may be missing their flights because of the tsa's performance. one of the best examples of government waste on treadmills, we will look at the congressional pig book. the golden state warriors winning their 73rd game of the season setting a new record for the most games won in a single season and an end of an era in los angeles, kobe bryant going out with a bang scoring 60 points, all the highlights coming up. we are on it. jpmorgan set the tone yesterday with better-than-expected numbers, futures looking at a possible pullback. big rally in stocks. in asia gained across the board on the heels of that triple digit move for us stocks. the nikkei and japan up 3-numfour%. european stocks today, the s&p down a fraction. 25 points hire, although stories coming up in the program, dagan mcdowell and michael bloch, good to see you, you are just back from rome and we want to hear about it. maria: chris collins is with us, the chairman of donald trump's presidential campaign, retired general and fox news military analyst jack keane with us and to have a smiley stops by and ron paul coming up as well. you don't want to miss it. as for battle for new york heating up, presidential hopefuls on both sides of the spectrum hitting the republican front-runner donald trump. >> donald is unhappy about this. he has been yelling and screaming and stomping his foot and an awful lot of whining and the simple reality is anytime the people vote against donald he screams the voters are stealing the election. that is actually how elections work, the voters choose. maria: the front runner for the front -- the nomination was asked in a television interview, david duke and other white supremacists supporting the campaign he played coy, the same donald trump who led the insidious birther movement to delegitimize resident obama, called mexican immigrants, rapists and murderers, wants to ban muslims from entering the united states and the list goes on. >> this campaign is about the understanding when we stand together and asian americans. when we do not allow donald trump to divide us there is nothing we cannot accomplish. maria: despite the push back donald trump standing by his opinion blasting the republican party's corrupt system at townhall with sean hannity last night. >> politicians, i am funding my own campaign. joining us fox news contributor with us this morning, good to see you. what is your take on all this? he continues on the system is corrupt. >> a couple things are happening. the trump campaign did not understand this entire system. hillary clinton did not understand it in 2008, barack obama did. he worked it and got the nomination. it was remarkable because to a degree he has benefited from this process far more than he has been hurt. if you are in a winner take all state, he has taken these delegates. trump is coming dangerously close to undermining his frontrunner status come he remains the front runner but by talking like this i think he has anticipated falling short of what he said he was going to get. maria: he is connecting with people who look at the system and people in the states, not really republican national committee problem, people within the states who are diehard republicans, not just colorado but feel they don't have a voice, the way the party leadership has set up these rules state-by-state, it is foul and flawed, if he can connect with those people who might not have been trump supporters -- >> you are right on the fairness point. it is somehow unfair. he has not had a lot of primary wins lately, something that animates the populist diaspora in the republican party, let's talk about fairness. on the democratic side superdelegates are party elders, party official. on the republican side when talking about delegates you are talking about activists, people being hand selected. maria: the rules have been in place a long time and most people lose rules. >> like playing games, it is not all fundamentals but it seems like trump is playing this game, and has twisted the knife a little bit. then it gets me, the whole thing is rigged. colorado and this process why is it allowed to happen. to undermine hillary, and closer to the nomination no matter what. as far as i am concerned -- maria: trump's pressure. we are viewing in on this. and i said last night, he takes lemons and makes great alcohol, delicious -- it is better than lemonade. >> he doesn't do anything without doing it deliberately. he knows the system, figured it out. and pretty much flipping the card table over. maria: he is not going to be prosecuted. it will be announced this afternoon by palm beach county, what are your thoughts on this? >> it was an unfortunate incident, and required a prosecutor. maria: looking at the video. it is a rough-and-tumble trail. i think corey lewandowski should have apologized immediately, and to have created this kind of criminal element around misconduct, it was a stretch too far and shows the problem with the trump campaign but no humility, no contrition, no moment of saying we may have done something wrong. dagen: if that is not the national image, and people who watch us and follow on twitter, we reported this news about corey lewandowski the way we reported the initial move and legal move, they will not be charged. on both sides of it. >> i was never a fan of the pilon created as a result. both sides are not completely in the right, and it was a right outcome and don't prosecute a guy, i have been there. sometimes you do things spur of the moment. bernie sanders and hillary clinton joining the picket lines, verizon workers, speaking in support of the workers who are striking against verizon in new york city. >> just a poster child, so many corporations are doing today. in this campaign, sending a message to corporate america, you cannot have it all. maria: >> engage in real stations. this has been going on for months and to come to the table and reach an agreement, workers here, i know from that in my senate years still workers and deserve to have a fair contract. maria: throw the fuel on the fire. mc adam issued a stern response, calling sanders views uninformed and just plain wrong, goes on to say our financial statements show we have paid more than $15.6 billion in taxes the last two years, 35% tax rate in 2015 for anyone counting. according to mrs. clinton's tax records she was paid 2 $25,000 for speech she gave in 2013. she has that and here she is on the verizon picket line. >> the inauthenticity of her message is being revealed, why bernie sanders won eight of the last tween 9, no one is buying hillary