corrupt. trump outraged that ted cruz swept all of colorado's 34 delegates this weekend, all without the pretense of a single vote being cast. >> i have gotten millions more votes, not just a couple, millions more votes than cruz. and i have gotten hundreds of delegates more and we keep fighting, fighting, fighting. then you have a colorado where they just get all of these delegates, and it's not a system. there was no voting. i didn't go out there to make a speech. there is no voting. lou: a trump spokesman accused cruz of using what he called gestapo tactics. i'll take all of that up tonight with nationally syndicated radio talk show host laura ingraham. also among our guests, the senior policy advisor stephen miller. trump set to hold a huge rally at the times union center in albany, new york. up to 10,000 people are in the venue. we'll be bringing you the rally live when donald trump takes the stage. stage. hillary clinton who said she had nothing negative to say about bernie sanders has changed her mind and has taken us on a tour of the newly discovered flaws and failings of the

notoriety. if you lose it, you get a lot of attention and notoriety. if you are ted cruz and you pull think out in what is considered to be a donald trump strong point. if you are donald trump maybe not so much. if you are hillary clinton battling with a suddenly sunning bernie sanders, who know. 48 delegate at state for the republicans. one guy could win them all or most of them. on the democratic side we have 8 delegates, all proportionally shared. the democrats have that other little goody, the superdelegates. charlie gasparino,ly claman, and lou dobbs will be joining us in our next segment. at cruz headquarters in milwaukee it wasn't that long ago when think state was supposed to be an easy win for donald trump. it was tailor made for his crowd. then something happened. what's the mood there? reporter: the polls have been showing for a while that this would be potentially a victory for donald trump. then last week we got the two polls from marquette university and fox business poll that showed ted cruz up by 10 point. potentially part of that has to do with the endorsement of scott walk

week of campaign trailand new "fox business poll" showing senator ted cruz with a ten-point lead in wisconsin, and yes, that includes milwaukee. in the democratic corner hillary clinton skipping wisconsin altogether. campaigning in her home state of new york where she is trailing bernie sanders by five points in the battle for wisconsin. will cruz and sanders be able to turn a wisconsin win into momentum? we'll ask katrina pierson how mr. trump is handling this bumpy week on the trail? what happened behind closed doors during the rnc meeting and why is trump m.i.a. on the trail today. >>> the anaconda ad, ted cruz supporter and former reporter on that ad and the lyin' ted pile-on and how the snake goes around the neck. >>> the nuclear summit with more than 50 world leaders, wait until you hear how he describes the iran nuclear deal today. likes the jobs report, the dow jones industrial average near session highs. more than a 200 point reversal after initially falling when the labor department announced the unemployment rate kicked up to 5% but the economy created 215,000 new jobs. c

campaign. trump campaign senior advisor barry bennett. from the cruz camp, national spokesman, ron nehring. and former representative pete hoekstra who supports ohio governor john kasich. this is "risk & reward." i'm deirdre bolton. it's a pivotal election cycle. up for grabs, 42 delegates on the republican side. perhaps a potential change in narrative. for the past 30 years wisconsin has always gone with the front-runner from both parties but tonight may break that pattern. as one analyst says, wisconsin is cruising and feeling the bern jeff flock is in wisconsin. this is open primary. if they want one they throw out the one they don't want to use. what does this mean for tonight? the. reporter: makes it awfully hard to handicap it but as you report, i think, deirdre, possible these voters behind me at this milwaukee voting place could hold the future of this campaign in their hands. first to the front-runner, gop front-runner that is, donald trump. he was behind by 10 points in the latest state poll. another one came out showing him ahead. he stayed in the state this morning. he was in w

. here is where candidates stand so far, according to the latest fox business poll. senator cruz in the lead with 42%. donald trump 32%. governor john kasich with 19%. this is risk and reward, i'm deirdre bolton. 42 republican delegates are up for grabs and bracing rights. we'll take you there now. my colleague son the ground. blake burman is in madison, wisconsin. blake there is a lot going on today for donald trump, for senator cruz and also governor kasich. what are your local sources telling you? reporter: this is the final push, deirdre, here in wisconsin as you mentioned. 42 delegates in play. the way things will shake out tomorrow most likely whoever wins gets either all or most of those 42 delegates. of course donald trump and ted cruz, you just showed numbers there, this is a one-two race, of course both of them want to win but much of the talk was about what happens if nobody gets to the 1237 delegates between now and convention in mid-july, the republican convention. donald trump just wrapped up a rally in the far northwest part of the state, superior, northwest border wi

