Brian didnt he win two years of the row . Ainsley not entertainer of the year. This is the first time he has won. Brian the red, white, and blue suits that Tyler Hubbard wore how do you think they are selling today . Steve whats the number . Brian i would buy that suit. I think that would be great. If you have an extra red, white, and blue suit i would like to wear it or if Tyler Hubbard is done with it. Steve uncle sam, put down that phone. Thank you very much. We will be playing some of the highlights from the show throughout todays program. This monday morning we lead with a fox news alert. Kirstjen nielsen is staying on at the department of Homeland Security for a couple more days after she suddenly decided last night to resign. Brian depending on how its portrayed. She says she wants a clean transition to new acting secretary kevin mclean than and that happened last night. Griff jenkins is in washington as the Trump Administration is heading now in a new direction. Hey, griff. Griff good morning, steve, anxiously and brian. Nielsen is out. Surprised us in washington. Tweeting she will stay on the job until wednesday. She was brought in by former chief of staff john kelly. She led the agency since the end of 2017 through these Turbulent Times as the surge at that border has grown and grown. In a Resignation Letter expressed frustration writing this i hope the next secretary will have the support of congress and the courts in fixing the laws which have impeded our ability to fully secure americas borders. Former acting ice director and fox news cricketer tom homan agrees. She is right her hands have been tied. Griff Kirstjen Nielsen will be leaving her position and i would like to thank her for her service. Im pleased to announce that Kevin Maclean than the current commissioner will become acting secretary for deey alarming the Trump Administration who put children in scadges reportedly resigning because she is not extreme enough for the white houses liking. Mclee than is no stranger to the job. He has been in cbp since the last administration under president obama. He takes over as the president is clearly signaling as he wants a tougher path towards solving this border crisis. Nielsen was with the president on friday and n. Calexico, california. No indication then that this was coming. But, clearly sometimes we just dont know whats happening behind the scenes. Steve griff, apparently this meeting where this happened last night was not on the president s schedule. According to news sources she had no intention of quitting before the meeting. She was fired, right . Well, i dont know. We dont know. And perhaps we will find out more. Clearly we have heard from a number of sources in the media that she was unclear on whether this was a meeting over her removal or whether it was a meeting about escalating the situation at the border because, remember, the president did with drawing the nomination of ice director ron vitiello, which would have told us that clearly he is looking to make a shift. But whether it was a change this big, its anybodys guess whether secretary nielsen knew this was the end of the road for her. Brian all right, griff. We will continue to speculate and see what happens. The president really doesnt usually fire face to face usually have somebody else do it. Steve he did it on the tv show. Brian not that he couldnt but that he did. I feel bad for her in that she is in an impossible situation. Right now if you want to solve the problem with mexicans coming over the border we did it with rules and regulations if you want to solve the problem with Central Americans coming through we didnt do it. If you are here for 20 days and a child and with an adult you get to say. The signal to nicaragua to el salvador to guatemala come now the door is going to close. Brian she could not go out to a restaurant with her family. She worked 50 hours a day for the longest time. Got blasted in congress when she went there she took a lot of the pummeling from the press its a thankless thans job. Ainsley it is. When you have catch and release and they come over and they are in these facilities and have to release them after 20 days its hard. Cbp say we are on tap to apprehend 1 million illegals at the border this year alone. Tough to do her job. People are wonder if the new guy ach mclee hand. He work for president obama as griff was saying. He was the deposit. At this time the commissioner at cbp gave him a glowing accolades. He says when i look back at my lengthy career. I can count on one hand the number of people whose intelligence, honesty and intellect i have the utmost respect and admiration for and kevin is one of them. He remainness Good Standing with democrats and republicans. Steve he would have no problem. When he was confirmed by the senate the score was 7719. Whoever heads up that department that is the president s signature issue. Brian obama holdover. Steve im talking about that particular job. Heading up Homeland Security because you are in charge of the border. Thats what the president has been all about. Apparently he was very happy at the beginning of his administration when the number of illegal border crossings were something at 50 year low. But then it started going north. Six months ago, apparently he told aides he wanted to fire her because he was so angry about the caravan. And a number of people at the department of Homeland Security are surprised she lasted as long as she did. New york stocnonetheless, look,e president is cracking down on the southern border and he needs somebody who he feels can do a better job. Apparently john bolton, according to the the washington post, was not a big fan of hers. He is probably one of the reasons why she is gone. Brian Steven Miller as well. General kelly was a big fan. And general kelly was there early doing a great job as chief of staff. She took over and brought out i dont know roberts report that her background may not really built for this. Ainsley cyber security. Brian i think thats interesting. The president came out with something. He has a great way of labeling things to get across to people how he feels. Hey, guys, stop coming, were full. I think thats a good message at the border. But i also think its maybe actually, we have the tweet. But i think its a bad message for people who want to come here legally. Not full for people who want to come here legally. Not full for people on visas who are in college and first round draft picks at stanford that want to stay and the president increased the number of h 1 visas. I forgot the actual name of it. But he has increased that but i just think that the message would be come here, we just want you to do it the right way. Ainsley president tweeted. He said more apprehensions, capture at the southern border many years. Country is full. System has been broken for many years. Democrats in Congress Must agree, must agree to fix loopholes. No open borders. Crimes and drugs. Will close southern border if necessary. Mexico must apprehend all illegals and not let them make the long march up to the United States or well have no other choice than to close the border and or institute tariffs. Our country is full. Steve there you can see once again is he mentioning in that tweet mexico, who a couple of days ago he said, you know, over the last four or five days they have been helpful in stopping people. Nonetheless, there he is taking another shot at him. Reminding them, you are our last line of defense, mexico, help us out. Meanwhile, when Kirsten Nielsen decided to write that Resignation Letter, she got no sympathy from democrats. Watch this. Says that Kirstjen Nielsen did not resign willingly. Basically we are getting into who broke up with whom. I guess i was hoping that maybe, finally she would speak out about the abhorrent policies that she has presided over. There is not a lot of sympathy here for her. It was secretary nielsen who said that it was not an intention of the administration to separated children from their parents. Nielsen has become the face of this child separation policy. Brian part of that reason with the separation, that was jeff sessions. She was forced to play damage control there to her credit, she did not point all fingers. People looked at that and then that was then attorney general. By the way, the visas that were increased yesterday, quietly over the weekend. H 2 b visas. Thats something that tim cook wanted for apple, especially. Steve i had just said that she did not get much sympathy from democrats, which is true. But that particular montage i just set up was about media reaction, my apologies. Ainsley lara logan commented upon it. She has been talking about media bias and you the American People can see through it all. Watch. This there is one set of people who are not fooled by any of it they lack the context very often. They lack a lot of the information to know exactly the extent of how they are being deceived and manipulated. But they know in heir gut. And thats the audience. Thats the viewers. Thats the readers. Thats all the people and length at breadth of this country whether they are democrats or republicans who are lining up to have this diversification right now. Who know that something is not right and thats why they are turning away from the news. And thats why theyre not watching. And thats why theyre frustrated. And thats why there is so little trust and faith in the media these days and responsibility and accountability begins with us. Brian do you really expect anybody watching whats happening hearing about 100,000 apprehensions knowing one out of every five get through. 