Still stands including the bell towers and priceless relics. Bill so many in paris watching from the sidewalks, kneeling in the streets to pray and sing hymns. [people singing] that was late last nightment now for the news today greg palkot is pack along the seine river. Fire officials saying the entire fire is out at this beautiful cathedral of notre dame. Some smoldering remains being put out. After 15 hours of fighting. We were here for a good part of the evening. We saw smoke billowing out and we saw the embers of the glowing fire inside this cathedral. It is now out. Ill ask my cameraman to zoom beyond me. Were only 300 or 400 yards away from the cathedral. What you are seeing is of the n. You arent seeing the roof or whats inside. Timbers and flames falling inside. Thats the focus of attention right now. Much was safe inside of that church. Various important artifacts. Ive just learned the organ has been saved. We learned last night that the crucifix that is venerated by christians and worn by christ has been saved, too. The crown jewel of this church. A miracle it was saved. Bill we lost the audio signal from greg. He was the some of the images that greg was showing us on the back side of the church along the river, the scaffolding itself is enormous. It must have taken months just to erect the scaffolding to do the work on the spire. The spire itself had a bell that weighed several tons. Sandra we living these images yesterday. These are live images now in paris 3 00 in the afternoon there as officials have a chance to finally assess the damage. There is a piece of the scaffolding that you just mentioned, bill. And when the pictures first started coming in in the early afternoon yesterday, that, of course, was the first thing that caught all of our eyes was the scaffolding around the building and the possibility that construction had something to do with it. Bill for so many in france and around the world you have had the opportunity to see this church in person. For all of us it has its own intimate affect the first time you see it. I think sandra, safe to say the first time you see it is a moment in your life that you never forget. Sandra i was 17 years old. Bill i was 20. Youll never forget the moment you lay eyes on the northern facade of that church, the bell towers have survived and as someone said late last night the cathedral itself is the artwork. If you see it in person, you think they had this vision in the 12th century to build a structure that would turn out like this. Sandra theyll assess the damage and begin the examination of what led to this happening. A massive fundraising effort is underway now to rebuild the cathedral. Two french billionaires already donating more than 330 million. And a gofundme is also collecting to help with the reconstruction. That fund has taken in more than 4,000 so far. That is growing and new. But certainly some of the more rich members of society are stepping in and vowing to rebuild. Bill so much has been saved, too. Fortunate to wake up to that news this morning. Well get back in touch with greg and let you know what were learning from france today and notre dame. Raise the issue im a millionaire. This year we had 560,000 income. Thats a lot of money. And that money in my case, my wifes case, it came from a book that i wrote, pretty good book, might want to read it. It was a best seller, sold all over the world and we made money. So if anyone thinks that i should apologize for writing a bestselling book im sorry, im not going to do it. Sandra there he was, Bernie Sanders at last nights fox news town hall. He released 10 years worth of tax returns minutes before the event. Peter doocy is live in bethlehem, pennsylvania. Did senator sanders ever volunteer to pay more taxes last night . Yes, but only if he is the president. Senator sanders explained voted against the trump tax reform bill but he is not going to do anything else to try to work around this legislation that has benefited him since royalties started to pile up from miss book. Your marginal tax rate was 26 because of President Trumps tax cuts. How about saying im leading the revolution and im not going to take this . I am i paid the taxes that i owe. And by the way, why dont you get donald trump up here and ask him how much he pays in taxes. The centerpiece of the sanders platform is medicare for all. At one point bret baier asked the crowd of 500 to raise their hand if they were willing to ditch the private insurance they have for medicare and many hands shot up. Sanders then explained that insurance might not cost anything to patients but that doesnt mean its free healthcare. Youre not going to pay any Health Insurance premiums. [cheering and applause] but look healthcare is not free. Of course not. You said