for a genocide in yemen. he just left france a little while ago and president macron, our liberal hero, he said what he sees in mbs is the true spirit of the french revolution. someone smartly said, is it because of the beheadings? is that what you see this connection. saudi arabia, iran is a terrible tyrannical authoritarian regime that regularly denies the rights of its citizens, oppresses religious minorities, and supports terror groups around the region. true. i got that out of the way. saudi arabia, our best friend, being led by the man who was brought from coast-to-coast in this country and the funding of ridiculous profiles written by these journalists who just basically fell all over themselves around him, saudi arabia is a jacksonian, authoritarian backward kingdom that slaughters its own people, that denied them the basic right, but might very soon allow women to drive, so therefore he is this great reformer all the sudden. we are being fed lies by the saudi regime and the millions upon millions of

yemen has a full-fledged civil war going on only at 11, france at 10. we have violence on a scale that is unlike any other in the country. school shootings, 17 since parkland. an average of 1.4 shootings per week. americans own the most guns in the world. by cnn, americans own nearly half the estimated 650 million civilian owned guns in the world. with that level of violence and gun ownership in the country, how can we stop "the cycle"? >> first of all, one is too many. it's not okay that school shootings are even happening. we need to come together, the youth, and those who are fighting this issue, especially in communities of color fighting this, we need to come together and not worry about the headlines and make the change. >> why did you decide to launch your june 2nd youth march from trump tower? >> we need to stand -- it's a symbol. we need to send a message to washington, to the nra and to president trump. this is not okay and no more schools can be shot up and no more guns can be in our communities. >> and that it's not going to blow over. we're

we're seeing escalation, oil inventory drawdowns are rising and escalation from the saudi conflict in yemen. people pretty upbeat, got to tell you. back to you guys. david: gerri willis thank you very much. let's bring in today's panel. kevin kelly, john petrides, and charlie hurt from "the washington times." he is also fox news contributor. john, first to you, in a bear market you start out strong and end the day slow. in a bull market you do it the other way around. we've been too accustomed over past couple weeks to a bear market scene, you start out strong, you end weak. looks like we turned the corner. we're going back into the bull market. you start out so-so you end up strong. >> this is investtores taking a step back realizing tariffs are not that big to derail this global synchronized growth we're seeing in the economy. we have earnings around the corner. we have investors using opportunity to dip, to load up portfolio buy stocks on the cheap. david: charlie, one man has been responsible over the past couple days turning us around on trade. that is larry kudlow. >> could be sure. t

support for saudi arabia, which is engaged in a war on the houthi in yemen. and i joined many others, not a majority but well into the 40s, if you will, out of the 100 senators, who said we should have that debate on the floor of the senate and were very concerned that the president has exceeded our constitutional powers there. here again it raises similar issues. if something is a single strike, it's generally seen in a different category than if it's a campaign. a campaign then means you're at war. that certainly invokes the requirement to have to come to congress. now, the president could have come to congress and asked for authorization to respond to syria's use of chemical weapons throughout then tire last year. but has failed to do so. i think anything beyond just a very limited strike i think you'll see strong and powerful calls for congress to say that this is breaking the constitutional boundary. >> all right. senator jeff merkley, thank you. >> you're welcome. thanks. >> here to help make sense of tonight's extraordinary presidential meltdown, natas

the somalias, the south sudans, yemens, countries which are badly fractured. we're arguing for is very difficult, because it's much easier to vaccinate a child, to build a school. that's not easy but relatively straightforward compared with building honest tax authorities and honest governments and tackling corruption, but doesn't mean we should. try. >> are all the governments feeling besieged either by immigration, by refugees. any number of populist politics, the economy, are they going to do it? are they going to have the political will? >> if we say to them we're going to stop piling up priorities on to you. stop telling you what to do and how to do it. we want you to come up with a plan to bring your nation together. to bring disputed parties together, to develop your country and we will back you. that's a far better prospect of long-term success and this applies not just to donor governments and usaid. sometimes those fragile states are treated same as other countries. take the imf, pointless saying to the poorest country in the world you've got to have

there's phenomenon in yemen, there's cholera in yemen affecting potentially hundreds of thousands of people. it's a catastrophe that they didn't think it through. and somebody told me that which is an american i know who knows mbs very well and who sees him regular said he felt like he had to do something. and there was a very similar kind of -- in the way that how rash it was that mbs did in lebanon, same thing. he said he felt he had to strike back at the iranians so even if it doesn't work he feels like he has to throw a punch. you can't really do that in foreign affairs because there's like third and fourth order effects. >> can i just ask you about israel? we all remember in 2002 the saudi king at the time presented the arab peace plan in which he pledged that all the arab countries would recognize israel's right to peacefully exist, his right to its land alongside palestinian lands in return for a withdrawal to the '67 borders and nothing has changed since then. that's the basic framework of peace. until president trump came along and decided that jerusalem was going to be decl

we've had breaking news and you brought in yemen, too, a lot of things we could talk about. thank you for bringing in with that context. appreciate it. leland. leland: continuing coverage of last night's air strike. breaking news out of the white house and how the message sent to bashar al-assad resonated not only with president trump's base, but our enemies abroad as well. >> the purpose of our actions tonight is to establish a strong deterrent against the production, spread and use of chemical weapons, establishing this deterrent is a vital national security interest of the united states. after my dvt blood clot, i had a lot on my mind. could this happen again? was my warfarin treatment right for me? my doctor told me about eliquis. eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots... eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. eliquis had both and that turned around my thinking. don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. eliquis can cause serio