clinton as champion of the worker. you can have your misgivings about bernie sanders, has a deep-seated belief and knows how to articulate it in a way that is genuine and authentic but bernie sanders has been successful, he wrote a letter to treasury secretary jack lew against the merger between pfizer and allegan, guess what happened two weeks ago? they changed regulations to make it impossible for that merger to happen. bernie sanders has his finger on this populist progressive part and hillary is tone deaf. for anyone who doesn't think his candidacy whether he wins the nomination or not is not going to have an adverse impact on her level of enthusiasm among his base is not analyzing this properly. dagen: what about adverse impact on business? kudos to mc adams for stepping up and calling out what is a lack of economic reality. we can talk about it as the morning goes on. these workers make an annual benefit package of $130,000 and they have been offered a 6.5% cash wage increase, they don't even want to lay off jobs, just change the work rules. this is the wireline business, the rotary phone business, fiber-optic internet service, a shrinking percentage of operating income at the company. when -- these are not little guys, these are union workers, the fight for 15 rally going on outside in a state that has already taken the minimum wage to $15 an hour. it is about unionizing private businesses, part of the progressive movement and it is dangerous for job creation in a country where the economy can't grow. maria: fuel on the fire like that. >> good luck creating jobs and growth in that mindset. everyone should be taken care of, you can admire sanders's authenticity. maria: leave that question out there. thank you so much. coming up a record date for the nba as stefan curry and the warrior steal the spotlight and kobe bryant riding into the sunset, we will hear from the legend himself and jack nicholson coming up. help wanted at tsa as long lines cause thousands to miss their flights, the government agency is scrambling to fix staffing issues ahead of the travel season, tell you about it next. e*trade is all about seizing opportunity. and i'd like to... cut. so i'm gonna take this opportunity to direct. thank you, we'll call you. evening, film noir, smoke, atmosphere... bob... you're a young farmhand and e*trade is your cow. milk it. e*trade is all about seizing opportunity. this just got interesting. why pause to take a pill?

rise in america due in large part to premiums that the affordable health care act. americans are turning to short-term health policies as an alternative to plants purchased through the exchanges. in fact, sales of short-term plans last year were 150% higher than in 2013. joining us now to explain the move toward short-term policies as firmware new york lieutenant governor and the author of beating obama cared, betsy mccoy appeared good to see you. you brought along the affordable care act. >> it's not so affordable which is why consumers are fleeing to short-term plans. the reason is they don't want to pay for all the costly and unwanted benefits granted to this law. >> this is 2000 pages. one of the things people were saying when they were pushing this through as the lawmakers didn't even rate it. dagen: how could they read it? when you piece together this kind of hideous patchwork quilt of laws, you don't really know the outcome. we are just beginning to see even with the cadillac health care tax it was supposed to be put in and it got kicked out and delayed a little bit because lawmakers are worried, particularly democrats but that will do to the cost of the employer health insurance market. maria: walk us through what's been happening. >> this is what i professor president must say it teachable moment. two of the lessons are americans don't want a one size fits all washington decide health plan that includes things like pediatric and adult care if you don't have kids come with maternity care if you're a man or a family to want to have kids. substance abuse programs if nobody in your family has any desire to take drugs. you are forced to pay for all those things. it is one of the things that made the plan so available. don't try to sell the same plans to someone who is healthy for the same price. it's like saying i can read a chihuahua and a great game for the same price. you just can't. 5% consume 50% of the health care because they are very sick. you can't sell plans to sick and healthy people for the same price for the healthy people run away. true to some and more americans choose to short-term health policy. is that what people should be doing? >> if you are young and healthy and you don't plan to get pregnant. because the something guy for that happens, you are legally entitled to sign up for the affordable care act. maria: if you go for the short-term plan, you get a penalty. >> you get a penalty. the short-term plans are less than a third of the price. after you add the penalty it is still a good deal. you can't buy them in new york. you can't buy them in massachusetts. in some states people are literally captive to their own state laws that prevent them from buying affordable plans as well. >> are in a lawmakers talking about the short-term plan getting a penalty? >> chances are the do-gooders in states like california will try to make them illegal once they realize what's going on. >> is a cut in the binder in half? >> repealing about mccarran letting them choose the health insurance they want. >> if republican gets elected in the white house, this is a train -- >> you don't think it will happen? >> i think it's hard to completely rip it off. >> you are wrong. 11 million people out of a population of 318 million have signed up for plans. it is miniscule. in fact, obama hair is already made death spiral. maria: hillary clinton says she's not going to appeal about medicare. >> five out of the six big insurers have signaled they are heading for the exit because they are trying to sell these. dagen: this all goes to the point is how do you pay for this when you have people who are sick whom are paying more money for their policy. they have tried to make out the individuals as part of a math cover the cost of people who are very, very ill. some of them to take care of themselves. it does somewhere. >> that's right. a 30-year-old man stuck with a bronze plan that is a $6000 deductible per person is never going to get a penny back for all the premiums you pay us. umass will pay for car payments instead. >> the crazy thing is just too big health insurance mergers to help economies of scale to get these guys going and make a survivable and as for shame and other regulators with the same allies are saying you can't march us. maria: before you go, we've been talking a lot about high tax states where people are leaving in droves. david tepper is leaving new jersey. >> new york, connecticut. maria: becoming lieutenant governor of new york, the tax story -- >> they are voting with their feet. connecticut is the latest. the populace is leaving connecticut. taken a nosedive in connecticut. new york a little less a game a little tax relief to the middle class. it is not great. new york is one of the heaviest tax states. the whole northeast corridor has been antibusiness aura about it. they are controlled by democrats in by democrats and are taxing the heck out of everybody. maria: betsy,