. ted cruz named his vice presidential nominee. but first as we await this move from donald trump we want to dig into his foreign policy comment from earlier today when he called for an overhaul of the strategy we have taken abroad. take a listen. >> it's time to shake the rust off america's foreign policy. we are getting out of the nation building business and instead focusing on creating stability in the world. to our friend and allies, i say america is going to be strong again. america is going to be reliable again. it's going to be a great and reliable ally again. it's going to be a friend again. we are going to finally have a coherent foreign policy. charles: wha charles: wahlid, i know you hae been advising donald trump on foreign policy. everybody had a piece of it, meaning the experience with regard to the middle east, europe and russia. all this came to him. but he is the one who decided on which point he wanted to raise and he did. charles: on the middle eastern part he says he want to work with our allies in the middle east but want to keep 1.6 billion people out of this c

clinton finishing strong in the badger state but senator ted cruz beat donald tru by a wide 8% margin. senator sanders added to the momentum against hillary clinton with s out of the past seven state wins. this is "rk & reward." i'm deirdre bolton. the wisconsin results make it clear that the race will be longer and have more bruises than previously thought. so here's where candidates stand now. donald trump in the lead. he needs 56% of the remaining delegates to clinch the 1237 to assure nomination. senator cruz needs 82% othe remaining delegates. now some say it is unlikely either candidate hits those marks though trump has closest shot. delegate s separation for both parties about even. hillary clinton and senator sanders abouthe same as the gap between donald tru and senator cruz. so the next contest two weeks away in new york. 291 democratic delegates up for grabs. 95 gop delegates in the pire state. donald trump holding a rally in his home state tonight. connell mcshane is on locaon in long island. connell we see roads he been blocked off. are police preparing for a lot of prote

. you are seeing right now, gop presidential candidates, of course senator cruz picking former republican presidential candidate and former hp ceo carly fiorina as his vp. you can see fiorina on screen. part of that address still addressing crowd there in indiana. this is "risk & reward." i'm deirdre bolton. ted cruz campaigning today ahead of next tuesday's contest in the hoosier state. fox business's jeff flock is on the ground. he is in indianapolis. that is where donald trump will also be holding an event. so, jeff, you are sandwiched between cruz and trump. how is it all going? reporter: you know, deirdre, the funny thing is i'm old enough to have covered in 1984 the event when walter mondale named a, the first woman vice-presidential nominee. that was geraldine ferraro. i don't know if this quite as historical impact of that, but may just have the impact of switching the narrative today on a day after donald trump had such a tremendous victory and made an important speech. now we're all talking about ted cruz again and that is what he needs. he has got to get people here

take a moment. donald trump live from evansville, indiana. >> this is interesting. so now cruz is getting clobbered. we win new york. that's right, "lyin' ted". [applause] he is one dishonest guy. here is what happens. i win new york, incredible victory. we go to the five states. these are very different. you have delaware and rhode island, maryland, connecticut and you have pennsylvania, big, big. so you have three big ones, two beauties on each end, very diverse, very different. one thing they have in common they're all losing a lot of jobs to other countries. tremendous, 45, 50%. used to be i say to my statisticians, give me the information, like on delaware. and then give me pennsylvania the next day and give me maryland. almost like, 45% loss, 50% loss. 55% loss. manufacturing gone. i almost didn't need it. i just go up, i have to say, got about 50% of your jobs are being lost, every place, all over the country. like a disaster t they're being taken away from us. the politicians don't know how to do anything about it. so cruz is getting absolutely killed. kasich is absolutely

signs. bernie wasn't the on the winner last night. ted cruz celebrating after a big win in wisconsin. could this be the turning point in a gop race? >> tonight i a turning point. it's a rallying cry. it's a call from the hard-working men and women of wisconsin to the people of america. and as a result of tonight, as a result of the people of wisconsin defying the media, defying the pundits, i'm more and more convinced our campaign is going to earn the 1,237 delegates needed for the republican nomination. charles: fox newexit polls show cruz commanding support in just about everybody voter category, old, young, and conservative and evangelical christians. joining me now, ron, let me go to you. you are a national spokeman for the ted cruz campaign. big win for you guy last night. larger than the polls suggested. what do you attribute that to? is it more about the establishment, the money against ump or is this a grassroots vote for ted cruz? >> that's a great question. you have to understand the lessonof wisconsin. i think what you sawas a consolidation of the traditional con

