About border crossings. Reporter dana, no question about it. Kirstjen nielsen today backed up what customs and Border Protection is saying. That the situation at the border is an emergency and is unsustainable. We are on track right now to be at 900,000 this year. Okay. Our apprehensions of family units of aliens of accompanied alien children increasing or decreasing . They are increasing extraordinarily rapidly. Family units went up around 30 from last month. Same for uacs. Those are the two vulnerable populations that are dramatically increasing. Reporter uac is the lynn go for unaccompanied children, which is all part of that surge at the border, dana. Dana theres this other story about this antisemitism resolution in the house. Where does that stand . Reporter expectation was it would be on the house floor today. But after the comments of Congress Woman omar. It has been broadened to include other tpofrpls of discrimination according to sources. Some democrats are expressing frustration. 2019 and its the 21st century. The fact that we have to put a resolution on the floor and spell out for people across this country what antisemitism means is pretty outrageous. Reporter Top Republicans are applying pressure, saying the bill should not be watered down. This is not a time for politics. This is a time for the Democratic Leaders in this institution to do the right thing. They should remove her from the House Foreign Affairs committee. Reporter im told the resolution is being edited based on feed back received during todays House Democratic caucus meeting. Dana . Dana thank you. Michael cohen is back on capitol hill returning for another round of testimony as democrats seek evidence to use against President Trump. Chief intelligence correspondent Catherine Herridge is live at todays closed door hearing. Reporter good afternoon. Michael cohen has been in a secured facility for the better part of 4. 5 hours. This is the third time hes testified in some form in the last two weeks. House democrats are really trying to lay the groundwork and drill down on this 2016 moscow real estate project for a trump tower in russia. They want to set the table for a witness thats coming up for public testimony march 14th. Thats felix stater. He worked directly with Michael Cohen to moscow to pardon me, market the moscow trump tower project. Majority leader looking at these hearings by the democrats are offering democrats a warning. The politics of president ial harassment hasnt worked out too well. I remember when we decided it was a good idea to impeach president clinton and his Approval Rating went up and ours went down. Reporter House Republicans note about the 2016 moscow real estate project that it never came through and sort of the under lying act, this was a business negotiation, doesnt amount to any crime or collusion, dana. Dana then the hill is demanding that the white house turn over information about security clearances from the white house. Especially for ivanka trump and Jared Kushner. Hows that going over . Reporter this seems to be one of the first flash points of this broad and sweeping investigations that has been launched by the House Democrats. As you know, the chairman of the Oversight CommitteeElijah Cummings has launched this investigation into the security clearance practices at the white house after reporting that more than two dozen people got top secret security clearances despite reservations of career officials who reviewed their applications. As you noted in the media this week are the allegations against ivanka trump and her husband Jared Kushner and that there was some kind of president ial pressure to try and get them top secret security clearances. For her part, ivanka trump has denied her fathers involvement. We also heard this morning from the White House Press secretary, sarah sanders. As you know, were not gonna comment on security clearances. Thats the policy of the white house. That continues to be the policy of the white house. Were also not gonna get into comments and a back and forth over things that are currently dealing with the oversight. Reporter this is setting the table for House Democrats to make a decision as to whether they want to issue subpoenas and raise the temperature even further on this issue. This is an issue you rightly predicted would come to a head pretty quickly in the new session. Dana its only march 6th. Theyre at it, thats for sure. Catherine herridge, thank you. U. S. Forces capturing hundred of isis terrorists in syria amid the battle to liberate the last civilian village held by the terror group. Jennifer griffin has more from the pentagon. Reporter dana, u. S. Backed Syrian Kurdish forces say they have captured 400 isis fighters as they tried to escape from the last town held by the Islamic State in eastern syria. As the socalled califate nears collapse. In the past few weeks, 10,000 civilians have fled this tiny pocket where isis is making its last stand. The wives of children of isis fighters remain defiant and vowed the fight would continue as they turn themselves in at desert reception centers. They chanted teus the Islamic State will remain. 200 fighters have surrendered raising questions what to do with them. President trump asked the home countries to prosecute them, but their home countries dont want them back. The isis leader remains at large. Dana striking pictures as well. Do the other side of the world, north korea. Rebuilding satellite missile . Reporter experts say this north korean launch pad has been dormant since august following the first summit between President Trump and kim jongun. But new satellite images taken two days after the vietnam summit failed show unusual activity at the launch pad, as south korean lawmakers briefed on the intelligence, cranes, new construction appear at the launch site, where north korea has put satellites into space using Technology Similar to that needed for ballistic missiles. North korea has never launched an icbm from this site. Its important to point that out. But the new acty teufrbty is raising eyebrows. John bolton explained what the administration would do if north korea does not halt nuclear testing. If theyre not willing to do it, President Trump has been very clear, theyre not gonna get relief from the crushing economic sanctions that have been imposed on them. Well look at ramping those sanctions up, in fact. Reporter its not clear whether kim jongun plans to restart Missile Launches if talks fail or whether north korea is building at this new launch site in order to offer to dismantle it down the road. In other words, is this simply a bargaining chip . Dana thank you. We heard breaking news from venezuela as a u. S. Journalist has been arrested.