the metal detector. maria: that's why you spend the time to do the background check. they've never open the line. maybe it's a staffing issue. >> part of its staffing issue. the tsa misstep in the

sell for me. it's not going to sell for 10. maria: do you think it's a buyers market? >> it is definitely. because of the record-breaking prices that sellers were getting two years ago. they are still expect dean to have the same results and because of the over supply to the market futures, buyers are little bit more careful and calculated and they are no longer paying the prices they were paying before and setters are starting to see that. maria: what do people want in the luxury apartment or home? are there other things that compensate for a few lower the price that i need this. >> it

selling for 15% to 20% discount. the buyers are not desperate and they can afford to wait so they become more patient. the more patient the real sellers start to drop prices and the ones that are not

with a blog friday called bernie chalabi at danger zone. russian warplanes flying dangerously close to a military warship. general jack keane will weigh in on these developments and continue to break

me, dagen mcdowell and rhino trading partners daniel block. bank of america was got to talk about. we've got lots to talk about this morning. congressman chris collins is the honorary new york cochairman of the presidential campaign. retired general fox news analyst jack keane with us and from pbs, author cap :-). and also presidential former presidential candidate ron paul. stay with us for those interviews. the war of words escalated as candidates make their final push ahead of the year primary to a bank. big mac at politicians. i don't know if you folks know but i'm finding my own campaign. they hate that. we have to bring their daughter back into it. the bad part is i could win. maria: donald is very unhappy about it. he's been yelling and screin an lo whining. and the simple reality is that many times the people vote against donald, he screams the voters are stealing the election. well, that's actually how elections work. the voters choose maria: august is donald trump as to what conservative lawmakers. the republicans already in first researcher. those representatives are encouraged to bring colleagues who may be one to throw support behind the trend campaign. true to me now is congressman a campaign cochairman chris collins. good to see you. thanks for joining us. >> at a journey this morning. maria: does talk about the meeting but donald trump is coming to meet with colleagues. what would you like to take this morning? >> we are seeing donald trump's campaign is transitioning into reaction mode. we will have to face hillary clinton in the fall. we need to be united in our efforts to advance his reaching out to lawmakers to record and districts around the country are sure we are carrying the message of his time for america, getting jobs back and standing up to her enemies including russia, especially what you saw yesterday. it's a very natural transition. he's adding folks to his staff to deal with the delicate issue come convention time. this is a campaign maturing in moving forward and we know that on tuesday the 95 delegates that come out of new york are really going to give him momentum to what we hope will be the 1237 number. maria: why do you think it's been so tough to get your colleagues on the trump campaign? what's stopping them? >> if you look at the 247 republican members of congress, most of them don't endorse presidential candidates. maybe 30 or 40 word. but a couple hundred will say all politics is local. i have my own issues that i'm running for reelection this year 2016. the minute you endorse someone you put yourself at odds with a big donor or someone else in your district. most members are cautious and they are running for reelection. i will support the republican candidate. come november to defeat hillary clinton. let's see who our candidate will be and then they moved into their own election. maria: day again. dagen: congressmen coming to think think the voting rolls in places like colorado, is this a bigger change based on what the voting public has seen and how flawed the system ends. flawed as this kind word. >> maria, the system is different in every state. new york has 27 congressional districts and 14 delegates depending if a candidate gets 50%. ohio is winner take all. colorado was in a way just the political bosses picking the delegates if you will. that is what it is. it is a hodgepodge around america and it just is what it is. each state created their own rules. we have to play by those rules. you may not like them in each case, but our focus right now is new york. mr. trump is in a position to win on 95 delegates. that is the momentum he needs to start getting near the 1237 number. maria: when you make of the campaign manager cory lewandowski will not be prosecuted. the palm beach county state attorney. what are your thoughts on the whole situation? >> to me that was just an overly aggressive individual trying to take this matter where it lost to anyone that saw the video simply saw mr. trump's campaign manager was running interference if you will but a very, very aggressive press corps that day. there was no assault going on. it is a shame that it had to reach the point it was that the media jumping all over it. in fact, things like that happen. there's actually a bit of a sympathy that are that the public starts to think people are picking on mr. trump. he's been held to a different standard than the other candidate. at some point we say enough is enough. let's move beyond this. >> congressmen, the game right now is get to 1237. get the nomination. what is the priority