Being the u. S. Attorney in sdny will forever with the great honor of my professional life. We should note a new administration cus hairly does replace all or if not most of the u. S. Attorneys when taking office. We have Fox Team Coverage and the rest of the days political headlines. Garrett alternativeny on the effort to push through the Republican Health care plan, Kristin Fisher at the white house, but we begin with the breaking news and rob schmidt here in studio with me on the dismissal of the u. S. Attorney. Tell us more, first of all, about this customary move. We shouldnt be shocked. Reporter you shouldnt be shocked, but its kind of turning into a he said she said kind of thing, a Senior Administration telling fox news that baa rah rah is blowing this out of proportion, he and 45 other obamaappointed u. S. Attorneys out of jobs today. The white house asking for resignations. But baa rah rah now says he was fired. And a tweet from this afternoon he says i did not resign. Moments ago i was fired. Being u. S. Attorney will forever be the greatest honor of my professional life. Preet bharara was appointed by president obama back in 2009. He appeared to be in Good Standing with President Trump after being told to is tick around stick around, is what he said in late november after heating with the newlyelected president at trump tower. After that meeting, he did speak to reporters. We had a good meeting. I said i would absolutely consider staying on. I agreed to stay on. I have already spoken to senator sessions who is, as you know, the nominee to be the attorney general. Im, he also asked that i say stay on, so i expect that ill be continuing to work in the Southern District of new york. Reporter so that Senior Administration official telling us that was his account of what that meeting was, basically insinuating we never said you were going to stay forever. Julie certainly. And i think he kind of wanted this, hes getting a lot of attention. He had some major victories. Reporter yeah. Nobody can deny he was good at his job, he was successful. He was popular near new york. A bit of a swamp drainer himself, asking a couple serious political heavyweights in recent years. Senator Chuck Schumer said friday while its true that president s from both parties make their own choices for u. S. Attorney positions across the country, they have always done so in an orderly fax that doesnt fashion that doesnt put ongoing investigations at risk. They ask for letters of resignation, with but the attorneys are allowed to stay on the job until their successor is confirmed. Priest baa rah rah was investigating mayor de blasio and also looking into new yorks golf, andrew cuomo, for possible bribery, some of his aides. The Administration Says the First Assistant will take over and the white house saying all these investigations will continue, everything will be fine and basically saying bharara was making more of it than needed to be made. Julie all right, thank you, rob schmidt. Well, the man accused of breaching the white house grounds appear anything court later this afternoon. In fact, these sketches were released just moments ago of jonathan train as he was ordered held without bond and a hearing was actually set for monday. Thats as questions surface tonight over how the secret service actually allowed this breach to happen in the first place. And its not the first time. Now, this suspect was accused of scaling the fence and then accessing the south grounds of the white house while the president was inside. He responded today during a lunch with members of his cabinet and leadership team. Listen. Secret service did a fantastic job last night, i appreciate it. Secret service did a fantastic job. It was a troubled person. The secret of service was fantastic. Julie Kristin Fisher picks up Team Coverage from here, shes live at the white house tonight. So, kristin, who is the suspect, and what do we know about a motive . Well, you can often learn a lot by what this person had on them at the time that they were caught, and in this case the intruder was carrying a book by President Trump and a letter that hed written to him. And when secret Service Agents asked him, hey, what are you doing here, he said that im a friend of President Trump and that i have an appointment. So today President Trump called him a troubled individual. His name, jonathan tran, a few hours ago he was charged with entering and remaining on restricted grounds while using or carrying a dangerous weapon, and according to court documents, that weapon would be two cans of mace. What makes this case especially unnerving is just how close this person got to President Trump. If you take a look at this map, you can see mr. Tran was caught right outside the south portico entrance, and that entrance leads directly to the executive residence which is where President Trump was when all of this went down. The last time a fence judgementer got this far was Omar Gonzalez back in 2014, he made it all the way inside the white house with a knife. That incident led the secret Service Directors resignation, it also led to a congressional investigation and, ultimately, a new plan to put up a bigger fence by 2018. That fence will be 11 feet, this current fence is only 6 feet and 78 people have been able to jump it since 991. 1991. Julie . Julie this is one of the first weekends that President Trump has stayed in town. Normally, he goes to his estate in maralago. Tell us how the president did spend his saturday after having this bit of a scare last night. Reporter well, he did not spend it playing golf, but he did go to Trump International golf course in virginia. And he spent about two hours holding what he characterized as a working lunch with part of his cab net and several members of his senior staff. The president says they talked about the military, the economy and the House RepublicansHealth Care Plan which President Trump says is coming along quite nicely. Another topic that might have come up and this is a big one the House Intelligence Committee is now asking the white house for hard evidence to back up the president s claim which was made one week ago today that former president barack obama ordered the wiretapping of phones inside trump tower during the election, and they want that evidence by monday. Now, so far the white house hasnt offered any evidence to either the rest or the public the press or the public, but this committee might have a bit better luck especially since the entire reason they are invest to begin with, all these wiretapping allegations, is because this white house asked for that investigation. Julie . Julie all right. Kristin fisher, thank you so much. Well, the february jobs report is out, and it shows far more jobs added last month than expected, 235,000 with unemployment dropping to 4. 7 .

