brian: senator shelby and the others 17 other bicameral. bipartisan coming up with a border agreement. we thought we were focusing on the wall. instead we are focusing on beds as well. steve: that's what we said on friday beds and border security structure. they didn't even get to that what it all comes down to now is the democrats are trying to limit the number of detention beds. in other words, now, think about it if you arrest somebody, if you are ice, and you arrest somebody, if you are going to arrest somebody, you have got to have a bed for them. so really, the administration is steamed at the democrats because they are telling the administration how many people they can arrest, ice, in a year. and they want to cap it at 16,500. ainsley: what's interesting is if you look at prisons across our country, people are saying we don't have enough bed. have to let people out that have the shorter offenses. here on the border we have enough beds. republicans want to pour the money out so the criminals don't come in our country. they have the beds. democrats are saying we don't care if you have too many beds. we want to limit the amount. brian: we thought we were foe kissing on they are at 1.3. this house was. the senate had 1.6 billion for the barrier. trying to see if a number between the 5.7 the president wants and the 1.3 is what nancy pelosi said. they are greg close to 2 billion and then they spring this push on ice. remember, they said they wanted to abolish ice? and they got so much backlash did the democrats and they pulled back from that? they are slowly trying to abolish ice. and they are trying to do that by diminishing their impactfulness and allowing people they would normally detain to stay in the general population. roughly 40,000 beds. they want to cut it back as many as 35,000, maybe less. steve: they are trying to cap it at 16,500. the president, i am told, will not agree to limit the number of criminals that ice is allowed to arrest. if there is a shutdown, and it is a real possibility on this monday morning, there will be a shutdown because the administration will not allow the democrats to put a number on the number of people ice can arrest in any calendar year. it's not about beds. it's the number of people who can be detained. that's what it all comes down to. ainsley: it could be a shutdown on friday. steve: absolutely. ainsley: folks negotiating say it has completely broken down. border committee democrats are behaving all of a sudden irrationally. not only are they not only unwilling to give dollars for the obviouslily needed wall. they overrode the recommendations of the border patrol experts. but they don't even want to take murderers into the custody. what's going on? brian: a march showing duly very popular people in texas. the president and broker. ainsley: they are upset with him saying at the state of the union the wall works in el paso. brian: which it did. steve: we had the acting chief of staff mick mulvaney sir late yesterdasigh r. circule government still might shut down. nonetheless, he is emphatic. that wall is going to get built. >> our attitude at this point is we will take as much money as can you give us and we will go off and find the money some place else legally in order to secure that southern barrier. this is going to get built with or without congress. >> is the national emergency, declaring an national emergency still on the table. >> absolutely still on the table. this is not the precedent. this is the law. certain things every president must do in order to trigger the rights that he has to sort of move money around. brian: he might be able to get some other money from something else to get it there. ainsley: instead of pulling the emergency switch. the president said this is what the democrats want. they have want to take the focus and distract what's happening in virginia. they would love another shutdown so it makes him look bad and he is saying that many people in the democratic party really want to knowing united states and they want something done but he feels like the leaders in the democratic party are stopping it. brian: something happened. senator mike lee came out over the weekend and said i talked to the president and he essentially said i take 2 billion. you get me 2 billion. i'm all right. keep in mind. between all the regulations and all the forms and getting everybody up to speed, they are just starting on the 2017 money now. so they get about 50 miles out of that you get 2 billion. there is seven months left in the fiscal year then you get another 2 billion. next thing you know you are getting close to halfway done knowing there is only a finite amount of people to build the barrier. steve: 2 billion figure is one that's floating around. i heard they are not even close to 3 billion. apparently the talks have broken down. there is no suggestion when they are going to start again. as to an agreement regarding the amount of money that would build a fence or a wall or barrier they didn't even take that up. this number of ice detention beds is a nonstarter. ainsley: seems like a tactic doesn't it. brian: i can't believe the democrats would give up their ability to govern to nancy pelosi. i mean, clearly she is pulling the strings. she is making senator schumer look like a shoulder for her. all these other people in negotiations and tim ryan was actually talking, twhi maria over the weekend. he had no idea that there was even an issue with bids at the border. where did this come from? where did that come from. ainsley: a lot of republicans felt that over the weekend. another stall tactic. something else to bring up. california very progressive state as you know. gavin newsom is the new governor there climate change, income inequality. you knower with stands. he accident like all the troops on the border. he is saying that he possibly might pull 400 troops that rah signed to