Ill have the answer. Back to you guys. All right. Checking news now, the Trump White House making it official. Checking out the morning briefing. The president will sign a 1 trillion catch all spending and running much the bill is set for a house vote today. This comes despite the fact the president seemed to criticize the measure just hours earlier. The Budget Office calls the funderring bill a win for the American People and says that it is pleased the with extra money for the pentagon and border security. Today President Trump will host Palestinian Leader mahmoud a bass at the white house. The two expected to discuss a path forward in the ongoing mideast conflict with israel. Annal all of a sudden say the meal will be a test to see whether the president is serious about his plan to pursue a lasting piece deal for the region. Meanwhile President Trump all in for health care reform. But its still unclear whether the gop has the votes to repeal and replace obama care. The president and Republican Leaders in congress may be just a few votes away from health care reform. But time is running out. Now emotional comments from late night talk show host are helping refuel the latest debate. People behind me President Trump celebrating with the air force academy yesterday. But clearly consumed by another issue. How is health care coming folks . How is it doing . All right. Were moving along. All right. I think its time now. It may be time but are the votes there . Republicans in congress are struggling to keep both moderates and conservatives on board with a plan to repeal and row mace obama care. And much of the intra party debate focused on preexisting conditions and whether Insurance Companies should have to take all comers an issue with renewed National Attention after late night talk show Host Jimmy Kimmel spoke emotionally of his child who was just born with a heart defect and required almost immediate surgery. If your baby is going to die and it doesnt have to, it shouldnt matter how much money you make. I think thats something whether youre a rope republican or democrat or something else, we all agree on that. We as democrats see very little if any this difference between the bill that bill that failed a few weeks ago. Democrats latched on the issue of lost under the republican plan. Which could allow consumers to shift into high risk pools if they have preexisting cond conditions. But either way, that key provision of obama care that could allow people to for go purchasing Health Insurance until they get sick is difficult to finance. The idea of taking, um, preexisting conditions out of the, um, of the whole equation thats no longer insurance. It is somewhat a can to ta taking your a kin to taking your car to an Insurance Company after wrecking it and saying id like to buy insurance now. And its the reason why the most popular part of obama Care Coverage for preexisting conditions was also paired with the least popular part of the obama care the requirement that everyone carry health care insurance. Hillary clinton taking responsibility for her election loss but also blaming ma so much gee, russian under convenience and james comey. In an interview in new york the former democratic candidate admits that she made mistake in her campaign. But also believes the reason lost various events in the final ten days of her campaign. Clinton wept on to say she would have won had the election been held on october 27th 1 day before comey announced he was reopening the investigation into the use of her email. Speaking of james comey he is set to testify today before a Senate Judiciary committee on fbi oversight. The hearing will not directly address the bureaus investigation into the Trump Campaign in russia that will be the topic of discussion tomorrow when comey heads back to the hill for a closed door hearing. 9 07.

Players now say some of the fans at fenway in boston are shouting racial slurs at them and its not the first time. Lets talk about what happened. Major League Baseball fans in boston are being accused of going oo far. Players now say some fans at fenway have been shouting slurs at them going on for while not brand new says monday night during the game against the red sox some of the fans at fenway park not only yell racial slurs at them but someone through a bag of peanuts at him. Those photos were up loaded on twitter. Not now at fenway park for black athletes. Yankee veteran cc sabathia says this is common at the park. He says its the only ballpark where he hears racial slurs coming from the fans. Even red sox players have told management they have been verbal al bruised from racial slurs from their own fans. Other players saying its the worse place for the black athletes to play because of the racial slurs coming from the fans. Last night completely different story when adam jones walked to the plate, the fans at fenway park actually cheered for him. They gave him a standing ova ovation. In an toast show the efforts of some do not reflect all of the fans. I just appreciate what they did. I never on the road gotten ovations or anything like that. Just appreciative that action was taken and