Immigration the focus of his reelection campaign. We learned this afternoon the head of the secret service is leaving. Over the weekend Kirstjen Nielsen said her last day will be wednesday. John roberts joins us from the north lawn with what is behind the shakeup. The president s frustration with sky reading, Legal Immigration that is behind many of the changes of the department of Homeland Security, a shakeup he hopes will help make changes on the southern border. A tumultuous 10year is coming to an end, Kirstjen Nielsen took the high road as she left for one of her final days at the office. I sure the president s goal of securing the border and i will continue to support all efforts. President trump has waxed and waned and his support but felt it was finally time to make a change. In choosing customs and border chief to replace her, President Trump is signaling that Border Security is his top priority for the department. Officials from Barack Obamas time as president all agree that this is a crisis situation. Democrats were not kind to her on her way out, but the real target was President Trump and their immigration policies in a statement Chuck Schumer same when the radical voices arent radical enough for President Trump you know he has completely lost touch with the American People. Her resignation was the first of many changes do, the department. This afternoon the white house announced the head of the secret service was also asked to step down. Hell be succeeded and may by james murray, the current head of the protection agency. Because of statutes the acting deputy secretary claire grady will have to step down to allow him to take over. More changes are likely, driven in large part by the president s domestic policy chief Stephen Miller who last week was given total jurisdiction over immigration policy. As the white house engages in some administration cleaning, it is stepping up the political battle over the president s tax returns. Chief of staff Mick Mulvaney telling democrats, they can forget about seeing them. Never and nor should they. That is an issue that was litigated during the election. New York Democratic state senator filing legislation that would allow new york tax authorities to share tax returns with congress. The public has a right to know whether their president s interests are impacting the decisions that he makes. Love money democrats support him, some say he should make good on what he said during the campaign. He said he was happy to release his return so i wish you would do that. I see the democrats playing along his handbook which is going after his tax returns to a legislative action. On immigration, San Francisco judged blocked the ministrations policy of sending asylumseekers from Central America back to mexico while their cases are adjudicated. The judge that he would hold off on that ruling until friday to give the white house a chance to respond to his order before actually putting it into effect. Bret john roberts, thank you. As leadership at the secret service is changing there are developments about a breach of the president s winter escape. The chinese woman who was accused of gaining admission illegally to his Maralago Club will spend at least another week in jail. She appeared at a hearing in florida and we are learning exactly what she was caring when she was stopped. Phil keating was at that hearing today. The mysterious chinese woman who allegedly light her way into maralago and District Court in palm beach, all to learn whether she will have bail granted or denied. Calling 32yearold woman a extreme flight risk, they shared evidence gathered in this case. Items that could appear innocent or highly suspicious. Prosecutors told the judge this is what they found inside her hotel room. A thousand dollars in cash, several credit cards, a radio device, nine usb drives, five some cards and a fifth cell phone. When they rested her she was caring for solo phones, one laptop, when external hard drive and a thumb drive which contained malicious software. She is charged with making false statements to a federal officer and entering restricted property. A former expert tells us he believes this was a chinese spy. The fact that she was in the location at that time is absolutely no accident at all. It is no doubt in my mind that it is some sort of an intelligence operation and potentially in operation that may have been sanctioned by either the Chinese Government or the intelligence service. After two hours they granted motion to have the bond hearing continue next week so that someone from china can be here to assist her. As for that malware drive, when someone tested it he plug it in and he said immediately it began to install fouls in a very out of the ordinary way, something he had never seen. He stopped to prevent any further corruption. She remains in federal custody and she will be right back here in federal court on monday. Bret phil keating, thank you. A maryland man allegedly inspired by isis is accused of plotting to drive a stolen uhaul truck into pedestrians at national harbor, the Tourist Destination outside of washington. Court documents say he wanted to plow through a crowd of people and they say he was prepared to die for his cause. Oversee is tonight u. S. Forces in afghanistan to say three American Service members and a contractor have been killed in a roadside bombing near the main american airbase in that