duties there on the southern border of california. steve: well, is he expected to do it. keep in mind it was last year that jerry brown the previous governor, went along with the administration, the trump administration, and installed 400 to our southern border. now newsome is going to pull them and assign them to other things, unclear if the federal financing for the troops will continue if they are redirected. but, right now they are currently being paid by the federal government. it looks like about 100 are going to go help fire suppression efforts, another couple hundred would go towards antidrug enforcement. brian: that's what you vote for, california. new mexico always feels very similar to the president's push for borders. so we wil -- border security. people get a vote? i wonder if the people in san diego border communities. steve: it's a sanctuary state. they get to vote on it every time they go to the ballot. brian: residents of san diego i imagine don't feel too amenable to the lack of security. steve: something in southern california as well is los angeles at the staples center last night they had the big grammy awards. and there was a surprise towards the beginning of the show. yes, indeed, that is former first lady michelle obama. she appeared during the opening with issue wil alicia ka jada. talking about the effect music had on their lives. ♪ ♪ >> from the motown records i wore out on the south side to the who run the world songs that fueled me through this last decade. music has always helped me tell my story. music shows us that all of it matters, every story within every voice, every note within every song. is that right, ladies?

how many? how many days do you have to be alive now before you are safe from these people on the left who have moved the window into now a conversation about what northam spoke about which is unquestionable infanticide. steve: it used to be the conversation was at what point does life begin? how do you define a life? what is he explaining is the baby is born and then after the baby is born, then you figure out what to do. >> steve, the conversation once was about safe, legal and rare referencing abortion. because i think democrats understood being proabortion was never going to fly in mainstream america. that's now completely gone. we have a law up in new york that i saw a poll. even 44% of pro-choice individuals don't like the new late-term abortion law up in new york. this is not in any way a mainstream position. brian: right. just real quick. on these what adam schiff said yesterday. we don't have much time. he said yesterday is he going back into president trump's business career to look for anything that might affect any decisions he would makes a president. since when?

tell us what happened to your daughter, amanda? >> yes. my daughter is sixth grade teacher here in el paso. she was struck and killed by illegal alien. this man came to america in 2012. he was kept here by the border patrol and deported. he again beard the country illegally which makes a felony. in 2018 he was arrested for aggravated assault and put in jail. they released him on bond without notifying ice. thus, he went and had a drinking spree. he ran two red lights and killed my daughter as she was crossing the street in a crosswalk. brian: he kept driving, didn't he? >> he kept driving. he dumped the vehicle. he threw the beer out the window. he lied to the police saying that the vehicle was stolen, and that he tried to get his father to tell the police that the vehicle was stolen. they later convinced him and he told the truth that he was driving the vehicle after he had five or six beers. ainsley: dan, you have a lot of democrats mad at the president because they said at the state of the union that he wasn't truthful what was going on down there in el paso. he said the wall has made el paso safer. i know you have been a 45-year resident of that area. what are your thoughts about that. >> i have lived here for about 45, 50 years. and the wall is a great deterrent to illegal immigration. before the wall there was a guy named sylvester ray yes, sir. he placed border patrol agents every 100 yards. before hold the line, el paso was a dangerous place because i was raised here. we had about 50 cars stolen every week. close to 500 a month taken down into what is to chop shops. mr. were gangs in the school and drugs flowing across. i remember doing my student teaching on the playground as a p.e. coach. i saw two agents chase down three illegal immigrants on the play ground and tackle them. this is back before hold the line and back before the wall. steve: got to be so frustrating for you, heart breaking for you because this man was in the country illegally. but, at the same time, he was arrested after he was deported and had he been turned over to ice. this may never have happened to your family. what are you going to tell the president tonight because is he going to pull you aside. you are going to have a conversation. >> i hope. so i would like to do a shoutout to president trump i'm 100 percent behind him on his deal on the wall in securing the border. he also needs to look at cutting off all the money for sanctuary cities. because all that does is let these illegal aliens back into our society to commit more crimes. and i know president trump has looked into the eyes of angel dads and angel moms like me. he knows the pain. he knows the hurt that we have been gone through. he knows the suffering that is being caused to the american citizens. my question for the house and congress is, you know, my daughter was hit and she was so badly hurt that they wouldn't even let my wife and i identify the body. her legs were broken in 8 different places. she had five skull fractures. she had 10 broken ribs and a picturepuck punctured lung. she died at the scene. that's something i have to live with and my family has to live with every day. if ms. pelosi and mr. schumer's daughter or son were hit and killed by illegal alien. i guarantee you fund would go have been there months ago for this wall and security for our border. brian: beto o'rourke doesn't see it that way. he is having a rival rally and a march. >> yeah. beto, you know, it's funny because he is representative of the el paso area. he has yet talked or