it would be free for everyone. It will be free at the point when you use it. So sanders clarified that medicare for all does not mean governmentrun healthcare like the v. A. , just governmentrun insurance, sandra. Sandra did Bernie Sanders align with the president on any issues last night, peter . Yes, just one issue and that is keeping the u. S. Out of conflicts overseas where they dont need to be. The democratic socialist senator urged President Trump to sign a bill passed by the house and Senate Getting the u. S. Out of the saudibacked part of the yemeni civil war. Ive been critical of the president on that. Let me just say this. The president doesnt want to see this country involved in endless wars and i agree with that. Other than that, sanders was very harsh on trump. As harsh as any democrat running called him a pathological liar at one point. Bill bring in byron york. A pretty rocking hour. What do you think on the whole how did it go . A net plus for Bernie Sanders since his party has just rejected taking part in any debate, moderated by fox news. Now you saw Bernie Sanders being questioned by anchors of fox news, bret and martha, and by voters in bethlehem, pennsylvania. And it went pretty well. There is no doubt that he got more challenging questions, i think, than he would have gotten in some other context. But sanders defended all of his positions. He was asked about his taxes, about his age, about his Healthcare Plan, and you have to think that this was a net plus for him and maybe other democrats would say not so bad. Bill you find some contradictions in what he said. He paid 26 taxes but with bret and martha he said everyone should pay 52 . It put him in the middle of the Democratic Party. Bret and martha were asking about proposals among democrats that the top federal income tax rate individual rate be 70, 80, 90 . He said no, it wasnt that high. In my last campaign i called for 52 . The bigger question, why dont you just pay that. You can. Clearly doesnt want to do that. Kind of like in Campaign Finance reform when people say they want to take the money out of politics but as long as its legal theyll take those contributions. Bill i dont know what joe biden does. Is Bernie Sanders the nominee . No, at this point remember in 2012 when there were tons of republicans that romney got the nomination. It was rick perry, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and everybody got to lead for a week or two. A lot of people will go up and down in the democratic race. Bill bernie has big crowds and big money. Nancy pelosi is overseas. She was in london and was asked about aoc yet again. Here is the response on that. When we won this election it wasnt in districts like minor alexandrias. She is a wonderful member of congress. I think all of our colleagues are. But those are districts that are solidly democratic. Bill to be fair to her she said that would be true for her district as well. But you are thinking this gets worse before it gets better, byron. Do we need any more proof that nancy pelosi really does not like alexandria ocasiocortez who is getting all this attention and sucking up a lot of the oxygen around the Democratic Party in the house, and by the way, with ocasiocortez and her rather small group of copatriots, tlaib and omar. Theyre vowing not to back down to the Authority Figures both in their party and in congress as a whole. I think you have to say this probably will get worse before it gets better. Bill thank you, sir, byron york from washington, d. C. Nice to have you. 11 minutes past the hour. Sandra fox news alert. President trump calling out democrats in the battle over border security. President trump it would be a lot easier if congress would get together and the democrats would agree to get rid of the loopholes, the horrible and foolish loopholes. Sandra the president not backing off a proposal to send detained migrants to sanctuary cities. Several House Democrats are calling for investigations into that plan. Republican house judiciary member andy biggs will weigh in on that. The chinese woman accused of bluffing her way into maralago is back before a judge. Well tell you what happened in court in her case. Sandra two days to go before attorney general william barr will officially release a retacted version of the Mueller Report. Thursday morning. The white house warning democrats they will be highly disappointed with that. Andy mccarthy will join us next. I dont think it will be damaging to the president because the entire purpose of the investigation was whether or not there was collusion. Mueller was Crystal Clear in the fact there was no collusion. We consider this to be case closed. Will it feel like the wheend of a journey . P working, or the beginning of something even better .