country. Three american soldiers were wounded in the explosion near the airbase and a receiving medical care. The taliban is claiming responsibility and this comes as u. S. Officials are currently engaged in peace talks with the taliban. He Trump Administration as ending a deal in the meantime allowing cuban Baseball Players to sign contracts directly withl organizations. Cuban players will be required to cut ties with our National Program before signing with the american team. This move reverses an Obama Administration rules allow the major leagues to pay the Cuban Baseball Federation a release fee equal to a percentage of each cuban players signing bonus. The Administration Calls that a garnishment of wages by a government entity. A major Foreign Policy move tonight by the Trump Administration concerning iran, comes with many implications on potential complications. We will hear from the secretary of state mike pompeo live in just a moment. First, rich edson. And unprecedented escalation in the ministrations campaign against iran. The United States designated their Islamic Revolutionary guard corps as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. They are a legitimate military organization. This is the first time the u. S. Has designated a part of a government as a Foreign Terrorist Organization and it allows the administration to criminally charge though supporting them. The irg c has a force of 100,000, an army navy and air force. It administers the lipstick missile program, manages businesses and organizes militant groups across the middle east. Multiple u. S. Defense officials tells fox news some Senior Pentagon leaders are an easy over concerns with putting American Forces and the region at risk. Iran classified the command as a supporter of terrorism. Administration Officials Say attacking the financing safeguards American Forces. The biggest danger is the expansion of the revolutionary guard across the middle east. Officials say they are watching increased fighting in libya. The u. S. Military announced it had pulled all of its troops outside of libya is forces allied to the commander attempt to take tripoli from a government. From sanctions have been fighting for control before he was overthrown and killed in 2011. Secretary mike pompeo said the u. S. Opposes the offensive and wants negotiations to resume over libyas political future. As for the measures against irans irg c, these hip departments as they take effect in one week. Bret rich edson at the state department, thank you. Lets get some additional insight into the situation. Mike pompeo joins me laugh tonight from the state department. Thank you for joining us. Its great to be with you. Bret you are the set up, we know what you said today about how important this moment is that no one should be surprised by it. However there are some people inside the pentagon we are told, senior military officials who are surprised by th it. They fear could mean harm by u. S. Troops by a rock. Your to that . We just call the reality of what it is, they are a terrorist organization we have not designated them. We are always doing everything we can to protect every american soldier. Effect of the irg c, they have killed over hundred american soldiers, so you can have peace and you cant have stability and security in the middle east without weakening the Islamic Revolutionary guard corps and that is what our sanctions are aimed at doing. We are confident, this increased pressure will save american lives and create more stability, more peace and security throughout the middle east. Bret you know the iraqi forces, the militias are tight with the iraqi army. U. S. Troops obviously work with both of them frankly. How will they distinguish and will this become a complicated problem . It was a complicated problem one obama entered that disaster is deal. We had a long conversation when i was the director of the cia, it was complicated long before this morning. What we are trying to do is reduce the complexity and takedown this malign activity that the clerical crypto grants are engaged in to change their behavior in such a fundamental way and we can be safe all across the world uncertainly and iraq and the middle east. The head of the irg c, he has by all accounts a bad character and has led all kinds of attacks. Are you saying that he now is equated to lets say the head of isis. In u. S. Policy perspective . Yeah, he is a terrorist. Bret is a country we have a policy to target him or capture him . He has the blood of americans on his hands. As does the force that he leaves. America is determined each time we find an argument, an individual that is taking the lives of americans kudos responsibility, President Trump studio and we have made tremendous progress in this administrations first few years to reduce the risk that any american be killed ever again. Critics including the iranians say this move had more to do with the israeli election tomorrow that i did with u. S. Policy. Your response . We have been working on this a long time and ive been working on this a long time. It took a lot of work to make sure we had all the facts right and we had everybody United States government have the right place we could announce this. It happened today because that was the day we are ready to make the announcement. Bret i want to talk about libya quickly. Another moved by the general launching and offensive on tripoli, your sense