we can work it out 2 billion to 5.7 billion finding something there. this is not trying to work it out. steve: this has been going on the entire process because the more money the republicans wanted the less number of ice beds the democrats wanted. when you hear they are trying to put a cap on the number of ice beds. keep in mind, if ice detains somebody. you know, for a variety of charges. they need to have a bed. the president, through his people at the white house say he will not agree to limit the number of criminals that size allowed to arrest. because if they put a number on the number of ice beds, number of people who can be detained essentially you are telling the federal government how many people they can arrest. and the administration said that's a no-brainer. that is a nonstarter. ainsley: democrats are saying release them into america. just put one of those ankle bracelets around them and then we can track them. brian: aoc, this is what lindsey graham says the aoc is taking over the left wing. donald trump is not going to give in sign any bill for less beds available to hold violent offenders who may come across our border. can he not do that he will not do that. >> ainsley: ankle bracelet is not going to stop people from being violent. amanda ferguson was killed. she was a school teacher in his 20's. married. was as the glue that helped heir family stay

the eyes of angel dads and moms like me. he knows the pain and hurt that we have gone through. he knows the suffering that is being caused to the american citizens my question for the house and congress is my daughter was hit and she was so badly hurt that they wouldn't even let my wife and i identify the body. she died at the scene. you know, that is something that i have to live with and my family has to live with every day. you know, if ms. pelosi and mr. schumer's daughter or son were hit and killed by illegal alien, i can guarantee you it would have been there months as for this wall and security for our border. steve: his daughter died simply walking across a street in a crosswalk. she was hit by a man who had been deported from this country, came back illegally and then was arrested while it sounds like ice detainer on him the local jurisdiction did not november ice. so he was out and about and apparently had been drinking. and that is when. ainsley: her wedding picture.

if they don't come to an agreement. does ice get starvesd any way because no new money comes in. >> there -- they are so far to the left. they ought to just go home at this point. there is going to be no agreement. i think the president, i think he will either shut it down. is he going to declare an emergency because he knows what's going on. i have spoken to him. this is a nonstarter. i mean, i don't think if one republican on this committee agrees to this they ought to be fired. in 34 years i have done this job this is the worse by far that the democrats ever put on the table to stop enforce immigration law. one of the democrats last night said ice has to stop arresting law abiding immigrants and concentrate on criminals. first of all ice don't arrest law abiding immigrants. we arrest people here illegally. look at what ice did. they arrest our criminals. you can't incarcerate jails. sanctuary cities. it's ridiculous what's going on. steve: unclear when the talks are going to resume. apparently they haven't even figured out what the number for the wall would be. so stay tuned with that meanwhile, tom, the guy who runs the gallup poll jim clifton has a quote out there that got us to scratching our heads. says 42 million asylum are watching to determine when and how is the best time to make the move. this suggests that open borders could potentially attract 42 million latin americans. 5 million planning to move in the next 12 months say they are moving to the united states. that's a wake-up call. >> why wouldn't they? if there is no consequence or deterrence, criminal organization cartels are getting fat with money. the democrats are helping them. they don't need a p.r. campaign. they have the democrats doing it for them. when you can't detain somebody and you can't, you know, hold somebody to see a judge why not? i mean, there is no consequence. that's why this president is trying to end it. he is trying to control the border. brian: getting push back everywhere whether trying to end sanctuary cities or build a border. incredible. politico had this story. the border patrol is in a recruiting crisis right now. is it a worry of yours that will be an ice crisis soon, too. >> ice has never had much recruiting because i hire a lot of border patrol agents. i think the border patrol, the problem is, these men and women put their lives on the line every day. they see half a congress that don't support them, you know, when you hear the talk that democrats are doing right now, it's hard to go to work every day and put your life on the line knowing that the democrats don't think illegal immigration is a problem. they said yesterday that concentrate on criminals those entering the country i will lylely ice shouldn't look for them. got to be frustrating for the men and women. they put their lives on the line every day. it's got to be a morale buster after a while. ainsley: is it frustrating for you though to know the republicans had a chance they were leaders of the house and the senate and republican president why didn't anything get done then? >> well, first of all they never had the 60 votes. they are not going to get -- so far to