of 2005. governor belle edwards of louisiana will join me live in moments with the very latest that he has with us, our coverage begins tonight with rick leventhal who is standing by watching all of this in new orleans. good evening, rick. >> good evening, martha preconditions not bad, light rain falling, no wind to speak of but in the usual night here on bourbon street and here in the french quarter because a lot of restaurants and bars have already closed or will be closing very soon because they know conditions will deteriorate rapidly. it's not really about the wind on the storm, it's about the rain and the potential love flooding where they've closed 200 floodgate in and around the new orleans area. the first time ever that the river when a hurricane was threatening to hit, the river near 17 feet now. the levees are designed to hold back 20-25 feet. we did speak to the army corps of engineers a short time ago we tells us the system has been tested for the past few months because of unusually high amounts of rain and snow over the winter and spring, so the river has been at flood stage and they are confident the gates and levees will hold. >> when you look at a storm event, we've seen even on this one, things change and they change rapidly and that's why we always stress this is what we are seeing now but conditions can change the residents need to stay alert and keep aware of what is going to happen and what's projected to happen. rain shouldn't be a huge impact on the elevation of the river itself, but rain and is a factor in the interior of the city. >> some 3,000 members of the louisiana national guard have been mobilized. they are staged in and around the video new orleans and beyond, also staging high water rescue field goals along with food and supplies. evacuation orders were issued for numerous parishes in low-lying areas and also for grand isle where the major roadway in and out, l.a. 1, only way in and out is underwater. not bad now, martha, but expected to get a whole lot worse overnight and tomorrow where they could get 10-20 inches, perhaps 2 feet or more in some areas. >> martha: this news coming in. rick, thank you very much. joining me now as promised, louisiana governor john bel edwards. governor, thank you very much. i know you have a lot going on so we really appreciate you giving our viewers a us this evening how things look for your state? >> first of all, a very serious situation. the storm will come sure about 7:00 tomorrow morning and the coast of central louisiana and franklin parish should be a category one hurricane. my concern is we'll have citizens who understand it's a category one and they may not take it as seriously as they should have because this always has been a rain event predominantly and will have 15-20 inches of rain across most of southern louisiana for about 24 hours, that rain will fall in about 24 hours. we need people to take every precaution to be patient, listen to their local elected officials, and we are doing everything we can to posture ourselves with national guard, state police, with buses, shelters today so that we will be ready for that. i'm very thankful that president trump yesterday signed off on the declaration request that i made so that federal assistance is available to us and able to coordinate with federal agencies and get movement sooner to what otherwise would be the case of the central equipment and personnel for life saving activities here in louisiana and also to protect property. >> martha: everybody obviously thinks back to the worst-case scenario, katrina, and i believe, correct me if i'm wrong, when the hurricane hit it was down to a category two at that point, right? >> that's right. but look, i don't believe that hurricane katrina is particularly instructive as it relates to this hurricane. the levee system in new orleans is the strongest it's ever been because of the generous support we received from folks all over the country and billions of dollars have been invested. we don't believe -- i know you just had a report from the corps of engineers in new orleans that the river will overcome the levees and so forth. two days ago we had a test run in new orleans with a very heavy downpour in a very short. lack of time. we know the pumps are working, we know the electric generation is in order. we feel it relatively about new orleans for this storm, but there'll be challenges across all of southern louisiana when the storm comes on shore tomorrow. >> of course. as rick leventhal reported, there have been some tests obviously of the levees because you have a ton of rain and a ton of weather in the area and things seem to be in good shape which is what everybody absolutely wants to hear. how are you doing with the mandatory evacuations you put in place. are people heeding those? >> they've gone well. not a whole lot of those. we have some in jefferson parish and low-lying areas, lower plaquemines parish. we have many more voluntary evacuations. i believe the people of louisiana are taking this seriously. we have very dedicated local public officials. we actually have more experience than we would like with disasters. but this is going to be a tough one and i worry an awful lot about the rain as it falls not as it relates to the mississippi river's but all the other rivers that we have across south louisiana. they are going to fail and swell and cause real problems. even as the rain leaves tomorrow night or early on sunday, the rivers are going to continue to track water through all the tributaries and enter a flood stage and high flood stages for some time to come. >> martha: that's a great point coming up in there. we've seen that scenario before where the main rivers fill up and gets pushed into these outer lying areas and areas that don't even get hit by the hurricane or storm are the ones that end having the flooding. we know you are on top of this and we thank you taking a few moments. we will continue to update everybody throughout the course of tonight and into tomorrow, of course. governor edwards, i hope to see you tomorrow again. >> we appreciate it. >> martha: coming up next, emotional battles on capitol hill today. did you see this? as the trump administration is preparing nationwide raids targeting thousands of people this weekend. big clash on both sides on this debate over illegal immigration. and some democrats advising illegal immigrants, do not open your doors when the i.c.e. agents come knocking. victor david hanson up next with his thoughts tonight. >> when these women tell me they were put into a cell and that their sink was not working and we check the sink them will make ourselves and the sink is not working and told her to drink out of the toilet bowl, i believe them. liberty mutual customizes your car insurance, so you only pay for what you need. nice! but uh, what's up with your partner?