that not all not everybody feels the same way as selected people. Jones went on to say these kinds of things are bigger than the game after the monday night incident. The red sox owner john henry also visited with jones manager buck show walter to apologize for the fan behavior face to face. Chenevey and president sam kennedy beefed up safe ski security and revoke fans tick rights for offensive language the a reminder where we are in society that this type of behavior still happens around the country. Its terrible. Im glad the red sox fans stood up if idiot at nats park said something or did something stupid and youre going to judge me because im a fan too thats completely unfair for some idiot to ruin it for everybody. Theyre in the wrong. Theres no excuse for it its terrible to do. Cc sabathia as deep as sox orioles rivalry s you cant do that. You can criticize their play on the field. Keep it on the feel but wow. To go racial for no reason. For no reason. I dont think that we can ignore the history of the city of boston. Right. Im disappointed because i love boston as city. But its well do you meaned that after the busing and all the city from the 60s to the 80. There seems to have always been this cloud hanging around the city of boston which is really disappointing. For me hearing that i was like well im in the surprised. Sadly. I know theyre good people everywhere but im not surprised that some idiots chose to do to do this. Can you imagine trying to pl play like me sitting here trying to do your job and you basically, you know, verbally assault me as im trying to do it. But what i was so encouraged with and what i choose to give the energy to is the majority of of the fans who stood up and were like, no, not in our town. Right. Thats not who we are. But isnt it bigger than just baseball too. Doesnt that happen all the all of a sudden everybody in that profession is horrible. Look at au. We see this one, hook knows how many people were beyond behind this maybe no of nobody. Maybe this one person but this one coward slinging around in the mill of the neat putting up bananas with the oldest black sorority on the heels of them we dont know if it was student or not. One person in the mill of the night. Yes. Au has to be in the headlines. Now theyre marched. Youre absolutely right. And that is the story the school releasing Surveillance Video of someone they call a person of interest you saw that video before perhaps well so it again. Some students say the school itself isnt doing enough to talk about the issue of racism on campus. Melanie has been on this story for two days now. Shes life with more. Mel . Reporter good morning and in less than an hour now the university is going to be hosting yet another campus wide meeting. This one at 10 00 oclock this morning. Theyre calling an anti racism campus conversation for they also just put out information trying to answer some of the criticism saying that, yes, indeed, this incident is now being classified as a hate crime. And that they brought in the mpd metropolitan police and fbi civil rights did he vision to help in the investigation. Au police having jurisdiction in this case. The video youre locking at was taken may first between 3 45 and 4 10 in the morning. Campus police say that the subject was possibly wearing a hat or mask and that he or she traveled from the quad area to the south side shuttle stop and may have gotten in a white or silver sedan near rock wood parkway. Those surveillance images were made public late yesterday after a very contentious meeting on campus at noon yesterday. And this was supposed to be a town hall meeting but many Students Walk out because they felt like they werent getting enough information. Then another straighters went to the crowd to try to address the students concerns oneonone. Many told u that the university seems to be issuing printed statements and press releases and Holding Private meetings, what they want is someone to speak out publicly and forcefully against what they see as a hate crime on campus. They really did more of the same which is, um, kind of just talking around the issue instead of actually addressing what they wanted to going forward. Reporter so monday as we know this is the incident that started it all. Bananas tied with strings that resembled nooses hung in at least three locations on campuses the word harambe and aka written on them referring to historic black sorority alpha cpa cal if a and two other banana incidents on campus last fall. A couple of points au put out this morning are aing the criticism. They are saying that on of the things that American University did this spring was they altered the campus code of conduct to include bias sort of an extenuating means they can impose harsher penalties on this but they also said they recognized that students and the Campus Community want more information but theyre hands are tied because federal laws protect student privacy when it comes to any sort of student code or disciplinary actions. However, they said that they are going to see what they can do to try to put more information out in a way that doesnt violate those privacy laws.