within the trump camp? is that extending the party commissioning of willingness to work together are more appealing to the people as these unsuccessfully to this point. >> this continues to be an appeal to the voters as we have new york coming up. pennsylvania, new jersey, california near the end of the cycle. mr. trump will continue to focus on is energized base, especially emphasizing securing borders, getting jobs back to national defense. that is still the communication that will occur. in every case other than colorado, it is the voters choosing their candidate and had the delegate. at the same time, you need a dual track to make sure and some of the additions to mr. trump's campaign by making sure he is not caught unaware at the convention. hopefully we'll get this done on the first ballot. if they moved into a second or third, that is in the rules are basically thrown out the window and becomes a free-for-all. as we move forward, mr. trump's campaign staff will have to grow and all of this is really a campaign maturing and one that a lot of this field will be the candidate. the operation to two other members of congress and to bring them on board what exactly it is we are doing. the same team come november. >> they are clashing with police outside a trump rally. he took a moment to blast the protester. i want to get your reaction, sir. >> let me see who is that person. raise your hand. are you an agitator? let me see. who is it? are you the one? your voice is very weak. look, he's leaving now. who is he? he's going home to mommy. maria: what about that, congressman? would you make about that? he said trump is being held to a different higher standard. is it because of things like this? >> again, all of us running for president have trackers, protesters. the first time i first time a man is in a chicken suit because i was not debating my opponent. politics is politics. to call out a protester is actually a very effect is way to communicate with your crowd that there's somebody perhaps disrupting the campaign. the other one that did that effectively was chris christie. he's always been known as a tough talking blunt speaking individual and frankly that's what the public wants from the nonpolitician. the chief executive will call people out. career politicians are a little more cautious. people are saying the time for caution has come and gone. the massive the country is in today as we want someone that is chris christie's. i applaud mr. comfort given up, calling him an out. an individual turns to amaze, what does that tell you? maria: congressmen, thanks so much for joining us. thank you. later today and fox business, turn to blake burman's interview where cory lewandowski, we will hear the knowledge that he is not going to be charged. you will stay with us for the interview. the democratic candidate hillary clinton bernie sanders continued their

devastating 3 million-gallon toxic mines bill. it poisoned the water supply thousands of people. a federal investigation blamed the epa for this bill. senate republicans are planning a field hearing next week and for the first time in 12 years the committee plans to subpoena the head of the environmental protection agency. gina mccarthy to appear at the hearing. senator john barrasso can't epa response to this bill unacceptable. he joins us from washington d.c. good to see you. thanks for joining us. it's unbelievable jayna mccarthy made a statement the other day and is something along the lines that the republicans win the election, we are going to dig in better than ever before. no mention in terms of the epa's performance and how they just don't take responsibility for it. >> no, they caused this bill. it has been devastating to the communities and states involved and we are having this hearing next friday which is earth day. instead, president obama and jayna mccarthy went to be in new york to sign the agreement from the paris climate deal when the epa caused the poisoning of a river in the united states. it's completely irresponsible. maria: how did the epa do it? walk us through what happened and what mistakes were made. >> it was a claim that. they knew there was an area under pressure and yet the people working there under the control of the epa caused the disaster. the spill occurred and they didn't notify people because this is not an area where people would've seen it. the communities downstream that weren't informed. the tribes were not informed extended periods of time. the mustard orange colored poison and this is the river which people live, where their trinket water comes from and toxic chemicals are fair. maria: way of looking at the pictures right now and it disgusting. dagen mcdowell, in other words they did this and try to lie about it and hide it. dagen: absolutely. senator, what do you want to happen from these hearings? what do you want the epa to do about it? >> they've been irresponsible in a number of ways good right now we need to have testing to know how the water is at any given time so people can know when they can use it and when they can't use it. the epa has been slow with the monitoring, with the testing. they want to give it the result, not current camisoles which is what people in the grammy. the epa says have taken responsibility. no one's been punished or no one's been disciplined at all. they just want to forget about this, whereas you know it's a private company had caused this bill, there would be all kinds of repercussions. the government would be all over that. so the government has this kind of a two-sided approach. what they need to do versus what a private company needs to do. it is a double standard and it's wrong. the epa has gotten too big, too unaccountable and they need to be held accountable. the people in the area are very kind turned right now because there is snow is melting, edition the water is running into the river and its churning out. the poisons that have been deposited down in the river better coming back up. maria: here is michael block, senator. >> what does this mean for the epa? should it be strapped, replaced? how much should a private airplay even though this is not their fault here. >> the epa has gone way beyond its original authority when it came into place in the early 70s in terms of issues at the time. they have become such a purifying agent in some ways in such a contaminating agents and others. they need to be held accountable. we have unaccountable, unelected bureaucrats. and this year and the reason we have to do this subpoena is because they didn't want to show what. that