of the situation in libya and could there be sanctions heading that way . We have watched movements, malicious around tripoli and into the southern part of tripoli. We have urged all the parties to solve this and solve our disputes. We think that is the only way this can be resolved, this will be resolved through a force of arms, no way that will take place. There is a u. N. Process and we have been a part of that. The general has been a part of that and we urged them to stand down and move back to the negotiating table so that we can get a political resolution. You know the history of libya. The fractured nature of the place and the absent political resolution. We will continue to help fighting and chaos. It is not in americas best interest and so we are urging all the parties to engage in conversation so we can get a political resolution. Bret i want to return to venezuela, will there be more efforts against the cuban government for supporting the venezuelan Nicolas Maduro regime . They seem to be not budging despite actions from the u. S. And around the world. It is the cubans that are providing the security. That has to has to be embarrassing if you are a venezuela general. A part from that, the cubans need to understand that he is a lost cause, it is not going to happen. His days are numbered and the need to get on the right side of history. We will continue to do all we can to encourage the cubans to take on board that understanding, stop supporting him and allow the venezuelan people to have the democracy that they deserve. Bret we heard from the Obama Administration that his days were numbered but we didnt know the number. He is still there. We are hearing that venezuelans not recognized leadership days are numbered too, what do you put the number at . I dont have the number. We know that the venezuelan people will ultimately demand these situations are different. He controls a small fraction of syria today, he worked at the Trump Administration has done to deny him the capacity to rebuild his nation, the guy who believes he won with the truth is the middle east is in a much more stable and much better place today than it was when president obama was running the joint. He left the Syrian People in a bad place. Millions of displaced persons under effort to take down the caliphate and too great an opportunity and a process and they are yielding real results. Bret back to cuba for a second. It is the Major League Baseball move more effort to pinch them . Yep. Speed went okay, cut and dry. Yes, it is. It is very important to get that part right. The cubans are the folks who are providing the support, along with the russians and venezuela. We will do everything to pull them apart so that people can have what they deserve. Bret two north quick things. Since the weekend, the homeland secretary has resigned, Kirstjen Nielsen. Para ben moore cabinet shakeup moves, people leaving that in any Administration Since woodrow wilson. Your sense about the people moving in and out of this administration and what that means to somebody sitting at home . Im not sure about your data. I have a chance to speak with her, i wish her well. This mission done at the border is incredibly important and you have to make sure we have the laws right and i urge every member to help us so that we can do with the American People are demanding, became sovereignty around our border. Bret do you think the family separation policy is going to change along the border . I will leave that to the department of Homeland Security. Our role, the state departments role is to work with elements in el salvador, guatemala and in mexico so they can better secure their borders and keep individuals from making this track up and through mexico which is very dangerous and resulting in real risk here. Bret i would be remiss if i didnt ask you these last two things. Have you rolled out running for senate . I have. Bret mr. Secretary, we appreciate your time. Thank you. Bret up next, democrats react to the resignation of the Homeland Security secretary and on the trail, heres what some of our affiliates are covering tonight.

I will talk with the headman at nassau shortly. Right now the headquarters as the leader among declared candidates for the democratic nomination comes up with what some might say a radical way of expanding his target demographic. Peter doocy tells us about Bernie Sanders and his latest plan. It is a campaign trail tradition for them to court voters at coffee shops, but candidates could to start stomping in a cellblock. If inmates could cast ballots from behind bars. If you are still living in American Society and you have a right to vote. He is the leader of the pack and says he wants to keep it clean. L not wage any personal attacks on anybody running for the democratic nomination. What is imperative is that we all come together to defeat donald trump. Tim ryan went home to ohio to officially launch his president ial campaign and targeted to specific parts of that a swing state that helped trump a sale to victory in 2016. The valley is either up or we are getting up northeast ohio is either up or we are getting up ohio is either up or we are getting up a quieter Campaign Announcement was made by mike gravelle, he doesnt want to won. His campaign is about trying to earn different donations so he can qualify for a dnc debate and try to pull the field left the drop out. Every other candidate is still trying to go the distance including Pete Buttigiegs who described coming to terms with his sexuality. If you had offered me a pill to make me straight i wouldve swallowed it before you attempt to give me a sip of water. He launched into an unprovoked act on his former governor, the vice president. Speaking only for myself i can tell you that if me being gay was a choice, it was far above my pay grade. That is what i want my pants to understand. He had a positive working relationship with him. Even sang in 2015 that he holds him in the highest personal regard when somebody asks mike pence to react. Bret thank you stocks are mixed today and the dow lost 84 on the s p 500 gained three to extend its winning streak to eight days, the best in a year and a half. The nasdaq was up to 15.

