talk about border funding. i'm told the first day the mood was good, however, no movement on the first day. senator richard. shelby: says now the staff can go back and figure out how both side can get to a yes. >> smash the technology does not stop anyone from crossing into the u.s. illegally. if that is happening, our borders are not secure. our border patrol tells us they need physical barriers to help them do their job. not from coast to coast. but strategically placed where traffic is highest. reporter: the democrats handed out a position paper. from the position paper's clear they want border security, but they say it does not need to include a barrier. >> border security is not overly reliant on physical barriers

which the trump administration has failed to dem crate as cost effective as opposed to better technology and more personnel. reporter: fed chairman jerome powell says in the short term the gdp will snap back. but there could still be some long-term effects. >> if there were going to be a person in the or lasting effect wish it would be from a longer shutdown or perhaps a longer shutdown and that would be through the channel of loss of confidence in our ability to make policy in the united states. liz: we are going to take to you fox news william lajeunesse in tijuana, mexico where even more migrant caravans are starting to

inundated the border. reporter: tijuana is expecting 1,500 migrants to come here the next 7 to 10 days. they may have to reup on one of their shelters to handle this influx. homeland security is tracking three caravans coming up from honduras and guatemala. some say mexico is encouraging this by issuing humanitarian visas. some will stay here in mexico, that's why tijuana is upset. they feel like it's a federal responsibility. on the letters come to the united states. yesterday people lining up at the port of entry to claim asylum. now the u.s. has a new program to limit' so the individuals will have to stay here while

wasting their time if they are not talking border barriers. under secretary of defense for policy, his name is john ruth. he confirmed in testimony yesterday, he says the u.s. coast code does -- the u.s. code does allow the president that's authorizes the pentagon to fight the war on drugs. what do you think of that, sir? >> absolutely. that's one of the fundamental roles of our commander-in-chief is to keep us safe. but the best solution will come through the legislative process. that's why i call on our political leaders, particularly on the left. let's get a deal and it will include physical barriers. liz: i.c.e. arrested 118 illegal

immigrants during a five-day period in january. they had weapons position. d weapons possession charges and child abusage more. >> there are real people being impacted by these illegal immigrants. those are convicted felons. those have convicted criminals engage in dangerous criminal activity as a result of the broken border. we know what needs to be done there. it will take physical barriers, but it will also take more than that. >> howard schultz says the wall is insanity. shawn duffy says if president trump does not get a wall then democrats win in 2020. what do you think?

>> i think we should set aside the politics. you need to secure our ports of entry. you need smart technology and you need people. together with $5.7 billion, we can get there. liz: stocks soaring, hitting a high. we have key earnings at the bell. microsoft missed on revenue. tesla has about a month to rally 21% higher or pay a 50-50 tonight cash on stocks. hillary vaughn has the details on facebook's big square and it's today lating privacy fight with apple. >> there is a lot going on with facebook. but their shares are soaring. facebook reporting earnings of

starbucks ceo, showered schultz, both are going after high-tax policies of elizabeth warren and alexandria ocasio-cortez. the washington post itself is saying there are no realistic policy ideas in d.c. anymore. it's saying senator warren realistically can't run on that policy idea. it's all about political theater and getting the headlines. >> maybe, just maybe the democrats will go back to their roots and become kennedy democrats. jack kennedy cut taxes dramatically. cut taxes on traded products. these were the kennedy democrats. i'm just hoping they go back to the roots take on economics. and why not.

liz: jfk pound out rightly, i think, there was a recession practically every other year in the 50s because of high taxes. watch bloomberg and schultz clark with senator warren over her high-tax ideas. >> we need a healthy economy. we shouldn't be embarrassed our system. if you want to look at a system that is non-capitalistic, look at th the what was one of the wealthiest countries in the world, venezuela, and today people are starving to death. >>it is an idea that has no merit. she knows this can't come to pass. these are false campaign promises to make noise. liz: a dozen countries in europe said no to this form of taxation

it's unconstitutional. >> thank goodness it is because it should be. but these tax are ridiculous. you can't tax an economy into prosperity. when the democrats were pro growth, they year wonderful. look at the boom under john f. kennedy. and joe kennedy, iii, who is in congress right now. i hope he goes back to his roots. his grandfather and uncle were great presidential contenders. liz: it's about the open fire hydrant of spending that's the problem. you know what's interesting? the shutdown showed how precarious american finances are. do you think that's why the tax the rich push is part of the debate? it got walter mondale a big

