when your opposition throws up a blockade, you can demolish it by force or chairmt the hell out of the way. prince charming did just that. he welcomed a couple frogs into the kingdom. pete welch and he high gentleman cummings for giddy when they left the white house. he's good at buttering up self-important staff. look at these before and after testimonials. lindsey graham hasn't minced words about the president, but even he's evolved. he's a jackass. i want to help president trump as much as i can because he's got a mess on his hand. kennedy: ted cruz made his own metamorphosis. >> you are you are a snivelinge heidi the hell alone. he posted a picture of his daughters with the president calling him warm and gracious. the president has his hands full with all of these eager suitors he has been working freedom-loving legislation towards. kentucky senator rand paul admitted he and donald had been playing healthcare footy. rand paul tweeted i'm sure my friend@rand paul will come along. the kentucky senator responded, i think we are wooing each other. he will use his power of persuasion. but that translates to more spending on things well beyond an appropriate governmental scope. let's just enjoy the butterflies until the bill comes and we pay the price with a love owner. i'm kennedy. can president trump bridge the nation's partisan divide? joining me is brian kilmeade. brian: i'm excited to see you in person because i see you in the halls and i see pictures. to talk about something that's not that controversial. it's something no one does anymore. talks to each other to listen to each other to find common ground. i think you outlined it wonderfully. the people he didn't know that well, disliked rand paul, what are you doing on this stage. ted cruz, lying ted. marco rubio came over for dinner. lindsey graham came over for lunch. that sound surreal. this all great and it shows such a different approach than president trump who didn't even -- than president obama who didn't even have democrats over. while donald trump was together "apprentice," the former president was in politics. congressman tom marino of pennsylvania. they were talking about healthcare, he said wait, you have never been in the white house? you have never went in oval office? they went over to see the oval office together. he did the same thing with trump tower. kennedy: the parade of people that came through in the lead-up between the elect and the inauguration. i this an actual shift or is this a clever ploy to get healthcare passed. >> i wouldn't say ploy. this was his entire life. kennedy: you met him and you know the charisma and power he has over people who have had massive disagreements with him. brian: if you walked up to him, he would say hi, kennedy and he would want to meet your husband and your kid. he knows people are impressed by that. you want to impressed people that your loved one has that type of access. kennedy: he's using the aura of the presidency and power of the oval office to bring people in and soften them where they have been so dug in that they refused to work them. now on things like frastrlook like they are ing to. brian: i think theought to work with him on healthcare. it's nice to get the call and the attention. but you have to produce something. kennedy: i want to ask about healthcare. we saw paul ryan go through his power point presentation. some found it boring. some found it useful. healthcare. who is it more important for? the president or speaker ryan? brian: speaker ryan. if this congress blows it, the congress won't be there and they will have power. this president will do deals with the president. he has elijah cummings over to the white house saying i'm concerned about prices of prescription drugs. the final plan doesn't include any of that in phase one, phase two, phase three, that he's just there for show, that's it. i think phase three if i'm correct you need the 60 votes in the senate. if they can get momentum like they did in two committees today, if they can get it done in the house and make changes. the way it looks right now. they have to have some give. they have to do some listening. they have six pliable democratic senators. kennedy: thank you very much for being here. kennedy: let me bring in my four-wheel drive party panel, democratic strategist kmele foster, chris baron, founder of lgbt for trump, welcome, everyone it's a night of beauty, glory and brains. the administration has begun to sketch out its $1 trillion infrastructure plan. will we see bipartisan support for the president. we are told the plan involves favoring renovation of existing roads and bridges over new construction, and pressuring states to streamline local permitting. according to the "wall street journal" the president said we are not going to give the money to states unless they can prove that they can be ready. is the project feasible? jessica, the president says this has to be revenue neutral. i think when you are talking about infrastructure spend and you have a populist president and foaming democrats on both side, they don't care about revenue, they just want to spend the money. jessica: democrats