75,000 the week before and thinking the president making up a crisis. Finally jeh johnson former Homeland Security secretary under president obama saying its a crisis. Why are the democrats not saying its a crisis . Who do i believe . Most people know who to believe. Congressman yesterday on fox news yesterday a democrat said of course its a crisis at the border. Somebody has to do something. Ainsley hand it over to jillian. She has headlines for us this morning. Jillian following a story out of california. Get you caught up on this. A suspected drunk driver is arrested and charged with murder in the death of a california Highway Patrol sergeant. Police say Michael Callahan crossed into the shoulder of the interstate crashing into Sergeant Licon who pulled someone over. He worked with the department 27 years. Colleagues saluting his body draped in a flag. Doctors and nurses bowing their heads as his body passes by. Family members in tears. The sergeant leaves behind a wife, daughter and stepdaughter. Chicagos warmest weekend of the year ends with at least 24 people shot, including four adults and two kids at a baby shower. 18 years old with a bullet wound to his chest and momma putting the pressure on him. Im telling the boy to just keep breathing. Jillian children critically injured. At least four adults were killed in this weekends violence. More than 420 people have been shot in chicago so far this year. American airlines extending its grounding of boeing 737 max planes until early june. The move impacts about 90 flights every day as boeing works to update a Flight Control system. American says this will give the company more time to rebook passengers and reduce lastminute cancellations. Max jets were grounded in the u. S. And around the world in the wake two of deadly crashes overseas. Thats a look at your headlines and we will continue to follow that. Ainsley if you are flying american, check your flights and emails and make sure they havent changed your flight. Steve meanwhile on this monday morning many 2020 democrats pledging support for reparations. Our next guest calls it pandering and says it wont work. You will hear from him next. Ainsley first here is Dierks Bentley and brandy carlisle performing travel and light at the acm awards im traveling light the right gear. Matters. Introducing the allnew 2019 ford ranger, its the right gear. With a terrain Management System for. This. A bash plate for. That. An electronic locking Rear Differential for. Yeah. This. Heading to the supermarket . Get any truck. Heading out here . Get the ford ranger. The only adventure gear built ford tough. Neighbors. Loved ones. Living with diseases like cancer, epilepsy, Mental Health conditions and hiv. Maybe youre one of them. But new medicare rules could deny access to the latest, most effective therapies. Therapies that keep them healthy. Are medicare cuts that save less than one percent worth the risk to millions of patients . President trump promised to protect medicare. We need him to keep his word. This is the family who booked the flight, who saved by adding a hotel, which led to new adventures, that captured their imaginations and turned moments into memories. With flights, hotels, activities and more for your florida vacation, expedia has everything you need to go. Would you sign the bill for reparations . Yes, i would. I already support that bill. When im elected president. Absolutely i would sign that into law. Of course i would sign it . I firmly support congresswoman jackson lees bill to create a commission to study reparations. Steve okay. Well nearly all of the 2020 democratic president ial candidates are backing some form of reparations. But our next guest says the support is simply more pandering for african africanamerican voters. Joining with us gianno caldwell. Thank you for having me. Good morning. Steve they think reparations are a good idea. What do you think is going to be politically here . Well, this is a scam. We have to be honest about it first and foremost they have no intention. If any of them were to win the election, they would never push for any reparations. What we do know from these guys is they want to show up a black base. Truthfully speaking if you look at any of my social media i posted a comment on there two days ago where 40,000 people agreed this is a scam. There was a lot of africanamericans that agree with this. The fact of the matter is the Democratic Party know they have no way of actually winning an election unless black folks come out and fully support them this time around. Donald trump in 2016 won over 8 of the africanamerican vote and when you look at africanamerican men it was over 11 . They dont have any policy prescriptions for what ails america and honestly President Trump has done some great work when you talk about the lowest Unemployment Rate for africanamericans. When you talk about the first step act. Now, what can they run on . They are losing White Working Class voters. And they are running them away. Donald trump is going to get those voters again. They are in a very problematic area right now. Steve all right. One other topic came up in iowa when Bernie Sanders was asked this toy town hall. Listen to this. I understand that in your home state of vermont that incarcerated people are allowed to vote. Would you commit to that on a nationwide scale. I think that is absolutely the direction we should go. You are paying a price. You mitted a crime. You are in jail. Thats bad, but you are still living in American Society and you have a right to vote. Steve okay, gianno, he says felons behind bars should be able to vote behind bars. What do you say . They have gone nuclear, 13 of country is africanamerican over 40 are in prison right now. They contain prison population. When you think about that, again, more pandering, no solutions to the issues that africanamericans truly have. Steve all right. Gianno caldwell join from us l. A. Early 3 20 thank you. Thank you. Steve still ahead on this monday morning, Kirstjen Nielsen is out as secretary of Homeland Security. Kevin mac lee hand is in. Mark morgan worked with him for years.

The United States is temporarily pulling troops out of the country of libya. The north african nation is on the brink of civil war with 21 People Killed near the capital of tripoli. Not known how many troops are stationed there or when they will go back and to where. They have been fighting isis and al qaeda militants while there the country of iran threatening to retaliate if the u. S. Designates revolutionary guard as a foreign terrorist group. The announcement could come as early as today. Iran is expected to add the American Military to its terror list if the u. S. Follows through on its. Stay tuned. Ainsley thank you, steve. Homeland security secretary kiss citizen nielsen resigning over the weekend and taking her place is acting secretary is customs and border commissioner Kevin Mcalleenan. Brian will this change anything . Our next guest worked for mcalleenan in 2014 and 2016. Will the new leadership help at the border . Here to weigh in former assistant director Border Patrol chief under president obama like mcalleenan mark morgan. Mark, does the change at the top change anything . Well, i think any time you have a change at that level. I think it kind of gives a jump started and maybe a new direction. And what i will say about kevin is he is extremely intelligent guy. I used to joining around he has lost more i points. Brings Border Security experience and very skilled at managing d. C. Politics on both sides of the aisle. Its a good feet. Some are being critical of Kristin Nielsen saying she wasnt ready for the job because her background is in cyber security. Tell us about mcalleenan tell us about his background and why he will be great for the job. He served as the Deputy Commissioner of cbp before he became commissioner. He weighs there on the ground floor and i was actually with him in a different capacity in 2014 when this influx and this crisis began of unaccompanied minor and family units. So he has been there on the ground floor and has seen this and been there every day working hard since 2014 through this crisis, from the start to where we are at now. I think he brings that unique perspective. Steve. Brian is he obama hold over able to win over the president. You say it doesnt matter who is at top if two people are in place. The flores agreement and the tbpra. Describe exactly what they are and how congress could change these two things quickly. Okay. So quickly the flores amendment basically what it does is mandates dhs by law to release kids within 20 days. So that means they come, in thats the half part of the catch and release. The other part that dbpra what that does is if you come in as unaccompanied minor if you are from mexico or canada we get to send you back. If you are from Central America we cant. We keep you. So, the flores settlement plus tbpra equals catch and release. Dhs, they cant do anything about that. Congress has to fix that those laws. Brian could they do that . Is there anybody trying to push this through . It doesnt seem to be a partisan issue on the surface. Yeah. Brian, thats the question. I dont understand. I dont understand why somebody is not putting that through to give dhs the authority to, you know, address the flores settlement and dppra. Thats a quick common sense fix. Ainsley when you release those children after 20 days you cant separate families, you are releasing the entire family, too right . Ainsley, thats exactly it. Thats where we are at. So it goes back. So when they try to apply consequences. Nobody, we cant separate families. So by de facto because of the flores. That means you grab a kid. You come in, you are released as a family, too. Brian when people say cages. They werent cages that was something happened in the obama years. I know you pushed back hard on that. To keep the kids safe and put something together quickly. And number two separating families sessions cracked down and said go by the letter of the law. Parents go back. Kids stay. Hence separation. So they quickly amended that, but they were just going by the rules that congress idiotically left on the books. Brian, thats right there. Everything you just said is absolutely the American People need to understand what you just said is absolutely correct. Brian mark, thanks so much. You bet. Ainsley congressman devin nunes taking action to hold leakers accountable now. He is sending criminal referrals to the doj this week. Brian dan bongino says its about time.