When insurance is affordable, its surprisingly painless. Bret tonight the president s new attorney general is preparing for his first unofficial crossexamination on the mueller report. William barr is going to capitol hill to talk about money, finances, but Catherine Herridge tells us the reality is likely something much different. Days before the expected release of the mueller report, the general will testify on tuesday against the budget but lawmakers are sure to press william barr on what will or wont be public. We expect him to do his job right and show how ridiculous the democrats are being in this. This has gone way past oversight, this has overreached. I think the attorney general will expose that. While he is obligated under the law to shield grand jury material, classified information as well as individuals not charged in the probe. A senior wants him to bypass those rules. We have a right and congress has a right to the entire report with no reductions whatsoever so we can see what is there. The president s lawyer said he wants more publicly released, not less but he slammed democrats accusations. It is up to the attorney general. I am a lawyer and i realize that democrats are exploiting the fact that ag is in a difficult position. Publicly chairman to indict special Counsel Robert Mueller to testify the week of april 22nd during the spring recess, this business is too important to wait. I urge you to do the right thing, follow the law ended by the council to testify. Missing republicans that he knows firsthand that barr has taken a hard look at the russia probe and its origins. He believes it was very unprofessional and he cares about the Reputation Department of justice. The republican on the House Intelligence Committee says he is not ready to make each criminal referrals as early as this week for conspiracy. Congressman devon nunez tells fox news the investigation focused on the genesis of the fbi probe and whether the surveillance warrant was lawfully obtained. Bret thank you. Israelis have a big decision to make tomorrow, major ramifications on u. S. Foreign policy. Prime minister is up for a fifth term and he is facing his toughest opponent in years, correspondent troy gangsta set that up for us tonight from jerusalem. Is really Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu strolled through the main market today talking to voters. He is up against his former chief of staff of the blueandwhite party who also spent the weekend campaigning. We will not let him be the largest party. Israel is expected to see one of its tightest elections, amid major scandals. In february is rails attorney general announced plans to indict the Prime Minister on bribery and corruption charges. Weeks later he saw his name is doing across papers is a story broke that the iranians hacked his phone. He has relied heavily on support from the president of United States. President trump has spoken extensively about his relationship with the Prime Minister, decisions such as moving the embassy to jerusalem and recognizing that as part as israel. Today trump to clear the Iranian Revolutionary guard as a terrorist organization giving him another won just hours before the polls open. This hasnt stopped democratic hopefuls such as beto orourke from weighing in and saying that in order for the relationship between the u. S. And israel to be successful, it must transcend partisanship and must be able to transcend a Prime Minister who is racist. He went on to say that he has sided with the far right, racist party. In a matter of the Winning Party and candidate will have to work closely with the u. S. Government to rebuild strong bipartisan support of israel and implement the Trump Administration and the peace plan. Bret thank you. We will have full coverage of that. When we come back, the nasa administration, Jim Bridestine from the space symposium here in Colorado Springs on the future of americas space program. Biopharmaceutical researchers. Driven each day to pursue lifechanging cures. In a country built on fostering innovation. Here, they find breakthroughs. Like a way to fight cancer by arming a patients own tcells. And a new therapy that gives the blind a working gene so they can see again. Because its not just about the next breakthrough. Its all the ones after that. [kno king] memories. What we deliver by delivering. How do you determine the durable value of a business in the Transportation Industry without knowing firsthand the unique challenges in that sector. Coming out here, seeing the infrastructure firsthand, talking with the people behind the numbers creates a different picture. Once