The billionaire announcing the only hope for Real Progress lies outside of d. C. Howard schultz, who is mulling an independent run, tweeting, quote, bloomberg governed from the center with big ideas, prague pha teufpl and common sense in anary rao af paralysis and dysfunction, hes an exception. I have long said there isnt room for centrist moderation in either party. It appears mr. Bloomberg has come to the same conclusion. Joining me now colin reed, a gop strategist and ty master, great guys, both of you. Let me start with you, colin. Howard schultz said that about Mike Bloomberg, but doesnt it also show Mike Bloomberg came to the conclusion he couldnt win . It was an interesting analogy for him to draw. There is no room for centrists in the Democratic Party. Its why howard schultz, a life long democrat had to run as an independent because there was no room for him in the party. I think wed be kidding ourselves if we thought major bloomberg was not going to play an influence in this campaign season. Hes just gonna do it on the outside. With his unlimited funds, he can have an impact. It will be interesting to see if my democratic friends decry the influence of so called dark money being spent on their behalf. Dana it depends on where you sit, i guess. This is what he said. Until 20201 our only real hope for progress lies outside of washington. Unlike most who are running or thinkingist, im fortunate enough to be in a position to devote the resources needed to bring people together and make a big difference. Is he giving an indication that he thinks President Trump has this in the bag . I dont think thats what the indication is. I think he knows he has billions of dollars. Hes got causes that hes passionate about. Why not go where you can have impact on places Like City Councils and state legislators and local ordinances. So i think its honest. I dont think it shows theres no room for a moderate in the Democratic Party. In iowa there could conceivably be 20 people on the ballot so you could win with 7 on the vote. He just thought, where can i be the most effective . Where can the resources that i have been blessed with do the most good . Dana he certainly had an impact in the mid terms of 2018. I want to ask you about this. That Bernie Sanders has decided he is going to take that pledge. He is going to run as a democrat. Colin, is there anything to this that we should be paying attention to . I actually think its smart politics on senator sanders behalf. Hes taking issues that his political opponents could use against him off the table. One of the constant hits on him for his democrats has been, hes not actually a member of the Democratic Party. Hillary clinton likes talking about that. Now his opponents cant use that against. Senator sanders made that in 2015. In 2018 he ran in vermont as an independent. Hes already declared an independent in 2024. So well see if he actually means it, but i think its smart politics in the short term. Dana do you think Bernie Sanders fits in the Current Democratic Party . I think that hes probably left of where the party is. If you look at where we won the midterms, you had 40 new seats. Very pragmatic. Look, lets be honest where the Democratic Party is. 51 of democrats say the most important quality of a candidate is, can they beat donald trump . That is going to be, theres never been a figure in american politics who is such a lightning rod as weve seen in donald trump. So democratic primary electorate will say, whos got the best shot at making sure this guy doesnt return . Dana yesterday we had the sound from Hillary Clinton saying, shes not gonna run in 2020. Last night there were tweets saying she spoke to someone close with clinton and was in con tack with her today. They say she wasnt trying to be emphatic and close the door on running when she spoke to a local reporter. She was surprised by how definitively it played. She was told her team is waiting at least to see the mueller report. So, colin, is she back possibly on the table . I hope so. I think most republicans hope she runs again, too. Shed be a welcome addition to a crowded field for the republican party. I think its clear, Hillary Clinton still has wounds left from 2016. She an her staff are still airing them out publicly with senator sanders. Probably not productive to the conversation as a whole, but as a republican, its fun to see. Dana what happens inside the Democratic Party . Are people placing bets, is she gonna run or not run . Shes probably one of the most well known figures in our party. One person who seems more obsessed with her than the Democratic Party is donald trump. He keeps reliving 2016. Dana he even tweeted that she will be sorely missed. All right. Guys, i gotta run.