Lets bring in dan bongino, former secret Service Agent and police officer. He has to find a focus. Author of it spy gate the attempted sabotage of donald j. Trump. We hired you so that will be your focus. On marias show on sunday, devin nunes says im going to be announcing at looking criminal referrals to some people. Lets listen to what he told maria sunday morning futures yesterday. So we have been working on this for two and a half years, compiling information, right, as we continue this investigation. We couldnt really send these criminal referrals over without an attorney general in place. So were prepared this week to notify the attorney general that we are prepared to send those referrals over and brief him if he wishes to be briefed. We think they are pretty clear. But as of right now, this may not be all of them but this cleans up quite a bit. We have 8 referrals that were prepared to send over to the attorney general this week. Brian who is he talking about . Well, one, if you are following this characterization marias show on sunday has become a mustwatch tv because devin nunes always drops a bunch of bombs on this show. So its mustwatch. He is talking about a couple of things. There are a number of problems. These small group of people at the top of the fbi and doj who ran this spying operation. Illicit spying operation against donald trump. Break them down, devin nunes mentions this. Its a longer interview. In the interview he says that there was a conspiracy basically to lie in front of the fisa court there are two parts to that. Part number one is, remember, guys, if you go in front of the fisa court and swear that brian is a foreign spy or whatever it may be, you have to verify that information first according to a procedure called the woods procedure. The information wasnt verified. The dossier was a hoax. Second part of that is there may be exculpatory information out there. Think about, this guys, how bad this is. Not only did they put up their right hand and swear in front of a judge that the information in this dossier was a hoax, but the second part of it is they may have had information indicating that it was completely untrue. In other words, papadopoulos and page were entirely innocent and may have conspired to keep that out of feis court. That ifisa court. That is big trouble. Ainsley when he released the Mueller Report he said there was no collusion. No evidence of it. You still have democrats saying they know there was collusion and its in plain sight. Listen to jerry nadler and adam schiff. There is ample evidence of collusion in plain sight. But i think what we are talking about here is the difference between conduct that rises to the level of criminallality. Conduct corrupt and may not be criminal. There was in plain sight open collusion with the russians. Ainsley is there evidence in plain sight because of that trump tower meeting . Um, this may shock you, evidence of collusion is in plain sight. It is Crystal Clear with the clintons. Now, this is what i cannot believe with these two discredited conspiracy thirst acts. Number one why are they even allowed on Television Anymore adam schiff and jerry senate ler and eric swalwell. Im serious. They have lied to people over and over about collusion in plain sight and evidence. Guys, they have never ever produced. Why are well, they are not really serious. Cable outlets unserious still having them on the air. They are trying to be. This is the gulf these three. The evidence of collusion between the Clinton Campaign and russian sources is right in front of everybodys face obama and ukrainians reported on by john solomon for the last two weeks and also had people on this network, Catherine Herridge did a great report saying part of a set up tried to pin russian collusion on mike flynn, too. Collusion is real just with the democrats and not republicans. Thats why i cant believe they wont let this go. Its going to bomber rang in their face. Steve they are realizing it is starting to wane. Waiting for the Mueller Report. They changed the narrative to the taxes. Not really about collusion anymore. Its all about the taxes. The problem is they have switched the narrative a couple times. Started with he is a traitor. Then he was guilty of treasonous behavior. Then he was guilty of collusion. When that fell apart they moved to object destruction. Now that obstruction isnt working they will move on to some kind of financial collusion with the trump tax returns. This is all nonsense. Its just desperation. People trying to be serious on the media other Networks Call them and check them if you have evidence we are not putting you on again, mr. Schiff, unless can you actually produce it you are embarrassing yourself, your audience and everyone else in congress. Brian key on this is halper and mif mifsud. If Joseph Mifsud a russian asset is not in fact a russian asset and working with friendlies or intelligence people feeding it to the Obama Administration, the Obama Administration in a world of trouble. That is their whole case. Brian yeah, mifsud disappeared somewhere. Thank you, dan, appreciate it. Good to talk to you. Ainsley good to talk to you, too. Steve 20 minutes before the top of the hour.

Ainsley leaders there weighing Legal Options now after a judge ruled against their attempt to ban unvaccinated children from public places. Steve todd piro is live at the Rockland County courthouse in new york city with the next steps, todd . Todd steve, ainsley and brian good morning to all of you. Like you said, in a few hours the Rockland County attorney expected to be back here in court. All this after a judge said the countys Emergency Declaration was, quote misplaced. 30 day declaration barred vaccinated children from schools, houses of worship, and other public areas. Even kids with a religious exemption. This after Rockland County was hit with 167 cases of measles. As of last friday. In ruling against the declaration, the judge said the Measles Outbreak didnt rise to the level of an epidemic. But leaders here disagree. Saying the county needs to be proactive, which could include issuing another ban. This is a Public Health crisis. Its time sound the alarm. Yet, despite this increasing threat, reaction to the ban is still mixed. Have to get you kids vaccinated. And you are putting all these other kids at risk by not doing it and its not right.

So far only three states, mississippi, west virginia, and california require almost everyone to get vaccinated. Coming up in a few hours, we will talk to an individual here who works for the county who is going to tell us why getting vaccinated is so important and why they are fighting in court later today.

Keep in mind jason aldean also on stage a year and a half ago during that las vegas shooting. Nobody will ever forget that. Ainsley the awards took place in las vegas last night. Rebreba mcentire was hosted it. She didnt want to talk politics because she wanted to entertain. Steve it was very entertaining program. We have been showing you clips throughout the hour. Brian just when you noe knew it was going to be on 7 00 monday we find out a change at the top of Homeland Security. Thats where we go to a straight fox news alert. Kind of after her resignation, Homeland Security secretary Kirstjen Nielsen announcing overnight she will stay on a few more days vow ago smooth transition. Ainsley long time customs and Border Protection official Kevin Mcalleenan will take over as dhs chief. Steve Griff Jenkins with the fallout. He was in calexico, california with the president and the secretary just a couple of days ago. Griff hi, steve, ainsley and brian. Nielsen may have had the toughest job in washington because she was caught between a president who wants to crack down at the border and president unwilling to change laws become the driving factor behind waives of caravans of migrants. She tweeted she would stay on through wednesday. In a Resignation Letter she expressed frustration writing i hope the next secretaries will have the support of congress and the courts which have fixed the laws which have impeded our ability to fully secure americas borders. President trump tweeted meanwhile democrats swiftly hammering nielsen on the way out. While critical of her after the family separation fiasco. Speaker pelosi issuing this statement it is deeply alarming that the Trump Administration official who put children in cages is reportedly resigning because she is not extreme enough for the white houses liking. And house Homeland SecurityCommittee ChairmanBenny Thompson saying her tenure was a disaster from the start. Now mcalleenan takes over as the president signals a tougher solution for the border. Iis he a wellrespected border official in washington and no stranger to the job having been at cbp since the last administration. The question now, guys, can he survive in this fierce environment as these numbers keep growing. Cbp was set to release new march numbers today at preference. They postponed it wednesday. Thats when mcalleenan takes over. Could be a tough first day on the job. Steve no kidding. Axios is report not guilty last 15minutes that apparently as griff said this particular meeting yesterday was not on the president s schedule. But she, Kirstjen Nielsen actually took the Resignation Letter with her she had no intention of quitting but she was prepared if the meeting wept badly. She tried to race to put the letter out. Before she could put the letter out the president tweeted that she was leaving. There is a lot of frustration at the white house when you look at and, in fact, john bolton himself said the fact that the immigration numbers and the number of people who are trying to cross into our country illegally is skyrocketing, he feels is proof that her policies are not working. Well now, she is gone. Ainsley its a really tough job though because congress is not changing any of the laws. Steve right. Ainsley when these individuals are apprehended and put into these detention facilities, they are overflowing after 20 days the kids and their families have to be released because thats what the law says. Its catch and release. Look at these images. Brian listen, i dont know how much she is to blame. I know john bolton and Steven Miller were not in her corner. The president says she has to get tougher. She saw some improvement. He said some nice things about her in the past. If you read the Resignation Letter. There is no glowing review of the president like she said in the past. There is no glowing tweet that says what a great person she is and what a great job she did like Linda Mcmahon got when she left and had a chance to go to maralago at the end. Mark morgan joined us earlier. There is very few people that you talk to that knows mcalleenan better and the probable at the border better than mark morgan he joins us to talk about if this is going to work or not with the acting director. Any time you have a change at that level, i think it kind of gives a jump start and maybe a new direction. And what i will say about kevin is he is extremely intelligent guy. He was there on the ground floor and i was actually with him in a different capacity in 2014 when this influx in this crisis began of unaccompanied minor and family units. And, he is very skilled at kind of managing d. C. Politics on both sides of the aisle. So its a good fit. Ainsley tweeted out. I have confidence that kevin will do a great job. And everything that we have read about him. They are saying that he is in Good Standing with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle. He did work for president obama. His Service Includes serving as custom and Border Protection commissioner since march 20, 2018. Before that, acting he was the acting commissioner. Since trumps first day in office. And served in the cbp roles since 2001. He definitely has a lot of experience. Steve absolutely. There is some of his background. He is also an attorney. And after 9 11 he wanted to join the fbi. But, was recruited by the department eventually the