i know what a business is truly worth, we can make better informed investment decisions. Thats why i go beyond the numbers. Bret we are coming to you from the space symposium and Colorado Springs, colorado, springs. Space walking astronauts tackled battery and cable work outside the speciation today, the third spacewalk and just two weeks for the space station crew. The astronaut and mclean and david hustled through their part in battery swap outs that began last month. Next up, link cable outside the 250mile outpost to provide a backup power circuit for the canadian made robot. Joining me now, the nasa administrator Jim Bridestine. Thank you for being here. A lot of people want to know, it has been eight years since the Shuttle Program has shut down. What is the future of u. S. Space . The president has given us an amazing charge, what we call space policy directive one which as we will go to the moon differently than we have ever done. This time it will be sustainable in other words we will stay. He also said to go with commercial partners, International Partners and this is fascinating, to use the resources of the moon. We now know that there is hundreds of millions of tons of water ice, what does that mean . Water ice is life support, air to breathe in water to drink and rocket fuel if you can imagine. Hydrogen and oxygen is the same fuel that powers space shuttles and its abundant on the surface of the moon. We want to take these capabilities and technologies and apply them eventually for a mission to mars. The president has given us a big agenda and he has had to do it by 2024. Bret is not in part because other countries are doing it . Without question other countries are interested in the moon but theres only one country who can create a coalition and return there that is United States of america. Our goal is to get them on the team that is why im here at the symposium. Im dealing with over 20 agencies around the world to help us and our mission to get to the moon but the key is, this is American Leadership and american greatness. Bret there is a lot of pride in that, but also cost concerns. The Inspector General on this program, the launcher said as of august 2018 nasa has spent 11. 9 billion and will require significant funding to complete the first stage more than three years later than initially planned, doubled anticipating cost. We are told that it is over 17 billion right now and that is a lot more expensive than commercial elements could do it. First of all, there arent any commercial capabilities to get to the moon. This is the only rocket that can do that and the president has given us a charge to get there in 2024 and that is what we intend to do. A couple of things when you talk about cost, we are very cognizant of the cost. We think about the Apollo Program and all the capabilities, there people watching this on directv or broadband delivered from space. These communication capabilities were born from this program to go to the moon during the apollo era. It is the way we communicate and navigate on the way we produce food and energy, the way we do disaster relief. The way we do banking in this country. Every transaction requires a timing signals from gps. We have elevated the human condition in ways that are not pleasurable because of our space program. Bret could we do it properly . Could we do it cheaper . Absolutely. You show the images of the space station and our goal right now is to commercialized the overt. The government ought to be doing for that all of the government can do and the commercial industry can carry the load, let them do it. We are a partner with them right now and that is part of the president s policy. Bret we look forward to following it. We appreciate it. Next up, the panel on a major move against a wrong, border politics at home on the resignation of the Homeland Security secretary coming up. Rs. So, i started with the stats regarding my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Like how humira has been prescribed to over 300,000 patients. And how many patients saw clear or almost clear skin in just 4 months the kind of clearance that can last. Humira targets and blocks a specific source of inflammation that contributes to symptoms. Numbers are great. And seeing clearer skin is pretty awesome, too. Thats what i call a body of proof. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections. Serious and sometimes fatal infections, including tuberculosis, and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened, as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Want more proof . Ask your dermatologist about humira. This is my body of proof. There but what are wes to get our messactually saying . Ys. Any message is a story. And all stories tell the tale of the times we live in right now. How do you want to be remembered . How do you want your story to play out . Our own experiences make the best stories, and your words carry a lot of weight. Think about what you want to say before you say it. Or send it. All of you. How you live, what you love. Thats what inspired us to create americas most advanced internet. Internet that puts you in charge. That protects whats important. It handles everything, and reaches everywhere. This is beyond wifi, this is xfi. Simple. Easy. Awesome. Xfinity, the future of awesome. I want to thank the president began the tremendous opportunity to serve this country. The