe in air thats going to cause us to get sick down the road. What do you say so the nay sayers and environmentalists concerned. We all want clean air and water. We have that in this country. The most up to date technologies that make our energy grid the cleanest and safest that the world has to offer. These arent mutually exclusive issues. We can have clean energy and we can also have a Clean Environment and use coal. And thats something that we have been able to perfect in this country and were proud of. It doesnt mean we need to sacrifice you mentioned 30,000 jobs in our states or hundred of thousand of jobs nationally or the Affordable Energy that families get to enjoy every single day in this country that other countries simply dont have. They are not mutually exclusive and were happy to work with the president to protect the environment and provide the energy that coal works to provide every day. Brian what has it been like for you that your industry is a dying industry and you should have gotten out anyway and all of a sudden somebody wakes you back up to life. Whats these last few years been like for a you . I cant lie. Its been tough. The renewed sense of optimism that we saw starting on november 9th. It was unbelievable. It was fantastic to see and ogo underground to coal miners and have them high fiving and get to work. Its been great. The optimism is something that we needed in this industry. And we have a president of the United States that stands with us and we thank President Trump for that. Steve sure, christian, you are from the state of ohio, every politician running for president wants to win ohio. Trump did. But you have seen historically politicians come in and make promises that they could never keep. How surreal was it for you to be in that room with him yesterday after actually keeping the Campaign Promise that caused to you vote for him . I think its one of the main reasons that President Trump won the state of ohio is people wanting to see someone that was going to do what he says and stick to his word. And yesterday President Trump stuck to his word. We have the Vice President of the United States stood in the building of the e. P. A. And said the war on coal is over. It was great. President trump is a man of ache. And our coal miners up on stage with him couldnt have been more excited to join him and be a part of honoring his pledge to america. Brian everything is going good in ohio now. Cleveland indians are one of the top teams. Browns on right track. Fracking and coal back. Thanks a lot, christian. Thats a strong statement on the browns. The indians are coming for the cubs. Coming back. Brian cavaliers, i forgot about the cavs. Steve kind of a big deal out there. As mayors of sanctuary cities continue to fight the Trump Administrations immigration policies, we talked to the mother son illegals. These are slap in the face of every tax paying citizen. Ainsley your internet brower history is now up to sale for the highest bidder. You wont see a dime. Steve great. So wake me up when its all over when im whyer and im older all this time of overactive nerves. Lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. Woman for some, lyrica can significantly relieve fibromyalgia pain and improve function, so i feel better. Lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions or suicidal thoughts or actions.

Thats how many conservatives could resign from the Freedom Caucus. Texas congressman brian babin tell the hill newspaper its a decision hes going to make in the future. Meanwhile, fellow texas congressman ted poe already left the group over fail to help the republicans pass their healthcare.

Fox news channel our network just had the highest. [cheers] steve ratest quarter ever in cable news history for the first three month of 2017 we were the most watched on both basic cable and prime time and total day viewers as well. Thanks to all of you for watching. Thanks, folks. Ainsley thank you, steve. And thank you at home. Attorney general Jeff Sessions threatening too take away federal funding from those cities who choose to be a sanctuary city for criminal illegals. Failure to remedy violations could result in withholding grants. Termination of grants. I strongly urge our nation states and cities and counties to consider carefully the harm they are doing to their citizens by refusing to enforce our immigration laws and to rethink these policies. Ainsley now, big city mayors like rahm emanuel an blasio here in new york are firing back, vowing to press on and shield illegals. Joining me now is Mary Ann Mendosa mother of Sergeant Brandon mendosa killed by illegal immigrant. Good morning. Thank you for being with us. Good morning. Thank you. Ainsley we have had you on and know your story. There are some people that might be joining us for the very first time and dont know what happened to your son. Will you tell us . On may 12th, 2014, he was on his way home from duty and was hit head on by an illegal immigrant in this country who had been shown leniency and released back out on to our streets. And he was three times the legal limit drunk, high on meth and driven 35 miles the wrong way on four different freeways in phoenix before slamming into my son. Ainsley what do you say to senator Chuck Schumer who says he is going to shield Illegal Immigrants and wont even use the word illegal . It sickens me and i dont know where this turn has happened to where our elected officials, these politicians who are elected by american citizens have now taken such an interest in protecting illegals. Its almost like a war is being brought against americans by these very elected officials. And, you know, they are using taxpayer money to pull this off. Im stunned. And i have talked to so many of the parents who have lost loved ones, killed by illegals. And none of us understand the importance of protecting illegals. You have de blasio now stating that they are going into new york schools. And teaching them to resist ice agents when they come in. Now we have elected officials going into our schools, teaching our children its okay to defy the law. Shut your mouth. Hide illegals. Where is this country going . Ainsley you even have this massachusetts state representative who is posting on her Facebook Page for anyone in her area if you are here illegally dont open your door because ice is going to be in our community today. And then listen to this. This is a San Francisco mayor. This is what he tweeted out. This is where kate steinle was killed. He said San Francisco knows that sanctuary cities are safer, more productive, healthier places to live. We work for all of our residents. San francisco stands as one. Whats your reaction to that . I think if they would put sanctuary city status up for vote with the taxpayers, i think they would be pretty surprised of the results of those votes. And, you know, this is not only a slap in american faces. But its a slap in legal immigrants. And they are starting to speak out now because they are tired of being grouped in with these politicians who are talking about our immigrants. These are illegal aliens who have invaded our country. And illegal alien equals criminal. So dont keep calling them immigrants in our immigrant communities because that isnt what they are. Once have you committed a crime, you have killed an american citizen, there are 18 to 25 americans killed a day in our country by illegals. There are hundreds more affected by illegal crime. There is a rape epidemic going on in North Carolina on children by illegals. And if the news stations would take the time to bring forward all of these crimes committed by illegals on a daily basis, it would probably take up the first five to 10 minutes of local news stations. Ainsley maybe thats why fox is number one as steve was just saying. We are telling your story. We are giving you a chance to talk about those statistics. The Mainstream Media is not talking about it at all. Why is that . Because they want to keep the issue of police brutality. Racist, hate crimes. All of this stuff. Thats the stuff they want to keep in the forefront. To keep this country in an uproar. And if americans really knew what was happening behind the scenes by our very elected politicians. And how they are hiding this information from us, and releasing dangerous criminals back out into the streets of their communities, this is why i support trump, we have to defund sanctuary cities. We have to secure our border. And we have to start releasing these statistics to let people know the jurisdictions that are releasing these dangerous criminals back out to live among us. Ainsley thank you. Mary ann mendosa, thank you so much. Thank you. Ainsley you are welcome. Governor Chris Christie back in the headlines this morning.