is what today is so offensive. they said will send the written testimony. they were not willing to come and answer questions. we haven't had to issue a subpoena. i will tell you the issue is bipartisan by the members of the indian affairs committee to say someone had to show up and answer questions. we have been issued a subpoena since the days of jack ever bought in the criminal activities going on back then. maria: unbelievable you have a subpoena to show up. meanwhile they are pointing fingers at private companies all the time. the epa getting scrutiny from the republican candidates. gina mccarthy fired back. they will not go down without a fight if the gop wins in november. here is the quote, senator. the epa's rules get scrutinized like no other. they would have to go to the same level of scrutiny by any president should there be a reversing direction. what is your take on this? >> well, the epa has been reinterpreted and applause. from years ago with the epa has done now has nothing to do with current or new legislation. it's a reinterpretation of all flaws and that's what they are using to go after poll, to go after energy, to go after land use, water use. it is a land grab essentially where they are calling all of the waters which primarily come under the control of the federal government if its navigable water. other waters are under the control of the states. they wanted all, which is a huge grant of authority and land controlled by the federal government and specifically this epa. maria: we will be watching this meeting. thanks very much. senator john barrasso, thank you are sharing this with us. coming up

take on what went on yesterday? >> well, it is what it is, it is certainly harassment of our warships in the battle ic sea but this is these friction points others have been occurring sometime it is part of a largely strategy maria that russia has, they really want to break the -- the transatlantic alliance that we have, with nato, european allies they want to weaken it, and this intimidation is designed for a european al lewis as much as it is for us by that i mean, that ship just came out of a polish port conducting a training mission, with polish helicopters and next month is a major training exercise taking place in poland. so this is -- primarily designed for the pols to demonstrate russia is strong powerful can embarrass united states part of overage strategible russians have not only weaken a i liance between united states and it in a oo but at some point actually trying to break that alliance. maria: so is it also russia fleking muscles at u.s. in some case taunting u.s. we know march 14 putin announced withdrawing russian forces from syria a surprise, did not discuss it with president obama. or tell anybody advance feels taunting us since. >> i think your point well taken, for a number of years now, somewhere around four, in my judgment, russia has been very aggressive with the united states they believe that we have with a very passive policy, in responding to them, and responding to their ambitions in eastern european in syria i bless they play psychological warfare with our president they have his number so to speak clearly take advantage of the leadership they believe united states has which is not going to respond, which is weak, and they are going to continue to be a very assertive until the end of this administration in my view. >> extraordinary president obama spoke at icia headquarters yesterday in virginia discussing next steps in the fight against isis the president acknowledged the difficult road general but he said u.s. load coalition has made progress begins a terrorist groups in recent months the sound bite your reaction. >> today on ground in syria and in iraq, isil is on the defensive, our 66 member coalition including arab partners is on the offensive. we have momentum, and we intend to keep that momentum. maria: hard to know, general what are your thoughts on that are they on defensive? some certainly true not the whole story, the kurds have taken back territory in jooir iraq isis took demonstrates isis is not 10 foot tall, iraqis themselves with some assistance from us, has begun to take back, the major territory that they lost to isis a long way to go there, probably until next year, to be able to take back mosul true statement that there has been some progress made in taking back territory. what is not being told is that isis has expanded into nine countries with three more about to be affiliated with them they have a worldwide following, where that -- the terrorist radicalized killing he citizens in tunisia turkey lebanon as we well know paris france, brussels belgium and also san bernardino california those attacks are actually going to continue so isis while defth its territory having lost some territory is able to do what i just described with expansion rad cad clyde ralliedlizing others, they main a safe ohioan three weeks ago military leaders in testimony before senate armed services committee told the senators that we do not have, a plan, to take down the safe havana in syria, actually, the center of gravity raqqa astounding revelation part of the story president is not telling us. maria: i see let me get your take on news last night we learned isis yesterday put out this hit list targeting moderate muslims including hillary clinton aide huma ab din what do you make of this list isis released latest edition of terrorist magazine targeting several prominent muslims keith ellison of minnesota british "politico"s, huma. >> well, isis masters of psychological warfare they constantly pushing thoughts views, et cetera, isis wants to occupy all muslim labbing will kill muslim nonbelievers to do that also are as opposed to any muslims supporting western values western ideas in this case supporting democracy capitalism obviously huma abedin supporting clinton he manifestation supporting all that a veiled threat on surface of it, but, nonetheless, it its followers enjoy it demonstrates reach psychological reach demonstrates also, the strength of their ideology this you they oppose western values what americans, and other people in europe stand for that is what is at the bottom of all of that. maria: more of the same, remember a couple months ago the letter, that was sent to donald trump, with some of the greatest military names, obviously, to talk about his foreign policy, and why he needs to listen to the generals, let me ask you about donald trump's comments on water bordering, what your hearing on the campaign trail general. >> well, i don't comment on any candidates' views on policy or about these, maria because i want to maintain my independence so i -- i am frankly not able to deal with that i'm sorry. >> would there be a situation, where the military would not take orders from a potential president if it was against what they believe? >> the military will follow any lawful order issued by a commander in chief whether they agree with that order or not their place is not to choose, whether they agree with policy or not. their place is to execute it. and certainly they would not follow any unlawful order, i can say that with certainty. >> of course -- general great to have you on program thanks so much for your insight. >> good talking to you -- >> always good to see you general jack keane