the left. but it's frustrating to me as i sit there. my last nine years in the agency, i dealt with congressional appropriate yarts, i know the games they play. so, obviously when they put this on narp week they forgot about me. i'm not going to shut up. when i look at what they put on paper even ice says oh my god i have never seen this so far to the left. they are pulling the curtain back and i think it's going to hurt them in the long run. america is not going to put up with this. steve: the president has made it very clear with his twitter machine, he has been telling everybody what they're up. to say let's see what happens regarding some sort of an agreement. >> we got the best president. we have the right president at the right time. he has done more in two years than most presidents has done in 8. i got full faith in him. is he not going to give into this. he won't give into this. brian: he does not have a choice right now. play with the money on the border barrier but i can't see him going with this. >> he has veto power. brian: you got it tom homan, thank you. >> thank you. ainsley: jillian has headlines for us. jillian: good morning. we are following a story today a judge going to decide if a woman convicted of encouraging her boyfriend to commit suicide can delay her prison sentence. michelle carter's lawyers want to push back her 15-month prison sentence as they appeal the case to the u.s. supreme court. carter was found guilty in 2017 of texting conrad roy convincing him to commit suicide. a school superintendent under fire after asking for prayers. the indiana school leader sent letters to local pastors asking to keep the school in their prayers. he wrote, quote: specifically pray that god will bless me with wisdom to make decisions that are in the best interest of our students. some school board members say it was inappropriate. a kentucky sheriff sounds the alarm suspending all activity over alaska funding. sheriff postings on facebook lock your doors, load your guns and get you a barking, biting dog. if the sheriff's office can't protect you. who will?

>> yeah. so i went to the public health department at n. my local town and i spoke to some of the people there. and they were very kind and they gave me information. i spoke to a family physician and from then on i went and made an appointment and a few months later i had about five vaccines i have more coming this month. ainsley: what did your mom say? did you try to convince her. you told our producers there was misinformation out there and that's what made you want to become vaccinated. what did your mom say? >> yeah. we had spoken a couple times in the past. and she would speak very vocally again about how vaccines cause autism and they cause brain damage and that misinformation isn't out of malice. people that have that opinion don't mean to spread that misinformation to hinder people's health it's to protect people. we had conversations about that. and i tried to give her as much evidence as i had. and had hasn't gotten across yet but i'm hoping eventually it does. steve: the worry, ethan, is you have three younger siblings. >> i do. steve: your 16-year-old sibling wants to be like you and wants to get the shots. but, your mother is not allowing that at this point, right? >> that is correct. >> so what's going to happen? >> well, as of right now, because legally he needs the consent of my mother to receive those vaccinations is he planning to pursue that once he turns 18 like i did. ainsley: how are things. you know your momma loves you and like you said it's not out of malice. how are things with your mom now. >> they are actually great. we have had multiple discussions as this news cycle has progressed and we have spoken about my views and her views and how i still love her despite disagreeing with her even publicly. this issue is more important than accidentally hurting someone's feelings for just disagreeing with them. you know, and reaffirming that encouragement i love her has allowed me to do that and pursue this story publicly and continue expressing that because of that we are still close. and, yeah. so it's good. ainsley: what are your plans? are you going to college? you are 18. >> yeah, i'm hoping to pursue a career in ministry. i'm hoping to become a pastor in some role possibly working in youth ministry. steve: additionally though. you are speaking out today and have you spoken to your local paper and whatnot because you want to get the word out that there is a lot of misinformation regarding vaccines that is circulating on the internet. >> that's true. ainsley: you sound like a great kid i know your mom is so proud of you. god bless you. wish you the best with your pastoral studies. >> thank you very much. steve ethan. ainsley: i love him so cute. steve: that's tough. ainsley: i'm glad he and his mom had the conversation they understand each other's points of view. steve: i don't think she agrees with it but he is old enough. ainsley: still love each other and hasn't caused a wedge. moving on, counselor to the president kellyanne conway here live at the top of the hour. steve: plus, villa back with an encore. trump supporter showing off her build the wall dress on the hot carpet. carley shimkus here she comes. she is next. ainsley: first, red hot chili peppers and dark malone with necessities. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ s not a bed. it's a revolution in sleep. the sleep number 360 smart bed is on sale now, from $899, during the ultimate sleep number event. it senses your movement, and automatically adjusts to keep you both comfortable. it even helps with this. so you wake up ready to hit the ground running. only at a sleep number store. save 50% on the sleep number 360 limited edition smart bed. plus, 24-month financing on all smart beds. only for a limited time. sleep number. proven, quality sleep. wirethat's not right.nth?