department of home landing security. A couple of other names being considered according to the the washington post, ken cuccinelli, former Virginia Attorney general and also rick perry former governor of the great state of texas. Kris kobach is being mentioned but he would have some problems getting through confirmation. So he would probably simply join the administration. Brian heres the problem. This thing is so much bigger. The department of Homeland Security, which was thought up by Joe Lieberman and confirmed by president bush is just too big. The secret service feels like theyre overwhelmed. Theyre fighting terror. In charge of everything. These other names originally brought up as a border czar. I think that makes total sense if you are ever going to have a czar. I know president obama loved it this is what it points to you can be as tough as you want. The laws say if you are a kid and cross the border in 20 days once you stay you are free to go into the interior of our country. The tdpra say if you are from Central America can you stay. If you are from mexico or canada you have to go back. Find a way to we patron nice people like nic drag i cant and disoor like they do in mexico and canada and find a way to tell them go back. Parents are grabbing any kid. Sometimes theyre not parents. Coming across the border. Kirstjen nielsen or mcalleenan you can be as tough as you want. If you are going by the letter of the law which we do in this country staying and they are in. 125,000 people are now in the interior yflt country. Ainsley the president said with grill. Its a horror show, these people know how to game the system. They grab a child because you cant separate the children from their parents. The kids have to be let out because of the flores settlement after 2 days. And the parents go with them. Brian why cant congress do something . Steve have you got to change the law. The president can only do so much. Meanwhile a bunch of people on the democratic side who would like to be president. And yesterday, cory booker released his fundraising numbers since the two months that he has declared. He has only raised 5 million in the two months since he announced. It exceeded his goal. The average was 34 bucks. But he was beaten by the mayor of south bend, indiana. Look at that Pete Buttigieg as 7 million. 2 million more than corey, beto at 9. Kamala at 12 and bernie is leading the pac with 18 million thus far. Brian also i think its important too. They did a massachusetts poll to see who would win in massachusetts. Elizabeth warren not only is she not raising much money she is third in massachusetts. If you cant win your own state she is losing to Bernie Sanders and joe biden with all the turmoil that joe biden. You wonder how much longer both those candidates can stay. In. Ainsley i was interested in finding out what the average person contributes to a campaign and according to the press secretary for cory booker at least, his average online contribution is 34. Steve there was one thing i saw apparently one of the rules the democrats put together, democrats can get on the primary debate stage if they can have 65,000 donors from 20 different states including at least 200 unique donors per state. They will break down the metrics on all these things like have you never seen before. Bernie sanders was in iowa over the weekend when he was asked a question. The state of iowa has tried to figure out what to do with felons, should they be able to vote when they leave jail . The governor was going to tim reynolds was going to sign that and it was passed by the house but killed by the senate. Bernie was asked that question in iowa and listen to the way he answers it. People who have felonies should be able to vote. I strongly supported that in my state. What we do is separate. You are paying a price. You committed a crime. You are in jail. Thats bad. But you are still living in American Society and you have a right to vote. I believe in that. Ainsley you should vote if you are behind bars. Steve right, while you are in jail can you vote. Brian i guess everyone is trying to separate themselves just a little bit. Also Bernie Sanders has not given up his tax returns. That should be interesting to see the socialist has so many houses. Ainsley gee anngee gianno caldwell. Gone nuclear. Over 40 are in prison right now. They contain a prison population. So when you think about that again, more pandering, no solutions to the issues that africanamericans truly have. Brian of course talking about reparations. Steve what is interesting is there are two states right now where you can actually vote if you are in jail. State of maine and Bernie Sanders home state of vermont. Who knew . Brian 10 minutes now after the hour. Who knew that jillian was ready to give the news . Jillian i will think you knew that, brian and steve and ainsley knew it too. Brian i didnt know that was true. I could be tossing to nibble. Jillian lets start off with a fox news alert. A manhunt intensifies for a grouch armed kidnappers that abducted an American Woman on safari. Released unharmed after five days after the tour Company Reportedly paid half a Million Dollars in uganda. The guide is being criticized for not having a gun. The illegal immigrant charged with murdering a California Police officer is expected in court today. The suspect is accused of shooting officer singh during a traffic stop on the day after christmas. The alleged killer is originally from mexico and has known gang ties. Trump aides could soon find themselves having trouble getting a job. Immigration and civil Rights Groups have sent american ceos a letter urging them not to hire former Trump Officials involved in key immigration policies. Among those on the list you see them right there former white house chief of staff john kelly, outgoing security secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and press secretary Sarah Huckabee sanders. March madness will end by making history tonight. The stage is set for two teams battling to win their First Ever National title. Three seed texas tech and one seed virginia tipping off at 9 20 p. M. Eastern. Texas tech already canceling classes after 5 00 p. M. So everyone can watch the big game. Going to be exciting. Brian you got to go to bed early. There will be a firsttime winner. That will be cool for the first time. Steve that will be great. Ainsley one of my friends was visiting from the weekend she went to texas tech. She is soaks sighted. Jill gizelle you have a connection . Ainsley i have friends that went to uva both cool schools. Brian bobby knight went there too. Steve tomorrow we will tell you who would be. Michael burgess says now that secretary nielsen is out its time for congress to step up and fix the border crisis are we talking about change the laws . He has a solution which he will explain next. Teacher lets turn in your science papers. Tech vo this teacher always puts her students first. Student i did mine on volcanoes. Teacher you did . oh, i cant wait to read it. Tech vo so when she had auto glass damage. She chose safelite. With safelite, she could see exactly when wed be there. Teacher you must be pascal. Tech yes maam. Tech vo saving her time.

Im working to make connections of a different kind. Im working for beauty that begins with nature. To treat every car like i treat mine. At adp were designing a better way to work, so you can achieve what youre working for. My dream car. It turns out, they want me to start next month. She can stay with you to finish her senior year. Things will be tight but, we can make this work. Now. Grandpa, what about your dream car . This is my dream now. Principal we can help you plan for that. Brian President Trump announcing on twitter that christinKirstjen Nielsen is outs border secretary. Your reaction to the news we got last night with nielsen out, does that change anything . Oh, yes, of course it does. Now, certainly i thank her for her service. I think it was a tough, tough job and she did well in the job i think a change will be a positive aspect of this. It has been very difficult for secretary nielsen to come to congress and talk to congress. She eloquently lays out the things that need to be changed. You have talked about the things that need to be changed. But, unfortunately, when she gets into those congressional hearings, no one is listening to her. They are talking about they are talking past each other on childhood separations. Look, the border needs to be secured. Thats the job of the Homeland Security secretary. So im hopeful that the acting secretary will be able to lay that job up before the members of congress. We have got to get something done. Brian right. You are actually doing something instead of just saying it you are reintroducing hr 2049. What does that mean . Well, this bill is a bill that i had introduced before. In 2014, when it was predominantly the unaccompanied minors that were coming across, i recognize that it was costing the taxpayer quite a lot to keep kids in shelters for 30 to 60 days until they could be placed with families in this country. Deduct that amount of money from the foreign aid thats going back to the host country or the originating country. So the calculation then was 15,000. I have actually increased that to 30,000 per child because the length of stay has increased and its costing a lot more to take care of these kids in shelters. There is, what, 14, 15,000 children in shelters right now. The taxpayers footing the bill for that. Makes no sense then to ask the taxpayer to send money back to the home country in foreign aid. Those countries need to step up. They need to do the job. There is things only they can do on the ground that would mitigate this process and cause it to reverse. Brian right. But we have already cut off aid to those countries and many of the aide goes to the organizations not only to the governments already. This would show some action. In addition, mike, do you know anybody that would go any democrat that would go along with there . Thats going to be the challenge. Right now the rhetoric im hearing and what i am hearing in my committees and what is being discussed is people want no borders. The democrats want no borders. They really do favor just having a region rather than a border. And let the free flow of goods and people come just traverse that area. Clearly a country needs borders. Youve got to if you dont have borders, you dont have a country. And the president said that i agree with him very much. But, the rhetoric that im hearing on the hill is one that is not in favor of strengthening Border Security. You saw that with the barrier argument. It took a massive amount of effort on the part of the president to get the dollars that he needed to secure and put a barrier on the southern border. And its so critical, you have been there. You know how important that is. Brian i just go back to what mark morgan said. He used to run thing at the border. The flores agreement and tbpra which allows kids to come here and stay indefinitely is a huge problem. So, thats an attraction, shut off that magnet. Congressman, at least you are putting something forward and reintroducing what you put out in 2014. We will see where this goes. Thanks so much. Great. Thanks, brian. Brian these five heroes bravely served our country overseas. Now they are on an important new mission to help our veterans at home. Their story is next in god we trust living the dream and never giving up and what we believe in were allamerican i heard there guwere fleas out here. R .

Living with diseases like cancer, epilepsy, Mental Health conditions and hiv. Maybe youre one of them. But new medicare rules could deny access to the latest, most effective therapies. Therapies that keep them healthy. Are medicare cuts that save less than one percent worth the risk to millions of patients . President trump promised to protect medicare. We need him to keep his word. Steven could only imaginem 24hr to trenjoying a spicy taco. Burn, now, his world explodes with flavor.