Its been touring the country telling folks about our heart healthy idaho potatoes, americas favorite potatoes, and donating to local charities along the way. But now its finally back home where it belongs. Aw man. Hey, wait up. Where you goin . Here we go again. Brian no doubt about it governor Chris Christie has been all over this election. First as a candidate then as a trump supporter. Even during the transition phase. Now we find out that governor christie finally might have a position that he is really intrigued enough to take. Steve joining us right now from the white house is Chris Christie the governor of the great state of new jersey where i live. Governor, good morning to you. Ainsley good morning. Good morning, cint duesy. How are you . Steve and the other two people. I will tell you about that pothole in front of my house later on. We are all over it, buddy. Steve governor, lets talk a little bit about whats going on at the white house today. I know the president is going to have a listening session to talk about the trouble with opioid in this country. Tell us about the task force that you apparently are going to be on and whether or not the president is going to sign an executive order on opioids. I look forward to sharing chg this task force for the president. Its an issue that he cares passionately about and so do i. Steve, you know the scope of this problem. In new jersey, for instance, this last year, four times the number of people died of drug overdoses than died of murder. Three times the number of people died of drug overdoses than died in automobile accidents. This is an epidemic in our country. And what this task force hopes to do is look at the issue of prevention, obviously interdiction of drugs before they come to our country. Also, very importantly, the issue of treatment. Addiction is a disease. And we need to treat it that way and get the people the help that they need to renew their lives and become productive members of society and their families. Were going to be looking at all those things at the federal government level and what the states are doing and come back to the president with recommendations about how to address this problem and give some hope to families who are being torn apart by this problem across the country. Brian i know thats your number one issue in your final years as governor and now its going to be for the nation. Governor, this dovetails with the other major issue and thats healthcare. How do you give people who need treatment, and off times very expensive, dont have the best insurance, the treatment that its going to keep them out of prison and out of the funeral home . Where does the money from that come from . Well, listen. I think right now the biggest problem is that we dont have enough beds. Its less about money than it is about getting access to this care and produce the type of facilities that we need to treat people in a way that will be both aggressive and effective. Were going to look at a number of those issues as we go through this, brian. I think were going to come back with some recommendations. We are doing things in new jersey now that are really helping this problem. I want to bring some of those solutions and other ones from other parts of the country to the entire country and make those recommendations to the president. I have confidence that the president will be able to tackle this problem. Like i said, cares about this personally. He heard about it not only in the campaign trail, but since he has been president. Ainsley i know that you care about it from a personal standpoint, too. I know this hit home. I remember when you were on the campaign trail you talked about your college friend. Why is this issue the opioid issue, why is that near and dear to your heart . Because i know that addiction is a disease. And i im prolife. And i believe in the sanctity of evidence life and i believe that every individual life is a gift from god. And so no life is disposable. And the person who addicted to heroin, opiates, other drugs, and their lives are falling apart, we have an obligation to save that life, too. To give them a second chance. So i think if you are prolife, you need to be prolife for the whole life. And thats what moa motivates me to be on the front lines of this issue. Steve good luck with that i know thats later today. Lets talk about something that if you watch the other channels, governor, you know its all about russia. What do you make of the russia thing that you see on all the channels and calls for devin nunes to quit and all that other stuff. I have said this morning that congressman nunes is fully capable of making up his own mind on whether or not he can run an objective investigation. The way we have set up intelligent committees overtime ensures that any investigation be conducted be bipartisan. Quite frankly my view on this is that people expect congress to do the appropriate time of oversight. I think they will. But i think they are much more concerned about issues like reforming a tax system thats unfair, creating jobs, rebuilding infrastructure in this country. And all those things there r. Things that the president is focused on. And i believe is he going to bring, real, real change to our country in that regard. So the people in the american the American People all across the country care a great deal about that and let congress, you know, conduct their oversight as they see fit. Ainsley department of Homeland Security director, secretary john kelly, who is also a general, he is going to be sitting down with mayors from different cities. I know the l. A. Mayor is going to be there, sanctuary city, to talk about the sanctuary city issue. What are your thoughts on that . Listen, i have said very consistently that i believe that everyone who takes an oath of office has an obligation to enforce the law. Thats what we promised to do when we put our hands on the bible and take an oath of a public office. And so im glad that the president is putting the focus on the fact that some people are just ignoring the law because they dont like it. Thats not the way its supposed to be. As a former prosecutor i wasnt allowed to ignore the laws i didnt agree with my job was to enforce all the laws as governor i did the same thing. Im glad we finally have a federal government who is going to say to these folks have you to enforce the law. If you dont like it, come to washington, get it changed. Absent that you need to enforce the law. Thats what the president is going to do im glad that he started work on that. Ainsley if they dont, should they lose their federal funding . Yes. Brian governor, can we talk a little bit about the structure of this white house . You have done it at the governor level. Have you been governor