like to spend money. i think he will have more trouble with his own side. he needs to be careful about schumer and pelosi playing him off his own party and trying to cause feuds so they can leverage and get what they wanted. bridges to nowhere, bring it. but donald trump doesn't have really -- he has a lot of friend consider. kennedy: why do democrats want to spend money we don't have then you saddle them with taxes. it's like taking poor people to dell frisco's. kmele. we are starting to see some fish yous when you talk about infrastructure between the freedom caucus which is fun, and abi and all these conservative cost kirts. what happens with struck around spending. kmele: from a political standpoint i suck at prognostication.when donald true nomination i gave that whole thing up. but gimmickry is likely ahead when it comes to the budget. he wl want to say that trillion dolr number. shovel-ready projects is basically code for totally wasteful government programs. kennedy: how can it be anything but that when the government is in charge. kmele: we saw that with the government's stimulus with the old president. conservatives used to care about this sort of thing and rail against it. now it's their guy. kennedy: i know you love and admire the president, infrastructure spending, is it necessary to stick taxpayers with this massive bill? chris: we are not going to stick taxpayers with this massive bill. the only way we can pay for infrastructure is new federal dollars. if you are not for that you are for collapsing bridges. that's not true. cato and reason have been laying out ways to get government out of the airport business. there are free market ways to do this. fast lanes, technology. public-private partnership. it doesn't to be that we don't do anything. we need to do something on infrastructure. i wish trump would have done infrastructure first. kennedy: you are right to point out at the reason foundation, they have done phenomenal research. let's shift to that bottle blond beauty wikileaks founder julian assange holding and online conference to explain why he's releasing the characteristics a's cyber spying tools. yesterday he began dumping thousands of files detailing how u.s. spies can crack into smart phones, computers and televisions. this morning nebraska republican ben sasse says assange should spend the rest of his life wearing an orange jumpsuit. take politics and assange out of it if you are able to. camille: we have these devices. it's not only intelligence officials that know about these deficiencies. when apple heard about these leaks, their response was most these things have been plugged already. there is a constant battle between software makers and hackers. the government noise different when they do this. this is different. kennedy: do you think silicon valley has better hackers than the cia? kmele: it's hard to say. it's just that there are some that are totally mercenary criminals. but we should have protection for our software. kennedy: we learned from vault 7 that the cia had program that would intercept programs before encryption even kicked in. it's scary. jessica: i like to believe the best in our government officials. i know that's probably naive. they say it's not as if we are going into everyone's forbes and televisions. that's kinds of how the report came out. you are -- that's not how it is. i think obviously -- you are right about the hacker's war. it comes down to how much people are paid. it's an issue of getting great people into the government across the board. if you go to one of these silicon valley companies. kennedy: do you agrees with ben sasse that assange should be in an orange jumpsuit? chris: i'm terrified that the leaks are happening and i'm terrified of the substance of the leaks. i can't figure out what i'm more terrified about it's bad across the board. kennedy: i don't think assange is a hero. i don't see him as a digital folk hero. i think he's a narcissist. i think's a storeio path. i think the guy -- i think's a sociopath. i don't think assange bad, government intelligence apparatus good. chris: it's not clear hot good guys and bad guys are. frightening enough it may all be bad guys. kennedy: i'll ask dr. ron paul about julian assange in a bit. are the conversations you have with your lawyer about your spouse private? some college professors stage an experiment to try to prove that hillary clinton lost the election because of sexism. wait until you hear how it backfired. dearthere's no other way to say this. it's over. i've found a permanent escape from monotony. together, we are perfectly balanced. our senses awake. our hearts racing as one. i know this is sudden, but they say...if you love something set it free. see you around, giulia kennedy: there is quote no such thing as absolute privacy in america. that from our f.b.i. director james comey in a cyber security conference at boston college. he said even our communications with our spouses, with our clergy members and attorneys are not absolutely private in america. and he added a judge can compel anybody to testify about our most private and personal communications. while