Back to you lets send it over to wisdom now. Special guest. Hey, wis. All right. Here i am. Flip the prompter pleases we can get this going. All right. Weve all seen the epic debates on National Television especially on shows like the vie and real time with bill maher. Well, back in february, fox personalities Gianna Caldwell rin charred fowler they engaged in fiery debate on fox and friends over President Trumps tweet on the state of violence in chicago. Take a look. Home audience doesnt know im from chicago i work in chicago. Chicago once a week and i can tell if you you talk the people of chic they would tell you that putting youre from evanston, richard youre from evanston. In order are to work the weather is like in chicago you got to read the newspaper. Youre not from chicago, bro. Thats in the true. Lets be very hahn honest. Youre providing information you dont even know the environment. You didnt live there. I lived on the south side of chicago bro. Bro. Wow. That debate gone viral gaining 8 million views and in a spirit of good sportsman jianne know is here. They settled their differences. Theyre using their experiences to inspire inner city youth. Jianne know and richard and ebony k. Williams created the power within tour. Theyll be traveling to inner cities to give personal narratives ton encourage the youth the tour kicked off in chicago and now they need your help to continue the mission this morning. Tour company creator and political commentator caldwell joins us now talk more about the position and how you can help. Bro. [ laughter ] youre not from chicago. Youre from the suburbs. Not at all. We cleared up that. Yall cleared it all up. Tell me about how this came to be. We know about the violence and everything thats happening in chicago. How did you guys mend fences and say this is something we need to tackle together . Its interesting. I have seen it first hand violence in people who have died, lost their their lives. Like a lot of folks around the country is seen and we seen the coverage. It was popping everywhere. We wanted to take something out of this viral moment and make something positive of it. You know arc lot of times we on television weve these viral moments and nothing more becomes of it we want to do really inspire the same people that we were talking about in that moment. Right. So how does it work . You go there. And you talk youve already done this in chicago once. We already did. What happened in chicago the group went there and they taled. So what happened . Richard fowler, ebony k. Williams mine self we gave our personal narratives. To give you a little taste up grew up on the south side of chicago my mom wasnt real in my live addicted to crack cocaine and heroin she gave custody temporary of custody to me and moo siblings to my grandmother in order to rehabilitate her herself. Grandmother was doing pretty well a car accident changed that to the point she was on dis dissable. Every Government Assistance Program you can imagine. Lights and gas and water off at the same time. But that message in telling my narrative to those saems students who see rapid violence in chicago who have no hope we want to inspire them to say although we came across all thee different obstacles, no one can stop them but them, and the power is within them to take it to the next level. Right. So you get together as group and you say these things and you talk about your inspiration. How do you keep that going once youre gone you say because it sounds good, thats an were able to come out of this. U once youre gone were actually mentoring a lot of these kids. Truthfully speak we can did all of this out our whole pocket. We pay hotel, flight out of our pocket. Were trying to raise money to continue the mission in detroit, compton, shall loll, North Carolina a bunch of different cities that need to hear this. So many communities rarely see examples like us that make it to National Television and speaking before millions of people on regular basis. So werent them to see the power what we call hidden ability which is potential to go beyond whatever theyre experiencing we want to push the message that theres nothing a stop them but themselves. How did you go about picking the cities baltimore, d. C. Are or the list as well. Charlotte is on there. How did you go about picking the cities that youll make your stops in. Looking for those really big inner cities. Right. The ones that are facing systemic issues which trump often talked about, how be it in a way i didnt necessarily agree with him forming it in that way but it was necessary issue to discuss. So these are cities that we see a lot of violence, poverty, students and people that need help. They need encouraging words and rarely have people that can give that to them and continue to stay in contact with them. This in is a onetime relationship. The relationship can continue if they want. We can keep in contact with them and thats what we intended to moving forward. How can people get involved in this. We have a gofundme page set up government to gofundme. Com enter my name jianne know caldwell at ebony k. Williams gofundme page pop up i think its right on the screen right now. Love everyones support we want to keep the Mission Going as much support we get well the money goes towards. Only expenses. Were not taking a fee for ourselves or anything like that. So it will cover the hotel, rental car, those kinds of things. Not anything towards us. Right. Last thing, you hope people take away from this the people youre speaking with take a iowa from this. Your current set of circumstances does not dictate your out come in life. The power is win to take it to the next level. All right. Bro,. Thank you bro. Brother wisdom d. Good to see you. Ive been to chicago. Okay. The drake hotel dont count, bro. [ laughter ] good to see you. Okay. I love that so much. That is so excellent. Thank you. How do you get the message to the people who need to hear it i love that so