Researchers at two universities dates ranking ontime arrivals, baggage bumping passengers and consumer complaints. Steve, down to you. Steve there you go. Thanks, ainsley. Nearly 100 soldiers from u. S. Army 82nd Airborne Division reunited and hosted a tweet hosted by the Independence Fund at called operation resiliency. I always told you throughout whatever you were doing. Leaders told you, you told yourself, suck it up. Push on. Just keep driving on, man. Hey, your knee hurts . My knee hurts, too. Keep pushing. But then when you get out, who is there to tell that you . Do you know what i mean . What i want you guys to understand is its okay to not be okay. Steve its okay to not be okay. That was just one of the many messages heard this weekend in North Carolina. All to provide a lifeline and combat the high rate of veteran suicide in our country. Here to tell us more are five former members of the Bravo Company second battalion, 508th parachute infantry regiment of the 82nd Airborne Division. Front row on the left major adam armstrong, retired Sergeant MajorDonald Mcallister right next to him back row on the left left retired sergeant nic armen its dares and hal and retired Sergeant Jared lemon. Great to have all of you here today. Major armstrong, lets start with you. Operation resiliency, the idea was, you know, after you leave your deplot, you just go, everybody goes some place else you have a lot bottled up that you never tell anybody except the people you are with, right . Thats correct, sir. Operation resiliency is obviously a joint venture between the v. A. And the Independence Fund. And through them, we were able to bring that company back together and so where there might not have been the ability to really reflect upon or understand some of the things that happened, nine years later these guys are able to talk about that we think that was incredibly healthy. Major mcallister what are some of those things when you are home or elsewhere, far from the field of battle, that you have got going on inside and you just dont feel comfortable telling anybody . Yes, sir. I think a lot of it as you get away from guys, you know, your buddies and everything that structure that you have, daily, you kind of get lost and you get like this whole i hole in your heart. Once that hole is there, its never really filled but to get your brothers back together, who shared that same experience and to be able to kind of talk to them about a specific event that happened, or talk about just life in general. Anything to reconnect is amazing, sir. Steve nick, what about you at this weekend in North Carolina . How were you able to reconnect . It was great just seeing all these people we hadnt seen, you know, in nine years. And just get together, exchange those stories. Reconnect and i mean, at the very least, what i got out of it was just being amongst some good friends. Steve alex, how about you . What i saw it was amazing to see the guys when we did our first v. A. Session they were like skiddish. They didnt want to get into the talking and watching when they did open up, the first guy that broke the ice and then everybody started opening up freely and talking about it, it was amazing how quickly it just flowed and how comfortable they were being able to admit their problems. Steve right. Sergeant lemon, before you went, you might have been apprehensive but after you left, how did you feel . It was an amazing experience. Just being able to get back and connect with all theist guys with shared experiences. Not everyone fully understands what i know all these guys they understand. Steve major armstrong for people watching right now, they would like to take part in Something Like this, whats the first step they take . So the first step would be reach out would be to reach out to either the Independence Fund, particularly farardo can get them in contact with the right people. And then their unit will be vetted for qualification and hopefully they will be able to do the same thing we were able to do. Steve the whole point is to keep you guys together at home just as you were when you were in iraq or afghanistan or wherever you were. Yes, sir. I mean, to bring the guys back together and, you know, to see them day one, its like it was just yesterday they were all together as a unit. I will tell you a testament to it, the command sergeant in the army i was in it is hard to get 100 guys together for anything on the weekends or at night. But, to get 100 guys to come from all over the country to come back, i even had apprehension about it myself. Because, you know, its as a leader in charge of all those guys, its so hard to know that you are going to have to face them again after all these years. Steve sure. I think the big thing about it is all of these guys come together, some have some issues. Some have other issues. But they all come together and they bond again and what we want to do is we want to keep this bond going. We want to keep in contact. Steve indeed. Hopefully its not 9 or 10 years before they see each other again. Steve sounds like a fantastic success this weekend. Thanks for your service and coming to tell us your story. Thank you. Steve if you would like more information reach out to the Independence Fund. Org. All right. Guys, thank you.

Down in florida. Good morning to you. Good morning all. Great to be with you. Steve great to have you as well. Stacey abrams down in georgia had this observation over on another channel about georgias heart beat bill. Listen to this. You should not have to worry about your ability to control your body autonomy because the governor has pushed an abominable and evil bill that is so restrictive. Its not only bad for more rattle and humanity. Its bad for business. Steve what the heart beat bill does, governor, after a heart beat is detected with the fetus, then you cannot have an abortion. And that has been legislation down in georgia. I was in georgia saturday night for an event at truth Mcconnell University up in cleveland, georgia. I just want to say the people of georgia particularly prolife biblebelieving people are so grateful for Governor Kemp for recognizing once a baby has a heart beat its hard to deny that is a human life. Human beings have heart beats. Blobs of proto platform do not. For Stacey Abrams to make this comment that its perfectly okay to kill the heart beat of a baby because its good for business. I find that appalling. I find that disgusting. Its sad, its sick. And i hope that somewhere among democrats who even, perhaps believe in abortion, they recognize that the science on this, and they love to talk about science all the time. Then lets talk about the science of biology and stop the madness of killing babies with a heart beat. Surely we are civilized enough to think that thats just flat out evil. Brian right. She was talking about the economy because hollywood says maybe we are not going to shoot any of our movies there in georgia. Because of this. And Alyssa Milano, the acting legend the next generations mayora meryl streep 100 actors and actresses would sign the petition. Yeah. Im sure that will just destroy georgias economy. Their economy does not depend on Alyssa Milano and sean penn. Thank god it doesnt because they would be in trouble anyway. Look, hollywood goes where they can make movies at a profit. They go where the costs are good. They will go to georgia if they want. To say if they dont, i assure you the economy of georgia will be better off because other businesses might want to go there where they dont think that there is an open season on unborn children. What kind of people think that its civilized and sane behavior to just arbitrarily take the lives of the unborn when its clearly a human life. This is what people have to understanding what theyre advocating and what they are begging for is the opposite of the song you just played thank god for this wonderful gift. They are saying lets take this gift and destroy it. Ainsley church talking about faithful individuals or concerned about whats going on when you talk about that subject. Also, israel, the election is coming up tomorrow. Benjamin netanyahu, is he in jeopardy here because apparently the final polls are showing that this race is extremely tight. Well, it is tight. And every race he has ever had has been tight. I have known Benjamin Netanyahu for many years. He is an incredibly strong leader. The courage that he showed going to the house floor, speaking against the iran deal was historic. One of the most powerful speeches i have ever heard. But, more importantly than his speeches, his actions. He has led israel to a place of safety and security. He is one of the few people i know on earth who can equally sit down with Vladimir Putin and donald trump. He can talk to World Leaders of every country. Right now, to be honest with you, israel needs him in the cockpit. They need an experienced hand. But i will tell you who else needs him. We need him. We need him because he is the tip of the spear to iran and im hoping that the people of israel will recognize this is no time to put an inexperienced pilot in commands of their flight. Brian beto orourke thinks he knows him enough to call him a racist. Thats absurd. The last thing netanyahu is a racist. Orourke needs to learn a little about israel and about the Prime Minister. I would be happy to take him if he would like to go. I have been going for many years. I was there two weeks ago with the Prime Minister. Let me tell you something for beto orourke to say this is embarrassing shallow and ignorant. And he truly needs to get schooled on israel and on netanyahu but the last thing that he should be calling Benjamin Netanyahu is a racist. Thats absurd. And beto ought to apologize for it. Steve lets see what happens. Governor, thank you very much. We covered a lot of territory today. Good to talk to you guys. Take care. Brian go get them, governor. Good to talk to jillian. Jillian always lovely to talk to the three of you. Good morning to you. Lets get you caught up on this story that were following. The top doctor who investigated princess dianas death suggest her injuries should not have killed her. Dr. Richard shepard writing in a new book her specific injury is so rare that in my entire career i dont believe i have seen another. Princess diana had a tear in her vein deep in her lung. The injury was small but tragically in the wrong place. Senator mitt romney a Trump Administration critic calling out attempt to get the president s tax returns. Either the democrats are just playing along his handbook which is going after his tax returns through a legislative action is moronic. Thats not going to happen. Jillian democrats asked the irs to release six years of the president s tax returns. A School District is testing a g. P. S. System to keep track of kids going to and from schooling. Initials who are tornville, wisconsin giving student cards that they must swipe before getting on the bus. Can get a real lime location of each student through a website. The system will reportedly cost the district 40,000 bucks each year. Take a look at a few photos this week. I had the honor of speaking at a gala for Police Officers killed in the line of duty. Blue lives matter nyc hosting third annual arch angel gala honoring the lives of nypd detectives who were ambushed and killed in patrol car in 2014. Their widows were on hand in addition to officers from around the country. The