After the horrific mass execution of 21 christians in libya at the hands of isis. As well as attacks last weekend in copenhagen. And of course last month in paris. All this amid a standoff with republicans on capitol hill as lawmakers seek to roll back the president s executive orders on immigration. Lets go out to white house chief correspondent ed henry with the very latest. This comes at a time when the president s Foreign Policy, lets face it, its a mess all around the world. It was last fall that he said yemen was a success, thats obviously in tatters. Isis the jv squad, now theyre having to deal with extremism. New in the last few moments is that we have just seen these reports suggesting that these horrific beheadings and burnings may have gotten worse, that isis may have burned alive 45 iraqis in western iraq theres various news reports about this and i just spoke to the state department spokeswoman, she was doing a Conference Call with reporters, she told me she has seen those reports, the administration at this hour is working to confirm those reports, but obviously very, very big deal as Vice President biden swore in ash carter, at that moment the Vice President ahead of this summit, where hell be speaking in the next few moments. But the Vice President pointed out this new defense secretary has a lot of major challenges ahead, listen. Many tough missions as you know, ascher as well as the men and women here lie ahead. These reports suggest that up to 45 iraqis were borned alive just in the last few hours apparently by isis militants and it may have included some Iraqi Security forces thats according to the local police chief there in western iraq. In the moont, the white house officials had a hard time explaining what they were trying to accomplish with this summit. Here we go again, and my question to you, ed is whats the point of having this summit. Thats a big question and thats what were waying for Vice President biden to tell us. Well have the president on this summit talking about it as well. But yet, youre right some let me read you one of the quotes they gave us. Quote, what were talking about in terms of the activities for this summit is a complement to not a replacement of existing efforts to counter isil, as they call it instead of isis. Interesting because theyre not suggesting there will be anything new from the summit and Rudy Giuliani was on fax a little earlier today the former new york city mayor saying that on top of that the fact that the administration will not specifically note that the 21 who were beheaded were christians adds to the fact that he doesnt think that another will be accomplished. By refer hes actually hurting them a lot more. Their bottom line inside the white house is they said, we call them terrorists, theyre terrorists no matter what you want to label them. That is something theyre just not going to give in on. Ed henry, live at the white house, thank you. In the wake of that gruesome now a report that dozens of iraqis may have been burned by isis. Dangerously close to europes doorstep. So how does deputy spokespersons strategy to beat isis sit with you . We cannot win this war by killing them. We no to go after the root causes that leads people to join this group. Dont defeat them by acknowledging what the Terror Threat is and killing the terrorists, instead were supposed to quell them by giving them jobs. I dont know where to start exactly, because theres so much to get to. Dozens of iraqis may have been burned alive by isis. These reports just coming in. It fits the pattern, when they capture somebody, theyre going to kill them. And that is happening from the very beginning and if we are making progress against isis as the president suggested the other day when he said that they are on the defensive and were eventually go to win, where are the p. O. W. S that we have taken, walking them in long lines to detention centers, if were making any progress. I havent seen a single picture. All i see is a map that keeps expanding where isis is moving through all of these countries. Lets get back to marie harps obscure statement is that the reality of all of this is that we need to give isis members jobs and that will make them stop attacking jews and christians and now iraqis ss burned alive. When she stayed we cant kill our way out of this. The butchers will continue their butchery until we kill them. Also im sympathetic, shes reading talking points and she gets it mixed up. The fact of the matter is if were going defeat something as comprehensive as a global jihad you have to undermine the ideology, stop the finance and get at the root causes of political reform social injustice, and economic repression, that is true. But in front of us is isis whos mar rauding over iraq and libya,. If theres 21 egyptians who were massacred and had their heads chopped off, he called them egyptian citizens if we dont know we have been having this argument over not naming it radical islam and calming it violent extremism. I could deal with violent extremism. If we had a strategy that makes sense to defeat it. Why would we not identify the victims of those two tragedies, one in france a kosher deli. Not naming that theyre after christians and jews and those who do not believe, even muss limbs who are nonbelievers, that you minimize what this truly is, and therefore you dont have to have a comprehensive strategy to deal with it. And thats pretty scary if thats what it is. Im frustrated with that kind of speculation because i dont like to do it. But in the face of it, you cant help yourself. Time for my take on this. The Obama Administration dibbling down on denial. The jewish murders in the parish kosher deli were random. And now the today new pressure from some pretty influential folks with the pope inviting his congregation in for prayer to say, quote,quotethese arent sporadic attacks this is part of an orchestrated fanatacism. Fanatics want to take over and we cant let that happen. It is a worldwide dry sis that cannot, must not be ignored. The pope and Cardinal