Dana we have Team Coverage from chicago with matt finn outside r. Kellys court room. But lets start with mike tobin on that interview. It was something else, mike. Reporter it was somethings else, dana. R. Kelly playing the victim card in this bizarre interview he gave to cbs gayle king. He got out of the chair. He pounded his chest. He said he had been assassinated and buried alive. The singer did say he needed help, but help from having such a big heart. People betray him an he keeps forgiving them.

Matt finn is in court with that part of the story. Matt . Reporter dana, r. Kelly could walk through this entrance at any moment. Court documents show he owes nearly 200,000 in Child Support. A judge ordered him to pay 161,000 of that amount by 10 00 a. M. Because this case is sealed, we do not know right now if he has paid that money. If he does not come up with the money today, it is possible the judge throws him back in jail today after he just spent three days behind bars weeks ago for his separate criminal charges. If he does not produce this Child Support money today, his legal team might ask for a payment plan or some type of leniency, arguing the singer is broke. Evidenced by his apparent inability to pay 100,000 to bail himself out of jail just days ago. Representatives for k. Kellys exwife said the singer has an apartment in chicagos trump tower and pays for a staff, so his lifestyle suggests he chose to stop paying his exwife the 20,000 a month in Child Support versus him being unable to pay that amount. Well see how a judge feels ability all of this in just a matter of minutes. A representative for k. Kellys exwife tells us she will not be in court, but well see if she shows up. Dana Hillary Clinton making a bold claim about the 2020 election only to be called out by the Washington Post. Plus democrats ramping up their investigate eights of President Trump. Well hear from one of the recipients and how hes vowing to fight back. First shawn spicer. What the democrats have started to realize, from all the tea leaves weve seen, while some people did some bad things, there were people that clearly interfered with the last election, that there was no collusion. Dana President Trump is in the oval office with the american hostage who was recently freed after 18 months of captivity in yemen. The president was asked a question about north korea. We have that for you now. And youre doing a fantastic job. Thank you very much. Thank you all very much. Thank you. Were moving along. Were discussing that with lindsey and mitch. Theres either going to be a deal or theres not going to be a deal. I think theyre moving along nicely. By you building a Missile Launch site . Its too early to see. Well see. We have to solve a problem. We have a very nasty problem. We have to solve a problem. The relationship is good. I would be very disappointed if that were happening. Its a very early report. Were the ones that put it out. I would be very very disappointed in chairman keupl. I dont think i will be, but well see what happens. It will ultimately get solved. Thank you all very much. Thank you, everybody. Ill have to see how the vote goes. See how the vote goes. Dana always hard to get the press out of the oval office. The president meeting with the american who was being held in yemen who was just released, but also taking his first questions on north korea. We were happy to bring that to you. How, jerry nadler, youll know hes sending document requests to 81 people and entities, as democrats are ramp lg up their investigations into President Trump. My next guest is one of the recipients Michael Caputo was an adviser on the trump campaign. The committee is asking him for any documents related to contact between Trump Associates and russia. Washington post obtained a may 2016 Text Exchange about a russian who was offering dirt on Hillary Clinton. Joining me now is that gop strategist Michael Caputo. Youve been going through this for quite a while. You said you have donors that have helped you deal with the huge legal bill since this all began. Yeah. If it arent for go fund me, i dont know where my family would be. Were well over 200,000 in legal fees. Thats not money i can put on the table. If you dont have proper representation, even as a witness, you get yourself caught up in this jack pot and you may not find yourself out again, you know. With the Mueller Investigation report coming out with a report. My wife and i, my children, we thought after having our lives on pause for two years, that we might be able to hit play again. But now with chairman nadlers fishing expedition, its all starting back up. Dana right now its just a request. Not a subpoena, not a demand. Theres no Legal Backing behind it. Because you have said you maintained your innocence. You said i have already gone through this. Would there be any benefit to turning that over to them and saying, this is all i have . Well, if you look at the request for documents of all 81 of those people, mine was probably the shortest. It was only three short paragraphs. Weve already responded. My attorney, who was new York State Attorney general, dennis vonko. He knows this stuff backwards and forward. He told the chairman we have no documents that would be responsive to the request for document production. And also, i mean, he also gotten into a conversation with a member of the staff of the committee who asked dennis if, in fact, hi would produce me as a witness for an interview with the committee, which dennis was surprised by that. Not only because i have already testified twice before congress on this, and also in front of the Mueller Investigation. They wanted me again to answer the same questions a fourth time. Also, im probably the most marginal person on that list, with only three short questions asking for