so much longer than President Trump, do you believe that he has the right people in place and are they serving him well . Only the president can make that determination because, listen, brian, im not there every day. I dont know exactly what he is being advised and when he is being advised. I have confidence in know that the president knows whether he is being served or not and the president will make decisions based on that decision. I have absolute confidence in him and his decisionmaking ability and his ability to evaluate folks. I dont think thats something that people from the outside can effectively evaluate. Thats only something that the president of the United States knows and i have confidence in him. Brian how do you evaluate his first 60plus day . Busy. Let me tell you. Were working hard. And getting a lot of things teed up for the American People. The American People voted for change. Steve yeah. They he wanted washington to change. They wanted the white house to change. And they have certainly gotten that i have confidence in this president s ability to bring great energy and vision and leadership for the changes that need to be made in this country. Thats what he is doing. Listen, when that happens, you are going to have some good days and you are going to have some tough days. I have had those in seven and a half years as governor. I know it personally. The fact is he has the resolve and belief in our country and its greatness to make sure he is going to do the job that need to be done to make America Great again. Thats what he talked about in the campaign. Thats what he is working on every day in that building behind my. Steve governor, one of those bad days was last week when it looked like the republicans who for the last seven years have been saying lets repeal and replace obamacare. They had the chance to do something and they didnt do anything. People are scratching their heads saying whats up with the republicans . Listen, steve, i have to tell you, i think people with shorter Attention Spans get less and less patience every day. The most important thing about this is that we do it right. Listen, last week was not a good week. You cant sugar coat it and i dont think anybody tried to. But the fact is that it took barack obama 15 months to get obamacare passed. No one should have expected that we were going to get it repealed and replaced in 60 days. So i think Everybody Needs to take a deep breath and understand that this is a tough issue. Its an issue the American People care about. And im convinced that republicans, both in congress and in the white house are going to get it right and get it done. Theres nine weeks down in this administration. 19 weeks t1199 to go. Take a breath and relax. Stuff will get done. Brian tough to deal with democrats on anything. Steve good advice. Sure, absolutely. Steve governor, thank you for joining us live today from nations capitol. Cin constituent doocy thank u very much. Ainsley there is other folks. You vote somewhere else. Brian queens on monday.

Bring you some very, very good news. Ainsley where is this company . This is in utah. Its called Iron Mountain designs in utah. And retired air force rescueman josh vannerbrink calls himself a Small Business owner and hobby welder. He makes American Flags. What caught our attention not only his craftsmanship but heart felt belief that the flag does not represent one person more than the other. It belongs to us all. For anyone ever bothered by the use of the American Flag as a political symbol, take heart. A man who served this country for 14 years is toiling away in utah, shining up those stars and stripes without partisanship, only pride. Every time i make them, i learn something new. Air force veteran josh vanderbrink launched his business after poked flag. Super cheesy one the plastic ones. He made one out of steel. I knew i had swung and hit something. Orders started coming. In the next week, josh had what he describes as a seizure. I just couldnt remember how i made them. When he came to, the man who served in 21 deployments had to spend the next three months relearning thousand make old glory. Customers had prepaid. Despite the medical stuff, i felt that i had an onus to them to get it done. His passion runs through each piece. And he refuses certain orders like flag tables. You dont eat on the flag. You dont stack anything on the flag. Josh also makes state flags. Collect this one out. Whats really cool especially with the colorado flag all the color, he doesnt use ink answered doesnt use paint. It is a manipulation of rust, a combination of chemicals, vinegar and a little ingenuity. The flags are costly to create because they are so timeconsuming. His team makes custom iron work and furniture for businesses like retired marine Tactical Gear and Training Company deliver i do knack micks. That attention to detail that you get from the military that makes you make sure you are doing stuff right carries through. Vanderbrink feels our flag should be a symbol of a united america. I think it would be cool to come to a point where we can say hey, this represents all of us. Lets have mature and emotionally respectful conversation. Each one comes with a George Washington quote on the back about honesty. I hope that it being on the back of the flag maybe it inspires somebody to be better. Part scientists. Part artist. Allamerican. Steve that is cool. Thank you. Those flag flags are heavy. The most popular is 70 pounds. Really seeing it in person its hard to capture the beauty. With a lot of money and a lot of care. Brian he has this seizure out of nowhere has a seizure and blank out and didnt know how to make it anymore. He didnt know how to make it. People had placed orders and he felt he had to fulfill those orders. Ainsley so many deployments and now doing this for our country. Amazing man. Fantastic.

Yesterday it was russian salad dressing. Some are accusing sean spicer of making light of a potentially serious situation. Others are using this as an opportunity to make jokes. Steve of course.

They are going to get the backing there speaking of the white house, we do know for sure the president had an opportunity to throw out the first pitch at the nationals game. He has declined. He has declined. Social media is buzzing about this. Some people are saying he is doing this because he might not want to see the boos. Others are saying hey, listen, he is ogoing to be working. This is a work day. This is actually a really good thing. Thats a big social media debate. Ainsley i would have to decline because it wouldnt make it that far. I would have to throw it into the ground. I wouldnt want to be faced with that. Steve great player back in the day and great golfer. Carley thank you so much. Thank you.