Dolan would have been good people to invite to the no doubt they didnt make the cut because they make too much sense. . This administration holds to. Lets get some real talk now on immigration. Now a reaction pouring in. The white house making it clear that the justice accident is going to appeal. But House Speaker john boehner says that the president did act beyond his authority. Funny standoffs going off on capitol hill right now. So far Senate Democrats have refused to judge on r Speaker John Boehner saying today, quote, hopefully Senate Democrat who is claim to oppose this executive overreach will now texas senator ted cruz says, quote, the Senate Democrat who is are filibustering department of Homeland Security fundinging should look hard at this ruling. When lawmakers return, there will be four letting tiff days before Homeland Security funding could potentially lapse. Attorney general eric holder offered this reaction. We have to look after this decision for what it is it is a decision by one federal Court District judge, i expect, i have always expected that this is a matter that will ultimately be decided by a higher court not the supreme court. At this point these democrats are predicting these the timing is interesting with part of the president s executive action due to start tomorrow with in ongoing standoff on capitol hill. The Obama Administration revamping its efforts to counter the isis Propaganda Machine which sends 90,000 tweets a day, imagine that. But will this new strategy be enough to end the flow of feegters to the conflict zone. And a big chunk of the country getting clobbered again by brutal weather, on top of dangerously cold temperatures again. When can we expect a break from mother nature. Big problem on the now joining contract negotiations aimed at trying to and this massive work slowdown at more than two dozen west coast ports. What is it doing . Its leaving thousands of containers on ships waiting to be unloaded. Were just getting to the point where business is good again. Were just getting to the point where were making money again good money, and then this hits. And its just you know, one more thing as a Business Owner that we have got to worry about and stress about and not sleep at night about and you hope that this comes to a resolution soon. So unions and the administration ared a nearly 4 billion. Now back to that battle against isis on a different front. What they are going to do theyre going to up the social media joining me now for some real talk, andrew mccarthy. 90,000 tweets, we knew that this social propaganda was huge by isis. And for a whooirl we have been asking the question where is the state department to combat this. Now it appears that theyre going to do it a little bit. What difference does it really make what they do . What matters to the people who are on the receiving end of this social media is what the United States will is to fight its sits and preevailprevail. They dont for the terrorism, they care whether we have the will to figtsd them or not. And when you take the position as were taking now that we can sort of tweet them into submission or tweet them sweet for tweet. It reminds me when we were in the 90s and i was in the o so you say it come back to what we have already been discussing which is when you dont admit what the root of the problem really is, it doesnt matter if you have this problem of tweets. It actually does matter because it tells them if theres any doubt, we are not willing to grapple with it. They tell us what the state department is going to do is to combat things like recruiting. If theyre really serious about maybe the president could stop releasing terrorists from gitmo, when trifterrorists who have fought the United States have come back to where they came from, they become the biggest recruiting superstars on the planet. Ive got to get back to the breaking news, the report is that isis has burned alive dozens of iraqis. Im dug in on this strategy of calling it violent extremism. Every time you say that, were telling the enemy, were afraid to say nen who you are, much to fight you. Why are they in this deny deniability deniability . Why . I think the president if he had. De there was a certain kind of islamism that he could partner with align with and stablize the region with. They have dug into that strategy, they have been from the start and they simply won admit that this is radical islamic theology or ideology. Even with the reports that dozens burned alive. Major developments in the american sniper murder trial as prosecutors play that police video showing the accused killinger, this is it right here, in the back seat of the patrol car only minutes after he was arrested, so what did he say . And a wild ride in wisconsin has an elderly man loses control of his car in a parking lot. How many cars were tagged by one driver. Its fat some of the most popular lent sacrifices last year included school, chocolate twitter, swearing, and alcohol. So that brings us to our question of the day. Yep, its tomorrow, you only have one day if youre partaking, what are you giving up for lent . Rty mutual insurance. Watch the dark colored sufficient as it hits two parked cars before backing into another vehicle. The manage hit ten vehicles before it was all over. Police say a medical condition may have caused the man to lose control of his car. Eddie ray ralph looking dazed in a police car only minutes after his arrest. Saying things like whats wrong with our minds and am i going to the insane asylum . Our own Casey Stegall live outside the courthouse in stevenville, texas today. Jurors also recently heart a videotaped confession what did that tape contain . Reporter gretchen they did and its probably the most powerful evidence we have seen in this trial so far. It lasted about 90 minutes or so. And it starts with Eddie Ray Ralph with his hands handcuffed behind hiss back the night he was arrested only hours after the crime. The detective who conducted the interview took the stand. The 24yearold former marine admits to both