documents. If theyre asking me about volunteer to interview, theyre going to ask everybody, dana. Thats 81 people, including the department of justice. Dana do you think that i know youre not going to cooperate, or you dont intend to at this time. Are there others that wont . Is that being coordinated by anyone . No. I know Washington Post initially reported that we were kind of coordinating together. Were not. Were just talking. Were all kind of palms up about this. All of us know this is a perjury trap. Theyre trying to set the stage for impeachment of the president of the United States. I dont know if im willing to step up and be part of their game. I have done this now, this will be the fourth time, dana. Why dont they just go get my testimony from one of the other house committees or the Senate Committee . This is getting ridiculous. Dana that would sound more efficient indeed. Im sorry i have got to run. Michael caputo, thanks for coming on the show. Thanks, dana. Dana joining me for more on this is georgia congressman doug collins. Ranking member of the judiciary committee. When these 81 letters went out, what was your thought . It was exactly what weve been saying since the new congress began. They start with chairman nadler starts with a hypothesis. We dont like the president. Now we find our own facts. Thats all this is, dana. This is one of the most blatant power grab attempts and abuses of a committee whose jurisdiction is so broad and so vast. Were focused on stuff that, as michael said, hes already testified. Go read. Maybe theyre having trouble reading. I can get them hooked on phonics. They dont need to do that. They need to focus on what theyre doing. This is a fishing expedition thats all it is. Dana david axelrod, a Senior Adviser for president obama, he tweeted this. Maybe im missing something, but the hazard of an omni bows document demand versus discrete serial one is that however legitimate the areas of inquiry, the wide changing rnature of it is widely playing into the witch hundred hunt meme. This is concerning. This is so blatant that youre seeing it. When you dont have a plan, you dont have a vision for the country. You have an economy thats doing well. You have job levels are high, unemployments low. When you have all these things out there and youre still so disoriented over 2016 and you have a chairman fighting off his left. Dana do you think thats this is where this is coming from . Do you think chairman nadler is getting pressure from the left saying were going to demand that you do something . I think hes feeling a lot of pressure. We see that when he has town halls in his district talking about impeachment. Its impeachment with no facts. The chairman said, i know he committed obstruction and then in the same sentence says, well, we dont have enough evidence to bring it. Look, it goes back to old things up here on the hill called presenting evidence. Mr. Mccarthy said it or tried that saying, i have all this information, but i cant show it to you. Dana i dont mean to use this time to have you agree with democrats, but i want to have you read one other tweet. This is from greg hail. He says, dont do it, please. Please dont impeach him. It wont help us win in 2020. He deserves it. I believe that. But whats the best long term play for the country . His day will come and it wont be pretty, but unless republicans join the fight, its not worth the risk. Do you hear anything off camera where senior democrats are saying, we realize this could back fire on us . Yes. Some of our democrats who dont always run to the podiums and try to talk about impeachment are saying this is a strategy. Some of them amazingly ran on a platform. They ran on infrastructure and things they would like to see get done, but their party has been hijacked by the peach trump forces. What are you impeaching him for . Doing a good job. Doing what is right . Theyre getting desperate because muellers getting close to being finished. They dont see any evidence that hes going to say collusion or whatever they started with is what hes going to find, so theyre desperate to find it. 30 of the 81 letters had to do with russia. When you understand that, youre seeing theyre going to russia which they said, we dont want to get involved with because we want to protect mueller. All theyve done is attack him. Dana this was out today. An Monmoth University poll. During the hearing last week when the republicans had a chance to question Michael Cohen, they asked the question, what were republicans most interested in getting at the truth, 22 , or defending trump, 48 . Republicans have a challenge here messaging wise as you go into these hearings. The chairmans not going to stop calling them. Youre not gonna stop showing up. How can republicans do a better job convincing people that they also want the truth . When you go to these hearings you ask the questions, you listen to the answers. Part of the reason some of these polls are out there is because every media outlet in the world is where theyre going out taking the assumption the democrats were right to start with. The problem is, the democrats are not right. Theyre trying to find their reason. What were finding is we just need to go in and say, look, you have a liar going to jail trying to redeem himself. If thats what he wants to do, fine. The reality is he perjured himself last week. What is the constitutional role of oversight in congress . Right now they are so stretching the edge of what we should be doing. We gotta look at that. Dana i know they said the same about republicans when theyre in the majority, but im glad to have you on today so you could give us your side. Senator doug collins, thank you. Swing state of florida, hows it looking for trump in 2020 . Public Corruption Case against aaron shotz. Its finally