Ainsley do you remember when he was on the curvy couch a few years ago, and he was on the show talking about his album, and its a big x on the front of it, which is the roman numeral x and brian said tell me about your new album called x. Brian i think he called me a moron. Yeah, he called you a moron. Brian thank you, joe. T. Steve but no hard feelings. We invited him back. Brian no, i have hard feelings. Ainsley were going to ask him about it again. Speaking of invitations, the president invited senators from both sides of the aisle for dinner last night and their spouse. Its semi bipartisan. A lot of people showed up that people werent expecting, which is a good thing. Which is a very, very good thing. [applause] and i know were all going to make a deal on health care. Thats such an easy one. So i have no doubt that will happen very quickly, i think it will, actually. Because weve all been promising, democrat, republican, weve all been promising to the American People. So i think were going to have good relationships. Right, chuck . I see chuck. Hello, chuck. And i think that will happen. Steve of course thats Chuck Schumer who had been his phone of friend. They have not spoken since hes been president of the United States, although the president since the failure of repealing and replace the Affordable Care act last week, he has suggested he would need democrat help and, in fact, thats why he was talking about that. Yesterday chris coons who was senator, democrat from delaware, he wound up meeting general mcmaster and Jarod Kushner at this event last night, spent about ten minutes with each and said this is the sort of thing to help move us past pretty sharplydivided town in washington, dc. Thats what the president feels he needs Going Forward. Brian well, i get it and senator coons, we love having him on because hes a reasonable guy who doesnt read off the talking point or the antirepublican talking points. What are you doing if youre democrat . And youre making so much money in fundraising for anticipate trump. Do you pull back and do whats right for the country or say i cant even support judge gorsuch because im afraid of losing my seat. Ainsley you should always do whats right for the country. Mr. Smith goes to washington is what its like. You also have to consider what your constituents want because there are so many blue states that voted for trump. Steve and when you look at the list of people who want fixed for the country, i think Affordable Care act was less than 10 of the people. My governor was with about half an hour ago, and regardless of not doing anything, Chris Christie had this observation about what happened. The most important thing about this is that we do it right. Now, listen, last week was not a good week. Theres no way to sugar coat it, and i dont think anybody tried to. But the fact is it took barack obama 15 months to get obamacare passed. No one should have expected that we were going to get it repealed and replaced in 60 days. So i think Everybody Needs to take a deep breath and understand that this is a tough issue. This is an issue that the American People care about, and im convinced that republicans both in congress and in the white house are going to get it right and get it done. Brian they believe only thing is the back drain, and you know the arguments. Had plans to repeal and replace, you wouldnt think they would need 15 months. Obviously they do. A democrat, says republicans and President Trump honestly want to work with democrats in health care. Youll find a partner in democrats if you want to do it honestly. The problem is democrats dont want to hear repeal. They want it fixed. They dont want it repealed. So obviously, but if they could just work on the language a little bit and understand it needs to be revamped in a way thats affordable. Because a lot of people i understand they were writing checks on a overdraft in order to keep up with the plan thats not functioning correctly. Please tell me the calculus for this. Steve there are structural problems with this they have to figure out Going Forward. Meanwhile the president of the United States did keep a Campaign Promise yesterday. He said he was going to try to save 13,000 coal jobs coast to coast, and he did. Ainsley he went to the epa and signed an executive order to roll back president obamas epa plan. And folks were so excited. We interviewed a coal miner earlier, he said it was such an emotional time. He sat at the desk and they were all behind him as he signed that legislation. Listen to what he had to say. The miners told me about the attacks on their jobs and their livelihoods. They told me about the efforts to shut down their mines. Their communities and their very way of life. I made them this promise. We will put our miners back to work. [applause] my administration is putting an end to the war on coal. I am taking historic steps to lift the restrictions on American Energy to reverse government intrusion and to cancel jobkilling regulations. [applause] its a terrific day for ohio coal miners. Its exactly why ohio coal country overwhelming supported the president and why he won the election. He made no secret he was going to support the industry. I cant lie, its been tough. But the renewed since of optimism we saw on November November 9th was unbelievable. It was fantastic to see coal miners and have them highfiving and say, yeah. Lets get to work. Its been great. Its optimism we needed in this industry, and we have a president of the United States that stands with us, and we thank President Trump for that. Steve heres what President Trump signed yesterday to reveal the clean power act. And that would what it was doing was forcing states to retire coal plants early, apparently it was going to cost about a trillion dollars in output and 25,000 jocks. So now what theyre going to do Going Forward is that epa is going to revisit it. Of course, its going to be tied up in the courts, and they expect this to be tied up in the courts for years but nonetheless for the 13,000 people who kept their jobs yesterday, it was a good day. Brian and the question is do you take Carbon Dioxide off the blacklist or the unblacklist because that hamstrung the fossil fuel industry and a lot of people are calling on the epa director to do just that and go all the way out there. Ainsley its wonderful news if youre in the coal Mining Industry. We remember the picture with Hillary Clinton in front of coal miners and their family members and the people that were going to lose their jobs. Steve all right. Those are some of the things that people are talking about on this wednesday. Now with the headlines, Abby Huntsman. Abby happy wednesday to all of you. We want to get to extreme weather out there. Three Storm Chasers are dead after their cars collided while tracking a powerful system in the south. It all happened east of texas. Investigators say one driver ran a stop sign now thats left of those cars, mangled metal. And a fox news alert, its