colorado donald trump making a stand -- ways to improve for sure, i think you have people both in the establishment, and grass wroots, who think that that is not a very good set up not a good way of selecting, having said that, those rules have been in place since last summer, i mean there was a denver post article on august 25th, of 2015 laying out the changes. ted cruz had people on the ground in colorado for 8 months, donald trump hired first ground person last week. so, trump simple got out organized i think got out man you've eroded. >> what reince priebus is saying. >> art of the deal talks about knowing details knowing the person you are negotiations with how can you not know details staff caught flat flooded the flat-footed embarrassed in north dakota embarrassed in tennessee, he was embarrassed in louisiana incredible trying to blame establishment specific campaign mistakes your reaction to that? >> well, yeah, i think he is you know part of it major theme of his entire candidacy taking on establishment hitting back at establishment doing that from the very beginning, occasionally departs from ma message says he will become establishment if he gets the nomination but look this is something that he knows will get his supporters in particular, fired up, and you know a lot of his supporters at least judging from my intaksz with them have not taken time to go back and look at you know what the colorado rules were back in august. and simple happy to accept trump's assertion that this is all somehow rigged against him. >> can i look at this from a bigger distance than just standing in denver so to speak? like never before, though, with particularly with social media, the internet 24 hours news cycle voters on both sides, democrats and republicans, are seeing rules that are put in place that in some instances if partly he woulders people with most control if they would be the like who is leading in the numbers they can somehow put somebody in they do like.

not just colorado, and rules you the in place in colorado, but in terms of the control that the party elders have over who delegates are aren't american people dismayed with the rules that -- what are rules -- >> if they have been in place. >> right, how people were being elected. >> i think that is a fair point, it is worth but not as if voters are pourls if they want to make changes they can affect changes do their best to affect these changes maria talking to ron paul later one thing his supporters did they went around to state organizations, and did very best, to change the rules, to affect changes they wanting met resistance no question the party establishment both nationally and in several states, took on the ron paul supporters and saw them as a threat to existing order, but not as if voters apowerless. >> colorado in rare view what states are coming that up have idiosyncrasies trump campaign should be aware of proactive about circumvent everybody frankly shooting against

>> earnings setting the tones and jobless claims came in and not surprising. cpi, everyone is talking inflation is finally going to lift. the cpi is a little light. maria: up 1/10. just hit the tapes. >> we've had this incredible run based on oil and then jp morgan came out. how is bank of america going to get higher fees when there was the m and a market. we've had a nice run. maria: you're not going to buy into the banks on the earnings then? >> no, i'm waiting and waiting, if the people want to run them up and drink the kool-aid and say, hey, this means everything better and by the way, these things are cheap. i'm not in a rush here. dagen: i want to point out the m and a business is not going to completely perhaps. it's slowed down, but you're not going to see the mega deals and the government, god forbid intervened in horrific ways, but you'll see transactions. >> the monster fees are gone, but the small and mid cap may have more m and a. maria: we've got to mention the price of oil, all the way up above $40 a barrel. one of the reasons the markets have stabilized. we've got a production freeze summit coming up on the 17th. is that going to-- >> breaking news, we've been talking about this for a while and maybe takes care of the supply side, assuming the saudis, russians and iranians and qataris are going to agree to a freeze. but if there's oil that slips out and did. maria: take a look at the campaign trail, the delegate count on the republican side, donald trump 755 and ted cruz in the 500. the candidate needs to hit, 1237. randy evans thinks that donald trump might be able to wrap up the nomination with that. if donald trump exceeds 1100 votes he will become the nominee even though he won't have 1237. and that trump will be able to pick up enough unbound delegates to push him over the top. joining us is former congressman and candidate himself, ron paul. sir, good to see you. thank you for joining us. >> good morning. maria: we've been debating the rules all morning and every day and you know, the rules are 1237. what do you think? would donald trump get it even if it's falling short under that number? >> well, if that's his net total and he's short, i don't think he will and i don't think he should. but, you know, they're dealing with these rules, but the rules are, in politics are made to be broken just like the rules in government. generally, i think the political system is sort of like the government. they're broken, they're arbitrary and favor one group over another and of course, i went through that four years ago, how at the last minute they can change the rules. so it's a messy business for sure and i think that people are starting to wake up. i think it might be a little bit late to really restore sanity to this country, economically and in other areas. maria: so walk us through what you did go through. it's