last 24 hours since yesterday talking with government officials and Administration Officials to ensure a smooth transition. I will continue to support all efforts to address the humanitarian and security crisis on the border. The president works very well with peter and he has done an incredible job of the administration. He wants to implement what the president is pushing. Bret the change of the top of the Homeland Security department as well as the head of the u. S. Secret service, a lot of questions about what that means for policy, especially when it comes to immigration and border policy. One question, doesnt mean that the policy of family separation . The separation of families and the president has had before that he does not like that, a horrible practice. Congress has a way to fix that so it will not be a magnet for people to come here and used children to do that. Bret lets start there with our panel. The politics editor here at fox news. Mollie hemingway, Senior Editor at the federalist and jeff mason. Molly, what about the shakeup and what it means . She had a very long 10year trying to run this department and i think she handled the management of the Department Fairly well. The real problem we have is that we have laws that incentivize the trafficking of children. There is a limit to what you can accomplish with the underlying problem is something that nobody wants to deal with. Congress has to accept that as much as i dont want to do this they might deal with some of the loopholes that are incentivizing these problems that are causing problems for the department. Bret theorist focus be on the scenes and how this all went down and what is behind it. There is because, i know molly said it was a long 10year but it wasnt that long. She did leave with at a time where she wanted to stick around. What im hearing and what my reporting has shown is that the president was ready for a change of leadership. His most important priority is dealing with how porter and he didnt feel that enough with her and so he is ready for somebody new somebody with a lot of experience. They may be looking at some other options in terms of regulation i was told by the administration. Weve obviously and seen some other housecleaning. Bret chris, politically the democrats could have unified part on this but they dont. Take a listen to two congressmen on capitol hill. This is not the National Security crisis. The president continues to describe. There is humanitarian crisis, but it is created by donald trump. It is a security issue and an economic issue. The sheer numbers that are coming over, call it spade to spade. It is difficult to deal with. They have a problem. Democrats arent in a position where they can address immigration. The president s obviously worried that he has not delivered on his promise. He feels that acutely, obviously which explains a lot of this because he is heading into 2020 and he wants to say that he got the job done. Democrats are in no position to take advantage of this because look at their 2020 field. When you listen to these boats, no one has come out to my knowledge, no democrat has come out and talked about a need for. No one has come out with a need for the flow of migrants and having to change the law. We hear a lot about amnesty, but we dont hear about the other side of this equation and have some democrat is there then they will leave the line open for trial. Bret lets turn to the policy change when it comes to the iron guard does it in that group as a terrorist organization in the head of that group according to the secretary of state, a terrorist. That is a big change. Historically a very good reason why the United States does designate parts of government to be terrorist organizations, generally speaking you want to work through the normal military and diplomatic means. I think it might be some concern that we are moving in this direction right at the same time i think that this administration wants to make sure the sanctions are working and they are being enforced as much as possible. It is a way to rim up tension with a country that we might not want to have too much tension with parent bret the iraqi Prime Minister was just there days ago and the iraqi army works closely with the iranian militia that are active in side of iraq. As i sat with the secretary this will get complicated. One weight will be with countries like iraq and other countries that are allies of the United States we have some kind of relationship with iran and one of the purposes of this is to Keep Companies and individuals from doing business with groups that deal with the rating and military forces. The white house today on a call was not really able to identify specific companies that were doing that. One of their goals is to prevent that from happening. That may have an impact on european allies, they have wanted to continue keeping the agreement, the nuclear agreeme agreement. United states pulled out of th that, it leads to some tension with allies there. Bret you talk about the sanctions and they are really taking a hold the oil production, the oil sales, it is all down. If you this, it could really put a boot on the neck of iran. I think that that is part of why this is very helpful, not for american politics but for israeli politics. There is a strong desire on the part of this administration to make Benjamin Netanyahu very good ahead of his reelection tomorrow.