official. Brexit is underway. The british people, the United Kingdom is leaving the european union. This is a historic moment from which there can be no turning back. We are going to make our own decisions and our own laws. Abby this happening just moments ago, british Prime Minister teresa may kick starting in parliament, britain has two years to complete the removal process from the european union. Also chief mayors across the nation will meet with john kelly to discuss sanctuary cities and this as some start a initiative to cut funding. The mayor of new york city demanding that nypd keep ice agents off of School Grounds unless they have a warrant. And the governor of vermont signing a new law limiting Police Involvement with the feds. And does this ever happen to you when you go out to eat . Hey, thanks. Are you my therapist . Take a walk. You want a happy meal . Can we get a happy meal . Will somebody get the kid a happy meal . We can all relate. Well, fine dining restaurant wants to make sure that doesnt happen on their watch. Banning children five and under after the owner says theres been too many young kids crying, screaming, and misbehaving. Theyre now getting mixed reaction, as you can imagine online. This has louvre talking this morning. One tweets i think its great but the problem isnt the kids. Its the oblivious parents that continue to eat while kids scream and run around. It should be a family experience, not allowing kids ruins that. And another writes this. Im a mother of four, and i like this. Sometimes i need my peace. The early bird special, so were constantly around kids. Steve we all have kids, so we get it. You want to take your kids out to eat but sometimes they act up and then youre bothering people at the other table. Brian you want to know the answer . You have to get the children to unionize and agree as people and not disturb adults. Act their age. Ainsley if youre the owner of the restaurant, you get to make the rules. If thats what they want to do, fine. You dont like it, dont go there. Brian kids stay home. Steve it could be better for business but then again, it could impact it. Ainsley most kids arent going to take their kids to a fancy restaurant anyway. But apparently they do. They have a problem with it. Brian if youre a kid under 10, use snapchat. Ainsley its under 5. Brian under 5. Okay. Straight ahead democrats vowing to block Supreme Court nominee neil gorsuch. But there could be at least one democratic vote. Could joe mansion sign with republicans on this issue . Hell join us next. Steve and shes officially out of the woods and back in the spotlight. Wait until you hear what Hillary Clinton just said about President Trump. I never miss an Early Morning market. But with my back pain i couldnt sleep or get up in time. Then i found aleve pm.

See what a Raymond JamesFinancial Advisor can do for you. Brian Senate Democrats say theyre going to do everything they can to block the appointment of judge neil gorsuch. Its surprising getting him a spot on the Supreme Court. They already delayed it a week, except our next guest who is breaking Party Leadership and says deserves at least an up and down vote. Joe mansion joins us right now from washington. First things first. After next weeks delay, theres going to be a vote on gorsuch who i thought was pretty impressive on the hearing and the oneonones. What will you do . Well, let me tell you what needs to be done. We need to come together as a body and save the country, save the bodies, which is a 60vote rule, thats been a minority democrats and republicans what goes around comes around. We need to protect the integrity of the senate and thats the most important thing that i am working on. Brian right . Neil gorsuch you know, neil gorsuch no matter whether you like the man or not, this is a good, decent human being. We should not eviscerate this person as a human being. If you agree or disagree with some of his findings, thats one thing. But this is a good, moral standing family person who likes his country. So im going to look at it from that standpoint and make a decision after that. But i am most concerned about the 60vote rule and thats a protection for democrats and republicans in the future. Brian right so if he doesnt get to 60, Mitch Mcconnells going to use the Nuclear Option and pass it with 52. And with briar or anybody else retires, then thats the threshold. Well, neil, when i say with neil gorsuch, Justice Gorsuch by all counts, this person is basically like merrick garland. Should have got upordown vote. This gentleman deserves an upordown vote. Thats the way i look at it. But im there to protect the 60vote rule. Theyre going to have to come together. If the republicans would take off im going to do the Nuclear Option because harry reid did it. Harry reid was wrong. Absolutely dead wrong. And i said that, and im the only one Still Standing that voted against what he did. But two wrongs dont make a right and my colleagues would take that off the table, maybe it would move us together. Brian okay. We just have to work on it. Brian we had a big get together at the white house, and you thought it was groundbreaking because democrats and republicans were talking to each other. But Something Else happened during the day. What happened for the coal miners tangible, what tangibly changed yet . Lets talk about this first. This is the first president in my time that i can remember that has come out and really acknowledged and thanked the hardworking men and women in the coal mines and Coal Mining Community that have done what they done and contributed to this country. President trump said thank you for what youve done. I havent forgotten you, im going to help you all i can to help you get back to work. He took away the unnecessary rulings. We did not throw the Environmental Concerns out the window. We did not throw the baby out with the bathwater. Epa, army core of engineers, theyre back in control. What they have always done. The thing about the Obama Administration, which i was upset about, they added another layer, through it back the office of surface mining, put another 2 300 regulations on that were redundant and wore people out and basically people lost their jobs. We have a chance to stabilize the market, thats what President Trump has done, and i have to add one more thing. Brian go ahead. Tell me. Mr. President , if youre watching. Help us make the phone calls to my colleagues, my republican friends and colleagues and say lets pass the miners protection act, which guarantees their pension and their retirement, and their health care benefits, which they worked for and was produced from the coal they mine. Those are the miners of the past, and their widows depend on it. A lot of times they sacrifice their health and families for this country, i have to be f senator joe mansion, thank you. Always good to be with you. Brian meanwhile coming up straight ahead, two doctors survive a bullet and the only explanation, a miracle.