loss. >> that was a close race, 49-1. and he barely won minnesota. he was a phenomenal politician and great politician, but you can't run against reagan. he wins. growth and economics is the issue. you will never win an election by trying to tax the economy and prosperity. it doesn't work. i want your reaction to fox's dana perino asking schultz why he's not running as a democrat. >> if i ran as a democrat which would i not do, i would have to be disingenuous running on a platform they are moving toward, government takeover of healthcare, free college for everyone, a job for everyone. it tallies $20 trillion on a $1

trillion level of debt. it's not real 60s temperature. >> they tell us the trump tax plan and the trump economics is the correct thing. they may disagree on a lot of other stuff. but trump's economics are the way to go. i don't understand the democrats for going the other way. obviously they never held a real job in their lives and they don't understand incentives on a personal and cry vat level. -- personal and private level. they have all run companies and created wealth. i'm glad we'll have trump, bloomberg and schultz running there. how much better can you get? three great guys on economics. liz: illinois, michigan and

wisconsin in states of emergency. the death toll climbing from the arctic freeze that's blasting much of the country. folks are warned to not open their mouths when they go outside and breathe too much cold air it's too dangerous. the crisis in venezuela. trish regan joins us from highlights from her exclusive interview with opposition leader juan guaido. this mayor escaped maduro and he wants democracy and freedom

liz: new data out of the state of california compiled in the report. "l.a. times" did the story. it shows equipment and gear from

three of california's largest utilities sparked more than 2,000 fires in 3 1/2 years. let's bring in former gubernatorial candidate john cox. california regulators cite -- i can't get over the story. we have been reporting the fires. the state has find these companies 9 times for safety violations. people died because branches were not cleared, john. >> yes it's a tragedy. the utilities in california have a bad history. they have been one of the biggest swamp creatures, spreading money all over sacramento. now they are feeling the effects of these politicians going after them. i have got to tell you, the politicians have also not covered themselves in glory. they have failed time and again to manage the forest.

they haven't cleared out deand diseased trees. they have not built fire breaks. they are flying equipment with bullet holes in them from vietnam. we want to make sure we devote our resources to clearing out these forests. work with the federal authorities and make sure utilities like pg & e spend their money and fixing these problems. liz: let's talk about the revolving door between the utilities and the former democrat governor jerry browns administration. what are your thoughts there? >> it's the swamp all over again. it happens in every industry, basically. people become lobbyists, then they go to work for the companies, then they go into politics. it's this revolving door.

california consumers take the brunt of the problem. we are paying the electricity rates twice what they are in the rest of the country. our housing crisis is only getting worse. the campfire that destroyed all those gnomes paradise has to be rebuilt, and the d those homes in paradise has to be rebuilt and the regulations are enormous. liz: thanks for coming on. at least 7 people now dead as historic arctic temperatures continue to blast the u.s. michigan, illinois, wisconsin declaring states of emergency. we have power outages across minneapolis leaving many without heat. people even warned not to risk breathing outside. and railroad ties set on fire to

keep them from breaking. >> i have got a cup of hot water in my hands. watch what happens when we throw it up in this frigid air. you get yourself instant snow. oftentimes when you get into weather like this you wind up with a lot of house fires. there was a fire on the southside of chicago. they can't link it to the cold. but the cold made the firefighting efforts extremely complicated. they had to rotate crews through warming trucks. sadly two people did perish. >> our companies did the best they could to get to the attic. these weather conditions make it

hard for us to do our job. reporter: in minnesota the department of transportation pulled the snow plows off their duties on the road baits was so cold the big rigs started breaking down. something to keep in mind. salt doesn't work in these temperatures. assume the roads are icy. better yet, heed the warnings. stay home and make eight netflix night. the skies are clear so there is nothing to hold any of the heat in. it will only get colder tonight and we have got one more day of this stuff. liz: we have more developing news at this hour. the world's largest iron-oorks re minerred called valet is threatening to shut down a mine

similar to the one in brazil. 18 tons of tysons chicken nuggets recalled. cvs and walgreens want to become a one-stop shop for all things medical. now it's testing dental care. you can see a dentist and even order braces for your your kids. super bowl sunday always few days away. pizza hut is giving away a free pizza a week for a year for having the first baby after the super bowl kickoff. we'll hear from a former mayor in venezuela who is on the run. we are talk mayor a mobile mu