[applause] Julie Garrett tenney has more from washington tonight. So, garrett, what is the white houses strategy here . Reporter well, Administration Officials have said this is really where President Trump is in his element, as a negotiator in and deal maker in chief. Its really the art of deal. And one of the most important parts of negotiating is leverage. And for President Trump ever since he entered the world of politics, that leverage has been the backing of the American People, and thats why the white house is going on the road and making its case directly to the voters. Particularly in states like kentucky where the president won in a landslide. Today Vice President mike pence aims to capitalize on that overwhelming support by pitting the Health Care Plans critics against the president and putting them in the same boat as the states former democratic governor. Now, i know that not every politician this kentucky supports our plan to repeal and replace obamacare. I know your former governor, steve bashir, has been defending obamacare all over america. And he might even have something to say about my visit here today. And i welcome the debate, i really do.

Julie republican infighting raising new concerns about the fate of the gops plan to replace obamacare. The House Freedom caucus speaking out against the bill. Thats a group of conservatives which, they say, doesnt actually go far enough in repealing the Affordable Care act. Critics say although each side has their differences, they all want to keep their Campaign Promise to americans. Lauren blanchard has more from washington. Reporter hi, julie. Well, the Vice President made his way to kentucky to make his Health Care Sales pitch even as a group of 40 plus House Freedom caucus members are calling the gop Health Care Plan obamacare by a different form. Heres what those members say are their main concerns. They believe a refundable tax credit to help individuals purchase insurance is a new entitlement, that obamacares Medicaid Expansion remains until 2020 and obamacares socalled cadillac tax on highcost insurance plans returns this 2025. And some representatives say house leaders arent being honest with the white house on what congress memberses really think. We have to keep our commitments to the American People. We promised that we were going to repeal obamacare. The house leadership plan is not a repeal of obamacare, it keeps substantial parts of obamacare this place, it copies or repackages other parts of obamacare. Reporter a number of high profile senators have also promised that the bill as it stands would be dead upon arrival to the their chamber. But chairman of house committees that visited the white house on friday say despite disagreements, they are unified in the belief that obamacare needs to go. If you hear nothing else i say today, this is the most important one there is so much more that unites republicans than divides republicans on this issue. Repealing these awful taxes, those subsidies, those mandates that have hurt our local businesses, we unite behind. The reforms that the American People asked us to do, we are ready to the go, and the worst thing we could do is hit the pause button and and continue obamacare and broken policies that are hurting our people. Reporter theres still a long road ahead for this Republican Health care bill. It will head to the Budget Committee this coming week and then the rules committee before the house floor. Julie . Julie thank you. And now to the president s controversial travel ban. The federal judge in seattle who halted the original ban says hes not ready to rule on the latest version because of procedural reasons. Well, the revised ban blocks new visas for people from six predominantly muslim countries and brings a temporary stop to the u. S. Refugee program. Now remember the original ban involved seven countries, that seventh run, iraq, now taken off the revised plan. The judge says that motion or a complaint needs to be exilfiled to be filed before he can weigh in. Well, the state of washington and minnesota argue that secs of the new order sections of the new order have the same effect as the original, and the federal government just cant unilaterally change a courts previous rule, so stay tuned to the revised travel ban. And it actually prompted some americans to take to airports this protest as you probably remember almost daily, and today the American Civil Liberties union held a nationwide training event to help people know their rights when they are marching.