First up, Chris Christie set to play a new role to attack the nations Opioid Epidemic. The governor joining us earlier saying if youre prolife, you have an obligation to help save all lives. No life is disposable and the person whos addicted to heroin, opiates, other drugs, and lives are falling apart, we have an obligation to save that life too, to give them a second chance. Steve s first step in fulfilling a Campaign Promise addressing the drug crisis. And a massive shakeup to the dnc, newly elected chairman perez is asking all staffers to give them the letters of resignation immediately. He wants to rebuild the party after a rocky 2016 election season where Hillary Clinton lost. All right. Ainsley. Ainsley thank you, steve. It is a true story about two medical missionaries who get caught in the Ebola Outbreak in west africa, remember that . And they end up with the deadly virus themselves. Listen. The worlds most dangerous virus. The disease is out of control in west africa. My phone rang and ken isaac said one of our daughters has ebola. David looked at me, and he said you too have ebola. There was a high likelihood our team members were going to die. Ainsley wow the reverend Franklin Graham is executive producer doing movies now of facing darkness, and he joins us now to tell us more about the film and the message of faith. Good morning to you, reverend. Thanks for joining us. Thank you, ainsley. Ainsley i remember this. We all remember this. The ebola, it was so scary. We were worried about people coming back to america that might have contracted it, and then we learned that a man who has given up so much of his free time to go and volunteer for your organization and help other people in liberia, that he gets this disease and so does the missionary, the female nurse. They both get it and, ainsley, there was nothing i could do to save their life. This is a story of god. God interfering and god moving people like a chess pawn to save their life. So we wanted to document what god did and give him the credit for it. But god brought a lot of people together, and this is the story of many people coming together and god moving them to save the lives of these two. And theyre still with us today. And this movie comes out thursday. Then theres going to be a redo on the 10th of april. But if someone wants to see this, they can go to facing darkness movie. Com, and they can put in their zip code, and it will show you where the theaters are in your area. 600 theaters across the country that are showing this. But its a great story, and its true, and these arent actors. These are the real people. Ainsley you were following them through their diagnosis; right . Well, we have people in we were always sending our cameras out when we have projects like this to record it. So we had this recorded, and we just had a mountain of this video, and we thought what are we going to do with it . And i felt and so did others, we need to show what god did. Ainsley do you see in the movie how they were diagnosed, did they they didnt have a prayer at that point; right . No. And i had i was working on a project up in alaska. And when i got the call, and i went back home from North Carolina. And, you know, when you get ebola, you have about ten days if youre healthy. If youre not healthy, you may have about four days to live. They were healthy, of course. But the time the clock was ticking. Airlines wouldnt bring you back. We even had an insurance policy where a plane would go anywhere in the world to pick you up if youre sick. Well, when we told them that theyre going to liberia, and they had an ebola patient, they said no way. Ainsley no way. Theres a chance the pilot would get it. When you get the phone call and someone is working for your organization, what went through your mind . It was probably the worst day of my life. And i told dr. Brandtly when i got to be with him for about a month later, he said youre responsible for the worst week of my life. And he said my week wasnt much better. Ainsley im sure. Lets talk about what god did in this situation. How did they survive . There was a drug called z map that had been sent this is just one dose that had been sent to dr. Khan and the lawyers said dont give it to him. He died. So they brought this experimental drug over, and it helped. They gave him one of these bags just out of a dose of three. Just one. And he went into convolutions and after 30 minutes, he was dying, he went into convolutions and got up out of bed and went to the bathroom. He hadnt been out of bed for three days. Ainsley now hes living in fort worth, texas. He has a family, hes living in fort worth, texas. This is a story of the nurse who survived. Wonderful lady. Ainsley i cant wait to see it.

Then the chronic, widespread pain drained my energy. My doctor said moving more helps ease fibromyalgia pain. She also prescribed lyrica. Fibromyalgia is thought to be the result of overactive nerves. Lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. Woman for some, lyrica can significantly relieve fibromyalgia pain and improve function, so i feel better. Lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions or suicidal thoughts or actions. Tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worsening depression, or unusual changes in mood or behavior. Or swelling, trouble breathing, rash, hives, blisters, muscle pain with fever, tired feeling, or blurry vision. Common side effects are dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain and swelling of hands, legs and feet. Dont drink alcohol while taking lyrica. Dont drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. Those who have had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. With less pain, i can be more active. Ask your doctor about lyrica. Man have a kangaroo on a leash. What . What the. Brian right. We that was necessary censorship. Its your shot of the morning, everybody. Its a kangaroo being walked on a leash in detroit. So tell me whats unusual about that. Well, a kangaroo was loose and if you have a kangaroo, you need to put it on a leisure, especially with a lot of traffic. Steve turns out the guy who owns it, owns an exotic zoo and had been hired to take the kangaroo to a Birthday Party in that neighborhood. Ainsley whos walking whom here . Brian finally, if youre walking a kangaroo, do you hop like the kangaroo . Steve that guy didnt. Brian he didnt. He just tried to run, but he was bouncing a little. Steve kangaroos name . Darwin. Ainsley as in darwinism . Steve i dont know. Maybe. Probably. If its against the law to own a kangaroo in the city of detroit. Ainsley its the Exotic Animal law. Steve thats why Marlin Perkins relocated to omaha. Brian right. And thats why he does mostly jungle work. By the way, great insurance, great company, mutual omaha. Let me just say this. If you are out there right now, and you have video of your kangaroo, we would like to share it because we obviously love kangaroo video because weve had it four times. Ainsley if youre in australia, send us your pictures. Brian zookeeper starring kevin james, he was brilliant in that. Ainsley whats the next spot in line . Brian thats all that zoos talk about. Ainsley you want to talk about some jobs . Jobs coming to america . In michigan, theyre opening up three new ford plants, and its going to bring a lot of jobs to that area. Theyre spending 1. 