>> [through the interpreter] we hope it will be as soon as possible. the support of the united states is important. and the other countries in the world that support us. we are sure we are starting the last chapter of change. and the last chapter of

nightmare for thousands of citizens who were forced to migrate and leave our country. and those who lost their lives because there was no power in the hospital. 70 people died because there was no power in the hospital. we are wake up to a dream of a prosperous venezuela. liz: that's trish regan's exclusive interview with opposition leader juan guaido. he's trying to get venezuela out of the living nightmare of a socialist regime killing and imprisoning its own. trish? >> it was news making. what stood out. he gave a warning shot to socialists when he said we took democracy for granted in venezuela. >> we can play that sound for the viewers.

basically they took it for granted and what do you know. hugo chavez ripped up the constitution. i say that, it's relevant. you think of beto o'rourke and jill brant brand is talk about changing elements of our constitution. it's fragile. he remind us of that. liz: $700 billion has been stolen out of the regime and 200 people thrown in prison, political prisoners. i think we have more sound from guaido coming. >> it never aired. we are saving it for you. this is important. trish: we have a wave of socialism in america right now. is it dangerous for us?

>> [through the interpreter] you can't underestimate the importance of dem contract i. the left inist governments, there was a lot of damage done. trish: i think it's a warning for all of us right now. there are those out there that think this is cool and this is where we should be heading. i think you have only to look at a country less than three hours from miami to see how socialism has played out the last 20 years. it's this idea of a utopian existence. but the reality is it doesn't exist. at some point corruption gets in there and these regimes ultimately all become corrupt when you don't have a democracy

and freedom and capitalism. liz: you make a great point of kamala harris talking about it, and ocasio-cortez. we have had polio outbreaks in vins. hitcvins. hiv is coming back. there are tweets about socialism being sexy. tris -- trish: he's clearly mistaken. he has no idea what it's like to not be able to feed your children. all these things that we do take for granted. they are part of our society. this is the freedom we so enjoy. if that goes away.

what are we left with? liz: what was your sense of juan guaido? is he in fir -- in fear for his life? trish: he admitted that. john bolton said if you are messing with him, you are messing with us. it's my sense he's incredibly brave. every single one of these people from incredibly brave. they are taking risks with their own lives. a former politician, his wife lillian has been on the show. i think you would be worried about them knocking on the door. any of these people out there doing something the administration doesn't like. by the way, tonight we have the

two daughters of one of the american hostages that was taken by nicolas maduro, elizabeth. this is the first time they are speaking out. and they are doing so because they are hopeful that a regime change will bring their dad home. liz: thanks so much for coming on. you have got to cash trish regan's show. you have got to watch that. great stuff. we'll hear what life in venezuela is like under the maduro regime from a person who lived through it. he's a former mayor of caracas. that story coming up. than anyone else in the world. on average, we'll live in eleven homes. and every time we move, things change.

liz: president trump announcing he spoke with juan guaido, the interim leader of venezuela. knew maduro says he wants to talk with trump. s.w.a.t. teams from the maduro

administration. they are pouring through the bare yoas in the poorest section of caracas. maduro's forces have killed at least 40 anti-maduro protesters. they imprisons 850, some as young as 12. joining me now is the former mayor of one of the wealthiest prosperous sections of caracas. he's ramon muchacho. are you in fear for your life? >> i was in venezuela. absolutely. my family and my liberty. when we are in politics against a regime like maduro, we are there in spite of the huge risk we run. we have friends in jail, we have friends in exile and friend

liker man dough who was killed, thrown off the third floor of a building by the political police of nicolas maduro. liz: what's your message to socialists in this country like ocasio-cortez. they wanted to change parts of the constitution. what's your message to them? >> i think the clearest and strongest message is being sent by hundreds of thousands of venezuelans who are walk across south america look for a place to stay and rebuild their lives. because socialism in venezuela brought poverty and destroyed an otherwise beautiful country. let me say this very clear. social democracy is something you may try. it may work. i don't know. but the real socialism. against free markets and the free economy and the rule of law