Maximally designed to hinder the ability of anybody else other than him to communicate. Bill jerry nadler criticizing the timing of the release. They will deliver a redacted version to congress and the public on thursday. Andy mccarthy, Fox News Contributor, good morning to you. I thought ken starrs comment with shannon was appropriate. Were about to enter a period of tremendous frustration and acrimony. How about the comment from jerry nadler. Would any time be sufficient . This will be attorney general barr released it on high noon Christmas Morning with washington december desolate this would be a big story. They do it to fill the air until thursday comes around and we get to see what the report was. It will be a big story whenever its released. Bill what has barrs team been doing for the past 10 days . Do you have any insight . I think what theyre doing because the report is lengthy, close to 400 pages, and they have to go through it line by line and evaluate it in terms of grand jury material, classified information, and Justice Department policies about what information you could put out, particularly about peripheral players, they really are going through this word by word because the attorney general knows even though all these demands are being made for disclosure, if he has one thing in there that shouldnt be in there he will be criticized for that. Bill lets go back to ken starr. Play sound bite two. He was with shannon last night on fox news at night. This is how he lays out his argument against obstruction. I cant even understand the obstruction argument. There was no firing of bob mueller, there was no sealing off of his offices. As i see it given what we know, there was the antithesis, it was complete cooperation. Lots of nasty language but cooperation. Bill the other thing he said there thousands of documents released. He talked about the counsel to the president testifying for 30 hours. His words, this is unheard of. Yeah. Let me add one other thing. I think everything the judge said is spot on. I have a more fundamental question, bill. That is, i dont understand how a Counter Intelligence investigation can be obstructed by the president. A criminal investigation is done so that you can vin diindicate the rule of law in court and why we call it obstruction of justice because it involves judicial proceeding. Counter intelligence proceedings are done for the president. The only reason theyre done is to support the president s mission, his constitutional mission, to protect the United States from foreign threats. So i have yet to hear anyone explain to me how a Counter Intelligence investigation thats done for the president who is the one in government who decides what intelligence needs of the government are, how that kind of investigation can be obstructed. I dont get it. Bill bill barr said he is assembling a team to look at what the f. B. I. Did in the summer of 2016. When do we learn more about that, andy . I would imagine well learn about it imminently. It would be surprising to me if we didnt learn it roughly simultaneously with when the report goes out. The other thing, bill, of importance that the attorney general said along those lines is that the Inspector Generals report, the Inspector General has been looking into some of this, it will be out as early as potentially may but certainly by june. Bill andy, thank you so much. I hope you are around toward the end of the week. Hope youre around on thursday and hope you are a fast reader because youll rely on people like you to take us through it and help us understand. Andy mccarthy, thank you today. Whats next .

Of course here was no human loss, so you cant compare things but it has the same feeling of something not real. Now its burned and sandra an eyewitness expressing the terrible shock seeing a fire ravage Notre Dame Cathedral in paris. My works of art and religious artifacts were saved including a relic of the crown of thorns jesus wore when he was crucified. Many priceless stained glass windows are still intact. The devastation one of the worlds most recognized religious symbols comes as paris and the world observe holy week. Father Gerald Murray is a priest for the church of the holy family. Father, appreciate you coming in this morning. Where were you yesterday when you started to learn the news . I was at my Church Office doing clerical work going through the computer emails and suddenly my phone was on notice that the church is on fire. So i immediately tuned in and unbelievable watching that burn. Ive been to Notre Dame Cathedral when i was a High School Student studying french and that memory immediately came back to me. Magnificent cathedral suddenly up in flames. Sandra reliving these images now, they started to come in. It was almost hard to believe that notre dame could be burning. Speak to the symbolism of this cathedral. The cathedral really symbolizes the body of christ. We say that the church is the mystical body and all believers join together. The church is actually in the form of a cross and you can see that when they had overhead shots taken from helicopters. The church is also called the house of god. So really, its the place where you encounter god on earth and as this church burned, you know, i was reminded that what really counts is not the building but the people. And thank god no one was killed. Were all attached to these beautiful buildings and im glad theyll rebuild. The most important thing, thats what holy week symbolizes, is individual believers united m faith and prayer. Sandra you did see those moments during and following believers getting together singing ava maria while the flames were going up