money raised will fund a scholarship for a fallen officer fund to help families in need. Thats joanne, often a guest on our show who is the president of Blue Lives Matter. Gregg thats great. You were able to emcee. I was a guest speaker. Nervous, speaking to a crowd Law Enforcement officers. Speaking to crucified widows. Families who have lost their loved ones out there protecting us. It makes you stop and think. And there are the widows there. Ainsley the one on the left officer lous wife had his baby after he passed away. Ainsley the jillian they were so grateful. Brian Blue Lives Matter came out of black lives matter. Do you think this will get bigger and bigger . Jillian 400 people in attendance on saturday staten island. Ainsley great of you to do that. Jillian thank you to joey for asking me. It was a great event. Ainsley joe biden faces accusations of inappropriate behavior. Why is he joking about it . Watch this. I just want you to know i had permission to hug lonnie. [laughter] ainsley one of president obamas former advisors says thats not going to help end the controversy. Is he going to join us live next. And a sack of clothes free and easy down the road i go free and easy down the road i go. Free and easy down the road i go makes it beautiful. State of the Art Technology makes it brilliant. The visionary lexus nx. Lease the 2019 nx 300 for 359 a month for 36 months. Experience amazing at your lexus dealer. Ainsley former Vice President joe biden taking the stage and joking about the recent allegations against him. I just want you to know i had permission to hug lonnie. [laughter] by the way he gave me permission to touch him. [laughter] brian historical. Do theshistoric hysterical. Do te past the croffer. Former advisor to president obama. The Vice President is not officially in yet. Does had help or hurt him those two jokes on friday. I know he is trying to be light about the situation. The audience liked it. But if i was his Campaign Manager i would have told him to not do that pivot deflect and move on. Most important thing, brian, we spoke about it last week, enter the campaign. If you want to really get have that podium and you want to be the next president , its time to enter. Steve i dont know if you saw the wall street journal over the weekend but peggy noonan wrote joe, dont do it, whatever you do, because your party will kill you. There is no question that in the primary its going to be tough because the party has shifted left. But, you know, we have been speaking for weeks that the most important thing for us as democrats is to beat President Trump and thats the number one thing. And joe biden polls the best and we saw during the midterms he was the best surrogate. That being said with this wide open field, no one is really at 20 . Ainsley do you think he still has a chance even after the allegations . Absolutely. This is not going to be disqualifying. Each candidate has issues that are going to come up. And i think its better that they speak about it now with 300 plus days to iowa and 600 days until the president ial. Brian shows he can still blow himself up without a script thats the big worry for jobsd. We use the word on this show discipline about 50 times with my good friend the Vice President. Im a big fan. I do think when he enters the campaign he is going to have to talk about where he is on real issues. And with the progressive movement, you know, literally having the bully pulpit, you have to really speak on where you are. I know we will mention what what president obama said. Where you are on Climate Change and healthcare and immigration, gun reform and all the great issues. Steve perfect set up. Here is the former president in berlin on saturday. One of the things i do worry about sometimes among progressives in the United States maybe its true here as well is a certain kind of rigirigidity and we create a circular firing squad. When that happens typically the overall effort and movement weakens. Steve so is that what we are seeing circular firing squad in some cases . As a mesko the Obama Foundation which was hosting that, you are not going to be surprised that i agree with him. Yes, its absolutely true that you cannot have a purity test. That you can be for healthcare as a right but you dont need to be for single pair or universal healthcare or medicare for all. You can say lets extend the public option. So i think that right now were being pushed to this idea that we have to stay in certain lanes. You know, when you are the president of the United States, you are for 350 million plus people. You have to be the president for all. Brian robert, talk to the candidates, they are the ones who are changing. They are the ones afraid of not saying medicare for all and reparation. They are the ones that have to have a backbone. We have that privilege i guess i will call it, the privilege to sit down and talk with them. I absolutely say that you need to be for gun reform and Immigration Reform and healthcare as a right. I dont know why we have to be so ideological that we have to go so far left where we know a lot of those things cant actually be executed. Steve but its the primary. Primary, exactly. And we dont know where its going to go. Ainsley thats right. Thanks so much, robert. Thanks for having me on. Steve big part of the democrats 2020 platform. Healthcare is a right. Healthcare is a right. It has to be publicly funded. Medicare for all. Thats just the bottom line. Steve robert, they werent listening to you. One country already has universal healthcare is letting people go blind, apparently, because they have to ration eye surgery. Is that what democrats really want to happen here . Were going to talk about that. Brian can you say Great Britain . There was a time in its weakened state. Its innovative. With pronamel repair, more minerals are able to enter deep into the enamel surface. The fact that you have an opportunity to repair whats already been damaged, its amazing. I think my goto toothpaste is going to be pronamel repair. Mno kidding. Rd. But moving your internet and tv . Thats easy. Easy . easy . Easy. Because now xfinity lets you transfer your Service Online in just about a minute with a few simple steps. Really . Really. That was easy. Yup. Plus, with twohour appointment windows, its all on your schedule. Awesome. Now all you have to do is move. That thing. [ sigh ] introducing an easier way to move with xfinity. Its just another way were working to make your life simple, easy, awesome. Go to xfinity. Com moving to get started. Ainsley as 2020 democrats push their medicare for all agenda here in the United States. Thousands in britain are reportedly left to go blind because of eye surgery rationing under their single pair system. Is that what medicare for all would look like here. Here to weigh in on this is a healthcare expert and president and cofounder of g. D. P. Advisors. Great to have you here. Thanks for being with us, seth. Good to be with you, thank you. Ainsley you are welcome. Tell me whats happening over there. I understand thousands of elderly patients are going blind. Who do they determine who gets the surgery and who goes blind . Well, listen, this should strike fear into anybody who is thinking that medicare for all might be a good idea, right . Because whats happening in the United Kingdom is in effect they are running out of money. They just dont have the money, according to the head of nhs to cover all of the things that are necessary for their citizens. Ainsley so is this what medicare for all looks like . It could be. And, you know, the most terrifying part of this, the plan proposed by senator sanders is actually more restrictive than the plan they have in the United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom citizens can still go buy private insurance or pay cash for certain procedures which would cut the waiting time dramatically. In the United States what senator sanders has proposed wouldnt even allow for that. Ainsley with your experience, which candidate is the one that you line up most when it comes to healthcare . President trump. [laughter] you know the Trump Administration is at least focusing on the real drivers of the costs of healthcare. And Alex Azar HealthHuman Services doing a great job identifying the overall cost drivers and doing stuff to bring transparency into our system. We need to maintain a capitalistic free market system in healthcare if we want to drive innovation and continue to deliver healthcare to all of our citizens. Ainsley something that is the number one issue new england a lot of americans. Thank you so much, seth, for being with us. Thank you. Ainsley you are welcome. More on our top story this morning. Dhs secretary nielsen is out and Kevin Mcaleenan is in. We are live in washington next. U active and wellrested. Because hey, tomorrows coming up fast. Natures bounty. Because youre better off healthy. Cancer, epilepsy, Mental Health, hiv. Patients with serious diseases are being targeted for cuts to their medicare drug coverage. New government restrictions would allow Insurance Companies to come between doctor and patient. And deny access to individualized therapies millions depend on. Call the white house today. Help stop cuts to part d drug coverage that put medicare patients at risk. Southbound, southbound, southbound brian a night off, carrie underwood, she hosts these. Ainsley she had a baby. Look how beautiful she looks. Steve American Academy of Country Music. 54th edition. Ainsley reba hosted it. She done it a long time. I dont want to be political. Were here to entertain and have some fun. Steve good idea. Brian we will discuss that throughout the next hour especially what happened sunday night. This is fox news alert. After her abrupt resignation, Kirstjen Nielsen announced overnight she will only stay on the job a few more days, vowing a smooth transition. Steve she will hand over the reins to the department to the long time customs and border official, Kevin Mcalleenan. Brian griff, did you see this coming . Reporter i didnt see it coming. She is out that is all that matters now. Caught between the president cracking down at the border and a congressman willing to change the laws that had become a magnet drawing waves of Central American migrants. Nielsen announcing her departure after unscheduled meeting at white house, expressing frustration in a Resignation Letter, i hope the next secretary will have the support of congress and courts and laws which impeded our ability to fully secure americas borders. President trump thanked her for her service over twitter and added im pleased to announce, Kevin Mcalleenan, the current customs and border secretary will become acting sector of dss. I have confidence that kevin will do a great job. He is no stranger to the job and he worked closely with obamas former border chief mark morgan had this to say. It will give a jumpstart, and new direction. What i will say about kevin, he is extremely intelligent guy. Over decade of Border Security experience he is skilled managing d. C. Politics on both sides of the aisle. So its a good fit. Reporter democrats were quick to hammer her on the way out. Speaker pelosi issue this statement, deeply alarming that the Trump Administration official who put children in cages is resigning not extreme enough for the white houses liking. The question can mcalleenan survive in the new environment as the numbers continue to get