2 billion. Steve thats right. They announced it yesterday and the good news is it sounds like theyre going to use the money to help retrofit, for instance, the romeo michigan engine plant. It will also be used to help manufacture the bronco and the ranger. Brian and, by the way, one of the key states for President Trump to become President Trump, michigan, and it seems like theres a revitalization going on in that city where thought they had to get over the car industry, they dont, it doesnt seem yet. You know whats paying the price . Other spots elsewhere. We hear ford is pulling a plant from uk. They say they rather build it in this country. Steve if theyre going to be used in the United States, that was Donald Trumps whole point. Meanwhile forbes has started a new American Dream index. Adi. This is the premier version of it. And what it does is it shows that since he has taken the presidency, things in the United States have actually turned around. Ainsley yeah, look at this map. Its showing you the green states. It looks like things are turning upward in your state. If youre in one of the red states. Steve yeah. Brian yeah, but thats exactly like the election. So, to me, when you can get everything green when they start feeling that way. It just seems, to me, that shows a divided america in a way. Ainsley look at this one, brian. So since hes been elected or since hes been inaugurated, you can see the trends since december going up on the far righthand side of your screen. It means people feel like the American Dream, people are positive and optimistic about achieving their dream. Brian i like this this graph more than the other one. Steve you can see the point where he was inaugurated there at the end of january, keep in mind it bottomed out at the end of december. The United States stock market took off for what . 11 weeks or Something Like that after donald trump was elected, and it showed a new kind of optimism. Is it connected . Dont know for sure but nonetheless, forbes is trying to figure out state by state this metric of the American Dream, and its all about how the people in the middle class are feeling life in the United States. Brian i want to see two graphs. I want to see the unemployment rates for america, the typical one we have, which is very low, and i want to see the other one, which is people who can work that cant find a job that drop off the workload, and i think we should work on both of those metrics. Then i think youre going to get more optimism and less polarization. Steve you know what . How about those two graphs and a guy walking a kangaroo. Brian that is a show. Ainsley thats a positive show right there. Brian wouldnt be able to they would light a candle to that. They would actually give up and run yesterdays ainsley oh, my lord. Lets hand it over to abby, brian needs to take a break. Abby i dont even know where to go from here. Good morning, guys. We can start with this. The lawyer defending the 18yearold illegal immigrant charged with sexually assaulting a 14yearold classmate. Said the victim consented to it, and they had text messages. Going to plead 100 innocent. Evidence is going to show that this was a none forceable and consensual encounter. But investigators say they have a strong case against henry sanchez. He and another student are accused of forcing the victim into a High School Bathroom in maryland. And Hillary Clinton is making her way out of the woods and urging people to resist. I am thrilled to be out of the woods. There is no place i would rather be than here with you, other than the white house. I mean, its not like i didnt know all the nasty things they were saying about me. Some of them were actually quite cre resist, insist, persist, enlist. Abby a speech to business women in San Francisco, also slammed the health care bail calling its failure a victory for all americans. And this little girl suspended for holding a stick that looks like a gun. A mother calling it outrageous saying the girl found the stick on the playground and was using her imagination. I was playing with my two friends chloe. Chloe was the queen and was the princess. We know why its bad because we watch the news. But then i have to tell my kid youre not allowed to play like that at school because people do bad things to kids your age. The school said caitlyn was a threat to other students because she made a shooting motion. A violation of the schools policy. Her mother is now demanding an apology. Steve well, the problem is the schools have those zero tolerance policies. Brian how does that work . I know but you cant have zero tolerance with kids. Kids are born in a gray area, and they stay there. Steve shes just playing. Shes five. Does she understand . Brian yeah, and theres certain risks she cant go into. That was an earlier story. Its not easy being a kid. Ainsley next year she can, though. Brian yeah, next year shell be 6. Steve the Mainstream Media seems obsessed with house Intel Community chair devon nunez trip to the white house. Brian you think so . Steve but where were the Mainstream Media when the man accused of being behind antitrump violence visited the white house when barack obama was president more than 300 times . Were going to talk about that next. Brian and things go a little off the rails when country superstar trace atkins comes to town. Oh, excuse me. Such an idiot. Brian did you just call me an idiot . Brian see, i thought he called me a moron. He just called me an idiot. I feel so much better of myself now. Ainsley we didnt have to read the scenes.