>> that is choose. randomly choosing who should be caught and released into the interior of the u.s. who should remain there while their claims of asylum are being processed. mexico has also offered a safe third option where you can remain in mexico, have a work visa, have humanitarian needs, met while your claims of asylum are being processed on this side of the border. to defund i.c.e., abolishing i.c.e. as many prominent and big-mouth democrats are asking for these days would be devastating to the effort to keep us all safe. i'm glad you mentioned that. the president is not part of these negotiations. he is waiting for a bill to come to his desk he can sign into law. you have the conferees, bipartisan conferees arguing about beds and barriers. people should know, especially the people who went to the border complained there were not enough beds, we want more beds, they want fewer. they want people to come illegally into the united states of america. the democrats have had a horrible six weeks in 2019. they're the ones at the table that can't get this done. they're the ones hurdling us towards a shutdown. the top democrat in virginia accused racist. the second democrat, the lieutenant governor, is an accused rapist, difference of a letter, and you got this congresswoman from minnesota again anti-semitic sewage spilling from her mouth overnight. brian: omar. >> 70% taxes, socialized medicine of the they want to do away with cows, and do away with gas and cow gas and air travel. they are sitting on their hands while the president is speaking aagainst abortion in the 8th, 9th month. trying to stop human trafficking, sex trafficking. this has been a terrible six weeks. we need a fully functioning washington where both parties are focused on 2019 and not 2020. melissa: president says that is why the democrats he thinks they want to shutdown the government to change narrative away from virginia, tax 70 to 90%. >> they would certainly own it, ainsley. everybody knows they are at the table. america already thinks congress doesn't do its job very effectively. look at their overall approval ratings this won't help them. i hope they will come to an agreement. the president called for bipartisanship, coming together on any number of issues. last tuesday, the state of the union, the first test is the conferees to put on his desk, border security bill, immigration bill, that has in it a physical barrier as the centerpiece but includes all the other issues, about he had abouts, i.c.e. funding, humanitarian needs, new technology, more immigration judges, more border patrol agents, the full package. let's see it. brian: kellyanne, beto o'rourke will have a march, rival rally to the president. is the president concerned about the size of his crowds? >> no. he is not concerned about that. what i would say to them is, thanks for showing up and if you really want to be on record, especially that guy apparently wants to reward his loss after senate seat, his loss of ted cruz senate, running for president, bring it to the whole country, being a loser, he wants to remind everybody he is against securing the border, a man who represented el paso, have at it. every 2020 democratic aspirer, do you agree with that? do you agree we don't need a physical barrier for the southern border? do you agree with abortion anytime, anywhere? do you agree with 70% taxes? do you agree with representative omar of minnesota when she is being anti-semitic in their seats. they should be asked 24/7. should ralph northam stay. justin fairfax should stay? all these questions should be asked. beto o'rourke, will get a lot of free airtime for the would-be 20 to race. people should she that what it is. president is going down to el paso, giving an interview to your colleague laura ingraham at fox news, he wants to take the case to an area effected postively, his view of legal, safe immigration and a physical barrier wall would come to fruition. steve: you mentioned beto o'rourke may be running for president. we know amy klobuchar declared over the weekend as did elizabeth warren. you've got kamala harris. cory booker. you've former congressman john delaney. tulsi gabbard, andrew yang, humannian castro. that list is only eight so far, it could actually be four times that before it is all done. >> great, keep it coming. just remember, anything times zero still equals zero. if you don't have good ideas that matter to the country, if you can't connect with people, now president trump did all through 2015 and 16, if people don't feel like you are giving them voice and visibility here in washington, d.c., where it will be very difficult for number of them to run as outsider to president trump. he is still seen as the outsider and disruptor. somebody trying to make washington work and trying to make washington work in more better and effective way. this country is where 157 million americans are working now under president trump's leadership, the highest number ever. 58% of new jobs are filled by women. brian: right. >> this president is doing what he can to combat the opioid crisis, to get criminal justice reform in a way people pay their debt to society. he, i think unified the nation last week just by having our d-day veterans and survivor of both the holocaust, god bless them, and also the tree of life massacre in pittsburgh, he brought grace fair, cancer survivor sitting in the box. why? so that americans can feel good. brian: gotcha. >> so they can feel good about the greatness in america. they have nothing. they're so obsessed -- play the tape. brian: comments specifically. we begin with amy klobuchar, his beth warren, then cory booker. >> every worker, farmer, dreamer, and builder, i am running for every american. >> it won't be enough to undo the terrible acts of this administration. our fight is for big, structural change.