>> it's the borders of reality. we have 22 million people here residing illegally according to the mit yellow study, and we are discussing deporting maybe a million, and i doubt it'll be that much but already those who have received a summons that they are in summary violation of federal law, if we do all of that that may be 5% of the people who are here currently living unlawfully. it wouldn't make a dent in the numbers because that many people, that exact number of people, 1 million have already arrived illegally in the first six months of this year. as far as the hysteria, most of the protocols, not all, but most of them that separate children from their parents going to court hearings were inaugurated during the obama administration. we still haven't deported 365,000 annually, that was the highest point in the obama administration. something this administration has not done that. you look at the people who have tragically died, it's about 10-12 in the first circle years of the trump administration, about the same as obama won 12 people died the last year of his office. what is all of this about? it's about demography and politics, the 2020 campaign, but about human beings. iot of out-of-the-box solutions we can enact right now appear there are 4,000 colleges and universities that have a million dorm rooms open for the next 90 days. how original would that be if we had the american southwest, century communities stand up and say, please, send these families. we have legal and health resources on campus. we have empty rooms. it would be a fantastic way for a lot of cash-strapped universities to become contractors and be reimbursed by the federal government. >> martha: you make a great point. there are a lot of facilities around this country and it seems as if that might rob some people of their argument. if there isn't chaos at the border, and if there isn't overcrowding which, by the way, we've known was coming our way for quite some time, there are creative solutions. if it was all about making sure that we could find safer, cleaner -- not safe or necessarily but, you know, the border patrol says that these are safe conditions, but there are creative ways to solve some of these problems. i'd like to play this from the former i.c.e. director when he talked about scenes that have haunted him. >> i'm the only one who has worn in green uniform and been on the line. i'm the only one who found dead aliens found on the trail abandoned by smugglers because they are not worth money anymor anymore. 19 dead aliens including a 5-year-old boy who suffocated to death in his father's arms. i was there. and i saw and i smelled it. it's terrible. i still have nightmares to this day. >> martha: and when those things were happening in those things are still happening, and a lot of folks who were in that room today who were saying there were no crisis, it's ridiculous, that we are even discussing thi this. >> that was only because to solve the crisis, president trump suggested he might have to shut down the government and he did so or that he would have i.c.e. raids on people -- but now he hasn't done that yet, here's a crisis. we do have another crisis, martha. 600,000 americans living on the streets of mostly progressive cities. i just got back from san francisco, there are people who were eating, defecating, with vermin. my god, i wish these people had toilets. they have no toilets but something out of the middle ages yet they are on the streets of america's major cities and there are 600,000 of them but no one seems to be able to talk about them or do anything about them. very cynical. i'm almost... i really think we should just say, where is the mexican government who makes $30 billion a year on remittances? where are the latin american governments that make another $30 billion? where are the ethnic activists that like a constituency? where is the tech democratic party who they feel they are changing demographics? a lot of cynicism going on -- i do not think we have to put up with pontifications of the self-righteous virtue signal dollars because they are not worried about humanity or the real tragedy in their midst. >> deftly concerned that the cameras are on when they want to stand up and emailed. you are right, very practical solutions that are not necessarily where congress seems to be coming up with beer victor davis hansen, thank you, sir. thank you for being here tonight. >> thank you. >> martha: when we come back, catherine herridge and what's really going on for this is so intriguing. what's going on with the robert mueller hearings?

"the lion king "is a wonderful story, it's about redemption, grace, endurance. it's based on hamlet, it's based on the books of exodus and genesis. it's not about fascism but because the left has become so culturally illiterate, the only thing they can referred to in the cultural criticism is hitler. everything they don't like is hitlerian, fascist, or nazi. this is a very racist article big he at one point implies that black skin is some sort of disability. this is absurd. his main contention is that kingdoms in general are fascistic, this is news to the british kingdom -- if the left want to go after kingdoms, i welcome it. go after "the lion king," only going to help the right. >> martha: before i go to you, i think people might be scratching their heads saying, what is this referring to exactly?