and private property. that there will never work. that will always produce everywhere in the world the thing it produced in cuba and venezuela and many years ago in the former soviet union. liz: we are hearing teenagers as young as 12 are being thrown in prison. >> i appreciate you are talking about something right now that's going on in venezuela. maduro's regime police are going after people imprisoning and torturing them and killing them. there were not only some deaths in the fight over protests three weeks ago. but after ward when everything was calming down the maduro police went to the bar yoas and took people and killed them --

it was a cold blood murder. and they are even killing minors as young as 12 years. while that happens, right now maduro is taking international reporters, journalists, people from the international media and persecuting them and taking them hostage. it's happening right now with people from chile, france and colombia as we speak. liz: europe is starting to stand up with the united states and say enough is enough. stop the humanitarian disaster that is venezuela. ways your message to those who say the trump administration is trying to initiate a coups and regime change. >> some countries have been

helping. but we should recognize it's the u.s., the one that has been in the right front doing the job. we are very thankful for all the effort they are doing. and it is the u.s. who can cut the flow of money to nicolas maduro. what we expect from europe is to do the same. recognize juan guaido immediately and impose sanctions on maduro's regime officers to not be able to bring money back and forth to venezuela. they are stealing venezuelan's money. liz: hundreds of millions from pdvsa has been taken out of venezuela. bernie sanders is doing a golf clap over your efforts to bring about democracy. what would you say to bernie sanders? >> we need not only the trump

administration. but also the democrats. this must be a bipartisan push. everybody should side with the venezuelan people with liberty and freedom. i will not be able to understand how somebody, a politician in a free country like the u.s. will not see this clearly. there is just one right side here to stand with. and our expectation is for the great people of the u.s. to stand with us for liberty and democracy. it's just as simple as that. liz: thank you so much. we'll be right back. stay right there. what if numbers tell only half the story? at t. rowe price, hundreds of our experts go beyond the numbers to examine investment opportunities firsthand. like a biotech firm that engineers a patient's own cells to fight cancer.

liz: hearings on single payer, being called medicare for all, really called single payer, will begin soon, democrats say. kamala harris is getting blowback from prominent democrats after declaring she would wipe out private insurance. senator dianne feinstein doesn't agree with it. howard schultz also going after her proposal. watch. >> i know a great deal about the health care issue, especially living as a kid who lost health insurance, and i provided it to my employees. to come out with a suggestion that we're going to eliminate, eradicate the insurance industry, is just, it's such --

it's so false, and it speaks to the level of politics that we now have. just yell something out, tweet it and all of a sudden that's going to be your position. it's not reasonable. it's not thoughtful. it's not truthful and it's what's wrong. liz: let's get reaction from steve hilton, home st of "the n revolution." your take on that? >> interesting, howard schultz is basically doing the republicans' job for them in taking apart these plans from the democrats. it's becoming the consensus position, medicare for all. it's so interesting how quickly it's shifted to the left. what howard schultz is doing is saying the democrats have gone too far left, have become too extreme. it seems every single day, democrats are proving him right. liz: you know, it's interesting, to your point, steve harris initially said it's inhumane to not have medicare for all, to not have government-run health care, then flip-flopped saying well, i didn't really mean to say that and her campaign even

forced a cnn reporter to delete an accurate tweet about what she initially said. what's your take on that, steve? >> well, it shows that they are actually not quite as slick an operation as you would -- as had been reported. there's been a lot of talk about how she's really got -- had that professional launch in oakland and is very much the head of the pack. this is a basic thing to get your policy nailed down, so i'm surprised to see them going wobbly on it at such an early stage. but there's something really underlying all this, i think it's important to bear in mind, which is just the idea that you are going to run a health system in this centralized way that you are going to have one centralized health care system for a vast country like america. it's so laughable, it's just completely ridiculous, and that point about centralization i think doesn't get made enough. yes, there's the cost. the ridiculousness of running it all -- liz: that's why california

rejected it. so did vermont and colorado. you're great. we are so grateful for you for coming on. thank you for coming on the show. thank you for having us in your homes. thank you for watching. "lou dobbs" is next here on the fox business network. have a good night. lou: good evening, everybody. we have a crisis on our southern border. thousands of central americans on their way up the center of mexico, trying to cross that border when they get there. the mexican drug cartels murdering tens of thousands of mexican citizens, running tens of billions of dollars of deadly drugs across that border into the united states each and every year. after waiting now for days, the bipartisan congressional senatorial conference committee finally graciously but not urgently decided to meet today for the first time to talk about rd