We have reported here devon nunez took to the white house before he shared it with his committee. Revelations that he had a secret meeting on white house ground. Democrats and at least one republican are demanding devon nunez recuse himself because he has appeared to be coordinating with the white house. Your critics say youre too close to the Trump Administration to lead this investigation. Yeah. I dont know that theyve actually said that. Steve but where was the outrage when the Obama White House had controversial guests . Some of them invited hundreds of times. Lets talk to the White House Correspondent with the daily call, joins us from our nations capitol. Good morning to you. Good morning. Steve you know, conveniently what they leave out of that Network News Coverage is that the fact apparently devon nunez went to the white house last week to talk to a whistleblower because he couldnt look at whatever secret information they had compiled, the Intelligence Committee where he worked or else, you know, everybody would have known that he was a whistleblower. Exactly. And devon nunez has said that he went to the white house to see these documents because he could not see them on capitol hill. Steve right . So he had to go to the white house. So we dont know what he saw. We dont know what he looked at he has. Steve and of course this fascinating of the Mainstream Media of all things russian. But whats interesting is theres a complete double standard. For instance, lets put up a graphic. Weve got a graphic of the Russian Ambassador to the United States. There he is. He visited the white house when barack obama was president at least 22 times, and i dont remember the outrage, caitlyn. Exactly. This is the guy who Jarod Kushner is coming under fire for having met with. Jeff sessions, mike flynn lost his job because he met with this guy and then misled the Vice President about it. But its worse pointing out that this guy was clearly welcome at the white house when barack obama was in office. Now, its worth noting that these logs are not perfect records because if someones on the logs, it doesnt necessarily mean they showed up to the white house. But they do show that this Russian Ambassador was at the white house at least 22 times. And thats just when he was there when it was a meeting between him and other people. There were at least a dozen or so more times when he was there at an event. But he was on the logs at least five times. So it is worth pointing out that theres push back with Jeff Sessions meeting with this guy when he was a senator but none when this guy was showing up to the white house a lot of times. Steve absolutely. Mean what do i have we have the irs commissioner accused of targeting conservative groups. He went to the white house 161 times. Of course no coordination, according to the white house. And bob cramer accused of insight violence on the trump rallies on the visitor log 342 times. And lets be honest. The reason why theres no outrage is because it looks like to a fair observer that they are working with the Democrat Party to just simply discredit Donald Trumps presidency. Yeah. Doug is a guy who led an agency that literally targeted conservative groups and bob cramer sent people to donald trump rallies in the fall and during the campaign who faked and said they were sexually assaulted. So these are people that we should also be looking at. You know, lets not just point out that sergey kislack was at the white house a lot. There are also other questionable figures who were at the barack Obama White House multiple times, and i think its worth pointing out. Steve and we have done just that. All right. Mission accomplished. Caitlyn, thank you very much for joining us. Thank you. Steve 12 minutes before the top of the hour. Coming up country superstar trace atkins and President Trump go way back. The winner of allstar Celebrity Apprentice is the very great trace atkins. Steve so what is the very great trace atkins think about how the president is doing so far . Were going to talk to him live next. But first, lets talk with bill hammer, who was never on the show because he was just born a professional. Good morning, steve. Looking forward to seeing atkins in a second. Where is this going if anywhere . Well talk to two of the main players tray gowdy and then senator john mccain.

Steve remember when President Trump then a tv show host made this celebrity hire . The winner of allstar Celebrity Apprentice is the very great trace atkins. Brian now that the American People have hired mr. Trump, what does trace atkins think of donald trump . Ainsley joining us now is trace atkins. Hi, trace. Brian so, trace, was that the easiest moment of your life . No. Ainsley what was . Kids being born. Okay. We have to go there first, of course. And then i dont know. When they made me a member of the grand ol grand grand ol opry, that was cool. Steve and it has to be cool the president of the United States picking you. Well, he wasnt the president when he did that. Steve but he is now. Steve tell us something that you dont know about donald trump that you saw in those many weeks filming Celebrity Apprentice. Well, it seems like people seem to be surprised when they ask me what hes like, and i say hes exactly what hes like when hes on camera, you know . If youve developed if youve made an opinion of him based on what youve seen on television when hes in front of a microphone, when hes on camera, you can feel pretty sure that thats how you really feel because thats what hes like. He doesnt turn an off and off for the camera. Thats what hes like. Ainsley and people ask you what Brian Kilmeade is like, we know what you say about him. Listen. Steve oops. Oh, god. Kilmeade was absent when they had roman numeral day. [laughter] brian oh, excuse me. Youre such an idiot. Brian did he just call me an idiot . I didnt mean that. I apologize for that. Brian no, you should not pathologist. It was very funny. I did not know the name of your album was tenth album, so you put the x on there, and i said your new album x, and you said you idiot. Bless your heart. He has never watched the super bowl knowing which one it was. Brian super bowl l. Steve so speaking of albums, you have a new one coming out friday. Ainsley should we let brian tell everyone what the name of the album is . I think he can get the name of this one. Brian something going on. Why . Theres a song in it called somethings going on. And you look at all the songs in the album and say thats not going to work. But theres always something going on. Ive always got something happening. Either im touring or doing a movie or voice over or charity stuff. Theres something always going on, so it seemed like it was right. Steve speaking of movies, you make a great cameo in deep water horizon. I saw it two weeks ago. You are so intense. Thats because peter burg made me mad. Steve the director. Yeah, i had done a couple of scenes with wahlberg and then peter came out and started poking me in the chest with his finger and cussing me in front of all those people in the lobby of the hotel and embarrassed me and screamed action, and i grabbed wahlberg and slammed him against the wall, you know . But he was mad at me because i wasnt being rough enough with mark, and i didnt really want to be. Steve because you played the father of the missing person from the oil rig. Right. And it was an actual and i got to talk to Mike Williams who wahlberg was portraying in the movie, and i asked him. Did this scene actually happen . And he said, yeah, as a matter of fact, it happened right here in the lobby of this hotel. Brian you worked on a oil rig . Yeah. I was really honored that they is asked me to be in that movie just for a little bit. And at first when they called, and said i want you to do a scene in this movie. I said i dont have time. And they said, well, you get to sling wahlberg around the lobby of a hotel. I said okay. Brian we have a little bit more with trace in two minutes. Steve he has a new album.