>> i was 14 when i found out my story. i'm adopted. have been blessed with an amazing family. knew i had been born prematurely. here i was born 14 years old, to have my own adoptive mother, tell me, you survived an abortion. it was absolutely devastating. ainsley: you found your mom later? >>s it has been a lifelong journey. >> i didn't find her until i was almost 30. ainsley: she didn't know you survived. >> she didn't. ainsley: how is that possible? >> she was told that day, it's a monster, don't look at it. don't look at it. she didn't know if it was a little boy or girl in the final step of saline abortion. i have been blessed to be united with her. we first started communicating six years ago. she is one of the greatest supports alongside my family. ainsley: wow that is incredible. josiah, tell us your story. >> i was adopted from south korea into a family of 12 kids. when i was 13, my adoptive parents told me how my birth mother had a a curetage abortion. that is the type of abortion where the doctor goes into the mother's womb and ripping the baby apart and brings them out in pieces. that is why i'm probably missing an arm today. she had procedure at two months. realized that i was still alive the abortion failed. at that point i was born later on october 7th, 1995. placed with an adoption agency and lived in adoption home a year before i came over to the states to live with the family i grew up. ainsley: your mother had an abortion. you survived. how is that possible. >> my birth mother was 13 years old she found out she was pregnant with my. she was in 8th grade. her mother said she was not ready to be a mother. she took her to a local abortion clinic. she had a dnc surgical late-term abortion five months along in her pregnancy. they told her, her life would go back to normal. few weeks went by, things were not back to normal. they told her her abortion had been successful, but she was still pregnant, one of twins, that she didn't know she was pregnant with had survived. she actually sought out a second late-term abortion in kansas. because of the risk of infection. they were not able to do that. so i was born six weeks later. ainsley: you also have met your biological mother? >> i did. i actually didn't find this out until i met my biological mother. i had a lot of physical complications growing up. i was in body casts for two years because i had dislocated hips and clubbed feet mr. the abortion procedure. we didn't know why. until i met my birth mother and found out about her abortion. ainsley: i want to play a sound bite. you probably all heard it, the governor of virginia. listen to this. >> if a mother is in labor i can tell you exactly what would happen. the infant would be delivered. the infant would be kept comfortable. the infant would be re sus stated if that is what the mother and the families desired. then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mothers. ainsley: josiah in your mother lived in virginia and you were born, she didn't want you, she tried to have an abortion she could still decide to take your life after birth. how do you feel about that? >> it is really sad to hear that. but it is not surprising to hear that when we live in a country that has arbitrary criteria for what defines personhood. so abortion is legal in the first trimester, the second trimester. the next step is not the third trimester. right not right after they're born? this brings to mind, this reminds us the reality that people are people at conception. we should care about their personhood then, at conception. not past they're born because this is what we're left with when we have those kind of arbitrary criteria for personhood. ainsley: i look at all of you, thanking god he spared your lives. when you watch the women cheer behind andrew cuomo in new york, when he signs the legislation, that you can have an abortion up until the very last second, you see the world trade center lit up in pink, what is your reaction? >> it is shocking to me that people no longer in our country care about what is true and, right. we know that a baby is what is in the inside of a mother's womb based on medical technology and science. so we just hope that, you know, because people can see our faces and see that we are people, we are human, we do grow up to be someone some day, that people will realize that those women do not speak for women like me. so i would ask those people where were my rights as a woman? what were my rights in the womb. ainsley: melissa, you were not supposed to live. here you are living. you're a public speaker. you go out and you give life and redemption to a lot of women all over the country. what's your message to people who are having to make a decision? what is your message to those governors that signed this legislation? >> those governors i would say echoing claire's sentiments. this is a human rights issue and in a world that decry as women's rights where were claire's rights, where were mine? where are the rights of little girls of their lives ended by abortion today? without the right to life there