true, you actually faced very similar situation and we're having this controversy about the delegates, even if you get the popular vote, you're not getting the delegates? >> right, but we were well aware of the rules and we actually thought rules were made to be followed and the system had been made so that a competing candidate that might not have all the money and all the, you know, all the prestige would still have a chance. so they said, well, you know, if you get five states and you have plurality, you get to be recognized and give a speech, something happens at the convention. it gives you a little bit of a chance. maria: yeah. >> and we had a little bit of a chance, nothing like what trump has done. but we qualified to participate in the convention. but they got hysterical because we were dealing with issues and they didn't want to deal with that and they didn't want to touch anything. so they panicked, we can't have ron paul give a speech, have him nominated, that would be horrible. and they changed the rules and they're biting them because they want to do the same thing. the rules aren't necessarily bad, they were set up. the other thing that people don't understand, the way they're set up, some of the states if they choose to make their election a straw vote, that's essentially what was going on. i know that's essentially what was on in iowa and we played-- we actually won iowa. we had, you know, 80% of the delegates because we knew the system, but they just changed the rules at the last minute, but it was a straw vote and a lot of states do, nothing wrong with straw votes. maria: wow. >> so that trump is off base when he says it's rigged. a lot of rigging going on, but i don't think he understands how the rigging works. maria: congressman, we've got frank luntz with us this morning. frank. >> congressman, a pleasure to see you, it's been a while. i've got ask you, who is the freedom candidate in this race? you were the freedom candidate four years ago. who is that person this time? >> rand paul, you know what happened to him. so, i guess i've been really pretty shocked because i've looked at the 20th century as the death of tote ta totalitarianism and people were coming around and saying, i like libertarians, i'm libertarian on this. i'm shocked at this country. this describes to me how sick the country is and how panicked they are where they can rally around-- >> so congressman. >> looks like we need socialism, but reflects what's going on in the universities. >> would you consider it possible voting for the libertarian candidate if donald trump is the nominee? >> certainly, why not? there you go. >> why should i throw my vote away. i think that people's votes should count. and people who say progressive and green party, i'm wasting my vote, not if you're disgusting. hillary is not a progressive. she's a neocon and she could run as republican. if you're a libertarian, vote libertarian and make your vote count. just to vote for the lesser evil. maria: dagen. dagen: congressman, do you think that we're talking about socialism, do you think that it's not just in name? do you really fear that these policies will take root even regardless of who wins come november? >> well, it is a tricky thing about defining socialism. they're going to take root, whether we're going to stop them, whether we're going to stop the expansion of government and control of our markets below, you know, zero interest and all of the nonsense going on. and the teaching over the last 70 years-- seven years, deficits don't matter, print more money. that's the problem and that's going to continue. the names have changed because actually sanders is not a pure socialist. he's an extreme interventionist, keynesian who wants to plan the economy and use his authority to redistribute wealth. that is socialistic, but you know, they still deal with corporations. maria: he's not making any-- he's out and saying he's not making a secret of it. michael block is here. >> congressman, i see the g.o.p. as being very anti-libertarian here as you and frank have pointed out. i see emphasis on anti-immigration, pro-life and anti-gay rights and about the republican party focuses on that, could they be more libertarian, if they say people should do what they want to do and smaller government in these respects. >> a lot of times they paint me as an isolationist which is false. they put on sanctions and telling people what to do, i want free trade, i don't want managed trade and all of the government managed trade like we have now, and trump makes some points on this, but, no, i think the libertarians, at least i had a modified version of it because i think that an active aggression is killing a live fetus. and we have to deal with that. there's a different position for-- libertarians they don't march lock step. as a matter of fact, even the libertarian party, i'm a little bit annoyed because they're getting to be a little more war mongering than i like. i like nonintervention. i like minding our own business and bringing our troops home and they're not there anymore, but that's certainly what our founders advised for, stay out of tangling alliance. maria: frank luntz says we're going to a contested convention, do you agree with that? >> i think the odds are pretty good on that. i wouldn't bet against that because, you know, the republicans have dug a big hole for themselves. if they let trump walk away with it on a first vote, you know, that's-- they can't tolerate that, but of course, they're going to be in a deep trouble if they prevent it and you let cruz or nominate cruz, so they're really in a box and i just wished people would emphasize that the-- a lot of people would like, who are libertarian and conservative, who cares about the republican, helped destroy the republican authority. what about the democratic party? are they much better? i don't deal with that. i don't like to deal with the party thing. i want to deal with the principles of free market and of sound foreign policy and protection of civil liberties. maria: right. >> and when that-- that revolution comes, believe me, it will infiltrate all parties because the revolution of 100 years ago changed everything about the monetary system and welfarism and war and so it's in both parties. so, really, if -- there is no difference between the two parties. i know that's all we hear about is this argument, but that's all just a charade. maria: wow, congressman, good to have you on the program. thank you so much. >> you're welcome. maria: and ron paul. you believe we're going contested?