ted cruz's quip about new york values, that was evident who cruz and trump shared the same stage for the annual new york gala. >> what are new york values? because you know, people are disputing. >> i'm not disputing and the new yorkers aren't disputing, and most people than new york and watched what we have done. >> i will admit to you i haven't built any buildings in new york city, but i have spent my entire life fighting to defend the constitution and the bill of rights. >> i'll take up the battle of new york with the chairman of the state's conservative party michael long. he'll be here, and hillary clinton and bernie sanders have officially stopped playing nice. the democrats taking part in their most contentious debate yet, one that featured plenty of yelling. >> hold it. hold it. that is not accurate. >> i have stood on the debate page with senator sanders eight prior times. >> interesting comment, but you didn't answer the question. >> i did! yes, i did! >> can i ask -- may i please. i think i have the microphone, wolf? >> go ahead, senator. >> yes, i did, no, i didn't. i

primary election in wisconsin. those donald trump and ted cruz are crisscrossing wisconsin while john kasich seems to have accepted he will be in third place in wisconsin so tonight he's in new york which votes two weeks from today. >> house and the people trying to get in. something is going on, folks. something good is going to happen tomorrow, remember that. >> if we stand together as one united we will win this nomination and we will win the general election and beat hillary clinton in turn this country around. >> why would i get out when i'm the only person who beat hillary in the fall? lou: cruz is the leading and most of the polling over the past two weeks but there is a bolt of lightning that is that the gop race today and there is new hope for trump and his voters, a brand-new arg poll out of wisconsin shows trump now with the template lead over cruz, 42-32. arg poll is an outlier but trump has been saying he quote could surprise tomorrow. also tonight the mainstream liberal media showing its bias. media elites up in arms last week when donald trump stumbled on whether women

. kasich will be the one to fix it, not cruz. it could give kasich some real momentum going into the remainder of the states. >> your guy didn't spend a lot of time in new york. they say his best chance might be the jewish vote on staten island. >> women voted for the first time in america in new york in 1917. he resonates well with woman voters all ages, all faiths. in look at new york i think he will be able to cherry pick a few delegates out of bronx, queens and possibly brooklyn and going up into rochester and the northern part of the state. he is not here tonight because he's in pennsylvania so he's looking forward and beyond. charles: reports of shenanigans going on in pennsylvania. amy, i want to stick with new york. it looks like a sleeper, your guy case, his national polling has been edging you have. he may come in second place. ed is saying if he gets enough delegates this will give him momentum. >> now you have the coming states, especially april 26 such as connecticut, delaware and rhode island where he's expected to do well. behind the scenes as far as the delegate count

what ted cruz has been doing. >> all along, with an apparatused and organization that goes to every state, that goes into louisiana and even though donald wins the state he steals delegates because he knows how to play the rules or by the rules. today he's in, cruz is in colorado with his team, he's setting camp. he's going to get a lot of them. >> these are delegates that are uncommitted, open and the idea is well, can i move them my way, and then cruz is the questioning them whenevgetting them any way can. >> okay, anyway, you know, in new york it's interesting. why is everybody laughing at this? let me finish my point. >> because let me say a little bit more, charlie. >> what i'm trying to say is in new york what cruz will do with his organizations' not going to win new york he knows it but his idea is to keep donald below 50 and pour proportionally take some delegates away. >> there are 95 in new york, right, and a lot of the other states work the same way. if you can drive down the win i understand the math behind there but it still shows donald trump moving forward with more d

california with 49% of the vovotes followed by ted cruz at 22% and john kasich with 20%. hillarclinton n lead over bebernie sanders 48% to 46%. and d trump, he's on top in the hoosier state followed by tedd cruz at 30, and john kasich 16%. van hip, , let me go to you fir. if dond trump wins indiana will be i think th whole t thihg is over. these polls show he's strongnger than people ouough >> that poll rest t in indiana is a bigig surpristoto me. inanana looks a lot like wisconn.n. we expect nenext week, done rsho n n the table with the five states. ted cruz, that's t l last best place the establishment s s to stop donald trump. if donald trumump wins indiana,i don't know how donalald trump gs up off that.t. charles: tre was o one poll where donald trump was up 10 points in wisconsin. things can change. >>>>he unique element with wisconsin is theovernor with an infrastruure that was unique in dynami he doesn't have that. i was veryurprised with these polls. itit indicates there is me kind of tipping point you are seeing cruz tied wit evangelicals. you e mr. trump tied with he sector,