complying with the agreement they are proliferating ballistic missiles to the hands of terrorists in yemen for lobbying in saudi arabia, for example. they are produced another ballistic missile components and of course they are exporting islamism, radical islam throughout the region. i think the idea that you look at iran holistically and also try to empower the people of iran who want to take some the theocratic regime and you can't do that. we should focus the world as cortes who burned his ships to focus the attention of his men and their expert on a project and so too should be too should be given to the arena deal and get the europeans office appeasement track. eric: pompeii was tough in blunt about the arena deal. here's what he said in tel aviv. >> this deal is very flawed. if we can't fix it, he'll withdraw from the deal. a tree into what think the president will do? >> they keep asking for more extensions. they deliver nothing so it's time to get out and have a new strategy. eric: all right, christian white in, we'll see you in a couple weeks. >> president trump opting out of the

whether the ballistic missiles and cyber activities and interference in the wars in yemen and syria. >> bill: republican senators tim scott and marco rubio. welcome back to our program here. you have a joint operation together. we'll talk about it in a moment here. senator rubio, we may be interrupted by trump and macron in their oval office meeting. first on iran what do you think the president should do with this deadline coming up may 12? >> the iran deal is a bad deal. if our european allies will increase missile sanctions on the ballistic missile program it's something to look at. no matter how you feel about the iran deal you cannot believe it somehow grants iran immunity to do what they want on terrorism and anti-israeli activity on cyberattacks and on developing ballistic missiles that can reach europe and the united states. and so i hope our european allies will step forward. they are the ones that like the deal. we hope they'll step forward and sanction all the companies that help build the missiles. otherwise i think the president should get out of the deal. >> bill: get o

weapons and money and evidence on the ground shows that iran is expanding in iraq, syria, lebanon, yemen and not showing signs it is retreating and going back in a peaceful direction. >> heather: he made a good point saying they got $150 billion after the deal. do you see anything being done in the communities to make anything better? no. >> look, when the iranian regime, the same one expanding receives billions of dollars you'll see, look at what they're spending on. not spending on schools or roads. they're not spending on the actual iran civil society. they're spending on weapons and buying from russia the most advanced weapons. the same missiles that have been fired against not just the saudis but against our navy as well. >> heather: something else he talked about was israel and palestine. he said this basically that both i believe that each people anywhere has a right to live in their peaceful nation. i believe the palestinians and israelis have the right to have their own land. >> look, he is among the new generation of arab leaders who wants to resolve the israeli/palestinian and

fourth one is to generate the conditions for a political solution to contain iran in the region, in yemen, in syria, in iraq and in lebanon. on these topics i did not change. i constantly said that we needed to find the framework so that together and with the paris of the region and with the iranian leaders manage to find a deal. i, therefore, would like us to commit to that effect in the weeks and months to come. this is the only way to bring about stability. france is not naive when it comes to iran. we have also a lot of respect for the iranian people. which through their history has always shown its strength, but we do not repeat the mistakes of the past. each time we tried to unilaterally replace the sovereignty of the people. we brought about some more -- but for our allies we want sustainable stability and i believe that the discussions we've had together make it possible to open the way, to pave the way for a new agreement, an agreement on which we will work and beyond our european partners, we would like

deal by agreeing to these additional measures to shine a brighter light, very aggressive actions in yemen, syria and lebanon. i think we have the makings of a comprehensive policy so i think macron is right to do this. the state department has worked with the europeans faithfully. i think they see eye to eye. the only question is will mike pompeo and jim mattis be able to convince president trump to do do the right thing. stay in a deal and agree to these additional measures. >> the last man in the room with the president may be john bolton. >> that's right. he's on record of saying he opposes this. he's a strong character in this whole debate. don't discount jim mattis and mike pompeo. if the u.s. walks out of iran deal, a lot of people think that will make the robprobability of some agreement with north korean much less certain. they will have to wonder about the trustworthiness of the united states. whether when we say we'll do something we keep our word. our country committed to the iran deal. it was president obama. if president trump leaves it there's a big price to pay in american

>> well, i think that's a big ask of saudi arabia, already conducting an operation in yemen which helps the u.s. with its counter terrorism mission against al qaeda and arabian peninsula there. and saudi arabia has been part of the coalition fighting isis in iraq and syria. look, there is another way that they could continue this mission, which is to withdraw most of the u.s. forces into iraq and bases there and then do in and out missions. that's a way to keep it going. but yes, this is going to be costly. i think there might be a bit of arguing behind closed doors about who is going to pay the bulk of this mission. >> interesting. kim dozier, thank you so much. barbara starr, appreciate it. stocks are sliding amid the escalating trade battle between the united states and china. why is president trump tweeting, quote, you can't lose? sources telling cnn that the president is not currently a target in the russia investigation but what does that mean? does it mean he's in the clear? maybe not. we'll have details ahead. ♪ with t-mobile, get the fastest network ever, now on the fastest s