is no other right that comes? for someone who is facing that decision about an abortion, i want people to know they're not alone. so many women are coerced, forced, don't know what resources exist for them in their communities. they are completely unsupported. so i want women to know there are resources available in every community. they can always contact any of us. you're never alone. ainsley: i love to honor those parents that adopted all three of you and all of my friends, you know, anyone who adopted a child, i have a friend who adopted a little girl. i hate it people say i'm adoptive parent. i want to be a parent. she has a biological parent but i am the mom. tell us your story about your parent, making the same mistake. josiah, tell but the family that brought you into their home? >> i'm actually the son of a pastor of worship at a southern baptist church in oklahoma. my parents, they have 12 kids but they adopted 10 ever us. what caused them to adopt us is the gospel. the fact that they have been changed by god to love others. his work in their life then causes them to love those around them. gives them pro-life conviction to take in the children, make them their own. just as god made them his children, they make them their children. ainsley: claire, how about yours? >> i was adopted by a couple that weren't able to have children naturally. and so i also have a sister who is adopted. they just side that, when they went to the doctors, there was 1% chance of them having children naturally. so they knew the other way, to have children was through adoption. god created our family. i owe my parents so much credit for the way i was able to respond to my birth mother when she told me because they raised me on love and grace and forgiveness. so all three of us have forgiven our birth mothers because we know that they had no idea what they were getting into when they had an abortion. and so, there is so much hope and healing after abortion. >> it is not about condemnation. we hear your stories. just amazing how god has huge plans for all of y'all when you weren't even supposed to be here. it is incredible. we'll end this with your story about your parents. >> my mom and dad were a lot like claire's. they struggled with infertility for 15 years. they were foster parents. they adopted my older sister from another family and adopted me. no matter what they told me my life would be like, i faced multiple disabilities. ainsley: look at you. >> that is the power of love, right. this is what love does, it saves lives. brings us to life. after 15 years of infertility my parents had a biological child of their own. ainsley: wow. i hear that a lot. our assistant here, her parent were told they couldn't have kids. they went down to south carolina to adopt kids, she found out on that trip she was pregnant with twins. with three little once. we love you elizabeth. powerful, powerful stories. because god spared your lives, there are five kids between y'all. you haven't had children yet. you have three. you have two. it is awesome. god bless you. a girl battling terminal cancer is sworn in as an honorary officer. >> to keep fighting the fight. >> [inaudible]. >> until. >> until,. >> all of my cancer is gone. >> 2348 all my cancer is gone. ainsley: that brave little girl, the chief who helped fulfill her dream join us coming up. ♪ when did you see the sign?

>> sure. i think that has become a excuse for democrats, is that, take the abortion laws, for example, you were just discussing with your other guests. it is very much about now, trump has appointed conservative justices to the supreme court. let's go crazy. let's promise abortion on the demand up to the date of delivery. let's raise taxes because the president is cutting them. the president wants to build a wall. let's be for open borders. on and on and on. you have this thing. he is for capitalism, let's be for socialism. this is an extreme overreaction. it makes the president look like an adult. looks like he is sensible compared to this. but, it is not something that he has done. they're doing it to themselves. steve: read all about it on the pages of "the new york post." michael, thank you very much. >> thank you,. steve: steve this powerful video is going viral. a 6-year-old girl battling cancer is sworn in as an honorary police officer. that brave little girl, the chief who helped fulfill their dream, thumbs up, they join us next. check in with sandra smith for a preview of coming attractions. >> good morning, everybody. latest on the political crisis in virginia. governor northam still resisting calls to step down. what is happening with all that. nothing off the table when it comes to immigration talks. the latest from the white house as a deadline quickly approaches. the democrats identity melt-down. the latest on 2020. lara trump will be joining us on that. we have an all-star lineup for you. our a-team is on tech. join us in "america's newsroom," the top of the hour. my mom washes the dishes... ...before she puts them in the dishwasher. so what does the dishwasher do?