over. So what happened to the felony charges against him. Im looking forward to having this weigh off my chest and not having it the first thing i think about every morning and the last thing i think about when i go to bed. Im Trace Gallagher in for shep. Rfpl kelly set to appear in court after an emotional interview where the r b star denied charges of sexual abuse. Thats coming up on Shepard Smith reporting. Dana studies that have been done said somewhere between 40 and 80,000 people were turned away from the polls because of the color of their skin, because of their age, because of whatever excuse could be made up. To stop a fellow american citizen from voting. Dana Washington Post giving Hillary Clintons four pinocchios for her claim blaming her loss on Voter Suppression in wisconsin. Glad to have you on the show. Wisconsin is in the final two states to get the Democratic Convention in 2020. I dont think thats that big of a deal, where you put your convention, necessarily. But we keep circling back to that issue. When she brought up voting rights, i wanted to ask you about that. How real is that belief . And should republicans take that more seriously . Look, Pew Research Center did a study after the midterm elections to try to understand to what extent do voters feel like its hard to vote . How many people are running into problems when they get to the polls, etc . What they found, for the most part, voters have a perfectly easy time voting. In fact, as someone who studies Younger Voters a lot, as i do, one of the things i find is in some ways young voters dont participate because they hear this rhetoric, that it is so hard to vote. They, therefore, decide to just stay home. In a weird way, Voter Suppression, by talking about it so much, as if it is widespread and incredibly difficult for everyone to vote, winds up deterring people from participating what is, by and large, for a vast majority of americans is simple and straight forward process. Dana there is a strain of thought, i guess, on the left. I hear it come up over and over again. Doesnt seem to penetrate the mainstream. They just say theres Voter Suppression. Should republicans do something to counter that . I think so, because i think we want to make sure that people believe that our elections are valid. We dont just want them to believe it. We want our elections to be valid. Its important that anyone eligible to vote be able to do so. When it comes to voter i. D. Where Large Population of americans support you have to show identification, if republicans want to pursue those policies they have to make sure its easy to get an i. D. Theres not necessary costs associated with it so when the left complains, you say, we tried to make it as easy as possible to make sure we dont want any eligible voters to be turned away from the polls. We just want elections to be free and fair. Dana another big state everyone will talk about is florida. Last week larry sabato said florida is right leaning for 2020. Not necessarily a tossup. He would put it in the category of right leaning. Then we saw this poll today. Left leaning firm. They say that only 40 of floridians want trump reelected, including 29 of independents. They also go on to say of the democrats, who do you like in florida . And 26 say biden, 11 sanders, 9 harris, warren down at 4 and the rest, theyre just undecided. How much stock do you put in a poll like this . Well, its important to think about the way that question is asked. Do you believe that the president deserves reelection or would you prefer someone else, or pairing President Trump against what we call a generic democrat . When you add a name to that mix, suddenly generic democrat takes on all of the plus sides and downsides of that individual. So there may be some folks who think, eh, maybe im not a huge fan of the president , but gosh, if democrats put up someone thats far to the left, i might go vote for him anyway, even if im not sure he deserves reelection. I want to stop the democrats from getting into power. The generic democrat questions, too close to tell. Bear in mind, florida was one of the states where the blue wave from the last midterms didnt really hit. You had republicans take a senate seat from bill nelson, with rick scott winning. You had republicans hang on to the governors mansion. Had ron disantis defeating gillum. Florida is one of the states trump sort of won in 2016. Im sure he would prefer not to have to spend a large amount of time there. Florida is one of the ones i would be less concerned about if i was President Trump. Dana im sure thats welcome news to them. Your firm, you talked to voters. 2020 prospects, what place represent the rest of america the best . Tell me who you saw at number one. Sure. So we took a look at every county in the United States and how demographically representative it is of america. Does it look like america . And then we looked at where all of the democratic president ial contenders are from. Number one was the mayor of south bend, indiana. Found that where he comes from in south bend, that is the place that looks the most like your average american town, which i think considering most democrats, most voters have never heard of him, gives him an interesting advantage in that race. He can say, i get the average american. Statistically thats the place that looks the most. Dana the places that look the least like the rest of america, here in new york city and san francisco. There you have it. Thats interesting. Dana thank you. Thank you. Dana special k used to be taken as a party drug. Now the fda is approving it to treat a major problem in the u. S. Were gonna tell you about that. Plus a teenager saving up for two years to get his friend a special gift. The smile he got in return is priceless. I did not know he was saving it up.