worse. The new numbers come out on wednesday when mcalleenan takes over. Steve she did persuade mexico to allow the people allowing for to apply for asylum stay in mexico. That was pretty good. The president and top team growing frustrated at number of Illegal Migrants who have been trying to bet in the country. John bolton said publicly regarding her dismissal or resignation, however you want to depict it the fact the immigration numbers were going through the roof, essentially exhibit a, her policy no the working at southern border. Ainsley she is in a tough position, everyone said this is one of the hardest jobs in the administration because congress has not changed the laws. The laws allow the kids and families to be released from Detention Centers and released into america after 20 days. Brian Stephen Miller is behind this. He is pushing the president to fire the head of immigration and citizenship. They think people are issue. Ron vitiello who was supposed to be the next i. C. E. Director, the president pulled that on friday. He thinks the people are the problem. I think it is the laws. Well find out sadly unless Congress Moves to act the only people that are under control, only countries under control will be mexico and canada. Central america will say, my country is a mess. I have got horrible leaders in nicaragua. Guatemala cant get out of their own way. El salvador a third of their population come here already. Until their countries get set is, until our rules change i dont know who will make a difference. Steve after they pulled the nomination of ron vitiello. She was fighting for him. Were not going through with this, she was upset about that. 24 hours later shes gone. Apparently took the Resignation Letter to the white house according to axios. She had no intention of quitting. She wanted to be prepared. The meeting went very badly. The president tweeted a number of times in the last 24 hours before her, tweeted to the punch. Ainsley more apprehensions and captures at southern border in many years. Border patrol amazing. Country has is full. System is broken for many years. Democrats must agree to fix loopholes, no open borders, crime, drugs. Will close southern border if necessary mexico should apprehend all illegals not make them do the long march to the United States. The or we will have no other choice than to close the border and or institute tariffs. Our country is full. Brian they have to do it the legal way. It is pretty apparent the media would just beat up on secretary neal send. They were nonstop and they were yesterday. Listen. A source says that Kirstjen Nielsen did not resign willingly. Basically were getting into who broke up with whom. I would hope finally speak out about the abhorrent policies she presided over her. There is not a lot of sympathy for her. Secretary nielsen said it was not intention of administration to separate children from their parents. Nielsen has become the face of this child separation policy. Steve apparently over the last six months he told aides he wanted to fire her. He was steamed about the whole caravan thing before the election. But look, it is a tough job she has. But now, theyre trying to figure out how to go forward. Tom homan, who is a hardliner, he is acting i. C. E. Director for a while. He had this observation with steve hilton regarding her departure. We need to at least respect her decision. You have to respect somebody that takes on a job like this. This is a 24 7, 365 job. Especially as she said in her letter, half of congress dont support what she does, or even support immigration law. There has been a lot of mixed messaging out there. I first want to thank her because she did serve her country. She did a pretty good job but her hands had been tied in many ways. The president obviously is frustrated what is going on at the southern border. He is definitely pointing in a different direction. Brian can make a lot more money in the private sector. Cant go out to dinner with her family. She was harassed and screamed at on regular basis. Goes up to capitol hill, gets yelled at again. She has taken a job from john kelly who was remarkably effective as a general, marine general who just retired. He goes to chairman of the president s staff and then all of sudden nielsen takes over. Kelly was a big fan of hers. He knows what leadership is about. I think she is getting a bad rap. Ainsley she is on the job 16 months. That is something you care about. You also care about our economy. There is a great oped in the New York Post today, and talks about the president how many jobs he created especially in the manufacturing segment. He added 480,000 manufacturing jobs since the election. Dont you remember after he was elected paul krugman, the economist, said nothing his policy can do to bring back those lost jobs. President obama said it would take magic for that to happen. Watch this, remember . He will bring all these jobs back. How exactly are you going to do that . What are you going to do . Im going to negotiate a better deal. What, how exactly are you boeing to negotiate that . What magic wand do you have and usually the answer is, he doesnt have an answer. Steve so the postop ed is jumps job creating magic wand. They write in part, it is not often that a president delivers exactly what he promised for the u. S. Economy, but this one has. March saw nonfarm payrolls grow by 196,000 we announced on friday. The bureau of labor statistics reports a major rebound from the slow down in the first two months of this year. Wages grew 3. 2 over the last 12 months. Markedly faster than inflation. Unemployment was 3. 8 in march, and has been at or below 4 13 straight months. The gains are coming in part, millions who gave up looking for work, were no longer counted as unemployed have rejoined the workforce. Brian as don mcgahn said over the weekend, my main task with the president of the United States was reduce regulations. He came up with the tax reduction. That works. He is pushing the fed to not raise rates and discount them. Among people supporting the president , even mitt romney is giving credit doing conservative things any conservative president would do to a greater degree. Keep an eye on the china trade deal. Even the Chinese Media reporting it is getting close. The president says were close to an epic deal. Can you imagine just the rumors of a successful deal was putting the stock market on jet fuel. Can you imagine if somebody like that comes through and the usmca gets passed now in the hands of nancy pelosi who doesnt want to give the president a win, sadly. Steve there is going to be a deal. The question will it involve intellectual property and china stealing our ideas. If it does that would be a jackpot. Ainsley all right. Ten minutes after the top of the hour. Jillian has more headlines for us. Jillian good morning. Lets start with this, the illegal immigrant charged with murdering a California Police officer is expected in court today. The suspect is accused of officer ronil singh. He has known gang ties. Chicago had 24 people shot including four adults and two kids in a baby shower.

You only love me for my big sunglasses and my tony llamas. I got the hell out of oklahoma. Lambert and shelton divorced after four years together. They shared a home in oklahoma. Back to you. Steve loved her for her big sunglasses, and tony llamas. Brian rare for divorces end badly. I think they usually go smooth. Steve usually not on the stage. Ainsley right. 12 minutes after the top of the hour, congressman devin nunez taking action to stop leaks in washington by sending criminal referrals to the doj. High level officials within the doj and the fbi were misleading the American People and the court. Is justice going to be served or is justice going to be denied. Brian well the Senate Follow suit . Well ask senator Chuck Grassley. He will most likely answer next. Steve more from last nights show. Brooks and dunne performing, brand new man im a brand new man in its weakened state. Its innovative. With pronamel repair, more minerals are able to enter deep into the enamel surface. The fact that you have an opportunity to repair whats already been damaged, its amazing. I think my goto toothpaste is going to be pronamel repair. Wgreat tasting, hearthealthys the california walnuts. Ever . So simple, so good. Get the recipes at walnuts. Org. What sore muscles . What with advpounding head . Advil is. Relief thats fast. Strength that lasts. Youll ask. What pain . With advil. Make those eight referrals this week. So the two on conspiracy, the one on global leaks and five that are more specific on lying, leaking, and misleading congress. Ainsley that is congressman devin nunez firing that warning shot signaling criminal charges could be possible amid his investigation into alleged abuse by the doj and the fbi. Steve joining us now to weigh in republican senator from the great state of iowa where i was born, Chuck Grassley who sits on the Senate Judiciary committee. Senator, good morning. Everything is pretty good in iowa. Steve that is exactly right. That is where i was born. Senator talk a little bit about this. We hear eight criminal referrals. Does that mean mr. Nunez has a list with eight different names and has Different Things that they feel these people did that were against the law . I dont know for sure but i presume so. I made similar referrals as a result of people lying about they had information during the Kavanaugh Hearing and all a member of congress can do, think there is something wrong. It ought to be looked into the by the Justice Department and the Justice Department will make the final decision of whether or not nunes is right but he got into this thing very, very deeply and actually did a Great Service for the American People by making sure that a lot of facts that otherwise would have been covered up or if Hillary Clinton had been elected president none of this stuff would have been known. So i just congratulate him on being a a patriot person, following through, even though he is in the minority making sure justice is done. Ainsley senator, democrats continue to push to see the president s tax returns. What do you think about that . Will that happen . Listen youre asking me as chairman of the finance committee we could have opportunity to see those too. I dont want to see them. I am not going to request them. Youre asking me in regard to trump, i want to tell you that i look at that not from the point of view of trump but what is legitimate for congress to do looking at peoples tax returns. It is not to know who the tax returns are. It is supposed to serve a legislate tiff purpose. In fact the privacy of your tax returns are guaranteed by section 6103. We want to make sure what lbj did, what nixon did, or what obama did, boeing after conservative organizations that the irs is not used for political purposes. But if you need to write legislation, then maybe you need some information from people that are avoiding taxes or using tax loopholes, or maybe not finding a way to get out you want to change the laws. That is the only reason you should be asking for tax returns. Steve otherwise it looks like the irs has been weaponized. Number of republicans said that over the weekend. Thank you, senator. Goodbye. Steve coming up. 20 here in new york city. Indiana, south bend ainsley mayor pete they call him buttigieg. Steve he is slamming evangelicals that support President Trump.