much. Coming up, why ryan see quest could be a steal for abc but late night show host Steven Cole Beryl under fire for anti trump rant. Wee go live to tmz for all the details next. Z2ay2z z16fz z2cpsz zi0z y2cpsy yi0y time for the fox beat and get the swoop right now. Lets do it for the people. Abc trying to lock down Ryan Seacrest in more ways than one. The band is in here honoring james brown but lets just say hes the hardest working man in show business. Today. Today. There we go. He just became kellys new least cohost. The network is trying to land one of his hit shows today too. For details charles live in los angeles. Good morning. Good morning, steve and allison, and Ryan Seacrest says thank you im sure. You just raised him to james brown level. I know. Theres a James Brown Tribute band in here today. Which is pretty cool for him. On his birthday. Awesome. Really. Feeling the vibes this morning, charles. Awesome. Hes hardworking man. Youre having a better morning than me. Im sorry. Its still early for you. Ryan seacrest signed on this is happening. This is a thing. And now another hit show that used to be on fox might be going to abc. Everybody wants a piece of american idol. The thing is barely been off the air but, yes, we found that abc entered the american oy dollar sweepstakes last week. They con contacted free mantle e Product Company for american idol, and made a bid on the show. Now, we told you last month both nbc and fox were trying, work in bidding war trying to get the show to come back. That fell apart because of core which is the co owner of american idol. But now abc wants it, and, yes they were interested in having ryan as well because at that point they already knew they had the deal going with seacrest to be with kelly ripa. So they just made sense for them but thats not going to work out because the free mantle told a abc, look, if you get the show its still has to be done in hollywood because its a hollywood show. I dont know how in the world ryan could possibly make that work. So if it goes to abc eventually, ryan probably will not be the host. Unless easy yetly michael strahan. You might be able to make both costs work. [ laughter ] p i dont know. Thats possible. Im not going to count him out yet. Idol really is the thing that stayed consistent besides the talent really was seacrest. Seacrest, right. Maybe they have to move kelly ripa to hollywood. Hey. I didnt realize the bidding war was so involved for idol. Its funny how things when they tend toei suddenly that new value just comes up. Yeah, the only reason it went away was money. It was still doing well in the ratings but the salaries were through the roof. So im sure someone thinks they can change that. All right. Somebody is in hot water Steven Colbert perhaps going little bit too far in his monologue talking about the president s first 100 days. Yeah. You know, couple nights ago Steven Colbert was really went hard at trump over his first 100 days end made a comment, i cant really use the language, but it was some people have reference to Vladimir Putins privates and the president s mouth and some people felt that this comment was extremely homophobic. Look, weve been debating it for a day now in our office, and look, i dont know i dont think that Steven Colbert is actually homophobic. But could the words he u taken that way and offend some people . I think absolutely. I think its going to be up to everyone to decide, but there are people who think colbert should apologize. By the way did he not. He went in last night and started attacking trump again. Didnt use that language but hes not going to back off the president. We know that. Let me ask you this charles. Whether it be the debate in the tmz newsroom youve had for 24 hours or the debate youre hearing come in from across the country. Is the bigger issue the whether or not this was homophobic slur or the fact that he youve this as a term talking about the president . Its more about it being homophobic slur. Everyone expects Steven Colbert to be extremely critical of the president. Its but, you know, i think people dont expect Steven Colbert to Say Something that might offend gay groups, and they just dont expect that from him. They do expect him to tack the president. So thats really where the debate is at this point. Lets finish out with tom brady. When he didnt go to his wife tweeted something that was not pro president trauma many people thought his wife made him stay home. But maybe not. Might learn that it might have just been for him to spend time with his mom who hes talk about is battling cancer. Yeah. Ever since tom brady did not show up with the patriots at the white house and President Trump did not mention tom brady at all in his remarks about the super bowl and theyre supposed to be friends, weve been thinking theres some sort of beef between them, for the first time tom brady actually said something about it while he was at the met gala and he was asked why he did didnt show up at the white house. He said look, you know, my mother mom has been very ill. It was my parents anniversary and i wanted to spend time with them. Now, we knew that but we we had sort of guessed that that was what was going on but then youre right, because of giselles tweet we thought maybe shes behind it and we know shes not a fan of President Trump but tom said any way that it was just giselle was not standing next to him when he said that, so i dont know that this necessarily settles it. I do think at the heart of it it was about his parents. Was giselle also happy he couldnt go . Probably. Shes fine with it. Probably. Shes made it very clear not a fan. We hope his mom is well. Do we know if he pick out his own tucks for the met gala that they know was quite sparkly. Okay. Now that im pretty sure that giselle had everything to do with. She said heres what youre going to wear, tom, because yeah. Were going to the met gala. Models event. Thats right. Yes. Exactly. Got to stan out. Charles, thanks.