>> yeah, it's a big part about it and the thing about minerva, any university has things that it needs to work on. the difference is that we set up minerva as an institution that ierates all the time. and we teach them practical knowledge what they can do in the future and despite starting from a higher base, we continue to get feedback from students and improve every day. maria: why is it so hard to get into? >> well, we are an institution that is set up to train, find and then train people who are going to make, what we refer to as decisions of consequence, they have decisions on others much more so than themselves. toe to find people who have the intellectual curiosity and force power, the humility and passion to succeed in those types of environments is extremely hard to find so we reject something like ten valedictorians for every one that we admit and we really have to find people who we believe are going to run the major institutions of the world in the future and give them the kind of training that prepare them to do that. dagen: i will ask questions that more students need to ask and their parents, how much does it cost? >> very good question. so minerva is an extremely intensive environment, less than 20 students in them. attention in your class environment and career support, immersion in the city and students live in seven different cities across the next four years, san francisco and then they live all over the world and tuition at minerva is $10,000, you have to pay for room and board and live and eat so the total price tag is 28,000, but well under half of the traditional ivy league university where the majority of your classes will be lectures. maria: how do you make it affordable? it's a debate across universities, how do you get the price down. >> the question is less about what we strip down, more what other universities bulked up. tuition 1965 and adjusted for 2015, tuition at private evie league would be $10,000 a year and what's happened in the interim is that universities got into this crazy amenities race where everybody has to build a nicer football field and lawn and everything else and so they build the outrageous campuses. maria: you want to take athletics? >> that's right. we're in favor of students exercising and we live in great cities and plenty of parks and you know, public recreation activities, but we don't think that people should pay $10,000 just for athletics every year. maria: and frank luntz is here, a polster, and that's why we've got bernie sanders resonating with free college, frank luntz. >> and that's why i clearly need to exercise if anyone does. [laughter] my one question, how is the teaching different there. how do the professors, i know personal interaction, do you teach differently. maria: real quick. >> we teach different, lectures are banned at minerva, protesters can't talk for more than four minutes at a time. you want to engage students in active learning. students participate in every single class and assessed how well they do in class participation. we don't do tests we look at their project work and class participation. the other way we do it. maria: right. >> simply is we do our courses on a proprietary internet platform that we've built. even though the students live together they don't go to a physical classroom. they actually in a very immersive environment and teaching much richer. maria: good for you for this innovation. when a moment turns romantic why pause to take a pill? or stop to find a bathroom? cialis for daily use is approved to treat both erectile dysfunction and the urinary symptoms of bph, like needing to go frequently, day or night. tell your doctor about all your medical conditions and 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 it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. do not drink alcohol in excess. side effects may include headache, upset stomach, delayed backache or muscle ache. to avoid long-term injury, get medical help right away for an erection lasting more than four hours. if you have any sudden decrease or loss in hearing or vision, or any symptoms of an allergic reaction, stop taking cialis and get medical help right away. ask your doctor about cialis and a $200 savings card. i'm in charge of it all. business expenses, so i've been snapping photos of my receipts and keeping track of them in quickbooks. now i'm on top of my expenses, and my bees. best 68,000 employees ever. that's how we own it. ♪ ♪ for your retirement, you want to celebrate the little things, because they're big to you. and that is why you invest. the best returns aren't just measured in dollars. td ameritrade®. >> my thanks to my panel. dagen always a pleasure, stuart varney take it away. stuart: i shall. good morning everyone. today you're going to see business, that's private enterprise confronted. all across the country. it is the $15 an hour minimum wage movement, you're looking at it right now. this movement has morphed into the democrats presidential campaign. bernie sanders and hillary clinton going all out to criticize and demonize business. the banks, the billionaires, wall street, they're the villains and you will see this play out today. meantime, wall street continues