Julie im julie banderas, the Trump Administration making a u. S. Attorney step down, but the manhattan prosecutor is not going quietly. Priest bharara was one of 46 leftover obama appointees whom attorney general Jeff Sessions asked to step down. Pretty customary, right . Bharara says he was fired. Here to talk about it, judge jeanine pirro, why is he making such a big deal out of this . This happens in every administration when they take over the white house. Because instead of taking what he does seriously, hes taking himself seriously. Look, this guy has a big ego. Priest baa hard rah is no different than any other United States attorney, and every one of them serves at the pleasure of the president. Period, end of the story. Bill clinton fired all 93 in one fell swoop through janet reno. They do it all the time. He, however, is under the impression that he is different and, in fact, julie, yesterday they were all notified, those remaining 46, that they would be asked to step down. Julie right. And he then sends an email and says me too . Me too . Not me, im priest baa hard rah. Julie yeah. And they said, yeah, you too. So he decides to make it an issue and saying im not going, the president is going to have to fire me. As if youre the first attorney general or United States attorney to think youre entitled to hang in there. You are not. And so this is kind of the left saying, oh, our cases are going to be affected, and justice is going to be affected. Im amazed they havent said the russians arent affected in this thing, you know it, julie . [laughter] hes got to go. But hes using the word firing because that is a word that the president never used, that the United States attorney general never used. Hes trying to pump this all up. Julie yeah. Well, a Senior Administration official tells fox news, basically, that he may be mulling a run for governor. That doesnt vise me. Julie he talks about that no matter what else i do or how long i live, that this job will be the greatest job he ever had. Hes almost hinting at his next step. It almost seems like its a political ploy. Well, you know, first of all, let me say this, being the United States attorney in the Southern District of new york is without a doubt the top prosecutors job in the country. Julie right. The Southern District in new york is the premiere district. It is the place in which you go there to all kinds of heights. This is no limit to where you can go from there. So i think what he should have done is he should have been a gentleman, like all of the others before him and ill talk about this on my show tonight and simply recognize that you serve at the pleasure of the president. Now, he comes out after a trip to trump tower, and he say, oh, you know, i have been sad if id asked if id consider staying, but you know what . That doesnt matter. Things can change on a dime, and you serve at the pleasure of the president. Hes not making friends, and think about this, julie, if im going to hire this guy, im a little worried about hiring him because hes not a guy who goes quietly, you know . As an attorney or as someone whos a member of a law firm, is he going to make a stink every time someone lets him go for real, genuine reasons . Julie the real reason why these attorneys do not stay where is their loyalty . What president would want to keep these u. S. Attorneys this their administration . Its not done. Obama didnt do it julie nobody does this. Did you ever hear to the victor belongs the spoils . Well, this is an example of it. I think hes trying to make this about himself julie its embarrassing. Im embarrassed for him. The giants who have come out of that prestigious, you know, impeccable office. And, you know, people say, oh, hes got a great record, he is this great crime fighter. Well, you know what, julie . They all are. Julie he is a great crime fighter, but unfortunately, now his reputation is tainted because now hes gown to be remembered for this. He did it to himself. A sore loser julie right. Didnt want to go. Thought he was more important than the office itself. Hes not, and hes going to learn that. And he politicized it, and shame on him. And make no mistake, there are hundreds of United States attorneys and assistants who are on top of their game and step in at a moments time. Julie justice with judge janine tonight at 9 00. You have more to say . Yes. Oh, that was nothing. Julie shocking [laughter] well watch that show at 9 00 with judge jeanine. Thank you so much. Thank you, julie. Julie syrian president assad calling on the President Trump administration to do more in the fight against isis.

General jack keane saying the success of the u. S. Strategy to defeat isis comes down to syrians defending their own territory. What is the end state, certainly. We have the capability to deteat any enemy thats holding onto territory, certainly. The United States of america and the United States military will do that in conjunction with our allies on the ground this, to be sure. But the United States is not going to occupy portions of syria. We may maintain a base there, but we need syrian arabs to occupy their own territory, and that is part of the challenge that were facing here. Julie meanwhile, dozens killed this twin explosions near shrines in damascus. So far no one has claimed responsibility for the attack. John huddy has more from jerusalem.

Julie and on the other side, peaceful protests in the netherlands, proturkey demonstrators gathering outside that consulate. Police boosting their presence to match the growing crowds there throughout the day. Well, there are some serious questions tonight about just how President Trumps initial pick for National Security adviser made it through the vetting process. This coming after the revelation that retired general Michael Flynn was actually working for a Foreign Government during the trump campaign. As a torn agent. Chief Foreign Agent. Chief washington correspondent james rose aren has more. Reporter two days after former National Security adviser Michael Flynn filed new paperwork retroactively registering himself as a Foreign Agent of turkey for consulting work he did during the campaign and transition periods for a dutch company, the Associated Press reported that flynn had alerted lawyers for thenpresident elect trump about the possibility that he may shield to register as a Foreign Agent. The white house contended the matter had been handled appropriately. We trust people to fill out the forms that theyre required to do so this an honest and legal manner. And in this case, he retroactively filed the forms he was supposed to do, but we adviced him to do what the legal and proper thing was, and thats the right thing for this administration. Reporter flynn was forced out of the top spot after it was revealed that he had misled Vice President pence about meetings flynn had had, again, during the transition with russias ambassador to the u. S. Appriseed by fox news of the retroactive filing by general anyone, once the head of the Defense Intelligence agency, Vice President pence appeared unfazed. Disappointed by the story. The first i heard of it, and i think it is an affirmation of the president s decision to ask general flynn to resign. Reporter yet, the vetting process led to his second filing this week and points out the deficiencies of the Trump Administration in filling the subcabinets 4,000 jobs, some 1100 of which require senate confirmation. President trump is behind, he does not have his full team on the field. Hes at 18 confirmed. But prior president s havent done all that much better. It really is a crazy system. Reporter Senate Democrats have openly boasted of their success in slowing down confirmation of the president s cabinet nominees, but with that process nearing completion, Top White House officials seem to understand the to onus is now on them to find the president s remaining staffers. Theyre going to happen, and were working with Senate Leadership to make it happen. Reporter Elijiah Cummings drew attention to a letter he sent to Vice President elect pence on november 18th raising questions about general flynns work on behalf of turkish interests. Aides to the Vice President told me the letter never made it above the staff level to mr. Pences hands and that general flynns white house job was announced the day that letter was sent.