We begin on capitol hill where a 1 trillion budget bill is set for a vote today. The house is set to officially vote on the spending measure to keep the government running through september. It will then got to senate where it must be approved before fridays ted deadline it comes after Harsh Criticism from President Trump who tweet a shut down is needed to fix what he calls a quote mess in congress. Meanwhile at the white house today, President Trump will host the leader of palestine. The twenty four expected to discuss the on hiv going mideast conflict with israel. Next up, take good look at this picture. This is 35yearold derek jones. Police say the maryland man used social media to have inappropriate relationship way 14yearold girl from ashburn, virginia. They say he provid transportation for the girl to travel from virginia to the Baltimore Area to meet him. The girls family later contacted police. Investigators say jones used the aliases kano and lee and goes to comic book conventions to meet teenage girls. And this story. Its news no Airline Passenger including myself wants to hear. And that is less leg room. American Airlines Says it is cutting one to 2inches off the front to back space in the economy. Now that means the distance between the seats will be smaller bathrooms on board those planes will also be smaller but the plains will be able to com date more passengers. United airlines is also rep reportedly considering cutting more leg room. So not loving that. This is just incredible video from china. Take look. As child darts out into traffic, passing over the left lane into the right where shes immediately struck a second car passes directly over the twoyearold as she lay in the street. The grazed but, get this, mack us willy she suffered no major injuries. Her parents say she had been running away from her grandmother right before that incident happened. Just crazy there as you take look at the screen. And finally, the latest chapter that is the drama between orioles and red sox takes a heated turn. This time Manny Machado unl unleashing a foul math rant at the red socks. The pitcher through a mall at his knee nearly hitting him. Heres what he had to say after the game. Get thrown at my bleep head. Get thrown bleep everywhere. Ive lot of respect for the organization for that Coaching Staff and everyone over there. If youre going to bleep hit me. Go ahead hit me. This isnt the first time the red sox target machado in one ann instance a fast ball that came close to his head led to the suspension of red sox pitcher matt barnes. Heated he can change right th there. He was given a warning. Again, this is its time for me to rant about baseball again. All you is part of the game, this is stupid. Youre throwing a ball 100 miles an hour hitting a guy whos standing still. It is childish. Its weapon. Its ridiculous. Not part of the game. You should evolve get away from whole mindset that youre going to paint the corners by hitting people. I just think its stupid. Youre throwing a baseball at somebody. If they took the bat and went out to the mound and handled their business, how would that go . Then it would be problem. Im just saying, knock it off. Major League Baseball and the people who are leading should stop this. You dont do this in little league. You cant do this in college. Why you allowed to do it in the pros. Why didnt the ump throw him out. Good question, allison. Oh. Good question. Good question. Im a little scared of wisdom right now. Me, too. Ive been on beating the drum on this for years. I think its silly. Its no different than like, you know, a professional fighter if he punches someone. It could be a felony because hands are a lethal weapon. Thats right. So thats youre throwing a ball 100 miles an hour at someone. Right. That is a lethal weapon. And good example in box, you still cant hit certain places still rules to this. Thats bocking. You cant hit below the belt in foxing. If football they evolved trying to cut out the whole head to head contact and that whole thing. In basketball the whole rugged foul knocking people. You can foul just the whole knocking people down to the ground you get in trouble for that. Why does baseball get a pass. All those people like this is just part of the game. This is old school. Its stupid. Do baseball get a pass for do the read sock get a pass. Everybody in baseball does this. The pitchers get mad. If you hit a homerun and you walk too slow around the bases or if you celebrate too much then the pitcher will hit you with pitch. Its stupid. Some of the pitchers dont even have to bat. So theres no consequence. So to me its just silly. Its immature. The leaders in baseball should stop this. They should not be allowed to throw the baseball at peoples heads and body parts and then just be like,h, i was going to rage on about airplane seats. Im afraid to say anything. Im good. Im out now. Im good now. Let us know what you think. Do you agree with wisdom. Chances are you probably do. Probably not. If youre the five baseball peers out there you may not. Listen that might be steve. Sorry. Lets talk about whats trending at 10 07.

This is soft b people put salt on water man this is the salt thats on the watermelon i add lime zest to them and i have smoked paprika. A little citrus to it a little zing and then off little smoked paprika that opens a palate with a little spice to it.