he may be speak from a purely legal stand point, is this the direction our nation should be going where we can't even talk to a priest without worrying about the feds? thanks, director comey. mollie hemingway joins me. welcome. >> great to be here. kennedy: should we be worried about privacy and its total sacrifice at so-called altar of security? >> absolutely. we don't have an expectation of absolute privacy so make sure when you are talking to a priest or attorney, make sure they are willing t keep the information private. we accepted the surveillance state at local, state and federal level. or nsa pick up meta data on millions of americans. kennedy: or the nsa reading every email transmission that comes in and out of this country. mollie: the distance between the government and the people is even greater and there is a secretive bureaucracy that's powerful and doesn't feel the need to be transparent about what it's doing. kennedy: you said you used to hear people say do what you want, it's a free country. >> i heard that all the time when i was growing up. you would be told, it's a free country, people dock what they want. that's the not happening anymore. you don't hear that statement or sentiment or that general way of life it's tide in as who we are as americans, this idea we get to live our lives the waive we wanted whitewater without oppression from the government it's fading. kennedy: i think the implication from the f.b.i. director is there is no such thing as absolute privacy, therefore you shouldn't expect any privacy. it seems that's the next step for him and we are losing quite a few hops in the middle and that's not okay. people should not give up the fight for privacy and the freedom that is implied it in it. mollie: the government needs to make it clear that they don't have the right to have access to your tv, your home, who you are calling, why you are calling. that's scary. we should be on guard. kennedy: it's become non-fiction and it's scary. and people can't give up the good fight, even when the top law enforcement guy in the country says, maybe you should. mollie, thank you so much for being here. love your writing as always. would you support big government fit meant saving humanity? he cording to steven hawking we may not have a choice. and it has to do with killer robots. i'll ask dr. ron paul what he thinks. stick around for it. alories fro. with more great tasting beverages with less sugar or no sugar at all, smaller portion sizes, clear calorie labels, and signs reminding everyone to think balance before choosing their beverages. we know you care about reducing the sugar in your family's diet, and we're working to support your efforts. more beverage choices. smaller portions. less sugar. balanceus.org. why pause a spontaneous moment? cialis for daily use treats ed and the urinary symptoms of bph. tell your doctor about your medicines, and ask if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take cialis if you take nitrates for chest pain, or adempas® for pulmonary hypertension, as this may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. do not drink alcohol in excess. to avoid long-term injury, get medical help right away for an erection lasting more than four hours. if you have a sudden decrease or loss of hearing or vision, or an allergic reaction, stop taking cialis and get medical help right away. ask your doctor about cialis. kennedy: what are you more afraid of, robots destroying humanity or a sinister one-world government inflating us all? according to legendary astrophysicist steven hawking is the only way to prevent the former is with the latter. he says artificial intelligence will grow so powerful it will turn against us, it has no choice. but the man with the computerized voice warns to curb the threat of a robot uprising, we are done for. so is the biggest big government answer to humanity's demise? let me ask dr. ron paul. welcome back, dr. paul. let's talk about this. first we should address the threat of an increase in technology. robot uising something we should fear? ron: i would say no. i don't think so. i think we need to fear more from an uprising of too much government. that's my biggest fear. that it's too intrusive. so if the government creates problems, you can't solve those problems by creating more government. he raises a fascinating question about the direction civilization is going. we developed so many things that helped people. but he make its point, you can have nuclear power to blow you have the world. but it has to do with the individual. i think we accepted this principle that we as individuals should not use aggression toward our fellow man, but unfortunately our governments still do and that's where i seat problem. kennedy: dr. hawking says there is the possibility artificial intelligence will grow so powerful that it will naturally become aggressive. i suppose it depends on your view of human nature or intelligent nature in general. are intelligent beings implicitly good or implicitly aggressive? what do you think? >> i think intelligence is basically good. but i don't think machines can take over for the