a trump-cruz tickets, they're going to get together. charles: i've got to cut you off. we're going to introduce you to lou dobbs, the best election coverage starts right now. lou: good evening, everybody, i'm lou dobbs. it's 7:00 on the east coast, 6:00 in wisconsin where polls closed in just two hours. it's a battle between two candidates who learned not to like each other, front-runner donald trump and senator ted cruz locked up in a tough fight for votes. cruz looking for first primary victory in a month and trump would cement his path to the republican nomination. >> you can have a big surprise tonight, folks, big surprise. >> you don't want to see donald trump as the nominee. if you don't want to see hillary clinton as the next president, i ask you to come out tomorrow and vote for me. lou: we have the best election coverage for you tonight right here. among our guests, former white house reagan political director ed rollins, pulitzer prize-winning columnist for the "new york post," michael goodwin and trump's campaign senior adviser barry bennett and rebecca kleefisch. >>> re

brassieres projections. governor john said 19 decade. 25% but three delegates. senator ted cruz projected to block away with no delegates pay 14% of the delicate. drumstick raid last night pushed into 845 delegates. so 302 shy of the 1237 needed to clinch the nomination for republicans. in its 52 of the remaining 734 delegates to get the nomination before the cleveland convention. ted cruz third-place finish keeps them at 559 delegates and segment is about 147 delegates at this time. on the democratic side of the race, hillary clinton scored a double-digit win over bernie sanders taken 60% of the vote. clinton victory padding delegate lead, putting her totaled 1893 i had a sanders 1180. these numbers include the super delegates. all the candidates sounded not that they now put towards next tuesday at an even bigger primary contest. >> we where they did buy a lot in the camp aycock. nobody should take delegates simply victor we unless they get those delegates with voters encoding and that is what is going to happen. you watch because the people are going to stand for it. it is a crooked sy

cruz trivia. the winner get any respect. the loser gets smothered. join a i oh. i'm kennnnedy. hillary clinton and bern sanders just taking turns sucker punching each other over who is qualified or least call tide to be president. both, neither? it's dave smith, a comedidian ad host of part of the problem. we have the author of "finding mr. righteous." welcome, everybody. so finally hillary and bernie, they are going at it. think i what we wanted for so long. of the two of them, who is actually least qualified tore unqualified to be president? >> they are bothisqualified because they haven't gone negative until now. he should have b been attacking her a long time ag he left the email alone kenen rh now he feels he isn't go to the email because he shut down that corridor. he should have attacked her long ago. now it's too late. she i right. he hasn't been a democrat. he's been proudly a socialist for a long time. kennedy: i want to be part of my team where i make money and get a job. so let's talk about democrat versus repubcans. who isorse right now with the infighting? >> the

points behind ted cruz, but trump is banking on the fact that independents can vote in wisconsin and could complicate things for senator ted cruz. the new "fox business poll" out shows trump is leading among independents in wisconsin, 37 to cruz's 26. among independents. governor john kasich could take some of those voters from trump. without a doubt, wisconsin will be a key test whether trump managed to bounce back from a tough week in which he was forced to defend his campaign manager against battery allegations and, of course, the remarks that the donald himself made about abortion. listen to trump last night on bill o'reilly. >> this was a long convoluted subject, we talked about catholicism and his religion, and chris went back and forth about that. this was a very convoluted discussion, which frankly they don't run on television because it was too long. but just as i said it, and i must tell you this is the same -- my stance is the same stance as ronald reagan, and if, in fact, abortion was outlawed, the person befo performing thatt is responsible, not the woman. >> the normall

party if cruz gets the nomination. charles: it won't be ugly and boisterous no matter. what have great weekends, we appreciate it. at home, we appreciate it. the numbers have been great. appreciate it. keep the feedback coming to me. in the meantime, leaving it with my man, tom sullivan. >> and good evening, everybody, i'm tom sullivan in for lou dobbs. republican presidential candidates making final push for votes ahead of the new york primary next tuesday. it's a primary that donald trump he's expected to win by a landslide in part because the voters of new york have not forgiven or forgotten ted cruz's quip about new york values, that was evident who cruz and trump shared the same stage for the annual new york gala. >> what are new york values? because you know, people are disputing. >> i'm not disputing and the new yorkers aren't disputing, and most people than new york and watched what we have done. >> i will admit to you i haven't built any buildings in new york city, but i have spent my entire life fighting to defend the constitution and the bill of rights. >> i'll take up