Ainsley we have quick headlines for you, starting with a fox news alert a live look in outer space where astronauts are making upgrades to the International Space station. American erin mcclain is working with a canadian astronaut on a six hour mission. They are working on the robotic arm outside of the iss. American airlines will ground boeing 737 max planes until early june. It impacts 90 flights every day as boeing updates a Flight Control system that should reduce last minute cancellation. Max jets were grounded in the United States and around the world in wake of the two deadly crashes overseas. Check your emails to make sure they havent changed any of your flights. Steve in other news, democratic hopeful Pete Buttigieg doubling down his attacks against president s faith and taking aim at trumps religious followers as well. Hypocrisy is unbelievable. Here is something who not only acts in a way not consistent with anything i hear in scripture, we see the diametric opposite of that in this presidency he decided to pretend to be prolife govern accordingly which was good enough to bring many evangelicals over to his side. Brian pretend. Ainsley here is react Fox News ContributorRachel Campos duffy. Rachel, what is your reaction. This is fundamental misunderstanding of frankly catholics and christians wanted. Eight years of an antichristian agenda on the obama side, christians and evangelicals and catholics decided we want ad fighter. We dont need a savior. We already have one. The idea was who could fight for the policies, prolife on israel, Parental Choice in education and really Poverty Issues which he claims evangelical christians dont care about, which is false. I would say, listen this is a guy who is on the record as a supporter of lateterm abortion. He also as mayor south bend, indiana. Blocked a, like a Pregnancy Crisis Center from opening up in his hometown. I would say he needs to look in the mirror, take the policy log out of his own eye before judging President Trump who frankly i know his personal life is scandalous and colorful. I will take it any day over the week over mayor pete because i know he wont deliver on any of the policies that i like. Brian robert as book on winston churchill, i may not be the best practitioner, im the best protector of the church. That is how youre defining President Trump. He worked out a punch list with evangelicals, knocked out almost everything they requested. As well as Supreme Court judges as well. One of the things mayor pete said, theyre hypocrites, evangelicals and catholics are hypocrites voting for President Trump because he doesnt care about prisoners and immigrants and the poor and i would say false on all claims. The poor, the poor dont want handouts from the government. They want financial independence. I think this economy actually delivered on that. Two prisoners who delivered on criminal justice reform. Immigration, very debatable, democrats want to do nothing for the system, exploiting and leading to sexual abuse of women coming up to the border, not very christian in my view. Steve primary is so person fall people are questioning whether or not or not the president even believes in god. I would say the left really what mayor mayor pete is doing in this regard. They love he is calling him the porno president. They love theyre bringing up the colorful past. Shows a fundamental misunderstanding of what christians really want in an environment that they perceived as very antichristian and hostile to their values under obama. I mean can you imagine donald trump doing to the Little Sisters of the poor what obama did . No. But i can see mayor pete and the whole list of democrats doing that to the sisters of the poor. So again substance versus, versus style. I think he is very mildmannered. If you lift up the hood on mayor pete you will see aoc. He is radical. His dad, was marxist professor. He put as mild face like obama on some pretty radical policies. Ainsley thank you so much. Thank you for having me. Brian he is raising a lot of money. He is. Brian two minutes before the bottom of the hour. Remember when democrats used the irs to target conservative groups. Totally improper. Criteria were used to select organizations applying for c4 designation for further review. Brian right. Might want to dip the microphone. Are they weaponizing the agency again to get President Trumps taxes. Ainsley first, marin morris and brothers osborn performing all my favorite people.

Ainsley it comes after a judge ruled against their attempt to ban unvaccinated children from going to public places. Steve todd piro live at Rockland County courthouse where he spoke to the county attorney. He is 100 miles north of new york city. Todd . Reporter thats right, the county attorney told us the Health Department will be a part of that meeting when it happens sometime later this morning. You recall that the 30 day declaration kept out unvaccinated children from schools, houses of worship and other public areas. Even kids with a religious exemption. In ruling against the declaration said this outbreak did not rise to the level of an epidemic but here is the county attorneys response to that. The judge feels that there is not enough people yet who are sick. Were trying to prevent people from getting sick. Once you get sick it is too late. This is more than about religious beliefs. This is being allowed to have those religious beliefs. Being healthy to have those religious beliefs. If you dont want to get an vaccine, you are an american, you have some choices. At least take yourself out of the population for the timebeing, for the short time being because there are people who cant get vaccinated. They are six months old, people with cancer, immunocompromised cant get vaccinated. Being in the population youre putting them in danger. Reporter this year there have been 387 measles cases in 15 states. Currently 17 states allow exemptions for those who object to vaccinations on personal, moral or other grounds. One other option for Rockland County to appeal the judges ruling. If that is the course of action, those appeal briefs and motions could be filed within a few hours from that decision. We reached out to the attorney for those people who objected to the Emergency Declaration what their plan of attack is. We have not yet heard back. Back to you. Steve todd, question for you, are there parents who are reluctant now to let their kids go out in public . Reporter the parents that we spoke to, or that the individual for fox news spoke to, we saw the sound earlier, there are people who dont want their kids to go out and you can understand. Were not doctors. Were lay people. When we hear something about sort of antiquated disease we thought was gone, youre scared. You want your kids to be protected. I think that is the issue here. Steve indeed. Rockland county, todd piros location. Thank you very much for the live report. Ainsley jillian has headlines for us. Hello, jillian.

It caused a fiveminute delay in the matchup between angles and rangers. Brian. Brian brian democrats accused weaponizing the irs against conservatives. They were totally improper criteria were used to select organizations, applying for c4 designation for further review. Those organizations predominantly were conservative organizations. Brian oops. Now democrats demanding President Trump to release his tax returns. Is the irs being weaponized again. Mark meckler, was targeted by the irs himself, democratic strategist with us kevin chavous, is that what the party is doing again, this time on the president . No. I believe there is a clearly a seth purpose for requests these returns. There are several proposals in front of the ways and mean committee. Other commits, that would change the way the irs or congress looks at loopholes, the way taxpayers are getting around certain provisions. So this is nothing to, for the ways and Means Committee to request to get these returns. It will happen. The question whether it should be made public. That is another debate. Definitely needs to be a legitimate purpose for that which i think there will be, but they will get the returns, i dont think there is any question about that. Brian Mick Mulvaney begs to differ. He says they will never get it. Kevin says they want to find out more about the tax system by getting president s taxes. Mark, does that sound good to you . It sounds outrageous. This is exactly what the irs did to the tea parties. They targeted people based on their political affiliation. Brian it worked. Absolutely worked in 2012. By the way the irs had to pay a settlement in litigation brought by our organization of over 3. 5 million. This is what democrats are doing again. There is no legitimate purpose for this. If what kevin said was true, they would be seeking a broad swath of taxpayer records. Theyre targeting the president. There is no law that requires the president to turn over his tax returns. Democrats found another way. Brian there is a provision, kevin, that lets the chairman of ways and means request the president s taxes, correct . Right. That provision, we have to realize why that provision was created because we had situation back in the 1920s that had a lot of parallels with this situation where there was teapot dome scandal which, really was the impetus for creating this provision but also the fact that we had a treasury secretary, andrew mellon, who had conflicts of interest. He still retained business interests while serving in the Government Role which is is very similar to what President Trump has done with the trump hotel, his different golf clubs. There is a reason for us to be skeptical about his holdings and think maybe there is a conflict of interest and thats why it is legitimate for to us look at his taxes because that would reveal where those conflicts are. Brian the president hears that, mark, says this is president ial harrassment. Well it is. You notice kevin just switched the story originally because they were considering changing irs regulations, changing the way they do things. Now it is about the president s conflict of interests. This is excuse. Brian we have to remember they can get your tax returns, my tax returns, tax returns of conservative organizations under this provision. If they want the president s tax returns, what they ought to do is change the law and require president s or president ial candidates to turn over their tax returns, not use this arcane thing passed in 1924. Brian kevin, ways and means chairman, if they were to get the taxes have to keep it secret. Can you blame the administration or president if they doubt that would ever be kept confidential . I cant blame them for thinking it would be released. Probably quite easy for them to release them, because they could cite the different proposals and saying hey, we want to close some of these loopholes. Lets look attacks returns of President Trump who has been one of the best at exploiting loopholes. He said it himself. He takes pride in that. It would get released. Other cases ajudicated in Southern District much new york, ag james said she would go after the documents as well. At some point, may not be soon but we will see the returns. It is a matter of time. Brian yeah, they might run out of time, taking it to litigation. Lawyers are pushing back. Might well into 2020 when this thing is up in front. Kevin chavous thanks so much. Mark meckler, great job. Thank you. Brian meanwhile, 13 times before were finished. Next were taking a walk on the wild side. We have a penguin.