intellectual and personal moral responsibility of the individual. i see that liberty solves so many of these problems. they gave abundance, but then they gave us a choice. i think the next move for civilization which is very, very young. we need to do something because we have had great technological advances but we already started killing each other. and the nukes are still around. the only answer to that is that we develop a belief that the human race should accept the principle of non-aggression against individuals. there is a bit of that around. most people accept that. but nobody wants to think about maybe it's the government committing aggression. maybe it fact that governments start all the wars that are all the problems it's not the technology per se, it's the human being. it often makes me think of guns don't kill, people kill. and technology doesn't kill, it's the people behind it. so the technology is very, very dangerous it's out there right now and could blow up the world unless we advance to another stage where liberty brings more non-aggression. kennedy: speak of liberty and technology and aggression, i have to ask you, we only have 30 seconds left. what is your gut telling but the latest wikileaks regarding the cia? ron: i think it indicates liberty is in big trouble. the fact that we are getting this information out is fantastic. the ed snowdens are heros to tip us off. but it tells you how bad it is. all this revelation, have we heard people on the major network yelling and screaming and warning us? do you know what's happening? do you know what they are doing? no, you don't hear that. people need to prize their privacy. the cia is part of the government. the government created this. there were a lot of people early on including the president who signed the built, truman, he said he would never have don't if he had ever known. kennedy: this what eisenhower said when he was leaving his post as president in his farewell address. coming up, some progressives blaming donald trump's victory over hillary clinton on sexism. a recent gender experiment found no, her ideas were unbearable. we'll explain when the party panel returns next. ooohh!! aaaahh!! uh! hooooly mackerel. wow. nice. strength and style. it's truck month. get 0% financing for 60 months plusind your tag and get $5500 on select chevy silverado pick-ups when you finance with gm financial. find new roads at your local chevy dealer. you may know what it's like to deal with high... and low blood sugar. januvia (sitagliptin) is a once-daily pill that, along with diet and exercise, helps lower blood sugar. januvia works when your blood sugar is high and works less when your blood sugar is low, because it works by enhancing your body's own ability to lower blood sugar. plus januvia, by itself, is not likely to cause weight gain or low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). januvia should not be used in patients with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. tell your doctor if you have a history of pancreatitis. serious side effects can happen, including pancreatitis which may be severe and lead to death. stop taking januvia and call your doctor right away if you have severe pain in your stomach area which may be pancreatitis. tell your doctor right away and stop taking januvia if you have an allergic reaction that causes swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, or affects your breathing or causes rash or hives. kidney problems sometimes requiring dialysis have been reported. some people may develop severe joint pain. call your doctor if this happens. using januvia with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. to reduce the risk, your doctor may prescribe a lower dose of the sulfonylurea or insulin. your doctor may do blood tests before and during treatment to check your kidneys. if you have kidney problems a lower dose may be prescribed. side effects may include upper respiratory tract infection, stuffy or runny nose, sore throat, and headache. for help lowering your blood sugar talk to your doctor abou javia. kennedy: when you hear david bow why it's a birm. you are absolutely right. donald trump wouldn't election because he's the david buttive politics or mayor case sexist, d so goes the reasoning the liberals use to explain why hillary clinton lots election. actors were hired to portray actors with reverse genders. here is a look at a female playing trump and a male playing clinton. >> you know if you did win, you would approve that and that would be almost as bad. >> that is just not accurate. i was against it once it was finally negotiated and the terms were laid out. >> you came the gold standard of trade. kennedy: the audience assumed the -- professors assumed the audience would balance can a --t balk at a woman playing trump jessica: i didn't even hate her. i was one of the hillary fans that admitted her messaging was terrible throughout this. i think there was sexism at play for sure. that's part of what's interesting about this. when you are watching the debates. the dynamic in size made a huge difference during those debates. donald trump is 6'4" and she