polls showing the gap between donald trump and ted cruz has narrowed. for democrats, hillary clinton may be looking at her sixth straight loss to bernie sanders. anything can happen. it is all up to the voters. david. david: wisconsin going to the polls. let's go to straight to fox news's doug mckelway. he is at a polling location in waukesha. no gop candidate in the past 20 years won the primary without carrying this particular county. very important. doug, how is turnout so far? reporter: it has been really, really high. in fact we just got off the phone with the county clerk here in waukesha county said they are expecting 80% turnout. that is absolutely remarkable number. statewide they're expecting 1.75 million voters, absolutely unprecedented. we're at waukesha west high school, this polling place. first thing you see when you walk in here is registration table. same day registration. open registration, you can be a democrat and register to vote in the republican primary and or be republican registered to vote in democratic primary. you move down the line. tell them what ward yo

trump, and it is not john kasich. so could that be? ted cruz? yes. he's going to detail it all in a few minutes we are told. how does that compare to getting bobby knight's backing? of course if you're donald trump, you say bobby knight. but of course looking forward to getting backing. it could go a long way to helping ted cruz, hoping to get some sort of fire going here. caitlyn burns as to whether you think it will. caitlyn, what do you think? >> well, i think cruz is pulling out all the stops. obviously we saw him pull out carly fiorina, the vice presidential pick, really needed this endorsement because sandy such a make or break state for him. at the same time pence is in a election fight of his own, so he's cautious about weighing in. but also getting a lot of heat from conservative activists who wanted to weigh him in this race really against trump and in support of cruz. pence is considered one of the most conservative governors in the country. a conservative congressman. his backing could certainly help cruz. but i also think it puts cruz in a position where if he doesn't win i

hour, trump tops cruz by 8 points in indiana. 41-33. and in california, trump beats cruz by 27 points. 49-22. john kasich at 20. on the democratic side, hillary clinton feeling more confident about her chances during a campaign stop in pennsylvania today, she spent more time attacking trump's tone than bernie sanders. >> we've got to change the culture so that it is no longer acceptable for people to say what they say about others. you can disagree with somebody, that's fair game. but to launch personal attacks. to try to intimidate and degrade somebody else is off-limits. and we have to be strong about that. >> i'll take all that up with "weekly standard"'s fred barnes and town hall's guy benson as well. >>> tonight, critics blasting the obama administration over reports it will pay iran nearly $9 million for its nuclear material. this news coming just days after the administration could not say whether iran was spending some of its $3 billion of newly unfrozen assets on terrorism. they don't know. >>> former pentagon official k.t. mcfarland will weigh in on that coming up. >>> top s

be able to do that is because he's leading ted cruz in all of the polls in upcoming primary states, including new york. a brand-new field poll out of california shows trump with a seven-point lead over cruz. a washington post poll out of maryland showing trump with a ten-point lead over governor john kasich, cruz running third. this week could hardly have started better for cruz, but his wisconsin win hasn't produced momentum in any other state to this point. and new york is downright hostile to the senator from texas. qult the new york daily news" didn't mince words with its front page saying, take the fu train, ted cruz. cruz not trying to win new york but trying to block trump from winning 50% of the vote and taking all of the state's 95 delegates. >> donald trump has been supporting liberal democratic politicians for 40 years. i have no experience with that. >> well, i'll take all of that up with the former republican chairman of the party, van hipp among our guests, and i'll talk about who's better for jobs, the economy with david sokol. also bernie sanders doubling down on hi

enough delegates to make it mathematically possible for ted cruz to get to the magic delegate number of 1237 needed to lock up the republican nomination. welcome to "the intelligence report". i am trish reagan. we have donald trump and hillary clinton commanding victories putting them closer to their party's nomination and both talking like they have the whole thing locked up. >> the race for the democratic nomination is in the home stretch and victory is in sight. >> we don't have much of a race anymore, ted cruz is just about mathematically eliminated. trish: did you hear that? he is calling ted cruz senator cruz and not lying ted. kind of a difference. is trump taking a more presidential poll? our panel will way and. saudi arabia, increasing tensions with the kingdom as lawmakers and 9/11 family look for a bill that would allow victims to sue the saudi's. the white house is certain to veto the bill and saudi's have threatened to hurt our economy if it takes sides with saudi arabia, is he doing that? general jack came will way and. our very broken borders. did you know there are mo