of the murders. He said i knew if i didnt take out his soul, he was coming to take mine out next. He was further pressed by that texas ranger asking if he had anything to say to the families and that is when he said, im quoting here, im so sorry a r for what i have done and if i could have done it differently, i would have done it so much differently. Its important to point out that the reason were not playing the audio for you in that Police Cruiser video you showed and also with this confession video is because the judge has banned the media from doing so. The only video that were allowed to sew you is what you see on your screen only the video portions of the proceeding what was the defenses rebuttal to that tape . Upon crossexamination, the defense tried to basically poke holes in that testimony. They had questions with the interrogation style and they were also questioning what it should have even been admissible in court in the first prays, because what they primarily took issue with in that video is the way their client was read hid miranda rights. Whether ralph truly agreed that he had the right to remain silent and that he did not have to answer questions without a lawyer present. So basically what theyre doing there is theyre saying that ralph at the time of that video was in a very fragile state of mind, that is playing on the whole insanity defense that theyre trying to build here and he did not understand what was going on at the time, gretchen. Federal judge putting president obamas immigration orders on hold forcing a delay in plans for his deportation amnesty. So will this end gridlock on capitol hill and a tanker train runs off the rails, blows up seconding tens of thousands of crude oil on fire. We got stopped right there on route 61, we were in a slay ride and got caught on 61 by a Police Officer that said there was an explosion. President obamas imgrags time to pursue a lawsuit claiming that president obamas orders speed his authority and violate the constitution. So the move also setting up a major showdown now on capitol hill over funding for the department of Homeland Security. We have judge napolitano and steven diamond of the Washington Times about what happens next on capitol hill. So what happens now . Well, see, there are two parts of this. The first is the legal reality, this judges ruling is really devastating for they spent the last week filibustering the Homeland Security bill in order to defend president obamas policies. You now have a federal judge in texas ruling that those policies are likely illegal. It really undercuts the democrats legal argument for their defense there. But the political reality is slightly different. The issue here is whether the Homeland Security department fichbd funding runs out for that department. Without a full bill to fund that department, it will have to do a partial shutdown and republicans will probably take the blame because historically they get blamed for these government shutdowns so the histories against republicans there i suspect you have already seen some weak knees from some of the rank and file republicans pushing on their leaders saying hey, we should back off this fight, were going to lose it. I suspect even despite this judges ruling republicans are probably going to end up caving. Clear the path for dhs spending. Absolutely, and thats the republicans leaders arguments right now, at least publicly they have been very tough about that i sag look, were okay with this fight, we think we win this fight. The problem is that there are a number of ranning and nile republicans feeling they wont win this fight because of history, theyre afraid if they shut down Homeland Security in the middle of the paris attacks and the denmark attacks and whatnot, theyre afraid they will end up getting blamed not just for the shutdown but that there is some other attack on the u. S. In the meantime, those are political dangers theyre not yet ready to face right now. Judge andrew cannons decision ordering the injunction against president obamas saying the states suffer irreparably hard legaling the presence of millions of people is, quote, virtually irreversible. Lets bring in judge Napolitano Fox senior political analyst. Do you agree with the judges ruling . I do. But i dont come at this from a neutral position. I have been critical of the president from day one of exceeding his oath and exceeding his powers under the constitution, by rewriting some laws and refusing to enforce other laws. And this particular judge in texas virtually agreed. You actually read the most important part of this 125page opinion. By issuing an injunction against the department of Homeland Security is saying two things, it is probable meaning more likely than not that the 26 states assume the federal judge will win in this case. Once they start processing the immigrants through their state social welfare systems, they wont be able to stop it. What happens next, the department of justice has said now that they will appeal. They will file an emergency request for permission to appeal to the United States court of appeals to the fifth circuit which sits in houston and new orleans. If the fifth circuit says no, then the judgess that probably means forever, because the duration of the trial will probably take the duration of president obamas remaining term. If the fifth circuit interferes, then we would have to be guided by whatever the fifth circuit says. Is it a state or a federal issue . Its a federal issue, the argument before a federal judge, now soon to be a panel of three federal judges is that the president of the United States violated the authority the constitution gives him and ordered the department of Homeland Security to change their regulations and they made those change illegally they the didnt even follow the rules for making the changes which requires 30 days for congress to get involved which they didnt give the opportunity to do. Dumping a thick layer of snow across the south and the midatlantic, storm now heading back into new england after