>> one, i think it's disingenuous to lump the whole left into this one particular arthur. i think this one particular author, his opinion is misplaced. the setting of this movie is in africa. the entire cast for this new particular movie is majority african-american cast, the likes of donna glover, beyonce knowles. beyonce knowles might be the egot, the highest ever for an actor to get in this particular movie. i want to say, i think it's disingenuous by the number two the fact they cast an entire black cast, these actors some of these voices that they utilize here was impressive, speaks to that. i think that once again i think this author is misplaced. the mistake you are making to lump the whole left in with this particular critic is one, problematic, and i think two come disingenuous to say the entire left feels this way because i think a lot of people are going to go to the movie this weekend. >> martha: let me pull one more quote here. i think you both agree that the author of this piece is misguided. he says, doubling down on disney's historical obsession with patriarchal monarchies, it places the audience's point of view squarely with the autocratic liens whose pride literally looks down on all of society's weaker groups, a kind of trump tower of the african savanna. michael, it is laughable. actually. perhaps it was just to get attention, which i think we can crop to having given him in some ways tonight. the whole idea there isn't good and evil and there aren't powerful figures in the world, one of the things they say at the beginning of the movie, the lessons that life isn't fair. those are basic tenants of the kinds of stories that kids read, learn, learn about good and bad in the world. >> of course. this is a deconstruction of everything we like and know to be good and true and beautiful. he doesn't like political order. he doesn't like this lovely story and all of the grace and wonderful things that go along with it. eye of course agree that most leftists i know agree that this is a ridiculous column. but what it does show is a principle we've seen broadly on the left the last few years which is they call everything they do not like fascist. part of the reason this column is so stupid is he doesn't seem to understand what fascism is. it's a word that's been defined it down to nothing. i suggest we retire it entirely from "the washington post" into pop culture -- >> let me push back a little bit but one thing i think that's interesting the way the author is misguided, if you understand africa, right, the history of the continent, and realize the reason why africa right now is divided the way it is has to do with colonialism at the time -- prior to, africa was very tribal and in that time tribe had kings and some of the tribes had queens. some tribes were very matriarchal, sometimes very patriarchal. the pendant. the reason africa the way it is now has everything to do with western civilization and the fact it was colonial eyes. it's actually quite the opposite of what the author is talking about. >> martha: thank you very much. good input. thanks for being here. >> good to see you. >> martha: coming up next?

>> i'm on robert foster's side and i spoke to him earlier today. not trying to impose his viewpoint and anyone else. a commitment that he and his wife made together that he is honoring. i worked on the campaign trail, i've done some of these right along spirit done a lot of one-on-one interviews with reporters and provide pieces with my former bosses but you don't need 16 hours of unfettered access. job is not hindered and made the right decision by not trusting this reporter. because clearly her motivations are not good. she has chosen to use this story to elevate her own status. >> he's fund-raising off of it and all of that. >> they should not be a news story. quite frankly it's astonishing that people care this much about it. >> i think it's a little odd. i think -- i understand that they the agreement that he and his wife has. it's an extremely small staff. >> they didn't need to make an issue out of it at all. bigger that's not fair. what had happened, the conversation never that point because she immediately wn and it became a national -- >> should've said to her we aren't going to do this unless you bring someone with you and that's how it went. >> she's the one that requested the interview. talk to him today, he said he'd be open to the idea of asking a volunteer or campaign staffer which, mind you, he's incredibly small staff. only him and his campaign manager that travel. he would have been open to inviting someone else from his team to go on the right along with him but never let it get to that point because she made it a national story to elevate her own status. >> this is ridiculous. he is professionally disenfranchising 51% of the population. that's what's going on here. we've talked about this before with the mike pence rule. there is ton of data that shows that women get left behind professionally when men do not mentor, they did not allow personal communications, close offices. it's 5:00, can't talk to you. it's a mockery of the #metoo to get a reporter who was openly gay -- >> >> it's irrelevant. >> if i was this reporter, i would be furious i couldn't get the opportunity just because i'm a woman, but foster is not a loan in this. going off of your point, sheryl sandberg's organization recently released a study and they found that 60% of male bosses are uncomfortable mentoring junior level female employees and that's a 32% increase from last year. it almost seems like them #metoo is a wonderful thing but it's in the opposite. >> we also have to be cautious allowing the #metoo movement to close doors professionally for women because that could become a bit of a cop-out. it's an easy way for men to say, oh, -- >> i've worked in an office where the individual subscribes to this belief system and never once did i feel like it hindered my career because this was an office where women were elevated and they held the highest positions in the office. i don't agree with that. >> we have a female ceo, we have one in our company who does a fantastic job, needs to have a private conversation with one of our colleagues? should she not be able to close the door and speak with other executive? >> that would be her viewpoint. if that's a commitment she and her husband made, i'd support that. >> it just seems so unrealistic though. >> now, it's not. >> if you are married you can't have a one-on-one conversation -- >> look at what happened to president trump, a woman took him to court for battery. if you look at the video, kissed her on the cheek in public and said we are going to get you to the white house -- >> are professional women have to suffer? >> vice president pence's spokesperson is a woman. >> professional men are also suffering because of this. look what happened to joe biden where there was headline after headline coming out and some of them where he touched me on the shoulders too long or he hugged me a little bit too closely. it was headline news. he was vilified for that. it doesn't seem fair. >> doesn't seem fair but i presume that senator foster got married before the #metoo rule happen. this rule, call it the billy graham rule -- >> the data from the lien in foundation self imposed by man. but not because of enough uptick, it's because men want to do this. if you want to be a public servant, he wants to be governor of mississippi and cannot sit in a car with a woman by himself?