is 5'3", 5'4". kennedy: i vote for donald. jessica: there was a dynamic based on physicality thatted off people to donald trump. today. >> how seriously can we take this? i care about our society. i'm deeply concerned about the fact that voters aren't making the determinations based on if the policies work. they don't know much about the science behind climate change. if you look the thing that's likely to indicate how voted for in the elect, it's partisan affiliation. kennedy: i have not touched marijuana since i was 14. i have not. so not surprised. chris: the main dream media drooled over hillary clinton versus performances. after every one of the debates my pushback was she came across as the smartest kid in class. but the smartest kid in class never got voted as the most popular. everybody hated them. jessica: why shouldn't the smartest kid in the class be president of the united states of america. kennedy: ways aleppo? would you rather marry ryan reynolds orion gossling? jessica: ryan reynolds. kennedy: ryan gosling? chris: before that he was soft and vanilla. kennedy: it's a beautiful, wonderful panel. chris, kmele and jessica. is jeff sessions about to lead the crusade against marijuana, and does he plan to ramp up the failed drug wars?

yawn: he's back in the 70s and 80s when the war on drugs started. this is not an effect i have strategy for law enforcement. even though he's framing it as there is a new sheriff in town, there are conservatives like orrin hatch and rand paul the libertarian from kentucky saying we want to reduce jail populations, especially for people involved with non-violent crime. sessions makes the case he thinks there is a spike in some places in violent crime and attributes it to the lack of mandatory sentencing. kennedy: it was the three strikes law and the law and order push in the early 90s that eviscerated an entire generation particularly for black men. juan: it's blacks and hispanics heavily. a lot of young white men. i just -- i wonder why sessions feels it's needed. does he think it's speaking to his political base or president trump's political base? kennedy: the president said he would run as a law and order president. and when you are talking about restrictionism and limiting immigration and making america safer and better, those things seem to make sense. when you point specifically at the drug war and what a fail either' been and how we have to shift our perception of dplugs this country, drugs are still bad, drugs ruin people's lives. but that doesn't mean you throw them in prison and make the problem better. that's not rehabilitation. that's eroding society and making these problems much, much worse, creating black markets and creating a criminal element where there is no recourse where people have no choice but to participate in criminal activity. juan: not on is it drugs, we are thinking air win, cocaine, sessions is also aiming his fire apparently at marijuana laws. apparently some senators have said he's not going to do it. but he has given indications he was not going to play ball like the obama folks and allowing the states despite all the conversation you hear from trump's folks about state's rights. they were going into the states and push back. > kennedy: there is a reason people in all of these states are voting for medical and recreational marijuana. let that play out this heavy handed refiring up of the drug war it's toxic, it's dangerous. juan: i don't think trump supporters really want this. i don't. kennedy: i will speak for them. they don't. i hope they don't. coming up, are wild garden offices ransacking the contents your bucket? scientists he invented a lid to stop them. kennedy: bead hold the glorious explosions of rib-tickling visual oddities. it's that good. this is the "topical storm." topic number one. dogs are not only empathetic and smart, they communicate with licks and snuggles and yes even words. if you ever heard a siberian husky say blah, blah, blah while it nagging owner scolds the blue-eyed bastard. i don't want to hear it anymore. mom, i know i gone it wrong box. stop talking. he wanted to cover his ears while going blah, blah, blah. i file, buddy. is is a unique trait. topic number two. just go ahead. i have broken into dozen of zoos throughout my career. but my favorite kind of zoo remains the petting zoo because you can get right next to the animals like this lady. she's been bucket bug i ared. smiles for the camera nancy. kennedy: her name is eileen. she is visiting south africa's western cape. and those birds are another riches. you have to be very careful with wildlife. even cute, cuddly animals can become aggressive when provoked. topic number 3. everybody loves cook yet is. which makes "sesame street"'s cookie monster working through an entire century of sweets a heart-warming romp. here is a taste. >> the sugar cookie. these are good. this is from the 1950s. crack into a fortune cookie. kennedy:he cookie monster wa my commencement speaker in 2005. everybody loves cookie monster, but he's a monster. it's built right into his name. don't you remember when he tear right and killed those 60s teenagers?