blanketing our Nations Capital under six inches or more uncle sam declaring a snow day telling federal workers to stay home. The District Of Columbia declaring a snow emergency. Peter peter doosy how bad by the federal area is closed today and that includes the White House PressBriefing Room where the scheduled q a with josh ernest was snowed out. But this shutdown is rubbing some lawmakers the wrong way. Republican congressman Jason Chaffetz where they know a thing or two about getting a lot of snow. He tweeted this. Snowing in d. C. , and closed the government. Imagine if the rest of the country closed when it snows. Does he have a point . The 450,000 federal employees in the maryland and d. C. Metro area got off today for this, about six inches in the burbs about four inches in the district. Its very fluffy snow, its very light. We saw all day major roads were cleared pretty quickly by snowplows and people have been driving by at a pretty decent rate of speed. The side streets are a little bit different story, but right now what would have been a workday for the federal government, all the roads here, which got hit hard overnight are virtually passable. Its funny when all the schools close when theres a threat of an inch or something. Will the federal government come back to work tomorrow . Im making you a weather person will they . Reporter they definitely should gretchen now the story is the cold. The cold is the reason that every single flake that fell from the sky stuck to something, and the cold is the reason that things could get pretty slick tonight. But all indications we have from officials and from the forecast is that the federal government will open up tomorrow which means that after a fourday weekend, people should be getting back to work. You know what my producer just told me in my ear . A lot of flakes in d. C. , you get it . Shepard smith reporting live from the fox news desk.

So back to one of our top stories today, the white house kicking off that threeday summit on countering violent extremism. As the entire world watches the islamist jihadist advertise their Murderous Campaign. In this editorial quote a recent white house talking point has been that terrorism isnt all that threatening act we shouldnt overreact. If thats going to be the message of this weeks summit, then call it off, mr. President. I wonder if we should call it off if were not going to call it what is it is. Were spending three days here having a discussion about how communities in the western world can do a better job at preventing local homegrown terrorists from attacking their own countries. Were seeing a huge coalition of countries coming together on this. Just last week the president asked them the notion that hes backing away from his responsibilities is ridiculous hes actually saying what were doing now is inadequate we have got to do more. I think hes trying to develop more tools for the United States to combat these terrorists more effectively. In the last three days, you have 21 christians in egypt beheaded. Now there are reports that 45 iraqis were burned alive and then you have the situation in copenhagen denmark. Larry, homegrown terrorism obviously a huge problem but thats not the headline right now, and if hes not going to call it what it is, why bother . Theres some things ill never understand. Why people in washington cant drive when theres two inches of snow and the other is why this administration refuses to call our enemy by their name this is radical islamic terrorism, period. Whatever they have been trying to come up with euphemism since the first day of this administration, and it confuses the issue, i dont think isis is terrified because the president is calling a summit. This isnt about islam phobia or something. Because the islam president of egypt, when his people were slaughter slaughtered. He did not call for a summit, he called for an afr strike. Simon, do you agree with the administration that it was egyptian citizens who were being beheaded or were they Coptic Christians . They were both. Theyre not even calling it both. The point is that i mean, look, agree with lyrearry, its a question of what we do now, and we have to recognize is that the strategy of the United States for 35 years of bombing these groups out of existence hasnt worked. The president s trying to develop a better and more enduring strategy to make sure that we eradicate this threat and its what the republicans are doing with dhs next week is so risky. Youre making it sound that president obamas legacy is that he looked at Foreign Policy straight in the eye and said hey, this is my job as president. Its exactly the opposite, isnt, larry . I dont agree wit. What are we going to do set up a jobs program over there . Because if you hear marie harp, she thinks that terrorists are picking up ak47s because they cant start a business. Why arent american 17yearolds picking up ak47s. You bring up a great point larry of what marie harp did seyedsay yesterday. Its not that we havent given them jobs its that theres been a youth explosion in the middle east, there are tens of millions of under employed ying people. So killing another 20,000 or 30,000 of them is not going to deal with this other problem. I think we can walk and chew gum at the same time, gretchen. What we did in europe at the end of world war ii to defeat communism was the marshall plan. It was an economic plan, it was something that we did to create more peaceful democracies and to give people economic opportunity. Were going to need to get smarteder about what were doing in the middle east. That was after we killed the nazis and we addressed their ideology. And killed their leader. We have killed anif the administration can walk and chew gum at the same time maybe they can call them egyptian citizens and egyptian christians at the same time. The race to be top dog. My behind the scenes look at the Westminster Dog Show. I even got to meet the weather dog, a celebrity at the dog show who spends his free time inspiring others. He loves to inspire others.
